Absolute ZigZagThis ZigZag Indicator is a bit unique in it's kind.
It uses my own Absolute ZigZag Lib to calculate the pivots:
Instead of using percentages or looking more than 1 bar left or right, this Zigzag library calculates pivots by just looking at the current bar highs and lows and the ones of one bar earlier. This is a very fast and accurate way of calculating pivots.
The library also features a solution for bars that have both a higher high and a higher low like seen below.
You can also use your own colors for the labels and the lines:
You can also quickly select a one-colored theme without changing all colors at once:

Tian Di Grid Merge Version 6.0
Strategy Introduction:
1. We know that the exchange can only set a maximum of 100 grids. However, our grid strategy can set a maximum of 350 grids.
2. We have added the modes of proportional and differential warehousing.
3. It should be noted that we have not set any filtering conditions, which means that when the price falls below the grid, we will execute a buy action at the closing price, and when the price falls above the grid, we will execute a sell action;
4. We suggest limiting the trading time cycle to 5 meters, as sometimes errors may appear on TV due to the dense grid or the inability to draw so many grids;
5. Please ensure that the minimum spacing between each grid is not less than 0.1%, as this is extremely difficult to profit from, and on the other hand, it may not function due to excessively dense spacing;
6. The maximum number of grids is 350, and the minimum number is currently 3;
matters needing attention:
Don't choose to go long or short together, and don't choose to go even short or short;
Closing position setting: It is recommended to select it to avoid order accumulation;
Unable to trade: If unable to trade normally, switch to a 1m cycle;
Number of cells: Calculate it yourself, 350 is just the maximum number of cells that can be adjusted;
Grid spacing: minimum 0.1%, below which no profit can be made;
Position value: default is 100u, which is the amount already leveraged;
Multiple investment: The order amount for each order is the same, and there is no need for multiple investment;
Open both long and short positions: You can open multiple positions for one account and open one position for one account. Do not open both long and short positions for the same target at the same time
Pressure Zones with MA [SYNC & TRADE]Description:
The "Pressure Zones with MA " indicator is designed to analyze the pressure of buyers and sellers on the market, as well as to identify areas of increased activity. When designing it, the main task was to see manipulations on the market, when the power of sellers or the power of buyers is in a sideways trend or falling, and the opposite is growing.
Here is a good example. The power of sellers is in a narrow sideways trend, and sales are increasing very aggressively. The power of buyers is in a gray block with the inscription "range". Then we see the fading of the power of sellers and buyers furiously pounce on the asset that has fallen in price.
Here are the main aspects of its operation and use:
First, turn off the moving averages in the indicator settings, on the "style" tab. Choose your favorite asset, which you understand well and know all its ups and downs. I want you to see a clean chart, so that you can be imbued with a new idea, you need to watch it. This is a proprietary indicator and I understand that it does not have the inscription “buy” / “sell”, but believe me, if you pay attention, you will see its strength. I usually add functionality later, but the light code and visualization remain preferable in the first version.
Purpose:
The indicator helps to determine the strength of buyers and sellers in the market.
It visualizes zones where the pressure of buyers or sellers prevails.
Additionally displays moving averages (MA) for data smoothing.
Main components:
Buyer strength chart (blue line)
Seller strength chart (red line)
Moving averages for buyer and seller strength
Threshold line for defining zones
Indicator settings:
Period: defines the base period for calculations (default 89)
Threshold: sets the level for defining pressure zones (from 0 to 2, default 0.8)
MA type for purchases and sales: select the type of moving average (SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA)
MA length for purchases and sales: period for calculating moving averages
Colors for uptrends and downtrends of MA
Moving averages:
Help smooth out data and identify trends
The direction of the MA (up or down) further confirms the current trend
The color of the MA changes depending on the direction (blue for up, red for down)
Now you can turn them on and see how they help in understanding where one or another force is weakening. It is in this case that we see the intersection of forces and the sellers' force is moving aggressively upward. Also, according to the moving average, we see the weakening of the sellers' force. The buyers' force was in the sideways range and then switched on to buy out and also according to the moving average, it is clear where the main interest in purchases disappeared.
Use:
Observe the strength of buyers and sellers relative to each other. They can move simultaneously in one direction, this is regarded as balance
can move in different directions and this will strengthen the upward force of sellers or buyers
You may also notice that the movement of one of the forces will be in a narrow range and the second will grow strongly - this is manipulation or trading without resistance.
You can also play with the threshold line, but it is not the main thing here. I disabled this function in the code.
// Display zones
//bgcolor(buy_zone ? color.new(color.blue, 90) : na)
//bgcolor(sell_zone ? color.new(color.red, 90) : na)
If you want to enable it, copy it instead
// Display zones
bgcolor(buy_zone ? color.new(color.blue, 90) : na)
bgcolor(sell_zone ? color.new(color.red, 90) : na)
Pay attention to the intersection of forces.
Use crossovers of force lines and their moving averages as potential signals
Combine the indicator signals with other technical analysis tools for confirmation
Limitations:
Requires customization of parameters for a specific trading instrument and timeframe
The indicator should not be used as the only tool for making trading decisions
Remember that this indicator provides additional information for market analysis, but is not a guarantee of successful trades. Always combine it with other analysis methods and follow risk management rules.
Описание:
Индикатор "Pressure Zones with MA " предназначен для анализа давления покупателей и продавцов на рынке, а также для определения зон повышенной активности. При его проектировании основная задача была увидеть манипуляции на рынке, когда сила продавцов или сила покупателей стоит в боковике или падает, а противоположная растет.
Вот хороший пример. Сила продавцов стоит в узком боковике, а продажи очень агрессивно усиливаются. Сила покупателей в сером блоке с надписью “range”. Потом мы видим затухание силы продавцов и покупателей яростно накидываются на подешевевший актив.
Вот основные аспекты его работы и использования:
Для начала отключите средние скользящие в настройках индикатора, на закладке “стиль”. Выберите свой любимый актив, в котором вы хорошо разбираетесь и знаете его все взлеты и падения. Я хочу чтобы вы увидели чистый график, для того чтобы вы могли проникнутся новой идеей нужно понаблюдать за ним. Это авторский индикатор и я понимаю что на нем нет надписи “купить” / “продать”, но поверьте уделив свое внимание вы увидите его силу. Я обычно потом добавляю функционал но легкий код и визуализация, в первом варианте остается предпочтительней.
Назначение:
Индикатор помогает определить силу покупателей и продавцов на рынке.
Он визуализирует зоны, где преобладает давление покупателей или продавцов.
Дополнительно отображает скользящие средние (MA) для сглаживания данных.
Основные компоненты:
График силы покупателей (синяя линия)
График силы продавцов (красная линия)
Скользящие средние для силы покупателей и продавцов
Пороговая линия для определения зон
Настройки индикатора:
Период (Period): определяет базовый период для расчетов (по умолчанию 89)
Порог (Threshold): устанавливает уровень для определения зон давления (от 0 до 2, по умолчанию 0.8)
Тип MA для покупок и продаж: выбор типа скользящей средней (SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA)
Длина MA для покупок и продаж: период для расчета скользящих средних
Цвета для восходящего и нисходящего трендов MA
Скользящие средние:
Помогают сглаживать данные и выявлять тренды
Направление MA (вверх или вниз) дополнительно подтверждает текущий тренд
Цвет MA меняется в зависимости от направления (синий для восходящего, красный для нисходящего)
Теперь вы можете их включить и посмотреть как они помогают в понимании где ослабевает та или иная сила. Именно в этом случае мы видим пересечение сил и сила продавцов идет агрессивно вверх. Также по средней скользящей мы видим затухание силы продавцов. Сила покупателей стояла в боковике потом включилась на откуп и также по средней скользящей видно где пропал основной интерес к покупкам.
Использование:
Наблюдайте за силой покупателей и продавцов относительно друг друга. Они могут двигаться одновременно в одном направлении это расценивается как баланс
могут двигаться в разных направлениях и это будет усиливать восходящую силу продавцов или покупателей
также возможно вы заметите что движение одной из силы будет в узком диапазоне а вторая будет сильно расти - это манипуляция или торговля без сопротивления.
Также можете поиграть с пороговой линией, но она совершенно не главная здесь. В коде я отключил эту функцию.
// Display zones
//bgcolor(buy_zone ? color.new(color.blue, 90) : na)
//bgcolor(sell_zone ? color.new(color.red, 90) : na)
Если захотите включить скопируйте вместо нее
// Display zones
bgcolor(buy_zone ? color.new(color.blue, 90) : na)
bgcolor(sell_zone ? color.new(color.red, 90) : na)
Обращайте внимание на пересечение сил.
Используйте пересечения линий силы и их скользящих средних как потенциальные сигналы
Комбинируйте сигналы индикатора с другими инструментами технического анализа для подтверждения
Ограничения:
Требуется настройка параметров под конкретный торговый инструмент и таймфрейм
Не следует использовать индикатор как единственный инструмент для принятия торговых решений
Помните, что этот индикатор предоставляет дополнительную информацию для анализа рынка, но не является гарантией успешных сделок. Всегда сочетайте его с другими методами анализа и соблюдайте правила управления рисками.
VWAP SlopePublishing one of the simplest yet one of my favorite concepts. Had to publish since I didn't really find any script for this on TV.
VWAP slope.
This is nothing fancy because it's just calculating "slope" with a very basic level formula
vwap_slope = (vwap - vwap ) / length
Above zero line, it's positive zone.
Below zero line, it's a negative zone.
The idea is to avoid choppy conditions and stay true to larger readings, sometimes when we have vwap directly on chart and when price interacts with it, we tend to take the lot of bad trades.
The intention here is to avoid just that.
This is also good at tracking failure of change in sentiments, this failure is very important, because one's failure occurs there is significant movement in the opposite direction of the failure.
Since there isn't much alteration to this idea, there is not much to talk about tbh.
Just remember, this is an educational idea and not assurance of future performance.
Regards.

1% Range Bars with Sequence TableOverall Logic :
The script is designed to help traders visualize and analyze price movements on the chart, where each 1% movement is highlighted with a corresponding symbol. Additionally, the table helps track and analyze the number and length of consecutive price movements in one direction, which can be useful for identifying trends and understanding market dynamics.
This script can be particularly useful for traders looking for recurring patterns in price movements and wanting to quickly identify significant changes on the chart.
Main elements of the script :
Price Percentage Change:
The script tracks the price movement by 1% from the last significant value (the value at which the last 1% change was recorded).
If the price rises by 1% or more, a green circle is displayed above the bar.
If the price drops by 1% or more, a red circle is displayed below the bar.
Sequence Counting:
The script counts the number of consecutive 1% moves upwards (green circles) and downwards (red circles).
Separate counters are maintained for upward and downward movements, increasing each time the respective movement occurs.
If an opposite movement interrupts the sequence, the counter for the opposite direction is reset.
Sequence Table:
A table displayed on the chart shows the number of sequences of 1% movements in one direction for lengths from 1 to 15 bars.
The table is updated in real-time and shows how many times sequences of a certain length occurred on the chart, where the price moved by 1% in one direction.
VPSA - Volume Price Spread AnalysisDear Analysts and Traders,
I am pleased to present the latest version of my indicator, based on the logic of analyzing spread and volume. In this version, the indicator examines spread and volume using min-max normalization. The statistical value is captured through Z-Score standardization, and I have added configurable alerts based on the normalized values of spread, volume, and the sigmas for these variables.
Theory and Evolution of the Indicator
The normalization function used in this program allows for the comparison of two values with different ranges on a single chart. The values that reach the highest within the examined range are assigned a value of one. As in previous versions, I have adopted a bar chart where the wider bar represents volume and the narrower bar represents spread. I believe that using normalization is the most intuitive approach, as the standardization in the earlier sVPSA version could cause confusion. This was due to smaller bars for higher actual values and negative bars, which required additional reliance on actual volume data and significant proficiency in using the indicator. These were limitations stemming from the computational aspect of these issues. As in the previously mentioned script, I also used Z-Score standardization here, which serves as a measure of deviation from the mean. This is visualized in the script as the color of the bars, which in the default configuration are as follows: below one sigma - blue; above one sigma up to two sigmas - green; above two sigmas up to three sigmas - red; and above three sigmas - fuchsia. Additionally, I applied an exponential moving average in this indicator to minimize the influence of older candles on the mean. The indicator has been enhanced with configurable alerts, allowing for substantial control over the conditions triggering them. The alerts enable the definition of normalized variable values and sigma values. Furthermore, the program allows for the definition of logical dependencies for these conditions.
Summary
The program I have developed is a synthesis of the most important and useful functions from the indicators I previously created. The indicator is a standalone and powerful tool that facilitates effective analysis of the spread-volume relationship, which is one of the fundamental methods of analysis according to the Wyckoff and VSA methodologies. The alerts introduced in this version provide extensive possibilities for controlling the dynamics of any market.
Should you encounter any errors or have suggestions regarding the indicator, please feel free to contact me.
I wish you successful analyses! All the best!

#### Introduction to the Indicator
The "Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator" is an advanced yet user-friendly technical analysis tool designed to help traders across all levels of experience identify and follow market trends with precision. This indicator builds upon the fundamental principles of the Simple Moving Average (SMA), a cornerstone of technical analysis, to deliver a clear, visually intuitive overlay on the price chart. Through its strategic use of color-coding and customizable parameters, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator provides traders with actionable insights into market dynamics, enhancing their ability to make informed trading decisions.
#### Core Concepts and Methodology
1. **Foundational Principle – Simple Moving Average (SMA):**
- The Simple Moving Average (SMA) is the heart of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator. The SMA is a widely-used technical indicator that calculates the average price of an asset over a specified number of periods. By smoothing out price data, the SMA helps to reduce the noise from short-term fluctuations, providing a clearer picture of the overall trend.
- In the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, two SMAs are employed:
- **Primary SMA (oscValue):** This is applied to the closing price of the asset over a user-defined period (default is 14 periods). This SMA tracks the price closely and is sensitive to changes in market direction.
- **Smoothing SMA (oscV):** This second SMA is applied to the primary SMA, further smoothing the data and helping to filter out minor price movements that might otherwise be mistaken for trend reversals. The default period for this smoothing is 50, but it can be adjusted to suit the trader's preference.
2. **Color-Coding for Trend Visualization:**
- One of the most distinctive features of this indicator is its use of color to represent market trends. The indicator’s line changes color based on the relationship between the primary SMA and the smoothing SMA:
- **Bullish (Green):** The line turns green when the primary SMA is equal to or greater than the smoothing SMA, indicating that the market is in an upward trend.
- **Bearish (Red):** Conversely, the line turns red when the primary SMA falls below the smoothing SMA, signaling a downward trend.
- This color-coded system provides traders with an immediate, easy-to-interpret visual cue about the market’s direction, allowing for quick decision-making.
#### Detailed Explanation of Inputs
1. **Bullish Color (Default: Green #00ff00):**
- This input allows traders to customize the color that represents bullish trends on the chart. The default setting is green, a color commonly associated with upward market movement. However, traders can adjust this to any color that suits their visual preferences or matches their overall chart theme.
2. **Bearish Color (Default: Red RGB: 245, 0, 0):**
- The bearish color input determines the color of the line when the market is trending downwards. The default setting is a vivid red, signaling caution or selling opportunities. Like the bullish color, this can be customized to fit the trader’s needs.
3. **Line Thickness (Default: 5):**
- This setting controls the thickness of the line plotted by the indicator. The default thickness of 5 makes the line prominent on the chart, ensuring that the trend is easily visible even in complex or crowded chart setups. Traders can adjust the thickness to make the line thinner or thicker, depending on their visual preferences.
4. **Primary SMA Period (Value 1 - Default: 14):**
- The primary SMA period defines how many periods (e.g., days, hours) are used to calculate the moving average based on the asset’s closing prices. The default period of 14 is a balanced setting that offers a good mix of responsiveness and stability, but traders can adjust this depending on their trading style:
- **Shorter Periods (e.g., 5-10):** These make the indicator more sensitive, capturing trends more quickly but also increasing the likelihood of reacting to short-term price fluctuations or "noise."
- **Longer Periods (e.g., 20-50):** These smooth the data more, providing a more stable trend line that is less prone to whipsaws but may be slower to respond to trend changes.
5. **Smoothing SMA Period (Value 2 - Default: 50):**
- The smoothing SMA period determines how much the primary SMA is smoothed. A longer smoothing period results in a more gradual, stable line that focuses on the broader trend. The default of 50 is designed to smooth out most of the short-term fluctuations while still being responsive enough to detect significant trend shifts.
- **Customization:**
- **Shorter Smoothing Periods (e.g., 20-30):** Make the indicator more responsive, better for fast-moving markets or for traders who want to capture quick trends.
- **Longer Smoothing Periods (e.g., 70-100):** Enhance stability, ideal for long-term traders looking to avoid reacting to minor price movements.
#### Unique Characteristics and Advantages
1. **Simplicity and Clarity:**
- The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator’s design prioritizes simplicity without sacrificing effectiveness. By relying on the widely understood SMA, it avoids the complexity of more esoteric indicators while still providing reliable trend signals. This simplicity makes it accessible to traders of all levels, from novices who are just learning about technical analysis to experienced traders looking for a straightforward, dependable tool.
2. **Visual Feedback Mechanism:**
- The indicator’s use of color to signify market trends is a particularly powerful feature. This visual feedback mechanism allows traders to assess market conditions at a glance.

3. **Adaptability Across Markets and Timeframes:**
- One of the strengths of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator is its versatility. The basic principles of moving averages apply equally well across different asset classes and timeframes. Whether trading stocks, forex, commodities, or cryptocurrencies, traders can use this indicator to gain insights into market trends.
- **Intraday Trading:** For day traders who operate on short timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 5-minute charts), the oscillator can be adjusted to be more responsive, capturing quick shifts in momentum.
- **Swing Trading:** Swing traders, who typically hold positions for several days to weeks, will find the default settings or slightly adjusted periods ideal for identifying and riding medium-term trends.
- **Long-Term Trading:** Position traders and investors can adjust the indicator to focus on long-term trends by increasing the periods for both the primary and smoothing SMAs, filtering out minor fluctuations and highlighting sustained market movements.
4. **Minimal Lag:**
- One of the challenges with moving averages is lag—the delay between when the price changes and when the indicator reflects this change. The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator addresses this by allowing traders to adjust the periods to find a balance between responsiveness and stability. While all SMAs inherently have some lag, the customizable nature of this indicator helps traders mitigate this effect to align with their specific trading goals.
5. **Customizable and Intuitive:**
- While many technical indicators come with a fixed set of parameters, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator is fully customizable, allowing traders to tailor it to their trading style, market conditions, and personal preferences. This makes it a highly flexible tool that can be adjusted as markets evolve or as a trader’s strategy changes over time.
#### Practical Applications for Different Trader Profiles
1. **Day Traders:**
- **Use Case:** Day traders can customize the SMA periods to create a faster, more responsive indicator. This allows them to capture short-term trends and make quick decisions. For example, reducing the primary SMA to 5 and the smoothing SMA to 20 can help day traders react promptly to intraday price movements.
- **Strategy Integration:** Day traders might use the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator in conjunction with volume-based indicators to confirm the strength of a trend before entering or exiting trades.
2. **Swing Traders:**

#### Combining the Indicator with Other Tools
1. **Relative Strength Index (RSI):**
- The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. When combined with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, traders can look for instances where the RSI shows divergence from the price while the oscillator confirms the trend. This can be a powerful signal of an impending reversal or continuation.
2. **Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD):**
- The MACD is another popular trend-following momentum indicator. By using it alongside the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, traders can confirm the strength of a trend and identify potential entry and exit points with greater confidence. For example, a bullish crossover on the MACD that coincides with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator turning green can be a strong buy signal.
3. **Volume Indicators:**
- Volume is often considered the fuel behind price movements. Using volume indicators like the On-Balance Volume (OBV) or Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) in conjunction with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator can help traders confirm the validity of a trend. A trend identified by the oscillator that is supported by increasing volume is typically more reliable.
4. **Fibonacci Retracement:**
- Fibonacci retracement levels are used to identify potential reversal levels in a trending market. When the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator indicates a trend, traders can use Fibonacci retracement levels to find potential entry points that align with the broader trend direction.
#### Implementation in Different Market Conditions
1. **Trending Markets:**
- The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator excels in trending markets, where it provides clear signals on the direction of the trend. In a strong uptrend, the line will remain green, helping traders stay in the trade for longer periods. In a downtrend, the red line will signal the continuation of bearish conditions, prompting traders to stay short or avoid long positions.
2. **Sideways or Range-Bound Markets:**
- In range-bound markets, where price oscillates within a confined range without a clear trend, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator may produce more frequent changes in color. While this could indicate potential reversals at the range boundaries, traders should be cautious of false signals. It may be beneficial to pair the oscillator with a volatility indicator to better navigate such conditions.
3. **Volatile Markets:**
- In highly volatile markets, where prices can swing rapidly, the sensitivity of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator can be adjusted by modifying the SMA periods. A shorter SMA period might capture quick trends, but traders should be aware of the increased risk of whipsaws. Combining the oscillator with a volatility filter or using it in a higher time frame might help mitigate some of this risk.

TASC 2024.09 Precision Trend Analysis█ OVERVIEW
This script introduces an approach for detecting and confirming trends in price series based on digital signal processing principles, as presented by John Ehlers in the "Precision Trend Analysis" article from the September 2024 edition of TASC's Traders' Tips .
█ CONCEPTS
Traditional trend-following indicators, such as moving averages , are lowpass filters that pass low-frequency components in a series and remove high-frequency components. Because lowpass filters preserve lengthy cycles in the data while attenuating shorter cycles, such filters have unavoidable lag that impacts the timeliness of trading signals.
In his article, John Ehlers presents an alternative approach that combines two highpass filters with different lengths to remove undesired high-frequency content via cancellation . Highpass filters have nearly zero lag. As such, the resulting trend indicator from this approach is very responsive to changes in the price series, with peaks and valleys that closely align with those of the price data. The indicator signifies an uptrend when its value is positive (i.e., above the balance point) and a downtrend when it is negative.
Subsequently, John Ehlers demonstrates that one can use the trend indicator's rate of change (ROC) to determine the onset of new trend movements. The ROC is zero at peaks and valleys in the trend indicator. Therefore, when the ROC crosses above zero, it signifies the onset or continuation of an uptrend. Likewise, the ROC crossing below zero indicates the onset or continuation of a downtrend. Note, however, that because the ROC does not preserve lower-frequency information, it can produce whipsaw trading signals in sideways or continuously trending price series.
This script implements both the trend indicator and its ROC along with the following on-chart signals:
• Green and red arrows that indicate the possible onset or continuation of an uptrend and downtrend, respectively
• Bar and plot colors that signify the sign (direction) of the trend indicator
█ CALCULATIONS
The math behind the trend indicator comes from digital filter design principles. The first step applies a digital highpass filter that attenuates long cycles with periods above the user-specified critical period. The default value is 250 bars, representing roughly one year for instruments such as stocks on the daily timeframe. The next step applies a highpass filter with a shorter period (40 bars by default). The difference between these filters determines the trend indicator, which preserves cyclic components between 40 and 250 bars by default while attenuating and eliminating others. The ROC represents the scaled one-bar difference in the trend indicator.
False Breakouts [TradingFinder] Fake Breakouts Failure🔵 Introduction
Technical indicators are essential tools for analysts and traders in financial markets, helping them predict price movements and make better trading decisions. One of the key concepts in technical analysis that should be carefully considered is the "False Breakout."
This phenomenon occurs when a price temporarily breaks through a significant support or resistance level but fails to hold and quickly returns to its previous range. Understanding this concept and applying it in trading can reduce risks and increase profitability.
🟣 What is a False Breakout?
A Fake Breakout, as the name suggests, refers to a breakout that appears to occur but fails to sustain, leading the price to quickly revert back to its previous range. This situation often happens when inexperienced or non-professional traders, under psychological pressure and eager to enter the market quickly, initiate trades.
This creates opportunities for professional traders to take advantage of these short-term fluctuations and execute successful trades.
🟣 The Importance of Recognizing False Breakouts
Recognizing False Breakouts is crucial for any trader aiming for success in financial markets. False Breakouts typically occur when the market approaches a critical support or resistance level.
In these situations, many traders are waiting to see if the price will break through this level. However, when the price quickly returns to its previous range, it indicates weakness in the movement and the inability to sustain the breakout.
🟣 How to identify False Breakouts?
To identify Fake Breakouts, it is important to carefully analyze price charts and look for signs of a quick price reversal after breaking a key level.
Here are some chart patterns that may help you identify a False Breakout :
1. Pin Bar Pattern : The Pin Bar is a candlestick pattern that indicates a price reversal. This pattern usually appears near support and resistance levels, showing that the price attempted to break through a key level but failed and reversed.
2. Fakey Pattern : This pattern, which consists of several candlesticks, indicates a False Breakout and a quick price return to the previous range. It usually appears near key levels and can signal a trend reversal.
3. Using Multiple Timeframes : One way to identify False Breakouts is by using charts of different timeframes. Sometimes, a breakout on a one-hour chart may be a False Breakout on a daily chart. Analyzing charts across multiple timeframes can help you accurately identify this phenomenon.
🔵 How to Use
Once you identify a False Breakout, you can use it as a trading signal. For this, it is best to look for trading opportunities in the opposite direction of the False Breakout. In other words, if a False Breakout occurs at a resistance level, you might consider selling opportunities, and if it happens at a support level, you might look for buying opportunities.
Here are some key points for trading based on False Breakouts :
1. Patience and Discipline : Patience and discipline are crucial when trading with False Breakouts. Wait for the False Breakout to clearly form before entering a trade.
2. Use Stop Loss : Setting an appropriate stop loss is vital when trading based on False Breakouts. Typically, the stop loss can be placed near the level where the False Breakout occurred.
3. Seek Confirmations : Before entering a trade, look for additional confirmations. These can include other analyses or technical indicators that show the price is likely to return to its previous level.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Logical settings
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Bac k: You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
🟣 Display settings
Displaying or not displaying swings and setting the color of labels and lines.
🟣 Alert Settings
Alert False Breakout : Enables alerts for Breakout.
Message Frequency : Determines the frequency of alerts. Options include 'All' (every function call), 'Once Per Bar' (first call within the bar), and 'Once Per Bar Close' (final script execution of the real-time bar). Default is 'Once per Bar'.
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : Configures the time zone for alert messages. Default is 'UTC'.
🔵Conclusion
False Breakouts, as a key concept in technical analysis, are powerful tools for identifying sudden price changes and using them in trading. Understanding this phenomenon and applying it can help traders perform better in financial markets and avoid potential losses.
To benefit from False Breakouts, traders need to carefully analyze charts and use the appropriate analytical tools. By leveraging this strategy, traders can achieve lower-risk and higher-reward trades.
Range supply and demandHi all!
This is a very simple indicator. It plots the high timeframe (configurable via the "Timeframe" setting) high/low current timeframe bars (that has the same high/low as the higher timeframe) as supply/demand. The higher timeframe bar that's chosen is the one that's next last. As of now one high and one low zone is plotted.
The defaults are based on useful zones when on daily candles.
You can choose to display the higher timeframe within the zone via the "Show" option.
Hope this is clear enough, let me know otherwise.
Best of luck trading!
RSI-based MACDThe RSI is one of the most popular indicators available. This indicator, which represents the strength of market momentum based on the gains and losses over the past 14 candlesticks, is rational and is mainly used as an oscillator to determine overbought or oversold conditions. However, because the RSI is an older indicator, its very simple design—displaying only a single line on the graph—may feel somewhat lacking in functionality to modern traders. The main issue is that there is no objective measure to determine whether the RSI is currently rising or falling.
That’s when I came up with the idea of calculating the MACD based on the smoothed values of the RSI. As is well known, the MACD is an indicator that represents the distance between moving averages, designed to show when the moving averages cross as the value falls below zero. By observing the golden crosses and death crosses of the MACD and signal line, one can anticipate the golden and death crosses of the moving averages. Applying the same logic, I thought that calculating the MACD based on RSI values would allow us to predict the rise and fall of the RSI by observing these golden and death crosses.
Currently, the RSI is often used as a contrarian indicator to determine overbought and oversold conditions, but with this approach, I believe the RSI can instead function extremely well as a trend-following indicator. Whenever an uptrend occurs, the RSI inevitably rises, and when a downtrend occurs, the RSI inevitably falls. Therefore, by predicting the rise and fall of the RSI, it becomes possible to forecast what kind of trend is likely to develop.
In this indicator, the MACD calculated from the RSI is displayed, with the original RSI line plotted above it. Since the scales of the RSI and MACD are different, I originally wanted to provide a separate scale for the RSI on the left side. However, due to TradingView’s limitations, it seems quite difficult to display more than one scale in a single panel, so I had to give up on that. Instead, I ask that you mentally multiply the RSI values displayed on the right by 10—for example, 2.11 indicates 21.1%.
Additionally, as a bonus, I’ve included a feature that detects divergences. With these features, I believe this has become the most useful indicator when compared to existing RSI-based indicators. I hope you find it helpful in your trading.
Delta Flow Profile [LuxAlgo]The Delta Flow Profile is a charting tool that tracks and visualizes money flow and the difference between buying and selling pressure accumulated within multiple price ranges over a specified period. It reveals the relationship between an asset's price and traders' willingness to buy or sell, helping traders identify significant price levels and analyze market activity.
The Normalized Profile displays the percentage of money flow at each price level relative to the maximum money flow level, enabling traders to easily compare levels and understand the relative importance of each price point in the context of overall trading activity.
🔶 USAGE
The Delta Flow Profile is made of two principal components with different usability, each one of them described in the sub-sections below.
🔹 Money Flow Profile
The Money Flow Profile illustrates the total buying and selling activity at different price ranges. By analyzing this profile, users can identify key price zones with substantial buying or selling pressure. These zones can often act as potential support or resistance.
The rows of the Money Flow Profile represent the trading activity at specific price ranges over a given period.
A normalized profile is included to compare each zone relative to the peak money flow using a percentage, with 100% indicating that a price range is the one with the highest accumulated money flow.
🔹 Delta Profile
The Delta Profile assesses the dominant sentiment (buying or selling) from volume delta at different price levels to gauge market sentiment and potential reversals.
Delta Profile rows with more significant buying or selling volume indicate dominance from one side of the market in that specific price area. Price coming back to that area might indicate willingness from a dominant side to further accumulate orders within it, potentially causing price to follow the direction established by this dominant side afterward.
The volume delta is determined from the user-selected Polarity Method, with "Bar Polarity" using candle sentiment to determine if a bar associated volume is buying or selling volume, and "Bar Buying/Selling Pressure" making use of the high/low price to obtain more precise results.
🔹 Level of Significance
Users can quickly highlight the price levels with the highest recorded money flow activity through the included "Level of Significance". Various display methods are included:
Developing: Show the price level with the highest recorded money flow activity spanning over the indicator calculation interval.
Level: Show the price level with the highest recorded money flow activity.
Row: Show the price zone with the highest recorded money flow activity.
These levels/zones can be used as potential support/resistance points and can serve as a reference of where prices might go next for market participants to accumulate orders.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script offers a range of customizable settings to tailor the analysis to your trading needs.
🔹 Calculation Settings
Money Flow Profile: Toggles the visibility of the Money Flow Profile.
Normalized: Toggles the visibility of the Normalized Profile.
Sentiment Profile: Toggles the visibility of the Sentiment Profile.
Polarity Method: Choose between Bar Polarity or Bar Buying/Selling Pressure to calculate the Sentiment Profile.
Level of Significance: Toggles the visibility of the level of significance line/zone.
Lookback Length / Fixed Range: Sets the lookback length.
Number of Rows: Specify how many rows each profile histogram will have.
🔹 Display Settings
Profile Width %: Alters the width of the rows in the histogram, relative to the profile length.
Profile Horizontal Offset: Enables moving the profile on the horizontal axis.
Profile Text: Toggles the visibility of profile texts, and alters the size of the text. Setting to Auto will keep the text within the box limits.
Currency: Extends the profile text with the traded currency.
Profile Price Levels: Toggles the visibility of the profile price levels.

ArbitrageDashboardv3310824This indicator allows you to monitor the spread (difference in exchange rates) between two assets in real-time for up to 12 trading pairs simultaneously.
⚙️ How does the indicator work?
In the settings menu, you can select two trading pairs, such as BTCUSDT on Binance and BTCUSDT on Bybit. The script then fetches prices from both exchanges and compares them, calculating the percentage difference (spread). This process is repeated for all 12 trading pairs added in the settings. The script works only with the assets and exchanges available on TradingView.
⚡️ How to use it?
When the spread is negative, it means the asset's price on the first exchange is lower than on the second. By buying on the first exchange and selling on the second, you can make a profit (taking into account the exchange fees). When the spread is positive, the opposite is true. The buy prices and exchanges are shown in a green Buy row, while sell prices and exchanges are displayed in a red Sell row. If the spread is zero, prices are the same on both exchanges, and no arbitrage opportunity exists. For better accuracy, use the smallest timeframe available in your TradingView subscription, such as minute or second intervals.
🕒 Arbitrage Situation Counter
For each trading pair, the table below the Buy row shows the number of arbitrage situations within a specified timeframe. An arbitrage situation occurs when the spread exceeds the Signal Threshold Level set by the user. Each time this happens, the counter increases by one. It only counts situations that occurred within the selected timeframe, such as the past hour for a 1-hour period. You can track arbitrage situations for up to three different periods simultaneously, ranging from 5 minutes to 24 hours. This counter helps evaluate the potential for arbitrage in the selected trading pairs. If a pair shows only 1-2 arbitrage situations per hour, it might be better to look for another pair.
🔔 Setting Up Alerts
In the script settings, you can set the Spread Signal Threshold. When the spread reaches this level, the table for that asset will be highlighted. This threshold also acts as a signal for setting up alerts. To set alerts, go to the Alerts tab in the TradingView menu on the right, click "Create Alert", and select this indicator under "Condition". You can then name the alert and finish the setup by clicking "Create".
We, the authors, have long been involved in cryptocurrency arbitrage and created this script for our own trading, but you can use it for any assets and markets as you see fit.
We also offer lighter versions of the indicator that track the spread for one or three trading pairs. These versions also display the spread chart, which can be useful for historical analysis. If the full indicator is too resource-intensive for your device, try these lighter versions:
🧩 Arbitrage Spread v1 : 1 pair + 1 chart
🧩 Arbitrage Spread v2 : 3 pairs + 3 charts
If your hardware can handle it, you can use the 12-pair version as a dashboard and add one of the versions with a spread chart for a detailed view of one or three pairs.

Этот индикатор позволяет в реальном времени отслеживать изменение спреда (разницы в цене) между двумя активами для 12 торговых пар одновременно.
⚙️ Как работает индикатор?
В меню настроек индикатора пользователь выбирает две торговые пары, например BTCUSDT на бирже Binance и BTCUSDT на бирже Bybit. Скрипт получает цены с обеих бирж и сравнивает их, рассчитывая процентное отклонение (спред). Этот процесс выполняется для всех 12 торговых пар, указанных в настройках. Скрипт работает только с теми активами и биржами, которые доступны на TradingView.
⚡️ Как использовать?
Когда спред отрицательный, это означает, что цена на первый актив ниже, чем на второй. В таком случае можно купить актив на первой бирже и продать на второй, получив прибыль (не забывая учитывать биржевые комиссии). Когда спред положительный, ситуация обратная. Биржи и цены для покупки отображаются в зеленой строке Buy, а для продажи – в красной строке Sell. При нулевом спреде цены на обеих биржах одинаковы, и арбитражная ситуация отсутствует.
Для повышения точности индикатора используйте минимально доступный таймфрейм на TradingView – минутный или секундный.
🕒 Счетчик арбитражных ситуаций
По каждой торговой паре в таблице под строкой Buy отображается количество арбитражных ситуаций за определенный промежуток времени. Арбитражная ситуация возникает, когда спред превышает установленный пользователем сигнальный уровень (Signal Threshold Level). При каждом превышении этого уровня счетчик увеличивается на единицу. Счетчик учитывает арбитражные ситуации за определенный период, например, за последний час для 1-часового периода (1h). Можно отслеживать количество арбитражных ситуаций одновременно для трех временных периодов от 5 минут до суток.
Счетчик помогает оценить перспективность арбитража выбранных пар. Если за час на паре было всего 1-2 арбитражные ситуации, возможно, лучше поискать другую пару.
🔔 Настройка оповещений
В настройках скрипта можно задать пороговое значение спреда (Spread Signal Threshold). Когда спред достигнет этого уровня, таблица для данного актива будет подсвечена. Этот уровень также служит сигналом для настройки оповещений.
Для настройки оповещений откройте вкладку «Оповещения» в меню TradingView справа. Нажмите кнопку «Создать оповещение». В открывшемся окне в строке «Условие» выберите данный индикатор. Затем задайте название и завершите настройку, нажав кнопку «Создать».
Мы, авторы этого скрипта, давно занимаемся арбитражем криптовалют и создали его для себя, но вы можете использовать его для любых активов и на любых рынках по своему усмотрению.
У нас также есть более простая версия индикатора, которая отслеживает спред для одной или трех торговых пар. В этих версиях можно просматривать график самого спреда, что полезно для оценки его динамики. Если этот индикатор кажется вам или вашему устройству слишком тяжелым, вы можете воспользоваться облегченными версиями:
🧩 Arbitrage Spread v1 : 1 пара + 1 график
🧩 Arbitrage Spread v2 : 3 пары + 3 графика
Если ваше оборудование позволяет, вы можете добавить несколько индикаторов на экран. Например, использовать версию с 12 парами как дашборд, а одну из версий с графиком спреда для более детального анализа по одному или трем инструментам.

█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a close price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a close price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Historic Peaks and Troughs
The current, or most recent, peak and trough occurrences are referred to as occurrence zero. Previous peak and trough occurrences are referred to as historic and ordered numerically from right to left, with the most recent historic peak and trough occurrences being occurrence one.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Range
The range is simply the difference between the current peak and current trough prices, generally expressed in terms of points or pips.
Wave Cycles
A wave cycle is here defined as a complete two-part move between a swing high and a swing low, or a swing low and a swing high. The first swing high or swing low will set the course for the sequence of wave cycles that follow; for example a chart that begins with a swing low will form its first complete wave cycle upon the formation of the first complete swing high and vice versa.
Figure 1.
Retracement and Extension Ratios
Retracement and extension ratios are calculated by dividing the current range by the preceding range and multiplying the answer by 100. Retracement ratios are those that are equal to or below 100% of the preceding range and extension ratios are those that are above 100% of the preceding range.
Fibonacci Retracement and Extension Ratios
The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers, starting with 0 and 1. For example 0 + 1 = 1, 1 + 1 = 2, 1 + 2 = 3, and so on. Ultimately, we could go on forever but the first few numbers in the sequence are as follows: 0 , 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144.
The extension ratios are calculated by dividing each number in the sequence by the number preceding it. For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 2/1 = 2, 3/2 = 1.5, 5/3 = 1.6666..., 8/5 = 1.6, 13/8 = 1.625, 21/13 = 1.6153..., 34/21 = 1.6190..., 55/34 = 1.6176..., 89/55 = 1.6181..., 144/89 = 1.6179..., and so on. The retracement ratios are calculated by inverting this process and dividing each number in the sequence by the number proceeding it. For example 0/1 = 0, 1/1 = 1, 1/2 = 0.5, 2/3 = 0.666..., 3/5 = 0.6, 5/8 = 0.625, 8/13 = 0.6153..., 13/21 = 0.6190..., 21/34 = 0.6176..., 34/55 = 0.6181..., 55/89 = 0.6179..., 89/144 = 0.6180..., and so on.
Fibonacci ranges are typically drawn from left to right, with retracement levels representing ratios inside of the current range and extension levels representing ratios extended outside of the current range. If the current wave cycle ends on a swing low, the Fibonacci range is drawn from peak to trough. If the current wave cycle ends on a swing high the Fibonacci range is drawn from trough to peak.
Measurement Tolerances
Tolerance refers to the allowable variation or deviation from a specific value or dimension. It is the range within which a particular measurement is considered to be acceptable or accurate. I have applied this concept in my pattern detection logic and have set default tolerances where applicable, as perfect patterns are, needless to say, very rare.
Chart Patterns
Generally speaking price charts are nothing more than a series of swing highs and swing lows. When demand outweighs supply over a period of time prices swing higher and when supply outweighs demand over a period of time prices swing lower. These swing highs and swing lows can form patterns that offer insight into the prevailing supply and demand dynamics at play at the relevant moment in time.
‘Let us assume… that you the reader, are not a member of that mysterious inner circle known to the boardrooms as “the insiders”… But it is fairly certain that there are not nearly so many “insiders” as amateur trader supposes and… It is even more certain that insiders can be wrong… Any success they have, however, can be accomplished only by buying and selling… hey can do neither without altering the delicate poise of supply and demand that governs prices. Whatever they do is sooner or later reflected on the charts where you… can detect it. Or detect, at least, the way in which the supply-demand equation is being affected… So, you do not need to be an insider to ride with them frequently… prices move in trends. Some of those trends are straight, some are curved; some are brief and some are long and continued… produced in a series of action and reaction waves of great uniformity. Sooner or later, these trends change direction; they may reverse (as from up to down), or they may be interrupted by some sort of sideways movement and then, after a time, proceed again in their former direction… when a price trend is in the process of reversal… a characteristic area or pattern takes shape on the chart, which becomes recognisable as a reversal formation… Needless to say, the first and most important task of the technical chart analyst is to learn to know the important reversal formations and to judge what they may signify in terms of trading opportunities’ (Edwards & Magee, 1948).
This is as true today as it was when Edwards and Magee were writing in the first half of the last Century, study your patterns and make judgements for yourself about what their implications truly are on the markets and timeframes you are interested in trading.
Over the years, traders have come to discover a multitude of chart and candlestick patterns that are supposed to pertain information on future price movements. However, it is never so clear cut in practice and patterns that where once considered to be reversal patterns are now considered to be continuation patterns and vice versa. Bullish patterns can have bearish implications and bearish patterns can have bullish implications. As such, I would highly encourage you to do your own backtesting.
There is no denying that chart patterns exist, but their implications will vary from market to market and timeframe to timeframe. So it is down to you as an individual to study them and make decisions about how they may be used in a strategic sense.
Harmonic Patterns
The concept of harmonic patterns in trading was first introduced by H.M. Gartley in his book "Profits in the Stock Market", published in 1935. Gartley observed that markets have a tendency to move in repetitive patterns, and he identified several specific patterns that he believed could be used to predict future price movements. The bullish and bearish Gartley patterns are the oldest recognized harmonic patterns in trading and all the other harmonic patterns are modifications of the original Gartley patterns. Gartley patterns are fundamentally composed of 5 points, or 4 waves.
Since then, many other traders and analysts have built upon Gartley's work and developed their own variations of harmonic patterns. One such contributor is Larry Pesavento, who developed his own methods for measuring harmonic patterns using Fibonacci ratios. Pesavento has written several books on the subject of harmonic patterns and Fibonacci ratios in trading. Another notable contributor to harmonic patterns is Scott Carney, who developed his own approach to harmonic trading in the late 1990s and also popularised the use of Fibonacci ratios to measure harmonic patterns. Carney expanded on Gartley's work and also introduced several new harmonic patterns, such as the Shark pattern and the 5-0 pattern.
█ INPUTS
• Change pattern and label colours
• Show or hide patterns individually
• Adjust pattern tolerances
• Set or remove alerts for individual patterns
█ NOTES
You can test the patterns with your own strategies manually by applying the indicator to your chart while in bar replay mode and playing through the history. You could also automate this process with PineScript by using the conditions from my swing and pattern libraries as entry conditions in the strategy tester or your own custom made strategy screener.
█ LIMITATIONS
All green and red candle calculations are based on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. This may cause some unexpected behaviour on some markets and timeframes. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with.

Higher Timeframe Open High Low ClosePURPOSE
1. Multi-timeframe analysis (MTFA).
2. Better visualize intraday price action relative higher timeframe price action, and this is not limited to the current time frame or the higher time frame including current price movement.
3. Higher Timeframes provides an overview of the long-term trend (e.g., weekly or monthly charts).
4. Confirm trends occurring on more than one timeframe.
5. Improve choice of entry and exit points.
ORIGINALITY
1. Compare current lower time frame price movement to current or previous higher time frame movement. The user specifies in the settings the higher time frame (day, week, month, quarter, or year) and the associated price movement data, including OHLC, average prices, and moving average levels.
2. Previous time frames and all specified levels (OHLC, average prices, and moving averages) can be shifted together to overlay the current time frame. This allows analysis of lower/intraday price movement against that of any past higher time frames.
3. Use: In the settings, the current time frame (i.e., that including current price movement) 'count from current' is '0', a count of '1' would shift one higher level time frame such that the open date of that shifted time frame aligns with the open date of the current time frame. A count of '3' would shift three higher level time frames to align with the current."
4. Example: On the Wednesday July 24 intraday chart, overlay the daily OHLC, typical price, and 10-day EMA data occurring at the close of Wednesday July 17. This allows analyze current price movement against data from one week prior.
HIGHER TIMEFRAME DATA that can be PLOTTED and SHIFTED
1. Open, High, Low, Close.
2. Average prices: Median (HL/2), Typical (HLC/3), (Average OHLC/4), Body Median (OC/2), Weighted Close (HL2C/4), Biased 01 (HC/2 if Close > Open, else LC/2), Biased 02 (High if Close > HL/2, else Low), Biased 03 (High if Close > Open, else Low).
3. Moving averages with user specified source, length and type.
CVD with Moving Average (Trend Colors) [SYNC & TRADE]Yesterday I wrote a simple and easy code for the indicator "Cumulative Delta Volume with a moving average" using AI.
Introduction:
Delta is the difference between buys and sells. If there are more purchases, the delta is positive, if there are more sales, the delta is negative. We look at each candle separately on a particular time frame, which does not give us an overall picture over time.
Cumulative volume delta is in many ways an extension of volume delta, but it covers longer periods of time and provides different trading signals. Like the volume delta indicator, the Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator measures the relationship between buying and selling pressure, but does not focus on one specific candle (or other chart element), but rather gives a picture over time.
What did you want to get?
I have often seen that they tried to attach RSI and the Ichimoku cloud to the cumulative delta of volume, but I have never seen a cumulative delta of volume with a moving average. A moving average that takes data from the cumulative volume delta will be different from the moving average of the underlying asset. It has been noted that often at the intersection of the cumulative volume delta and the moving average, this is a more accurate signal to buy or sell than the same intersections for the underlying asset.
Initially, 5 moving averages were made with values of 21, 55, 89, 144 and 233, but I realized that this overloads the chart. It is easier to change the length of the moving average depending on the time frame you are using than to overload the chart. The final version with one moving SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, HMA.
The logic for applying a moving average to a cumulative volume delta:
You choose a moving average, just like you would on your underlying asset. Use the moving average you like and the period you are used to working with. Each TF has its own settings.
What we see on the graph:
This is not an oscillator, but an adapted version for a candlestick chart (line only). Using it, you can clearly see where the market is moving based on the cumulative volume delta. The cool thing is that you can include your moving average applied to the cumulative volume delta. Thanks to this, you can see a trend movement, a return to the moving average to continue the trend.
Opportunities not lost:
The most interesting thing is that it remains possible to observe the divergence of the asset and the cumulative delta of the volume. This gives a great advantage. Those who have not worked with divergence do not rush into it right away. There may be 3 peaks in divergence (as with oversold/overbought), but it works many times more clearly than RSI and MACD.
Here's a good example on the daily chart. The moment we were all waiting for 75,000. The cumulative Delta Volume fell with each peak, while the price chart (tops) were approximately level.
Usually they throw (allow to buy) without volume for sales (delta down, price up) in order to merge at a more interesting price. And they also drain without the volume of purchases for a squeeze (price down / delta up) and again I buy back at a more interesting price. There are more complex estimation options; you can read about the divergence of the cumulative delta of the CVD volume. I just recommend doing a backtest.
Recommendations:
One more moment. Use the indicator on the stock exchange, where there is the most money, by turnover and by asset. Choose Binance, not Bybit. Those. choose the BTC asset, for example, but on the Binance exchange. Not futures, but spot.
The greater the turnover on the exchange for an asset, and the fewer opportunities to enter with leverage, the less volatile the price and the more beautiful and accurate the chart.
Works on all assets. There is a subscription limit (the number of calculated bars) that has little effect on anything. Can be applied to any asset where there is volume (not SPX, but ES1, not MOEX, but MX1!).
Перевод на русский.
Вчера написал с помощью AI простой и легкий код индикатора "Кумулятивная Дельта Объема со скользящей средней".
Введение:
Дельта (Delta) — это разница между покупками и продажами. Если покупок больше — дельта положительная, если больше продаж — дельта отрицательная. Мы смотрим на каждую свечу отдельно на том или ином таймфрейме, что не дает нам общей картины во времени.
Кумулятивная дельта объема — во многом продолжение дельты объёмов, но она включает более длительные периоды времени и дает другие торговые сигналы. Как и индикатор дельты объёма, индикатор кумулятивной дельты объема (Cumulative Volume Delta, CVD) измеряет связь между давлением покупателей и продавцов, но при этом не фокусируется на одной конкретной свече (или другом элементе графика), а дает картину во времени.
Что хотел получить?
Часто видел, что к кумулятивной детьте объема пытались прикрепить RSI и облако ишимоку, но никогда не видел кумулятивную дельту объема со скользящей средней. Скользящая средняя которая берет данные от кумулятивной дельты объема будет отличатся от скользящей средней основного актива. Было замечено, что часто в местах пересечения кумулятивной дельты объема и скользящей средней - это более точный сигнал к покупке или продаже, чем такие же пересечения по основному активу.
Изначально было сделанно 5 скользящих со значениями 21, 55, 89, 144 и 233, но я понял, что это перегружает график. Проще менять длину скользящей средней от используемого таймфрейма, чем перегружать график. Финальный вариант с одной скользящей SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, HMA.
Логика применения скользящей средней к кумулятивной дельте объема:
Вы выбираете скользящую среднюю, так же как и на основном активе. Применяйте ту скользящую среднюю, которая вам нравится и период, с которым привыкли работать. На каждом TF свои настройки.
Что мы видим на графике:
Это не осциллятор, а адаптированная версия к свечному графику (только линия). С помощью него вы можете наглядно посмотреть куда движется рынок по кумулятивной дельте объема. Самое интересное, что вы можете включить свою скользящую среднюю, применимую к кумулятивной дельте объема. Благодаря этому вы можете видеть трендовое движение, возврат к средней скользящей для продолжения тренда.
Не потерянные возможности:
Самое интересное, что осталась возможность наблюдать за дивергенцией актива и кумулятивной дельтой объема. Это дает большое преимущество. Те кто не работал с дивергенцией не бросайтесь на нее сразу. Может быть и 3 пика в дивергенции (как с перепроданностью / перекупленностью), но работает в разы четче чем RSI и MACD.
Вот хороший пример на дневном графике. Момент когда мы все ждали 75000. Кумулятивная Дельта Объема падала с каждым пиком, в то время как ценовой график (вершины) были примерно на уровне.
Обычно закидывают (разрешают покупать) без объема на продажи (дельта вниз цена вверх), чтобы слить по более интересной цене. И также сливают без объема покупок для сквиза (цена вниз / дельта вверх) и опять откупаю по более интересной цене. Существуют более сложные варианты оценки, можете почитать про дивергенцию кумулятивной дельты объема CVD. Только рекомендую сделать бэктест.
Рекомендации:
Еще момент. Используйте индикатор, на бирже, там где больше всего денег, по обороту и по активу. Выбирайте не Bybit, а Binance. Т.е. выбираете актив BTC, к примеру, но на бирже Binance. Не фьючерс, а спот.
Чем более большие обороты на бирже, по активу, и меньше возможностей заходить с плечами, тем менее волатильная цена и более красивый и точный график.
Работает на всех активах. Есть ограничение по подписке (количество рассчитываемых баров) мало влияет на что. Можно применить к любому активу где есть объем (не SPX, а ES1, не MOEX, а MX1!).
MM Sector Intraday TrackerWhat this script does:
This script tracks the percent that price has moved from the opening print of each of the 9 sector ETFs. It color codes the values so you can see which sectors are down (red color) and which sectors are up (green color). If a sector is only up or down half of one ATR, it the color will be light, but if it is beyond half of one ATR, it is a darker color.
How this script works:
It simply measures the distance that price has moved from the opening print today, and presents that information in an easy to read table on your chart.
How to use this script:
If all sectors are moving in one direction, it indicates that the entire market is in a trend day in that direction. You can use this information to decide which direction you should be trading (ie. with trend). For example, in order for there to be healthy bullish moves in the market, you would want this indicator to show you that all sectors are green, or at least that some sectors are green, which would indicate that there is healthy rotation of capital across the market sectors.
What makes this script original:
Most indicators and even the TradingView watchlist measure the percent changed on the day from the closing price of a stock on the prior trading day, essentially telling you what sentiment is since yesterday. This script tells you the sentiment today since it is priced from the opening print.
Moving Average Z-Score Suite [BackQuant]Moving Average Z-Score Suite
1. What is this indicator
The Moving Average Z-Score Suite is a versatile indicator designed to help traders identify and capitalize on market trends by utilizing a variety of moving averages. This indicator transforms selected moving averages into a Z-Score oscillator, providing clear signals for potential buy and sell opportunities. The indicator includes options to choose from eleven different moving average types, each offering unique benefits and characteristics. It also provides additional features such as standard deviation levels, extreme levels, and divergence detection, enhancing its utility in various market conditions.
2. What is a Z-Score
A Z-Score is a statistical measurement that describes a value's relationship to the mean of a group of values. It is measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean. For instance, a Z-Score of 1.0 means the value is one standard deviation above the mean, while a Z-Score of -1.0 indicates it is one standard deviation below the mean. In the context of financial markets, Z-Scores can be used to identify overbought or oversold conditions by determining how far a particular value (such as a moving average) deviates from its historical mean.
3. What moving averages can be used
The Moving Average Z-Score Suite allows users to select from the following eleven moving averages:
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
Hull Moving Average (HMA)
Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
Weighted Moving Average (WMA)
Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA)
Running Moving Average (RMA)
Linear Regression Curve (LINREG) (This script can be found standalone )
Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA)
Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA)
Kalman Hull Moving Average (KHMA)
T3 Moving Average
Each of these moving averages has distinct properties and reacts differently to price changes, allowing traders to select the one that best fits their trading style and market conditions.
4. Why Turning a Moving Average into a Z-Score is Innovative and Its Benefits
Transforming a moving average into a Z-Score is an innovative approach because it normalizes the moving average values, making them more comparable across different periods and instruments. This normalization process helps in identifying extreme price movements and mean-reversion opportunities more effectively. By converting the moving average into a Z-Score, traders can better gauge the relative strength or weakness of a trend and detect potential reversals. This method enhances the traditional moving average analysis by adding a statistical perspective, providing clearer and more objective trading signals.
5. How It Can Be Used in the Context of a Trading System
In a trading system, it can be used to generate buy and sell signals based on the Z-Score values. When the Z-Score crosses above zero, it indicates a potential buying opportunity, suggesting that the price is above its mean and possibly trending upward. Conversely, a Z-Score crossing below zero signals a potential selling opportunity, indicating that the price is below its mean and might be trending downward. Additionally, the indicator's ability to show standard deviation levels and extreme levels helps traders set profit targets and stop-loss levels, improving risk management and trade planning.
6. How It Can Be Used for Trend Following
For trend-following strategies, it can be particularly useful. The Z-Score oscillator helps traders identify the strength and direction of a trend. By monitoring the Z-Score and its rate of change, traders can confirm the persistence of a trend and make informed decisions to enter or exit trades. The indicator's divergence detection feature further enhances trend-following by identifying potential reversals before they occur, allowing traders to capitalize on trend shifts. By providing a clear and quantifiable measure of trend strength, this indicator supports disciplined and systematic trend-following strategies.

Moving Average Crossover Swing StrategyMoving Average Crossover Swing Strategy
**Overview:**
The basic concept of this strategy is to generate a signal when a faster/shorter length moving average crosses over (for Longs) or crosses under (for Shorts) a medium/longer length moving average. All of which are customizable. This strategy can work on any timeframe, however the daily is the timeframe used for the default settings and screenshots, as it was designed to be a multi-day swing strategy. Once a signal has been confirmed with a candle close, based on user options, the strategy will enter the trade on the open of the next candle.
The crossover strategy is nothing new to trading, but what can make this strategy unique and helpful, is the addition of further confirmation points, ATR based stop loss and take profit targets, optional early exit criteria, customizable to your needs and style, and just about everything visual can be toggled on/off. This strategy is based on a Trend (MA) indicator and a Momentum (MACD) indicator. While a Volume-based indicator is not shown here, one could consider using their favorite from that category to further compliment the signal idea.
It should be noted that depending on the time frame, direction(s) chosen, the signal options, confirmation options, and exit options selected, that a ticker may not produce more than 100 trades on the back test. Depending on your style and frequency, one could consider adjusting options and/or testing multiple tickers. It should also be noted that this strategy simply tests the underlying stock prices, not options contracts. And of course, testing this strategy against historical data does not assume that the same results will occur in future price action.
Shoutout given to Ripster's Clouds Indicator as pieces of that code were taken and modified to create both the Cloud visualization effects, and the Moving Average Pair Plots that are implemented in this strategy.
BASIC DEFAULTS
All can be changed as normal
Initial capital = 10,000
Order Sizing = 25% of equity (use the "Inputs" tab to modify this)
Pyramiding = 0
Commission = 0.65 USD per order
Price Verification = 1 tick
Slippage = 1 tick
RISK MANAGMENT
You will notice two different percentage options and ATR multipliers. This strategy will adjust position sizing by not exceeding either one of those % values based on the ATR (Average True Range) of the symbol and the multipliers selected, should the stock hit the stop loss price.
For Example, lets assume these values are true:
Account size = $10,000,
Max Risk = 1% of account size
Max Position Size = 25% of the account size
Stock Price = 23.45
ATR = 3.5
ATR Stop Loss Multiplier = 1.4
Then the formulas would be:
ACCT_SIZE * MaxRisk_% = 10000 * .01 = $100 (MaxCashRisk)
-----
MaxCashRisk / (ATR * ATR_SL_MULTIPLIER) = 100 / (3.5 * 1.4) = 20.4 Shares based on Max Cash Risk
-----
(ACCT_SIZE * MaxEquity_%) / STOCK_PRICE = (10000 * .25) / 23.45 = 106.61 Shares based on Max Equity Allocation
The minimum value of each of those options is then used, which in this case would be to purchase 20 shares so as not to exceed the max dollar risk should the stock reach the stop loss target. Likewise, if the ATR were to be much lower, say 0.48 cents, and all else the same, then the strategy would purchase the 106 shares based on Max Equity Allocation because the Max Cash Risk would require 149.25 shares.
MOVING AVERAGE OPTIONS
Select between and change the length & type of up to 5 pairs (10 total) of moving averages
The "Show Cloud-x" option will display a fill color between the "a" and "b" pairs
All moving averages lines can be toggled on/off in the "Style" tab, as well as adjusting their colors.
Visualization features do not affect calculations, meaning you could have all or nothing on the chart and the strategy will still produce results
SIGNAL CHOICES
Choose the fast/shorter length MA and the medium/longer length MA to determine the entry signal
CONFIRMATION OPTIONS
Both of these have customizable values and can be toggled on/off
A candle close over a slower/much longer length moving average
An additional cross-over (cross-under for Shorts) on the MACD indicator using default MACD values. While the MACD indicator is not necessary to have on the chart, it can help to add that for visualization. The calculations will perform whether the indicator is on the chart or not.
EARLY EXIT CRITERIA
Both can be toggled on/off with customizable values
MA Cross Exit will exit the trade early if the select moving averages cross-under (for longs) or cross-over (for shorts), indicating a potential reversal.
Max Bars in Trades will act as a last-resort exit by simply calculating the amount of full bars the trade has been open, and exiting on the opening of the next bar. For example: the default value is 8 bars, so after 8 full bars in the trade, if no other exit has been triggered (Stop Loss, Take Profit, or MA Cross(if enabled)), then the trade will exit at the opening of the 9th bar.
Finally, there is a table displaying the amount of trades taken for each side, and the amount & percent of both early exits. This table can be turned off in the "Style" tab
ADDITIONAL PLOTS
MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence):
- The MACD is an optional confirmation indicator for this strategy.
- Plotting the indicator is not necessary for the strategy to work, but it can be helpful to visually see the status and position of the MACD if this feature is enabled in the strategy
- This helps to identify if there is also momentum behind the entry signal
Markov Chain Trend IndicatorOverview
The Markov Chain Trend Indicator utilizes the principles of Markov Chain processes to analyze stock price movements and predict future trends. By calculating the probabilities of transitioning between different market states (Uptrend, Downtrend, and Sideways), this indicator provides traders with valuable insights into market dynamics.
Key Features
State Identification: Differentiates between Uptrend, Downtrend, and Sideways states based on price movements.
Transition Probability Calculation: Calculates the probability of transitioning from one state to another using historical data.
Real-time Dashboard: Displays the probabilities of each state on the chart, helping traders make informed decisions.
Background Color Coding: Visually represents the current market state with background colors for easy interpretation.
Concepts Underlying the Calculations
Markov Chains: A stochastic process where the probability of moving to the next state depends only on the current state, not on the sequence of events that preceded it.
Logarithmic Returns: Used to normalize price changes and identify states based on significant movements.
Transition Matrices: Utilized to store and calculate the probabilities of moving from one state to another.
How It Works
The indicator first calculates the logarithmic returns of the stock price to identify significant movements. Based on these returns, it determines the current state (Uptrend, Downtrend, or Sideways). It then updates the transition matrices to keep track of how often the price moves from one state to another. Using these matrices, the indicator calculates the probabilities of transitioning to each state and displays this information on the chart.
How Traders Can Use It
Traders can use the Markov Chain Trend Indicator to:
Identify Market Trends: Quickly determine if the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or sideways state.
Predict Future Movements: Use the transition probabilities to forecast potential market movements and make informed trading decisions.
Enhance Trading Strategies: Combine with other technical indicators to refine entry and exit points based on predicted trends.
Example Usage Instructions
Add the Markov Chain Trend Indicator to your TradingView chart.
Observe the background color to quickly identify the current market state:
Green for Uptrend, Red for Downtrend, Gray for Sideways
Check the dashboard label to see the probabilities of transitioning to each state.
Use these probabilities to anticipate market movements and adjust your trading strategy accordingly.
Combine the indicator with other technical analysis tools for more robust decision-making.
Option Pair ZigzagOptions Pair Zigzag:
Though we can split the chart window and view multiple charts, this indicator is useful when we view options charts.
How this indicator works:
The indicator works in non-overlay mode.
The indicator will find other option pair symbol and load it’s chart in indicator window. It will also draw a zigzag on both the charts. It will also fetch the SPOT symbol and display SPOT Close price of latest candle.
Useful information:
A. Support resistance: Higher High (HH) and Lower Low (LL) markings can be treated as strong support and or resistance and LH, HL markings can be treated as weak support and or resistance.
B. Trend identification: Easy identification of trend based on trend lines and trend markings i.e. Higher High (HH), Lower Low (LL), Lower High (LH), Higher Low (HL)
C. Use of Rate of change (ROC )– Labels drawn on swing points are equipped with ROC% between swing points. ROC% between Call and Put option charts can be compared and used to identify strong and weak moves.
Example:
1. User loads a call option chart of ‘NIFTY240620C23500’ (NIFTY 50 INDEX OPTIONS 20 JUN 2024 CALL 23500)
2. Since user has selected CALL Option, Indicator rules/logic will find PUT Option symbol of same strike and expiry
3. PUT Option chart would then shown in the indicator window
4. Draw zigzag on both the charts
5. Plot labels on both the charts
6. Labels are equipped with a tooltip showing rate of change between 2 pivot points
Input Parameters:
Left bars – Parameter required for plotting zigzag
Right bars – Parameter required for plotting zigzag
Plot HHLL Labels – Enable/disable plotting of labels
Use cases:
Refer to chart snapshots:
1. Buy Call Option or Sell Put Option - How one can trade on formation of a consolidation range
2. Breakdown of Swing structure - One can observe Swing structure (Zigzag) formed on a SPOT chart and trade on break of swing structure
3. Triangle formation - Observe the patterns formed on the SPOT chart and trade either Call or Put options. Example snapshot shows trade based on triangle pattern
Chart Snapshot:
One can split chart window and load base symbol chart which will help to review bases symbol and options chart at the same time.
