Yield Curve InversionThe Yield Curve Inversion indicator is a tool designed to help traders and analysts visualize and interpret the dynamics between the US 10-year and 2-year Treasury yields. This indicator is particularly useful for identifying yield curve inversions, often seen as a precursor to economic recessions.
Features and Interpretations
Display Modes: Choose between "Spread Mode" to visualize the yield spread indicating normal (green) or inverted (red) curves, or "Both Yields Mode" to view both yields.
Yield Spread: A plotted difference between 10-year and 2-year yields, with a zero line marking inversion. A negative spread suggests potential economic downturns.
Color Coding: Green for a normal yield curve (10Y > 2Y) and red for an inverted curve (2Y > 10Y).
Legend: Provides quick reference to yield curve states for easier interpretation.

Spreads
Spread ChartThis script lets you chart a spread of a maximum of 3 tickers (one of them being the ticker in the main chart).
Y axis is the currency amount of the spread, that is calculated by this formula:
Y = PnL = quantity * price * handleValue
Y is calculated for each ticker specified, and the sum of Ys obtained is plotted.
this way it is possible to view the PnL of the spread directly.
It is necessary to specify the handle value (point value) in the script inputs (not for the main chart ticker).
A table summarizes the spread configuration, containing all inputs.
two_leg_spread_diffThis script helps you discern the relative change of each leg in a two-legged spread over a given period. The main plot is a difference in log return over the number of bars identified by the "lag" parameter. E.g. if "lag" is 10 and leg one has increased 3% over the past ten bars, while leg two has only increased 1%, the plot value is 2%. The main plot is also colored blue when leg one increases while leg two decreases on a given bar, and red if the opposite is true. This feature identifies periods where the correlation between the two legs diminishes. The one and two standard deviation of the main plot is also plotted in faint background lines. Additionally, a table indicates the percentage in which the main plot is within one standard deviation (acc 1) and two standard deviations (acc 2). Note that the standard deviation updates on each bar, so the current standard deviation is not the one used to calculate the accuracy. Rather, if there are N bars, N different standard deviation readings have been used to compute the accuracy statistics.
The inputs are:
- timeframe: the timeframe of the chart
- leg1_sym: the symbol of the first leg
- leg2_sym: the symbol of the second leg
- lag: the number of bars back to reference for computing the log return of each leg
- anchor_to_session_start: for intraday charts only, this overwrites the "lag" input so that the "lag" always sets the point of comparison to the session start. This setting is used to compute the relative change over a single session.
Plot the close-spread relationship between two price seriesThis indicator plots the close-spread relationship between two price series by calculating the change across two price series as a spread for each. Each spread is the rate of change in yesterday's closing price and the prior day's closing price. By default, weekend prices are defined to be 0.0 but can be included as user-definable input, if required.
User input:
Symbol for price series 1 - defaults to BITFINEX:BTCUSD
Symbol for price series 2 - defaults to NASDAQ:NDX
Market session time (string) - defaults to 00:00 to 23:59
Timezone - defaults to UTC-4

PIP BandsGot a little board due to the lock-down so I have written this little script.
It allows you to set PIP Bands at levels on the chart.
The Back Line is Close plus Spread, the Red Line is PIPs below and the Green Lines are spaced at PIPs above at equal distance.
The top four lines can be toggled off. Set off as default.
There is a toggle for JPY Currencies and also for Puts and Calls.
You can change the Spread and also the distance between bands by a set amount of PIP's.
You can either let it run at current close price or set price.
Hope you enjoy. Be safe.
Comments appreciated.
Spread PercentThis indicator shows the percent change between the highs and the lows (or optionally the open and close) of each candle. You may also set a low and a high percent threshold to better highlight the candles that exceed your desired spread percent. Red signifies low spread, green is high spread - these are unrelated to the color of the candle body. There is also the option to display a moving average of the spread percent at your desired length which is a representation of volatility over time.
This is not only helpful for historical analysis over time, but this can also be a time saver if you are trying to calculate the measured distance of a move. Save clicks - no more needing to use the measuring tool.
The settings of the indicator on the chart above are:
- Measure Candle Body Only? - No
- Highlight Thresholds? - Yes
- Thresholds Based on Moving Averages? - Yes
- Low Percent Threshold - 3.0
- High Percent Threshold - 7.0
- Show Moving Average? - Yes
- Moving Average Length - 5
