SMA MAD SuperTrend | OquantThe SMA MAD SuperTrend | Oquant is an trend-following indicator designed to help traders identify potential trend directions and reversals using a unique combination of a Simple Moving Average (SMA), Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD), and a SuperTrend mechanism. This script aims to provide clear visual signals for trend entries and exits, making it suitable for traders looking to capture trends.
This indicator innovatively combines the smoothing properties of an SMA with the volatility-adaptive qualities of MAD to create dynamic SuperTrend bands. Unlike traditional SuperTrend indicators that rely on Average True Range (ATR) for volatility, this script uses Mean Absolute Deviation(MAD) to measure the average absolute deviation from the mean price, providing a different perspective on price volatility. The result is a SuperTrend system that adapts to market conditions with a focus on price deviation, offering a unique tool for trend detection.
Components and Calculations
Simple Moving Average (SMA):
The SMA is a widely used indicator that calculates the average of a specified number of closing prices. It smooths price data to identify the overall trend direction. In this script, the SMA serves as the baseline for calculating dynamic upper and lower bands.
Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD):
MAD measures the average absolute deviation of the price from its mean. It quantifies volatility by calculating how far prices deviate from the mean price, offering an alternative to ATR.
SuperTrend Mechanism:
This SuperTrend indicator generates dynamic upper and lower bands around the Simple Moving Average (SMA) using mean absolute deviation as measure of volatility.
It tracks trend direction by comparing the close price to the bands:
If the price crosses above the upper band, the trend turns bullish, and the SuperTrend follows the lower band.
If the price crosses below the lower band, the trend turns bearish, and the SuperTrend follows the upper band.
The bands adjust based on their previous values, updating only when the price crosses a band or the band shifts in the correct direction, reducing false signals and ensuring stable trend detection.
How to Use the Indicator
Trend Signals:
Green Line: Indicates a bullish trend (price above the SuperTrend line).
Purple Line: Indicates a bearish trend (price below the SuperTrend line).
Bar and Candle Coloring: Bars and candles are colored green for bullish trends and purple for bearish trends, making it easy to visualize trend direction.
Filled Areas: The area between the price and the SuperTrend line is filled with transparent colors (green for bullish, purple for bearish) to highlight trend.
Inputs:
Source: Choose the price data for calculations.
SMA Length: Adjust the period for the SMA. Longer periods smooth the trend further.
MAD Length: Set the period for MAD calculation. Shorter periods make the MAD more sensitive.
Factor: Control the distance of the SuperTrend bands from the SMA. Higher values widen the bands, reducing sensitivity to price fluctuations.
Alerts:
The script includes alert conditions for trend changes:
SMA MAD SuperTrend Long: Triggered when the trend turns bullish.
SMA MAD SuperTrend Short: Triggered when the trend turns bearish.
Set up alerts in TradingView to receive notifications for these conditions.
Why Use This Script?
The SMA MAD SuperTrend | Oquant offers a fresh take on trend-following by integrating SMA as baseline and MAD for volatility measurement, providing an alternative to ATR-based SuperTrend indicators. Its clear visual signals, customizable inputs, and alert conditions make it versatile for traders of all levels.

VXN Net VolumeThis indicator is based on other open source scripts. It displays net volume (buying minus selling) approximated from lower timeframe data, helping traders gauge buying/selling pressure.
It uses the CBOE Nasdaq Volatility Index (VXN) to color the chart background: green for low volatility (bullish) when VXN's short-term EMA is below its long-term SMA, and red for high volatility (bearish) when above.
The net volume color is not filtered by the VXN Index trend direction (background color). It’s highly recommended to align with the VXN Index trend direction when using net volume to confirm your entry. A red net volume with a red background or a green net volume with a green background provides a high-probability setup.
A moving average of net volume is optionally plotted as a blue area to highlight significant volume levels.

VXN filtered CHOCH Pattern LevelsThis indicator is based on other open source scripts. It identifies Change of Character (CHOCH) patterns on Nasdaq futures (NQ and MNQ) charts, using pivot points to detect potential trend reversals.
Signals (horizontal levels) are filtered by VXN background color: bullish levels only on green background, bearish on red.
If a CHOCH occurs on the wrong background, it is remembered (pending), and triggered when the background aligns. The last CHOCH signal is remembered to avoid wasting it.
It plots horizontal levels anchored to the extreme points of CHOCH patterns (lowest low for bullish, highest high for bearish), using the labeling and line-drawing style from the VXN Anchored VWAP indicator.
Lines are drawn as polylines (horizontal) with labels at the anchor point and current bar showing the level value.
The VXN index provides background color for market sentiment (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Historical levels are plotted semi-transparently when a new filtered signal is confirmed (on detection if aligned or on trigger).

VXN EMA BandThis indicator is based on other open source scripts. It's designed for Nasdaq futures (NQ or MNQ). It plots an EMA Band consisting of three exponential moving averages (EMAs) with a period of 96, each using a different price source: low, (high + low + close)/3, and high. The EMAs are colored to indicate their source: darkest turquoise for the low-based EMA, medium turquoise for the (high + low + close)/3-based EMA, and lightest turquoise for the high-based EMA. This visual distinction helps traders identify price trends relative to these key levels.
The indicator also includes background coloring based on the VXN index direction (using CBOE:VXN) to highlight bullish or bearish market conditions. A bullish trend is suggested when the EMAs are aligned (EMA-High above EMA-Mid above EMA-Low) and the VXN EMA is below its SMA, indicated by a green background. A bearish trend is suggested when the EMAs are aligned (EMA-High below EMA-Mid below EMA-Low) and the VXN EMA is above its SMA, indicated by a red background.
SMAs, EMAs, 52W High Low, CPRThis is all in one indicator which has SMAs, EMAs, CPR, Trend ribbon and SuperTrend.
We are adding other indicator in upcoming days.

VXN OBV Traffic LightsThe VXN OBV Traffic Lights indicator is based on other open source scripts. It's designed for Nasdaq futures (NQ/MNQ) uses On-Balance Volume (OBV) to gauge buying and selling pressure, filtered by the VXN (CBOE Nasdaq Volatility Index) trend. OBV accumulates volume based on price direction: positive volume when the Heikin Ashi smoothed close rises, negative when it falls, and zero when unchanged. Three EMAs (fast, medium, slow) of OBV act as "traffic lights" to signal momentum strength, with a Donchian baseline providing a midpoint reference. Buy/sell signals are visually reinforced when OBV crosses its slow EMA, colored green (bullish) or red (bearish). The VXN trend (EMA vs. 200-period SMA) sets the background: green for bullish (lower volatility, VXN EMA < SMA) or red for bearish (higher volatility, VXN EMA > SMA), helping traders align trades with market conditions.
VXN RSI VWAP basedThis indicator is based on other open source scripts. It's designed for trading Nasdaq futures (NQ and MNQ). It generates trading signals based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI) calculated from multiple VWAP-based price series with different lengths. The VXN index (CBOE Nasdaq Volatility Index) is used to filter signals via background color.
- RSI Signals: Bullish signals occur when any RSI crosses above the 20 level (oversold), and bearish signals occur when any RSI crosses below the 80 level (overbought). These are plotted as green/red circles.
- VXN Filter: Traders should only take bullish signals (RSI > 20) when the background is green (VXN 1-period EMA < 200-period SMA, indicating bullish sentiment) and bearish signals (RSI < 80) when the background is red (VXN 1-period EMA > 200-period SMA, indicating bearish sentiment).
- Additional Signals: Optional signals are generated when all RSI lines are simultaneously bullish (green) or bearish (red), plotted as triangles if enabled.
Usage: Apply this indicator to a Nasdaq futures chart (NQ or MNQ) in TradingView. Wait for RSI crossovers above 20 when the background is green for long trades, and crossunders below 80 when the background is red for short trades. Adjust VWAP lengths, RSI length, and VXN settings to suit your trading strategy.

LogPressure Envelope [BOSWaves]LogPressure Envelope – Adaptive Volatility & Trend Visualizer
Overview
LogPressure Envelope is a specialized trading tool designed to normalize market behavior using logarithmic price scaling while providing an adaptive framework for volatility and trend detection. The indicator calculates a log-based moving average midline, surrounds it with asymmetric volatility envelopes, and replaces the conventional cloud with progressive fan lines to present price action in a more interpretable form.
By integrating rate-of-change midline coloring, fading trend strength, and structured buy/sell markers, LogPressure Envelope simplifies the reading of complex market dynamics. Its design makes it suitable for multiple trading approaches, including scalping, intraday, and swing trading, where volatility behavior and trend shifts must be understood quickly and objectively.
Unlike static envelope indicators, LogPressure Envelope adapts continuously to price scale and volatility conditions. It evaluates log-transformed prices, applies configurable moving average methods (EMA, SMA, WMA), and derives asymmetric standard-deviation bands for both upside and downside moves. These envelopes are projected as fan lines with adjustable opacity, producing a layered volatility map that evolves with the market.
This system ensures each visual element—midline shading, candle coloring, fan structure, and signal markers—reflects real-time market conditions, allowing traders to interpret volatility expansion, contraction, and directional bias with clarity.
How It Works
The foundation of LogPressure Envelope is the logarithmic transformation of price. By operating in log space, the indicator removes distortions caused by large nominal price differences across assets, enabling consistent analysis of both low-priced and high-priced instruments.
A moving average of log prices is calculated (EMA, SMA, or WMA depending on user input) and then re-converted to normal price scale, forming the log midline. Standard deviation of log prices is then measured over a separate period, with independent multipliers for upside and downside deviations. This asymmetry captures the fact that markets often expand differently in bullish versus bearish phases.
Instead of plotting a filled cloud, the envelope is expressed as ten equidistant fan lines stretching from the lower to upper boundary. Each line is shaded progressively to visualize volatility clustering and directional strength without overloading the chart.
Trend determination is smoothed using a fade mechanism: shifts in bias do not flip instantly but gradually move toward the new state, producing fewer false transitions. Buy and sell markers are generated when trend strength crosses confirmation thresholds, ensuring signals are event-driven and contextually meaningful.
Signals and Visuals
LogPressure Envelope provides multiple layers of structured signals:
Midline Bias – Central moving average colored by rate-of-change, reflecting directional acceleration or deceleration.
Volatility Fan – Ten progressive lines forming a gradient between lower and upper bands, visually encoding volatility spread.
Buy Signals – Labels below bars when upward trend strength is confirmed.
Sell Signals – Labels above bars when downward trend strength is confirmed.
Candle Coloring – Optional shading of candles based on trend alignment with the log midline, highlighting bullish, bearish, or neutral conditions.
These signals remain clear even during high-volatility phases, with visual hierarchy maintained through progressive opacity control.
Interpretation
Trend Analysis : Midline direction and candle coloring provide continuous feedback on prevailing bias. Upward-sloping midlines with blue shading indicate bullish phases, while downward slopes with orange shading confirm bearish conditions.
Volatility and Risk Assessment : Expansion of fan lines indicates rising volatility and potential breakout conditions; contraction indicates consolidation and possible mean reversion.
Signal Confirmation : Buy and sell markers validate transitions when trend strength thresholds are crossed, aligning with volatility envelope dynamics.
Market Context : Asymmetric envelopes allow traders to see where bearish acceleration differs from bullish expansion, improving interpretation of liquidity conditions and institutional pressure.
Strategy Integration
LogPressure Envelope can be applied across trading styles:
Trend Following : Enter trades in the direction of midline bias, confirmed by buy or sell markers.
Pullback Entries : Use midline retests during trending conditions as lower-risk continuation points.
Volatility Breakouts : Identify sharp expansions in fan line spacing as early signals of directional moves.
Reversal Strategies : Fade extreme envelope touches when momentum shows exhaustion and fan contraction begins.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : Align signals from higher and lower timeframes to reduce noise and validate trade setups.
Stop-loss levels can be set near the opposite envelope boundary, while targets may be managed through progressive volatility zones or midline convergence.
Advanced Techniques
For greater precision, LogPressure Envelope can be combined with other analytical tools:
Pair with volume or liquidity measures to validate breakout or reversal conditions.
Use momentum indicators to confirm ROC-based midline bias.
Track sequences of fan line expansions and contractions to anticipate regime shifts in volatility.
Apply across multiple timeframes to monitor how volatility clusters align at different market scales.
Adjusting parameters such as envelope multipliers, moving average type, and fade bars allows the indicator to adapt to diverse asset classes and volatility environments.
Inputs and Customization
Midline Type : Select EMA, SMA, or WMA.
Line Opacity : Control visibility of fan lines.
Enable Candle Coloring : Toggle trend-based bar shading.
MA Length / StdDev Length : Define periods for midline and volatility calculation.
Multipliers : Set asymmetric scaling for upside and downside envelopes.
Fade Bars : Control smoothness of trend strength transitions.
Fan Lines : Adjust number of envelope subdivisions for visualization granularity.
Why Use LogPressure Envelope
LogPressure Envelope translates complex volatility and trend interactions into a structured and adaptive framework. By combining logarithmic normalization, asymmetric standard deviation envelopes, and smoothed trend confirmation, it allows traders to:
Normalize price analysis across assets of different scales.
Visualize volatility expansion and contraction in real time.
Identify and confirm directional shifts with objective signal markers.
Apply a disciplined system for trend, breakout, and reversal strategies.

Moving Average Adaptive RSI [BackQuant]Moving Average Adaptive RSI
What this is
A momentum oscillator that reshapes classic RSI into a zero-centered column plot and makes it adaptive. It builds RSI from two parts:
• A sensitivity window that scans several recent bars to capture the strongest up and down impulses.
• A selectable moving average that smooths those impulses before computing RSI.
The output ranges roughly from −100 to +100 with 0 as the midline, with optional extra smoothing and built-in divergence detection.
How it works
Impulse extraction
• For each bar the script inspects the last rsi_sen bars and collects upward and downward price changes versus the current price.
• It keeps the maximum upward change and maximum downward change from that window, emphasizing true bursts over single-bar noise.
MA-based averaging
• The up and down impulse series are averaged with your chosen MA over rsi_len bars.
• Supported MA types: SMA, EMA, DEMA, WMA, HMA, SMMA (RMA), TEMA.
Zero-centered RSI transform
• RS = UpMA ÷ DownMA, then mapped to a symmetric scale: 100 − 200 ÷ (1 + RS) .
• Above 0 implies positive momentum bias. Below 0 implies negative momentum bias.
Optional extra smoothing
• A second smoothing pass can be applied to the final oscillator using smoothing_len and smooth_type . Toggle with “Use Extra Smoothing”.
Visual encoding
• The oscillator is drawn as columns around the zero line with a gradient that intensifies toward extremes.
• Static bands mark 80 to 100 and −80 to −100 for extreme conditions.
Key inputs and what they change
• Price Source : input series for momentum.
• Calculation Period (rsi_len) : primary averaging window on up and down components. Higher = smoother, slower.
• Sensitivity (rsi_sen) : how many recent bars are scanned to find max impulses. Higher = more responsive to bursts.
• Calculation Type (ma_type) : MA family that shapes the core behavior. HMA or DEMA is faster, SMA or SMMA is slower.
• Smoothing Type and Length : optional second pass to calm noise on the final output.
• UI toggles : show or hide the oscillator, candle painting, and extreme bands.
Reading the oscillator
• Midline cross up (0) : momentum bias turning positive.
• Midline cross down (0) : momentum bias turning negative.
• Positive territory :
– 0 to 40: constructive but not stretched.
– 40 to 80: strong momentum, continuation more likely.
– Above 80: extreme risk of mean reversion grows.
• Negative territory : mirror the same levels for the downside.
Divergence detection
The script plots four divergence types using pivot highs and lows on both price and the oscillator. Lookbacks are set by lbL and lbR .
• Regular bullish : price lower low, oscillator higher low. Possible downside exhaustion.
• Hidden bullish : price higher low, oscillator lower low. Bias to trend continuation up.
• Regular bearish : price higher high, oscillator lower high. Possible upside exhaustion.
• Hidden bearish : price lower high, oscillator higher high. Bias to trend continuation down.
Labels: ℝ for regular, ℍ for hidden. Green for bullish, red for bearish.
Candle coloring
• Optional bar painting: green when the oscillator is above 0, red when below 0. This is for visual scanning only.
Strengths
• Adaptive sensitivity via a rolling impulse window that responds to genuine bursts.
• Configurable MA core so you can match responsiveness to the instrument.
• Zero-centered scale for simple regime reads with 0 as a clear bias line.
• Built-in regular and hidden divergence mapping.
• Flexible across symbols and timeframes once tuned.
Limitations and cautions
• Trends can remain extended. Treat extremes as context rather than automatic reversal signals.
• Divergence quality depends on pivot lookbacks. Short lookbacks give more signals with more noise. Long lookbacks reduce noise but add lag.
• Double smoothing can delay zero-line transitions. Balance smoothness and timeliness.
Practical usage ideas
• Regime filter : only take long setups from your separate method when the oscillator is above 0, shorts when below 0.
• Pullback confirmation : in uptrends, look for dips that hold above 0 or turn up from 0 to 40. Reverse for downtrends.
• Divergence as a heads-up : wait for a zero-line cross or a price trigger before acting on divergence.
• Sensitivity tuning : start with rsi_sen 2 to 5 on faster timeframes, increase slightly on slower charts.
Alerts
• MA-A RSI Long : oscillator crosses above 0.
• MA-A RSI Short : oscillator crosses below 0.
Use these as bias or timing aids, not standalone trade commands.
Settings quick reference
• Calculation : Price Source, Calculation Type, Calculation Period, Sensitivity.
• Smoothing : Smoothing Type, Smoothing Length, Use Extra Smoothing.
• UI : Show Oscillator, Paint Candles, Show Static High and Low Levels.
• Divergences : Pivot Lookback Left and Right, Div Signal Length, Show Detected Divergences.
Final thoughts
This tool reframes RSI by extracting strong short-term impulses and averaging them with a moving-average model of your choice, then presenting a zero-centered output for clear regime reads. Pair it with your structure, risk and execution process, and tune sensitivity and smoothing to the market you trade.
Better Pivot Points [LuminoAlgo]Overview
The Better Pivot Points indicator is an advanced trend analysis tool that combines Supertrend methodology with automated pivot point identification and zigzag visualization. This indicator helps traders identify significant price turning points and visualize market structure through dynamic pivot labeling and connecting lines.
How It Works
This indicator utilizes a Supertrend-based algorithm to detect meaningful pivot points in price action. Unlike traditional pivot point indicators that rely on fixed time periods, this tool dynamically identifies pivots based on trend changes, providing more relevant and timely signals.
The algorithm tracks trend changes using ATR-based Supertrend crossovers to determine when significant highs and lows have formed. When a trend reversal is detected, the indicator marks the pivot point and draws connecting lines to visualize price flow and market structure progression.
Key Features
• Dynamic Pivot Detection: Automatically identifies high and low pivot points using Supertrend crossovers
• Market Structure Labeling: Labels pivots as HH (Higher High), LH (Lower High), HL (Higher Low), or LL (Lower Low)
• Zigzag Visualization: Connects pivot points with customizable lines to clearly show price flow and market structure
• Color-Coded Analysis: Uses distinct colors to indicate bullish trends (green), bearish trends (red), and neutral conditions (yellow)
• Customizable Parameters: Adjustable ATR period, factor, line width, and line style
Input Settings
• ATR Length: Controls the sensitivity of the Supertrend calculation (default: 21)
• Factor: Multiplier for the ATR-based Supertrend bands (default: 2.0)
• Zigzag Line Width: Customize the thickness of connecting lines (1-4)
• Zigzag Line Style: Choose between Solid, Dashed, or Dotted line styles
What Makes This Original
This indicator combines several analytical concepts into a cohesive tool that differentiates it from standard pivot point indicators:
1. Uses Supertrend crossovers as the trigger for pivot detection rather than traditional high/low lookback periods
2. Automatically categorizes market structure using HH/LH/HL/LL labeling system based on pivot relationships
3. Provides real-time zigzag visualization with intelligent color coding that reflects trend direction
4. Integrates trend direction analysis with structural pivot identification in a single comprehensive tool
The underlying calculations use custom logic for tracking trend states, validating pivot points, and determining appropriate color coding based on market structure analysis.
How to Use
1. Trend Identification: Green lines indicate bullish market structure, red lines show bearish structure, yellow indicates transitional periods
2. Support/Resistance: Pivot points often act as future support and resistance levels for price action
3. Market Structure Analysis: HH and HL patterns suggest uptrends, while LH and LL patterns indicate downtrends
4. Entry/Exit Planning: Use pivot points and trend changes to plan potential trade entries and exits
Important Limitations and Warnings
• This indicator is a technical analysis tool and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions
• Pivot points are identified after price moves occur, meaning this indicator has inherent lag and cannot predict future pivots
• False signals can occur during ranging or choppy market conditions where trends are unclear
• Past performance of any indicator does not guarantee future results or trading success
• The indicator works best in clearly trending markets and may produce less reliable signals in sideways price action
• This tool requires interpretation and should be combined with other forms of analysis
• Always use proper risk management and position sizing strategies when trading

Trend Shift Histogram By Clarity ChartsTrend Shift Histogram – A Brand New Formula by Clarity Charts
The Trend Shift Histogram is a brand-new mathematical formula designed to capture market momentum shifts with exceptional clarity.
Unlike traditional histograms, this indicator focuses on detecting early changes in market direction by analyzing underlying trend strength and momentum imbalances.
Key Features:
New Formula – Built from scratch to highlight momentum reversals and hidden trend shifts.
Visual Clarity – Green and red histogram bars make it easy to identify bullish and bearish phases, and grey area as trend reversal or sideways zone.
Trend Detection – Helps traders spot when the market is about to shift direction, often before price reacts strongly.
Scalable Settings –
Use smaller lengths for scalping and short-term trades.
Use larger lengths for swing trading and longer trend analysis.
Every Timeframe Ready – Whether you’re scalping on 1m or analyzing weekly charts, the histogram adapts seamlessly.
Power of Combining with the Fear Index
The Trend Shift Histogram becomes even more powerful when combined with Fear Index by Clarity Charts :
Fear Index by Clarity Charts
Together:
Fear Index highlights market fear & exhaustion levels, showing when traders are capitulating.
Trend Shift Histogram confirms the direction of the new trend once fear has peaked.
How to Use:
📈 Long Entry Condition
A long position is triggered when the following conditions align:
The Fear Index Bulls are showing upward momentum, indicating strengthening bullish sentiment.
The Fear Index Bears are simultaneously declining, signaling weakening bearish pressure.
The Trend Shift Histogram transitions from a short bias to a long bias, confirming a structural shift in market direction.
When all three conditions occur together, it provides a strong confluence to initiate a long trade entry.
📉 Short Entry Condition
A short position is triggered when the opposite conditions align:
The Fear Index Bears are showing upward momentum, indicating strengthening bearish sentiment.
The Fear Index Bulls are simultaneously declining, signaling weakening bullish pressure.
The Trend Shift Histogram transitions from a long bias to a short bias, confirming a structural shift in market direction.
When all three conditions occur together, it provides a strong confluence to initiate a short trade entry.
🔄 Bullish Trend Cycle
During a bullish phase as per the Fear Index, you can capture the entire cycle by:
Entry: Taking entries when the Trend Shift Histogram begins printing green bars, which mark the start of a bullish trend shift.
Exit: Closing the position when the histogram transitions to grey bars, signaling exhaustion or a potential pause in the bullish cycle.
This approach allows you to ride the bullish momentum effectively while respecting market cycle shifts.
🔻 Bearish Trend Cycle
During a bearish phase as per the Fear Index, you can capture the entire cycle by:
Entry: Taking entries when the Trend Shift Histogram begins printing red bars, which mark the start of a bearish trend shift.
Exit: Closing the position when the histogram transitions to grey bars, signaling exhaustion or a potential pause in the bearish cycle.
This approach ensures that bearish trends are traded with precision, avoiding late entries and capturing maximum move potential.
Watch for histogram color changes (green = bullish, red = bearish, grey = sideways).
Adjust length settings based on your style:
Small = intraday & scalping precision.
Large = swing & positional confidence.
Combine signals with Fear Index peaks for high-probability reversal zones.
Apply across any timeframe for flexible strategy building.
Who Can Use This
Scalpers – Catch quick intraday shifts.
Swing Traders – Ride bigger moves with confidence.
Long-Term Investors – Spot early warning signs of market trend reversals.

Price Heat Meter [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Price Heat Meter visualizes where price sits inside its recent range and turns that into an intuitive “temperature” read. Using rolling extremes, candles fade from ❄️ aqua (cold) near the lower bound to 🔥 red (hot) near the upper bound. The tool also trails recent extreme levels, tags unusually persistent extremes with a % “heat” label, and shows a bottom gauge (0–100%) with a live arrow so you can read market heat at a glance.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Rolling Heat Map (0–100%):
The script measures where the close sits between the current Lowest Low and Highest High over the chosen Length (default 50).
Candles use a two-stage gradient: aqua → yellow (0–50%), then yellow → red (50–100%). This makes “how stretched are we?” instantly visible.
Dynamic Extremes with Time Decay:
When a new rolling High or Low is set, the script starts a faint horizontal trail at that price. Each bar that passes without a new extreme increases a counter; the line’s color gradually fades over time and fully disappears after ~100 bars, keeping the chart clean.
Persistent-Extreme Tags (Reversal Hints):
If an extreme persists for 40 bars (i.e., price hasn’t reclaimed or surpassed it), the tool stamps the original extreme pivot with its recorded Heat% at the moment the extreme formed.
• Upper extremes print a red % label (possible exhaustion/resistance context).
• Lower extremes print an aqua % label (possible exhaustion/support context).
Bottom Heat Gauge (0–100% Scale):
A compact, gradient bar renders at the bottom center showing the current Heat% with an arrow/label. ❄️ anchors the left (0%), 🔥 anchors the right (100%). The arrow adopts the same candle heat color for consistency.
Minimal Inputs, Clear Theme:
• Length (lookback window for H/L)
• Heat Color set (Cold / Mid / Hot)
The defaults give a balanced, legible gradient on most assets/timeframes.
Signal Hygiene by Design:
The meter doesn’t “call” reversals. Instead, it contextualizes price within its range and highlights the aging of extremes. That keeps it robust across regimes and assets, and ideal as a confluence layer with your existing triggers.
⯁ HOW IT WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
Range Model:
H = Highest(High, Length), L = Lowest(Low, Length). Heat% = 100 × (Close − L) / (H − L).
Extreme Tracking & Fade:
When High == H , we record/update the current upper extreme; same for Low == L on the lower side. If the extreme doesn’t change on the next bar, a counter increments and the plotted line’s opacity shifts along a 0→100 fade scale (visual decay).
40-Bar Persistence Labels:
On the bar after the extreme forms, the code stores the bar_index and the contemporaneous Heat% . If the extreme survives 40 bars, it places a % label at the original pivot price and index—flagging levels that were meaningfully “tested by time.”
Unified Color Logic:
Both candles and the gauge use the same two-stage gradient (Cold→Mid, then Mid→Hot), so your eye reads “heat” consistently across all elements.
⯁ USAGE
Treat >80% as “hot” and <20% as “cold” context; combine with your trigger (e.g., structure, OB, div, breakouts) instead of acting on heat alone.
Watch persistent extreme labels (40-bar marks) as reference zones for reaction or liquidity grabs.
Use the fading extreme lines as a memory map of where price last stretched—levels that slowly matter less as they decay.
Tighten Length for intraday sensitivity or increase it for swing stability.
⯁ WHY IT’S UNIQUE
Rather than another oscillator, Price Heat Meter translates simple market geometry (rolling extremes) into a readable temperature layer with time-aware extremes and a synchronized gauge . You get a continuously updated sense of stretch, persistence, and potential reversal context—without clutter or overfitting.
DM Impulse Enhanced [BackQuant]DM Impulse Enhanced
What this is (and what it isn’t)
DM Impulse Enhanced is a signal-driven overlay that classifies market action into two practical regimes: Long (risk-on) and Cash (risk-off). It’s built around a proprietary impulse model from the directional-movement family, wrapped in a persistence test and a state machine. Because this script is private, the core mechanics are intentionally abstracted here; what follows explains how to read and use it without revealing the protected calculation.
Why traders use it
Many tools oscillate or describe “how stretched” price is; fewer make a firm, operational call that you can automate. DM Impulse Enhanced aims to do exactly that declare when upside pressure is broad and durable enough to justify a long bias, and when deterioration is strong enough to stand aside (cash/short discretion). The emphasis is on impulse persistence rather than one-off spikes.
What you see on the chart
• Long / Cash markers – Green up-triangles (Long) and red down-triangles (Cash) plot at the bar where the regime changes.
• Regime-tinted bars (optional) – Candles can be softly shaded green during Long and red during Cash for at-a-glance context.
• Trend ribbon (context only) – A narrow ribbon (fast/slow moving averages) is tinted by the current regime to show trend alignment; it does not generate signals on its own.
• No separate sub-pane – Signals are intended to sit directly on price for immediate decision-making.
How the logic behaves (high-level)
Impulse core – A directional-movement–based engine estimates the strength of buying vs. selling pressure over a user-defined horizon.
Persistence gate – Instead of reacting to a single reading, the model evaluates how consistently that impulse dominates across a configurable lookback range.
State machine – When persistence clears (or fails) a pair of thresholds, the model flips and stays in that regime until evidence justifies a change. This “stickiness” is intentional; it reduces whipsaws in choppy tape.
Inputs & controls
Calculation Settings
• DM Length – The base horizon for the impulse engine. Longer = smoother/steadier; shorter = quicker/more reactive.
• Start / End – Defines the span of the persistence check. Expanding the span asks the market to prove itself against more history before changing regime.
Signal Settings
• Long Threshold – The persistence level required to promote the model into Long.
• Short Threshold – The level that, once crossed to the downside, demotes the model into Cash. Using a cross-under event for risk-off helps avoid premature exits on noise.
Visual Settings
• Long / Short colours – Customize marker and shading hues.
• Color Bars? – Toggle candle tinting by regime (off if you prefer a clean chart).
Reading the signals
• Long prints only when the model observes sustained upside pressure across the configured span. Treat this as permission to engage with pullbacks, breakouts, or your preferred setups in the direction of the trend.
• Cash prints when downside deterioration is strong enough to invalidate the prior regime. It’s a risk-off directive—flatten, hedge, or switch to short strategies according to your plan.
• Regime persistence is a feature: once Long, the model won’t flip on minor dips; once Cash, it won’t re-arm on minor bounces. If you want more flips, shorten the spans and relax thresholds; if you want fewer, do the opposite.
Practical tuning guide
Match DM Length to your timeframe
– Intraday: smaller length for timely response.
– Swing/Position: larger length to filter desk-noise and track higher-timeframe flows.
Size the persistence span to your goal
– Narrow span: faster regime changes, more trades, more noise.
– Wide span: fewer, higher-conviction calls, longer holds.
Set realistic thresholds
– The Long threshold should be reachable with your chosen span; the Short threshold should be low enough to catch genuine deterioration but not so tight that it flips on every dip.
Decide on cosmetics
– Turn on bar tinting for discretionary reading, or keep it off when exporting screenshots or running other overlays.
Suggested workflows
• Trend-following with discipline – Trade only in the Long regime; use structure (higher lows, anchored VWAP, or pullbacks to your MA stack) for entries and the Cash flip as a portfolio-level exit.
• Risk overlay – Keep your normal strategy, but: reduce size when Cash appears; re-enable full risk only after Long reasserts.
• Multi-timeframe gating – Require Long on a higher timeframe (e.g., 4H or 1D), then take entries on a lower one. If the high-TF posts Cash, stand down.
How the ribbon fits in
The ribbon visualizes short- vs. intermediate-term trend in the same colour as the regime. It’s deliberately “dumb”: it does not change the signal, it just helps you see when price action and regime are in harmony (e.g., pullbacks during Long that hold above the ribbon).
Alerts included
• DM Impulse LONG – Triggers as the persistence measure clears the Long threshold.
• DM Impulse CASH – Triggers when deterioration crosses the Short threshold from above.
Configure alerts to fire on bar close if you want final (non-intrabar) decisions.
Strengths
• Actionable binary output – Long/Cash is unambiguous and easy to automate.
• Persistence-aware – Focuses on runs that endure, not one-bar excitement.
• Asset/timeframe agnostic – Works anywhere you trust directional-movement concepts (equities, futures, crypto, FX).
Limitations & cautions
• Not a reversal caller – It’s a regime classifier. If you need early bottoms/tops, pair it with your own exhaustion or liquidity tools.
• Parameter feasibility matters – If your thresholds are set beyond what your span can reasonably achieve, signals may rarely (or never) trigger.
• Chop happens – In mean-reverting or news-driven tape, expect more frequent flips unless you widen spans and thresholds.
• Intrabar movement – Like any responsive model, provisional intrabar states can appear before the bar closes. Use “bar close” alerts for finality.
Getting started (safe defaults you can adapt)
• Intraday bias – Shorter DM Length, modest span, moderately tight thresholds.
• Swing filter – Longer DM Length, wider span, stricter Long and sufficiently low Short.
• Conservative overlay – Keep thresholds firm and spans wide; use signals to scale risk rather than flip directions frequently.
Summary
DM Impulse Enhanced is a persistence-focused regime classifier built on directional-movement concepts. It answers a narrow question clearly “Risk-on or risk-off?” and stays with that answer until the evidence meaningfully changes. Use it as a bias switch, a portfolio risk overlay, or a gate for your existing entry logic, and size its spans/thresholds to the cadence of the market you trade.
Hammer Candle Finder [MQSXN]This script automatically scans your chart for hammer candlestick patterns and highlights them with fully customizable labels and markers. Hammers are classic price action signals that can suggest potential reversals or exhaustion in the current trend.
How it works:
- Detects candles with a small body near the top of the range, a long lower wick, and minimal upper wick.
- Separates bullish hammers (green close above open) from bearish hammers (red close below open).
- You can choose to display either type—or both—depending on your trading style.
Customizable options:
- Adjustable detection sensitivity (body % of range, wick-to-body ratio, top wick allowance).
- Toggle to show/hide bullish or bearish signals.
- Custom text, colors, label style, and positioning for the markers.
- Option to anchor labels above bars automatically or offset them by a set number of ticks.
Usage:
This tool is designed for traders who want a clear, visual way to spot hammer candles in real time or during historical chart analysis. Combine it with your own support/resistance zones, volume analysis, or confirmation indicators to build complete strategies.
Note:
This indicator does not provide buy/sell signals on its own—it’s meant to assist with candlestick recognition. Always confirm with your broader trading plan and risk management rules.
