Edwin K Stochastic Candle ColorsThe Stochastic Candle Colors indicator highlights price action using candle colors based on signals from the stochastic oscillator. Here's how to use it:
1. Indicator Purpose
This indicator overlays on your price chart and changes candle colors based on stochastic oscillator signals:
Green candles: Indicate a bullish signal when the %K line crosses above the %D line in an oversold area (below 20).
Red candles: Indicate a bearish signal when the %K line crosses below the %D line in an overbought area (above 80).
2. How to Use the Inputs
K (periodK): The lookback period for calculating the %K line of the stochastic oscillator. A smaller value makes the indicator more sensitive to price changes.
D (periodD): The period for smoothing the %K line to get the %D line. A larger value creates smoother signals but may result in delays.
Smooth (smoothK): The additional smoothing applied to the %K line before calculating the %D line. This helps reduce noise.
3. How to Interpret the Candle Colors
Green Candle:
Occurs when the %K line crosses above the %D line in the oversold zone (below 20).
Signals a potential bullish reversal.
Red Candle:
Occurs when the %K line crosses below the %D line in the overbought zone (above 80).
Signals a potential bearish reversal.
No Color:
No crossover occurs, or the crossover doesn't happen in overbought/oversold zones.
4. Application in Trading
Entry Points:
Buy when you see a green candle and confirm with other indicators or chart patterns.
Sell when you see a red candle and confirm with additional signals.
Trend Context:
Combine this indicator with trend-following tools like moving averages or support/resistance levels to improve accuracy.
Stop Loss/Take Profit:
Use nearby swing highs/lows for stop-loss placement.
Set profit targets based on risk-reward ratios or key levels.
5. Customization
Adjust the input parameters (K, D, and Smooth) to align the indicator's sensitivity with your trading style:
Short-term traders might prefer lower values for quicker signals.
Long-term traders might opt for higher values for smoother, more reliable signals.
6. Limitations
Signals in isolation might not be reliable. Always use this indicator in conjunction with other tools.
Avoid using during low volatility or sideways markets as stochastic oscillators can produce false signals.

Detrended Price Oscillator [NexusSignals]Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) is a detrended price oscillator, used in technical analysis, strips out price trends in an effort to estimate the length of price cycles from peak to peak or trough to trough.
DPO is not a momentum indicator, instead highlights peaks and troughs in price, which are used to estimate buy and sell points in line with the historical cycle. (cf. to investopedia)
DPO indicator made by NexusSignals components :
a filled area that allow users to see easy the trend of an asset;
a sma moving average on chart (default length is 20)
a 20 sma on oscillator, both ma's are color coded to show uptrend / downtrend
a donchian channel applied to the dpo to show breakouts, breakdowns and resistances/support, reversals
few alerts for price crossing above ma, cross above the 0 dpo line, and for cross above and below the donchian channels top and bottom
How you can use DPO indicator ?
The detrended price oscillator (DPO) can be used for measuring the distance between peaks and troughs in the indicator that may help traders to make future decisions as they can locate the most recent trough and determine when the next one may occur in the meassured distance on oscillator between peaks and troughs.
You can use the indicator to find the potential price reversals, for example when the price of an asset is in a bearish trend and the dpo is bouncing from the donchian channel bottom, that may be a potential swing low for that asset, same thing in a bullish trend when the dpo rejecting at top of donchian channel may be a trend reversal, a pullback or swing high.
When DPO is above the 0 trend is in an uptrend and when dpo is below the zero the asset is possible to move into a downtrend.
Also crosses of DPO above and below the DPO moving average may signalising a trend change.
Asset MaxGain MinLoss Tracker [CHE]Asset MaxGain MinLoss Tracker – Your Tool to Discover the Best Trading Opportunities
Introduction
Hello dear traders,
Today, I'd like to introduce you to a fantastic tool: the Asset MaxGain MinLoss Tracker . This indicator is designed to help you identify the best trading opportunities in the market by analyzing the maximum gain and adjusted maximum loss potentials of various assets.
Why Use This Indicator?
1. Time-Saving Analysis
Instead of spending hours sifting through different charts, this indicator provides you with key metrics for up to 10 assets at a glance.
2. Compare Multiple Assets Simultaneously
Monitor and compare multiple assets to discover which ones offer the highest profit potential and the lowest risk of loss.
3. Customizable Settings
Adjust the observation period and select the assets you want to analyze according to your trading strategy.
4. Clear Visual Representation
Data is presented in an easy-to-read table directly on your chart, highlighting assets with the highest maximum gain and the lowest adjusted maximum loss.
How to Use It in Everyday Trading
Step 1: Setting Up the Indicator
Select Your Assets: Choose up to 10 assets you wish to track. These can be cryptocurrencies, stocks, forex pairs, etc.
Configure the Trading Period Length: Set the number of bars (candles) over which you want to calculate the maximum gain and adjusted maximum loss. This allows you to tailor the analysis to your preferred time frame, whether it's short-term trading or long-term investing.
Step 2: Interpreting the Results
Maximum Gain (%): This value shows the potential upside of each asset over the selected period. A higher percentage indicates a greater potential for profit if the asset's price moves upward.
Adjusted Maximum Loss (%): This figure represents the potential downside risk, adjusted to give a more accurate reflection of loss potential. A lower percentage means less risk of significant loss.
Category Highlighting: Assets are categorized based on their performance:
High Gain & Low Loss: Assets that have both the highest max gain and the lowest adjusted max loss.
High Gain: Assets with the highest max gain.
Low Loss: Assets with the lowest adjusted max loss.
Step 3: Making Trading Decisions
Identify Opportunities: Focus on assets categorized as High Gain & Low Loss for the most favorable risk-to-reward scenarios.
Risk Management: Use the adjusted maximum loss to assess and mitigate potential risks associated with each asset.
Portfolio Diversification: Allocate your investments across assets with varying levels of gain and loss potentials to diversify your portfolio effectively.
Practical Example
Imagine you're monitoring the following assets:
Asset 1: BTCUSD
Asset 2: ETHUSD
Asset 3: ADAUSD
Asset 4: XRPUSD
After applying the indicator:
BTCUSD shows a high maximum gain but also a high adjusted maximum loss.
ETHUSD has both a high maximum gain and a low adjusted maximum loss, categorizing it as High Gain & Low Loss.
ADAUSD indicates a low maximum gain but the lowest adjusted maximum loss.
XRPUSD reflects moderate values in both categories.
Decision Making:
Primary Focus: ETHUSD may be your top choice due to its high reward and lower risk.
Risk-Averse Option: ADAUSD could be considered if you prioritize minimizing losses.
Balanced Approach: Diversify by investing in both ETHUSD and ADAUSD.
Understanding the Core Functionality
While you don't need to delve deep into the code to use the indicator effectively, understanding its core function can enhance your confidence in the tool.
The Main Function: Calculating Max Gain and Adjusted Max Loss
The heart of the indicator is a function that calculates two critical metrics for each asset:
Maximum Gain (sym_MaxGain):
Purpose: Measures the highest potential profit over the selected period.
How It Works: It finds the lowest price (sym_minlow) within the period and calculates the percentage increase to the current high price. This shows how much you could have gained if you bought at the lowest point.
Adjusted Maximum Loss (sym_AdjustedMaxLoss):
Purpose: Provides an adjusted measure of the potential loss, giving a more realistic risk assessment.
How It Works: It identifies the highest price (sym_maxhigh) within the period and calculates the percentage decrease to the current low price. This value is adjusted to account for the diminishing impact as losses approach 100%.
Simplified Explanation of the Function
Data Retrieval: For each asset (sym), the function retrieves the high and low prices over the specified timeframe.
Calculations:
Find Highest and Lowest Prices: Determines sym_maxhigh and sym_minlow within the tracking period.
Compute Max Gain: Calculates the potential gain from sym_minlow to the current high.
Compute Max Loss: Calculates the potential loss from sym_maxhigh to the current low.
Adjust Max Loss: Adjusts the max loss calculation to prevent distortion as losses near 100%.
Output: Returns both sym_MaxGain and sym_AdjustedMaxLoss for further analysis.
Benefits of Understanding the Function
Transparency: Knowing how these values are calculated can increase your trust in the indicator's outputs.
Customization: If you're familiar with coding, you might tailor the function to suit specific trading strategies.
Enhanced Analysis: Understanding the underlying calculations allows you to interpret the results more effectively, aiding in better decision-making.
Conclusion
The Asset MaxGain MinLoss Tracker is a powerful tool that can significantly enhance your trading efficiency and effectiveness by:
Providing Quick Insights: Save time by getting immediate access to essential performance metrics of multiple assets.
Assisting in Risk Management: Use the adjusted maximum loss to understand and mitigate potential risks.

Risk-Reward Labels Minimal with OffsetIndicator Explanation
The indicator “Risk-Reward Labels Minimal with Offset” is designed to assist traders in managing risk and potential rewards. It displays the Stop-Loss (SL) and Take-Profit (TP) levels for both long and short positions based on identified support and resistance levels.
Key Features:
1. Risk-Reward Ratio: Traders can adjust the risk-reward ratio to define the relationship between potential losses and potential gains (e.g., 1:1 or 1:2).
2. Risk Distance: The distance (in pips) is set to determine where to place the SL and TP levels.
3. Labels with Offset: SL and TP labels can be shifted by an offset (bars), allowing for better visualization.
4. Support and Resistance Levels: The indicator dynamically calculates support and resistance. When a support or resistance level is broken, the corresponding labels are deleted.
5. Display in Range Markets: If the market is ranging or lacks a clear trend, both long and short labels are displayed. This allows traders to identify potential entry opportunities in both directions, even when the market is not clearly trending.
6. Deletion Logic: If the price falls below support or rises above resistance, the relevant SL and TP labels are removed. However, in a Range situation, the possibility of seeing both long and short labels remains, increasing flexibility and helping to avoid false signals.
Prometheus Markov ChainThe Prometheus Markov Chain Indicator is a custom-built tool designed to predict potential future price movements using a Markov Chain approach. A Markov Chain is a statistical model that assumes the probability of moving to a future state depends solely on the current state. In this indicator, states represent price movement classifications—bullish, bearish, or neutral—and are determined based on historical price changes (percentage returns). The indicator builds a transition matrix to calculate probabilities of transitioning from one state to another, enabling traders to identify patterns and forecast likely price actions.
Core Functionality and Transition Matrix
The transition matrix is the backbone of the Markov Chain. It captures the frequency of transitions between states in the historical price data and normalizes these counts into probabilities. For example, if the price was in a bearish state and transitioned to a bullish state 3 out of 10 times, the probability of transitioning from bearish to bullish would be 0.3. The matrix is created dynamically using the stateFunc function to classify states, which can use either dynamic thresholds (highest and lowest returns over a lookback period) or a user-defined percent return threshold. Below is the snippet that updates the transition matrix:
transitionMatrix = matrix.new(dimension, dimension, 0.0)
for i = 0 to array.size(vec) - 2
fromState = array.get(vec, i)
toState = array.get(vec, i + 1)
transitionMatrix.set(fromState, toState, transitionMatrix.get(fromState, toState) + 1)
for i = 0 to dimension - 1
rowSum = 0.0
for j = 0 to dimension - 1
rowSum += transitionMatrix.get(i, j)
for j = 0 to dimension - 1
prob = transitionMatrix.get(i, j) / rowSum
transitionMatrix.set(i, j, prob)
This snippet iterates through historical price movements, counts state transitions, and then normalizes each row of the matrix so that the sum of probabilities for all possible transitions from a given state equals 1.
How the Indicator Predicts Future States
After constructing the transition matrix, the indicator calculates the current state of the price based on the latest percentage return and then uses the matrix to compute probabilities for transitioning to other states. The state with the highest probability is predicted as the next state, which is displayed on the chart using color-coded labels: green for bullish and red for bearish. The following snippet demonstrates how the current state and predictions are calculated:
current_chng = (close - close ) / close
var int current_state = na
if not use_custom_thresh
highest_chng = ta.highest(current_chng, int(size) * 2)
lowest_chng = ta.lowest(current_chng, int(size) * 2)
current_state := stateFunc(current_chng, highest_chng, lowest_chng)
else
current_state := stateFunc(current_chng, custom_thresh)
predicted_probs = array.new(dimension, 0.0)
for j = 0 to dimension - 1
array.set(predicted_probs, j, transitionMatrix.get(current_state, j))
The indicator evaluates which state has the highest transition probability (highest_prob) and places corresponding labels on the chart. For example, if the next state is predicted to be bullish, a green "Bullish" label is placed below the current bar. This predictive functionality helps traders anticipate potential reversals or continuations in price trends based on historical behavior patterns.
Usage:
Here we see the indicator at work on $PLTR. The states predicted are bullish then bearish. In this example we then see price move in a way that verifies those predictions.
On this 4 Hour NASDAQ:AMZN chart we see predictions play out in a short trade style. States quickly move from one to another but not without giving traders a way to take advantage.
This is the perspective we aim to provide. We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly. No indicator is 100% accurate. This one can give you a different perspective market state. We encourage any comments about desired updates or criticism!
Weekly Stacked Daily Changes [LuxAlgo]The Weekly Stacked Daily Changes tool allows traders to compare daily net price changes for each day of the week, stacked by week. It provides a very convenient way to compare daily and weekly volatility at the same time.
🔶 USAGE
The tool requires no configuration and works perfectly out of the box, displaying the net price change for each day of the week as stacked boxes of the appropriate size.
Traders can adjust the width of the columns and the spacing between days and weeks, options to change the color and disable the months and new month lines are also available.
🔹 Bottom Stack Bias
This feature allows traders to compare weekly volatility in two different ways.
With this feature disabled, all weeks use zero as the bottom of the stack, so traders can see at a glance weeks with more volatility and weeks with less volatility.
Enabling this feature will cause the tool to display the stacks with the weekly net price change as the bottom, so if a stack starts below the zero line it means that week has a negative net return, and if it starts above the zero line it means that week has a positive net return.
🔶 SETTINGS
Width: Select the fixed width for each column.
Offset: Choose the fixed width between each column.
Spacing: Select the distance between each day within each column.
🔹 Style
Bottom Stack Bias: Use weekly net price change as the bottom of the stack.
Bullish Change: Color for days with positive net price change
Bearish Change: Color for days with negative net price change
Show Months: Under each week stack, display the month
Show Months Delimiter: Display a line indicating the start of a new month

Potential Upcoming Trend ToolThis Script has the specific use of identifying when and how a new trend may start to take form, rather than focusing on how a trend has already formed on a longer term basis.
This Script is useful on it's own and not in conjunction with another. It works by taking on the most recent price data rather than a long term historical string.
It differs from standard trend following indicators because it's use is far less historical, and more present. It requires less pivot points than normal to be validated as a strong trend.
It works by taking local pivot points and fractals to form its parallel basis. The Trend lines will continually move as more recent price action data appears and the the channel will get thinner, until it is clear a trend has arrived and consolidated.
The idea really is to see a constantly evolving picture of a sudden change in movement, allowing you to have an earlier eye on what is potentially to come.
The faint mid-point line gives a reasonable reading of where you would find yourself halfway within a new trend and will also move inline with the shown trendlines.
This allows you to easily track when sentiment and therefore trends are about to change. It's much more useful on lower timeframes because they will often give the first indication something is changing.

Bitcoin Cycle High/Low with functional Alert [heswaikcrypt]Introduction
Just as machines are fine-tuned for maximum efficiency, trading indicators must evolve to meet the demands of ever-changing markets.
Credit goes to the initial author, @NoCreditsLeft I only improved the existing Pi-cycle indicator with a functional alert and included a bull mode indicator in the script. The alert can help you get a live alert at candle close when the cycle tops, bottoms, and the potential bull phase switch occurs.
Philip Swift’s Pi Cycle Top Indicator is a brilliant example of leveraging mathematical relationships to signal critical turning points in Bitcoin’s price cycles. Historically, it has identified market and local tops with some relative accuracy, often within three days, as demonstrated in all the previous bull run cycles.
At its core, the Pi Cycle Indicator derives its name from the mathematical constant π (pi), achieved by using simple moving averages (MAs) in a specific ratio: 𝜋 = Long MA/short MA
The Bull mode switch is calculated using a crossover of the short exponentia moving average and the long moving average.
.
.
.
Knowing when Bitcoin reaches its top—and receiving timely alerts about it—is crucial for successful trading. The indicator is designed to signal;
Potential Bitcoin tops: Purple label
Potential Bitcoin bottoms : green Label, and
Parabolic swing : Yellow diamond shape (relating to the market switching to a potential bull mode)
"Please note: This indicator is tailored for Bitcoin using historical data analysis and should not be considered definitive. However accurate it might be."
Setting alerts
To set the alert conditions, select any alert function call to get alert whenever the conditions are met. The script is configured on dialy TF; you can set it on 1D or weekly TF.
Enjoy and Trade smartly
Pi Cycle Bitcoin Top and Bottom (Daily)Pi Cycle Bitcoin Top and Bottom (Daily)
This indicator combines the renowned Pi Cycle Top and Pi Cycle Bottom indicators into one comprehensive tool designed to identify Bitcoin's market cycle tops and bottoms with precision.
Pi Cycle Top
The Pi Cycle Top indicator uses the 111-day moving average (111DMA) and a multiple of the 350-day moving average (350DMA x 2). Historically, this indicator has identified Bitcoin’s price cycle peaks with an accuracy of up to 3 days.
📈 When the 111DMA crosses above the 350DMA x 2, it signals a market cycle top.
Pi Cycle Bottom
The Pi Cycle Bottom indicator utilizes the 150-day exponential moving average (150EMA) and a multiple of the 471-day simple moving average (471SMA x 0.745). Over past cycles, this combination has effectively pinpointed Bitcoin’s market bottoms with the same level of accuracy.
📉 When the 150EMA crosses below the 471SMA x 0.745, it signals a market cycle bottom.
Parabola
As an additional feature, the indicator identifies moments when the 150EMA crosses back above the 471SMA x 0.745, suggesting a potential parabolic price movement.
Features
Precision: Both indicators have historically aligned with major market turning points.
Customizable settings: Adjust the short and long moving averages to fit your analysis needs.
Alerts: Real-time alerts can be enabled for identifying market tops and bottoms.
Clear visualization: Optional moving average lines and signal markers make it easy to track market trends.

Stock vs Sector Comparison with HighlightsThis graph is meant as a support to select a stock that is expected to perform better than the sector.
The graph is based on weekly chart. So this is a medium / long term strategy.
How is expected to be used: when the stock has under performed the sector for some time, there is a natural tendence that it will catch up with the sector again. So, for example, if the color change from green to red, you should consider find another stock in the sector. If the stock looses the green color, but is not red yet, you should wait. And vice versa if you start with red. However, life is not that simple, as you can get fake signal. To mitigate this problem, you can adjust the threshold in the input setting, so just go for the signal after x weeks over/underperforming. You also need remember to select the sector in the settings, as the sector is not give automatically when you select the stock.
Below the sectors used:
Sector Name Ticker
S&P 500 (Market Index) SPY
Technology XLK
Financials XLF
Consumer Discretionary XLY
Industrials XLI
Health Care XLV
Consumer Staples XLP
Energy XLE
Utilities XLU
Communication Services XLC
Real Estate XLRE
Materials XLB
US/JP Factor/Sector Performance RankingThis indicator is designed to help you easily understand the strengths and weaknesses of different factors and sectors in the U.S. stock market. It looks at various ETFs, ranks their performance over a specific period (20 days by default), and shows the results visually.
= How the Ranking Works
The best-performing rank is shown as -1, with lower ranks as -2, -3, -4, and so on. This setup makes it easy to see rank order in TradingView’s default view.
If you turn on the “Inverse” setting, ranks will be shown as positive numbers in order (e.g., 1, 2, 3…). In this case, it’s recommended to reverse the TradingView scale for better understanding.
= How the Indicator Reacts to Market Conditions
- Normal Market Conditions
Certain factors or sectors often stay at the top rank. For example, during the rallies at the start of 2024 and in May, the Momentum factor performed well, showing a risk-on market environment.
On the other hand, sectors at the bottom rank also tend to stay in specific positions.
- Market Tops
Capital flows within sectors slow down, and top ranks begin to change frequently. This may suggest a market turning point.
- Bear Markets or High Volatility
Rankings become more chaotic in these conditions. These large changes can help you understand market sentiment and the level of volatility.
= Way of using the Indicator
You can use this indicator in the following ways:
- To apply sector rotation strategies.
- To build positions after volatile markets calm down.
- To take long positions on strong elements (higher ranks) and short positions on weaker ones (lower ranks).
= Things to Keep in Mind
It’s a Lagging Indicator
This indicator calculates rankings using the past 20 days of data. It doesn’t provide signals for the future but is a tool for analyzing past performance. To predict the market, you should combine this with other tools or leading indicators.
However, since trends in capital flows often continue, this indicator can help you spot those trends.
= Customization
This indicator is set up for U.S. and Japanese stock markets. However, you can customize it for other markets by changing the ticker and label description in the script.
==Japanese Description==
このインジケーターは、米国株市場におけるファクターやセクターの強弱を直感的に把握するために設計されています。
各ETFを参照し、特定期間（デフォルトでは20日間）のパフォーマンスを順位付けし、それを視覚的に表示します。
= インジケーターの特徴
- ランク付けの仕様
ランク1位は-1で表され、順位が下がるごとに-2、-3、-4…と減少します。この仕様により、TradingViewの標準状態でランクの高低を直感的に把握できるようにしました。
さらに、Inverse設定をONにすると、1位から順に正の値（例: 1, 2, 3…）で表示されるようになります。この場合、TradingViewのスケールを反転させることを推奨します。
= 市況とインジケーターの動き
- 平常時の市況
特定のファクターやセクターがランク1位を維持することが多いです。
例えば、2024年の年初や同年5月の上昇相場では、Momentumファクターが効果を発揮し、リスクオンの市場環境であったことを示しています。
一方、最下位に位置するセクターも特定の順位を維持する傾向があります。
- 天井圏の市況
セクター内の資金流入や流出が停滞し、上位ランクの変動が起こり始めます。これが市場の転換点を示唆する場合があります。
- 下落相場や荒れた市況
ランク順位が大きく乱れることが特徴です。この変動の大きさは、市況の雰囲気やボラティリティの高さを感じ取る材料として活用できます。
= 活用方法
このインジケーターは以下のような投資戦略に役立てることができます：
- セクターローテーションを活用した投資戦略
- 荒れた相場が落ち着いたタイミングでのポジション構築
- 強い要素（ランク上位）のロング、弱い要素（ランク下位）のショート
= 注意点
- 遅行指標であること
本インジケーターは、過去20日間のデータを基にランクを算出します。そのため、先行的なシグナルを提供するものではなく、過去のパフォーマンスに基づいた分析ツールです。市場を先回りするには、別途先行指標や分析を組み合わせる必要があります。
ただし、特定のファクターやセクターへの資金流入・流出が継続する傾向があるため、これを見極める手助けにはなります。
= カスタマイズについて
このインジケーターは米国・日本株市場に特化しています。ただし、他国のファクターやセクターのETFや指数が利用可能であれば、スクリプト内のtickerとlabel descriptionを変更することでカスタマイズが可能です。

Z-ScoreThe z-score (also known as the standard score) measures how many standard deviations a data point is from the mean of a dataset. It helps determine whether a data point is typical or unusual compared to the dataset.
The formula for the z-score is:
z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}
Where:
• x = the value being evaluated
• \mu = the mean of the dataset
• \sigma = the standard deviation of the dataset
Interpretation:
• A positive z-score indicates the data point is above the mean.
• A negative z-score indicates the data point is below the mean.
• A z-score of 0 means the data point is exactly at the mean.

XAMD/AMDX ICT 01 [TradingFinder] SMC Quarterly Theory Cycles🔵 Introduction
The XAMD/AMDX strategy, combined with the Quarterly Theory, forms the foundation of a powerful market structure analysis. This indicator builds upon the principles of the Power of 3 strategy introduced by ICT, enhancing its application by incorporating an additional phase.
By extending the logic of Power of 3, the XAMD/AMDX tool provides a more detailed and comprehensive view of daily market behavior, offering traders greater precision in identifying key movements and opportunities
This approach divides the trading day into four distinct phases : Accumulation (19:00 - 01:00 EST), Manipulation (01:00 - 07:00 EST), Distribution (07:00 - 13:00 EST), and Continuation or Reversal (13:00 - 19:00 EST), collectively known as AMDX.
Each phase reflects a specific market behavior, providing a structured lens to interpret price action. Building on the fractal nature of time in financial markets, the Quarterly Theory introduces the Four Quarters Method, where a currency pair’s price range is divided into quarters.
These divisions, known as quarter points, highlight critical levels for analyzing and predicting market dynamics. Together, these principles allow traders to align their strategies with institutional trading patterns, offering deeper insights into market trends
🔵 How to Use
The AMDX framework provides a structured approach to understanding market behavior throughout the trading day. Each phase has its own characteristics and trading opportunities, allowing traders to align their strategies effectively. To get the most out of this tool, understanding the dynamics of each phase is essential.
🟣 Accumulation
During the Accumulation phase (19:00 - 01:00 EST), the market is typically quiet, with price movements confined to a narrow range. This phase is where institutional players accumulate their positions, setting the stage for future price movements.
Traders should use this time to study price patterns and prepare for the next phases. It’s a great opportunity to mark key support and resistance zones and set alerts for potential breakouts, as the low volatility makes immediate trading less attractive.
🟣 Manipulation
The Manipulation phase (01:00 - 07:00 EST) is often marked by sharp and deceptive price movements. Institutions create false breakouts to trigger stop-losses and trap retail traders into the wrong direction. Traders should remain cautious during this phase, focusing on identifying the areas of liquidity where these traps occur.
Watching for price reversals after these false moves can provide excellent entry opportunities, but patience and confirmation are crucial to avoid getting caught in the manipulation.
🟣 Distribution
The Distribution phase (07:00 - 13:00 EST) is where the day’s dominant trend typically emerges. Institutions execute large trades, resulting in significant price movements. This phase is ideal for trading with the trend, as the market provides clearer directional signals.
Traders should focus on identifying breakouts or strong momentum in the direction of the trend established during this period. This phase is also where traders can capitalize on setups identified earlier, aligning their entries with the market’s broader sentiment.
🟣 Continuation or Reversal
Finally, the Continuation or Reversal phase (13:00 - 19:00 EST) offers a critical juncture to assess the market’s direction. This phase can either reinforce the established trend or signal a reversal as institutions adjust their positions.
Traders should observe price behavior closely during this time, looking for patterns that confirm whether the trend is likely to continue or reverse. This phase is particularly useful for adjusting open positions or initiating new trades based on emerging signals.
🔵 Settings
Show or Hide Phases.
Adjust the session times for each phase :
Accumulation: 19:00-01:00 EST
Manipulation: 01:00-07:00 EST
Distribution: 07:00-13:00 EST
Continuation or Reversal: 13:00-19:00 EST
Modify Visualization : Customize how the indicator looks by changing settings like colors and transparency.
🔵 Conclusion
AMDX provides traders with a practical method to analyze daily market behavior by dividing the trading day into four key phases: Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Continuation or Reversal. Each phase highlights specific market dynamics, offering insights into how institutional activity shapes price movements.
From the quiet buildup in the Accumulation phase to the decisive trends of the Distribution phase, and the critical transitions in Continuation or Reversal, this approach equips traders with the tools to anticipate movements and make informed decisions.
By recognizing the significance of each phase, traders can avoid common traps during Manipulation, capitalize on clear trends during Distribution, and adapt to changes in the final phase of the day.
The structured visualization of market phases simplifies decision-making for traders of all levels. By incorporating these principles into your trading strategy, you can enhance your ability to align with market trends, optimize entry and exit points, and achieve more consistent results in your trading journey.
MegaGas Bollinger Bands with Divergence and Circle SignalsIndicator: MegaGas Bollinger Bands with Divergence and Circle Signals
This script provides a powerful combination of Bollinger Bands, RSI Divergence detection, and signal visualization tools. Designed with flexibility and precision in mind, it aims to assist traders in identifying trend reversals, volatility zones, and divergence-based trading opportunities. The script is well-suited for swing trading, momentum trading, and even scalping when adapted to lower timeframes.
How It Works:
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands are used to detect price volatility and overbought/oversold conditions. The script calculates:
Basis Line: A 34-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) as the core trend line.
Upper Bands: Bands positioned 1x and 2x the standard deviation above the SMA.
Lower Bands: Bands positioned 1x and 2x the standard deviation below the SMA. These levels provide dynamic support and resistance zones, highlighting breakout and reversion opportunities.
RSI Divergence Detection:
The indicator detects bullish divergence (when RSI forms a higher low while price forms a lower low) and bearish divergence (when RSI forms a lower high while price forms a higher high). These divergences often precede significant reversals or momentum shifts.
Bullish divergence is displayed with blue triangles (up).
Bearish divergence is displayed with orange triangles (down).
Buy and Sell Signals:
Circle Signals are generated when price crosses key Bollinger Bands levels:
A green circle appears when the price crosses above the lower band (potential buy signal).
A red circle appears when the price crosses below the upper band (potential sell signal).
These signals help identify potential entry and exit points for trades, particularly in trend-following or mean-reversion strategies.
Trend Reference (Moving Average):
A 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) is included as a trend reference, helping traders gauge the overall market direction. Use this to confirm divergence signals and avoid trades against the prevailing trend.
Why This Indicator Is Unique:
This script integrates multiple tools in a meaningful way, emphasizing contextual trading signals. Unlike standalone Bollinger Bands or RSI indicators, it introduces:
Advanced Divergence Analysis: Enhancing traditional RSI with divergence-based alerts.
Dynamic Signal Filtering: Preventing repetitive signals by introducing state-based logic for circles and divergence signals.
Trend Alignment: Combining Bollinger Bands with an SMA to filter trades based on the prevailing trend.
How to Use:
Setup:
Apply the indicator to any chart and timeframe. For swing trading, higher timeframes like 4H or 1D are recommended.
Adjust the RSI, Bollinger Bands, and Moving Average lengths to match your strategy and asset.
Signals:
Look for divergence signals (triangles) as early warnings of trend reversals. Confirm these with price action or other tools.
Use circle signals (green/red) to time potential entries/exits around Bollinger Band extremes.
Confirmation:
Combine divergence and circle signals with the SMA line to avoid counter-trend trades. For example, take bullish signals when the price is above the SMA and bearish signals when it is below.
Chart Clarity:
The script is published with a clean chart for clarity. It visualizes all signals with distinct shapes (triangles and circles) and colors, ensuring they are easily recognizable. Bollinger Bands and the SMA are plotted with transparency to avoid clutter.
Originality:
This script is a thoughtful blend of Bollinger Bands and RSI divergence detection, carefully designed to provide traders with actionable insights. It introduces state-based logic to manage repetitive signals and seamlessly integrates trend filtering, making it a valuable tool for both novice and experienced traders.
