Trail Blaze - (Multi Function Trailing Stop Loss) - [mutantdog]Shorter version:
As the title states, this is a 'Trailing Stop' type indicator, albeit one with a whole bunch of additional functionality, making it far more versatile and customisable than a standard trailing stop.
The main set of features includes:
Three independent trailing types each with their own +/- multipliers:
- Standard % change
- ATR (aka Supertrend)
- IQR (inter-quartile range)
These can be used in isolation or summed together. A subsequent pair of direction specific multipliers are also included.
Two separate custom source inputs are available, both feature the standard options alongside a selection of 'weighted inputs' and the option to use another indicator (selected via 'AUX'):
- 'Centre' determines the value about which the trailing sum will be added to define the stop level.
- 'Trigger' determines the value used for crossing of stops, initiating trend changes and triggering alerts.
A selection of optional filters and moving averages are available for both.
Furthermore there are various useful visualisation options available, including the underlying bands that govern the stop levels. Preset alerts for trend reversals are also included.
This is not really an 'out-of-the-box' indicator. Depending upon the market and timeframe some adjustments will be necessary for it to function in a useful manner, these can be as simple or complex as the feature-set allows. Basic settings are easy to dial in however and the default state is intended as a good starting point. Alternatively with some experimentation, a plethora of unique and creative configurations are possible, making this a great tool for tweaking. Below is a more detailed overview followed by a bunch of simple example settings.
------------------------
Lengthy Version :
DESIGN & CONCEPT
Before we start breaking this down, a little background. This started off as an attempt to improve upon the ever-popular Supertrend indicator. Of course there are many excellent user created variants available utilising some interesting methods to overcome the drawbacks of the basic version. To that end, rather than copying the work of others, the direction here shifted towards a hybrid trailing stop loss with a bunch of additional user customisation options. At some point, a completely different project involving IQR got morphed into this one. After sitting through months of sideways chop (where this proved to be of limited use), at the time of publication the market has began to form some near term trend direction and it appears to be performing well in many different timeframes.
And so with that out of the way...
INPUTS
The standard Supertrend (and most other variants) includes a single source input, as default set to 'hl2' (candle mid-range). This is the centre around which the atr bands are added/subtracted to govern the stop levels. This is not however the value which is used to trigger the trend reversal, that is usually hard-coded to 'close'. For this version both source values are adjustable: labelled 'centre' and 'trigger' respectively.
Each has custom input selectors including the usual options, a selection of 'weighted inputs' and the option to use another indicator (selected from the Aux input). The 'weighted inputs' are those introduced in Weight Gain 4000, for more details please refer to that listing. These should be treated as experimental, however may prove useful in certain configurations. In this case 'hl-oc2' can be considered an estimate of the candle median and may be a good alternative to the default 'centre' setting of 'hl2', in contrast 'cc-ohlc4' can tend to favour the extremes in the trend direction so could be useful as a faster 'trigger' than the default 'close'.
To cap them off both come with a selection of moving average filters (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, HMA, VWMA and a simple VWEMA - note: not elastic) aswell as median and mid-range. 'Centre' can also be set to the output of 'trigger' post-filter which can be useful if working with fast/slow crosses as the basis.
DYNAMICS
This is the main section, comprised of three separate factors: 'TSL', 'ATR' and 'IQR'. The first two should be fairly obvious, 'TSL' (trailing stop loss) is simply a percentage of the 'centre' value while 'ATR' (average true range) is the standard RMA-based version as used in Supertrend, Volatility Stop etc.
The third factor is less common however: 'IQR' (inter-quartile range). In case you are unfamiliar the principle here is, for a given dataset, the greatest 25% and smallest 25% of samples are removed. The remainder is then treated as a set and the range is calculated by highest - lowest. This is a commonly used method in statistical analysis, by removing the extremes it is less prone to influence by outliers and gives a good representation of the main dispersion around the median. In practise i have found it can be a good alternative to ATR, translating better across multiple time-frames due to it representing a fraction of the total range rather than an average of per-candle range like ATR. Used in combination with the others it can also add a factor more representative of longer-term/higher-timeframe trend. By discarding outliers it also benefits from not being impacted by brief pumps/volatility, instead responding only to more sustained changes in trend, such as rallies and parabolic moves. In order to give an accurate result the IQR is calculated using a dataset of high, low and hlcc4 values for all bars within the lookback length. Once calculated this value is then halved which, strictly speaking, makes it a semi-interquartile range.
All three of these components can be used individually or summed together to create a hybrid dynamics factor. Furthermore each multiplier can be set to both positive and negative values allowing for some interesting and creative possibilities. An optional smoothing filter can be applied to the sum, this is a basic SWMA-4 which is can reduce the impact of sudden changes but does incur a noticeable lag. Finally, a basic limiter condition has been hard-coded here to prevent the sum total from ever going below zero.
Capping off this section is a pair of direction multipliers. These simply take the prior dynamics sum and allow for further multiplication applied only to one side (uptrend/lo-stop and downtrend/hi-stop). To see why this is useful consider that markets often behave differently in each direction, we've all seen prices steadily climb over several weeks and then abruptly dump in the process of a day or two, shorter time frames are no stranger to this either. A lack of downside liquidity, a panicked market, aggressive shorts. All these things contribute to significant differences in downward price action. This function allows for tighter stops in one direction compared to the other to reflect this imbalance.
VISUALISATIONS
With all of these options and possibilities, some visual aids are useful. Beneath the dynamics' section are several visual options including both sources post-filter and the actual 'bands' created by the dynamics. These are what govern the stop levels and seeing them in full can help to better understand what our various configurations actually do. We can even hide the stop levels altogether and just use the bands, making this a kind of expanded Keltner Channel. Here we can also find colour and opacity settings for everything we've discussed.
EXAMPLES
The obvious first example here is the standard %-change trailing stop loss which, from my experience, tends to be the best suited for lower time frames. Filtering should probably minimal here. In both charts here we use the default config for source inputs, the top is a standard bi-directional setup with 1.5% tsl while the bottom uses a 2.5% tsl with the histop multiplier reduced to 0 resulting in an uptrend only stoploss.
Shown here in grey is the standard Supertrend which uses 'hl2' as centre and 'close' as trigger, ATR(10) multiplied by 3. On top we have the default filtered source config with ATR(8) multiplied by 2 which gives a different yet functionally similar result, below is the same source config instead using IQR(12) multiplied by 2. Notice here the more 'stepped' response from IQR following the central rally, holding back for a while before closing in on price and ultimately initiating reversal much sooner. Unlike ATR, the length parameter for IQR is absolute and can more significantly affect its responsiveness.
Next we focus on the visualisation options, on top we have the default source config with ATR(8) multiplied by 2 and IQR(12) multiplied by 1. Here we have activated the switch to show 'bands', from this we can see the actual summed dynamics and how it influences the stop levels. Below that we have an altogether different config utilising the included filters which are now visible. In this example we have created a basic 8/21 EMA cross and set a 1% TSL, notice the brief fakeout in the middle which ordinarily might indicate a buy signal. Here the TSL functions as an additional requirement which in this case is not met and thus no buy signal is given.
Finally we have a couple of more 'experimental' examples. On top we have Lazybear's 'Variable Moving Average' in white which has been assigned via 'aux' as the centre with no additional filtering, the default config for trigger is used here and a basic TSL of 1.5% added. It's a simple example but it shows how this can be applied to other indicators. At the bottom we return to the default source config, combining a TSL of 8% with IQR(24) multiplied by -2. Note here the negative IQR with greater length which causes the stop to close in on price following significant deviations while otherwise remaining fairly wide. Combining positive and negative multiples of each factor can yield mixed results, some more useful than others depending upon suitable market conditions.
Since this has been quite lengthy, i shall leave it there. Suffice to say that there are plenty more ways to use this besides these examples. Please feel free to share any of your own ideas in the comments below. Enjoy.

Simple RangeThe daily price range is a good proxy to judge an instrument’s volatility. I have combined multiple concepts in this indicator to display information regarding the daily price range & its volatility.
A trading period's range is simply the difference between its high and the low. This script shows the daily high-to-low range of the price as a column chart. It has 3 main components:
1. Narrow-range days (NR7) & Wide-range Days (WR20) - as plot columns
Original concept from Thomas Bulkowski
Modified from "NR4 & NR7 Indicator" script by theapextrader7
Modified from "WR - BC Identifier" script by wrpteam2020
Narrow range days mark price contractions that often precede price expansions. This script uses NR7 (narrow range 7) as a narrow-range day. This value can be changed by the user if, instead of an NR7, he or she wishes to use NR4 or NR21, or any other interval of his or her choice. NR7 is an indecisive trading day in which the range is narrower than any of the previous six days (a total of 7 days). This is a popular concept given by Thomas Bulkowski. A breakout is said to occur when price closes above the top or below the bottom of the NR7. Upside breakout of an NR 7 candle with high volumes indicates bullishness.
Similarly, highs & lows of wide-range bars (on big volumes) are also significant reference levels for price. Wide-range candle are identified by size of the body candle (open - close). The script compares the size of previous 20 candles to identify WR20 candles. This value can also be changed by the user.
The script shows NR7 & WR20 as orange & blue bars, respectively.
The user can also turn on the option to identify a big high-to-low range candle greater than a pre-defined threshold (default is 5%). These show up as green or red bars.
2. TTM Squeeze - as background
Original concept from John Carter's book "Mastering the Trade"
Based on "Squeeze Momentum Indicator" script by LazyBear
John Carter’s TTM Squeeze indicator looks at the relationship between Bollinger Bands and Keltner's Channels to help identify period of volatility contractions. Bollinger Bands being completely enclosed within the Keltner Channels is indicative of a very low volatility. This is a state of volatility contraction known as squeeze. Using different ATR lengths (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0) for Keltner Channels, we can differentiate between levels of squeeze (High, Mid & Low compression, respectively). Greater the compression, higher the potential for explosive moves.
In the script, the High, Mid & Low compression squeezes are depicted via the background color being red, orange, or yellow, respectively.
3. Average Daily Range - as table
Original idea by alpine_trader
Modified from "ADR% - Average Daily Range % by MikeC" script by TheScrutiniser
Average Day Range (ADR) tells how much the price moves between the high and low on a given day. This is the day Range, which is then averaged to create ADR. The script uses an average of the last 20 days to calculate the ADR. Unlike ATR (Average True Range), this excludes Gaps.
The script displays the ADR as a % value in a table.
If you want to find stocks that move a lot on an average on most days, then look for stocks that have ADR% of 5% or more.
If you prefer lower volatility stocks, focus on stocks with lower ADR% values, such as 2% or less.
How it comes together
For a bullish "momentum burst", or a velocity trade:
Select stocks with Average Day Range % (ADR) greater than 5
Identify significant reference price levels via highs & lows of WR20 bars (on big volumes)
Wait for a decent mid-to-high compression squeeze
Look for clusters of NR7 candles in the consolidation
Any breakout from this consolidation should be accompanied by more than average (preferably pocket pivot) volumes

Williams Vix Fix ultra complete indicator (Tartigradia)Williams VixFix is a realized volatility indicator developed by Larry Williams, and can help in finding market bottoms.
Indeed, as Williams describe in his paper, markets tend to find the lowest prices during times of highest volatility, which usually accompany times of highest fear. The VixFix is calculated as how much the current low price statistically deviates from the maximum within a given look-back period.
Although the VixFix originally only indicates market bottoms, its inverse may indicate market tops. As masa_crypto writes : "The inverse can be formulated by considering "how much the current high value statistically deviates from the minimum within a given look-back period." This transformation equates Vix_Fix_inverse. This indicator can be used for finding market tops, and therefore, is a good signal for a timing for taking a short position." However, in practice, the Inverse VixFix is much less reliable than the classical VixFix, but is nevertheless a good addition to get some additional context.

V3 MAJOR Update on 1-05-2014
tista merged LazyBear's Black Dots filter in 2020:
Extended by Tartigradia in 10-2022:
* Can select a symbol different from current to calculate vixfix, allows to select SP:SPX to mimic the original VIX index.
* Inverse VixFix (from masa_crypto and web.archive.org)
* VixFix OHLC Bars plot
* Price / VixFix Candles plot (Pro Tip: draw trend lines to find good entry/exit points)
* Add ADX filtering, Minimaxis signals, Minimaxis filtering (from samgozman )
* Convert to pinescript v5
* Allow timeframe selection (MTF)
* Skip off days (more accurate reproduction of original VIX)
* Reorganized, cleaned up code, commented out parts, commented out or removed unused code (eg, some of the KC calculations)
* Changed default Bollinger Band settings to reduce false positives in crypto markets.
Set Index symbol to SPX, and index_current = false, and timeframe Weekly, to reproduce the original VIX as close as possible by the VIXFIX (use the Add Symbol option, because you want to plot CBOE:VIX on the same timeframe as the current chart, which may include extended session / weekends). With the Weekly timeframe, off days / extended session days should not change much, but with lower timeframes this is important, because nights and weekends can change how the graph appears and seemingly make them different because of timing misalignment when in reality they are not when properly aligned.
Wavetrend DivergencesCreated for the MarketCipher Community and friends :)
This indicator is partly based on Wavetrend Oscillator by LazyBear / blue momentum waves on MarketCipher B.
The Wavetrend indicator is a combination of 2 oscillator lines that signals the short term direction of the price once the lines cross. The Wavetrend indicator is useful but only once a divergence has been identified based on the crosses and the price which is what this strategy partly uses to open trades. This indicator signals divergences in the wavetrend, both regular and hidden divergences.
This indicator utilizes support and resistances to make sure that the indicator only signals high probability winning divergences. Supports represents a low level a stock price reaches over time, while resistance represents a high level a stock price reaches over time. Support materializes when a stock price drops to a level that prompts traders to buy. This reactionary buying causes a stock price to stop dropping and start rising and this is where the indicator will be looking for a divergence at a price point of your choosing.
To make it easier i have added a support and resistance drawing indicator that will help you find price points on the chart that the price is likely to get a reaction from. There are right now only 4 support or resistances that can be drawn at one time so make sure to update the levels as the market changes.
I have helped update and modify from the original script. Here it is:
On top of these indicators i have added my own indicator that will signal a short term trend reversal that is based on pivot points and moving averages. This will usually signal reversals earlier than divergences and is very effective when following the trend and using support and resistances and can be used as an extra confirmation that there will be a reaction from the support or resistance and that the divergence will play out like you want it to. These trend reversal dots can also be used to take profit.
Trade setup example:
As seen in the picture below price comes down to a previously drawn support line, then there is a trend reversal dot that signal a potential reversal and finally a divergence is signalled once there is a clear reaction to the support. When all these signals come together there is a high probability that the trade will end up in profit. To take profit in this trade setup you can use the trend reversal dots, the drawn resistances or your own intuition and technical analysis with Marketcipher B and DBSI. A stop loss in this trade setup could be at the swing low, below the blue or teal line.
There are alerts for everything so that you wont miss a trade setup. Hope you like it :)
I have some ideas on how to improve the indicator so there will be updates in the future.
OBV with Volume/Momentum DivergenceCredits go to vyperphi696 and LazyBear for the original OBV with Divergence script.
This indicator has the new option to check for momentum divergence, which I have done by adding RSI and MACD data.
Hence the indicator allows combined testing of volume and momentum divergence. This feature aims to improve trend reversal detection by reducing false positives.
In summary, 3 divergence categories are shown by default as lines:
Volume + RSI + MACD (dark green/red)
Volume + RSI / Volume + MACD (light green/red)
Volume (gray)
Line colors can be adjusted via plot settings. Therefore it is also possible to distinguish Volume + RSI and Volume + MACD divergence if necessary.
Lastly, I edited the indicator scaling mechanism when changing from one timeframe to another; the transitions are smoother now. This only applies when auto-scaling is off.
WaveTrend with Crosses [LazyBear]Here we can more clearly see the correlation between the WaveTrend indices
Bollinger but BetterA better Bollinger Band with an average of 20 EMAs as pivot price, which makes its standard deviation way more sensitive compared to traditional Bollinger Band.
-- My Tips --
Long flat convergence suggests a big potential price movement.
Short quick convergence of short supportive ema(default: 10days) and upper band suggests a safe middle entry point.
Recommended auxiliary indicator: Wavetrend by Lazybear, which points out entry and exit points quite accurately in bull market.
-- PS --
This system is a hybrid of EMA Ribbons and Bollinger Band.
Squeeze Momentum 3# Squeeze Momentum 3
First of All, I would like to give my gratitude to for the initital script's idea.
This is my own version of SQZMOM. I had revised all equations and parameters according to Investopedia.
Still, no matter how much we stick to the indicator, the indicator can not see the future.
Trading results vary from time to time. In my opinion, SQZMOM is great for speculating under 4H timeframe.
Remarks;
- implement horizontal shift
- revised all equations. Unfortunately, there is no magic params.
- Be careful with your money management
- Good Luck

HLC True Strength Indicator (with Vix)HLC True Strength Indicator Volume Weighted with Vix Line by SpreadEagle71
This indicator is a True Strength Indicator with Close, High and Low used together, along with the TSI of the Vix.
The white line is the close. The red line is the lows and the blue is the highs. These are also volume-weighted.
How to Interpret:
1. zero line crosses. If SPY/SPX500 crosses the zero line, then its bullish. If the purple Vix line crosses up, watch out because this is bearish.
2. white/blue/red lines cross purple (Vix). If they cross upwards, this is bullish. If downward, this is bearish. Basically, SPX, ES1!, SPY or even DIA can be used. The security and the Vix should travel in opposite directions and cross the zero-line at the same time. But this is not always the case.
3. Black area infills. These are used between the close and the highs (blue) and the lows(red). Close should not be between these in order to have momentum.
4. Close (white line) leads. Close is the last price so it tends to show where the others (highs and lows) are going. If the close is sagging below a high where the blue lines are on top, this could mean that there is a reversal coming. Same holds true for a white line above a "valley" formed by the blue and red lines; it could mean a reversal to the upside soon.
5. The Black Infill areas as a squeeze or contraction/expansion area. The thinner the black infill areas, the more of a momentum "squeeze" could be present. Wide black infill areas mean increased volatility and what may come next is a reversion to the mean for volatility. See TTM Squeeze Indicator or the Squeeze Momentum Indicator (kudos LazyBear).
Lastly, just remember indicators indicate; they are not magic. :)

Z distance from VWAP Variation (jkf)This is a variation from LazyBear's Z-Distance from VWAP.
I use 3 different timeframes, where shorter term timeframes above longer term signals bullish.
Upper and lower bounds can impact too. Persistently high or low values will null the readings. So watch for that.
Squeeze M + ADX + TTM (Trading Latino & John Carter) by [Rolgui]About this indicator:
This indicator aims to combine two good performing strategies, which can be used separately or together, mainly for investment positions, although it can also be used for intraday trading.
Strategy 1) Squeeze Oscillator and Average Directional Index:
This strategy is taught by Jaime Aibsai, which determines market entries based on reading the direction of the price movement (Directionality of the Oscillator) along with the strength of the Oscillator (Slope of the ADX).
Both tools are configured according to Jaime Abisai's strategy, by default (note that point 23 of the ADX is represented by point 0 on the panel, to make reading easier, its interpretation is not affected). Anyway you can adjust the input data according to your interest.
*You can see this setting in the first panel.
Strategy 2) Squeeze Momentum and Trade The Market Waves:
This strategy can be consulted either in John F. Carter's books or on his website.
This market reading is based on Price Volatility (Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels interaction) and its Trend (Exponential Moving Averages), showing entries at times when price volatility is low and taking filtering active trend using T.T.M. Waves.
To configure the indicator in the same way that Carter does, it would be enough to turn off the ADX, turn on the Squeeze Momentum signals along with the T.T.M. Waves, and importantly, change the Linear Momentum value to 12 (this configuration can be found in his book).
*You can see this setting in the second panel.
Why this indicator?
I've added and removed the above flags as I needed to query them (which became tedious for me). The main objective of having merged them into one is to make their reading more agile and comfortable and thus improve the decision-making capacity of the trader who wishes to use them.
Credits and Acknowledgments:
I would like to give credits to other authors, for the sections of code that I have used to make this technical indicator. Thanks to @LazyBear, @matetaronna, @jombie and @joren for contributing to the community and keeping their code open. It is priceless!
Feel free to combine and practice your trading with both strategies, personally, they improved my profitability and this is why I recommend researching more about them. I've been using it for crypto investing, let me know if it's worth for you on stock market!
If you have any questions or suggestions you can leave it in the comments!
Greetings!
Unique Moving AveragesThese are Unique Variable Moving Averages based off an idea from LazyBear that use volatility in determining a smoothing constant. The twist is that this script uses the extremity of a Volume based RSI reading (of various lengths for each band) to determine the length of each moving average. The potential lengths for each band increase exponentially, meaning the green band will always be faster than yellow, and yellow faster than red.
For this reason I was unable to allow user inputs to control lengths of the averages, but I did give controls to a multiplier for this function. Basically if you want them to move faster, input a value less than 1, and if you want them to move slower input a number larger than 1. I would only recommend that if you are going to change this multiplier then use the same value for all three bands.
In essence, this indicator makes needlessly complex calculations to derive these averages yet is almost overly simple to use. It uses a smoothing constant derived from volatility and then determines how closely to follow price based on volume backed price movement.
I have had success in trading the crossovers, and current backtests look promising. One of my favorite trading methods with this indicator is to pick two of the averages and trade the crossover, then use the quicker average as a trailing stop. For Example, if the yellow crosses above the red; initiate a long trade at which point the yellow line becomes the trailing stop. The same would apply for the yellow / green pair.
Let me know if you find it useful or if you have any ideas for backtesting.
Have a good day!
Oscillators Overlay w/ Divergencies/Alerts by DGTAn oscillator is a technical analysis tool that, simply said, gauge momentum, determine market trend direction and duration. For some oscillators, fluctuations are bounded by some upper and lower band, and traders use them to discover short-term overbought or oversold conditions.
Oscillators are often combined with moving average indicators to signal trend breakouts or reversals
Histogram, is the difference between the oscillator and signal lines, which oscillates above and below a center line and is used as a good indication of an asset's momentum
What to look for
- Signal Line Crossover is the most common signal produced by the oscillators
- Zero Line Crossovers have a very similar premise to Signal Line Crossovers
- Divergence , when the oscillator and actual price are not in agreement, is another signal created by the oscillators
- Overbought and Oversold , with any range-bound oscillator, conditions are a primary signal generated
Oscillators Overlay study
* Presents oscillators on top of the mian chart (price chart)
* A single indicator for many well known and custom oscillators
* Divergence detection
* Alerts for various condtions
The list of oscillators included;
- Awesome Oscillator (AO)
- Chaikin Oscillator (Chaikin Osc)
- Commodity Channel Index (CCI)
- Distance Oscillator
- Elder-Ray Bear and Bull Power
- Elliott Wave Oscillator (EWO)
- Klinger Oscillator
- Money Flow Index (MFI)
- Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
- Rate Of Change (ROC)
- Relative Strength Index (RSI)
- Stochastic (Stoch)
- Stochastic RSI (Stoch RSI)
- Volume Oscillator (Volume Osc)
- Wave Trend
In technical analysis, investors find oscillators to be important technical tools and consider them more effective when used in conjunction with other means of technical analysis

Honey CypherHoney Cypher Aims to do 4 things
Momentum
Trend Strength
Overbought and oversold zones
Being the most beautiful indicator you ever see
Momentum
The big yellow honey waves primary use is to see the momentum of the market, they can be used in a similar way you would use a MACD or Chaikin Money Flow
On this image you see the honey waves being plotted to the 30 minute timeframe while on the 5 minute chart to have an understanding of longer time momentum in the chart.
Trend Strength
Most tools of the indicator can be used for that but the yellow and purple slope strength lines are made specificaly for this. When you see them curl down you know trend is strengthening towards the downside.
The candle color is based on the amount of Honey waves sloping in one direction. This might be the best tool in the indicator to find Trend Strength. Bright yellow candles mean strong bears while the bright blue candles mean strong bulls.
Overbought and oversold zones
By analysing the waves on a chart you start to learn how big waves can get before a reversal or consolidation period arrives.
You can become profitable with the indicator. But to be honest, my primary focus in making this indicator was find ways to visualise alot of data in a clear and beautiful way.
You should use the indicator with some out of the box ideas instead of just trusting the signals.
examples:
Find a head and shoulders pattern on the top of a huge honey wave.
Find a bottom small wave while the others honey waves are in the opposite direction for entering a pullback.
Use the honey for direction but the yellow and purple slope line crosses for entrys.
Comment your own strategys, I made this open source to be able to get community feedback.
The Honey Cypher waves are calculated in a similar way as the MACD histogram. I've combined MACD formula with some of the lazybear formula. It looks for the distance between 2 moving averages to find trend strength. After that the end results get's smoothed out. It is very satisfying to change that as you can see the honey waves create a melting like motion on each change of smoothing.
Below a preview of the honey cypher moving average lines, all lines have a length that is based on the fibonacci number sequence. Honey cypher measures the distance between for example length 5-8 averages.
I hope this inspires coders to create very beautiful scripts.
Multiple MTF Variable Moving Average by HassonyaVMA(Variable Moving Average) automatically adjusts its smoothing constant on the basis of Market Volatility.
Use VMA like other Moving Averages. This indicator lazybear's variable moving average has been upgraded and arranged in multi-time frame.
There are 5 variable moving averages whose periods can be changed.
Trend Direction Colors: GREEN COLOR = UpTrend, BLUE COLOR = Potential Congestion, RED COLOR = DownTrend.
If you want, you can use multi-time frame period breakouts
If you want, you can use moving average breakouts of different lengths in the same period.
In this way, you can use 5 moving moving averages in the same period or in different periods.
To activate, go to settings and activate the box to the left of the name. If you uncheck the box, the moving average will disappear.
Stay with the trade and investment. I wish you abundance.
MACD ScaledMACD scaled and re-centered for 0-100 range (user adjustable)
+ Leader
+ Stochastic RSI
Details: A simple MACD re-centered to 50 lines rather than 0 line. Also added MACD Leader and Stochastic RSI to show possible usefulness of re-scaling the MACD.
NOTE: Due to nature of MACD, could not get the lines cannot be contained within top/bottom borders without excess distortion.
Credit to lazybear for leader formula.
Cipher & DivergenceFor a long time I've been using complicated script with too much informations in it.
In this one I try to have just the bare minimum information to be able to analyse and find a potential reversal zone.
It is inspired from different wave trend / cipher script but has been tuned after months of backtest.
Extending the usage of the wave trend oscillator, which can be used with overbuy & oversell zone it might be better to wait for a confirmation of the movement. This confirmation can be identified by a pull back of the wave trend & price.
We can even confort ourself by waiting for reversal indicators.
Reversal may occurs after a divergence, wait for it, a cross of zero line followed by a PB to find your entry.
You can setup alert on bear / bull divergence but also when the wave trend cross the zero line to never miss a potential trade.
Huge thanks to LazyBear for his wave trend
And thanks vumanchu for his huge cipher script which was very useful for divergence finder
Multi-Timeframe Squeeze Pro/DIM/Momentum/MAIMPORTANT NOTE:
-> The table will not display any timeframes lower than the current one
-> This indicator combine multiple popular indicators and give ability to use them on Multiple timeframes (MFT)
-> Indicators used for the MFT are: Squeeze / Momentum / 10X DIM and Stacked MA (or EMA)
-> Give at glance a good way to see the trend all different timeframes
-> If you are using in combination with squeeze pro please use the one from @Beardy_Fred since it matches the colours and condition used
Credits :
-> J. Welles Wilder creating the Directional Movement System (DMS) (1978); and
-> John Carter applying the DMS to create the popular Simpler Trading 10X Bars indicator.
-> @Beardy_Fred creating a first version including MOM and SQZ
-> Makit0's evolution of Lazybear's script to factor in the TTM Squeeze Pro upgrades - Squeeze PRO Arrows
I have adapted the version from @Beardy_Fred to provide a more complete and customisable indicator while including also the Stacked EMA/MA for further validation
Explanation:
You can learn more about each indicators following those links:
Squeeze Pro:
10X:
Momentum Histogram:
The stacked EMA/MA highlights when the MA/EMA are in order:
Red when they are stacked from the highest to the lowest
Green when they are stacked from the lowest to the highest
Yellow when they are stacked without a clear order
Customisation:
You can customise:
Timeframes
Settings for each indicators (10X/MA/Momentum/Squeeze)
Colors
Visibility
Trade Signals:
If you are going Long, Since this is a combination ideally on the timeframe you are trading you should have all green + green on the above timeframes (those colors are the default ones but can be changed)
-> Green on 10X indicator meaning you are in an uptrend
-> EMA or MA (depending on the configuration of the indicator) Green meaning EMA or MA
-> Squeeze should be Orange or Red ideally (indicating an high or medium Squeeze)
