Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)# Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)
## Advanced Multi-Dimensional Mathematical Analysis System
*Where Quantum Mathematics Meets Market Structure*
---
## 🎓 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
The Tensor Market Analysis Engine represents a revolutionary synthesis of three cutting-edge mathematical frameworks that have never before been combined for comprehensive market analysis. This indicator transcends traditional technical analysis by implementing advanced mathematical concepts from quantum mechanics, information theory, and fractal geometry.
### 🌊 Multi-Dimensional Volatility with Jump Detection
**Hawkes Process Implementation:**
The TMAE employs a sophisticated Hawkes process approximation for detecting self-exciting market jumps. Unlike traditional volatility measures that treat price movements as independent events, the Hawkes process recognizes that market shocks cluster and exhibit memory effects.
**Mathematical Foundation:**
```
Intensity λ(t) = μ + Σ α(t - Tᵢ)
```
Where market jumps at times Tᵢ increase the probability of future jumps through the decay function α, controlled by the Hawkes Decay parameter (0.5-0.99).
**Mahalanobis Distance Calculation:**
The engine calculates volatility jumps using multi-dimensional Mahalanobis distance across up to 5 volatility dimensions:
- **Dimension 1:** Price volatility (standard deviation of returns)
- **Dimension 2:** Volume volatility (normalized volume fluctuations)
- **Dimension 3:** Range volatility (high-low spread variations)
- **Dimension 4:** Correlation volatility (price-volume relationship changes)
- **Dimension 5:** Microstructure volatility (intrabar positioning analysis)
This creates a volatility state vector that captures market behavior impossible to detect with traditional single-dimensional approaches.
### 📐 Hurst Exponent Regime Detection
**Fractal Market Hypothesis Integration:**
The TMAE implements advanced Rescaled Range (R/S) analysis to calculate the Hurst exponent in real-time, providing dynamic regime classification:
- **H > 0.6:** Trending (persistent) markets - momentum strategies optimal
- **H < 0.4:** Mean-reverting (anti-persistent) markets - contrarian strategies optimal
- **H ≈ 0.5:** Random walk markets - breakout strategies preferred
**Adaptive R/S Analysis:**
Unlike static implementations, the TMAE uses adaptive windowing that adjusts to market conditions:
```
H = log(R/S) / log(n)
```
Where R is the range of cumulative deviations and S is the standard deviation over period n.
**Dynamic Regime Classification:**
The system employs hysteresis to prevent regime flipping, requiring sustained Hurst values before regime changes are confirmed. This prevents false signals during transitional periods.
### 🔄 Transfer Entropy Analysis
**Information Flow Quantification:**
Transfer entropy measures the directional flow of information between price and volume, revealing lead-lag relationships that indicate future price movements:
```
TE(X→Y) = Σ p(yₜ₊₁, yₜ, xₜ) log
```
**Causality Detection:**
- **Volume → Price:** Indicates accumulation/distribution phases
- **Price → Volume:** Suggests retail participation or momentum chasing
- **Balanced Flow:** Market equilibrium or transition periods
The system analyzes multiple lag periods (2-20 bars) to capture both immediate and structural information flows.

MTF Levels [OmegaTools]📖 Introduction
The Ω Levels Indicator is a complete market structure and level-mapping framework designed to help traders identify key zones where price is likely to react.
It blends classic technical anchors (VWAP, pivots, means, standard deviations) with modern statistical pattern recognition to dynamically project areas of manipulation, extension, and equilibrium.
At its core, Ω Levels creates an evolving map of market balance vs. imbalance, showing traders where liquidity is most likely to build and where price could pivot or accelerate.
But what makes it truly unique is the Pivot Forecaster — an embedded predictive engine that applies machine-learning inspired logic to recognize conditions that historically precede market turning points.
🔎 Key Features
Customizable Levels Framework
Define up to three levels (manipulation, extensions, VWAP, pivots, stdev bands, or prior extremes).
Choose mean references such as Open, VWAP, Pivot Mean, or Previous Session Mean.
Style controls (solid, dotted, dashed) and fill modes (internal, external, ranges) allow you to adapt the chart to your visual workflow.
Dynamic Zone Highlighting
Automatic fills between internal/external levels, or between specific level pairs (1–2, 1–3, 2–3).
Makes it easy to visualize value areas, expansions, and compression zones at a glance.
Multi-Timeframe Anchoring
Works on any timeframe, but calculations can be anchored to a higher timeframe (e.g., show daily VWAP & pivots on a 15m chart).
This allows traders to align intraday execution with higher timeframe context.
Pivot Forecaster (Machine Learning / Pattern Recognition)
This is the advanced predictive component.
The algorithm collects historical conditions observed around pivot highs and lows (volume state, ATR state, % candle expansion, oscillator conditions).
It then builds statistical “profiles” of typical pivot behavior and compares them in real-time against current market conditions.
When conditions match the “signature” of a pivot, the indicator highlights a Forecast Pivot High or Forecast Pivot Low (displayed as small diamond markers).
This functions as a pattern-recognition system, effectively learning from past pivots to anticipate where the next turning point is more likely to occur.
⚡ How Traders Can Use It
Intraday Execution: Use VWAP, manipulation, and extension levels to frame trades around liquidity zones.
Swing Context: Overlay higher timeframe pivots and means to guide medium-term positioning.
Fade Setups: Forecasted pivots often coincide with exhaustion zones where fading momentum carries edge.
Breakout Validation: When price breaks a structural level but the forecaster does not confirm a pivot, continuation probability is higher.
Risk Management: Levels provide natural stop/target placements, while pivot forecasts serve as warning signals for potential reversals.
⚙️ Settings Overview
Timeframe: Choose the anchor timeframe for calculations (default: Daily).
Means: Two selectable mean references (Open, VWAP, Pivot Point, Previous Mean).
Levels: Three levels can be customized (Manipulation, Extension, 1–2 StDev, Pivot Point, VWAP, Previous Extremes).
Fill Modes: Highlight zones between internal/external levels or custom ranges.
Visual Customization: Colors, line styles, fill opacity, and toggle for old levels.
Pivot Forecaster: Fully automated — no settings required, it adapts to instrument and timeframe.
🧭 Best Practices
Align Levels With Market Profile: Treat the levels as dynamic S/R zones and watch how price interacts with them.
Use Forecaster as Confirmation: The diamonds are not standalone signals; they are context filters that help you decide whether a move has higher reversal odds.
Higher Timeframe Anchoring: On intraday charts, set the timeframe to Daily or Weekly to trade with institutional levels.
Combine With ATR: Pair with the Ω ATR Indicator to size positions according to volatility while Ω Levels provides the structural roadmap.
📌 Summary
The Ω Levels Indicator is more than a level plotter — it’s a market map + predictive engine.
By combining traditional levels with an intelligent pivot forecaster, it gives traders both the static structure of where price should react, and the dynamic signal of where it is likely to react next.
This dual-layer approach — structural + predictive — makes it an invaluable tool for discretionary intraday traders, swing traders, and anyone who wants to anticipate price behavior instead of just reacting to it.

PURPOSE AND ORIGINALITY
Why This Indicator Was Developed
• Addresses the gap between retail and institutional analysis methods
• Consolidates multiple analysis techniques that professionals use separately
• Automates complex market structure evaluation into actionable insights
• Eliminates the need for multiple indicators by providing comprehensive analysis
What Makes SMPS Original
• Six-Layer Confluence System - Unique combination of market regime, structure, volume flow, momentum, price action, and adaptive filtering
• Institutional Pattern Recognition - Identifies smart money accumulation and distribution patterns
• Adaptive Intelligence - Parameters automatically adjust based on detected market conditions
• Real-Time Market Scoring - Proprietary algorithm rates market quality from 0-100%
• Structure Break Detection - Advanced pivot analysis identifies trend reversals early
---
HOW IT WORKS - TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY
1. Market Regime Analysis Engine
The indicator evaluates five core market dimensions:
• Volatility Score - Measures current volatility against 50-period historical baseline
• Trend Score - Analyzes alignment between 8, 21, and 50-period EMAs
• Momentum Score - Combines RSI divergence with MACD signal alignment
• Structure Score - Evaluates pivot point formation clarity
• Efficiency Score - Calculates directional movement efficiency ratio
These scores combine to classify markets into five regimes:
• TRENDING - Strong directional movement with aligned indicators
• RANGING - Sideways movement with mixed directional signals
• VOLATILE - Elevated volatility with unpredictable price swings
• QUIET - Low volatility consolidation periods
• TRANSITIONAL - Market shifting between different regimes
2. Market Structure Analysis
Advanced pivot point analysis identifies:
• Higher Highs and Higher Lows for bullish structure
• Lower Highs and Lower Lows for bearish structure
• Structure breaks when established patterns fail
• Dynamic support and resistance from recent pivot points
• Key level proximity detection using ATR-based buffers
3. Volume Flow Decoding
Institutional activity detection through:
• Volume surge identification when volume exceeds 2x average
• Buy versus sell pressure analysis using price-volume correlation
• Flow strength measurement through directional volume consistency
• Divergence detection between volume and price movements
• Institutional threshold alerts when unusual volume patterns emerge
4. Multi-Period Momentum Synthesis
Weighted momentum calculation across four timeframes:
• 1-period momentum weighted at 40%
• 3-period momentum weighted at 30%
• 5-period momentum weighted at 20%
• 8-period momentum weighted at 10%
Result smoothed with 6-period EMA for noise reduction.
5. Price Action Quality Assessment
Each bar evaluated for:
• Range quality relative to 20-period average
• Body-to-range ratio for directional conviction
• Wick analysis for rejection pattern identification
• Pattern recognition including engulfing and hammer formations
• Sequential price movement analysis
6. Adaptive Parameter System
Parameters automatically adjust based on detected regime:
• Trending markets reduce sensitivity and confirmation requirements
• Volatile markets increase filtering and require additional confirmations
• Ranging markets maintain neutral settings
• Transitional markets use moderate adjustments

The indicator is built on extensive statistical analysis of historical price data using a 42-period Williams fractal lookback period. Our research analyzed which candlestick patterns most frequently appear at genuine market reversal points, quantifying their occurrence rates and subsequent success in predicting reversals.
Key Research Findings:
At Market Tops (Pivot Highs):
- Three White Soldiers: 28.3% occurrence rate
- Spinning Tops: 13.9% occurrence rate
- Inverted Hammers: 11.7% occurrence rate
At Market Bottoms (Pivot Lows):
- Three Black Crows: 28.4% occurrence rate
- Hammers: 13.3% occurrence rate
- Spinning Tops: 13.1% occurrence rate
How It Works
1. Pivot Point Detection
The indicator uses a non-repainting implementation of Williams fractals to identify potential market turning points:
- A pivot high is confirmed when the middle candle's high is higher than surrounding candles within the lookback period
- A pivot low is confirmed when the middle candle's low is lower than surrounding candles within the lookback period
- The default lookback period is 2 candles (user adjustable from 1-10)
2. Candlestick Pattern Recognition
At identified pivot points, the indicator analyzes candle properties using these parameters:
- Body percentage threshold for Spinning Tops: 40% (adjustable from 10-60%)
- Shadow percentage threshold for Hammer patterns: 60% (adjustable from 40-80%)
- Maximum upper shadow for Hammer: 10% (adjustable from 5-20%)
- Maximum lower shadow for Inverted Hammer: 10% (adjustable from 5-20%)
3. Pattern Definitions
The indicator recognizes these specific patterns:
Single-Candle Patterns:
- Spinning Top : Small body (< 40% of total range) with significant upper and lower shadows (> 25% each)
- Hammer : Small body (< 40%), very long lower shadow (> 60%), minimal upper shadow (< 10%), closing price above opening price
- Inverted Hammer : Small body (< 40%), very long upper shadow (> 60%), minimal lower shadow (< 10%)
Multi-Candle Patterns:
- Three White Soldiers : Three consecutive bullish candles, each closing higher than the previous, with each open within the previous candle's body
- Three Black Crows : Three consecutive bearish candles, each closing lower than the previous, with each open within the previous candle's body
4. Visual Representation
The indicator provides multiple visualization options:
- Highlighted candle backgrounds for pattern identification
- Text or dot labels showing pattern names and success rates
- Customizable colors for different pattern types
- Real-time alert functionality on pattern detection
- Information dashboard displaying pattern statistics
Why It Works
1. Statistical Edge
Unlike traditional candlestick pattern indicators that simply identify patterns regardless of context, PivotCandlePatterns focuses exclusively on patterns occurring at statistical pivot points, dramatically increasing signal quality.
2. Non-Repainting Design
The pivot detection algorithm only uses confirmed data, ensuring the indicator doesn't repaint or provide false signals that disappear on subsequent candles.
3. Complementary Pattern Selection
The selected patterns have both:
- Statistical significance (high frequency at pivots)
- Logical market psychology (reflecting institutional supply/demand changes)
For example, Three White Soldiers at a pivot high suggests excessive bullish sentiment reaching exhaustion, while Hammers at pivot lows indicate rejection of lower prices and potential buying pressure.
Practical Applications
1. Reversal Trading
The primary use is identifying potential market reversals with statistical probability metrics. Higher percentage patterns (like Three White Soldiers at 28.3%) warrant more attention than lower probability patterns.
2. Confirmation Tool
The indicator works well when combined with other technical analysis methods:
- Support/resistance levels
- Trend line breaks
- Divergences on oscillators
- Volume analysis
3. Risk Management
The built-in success rate metrics help traders properly size positions based on historical pattern reliability. The displayed percentages reflect the probability of the pattern successfully predicting a reversal.
Optimized Settings
Based on extensive testing, the default parameters (Body: 40%, Shadow: 60%, Shadow Maximums: 10%, Lookback: 2) provide the optimal balance between:
- Signal frequency
- False positive reduction
- Early entry opportunities
- Pattern clarity
Users can adjust these parameters based on their timeframe and trading style, but the defaults represent the statistically optimal configuration.
Complementary Research: Reclaim Analysis
Additional research on "reclaim" scenarios (where price briefly breaks a level before returning) showed:
- Fast reclaims (1-2 candles) have 70-90% success rates
- Reclaims with increasing volume have 53.1% success rate vs. decreasing volume at 22.6%
This complementary research reinforces the importance of candle patterns and timing at critical market levels.
Naive Bayes Candlestick Pattern Classifier v1.1 BETAAn intermezzo on why i made this script publication..
A : Candlestick Pattern took hours to backtest, why not using Machine Learning techniques?
B : Machine Learning, no that's gonna be really heavy bro!
A : Not really, because we use Naive Bayes.
B : The simplest, yet powerful machine learning algorithm to separate (a.k.a classify) multivariate data.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello, everyone!
After deep research in extracting meaningful information from the market, I ended up building this powerful machine learning indicator based on the evolution of Bayesian Statistics. This indicator not only leverages the simplicity of Naive Bayes but also extends its application to candlestick pattern analysis, making it an invaluable tool for traders who are looking to enhance their technical analysis without spending countless hours manually backtesting each pattern on each market!.
What most interesting part is actually after learning all of likely useless methods like fibonacci, supply and demand, volume profile, etc. We always ended up back to basic like support and resistance and candlestick patterns, but with a slight twist on strategy algorithm design and statistical approach. Thus, the only reason why i made this, because i exactly know that you guys will ended up in this position as time goes by.
The essence of this indicator lies in its ability to automate the recognition and statistical evaluation of various candlestick patterns. Traditionally, traders have relied on visual inspection and manual backtesting to determine the effectiveness of patterns like Bullish Engulfing, Bearish Engulfing, Harami variations, Hammer formations, and even more complex multi-candle patterns such as Three White Soldiers, Three Black Crows, Dark Cloud Cover, and Piercing Pattern. However, these conventional methods are both time-consuming and prone to subjective bias.
To address these challenges, I employed Naive Bayes—a probabilistic classifier that, despite its simplicity, offers robust performance in various domains. Naive Bayes assumes that each feature is independent of the others given the class label, which, although a strong assumption, works remarkably well in practice, especially when the dataset is large like market data and the feature space is high-dimensional. In our case, each candlestick pattern acts as a feature that can be statistically evaluated based on its historical performance. The indicator calculates a probability that a given pattern will lead to a price reversal, by comparing the pattern’s close price to the highest or lowest price achieved in a lookahead window.
One of the standout features of this script is its flexibility. Each candlestick pattern is not only coded into the system but also comes with individual toggles to enable or disable them based on your trading strategy. This means you can choose to focus on single-candle patterns like Bullish Engulfing or more complex multi-candle formations such as Three White Soldiers, without modifying the core code. The built-in customization options allow you to adjust colors and labels for each pattern, giving you the freedom to tailor the visual output to your preference. This level of customization ensures that the indicator integrates seamlessly into your existing TradingView setup.
Moreover, the indicator isn’t just about pattern recognition—it also incorporates outcome-based learning. Every time a pattern is detected, it looks ahead a predefined number of bars to evaluate if the expected reversal actually materialized. This outcome is then stored in arrays, and over time, the script dynamically calculates the probability of success for each pattern. These probabilities are presented in a real-time updating table on your chart, which shows not only the percentage probability but also the count of historical occurrences. With this information at your fingertips, you can quickly gauge the reliability of each pattern in your chosen market and timeframe.
Another significant advantage of this approach is its speed and efficiency. While more complex machine learning models like neural networks might require heavy computational resources and longer training times, the Naive Bayes classifier in this script is lightweight, instantaneous and can be updated on the fly with each new bar. This real-time capability is essential for modern traders who need to make quick decisions in fast-paced markets.
Furthermore, by automating the process of backtesting, the indicator frees up your time to focus on other aspects of trading strategy development. Instead of manually analyzing hundreds or even thousands of candles, you can rely on the statistical power of Naive Bayes to provide you with insights on which patterns are most likely to result in profitable moves. This not only enhances your efficiency but also helps to eliminate the cognitive biases that often plague manual analysis.
In summary, this indicator represents a fusion of traditional candlestick analysis with modern machine learning techniques. It harnesses the simplicity and effectiveness of Naive Bayes to deliver a dynamic, real-time evaluation of various candlestick patterns. Whether you are a seasoned trader looking to refine your technical analysis or a beginner eager to understand market dynamics, this tool offers a powerful, customizable, and efficient solution. Welcome to a new era where advanced statistical methods meet practical trading insights—happy trading and may your patterns always be in your favor!
Note : On this current released beta version, you must manually adjust reversal percentage move based on each market. Further updates may include automated best range detection and probability.
Trend & Strength Detector TSDTrend Strength Detector (TSD)
*Objective Trend Quality Measurement for Educational Market Analysis*
Note: This mathematical framework is a proprietary quantitative model developed by Ario Pinelab, inspired by classical EMA, ADX, RSI and MACD principles, yet not documented in any public technical or academic publication.
## 🎯 Purpose & Design Philosophy
The ** Trend Strength Detector- TSD ** is an educational research tool that provides **quantitative measurement of trend quality** through two independent scoring systems (0-100 scale). It answers the analytical question: *"How strong and aligned is the current market trend environment?"*
This indicator is designed with a **modular, complementary approach** to work alongside various analysis methodologies, particularly pattern-based recognition systems.
## 🔗 Complementary Research Framework
### Designed to Work With Pattern Detection Systems
This indicator provides **environmental context measurement** that complements qualitative pattern recognition tools. It works particularly well alongside systems like:
- **RMBS Smart Detector - Multi-Factor Momentum System**
- Traditional chart pattern analyzers
- Any momentum-based pattern identification tools
🔍 **To find RMBS Smart Detector:**
- Search in TradingView Indicators Library: `" RMBS Smart Detector - Multi-Factor Momentum System"`
- Look for: *Multi-Factor Momentum System*
- By author: ` `
### Why This Complementary Approach?
**Trend Quality Measurement** (TSD - this tool) provides:
- ✅ Structural trend alignment (0-100 score)
- ✅ Momentum intensity levels (0-100 score)
- ✅ Environment classification (Strong/Moderate/Weak)
- 📌 **Answers:** *"HOW STRONG is the underlying trend environment?"*
### Educational Research Value
When used together in a research context, these tools enable systematic study of questions like:
- How do reversal patterns behave when Strength Score is above 70 vs below 30?
- Do continuation patterns in weakening environments (declining scores) show different characteristics?
- What is the correlation between high Alignment Scores and pattern "success rates"?
- Can environment classification help identify genuine trend initiation vs false starts?
⚠️ **Important Note:** Both tools are **independent and work standalone**. TSD provides value whether used alone or with other analysis methods. The relationship with RMBS (or any pattern tool) is **complementary for research purposes**, not dependent.

###Mathematical Foundation
##TSA Formula: scoring method developed by Ario
-Trend Model (0 – 100)
TAS = EMA Alignment (0–40) + Price Position (0–30) + Trend Consistency (0–30)
EMA Alignment checks EMA_fast vs EMA_slow vs EMA_trend structure.
Price Position evaluates if Close is above/below all EMAs.
Consistency = 3 × max(bullish,bearish bars within 10 candles).
-Strength Model (0 – 100)
Strength = ADX (0–50) + EMA Slope (0–25) + RSI (0–15) + MACD (0–10)
ADX measures trend energy; Slope shows EMA momentum %;
RSI assesses zone positioning; MACD confirms directional agreement.
Note: This formula represents a proprietary quantitative model by Ario_Pinelab, inspired by classical technical concepts but not published in any external reference.________________________________________

Machine Learning Gaussian Mixture Model | AlphaNattMachine Learning Gaussian Mixture Model | AlphaNatt
A revolutionary oscillator that uses Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) with unsupervised machine learning to identify market regimes and automatically adapt momentum calculations - bringing statistical pattern recognition techniques to trading.
"Markets don't follow a single distribution - they're a mixture of different regimes. This oscillator identifies which regime we're in and adapts accordingly."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🤖 THE MACHINE LEARNING
Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM):
Unlike K-means clustering which assigns hard boundaries, GMM uses probabilistic clustering :
Models data as coming from multiple Gaussian distributions
Each market regime is a different Gaussian component
Provides probability of belonging to each regime
More sophisticated than simple clustering
Expectation-Maximization Algorithm:
The indicator continuously learns and adapts using the E-M algorithm:
E-step: Calculate probability of current market belonging to each regime
M-step: Update regime parameters based on new data
Continuous learning without repainting
Adapts to changing market conditions
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 THREE MARKET REGIMES
The GMM identifies three distinct market states:
Regime 1 - Low Volatility:
Quiet, ranging markets
Uses RSI-based momentum calculation
Reduces false signals in choppy conditions
Background: Pink tint
Regime 2 - Normal Market:
Standard trending conditions
Uses Rate of Change momentum
Balanced sensitivity
Background: Gray tint
Regime 3 - High Volatility:
Strong trends or volatility events
Uses Z-score based momentum
Captures extreme moves
Background: Cyan tint

Instead of binary regime assignment, provides probabilities:
30% Regime 1, 60% Regime 2, 10% Regime 3
Smooth transitions between regimes
No sudden indicator jumps
2. Weighted Momentum Calculation:
Combines three different momentum formulas
Weights based on regime probabilities
Automatically adapts to market conditions
3. Confidence Indicator:
Shows how certain the model is (white line)
High confidence = strong regime identification
Low confidence = transitional market state
Line transparency changes with confidence

📖 Usage Guidelines
⚙️ Settings Guide
Color Settings
Bullish Color
Default: #2b62fa (Blue)
This setting controls the color representation for bullish movements in the oscillator. The color appears when the oscillator value is positive (above zero), with intensity indicating the strength of the bullish momentum. A brighter shade indicates stronger bullish pressure.
Bearish Color
Default: #ce9851 (Amber)
This setting determines the color representation for bearish movements in the oscillator. The color appears when the oscillator value is negative (below zero), with intensity reflecting the strength of the bearish momentum. A more saturated shade indicates stronger bearish pressure.
Signal Settings
Signal Cooldown (bars)
Default: 10
Range: 1-50
This parameter sets the minimum number of bars that must pass before a new signal of the same type can be generated. Higher values reduce signal frequency and help prevent overtrading during choppy market conditions. Lower values increase signal sensitivity but may generate more false positives.
Min Change For New Signal
Default: 1.5
Range: 0.5-3.0
This setting defines the minimum required change in oscillator value between consecutive signals of the same type. It ensures that new signals represent meaningful changes in market conditions rather than minor fluctuations. Higher values produce fewer but potentially higher-quality signals, while lower values increase signal frequency.
AI Core Settings
Base Length
Default: 14
Minimum: 2
This fundamental setting determines the primary calculation period for all technical components in the ensemble (RSI, CCI, Stochastic, etc.). It represents the lookback window for each component’s base calculation. Shorter periods create a more responsive but potentially noisier oscillator, while longer periods produce smoother signals with potential lag.
Adaptive Speed
Default: 0.1
Range: 0.01-0.3
Controls how quickly the oscillator adapts to new market conditions through its volatility-adjusted smoothing mechanism. Higher values make the oscillator more responsive to recent price action but potentially more erratic. Lower values create smoother transitions but may lag during rapid market changes. This parameter directly influences the indicator’s adaptiveness to market volatility.
Learning Lookback Period
Default: 150
Minimum: 10
Determines the historical data range used to evaluate each ensemble component’s performance and calculate adaptive weights. This setting controls how far back the AI “learns” from past performance to optimize current signals. Longer periods provide more stable weight distribution but may be slower to adapt to regime changes. Shorter periods adapt more quickly but may overreact to recent anomalies.
Ensemble Size
Default: 5
Range: 2-5
Specifies how many technical components to include in the ensemble calculation.
Understanding The Interaction Between Settings
Base Length and Learning Lookback : The base length determines the reactivity of individual components, while the lookback period determines how their weights are adjusted. These should be balanced according to your timeframe - shorter timeframes benefit from shorter base lengths, while the lookback should generally be 10-15 times the base length for optimal learning.
Adaptive Speed and Signal Cooldown : These settings control sensitivity from different angles. Increasing adaptive speed makes the oscillator more responsive, while reducing signal cooldown increases signal frequency. For conservative trading, keep adaptive speed low and cooldown high; for aggressive trading, do the opposite.
Ensemble Size and Min Change : Larger ensembles provide more stable signals, allowing for a lower minimum change threshold. Smaller ensembles might benefit from a higher threshold to filter out noise.
Understanding Signal Confidence Levels
The indicator provides three distinct confidence levels for both bullish and bearish signals:
Average Confidence (▲ or ▼) : Basic signal that meets the minimum pattern and filtering criteria. These signals indicate potential reversals but with moderate confidence in the prediction. Consider using these as initial alerts that may require additional confirmation.
Above Average Confidence (▲+ or ▼+) : Higher reliability signal with stronger underlying metrics. These signals demonstrate greater consensus among the ensemble components and/or stronger historical performance. They offer increased probability of successful reversals and can be traded with less additional confirmation.
Excellent Confidence (▲++ or ▼++) : Highest quality signals with exceptional underlying metrics. These signals show strong agreement across oscillator components, excellent historical performance, and optimal signal strength. These represent the indicator’s highest conviction trade opportunities and can be prioritized in your trading decisions.
Confidence assessment is calculated through a multi-factor analysis including:
Historical performance of ensemble components
Degree of agreement between different oscillator components
Relative strength of the signal compared to historical thresholds
✅ Best Use Cases:
Identify potential market reversals through oscillator extremes
Filter trade signals based on AI-evaluated component weights
Monitor changing market conditions through oscillator direction and intensity
Confirm trade signals from other indicators with adaptive ensemble validation
Detect early momentum shifts through pattern recognition
Prioritize trading opportunities based on signal confidence levels
Adjust position sizing according to signal confidence (larger for ++ signals, smaller for standard signals)
⚠️ Limitations
Requires sufficient historical data for accurate performance scoring
Ensemble weights may lag during dramatic market condition changes
Higher ensemble sizes require more computational resources
Performance evaluation quality depends on the learning lookback period length
Even high confidence signals should be considered within broader market context
💡 What Makes This Unique
Adaptive Intelligence : Continuously adjusts component weights based on actual performance
Ensemble Methodology : Combines strength of multiple indicators while minimizing individual weaknesses
Volatility-Adjusted Smoothing : Provides appropriate sensitivity across different market conditions
Performance-Based Learning : Utilizes historical accuracy to improve future predictions
Intelligent Signal Filtering : Reduces noise and false signals through sophisticated filtering criteria

Overview
A vast majority of modern data analysis & modelling techniques rely upon the idea of hidden patterns, wether it is some type of visualisation tool or some form of a complex machine learning algorithm, the one thing that they have in common is the belief, that patterns tell us what’s hidden behind plain numbers. The same philosophy has been adopted by many traders & investors worldwide, there’s an entire school of thought that operates purely based on chart patterns. This is where Sniffer comes in, it is a tool designed to simplify & quantify the job of pattern recognition on any given price chart, by combining various factors & techniques that generate high-quality results.
This tool analyses bars selected by the user, and highlights bar clusters on the chart that exhibit similar behaviour across multiple dimensions. It can detect a single candle pattern like hammers or dojis, or it can handle multiple candles like morning/evening stars or double tops/bottoms, and many more. In fact, the tool is completely independent of such specific candle formations, instead, it works on the idea of vector similarity and generates a degree of similarity for every single combination of candles. Only the top-n matches are highlighted, users get to choose which patterns they want to analyse and to what degree, by customising the feature-space.
Background
In the world of trading, a common use-case is to scan a price chart for some specific candlestick formations & price structures, and then the chart is further analysed in reference to these events. Traders are often trying to answer questions like, when was the last time price showed similar behaviour, what are the instances similar to what price is doing right now, what happens when price forms a pattern like this, what were some of other indicators doing when this happened last(RSI, CCI, ADX etc), and many other abstract ideas to have a stronger confluence or to confirm a bias.Having such a context can be vital in making better informed decisions, but doing this manually on a chart that has thousands of candles can have many disadvantages. It’s tedious, human errors are rather likely, and even if it’s done with pin-point accuracy, chances are that we’ll miss out on many pieces of information. This is the thought that gave birth to Sniffer .
Sniffer tries to provide a general solution for pattern-based analysis by deploying vector-similarity computation techniques, that cover the full-breadth of a price chart and generate a list of top-n matches based on the criteria selected by the user. Most of these techniques come from the data science space, where vector similarity is often implemented to solve classification & clustering problems. Sniffer uses same principles of vector comparison, and computes a degree of similarity for every single candle formation within the selected range, and as a result generates a similarity matrix that captures how similar or dissimilar a set of candles is to the input set selected by the user.
How It Works
A brief overview of how the tool is implemented:
- Every bar is processed, and a set of features are mapped to it.
- Bars selected by the user are captured, and saved for later use.
- Once the all the bars have been processed, candles are back-tracked and degree of similarity is computed for every single bar(max-limit is 5000 bars).
- Degree of similarity is computed by comparing attributes like price range, candle breadth & volume etc.
- Similarity matrix is sorted and top-n results are highlighted on the chart through boxes of different colors.
A brief overview of the features space for bars:
- Range: Difference between high & low
- Body: Difference between close & open
- Volume: Traded volume for that candle
- Head: Upper wick for green candles & lower wick for red candles
- Tail: Lower wick for green candles & upper wick for red candles
- BTR: Body to Range ratio
- HTR: Head to Range ratio
- TTR: Tail to Range ratio
- HTB: Head to Body ratio
- TTB: Tail to Body ratio
- ROC: Rate of change for HL2 for four different periods
- RSI: Relative Strength Index
- CCI: Commodity Channel Index
- Stochastic: Stochastic Index
- ADX: DMI+, DMI- & ADX
A brief overview of how degree of similarity is calculated:
- Each bar set is compared to the inout bar set within the selected feature space
- Features are represented as vectors, and distance between the vectors is calculated
- Shorter the distance, greater the similarity
- Different distance calculation methods are available to choose from, such as Cosine, Euclidean, Lorentzian, Manhattan, & Pearson
- Each method is likely to generate slightly different results, users are expected to select the method & the feature space that best fits their use-case
How To Use It
- Usage of this tool is relatively straightforward, users can add this indicator to their chart and similar clusters will be highlighted automatically
- Users need to select a time range that will be treated as input, and bars within that range become the input formation for similarity calculations
- Boxes will be draw around the clusters that fit the matching criteria
- Boxes are color-coded, green color boxes represent the top one-third of the top-n matches, yellow boxes represent the middle third, red boxes are for bottom third, and white box represents user-input
- Boxes colors will be adjusted as you adjust input parameters, such as number of matches or look-back period
User Settings
Users can configure the following options:
- Select the time-range to set input bars
- Select the look-back period, number of candles to backtrack for similarity search
- Select the number of top-n matches to show on the chart
- Select the method for similarity calculation
- Adjust the feature space, this enables addition of custom features, such as pattern recognition, technical indicators, rate of change etc
- Toggle verbosity, shows degree of similarity as a percentage value inside the box
Top Features
- Pattern Agnostic: Designed to work with variable number of candles & complex patterns
- Customisable Feature Space: Users get to add custom features to each bar
- Comprehensive Comparison: Generates a degree of similarity for all possible combinations
Final Note
- Similarity matches will be shown only within last 4500 bars.
- In theory, it is possible to compute similarity for any size candle formations, indicator has been tested with formations of 50+ candles, but it is recommended to select smaller range for faster & cleaner results.
- As you move to smaller time frames, selected time range will provide a larger number of candles as input, which can produce undesired results, it is advised to adjust your selection when you change time frames. Seeking suggestions on how to directly receive bars as user input, instead of time range.
- At times, users may see array index out of bound error when setting up this indicator, this generally happens when the input range is not properly configured. So, it should disappear after you select the input range, still trying to figure out where it is coming from, suggestions are welcome.

Bjorgum Double Tap█ OVERVIEW
Double Tap is a pattern recognition script aimed at detecting Double Tops and Double Bottoms. Double Tap can be applied to the broker emulator to observe historical results, run as a trading bot for live trade alerts in real time with entry signals, take profit, and stop orders, or to simply detect patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
How Is A Pattern Defined?
Doubles are technical formations that are both reversal patterns and breakout patterns. These formations typically have a distinctive “M” or a “W” shape with price action breaking beyond the neckline formed by the center of the pattern. They can be recognized when a pivot fails to break when tested for a second time and the retracement that follows breaks beyond the key level opposite. This can trap entrants that were playing in the direction of the prior trend. Entries are made on the breakout with a target projected beyond the neckline equal to the height of the pattern.
Pattern Recognition
Patterns are recognized through the use of zig-zag; a method of filtering price action by connecting swing highs and lows in an alternating fashion to establish trend, support and resistance, or derive shapes from price action. The script looks for the highest or lowest point in a given number of bars and updates a list with the values as they form. If the levels are exceeded, the values are updated. If the direction changes and a new significant point is made, a new point is added to the list and the process starts again. Meanwhile, we scan the list of values looking for the distinctive shape to form as previously described.
█ STRATEGY RESULTS
Back Testing
Historical back testing is the most common method to test a strategy due in part to the general ease of gathering quick results. The underlying theory is that any strategy that worked well in the past is likely to work well in the future, and conversely, any strategy that performed poorly in the past is likely to perform poorly in the future. It is easy to poke holes in this theory, however, as for one to accept it as gospel, one would have to assume that future results will match what has come to pass. The randomness of markets may see to it otherwise, so it is important to scrutinize results. Some commonly used methods are to compare to other markets or benchmarks, perform statistical analysis on the results over many iterations and on differing datasets, walk-forward testing, out-of-sample analysis, or a variety of other techniques. There are many ways to interpret the results, so it is important to do research and gain knowledge in the field prior to taking meaningful conclusions from them.
👉 In short, it would be naive to place trust in one good backtest and expect positive results to continue. For this reason, results have been omitted from this publication.
Repainting
Repainting is simply the difference in behaviour of a strategy in real time vs the results calculated on the historical dataset. The strategy, by default, will wait for confirmed signals and is thus designed to not repaint. Waiting for bar close for entires aligns results in the real time data feed to those calculated on historical bars, which contain far less data. By doing this we align the behaviour of the strategy on the 2 data types, which brings significance to the calculated results. To override this behaviour and introduce repainting one can select "Recalculate on every tick" from the properties tab. It is important to note that by doing this alerts may not align with results seen in the strategy tester when the chart is reloaded, and thus to do so is to forgo backtesting and restricts a strategy to forward testing only.
👉 It is possible to use this script as an indicator as opposed to a full strategy by disabling "Use Strategy" in the "Inputs" tab. Basic alerts for detection will be sent when patterns are detected as opposed to complex order syntax. For alerts mid-bar enable "Recalculate on every tick" , and for confirmed signals ensure it is disabled.
█ EXIT ORDERS
Limit and Stop Orders
By default, the strategy will place a stop loss at the invalidation point of the pattern. This point is beyond the pattern high in the case of Double Tops, or beneath the pattern low in the case of Double Bottoms. The target or take profit point is an equal-legs measurement, or 100% of the pattern height in the direction of the pattern bias. Both the stop and the limit level can be adjusted from the user menu as a percentage of the pattern height.
Trailing Stops
Optional from the menu is the implementation of an ATR based trailing stop. The trailing stop is designed to begin when the target projection is reached. From there, the script looks back a user-defined number of bars for the highest or lowest point +/- the ATR value. For tighter stops the user can look back a lesser number of bars, or decrease the ATR multiple. When using either Alertatron or Trading Connector, each change in the trail value will trigger an alert to update the stop order on the exchange to reflect the new trail price. This reduces latency and slippage that can occur when relying on alerts only as real exchange orders fill faster and remain in place in the event of a disruption in communication between your strategy and the exchange, which ensures a higher level of safety.
👉 It is important to note that in the case the trailing stop is enabled, limit orders are excluded from the exit criteria. Rather, the point in time that the limit value is exceeded is the point that the trail begins. As such, this method will exit by stop loss only.
█ ALERTS
Five Built-in 3rd Party Destinations
The following are five options for delivering alerts from Double Tap to live trade execution via third party API solutions or chat bots to share your trades on social media. These destinations can be selected from the input menu and alert syntax will automatically configure in alerts appropriately to manage trades.
Custom JSON
JSON, or JavaScript Object Notation, is a readable format for structuring data. It is used primarily to transmit data between a server and a web application. In regards to this script, this may be a custom intermediary web application designed to catch alerts and interface with an exchange API. The JSON message is a trade map for an application to read equipped with where its been, where its going, targets, stops, quantity; a full diagnostic of the current state and its previous state. A web application could be configured to follow the messages sent in this format and conduct trades in sync with alerts running on the TV server.
Below is an example of a rendered JSON alert:

█ IMPORTANT NOTES
Setting Alerts
For alert messages to be properly delivered on order fills it is necessary to place the following placeholder in the alert message box when creating an alert.
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
This placeholder will auto-populate the alert message with the appropriate syntax that is designated for the 3rd party selected in the user menu.
Order Sizing and Commissions
The values that are sent in alert messages are populated from live metrics calculated by the strategy. This means that the actual values in the "Properties" tab are used and must be set by the user. The initial capital, order size, commission, etc. are all used in the calculations, so it is important to set these prior to executing live trades. Be sure to set the commission to the values used by the exchange as well.
👉 It is important to understand that the calculations on the account size take place from the beginning of the price history of the strategy. This means that if historical results have inflated or depleted the account size from the beginning of trade history until now, the values sent in alerts will reflect the calculated size based on the inputs in the "Properties" tab. To start fresh, the user must set the date in the "Inputs" tab to the current date as to remove trades from the trade history. Failure to follow this instruction can result in an unexpected order size being sent in the alert.
█ FOR PINECODERS
• With the recent introduction of matrices in Pine, the script utilizes a matrix to track pivot points with the bars they occurred on, while tracking if that pivot has been traded against to prevent duplicate detections after a trade is exited.
• Alert messages are populated with placeholders ; capability that previously was only possible in alertcondition() , but has recently been extended to `strategy.*()` functions for use in the `alert_message` argument. This allows delivery of live trade values to populate in strategy alert messages.
• New arguments have been added to strategy.exit() , which allow differentiated messages to be sent based on whether the exit occurred at the stop or the limit. The new arguments used in this script are `alert_profit` and `alert_loss` to send messages to Discord
