Higher Time Frame Average True RangesPurpose: This script will help an options trader asses risk and determine good entry and exit strategies
Background Information: The true range is the greatest of: current high minus the current low; the absolute value of the current high minus the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low minus the previous close. The Average True Range (ATR) is a 14-day moving average of the true range. Traders use the ATR indicator to assess volatility in stocks and decide when to enter and exit trades. It is important to note the limitations of using True Range and ATR: These indications cannot tell you the direction of your options trade (call vs. put) and they cannot tell you whether a particular trend is about to reverse. However, it can be used to assess if volatility has peaked for a particular direction and time period.
How this script works: This indicator calculates true range for the daily (DTR), weekly (WTR), and monthly (MTR) time frames and compares it to the Average True Range (ATR) for each of those time frames (DATR, WATR, and MATR). The comparison is displayed into a colored table in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. When a daily, weekly, or monthly true range reaches 80% of its respective ATR, the row for that time frame will turn Orange indicating medium risk for staying in the trade. If the true range goes above 100% of the respective ATR, then the row will turn Red indicating high risk for staying in the trade. When the row for a time period turns red, volatility for the time period has likely peaked and traders should heavily consider taking profits. It is important to note these calculations start at different times for each time frame: Daily (Today’s Open), Weekly (Monday’s Open), Monthly (First of the Month’s Open). This means if it’s the 15th of the month then the Monthly True Range is being calculated for the trading days in the first half of the month (approximately 10 trade days).
The script also plots three sets of horizontal dotted lines to visually represent the ATR for each time period. Each set is generated by adding and subtracting the daily, weekly, and monthly ATRs from that time periods open price. For example, the weekly ATR is added and subtracted from Mondays open price to visually represent the true range for that week. The DATR is represented by red lines, the WATR is represented by the green lines, and the MATR is represented by the blue lines. These plots could also be used to assess risk as well.
How to use this script: Use the table to assess risk and determine potential exit strategies (Green=Low Risk, Orange=Medium Risk, Red=High Risk. Use the dotted lines to speculate what a stock’s price could be in a given time period (Daily=Red, Weekly=Green, and Monthly=Blue). And don’t forget the true range’s calculation and plots starts at the beginning of each time period!

The image above shows features of the indicator.
For statistics, the following metrics are recorded:
First Quartile
Second Quartile
Third Quartile
90th Percentile
Fourth Quartile
Q2 - Q1 Dispersion
Q3 - Q2 Dispersion
Q4 - Q3 Dispersion
Quartile Deviation

The percent rank for the volume of the current bar
Avg. "n" bar return following "high" volume
Avg. "n" bar positive return following "high" volume
Avg. "n" bar negative following "high" volume
The script colors bars via gradient.
By default, bars are colored lime when volume for the interval is "high" (exceeds upper quartile thresholds). The greener the bar, the higher the volume for the interval.
Bars are colored red when volume for the interval is "low" (fails to exceed lower quartile thresholds). The redder the bar, the lower the volume for the interval.
Naturally, brownish-colored bars reflect a volume interval that concluded near the median.
The image above exemplifies the process. This feature might be useful to categorize / objectively define high-volume clusters, low-volume clusters, high-volume price moves, low-volume price moves, etc.
For greater precision, you can select to color bars by volume quartile they belong to.
The image above shows color-coordinated price bars. More details shown in the image.
Additionally, you can select to plot the quartile/percentile that a price bar belongs to on the chart.
The image above shows price bars numbered by the volume quartile they belong to.
The script will distinguish successive 90th percentile violations, superimpose a linear regression channel atop the data sequence, and record pertinent statistics.
The image above shows the process.
Lastly, the user can plot an anchored VWAP using a built-in time function.
The image above shows the anchored VWAP.
Range US Chart
A Range US chart operates irrespective of time and volume - simply - bars produce after a user-defined price move is achieved/exceeded in either direction. A range us chart produces “trend candles” and “reversal candles”. A reversal candle always moves against the most immediate bar; a trend candle always moves in favor of the most immediate bar. The user defines the dollar amount price must travel up/down for a trend candle to fulfill, and for a reversal candle to fulfill.
Note: if a “down reversal” candle (red) Is produced, it’s impossible for the next candle to also be a down reversal candle - for the downside move to continue the criteria for a down trend candle must be fulfilled. Similarly, if an “up reversal” candle (green) Is produced, it’s impossible for the next candle to also be an up reversal candle - for the upside move to continue, the criteria for an uptrend trend candle must be fulfilled. Consequently, Range US bars frequently trade at the same level for extended periods. This is intentional, as this chart type is theorized to “filter noise” (whether Range US charts fulfill this theory is to your discretion).
Lastly, if an up trend candle (green) is produced, the next candle cannot be up a reversal up candle - only a trend up candle or reversal down candle can produce - vice versa for a trend down candle (the subsequent candle cannot be a reversal down candle). In this sense, an uptrend continues on successive trend up candles; a down trend continues on successive trend down candles.
The image above exemplifies Range US chart functionality.
The lower-right stats table shows the requisite price move for a "Trend" candle to produce and for a "Reversal" candle to produce.
The default settings for this chart time automatically calculate the required "Trend" candle price move and the required "Reversal" candle price move. However, both settings are configurable.
The image above shows manually configured parameters for a trend bar and reversal bar to produce. This feature allows the user to replicate the Range US chart hosted on extrinsic charting platforms.
However, please consider that this script does not use tick data; 1-minute OHLC data is used for calculations.
Consequently, configuring the trend bar and reversal bar requirement too low may return inaccurate data. For instance, if you set trend candles to form after a $1 price move then trend candles will form if price moves up $1 from a green Range US bar or down $1 from a red Range US bar. This is sufficient for lower priced assets; however, if you were trading, for instance, Bitcoin - a $1 price move can happen numerous times in one minute. This script can’t plot bars and record data until a 1-minute bar closes and a new 1-minute bar opens. Further, if Bitcoin moves up $1 twenty times and down $1 twenty times in a 1-minute bar - your Range US chart will record such variations as one price move. This data is inaccurate and likely useless.
To counter this quandary, a warning message will appear if you configure trend bar price moves or reversal bar price moves too low.
The image above shows the concealable warning message.
The image above is a flow diagram (made with shaky hands) illustrating the Range US bar formation process.
A google search will return additional information on the Range US chart type.
Volume Aggregation Bars
TradingView user and member of the TradingView Discord server @ferreirajames informed me of the Volume Aggregation chart type. The user commented in the "Suggestions" channel for the TradingView Discord server asking for the Volume Aggregation chart type. As an interim fix, I tried my hand at recreating the process, which is available in this script.
Similar to the Range US chart type, Volume Aggregation bars aren’t bound to a time-axis; the bars form after a user-defined, cumulative amount of volume is achieved or exceeded. Consequently, once the cumulative amount of volume is achieved or exceeded - a bar is produced at the corresponding price level.
Underlying theory: The chat type is conducive to identifying price levels where traders are “trapped”. Whether the process adequately distinguishes this circumstance is to your discretion.
The image above exemplifies the Volume Aggregation chart type.
Regardless of the current price, Volume Aggregation bars for after a requisite amount of volume is achieved/exceeded. Tick data isn't used; therefore, remainder values are carry over.
By default, the script automatically calculates a proportional cumulative volume total to dictate the formation of Volume Aggregation bars. However, the cumulative threshold is configurable.
The image above shows Volume Aggregation bars forming subsequent a user-defined cumulative volume total being exceeded.
Note: This chart type uses OHLC data from the timeframe of your chart. Therefore, for instance, setting the volume threshold too low will produce inaccurate, useless data.
A warning message will appear for such occurrence.
Gaps
The indicator incorporates a "Gaps" chart type.
The image above shows accompanying features.
A list of all unfilled gaps is accessible - gaps for this list are sorted by distance from current price.
Partially filled gaps are displayed in the corresponding gap box - the percentage amount the gap was filled is also displayed.
Gap statistics show:
# of Gaps
# of Up Gaps
# of Down Gaps
Average # of bars to fill Up Gaps
Average # of bars to dill Down Gaps
Average Gap Up % increase
Average Gap Down % decrease
Cumulative % increase of all Up Gaps
Cumulative % decrease of all Down Gaps
Naturally, there may be gaps formed thousands of bars ago that aren't close to price. Showing these gaps on the chart will "scrunch" the y-axis and make prices indistinguishable.
I've added a setting that allows the user to hide gaps that are "n" % away from the current price. The gap, if unfilled, will reappear when price trades within the user-defined percentage.
The image above shows an example. There's an unfilled down gap that's "hidden" because the current price is a further % away from price than what I've specified in the settings (1%). When prices trade back within 1% of the gap - it will reappear.
The image above shows the process in action. Prices moved back within 1% (can be any %) of the gap; therefore, it reappeared on the chart.
You can also set the % distance a gap must achieve for it to be considered a gap, recorded and plotted. Additionally, you can select to "visualize" gaps. Similar to the Range US chart and the Volume Aggregation chart, this setting will bars reflecting the most recent sequence of gaps - date and percentage distance of the gap are superimposed atop the bar.
Let me know if there's anything else you'd like included!
Note: The initial compilation time for this script is.... high. However, once the script's compiled, calculation load times are quick and you can sift through assets and timeframes relatively quick.
There's also a setting to "Improve Load Times" in the user-inputs table. This setting only improves the load times for post-compilation calculations and plots. The initial compilation load time is unchanged. Simply, once the indicator has "first loaded", all subsequent loads are quick.
Thank you! (:
TF Segmented Polynomial Regression [LuxAlgo]This indicator displays polynomial regression channels fitted using data within a user selected time interval.
The model is fitted using the same method described in our previous script:
Settings
Degree: Degree of the fitted polynomial
Width: Multiplicative factor of the model RMSE. Controls the width of the polynomial regression's channels
Timeframe: Fits the polynomial regression using data within the selected timeframe interval
Show fit for new bars: If selected, will fit the regression model for newly generated bars, else the previous fitted value is displayed.
Src: Input source
Usage
Segmented (or piecewise) models yield multiple fits by first partitioning the data into multiple intervals from specific partitioning conditions. In this script this partitioning condition is for a user selected timeframe to change.
Segmented models can be particularly pertinent for market prices, which often describes a series of local trends.
Segmented polynomial regressions can describe the nature of underlying trends in the price from their fit, such as if an underlying trend is more linear (trending) or constant (ranging), and if a trend is monotonic.
The above chart shows a monthly partitioning on SPX 15m, using a polynomial regression of degree 3. Channel extremities allows highlighting local tops/bottoms.
For real time applications users can choose to fit a current model to incoming price data using the Show fit for new bars settings.
Details
The script does not make use of line.new to display the segmented linear regressions, which allows showing a higher number of historical fits. Each channel extremity as well as the model fit is displayed from the plot function, as such user can more easily set alerts on them.
It is important to note that achieving this requires accessing future price data, as such this script is subject to lookahead bias, historical results differ from the results one could have obtained in real-time.
Volume Profile, Pivot Anchored by DGTVolume Profile (also known as Price by Volume ) is an charting study that displays trading activity over a specified time period at specific price levels. It is plotted as a horizontal histogram on the finacial isntrumnet's chart that highlights the trader's interest at specific price levels. Specified time period with Pivots Anchored Volume Profile is determined by the Pivot Levels, where the Pivot Points High Low indicator is used and presented with this Custom indicator
Finally, Volume Weighted Colored Bars indicator is presneted with the study
Different perspective of Volume Profile applications;
Anchored to Session, Week, Month etc : Anchored-Volume-Profile
Custom Range, Interactive : Volume-Profile-Custom-Range
Fixed Range with Volume Indicator : Volume-Profile-Fixed-Range
Combined with Support and Resistance Indicator : Price-Action-Support-Resistance and Volume-Profile
Combined with Supply and Demand Zones, Interactive : Supply-Demand-and-Equilibrium-Zones

Input Source█ OVERVIEW
This script demonstrates how your script can provide multiple input source selections while still allowing the use of an external indicator input.
█ CONCEPTS
There are occasions when one needs to provide script users with multiple input source selections while still allowing the selection of an external input. This is usually impossible because for external indicators to appear in an input widget's dropdown menu, only one input.source() call must be used in the script. If multiple calls are used, then no external indicator can be selected in any of the script's input widgets.
This script demonstrates how you can provide input sources offering a selection among the usual source built-ins ( open , high , low , close , hl2 , hlc3 , ohlc4 , hlcc4 ), but without the ability for users to select an external indicator. This allows your script to use multiple source inputs while still using one source input allowing the selection of an external input.
Look first. Then leap.
FULL MA Optimization ScriptHello!
This script measures the performance of 10 moving averages and compares them!
Crossover and crossunders are both tested.
The tested moving averages include: TEMA, DEMA, EMA, SMA, ALMA, HMA, T3 Average, WMA, VWMA, LSMA.
You can select the length of the moving averages and the data source (I.E, close, open, ohlc4, etc.) and the script will calculate your selections!
For instance, if you select a length of 32 and a source of ohlc4 for crossovers, the script will assign the ten moving averages that length and data source and compare the performance for ohlc4 crossovers of the 32TEMA, 32DEMA, 32SMA, 32WMA, etc. If you select crossunder, the script will calculate the performance of ohlc4 crossunders of the same moving average lengths.
Moving average performances are listed in descending order (best to worst) and are categorized by tier: Upper-Tier, Mid-Tier, Lower-Tier. The Upper-Tier displays the three best performing averages relative to the MA length and data source, for the asset on the relevant chart timeframe. The Lower-Tier displays the three worst performing averages. The Mid-Tier displays the moving averages whose performance did not achieve a top three spot or a bottom three spot.
Also calculated is the moving average which achieved the highest cumulative gain/loss and the lowest cumulative gain/loss. Any asset and timeframe can be tested; the script recalculates relative to the chart timeframe. I added a "Benchmark Moving Average" free parameter and a "Custom Moving Average" free parameter. The two operate identically; you can set the length and data source of both for quick and simple comparison between differing average lengths and sources.
If "Crossover" is selected, the "(X Candles)" displayed on the tables reflects the average number of sessions the data source remains above a moving average following a crossover. If "Crossunder" is selected, the "(X Candles)" reflects the average number of sessions the data source remains below the moving average following a crossunder.
If "Crossover" is selected, the listed "X%" reflects the average percentage gain/loss following a source crossover of a moving average up until the source crosses back under the moving average. If "Crossunder" is selected, the listed "X%" reflects the average percentage gain/loss following a source crossunder of a moving average up until the source crosses back over the moving average.
If "Crossover" is selected, the listed "X Crosses" reflects the number of instances in which the source crossed over a moving average. If "Crossunder" is selected, the listed "X Crosses" reflects the number of instances in which the source crossed under a moving average.
Additional tooltips and instructions are included should you access the user input menu.
The moving averages can be plotted as a gradient (highest priced MA to lowest priced MA) alongside the best performing moving average. The moving averages can be plotted in full color, light color alongside the best performing average, or not plotted.
This script improves upon a similar script I have released:
I decided not to update the previous script. The previous script calculates crossovers only and, due to being less code intensive, calculates much quicker. If a user is concerned only with price crossovers, not crossunders, the original script is a better option! It's faster, making it the preferable choice!
This script "FULL MA Optimization" calculates crossovers/crossunders and incorporates additional plot styles. I ran into trouble a few times where the script was too large to run on TV. This script is not "slow", I suppose; however, calculations and parameter modifications take a bit longer than the original script!
[Sextan] KAMA BacktestLevel: 1
NOTE: This is ONLY an EXAMPLE on HOW-TO produce a customized "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework" with intput signal source as my "{blackcat} L2 Perry Kaufman Adaptive MA (KAMA)" quickly and drawing on main chart. You can backtest many of my indicators in minutes now!
Of course,you can define your own indicator in the highlighted area in compliance with the uniform format, which guarantee when you use "Indicator on Indicator" function, it would not produce any error.
Background
Backtesting of technical indicators and strategies is the most common way to understand a quantitative strategy. However, the complicated configuration and adaptation work of backtesting many quantitative tools makes many traders who do not understand the code daunted. Moreover, although I have written a lot of strategies, I am still not very satisfied with the backtest configuration and writing efficiency. Therefore, I have been thinking about how to build a backtesting framework that can quickly and easily evaluate the backtesting performance of any indicator with a "long/short entry" indicator, that is, a "simple backtesting tool for dummies". The performance requirements should be stable, and the operation should be simple and convenient. It is best to "copy", "paste", and "a few mouse clicks" to complete the quick backtest and evaluation of a new indicator.
Luckily, I recently realized that TradingView provides an "Indicator on Indicator" feature, which is the perfect foundation for doing "hot swap" backtesting. My basic idea is to use a two-layer design. The first layer is the technical indicator signal source that needs to be embedded, which is only used to provide buy and sell signals of custom strategies; the second layer is the trading system, which is used to receive the output signals of the first layer, and filter the signals according to the agreed specifications. , Take Profit, Stop Loss, draw buy and sell signals and cost lines, define and send custom buy and sell alert messages to mobile phones, social software or trading interfaces. In general, this two-layer design is a flexible combination of "death and alive", which can meet the needs of most traders to quickly evaluate the performance of a certain technical indicator. The first layer here is flexible. Users can insert their own strategy codes according to my template, and they can draw buy and sell signals and output them to the second layer. The second layer is fixed, and the overall framework is solidified to ensure the stability and unity of the trading system. It is convenient to compare different or similar strategies under the same conditions. Finally, all trading signals are drawn on the chart, and the output strategy returns. test report.
The main function:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the script provides a template for personalized strategy input, and the signal and definition interfaces ensure full compatibility with the second layer. Backtesting is performed stably in the backtesting framework of the layer. The first layer of this script is also relatively simple: enter your script in the highlighted custom script area, and after ensuring the final buy and sell signals long = bool condition, short = bool condition, the design of the first layer is considered complete. Input it into the PINE script editor of TradingView, save it and add it to the chart, you can see the pulse sequence in yellow (buy) and purple (sell) on the sub-picture, corresponding to the main picture, you can subjectively judge that the quality of the trading point of the strategy is good Bad.
The second layer: "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". This script is the standardized trading system strategy execution and alarm, used to generate the final report of the strategy backtest and some key indicators that I have customized that I find useful, such as: winning rate , Odds, Winning Surface, Kelly Ratio, Take Profit and Stop Loss Thresholds, Trading Frequency, etc. are evaluated according to the Kelly formula. To use the second layer, first load it into the TrainingView chart, no markers will appear on the chart, since you have not specified any strategy source signals, click on the gear-shaped setting next to the "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans BTFW" header button, you can open the backtest settings, the first item is to select your custom strategy source. Because we have added the strategy source to the chart in the previous step, you can easily find an option "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source: Signal" at the bottom of the list, this is the strategy source input we need, select and confirm , you can see various markers on the main graph, and quickly generate a backtesting profit graph and a list of backtesting reports. You can generate files and download the backtesting reports locally. You can also click the gear on the backtest chart interface to customize some conditions of the backtest, including: initial capital amount, currency type, percentage of each order placed, amount of pyramid additions, commission fees, slippage, etc. configuration. Note: The configuration in the interface dialog overrides the same configuration implemented by the code in the backtest script.
How to output charts:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the output of this script is the pulse value of yellow and purple, yellow +1 means buy, purple -1 means sell.
The second layer: PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". The output of this script is a bit complicated. After all, it is the entire trading system with a lot of information:
1. Blue and red arrows. The blue upward arrow indicates long position, the red downward arrow indicates short position, and the horizontal bar at the end of the purple arrow indicates take profit or stop loss exit.
2. Red and green lines. This is the holding cost line of the strategy, green represents the cost of holding a long position, and red represents the cost of holding a short position. The cost line is a continuous solid line and the price action is relatively close.
3. Green and yellow long take profit and stop loss area and green and yellow long take profit and stop loss fork. Once a long position is held, there is a conditional order for take profit and stop loss. The green horizontal line is the long take profit ratio line, and the yellow is the long stop loss ratio line; the green cross indicates the long take profit price, and the yellow cross indicates the long position. Stop loss price. It's worth noting that the prongs and wires don't necessarily go together. Because of the optimization of the algorithm, for a strong market, the take profit will occur after breaking the take profit line, and the profit will not be taken until the price falls.
4. The purple and red short take profit and stop loss area and the purple red short stop loss fork. Once a short position is held, there will be a take profit and stop loss conditional order, the red is the short take profit ratio line, and the purple is the short stop loss ratio line; the red cross indicates the short take profit price, and the purple cross indicates the short stop loss price.
5. In addition to the above signs, there are also text and numbers indicating the profit and loss values of long and short positions. "L" means long; "S" means short; "XL" means close long; "XS" means close short.
TradingView Strategy Tester Panel:
The overview graph is an intuitive graph that plots the blue (gain) and red (loss) curves of all backtest periods together, and notes: the absolute value and percentage of net profit, the number of all closed positions, the winning percentage, the profit factor, The maximum trading loss, the absolute value and ratio of the average trading profit and loss, and the average number of K-lines held in all trades.
Another is the performance summary. This is to display all long and short statistical indicators of backtesting in the form of a list, such as: net profit, gross profit, Sharpe ratio, maximum position, commission, times of profit and loss, etc.
Finally, the transaction list is a table indexed by the transaction serial number, showing the signal direction, date and time, price, profit and loss, accumulated profit and loss, maximum transaction profit, transaction loss and other values.
Remarks
Finally, I will explain that this is just the beginning of this model. I will continue to optimize the trading system of the second layer. Various optimization feedback and suggestions are welcome. For valuable feedback, I am willing to provide some L4/L5 technical indicators as rewards for free subscription rights.
Support Resistance InteractiveHello All,
Using this "Support Resistance Interactive" script you can set the Support/Resistance levels interactively by clicking on the chart. Using the SR levels you set, the indicator creates Support Resistance zones. The width of the zones are calculated by using Threshold option and Threshold is the percent of the distance between Highest/Lowest levels in last 300 bars. if you set Threshold = 1 then it means 1% of the distance between Highest/Lowest levels. You can change SR levels by moving the level up/down by using your mouse anytime you want.
Now lets see it step by step;
After you added the indicator it will ask 5 Support/Resistance Levels and when you click any point then it's kept as S/R level and it asks another SR levels. if you want to use only 3 SR levels then last 2 SR levels are not important and you can click anywhere on the chart;
After you set all SR levels, it will ask "Number of Support/Resistance" . if you want to activate first 3 SR lines then set it 3. by default it's 5. when you set it click "Apply" and see the SR zones. that's it.
You can enable/disable alerts and set frequency, then create alerts. as it's interactive tool, the SR levels you set are specific for the current/active symbol. if you open another symbol then you better delete the indicator and add it again
Three Alerts exist in the script: Support Broken, Resistance Broken and Price in SR zone . you can enable/disable the alerts as you wish and you can set frequency for each one as "Once Per Bar" or "Once Per Bar Close"
by default Green/Red/Gray colors are used but You can change the colors using the options. according to the Price moves, SR zone colors are changed automatically.
when we have "Reset" feature to run the script interactively (like we added it for first time) I can update the script, then you will not need to delete/re-add each time you changed the symbol :)
In this example "Threshold" is 2 and "Number of Support/Resistance" is 4.
in this example "Threshold" is 0 and "Number of Support/Resistance" is 5.
Last example; Labels are shown for each zone, you can set location of the labels. SR order and Upper/lower band of each zone are shown in each label.
Enjoy!
Distance Oscillator - Support and Resistance by DGT
Prices high above the Moving Average (MA) or low below it are likely to be remedied in the future by a reverse price movement as stated in the article by Denis Alajbeg, Zoran Bubas and Dina Vasic published in International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management
This study is the third variant that aims to present this idea, and the output of the study is presented as lines that serve as possible support and resistance levels in the future.
1st variant of the idea is presented as an centered oscillator, link to Price Distance to its MA Study , within its description you may find more about the idea and some statistical observations. Also some derivatives with MACD-X, More Than MACD and P-MACD
2nd variant of the idea are presented as colored triangle line (Volatility Colored Price/MA Line), using the same calculation methods and presented in the bottom of price chart.
Link to studies where it is included : Colored Directional Movement and Bollinger Band's Cloud , SuperTrendRange and Pivot Points vX
3rd variant (this study) as stated earlier aims to present the same idea as support and resistance levels.
Options
The users can adjust source and length of the moving average that is used as base for the distance oscillator
Signal triggering options includes length for the deviation bands, multiplier as well as smoothing of the oscillator
Line customization settings
Additionally an alert can be configured to be warned earlier to watch out for probable pullbacks or reversals
Technical details for whom interested
Calculating the price distance to the MA results in a centered oscillator lets call it Distance Oscillator (quite similar to the RSI), as shown in the blow chart
Unlike RSI, oscillations with the distance oscillator are not limited within a specific range, hence identifying overbought and oversold is not as straight forward as it is with RSI. To determine overbought and oversold levels, standard deviation of distance oscillator is calculated and bands generated with the same approach applied with Bollinger Bands.
Once we have the threshold bands then crossing those bands we may assume as important levels and draw a line, if oscillator values keeps above the threshold bands (deviation bands) the logic behind the code will update the line drawing accordingly.
To reduce noise a smoothing can be applied
Alerts :
Please note that the implementation applied here can be applied to any oscillator such as RSI, Stochastic, MFI etc even Volume (if bear candle volumes are multiplied by -1)

Color Gradient Framework [PineCoders]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator shows how you can use the new color functions in Pine to generate color gradients. We provide functions that will help Pine coders generate gradients for multiple use cases using base colors for bull and bear states.
█ CONCEPTS
For coders interested in maximizing the use of color in their scripts, TradingView has added new color functions and new functionality to existing functions. For us coders, this translates in the ability to generate colors on the fly and use dynamic colors ("series color") in more places.
New functions allow us to:
• Generate colors dynamically from calculated RGBA components ("A" is the Alpha channel, known to Pine coders as the "transparency"). See color.rgb() .
• Extract RGBA components from existing colors. See color.r() , color.g() , color.b() and color.t() .
• Generate linear gradients between two colors. See color.from_gradient() .
Improvements to existing color/plotting functions allow more flexible use of color:
• plotcandle() now accepts a "series color" argument for its `wickcolor` and `bordercolor` parameters.
• plotarrow() now accepts a "series color" argument for its `colorup` and `colordown` parameters.
Gradients are not only useful to make script visuals prettier; they can be used to pack more information in your displays. Our gradient #4 goes overboard with the concept by using a different gradient for the source line, its fill, and the background.
█ OUR SCRIPT
The script presents four functions to generate gradients:
f_c_gradientRelative(_source, _min, _max, _c_bear, _c_bull)
f_c_gradientRelativePro(_source, _min, _max, _c_bearWeak, _c_bearStrong, _c_bullWeak, _c_bullStrong)
f_c_gradientAdvDec(_source, _center, _c_bear, _c_bull)
f_c_gradientAdvDecPro(_source, _center, _steps, _c_bearWeak, _c_bearStrong, _c_bullWeak, _c_bullStrong)
The relative gradient functions are useful to generate gradients on a source that oscillates between known upper/lower limits. They use the relative position of the source between the `_min` and `_max` levels to generate the color. A centerline is derived from the `_min` and `_max` levels. The source's position above/below that centerline determines if the bull/bear color is used, and the relative position of the source between the centerline and the max/min level determines the gradient of the bull/bear color.
The advance/decline gradient functions are useful to generate gradients on a source for which min/max levels are unknown. These functions use source advances and declines to determine a gradient level. The `f_c_gradientAdvDec()` version uses the historical maximum of advances/declines to determine how many correspond to the strongest bull/bear colors, making its gradients adaptive. The `f_c_gradientAdvDecPro()` version requires the explicit number of advances/declines that correspond to the strongest bull/bear colors. This is useful when coloring chart bars, for example, where too many gradient levels are difficult to distinguish. Using the Pro version of the function allows you to limit the number of gradient levels to 5, for example, so that transitions are fewer, but more obvious. The `_center` parameter of the advance/decline functions allows them to determine which of the bull/bear colors to use.
Note that the custom `f_colorNew(_color, _transp)` function we use in our script should soon no longer be necessary, as changes are under way to allow color.new() to accept series arguments.
Inputs
The script's inputs demonstrate one way you can allow users to choose base bull/bear colors. Because users can modify any of the colors, only two are technically needed: one for bull, one for bear, as we do for the configuration of the bull/bear colors for the background in the gradient #4 configuration. Providing a few presets from which users can choose can be useful for color-challenged script users, but that type of inputs has the disadvantage of not rendering optimally in all OS/Browser environments.
You can use the inputs to select one of eight gradient demonstrations to display.

Auto PitchFan, Fib Extension/Retracement and ZigZag by DGT Aᴜᴛᴏ PɪᴛᴄʜFᴀɴ, Fɪʙ Exᴛᴇɴꜱɪᴏɴ/Rᴇᴛʀᴀᴄᴇᴍᴇɴᴛ ᴀɴᴅ ZɪɢZᴀɢ
This study aim to automate PitchFan drawing tool and combines it with Fibonacci Extentions/Retracements and ZigZag.
Common setting options, applied to all components of the study
Deviation , is a multiplier that affects how much the price should deviate from the previous pivot in order for the bar to become a new pivot. Increasing its value is one way to get higher timeframe Levels
Depth , affects the minimum number of bars that will be taken into account when building
Historical PitchFan / Fibonacci Levels option will allow plotting of PitchFan / Fibonacci Levels on previous Pivot Highs/Lows
█ PɪᴛᴄʜFᴀɴ — is a set of rays spreading out of the point of a trend's beginning. These rays inclined with the coefficients formed by a Fibonacci number sequence. It is recommended to adjust the Pitchfan plottings to fit after the first wave of the trend has passed and the correction has clearly begun.
PitchFan rays corresponding to Fibonacci levels appear on a chart and represent inclined lines of support and resistance. Price areas near these rays are estimated areas from which the price can turn around or make a significant rebound. The whole logic of working with a pitchfan is based on one simple idea - if the price has bounced off the level, then the correction is likely to end, and the trend will continue. If the price has broken the first resistance, you should wait for the next level test
- Automatically plots PitchFan Rays, based on Pivot Lows/Highs.
- Ability to set ALERTs for each PitchFan Ray Level
- PitchFan Labels displays the price of the line at the last bar, the price value will be recalculated in each new bar
Please check the link provided below with the educational post of how to apply pitchfork, application of pitchfan is same keeping in mind the recommendation stated above
█ Fɪʙ Rᴇᴛʀᴀᴄᴇᴍᴇɴᴛs / Exᴛᴇɴꜱɪᴏɴꜱ
Fibonacci retracements is a popular instrument used by technical analysts to determine support and resistance areas. In technical analysis, this tool is created by taking two extreme points (usually a peak and a trough) on the chart and dividing the vertical distance by the key Fibonacci coefficients equal to 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, and 100%.
Fibonacci extensions are a tool that traders can use to establish profit targets or estimate how far a price may travel AFTER a retracement/pullback is finished. Extension levels are also possible areas where the price may reverse.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Fibonacci extensions option may require to do further adjustment of the study parameters for proper usage. Extensions are aimed to be used when a trend is present and they aim to measure how far a price may travel AFTER a retracement/pullback. I will strongly suggest users of this study to check the education post for further details where to use extensions and where to use retracements
- Automatically plots possible Support and Resistance levels, based on Pivot Lows/Highs.
- Ability to set ALERTs for each Fibonacci Extension/Retracement Level
- Labels displays the level and the level price
█ Zɪɢ Zᴀɢ — The Zig Zag indicator is used to help identify price trends and changes in price trends. The Zig Zag indicator plots points on a chart whenever prices reverse by a percentage greater than a Deviation variable. Straight lines are then drawn, connecting these points. The Zig Zag indicator serves base for PitchFan and Fibonacci Retracements / Extensions

Market Structure (Nephew_Sam_)This indicator consists of 3 features:
1. Plots label to the right for current market structure
2. Plots dashed line to show where the next market structure would be
3. Draws arrows above/below historical market structure breaks
This might get a little to noisy in ranging markets or lower timeframes but it does the job.

Neglected Volume by DGTVolume is one piece of information that is often neglected, however, learning to interpret volume brings many advantages and could be of tremendous help when it comes to analyzing the markets. In addition to technicians, fundamental investors also take notice of the numbers of shares traded for a given security.
What is Volume?
The volume represents all the recorded trades for a security that occurs in a given time interval. It is a measurement of the participation, enthusiasm, and interest in a given security. Think of volume as the force that drives the market. Volume substantiates, energizes, and empowers price. When volume increases, it confirms price direction; when volume decreases, it contradicts price direction.
In theory, increases in volume generally precede significant price movements. However, If the price is rising in an uptrend but the volume is reducing or unchanged, it may show that there’s little interest in the security, and the price may reverse.
A high volume usually indicates more interest in the security and the presence of institutional traders. However, a rapidly rising price in an uptrend accompanied by a huge volume may be a sign of exhaustion.
Traders usually look for breaks of support and resistance to enter positions. When security break critical levels without volume, you should consider the breakout suspect and prime for a reversal off the highs/lows
Volume spikes are often the result of news-driven events. Volume spike will often lead to sharp reversals since the moves are unsustainable due to the imbalance of supply and demand
note : there’s no centralized exchange where trades are recorded, so the volume data represents what happens at a particular exchange only
In most charting platforms, the volume indicator is presented as color-coded bars, green if the security closes up and red if the security closed lower, where the height of the bars show the amount of the recorded trades
Within this study, Relative Volume , Volume Weighted Bars and Volume Moving Average are presented, where Relative Volume relates current trading volume to past trading volume over long period, Volume Weighted Bars presents price bars colored based on short period past trading volume average, and Volume Moving Average is average of volume over shot period
Relative Volume is presented as color-coded bars similar to regular Volume indicator but uses four color codes instead two. Notable increases of volume are presented in green and red while average values with back and gray, hence adding ability to emphasis notable increases in the volume. It is kind of a like a radar for how "in-play" a security is. Users are allowed to change the threshold, default value is set to Fibonacci golden ration standard deviation away from its moving average.
Volume Weighted Bars, a study of Kıvanç Özbilgiç, aims to present if price movements are supported by Volume. Volume Weighted Bars are calculated based on shot period volume moving average which will reflect more recent changes in volume. Price actions with high volume will be displayed with darker colors, average volume values will remain as they are and low volume values will be indicated with lighter colors.
Volume Moving Average, Is short period volume moving average, aims to display visually the volume changes. Please not that Relative Volume bars are calculated based on standard deviation of long volume moving average.
What Else?
Apart from the volume itself, your ability to assess what volume is telling you in conjunction with price action can be a key factor in your ability to turn a profit in the market. It makes little sense to analyze the volume alone. To correctly interpret the volume data, it shall be seen in the light of what the price is doing. there are a lot of other indicators that are based on the volume data as well as price action. Analysing those volume indicators has always helped traders and investors to better understand what is happening in the market.
Here are the ones adapted with this study. Some of them used as a source for our aim, some adapted as they are with slight changes to fit visually to this study and please note that the numerical presentation may differ from their regular use
• On Balance Volume
• Divergence Indicator
• Correlation Coefficient
• Chaikin Money Flow
Shortly;
On Balance Volume
The On Balance Volume indicator, is a technical analysis indicator that relates volume flow to changes in a security’s price. It uses a cumulative total of positive and negative trading volume to predict the direction of price. The OBV is a volume-based momentum oscillator, so it is a leading indicator — it changes direction before the price
Granville, creator of OBV, proposed the theory that changes in volume precede price movements in a measurable way. He believed that volume was the main force behind major market moves and thought of OBV’s prediction of price changes as a compressed spring that expands rapidly when released.
It is believed that the OBV shows the interactions between the institutional and retail traders in the market
If the price makes a new high, the OBV should also make a new high. If the OBV makes a lower high when the price makes a higher high, there’s a classical bearish divergence — indicating that only the retail traders are buying. Another type of bearish divergence occurs when the price remains relatively quiet and fails to make a higher high but the OBV soars higher than the previous high — indicating that the institutional traders are accumulating short positions. On the other hand, if the price makes a lower low and the OBV makes a higher low, there is a classical bullish divergence, showing that the institutional traders don’t believe in that move
With this study, Momentum and Acceleration (optional) of OBV is calculated and presented, where momentum is most commonly referred to as a rate and measures the acceleration of the price and/or volume of a security. It is also referred to as a technical analysis indicator and oscillator that is able to determine market trends.
Additionally, smoothing functionality with Least Squares Method is added
Divergences especially, should always be noted as a possible reversal in the current trend, so the divergence indicator is adapted with this study where the Momentum of OBV is assumed as Oscillator with similar usages as to RSI. Divergence is most often used to track and analyze the momentum in an asset’s price and the odds of a price reversal within the current trend. The divergence indicator warns traders and technical analysts of changes in a price/volume trend, oftentimes that it is weakening or changing direction.
Correlation Coefficient
The correlation coefficient is a statistical measure of the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables. A correlation of -1.0 shows a perfect negative correlation, while a correlation of 1.0 shows a perfect positive correlation. A correlation of 0.0 shows no linear relationship between the movement of the two variables. In other words, the closer the Correlation Coefficient is to 1.0, indicates the instruments will move up and down together as it is mostly expected with volume and price. So the Correlation Coefficient Indicator aims to display when the price and volume (on balance volume) is in correlation and when not. With this study blue represent positive correlation while orange negative correlation. The strength of the correlation is determined by the width of the bands, to emphasis the effect horizontal lines are drawn with values set to 0.5 and -0.5. the values above 0.5 (or below -0.5) shows stronger correlation.
Chaikin Money Flow , provide optionally as a companion indicator
The Chaikin money flow indicator (CMF) is a volume indicator that measures the money flow volume over a chosen period. The money flow volume is a measure of the volume and where the price closed relative to the trading session’s range. It comes from the idea that buying pressure is indicated by a rising volume and recurrent closes in the upper part of the session’s price range while selling pressure is demonstrated by an increasing volume and repeated closes in the lower part of the price range.
Both buying and selling pressures are accompanied by an increase in volume, but the location of the closing prices are in accordance with the direction of price

Matrix functions - JD/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// The arrays provided in Pinescript are linear 1D strucures that can be seen either as a large vertical stack or
// a horizontal row containing a list of values, colors, bools,..
//
// With the FUNCTIONS in this script the 1D ARRAY LIST can be CONVERTED INTO A 2D MATRIX form

//
///////////////////////////////////////////
/// BASIC INFO ON THE MATRIX STRUCTURE: ///
///////////////////////////////////////////
//
// The matrix is set up as an 2D structure and is devided in ROWS and COLUMNS.

//
// a 3 x 4 matrix = 4 columns
// 0 1 2 3 column index
// 0

//
// With the use of some purpose-built functions, values can be placed or retrieved in a specific column of a certain row
// this can be done by intuitively using row_nr and column_nr coördinates,
// without having to worry on what exact index of the Pine array this value is located (the functions do these conversions for you)
//
//
// the syntax I propose for the 2D Matrix array has the following structure:
//
// - the array starts with 2 VALUES describing the DIMENSION INFORMATION, (rows, columns)
// these are ignored in the actual calculations and serve as a metadata header (similar to the "location, time,... etc." data that is stored in photo files)
// so the array always carries it's own info about the nr. of rows and columns and doesn't need is seperate "info" file!
//
// To stay consistent with the standard Pinescript (array and ) indexing:
// - indexes for sheets and columns start from 0 (first) and run up to the (total nr of sheets or columns) - 1
// - indexes for rows also start from 0 (most recent, cfr. ) and run up to the (total nr of rows) - 1
//
// - this 2 value metadata header is followed by the actual df data
// the actual data array can consist of (100,000 - 2) usable items,

Derivative Pivot HL Points Hello.
This script aims to take into account mutable variable Pivot Points' periods.
While doing this, it takes the period between 2 signals that I use in the script:
And these periods in my Pivot HL function integrated into len length (Mutable variables) :
The cornerstone of the script is these facts.
Pivot can be optimized by playing with reversal periods.
These pre-formed levels can be used as Supply and Demand levels.

B3 Clear Method Streak CountAbout Clear Method -- to repeat my prior post on the bar painter script:
This indicator is translated out of Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities , September 2010, (I take zero design credit). The script simply looks for the price action to break or "clear" the most recent action, and only changes the paintbar color if the action indeed clears the previous candles. Simple to use, just add to your chart from your favorites and change the colors in the UI. It does the rest.
This version can replace my previous Clear Method Bar Painter as it also paints the bars.
What is different is this share is a lower study that counts the streak of the bars shown via histogram.
The way to use the streak is to notice the previous streaks and get a sense of how long the current trend is lasting versus prior trends of the same direction.
@Tradestation recently posted their "price streak" study, and this one is quite similar in nature.
Enjoy, the code open to view,

Functions Allowing Series As Length - PineCoders FAQ█ WARNING
Improvements to the following Pine built-ins have deprecated the vast majority of this publication's functions, as the built-ins now accept "series int" `length` arguments:
ta.wma()
ta.linreg()
ta.variance()
ta.stdev()
ta.correlation()
NOTE
For an EMA function that allows a "series int" argument for `length`, please see `ema2()` in the ta library by TradingView .
█ ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION
Pinescript requires many of its built-in functions to use a simple int as their period length, which entails the period length cannot vary during the script's execution. These functions allow using a series int or series float for their period length, which means it can vary on each bar.
The functions shared in this script include:
Rolling sum: Sum(src,p)
Simple moving average: Sma(src,p)
Rolling variance: Variance(src,p)
Rolling standard deviation: Stdev(src,p)
Rolling covariance: Covariance(x,y,p)
Rolling correlation: Correlation(x,y,p)
If p is a float then it is rounded to the nearest int .
How to Use the Script
Most of the functions in the script are dependent on the Sma function. The Correlation function uses the Covariance and Stdev functions. Be sure you include all the required functions in your script.
Make sure the series you use as the length argument is greater than 0, else the functions will return na . When using a series as length argument, the following error might appear:
Pine cannot determine the referencing length of a series. Try using max_bars_back in the study or strategy function.
This can be frequent if you use barssince(condition) where condition is a relatively rare event. You can fix it by including max_bars_back=5000 in your study declaration statement as follows:
study("Title",overlay=true,max_bars_back=5000)
Example
The chart shows the Sma , Stdev , Covariance and Correlation functions. The Sma uses the closing price as input and bars as period length where:
bars = barssince(change(security(syminfo.tickerid,"D",close ,lookahead=true)))
The Stdev uses the closing price as input and bars + 9 as period length. The Covariance and Correlation use the closing price as x and bar_index as y , with bars + 9 as period length.
Look first. Then leap.
FX Meter ScriptA while ago, we wrote* about the usefulness of using a currency strength meter and how you can build one from scratch.
See here: www.globalprime.com.au
Now we've taken this little project to the next level by visually spotting, via color signals in a dashboard and alerts, when a potential new trend might be developing in a currency pair.
*It's critical that you first read that article before you jump into reading this one or else you could get easily lost.
The script gives a trigger every time two currencies show diverging flows via opposing moving average slopes.
The signals originate from a first chart where currency indexes can be found, calculated through a formula, in various thin lines. Then a moving average to each currency index is applied so that it can smooth out the lines (what I call Micro moving averages – thicker lines -) and is usually a 4-5 period MA, with the key input to pay attention being the slope. One can perform their own tests on what works best for their particular trading style. The smaller the period in the moving average, the more responsive to changes in biases but the downside is that you will get a greater number of false moves. In the windows below the 1st chart, the stochRSI is calculated for each currency index (these values originate from the currency index and not from the applied MA). By default, a 25-period is applied to both RSI and Stoch length.
A 2nd chart that looks at the same logic is also accounted for to build this script, but instead of checking the micro trend, it applies a 25MA to the currency index, so it looks at what I call the slope of the macro trend. In this case, by default, a 125-period is applied to both RSI and Stoch length.
We had in mind to transition from just eye-balling and monitoring these charts manually to build a script via Tradingview that makes calculations real time (whenever the change in the moving average slope first occurs, and not when the bar/line closes), so that one can decide whether or not its a signal worth trading as part of a new trend emerging. Note, this is not so much a signal-triggering indicator but rather a tool to constantly be on the lookout monitoring what currencies might start to develop trends.
The actual script consists of a dashboard with different colored rectangles being triggered depending on the quality of the signal.
We will be happy to discuss it further with anyone who is interested in exploiting all the benefits that it can offer.
The way you add the script into your Tradingview chart is by first copy everything in the txt file. Then go to Pine editor (bottom middle-left) in your tradingview chart, delete everything there, then Paste the script. Then click Add to Chart (top right of the pine editor).
Note, you should add via the Anchored Text function the following list of pairs below, in this alphabetic order, on the right-hand side of the chart, as demonstrated above:
AUDCAD
AUDJPY
AUDNZD
AUDUSD
CADJPY
EURAUD
EURJPY
EURCAD
EURNZD
EURGBP
EURUSD
GBPAUD
GBPCAD
GBPJPY
GBPNZD
GBPUSD
NZDCAD
NZDJPY
NZDUSD
USDCAD
USDJPY
There are only 2 rules for the script to trigger a signal (see below). However, as I will elaborate further down, there are up to 6 different colors we can grade a signal
RULE 1 -> 2 moving averages, which are a calculation applied to a currency index as shown in the micro trend above, exhibit slopes in the opposite direction.
RULE 2 -> The Stoch RSI cannot be in overbought conditions if the slope of the moving average points higher or in oversold if the slope points lower.
Note 1: Even if the chart is a 60m timeframe by default (can be changed to any timeframe(, one gets the signal the moment the change of slope is identified, which means the indicator monitors changes in price tick by tick, and not on a candle close, otherwise one would get the trigger too late.
As an example of the highest-graded signal triggering (in green), a few hours ago we were given the visual cue that GBPCAD was experiencing a change of behavior. If we crosscheck the time the green-colored trigger was given with the actual GBPCAD chart, this is what we can observe. The pair is 30p higher since the trigger.
HOW TO SETUP ALERTS
One can easily setup a notification window each time the above rules are met, for example, if the EUR MA slope changes to bullish, and the AUD MA slope changes to bearish, and none of the 2 currency index values corresponding to these 2 moving averages (EUR and AUD) show a stoch RSI in overbought (above 80) in the case of the EUR, or oversold (below 20) in the case of the AUD, then the notification pop up would show a customized line: Long EURAUD
Note 1: Recording the slope of the macro moving average, which is usually a 25period MA applied to the currency index, is not included as part of the rules to trigger a signal, but it is taken into account to grade the quality of each signal.
Note 2: I recommend each signal to be triggered once or if you prefer, simply monitor the chart visually on the change of colors via the dashboard. The calculation resets and can appear again the moment that the slope changes to the opposite direction, so it’s a very dynamic indicator that will alert you the second a pair of currencies starts trending.
Note 3: When the signal is triggered, the indicator draws a colored rectangle. Each signal notification should be colored based on the following logic below.
LOGIC TO QUALIFY SIGNALS
-> Any long micro position with Macro MA in full agreement (ie/ Long EURAUD, Macro EUR up, Macro AUD down) is highlighted with green color
-> Any long micro position with macro moving averages in partial agreement (for example Long EURAUD, Macro EUR up AUD up) is highlighted with blue color
-> Any long micro position with macro moving averages in full disagreement (for example Long EURAUD, Macro EUR down AUD up) is highlighted with magenta color
-> Any short micro position with macro moving averages in full agreement (for example Short EURAUD, Macro EUR down AUD up) is highlighted with red color
-> Any short micro position with macro moving averages in partial agreement (for example Short EURAUD, Macro EUR up AUD up) is highlighted with orange color
-> Any short micro position with macro moving averages in full disagreement (for example Short EURAUD, Macro EUR up AUD down) is highlighted with purple color
PARAMETERS IN THE SCRIPT SETTINGS
Overbought/oversold: One can modify the stoch RSI level from which the indicator considers the value to be in overbought or oversold conditions. As a rule of thumb, consider 20/30 for oversold and 70/80 for oversold.
Slopes micro/macro MAs: One can edit the slope of the micro MA period (rule of thumb 4-5) and the macro MA (by default 25).
Value StochRSI: The default inputs are K 3, D 3, RSI Length 25, Stoch Length 25 for the micro and 125 period for the macro.
Change colors: One can edit the assigned colors in the signals dashboard.
Timeframe applied: The indicator has the flexibility to be applied to any timeframe, not just the 60m by default. Simply change the timeframe temporality.
CURRENCY INDEXES FORMULAS
It is the responsibility of the user to keep the values of the indexes updated. Find a recent sample below, as per values in early April. What this means is that at least once a week, in order to not let the values outdated, you should update the script with the latest valuations in the denominator.
NZD INDEX -> FX_IDC:NZDAUD/0.96+FX:NZDJPY/75.81+FX:NZDUSD/0.68+FX_IDC:NZDEUR/0.6+FX_IDC:NZDGBP/0.52+FX:NZDCHF/0.69+FX:NZDCAD/0.9
EUR INDEX -> FX:EURUSD/1.13+FX:EURJPY/125.5+FX:EURGBP/0.87+FX:EURCHF/1.135+FX:EURCAD/1.49+FX:EURNZD/1.655+FX:EURAUD/1.59
JPY INDEX -> 1/(FX:USDJPY/110.5+FX:EURJPY/125.5+FX:AUDJPY/79+FX:NZDJPY/75.5+FX:GBPJPY/144.5+FX:CHFJPY/110.5+FX:CADJPY/84)
USD INDEX -> FX_IDC:USDEUR/0.88+FX:USDJPY/110.5+FX_IDC:USDGBP/0.77+FX:USDCHF+FX:USDCAD/1.315+FX_IDC:USDNZD/1.46+FX_IDC:USDAUD/1.4
CAD INDEX-> FX_IDC:CADAUD/1.07+FX_IDC:CADNZD/1.11+FX:CADJPY/84.27+FX_IDC:CADUSD/0.76+FX_IDC:CADEUR/0.67+FX:CADCHF/0.76+FX_IDC:CADGBP/0.58
GBP INDEX -> FX:GBPAUD/1.83+FX:GBPNZD/1.91+FX:GBPJPY/144.5+FX_IDC:GBPEUR/1.15+FX:GBPCHF/1.31+FX:GBPUSD/1.31+FX:GBPCAD/1.71
Remember, I have provided a manual on how to build a currency strength meter. That’s what you will need to do first if you want to obtain the actual currency indexes other than just the indicator, which is just the visual cue to get you alerted when the slopes turn.
Once you’ve created your indexes via tradingview, you then apply a moving average to each index. Then apply the stochrsi 25 period to each index. For the macro trend, I make the same calculations, but the period of the MA is 25 instead of 4, while the stoch rsi is 125 periods vs 25 periods.
FINAL NOTE
This is a tool that should be interpreted as visual assistance, via the dashboard, to get that first cue when opposing micro slopes via the FX meter occur. However, you still need to check the technical context of the pair (levels marked, proj reached, etc.) but that first cue is a major time saver to constantly spot what's trending in FX. The permutations u can play with, as part of this script, are significant. You can tweak the timeframes you use, the periods of the moving averages, etc. I find the micro and macro trend combos when either a green or red signals is triggered the most reliable, with positions to be exploited via 15m and hourly under the right technical context.
Mayer Multiple @ Current PriceThough this script is by me, the original idea comes from a podcast I heard where Trace Mayer talks about how he does crypto valuation. It is based on current price against the 200 day moving average. This indicator script will simply plot that value as a label overlayed on your trading view chart. Best long term results occur when acquiring BTC when the multiple is 2.4 or less. For more info, google "mayer multiple" This script/indicator is strictly for educational purposes. It is not exclusive to bitcoin.
To get the best look out of your charts I make the following changes.
1.Apply the indicator to your chart.
2. In the tools palette of trading view, when looking at a chart, click "Show Objects Tree" the icon displayed above the trash can.
In the objects tree panel, click the preferences icon for "Mayer Multiple @ Current Price"
Switch "scale" to "scale Left"
3. Then for your chart preferences (right click on chart background and select "Properties", and be sure the following are checked on the "Scales" tab

Screenshots are not allowed in this view, so I can't post screenshots, but the view above is what it should look like when you are done.
For anyone who wants to see the code, here is the code of the script:
Use at will, and at your own risk.
//@version=3
// Created By Timothy Luce, inspired by Trace Mayer's 200 Day SMA cryptocurrency valuation method
study("Mayer Multiple @ Current Price", overlay=true)
currentPrice = close
currentDay = security(tickerid, "D", sma(close, 200))
mayerMultiple = currentPrice/currentDay
plot(mayerMultiple, color=#00ffaa, transp=100)

DIN: Dynamic Trend NavigatorDIN: Dynamic Trend Navigator
Overview
The Dynamic Trend Navigator script is designed to help traders identify and capitalize on market trends using a combination of Weighted Moving Averages (WMA), Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), and Anchored VWAP (AVWAP). The script provides customizable settings and flexible alerts for various crossover conditions, enhancing its utility for different trading strategies.
Key Features
- **1st and 2nd WMA**: Allows users to set and visualize two Weighted Moving Averages. These can be customized to any period, providing flexibility in trend identification.
- **VWAP and AVWAP**: Incorporates both VWAP and AVWAP, offering insights into price levels adjusted by volume.
- **ATR and ADX Indicators**: Includes the Average True Range (ATR) and Average Directional Index (ADX) to help assess market volatility and trend strength.
- **Flexible Alerts**: Configurable buy and sell alerts for any crossover condition, making it versatile for various trading strategies.
How to Use the Script
1. **Set the WMA Periods**: Customize the periods for the 1st and 2nd WMAs to suit your trading strategy.
2. **Enable VWAP and AVWAP**: Choose whether to include VWAP and AVWAP in your analysis by enabling the respective settings.

4. **Monitor Signals**: Watch for buy and sell signals indicated by triangle shapes on the chart, which appear at the selected crossover points.
When to Use
- **Best Time to Use**: The script is most effective in trending markets where price movements are well-defined. It helps traders stay on the right side of the trend and avoid false signals during periods of low volatility.
- **When Not to Use**: Avoid using the script in choppy or sideways markets where price action lacks direction. The script may generate false signals in such conditions, leading to potential losses.
Benefits of VWAP and AVWAP
- **VWAP**: The Volume Weighted Average Price provides a price benchmark that adjusts for volume, helping traders identify fair value levels. It is particularly useful for intraday trading and gauging market sentiment.
- **AVWAP**: The Anchored VWAP allows traders to set a starting point for VWAP calculations, providing flexibility in analyzing price levels over specific periods or events. This helps in identifying key support and resistance levels based on volume.
Unique Aspects
- **Customizability**: The script offers extensive customization options for WMA periods, VWAP, AVWAP, and alert conditions, making it adaptable to various trading strategies.
- **Combining Indicators**: By integrating WMAs, VWAP, AVWAP, ATR, and ADX, the script provides a comprehensive view of market conditions, enhancing decision-making.
- **Real-Time Alerts**: The flexible alert system ensures traders receive timely notifications for potential trade setups, improving responsiveness to market changes.
Examples
- **Example 1**: A trader sets the 1st WMA to 8 and the 2nd WMA to 100, enabling the VWAP. When the 1st WMA crosses above the 2nd WMA or VWAP, a buy signal is triggered, indicating a potential long entry.
- **Example 2**: A trader sets the AVWAP to start 30 bars ago and monitors for crossovers with the 1st WMA. When the 1st WMA crosses below the AVWAP, a sell signal is triggered, suggesting a potential short entry.
Final Notes
The Dynamic Trend Navigator script is a powerful tool for traders looking to enhance their market analysis and trading decisions. Its unique combination of customizable indicators and flexible alert system sets it apart from other scripts, making it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit.

[blackcat] L1 Extreme Shadows█ OVERVIEW
The Pine Script provided is an indicator designed to detect market volatility and extreme shadow conditions. It calculates various conditions based on simple moving averages (SMAs) and plots the results to help traders identify potential market extremes. The primary function of the script is to provide visual cues for extreme market conditions without generating explicit trading signals.
█ LOGICAL FRAMEWORK
Structure:
1 — Input Parameters:
• No user-defined input parameters are present in this script.
2 — Calculations:
• Calculate Extreme Shadow: Checks if the differences between certain SMAs and prices exceed predefined thresholds.
• Calculate Buy Extreme Shadow: Extends the logic by incorporating additional SMAs to identify stronger buy signals.
• Calculate Massive Bullish Sell: Detects massive bullish sell conditions using longer-term SMAs.
3 — Plotting:
• The script plots the calculated conditions using distinct colors to differentiate between various types of extreme shadows.
Data Flow:
• The close price is passed through each custom function.
• Each function computes its respective conditions based on specified SMAs and thresholds.
• The computed values are then summed and returned.
• Finally, the aggregated values are plotted on the chart using the plot function.
█ CUSTOM FUNCTIONS
1 — calculate_extreme_shadow(close)
• Purpose: Identify extreme shadow conditions based on 8-period and 14-period SMAs.
• Functionality: Computes the difference between the 8-period SMA and the close price, and the difference between the 14-period SMA and the 4-period SMA, relative to the 6-period SMA. Returns 2 if both conditions exceed 0.04; otherwise, returns 0.
• Parameters: close (price series)
• Return Value: Integer (0 or 2)
2 — calculate_buy_extreme_shadow(close)
• Purpose: Identify more robust buy signals by evaluating multiple SMAs.
• Functionality: Considers the 8-period SMA along with additional SMAs (21, 42, 63, 84, 105) and combines multiple conditions to provide a comprehensive buy signal.
• Parameters: close (price series)
• Return Value: Integer (sum of conditions, ranging from 0 to 14)
3 — calculate_massive_bullish_sell(close)
• Purpose: Detect massive bullish sell conditions using longer-term SMAs.
• Functionality: Evaluates conditions based on the 8-period SMA and longer-term SMAs (88, 44, 22, 11, 5), returning a sum of conditions meeting specified thresholds.
• Parameters: close (price series)
• Return Value: Integer (sum of conditions, ranging from 0 to 10)
█ KEY POINTS AND TECHNIQUES
• Advanced Pine Script Features:
• Multiple Nested Conditions: Uses nested conditions to assess complex market scenarios.

Last Freemans Ver1This script is a technical indicator for TradingView that combines three popular tools for analyzing price movements:
Relative Strength Index (RSI): This measures the momentum of recent price changes and indicates potential overbought or oversold conditions. The script allows you to adjust the RSI length (default 14) and define overbought (default 70) and oversold (default 30) levels.
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD): This indicator helps identify trend direction and potential turning points. It uses two moving averages (fast and slow) and a signal line. The script lets you customize the lengths of the MACD lines (fast: 12, slow: 26, signal: 9).
Exponential Moving Average (EMA): This is a smoothing indicator used to identify the underlying trend by filtering out price noise. You can adjust the EMA length (default 200) in the script.
Additionally, the script generates Buy/Sell signals based on the following conditions:
Buy Signal:
MACD line crosses above the signal line (indicating a potential uptrend).
RSI is below the oversold level (suggesting room for price increase).
Closing price is below the EMA (potentially indicating a price pullback before an upswing).
Sell Signal:
MACD line crosses below the signal line (indicating a potential downtrend).
RSI is above the overbought level (suggesting potential for a price decrease).
Closing price is above the EMA (potentially indicating a price breakout before a decline).
Visualization:
The script plots the following on the chart:
RSI line (blue) with overbought and oversold levels as dashed lines (red and green, respectively).
MACD line (red) and signal line (blue).
EMA line (orange).
Green triangle up (below the bar) for Buy signals.
Red triangle down (above the bar) for Sell signals.
Important Note:
This script provides trading signals based on technical indicators, but keep in mind that these are not guaranteed predictions of future price movements. Always conduct your own research and consider other factors before making trading decisions.
