3-EMA Ribbon Scalping System 3-EMA Ribbon Scalping System V2 - Trading Guide
Overview
This indicator combines a triple EMA ribbon with VWAP, RSI, and volume analysis to catch high-probability scalping setups for short pip hunting on highly liquid Forex pairs such as EUR/USD
The Core Strategy
The system waits for three conditions to align before firing a signal:
1. EMA Stack** - The 8/13/21 EMAs must be properly stacked (bullish: 8>13>21, bearish: 8<13<21)
2. VWAP Position** - Price needs to be on the right side of VWAP for the trade direction
3. Pullback Entry** - Price pulls back to test the fast EMA while maintaining the trend structure
When these line up with proper RSI readings and a volume spike, you get your entry signal.
Reading the Signals
LONG Entries
Triggered when:
- EMAs are bullishly stacked (green background)
- Price is above VWAP
- We get a pullback to the 8 EMA that holds
- RSI is between 40-70 (momentum present but not overbought)
- Volume exceeds the 20-period average by 1.2x
SHORT Entries
Mirror opposite conditions:
- Bearish EMA stack (red background)
- Price below VWAP
- Rejection at the 8 EMA
- RSI between 30-60
- Volume confirmation present
Risk Management Built In (freely adjustable to match your own approach when it comes to taking risk)
Each signal automatically calculates:
- Stop Loss: 1x ATR from entry
- Target 1: 1:1 risk/reward ratio
- *arget 2: 2:1 risk/reward ratio
You can display these as lines or labels, or turn them off entirely if you prefer your own levels.
Quick Setup Tips
Start with the default settings - they work well on most timeframes from 1-minute to 1-hour charts. The sweet spot for scalping is typically the 3-minute or 5-minute timeframe.
The info panel in the top right gives you a quick market snapshot without cluttering your chart:
- Trend direction
- VWAP position
- RSI value
- Volume status
- Current signal state
If you're getting too many signals, increase the "Min Bars Between Signals" to filter out choppy action. For cleaner charts during analysis, you can toggle off individual components like the ribbon, backgrounds, or signals.
Tips for Live Trading
1. Don't chase - Wait for price to come to the 8 EMA, not the other way around
2. Volume matters - That volume spike filter catches the moves with real momentum behind them
3. Respect the trend - The EMA stack keeps you trading with the flow, not against it
4. Use multiple timeframes - Check a higher timeframe for overall bias before taking signals
The indicator includes alerts that fire with exact entry, stop, and target levels - perfect for quick execution or logging trades.
Remember, this is a scalping system designed for active trading. It works best in trending markets with good volatility. During ranging or low-volume periods, consider sitting on your hands or reducing position size. Trade at your own risk, I created this solely for educational purposes!

GOLD 5MIN — 9×21 EMA Strategy (Aggressive)GOLD 5-MIN 9×21 EMA (Aggressive Version)
EMA Trend + VWAP Direction + Statistical RSI/MACD Filter
📌 Overview
This strategy is a short-term trend-following system built for GOLD MGC1! on the 5-minute chart.
It uses a combination of:
9/21 EMA momentum cross
50 & 200 EMA trend filters
VWAP directional alignment
Data-driven RSI + MACD histogram filter (for shorts)
Strict time-of-day filters
Statistically optimized SL & TP levels based on average run-up and drawdown
This version represents the highest-performing configuration after analyzing hundreds of trades across a multi-month dataset.
It is designed specifically for manual traders (including prop traders) who must trade themselves and cannot use bots.
📌 Why This Strategy Works
Backtesting revealed several repeatable tendencies in the GOLD 5-minute market:
EMA Trend + VWAP Alignment Increases Win Probability
Trades taken with both EMA structure And VWAP direction had much better follow-through.
Longs → work best when above VWAP and VWAP risingShorts → work best when below VWAP and VWAP falling
This filter alone removed many losing signals.
Shorts Were Bad When RSI > 55 AND MACD Histogram Rising
This scenario repeatedly produced:
reduced R-multiple output
shallow follow-through
high likelihood of being squeezed
Filtering out these shorts increased profitability significantly.
3. Certain Hours of the Day Lose Money
The two statistically weakest windows were:
❌ 08:00 EST
❌ 10:00 EST
Removing these increased expectancy without sacrificing win rate.
4. A Fixed 2R Target on Longs + Fixed $161 TP on Shorts
Using the statistical distribution of run-up:
Longs favored ~2R
Shorts favored a fixed TP of $161 per contract (equivalent avg move)
This combination produced the most stable equity curve.
📌 Backtest Summary (Aggressive Version)
(Numbers reflect your exact dataset: Sept 25 – Nov 22)
+8.4% account growth trading a single micro contract
Profit Factor ~ 2.2
~58% win rate
Shallow max drawdown (~1.3%)
Very consistent equity curve
Highest P&L of all strategy variants tested
This version provided the best risk-adjusted performance and the smoothest equity curve, outperforming conservative and hybrid exit versions.
📌 When This Strategy Works Best
Based on verified trade statistics, the strategy performs strongest during:
Best Sessions
⭐ London Session (3–5 AM EST)
⭐ NY Pre-Market (7–8:30 AM EST)
⭐ NY Session Trend Legs (9:30–12:00 PM EST)
Avoid
❌ 8:00 AM EST spike
❌ 10:00 AM EST chop
❌ 16:30–18:00 PM EST session reset
❌ Wild FOMC / CPI / NFP moments unless you turn the strategy off
📌 How Entries Work
You get an entry signal only if:
9 EMA crosses 21 EMA
50 & 200 EMA confirm trend direction
VWAP confirms direction
Not during weak hours
Not during the 16:30–18:00 reset
Shorts pass RSI+MACD filter
Confidence weighting determines position size:
Conf 3 (high confidence) → 2 contracts
Low confidence → 1 contract
📌 Stop Loss & Take Profit Logic
LONGS
Stop = swing low − 3 ticks
Target = 2R
SHORTS
Stop = swing high + 3 ticks
Target = fixed $161 per contract
This TP was statistically verified from average short-run behavior.
📌 Setting Up Alerts (Manual Trader Instructions)
STEP 1 — Use “Order fills & alert() function calls”
In the Create Alert panel:
Condition: GOLD 5MIN — 9×21 EMA Strategy (Aggressive…)
Type: ✔ Order fills & alert() function calls
Interval: Same as chart (5 min)
Expiration: choose a long window (e.g., 6–12 months)
This ensures you receive:
✓ Entry alerts (Long / Short)
✗ No exit alerts unless explicitly coded
📌 What to Put in the Message Box
Use this simple, readable format:
text{{strategy.order.action}}
{{strategy.order.contracts}} contract(s)
@ {{strategy.order.price}}
Position size: {{strategy.position_size}}
You can also include SL / TP if needed:
textEntry: {{strategy.order.price}}
SL: {{plot("stop_level")}}
TP: {{plot("tp_level")}}
(I can wire these into Pine if you'd like.)
📌 How to Use Alerts in a Prop Firm (No Bots Allowed)
When an alert fires:
Open your DOM / order panel
Match the direction (Buy or Sell)
Enter:
* Entry price (market or limit)
* Stop loss at the strategy’s stop level
* Take profit at the displayed TP level
Size
* 1 contract = Low confidence
* 2 contracts = Conf 3
Let the trade run—do not manually override unless platform constraints require it.
This creates a mechanical, rules-based approach without automation, fully compliant with prop firm rules.
📌 Intended Audience
This strategy is ideal for:
✔ Prop traders (TP Trader, Apex, Topstep)
Manual execution only—no bots required.
✔ Intraday gold traders
Those who want a rules-based, statistically proven, trend-following micro futures system.
✔ New systematic traders
Clear logic, easy visuals, simple alerts.
📌 Final Notes
This script is the product of:
data-driven optimization
hundreds of trades
removal of low-probability behavior
strict adherence to verifiable edges
It is not curve-fit—all rules are independently validated via:
distribution analysis
time-of-day heatmaps
indicator correlation
run-up/drawdown buckets
This makes it robust enough for prop evaluation trading and real capital deployment.

Flux-Tensor Singularity [FTS]Flux-Tensor Singularity - Multi-Factor Market Pressure Indicator
The Flux-Tensor Singularity (FTS) is an advanced multi-factor oscillator that combines volume analysis, momentum tracking, and volatility-weighted normalization to identify critical market inflection points. Unlike traditional single-factor indicators, FTS synthesizes price velocity, volume mass, and volatility context into a unified framework that adapts to changing market regimes.
This indicator identifies extreme market conditions (termed "singularities") where multiple confirming factors converge, then uses a sophisticated scoring system to determine directional bias. It is designed for traders seeking high-probability setups with built-in confluence requirements.
THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
The indicator is built on the premise that market time is not constant - different market conditions contain varying levels of information density. A 1-minute bar during a major news event contains far more actionable information than a 1-minute bar during overnight low-volume trading. Traditional indicators treat all bars equally; FTS does not.
The theoretical framework draws conceptual parallels to physics (purely as a mental model, not literal physics):
Volume as Mass: Large volume represents significant market participation and "weight" behind price moves. Just as massive objects have stronger gravitational effects, high-volume moves carry more significance.
Price Change as Velocity: The rate of price movement through price space represents momentum and directional force.
Volatility as Time Dilation: When volatility is high relative to its historical norm, the "information density" of each bar increases. The indicator weights these periods more heavily, similar to how time dilates near massive objects in physics.
This is a pedagogical metaphor to create a coherent mental model - the underlying mathematics are standard financial calculations combined in a novel way.
MATHEMATICAL FRAMEWORK
The indicator calculates a composite singularity value through four distinct steps:
Step 1: Raw Singularity Calculation
S_raw = (ΔP × V) × γ²
Where:
ΔP = Price Velocity = close - close
V = Volume Mass = log(volume + 1)
γ² = Time Dilation Factor = (ATR_local / ATR_global)²
Volume Transformation: Volume is log-transformed because raw volume can have extreme outliers (10x-100x normal). The logarithm compresses these spikes while preserving their significance. This is standard practice in volume analysis.
Volatility Weighting: The ratio of short-term ATR (5 periods) to long-term ATR (user-defined lookback) is squared to create a volatility amplification factor. When local volatility exceeds global volatility, this ratio increases, amplifying the raw singularity value. This makes the indicator regime-aware.
Step 2: Normalization
The raw singularity values are normalized to a 0-100 scale using a stochastic-style calculation:
S_normalized = ((S_raw - S_min) / (S_max - S_min)) × 100
Where S_min and S_max are the lowest and highest raw singularity values over the lookback period.
Step 3: Epsilon Compression
S_compressed = 50 + ((S_normalized - 50) / ε)
This is the critical innovation that makes the sensitivity control functional. By applying compression AFTER normalization, the epsilon parameter actually affects the final output:
ε < 1.0: Expands range (more signals)
ε = 1.0: No change (default)
ε > 1.0: Compresses toward 50 (fewer, higher-quality signals)
For example, with ε = 2.0, a normalized value of 90 becomes 70, making threshold breaches rarer and more significant.
Step 4: Smoothing
S_final = EMA(S_compressed, smoothing_period)
An exponential moving average removes high-frequency noise while preserving trend.
SIGNAL GENERATION LOGIC
When the tensor crosses above the upper threshold (default 90) or below the lower threshold (default 10), an extreme event is detected. However, the indicator does NOT immediately generate a buy or sell signal. Instead, it analyzes market context through a multi-factor scoring system:
Scoring Components:
Price Structure (+1 point): Current bar bullish/bearish
Momentum (+1 point): Price higher/lower than N bars ago
Trend Context (+2 points): Fast EMA above/below slow EMA (weighted heavier)
Acceleration (+1 point): Rate of change increasing/decreasing
Volume Multiplier (×1.5): If volume > average, multiply score
The highest score (bullish vs bearish) determines signal direction. This prevents the common indicator failure mode of "overbought can stay overbought" by requiring directional confirmation.
Signal Conditions:
A BUY signal requires:
Extreme event detection (tensor crosses threshold)
Bullish score > Bearish score
Price confirmation: Bullish candle (optional, user-controlled)
Volume confirmation: Volume > average (optional, user-controlled)
Momentum confirmation: Positive momentum (optional, user-controlled)
A SELL signal requires the inverse conditions.
INPUTS EXPLAINED - Core Parameters:
Global Horizon (Context): Default 20. Lookback period for normalization and volatility comparison. Higher values = smoother but less responsive. Lower values = more signals but potentially more noise.
Tensor Smoothing: Default 3. EMA period applied to final output. Removes "quantum foam" (high-frequency noise). Range 1-20.
Singularity Threshold: Default 90. Values above this (or below 100-threshold) trigger extreme event detection. Higher = rarer, stronger signals.
Signal Sensitivity (Epsilon): Default 1.0. Post-normalization compression factor. This is the key innovation - it actually works because it's applied AFTER normalization. Range 0.1-5.0.
Signal Interpreter Toggles:
Require Price Confirmation: Default ON. Only generates buy signals on bullish candles, sell signals on bearish candles. Reduces false signals but may delay entry.
Require Volume Confirmation: Default ON. Only signals when volume > average. Critical for stocks/crypto, less important for forex (unreliable volume data).
Use Momentum Filter: Default ON. Requires momentum agreement with signal direction. Prevents counter-trend signals.
Momentum Lookback: Default 5. Number of bars for momentum calculation. Shorter = more responsive, longer = trend-following bias.
Visual Controls:
Colors: Customizable colors for bullish flux, bearish flux, background, and event horizon.
Visual Transparency: Default 85. Master control for all visual elements (accretion disk, field lines, particles, etc.). Range 50-99. Signals and dashboard have separate controls.
Visibility Toggles: Individual on/off switches for:
Gravitational field lines (trend EMAs)
Field reversals (trend crossovers)
Accretion disk (background gradient)
Singularity diamonds (neutral extreme events)
Energy particles (volume bursts)
Event horizon flash (extreme event background)
Signal background flash
Signal Size: Tiny/Small/Normal triangle size
Signal Offsets: Separate controls for buy and sell signal vertical positioning (percentage of price)
Dashboard Settings:
Show Dashboard: Toggle on/off
Position: 9 placement options (all corners, centers, middles)
Text Size: Tiny/Small/Normal/Large
Background Transparency: 0-50, separate from visual transparency
VISUAL ELEMENTS EXPLAINED
1. Accretion Disk (Background Gradient):
A three-layer gradient background that intensifies as the tensor approaches extremes. The outer disk appears at any non-neutral reading, the inner disk activates above 70 or below 30, and the core layer appears above 85 or below 15. Color indicates direction (cyan = bullish, red = bearish). This provides instant visual feedback on market pressure intensity.
2. Gravitational Field Lines (EMAs):
Two trend-following EMAs (10 and 30 period) visualized as colored lines. These represent the "curvature" of market trend - when they diverge, trend is strong; when they converge, trend is weakening. Crossovers mark potential trend reversals.
3. Field Reversals (Circles):
Small circles appear when the fast EMA crosses the slow EMA, indicating a potential trend change. These are distinct from extreme events and appear at normal market structure shifts.
4. Singularity Diamonds:
Small diamond shapes appear when the tensor reaches extreme levels (>90 or <10) but doesn't meet the full signal criteria. These are "watch" events - extreme pressure exists but directional confirmation is lacking.
5. Energy Particles (Dots):
Tiny dots appear when volume exceeds 2× average, indicating significant participation. Color matches bar direction. These highlight genuine high-conviction moves versus low-volume drifts.
6. Event Horizon Flash:
A golden background flash appears the instant any extreme threshold is breached, before directional analysis. This alerts you to pay attention.
7. Signal Background Flash:
When a full buy/sell signal is confirmed, the background flashes cyan (buy) or red (sell). This is your primary alert that all conditions are met.
8. Signal Triangles:
The actual buy (▲) and sell (▼) markers. These only appear when ALL selected confirmation criteria are satisfied. Position is offset from bars to avoid overlap with other indicators.
DASHBOARD METRICS EXPLAINED
The dashboard displays real-time calculated values:
Event Density: Current tensor value (0-100). Above 90 or below 10 = critical. Icon changes: 🔥 (extreme high), ❄️ (extreme low), ○ (neutral).
Time Dilation (γ): Current volatility ratio squared. Values >2.0 indicate extreme volatility environments. >1.5 = elevated, >1.0 = above average. Icon: ⚡ (extreme), ⚠ (elevated), ○ (normal).
Mass (Vol): Log-transformed volume value. Compared to volume ratio (current/average). Icon: ● (>2× avg), ◐ (>1× avg), ○ (below avg).
Velocity (ΔP): Raw price change. Direction arrow indicates momentum direction. Shows the actual price delta value.
Bullish Flux: Current bullish context score. Displayed as both a bar chart (visual) and numeric value. Brighter when bullish score dominates.
Bearish Flux: Current bearish context score. Same visualization as bullish flux. These scores compete - the winner determines signal direction.
Field: Trend direction based on EMA relationship. "Repulsive" (uptrend), "Attractive" (downtrend), "Neutral" (ranging). Icon: ⬆⬇↔
State: Current market condition:
🚀 EJECTION: Buy signal active
💥 COLLAPSE: Sell signal active
⚠ CRITICAL: Extreme event, no directional confirmation
● STABLE: Normal market conditions
HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
1. Wait for Extreme Events:
The indicator is designed to be selective. Don't trade every fluctuation - wait for tensor to reach >90 or <10. This alone is not a signal.
2. Check Context Scores:
Look at the Bullish Flux vs Bearish Flux in the dashboard. If scores are close (within 1-2 points), the market is indecisive - skip the trade.
3. Confirm with Signals:
Only act when a full triangle signal appears (▲ or ▼). This means ALL your selected confirmation criteria have been met.
4. Use with Price Structure:
Combine with support/resistance levels. A buy signal AT support is higher probability than a buy signal in the middle of nowhere.
5. Respect the Dashboard State:
When State shows "CRITICAL" (⚠), it means extreme pressure exists but direction is unclear. These are the most dangerous moments - wait for resolution.
6. Volume Matters:
Energy particles (dots) and the Mass metric tell you if institutions are participating. Signals without volume confirmation are lower probability.

Epsilon: 2.0-3.0
Note: Extremely rare signals. Only trade the most extreme events. Expect massive moves.
Market-Specific Settings:
Forex (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, etc.):
Volume data is unreliable (spot forex has no centralized volume)
Disable "Require Volume Confirmation"
Focus on momentum and trend filters
News events create extreme singularities
Best on 15m-1h timeframes
Stocks (High-Volume Equities):
Volume confirmation is CRITICAL - keep it ON
Works excellently on AAPL, TSLA, SPY, etc.
Morning session (9:30-11:00 ET) shows highest event density
Earnings announcements create guaranteed extreme events
Best on 5m-1h for day trading, 1D for swing trading
Crypto (BTC, ETH, major alts):
Reduce threshold to 85 (crypto has constant high volatility)
Volume spikes are THE primary signal - keep volume confirmation ON
Works exceptionally well due to 24/7 trading and high volatility
Epsilon can be reduced to 0.7-0.8 for more signals
Best on 15m-4h timeframes
Commodities (Gold, Oil, etc.):
Gold responds to macro events (Fed announcements, geopolitical events)
Oil responds to supply shocks
Use daily timeframe minimum
Increase lookback to 50+
These are slow-moving markets - be patient
Indices (SPX, NDX, etc.):
Institutional volume matters - keep volume confirmation ON
Opening hour (9:30-10:30 ET) = highest singularity probability
Strong correlation with VIX - high VIX = more extreme events
Best on 15m-1h for day trading
WHAT MAKES THIS INDICATOR UNIQUE
1. Post-Normalization Sensitivity Control:
Unlike most oscillators where sensitivity controls don't actually work (they're applied before normalization, which then rescales everything), FTS applies epsilon compression AFTER normalization. This means the sensitivity parameter genuinely affects signal frequency. This is a novel implementation not found in standard oscillators.
2. Multi-Factor Confluence Requirement:
The indicator doesn't just detect "overbought" or "oversold" - it detects extreme conditions AND THEN analyzes context through five separate factors (price structure, momentum, trend, acceleration, volume). Most indicators are single-factor; FTS requires confluence.
3. Volatility-Weighted Normalization:
By squaring the ATR ratio (local/global), the indicator adapts to changing market regimes. A 1% move in a low-volatility environment is treated differently than a 1% move in a high-volatility environment. Traditional indicators treat all moves equally regardless of context.
4. Volume Integration at the Core:
Volume isn't an afterthought or optional filter - it's baked into the fundamental equation as "mass." The log transformation handles outliers elegantly while preserving significance. Most price-based indicators completely ignore volume.
5. Adaptive Scoring System:
Rather than fixed buy/sell rules ("RSI >70 = sell"), FTS uses competitive scoring where bullish and bearish evidence compete. The winner determines direction. This solves the classic problem of "overbought markets can stay overbought during strong uptrends."
6. Comprehensive Visual Feedback:
The multi-layer visualization system (accretion disk, field lines, particles, flashes) provides instant intuitive feedback on market state without requiring dashboard reading. You can see pressure building before extreme thresholds are hit.
7. Separate Extreme Detection and Signal Generation:
"Singularity diamonds" show extreme events that don't meet full criteria, while "signal triangles" only appear when ALL conditions are met. This distinction helps traders understand when pressure exists versus when it's actionable.
COMPARISON TO EXISTING INDICATORS
vs. RSI/Stochastic:
These normalize price relative to recent range. FTS normalizes (price change × log volume × volatility ratio) - a composite metric, not just price position.
vs. Chaikin Money Flow:
CMF combines price and volume but lacks volatility context and doesn't use adaptive normalization or post-normalization compression.
vs. Bollinger Bands + Volume:
Bollinger Bands show volatility but don't integrate volume or create a unified oscillator. They're separate components, not synthesized.
vs. MACD:
MACD is pure momentum. FTS combines momentum with volume weighting and volatility context, plus provides a normalized 0-100 scale.
The specific combination of log-volume weighting, squared volatility amplification, post-normalization epsilon compression, and multi-factor directional scoring is unique to this indicator.
LIMITATIONS AND PROPER DISCLOSURE
Not a Holy Grail:
No indicator is perfect. This tool identifies high-probability setups but cannot predict the future. Losses will occur. Use proper risk management.
Requires Confirmation:
Best used in conjunction with price action analysis, support/resistance levels, and higher timeframe trend. Don't trade signals blindly.
Volume Data Dependency:
On forex (spot) and some low-volume instruments, volume data is unreliable or tick-volume only. Disable volume confirmation in these cases.
Lagging Components:
The EMA smoothing and trend filters are inherently lagging. In extremely fast moves, signals may appear after the initial thrust.
Extreme Event Rarity:
With conservative settings (high threshold, high epsilon), signals can be rare. This is by design - quality over quantity. If you need more frequent signals, reduce threshold to 85 and epsilon to 0.7.
Not Financial Advice:
This indicator is an analytical tool. All trading decisions and their consequences are solely your responsibility. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
BEST PRACTICES
Don't trade every singularity - wait for context confirmation
Higher timeframes = higher reliability
Combine with support/resistance for entry refinement
Volume confirmation is CRITICAL for stocks/crypto (toggle off only for forex)
During major news events, singularities are inevitable but direction may be uncertain - use wider stops
When bullish and bearish flux scores are close, skip the trade
Test settings on your specific instrument/timeframe before live trading
Use the dashboard actively - it contains critical diagnostic information

MTF VWAP + Candlestick VWAP Reactions (Bounce + Score)It’s an intraday VWAP + candlestick confluence tool that:
Draws daily, weekly, monthly, yearly VWAPs.
Detects textbook candlestick patterns, classed as BuH/BuM (bullish high/moderate) and BeH/BeM (bearish high/moderate) with colored boxes.
Triggers long/short arrows only when price bounces off a VWAP by at least 0.15% AND there’s a recent matching pattern.
Grades every signal as A / B / C with a score 1–10:
A (8–10) = high-reliability pattern (BuH/BeH) + strong 2-candle body reaction (your A+ setups).
B (5–8) = moderate pattern (BuM/BeM) + one solid bounce.
C (1–5) = weaker / mixed context (scalpy or gamble).
SuperBuy/TrendFollowing This Pine Script indicator "SuperBuy/TrendFollowing" is a trading tool that combines trend-following and momentum strategies. Here's what it does:
**Main Functions:**
- Plots a dynamic trend line based on weighted EMA calculations
- Generates "B" buy signals when price crosses above the trend line with confirmed momentum
- Generates "S" sell signals when price crosses below the trend line with bearish confirmation
- Uses volume-weighted moving averages and price momentum filters
- Changes trend line color (green/blue) based on price position relative to the trend
**Key Features:**
- Combines multiple technical factors: price momentum, volume surges, and trend confirmation
- Includes customizable thresholds for signal sensitivity
- Provides visual alerts with triangle shapes and text labels
- Sets up alert conditions for automated notifications
Weekday Close vs Open — Last N (per weekday)# Weekday Close vs Open - Last N Occurrences
This indicator distills every weekday's historical open-to-close behavior into a compact table so you can see how "typical" the current session is before the day even closes. It runs independently of your chart timeframe by pulling daily OHLCV data under the hood, tracking the last **N** completed occurrences for each weekday, and refreshing only when a daily bar closes. On daily charts you can also shade every past bar that matches today's weekday (excluding the in-progress session) to reinforce the pattern visually while the table remains non-repainting.
## What It Shows
- **Win/Loss/Tie counts** - how many of the last `N` occurrences closed above the open (wins), below (losses), or inside the tie threshold you define as "flat".
- **Win % heatmap** - the win column is color-coded (deep green > deep red) so you immediately recognize strong or weak weekdays.
- **Advanced metrics (optional)** - average daily volume plus the average percentage excursion above/below the open (`AvgUp%`, `AvgDn%`) for that weekday.
- **Totals row** - aggregates every weekday into one row to estimate overall hit rate and average stats across the entire data set.
- **Weekday shading (optional)** - on daily charts you can tint every bar that matches today's weekday (all Mondays, all Fridays, etc.) for instant pattern recognition.
## How It Works
1. The script requests daily OHLCV data (non-repainting) regardless of the chart timeframe.
2. When a new daily bar confirms, it packs that day's data into one of seven arrays (one per weekday). Each day contributes five floats (O/H/L/C/V) so trimming and statistics stay in lockstep.
3. A helper function (`f_dayMetrics`) scans daily history to compute average volume, average excursion above/below the open, and win/loss/tie counts for the requested weekday.
4. The table populates on the last bar of the chart session, respecting your advanced/totals toggles and keeping text at `size.normal`.
## Reading the Table
- **Win/Loss/Tie columns**: raw counts taken from your chosen `N`.
- **Win %***: excludes ties from the denominator so it reflects only decisive closes.
- **AvgUp% / AvgDn%**: typical intraday extension (high vs open, open vs low) in percent.
- **Avg Vol**: arithmetic mean of daily volume for that weekday.
- **TOTAL row**: provides a global win rate plus volume/up/down averages weighted by how many samples each weekday contributed.
## Practical Uses
- Spot weekdays that historically trend higher or lower before entering a trade.
- Compare current price action against the typical intraday range (`AvgUp%` vs today's move).
- Filter mean-reversion vs breakout setups based on the most reliable weekday patterns.
- Quickly gauge whether today is behaving "in character" by referencing the highlighted row or the optional whole-chart weekday shading.
> **Tip:** Use smaller `N` values (e.g., 10-20) for adaptive, recent behavior and larger values (50+) to capture longer-term seasonality. Tighten the tie threshold if you want almost every candle to register as win/loss, or widen it to focus only on meaningful moves.

TICK & ADD Market Internals SuiteOverview: This is the ultimate Market Internals tool designed for professional SPX/ES and NQ intraday traders.
Traders often monitor both TICK (for short-term timing) and ADD (for daily trend context). However, displaying them on the same chart is usually problematic due to their different scales (TICK ±1000 vs. ADD ±2000), causing chart compression.
Market Internals Suite solves this with a smart "Visual Scaling" algorithm, perfectly fusing TICK Candles and the ADD Line into a single, coherent pane.
Key Features
1.Hybrid Visualization:
· TICK (Foreground): Displayed as OHLC Candles to capture instant liquidity sweeps and wicks.
· ADD (Background): Displayed as a clean Line to show the underlying market breadth trend without clutter.
2.Smart Visual Scaling:
· To prevent chart distortion, the ADD line is visually scaled down (Default Ratio: 1.5).
· This aligns the ADD trend volatility with the TICK range, allowing you to instantly spot divergences or resonance between sentiment and trend.
3.Real-Time Data Dashboard:
· Never lose track of the actual numbers. A dashboard in the top-right corner displays the TRUE values for both TICK and ADD (unscaled).
· Customizable Text Size: You can adjust the dashboard font size (Small/Normal/Large/Huge) in the settings to fit your screen.
4.TICK Extreme Alerts:
· Visual Highlight: The chart background highlights (Green/Red) only when TICK hits the extreme ±1000 levels.
· The ADD line remains clean and alert-free to serve as a stable reference.
Strategy: Context + Timing:
1.Trend Resonance
When the ADD line trends upward and TICK candles consistently maintain levels above zero, it indicates a healthy, strong trend. This is a signal to look for trend-following long setups.
2.Divergence Analysis (The "Holy Grail" Signal)
This combination view makes spotting internal divergences incredibly easy:
· Bearish Divergence: When Price makes a New High, but the ADD line or TICK peaks make a Lower High. This suggests buying exhaustion beneath the surface and often precedes a reversal down.
· Bullish Divergence: When Price makes a New Low, but the ADD line or TICK lows make a Higher Low. This suggests that selling pressure is being absorbed, signaling a potential bounce or reversal up.
Static Beta for Pair and Quant Trading A beta coefficient shows the volatility of an individual stock compared to the systematic risk of the entire market. Beta represents the slope of the line through a regression of data points. In finance, each point represents an individual stock's returns against the market.
Beta effectively describes the activity of a security's returns as it responds to swings in the market. It is used in the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), which describes the relationship between systematic risk and expected return for assets. CAPM is used to price risky securities and to estimate the expected returns of assets, considering the risk of those assets and the cost of capital.
Calculating Beta
A security's beta is calculated by dividing the product of the covariance of the security's returns and the market's returns by the variance of the market's returns over a specified period. The calculation helps investors understand whether a stock moves in the same direction as the rest of the market. It also provides insights into how volatile—or how risky—a stock is relative to the rest of the market.
For beta to provide useful insight, the market used as a benchmark should be related to the stock. For example, a bond ETF's beta with the S&P 500 as the benchmark would not be helpful to an investor because bonds and stocks are too dissimilar.
Beta Values
Beta equal to 1: A stock with a beta of 1.0 means its price activity correlates with the market. Adding a stock to a portfolio with a beta of 1.0 doesn’t add any risk to the portfolio, but it doesn’t increase the likelihood that the portfolio will provide an excess return.
Beta less than 1: A beta value less than 1.0 means the security is less volatile than the market. Including this stock in a portfolio makes it less risky than the same portfolio without the stock. Utility stocks often have low betas because they move more slowly than market averages.
Beta greater than 1: A beta greater than 1.0 indicates that the security's price is theoretically more volatile than the market. If a stock's beta is 1.2, it is assumed to be 20% more volatile than the market. Technology stocks tend to have higher betas than the market benchmark. Adding the stock to a portfolio will increase the portfolio’s risk, but may also increase its return.
Negative beta: A beta of -1.0 means that the stock is inversely correlated to the market benchmark on a 1:1 basis. Put options and inverse ETFs are designed to have negative betas. There are also a few industry groups, like gold miners, where a negative beta is common.
LET'S START
Now I'll give my own definition.
Beta:
If we assume market caps are equal ,
it is an indicator that shows how much of the second instrument we should buy if we buy one of the first, taking into account the price volatility of two instruments.
But if the market caps are not equal:
For example, the ETF for A is $300.
The ETF for B is $600.
If static beta predicted by this script is 0.5:
300 * 1 * a = 600 * 0.5 * b
Then we should use 1 b for 1 a.
(Long a and short b or vice versa )
So, we can try pair trading for a/b or a-b.
However, these values are generally close to each other, such as 0.8 and 0.93. However, the closer we can adjust our lot purchases to bring the double beta to a value closer to 1, the higher the hedge ratio will be.
Large commercials use dynamic betas, which are updated periodically, in addition to static betas
However, scaling this is very difficult for individual investors with limited investment tools.
But a static beta of 5,000 bars is still much better than not considering any beta at all.
Note: The presence of a beta value for two instruments does not necessarily mean they can be included in pair trading.
It is also important (%99) to consider historically very high correlations and cointegration relationships, as well as the compatibility of security structures.
Note 2 : This script is designed for low timeframes.
Do not use betas from different timeframes.
Beta dynamics are different for each timeframe.
Note 3 : I created this script with the help of ChatGPT.

Montosca's Volume Delta Volume Delta Montosca - Indicator Summary
Volume Delta Montosca is a specialized Pine Script indicator for TradingView designed to analyze buying and selling pressure within each candle. It focuses on identifying high-impact volume events combined with strong directional dominance.
Key Features
1. Volume Delta Visualization
Displays volume bars split into Buy Volume (Blue) and Sell Volume (Red).
Includes centered text labels inside the bars showing the exact percentage of buy and sell volume for clear readability.
2. Signal Generation Logic (Triangles)
The indicator generates Buy (Blue Triangle) and Sell (Red Triangle) signals based on two strict criteria that must be met simultaneously:
Criterion A: Significant Volume (SMA Filter)
The current candle's volume must exceed a dynamic threshold.
This threshold is calculated using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume (e.g., 20 periods) multiplied by a user-defined Adjustment Factor (e.g., 150%).
Example: If the factor is 150%, the volume must be 1.5x higher than the average.
Criterion B: Directional Dominance
The candle must show strong internal conviction.
The Buy Percentage (for long signals) or Sell Percentage (for short signals) must exceed a specific Dominance Threshold (e.g., 70%).
3. Simplified Analysis
Alerts: Integrated alert conditions for both Buy and Sell signals for automated trading or notifications.
FxAST Ichi ProSeries Enhanced Full Market Regime EngineFxAST Ichi ProSeries v1.x is a modernized Ichimoku engine that keeps the classic logic but adds a full market regime engine for any market and instrument.”
Multi-timeframe cloud overlay
Oracle long-term baseline
Trend regime classifier (Bull / Bear / Transition / Range)
Chikou & Cloud breakout signals
HTF + Oracle + Trend dashboard
Alert-ready structure for automation
No repainting: all HTF calls use lookahead_off.
1. Core Ichimoku Engine
Code sections:
Input group: Core Ichimoku
Function: ichiCalc()
Variables: tenkan, kijun, spanA, spanB, chikou
What it does
Calculates the classic Ichimoku components:
Tenkan (Conversion Line) – fast Donchian average (convLen)
Kijun (Base Line) – slower Donchian average (baseLen)
Senkou Span A (Span A / Lead1) – (Tenkan + Kijun)/2
Senkou Span B (Span B / Lead2) – Donchian over spanBLen
Chikou – current close shifted back in time (displace)
Everything else in the indicator builds on this engine.
How to use it (trading)
Tenkan vs Kijun = short-term vs medium-term balance.
Tenkan above Kijun = short-term bullish control; below = bearish control.
Span A / B defines the cloud, which represents equilibrium and support/resistance.
Price above cloud = bullish bias; price below cloud = bearish bias.
Graphic
2. Display & Cloud Styling
Code sections:
Input groups: Display Options, Cloud Styling, Lagging Span & Signals
Variables: showTenkan, showKijun, showChikou, showCloud, bullCloudColor, bearCloudColor, cloudLineWidth, laggingColor
Plots: plot(tenkan), plot(kijun), plot(chikou), p1, p2, fill(p1, p2, ...)
What it does
Lets you toggle individual components:
Show/hide Tenkan, Kijun, Chikou, and the cloud.
Customize cloud colors & opacity:
bullCloudColor when Span A > Span B
bearCloudColor when Span A < Span B
Adjust cloud line width for clarity.
How to use it
Turn off components you don’t use (e.g., hide Chikou if you only want cloud + Tenkan/Kijun).
For higher-timeframe or noisy charts, use thicker Kijun & cloud so structure is easier to see.
Graphic
Before
After
3. HTF Cloud Overlay (Multi-Timeframe)
Code sections:
Input group: HTF Cloud Overlay
Vars: showHTFCloud, htfTf, htfAlpha
Logic: request.security(..., ichiCalc(...)) → htfSpanA, htfSpanB
Plots: pHTF1, pHTF2, fill(pHTF1, pHTF2, ...)
What it does
Pulls higher-timeframe Ichimoku cloud (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) onto your current chart.
Uses the same Ichimoku settings but aggregates on htfTf.
Plots an extra, semi-transparent cloud ahead of price:
Greenish when HTF Span A > Span B
Reddish when HTF Span B > Span A
How to use it
Trade LTF (e.g., 5m/15m) only in alignment with HTF trend:
HTF cloud bullish + LTF Ichi bullish → look for longs
HTF cloud bearish + LTF Ichi bearish → look for shorts
Treat HTF cloud boundaries as major S/R zones.
Graphic
4. Oracle Module
Code sections:
Input group: Oracle Module
Vars: useOracle, oracleLen, oracleColor, oracleWidth, oracleSlopeLen
Logic: oracleLine = donchian(oracleLen); slope check vs oracleLine
Plot: plot(useOracle ? oracleLine : na, "Oracle", ...)
What it does
Creates a long-term Donchian baseline (default 208 bars).
Uses a simple slope check:
Current Oracle > Oracle oracleSlopeLen bars ago → Oracle Bull
Current Oracle < Oracle oracleSlopeLen bars ago → Oracle Bear
Slope state is also shown in the dashboard (“Bull / Bear / Flat”).
How to use it
Think of Oracle as your macro anchor :
Only take longs when Oracle is sloping up or flat.
Only take shorts when Oracle is sloping down or flat.
Works well combined with HTF cloud:
HTF cloud bullish + Oracle Bull = higher conviction long bias.
Ideal for Gold / Indices swing trades as a trend filter.
Graphic idea
5. Trend Regime Classifier
Code sections:
Input group: Trend Regime Logic
Vars: useTrendRegime, bgTrendOpacity, minTrendScore
Logic:
priceAboveCloud, priceBelowCloud, priceInsideCloud
Tenkan vs Kijun alignment
Cloud bullish/bearish
bullScore / bearScore (0–3)
regime + regimeLabel + regimeColor
Visuals: bgcolor(regimeColor) and optional barcolor() in priceColoring mode.
What it does
Scores the market in three dimensions :
Price vs Cloud
Tenkan vs Kijun
Cloud Direction (Span A vs Span B)
Each condition contributes +1 to either bullScore or bearScore .
Then:
Bull regime when:
bullScore >= minTrendScore and bullScore > bearScore
Price in cloud → “Range”
Everything else → “Transition”
These regimes are shown as:
Background colors:
Teal = Bull
Maroon = Bear
Orange = Range
Silver = Transition
Optional candle recoloring when priceColoring = true.
How to use it
Filters:
Only buy when regime = Bull or Transition and Oracle/HTF agree.
Only sell when regime = Bear or Transition and Oracle/HTF agree.
No trade zone:
When regime = Range (price inside cloud), avoid new entries; wait for break.
Aggressiveness:
Adjust minTrendScore to be stricter (3) or looser (1).
Graphic
6. Signals: Chikou & Cloud Breakout
Code sections :
Logic:
chikouBuySignal = ta.crossover(chikou, close)
chikouSellSignal = ta.crossunder(chikou, close)
cloudBreakUp = priceInsideCloud and priceAboveCloud
cloudBreakDown = priceInsideCloud and priceBelowCloud
What it does
1. Two key signal groups:
Chikou Cross Signals
Buy when Chikou crosses up through price.
Sell when Chikou crosses down through price.
Classic Ichi confirmation idea: Chikou breaking free of price cluster.
2. Cloud Breakout Signals
Long trigger: yesterday inside cloud → today price breaks above cloud.
Short trigger: yesterday inside cloud → today price breaks below cloud.
Captures “equilibrium → expansion” moves.
These are conditions only in this version (no chart shapes yet) but are fully wired for alerts. (Future Updates)
How to use it
Use Chikou signals as confirmation, not standalone entries:
Eg., Bull regime + Oracle Bull + cloud breakout + Chikou Buy.
Use Cloud Breakouts to catch the first impulsive leg after consolidation.
Graphic
7. Alerts (Automation Ready)
[
b]Code sections:
Input group: Alerts
Vars: useAlertTrend, useAlertChikou, useAlertCloudBO
Alert lines like: "FxAST Ichi Bull Trend", "FxAST Ichi Bull Trend", "FxAST Ichi Cloud Break Up"
What it does
Provides ready-made alert hooks for:
Trend regime (Bull / Bear)
Chikou cross buy/sell
Cloud breakout up/down
Each type can be globally toggled on/off via the inputs (helpful if a user only wants one kind).
How to use it
In TradingView: set alerts using “Any alert() function call” on this indicator.
Then filter which ones fire by:
Turning specific alert toggles on/off in input panel, or
Filtering text in your external bot / webhook side.
Example simple workflow ---> Indicator ---> TV Alert ---> Webhook ---> Bot/Broker
8. FxAST Dashboard
Code sections:
Input group: Dashboard
Vars: showDashboard, dashPos, dash, dashInit
Helper: getDashPos() → position.*
Table cells (updated on barstate.islast):
Row 0: Regime + label
Row 1: Oracle status (Bull / Bear / Flat / Off)
Row 2: HTF Cloud (On + TF / Off)
Row 3: Scores (BullScore / BearScore)
What it does
Displays a compact panel with the state of the whole system :
Current Trend Regime (Bull / Bear / Transition / Range)
Oracle slope state
Whether HTF Cloud is active + which timeframe
Raw Bull / Bear scores (0–3 each)
Position can be set: Top Right, Top Left, Bottom Right, Bottom Left.
How to use it
Treat it like a pilot instrument cluster :
Quick glance: “Are my trend, oracle and HTF all aligned?”
Great for streaming / screenshots: everything important is visible in one place without reading the code.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Forever ModelForever Model is a comprehensive trading framework that visualizes market structure through Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergences, and order block confirmations. The indicator identifies potential price rotations by tracking internal liquidity zones, correlation breaks between assets, and confirmation signals across multiple timeframes.
Designed for clarity and repeatability, the model presents a structured visual logic that supports manual analysis while maintaining flexibility across different assets and timeframes. All components are non-repainting, ensuring historical accuracy and reliable backtesting.
Description
The model operates through a three-part sequence that forms the visual foundation for identifying potential market rotations:
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
FVGs are price imbalances detected on higher timeframes—areas where price moved rapidly between candles, leaving an inefficiency that may be revisited. The indicator identifies both bullish and bearish FVGs, displaying them with color-coded levels that extend until mitigated.
: Chart showing FVG detection with colored lines indicating bullish (green) and bearish (red) gaps
Smart Money Technique (SMT)
SMT detects divergence between the current chart asset and a correlated pair. When one asset makes a higher high while the other forms a lower high (or vice versa), it indicates a potential shift in delivery. The indicator draws visual lines connecting these divergence points and can filter SMTs to only display those occurring within FVG ranges.
: Chart showing SMT divergence lines between two correlated assets with labels indicating the pair name]
Order Block Confirmations (OB)
When price confirms a signal by crossing a pivot level, an Order Block is created. The confirmation line extends from the pivot point, labeled as "OB+" for bullish signals or "OB-" for bearish signals. The latest OB extends to the current bar, while previous OBs remain fixed at their confirmation points.
: Chart showing OB confirmation lines with OB+ and OB- labels at confirmation points]
Key Features
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Detection
FVGs are detected on a higher timeframe than the current chart, with automatic HTF selection based on the current timeframe or manual override options. This ensures that internal liquidity zones are identified from the appropriate structural context.
External Range Liquidity (ERL)
Tracks the latest higher timeframe pivot highs and lows, marking external liquidity levels that may be revisited. ERL levels are displayed as horizontal lines with optional labels, providing context for potential continuation targets.
: Chart showing ERL lines at recent HTF pivot points
Signal Creation and Confirmation System
The model creates pending signals when FVG levels are mitigated. Signals confirm when price closes beyond a pivot level, creating the OB confirmation line. Stop levels are automatically calculated from the maximum (bearish) or minimum (bullish) price between signal creation and confirmation.
SMT Filtering Options
Display all SMTs or only those within FVG ranges
Require SMT for signal confirmation (optional filter)
Automatic or manual SMT pair selection
Support for both correlated and inverse correlated pairs
Directional Bias Filter
Filter FVG detection to show only bullish bias, bearish bias, or both. This allows analysts to align with higher timeframe structure or focus on unidirectional setups.
Confirmation Line Management
Toggle to extend only the latest confirmation line or all confirmation lines
Transparent label backgrounds with colored text (red for bearish, green for bullish)
Automatic cleanup of old confirmation lines (keeps last 50)
Labels positioned at line end (latest) or middle (older lines)
Position Sizing Calculator
Optional position sizing based on account balance, risk percentage or fixed amount, and instrument-specific contract sizes. Supports prop firm calculations and can display position size, entry, and stop levels in the dashboard.
Information Dashboard
A customizable floating table displays:
Current timeframe and HTF
Remaining time in current bar
Current bias direction
Latest confirmed signal details (type, size, entry, stop)
Pending signal status
The dashboard can be repositioned, resized, and styled to match your preferences.
Special Range Creation
When signals confirm, the model can automatically create special range levels from stop prices. These levels persist on the chart as important reference points, even after mitigation, serving as potential reversal zones for future signals.
Label and Visualization Controls
Toggle FVG labels on/off
Toggle confirmation lines on/off
Customizable colors for bullish and bearish FVGs
ERL color customization
SMT line width adjustment
Order Flow Integration (Optional)
The indicator includes optional Open Interest (OI) based special range detection, allowing integration with order flow analysis for enhanced context.
Technical Notes
All components are non-repainting—once formed, they remain on the chart
FVGs cannot be mitigated on their creation bar
Signal-based special ranges persist even after mitigation (important stop levels)
SMT detection supports both HTF and chart timeframe modes
Maximum 50 confirmation lines are maintained for performance
The model is designed to work across all asset classes and timeframes, providing a consistent framework for identifying potential market rotations through the interaction of internal liquidity, correlation breaks, and confirmation signals, this does not constitute as trading advice, past performance is no indication of future performance , this is entirely done for entertainment and educational purposes

H1 Z-score + DevVWAP (swing filters)H1 Z-Score + DevVWAP (Swing Filters) — TradingView Indicator
Purpose
A lightweight filter to confirm or fade swing setups (1–5 days) using intermarket context. It measures how unusual the last 1-hour move is (Z-score) and how far price is from session VWAP (DevVWAP). Designed for risk-off proxies (DXY, ZN, VIX/VX) but works on any symbol.

from the current session.
Text panel / status (optional)
Human-readable hint: “PRO long equity”, “CONTRO long equity”, or “Mixed”, depending on Z and the asset’s role.
Inputs
Sessions lookback (default 20): how many sessions to estimate the 1h volatility baseline.
Hours per session (default 23): adjust for Globex vs cash hours.
Show DevVWAP (on/off).
Asset role = Risk-OFF? (true for DXY/ZN/VIX; false for equity indices/ETFs or risk-on FX/crypto).
How to read it (equity swing context)
For Risk-OFF assets (DXY, ZN, VIX/VX):
Z ≤ −1 (down move stronger than usual) and/or DevVWAP < 0 → PRO long equity (risk-on confirmation).
Z ≥ +1 and/or DevVWAP > 0 → CONTRO long equity (risk-off pressure).
For Risk-ON assets (set “Risk-OFF?” = false), invert the logic.
Typical use with a swing setup (Break & Retest):
If your setup is valid, add +10–15% confidence when ≥2 filters align (e.g., DXY Z ≤ −1 and below VWAP).
If signals are mixed, halve size (Reduce).
If ≥2 filters oppose, skip new entries (OFF).
Why it helps
Standardizes “strong vs normal”: Z-score compares the current 1h impulse to its own 20-session history.
Anchors to fair value: DevVWAP tells you if the filter asset is trading above/below its session value.
Portable: same logic across ES/FDAX/NQ/FESX (just apply the indicator to the filter symbols).
Practical tips
Symbols: prefer futures or liquid proxies (DX or 6E for DXY, ZN for UST 10y, VX for VIX future) so VWAP is meaningful.
Timeframe setting: the script fetches H1 internally; you can run it on any chart TF.
Labels vs timeframe: If you enable on-chart labels, do not pass a timeframe argument in indicator() (Pine forbids side effects with fixed TF).
Smoothing: keep 20 sessions; shorten only if regime shifts make the baseline stale.
Don’t trade it alone: it’s a filter for your swing setup (bias from D1/H4, trigger on H1/M15).
Typical workflow (1 minute)
Open a chart of the filter asset (e.g., DXY future).
Check Z relative to ±1/±1.5 and DevVWAP sign.
Repeat for ZN and VIX/VX.
If ≥2 agree with your trade direction → ON / size full; if mixed → Reduce; if opposed → OFF.
Limitations
Z-score assumes the recent 1h return distribution is a useful baseline; during extreme news this can break.
DevVWAP is session-dependent; ensure your session settings match the instrument’s trading hours.
No entry/exit rules by itself; it’s a context tool to modulate probability and size.
ATRP & Volatility Table - AIMAN93The ATRP & Volatility Table is a simple yet powerful tool designed to quantify market volatility and help traders adapt their position sizing accordingly.
It calculates the Average True Range Percentage (ATRP) — the ATR value relative to current price — and classifies market conditions into three volatility levels: LOW, MEDIUM, or HIGH. Based on the volatility level, it suggests an indicative risk percentage to guide your trade management.
This visual tool displays real-time ATRP, volatility classification, and corresponding risk percentage in a compact on-chart table. Ideal for systematic traders who rely on volatility-based decision-making, position sizing, or risk management models.
Features:
- Dynamic ATRP calculation for any symbol or timeframe
- Customizable colors for text and background
- Automatic volatility classification (low / medium / high)
- Suggested risk percentage for each volatility level
LUDO1This indicator displays important Mid-Line levels (D, D-1, W, W-1, M, M-1) on the chart and provides alerts when the price touches these levels.
Features:
- Show Mid-Line for day, previous day, week, previous week, month, previous month.
- Individual alerts and a combined alert option.
- Option to show or hide text labels (D, W, M).
How to use:
1. Add the indicator to your chart.
2. Configure settings to enable/disable levels and alerts.
3. Create an alert by selecting the condition “🔔 Combined Alert” or individual alerts.
Trinity Dynamic ATR Levels (Saty)This is an updated version of the SATY ATR levels ()
Trinity Dynamic ATR Levels
The core logic is 100 % identical: same higher-timeframe ATR calculation, same trigger at ~23.6 %, same Fibonacci and extension levels, same 8-21-34 EMA ribbon for the trend color in the table, and the table itself looks exactly like the original again (4 rows, clean layout, no extra target row). The visual and usability upgrades you now have that the original does not:
Lower Trigger line is now red instead of yellow, Upper Trigger line is now green instead of aqua/cyan to indicate to go long or short.
Every single level group has its own color input so you can customize everything (previous close, fib levels, 61.8 %, 100 % ATR, extensions, 200 %, 300 %, etc.) without touching the code. Every plotted level now has a clear text label on the right side of the chart (“Prev Close”, “Lower Trig”, “Upper Trig”, “-61.8 %”, “+100 %”, “-200 %”, etc.) so you instantly know what you’re looking at.
A new input called “Target Distance (×ATR)” lets you decide how far your profit target is (default 1.0 = +100 % ATR, but you can set 1.618, 2.0, 2.618, etc. instantly).
As soon as price closes above the Upper Trigger or below the Lower Trigger, a big, obvious target box automatically appears on the right side of the screen showing the exact dollar target price for the active long or short (green box for longs, red box for shorts). When there is no active trigger, the box disappears and the table stays perfectly clean.
In short, you now have the exact same beloved Saty ATR indicator everyone uses, but with red/green triggers, full color control, level labels, and a beautiful dynamic target box that only shows up when you actually have a trade on — all while keeping the original clean 4-row table untouched. It’s the cleanest and most professional version you’ll find anywhere. Enjoy! 🚀

Luxy Sector & Industry RS AnalyzerEver wonder why some stocks soar while others in the same sector barely move? Or why your perfectly timed entry still loses money? Possibly the answer can be found in Relative Strength.
The Luxy Sector & Industry RS Analyzer solves a critical problem that most traders overlook: picking strong stocks in strong sectors AND strong industries . It's not enough for a stock to go up - you want stocks that are crushing their competition at both the sector AND industry level. This indicator does the heavy lifting by automatically comparing your stock against its sector ETF, industry ETF, the broader market, sector leader, and industry leader, giving you a complete multi-level picture of relative performance.
What makes this different?
- Automatic sector AND industry detection - no manual setup required
- Multi-level hierarchy analysis: Market → Sector → Industry → Stock
- Multi-timeframe analysis (1 month to 1 year) in one glance
- Industry ETF mapping (30+ industries covered)
- Clear 0-100 scoring system with letter grades (A+ to F)
- Works on stocks, crypto, forex, and commodities
- Real-time updates with anti-repaint protection
Think of it as your performance dashboard - instantly showing you if you're trading a champion or a laggard at every level of the market hierarchy.
METHODOLOGY & ATTRIBUTION
This indicator is based on classical Relative Strength (RS) analysis principles from technical analysis. RS methodology compares an asset's price performance against a benchmark to identify relative outperformance or underperformance. This concept has been used by professional traders and institutions for decades.
Key Concepts Used:
Relative Strength (RS) - Classical technical analysis concept measuring comparative performance
Multi-Level Hierarchy Analysis - Market → Sector → Industry → Stock comparison
Sector Rotation Analysis - Identifying which sectors are leading or lagging the market
Industry Rotation Analysis - Identifying which industries are leading within their sectors
Multi-period Performance Analysis - Evaluating strength across multiple timeframes
Beta Calculation - Standard statistical measure of volatility relative to a benchmark
DISCLAIMER: This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. It should not be considered financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Trading involves risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Always do your own research and consult with a financial advisor before making investment decisions.
with all rows visible - capture when stock has strong RS score (70+) so users can see what a "good" setup looks like]
WHAT THE INDICATOR SHOWS
1. AUTOMATIC ASSET TYPE DETECTION
The indicator automatically identifies what you're analyzing and adjusts accordingly:
Stocks - Compares to sector ETF (XLK, XLF, XLV, etc.) and SPY
Crypto - Compares to Total Crypto Market Cap and Bitcoin
Forex - Compares to relevant currency index (DXY, EXY, etc.)
Commodities - Compares to Gold (GLD) as benchmark
Indices - Compares to broader market indices
How it works: The indicator reads your chart's asset type and ticker, then automatically maps it to the correct sector or benchmark. For stocks, it uses intelligent sector detection (looking at the sector field) to match you with the right sector ETF. For example:
- Technology stocks get compared to XLK (Technology Select Sector SPDR)
- Financial stocks get compared to XLF (Financial Select Sector SPDR)
- Healthcare stocks get compared to XLV (Health Care Select Sector SPDR)
This happens instantly when you add the indicator to any chart - no configuration needed.
2. SECTOR & MARKET BENCHMARKS
What is a Sector ETF?
A sector ETF is an exchange-traded fund that tracks a specific industry group. For example, XLK contains all major technology companies. By comparing your stock to its sector ETF, you can see if your stock is outperforming or underperforming its peers.
The indicator shows three key comparison points:
Stock vs Sector (Benchmark)
This tells you how your stock performs compared to companies in the same industry. Positive numbers mean your stock is beating the sector average. Negative numbers mean it's lagging behind.
Stock vs Market (SPY)
This shows performance against the broader S&P 500 index. This is important because even if a stock beats its sector, the entire sector might be weak. You want stocks that beat both their sector AND the market.
Sector vs Market
This reveals "sector rotation" - whether money is flowing into or out of this sector. When this number is positive, the whole sector is hot and leading the market. This is powerful because strong sectors tend to lift all boats, making it easier to find winners.
3. MULTI-PERIOD PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The indicator calculates performance across four timeframes simultaneously:
1 Month (1M) - Recent short-term momentum
3 Months (3M) - Medium-term trend strength
6 Months (6M) - Longer-term positioning
1 Year (1Y) - Full-cycle performance view
Why multiple periods matter:
A stock might look great over 1 month but terrible over 6 months - that's a red flag. The best stocks show consistent strength across all timeframes . When you see positive RS (Relative Strength) values across all four periods, you've found a stock with sustained outperformance.
Each row in the table shows:
- Raw performance percentage for that period
- RS value (the difference compared to benchmark)
- Color coding: Green for positive, red for negative, white for neutral
4. SECTOR LEADER COMPARISON
The indicator automatically identifies and compares your stock to the sector leader - the dominant stock in that industry.
Sector leaders by industry:
Technology: Apple (AAPL)
Healthcare: UnitedHealth (UNH)
Financial: JPMorgan Chase (JPM)
Energy: ExxonMobil (XOM)
Consumer Discretionary: Amazon (AMZN)
Consumer Staples: Walmart (WMT)
And more...
Why this matters:
Comparing to the leader shows you if you're trading a champion or a follower. If your stock consistently beats the sector leader, you've found something special. If it's lagging the leader, you might want to trade the leader instead.
Optional Custom Leader:
You can override the automatic leader and compare to any stock you choose. This is useful if you want to benchmark against a specific competitor or reference stock.
NEW! INDUSTRY ANALYSIS (STOCKS ONLY)
The indicator now provides multi-level analysis by automatically detecting and comparing your stock to its specific industry , not just the broad sector.
Why Industry matters:
Technology sector (XLK) contains many different industries: Software, Semiconductors, Hardware, etc. A software stock might beat the broad tech sector but lag behind other software companies. Industry analysis provides this granular view.
Industry ETF Mapping (30+ industries):
Software/Applications: IGV (iShares Software ETF)
Semiconductors: SMH (VanEck Semiconductor ETF)
Biotech: IBB (iShares Biotechnology ETF)
Pharmaceuticals: XPH (SPDR Pharmaceuticals ETF)
Banks: KBE (SPDR S&P Bank ETF)
Regional Banks: KRE (SPDR Regional Banking ETF)
Oil & Gas Exploration: XOP (SPDR Oil & Gas Exploration ETF)
Homebuilders: XHB (SPDR Homebuilders ETF)
Retail: XRT (SPDR S&P Retail ETF)
Aerospace & Defense: ITA (iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF)
And many more...
Industry Leader Mapping:
The indicator also identifies the leader within each industry:
Software: Microsoft (MSFT)
Semiconductors: NVIDIA (NVDA)
Biotech: Amgen (AMGN)
Pharmaceuticals: Eli Lilly (LLY)
Banks: JPMorgan (JPM)
Oil Exploration: ConocoPhillips (COP)
And more...
New Table Rows for Stocks:
Industry ETF Performance - How the specific industry performed (green background)
Industry Leader Performance - How the top stock in the industry performed
vs Industry RS - Your stock's outperformance vs its industry ETF
Industry vs Sector RS - Is this industry hot or cold within its sector?
vs Industry Leader RS - Your stock's performance vs the industry's best
Why this is powerful:
A stock that beats both its sector AND its industry is showing strength at every level. This indicates true relative strength, not just riding sector-wide momentum.
Optional Custom Industry:
You can override automatic detection for both Industry ETF and Industry Leader in settings.
5. RS SCORE & GRADING SYSTEM (0-100)
The heart of the indicator is the RS Score - a weighted calculation that distills all the performance data into one clear number from 0 to 100.
How the score is calculated:
FOR STOCKS (with Industry data):
The indicator splits the weight between Sector (60%) and Industry (40%):
SECTOR RS (60% of total weight):
1 Month RS: 24% weight (40% × 0.6)
3 Month RS: 18% weight (30% × 0.6)
6 Month RS: 12% weight (20% × 0.6)
1 Year RS: 6% weight (10% × 0.6)
INDUSTRY RS (40% of total weight):
1 Month RS: 16% weight (40% × 0.4)
3 Month RS: 12% weight (30% × 0.4)
6 Month RS: 8% weight (20% × 0.4)
1 Year RS: 4% weight (10% × 0.4)
FOR OTHER ASSETS (Crypto, Forex, Commodities):
Uses full 100% weight on benchmark:
1 Month RS: 40% weight
3 Month RS: 30% weight
6 Month RS: 20% weight
1 Year RS: 10% weight
It starts at 50 (neutral) and adds or subtracts points based on your asset's relative strength in each period.
Bonus points:
+5 points if the sector is outperforming the market (sector rotation is bullish)
+5 points if the industry is outperforming its sector (hot industry) - STOCKS ONLY
+5 points if RS momentum is improving (getting stronger over time)
-5 points if RS momentum is declining (getting weaker)
The final score is capped between 0-100.
Letter Grade System:
90-100: A+ - Elite performer, crushing the sector
85-89: A - Excellent, strong outperformer
80-84: A- - Very good, above average
75-79: B+ - Good, solid performer
70-74: B - Above average, decent strength
65-69: B- - Slightly above average
60-64: C+ - Average, neutral strength
55-59: C - Below average
50-54: C- - Weak, slight underperformance
45-49: D+ - Concerning weakness
40-44: D - Poor, significant underperformance
0-39: F - Failing, avoid this stock
What scores mean for trading:
- RS Score above 70: Strong stocks worth considering for long positions
- RS Score 50-70: Average stocks, better opportunities elsewhere
- RS Score below 50: Weak stocks, avoid or consider for shorts
6. CONSISTENCY SCORE
This metric shows what percentage of time periods show positive RS .
For STOCKS (with Industry data):
Counts both Sector RS periods AND Industry RS periods (up to 8 total periods):
- If a stock beats both sector and industry in all 4 periods each: Consistency = 100% (8/8)
- If it beats in 6 out of 8 total periods: Consistency = 75%
- If it beats in 4 out of 8 total periods: Consistency = 50%
For OTHER ASSETS:
Counts benchmark periods only (4 total):
- If it beats benchmark in all 4 periods (1M, 3M, 6M, 1Y): Consistency = 100%
- If it beats in 3 out of 4 periods: Consistency = 75%
- If it beats in 2 out of 4 periods: Consistency = 50%
Why consistency matters:
A high RS Score with low consistency might indicate a recent spike that could fade. The best stocks show both high RS Score AND high consistency - they're strong now AND have been strong historically at both the sector AND industry level.
Look for stocks with:
Consistency above 75%: Very reliable strength across all levels
Consistency 50-75%: Decent but check other metrics
Consistency below 50%: Weak or erratic, proceed with caution
7. BETA CALCULATION (Volatility Measure)
Beta measures how much more volatile your stock is compared to its sector.
Beta > 1.2 : High volatility - stock moves more aggressively than sector (marked as "High")
Beta 0.8-1.2 : Normal volatility - moves roughly in line with sector
Beta < 0.8 : Low volatility - stock is more stable than sector (marked as "Low")
Formula used:
Beta = Correlation(Stock, Sector) × (Standard Deviation of Stock / Standard Deviation of Sector)
This uses a 20-period calculation for reliability.
How to use Beta:
- High Beta stocks offer bigger gains but also bigger risks - good for aggressive traders
- Low Beta stocks are more defensive - good for conservative positions
- Match Beta to your risk tolerance and strategy
8. DAYS ABOVE/BELOW SECTOR
This tracks consecutive periods (bars) where your stock outperforms or underperforms its sector.
Days Above Sector:
Counts how many bars in a row your stock has beaten the sector.
10+ days: Strong sustained strength (shown in bright green)
5-9 days: Building momentum (shown in yellow)
1-4 days: Early strength (shown in white)
0 days: Not currently outperforming
Days Below Sector:
Counts how many bars in a row your stock has lagged the sector.
10+ days: Sustained weakness (shown in bright red)
5-9 days: Losing momentum (shown in orange)
1-4 days: Minor weakness (shown in white)
0 days: Not underperforming (this is good!)
Why this matters:
Long streaks show trend persistence. A stock with 15+ days above sector is riding strong momentum. A stock with 15+ days below sector is in a sustained downtrend relative to peers.
9. PRICE VS 52-WEEK HIGH
Shows where current price sits relative to its 52-week high (or equivalent for your timeframe).
95%+ (green) : Stock is near all-time highs - strong positioning
80-94% (yellow) : Stock is in a pullback but still relatively strong
Below 80% : Stock has pulled back significantly from highs
Why this matters:
The strongest stocks stay near their highs. When you see a stock with high RS Score AND price near 52W high, you've found a stock with institutional support and strong buying pressure.
10. RELATIVE VOLUME
Compares current volume to the 20-period average volume.
1.5x+ (green) : High volume - significant interest and participation
Around 1.0x : Average volume - normal trading activity
Below 1.0x : Low volume - less interest or inactive period
Why volume matters:
High relative volume confirms price moves. When a stock makes a strong move on 2x or 3x normal volume, it's more likely to sustain. Low volume moves are often just noise.
11. AVERAGE RS STRENGTH
This calculates the average absolute value of all RS readings across the four timeframes.
It shows the magnitude of divergence from the sector, regardless of direction. A high number means the stock moves very differently from its sector (could be much stronger or much weaker). A low number means it tracks closely with the sector.
High Average RS: Stock has strong character, moves independently
Low Average RS: Stock follows sector closely, lacks individual strength
12. SECTOR ROTATION SIGNAL
This indicator automatically detects when a sector is experiencing bullish rotation - meaning money is flowing into the sector and it's outperforming the broader market.
Condition for bullish rotation:
Sector must be beating SPY (market) in both 1-month AND 3-month periods.
Why this matters:
Stocks in hot sectors tend to perform better because they have tailwinds from sector-wide buying. When sector rotation is bullish and your stock has a high RS Score, you've found an ideal setup.
The indicator adds +5 bonus points to the RS Score when sector rotation is bullish.
13. MOMENTUM DETECTION
The indicator compares 1-month RS to 3-month RS to detect if momentum is improving or declining.
RS Momentum Improving: 1M RS is better than 3M RS - stock is getting stronger (adds +5 to score)
RS Momentum Declining: 1M RS is worse than 3M RS - stock is getting weaker (subtracts -5 from score)
Why momentum matters:
You want to catch stocks as momentum is building, not after it's already peaked. Improving momentum suggests the strength is accelerating, not fading.
14. OVERALL ASSESSMENT & RECOMMENDATION
The indicator provides two quick summary rows:
Overall Rating:
Based on grade and RS Score, you get an instant quality rating:
Strong Leader (A/A+) - Top tier stock, crushing it
Above Average (A-/B+) - Solid performer, better than most
Average (B/B-) - Middle of the pack
Below Average (C/C+) - Struggling, watch carefully
Underperformer (D/F) - Weak stock, underperforming badly
Trading Signal:
Combines multiple factors to give setup quality:
STRONG BUY SETUP - RS Score 70+, Consistency 75+, AND sector rotation bullish. This is the perfect storm - strong stock, consistent strength, hot sector.
BULLISH - RS Score 60+, Consistency 50+. Good quality stock worth considering.
NEUTRAL - RS Score 50+. Okay but not exciting, better opportunities exist.
WEAK - RS Score 40-49. Below average, risky.
AVOID - RS Score below 40. Stay away, too weak.
IMPORTANT: These are educational signals only, not financial advice. Always do your own analysis and risk management.

3. Check if sector rotation is bullish (bonus!)
4. Verify price is near 52W high (95%+)
5. Wait for entry setup on your chart
6. Use stop loss below key support
Example Setup:
Stock shows:
- RS Score: 82 (Grade: A-)
- Consistency: 100% (strong across all periods)
- Sector Rotation: Bullish
- Price vs 52W High: 96%
- Days Above Sector: 12 days
- Relative Volume: 1.8x
This is a textbook strong stock in a hot sector near highs - ideal for swing long.
FOR POSITION TRADERS:
1. Focus on 6-month and 1-year RS values
2. Look for sustained outperformance (Consistency 75%+)
3. Prefer lower Beta stocks (less volatility)
4. Check Days Above Sector for trend persistence
5. Monitor RS Score monthly, exit if drops below 60
FOR ACTIVE TRADERS:
1. Use on intraday timeframes (1H or 4H)
2. Set RS Score filter to 60+ for quick screening
3. Enable Divergence Alerts
4. Watch for momentum improving signal
5. Higher Beta stocks offer more movement
FOR SHORT SELLERS:
1. Look for RS Score below 40 (Grade: D or F)
2. Check for declining momentum
3. Verify Days Below Sector is increasing (10+)
4. Sector rotation should be bearish
5. Price should be well off 52W high
WHAT MAKES A PERFECT SETUP:
The holy grail combination:
RS Score: 75+ (A- or better)
Consistency: 80%+ (strong across time - beats sector AND industry)
Sector Rotation: Bullish (hot sector)
Industry vs Sector: Positive (hot industry within sector)
Days Above Sector: 10+ (sustained strength)
Momentum: Improving (getting stronger)
Price vs 52W High: 90%+ (near highs)
Relative Volume: 1.5x+ (volume confirmation)
When you find this combination, you've located a stock with every advantage in its favor - strong at the stock level, industry level, AND sector level. That's multi-level confirmation of relative strength.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Data Reliability:
All calculations use lookahead=off for anti-repaint protection
Historical values will never change
Real-time indicator toggle only affects the visual clock icon, not data reliability
All security requests are properly configured to prevent future data leakage
Sector Mapping Notes:
Sector detection uses TradingView's sector field
Some stocks may not have sector data - indicator will adapt
Sector ETFs used: XLK, XLF, XLV, XLE, XLY, XLP, XLI, XLB, XLRE, XLU, XLC
Major market ETFs (SPY, QQQ, DIA) are treated as market benchmarks, not stocks
Multi-Asset Notes:
Crypto compares to CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL (total crypto market cap)
Forex compares to relevant currency index based on base currency
Commodities compare to Gold (GLD) as primary commodity benchmark
Custom leaders can be set for any asset type
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What does RS Score of 75 actually mean?
A: It means your stock is strongly outperforming its sector across multiple timeframes. The score is weighted toward recent performance (1-month gets 40% weight), so 75 indicates sustained relative strength with emphasis on current momentum.
Q: My stock has high RS Score but is going down. Why?
A: RS Score measures relative performance (vs sector/market), not absolute price direction. A stock can fall 5% while its sector falls 10% - that's still positive relative strength. In bear markets or sector corrections, high RS stocks often fall less than peers.
Q: Should I only trade stocks with RS Score above 70?
A: For long positions, yes - focus on 70+ scores. These stocks have proven they can beat their sector. However, for pairs trading or relative value plays, you might also short stocks with scores below 40 while longing stocks above 70.
Q: What if my stock doesn't have a sector?
A: The indicator handles this gracefully. If no sector is detected, it will compare directly to the market (SPY for stocks). Some rows may show N/A, but the indicator will still provide useful market-relative data.
Q: Why does the sector sometimes show N/A?
A: This happens when: 1) Your asset has no sector classification, 2) The stock IS the sector ETF itself, 3) You're analyzing a non-stock asset (crypto, forex, commodity). The indicator adapts by focusing on market-relative metrics instead.
Q: Can I use this on cryptocurrencies?
A: Yes! The indicator automatically detects crypto and compares to the Total Crypto Market Cap (CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL). You can also set a custom leader like Bitcoin (BTCUSD) to compare against the dominant crypto.
Q: What's the difference between RS Score and Consistency?
A: RS Score is the weighted average of how much you're beating the sector (magnitude). Consistency is what percentage of time periods show outperformance (reliability). You want both high - that means strong AND consistent.
Q: Do the alerts repaint?
A: No. All alerts fire only on bar close (barstate.isconfirmed) and use properly configured data with lookahead=off. Once an alert fires, it's final and won't change.
Q: What timeframe should I use?
A: For swing trading: Daily or Weekly. For day trading: 1H or 4H. For position trading: Weekly. Use "Chart Timeframe" mode and switch your chart timeframe to change the analysis period easily.
Q: Why is Days Above Sector showing 0?
A: This means your stock is not currently outperforming its sector. If Days Below Sector is also 0, it means the RS is exactly neutral (very rare). Check the actual RS values to see current standing.
Q: Can I compare to a different market benchmark than SPY?
A: Currently the indicator uses SPY (S&P 500) as the default US stock market benchmark. For crypto it uses CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL, for forex it uses currency indices, etc. The benchmark auto-adjusts based on asset type.
Q: What's a good Beta value?
A: It depends on your strategy. Aggressive traders prefer Beta above 1.2 (more volatility = bigger moves). Conservative traders prefer Beta 0.8-1.0 (more stable). Beta is neutral - it's about matching your risk tolerance.
Q: How often does the table update?
A: With Real-time Indicator enabled: Every tick (constant updates). With it disabled: Only on bar close. Either way, the underlying data is identical and non-repainting - the toggle only affects update frequency and the clock icon display.
Q: My stock is showing "AVOID" but it's up 50% this year. Is the indicator wrong?
A: Not necessarily. The indicator measures RELATIVE performance. If your stock is up 50% but the sector is up 100%, your stock is actually underperforming by 50%. The indicator helps you identify when you should switch to stronger stocks in the same sector.
Q: What does "Strong Buy Setup" really mean?
A: It means three things aligned: 1) RS Score above 70 (strong stock), 2) Consistency above 75% (reliable strength), 3) Sector rotation is bullish (hot sector). This combination historically correlates with stocks that continue outperforming. However, this is NOT financial advice - always do your own analysis.
Q: Can I use this for options trading?
A: Yes! High RS Score stocks make good candidates for call options (bullish bets) while low RS Score stocks may work for puts (bearish bets). Higher Beta stocks will have more volatile options (higher premiums but more movement).
Q: Why is my crypto showing N/A for sector?
A: Cryptocurrencies don't have "sectors" like stocks do. Instead, the indicator compares crypto to the total crypto market cap. This is normal and expected behavior.
Q: What happens if I'm analyzing an ETF?
A: If you're analyzing a sector ETF (like XLK), it will compare to SPY (market). If you're analyzing SPY itself, some comparisons won't be available (can't compare SPY to itself). The indicator intelligently adapts to avoid circular comparisons.
Q: What if my stock doesn't have industry data?
A: Not all stocks are mapped to specific industries (only 30+ major industries are covered). If no industry is detected, the indicator will still work using only sector analysis. The RS Score calculation will use 100% sector weight instead of the 60%/40% split.
Q: Why does Industry vs Sector matter?
A: Industry vs Sector shows if your specific industry is hot or cold within its broader sector. For example, Semiconductors (SMH) might be outperforming Technology sector (XLK) even though both are up. This helps you find not just strong sectors, but the strongest industries within those sectors.
Q: Can I disable Industry analysis?
A: Yes! In the "Industry Analysis" settings group, you can toggle off "Show Industry Analysis in Table" to hide all industry rows. However, even when hidden, industry data still contributes to the RS Score calculation for stocks.
Q: Why is my Consistency Score lower for stocks than other assets?
A: For stocks with industry data, Consistency counts 8 periods (4 Sector + 4 Industry periods) instead of just 4. This means the bar is higher - your stock needs to beat both sector AND industry consistently. A stock that beats sector in all 4 periods but lags industry in 2 periods will show 75% consistency (6/8), not 100%.
BEST PRACTICES
Use as a screening tool - Set RS Score filter to 70+ and quickly scan your watchlist. Only strong stocks will show the table.
Combine with technical analysis - RS Score tells you WHAT to trade, your chart tells you WHEN to enter.
Check multiple timeframes - Switch between Daily and Weekly to see if strength holds across different time horizons.
Monitor sector rotation - When sector goes from bearish to bullish rotation, it's often a great time to enter stocks in that sector.
Watch Industry vs Sector - Stocks in hot industries within hot sectors have double tailwinds. Prioritize Industry vs Sector positive values.
Pay attention to consistency - High RS Score with low consistency might be a spike that fades. Look for 70%+ consistency across BOTH sector and industry.
Use the leader comparison - If your stock consistently beats both sector leader AND industry leader, you may have found the next champion.
Watch days above/below sector - Long streaks (15+ days) indicate strong trends. Look for these in conjunction with high RS Score.
Set alerts on key stocks - Enable RS Score alerts at 70 threshold to get notified when watchlist stocks become strong.
Consider Beta for position sizing - Size smaller positions in high Beta stocks, larger in low Beta stocks for balanced risk.
Exit when RS Score drops - If a stock's RS Score falls below 60, consider reducing or exiting - the strength may be fading.
Leverage industry-level insight - If Industry ETF is weak but stock is strong, that's standout strength. If Industry is hot but stock is lagging, consider switching to the industry leader instead.

WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOESN'T DO
To set proper expectations:
Does NOT provide entry/exit signals - this is a strength analyzer, not a trading system
Does NOT predict future price movement - shows current and historical relative strength
Does NOT guarantee profits - strong RS stocks can still decline
Does NOT replace your own analysis - use as one tool among many
Does NOT work on stocks with no sector data - will adapt but some rows show N/A
This indicator is a decision support tool . It helps you identify which stocks are showing relative strength so you can make more informed trading decisions. You still need your own entry strategy, risk management, and position sizing rules.

FINAL REMINDER
This indicator is a tool for analyzing relative strength - it shows you which stocks are outperforming their sector and market. It does NOT provide financial advice or trade signals. Always conduct your own research, manage your risk appropriately, and consult with a financial advisor before making investment decisions.
Past performance of relative strength does not guarantee future results. Strong stocks can become weak, and sectors rotate in and out of favor. Use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, not as a standalone decision-making system.
Trade smart, manage risk, and may your RS Scores stay high!

How To Use
Dashboard Interpretation
The dashboard displays a color-coded table with the following columns:
TF: Timeframe being analyzed
C: Current candle (Green=bullish, Red=bearish)
P: Previous candle (Green=bullish, Red=bearish)
ORB: Opening Range Breakout position (A=Above, B=Below, W=Within)
VWAP: Price vs VWAP (A=Above, B=Below)
E200: Price vs 200 EMA (A=Above, B=Below)
D Hi/Lo: Proximity to current day high/low (Hi/Lo/Mid)
PD Hi/Lo: Proximity to previous day high/low (Hi/Lo/Mid)
9 vs 21: EMA 9 vs EMA 21 relationship (A=9 above 21, B=9 below 21)
9&21 v200: Both EMAs vs 200 EMA (>>=both above, <<=both below, <>=mixed)
Signal Generation
Long Entry Signal triggers when:
Minimum number of timeframes show bullish alignment (default: 5 of 6)
Higher timeframes (30m/1h/4h) confirm direction (default: 2 of 3)
Price breaks above ORB high with sufficient distance
Volume exceeds average by specified multiplier
ATR shows adequate volatility
Trade occurs during optimal session hours
Recent momentum is upward
Price not too close to daily high
Strong bullish candle forms
Short Entry Signal uses opposite conditions
Exit Signals trigger when opposing timeframe confluence reaches threshold (default: 3 timeframes)
Recommended Workflow
Select your asset and primary trading timeframe
Observe the dashboard - Look for rows showing mostly green (bullish) or red (bearish)
Wait for alignment - The indicator will show arrows when confluence requirements are met
Check the bottom rows - Review ORB levels and daily ranges for context
Set alerts - Enable TradingView alerts using the built-in alert conditions
Manage risk - Use appropriate position sizing and stop losses based on ORB range or daily ATR

Important Notes
This indicator works best on liquid instruments with clear price action
Highly volatile markets may require adjusted ATR and ORB distance settings
Session times are in EST timezone—adjust if trading non-US markets
The ORB calculation requires sufficient price history for the day
Signals are generated in real-time but should be confirmed at candle close
Limitations
Maximum of 6 timeframes can be analyzed due to TradingView's security call limits
ORB calculations may not work correctly on instruments with gaps or irregular sessions
The indicator is most effective during regular market hours when volume and volatility are adequate
Lower timeframes (1m, 5m) may produce more false signals in choppy conditions
