Volume Index (0-100)Volume Index (0-100) Indicator
The Volume Index (0-100) indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders understand current volume levels in relation to past activity over a specified period. By normalizing volume data to a scale from 0 to 100, this indicator makes it easy to compare today's volume against recent history and gauge the strength of market movements.
Key Features:
Normalized Volume Index: The indicator indexes volume between 0 and 100, allowing traders to easily determine if the current volume is unusually high or low compared to recent trends.
Colored Visualization: The line graph is colored green for positive volume (increasing activity) and red for negative volume (decreasing activity). This helps traders quickly grasp the market sentiment and volume direction.
User-Defined Lookback Period: Traders can customize the lookback period to best fit their trading strategy, providing flexibility for different market conditions.
How Traders Can Use It:
Identifying Volume Extremes: The Volume Index helps identify periods of unusually high or low volume. Values approaching 100 indicate high volume, while values close to 0 indicate low volume.
Confirmation Tool: During price movements, high volume (near 100) can act as a confirmation signal for the strength of the trend. For instance, a high volume during an uptrend may indicate strong buying interest.
Divergence Analysis: Traders can look for divergences between volume and price. For example, if the price is consolidating while the Volume Index remains high, it could signal an impending breakout.
Volume Alerts: The indicator includes an alert feature when the Volume Index exceeds 80, helping traders stay informed about potential shifts in market volatility.

The script ensures all plotted elements are dynamically adjusted to keep the chart clean and focused on actionable data.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart.
Customize levels, colors, and styles via the "Inputs" and "Style" settings.
Analyze the plotted levels to identify key price zones for potential support, resistance, or breakout areas.
NSDT Custom High and Low LinesFirst, the credit for the original script to plot a High and Low between a certain time goes to developer paaax.
I took that idea, converted it to Pinescript V5, cleaned up the code, and added a few more lines so you can plot different levels based on time of day.
Published open source like the original.
The example shown has:
Blue - plotting from the start of the Futures Asian session to the start of the Futures USA Session. (6:00PM - 9:30AM Eastern)
Yellow - plotting from the start of the Futures Europe session to the start of the Futures USA Session. (3:00AM - 9:30AM Eastern)
Green - plotting from the start of the Futures US Premarket session to the start of the Futures USA Session. (8:00AM - 9:30AM Eastern)
These are great levels to use for breakouts and/or support and resistance.
Combine these levels with the 5 min Open Range levels, as you have some good trades.
Each of the three sessions have individual start and end times that can be modified by the trader, so you can easily mark off important areas for your style of trading.

Triple VWAP# Triple VWAP Indicator
## Description
The Triple VWAP Indicator is a powerful tool for traders who rely on Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) in their analysis. This indicator displays three VWAP lines on a single chart, each representing a different time frame: Session, Weekly, and Monthly.
## Features
- Session VWAP (Blue Line): Resets daily, providing intraday volume-weighted average price.
- Weekly VWAP (Green Line): Resets weekly, offering a medium-term perspective.
- Monthly VWAP (Red Line): Resets monthly, giving a longer-term view of price action relative to volume.
## How It Works
The indicator calculates the VWAP for each time frame separately, using the specified price source (default is HLC3). It then plots these values on your chart, allowing you to see how the current price compares to the volume-weighted average across different time periods.
## Use Cases
- Multi-timeframe Analysis: Compare short-term price movements against longer-term trends.
- Support and Resistance: VWAP lines often act as dynamic support/resistance levels.
- Mean Reversion: Identify potential overbought or oversold conditions when price deviates significantly from VWAP.
- Trend Confirmation: Use multiple VWAP lines to confirm trend strength and potential reversals.
## Customization
Users can customize the indicator by changing the price source and offset in the settings. The color and thickness of each VWAP line can also be adjusted in the code for personal preference.
## Note
This indicator is most effective on intraday charts but can provide valuable insights on any time frame. Remember that VWAP is typically most relevant for institutional traders on a session-by-session basis.
Enhance your trading strategy with the Triple VWAP Indicator – a versatile tool for comprehensive price-volume analysis across multiple time frames.

[MAD] Fibonacci Bands with SmoothingHi, this is just an easy script, nothing special, it was a request from a community member and was finished in just 40 minutes :D
This indicator offers a approach to tracking market price movements by utilizing Fibonacci-based levels combined with customizable smoothing options for both the bands and the high/low values.
Key Features:
Customizable Moving Averages: Choose from a variety of smoothing methods, including SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA, and advanced Ehlers-based methods.
This allows for flexible adaptation to different assets.
Multiple Fibonacci Band Multipliers: The user can define six different multipliers for both the upper and lower Fibonacci bands, allowing for granular customization of the indicator. The middle line serves as the central reference, and the multipliers extend the bands outward based on price range dynamics.
High/Low Smoothing: In addition to smoothing the Fibonacci bands, users can apply smoothing to the high and low prices that form the basis for calculating the Fibonacci bands. This ensures that the indicator responds smoothly to market movements, reducing noise while capturing key trends.
Forward Shift Option: Allows for projecting the bands into the future by shifting the calculated levels forward by a user-specified number of periods. This feature is particularly useful for those interested in anticipating price actions and future trends.
Visual Enhancements: The indicator features filled regions between bands to clearly visualize the zones of price movement. The fills between the bands offer insight into potential support and resistance zones, based on price levels defined by the Fibonacci ratios.
How It Works:
The indicator uses the highest and lowest closing prices over a specified lookback period to establish a price range. Based on this range, it calculates the middle line (0.5 level) and applies user-defined Fibonacci multipliers to generate both upper and lower bands. Users have control over the smoothing method for both the high/low prices and the bands themselves, allowing for an adaptive experience that can be tailored to different timeframes or market conditions.
For visualization, areas between the upper and lower bands are filled with distinct colors, providing an intuitive view of the potential price zones where the market might react or consolidate.
These fills highlight the zones created by the Fibonacci bands, helping users identify critical market levels with ease.
have fun

Stock WatchOverview
Watch list are very common in trading, but most of them simply provide the means of tracking a list of symbols and their current price. Then, you click through the list and perform some additional analysis individually from a chart setup. What this indicator is designed to do is provide a watch list that employs a high/low price range analysis in a table view across multiple time ranges for a much faster analysis of the symbols you are watching.
Discussion
The concept of this Stock Watch indicator is best understood when you think in terms of a 52 Week Range indication on many financial web sites. Taken a given symbol, what is the high and the low over a 52 week range and then determine where current price is within that range from a percentage perspective between 0% and 100%.
With this concept in mind, let's see how this Stock Watch indicator is meant to benefit.
There are four different H/L ranges relative to the chart's setting and a Scope property. Let's use a three month (3M) chart as our example and set the indicator's Scope = 4. A 3M chart provides three months of data in a single candle, now when we set the Scope = 4 we are stating that 1X is going to look over four candles for the high/low range.
The Scope property is used to determine how many candles it is to scan to determine the high/low range for the corresponding 1X, 3X, 5X and 10X periods. This is how different time ranges are put into perspective. Using a 3M chart with Scope = 4 would represent the following time windows:
- 1X = 3M * 4 is a 12 Months or 1 Year High/Low Range
- 3X = 3M * 4 * 3 is a 36 Months or 3 Years High/Low Range
- 5X = 3M * 4 * 5 is a 60 Months or 5 Years High/Low Range
- 10X = 3M * 4 * 10 is a 120 Months or 10 Years High/Low Range.
With these calculations, the indicator then determines where current price is within each of these High/Low ranges from a percentage perspective between 0% and 100%.
Once the 0% to 100% value is calculated, it then will shade the value according to a color gradient from red to green (or any other two colors you set the indictor to). This color shading really helps to interpret current price quickly.
The greater power to this range and color shading comes when you are able to see where price is according to price history across the multiple time windows. In this example, there is quick analysis across 1 Year, 3 Year, 5 Year and 10 Year windows.
Now let's further improve this quick analysis over 15 different stocks for which the indicator allows you to watch up to at any one time.
For value traders this is huge, because we're always looking for the bargains and we wait for price to be in the value range. Using this indicator helps to instantly see if price has entered a value range before we decide to do further analysis with other charting and fundamental tools.
The Code
The heart of all this is really very simple as you can see in the following code snippet. We're simply looking for the highest high and lowest low across the different scopes and calculating the percentage of the range where current price is for each symbol being watched.
scope = baseScope
watch1X = math.round(((watchClose - ta.lowest(watchLow, scope)) / (ta.highest(watchHigh, scope) - ta.lowest(watchLow, scope))) * 100, 0)
table.cell(tblWatch, columnId, 2, str.format("{0, number, #}%", watch1X), text_size = size.small, text_color = colorText, bgcolor = getBackColor(watch1X))
//3X Lookback
scope := baseScope * 3
watch3X = math.round(((watchClose - ta.lowest(watchLow, scope)) / (ta.highest(watchHigh, scope) - ta.lowest(watchLow, scope))) * 100, 0)
table.cell(tblWatch, columnId, 3, str.format("{0, number, #}%", watch3X), text_size = size.small, text_color = colorText, bgcolor = getBackColor(watch3X))
Conclusion
The example I've laid out here are for large time windows, because I'm a long term investor. However, keep in mind that this can work on any chart setting, you just need to remember that your chart's time period and scope work together to determine what 1X, 3X, 5X and 10X represent.
Let me try and give you one last scenario on this. Consider your chart is set for a 60 minute chart, meaning each candle represents 60 minutes of time and you set the Stock Watch indicator to a scope = 4. These settings would now represent the following and you would be watching up to 15 different stocks across these windows at one time.
1X = 60 minutes * 4 is 240 minutes or 4 hours of time.
3X = 60 minutes * 4 * 3 = 720 minutes or 12 hours of time.
5X = 60 minutes * 4 * 5 = 1200 minutes or 20 hours of time.
10X = 60 minutes * 4 * 10 = 2400 minutes or 40 hours of time.
I hope you find value in my contribution to the cause of trading, and if you have any comments or critiques, I would love to here from you in the comments.

█ Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C Sherif's HiLo
The Sherif's HiLo trading strategy aims to identify high and low price levels in the market.
The code calculates the minimum and maximum prices observed within specific ranges.
Based on the closing price, the strategy determines the position of two lines. One line represents a potential support level, while the other represents a potential resistance level.
If the closing price is higher than the previous value, the strategy identifies the minimum price within the range as the support level.
If the closing price is lower than the previous value, the strategy identifies the maximum price within the range as the resistance level.
Traders can use these levels as reference points to make trading decisions, such as identifying potential entry or exit points in the market.
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
8. Metamorphosis - a technical indicator that produces a compound signal from the combination of other GKD indicators*
*(not part of the NNFX algorithm)
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
What is an Metamorphosis indicator?
The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, or GKD-E slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v2.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
6. GKD-M - Metamorphosis module (Metamorphosis, Number 8 in the NNFX algorithm, but not part of the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data to A backtest module wherein the various components of the GKD system are combined to create a trading signal.
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Multi-Ticker CC Backtest
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Sherif's HiLo as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: uf2018
Continuation: Coppock Curve
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Metamorphosis: Baseline Optimizer
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, GKD-M, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD system.

HL ATRUnlocking Market Volatility: The Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator
As seasoned traders know, accurately identifying and leveraging market highs and lows can significantly impact your trading performance. One innovative tool for harnessing these inflection points is the Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator. Built for intuitive trading, this indicator offers a distinctive edge in identifying key trading signals in volatile markets.
1. Understanding the Indicator
At its core, the Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator operates by pinpointing the highest highs and lowest lows within a specified lookback period. What sets it apart is its ability to adapt and respond to market volatility, enhancing its utility in various market conditions.
Key parameters include the lookback period, the number of confirmation candles, the number of previous high/low lines to display, and the Average True Range (ATR) period. Each of these inputs offers the trader flexibility to fine-tune the indicator to suit their specific trading style and the prevailing market conditions.
2. Harnessing the Power of Highs and Lows
The indicator begins by charting the highest high and the lowest low within your chosen lookback period. These highs and lows are treated as levels of resistance and support, respectively. Once identified, lines are drawn at these points, offering visual cues for strategic trading.
However, the indicator doesn't stop at identifying these levels. It waits for the price to confirm these levels, using a user-defined number of 'Confirmation Candles'. This ensures that the highs and lows are robust and significant, thereby minimizing the risk of false breakouts or breakdowns.
3. Volatility Filter: The ATR
The incorporation of the ATR into this indicator is a key distinguishing feature. The ATR measures market volatility by calculating the range of price movements over a given period. By incorporating the ATR, this indicator can adapt to changes in volatility. Specifically, the ATR acts as a filter for the buy and sell signals, helping to avoid false signals during low volatility periods and highlight meaningful breaks during high volatility periods.
4. Deciphering Buy and Sell Signals
The Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator offers clear signals for potential entry points. A 'Buy' label appears when the price breaks and closes above a previously identified high by an amount greater than the ATR. Conversely, a 'Sell' label is generated when the price breaks and closes below a previously identified low by an amount greater than the ATR.
5. Where Does This Indicator Shine?
This indicator thrives in markets characterized by high volatility. The ATR component allows the tool to adjust itself to changing market conditions, enhancing its effectiveness in volatile markets. It suits various financial markets, including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies, among others.
However, it's crucial to remember that this tool should not be used in isolation. It's most effective when used in conjunction with other indicators and within the context of a well-planned trading strategy. Always remember to use good risk management and adjust the settings of the indicator as per changing market conditions.
In conclusion, the Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator is a versatile and powerful tool for traders seeking to capitalize on market volatility. By combining the power of highs, lows, and the ATR, this indicator offers an innovative approach to navigating the financial markets.
Basic steps of how you could use this indicator for trading.
Identify Highs and Lows: The indicator draws lines at the highest high and lowest low of a given lookback period. Use these lines to identify key levels of support (lows) and resistance (highs).
Confirm the Trend: Wait for the price to confirm these levels. This is done by the number of 'Confirmation Candles'. For example, if 'Confirmation Candles' is set to 7, then a high or low is confirmed if the price has not broken that level in the past 7 candles.
Use the ATR as a Filter: The Average True Range (ATR) is used as a volatility filter. It can help to filter out signals that occur during low volatility periods, which might be false breakouts or breakdowns.
Entry Points: Entry points are determined by the labels "Buy" and "Sell" that appear on the chart.
Buy Signal: When a 'Buy' label appears, this indicates the price has broken above a previously identified high and closed above it by an amount greater than the ATR. This could be considered a bullish signal and a potential point to enter a long position.
Sell Signal: When a 'Sell' label appears, this indicates the price has broken below a previously identified low and closed below it by an amount greater than the ATR. This could be considered a bearish signal and a potential point to enter a short position.
Exit Points: The indicator does not provide specific exit points. These would need to be based on your risk tolerance, trading strategy, and other factors. You might consider exiting a position when the price reaches a new high/low, when a contrary signal appears, or when the price breaks a certain level of support or resistance.
Risk Management: It's important to set stop-loss levels and take-profit levels for each trade. This could be based on a fixed percentage, the ATR, or the highs and lows identified by the indicator.
Periodically Adjust Settings: Depending on market conditions, you might need to adjust the settings of the indicator, like the lookback period, confirmation candles, and ATR period.
Remember, this indicator should not be used in isolation. It's best to use it in combination with other tools and techniques, and always in the context of a well-planned trading strategy. It's also important to backtest any strategy before using it in live trading.
