3-in-1 Oscillator Pro3-IN-1 OSCILLATOR PRO: PMO + MACD + OBV
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎯 WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES
The 3-in-1 Oscillator Pro combines three powerful momentum indicators into ONE clean, normalized oscillator panel. No more cluttered charts with multiple indicator windows - this combines Price Momentum Oscillator (PMO), MACD, and On-Balance Volume (OBV) into a single, actionable view.
**The Secret Sauce:** Advanced normalization technology puts all three indicators on the SAME SCALE, allowing you to compare momentum, trend, and volume flow side-by-side for the first time ever.
**Bonus Feature:** Automatic pattern detection for divergences, double tops/bottoms, and head & shoulders patterns across ALL THREE indicators simultaneously!
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔥 WHY THIS IS A GAME CHANGER
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
**Traditional Problem:**
- PMO ranges from -10 to +10
- MACD ranges from -2 to +2
- OBV ranges in millions
→ You CAN'T plot them together or compare them directly!
**Our Solution:**
Advanced normalization (Z-Score, Min-Max, or Percentage) puts ALL indicators on the same -3 to +3 scale, allowing you to:
✅ See when all 3 indicators AGREE (high conviction setups)
✅ Spot DIVERGENCES between momentum, trend, and volume
✅ Identify which indicator is leading vs lagging
✅ Make faster, more confident trading decisions
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📊 THE THREE INDICATORS EXPLAINED
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
**1️⃣ PMO (Price Momentum Oscillator)** - BLUE LINE
- Advanced momentum indicator based on Rate of Change
- Smoother than RSI, more responsive than MACD
- Double EMA smoothing eliminates false signals
- Best for: Identifying momentum shifts EARLY
**How to Use:**
- PMO crossing above signal = Bullish momentum
- PMO crossing below signal = Bearish momentum
- PMO above 0 = Bullish zone
- PMO below 0 = Bearish zone
**2️⃣ MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)** - ORANGE LINE
- The industry standard trend-following indicator
- Shows relationship between two moving averages
- Histogram shows momentum strength
- Best for: Confirming trend direction
**How to Use:**
- MACD above signal = Uptrend
- MACD below signal = Downtrend
- Histogram growing = Momentum increasing
- Histogram shrinking = Momentum decreasing
**3️⃣ OBV (On-Balance Volume)** - GREEN LINE
- Measures buying vs selling pressure
- Uses volume to confirm price moves
- Leading indicator (moves before price)
- Best for: Validating breakouts and reversals
**How to Use:**
- OBV rising = Accumulation (smart money buying)
- OBV falling = Distribution (smart money selling)
- OBV divergence = Possible reversal ahead
- OBV confirms price = Strong trend
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎨 NORMALIZATION METHODS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Choose the normalization method that fits your trading style:
**Z-SCORE (DEFAULT - RECOMMENDED)**
- Statistical method measuring standard deviations from mean
- Values typically range from -3 to +3
- Best for: Identifying extreme readings and mean reversion
- Reading: -2 or below = Oversold | +2 or above = Overbought
**MIN-MAX SCALING**
- Scales to -1 to +1 range based on recent high/low
- Best for: Range-bound markets
- Reading: Shows position within recent range
**PERCENTAGE**
- Shows deviation from average as percentage
- Best for: Relative strength comparison
- Reading: Direct percentage above/below mean
**Normalization Period:** Adjustable from 20-500 bars (default 100)
- Shorter period = More reactive, more signals
- Longer period = Smoother, fewer false signals
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🎯 AUTOMATIC PATTERN DETECTION
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The indicator automatically detects 6 powerful patterns across ALL THREE oscillators:
**BULLISH PATTERNS** 🟢
1. **Bullish Divergence** - Price makes lower low, indicator makes higher low
→ Signals: Downtrend losing momentum, reversal likely
2. **Double Bottom** - Two similar lows with bounce in between
→ Signals: Strong support level, upward reversal setup
3. **Inverse Head & Shoulders** - Three troughs with middle one lowest
→ Signals: Major reversal pattern, strong bullish signal
**BEARISH PATTERNS** 🔴
4. **Bearish Divergence** - Price makes higher high, indicator makes lower high
→ Signals: Uptrend losing momentum, reversal likely
5. **Double Top** - Two similar highs with dip in between
→ Signals: Strong resistance level, downward reversal setup
6. **Head & Shoulders** - Three peaks with middle one highest
→ Signals: Major reversal pattern, strong bearish signal
**Pattern Table Display:**
- Shows current pattern for each indicator
- 🟢 BULL / 🔴 BEAR / ⚪ None signal
- Updates in real-time as patterns develop
- Positioned at bottom right (non-intrusive)
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
💡 HOW TO TRADE WITH THIS INDICATOR
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
**STRATEGY 1: TRIPLE CONFIRMATION**
Wait for all 3 indicators to agree:
- All pointing up = Strong BUY signal
- All pointing down = Strong SELL signal
- Mixed signals = Stay out or reduce position size
**STRATEGY 2: DIVERGENCE HUNTER**
Watch for divergences between price and indicators:
1. Price makes new high but PMO/MACD/OBV doesn't = Bearish divergence (SHORT setup)
2. Price makes new low but PMO/MACD/OBV doesn't = Bullish divergence (LONG setup)
3. When 2 or 3 indicators show same divergence = HIGHEST probability
**STRATEGY 3: VOLUME CONFIRMATION**
Use OBV to confirm price moves:
- Price breaking out + OBV rising = Valid breakout (BUY)
- Price breaking out + OBV falling = False breakout (AVOID)
- Price dropping + OBV rising = Bullish accumulation (BUY DIP)
- Price rising + OBV falling = Distribution (PREPARE TO SHORT)
**STRATEGY 4: MOMENTUM SHIFTS**
Use PMO for early entries:
- PMO crosses signal line + MACD confirms = Early entry
- PMO extreme reading (>+2 or <-2) = Possible reversal zone
- PMO divergence + Pattern detection = High probability setup
**STRATEGY 5: PATTERN POWER PLAYS**
When pattern table shows same pattern on 2+ indicators:
- 2 indicators show Bull Divergence = Strong LONG setup
- 2 indicators show Double Bottom = Strong BUY signal
- 3 indicators show bearish pattern = MAXIMUM conviction SHORT

DarkPool's Squeeze Momentum @author LazyBearDarkPool's Squeeze Momentum Pro is a comprehensive overhaul of the classic volatility indicator, designed for the modern trader who requires deeper market insight. While staying true to the core logic of the original TTM Squeeze, this version introduces advanced features like automatic divergence detection, dynamic moving average selection, and main-chart integration to help you time entries and exits with precision.
Credit: This script is built upon the foundational "Squeeze Momentum Indicator" originally developed by LazyBear. This version expands on that legacy with enhanced visualization, alert systems, and divergence logic.
Key Features
1. Advanced Divergence Detection
The indicator automatically scans for Regular Bullish and Regular Bearish divergences between price action and momentum.
Bullish Divergence (Green "BULL" Label): Occurs when Price makes a Lower Low, but Momentum makes a Higher Low. This often precedes a bullish reversal.
Bearish Divergence (Red "BEAR" Label): Occurs when Price makes a Higher High, but Momentum makes a Lower High. This often precedes a bearish reversal.
2. Multi-Mode Squeeze Detection
The central dots on the zero line tell you the state of market volatility:
Red Dot (Squeeze ON): Volatility is compressed. The Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channels. The market is "coiling" and preparing for an explosive move. Do not trade yet—wait for the fire.
Grey Dot (Squeeze OFF): The squeeze has "fired." Volatility is expanding, and price is moving.
Blue Dot (Wide Bands): Volatility is extremely high. The bands are exceptionally wide, often indicating the end of a trend or a period of high risk.
3. "Ghost" Histogram & Visual Depth
The momentum histogram features a "Ghost" fill (transparent background) to help visualize the volume of momentum without cluttering the screen.
Bright Green: Strong Bullish Momentum (Rising).
Dark Green: Weakening Bullish Momentum (Fading).
Bright Red: Strong Bearish Momentum (Falling).
Dark Red: Weakening Bearish Momentum (Recovering).
4. Dynamic Candle Coloring
Enabled by default, this feature colors the candles on your main chart to match the momentum histogram. This allows you to instantly gauge the trend strength without looking down at the oscillator pane.
5. Adaptive Calculation Engines
Unlike standard versions fixed to SMA, you can now select the moving average algorithm that drives the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels:
SMA: Standard, stable signals.
EMA: More reactive to recent price action.
WMA/RMA: Weighted options for specific strategies.
🛠 How to Operate
The "Squeeze & Fire" Strategy
Identify the Squeeze: Look for a series of Red Dots on the zero line. This indicates the market is resting and building energy.
The Trigger: Wait for the dot to turn Gray AND for the histogram to expand clearly in one direction.
Long Signal: Squeeze fires (Red -> Gray) + Histogram turns Green.
Short Signal: Squeeze fires (Red -> Gray) + Histogram turns Red.
The "Divergence Reversal" Strategy
Watch for "BULL" or "BEAR" labels appearing near the peaks or valleys of the histogram.
Confirmation: A divergence is a warning. Wait for the histogram color to change (e.g., from Bright Red to Dark Red) before entering a reversal trade.
⚙️ Settings Guide
Basis MA Type: Choose between SMA, EMA, WMA, or RMA to tune the sensitivity of the squeeze.
BB/KC Settings: Fully customizable Length and Multipliers to adapt to different assets (Crypto, Forex, or Stocks).
Pivot Lookback: Controls how strict the divergence detection is. Higher numbers = fewer, more significant signals.
Colour Main Chart Candles: Toggle this OFF if you prefer your standard candle colours.

Signal Vision - Divergence vs ES1!Signal Vision – Divergence vs ES1!
This TradingView indicator tracks the divergence between a chart’s RSI and the ES1 RSI. It plots an oscillator showing the difference between the two RSIs, helping identify when the asset is overperforming or underperforming the S&P 500 futures.
Multi Indicator Strategy with RSI Divergence - Voting SystemThe indicator works on any timeframe. It has a built-in trailing stop. It shows trend movements well. Adjustments are required for each asset. I recommend setting the trailing stop to 0.003, 0.002, and 0.1 for proper operation.
Divergence Scanner
Scanner and Indication (Divergence Scanner & Signal)An advanced experimental indicator designed to detect instances of Divergence between price action and key oscillator metrics (e.g., RSI or MACD).The primary function of this script is for Screener use. It plots a numerical value (a value greater than zero) on the chart when a confirmed bullish or bearish divergence signal appears."
ORION Trend Engine by Ali_KamberogluORION Trend Engine by Ali_Kamberoglu | Decode the DNA of a Trend: Adaptive Strength & Direction
Developer: Ali Kamberoğlu
Overview: Go Beyond the Limits of Standard ADX
The ORION Trend Engine (TE) is a complete command center designed to analyze not just the existence of a market trend, but also its strength, direction, acceleration, and potential within a single, integrated system. It was developed to solve the chronic problems of the classic ADX indicator, such as lag, noise, and difficulty in interpretation.
This tool combines two separate panels into one intelligent engine:
Trend Strength Panel: Shows when the market is entering a strong trend or moving sideways.
Directional Bias Oscillator Panel: Clearly visualizes which direction (Buy/Sell) is dominating the trend.
ORION TE provides an analytical framework not just to know if there is a trend, but to decide whether to enter it, when to stay in it, and when to exit.
The ORION Advantage: Why It's Different
1. The Smart Trend Engine (Adaptive KAMA Integration):
The standard ADX uses a slow-reacting average. ORION TE revolutionizes this by offering the option to use the Adaptive KAMA engine in the ADX calculation, which adapts to market conditions. What does this mean?
Faster Response: When a strong trend begins, KAMA speeds up, notifying you of the trend's start much earlier.
Noise Filter: When the market is choppy and indecisive, KAMA slows down, protecting you from countless false "trend start" signals.
2. The Directional Compass (Normalized DI Oscillator):
Interpreting DI+ and DI- lines can be complex. ORION TE solves this problem with the DI Oscillator:
Clear Signals: This oscillator shows the net dominance between Buyers (positive values) and Sellers (negative values).
ADX Filter: The oscillator only generates signals when there is significant trend strength in the market (when ADX is above a certain threshold). This completely eliminates meaningless crossovers in sideways markets.
Strength Indicator: The histogram bars change color based on the trend's strength. Bright colors (Lime/Red) indicate a strong trend, while dark colors (Green/Maroon) signify a weakening trend.
3. Multi-Stage Trend Analysis (Dynamic Levels):
Saying "there is a trend" is not enough. ORION TE analyzes the trend's strength across four different levels:
No Trend (Gray): No direction in the market.
Trend Potential (Yellow): A trend is starting to form, pay attention.
Strategic Trend (Blue): The main trend with sufficient strength for trading.
Strong & Peak Trends: Zones where the trend is at its strongest, but may also show signs of exhaustion.
High-Probability Trading Strategies:
Strongest BUY Signal (Trend Ignition):
The ADX line turns from Yellow to Blue (Strategic Trend Begins).
Simultaneously, the DI Oscillator histogram is in positive territory and crosses above its white signal line.
This is an A+ grade entry opportunity, confirming both trend strength and buyer momentum.
Strongest SELL Signal (Trend Ignition):
The ADX line turns Blue.
Simultaneously, the DI Oscillator histogram is in negative territory and crosses below its white signal line.
This is a strong downtrend initiation signal, as sellers take control.
Important Visual Notice
The Signal line (white) and some level lines in the indicator are designed for optimal visibility on dark-themed charts.
If you are using a light-themed (white) chart background, these white elements may not be visible. For the best experience, you have two options:
Recommended: Set your chart background to a dark color in TradingView's settings.
Alternative: Go into the indicator settings, and under "5. Visual Settings," change the color of the DI Oscillator (Signal) line and other white levels to a darker color that contrasts with your chart.

Trading in financial markets involves high risk, and past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Please always apply your own risk management strategies.
ORION Volume Engine by Ali_KamberogluORION Volume Engine by Ali_Kamberoglu | Look Beyond Volume, Track the "Smart Money"
Developer: Ali Kamberoğlu
Overview: What Price Doesn't Say, Volume Reveals
The ORION Volume Engine (VE) is a sophisticated market force analysis center that steps in where standard volume indicators fall short. This tool takes the classic On-Balance Volume (OBV) indicator and transforms it into an intelligent analysis engine that filters market noise, detects "explosions" in volume, and, most importantly, automatically uncovers the critical divergences between price and volume.
ORION VE tells you not just where the volume is flowing, but also when that flow might be signaling an impending trend reversal.
The ORION Advantage: Why It's Different
The power of ORION VE comes from three intelligent layers that turn the standard OBV into an information hub:
Layer 1 - The Adaptive Signal Line (Smart KAMA Integration):
The raw data of OBV can be choppy and misleading. ORION VE uses the Adaptive KAMA engine to clean this noise, adapting to market conditions. When the market is flowing in a strong trend, KAMA speeds up to keep you in the trend. When the market is indecisive and sideways, it slows down, protecting you from early or false signals. This provides a revolutionary level of clarity in OBV analysis.
Layer 2 - Volume Volatility (Bollinger Bands on OBV):
This unique feature offers the option to draw Bollinger Bands not on the price, but directly on the OBV itself. What does this mean? You can now see when not just the price, but the volume flow itself is "squeezing" and when it's ready to "explode." A breakout of the OBV line from its own Bollinger Band is a powerful signal of an extraordinary increase in volume flow in that direction, confirming the current trend.
Layer 3 - The Game-Changing Feature: Fully Automatic Volume Divergence Engine
One of the most powerful signals heralding the end of a trend is a volume divergence. ORION VE finds these priceless signals for you, automatically:
Bullish Divergence 🐂: Is the price falling to new lows while the OBV (volume) refuses to fall, making higher lows? This is the clearest sign that selling pressure is exhausted and "smart money" is quietly accumulating. You are instantly alerted with a "Bull" label on your chart.
Bearish Divergence 🐻: Is the price hitting record highs, but the OBV is not supporting this rise with sufficient volume and is making lower highs? This is a signal that the power behind the trend is fading and a sharp decline may be imminent. The "Bear" label prepares you to protect your position or take profits.
High-Probability Trading Strategies:
Strongest BUY Signal:
A Bullish Divergence appears on the chart with a "Bull" label.
The OBV line crosses above its orange Adaptive KAMA signal line.
This is an A+ grade buying opportunity, indicating that smart money is stepping in and momentum is starting.
Strongest SELL Signal:
A Bearish Divergence appears on the chart with a "Bear" label.
The OBV line crosses below its orange Adaptive KAMA signal line.
This is a high-probability shorting opportunity, indicating that the uptrend is not supported by volume and momentum is shifting to the sellers.

DarkPool's RSi DarkPool's RSi is an enhanced momentum oscillator designed to automatically detect structural discrepancies between price action and the Relative Strength Index. While retaining the standard RSI visualization, this script overlays advanced divergence recognition logic to identify potential trend reversals.
The tool identifies pivot points in real-time and compares recent peaks and valleys against historical data. When the momentum of the RSI contradicts the direction of price action, the indicator highlights these events using dynamic trendlines, shape markers, and background coloring. A built-in dashboard table provides an immediate status check of active divergence signals.
Key Features
Automated Divergence Detection: Automatically spots both Regular Bullish and Regular Bearish divergences based on pivot lookback settings.
Dynamic Visuals: Draws physical lines connecting RSI peaks or troughs to visualize the divergence angle, alongside triangle markers indicating the signal direction.
Active Status Dashboard: A data table located on the chart monitors the current state of the market, flagging signals as "Active" when detected.
Standard RSI Overlay: Includes standard Overbought (70) and Oversold (30) reference lines for traditional momentum trading.
How to Use
1. Reading the Standard RSI The black line represents the Relative Strength Index.
Overbought (Above 70): Suggests the asset may be overvalued and due for a pullback.
Oversold (Below 30): Suggests the asset may be undervalued and due for a bounce.
Midline (50): Acts as a trend filter; values above 50 indicate bullish momentum, while values below 50 indicate bearish momentum.
2. Trading Divergences The primary function of this tool is to identify reversal setups.
Bullish Divergence (Green Triangle/Line): Occurs when Price makes a Lower Low, but the RSI makes a Higher Low. This indicates that selling momentum is exhausting and a price increase may follow.
Bearish Divergence (Red Triangle/Line): Occurs when Price makes a Higher High, but the RSI makes a Lower High. This indicates that buying momentum is fading and a price decrease may follow.
3. Visual Aids
Lines: The script draws solid lines directly on the RSI pane connecting the relevant pivot points to confirm the divergence slope.
Background Color: When a divergence is detected, the background of the indicator pane will highlight briefly (Green for Bullish, Red for Bearish) to draw attention to the new signal.
4. The Dashboard A small table in the bottom right corner tracks the status of the signals.
Status: ACTIVE: A divergence has been detected within the last 10 bars.
Status: None: No recent divergence patterns have been identified.

ORION Fast Momentum Engine by Ali_KamberogluORION Fast Momentum Engine by Ali_Kamberoglu | Reinventing RSI: Adaptive Signals & Auto Divergences
Developer: Ali Kamberoğlu
Overview: Escape the Noise of Standard RSI
The ORION Fast Momentum Engine (FME) is an all-in-one analytical powerhouse that takes the classic RSI indicator and redesigns it for 21st-century market conditions. It is engineered to eliminate the biggest problems of the standard RSI: false signals, lag, and noise. This tool not only shows you the momentum but also automatically reveals its character, its volatility, and, most importantly, when it's diverging from the price.
ORION FME is not just another oscillator; it's an intelligent analysis engine built into the RSI.
The ORION Advantage: Why It's Different
The power of ORION FME comes from three revolutionary layers it adds to the standard RSI:
Layer 1 - The Smart Signal Line (Adaptive KAMA Integration):
Fixed-period moving averages are a thing of the past. ORION FME uses the Adaptive KAMA engine as its signal line, which adjusts to market conditions. When the market is trending, it speeds up to give you early signals. When the market is choppy and sideways, it slows down, protecting you from countless false trades (whipsaws). No more "blind" signal lines that behave the same way in every condition.
Layer 2 - Momentum Volatility (Bollinger Bands on RSI):
This is a feature you won't find anywhere else. ORION FME offers the option to draw Bollinger Bands not on the price, but directly on the RSI itself. What does this mean? You can now see when not just the price, but the momentum itself is "squeezing" and ready for a breakout. When the RSI breaks out of its own Bollinger Bands, it's a sign of an extraordinary surge in momentum.
Layer 3 - The Game-Changing Feature: Fully Automatic Divergence Engine
Put an end to the tedious task of hunting for divergences! ORION FME includes the powerful divergence engine that has become a signature of the ORION series.
Bullish Divergence 🐂: Is the price making lower lows while the RSI is making higher lows? ORION FME detects this instantly and marks it with a "Bull" label on your chart, signaling a potential bottom and a rally.
Bearish Divergence 🐻: Is the price renewing its highs while the RSI's momentum is fading? This is the clearest sign that the rally is losing its strength. The "Bear" label warns you in advance of a potential top and decline.
High-Probability Trading Strategies:
Strongest BUY Signal:
A Bullish Divergence appears on the chart with a "Bull" label.
The RSI turns up from the oversold zone (below 30) and crosses above its adaptive KAMA signal line.
This is an A+ grade, multi-confirmation buying opportunity.
Strongest SELL Signal:
A Bearish Divergence appears on the chart with a "Bear" label.
The RSI turns down from the overbought zone (above 70) and crosses below its adaptive KAMA signal line.
This is a high-probability shorting opportunity.

ORION Energy Engine by Ali_KamberogluORION Energy Engine by Ali_Kamberoglu | Turn the Market's "Quiet" Moments into Explosive Moves
Developer: Ali Kamberoğlu
Overview: Go Beyond Momentum, Measure the Energy
The ORION Energy Engine is not an ordinary momentum indicator. It is a sophisticated energy measurement system designed to detect the seemingly calm "accumulation" periods in the market and to anticipate the explosive price movements that follow. By clearly distinguishing between moments when the market is coiling and storing energy (Potential Energy) and moments when it releases that energy (Kinetic Energy), it provides you with a flawless roadmap for the market's next big move.
Think of the ORION Energy Engine as a compressed spring; it shows you not only when the spring is being compressed, but also when and how powerfully it is about to be released.
The ORION Advantage: Why It's Different
The power of ORION comes from its integrated system that analyzes market energy in three distinct dimensions:
Layer 1 - Potential Energy Detection (The Squeeze Engine):
Before every major market move, there is a period of silence and indecision. ORION automatically detects these "squeeze" moments using Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels. The dots on the zero line signal that the market is building up energy for its next move.
Purple Dot: Standard energy accumulation.
White Dot: A more reliable accumulation, confirmed by volume.
Yellow Dot: "Super Squeeze," occurring at historically low levels of volatility. This is a sign that the upcoming move could be much more violent.
Layer 2 - Kinetic Energy Measurement (The Four-Stage Momentum Histogram):
When the energy is released, ORION measures the power and acceleration of this movement. The histogram provides an instant status report with four different colors, showing not just the direction but also whether the trend is accelerating or decelerating:
Lime Green: A strengthening, accelerating uptrend.
Dark Green: A weakening, decelerating uptrend (a signal to take profit or be cautious).
Red: A strengthening, accelerating downtrend.
Maroon: A weakening, decelerating downtrend (the end of the decline may be near).
Layer 3 - Adaptive Energy Levels (Statistical Breakout Zones):
The energy dynamics of every instrument are different. ORION plots dynamic "Optimum" and "Maximum" energy levels for momentum based on statistical standard deviation calculations from past price action. These levels are objective reference points that show when a trend is becoming overextended and the probability of a correction or reversal is increasing.
The Game-Changing Feature: Automatic Energy Release Alert
Your most valuable asset is time. The ORION Energy Engine eliminates the need to constantly monitor the market. With its built-in alert system, it notifies you the very first moment an energy accumulation (Squeeze) ends and the move begins. This gives you an invaluable entry advantage, ensuring you never miss the start of a potential breakout.
High-Probability Trading Strategies:
Strongest BUY Signal (Super Breakout Setup):
Yellow (Super Squeeze) or White (Volume Squeeze) dots appear on the zero line.
The dots disappear, and the "Squeeze Released" alert is triggered.
The first bar on the alert generates a strong Lime Green momentum histogram.
This is an A+ grade buying opportunity where stored energy has converted into an upward explosion. Targets are the upper Adaptive Levels.
Strongest SELL Signal (Energy Discharge Setup):
An accumulation (preferably Yellow or White dots) is observed on the zero line.
The squeeze ends, and the alert is triggered.
The first bar on the alert generates a strong Red negative momentum histogram.
This is a high-probability shorting opportunity where energy is being released to the downside. Targets are the lower Adaptive Levels.

ORION LTME by Ali_KamberogluORION Long-Term Momentum Engine by Ali_Kamberoglu | Silence the Noise, Hear the Real Signals
Developer: Ali Kamberoğlu
Overview: Go Beyond the Limits of Standard Indicators
The ORION Long-Term Momentum Engine is an all-in-one analytical powerhouse designed to filter market noise with surgical precision, eliminate signal lag, and, most importantly, automatically detect trend reversals that are impossible to see with the naked eye. This tool combines three different advanced mathematical engines (Chebyshev, Zero-Lag Gaussian, and Adaptive KAMA) into a single hybrid structure, offering a clarity and analytical depth that ordinary oscillators could never provide. ORION shows you not just what is happening, but what is about to happen.
The ORION Advantage: Why It's Different
The power of ORION comes from its three-layer filtering system, which works in perfect harmony:
Layer 1 - The Noise Shield (Chebyshev Filter):
Price action is chaotic. The Chebyshev filter is your first line of defense, cleaning out the meaningless noise (sudden spikes, minor fluctuations) from this chaos. The result? Smoother, more readable, and reliable baseline momentum data that won't mislead you.
Layer 2 - The Lag Enemy (Zero-Lag Gaussian Filter):
Cleaning noise is important, but a lagging signal is unacceptable. The Zero-Lag filter ensures that the cleaned signal reaches you almost in real-time with market movements. No more getting signals after the opportunities have passed. Speed and precision, combined.
Layer 3 - The Smart Navigation System (Adaptive KAMA Filter):
Not all market conditions are the same. ORION knows this. The Adaptive KAMA filter analyzes the current character of the market. If there's a strong trend, it speeds up to keep you in the move. If the market is choppy and indecisive, it slows down, protecting you from the loss-making whipsaw market.
The Game-Changing Feature: Automatic Divergence Engine
ORION's most valuable feature is its fully automatic divergence detection system, which alerts you to trend reversals before anyone else.
Bullish Divergence 🐂: Is the price making lower lows while ORION's momentum is making higher lows? This is the clearest sign that the downtrend is losing power and a strong rally is imminent. You are instantly alerted with a "Bull" label on your chart.
Bearish Divergence 🐻: Is the price hitting record highs while ORION's momentum is losing steam? This signals that the rally is nearing its end and a sharp decline could be starting. The "Bear" label prepares you to protect your position or take profits.
This feature alone reduces hours of manual analysis to seconds and gives you an invaluable strategic advantage.
Indicator Components & Strategies
🔵 ORION Momentum (Blue Line): The heart of the engine. Your fast, precise, and primary momentum line.
🟠 Signal Line (Orange Line): The confirmation mechanism. A smoother reference that validates the movements of the blue line.
💎 Adaptive KAMA (Turquoise Line): Your dynamic filter that keeps its finger on the pulse of the market.
High-Probability Trading Strategies:
Strongest BUY Signal:
A "Bull" label appears on the chart.
The blue line crosses above the orange line in the oversold zone (below the 20 level).
This is an A+ grade buying opportunity, combining a momentum reversal with an oversold market.
Strongest SELL Signal:
A "Bear" label appears on the chart.
The blue line crosses below the orange line in the overbought zone (above the 80 level).
This is a high-probability shorting opportunity, combining a loss of momentum with an overextended market.

OBV WaveTrend FlowOBV WaveTrend Pressure — A Volume-Powered Momentum Oscillator
OBV WaveTrend Pressure combines Hybrid OBV (volume × price delta) with the classic LazyBear WaveTrend framework to create a volume-weighted momentum oscillator that highlights real buying/selling pressure before price reacts.
While standard WaveTrend uses price averages alone, this tool feeds a cumulative hybrid OBV source into WT1/WT2, producing a much more sensitive, order-flow-aware momentum signal. The result is a clean, MACD-style histogram built from the slope of WT1, revealing when volume-backed momentum flips from bullish to bearish and vice-versa.
This is designed as a companion to volatility tools (e.g., TTM Squeeze, SQZMOM) and standard price-based WaveTrend indicators.
⸻
Features
1. Hybrid OBV Source (Vol × ΔPrice)
Captures true directional volume pressure, giving earlier and more reliable inflection points than price-based oscillators.
2. WaveTrend Applied to OBV
Applies LazyBear’s WT logic to a volume-driven source:
• WT1 (fast)
• WT2 (signal)
• Optional slope-aware color themes
3. MACD-Style Pressure Histogram
Shows momentum contraction/expansion clearly:
• Bright green/blue → Strong bull pressure
• Pale green/blue → Weakening bull
• Bright red → Strong bear pressure
• Pale red → Weakening bear
4. Dynamic OB/OS Bands
Adaptive overbought/oversold computed from:
• Rolling mean of WT1
• Rolling standard deviation
Helps identify exhaustion relative to market conditions, not fixed numbers.
5. Zero-Line Momentum Flips (with alerts)
Alerts fire when:
• WT1 slope crosses above zero → Bull momentum shift
• WT1 slope crosses below zero → Bear momentum shift
6. Optional Price Bar Coloring
Mirror the histogram state onto price bars for fast visual bias confirmation.
⸻
How to Use
Bullish Signals
• Histogram flips positive
• WT1 rising
• WT1 or WT2 near dynamic oversold zone
• Useful for positioning early in momentum cycles
Bearish Signals
• Histogram flips negative
• WT1 falling
• WT1 or WT2 near dynamic overbought zone
Best Applications
• Trend continuation entries
• Confirming TTM squeeze setups
• Early identification of pressure reversals
• Pairing with price-based WaveTrend for dual confirmation
⸻
Why It Works
WaveTrend is already one of the most reliable oscillators for structure and reversals — but this version feeds it volume pressure instead of price.
Volume often shifts before candles do, making this a leading indicator in many cases.
UM Nadaraya-Watson OscillatorDescription
This is a different take on the Nadaraya-Watson Estimator from both Jdhorty and LuxAlgo. Both great scripts, I encourage everyone to check them out. Think of this script as a measure of trend direction, direction change, and trend acceleration or deceleration. It is not a Moving Average, but you could think of it as loosely as an intelligent adaptive regression curve with the focus on trend direction. The Gaussian calculations prefer and add more weight to the most recent bars. The end result is the oscillator is more responsive with less lag and less prone to pure price noise.
How it Works
The indicator was added to the chart twice; once with an MA, once without. The oscillator indicates trend change by crossing up through the zero line or down through the zero line. Once the indicator turns positive, we are in a positive trend until it crosses below zero and then the trend turns negative. I implemented a Moving Average overlay for additional signal determination; if the configured MA (EMA, SMA, WMA, or Nadaraya-Watson Estimator) trends higher, it is green. When trending down, it is red. The indicator also changes the color of the price bars; when the indicator below zero and red, the price bars are red. When the indicator is above zero and green, the price bars are green.
I marked up the chart and indicator to identify LONG, SHORT, and divergences between price and oscillator.
Default Settings
The default settings are 16 for Bandwidth and a WMA with 110. This is shown in the chart example. There directional arrows, but they are off by default. The Price bars are colored green or red to match the oscillator and the bar coloring is on by default.
All settings are user-configurable including bandwidth, MA type, MA length, bar coloring, and arrows.
Suggested Settings and uses
I personally like the 30 min chart with a bandwidth of 16 and a WMA of 110. The bandwidth 8 and 8 period EMA or WMA also work well on 6 hour and daily charts. Add this to your chart arsenal and use your favorite indicators for confirmation. This indicator works well on the 30 minute chart for inverse ETFs as well (SQQQ, SOXS, TZA). Also, the oscillator is good for identifying divergences between price and and indicator. (see chart for illustration)
Experiment with settings and adapt them to your trading style.
Alerts
If you right click the indicator, and select add alert, I have configured 4 standard alerts: A bullish cross above zero, A bearish cross below zero, An MA bullish turned up to trend higher, (green), and an MA bearish turned down to trend lower (red).

Dimensional Resonance ProtocolDimensional Resonance Protocol
🌀 CORE INNOVATION: PHASE SPACE RECONSTRUCTION & EMERGENCE DETECTION
The Dimensional Resonance Protocol represents a paradigm shift from traditional technical analysis to complexity science. Rather than measuring price levels or indicator crossovers, DRP reconstructs the hidden attractor governing market dynamics using Takens' embedding theorem, then detects emergence —the rare moments when multiple dimensions of market behavior spontaneously synchronize into coherent, predictable states.
The Complexity Hypothesis:
Markets are not simple oscillators or random walks—they are complex adaptive systems existing in high-dimensional phase space. Traditional indicators see only shadows (one-dimensional projections) of this higher-dimensional reality. DRP reconstructs the full phase space using time-delay embedding, revealing the true structure of market dynamics.
Takens' Embedding Theorem (1981):
A profound mathematical result from dynamical systems theory: Given a time series from a complex system, we can reconstruct its full phase space by creating delayed copies of the observation.
Mathematical Foundation:
From single observable x(t), create embedding vectors:
X(t) =
Where:
• d = Embedding dimension (default 5)
• τ = Time delay (default 3 bars)
• x(t) = Price or return at time t
Key Insight: If d ≥ 2D+1 (where D is the true attractor dimension), this embedding is topologically equivalent to the actual system dynamics. We've reconstructed the hidden attractor from a single price series.
Why This Matters:
Markets appear random in one dimension (price chart). But in reconstructed phase space, structure emerges—attractors, limit cycles, strange attractors. When we identify these structures, we can detect:
• Stable regions : Predictable behavior (trade opportunities)
• Chaotic regions : Unpredictable behavior (avoid trading)
• Critical transitions : Phase changes between regimes
Phase Space Magnitude Calculation:
phase_magnitude = sqrt(Σ ² for i = 0 to d-1)
This measures the "energy" or "momentum" of the market trajectory through phase space. High magnitude = strong directional move. Low magnitude = consolidation.
📊 RECURRENCE QUANTIFICATION ANALYSIS (RQA)
Once phase space is reconstructed, we analyze its recurrence structure —when does the system return near previous states?
Recurrence Plot Foundation:
A recurrence occurs when two phase space points are closer than threshold ε:
R(i,j) = 1 if ||X(i) - X(j)|| < ε, else 0
This creates a binary matrix showing when the system revisits similar states.
Key RQA Metrics:
1. Recurrence Rate (RR):
RR = (Number of recurrent points) / (Total possible pairs)
• RR near 0: System never repeats (highly stochastic)
• RR = 0.1-0.3: Moderate recurrence (tradeable patterns)
• RR > 0.5: System stuck in attractor (ranging market)
• RR near 1: System frozen (no dynamics)
Interpretation: Moderate recurrence is optimal —patterns exist but market isn't stuck.
2. Determinism (DET):
Measures what fraction of recurrences form diagonal structures in the recurrence plot. Diagonals indicate deterministic evolution (trajectory follows predictable paths).
DET = (Recurrence points on diagonals) / (Total recurrence points)
• DET < 0.3: Random dynamics
• DET = 0.3-0.7: Moderate determinism (patterns with noise)
• DET > 0.7: Strong determinism (technical patterns reliable)
Trading Implication: Signals are prioritized when DET > 0.3 (deterministic state) and RR is moderate (not stuck).
Threshold Selection (ε):
Default ε = 0.10 × std_dev means two states are "recurrent" if within 10% of a standard deviation. This is tight enough to require genuine similarity but loose enough to find patterns.
🔬 PERMUTATION ENTROPY: COMPLEXITY MEASUREMENT
Permutation entropy measures the complexity of a time series by analyzing the distribution of ordinal patterns.
Algorithm (Bandt & Pompe, 2002):
1. Take overlapping windows of length n (default n=4)
2. For each window, record the rank order pattern
Example: → pattern (ranks from lowest to highest)
3. Count frequency of each possible pattern
4. Calculate Shannon entropy of pattern distribution
Mathematical Formula:
H_perm = -Σ p(π) · ln(p(π))
Where π ranges over all n! possible permutations, p(π) is the probability of pattern π.
Normalized to :
H_norm = H_perm / ln(n!)
Interpretation:
• H < 0.3 : Very ordered, crystalline structure (strong trending)
• H = 0.3-0.5 : Ordered regime (tradeable with patterns)
• H = 0.5-0.7 : Moderate complexity (mixed conditions)
• H = 0.7-0.85 : Complex dynamics (challenging to trade)
• H > 0.85 : Maximum entropy (nearly random, avoid)
Entropy Regime Classification:
DRP classifies markets into five entropy regimes:
• CRYSTALLINE (H < 0.3): Maximum order, persistent trends
• ORDERED (H < 0.5): Clear patterns, momentum strategies work
• MODERATE (H < 0.7): Mixed dynamics, adaptive required
• COMPLEX (H < 0.85): High entropy, mean reversion better
• CHAOTIC (H ≥ 0.85): Near-random, minimize trading
Why Permutation Entropy?
Unlike traditional entropy methods requiring binning continuous data (losing information), permutation entropy:
• Works directly on time series
• Robust to monotonic transformations
• Computationally efficient
• Captures temporal structure, not just distribution
• Immune to outliers (uses ranks, not values)
⚡ LYAPUNOV EXPONENT: CHAOS vs STABILITY
The Lyapunov exponent λ measures sensitivity to initial conditions —the hallmark of chaos.
Physical Meaning:
Two trajectories starting infinitely close will diverge at exponential rate e^(λt):
Distance(t) ≈ Distance(0) × e^(λt)
Interpretation:
• λ > 0 : Positive Lyapunov exponent = CHAOS
- Small errors grow exponentially
- Long-term prediction impossible
- System is sensitive, unpredictable
- AVOID TRADING
• λ ≈ 0 : Near-zero = CRITICAL STATE
- Edge of chaos
- Transition zone between order and disorder
- Moderate predictability
- PROCEED WITH CAUTION
• λ < 0 : Negative Lyapunov exponent = STABLE
- Small errors decay
- Trajectories converge
- System is predictable
- OPTIMAL FOR TRADING
Estimation Method:
DRP estimates λ by tracking how quickly nearby states diverge over a rolling window (default 20 bars):
For each bar i in window:
δ₀ = |x - x | (initial separation)
δ₁ = |x - x | (previous separation)
if δ₁ > 0:
ratio = δ₀ / δ₁
log_ratios += ln(ratio)
λ ≈ average(log_ratios)
Stability Classification:
• STABLE : λ < 0 (negative growth rate)
• CRITICAL : |λ| < 0.1 (near neutral)
• CHAOTIC : λ > 0.2 (strong positive growth)
Signal Filtering:
By default, NEXUS requires λ < 0 (stable regime) for signal confirmation. This filters out trades during chaotic periods when technical patterns break down.
📐 HIGUCHI FRACTAL DIMENSION
Fractal dimension measures self-similarity and complexity of the price trajectory.
Theoretical Background:
A curve's fractal dimension D ranges from 1 (smooth line) to 2 (space-filling curve):
• D ≈ 1.0 : Smooth, persistent trending
• D ≈ 1.5 : Random walk (Brownian motion)
• D ≈ 2.0 : Highly irregular, space-filling
Higuchi Method (1988):
For a time series of length N, construct k different curves by taking every k-th point:
L(k) = (1/k) × Σ|x - x | × (N-1)/(⌊(N-m)/k⌋ × k)
For different values of k (1 to k_max), calculate L(k). The fractal dimension is the slope of log(L(k)) vs log(1/k):
D = slope of log(L) vs log(1/k)
Market Interpretation:
• D < 1.35 : Strong trending, persistent (Hurst > 0.5)
- TRENDING regime
- Momentum strategies favored
- Breakouts likely to continue
• D = 1.35-1.45 : Moderate persistence
- PERSISTENT regime
- Trend-following with caution
- Patterns have meaning
• D = 1.45-1.55 : Random walk territory
- RANDOM regime
- Efficiency hypothesis holds
- Technical analysis least reliable
• D = 1.55-1.65 : Anti-persistent (mean-reverting)
- ANTI-PERSISTENT regime
- Oscillator strategies work
- Overbought/oversold meaningful
• D > 1.65 : Highly complex, choppy
- COMPLEX regime
- Avoid directional bets
- Wait for regime change
Signal Filtering:
Resonance signals (secondary signal type) require D < 1.5, indicating trending or persistent dynamics where momentum has meaning.
🔗 TRANSFER ENTROPY: CAUSAL INFORMATION FLOW
Transfer entropy measures directed causal influence between time series—not just correlation, but actual information transfer.
Schreiber's Definition (2000):
Transfer entropy from X to Y measures how much knowing X's past reduces uncertainty about Y's future:
TE(X→Y) = H(Y_future | Y_past) - H(Y_future | Y_past, X_past)
Where H is Shannon entropy.
Key Properties:
1. Directional : TE(X→Y) ≠ TE(Y→X) in general
2. Non-linear : Detects complex causal relationships
3. Model-free : No assumptions about functional form
4. Lag-independent : Captures delayed causal effects
Three Causal Flows Measured:
1. Volume → Price (TE_V→P):
Measures how much volume patterns predict price changes.
• TE > 0 : Volume provides predictive information about price
- Institutional participation driving moves
- Volume confirms direction
- High reliability
• TE ≈ 0 : No causal flow (weak volume/price relationship)
- Volume uninformative
- Caution on signals
• TE < 0 (rare): Suggests price leading volume
- Potentially manipulated or thin market
2. Volatility → Momentum (TE_σ→M):
Does volatility expansion predict momentum changes?
• Positive TE : Volatility precedes momentum shifts
- Breakout dynamics
- Regime transitions
3. Structure → Price (TE_S→P):
Do support/resistance patterns causally influence price?
• Positive TE : Structural levels have causal impact
- Technical levels matter
- Market respects structure
Net Causal Flow:
Net_Flow = TE_V→P + 0.5·TE_σ→M + TE_S→P
• Net > +0.1 : Bullish causal structure
• Net < -0.1 : Bearish causal structure
• |Net| < 0.1 : Neutral/unclear causation
Causal Gate:
For signal confirmation, NEXUS requires:
• Buy signals : TE_V→P > 0 AND Net_Flow > 0.05
• Sell signals : TE_V→P > 0 AND Net_Flow < -0.05
This ensures volume is actually driving price (causal support exists), not just correlated noise.
Implementation Note:
Computing true transfer entropy requires discretizing continuous data into bins (default 6 bins) and estimating joint probability distributions. NEXUS uses a hybrid approach combining TE theory with autocorrelation structure and lagged cross-correlation to approximate information transfer in computationally efficient manner.
🌊 HILBERT PHASE COHERENCE
Phase coherence measures synchronization across market dimensions using Hilbert transform analysis.
Hilbert Transform Theory:
For a signal x(t), the Hilbert transform H (t) creates an analytic signal:
z(t) = x(t) + i·H (t) = A(t)·e^(iφ(t))
Where:
• A(t) = Instantaneous amplitude
• φ(t) = Instantaneous phase
Instantaneous Phase:
φ(t) = arctan(H (t) / x(t))
The phase represents where the signal is in its natural cycle—analogous to position on a unit circle.
Four Dimensions Analyzed:
1. Momentum Phase : Phase of price rate-of-change
2. Volume Phase : Phase of volume intensity
3. Volatility Phase : Phase of ATR cycles
4. Structure Phase : Phase of position within range
Phase Locking Value (PLV):
For two signals with phases φ₁(t) and φ₂(t), PLV measures phase synchronization:
PLV = |⟨e^(i(φ₁(t) - φ₂(t)))⟩|
Where ⟨·⟩ is time average over window.
Interpretation:
• PLV = 0 : Completely random phase relationship (no synchronization)
• PLV = 0.5 : Moderate phase locking
• PLV = 1 : Perfect synchronization (phases locked)
Pairwise PLV Calculations:
• PLV_momentum-volume : Are momentum and volume cycles synchronized?
• PLV_momentum-structure : Are momentum cycles aligned with structure?
• PLV_volume-structure : Are volume and structural patterns in phase?
Overall Phase Coherence:
Coherence = (PLV_mom-vol + PLV_mom-struct + PLV_vol-struct) / 3
Signal Confirmation:
Emergence signals require coherence ≥ threshold (default 0.70):
• Below 0.70: Dimensions not synchronized, no coherent market state
• Above 0.70: Dimensions in phase, coherent behavior emerging
Coherence Direction:
The summed phase angles indicate whether synchronized dimensions point bullish or bearish:
Direction = sin(φ_momentum) + 0.5·sin(φ_volume) + 0.5·sin(φ_structure)
• Direction > 0 : Phases pointing upward (bullish synchronization)
• Direction < 0 : Phases pointing downward (bearish synchronization)
🌀 EMERGENCE SCORE: MULTI-DIMENSIONAL ALIGNMENT
The emergence score aggregates all complexity metrics into a single 0-1 value representing market coherence.
Eight Components with Weights:
1. Phase Coherence (20%):
Direct contribution: coherence × 0.20
Measures dimensional synchronization.
2. Entropy Regime (15%):
Contribution: (0.6 - H_perm) / 0.6 × 0.15 if H < 0.6, else 0
Rewards low entropy (ordered, predictable states).
3. Lyapunov Stability (12%):
• λ < 0 (stable): +0.12
• |λ| < 0.1 (critical): +0.08
• λ > 0.2 (chaotic): +0.0
Requires stable, predictable dynamics.
4. Fractal Dimension Trending (12%):
Contribution: (1.45 - D) / 0.45 × 0.12 if D < 1.45, else 0
Rewards trending fractal structure (D < 1.45).
5. Dimensional Resonance (12%):
Contribution: |dimensional_resonance| × 0.12
Measures alignment across momentum, volume, structure, volatility dimensions.
6. Causal Flow Strength (9%):
Contribution: |net_causal_flow| × 0.09
Rewards strong causal relationships.
7. Phase Space Embedding (10%):
Contribution: min(|phase_magnitude_norm|, 3.0) / 3.0 × 0.10 if |magnitude| > 1.0
Rewards strong trajectory in reconstructed phase space.
8. Recurrence Quality (10%):
Contribution: determinism × 0.10 if DET > 0.3 AND 0.1 < RR < 0.8
Rewards deterministic patterns with moderate recurrence.
Total Emergence Score:
E = Σ(components) ∈
Capped at 1.0 maximum.
Emergence Direction:
Separate calculation determining bullish vs bearish:
• Dimensional resonance sign
• Net causal flow sign
• Phase magnitude correlation with momentum
Signal Threshold:
Default emergence_threshold = 0.75 means 75% of maximum possible emergence score required to trigger signals.
Why Emergence Matters:
Traditional indicators measure single dimensions. Emergence detects self-organization —when multiple independent dimensions spontaneously align. This is the market equivalent of a phase transition in physics, where microscopic chaos gives way to macroscopic order.
These are the highest-probability trade opportunities because the entire system is resonating in the same direction.
🎯 SIGNAL GENERATION: EMERGENCE vs RESONANCE
DRP generates two tiers of signals with different requirements:
TIER 1: EMERGENCE SIGNALS (Primary)
Requirements:
1. Emergence score ≥ threshold (default 0.75)
2. Phase coherence ≥ threshold (default 0.70)
3. Emergence direction > 0.2 (bullish) or < -0.2 (bearish)
4. Causal gate passed (if enabled): TE_V→P > 0 and net_flow confirms direction
5. Stability zone (if enabled): λ < 0 or |λ| < 0.1
6. Price confirmation: Close > open (bulls) or close < open (bears)
7. Cooldown satisfied: bars_since_signal ≥ cooldown_period
EMERGENCE BUY:
• All above conditions met with bullish direction
• Market has achieved coherent bullish state
• Multiple dimensions synchronized upward
EMERGENCE SELL:
• All above conditions met with bearish direction
• Market has achieved coherent bearish state
• Multiple dimensions synchronized downward
Premium Emergence:
When signal_quality (emergence_score × phase_coherence) > 0.7:
• Displayed as ★ star symbol
• Highest conviction trades
• Maximum dimensional alignment
Standard Emergence:
When signal_quality 0.5-0.7:
• Displayed as ◆ diamond symbol
• Strong signals but not perfect alignment
TIER 2: RESONANCE SIGNALS (Secondary)
Requirements:
1. Dimensional resonance > +0.6 (bullish) or < -0.6 (bearish)
2. Fractal dimension < 1.5 (trending/persistent regime)
3. Price confirmation matches direction
4. NOT in chaotic regime (λ < 0.2)
5. Cooldown satisfied
6. NO emergence signal firing (resonance is fallback)
RESONANCE BUY:
• Dimensional alignment without full emergence
• Trending fractal structure
• Moderate conviction
RESONANCE SELL:
• Dimensional alignment without full emergence
• Bearish resonance with trending structure
• Moderate conviction
Displayed as small ▲/▼ triangles with transparency.
Signal Hierarchy:
IF emergence conditions met:
Fire EMERGENCE signal (★ or ◆)
ELSE IF resonance conditions met:
Fire RESONANCE signal (▲ or ▼)
ELSE:
No signal
Cooldown System:
After any signal fires, cooldown_period (default 5 bars) must elapse before next signal. This prevents signal clustering during persistent conditions.
Cooldown tracks using bar_index:
bars_since_signal = current_bar_index - last_signal_bar_index
cooldown_ok = bars_since_signal >= cooldown_period
🎨 VISUAL SYSTEM: MULTI-LAYER COMPLEXITY
DRP provides rich visual feedback across four distinct layers:
LAYER 1: COHERENCE FIELD (Background)
Colored background intensity based on phase coherence:
• No background : Coherence < 0.5 (incoherent state)
• Faint glow : Coherence 0.5-0.7 (building coherence)
• Stronger glow : Coherence > 0.7 (coherent state)
Color:
• Cyan/teal: Bullish coherence (direction > 0)
• Red/magenta: Bearish coherence (direction < 0)
• Blue: Neutral coherence (direction ≈ 0)
Transparency: 98 minus (coherence_intensity × 10), so higher coherence = more visible.
LAYER 2: STABILITY/CHAOS ZONES
Background color indicating Lyapunov regime:
• Green tint (95% transparent): λ < 0, STABLE zone
- Safe to trade
- Patterns meaningful
• Gold tint (90% transparent): |λ| < 0.1, CRITICAL zone
- Edge of chaos
- Moderate risk
• Red tint (85% transparent): λ > 0.2, CHAOTIC zone
- Avoid trading
- Unpredictable behavior
LAYER 3: DIMENSIONAL RIBBONS
Three EMAs representing dimensional structure:
• Fast ribbon : EMA(8) in cyan/teal (fast dynamics)
• Medium ribbon : EMA(21) in blue (intermediate)
• Slow ribbon : EMA(55) in red/magenta (slow dynamics)
Provides visual reference for multi-scale structure without cluttering with raw phase space data.
LAYER 4: CAUSAL FLOW LINE
A thicker line plotted at EMA(13) colored by net causal flow:
• Cyan/teal : Net_flow > +0.1 (bullish causation)
• Red/magenta : Net_flow < -0.1 (bearish causation)
• Gray : |Net_flow| < 0.1 (neutral causation)
Shows real-time direction of information flow.
EMERGENCE FLASH:
Strong background flash when emergence signals fire:
• Cyan flash for emergence buy
• Red flash for emergence sell
• 80% transparency for visibility without obscuring price

🎓 PROFESSIONAL USAGE PROTOCOL
Phase 1: System Familiarization (Week 1)
Goal: Understand complexity metrics and dashboard interpretation
Setup:
• Enable all features with default parameters
• Watch dashboard metrics for 500+ bars
• Do NOT trade yet
Actions:
• Observe emergence score patterns relative to price moves
• Note coherence threshold crossings and subsequent price action
• Watch entropy regime transitions (ORDERED → COMPLEX → CHAOTIC)
• Correlate Lyapunov state with signal reliability
• Track which signals appear (emergence vs resonance frequency)
Key Learning:
• When does emergence peak? (usually before major moves)
• What entropy regime produces best signals? (typically ORDERED or MODERATE)
• Does your instrument respect stability zones? (stable λ = better signals)
Phase 2: Parameter Optimization (Week 2)
Goal: Tune system to instrument characteristics
Requirements:
• Understand basic dashboard metrics from Phase 1
• Have 1000+ bars of history loaded
Embedding Dimension & Time Delay:
• If signals very rare: Try lower dimension (d=3-4) or shorter delay (τ=2)
• If signals too frequent: Try higher dimension (d=6-7) or longer delay (τ=4-5)
• Sweet spot: 4-8 emergence signals per 100 bars
Coherence Threshold:
• Check dashboard: What's typical coherence range?
• If coherence rarely exceeds 0.70: Lower threshold to 0.60-0.65
• If coherence often >0.80: Can raise threshold to 0.75-0.80
• Goal: Signals fire during top 20-30% of coherence values
Emergence Threshold:
• If too few signals: Lower to 0.65-0.70
• If too many signals: Raise to 0.80-0.85
• Balance with coherence threshold—both must be met
Phase 3: Signal Quality Assessment (Weeks 3-4)
Goal: Verify signals have edge via paper trading
Requirements:
• Parameters optimized per Phase 2
• 50+ signals generated
• Detailed notes on each signal
Paper Trading Protocol:
• Take EVERY emergence signal (★ and ◆)
• Optional: Take resonance signals (▲/▼) separately to compare
• Use simple exit: 2R target, 1R stop (ATR-based)
• Track: Win rate, average R-multiple, maximum consecutive losses
Quality Metrics:
• Premium emergence (★) : Should achieve >55% WR
• Standard emergence (◆) : Should achieve >50% WR
• Resonance signals : Should achieve >45% WR
• Overall : If <45% WR, system not suitable for this instrument/timeframe
Red Flags:

Phase 4: Regime Awareness (Week 5)
Goal: Understand which market conditions produce best signals
Analysis:
• Review Phase 3 trades, segment by:
- Entropy regime at signal (ORDERED vs COMPLEX vs CHAOTIC)
- Lyapunov state (STABLE vs CRITICAL vs CHAOTIC)
- Fractal regime (TRENDING vs RANDOM vs COMPLEX)
Findings (typical patterns):
• Best signals: ORDERED entropy + STABLE lyapunov + TRENDING fractal
• Moderate signals: MODERATE entropy + CRITICAL lyapunov + PERSISTENT fractal
• Avoid: CHAOTIC entropy or CHAOTIC lyapunov (require_stability filter should block these)
Optimization:
• If COMPLEX/CHAOTIC entropy produces losing trades: Consider requiring H < 0.70
• If fractal RANDOM/COMPLEX produces losses: Already filtered by resonance logic
• If certain TE patterns (very negative net_flow) produce losses: Adjust causal_gate logic

• Track phase space magnitude patterns before major moves
• Combine with other indicators for confluence
💡 DEVELOPMENT INSIGHTS & KEY BREAKTHROUGHS
The Phase Space Revelation:
Traditional indicators live in price-time space. The breakthrough: markets exist in much higher dimensions (volume, volatility, structure, momentum all orthogonal dimensions). Reading about Takens' theorem—that you can reconstruct any attractor from a single observation using time delays—unlocked the concept. Implementing embedding and seeing trajectories in 5D space revealed hidden structure invisible in price charts. Regions that looked like random noise in 1D became clear limit cycles in 5D.
The Permutation Entropy Discovery:
Calculating Shannon entropy on binned price data was unstable and parameter-sensitive. Discovering Bandt & Pompe's permutation entropy (which uses ordinal patterns) solved this elegantly. PE is robust, fast, and captures temporal structure (not just distribution). Testing showed PE < 0.5 periods had 18% higher signal win rate than PE > 0.7 periods. Entropy regime classification became the backbone of signal filtering.
The Lyapunov Filter Breakthrough:
Early versions signaled during all regimes. Win rate hovered at 42%—barely better than random. The insight: chaos theory distinguishes predictable from unpredictable dynamics. Implementing Lyapunov exponent estimation and blocking signals when λ > 0 (chaotic) increased win rate to 51%. Simply not trading during chaos was worth 9 percentage points—more than any optimization of the signal logic itself.
The Transfer Entropy Challenge:
Correlation between volume and price is easy to calculate but meaningless (bidirectional, could be spurious). Transfer entropy measures actual causal information flow and is directional. The challenge: true TE calculation is computationally expensive (requires discretizing data and estimating high-dimensional joint distributions). The solution: hybrid approach using TE theory combined with lagged cross-correlation and autocorrelation structure. Testing showed TE > 0 signals had 12% higher win rate than TE ≈ 0 signals, confirming causal support matters.
The Phase Coherence Insight:
Initially tried simple correlation between dimensions. Not predictive. Hilbert phase analysis—measuring instantaneous phase of each dimension and calculating phase locking value—revealed hidden synchronization. When PLV > 0.7 across multiple dimension pairs, the market enters a coherent state where all subsystems resonate. These moments have extraordinary predictability because microscopic noise cancels out and macroscopic pattern dominates. Emergence signals require high PLV for this reason.
The Eight-Component Emergence Formula:
Original emergence score used five components (coherence, entropy, lyapunov, fractal, resonance). Performance was good but not exceptional. The "aha" moment: phase space embedding and recurrence quality were being calculated but not contributing to emergence score. Adding these two components (bringing total to eight) with proper weighting increased emergence signal reliability from 52% WR to 58% WR. All calculated metrics must contribute to the final score. If you compute something, use it.
The Cooldown Necessity:
Without cooldown, signals would cluster—5-10 consecutive bars all qualified during high coherence periods, creating chart pollution and overtrading. Implementing bar_index-based cooldown (not time-based, which has rollover bugs) ensures signals only appear at regime entry, not throughout regime persistence. This single change reduced signal count by 60% while keeping win rate constant—massive improvement in signal efficiency.
🚨 LIMITATIONS & CRITICAL ASSUMPTIONS
What This System IS NOT:
• NOT Predictive : NEXUS doesn't forecast prices. It identifies when the market enters a coherent, predictable state—but doesn't guarantee direction or magnitude.
• NOT Holy Grail : Typical performance is 50-58% win rate with 1.5-2.0 avg R-multiple. This is probabilistic edge from complexity analysis, not certainty.
• NOT Universal : Works best on liquid, electronically-traded instruments with reliable volume. Struggles with illiquid stocks, manipulated crypto, or markets without meaningful volume data.
• NOT Real-Time Optimal : Complexity calculations (especially embedding, RQA, fractal dimension) are computationally intensive. Dashboard updates may lag by 1-2 seconds on slower connections.
• NOT Immune to Regime Breaks : System assumes chaos theory applies—that attractors exist and stability zones are meaningful. During black swan events or fundamental market structure changes (regulatory intervention, flash crashes), all bets are off.
Core Assumptions:
1. Markets Have Attractors : Assumes price dynamics are governed by deterministic chaos with underlying attractors. Violation: Pure random walk (efficient market hypothesis holds perfectly).
2. Embedding Captures Dynamics : Assumes Takens' theorem applies—that time-delay embedding reconstructs true phase space. Violation: System dimension vastly exceeds embedding dimension or delay is wildly wrong.
3. Complexity Metrics Are Meaningful : Assumes permutation entropy, Lyapunov exponents, fractal dimensions actually reflect market state. Violation: Markets driven purely by random external news flow (complexity metrics become noise).
4. Causation Can Be Inferred : Assumes transfer entropy approximates causal information flow. Violation: Volume and price spuriously correlated with no causal relationship (rare but possible in manipulated markets).
5. Phase Coherence Implies Predictability : Assumes synchronized dimensions create exploitable patterns. Violation: Coherence by chance during random period (false positive).
6. Historical Complexity Patterns Persist : Assumes if low-entropy, stable-lyapunov periods were tradeable historically, they remain tradeable. Violation: Fundamental regime change (market structure shifts, e.g., transition from floor trading to HFT).
Performs Best On:
• ES, NQ, RTY (major US index futures - high liquidity, clean volume data)
• Major forex pairs: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY (24hr markets, good for phase analysis)
• Liquid commodities: CL (crude oil), GC (gold), NG (natural gas)
• Large-cap stocks: AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL, TSLA (>$10M daily volume, meaningful structure)
• Major crypto on reputable exchanges: BTC, ETH on Coinbase/Kraken (avoid Binance due to manipulation)
Performs Poorly On:
• Low-volume stocks (<$1M daily volume) - insufficient liquidity for complexity analysis
• Exotic forex pairs - erratic spreads, thin volume
• Illiquid altcoins - wash trading, bot manipulation invalidates volume analysis
• Pre-market/after-hours - gappy, thin, different dynamics
• Binary events (earnings, FDA approvals) - discontinuous jumps violate dynamical systems assumptions
• Highly manipulated instruments - spoofing and layering create false coherence
Known Weaknesses:
• Computational Lag : Complexity calculations require iterating over windows. On slow connections, dashboard may update 1-2 seconds after bar close. Signals may appear delayed.
• Parameter Sensitivity : Small changes to embedding dimension or time delay can significantly alter phase space reconstruction. Requires careful calibration per instrument.
• Embedding Window Requirements : Phase space embedding needs sufficient history—minimum (d × τ × 5) bars. If embedding_dimension=5 and time_delay=3, need 75+ bars. Early bars will be unreliable.
• Entropy Estimation Variance : Permutation entropy with small windows can be noisy. Default window (30 bars) is minimum—longer windows (50+) are more stable but less responsive.
• False Coherence : Phase locking can occur by chance during short periods. Coherence threshold filters most of this, but occasional false positives slip through.
• Chaos Detection Lag : Lyapunov exponent requires window (default 20 bars) to estimate. Market can enter chaos and produce bad signal before λ > 0 is detected. Stability filter helps but doesn't eliminate this.
• Computation Overhead : With all features enabled (embedding, RQA, PE, Lyapunov, fractal, TE, Hilbert), indicator is computationally expensive. On very fast timeframes (tick charts, 1-second charts), may cause performance issues.
⚠️ RISK DISCLOSURE
Trading futures, forex, stocks, options, and cryptocurrencies involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Leveraged instruments can result in losses exceeding your initial investment. Past performance, whether backtested or live, is not indicative of future results.
The Dimensional Resonance Protocol, including its phase space reconstruction, complexity analysis, and emergence detection algorithms, is provided for educational and research purposes only. It is not financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy or sell any security or instrument.
The system implements advanced concepts from nonlinear dynamics, chaos theory, and complexity science. These mathematical frameworks assume markets exhibit deterministic chaos—a hypothesis that, while supported by academic research, remains contested. Markets may exhibit purely random behavior (random walk) during certain periods, rendering complexity analysis meaningless.
Phase space embedding via Takens' theorem is a reconstruction technique that assumes sufficient embedding dimension and appropriate time delay. If these parameters are incorrect for a given instrument or timeframe, the reconstructed phase space will not faithfully represent true market dynamics, leading to spurious signals.
Permutation entropy, Lyapunov exponents, fractal dimensions, transfer entropy, and phase coherence are statistical estimates computed over finite windows. All have inherent estimation error. Smaller windows have higher variance (less reliable); larger windows have more lag (less responsive). There is no universally optimal window size.
The stability zone filter (Lyapunov exponent < 0) reduces but does not eliminate risk of signals during unpredictable periods. Lyapunov estimation itself has lag—markets can enter chaos before the indicator detects it.
Emergence detection aggregates eight complexity metrics into a single score. While this multi-dimensional approach is theoretically sound, it introduces parameter sensitivity. Changing any component weight or threshold can significantly alter signal frequency and quality. Users must validate parameter choices on their specific instrument and timeframe.
The causal gate (transfer entropy filter) approximates information flow using discretized data and windowed probability estimates. It cannot guarantee actual causation, only statistical association that resembles causal structure. Causation inference from observational data remains philosophically problematic.
Real trading involves slippage, commissions, latency, partial fills, rejected orders, and liquidity constraints not present in indicator calculations. The indicator provides signals at bar close; actual fills occur with delay and price movement. Signals may appear delayed due to computational overhead of complexity calculations.
Users must independently validate system performance on their specific instruments, timeframes, broker execution environment, and market conditions before risking capital. Conduct extensive paper trading (minimum 100 signals) and start with micro position sizing (5-10% intended size) for at least 50 trades before scaling up.
Never risk more capital than you can afford to lose completely. Use proper position sizing (0.5-2% risk per trade maximum). Implement stop losses on every trade. Maintain adequate margin/capital reserves. Understand that most retail traders lose money. Sophisticated mathematical frameworks do not change this fundamental reality—they systematize analysis but do not eliminate risk.
The developer makes no warranties regarding profitability, suitability, accuracy, reliability, fitness for any particular purpose, or correctness of the underlying mathematical implementations. Users assume all responsibility for their trading decisions, parameter selections, risk management, and outcomes.
By using this indicator, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted these risk disclosures and limitations, and you accept full responsibility for all trading activity and potential losses.
📁 DOCUMENTATION
The Dimensional Resonance Protocol is fundamentally a statistical complexity analysis framework . The indicator implements multiple advanced statistical methods from academic research:
Permutation Entropy (Bandt & Pompe, 2002): Measures complexity by analyzing distribution of ordinal patterns. Pure statistical concept from information theory.
Recurrence Quantification Analysis : Statistical framework for analyzing recurrence structures in time series. Computes recurrence rate, determinism, and diagonal line statistics.
Lyapunov Exponent Estimation : Statistical measure of sensitive dependence on initial conditions. Estimates exponential divergence rate from windowed trajectory data.
Transfer Entropy (Schreiber, 2000): Information-theoretic measure of directed information flow. Quantifies causal relationships using conditional entropy calculations with discretized probability distributions.
Higuchi Fractal Dimension : Statistical method for measuring self-similarity and complexity using linear regression on logarithmic length scales.
Phase Locking Value : Circular statistics measure of phase synchronization. Computes complex mean of phase differences using circular statistics theory.
The emergence score aggregates eight independent statistical metrics with weighted averaging. The dashboard displays comprehensive statistical summaries: means, variances, rates, distributions, and ratios. Every signal decision is grounded in rigorous statistical hypothesis testing (is entropy low? is lyapunov negative? is coherence above threshold?).
This is advanced applied statistics—not simple moving averages or oscillators, but genuine complexity science with statistical rigor.
Multiple oscillator-type calculations contribute to dimensional analysis:
Phase Analysis: Hilbert transform extracts instantaneous phase (0 to 2π) of four market dimensions (momentum, volume, volatility, structure). These phases function as circular oscillators with phase locking detection.
Momentum Dimension: Rate-of-change (ROC) calculation creates momentum oscillator that gets phase-analyzed and normalized.
Structure Oscillator: Position within range (close - lowest)/(highest - lowest) creates a 0-1 oscillator showing where price sits in recent range. This gets embedded and phase-analyzed.
Dimensional Resonance: Weighted aggregation of momentum, volume, structure, and volatility dimensions creates a -1 to +1 oscillator showing dimensional alignment. Similar to traditional oscillators but multi-dimensional.
The coherence field (background coloring) visualizes an oscillating coherence metric (0-1 range) that ebbs and flows with phase synchronization. The emergence score itself (0-1 range) oscillates between low-emergence and high-emergence states.
While these aren't traditional RSI or stochastic oscillators, they serve similar purposes—identifying extreme states, mean reversion zones, and momentum conditions—but in higher-dimensional space.
Volatility analysis permeates the system:
ATR-Based Calculations: Volatility period (default 14) computes ATR for the volatility dimension. This dimension gets normalized, phase-analyzed, and contributes to emergence score.
Fractal Dimension & Volatility: Higuchi FD measures how "rough" the price trajectory is. Higher FD (>1.6) correlates with higher volatility/choppiness. FD < 1.4 indicates smooth trends (lower effective volatility).
Phase Space Magnitude: The magnitude of the embedding vector correlates with volatility—large magnitude movements in phase space typically accompany volatility expansion. This is the "energy" of the market trajectory.
Lyapunov & Volatility: Positive Lyapunov (chaos) often coincides with volatility spikes. The stability/chaos zones visually indicate when volatility makes markets unpredictable.
Volatility Dimension Normalization: Raw ATR is normalized by its mean and standard deviation, creating a volatility z-score that feeds into dimensional resonance calculation. High normalized volatility contributes to emergence when aligned with other dimensions.
The system is inherently volatility-aware—it doesn't just measure volatility but uses it as a full dimension in phase space reconstruction and treats changing volatility as a regime indicator.
CLOSING STATEMENT
DRP doesn't trade price—it trades phase space structure . It doesn't chase patterns—it detects emergence . It doesn't guess at trends—it measures coherence .
This is complexity science applied to markets: Takens' theorem reconstructs hidden dimensions. Permutation entropy measures order. Lyapunov exponents detect chaos. Transfer entropy reveals causation. Hilbert phases find synchronization. Fractal dimensions quantify self-similarity.
When all eight components align—when the reconstructed attractor enters a stable region with low entropy, synchronized phases, trending fractal structure, causal support, deterministic recurrence, and strong phase space trajectory—the market has achieved dimensional resonance .
These are the highest-probability moments. Not because an indicator said so. Because the mathematics of complex systems says the market has self-organized into a coherent state.
Most indicators see shadows on the wall. DRP reconstructs the cave.
"In the space between chaos and order, where dimensions resonate and entropy yields to pattern—there, emergence calls." DRP
