Baekdoo multi OverSold OverBuy colored CandleHi forks,
I'm trader Baekdoosan who trading Equity from South Korea. This Baekdoo multi OverSold OverBuy colored candle will give you the idea of
multiple indicators in one shot with colored candle. Those indicators tell us that oversold or overbuy statistically. For the color, you can freely change
based on your comfort. For me, in Korea white candle has red color and black candle has blue color. So somewhat confusing for you. Anyway you can
easily modify color in the script. Please refer this line.
barcolor(open<close and result_pos == 4 ? color.new(color.red, 0) : open<close and result_pos == 3 ? color.new(color.red, 25) : open<close and result_pos == 2 ? color.new(color.red, 50) : open<close and result_pos == 1? color.new(color.red, 75) : na)
you can see I put different transparency at color.new() function with color code. Let me divide and conquer to explain for up candle
white candle and black candle.
1. White candle
with 4 oversold signal case with white candle tells us it is almost reached real bottom and try to rebound. In this case, I put vivid color (no transparency) on the candle. And all 4 signal case, I put text on "OverSold". It will not happen frequently. Then 2 approaches can be made.
(a) short term approach
You can buy on this time. and you set stop loss with open price. This is mainly aimed for technical rebound.
(b) long term approach
You can accumulate based on your budget with 5 times dividing. At that day might not be the very bottom but those period will most probably real bottom. You can put more weight on latter buy. Let say, 1 : 1.25 : 1.5 : 1.75 : 2.5. So for example, if you have $8,000 to investigate then, buy $1,000 and then $1,250, $1,500, accordingly. If price rebound then don't adding weight on accumulation but with the first amount that you buy(i.e., $1,000 with above example). With this approach, you will not have much stress and you will get profit well. If this is grand bottom case, then you can HODL this long term. What you needs is stick to the plan. :)
with 3 signals the color is less vivid, 2 signals is much less vivid, accordingly.
2. Black candle
The approaches are opposite to above. The signal will tells us for 4 overBuy signals, then vivid blue candle will be shown. Our strategy is distribute to sell. Please do not sell in one shot. As Newton said, "I can calculate the motions of the heavenly bodies, but not the madness of the people". Strong buy phase, we don't know how far will it go. But indicators will tell us it is quite overSold situation. So what I can suggest you is sell it 10% to 20% on resistance price, and put 50% of lower than certain support price. Remember, accumulation and distribution will always better than one shot trading if you want to survive long time on this war field.
Hope this will help your trading on equity as well as crypto. I didn't try it on futures. Best of luck all of you. Gazua~!

CMT's ProGo indicatorThis is an experiment. I've never traded with it and won't tell you to. The nuances of how effective this is have yet to be seen.
Shoutout to @BillionaireLau, who very recently posted Larry William's original ProGo indicator. I hypothesized that a few minor changes to values and operations would allow for greater utility and responsiveness. I believe this has been achieved. What we're looking at here appears to offer a new means of spotting divergences. Have fun. To quote BillionaireLau regarding the nature of this indicator:
"ProGo, created by Larry William, (earlier than 2002), is a 2 line graph using daily data.
1. Professional Line (color orange) is a professional Accumulation/Distribution line is constructed by using the change from today's open to today's close.
2. The Public Line (color blue) is done by creating a public accumulation/distribution line that shows the change from yesterdays close to today's open.
The graph is an index of the previous close to open +/- values (public) and then taking a 14 day average which is plotted against a 14 day average of the +/- values of the open to close(pro).
Background color:
Green colored area is where "pro" line crossover line, and the "pro" line is also positive."

Combo Backtest 123 Reversal & Smoothed Williams ADThis is combo strategies for get a cumulative signal.
First strategy
This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The
Futures Market" by Ulf Jensen, Page 183. This is reverse type of strategies.
The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.
The strategy sells at market, if close price is lower than the previous close price
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Fast Oscillator is higher than 50.
Second strategy
Accumulation is a term used to describe a market controlled by buyers;
whereas distribution is defined by a market controlled by sellers.
Williams recommends trading this indicator based on divergences:
Distribution of the security is indicated when the security is making
a new high and the A/D indicator is failing to make a new high. Sell.
Accumulation of the security is indicated when the security is making
a new low and the A/D indicator is failing to make a new low. Buy.

Function Square WaveThis is a script to draw a square wave on the chart, with an indicator for current price.
Markets undergoing Dow Jones or Wyckoff Accumulation/Distribution cycles tend to move in such waves, and if the period of the cycles are detected, a signal for accumulation/distribution phases can be created as an early warning.
Useful inputs:
- Average True Range as the wave height.
- Assumed Wave period as the wave duration.
I divided the current price wave by 2 to make the indicator more visually friendly.

Second strategy
The Klinger Oscillator (KO) was developed by Stephen J. Klinger. Learning
from prior research on volume by such well-known technicians as Joseph Granville,
Larry Williams, and Marc Chaikin, Mr. Klinger set out to develop a volume-based
indicator to help in both short- and long-term analysis.
The KO was developed with two seemingly opposite goals in mind: to be sensitive
enough to signal short-term tops and bottoms, yet accurate enough to reflect the
long-term flow of money into and out of a security.
The KO is based on the following tenets:
Price range (i.e. High - Low) is a measure of movement and volume is the force behind
the movement. The sum of High + Low + Close defines a trend. Accumulation occurs when
today's sum is greater than the previous day's. Conversely, distribution occurs when
today's sum is less than the previous day's. When the sums are equal, the existing trend
is maintained.
Volume produces continuous intra-day changes in price reflecting buying and selling pressure.
The KO quantifies the difference between the number of shares being accumulated and distributed
each day as "volume force". A strong, rising volume force should accompany an uptrend and then
gradually contract over time during the latter stages of the uptrend and the early stages of
the following downtrend. This should be followed by a rising volume force reflecting some
accumulation before a bottom develops.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Phase Accumulator Cycle Period MeasurerLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Phase Accumulation technique of cycle period measurement in his "Rocket Science for Traders" chapter 7. It is perhaps the easiest to comprehend. In this technique, John Ehlers measures the phase at each sample by taking the arctangent of the ratio of the Quadrature component to the In-phase component. A delta phase is generated by taking the difference of the phase between successive samples. At each sample Dr. Ehlers then looks backward, adding up the delta phases. When the sum of the delta phases reaches 360 degrees (2*pi in tradingview), we must have passed through one full cycle, on average. The process is repeated for each new sample.
Function
blackcat L2 Ehlers Phase Accumulator Cycle Period Measurer is used to measure Dominant Cycle (DC). This is one of John Ehlers three major methods to measure DC. The Phase Accumulation method of cycle measurement always uses one full cycle’s worth of historical data. This is both an advantage and disadvantage. The advantage is the lag in obtaining the answer scales directly with the cycle period. That is, the measurement of a short cycle period has less lag than the measurement of a longer cycle period. However, the number of samples used in making the measurement means the averaging period is variable with cycle period. Longer averaging reduces the noise level compared to the signal. Therefore, shorter cycle periods necessarily have a higher output Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR).
Key Signal
Smooth --> 4 bar WMA w/ 1 bar lag
Detrender --> The amplitude response of a minimum-length HT can be improved by adjusting the filter coefficients by
trial and error. HT does not allow DC component at zero frequency for transformation. So, Detrender is used to remove DC component/ trend component.
Q1 --> Quadrature phase signal
I1 --> In-phase signal
Period --> Dominant Cycle in bars
Pros and Cons
100% John F. Ehlers definition translation of original work, even variable names are the same. This help readers who would like to use pine to read his book. If you had read his works, then you will be quite familiar with my code style.

Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
MACD-X, More Than MACD by DGTMoving Average Convergence Divergence – MACD
The most popular indicator used in technical analysis, the moving average convergence divergence (MACD), created by Gerald Appel. MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator, designed to reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a financial instrument’s price
Historical evolution of MACD,
- Gerald Appel created the MACD line,
- Thomas Aspray added the histogram feature to MACD
- Giorgos E. Siligardos created a leader of MACD
MACD employs two Moving Averages of varying lengths (which are lagging indicators) to identify trend direction and duration. Then, MACD takes the difference in values between those two Moving Averages (MACD Line) and an EMA of those Moving Averages (Signal Line) and plots that difference between the two lines as a histogram which oscillates above and below a center Zero Line. The histogram is used as a good indication of a security's momentum.
Mathematically expressed as;
macd = ma(source, fast_length) – ma(source, slow_length)
signal = ma(macd, signal_length)
histogram = macd – signal
where exponential moving average (ema) is in common use as a moving average (ma)
fast_length = 12
slow_length = 26
signal_length = 9
The MACD indicator is typically good for identifying three types of basic signals ;
Signal Line Crossovers
A Signal Line Crossover is the most common signal produced by the MACD. On the occasions where the MACD Line crosses above or below the Signal Line, that can signify a potentially strong move. The standard interpretation of such an event is a recommendation to buy if the MACD line crosses up through the Signal Line (a "bullish" crossover), or to sell if it crosses down through the Signal Line (a "bearish" crossover). These events are taken as indications that the trend in the financial instrument is about to accelerate in the direction of the crossover.
Zero Line Crossovers
Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crossed the Zero Line and either becomes positive (above 0) or negative (below 0). A change from positive to negative MACD is interpreted as "bearish", and from negative to positive as "bullish". Zero crossovers provide evidence of a change in the direction of a trend but less confirmation of its momentum than a signal line crossover
Divergence
Divergence is another signal created by the MACD. Simply, divergence occurs when the MACD and actual price are not in agreement. A "positive divergence" or "bullish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new low but the MACD does not confirm with a new low of its own. A "negative divergence" or "bearish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new high but the MACD does not confirm with a new high of its own. A divergence with respect to price may occur on the MACD line and/or the MACD Histogram
Moving Average Crossovers , another hidden signal that MACD Indicator identifies
Many traders will watch for a short-term moving average to cross above a longer-term moving average and use this to signal increasing upward momentum. This bullish crossover suggests that the price has recently been rising at a faster rate than it has in the past, so it is a common technical buy sign. Conversely, a short-term moving average crossing below a longer-term average is used to illustrate that the asset's price has been moving downward at a faster rate and that it may be a good time to sell.
Moving Average Crossovers in reality is Zero Line Crossovers, the value of the MACD indicator is equal to zero each time the two moving averages cross over each other. For easy interpretation by trades, Zero Line Crossovers are simply described as positive or negative MACD
False signals
Like any forecasting algorithm, the MACD can generate false signals. A false positive, for example, would be a bullish crossover followed by a sudden decline in a financial instrument. A false negative would be a situation where there is bearish crossover, yet the financial instrument accelerated suddenly upwards
What is “MACD-X” and Why it is “More Than MACD”
In its simples form, MACD-X implements variety of different calculation techniques applied to obtain MACD Line, ability to use of variety of different sources , including Volume related sources, and can be plotted along with MACD in the same window and all those features are available and presented within a single indicator, MACD-X
Different calculation techniques lead to different values for MACD Line, as will further discuss below, and as a consequence the signal line and the histogram values will differentiate accordingly. Mathematical calculation of both signal line and the histogram remain the same.
Main features of MACD-X ;
1- Introduces different proven techniques applied on MACD calculation , such as MACD-Histogram, MACD-Leader and MACD-Source, besides the traditional MACD (MACD-TRADITIONAL)
• MACD-Traditional , by Gerald Appel
It is the MACD that we know, stated as traditional just to avoid confusion with other techniques used with this study
• MACD-Histogram , by Thomas Aspray
The MACD-Histogram measures the distance between MACD and its signal line (the 9-day EMA of MACD). Aspray developed the MACD-Histogram to anticipate signal line crossovers in MACD. Because MACD uses moving averages and moving averages lag price, signal line crossovers can come late and affect the reward-to-risk ratio of a trade. Bullish or bearish divergences in the MACD-Histogram can alert chartists to an imminent signal line crossover in MACD
The MACD-Histogram represents the difference between MACD and its 9-day EMA, the signal line. Mathematically,
macdx = macd - ma(macd, signal_length)
Aspray's contribution served as a way to anticipate (and therefore cut down on lag) possible MACD crossovers which are a fundamental part of the indicator.
Here come a question, what if repeat the same calculations once more (macdh2 = macdh - ma(macdh, signal_length), will it be even better, this question will remain to be tested
• MACD-Leader , by Giorgos E. Siligardos, PhD
MACD Leader has the ability to lead MACD at critical situations. Almost all smoothing methods encounter in technical analysis are based on a relative-weighted sum of past prices, and the Leader is no exception. The concealed weights of MACD Leader are such that more relative weight is used in the more recent prices than the respective weights used by the components of MACD. In effect, the Leader expresses more changes in average price dynamics for the recent price movement than MACD, thus eventually leading MACD, especially when significant trend changes are about to take place.
Siligardos creates two less-laggard moving averages indicators in its formula using the same periods as follows
Indicator1 = ma(source, fast_length) + ma(source - ma(source, fast_length), fast_length)
Indicator2 = ma(source, slow_length) + ma(source - ma(source, slow_length), slow_length)
and then take the difference:
Indicator1 - Indicator2
The result is a new MACD Leader indicator
macdx = macd + ma(source - fast_ma, fast_length) - ma(source - slow_ma, slow_length)
• MACD-Source , a custom experimental interpretation of mine ,
MACD Source, presents an application of MACD that evaluates Source/MA Ratio, relatively with less lag, as a basis for MACD Line, also can be expressed as source convergence/divergence to its moving average. Among the various techniques for removing the lag between price and moving average (MA) of the price, one in particular stands out: the addition to the moving average of a portion of the difference between the price and MA. MACD Source, is based on signal length mean of the difference between Source and average value of shot length and long length moving average of the source (Source/MA Ratio), where the source is actual value and hence no lag and relatively less lag with the average value of moving average of the source . Mathematically expressed as,
macdx = ma(source - avg( ma(source, fast_length), ma(source, slow_length) ), signal_length)
MACD Source provides relatively early crossovers comparing to MACD and better momentum direction indications, assuming the lengths are set to same values
For further details, you are invited to check the following two studies, where the first seeds were sown of the MACD-Source idea
Price Distance to its Moving Averages study, adapts the idea of “Prices high above the moving average (MA) or low below it are likely to be remedied in the future by a reverse price movement", presented in an article by Denis Alajbeg, Zoran Bubas and Dina Vasic published in International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management
First MACD like interpretation comes with the second study named as “ P-MACD ”, where P stands for price, P-MACD study attempts to display relationship between Price and its 20 and 200-period moving average. Calculations with P-MACD were based on price distance (convergence/divergence) to its 200-period moving average, and moving average convergence/divergence of 20-period moving average to 200-period moving average of price.
Now as explained above, MACD Source is a one adapted with traditional MACD, where Source stands for Price, Volume Indicator etc, any source applicable with MACD concept
2- Allows usage of variety of different sources, including Volume related indicators
The most common usage of Source for MACD calculation is close value of the financial instruments price. As an experimental approach, this study will allow source to be selected as one of the following series;
• Current Close Price (close)
• Average of High, Low, and Close Price (hlc3)
• On Balance Volume (obv)
• Accumulation Distribution (accdist)
• Price Volume Trend (pvt)
Where,
-Current Close Price and Average of High, Low, and Close Price are price actions of the financial instrument
- Accumulation Distribution is a volume based indicator designed to measure underlying supply and demand
- On Balance Volume (OBV) , is a momentum indicator that measures positive and negative volume flow
- Price Volume Trend (PVT) is a momentum based indicator used to measure money flow
3- Can be plotted along with MACD in the same window using the same scaling
Default setting of MACD-X will display MACD-Source with Current Close Price as a source and traditional MACD can be plotted eighter as a companion of MACD-X or can be selected to be plotted alone.
Applying both will add ability to compare, or use as a confirmation of one other
In case, traditional MACD Is plotted along with MACD-X to avoid misinterpreting, the lines plotted, the area between MACD-X Line and Signal-X Line is highlighted automatically, even if the highlight option not selected. Otherwise highlight will be applied only if that option selected
4- 4C Histogram
Histogram is plotted with four colors to emphasize the momentum and direction
5- Customizable
Additional to ability of selecting Calculation Method, Source, plotting along with MACD, there are few other option that allows users to customize the MACD-X indicator
Lengths are configurable, default values are set as 12, 26, 9 respectively for fast, slow and smoothing length. Setting lengths to 8,21,5 respectively Is worth checking, slower length moving averages will lead to less lag and earlier reaction to price actions but yet requires a caution and back testing before applying
Highlight the area between MACD-X Line and Signal-X Line, with colors emphasising the direction
Label can be added to display Calculation Method, Source and Length settings, the aim of this label is to server only as a reminder to trades to be aware of settings while they are occupied with charts, analysis etc.
Here comes another question, which is of more importance having the reminder or having the indicators with multi timeframe feature? Build-in Multi Time Frame features of Pine is not supported when labels and lines introduced in the script, there are other methods but brings complexity. To be studied further, this version will be with labels for time being.
Epilogue
MACD-X is an alternative variant of MACD, the insight/signals provided by MACD are also applicable to MACD-X with early and clear warnings for the changes in the trend.
If MACD is essential to your analysis, then it is my guess that after using the MACD-X for a while and familiarizing yourself with its unique character and personality, you will make it an inseparable companion to other indicators in your charts.
The various signals generated by MACD/MACD-X are easily interpreted and very few indicators in technical analysis have proved to be more reliable than the MACD, and this relatively simple indicator can quickly be incorporated into any short-term trading strategy

RedK_Supply/Demand Volume Viewer v1Background
============
VolumeViewer is a volume indicator, that offers a simple way to estimate the movement and balance (or lack of) of supply & demand volume based on the shape of the price bar. i put this together few years ago and i have a version of this published for another platform under different names (Directional Volume, BetterVolume) in case you come across them
what is V.Viewer
=====================
The idea here is to find a "simple proxy" for estimating the demand or supply portions of a volume bar - these 2 forces have the potential to affect the current price trend so we want an easy way to track them - or to understand if a stock is in accumulation or distribution - we want to do this without having access to Level II or bid/ask data, and without having to get into the complexity of exploring the lower timeframe price & volume data
- to achieve that, we depend on a simple assumption, that the volume associated with an up move is "demand" and the volume associated with a down move is "Supply". so we basically extrapolate these supply and demand values based on how the bar looks like - a full "green" price bar / candle will be considered 100% demand, and a full "red" price bar will be considered 100% supply - a bar that opens and closes at the same level will be 50/50 split between supply & demand.
- you may say this is a "too simple" of an assumption to make, but believe me, it works :) at least at the basic scenario we need here: i'm just exploring the volume movement and finding key levels - and it provides a good improvement compared to the classic way we see volume on a chart - which is still available here in VolumeViewer.
in all cases, i consider this to be work in progress, so i'd welcome any ideas to improve (without getting too complicated) - there's already a host of great volume-based indicators that will do the multi timeframe drill down, but that's not my scope here.
Technical Jargon & calculation
===========================
1. first we calculate a score % for the volume portion that is considered demand based on the bar shape
skip this part if it sounds too technical => if you're into coding indicators, you would probably know there are couple of different concepts for that algorithm - for example, the one used in Balance Of Power formula - which i'm a big fan of - but the one i use here is different. (how?) this is my own, ant it simply applies double weight for the "wick" parts of a price bar compared to the "body of the bar" -- i did some side-by-side comparison in past and decided this one works better. you can change it in the code if you like
2. after calculating the Bull vs Bears portion of volume, we take a moving average of both for the length you set, to come up with what we consider to be the Demand vs Supply - as usual, i use a weighted moving average (WMA) here.
3. the balance or net volume between these 2 lines is calculated, then we apply a final smoothing and that's the main plot we will get
4. being a very visual person, i did my best to build up the visuals in the correct order - then also to ensure the "study title" bar is properly organized and is simple and useful (Full Volume, Supply, Demand, Net Volume).
- i wish there was a way in Pine to hide a value that i still need to visually plot but don't want it showing its value on the study title bar, but couldn't find it. so the last plot value is repeated twice.
How to use
===========
- V.Viewer is set up to show the simplified view by default for simplicity. so when you first add it to a chart, you will get only the supply vs demand view you can see in the middle pane in the above chart
- Optional / detailed mode: go into the settings, and expose all other plots, you will be able to add the classic volume histogram, and the Supply / Demand lines - note these 2 lines will be overlay-ed on top of each other - this provides an easy way to see who is in control - especially if you change the display of these 2 lines into "area" style. This is what is showing in the lower pane in the above chart.
** Exploring Key Price Levels
- the premise is, at spots where there's big lack of balance, that's where to expect to find key price levels (support / resistance) and these price levels will come into play in future so can be used to set entry / exit targets for our trades - see the example in the AAPL chart where you can easily locate these "balance or reversal levels" using the tops/bottoms/zero-crossings from the Net Volume line
** Use for longer-term Price Analysis
- we can also use this simple indicator to gain more insights (at a high level) of the price in terms of accumulation vs distribution and if the sellers or buyers are in control - for example, in the above AAPL chart, V.Viewer tells us that buyers have been in control since October 19 - even during the recent drop, demand continued to be in play - compare that to DIS chart below for the same period, where it shows that the market was dumping DIS thru the weakness. DIS was bleeding red most of the time
Final thoughts
=============
- V.Viewer is an attempt to enhance the way we see and use Volume by leveraging the shape of the price bar to estimate volume supply & demand - and the Net between the 2
- it will work for stocks and other instruments as long as there's volume data
- note that V.Viewer does not track trend. each bar is taken in isolation of prior bars - the price may be going down and V.Viewer is showing supply going up (absorption scenario?) - so i suggest you do not use it to make decisions without consulting other trend / momentum indicators - of course this is a possible improvement idea, or can be implemented in another indicator, add in trend somehow, or maybe think of making this a +100 / -100 Oscillator .. feel free to play with these thoughts
- all thoughts welcome - if this is useful to you in your trading, please share with other trades here to learn from each other
- the code is commented - please feel free to use it as you like, or build things on top of it - but please continue to credit the author of this code :)
good luck!

stock gain% vs index gain %This shows the relative strength or weakness of a stock vs an index on any given candle price movement.
Negative stock candle and relative strength shows accumulation
Positive stock candle and relative weakness shows distribution
accumulation will plot an 'A'
distribution will plot a 'D'
MCI and VCI - Modified CCI FormulasFor private peeps only
- Takes a modified version of the CCI formula into 2 parts
VCI - Volume Channel Index (Yellow Histogram)
- Measures accurate accumulation and distribution levels and times
MCI - Modified Channel Index
- Measures (when compared to VCI) levels where clearly buys are interested vs not interested.
Example:
If VCI > MCI
- Shows buyer's are more than interested in buying, you've either hit a bottom or heavy resistance
if MCI > VCI
- Show's buyer's aren't interested and will most likely result in a dump/lower price
Great for monitoring accumulation and distribution, these auto buy and sells look for the transition points over 0, works on EVERY commodity/stock/FOREX/Crypto

Chaikin MF% (CMFP) w. Alerts, Bells & Whistles [LucF]This is Chaikin’s Money Flow indicator on a 0-100 scale with buy/sell signals, alerts and other bells & whistles.
It includes:
- a fast EMA (16 periods by default),
- a slow MA (64 periods by default),
- histograms,
- 3 different sorts of crosses,
- big swings identification,
- buy/sell signals on CMFP crossing back from outside user-defined levels,
- buy/sell signals on the slow MA pivots above/below user-defined levels,
- alerts on big swings and buy/sells.
This indicator started with @LazyBear code (VAPI) at:
@cI8DH then changed the scale to 0-100, which I find very useful:
I then added the rest.
The chart above shows both clean and busy versions of the indicator.
Note that the default length is 10 rather than the commonly used 20. I use CMFP in conjunction with VFI and like the fact that it is faster than VFI. The default inputs show the way I normally use this indicator, with the slow MA shown in histogram mode. I find it gives good context to the signal line. Crosses between the two are often useful.
The buy/sell signals aren’t the main attraction of this indicator, and nothing to write home about. Like the big swing markers, I think it’s more realistic to view them as pointers to potentially interesting areas on charts. Their nature makes them more suited to identifying reversals. They certainly aren’t reliable enough to turn this study into a strategy and I normally don’t use them. The levels pre-defined for the buy/sell signals on CMFP are most useful on short intervals. The buy/sell signals on the slow MA pivots work on a more complete range of intervals. Optimization for your specific instruments and intervals will improve their reliability.
As usual when defining alerts, be sure you already have defined proper inputs and that you are on the intended interval, as they will be used when triggering alerts.
Klinger Volume Oscillator (KVO) Backtest The Klinger Oscillator (KO) was developed by Stephen J. Klinger. Learning
from prior research on volume by such well-known technicians as Joseph Granville,
Larry Williams, and Marc Chaikin, Mr. Klinger set out to develop a volume-based
indicator to help in both short- and long-term analysis.
The KO was developed with two seemingly opposite goals in mind: to be sensitive
enough to signal short-term tops and bottoms, yet accurate enough to reflect the
long-term flow of money into and out of a security.
The KO is based on the following tenets:
Price range (i.e. High - Low) is a measure of movement and volume is the force behind
the movement. The sum of High + Low + Close defines a trend. Accumulation occurs when
today's sum is greater than the previous day's. Conversely, distribution occurs when
today's sum is less than the previous day's. When the sums are equal, the existing trend
is maintained.
Volume produces continuous intra-day changes in price reflecting buying and selling pressure.
The KO quantifies the difference between the number of shares being accumulated and distributed
each day as "volume force". A strong, rising volume force should accompany an uptrend and then
gradually contract over time during the latter stages of the uptrend and the early stages of
the following downtrend. This should be followed by a rising volume force reflecting some
accumulation before a bottom develops.

"The best traders read price action, not indicators. But when indicators help you read price action better, use them." - Al Brooks
Previous D/W/M HLOCHey traders,
Here's a simple Multi-Timeframe indicator that essentially turns time and price into a box. It'll take the previous high, low, opening price, or closing price from one of the three timeframes of your choice (day, week, or month). For whatever reason I can't get the opening price to function consistently so if you find improvements feel free to let me know, this will help traders who prefer to use opening price over closing price.
Naturally this form of charting is classical and nature and some key figures you could use to study its usage are
- Richard W. Schabacker (1930s)
- Edwards & Magee (1948)
- Peter Brandt
- Stacey Burke (more on the intraday side - typically our preference)
It's usage put plainly:
- Quantifying Accumulation or Distribution
- Revealing Energy Build-Up (Compression)
- Framing Breakouts and False Breakouts
- Structuring Time
- Identifying opportunities to trade a daily, weekly, or monthly range.
Power RSI Segment Runner [CHE] Power RSI Segment Runner — Tracks RSI momentum across higher timeframe segments to detect directional switches for trend confirmation.
Summary
This indicator calculates a running Relative Strength Index adapted to segments defined by changes in a higher timeframe, such as daily closes, providing a smoothed view of momentum within each period. It distinguishes between completed segments, which fix the final RSI value, and ongoing ones, which update in real time with an exponential moving average filter. Directional switches between bullish and bearish momentum trigger visual alerts, including overlay lines and emojis, while a compact table displays current trend strength as a progress bar. This segmented approach reduces noise from intra-period fluctuations, offering clearer signals for trend persistence compared to standard RSI on lower timeframes.
Motivation: Why this design?
Standard RSI often generates erratic signals in choppy markets due to constant recalculation over fixed lookback periods, leading to false reversals that mislead traders during range-bound or volatile phases. By resetting the RSI accumulation at higher timeframe boundaries, this indicator aligns momentum assessment with broader market cycles, capturing sustained directional bias more reliably. It addresses the gap between short-term noise and long-term trends, helping users filter entries without over-relying on absolute overbought or oversold thresholds.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
- Baseline Reference: Diverges from the classic Wilder RSI, which uses a fixed-length exponential moving average of gains and losses across all bars.
- Architecture Differences:
- Segments momentum resets at higher timeframe changes, isolating calculations per period instead of continuous history.
- Employs persistent sums for ups and downs within segments, with on-the-fly RSI derivation and EMA smoothing.
- Integrates switch detection logic that clears prior visuals on reversal, preventing clutter from outdated alerts.
- Adds overlay projections like horizontal price lines and dynamic percent change trackers for immediate trade context.
- Practical Effect: Charts show discrete RSI endpoints for past segments alongside a curved running trace, making momentum evolution visually intuitive. Switches appear as clean, extendable overlays, reducing alert fatigue and highlighting only confirmed directional shifts, which aids in avoiding whipsaws during minor pullbacks.
How it works (technical)
The indicator begins by detecting changes in the specified higher timeframe, such as a new daily bar, to define segment boundaries. At each boundary, it finalizes the prior segment's RSI by summing positive and negative price changes over that period and derives the value from the ratio of those sums, then applies an exponential moving average for smoothing. Within the active segment, it accumulates ongoing ups and downs from price changes relative to the source, recalculating the running RSI similarly and smoothing it with the same EMA length.
Points for the running RSI are collected into an array starting from the segment's onset, forming a curved polyline once sufficient bars accumulate. Comparisons between the running RSI and the last completed segment's value determine the current direction as long, short, or neutral, with switches triggering deletions of old visuals and creation of new ones: a label at the RSI pane, a vertical dashed line across the RSI range, an emoji positioned via ATR offset on the price chart, a solid horizontal line at the switch price, a dashed line tracking current close, and a midpoint label for percent change from the switch.
Initialization occurs on the first bar by resetting accumulators, and visualization gates behind a minimum bar count since the segment start to avoid early instability. The trend strength table builds vertically with filled cells proportional to the rounded RSI value, colored by direction. All drawing objects update or extend on subsequent bars to reflect live progress.
Parameter Guide
EMA Length — Controls the smoothing applied to the running RSI; higher values increase lag but reduce noise. Default: 10. Trade-offs: Shorter settings heighten sensitivity for fast markets but risk more false switches; longer ones suit trending conditions for stability.
Source — Selects the price data for change calculations, typically close for standard momentum. Default: close. Trade-offs: Open or high/low may emphasize gaps, altering segment intensity.
Segment Timeframe — Defines the higher timeframe for segment resets, like daily for intraday charts. Default: D. Trade-offs: Shorter frames create more frequent but shorter segments; longer ones align with major cycles but delay resets.
Overbought Level — Sets the upper threshold for potential overbought conditions (currently unused in visuals). Default: 70. Trade-offs: Adjust for asset volatility; higher values delay bearish warnings.
Oversold Level — Sets the lower threshold for potential oversold conditions (currently unused in visuals). Default: 30. Trade-offs: Lower values permit deeper dips before signaling bullish potential.
Show Completed Label — Toggles labels at segment ends displaying final RSI. Default: true. Trade-offs: Enables historical review but can crowd charts on dense timeframes.
Plot Running Segment — Enables the curved polyline for live RSI trace. Default: true. Trade-offs: Visualizes intra-segment flow; disable for cleaner panes.
Running RSI as Label — Displays current running RSI as a forward-projected label on the last bar. Default: false. Trade-offs: Useful for quick reads; may overlap in tight scales.
Show Switch Label — Activates RSI pane labels on directional switches. Default: true. Trade-offs: Provides context; omit to minimize pane clutter.
Show Switch Line (RSI) — Draws vertical dashed lines across the RSI range at switches. Default: true. Trade-offs: Marks reversal bars clearly; extends both ways for reference.
Show Solid Overlay Line — Projects a horizontal line from switch price forward. Default: true. Trade-offs: Acts as dynamic support/resistance; wider lines enhance visibility.
Show Dashed Overlay Line — Tracks a dashed line from switch to current close. Default: true. Trade-offs: Shows price deviation; thinner for subtlety.
Show Percent Change Label — Midpoint label tracking percent move from switch. Default: true. Trade-offs: Quantifies progress; centers dynamically.
Show Trend Strength Table — Displays right-side table with direction header and RSI bar. Default: true. Trade-offs: Instant strength gauge; fixed position avoids overlap.
Activate Visualization After N Bars — Delays signals until this many bars into a segment. Default: 3. Trade-offs: Filters immature readings; higher values miss early momentum.
Segment End Label — Color for completed RSI labels. Default: 7E57C2. Trade-offs: Purple tones for finality.
Running RSI — Color for polyline and running elements. Default: yellow. Trade-offs: Bright for live tracking.
Long — Color for bullish switch visuals. Default: green. Trade-offs: Standard for uptrends.
Short — Color for bearish switch visuals. Default: red. Trade-offs: Standard for downtrends.
Solid Line Width — Thickness of horizontal overlay line. Default: 2. Trade-offs: Bolder for emphasis on key levels.
Dashed Line Width — Thickness of tracking and vertical lines. Default: 1. Trade-offs: Finer to avoid dominance.
Reading & Interpretation
Completed segment RSIs appear as static points or labels in purple, indicating the fixed momentum at period close—values drifting toward the upper half suggest building strength, while lower half implies weakness. The yellow curved polyline traces the live smoothed RSI within the current segment, rising for accumulating gains and falling for losses. Directional labels and lines in green or red flag switches: green for running momentum exceeding the prior segment's, signaling potential uptrend continuation; red for the opposite.
The right table's header colors green for long, red for short, or gray for neutral/wait, with filled purple bars scaling from bottom (low RSI) to top (high), topped by the numeric value. Overlay elements project from switch bars: the solid green/red line as a price anchor, dashed tracker showing pullback extent, and percent label quantifying deviation—positive for alignment with direction, negative for counter-moves. Emojis (up arrow for long, down for short) float above/below price via ATR spacing for quick chart scans.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
- Trend Following: Enter long on green switch confirmation after a higher high in structure; filter with table strength above midpoint for conviction. Pair with volume surge for added weight.
- Exits/Stops: Trail stops to the solid overlay line on pullbacks; exit if percent change reverses beyond 2 percent against direction. Use wait bars to confirm without chasing.
- Multi-Asset/Multi-TF: Defaults suit forex/stocks on 1H-4H with daily segments; for crypto, shorten EMA to 5 for volatility. Scale segment TF to weekly for daily charts across indices.
- Combinations: Overlay on EMA clouds for confluence—switch aligning with cloud break strengthens signal. Add volatility filters like ATR bands to debounce in low-volume regimes.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Signals confirm on bar close within segments, with running polyline updating live but gated by minimum bars to prevent flicker. Higher timeframe changes may introduce minor repaints on timeframe switches, mitigated by relying on confirmed HTF closes rather than intrabar peeks. Resource limits cap at 500 labels/lines and 50 polylines, pruning old objects on switches to stay efficient; no explicit loops, but array growth ties to segment length—suitable for up to 500-bar histories without lag.
Known limits include delayed visualization in short segments and insensitivity to overbought/oversold levels, as thresholds are inputted but not actively visualized. Gaps in source data reset accumulators prematurely, potentially skewing early RSI.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with EMA length 10, daily segments, and 3-bar wait for balanced responsiveness on hourly charts. For excessive switches in ranging markets, increase wait bars to 5 or EMA to 14 to dampen noise. If signals lag in trends, drop EMA to 5 and use 1H segments. For stable assets like indices, widen to weekly segments; tune colors for dark/light themes without altering logic.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This tool serves as a momentum visualization and switch detector layered over price action, aiding trend identification and confirmation in segmented contexts. It is not a standalone trading system, predictive model, or risk calculator—always integrate with broader analysis, position sizing, and stop-loss discipline. View it as an enhancement for discretionary setups, not automated alerts without validation.

VolumeAnlaysis### Volume Analysis (VA) Indicator
**Overview**
The Volume Analysis (VA) indicator is a dynamic overlay tool designed for traders seeking to identify high-volume breakouts, retests, and multi-timeframe volume-driven price cycles. By combining volume spikes with price action and support/resistance boxes, it highlights potential trend continuations, reversals, and cycle shifts. Ideal for intraday and swing trading on stocks, forex, or crypto, it uses a Fibonacci-inspired 1.618 multiplier to detect significant volume surges, then maps them to visual boxes and key levels for actionable insights.
This indicator draws from volume profile concepts but focuses on **breakout confirmation** and **cycle momentum**, helping you spot when "smart money" volume aligns with price extremes. It's particularly useful in volatile markets where volume precedes price moves.
**How It Works**
1. **Volume Break Detection**:
- Identifies a "Volume Break" when the current bar's volume exceeds 1.618x the highest volume from the prior 5 bars. This signals unusual activity, often preceding breakouts.
- A "Volume Retest" triggers exactly 3 bars after a break if volume has been falling steadily over those 3 bars—indicating a pullback for re-accumulation/distribution.
2. **Visual Annotations**:
- **Labels**: Green/red/yellow labels mark Volume Breaks and Retests, positioned above/below the bar based on candle direction for clarity.
- **Demand/Supply Boxes**:
- Blue semi-transparent boxes form around Retest bars, extending rightward to act as dynamic support/resistance.
- Green (bullish) or red (bearish) boxes draw from Volume Breaks, based on the original candle's open/close, highlighting potential zones for continuation.
- Limited to 5 boxes max to avoid chart clutter; older boxes fade as new ones form.
3. **Box Interaction Signals**:
- When price enters a box:
- **Reversal Hints**: Maroon (bearish rejection) or lime (bullish rejection) labels on closes against the trend with opening price momentum.
- **Breakout Arrows**: Up/down arrows on crossovers/crossunders of box tops/bottoms from Retest boxes.
- Scans all active boxes for interactions, prioritizing recent volume events.
4. **Multi-Timeframe Volume Cycles**:
- Aggregates the "Volume Break Max" level (a proxy for key price extremes tied to volume spikes) across timeframes: 1min, 5min, 10min, 30min, and 65min (using `request.security`).
- Computes **MaxVolBreak** (highest extreme) and **MinVolBreak** (lowest extreme) for trend-following levels.
- Tracks **Percent Volume Greater/Less Than Close**: Sums volumes from TFs where price is below/above these levels, creating a momentum ratio.
- **CrossClose**: Plots the prior close where this ratio crosses (gray line), signaling cycle shifts—bullish below MinVolBreak, bearish above MaxVolBreak.
- **Fills**: Red fill above CrossClose/MaxVolBreak (bearish cycle); green below CrossClose/MinVolBreak (bullish cycle).
5. **Plots**:
- Black lines for MaxVolBreak (⏫) and MinVolBreak (⏬).
- Gray 🔄 for CrossClose.
- Colors dynamically adjust (green/red) based on close relative to levels.
**Key Features**
- **Trend vs. Reversal Modes**: Toggle alerts for trend-following breaks (crosses of Max/MinVolBreak) or reversal signals (crosses of CrossClose).
- **Multi-TF Fusion**: Optionally include the chart's native timeframe in Max/Min calculations for finer tuning.
- **Box Management**: Auto-prunes to 5 boxes; focuses on retest/break alignments for "inside bar" logic.
- **Momentum Filters**: Uses rising/falling opens and crossovers for label precision, reducing noise.
- **Customizable**: Simple inputs for alert visibility and timeframe inclusion.
**Settings**
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Show Volume Reversal Breaks | False | Enables alerts/labels for CrossClose crosses (cycle reversals). |
| Show Trend Following Breaks | True | Enables alerts for Max/MinVolBreak crosses (trend signals). |
| Use Current Time | False | Includes chart's native TF in multi-TF Max/Min calculations. |
**Alerts**
- **Reversal Alerts** (if enabled): "Volume Reverse Bullish/Bearish Break of " on close crosses of CrossClose.
- **Trend Alerts** (if enabled): "Trend Volume Bullish/Bearish Signal" on close crosses of Max/MinVolBreak; plus notes if prior low/high aligns with levels.
- All alerts include ticker and level value for easy scanning. Use `alert.freq_once_per_bar` to avoid spam.
**Trading Ideas**
- **Bullish Entry**: Green box formation + price holding MinVolBreak + upward arrow on retest box. Target next resistance.
- **Bearish Entry**: Red box + close above MaxVolBreak + red fill activation. Stop below recent low.
- **Cycle Trading**: Watch CrossClose crosses for regime shifts—fade extremes in overextended cycles.
- **Best Timeframes**: 5-30min for intraday; combine with daily for swings. Works best on liquid assets with reliable volume data.
**Limitations & Notes**
- Relies on accurate volume data (e.g., stocks/forex); less effective on low-volume or synthetic instruments.
- Boxes extend rightward but don't auto-delete—monitor for clutter on long histories (max_bars_back=500).
- Some logic (e.g., exact 3-bar retest) is rigid; backtest for your market.
- Open-source under MPL 2.0—fork and tweak as needed!

Ehlers Phasor Analysis (PHASOR)# PHASOR: Phasor Analysis (Ehlers)
## Overview and Purpose
The Phasor Analysis indicator, developed by John Ehlers, represents an advanced cycle analysis tool that identifies the phase of the dominant cycle component in a time series through complex signal processing techniques. This sophisticated indicator uses correlation-based methods to determine the real and imaginary components of the signal, converting them to a continuous phase angle that reveals market cycle progression. Unlike traditional oscillators, the Phasor provides unwrapped phase measurements that accumulate continuously, offering unique insights into market timing and cycle behavior.
## Core Concepts
* **Complex Signal Analysis** — Uses real and imaginary components to determine cycle phase
* **Correlation-Based Detection** — Employs Ehlers' correlation method for robust phase estimation
* **Unwrapped Phase Tracking** — Provides continuous phase accumulation without discontinuities
* **Anti-Regression Logic** — Prevents phase angle from moving backward under specific conditions
Market Applications:
* **Cycle Timing** — Precise identification of cycle peaks and troughs
* **Market Regime Analysis** — Distinguishes between trending and cycling market conditions
* **Turning Point Detection** — Advanced warning system for potential market reversals
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
|-----------|---------|----------|----------------|
| Period | 28 | Fixed cycle period for correlation analysis | Match to expected dominant cycle length |

$$R = \frac{n \sum x_t \cos\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right) - \sum x_t \sum \cos\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right)}{\sqrt{D_{cos}}}$$
Imaginary component correlation with negative sine wave:
$$I = \frac{n \sum x_t \left(-\sin\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right)\right) - \sum x_t \sum \left(-\sin\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right)\right)}{\sqrt{D_{sin}}}$$
where $D_{cos}$ and $D_{sin}$ are normalization denominators.
**Stage 2: Phase Angle Conversion**
$$\theta_{raw} = \begin{cases}
90° - \arctan\left(\frac{I}{R}\right) \cdot \frac{180°}{\pi} & \text{if } R \neq 0 \\
0° & \text{if } R = 0, I > 0 \\
180° & \text{if } R = 0, I \leq 0
\end{cases}$$
**Stage 3: Phase Unwrapping**
$$\theta_{unwrapped}(t) = \theta_{unwrapped}(t-1) + \Delta\theta$$
where $\Delta\theta$ is the normalized phase difference.
**Stage 4: Ehlers' Anti-Regression Condition**
$$\theta_{final}(t) = \begin{cases}
\theta_{final}(t-1) & \text{if regression conditions met} \\
\theta_{unwrapped}(t) & \text{otherwise}
\end{cases}$$
**Derived Calculations:**
Derived Period: $P_{derived} = \frac{360°}{\Delta\theta_{final}}$ (clamped to )
Trend State:
$$S_{trend} = \begin{cases}
1 & \text{if } \Delta\theta \leq 6° \text{ and } |\theta| \geq 90° \\
-1 & \text{if } \Delta\theta \leq 6° \text{ and } |\theta| < 90° \\
0 & \text{if } \Delta\theta > 6°
\end{cases}$$
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The correlation-based approach provides robust phase estimation even in noisy market conditions, while the unwrapping mechanism ensures continuous phase tracking across cycle boundaries.
## Interpretation Details
* **Phasor Angle (Primary Output):**
- **+90°**: Potential cycle peak region
- **0°**: Mid-cycle ascending phase
- **-90°**: Potential cycle trough region
- **±180°**: Mid-cycle descending phase
* **Phase Progression:**
- Continuous upward movement → Normal cycle progression
- Phase stalling → Potential cycle extension or trend development
- Rapid phase changes → Cycle compression or volatility spike
* **Derived Period Analysis:**
- Period < 10 → High-frequency cycle dominance
- Period 15-40 → Typical swing trading cycles
- Period > 50 → Trending market conditions
* **Trend State Variable:**
- **+1**: Long trend conditions (slow phase change in extreme zones)

Fib OscillatorWhat is Fib Oscillator and How to Use it?
🔶 1. Conceptual Overview
The Fib Oscillator is a Fibonacci-based relative position oscillator.
Instead of measuring momentum (like RSI or MACD), it measures where price currently sits between the recent swing high and swing low, expressed as a percentage within the Fibonacci range.
In other words:
It answers: “Where is price right now within its most recent dynamic range?”
It visualizes retracement and extension zones numerically, providing continuous feedback between 0% and 100% (and beyond if extended).
🔶 2. What the Script Does
The indicator:
Automatically detects recent high and low levels using an adaptive lookback window, which depends on ATR volatility.
Calculates the current price’s position between those levels as a percentage (0–100).
Plots that percentage as an oscillator — showing visually whether price is near the top, middle, or bottom of its recent range.
Overlays Fibonacci retracement levels (23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%) as reference zones.
Generates alerts when the oscillator crosses key Fib thresholds — which can signal retracement completion, breakout potential, or pullback exhaustion.
🔶 3. Technical Flow Breakdown
(a) Inputs
Input Description Default Notes
atrLength ATR period used for volatility estimation 14 Used to dynamically tune lookback sensitivity
minLookback Minimum lookback window (candles) 20 Ensures stability even in low volatility
maxLookback Maximum lookback window 100 Limits over-expansion during high volatility
isInverse Inverts chart orientation false Useful for inverse markets (e.g. shorts or inverse BTC view)
(b) Volatility-Adaptive Lookback
Instead of using a fixed lookback, it calculates:
lookback
=
SMA(ATR,10)
/
SMA(Close,10)
×
500
lookback=SMA(ATR,10)/SMA(Close,10)×500
Then it clamps this between minLookback and maxLookback.
This makes the oscillator:
More reactive during high volatility (shorter lookback)
More stable during calm markets (longer lookback)
Essentially, it self-adjusts to market rhythm — you don’t have to constantly tweak lookback manually.
(c) High-Low Reference Points
It takes the highest and lowest points within the dynamic lookback window.
If isInverse = true, it flips the candle logic (useful if viewing inverse instruments like stablecoin pairs or when analyzing bearish setups invertedly).
(d) Oscillator Core
The main oscillator line:
osc
=
(
close
−
low
)
(
high
−
low
)
×
100
osc=
(high−low)
(close−low)
×100
0% = Price is at the lookback low.
100% = Price is at the lookback high.
50% = Midpoint (balanced).
Between Fibonacci percentages (23.6%, 38.2%, 61.8%, etc.), the oscillator indicates retracement stages.
(e) Fibonacci Levels as Reference
It overlays horizontal reference lines at:
0%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%, 100%
These act as support/resistance bands in oscillator space.
You can read it similar to how traders use Fibonacci retracements on charts, but compressed into a single line oscillator.
(f) Alerts
The script includes built-in alert conditions for crossovers at each major Fibonacci level.
You can set TradingView alerts such as:
“Oscillator crossed above 61.8%” → possible bullish continuation or breakout.
“Oscillator crossed below 38.2%” → possible pullback or correction starting.
This allows automated monitoring of fib retracement completions without manually drawing fib levels.
🔶 4. How to Use It
🔸 Visual Interpretation
Oscillator Value Zone Market Context
0–23.6% Deep Retracement Potential exhaustion of a down-move / early reversal
23.6–38.2% Shallow retracement zone Possible continuation phase
38.2–50% Mid retracement Neutral or indecisive structure
50–61.8% Key pivot region Common trend resumption zone
61.8–78.6% Late retracement Often “last pullback” area
78.6–100% Near high range Possible overextension / profit-taking
>100% Range breakout New leg formation / expansion
🔸 Practical Application Steps
Load the indicator on your chart (set overlay = false, so it’s below the main price chart).
Observe oscillator position relative to fib bands:
Use it to determine retracement depth.
Combine with structure tools:
Trend lines, swing points, or HTF market structure.
Use crossovers for timing:
Crossing above 61.8% in an uptrend often confirms breakout continuation.
Crossing below 38.2% in a downtrend signals renewed downside momentum.
For range markets, oscillator swings between 23.6% and 78.6% can define accumulation/distribution boundaries.
🔶 5. When to Use It
During Retracements: To gauge how deep the pullback has gone.
During Range Markets: To identify relative overbought/oversold positions.
Before Breakouts: Crossovers of 61.8% or 78.6% often precede impulsive moves.
In Multi-Timeframe Contexts:
LTF (15M–1H): Detect intraday retracement exhaustion.
HTF (4H–1D): Confirm major range expansions or key reversal zones.
🔶 6. Ideal Companion Indicators
The Fib Oscillator works best when contextualized with structure, volatility, and trend bias indicators.
Below are optimal pairings:
Companion Indicator Purpose Integration Insight
Market Structure MTF Tool Identify active trend direction Use Fib Oscillator only in trend direction for cleaner signals
EMA Ribbon / Supertrend Trend confirmation Align oscillator crossovers with EMA bias
ATR Bands / Volatility Envelope Validate breakout strength If oscillator >78.6% & ATR rising → valid breakout
Volume Oscillator Confirm retracement strength Volume contraction + oscillator under 38.2% → potential reversal
HTF Fib Retracement Tool Combine LTF oscillator with HTF fib confluence Powerful multi-timeframe setups
RSI or Stochastic Measure momentum relative to position RSI divergence while oscillator near 78.6% → exhaustion clue
🔶 7. Understanding the Settings
Setting Function Practical Impact
ATR Period (14) Controls volatility sampling Higher = smoother lookback adaptation
Min Lookback (20) Smallest window allowed Lower = more reactive but noisier
Max Lookback (100) Largest window allowed Higher = smoother but slower to react
Inverse Candle Chart Flips oscillator vertically Useful when analyzing bearish or inverse scenarios (e.g. short-side fib mapping)
Recommended Configs:
For scalping/intraday: ATR 10–14, lookback 20–50
For swing/position trading: ATR 14–21, lookback 50–100
🔶 8. Example Trade Logic (Practical Use)
Scenario: Uptrend on 4H chart
Oscillator drops to below 38.2% → retracement zone
Price consolidates → oscillator stabilizes
Oscillator crosses above 50% → pullback ending
Entry: Long when oscillator crosses above 61.8%
Exit: Near 78.6–100% zone or upon divergence with RSI
For Short Bias (Inverse Setup):
Enable isInverse = true to visually flip the oscillator (so lows become highs).
Use the same thresholds inversely.
🔶 9. Strengths & Limitations
✅ Strengths
Dynamic, self-adapting to volatility
Quantifies Fib retracement as a continuous function
Compact oscillator view (no clutter on chart)
Works well across all timeframes
Compatible with both trending and ranging markets
⚠️ Limitations
Doesn’t define trend direction — must be used with structure filters
Can whipsaw during choppy consolidations
The “lookback auto-adjust” may lag in sudden volatility shifts
Shouldn’t be used standalone for entries without structural confluence
🔶 10. Summary
The “Fib Oscillator” is a dynamic Fibonacci-relative positioning tool that merges retracement theory with adaptive volatility logic.
It gives traders an intuitive, quantified view of where price sits within its recent fib range, allowing anticipation of pullbacks, reversals, or breakout momentum.
Think of it as a "Fibonacci RSI", but instead of momentum strength, it shows positional depth — the vibrational location of price within its natural swing cycle.

PheeTrades - Value Area Levels (VAH / VAL / POC Visualizer)This script helps traders quickly visualize key Volume Profile–style levels such as Value Area High (VAH), Value Area Low (VAL), and Point of Control (POC) using recent price and volume data.
While TradingView’s built-in Volume Profile tool is great for manual analysis, this indicator automatically calculates and plots approximate value zones directly on your chart — ideal for traders who want to identify high-probability support and resistance areas without drawing a fixed range every time.
Features:
Calculates short-term VAH, VAL, and POC based on a user-defined lookback period.
Plots color-coded levels for quick visual reference.
Helps identify “fair value” zones where most trading activity occurred.
Useful for detecting breakout or mean-reversion opportunities around value extremes.
How to use:
Apply the script to any chart and set your preferred lookback period.
VAH (red line): potential upper resistance or overbought zone.
VAL (green line): potential lower support or accumulation zone.
POC (orange line): price level with the highest traded activity — often a magnet for price.
Note:
This is a simplified Value Area model meant for educational and analytical use. It does not replace TradingView’s official Volume Profile or broker-level volume distribution data.
saodisengxiaoyu-lianghua-2.1- This indicator is a modular, signal-building framework designed to generate long and short signals by combining a chosen leading indicator with selectable confirmation filters. It runs on Pine Script version 5, overlays directly on price, and is built to be highly configurable so traders can tailor the signal logic to their market, timeframe, and trading style. It includes a dashboard to visualize which conditions are active and whether they validate a signal, and it outputs clear buy/sell labels and alert conditions so you can automate or monitor trades with confidence.
Core Design
- Leading Indicator: You choose one primary signal generator from a broad list (for example, Range Filter, Supertrend, MACD, RSI, Ichimoku, and many others). This serves as the anchor of the system and determines when a preliminary long or short setup exists.
- Confirmation Filters: You can enable additional filters that validate the leading signal before it becomes actionable. Each “respect…” input toggles a filter on or off. These filters include popular tools like EMA, 2/3 EMA crosses, RQK (Nadaraya Watson), ADX/DMI, Bollinger-based oscillators, MACD variations, QQE, Hull, VWAP, Choppiness Index, Damiani Volatility, and more.
- Signal Expiry: To avoid waiting indefinitely for confirmations, the indicator counts how many consecutive bars the leading condition holds. If confirmations do not align within a defined number of bars, the setup expires. This controls latency and helps reduce late or stale entries.
- Alternating Signals: An optional mode enforces alternation (long must follow short and vice versa), helping avoid repeated entries in the same direction without a meaningful reset.
- Aggregation Logic: The final long/short conditions are formed by combining the leading condition with all selected confirmation filters through logical conjunction. Only if all enabled filters validate the signal (within expiry constraints) does the indicator consider it a confirmed long or short.
- Visualization and Alerts: The script plots buy/sell labels at signal points, provides alert conditions for automation, and displays a compact dashboard summarizing the leading indicator’s status and each confirmation’s pass/fail result using checkmarks.
Leading Indicator Options
- The indicator includes a very large menu of leading tools, each with its own logic to determine uptrend or downtrend impulses. Highlights include:
- Range Filter: Uses a dynamic centerline and bands computed via conditional EMA/SMA and range sizing to define directional movement. It can operate in a default mode or an alternative “DW” mode.
- Rational Quadratic Kernel (RQK): Applies a kernel smoothing model (Nadaraya Watson) to detect uptrends and downtrends with a focus on noise reduction.
- Supertrend, Half Trend, SSL Channel: Classic trend-following tools that derive direction from ATR-based bands or moving average channels.
- Ichimoku Cloud and SuperIchi: Multi-component systems validating trend via cloud position, conversion/base line relationships, projected cloud, and lagging span.
- TSI (True Strength Index), DPO (Detrended Price Oscillator), AO (Awesome Oscillator), MACD, STC (Schaff Trend Cycle), QQE Mod: Momentum and cycle tools that parse direction from crossovers, zero-line behavior, and momentum shifts.
- Donchian Trend Ribbon, Chandelier Exit: Trend and exit tools that can validate breakouts or sustained trend strength.
- ADX/DMI: Measures trend strength and directional movement via +DI/-DI relationships and minimum ADX thresholds.
- RSI and Stochastic: Use crossovers, level exits, or threshold filters to gate entries based on overbought/oversold dynamics or relative strength trends.
- Vortex, Chaikin Money Flow, VWAP, Bull Bear Power, ROC, Wolfpack Id, Hull Suite: A diverse set of directional, momentum, and volume-based indicators to suit different markets and styles.
- Trendline Breakout and Range Detector: Price-behavior filters that confirm signals during breakouts or within defined ranges.
Confirmation Filters
- Each filter is optional. When enabled, it must validate the leading condition for a signal to pass. Examples:
- EMA Filter: Requires price to be above a specified EMA for longs and below for shorts, filtering signals that contradict broader trend or baseline levels.
- 2 EMA Cross and 3 EMA Cross: Enforce moving average cross conditions (fast above slow for long, the reverse for short) or a three-line stacking logic for more stringent trend alignment.
- RQK, Supertrend, Half Trend, Donchian, QQE, Hull, MACD (crossover vs. zero-line), AO (zero line or AC momentum variants), SSL: Each adds its characteristic validation pattern.
- RSI family (MA cross, exits OB/OS zones, threshold levels) plus RSI MA direction and RSI/RSI MA limits: Multiple ways to constrain signals via relative strength behavior and trajectories.
- Choppiness Index and Damiani Volatility: Prevent entries during ranging conditions or insufficient volatility; choppiness thresholds and volatility states gate the trade.
- VWAP, Volume modes (above MA, simple up/down, delta), Chaikin Money Flow: Volume and flow conditions that ensure signals happen in supportive liquidity or accumulation/distribution contexts.
- ADX/DMI thresholds: Demand a minimum trend strength and directional DI alignment to reduce whipsaw trades.
- Trendline Breakout and Range Detector: Confirm that the price is breaking structure or remains within active range consistent with the leading setup.
- By combining several filters you can create strict, conservative entries or looser setups depending on your goals.
Range Filter Engine
- A core building block, the Range Filter uses conditional EMA and SMA functions to compute adaptive bands around a dynamic centerline. It supports two types:
- Type 1: The centerline updates when price exceeds the band thresholds; bands define acceptable drift ranges.
- Type 2: Uses quantized steps (via floor operations) relative to the previous centerline to handle larger moves in discrete increments.
- The engine offers smoothing for range values using a secondary EMA and can switch between raw and averaged outputs. Its hi/lo bands and centerline compose a corridor that defines directional movement and potential breakout confirmation.
Signal Construction
- The script computes:
- leadinglongcond and leadingshortcond : The primary directional signals from the chosen leading indicator.
- longCond and shortCond : Final signals formed by combining the leading conditions with all enabled confirmations. Each confirmation contributes a boolean gate. If a filter is disabled, it contributes a neutral pass-through, keeping the logic intact without enforcing that condition.
- Expiry Logic: The code counts consecutive bars where the leading condition remains true. If confirmations do not line up within the user-defined “Signal Expiry Candle Count,” the setup is abandoned and the signal does not trigger.
- Alternation: An optional state ensures that long and short signals alternate. This can reduce repeated entries in the same direction without a clear reset.
- Finally, longCondition and shortCondition represent the actionable signals after expiry and alternation logic. These drive the label plotting and alert conditions.
Visualization
- Buy and Sell Labels: When longCondition or shortCondition confirm, the script plots annotated labels directly on the chart, making entries easy to see at a glance. The labels use color coding and clear text tags (“long” vs. “short”).
- Dashboard: A table summarizes the status of the leading indicator and all confirmations. Each row shows the indicator label and whether it passed (✔️) or failed (❌) on the current bar. This intensely practical UI helps you diagnose why a signal did or did not trigger, empowering faster strategy iteration and parameter tuning.
- Failed Confirmation Markers: If a setup expires (count exceeds the limit) and confirmations failed to align, the script can mark the chart with a small label and provide a tooltip listing which confirmations did not pass. It’s a helpful audit trail to understand missed trades or prevent “chasing” invalid signals.
- Data Window Values: The script outputs signal states to the data window, which can be useful for debugging or building composite conditions in multi-indicator templates.
Inputs and Parameters
- You control the indicator from a comprehensive input panel:
- Setup: Signal expiry count, whether to enforce alternating signals, and whether to display labels and the dashboard (including position and size).
- Leading Indicator: Choose the primary signal generator from the large list.
- Per-Filter Toggles: For each confirmation, a respect... toggle enables or disables it. Many include sub-options (like MACD type, Stochastic mode, RSI mode, ADX variants, thresholds for choppiness/volatility, etc.) to fine-tune behavior.
- Range Filter Settings: Choose type and behavior; select default vs. DW mode and smoothing. The underlying functions adjust band sizes using ATR, average change, standard deviation, or user-defined scales.
- Because everything is customizable, you can adapt the indicator to different assets, volatility regimes, and timeframes.
Alerts and Automation
- The script defines alert conditions tied to longCondition and shortCondition . You can set these alerts in your chart to trigger notifications or webhook calls for automated execution in external bots. The alert text is simple, and you can configure your own message template when creating alerts in the chart, including JSON payloads for algorithmic integration.
Typical Workflow
- Select a Leading Indicator aligned with your style. For trend following, Supertrend or SSL may be appropriate; for momentum, MACD or TSI; for range/trend-change detection, Range Filter, RQK, or Donchian.
- Add a few key Confirmation Filters that complement the leading signal. For example:
- Pair Supertrend with EMA Filter and RSI MA Direction to ensure trend alignment and positive momentum.
- Combine MACD Crossover with ADX/DMI and Volume Above MA to avoid signals in low-trend or low-liquidity conditions.
- Use RQK with Choppiness Index and Damiani Volatility to only act when the market is trending and volatile enough.
- Set a sensible Signal Expiry Candle Count. Shorter expiry keeps entries timely and reduces lag; longer expiry captures setups that mature slowly.
- Observe the Dashboard during live markets to see which filters pass or fail, then iterate. Tighten or loosen thresholds and filter combinations as needed.
- For automation, turn on alerts for the final conditions and use webhook payloads to notify your trading robot.
Strengths and Practical Notes
- Flexibility: The indicator is a toolkit rather than a single rigid model. It lets you test different combinations rapidly and visualize outcomes immediately.
- Clarity: Labels, dashboard, and failed-confirmation markers make it easy to audit behavior and refine settings without digging into code.
- Robustness: The expiry and alternation options add discipline, avoiding the temptation to enter late or repeatedly in one direction without a reset.
- Modular Design: The logical gates (“respect…”) make the behavior transparent: if a filter is on, it must pass; if it’s off, the signal ignores it. This keeps reasoning clean.
- Avoiding Overfitting: Because you can stack many filters, it’s tempting to over-constrain signals. Start simple (one leading indicator and one or two confirmations). Add complexity only if it demonstrably improves your edge across varied market regimes.
Limitations and Recommendations
- No single configuration is universally optimal. Markets change; tune filters for the instrument and timeframe you trade and revisit settings periodically.
- Trend filters can underperform in choppy markets; likewise, momentum filters can false-trigger in quiet periods. Consider using Choppiness Index or Damiani to gate signals by regime.
- Use expiry wisely. Too short may miss good setups that need a few bars to confirm; too long may cause late entries. Balance responsiveness and accuracy.
- Always consider risk management externally (position sizing, stops, profit targets). The indicator focuses on signal quality; combining it with robust trade management methods will improve results.
Example Configurations
- Trend-Following Setup:
- Leading: Supertrend uptrend for longs and downtrend for shorts.
- Confirmations: EMA Filter (price above 200 EMA for long, below for short), ADX/DMI (trend strength above threshold with +DI/-DI alignment), Volume Above MA.
- Expiry: 3–4 bars to keep entries timely.
- Result: Strong bias toward sustained moves while avoiding weak trends and thin liquidity.
- Mean-Reversion to Momentum Crossover:
- Leading: RSI exits from OB/OS zones (e.g., RSI leaves oversold for long and leaves overbought for short).
- Confirmations: 2 EMA Cross (fast crossing slow in the same direction), MACD zero-line behavior for added momentum validation.
- Expiry: 2–3 bars for responsive re-entry.
- Result: Captures momentum transitions after short-term extremes, with extra confirmation to reduce head-fakes.
- Range Breakout Focus:
- Leading: Range Filter Type 2 or Donchian Trend Ribbon to detect breakouts.
- Confirmations: Damiani Volatility (avoid low-volatility false breaks), Choppiness Index (prefer trend-ready states), ROC positive/negative threshold.
- Expiry: 1–3 bars to act on breakout windows.
- Result: Better alignment to breakout dynamics, gating trades by volatility and regime.
Conclusion
- This indicator is a comprehensive, configurable framework that merges a chosen leading signal with an array of corroborating filters, disciplined expiry handling, and intuitive visualization. It’s designed to help you build high-quality entry signals tailored to your approach, whether that’s trend-following, breakout trading, momentum capturing, or a hybrid. By surfacing pass/fail states in a dashboard and allowing alert-based automation, it bridges the gap between discretionary analysis and systematic execution. With sensible parameter tuning and thoughtful filter selection, it can serve as a robust backbone for signal generation across diverse instruments and timeframes.
