OBV & AD Oscillators with Dual Smoothing Options

Overlaid into 1 and then some,
Now it is an oscillator!
3 customizable moving average types
- Ehlers Deviation Scaled Moving Average
- Volatility Dynamic Moving Average
- Simple Moving Average
Each with customizable periods
And with the ability to overlay a second set too
Default Settings have a longer period MA of 377 using Ehlers DSMA to better capture the standard view of OBV and A/D.
An extra overlay of a shorter period using a Volatility DMA uses Average True Range with its own custom settings, seeks to act more as an RSI
Slow‑flow backbone
Long‑period Accumulation/Distribution and Volume‑Price Trend are detrended with a 377‑period Ehlers DSMA; only the distance from those means is displayed.
The slope of these curves is read as underlying sponsorship: twin rises imply persistent bid absorption, twin descents reveal sustained offer pressure.
Absolute levels are disregarded—direction and rate of change carry the information.
Momentum half‑plane
RSI is applied to OBV and CDV.
Values below 50 designate market energy clustered on the underside (oversold field); values above 50 mark crowding on the topside (overbought field).
This binary gate prevents entries into stretched flows while retaining freedom to act anywhere within the chosen half‑plane.
Additional RSIs (AD, VPT, MFI) can be toggled on for broader consensus.
Jerk ignition
The second derivative of OBV and CDV—jerk—isolates the bar where aggressive activity abruptly escalates.
Whenever jerk exceeds an adaptive 80‑percentile threshold the background flashes:
Green / red for raw buy‑ or sell‑side acceleration,
Electric‑blue when a buy‑side spike aligns with the oversold half‑plane,
Hot‑orange when a sell‑side spike aligns with the overbought half‑plane.
These coloured pulses emulate the “sweep” seen on a true tick tape
Power‑jerk
Either OBV or CDV shows a 2nd‑derivative spike above its 80‑percentile band.
Both flows agree
OBV‑jerk and CDV‑jerk must be the same sign (both buy or both sell).
Tape is alive
Relative‑volume > 1.3 × median and ATR‑rank > 25 %.
(Skips thin or flat bars.)
Price proves it
Same bar closes 1 tick beyond the jerk‑bar high (long) or low (short).
If all four pass—plus a 5‑bar cool‑down—the background paints:
Blue → long trigger
Orange → short trigger
No blue/orange = no setup; green/red shading = raw jerk only.
