The indicator will calculate the selected average "MA Mode" of (close-open). To standardize this result and ensure any filters/thresholds do not need to be recalculated for each instrument the result will be used to calculate the Z Score.
The idea is that when candle bodies are small there is very little actual price movement, and therefore price is choppy. When considering the Z Score of that result, any outliers ie larger candle bodies, could show a potential trend forming. This indicator is similar to QStick but allows more customization by the user.
MA Mode determines which MA is used to smooth the results of (close-open)
Price Smoothing is the number of running periods the MA Mode is calculated for.
The three Thresholds are preset to the 90%, 95%, and 99% levels for Z Score. If these thresholds are altered you may wish to also alter the horizontal lines programmed for each level on the positive and negative sides.
The Z Length is the period for which the Z Score is calculated

As always, trade at your own risk.
Threshold 1 will alert if price breaches Threshold 1 but not Threshold 2
Threshold 2 will alert if price breaches Threshold 2 but not Threshold 3
Threshold 3 will alert if price is greater than Threshold 3
You may program these for LONG and SHORT price movements. Note: you MUST set the Threshold levels PRIOR to setting the alert.
Strongly recommend selecting "ONCE PER BAR CLOSE" as price may move the indicator while the candle is open above or below the threshold as the calculation is based on CLOSE price.
You will likely receive a "REPAINTER" alert. After reviewing the PineScript repainter information this is likely due to the fact EMAs are used within the calculation. I have not noticed the indicator changing previously recorded data EXCEPT for the OPEN candle (which is normal when close price is utilized).
Utilize all 6 or 1, whatever works best for your system.
As always, trade at your own risk.
