Volume Weighted Average Price Dynamic Slope [sgbpulse]VWAP Dynamic Slope: A Comprehensive Indicator for Trend Identification and Smart Trading
Introducing VWAP Dynamic Slope, an innovative TradingView indicator that harnesses the power of Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and enhances it with immediate visual feedback. The indicator colors the VWAP line based on its slope, allowing you to quickly and easily identify the direction and strength of the current trend for the asset, providing advanced tools for in-depth analysis.
What is VWAP and Why is it so Important?
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) is an indicator that represents the average price at which an asset has traded, weighted by the volume traded at each price level. Unlike a simple moving average, VWAP gives greater weight to trades executed with high volume, making it a reliable measure of the asset's "true" or "fair" price within a given period. Many institutional traders use VWAP as a central reference point for evaluating the effectiveness of entries and exits. An asset trading above its VWAP is considered to have bullish momentum, and below it – bearish momentum.
How it Works: Dynamic VWAP Slope Analysis
VWAP Dynamic Slope analyzes the inclination of the VWAP line and displays it using an intuitive color scheme:
Positive Slope (Uptrend): When the VWAP points upwards, signaling positive momentum, the default color will be green.
Negative Slope (Downtrend): When the VWAP points downwards, signaling negative momentum, the default color will be orange.
Trend Change (CHG): When a change in the VWAP's trend direction occurs, a "CHG" label will be displayed. The label's color will be green if the change is to an uptrend, and orange if the change is to a downtrend.
Identifying Steep Slopes for Increased Momentum:
The indicator's uniqueness lies in its ability to identify "steep" slopes – rapid and particularly strong changes in the VWAP's direction. This indicates exceptionally strong momentum:
Steep Positive Slope: The VWAP color will change to dark green, indicating significant buying pressure.
Steep Negative Slope: The VWAP color will change to dark red, indicating significant selling pressure.
Dynamic Momentum Strength Label: In situations of steep slope (positive or negative), a dynamic label will be displayed with the change value of the VWAP at that point. This label allows you to monitor momentum strength, intensification, or weakening in real-time.
Advanced Analytical Tools for Complete Control
VWAP Dynamic Slope provides you with unprecedented flexibility through a variety of customizable tools:
Multiple VWAP Anchors and Visual Marking:
Common Time Anchors: Choose whether the VWAP resets at the beginning of each Session (daily), Week, Month, Quarter, Year, Decade, or Century.
Advanced Intraday Anchors: Within the Session, you can choose to calculate VWAP specifically for Pre-Market, Regular Hours, and Post-Market hours. This option is particularly crucial for intraday traders.
Important Event Anchors: The indicator allows for VWAP resets at significant milestones such as Earnings, Dividends, and Splits, for analyzing the market's immediate reaction.
Visual Anchor Marking: To enhance clarity and orientation, a Label ⚓ can be displayed at each selected anchor point, helping to immediately identify the start point of the VWAP calculation in the chosen context.
Customizable Bands (Up to Three on Each Side):
Add up to three Bands above and below the VWAP to identify areas of deviation and excursion from the average price. You have two calculation options:
Standard Deviation: Based on volatility and statistical distance from the VWAP.
Percentage: Defines fixed percentage-based bands from the VWAP.
Key Pre-Market Levels (Pre-Market High/Low):
Display the Pre-Market High and Low levels as separate lines on the chart. These lines often serve as important psychological support and resistance zones, allowing you to see how the VWAP behaves near them.
Full Customization and Precise Control:
VWAP Source Selection: Determine which price data type will be used for the VWAP calculation. The default is HLC3 (average of High, Low, and Close), but any other relevant data source available in TradingView can be selected.
Offset: Set an offset for the VWAP line, allowing you to shift it left or right on the time axis by a chosen number of bars.
Customizable Colors: Choose your preferred colors for each slope state, Pre-Market High/Low lines, and Bands.
Setting the "Steepness" Threshold (Per-mille Price Change Per Minute ‱/min with Auto-Adjustment): Determine the sensitivity for identifying a steep slope by setting the required change threshold in VWAP in terms of per-mille price change per minute (‱/min). The indicator performs smart adjustment for any timeframe you select on the chart (e.g., 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.), ensuring that the "steepness" setting maintains consistency and relevance.
Examples for Setting the Steepness Threshold:
Suppose you set the steepness threshold to 0.3‱/min (per-mille price change per minute).
On a 30-second chart: The indicator will check if the VWAP changed by 0.15 ‱/min (half of the per-minute threshold) within a single bar. If so, the slope will be considered steep. Explanation: Since 30 seconds is half a minute, the indicator looks for a change that is half of the threshold set for a full minute.
On a 1-minute chart: The indicator will check if the VWAP changed by 0.3 ‱/min (the full per-minute threshold) within a single bar. If so, the slope will be considered steep. Explanation: Here, the bar represents a full minute, so we check the full threshold.
On a 5-minute chart: The indicator will check if the VWAP changed by 1.5 ‱/min (5 times the per-minute threshold) within a single bar. If so, the slope will be considered steep. Explanation: A 5-minute bar contains 5 minutes, so the cumulative change in VWAP needs to be 5 times greater to be considered "steep" on the same scale.
In summary, this setting allows you to precisely and uniformly control the sensitivity of steep slope detection across all timeframes, providing immense flexibility in analyzing the asset's momentum.
Advantages of Using Per-mille Price Change Per Minute (‱/min)
Using per-mille price change per minute (‱/min) offers several key advantages for your indicator:
Normalized and Objective Measurement: It provides a uniform scale for the VWAP's rate of change, regardless of the asset's price or nominal value. A 0.1 per-mille change per minute always carries the same relative significance.
Comparison Across Different Asset Prices: Using per-mille allows for direct comparison of VWAP movement strength between assets trading at very different prices (e.g., a $100 asset versus a $1 asset), enabling an understanding of true momentum without bias from the nominal price.
Smart Timeframe Agnostic Adjustment: This is a critical capability. The indicator automatically adjusts the per-mille per minute threshold you set to any chart timeframe (30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, etc.), maintaining consistency in "steepness" detection without manual recalibration.
Precise Momentum Identification: This measurement precisely identifies when the VWAP's rate of change becomes significant, and when momentum strengthens or weakens, contributing to more informed trading decisions.
In short, per-mille change per minute (‱/min) provides accuracy, consistency, and flexibility in identifying VWAP momentum changes, with smart adaptation across all timeframes.
Who is this Indicator For?
VWAP Dynamic Slope is a powerful tool for:
Intraday Traders: For quick identification of intraday trend directions and momentum across any timeframe, with specific consideration for Pre-Market, Regular Hours, or Post-Market VWAP, and incorporating key pre-market levels.

Squeeze Vector Regression - SciQua.com📊 Squeeze Vector Regression (SVR) — SciQua.com
A precision breakout-momentum analysis tool for adaptable trading strategies (Invite-Only)
sciqua.com
🔍 What Is the SVR Indicator?
Description:
Squeeze Vector Regression (SVR) is a proprietary trading indicator that detects low-volatility “squeeze” conditions and anticipates breakouts using a regression-based momentum engine. It is designed to help traders identify high-probability moments when markets are transitioning from compression to expansion, and more importantly, forecast the likely direction of the move.
This tool builds on classic concepts like the Bollinger Band/Keltner Channel squeeze but introduces a novel approach: vector-based momentum regression, paired with adaptive angle normalization and dynamically colored histograms. The result is a highly visual signal set that not only marks when a squeeze is building or releasing but also uses directional cues to aid in decision-making.
The Squeeze Vector Regression (SVR) is a powerful tool that detects volatility squeezes and helps gauge breakout momentum . It blends:
Volatility analysis using Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC)
Momentum slope estimation using regression angle analysis
Dynamic visuals: background gradients and color-coded momentum lines
Custom thresholds and lookbacks for fine-tuned strategy fit
🔄 What Is a Squeeze?
A squeeze forms when Bollinger Bands (BB) are fully contained within Keltner Channels (KC) .
Squeeze On : BB inside KC → Low volatility / compression phase
Squeeze Off : BB breaks KC → Breakout begins
This often precedes explosive moves in price action. SVR adds visual and statistical strength mapping to this condition.
📐 Momentum Vector: Angle-Based Regression
SVR calculates a regression slope angle from price relative to:
VWMA
ATR or Range zones (adjustable)
Peak/valley structures
The angle is displayed as a colored momentum line :
Red = Bearish slope (angle < 0)
Green = Bullish slope (angle > 0)
Color intensity = slope strength

🧠 How to Use SVR Effectively
Scenario: Swing trader identifying momentum breakouts on 4-hour chart.
Wait for yellow background (Squeeze ON) to persist → Consolidation phase.
Look for orange background shift (Squeeze OFF) → Volatility breakout signal.
Check if momentum line shifts from red to green → Confirms bullish vector.
If confirmed, enter long on breakout candle or retrace with tight stop.
Monitor momentum gradient: Fading green = momentum loss, prepare to exit.
🔧 Configure for Strategy Styles
Breakout Traders:
Raise Squeeze OFF Threshold to filter noise
Use momentum line for directional confirmation
Look for large orange backgrounds and steep green slopes

Dynamic Laguerre Filter Bands | OttoThis indicator combines trend-following and volatility analysis by enhancing the traditional Laguerre filter with a dynamic, volatility-adjusted band system. Instead of using fixed thresholds, the bands adapt in real-time to changing market conditions by applying smoothed standard deviation calculations. This design keeps the indicator responsive to significant price movements while effectively filtering out short-term market noise, resulting in more accurate trend identification and breakout signals.
Core Concept
The indicator is built around the following key components:
Laguerre Filter:
The Laguerre filter is designed to smooth out price data by reducing market noise while still being quick enough to detect real changes in price direction. Its goal is to create a clear, smooth trend line that helps traders/investors focus on the overall market trend without getting distracted by small, random price swings.
It uses a parameter called gamma to control how it balances smoothness and responsiveness:
A lower gamma gives more weight to recent price data, making the filter react faster to new price changes. This means the trend line is more sensitive but may also be less smooth and more prone to small fluctuations.
A higher gamma gives more weight to past price data, making the filter smoother and less sensitive to quick changes. This helps reduce noise and produces a steadier trend line, but it also introduces more lag, meaning the filter reacts slower to new price moves.
By adjusting gamma, the Laguerre filter lets you choose the balance between following price changes quickly and having a stable, noise-free trend signal.
Standard Deviation:
shows how much price varies from the mean. In this indicator, it’s used to measure market volatility.
Volatility Bands: The upper and lower bands are based on an EMA-smoothed standard deviation of price. The EMA reduces sudden jumps in volatility, creating smoother and more stable bands that still respond to changing market conditions. These bands are plotted around the Laguerre filter line, expanding and contracting in a controlled way to stay aligned with real market movement while avoiding short-term noise.
Signal Logic:
A long signal is triggered when the close price crosses above the upper band.
A short signal occurs when the close price falls below the lower band.
⚙️ Inputs
Source: Price source used in calculations
Gamma: Adjusts how much the Laguerre filter responds to price changes. Lower gamma values make the filter react more to recent prices, while higher values give more influence to older data, making the line smoother but slower to respond.
Volatility Length: Period used to calculate standard deviation
Volatility Smoothing Length: EMA smoothing length for standard deviation
Multiplier: Scales the width of the bands based on volatility
📈 Visual Output
Laguerre Filter Line: Plots the laguerre filter line, colored dynamically based on signal direction (green for bullish, purple for bearish)
Upper & Lower Bands: Volatility-based bands that adjust with market conditions. (green for bullish, purple for bearish)
Glow Effect: Optional glow layer to enhance visibility of the laguerre filter trend line (green for bullish, purple for bearish)
Bar Coloring: Candlesticks and bar colors reflect the active signal state for fast visual interpretation (green for bullish, purple for bearish)
How to Use
Apply the indicator to your chart and monitor for signal events:
Long Signal: When price closes above the upper band
Short Signal: When price closes below the lower band
🔔 Alerts
This indicator supports optional alert conditions you can enable for:
Long Signal: Close price crossing above the upper band
Short Signal: Close price crossing below the lower band

Dynamic Flow Ribbons [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
A dynamic multi-band trend visualization system that adapts to market volatility and reveals trend momentum with layered ribbon channels.
Dynamic Flow Ribbons transforms price action into flowing trend bands that expand and contract with volatility. It not only shows the active directional bias but also visualizes how strong or weak the trend is through layered ribbons, making it easier to assess trend quality and structure.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Uses an adaptive trend detection system built on a volatility envelope derived from an EMA of the average price (HLC3).
Measures volatility using a long-period average of the high-low range, which scales the envelope width dynamically.
Trend direction flips when the average price crosses above or below these envelopes.
Ribbons form around the trend line to show how far price is stretching or compressing relative to the mean.
🔵 FEATURES
Volatility-Based Trend Line:
A thick, color-coded line tracks the current trend with smoother transitions between phases.
Multi-Layered Flow Ribbons:
Up to 10 bands (5 above and 5 below) radiate outward from the upper and lower envelopes, reflecting volatility strength and direction.
Trend Coloring & Transitions:
Ribbons and candles are dynamically colored based on trend direction— green for bullish , orange for bearish . Transparency fades with distance from the core trend band.
Real-Time Responsiveness:
Ribbon structure and trend shifts update in real time, adapting instantly to fast market changes.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the color and thickness of the core trend line to follow directional bias.
When ribbons widen symmetrically, it signals strong trend momentum .
Narrowing or overlapping ribbons can suggest consolidation or transition zones .
Combine with breakout systems or volume tools to confirm impulsive or corrective phases .
Adjust the “Length” (factor) input to tune sensitivity—higher values smooth trends more.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Dynamic Flow Ribbons offers a sleek and insightful view into trend strength and structure. By visualizing volatility expansion with directional flow, it becomes a powerful overlay for momentum traders, swing strategists, and trend followers who want to stay ahead of evolving market flows
Price Imbalance Flow Tracker (PIFT)Price Imbalance Flow Tracker (PIFT)
PIFT is a visual volatility and structure indicator that maps market imbalance zones using dynamic envelope logic. It plots three sets of envelope bands derived from different moving averages — short, medium, and long — with volatility-based offsets scaled by ATR. These envelopes adapt in real time to reflect momentum expansion, compression, and directional pressure.
- The system highlights only the dominant envelope layer at any given moment (short cancels medium/long, medium cancels long) to reduce clutter and help you focus on the most reactive structure.
- There’s also a central yellow zone representing the core trend channel — a tighter band derived from the short MA, helping you track price containment and breakout zones.
- The green and red fills show where price is expanding beyond core levels, acting as pressure zones. These fills compress during consolidations and widen during impulse moves, giving you a clean read on momentum shifts.
You can toggle:
- Full grid view (all envelopes)
- Core channel only
- Price tracks (moving averages)
- Dynamic pressure zones
Use PIFT to:
- Identify clean trend continuation inside the yellow zone
- Spot momentum exhaustion when price rides the outer bands
- Filter false moves when fills contract but price keeps drifting
- See structure shifts before standard indicators like Bollinger Bands react
This isn’t just another moving average overlay. It’s a dynamic envelope hierarchy built for traders who want to read price flow — not just lagging trend direction.

RSI-Adaptive T3 [ChartPrime]The RSI-Adaptive T3 is a precision trend-following tool built around the legendary T3 smoothing algorithm developed by Tim Tillson , designed to enhance responsiveness while reducing lag compared to traditional moving averages. Current implementation takes it a step further by dynamically adapting the smoothing length based on real-time RSI conditions — allowing the T3 to “breathe” with market volatility. This dynamic length makes the curve faster in trending moves and smoother during consolidations.
To help traders visualize volatility and directional momentum, adaptive volatility bands are plotted around the T3 line, with visual crossover markers and a dynamic info panel on the chart. It’s ideal for identifying trend shifts, spotting momentum surges, and adapting strategy execution to the pace of the market.
HOIW IT WORKS
At its core, this indicator fuses two ideas:
The T3 Moving Average — a 6-stage recursively smoothed exponential average created by Tim Tillson , designed to reduce lag without sacrificing smoothness. It uses a volume factor to control curvature.
A Dynamic Length Engine — powered by the RSI. When RSI is low (market oversold), the T3 becomes shorter and more reactive. When RSI is high (overbought), the T3 becomes longer and smoother. This creates a feedback loop between price momentum and trend sensitivity.
// Step 1: Adaptive length via RSI
rsi = ta.rsi(src, rsiLen)
rsi_scale = 1 - rsi / 100
len = math.round(minLen + (maxLen - minLen) * rsi_scale)
pine_ema(src, length) =>
alpha = 2 / (length + 1)
sum = 0.0
sum := na(sum ) ? src : alpha * src + (1 - alpha) * nz(sum )
sum
// Step 2: T3 with adaptive length
e1 = pine_ema(src, len)
e2 = pine_ema(e1, len)
e3 = pine_ema(e2, len)
e4 = pine_ema(e3, len)
e5 = pine_ema(e4, len)
e6 = pine_ema(e5, len)
c1 = -v * v * v
c2 = 3 * v * v + 3 * v * v * v
c3 = -6 * v * v - 3 * v - 3 * v * v * v
c4 = 1 + 3 * v + v * v * v + 3 * v * v
t3 = c1 * e6 + c2 * e5 + c3 * e4 + c4 * e3
The result: an evolving trend line that adapts to market tempo in real-time.
KEY FEATURES
⯁ RSI-Based Adaptive Smoothing
The length of the T3 calculation dynamically adjusts between a Min Length and Max Length , based on the current RSI.
When RSI is low → the T3 shortens, tracking reversals faster.
When RSI is high → the T3 stretches, filtering out noise during euphoria phases.
Displayed length is shown in a floating table, colored on a gradient between min/max values.
⯁ T3 Calculation (Tim Tillson Method)
The script uses a 6-stage EMA cascade with a customizable Volume Factor (v) , as designed by Tillson (1998) .
Formula:
T3 = c1 * e6 + c2 * e5 + c3 * e4 + c4 * e3
This technique gives smoother yet faster curves than EMAs or DEMA/Triple EMA.
⯁ Visual Trend Direction & Transitions
The T3 line changes color dynamically:
Color Up (default: blue) → bullish curvature
Color Down (default: orange) → bearish curvature
Plot fill between T3 and delayed T3 creates a gradient ribbon to show momentum expansion/contraction.
Directional shift markers (“🞛”) are plotted when T3 crosses its own delayed value — helping traders spot trend flips or pullback entries.
⯁ Adaptive Volatility Bands
Optional upper/lower bands are plotted around the T3 line using a user-defined volatility window (default: 100).
Bands widen when volatility rises, and contract during compression — similar to Bollinger logic but centered on the adaptive T3.
Shaded band zones help frame breakout setups or mean-reversion zones.
⯁ Dynamic Info Table
A live stats panel shows:
Current adaptive length
Maximum smoothing (▲ MaxLen)
Minimum smoothing (▼ MinLen)
All values update in real time and are color-coded to match trend direction.
HOW TO USE
Use T3 crossovers to detect trend transitions, especially during periods of volatility compression.
Watch for volatility contraction in the bands — breakouts from narrow band periods often precede trend bursts.
The adaptive smoothing length can also be used to assess current market tempo — tighter = faster; wider = slower.
CONCLUSION
RSI-Adaptive T3 modernizes one of the most elegant smoothing algorithms in technical analysis with intelligent RSI responsiveness and built-in volatility bands. It gives traders a cleaner read on trend health, directional shifts, and expansion dynamics — all in a visually efficient package. Perfect for scalpers, swing traders, and algorithmic modelers alike, it delivers advanced logic in a plug-and-play format.
Commodity Trend Reactor [BigBeluga]
🔵 OVERVIEW
A dynamic trend-following oscillator built around the classic CCI, enhanced with intelligent price tracking and reversal signals.
Commodity Trend Reactor extends the traditional Commodity Channel Index (CCI) by integrating trend-trailing logic and reactive reversal markers. It visualizes trend direction using a trailing stop system and highlights potential exhaustion zones when CCI exceeds extreme thresholds. This dual-level system makes it ideal for both trend confirmation and mean-reversion alerts.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Based on the CCI (Commodity Channel Index) oscillator, which measures deviation from the average price.
Trend bias is determined by whether CCI is above or below user-defined thresholds.
Trailing price bands are used to lock in trend direction visually on the main chart.
Extreme values beyond ±200 are treated as potential reversal zones.
🔵 FEATURES\
CCI-Based Trend Shifts:
Triggers a bullish bias when CCI crosses above the upper threshold, and bearish when it crosses below the lower threshold.
Adaptive Trailing Stops:
In bullish mode, a trailing stop tracks the lowest price; in bearish mode, it tracks the highest.
Top & Bottom Markers:
When CCI surpasses +200 or drops below -200, it plots colored squares both on the oscillator and on price, marking potential reversal zones.
Background Highlights:
Each time a trend shift occurs, the background is softly colored (lime for bullish, orange for bearish) to highlight the change.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the oscillator to monitor when CCI crosses above or below threshold values to detect trend activation.
Enter trades in the direction of the trailing band once the trend bias is confirmed.
Watch for +200 and -200 square markers as warnings of potential mean reversals.
Use trailing stop areas as dynamic support/resistance to manage stop loss and exit strategies.
The background color changes offer clean confirmation of trend transitions on chart.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Commodity Trend Reactor transforms the simple CCI into a complete trend-reactive framework. With real-time trailing logic and clear reversal alerts, it serves both momentum traders and contrarian scalpers alike. Whether you’re trading breakouts or anticipating mean reversions, this indicator provides clarity and structure to your decision-making.

With the included default settings, TRX behaves like an evolved Bollinger Band system — based on True Range candle structure, not just close price and standard deviation.
----------------------------------------------------
🔄 How to Zero Out the Bands (for Minimalist Use):
Want just candles? A clean MA? Single band? You got it.
➤ Use TRX like a clean moving average:
• Set ATR Multiplier to 0
• Set both Band ATR Adjustments to 0
• Leave the Basis Line ON or OFF — your call
➤ Show only candles (no bands at all):
• Turn off "Show High/Low MAs"
• Turn off Basis Line
➤ Single-line ceiling or floor tracking:
• Set one band’s Transparency to 100
• Use the remaining band as a price envelope or support/resistance guide
----------------------------------------------------
🧬 Notes:
TRX can be made:
• Spiky or silky (via smoothing & ATR)
• Wide or tight (via multipliers)
• Subtle or aggressive (via color/transparency)
• Clean as a compass or dirty as a chaos meter

Volume Flow OscillatorVolume Flow Oscillator
Overview
The Volume Flow Oscillator is an advanced technical analysis tool that measures buying and selling pressure by combining price direction with volume. Unlike traditional volume indicators, this oscillator reveals the force behind price movements, helping traders identify strong trends, potential reversals, and divergences between price and volume.
Reading the Indicator
The oscillator displays seven colored bands that fluctuate around a zero line:
Three bands above zero (yellow) indicate increasing levels of buying pressure
Three bands below zero (red) indicate increasing levels of selling pressure
The central band represents the baseline volume flow
Color intensity changes based on whether values are positive or negative
Trading Signals
The Volume Flow Oscillator provides several valuable trading signals:
Zero-line crossovers: When multiple bands cross from negative to positive, potential bullish shift; opposite for bearish
Divergences: When price makes new highs/lows but oscillator bands fail to confirm, signals potential reversal
Volume climax: Extreme readings where outer bands stretch far from zero often precede reversals
Trend confirmation: Strong expansion of bands in direction of price movement confirms genuine momentum
Support/resistance: During trends, bands may remain largely on one side of zero, showing continued directional pressure
Customization
Adjust these key parameters to optimize the oscillator for your trading style:
Lookback Length: Controls overall sensitivity (shorter = more responsive, longer = smoother)
Multipliers: Adjust sensitivity spread between bands for different market conditions
ALMA Settings: Fine-tune how the indicator weights recent versus historical data
VWMA Toggle: Enable for additional smoothing in volatile markets
Best Practices
For optimal results, use this oscillator in conjunction with price action and other confirmation indicators. The multi-band approach helps distinguish between minor fluctuations and significant volume events that might signal important market turns.
PolyBand Convergence System (PBCS)PolyBand Convergence System (PBCS)
The PolyBand Convergence System (PBCS) is an advanced technical analysis indicator that combines multiple polynomial regressions with statistical bands to identify trend strength and potential reversal zones.
Key Features
Multi-Degree Polynomial Analysis: Combines 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th degree polynomial regressions into a composite regression line
Adaptive Statistical Bands: Uses percentile-based bands enhanced with standard deviation multipliers
Asymmetric Volatility Measurement: Separately calculates upside and downside volatility for more accurate band placement
Smart Trend Detection: Identifies bullish, bearish, or neutral market conditions based on price position relative to bands
How It Works
PBCS creates a composite regression line from multiple polynomial fits to better capture the underlying price structure. This line is then surrounded by adaptive bands that represent statistical thresholds for price movement. When price breaks above the upper band, a bullish trend is signaled; when it breaks below the lower band, a bearish trend is indicated.
Customization Options
Regression Settings: Adjust source data, lookback period, and smoothing parameters
Percentile Controls: Fine-tune the statistical thresholds for upper and lower bands
Volatility Sensitivity: Modify standard deviation multipliers to control band width
Visual Preferences: Choose from multiple color schemes to match your trading platform

█ SETTING UP ALERTS
The Mean Reversion Bundle comes with several pre-configured alert conditions to notify you of potential trading opportunities. To set up an alert:
Click the " Alert " button (clock icon) on TradingView's right-hand toolbar or top panel.
In the " Condition " dropdown, select " Mean Reversion Bundle ".
A second dropdown will appear, allowing you to choose from the specific alert conditions built into the script (e.g., " Price Crossover (Fast MA) ", " Bullish RSI Divergence ", " Lower Bollinger Band Recovery ").
You can also create more complex alerts by selecting one of the indicator's plotted lines (e.g., " RSI ", " Stochastic %K ", " Bollinger Band Basis ") in the first condition box, then choosing a comparison (e.g., " Crossing Down ", " Greater Than "), and then selecting another value or plotted line from the indicator in the third box.
Choose your preferred " Trigger " option:
- " Only Once ": The alert triggers the first time the condition is met, even on an unclosed (intra-bar) candle. The alert then deactivates.
- " Once Per Bar Close ": (Recommended for most mean reversion signals) The alert triggers only after the current bar closes if the condition was true on that closed bar. This ensures signals are based on confirmed price action and allows the alert to re-trigger on subsequent bars if the condition remains true.
- Other options like " Once Per Bar " or " Once Per Minute " are also available for different needs.
Customize the alert name, message, and notification preferences.
Click " Create ".
█ STRATEGY EXAMPLES
The following examples are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how indicators in this bundle can be combined for mean reversion strategies. They are not financial advice. Always conduct thorough backtesting and research.
1. Bollinger Band Reversal with RSI Confirmation
Goal: Identify potential reversals when price touches an outer Bollinger Band and RSI shows overbought/oversold conditions.
Setup: Enable Bollinger Bands (e.g., 20,2), RSI (e.g., 14), and optionally the Choppiness Index.
Entry (Long):
- Price touches or briefly closes below the Lower Bollinger Band.
- RSI is in the oversold region (e.g., below 30) or shows bullish divergence.
- Optional Filter: Choppiness Index > 61.8 (indicating a ranging market favorable for BB mean reversion).
- Enter on a confirming candle (e.g., price closes back inside the Lower Band, or a bullish candle pattern forms).
Entry (Short): Reverse logic for Upper Bollinger Band and overbought RSI (e.g., above 70) or bearish divergence.
Management: Stop-loss beyond the recent swing low/high or a multiple of ATR. Target the Bollinger Band basis line or the opposite band.
2. Stochastic Oversold/Overbought with Pivot Point Support/Resistance
Goal: Trade bounces from key Pivot Point levels when confirmed by Stochastic extremes.
Setup: Enable Stochastic (e.g., 14,3,3), Pivot Points (e.g., Daily Traditional), and Fast MA (e.g., 9 EMA) for short-term trend context.
Entry (Long):
- Price approaches a significant Pivot Support level (S1, S2).
- Stochastic %K and %D lines are in the oversold region (e.g., below 20) and ideally show a bullish crossover (%K crosses above %D).
- Optional Filter: Price is above the Fast MA, or the Fast MA starts to slope up.
- Enter on signs of price rejection at the Pivot level.
Entry (Short): Reverse logic for Pivot Resistance levels (R1, R2) and overbought Stochastic (e.g., above 80) with a bearish crossover.
Management: Stop-loss below the Pivot Support (for longs) or above Pivot Resistance (for shorts). Target the next Pivot level or a fixed risk-reward ratio.
3. RSI Divergence at Keltner Channel Extremes
Goal: Capitalize on weakening momentum (divergence) as price tests the outer Keltner Channel bands.
Setup: Enable RSI (with Divergence plotting enabled), Keltner Channels (e.g., 20,2 EMA basis, ATR 10), and ATR (for stop placement).
Entry (Long):
- Price is testing or near the Lower Keltner Channel band.
- A Bullish RSI Divergence is plotted (price makes a lower low, but RSI makes a higher low).
- Enter once the divergence is confirmed and price shows signs of turning up.
Entry (Short):
- Price is testing or near the Upper Keltner Channel band.
- A Bearish RSI Divergence is plotted (price makes a higher high, but RSI makes a lower high).
- Enter once divergence is confirmed and price shows signs of turning down.
Management: Place stop-loss based on ATR (e.g., 1.5x ATR below entry for longs) or beyond the Keltner Channel. Target could be the Keltner basis line or a measured move.
█ CONCLUSION
The Mean Reversion Bundle offers a sophisticated yet user-friendly suite of tools essential for traders focusing on mean reversion. By consolidating these powerful indicators, providing extensive customization , multi-timeframe analysis , and integrated alerts , this bundle simplifies the analytical workflow and aids in the development of more robust and nuanced trading strategies. Whether identifying potential exhaustion points, confirming overbought/oversold conditions, or finding precise entry near dynamic support/resistance, this bundle is a versatile asset for your technical analysis toolkit.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Parameter Optimization: The default settings are starting points. Always adjust indicator parameters (lengths, multipliers, levels) based on the specific asset, its volatility, and the timeframe you are trading. Thorough backtesting is crucial.
⚠ Multi-Timeframe Dynamics: Using the " Timeframe " input can be very powerful. If " Wait TF Close " is enabled (default), signals from higher timeframes will only update upon the close of that higher timeframe bar. Disabling it may lead to signals changing intra-bar.
⚠ Confluence is Key: Avoid relying on a single indicator. The strength of this bundle lies in combining signals from multiple indicators to build a confluence case for a trade.
⚠ Chart Clarity: While many tools are available, only enable those pertinent to your current strategy to maintain a clear and actionable chart.
⚠ Signal Confirmation: Indicator signals are typically finalized on bar close. Be cautious when acting on intra-bar signals, as they can change before the bar is complete. Using " Once Per Bar Close " for alerts is generally recommended for mean reversion signals.
█ RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading involves a substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. The Mean Reversion Bundle indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only . It does NOT constitute financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any asset. Indicator signals identify potential patterns based on historical data but do not guarantee future price movements or profitability. Always conduct your own thorough research, utilize multiple sources of information, and implement robust risk management practices before making any trading decisions. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

⯁ KEY FEATURES & HOW TO USE
Savitzky-Golay Filtered Line (Basis):
Smooths out price noise using the Savitzky-Golay method, offering a more refined trend path than traditional moving averages. This centerline acts as the trend anchor and visually changes color depending on its slope to reflect the active trend direction.
Dynamic Trend Bands (Upper/Lower):
Constructed from the filtered line with a dynamic offset based on recent price volatility (ATR). These bands shift based on price pressure and are locked once price closes beyond them.
Helpful for identifying breakout moments or exhaustion areas where reversals are likely.
Trend Direction Detection:
A directional signal is confirmed when price breaks and closes above the upper band (uptrend) or below the lower band (downtrend).
Provides a clear and systematic way to identify when a trend begins.
Trend Duration Counter (Visual Decay Line):
A fading overlay line shows how long a trend has been active since the last reversal. The longer the trend persists, the more transparent this extension becomes.
This visual fading effect helps traders anticipate potential trend exhaustion and prepare for reversals or take-profit zones.
Reversal Signals (Diamond Markers):
Diamond shapes are plotted at each market shift, allowing users to visually pinpoint when the trend has flipped.
These markers act as decision zones for entry, exit, or stop-loss adjustments based on directional flow changes.
Color-Based Bar and Candle Painting:
Candles are painted green in uptrends and orange in downtrends, providing an intuitive glance at trend state without needing to interpret numbers.
Helps users stay aligned with the trend visually and avoid counter-trend entries.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Savitzky Flow Bands indicator offers a modernized, visually rich way to track trend shifts using a scientific smoothing method. With dynamic trend envelopes, color-coded cues, and visual markers, it equips traders with a structured framework to follow the market's flow and make data-driven decisions. Ideal for swing traders, momentum strategists, or any trader looking to trade in sync with the prevailing trend.
Moving Volume-Weighted Avg Price, % Channel, BBsThis script includes:
- Moving Volume-Weighted Average Price line.
- User-defined % band above and below, very useful for "breakout" signals, and mentally adjusting to the magnitude of price swings when viewing an automatic scale on the price axis.
- Volume-Weighted Bollinger Bands, which are more sensitive to volume.
More detail:
- This is like TV's basic VWAP in concept, except the major flaw in that is that it has reset periods that you can't override, and the volume is cumulative until the next hard reset. The 'reset' is OK for securities trading, that resets every day anyway. But not for crypto - and not if/when securities trading goes 24/7. Also, the denominator accumulating over the entire period is also *not* OK, because then what is shown means something different as the day progresses - which kind of makes it useless. In other words, it starts out very sensitive to volume, and gets progressively more numb to it as they day progresses, and starts flattening out.
- This fixes both problems, by using a user-definable moving window for the average. Essentially combining SMA with volume-weighting.
- You may also find an invaluable trading aid, in the % bands above and below.
- What can optionally be shown is standard deviation bands, aka Bollinger bands. The advantage over regular BB is that it's volume-weighted. Since it is already calculated on a moving average, the period for the standard deviation has been shortened by default, and the magnitude increased, to better approximate regular Bollinger Bands - but it's still more responsive to volume.
ZenAlgo - AvengerThe ZenAlgo - Avenger indicator provides a multi-layered view of market behavior by combining volume delta analytics, trend-following EMAs, average price comparison, and price-volume profiling into a unified overlay. It is designed to visually assist traders in identifying areas of interest, momentum shifts, and potential reversals using cumulative data from both spot and perpetual markets.
Volume Delta Calculation
This indicator computes delta as the difference between estimated buy and sell volumes using volume data from multiple centralized exchanges. It distinguishes between spot and perpetual volumes, combining them into total volume.
To estimate buying and selling volume from raw volume data, candle structure is broken down into body and wicks. The body is interpreted as the core directional movement (buy/sell), while the wicks are treated as uncertain or counteraction. This segmentation helps infer the likely share of buying and selling within each bar.
The delta is calculated per bar and then aggregated over a lookback period (default 14 bars) to generate a cumulative delta. This approach provides a smoothed value of volume pressure trends over time.
A moving average is applied to the delta values (using selectable MA types like EMA or SMA) to define signal crossovers and suppress noise.
Delta Visualization
To contextualize delta within price action, the delta is scaled dynamically (by ATR or user-defined value) and plotted as a band around the closing price. Positive delta expands upward from price, negative delta downward. This provides a visual overlay that reflects net market pressure in context with price movement.
In cases of extreme delta (threshold set at 80% of recent maximum), the indicator marks spike bars using symbols to indicate significant directional pressure.
Identification of Noteworthy Conditions
The indicator highlights points on the chart where specific conditions are met based on the interaction between volume delta and its moving average. These conditions may align with moments of market pressure imbalance and directional movement, but they are not to be interpreted as trade signals in isolation.
Instead, these chart markers serve as visual flags for potential interest. They are intended to draw the user’s attention to scenarios where:
The delta crosses above or below its moving average, suggesting a potential shift in volume pressure.
The cumulative delta supports the direction of this crossover.
Optional filters can further restrict these markings to periods where:
The short-term trend (as inferred from EMA slope) supports the direction.
Volume is elevated relative to a recent average.
A user-defined cooldown period prevents multiple markings within short succession to avoid clutter.
It is essential to underscore that these markers do not constitute buy or sell advice . Their role is diagnostic , helping the trader to identify potential moments of interest which should be analyzed in conjunction with broader context, such as trend structure, price action, support/resistance levels, or external market data.
EMA Structure
Six EMAs with fixed lengths (13 to 56) are plotted and colored dynamically based on the most recent crossover between the fastest and slowest (EMA1 and EMA6). These EMAs help visualize short- to mid-term trends. The crossover itself is marked with symbols, with vertical offset based on ATR to maintain chart readability.
Average Line (AVG)
The indicator also calculates an average price based on a fixed window (100 bars). This is not a standard moving average but rather a raw average of recent prices stored in a circular buffer. The average is plotted, and its relative distance to the current price is labeled as a percentage. This feature serves as a simplified representation of fair value or mean reversion anchor.
EMA6 vs AVG Cross
Another layer of point of interest detection involves EMA6 crossing the AVG line. This crossover is only considered valid if EMA6 shows slope consistency in the crossing direction. These events are marked using symbols and offset vertically to avoid overlapping price action.
Divergence Detection
The script detects both regular and hidden divergences between price and delta:
Regular divergences are defined when price makes a higher high or lower low, while delta fails to confirm (makes a lower high or higher low).
Hidden divergences occur when price retraces (lower high or higher low), but delta moves against this retracement, indicating underlying strength or weakness.
Divergence points are labeled with "R" (regular) or "H" (hidden) and appear at local pivot highs or lows. The number of visible divergence labels can be limited for chart clarity.
POC and nPOC Calculations
The script includes a simplified volume profile implementation, calculating:
POC (Point of Control): the price level with the highest volume for the given period.
nPOC (non-tested POC): historical POCs that have not yet been revisited by price.
Price levels are bucketed into rows (user-defined), and volume per bucket is tracked to identify the POC. Upon a new period (e.g., day, week), a horizontal POC line is drawn. Once tested by price, the line’s appearance changes (color fades, label shrinks), helping users distinguish between untouched and touched levels.
Limits are enforced on the number of retained POCs and their maximum distance from current bars to optimize performance and chart readability.
Exchange Aggregation
Volume data is aggregated across major exchanges. This ensures that the delta calculation captures a broader market picture beyond a single venue, reducing exchange-specific noise.
How to Interpret Values
Delta Band: Wide bands indicate strong directional imbalance. Narrow bands suggest indecision or low volume.
EMA Crossover Symbols: Appear on directional shifts in moving averages. Multiple EMAs reinforcing the same slope typically indicate stronger trend.
AVG Line: Represents average price over recent history. Large deviations can indicate overextension or potential mean reversion.
Divergences: Regular ones may point to weakening momentum; hidden ones can suggest continuation despite corrective price action.
POC / nPOC: Key volume-based support/resistance levels. Untested nPOCs can act as magnets for price retests.
How to Best Use This Indicator
Use in conjunction with trend context (e.g., higher timeframe EMAs) to avoid counter-trend indications.
Treat delta spikes as caution zones—especially if they occur at known support/resistance.
Watch for divergences as early warning signs before price reverses.
Use POC/nPOC as target levels, especially if aligned with delta signals.
Apply volume and trend filters to reduce noise on shorter timeframes.
Added Value
Multi-exchange volume aggregation makes the delta calculation more robust.
Real-time cumulative delta overlaid directly on the price chart provides immediate context.
Points of interest on chart are conservative and filterable, intended to reduce false positives.
The combination of delta, trend-following EMAs, fair value line, and volume profile data is rarely found in one overlay script.
POC/nPOC visualization based on real traded volume helps identify high-interest zones for future price interaction.
Why Is It Worth Paying For
While free alternatives may provide partial insights (e.g., basic delta or single EMA crossovers), this indicator integrates multiple domains—delta, divergence, average price, trend overlays, and profile levels—into a coherent, optimized chart tool. The value lies not just in having these tools, but in how they are synchronized and visualized.
Furthermore, sourcing and synchronizing volume data from multiple exchanges for delta estimation is not straightforward in Pine Script and adds to the indicator's complexity and utility.
Disclaimers and Limitations
Delta estimation is based on candle structure and assumes wick/body distribution reflects buyer/seller activity, which may not always be precise.
Multi-exchange volume data relies on availability via TradingView’s request.security() function; if exchange data is missing or delayed, results may be incomplete.
Divergences do not guarantee reversals—should be used as part of a broader analysis framework.
On illiquid instruments or exotic pairs, the value of delta and volume-based analytics may be reduced due to unreliable volume.

HL2 Moving Average with BandsThis indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying potential trade entries and exits for S&P 500 (ES) and Nasdaq-100 (NQ) futures. It calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) based on the HL2 value (average of high and low prices) of the current candle over a user-defined lookback period (default: 200 periods). The indicator plots this SMA as a blue line, providing a smoothed reference for price trends.
Additionally, it includes upper and lower bands calculated as a percentage (default: 0.5%) above and below the SMA, plotted as green and red lines, respectively. These bands act as dynamic thresholds to identify overbought or oversold conditions. The indicator generates trade signals based on price action relative to these bands:
Long Entry: A green upward triangle is plotted below the candle when the close crosses above the upper band, signaling a potential buy.
Close Long: A red square is plotted above the candle when the close crosses back below the upper band, indicating an exit for the long position.
Short Entry: A red downward triangle is plotted above the candle when the close crosses below the lower band, signaling a potential sell.
Close Short: A green square is plotted below the candle when the close crosses back above the lower band, indicating an exit for the short position.
The script is customizable, allowing users to adjust the SMA length and band percentage to suit their trading style or market conditions. It is plotted as an overlay on the price chart for easy integration with other technical analysis tools.
Recommended Time Frame and Settings for Trading S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 Futures
Based on research and market dynamics for S&P 500 (ES) and Nasdaq-100 (NQ) futures, the 5-minute chart is recommended as the optimal time frame for day trading with this indicator. This time frame strikes a balance between capturing intraday trends and filtering out excessive noise, which is critical for futures trading due to their high volatility and leverage. The 5-minute chart aligns well with periods of high liquidity and volatility, such as the U.S. market open (9:30 AM–11:00 AM EST) and the afternoon session (2:00 PM–4:00 PM EST), when institutional traders are most active.
Why 5-minute? It allows traders to react to short-term price movements while avoiding the rapid fluctuations of 1-minute charts, which can be prone to false signals in choppy markets. It also provides enough data points to make the SMA and bands meaningful without the lag associated with longer time frames like 15-minute or hourly charts.
Recommended Settings
SMA Length: Set to 200 periods. This longer lookback period smooths the HL2 data, reducing noise and providing a reliable trend reference for the 5-minute chart. A 200-period SMA helps identify significant trend shifts without being overly sensitive to minor price fluctuations.
Band Percentage: 0.5% is more suitable for the volatility of ES and NQ futures on a 5-minute chart, as it generates fewer but higher-probability signals. Wider bands (e.g., 1%) may miss short-term opportunities, while narrower bands (e.g., 0.1%) may produce excessive false signals.
Trading Session Recommendations
Futures markets for ES and NQ are open nearly 24 hours (Sunday 6:00 PM EST to Friday 5:00 PM EST, with a daily break from 4:00 PM–5:00 PM EST), but not all hours are equally optimal due to varying liquidity and volatility. The best times to trade with this indicator are:
U.S. Market Open (9:30 AM–11:00 AM EST): This period is characterized by high volume and volatility, driven by the opening of U.S. equity markets and economic data releases (e.g., 8:30 AM EST reports like CPI or GDP). The indicator’s signals are more reliable during this window due to strong order flow and price momentum.
Afternoon Session (2:00 PM–4:00 PM EST): After the lunchtime lull, volume picks up as institutional traders return, and news or FOMC announcements often drive price action. The indicator can capture breakout moves as prices test the upper or lower bands.
Pre-Market (7:30 AM–9:30 AM EST): For traders comfortable with lower liquidity, this period can offer opportunities, especially around 8:30 AM EST economic releases. However, use tighter risk management due to wider spreads and potential volatility spikes.
Additional Tips
Avoid Low-Volume Periods: Steer clear of trading during low-liquidity hours, such as the overnight session (11:00 PM–3:00 AM EST), when spreads widen and price movements can be erratic, leading to false signals from the indicator.
Combine with Other Tools: Enhance the indicator’s effectiveness by pairing it with support/resistance levels, Fibonacci retracements, or volume analysis to confirm signals. For example, a long entry signal above the upper band is stronger if it coincides with a breakout above a key resistance level.
Risk Management: Given the leverage in futures (e.g., Micro E-mini contracts require ~$1,200 margin for ES), use tight stop-losses (e.g., below the lower band for longs or above the upper band for shorts) to manage risk. Aim for a risk-reward ratio of at least 1:2.
Test Settings: Backtest the indicator on a demo account to optimize the SMA length and band percentage for your specific trading style and risk tolerance. Micro E-mini contracts (MES for S&P 500, MNQ for Nasdaq-100) are ideal for testing due to their lower capital requirements.
Why These Settings and Time Frame?
The 5-minute chart with a 200-period SMA and 0.5% bands is tailored for the volatility and liquidity of ES and NQ futures during peak trading hours. The longer SMA period ensures the indicator captures meaningful trends, while the 0.5% bands are tight enough to signal actionable breakouts but wide enough to avoid excessive whipsaws. Trading during high-volume sessions maximizes the likelihood of valid signals, as institutional participation drives clearer price action.
By focusing on these settings and time frames, traders can leverage the indicator to capitalize on the dynamic price movements of S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 futures while managing the inherent risks of these markets.
TrendWave Bands [BigBeluga]This is a trend-following indicator that dynamically adapts to market trends using upper and lower bands. It visually highlights trend strength and duration through color intensity while providing additional wave bands for deeper trend analysis.
🔵Key Features:
Adaptive Trend Bands:
➣ Displays a lower band in uptrends and an upper band in downtrends to indicate trend direction.
➣ The bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, helping traders identify potential entry and exit points.
Wave Bands for Additional Analysis:
➣ A dashed wave band appears opposite the main trend band for deeper trend confirmation.
➣ In an uptrend, the upper dashed wave band helps analyze momentum, while in a downtrend, the lower dashed wave band serves the same purpose.
Gradient Color Intensity:
➣ The trend bands have a color gradient that fades as the trend continues, helping traders visualize trend duration.
➣ The wave bands have an inverse gradient effect—starting with low intensity at the trend's beginning and increasing in intensity as the trend progresses.
Trend Change Signals:
➣ Circular markers appear at trend reversals, providing clear entry and exit points.
➣ These signals mark transitions between bullish and bearish phases based on price action.
🔵Usage:
Trend Following: Use the lower band for confirmation in uptrends and the upper band in downtrends to stay on the right side of the market.
Trend Duration Analysis: Gradient wavebands give an idea of the duration of the current trend — new trends will have high-intensity colored wavebands and as time goes on, trends will fade.
