Candle Trend PowerThe Candle Trend Power is a custom technical indicator designed for advanced trend analysis and entry signal generation. It combines multiple smoothing methods, candle transformations, and volatility bands to visually and analytically enhance your trading decisions.
🔧 Main Features:
📉 Custom Candle Types
It transforms standard OHLC candles into one of several advanced types:
Normal Candles, Heikin-Ashi, Linear Regression, Rational Quadratic (via kernel filtering), McGinley Dynamic Candles
These transformations help traders better see trend continuations and reversals by smoothing out market noise.
🧮 Smoothing Method for Candle Data
Each OHLC value can be optionally smoothed using:
EMA, SMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, VWMA, HMA, Mode (Statistical mode) Or no smoothing at all.
This flexibility is useful for customizing to different market conditions.
📊 Volatility Bands
Volatility-based upper and lower bands are calculated using:
Band = price ± (price% + ATR * multiplier)
They help identify overbought/oversold zones and potential reversal points.
📍 Candle Color Logic
Each candle is colored:
Cyan (#00ffff) if it's bullish and stronger than the previous candle
Red (#fd0000) if it's bearish and weaker
Alternating bar index coloring improves visual clarity.
📈 Trend Momentum Labels
The script includes a trend strength estimation using a smoothed RSI:
If the candle is bullish, it shows a BUY label with the overbought offset.
If bearish, it shows a SELL label with the oversold offset.
These labels are dynamic and placed next to the bar.
📍 Signal Markers
It also plots triangles when the price crosses the volatility bands:
Triangle up for potential long
Triangle down for potential short
✅ Use Case Summary
This script is mainly used for:
Visual trend confirmation with enhanced candles
Volatility-based entry signals
RSI-based trend momentum suggestions
Integrating different smoothing & transformation methods to fine-tune your strategy

VWAP StrategyVWAP and volatility filters for structured intraday trades.
How the Strategy Works
1. VWAP Anchored to Session
VWAP is calculated from the start of each trading day.
Standard deviations are used to create bands above/below the VWAP.
2. Entry Triggers: Al Brooks H1/H2 and L1/L2
H1/H2 (Long Entry): Opens below 2nd lower deviation, closes above it.
L1/L2 (Short Entry): Opens above 2nd upper deviation, closes below it.
3. Volatility Filter (ATR)
Skips trades when deviation bands are too tight (< 3 ATRs).
4. Stop Loss
Based on the signal bar’s high/low ± stop buffer.
Longs: signalBarLow - stopBuffer
Shorts: signalBarHigh + stopBuffer
5. Take Profit / Exit Target
Exit logic is customizable per side:
VWAP, Deviation Band, or None
6. Safety Exit
Exits early if X consecutive bars go against the trade.
Longs: X red bars
Shorts: X green bars
Explanation of Strategy Inputs
- Stop Buffer: Distance from signal bar for stop-loss.
- Long/Short Exit Rule: VWAP, Deviation Band, or None
- Long/Short Target Deviation: Standard deviation for target exit.
- Enable Safety Exit: Toggle emergency exit.
- Opposing Bars: Number of opposing candles before safety exit.
- Allow Long/Short Trades: Enable or disable entry side.
- Show VWAP/Entry Bands: Toggle visual aids.
- Highlight Low Vol Zones: Orange shading for low volatility skips.
Tuning Tips
- Stop buffer: Use 1–5 points.
- Target deviation: Start with VWAP. In strong trends use 2nd deviation and turn off the counter-trend entry.
- Safety exit: 3 bars recommended.
- Disable short/long side to focus on one type of reversal.
Backtest Setup Suggestions
- initial_capital = 2000
- default_qty_value = 1 (fixed contracts or percent-of-equity)
Scalper's Fractal Cloud with RSI + VWAP + MACD (Fixed)Scalper’s Fractal Confluence Dashboard
1. Purpose of the Indicator
This TradingView indicator script provides a high-confluence setup for scalping and day trading. It blends momentum indicators (RSI, MACD), trend bias tools (EMA Cloud, VWAP), and structure (fractal swings, gap zones) to help confirm precise entries and exits.
2. Components of the Indicator
- EMA Cloud (50 & 200 EMA): Trend bias – green means bullish, red means bearish. Avoid longs under red cloud.
- VWAP: Institutional volume anchor. Ideal entries are pullbacks to VWAP in direction of trend.
- Gap Zones: Shows open-air zones (white space) where price can move fast. Used to anticipate momentum moves.
- ZigZag Swings: Marks structural pivots (highs/lows) – useful for stop placement and range anticipation.
- MACD Histogram: Shows bullish or bearish momentum via background color.
- RSI: Overbought (>70) or oversold (<30) warnings. Good for exits or countertrend reversion plays.
- EMA Spread Label: Quick view of momentum strength. Wide spread = strong trend.
3. Scalping Entry Checklist
Before entering a trade, confirm these conditions:
• • Bias: EMA cloud color supports trade direction
• • Price is above/below VWAP (confirming institutional flow)
• • MACD histogram matches direction (green for long, red for short)
• • RSI not at extreme (unless you’re fading trend)
• • If entering gap zone, expect fast move
• • Recent swing high/low nearby for target or stop
4. Risk & Sizing Guidelines
Risk 1–2% of account per trade. Place stop below recent swing low (for longs) or high (for shorts). Use fractional sizing near VWAP or white space zones for scalping reversals.

Unleash Dynamic Trading Signals with Volatility and Momentum
Overview
GreenDiamond is a versatile overlay indicator designed for traders seeking actionable buy and sell signals across various markets and timeframes. Combining Volatility Bands (VB) bands, Consolidation Detection, MACD, RSI, and a unique Ribbon Wave, it highlights high-probability setups while filtering out noise. With customizable signals like Green-Yellow Buy, Pullback Sell, and Inverse Pullback Buy, plus vibrant candle and volume visuals, GreenDiamond adapts to your trading style—whether you’re scalping, day trading, or swing trading.
Key Features
Volatility Bands (VB): Plots dynamic upper and lower bands to identify breakouts or reversals, with toggleable buy/sell signals outside consolidation zones.
Consolidation Detection: Marks low-range periods to avoid choppy markets, ensuring signals fire during trending conditions.
MACD Signals: Offers flexible buy/sell conditions (e.g., cross above signal, above zero, histogram up) with RSI divergence integration for precision.
RSI Filter: Enhances signals with customizable levels (midline, oversold/overbought) and bullish divergence detection.
Ribbon Wave: Visualizes trend strength using three EMAs, colored by MACD and RSI for intuitive momentum cues.
Custom Signals: Includes Green-Yellow Buy, Pullback Sell, and Inverse Pullback Buy, with limits on consecutive signals to prevent overtrading.
Candle & Volume Styling: Blends MACD/RSI colors on candles and scales volume bars to highlight momentum spikes.
Alerts: Set up alerts for VB signals, MACD crosses, Green*Diamond signals, and custom conditions to stay on top of opportunities.
How It Works
Green*Diamond integrates multiple indicators to generate signals:
Volatility Bands: Calculates bands using a pivot SMA and standard deviation. Buy signals trigger on crossovers above the lower band, sell signals on crossunders below the upper band (if enabled).
Consolidation Filter: Suppresses signals when candle ranges are below a threshold, keeping you out of flat markets.
MACD & RSI: Combines MACD conditions (e.g., cross above signal) with RSI filters (e.g., above midline) and optional volume spikes for robust signals.
Custom Logic: Green-Yellow Buy uses MACD bullishness, Pullback Sell targets retracements, and Inverse Pullback Buy catches reversals after downmoves—all filtered to avoid consolidation.
Visuals: Ribbon Wave shows trend direction, candles blend momentum colors, and volume bars scale dynamically to confirm signals.
Settings
Volatility Bands Settings:
VB Lookback Period (20): Adjust to 10–15 for faster markets (e.g., 1-minute scalping) or 25–30 for daily charts.
Upper/Lower Band Multiplier (1.0): Increase to 1.5–2.0 for wider bands in volatile stocks like AEHL; decrease to 0.5 for calmer markets.
Show Volatility Bands: Toggle off to reduce chart clutter.

Enable RSI Divergence + MACD Cross for high-probability setups; set Max Buy Signals = 2.
Watch for volume bars turning yellow to confirm entries.
Swing Trading:
Use daily charts with VB Lookback = 30, Ribbon EMAs = 20/40/60.
Enable Pullback Sell (60%) to exit after rallies; disable RSI Color for cleaner candles.
Check Ribbon Wave gradient for trend strength—bright green signals strong bulls.
Avoiding Noise:
Increase Consolidation Threshold to 0.7 on volatile days to skip false breakouts.
Disable Ribbon Wave or Volume Bars if the chart feels crowded.
Limit Max Buy Signals to 1 for disciplined trading.
Alert Setup:
In TradingView’s Alerts panel, select:
“GD Buy Signal” for standard entries.
“RSI Div + MACD Cross Buy” for reversals.
“VB Buy Signal” for breakout plays.
Set to “Once Per Bar Close” for confirmed signals; “Once Per Bar” for scalping.
Backtesting:
Replay on small caps ( Float < 5M, Price $0.50–$5) to test signals.
Focus on “GD Buy Signal” with yellow volume bars and green Ribbon Wave.
Avoid signals during gray consolidation squares unless paired with RSI Divergence.
Usage Notes
Markets: Works on stocks, forex, crypto, and indices. Best for volatile assets (e.g., small-cap stocks, BTCUSD).
Timeframes: Scalping (1–5 minutes), day trading (15–60 minutes), or swing trading (daily). Adjust settings per timeframe.
Risk Management: Combine with stop-losses (e.g., 1% risk, $0.05 below AEHL entry) and take-profits (3–5%).
Customization: Tweak inputs to match your strategy—experiment in replay to find your sweet spot.

Stochastic Overlay - Regression Channel (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Stochastic Overlay – Regression Channel (Zeiierman) is a next-generation visualization tool that transforms the traditional Stochastic Oscillator into a dynamic price-based overlay.
Instead of leaving momentum trapped in a lower subwindow, this indicator projects the Stochastic oscialltor directly onto price itself — allowing traders to visually interpret momentum, overbought/oversold conditions, and market strength without ever taking their eyes off price action.
⚪ In simple terms:
▸ The Bands = The Stochastic Oscillator — but on price.
▸ The Midline = Stochastic 50 level
▸ Upper Band = Stochastic Overbought Threshold
▸ Lower Band = Stochastic Oversold Threshold
When the price moves above the midline → it’s the same as the oscillator moving above 50
When the price breaks above the upper band → it’s the same as Stochastic entering overbought.
When the price reaches the lower band →, think of it like Stochastic being oversold.
This makes market conditions visually intuitive. You’re literally watching the oscillator live on the price chart.
█ How It Works
The indicator layers 3 distinct technical elements into one clean view:
⚪ Stochastic Momentum Engine
Tracks overbought/oversold conditions and directional strength using:
%K Line → Momentum of price
%D Line → Smoothing filter of %K
Overbought/Oversold Bands → Highlight potential reversal zones
⚪ Volatility Adaptive Bands
Dynamic bands plotted above and below price using:
ATR * Stochastic Scaling → Creates wider bands during volatile periods & tighter bands in calm conditions
Basis → Moving average centerline (EMA, SMA, WMA, HMA, RMA selectable)
This means:
→ In strong trends: Bands expand
→ In consolidations: Bands contract
⚪ Regression Channel
Projects trend direction with different models:
Logarithmic → Captures non-linear growth (perfect for crypto or exponential stocks)
Linear → Classic regression fit
Adaptive → Dynamically adjusts sensitivity
Leading → Projects trend further ahead (aggressive mode)
Channels include:
Midline → Fair value trend
Upper/Lower Bounds → Deviation-based support/resistance
⚪ Heatmap - Bull & Bear Power Strength
Visual heatmeter showing:
% dominance of bulls vs bears (based on close > or < Band Basis)
Automatic normalization regardless of timeframe
Table display on-chart for quick visual insight
Dynamic highlighting when extreme levels are reached
⚪ Trend Candlestick Coloring
Bars auto-color based on trend filter:
Above Basis → Bullish Color
Below Basis → Bearish Color
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Trading
→ Use Band direction + Regression Channel to identify trend alignment
→ Longs favored when price holds above the Basis
→ Shorts favored when price stays below the Basis
→ Use the Bull & Bear heatmap to asses if the bulls or the bears are in control.
⚪ Mean Reversion
→ Look for price to interact with Upper or Lower Band extremes
→ Stochastic reaching OB/OS zones further supports reversals
⚪ Momentum Confirmation
→ Crossovers between %K and %D can confirm continuation or divergence signals
→ Especially powerful when happening at band boundaries
⚪ Strength Heatmap
→ Quickly visualize current buyer vs seller control
→ Sharp spikes in Bull Power = Aggressive buying
→ Sharp spikes in Bear Power = Heavy selling pressure
█ Why It Useful
This is not a typical Stochastic or regression tool. The tool is designed for traders who want to:
React dynamically to price volatility
Map momentum into volatility context
Use adaptive regression channels across trend styles
Visualize bull vs bear power in real-time
Follow trends with built-in reversal logic
█ Settings
Stochastic Settings
Stochastic Length → Period of calculation. Higher = smoother, Lower = faster signals.
%K Smoothing → Smooths the Stochastic line itself.
%D Smoothing → Smooths the moving average of %K for slower signals.
Stochastic Band
Band Length → Length of the Moving Average Basis.
Volatility Multiplier → Controls band width via ATR scaling.
Band Type → Choose MA type (EMA, SMA, WMA, HMA, RMA).
Regression Channel
Regression Type → Logarithmic / Linear / Adaptive / Leading.
Regression Length → Number of bars for regression calculation.
Heatmap Settings
Heatmap Length → Number of bars to calculate bull/bear dominance.

Price Position Percentile (PPP)
Price Position Percentile (PPP)
A statistical analysis tool that dynamically measures where current price stands within its historical distribution. Unlike traditional oscillators, PPP adapts to market conditions by calculating percentile ranks, creating a self-adjusting framework for identifying extremes.
How It Works
This indicator analyzes the last 200 price bars (customizable) and calculates the percentile rank of the current price within this distribution. For example, if the current price is at the 80th percentile, it means the price is higher than 80% of all prices in the lookback period.
The indicator creates five dynamic zones based on percentile thresholds:
Extremely Low Zone (<5%) : Prices in the lowest 5% of the distribution, indicating potential oversold conditions.
Low Zone (5-25%) : Accumulation zone where prices are historically low but not extreme.
Neutral Zone (25-75%) : Fair value zone representing the middle 50% of the price distribution.
High Zone (75-95%) : Distribution zone where prices are historically high but not extreme.
Extremely High Zone (>95%) : Prices in the highest 5% of the distribution, suggesting potential bubble conditions.
Mathematical Foundation
Unlike fixed-threshold indicators, PPP uses a non-parametric approach:
// Core percentile calculation
percentile = (count_of_prices_below_current / total_prices) * 100
// Threshold calculation using built-in function
p_extremely_low = ta.percentile_linear_interpolation(source, lookback, 5)
p_low = ta.percentile_linear_interpolation(source, lookback, 25)
p_neutral_high = ta.percentile_linear_interpolation(source, lookback, 75)
p_extremely_high = ta.percentile_linear_interpolation(source, lookback, 95)
Key Features
Dynamic Adaptation : All zones adjust automatically as price distribution changes
Statistical Robustness : Works on any timeframe and any market, including highly volatile cryptocurrencies
Visual Clarity : Color-coded zones provide immediate visual context
Non-parametric Analysis : Makes no assumptions about price distribution shape
Historical Context : Shows how zones evolved over time, revealing market regime changes
Practical Applications
PPP provides objective statistical context for price action, helping traders make more informed decisions based on historical price distribution rather than arbitrary levels.
Value Investment : Identify statistically significant low prices for potential entry points
Risk Management : Recognize when prices reach historical extremes for profit taking
Cycle Analysis : Observe how percentile zones expand and contract during different market phases
Market Regime Detection : Identify transitions between accumulation, markup, distribution, and markdown phases
Usage Guidelines
This indicator is particularly effective when:
- Used across multiple timeframes for confirmation
- Combined with volume analysis for validation of extremes
- Applied in conjunction with trend identification tools
- Monitored for divergences between price action and percentile ranking
DI+/- Cross Strategy with ATR SL and 2% TPDI+/- Cross Strategy with ATR Stop Loss and 2% Take Profit
📝 Script Description for Publishing:
This strategy is based on the directional movement of the market using the Average Directional Index (ADX) components — DI+ and DI- — to generate entry signals, with clearly defined risk and reward targets using ATR-based Stop Loss and Fixed Percentage Take Profit.
🔍 How it works:
Buy Signal: When DI+ crosses above 40, signaling strong bullish momentum.
Sell Signal: When DI- crosses above 40, indicating strong bearish momentum.
Stop Loss: Dynamically calculated using ATR × 1.5, to account for market volatility.
Take Profit: Fixed at 2% above/below the entry price, for consistent reward targeting.
🧠 Why it’s useful:
Combines momentum breakout logic with volatility-based risk management.
Works well on trending assets, especially when combined with higher timeframe filters.
Clean BUY and SELL visual labels make it easy to interpret and backtest.
✅ Tips for Use:
Use on assets with clear trends (e.g., major forex pairs, trending stocks, crypto).
Best on 30m – 4H timeframes, but can be customized.
Consider combining with other filters (e.g., EMA trend direction or Bollinger Bands) for even better accuracy.
Hamid Double RSIRSI with Moving Average and Another RSI
This script combines two Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicators with configurable moving averages. It allows traders to track momentum and market strength with adjustable periods for both the RSI and moving averages. The script also allows you to choose different data sources for each RSI, offering flexibility in analysis.
Features:
Two RSIs: One with a shorter period and another with a longer period .
Moving Averages: Each RSI has its own configurable moving average . The moving averages help smooth out the RSI and provide clearer trends.
Customizable Inputs: Adjust the RSI period and the length of the moving averages. You can also choose different sources for each RSI (e.g., close, open, high, low).
Mid Line: A horizontal line at 50, which is commonly used as the neutral level for the RSI. It helps identify whether the RSI is above or below neutral, indicating bullish or bearish conditions.
Overbought and Oversold Levels: Horizontal lines at 70 (overbought) and 30 (oversold) to highlight when the asset might be overbought or oversold according to the RSI.
How it works:
RSI Calculation: The script calculates two RSIs using different lengths
Moving Averages: A Simple Moving Average (SMA) is applied to both RSIs to smooth their values and help identify trends.
Overbought/Oversold Indicators: The script includes horizontal lines at 70 and 30 to show overbought and oversold conditions. The mid line is plotted at 50 to highlight neutral levels.
This indicator is useful for traders who want to compare the behavior of two RSIs over different time periods and use the moving averages to filter out noise. The ability to customize the source data for each RSI makes this script adaptable to different trading strategies.
Donchian Breakout Strategy📈 Donchian Breakout Strategy (Inspired by Way of the Turtle)
This strategy is a modern adaptation of the legendary Turtle Trading system as taught in Way of the Turtle by Curtis Faith — re-engineered for the crypto market’s volatility, 24/7 nature, and frequent fakeouts.
⸻
🐢 Original Inspiration
The original Turtle system, created by Richard Dennis and William Eckhardt, used:
• Breakouts of Donchian Channels (20-day for entry, 10-day for exit)
• Volatility-based position sizing using ATR (N)
• Simple rules, big trend exposure, and pyramiding to grow winners
It was built for futures and commodities, trading daily bars, assuming stable trading hours and regulated markets.
⸻
🚀 What’s Different in This Strategy?
✅ Optimized for Crypto
• Adapts to constant volatility and price manipulation common in crypto
• Adds commission modeling for realistic results (0.045% default)
✅ Improved Entry Filtering
• Uses EMA filter to align with trend direction
• Adds RSI momentum check to avoid early or weak breakouts
• Optional volatility and volume filters to reduce false signals
✅ Smarter Exits
• ATR-based volatility stop loss, not just Donchian reversal
• Avoids pyramiding to reduce risk from sudden reversals
✅ Backtest-Friendly
• Default backtest window starts from 2025-01-01
• Fully configurable: long/short toggle, filter control, stop loss multiplier
⸻
🧪 Use Case
• Best on trending coins with strong directional moves
• Avoids chop via filters, preserving capital
• Can be tuned for aggressive or conservative setups with just a few tweaks

Multi-Timeframe Anchored VWAP Valuation# Multi-Timeframe Anchored VWAP Valuation
## Overview
This indicator provides a unique perspective on potential price valuation by comparing the current price to the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) anchored to the start of multiple timeframes: Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly. It synthesizes these comparisons into a single oscillator value, helping traders gauge if the current price is potentially extended relative to significant volume-weighted levels.
## Core Concept & Calculation
1. **Anchored VWAP:** The script calculates the VWAP separately for the current Week, Month, Quarter (3 Months), and Year (12 Months), starting the calculation from the first bar of each period.
2. **Price Deviation:** It measures how far the current `close` price is from each of these anchored VWAPs. This distance is measured in terms of standard deviations calculated *within* that specific anchor period (e.g., how many weekly standard deviations the price is away from the weekly VWAP).
3. **Deviation Score (Multiplier):** Based on this standard deviation distance, a score is assigned. The further the price is from the VWAP (in terms of standard deviations), the higher the absolute score. The indicator uses linear interpolation to determine scores between the standard deviation levels (defaulted at 1, 2, and 3 standard deviations corresponding to scores of +/-2, +/-3, +/-4, with a score of 1 at the VWAP).
4. **Timeframe Weighting:** Longer timeframes are considered more significant. The deviation scores are multiplied by fixed scalars: Weekly (x1), Monthly (x2), Quarterly (x3), Yearly (x4).
5. **Final Valuation Metric:** The weighted scores from all four timeframes are summed up to produce the final oscillator value plotted in the indicator pane.
## How to Interpret and Use
* **Histogram (Indicator Pane):**
* The main output is the histogram representing the `Final Valuation Metric`.
* **Positive Values:** Suggest the price is generally trading above its volume-weighted averages across the timeframes, potentially indicating strength or relative "overvaluation."
* **Negative Values:** Suggest the price is generally trading below its volume-weighted averages, potentially indicating weakness or relative "undervaluation."
* **Values Near Zero:** Indicate the price is relatively close to its volume-weighted averages.
* **Histogram Color:**
* The color of the histogram bars provides context based on the metric's *own recent history*.
* **Green (Positive Color):** The metric is currently *above* its recent average plus a standard deviation band (dynamic upper threshold). This highlights potentially significant "overvalued" readings relative to its normal range.
* **Red (Negative Color):** The metric is currently *below* its recent average minus a standard deviation band (dynamic lower threshold). This highlights potentially significant "undervalued" readings relative to its normal range.
* **Gray (Neutral Color):** The metric is within its typical recent range (between the dynamic upper and lower thresholds).
* **Orange Line:** Plots the moving average of the `Final Valuation Metric` itself (based on the "Threshold Lookback Period"), serving as the centerline for the dynamic thresholds.
* **On-Chart Table:**
* Provides a detailed breakdown for transparency.
* Shows the calculated VWAP, the raw deviation multiplier score, and the final weighted (adjusted) metric for each individual timeframe (W, M, Q, Y).
* Displays the current price, the final combined metric value, and a textual interpretation ("Overvalued", "Undervalued", "Neutral") based on the dynamic thresholds.
## Potential Use Cases
* Identifying potential exhaustion points when the indicator reaches statistically high (green) or low (red) levels relative to its recent history.
* Assessing whether price trends are supported by underlying volume-weighted average prices across multiple timeframes.
* Can be used alongside other technical analysis tools for confirmation.
## Settings
* **Calculation Settings:**
* `STDEV Level 1`: Adjusts the 1st standard deviation level (default 1.0).
* `STDEV Level 2`: Adjusts the 2nd standard deviation level (default 2.0).
* `STDEV Level 3`: Adjusts the 3rd standard deviation level (default 3.0).
* **Interpretation Settings:**
* `Threshold Lookback Period`: Defines the number of bars used to calculate the average and standard deviation of the final metric for dynamic thresholds (default 200).
* `Threshold StDev Multiplier`: Controls how many standard deviations above/below the metric's average are used to set the "Overvalued"/"Undervalued" thresholds (default 1.0).
* **Table Settings:** Customize the position and colors of the data table displayed on the chart.
## Important Considerations
* This indicator measures price deviation relative to *anchored* VWAPs and its *own historical range*. It is not a standalone trading system.
* The interpretation of "Overvalued" and "Undervalued" is relative to the indicator's logic and calculations; it does not guarantee future price movement.
* Like all indicators, past performance is not indicative of future results. Use this tool as part of a comprehensive analysis and risk management strategy.
* The anchored VWAP and Standard Deviation values reset at the beginning of each respective period (Week, Month, Quarter, Year).

Fibonacci Counter-Trend TradingOverview:
The Fibonacci Counter-Trend Trading strategy is designed to capitalize on price reversals by utilizing Fibonacci levels calculated from the standard deviation of price movements. This strategy opens a sell order when the closing price crosses above a specified upper Fibonacci level and a buy order when the closing price crosses below a specified lower Fibonacci level. By leveraging the principles of Fibonacci retracement and volatility, this strategy aims to identify potential reversal points in the market.
How It Works:
Fibonacci Levels Calculation:
The strategy calculates upper and lower Fibonacci levels based on the standard deviation of the price over a specified moving average length. These levels are derived from the Fibonacci sequence, which is widely used in technical analysis to identify potential support and resistance levels.
The upper levels are calculated by adding specific Fibonacci ratios (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.764, and 1.0) multiplied by the standard deviation to the basis (the volume-weighted moving average).
The lower levels are calculated by subtracting the same Fibonacci ratios multiplied by the standard deviation from the basis.
Trade Entry Rules:
Sell Order: A sell order is triggered when the closing price crosses above the selected upper Fibonacci level. This indicates a potential reversal point where the price may start to decline.
Buy Order: A buy order is initiated when the closing price crosses below the selected lower Fibonacci level. This suggests a potential reversal point where the price may begin to rise.
Trade Management:
The strategy includes stop-losses based on the Fibonacci levels to protect against adverse price movements.
How to Use:
Users can customize the moving average length and the multiplier for the standard deviation to suit their trading preferences and market conditions.
The strategy can be applied to various financial instruments, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies, making it versatile for different trading environments.
Pros:
The Fibonacci Counter-Trend Trading strategy combines the mathematical principles of the Fibonacci sequence with the statistical measure of standard deviation, providing a unique approach to identifying potential market reversals.
This strategy is particularly useful in volatile markets where price swings can lead to significant trading opportunities.
The use of Fibonacci levels can help traders identify key support and resistance areas, enhancing decision-making.
Cons:
The strategy may generate false signals in choppy or sideways markets, leading to potential losses if the price does not reverse as anticipated.
Relying solely on Fibonacci levels without considering other technical indicators or market conditions may result in missed opportunities or increased risk.
The effectiveness of the strategy can vary depending on the chosen parameters (e.g., moving average length and standard deviation multiplier), requiring users to spend time optimizing these settings for different market conditions.
As with any counter-trend strategy, there is a risk of significant drawdowns during strong trending markets, where the price continues to move in one direction without reversing.
By understanding the mechanics of the Fibonacci Counter-Trend Trading strategy, along with its pros and cons, traders can effectively implement it in their trading routines and potentially enhance their trading performance.
Transient Impact Model [ScorsoneEnterprises]This indicator is an implementation of the Transient Impact Model. This tool is designed to show the strength the current trades have on where price goes before they decay.
Here are links to more sophisticated research articles about Transient Impact Models than this post arxiv.org and arxiv.org
The way this tool is supposed to work in a simple way, is when impact is high price is sensitive to past volume, past trades being placed. When impact is low, it moves in a way that is more independent from past volume. In a more sophisticated system, perhaps transient impact should be calculated for each trade that is placed, not just the total volume of a past bar. I didn't do it to ensure parameters exist and aren’t na, as well as to have more iterations for optimization. Note that the value will change as volume does, as soon as a new candle occurs with no volume, the values could be dramatically different.
How it works
There are a few components to this script, so we’ll go into the equation and then the other functions used in this script.
// Transient Impact Model
transient_impact(params, price_change, lkb) =>
alpha = array.get(params, 0)
beta = array.get(params, 1)
lambda_ = array.get(params, 2)
instantaneous = alpha * volume
transient = 0.0
for t = 1 to lkb - 1
if na(volume )
break
transient := transient + beta * volume * math.exp(-lambda_ * t)
predicted_change = instantaneous + transient
math.pow(price_change - predicted_change, 2)
The parameters alpha, beta, and lambda all represent a different real thing.
Alpha (α):
Represents the instantaneous impact coefficient. It quantifies the immediate effect of the current volume on the price change. In the equation, instantaneous = alpha * volume , alpha scales the current bar's volume (volume ) to determine how much of the price change is due to immediate market impact. A larger alpha suggests that current volume has a stronger instantaneous influence on price.
Beta (β):
Represents the transient impact coefficient.It measures the lingering effect of past volumes on the current price change. In the loop calculating transient, beta * volume * math.exp(-lambda_ * t) shows that beta scales the volume from previous bars (volume ), contributing to a decaying effect over time. A higher beta indicates a stronger influence from past volumes, though this effect diminishes with time due to the exponential decay factor.
Lambda (λ):
Represents the decay rate of the transient impact.It controls how quickly the influence of past volumes fades over time in the transient component. In the term math.exp(-lambda_ * t), lambda determines the rate of exponential decay, where t is the time lag (in bars). A larger lambda means the impact of past volumes decays faster, while a smaller lambda implies a longer-lasting effect.
So in full.
The instantaneous term, alpha * volume , captures the immediate price impact from the current volume.
The transient term, sum of beta * volume * math.exp(-lambda_ * t) over the lookback period, models the cumulative, decaying effect of past volumes.
The total predicted_change combines these two components and is compared to the actual price change to compute an error term, math.pow(price_change - predicted_change, 2), which the script minimizes to optimize alpha, beta, and lambda.
Other parts of the script.
Objective function:
This is a wrapper function with a function to minimize so we get the best alpha, beta, and lambda values. In this case it is the Transient Impact Function, not something like a log-likelihood function, helps with efficiency for a high iteration count.
Finite Difference Gradient:
This function calculates the gradient of the objective function we spoke about. The gradient is like a directional derivative. Which is like the direction of the rate of change. Which is like the direction of the slope of a hill, we can go up or down a hill. It nudges around the parameter, and calculates the derivative of the parameter. The array of these nudged around parameters is what is returned after they are optimized.
Minimize:
This is the function that actually has the loop and calls the Finite Difference Gradient each time. Here is where the minimizing happens, how we go down the hill. If we are below a tolerance, we are at the bottom of the hill.
Applied
After an initial guess, we optimize the parameters and get the transient impact value. This number is huge, so we apply a log to it to make it more readable. From here we need some way to tell if the value is low or high. We shouldn’t use standard deviation because returns are not normally distributed, an IQR is similar and better for non normal data. We store past transient impact values in an array, so that way we can see the 25th and 90th percentiles of the data as a rolling value. If the current transient impact is above the 90th percentile, it is notably high. If below the 25th percentile, notably low. All of these values are plotted so we can use it as a tool.
Tool examples:
The idea around it is that when impact is low, there is room for big money to get size quickly and move prices around.
Here we see the price reacting in the IQR Bands. We see multiple examples where the value above the 90th percentile, the red line, corresponds to continuations in the trend, and below the 25th percentile, the purple line, corresponds to reversals. There is no guarantee these tools will be perfect, that is outlined in these situations, however there is clearly a correlation in this tool and trend.
This tool works on any timeframe, daily as we saw before, or lower like a two minute. The bands don’t represent a direction, like bullish or bearish, we need to determine that by interpreting price action. We see at open and at close there are the highest values for the transient impact. This is to be expected as these are the times with the highest volume of the trading day.
This works on futures as well as equities with the same context. Volume can be attributed to volatility as well. In volatile situations, more volatility comes in, and we can perceive it through the transient impact value.
Inputs
Users can enter the lookback value.
No tool is perfect, the transient impact value is also not perfect and should not be followed blindly. It is good to use any tool along with discretion and price action.

EMA 34 Crossover with Break Even Stop LossEMA 34 Crossover with Break Even Stop Loss Strategy
This trading strategy is based on the 34-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and aims to enter long positions when the price crosses above the EMA 34. The strategy is designed to manage risk effectively with a dynamic stop loss and take-profit mechanism.
Key Features:
EMA 34 Crossover:
The strategy generates a long entry signal when the closing price of the current bar crosses above the 34-period EMA, with the condition that the previous closing price was below the EMA. This crossover indicates a potential upward trend.
Risk Management:
Upon entering a trade, the strategy sets a stop loss at the low of the previous bar. This helps in controlling the downside risk.
A take profit level is set at a 10:1 risk-to-reward ratio, meaning the potential profit is ten times the amount risked on the trade.
Break-even Stop Loss:
As the price moves in favor of the trade and reaches a 3:1 risk-to-reward ratio, the strategy moves the stop loss to the entry price (break-even). This ensures that no loss will be incurred if the market reverses, effectively protecting profits.
Exit Conditions:
The strategy exits the trade when either the stop loss is hit (if the price drops below the stop loss level) or the take profit target is reached (if the price rises to the take profit level).
If the price reaches the break-even level (entry price), the stop loss is adjusted to lock in profits and prevent any loss.
Visualization:
The stop loss and take profit levels are plotted on the chart for easy visualization, helping traders track the status of their trade.
Trade Management Summary:
Long Entry: When price crosses above the 34-period EMA.
Stop Loss: Set to the low of the previous candle.
Take Profit: Set to a 10:1 risk-to-reward ratio.
Break-even: Stop loss is moved to entry price when a 3:1 risk-to-reward ratio is reached.
Exit: The trade is closed either when the stop loss or take profit levels are hit.
This strategy is designed to minimize losses by employing a dynamic stop loss and to maximize gains by setting a favorable risk-to-reward ratio, making it suitable for traders who prefer a structured, automated approach to risk management and trend-following.
Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System -FibonacciFluxAdaptive Fibonacci Pullback System (AFPS) - FibonacciFlux
This work is licensed under a Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0). Original concepts by FibonacciFlux.
Abstract
The Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System (AFPS) presents a sophisticated, institutional-grade algorithmic strategy engineered for high-probability trend pullback entries. Developed by FibonacciFlux, AFPS uniquely integrates a proprietary Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend engine (0.618, 1.618, 2.618 ratios) for harmonic volatility assessment, an Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) Channel providing dynamic market context, and a synergistic Multi-Timeframe (MTF) filter suite (RSI, MACD, Volume). This strategy transcends simple indicator combinations through its strict, multi-stage confluence validation logic. Historical simulations suggest that specific MTF filter configurations can yield exceptional performance metrics, potentially achieving Profit Factors exceeding 2.6 , indicative of institutional-level potential, while maintaining controlled risk under realistic trading parameters (managed equity risk, commission, slippage).

1. Introduction: Elevating Pullback Trading with Adaptive Confluence
Traditional pullback strategies often struggle with noise, false signals, and adapting to changing market dynamics. AFPS addresses these challenges by introducing a novel framework grounded in Fibonacci principles and adaptive logic. Instead of relying on static levels or single confirmations, AFPS seeks high-probability pullback entries within established trends by validating signals through a rigorous confluence of:
Harmonic Volatility Context: Understanding the trend's stability and potential turning points using the unique Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend.
Adaptive Market Structure: Assessing the prevailing trend regime via the AMA Channel.
Multi-Dimensional Confirmation: Filtering signals with lower-timeframe Momentum (RSI), Trend Alignment (MACD), and Market Conviction (Volume) using the MTF suite.
The objective is to achieve superior signal quality and adaptability, moving beyond conventional pullback methodologies.
2. Core Methodology: Synergistic Integration
AFPS's effectiveness stems from the engineered synergy between its core components:
2.1. Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend Engine: Utilizes specific Fibonacci ratios (0.618, 1.618, 2.618) applied to ATR, creating a multi-layered volatility envelope potentially resonant with market harmonics. The averaged and EMA-smoothed result (`smoothed_supertrend`) provides a robust, dynamic trend baseline and context filter.
// Key Components: Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend & Smoothing
average_supertrend = (supertrend1 + supertrend2 + supertrend3) / 3
smoothed_supertrend = ta.ema(average_supertrend, st_smooth_length)
2.2. Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) Channel: Provides dynamic market context. The `ama_midline` serves as a key filter in the entry logic, confirming the broader trend bias relative to adaptive price action. Extended Fibonacci levels derived from the channel width offer potential dynamic S/R zones.
// Key Component: AMA Midline
ama_midline = (ama_high_band + ama_low_band) / 2
2.3. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Filter Suite: An optional but powerful validation layer (RSI, MACD, Volume) assessed on a lower timeframe. Acts as a **validation cascade** – signals must pass all enabled filters simultaneously.
2.4. High-Confluence Entry Logic: The core innovation. A pullback entry requires a specific sequence and validation:
Price interaction with `average_supertrend` and recovery above/below `smoothed_supertrend`.
Price confirmation relative to the `ama_midline`.
Simultaneous validation by all enabled MTF filters.
// Simplified Long Entry Logic Example (incorporates key elements)
long_entry_condition = enable_long_positions and
(low < average_supertrend and close > smoothed_supertrend) and // Pullback & Recovery
(close > ama_midline and close > ama_midline) and // AMA Confirmation
(rsi_filter_long_ok and macd_filter_long_ok and volume_filter_ok) // MTF Validation
This strict, multi-stage confluence significantly elevates signal quality compared to simpler pullback approaches.

3. Realistic Implementation and Performance Potential
AFPS is designed for practical application, incorporating realistic defaults and highlighting performance potential with crucial context:
3.1. Realistic Default Strategy Settings:
The script includes responsible default parameters:
strategy('Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System - FibonacciFlux', shorttitle = "AFPS", ...,
initial_capital = 10000, // Accessible capital
default_qty_type = strategy.percent_of_equity, // Equity-based risk
default_qty_value = 4, // Default 4% equity risk per initial trade
commission_type = strategy.commission.percent,
commission_value = 0.03, // Realistic commission
slippage = 2, // Realistic slippage
pyramiding = 2 // Limited pyramiding allowed
)
Note: The default 4% risk (`default_qty_value = 4`) requires careful user assessment and adjustment based on individual risk tolerance.
3.2. Historical Performance Insights & Institutional Potential:
Backtesting provides insights into historical behavior under specific conditions (always specify Asset/Timeframe/Dates when sharing results):
Default Performance Example: With defaults, historical tests might show characteristics like Overall PF ~1.38, Max DD ~1.16%, with potential Long/Short performance variance (e.g., Long PF 1.6+, Short PF < 1).
Optimized MTF Filter Performance: Crucially, historical simulations demonstrate that meticulous configuration of the MTF filters (particularly RSI and potentially others depending on market) can significantly enhance performance. Under specific, optimized MTF filter settings combined with appropriate risk management (e.g., 7.5% risk), historical tests have indicated the potential to achieve **Profit Factors exceeding 2.6**, alongside controlled drawdowns (e.g., ~1.32%). This level of performance, if consistently achievable (which requires ongoing adaptation), aligns with metrics often sought in institutional trading environments.
Disclaimer Reminder: These results are strictly historical simulations. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Achieving high performance requires careful parameter tuning, adaptation to changing markets, and robust risk management.
3.3. Emphasizing Risk Management:
Effective use of AFPS mandates active risk management. Utilize the built-in Stop Loss, Take Profit, and Trailing Stop features. The `pyramiding = 2` setting requires particularly diligent oversight. Do not rely solely on default settings.
4. Conclusion: Advancing Trend Pullback Strategies
The Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System (AFPS) offers a sophisticated, theoretically grounded, and highly adaptable framework for identifying and executing high-probability trend pullback trades. Its unique blend of Fibonacci resonance, adaptive context, and multi-dimensional MTF filtering represents a significant advancement over conventional methods. While requiring thoughtful implementation and risk management, AFPS provides discerning traders with a powerful tool potentially capable of achieving institutional-level performance characteristics under optimized conditions.

Log Regression Oscillator Channel [BigBeluga]
This unique overlay tool blends logarithmic trend analysis with dynamic oscillator behavior. It projects RSI, MFI, or Stochastic lines directly into a log regression channel on the price chart — offering an intuitive way to detect overbought/oversold momentum within the broader price structure.
🔵Key Features:
Logarithmic Regression Channel:
➣ Draws a trend-based channel using logarithmic regression, adapting to price growth curvature over time.
➣ Features upper, lower, and optional midline boundaries to visualize trend flow and range extremes.
Oscillator Overlay (RSI / MFI / Stochastic):
➣ Projects your chosen oscillator inside the channel using dynamic polylines.
➣ Allows switching between RSI, Money Flow Index, or Stochastic for versatile momentum insight.
Threshold-Based Scaling:
➣ The top and bottom of the channel represent traditional oscillator thresholds (e.g., RSI 70/30).
➣ Users can modify the scale in settings to customize what "overbought" or "oversold" means visually.
Signal Line Integration:
➣ Adds a yellow moving average (signal line) for smoother confirmation of oscillator turns.
➣ Helps identify divergence, momentum shifts, and fakeouts with better clarity.
Live Oscillator Readout:
➣ Displays the real-time oscillator value at the right edge of the chart.
➣ Ensures traders stay aware of current momentum levels without switching panels.
🔵Usage:
Momentum Context:
➣ When the oscillator touches the upper regression band, it may signal local overbought pressure.
➣ Touching the lower band may indicate oversold conditions within the current log trend.
Divergence Detection:
➣ Use the oscillator’s behavior relative to the channel slope to spot divergence from price.
➣ For example, RSI rising inside a falling channel can flag early trend shifts.
Trend-Sensitive Entries:
➣ Combine oscillator signals with log channel direction to filter trades in trend alignment.
➣ Signal line crossovers inside the channel act as early warning for momentum turns.
The Log Regression Oscillator Channel transforms how traders view classic momentum tools. By embedding oscillators into a logarithmic trend structure, it offers unmatched clarity on momentum positioning relative to price expansion. Ideal for swing traders, mean-reverters, or trend followers looking to sharpen entries and exits with style.
Volume Flow with Bollinger Bands and EMA Cross SignalsThe Volume Flow with Bollinger Bands and EMA Cross Signals indicator is a custom technical analysis tool designed to identify potential buy and sell signals based on several key components:
Volume Flow: This component combines price movement and trading volume to create a signal that indicates the strength or weakness of price movements. When the price is rising with increasing volume, it suggests strong buying activity, whereas falling prices with increasing volume indicate strong selling pressure.
Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands consist of three lines:
The Basis (middle line), which is a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the price over a set period.
The Upper Band, which is the Basis plus a multiple of the standard deviation (typically 2).
The Lower Band, which is the Basis minus a multiple of the standard deviation. Bollinger Bands help identify periods of high volatility and potential overbought/oversold conditions. When the price touches the upper band, it might indicate that the market is overbought, while touching the lower band might indicate oversold conditions.
EMA Crossovers: The script includes two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
Fast EMA: A shorter-term EMA, typically more sensitive to price changes.
Slow EMA: A longer-term EMA, responding slower to price changes. The crossover of the Fast EMA crossing above the Slow EMA (bullish crossover) signals a potential buy opportunity, while the Fast EMA crossing below the Slow EMA (bearish crossover) signals a potential sell opportunity.
Background Color and Candle Color: The indicator highlights the chart's background with specific colors based on the signals:
Green background for buy signals.
Yellow background for sell signals. Additionally, the candles are colored green for buy signals and yellow for sell signals to visually reinforce the trade opportunities.
Buy/Sell Labels: Small labels are placed on the chart:
"BUY" label in green is placed below the bar when a buy signal is generated.
"SELL" label in yellow is placed above the bar when a sell signal is generated.
Working of the Indicator:
Volume Flow Calculation: The Volume Flow is calculated by multiplying the price change (current close minus the previous close) with the volume. This product is then smoothed with a Simple Moving Average (SMA) over a user-defined period (length). The result is then multiplied by a multiplier to adjust its sensitivity.
Price Change = close - close
Volume Flow = Price Change * Volume
Smoothed Volume Flow = SMA(Volume Flow, length)
The Volume Flow Signal is then: Smooth Volume Flow * Multiplier
This calculation represents the buying or selling pressure in the market.
Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands are calculated using the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing price (basis) and the Standard Deviation (stdev) of the price over a period defined by the user (bb_length).
Basis (Middle Band) = SMA(close, bb_length)
Upper Band = Basis + (bb_std_dev * Stdev)
Lower Band = Basis - (bb_std_dev * Stdev)
The upper and lower bands are plotted alongside the price to identify the price's volatility. When the price is near the upper band, it could be overbought, and near the lower band, it could be oversold.
EMA Crossovers: The Fast EMA and Slow EMA are calculated using the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) function. The crossovers are detected by checking:
Buy Signal (Bullish Crossover): When the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
Sell Signal (Bearish Crossover): When the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
The long_condition variable checks if the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA, and the short_condition checks if it crosses below.
Visual Signals:
Background Color: The background is colored green for a buy signal and yellow for a sell signal. This gives an immediate visual cue to the trader.
Bar Color: The candles are colored green for buy signals and yellow for sell signals.
Labels:
A "BUY" label in green appears below the bar when the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
A "SELL" label in yellow appears above the bar when the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
Summary of Buy/Sell Logic:
Buy Signal:
The Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA (bullish crossover).
Volume flow is positive, indicating buying pressure.
Background turns green and candles are colored green.
A "BUY" label appears below the bar.
Sell Signal:
The Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA (bearish crossover).
Volume flow is negative, indicating selling pressure.
Background turns yellow and candles are colored yellow.
A "SELL" label appears above the bar.
Usage of the Indicator:
This indicator is designed to help traders identify potential entry (buy) and exit (sell) points based on:
The interaction of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).
The strength and direction of Volume Flow.
Price volatility using Bollinger Bands.
By combining these components, the indicator provides a comprehensive view of market conditions, helping traders make informed decisions on when to enter and exit trades.

Bullish Trend if the 50 EMA is above VWAP. Only long entries are allowed when the 8 EMA crosses above the 50 EMA during that bullish phase.
Bearish Trend if the 50 EMA is below VWAP. Only short entries are allowed when the 8 EMA crosses below the 50 EMA during that bearish phase.
Intraday Focus: Trades are restricted to a user-defined session window (default 7:30 AM–11:30 AM), aligning entries/exits with peak intraday liquidity.
Exit Rule: Positions close automatically when the 8 EMA crosses back in the opposite direction of the entry.
Why It Works:
EMA + VWAP helps detect both immediate momentum (EMAs) and overall institutional bias (VWAP).
By confining trades to a set intraday window, the strategy aims to capture morning volatility while avoiding choppy afternoon or overnight sessions.
Customization:
Users can adjust EMA lengths, session times, or incorporate stops/targets for additional risk management.
It can be tested on various symbols and intraday timeframes to gauge performance and robustness.

### **2. Key Components of the Strategy**
#### **A. Range Filter (Trend Determination)**
- The **Range Filter** smooths price fluctuations and helps identify clear trends.
- It calculates an **adjusted price range** based on a **sampling period** and a **multiplier**, ensuring a dynamic trend-following approach.
- **Uptrends:** When the current price is above the range filter and the trend is strengthening.
- **Downtrends:** When the price falls below the range filter and momentum confirms the move.
#### **B. RSI (Relative Strength Index) as Momentum Confirmation**
- RSI is used to **filter out weak trades** and prevent entries during overbought/oversold conditions.
- **Buy Signals:** RSI is above a certain threshold (e.g., 50) in an uptrend.
- **Sell Signals:** RSI is below a certain threshold (e.g., 50) in a downtrend.
#### **C. ADX (Average Directional Index) for Trend Strength Confirmation**
- ADX ensures that trades are only taken when the trend has **sufficient strength**.
- Avoids trading in low-volatility, ranging markets.
- **Threshold (e.g., 25):** Only trade when ADX is above this value, indicating a strong trend.
#### **D. ATR (Average True Range) for Risk Management**
- **Stop Loss (SL):** Placed **one ATR below** (for long trades) or **one ATR above** (for short trades).
- **Take Profit (TP):** Set at a **3:1 reward-to-risk ratio**, using ATR to determine realistic price targets.
