Intraday Uncertainty [PhenLabs]📊 Intraday Uncertainty Version: PineScript™ v6 📌 Description The Intraday Uncertainty indicator offers traders a visual representation of market certainty/uncertainty during trading sessions. By comparing each price bar’s range to the Average True Range (ATR), it provides an intuitive way to gauge market conviction through a color gradient system. This tool helps traders identify periods of high certainty (potentially trending markets) versus high uncertainty (potentially choppy or volatile markets) without complex calculations or multiple indicators. The color-coded bars create an immediate visual cue to support decision-making in varying market conditions. 🚀 Points of Innovation Automated range-to-ATR ratio calculation that adapts to changing market volatility Dynamic color gradient system that visually distinguishes between certain and uncertain price action Customizable gradient clamping to fine-tune sensitivity to market conditions Integrated dashboard that provides clear interpretation guidance Position-flexible legend that accommodates different chart layouts Highly optimized for performance with minimal calculation overhead 🔧 Core Components ATR Calculation: Measures market volatility using a configurable lookback period Range-to-ATR Ratio: Compares current bar’s high-low range against average volatility Gradient Mapping System: Converts numerical uncertainty values into an intuitive color scale Dashboard Legend: Provides clear interpretation guidance with customizable positioning 🔥 Key Features Bar Coloring: Instantly identifies market certainty levels through intuitive color gradients Customizable ATR Period: Adjust sensitivity to historical volatility based on trading style Gradient Clamping: Fine-tune the color sensitivity using the Range/ATR multiplier Color Customization: Personalize the color scheme to match your chart aesthetics Informative Dashboard: Quickly interpret color meanings with the optional on-chart legend Flexible Display Options: Customize dashboard position and text size for your chart layout 🎨 Visualization Color Gradient: Bars colored on a spectrum from green (high certainty) to red (high uncertainty) Dashboard Legend: Optional on-chart guide explaining the color interpretation Color Intensity: Stronger colors indicate more extreme certainty/uncertainty levels At-a-glance Interpretation: Quickly identify market conviction without analyzing numbers 📖 Usage Guidelines Calculation Settings ATR Period Default: 14 Range: 1+ Description: Controls the lookback period for ATR calculation. Lower values increase sensitivity to recent volatility, while higher values provide more stability. Gradient Clamp (Range/ATR Multiplier) Default: 2.0 Range: 0.1+ Description: Sets the maximum Range/ATR ratio for gradient scaling. Ranges above this value display the end color (high uncertainty). Color Settings Gradient Start Color (High Certainty) Default: Green Description: Color representing high market certainty (low Range/ATR ratio) Gradient End Color (Low Certainty) Default: Red Description: Color representing low market certainty (high Range/ATR ratio) Dashboard Settings Show Dashboard Legend Default: True Description: Toggles the visibility of the on-chart interpretation guide Dashboard Position Options: top_right, top_left, bottom_right, bottom_left, middle_right, middle_left Default: bottom_right Description: Controls the placement of the dashboard on your chart Dashboard Text Size Options: tiny, small, normal, large, huge Default: normal Description: Adjusts the text size of the dashboard for readability ✅ Best Use Cases Identifying potential trend shifts when certainty levels change dramatically Confirming trend strength through consistent certainty levels Detecting choppy/sideways markets with persistent high uncertainty Filtering trading signals from other indicators based on certainty levels Gauging market conviction behind price breakouts or pullbacks Optimizing entry/exit timing based on certainty/uncertainty transitions ⚠️ Limitations Does not predict future price direction, only measures current bar certainty May provide false signals during news events or unexpected volatility spikes Requires context within the broader market environment for optimal interpretation Color interpretation is relative rather than absolute across different securities ATR-based calculation means sensitivity varies across different timeframes 💡 What Makes This Unique Simplicity: Single visual indicator that doesn’t require multiple technical tools Adaptability: Automatically adjusts to changing market volatility conditions Contextual Analysis: Provides market conviction context beyond just price movement Intuitive Design: Color-based system that requires minimal learning curve Efficiency: Lightweight calculation that doesn’t impact chart performance 🔬 How It Works 1. ATR Calculation: Calculates the Average True Range using the specified period Establishes a baseline for normal market volatility 2. Range Analysis: Measures each bar’s high-low range Compares this range to the current ATR value to create a ratio 3. Gradient Mapping: Converts the Range/ATR ratio to a normalized value between 0 and 1 Maps this value onto a color gradient between the start and end colors Applies the resulting color to the price bar 4. Dashboard Creation: Constructs an information panel on the last visible bar Populates it with color samples and interpretation guidance 💡 Note: This indicator works best when used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools rather than in isolation. The certainty/uncertainty measure provides context for your trading decisions but should not be the sole basis for entries and exits. Consider using higher certainty periods for trend-following strategies and exercise caution during periods of high uncertainty.

Advanced Choppiness Indicator with CPMA "The Advanced Choppiness Indicator with CPMA is a technical analysis tool designed to assist traders in identifying choppy market conditions and determining trend direction. It combines two key components: the Choppiness Index and a Custom Price Moving Average (CPMA). The Choppiness Index is calculated using the Average True Range (ATR), which measures market volatility. It compares the ATR to the highest high and lowest low over a specified period. A higher Choppiness Index value indicates choppier market conditions, while a lower value suggests smoother and more directional price movements. The CPMA is a custom moving average that takes into account various price types, including the close, high, low, and other combinations. It calculates the average of these price types over a specific length. The CPMA provides a smoother trend line that can help identify support and resistance levels more accurately than traditional moving averages. When using this indicator, pay attention to the following elements: Yellow range boxes: These indicate choppy zones, where market conditions are characterized by low momentum and erratic price action. Avoid entering trades during these periods. Histogram bars: Green bars suggest an uptrend, while red bars indicate a downtrend. These bars are based on the CPMA and can help confirm the prevailing trend direction. CPMA angle: The angle of the CPMA line provides further insight into the trend. A positive angle indicates an uptrend, while a negative angle suggests a downtrend. Choppiness thresholds: The indicator includes user-defined thresholds for choppiness. Values above the high threshold indicate high choppiness, while values below the low threshold suggest low choppiness. Trade decisions: Consider the information provided by the indicator to make informed trading decisions. Avoid trading during choppy zones and consider entering trades in the direction of the prevailing trend. Remember that the indicator's parameters, such as ATR length and CPMA length, can be adjusted to suit your trading preferences and timeframe. However, it's important to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and your trading strategy for comprehensive market analysis." By combining the Choppiness Index, CPMA, and other visual cues, this indicator aims to help traders identify suitable trading conditions and make more informed decisions based on market trends and volatility.

Choppy Market EMA Identification This indicator could be used to identify choppy Market Conditions based on the EMA. It is an EMA that could be configured to only show up, if the last 1..n candles are NOT crossing the EMA in any direction. I figured out that lower timeframes ( < 30 min) often the price bounces around the 200 EMA and gives lot of false signals using different strategies. So i decided to write a small indicator to avoid taking trades in those market conditions. The Indicator could be configured for the length of the EMA and how many crosses must be happened in the defined numbers of candles.

Choppiness Index Tile A simple tile on the chart that indicates the choppiness index on the chart for the chart's timeframe. The index tile will show 3 different colors based on the value of the choppiness index. 61.8 for the high threshold and 38.2 for the lower threshold.

Ehlers Squelch Indicator [CC]The Squelch Indicator was created by John Ehlers (Stocks & Commodities V. 18:9 (42-46)) and this indicator is a variation of his Market Mode Indicator and its purpose is the same as in it determines if the market is trending or in a choppy market. If this indicator is at the 1 level then this means the market is trending and if it is at 0 then the market is choppy. I would recommend to adjust the squelch variable to find a setting that works well for you. If you want to avoid more choppy markets then adjust the squelch variable to a lower amount and vice versa. I have included basic buy and sell signals so buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red. Let me know if there are any other indicators you would like to see me publish!

Ehlers Market Mode Indicator [CC]The Market Mode Indicator was created by John Ehlers (Rocket Science For Traders pgs 114-117) and this is a handy tool that will tell you if the market is currently in a cycle or a trend. When the current market is in a cycle or choppy state then the indicator will read 0 and when it is in a trend then it will read 1. He uses some advanced digital signal processing to figure out the current trend and for how long it has been trending. I have included buy and sell signals using the trendline and so buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red. Let me know if this indicator is useful for you. Let me know if there are any other indicators you would like to see me publish!

Price Cross Range Strength Purpose: This script shows when price is in a range or trending. When the green line rises above the threshold the price is trending. When the green line falls below the threshold it's ranging. You may try adjusting the lookback way far back to find more areas of resistance. Logic: It shows how many instances the current price has been crossed in the past measured bars. The logic is that any price area that has been crossed many times is a strong area where ranging occurs. Ideas: 1. Can be used as a dynamic length to other moving averages.
