Price and Volume Stochastic Divergence [MW]Introduction
This indicator creates signals of interest for entering and exiting long and short positions on equities. It primarily uses up and down trends defined by the change in cumulative volume with some filtering provided by a short period exponential moving average (9 EMA by default).
Settings
Moving Average Period : The moving average over which the cumulative volume delta is calculated. Default: 14
Short Period EMA : The EMA used to represent price action, and is used to generate the EMA Delta line. Default: 27 (3*3*3)
Long Period EMA : The second EMA used to calculate the EMA Delta line. Default: 108 (2*2*3*3*3)
Stochastic K Value : The value used for stochastic curve smoothing. Default: 3
Dot Size : The diameter of the larger indicator. Default: 10
Dot Transparency : The transparency level of the outer ring of the primary BUY/SELL signal. Default: 50 (0 is opaque, 100 is transparent)
Band Distance from 0 to 100 : The upper and lower band distance. Default: 20
Calculations
The cumulative volume delta (CVD) is calculated using candle bodies and wicks. For a red candle, buying volume is calculated by multiplying the volume by the spread percentage of the average of the top and bottom wicks, while Selling Volume is calculated multiplying the volume by the spread percentage of the average of the top and bottom wicks - in addition to the spread percentage of the candle body.
For a green candle, buying volume is calculated by multiplying the volume by the spread percentage of the average of the top and bottom wicks - plus the spread percentage of the candle body - while Selling Volume is calculated using only the spread percentage average of the top and bottom wicks.
Once we have the CVD, we can then perform a stochastic calculation of the CVD value.
stochastic calculation = (current value - lowest value in period) / (highest value in period - lowest value in period)
We’ll do the same stochastic calculation for the short term EMA (27 EMA default) as well as for the difference between the short term and long term EMA.
When the stochastic CVD value is rising from zero and the short term EMA stochastic value equals 100, then it’s a major bullish signal. When the stochastic CVD value is falling from 100 and the short term EMA stochastic value equals 0, then it’s a major bearish signal.
Sometimes, after a bullish or bearish signal, the stochastic CVD will reverse direction triggering a new opposing signal.
How to Interpret
The CVD indicates when there is either more buying than selling or vice versa. A value over 50 for the stochastic CVD curve represents more buying taking place. A value below 50 represents more selling. One might intuitively believe that when there is more buying volume than selling volume that the price would follow suit. This is not always the case.
Most of the time buying volume will precede consistent price movement upwards, and selling volume will precede consistent price movement downwards. When this divergence occurs, the indicator generates a signal. When this divergence begins to fail, and buying or selling volume reverses, then another signal is generated indicating that the buying/selling impulse is headed back into the direction of price action.
These interactions are visually represented on the chart with the coral line that represents CVD, and the yellow line that represents the EMA, or the average price. When the coral line goes up and the yellow line stays down, that’s the BUY signal. When the coral line goes down and the yellow line stays up, that’s the sell signal. When the coral line switches direction, the chart generates another signal showing that volume is moving in a direction that supports the price.
The orange line represents the stochastic representation of the difference between the short EMA (27 by default) and the long EMA (108 by default). EMA differences is a method that can be used to define a trend. When a short term EMA is above a longer term EMA, that may represent a bullish trend. When it is below, that may represent a bearish trend. When all 3 lines are rising or falling in the same direction at the same time, it tends to indicate a movement that has the potential to continue.
Other Usage Notes and Limitations
It's important for traders to be aware of the limitations of any indicator and to use them as part of a broader, well-rounded trading strategy that includes risk management, fundamental analysis, and other tools that can help with reducing false signals, determining trend direction, and providing additional confirmation for a trade decision. Diversifying strategies and not relying solely on one type of indicator or analysis can help mitigate some of these risks.
This indicator can be paired with the MW Volume Impulse indicator if it is desired to see the actual buying and selling cumulative volume deltas. Also, in many cases, the BUY and SELL signals tend to correspond with Keltner Bands (ATR Bands) becoming extended. Lastly, volume weighted average price (VWAP) along with other macro events can impact price and negate signals. To view VWAP lines, you may choose to use the Multi VWAP or Multi VWAP for Gaps indicator to help ensure that the signals you see in this indicator are not being affected by VWAP lines.
Cicli
PCTR - Pi Cycle Top Risk [Logue]Pi-cycle Top Risk (PCTR) - The PCTR indicator uses divergence of the Pi-cycle top indicator display the risk that a macro top in Bitcoin (BTC) is near. The Pi-cycle top indicator is simply the cross of the 111-day moving average above a 2x multiple of the 350-day moving average of the BTC price. While there is no fundamental reasoning behind why this works, it has worked to indicate previous bitcoin tops by taking advantage of the cyclicality of the BTC price and measurement overextension of BTC price. This indicator triggers a top signal when the fast moving average (111-day) crosses above the 2x multiple of the slow moving average (350-day).
What's interesting is the indicator can also signal a bottom when the divergence of the fast moving average is at an extreme versus the slow moving average. The indicator signals a bottom when the fast MA is 66% away from the slow MA value.
Both the top and bottom signals are clearly shown on the chart on a scale from 100 to 0.
Rate of Change Suite [QuantraSystems]Rate of Change Suite
Introduction
The "Rate of Change Suite" (𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮) refines traditional RoC concepts by incorporating additional elements that provide more nuanced views of market trends, potential reversions, and momentum shifts.
Its main benefits are that it allows traders to detect momentum changes and frontrun trend shifts.
The suite is designed to be highly adaptable, catering to various trading styles, timeframes and market conditions. It is comprised of 3 metrics:
The RoC base line plots the rate of change, the Signal Histogram to confirm trends, and the Signal Confirmation Oscillator to inform reversal probabilities. For the early detection of trend shifts, the 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 is a comprehensive tool for the toolkit of modern traders.
A core component of the 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 is the ability to apply its processing techniques to any other indicator found on TradingView - essentially leveraging the signal power of existing analysis methods. This is achieved by modifying the ‘Source’ input.
Legend
𝓡𝓸𝓒 base line: The primary component of the suite, the RoC Line, offers a direct view of market momentum. An upward trending RoC line informs the potential for a long position, while a downward trend might signal the opportunity for a short position. Both include a secondary confirmation by the color change of the line itself. The Heikin Ashi transformed version of the RoC line provides greater resistance to rapid movements, or outliers.
Signal Histogram: This feature works in tandem with the base RoC Line, providing an additional third confirmation of trends. A rising histogram supports the presence of an upward trend. Conversely, a declining histogram aligns with downward trends.
Signal Confirmation Oscillator: This dotted-line is crucial for detecting peaks or troughs in market momentum: These can precede reversals or shifts in the prevailing trend. Traders can use this signal to anticipate and prepare for potential changes quicker than others.
Case Study
Primarily a tool to follow trends, the 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 implies much more – you can trade with a confirmed trend signal entry and a mean reversion signal for the exit:
Here we see two practical cases of the 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 on the 1h BTC chart.
In the first scenario, the trader waits for three confirmations from the indicator.
The 𝓡𝓸𝓒 baseline to lead the run and looks for confirmation two and three:
𝓡𝓸𝓒 base line color shifts
and the Signal Histogram follows past the null midline.
The trader has adjusted their risk beforehand and enters the long position.
The 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 shows traders when to take profit:
The Signal Confirmation Oscillator (SCO, dotted line) moves beyond the 𝓡𝓸𝓒 baseline and the Signal Histogram. The trader can take 50% of the profit already.
The trader waits patiently, and if the SCO reverses, the rest of the position is closed.
The same works inversely for the second trade, which successfully frontran the decline shortly after.

Notes
Quantra Standard Value Contents:
The Heikin-Ashi (HA) candle visualization smoothes out the signal line to provide more informative insights into momentum and trends. This allows earlier entries and exits by observing the indicator values transformed by the HA.
Various visualization options are available to adjust the indicator to the user’s preference: Aside from HA, a classic line, or a hybrid of both.
A special feature of Quantra’s indicators is that they are probabilistically built - therefore they work well as confluence and can easily be stacked to increase signal accuracy.
To add to Quantra's indicators’ utility we have added the option to change the price bars’ colors based on different signals:
Choose Mode for Coloring
Trend Following (Indicator above mid line counts as uptrend, below is downtrend)
Extremes (Everything beyond the SD bands is highlighted to signal mean reversion)
Candles (Color of HA candles as barcolor)
Reversions (Only for HA) (Reversion Signals via the triangles if HA candles change trend while beyond the SD bands, high probability entries/exits)
Divergence Sensitivity: Quantra’s 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 is finely tuned to detect divergences, a key feature for identifying possible trend reversals.
Trend Following and Reversions: Primarily a tool for trend following, the 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 is also adept at spotting potential reversions and slowdowns in momentum.
Range Trading Compatibility: In its Heikin Ashi Candles mode, the suite becomes particularly effective for range trading strategies.
High Customizability: Traders can customize the suite with various visualization options, including classic line representation, HA transformation, and bar coloring. These can be based on Heikin Ashi Candles or Trend Following approaches, providing flexibility to adapt to different trading scenarios.
Methodology
The 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 is built on a foundation of functions that define and calculate the Rate of Change. They employ a variety of moving average types (SMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, WMA, etc.) which can be selected to optimize the RoC line.
A bespoke function to calculate Heikin-Ashi values is engineered to offer a more consistent view of the trend.
The Signal Histogram is derived by mathematically processing the base RoC signal. The Signal Confirmation Oscillator is based on a modified formula, adjusted to align with the RoC dynamics.
With a range of customization options for its visual presentation, including color schemes and display styles, the 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 is designed to cater to both trend following indications as well as finding signals for mean reversion trades. This multifaceted approach enables the 𝓡𝓸𝓒 𝓢𝓾𝓲𝓽𝓮 to allow the trader to combine signals of both types to de-risk his positions.

All above settings are configurable.
Expected Daily Range @shrilss This indicator provides traders with insights into potential price movements based on statistical analysis of historical data. It calculates expected high and low price levels for the current trading day, as well as maximum expected high and low levels, aiding traders in setting appropriate entry and exit points.
This indicator utilizes the previous day's open and close prices to establish a midpoint, around which the expected price range is calculated. By factoring in a user-defined standard deviation multiplier, traders can adjust the sensitivity of the expected price levels to market volatility.
The script plots the previous day's midpoint, along with the expected high and low price levels for the current day. Additionally, it offers insights into potential maximum price fluctuations by plotting the maximum expected high and low levels.
GKD-C PA Adaptive Fisher Transform [Loxx]The Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C PA Adaptive Fisher Transform is a confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System."
█ GKD-C PA Adaptive Fisher Transform
Phase Accumulation Adaptive Fisher Transform is an adaptive Fisher Transform using a modified version of Ehlers Phase Accumulation Cycle Period. This version of Phase Accumulation Cylce Period accepts as inputs: 1) total number of cycles you wish to inject into the calculation, this works as a multiplier so the higher this number, the longer the period output; 2) filter is to change the alpha value of the final smother before returning the period output.
What is the Phase Accumulation Cycle?
The phase accumulation method of computing the dominant cycle is perhaps the easiest to comprehend. In this technique, we measure the phase at each sample by taking the arctangent of the ratio of the quadrature component to the in-phase component. A delta phase is generated by taking the difference of the phase between successive samples. At each sample we can then look backwards, adding up the delta phases.When the sum of the delta phases reaches 360 degrees, we must have passed through one full cycle, on average.The process is repeated for each new sample.
The phase accumulation method of cycle measurement always uses one full cycle’s worth of historical data.This is both an advantage and a disadvantage.The advantage is the lag in obtaining the answer scales directly with the cycle period.That is, the measurement of a short cycle period has less lag than the measurement of a longer cycle period. However, the number of samples used in making the measurement means the averaging period is variable with cycle period. longer averaging reduces the noise level compared to the signal.Therefore, shorter cycle periods necessarily have a higher out- put signal-to-noise ratio.
What is Fisher Transform?
The Fisher Transform is a technical indicator created by John F. Ehlers that converts prices into a Gaussian normal distribution.
The indicator highlights when prices have moved to an extreme, based on recent prices. This may help in spotting turning points in the price of an asset. It also helps show the trend and isolate the price waves within a trend.

Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
8. Metamorphosis - a technical indicator that produces a compound signal from the combination of other GKD indicators*
*(not part of the NNFX algorithm)
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, and the Average Directional Index (ADX).
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
What is an Metamorphosis indicator?
The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, or GKD-E slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v2.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
6. GKD-M - Metamorphosis module (Metamorphosis, Number 8 in the NNFX algorithm, but not part of the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data to A backtest module wherein the various components of the GKD system are combined to create a trading signal.
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Multi-Ticker CC Backtest
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Advance Trend Pressure as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: uf2018
Continuation: Coppock Curve
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Metamorphosis: Baseline Optimizer
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, GKD-M, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD system.

GKD-C APA Adaptive Fisher Transform [Loxx]The Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C APA Adaptive Fisher Transform is a confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System."
█ GKD-C APA Adaptive Fisher Transform
APA Adaptive Fisher Transform is an adaptive cycle Fisher Transform using Ehlers Autocorrelation Periodogram Algorithm to calculate the dominant cycle period.
What is an adaptive cycle, and what is Ehlers Autocorrelation Periodogram Algorithm?
From Ehlers' book Cycle Analytics for Traders Advanced Technical Trading Concepts by John F. Ehlers , 2013, page 135:
"Adaptive filters can have several different meanings. For example, Perry Kaufman’s adaptive moving average ( KAMA ) and Tushar Chande’s variable index dynamic average ( VIDYA ) adapt to changes in volatility . By definition, these filters are reactive to price changes, and therefore they close the barn door after the horse is gone.The adaptive filters discussed in this chapter are the familiar Stochastic , relative strength index ( RSI ), commodity channel index ( CCI ), and band-pass filter.The key parameter in each case is the look-back period used to calculate the indicator. This look-back period is commonly a fixed value. However, since the measured cycle period is changing, it makes sense to adapt these indicators to the measured cycle period. When tradable market cycles are observed, they tend to persist for a short while.Therefore, by tuning the indicators to the measure cycle period they are optimized for current conditions and can even have predictive characteristics.
The dominant cycle period is measured using the Autocorrelation Periodogram Algorithm. That dominant cycle dynamically sets the look-back period for the indicators. I employ my own streamlined computation for the indicators that provide smoother and easier to interpret outputs than traditional methods. Further, the indicator codes have been modified to remove the effects of spectral dilation.This basically creates a whole new set of indicators for your trading arsenal."

What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, and the Average Directional Index (ADX).
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
What is an Metamorphosis indicator?
The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, or GKD-E slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v2.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
6. GKD-M - Metamorphosis module (Metamorphosis, Number 8 in the NNFX algorithm, but not part of the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data to A backtest module wherein the various components of the GKD system are combined to create a trading signal.
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Multi-Ticker CC Backtest
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Advance Trend Pressure as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: uf2018
Continuation: Coppock Curve
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Metamorphosis: Baseline Optimizer
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, GKD-M, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD system.

Crypto Stablecoin Supply - Indicator [presentTrading]█ Introduction and How it is Different
The "Stablecoin Supply - Indicator" differentiates itself by focusing on the aggregate supply of major stablecoins—USDT, USDC, and DAI—rather than traditional price-based metrics. Its premise is that fluctuations in the total supply of these stablecoins can serve as leading indicators for broader market movements, offering traders a unique vantage point to anticipate shifts in market sentiment.
BTCUSD 6h for recent bull market
BTCUSD 8h
█ Strategy, How it Works: Detailed Explanation
🔶 Data Collection
The strategy begins with the collection of the closing supply for USDT, USDC, and DAI stablecoins. This data is fetched using a specified timeframe (**`tfInput`**), allowing for flexibility in analysis periods.
🔶 Supply Calculation
The individual supplies of USDT, USDC, and DAI are then aggregated to determine the total stablecoin supply within the market at any given time. This combined figure serves as the foundation for the subsequent statistical analysis.
🔶 Z-Score Computation
The heart of the indicator's strategy lies in the computation of the Z-Score, which is a statistical measure used to identify how far a data point is from the mean, relative to the standard deviation. The formula for the Z-Score is:
Z = (X - μ) / σ
Where:
- Z is the Z-Score
- X is the current total stablecoin supply (TotalStablecoinClose)
- μ (mu) is the mean of the total stablecoin supply over a specified length (len)
- σ (sigma) is the standard deviation of the total stablecoin supply over the same length
A moving average of the Z-Score (**`zScore_ma`**) is calculated over a short period (defaulted to 3) to smooth out the volatility and provide a clearer signal.
🔶 Signal Interpretation
The Z-Score itself is plotted, with its color indicating its relation to a defined threshold (0.382), serving as a direct visual cue for market sentiment. Zones are also highlighted to show when the Z-Score is within certain extreme ranges, suggesting overbought or oversold conditions.
Bull -> Bear
█ Trade Direction
- **Entry Threshold**: A Z-Score crossing above 0.382 suggests an increase in stablecoin supply relative to its historical average, potentially indicating bullish market sentiment or incoming capital flow into cryptocurrencies.
- **Exit Threshold**: Conversely, a Z-Score dropping below -0.382 may signal a reduction in stablecoin supply, hinting at bearish sentiment or capital withdrawal.
█ Usage
Traders can leverage the "Stablecoin Supply - Indicator" to gain insights into the underlying market dynamics that are not immediately apparent through price analysis alone. It is particularly useful for identifying potential shifts in market sentiment before they are reflected in price movements. By integrating this indicator with other technical analysis tools, traders can develop a more rounded and informed trading strategy.
█ Default Settings
- Timeframe Input (`tfInput`): Allows users to specify the timeframe for data collection, adding flexibility to the analysis.
- Z-Score Length (`len`): Set to 252 by default, representing the period over which the mean and standard deviation of the stablecoin supply are calculated.
- Color Coding: Uses distinct colors (green for bullish, red for bearish) to indicate the Z-Score's position relative to its thresholds, enhancing visual clarity.
- Extreme Range Fill: Highlights areas between defined high and low Z-Score thresholds with distinct colors to indicate potential overbought or oversold conditions.
By integrating considerations of stablecoin supply into the analytical framework, the "Stablecoin Supply - Indicator" offers a novel perspective on cryptocurrency market dynamics, enabling traders to make more nuanced and informed decisions.
Pivot Extremes BreakoutI created the "Pivot Extremes Breakout" (PEB) indicator to easily spot breakout zones using pivot points. This tool comes from my need to anticipate market direction and capitalize on breakouts. PEB uses the last two pivot points to predict price paths and highlights potential breakout areas, adjusting for any timeframe. It simplifies seeing where the market might move next with color-coded lines and zones, aiming to improve your trading decisions.
STABLECOINS DEPEG FINDERSTABLECOINS DEPEG FINDER
With this script, you will be able to understand how DePeg in stablecoins USDT, USDC, and FDUSD can influence the TOTAL Market Cap.
WHAT IS DEPEG?
DePeg occurs when a stablecoin loses its peg. It can't maintain the $1.00 price for a while (or anymore). Traders can use DePeg for high-quality trading both in Crypto and Stablecoins. Usually, a Negative DePeg (e.g., 0.98%) means you can buy Stablecoins at a 2% discount. This translates to a 2% gain when the Stablecoin returns to its peg. Additionally, a Positive DePeg could be a good moment for selling or withdrawal.
WHY DEPEG MATTERS IN THE CRYPTO SPACE
Depeg in Crypto markets is primarily a matter of "earning from small differences in peg." If well understood, it can help traders and analysts to spot whales' next moves. Usually, when a negative DePeg (below $1) occurs, it means whales are in a hurry to sell their Stablecoin tokens for Crypto Tokens. In this hurry, they sell Stablecoins at a discount. In the short term, a Crypto pump is likely planned, and they buy the next x100 token.
On the other hand, a positive DePeg (above $1) means whales are in a hurry to convert tokens into Stablecoins because they are heavily selling Crypto Tokens. This leads to them paying more for Stablecoins. Positive Depeg is more interesting than Negative DePeg. Usually, it signifies an important sell-off in the crypto environment, creating high tension to safeguard your hard-earned money. Whales hurry to convert altcoins and tokens into stablecoins, causing a Positive Depeg (they are willing to pay more to be safe). Positive DePeg is plotted as Intense Background Color.
Identifying 'areas' where this occurs could help traders and analysts understand this highly manipulative market better and take positions.
THE SCRIPT
This script will help traders and analysts understand when USDT, USDC, and FDUSD depegged and how the crypto market reacted. It comes with the possibility to check and plot backgrounds when there's Positive DePeg or Negative DePeg for USDT, USDC, or FDUSD.
It's pretty useful for data analysis. In the bottom-right part, you can check the actual stablecoin peg for the three Stablecoins:
- Highest Positive DePeg in a given BackTrace
- Average Positive DePeg in a given BackTrace
- Actual Peg for USDT, USDC, FDUSD
- Average Negative DePeg in a given BackTrace
- Lowest Negative DePeg in a given BackTrace
UNDERSTANDING THE BACKGROUND PLOT
NEGATIVE DEPEG
For each Stablecoin, negative DePeg is plotted as Translucent Background Color: USDT lime, USDC aqua, FDUSD grey. You can choose from settings whether it needs to be enabled or disabled for each token.
POSITIVE DEPEG
For each Stablecoin, positive DePeg is plotted as Intense Background Color: USDT lime, USDC aqua, FDUSD grey. You can choose from settings whether it needs to be enabled or disabled for each token.
USE CASE EXAMPLES
With this script you can plan to be alerted WHEN one of those stablecoin are depegging over a threesold. Than you can act accordingly.
BUY OPPORTUNITY
Let' suppose you want to see how USDC can influence Crypto Price when deppeged
I've setup signal to be plotted only for negative Depeg when USDC goes below 0.998. As you can see it was a very good and nice buy area for the entire crypto market
SELL OPPORTUNITY
Spot a selling point could be harder. In the example below let's see how USDC positive DePeg can show signal of Crypto dump earlier in daily TF
OHLC Statistical Mapping [Pro+] (Joshuuu)Description:
Dive into the intricate world of candlestick analysis with the OHLC Statistical Mapping Pro+! This collaboration with Joshuuu offers a closer look into the historical data of specific candles within an analyst’s chosen timeframe, providing insights for future time and price delivery. Incorporate this interactive tool into your Tradingview templates and revolutionize your strategies with data. This advanced indicator goes beyond conventional OHLC representation, incorporating the principles of Inner Circle Trader (ICT) to explore accumulation, manipulation, and distribution candle-by-candle.
ICT traders identify manipulation as the wick opposing to the candle’s close. Analysts can observe manipulation legs seen as a movement to trap market participants in the "wrong" direction, to anticipate a candle's distribution.
When price distributes, it expands for higher or lower prices. Analysts can therefore note distribution levels for a draw on liquidity, retracement, or reversal.
These levels will provide important information about orderflow when price trades through them and the sequence in which the delivery occurs.
Additionally, to amplify the price mapping, this tool plots the average Time at which its manipulation and distribution phases should complete. This feature allows traders to utilize historical Timings in conjunction with the price levels of manipulation and distribution.
As with any historical data driven tool, analysts should not expect past behaviour to match future performance. This tool was created with a data driven edge to bring attention to when candles are likely to turn after their manipulations, or retrace after completing set distributions.
Key Features:
Average Range Precision: Visualize candlestick data through a sophisticated line and label-based format, facilitating the identification of your manipulation, distribution, and time pivots. Enhance your comprehension of market volatility by graphing the average range of your selected candle timeframe. This metric acts as a compass, steering you towards potential support and resistance areas.
Tailored Timeframe Selection: Tailor your analysis by choosing a specific time frame that aligns with your trading strategy, enabling a focused exploration of the candle’s manipulation, distribution, and time in which both levels are hit.
Real-time Information Flow: Monitor market developments with instantaneous updates on candlestick statistics. Each candle updates the script with latest OHLC information providing continuous historical data computations, even on timeframes sub 1 minute.
Historical Mapping:
Easily backtest previous mappings by enabling the historical mapping feature. This feature allows traders to revisit and analyze past market scenarios, offering a valuable tool for refining and validating trading strategies. Choose to show historical labels or remove them, giving ultimate flexibility for journaling.
User-Intuitive Interface: Navigate effortlessly through the tool's interface, designed to accommodate advanced traders with keen passion for data driven precision. Effortlessly customize the display settings to match your preferences, ensuring a seamless and personalized experience.
Usage Guidance:
Add OHLC Statistical Mapping Pro to your Tradingview chart.
Choose up to 5 timeframes for the mapping to plot on your chart, be sure to adjust your style and visual preferences to differentiate the timeframes’ levels.
Observe how calculated manipulation, distributions, and delivery times align together with predetermined analysis.
Leverage this information with other models and insights to create a stronger narrative for your analysis

Astro: Celestial Body LongitudesThis is fork of the previous Astro: Planetary Longitudes indicator that now includes over a dozen different celestial bodies, made possible after the most recent update of the AstroLib library .
Celestial longitude is a measurement of the position of a celestial body in its orbit around the Sun, expressed in degrees of arc along the plane of the body's orbit. It is one of the fundamental coordinates used in astronomy to describe the position of a planet or other celestial object.
The concept of longitude is important in astrology, where it is used to determine the position of the planets in the zodiac. In this context, the longitude is measured along the ecliptic, which is the apparent path of the Sun on the celestial sphere. Astrologers use the position of the planets in the zodiac to make predictions and interpretations about personality traits, life events, earthquakes, market events, and other aspects of human experience.
This indicator includes geocentric/heliocentric longitude lines with retrograde identification, Vedic Nakshatras, and astrological zodiac & aspects for each of the celestial bodies. Hover over labels for additional information.
B4Signals Ichimoku Premium Addon Kyushu Sushi RollKyushu Ashi, one of the Ichimoku strategies, was initially presented in the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Weekly book by Goichi Hosoda.
<< Historical Context >>
During his time contributing market analysis to the Miyako Newspaper, traders faced the laborious task of manually recording daily open, close, high, and low price levels, alongside the five price values of Ichimoku (Tenkan sen, Kijun sen, Chiko span, Senko span A, Senko span B). With the absence of personal computers, this process was notably cumbersome. In response to traders' requests for a simplified analysis method, Goichi Hosoda introduced the Kyushu Ashi technique.
<< About Kyushu Ashi >>
Derived from Japanese, where "Kyu" denotes nine, "Shu" refers to week, and "Ashi" translates to candles, Kyushu Ashi aims to identify market reversals and trend continuations by leveraging Kihon Suchi time cycles. However, as stated in the original book, trading solely with Kyushu Ashi is not advisable; it is recommended to combine it with the Ichimoku's five lines for a comprehensive trading approach.
Our indicator enhances the Kyushu Ashi strategy by incorporating the original signals in a simplified manner showing up or down carrets in the legs. Additionally, it colors candles with no signals, enabling traders to spot areas of consolidation, continuation, and trend reversal effectively. Drawing inspiration from Fisher's Sushi Roll indicator, our tool identifies these trend changes and adds a trend cloud for the prevailing trend. This comprehensive approach maximizes the effectiveness of the Kyushu Ashi strategy and assists traders in making informed trading decisions.
This is an advanced version with the following features:
- Shows Kyushu Legs
- Shows Kyushu Leg signals
- Draws trend cloud based on Kyushu Legs
- Sends alerts when no Kyushu signal is present, alerting trader of consolidation
- Colors No Kyushu signal candles
- Draws dynamic consolidation zones for breakout identification
[Options Strategies] Selling Covered Calls and Puts (TSO) This trading indicator assists with traditional covered options trading strategies like Covered Calls, Covered Puts, and Cash Secured Puts. It also offers advanced features for trading options intelligently by utilizing options specific levels, such as BE (Break Even) and Strike (all visually shown on chart) in combination with S&R (Support and Resistance), Trend Lines, and other technical analysis tools such as MA (Moving Averages) and ATR Average True Range, all integrated within the indicator.
* Covered options approach over trading shares or options separately offers distinct advantages:
- Reduced Risk and Flexibility : Covered options strategy provides a more conservative approach by combining stock ownership with options trading. It reduces risk exposure compared to buying options outright or trading shares alone. Additionally, it offers flexibility in various market conditions.
- Profitability in Sideways Markets: Covered options allow for profitability in scenarios where the stock price is either moving optimally or remaining sideways. In contrast, just holding stocks might not yield significant gains in a sideways market, and buying options can result in losses due to time decay.
- Protection Against Price Movements: In covered options, if the stock price goes against the trade, the loss is mitigated by the premium received from selling the options. This provides a level of protection compared to other trading strategies where losses can accumulate more rapidly.

STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> S&R (Support and Resistance) or Trend Line broken, bounced off or simply near (if price is near/slightly crossing S&R/Trend Line > a bounce often takes place)
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Broken Resistance combined with a Trend Line up-bounce, confirmed by bullish 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept + stock assigned/sold at a higher price than it was purchased.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: stock sold at a slight loss with options contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a lower price than initially sold (since price went down and these are calls), so technically the loss is reduced by the partial Premium still kept from initially sold contracts at trade open.
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

>>> Early BTC: BTC (Buy to Close) before Expiration date if options premium/contract price already reduced by at least 50-90% (the reduced price is the profit, if premium lost 90% - only 10% will need to be paid to buy options out to close the trade) and if the stock price is nearing Resistance, Trend Line or big length moving average (like 200EMA) as a bounce may happen or even a potential reverse of the trend. If there is no trend reversal or a small correction bounce occurs, with further trend continuation > another Cash Secured Puts trade can be opened with new Expiration date and Strike.
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept, considering the Strike was never hit.
>>> Assignment with stock closing below Strike and above/near BE (Break Even): Premium received for selling contracts kept. NOTE: It is best to get rid of the stock ASAP to then open a new Cash Secured Puts trade with lower Strike and a new Expiration date.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a higher price than initially sold (since price went down and these are puts), the amount/difference in current contract price is the loss (as premium received + contract price increase is the total cost, which will have to be paid to buy the countracts out).
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> Options Wheel strategy combines Cash Secured Puts with Covered Calls, so a steady bullish trend is preferred with lower volatility.
>>> It's best to start with Cash Secured Puts until assignment hits (stocks purchased), then switch to Covered Calls until assignment hits (stocks sold) and so on.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept. Stock is assigned (purchased if Cash Secured Puts were sold | sold if Covered Calls were sold ).
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss)
>>> Assignment is the stop-loss for this strategy, which ends current trade and starts next one. It is not a direct loss, but could result a long unrealized losses if after stock purchase assignment it goes down for a while or even a complete loss if low-cap company is used and it goes out of business.
>>> BE/SL distance can still be increased/kept optimal: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established Trend Line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

HTF Candle ProjectionsThe HTF Candle Projections indicator shows a number of candles from a higher time frame (HTF) projected to the right of the candles in the current timeframe. This can be very useful if you want to analyze two different timeframes without the need to switching between the different timeframes.
This indicator is highly inspired by the HTF Power of Three indicator by @toodegrees but is fully free and open source, it also have support for showing more than just one candle in the projection. It is also inspired by the HTF Candle Insights (Expo) indicator by @Zeiierman but differ in the way that it update the HTF candles in real time and also have support for showing Open/High/Low projections that also updates in real time.

Bitcoin Price Based On ElectricityThis script Calculates the price of Bitcoin solely on the hashrate and the cost of electricity.
The calculation is quite conservative considering its based on the average cost of electricity globally and we are assuming that everyone is running the latest mining hardware, which is the most efficient and cost effective.
Under both of these assumptions the calculation for bitcoins price is almost identical to the price we are seeing now.
If we change the reward rate to 3.125 (Aprils reward amount) then the price of one bitcoin per cost of work will be around 100k.
I am sure I am missing some important numbers in this calculation, fees, start up costs etc. However, it is very interesting to see that the price of Bitcoin can be calculated almost perfectly based on the hashrate and cost of electricity.

[Excalibur][Pandora][Mosaic] Ultra Spectrum Analyzer@veryfid, you will always be remembered eternally...
ANCIENT MYTHOS AND LORE:
The retellings of "Pandora's Box" serve as a cautionary metaphor depicting an opened container (pithos - jar) that once held profound perils and evils — sufferings that are experienced around the world in various forms. The known and vague mythical box contents actually represent manifestation of evils, situational adversities, and human disparities that have been encountered throughout life for aeons. In contemporary times, a meager list of ordeals would include incidents of deceit, betrayal, corruption, oppression, greed, envy, depravity, conflict, mania, affliction, plague, and mortality. However, as the tale is told, kept and remaining inside the box was the essence of expectant hope (elpis), which may represent the optimism and resilience to overcome immense hardships.
There are other versions of the classic story where Pandora isn't actually the culprit, being her husband Epimetheus was the lid lifting perpetrator and the one who always and actually received the gift(s). Curiously, the interpreted Greek word ‘Pandora’ translated to English, can mean either "all-endowed" or "all-gifting". Much like Pandora herself, who was formed from clay of the earth, the jar also would have been most likely crafted from clay. Conceived as a made-to-order maiden for an arranged marriage, Pandora was given qualities of exquisite beauty, persuasive charm, all while being adorned with jewelry and fine clothing. Olympian premeditated preparations in the didactic fable of 'Works and Days' by Hesiod had blamable intent and would be later used for centuries as denigration of women/mothers. The rest of Hesiod's tale is even worse.
In reality, the entire contrived exploit of incarnating Pandora as a trojan temptress was solely intended as an instrument of infiltration and entrapment for delivery to Epimetheus as an arranged seductive snare. Being a man myself, I find it appalling how the antiquated writings of ancient morphological men have repeatedly ostracized women for many of the ailments of mankind. When in truth, it is far more often that despicable men are the recorded all time winning historical harbingers of global abysmal darkness by means of ideological treachery. Vast historical chronicles since antiquity have frequently recorded who the typical real-world villains truly are and are not. As the stories are told in the first place, it was dictator Zeus along with his Olympian conspirators, who intently implanted malicious spirits into a gifted receptacle to orchestrate planetary suffering and carnage on humankind.
PROLOGUE:
I believe, it is way past overdue to restore Pandora's name to a place of better standing. As I have been peaking into a theoretical pitcher of mathematic mysteria for years now, where no one else dares to look. Once upon a time, I pondered an opposite notion: What if Pandora was originally conceived to solve global problems instead of creating them? Maybe Pandora could have been wielded into existence to wage unrelenting and avenging retribution on every dominance hierarchy and each diabolical enemy intently hostile to humankind. My hypothetical version of Pandora would take the notion of "mors omnibus tyrannis" to a whole other fearsome magnitude. She would cause evil arrogant men to tremble with sheer horror... the kind of fear ALL false gods, despotic kings, tyrannical dictators, controligarchies, and criminal syndicates truly worry about at night. In my opinion, that would be a better fictional story worthy of retelling for aeons.
One unique goliath 21st century adversary is LAG and it must be subdued or minimized. This unyielding nemesis is also known as group delay, processing delay, and algorithmic latency. My eyes are locked onto this opponent with fixation that will never surrender a staring contest. The formidable creature lag is my daily arch enemy destined for defeat in battle. It's losing time after time and bar by bar during the past year of 2023. In my attempts to peer through the murky darkness of useless and deceptive information, I am confident that I have found more suitable answers to many current dilemmas of algorithmic lag.
The internet, using mathematics and the speed of light as a planetary beneficial advantage, has already performed wonders by drastically reducing the delay of dissemination of knowledge. This has garnered a mostly positive rapid acceleration of economic evolution. However, hierarchies of dark forces of chaos and subversion by the thousands lurking in the global shadows are not thrilled about well informed populations. In the present era, new spectrums of strife within planetary societies are being waged, one of the worst forms taking the hideous form of censorship. Other nefarious tactics are hindering economic progress with substantial negativity using heavily funded penetration and infiltration operations. Those sinister operational varieties are spanning psychological, cultural, educational, digital, financial, electoral, scientific, medical, biological, commercial, infrastructural, institutional, and organizational domains.
They are mistakenly meddling with the entire primordial order of planetary natural dynamics. The miscalculations from these malevolent CAUSES will be countered with EFFECTS of immense retaliatory primal veracity having equal or exceedingly more powerful opposition with overwhelming numbers in mass. It is a law embedded within the universe that supersedes ALL laws, known as 'causality'. Everyone, especially programmers, know exactly what to do with predatory infiltrating cockroaches... When tyranny becomes enforced law by agendized policies in any land, order = abs(DUTY) * pow(RIGHT) * exp(PEOPLE).
FUTURE ECONOMIC ADVERSARIAL CHALLENGES:
Just as programmers have to critically analyze our code for BUGS, a scrutinized analysis of the current world around us is at times necessary. It is an empirical statistical fact that a few percent of captains at the helm of industry, commerce, institutes, and governance are monetarily psychopathic. They are often hidden bugs operating within national systems. The subsequent economic consequences result in effects that aren't always clearly obvious to all. Here are a few global economic security issues...
Corrupted immoral code in national operation is an inevitable breakdown waiting to happen. In the harsh future to follow, old degenerate interdependent control systems will need to be dismantled and discarded, eventually succeeded by having resilient parallel arrangements with robust independent fidelity. The coming successive paradigm shifts would include future hardware and the hefty novel algorithms that will run on them afterwards. Evolution is inevitable! The internet must be upgraded and continually programmed securely to the near hardness of diamonds at multiple layers within the operational code to retain peaceful global integrity between international collaborations.
DigitalID is never going to fix an insecure vulnerable titanic network of devices full of holes taking in megatons of water from every direction. Weaponized digital mucking ID dead on arrival is certainly NOT a one size fits all solution and it still doesn't do diddly-squat to secure the internet's DNA as executable code. DigID's real purpose is to manage servitude digitally and keep citizens right where they want them, as subservient slaves.
There is a very specific reason why we have key chain rings in OUR pockets with numerous private keys evolving technologically over time to robustly safeguard individual locks we use every day, duh. AI becoming an artificial sentient hyper intelligence may sooner or later become a potential hazard, especially if it breaks AES192 into a thousand shards of glass. Perilous aspects from artilects will emerge and are coming swiftly. AI is already being weaponized and tasked to mind muzzle expressions of human consciousness.
Also, EMPs from the sun ARE an imminent planetary threat, and no amount of carbon taxation schemes inciting anthropomorphic climate hysteria originating from falsified modeling hocus-pocus is going to protect against extreme solar cycle related X-class phenomena. Our solar system candle called the sun, is not consistently energy irradiation stable if you just glance at SOHO images/video. There are very obvious cyclical frequencies within the dynamics of the sun's energetic activity that affect planets far beyond earth. The earth already has a built-in natural thermometer indicating that oceans have been rising very linearly for thousands of years since the last ice age, submerging entire ancient cities under coastal water dozens of meters.
BEAR with me and pardon my French translation, but I have the option to call major league climate BULLshite. There is no hardcore "anthropomorphic climate crisis" proof. It is a crisis in failed modeling that is insufficient to properly estimate colossal computations with dircet limited empirical data with enough accuracy to anticipate higly probable future outcomes. People deserve solid science instead of slanderous smackdowns and slighted statistics. 400ppm of atmospheric CO2 is nothing compared to previously existing 1600ppm concentrations acquired from ancient indirect historical observations at a time when early humans were hunter gatherers driving gas guzzlers.
Western climate-monger fortune tellers are scamming every nation on earth, betraying the collective human species worldwide by climate hype strangulation. Wait until the sheeple with dinner forks turn on the rabid wolves in shepherds's clothing; it has already begun. What these predatory profiteering fraudsters are not telling you is WATER (H2O) in earth's atmosphere is the all time dominating and potent greenhouse gas, always has been, not CO2. Dr. Willie Soon has explained it in the best of ways with clarity. Misleaders, banksterCorpses, and mediaPresstitutes are immensely involved in this hot model scheme and like keeping people right where they want them, force fed with mental filth with regularly scheduled socially engineered programming.
Beware of agendas and isms. The ESGovernanceAgenda is ready made economic coffin nails. I'll explain this very simply, a future green war on carbon is a silent war on carbon lifeforms and economies. Many of the smiling faces you can actually see on the world stage pulling levers are often the coldest blooded deceivers beyond anything you can ever imagine. In truth, corporate agents and policies are the greatest devastators to ecologies, while in concert, they are incessantly waging blame campaign agendas with subversive narratives by targeting consumers as the wrongdoers.
Why am I mentioning all these adversarial difficulties? Well, the intertangling myriads of tomorrow's "bundle of burdens" in a future box ALL have to be thoroughly analyzed, sifted through, and dealt with tenaciously now and in the future by generations to come in every nation state. Some days I wonder if Hesiod's fiction was taken from reality over 2000 years ago to WARN future world inhabitants. In the scope of economics, the series of incidents that have or will lead up to major world events, will need to have the frequency of related occurrences examined that lead up to crucial points in time historically. In order to prevent future disparities, our progeny will look backwards into history with ultra clarity and vigilance to see how corrupted society once was by hordes of overlords twisted by obsessive delusions of absolute power over the entire human species. There is no human race, only diverse genetic multiformity expressed from the DNA code of humankind exists.
We can't simply put the lid back on low entropy hydroCarbons and a broadband globalNet without having an implemented proven replacement or upgrade. It's far too late, leaving only wiser security chess moves forward as the only viable options. Nikola Tesla was dreaming of this daily in order to build every foundation of modern civilization that we now enjoy today and take for granted. Humanity still has to evolve by unlocking hidden secrets of mother nature. For instance, nations powered by endless geothermal electricity and deuterium fusion WILL solve a lot of the world's problems. Imagine our world dominantly powered by extreme abundant amounts of heavy water... Lady destiny awaits and begs for the future to be built securely, by eventual abandonment of antiquated wheelworks that eventually deserve to be hurled into the annihilatory dustbin of history.
SPECTRAL BURDENS:
Ephemeral 'spectral contents' are extremely difficult to decipher with the least amount of lag, especially while they reside within a noise ridden non-stationary environment. When 'lifting the lid off' of series analysis to peek with quick discernment, distinguishing between real-time relevant signals differing from intertwining undesirable randomness in a crowded information space, requires special kinds of intricate extraction. Due to the nature of fractal chaos, any novel spectral method is better than the scanty few we have now. Firstly, let's comprehend agilities of interpreting a spectrum's structure...
SPECTRAL ANALYSIS PURPOSE AND INTENTION:
Frequency Analysis - Spectral analysis serves a crucial purpose in unraveling the frequency composition of a signal. Its primary intention is to explore the intricacies of a dataset by identifying dominant frequencies and unveiling inherent cyclical patterns. This foundational understanding forms the basis for improving analyses.
Power Spectrum Visualization - The visualization of a signal's power spectrum is a key objective in spectral analysis. By portraying how power is distributed across different frequencies, the goal is to provide a visual representation of the signal's energy landscape. This insight aids with grasping the significance of various frequency components obtained from a larger whole.
Signal Characteristics - Understanding the traits of a signal is another vital goal. Spectral analysis seeks to characterize the nature of the signal, unveiling its periodicity, trends, or irregularities. This knowledge is instrumental in deciphering the behavior of the signal over time, fostering a deeper comprehension.
Algorithmic Adaptation - Spectral analyzer estimation can play a pivotal role in algorithmic development. By assisting with the creation of algorithms sensitive to specific frequency ranges, one possible advantage is to enable real-time adaptability. This adaptability approach may allow algorithms to respond dynamically to variations in different spectral components, potentially enhancing their efficacy.
Market Analysis - In the realm of trading systems and financial markets, spectral analysis methods can serve as applicable functions when studying market dynamics. By 'uncovering' trends, cycles, and anomalies within financial instruments, this analytical proficiency can aid traders and algorithm developers with making better informed decisions based on the spectral attributes of market data.
Noise/Interference Detection - Another purpose of spectral analysis is to identify and scrutinize undesirable elements within a signal, such as noise or interference. One benefit would be to facilitate the development of strategies to mitigate or eliminate these unwanted components, ultimately refining the quality of a given signal with filtration.
INTRODUCTION:
Allow me to introduce Pandora! What you see in the demonstration above, I've named it "Pandora Periodogram", which is also referred to as 'Ultra Spectrum Analyzer' (USA) for technical minds. Firstly, this is NOT technically speaking an indicator like most others. I would describe it as an avant-garde cycle period detector obtaining accurate spectral estimates on market data with Pine Script v5.0. USA is a spectral analysis cryptid that I can only describe as being an alien saber in nature. It is my rendering of spectral wrath unleashed. With time and history to come, my HOPE is this instrument will reveal Excalibur like aspects capable of slicing up a spectrum craftily, traits long thought to be a mythical enigma.
It is not modified forms of either Autocorrelation Periodogram (ACP) or MESA. Pandora's Periodogram embodies an entirely distinct design, adorned with glamourous color, by incorporating several of my most profound, highly refined technological innovations that I have poetically composed into being. What I have forged in Pine, has essentially manifested as a zero lag spectrum analyzer. Pandora easily peeks inside a single signal source more effectively to inspect for hidden spectres, revealing invisible apparitions inside data with improved clarity...
My 'Ultra Spectrum Analyzer' bears an eerie likeness to Autocorrelation Periodogram, but it possesses no autocorrelation and the other small hindrances of ACP that I formerly encountered. While ACP does have a few shortcomings, a few bars of lag, and high frequency bias, it is still phenomenal code. ACP is one answer to spectral enigmas, but not the only one. Developers can utilize this detector by creating scripts that employ a "Dominant Cycle Source" input to adaptively govern algorithms. If you are capable of building suitable algorithms for direct tethering to Autocorrelation Periodogram, then this is your next step in evolutionary application to tether to when you are ready. ACP is a good place to start building upon as an exploratory vessel, before you might ponder using USA. Once you do obtain dynamic ACP sweetness with only a few pesky bars of dominant cycle induced lag, USA may be your tool chest choice without the burden of subtle ACP lag.
USA is possibly the end of my quest for spectral bliss, for the time being. However, I still suspect there is more room for upgrades to Pandora in the future. I must mention, as an overture, this won't be the last of Pandora tech that you will witness, as my literal "out of the box thinking" will unleash many additional creations upon this Earth. The "Power of Pine" merely serves as the beginning foundational phase... Some of my futuristic dreams and daydreams of TradingView are droplets in a wavy ocean of economic providence and potential.
What I am crafting in poetic form is born out of raw curiosity. Future creations are probably best kept private for now, but I will present my future tech with beauty and elegance as it should rightfully be. There's one catch, I have absolutely no idea what this and my future marvels may do to the future of digital signal processing (DSP) and markets. I do fear any insane AI or MALEficent entity ever seeing this code. My innermost hopes and ambitions are always focused on achieving the best result obtainable. What the future can hold, may be absolutely exquisite to gaze upon, maybe even monstrous, or possibly a combination of both.
Notice: Unfortunately, I will not provide any integration support into member's projects at all. My own projects demand too much of my day to day time. I hope you understand. Meanwhile, I'll be applying this on future indication until Mr. Mortality sneaks up behind me.
FEATURES AND CHARACTERISTICS:
I have included as much ultra adjustability as I can humanly muster. Those features being the following and more...
Color Preferences - Four vivid color schemes are available in the original release. The "Ultra Violet" color scheme, in particular, contributes to the indicator's technical title, as it seems to me to reveal the greatest detail of my various spectral color schemes. Color inversion of the four color schemes is also possible, yielding eight schemes in total with predator style visuals. Heatmap transparency control is also provided.
Lag Control - Pandora achieves zero lag spectral approximations, with the added capability to control lag using an input for selectable delay. Note, however, that testing less than zero lag has not been assessed thoroughly due to potential unforeseen instability concerns. Adjustments are provided in either direction for further testing.
Spectral Bias Mitigation - Options for mitigating high OR low-frequency spectral biases are present. One interesting tweak made during development was a subtle form of spectral manipulation, involving a partial reduction of frequency amplitudes influencing either the highest or lowest periodicities. This slightly reduces the impact on the upper and lower portions of the spectrogram and the dominant cycle measurement. What initially surfaced as an unexpected discovery, may now be considered worthy of experimental utility.
Adjustable Periodogram Window Size - The periodogram is adjustable for various window sizes of periodic operation. Exploration up to a periodicity of 59 is obtainable for curiosity's sake. This flexibility challenges the notion that curiosity isn't always a negative trait, contrasting with Hesiod's ancient perspective.
Dominant Cycle Filtration - Filtration of the dominant cycle is achieved with a novel smoother having reduced lag, easily surpassing SuperSmoother's performance. However, defeating lag completely on that one plot() function was elusive.
Tooltips for Control Intention - The settings commonly include handy and informative tooltips that provide information eluding to the intention behind the various controls provided.
Initialization Advantages - Initialization of USA accomplishes what Autocorrelation Periodogram (ACP) didn't. Spectral analysis begins on the earliest visible bars, starting at period 2. Users need to ensure their algorithm's integrity from period 2 upwards to beyond 40ish, establishing a viable operational range for dynamically governing those algorithms. It's notable that stochastics and correlations have a minimum operable critical period of 2, distinct from most low-pass filters that can actually achieve a period of 1 (which is the raw signal itself). Proper initialization of complex IIR filters is particularly effective, especially with smaller initialization periods.
Remaining options and features are comparable to my Enhanced Autocorrelation Periodogram in terms of comprehension, and other upgrades may be added in the future upon discovery.
PERIODOGRAM INTERPRETATION:
The periodogram heatmap renders a power spectrum of a signal visually by color, where the y-axis represents periodicity (frequencies/wavelengths) and the x-axis is delineating time. The y-axis is divided into periods, with each elevation portraying demarcation of periodicity. In this periodogram, the y-axis ranges from 4 at the very bottom to 49 (or greater) at the top, with intermediary values in between, all conveying power of the corresponding frequency component by color. The higher the position ascends on the y-axis, the longer the cycle period or lower the frequency. The x-axis of the periodogram signifies time and is partitioned into equal chart intervals, where each vertical column corresponds to the time interval when the signal was measured. Most recent values/colors are on the right side of the periodogram.
Intensity of the colors on the periodogram signify the power level of the corresponding frequency or cycle period. For example, the "Fiery Embers" color scheme is distinctly like heat intensity from any casual flame witnessed in a small fire from a lighter, match, or campfire. The most intense power exhibited would be represented by the brightest of yellow, while the lowest power would be indicated by the darkest shade of red or just black. By analyzing the pattern of colors across different periods, one may gain insights into the dominant frequency components of the signal and visually identify recurring cycles/patterns of periodicity.
