Weekly Covered Calls StrategyWhat Does This Indicator Do?
This indicator is a tool to help you pick strike prices for your weekly covered call options strategy. It does two things:
Plots two suggested strike prices on your chart:
Aggressive Strike (red label): A strike price closer to the current price, offering higher premiums but with a higher chance of assignment.
Moderate Strike (blue label): A strike price further from the current price, offering lower premiums but with a lower chance of assignment.
Uses technical analysis (volatility) to calculate these strike prices dynamically. It adjusts them based on the market's volatility and your chosen risk settings.
How It Works:
The indicator uses the following inputs to determine the strike prices:
ATR (Average True Range):
This measures the stock's volatility (how much the stock moves up or down over a given period).
A higher ATR = more volatile stock = wider range for strike prices.
Delta Adjustments:
The default settings use Delta values of 0.12 (Aggressive) and 0.18 (Moderate).
Delta is a concept in options trading that estimates the likelihood of the option being "in the money" (ITM) by expiration.
A 0.12 Delta = 12% chance of assignment (Aggressive)
A 0.18 Delta = 18% chance of assignment (Moderate)
Volatility Factor:
This multiplies the ATR by a factor (default is 1.5) to estimate the expected price move and adjust strike prices accordingly.
How to Use the Indicator:
Step 1: Understand the Labels
Red Label (Aggressive Strike):
Closer to the current stock price.
You’ll collect higher premiums because the strike price is riskier (closer to being ITM).
Best for traders comfortable with a higher risk of assignment.
Blue Label (Moderate Strike):
Further from the current stock price.
You’ll collect lower premiums because the strike price is safer (further from being ITM).
Best for traders looking to avoid assignment and collect safer weekly income.
Step 2: Match It to the Options Chain
Open your options chain (like the one you see in Fidelity, TOS, or TradingView).
Look for the strike prices closest to the red (aggressive) and blue (moderate) labels plotted by the indicator.
Compare the premiums (the amount you collect for selling the call) and decide:
If you want higher income: Go with the Aggressive Strike.
If you want safety: Go with the Moderate Strike.
Step 3: Manage Your Risk and Income
Avoid Assignment:
If you do not want your shares to be called away, choose strike prices further from the current price (e.g., moderate strike).
Maximize Premiums:
If you’re okay with a chance of your shares being called away, choose the closer aggressive strike for higher premium income.
Weekly Income Goal:
Use this strategy consistently each week to collect premium income while holding your shares.
Step 4: Adjust for Your Risk Tolerance
You can adjust the Delta values (0.12 for Aggressive and 0.18 for Moderate) to suit your risk tolerance:
Lower Delta (e.g., 0.08–0.10): Safer, fewer chances of assignment, lower premiums.
Higher Delta (e.g., 0.20–0.25): Riskier, higher chances of assignment, higher premiums.
Technical Analysis Summary (What the Indicator Uses):
The indicator uses ATR (Average True Range) to measure volatility and estimate how far the price might move.
It then multiplies ATR by a Volatility Factor to calculate the strike prices.
Using the Delta Adjustment settings, it adjusts these strike prices to give you a balance between risk and reward.
Putting It All Together:
Look at the Chart: The indicator will show two lines and labels for strike prices.
Check the Options Chain: Find the closest strike prices and compare premiums.
Decide Your Strategy:
Want higher premium income? Choose the Aggressive Strike (red label).
Want lower risk of assignment? Choose the Moderate Strike (blue label).
Collect Weekly Income: Sell the call option and repeat this process weekly to generate consistent income.
Happy trading, and may your premiums roll in while your shares stay safe! 🎯📊

20/50 SMA Cross 200 SMAThis Pine Script code is designed to identify and visualize crossovers of two shorter-term Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), a 20-period SMA and a 50-period SMA, with a longer-term 200-period SMA on a price chart. It also includes alerts for these crossover events. Here's a breakdown:
**Purpose:**
The core idea behind this script is to detect potential trend changes. Crossovers of shorter-term moving averages over a longer-term moving average are often interpreted as bullish signals, while crossovers below are considered bearish.
**Key Components:**
1. **Moving Average Calculation:**
* `sma20 = ta.sma(close, 20)`: Calculates the 20-period SMA of the closing price.
* `sma50 = ta.sma(close, 50)`: Calculates the 50-period SMA of the closing price.
* `sma200 = ta.sma(close, 200)`: Calculates the 200-period SMA of the closing price.
2. **Crossover Detection:**
* `crossUp20 = ta.crossover(sma20, sma200)`: Returns `true` when the 20-period SMA crosses above the 200-period SMA.
* `crossDown20 = ta.crossunder(sma20, sma200)`: Returns `true` when the 20-period SMA crosses below the 200-period SMA.
* Similar logic applies for `crossUp50` and `crossDown50` with the 50-period SMA.
3. **Recent Crossover Tracking (Crucial Improvement):**
* `lookback = 7`: Defines a lookback period of 7 bars.
* `var bool hasCrossedUp20 = false`, etc.: Declares `var` (persistent) boolean variables to track if a crossover has occurred *within* the last 7 bars. This is the most important correction from previous versions.
* The logic using `ta.barssince()` is the key:
* If a crossover happens (`crossUp20` is true), the corresponding `hasCrossedUp20` is set to `true`.
* If no crossover happens on the current bar, it checks if a crossover happened within the last 7 bars using `ta.barssince(crossUp20) <= lookback`. If so, it keeps `hasCrossedUp20` as `true`. After 7 bars, it becomes `false`.
4. **Plotting Crossovers:**
* `plotshape(...)`: Plots circles on the chart to visually mark the crossovers.
* Green circles below the bars for bullish crossovers (20 and 50).
* Red circles above the bars for bearish crossovers (20 and 50).
* Different shades of green/red (green/lime, red/maroon) distinguish between 20 and 50 SMA crossovers.
5. **Plotting Moving Averages (Optional but Helpful):**
* `plot(sma20, color=color.blue, linewidth=1)`: Plots the 20-period SMA in blue.
* Similar logic for the 50-period SMA (orange) and 200-period SMA (gray).
6. **Alerts:**
* `alertcondition(...)`: Triggers alerts when crossovers occur. This is essential for real-time trading signals.
**How it Works (in Simple Terms):**
The script continuously calculates the 20, 50, and 200 SMAs. It then monitors for instances where the 20 or 50 SMA crosses the 200 SMA. When such a crossover happens, a colored circle is plotted on the chart, and an alert is triggered. The key improvement is that it remembers if a crossover occurred in the last 7 bars and continues to display the circle during that period.
**Use Case:**
Traders use this type of indicator to identify potential entry and exit points in the market. A bullish crossover (shorter SMA crossing above the longer SMA) might be a signal to buy, while a bearish crossover might be a signal to sell.
**Key Improvements over Previous Versions:**
* **Correct Lookback Implementation:** The use of `ta.barssince()` and `var` variables is the correct and efficient way to check for crossovers within a lookback period. This fixes the major flaw in earlier versions.
* **Clear Visualizations:** The use of `plotshape` with distinct colors makes it easy to distinguish between 20 and 50 SMA crossovers.
* **Alerts:** The inclusion of alerts makes the script much more practical for real-time trading.
This improved version provides a robust and useful tool for identifying and tracking SMA crossovers.
Weighted Fourier Transform: Spectral Gating & Main Frequency🙏🏻 This drop has 2 purposes:
1) to inform every1 who'd ever see it that Weighted Fourier Tranform does exist, while being available nowhere online, not even in papers, yet there's nothing incredibly complicated about it, and it can/should be used in certain cases;
2) to show TradingView users how they can use it now in dem endevours, to show em what spectral filtering is, and what can they do with all of it in diy mode.
... so we gonna have 2 sections in the description
Section 1: Weighted Fourier Transform
It's quite easy to include weights in Fourier analysis: you just premultiply each datapoint by its corresponding weight -> feed to direct Fourier Transform, and then divide by weights after inverse Fourier transform. Alternatevely, in direct transform you just multiply contributions of each data point to the real and imaginary parts of the Fourier transform by corresponding weights (in accumulation phase), and in inverse transform you divide by weights instead during the accumulation phase. Everything else stays the same just like in non-weighted version.
If you're from the first target group let's say, you prolly know a thing or deux about how to code & about Fourier Transform, so you can just check lines of code to see the implementation of Weighted Discrete version of Fourier Transform, and port it to to any technology you desire. Pine Script is a developing technology that is incredibly comfortable in use for quant-related tasks and anything involving time series in general. While also using Python for research and C++ for development, every time I can do what I want in Pine Script, I reach for it and never touch matlab, python, R, or anything else.
Weighted version allows you to explicetly include order/time information into the operation, which is essential with every time series, although not widely used in mainstream just as many other obvious and right things. If you think deeply, you'll understand that you can apply a usual non-weighted Fourier to any 2d+ data you can (even if none of these dimensions represent time), because this is a geometric tool in essence. By applying linearly decaying weights inside Fourier transform, you're explicetly saying, "one of these dimensions is Time, and weights represent the order". And obviously you can combine multiple weightings, eg time and another characteristic of each datum, allows you to include another non-spatial dimension in your model.
By doing that, on properly processed (not only stationary but Also centered around zero data), you can get some interesting results that you won't be able to recreate without weights:
^^ A sine wave, centered around zero, period of 16. Gray line made by: DWFT (direct weighted Fourier transform) -> spectral gating -> IWFT (inverse weighted Fourier transform) -> plotting the last value of gated reconstructed data, all applied to expanding window. Look how precisely it follows the original data (the sine wave) with no lag at all. This can't be done by using non-weighted version of Fourier transform.
^^ spectral filtering applied to the whole dataset, calculated on the latest data update
And you should never forget about Fast Fourier Transform, tho it needs recursion...
Section 2: About use cases for quant trading, about this particular implementaion in Pine Script 6 (currently the latest version as of Friday 13, December 2k24).
Given the current state of things, we have certain limits on matrix size on TradingView (and we need big dope matrixes to calculate polynomial regression -> detrend & center our data before Fourier), and recursion is not yet available in Pine Script, so the script works on short datasets only, and requires some time.
A note on detrending. For quality results, Fourier Transform should be applied to not only stationary but also centered around zero data. The rightest way to do detrending of time series
is to fit Cumulative Weighted Moving Polynomial Regression (known as WLSMA in some narrow circles xD) and calculate the deltas between datapoint at time t and this wonderful fit at time t. That's exactly what you see on the main chart of script description: notice the distances between chart and WLSMA, now look lower and see how it matches the distances between zero and purple line in WFT study. Using residuals of one regression fit of the whole dataset makes less sense in time series context, we break some 'time' and order rules in a way, tho not many understand/cares abouit it in mainstream quant industry.
Two ways of using the script:
Spectral Gating aka Spectral filtering. Frequency domain filtering is quite responsive and for a greater computational cost does not introduce a lag the way it works with time-domain filtering. Works this way: direct Fourier transform your data to get frequency & phase info -> compute power spectrum out of it -> zero out all dem freqs that ain't hit your threshold -> inverse Fourier tranform what's left -> repeat at each datapoint plotting the very first value of reconstructed array*. With this you can watch for zero crossings to make appropriate trading decisions.
^^ plot Freq pass to use the script this way, use Level setting to control the intensity of gating. These 3 only available values: -1, 0 and 1, are the general & natural ones.
* if you turn on labels in script's style settings, you see the gray dots perfectly fitting your data. They get recalculated (for the whole dataset) at each update. You call it repainting, this is for analytical & aesthetic purposes. Included for demonstration only.
Finding main/dominant frequency & period. You can use it to set up Length for your other studies, and for analytical purposes simply to understand the periodicity of your data.
^^ plot main frequency/main period to use the script this way. On the screenshot, you can see the script applied to sine wave of period 16, notice how many datapoints it took the algo to figure out the signal's period quite good in expanding window mode
Now what's the next step? You can try applying signal windowing techniques to make it all less data-driven but your ego-driven, make a weighted periodogram or autocorrelogram (check Wiener-Khinchin Theorem ), and maybe whole shiny spectrogram?
... you decide, choice is yours,
The butterfly reflect the doors ...

Drawdown from All-Time High (Line)This Pine Script is a **Drawdown Indicator from All-Time High** for TradingView. It calculates and plots the percentage drawdown from the highest price the asset has ever reached (the all-time high). Here's a breakdown of what this script does:
### Description:
- **Drawdown Calculation**:
- The drawdown is calculated as the difference between the current price (`close`) and the all-time high, divided by the all-time high, and multiplied by 100 to express it as a percentage.
- If the current price is higher than the previous all-time high, the all-time high is updated to the current price.
- **All-Time High Tracking**:
- The script tracks the highest price (`allTimeHigh`) that the asset has ever reached. Each time a new high is reached, the `allTimeHigh` value is updated.
- **Line Plot**:
- The drawdown percentage is then plotted as a line on the chart, with a color of **blue** for easy visualization.
- The line shows how much the price has dropped relative to its all-time high.
- **Zero Line**:
- A horizontal line is added at the **0%** level to act as a reference point, which is helpful to identify when the asset has fully recovered to its all-time high.
### Key Features:
- **Track Drawdown**: The indicator helps visualize how far the current price has fallen from its highest point, which is useful for understanding the depth of losses (drawdowns) during a period.
- **Update All-Time High**: The indicator automatically updates the all-time high whenever a new high is detected.
- **Visual Reference**: The 0% horizontal line provides a clear indication of when the asset is at its all-time high, and the drawdown is at 0%.
### How it Works:
- If the current price surpasses the all-time high, the script will reset the all-time high to the new price.
- The drawdown percentage is calculated from the current price relative to this all-time high, and it is displayed as a line on the chart.
### Visuals:
- **Drawdown Line**: Plots the percentage of the drawdown, which is the drop from the all-time high.
- **Zero Line**: A dotted horizontal line at 0% marks the level of the all-time high.
This indicator is valuable for understanding the extent of price corrections and potential recoveries relative to the historical peak of the asset. It is especially useful for traders and investors who want to assess the risk of drawdowns in relation to the highest price achieved by the asset.
Log Regression OscillatorThe Log Regression Oscillator transforms the logarithmic regression curves into an easy-to-interpret oscillator that displays potential cycle tops/bottoms.
🔶 USAGE
Calculating the logarithmic regression of long-term swings can help show future tops/bottoms. The relationship between previous swing points is calculated and projected further. The calculated levels are directly associated with swing points, which means every swing point will change the calculation. Importantly, all levels will be updated through all bars when a new swing is detected.
The "Log Regression Oscillator" transforms the calculated levels, where the top level is regarded as 100 and the bottom level as 0. The price values are displayed in between and calculated as a ratio between the top and bottom, resulting in a clear view of where the price is situated.
The main picture contains the Logarithmic Regression Alternative on the chart to compare with this published script.
Included are the levels 30 and 70. In the example of Bitcoin, previous cycles showed a similar pattern: the bullish parabolic was halfway when the oscillator passed the 30-level, and the top was very near when passing the 70-level.
🔹 Proactive
A "Proactive" option is included, which ensures immediate calculations of tentative unconfirmed swings.
Instead of waiting 300 bars for confirmation, the "Proactive" mode will display a gray-white dot (not confirmed swing) and add the unconfirmed Swing value to the calculation.
The above example shows that the "Calculated Values" of the potential future top and bottom are adjusted, including the provisional swing.
When the swing is confirmed, the calculations are again adjusted, showing a red dot (confirmed top swing) or a green dot (confirmed bottom swing).
🔹 Dashboard
When less than two swings are available (top/bottom), this will be shown in the dashboard.
The user can lower the "Threshold" value or switch to a lower timeframe.
🔹 Notes
Logarithmic regression is typically used to model situations where growth or decay accelerates rapidly at first and then slows over time, meaning some symbols/tickers will fit better than others.
Since the logarithmic regression depends on swing values, each new value will change the calculation. A well-fitted model could not fit anymore in the future.
Users have to check the validity of swings; for example, if the direction of swings is downwards, then the dataset is not fitted for logarithmic regression.
In the example above, the "Threshold" is lowered. However, the calculated levels are unreliable due to the swings, which do not fit the model well.
Here, the combination of downward bottom swings and price accelerates slower at first and faster recently, resulting in a non-fit for the logarithmic regression model.
Note the price value (white line) is bound to a limit of 150 (upwards) and -150 (down)
In short, logarithmic regression is best used when there are enough tops/bottoms, and all tops are around 100, and all bottoms around 0.
Also, note that this indicator has been developed for a daily (or higher) timeframe chart.
🔶 DETAILS
In mathematics, the dot product or scalar product is an algebraic operation that takes two equal-length sequences of numbers (arrays) and returns a single number, the sum of the products of the corresponding entries of the two sequences of numbers.
The usual way is to loop through both arrays and sum the products.
In this case, the two arrays are transformed into a matrix, wherein in one matrix, a single column is filled with the first array values, and in the second matrix, a single row is filled with the second array values.
After this, the function matrix.mult() returns a new matrix resulting from the product between the matrices m1 and m2.
Then, the matrix.eigenvalues() function transforms this matrix into an array, where the array.sum() function finally returns the sum of the array's elements, which is the dot product.
dot(x, y)=>
if x.size() > 1 and y.size() > 1
m1 = matrix.new()
m2 = matrix.new()
m1.add_col(m1.columns(), y)
m2.add_row(m2.rows (), x)
m1.mult (m2)
.eigenvalues()
.sum()
🔶 SETTINGS
Threshold: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
Proactive: Tentative Swings are included with this setting enabled.
Style: Color Settings
Dashboard: Toggle, "Location" and "Text Size"
ATT + Key Levels with SessionsKey Features:
ATT Turning Point Numbers:
This input allows the user to define specific numbers (e.g., "3,11,17,29,41,47,53,59") that mark turning points in price action, which are checked using the bar_index modulo 60. If the current bar index matches one of these turning points, it triggers potential buy or sell signals.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI is calculated based on a user-defined period (rsi_period), typically 14, and used to indicate overbought or oversold conditions. The script defines overbought (70) and oversold (30) levels, which are used to filter buy or sell signals.
Session Times:
The script includes predefined session times for major trading markets:
New York: From 9:30 AM EST to 4:00 PM EST.
London: From 8:00 AM GMT to 4:30 PM GMT.
Asia: From 12:00 AM GMT to 9:00 AM GMT.
These session times are used to restrict the buy and sell signals to specific market sessions.
Key Levels:
The script calculates and plots key market levels for the current day and week:
Daily High and Low: The highest and lowest prices of the current day.
Weekly High and Low: The highest and lowest prices of the current week.
These levels are plotted with different colors for visual reference.
Signal Logic:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the current bar is a turning point (according to the ATT model), the RSI is below the oversold threshold, and the current time is within the active session times (New York, London, or Asia).
Sell Signal: Triggered when the current bar is a turning point, the RSI is above the overbought threshold, and the current time is within the active session times.
Signal Limitations:
A user-defined limit (max_signals_per_session) controls the maximum number of signals that can be plotted within each session. This prevents excessive signal generation.
Plotting and Background Highlights:
Buy and Sell Signals: The script plots shapes (labels) above or below the bars to indicate buy or sell signals when the conditions are met.
Background Highlight: The background color is highlighted in yellow when the current bar matches one of the defined ATT turning points.
In Summary:
The indicator combines multiple technical factors to generate trading signals:
Turning points in price action (based on custom ATT numbers),
RSI levels (overbought/oversold),
Market session times (New York, London, Asia),
Key price levels (daily and weekly highs and lows).
This combination helps traders identify potential buying and selling opportunities while considering broader market dynamics and limiting the number of signals during each session.

Crypto$ure EMA with 4H Trend TableThe Crypto AMEX:URE EMA indicator provides a clear, multi-timeframe confirmation setup to help you align your shorter-term trades with the broader market trend.
Key Features:
4-Hour EMA Trend Insight:
A table, displayed at the top-right corner of your chart, shows the current 4-hour EMA value and whether the 4-hour trend is Bullish, Bearish, or Neutral. This gives you a reliable, higher-timeframe perspective, making it easier to understand the general market direction.
Lower Timeframe Signals (e.g., 25m or 15m):
On your chosen chart timeframe, the indicator plots two EMAs (Fast and Slow).
A Buy Signal (an up arrow) appears when the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA, indicating potential upward momentum.
A Sell Signal (a down arrow) appears when the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA, indicating potential downward momentum.
Manual Confirmation for Better Accuracy:
While the Buy/Sell signals come directly from the shorter timeframe, you can use the 4-hour trend information from the table to confirm or filter these signals. For example, if the 4-hour trend is Bullish, the Buy signals on the shorter timeframe may carry more weight. If it’s Bearish, then the Sell signals might be more reliable.
How to Use:
Add the Crypto AMEX:URE EMA indicator to your chart.
Check the top-right table to see the current 4-hour EMA trend.
Watch for Buy (up arrow) or Sell (down arrow) signals on your current timeframe.
For added confidence, consider taking Buy signals only when the 4-hour trend is Bullish and Sell signals when the 4-hour trend is Bearish.
Note:
This indicator does not generate trading orders. Instead, it provides actionable insights to help guide your discretionary decision-making. Always consider additional market context, risk management practices, and personal trading rules before acting on any signal.

SMA Proximity Signal with Trend TableSummary of the Script:
This Pine Script is designed to provide a variety of technical analysis signals based on Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) and market trends across different timeframes. The script combines multiple indicators, such as the SMA crossover, proximity conditions, and trend analysis, along with visual markers and support/resistance lines. Below is a detailed breakdown of the key features:
The script detects crossovers between SMA1 and SMA2 and SMA1 and SMA3, marking them with green circles exactly at the crossover price level (not on the candles).
The crossover events are identified using ta.crossover and ta.crossunder functions.
Additional circles are drawn when other SMAs are in proximity (narrow stage)
Elephant Candle Pattern:
The script identifies "Elephant Candles" based on a large candle body relative to the overall size of the candle, using the condition where the candle body is at least 80% of the total candle size and at least 1.5 times the average candle size.
These candles are marked with an elephant emoji 🐘 at the top of the candle.
Trend Analysis Across Multiple Timeframes:
The script calculates the trend for different timeframes using the SMA20 of each timeframe:
5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, and 1D
It compares the current SMA20 to its previous value to determine whether the trend is Up, Down, or Flat.
Supertrend with Correct Y-axis Scaling OLEG_SLSThe functionality of the script:
1. Supertrend Calculation:
-The trend (Supertrend line) is updated dynamically:
-If the price is above the previous trend, the line follows the upper limit.
-If the price is lower, the line follows the lower boundary.
2. Calculation of the Supertrend for the higher timeframe:
-The function is used to calculate the Supertrend for the hourly, regardless of the current timeframe on the chart.
3. Buy and Sell Signals:
-Buy signal: When the price crosses the Supertrend line up and is above the Supertrend line.
-A sales signal: When the price crosses the Supertrend line down and is below the Supertrend line.
4. Display on the chart
-The Supertrend line is displayed:
-Green if the price is above the Supertrend line.
-Red if the price is below the Supertrend line.
-The Supertrend line for the hourly timeframe is displayed in blue.
5. Alerts
Two types of alerts are created:
-Buy Alert: When there is a buy signal.
-Sell Alert: When there is a sell signal.
Features and recommendations:
-Supertrend works best in trending markets. In a sideways movement, it can give false signals.
-Check the signals on multiple timeframes for confirmation.
-Add additional indicators (for example, RSI or MACD) to filter the signals.
-Test the strategy on historical data before using it in real trading.

GMO (Gyroscopic Momentum Oscillator) GMO
Overview
This indicator fuses multiple advanced concepts to give traders a comprehensive view of market momentum, volatility, and potential turning points. It leverages the Gyroscopic Momentum Oscillator (GMO) foundation and layers on IQR-based bands, dynamic ATR-adjusted OB/OS levels, torque filtering, and divergence detection. The outcome is a versatile tool that can assist in identifying both short-term squeezes and long-term reversal zones while detecting subtle shifts in momentum acceleration.
Key Components:
Gyroscopic Momentum Oscillator (GMO) – A physics-inspired metric capturing trend stability and momentum by treating price dynamics as “angle,” “angular velocity,” and “inertia.”
IQR Bands – Highlight statistically typical oscillation ranges, providing insight into short-term squeezes and potential near-term trend shifts.
ATR-Adjusted OB/OS Levels – Dynamic thresholds for overbought/oversold conditions, adapting to volatility, aiding in identifying long-term potential reversal zones.
Torque Filtering & Scaling – Smooths and thresholds torque (the rate of change of momentum) and visually scales it for clarity, indicating sudden force changes that may precede volatility adjustments.
Divergence Detection – Highlights potential reversal cues by comparing oscillator swings against price swings, revealing regular and hidden bullish/bearish divergences.
Conceptual Insights
IQR Bands (Short-Term Squeeze & Trend Direction):
Short-Term Momentum and Squeeze: The IQR (Interquartile Range) bands show where the oscillator tends to “live” statistically. When the GMO line hovers within compressed IQR bands, it can signal a momentum squeeze phase. Exiting these tight ranges often correlates with short-term breakout opportunities.
Trend Reversals: If the oscillator pushes beyond these IQR ranges, it may indicate an emerging short-term trend change. Traders can watch for GMO escaping the IQR “comfort zone” to anticipate a new directional move.
Dynamic OB/OS Levels (Long-Term Reversal Zones):
ATR-Based Adaptive Thresholds: Instead of static overbought/oversold lines, this tool uses ATR to adjust OB/OS boundaries. In calm markets, these lines remain closer to ±90. As volatility rises, they approach ±100, reflecting greater permissible swings.
Long-Term Trend Reversal Potential: If GMO hits these dynamically adjusted OB/OS extremes, it suggests conditions ripe for possible long-term trend reversals. Traders seeking major inflection points may find these adaptive levels more reliable than fixed thresholds.
Torque (Sudden Force & Directional Shifts):
Momentum Acceleration Insight: Torque represents the second derivative of momentum, highlighting how quickly momentum is changing. High positive torque suggests a rapidly strengthening bullish force, while high negative torque warns of sudden bearish pressure.
Early Warning & Stability/Volatility Adjustments: By monitoring torque spikes, traders can anticipate momentum shifts before price fully confirms them. This can signal imminent changes in stability or increased volatility phases.
Indicator Parameters and Usage
GMO-Related Inputs:
lenPivot (Default 100): Length for calculating the pivot line (slow market axis).
lenSmoothAngle (Default 200): Smooths the angle measure, reducing noise.
lenATR (Default 14): ATR period for scaling factor, linking price changes to volatility.
useVolatility (Default true): If true, volatility (ATR) influences inertia, adjusting momentum calculations.
useVolume (Default false): If true, volume affects inertia, adding a liquidity dimension to momentum.
lenVolSmoothing (Default 50): Smooths volume calculations if useVolume is enabled.
lenMomentumSmooth (Default 20): EMA smoothing of GMO for a cleaner oscillator line.
normalizeRange (Default true): Normalizes GMO to a fixed range for consistent interpretation.
lenNorm (Default 100): Length for normalization window, ensuring GMO’s scale adapts to recent extremes.
IQR Bands Settings:
iqrLength (Default 14): Period to compute the oscillator’s statistical IQR.
iqrMult (Default 1.5): Multiplier to define the upper and lower IQR-based bands.
ATR-Adjusted OB/OS Settings:
baseOBLevel (Fixed at 90) and baseOSLevel (Fixed at 90): Base lines for OB/OS.
atrPeriodForOBOS (Default 50): ATR length for adjusting OB/OS thresholds dynamically.
atrScaling (Default 0.2): Controls how strongly volatility affects OB/OS lines.
Torque Filtering & Visualization:
torqueSmoothLength (Default 10): EMA length to smooth raw torque values.
atrPeriodForTorque (Default 14): ATR period to determine torque threshold.
atrTorqueScaling (Default 0.5): Scales ATR for determining torque’s “significant” threshold.
torqueScaleFactor (Default 10.0): Multiplies the torque values for better visual prominence on the chart.
Divergence Inputs:
showDivergences (Default true): Toggles divergence signals.
lbR, lbL (Defaults 5): Pivot lookback periods to identify swing highs and lows.
rangeUpper, rangeLower: Bar constraints to validate potential divergences.
plotBull, plotHiddenBull, plotBear, plotHiddenBear: Toggles for each divergence type.
Visual Elements on the Chart
GMO Line (Blue) & Zero Line (Gray):
GMO line oscillates around zero. Positive territory hints bullish momentum, negative suggests bearish.
IQR Bands (Teal Lines & Yellow Fill):
Upper/lower bands form a statistical “normal range” for GMO. The median line (purple) provides a central reference. Contraction near these bands indicates a short-term squeeze, expansions beyond them can signal emerging short-term trend changes.
Dynamic OB/OS (Red & Green Lines):
Red line near +90 to +100: Overbought zone (dynamic).
Green line near -90 to -100: Oversold zone (dynamic).
Movement into these zones may mark significant, longer-term reversal potential.
Torque Histogram (Colored Bars):
Plotted below GMO. Green bars = torque above positive threshold (bullish acceleration).
Red bars = torque below negative threshold (bearish acceleration).
Gray bars = neutral range.
This provides early warnings of momentum shifts before price responds fully.
Precession (Orange Line):
Scaled for visibility, adds context to long-term angular shifts in the oscillator.
Divergence Signals (Shapes):
Circles and offset lines highlight regular or hidden bullish/bearish divergences, offering potential reversal signals.
Practical Interpretation & Strategy
Short-Term Opportunities (IQR Focus):
If GMO compresses within IQR bands, the market might be “winding up.” A break above/below these bands can signal a short-term trade opportunity.
Long-Term Reversal Zones (Dynamic OB/OS):
When GMO approaches these dynamically adjusted extremes, conditions may be ripe for a major trend shift. This is particularly useful for swing or position traders looking for significant turnarounds.
Monitoring Torque for Acceleration Cues:
Torque spikes can precede price action, serving as an early catalyst signal. If torque turns strongly positive, anticipate bullish acceleration; strongly negative torque may warn of upcoming bearish pressure.
Confirm with Divergences:
Divergences between price and GMO reinforce potential reversal or continuation signals identified by IQR, OB/OS, or torque. Use them to increase confidence in setups.
Tips and Best Practices
Combine with Price & Volume Action:
While the indicator is powerful, always confirm signals with actual price structure, volume patterns, or other trend-following tools.
Adjust Lengths & Periods as Needed:
Shorter lengths = more responsiveness but more noise. Longer lengths = smoother signals but greater lag. Tune parameters to match your trading style and timeframe.
Use ATR and Volume Settings Wisely:
If markets are highly volatile, consider useVolatility to refine momentum readings. If liquidity is key, enable useVolume.
Scaling Torque:
If torque bars are hard to read, increase torqueScaleFactor further. The scaling doesn’t affect logic—only visibility.
Conclusion
The “GMO + IQR Bands + ATR-Adjusted OB/OS + Torque Filtering (Scaled)” indicator presents a holistic framework for understanding market momentum across multiple timescales and conditions. By interpreting short-term squeezes via IQR bands, long-term reversal zones via adaptive OB/OS, and subtle acceleration changes through torque, traders can gain advanced insights into when to anticipate breakouts, manage risk around potential reversals, and fine-tune timing for entries and exits.
This integrated approach helps navigate complex market dynamics, making it a valuable addition to any technical analysis toolkit.

RShar Liquidity Zone Identifier Description of the Liquidity Zone Identifier Indicator
The **Liquidity Zone Identifier** is a TradingView indicator designed to highlight key liquidity zones on a price chart. Liquidity zones represent areas where the price is likely to encounter significant resistance or support, making them critical for technical analysis and trading decisions.
Key Features:
1. **Dynamic Resistance and Support Levels**:
- The indicator calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined period (`length`) to identify potential resistance and support levels.
- Sensitivity can be adjusted using the `zoneSensitivity` parameter, which defines a percentage buffer around these levels to expand the zones.
2. **Visual Representation**:
- Resistance zones are highlighted in **red**, indicating areas where the price may face selling pressure.
- Support zones are highlighted in **green**, representing areas where the price may find buying interest.
- The zones are displayed as shaded regions using the `fill` function, making them visually distinct and easy to interpret.
3. **Customizable Inputs**:
- **Zone Length** (`length`): Determines the number of candles considered for calculating highs and lows.
- **Zone Sensitivity** (`zoneSensitivity`): Sets the percentage margin around the calculated levels to define the liquidity zones.
- **Zone Colors**: Users can customize the colors for resistance and support zones to suit their preferences.
- **Toggle Fill**: The `showFill` option allows users to enable or disable shaded zone visualization.
4. **Alerts for Trading Opportunities**:
- Alerts are triggered when:
- The price enters the **resistance zone** (current high is greater than or equal to the resistance zone).
- The price enters the **support zone** (current low is less than or equal to the support zone).
- These alerts help traders stay informed of critical market movements without constantly monitoring the chart.
#### How It Works:
1. **Calculation of Zones**:
- The highest high and lowest low over the specified `length` are calculated to define the primary levels.
- A buffer zone is added around these levels based on the `zoneSensitivity` percentage, creating a margin of interaction for price movements.
2. **Plotting the Zones**:
- The top and bottom boundaries of the resistance and support zones are plotted as lines.
- The area between these boundaries is shaded using the `fill` function to enhance visualization.
3. **Alerts for Key Events**:
- Traders are notified when price action interacts with the zones, enabling quick decision-making.
#### Use Case:
The Liquidity Zone Identifier is ideal for:
- Identifying areas of potential price reversal or consolidation.
- Spotting high-probability trading setups near resistance and support zones.
- Complementing other technical indicators in a trading strategy.
By effectively highlighting critical price levels, this indicator provides traders with a powerful tool to navigate the markets with greater precision.
Financial Conditions Composite Z-Score1. Inputs and Data Sources
The script pulls data for the following financial metrics using TradingView's request.security function:
CBOE:VIX (Volatility Index): A measure of market volatility.
MOVE Index: A measure of bond market volatility (or Treasury volatility).
BAMLH0A0HYM2 (High-Yield Spread): The spread between high-yield corporate bonds and Treasury yields.
BAMLC0A0CM (Credit Spread): The spread for investment-grade corporate bonds.
Each of these metrics represents a key aspect of financial conditions:
VIX: Equity market risk.
MOVE: Bond market risk.
High-Yield Spread and Credit Spread: Perception of risk in corporate debt.
2. Z-Score Calculation
A z-score standardizes each metric to show how far it deviates from its average over a specified period (lookback = 160, or 160 days):
Positive z-scores indicate the metric is higher than average.
Negative z-scores indicate the metric is lower than average.
The formula for the z-score:
Z-Score = Metric − Mean
Standard Deviation Z-Score = Standard Deviation Metric−Mean
3. Combined Z-Score
The script combines the four individual z-scores into a single Composite Z-Score, equally weighted across the metrics:
Combined Z-Score = (Z VIX + Z MOVE + Z High-Yield Spread + Z Credit Spread) / 4
This Combined Z-Score provides an overall measure of financial conditions:
Positive combined z-scores indicate tighter or riskier financial conditions.
Negative combined z-scores indicate looser or less risky financial conditions.
4. Visual Elements on the Chart
A. Colorful Lines: Individual Z-Scores
Each of the four metrics is plotted as a separate line:
Red: Z-score of the VIX.
Green: Z-score of the MOVE index.
Orange: Z-score of the high-yield spread.
Purple: Z-score of the credit spread.
These lines show how each metric contributes to the overall financial conditions. For example:
A rising red line means increasing equity market volatility (risk).
A rising green line means increasing bond market volatility (risk).
B. Blue Line: Combined Z-Score
The blue line represents the Combined Z-Score. It aggregates the individual z-scores into a single measure:
A rising blue line suggests financial conditions are tightening (greater risk across markets).
A falling blue line suggests financial conditions are loosening (lower risk across markets).
C. Red and Green Background: Z-Score Regions
Red Background: When the Combined Z-Score is positive (>0), it indicates riskier or tighter financial conditions.
Green Background: When the Combined Z-Score is negative (<0), it indicates less risky or looser financial conditions.
This background coloring helps visually distinguish periods of riskier financial conditions from less risky ones.
5. Purpose of the Visualization
This indicator provides a comprehensive view of financial conditions across multiple asset classes:
Traders can use it to gauge the level of systemic market stress.
Investors can use it to assess when risk is elevated (positive z-scores) or subdued (negative z-scores).
It helps in decision-making for strategies that depend on market volatility or risk appetite.
Summary of What You See:
Colorful Lines (Red, Green, Orange, Purple): Individual z-scores for each metric (VIX, MOVE, high-yield spread, credit spread).
Blue Line: The aggregated Combined Z-Score that summarizes financial conditions.
Red and Green Background:
Red: Tight or risky financial conditions (Combined Z-Score > 0).
Green: Loose or low-risk financial conditions (Combined Z-Score < 0).
This visualization provides a multi-dimensional view of financial conditions at a glance, helping to identify periods of high or low risk in the markets.

Trend Condition [TradersPro]
OVERVIEW
The Trend Condition Indicator measures the strength of the bullish or bearish trend by using a ribbon pattern of exponential moving averages and scoring system. Trend cycles naturally expand and contract as a normal part of the cycle. It is the rhythm of the market. Perpetual expansion and contraction of trend.
As trend cycles develop the indicator shows a compression of the averages. These compression zones are key locations as trends typically expand from there. The expansion of trend can be up or down.
As the trend advances the ribbon effect of the indicator can be seen as each average expands with the price action. Once they have “fanned” the probability of the current trend slowing is high.
This can be used to recognize a powerful trend may be concluding. Traders can tighten stops, exit positions or utilize other prudent strategies.
CONCEPTS
Each line will display green if it is higher than the prior period and red if it is lower than the prior period. If the average is green it is considered bullish and will score one point in the bullish display. Red lines are considered bearish and will score one point in the bearish display.
The indicator can then be used at a quick glance to see the number of averages that are bullish and the number that are bearish.
A trader may use these on any tradable instrument. They can be helpful in stock portfolio management when used with an index like the S&P 500 to determine the strength of the current market trend. This may affect trade decisions like possession size, stop location and other risk factors.
Tomas' Financial Conditions Z Score"The indicator is a composite z-score comprised of the following four components (equally-weighted):
Credit spreads - ICE BofA High Yield Option Adjusted Spread (BAMLH0A0HYM2) and ICE BofA Corporate Index Option Adjusted Spread (BAMLC0A0CM)
Volatility indexes - VIX (S&P 500 implied volatility) and MOVE (US Treasury bond implied volatility)
I've got it set to a 160-day lookback period, which I think is roughly the best setting after some tinkering.
When the z-score is above zero, it throws a red signal - and when the z-score is below zero, it throws a green signal.
This indicator is a follow-on from the "traffic light financial conditions indicator" that I wrote a thread about a couple of months ago.
I moved on from that previous indicator because it is based on the Federal Reserve's NFCI, which is regularly revised, but I didn't take that into account at the time.
So not a great real-time indicator, if the signal can be subsequently revised in the opposite direction weeks later.
This new indicator is based on real-time market data, so there's no revisions, and it also updates daily, as opposed to weekly for the NFCI"
