Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S [CHE]Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S \
Purpose.
Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S \ is built to surface only the cleanest momentum turns: it prints a Buy (B) when a bullish Heikin-Ashi candle forms with virtually no lower wick, and a Sell (S) when a bearish Heikin-Ashi candle forms with no upper wick. Optional Lock mode turns these into one-shot signals that hold the regime (bull or bear) until the opposite side appears. The tool can also project dashed horizontal lines from each signal’s price level to help you manage entries, stops, and partial take-profits visually.
How it works.
The indicator computes standard Heikin-Ashi values from your chart’s OHLC. A bar qualifies as bullish if its HA close is at or above its HA open; bearish if below. Then the wick on the relevant side is compared to the bar’s HA range. If that wick is smaller than your selected percentage threshold (plus a tiny tick epsilon to avoid rounding noise), the raw condition is considered “wickless.” Only one side can fire; on the rare occasion both raw conditions would overlap, the bar is ignored to prevent false dual triggers. When Lock is enabled, the first valid signal sets the active regime (background shaded light green for bull, light red for bear) and suppresses further same-side triggers until the opposite side appears, which helps reduce overtrading in chop.
Why wickless?
A missing wick on the “wrong” side of a Heikin-Ashi candle is a strong hint of persistent directional pressure. In practice, this filters out hesitation bars and many mid-bar flips. Traders who prefer entering only when momentum is decisive will find wickless bars useful for timing entries within an established bias.
Visuals you get.
When a valid buy appears, a small triangle “B” is plotted below the bar and a green dashed line can extend to the right from the signal’s HA open price. For sells, a triangle “S” above the bar and a red dashed line do the same. These lines act like immediate, price-anchored references for stop placement and profit scaling; you can shift the anchor left by a chosen number of bars if you prefer the line to start a little earlier for visual alignment.
How to trade it
Establish context first.
Pick a timeframe that matches your style: intraday index or crypto traders often use 5–60 minutes; swing traders might prefer 2–4 hours or daily. The tool is agnostic, but the cleanest results occur when the market is already trending or attempting a fresh breakout.
Entry.
When a B prints, the simplest rule is to enter long at or just after bar close. A conservative variation is to require price to take out the high of the signal bar in the next bar(s). For S, invert the logic: enter short on or after close, or only if price breaks the signal bar’s low.
Stop-loss.
Place the stop beyond the opposite extreme of the signal HA bar (for B: under the HA low; for S: above the HA high). If you prefer a static reference, use the dashed line level (signal HA open) or an ATR buffer (e.g., 1.0–1.5× ATR(14)). The goal is to give the trade enough room that normal noise does not immediately knock you out, while staying small enough to keep the risk contained.
Take-profit and management.
Two pragmatic approaches work well:
R-multiple scaling. Define your initial risk (distance from entry to stop). Scale out at 1R, 2R, and let a runner go toward 3R+ if structure holds.
Trailing logic. Trail behind a short moving average (e.g., EMA 20) or progressive swing points. Many traders also exit on the opposite signal when Lock flips, especially on faster timeframes.
Position sizing.
Keep risk per trade modest and consistent (e.g., 0.25–1% of account). The indicator improves timing; it does not replace risk control.
Settings guidance
Max lower wick for Bull (%) / Max upper wick for Bear (%).
These control how strict “wickless” must be. Tighter values (0.3–1.0%) yield fewer but cleaner signals and are great for strong trends or low-noise instruments. Looser values (1.5–3.0%) catch more setups in volatile markets but admit more noise. If you notice too many borderline bars triggering during high-volatility sessions, increase these thresholds slightly.
Lock (one-shot until opposite).
Keep Lock ON when you want one decisive signal per leg, reducing noise and signal clusters. Turn it OFF only if your plan intentionally scales into trends with multiple entries.
Extended lines & anchor offset.
Leave lines ON to maintain a visual memory of the last trigger levels. These often behave like near-term support/resistance. The offset simply lets you start that line one or more bars earlier if you prefer the look; it does not change the math.
Colors.
Use distinct bull/bear line colors you can read easily on your theme. The default lime/red scheme is chosen for clarity.
Practical examples
Momentum continuation (long).
Price is above your baseline (e.g., EMA 200). A B prints with a tight lower wick filter. Enter on close; stop under the signal HA low. Price pushes up in the next bars; you scale at 1R, trail the rest with EMA 20, and finally exit when a distant S appears or your trail is hit.
Breakout confirmation (short).
Following a range, price breaks down and prints an S with no upper wick. Enter short as the bar closes or on a subsequent break of the signal bar’s low. If the next bar immediately rejects and prints a bullish HA bar, your stop above the signal HA high limits damage. Otherwise, ride the move, harvesting partials as the red dashed line remains unviolated.
Alerts and automation
Set alerts to “Once Per Bar Close” for stability.
Bull ONE-SHOT fires when a valid buy prints (and Lock allows it).
Bear ONE-SHOT fires for sells analogously.
With Lock enabled, you avoid multiple pings in the same direction during a single leg—useful for webhooks or mobile notifications.
Reliability and limitations
The script calculates from completed bars and does not use higher-timeframe look-ahead or repainting tricks. Heikin-Ashi smoothing can lag turns slightly, which is expected and part of the design. In narrow ranges or whipsaw conditions, signals naturally thin out; if you must trade ranges, either tighten the wick filters and keep Lock ON, or add a trend/volatility filter (e.g., trade B only above EMA 200; S only below). Remember: this is an indicator, not a strategy. If you want exact statistics, port the triggers into a strategy and backtest with your chosen entry, stop, and exit rules.
Final notes
Wickless Heikin Ashi B/S \ is a precision timing tool: it waits for decisive, wickless HA bars, provides optional regime locking to reduce noise, and leaves clear price anchors on your chart for disciplined management. Use it with a simple framework—trend bias, fixed risk, and a straightforward exit plan—and it will keep your execution consistent without cluttering the screen or your decision-making.

CNS - RSI CandlesPlots RSI candles instead of a line, although user still has option to use line type RSI.
My version corrects inconsistencies I have found in all the other available RSI candle indicators and should be more accurate.
Both options allow use of fast and slow double EMAs for crossover strategies.
User also has the option to apply Heikin-Ashi smoothing to the RSI candles without having to use Heikin-Ashi candles on the main price chart for the underlying ticker.
Heikin Ashi VolumeHeikin Ashi candles decrease market noise so that broader trends can be more easily visualized. In a typical chart utilizing Heikin Ashi candles, volume bars are colored in such a way that they also allow for the visualization of trends during a bullish/bearish move.
The Heikin Ashi Volume indicator allows the trader to continue to use the same volume bar coloring technique to visualize trends without having to utilize the Heikin Ashi candles, since a Heikin Ashi candle’s OHLC values are not true prices but instead based on calculations in order to provide the ‘denoising’ effect they are known for.
In addition to providing the Heikin Ashi Volume coloring effects, the Heikin Ashi Volume indicator also allows the user to set a volume threshold level where the bar colors will be darker unless volume is beyond that threshold, helping traders quickly determine if there is enough participation in the market at that time to justify taking risk in a trade when the market isn’t very active. The user has the option to show or hide the threshold line, change the colors of the bullish/bearish colors (for both above and below threshold volumes) and the option for the indicator to gradually brighten the bar colors are they approach the threshold instead of having a clear line of demarcation showing volume above or below the set threshold.

The "Hive HeikinAshi" is your ultimate tool for simplifying the chaotic world of price charts. Imagine a specialized lens that cuts through all the market "noise" – those tiny, confusing movements – and reveals the clear, underlying current of price action. This indicator transforms standard, sometimes choppy, candlestick charts into a powerful, trend-focused visualization. It’s designed to help every trader, whether you're a discretionary trader seeking cleaner structures or a quant enthusiast looking for visual cues to complement models, Hive HeikinAshi provides a simplified yet highly informative lens through which to read price action.
Its main advantage lies in its seamless compatibility with external indicators — offering a next-level smoothing foundation that enhances the clarity and reliability of any existing trend, momentum, or signal-based system layered on top of it.
__________________________________________________________________________
🧠 CONCEPTS
At its core, the "Hive HeikinAshi" isn't just another way to look at candles; it's a profound re-interpretation of price dynamics. It employs a sophisticated internal process to distill raw market movements into a more coherent, trend-identifying display, making the market's story incredibly easy to read.
The "Hive" Transformation: Unlike traditional candlesticks that show every small price fluctuation, the "Hive HeikinAshi" candles are intelligently constructed to smooth out the data. They are derived from a multi-point calculation process, creating a new, more consistent visual representation of price. This transformation helps to reduce the "visual clutter" and make trend following a much more intuitive experience. You'll see the forest, not just the trees.
⬜ Highlights dominant price direction by filtering reactive fluctuations
⬜ Visually separates impulsive vs corrective behavior with clear color transitions
⬜ Enables quicker discretionary recognition of trend shifts without complex overlays
⬜ Ideal for confirming momentum zones and stable trending phases
⬜ The Intelligent Filter. An optional yet powerful "Filter" mechanism has been integrated, providing an additional layer of analytical discernment.
⬜ Designed to integrate natively with trend-following, oscillator, or signal indicators — enabling amplified precision across diverse trading systems
A significant advantage of the "Hive HeikinAshi" is its inherent ability to minimize distracting "noise" from typical candle wicks. While standard candles can often show long, confusing wicks that obscure the true body direction, our specialized candles are engineered to emphasize the core directional move. This intelligent design allows you to focus on the momentum generated by the candle's body, rather than getting sidetracked by fleeting price extremes, thereby providing a cleaner, more reliable visual of trend strength.
__________________________________________________________________________
✨ FEATURES
Hive HeikinAshi includes several key features designed for both clarity and functionality:
🔹Multi-Bar Averaging
Generates a visually balanced candle structure using averaged pricing across configurable recent bars.
🔹 Wickless Visualization
Candles are rendered without upper/lower shadows, enhancing trend detection and reducing signal confusion.
🔹 Signal Filter
Adaptive color filter using a dynamic high/low lookback logic
🔹 Directional Color Coding
Clean green/red coloring helps instantly interpret bullish or bearish pressure.
🔹 Adjustable History Depth
Customize how many bars are considered in the smoothing process to match your style and timeframe.
🔹 Invisible Price Feed Outputs
Underlying smoothed OHLC values are available for custom strategies or overlays.
🔹Non-Repainting Logic for Historical Reliability
Each "Hive HeikinAshi" is plotted only when its internal reconstruction conditions are fully met and confirmed. This ensures that the historical display of HeikinAshi does not repaint, providing a high degree of reliability and trust in past signals and visualizations.
🔹Cross-Market Versatility
This indicator is engineered to perform with precision across all major markets—whether you're trading forex, commodities, stocks, or indices. Its adaptive logic automatically aligns with the unique volatility and structure of each asset class, delivering consistently reliable insights no matter where you trade.
__________________________________________________________________________
⚙️ USAGE
Using Hive HeikinAshi is simple and effective:
📥 Add to Chart
Once access is granted, apply the indicator to any timeframe or asset directly from your TradingView invite-only indicators list.
⚙️ Tweak “No. of Bars”
This setting controls how far back the smoothing engine looks.
• Lower values = more responsive, shorter-term smoothing
• Higher values = steadier candles, better for macro trends
🎚️ Next, consider the "Filter" option:
Turn this on to activate the advanced filtering mechanism. Then, adjust the "lookback bars" (from 1 to 10). A smaller number here will make the filter more responsive to immediate "Hive HeikinAshi" candle extremes, while a larger number will require a more sustained breakout from the recent filtered range. Experiment to discover the optimal "sweet spot" that best reveals the underlying market flow for your specific strategy. The tooltip guides you to this optimal setting.
Disable "Filter": If turned off, the candles will revert to a more direct HeikinAshi coloration based purely on their calculated open and close, without the additional layer of range filtering.
🔍 Interpreting Candles
• 🟢 Green Candle: Bullish continuation zone
• 🔴 Red Candle: Bearish pressure dominates
• Lack of wick = strong directional conviction
Combine with your favorite indicators — Hive HeikinAshi acts as a foundation to reduce noise and enhance clarity across tools like EMAs, MACD, VWAP, and more.
__________________________________________________________________________
⚠️ LIMITATIONS
While Hive HeikinAshi provides clear visual advantages, it is important to understand its scope:
👉 Not a Signal Generator: This indicator excels at identifying and confirming trends, making it less suitable for pinpointing exact, high-frequency entry and exit points that require unadulterated real-time price. It prioritizes overall directional clarity.
👉 Lag by Design: Due to multi-bar data smoothing, candles reflect stable price behavior but not ultra-short-term fluctuations.
👉 No Volume or Macro Inputs: Hive HeikinAshi focuses purely on price structure — it does not include volume, news, or external conditions.
👉 Filter Calibration: While the "Filter" enhances clarity, its effectiveness is dependent on appropriate "lookback bars" calibration. Users should understand that adding filtering inherently balances responsiveness with a more refined signal, and finding the optimal setting is part of the analytical process.

Heikin-Ashi Trend ScalpHeikin-Ashi Trend Scalp is an indicator for TradingView, designed to identify short-term trends and entry points based on Heikin-Ashi candles and EMA crossovers.
Key Features:
Attention Signals: Early warning of potential entry points.
Buy/Sell Signals: Filtered signals based on the prevailing trend.
Filters (Slow Mode, Shadow Filter): Help reduce the number of false signals.
Shadow Filter: Eliminates false signals caused by shadows against the trend.
The warning bar should not have any shadow against the trend.
If the bar with the buy/sell signal has a shadow that crosses the opening level of the warning bar, the signal disappears.
Since the signal may disappear as the candle forms, entries should only be made after the signal has been confirmed.
It is not recommended to disable the Shadow Filter, as doing so may lead to an increase in false signals.
Slow Mode: Reduces false signals by using longer-term EMA crossovers. For timeframes of 1–5 minutes, it is recommended to use Slow Mode to reduce false signals.
EMA Lines (7, 21, 50): Displayed for trend determination. Depending on the selected mode: in standard mode, EMA 21 (fast) is shown, in Slow Mode, the longer-term EMA 50 (slow) is displayed.
Stop-Loss Price: Automatically set at the opening level of the candle two bars ago and displayed on the chart.
RSI: Displays the current value of the RSI indicator and visualizes it with color:
Red — for overbought conditions (above 70).
Green — for oversold conditions (below 30).
Yellow — for values in the neutral zone (between 30 and 70).
Alerts: Notifications for new signals in real-time.
The indicator is ideal for scalping and short-term trading, especially when used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools.
3 Heiken Ashi# Heiken Ashi Overlay Indicator
This custom indicator overlays the last three Heiken Ashi candles on your regular candlestick chart, providing traders with immediate trend direction insights without switching between chart types.
## Key Features
- **Real-time Overlay**: Displays three most recent Heiken Ashi candles on the right side of your chart
- **Color Coding**: Green candles indicate upward momentum, red candles show downward momentum
- **Timeframe Adaptive**: Maintains consistent display across all timeframes
- **Clean Visualization**: Clear separation between regular candlesticks and Heiken Ashi overlay
## Trading Applications
**Trend Confirmation**
- Green Heiken Ashi candles suggest strengthening bullish momentum
- Red Heiken Ashi candles indicate developing bearish pressure
- The sequence of colors helps identify potential trend reversals
**Decision Making Benefits**
- Quick trend assessment without chart switching
- Enhanced signal confirmation
- Reduced noise in trend identification
- Improved entry and exit timing
## Technical Details
The indicator uses standard Heiken Ashi calculations:
- HA Close = (Open + High + Low + Close)/4
- HA Open = Previous HA (Open + Close)/2
- HA High = Maximum(High, HA Open, HA Close)
- HA Low = Minimum(Low, HA Open, HA Close)
## Usage Tips
1. Use alongside your regular technical analysis
2. Watch for color changes as early trend reversal signals
3. Consider the size of Heiken Ashi candles for momentum strength
4. Compare with price action on the main chart for confirmation
This overlay combines the smoothing benefits of Heiken Ashi with the precision of regular candlesticks, offering traders a powerful tool for trend analysis and decision-making.
SuperTrend Heikin AshiSupertrend Heikin Ashi is an indicator based on the standard calculation of the Supertrend with the difference of using the Open and Close value of the Heikin Ashi candles instead of the normal Candle Sticks.
In this way the main characteristic of the HA candles is exploited, thus filtering movements that could generate false signals.
I recommend using SPY, SPX, QQQ to be aware of the market situation, not operating (or paying great attention) long on stocks when the indicator is red and the price is below the drawn line.
Lanczos CandlesThis indicator reconstructs price action using Lanczos resampling, incorporating lower timeframe data to create a more detailed representation of market movements. Traditional candle aggregation on higher timeframes tends to lose some price action detail - this indicator attempts to preserve more of that information through mathematical resampling.
The indicator samples price data from a lower timeframe and uses the Lanczos algorithm, a mathematical method commonly used in signal processing and image resampling, to reconstruct the price series at the chart's timeframe. The process helps maintain price movements that might otherwise be smoothed out in regular candle aggregation.
The main settings allow you to select the source timeframe for sampling, adjust the Lanczos filter width to balance smoothness versus detail preservation, and optionally enable Heikin Ashi calculation. The filter width parameter (default: 3) affects how aggressive the smoothing is - higher values produce smoother results while lower values retain more of the original variation.
This approach can be useful for technical analysis when you want to work with higher timeframes while maintaining awareness of significant price movements that occurred within those candles. The optional Heikin Ashi mode can help visualize trends in the resampled data.
The indicator works best when there's a clear ratio between your chart timeframe and the source timeframe (for example, using 1-minute data to build 5-minute candles).
Smoothed Heiken Ashi Trend FilterThis indicator applies the Heiken Ashi technique with added smoothing and trend filtering to help reduce noise and improve trend detection.
Components of the Indicator:
Heiken Ashi Calculations:
Heiken Ashi Close (ha_close): This is the smoothed average of the current bar’s open, high, low, and close prices, calculated with a simple moving average (SMA) to filter out noise.
Heiken Ashi Open (ha_open): This is the average of the previous Heiken Ashi Open and the current Heiken Ashi Close. It’s also initialized to smooth the transition on the first bar.
Heiken Ashi High (ha_high) and Low (ha_low): These values are calculated as the highest and lowest values among the high, Heiken Ashi Open, and Heiken Ashi Close for each bar.
Smoothing and Noise Reduction:
Smoothing Length: The indicator applies a smoothing length to the Heiken Ashi Close, calculated with an SMA. This reduces minor fluctuations, giving a clearer view of the price action.
Minimum Body Size Filter: This filter calculates the body size of each Heiken Ashi candle and compares it to a percentage of the Average True Range (ATR). Only significant candles (those with larger bodies) are plotted, reducing weak or indecisive signals.
Trend Filtering with Moving Average:
The indicator uses a simple moving average (SMA) as a trend filter. By comparing the Heiken Ashi Close to the moving average:
Bullish Trend: The Heiken Ashi candle is green when it’s above the moving average.
Bearish Trend: The Heiken Ashi candle is red when it’s below the moving average.
How to Use This Indicator:
Trend Identification:
Green candles signify a bullish trend, while red candles signify a bearish trend.
The smoothing and trend filtering make it easier to identify sustained trends and avoid reacting to short-term fluctuations.
Filtering Out Noise:
Minor price fluctuations and small-bodied candles (often resulting in indecisive signals) are filtered out, leaving only significant signals.
Adjustable Parameters:
Smoothing Length: Controls the degree of smoothing applied to the Heiken Ashi Close value. Increasing this value will make the Heiken Ashi candles smoother.
Minimum Body Size: This is a percentage of the ATR, used to filter out small or indecisive candles.
Trend Moving Average Length: Controls the period of the moving average used as a trend filter.
This Smoothed Heiken Ashi Trend Filter indicator is useful for identifying trends and filtering out noisy signals. By smoothing and filtering, it helps traders focus on the overall trend rather than minor price movements.

OBV based on Heikin-AshiDescription
This indicator calculates the On-Balance Volume (OBV) based on Heikin-Ashi candles rather than regular candlesticks.
OBV based on Heikin-Ashi: The OBV is calculated based on Heikin-Ashi candle trends. Volume is added when the Heikin-Ashi close is above the open (bullish) and subtracted when the close is below the open (bearish).
Volume Analysis: This approach helps traders identify significant volume shifts in a smoother trend environment, reducing market noise that often accompanies traditional candlestick charts.
説明

Heikin Ashi Price DetectionThis script performs custom calculations for both bullish and bearish bars, providing a numerical result that can be used to gauge price movements and potential trading signals.
How It Works
Bullish Bars:
Calculates the absolute difference between the open and low prices (BullOpenLow).
Calculates the absolute difference between the high and close prices (BullHighClose).
Compares BullOpenLow and BullHighClose:
If BullOpenLow is greater, the difference is divided by BullOpenLow.
If BullHighClose is greater, the difference is divided by BullHighClose.
The result is normalized to a percentage and subtracted from 100 to produce a final value.
Bearish Bars:
Calculates the absolute difference between the close and low prices (BearCloseLow).
Calculates the absolute difference between the high and open prices (BearHighOpen).
Compares BearCloseLow and BearHighOpen:
If BearCloseLow is greater, the difference is divided by BearCloseLow.
If BearHighOpen is greater, the difference is divided by BearHighOpen.
The result is normalized to a percentage and subtracted from 100 to produce a final value.
Key Features
Bullish and Bearish Calculations: The script identifies bullish and bearish bars and applies separate calculations to each.
Normalized Results: The calculations provide a normalized result that can be easily interpreted.
Visual Representation: Results are plotted on the chart for quick visual reference.
Pivot Points with MID LevelsThis indicator shows the Standard Pivot Points level based on daily values that can act as support and resistance. It is used by a variety of traders around the world. You can select which time frame Pivot Point Levels you'd like. Daily, weekly etc... Perfect for swing trading or day trading.
Pivot Points- Shows 3 levels of resistance, the Pivot Point and 3 levels of support
(R3, R2, R1, PIVOT POINT, S1, S2, S3
MID Levels- The MID levels are 50% retracement from the pivot point level above it and below
Example- R3, MID, R2, MID, R1, MID, PIVOT POINT, MID, S1, MID, S2, MID, S3
With this indicator you will also have the option to show the Previous days High and Low that are also important levels. On gap up/down days it is always interesting to see if price will close the gap, hence the important level to note.
PDH= Previous Days High
PDL= Previous Days Low
I have added a feature that you can now select specific color to each level and the line style for each level to help understand which levels are being show by personal needs.
Happy Trading
Dead Simple Heikin Ashi Candles (HA Candles)Are you looking for a dead simple calculation of the Heikin Ashi candles as they are calculated in tradingview? Here it is!
I was looking through the library and I saw that many have come up with a lot of awesome scripts using heikin ashi candles. But, I can't find anywhere that had the straightforward simple version of how Tradingview calculates them. This was a problem for me because I realized after punching the formula in that TradingView doesn't calculate HA candles in the original way.
You might say they don't calculate them the "right" but, spoiler alert, there is no right in trading. You can only be rational or irrational as you make money or lose money.
This is useful to me for building out some portions of an algo that are not going to be compatible with the built-in function. It happens. So, if you were looking for it too, hopefully it saves you some time.
For reference the original calc of HA candles is:
o = (prev_HA_open + prev_HA_close) / 2
h = math.max(high, ha_open, ha_close)
l = math.min(low, ha_open, ha_close)
c = ohlc4
Trade Well.
Heikin Ashi RSI + OTT [Erebor]Relative Strength Index (RSI)
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a popular momentum oscillator used in technical analysis to measure the speed and change of price movements. Developed by J. Welles Wilder, the RSI is calculated using the average gains and losses over a specified period, typically 14 days. Here's how it works:
Description and Calculation:
1. Average Gain and Average Loss Calculation:
- Calculate the average gain and average loss over the chosen period (e.g., 14 days).
- The average gain is the sum of gains divided by the period, and the average loss is the sum of losses divided by the period.
2. Relative Strength (RS) Calculation:
- The relative strength is the ratio of average gain to average loss.
The RSI oscillates between 0 and 100. Traditionally, an RSI above 70 indicates overbought conditions, suggesting a potential sell signal, while an RSI below 30 suggests oversold conditions, indicating a potential buy signal.
Pros of RSI:
- Identifying Overbought and Oversold Conditions: RSI helps traders identify potential reversal points in the market due to overbought or oversold conditions.
- Confirmation Tool: RSI can be used in conjunction with other technical indicators or chart patterns to confirm signals, enhancing the reliability of trading decisions.
- Versatility: RSI can be applied to various timeframes, from intraday to long-term charts, making it adaptable to different trading styles.
Cons of RSI:
- Whipsaws: In ranging markets, RSI can generate false signals, leading to whipsaws (rapid price movements followed by a reversal).
- Not Always Accurate: RSI may give false signals, especially in strongly trending markets where overbought or oversold conditions persist for extended periods.
- Subjectivity: Interpretation of RSI levels (e.g., 70 for overbought, 30 for oversold) is somewhat subjective and can vary depending on market conditions and individual preferences.
Checking RSIs in Different Periods:
Traders often use multiple timeframes to analyze RSI for a more comprehensive view:
- Fast RSI (e.g., 8-period): Provides more sensitive signals, suitable for short-term trading and quick decision-making.
- Slow RSI (e.g., 32-period): Offers a smoother representation of price movements, useful for identifying longer-term trends and reducing noise.
By comparing RSI readings across different periods, traders can gain insights into the momentum and strength of price movements over various timeframes, helping them make more informed trading decisions. Additionally, divergence between fast and slow RSI readings may signal potential trend reversals or continuation patterns.
Heikin Ashi Candles
Let's consider a modification to the traditional “Heikin Ashi Candles” where we introduce a new parameter: the period of calculation. The traditional HA candles are derived from the open 01, high 00 low 00, and close 00 prices of the underlying asset.
Now, let's introduce a new parameter, period, which will determine how many periods are considered in the calculation of the HA candles. This period parameter will affect the smoothing and responsiveness of the resulting candles.
In this modification, instead of considering just the current period, we're averaging or aggregating the prices over a specified number of periods . This will result in candles that reflect a longer-term trend or sentiment, depending on the chosen period value.
For example, if period is set to 1, it would essentially be the same as traditional Heikin Ashi candles. However, if period is set to a higher value, say 5, each candle will represent the average price movement over the last 5 periods, providing a smoother representation of the trend but potentially with delayed signals compared to lower period values.
Traders can adjust the period parameter based on their trading style, the timeframe they're analyzing, and the level of smoothing or responsiveness they prefer in their candlestick patterns.
Optimized Trend Tracker
The "Optimized Trend Tracker" is a proprietary trading indicator developed by TradingView user ANIL ÖZEKŞİ. It is designed to identify and track trends in financial markets efficiently. The indicator attempts to smooth out price fluctuations and provide clear signals for trend direction.
The Optimized Trend Tracker uses a combination of moving averages and adaptive filters to detect trends. It aims to reduce lag and noise typically associated with traditional moving averages, thereby providing more timely and accurate signals.
Some of the key features and applications of the OTT include:
• Trend Identification: The indicator helps traders identify the direction of the prevailing trend in a market. It distinguishes between uptrends, downtrends, and sideways consolidations.
• Entry and Exit Signals: The OTT generates buy and sell signals based on crossovers and direction changes of the trend. Traders can use these signals to time their entries and exits in the market.
• Trend Strength: It also provides insights into the strength of the trend by analyzing the slope and momentum of price movements. This information can help traders assess the conviction behind the trend and adjust their trading strategies accordingly.
• Filter Noise: By employing adaptive filters, the indicator aims to filter out market noise and false signals, thereby enhancing the reliability of trend identification.
• Customization: Traders can customize the parameters of the OTT to suit their specific trading preferences and market conditions. This flexibility allows for adaptation to different timeframes and asset classes.
Overall, the OTT can be a valuable tool for traders seeking to capitalize on trending market conditions while minimizing false signals and noise. However, like any trading indicator, it is essential to combine its signals with other forms of analysis and risk management strategies for optimal results. Additionally, traders should thoroughly back-test the indicator and practice using it in a demo environment before applying it to live trading.
The following types of moving average have been included: "SMA", "EMA", "SMMA (RMA)", "WMA", "VWMA", "HMA", "KAMA", "LSMA", "TRAMA", "VAR", "DEMA", "ZLEMA", "TSF", "WWMA". Thanks to the authors.

Simple Neural Network Transformed RSI [QuantraSystems]Simple Neural Network Transformed RSI
Introduction
The Simple Neural Network Transformed RSI (ɴɴᴛ ʀsɪ) stands out as a formidable tool for traders who specialize in lower timeframe trading.
It is an innovative enhancement of the traditional RSI readings with simple neural network smoothing techniques.
This unique blend results in fairly accurate signals, tailored for swift market movements. The ɴɴᴛ ʀsɪ is particularly resistant to the usual market noise found in lower timeframes, ensuring a clearer view of short-term trends.
Furthermore, its diverse range of visualization options adds versatility, making it a valuable tool for traders seeking to capitalize on short-duration market dynamics.
Legend
In the Image you can see the BTCUSD 1D Chart with the ɴɴᴛ ʀsɪ in Trend Following Mode to display the current trend. This is visualized with the barcoloring.
Its Overbought and Oversold zones start at 50% and end at 100% of the selected Standard Deviation (default σ = 2), which can indicate extremely rare situations which can lead to either a softening momentum in the trend or even a mean reversion situation.
Here you can also see the original Indicator line and the Heikin Ashi transformed Indicator bars - more on that now.
Notes
Quantra Standard Value Contents:
To draw out all the information from the indicator calculation we have added a Heikin-Ashi (HA) Candle Visualization.
This HA transformation smoothens out the indicator values and gives a more informative look into Momentum and Trend of the Indicator itself.
This allows early entries and exits by observing the HA transformed Indicator values.
To diversify, different visualization options are available, either a classic line, HA transformed or Hybrid, which contains both of the previous.
To make Quantra's Indicators as useful and versatile as possible we have created options
to change the barcoloring and thus the derived signal from the indicator based on different modes.
Option to choose different Modes:
Trend Following (Indicator above mid line counts as uptrend, below is downtrend)
Extremities (Everything going beyond the Deviation Bands in a Mean Reversion manner is highlighted)
Candles (Color of HA candles as barcolor)
Reversion (HA ONLY) (Reversion Signals via the triangles if HA candles change state outside of the Deviation Bands)
- Reversion Signals are indicated by the triangles in the Heikin-Ashi or Hybrid visualization when the HA Candles revert
from downwards to upwards or the other way around OUTSIDE of the SD Bands.
Depending on the Indicator they signal OB/OS areas and can either work as high probability entries and exits for Mean Reversion trades or
indicate Momentum slow downs and potential ranges.
Please use another indicator to confirm this.
Case Study
To effectively utilize the NNT-RSI, traders should know their style and familiarize themselves with the available options.
As stated above, you have multiple modes available that you can combine as you need and see fit.
In the given example mostly only the mode was used in an isolated fashion.
Trend Following:
Purely relied on State Change - Midline crossover
Could be combined with Momentum or Reversion analysis for better entries/exits.
Extremities:
Ideal entry/exit is in the accordingly colored OS/OB Area, the Reversion signaled the latest possible entry/exit.
HA Candles:
Specifically applicable for strong trends. Powerful and fast tool.
Can whip if used as sole condition.
Reversions:
Shows the single entry and exit bars which have a positive expected value outcome.
Can also be used as confirmation or as last signal.
Please note that we always advise to find more confluence by additional indicators.
Traders are encouraged to test and determine the most suitable settings for their specific trading strategies and timeframes.
In the showcased trades the default settings were used.
Methodology
The Simple Neural Network Transformed RSI uses a simple neural network logic to process RSI values, smoothing them for more accurate trend analysis.
This is achieved through a linear combination of RSI values over a specified input length, weighted evenly to produce a neural network output.
// Simple neural network logic (linear combination with weighted aggregation)
var float inputs = array.new_float(nnLength, na)
for i = 0 to nnLength - 1
array.set(inputs, i, rsi1 )
nnOutput = 0.0
for i = 0 to nnLength - 1
nnOutput := nnOutput + array.get(inputs, i) * (1 / nnLength)
nnOutput
This output is then compared against a standard or dynamic mean line to generate trend following signals.
Mean = ta.sma(nnOutput, sdLook)
cross = useMean? 50 : Mean
The indicator also incorporates Heikin Ashi candlestick calculations to provide additional insights into market dynamics, such as trend strength and potential reversals.
// Calculate Heikin Ashi representation
ha = ha(
na(nnOutput ) ? nnOutput : nnOutput ,
math.max(nnOutput, nnOutput ),
math.min(nnOutput, nnOutput ),
nnOutput)
Standard deviation bands are used to create dynamic overbought and oversold zones, further enhancing the tool's analytical capabilities.
// Calculate Dynamic OB/OS Zones
stdv_bands(_src, _length, _mult) =>
float basis = ta.sma(_src, _length)
float dev = _mult * ta.stdev(_src, _length)
= stdv_bands(nnOutput, sdLook,sdMult/2)
= stdv_bands(nnOutput, sdLook, sdMult)
The Standard Deviation bands take defined parameters from the user, in this case sigma of ideally between 2 to 3,
to help the indicator detect extremely improbable conditions and thus take an inversely probable signal from it to forward to the user.
The parameter settings and also the visualizations allow for ample customizations by the trader.

Enhanced McClellan Summation Index
The Enhanced McClellan Summation Index (MSI) is a comprehensive tool that transforms the MSI indicator with Heikin-Ashi visualization, offering improved trend analysis and momentum insights. This indicator includes MACD and it's histogram calculations to refine trend signals, minimize false positives and offer additional momentum analysis.
Methodology:
McClellan Summation Index (MSI) -
The MSI begins by calculating the ratio between advancing and declining issues in the specified index.
float decl = 𝘐𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘦𝘴
float adv = 𝘐𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘢𝘥𝘷𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘦𝘴
float ratio = (adv - decl) / (adv + decl)
It then computes a cumulative sum of the MACD (the difference between a 19-period EMA and a 39-period EMA) of this ratio. The result is a smoothed indicator reflecting market breadth and momentum.
macd(float r) =>
ta.ema(r, 19) - ta.ema(r, 39)
float msi = ta.cum(macd(ratio))
Heikin-Ashi Transformation -
Heikin-Ashi is a technique that uses a modified candlestick formula to create a smoother representation of price action. It averages the open, close, high, and low prices of the current and previous periods. This transformation reduces noise and provides a clearer view of trends.
type bar
float o = open
float h = high
float l = low
float c = close
bar b = bar.new()
float ha_close = math.avg(b.o, b.h, b.l, b.c)
MACD and Histogram -
The Enhanced MSI incorporates MACD and histogram calculations to provide additional momentum analysis and refine trend signals. The MACD represents the difference between the 12-period EMA and the 26-period EMA of the MSI. The histogram is the visual representation of the difference between the MACD and its signal line.
Options:
Index Selection - Choose from TVC:NYA , NASDAQ:NDX , or TVC:XAX to tailor the MSI-HA to the desired market index.
MACD Settings - Adjust the parameters for the MACD calculation to fine-tune the indicator's responsiveness.
Ratio Multiplier - Apply scaling to the MSI to suit different market conditions and indices.
Benefits of Heikin-Ashi -
Smoothed Trends - Heikin-Ashi reduces market noise, providing a more apparent and smoothed representation of trends.
Clearer Patterns - Candlestick patterns are more distinct, aiding in the identification of trend reversals and continuations.
Utility and Use Cases:
Trend & Momentum Analysis - Utilize the tool's Heikin-Ashi visualization for clearer trend identification in confluence with it's MACD and histogram to gain additional insights into the strength and direction of trends, while filtering out potential false positives.
Breadth Analysis - Explore market breadth through the MSI's cumulative breadth indicator, gauging the overall health and strength of the underlying market.
- Alerts Setup Guide -
The Enhanced MSI is a robust indicator that combines the breadth analysis of the McClellan Summation Index with the clarity of Heikin-Ashi visualization and additional momentum insights from MACD and histogram calculations. Its customization options make it adaptable to various indices and market conditions, offering traders a comprehensive tool for trend and momentum analysis.
External Indicator Analysis Overlay | Buy/Sell | HTF Heikin-AshiThis chart overlay offers multiple candlestick display options. The Regular (Japanese) and the Heikin-Ashi candles are well known. The Mari-Ashi (or Renko) option is something special as it should be timeframe independent, so that sideways action should be represented in one candle. That is difficult to realize as an overlay on the normal candlestick structure, but perhaps the chosen implementation is useful nonetheless. The Velocity option is experimental and is designed to show if the price has accelerated too much in a trend direction. In this case, the highs and lows do not reflect the actual highs and lows, but indicate the overshooting velocity. The opening of the candle also depends on the inherent velocity, but the close of the candle is always the actual close. Anyway, it doesn't look very useful, but the option is there.
All options can be applied to higher timeframes. A usable setting is obtained by disabling only the body of the TradingView candles in regular mode and enabling this overlay.
A large part of this overlay consists of buy/sell indication settings. For activation it is necessary to select an external source. For example the “Relative Bi-Directional Volatility Range”, specifically the Trend Shift Signal (TSS). This signal switches from 0 to 1, if the trend becomes bullish or from 0 to -1, if the trend becomes bearish. It will be automatically detected without specifying the Indication Type. Alternatively, the Volatility Moving Average (VMA) would meet the requirements for the Indication Type “Buy = positive | Sell = negative”. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) also fulfills these conditions. Another example is to use any Moving Average with the Indication Type “Buy = rising | Sell = falling”. In the chart above the Hull Moving Average (HMA) is used. In addition, it is possible to reverse the signal, so that positive signals become negative and vice versa. The signals will be labeled as Buy or Sell on the chart.
The user can analyze whether the provided signals are good or bad indications for going long or short or simply for rebalancing a portfolio. Therefore, it is possible to set a starting point for the analysis and choose a weighting for the investments from 0% to 100% of the portfolio. To avoid sleepless nights, a very reliable (and conservative) setting seems to be Rebalancing with 50% (very similar to the well-known 60/40 portfolio). The calculation results are shown in a table.
As a small addition there is the possibility to label the peaks by setting the distance between the highs/lows. This will make the quality of the buy and sell signals even more clear.
On Balance Volume Heikin-Ashi Transformed
The OBV Heikin Ashi indicator is a modified version of the On-Balance Volume indicator that incorporates the Heikin Ashi transformation. This technical tool aims to provide traders with a smoother representation of volume dynamics and price trends.
The OBV Heikin Ashi indicator combines the principles of OBV and Heikin Ashi to offer insights into the volume and price behavior of an asset. Understanding OBV and Heikin Ashi individually will provide a foundation for comprehending the uniqueness and utility of this indicator.
On-Balance Volume:
OBV is a volume-based indicator that measures the cumulative buying and selling pressure in the market. It considers the relationship between volume and price movements to determine the overall strength and direction of a trend. Rising OBV values suggest bullish buying pressure, while falling values indicate bearish selling pressure.
Heikin Ashi:
Heikin Ashi is a Japanese candlestick charting technique that aims to filter out noise and provide a smoother representation of price trends. It calculates each candlestick based on the average of the previous candle's open, close, high, and low prices. Heikin Ashi candles can reveal the underlying trend more clearly by reducing market noise.
Methodology:
The 𝘖𝘉𝘝 𝘏-𝘈 indicator applies the Heikin Ashi transformation to the OBV values. Each OBV value is replaced with a Heikin Ashi equivalent, which is calculated based on the average of the previous Heikin Ashi candle's open and close prices. This transformation smooths out the OBV values and helps identify the overall trend with reduced noise. Additionaly, 2 optional EMAs are included for convergence-divergence analysis.
By applying the Heikin Ashi transformation to OBV, the indicator aims to enhance the readability of volume and trend information, providing traders with a clearer understanding of market dynamics.
Utility:
The 𝘖𝘉𝘝 𝘏-𝘈 indicator can be a valuable tool for traders and investors in analyzing volume and price trends. It offers a smoother representation of OBV values, allowing for easier identification of trend reversals, bullish or bearish market conditions, and potential trading opportunities. Traders can utilize the indicator to confirm price trends, validate support and resistance levels, and enhance their overall trading strategies.
It is worth noting that the effectiveness of the indicator may vary depending on the specific market and trading strategy. It is recommended to combine its analysis with other technical indicators and perform thorough backtesting before making trading decisions.
Key Features:
2 Adjustable EMAs
Normalized Oscillator Mode
