multi ema 이격This script identifies trends by checking the alignment of the current EMA chart using 25 intervals from EMA200.
If the EMA is trending upward from 0, take a long position. If it's trending downward, maintain a short position.
Divergence between the top and bottom is also valid.
If you get a good overall understanding, you will find that it is a very powerful tool.

HIDDEN IMPULSE - Multi-Timeframe Momentum Detection System
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
OVERVIEW
Hidden Impulse is an advanced momentum oscillator that combines the Schaff Trend Cycle (STC) and Force Index into a comprehensive multi-timeframe trading system. Unlike standard implementations of these indicators, this script introduces three distinct trading setups with specific entry conditions, multi-timeframe confirmation, and trend filtering.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ORIGINALITY & KEY FEATURES
This indicator is original in the following ways:
1. DUAL-TIMEFRAME STC ANALYSIS
Standard STC implementations work on a single timeframe. This script
simultaneously analyzes STC on both your trading timeframe and a higher
timeframe, providing trend context and filtering out low-probability signals.
2. FORCE INDEX INTEGRATION
The script combines STC with Force Index (volume-weighted price momentum)
to confirm the strength behind price moves. This combination helps identify
when momentum shifts are backed by genuine buying/selling pressure.
3. THREE DISTINCT TRADING SETUPS
Rather than generic overbought/oversold signals, the indicator provides
three specific, rule-based setups:
- Setup A: Classic trend-following entries with multi-timeframe confirmation
- Setup B: Divergence-based reversal entries (highest probability)
- Setup C: Mean-reversion bounce trades at extreme levels
4. INTELLIGENT FILTERING
All signals are filtered through:
- 50 EMA trend direction (prevents counter-trend trades)
- Higher timeframe STC alignment (ensures macro trend agreement)
- Force Index confirmation (validates volume support)
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS - TECHNICAL EXPLANATION
SCHAFF TREND CYCLE (STC) CALCULATION:
The STC is a cyclical oscillator that combines MACD concepts with stochastic
smoothing to create earlier and smoother trend signals.
Step 1: Calculate MACD
- Fast MA = EMA(close, Length1) — default 23
- Slow MA = EMA(close, Length2) — default 50
- MACD Line = Fast MA - Slow MA
Step 2: First Stochastic Smoothing
- Apply stochastic calculation to MACD
- Stoch1 = 100 × (MACD - Lowest(MACD, Smoothing)) / (Highest(MACD, Smoothing) - Lowest(MACD, Smoothing))
- Smooth result with EMA(Stoch1, Smoothing) — default 10
Step 3: Second Stochastic Smoothing
- Apply stochastic calculation again to the smoothed stochastic
- This creates the final STC value between 0-100
The dual stochastic smoothing makes STC more responsive than MACD while
being smoother than traditional stochastics.
FORCE INDEX CALCULATION:
Force Index measures the power behind price movements by incorporating volume:
Force Raw = (Close - Close ) × Volume
Force Index = EMA(Force Raw, Period) — default 13
Interpretation:
- Positive Force Index = Buying pressure (bulls in control)
- Negative Force Index = Selling pressure (bears in control)
- Force Index crossing zero = Momentum shift
- Divergences with price = Weakening momentum (reversal signal)
TREND FILTER:
A 50-period EMA serves as the trend filter:
- Price above EMA50 = Uptrend → Only LONG signals allowed
- Price below EMA50 = Downtrend → Only SHORT signals allowed
This prevents counter-trend trading which accounts for most losing trades.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
THE THREE TRADING SETUPS - DETAILED
SETUP A: CLASSIC MOMENTUM ENTRY
Concept: Enter when STC exits oversold/overbought zones with trend confirmation
LONG CONDITIONS:
1. Higher timeframe STC > 25 (macro trend is up)
2. Primary timeframe STC crosses above 25 (momentum turning up)
3. Force Index crosses above 0 OR already positive (volume confirms)
4. Price above 50 EMA (local trend is up)
SHORT CONDITIONS:
1. Higher timeframe STC < 75 (macro trend is down)
2. Primary timeframe STC crosses below 75 (momentum turning down)
3. Force Index crosses below 0 OR already negative (volume confirms)
4. Price below 50 EMA (local trend is down)
Best for: Trending markets, continuation trades
Win rate: Moderate (60-65%)
Risk/Reward: 1:2 to 1:3
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
SETUP B: DIVERGENCE REVERSAL (HIGHEST PROBABILITY)
Concept: Identify exhaustion points where price makes new extremes but
momentum (Force Index) fails to confirm
BULLISH DIVERGENCE:
1. Price makes a lower low (LL) over 10 bars
2. Force Index makes a higher low (HL) — refuses to follow price down
3. STC is below 25 (oversold condition)
Trigger: STC starts rising AND Force Index crosses above zero
BEARISH DIVERGENCE:
1. Price makes a higher high (HH) over 10 bars
2. Force Index makes a lower high (LH) — refuses to follow price up
3. STC is above 75 (overbought condition)
Trigger: STC starts falling AND Force Index crosses below zero
Why this works: Divergences signal that the current trend is losing steam.
When volume (Force Index) doesn't confirm new price extremes, a reversal
is likely.
Best for: Reversal trading, range-bound markets
Win rate: High (70-75%)
Risk/Reward: 1:3 to 1:5
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
SETUP C: QUICK BOUNCE AT EXTREMES
Concept: Catch rapid mean-reversion moves when price touches EMA50 in
extreme STC zones
LONG CONDITIONS:
1. Price touches 50 EMA from above (pullback in uptrend)
2. STC < 15 (extreme oversold)
3. Force Index > 0 (buyers stepping in)
SHORT CONDITIONS:
1. Price touches 50 EMA from below (pullback in downtrend)
2. STC > 85 (extreme overbought)
3. Force Index < 0 (sellers stepping in)
Best for: Scalping, quick mean-reversion trades
Win rate: Moderate (55-60%)
Risk/Reward: 1:1 to 1:2
Note: Use tighter stops and quick profit-taking
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
STEP 1: CONFIGURE TIMEFRAMES
Primary Timeframe (STC - Primary Timeframe):
- Leave empty to use your current chart timeframe
- This is where you'll take trades
Higher Timeframe (STC - Higher Timeframe):
- Default: 30 minutes
- Recommended ratios:
* 5min chart → 30min higher TF
* 15min chart → 1H higher TF
* 1H chart → 4H higher TF
* Daily chart → Weekly higher TF
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
STEP 2: ADJUST STC PARAMETERS FOR YOUR MARKET
Default (23/50/10) works well for stocks and forex, but adjust for:
CRYPTO (volatile):
- Length 1: 15
- Length 2: 35
- Smoothing: 8
(Faster response for rapid price movements)
STOCKS (standard):
- Length 1: 23
- Length 2: 50
- Smoothing: 10
(Balanced settings)
FOREX MAJORS (slower):
- Length 1: 30
- Length 2: 60
- Smoothing: 12
(Filters out noise in 24/7 markets)
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
STEP 3: ENABLE YOUR PREFERRED SETUPS
Toggle setups based on your trading style:
Conservative Trader:
✓ Setup B (Divergence) — highest win rate
✗ Setup A (Classic) — only in strong trends
✗ Setup C (Bounce) — too aggressive
Trend Trader:

Conservative approach:
- Exit when STC reaches opposite level
- LONG: Exit when STC > 75
- SHORT: Exit when STC < 25
Aggressive approach:
- Hold until opposite signal appears
- Trail stop as STC moves in your favor
Partial profits:
- Take 50% at 1:2 risk/reward
- Let remaining 50% run to target
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT TO AVOID:
❌ Trading Setup A in sideways/choppy markets
→ Wait for clear trend or use Setup B only
❌ Ignoring higher timeframe STC
→ Always check orange dots align with your direction
❌ Taking signals against the major trend
→ If weekly trend is down, be cautious with longs
❌ Overtrading Setup C
→ Maximum 2-3 bounce trades per session
❌ Trading during low volume periods
→ Force Index becomes unreliable

EXAMPLE TRADE WALKTHROUGH
SETUP B DIVERGENCE LONG EXAMPLE:
1. Market Context:
- Price in downtrend, below 50 EMA
- Multiple lower lows forming
- STC below 25 (oversold)
2. Divergence Formation:
- Price makes new low at $45.20
- Force Index refuses to make new low (higher low forms)
- This indicates selling pressure weakening
3. Signal Trigger:
- STC starts turning up
- Force Index crosses above zero
- Label appears: "LONG B DIV"
4. Trade Execution:
- Entry: $45.50 (current price at signal)
- Stop Loss: $44.80 (below divergence low)
- Target 1: $47.90 (STC reaches 75) — risk/reward 1:3.4
- Target 2: Opposite signal or trail stop
5. Trade Management:
- Price rallies to $47.20
- STC reaches 68 (approaching target zone)
- Take 50% profit, move stop to breakeven
- Exit remaining at $48.10 when STC crosses 75
Result: 3.7R gain
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ADVANCED TIPS
1. MULTI-TIMEFRAME CONFLUENCE
For highest probability trades, wait for:
- Primary TF signal
- Higher TF STC aligned (>25 for longs, <75 for shorts)
- Even higher TF trend in same direction (manual check)
2. VOLUME CONFIRMATION
Watch the Force Index histogram:
- Increasing bar size = Strengthening momentum
- Decreasing bar size = Weakening momentum
- Use this to gauge signal strength
3. AVOID THESE MARKET CONDITIONS
- Major news events (Force Index becomes erratic)
- Market open first 30 minutes (volatility spikes)
- Low liquidity instruments (Force Index unreliable)
- Extreme trending days (wait for pullbacks)
4. COMBINE WITH SUPPORT/RESISTANCE
Best signals occur near:
- Key horizontal levels
- Fibonacci retracements
- Previous day's high/low
- Psychological round numbers
5. SESSION AWARENESS
- Asia session: Use lower timeframes, Setup C works well
- London session: Setup A and B both effective
- New York session: All setups work, highest volume

Relative Vigor Index with Divergence and SMA FilterThis script implements the Relative Vigor Index (RVI), originally developed by John Ehlers, enhanced with three practical analytical layers:
1. Configurable SMA filter applied to the RVI line (default: 14 periods) to smooth noise and clarify the underlying momentum trend.
2. Automated divergence detection between price action and the RVI oscillator, identifying both:
- Regular divergences ("R"): potential reversal signals (e.g., price makes a lower low while RVI makes a higher low).
- Hidden divergences ("H"): potential continuation signals (e.g., price makes a higher low while RVI makes a lower low).
3.Visual aids: labeled markers ("R"/"H") and connecting lines to make divergence patterns immediately recognizable.
Unlike basic RVI implementations, this version is designed to highlight momentum-price decoupling—a core concept in technical analysis—using robust pivot detection (`ta.pivotlow`/`ta.pivothigh`) with user-defined lookback and search ranges (default: 5–60 bars). The SMA filter helps traders distinguish between genuine momentum shifts and short-term volatility.
How it works:
- The RVI is calculated as the ratio of smoothed (close – open) to smoothed (high – low), reflecting the idea that in uptrends, closes tend to occur near highs, and in downtrends, near lows.
- Divergences are confirmed only when both a valid price pivot and a corresponding RVI pivot occur within the specified bar range.
- Hidden bearish divergences are disabled by default to reduce noise on shorter timeframes.
Suggested use:
- Use regular bullish divergences near negative RVI extremes as potential long setups.
- Watch for regular bearish divergences at positive RVI peaks as early reversal warnings.
- Combine with support/resistance or trend structure for higher-confidence entries.
This script is not a simple mashup: the integration of divergence logic with the RVI’s unique behavior, configurable sensitivity, and clean visualization provides a cohesive analytical tool that goes beyond standard implementations.

RVI with SMA Smoothing and Divergence SignalsThis script enhances the Relative Volatility Index (RVI)—originally introduced by Donald Dorsey in 1993—by integrating three complementary analytical features:
1. SMA-based smoothing of the RVI line to reduce noise and clarify the underlying volatility momentum trend.
2. Automated detection of regular and hidden divergences between price action (highs/lows) and RVI pivots, using robust `ta.pivotlow` and `ta.pivothigh` logic with configurable lookback and search ranges.
3. Visual labels ("R" for regular, "H" for hidden) and color-coded pivot markers to help traders quickly identify potential reversal or continuation zones.
Unlike basic RVI implementations, this version is designed to highlight momentum-price decoupling, a key concept in technical analysis. The divergence engine is synchronized with RVI’s unique 0–100 scale and volatility-based calculation, ensuring signals are contextually relevant—not generic overlays.
How it works:
- RVI is computed using standard deviation of directional price changes, normalized to 0–100.
- A user-defined SMA (default: 14 periods) smooths the RVI for trend clarity.
- Divergences are confirmed only when both a valid price pivot and a corresponding RVI pivot occur within a configurable bar range (default: 5–60 bars).
- Hidden bearish divergences are disabled by default to reduce noise on short-term charts.
Suggested use:
- Regular bullish divergences near the 20 (oversold) level may signal exhaustion of a downtrend.
- Regular bearish divergences above 80 (overbought) can warn of upward momentum loss.
- Combine with price structure (support/resistance) for higher-probability setups.
This script is **not a simple mashup**: the integration of divergence logic with RVI’s volatility-based nature, parameterized sensitivity controls, and clean visualization provides a cohesive analytical tool not found in standard indicators.

Smart MACD Volume Trader# Smart MACD Volume Trader
## Overview
Smart MACD Volume Trader is an enhanced momentum indicator that combines the classic MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) oscillator with an intelligent high-volume filter. This combination significantly reduces false signals by ensuring that trading signals are only generated when price momentum is confirmed by substantial volume activity.
The indicator supports over 24 different instruments including major and exotic forex pairs, precious metals (gold and silver), energy commodities (crude oil, natural gas), and industrial metals (copper). For forex and commodity traders, the indicator automatically maps to CME and COMEX futures contracts to provide accurate institutional-grade volume data.
## Originality and Core Concept
Traditional MACD indicators generate signals based solely on price momentum, which can result in numerous false signals during low-activity periods or ranging markets. This indicator addresses this critical weakness by introducing a volume confirmation layer with automatic institutional volume integration.
**What makes this approach original:**
- Signals are triggered only when MACD crossovers coincide with elevated volume activity
- Implements a lookback mechanism to detect volume spikes within recent bars
- Automatically detects and maps 24+ forex pairs and commodities to their corresponding CME and COMEX futures contracts
- Provides real institutional volume data for forex pairs where spot volume is unreliable
- Combines two independent market dimensions (price momentum and volume) into a single, actionable signal
- Includes intelligent asset detection that works across multiple exchanges and ticker formats
**The underlying principle:** Volume validates price movement. When institutional money enters the market, it creates volume signatures. By requiring high volume confirmation and using actual institutional volume data from futures markets, this indicator filters out weak price movements and focuses on trades backed by genuine market participation. The automatic futures mapping ensures that forex and commodity traders always have access to the most accurate volume data available, without manual configuration.
## How It Works
### MACD Component
The indicator calculates MACD using standard methodology:
1. **Fast EMA (default: 12 periods)** - Tracks short-term price momentum
2. **Slow EMA (default: 26 periods)** - Tracks longer-term price momentum
3. **MACD Line** - Difference between Fast EMA and Slow EMA
4. **Signal Line (default: 9-period SMA)** - Smoothed average of MACD line
**Crossover signals:**
- **Bullish:** MACD line crosses above Signal line (momentum turning positive)
- **Bearish:** MACD line crosses below Signal line (momentum turning negative)
### Volume Filter Component
The volume filter adds an essential confirmation layer:
1. **Volume Moving Average** - Calculates exponential MA of volume (default: 20 periods)
2. **High Volume Threshold** - Multiplies MA by ratio (default: 2.0x or 200%)
3. **Volume Detection** - Identifies bars where current volume exceeds threshold
4. **Lookback Period** - Checks if high volume occurred in recent bars (default: 5 bars)
**Signal logic:**
- Buy/Sell signals only trigger when BOTH conditions are met:
- MACD crossover/crossunder occurs
- High volume detected within lookback period
### Automatic CME Futures Integration
For forex traders, spot FX volume data can be unreliable or non-existent. This indicator solves this problem by automatically detecting forex pairs and mapping them to corresponding CME futures contracts with real institutional volume data.
**Supported Major Forex Pairs (7):**
- EURUSD → CME:6E1! (Euro FX Futures)
- GBPUSD → CME:6B1! (British Pound Futures)

- Natural Gas (NATGAS) → NYMEX:NG1! (Natural Gas Futures)
**Supported Industrial Metals (1):**
- Copper (COPPER) → COMEX:HG1! (Copper Futures)
**How the automatic detection works:**
The indicator intelligently identifies the asset type by analyzing:
1. Exchange name (FX, OANDA, TVC, COMEX, NYMEX, etc.)
2. Currency pair pattern (6-letter codes like EURUSD, GBPUSD)
3. Commodity identifiers (XAU for gold, XAG for silver, OIL for crude)
When a supported instrument is detected, the indicator automatically switches to the corresponding futures contract for volume analysis. For stocks, cryptocurrencies, and other assets, the indicator uses the native volume data from the current chart.
**Visual feedback:**
An information table appears in the top-right corner of the MACD pane showing:
- Current chart symbol
- Exchange name
- Currency pair or asset name
- Volume source being used (highlighted in orange for futures, yellow for native volume)
- Current high volume status
This provides complete transparency about which data source the indicator is using for its volume analysis.
## How to Use
### Basic Setup
1. Add the indicator to your chart
2. The indicator displays in a separate pane (MACD) and overlay (signals/volume bars)
3. Default settings work well for most assets, but can be customized
### Signal Interpretation
### Visual Signals
**Visual Signals:**
- **Green "BUY" label** - Bullish MACD crossover confirmed by high volume
- **Red "SELL" label** - Bearish MACD crossunder confirmed by high volume
- **Green/Red candles** - Highlight bars with volume exceeding the threshold
- **Light green/red background** - Emphasizes signal bars on the chart

## Trading Strategy Guidelines
### Best Practices
**Recommended markets:**
- Liquid stocks (large-cap, high daily volume)
- Major forex pairs (EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, AUDUSD, USDCAD, USDCHF, NZDUSD)
- Exotic forex pairs (USDMXN, USDRUB, USDBRL, USDZAR)
- Cross pairs (EURJPY, GBPJPY, EURGBP, AUDJPY, EURAUD, GBPAUD)
- Precious metals (Gold, Silver with automatic COMEX futures mapping)
- Energy commodities (Crude Oil, Natural Gas with automatic NYMEX futures mapping)
- Industrial metals (Copper with automatic COMEX futures mapping)
- Major cryptocurrency pairs
- Index futures and ETFs
**Timeframe recommendations:**
- **Day trading:** 5-minute to 15-minute charts
- **Swing trading:** 1-hour to 4-hour charts
- **Position trading:** Daily charts
**Risk management:**
- Use signals as entry confirmation, not standalone strategy
- Combine with support/resistance levels
- Consider overall market trend direction
- Always use stop-loss orders
### Strategy Examples
**Trend Following Strategy:**
1. Identify overall trend using higher timeframe (e.g., daily chart)
2. Trade only in trend direction
3. Use "Only Buy" filter in uptrends, "Only Sell" in downtrends
4. Enter on signal, exit on opposite signal or at resistance/support
**Volume Breakout Strategy:**
1. Wait for consolidation period (low volume, tight MACD range)
2. Enter when signal appears with high volume (confirms breakout)
3. Target previous swing highs/lows
4. Stop loss below/above recent consolidation
**Forex Scalping Strategy (with automatic CME futures):**
1. The indicator automatically detects forex pairs and uses CME futures volume
2. Trade during active sessions only (use session filter)
3. Focus on quick profits (10-20 pips)
4. Exit at opposite signal or profit target
**Commodities Trading Strategy (Gold, Silver, Oil):**
1. The indicator automatically maps to COMEX and NYMEX futures contracts
2. Trade during high-liquidity sessions (overlap of major markets)
3. Use the high volume confirmation to identify institutional entry points
4. Combine with key support and resistance levels for entries
5. Monitor the information table to confirm futures volume is being used (orange color)
6. Exit on opposite MACD signal or at predefined profit targets
## Why This Combination Works
### The Volume Advantage
Studies consistently show that price movements accompanied by high volume are more likely to continue, while low-volume movements often reverse. This indicator leverages this principle by requiring volume confirmation.
**Key benefits:**
1. **Reduced False Signals:** Eliminates MACD whipsaws during low-volume consolidation
2. **Confirmation Bias:** Two independent indicators (price momentum + volume) agreeing
3. **Institutional Alignment:** High volume often indicates institutional participation
4. **Trend Validation:** Volume confirms that price momentum has "conviction"
### Statistical Edge
By combining two uncorrelated signals (MACD crossovers and volume spikes), the indicator creates a higher-probability setup than either signal alone. The lookback mechanism ensures signals aren't missed if volume spike slightly precedes the MACD cross.
## Supported Exchanges and Automatic Detection
The indicator includes intelligent asset detection that works across multiple exchanges and ticker formats:
**Forex Exchanges (Automatic CME Mapping):**
- FX (TradingView forex feed)
- OANDA
- FXCM
- SAXO
- FOREXCOM
- PEPPERSTONE
- EASYMARKETS
- FX_IDC
**Commodity Exchanges (Automatic COMEX/NYMEX Mapping):**
- TVC (TradingView commodity feed)
- COMEX (directly)
- NYMEX (directly)
- ICEUS
**Other Asset Classes (Native Volume):**
- Stock exchanges (NASDAQ, NYSE, AMEX, etc.)
- Cryptocurrency exchanges (BINANCE, COINBASE, KRAKEN, etc.)
- Index providers (SP, DJ, etc.)
The detection algorithm analyzes three factors:
1. Exchange prefix in the ticker symbol
2. Pattern matching for currency pairs (6-letter codes)
3. Commodity identifiers in the symbol name
This ensures accurate automatic detection regardless of which data feed or exchange you use for charting. The information table in the top-right corner always displays which volume source is being used, providing complete transparency.
## Technical Details
**Calculations:**
- MACD Fast MA: EMA(close, fastLength)
- MACD Slow MA: EMA(close, slowLength)
- MACD Line: Fast MA - Slow MA
- Signal Line: SMA(MACD Line, signalLength)
- Volume MA: Exponential MA of volume
- High Volume: Current volume >= Volume MA × Ratio
**Signal logic:**
```
Buy Signal = (MACD crosses above Signal) AND (High volume in last N bars)
Sell Signal = (MACD crosses below Signal) AND (High volume in last N bars)
```

Range Oscillator (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Range Oscillator (Zeiierman) is a dynamic market oscillator designed to visualize how far the price is trading relative to its equilibrium range. Instead of relying on traditional overbought/oversold thresholds, it uses adaptive range detection and heatmap coloring to reveal where price is trading within a volatility-adjusted band.
The oscillator maps market movement as a heat zone, highlighting when the price approaches the upper or lower range boundaries and signaling potential breakout or mean-reversion conditions.
Highlights
Adaptive range detection based on ATR and weighted price movement.
Heatmap-driven coloring that visualizes volatility pressure and directional bias.
Clear transition zones for detecting trend shifts and equilibrium points.
█ How It Works
⚪ Range Detection
The indicator identifies a dynamic price range using two main parameters:
Minimum Range Length: The number of bars required to confirm that a valid range exists.
Range Width Multiplier: Expands or contracts the detected range proportionally to the ATR (Average True Range).
This approach ensures that the oscillator automatically adapts to both trending and ranging markets without manual recalibration.
⚪ Weighted Mean Calculation
Instead of a simple moving average, the script calculates a weighted equilibrium mean based on the size of consecutive candle movements:
Larger price changes are given greater weight, emphasizing recent volatility.
⚪ Oscillator Formula
Once the range and equilibrium mean are defined, the oscillator computes:
Osc = 100 * (Close - Mean) / RangeATR
This normalizes price distance relative to the dynamic range size — producing consistent readings across volatile and quiet periods.
█ Heatmap Logic
The Range Oscillator includes a built-in heatmap engine that color-codes each oscillator value based on recent price interaction intensity:
Strong Bullish Zones: Bright green — price faces little resistance upward.
Weak Bullish Zones: Muted green — uptrend continuation but with minor hesitation.
Transition Zones: Blue — areas of uncertainty or trend shift.
Weak Bearish Zones: Maroon — downtrend pressure but soft momentum.
Strong Bearish Zones: Bright red — strong downside continuation with low resistance.
Each color band adapts dynamically using:
Number of Heat Levels: Controls granularity of the heatmap.
Minimum Touches per Level: Defines how reactive or “sensitive” each color zone is.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend & Momentum Confirmation
When the oscillator stays above +0 with green coloring, it suggests sustained bullish pressure.
Similarly, readings below –0 with red coloring, it suggests sustained bearish pressure.
⚪ Range Breakouts
When the oscillator line breaks above +100 or below –100, the price is exceeding its normal volatility range, often signaling breakout potential or exhaustion extremes.
⚪ Mean Reversion Trades
Look for the oscillator to cross back toward zero after reaching an extreme. These transitions (often marked by blue tones) can identify early reversals or range resets.
⚪ Divergence
Use oscillator peaks and troughs relative to price action to spot hidden strength or weakness before the next move.
█ Settings
Minimum Range Length: Number of bars needed to confirm a valid range.
Range Width Multiplier: Expands or contracts range width based on ATR.
Number of Heat Levels: Number of gradient bands used in the oscillator.
Minimum Touches per Level: Sensitivity threshold for when a zone becomes “hot.”

RSI Breakout Zones█ OVERVIEW
“RSI Breakout Zones” is a technical analysis tool that identifies significant zones on the chart based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI). The indicator maps overbought (OB) and oversold (OS) zones using boxes, then extends them until the next zone of the same type is detected, highlighting breakout points to aid in trade entry decisions. These zones often serve as areas of consolidation, support, or resistance.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator identifies overbought (above 70) and oversold (below 30) zones, drawing boxes that extend until the next zone of the same type (OB for OB, OS for OS) is detected. Breakout signals are generated when the price crosses the zone boundaries, indicating potential shifts in market momentum.
Why are RSI zones important? These zones represent areas of extreme market sentiment, often leading to corrections or reversals. Overbought zones suggest potential selling pressure, while oversold zones indicate buying opportunities. After a breakout, a zone may switch roles, e.g., from support to resistance or vice versa, making it a key element in price action analysis. Larger zones, formed during high volatility, may attract price for retests due to stronger imbalances in buyer/seller dynamics. Consolidation often occurs within these zones as the market seeks equilibrium before further moves. However, in strong trends, zones may be decisively broken without immediate pullbacks, and their significance depends on their position relative to key support and resistance levels.
█ FEATURES
- RSI Zone Detection: Calculates RSI with a customizable length (default 14) and identifies overbought/oversold zones based on user-defined levels (default 70/30), drawing boxes that dynamically adjust to price action within the zone.
- Customizable Boxes: Zones extend until the next zone of the same type is detected. The indicator draws zones with adjustable colors for overbought (red) and oversold (green) areas, with options for box and zone transparency.
- Breakout Signals: Generates upward (green triangle) and downward (red triangle) breakout signals when the price crosses the top or bottom of a zone. Signals appear below or above the bar, indicating potential trade entry points.
- Midline: Automatically draws a dashed line at the midpoint of each zone, helping traders assess price behavior within the zone and potential halfway retests.
- Box Management: Option to remove outdated boxes.
- Alerts: Built-in support for alerts on breakout signals, enabling traders to receive notifications for key zone crossings.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configure Settings:
- RSI Settings: Adjust RSI Length (default 14), Overbought Level (default 70), and Oversold Level (default 30) to tailor zone detection sensitivity—higher lengths smooth signals for longer-term analysis.
- Box Settings: Configure colors and transparency for overbought (red) and oversold (green) zones, including box transparency (default 90) and zone transparency (default 90).
- Signal Settings: Customize breakout signal colors (green for upward, red for downward) and enable/disable keeping boxes after RSI normalization.
Interpreting Signals:
- Upward Breakout Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a breakout, suggesting potential bullish momentum and trend continuation or reversal.
- Downward Breakout Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a breakout, suggesting potential bearish momentum.
- RSI Zones: If the price re-enters a zone after a breakout, it may signal a false breakout or consolidation; persistent zones can act as future support/resistance levels. Consolidation often occurs within these zones as the market seeks equilibrium.
- Use signals alongside other technical analysis tools for confirmation, such as moving averages (to confirm trend direction), Fibonacci levels (to identify key price zones), or volume indicators (to validate breakout strength). Analyze RSI zones on higher timeframes for stronger signals due to broader market context.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Momentum Trading: Use RSI zones as overbought/oversold filters. In an uptrend, look for buying opportunities on upward breakouts, and in a downtrend, on downward breakouts. Combining with MACD crossovers, Fibonacci levels, or pivot points enhances zone significance.
- Inter-Zone Trading: Utilize breakouts from one RSI zone and hold the position until reaching the next zone, which may act as a target level or reversal point.
█ NOTES
- Test the indicator across different timeframes and markets (stocks, forex, crypto) to optimize RSI length and levels for your trading style.
- For best results, use in trending markets where RSI extremes are more predictive; in ranging markets, additional filters are recommended to reduce false signals.
- Always combine with risk management; RSI zones alone do not guarantee reversals, and false breakouts may occur in low-liquidity environments.
TOPIX Relative Strength vs Symbol + Volume Quality (JP)Overview
Relative Strength vs Symbol + Volume Quality (JP) visualizes the relative performance (%) of a stock versus a chosen benchmark (e.g., TOPIX, Nikkei 225, or ETFs) while incorporating volume quality and momentum analysis.
It calculates percentage-point differences between the target and benchmark, smooths them (EMA/SMA), and evaluates whether the strength is supported by quality volume flow.
All data uses confirmed bars only (request.security() with confirmed values) to minimize repainting, and labels are drawn only on confirmed bars.
What It Shows
Relative Performance (%pt): Difference in rate of change between the stock and its benchmark.
Above 0 → outperforming
Below 0 → underperforming
Trend Direction: Short-/mid-term trend from smoothed EMA/SMA.
Volume Quality: Ratio of up-volume to down-volume, scaled from -1 to +1.
Volume Momentum (Z-Score): Measures unusual surges in trading activity.
Strength Detection: Combines price-based strength (relative or z-score) with volume quality and momentum filters.
How to Use
Set your comparison symbol (e.g., TSE:1306, TVC:NI225).
Adjust lookback length and smoothing period/type to fit your analysis window.
Enable “Confirm strength by volume quality” and/or “Use volume Z-score” to filter signals with supportive volume.
Optionally, configure background thresholds to highlight extreme relative strength/weakness.
Use Screener Mode to suppress visual outputs (table/labels) for performance in Pine Screener.
Main Input Groups
Comparison Settings: Benchmark symbol, calculation timeframe.
Period & Smoothing: lookback, smoothLen, and MA type (EMA or SMA).
Price Strength Detection: Enable Z-score mode and adjust zLen / zThresh.
Volume Quality & Momentum: vqThresh (volume quality) and vZth (Z-score threshold).
Display: Toggle histogram tint, background highlight, mini-table, and signal labels.
Background Thresholds: Independent thresholds for histogram/MA lines and colors.
Screener Output: Suppress visuals for screening use.
Output & Coloring
Histogram: Relative performance in %pt. Red = outperforming, Green = underperforming (intensity by magnitude).
White Line (EMA/SMA):
Rising with good volume quality → Red
Rising but poor quality → Yellow
Falling → White
Background: Optional highlight when histogram/MA exceeds user thresholds.
Counters: Hidden plots track how many bars have consecutively exceeded thresholds (usable in screeners).
Alerts
Strength Detection (Price + Volume):
Triggered when price condition (MA > 0 or Z-score > threshold) and volume conditions are met.
Weakness / Loss of Strength:
Triggered on cross-under or when volume conditions fail.
Labels: Optional, shown only on confirmed bars.
Repaint Prevention
All calculations use confirmed bar data only.
Labels appear only when bars close.
On lower timeframes, benchmark update delays may cause minor lag.
Volume quality is derived from up/down bar classification, which can be distorted by gaps or illiquid markets.
Avoid overfitting thresholds — values differ by asset and timeframe.
Practical Applications
Identify outperformance with supportive volume across sectors or themes.
Use streak counters to find consistent relative winners or laggards.
Compare stocks vs sector indices or ETFs to track rotation and momentum shifts.

Trend Following Reflectometry🧭 Trend Following Reflectometry (TFR)
Author: Stef Jonker
Version: Pine Script® v6
The Trend Following Reflectometry (TFR) indicator translates market behavior into the language of impedance and signal reflection theory, providing a unique way to measure trend strength, stability, and purity.
🧩 Summary
Trend Following Reflectometry acts as a trend-quality meter, helping traders identify when a trend is strong, efficient, and worth following — or when the market is too noisy to trust.
It blends physics-inspired logic with practical trading insight, offering both a directional oscillator and a trend stability filter in one tool.
⚙️ Concept
Inspired by electrical impedance matching, this tool compares the market’s characteristic impedance (Z₀) — its natural volatility-to-price behavior — with the load impedance (Zₗ), representing current trend momentum.
The interaction between these two produces a reflection coefficient (Gamma) and a VSWR ratio, which reveal how efficiently market trends are transmitting energy (moving smoothly) versus reflecting noise (becoming unstable).
📊 Core Components
Z₀ (Characteristic Impedance): Market baseline, derived from ATR and SMA.
Zₗ (Load Impedance): Trend momentum based on fast and slow EMAs.
Γ (Gamma – Reflection Coefficient): Measures the mismatch between Z₀ and Zₗ.
VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio): Quantifies trend purity — lower = cleaner trend.
Impedance Oscillator: Combines momentum and reflection to produce directional bias.
⚡ Gamma & VSWR Interpretation
Gamma (Γ) represents the reflection coefficient — how much of the market’s trend energy is being reflected instead of transmitted.
When Gamma is low, the market trend is smooth and efficient, moving with little resistance.
When Gamma is high, the market becomes unstable or overextended, signaling potential turbulence, exhaustion, or reversal pressure.
VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) measures trend purity — how clean or distorted the current trend is.
A low VSWR indicates a well-aligned, steady trend that’s likely to continue smoothly.
A high VSWR suggests an unbalanced or noisy market, where trends may struggle to sustain or could soon reverse.
Together, Gamma and VSWR help identify how well the market’s current momentum aligns with its natural behavior — whether the trend is stable and efficient or reflecting instability beneath the surface.
TRADE ORBIT:-Average Directional Index with Color ZonesThis indicator is a long-term smoothed version of the Average Directional Index (ADX) designed to measure trend strength while filtering out short-term noise.
It applies a 140-period smoothing to the ADX calculation, making it ideal for swing or positional traders who want to identify sustained trends rather than short-lived moves.
🎯 How It Works
The ADX(140) measures the strength of the current trend, regardless of direction.
The background color automatically changes based on the ADX value range to visually highlight the market condition.
ADX Range Background Color Interpretation
0–25 🟡 Yellow Weak trend / ranging market
25–50 🟢 Green Moderate trend strength
50–75 🔵 Blue Strong trend
75–100 🔴 Red Very strong / overheated trend
Horizontal reference lines are also plotted at 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 to make the trend zones clear.
RVI Divergence Detector with Custom SMA Filter (v6)This script enhances the classic Relative Vigor Index (RVI) by integrating divergence detection with a user-configurable SMA filter applied directly to the RVI oscillator. The goal is to help traders identify high-probability reversal and continuation signals by combining momentum analysis with dynamic baseline filtering.
How it works:
- The RVI measures the conviction behind price moves by comparing closing vs. opening prices relative to the high-low range over a 10-period window.
- Divergences are detected when price makes a new high/low but the RVI does not:
- Regular Bullish: Price makes a lower low, RVI makes a higher low → potential reversal up.
- Hidden Bullish: Price makes a higher low, RVI makes a lower low → trend continuation.
- Inverse logic applies for bearish cases.
- A customizable SMA (default: 14 periods) is plotted on the RVI line. This acts as a dynamic reference to assess whether divergences occur in strong momentum zones (far from SMA) or neutral zones (near SMA), helping filter out weaker signals.
- Users can adjust:
- Pivot lookback range (min/max bars)
- SMA period (1–200)
- Visibility of bullish/bearish and hidden/regular divergences
Why this version adds value:
Unlike basic RVI scripts, this adaptation introduces a configurable trend filter (SMA) and clear visual labeling ("D" for regular, "H" for hidden) with colored lines (green/red) connecting oscillator and price pivots—making divergences instantly recognizable. The logic is optimized for both scalping (short SMA) and swing trading (longer SMA).

Earnings Day - Price Predictor [DunesIsland]It's designed to analyze and visualize historical stock price movements on earnings report days, focusing on percentage changes.
Here's a breakdown of what it does, step by step:
Key Inputs and Setup
User Input: There's a single input for "Lookback Years" (default: 10), which determines how far back in time (approximately) the indicator analyzes earnings data. It uses a rough calculation of milliseconds in that period to filter historical data.
Data Fetching: It uses TradingView's request.earnings function to pull actual earnings per share (EPS) data for the current ticker. Earnings days are identified where EPS data exists on a bar but not on the previous one (to avoid duplicates).
Price Change Calculation: For each detected earnings day, it computes the percentage price movement as (close - close ) / close * 100, representing the change from the previous close to the current close on that day.
Processing and Calculations (on the Last Bar)
Lookback Filter: It calculates a cutoff timestamp for the lookback period and processes only earnings events within that window.
Overall Averages:
Separates positive (≥0%) and negative (<0%) percentage changes.
Seasonality (Next Quarter Prediction):
Identifies the most recent earnings quarter (latest_q).
Predicts the "next" quarter (e.g., if latest is Q4, next is Q1;
Again, separates positive and negative changes, computing their respective averages.
Visual Outputs
Lookback: How far to fetch the data in years.
Average Change (Green): Showing the average of all positive changes.
Average Change (Red): Showing the average of all negative changes.
Seasonality Change (Green): Showing the average of positive changes for the predicted next quarter.
Seasonality Change (Red): Showing the average of negative changes for the predicted next quarter.
Purpose and Usage
This indicator helps traders assess a stock's historical reaction to earnings announcements. The overall averages give a broad sense of typical gains/losses, while the seasonality focuses on quarter-specific trends to "predict" potential movement for the upcoming earnings (based on past same-quarter performance). It's best used on daily charts for stocks with reliable earnings data. Note that quarter inference is calendar-based and may not perfectly match fiscal calendars for all companies—it's an approximation.
RSI Colored by Relative StrengthThis indicator enhances the traditional RSI by combining it with Relative Strength (RS) — the ratio of an asset’s price to a chosen benchmark (e.g., SPY, QQQ, BTCUSD) — to create a more accurate, powerful, and dynamic momentum confirmation tool.
Instead of relying solely on RSI’s internal momentum, this version color-codes RSI values and backgrounds based on whether the asset is outperforming, underperforming, or neutral relative to the benchmark, not only identifying the RSI value, but color codes it in relation to the overall market to give more accurate confirmations.
• RS > 1 → The asset is outperforming the benchmark (relative strength).
• RS < 1 → The asset is underperforming.
• RS ≈ 1 → Neutral or moving in sync with the benchmark.
Gradient background zones:
• Green tones = outperformance (RS > 1).
• Red tones = underperformance (RS < 1).
• Gray neutral band = parity (RS ≈ 1).
Intensity adjusts dynamically based on how far RS deviates from 1, giving an at-a-glance view of market leadership strength.
• Color-coded RSI line: Green when RS > 1, red when RS < 1.
• Optional markers and labels show confirmed RS+RSI crossovers with smart spacing to prevent clutter.
• Alerts included for bullish and bearish RS+RSI alignment events.
How to Use
1. Add your preferred benchmark symbol (default: SPY).
2. Move this indicator into the same pane as your RSI (No need to overlay, does so automatically) and can also be used standalone.
3. Watch for:
• Green RSI & background: Significant momentum strength (asset trending upward and outpacing the market).
• Red RSI & background: False or insignificant momentum (asset lagging).
• Gray zone: neutral phase — consolidation or rotation period.
Use this as a trend-confirmation filter rather than a signal generator.
For example:
• Confirm and refine breakout entries when RS > 1 (RSI support = stronger conviction).
• Take profits when RSI weakens and RS slips below 1.
Spread Trading Z-ScoreIndicator: Z-Score Spread Indicator
Description
The "Z-Score Spread Indicator" is a powerful tool for traders employing mean-reversion strategies on the spread between two financial assets (e.g., futures contracts like MNQ and MES). This indicator calculates and plots the Z-score of the price spread, indicating how far the current spread deviates from its historical mean. It features customizable entry and exit thresholds with adjustable offsets, along with an estimated p-value displayed in a table to assess statistical significance.
Key Features
Asset Selection: Allows users to select two asset symbols (e.g., CME_MINI:MNQ1! and CME_MINI:MES1!) via customizable inputs.
Z-Score Calculation: Computes the Z-score based on the spread’s simple moving average and standard deviation over a user-defined lookback period.
Customizable Thresholds with Offset: Offers adjustable base entry and exit thresholds, with an optional offset to fine-tune trading levels, plotted as horizontal lines.
P-Value Estimation: Provides an approximate p-value to evaluate the statistical significance of the Z-score, displayed in a table anchored to the top-left corner.
Visual Representation: Plots the Z-score with a zero line and threshold lines for intuitive interpretation.
Adjustable Parameters
Asset A Symbol: Symbol for Asset A (default: CME_MINI:MNQ1!).
Asset B Symbol: Symbol for Asset B (default: CME_MINI:MES1!).
Z-Score Lookback: Lookback period for Z-score calculation (default: 40, minimum 2).
Base Entry Threshold: Threshold for entry signals (default: 1.8, adjustable with a step of 0.1).
Base Exit Threshold: Threshold for exit signals (default: 0.5, adjustable with a step of 0.1).
Threshold Offset (+/-): Offset to adjust entry and exit thresholds symmetrically (default: 0.0, range -5.0 to 5.0, step 0.1).
Usage
Add the indicator to your chart via the "Indicators" tab.
Customize the parameters based on your preferred assets and trading strategy (lookback period, thresholds, offset).
Observe the Z-score plot and threshold lines (red for short entry, green for long entry, orange dotted for exits) to identify potential trade setups.
Check the p-value table in the top-left corner to assess the statistical significance of the current Z-score.
Use this data to inform mean-reversion trading decisions, ideally in conjunction with other indicators.
Notes
A Z-score above the entry threshold (positive) or below the negative entry threshold suggests a potential short or long entry, respectively. Exits are signaled when the Z-score crosses the exit thresholds.
The p-value is an approximation based on the normal distribution; a value below 0.05 typically indicates statistical significance, but further validation is recommended.
The indicator uses a simple spread (Asset A - Asset B) without volatility adjustments; consider pairing it with a lots calculator for hedging.
Limitations
The p-value is an approximation and may not reflect advanced statistical tests (e.g., ADF) due to Pine Script constraints.
No automatic trading signals are generated; it provides data for manual analysis.

Mean Reversion Oscillator [Alpha Extract]An advanced composite oscillator system specifically designed to identify extreme market conditions and high-probability mean reversion opportunities, combining five proven oscillators into a single, powerful analytical framework.
By integrating multiple momentum and volume-based indicators with sophisticated extreme level detection, this oscillator provides precise entry signals for contrarian trading strategies while filtering out false reversals through momentum confirmation.
🔶 Multi-Oscillator Composite Framework
Utilizes a comprehensive approach that combines Bollinger %B, RSI, Stochastic, Money Flow Index, and Williams %R into a unified composite score. This multi-dimensional analysis ensures robust signal generation by capturing different aspects of market extremes and momentum shifts.
// Weighted composite (equal weights)
normalized_bb = bb_percent
normalized_rsi = rsi
normalized_stoch = stoch_d_val
normalized_mfi = mfi
normalized_williams = williams_r
composite_raw = (normalized_bb + normalized_rsi + normalized_stoch + normalized_mfi + normalized_williams) / 5
composite = ta.sma(composite_raw, composite_smooth)
🔶 Advanced Extreme Level Detection
Features a sophisticated dual-threshold system that distinguishes between moderate and extreme market conditions. This hierarchical approach allows traders to identify varying degrees of mean reversion potential, from moderate oversold/overbought conditions to extreme levels that demand immediate attention.
🔶 Momentum Confirmation System
Incorporates a specialized momentum histogram that confirms mean reversion signals by analyzing the rate of change in the composite oscillator. This prevents premature entries during strong trending conditions while highlighting genuine reversal opportunities.
// Oscillator momentum (rate of change)
osc_momentum = ta.mom(composite, 5)
histogram = osc_momentum
// Momentum confirmation
momentum_bullish = histogram > histogram
momentum_bearish = histogram < histogram
// Confirmed signals
confirmed_bullish = bullish_entry and momentum_bullish
confirmed_bearish = bearish_entry and momentum_bearish
🔶 Dynamic Visual Intelligence
The oscillator line adapts its color intensity based on proximity to extreme levels, providing instant visual feedback about market conditions. Background shading creates clear zones that highlight when markets enter moderate or extreme territories.
🔶 Intelligent Signal Generation
Generates precise entry signals only when the composite oscillator crosses extreme thresholds with momentum confirmation. This dual-confirmation approach significantly reduces false signals while maintaining sensitivity to genuine mean reversion opportunities.
How It Works
🔶 Composite Score Calculation
The indicator simultaneously tracks five different oscillators, each normalized to a 0-100 scale, then combines them into a smoothed composite score. This approach eliminates the noise inherent in single-oscillator analysis while capturing the consensus view of multiple momentum indicators.
// Mean reversion entry signals
bullish_entry = ta.crossover(composite, 100 - extreme_level) and composite < (100 - extreme_level)
bearish_entry = ta.crossunder(composite, extreme_level) and composite > extreme_level
// Bollinger %B calculation
bb_basis = ta.sma(src, bb_length)
bb_dev = bb_mult * ta.stdev(src, bb_length)
bb_percent = (src - bb_lower) / (bb_upper - bb_lower) * 100
🔶 Extreme Zone Identification
The system automatically identifies when markets reach statistically significant extreme levels, both moderate (65/35) and extreme (80/20). These zones represent areas where mean reversion has the highest probability of success based on historical market behavior.
🔶 Momentum Histogram Analysis
A specialized momentum histogram tracks the velocity of oscillator changes, helping traders distinguish between healthy corrections and potential trend reversals. The histogram's color-coded display makes momentum shifts immediately apparent.
🔶 Divergence Detection Framework
Built-in divergence analysis identifies situations where price and oscillator movements diverge, often signaling impending reversals. Diamond-shaped markers highlight these critical divergence patterns for enhanced pattern recognition.
🔶 Real-Time Information Dashboard
An integrated information table provides instant access to current oscillator readings, market status, and individual component values. This dashboard eliminates the need to manually check multiple indicators while trading.
🔶 Individual Component Display
Optional display of individual oscillator components allows traders to understand which specific indicators are driving the composite signal. This transparency enables more informed decision-making and deeper market analysis.
🔶 Adaptive Background Coloring
Intelligent background shading automatically adjusts based on market conditions, creating visual zones that correspond to different levels of mean reversion potential. The subtle color gradations make pattern recognition effortless.
1D
3D
🔶 Comprehensive Alert System
Multi-tier alert system covers confirmed entry signals, divergence patterns, and extreme level breaches. Each alert type provides specific context about the detected condition, enabling traders to respond appropriately to different signal strengths.
🔶 Customizable Threshold Management
Fully adjustable extreme and moderate levels allow traders to fine-tune the indicator's sensitivity to match different market volatilities and trading timeframes. This flexibility ensures optimal performance across various market conditions.
🔶 Why Choose AE - Mean Reversion Oscillator?
This indicator provides the most comprehensive approach to mean reversion trading by combining multiple proven oscillators with advanced confirmation mechanisms. By offering clear visual hierarchies for different extreme levels and requiring momentum confirmation for signals, it empowers traders to identify high-probability contrarian opportunities while avoiding false reversals. The sophisticated composite methodology ensures that signals are both statistically significant and practically actionable, making it an essential tool for traders focused on mean reversion strategies across all market conditions.
Historical Matrix Analyzer [PhenLabs]📊Historical Matrix Analyzer
Version: PineScriptv6
📌Description
The Historical Matrix Analyzer is an advanced probabilistic trading tool that transforms technical analysis into a data-driven decision support system. By creating a comprehensive 56-cell matrix that tracks every combination of RSI states and multi-indicator conditions, this indicator reveals which market patterns have historically led to profitable outcomes and which have not.
At its core, the indicator continuously monitors seven distinct RSI states (ranging from Extreme Oversold to Extreme Overbought) and eight unique indicator combinations (MACD direction, volume levels, and price momentum). For each of these 56 possible market states, the system calculates average forward returns, win rates, and occurrence counts based on your configurable lookback period. The result is a color-coded probability matrix that shows you exactly where you stand in the historical performance landscape.
The standout feature is the Current State Panel, which provides instant clarity on your active market conditions. This panel displays signal strength classifications (from Strong Bullish to Strong Bearish), the average return percentage for similar past occurrences, an estimated win rate using Bayesian smoothing to prevent small-sample distortions, and a confidence level indicator that warns you when insufficient data exists for reliable conclusions.

📖Usage Guidelines
RSI Period
Default: 14
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Controls the lookback period for RSI momentum calculation. Standard 14-period provides widely-recognized overbought/oversold levels. Decrease for faster, more sensitive RSI reactions suitable for scalping. Increase (21, 28) for smoother, longer-term momentum assessment in swing trading. Changes affect how quickly the indicator moves between the 7 RSI state classifications.
MACD Fast Length
Default: 12
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Sets the faster exponential moving average for MACD calculation. Standard 12-period setting works well for daily charts and captures short-term momentum shifts. Decreasing creates more responsive MACD crossovers but increases false signals. Increasing smooths out noise but delays signal generation, affecting the bullish/bearish indicator state classification.
MACD Slow Length
Default: 26
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Defines the slower exponential moving average for MACD calculation. Traditional 26-period setting balances trend identification with responsiveness. Must be greater than Fast Length. Wider spread between fast and slow increases MACD sensitivity to trend changes, impacting the frequency of indicator state transitions in the matrix.
MACD Signal Length
Default: 9
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Smoothing period for the MACD signal line that triggers bullish/bearish state changes. Standard 9-period provides reliable crossover signals. Shorter values create more frequent state changes and earlier signals but with more whipsaws. Longer values produce more confirmed, stable signals but with increased lag in detecting momentum shifts.
Volume MA Period
Default: 20
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Lookback period for volume moving average used to classify volume as “high” or “low” in indicator state combinations. 20-period default captures typical monthly trading patterns. Shorter periods (10-15) make volume classification more reactive to recent spikes. Longer periods (30-50) require more sustained volume changes to trigger state classification shifts.
Statistics Lookback Period
Default: 200
Range: 50 to 500
Description: Number of historical bars used to calculate matrix statistics. 200 bars provides substantial data for reliable patterns while remaining responsive to regime changes. Lower values (50-100) emphasize recent market behavior and adapt quickly but may produce volatile statistics. Higher values (300-500) capture long-term patterns with stable statistics but slower adaptation to changing market dynamics.
Forward Performance Bars
Default: 5
Range: 1 to 20
Description: Number of bars ahead used to calculate forward returns from each historical state occurrence. 5-bar default suits intraday to short-term swing trading (5 hours on hourly charts, 1 week on daily charts). Lower values (1-3) target short-term momentum trades. Higher values (10-20) align with position trading and longer-term pattern exploitation.
Color Intensity Sensitivity
Default: 2.0
Range: 0.5 to 5.0, step 0.5
Description: Amplifies or dampens the color intensity response to average return magnitudes in the matrix heat map. 2.0 default provides balanced visual emphasis. Lower values (0.5-1.0) create subtle coloring requiring larger returns for full saturation, useful for volatile instruments. Higher values (3.0-5.0) produce vivid colors from smaller returns, highlighting subtle edges in range-bound markets.
Minimum Occurrences for Coloring
Default: 3
Range: 1 to 10
Description: Required minimum sample size before applying color-coded performance to matrix cells. Cells with fewer occurrences display gray “insufficient data” warning. 3-occurrence default filters out rare patterns. Lower threshold (1-2) shows more data but includes unreliable single-event statistics. Higher thresholds (5-10) ensure only well-established patterns receive visual emphasis.
Table Position
Default: top_right
Options: top_left, top_right, bottom_left, bottom_right
Description: Screen location for the 56-cell statistics matrix table. Position to avoid overlapping critical price action or other indicators on your chart. Consider chart orientation and candlestick density when selecting optimal placement.
Show Current State Panel
Default: true
Options: true, false
Description: Toggle visibility of the dedicated current state information panel. When enabled, displays signal strength, RSI value, indicator status, average return, estimated win rate, and confidence level for active market conditions. Disable to declutter charts when only the matrix table is needed.
Info Panel Position
Default: bottom_left
Options: top_left, top_right, bottom_left, bottom_right
Description: Screen location for the current state information panel (when enabled). Position independently from statistics matrix to optimize chart real estate. Typically placed opposite the matrix table for balanced visual layout.
Win Rate Smoothing Strength
Default: 5
Range: 1 to 20
Description: Controls Bayesian prior weighting for estimated win rate calculations. Acts as virtual sample size assuming 50% win rate baseline. Default 5 provides moderate smoothing preventing extreme win rate estimates from small samples. Lower values (1-3) reduce smoothing effect, allowing win rates to reflect raw data more directly. Higher values (10-20) increase conservatism, pulling win rate estimates toward 50% until substantial evidence accumulates.
✅Best Use Cases
Pattern-based discretionary trading where you want historical confirmation before entering setups that “look good” based on current technical alignment
Swing trading with holding periods matching your forward performance bar setting, using high-confidence bullish cells as entry filters
Risk assessment and position sizing, allocating larger size to trades originating from cells with strong positive average returns and high estimated win rates
Market regime identification by observing which RSI states and indicator combinations are currently producing the most reliable historical patterns
Backtesting validation by comparing your manual strategy signals against the historical performance of the corresponding matrix cells
Educational tool for developing intuition about which technical condition combinations have actually worked versus those that feel right but lack historical evidence
⚠️Limitations
Historical patterns do not guarantee future performance, especially during unprecedented market events or regime changes not represented in the lookback period
Small sample sizes (low occurrence counts) produce unreliable statistics despite Bayesian smoothing, requiring caution when acting on low-confidence cells
Matrix statistics lag behind rapidly changing market conditions, as the lookback period must accumulate new state occurrences before updating performance data
Forward return calculations use fixed bar periods that may not align with actual trade exit timing, support/resistance levels, or volatility-adjusted profit targets
💡What Makes This Unique
Multi-Dimensional State Space: Unlike single-indicator tools, simultaneously tracks 56 distinct market condition combinations providing granular pattern resolution unavailable in traditional technical analysis
Bayesian Statistical Rigor: Implements proper probabilistic smoothing to prevent overconfidence from limited data, a critical feature missing from most pattern recognition tools
Real-Time Contextual Feedback: The “NOW” marker and dedicated info panel instantly connect current market conditions to their historical performance profile, eliminating guesswork
Transparent Occurrence Counts: Displays sample sizes directly in each cell, allowing traders to judge statistical reliability themselves rather than hiding data quality issues
Fully Customizable Analysis Window: Complete control over lookback depth and forward return horizons lets traders align the tool precisely with their trading timeframe and strategy requirements
🔬How It Works
1. State Classification and Encoding
Each bar’s RSI value is evaluated and assigned to one of 7 discrete states based on threshold levels (0: <20, 1: 20-30, 2: 30-40, 3: 40-60, 4: 60-70, 5: 70-80, 6: >80)
Simultaneously, three binary conditions are evaluated: MACD line position relative to signal line, current volume relative to its moving average, and current close relative to previous close
These three binary conditions are combined into a single indicator state integer (0-7) using binary encoding, creating 8 possible indicator combinations
The RSI state and indicator state are stored together, defining one of 56 possible market condition cells in the matrix
2. Historical Data Accumulation
As each bar completes, the current state classification, closing price, and bar index are stored in rolling arrays maintained at the size specified by the lookback period
When the arrays reach capacity, the oldest data point is removed and the newest added, creating a sliding historical window
This continuous process builds a comprehensive database of past market conditions and their subsequent price movements
3. Forward Return Calculation and Statistics Update
On each bar, the indicator looks back through the stored historical data to find bars where sufficient forward bars exist to measure outcomes
For each historical occurrence, the price change from that bar to the bar N periods ahead (where N is the forward performance bars setting) is calculated as a percentage return
This percentage return is added to the cumulative return total for the specific matrix cell corresponding to that historical bar’s state classification
Occurrence counts are incremented, and wins are tallied for positive returns, building comprehensive statistics for each of the 56 cells
The Bayesian smoothing formula combines these raw statistics with prior assumptions (neutral 50% win rate) weighted by the smoothing strength parameter to produce estimated win rates that remain stable even with small samples
💡Note:
The Historical Matrix Analyzer is designed as a decision support tool, not a standalone trading system. Best results come from using it to validate discretionary trade ideas or filter systematic strategy signals. Always combine matrix insights with proper risk management, position sizing rules, and awareness of broader market context. The estimated win rate feature uses Bayesian statistics specifically to prevent false confidence from limited data, but no amount of smoothing can create reliable predictions from fundamentally insufficient sample sizes. Focus on high-confidence cells (green-colored confidence indicators) with occurrence counts well above your minimum threshold for the most actionable insights.
Fair Value Lead-Lag Model [BackQuant]Fair Value Lead-Lag Model
A cross-asset model that estimates where price "should" be relative to a chosen reference series, then tracks the deviation as a normalized oscillator. It helps you answer two questions: 1) is the asset rich or cheap vs its driver, and 2) is the driver leading or lagging price over the next N bars.
Concept in one paragraph
Many assets co-move with a macro or sector driver. Think BTC vs DXY, gold vs real yields, a stock vs its sector ETF. This tool builds a rolling fair value of the charted asset from a reference series and shows how far price is above or below that fair value in standard deviation units. You can shift the reference forward or backward to test who leads whom, then use the deviation and its bands to structure mean-reversion or trend-following ideas.
What the model does
Reference mapping : Pulls a reference symbol at a chosen timeframe, with an optional lead or lag in bars to test causality.
Fair value engine : Converts the reference into a synthetic fair value of the chart using one of four methods:
Ratio : price/ref with a rolling average ratio. Good when the relationship is proportional.
Spread : price minus ref with a rolling average spread. Good when the relationship is additive.
Z-Score : normalizes both series, aligns on standardized units, then re-projects to price space. Good when scale drifts.
Beta-Adjusted : rolling regression style. Uses covariance and variance to compute beta, then builds a fair value = mean(price) + beta * (ref − mean(ref)).
Deviation and bands : Computes a z-scored deviation of price vs fair value and plots sigma bands (±1, ±2, ±3) around the fair value line on the chart.
Correlation context : Shows rolling correlation so you can judge if deviations are meaningful or just noise when co-movement is weak.
Visuals :
Fair value line on price chart with sigma envelopes.
Deviation as a column oscillator and optional line.
Threshold shading beyond user-set upper and lower levels.
Summary table with reference, deviation, status, correlation, and method.
Why this is useful
Mean reversion framework : When correlation is healthy and deviation stretches beyond your sigma threshold, probability favors reversion toward fair value. This is classic pairs logic adapted to a driver and a target.
Trend confirmation : If price rides the fair value line and deviation stays modest while correlation is positive, it supports trend persistence. Pullbacks to negative deviation in an uptrend can be buyable.
Lead-lag discovery : Shift the reference forward by +N bars. If correlation improves, the reference tends to lead. Shift backward for the reverse. Use the best setting for planning early entries or hedges.
Regime detection : Large persistent deviations with falling correlation hint at regime change. The relationship you relied on may be breaking down, so reduce confidence or switch methods.
How to use it step by step
Pick a sensible reference : Choose a macro, index, currency, or sector driver that logically explains the asset’s moves. Example: gold with DXY, a semiconductor stock with SOXX.
Test lead-lag : Nudge Lead/Lag Periods to small positive values like +1 to +5 to see if the reference leads. If correlation improves, keep that offset. If correlation worsens, try a small negative value or zero.
Select a method :
Start with Beta-Adjusted when the relationship is approximately linear with drift.
Use Ratio if the assets usually move in proportional terms.
Use Spread when they trade around a level difference.
Use Z-Score when scales wander or volatility regimes shift.
Tune windows :
Rolling Window controls how quickly fair value adapts. Shorter equals faster but noisier.
Normalization Period controls how deviations are standardized. Longer equals stabler sigma sizing.
Correlation Length controls how co-movement is measured. Keep it near the fair value window.
Trade the edges :
Mean reversion idea : Wait for deviation beyond your Upper or Lower Threshold with positive correlation. Fade back toward fair value. Exit at the fair value line or the next inner sigma band.
Trend idea : In an uptrend, buy pullbacks when deviation dips negative but correlation remains healthy. In a downtrend, sell bounces when deviation spikes positive.
Read the table : Deviation shows how many sigmas you are from fair value. Status tells you overvalued or undervalued. Correlation color hints confidence. Method tells you the projection style used.
Reading the display
Fair value line on price chart: the model’s estimate of where price should trade given the reference, updated each bar.
Sigma bands around fair value: a quick sense of residual volatility. Reversions often target inner bands first.
Deviation oscillator : above zero means rich vs fair value, below zero means cheap. Color bins intensify with distance.
Correlation line (optional): scale is folded to match thresholds. Higher values increase trust in deviations.
Parameter tips
Start with Rolling Window 20 to 30, Normalization Period 100, Correlation Length 50.
Upper and Lower Threshold at ±2.0 are classic. Tighten to ±1.5 for more signals or widen to ±2.5 to focus on outliers.
When correlation drifts below about 0.3, treat deviations with caution. Consider switching method or reference.
If the fair value line whipsaws, increase Rolling Window or move to Beta-Adjusted which tends to be smoother.
Playbook examples
Pairs-style reversion : Asset is +2.3 sigma rich vs reference, correlation 0.65, trend flat. Short the deviation back toward fair value. Cover near the fair value line or +1 sigma.
Pro-trend pullback : Uptrend with correlation 0.7. Deviation dips to −1.2 sigma while price sits near the −1 sigma band. Buy the dip, target the fair value line, trail if the line is rising.
Lead-lag timing : Reference leads by +3 bars with improved correlation. Use reference swings as early cues to anticipate deviation turns on the target.
Caveats
The model assumes a stable relationship over the chosen windows. Structural breaks, policy shocks, and index rebalances can invalidate recent history.
Correlation is descriptive, not causal. A strong correlation does not guarantee future convergence.
Do not force trades when the reference has low liquidity or mismatched hours. Use a reference timeframe that captures real overlap.
Bottom line
This tool turns a loose cross-asset intuition into a quantified, visual fair value map. It gives you a consistent way to find rich or cheap conditions, time mean-reversion toward a statistically grounded target, and confirm or fade trends when the driver agrees.
Hyper Strength Index | QuantLapse🧠 Hyper Strength Index (HSI) | QuantLapse
Overview:
The Hyper Strength Index (HSI) is a composite momentum oscillator designed to unify multiple strength measures into a single, adaptive framework. It combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO), Money Flow Index (MFI), and Stochastic RSI to deliver a refined, multidimensional view of market momentum and overbought/oversold conditions.
Unlike traditional oscillators that rely on a single formula, the HSI averages four distinct momentum perspectives — price velocity, directional conviction, volume participation, and stochastic behavior — offering traders a more balanced and noise-resistant reading of market strength.
⚙️ Calculation Logic:
The Hyper Strength Index is computed as the normalized average of:
📈 RSI — classic measure of relative momentum.
💪 CMO — captures directional bias and intensity of moves.
💵 MFI — integrates volume and money flow pressure.
🔄 Stochastic RSI (K-line) — identifies momentum extremes and short-term turning points.
This fusion creates a smoother, more comprehensive signal, mitigating the weaknesses of any single oscillator.
🎯 Interpretation:
Overbought Zone (Default: > 75):
Indicates potential exhaustion of bullish momentum — a cooling phase or reversal may follow.
Oversold Zone (Default: < 7):
Suggests bearish exhaustion — a rebound or accumulation phase may emerge.
Neutral Zone (Between 7 and 75):
Represents balanced market conditions or trend continuation phases.
Visual cues highlight key conditions:
🔺 Red Highlights — Overbought regions or downward inflection points.
🔻 Green Highlights — Oversold regions or upward inflection points.
Neutral zones are shaded with subtle gray backgrounds for clarity.
💡 Key Features:
🔹 Multi-factor strength analysis (RSI + CMO + MFI + StochRSI).
🔹 Adaptive overbought/oversold detection.
🔹 Visual alerts via colored backgrounds and bar markers.
🔹 Customizable smoothing and length parameters for fine-tuning sensitivity.
🔹 Intuitive visualization ideal for both short-term scalping and swing trading setups.
🧭 Usage Notes:
Works best as a momentum confirmation tool — pair with trend filters like EMA, SuperTrend, or ADX.
In trending markets, use crossovers from extreme zones as potential continuation or exhaustion signals.
In ranging markets, exploit overbought/oversold reversals for high-probability mean reversion trades.
📘 Summary:
The Hyper Strength Index | QuantLapse distills multiple dimensions of market strength into a single, cohesive oscillator. By merging price, volume, and directional momentum, it provides traders with a more robust, responsive, and context-aware perspective on market dynamics — a next-generation evolution beyond the limitations of RSI or CMO alone.

PulseRPO Zero-Lag BandsPulseRPO is a momentum and volatility timing suite built on a zero-lag Relative Price Oscillator. It pairs an RPO (fast vs slow MA spread, in %) with adaptive volatility envelopes that tighten or widen as conditions change, so you can spot true momentum bursts, exhaustion and “quiet-before-the-move” squeezes—without the usual MA lag.
What it shows
Zero-Lag RPO: Choose EMA, SMA, WMA, RMA, HMA or ZLEMA for the base, then apply ZLEMA/DEMA/TEMA/HMA zero-lag smoothing to cut delay.
Adaptive Bands: StdDev, ATR, Range or Hybrid volatility; bands auto-tighten in high vol and widen in quiet regimes.
Dynamic OB/OS: Levels scale with current regime so extremes mean something even as volatility shifts.
Signal & Histogram: Classic signal cross plus histogram for quick read of acceleration vs deceleration.
Squeeze Paint: Subtle background highlight when band width compresses below its average.
Divergences & Triggers: Optional bullish/bearish divergence tags, plus band-cross and signal-cross alerts out of the box.
How to use it (general guide)
Momentum entries: Look for RPO crossing up its signal from below or snapping out of a squeeze; extra weight if it also re-enters from below the lower band.
Trend continuation: RPO riding outside the upper (or lower) band with rising histogram = power move; trail risk on pullbacks to the signal line.
Exhaustion / fades: Taps beyond dynamic OB/OS or band re-entries can mark mean-revert windows—confirm with price/volume.
Risk filter: During squeeze, size down and prepare for expansion; after expansion, respect extremes.
Tweak the MA type, band method and zero-lag strength to match your timeframe. PulseRPO is designed to be a self-contained read: regime → setup → trigger → alert.
Tristan's W%R StrategyOverview:
This strategy uses the raw Williams %R oscillator to automatically generate buy and sell signals based on overbought and oversold levels. It is session-aware, allowing you to restrict trades to specific market hours (New York, London, or Asia).
Key Features:
Buy Signal: Fires whenever the raw Williams %R is at or below the oversold level (default −100).
Sell Signal: Fires whenever the raw Williams %R is at or above the overbought level (default 0).
Session Filtering: Only triggers trades during the selected session (All, New York, London, or Asia).
Pyramiding: Allows multiple trades to stack, so every qualifying signal results in a new trade.
Alerts: Optional alerts for automation via webhook or broker integration.
Session Highlight: Background shading indicates when the selected session is active.
How to Use:
Set the Williams %R length, overbought, and oversold levels to match your trading style.
Select the session you want the strategy to be active in (New York, London, or Asia).
Enable alerts if you plan to automate trades with an API.
Add the strategy to your chart. It will execute trades automatically whenever the raw %R meets the configured thresholds during the selected session.
Adjust pyramiding if you want to limit the number of stacked trades per session.
Note:
This script uses the raw W%R signal vs the smoothed one because I found it to be more accurate for automated trading.
Every qualifying signal results in a trade, even if positions are already open.

Luxy Adaptive MA Cloud - Trend Strength & Signal Tracker V2Luxy Adaptive MA Cloud - Professional Trend Strength & Signal Tracker
Next-generation moving average cloud indicator combining ultra-smooth gradient visualization with intelligent momentum detection. Built for traders who demand clarity, precision, and actionable insights.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
WHAT MAKES THIS INDICATOR SPECIAL?
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Unlike traditional MA indicators that show static lines, Luxy Adaptive MA Cloud creates a living, breathing visualization of market momentum. Here's what sets it apart:
Exponential Gradient Technology
This isn't just a simple fill between two lines. It's a professionally engineered gradient system with 26 precision layers using exponential density distribution. The result? An organic, cloud-like appearance where the center is dramatically darker (15% transparency - where crossovers and price action occur), while edges fade gracefully (75% transparency). Think of it as a visual "heat map" of trend strength.
Dynamic Momentum Intelligence
Most MA clouds only show structure (which MA is on top). This indicator shows momentum strength in real-time through four intelligent states:
- 🟢 Bright Green = Explosive bullish momentum (both MAs rising strongly)
- 🔵 Blue = Weakening bullish (structure intact, but momentum fading)
- 🟠 Orange = Caution zone (bearish structure forming, weak momentum)
- 🔴 Deep Red = Strong bearish momentum (both MAs falling)
The cloud literally tells you when trends are accelerating or losing steam.
Conditional Performance Architecture
Every calculation is optimized for speed. Disable a feature? It stops calculating entirely—not just hidden, but not computed . The 26-layer gradient only renders when enabled. Toggle signals off? Those crossover checks don't run. This makes it one of the most efficient cloud indicators available, even with its advanced visual system.
Zero Repaint Guarantee
All signals and momentum states are based on confirmed bar data only . What you see in historical data is exactly what you would have seen trading live. No lookahead bias. No repainting tricks. No signals that "magically" appear perfect in hindsight. If a signal shows in history, it would have triggered in real-time at that exact moment.
Educational by Design
Every single input includes comprehensive tooltips with:
- Clear explanations of what each parameter does
- Practical examples of when to use different settings
- Recommended configurations for scalping, day trading, and swing trading
- Real-world trading impact ("This affects entry timing" vs "This is visual only")
You're not just getting an indicator—you're learning how to use it effectively .

THE GRADIENT CLOUD - TECHNICAL DETAILS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Architecture:
26 precision layers for silk-smooth transitions
Exponential density curve - layers packed tightly near center (where crossovers happen), spread wider at edges
75%-15% transparency range - center is highly opaque (15%), edges fade gracefully (75%)
V-Gradient design - emphasizes the action zone between Fast and Medium MAs
The Four Momentum States:
🟢 GREEN - Strong Bullish
Fast MA above Medium MA
Both MAs rising with momentum > 0.02%
Action: Enter/hold LONG positions, strong uptrend confirmed
🔵 BLUE - Weak Bullish
Fast MA above Medium MA
Weak or flat momentum
Action: Caution - bullish structure but losing strength, consider trailing stops
🟠 ORANGE - Weak Bearish
Medium MA above Fast MA
Weak or flat momentum
Action: Warning - bearish structure developing, consider exits
🔴 RED - Strong Bearish
Medium MA above Fast MA
Both MAs falling with momentum < -0.02%
Action: Enter/hold SHORT positions, strong downtrend confirmed
Smooth Transitions: The momentum score is smoothed using an 8-bar EMA to eliminate noise and prevent whipsaws. You see the true trend , not every minor fluctuation.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
FLEXIBLE MOVING AVERAGE SYSTEM
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Three Customizable MAs:
Fast MA (default: EMA 10) - Reacts quickly to price changes, defines short-term momentum
Medium MA (default: EMA 20) - Balances responsiveness with stability, core trend reference
Slow MA (default: SMA 200, optional) - Long-term trend filter, major support/resistance
Six MA Types Available:
EMA - Exponential; faster response, ideal for momentum and day trading
SMA - Simple; smooth and stable, best for swing trading and trend following
WMA - Weighted; middle ground between EMA and SMA
VWMA - Volume-weighted; reflects market participation, useful for liquid markets
RMA - Wilder's smoothing; used in RSI/ADX, excellent for trend filters
HMA - Hull; extremely responsive with minimal lag, aggressive option
Recommended Settings by Trading Style:
Scalping (1m-5m):
Fast: EMA(5-8)
Medium: EMA(10-15)
Slow: Not needed or EMA(50)
Day Trading (5m-1h):
Fast: EMA(10-12)
Medium: EMA(20-21)
Slow: SMA(200) for bias
Swing Trading (4h-1D):
Fast: EMA(10-20)
Medium: EMA(34-50)
Slow: SMA(200)
Pro Tip: Start with Fast < Medium < Slow lengths. The gradient works best when there's clear separation between Fast and Medium MAs.

HOW TO USE - PRACTICAL TRADING GUIDE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
STRATEGY 1: Trend Following
Identify trend : Wait for GREEN (bullish) or RED (bearish) cloud
Enter on signal : Golden Cross in GREEN cloud = LONG, Death Cross in RED cloud = SHORT
Hold position : While cloud maintains color
Exit signals :
• Cloud turns ORANGE/BLUE = momentum weakening, tighten stops
• Opposite crossover = close position
• Cloud turns opposite color = full reversal
STRATEGY 2: Pullback Entries
Confirm trend : GREEN cloud established (bullish bias)
Wait for pullback : Price touches or crosses below Fast MA
Enter when : Price rebounds back above Fast MA with cloud still GREEN
Stop loss : Below Medium MA or recent swing low
Target : Previous high or when cloud weakens
STRATEGY 3: Momentum Confirmation
Your setup triggers : (e.g., chart pattern, support/resistance)
Check cloud color :
• GREEN = proceed with LONG
• RED = proceed with SHORT
• BLUE/ORANGE = skip or reduce size
Use gradient as confluence : Not as primary signal, but as momentum filter
Risk Management Tips:
Never enter against the cloud color (don't LONG in RED cloud)
Reduce position size during BLUE/ORANGE (transition periods)
Place stops beyond Medium MA for swing trades
Use Slow MA (200) as final trend filter - don't SHORT above it in uptrends
