Volatility Regime Classifier | ATRP Percentile ZonesThis indicator helps you understand the current volatility environment of any asset by comparing recent ATR-based values to its historical range.
It defines four regimes:
🔴 Low Volatility: Volatility is decreasing
🟢 Normal: Volatility is increasing but still below average
🟠 High: Volatility is elevated
🟣 Extreme: Volatility is very high compared to recent history
⚙️ How it works
We calculate the Average True Range (ATR) as a percentage of price (ATRP), then compare a short-term ATR to a longer-term one. Their difference shows whether volatility is picking up or slowing down.
To make the signal more adaptive, we look at the distribution of recent volatility over a rolling window. We compute the 50th and 70th percentiles of that history to set dynamic thresholds.
About distribution & percentiles
Volatility in financial markets doesn't follow a normal (Gaussian) distribution, it's often skewed, with sudden spikes and fat tails. That means fixed thresholds (like "ATR > 20") can be misleading or irrelevant across assets and timeframes.
Using percentiles solves this:
The 50th percentile marks the middle of the recent volatility range.
The 70th percentile captures a zone where volatility is unusually high, but not too rare, which keeps the signal usable and not overly sensitive.
These levels offer a balance:
⚖️ not too reactive, not too slow — just enough to highlight meaningful shifts.

Dual-Phase Trend Regime Oscillator (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Trend Regime: Dual-Phase Oscillator (Zeiierman) is a volatility-sensitive trend classification tool that dynamically switches between two oscillators, one optimized for low volatility, the other for high volatility.
By analyzing standard deviation-based volatility states and applying correlation-derived oscillators, this indicator reveals not only whether the market is trending but also what kind of trend regime it is in —Bullish or Bearish —and how that regime reacts to market volatility.
█ Its Uniqueness
Most trend indicators assume a static market environment; they don't adjust their logic when the underlying volatility shifts. That often leads to false signals in choppy conditions or late entries in trending phases.
Trend Regime: Dual-Phase Oscillator solves this by introducing volatility-aware adaptability. It switches between a slow, stable oscillator in calm markets and a fast, reactive oscillator in volatile ones, ensuring the right sensitivity at the right time.
█ How It Works
⚪ Volatility State Engine
Calculates returns-based volatility using standard deviation of price change
Smooths the current volatility with a moving average
Builds a volatility history window and performs median clustering to determine typical "Low" and "High" volatility zones
Dynamically assigns the chart to one of two internal volatility regimes: Low or High
⚪ Dual Oscillators
In Low Volatility, it uses a Slow Trend Oscillator (longer lookback, smoother)
In High Volatility, it switches to a Fast Trend Oscillator (shorter lookback, responsive)
Both oscillators use price-time correlation as a measure of directional strength
The output is normalized between 0 and 1, allowing for consistent interpretation
⚪ Trend Regime Classification
The active oscillator is compared to a neutral threshold (0.5)
If above: Bullish Regime, if below: Bearish Regime, else: Neutral
The background and markers update to reflect regime changes visually
Triangle markers highlight bullish/bearish regime shifts
█ How to Use
⚪ Identify Current Trend Regime
Use the background color and chart table to immediately recognize whether the market is trending up or down.
⚪ Trade Regime Shifts
Use triangle markers (▲ / ▼) to spot fresh regime entries, which are ideal for confirming breakouts within trends.
⚪ Pullback Trading
Look for pullbacks when the trend is in a stable condition and the slow oscillator remains consistently near the upper or lower threshold. Watch for moments when the fast oscillator retraces back toward the midline, or slightly above/below it — this often signals a potential pullback entry in the direction of the prevailing trend.
█ Settings Explained
Length (Slow Trend Oscillator) – Used in calm conditions. Longer = smoother signals
Length (Fast Trend Oscillator) – Used in volatile conditions. Shorter = more responsive
Volatility Refit Interval – Controls how often the system recalculates Low/High volatility levels
Current Volatility Period – Lookback used for immediate volatility measurement
Volatility Smoothing Length – Applies an SMA to the raw volatility to reduce noise

ICT Macro Zone Boxes w/ Individual H/L Tracking v3.1ICT Macro Zones (Grey Box Version
This indicator dynamically highlights key intraday time-based macro sessions using a clean, minimalistic grey box overlay, helping traders align with institutional trading cycles. Inspired by ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts, it tracks real-time highs and lows for each session and optionally extends the zone box after the session ends — making it a precision tool for intraday setups, order flow analysis, and macro-level liquidity sweeps.
### 🔍 **What It Does**
- Plots **six predefined macro sessions** used in Smart Money Concepts:
- AM Macro (09:50–10:10)
- London Close (10:50–11:10)
- Lunch Macro (11:30–13:30)
- PM Macro (14:50–15:10)
- London SB (03:00–04:00)
- PM SB (15:00–16:00)
- Each zone:
- **Tracks high and low dynamically** throughout the session.
- **Draws a consistent grey shaded box** to visualize price boundaries.
- **Displays a label** at the first bar of the session (optional).
- **Optionally extends** the box to the right after the session closes.
### 🧠 **How It Works**
- Uses Pine Script arrays to define each session’s time window, label, and color.
- Detects session entry using `time()` within a New York timezone context.
- High/Low values are updated per bar inside the session window.
- Once a session ends, the box is optionally closed and fixed in place.
- All visual zones use a standardized grey tone for clarity and consistency across charts.
### 🛠️ **Settings**
- **Shade Zone High→Low:** Enable/disable the grey macro box.
- **Extend Box After Session:** Keep the zone visible after it ends.
- **Show Entry Label:** Display a label at the start of each session.
### 🎯 **Why This Script is Unique**
Unlike basic session markers or colored backgrounds, this tool:
- Focuses on **macro moments of liquidity and reversal**, not just open/close times.
- Uses **per-session logic** to individually track price behavior inside key time windows.
- Supports **real-time high/low tracking and clean zone drawing**, ideal for Smart Money and ICT-style strategies.

Major Session Highs/LowsThis indicator creates horizontal lines at major session high/lows (US, London, and Asian). The script updates the lines automatically, on session close.
For instance, when viewing during the US session, after the London overlap, horizontal lines will be displayed at the following levels.
The high/low of the most recent London session.
The high/low of the most recent Asian session.
The high/low of the last full US session, i.e. the session of the day prior.
When the current US session closes, the US levels automatically update.
Market Breadth Ratios OverlayThis overlay indicator displays the up/down volume breadth ratio for both the NYSE and NASDAQ directly on your chart.
Ratios are calculated using volume data from:
USI:UVOL, USI:DVOL (NYSE)
USI:UVOLQ, USI:DVOLQ (NASDAQ)
A green label indicates more up volume than down volume (bullish breadth).
A red label indicates more down volume than up volume (bearish breadth).
Labels update every 10 bars and are anchored to the candle’s high (NYSE) and low (NASDAQ).
Negative ratios are inverted and displayed as -D:U to maintain a consistent “X:1” format.
Use this tool to assess whether institutional buying pressure is broad-based across exchanges — a valuable layer of confirmation for directional bias.
Tremor Tracker [theUltimator5]Tremor Tracker is a volatility monitoring tool that visualizes the "tremors" of price action by measuring and analyzing the average volatility of the current trading range, working on any timeframe. This indicator is designed to help traders detect when the market is calm, when volatility is building, and when it enters a potentially unstable or explosive state by using a lookback period to determine the average volatility and highlights outliers.
🔍 What It Does
Calculates bar-level volatility as the percentage difference between the high and low of each candle.
Applies a user-selected moving average (SMA, EMA, or WMA) to smooth out short-term noise and highlight trends in volatility.
Compares current volatility to its long-term average over a configurable lookback period.
Dynamically colors each volatility bar based on how extreme it is relative to historical behavior:
🟢 Lime — Low volatility (subdued, ranging conditions)
🟡 Yellow — Moderate or building volatility
🟣 Fuchsia — Elevated or explosive volatility
⚙️ Customizable Settings
Low Volatility Limit and High Volatility Limit: Define the thresholds for color changes based on volatility's ratio to its average.
Volatility MA Length: Adjust the smoothing period for the volatility moving average.
Average Volatility Lookback: Set how many bars are used to calculate the long-term average.
MA Type: Choose between SMA, EMA, or WMA for smoothing.
Show Volatility MA Line?: Toggle the display of the smoothed volatility trendline.
Show Raw Volatility Bars?: Toggle the display of raw per-bar volatility with dynamic coloring.
🧠 Use Cases
Identify breakout conditions: When volatility spikes above average, it may signal the onset of a new trend or a news-driven breakout.
Avoid chop zones: Prolonged periods of low volatility often precede sharp moves — a classic “calm before the storm” setup.
Timing reversion trades: Detect overextended conditions when volatility is well above historical norms.
Adapt strategies by volatility regime: Use color feedback to adjust risk, position sizing, or strategy selection based on real-time conditions.
📌 Notes
Volatility is expressed as a percentage, making this indicator suitable for use across different timeframes and asset classes.
The tool is designed to be visually intuitive, so traders can quickly spot evolving volatility states without diving into raw numbers.

Golden Setup V1Golden Setup V1 is an overlay indicator that automates Tony Rago’s “Golden Setup” price-level framework. It divides the chart into fixed “blockSize” intervals (default 100 points) and plots a series of key horizontal levels within each block—levels at 00, 12, 26, 33, 50, 62, 77 and 88 offsets. These levels act as dynamic support and resistance grids that roll up or down as price moves between blocks.
Key Features
Customizable Offsets
Define eight offset levels corresponding to Rago’s Golden Setup:
00 (Round Number)
12 (Target 12)
26 (First “Golden” level)
33 (Target 33)
50 (Mid-block pivot)
62 (Target 62)
77 (Second “Golden” level)
88 (Target 88)
Multi-Block Coverage
Choose how many blocks above and below the current 100-point block you wish to display, so you always have levels drawn for the surrounding price range.
Golden-Only Filter
A handy toggle lets you show only the two “Golden” offsets (26 & 77), which many traders prioritize for high-probability bounce or breakout areas.
Dynamic Nearest-Level Label
Highlights the closest Golden Setup level (to the right edge of the chart) with a movable label, so you always know which level price is approaching.
Full Styling Control
Customize line colors, widths, block size, label fonts and opacity to suit your charting style.
How It Works
Block Calculation
On each bar, the indicator computes the “current block” by flooring (close / blockSize) and multiplying back by blockSize.
Level Offsets
It adds each of the eight user-defined offsets to that block base (and, if price has moved below the lowest offset, shifts the block down one interval).
Drawing
Each level is drawn as a horizontal line extending across the chart for as many blocks above/below as you select.
Nearest-Level Detection
Within the present block, it calculates which of the plotted levels is closest to price and displays that value on the right edge.
Usage Tips
Use the Golden-Only filter to declutter and focus solely on the 26 & 77 levels, which often act as strong intra-block pivot points.
Combine with volume or momentum indicators to confirm bounces at these levels.
Adjust blockSize (e.g. 50 or 200) if you wish to work in smaller or larger price increments.

Binary Strategy (with SMI logic)🧠 How to Use:
Chart Timeframe: 5-minute
Setup: Wait for an arrow to appear
Green arrow = BUY a 20-min binary in uptrend with positive momentum
Red arrow = SELL a 20-min binary in downtrend with negative momentum
SMI Logic: Entry only when SMI crosses its signal line in the trend direction and above/below zero
Works for Nadex 20-Minute $&P 500 Binary
If long at 75 get out at 50, or if short at 25 get out at 50. This allow you to be trading at a 1:1 ratio. (Approx.)
Entropy Bands (TechnoBlooms)Entropy Bands — A New Era of Volatility and Trend Analysis
Entropy Bands is our next indicator as a part of the Quantum Price Theory (QPT) Series of indicators.
🧠 Overview
Entropy Bands are an advanced volatility-based indicator that reimagines traditional banded systems like Bollinger Bands.
Built on entropy theory, adaptive moving averages, and dynamic volatility measurement, Entropy Bands provide deeper insights into market randomness, trend strength, and breakout potential.
Instead of only relying on price deviation (like Bollinger Bands), Entropy Bands integrate chaos theory principles to create smarter, more responsive dynamic bands that adapt to real market behavior.
🚀Why is Entropy Bands Different — and Better
Dynamic Band Width : Adjusts using both entropy and ATR, creating smarter expansion/contraction.
Multi-Moving Average Core : Choose between SMA, EMA, or WMA for optimal centerline behavior.
Noise and Breakout Filtering : Filters fake breakouts by analyzing candle body size and entropy conditions.
Visual Clarity : Background and candle coloring highlight chaotic/noisy zones, trend zones, and breakout moments.
Entropy Bands don't just react to price — they analyze the underlying market behavior, offering superior decision-making signals.
📚 Watch Band Behavior:
Bands expand during volatility spikes or chaotic conditions.
Bands contract during low volatility or tight consolidation zones.
📚 Analyze Candle Coloring:
Green = Bullish breakout (closing above upper band).
Pink = Bearish breakout (closing below lower band).
Gray = Inside bands (neutral/random noise).
✨ Key Features of Entropy Bands:
Entropy-Based Band Width Calculation: A scientific edge over pure price deviation methods.
Dynamic Background Coloring: Highlights high entropy areas where randomness dominates.
Candle Breakout Coloring: Easy-to-spot trend breakouts and strength moves.
Multi-MA Flexibility: Adapt the bands’ core to trending, ranging, or volatile markets.
Body Size Filter: Protects against fake breakouts by requiring meaningful candle body moves.

DETAILED SIGNAL LOGIC
Trend Determination:
The script determines the trend direction by comparing leading_line1 and leading_line2.
If leading_line1 is above leading_line2, the trend is considered bullish (isBullish). Otherwise, it's bearish (isBearish).
Signal Conditions:
Long Entry (LE): Triggered when the trend turns bullish from bearish.
Short Entry (SE): Triggered when the trend turns bearish from bullish.
Exit Long (XL): Triggered when the price crosses below leading_line1 during an uptrend.
Re-enter Long (RL): Triggered when the price crosses above leading_line1 during an uptrend.
Exit Short (XS): Triggered when the price crosses above leading_line1 during a downtrend.
Re-enter Short (RS): Triggered when the price crosses below leading_line1 during a downtrend.
Label Styling:
Labels are color-coded for quick identification:
Green for long entries and re-entries.
Red for short entries and exits.
Blue for exiting long positions.
Orange for re-entering short positions.
Tooltips provide additional context for each label.
Alert Configuration:
Alerts are generated for each signal condition, ensuring traders are notified promptly.
Users can set up these alerts within TradingView by creating new alerts and selecting the appropriate conditions.
LIMITATIONS
The indicator may lag behind price action due to its use of moving averages and channel calculations 🕒.
False signals can occur in choppy or sideways markets 🌪️.
Users should always confirm signals with other forms of analysis.
NOTES
Ensure that you have sufficient historical data available for accurate calculations.
Test the indicator thoroughly on demo accounts before applying it to live trading 🔍.
Customize the appearance and parameters as needed to fit your trading strategy.
For better risk management, consider integrating stop-loss and take-profit levels into your trading plan.
To optimize performance, manage old labels by deleting them after a certain period to avoid clutter on the chart.
WaveTrend Matrix (1m-1w) – Custom ThresholdsA visual control panel for momentum exhaustion across ten key time-frames.
—
🧬 DNA
This is a fork of LazyBear’s original WaveTrend Oscillator .
The oscillator logic is 100 % intact; I simply stream the values into a compact table so that day- and swing-traders can see the “bigger picture” at a glance.
📈 What does it do?
Calculates WaveTrend on ten granularities: 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h, 4h, 1d, 1w.
Displays the current oscillator print in a color-coded matrix.
• Red = overbought (≥ high threshold)
• Green = oversold (≤ low threshold)
• Gray = neutral / in-range
All thresholds are user-adjustable.
Built on Pine v5, zero repainting, works on any symbol.
🛠 Parameters
Channel Length – WT “n1” (default 10)
Average Length – WT “n2” (default 21)
Red from – overbought cut-off (default +60)
Green under – oversold cut-off (default –60)
🚀 How to use it
1. Apply the indicator to your chart – no extra setup required.
2. Read the matrix top-down before every entry:
• Multiple deep-green rows → market broadly oversold → watch for longs.
• Multiple deep-red rows → market broadly overbought → watch for shorts or stay flat.
3. Combine with your trend filter (EMA-stack, VWAP, structure) to avoid counter-trend trades.
COT3 - Flip Strength Index - Invincible3This indicator uses the TradingView COT library to visualize institutional positioning and potential sentiment or trend shifts. It compares the long% vs short% of commercial and non-commercial traders for both Pair A and Pair B, helping traders identify trend strength, market overextension, and early reversal signals.
🔷 COT RSI
The COT RSI normalizes the net positioning difference between non-commercial and commercial traders over (N=13, 26, and 52)-week periods. It ranges from 0 to 100, highlighting when sentiment is at bullish or bearish extremes.
COT RSI (N)= ((NC - C)−min)/(max-min) x100
🟡 COT Index
The COT Index tracks where the current non-commercial net position lies within its 1-year and 3-year historical range. It reflects institutional accumulation or distribution phases.
Strength represents the magnitude of that positioning bias, visualized through normalized RSI-style metrics.
COT Index (N)= (NC net)/(max-min) x100
🔁 Flip Detection
Flip refers to the crossovers between long% and short%, indicating a change in directional bias among trader groups. When long positions exceed shorts (or vice versa), it signals a possible market flip in sentiment or trend.
For example, Pair B commercial flip is calculated as:
Long% = (Long/Open Interest)×100
Short% = (Short/Open Interest)×100
Flip = Long%−Short%
A bullish flip occurs when long% overtakes short%, and vice versa for a bearish flip. These flips often precede price trend changes or confirm sentiment breakouts.
Flip captures how far current positioning deviates from historical norms — highlighting periods of institutional overconfidence or exhaustion, often leading to significant market turns.
This combination offers a multi-layered edge for identifying when smart money is flipping direction, and whether that flip has strong conviction or is likely to fade.

CYCLE BY RiotWolftradingDescription of the "CYCLE" Indicator
The "CYCLE" indicator is a custom Pine Script v5 script for TradingView that visualizes cyclic patterns in price action, dividing the trading day into specific sessions and 90-minute quarters (Q1-Q4). It is designed to identify and display market phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal) along with key support and resistance levels within those sessions. Additionally, it allows customization of boxes, lines, labels, and colors to suit user preferences.
Main Features
Cycle Phases:
Accumulation (1900-0100): Represents the phase where large operators accumulate positions.
Manipulation (0100-0700): Identifies potential manipulative moves to mislead retail traders.
Distribution (0700-1300): The phase where large operators distribute their positions.
Continuation/Reversal (1300-1900): Indicates whether the price continues the trend or reverses.
90-Minute Quarters (Q1-Q4):
Divides each 6-hour cycle (360 minutes) into four 90-minute quarters (Q1: 00:00-01:30, Q2: 01:30-03:00, Q3: 03:00-04:30, Q4: 04:30-06:00 UTC).
Each quarter is displayed with a colored box (Q1: light purple, Q2: light blue, Q3: light gray, Q4: light pink) and labels (defaulted to black).
Support and Resistance Visualization:
Draws boxes or lines (based on settings) showing the high and low levels of each session.
Optionally displays accumulated volume at the highs and lows within the boxes.
Daily Lines and Last 3 Boxes:
How to Use the Indicator
Step 1: Add the Indicator to TradingView
Open TradingView and select the chart where you want to apply the indicator (e.g., UMG9OOR on a 5-minute timeframe, as shown in the screenshot).
Go to the Pine Editor (at the bottom of the TradingView interface).
Copy and paste the provided code.
Click Compile and then Add to Chart.
Step 2: Configure the Indicator
Click on the indicator name on the chart ("CYCLE") and select Settings (or double-click the name).
Adjust the options based on your needs:
Cycle Phases: Enable/disable phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, Continuation/Reversal) and adjust their time slots if needed.
90-Minute Quarters: Enable/disable quarters (Q1-Q4).
Step 3: Interpret the Indicator
Identify Cycle Phases:
Observe the red boxes indicating the phases (Accumulation, Manipulation, etc.).
The high and low levels within each phase are potential support/resistance zones.
If volume is enabled, pay attention to the accumulated volume at highs and lows, as it may indicate the strength of those levels.
Use the 90-Minute Quarters (Q1-Q4):
The colored boxes (Q1-Q4) divide the day into 90-minute segments.
Each quarter shows the price range (high and low) during that period.
Use these boxes to identify price patterns within each quarter, such as breakouts or consolidations.
The labels (Q1, Q2, etc.) help you track time and anticipate potential moves in the next quarter.
Analyze Support and Resistance:
The high and low levels of each phase/quarter act as support and resistance.
Daily lines (if enabled) show key levels from the previous day, useful for planning entries/exits.
The "last 3 boxes below price" (if enabled) highlight potential support levels the price might target.
Avoid Manipulation:
During the Manipulation phase (0100-0700), be cautious of sharp moves or false breakouts.
Use the high/low levels of this phase to identify potential traps (as explained in your first question about manipulation candles).
Step 4: Trading Strategy
Entries and Exits:
Support/Resistance: Use the high/low levels of phases and quarters to set entry or exit points.
For example, if the price bounces off a Q1 support level, consider a buy.
Breakouts: If the price breaks a high/low of a quarter (e.g., Q2), wait for confirmation to enter in the direction of the breakout.
Volume: If accumulated volume is high near a key level, that level may be more significant.
Risk Management:
Place stop-loss orders below lows (for buys) or above highs (for sells) identified by the indicator.
Avoid trading during the Manipulation phase unless you have a specific strategy to handle false breakouts.
Time Context:
Use the quarters (Q1-Q4) to plan your trades based on time. For example, if Q3 is typically volatile in your market, prepare for larger moves between 03:00-04:30 UTC.
Step 5: Adjustments and Testing
Test on Different Timeframes: The indicator is set for a 5-minute timeframe (as in the screenshot), but you can test it on other timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 15-minute) by adjusting the time slots if needed.
Adjust Colors and Styles: If the default colors are not visible on your chart, change them for better clarity.
---
📌 1. **Accumulation: Strong Institutional Activity**
- During the **accumulation phase, we see **high volume: 82.773K, which suggests strong buying interest**, likely from institutional players.
- This sets the base for the following upward move in price.
---
📌 2. **Manipulation: False Breakout with Lower Volume**
- Later, there's a manipulation phase where price breaks above previous highs, but the volume (71.814K) is **lower than during accumulation**.
- This implies that buyers are not as aggressive as before—no real demandbehind the breakout.
- It’s likely a bull trap, where smart money is selling into the breakout to exit their positions.
---
### 📌 3. Distribution: Weakness and Lack of Demand
- The market enters a distribution phase, and volume drops even further (only 7.914K).
- Price struggles to go higher, and you start seeing rejections at the top.
- This shows that demand is drying up, and smart money is offloading positions**—not accumulating anymore.
---
### 💡 Why Take the Short Here?
- Volume is not increasing with new highs—showing weak demand**.
- The manipulation volume is weaker than the accumulation volume, confirming the breakout was likely false.
- Structure starts to break down (Q levels falling), which confirms weakness.
- This creates a high-probability short setup:
- **Entry:** after confirmation of distribution and structural breakdown.
- **Stop loss:** above the manipulation high.
- **Target:** down toward previous lows or value zones.
---
### ✅ Conclusion
Since the manipulation volume failed to exceed the accumulation volume, the breakout lacked real strength. Combined with decreasing volume in the distribution phase, this indicates fading demand and supply taking control—which justifies entering a short position.
Schaff Trend Cycle (STC) - t0rdn3Schaff Trend Cycle (STC)
By t0rdn3 (original STC by , now with more descriptive naming)
Description
The Schaff Trend Cycle (STC) is a momentum-based oscillator that combines the speed of a fast EMA crossover with cyclical normalization. Developed by Doug Schaff, it identifies market turning points more responsively than MACD or RSI.
How It Works
1. EMA Difference : Calculates the difference between two EMAs of the source series (default: close).
2. Cycle Percentage : Normalizes that difference to a 0–100 range over the cycle period.
3. Smoothing : Applies exponential smoothing twice—first to the cycle percentage, then to its normalized cycles—to reduce noise.
4. Final STC Line : Produces a smoothed oscillator oscillating between 0 and 100.
Alerts
- "STC turned down above 75" : Fires once when STC makes a local peak above the upper threshold ( 75 ).
- "STC turned up below 25" : Fires once when STC makes a local trough below the lower threshold ( 25 ).
Inputs
Cycle Period : 12 — Lookback in bars for normalization
Fast EMA Length : 26 — Period of the fast EMA
Slow EMA Length : 50 — Period of the slow EMA
Smoothing Factor : 0.5 — Exponential smoothing coefficient (0–1)
Usage
Readings above 75 indicate an overbought cycle; readings below 25 indicate an oversold cycle. Crossings of the 50 midline can confirm trend direction:
- STC rising through 50 → bullish shift
- STC falling through 50 → bearish shift
Combine STC with price action or other trend filters to improve signal quality. You can adjust the cycle period and EMA lengths to match different timeframes or instruments.
