High and Low with Horizontal TableHigh and Low with Horizontal Table Indicator
Overview
The "High and Low with Horizontal Table" indicator is designed for traders who wish to monitor key levels based on specific candle times, along with dynamic risk-to-reward ratios and ATR-based values. This indicator features real-time calculations, visual cues, and a table for quick reference of the calculated values.
Key Features
Custom Time Inputs:
Users can define two specific time inputs to select the candles for the High and Low prices. These times can target the same or separate candles.
ATR-based Calculation:
The indicator allows users to apply an ATR Multiplier to adjust the calculation of key levels. By default, the ATR multiplier is set to 1.2, but users can adjust it to their preferred value (e.g., 1.5 or 2).
Risk-to-Reward (R:R) Calculation:
The Risk-to-Reward Ratio (R:R) is used to calculate potential Take Profit (TP) levels based on the high and low of the selected candle(s).
The default R:R ratio is 2.0, but it can be customized to suit the trader’s strategy.
Visual Markings:
The High and Low values are plotted with subtle markers on the chart (cross style) for easy identification. The display of these markers is subdued for minimal visual distraction.
Horizontal Table Display:
A horizontal table is generated in the top-right corner of the chart, providing a quick reference for the following values:
High and Low of the selected candle(s)
High + ATR Multiplier and Low - ATR Multiplier
R:R ratio
Buy TP and Sell TP levels
Each value is displayed with a reasonable number of decimal places (4 decimals) for major forex pairs, XAUUSD, and BTCUSD.
Input Parameters
Hour and Minute for High Candle: Select the time for the candle that will determine the High.
Hour and Minute for Low Candle: Select the time for the candle that will determine the Low.
ATR Multiplier: A customizable input for adjusting the ATR-based calculations (default is 1.2).
Risk-to-Reward (R:R): Set the ratio to determine the TP levels (default is 2.0).
How It Works
The user defines two distinct time inputs (one for the High and one for the Low).
At the specified times, the indicator captures the High and Low prices of the candles.
The ATR is calculated and adjusted by the user-defined ATR Multiplier to determine buffers above the High and below the Low.
The Risk-to-Reward ratio is applied to calculate the Take Profit levels.
All of these values are displayed on the chart and updated in real time. The horizontal table ensures quick reference to all the key levels without cluttering the main chart.
Use Cases
Trend Trading: Identify potential support and resistance levels based on specific timeframes and adjust TP targets using ATR.
Scalping: Use the ATR and R:R calculations to target precise entry and exit points.
Market Opens: Track key market opens (such as New York and London) with candle times that reflect your trading strategy.
Conclusion
The High and Low with Horizontal Table indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to combine precise candle-based level tracking with ATR-based risk management. By displaying key levels and TP targets in a clear, tabular format, traders can quickly assess and act on key price levels throughout their trading sessions.
[AcerX] Leverage, TP & Optimal TP CalculatorHow It Works
Inputs:
Portfolio Allocation (%): The percentage of your portfolio you're willing to risk on the trade.
Stop Loss (%): The stop loss distance below the entry price.
Taker Fee (%) and Maker Fee (%): The fees applied on entry and exit.
Calculations:
The script calculates the required "raw" leverage to risk 1% of your portfolio.
It floors the computed leverage to an integer ("effectiveLeverage").
If the computed leverage is less than 1, it shows an error message (and suggests the maximum allocation for at least 1× leverage).
Otherwise, it calculates the TP levels for target profits of 1.2%, 1.5%, and 2%, and an "Optimal TP" that nets a 1% profit after fees.
Display:
A table is drawn on the top right corner of your chart displaying the effective leverage, the TP levels, and an error message if applicable.
Simply add this script as a new indicator in TradingView, and adjust the inputs as needed.
Happy trading!
Chart Box Session Indicator [The Quant Science]This indicator allows highlighting specific time sessions within a chart by creating colored boxes to represent the price range of the selected session. Is an advanced and flexible tool for chart segmenting trading sessions. Thanks to its extensive customization options and advanced visualization features, it allows traders to gain a clear representation of key market areas based on chosen time intervals.
The indicator offers two range calculation modes:
Body to Body: considers the range between the opening and closing price.
Wick to Wick: considers the range between the session's low and high.
Body To Body
Wick to Wick
Key Features
1. Session Configuration
- Users can select the time range of the session of interest.
- Option to choose the day of the week for the calculation.
- Supports UTC timezone selection to correctly align data.
2. Customizable Visualization
- Option to display session price lines.
- Ability to show a central price line.
- Extension of session lines beyond the specified duration.
3. Design Display Configuration
- Three different background configurations to suit light and dark themes.
- Two gradient modes for session coloring:
- Centered: the color is evenly distributed.
- Off-Centered: the gradient is asymmetrical.
How It Works
The indicator determines whether the current time falls within the selected session, creating a colored box that highlights the corresponding price range. Depending on user preferences, the indicator draws horizontal lines at the minimum and maximum price levels and, optionally, a central line.
During the session:
- The lowest and highest session prices are dynamically updated.
- The range is divided into 10 bands to create a gradient effect.
- A colored box is generated to visually highlight the chosen session.
If the Extend Lines option is enabled, price lines continue even after the session ends, keeping the range visible for further analysis.
This indicator is useful for traders who want to analyze price behavior in specific timeframes. It is particularly beneficial for strategies based on market sessions (e.g., London or New York open) or for identifying accumulation and distribution zones.
is_strategyCorrection-Adaptive Trend Strategy (Open-Source)
Core Advantage: Designed specifically for the is_correction indicator, with full transparency and customization options.
Key Features:
Open-Source Code:
✅ Full access to the strategy logic – study how every trade signal is generated.
✅ Freedom to customize – modify entry/exit rules, risk parameters, or add new indicators.
✅ No black boxes – understand and trust every decision the strategy makes.
Built for is_correction:
Filters out false signals during market noise.
Works only in confirmed trends (is_correction = false).
Adaptable for Your Needs:
Change Take Profit/Stop Loss ratios directly in the code.
Add alerts, notifications, or integrate with other tools (e.g., Volume Profile).
For Developers/Traders:
Use the code as a template for your own strategies.
Test modifications risk-free on historical data.
How the Strategy Works:
Main Goal:
Automatically buys when the price starts rising and sells when it starts falling, but only during confirmed trends (ignoring temporary pullbacks).
What You See on the Chart:
📈 Up arrows ▼ (below the candle) = Buy signal.
📉 Down arrows ▲ (above the candle) = Sell signal.
Gray background = Market is in a correction (no trades).
Key Mechanics:
Buy Condition:
Price closes higher than the previous candle + is_correction confirms the main trend (not a pullback).
Example: Red candle → green candle → ▼ arrow → buy.
Sell Condition:
Price closes lower than the previous candle + is_correction confirms the trend (optional: turn off short-selling in settings).
Exit Rules:
Closes trades automatically at:
+0.5% profit (adjustable in settings).
-0.5% loss (adjustable).
Or if a reverse signal appears (e.g., sell signal after a buy).
User-Friendly Settings:
Sell – On (default: ON):
ON → Allows short-selling (selling when price falls).
OFF → Strategy only buys and closes positions.
Revers (default: OFF):
ON → Inverts signals (▼ = sell, ▲ = buy).
%Profit & %Loss:
Adjust these values (0-30%) to increase/decrease profit targets and risk.
Example Scenario:
Buy Signal:
Price rises for 3 days → green ▼ arrow → strategy buys.
Stop loss set 0.5% below entry price.
If price keeps rising → trade closes at +0.5% profit.
Correction Phase:
After a rally, price drops for 1 day → gray background → strategy ignores the drop (no action).
Stop Loss Trigger:
If price drops 0.5% from entry → trade closes automatically.
Key Features:
Correction Filter (is_correction):
Acts as a “noise filter” → avoids trades during temporary pullbacks.
Flexibility:
Disable short-selling, flip signals, or tweak profit/loss levels in seconds.
Transparency:
Open-source code → see exactly how every signal is generated (click “Source” in TradingView).
Tips for Beginners:
Test First:
Run the strategy on historical data (click the “Chart” icon in TradingView).
See how it performed in the past.
Customize It:
Increase %Profit to 2-3% for volatile assets like crypto.
Turn off Sell – On if short-selling confuses you.
Trust the Stop Loss:
Even if you think the price will rebound, the strategy will close at -0.5% to protect your capital.
Where to Find Settings:

Трендовая стратегия с открытым кодом
Главное преимущество: Полная прозрачность логики и адаптация под ваши нужды.
Особенности:
Открытый исходный код:
✅ Видите всю «кухню» стратегии – как формируются сигналы, когда открываются сделки.
✅ Меняйте правила – корректируйте тейк-профит, стоп-лосс или добавляйте новые условия.
✅ Никаких секретов – вы контролируете каждое правило.
Заточка под is_correction:
Игнорирует ложные сигналы в коррекциях.
Работает только в сильных трендах (is_correction = false).
Гибкая настройка:
Подстройте параметры под свой риск-менеджмент.
Добавьте свои индикаторы или условия для входа.
Для трейдеров и разработчиков:
Используйте код как основу для своих стратегий.
Тестируйте изменения на истории перед реальной торговлей.
Простыми словами:
Почему это удобно:
Открытый код = полный контроль. Вы можете:
Увидеть, как именно стратегия решает купить или продать.
Изменить правила закрытия сделок (например, поставить TP=2% вместо 1.5%).
Добавить новые условия (например, торговать только при высоком объёме).
Примеры кастомизации:
Новички: Меняйте только TP/SL в настройках (без кодинга).
Продвинутые: Добавьте RSI-фильтр, чтобы избегать перекупленности.
Разработчики: Встройте стратегию в свою торговую систему.
Как начать:
Скачайте код из TradingView.
Изучите логику в разделе strategy.entry/exit.
Меняйте параметры в блоке input.* (безопасно!).
Тестируйте изменения и оптимизируйте под свои цели.
Как работает стратегия:
Главная задача:
Автоматически покупает, когда цена начинает расти, и продаёт, когда падает. Но делает это «умно» — только когда рынок в основном тренде, а не во временном откате (коррекции).
Что видно на графике:
📈 Стрелки вверх ▼ (под свечой) — сигнал на покупку.
📉 Стрелки вниз ▲ (над свечой) — сигнал на продажу.
Серый фон — рынок в коррекции (не торгуем).
Как это работает:
Когда покупаем:
Если цена закрылась выше предыдущей и индикатор is_correction показывает «основной тренд» (не коррекция).
Пример: Была красная свеча → стала зелёная → появилась стрелка ▼ → покупаем.
Когда продаём:
Если цена закрылась ниже предыдущей и is_correction подтверждает тренд (опционально, можно отключить в настройках).
Когда закрываем сделку:
Автоматически при достижении:
+0.5% прибыли (можно изменить в настройках).
-0.5% убытка (можно изменить).
Или если появился противоположный сигнал (например, после покупки пришла стрелка продажи).
Настройки для чайников:
«Sell – On» (включено по умолчанию):
Если включено → стратегия будет продавать в шорт.
Если выключено → только покупки и закрытие позиций.
«Revers» (выключено по умолчанию):
Если включить → стратегия будет работать наоборот (стрелки ▼ = продажа, ▲ = покупка).
«%Profit» и «%Loss»:
Меняйте эти цифры (от 0 до 30), чтобы увеличить/уменьшить прибыль и риски.
Пример работы:
Сигнал на покупку:
Цена 3 дня растет → появляется зелёная стрелка ▼ → стратегия покупает.
Стоп-лосс ставится на 0.5% ниже цены входа.
Если цена продолжает расти → сделка закрывается при +0.5% прибыли.
Коррекция:
После роста цена падает на 1 день → фон становится серым → стратегия игнорирует это падение (не закрывает сделку).
Стоп-лосс:
Если цена упала на 0.5% от точки входа → сделка закрывается автоматически.
Важные особенности:
Фильтр коррекций (is_correction):
Это «защита от шума» — стратегия не реагирует на мелкие откаты, работая только в сильных трендах.
Гибкие настройки:
Можно запретить шорты, перевернуть сигналы или изменить уровни прибыли/убытка за 2 клика.
Прозрачность:
Весь код открыт → вы можете увидеть, как формируется каждый сигнал (меню «Исходник» в TradingView).
Советы для новичков:
Начните с теста:
Запустите стратегию на исторических данных (кнопка «Свеча» в окне TradingView).
Посмотрите, как она работала в прошлом.
Настройте под себя:
Увеличьте %Profit до 2-3%, если торгуете валюты.
Отключите «Sell – On», если не понимаете шорты.
Доверяйте стоп-лоссу:
Даже если кажется, что цена развернётся — стратегия закроет сделку при -0.5%, защитив ваш депозит.
Где найти настройки:
Кликните на название стратегии в верхнем левом углу графика → откроется меню с ползунками и переключателями.
Важно: Стратегия предоставляет «рыбу» – чтобы она стала «уловистой», адаптируйте её под свой стиль торговли!
200 EMA AlertHow It Works:
The 200 EMA calculates the average price over the last 200 periods, giving more weight to recent price movements for a smoother and more responsive trend line.
It helps traders determine whether the market is in a bullish (above 200 EMA) or bearish (below 200 EMA) phase.
Why Traders Use the 200 EMA:
✅ Trend Confirmation – If the price is above the 200 EMA, the trend is bullish; if below, the trend is bearish.
✅ Dynamic Support & Resistance – Price often reacts around the 200 EMA, making it a key level for entries and exits.
✅ Works on All Timeframes – Whether on the 1-minute chart or the daily timeframe, the 200 EMA is effective for scalping, swing trading, and long-term investing.
✅ Easy to Combine with Other Indicators – Traders pair it with RSI, MACD, or price action for stronger confirmation.
How to Use It in Trading:
📌 Trend Trading – Buy when price pulls back to the 200 EMA in an uptrend; sell when price retests it in a downtrend.
📌 Breakout Strategy – A strong candle breaking above/below the 200 EMA signals a possible trend reversal.
📌 Filtering Trades – Many traders only take long trades above and short trades below the 200 EMA to align with the overall market trend.
Conclusion:
The 200 EMA is an essential indicator for traders of all levels, offering clear trend direction, strong support/resistance zones, and trade filtering for better decision-making. Whether you're trading forex, stocks, or crypto, mastering the 200 EMA can give you a significant edge in the markets. 🚀📈
Consecutive Bullish/Bearish Candles🔍 Overview:
This indicator detects market manipulation and deception by identifying sequences of consecutive bullish or bearish candles. It highlights potential reversal zones where trends may exhaust or trap traders before reversing.
📌 How It Works:
The user can set a custom number of consecutive bullish or bearish candles (default: 5).
If the set number of consecutive green (bullish) or red (bearish) candles appears, the indicator plots a signal on the chart.
This pattern often signals exhaustion, stop hunts, or market traps, making it useful for traders looking for reversal opportunities.
📊 Features:
✅ Customizable candle count for detection
✅ Visual signals (✅ for bullish, ❌ for bearish)
✅ Alerts support for automated notifications
✅ Works on all timeframes and all markets (crypto, stocks, forex)
⚠️ Note:
This indicator does not guarantee reversals but helps identify areas where traders may be trapped and a trend shift is likely. Always use it with other confluence factors like volume, support/resistance, and market sentiment.
🚀 Use this tool to spot market deception and trade smart!
Wave Modulation Demo█ OVERVIEW
This script demonstrates Stacked Wave Modulation by visualizing four interconnected waves. Wave 1 is the base wave, influencing Wave 2's frequency, which in turn modulates Wave 3's amplitude, and finally, Wave 3 modulates Wave 4's phase. Explore the fascinating effects of wave modulation by adjusting the inputs for each wave and their modulation scales.
══════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ CONCEPTS
This script visualizes a cascade of wave modulations:
1 — Base Wave (Wave 1): This is the foundational wave. Its parameters (type, frequency, amplitude, phase, vertical shift) are directly controlled and serve as the basis for subsequent modulations.
2 — Frequency Modulation (Wave 2): Wave 2's frequency is modulated by Wave 1 . As Wave 1 oscillates, it dynamically changes the frequency of Wave 2 , creating interesting frequency variations. The Frequency Mod Scale input controls the intensity of this modulation.
3 — Amplitude Modulation (Wave 3): Building upon the cascade, Wave 3 's amplitude is modulated by Wave 2 . The peaks and troughs of Wave 2 influence the amplitude of Wave 3 , resulting in amplitude variations. The Amplitude Mod Scale input adjusts the strength of this amplitude modulation.
4 — Phase Modulation (Wave 4): Finally, Wave 4 's phase is modulated by Wave 3 . Wave 3 's oscillations shift the phase of Wave 4 , leading to phase-related distortions and dynamic wave patterns. The Phase Mod Scale input determines the extent of phase modulation.
5 — Stacked Wave (Average): The script calculates and plots the average of all four waves, providing a composite view of the combined modulation effects.
══════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ FEATURES
The script is organized into input groups for each wave, allowing for detailed customization:
1 — Wave 1: Base Wave
• Type : Select the waveform type for Wave 1 (Sine, Cosine, Triangle, Square).
• Frequency (Hz) : Sets the base frequency of Wave 1 in Hertz (cycles per second).
• Amplitude : Controls the vertical amplitude or height of Wave 1.
• Phase Shift (deg) : Adjusts the phase shift of Wave 1 in degrees, shifting the wave horizontally.
• Vertical Shift : Sets the vertical position of Wave 1 on the chart.
2 — Wave 2: Frequency Modulation
• Type : Select the waveform type for Wave 2.
• Base Frequency (Hz) : Sets the base frequency of Wave 2, before modulation.
• Amplitude : Controls the amplitude of Wave 2.
• Phase Shift (deg) : Adjusts the phase shift of Wave 2.
• Vertical Shift : Sets the vertical position of Wave 2.
• Frequency Mod Scale : Determines the degree to which Wave 1 modulates Wave 2's frequency. Higher values increase the modulation effect.
3 — Wave 3: Amplitude Modulation
• Type : Select the waveform type for Wave 3.
• Base Frequency (Hz) : Sets the base frequency of Wave 3.
• Amplitude : Controls the base amplitude of Wave 3, before modulation.
• Phase Shift (deg) : Adjusts the phase shift of Wave 3.
• Vertical Shift : Sets the vertical position of Wave 3.
• Amplitude Mod Scale : Determines the degree to which Wave 2 modulates Wave 3's amplitude. Higher values increase the modulation effect.
4 — Wave 4: Phase Modulation
• Type : Select the waveform type for Wave 4.
• Base Frequency (Hz) : Sets the base frequency of Wave 4.
• Amplitude : Controls the amplitude of Wave 4.
• Phase Shift (deg) : Sets the base phase shift of Wave 4, before modulation.
• Vertical Shift : Sets the vertical position of Wave 4.
• Phase Mod Scale : Determines the degree to which Wave 3 modulates Wave 4's phase. Higher values increase the modulation effect.
══════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ HOW TO USE
1. Add the "Stacked Wave Modulation Demo" script to your TradingView chart.
2. Explore the input settings. Each wave has its own group of customizable parameters.
3. Adjust the Type , Frequency , Amplitude , Phase Shift , and Vertical Shift for each wave to define their base characteristics.
4. Experiment with the modulation scales ( Frequency Mod Scale , Amplitude Mod Scale , Phase Mod Scale ) to control the intensity of the modulation effects between the waves.
5. Observe how the waves interact and how the modulations shape their forms and the final stacked wave (average).
══════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ NOTES
* This script utilizes the `waves` and `hsvColor` libraries. Look for other scripts on my profile.
* The frequencies are set in Hertz (cycles per second), which relate to bars on the chart. A frequency of 0.5 Hz means 0.5 cycles per bar, or 1 cycle every 2 bars.
* Adjusting the modulation scales allows you to fine-tune the visual impact of the modulation effects.
* The color of each wave plot is dynamically generated based on its value using the HSV color model for visual distinction.
* Feel free to modify and experiment with the script to create different modulation schemes or stacking methods.

Volume Flow Indicator Signals | iSolani
Volume Flow Indicator Signals | iSolani: Decoding Trend Momentum with Volume Precision
In markets where trends are fueled by institutional participation, discerning genuine momentum from false moves is critical. The Volume Flow Indicator Signals | iSolani cuts through this noise by synthesizing price action with volume dynamics, generating high-confidence signals when capital flows align with directional bias. This tool reimagines traditional volume analysis by incorporating volatility-adjusted thresholds and dual-layer smoothing, offering traders a laser-focused approach to trend identification.
Core Methodology
The indicator employs a multi-stage calculation to quantify volume-driven momentum:
Volatility-Adjusted Filter: Measures price changes via log returns, scaling significance using a 30-bar standard deviation multiplied by user-defined sensitivity (default: 2x).
Volume Normalization: Caps extreme volume spikes at 3x the 50-bar moving average, preventing distortion from anomalous trades.
Directional Volume Flow: Assigns positive/negative values to volume based on whether price movement exceeds volatility-derived thresholds.
Dual Smoothing: Applies consecutive SMA (3-bar) and EMA (14-bar) to create the Volume Flow Indicator (VFI) and its signal line, filtering out transient fluctuations.
Breaking New Ground
This implementation introduces three key innovations:
Adaptive Noise Gates: Unlike static volume oscillators, the sensitivity coefficient dynamically adjusts to market volatility, reducing false signals during choppy conditions.
Institutional Volume Capping: The vcoef parameter limits the influence of outlier volume spikes, focusing on sustained institutional activity rather than one-off trades.
Non-Repainting Signals: Generates single-per-trend labels (buy below bars, sell above) to avoid chart clutter while maintaining visual clarity.
Engine Under the Hood
The script executes through five systematic stages:
Data Preparation: Computes HLC3 typical price and its logarithmic rate of change.
Threshold Calculation: Derives dynamic cutoff levels using 30-period volatility scaled by user sensitivity.
Volume Processing: Filters raw volume through a 50-bar SMA, capping extremes at 3x average.
VFI Construction: Sums directional volume flow over 50 bars, smoothed with a 3-bar SMA.
Signal Generation: Triggers alerts when VFI crosses zero, confirmed by a 14-bar EMA crossover.
Standard Configuration
Optimized defaults balance responsiveness and reliability:
Volume MA: 50-bar smoothing window
Sensitivity: 2.0 (doubles volatility threshold)
Signal Smoothing: 14-bar EMA
Volume Cap: 3x average (hidden parameter)
VFI Smoothing: Enabled (3-bar SMA)
By fusing adaptive volume filtering with price confirmation logic, the Volume Flow Indicator Signals | iSolani transforms raw market data into institutional-grade trend signals. Its ability to mute choppy price action while amplifying high-conviction volume moves makes it particularly effective for spotting early trend reversals in equities, forex, and futures markets.

Astro R4.0Regarding the code that has a significant impact on Pine Community and many feel helped by it, this is the code that I ported from VBA to PineScript which comes from simontelescopium owner of astroexcel dot wordpress dot com and "astrofnc" by Keith Burnett, previously I used it personally but I forgot to give a citation to those who are entitled to them both so that when I shared it for community use and it has been shared by brother @BarefootJoey with the additions made by him personally, there was no citation for them.
Apologies for my negligence because I am only human.
Hopefully with this script it can help the community to see the potential for implementation in the trading world as a significant variable.
Finally, I publish this script as a reference to find out astronomical charts presented in table form to make it easier to visualize and debug as long as the input.timestamp() allow it.
Future updates for optimization using library of brother @BarefootJoey
Thank you.

Futures Symbol: The BTC futures contract that expires in June 2025 (BTCUSDM2025).
Expiry Date: The expiration date of the futures contract, set to June 27, 2025.
These inputs allow users to adjust the symbols or expiry date according to their trading needs.
2. Price Data Retrieval
Spot Price: Fetches the latest closing price of BTC from the spot market.
Futures Price: Fetches the latest closing price of BTC futures.
Spread: The difference between the futures price and the spot price (futures_price - spot_price).
The spread indicates how much higher (or lower) the futures price is compared to the spot market.
3. Time to Maturity (TTM) and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) Calculation
Current Date: Gets the current timestamp.
Time to Maturity (TTM): The number of days left until the futures contract expires.
APY Calculation:
Formula:
APY = ( Spread / Spot Price ) x ( 365 / TTM Days ) x 100
This represents the annualized return from holding a cash-and-carry arbitrage position if the trader buys BTC at the spot price and sells BTC futures.
4. Display Information Table on the Chart
A table is created on the chart's top-right corner showing the following data:
Metric: Labels such as Spread and APY
Value: Displays the calculated spread and APY
The table automatically updates at the latest bar to display the most recent data.
5. Alert Condition
This sets an alert condition that triggers every time the script runs.
In practice, users can modify this alert to trigger based on specific conditions (e.g., APY exceeds a threshold).
6. Plotting the APY and Spread
APY Plot: Displays the annualized yield as a blue line on the chart.
Spread Plot: Visualizes the futures-spot spread as a red line.
This helps traders quickly identify arbitrage opportunities when the spread or APY reaches desirable levels.
How to Use the Script
Monitor Arbitrage Opportunities:
A positive spread indicates a potential cash-and-carry arbitrage opportunity.
The larger the APY, the more profitable the arbitrage opportunity could be.
Timing Trades:
Execute a buy on the BTC spot market and simultaneously sell BTC futures when the APY is attractive.
Close both positions upon futures contract expiry to realize profits.
Risk Management:
Ensure you have sufficient margin to hold both positions until expiry.
Monitor funding rates and volatility, which could affect returns.
Conclusion
This script is an essential tool for traders looking to exploit price discrepancies between the BTC spot market and futures market through a cash-and-carry arbitrage strategy. It provides real-time data on spreads, annualized returns (APY), and visual alerts, helping traders make informed decisions and maximize their profit potential.
Oblique StrategiesHi, this is a fun script that will print an Oblique Strategy to help you think laterally for the day of trading ahead of you.
Oblique Strategies are a concept conceived by Brian Eno the Music Producer, Artist, and modern-day philosopher. Oblique Strategies are a pack of 52 cards that have a creative suggestion on each one. When Brian was at a point at which he could not see a clear way forward in his creations, he would pick out a random card out of the Oblique Strategies pack, to help him think differently as to how to move forward. They are specifically devised for music creators, but i find the help in a multitude of situations.
Enjoy!
Advanced Averaged Momentum Indicator (AAMI)Key Features of AAMI:
Combination of Momentum Indicators: It averages normalized values from RSI, MACD histogram, raw Momentum, and Stochastic oscillator to give a comprehensive view of momentum.
Normalization: Each component is normalized to a scale from -1 to 1 to ensure they contribute equally to the AMI calculation.
Visual Cues: The indicator includes visual levels for neutral, overbought, and oversold conditions to aid in quick decision-making.
Alerts: Basic alert conditions are included for when AMI moves into overbought or oversold territory, which traders can customize further.
Customizable: All parameters can be adjusted within TradingView to tailor the indicator to different market conditions or trading strategies.
Smoothing: Included an SMA for AMI to reduce noise and give smoother signals.
Divergence Detection: Implemented a basic divergence detection mechanism to spot potential reversals.
Usage Tips:
Overbought/Oversold: When AMI goes above 0.7, it might suggest an overbought condition, potentially signaling a sell or take profit. Below -0.7 might indicate oversold conditions, suggesting a buy opportunity.
Divergence: Watch for divergences between the AMI and price action for signals of potential trend reversals.
Crossing Zero: The AMI crossing from negative to positive might be used as a buy signal, and vice versa for a sell signal.
This script provides a new way to view momentum by consolidating multiple traditional indicators into one, potentially offering clearer signals in complex market environments.
Boilerplate Configurable Strategy [Yosiet]This is a Boilerplate Code!
Hello! First of all, let me introduce myself a little bit. I don't come from the world of finance, but from the world of information and communication technologies (ICT) where we specialize in data processing with the aim of automating it and eliminating all human factors and actors in the processes. You could say that I am an algotrader.
That said, in my journey through trading in recent years I have understood that this world is often shown to be incomplete. All those who want to learn about trading only end up learning a small part of what it really entails, they only seek to learn how to read candlesticks. Therefore, I want to share with the entire community a fraction of what I have really understood it to be.
As a computer scientist, the most important thing is the data, it is the raw material of our work and without data you simply cannot do anything. Entropy is simple: Data in -> Data is transformed -> Data out.
The quality of the outgoing data will directly depend on the incoming data, there is no greater mystery or magic in the process. In trading it is no different, because at the end of the day it is nothing more than data. As we often say, if garbage comes in, garbage comes out.
Most people focus on the results only, on the outgoing data, because in the end we all want the same thing, to make easy money. Very few pay attention to the input data, much less to the process.
Now, I am not here to delude you, because there is no bigger lie than easy money, but I am here to give you a boilerplate code that will help you create strategies where you only have to concentrate on the quality of the incoming data.
To the Point
The code is a strategy boilerplate that applies the technique that you decide to customize for the criteria for opening a position. It already has the other factors involved in trading programmed and automated.
1. The Entry
This section of the boilerplate is the one that each individual must customize according to their needs and knowledge. The code is offered with two simple, well-known strategies to exemplify how the code can be reused for your own benefits.
For the purposes of this post on tradingview, I am going to use the simplest of the known strategies in trading for entries: SMA Crossing
// SMA Cross Settings
maFast = ta.sma(close, length)
maSlow = ta.sma(open, length)
The Strategy Properties for all cases published here:
For Stock TSLA H1 From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Crypto XMR-USDT 30m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Forex EUR-USD 5m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
But the goal of this post is not to sell you a dream, else to show you that the same Entry decision works very well for some and does not for others and with this boilerplate code you only have to think of entries, not exits.
2. Schedules, Days, Sessions
As you know, there are an infinite number of markets that are susceptible to the sessions of each country and the news that they announce during those sessions, so the code already offers parameters so that you can condition the days and hours of operation, filter the best time parameters for a specific market and time frame.
3. Data Filtering
The data offered in trading are numerical series presented in vectors on a time axis where an endless number of mathematical equations can be applied to process them, with matrix calculation and non-linear regressions being the best, in my humble opinion.
4. Read Fundamental Macroeconomic Events, News
The boilerplate has integration with the tradingview SDK to detect when news will occur and offers parameters so that you can enable an exclusion time margin to not operate anything during that time window.
5. Direction and Sense
In my experience I have found the peculiarity that the same algorithm works very well for a market in a time frame, but for the same market in another time frame it is only a waste of time and money. So now you can easily decide if you only want to open LONG, SHORT or both side positions and know how effective your strategy really is.
6. Reading the money, THE PURPOSE OF EVERYTHING
The most important section in trading and the reason why many clients usually hire me as a financial programmer, is reading and controlling the money, because in the end everyone wants to win and no one wants to lose. Now they can easily parameterize how the money should flow and this is the genius of this boilerplate, because it is what will really decide if an algorithm (Indicator: A bunch of math equations) for entries will really leave you good money over time.
7. Managing the Risk, The Ego Destroyer
Many trades, little money. Most traders focus on making money and none of them know about statistics and the few who do know something about it, only focus on the winrate. Well, with this code you can unlock what really matters, the true success criteria to be able to live off of trading: Profit Factor, Sortino Ratio, Sharpe Ratio and most importantly, will you really make money?
8. Managing Emotions
Finally, the main reason why many lose money is because they are very bad at managing their emotions, because with this they will no longer need to do so because the boilerplate has already programmed criteria to chase the price in a position, cut losses and maximize profits.
In short, this is a boilerplate code that already has the data processing and data output ready, you only have to worry about the data input.
“And so the trader learned: the greatest edge was not in predicting the storm, but in building a boat that could not sink.”

Candle Momentum ExhaustionCandle Momentum Exhaustion
The Candle Momentum Exhaustion indicator is designed to help traders spot potential turning points in a trend by identifying when the prevailing momentum may be “running on empty.” The indicator works by comparing the size of each candle’s body (the absolute difference between the open and close) to the average body size over a recent period. When a candle’s body exceeds a user‐defined multiple of this average, it is flagged as an “exhaustion” candle.
• A bullish exhaustion (shown with a red down–facing triangle above the bar) occurs when a very large bullish candle (close > open) is detected, suggesting that buyers may have pushed the price too far and the rally could be near its end.
• A bearish exhaustion (shown with a green up–facing triangle below the bar) occurs when a very large bearish candle (close < open) is detected, implying that selling pressure might be overdone.
These signals can alert you to a potential reversal or consolidation point. The script also includes alert conditions so that you can set up notifications whenever an exhaustion signal is generated.
How It Works
1. Average Candle Body:
The script computes a simple moving average (SMA) of the absolute candle bodies over a user-defined period (default is 14 bars).
2. Exhaustion Candidate:
A candle is flagged as an exhaustion candidate if its body size exceeds the average by more than the set multiplier (default is 2.0).
3. Signal Identification:
• If the exhaustion candle is bullish (close > open), it is marked with a red down–facing triangle above the bar.
• If it is bearish (close < open), it is marked with a green up–facing triangle below the bar.
4. Alerts:
The built-in alertcondition() calls allow you to set alerts (via TradingView’s alert system) so that you can be notified when an exhaustion event occurs.

Starfield Scroller█ OVERVIEW
This script creates a visually appealing starfield effect on your chart. It generates and animates multiple star fields, each customizable with its own parameters. Explore the input options to adjust the number of stars, their speed, and color.
█ CONCEPTS
The script is a simple demonstration, and utilizes a custom `starfield` function and my `geo` library for point management. It simulates a parallax effect by creating stars at random positions and moving them across the chart at varying speeds.
Star Creation
• Stars are generated with random X and Y coordinates within defined boundaries.
• Each star is assigned a random speed factor, influencing its movement speed.
• Star color is also influenced by its speed; faster stars appear more transparent.
Star Movement & Management
• The script maintains a dynamic array of Star structures. Each Star structure holds the star's creation bar index, location (as a Point ), speed factor, and the label used to display it.
• On each new bar, new stars are created and added to the array.
• Stars are moved horizontally based on their speed factor.
• Stars that move off-screen are deleted to manage resource usage.
• The maximum number of stars for each starfield instance is controlled by an input parameter.
Parallax Effect
• The varying speeds of the stars create a parallax effect, giving the illusion of depth to the starfield.
█ FEATURES
This script includes two independent starfield instances, each configurable via inputs.
Starfield 1:
• Max Stars 1: Maximum number of stars in the first starfield.
• New Stars Per Bar 1: Number of new stars created per bar for the first starfield.
• Max Star Speed 1: Maximum speed of the stars in the first starfield.
• Star Color 1: Color of the stars in the first starfield.
Starfield 2:
• Max Stars 2: Maximum number of stars in the second starfield.
• New Stars Per Bar 2: Number of new stars created per bar for the second starfield.
• Max Star Speed 2: Maximum speed of the stars in the second starfield.
• Star Color 2: Color of the stars in the second starfield.
█ HOW TO USE
1 — Add the script to your chart.
2 — Adjust the input parameters for each starfield to customize its appearance and behavior.
3 — Observe the animated starfield effect.
█ LIMITATIONS
• Excessive numbers of stars may impact performance. Adjust the maximum number of stars and new stars per bar accordingly.
• The script uses labels for rendering stars, which can have limitations on certain chart timeframes and settings.
█ NOTES
This script is intended for visual enhancement and does not provide trading signals. It demonstrates the use of custom types, arrays, and functions for creating complex visual effects in Pine Script™. The `geo` library is used for consistent point calculations.

Thanks to the TradingView community for inspiration and support.
KEMAD | QuantumResearchQuantumResearch KEMAD Indicator
The QuantumResearch KEMAD Indicator is a sophisticated trend-following and volatility-based tool designed for traders who demand precision in detecting market trends and price reversals. By leveraging advanced techniques implemented in PineScript, this indicator integrates a Kalman filter, an Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and dynamic ATR-based deviation bands to produce clear, actionable trading signals.
1. Overview
The KEMAD Indicator aims to:
Reduce Market Noise: Employ a Kalman filter to smooth price data.
Identify Trends: Use an EMA of the filtered price to define the prevailing market direction.
Set Dynamic Thresholds: Adjust breakout levels with ATR-based deviation bands.
Generate Signals: Provide clear long and short trading signals along with intuitive visual cues.
2. How It Works
A. Kalman Filter Smoothing
Purpose: The Kalman filter refines the selected price source (e.g., close price) by reducing short-term fluctuations, thus offering a clearer view of the underlying price movement.
Customization: Users can adjust key parameters such as:
Process Noise: Controls the filter’s sensitivity to recent changes.
Measurement Noise: Determines how responsive the filter is to incoming price data.
Filter Order: Sets the number of data points considered in the smoothing process.
B. EMA-Based Trend Detection
Primary Trend EMA: A 25-period EMA is applied to the Kalman-filtered price, serving as the core trend indicator.
Signal Mechanism:
Long Signal: Triggered when the price exceeds the EMA plus an ATR-based upper deviation.
Short Signal: Triggered when the price falls below the EMA minus an ATR-based lower deviation.
C. ATR Deviation Bands
ATR Utilization: The Average True Range (ATR) is computed (default length of 21) to assess market volatility.
Dynamic Thresholds:
Upper Deviation: Calculated by adding 1.5× ATR to the EMA (for long signals).
Lower Deviation: Calculated by subtracting 1.1× ATR from the EMA (for short signals).
These bands adapt to current volatility, ensuring that signal thresholds are both dynamic and market-sensitive.
3. Visual Representation
The indicator’s design emphasizes clarity and ease of use:
Color-Coded Bar Signals:
Green Bars: Indicate bullish conditions when a long signal is active.
Red Bars: Indicate bearish conditions when a short signal is active.
Trend Confirmation Line: A 54-period EMA is plotted to further validate trend direction. Its color dynamically changes to reflect the active trend.
Background Fill: The space between a calculated price midpoint (typically the average of high and low) and the EMA is filled, visually emphasizing the prevailing market trend.
4. Customization & Parameters
The KEMAD Indicator is highly configurable, allowing traders to tailor the tool to their specific trading strategies and market conditions:
ATR Settings:
ATR Length: Default is 21; adjusts sensitivity to market volatility.
EMA Settings:
Trend EMA Length: Default is 25; smooths price action for trend detection.
Confirmation EMA Length: Default is 54; aids in confirming the trend.
Kalman Filter Parameters:
Process Noise: Default is 0.01.
Measurement Noise: Default is 3.0.
Filter Order: Default is 5.
Deviation Multipliers:
Long Signal Multiplier: Default is 1.5× ATR.

Appearance: Eight customizable color themes are available to suit individual visual preferences.
5. Trading Applications
The versatility of the KEMAD Indicator makes it suitable for various trading strategies:
Trend Following: It helps identify and ride sustained bullish or bearish trends by filtering out market noise.
Breakout Trading: Detects when prices move beyond the ATR-based deviation bands, signaling potential breakout opportunities.
Reversal Detection: Alerts traders to potential trend reversals when price crosses the dynamically smoothed EMA.
Risk Management: Offers clearly defined entry and exit points, based on volatility-adjusted thresholds, enhancing trade precision and risk control.
6. Final Thoughts
The QuantumResearch KEMAD Indicator represents a unique blend of advanced filtering (via the Kalman filter), robust trend analysis (using EMAs), and dynamic volatility assessment (through ATR deviation bands).
Its PineScript implementation allows for a high degree of customization, making it an invaluable tool for traders looking to reduce noise, accurately detect trends, and manage risk effectively.
Whether used for trend following, breakout strategies, or reversal detection, the KEMAD Indicator is designed to adapt to varying market conditions and trading styles.

Walk Forward PatternsINTRO
In Euclidean geometry, every mathematical output has a planar projection. 'Walk Forward Patterns' can be considered a practical example of this concept. On the other hand, this indicator might also be viewed as an experiment in 'how playing with Lego as a child contributes to time series analysis' :)
OVERVIEW
This script dynamically generates the necessary optimization and testing ranges for Walk Forward Analysis based on user-defined bar count and length inputs. It performs automatic calculations for each step, offers 8 different window options depending on the inputs, and visualizes the results dynamically. I should also note that most of the window models consist of original patterns I have created.
ADDITIONAL INFO : WHAT IS WALK FORWARD ANALYSIS?
Although it is not the main focus of this indicator, providing a brief definition of Walk Forward Analysis can be helpful in correctly interpreting the results it generates. Walk Forward Analysis (WFA) is a systematic method for optimizing parameters and validating trading strategies. It involves dividing historical data into variable segments, where a strategy is first optimized on an in-sample period and then tested on an out-of-sample period. This process repeats by shifting the windows forward, ensuring that each test evaluates the strategy on unseen data, helping to assess its robustness and adaptability in real market conditions.
ORIGINALITY
There are very few studies on Walk Forward Analysis in TradingView. Even worse, there are no any open-source studies available. Someone has to start somewhere, I suppose. And in my personal opinion, determining the optimization and backtest intervals is the most challenging part of WFA. These intervals serve as a prerequisite for automated parameter optimization. I felt the need to publish this pattern module, which I use in my own WFA models, partly due to this gap on community scripts.
INDICATOR MECHANICS
To use the indicator effectively, you only need to perform four simple tasks:
Specify the total number of bars in your chart in the 'Bar Index' parameter.
Define the optimization (In-Sample Test) length.
Define the testing (Out-Of-Sample Test) length.
Finally, select the window type.
The indicator automatically models everything else (including the number of steps) based on your inputs. And the result; you now have a clear idea of which bars to use for your Walk Forward tests!
A COMMONLY USED WINDOW SELECTION METHOD: ROLLING
A more concrete definition of Walk Forward Analysis, specifically for the widely used Rolling method, can be described as follows:
Parameters that have performed well over a certain period are identified (Optimization: In-Sample).
These parameters are then tested on a shorter, subsequent period (Backtest: Out-of-Sample).
The process is repeated forward in time (At each step, the optimization and backtest periods are shifted by the backtest length).
If the cumulative percentage profit obtained from the backtest results is greater than half of the historical optimization profit, the strategy is considered "successful."
If the strategy is successful, the most recent (untested) optimization values are used for live trading.
OTHER WINDOW OPTIONS
ANCHORED: That's a pattern based on progressively expanding optimization ranges at each step. Backtest ranges move forward in a staircase-like manner.
STATIC: Optimization ranges remain fixed, while backtest ranges are shifted forward.
BLOCKED: Optimization ranges are shifted forward in groups of three blocks. Backtest ranges are also shifted in a staircase manner, even at the cost of creating gaps from the optimization end bars.
TRIANGULAR: Optimization ranges are shifted forward in triangular regions, while backtest ranges move in a staircase pattern.
RATIO: The optimization length increases by 25% of the initial step’s fixed length at each step. In other words, the length grows by 25% of the first step's length incrementally. Backtest ranges always start from the bar where the optimization ends.
FIBONACCI: A variation of the Ratio method, where the optimization shift factor is set to 0.618
RANDOM WALK
Unlike the window models explained above, we can also generate optimization and backtest ranges completely randomly—offering almost unlimited variations! When you select the "Random" option in the "Window" parameter on the indicator interface, random intervals are generated based on various trigonometric calculations. By changing the numerical value in the '🐒' parameter, you can create entirely unique patterns.
WHY THE 🐒 EMOJI?
Two reasons.
First, I think that as humanity, we are a species of tailless primates who become happy when we understand things :). At least evolutionarily. The entire history of civilization is built on the effort to express the universe in a scale we can comprehend. 'Knowledge' is an invention born from this effort, which is why we feel happiness when we 'understand'. Second, I can't think of a better metaphor for randomness than a monkey sitting at a keyboard. See: Monkey Test.
Anyway, I’m rambling :)
NOTES
The indicator generates results for up to 100 steps. As the number of steps increases, the table may extend beyond the screen—don’t forget to zoom out!
FINAL WORDS
I haven’t published a Walk Forward script yet . However, there seem to be examples that can perform parameter optimization in the true sense of the word, producing more realistic results without falling into overfitting in my library. Hopefully, I’ll have the chance to publish one in the coming weeks. Sincerely thanks to Kıvanç Özbilgiç, Robert Pardo, Kevin Davey, Ernest P. Chan for their inspiring publishments.

That's just a script, nothing more. I hope it helps everyone. Do not forget to manage your risk. And trade as safely as possible. Best of luck!

Moving Averages With Continuous Periods [macp]This script reimagines traditional moving averages by introducing floating-point period calculations, allowing for fractional lengths rather than being constrained to whole numbers. At its core, it provides SMA, WMA, and HMA variants that can work with any decimal length, which proves especially valuable when creating dynamic indicators or fine-tuning existing strategies.
The most significant improvement lies in the Hull Moving Average implementation. By properly handling floating-point mathematics throughout the calculation chain, this version reduces the overshoot tendencies that often plague integer-based HMAs. The result is a more responsive yet controlled indicator that better captures price action without excessive whipsaw.
The visual aspect incorporates a trend gradient system that can adapt to different trading styles. Rather than using fixed coloring, it offers several modes ranging from simple solid colors to more nuanced three-tone gradients that help identify trend transitions. These gradients are normalized against ATR to provide context-aware visual feedback about trend strength.
From a practical standpoint, the floating-point approach eliminates the subtle discontinuities that occur when integer-based moving averages switch periods. This makes the indicator particularly useful in systems where the MA period itself is calculated from market conditions, as it can smoothly transition between different lengths without artificial jumps.
At the heart of this implementation lies the concept of continuous weights rather than discrete summation. Traditional moving averages treat each period as a distinct unit with integer indexing. However, when we move to floating-point periods, we need to consider how fractional periods should behave. This leads us to some interesting mathematical considerations.
Consider the Weighted Moving Average kernel. The weight function is fundamentally a slope: -x + length where x represents the position in the averaging window. The normalization constant is calculated by integrating (in our discrete case, summing) this slope across the window. What makes this implementation special is how it handles the fractional component - when the length isn't a whole number, the final period gets weighted proportionally to its fractional part.
For the Hull Moving Average, the mathematics become particularly intriguing. The standard HMA formula HMA = WMA(2*WMA(price, n/2) - WMA(price, n), sqrt(n)) is preserved, but now each WMA calculation operates in continuous space. This creates a smoother cascade of weights that better preserves the original intent of the Hull design - to reduce lag while maintaining smoothness.
The Simple Moving Average's treatment of fractional periods is perhaps the most elegant. For a length like 9.7, it weights the first 9 periods fully and the 10th period at 0.7 of its value. This creates a natural transition between integer periods that traditional implementations miss entirely.
The Gradient Mathematics
The trend gradient system employs normalized angular calculations to determine color transitions. By taking the arctangent of price changes normalized by ATR, we create a bounded space between 0 and 1 that represents trend intensity. The formula (arctan(Δprice/ATR) + 90°)/180° maps trend angles to this normalized space, allowing for smooth color transitions that respect market volatility context.
This mathematical framework creates a more theoretically sound foundation for moving averages, one that better reflects the continuous nature of price movement in financial markets. The implementation recognizes that time in markets isn't truly discrete - our sampling might be, but the underlying process we're trying to measure is continuous. By allowing for fractional periods, we're creating a better approximation of this continuous reality.
This floating-point moving average implementation offers tangible benefits for traders and analysts who need precise control over their indicators. The ability to fine-tune periods and create smooth transitions makes it particularly valuable for automated systems where moving average lengths are dynamically calculated from market conditions. The Hull Moving Average calculation now accurately reflects its mathematical formula while maintaining responsiveness, making it a practical choice for both systematic and discretionary trading approaches. Whether you're building dynamic indicators, optimizing existing strategies, or simply want more precise control over your moving averages, this implementation provides the mathematical foundation to do so effectively.
