Volume Weighted RSI (VW RSI)The Volume Weighted RSI (VW RSI) is a momentum oscillator designed for TradingView, implemented in Pine Script v6, that enhances the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) by incorporating trading volume into its calculation. Unlike the standard RSI, which measures the speed and change of price movements based solely on price data, the VW RSI weights its analysis by volume, emphasizing price movements backed by significant trading activity. This makes the VW RSI particularly effective for identifying bullish or bearish momentum, overbought/oversold conditions, and potential trend reversals in markets where volume plays a critical role, such as stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
Key Features
Volume-Weighted Momentum Calculation:
The VW RSI calculates momentum by comparing the volume associated with upward price movements (up-volume) to the volume associated with downward price movements (down-volume).
Up-volume is the volume on bars where the closing price is higher than the previous close, while down-volume is the volume on bars where the closing price is lower than the previous close.
These volumes are smoothed over a user-defined period (default: 14 bars) using a Running Moving Average (RMA), and the VW RSI is computed using the formula:
\text{VW RSI} = 100 - \frac{100}{1 + \text{VoRS}}
where
\text{VoRS} = \frac{\text{Average Up-Volume}}{\text{Average Down-Volume}}
.
Oscillator Range and Interpretation:
The VW RSI oscillates between 0 and 100, with a centerline at 50.
Above 50: Indicates bullish volume momentum, suggesting that volume on up bars dominates, which may signal buying pressure and a potential uptrend.
Below 50: Indicates bearish volume momentum, suggesting that volume on down bars dominates, which may signal selling pressure and a potential downtrend.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: User-defined thresholds (default: 70 for overbought, 30 for oversold) help identify potential reversal points:
VW RSI > 70: Overbought, indicating a possible pullback or reversal.
VW RSI < 30: Oversold, indicating a possible bounce or reversal.
Visual Elements:
VW RSI Line: Plotted in a separate pane below the price chart, colored dynamically based on its value:
Green when above 50 (bullish momentum).
Red when below 50 (bearish momentum).
Gray when at 50 (neutral).
Centerline: A dashed line at 50, optionally displayed, serving as the neutral threshold between bullish and bearish momentum.
Overbought/Oversold Lines: Dashed lines at the user-defined overbought (default: 70) and oversold (default: 30) levels, optionally displayed, to highlight extreme conditions.
Background Coloring: The background of the VW RSI pane is shaded red when the indicator is in overbought territory and green when in oversold territory, providing a quick visual cue of potential reversal zones.
Alerts:
Built-in alerts for key events:
Bullish Momentum: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses above 50, indicating a shift to bullish volume momentum.
Bearish Momentum: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses below 50, indicating a shift to bearish volume momentum.
Overbought Condition: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses above the overbought threshold (default: 70), signaling a potential pullback.
Oversold Condition: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses below the oversold threshold (default: 30), signaling a potential bounce.
Input Parameters
VW RSI Length (default: 14): The period over which the up-volume and down-volume are smoothed to calculate the VW RSI. A longer period results in smoother signals, while a shorter period increases sensitivity.
Overbought Level (default: 70): The threshold above which the VW RSI is considered overbought, indicating a potential reversal or pullback.
Oversold Level (default: 30): The threshold below which the VW RSI is considered oversold, indicating a potential reversal or bounce.
Show Centerline (default: true): Toggles the display of the 50 centerline, which separates bullish and bearish momentum zones.
Show Overbought/Oversold Lines (default: true): Toggles the display of the overbought and oversold threshold lines.
How It Works
Volume Classification:
For each bar, the indicator determines whether the price movement is upward or downward:
If the current close is higher than the previous close, the bar’s volume is classified as up-volume.
If the current close is lower than the previous close, the bar’s volume is classified as down-volume.
If the close is unchanged, both up-volume and down-volume are set to 0 for that bar.
Smoothing:
The up-volume and down-volume are smoothed using a Running Moving Average (RMA) over the specified period (default: 14 bars) to reduce noise and provide a more stable measure of volume momentum.
VW RSI Calculation:
The Volume Relative Strength (VoRS) is calculated as the ratio of smoothed up-volume to smoothed down-volume.
The VW RSI is then computed using the standard RSI formula, but with volume data instead of price changes, resulting in a value between 0 and 100.
Visualization and Alerts:
The VW RSI is plotted with dynamic coloring to reflect its momentum direction, and optional lines are drawn for the centerline and overbought/oversold levels.
Background coloring highlights overbought and oversold conditions, and alerts notify the trader of significant crossings.
Usage
Timeframe: The VW RSI can be used on any timeframe, but it is particularly effective on intraday charts (e.g., 1-hour, 4-hour) or daily charts where volume data is reliable. Shorter timeframes may require a shorter length for increased sensitivity, while longer timeframes may benefit from a longer length for smoother signals.
Markets: Best suited for markets with significant and reliable volume data, such as stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies. It may be less effective in markets with low or inconsistent volume, such as certain futures contracts.
Trading Strategies:
Trend Confirmation:
Use the VW RSI to confirm the direction of a trend. For example, in an uptrend, look for the VW RSI to remain above 50, indicating sustained bullish volume momentum, and consider buying on pullbacks when the VW RSI dips but stays above 50.
In a downtrend, look for the VW RSI to remain below 50, indicating sustained bearish volume momentum, and consider selling on rallies when the VW RSI rises but stays below 50.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions:
When the VW RSI crosses above 70, the market may be overbought, suggesting a potential pullback or reversal. Consider taking profits on long positions or preparing for a short entry, but confirm with price action or other indicators.
When the VW RSI crosses below 30, the market may be oversold, suggesting a potential bounce or reversal. Consider entering long positions or covering shorts, but confirm with additional signals.
Divergences:
Look for divergences between the VW RSI and price to spot potential reversals. For example, if the price makes a higher high but the VW RSI makes a lower high, this bearish divergence may signal an impending downtrend.
Conversely, if the price makes a lower low but the VW RSI makes a higher low, this bullish divergence may signal an impending uptrend.
Momentum Shifts:
A crossover above 50 can signal the start of bullish momentum, making it a potential entry point for long trades.
A crossunder below 50 can signal the start of bearish momentum, making it a potential entry point for short trades or an exit for long positions.
Example
On a 4-hour SOLUSDT chart:
During an uptrend, the VW RSI might rise above 50 and stay there, confirming bullish volume momentum. If it approaches 70, it may indicate overbought conditions, as seen near a price peak of 145.08, suggesting a potential pullback.
During a downtrend, the VW RSI might fall below 50, confirming bearish volume momentum. If it drops below 30 near a price low of 141.82, it may indicate oversold conditions, suggesting a potential bounce, as seen in a slight recovery afterward.
A bullish divergence might occur if the price makes a lower low during the downtrend, but the VW RSI makes a higher low, signaling a potential reversal.
Limitations
Lagging Nature: Like the traditional RSI, the VW RSI is a lagging indicator because it relies on smoothed data (RMA). It may not react quickly to sudden price reversals, potentially missing the start of new trends.
False Signals in Ranging Markets: In choppy or ranging markets, the VW RSI may oscillate around 50, generating frequent crossovers that lead to false signals. Combining it with a trend filter (e.g., ADX) can help mitigate this.
Volume Data Dependency: The VW RSI relies on accurate volume data, which may be inconsistent or unavailable in some markets (e.g., certain forex pairs or futures contracts). In such cases, the indicator’s effectiveness may be reduced.
Overbought/Oversold in Strong Trends: During strong trends, the VW RSI can remain in overbought or oversold territory for extended periods, leading to premature exit signals. Use additional confirmation to avoid exiting too early.
Potential Improvements
Smoothing Options: Add options to use different smoothing methods (e.g., EMA, SMA) instead of RMA for the up/down volume calculations, allowing users to adjust the indicator’s responsiveness.
Divergence Detection: Include logic to detect and plot bullish/bearish divergences between the VW RSI and price, providing visual cues for potential reversals.
Customizable Colors: Allow users to customize the colors of the VW RSI line, centerline, overbought/oversold lines, and background shading.
Trend Filter: Integrate a trend strength filter (e.g., ADX > 25) to ensure signals are generated only during strong trends, reducing false signals in ranging markets.
The Volume Weighted RSI (VW RSI) is a powerful tool for traders seeking to incorporate volume into their momentum analysis, offering a unique perspective on market dynamics by emphasizing price movements backed by significant trading activity. It is best used in conjunction with other indicators and price action analysis to confirm signals and improve trading decisions.

Delta Volume Columns [LucF]Displays delta volume columns using intrabar volume information. Each volume column is divided into three sections: buying, selling and neutral volume. Volume for each section is determined from the volume and price movement of each intrabar at a user-selected lower resolution.
Features include:
- Choice of color themes for either dark or light chart backgrounds
- Delta volume columns
- Volume Balance displayed as the difference between the MAs of buying and selling volume
- Display of divergences between a bar’s volume balance and the bar’s price movement (example: buying volume > selling volume but close < open). Divergences can be shown in 2 different color schemes (including green/red showing a tentative direction), on volume columns and/or on chart bars
- Display of bar by bar volume balance with highlighting of above average volume
- Display of the usual total volume MA
- Choice of the lower resolution used to retrieve intrabar information
- Alerts configurable on any combination of the markers, with control over long/short direction
- Choice of 3 different markers:
1. Double bumps: two consecutive bars where buying or selling volume is in the same direction and where volume > volume MA
2. Divergence confirmations: direction of the price bar following a price/volume balance divergence
3. Volume balance shifts: zero level crossings of the volume balance MA delta
The chart shows the two main modes of display:
- Top pane : shows the stacked volume columns with divergences in orange and the flattened volume balance MAs delta at the bottom of the volume columns. This volume balance is the same shown in the bottom pane. The top pane also shows the instant volume balance strip above the volume columns. The strip’s colors show which of the buying or selling volume was greater, and colors are brighter if the total volume was above the total volume MA.
- Bottom pane : shows the volume balance MAs delta with markers 1 and 2. Given that this graphic has no price momentum component, I find quite eerie how it often looks like a momentum-based signal.
The default 5 minute intrabar resolution is used in combination with the weekly chart, which is excessive.
This script uses a special characteristic of the security() function’s behavior when it is sent to a resolution lower than the chart’s resolution. Details are given in the script’s comments. This method has the advantage of working under more circumstances than some of the other loop-based methods, but it also has its limits.
IMPORTANT
This is what you need to know:
- The method used does not work on the realtime bar—only on historical bars. Consequently, the volume column shown on the realtime bar is a normal volume column plotted in green or red, following price movement. The column will only show delta volume information after it closes and becomes a historical bar.
- The indicator only works on some chart resolutions: 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, and 12 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month. The script’s code can be modified to run on other resolutions, but chart resolutions must be divisible by the lower resolution used for intrabars.
- Intrabar resolutions can be selected from 1, 5, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month. The intrabar resolution must of course be smaller than the chart’s resolution.
- Contrary to my other indicators where alerts must be configured to trigger “Once Per Bar Close” in order to avoid false triggers (or repainting), all this indicator’s alerts are designed to trigger using previous bar information since the indicator’s calculations in the realtime bar are not exact. Markers are not plotted with a negative offset; they appear at the beginning of the realtime bar following confirmation of the marker’s condition on the previous bar. Alerts for this indicator should thus be configured to trigger “Once Per Bar” so they trigger at the beginning of the realtime bar. Note that the penalty is not that great, as it is simply the instant between the close of the previous realtime bar and the opening of the next. The advantage of using this technique is that the indicator does not repaint; a marker that appears at the beginning of the realtime bar will never disappear.
- The script only plots information that is reliable in the realtime bar, i.e., total volume and markers. All other plots are set to n/a to prevent misleading traders.
- When the difference between the chart’s resolution and the lower resolution is too important, volume columns will not calculate for all bars in the dataset.
On Delta Volume
Buying or selling volume are misnomers, as every unit of volume transacted is both bought and sold by 2 different traders. There is no such thing as “buy only” or “sell only” volume, but trader lingo is riddled with original fabulations.
Without access to order book information, traders work with the assumption that when price moves up during a bar, there was more buying pressure than selling pressure. The built-in volume indicator available on TradingView uses this logic to color the volume columns green or red. While this script’s numbers are more precise because it analyses a number of intrabars to calculate its information, it uses the exact same imperfect logic to calculate its buying/selling/neutral sections.
Until Pine scripts can have access to how much volume was transacted at the bid/ask prices, our so-called buying/selling volume information will always be a mere proxy.
Divergences
You may wonder how there can be divergences between buying/selling volume information and price movement. This will sometimes be due to the methodology’s shortcomings we have just discussed, but divergences may also occur in instances where because of order book structure, it takes less volume to increase the price of an asset than it takes to decrease it.
As usual, divergences are points of interest because they reveal imbalances, which may or may not become turning points. I do not share the overwhelming enthusiasm traders have for divergences. To your pattern-hungry brain, the orange bars this indicator shows on chart will—as divergences on other indicators do–appear to often indicate turnarounds. My opinion is that reality is generally quite sobering, as many who have tried building automated rules based on divergences will tell you. I do not have hard numbers on the lack of performance of divergences—only many failed attempts to make them perform, which a few experienced strategy modelers I know share with me. Please don’t try to read too much into them. While they look great on past data, I find they are often difficult to use in realtime to make bets with good odds.
Thanks to:
- A guy called Kuan who commented on a Backtest Rookies presentation of an intrabar delta volume indicator using a for loop. The heart of “my” indicator is code borrowed from Kuan; I just built a hopefully useful wrapper around it.

SMT SwiftEdge PowerhouseSMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse: Precision Trading with Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones
The SMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders identify high-probability entry points during the most active market sessions—London and New York. By combining Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Zones, this script provides a unique and cohesive strategy for capturing market reversals with precision. Whether you're a scalper or a swing trader, this indicator offers clear visual signals to enhance your trading decisions on any timeframe.
What Does This Script Do?
This script integrates three key concepts to identify potential trading opportunities:
SMT Divergence:
SMT Divergence compares the price action of two correlated assets (e.g., Nasdaq and S&P 500 futures) to detect hidden market reversals. When one asset makes a higher high while the other makes a lower high (bearish divergence), or one makes a lower low while the other makes a higher low (bullish divergence), it signals a potential reversal. This technique leverages institutional "smart money" behavior to anticipate market shifts.
Liquidity Grabs:
Liquidity Grabs occur when price breaks above recent highs or below recent lows on higher timeframes (5m and 15m), often triggering stop-loss orders from retail traders. These breakouts are identified using pivot points and confirm institutional activity, setting the stage for a reversal. The script focuses on liquidity grabs during the London and New York sessions for maximum market activity.
Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Zones:
OTE Zones are Fibonacci-based retracement areas (e.g., 61.8%) calculated after a liquidity grab. These zones highlight where price is likely to retrace before continuing in the direction of the reversal, offering a high-probability entry point. The script adjusts the width of these zones using the Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to market volatility.
By combining these components, the script identifies when institutional activity (liquidity grabs) aligns with market reversals (SMT divergence) and pinpoints precise entry points (OTE zones) during high-liquidity sessions.
Why Combine These Components?
The integration of SMT Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones creates a robust trading system for several reasons:
Synergy of Institutional Signals: SMT Divergence and Liquidity Grabs both reflect "smart money" behavior—divergence shows hidden reversals, while liquidity grabs confirm institutional intent to trap retail traders. Together, they provide a strong foundation for identifying high-probability setups.
Session-Based Precision: Focusing on the London and New York sessions ensures signals occur during periods of high volatility and liquidity, increasing their reliability.
Precision Entries with OTE: After confirming a setup with divergence and liquidity grabs, OTE zones provide a clear entry area, reducing guesswork and improving trade accuracy.
Adaptability: The script works on any timeframe, with adjustable settings for signal sensitivity, session times, and Fibonacci levels, making it versatile for different trading styles.
This combination makes the script unique by aligning institutional insights with actionable entry points, tailored to the most active market hours.
How to Use the Script
Setup:
Add the script to your chart (works on any timeframe, e.g., 1m, 5m, 15m).
Configure the settings in the indicator's inputs:
Session Settings: Adjust the start/end times for London and New York sessions (default: London 8-11 UTC, New York 13-16 UTC). You can disable session restrictions if desired.
Asset Settings: Set the primary and secondary assets for SMT Divergence (default: NQ1! and ES1!). Ensure the assets are correlated.
Signal Settings: Adjust the lookback period, ATR period, and signal sensitivity (Low/Medium/High) to control the frequency of signals.
OTE Settings: Choose the Fibonacci level for OTE zones (default: 61.8%).
Visual Settings: Enable/disable OTE zones, SMT labels, and debug labels for troubleshooting.
Interpreting Signals:
Blue Circles: Indicate a liquidity grab (price breaking a 5m or 15m pivot high/low), marking the start of a potential setup.
Blue OTE Zones: Appear after a liquidity grab, showing the retracement area (e.g., 61.8% Fibonacci level) where price is likely to enter for a reversal trade. The label "OTE Trigger 5m/15m" confirms the direction (Short/Long) and session.
Green/Red Entry Boxes: Mark precise entry points when price enters the OTE zone and confirms the SMT Divergence. Green boxes indicate a long entry, red boxes a short entry.
Trading Example:
On a 1m chart, a blue circle appears when price breaks a 5m pivot high during the London session.
A blue OTE zone forms, showing a retracement area (e.g., 61.8% Fibonacci level) with the label "OTE Trigger 5m/15m (Short, London)".
Price retraces into the OTE zone, and a red "Short Entry" box appears, confirming a bearish SMT Divergence.
Enter a short trade at the red box, with a stop-loss above the OTE zone and a take-profit at the next support level.
Originality and Utility
The SMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse stands out by merging SMT Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones into a single, session-focused indicator. Unlike traditional indicators that focus on one aspect of price action, this script combines institutional reversal signals with precise entry zones, tailored to the most active market hours. Its adaptability across timeframes, customizable settings, and clear visual cues make it a versatile tool for traders seeking to capitalize on smart money movements with confidence.
Tips for Best Results
Use on correlated assets like NQ1! (Nasdaq futures) and ES1! (S&P 500 futures) for accurate SMT Divergence.
Test on lower timeframes (1m, 5m) for scalping or higher timeframes (15m, 1H) for swing trading.
Adjust the "Signal Sensitivity" to "High" for more signals or "Low" for fewer, high-quality setups.
Enable "Show Debug Labels" if signals are not appearing as expected, to troubleshoot pivot points and liquidity grabs.
Enhanced CCI with Trend FiltersThis indicator combines the power of the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) with adaptive trend filters and divergence detection to identify high-probability trading opportunities. It's designed to reduce false signals by incorporating trend direction and divergence confirmation.
🔍 How It Works:
1. Trend Detection:
- Uses an adaptive Simple Moving Average (SMA) that automatically adjusts between daily and weekly timeframes
- Daily mode: Default 200 SMA for longer-term trend
- Weekly mode: Default 40 SMA for broader market perspective
- Trend direction is determined by comparing current SMA value to its previous value
2. CCI Component:
- Traditional CCI calculation with customizable length (default: 20)
- Adjustable overbought (default: +100) and oversold (default: -100) levels
- Color-coded CCI line for quick visual reference:
* Green: Overbought and rising
* Red: Oversold and falling
* Gray: Neutral zone
3. Signal Generation:
- Buy Signal (Green Background):
* CCI crosses above oversold level AND
* Main trend is confirmed bullish (rising SMA)
- Sell Signal (Red Background):
* CCI crosses below overbought level AND
* Main trend is confirmed bearish (falling SMA)
4. Divergence Detection:
- Automatically identifies bullish and bearish divergences
- Bullish Divergence: Price makes lower low while CCI makes higher low
- Bearish Divergence: Price makes higher high while CCI makes lower high
- Visualized with distinct markers on the CCI line
- Can be used to set up alerts for divergence confirmations
⚙️ Customization Options:
- CCI calculation length and price source
- Overbought/Oversold levels
- SMA lengths for daily and weekly modes
- Divergence lookback period

MACD All In One Screener [ChartPrime]INTRODUCTION
MACD All In One Screener (ChartPrime) is a multi instrument, multi timeframe indicator designed to provide traders with a comprehensive solution to monitoring the market. This indicator is designed to be easy to use and visually appealing while also being highly flexible and feature rich. Users can pick up to 10 symbols not including the chart's symbol and set up alerts for many different signals that the MACD produces. One standout feature of this indicator is its ability to display not only each symbol individually as a MACD but you can also view its chart from within this indicator. This removes the need to flip between symbols to see the price action for your basket.
On top of that we have designed this indicator to be friendly with "indicator on indicator" by providing outputs for all of the standards of price that users may want. Included is an overview section that shows all of the symbols signals symbolically over time. Additionally we have included a table for easy monitoring. This table includes the symbol, its timeframe, the current alert, and its histogram state. To make things as user friendly as possible we have also included rich error handling that tells you exactly what is wrong with your configuration.
HOW TO USE
To use this indicator, simply add it to your chart and navigate to the settings. From there select the symbols you want to monitor and the timeframes you want to use. Next you want to navigate down to the alerts section to select the what alerts you want to receive, and what symbols you want to get alerts for. Finally, you wan to create your alert using "Any alert() function call". Now your screener is all set up!
OVERVIEW OF INPUTS
View allows you to select what the indicator currently displays. You can pick from any one of the selected symbols, an overview of all of the symbols, or simply nothing. If you want to only use the table, "None" is provided so you can move the indicator into the chart panel.
View Toggle lets you pick from displaying the MACD for the selected symbol or the Price Action as a candle chart. To see your "indicator on indicator" you will have to select a symbol from the view list. There is a bug where if you select "Overview" while you are using "indicator on indicator" your added indicator will see the last symbol you viewed. To fix this, simply change the setting of your overlaid indicator and it will correct its self.
History Length is the number of historical bars to calculate over. This feature is here to prevent the indicator from breaking due to uneven historical data between the symbols.
Show Price Line toggles a dotted line that follows the current symbols closing price when "Price" is selected under the "View Toggle" dropdown.
Show Symbol Label toggles a label that displays the current symbols name and timeframe. This only impacts the single symbol view.
Overview Label Color adjusts the color of the symbol labels for both overview and single symbol view.
MA Type lets you pick what kind of moving average you want to use for the oscillator or signal. You can pick from the standard SMA or EMA.
Fast Length is a standard input for MACD. This lets you pick the period of the fast MA.
Slow Length , just like Fast Lenght, is a standard input for MACD. This lets you pick the period of the slow MA.
Signal Length is another standard input for MACD. This lets you configure the period of the signal MA.
MACD Cross Overlay Icon is a toggle to display MACD crosses when viewing a single symbol's MACD. When the MACD has a bullish cross it will plot a bullish dot, and when it has a bearish cross it will plot a bearish dot. This is purely visual.
Regular Bullish and Bearish toggles the visual display of the divergences on the single symbol view. This does not effect the indicators ability do send alerts.
Divergence Look Right adjusts the number of bars into the future to look for confirmation of a signal. This directly impacts lag but enhances stability.
Divergence Look Left adjusts the number of bars into the past to check for a signal. A longer period will filter out smaller moves

BG Color adjusts the background color of the table.
Frame Color adjust the frame color of the table.
Current Symbol Time Frame adjusts the timeframe of the chart's symbol.
Symbol 1 - 10 pick "Symbol's" symbol and timeframe. To use higher timeframes, the symbol's have to be the same type. You can't have a crypto and a stock using HTF at the same time as they don't have the same sessions and will result in an error. You can use unsafe mode (as described below) to potentially get around this.
Enable Symbol when enabled it will give you alerts for the symbol. This also enables the symbol in the overview. If this is disabled it won't send alerts, and it will not show up in overview, or the table.
Wait for Close enables waiting for the bar to close before printing an alert.
Alert Symbol Size picks what size you want the overview symbols to be.
Enable Cross Over 0 Alert: MACD crosses over the 0 line.

Enable MACD Cross Bullish Alert: Bullish MACD cross.
Enable MACD Cross Bearish Alert: Bearish MACD cross.
Enable Histogram Bullish Turn Alert: MACD begins to turn bullish but hasn't crossed.
Enable Histogram Bearish Turn Alert: MACD begins to turn bearish but hasn't crossed.
Enable Histogram Bullish Continuation Alert: MACD is in a bullish cross state and it was declining but began rising again.
Enable Histogram Bearish Continuation Alert: MACD is in a bearish cross state and it was rising but began falling again.
Enable Bullish/Bearish Divergence Alert enables divergence alerts. Divergences are lagging, especially on a higher timeframe. These alerts will also tell you the time in the past when the divergence occurred.
Color Section is provided to allow for personalization of the indicator. Everything can be adjusted here.
Disable Error Checking: Only enable this if you want to bypass the built in error checking. This will enable 'Safe Requesting'. Safe Requesting will only request enabled symbols and you will not be able to view symbols that are not enabled in this mode. Only use this if you want to mix symbol types and you know it will work. (An example would be viewing stocks and SPY at the same time.)

RSI Supreme Multi-Method [MyTradingCoder]Introducing the "RSI Supreme Multi-Method" indicator, a powerful tool that combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with selectable manipulation methods to identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market, along with the ability to detect divergences for enhanced trading insights.
The indicator features four distinct manipulation methods for the RSI, each providing valuable insights into market conditions:
1. Standard RSI Method: The indicator uses the traditional RSI calculation to identify overbought and oversold areas.
2. Volatility Weighted RSI Method: This method applies a volatility formula to the RSI calculation, allowing for a more responsive indication of market conditions during periods of heightened volatility. Users can adjust the length of the volatility formula to fine-tune this method.
3. Smoothed RSI Method: The smoothed RSI method utilizes a smoothing algorithm to reduce noise in the RSI values, presenting a clearer representation of overbought and oversold conditions. The length of the smoothing can be adjusted to match your trading preferences.
4. Session Weighted RSI Method: With this innovative method, users can specify multipliers for different time sessions throughout the day to manipulate the base RSI. Each session can be customized with start and end times, enabling or disabling specific sessions, and specifying the multiplier for each session. This feature allows traders to adapt the RSI to different market sessions dynamically.
Additionally, the "RSI Supreme Multi-Method" indicator draws divergences on the oscillator, providing an extra layer of analysis for traders. Divergences occur when the direction of the RSI differs from the direction of the price movement, potentially signaling trend reversals.
Key Settings:
RSI Length: Adjust the length of the base RSI before applying any manipulation.
RSI Source: Determine the data source for the base RSI calculation.
Overbought Value: Set the RSI value at which overbought conditions are indicated.
Oversold Value: Set the RSI value at which oversold conditions are indicated.
RSI Type: Choose from four options: Standard, Smoothed, Volatility Manipulated, or Session Manipulated.
Volatility Manipulated Settings: Adjust the length of the volatility formula (applicable to Volatility Manipulated method).
Smoothed Settings: Adjust the length of the smoothing (applicable to Smoothed method).
Session Manipulated Settings: Customize six different time sessions with start and end times, enable or disable specific sessions, and specify multipliers for each session.
Divergence Color: Adjust the color of the drawn divergences to suit your chart's aesthetics.
Divergence Tuning: Fine-tune the sensitivity of the divergence detection for more accurate signals.
The "RSI Supreme Multi-Method" indicator is a versatile and comprehensive tool that can be used to identify overbought and oversold areas, as well as to spot potential trend reversals through divergences. However, like all technical analysis tools, it should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis methods to make well-informed trading decisions.
Enhance your trading insights with the "RSI Supreme Multi-Method" indicator and gain an edge in identifying critical market conditions and divergences with precision.

Volume CloudsI know it isn't much, but it is my first time coding an indicator!
You might need to modify distance to fit the volatility and time frame of the chart you are looking at (if candles stay on top of cloud in an ugly mess, increase distance until signals can be seen). Sometimes heikin ashi candles can really help clear the picture up as well.
How to use:
The lines are the Volume Weighted Moving Average (green) and Simple Moving Average (red).
Cloud is green when VWMA is above SMA ( bullish ) and red when SMA is above VWMA ( bearish ).
The thicker the cloud, the stronger the signal. Also, the farther price strays from the cloud, the more pressure there is for it to return.
Look for divergences:
When price passes below a green cloud you have a bullish divergence (or if cloud turns green at crossing point)
Price pass above red cloud = bearish divergence.
Or confirmations:
Price passes below red cloud = bearish confirmation.
Price pass above green cloud = bullish confirmation.
I hope this helps you at least a little! Twitter: GarrettZ
Cypto Oscillator with Sortino-like VolatilityEnhanced Inverted Ultimate Oscillator with Sortino-like Volatility
This indicator combines the power of the Ultimate Oscillator with a unique Sortino-like volatility calculation to provide a comprehensive view of market dynamics. It's designed to help traders identify potential turning points and assess the risk associated with price movements.
**Core Components:**
* **Ultimate Oscillator (UO):** The UO is a momentum indicator that incorporates short, medium, and long-term price action to identify overbought and oversold conditions. This indicator inverts and normalizes the UO to a 0-10 scale, providing a clear view of momentum shifts.
* **Sortino-like Volatility:** Instead of a standard deviation, this indicator uses a downside deviation calculation. This focuses specifically on *negative* price movements, offering a more relevant measure of risk for most traders. By not penalizing upside volatility, it avoids giving false signals during strong bull runs. The downside deviation is scaled as a percentage of the closing price for cross-asset comparability.
* **Volatility Signal:** The inverted UO is multiplied by the downside deviation to create a combined volatility signal. This signal reflects both momentum and downside risk, providing a more nuanced market perspective.
**Key Features and Uses:**
* **Identifying Potential Turning Points:** Divergences between the UO and price action can signal potential trend reversals. Look for the UO to make higher lows while price makes lower lows (bullish divergence) or the UO to make lower highs while price makes higher highs (bearish divergence).
* **Assessing Downside Risk:** The Sortino-like volatility component helps traders gauge the potential for downside price swings. Higher volatility suggests greater risk.
* **Dynamic Volatility Thresholds:** The indicator includes adjustable upper and lower volatility thresholds, based on a moving average of the volatility signal. These thresholds can be used to identify periods of unusually high or low volatility.
* **Customizable Lookback Periods:** Traders can adjust the lookback periods for the UO and the standard deviation calculation to fine-tune the indicator to their specific trading style and market conditions.
* **Visualizations:** The indicator provides several visual aids, including:
* A histogram of the volatility signal, colored dynamically based on its relationship to the moving average of volatility. Red indicates volatility above the upper bound, orange between the bounds and green below the lower bound.
* A line plot of the volatility signal.
* An optional moving average of the volatility signal.
* Optional upper and lower volatility threshold lines with a filled range for visual clarity.
* **Alerts:** The indicator includes alert conditions for when the volatility signal crosses above the upper threshold (high volatility) or below the lower threshold (low volatility).
**How to Use:**
1. **Inputs:** Adjust the input parameters to optimize the indicator for your chosen asset and timeframe.
2. **Divergences:** Look for divergences between the UO and price to identify potential trend reversals.
3. **Volatility:** Use the volatility signal and thresholds to assess downside risk.
4. **Alerts:** Enable alerts to be notified of high or low volatility events.
**Disclaimer:** This indicator is for informational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Always conduct your own thorough analysis before making any trading decisions.

DMI Delta by 0xjcfOverview
This indicator integrates the Directional Movement Index (DMI), Average Directional Index (ADX), and volume analysis into an Oscillator designed to help traders identify divergence-based trading signals. Unlike typical volume or momentum indicators, this combination provides insight into directional momentum and volume intensity, allowing traders to make well-informed decisions based on multiple facets of market behavior.
Purpose and How Components Work Together
By combining DMI and ADX with volume analysis, this indicator helps traders detect when momentum diverges from price action—a common precursor to potential reversals or significant moves. The ADX filter enhances this by distinguishing trending from range-bound conditions, while volume analysis highlights moments of extreme sentiment, such as solid buying or selling. Together, these elements provide traders with a comprehensive view of market strength, directional bias, and volume surges, which help filter out weaker signals.
Key Features
DMI Delta and Oscillator: The DMI indicator measures directional movement by comparing DI+ and DI- values. This difference (DMI Delta) is calculated and displayed as a histogram, visualizing changes in directional bias. When combined with ADX filtering, this histogram helps traders gauge the strength of momentum and spot directional shifts early. For instance, a rising histogram in a bearish price trend might signal a potential bullish reversal.
Volume Analysis with Extremes: Volume is monitored to reveal when market participation is unusually high, using a customizable multiplier to highlight significant volume spikes. These extreme levels are color-coded directly on the histogram, providing visual cues on whether buying or selling interest is particularly strong. Volume analysis adds depth to the directional insights from DMI, allowing traders to differentiate between regular and powerful moves.
ADX Trending Filter: The ADX component filters trends by measuring the overall strength of a price move, with a default threshold of 25. When ADX is above this level, it suggests that the market is trending strongly, making the DMI Delta readings more reliable. Below this threshold, the market is likely range-bound, cautioning traders that signals might not have as much follow-through.
Using the Indicator in Divergence Strategies
This indicator excels in divergence strategies by highlighting moments when price action diverges from directional momentum. Here’s how it aids in decision-making:
Bullish Divergence: If the price is falling to new lows while the DMI Delta histogram rises, it can indicate weakening bearish momentum and signal a potential price reversal to the upside.
Bearish Divergence: Conversely, if prices are climbing but the DMI Delta histogram falls, it may point to waning bullish momentum, suggesting a bearish reversal.
Visual Cues and Customization
The color-coded output enhances usability:
Bright Green/Red: Extreme volume with strong bullish or bearish signals, often at points of high potential for trend continuation or reversal.
Green/Red Shades: These shades reflect trending conditions (bullish or bearish) based on ADX, factoring in volume. Green signals a bullish trend, and red is a bearish trend.
Blue/Orange Shades: Indicates non-trending or weaker conditions, suggesting a more cautious approach in range-bound markets.
Customizable for Diverse Trading Styles
This indicator allows users to adjust settings like the ADX threshold and volume multiplier to optimize performance for various timeframes and strategies. Whether a trader prefers swing trading or intraday scalping, these parameters enable fine-tuning to enhance signal reliability across different market contexts.
Practical Usage Tips
Entry and Exit Signals: Use this indicator in conjunction with price action. Divergences between the price and DMI Delta histogram can reinforce entry or exit decisions.
Adjust Thresholds: Based on backtesting, customize the ADX Trending Threshold and Volume Multiplier to ensure optimal performance on different timeframes or trading styles.
In summary, this indicator is tailored for traders seeking a multi-dimensional approach to market analysis. It blends momentum, trend strength, and volume insights to support divergence-based strategies, helping traders confidently make informed decisions. Remember to validate signals through backtesting and use it alongside price action for the best results.
Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) of Money Flow Index (MFI)"He who does not know how to make predictions and makes light of his opponents, underestimating his ability, will certainly be defeated by them."
(Sun Tzu - The Art of War)
▮ Introduction
The Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) is a technical analysis indicator that uses the difference between the current closing price and the high or low price over a specific time period to measure price momentum.
On the other hand, the Money Flow Index (MFI) is an indicator that uses volume and price to measure buying and selling pressure.
When these two indicators are combined, they can provide a more comprehensive view of price direction and market strength.
▮ Improvements
By combining SMI with MFI, we can gain even more insights into the market. One way to do this is to use the MFI as an input to the SMI, rather than just using price.
This means we are measuring momentum based on buying and selling pressure rather than just price.
Another way to improve this indicator is to adjust the periods to suit your specific trading needs.
▮ What to look
When using the SMI MFI indicator, there are a few things to look out for.
First, look at the SMI signal line.
When the line crosses above -40, it is considered a buy signal, while the crossing below +40 is considered a sell signal.
Also, pay attention to divergences between the SMI MFI and the price.
If price is rising but the SMI MFI is showing negative divergence, it could indicate that momentum is waning and a reversal could be in the offing.
Likewise, if price is falling but the SMI MFI is showing positive divergence, this could indicate that momentum is building and a reversal could also be in the offing.
In the examples below, I show the use in conjunction with the price SMI, in which the MFI SMI helps to anticipate divergences:
In summary, the SMI MFI is a useful indicator that can provide valuable insights into market direction and price strength.
By adjusting the timeframes and paying attention to divergences and signal line crossovers, traders can use it as part of a broader trading strategy.
However, remember that no indicator is a magic bullet and should always be used in conjunction with other analytics and indicators to make informed trading decisions.
[blackcat] L1 New TRIX ScalperNOTE: Because the originally released script failed to comply with the House Rule in the description, it was banned. After revising and reviewing the description, it is republished again. Please forgive the inconvenience caused.
Level: 1
Background
The Triple Exponential Moving Average (TRIX) indicator is a strong technical analysis tool. It can help investors determine the price momentum and identify oversold and overbought signals in a financial asset. Jack Hutson is the creator of the TRIX indicator . He created it in the early 1980s to show the rate of change in a triple exponentially smoothed moving average.
When used as an oscillator, it shows a potential peak and trough price zones. A positive value tells traders that there is an overbought market while a negative value means an oversold market. When traders use TRIX as a momentum indicator, it filters spikes in the price that are vital to the general dominant trend.
A positive value means momentum is rising while a negative value means that momentum is reducing. A lot of analysts believe that when the TRIX crosses above the zero line it produces a buy signal, and when it closes below the zero line, it produces a sell signal.The indicator has three major components:
Zero line
TRIX line (or histograms)
Percentage Scale
Function
The TRIX indicator determines overbought and oversold markets, and it can also be a momentum indicator. Just as it is with most oscillators, TRIX oscillates around a zero line. Additionally, divergences between price and TRIX can mean great turning points in the market. TRIX calculates a triple exponential moving average of the log of the price input. It calculates this based on the time specified by the length input for the current bar.
Trading TRIX indicator signals
Zero line cross
TRIX can help determine the impulse of the market. With the 0 value acting as a centerline, if it crosses from below, it will be mean that the impulse is growing in the market.Traders can, therefore, look for opportunities to place buy orders in the market. Similarly, a cross of the centerline from above will mean a shrinking impulse in the market. Traders can, therefore, look for opportunities to sell in the market.
Signal line cross
To select the best entry points, investors add a signal line on the TRIX indicator. The signal line is a moving average of the TRIX indicator, and due to this, it will lag behind the TRIX.A signal to place a buy order will occur when the TRIX crosses the signal line from below. In the same way, a signal to place a sell order will come up when the TRIX crosses the signal line from above. This is applicable in both trending and ranging markets.In trending markets, a signal line cross will indicate an end of the price retracement, and the main trend will resume. In ranging markets, a signal line confirms that resistance and support zones have been upheld in the market.
Divergences
Traders can use the Triple Exponential Average can to identify when important turning points can happen in the market. They can achieve this by looking at divergences. Divergences happen when the price is moving in the opposite direction as the TRIX indicator.When price makes higher highs but the TRIX makes lower highs, it means that the up-trend is weakening, and a bearish reversal is about to form. When the price makes lower lows, but the TRIX makes higher lows, it means that a bullish reversal is about to happen. Bullish and bearish divergences happen when the security and the indicator do not confirm themselves. A bullish divergence can happen when the security makes a lower low, but the indicator forms a higher low. This higher low means less downside momentum that may foreshadow a bullish reversal. A bearish divergence happens when the commodity makes a higher low, but the indicator forms a lower high. This lower high indicates weak upside momentum that can foreshadow a bearish reversal sometimes. Bearish divergences do not work well in strong uptrends. Even though momentum appears to be weakening due to the indicator is making lower highs, momentum still has a bullish bias as long as it is above its centerline.When bullish and bearish divergences work, they work very well. The secret is to separate the bad signals from the good signals.

Ratio-Adjusted McClellan Summation Index RASI NASIRatio-Adjusted McClellan Summation Index (RASI NASI)
In Book "The Complete Guide to Market Breadth Indicators" Author Gregory L. Morris states
"It is the author’s opinion that the McClellan indicators, and in particular, the McClellan Summation Index, is the single best breadth indicator available. If you had to pick just one, this would be it."
What It Does: The Ratio-Adjusted McClellan Summation Index (RASI) is a market breadth indicator that tracks the cumulative strength of advancing versus declining issues for a user-selected exchange (NASDAQ, NYSE, or AMEX). Derived from the McClellan Oscillator, it calculates ratio-adjusted net advances, applies 19-day and 39-day EMAs, and sums the oscillator values to produce the RASI. This indicator helps traders assess market health, identify bullish or bearish trends, and detect potential reversals through divergences.
Key features:
Exchange Selection : Choose NASDAQ (USI:ADVN.NQ, USI:DECL.NQ), NYSE (USI:ADVN.NY, USI:DECL.NY), or AMEX (USI:ADVN.AM, USI:DECL.AM) data.
Trend-Based Coloring : RASI line displays user-defined colors (default: black for uptrend, red for downtrend) based on its direction.
Customizable Moving Average: Add a moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, or RMA) with user-defined length and color (default: EMA, 21, green).
Neutral Line at Zero: Marks the neutral level for trend interpretation.
Alerts: Six custom alert conditions for trend changes, MA crosses, and zero-line crosses.

IDX - 5UPThe UDX-5UP is a custom indicator designed to assist traders in identifying trends, entry and exit signals, and market reversal moments with greater accuracy. It combines price analysis, volume, and momentum (RSI) to provide clear buy ("Buy") and sell ("Sell") signals across any asset and timeframe, whether you're a scalper on the 5M chart or a swing trader on the 4H chart. Inspired by robust technical analysis strategies, the UDX-5UP is ideal for traders seeking a reliable tool to operate in volatile markets such as cryptocurrencies, forex, stocks, and futures.
Components of the UDX-5UP
The UDX-5UP consists of three main panels that work together to provide a comprehensive view of the market:
Main Panel (Price):
Pivot Supertrend: A dynamic line that changes color to indicate the trend. Green for an uptrend (look for buys), red for a downtrend (look for sells).
SMAs (Simple Moving Averages): Two SMAs (8 and 21 periods) to confirm the trend direction. When the SMA 8 crosses above the SMA 21, it’s a bullish signal; when it crosses below, it’s a bearish signal.
Entry/Exit Signals: "Buy" (green) and "Sell" (red) labels are plotted on the chart when entry or exit conditions are met.
Volume Panel:
Colored Volume Bars: Green bars indicate dominant buying volume, while red bars indicate dominant selling volume.
Volume Moving Average (MA 20): A blue line that helps identify whether the current volume is above or below the average, confirming the strength of the movement.
RSI Panel:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Calculated with a period of 14, with overbought (70) and oversold (30) lines to identify momentum extremes.
Divergences: The indicator detects divergences between the RSI and price, plotting signals for potential reversals.
How the UDX-5UP Works
The UDX-5UP uses a combination of rules to generate buy and sell signals:
Buy Signal ("Buy"):
The Pivot Supertrend changes from red to green.
The SMA 8 crosses above the SMA 21.
The volume is above the MA 20, with green bars (indicating buying pressure).
The RSI is rising and, ideally, below 70 (not overbought).
Example: On the 4H chart, the price of Tether (USDT) is at 0.05515. The Pivot Supertrend turns green, the SMA 8 crosses above the SMA 21, the volume shows green bars above the MA 20, and the RSI is at 46. The UDX-5UP plots a "Buy".
Sell Signal ("Sell"):
The Pivot Supertrend changes from green to red.
The SMA 8 crosses below the SMA 21.
The volume is above the MA 20, with red bars (indicating selling pressure).
The RSI is falling and, ideally, above 70 (overbought).
Example: On the 4H chart, the price of Tether rises to 0.05817. The Pivot Supertrend turns red, the SMA 8 crosses below the SMA 21, the volume shows red bars, and the RSI is above 70. The UDX-5UP plots a "Sell".
RSI Divergences:
The indicator identifies bullish divergences (price makes a lower low, but RSI makes a higher low) and bearish divergences (price makes a higher high, but RSI makes a lower high), plotting alerts for potential reversals.
Adjustable Settings
The UDX-5UP is highly customizable to suit your trading style:
Pivot Supertrend Period: Default is 2. Increase to 3 or 4 for more conservative signals (fewer false positives, but more lag).
SMA Periods: Default is 8 and 21. Adjust to 5 and 13 for smaller timeframes (e.g., 5M) or 13 and 34 for larger timeframes (e.g., 1D).
RSI Period: Default is 14. Reduce to 10 for greater sensitivity or increase to 20 for smoother signals.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: Default is 70/30. Adjust to 80/20 in volatile markets.
Display Panels: You can enable/disable the volume and RSI panels to simplify the chart.
How to Use the UDX-5UP
Identify the Trend:
Use the Pivot Supertrend and SMAs to determine the market direction. Uptrend: look for buys. Downtrend: look for sells.
Confirm with Volume and RSI:
For buys: Volume above the MA 20 with green bars, RSI rising and below 70.
For sells: Volume above the MA 20 with red bars, RSI falling and above 70.
Enter the Trade:
Enter a buy when the UDX-5UP plots a "Buy" and all conditions are aligned.
Enter a sell when the UDX-5UP plots a "Sell" and all conditions are aligned.
Plan the Exit:
Use Fibonacci levels or support/resistance on the price chart to set targets.
Exit the trade when the UDX-5UP plots an opposite signal ("Sell" after a buy, "Buy" after a sell).
Tips for Beginners
Start with Larger Timeframes: Use the 4H or 1D chart for more reliable signals and less noise.
Combine with Other Indicators: Use the UDX-5UP with tools like Fibonacci or the Candles RSI (another powerful indicator) to confirm signals.
Practice in Demo Mode: Test the indicator in a demo account before using real money.
Manage Risk: Always use a stop-loss and don’t risk more than 1-2% of your capital per trade.
Why Use the UDX-5UP?
Simplicity: Clear "Buy" and "Sell" signals make trading accessible even for beginners.
Versatility: Works on any asset (crypto, forex, stocks) and timeframe.
Multiple Confirmations: Combines price, volume, and momentum to reduce false signals.
Customizable: Adjust the settings to match your trading style.

On Balance Volume Oscillator of Trading Volume TrendOn Balance Volume Oscillator of Trading Volume Trend
Introduction
This indicator, the "On Balance Volume Oscillator of Trading Volume Trend," is a technical analysis tool designed to provide insights into market momentum and potential trend reversals by combining the On Balance Volume (OBV) and Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicators.
Calculation and Methodology
* OBV Calculation: The indicator first calculates the On Balance Volume, which is a cumulative total of the volume of up days minus the volume of down days. This provides a running tally of buying and selling pressure.
* RSI of OBV: The RSI is then applied to the OBV values to smooth the data and identify overbought or oversold conditions.
* Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): Two EMAs are calculated on the RSI of OBV. A shorter-term EMA (9-period in this case) and a longer-term EMA (100-period) are used to generate signals.
Interpretation and Usage
* EMA Crossovers: When the shorter-term EMA crosses above the longer-term EMA, it suggests increasing bullish momentum. Conversely, a downward crossover indicates weakening bullish momentum or increasing bearish pressure.
* RSI Divergences: Divergences between the price and the indicator can signal potential trend reversals. For example, if the price is making new highs but the indicator is failing to do so, it could be a bearish divergence.
* Overbought/Oversold Conditions: When the RSI of OBV is above 70, it suggests the market may be overbought and a potential correction could be imminent. Conversely, when it is below 30, it suggests the market may be oversold.
Visual Representation
The indicator is plotted on a chart with multiple lines and filled areas:
* Two EMAs: The shorter-term EMA and longer-term EMA are plotted to show the trend of the OBV.
* Filled Areas: The area between the two EMAs is filled with a color to indicate the strength of the trend. The color changes based on whether the shorter-term EMA is above or below the longer-term EMA.
* RSI Bands: Horizontal lines at 30 and 70 mark the overbought and oversold levels for the RSI of OBV.
Summary
The On Balance Volume Oscillator of Trading Volume Trend provides a comprehensive view of market momentum and can be a valuable tool for traders. By combining the OBV and RSI, this indicator helps identify potential trend reversals, overbought and oversold conditions, and the strength of the current trend.
Note: This indicator should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and fundamental analysis to make informed trading decisions.
[blackcat] L2 Double EMA Convergence and Diverence (DEMACD)Introduction:
The " L2 Double EMA Convergence and Divergence (DEMACD)" is a custom technical indicator designed for use in TradingView. It's based on the concept of Double Exponential Moving Averages (DEMA) and incorporates elements from the well-known Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). This guide aims to provide an understanding of its definition, history, calculation, operations, usage, input settings, and style.
1. Definition:
The DEMACD indicator is designed to detect changes in price trends using a modified approach of the traditional MACD, with a focus on reducing lag. It does this by comparing two DEMAs of different lengths, providing traders with signals of converging and diverging trends.
2. History:
The concept of DEMA was introduced by Patrick Mulloy in 1994 to reduce the lag inherent in traditional EMAs. MACD, developed by Gerald Appel in the 1970s, is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of a security's price. The DEMACD combines the quick response feature of DEMA with the reliable trend analysis of MACD.
3. Calculation Method:
DEMACD is calculated through several steps:
Smoothed price S is first computed as (3 * close + high + low + open) / 6.
DAYLINE is calculated as 2 * EMA(S, len_ema) - EMA(EMA(S, 5), len_ema).
The mainTrendLine is the EMA of the EMA of the closing price over len_dema periods.
DIF is the difference between the DAYLINE and mainTrendLine.
DEA is the EMA of DIF over len_smooth periods.
Finally, DEMACD is calculated as (DIF - DEA) * 2.
4. Basic Operations and Comparison with MACD:
DEMACD's key feature is its reduced lag compared to the traditional MACD. While MACD uses EMA, DEMACD uses DEMA, providing a faster and more accurate response to price changes. This makes it particularly useful in volatile market conditions where traditional MACD may lag.
5. Usage:
Similar to MACD, DEMACD is used for trend confirmation, crossover signals, and divergences:
Trend confirmation is observed when the DIF line is above or below the DEA line.
Crossover signals are generated when the DIF line crosses the DEA line.
Divergences between the DEMACD and price action can signal potential trend reversals.
6. Input Settings:
Users can configure the following settings in TradingView:
len_ema: Length of the EMA for DAYLINE.
len_dema: Length of the EMA for the main trend line.
len_smooth: Smoothing length for DEA.
Adjusting these settings allows traders to tailor the indicator to different trading styles and market conditions.
7. Style:
The DEMACD in TradingView is represented with different colors and line thicknesses:
DIF is plotted in red with a line thickness of 2.
DEA is plotted in gray, also with a line thickness of 2.
DEMACD histogram changes color based on its value relative to its previous value and zero.
Conclusion:
The " L2 Double EMA Convergence and Divergence (DEMACD)" is a versatile indicator that combines the rapid response of DEMA with the trend-following abilities of MACD. Its reduced lag makes it a valuable tool for traders looking for timely market signals. Proper understanding and application of its settings can enhance its effectiveness in various trading strategies.
