Syminfo [Epi]Hello! This little script tells you everything TradingView lets you access in a ticker's syminfo in Pine Script:
- description
- type: crypto, economic, forex, fund, futures, index, spread, stock
- tickerid, such as AMEX:BLOK
- prefix, such as AMEX
- Ticker, such as BLOK
- root: for derivatives such as futures contracts
- currency, such as USD
- base currency: returns 'BTC' for the ticker 'BTCUSD'
- mintick
- point value
- session: regular, extended
- timezone
Some surprises I found in my development:
- there are some more types than mentioned in the documentation,
- the tickerid takes on additional information if you adjust for dividends or show extended session,
- the prefix contains "_DL" additions depending on your data subscriptions, .e.g. "CME_MINI_DL:ES1!",
- with futures, TV will show session.regular both for the 'regular' and the 'electronic' session.
- Unfortunately, syminfo does not contain the 'sector', although TV has the information in the database (the sector is shown in the screener but not accessed in Pine Script).
I use this little utility in my development and hope it's useful for the community. I see such a great number of contributions from the community and would like to give back, even if it's not much.
Volume for NiftyBNTo see the volume of Nifty and Banknifty indices we often refer to their Futures chart. With the help of this script, you can directly plot the volume of Nifty Futures over the Nifty chart and Bank Nifty Futures over the Bank Nifty chart.
If the scrip entered is other than Nifty or Bank Nifty it will plot the default volume of that scrip.
vix_vx_regressionAn example of the linear regression library, showing the regression of VX futures on the VIX. The beta might help you weight VX futures when hedging SPX vega exposure. A VX future has point multiplier of 1000, whereas SPX options have a point multiplier of 100. Suppose the front month VX future has a beta of 0.6 and the front month SPX straddle has a vega of 8.5. Using these approximations, the VX future will underhedge the SPX straddle, since (0.6 * 1000) < (8.5 * 100). The position will have about 2.5 ($250) vega. Use the R^2 (coefficient of determination) to check how well the model fits the relationship between VX and VIX. The further from one this value, the less useful the model.
(Note that the mini, VXM futures also have a 100 point multiplier).
BankNifty - VWAP + StdDev Bands- By Default the script draws Daily VWAP for Bank Nifty based on Futures Volume or underlying Index Stocks based on user input
- Optionally one may Anchor it to Week/Month etc or anchor it from a particular Time.
- It also draws 3 Standard Deviation Bands from the VWAP based on User Input.
- Optionally draws Previous VWAP Close for and Bullish or Bearish Move.
- It works with NIFTY 50 as well but only using Futures Volume(Pine limitation to number of security calls) . Please change the Symbol and Futures Volume symbol to "NSE:NIFTY" and "NSE:NIFTY1!" NSE:BANKNIFTY NSE:NIFTY

1. Signal 1 = 26th March 2019 = SUPER LONG at $4,500 that saw a near $14,000 run up
2. Signal 2 = 18th & 24th June 2019 = SHORT at the second & final level $11,700 after repeated attempts & failure in the $13K range, the mini Echo Bitcoin Bull of 2019
3. Signal 3 = 17th December 2019 = LONG $6,900, Bitcoin rallied to Mid $10,500's
4. Signal 4 = 18th Feb 2020 = SUPER SHORT from $9,700's to a final extreme Low of $3,000, calling the CV-19 collapse
5. Signal 5 = 17th March 2020 = LONG from $5,400 no closure point yet
6. Signal 6 = 29th June 2020 = SUPER LONG reiterate from $10,700 no closure sell signal yet
7. Signal 7 = 17th May 2020 = LONG another accumulate LONG with no sell signal yet generated at Post H&S's low of $33,000
Note - This indicator only commences March 2019, as Bitcoin futures were a recent introduction and needed to settle for 6 months in both use and data, no signals were meaningful prior & data was light.
What is Provided. - Please note the need to also add the Hunt Bitcoin Historical Volatility Indicator for full understanding.
We provide 3 things with the 3 indicators.
'Insider' indications from Largest players in the futures market.
1. Bitcoin Macro Buy Signals.
a) The Bitcoin Commitment of Traders results see us focus solely on Largest 4 Short Open Interest & Largest 4 Long Open Interest aspects of the CoT Release data.
When the difference - is tight, a kind of pinch, these have been great Buy signals in Bitcoin.
We call this difference the Delta & When Delta is 5% or less Bitcoin is a Buy.
2. Bitcoin Macro Sells.
a) A sell signal is Triggered in Bitcoin at any point the Largest 4 short OI > or = to 70
3. AMPLIFIER Trade signals 'Super' Longs or Shorts -
Extreme low volatility events leads to highly impulsive & volatile subsequent moves, if either of 1 or 2 above occur, combined with extreme low volatility
a 'Super Long' or 'SUPER SELL' is generated. In the case of the short side, given Bitcoins general expansive and MACRO Bull trend since inception, we seek an additional component
that is an extreme differential/Delta reading between 4 biggest Longs & Shorts OI.
Namely CoT Delta also must be > 47.5%
We also have a Cautionary level, where it is not necessarily a good idea to accumulate Bitcon, as a better opportunity lower may avail itself, see conditions below.
So the required logic explicitly stated below for all Signals.
1. Long - Hunt Bitcoin CoT Delta < or = 5
2. SUPER Long - Hunt Bitcoin CoT Delta < or = 5; and 2 Day Historical Bitcoin Volatility = or < 20
3. Short - Largest 4 Sellers OI = or > 70
4. SUPER Short - Largest 4 Sellers OI = or > 70; AND..
Hunt Bitcoin CoT Delta = or > 47.5 AND 2 Day Historical BTC Volatility = or < 20
5. Caution - Largest 4 Sellers OI = or > 67.5 AND Hunt Bitcoin CoT Delta = or > 45
WARNING SEE Notes Below
Note 1 - = Largest 4 Open Interest Shorts
Note 2 - = Largest 4 Open Interest Longs
Note 3 - = Hunt Cot Delta = (Largest 4 sellers OI) -( Largest 4 Buyers OI)
Caution = Avoid new Bitcoin Accumulation Right Now, A sell signal might follow Enter on next Long
Note 4 - The Hunt Bitcoin COT Delta signal is a Largest 'Insider' Tracking tool based on a segment of Commitment of Traders data on Bitcoin Futures, released once a week on a Friday.
It is a Macro Timeframe signal , and should not be used for Day trading and Short Timeframe analysis , Entries may be optimised after a Hunt Bitcoin CoT Signal is generated by separate shorter Timeframe analysis.
Note 5 - The Historical Bitcoin Volatility is an additional 'Amplifier' component to the 'Hunt Bitcoin Cot Delta' Insider Signal
Note 6 - The Historical Bitcoin Volatility criteria varies by timeframe, the above levels are those applying on a Two Day TF Chart, select this custom timeframe in Trading View.
if additional criteria are met for LONG & SHORT insider signals, they may become 'Super Longs/Shorts', see conditions box above.

Bitcoin Binance Sentiment IndexThe divergence of the price between the futures and spot markets for perpetual contracts could be a gauge of sentiment on a traded cryptoasset.
Sentiment analysis could be used to improve the the predictive value of technical and fundamental analysis.
The price of the perpetual contract is divided by the spot price for Bitcoin on Binance and two simple moving averages of this ratio are plotted together. For graphical purposes, the ratio between the two prices has been multiplied by 100. The moving averages were chosen arbitrarily and can be changed. Values above 100 mean that the average price of the futures over the last x periods was above the spot price over the same period. Conversely, values below 100 mean that the mean price of the futures over the last x periods was below the spot price over the same period. The indicator has been created for a daily timeframe.
This indicator is clearly intended for educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

CBG Key Numbers v6Here is my opening range, key numbers indicator. It takes the Opening Range (5 minutes by default) and then plots the opening range and up to 7 extensions of that range above and below.
It's amazing how the OR is stamped up on the rest of the day's price movements.
2 strategies (at least) are to play the OR range breakout and to fade when price hits an extreme range.
You have total control over how you set up the various lines and colors.
If you start overlaying the trading day with the OR and it's extensions, you will see amazing patterns become clear. For example, the pump and reverse. This is where price pumps right out of the opening and then reverses later in the morning.
I have the opening price set to big circles as this is one of the most important reference points during the day.
Important: For some reason, the 9:30 am time Opening acts differently for equities and futures . For equities, you can set the time values to 0930. But for futures , to capture the Open at 9:30, you have to set the time values to start at 0830. I haven't been able to find a better solution but setting the times manually works. Make sure to set all the time values on the Options screen.
There is one more setting of interest. It is called IB Target Amount. This is a number above and below the opening range that I have observed price to hit whenever there's a breakout. This will allow you to predict a price target on breakouts. For SPY , I have found that price usually breaks out to at least 50 cents. On ES futures , it's 6 dollars. This can help you lock in 10% and 20% when trading options and is a great tool. That's why I have it so prominent in red. You will also see price return to this level during the day and act as support or resistance.
Please disregard the red and green shaded rectangles. They are my own support and resistance zones and TV wouldn't let me hide them from the picture. :-)
I mostly use this on a 5 minute chart but any timeframe will work.

This script was created by using Open Interest instead of Volume in the Market Facilitation Index.
Thus, it can make a difference in the Future and CFD Markets.
If your financial instrument is not from these markets, that is, if Open Interest is not used, you can choose Volume.
You can set "FUTURES" and "OTHERS" from the menu.
If you use the Open Interest (FUTURES) option in the menu on 1W bars and defined Future markets, it will not repaint.
This is the best use for Open Interests, as data is extracted from Quandl and CFTC COT reports are published once a week.
Color Change Rules :
In my version :
Green Bars = Green
Fade Bars = Orange
Fake Bars = Blue
Squat Bars = Red
To show the difference in the presentation, both the Futures option using Open Interest and the Others option using Volume were published to compare.
You can observe the difference.
Best regards.

Delay Estimatorthis script can be used to adjust one of the free realtime tickers (such as SPX500, NAS100) to "look" like one of the delayed futures tickers (such as ES1!, NQ1!). This basically allows us to get an estimate of the realtime futures ticker price.
it uses bollinger bands to adjust the volatility and offset of the realtime ticker
it also provides a decimator to reduce the price into ticks, since futures often use 4 ticks per point

Herrick Payoff IndexThe Herrick Payoff Index is designed to show the amount of money flowing into or out of a futures contract. The Index uses open interest during its calculations, therefore, the security being analyzed must contain open interest.
The Herrick Payoff Index was developed by John Herrick.When the Herrick Payoff Index is above zero, it shows that money is flowing into the futures contract (which is bullish). When the Index is below zero, it shows that money is flowing out of the futures contract (which is bearish).
The interpretation of the Herrick Payoff Index involves looking for divergences between the Index and prices.
AlphaTrend++ offset labelsAlphaTrend++
Overview
The AlphaTrend++ is an advanced Pine Script indicator designed to help traders identify buy and sell opportunities in trending and volatile markets. Building on trend-following principles, it uses a modified Average True Range (ATR) calculation combined with volume or momentum data to plot a dynamic trend line. The indicator overlays on the price chart, displaying a colored trend line, a filled trend zone, buy/sell signals, and optional stop-loss tick labels, making it ideal for day trading or swing trading, particularly in markets like futures (e.g., MES).
What It Does
This indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the direction and momentum of a custom trend line, filtered by optional time restrictions and signal frequency logic. The trend line adapts to price action and volatility, with a filled zone highlighting trend strength. Buy/sell signals are plotted as labels, and stop-loss distances are displayed in ticks (customizable for instruments like MES). The indicator supports standard chart types for realistic signal generation.
How It Works
The indicator employs the following components:
Trend Line Calculation: A dynamic trend line is calculated using ATR adjusted by a user-defined multiplier, combined with either Money Flow Index (MFI) or Relative Strength Index (RSI) depending on volume availability. The line tracks price movements, adjusting upward or downward based on trend direction and volatility.
Trend Zone: The area between the current trend line and its value two bars prior is filled, colored green for bullish trends (upward movement) or red for bearish trends (downward movement), providing a visual cue of trend strength.
Signal Generation: Buy signals occur when the trend line crosses above its value two bars ago, and sell signals occur when it crosses below, with optional filtering to reduce signal noise (based on bar timing logic). Signals can be restricted to a 9:00–15:00 UTC trading window.
Stop-Loss Ticks: For each signal, the indicator calculates the distance to the trend line (acting as a stop-loss level) in ticks, using a user-defined tick size (default 0.25 for MES). These are displayed as labels below/above the signal.
Time Filter: An optional filter limits signals to 9:00–15:00 UTC, aligning with active trading sessions like the US market open.
The indicator ensures compatibility with standard chart types (e.g., candlestick or bar charts) to avoid unrealistic results associated with non-standard types like Heikin Ashi or Renko.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to a candlestick or bar chart on TradingView.
Configure Settings:
Multiplier: Adjust the ATR multiplier (default 1.0) to control trend line sensitivity. Higher values widen the stop-loss distance.
Common Period: Set the ATR and MFI/RSI period (default 14) for trend calculations.
No Volume Data: Enable if volume data is unavailable (e.g., for certain forex pairs), switching from MFI to RSI.
Tick Size: Set the tick size for stop-loss calculations (default 0.25 for MES futures).
Show Buy/Sell Signals: Toggle signal labels (default enabled).
Show Stop Loss Ticks: Toggle stop-loss tick labels (default enabled).
Use Time Filter: Restrict signals to 9:00–15:00 UTC (default disabled).
Use Filtered Signals: Enable to reduce signal frequency using bar timing logic (default enabled).
Interpret Signals:
Buy Signal: A blue “BUY” label below the bar indicates a potential long entry (trend line crossover, passing filters).
Sell Signal: A red “SELL” label above the bar indicates a potential short entry (trend line crossunder, passing filters).
Trend Zone: Green fill suggests bullish momentum; red fill suggests bearish momentum.
Stop-Loss Ticks: Gray labels show the stop-loss distance in ticks, helping with risk management.
Monitor Context: Use the trend line and filled zone to confirm the market’s direction before acting on signals.
Unique Features
Adaptive Trend Line: Combines ATR with MFI or RSI to create a responsive trend line that adjusts to volatility and market conditions.
Tick-Based Stop-Loss: Displays stop-loss distances in ticks, customizable for specific instruments, aiding precise risk management.
Signal Filtering: Optional bar timing logic reduces false signals, improving reliability in choppy markets.
Trend Zone Visualization: The filled zone between trend line values enhances trend clarity, making it easier to assess momentum.
Time-Restricted Trading: Optional 9:00–15:00 UTC filter aligns signals with high-liquidity sessions.
Notes
Use on standard candlestick or bar charts to ensure accurate signals.
Test the indicator on a demo account to optimize settings for your market and timeframe.
Combine with other analysis (e.g., support/resistance, volume spikes) for better decision-making.
The indicator is not a standalone system; use it as part of a broader trading strategy.
Limitations
Signals may lag in highly volatile or low-liquidity markets due to ATR-based calculations.
The 9:00–15:00 UTC time filter may not suit all markets; disable it for 24-hour assets like forex or crypto.
Stop-loss tick calculations assume consistent tick sizes; verify compatibility with your instrument.
This indicator is designed for traders seeking a robust, trend-following tool with customizable risk management and signal filtering, optimized for active trading sessions.
This update enhances label customization, clarity, and signal usability while preserving all existing AlphaTrend++ logic. The goal is to improve readability during live trading and allow traders to personalize the visual footprint of entries and stop-loss levels.
Improvements
• Cleaner Label Placement
Labels now maintain consistent spacing from the candle, regardless of volatility or ATR expansion.
• Enhanced Visual Structure
BUY/SELL signals remain bold and clear, while SL ticks use a more compact and optional sizing scheme.
• Better User Control

Diff Price (Future - Spot)Diff Line (Future – Spot) plots a grid of spot-price levels derived from the current futures price.
It rounds the current futures price up to the nearest price block (e.g. every 25 points), then subtracts a user‑defined Diff (Future – Spot) to find the main spot level and draws that as the central line. Additional lines are plotted above and below at equal block distances, with labels showing both Future and Spot values (e.g. 4250 (4215)), plus a compact diff info box for quick reference.
