RVOL - R4RocketRelative volume or RVOL for short is an indicator that is used to measure how 'In Play' the stock is. Simply put, it helps to quantify how interested everybody is in the given stock - higher the value, higher the interest and hence higher is the probability for movement in the stock.
I have tried to create RVOL (Relative Volume ) Indicator as per the description that I read on SMB Capital blog. The blog is a great resource.
...................................................................................................................................................................................
How to use the indicator - The indicator is meant for INTRADAY ONLY.
The indicator has following inputs -
1. RVOL Period - Value from 3 to 14 (Default Value = 4)
This is used to calculate the average volume over the given period of days. e.g. average volume for the last 5 days, last 3 days, last 10 days etc. NOTE - If you use higher RVOL Period on smaller timeframes, the code will give an error. So I recommend using 4 or lower for 5 min timeframe. (Nothing will work on 1 min chart and you can experiment for other timeframes.)
2. RVOL Sectional - True / False (Default Value = False)
If you check this box then you will be able to calculate the RVOL for a particular session (or between particular sessions) in that trading day.
What do I mean by session?
Well I have divided the trading day into 6 (almost) equally spaced sessions in time, i.e. 6 hours and 15 mins (for NSE - India) of trading day is divided into 1 hr - 1st session, 1 hr - 2nd session, 1 hr - 3rd session, 1 hr - 4th session, 1 hr - 5th session, 1 hr and 15 min - 6th session.
Before using 3rd and 4th inputs of indicator, RVOL Sectional box MUST BE CHECKED FIRST.
3. RVOL From Session - 1 to 6 (Default Value = 1)
4. RVOL To Session - 1 to 6 (Default Value = 2)
Now if you select 2 in "RVOL From Session" input and 3 in "RVOL To Session" input, the indicator will calculate RVOL for the 2nd and 3rd hour of the trading day. If you select 3 in both the inputs, then the indicator will give RVOL for the 3rd hour of the trading day.
5. RVOL Trigger - 0.2 to 10 (Default Value = 2)
Filter to find days having RVOL above that value. The indicator turns green (or colour of your choice) when RVOL is more than "RVOL Trigger".
...................................................................................................................................................................................
Hope this indicator will add some value in your trading endeavor.

Ratio Chart with GMMA■About this indicator
This indicator divides the selected stocks by any stocks you specify and plots the result in a new pane.
At the same time, it plots the GMMA against the result of the division.
This allows you to see the relative chart and trend of the selected stock and the arbitrary stock.
Quote Symbol: Specify the denominator of the division. The default is TOPIX. Feel free to change it.
EMA Days: 5 to 30 days are indicated in green, and 75 to 200 days in red. Change the number of days and color freely.
Explanation of Effective Usage
It is recommended to enter an index for stocks specified in the Quote Symbol.
By entering the index, you can check the superiority of the selected issue and the index at a glance.
Example: By dividing AAPL by SP500, you can see on the chart whether AAPL is stronger or weaker relative to SP500.
(Similar concept to the Relative Strength Comparison RSC.)
At the same time, by plotting GMMA, you can confirm the trend of strength or weakness of the selected issue divided by the index. This is useful for swing trading and mid- to long-term trading.
The greater the distance between the short-term and long-term EMAs of the GMMA, the more the selected stocks outperform the index, and when the short-term and long-term EMAs cross, the trend ends and the stock underperforms the index.
■About the Chart
The screen below shows a chart plotted using this indicator.
For comparison with the regular chart, the upper screen shows only the GMMA plotted for the selected stocks.
From the red circle in the lower screen, a trend begins where the selected stocks outperform the index, and the trend ends at the blue circle.
When the trend ends, the selected stocks will underperform the index and it can be determined that it is more efficient to invest in another stock.

Volume-Based Candle ShadingThe Volume Shading indicator dynamically adjusts the color brightness of each price bar based on relative volume levels. It helps traders quickly identify whether a candle formed on low, average, or high volume without needing to reference a separate volume pane.
Candles are shaded dynamically as they form, so you can watch volume flow into them in real time. This indicator is designed to be as minimally intrusive as possible, allowing you to visualize volume levels without extra clutter on your charts.
The additional volume indicator in the preview above is there just for a point of reference to allow you to see how the shading on the bars correlates to the volume.
⸻
SETTINGS:
Bullish and bearish base colors — These serve as the midpoint (average volume) for shading.
Brightness mapping direction — Optionally invert the shading so that either high volume appears darker or lighter.
Volume smoothing length — Defines how many bars are averaged to determine what constitutes “normal” volume.
Candles with volume above average will appear darker or lighter depending on user preference, while those with average volume will be painted the chosen colors, giving an intuitive gradient that enhances volume awareness directly on the chart.
⸻
USES:
Confirming price action: Highlight when breakout candles or reversal bars occur with high relative volume, strengthening signal conviction.
Spotting low-volume moves: Identify candles that lack volume support, potentially signaling weak continuation or false breakouts.
Enhancing visual analysis: Overlay volume dynamics directly onto price bars, reducing screen clutter and aiding faster decision-making.
Custom visual workflows: Adapt the visual behavior of candles to your trading style by choosing color direction and base tones.
RS Alpha by The Noiseless TraderRS Alpha by The Noiseless Trader plots a clean, benchmark‑relative strength line for any symbol and (optionally) a mean line to assess trend and momentum in relative performance. It’s designed for uncluttered, professional RS analysis and works across any timeframe.
Compare any symbol vs a benchmark (default: NSE:NIFTY).
Optional log‑normalized RS for return‑aware comparisons.
Optional RS Mean with trend coloring (rising/falling).
Optional RS Trend zero‑line coloring based on short‑range slope.
Lightweight alerts for rising/falling RS mean.
Tip: Use RS to identify leaders (RS > 0 with rising mean) and laggards (RS < 0 with falling mean), then align setups with your price action rules.
Reading the indicator
Leadership: RS > 0 and RS Mean rising → outperformance vs benchmark.
Weakness: RS < 0 and RS Mean falling → underperformance vs benchmark.
Inflections: Watch RS crossing above/below its Mean for early shifts.
Zero‑line context: With RS Trend on, the zero line subtly reflects short‑term slope (green for positive, maroon for negative).
Alerts
Rising Strength – RS Mean turning/remaining upward.
Declining Strength – RS Mean turning/remaining downward.
(Use these as context; execute entries on your price‑action rules.)
Best practices
Pair RS with your trend/structure rules (e.g., higher highs + RS leadership).
For sectors/baskets, keep the Comparative Symbol consistent to rank peers.
Log‑normalized RS helps when comparing assets with very different volatilities or large base effects.
Test multiple length and Mean settings; 60 is a balanced default for swing/positional work.

Relative Range at Time/ Relative volatility / High−Low This script is designed to help you compare the size of the current price candle (the difference between the highest and lowest prices in a given time period) to the average size of the last several candles. It does this by calculating the average range of a certain number of previous candles (you can set how many with the "Length" input) and then dividing the current candle's range by this average. The result is plotted on the chart as a bar: if the current candle's range is larger than the average, the bar is green; if it's smaller, the bar is red. A horizontal line is also drawn at the value of 1, so you can easily see whether the current candle's range is above or below the average. If there’s an issue with the data, the script will show an error message to let you know.
RSI Bollinger Bands [DCAUT]█ RSI Bollinger Bands
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The RSI Bollinger Bands indicator represents a meaningful advancement in momentum analysis by combining two proven technical tools: the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands. This combination addresses a significant limitation in traditional RSI analysis - the use of fixed overbought/oversold thresholds (typically 70/30) that fail to adapt to changing market volatility conditions.
Core Innovation:
Rather than relying on static threshold levels, this indicator applies Bollinger Bands statistical analysis directly to RSI values, creating dynamic zones that automatically adjust based on recent momentum volatility. This approach helps reduce false signals during low volatility periods while remaining sensitive to genuine extremes during high volatility conditions.
Key Enhancements Over Traditional RSI:
Dynamic Thresholds: Overbought/oversold zones adapt to market conditions automatically, eliminating the need for manual threshold adjustments across different instruments and timeframes
Volatility Context: Band width provides immediate visual feedback about momentum volatility, helping traders distinguish between stable trends and erratic movements
Reduced False Signals: During ranging markets, narrower bands filter out minor RSI fluctuations that would trigger traditional fixed-threshold signals
Breakout Preparation: Band squeeze patterns (similar to price-based BB) signal potential momentum regime changes before they occur
Self-Referencing Analysis: By measuring RSI against its own statistical behavior rather than arbitrary levels, the indicator provides more relevant context
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Two-Stage Calculation Process:
Stage 1: RSI Calculation
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
where RS = Average Gain / Average Loss over specified period
The RSI normalizes price momentum into a bounded 0-100 scale, making it ideal for statistical band analysis.
Stage 2: Bollinger Bands on RSI
Basis = MA(RSI, BB Length)
Upper Band = Basis + (StdDev(RSI, BB Length) × Multiplier)
Lower Band = Basis - (StdDev(RSI, BB Length) × Multiplier)
Band Width = Upper Band - Lower Band
The Bollinger Bands measure RSI's standard deviation from its own moving average, creating statistically-derived dynamic zones.
Statistical Interpretation:
Under normal distribution assumptions with default 2.0 multiplier, approximately 95% of RSI values should fall within the bands
Band touches represent statistically significant momentum extremes relative to recent behavior
Band width expansion indicates increasing momentum volatility (strengthening trend or increasing uncertainty)
Band width contraction signals momentum consolidation and potential regime change preparation
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Visual Color Signals:
This indicator features dynamic color fills that highlight extreme momentum conditions:
Green Fill (Above Upper Band):
Appears when RSI breaks above the upper band, indicating exceptionally strong bullish momentum
Represents dynamic overbought zone - not necessarily a reversal signal but a warning of extreme conditions
In strong uptrends, green fills can persist as RSI "rides the band" - this indicates sustained momentum strength
Exit of green zone (RSI falling back below upper band) often signals initial momentum weakening
Red Fill (Below Lower Band):
Appears when RSI breaks below the lower band, indicating exceptionally weak bearish momentum
Represents dynamic oversold zone - potential reversal or continuation signal depending on trend context
In strong downtrends, red fills can persist as RSI "rides the band" - this indicates sustained selling pressure
Exit of red zone (RSI rising back above lower band) often signals initial momentum recovery
Position-Based Signals:
Upper Band Interactions:
RSI Touching Upper Band: Dynamic overbought condition - momentum is extremely strong relative to recent volatility, potential exhaustion or continuation depending on trend context
RSI Riding Upper Band: Sustained strong momentum, often seen in powerful trends, not necessarily an immediate reversal signal but warrants monitoring for exhaustion
RSI Crossing Below Upper Band: Initial momentum weakening signal, particularly significant if accompanied by price divergence
Lower Band Interactions:
RSI Touching Lower Band: Dynamic oversold condition - momentum is extremely weak relative to recent volatility, potential reversal or continuation of downtrend
RSI Riding Lower Band: Sustained weak momentum, common in strong downtrends, monitor for potential exhaustion
RSI Crossing Above Lower Band: Initial momentum strengthening signal, early indication of potential reversal or consolidation
Basis Line Signals:
RSI Above Basis: Bullish momentum regime - upward pressure dominant
RSI Below Basis: Bearish momentum regime - downward pressure dominant
Basis Crossovers: Momentum regime shifts, more significant when accompanied by band width changes
RSI Oscillating Around Basis: Balanced momentum, often indicates ranging market conditions
Volatility-Based Signals:
Band Width Patterns:
Narrow Bands (Squeeze): Momentum volatility compression, often precedes significant directional moves, similar to price coiling patterns
Expanding Bands: Increasing momentum volatility, indicates trend acceleration or growing uncertainty
Narrowest Band in 100 Bars: Extreme compression alert, high probability of upcoming volatility expansion
Advanced Pattern Recognition:
Divergence Analysis:
Bullish Divergence: Price makes lower lows while RSI touches or stays above previous lower band touch, suggests downward momentum weakening
Bearish Divergence: Price makes higher highs while RSI touches or stays below previous upper band touch, suggests upward momentum weakening
Hidden Bullish: Price makes higher lows while RSI makes lower lows at the lower band, indicates strong underlying bullish momentum
Hidden Bearish: Price makes lower highs while RSI makes higher highs at the upper band, indicates strong underlying bearish momentum
Band Walk Patterns:
Upper Band Walk: RSI consistently touching or staying near upper band indicates exceptionally strong trend, wait for clear break below basis before considering reversal
Lower Band Walk: RSI consistently at lower band signals very weak momentum, requires break above basis for reversal confirmation
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Strategy 1: Mean Reversion Trading
Setup Conditions:
Market Type: Ranging or choppy markets with no clear directional trend
Timeframe: Works best on lower timeframes (5m-1H) or during consolidation phases
Band Characteristic: Normal to narrow band width
Entry Rules:
Long Entry: RSI touches or crosses below lower band, wait for RSI to start rising back toward basis before entry
Short Entry: RSI touches or crosses above upper band, wait for RSI to start falling back toward basis before entry
Confirmation: Use price action confirmation (candlestick reversal patterns) at band touches
Exit Rules:
Target: RSI returns to basis line or opposite band
Stop Loss: Fixed percentage or below recent swing low/high
Time Stop: Exit if position not profitable within expected timeframe
Strategy 2: Trend Continuation Trading
Setup Conditions:
Market Type: Clear trending market with higher highs/lower lows
Timeframe: Medium to higher timeframes (1H-Daily)
Band Characteristic: Expanding or wide bands indicating strong momentum
Entry Rules:
Long Entry in Uptrend: Wait for RSI to pull back to basis line or slightly below, enter when RSI starts rising again
Short Entry in Downtrend: Wait for RSI to rally to basis line or slightly above, enter when RSI starts falling again
Avoid Counter-Trend: Do not fade RSI at bands during strong trends (band walk patterns)
Exit Rules:
Trailing Stop: Move stop to break-even when RSI reaches opposite band
Trend Break: Exit when RSI crosses basis against trend direction with conviction
Band Squeeze: Reduce position size when bands start narrowing significantly
Strategy 3: Breakout Preparation
Setup Conditions:
Market Type: Consolidating market after significant move or at key technical levels
Timeframe: Any timeframe, but longer timeframes provide more reliable breakouts
Band Characteristic: Narrowest band width in recent 100 bars (squeeze alert)
Preparation Phase:
Identify band squeeze condition (bands at multi-period narrowest point)
Monitor price action for consolidation patterns (triangles, rectangles, flags)
Prepare bracket orders for both directions
Wait for band expansion to begin
Entry Execution:
Breakout Confirmation: Enter in direction of RSI band breakout (RSI breaks above upper band or below lower band)
Price Confirmation: Ensure price also breaks corresponding technical level
Volume Confirmation: Look for volume expansion supporting the breakout
Risk Management:
Stop Loss: Place beyond consolidation pattern opposite extreme
Position Sizing: Use smaller size due to false breakout risk
Quick Exit: Exit immediately if RSI returns inside bands within 1-3 bars
Strategy 4: Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Timeframe Selection:
Higher Timeframe: Daily or 4H for trend context
Trading Timeframe: 1H or 15m for entry signals
Confirmation Timeframe: 5m or 1m for precise entry timing
Analysis Process:
Trend Identification: Check higher timeframe RSI position relative to bands, trade only in direction of higher timeframe momentum
Setup Formation: Wait for trading timeframe RSI to show pullback to basis in trending direction
Entry Timing: Use confirmation timeframe RSI band touch or crossover for precise entry
Alignment Confirmation: All timeframes should show RSI moving in same direction for highest probability setups

WMA: Weighted average for basis line balances recent emphasis with historical context, middle ground between SMA and EMA responsiveness
Advanced Options: Full access to 25+ moving average types for basis calculation, including HMA (reduced lag), DEMA/TEMA (enhanced responsiveness), KAMA/FRAMA (adaptive to volatility changes)
Selection Guide: SMA for standard Bollinger Bands behavior and backtesting consistency, EMA for faster band adaptation in dynamic markets, matching RSI MA type creates unified smoothing behavior
BB Multiplier Parameter:
Conservative (1.5-1.8): Tighter bands resulting in more frequent touches, useful in low volatility environments, higher signal frequency but potentially more false signals
Standard (2.0): Default setting representing approximately 95% confidence interval under normal distribution, widely accepted statistical threshold
Aggressive (2.5-3.0): Wider bands capturing only extreme momentum conditions, fewer but potentially more significant signals, reduces false signals in high volatility
Adaptive Approach: Consider adjusting multiplier based on instrument characteristics, lower multiplier for stable instruments, higher for volatile instruments
Parameter Optimization Workflow:
Start with default parameters (RSI:14, BB:20, Mult:2.0)
Test across representative sample period including different market regimes
Adjust RSI length based on desired responsiveness vs stability tradeoff
Tune BB length to match your typical holding period
Modify multiplier to achieve desired signal frequency
Validate on out-of-sample data to avoid overfitting
Document optimal parameters for different instruments and timeframes
Reference Levels Display:
Enabled (Default): Shows traditional 30/50/70 levels for comparison with dynamic bands, helps visualize the adaptive advantage
Disabled: Cleaner chart focusing purely on dynamic zones, reduces visual clutter for experienced users
Educational Value: Keeping reference levels visible helps understand how dynamic bands differ from fixed thresholds across varying market conditions
📈 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
Comparison with Traditional RSI:
Fixed Threshold RSI Limitations:
In ranging low-volatility markets: RSI rarely reaches 70/30, missing tradable extremes
In trending high-volatility markets: RSI frequently breaks through 70/30, generating excessive false reversal signals
Across different instruments: Same thresholds applied to volatile crypto and stable forex pairs produce inconsistent results
Threshold Adjustment Problem: Manually changing thresholds for different conditions is subjective and lagging
RSI Bollinger Bands Advantages:
Automatic Adaptation: Bands adjust to current volatility regime without manual intervention
Consistent Logic: Same statistical approach works across different instruments and timeframes
Reduced False Signals: Band width filtering helps distinguish meaningful extremes from noise
Additional Information: Band width provides volatility context missing in standard RSI
Objective Extremes: Statistical basis (standard deviations) provides objective extreme definition
Comparison with Price-Based Bollinger Bands:
Price BB Characteristics:
Measures absolute price volatility
Affected by large price gaps and outliers
Band position relative to price not normalized
Difficult to compare across different price scales
RSI BB Advantages:
Normalized Scale: RSI's 0-100 bounds make band interpretation consistent across all instruments
Momentum Focus: Directly measures momentum extremes rather than price extremes
Reduced Gap Impact: RSI calculation smooths price gaps impact on band calculations
Comparable Analysis: Same RSI BB appearance across stocks, forex, crypto enables consistent strategy application
Performance Characteristics:
Signal Quality:
Higher Signal-to-Noise Ratio: Dynamic bands help filter RSI oscillations that don't represent meaningful extremes
Context-Aware Alerts: Band width provides volatility context helping traders adjust position sizing and stop placement
Reduced Whipsaws: During consolidations, narrower bands prevent premature signals from minor RSI movements
Responsiveness:
Adaptive Lag: Band calculation introduces some lag, but this lag is adaptive to current conditions rather than fixed
Faster Than Manual Adjustment: Automatic band adjustment is faster than trader's ability to manually modify thresholds
Balanced Approach: Combines RSI's inherent momentum lag with BB's statistical smoothing for stable yet responsive signals
Versatility:
Multi-Strategy Application: Supports both mean reversion (ranging markets) and trend continuation (trending markets) approaches
Universal Instrument Coverage: Works effectively across equities, forex, commodities, cryptocurrencies without parameter changes
Timeframe Agnostic: Same interpretation applies from 1-minute charts to monthly charts
Limitations and Considerations:
Known Limitations:
Dual Lag Effect: Combines RSI's momentum lag with BB's statistical lag, making it less suitable for very short-term scalping
Requires Volatility History: Needs sufficient bars for BB calculation, less effective immediately after major regime changes
Statistical Assumptions: Assumes RSI values are somewhat normally distributed, extreme trending conditions may violate this
Not a Standalone System: Like all indicators, should be combined with price action analysis and risk management
Optimal Use Cases:
Best for swing trading and position trading timeframes
Most effective in markets with alternating volatility regimes
Ideal for traders who use multiple instruments and timeframes
Suitable for systematic trading approaches requiring consistent logic
Suboptimal Conditions:
Very low timeframes (< 5 minutes) where lag becomes problematic
Instruments with extreme volatility spikes (gap-prone markets)
Markets in strong persistent trends where mean reversion rarely occurs
Periods immediately following major structural changes (new trading regime)
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes to help traders understand the interaction between momentum measurement and statistical volatility bands. The RSI Bollinger Bands has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions.
Important Considerations:
No Predictive Guarantee: Past band touches and patterns do not guarantee future price behavior
Market Regime Dependency: Indicator performance varies significantly between trending and ranging market conditions
Complementary Analysis Required: Should be used alongside price action, support/resistance levels, and fundamental analysis
Risk Management Essential: Always use proper position sizing, stop losses, and risk controls regardless of signal quality
Parameter Sensitivity: Different instruments and timeframes may require parameter optimization for optimal results
Continuous Monitoring: Band characteristics change with market conditions, requiring ongoing assessment
Recommended Supporting Analysis:
Price structure analysis (support/resistance, trend lines)
Volume confirmation for breakout signals
Multiple timeframe alignment
Market context awareness (news events, session times)
Correlation analysis with related instruments
The indicator aims to provide adaptive momentum analysis that adjusts to changing market volatility, but traders must apply sound judgment, proper risk management, and comprehensive market analysis in their decision-making process.
RSI Donchian Channel [DCAUT]█ RSI Donchian Channel
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The RSI Donchian Channel represents an important synthesis of two complementary analytical frameworks: momentum oscillators and breakout detection systems. This indicator addresses a common limitation in traditional RSI analysis by replacing fixed overbought/oversold thresholds with adaptive zones derived from historical RSI extremes.
Key Enhancement:
Traditional RSI analysis relies on static threshold levels (typically 30/70), which may not adequately reflect changing market volatility regimes. This indicator adapts the reference zones dynamically based on the actual RSI behavior over the lookback period, helping traders identify meaningful momentum extremes relative to recent price action rather than arbitrary fixed levels.
The implementation combines the proven momentum measurement capabilities of RSI with Donchian Channel's breakout detection methodology, creating a framework that identifies both momentum exhaustion points and potential continuation signals through the same analytical lens.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Core Calculation Process:
Step 1: RSI Calculation
The Relative Strength Index measures momentum by comparing the magnitude of recent gains to recent losses:
Calculate price changes between consecutive periods
Separate positive changes (gains) from negative changes (losses)
Apply selected smoothing method (RMA standard, also supports SMA, EMA, WMA) to both gain and loss series
Compute Relative Strength (RS) as the ratio of smoothed gains to smoothed losses
Transform RS into bounded 0-100 scale using the formula: RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
Step 2: Donchian Channel Application
The Donchian Channel identifies the highest and lowest RSI values within the specified lookback period:
Upper Channel: Highest RSI value over the lookback period, represents the recent momentum peak
Lower Channel: Lowest RSI value over the lookback period, represents the recent momentum trough
Middle Channel (Basis): Average of upper and lower channels, serves as equilibrium reference
Channel Width Dynamics:
The distance between upper and lower channels reflects RSI volatility. Wide channels indicate high momentum variability, while narrow channels suggest momentum consolidation and potential breakout preparation. The indicator monitors channel width over a 100-period window to identify squeeze conditions that often precede significant momentum shifts.
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Primary Signal Categories:
Breakout Signals:
Upper Breakout: RSI crosses above the upper channel, indicates momentum reaching new relative highs and potential trend continuation, particularly significant when accompanied by price confirmation
Lower Breakout: RSI crosses below the lower channel, suggests momentum reaching new relative lows and potential trend exhaustion or reversal setup
Breakout strength is enhanced when the channel is narrow prior to the breakout, indicating a transition from consolidation to directional movement
Mean Reversion Signals:
Upper Touch Without Breakout: RSI reaches the upper channel but fails to break through, may indicate momentum exhaustion and potential reversal opportunity
Lower Touch Without Breakout: RSI reaches the lower channel without breakdown, suggests potential bounce as momentum reaches oversold extremes
Return to Basis: RSI moving back toward the middle channel after touching extremes signals momentum normalization
Trend Strength Assessment:
Sustained Upper Channel Riding: RSI consistently remains near or above the upper channel during strong uptrends, indicates persistent bullish momentum
Sustained Lower Channel Riding: RSI stays near or below the lower channel during strong downtrends, reflects persistent bearish pressure
Basis Line Position: RSI position relative to the middle channel helps identify the prevailing momentum bias
Channel Compression Patterns:
Squeeze Detection: Channel width narrowing to 100-period lows indicates momentum consolidation, often precedes significant directional moves
Expansion Phase: Channel widening after a squeeze confirms the initiation of a new momentum regime
Persistent Narrow Channels: Extended periods of tight channels suggest market indecision and accumulation/distribution phases
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Trend Continuation Strategy:
This approach focuses on identifying and trading momentum breakouts that confirm established trends:
Identify the prevailing price trend using higher timeframe analysis or trend-following indicators
Wait for RSI to break above the upper channel in uptrends (or below the lower channel in downtrends)
Enter positions in the direction of the breakout when price action confirms the momentum shift
Place protective stops below the recent swing low (long positions) or above swing high (short positions)
Target profit levels based on prior swing extremes or use trailing stops to capture extended moves
Exit when RSI crosses back through the basis line in the opposite direction
Mean Reversion Strategy:
This method capitalizes on momentum extremes and subsequent corrections toward equilibrium:
Monitor for RSI reaching the upper or lower channel boundaries
Look for rejection signals (price reversal patterns, volume divergence) when RSI touches the channels
Enter counter-trend positions when RSI begins moving back toward the basis line
Use the basis line as the initial profit target for mean reversion trades
Implement tight stops beyond the channel extremes to limit risk on failed reversals
Scale out of positions as RSI approaches the basis line and closes the position when RSI crosses the basis
Breakout Preparation Strategy:
This approach positions traders ahead of potential volatility expansion from consolidation phases:
Identify squeeze conditions when channel width reaches 100-period lows
Monitor price action for consolidation patterns (triangles, rectangles, flags) during the squeeze
Prepare conditional orders for breakouts in both directions from the consolidation
Enter positions when RSI breaks out of the narrow channel with expanding width
Use the channel width expansion as a confirmation signal for the breakout's validity
Manage risk with stops just inside the opposite channel boundary
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Strategy:
Combining RSI Donchian Channel analysis across multiple timeframes can improve signal reliability:
Identify the primary trend direction using a higher timeframe RSI Donchian Channel (e.g., daily or weekly)
Use a lower timeframe (e.g., 4-hour or hourly) to time precise entry points
Enter long positions when both timeframes show RSI above their respective basis lines
Enter short positions when both timeframes show RSI below their respective basis lines
Avoid trades when timeframes provide conflicting signals (e.g., higher timeframe below basis, lower timeframe above)
Exit when the higher timeframe RSI crosses its basis line in the opposite direction
Risk Management Guidelines:
Effective risk management is essential for all RSI Donchian Channel strategies:
Position Sizing: Calculate position sizes based on the distance between entry point and stop loss, limiting risk to 1-2% of capital per trade
Stop Loss Placement: For breakout trades, place stops just inside the opposite channel boundary; for mean reversion trades, use stops beyond the channel extremes
Profit Targets: Use the basis line as a minimum target for mean reversion trades; for trend trades, target prior swing extremes or use trailing stops
Channel Width Context: Increase position sizes during narrow channels (lower volatility) and reduce sizes during wide channels (higher volatility)
Correlation Awareness: Monitor correlations between traded instruments to avoid over-concentration in similar setups
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
RSI Source:
Defines the price data series used for RSI calculation:
Close (Default): Standard choice providing end-of-period momentum assessment, suitable for most trading styles and timeframes
High-Low Average (HL2): Reduces the impact of closing auction dynamics, useful for markets with significant end-of-day volatility
High-Low-Close Average (HLC3): Provides a more balanced view incorporating the entire period's range
Open-High-Low-Close Average (OHLC4): Offers the most comprehensive price representation, helpful for identifying overall period sentiment
Strategy Consideration: Use Close for end-of-period signals, HL2 or HLC3 for intraday volatility reduction, OHLC4 for capturing full period dynamics
RSI Length:
Controls the number of periods used for RSI calculation:
Short Periods (5-9): Highly responsive to recent price changes, produces more frequent signals with increased false signal risk, suitable for short-term trading and volatile markets
Standard Period (14): Widely accepted default balancing responsiveness with stability, appropriate for swing trading and intermediate-term analysis
Long Periods (21-28): Produces smoother RSI with fewer signals but more reliable trend identification, better for position trading and reducing noise in choppy markets
Optimization Approach: Test different lengths against historical data for your specific market and timeframe, consider using longer periods in ranging markets and shorter periods in trending markets
RSI MA Type:
Determines the smoothing method applied to price changes in RSI calculation:
RMA (Relative Moving Average - Default): Wilder's original smoothing method providing stable momentum measurement with gradual response to changes, maintains consistency with classical RSI interpretation
SMA (Simple Moving Average): Treats all periods equally, responds more quickly to changes than RMA but may produce more whipsaws in volatile conditions
EMA (Exponential Moving Average): Weights recent periods more heavily, increases responsiveness at the cost of potential noise, suitable for traders prioritizing early signal generation
WMA (Weighted Moving Average): Applies linear weighting favoring recent data, offers a middle ground between SMA and EMA responsiveness
Selection Guidance: Maintain RMA for consistency with traditional RSI analysis, use EMA or WMA for more responsive signals in fast-moving markets, apply SMA for maximum simplicity and transparency
DC Length:
Specifies the lookback period for Donchian Channel calculation on RSI values:
Short Periods (10-14): Creates tight channels that adapt quickly to changing momentum conditions, generates more frequent trading signals but increases sensitivity to short-term RSI fluctuations
Standard Period (20): Balances channel responsiveness with stability, aligns with traditional Bollinger Bands and moving average periods, suitable for most trading styles
Long Periods (30-50): Produces wider, more stable channels that better represent sustained momentum extremes, reduces signal frequency while improving reliability, appropriate for position traders and higher timeframes
Calibration Strategy: Match DC length to your trading timeframe (shorter for day trading, longer for swing trading), test channel width behavior during different market regimes, consider using adaptive periods that adjust to volatility conditions
Market Adaptation: Use shorter DC lengths in trending markets to capture momentum shifts earlier, apply longer periods in ranging markets to filter noise and focus on significant extremes
Parameter Combination Recommendations:
Scalping/Day Trading: RSI Length 5-9, DC Length 10-14, EMA or WMA smoothing for maximum responsiveness
Swing Trading: RSI Length 14, DC Length 20, RMA smoothing for balanced analysis (default configuration)
Position Trading: RSI Length 21-28, DC Length 30-50, RMA or SMA smoothing for stable signals
High Volatility Markets: Longer RSI periods (21+) with standard DC length (20) to reduce noise
Low Volatility Markets: Standard RSI length (14) with shorter DC length (10-14) to capture subtle momentum shifts
📈 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
Adaptive Threshold Mechanism:
Unlike traditional RSI analysis with fixed 30/70 thresholds, this indicator's Donchian Channel approach provides several improvements:
Context-Aware Extremes: Overbought/oversold levels adjust automatically based on recent momentum behavior rather than arbitrary fixed values
Volatility Adaptation: In low volatility periods, channels narrow to reflect tighter momentum ranges; in high volatility, channels widen appropriately
Market Regime Recognition: The indicator implicitly adapts to different market conditions without manual threshold adjustments
False Signal Reduction: Adaptive channels help reduce premature reversal signals that often occur with fixed thresholds during strong trends
Signal Quality Characteristics:
The indicator's dual-purpose design provides distinct advantages for different trading objectives:
Breakout Trading: Channel boundaries offer clear, objective breakout levels that update dynamically, eliminating the ambiguity of when momentum becomes "too high" or "too low"
Mean Reversion: The basis line provides a natural profit target for reversion trades, representing the midpoint of recent momentum extremes
Trend Strength: Persistent channel boundary riding offers an objective measure of trend strength without additional indicators
Consolidation Detection: Channel width analysis provides early warning of potential volatility expansion from compression phases
Comparative Analysis:
When compared to traditional RSI implementations and other momentum frameworks:
vs. Fixed Threshold RSI: Provides market-adaptive reference levels rather than static values, helping to reduce false signals during trending markets where RSI can remain "overbought" or "oversold" for extended periods
vs. RSI Bollinger Bands: Offers clearer breakout signals and more intuitive extreme identification through actual high/low boundaries rather than statistical standard deviations
vs. Stochastic Oscillator: Maintains RSI's momentum measurement advantages (unbounded calculation avoiding scale compression) while adding the breakout detection capabilities of Donchian Channels
vs. Standard Donchian Channels: Applies breakout methodology to momentum space rather than price, providing earlier signals of potential trend changes before price breakouts occur
Performance Characteristics:
The indicator exhibits specific behavioral patterns across different market conditions:
Trending Markets: Excels at identifying momentum continuation through channel breakouts, RSI tends to ride one channel boundary during strong trends, providing trend confirmation
Ranging Markets: Channel width narrows during consolidation, offering early preparation signals for potential breakout trading opportunities
High Volatility: Channels widen to reflect increased momentum variability, automatically adjusting signal sensitivity to match market conditions
Low Volatility: Channels contract, making the indicator more sensitive to subtle momentum shifts that may be significant in calm market environments
Transition Periods: Channel squeezes often precede major trend changes, offering advance warning of potential regime shifts
Limitations and Considerations:
Users should be aware of certain operational characteristics:
Lookback Dependency: Channel boundaries depend entirely on the lookback period, meaning the indicator has no predictive element beyond identifying current momentum relative to recent history
Lag Characteristics: As with all moving average-based indicators, RSI calculation introduces lag, and channel boundaries update only as new extremes occur within the lookback window
Range-Bound Sensitivity: In extremely tight ranges, channels may become very narrow, potentially generating excessive signals from minor momentum fluctuations
Trending Persistence: During very strong trends, RSI may remain at channel extremes for extended periods, requiring patience for mean reversion setups or commitment to trend-following approaches
No Absolute Levels: Unlike traditional RSI, this indicator provides no fixed reference points (like 50), making it less suitable for strategies that depend on absolute momentum readings
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes to help traders understand momentum dynamics and identify potential trading opportunities. The RSI Donchian Channel has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions.
Important considerations:
Performance varies significantly across different market conditions, timeframes, and instruments
Historical signal patterns do not guarantee future results, as market behavior continuously evolves
Effective use requires understanding of both RSI momentum principles and Donchian Channel breakout concepts
Risk management practices (stop losses, position sizing, diversification) are essential for any trading application
Consider combining with additional analytical tools such as volume analysis, price action patterns, or trend indicators for confirmation
Backtest thoroughly on your specific instruments and timeframes before live trading implementation
Be aware that optimization on historical data may lead to curve-fitting and poor forward performance
The indicator performs best when used as part of a comprehensive trading methodology that incorporates multiple forms of market analysis, sound risk management, and realistic expectations about win rates and drawdowns.
RSI Candlestick Oscillator [LuxAlgo]The RSI Candlestick Oscillator displays a traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) as candlesticks. This indicator references OHLC data to locate each candlestick point relative to the current RSI Value, leading to a more accurate representation of the Open, High, Low, and Close price of each candlestick in the context of RSI.
In addition to the candlestick display, Divergences are detected from the RSI candlestick highs and lows and can be displayed over price on the chart.
🔶 USAGE
Translating candlesticks into the RSI oscillator is not a new concept and has been attempted many times before. This indicator stands out because of the specific method used to determine the candlestick OHLC values. When compared to other RSI Candlestick indicators, you will find that this indicator clearly and definitively correlates better to the on-chart price action.
Traditionally, the RSI indicator is simply one running value based on (typically) the close price of the chart. By introducing high, low, and open values into the oscillator, we can better gauge the specific price action throughout the intrabar movements.
Interactions with the RSI levels can now take multiple forms, whether it be a full-bodied breakthrough or simply a wick test. Both can provide a new analysis of price action alongside RSI.
An example of wick interactions and full-bodied interactions can be seen below.
As a result of the candlestick display, divergences become simpler to spot. Since the candlesticks on the RSI closely resemble the candlesticks on the chart, when looking for divergence between the chart and RSI, it is more obvious when the RSI and price are diverging.
The divergences in this indicator not only show on the RSI oscillator, but also overlay on the price chart for clearer understanding.
🔹 Filtering Divergence
With the candlesticks generating high and low RSI values, we can better sense divergences from price, since these points are generally going to be more dramatic than the (close) RSI value.
This indicator displays each type of divergence:
Bullish Divergence
Bearish Divergence
Hidden Bullish Divergence
Hidden Bearish Divergence
From these, we get many less-than-useful indications, since every single divergence from price is not necessarily of great importance.
The Divergence Filter disregards any divergence detected that does not extend outside the RSI upper or lower values.
This does not replace good judgment, but this filter can be helpful in focusing attention towards the extremes of RSI for potential reversal spotting from divergence.
🔶 DETAILS
In order to get the desired results for a display that resembles price action while following RSI, we must scale. The scaling is the most important part of this indicator.
To summarize the process:
Identify a range on Price and RSI
Consider them as equal to create a scaling factor
Use the scaling factor to locate RSI's "Price equivalent" Upper, Lower, & Mid on the Chart
Use those prices (specifically the RSI Mid) to check how far each OHLC value lies from it
Use those differences to translate the price back to the RSI Oscillator, pinning the OHLC values at their relative location to our anchor (RSI Mid)
🔹 RSI Channel
To better understand, and for your convenience, the indicator includes the option to display the RSI Channel on the chart. This channel helps to visualize where the scaled RSI values are relative to price.
If you analyze the RSI channel, you are likely to notice that the price movement throughout the channel matches the same movement witnessed in the RSI Oscillator below. This makes sense since they are the exact same thing displayed on different scales.
🔹 Scaling the Open
While the scaling method used is important, and provides a very close view of the real price bar's relative locations on the RSI oscillator… It is designed for a single purpose.
The scaling does NOT make the price candles display perfectly on the RSI oscillator.
The largest place where this is noticeable is with the opening of each candle.
For this reason, we have included a setting that modifies the opening of each RSI candle to be more accurate to the chart's price candles.
This setting positions the current bar's opening RSI candlestick value accurately relative to the price's open location to the previous closing price. As seen below.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 RSI Candles
RSI Length: Sets the Length for the RSI Oscillator.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: Sets the Overbought and Oversold levels for the RSI Oscillator.
Scale Open for Chart Accuracy: As described above, scales the open of each candlestick bar to more accurately portray the chart candlesticks.
🔹 Divergence
Show on Chart: Choose to display divergence line on the chart as well as on the Oscillator.
Divergence Length: Sets the pivot width for divergence detection. Normal Fractal Pivot Detection is used.
Divergence Style: Change color and line style for Regular and Hidden divergences, as well as toggle their display.
Divergence Filter: As described above, toggle on or off divergence filtering.
🔹 RSI Channel
Toggle: Display RSI Channel on Chart.

2. Three RSIs are created using different period inputs and the EMA output from the first step
3. These three RSIs are averaged to create the Synthetic, Smoothed Variety RSI
This indicator contains 7 different types of RSI:
RSX
Regular

Ehlers Smoothed
What is RSI?
RSI stands for Relative Strength Index . It is a technical indicator used to measure the strength or weakness of a financial instrument's price action.
The RSI is calculated based on the price movement of an asset over a specified period of time, typically 14 days, and is expressed on a scale of 0 to 100. The RSI is considered overbought when it is above 70 and oversold when it is below 30.
Traders and investors use the RSI to identify potential buy and sell signals. When the RSI indicates that an asset is oversold, it may be considered a buying opportunity, while an overbought RSI may signal that it is time to sell or take profits.
It's important to note that the RSI should not be used in isolation and should be used in conjunction with other technical and fundamental analysis tools to make informed trading decisions.
What is RSX?
Jurik RSX is a technical analysis indicator that is a variation of the Relative Strength Index Smoothed ( RSX ) indicator. It was developed by Mark Jurik and is designed to help traders identify trends and momentum in the market.
The Jurik RSX uses a combination of the RSX indicator and an adaptive moving average (AMA) to smooth out the price data and reduce the number of false signals. The adaptive moving average is designed to adjust the smoothing period based on the current market conditions, which makes the indicator more responsive to changes in price.
The Jurik RSX can be used to identify potential trend reversals and momentum shifts in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 50 indicating a bullish trend and values below 50 indicating a bearish trend . Traders can use these levels to make trading decisions, such as buying when the indicator crosses above 50 and selling when it crosses below 50.
The Jurik RSX is a more advanced version of the RSX indicator, and while it can be useful in identifying potential trade opportunities, it should not be used in isolation. It is best used in conjunction with other technical and fundamental analysis tools to make informed trading decisions.
What is Slow RSI?
Slow RSI is a variation of the traditional Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) indicator. It is a more smoothed version of the RSI and is designed to filter out some of the noise and short-term price fluctuations that can occur with the standard RSI .
The Slow RSI uses a longer period of time than the traditional RSI , typically 21 periods instead of 14. This longer period helps to smooth out the price data and makes the indicator less reactive to short-term price fluctuations.
Like the traditional RSI , the Slow RSI is used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 70 indicating overbought conditions and values below 30 indicating oversold conditions. Traders often use these levels as potential buy and sell signals.
The Slow RSI is a more conservative version of the RSI and can be useful in identifying longer-term trends in the market. However, it can also be slower to respond to changes in price, which may result in missed trading opportunities. Traders may choose to use a combination of both the Slow RSI and the traditional RSI to make informed trading decisions.
What is Rapid RSI?
Same as regular RSI but with a faster calculation method
What is Harris RSI?
Harris RSI is a technical analysis indicator that is a variation of the Relative Strength Index ( RSI ). It was developed by Larry Harris and is designed to help traders identify potential trend changes and momentum shifts in the market.
The Harris RSI uses a different calculation formula compared to the traditional RSI . It takes into account both the opening and closing prices of a financial instrument, as well as the high and low prices. The Harris RSI is also normalized to a range of 0 to 100, with values above 50 indicating a bullish trend and values below 50 indicating a bearish trend .
Like the traditional RSI , the Harris RSI is used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 70 indicating overbought conditions and values below 30 indicating oversold conditions. Traders often use these levels as potential buy and sell signals.
The Harris RSI is a more advanced version of the RSI and can be useful in identifying longer-term trends in the market. However, it can also generate more false signals than the standard RSI . Traders may choose to use a combination of both the Harris RSI and the traditional RSI to make informed trading decisions.
What is Cuttler RSI?
Cuttler RSI is a technical analysis indicator that is a variation of the Relative Strength Index ( RSI ). It was developed by Curt Cuttler and is designed to help traders identify potential trend changes and momentum shifts in the market.
The Cuttler RSI uses a different calculation formula compared to the traditional RSI . It takes into account the difference between the closing price of a financial instrument and the average of the high and low prices over a specified period of time. This difference is then normalized to a range of 0 to 100, with values above 50 indicating a bullish trend and values below 50 indicating a bearish trend .
Like the traditional RSI , the Cuttler RSI is used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 70 indicating overbought conditions and values below 30 indicating oversold conditions. Traders often use these levels as potential buy and sell signals.
The Cuttler RSI is a more advanced version of the RSI and can be useful in identifying longer-term trends in the market. However, it can also generate more false signals than the standard RSI . Traders may choose to use a combination of both the Cuttler RSI and the traditional RSI to make informed trading decisions.
What is Ehlers Smoothed RSI?
Ehlers smoothed RSI is a technical analysis indicator that is a variation of the Relative Strength Index ( RSI ). It was developed by John Ehlers and is designed to help traders identify potential trend changes and momentum shifts in the market.
The Ehlers smoothed RSI uses a different calculation formula compared to the traditional RSI . It uses a smoothing algorithm that is designed to reduce the noise and random fluctuations that can occur with the standard RSI . The smoothing algorithm is based on a concept called "digital signal processing" and is intended to improve the accuracy of the indicator.
Like the traditional RSI , the Ehlers smoothed RSI is used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the market. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with values above 70 indicating overbought conditions and values below 30 indicating oversold conditions. Traders often use these levels as potential buy and sell signals.
The Ehlers smoothed RSI can be useful in identifying longer-term trends and momentum shifts in the market. However, it can also generate more false signals than the standard RSI . Traders may choose to use a combination of both the Ehlers smoothed RSI and the traditional RSI to make informed trading decisions.

RVOL + Volume Z-Score (Textbook)This indicator is a relative-volume and “volume anomaly” dashboard designed to help you quickly spot when a ticker is actually in-play versus simply drifting on normal activity. It plots standard volume bars (colored by up/down candles) and overlays multiple optional smoothers of volume (SMA, LSMA/linear-regression MA, HMA, ALMA) so you can see whether participation is expanding or fading across different smoothing styles. It also calculates RVOL (current bar volume divided by the average volume over a user-defined lookback) and displays RVOL (and Z) in a small table for quick reference.
The core feature is a textbook volume z-score: Z=(V−SMA(V,N))/StDev(V,N)
This measures how far the current bar’s volume is from its recent average in standard-deviation units, making it easy to filter for genuinely unusual volume. The script plots mean + 1σ and mean + 2σ threshold bands and can highlight “anomaly” volume bars when Z exceeds your chosen σ thresholds (default 1σ for broader detection, with alerts available for 1σ/2σ). Use it as a participation filter: combine high RVOL / high Z with your price structure (key levels, VWAP, trend) to validate breakouts or identify high-conviction reversal/flush events.
RSI HTF Hardcoded (A/B Presets) + Regimes [CHE]RSI HTF Hardcoded (A/B Presets) + Regimes — Higher-timeframe RSI emulation with acceptance-based regime filter and on-chart diagnostics
Summary
This indicator emulates a higher-timeframe RSI on the current chart by resolving hardcoded “HTF-like” lengths from a time-bucket mapping, avoiding cross-timeframe requests. It computes RSI on a resolved length, smooths it with a resolved moving average, and derives a histogram-style difference (RSI minus its smoother). A four-state regime classifier is gated by a dead-band and an acceptance filter requiring consecutive bars before a regime is considered valid. An on-chart table reports the active preset, resolved mapping tag, resolved lengths, and the current filtered regime.
Pine version: v6
Overlay: false
Primary outputs: RSI line, SMA(RSI) line, RSI–SMA histogram columns, reference levels (30/50/70), regime-change alert, info table
Motivation
Cross-timeframe RSI implementations often rely on `request.security`, which can introduce repaint pathways and additional update latency. This design uses deterministic, on-series computation: it infers a coarse target bucket (or uses a forced bucket) and resolves lengths accordingly. The dead-band reduces noise at the decision boundaries (around RSI 50 and around the RSI–SMA difference), while the acceptance filter suppresses rapid flip-flops by requiring sustained agreement across bars.
Differences
Baseline: Standard RSI with a user-selected length on the same timeframe, or HTF RSI via cross-timeframe requests.
Key differences:
Hardcoded preset families and a bucket-based mapping to resolve “HTF-like” lengths on the current chart.
No `request.security`; all calculations run on the chart’s own series.
Regime classification uses two independent signals (RSI relative to 50 and RSI–SMA difference), gated by a configurable dead-band and an acceptance counter.
Always-on diagnostics via a persistent table (optional), showing preset, mapping tag, resolved lengths, and filtered regime.
Practical effect: The oscillator behaves like a slower, higher-timeframe variant with more stable regime transitions, at the cost of delayed recognition around sharp turns (by design).
How it works
1. Bucket selection: The script derives a coarse “target bucket” from the chart timeframe (Auto) or uses a user-forced bucket.
2. Length resolution: A chosen preset defines base lengths (RSI length and smoothing length). A bucket/timeframe mapping resolves a multiplier, producing final lengths used for RSI and smoothing.
3. Oscillator construction: RSI is computed on the resolved RSI length. A moving average of RSI is computed on the resolved smoothing length. The difference (RSI minus its smoother) is used as the histogram series.
4. Regime classification: Four regimes are defined from:
RSI relative to 50 (bullish above, bearish below), with a dead-band around 50
Difference relative to 0 (positive/negative), with a dead-band around 0
These two axes produce strong/weak bull and bear states, plus a neutral state when inside the dead-band(s).
5. Acceptance filter: The raw regime must persist for `n` consecutive bars before it becomes the filtered regime. The alert triggers when the filtered regime changes.
6. Diagnostics and visualization: Histogram columns change shade based on sign and whether the difference is rising/falling. The table displays preset, mapping tag, resolved lengths, and the filtered regime description.
Parameter Guide
Source — Input series for RSI — Default: Close — Smoother sources reduce noise but add lag.
Preset — Base lengths family — Default: A(14/14) — Switch presets to change RSI and smoothing responsiveness.
Target Bucket — Auto or forced bucket — Default: Auto — Force a bucket to lock behavior across chart timeframe changes.
Table X / Table Y — Table anchor — Default: right / top — Move to avoid covering content.
Table Size — Table text size — Default: normal — Increase for presentations, decrease for dense layouts.
Dark Mode — Table theme — Default: enabled — Match chart background for readability.
Show Table — Toggle diagnostics table — Default: enabled — Disable for a cleaner pane.
Epsilon (dead-band) — Noise gate for decisions — Default: 1.0 — Raise to reduce flips near boundaries; lower to react faster.
Acceptance bars (n) — Bars required to confirm a regime — Default: 3 — Higher reduces whipsaw; lower increases reactivity.
Reading
Histogram (RSI–SMA):
Above zero indicates RSI is above its smoother (positive momentum bias).
Below zero indicates RSI is below its smoother (negative momentum bias).
Darker/lighter shading indicates whether the difference is increasing or decreasing versus the previous bar.
RSI vs SMA(RSI):
RSI’s position relative to 50 provides broad directional bias.
RSI’s position relative to its smoother provides momentum confirmation/contra-signal.
Regimes:
Strong bull: RSI meaningfully above 50 and difference meaningfully above 0.
Weak bull: RSI above 50 but difference below 0 (pullback/transition).
Strong bear: RSI meaningfully below 50 and difference meaningfully below 0.
Weak bear: RSI below 50 but difference above 0 (pullback/transition).
Neutral: inside the dead-band(s).
Table:
Use it to validate the active preset, the mapping tag, the resolved lengths, and the filtered regime output.
Workflows
Trend confirmation:
Favor long bias when strong bull is active; favor short bias when strong bear is active.
Treat weak regimes as pullback/transition context rather than immediate reversals, especially with higher acceptance.
Structure + oscillator:
Combine regimes with swing structure, breakouts, or a baseline trend filter to avoid trading against dominant structure.
Use regime change alerts as a “state change” notification, not as a standalone entry.
Multi-asset consistency:
The bucket mapping helps keep a consistent “feel” across different chart timeframes without relying on external timeframe series.

No cross-timeframe requests are used; values can still evolve on the live bar and settle at close depending on your chart/update timing.
Warm-up requirements:
Large resolved lengths require sufficient history to seed RSI and smoothing. Expect a warm-up period after loading or switching symbols/timeframes.
Latency by design:
Dead-band and acceptance filtering reduce noise but can delay regime changes during sharp reversals.
Chart types:
Intended for standard time-based charts. Non-time-based or synthetic chart types (e.g., Heikin-Ashi, Renko, Kagi, Point-and-Figure, Range) can distort oscillator behavior and regime stability.
Tuning
Too many flips near decision boundaries:
Increase Epsilon and/or increase Acceptance bars.
Too sluggish in clean trends:
Reduce Acceptance bars by one, or choose a faster preset (shorter base lengths).
Too sensitive on lower timeframes:
Choose a slower preset (longer base lengths) or force a higher Target Bucket.
Want less clutter:
Disable the table and keep only the alert + plots you need.

Fusion MFI RSIHello fellas,
This superb indicator summons two monsters called Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Money Flow Index (MFI) and plays the Yu-Gi-Oh! card "Polymerization" to combine them.
Overview
The Fusion MFI RSI Indicator is an advanced analytical tool designed to provide a nuanced understanding of market dynamics by combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Money Flow Index (MFI). Enhanced with sophisticated smoothing techniques and the Inverse Fisher Transform (IFT), this indicator excels in identifying key market conditions such as overbought and oversold states, trends, and potential reversal points.
Key Features (Brief Overview)
Fusion of RSI and MFI: Integrates momentum and volume for a comprehensive market analysis.
Advanced Smoothing Techniques: Employs Hann Window, Jurik Moving Average (JMA), T3 Smoothing, and Super Smoother to refine signals.
Inverse Fisher Transform (IFT) Enhances the clarity and distinctiveness of indicator outputs.
Detailed Feature Analysis
Fusion of RSI and MFI
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr., the RSI measures the speed and magnitude of directional price movements. Wilder recommended using a 14-day period and identified overbought conditions above 70 and oversold conditions below 30.
MFI (Money Flow Index): Created by Gene Quong and Avrum Soudack, the MFI combines price and volume to measure trading pressure. It is typically calculated using a 14-day period, with over 80 considered overbought and under 20 as oversold.
Application in Fusion: By combining RSI and MFI, the indicator leverages RSI's sensitivity to price changes with MFI's volume-weighted confirmation, providing a robust analysis tool. This combination is particularly effective in confirming the strength behind price movements, making the signals more reliable.
Advanced Smoothing Techniques
Hann Window: Traditionally used to reduce the abrupt data discontinuities at the edges of a sample, it is applied here to smooth the price data.
Jurik Moving Average (JMA): Known for preserving the timing and smoothness of the data, JMA reduces market noise effectively without significant lag.
T3 Smoothing: Developed to respond quickly to market changes, T3 provides a smoother response to price fluctuations.
Super Smoother: Filters out high-frequency noise while retaining important trends.
Application in Fusion: These techniques are chosen to refine the output of the combined RSI and MFI values, ensuring the indicator remains responsive yet stable, providing clearer and more actionable signals.
Inverse Fisher Transform (IFT):
Developed by John Ehlers, the IFT transforms oscillator outputs to enhance the clarity of extreme values. This is particularly useful in this fusion indicator to make critical turning points more distinct and actionable.
Mathematical Calculations for the Fusion MFI RSI Indicator
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
The RSI is calculated using the following steps:
Average Gain and Average Loss: First, determine the average gain and average loss over the specified period (typically 14 days). This is done by summing all the gains and losses over the period and then dividing each by the period.
Average Gain = (Sum of Gains over the past 14 periods) / 14
Average Loss = (Sum of Losses over the past 14 periods) / 14
Relative Strength (RS): This is the ratio of average gain to average loss.
RS = Average Gain / Average Loss
RSI: Finally, the RSI is calculated using the RS value:
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
MFI (Money Flow Index)
The MFI is calculated using several steps that incorporate both price and volume:
Typical Price: Calculate the typical price for each period.
Typical Price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Raw Money Flow: Multiply the typical price by the volume for the period.
Raw Money Flow = Typical Price * Volume
Positive and Negative Money Flow: Compare the typical price of the current period to the previous period to determine if the money flow is positive or negative.
If today's Typical Price > Yesterday's Typical Price, then Positive Money Flow = Raw Money Flow; Negative Money Flow = 0
If today's Typical Price < Yesterday's Typical Price, then Negative Money Flow = Raw Money Flow; Positive Money Flow = 0
Money Flow Ratio: Calculate the ratio of the sum of Positive Money Flows to the sum of Negative Money Flows over the past 14 periods.
Money Flow Ratio = (Sum of Positive Money Flows over 14 periods) / (Sum of Negative Money Flows over 14 periods)
MFI: Finally, calculate the MFI using the Money Flow Ratio.
MFI = 100 - (100 / (1 + Money Flow Ratio))
Fusion of RSI and MFI
The final Fusion MFI RSI value could be calculated by averaging the IFT-transformed values of RSI and MFI, providing a single oscillator value that reflects both momentum and volume-weighted price action:
Fusion MFI RSI = (MFI weight * MFI) + (RSI weight * RSI)
Suggested Settings and Trading Rules
Original Usage
RSI: Wilder suggested buying when the RSI moves above 30 from below (enter long) and selling when the RSI moves below 70 from above (enter short). He recommended exiting long positions when the RSI reaches 70 or higher and exiting short positions when the RSI falls below 30.
MFI: Quong and Soudack recommended buying when the MFI is below 20 and starts rising (enter long), and selling when it is above 80 and starts declining (enter short). They suggested exiting long positions when the MFI reaches 80 or higher and exiting short positions when the MFI falls below 20.
Fusion Application
Settings: Use a 14-day period for this indicator's calculations to maintain consistency with the original settings suggested by the inventors.
Trading Rules:
Enter Long Signal: Consider entering a long position when both RSI and MFI are below their respective oversold levels and begin to rise. This indicates strong buying pressure supported by both price momentum and volume.
Exit Long Signal: Exit the long position when either RSI or MFI reaches its respective overbought threshold, suggesting a potential reversal or decrease in buying pressure.
Enter Short Signal: Consider entering a short position when both indicators are above their respective overbought levels and begin to decline, suggesting that selling pressure is mounting.
Exit Short Signal: Exit the short position when either RSI or MFI falls below its respective oversold threshold, indicating diminishing selling pressure and a potential upward reversal.

PresentTrend RMI Synergy - Strategy [presentTrading] █ Introduction and How it is Different
The "PresentTrend RMI Synergy Strategy" is the combined power of the Relative Momentum Index (RMI) and a custom presentTrend indicator. This strategy introduces a multifaceted approach, integrating momentum analysis with trend direction to offer traders a more nuanced and responsive trading mechanism.
BTCUSD 6h L/S Performance
Local
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The "PresentTrend RMI Synergy Strategy" intricately combines the Relative Momentum Index (RMI) and a custom SuperTrend indicator to create a powerful tool for traders.
🔶 Relative Momentum Index (RMI)
The RMI is a variation of the Relative Strength Index (RSI), but instead of using price closes against itself, it measures the momentum of up and down movements in price relative to previous prices over a given period. The RMI for a period length `N` is calculated as follows:
RMI = 100 - 100/ (1 + U/D)
where:
- `U` is the average upward price change over `N` periods,
- `D` is the average downward price change over `N` periods.
The RMI oscillates between 0 and 100, with higher values indicating stronger upward momentum and lower values suggesting stronger downward momentum.
RMI = 21
RMI = 42
For more information - RMI Trend Sync - Strategy :
🔶 presentTrend Indicator
The presentTrend indicator combines the Average True Range (ATR) with a moving average to determine trend direction and dynamic support or resistance levels. The presentTrend for a period length `M` and a multiplier `F` is defined as:
- Upper Band: MA + (ATR x F)
- Lower Band: MA - (ATR x F)
where:
- `MA` is the moving average of the close price over `M` periods,
- `ATR` is the Average True Range over the same period,
- `F` is the multiplier to adjust the sensitivity.
The trend direction switches when the price crosses the presentTrend bands, signaling potential entry or exit points.
presentTrend length = 3
presentTrend length = 10
For more information - PresentTrend - Strategy :
🔶 Strategy Logic
Entry Conditions:
- Long Entry: Triggered when the RMI exceeds a threshold, say 60, indicating a strong bullish momentum, and when the price is above the presentTrend, confirming an uptrend.
- Short Entry: Occurs when the RMI drops below a threshold, say 40, showing strong bearish momentum, and the price is below the present trend, indicating a downtrend.
Exit Conditions with Dynamic Trailing Stop:
- Long Exit: Initiated when the price crosses below the lower presentTrend band or when the RMI falls back towards a neutral level, suggesting a weakening of the bullish momentum.
- Short Exit: Executed when the price crosses above the upper presentTrend band or when the RMI rises towards a neutral level, indicating a reduction in bearish momentum.
Equations for Dynamic Trailing Stop:
- For Long Positions: The exit price is set at the lower SuperTrend band once the entry condition is met.
- For Short Positions: The exit price is determined by the upper SuperTrend band post-entry.
These dynamic trailing stops adjust as the market moves, providing a method to lock in profits while allowing room for the position to grow.
This strategy's strength lies in its dual analysis approach, leveraging RMI for momentum insights and presentTrend for trend direction and dynamic stops. This combination offers traders a robust framework to navigate various market conditions, aiming to capture trends early and exit positions strategically to maximize gains and minimize losses.
█ Trade Direction
The strategy provides flexibility in trade direction selection, offering "Long," "Short," or "Both" options to cater to different market conditions and trader preferences. This adaptability ensures that traders can align the strategy with their market outlook, risk tolerance, and trading goals.
█ Usage
To utilize the "PresentTrend RMI Synergy Strategy," traders should input their preferred settings in the Pine Script™ and apply the strategy to their charts. Monitoring RMI for momentum shifts and adjusting positions based on SuperTrend signals can optimize entry and exit points, enhancing potential returns while managing risk.
█ Default Settings
1. RMI Length: 21
The 21-period RMI length strikes a balance between capturing momentum and filtering out market noise, offering a medium-term outlook on market trends.
2. Super Trend Length: 7
A SuperTrend length of 7 periods is chosen for its responsiveness to price movements, providing a dynamic framework for trend identification without excessive sensitivity.
3. Super Trend Multiplier: 4.0
The multiplier of 4.0 for the SuperTrend indicator widens the trend bands, focusing on significant market moves and reducing the impact of minor fluctuations.

The "PresentTrend RMI Synergy Strategy" represents a significant step forward in trading strategy development, blending momentum and trend analysis in a unique way. By providing a detailed framework for understanding market dynamics, this strategy empowers traders to make more informed decisions.
Global & local RSI / quantifytoolsAs the terms global and local imply, global RSI describes broad relative strength, whereas local RSI describes local relative strength within the broad moves. A macro and micro view of relative strength so to speak. Global and local RSI are simply regular RSI and stochastic RSI. Local RSI extremes ( stochastic RSI oversold/overbought) often mark a pivot in RSI which naturally reflects to price. Local RSI extremes are visualized inside the global RSI bands (upper band for overbought, lower band for oversold) in a "heat map" style.
By default:
Stochastic RSI >= 75 = yellow
Stochastic RSI >= 87 = orange
Stochastic RSI >= 100 = pink
Users also have the ability smooth the RSI with their preferred smoothing method ( SMA , EMA , HMA , RMA, WMA ) and length. This leads to different behavior in RSI, rendering the typical RSI extremes (> 70 or < 30) suboptimal or even useless. By enabling adaptive bands, the extremes are readjusted based on typical RSI pivot points (median pivots ), which gives much more relevant reference points for oversold/overbought conditions in both global and local RSI. This feature can be used without smoothing, but it rarely provides a meaningful difference, unless the RSI calculation length is messed with.
Global RSI can be plotted as candles, bars or a line. Candles and bars can be useful for detecting rejections (wicks) in relative strength, the same you would with OHLC data. Sometimes there are "hidden rejections" that are visible in relative strength but not on OHLC data, which naturally gives an advantage. All colors can be adjusted in the input menu. You also have a real-time view of the current RSI states in top right corner. Available alerts are the following: global RSI overbought, global RSI oversold, local RSI overbought and local RSI oversold.
Relative Volume IndicatorA simple indicator showing the relation of volume to highest volume for a define number of bars. Helps to differentiate periods of low and high volume.
Define the number of bars to find the highest volume used as a basis.
Apply a simple moving average to smoothen the volume. Set it to 1 to disable smoothing.
Define a threshold differentiating low and high volume.
Relative Bandwidth FilterThis is a very simple script which can be used as measure to define your trading zones based on volatility.
Concept
This script tries to identify the area of low and high volatility based on comparison between Bandwidth of higher length and ATR of lower length.
Relative Bandwidth = Bandwidth / ATR
Bandwidth can be based on either Bollinger Band, Keltner Channel or Donchian Channel. Length of the bandwidth need to be ideally higher.
ATR is calculated using built in ATR method and ATR length need to be ideally lower than that used for calculating Bandwidth.
Once we got Relative Bandwidth, the next step is to apply Bollinger Band on this to measure how relatively high/low this value is.
Overall - If relative bandwidth is higher, then volatility is comparatively low. If relative bandwidth is lower, then volatility is comparatively high.
Usage
This can be used with your own strategy to filter out your non-trading zones based on volatility. Script plots a variable called "Signal" - which is not shown on chart pane. But, it is available in the data window. This can be used in another script as external input and apply logic.
Signal values can be
1 : Allow only Long
-1 : Allow only short
0 : Do not allow any trades
2 : Allow both Long and Short
