Cryptogrithm's Secret Momentum and Volatility IndicatorThis indicator is hard-coded for Bitcoin, but you may try it on other asset classes/coins. I have not updated this indicator in over 3 years, but it seems to still work very well for Bitcoin.
This indicator is NOT for beginners and is directed towards intermediate/advanced traders with a sensibility to agree/disagree with what this indicator is signalling (common sense).
This indicator was developed back in 2018 and I has not been maintained since, which is the reason why I am releasing it. (It still works great though! At the time of this writing of May 2022).
How to use:
Terms:
PA (Price Action): Literally the candlestick formations on your chart (and the trend formation). If you don't know how to read and understand price action, I will make a fast-track video/guide on this later (but in the meanwhile, you need to begin by learning Order-Flow Analysis, please google it first before asking).
CG Level (Cryptogrithm Level/Yellow Line): PA level above = bullish, PA level below = bearish
CG Bands (Cryptogrithm Bands): This is similar to how bollingers work, you can use this the same was as bollinger bands. The only difference is that the CG bands are more strict with the upper and lower levels as it uses different calculations to hug the price tighter allowing it to be more reactive to drastic price changes (earlier signals for oversold/overbought).
CG Upper Band (Red Upper Line): Above this upper bound line means overbought.
CG Middle Band (Light Blue Line): If PA trades above this line, the current PA trend is bullish continuing in the uptrend. If PA trades below this line, the current PA trend is bearish continuing in the downtrend. This band should only be used for short-term trends.
CG Lower Band (Green Lower Line): Below this lower bound line means oversold.
What the CG Level (yellow line) tells you:
PA is trading above CG Level = Bullish
PA is trading below CG Level = Bearish
Distance between CG Level and price = Momentum
What this means is that the further away the price is from the CG Level, the greater the momentum of the current PA trend. An increasing gap between the CG Level and PA indicates the price's strength (momentum) towards the current upward/downward trend. Basically when the PA and CG Level diverge, it means that the momentum is increasing in the current trend and when they converge, the current trend is losing momentum and the direction of the PA trend may flip towards the other direction (momentum flip).
PA+CG Level Momentum:
To use the CG Level as a momentum indicator, you need to pay attention to how the price and the CG level are moving away/closer from each other:
PA + CG Level Diverges = Momentum Increasing
PA + CG Level Converges = Momentum Decreasing
Examples (kind of common sense, but just for clarity):
Case 1: Bullish Divergence (Bullish): The PA is ABOVE and trending AWAY above from the CG Level = very bullish, this means that momentum is increasing towards the upside and larger moves will come (increasing gap between the price and CG Level)
Case 2: Bearish Convergence (Bearish): - The PA is ABOVE the CG Level and trending TOWARDS the CG Level = bearish, there is a possibility that the upward trend is ending. Look to start closing off long positions until case 1 (divergence) occurs again.
Case 3: Neutral - The PA is trading on the CG Level (no clear divergence or convergence between the PA and CG Level) = Indicates a back and forth (tug of war) between bears and bulls. Beware of choppy price patterns as the trend is undecisive until either supply/liquidity is dried out and a winner between bull/bear is chosen. This is a no trade zone, but do as you wish.
Case 4: Bearish Divergence (Bearish): The PA is BELOW and trending AWAY BELOW from the CG Level = very bearish, this means that momentum is increasing towards the downside and larger downward moves will come (increasing gap between the price and CG Level).
Case 5: Bullish Convergence (Bullish): - The PA is BELOW the CG Level and trending TOWARDS the CG Level = bullish, there is a possibility that the downward trend is ending and a trend flip is occuring. Look to start closing off short positions until case 4 (divergence) occurs again.
CG Bands + CG Level: You can use the CG bands instead of the PA candles to get a cleaner interpretation of reading the momentum. I won't go into detail as this is pretty self-explanatory. It is the same explanation as PA+CG Level Momentum, but you are replacing the PA candles with the CG Bands for interpretation. So instead of the PA converging/diverging from the CG Level, the Upper and Lower Bound levels are converging/diverging from the CG level instead.
Convergence: CG Level (yellow line) trades inside the CG bands
Divergence: CG Level (yellow line) trades outside the CG bands
Bullish/Bearish depends on whether the CG Band is trading below or above the CG level. If CG Band is above the CG Level, this is bullish. If CG Band is below the CG level, this is bearish.
Crosses (PA or CG Band crosses with CG level): This typically indicates volatility is incoming.
There are MANY MANY MANY other ways to use this indicator that is not explained here and even other undiscovered methods. Use some common sense as to how this indicator works (it is a momentum indicator and volatility predictor). You can get pretty creative and apply your own methods / knowledge to it and look for patterns that occur. Feel free to comment and share what you came up with!

The Barking Rat LiteMomentum & FVG Reversion Strategy
The Barking Rat Lite is a disciplined, short-term mean-reversion strategy that combines RSI momentum filtering, EMA bands, and Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection to identify short-term reversal points. Designed for practical use on volatile markets, it focuses on precise entries and ATR-based take profit management to balance opportunity and risk.
Core Concept
This strategy seeks potential reversals when short-term price action shows exhaustion outside an EMA band, confirmed by momentum and FVG signals:
EMA Bands:
Parameters used: A 20-period EMA (fast) and 100-period EMA (slow).
Why chosen:
- The 20 EMA is sensitive to short-term moves and reflects immediate momentum.
- The 100 EMA provides a slower, structural anchor.
When price trades outside both bands, it often signals overextension relative to both short-term and medium-term trends.
Application in strategy:
- Long entries are only considered when price dips below both EMAs, identifying potential undervaluation.
- Short entries are only considered when price rises above both EMAs, identifying potential overvaluation.
This dual-band filter avoids counter-trend signals that would occur if only a single EMA was used, making entries more selective..
Fair Value Gap Detection (FVG):
Parameters used: The script checks for dislocations using a 12-bar lookback (i.e. comparing current highs/lows with values 12 candles back).
Why chosen:
- A 12-bar displacement highlights significant inefficiencies in price structure while filtering out micro-gaps that appear every few bars in high-volatility markets.
- By aligning FVG signals with candle direction (bullish = close > open, bearish = close < open), the strategy avoids random gaps and instead targets ones that suggest exhaustion.
Application in strategy:
- Bullish FVGs form when earlier lows sit above current highs, hinting at downward over-extension.
- Bearish FVGs form when earlier highs sit below current lows, hinting at upward over-extension.
This gives the strategy a structural filter beyond simple oscillators, ensuring signals have price-dislocation context.
RSI Momentum Filter:
Parameters used: 14-period RSI with thresholds of 80 (overbought) and 20 (oversold).
Why chosen:
- RSI(14) is a widely recognized momentum measure that balances responsiveness with stability.
- The thresholds are intentionally extreme (80/20 vs. the more common 70/30), so the strategy only engages at genuine exhaustion points rather than frequent minor corrections.
Application in strategy:
- Longs trigger when RSI < 20, suggesting oversold exhaustion.
- Shorts trigger when RSI > 80, suggesting overbought exhaustion.
This ensures entries are not just technically valid but also backed by momentum extremes, raising conviction.
ATR-Based Take Profit:
Parameters used: 14-period ATR, with a default multiplier of 4.
Why chosen:
- ATR(14) reflects the prevailing volatility environment without reacting too much to outliers.
- A multiplier of 4 is a pragmatic compromise: wide enough to let trades breathe in volatile conditions, but tight enough to enforce disciplined exits before mean reversion fades.
Application in strategy:
- At entry, a fixed target is set = Entry Price ± (ATR × 4).
- This target scales automatically with volatility: narrower in calm periods, wider in explosive markets.
By avoiding discretionary exits, the system maintains rule-based discipline.

Note on Sample Size:
You’ll notice the report displays fewer than the ideal 100 trades in the strategy report above. This is intentional. The goal of the script is to isolate high-quality, short-term reversal opportunities while filtering out low-conviction setups. This means that the Barking Rat Lite strategy is very selective, filtering out over 90% of market noise. The brief timeframe shown in the strategy report here illustrates its filtering logic over a short window — not its full capabilities. As a result, even on lower timeframes like the 1-minute chart, signals are deliberately sparse — each one must pass all criteria before triggering.
For a larger dataset:
Once the strategy is applied to your chart, users are encouraged to expand the lookback range or apply the strategy to other volatile pairs to view a full sample.
💡Why 25% Equity Per Trade?
While it's always best to size positions based on personal risk tolerance, we defaulted to 25% equity per trade in the backtesting data — and here’s why:
Backtests using this sizing show manageable drawdowns even under volatile periods.
The strategy generates a sizeable number of trades, reducing reliance on a single outcome.
Combined with conservative filters, the 25% setting offers a balance between aggression and control.
Users are strongly encouraged to customize this to suit their risk profile.

Bitcoin Logarithmic Growth Curve 2025 Z-Score"The Bitcoin logarithmic growth curve is a concept used to analyze Bitcoin's price movements over time. The idea is based on the observation that Bitcoin's price tends to grow exponentially, particularly during bull markets. It attempts to give a long-term perspective on the Bitcoin price movements.
The curve includes an upper and lower band. These bands often represent zones where Bitcoin's price is overextended (upper band) or undervalued (lower band) relative to its historical growth trajectory. When the price touches or exceeds the upper band, it may indicate a speculative bubble, while prices near the lower band may suggest a buying opportunity.
Unlike most Bitcoin growth curve indicators, this one includes a logarithmic growth curve optimized using the latest 2024 price data, making it, in our view, superior to previous models. Additionally, it features statistical confidence intervals derived from linear regression, compatible across all timeframes, and extrapolates the data far into the future. Finally, this model allows users the flexibility to manually adjust the function parameters to suit their preferences.
The Bitcoin logarithmic growth curve has the following function:
y = 10^(a * log10(x) - b)
In the context of this formula, the y value represents the Bitcoin price, while the x value corresponds to the time, specifically indicated by the weekly bar number on the chart.
How is it made (You can skip this section if you’re not a fan of math):
To optimize the fit of this function and determine the optimal values of a and b, the previous weekly cycle peak values were analyzed. The corresponding x and y values were recorded as follows:
113, 18.55
240, 1004.42
451, 19128.27
655, 65502.47
The same process was applied to the bear market low values:
103, 2.48
267, 211.03
471, 3192.87
676, 16255.15
Next, these values were converted to their linear form by applying the base-10 logarithm. This transformation allows the function to be expressed in a linear state: y = a * x − b. This step is essential for enabling linear regression on these values.
For the cycle peak (x,y) values:
2.053, 1.268
2.380, 3.002
2.654, 4.282
2.816, 4.816
And for the bear market low (x,y) values:
2.013, 0.394
2.427, 2.324
2.673, 3.504
2.830, 4.211
Next, linear regression was performed on both these datasets. (Numerous tools are available online for linear regression calculations, making manual computations unnecessary).
Linear regression is a method used to find a straight line that best represents the relationship between two variables. It looks at how changes in one variable affect another and tries to predict values based on that relationship.
The goal is to minimize the differences between the actual data points and the points predicted by the line. Essentially, it aims to optimize for the highest R-Square value.
Below are the results:
snapshot
snapshot
It is important to note that both the slope (a-value) and the y-intercept (b-value) have associated standard errors. These standard errors can be used to calculate confidence intervals by multiplying them by the t-values (two degrees of freedom) from the linear regression.
These t-values can be found in a t-distribution table. For the top cycle confidence intervals, we used t10% (0.133), t25% (0.323), and t33% (0.414). For the bottom cycle confidence intervals, the t-values used were t10% (0.133), t25% (0.323), t33% (0.414), t50% (0.765), and t67% (1.063).
The final bull cycle function is:
y = 10^(4.058 ± 0.133 * log10(x) – 6.44 ± 0.324)
The final bear cycle function is:
y = 10^(4.684 ± 0.025 * log10(x) – -9.034 ± 0.063)
The main Criticisms of growth curve models:
The Bitcoin logarithmic growth curve model faces several general criticisms that we’d like to highlight briefly. The most significant, in our view, is its heavy reliance on past price data, which may not accurately forecast future trends. For instance, previous growth curve models from 2020 on TradingView were overly optimistic in predicting the last cycle’s peak.
This is why we aimed to present our process for deriving the final functions in a transparent, step-by-step scientific manner, including statistical confidence intervals. It's important to note that the bull cycle function is less reliable than the bear cycle function, as the top band is significantly wider than the bottom band.
Even so, we still believe that the Bitcoin logarithmic growth curve presented in this script is overly optimistic since it goes parly against the concept of diminishing returns which we discussed in this post:
This is why we also propose alternative parameter settings that align more closely with the theory of diminishing returns."
Now with Z-Score calculation for easy and constant valuation classification of Bitcoin according to this metric.
Created for TRW
RSI-Adaptive T3 [ChartPrime]The RSI-Adaptive T3 is a precision trend-following tool built around the legendary T3 smoothing algorithm developed by Tim Tillson , designed to enhance responsiveness while reducing lag compared to traditional moving averages. Current implementation takes it a step further by dynamically adapting the smoothing length based on real-time RSI conditions — allowing the T3 to “breathe” with market volatility. This dynamic length makes the curve faster in trending moves and smoother during consolidations.
To help traders visualize volatility and directional momentum, adaptive volatility bands are plotted around the T3 line, with visual crossover markers and a dynamic info panel on the chart. It’s ideal for identifying trend shifts, spotting momentum surges, and adapting strategy execution to the pace of the market.
HOIW IT WORKS
At its core, this indicator fuses two ideas:
The T3 Moving Average — a 6-stage recursively smoothed exponential average created by Tim Tillson , designed to reduce lag without sacrificing smoothness. It uses a volume factor to control curvature.
A Dynamic Length Engine — powered by the RSI. When RSI is low (market oversold), the T3 becomes shorter and more reactive. When RSI is high (overbought), the T3 becomes longer and smoother. This creates a feedback loop between price momentum and trend sensitivity.
// Step 1: Adaptive length via RSI
rsi = ta.rsi(src, rsiLen)
rsi_scale = 1 - rsi / 100
len = math.round(minLen + (maxLen - minLen) * rsi_scale)
pine_ema(src, length) =>
alpha = 2 / (length + 1)
sum = 0.0
sum := na(sum ) ? src : alpha * src + (1 - alpha) * nz(sum )
sum
// Step 2: T3 with adaptive length
e1 = pine_ema(src, len)
e2 = pine_ema(e1, len)
e3 = pine_ema(e2, len)
e4 = pine_ema(e3, len)
e5 = pine_ema(e4, len)
e6 = pine_ema(e5, len)
c1 = -v * v * v
c2 = 3 * v * v + 3 * v * v * v
c3 = -6 * v * v - 3 * v - 3 * v * v * v
c4 = 1 + 3 * v + v * v * v + 3 * v * v
t3 = c1 * e6 + c2 * e5 + c3 * e4 + c4 * e3
The result: an evolving trend line that adapts to market tempo in real-time.
KEY FEATURES
⯁ RSI-Based Adaptive Smoothing
The length of the T3 calculation dynamically adjusts between a Min Length and Max Length , based on the current RSI.
When RSI is low → the T3 shortens, tracking reversals faster.
When RSI is high → the T3 stretches, filtering out noise during euphoria phases.
Displayed length is shown in a floating table, colored on a gradient between min/max values.
⯁ T3 Calculation (Tim Tillson Method)
The script uses a 6-stage EMA cascade with a customizable Volume Factor (v) , as designed by Tillson (1998) .
Formula:
T3 = c1 * e6 + c2 * e5 + c3 * e4 + c4 * e3
This technique gives smoother yet faster curves than EMAs or DEMA/Triple EMA.
⯁ Visual Trend Direction & Transitions
The T3 line changes color dynamically:
Color Up (default: blue) → bullish curvature
Color Down (default: orange) → bearish curvature
Plot fill between T3 and delayed T3 creates a gradient ribbon to show momentum expansion/contraction.
Directional shift markers (“🞛”) are plotted when T3 crosses its own delayed value — helping traders spot trend flips or pullback entries.
⯁ Adaptive Volatility Bands
Optional upper/lower bands are plotted around the T3 line using a user-defined volatility window (default: 100).
Bands widen when volatility rises, and contract during compression — similar to Bollinger logic but centered on the adaptive T3.
Shaded band zones help frame breakout setups or mean-reversion zones.
⯁ Dynamic Info Table
A live stats panel shows:
Current adaptive length
Maximum smoothing (▲ MaxLen)
Minimum smoothing (▼ MinLen)
All values update in real time and are color-coded to match trend direction.
HOW TO USE
Use T3 crossovers to detect trend transitions, especially during periods of volatility compression.
Watch for volatility contraction in the bands — breakouts from narrow band periods often precede trend bursts.
The adaptive smoothing length can also be used to assess current market tempo — tighter = faster; wider = slower.
CONCLUSION
RSI-Adaptive T3 modernizes one of the most elegant smoothing algorithms in technical analysis with intelligent RSI responsiveness and built-in volatility bands. It gives traders a cleaner read on trend health, directional shifts, and expansion dynamics — all in a visually efficient package. Perfect for scalpers, swing traders, and algorithmic modelers alike, it delivers advanced logic in a plug-and-play format.
Consolidation Range with Signals (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Consolidation Range with Signals (Zeiierman) is a precision tool for identifying and trading market consolidation zones, where price contracts into tight ranges before significant movement. It provides dynamic range detection using either ADX-based trend strength or volatility compression metrics, and offers built-in take profit and stop loss signals based on breakout dynamics.
Whether you trade breakouts, range reversals, or trend continuation setups, this indicator visualizes the balance between supply and demand with clearly defined mid-bands, breakout zones, and momentum-sensitive TP/SL placements.
█ How It Works
⚪ Multi-Method Range Detection
ADX Mode
Uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to detect low-trend-strength environments. When ADX is below your selected threshold, price is considered to be in consolidation.
Volatility Mode
This mode detects consolidation by identifying periods of volatility compression. It evaluates whether the following metrics are simultaneously below their respective historical rolling averages:
Standard Deviation
Variance
Average True Range (ATR)
⚪ Dynamic Range Band System
Once a range is confirmed, the system builds a dynamic band structure using a volatility-based filter and price-jump logic:
Middle Line (Trend Filter): Reacts to price imbalance using adaptive jump logic.
Upper & Lower Bands: Calculated by expanding from the middle line using a configurable multiplier.
This creates a clean, visual box that reflects current consolidation conditions and adapts as price fluctuates within or escapes the zone.
⚪ SL/TP Signal Engine
On detection of a breakout from the range, the indicator generates up to 3 Take Profit levels and one Stop Loss, based on the breakout direction:
All TP/SL levels are calculated using the filtered base range and multipliers.
Cooldown logic ensures signals are not spammed bar-to-bar.
Entries are visualized with colored lines and labeled levels.
This feature is ideal for traders who want automated risk and reward reference points for range breakout plays.
█ How to Use
⚪ Breakout Traders
Use the SL/TP signals when the price breaks above or below the range bands, especially after extended sideways movement. You can customize how far TP1, TP2, and TP3 sit from the entry using your own risk/reward profile.
⚪ Mean Reversion Traders
Use the bands to locate high-probability reversion zones. These serve as reference zones for scalping or fade entries within stable consolidation phases.
█ Settings
Range Detection Method – Choose between ADX or Volatility compression to define range criteria.
Range Period – Determines how many bars are used to compute trend/volatility.
Range Multiplier – Scales the width of the consolidation zone.
SL/TP System – Optional levels that project TP1/TP2/TP3 and SL from the base price using multipliers.
Cooldown – Prevents repeated SL/TP signals from triggering too frequently.
ADX Threshold & Smoothing – Adjusts sensitivity of trend strength detection.
StdDev / Variance / ATR Multipliers – Fine-tune compression detection logic.

VWAP StrategyVWAP and volatility filters for structured intraday trades.
How the Strategy Works
1. VWAP Anchored to Session
VWAP is calculated from the start of each trading day.
Standard deviations are used to create bands above/below the VWAP.
2. Entry Triggers: Al Brooks H1/H2 and L1/L2
H1/H2 (Long Entry): Opens below 2nd lower deviation, closes above it.
L1/L2 (Short Entry): Opens above 2nd upper deviation, closes below it.
3. Volatility Filter (ATR)
Skips trades when deviation bands are too tight (< 3 ATRs).
4. Stop Loss
Based on the signal bar’s high/low ± stop buffer.
Longs: signalBarLow - stopBuffer
Shorts: signalBarHigh + stopBuffer
5. Take Profit / Exit Target
Exit logic is customizable per side:
VWAP, Deviation Band, or None
6. Safety Exit
Exits early if X consecutive bars go against the trade.
Longs: X red bars
Shorts: X green bars
Explanation of Strategy Inputs
- Stop Buffer: Distance from signal bar for stop-loss.
- Long/Short Exit Rule: VWAP, Deviation Band, or None
- Long/Short Target Deviation: Standard deviation for target exit.
- Enable Safety Exit: Toggle emergency exit.
- Opposing Bars: Number of opposing candles before safety exit.
- Allow Long/Short Trades: Enable or disable entry side.
- Show VWAP/Entry Bands: Toggle visual aids.
- Highlight Low Vol Zones: Orange shading for low volatility skips.
Tuning Tips
- Stop buffer: Use 1–5 points.
- Target deviation: Start with VWAP. In strong trends use 2nd deviation and turn off the counter-trend entry.
- Safety exit: 3 bars recommended.
- Disable short/long side to focus on one type of reversal.
Backtest Setup Suggestions
- initial_capital = 2000
- default_qty_value = 1 (fixed contracts or percent-of-equity)
Fib BB on VWMA*ATRThis TradingView Pine Script is designed to plot Fibonacci Bollinger Bands on a Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) using the Average True Range (ATR). The script takes a higher timeframe (HTF) approach, allowing traders to analyze price action and volatility from a broader market perspective.
🔹 How It Works
Higher Timeframe Data Integration
Users can select a specific timeframe to calculate the VWMA and ATR.
This allows for a more macro perspective, avoiding the noise of lower timeframes.
Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA)
Unlike the Simple Moving Average (SMA), VWMA gives higher weight to price movements with larger volume.
Calculation Formula:
𝑉𝑊𝑀𝐴=∑(𝐶𝑙𝑜𝑠𝑒×𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒) / ∑𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒
Since VWMA accounts for volume, it is more reactive to price zones with high buying or selling activity, making it useful for identifying liquidity zones.
ATR-Based Fibonacci Bollinger Bands
The Average True Range (ATR) is used to measure market volatility.
Instead of standard deviation-based Bollinger Bands, Fibonacci multipliers (2.618, 3.0, 3.414) are applied to ATR.
These bands adjust dynamically with market volatility.
🔹 Key Findings from Exploration
Through testing and analysis, this indicator seems to effectively detect supply and demand zones, particularly at the Fibonacci levels of 2.618 to 3.414.
Price frequently reacts at these bands, indicating that they capture key liquidity zones.
Potential Order Block Detection:
The ends of the Fibonacci Bollinger Bands (especially at 2.618, 3.0, and 3.414) tend to align with order blocks—areas where institutional traders previously accumulated or distributed positions.
This is particularly useful for order flow traders who focus on unfilled institutional orders.
🔹 How to Use This Indicator?
Identifying Order Blocks
When price reaches the upper or lower bands, check if there was a strong reaction (rejection or consolidation).
If price rapidly moves away from a band, that level might be an order block.
Spotting Liquidity Pools
VWMA’s nature enhances liquidity detection since it emphasizes high-volume price action.
If a price level repeatedly touches the band without breaking through, it suggests institutional orders may be absorbing liquidity there.
Trend Confirmation
If VWMA is trending upwards and price keeps rejecting the lower bands, it confirms a strong bullish trend.
Conversely, constant rejection from the upper bands suggests a bearish market.
This script is designed for open-source publication and offers traders a refined approach to detecting order blocks and liquidity zones using Fibonacci-based volatility bands.

이 트레이딩뷰 파인스크립트는 거래량 가중 이동평균(VWMA)과 평균 실제 범위(ATR)를 활용하여 피보나치 볼린저 밴드를 표시하는 지표입니다.
또한, 고차 타임프레임(HTF) 데이터를 활용하여 시장의 큰 흐름을 분석할 수 있도록 설계되었습니다.
🔹 지표 작동 방식
고차 타임프레임(HTF) 데이터 적용
사용자가 원하는 타임프레임을 선택하여 VWMA와 ATR을 계산할 수 있습니다.
이를 통해 더 큰 시장 흐름을 분석할 수 있으며, 저타임프레임의 노이즈를 줄일 수 있습니다.
거래량 가중 이동평균(VWMA) 적용
VWMA는 단순 이동평균(SMA)보다 거래량이 많은 가격 움직임에 더 큰 가중치를 부여합니다.
계산 공식:
𝑉𝑊𝑀𝐴=∑(𝐶𝑙𝑜𝑠𝑒×𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒) / ∑𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒
거래량이 많이 발생한 가격 구간을 강조하는 특성이 있어, 시장의 유동성 구간을 더 정확히 포착할 수 있습니다.
ATR 기반 피보나치 볼린저 밴드 생성
ATR(Average True Range)를 활용하여 변동성을 측정합니다.
기존의 표준편차 기반 볼린저 밴드 대신, 피보나치 계수(2.618, 3.0, 3.414)를 ATR에 곱하여 밴드를 생성합니다.
이 밴드는 시장 변동성에 따라 유동적으로 조정됩니다.
🔹 탐구 결과: 매물대 및 오더블록 감지
테스트를 통해 Fibonacci 2.618 ~ 3.414 구간에서 매물대 및 오더블록을 포착하는 경향이 있음을 확인했습니다.
가격이 피보나치 밴드(특히 2.618, 3.0, 3.414)에 닿을 때 반응하는 경우가 많음
VWMA의 특성을 통해 오더블록을 감지할 가능성이 높음
🔹 오더블록(Order Block) 감지 원리
Fibonacci 밴드 끄트머리(2.618 ~ 3.414)에서 가격이 강하게 반응
이 영역에서 가격이 강하게 튀어 오르거나(매수 압력) 급락하는(매도 압력) 경우,
→ 기관들이 포지션을 청산하거나 추가 매집하는 구간일 가능성이 큼.
과거에 대량 주문이 체결된 가격 구간(= 오더블록)일 수 있음.
VWMA를 통한 유동성 감지
VWMA는 거래량이 집중된 가격을 기준으로 이동하기 때문에, 기관 주문이 많이 들어온 가격대를 강조하는 특징이 있음.
따라서 VWMA와 피보나치 밴드가 만나는 지점은 유동성이 높은 핵심 구간이 될 가능성이 큼.
매물대 및 청산 구간 분석
가격이 밴드에 도달했을 때 강한 반등이 나오는지를 확인 → 오더블록 가능성
가격이 밴드를 여러 번 테스트하면서 돌파하지 못한다면, 해당 지점은 강한 매물대일 가능성
🔹 활용 방법
✅ 오더블록 감지:
가격이 밴드(2.618~3.414)에 닿고 강하게 튕긴다면, 오더블록 가능성
해당 지점에서 거래량 증가 및 강한 반등 발생 시 매수 고려

Channels by SmanovIndicator Description
“Channels by Smanov” is a multi-channel indicator that plots dynamic support and resistance zones around a moving average line. It is composed of two main parts:
FL 1 (Flexible Channels):
A Simple Moving Average (SMA) serves as the Basis.
Upper and lower bands are calculated by adding and subtracting an ATR-based buffer from the Basis.
User-defined inputs (such as Half Length, ATR Period, and ATR Multiplier) allow for flexibility in adapting the channel width to different market conditions.
FL 2 (Fixed Channels):
Eight additional bands expand on the same SMA + ATR logic but use fixed ATR multipliers (ranging from 2.2 up to 5.0).
These extra lines can help you gauge more distant levels of potential support or resistance.
By combining an SMA (to smooth price data) with ATR (to gauge volatility), this indicator highlights areas where price may be “stretched” relative to recent volatility. Traders often use channel-based indicators to identify potential “overbought” or “oversold” conditions, as well as to spot trend continuations or reversals.
How to Use / Trading Strategy
Trend Identification (Basis Line):
The middle line (the SMA) can be used as a trend filter:
If price consistently stays above the basis, it suggests an uptrend.
If price consistently stays below the basis, it suggests a downtrend.
Reversal Opportunities (Outer Bands):
When price moves into or beyond the upper bands, it may signal overbought conditions, creating potential short (or profit-taking) opportunities.
Conversely, when price dips into or beyond the lower bands, it may signal oversold conditions, which some traders use for initiating or adding to long positions.
Breakout or Continuation Signals:
In a strong trend, price may “ride” along the outer channels.
A clear break above/below a channel that previously acted as resistance/support could hint at trend continuation.
Failure to break these levels could suggest a potential reversal or consolidation phase.
Stop-Loss Placement:
Traders often place stops just outside a relevant band. For example, if you go long on a dip near a lower band, you might place your stop slightly below that band, relying on the ATR-based buffer to reflect normal volatility.
Multiple Timeframe Analysis:
Consider confirming signals on a higher timeframe (e.g., 4-hour or daily) while taking entries on a lower timeframe.
Channels on higher timeframes can act as stronger support or resistance, offering additional confluence.

LRSI-TTM Squeeze - AynetThis Pine Script code creates an indicator called LRSI-TTM Squeeze , which combines two key concepts to analyze momentum, squeeze conditions, and price movements in the market:
Laguerre RSI (LaRSI): A modified version of RSI used to identify trend reversals in price movements.
TTM Squeeze: Identifies market compressions (low volatility) and potential breakouts from these squeezes.
Functionality and Workflow of the Code
1. Laguerre RSI (LaRSI)
Purpose:
Provides a smoother and less noisy version of RSI to track price movements.
Calculation:
The script uses a filtering coefficient (alpha) to process price data through four levels (L0, L1, L2, L3).
Movement differences between these levels calculate buying pressure (cu) and selling pressure (cd).
The ratio of these pressures forms the Laguerre RSI:
bash
Kodu kopyala
LaRSI = cu / (cu + cd)
The LaRSI value indicates:
Below 20: Oversold condition (potential buy signal).
Above 80: Overbought condition (potential sell signal).
2. TTM Squeeze
Purpose:
Analyzes the relationship between Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to determine whether the market is compressed (low volatility) or expanded (high volatility).
Calculation:
Bollinger Bands:
Calculated based on the moving average (SMA) of the price, with an upper and lower band.
Keltner Channels:
Created using the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate an upper and lower band.
Squeeze States:
Squeeze On: BB is within KC.
Squeeze Off: BB is outside KC.
Other States (No Squeeze): Neither of the above applies.
3. Momentum Calculation
Momentum is computed using the linear regression of the difference between the price and its SMA. This helps anticipate the direction and strength of price movements when the squeeze ends.
Visuals on the Chart
Laguerre RSI Line:
An RSI indicator scaled to 0-100 is plotted.
The line's color changes based on its movement:
Green line: RSI is rising.
Red line: RSI is falling.
Key levels:
20 level: Oversold condition (buy signal can be triggered).
80 level: Overbought condition (sell signal can be triggered).
Momentum Histogram:
Displays momentum as histogram bars with colors based on its direction and strength:
Lime (light green): Positive momentum increasing.
Green: Positive momentum decreasing.
Red: Negative momentum decreasing.
Maroon (dark red): Negative momentum increasing.
Squeeze Status Indicator:
A marker is plotted on the zero line to indicate the squeeze state:
Yellow: Squeeze On (compression active).
Blue: Squeeze Off (compression ended, movement expected).
Gray: No Squeeze.
Information Table
A table is displayed in the top-right corner of the chart, showing closing prices for different timeframes (e.g., 1 minute, 5 minutes, 1 hour, etc.). Each timeframe is color-coded.
Alerts
LaRSI Alerts:
Crosses above 20: Exiting oversold condition (buy signal).
Crosses below 80: Exiting overbought condition (sell signal).
Squeeze Alerts:
When the squeeze ends: Indicates a potential price move.
When the squeeze starts: Indicates volatility is decreasing.
Summary
This indicator is a powerful tool for determining market trends, momentum, and squeeze conditions. It helps users identify periods when the market is likely to move or remain stagnant, providing alerts based on these analyses to support trading strategies.
[ETH] Optimized Trend Strategy - Lorenzo SuperScalpStrategy Title: Optimized Trend Strategy - Lorenzo SuperScalp
Description:
The Optimized Trend Strategy is a comprehensive trading system tailored for Ethereum (ETH) and optimized for the 15-minute timeframe but adaptable to various timeframes. This strategy utilizes a combination of technical indicators—RSI, Bollinger Bands, and MACD—to identify and act on price trends efficiently, providing traders with actionable buy and sell signals based on market conditions.
Key Features:
Multi-Indicator Approach:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Identifies overbought and oversold conditions to time market entries and exits.
Bollinger Bands: Acts as a dynamic support and resistance level, helping to pinpoint precise entry and exit zones.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): Detects momentum changes through bullish and bearish crossovers.
Signal Conditions:
Buy Signal:
RSI is below 45 (indicating an oversold condition).
Price is near or below the lower Bollinger Band.
MACD bullish crossover occurs.
Sell Signal:
RSI is above 55 (indicating an overbought condition).
Price is near or above the upper Bollinger Band.
MACD bearish crossunder occurs.
Trade Execution Logic:
Long Trades: Opened when a buy signal flashes. If there’s an open short position, it is closed before opening a long.
Short Trades: Opened when a sell signal flashes. If there’s an open long position, it is closed before opening a short.
The strategy also ensures a minimum number of bars between consecutive trades to avoid rapid trading in choppy conditions.
Pyramiding Support:
Up to 3 consecutive trades in the same direction are allowed, enabling traders to scale into positions based on strong signals.
Visual Indicators:
RSI Levels: Dotted lines at 45 and 55 for quick reference to oversold and overbought levels.
Buy and Sell Signals: Visual markers on the chart indicate where trades are executed, ensuring clarity on entry and exit points.
Best Used For:
Swing Trading & Scalping: While optimized for the 15-minute timeframe, this strategy works across various timeframes, making it suitable for both short-term scalping and swing trading.
Crypto Trading: Tailored for Ethereum but effective for other cryptocurrencies due to its dynamic indicator setup.
E9 Bollinger RangeThe E9 Bollinger Range is a technical trading tool that leverages Bollinger Bands to track volatility and price deviations, along with additional trend filtering via EMAs.
The script visually enhances price action with a combination of trend-filtering EMAs, bar colouring for trend direction, signals to indicate potential buy and sell points based on price extension and engulfing patterns.
Here’s a breakdown of its key components:
Bollinger Bands: The strategy plots multiple Bollinger Band deviations to create different price levels. The furthest deviation bands act as warning signs for traders when price extends significantly, signaling potential overbought or oversold conditions.
Bar Colouring: Visual bar colouring is applied to clearly indicate trend direction: green bars for an uptrend and red bars for a downtrend.
EMA Filtering: Two EMAs (50 and 200) are used to help filter out false signals, giving traders a better sense of the underlying trend.
This combination of signals, visual elements, and trend filtering provides traders with a systematic approach to identifying price deviations and taking advantage of market corrections.
Brief History of Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands were developed by John Bollinger in the early 1980s as a tool to measure price volatility in financial markets. The bands consist of a moving average (typically 20 periods) with upper and lower bands placed two standard deviations away. These bands expand and contract based on market volatility, offering traders a visual representation of price extremes and potential reversal zones.
John Bollinger’s work revolutionized technical analysis by incorporating volatility into trend detection. His bands remain widely used across markets, including stocks, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. With the ability to highlight overbought and oversold conditions, Bollinger Bands have become a staple in many trading strategies.
Follow LineFollow Line is a common MT4 FX indicator based on trend following.
The main idea behind the calculation is volatility:
-Indicator Line increases as price goes above Bollinger Bands but with 1 standard deviation.
-Likewise when price moves below the lower Bollinger Band with 1 Standard deviation, Follow -Line decreases down.
-As you can imagine, indicator stays as a flat line when price moves between the bands.
There are two critical settings about the indicator:
1- Bollinger Bands Deviation is set to 1 as default but if you want to have early signals you have to decrease that amount. Also you'd better increase that to have flat values on sideways market conditions for not getting chopped by the early but false signals.
2- ATR Filter is activated in default settings and the indicator follows the trend with a distance from Highs and Lows considering ATR (default length 5) values. If you turn off the ATR filter, the indicator line only takes into account the Highs and the Lows. Indicator will get more agile but the risk of choppy signals can be taken that time. I personally advise you to increase the Bollinger Band Deviation from 1 to between 1.5-2 to stabilize the fake signals when ATR filter is turned off.
Signals can be shown on the graph:
BUY: when Follow Line changes direction from red to blue.(which means Price is above Bollinger Upper Band with 1 standard deviation)
SELL: when Follow Line changes direction from blue to red. (which means Price moves below Bollinger Lower Band with 1 standard deviation)
Finally, some of you may know there are also several Follow Line indicators on TradingView but unfortunately they don't show the same exact values (close but not same) comparing with original version of MT4 and the Metastock version that I've coded recently. So, I shared this stuff to have the exact same values on graphs on all platforms.
The Ultimate Buy and Sell IndicatorThis indicator should be used in conjunction with a solid risk management strategy that does not over-leverage positions and uses stop-losses. You can not rely 100% on the signals provided by this indicator (or any other for that matter).
With that said, this indicator can provide some excellent signals.
It has been designed with a large number of customization options intended for advanced traders, but you do not HAVE to be an advanced user to simply use the indicator. I have tried to make it easy to understand, and this section will provide you with a better understanding of how to use it.
NOTE:
While NOT REQUIRED, I would recommend also finding my indicator called, "Ultimate RSI", which is designed to work together with this indicator (visually). They both contain the same settings and allow you to visualize changes made in this indicator that can not be displayed on the main chart.
This indicator creates it's own candles(bars), so you have to go into your main settings and turn off the "body, border and wick" color settings. Using a dark background is also recommended.
How does it work?
The indicator mainly relies on the RSI indicator with Bollinger Bands for signals. (Though not entirely)
First, there are something that I call "Watch Signals", which are various Bollinger Band crossing events. This could be the price crossing Bollinger Bands or the RSI crossing Bollinger Bands.
There are separate watch signals for buys and sells. Buy watch signals are colored orange to match the BUY signal candle color and Fuchsia (kind of a bright purple) to match SELL signal candles.
In order for most buy or sell signals to be created, there must first be a watch signal. There is a lookback period (or length) for watch signals to be used, and after that many candles (bars) have passed, they will be ignored. You can set a length to look back as well as a time to wait before creating any.
What this means is that if there has previously been (for instance) a sell signal. You can tell it to wait 10 bars before creating any buy watch signals. You can then also tell it that it should look back 10 bars from the current one in order to find any buy watch signals. This means that if you had it set up that way 10 to wait and 10 to validate, it would start allowing buy watch signals 11 bars after a sell, and then once you hit 20 bars, it will start leaving a gap (invisible to you) as the 10 bar lookback period starts moving forward with each new bar. This is useful in order to keep signals more spaced apart as some bad signals come quickly after another one.
Example: You may get a sell signal where the Bollinger bands are tight, then the price easily drops down into the lower band creating a buy watch signal, then you get a "fake" or short pump up and it says buy, but then drops dramatically afterwards. The wait period can ensure that the sell stays in effect longer before a buy is considered by blocking any buy watch signals for a period of time.
After you get a watch signal, the system then looks for various other things to happen to create buy or sell signals. This could be the RSI crossing the (slow) RSI Basis line (from its Bollinger bands), it could be the price crossing its basis line, it could be MACD crosses, it could even be RSI crossing certain levels. All of these are options. If you like the MACD strategy and want it to give you buy and sell signals from just MACD crosses, simply select that option for signals.
It is also able to use the first of any of the options that takes place.
I included an option to force alternating buy and sell signals, rather than showing groups of, or subsequent buy, buy, buy signals, for instance.
Moving on....
You can change the moving average that is used to calculate the RSI. The standard moving average for RSI is the RMA (aka SWMA). Changes to this can dramatically change your signals. You also have the option to change the moving average type used in the Bollinger bands calculation. You can change the length of these as well. The same goes for the Bollinger bands over the Price chart. I added an ATR option for the RSI Bollinger bands to play with, as well. You are able to adjust the standard deviation (multiplier) of the bands as well, which will of course affect the signals.
The ways you can play with signals are nearly infinite, so have fun figuring it out.
The indicator allows for moving averages to be shown as well, with a variety of types to choose from. The standard numbers are 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200, with the addition of a custom moving average of your choice. You can also change the color of this one. You can choose to show them all or any of them you want to show, in any combination, although the TYPE of moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, etc.) will apply to all of them.
You may also notice the Bollinger Bands over the Price are colored, and become more or less transparent.
The color is derived from the trend of the RSI or the RSI basis (your choice). It looks back at the value however many bars you want and compares the values and that's how it determines if it is trending up or down. Since RSI is a directional momentum indicator, this can be quite useful. If you see the bands are getting darker, this will explain why.
The indicator has a lookback period for determining the widest the bands (which measure volatility) have been over that period of time. This is the baseline. It then will make the bands disappear (by making them more transparent) if the volatility is low. This indicates that a change in volatility is coming and that price isn't really changing much compared to the past (default 500) bars. If they become bright, this is because price has started trending in a direction and volatility is increasing.
I should also note that the candles are colored based on RSI levels.
If you use the Ultimate Companion indicator, you will be able to see the RSI levels (zones) that the colors are based on. As RSI moves into a new range, the candle color will change.
I have created a yellow zone where the candles turn yellow. This is when RSI is between (default) 45 and 55, indicating there is basically no momentum and price is going sideways. This is a good place to get trapped in bad trades, and there is a Yellow RSI Filter to block signals in this area to keep you from entering bad trades.
Green candles indicate values over 55 (getting brighter as RSI rises) and red candles are RSI values under 45 (getting brighter as RSI values get lower). If you see white, this means RSI is either over 80 or under 20. A sharp reversal is almost always imminent at this stage.
When we talk about Buy and Sell Signals, they draw a green or red triangle and it literally says BUY or SELL. There is an option to color the background for added visibility. These signals do not "repaint", what this means is that they can be late. To account for this, I have included a background color that will flash as a warning that a buy or sell could be imminent, although it may fail to break through and set a buy or sell signal. This is simply an advanced warning. The reason is that sometimes a candle may be very large and you won't be told to buy or sell during the candle until the move is completely over and now you're getting in on the next one. That's not a great feeling, so I made it repaint the background color and not repaint the completed signal. You get the best of both worlds.
This indicator also uses complex logic to handle things.
When there is a buy signal, it enters into a state of having been bought, or a "bought state". The same for sells. If Force alternating signals is off, you could have more than one buy in a bought state, or more than one sell in a sell state. There is an option to color the background green during the full duration of a bought state, or red during the full duration of a sold state.
I have added divergence.
This shows that the lows or highs of RSI and PRICE are different. If RSI is making higher highs but the price is not, then the price is likely to follow this bullish divergence, if the opposite happens, it's bearish. It will draw a line on the chart connecting the highs and lows and call it bearish or bullish. You can adjust this as well.
I have an RSI High/Low filter. If the RSI basis (or average) is very high or low, you can block signal from this area since the price is likely to continue in that direction before actually reversing.
You can change the settings of the MACD if you choose to use it for signals, and if you want to see it, you'll have to run that indicator below the chart and match the settings to see what is going on, just like the RSI.
Going back to Watch Signals. You can also choose to require more than one watch signal if you choose. You can skip watch signals, so it will ignore the first or second one, whatever you want to do. You can color the background to show you where watch signals have been skipped.
Regarding the wait period for creating watch signals after a sell or after a buy, you can also color the background to see where these were blocked by the wait period.
Lastly you can choose which type of watch signals to use, or keep them from being shown on the chart. This allows you to study the history of how the asset you are trading behaves and customize the behavior of signals based on your study of it.
Everything in the settings area has tooltips, which will explain what that thing does to help you along this journey.
I hope this indicator (and perhaps Ultimate RSI alongside this) will help you take your trading to the next level.
Trend Gaussian Channels [DeltaAlgo]This Script Introduces The Use Of The Gaussian Channel Concepts
This indicator consists of three lines: a central line that represents the moving average, and an upper and lower band that represent the volatility of the price movements.
The Gaussian channels is a concept consists of an upper & lower bands along with the basis; the mid band. The use of the Gaussian bands are simple, as described below.👇
Use Case:
There are many ways the Gaussian channel indicator can be used!
1. Look for the price to touch or cross the upper/lower bands of the Gaussian Channel Indicator. This indicates that the price has reached an high level of volatility. a reversal or correction may be imminent.
2. Wait for confirmation of the potential reversal or correction. This can be in the form of a bearish or bullish candlestick pattern, or a signal from another technical indicator.
a. For this reason I have implemented some signals that indicate trend shifts & candle colors to clearly display the switching between a bullish sentiment or bearish.
3. Enter a trade in the direction of the reversal or correction. For example, if the price touches the upper band and a bearish candlestick pattern occurs or if you get a bearish signal, enter a short trade. If the price touches the lower band and indicates bullish candlestick pattern or bullish signal, enter a long trade.
Sometimes this band can act as a support & resistance, THIS is not always the case as it is not meant to be used as support & resistance.
FibonRSI / ErkOziHello,
This software is a technical analysis script written in the TradingView Pine language. The script creates a trading indicator based on Fibonacci retracement levels and the RSI indicator, providing information about price movements and asset volatility by using Bollinger Bands.
There are many different scripts in the market that draw RSI and Fibonacci retracement levels. However, this script was originally designed by me and shared publicly on TradingView.
***The indicator uses RSI (Relative Strength Index) and Bollinger Bands (BB) as the basis for the FibonRSI strategy. RSI measures the strength of a price movement, and BB measures the volatility of an asset. The FibonRSI strategy is based on the idea that the Fibonacci ratios and RSI can be used to predict a asset's price retracement levels.
***The script allows for various parameters to be adjusted. Users can specify the price source type and adjust the periods for RSI and Bollinger Bands. The standard deviation number for Bollinger Bands can also be customized.
***The script calculates the current RSI indicator position and the basic, upper, and lower levels of Bollinger Bands. It then calculates and draws the Fibonacci retracement levels. The color of the RSI line is determined by the upper and lower distribution levels of Bollinger Bands. Additionally, the color of the Fibonacci retracement levels can also be customized by the user.
***This script can be used to determine potential buy and sell signals using Fibonacci retracement levels and RSI. For example, when the RSI is oversold and the price is close to a Fibonacci retracement level, it can be interpreted as a buying opportunity. Similarly, when the RSI is overbought and the price is close to a Fibonacci retracement level, it can be interpreted as a selling opportunity.
***The script takes input parameters such as the price source used for calculation, the period for the RSI indicator, the period for the Moving Average in Bollinger Bands, and the number of standard deviations used in Bollinger Bands.
***The script's conditions include elements such as calculating the current position of the RSI indicator, calculating the upper and lower Bollinger Bands, calculating the dispersion factor, and calculating Fibonacci levels.
***The parameters in the code can be adjusted for calculation, including the price type used, the RSI period, the Moving Average period for BB, and the standard deviation count for BB. After this, the current position of the RSI, Moving Average, and standard deviation for BB are calculated. After calculating the upper and lower BB, the levels above and below the average are calculated using a specific dispersion constant.
CONDITIONS FOR THE SCRIPT
current_rsi = ta.rsi(src, for_rsi) // Current position of the RSI indicator
basis = ta.ema(current_rsi, for_ma)
dev = for_mult * ta.stdev(current_rsi, for_ma)
upper = basis + dev
lower = basis - dev
dispersion = 1
disp_up = basis + (upper - lower) * dispersion
disp_down = basis - (upper - lower) * dispersion
// Fibonacci Levels
f100 = basis + (upper - lower) * 1.0
f78 = basis + (upper - lower) * 0.78
f65 = basis + (upper - lower) * 0.65
f50 = basis
f35 = basis - (upper - lower) * 0.65
f23 = basis - (upper - lower) * 0.78
f0 = basis - (upper - lower) * 1.0
***When calculating Fibonacci levels, the distance between the average of BB and the upper and lower BB is used. These levels are 0%, 23.6%, 35%, 50%, 65%, 78.6%, and 100%. Finally, the RSI line that changes color according to a specific RSI position, Fibonacci levels, and BB are visualized. Additionally, the levels of 70, 30, and 50 are also shown.
The script then sets the color of the RSI position according to the EMA and draws Bollinger Bands, RSI, Fibonacci levels, and the 70, 30, and 50 levels.
In conclusion, this script enables traders to analyze market trends and make informed decisions. It can also be customized to suit individual trading strategies.
This script analyzes the RSI indicator using Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci levels. The default settings are 14 periods for RSI, 233 periods and 2 standard deviations for BB. The MA period inside BB is selected as the BB period and is used when calculating Fibonacci levels.
***The reason for selecting these settings is to provide enough time for BB period to confirm a possible trend. Additionally, the MA period inside BB is matched with the BB period and used when calculating Fibonacci levels.
***Fibonacci levels are calculated from the distance between the upper and lower bands of BB and show how RSI movement is related to these levels. Better results can be achieved when RSI periods are set to Fibonacci numbers such as 21, 55, and 89. Therefore, the use of Fibonacci numbers is recommended when adjusting RSI periods. Fibonacci numbers are among the technical analysis tools that can capture the reflection of naturally occurring movements in the market. Therefore, the use of Fibonacci numbers often helps to better track fluctuations in the market.
Finally, the indicator also displays the 70 and 30 levels and the middle level (50) with Fibonacci levels drawn in circles. Changing these settings can help optimize the Fibonacci levels and further improve the indicator.

LNL Keltner ExhaustionLNL Keltner Exhaustion resolves the constant issue of Bands vs. EMAs
With the keltner exhaustion wedges, you can easily see the keltner channel extremes witout using the actual bands. That way, you will know whether the price is outside of the keltner channels + you can use other indicators (such as EMAs) on chart without the bands so the chart does not look messy & hard to read.
Two Types of Wedges:
1. Green/Red Wedge - Price action is extended outside the regular band. More of a "profit taking" zone rather than "entry taking" (default set to 3.0 ATR factor).
2. Purple Wedge - Price action is extended outside of the extreme band. Chances are price will revert to mean soon (default set to 4.0 ATR factor).
Works great as a target tool with the squeeze setup or as an overall extension gauge.
Hope it helps.
CTS-StochasticThis Pine Script code defines a custom technical indicator for the TradingView platform called "CTS-Stochastic Complete". It calculates and displays a standard stochastic oscillator and generates trading signals based on unconventional crossover logic.
Here is a breakdown of its functionality:
Core Functionality
The script calculates the Stochastic Oscillator, a momentum indicator that compares a particular closing price of an asset to a range of its prices over a certain period of time. It consists of two lines:
%K Line: The main stochastic line, calculated and then smoothed.
%D Line: A moving average of the %K line, acting as a signal line.
These two lines oscillate between 0 and 100.
Key Sections of the Code:
Indicator Declaration:
indicator("CTS-Stochastic Complete", ... overlay=false): This line declares the script as an indicator that will be displayed in a separate panel below the main price chart.
User Inputs:
You can customize the indicator's parameters from the settings menu:
Stochastic Length: The lookback period for the stochastic calculation (default is 14).
%K Smoothing: The period for smoothing the raw stochastic to create the %K line (default is 3).
%D Smoothing: The period for the moving average of the %K line to create the %D line (default is 3).
Upper Band: The threshold for the overbought level (default is 65).
Lower Band: The threshold for the oversold level (default is 35).
Plotting:
It plots the %K line in blue and the %D line in orange.
It draws two horizontal lines: a red "Upper Band" for the overbought level and a green "Lower Band" for the oversold level.
Signal Logic and Visualization:
Buy Signal: A green triangle pointing up appears at the top of the indicator window when the blue %K line crosses above the red overBought line.
Sell Signal: A red triangle pointing down appears at the bottom of the indicator window when the blue %K line crosses below the green underSold line.
Note: The signal logic is unconventional. Typically, a buy signal is generated when the stochastic crosses up from the oversold area, and a sell signal occurs when it crosses down from the overbought area. This script's logic is reversed from the traditional interpretation.
Alerts:
The script includes alertcondition functions that allow you to create server-side alerts in TradingView. You can set up notifications for when a "Buy Signal" or "Sell Signal" occurs based on the logic described above.
Weekly/Monthly Golden ATR LevelsWeekly/Monthly Golden ATR Levels
This indicator is designed to give traders a clear, rule-based framework for identifying support and resistance zones anchored to prior period ranges and the market’s own volatility. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) as a measure of how far price can realistically stretch, then projects fixed levels from the midpoint of the prior week and prior month.
Rather than “moving targets” that repaint, these levels are frozen at the start of each new week and month and stay fixed until the next period begins. This makes them reliable rails for both intraday and swing trading.
What It Plots
Weekly Midpoint (last week’s High + Low ÷ 2)
From this mid, the script projects:
Weekly +1 / −1 ATR
Weekly +2 / −2 ATR
Monthly Midpoint (last month’s High + Low ÷ 2)
From this mid, the script projects:
Monthly +1 / −1 ATR
Monthly +2 / −2 ATR
Customization
Set ATR length & timeframe (default: 14 ATR on Daily bars).
Adjust multipliers for Level 1 (±1 ATR) and Level 2 (±2 ATR).
Choose line color, style, and width separately for weekly and monthly bands.
Toggle labels on/off.
How to Use
Context at the Open
If price opens above last week’s midpoint, bias favors upside toward +1 / +2.
If price opens below the midpoint, bias favors downside toward −1 / −2.
Weekly Bands = Short-Term Rails
+1 / −1 ATR: Rotation pivots. Expect intraday reaction.
+2 / −2 ATR: Extreme stretch zones. Reversals or breakouts often occur here.
Monthly Bands = Big Picture Rails
Use these for swing positioning, or as “outer guardrails” on intraday charts.
When weekly and monthly bands cluster → high-confluence zone.
Trade Playbook
Trend Day: Hold above +1 → target +2. Break below −1 → target −2.
Range Day: Fade first test of ±2, scalp toward ±1 or midpoint.
Catalyst/News Day: Use with caution—levels provide context, not barriers.
Risk Management
Place stops just outside the band you’re trading against.
Scale profits at the next inner level (e.g., short from +2, cover partial at +1).
Runners can trail to the midpoint or opposite side.
Why It Works
ATR measures volatility—how far price tends to travel in a given period.
Anchoring to prior highs and lows captures where real supply/demand last clashed.
Combining the two gives levels that are statistically relevant, widely observed, and psychologically sticky.
Trading books from Mark Douglas (Trading in the Zone), Jared Tendler (The Mental Game of Trading), and Oliver Kell (Victory in Stock Trading) all stress the importance of having objective, repeatable reference points. These levels deliver that discipline—removing guesswork and reducing emotional trading
EMA Percentile Rank [SS]Hello!
Excited to release my EMA percentile Rank indicator!
What this indicator does
Plots an EMA and colors it by short-term trend.
When price crosses the EMA (up or down) and remains on that side for three subsequent bars, the cross is “confirmed.”
At the moment of the most recent cross, it anchors a reference price to the crossover point to ensure static price targets.
It measures the historical distance between price and the EMA over a lookback window, separately for bars above and below the EMA.
It computes percentile distances (25%, 50%, 85%, 95%, 99%) and draws target bands above/below the anchor.
Essentially what this indicator does, is it converts the raw “distance from EMA” behavior into probabilistic bands and historical hit rates you can use for targets, stop placement, or mean-reversion/continuation decisions.
Indicator Inputs
EMA length: Default is 21 but you can use any EMA you prefer.
Lookback: Default window is 500, this is length that the percentiles are calculated. You can increase or decrease it according to your preference and performance.
Show Accumulation Table: This allows you to see the table that shows the hits/price accumulation of each of the percentile ranges. UCL means upper confidence and LCL means lower confidence (so upper and lower targets).
About Percentiles
A percentile is a way of expressing the position of a value within a dataset relative to all the other values.
It tells you what percentage of the data points fall at or below that value.
For example:
The 25th percentile means 25% of the values are less than or equal to it.
The 50th percentile (also called the median) means half the values are below it and half are above.
The 99th percentile means only 1% of the values are higher.
Percentiles are useful because they turn raw measurements into context — showing how “extreme” or “typical” a value is compared to historical behavior.
In the EMA Percentile Rank indicator, this concept is applied to the distance between price and the EMA. By calculating percentile distances, the script can mark levels that have historically been reached often (low percentiles) or rarely (high percentiles), helping traders gauge whether current price action is stretched or within normal bounds.
Use Cases
The EMA Percentile Rank indicator is best suited for traders who want to quantify how far price has historically moved away from its EMA and use that context to guide decision-making.
One strong use case is target setting after trend shifts: when a confirmed crossover occurs, the percentile bands (25%, 50%, 85%, 95%, 99%) provide statistically grounded levels for scaling out profits or placing stops, based on how often price has historically reached those distances. This makes it valuable for traders who prefer data-driven risk/reward planning instead of arbitrary point targets. Another use case is identifying stretched conditions — if price rapidly tags the 95% or 99% band after a cross, that’s an unusually large move relative to history, which could signal exhaustion and prompt mean-reversion trades or protective actions.
Conversely, if the accumulation table shows price frequently resides in upper bands after bullish crosses, traders may anticipate continuation and hold positions longer . The indicator is also effective as a trend filter when combined with its EMA color-coding : only taking trades in the trend’s direction and using the bands as dynamic profit zones.
Additionally, it can support multi-timeframe confluence (if you align your chart to the timeframes of interest), where higher-timeframe trend direction aligns with lower-timeframe percentile behavior for higher-probability setups. Swing traders can use it to frame pullbacks — entering near lower percentile bands during an uptrend — while intraday traders might use it to fade extremes or ride breakouts past the median band. Because the anchor price resets only on EMA crosses, the indicator preserves a consistent reference for ongoing trades, which is especially helpful for managing swing positions through noise .
Overall, its strength lies in transforming raw EMA distance data into actionable, probability-weighted levels that adapt to the instrument’s own volatility and tendencies .
Summary
This indicator transforms a simple EMA into a distribution-aware framework: it learns how far price tends to travel relative to the EMA on either side, and turns those excursions into percentile bands and historical hit rates anchored to the most recent cross. That makes it a flexible tool for targets, stops, and regime filtering, and a transparent way to reason about “how stretched is stretched?”—with context from your chosen market and timeframe.
I hope you all enjoy!
And as always, safe trades!
Queso Heat IndexQueso Heat Index (QHI) — ATR-Adaptive Edge-Pressure Gauge
QHI measures how strongly price is pressing the edges of a rolling consolidation window. It heats up when price repeatedly pushes the window up , cools down when it pushes down , and drifts back toward neutral when price wanders in the middle. Everything is ATR-normalized so it adapts across symbols and timeframes.
Output: a signed score from −100 … +100
> 0 = bullish pressure (hot)
< 0 = bearish pressure (cold)
≈ 0 = neutral (no side dominating)
What you’ll see on the chart
Rolling “box” (Donchian window): top, bottom, and midline.
Optional compact-box shading when the window height is small relative to ATR.
Background “thermals”: tinted red when Heat > Hot threshold, blue when Heat < Cold threshold (intensity scales with the score).
Optional Heat line (−100..+100), optional 0/±80 thresholds, and optional push markers (PU/PD).
Optional table showing the current Heat score, placeable in any corner.
How it works (under the hood)
Consolidation window — Over lookback bars we track highest high (top), lowest low (bottom), and midpoint. The window is called “compact” when box height ≤ ATR × maxRangeATR .
ATR-based push detection — A bar is a push-up if high > prior window high + (epsATR × ATR + tick buffer) . A push-down if low < prior window low − (epsATR × ATR + tick buffer) . We also measure how many ATRs beyond the edge the bar traveled.
Heat gains (symmetric) — Each push adds/subtracts Heat:
base gain + streak bonus × consecutive pushes + magnitude bonus × ATRs beyond edge .
Decay toward neutral — Each bar, Heat decays by a percentage. Decay is:
– higher in the middle band of the box, and
– adaptive : the farther (in ATRs) from the relevant band (top when hot, bottom when cold), the faster it decays; hugging the band slows decay.
Midpoint bias (optional) — Gentle drift toward hot when trading above mid, toward cold when below mid, with a dead-zone near mid so tiny wobbles don’t matter.
Reset on regime flip (optional) — First valid push from the opposite side can snap Heat back to 0 before applying new gains.
How to read it
Rising hot with slow decay → strong upside pressure; pullbacks that hold near the top band often continue.
Flip to cold after being hot → regime change risk; tighten risk or consider the other side.
Compact window + rising hot (or cold) → squeeze-and-go conditions.
Neutral (≈ 0) → edges aren’t being pressured; expect mean-reversion inside the box.
Key inputs (what they do)
Window & ATR
lookback : size of the Donchian window (longer = smoother, slower).
atrLen : ATR period for all volatility-scaled thresholds.
maxRangeATR : defines “compact” windows for optional shading.
topBottomFrac : how thick the top/bottom bands are (used for decay/pressure logic).
Push detection (ATR-based)
epsATR : how many ATRs beyond the prior edge to count as a real push.
tickBuff : fixed extra ticks beyond the ATR epsilon (filters micro-breaches).
Heat gains
gainBase : main fuel per push.
gainPerStreak : rewards consecutive pushes.
gainPer1ATRBrk : adds more for stronger breakouts past the edge.
resetOppSide : snap back to 0 on the first opposite-side push.
Decay
decayPct : baseline % removed each bar.
decayAccelMid : multiplies decay when price is in the middle band.
adaptiveDecay , decayMinMult , decayPerATR , decayMaxMult : scale decay with ATR distance from the nearest “target” band (top if hot, bottom if cold).
Midpoint bias
useMidBias : enable/disable drift above/below midpoint.
midDeadFrac : width of neutral (no-drift) zone around mid.
midBiasPerBar : max drift per bar at the box edge.
Visuals (all default to OFF for a clean chart)
Plot Heat line + Show 0/±80 lines (only shows thresholds if Heat line is on).
Hot/Cold thresholds & transparency floors for background shading.
Push markers (PU/PD).
Heat score table : toggle on; choose any corner.
Tuning quick-starts
Daily trending equities : lookback 40–60; epsATR 0.10–0.25; gainBase 12–18; gainPerStreak 0.5–1.5; gainPer1ATRBrk 1–2; decayPct 3–6; adaptiveDecay ON (decayPerATR 0.5–0.8).
Intraday / noisy : raise epsATR and tickBuff to filter noise; keep decayPct modest so Heat can build.
Weekly swing : longer lookback/atrLen; slightly lower decayPct so regimes persist.
Alerts (included)
New window HIGH (push-up)
New window LOW (push-down)
Heat turned HOT (crosses above your Hot threshold)
Heat turned COLD (crosses below your Cold threshold)
Best practices & notes
Use QHI as a pressure gauge , not a standalone system—combine with your entry/exit plan and risk rules.
On thin symbols, increase epsATR and/or tickBuff to avoid spurious pushes.
Gap days can register large pushes; ATR scaling helps but consider context.
Want the Heat in a separate pane? Use the companion panel version; keep this overlay for background/box visuals.
Pine v6. Warm-up: values appear as soon as one bar of window history exists.
TL;DR
QHI quantifies how hard price is leaning on a consolidation edge.
It’s ATR-adaptive, streak- and magnitude-aware, and cools off intelligently when momentum fades.
Watch for thermals (background), the score (−100..+100), and fresh push alerts to time entries in the direction of pressure.
