Market Internal Pivots by SyntaxGeekThis indicator combines simple pivot detection with market breadth ratios.
The thought was to show market breadth strength or weakness where price was making potential pivots.
Lookback can be adjusted and currently it supports NYSE and NASDAQ market breadth.
Configuration is limited given the simplicity but live breadth printout can be displayed at current candle.
Max label count is at 500 but the indicator makes use of the visible chart library and will redraw old pivot labels when scrolling back, up to 500.
Considering that market breadth data is only available during RTH, do not expect data during ETH sessions. I've only tested this up to 1hr timeframe so I can't guarantee higher timeframes will present correctly.
Feel free to leave feedback, happy trading!

VIX Futures Basis StrategyVIX Futures Basis Strategy
The VIX Futures Basis Strategy is a trading approach that takes advantage of the unique characteristics of the VIX index and its futures market. The VIX, often referred to as the "fear index," measures market expectations of near-term volatility. This strategy focuses on how the VIX futures contracts behave in relation to the spot VIX index and seeks to capitalize on the market's contango and backwardation phases.
Key Concepts:
VIX Index and VIX Futures:
The VIX index reflects the market's expectation of volatility over the next 30 days.
VIX futures allow traders to speculate on the future value of the VIX index.
Contango and Backwardation:
Contango occurs when the futures price is higher than the spot price, often indicating that the market expects volatility to rise in the future.
Backwardation is when the futures price is lower than the spot price, suggesting that the market expects a decrease in volatility.
Basis:
The basis is the difference between the futures price and the spot price. This strategy examines the basis for two consecutive VIX futures contracts.
Strategy Overview:
The VIX Futures Basis Strategy uses the relationship between the VIX index and its futures contracts to generate trading signals:
Long Position on Contango:
When both the front month and the second month VIX futures contracts are in contango (their prices are above the spot VIX index by a specified threshold), the strategy takes a long position.
This implies an expectation that the market will move from a state of expected higher future volatility to a more stable state, allowing profits to be made as the futures prices converge toward the spot price.
Closing Position on Backwardation:
If the basis for both futures contracts indicates backwardation (their prices are below the spot VIX index by a threshold), the strategy closes any long positions.
This condition suggests that the market anticipates decreasing volatility, and closing positions helps to avoid potential losses.

Trend LinesThis script, titled "Trend Lines," is designed to detect and plot significant trend lines on a TradingView chart, based on pivot points. It highlights both uptrend and downtrend lines using different colors and allows customization of line styles, including color and thickness. Here's a breakdown of how the script works:
Inputs
Left Bars (lb) and Right Bars (rb): These inputs determine the number of bars to the left and right of a pivot point used to identify significant highs and lows.
Show Pivot Points: A boolean input to display markers at detected pivot points on the chart.
Show Old Line as Dashed: A boolean input to display older trend lines as dashed for visual distinction.
Uptrend Line Color (ucolor) and Downtrend Line Color (dcolor): Color inputs to customize the appearance of uptrend and downtrend lines.
Uptrend Line Thickness (uthickness) and Downtrend Line Thickness (dthickness): Inputs to adjust the thickness of the trend lines.
Calculations
Pivot Highs and Lows: The script calculates potential pivot highs and lows by looking at lb bars to the left and rb bars to the right. If a bar's high is the highest (or low is the lowest) within this window, it is considered a pivot point.
Trend Lines: The script connects the most recent and previous pivot highs to form downtrend lines, and the most recent and previous pivot lows to form uptrend lines. These lines are drawn with the specified color and thickness.
Angles: The angle of each trend line is calculated to determine whether the trend is strengthening or weakening. If the trend changes significantly, the line's extension is adjusted accordingly.
Plotting
Pivot Point Markers: If Show Pivot Points is enabled, markers labeled "H" for highs and "L" for lows are plotted at the pivot points.
Trend Lines: The script draws lines between pivot points, coloring them according to the trend direction (uptrend or downtrend). If Show Old Line as Dashed is enabled, the script sets older lines to a dashed style to indicate they are no longer the most recent trend lines.
This script is useful for traders who want to visually identify key support and resistance levels based on historical price action, helping them to make more informed trading decisions. The customization options allow traders to tailor the appearance of the trend lines to suit their personal preferences or charting style.

Market Cycle Phases IndicatorOverview
The Market Cycle Phases Indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify and visualize the different phases of market cycles. By distinguishing between Accumulation, Uptrend, Distribution, and Downtrend phases, this indicator provides a clear and color-coded representation of market conditions, aiding in better decision-making and strategy development. It is especially useful for long-term investors to observe and understand market cycles over extended periods. The phases are color-coded for easy identification: Green for Accumulation, Blue for Uptrend, Yellow for Distribution, and Red for Downtrend.
Key Features
Identifies four key market phases: Accumulation, Uptrend, Distribution, and Downtrend
Uses a combination of moving averages and volatility measures
Color-coded background for easy visualization of market phases
Adjustable parameters for moving average length, volatility length, and volatility threshold
Plots the moving average and Average True Range (ATR) for reference
Suitable for both short-term trading and long-term investing
Concepts Underlying the Calculations
The calculations behind the Market Cycle Phases Indicator are straightforward, combining the principles of moving averages and volatility measures:
Moving Average (MA): A simple moving average is used to determine the overall trend direction.
Average True Range (ATR): This measures market volatility over a specified period.
Volatility Threshold: A multiplier is applied to the ATR to distinguish between high and low volatility conditions.
How It Works
The indicator first calculates a moving average (MA) of the closing prices and the Average True Range (ATR) to measure market volatility. Based on the position of the price relative to the MA and the current volatility level, the indicator determines the current market phase:
Accumulation Phase: Price is below the MA, and volatility is low (Green background). This phase often indicates a period of consolidation and potential buying interest before an uptrend.
Uptrend Phase: Price is above the MA, and volatility is high (Blue background). This phase represents a strong upward movement in price, often driven by increased buying activity.
Distribution Phase: Price is above the MA, and volatility is low (Yellow background). This phase suggests a period of consolidation at the top of an uptrend, where selling interest may start to increase.
Downtrend Phase: Price is below the MA, and volatility is high (Red background). This phase indicates a strong downward movement in price, often driven by increased selling activity.
How Traders Can Use It
Traders can use the Market Cycle Phases Indicator to:
Identify potential entry and exit points based on market phase transitions.
Confirm trends and avoid false signals by considering both trend direction and volatility.
Develop and refine trading strategies tailored to specific market conditions.
Enhance risk management by recognizing periods of high and low volatility.
Observe long-term market cycles to make informed investment decisions.
Example Usage Instructions
Add the Market Cycle Phases Indicator to your chart.
Adjust the input parameters as needed:
Base Length: Default is 50.
Volatility Length: Default is 14.
Volatility Threshold: Default is 1.5.
Observe the color-coded background to identify the current market phase
Use the identified phases to inform your trading decisions:
Consider buying during the Accumulation or Uptrend phases.
Consider selling or shorting during the Distribution or Downtrend phases.
Combine with other indicators and analysis techniques for comprehensive market insights.
By incorporating the Market Cycle Phases Indicator into your trading toolkit, you can gain a clearer understanding of market dynamics and enhance your ability to navigate different market conditions, making it a valuable asset for long-term investing.
Prometheus Black-Scholes Option PricesThe Black-Scholes Model is an option pricing model developed my Fischer Black and Myron Scholes in 1973 at MIT. This is regarded as the most accurate pricing model and is still used today all over the world. This script is a simulated Black-Scholes model pricing model, I will get into why I say simulated.
What is an option?
An option is the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell 100 shares of a certain stock, for calls or puts respective, at a certain price, on a certain date (assuming European style options, American options can be exercised early). The reason these agreements, these contracts exist is to provide traders with leverage. Buying 1 contract to represent 100 shares of the underlying, more often than not, at a cheaper price. That is why the price of the option, the premium , is a small number. If an option costs $1.00 we pay $100.00 for it because 100 shares * 1 dollar per share = 100 dollars for all the shares. When a trader purchases a call on stock XYZ with a strike of $105 while XYZ stock is trading at $100, if XYZ stock moves up to $110 dollars before expiration the option has $5 of intrinsic value. You have the right to buy something at $105 when it is trading at $110. That agreement is way more valuable now, as a result the options premium would increase. That is a quick overview about how options are traded, let's get into calculating them.
Inputs for the Black-Scholes model
To calculate the price of an option we need to know 5 things:
Current Price of the asset
Strike Price of the option
Time Till Expiration
Risk-Free Interest rate
Volatility
The price of a European call option 𝐶 is given by:
𝐶 = 𝑆0 * Φ(𝑑1) − 𝐾 * 𝑒^(−𝑟 * 𝑇) * Φ(𝑑2)
where:
𝑆0 is the current price of the underlying asset.
𝐾 is the strike price of the option.
𝑟 is the risk-free interest rate.
𝑇 is the time to expiration.
Φ is the cumulative distribution function of the standard normal distribution.
𝑑1 and 𝑑2 are calculated as:
𝑑1 = (ln(𝑆0 / 𝐾) + (𝑟 + (𝜎^2 / 2)) * 𝑇) / (𝜎 * sqrt(𝑇))
𝑑2= 𝑑1 - (𝜎 * sqrt(𝑇))
𝜎 is the volatility of the underlying asset.
The price of a European put option 𝑃 is given by:
𝑃 = 𝐾 * 𝑒^(−𝑟 * 𝑇) * Φ(−𝑑2) − 𝑆0 * Φ(−𝑑1)
where 𝑑1 and 𝑑2 are as defined above.
Key Assumptions of the Black-Scholes Model
The price of the underlying asset follows a lognormal distribution.
There are no transaction costs or taxes.
The risk-free interest rate and volatility of the underlying asset are constant.
The underlying asset does not pay dividends during the life of the option.
The markets are efficient, meaning that all known information is already reflected in the prices.
Options can only be exercised at expiration (European-style options).
Understanding the Script
Here I have arrows pointing to specific spots on the table. They point to Historical Volatility and Inputted DTE . Inputted DTE is a value the user may input to calculate premium for options that expire in that many days. Historical Volatility , is the value calculated by this code.
length = 252 // One year of trading days
hv = ta.stdev(math.log(close / close ), length) * math.sqrt(365)
And then made daily like the Black-Scholes model needs from this step in the code.
hv_daily = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "1D", hv)
The user has the option to input their own volatility to the Script. I will get into why that may be advantageous in a moment. If the user chooses to do so the Script will change which value it is using as so.
hv_in_use = which_sig == false ? hv_daily : sig
There is a lot going on in this image but bare with me, it will all make sense by the end. The column to the far left of both the green and maroon colored columns represent the strike price of the contract, if the numbers are white that means the contract is out of the money, gray means in the money. If you remember from the calculation this represents the price to buy or sell shares at, for calls or puts respective. The column second from the left shows a value for Simulated Market Price . This is a necessary part of this script so we can show changes in implied volatility. See, when we go to our brokerages and look at options prices, sure the price was calculated by a pricing model, but that is rarely the true price of the model. Market participant sentiment affects this value as their estimates for future volatility, Implied Volatility changes.
For example, if a call option is supposed to be worth $1.00 from the pricing model, however everyone is bullish on the stock and wants to buy calls, the premium may go to $1.20 from $1.00 because participants juice up the Implied Volatility . Higher Implied Volatility generally means higher premium, given enough time to expiration. Buying an option at $0.80 when it should be worth $1.00 due to changes in sentiment is a big part of the Quant Trading industry.
Of course I don't have access to an actual exchange so get prices, so I modeled participant decisions by adding or subtracting a small random value on the "perfect premium" from the Black-Scholes model, and solving for implied volatility using the Newton-Raphson method.
It is like when we have speed = distance / time if we know speed and time , we can solve for distance .
This is what models the changing Implied Volatility in the table. The other column in the table, 3rd from the left, is the Black-Scholes model price without the changes of a random number. Finally, the 4th column from the left is that Implied Volatility value we calculated with the modified option price.
More on Implied Volatility
Implied Volatility represents the future expected volatility of an asset. As it is the value in the future it is not know like Historical Volatility, only projected. We provide the user with the option to enter their own Implied Volatility to start with for better modeling of options close to expiration. If you want to model options 1 day from expiration you will probably have to enter a higher Implied Volatility so that way the prices will be higher. Since the underlying is so close to expiration they are traded so much and traders manipulate their Implied Volatility , increasing their value. Be safe while trading these!
Thank you all for clicking on my indicator and reading this description! Happy coding, Happy trading, Be safe!

HTF TriangleHTF Triangle by ZeroHeroTrading aims at detecting ascending and descending triangles using higher time frame data, without repainting nor misalignment issues.
It addresses user requests for combining Ascending Triangle and Descending Triangle into one indicator.
Ascending triangles are defined by an horizontal upper trend line and a rising lower trend line. It is a chart pattern used in technical analysis to predict the continuation of an uptrend.
Descending triangles are defined by a falling upper trend line and an horizontal lower trend line. It is a chart pattern used in technical analysis to predict the continuation of a downtrend.
This indicator can be useful if you, like me, believe that higher time frames can offer a broader perspective and provide clearer signals, smoothing out market noise and showing longer-term trends.
You can change the indicator settings as you see fit to tighten or loosen the detection, and achieve the best results for your use case.
Features
It draws the detected ascending and descending triangles on the chart.
It supports alerting when a detection occurs.
It allows for selecting ascending and/or descending triangle detection.
It allows for setting the higher time frame to run the detection on.
It allows for setting the minimum number of consecutive valid higher time frame bars to fit the pattern criteria.
It allows for setting a high/low factor detection criteria to apply on higher time frame bars high/low as a proportion of the distance between the reference bar high/low and open/close.
It allows for turning on an adjustment of the triangle using highest/lowest values within valid higher time frame bars.
Settings
Ascending checkbox: Turns on/off ascending triangle detection. Default is on.
Descending checkbox: Turns on/off descending triangle detection. Default is on.
Higher Time Frame dropdown: Selects higher time frame to run the detection on. It must be higher than, and a multiple of, the chart's timeframe. Default is 5 minutes.
Valid Bars Minimum field: Sets minimum number of consecutive valid higher time frame bars to fit the pattern criteria. Default is 3. Minimum is 1.
High/Low Factor checkbox: Turns on/off high/low factor detection criteria. Default is on.
High/Low Factor field: Sets high/low factor to apply on higher time frame bars high/low as a proportion of the distance between the reference bar high/low and open/close. Default is 0. Minimum is 0. Maximum is 1.
Adjust Triangle checkbox: Turns on/off triangle adjustment using highest/lowest values within valid higher time frame bars. Default is on.
Detection Algorithm Notes
The detection algorithm recursively selects a higher time frame bar as reference. Then it looks at the consecutive higher time frame bars (as per the requested number of minimum valid bars) as follows:
Ascending Triangle
Low must be higher than previous bar.
Open/close max value must be lower than (or equal to) reference bar high.
When high/low factor criteria is turned on, high must be higher than (or equal to) reference bar open/close max value plus high/low factor proportion of the distance between reference bar high and open/close max value.
Descending Triangle
High must be lower than previous bar.
Open/close min value must be higher than (or equal to) reference bar low.
When high/low factor criteria is turned on, low must be lower than (or equal to) reference bar open/close min value minus high/low factor proportion of the distance between reference bar low and open/close min value.
MM Sector Intraday TrackerWhat this script does:
This script tracks the percent that price has moved from the opening print of each of the 9 sector ETFs. It color codes the values so you can see which sectors are down (red color) and which sectors are up (green color). If a sector is only up or down half of one ATR, it the color will be light, but if it is beyond half of one ATR, it is a darker color.
How this script works:
It simply measures the distance that price has moved from the opening print today, and presents that information in an easy to read table on your chart.
How to use this script:
If all sectors are moving in one direction, it indicates that the entire market is in a trend day in that direction. You can use this information to decide which direction you should be trading (ie. with trend). For example, in order for there to be healthy bullish moves in the market, you would want this indicator to show you that all sectors are green, or at least that some sectors are green, which would indicate that there is healthy rotation of capital across the market sectors.
What makes this script original:
Most indicators and even the TradingView watchlist measure the percent changed on the day from the closing price of a stock on the prior trading day, essentially telling you what sentiment is since yesterday. This script tells you the sentiment today since it is priced from the opening print.
ToxicJ3ster - Day Trading SignalsThis Pine Script™ indicator, "ToxicJ3ster - Signals for Day Trading," is designed to assist traders in identifying key trading signals for day trading. It employs a combination of Moving Averages, RSI, Volume, ATR, ADX, Bollinger Bands, and VWAP to generate buy and sell signals. The script also incorporates multiple timeframe analysis to enhance signal accuracy. It is optimized for use on the 5-minute chart.
Purpose:
This script uniquely combines various technical indicators to create a comprehensive and reliable day trading strategy. Each indicator serves a specific purpose, and their integration is designed to provide multiple layers of confirmation for trading signals, reducing false signals and increasing trading accuracy.
1. Moving Averages: These are used to identify the overall trend direction. By calculating short and long period Moving Averages, the script can detect bullish and bearish crossovers, which are key signals for entering and exiting trades.
2. RSI Filtering: The Relative Strength Index (RSI) helps filter signals by ensuring trades are only taken in favorable market conditions. It detects overbought and oversold levels and trends within the RSI to confirm market momentum.
3. Volume and ATR Conditions: Volume and ATR multipliers are used to identify significant market activity. The script checks for volume spikes and volatility to confirm the strength of trends and avoid false signals.
4. ADX Filtering: The ADX is used to confirm the strength of a trend. By filtering out weak trends, the script focuses on strong and reliable signals, enhancing the accuracy of trade entries and exits.
5. Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands provide additional context for the trend and help identify potential reversal points. The script uses Bollinger Bands to avoid false signals and ensure trades are taken in trending markets.
6. Higher Timeframe Analysis: This feature ensures that signals align with broader market trends by using higher timeframe Moving Averages for trend confirmation. It adds a layer of robustness to the signals generated on the 5-minute chart.
7. VWAP Integration: VWAP is used for intraday trading signals. By calculating the VWAP and generating buy and sell signals based on its crossover with the price, the script provides additional confirmation for trade entries.
8. MACD Analysis: The MACD line, signal line, and histogram are calculated to generate additional buy/sell signals. The MACD is used to detect changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend.
9. Alert System: Custom alerts are integrated to notify traders of potential trading opportunities based on the signals generated by the script.
How It Works:
- Trend Detection: The script calculates short and long period Moving Averages and identifies bullish and bearish crossovers to determine the trend direction.
- Signal Filtering: RSI, Volume, ATR, and ADX are used to filter and confirm signals, ensuring trades are taken in strong and favorable market conditions.
- Multiple Timeframe Analysis: The script uses higher timeframe Moving Averages to confirm trends, aligning signals with broader market movements.
- Additional Confirmations: VWAP, MACD, and Bollinger Bands provide multiple layers of confirmation for buy and sell signals, enhancing the reliability of the trading strategy.
Usage:
- Customize the input parameters to suit your trading strategy and preferences.
- Monitor the generated signals and alerts to make informed trading decisions.
- This script is made to work best on the 5-minute chart.

Markov Chains: A stochastic process where the probability of moving to the next state depends only on the current state, not on the sequence of events that preceded it.
Logarithmic Returns: Used to normalize price changes and identify states based on significant movements.
Transition Matrices: Utilized to store and calculate the probabilities of moving from one state to another.
How It Works
The indicator first calculates the logarithmic returns of the stock price to identify significant movements. Based on these returns, it determines the current state (Uptrend, Downtrend, or Sideways). It then updates the transition matrices to keep track of how often the price moves from one state to another. Using these matrices, the indicator calculates the probabilities of transitioning to each state and displays this information on the chart.
How Traders Can Use It
Traders can use the Markov Chain Trend Indicator to:
Identify Market Trends: Quickly determine if the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or sideways state.
Predict Future Movements: Use the transition probabilities to forecast potential market movements and make informed trading decisions.
Enhance Trading Strategies: Combine with other technical indicators to refine entry and exit points based on predicted trends.
Example Usage Instructions
Add the Markov Chain Trend Indicator to your TradingView chart.
Observe the background color to quickly identify the current market state:
Green for Uptrend, Red for Downtrend, Gray for Sideways
Check the dashboard label to see the probabilities of transitioning to each state.
Use these probabilities to anticipate market movements and adjust your trading strategy accordingly.
Combine the indicator with other technical analysis tools for more robust decision-making.
Consistent ATR Trailing Stop (ATR, 1m based) [nn1]This indicator implements a Consistent ATR (Average True Range) Trailing Stop that maintains uniform behavior across various chart timeframes. It's designed to provide traders with a reliable tool for setting dynamic stop-loss levels that adapt to market volatility while remaining consistent regardless of the chosen chart interval.
Key Features:
1. Consistent ATR Calculation: The indicator calculates the ATR based on 1-minute data, regardless of the current chart timeframe. This ensures that the ATR value remains consistent across different intervals (e.g., 10s, 15s, 30s, 60s), providing a stable base for the trailing stop.
2. Dynamic Trailing Stop: The trailing stop adjusts based on the ATR, moving up in uptrends and down in downtrends to protect profits while allowing room for price fluctuations.
3. Trend Detection: The indicator determines the trend based on the price's relationship to the trailing stop, switching between long and short modes as the trend changes.
4. Visual Cues: The trailing stop line changes color to indicate the current trend (green for uptrends, red for downtrends) and briefly turns yellow during trend changes. Small circles below or above the price action further highlight the current trend direction.
5. Information Display: A label shows the current ATR value and trend direction, providing at-a-glance information to the trader.
6. Trend Change Highlights: The background briefly changes color when a trend change occurs, drawing attention to potential trading opportunities or exit points.
Usage:
- ATR Length: Set the number of periods for the ATR calculation. This is based on 1-minute data, so a value of 14 represents 14 minutes of data.
- ATR Multiplier: Adjust how far the trailing stop is placed from the price. Higher values create a wider stop, allowing for more price movement before triggering.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who:
- Use multiple timeframes in their analysis and want consistent signals across charts.
- Seek a dynamic stop-loss method that adapts to market volatility.
- Want clear visual cues for trend direction and changes.
By providing a consistent ATR-based trailing stop across different timeframes, this indicator helps traders maintain a unified approach to their trading strategy, regardless of the chart interval they are viewing.
Lines of Chaos (ATR/ADR Levels)Lines of Chaos Indicator
This script is designed to provide traders with ATR (Average True Range) and ADR (Average Daily Range) support and resistance levels.
How it Works:
Support and Resistance Lines: The script plots ATR/ADR-based support and resistance lines based on a moving average of the last ATR/ADR Length days, the previous day's close, and the current day's open. Changing the ATR/ADR Length value changes the number of days of data to average.
EMA: The EMA is colored red when the ticker is potentially bearish. The EMA is colored green when the ticker is potentially bullish. Changing the EMA Length changes the number of data bars to average.
Default Settings: The default settings are optimized for most trading environments.
Key Features:
ATR & ADR Calculation: You can use ATR, ADR, or both. ATR is recommended for most scenarios.
Customizable Lengths: Adjust the ATR/ADR Length to refine the average calculation to your preference, with 14 being the standard value.
EMA for Market Bias: The EMA helps determine the ticker bias. It is colored green when the market is above the average price and red when below. This allows you to more easily determine whether or not the ADR/ATR levels are valid.
Versatile Usage: Suitable for various trading types, ensuring broad applicability across different market conditions.
How to Use:
Bounces off Levels: When the price bounces off a support/resistance level, the price will likely respect this level. This indicates that the price is unlikely to exceed the ticker's average volatility.
Breakthroughs of Levels: When the price breaks through a support/resistance level, the price will likely continue beyond this level. This indicates that the price has moved beyond that ticker's average volatility.
ATR/ADR Support and Resistance LevelsATR/ADR Support and Resistance Levels Indicator
This script is designed to provide traders with precise ATR (Average True Range) and ADR (Average Daily Range) support and resistance levels. It can be effectively used to identify price breakouts or rejections near these critical lines and assist in confirming trend retests.
How It Works:
Support and Resistance Lines: The script plots ATR/ADR-based support and resistance lines, which can be toggled on or off.
Daily Data Integration: It incorporates daily open and close prices to enhance the accuracy of the support and resistance levels.
Clear Visuals: The indicator uses distinct colors for support (green) and resistance (red) levels, providing clear visual cues.
Default Settings: The default settings are optimized for most trading environments. Adjusting the ATR/ADR Length can fine-tune the indicator's responsiveness to market movements.
Key Features:
ATR & ADR Calculation: Choose between using ATR, ADR, or both. ATR is recommended for most scenarios.
Customizable Lengths: Adjust the ATR/ADR Length to refine the average calculation to your preference, with 14 being the standard value.
EMA for Market Bias: The EMA helps determine the ticker bias. It is colored green when the market is above the average price and red when it is below. This allows you to more easily determine whether or not the ADR/ATR levels are valid.
Versatile Usage: Suitable for various trading types, ensuring broad applicability across different market conditions.
How to Use:
ATR vs ADR: You should use ADR if you are day trading AND do not want to include gap data in the levels. It is recommended you use ATR.
Bounces off Levels: When price bounces off of a support/resistance level, it is very likely that price will respect this level. This indicates that price is unlikely to move beyond the ticker's average volatility. You should wait for an additional bounce to confirm.
Breakthroughs of Levels: When price breaks through a support/resistance level, it is very likely that price will continue beyond this level. This indicates that price has moved beyond that ticker's average volatility. You should wait for a bounce off the level to confirm.
This indicator is a valuable tool for traders seeking to enhance their technical analysis with support and resistance levels based on ATR and ADR calculations. It is perfect for identifying key price points and understanding market trends.
Market Inner Strength IndexThe "Market Inner Strength Index" is an indicator designed to visually represent the market strength by analyzing the six major sectors: XLK, XLV, XLF, XLY, XLC and XLI. These sectors represent more than 80% of the SPX index, making their performance crucial for understanding overall market conditions. The indicator calculates the individual strengths of these sectors and combines them to provide an overall market strength index, helping to identify scenarios of sector rotation, euphoria, or panic.
Rationale:
The six major sectors (XLK, XLV, XLF, XLY, XLC, XLI) are essential as they encompass a significant portion of the SPX index. Typically, money rotates among these sectors, meaning some sectors grow while others decline. Rare occasions where all sectors move in the same direction can indicate market-wide euphoria (upwards) or panic (downwards). The Market Inner Strength Index helps track sector performance and identify these scenarios.
Methodology:
Script requests current timeframe data for each of the sectors and assigns scores, based on its performance. It will work best on the daily and higher timeframes but can also be used on the lower timeframes.
Score assignment:
If the sector is green (positive performance) for the given timeframe, it receives positive points.
If the sector is red (negative performance), it receives negative points.
If the current close price is above the previous period high, additional positive points are assigned.
If the current close price is below the previous period low, additional negative points are assigned.
The scores for the six sectors are averaged to compute a total score, which is plotted on the chart. A table displays the performance of each sector, color-coded based on their scores for the last period.
Parameters:
Neutral Zone : Define the neutral zone threshold.
Heikin Ashi : Option to use Heikin Ashi candles instead of normal ones.
Show Divergency : Option to show divergences on the chart. Divergence occurs when the SPY is bullish, but the sector score is bearish, or vice versa. This option will only work on SPY chart.
Sector selections : Enable/disable specific sectors in score calculation.
Groupings [SS]Hey everyone,
Releasing this indicator called groupings.
If you watch/read my analyses on Tradingview, you will have heard me talk about groups. Groups is something I invented. What it is, is just taking the Euclidean Distance (ED) of the previous 5 candles in a specified period (i.e. daily timeframe, weekly, 1 minute, 5 minute, etc.) and rounding the ED up to a whole number.
I have had great success in this approach because the information provided is broad enough to give leniency in interpretation but narrow enough to hone in on potential moves and target prices.
This indicator is a simplified version of how I do groupings in other software, however it is no less powerful!
What do groups tell us?
A "group" takes into account the previous 5 candles, using the ED. This gives Pinescript a general idea of what the short term trend looks like mathematically. From there, Pinescript can look for other groups that looked similar to how this current trend looks. From there, it can offer us insights into what tends to happen in candles subsequent to this group. For example, the ATR range, the close range and whether it is bearish or bullish.
And that is precisely how this indicator operates, Pinescript will calculate the group of the previous 5 canndles in the timeframe period you are looking at. It will then lookback over the designated "train" length and identify previous groups, and what happened in those groups. It looks specifically at:
- What is that average High ATR associated with that group,
- What is the average Low ATR associated with that group,
- What is the average close range associated with that group,
- What is the sentiment associated with that group.
How to use the indicator?
In terms of use, the indicator is relatively simple to use. It will plot three lines, a red for the anticipated low range, a green for the anticipated high range and purple for the opening range (where the current candle opened at).
In addition, it will plot a dot for the anticipated close area. When the dot is green, it expects a bullish close. When the dot is red, it expects a bearish close.
The indicator is going to give you a heads up as to whether we are in a bullish group, what you can anticipate the high and low range to be and where you can anticipate the close.
Of course, its not always exact, as in the image above you can see it underestimated the high range and over-estimated the low range; however, we did close within the anticipate range.
The indicator is meant to help you with your bias. I will reference this indicator on the daily timeframe at open to see what the expectations are for the day.
However, you can use it on any timeframe you wish.
Other functions:
The indicator can plot the EMA 9, 21 and 5. These are the 3 indicators I like and I find them helpful for both intraday and swing trading. However, they can be toggled off if you do not wish to view them.
In addition, the EMAs will be green if the ticker is trending above the EMA 21 (which is a critical EMA for me to determine the immediate sentiment). If the ticker is below, they will turn red.
There is also the ability to adjust the train time. The default is 1,000 candles back, but I usually have it on 1500. If you have a lot of indicators and a lot going on, on your chart, you may find that 1500 is too much and it will lag/error. That’s okay, 500 candles is sufficient and will not put a lot of stress on Pinescript.
Concluding remarks
Its overall a fairly simple concept and indicator, but it has been a neat and helpful / insightful invention. I originally developed this using R and happy to have now brought it into Pinescript.
I hope you enjoy!
Safe trades everyone!
Flush Percent RangeFans of Woodies CCI may recognize the approach to this one. This is my attempt at using the same methods but for taking the highs and lows into account without the standard deviation of the CCI. The smoothness of other oscillators may not be ideal however the Williams Percent Range is a fast stochastic that also operates within a channel. This provides an alternative yet still complex view for the virtuoso. A unique feature is total utilization of the weighted moving average, from the standard to the more complex. A fun fact is the Hull Moving Average is actually calculated using weighted moving averages.
How to use:
The base length is for accuracy, the fast length is for catching all the moves(even the wrong ones sometimes.)
The bars back option will not flip the histogram/base trend to its bullish/bearish alternative until the base plot remains on the latter half of the oscillator for a certain number of bars. This can be set to zero if desired.
The factor controls the chop on the various levels. A higher number will increase it.
The oscillator levels are measuring slope, price relative to the average, and a summation of percent changes between the two. Both the baseline/histogram and the levels have color coding for bullishness, bearishness, and indecision(depending on the factor.) The fast line matches the indecision color by default. This is all customizable.
There are many potential ways to trade with this indicator. From hooks back toward the trend and range line crossovers to divergence and reversals. It's important to note the current performance of the oscillator levels. Time cycles may come in handy along with other forecasting tools.
Lastly, there are optional linear regression lines plotted on the chart. They're synchronized to the lengths in the oscillator. This is an additional visual aid to provide context to the direction of the channel.
Overall the Flush Percent Range is for analyzing multiple regression models within a single price channel. No smoothing, fast averages, and specified timeframes of highs/lows. Credit to Larry Williams for the original calculation and Ken Woods for design/methodology inspiration.
Symbols Correlation, built for pair tradingOverview:
This script is designed for pairs trading. If you are not familiar with pairs trading, I suggest learning about it, as it can be a profitable strategy in neutral markets (or neutral trends between two assets). The correlation between two assets is the foundation of pairs trading, and without it, the chances of making a profit are low.
Correlation can be described in two opposite ways:
1: Absolute positive correlation (meaning the asset prices move together).
-1: Absolute negative correlation (meaning the asset prices move in opposite directions).
Any value between 1 and -1 indicates some degree of correlation, but generally, values higher than 0.7 or lower than -0.7 are considered significant.
Features:
Typically, correlation is measured using the closing prices. This script adds three more correlation studies based on open, high, and low prices. By using all four lines, we can get a better understanding of the pair's correlation.
How to Read This Indicator:
To use this indicator effectively, you need to input your pair as a ratio. For example, if your pair is TSN and ZBH, enter it in the symbol search as: TSN/ZBH
Gray Area : This area indicates "no high correlation" (default is between -0.8 and 0.8, adjustable in the settings).
Gray Line : This represents the close correlation within the "no high correlation" range.
Green Line : This represents the close correlation within the "high correlation" range.
Dot Lines : These represent the open, high, and low correlations.
Example Interpretations:
A : All four lines are close together & the line is green – very good correlation!
B : The line is gray, and the dot lines are apart – not a strong correlation.
C : When the close correlation remains green for a long time, it signals a strong correlation.
Application in Pairs Trading:
In pairs trading, aim for the highest possible correlation, and it is important to have a sustained correlation over a long period. Pairs that correlate only part of the year but not consistently are less reliable for pairs trading.
This is an example for good correlation for pairs trading:
This is an example for bad correlation for pairs trading:
Here is a view of my full indicators when doing pairs trading:
RSI DeviationAn oscillator which de-trends the Relative Strength Index. Rather, it takes a moving average of RSI and plots it's standard deviation from the MA, similar to a Bollinger %B oscillator. This seams to highlight short term peaks and troughs, Indicating oversold and overbought conditions respectively. It is intended to be used with a Dollar Cost Averaging strategy, but may also be useful for Swing Trading, or Scalping on lower timeframes.
When the line on the oscillator line crosses back into the channel, it signals a trade opportunity.
~ Crossing into the band from the bottom, indicates the end of an oversold condition, signaling a potential reversal. This would be a BUY signal.
~ Crossing into the band from the top, indicates the end of an overbought condition, signaling a potential reversal. This would be a SELL signal.
For ease of use, I've made the oscillator highlight the main chart when Overbought/Oversold conditions are occurring, and place fractals upon reversion to the Band. These repaint as they are calculated at close. The earliest trade would occur upon open of the following day.
I have set the default St. Deviation to be 2, but in my testing I have found 1.5 to be quite reliable. By decreasing the St. Deviation you will increase trade frequency, to a point, at the expense of efficiency.
