Relative Directional Index (RDI)🔍 Overview
The Relative Directional Index (RDI) is a hybrid tool that fuses the Average Directional and the Relative Strength Indices (ADX and RSI) into a single, highly visual interface. While the former captures trend strength, the latter reveals momentum shifts and potential exhaustion. Together, they can confirm trend structure, anticipate reversals, and sharpen the timing entries and exits.
📌 Why Combine ADX with RSI?
Most indicators focus on either trend-following (like ADX) or momentum detection (like RSI)—but rarely both. Each comes with trade-offs:
- ADX alone confirms trend strength but ignores momentum.
- RSI alone signals overbought/oversold, but lacks trend context.
The RDI resolves this by integrating both, offering:
- Smarter filters for trend entries
- Early warnings of momentum breakdowns
- More confident signal validation
🧠 Design Note: Fibonacci Harmony
All default values—5, 13, 21—are Fibonacci numbers. This is intentional, as these values reflect the natural rhythm of market cycles, and promote harmonic calibration between price action and indicator logic.
🔥 Key Features
✅ ADX Histogram
- Green bars = trend gaining strength
- Red bars = trend weakening
- Adjustable transparency for visual tuning
✅ ADX Line (Orange)
- Measures trend strength over time
- Rising = accelerating trend
- Falling = trend may be fading
✅ RSI Line (Lemon Yellow)
- Captures momentum surges and slowdowns
- Above 50 = bullish control
- Below 50 = bearish pressure
✅ Trend Strength Squares
- Bright green = strong uptrend
- Bright red = strong downtrend
- Faded colors = range-bound or indecisive
✅ ADX/RSI Crossover Markers
- Yellow square = RSI crosses above ADX → momentum building
- Orange square = ADX crosses above RSI → trend still dominant
✅ Customizable Reference Lines
- Yellow (50) = strong trend threshold
- Red (30) = weak trend zone
- Green (70) = overextended, potential exhaustion

🎯 How to Trade with the RDI
The RDI helps traders identify momentum-supported trends, catch early reversals, and avoid false signals during consolidation.
✅ Trend Confirmation Entries
🔼 Bullish → Enter long on pullbacks or resistance breakouts
- ADX rising above 30
- RSI above 50
- Green trend square visible
🔽 Bearish → Enter short on breakdowns or failed retests
- ADX rising
- RSI below 50
- Red trend square visible
🧯 Exit if RSI crosses back against trend direction or ADX flattens
🚨 Reversal Setups Using Divergence
📈 Bullish Divergence → Long entry after confirmation (e.g. engulfing bar, volume spike)
- Price prints lower low
- RSI prints higher low
- Green triangle
📉 Bearish Divergence → Short entry on breakdown
- Price prints higher high
- RSI prints lower high
- Red triangle
Tip: Stronger if ADX is declining (fading trend strength)
🔂 Breakout Detection via Cross Markers
- Yellow square = RSI > ADX → breakout brewing
- Orange square = ADX > RSI → trend continuation likely
⏸️ Avoid Choppy Markets
- RSI between 45–55
- Faded trend squares
- Flat ADX below 20–30
🧠 Pro Tips
- Combine RDI with VWAPs, moving averages and/or pitchforks
- Watch for alignment between trend and momentum
- Use divergence markers as confirmation, not stand-alone triggers
_______________________________________________________
⚠️ Hidden Divergence (Optional)
The RDI includes optional hidden divergence detection. These signals suggest trend continuation but are off by default. Use with discretion—best in established trends, not sideways markets.
🙈 Hidden Bullish
- Price prints higher low
- RSI prints lower low
🙈 Hidden Bearish
- Price prints lower high
- RSI prints higher high

Momentum-Adjusted Volatility Ratio (MAVR)The Momentum-Adjusted Volatility Ratio (MAVR) indicator is designed to help you understand the strength of price movements relative to the market's volatility. It combines the concepts of rate of change (ROC) and average true range (ATR) and then calculates their ratio, which is then smoothed using an exponential moving average (EMA). Here's a general guide on how to use the MAVR indicator:
Identify the trend: Look for the overall direction of the EMA of the MAVR. When the EMA is above the zero line, it indicates that the momentum is positive and the trend is generally bullish. Conversely, when the EMA is below the zero line, it indicates that the momentum is negative, and the trend is generally bearish.
Assess momentum strength: Pay attention to the distance between the EMA of the MAVR and the zero line. A larger distance indicates a stronger momentum, while a smaller distance suggests weaker momentum. If the EMA of the MAVR moves further away from the zero line, it indicates that the price movement is becoming more robust relative to the market's volatility.
Look for potential entry and exit signals: When the EMA of the MAVR crosses the zero line, it could provide a potential trading signal. For instance, a cross from below to above the zero line may indicate a potential buying opportunity, while a cross from above to below the zero line may signal a potential selling opportunity. Keep in mind that the MAVR indicator should not be used in isolation, and it's essential to combine it with other technical analysis tools and risk management techniques.
Monitor for divergences: Sometimes, the price and the EMA of the MAVR can show divergences. For example, if the price makes a higher high while the EMA of the MAVR makes a lower high, it could signal a bearish divergence, suggesting a potential trend reversal. Similarly, if the price makes a lower low while the EMA of the MAVR makes a higher low, it could indicate a bullish divergence, suggesting a possible trend reversal.
Remember that no indicator is perfect, and the MAVR should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and a solid trading strategy to increase the chances of success. Always use proper risk management techniques to protect your capital.
Strategy Myth-Busting #6 - PSAR+MA+SQZMOM+HVI - [MYN]This is part of a new series we are calling "Strategy Myth-Busting" where we take open public manual trading strategies and automate them. The goal is to not only validate the authenticity of the claims but to provide an automated version for traders who wish to trade autonomously.
Our sixth one we are automating is " I Tested ''7% Profit Per Day" Scalping Strategy 100 Times ( Unexpected Results ) " from " TradeIQ " which claims to have made 175% profit on the 5 min chart of BTCUSD with a having a 61% win rate in just 32 days.
Originally, we mimicked verbatim the indicators and settings TradeIQ was using however weren't getting promising results anything close to the claim so we decided to try and improve on it. We changed the static Parabolic SAR to be adaptive based upon the timeframe. We did this by using an adjustable multiplier for the PSAR Max. Also, In TradeIQ's revised version he substituted Hawkeye's Volume Indicator in lieu of Squeeze Momentum. We found that including both indicators we were getting better results so included them both. Feel free to experiment more. Would love to see how this could be improved on.
This strategy uses a combination of 4 open-source public indicators:
Parabolic Sar (built in)
10 in 1 MA's by hiimannshu
Squeeze Momentum by lazybear
HawkEYE Volume Indicator by lazybear
Trading Rules
5m timeframe and above. We saw equally good results in the higher (3h - 4h) timeframes as well.
Long Entry:
Parabolic Sar shifts below price at last dot above and then previous bar needs to breach above that.
Price action has to be below both MA's and 50MA needs to be above 200MA
Squeeze Momentum needsd to be in green or close to going green
HawkEYE Volume Indicator needs to be show a green bar on the histagram
Short Entry:
Parabolic Sar shifts above price at last dot below and then previous bar needs to breach below that.
Price action needs to be above both MA's and 50MA needs to be below 200MA
Squeeze Momentum needsd to be in red or close to going red
HawkEYE Volume Indicator needs to be show a red bar on the histagram

WVF - OscillatorAnother attempt on making use of CM-Williams-Vix-Fix-Finds-Market-Bottoms from Chris Moody - which is arguably one of the best indicator available on pine and tradingview platform. Every time I revisit this, I get new ideas on applying this method.
I have slightly altered formula to
highest(source)-source/highest(source)
from the original formula
highest(close)-low/highest(close)
Process is simple:
Calculate WVF for OHLC values separately
Calculate momentum on each of the WVF values based on distance from moving average
Plot the candles based on OHLC momentum.
Candle color depends on whether close, open and previous close. If close is higher than open and previous close, we get green coloured candles. If close is lower than previous close and open then we get red coloured candles. In all other cases, we will have silver candles.
High/Low bands are calculated based on median of highest and lowest values of VixFix. We also plot median of close which can be used in some cases.
How to use this to find market bottom. Look for one of the below conditions:
First red candle above high band - which signals momentum of vix fix is about to fall.
First red candle above median line - can be used only if upward momentum of wvf candles are trending well.
Crossunder of wvf candles under high band.
Possible exit scenarios
Green WVF candle formed above WVF high line
Entry is taken on first red candle above median line - but, candles turned green before WVF crossing under median line - may signal our thesis is wrong and price may drop further.
Some examples.
Super D2Momentum Indicator based on previous candle structure over past 40 periods
- Blue is momentum score
- Green = 15 ema
- Red = 50 sma
- orange = 100 sma
The indicator looks at the previous candles differences between open, close, high, and low to determine momentum. A high close relative to open or low indicates very strong momentum for example.
Hurst-Based Trend Persistence w/Poisson Prediction
---
# **Hurst-Based Trend Persistence w/ Poisson Prediction**
## **Introduction**
The **Hurst-Based Trend Persistence with Poisson Prediction** is a **statistically-driven trend-following oscillator** that provides traders with **a structured approach to identifying trend strength, persistence, and potential reversals**.
This indicator combines:
- **Hurst Exponent Analysis** (to measure how persistent or mean-reverting price action is).
- **Color-Coded Trend Detection** (to highlight bullish and bearish conditions).
- **Poisson-Based Trend Reversal Probability Projection** (to anticipate when a trend is likely to end based on statistical models).
By integrating **fractal market theory (Hurst exponent)** with **Poisson probability distributions**, this indicator gives traders a **probability-weighted view of trend duration** while dynamically adapting to market volatility.
---
## **Simplified Explanation (How to Read the Indicator at a Glance)**
1. **If the oscillator line is going up → The trend is strong.**
2. **If the oscillator line is going down → The trend is weakening.**
3. **If the color shifts from red to green (or vice versa), a trend shift has occurred.**
- **Strong trends can change color without weakening** (meaning a bullish or bearish move can remain powerful even as the trend shifts).
4. **A weakening trend does NOT necessarily mean a reversal is coming.**
- The trend may slow down but continue in the same direction.
5. **A strong trend does NOT guarantee it will last.**
- Even a powerful move can **suddenly reverse**, which is why the **Poisson-based background shading** helps anticipate probabilities of change.
---
## **How to Use the Indicator**
### **1. Understanding the Rolling Hurst-Based Trend Oscillator (Main Line)**
The **oscillator line** is based on the **Hurst exponent (H)**, which quantifies whether price movements are:
- **Trending** (values above 0 → momentum-driven, persistent trends).
- **Mean-reverting** (values below 0 → price action is choppy, likely to revert to the mean).
- **Neutral (Random Walk)** (values around 0 → price behaves like a purely stochastic process).
#### **Interpreting the Oscillator:**
- **H > 0.5 → Persistent Trends:**
- Price moves tend to sustain in one direction for longer periods.
- Example: Strong uptrends in bull markets.
- **H < 0.5 → Mean-Reverting Behavior:**
- Price has a tendency to revert back to its mean.
- Example: Sideways markets or fading momentum.
- **H ≈ 0.5 → Random Walk:**
- No clear trend; price is unpredictable.
A **gray dashed horizontal line at 0** serves as a **baseline**, helping traders quickly assess whether the market is **favoring trends or mean reversion**.
---
### **2. Color-Coded Trend Signal (Visual Confirmation of Trend Shifts)**
The oscillator **changes color** based on **price slope** over the lookback period:
- **🟢 Green → Uptrend (Price Increasing)**
- Price is rising relative to the selected lookback period.
- Suggests sustained bullish pressure.
- **🔴 Red → Downtrend (Price Decreasing)**
- Price is falling relative to the selected lookback period.
- Suggests sustained bearish pressure.
#### **How to Use This in Trading**
✔ **Stay in trends until a color change occurs.**
✔ **Use color changes as confirmation for trend reversals.**
✔ **Avoid counter-trend trades when the oscillator remains strongly colored.**
---
### **3. Poisson-Based Trend Reversal Projection (Anticipating Future Shifts)**
The **shaded orange background** represents a **Poisson-based probability estimation** of when the trend is likely to reverse.
- **Darker Orange = Higher Probability of Trend Reversal**
- **Lighter Orange / No Shade = Low Probability of Immediate Reversal**
💡 **The idea behind this model:**
✔ Trends **don’t last forever**, and their duration follows **statistical patterns**.
✔ By calculating the **average historical trend duration**, the indicator predicts **how likely a trend shift is at any given time**.
✔ The **Poisson probability function** is applied to determine the **expected likelihood of a reversal as time progresses**.
---
## **Mathematical Foundations of the Indicator**
This indicator is based on **two primary statistical models**:
### **1. Hurst Exponent & Trend Persistence (Fractal Market Theory)**
- The **Hurst exponent (H)** measures **autocorrelation** in price movements.
- If past trends **persist**, H will be **above 0.5** (meaning trend-following strategies are favorable).
- If past trends tend to **mean-revert**, H will be **below 0.5** (meaning reversal strategies are more effective).
- The **Rolling Hurst Oscillator** calculates this exponent over a moving window to track real-time trend conditions.
#### **Formula Breakdown (Simplified for Traders)**
The Hurst exponent (H) is derived using the **Rescaled Range (R/S) Analysis**:
\
Where:
- **R** = **Range** (difference between max cumulative deviation and min cumulative deviation).
- **S** = **Standard deviation** of price fluctuations.
- **Lookback** = The number of periods analyzed.
---
### **2. Poisson-Based Trend Reversal Probability (Stochastic Process Modeling)**
The **Poisson process** is a **probabilistic model used for estimating time-based events**, applied here to **predict trend reversals based on past trend durations**.
#### **How It Works**
- The indicator **tracks trend durations** (the time between color changes).
- A **Poisson rate parameter (λ)** is computed as:
\
- The **probability of a reversal at any given time (t)** is estimated using:
\
- **As t increases (trend continues), the probability of reversal rises**.
- The indicator **shades the background based on this probability**, visually displaying the likelihood of a **trend shift**.
---
## **Dynamic Adaptation to Market Conditions**
✔ **Volatility-Adjusted Trend Shifts:**
- A **custom volatility calculation** dynamically adjusts the **minimum trend duration** required before a trend shift is recognized.
- **Higher volatility → Requires longer confirmation before switching trend color.**
- **Lower volatility → Allows faster trend shifts.**
✔ **Adaptive Poisson Weighting:**
- **Recent trends are weighted more heavily** using an exponential decay function:
- **Decay Factor (0.618 by default)** prioritizes **recent intervals** while still considering historical trends.
- This ensures the model adapts to changing market conditions.
---
## **Key Takeaways for Traders**
✅ **Identify Persistent Trends vs. Mean Reversion:**
- Use the oscillator line to determine whether the market favors **trend-following or counter-trend strategies**.
✅ **Visual Trend Confirmation via Color Coding:**
- **Green = Uptrend**, **Red = Downtrend**.
- Trend changes help confirm **entry and exit points**.
✅ **Anticipate Trend Reversals Using Probability Models:**
- The **Poisson projection** provides a **statistical edge** in **timing exits before trends reverse**.
✅ **Adapt to Market Volatility Automatically:**
- Dynamic **volatility scaling** ensures the indicator remains effective in **both high and low volatility environments**.
Happy trading and enjoy!
Coppock Curve with Pivot Points and Divergence The Coppock Curve is a long-term price momentum indicator used primarily to recognize major downturns and upturns in a stock market index. It is calculated as a 10-month weighted moving average of the sum of the 14-month rate of change and the 11-month rate of change for the index. It is also known as the "Coppock Guide."
The Coppock formula was introduced in Barron's in 1962 by Edwin Coppock.
The Coppock Curve is a technical indicator that provides long-term buy and sell signals for major stock indexes and related ETFs based on shifts in momentum.
What Does the Coppock Curve Tell You?
The Coppock Curve was originally implemented as a long-term buy and sell indicator for major indices such as the S&P 500 and the Wilshire 5000. Often, it is used with long-term time series such as a candlestick chart, but where each candle contains a month's worth of price information.
The Difference Between the Coppock Curve and Rate of Relative Strength Index (RSI)?
The relative strength index looks at how the current price compares to prior prices, though it is calculated differently than the rate of change (ROC) indicator used in the Coppock Curve calculation. Therefore, these indicators will provide different trade signals and information.
What are those circles?
-These are Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are those triangles?
- These are Pivots . They show when the VPT oscillator might reverse, this is important to know because many times the price action follows this move.
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.
Momentum & Williams %R This strategy join 2 power study indicators on the same plot: Willian %R and Momentum.
Willian %R can indicate the good time for you buy or sale. Less than -80 indicate good buying opportunity . Greater than -20 good sale opportunity.
Momentum can indicate the good price for buy or sale, in other words, can indicate the speed the price goes down or goes up.
By Baldasso, March 2019.
Momentum Sentiment Indicator by mattzabThis indicator uses 3 moving averages and includes volume to display sentiment and momentum.
By default, a 5, 8, and 13 SMA is displayed (black lines).
The colored bands are the corresponding volume weighted moving averages.
When the colored band is above the black line, sentiment is bullish.
Think of the color as being a show of volume, and the black lines as support and resistance.
When the lines are trending up, and colors are above the black lines, an uptrend is in progress.
When the colors are mixed above and below, and the lines are intertwined, it is a ranging market.
The lines operate similar to the Williams Alligator.
Momentum Line StrategyI got the idea of an algorithm using a gap, which would behave a bit like RSI, therefore I called it momentum. Don't know if it's very useful or how to improve it, it can keeps you in trends, however it suffers from whipsawing. My first attempt in programming a strategy.
EdgeXplorer - Momentum EngineMomentum Engine by EdgeXplorer
Momentum Engine is a precision-driven oscillator and trend framework engineered to track market momentum with adaptive clarity. Unlike traditional momentum indicators, this engine blends ATR-based envelope logic, multi-mode oscillator scaling, and real-time directional overlays—all in one responsive system.
Designed for intraday traders and swing strategists alike, Momentum Engine offers a streamlined way to visualize momentum direction, impulse strength, and volatility-adaptive trend zones—with minimal noise and maximum context.
⸻
🔍 What Does Momentum Engine Do?
Momentum Engine visualizes market energy through a volatility-aware oscillator and accompanying trend overlays. It adapts dynamically to price behavior and enables traders to:
• Detect momentum waves with real-time visual cues
• Confirm directional bias using trend overlays and impulse zones
• Switch between Regular and Normalized oscillator modes
• See heatmap-based signal confirmation for crossovers
• View optional info panels, labels, and trend bar colors for clarity
It’s a compact yet powerful system built for discretionary and systematic use.
⸻
⚙️ How It Works – Technical Breakdown
1. Trend Envelope Logic
At its core, Momentum Engine constructs a price envelope using:
• The average of the highest closes and highs (Baseline Length)
• The average of the lowest closes and lows
• A multiplied ATR to scale the distance between upper and lower bounds
These bounds determine trend bias:
• Price above the short side of the channel → Bullish
• Price below the long side → Bearish
• In-between → Neutral
A dynamic midline tracks the central channel axis.
2. Oscillator Wave Calculation
The momentum oscillator reacts to price positioning relative to the envelope:
• In Regular Mode, it shows raw price deviation from the trend channel
• In Normalized Mode, it maps price movement into a 0–100 scale with historical scaling logic
Both modes use smoothing (Smoothing) to reduce noise.
3. Overlay Channel (Optional)
• Displays trend floors (bull) and ceilings (bear) on the price chart
• Color-coded trend shifts appear as pulse circles
• Optionally, bars themselves can be recolored for instant trend recognition
4. Heatmap Signal Zones
The background dynamically changes based on oscillator crossovers:
• Bullish signal → Yellow heatmap
• Bearish signal → Blue heatmap
These zones signal momentum ignition, especially helpful for early entries.

Uptrick: Z-Trend BandsOverview
Uptrick: Z-Trend Bands is a Pine Script overlay crafted to capture high-probability mean-reversion opportunities. It dynamically plots upper and lower statistical bands around an EMA baseline by converting price deviations into z-scores. Once price moves outside these bands and then reenters, the indicator verifies that momentum is genuinely reversing via an EMA-smoothed RSI slope. Signal memory ensures only one entry per momentum swing, and traders receive clear, real-time feedback through customizable bar-coloring modes, a semi-transparent fill highlighting the statistical zone, concise “Up”/“Down” labels, and a live five-metric scoring table.
Introduction
Markets often oscillate between trending and reverting, and simple thresholds or static envelopes frequently misfire when volatility shifts. Standard deviation quantifies how “wide” recent price moves have been, and a z-score transforms each deviation into a measure of how rare it is relative to its own history. By anchoring these bands to an exponential moving average, the script maintains a fluid statistical envelope that adapts instantly to both calm and turbulent regimes. Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) tracks momentum; smoothing RSI with an EMA and observing its slope filters out erratic spikes, ensuring that only genuine momentum flips—upward for longs and downward for shorts—qualify.
Purpose
This indicator is purpose-built for short-term mean-reversion traders operating on lower–timeframe charts. It reveals when price has strayed into the outer 5 percent of its recent range, signaling an increased likelihood of a bounce back toward fair value. Rather than firing on price alone, it demands that momentum follow suit: the smoothed RSI slope must flip in the opposite direction before any trade marker appears. This dual-filter approach dramatically reduces noise-driven, false setups. Traders then see immediate visual confirmation—bar colors that reflect the latest signal and age over time, clear entry labels, and an always-visible table of metric scores—so they can gauge both the validity and freshness of each signal at a glance.
Originality and Uniqueness
Uptrick: Z-Trend Bands stands apart from typical envelope or oscillator tools in four key ways. First, it employs fully normalized z-score bands, meaning ±2 always captures roughly the top and bottom 5 percent of moves, regardless of volatility regime. Second, it insists on two simultaneous conditions—price reentry into the bands and a confirming RSI slope flip—dramatically reducing whipsaw signals. Third, it uses slope-phase memory to lock out duplicate signals until momentum truly reverses again, enforcing disciplined entries. Finally, it offers four distinct bar-coloring schemes (solid reversal, fading reversal, exceeding bands, and classic heatmap) plus a dynamic scoring table, rather than a single, opaque alert, giving traders deep insight into every layer of analysis.
Why Each Component Was Picked
The EMA baseline was chosen for its blend of responsiveness—weighting recent price heavily—and smoothness, which filters market noise. Z-score deviation bands standardize price extremes relative to their own history, adapting automatically to shifting volatility so that “extreme” always means statistically rare. The RSI, smoothed with an EMA before slope calculation, captures true momentum shifts without the false spikes that raw RSI often produces. Slope-phase memory flags prevent repeated alerts within a single swing, curbing over-trading in choppy conditions. Bar-coloring modes provide flexible visual contexts—whether you prefer to track the latest reversal, see signal age, highlight every breakout, or view a continuous gradient—and the scoring table breaks down all five core checks for complete transparency.
Features
This indicator offers a suite of configurable visual and logical tools designed to make reversal signals both robust and transparent:
Dynamic z-score bands that expand or contract in real time to reflect current volatility regimes, ensuring the outer ±zThreshold levels always represent statistically rare extremes.
A smooth EMA baseline that weights recent price more heavily, serving as a fair-value anchor around which deviations are measured.
EMA-smoothed RSI slope confirmation, which filters out erratic momentum spikes by first smoothing raw RSI and then requiring its bar-to-bar slope to flip before any signal is allowed.
Slope-phase memory logic that locks out duplicate buy or sell markers until the RSI slope crosses back through zero, preventing over-trading during choppy swings.
Four distinct bar-coloring modes—Reversal Solid, Reversal Fade, Exceeding Bands, Classic Heat—plus a “None” option, so traders can choose whether to highlight the latest signal, show signal age, emphasize breakout bars, or view a continuous heat gradient within the bands.
A semi-transparent fill between the EMA and the upper/lower bands that visually frames the statistical zone and makes extremes immediately obvious.
Concise “Up” and “Down” labels that plot exactly when price re-enters a band with confirming momentum, keeping chart clutter to a minimum.
A real-time, five-metric scoring table (z-score, RSI slope, price vs. EMA, trend state, re-entry) that updates every two bars, displaying individual +1/–1/0 scores and an averaged Buy/Sell/Neutral verdict for complete transparency.
Calculations
Compute the fair-value EMA over fairLen bars.
Subtract that EMA from current price each bar to derive the raw deviation.
Over zLen bars, calculate the rolling mean and standard deviation of those deviations.
Convert each deviation into a z-score by subtracting the mean and dividing by the standard deviation.
Plot the upper and lower bands at ±zThreshold × standard deviation around the EMA.
Calculate raw RSI over rsiLen bars, then smooth it with an EMA of length rsiEmaLen.
Derive the RSI slope by taking the difference between the current and previous smoothed RSI.
Detect a potential reentry when price exits one of the bands on the prior bar and re-enters on the current bar.
Require that reentry coincide with an RSI slope flip (positive for a lower-band reentry, negative for an upper-band reentry).
On first valid reentry per momentum swing, fire a buy or sell signal and set a memory flag; reset that flag only when the RSI slope crosses back through zero.
For each bar, assign scores of +1, –1, or 0 for the z-score direction, RSI slope, price vs. EMA, trend-state, and reentry status.
Average those five scores; if the result exceeds +0.1, label “Buy,” if below –0.1, label “Sell,” otherwise “Neutral.”
Update bar colors, the semi-transparent fill, reversal labels, and the scoring table every two bars to reflect the latest calculations.
How It Actually Works
On each new candle, the EMA baseline and band widths update to reflect current volatility. The RSI is smoothed and its slope recalculated. The script then looks back one bar to see if price exited either band and forward to see if it reentered. If that reentry coincides with an appropriate RSI slope flip—and no signal has yet been generated in that swing—a concise label appears. Bar colors refresh according to your selected mode, and the scoring table updates to show which of the five conditions passed or failed, along with the overall verdict. This process repeats seamlessly at each bar, giving traders a continuous feed of disciplined, statistically filtered reversal cues.
Inputs
All parameters are fully user-configurable, allowing you to tailor sensitivity, lookbacks, and visuals to your trading style:
EMA length (fairLen): number of bars for the fair-value EMA; higher values smooth more but lag further behind price.
Z-Score lookback (zLen): window for calculating the mean and standard deviation of price deviations; longer lookbacks reduce noise but respond more slowly to new volatility.
Z-Score threshold (zThreshold): number of standard deviations defining the upper and lower bands; common default is 2.0 for roughly the outer 5 percent of moves.
Source (src): choice of price series (close, hl2, etc.) used for EMA, deviation, and RSI calculations.
RSI length (rsiLen): period for raw RSI calculation; shorter values react faster to momentum changes but can be choppier.
RSI EMA length (rsiEmaLen): period for smoothing raw RSI before taking its slope; higher values filter more noise.
Bar coloring mode (colorMode): select from None, Reversal Solid, Reversal Fade, Exceeding Bands, or Classic Heat to control how bars are shaded in relation to signals and band positions.
Show signals (showSignals): toggle on-chart “Up” and “Down” labels for reversal entries.
Show scoring table (enableTable): toggle the display of the five-metric breakdown table.
Table position (tablePos): choose which corner (Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Right) hosts the scoring table.
Conclusion
By merging a normalized z-score framework, momentum slope confirmation, disciplined signal memory, flexible visuals, and transparent scoring into one Pine Script overlay, Uptrick: Z-Trend Bands offers a powerful yet intuitive tool for intraday mean-reversion trading. Its adaptability to real-time volatility and multi-layered filter logic deliver clear, high-confidence reversal cues without the clutter or confusion of simpler indicators.

Correlation Drift📈 Correlation Drift
The Correlation Drift indicator is designed to detect shifts in market momentum by analyzing the relationship between correlation and price lag. It combines the principles of correlation analysis and lag factor measurement to provide a unique perspective on trend alignment and momentum shifts.
🔍 Core Concept:
The indicator calculates the Correlation vs PLF Ratio, which measures the alignment between an asset’s price movement and a chosen benchmark (e.g., BTCUSD). This ratio reflects how well the asset’s momentum matches the market trend while accounting for price lag.
📊 How It Works:
Correlation Calculation:
The script calculates the correlation between the asset and the selected benchmark over a specified period.
A higher correlation indicates that the asset’s price movements are in sync with the benchmark.
Price Lag Factor (PLF) Calculation:
The PLF measures the difference between long-term and short-term price momentum, dynamically scaled by recent volatility.
It highlights potential overextensions or lags in the asset’s price movements.
Combining Correlation and PLF:
The Correlation vs PLF Ratio combines these metrics to detect momentum shifts relative to the trend.
The result is a dynamic, smoothed histogram that visualizes whether the asset is leading or lagging behind the trend.
💡 How to Interpret:
Positive Values (Green/Aqua Bars):
Indicates bullish alignment with the trend.
Aqua: Rising bullish momentum, suggesting continuation.
Teal: Decreasing bullish momentum, signaling caution.
Negative Values (Purple/Fuchsia Bars):
Indicates bearish divergence from the trend.
Fuchsia: Falling bearish momentum, indicating increasing pressure.
Purple: Rising bearish momentum, suggesting potential reversal.
Clipping for Readability:
Values are clipped between -3 and +3 to prevent outliers from compressing the histogram.
This ensures clear visualization of typical momentum shifts while still marking extreme cases.
🚀 Best Practices:
Use Correlation Drift as a confirmation tool in conjunction with trend indicators (e.g., moving averages) to identify momentum alignment or divergence.
Look for transitions from positive to negative (or vice versa) as signals of potential trend shifts.
Combine with volume analysis to strengthen confidence in breakout or breakdown signals.
⚠️ Key Features:
Customizable Settings: Adjust the correlation length, PLF length, and smoothing factor to fine-tune the indicator for different market conditions.
Visual Gradient: The histogram changes color based on the strength and direction of the ratio, making it easy to identify shifts at a glance.
Zero Line Reference: Clearly distinguishes between bullish and bearish momentum zones.
🔧 Recommended Settings:
Correlation Length: 14 (for short to medium-term analysis)
PLF Length: 50 (to smooth out noise while capturing trend shifts)
Smoothing Factor: 3 (for enhanced clarity without excessive lag)
Benchmark Symbol: BTCUSD (or another relevant market indicator)
By providing a quantitative measure of trend alignment while accounting for price lag, the Correlation Drift indicator helps traders make more informed decisions during periods of momentum change. Whether you are trading crypto, forex, or equities, this tool can be a powerful addition to your momentum-based trading strategies.

Momentum Charge Theory (MCT)-(TechnoBlooms)The Momentum Charge Theory (MCT) Indicator is an advanced physics and mathematics-inspired trend detection system designed to identify market energy shifts with precision. Unlike traditional indicators that rely on static formulas, MCT integrates entropy, volatility, kinetic energy, and wavelet transforms to map price dynamics in real time.
Built on Scientific Principles – This indicator applies quantum-inspired charge-discharge mechanics to spot early trend formations and reversals. Think of price action like an energy system: it charges (builds momentum) before an explosive move and discharges when that energy dissipates.
Core Concepts Behind MCT
1️⃣ Directional Market Entropy – Measuring Trend Strength
Entropy quantifies market randomness – is the trend structured or chaotic?
✅ A high-entropy market is uncertain (choppy price action), while a low-entropy market signals a strong directional trend.
✅ MCT normalizes entropy, allowing traders to differentiate trend acceleration from market noise.
2️⃣ Information Flow Volatility – Identifying Breakout Zones
Inspired by Econophysics, this component measures volatility based on information flow rather than simple price movements.
✅ Helps spot high-volatility breakout conditions before they occur.
✅ Filters out false breakouts caused by random market noise.
3️⃣ Kinetic Energy Momentum (KEM) – The Physics of Price Acceleration
Just like in physics, momentum is a function of mass and velocity – in trading, this translates to volume and price change.
✅ Uses kinetic energy equations to identify price acceleration zones.
✅ Helps detect momentum shifts before price visibly reacts.
4️⃣ Hilbert Transform Approximation – Slope & Trend Direction Analysis
Applies Hilbert Transforms to estimate trend angle shifts.
✅ Detects momentum decay and early reversal signals.
✅ Captures the true trend slope rather than relying on lagging moving averages.
5️⃣ Wavelet Transform – Advanced Noise Filtering & Trend Confirmation
Market movements contain multiple frequencies – wavelet transforms isolate dominant trends while removing short-term price noise.
✅ Improves trend clarity by reducing false signals.
✅ Acts as a final confirmation filter before generating Charge & Discharge signals.
Charge & Discharge – The Energy Behind Market Moves
🔹 Charge (Uptrend Activation)
A blue triangle appears below the candle when market conditions align for a strong bullish move.
📈 Indicates momentum buildup, low entropy, and trend strength confirmation.
🔸 Discharge (Downtrend Activation)
A purple triangle appears above the candle when price momentum weakens and market entropy increases.
📉 Suggests a potential trend exhaustion or reversal.
Best Use Cases for Traders
✅ Momentum Traders – Catch trend initiations before they gain full traction.
✅ Breakout Traders – Identify high-information flow zones with volatility-driven signals.
✅ Trend Followers – Avoid false signals by relying on entropy-driven confirmations.
The MCT indicator can be combined with any of your usual indicators for trend confirmation.
Uptrick: Acceleration ShiftsIntroduction
Uptrick: Acceleration Shifts is designed to measure and visualize price momentum shifts by focusing on acceleration —the rate of change in velocity over time. It uses various moving average techniques as a trend filter, providing traders with a clearer perspective on market direction and potential trade entries or exits.
Purpose
The main goal of this indicator is to spot strong momentum changes (accelerations) and confirm them with a chosen trend filter. It attempts to distinguish genuine market moves from noise, helping traders make more informed decisions. The script can also trigger multiple entries (smart pyramiding) within the same trend, if desired.
Overview
By measuring how quickly price velocity changes (acceleration) and comparing it against a smoothed average of itself, this script generates buy or sell signals once the acceleration surpasses a given threshold. A trend filter is added for further validation. Users can choose from multiple smoothing methods and color schemes, and they can optionally enable a small table that displays real-time acceleration values.
Originality and Uniqueness
This script offers an acceleration-based approach, backed by several different moving average choices. The blend of acceleration thresholds, a trend filter, and an optional extra-entry (pyramiding) feature provides a flexible toolkit for various trading styles. The inclusion of multiple color themes and a slope-based coloring of the trend line adds clarity and user customization.
Inputs & Features
1. Acceleration Length (length)
This input determines the number of bars used when calculating velocity. Specifically, the script computes velocity by taking the difference in closing prices over length bars, and then calculates acceleration based on how that velocity changes over an additional length. The default is 14.
2. Trend Filter Length (smoothing)
This sets the lookback period for the chosen trend filter method. The default of 50 results in a moderately smooth trend line. A higher smoothing value will create a slower-moving trend filter.
3. Acceleration Threshold (threshold)
This multiplier determines when acceleration is considered strong enough to trigger a main buy or sell signal. A default value of 2.5 means the current acceleration must exceed 2.5 times the average acceleration before signaling.
4. Smart Pyramiding Strength (pyramidingThreshold)
This lower threshold is used for additional (pyramiding) entries once the main trend has already been identified. For instance, if set to 0.5, the script looks for acceleration crossing ±0.5 times its average acceleration to add extra positions.
5. Max Pyramiding Entries (maxPyramidingEntries)
This sets a limit on how many extra positions can be opened (beyond the first main signal) in a single directional trend. The default of 3 ensures traders do not become overexposed.
6. Show Acceleration Table (showTable)
When enabled, a small table displaying the current acceleration and its average is added to the top-right corner of the chart. This table helps monitor real-time momentum changes.
7. Smart Pyramiding (enablePyramiding)
This toggle decides whether additional entries (buy or sell) will be generated once a main signal is active. If enabled, these extra signals act as filtered entries, only firing when acceleration re-crosses a smaller threshold (pyramidingThreshold). These signals have a '+' next to their signal on the label.
8. Select Color Scheme (selectedColorScheme)
Allows choosing between various pre-coded color themes, such as Default, Emerald, Sapphire, Golden Blaze, Mystic, Monochrome, Pastel, Vibrant, Earth, or Neon. Each theme applies a distinct pair of colors for bullish and bearish conditions.
9. Trend Filter (TrendFilter)
Lets the user pick one of several moving average approaches to determine the prevailing trend. The options include:
Short Term (TEMA)
EWMA
Medium Term (HMA)
Classic (SMA)
Quick Reaction (DEMA)
Each method behaves differently, balancing reactivity and smoothness.
10. Slope Lookback (slopeOffset)
Used to measure the slope of the trend filter over a set number of bars (default is 10). This slope then influences the coloring of the trend filter line, indicating bullish or bearish tilt.
Note: The script refers to this as the "Massive Slope Index," but it effectively serves as a Trend Slope Calculation, measuring how the chosen trend filter changes over a specified period.
11. Alerts for Buy/Sell and Pyramiding Signals
The script includes built-in alert conditions that can be enabled or configured. These alerts trigger whenever the script detects a main Buy or Sell signal, as well as extra (pyramiding) signals if Smart Pyramiding is active. This feature allows traders to receive immediate notifications or automate a trading response.
Calculation Methodology
1. Velocity and Acceleration
Velocity is derived by subtracting the closing price from its value length bars ago. Acceleration is the difference in velocity over an additional length period. This highlights how quickly momentum is shifting.
2. Average Acceleration
The script smooths raw acceleration with a simple moving average (SMA) using the smoothing input. Comparing current acceleration against this average provides a threshold-based signal mechanism.
3. Trend Filter
Users can pick one of five moving average types to form a trend baseline. These range from quick-reacting methods (DEMA, TEMA) to smoother options (SMA, HMA, EWMA). The script checks whether the price is above or below this filter to confirm trend direction.
4. Buy/Sell Logic
A buy occurs when acceleration surpasses avgAcceleration * threshold and price closes above the trend filter. A sell occurs under the opposite conditions. An additional overbought/oversold check (based on a longer SMA) refines these signals further.
When price is considered oversold (i.e., close is below a longer-term SMA), a bullish acceleration signal has a higher likelihood of success because it indicates that the market is attempting to reverse from a lower price region. Conversely, when price is considered overbought (close is above this longer-term SMA), a bearish acceleration signal is more likely to be valid. This helps reduce false signals by waiting until the market is extended enough that a reversal or continuation has a stronger chance of following through.
5. Smart Pyramiding
Once a main buy or sell signal is triggered, additional (filtered) entries can be taken if acceleration crosses a smaller multiplier (pyramidingThreshold). This helps traders scale into strong moves. The script enforces a cap (maxPyramidingEntries) to limit risk.
6. Visual Elements
Candles can be recolored based on the active signal. Labels appear on the chart whenever a main or pyramiding entry signal is triggered. An optional table can show real-time acceleration values.
Color Schemes
The script includes a variety of predefined color themes. For bullish conditions, it might use turquoise or green, and for bearish conditions, magenta or red—depending on which color scheme the user selects. Each scheme aims to provide clear visual differentiation between bullish and bearish market states.
Why Each Indicator Was Part of This Component
Acceleration is employed to detect swift changes in momentum, capturing shifts that may not yet appear in more traditional measures. To further adapt to different trading styles and market conditions, several moving average methods are incorporated:
• TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average) is chosen for its ability to reduce lag more effectively than a standard EMA while still reacting swiftly to price changes. Its construction layers exponential smoothing in a way that can highlight sudden momentum shifts without sacrificing too much smoothness.
• DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average) provides a faster response than a single EMA by using two layers of exponential smoothing. It is slightly less smoothed than TEMA but can alert traders to momentum changes earlier, though with a higher risk of noise in choppier markets.
• HMA (Hull Moving Average) is known for its balance of smoothness and reduced lag. Its weighted calculations help track trend direction clearly, making it useful for traders who want a smoother line that still reacts fairly quickly.
• SMA (Simple Moving Average) is the classic baseline for smoothing price data. It offers a clear, stable perspective on long-term trends, though it reacts more slowly than other methods. Its simplicity can be beneficial in lower-volatility or more stable market environments.
• EWMA (Exponentially Weighted Moving Average) provides a middle ground by emphasizing recent price data while still retaining some degree of smoothing. It typically responds faster than an SMA but is less aggressive than DEMA or TEMA.
Alongside these moving average techniques, the script employs a slope calculation (referred to as the “Massive Slope Index”) to visually indicate whether the chosen filter is sloping upward or downward. This adds an extra layer of clarity to directional analysis. The indicator also uses overbought/oversold checks, based on a longer-term SMA, to help filter out signals in overstretched markets—reducing the likelihood of false entries in conditions where the price is already extensively extended.
Additional Features
Alerts can be set up for both main signals and additional pyramiding signals, which is helpful for automated or semi-automated trading. The optional acceleration table offers quick reference values, making momentum monitoring more intuitive. Including explicit alert conditions for Buy/Sell and Pyramiding ensures traders can respond promptly to market movements or integrate these triggers into automated strategies.
Summary
This script serves as a comprehensive momentum-based trading framework, leveraging acceleration metrics and multiple moving average filters to identify potential shifts in market direction. By combining overbought/oversold checks with threshold-based triggers, it aims to reduce the noise that commonly plagues purely reactive indicators. The flexibility of Smart Pyramiding, customizable color schemes, and built-in alerts allows users to tailor their experience and respond swiftly to valid signals, potentially enhancing trading decisions across various market conditions.

All trading involves significant risk, and users should apply their own judgment, risk management, and broader analysis before making investment decisions.
Uptrick: FRAMA Matrix RSIUptrick: FRAMA Matrix RSI
Introduction
The Uptrick: FRAMA Matrix RSI is a momentum-based indicator that integrates the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with the Fractal Adaptive Moving Average (FRAMA). By applying FRAMA's adaptive smoothing to RSI—and further refining it with a Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA)—this script creates a refined and reliable momentum oscillator. The indicator now includes enhanced divergence detection, potential reversal signals, customizable buy/sell signal options, an internal stats table, and a fully customizable bar coloring system for an enhanced visual trading experience.
Why Combine RSI with FRAMA
Traditional RSI is a well-known momentum indicator but has several limitations. It is highly sensitive to price fluctuations, often generating false signals in choppy or volatile markets. FRAMA, in contrast, adapts dynamically to price changes by adjusting its smoothing factor based on market conditions.
By integrating FRAMA into RSI calculations, this indicator reduces noise while preserving RSI's ability to track momentum, adapts to volatility by reducing lag in trending markets and smoothing out choppiness in ranging conditions, enhances trend-following capability for more reliable momentum shifts, and refines overbought and oversold signals by adjusting to the current market structure.
With the new enhancements, such as a manual alpha input, noise filtering, divergence detection, and multiple buy/sell signal options, the indicator offers even greater flexibility and precision for traders. This combination improves the standard RSI by making it more adaptive and responsive to market changes.
Originality
This indicator is unique because it applies FRAMA's adaptive smoothing technique to RSI, creating a dynamic momentum oscillator that adjusts to different market conditions. Many traditional RSI-based indicators either use fixed smoothing methods like exponential moving averages or employ basic RSI calculations without adjusting for volatility.
This script stands out by integrating several elements, including the fractal dimension-based smoothing of FRAMA to reduce noise while retaining responsiveness, the use of Zero-Lag Moving Average smoothing to enhance trend sensitivity and reduce lag, divergence detection to highlight mismatches between price action and RSI momentum, a noise filter and manual alpha option to prevent minor fluctuations from generating false signals, customizable buy/sell signal options that let traders choose between ZLMA-based or FRAMA RSI-based signals, an internal stats table displaying real-time FRAMA calculations such as fractal dimension and the adaptive alpha factor, and a fully customizable bar coloring system to visually distinguish bullish, bearish, and neutral conditions.
Features
Adaptive FRAMA RSI
The indicator applies FRAMA to RSI values, making the momentum oscillator adaptive to volatility while filtering out noise. Unlike a traditional RSI that reacts equally to all price movements, FRAMA RSI adjusts its smoothing factor based on market structure, making it more effective for identifying true momentum shifts.
Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA)
A smoothing technique that minimizes lag while preserving the responsiveness of price movements. It is applied to the FRAMA RSI to further refine signals and ensure smoother trend detection.
Bullish and Bearish Threshold Crossovers
This system compares FRAMA RSI to a user-defined threshold (default is 50). When FRAMA RSI moves above the threshold, it indicates bullish momentum, while movement below signals bearish conditions. The enhanced noise filter ensures that only significant moves trigger signals.
Noise Filter and Manual Alpha
A new noise filter input prevents tiny fluctuations from triggering false signals. In addition, a manual alpha option allows traders to override the automatically computed smoothing factor with a custom value, providing extra control over the indicator’s sensitivity.
Divergence Detection
The indicator identifies divergence patterns by comparing FRAMA RSI pivots to price action. Bullish divergence occurs when price makes a lower low while FRAMA RSI makes a higher low, and bearish divergence occurs when price makes a higher high while FRAMA RSI makes a lower high. These signals can help traders anticipate potential reversals.
Reversal Signals
Labels appear on the chart when FRAMA RSI confirms classic RSI overbought (70) or oversold (30) conditions, providing visual cues for potential trend reversals.
Buy and Sell Signal Options
Traders can now choose between two signal-generation methods. ZLMA-based signals trigger when the ZLMA of FRAMA RSI crosses key overbought (70) or oversold (30) levels, while FRAMA RSI-based signals trigger when FRAMA RSI itself crosses these levels. This added flexibility allows users to tailor the indicator to their preferred trading style.
ZLMA:
FRAMA:
Customizable Alerts
Alerts notify traders when FRAMA RSI crosses key levels, divergence signals occur, reversal conditions are met, or buy/sell signals trigger. This ensures that important trading events are not missed.
Fully Customizable Bar Coloring System
Users can color bars based on different conditions, enhancing visual clarity. Bar coloring modes include: FRAMA RSI threshold (bars change color based on whether FRAMA RSI is above or below the threshold), ZLMA crossover (bars change when ZLMA crosses overbought or oversold levels), buy/sell signals (bars change when official signals trigger), divergence (bars highlight when bullish or bearish divergence is detected), and reversals (bars indicate when RSI reaches overbought or oversold conditions confirmed by FRAMA RSI). The system also remembers the last applied bar color, ensuring a smooth visual transition.
Input Parameters and Features
Core Inputs
RSI Length (default: 14) defines the period for RSI calculations.
FRAMA Lookback (default: 16) determines the length for the FRAMA smoothing function.
RSI Bull Threshold (default: 50) sets the level above which the market is considered bullish and below which it is bearish.
Noise Filter (default: 1.0) ensures that small fluctuations do not trigger false bullish or bearish signals.
Additional Features
Show Bull and Bear Alerts (default: true) enables notifications when FRAMA RSI crosses the threshold.
Enable Divergence Detection (default: false) highlights bullish and bearish divergences based on price and FRAMA RSI pivots.
Show Potential Reversal Signals (default: false) identifies overbought (70) and oversold (30) levels as possible trend reversal points.
Buy and Sell Signal Option (default: ZLMA) allows traders to choose between ZLMA-based signals or FRAMA RSI-based signals for trade entry.
ZLMA Enhancements
ZLMA Length (default: 14) determines the period for the Zero-Lag Moving Average applied to FRAMA RSI.
Visualization Options
Show Internal Stats Table (default: false) displays real-time FRAMA calculations, including fractal dimension and the adaptive alpha smoothing factor.
Show Threshold FRAMA Signals (default: false) plots buy and sell labels when FRAMA RSI crosses the threshold level.
How It Works
FRAMA Calculation
FRAMA dynamically adjusts smoothing based on the price fractal dimension. The alpha smoothing factor is derived from the fractal dimension or can be set manually to maintain responsiveness.
RSI with FRAMA Smoothing
RSI is calculated using the user-defined lookback period. FRAMA is then applied to the RSI to make it more adaptive to volatility. Optionally, ZLMA is applied to further refine the signals and reduce lag.
Bullish and Bearish Threshold Crosses
A bullish condition occurs when FRAMA RSI crosses above the threshold, while a bearish condition occurs when it falls below. The noise filter ensures that only significant trend shifts generate signals.
Buy and Sell Signal Options
Traders can choose between ZLMA crossovers or FRAMA RSI crossovers as the basis for buy and sell signals, offering flexibility in trade entry timing.
Divergence Detection
The indicator identifies divergences where price action and FRAMA RSI momentum do not align, potentially signaling upcoming reversals.
Reversal Signal Labels
When classic RSI overbought or oversold levels are confirmed by FRAMA RSI conditions, reversal labels are added on the chart to highlight potential exhaustion points.
Bar Coloring System
Bars are dynamically colored based on various conditions such as RSI thresholds, ZLMA crossovers, buy/sell signals, divergence, and reversals, allowing traders to quickly interpret market sentiment.
Alerts and Internal Stats
Customizable alerts notify traders of key events, and an optional internal stats table displays real-time calculations (fractal dimension, alpha value, and RSI values) to help users understand the underlying dynamics of the indicator.
Summary
The Uptrick: FRAMA Matrix RSI offers an enhanced approach to momentum analysis by combining RSI with adaptive FRAMA smoothing and additional layers of signal refinement. The indicator now includes adaptive RSI smoothing to reduce noise and improve responsiveness, Zero-Lag Moving Average filtering to minimize lag, divergence and reversal detection to identify potential turning points, customizable buy/sell signal options that let traders choose between different signal methodologies, a fully customizable bar coloring system to visually distinguish market conditions, and an internal stats table for real-time insight into FRAMA calculation parameters.
Whether used for trend confirmation, divergence detection, or momentum-based strategies, this indicator provides a powerful and adaptive approach to trading.

Momentum Ghost Machine [ChartPrime]Momentum Ghost Machine (ChartPrime) is designed to be the next generation in momentum/rate of change analysis. This indicator utilizes the properties of one of our favorite filters to create a more accurate and stable momentum oscillator by using a high quality filtered delayed signal to do the momentum comparison.
Traditional momentum/roc uses the raw price data to compare current price to previous price to generate a directional oscillator. This leaves the oscillator prone to false readings and noisy outputs that leave traders unsure of the real likelihood of a future movement. One way to mitigate this issue would be to use some sort of moving average. Unfortunately, this can only go so far because simple moving average algorithms result in a poor reconstruction of the actual shape of the underlying signal.
The windowed sinc low pass filter is a linear phase filter, meaning that it doesn't change the shape or size of the original signal when applied. This results in a faithful reconstruction of the original signal, but without the "high frequency noise". Just like any filter, the process of applying it requires that we have "future" samples resulting in a time delay for real time applications. Fortunately this is a great thing in the context of a momentum oscillator because we need some representation of past price data to compare the current price data to. By using an ideal low pass filter to generate this delayed signal we can super charge the momentum oscillator and fix the majority of issues its predecessors had.
This indicator has a few extra features that other momentum/roc indicators dont have. One major yet simple improvement is the inclusion of a moving average to help gauge the rate of change of this indicator. Since we included a moving average, we thought it would only be appropriate to add a histogram to help visualize the relationship between the signal and its average. To go further with this we have also included linear extrapolation to further help you predict the momentum and direction of this oscillator. Included with this extrapolation we have also added the histogram in the extrapolation to further enhance its visual interpretation. Finally, the inclusion of a candle coloring feature really drives how the utility of the Momentum Machine .
There are three distinct options when using the candle coloring feature: Direct, MA, and Both. With direct the candles will be colored based on the indicators direction and polarity. When it is above zero and moving up, it displays a green color. When it is above zero and moving down it will display a light green color. Conversely, when the indicator is below zero and moving down it displays a red color, and when it it moving up and below zero it will display a light red color. MA coloring will color the candles just like a MACD. If the signal is above its MA and moving up it will display a green color, and when it is above its MA and moving down it will display a light green color.
When the signal is below its MA and moving down it will display a red color, and when its below its ma and moving up it will display a light red color. Both combines the two into a single color scheme providing you with the best of both worlds. If the indicator is above zero it will display the MA colors with a slight twist. When the indicator is moving down and is below its MA it will display a lighter color than before, and when it is below zero and is above its MA it will display a darker color color.
Length of 50 with a smoothing of 100
Length of 50 with a smoothing of 25
By default, the indicator is set to a momentum length of 50, with a post smoothing of 2. We have chosen the longer period for the momentum length to highlight the performance of this indicator compared to its ancestors. A major point to consider with this indicator is that you can only achieve so much smoothing for a chosen delay. This is because more data is required to produce a smoother signal at a specified length. Once you have selected your desired momentum length you can then select your desired momentum smoothing . This is made possible by the use of the windowed sinc low pass algorithm because it includes a frequency cutoff argument. This means that you can have as little or as much smoothing as you please without impacting the period of the indicator. In the provided examples above this paragraph is a visual representation of what is going on under the hood of this indicator. The blue line is the filtered signal being compared to the current closing price. As you can see, the filtered signal is very smooth and accurately represents the underlying price action without noise.
We hope that users can find the same utility as we did in this indicator and that it levels up your analysis utilizing the momentum oscillator or rate of change.

🔍 What This Indicator Does
Profit Bottoms is a custom momentum oscillator designed to reveal price strength inflections through correlation logic. It identifies potential market exhaustion zones, highlights overbought/oversold conditions, and visually marks swing tops and bottoms — helping traders pinpoint profit-taking opportunities or early reversals across any asset or timeframe.
It features a flexible histogram view, color-coded background trends, and precision labels for clearer insight into market sentiment momentum shifts.
⸻
⚙️ How It Works
At the core of this indicator is a correlation function:
• It measures how strongly the price (close) correlates with bar index progression over a lookback window — essentially evaluating how directional recent price action has been.
• This results in a “strength index” ranging between +1 (strong uptrend) and -1 (strong downtrend).
• It tracks the slope of this index to infer trend direction and visually represent shifts.
From there, the indicator layers on:
• Dynamic overbought/oversold zones (±0.9)
• Swing high/low detection based on local peaks and troughs
• Trend background shading based on momentum slope
• Optional histogram and fill display styles

Volatility Envelopes: Bollinger Bands adapt to dynamic price swings, showing overbought/oversold extremes and periods of contraction or expansion.
Behavioral Sentiment: A Greed vs. Fear heatmap combines RSI and MACD Histogram readings to visualize when markets are dominated by buying enthusiasm or selling pressure.
The combination is designed to help traders interpret market context more effectively than using any single component alone.
🛠️ How to Use the Indicator
Trajectory EMA:
Use the blue EMA line to assess overall trend direction.
Price closing above the EMA may indicate bullish momentum; closing below may indicate bearish bias.
Buy/Sell Signals:
Green circles appear when price crosses above the EMA (potential long entry).
Red circles appear when price crosses below the EMA (potential exit or short entry).
Bollinger Bands:
Monitor upper/lower bands for overbought and oversold price extremes.
Narrowing bands may signal upcoming volatility expansion.
Greed vs. Fear Heatmap:
Green histogram bars indicate bullish sentiment when RSI exceeds 60 and MACD Histogram is positive.
Red histogram bars indicate bearish sentiment when RSI is below 40 and MACD Histogram is negative.
Gray bars indicate neutral or mixed conditions.
Background Color Zones:
The chart background shifts to green when EMA slope is positive and red when negative, providing quick directional cues.
All inputs are adjustable in settings, including EMA length, Bollinger Band parameters, and oscillator configurations.
📊 Interpretation
Bullish Conditions:
Price above the Trajectory EMA, background green, and Greed heatmap active.
May signal trend continuation and increased buying pressure.
Bearish Conditions:
Price below the Trajectory EMA, background red, and Fear heatmap active.
May signal momentum breakdown or potential continuation to the downside.
Volatility Clues:
Wide Bollinger Bands = trending, volatile market.
Narrow Bollinger Bands = low volatility and possible breakout setup.
Signal Confirmation:
Consider combining signals (e.g., EMA crossover + Greed/Fear heatmap + Bollinger Band touch) for higher-confidence entries.

Fibo Normalized RSI & RSI RibbonPlots both standard and Z-score normalized RSI ribbons using Fibonacci-based periods. Supports adjustable normalization, optional 0–100 scaling, and multi-line visualizations for momentum and deviation analysis.
This tool is designed for traders who want to go beyond standard RSI by adding:
Statistical normalization (Z-score)
Multi-period analysis (Fibonacci structure)
Advanced divergence and exhaustion detection
It gives you both classical momentum context and mathematically rigorous deviation insight, making it ideal for:
Swing traders
Quant-inclined discretionary traders
Multi-timeframe analysts
Trend Confirmation
When both RSI and normalized RSI across short and long periods are stacked in the same direction (e.g., above 50 or with high Z-scores), the trend is likely strong.
Disagreement between the two ribbons (e.g., RSI high but normalized RSI flat) may indicate late-stage trend or false strength.
Mean Reversion Trades
Look for normalized RSI values > +2 or < -2 (i.e., ~2 standard deviations).
Cross-check with standard RSI to see if the move aligns with a traditional overbought/oversold level.
Great for fade/reversal setups when Z-score RSI is extreme but classic RSI is just beginning to turn.
Divergence Detection
Compare the slope of RSI vs. normalized RSI over same period:
If RSI is rising but normalized RSI is falling → momentum is fading despite apparent strength.
Excellent for early warnings before reversals.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Use short-period ribbons (e.g., 3–13) for tactical entries/exits.
Use long-period ribbons (e.g., 55–233) for macro trend bias.
Alignment across both = high-confidence zone.
Consecutive Green Candles + 20% Move ScreenerConsecutive Green Candles Momentum Tracker
This indicator identifies powerful bullish momentum streaks in stocks, highlighting opportunities where consistent buying pressure has driven significant price increases.
The script tracks sequences of consecutive green (bullish) candles that collectively move a stock's price by more than 20%. It marks both the beginning of such streaks with a green label and their conclusion with a red arrow when price momentum finally reverses.
Perfect for traders looking to:
- Identify stocks experiencing strong directional momentum
- Spot potential reversal points after extended rallies
- Screen for securities with recent bullish strength
- Understand the magnitude of recent price runs
Simply adjust the minimum number of candles and percentage threshold to match your preferred momentum criteria.
RSI Strength & Consolidation Zones (Zeiierman)█ Overview
RSI Strength & Consolidation Zones (Zeiierman) is a hybrid momentum and volatility visualization tool that blends enhanced RSI interpretation with ADX-driven consolidation detection. This indicator doesn't just show where RSI is trending — it interprets how strong that trend is, when that strength changes, and where the market may be consolidating in anticipation of breakout movement.
Using a combination of Kalman-filtered RSI, custom-built DMI/ADX, and low-volatility zone recognition, it gives traders a dynamic RSI with strength-based coloring, while also highlighting consolidation zones to spot breakout opportunities.
█ Its uniqueness
Traditional RSI indicators lack context. They may show you when the market is overbought or oversold, but they won’t tell you how strong that condition is, or whether it’s likely to result in continuation or consolidation.
This tool aims to solve that by introducing adaptive strength metrics and structural compression zones, allowing traders to anticipate when the market is likely preparing for a move.
█ How It Works
⚪ Enhanced RSI
Combines traditional RSI and a custom RSI implementation
Smooths both through a Kalman filter for trend direction
Final RSI line reflects smoothed consensus between manual and built-in RSI
Adds an RSI + Strength overlay to show when the directional conviction is increasing
⚪ ADX-Driven Strength Layer
Directional Movement Index (DMI) is calculated both manually and with built-in smoothing
The average ADX value is used to calculate a strength modifier
When ADX exceeds 20, RSI is dynamically enhanced or dampened to reflect directional force
Resulting visual: RSI appears stronger or weaker based on confirmed trend conditions
⚪ Consolidation Zone Detection
When ADX falls below 20, the indicator enters a consolidation zone state
Boxes are drawn dynamically to contain the price within these low-volatility structures
Once the price breaks out of the zone, the indicator plots a breakout signal (▲ or ▼)
⚪ Breakouts
Breakout markers are placed at the first close outside the consolidation box
These signals serve as early indicators for potential trend continuation or reversal
█ How to Use
⚪ Confirm Momentum Strength
Use the RSI + Strength line to determine whether current momentum is backed by trend conviction. If strength expands alongside rising RSI, the move has confirmation.
⚪ Consolidations Zones
When RSI is around the midline, and a consolidation box appears, expect lower volatility and a range-bound market, followed by a breakout.
⚪ Use Breakout Signals for Entry
Look for ▲ or ▼ markers as early triggers. These often coincide with volume expansions or structural breaks.
█ Settings Explained
RSI Length – Number of bars used for RSI. Shorter = more sensitive.
DMI Length – Used in both custom and built-in ADX/DI calculations.
ADX Smoothing – Smooths the trend strength signal. Higher values = smoother strength detection.
Trend Confirmation (Filter Strength) – Adjusts the responsiveness of the Kalman filter.
