Feel Free to change the indicator values to suit your style / system
The divergence script is thanks to @RicardoSantos, I've just adjusted it to suite my indicator
Remember that divergences work best when traded with the trend or very late in a trend when going against the trend
Common value for %K is 5, I have chosen 3 as it gives faster entries when using multiple time frames
If you are not using a momentum indicator as a trailing stop and using only cycle indicator
then I would recommended %K be 4 for exits

B3 Buyer-Seller BreakoutsB3 Buyer-Seller Breakouts = If a bar is showing that it is moving in a direction with highs lows and close, all of which are >respectively< moving against the open from the bar before, then it prints indicating buyers or sellers bringing momentum. The arrows and cloud carry into the next bar to give lots of awareness of the micro-term momentum. The cloud represents the better price range from which to add to a position.
This study repaints within the bar, most of my indicators do not, but this one is about timing to get an edge on adding to your already in play position, becoming part of the needed momentum to hit profit targets faster. Also, this theory helps you add to winners, and if you never add to losers, you now have statistical odds in your favor. I got the idea for the study reading about turtle trader method and how that statistical edge is really why it works, always adding on every breakout. Keep in mind that I never buy or sell breakouts to initiate trades, only to scale in.

CEF (Chaos Theory Regime Oscillator)Chaos Theory Regime Oscillator
This script is open to the community.
What is it?
The CEF (Chaos Entropy Fusion) Oscillator is a next-generation "Regime Analysis" tool designed to replace traditional, static momentum indicators like RSI or MACD. Unlike standard oscillators that only look at price changes, CEF analyzes the "character" of the market using concepts from Chaos Theory and Information Theory.
It combines advanced mathematical engines (Hurst Exponent, Entropy, VHF) to determine whether a price movement is a real trend or just random noise. It uses a novel "Adaptive Normalization" technique to solve scaling problems common in advanced indicators, ensuring the oscillator remains sensitive yet stable across all assets (Crypto, Forex, Stocks).
What It Promises:
Intelligent Filtering: Filters out false signals in sideways (volatile) markets using the Hurst Base to measure trend continuity.
Dynamic Adaptation: Automatically adapts to volatility. Thanks to trend memory, it doesn't get stuck at the top during uptrends or at the bottom during downtrends.
No Repainting: All signals are confirmed at the close of the bar. They don't repaint or disappear.
What It Doesn't Promise:
Magic Wand: It's a powerful analytical tool, not a crystal ball. It determines the regime, but risk management is up to the investor.
Late-Free Holy Grail: It deliberately uses advanced correction algorithms (WMA/SMA) to provide stability and filter out noise. Speed is sacrificed for accuracy.
Which Concepts Are Used for Which Purpose?
CEF is built on proven mathematical concepts while creating a unique "Fusion" mechanism. These are not used in their standard forms, but are remixed to create a consensus engine:
Hurst Exponent: Used to measure the "memory" of the time series. Tells the oscillator whether there is a probability of the trend continuing or reversing to the mean.
Vertical Horizontal Filter (VHF): Determines whether the market is in a trend phase or a congestion phase.
Shannon Entropy: Measures the "irregularity" or "unpredictability" of market data to adjust signal sensitivity.
Adaptive Normalization (Key Innovation): Instead of fixed limits, the oscillator dynamically scales itself based on recent historical performance, solving the "flat line" problem seen in other advanced scripts.
Original Methodology and Community Contribution
This algorithm is a custom synthesis of public domain mathematical theories. The author's unique contribution lies in the "Adaptive Normalization Logic" and the custom weighting of Chaos components to filter momentum.
Why Public Domain? Standard indicators (RSI, MACD) were developed for the markets of the 1970s. Modern markets require modern mathematics. This script is presented to the community to demonstrate how Regime Analysis can improve trading decisions compared to static tools.
What Problems Does It Solve?
Problem 1: The "Stagnant Market" Trap
CEF Solution: While the RSI gives false signals in a sideways market, CEF's Hurst/VHF filter suppresses the signal, essentially making the histogram "off" (or weak) during noise.
Problem 2: The "Overbought" Fallacy
CEF Solution: In a strong trend (Pump/Dump), traditional oscillators get stuck at 100 or 0. CEF uses "Trend Memory" to understand that an overbought price is not a reversal signal but a sign of trend strength, and keeps the signal green/red instead of reversing it prematurely. Problem 3: Visual Confusion
CEF Solution: Instead of multiple lines, it presents a single, color-coded histogram featuring only prominent "Smart Circles" at high-probability reversal points.
Automation Ready: Custom Alerts
CEF is designed for both manual trading and automation.
Smart Buy/Sell Circles: Visual signals that only appear when trend filters are aligned with momentum reversals.
Deviation Labels: Automatically detects and labels structural divergences between price and entropy.

Adaptive Trend Mapper-ATM (Arjo)Adaptive Trend Mapper (ATM) is a multi-factor trend, momentum, and compression-analysis tool designed to help traders visually map the strength and direction of market pressure.
Instead of simply combining existing indicators, ATM creates a new composite framework that blends momentum imbalance, directional strength, volatility contraction, and adaptive smoothing into a single, unified model.
Originality and usefulness
Adaptive Trend Mapper (ATM) does not replicate any one indicator.
It generates two custom indices— Bull Pressure Index and Bear Pressure Index —derived from a mathematical combination of RSI, inverse-RSI, and ADX. These indices behave differently from traditional oscillators:
They represent directional pressure on a 0–100 scale , not momentum.
They are designed to converge/diverge, forming a basis for the built-in Squeeze Detection Engine.
They can be optionally step-compressed , making the movement easier to read on fast or small charts.
The script also integrates a custom SuperSmoother trend model (not TradingView’s built-in function), which acts as an adaptive trend curve on the chart.
All calculations are combined intentionally—not as a mashup—to create a framework that allows traders to understand trend strength, compression phases, and micro-trend shifts in one place.
How the Indicator Works
1. Bull & Bear Pressure Indices:
These indices measure directional imbalance:
Bull Index = ADX strength weighted against inverse-RSI
Bear Index = ADX strength weighted against normal RSI
This produces two opposing pressure curves that rise or fall depending on whether buyers or sellers dominate.
You can optionally smooth these using:
SMA / EMA / WMA / RMA via the “Smoothing Settings” panel.
2. Squeeze & Compression Detection:
A squeeze is detected when:
ADX stays below a user-defined threshold
Bull–Bear Index difference shrinks
Average difference is falling (convergence)
This is a volatility-contraction model inspired by squeeze logic but applied to directional pressure, not Bollinger Bands/Keltner Channels .
3. Adaptive Trend Curve (SuperSmoother Engine)
The indicator applies a two-pole SuperSmoother filter to the price, then smooths it again using EMA.
The slope color flips between bullish and bearish and is displayed using:
A thin SuperSmoother curve
A thicker band for visual context
4. EMA-50 Trend Context:
An optional EMA-50 helps identify broad directional bias .
5. Step-Based Scaling
You can quantize the Bull/Bear indices using custom step intervals.
This makes the indicator easier to read on noisy intraday charts.
How to Use the Indicator
1. Trend Analysis
A rising Bull Index shows strengthening upward pressure
A rising Bear Index shows strengthening downward pressure
Wide divergence between the indices signals a strong trend
2. Compression / Squeeze Analysis
Yellow background = volatility compression + pressure convergence
Breakouts from this zone often precede directional expansion
3. Trendline Reading
SuperSmoother line color flip = micro trend shift
EMA-50 slope gives macro-trend direction
Perfect for combining trend and momentum maps on the same chart
4. Visual Interpretation
Cyan/teal → strong bullish pressure
Purple/red/orange → various levels of bearish control
Neutral/teal background → weak ADX
Yellow background → squeeze zone

TradingView built-in RSI, ADX/DMI, and smoothing functions
A SuperSmoother implementation based on known DSP filter coefficients
All remaining logic, signal methods, composite indices, and compression model are original developments by ARJO .

RSI Momentum Divergence Zones [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
RSI Momentum Divergence Zones is a hybrid oscillator and chart overlay tool that detects RSI-based momentum divergences and projects them as key zones on the chart. By combining RSI divergence logic with horizontal level plotting, this indicator reveals high-probability support and resistance areas where price has historically reacted to hidden or classic divergences.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Momentum-Based RSI Source:
Instead of the classic RSI input, this tool uses the momentum of price as the RSI source:
rsiSrc = ta.mom(close, 10)
This emphasizes acceleration and deceleration of price moves, sharpening divergence signals and making them more responsive to early shifts in momentum.
Automatic Divergence Detection (Optional):
When enabled, the indicator continuously scans for:
— Bullish Divergence : Price makes a Lower Low while RSI forms a Higher Low
— Bearish Divergence : Price makes a Higher High while RSI forms a Lower High
It ensures divergence is valid by checking the spacing between pivots (min 5, max 50 bars).
Divergence Labels & Markers (RSI Pane + Chart):
When a valid divergence is detected:
— On RSI pane:
Labels appear at HL/LH points (“Bull” / “Bear”)
Colored lines show pivot structures
— On price chart:
Labels (“▲ Bull” / “Bear ▼”) mark price pivot that triggered the divergence
Lines highlight the exact price level at the divergence origin
Divergence Zones / Levels (Toggleable):
The indicator projects horizontal zones across the chart based on confirmed divergence points.
These levels dynamically extend as long as price respects them, and auto-expire once broken.
They act as S/R levels created by market imbalance caused by divergence reactions.
Dynamic Zone Extension Logic:
Once plotted, divergence levels will extend to the right:
— If price respects the level, the zone keeps growing
— If broken in the opposite direction, the level stops extending and turns dashed (visually showing break)
Zone Layering and Limit Control:
You can limit the number of simultaneous zones shown on the chart (e.g., 10 most recent).
Old zones automatically expire and are removed to keep the chart clean and focused.
Color Customization and Intensity:
Different colors for bullish and bearish zones let you easily distinguish trend direction.
Background fill, line width, and transparency are all adjustable.
Clean Zone Management with Arrays:
Behind the scenes, the script uses custom divLevel type arrays to manage plotted levels, ensuring they stay up-to-date, extend correctly, and delete once invalidated.
⯁ USAGE
Use bullish divergence zones as potential demand areas and bearish ones as supply zones.
Combine RSI pane labels with price-level zones to confirm strength of reversal.
Watch for price approaching a divergence level to anticipate reactions or breakouts.
Use divergence levels as trade triggers, stop-loss guides, or take-profit markers.
Limit signal count using the “Qty Divergence Zones” setting to reduce chart clutter.
Enable divergence detection only when you want to focus on key structural zones — ideal for swing or positional setups.
⯁ CONCLUSION
RSI Momentum Divergence Zones blends oscillator divergence logic with price action structure to uncover hidden strength or weakness in the market. With flexible zone plotting and clean visual signals, this tool empowers traders to identify where momentum turns into structure — turning hidden signals into tradable edges.
Bull Momentum GaugeBull Momentum Gauge
The Bull Momentum Gauge is a powerful momentum oscillator designed to identify the underlying strength and sustainability of major market trends. Instead of trying to predict tops and bottoms, this indicator helps traders and investors ride long-term bull markets by signaling when momentum is building and when it is starting to fade.
What it Does
At its core, this tool measures how statistically "stretched" or "compressed" an asset's price is relative to its long-term (1-year) trend. It does this by:
Calculating the price's deviation from its 365-day moving average.
Normalizing this deviation into a Z-score to measure its statistical significance.
Comparing the inverted Z-score to its own 200-day moving average to gauge the momentum of the trend itself.
The result is a single, smooth line that oscillates around a zero value.
How to Use It
The signals are simple and based on the indicator's relationship to the zero line:
Green Line (Gauge below 0): This indicates that the price has been compressed relative to its long-term trend and is now showing signs of building upward momentum. A cross into the green zone can be interpreted as a potential entry signal for a new bull run.
Red Line (Gauge above 0): This suggests that the price has become over-extended or "stretched" and the upward momentum is beginning to weaken. A cross into the red zone can be used as a potential exit signal, indicating it may be time to take profits and wait for the next cycle.
This indicator is designed to work across multiple timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly) and provides a clear, data-driven framework for navigating major market cycles.
Heikin Ashi + MACD Momentum FilterThe Heikin Ashi + MACD Momentum Filter is designed for short-term and swing traders, combining the trend-smoothing capabilities of manually calculated Heikin Ashi candles with the momentum confirmation of the MACD histogram to generate reliable buy and sell signals. This indicator aligns trend direction with momentum shifts to minimize false signals, making it ideal for trading trending markets on timeframes like 5-minute to 1-hour charts.
How It Works
The indicator uses two technical components to produce signals:
Heikin Ashi for Trend Detection:
Heikin Ashi candles are manually calculated to smooth price action, with the close as the average of OHLC values and the open as the average of the previous Heikin Ashi open and close. These values are further smoothed over a default 5-period moving average. A bullish trend is confirmed when the smoothed Heikin Ashi close is above its open (plotted in green), and a bearish trend when the close is below the open (plotted in red). This smoothing reduces noise, helping traders stay in the direction of the prevailing trend.
MACD Histogram for Momentum Confirmation:
The MACD, calculated with standard settings (fast=12, slow=26, signal=9), produces a histogram. A buy signal requires the histogram to cross above a threshold (default: 0.0), indicating bullish momentum, while a sell signal requires a cross below, indicating bearish momentum. This ensures trades are taken when momentum supports the trend.
Signal Generation
Signals are generated using the previous bar’s values to prevent repainting:
Buy Signal: The MACD histogram crosses above the threshold, and the Heikin Ashi confirms a bullish trend. Displayed as a green upward triangle below the bar.
Sell Signal: The MACD histogram crosses below the threshold, and the Heikin Ashi confirms a bearish trend. Displayed as a red downward triangle above the bar.
EMA-Based Squeeze Dynamics (Gap Momentum & EWMA Projection)EMA-Based Squeeze Dynamics (Gap Momentum & EWMA Projection)
🚨 Main Utility: Early Squeeze Warning
The primary function of this indicator is to warn traders early when the market is approaching a "squeeze"—a tightening condition that often precedes significant moves or regime shifts. By visually highlighting areas of increasing tension, it helps traders anticipate potential volatility and prepare accordingly. This is intended to be a statistically and psychologically grounded replacement of so-called "fib-time-zones," which are overly-deterministic and subjective.
📌 Overview
The EMA-Based Squeeze Dynamics indicator projects future regime shifts (such as golden and death crosses) using exponential moving averages (EMAs). It employs historical interval data and current market conditions to dynamically forecast when the critical EMAs (50-period and 200-period) will reconverge, marking likely trend-change points.
This indicator leverages two core ideas:
Behavioral finance theory: Traders often collectively anticipate popular EMA crossovers, creating a self-fulfilling prophecy (normative social influence), similar to findings from Solomon Asch’s conformity experiments.
Bayesian-like updates: It utilizes historical crossover intervals as a prior, dynamically updating expectations based on evolving market data, ensuring its signals remain objectively grounded in actual market behavior.
⚙️ Technical & Mathematical Explanation
1. EMA Calculations and Regime Definitions
The indicator uses three EMAs:
Fast (9-period): Represents short-term price movement.
Medial (50-period): Indicates medium-term trend direction.
Slow (200-period): Defines long-term market sentiment.
Regime States:
Bullish: 50 EMA is above the 200 EMA.
Bearish: 50 EMA is below the 200 EMA.
A shift between these states triggers visual markers (arrows and labels) directly on the chart.
2. Gap Dynamics and Historical Intervals
At each crossover:
The indicator records the gap (distance) between the 50 and 200 EMAs.
It tracks the historical intervals between past crossovers.
An Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) of these intervals is calculated, weighting recent intervals more heavily, dynamically updating expectations.
Important note:
After every regime shift, the projected crossover line resets its calculation. This reset is visually evident as the projection line appears to move further away after each regime change, temporarily "repelled" until the EMAs begin converging again. This ensures projections remain realistic, grounded in actual EMA convergence, and prevents overly optimistic forecasts immediately after a regime shift.
3. Gap Momentum & Adaptive Scaling
The indicator measures how quickly or slowly the gap between EMAs is changing ("gap momentum") and adjusts its forecast accordingly:
If the gap narrows rapidly, a crossover becomes more imminent.
If the gap widens, the next crossover is pushed further into the future.
The "gap factor" dynamically scales the projection based on recent gap momentum, bounded between reasonable limits (0.7–1.3).
4. Squeeze Ratio & Background Color (Visual Cues)
A "squeeze ratio" is computed when market conditions indicate tightening:
In a bullish regime, if the fast EMA is below the medial EMA (price pulling back towards long-term support), the squeeze ratio increases.
In a bearish regime, if the fast EMA rises above the medial EMA (price rallying into long-term resistance), the squeeze ratio increases.
What the Background Colors Mean:
Red Background: Indicates a bullish squeeze—price is compressing downward, hinting a bullish reversal or continuation breakout may occur soon.
Green Background: Indicates a bearish squeeze—price is compressing upward, suggesting a bearish reversal or continuation breakout could soon follow.
Opacity Explanation:
The transparency (opacity) of the background indicates the intensity of the squeeze:
High Opacity (solid color): Strong squeeze, high likelihood of imminent volatility or regime shift.
Low Opacity (faint color): Mild squeeze, signaling early stages of tightening.
Thus, more vivid colors serve as urgent visual warnings that a squeeze is rapidly intensifying.
5. Projected Next Crossover and Pseudo Crossover Mechanism
The indicator calculates an estimated future bar when a crossover (and thus, regime shift) is expected to occur. This calculation incorporates:
Historical EWMA interval.
Current squeeze intensity.
Gap momentum.
A dynamic penalty based on divergence from baseline conditions.
The "Pseudo Crossover" Explained:
A key adaptive feature is the pseudo crossover mechanism. If price action significantly deviates from the projected crossover (for example, if price stays beyond the projected line longer than expected), the indicator acknowledges the projection was incorrect and triggers a "pseudo crossover" event. Essentially, this acts as a reset, updating historical intervals with a weighted adjustment to recalibrate future predictions. In other words, if the indicator’s initial forecast proves inaccurate, it recognizes this quickly, resets itself, and tries again—ensuring it remains responsive and adaptive to actual market conditions.
🧠 Behavioral Theory: Normative Social Influence
This indicator is rooted in behavioral finance theory, specifically leveraging normative social influence (conformity). Traders commonly watch EMA signals (especially the 50 and 200 EMA crossovers). When traders collectively anticipate these signals, they begin trading ahead of actual crossovers, effectively creating self-fulfilling prophecies—similar to Solomon Asch’s famous conformity experiments, where individuals adopted group behaviors even against direct evidence.
This behavior means genuine regime shifts (actual EMA crossovers) rarely occur until EMAs visibly reconverge due to widespread anticipatory trading activity. The indicator quantifies these dynamics by objectively measuring EMA convergence and updating projections accordingly.
📊 How to Use This Indicator
Monitor the background color and opacity as primary visual cues.
A strongly colored background (solid red/green) is an early alert that a squeeze is intensifying—prepare for potential volatility or a regime shift.
Projected crossover lines give a dynamic target bar to watch for trend reversals or confirmations.
After each regime shift, expect a reset of the projection line. The line may seem initially repelled from price action, but it will recalibrate as EMAs converge again.
Trust the pseudo crossover mechanism to automatically recalibrate the indicator if its original projection misses.
🎯 Why Choose This Indicator?
Early Warning: Visual squeeze intensity helps anticipate market breakouts.
Behaviorally Grounded: Leverages real trader psychology (conformity and anticipation).
Objective & Adaptive: Uses real-time, data-driven updates rather than static levels or subjective analysis.
Easy to Interpret: Clear visual signals (arrows, labels, colors) simplify trading decisions.
Self-correcting (Pseudo Crossovers): Quickly adjusts when initial predictions miss, maintaining accuracy over time.
Summary:
The EMA-Based Squeeze Dynamics Indicator combines behavioral insights, dynamic Bayesian-like updates, intuitive visual cues, and a self-correcting pseudo crossover feature to offer traders a reliable early warning system for market squeezes and impending regime shifts. It transparently recalibrates after each regime shift and automatically resets whenever projections prove inaccurate—ensuring you always have an adaptive, realistic forecast.
Whether you're a discretionary trader or algorithmic strategist, this indicator provides a powerful tool to navigate market volatility effectively.

It calculates support, resistance, and an aggregated trendline using a custom Geo library (by kaigouthro). The indicator also tracks breakout signals in a way that a new buy signal is triggered only after a sell signal (and vice versa), ensuring no repeated signals in the same direction.
Important:
This script is provided for educational purposes only. It is experimental and should not be used for live trading without proper testing and validation.
Key Features
Trendline Calculation:
Uses the Geo library to compute support and resistance trendlines based on historical high and low prices. The midpoint of these trendlines forms an aggregated trendline.
Momentum Analysis:
Computes the Rate of Change (ROC) to determine momentum. Breakout conditions are met only if the price and momentum exceed a user-defined threshold.
Monte Carlo Simulation:
Simulates future price movements to estimate the probability of bullish or bearish breakouts over a specified horizon.
Signal Tracking:
A persistent variable ensures that once a buy (or sell) signal is triggered, it won’t repeat until the opposite signal occurs.
Geometric Enhancements:
Calculates an aggregated trend angle and channel width (distance between support and resistance), and draws a perpendicular “breakout zone” line.

Neural Pulse System [Alpha Extract]Neural Pulse System (NPS)
The Neural Pulse System (NPS) is a custom technical indicator that analyzes price action through a probabilistic lens, offering a dynamic view of bullish and bearish tendencies.
Unlike traditional binary classification models, NPS employs Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression with dynamically computed coefficients to produce a smooth probability output ranging from -1 to 1.
Paired with ATR-based bands, this indicator provides an intuitive and volatility-aware approach to trend analysis.
🔶 CALCULATION
The Neural Pulse System utilizes OLS regression to compute probabilities of bullish or bearish price action while incorporating ATR-based bands for volatility context:
Dynamic Coefficients: Coefficients are recalculated in real-time and scaled up to ensure the regression adapts to evolving market conditions.
Ordinary Least Squares (OLS): Uses OLS regression instead of gradient descent for more precise and efficient coefficient estimation.
ATR Bands: Smoothed Average True Range (ATR) bands serve as dynamic boundaries, framing the regression within market volatility.
Probability Output: Instead of a binary result, the output is a continuous probability curve (-1 to 1), helping traders gauge the strength of bullish or bearish momentum.
Formula:
OLS Regression = Line of best fit minimizing squared errors
Probability Signal = Transformed regression output scaled to -1 (bearish) to 1 (bullish)
ATR Bands = Smoothed Average True Range (ATR) to frame price movements within market volatility
🔶 DETAILS
📊 Visual Features:
Probability Curve: Smooth probability signal ranging from -1 (bearish) to 1 (bullish)
ATR Bands: Price action is constrained within volatility bands, preventing extreme deviations
Color-Coded Signals:
Blue to Green: Increasing probability of bullish momentum
Orange to Red: Increasing probability of bearish momentum
Interpretation:
Bullish Bias: Probability output consistently above 0 suggests a bullish trend.
Bearish Bias: Probability output consistently below 0 indicates bearish pressure.
Reversals: Extreme values near -1 or 1, followed by a move toward 0, may signal potential trend reversals.
🔶 EXAMPLES
📌 Trend Identification: Use the probability output to gauge trend direction.
📌Example: On a 1-hour chart, NPS moves from -0.5 to 0.8 as price breaks resistance, signaling a bullish trend.
Reversal Signals: Watch for probability extremes near -1 or 1 followed by a reversal toward 0.
Example: NPS hits 0.9, price touches the upper ATR band, then both retreat—indicating a potential pullback.
📌 Example snapshots:
Volatility Context: ATR bands help assess whether price action aligns with typical market conditions.
Example: During low volatility, the probability signal hovers near 0, and ATR bands tighten, suggesting a potential breakout.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
ATR Period – Defines lookback length for ATR calculation (shorter = more responsive, longer = smoother).
ATR Multiplier – Adjusts band width for better volatility capture.
Regression Length – Controls how many bars feed into the coefficient calculation (longer = smoother, shorter = more reactive).
Scaling Factor – Adjusts the strength of regression coefficients.
Output Smoothing – Option to apply a moving average for a cleaner probability curve
BTC-SPX Momentum Gauge + EMA SignalHere's an explanation of the market dynamics and signal benefits of this script:
Momentum and Sentiment Indicator:
The script uses the momentum of the S&P 500 to change the chart's background color, providing a quick visual cue of market sentiment. Green indicates potential bullish momentum in the broader market, while red suggests bearish momentum. This can help traders gauge overall market direction at a glance.
Bitcoin Trend Analysis:
By plotting the scaled TEMA of Bitcoin (BTC), traders can see how Bitcoin's trend correlates or diverges from the current asset being analyzed. Since Bitcoin is often viewed as a hedge against traditional financial systems or inflation, its trend can signal broader economic shifts or investor sentiment towards alternative investments.
Dual Trend Confirmation:
The script offers two trend lines: one for Bitcoin and one for the current ticker. When these lines move in tandem, it might indicate a strong market trend across both traditional and crypto markets. Divergence between these lines can highlight potential market anomalies or opportunities for arbitrage or hedging.
Smoothness vs. Reactivity:
The use of TEMA for Bitcoin provides a smoother signal than a simple moving average, reducing lag while still reacting to price changes. This can be particularly useful for identifying longer-term trends in Bitcoin's volatile market. The 20-period EMA for the current ticker, on the other hand, gives a quicker response to price changes in the asset you're directly trading.
Cross-Asset Correlation:
By overlaying Bitcoin's trend on another asset's chart, traders can analyze how these markets might influence each other. For instance, if Bitcoin is in an uptrend while a traditional asset is declining, it might suggest capital rotation into cryptocurrencies.
Trading Signals:
Crossovers or divergences between the TEMA of Bitcoin and the EMA of the current ticker could be used as signals for entry or exit points. For example, if the BTC TEMA crosses above the current ticker's EMA, it might suggest a shift towards crypto assets.
Risk Management:
The visual cues from the background color and moving averages can aid in risk management. For example, trading in the direction of the momentum indicated by the background color might be seen as going with the market flow, potentially reducing risk.
Macro-Economic Insights:
The relationship between Bitcoin and traditional markets can offer insights into macroeconomic conditions, particularly related to inflation, monetary policy, and investor sentiment towards fiat currencies.
Headwind and tailwind:
Currently BTC correlated trade instruments experience headwind or tailwind from the broader market. This indicator lets the user see it to help their trade decision process.
Additional Statement:
As the market realizes the dangers of the fiat that its construct is built upon and evolves and migrates into stable money, incorruptible by inflation, this indicator will reveal the external influence of that corruptible and the internal influence of the incorruptible; having diminishing returns as the rise of stable money overtakes the treasuries of the fiat construct.
Twiggs Money FlowTwiggs Money Flow (TMF)
This indicator is an implementation of the Twiggs Money Flow (TMF), a volume-based tool designed to measure buying and selling pressure over a specified period. TMF is an enhancement of Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), utilizing more sophisticated smoothing techniques for improved accuracy and reduced noise. This version is highly customizable and includes advanced features for both new and experienced traders.
What is Twiggs Money Flow?
Twiggs Money Flow was developed by Colin Twiggs to provide a clearer picture of market momentum and the balance between buyers and sellers. It uses a combination of price action, trading volume, and range calculations to assess whether a market is under buying or selling pressure.
Unlike traditional volume indicators, TMF incorporates Weighted Moving Averages (WMA) by default but allows for other moving average types (SMA, EMA, VWMA) for added flexibility. This makes it adaptable to various trading styles and market conditions.
Features of This Script:
Customizable Moving Average Types:
Select from SMA , EMA , WMA , or VWMA to smooth volume and price-based calculations.
Tailor the indicator to align with your trading strategy or the asset's behavior.
Optional HMA Smoothing:

Perfect for traders who want to reduce lag and capture trends earlier.
Dynamic Thresholds for Signal Filtering:
Set user-defined thresholds for Long (LT) and Short (ST) signals to highlight significant momentum.
Focus on actionable trends by ignoring noise around neutral levels.
Bar Coloring for Visual Clarity:
Automatically colors your chart bars based on TMF values:
Aqua for strong bullish signals (above the long threshold).
Fuchsia for strong bearish signals (below the short threshold).
Gray for neutral or undecided market conditions.
Ensures that trend direction and strength are visually intuitive.
Configurable Lookback Period:
Adjust the sensitivity of TMF by customizing the length of the lookback period to suit different timeframes and market conditions.
How It Works:
True Range Calculation: The script determines the high, low, and close range to calculate buying and selling pressure.
Adjusted Volume: Incorporates the relationship between price and volume to gauge whether trading activity is favoring buyers or sellers.
Weighted Moving Averages (WMAs): Smooths both volume and adjusted volume values to eliminate erratic fluctuations.
TMF Line: Computes the ratio of adjusted volume to total volume, representing the net buying/selling pressure as a percentage.
HMA Option (if enabled): Smooths the TMF line further to reduce lag and enhance trend identification.
Bar Coloring Logic:
Bars are colored dynamically based on TMF values, thresholds, and smoothing preferences.
Provides an at-a-glance understanding of market conditions.
Input Parameters:
Lookback Period: Defines the number of bars used to calculate TMF (default: 21).
Use HMA Smoothing: Toggle Hull Moving Average smoothing (default: true).
HMA Smoothing Length: Length of the HMA smoothing period (default: 14).
Moving Average Type: Select SMA, EMA, WMA, or VWMA (default: WMA).
Long Threshold (LT): Threshold value above which a long signal is considered (default: 0).
Short Threshold (ST): Threshold value below which a short signal is considered (default: 0).
How to Use It:
Confirm Trends: TMF can validate trends by identifying periods of sustained buying or selling pressure.
Divergence Signals: Watch for divergences between price and TMF to anticipate potential reversals.
Filter Trades: Use the thresholds to ignore weak signals and focus on strong trends.
Combine with Other Indicators: Pair TMF with trend-following or momentum indicators (e.g., RSI, Bollinger Bands) for a comprehensive trading strategy.
Example Use Cases:
Spotting breakouts when TMF crosses above the long threshold.
Identifying sell-offs when TMF dips below the short threshold.
Avoiding sideways markets by ignoring neutral (gray) bars.
Notes:
This indicator is highly customizable, making it versatile across different assets (e.g., stocks, crypto, forex).
While the default settings are robust, tweaking the lookback period, moving average type, and thresholds is recommended for different trading instruments or strategies.

Cross Dots: Visual markers at points where the MACD crosses the Signal line for easy identification of potential trend shifts.
This indicator is a versatile tool for traders who want to visualize MACD-based momentum and crossover signals in multiple timeframes with clear visual cues on price bars.
Gaussian Acceleration ArrayIndicators play a role in analyzing price action, trends, and potential reversals. Among many of these, velocity and acceleration have held a significant place due to their ability to provide insight into momentum and rate of change. This indicator takes the old calculation and tweaks it with gaussian smoothing and logarithmic function to ensure proper scaling.
A Brief on Velocity and Acceleration: The concept of velocity in trading refers to the speed at which price changes over time, while acceleration is the rate of change(ROC) of velocity. Early momentum indicators like the RSI and MACD laid foundation for understanding price velocity. However, as markets evolve so do we as technical analysts, we seek the most advanced tools.
The Acceleration/Deceleration Oscillator, introduced by Bill Williams, was one of the early attempts to measure acceleration. It helped gauge whether the market was gaining or losing momentum. Over time more specific tools like the "Awesome Oscillator"(AO) emerged, which has a set length on the datasets measured.
Gaussian Functions: Named after the mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, the Gaussian function describes a bell-shaped curve, often referred to as the "normal distribution." In trading these functions are applied to smooth data and reduce noise, focusing on underlying patterns.
The Gaussian Acceleration Array leverages this function to create a smoothed representation of market acceleration.
How does it work?
This indicator calculates acceleration based the highs and lows of each dataset
Once the weighted average for velocity is determined, its rate of change essentially becomes the acceleration
It then plots multiple lines with customizable variance from the primary selected length
Practical Tips:
The Gaussian Acceleration Array offers various customizable parameters, including the sample period, smoothing function, and array variance. Experiment with these settings to tailor it to preferred timeframes and styles.
The color-coded lines and background zones make it easier to interpret the indicator at a glance. The backgrounds indicate increasing or decreasing momentum simply as a visual aid while the lines state how the velocity average is performing. Combining this with other tools can signal shifts in market dynamics.
Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator### In-Depth Analysis of the "Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator" Indicator
---
#### Introduction to the Indicator
The "Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator" is an advanced yet user-friendly technical analysis tool designed to help traders across all levels of experience identify and follow market trends with precision. This indicator builds upon the fundamental principles of the Simple Moving Average (SMA), a cornerstone of technical analysis, to deliver a clear, visually intuitive overlay on the price chart. Through its strategic use of color-coding and customizable parameters, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator provides traders with actionable insights into market dynamics, enhancing their ability to make informed trading decisions.
#### Core Concepts and Methodology
1. **Foundational Principle – Simple Moving Average (SMA):**
- The Simple Moving Average (SMA) is the heart of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator. The SMA is a widely-used technical indicator that calculates the average price of an asset over a specified number of periods. By smoothing out price data, the SMA helps to reduce the noise from short-term fluctuations, providing a clearer picture of the overall trend.
- In the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, two SMAs are employed:
- **Primary SMA (oscValue):** This is applied to the closing price of the asset over a user-defined period (default is 14 periods). This SMA tracks the price closely and is sensitive to changes in market direction.
- **Smoothing SMA (oscV):** This second SMA is applied to the primary SMA, further smoothing the data and helping to filter out minor price movements that might otherwise be mistaken for trend reversals. The default period for this smoothing is 50, but it can be adjusted to suit the trader's preference.
2. **Color-Coding for Trend Visualization:**
- One of the most distinctive features of this indicator is its use of color to represent market trends. The indicator’s line changes color based on the relationship between the primary SMA and the smoothing SMA:
- **Bullish (Green):** The line turns green when the primary SMA is equal to or greater than the smoothing SMA, indicating that the market is in an upward trend.
- **Bearish (Red):** Conversely, the line turns red when the primary SMA falls below the smoothing SMA, signaling a downward trend.
- This color-coded system provides traders with an immediate, easy-to-interpret visual cue about the market’s direction, allowing for quick decision-making.
#### Detailed Explanation of Inputs
1. **Bullish Color (Default: Green #00ff00):**
- This input allows traders to customize the color that represents bullish trends on the chart. The default setting is green, a color commonly associated with upward market movement. However, traders can adjust this to any color that suits their visual preferences or matches their overall chart theme.
2. **Bearish Color (Default: Red RGB: 245, 0, 0):**
- The bearish color input determines the color of the line when the market is trending downwards. The default setting is a vivid red, signaling caution or selling opportunities. Like the bullish color, this can be customized to fit the trader’s needs.
3. **Line Thickness (Default: 5):**
- This setting controls the thickness of the line plotted by the indicator. The default thickness of 5 makes the line prominent on the chart, ensuring that the trend is easily visible even in complex or crowded chart setups. Traders can adjust the thickness to make the line thinner or thicker, depending on their visual preferences.
4. **Primary SMA Period (Value 1 - Default: 14):**
- The primary SMA period defines how many periods (e.g., days, hours) are used to calculate the moving average based on the asset’s closing prices. The default period of 14 is a balanced setting that offers a good mix of responsiveness and stability, but traders can adjust this depending on their trading style:
- **Shorter Periods (e.g., 5-10):** These make the indicator more sensitive, capturing trends more quickly but also increasing the likelihood of reacting to short-term price fluctuations or "noise."
- **Longer Periods (e.g., 20-50):** These smooth the data more, providing a more stable trend line that is less prone to whipsaws but may be slower to respond to trend changes.
5. **Smoothing SMA Period (Value 2 - Default: 50):**
- The smoothing SMA period determines how much the primary SMA is smoothed. A longer smoothing period results in a more gradual, stable line that focuses on the broader trend. The default of 50 is designed to smooth out most of the short-term fluctuations while still being responsive enough to detect significant trend shifts.
- **Customization:**
- **Shorter Smoothing Periods (e.g., 20-30):** Make the indicator more responsive, better for fast-moving markets or for traders who want to capture quick trends.
- **Longer Smoothing Periods (e.g., 70-100):** Enhance stability, ideal for long-term traders looking to avoid reacting to minor price movements.
#### Unique Characteristics and Advantages
1. **Simplicity and Clarity:**
- The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator’s design prioritizes simplicity without sacrificing effectiveness. By relying on the widely understood SMA, it avoids the complexity of more esoteric indicators while still providing reliable trend signals. This simplicity makes it accessible to traders of all levels, from novices who are just learning about technical analysis to experienced traders looking for a straightforward, dependable tool.
2. **Visual Feedback Mechanism:**
- The indicator’s use of color to signify market trends is a particularly powerful feature. This visual feedback mechanism allows traders to assess market conditions at a glance. The clarity of the green and red color scheme reduces the mental effort required to interpret the indicator, freeing the trader to focus on strategy execution.
3. **Adaptability Across Markets and Timeframes:**
- One of the strengths of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator is its versatility. The basic principles of moving averages apply equally well across different asset classes and timeframes. Whether trading stocks, forex, commodities, or cryptocurrencies, traders can use this indicator to gain insights into market trends.
- **Intraday Trading:** For day traders who operate on short timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 5-minute charts), the oscillator can be adjusted to be more responsive, capturing quick shifts in momentum.
- **Swing Trading:** Swing traders, who typically hold positions for several days to weeks, will find the default settings or slightly adjusted periods ideal for identifying and riding medium-term trends.
- **Long-Term Trading:** Position traders and investors can adjust the indicator to focus on long-term trends by increasing the periods for both the primary and smoothing SMAs, filtering out minor fluctuations and highlighting sustained market movements.
4. **Minimal Lag:**
- One of the challenges with moving averages is lag—the delay between when the price changes and when the indicator reflects this change. The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator addresses this by allowing traders to adjust the periods to find a balance between responsiveness and stability. While all SMAs inherently have some lag, the customizable nature of this indicator helps traders mitigate this effect to align with their specific trading goals.
5. **Customizable and Intuitive:**
- While many technical indicators come with a fixed set of parameters, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator is fully customizable, allowing traders to tailor it to their trading style, market conditions, and personal preferences. This makes it a highly flexible tool that can be adjusted as markets evolve or as a trader’s strategy changes over time.
#### Practical Applications for Different Trader Profiles
1. **Day Traders:**
- **Use Case:** Day traders can customize the SMA periods to create a faster, more responsive indicator. This allows them to capture short-term trends and make quick decisions. For example, reducing the primary SMA to 5 and the smoothing SMA to 20 can help day traders react promptly to intraday price movements.
- **Strategy Integration:** Day traders might use the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator in conjunction with volume-based indicators to confirm the strength of a trend before entering or exiting trades.
2. **Swing Traders:**
- **Use Case:** Swing traders can use the default settings or slightly adjust them to smooth out minor price fluctuations while still capturing medium-term trends. This approach helps in identifying the optimal points to enter or exit trades based on the broader market direction.
- **Strategy Integration:** Swing traders can combine this indicator with oscillators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to confirm overbought or oversold conditions, thereby refining their entry and exit strategies.
3. **Position Traders:**
- **Use Case:** Position traders, who hold trades for extended periods, can extend the SMA periods to focus on long-term trends. By doing so, they minimize the impact of short-term market noise and focus on the underlying trend.
- **Strategy Integration:** Position traders might use the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator in combination with fundamental analysis. The indicator can help confirm the timing of entries and exits based on broader economic or corporate developments.
4. **Algorithmic and Quantitative Traders:**
- **Use Case:** The simplicity and clear logic of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator make it an excellent candidate for algorithmic trading strategies. Its binary output—bullish or bearish—can be easily coded into automated trading systems.
- **Strategy Integration:** Quant traders might use the indicator as part of a larger trading system that incorporates multiple indicators and rules, optimizing the SMA periods based on historical backtesting to achieve the best results.
5. **Novice Traders:**

The visual simplicity of the color-coded line helps novice traders quickly understand market direction without the need to interpret complex data.
- **Educational Value:** The indicator serves as an excellent starting point for those new to technical analysis, providing a practical example of how moving averages work in a real-world trading environment.
#### Combining the Indicator with Other Tools
1. **Relative Strength Index (RSI):**
- The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. When combined with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, traders can look for instances where the RSI shows divergence from the price while the oscillator confirms the trend. This can be a powerful signal of an impending reversal or continuation.
2. **Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD):**
- The MACD is another popular trend-following momentum indicator. By using it alongside the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, traders can confirm the strength of a trend and identify potential entry and exit points with greater confidence. For example, a bullish crossover on the MACD that coincides with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator turning green can be a strong buy signal.
3. **Volume Indicators:**
- Volume is often considered the fuel behind price movements. Using volume indicators like the On-Balance Volume (OBV) or Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) in conjunction with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator can help traders confirm the validity of a trend. A trend identified by the oscillator that is supported by increasing volume is typically more reliable.
4. **Fibonacci Retracement:**
- Fibonacci retracement levels are used to identify potential reversal levels in a trending market. When the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator indicates a trend, traders can use Fibonacci retracement levels to find potential entry points that align with the broader trend direction.
#### Implementation in Different Market Conditions
1. **Trending Markets:**
- The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator excels in trending markets, where it provides clear signals on the direction of the trend. In a strong uptrend, the line will remain green, helping traders stay in the trade for longer periods. In a downtrend, the red line will signal the continuation of bearish conditions, prompting traders to stay short or avoid long positions.
2. **Sideways or Range-Bound Markets:**
- In range-bound markets, where price oscillates within a confined range without a clear trend, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator may produce more frequent changes in color. While this could indicate potential reversals at the range boundaries, traders should be cautious of false signals. It may be beneficial to pair the oscillator with a volatility indicator to better navigate such conditions.
3. **Volatile Markets:**
- In highly volatile markets, where prices can swing rapidly, the sensitivity of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator can be adjusted by modifying the SMA periods. A shorter SMA period might capture quick trends, but traders should be aware of the increased risk of whipsaws. Combining the oscillator with a volatility filter or using it in a higher time frame might help mitigate some of this risk.
#### Final Thoughts
The "Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator" is a versatile, easy-to-use indicator that stands out for its simplicity, visual clarity, and adaptability. It provides traders with a straightforward method to identify and follow market trends, using the well-established concept of moving averages.

Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) Buy Sell Strategy [TradeDots]The "Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) Buy Sell Strategy" leverages the CMO indicator to identify short-term buy and sell opportunities.
HOW DOES IT WORK
The standard CMO indicator measures the difference between recent gains and losses, divided by the total price movement over the same period. However, this version of the CMO has some limitations.
The primary disadvantage of the original CMO is its responsiveness to short-term volatility, making the signals less smooth and more erratic, especially in fluctuating markets. This instability can lead to misleading buy or sell signals.
To address this, we integrated the concept from the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator. By applying a 9-period exponential moving average (EMA) to the CMO line, we obtained a smoothed signal line. This line acts as a filter, identifying confirmed overbought or oversold states, thereby reducing the number of false signals.
Similar to the MACD histogram, we generate columns representing the difference between the CMO and its signal line, reflecting market momentum. We use this momentum indicator as a criterion for entry and exit points. Trades are executed when there's a convergence of CMO and signal lines during an oversold state, and they are closed when the CMO line diverges from the signal line, indicating increased selling pressure.
APPLICATION
Since the 9-period EMA smooths the CMO line, it's less susceptible to extreme price fluctuations. However, this smoothing also makes it more challenging to breach the original +50 and -50 benchmarks.
To increase trading opportunities, we've tightened the boundary ranges. Users can customize the target benchmark lines in the settings to adjust for the volatility of the underlying asset.
The 'cool down period' is essentially the number of bars that await before the next signal generation. This feature is employed to dodge the occurrence of multiple signals in a short period.

TASC 2024.01 Gap Momentum System█ OVERVIEW
TASC's January 2024 edition of Traders' Tips features an article titled “Gap Momentum” by Perry J. Kaufman. The article discusses how a trader might create a momentum strategy based on opening gap data. This script implements the Gap Momentum system presented therein.
█ CONCEPTS
In the article, Perry J. Kaufman introduces Gap Momentum as a cumulative series constructed in the same way as On-Balance Volume (OBV) , but using gap openings (today’s open minus yesterday’s close).
To smoothen the resulting time series (i.e., obtain the " signal line "), the author applies a simple moving average . Subsequently, he proposes the following two trading rules for a long-only trading system:
• Enter a long position when the signal line is moving higher.
• Exit when the signal line is moving lower.
█ CALCULATIONS
The calculation of Gap Momentum involves the following steps:
1. Calculate the ratio of the sum of positive gaps over the past N days to the sum of negative gaps (absolute values) over the same time period.
2. Add the resulting gap ratio to the cumulative time series. This time series is the Gap Momentum.
3. Keep moving forward, as in an N-day moving average.
Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) of Money Flow Index (MFI)"He who does not know how to make predictions and makes light of his opponents, underestimating his ability, will certainly be defeated by them."
(Sun Tzu - The Art of War)
▮ Introduction
The Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) is a technical analysis indicator that uses the difference between the current closing price and the high or low price over a specific time period to measure price momentum.
On the other hand, the Money Flow Index (MFI) is an indicator that uses volume and price to measure buying and selling pressure.
When these two indicators are combined, they can provide a more comprehensive view of price direction and market strength.
▮ Improvements
By combining SMI with MFI, we can gain even more insights into the market. One way to do this is to use the MFI as an input to the SMI, rather than just using price.
This means we are measuring momentum based on buying and selling pressure rather than just price.
Another way to improve this indicator is to adjust the periods to suit your specific trading needs.
▮ What to look
When using the SMI MFI indicator, there are a few things to look out for.
First, look at the SMI signal line.
When the line crosses above -40, it is considered a buy signal, while the crossing below +40 is considered a sell signal.
Also, pay attention to divergences between the SMI MFI and the price.
If price is rising but the SMI MFI is showing negative divergence, it could indicate that momentum is waning and a reversal could be in the offing.
Likewise, if price is falling but the SMI MFI is showing positive divergence, this could indicate that momentum is building and a reversal could also be in the offing.
In the examples below, I show the use in conjunction with the price SMI, in which the MFI SMI helps to anticipate divergences:
In summary, the SMI MFI is a useful indicator that can provide valuable insights into market direction and price strength.
By adjusting the timeframes and paying attention to divergences and signal line crossovers, traders can use it as part of a broader trading strategy.
However, remember that no indicator is a magic bullet and should always be used in conjunction with other analytics and indicators to make informed trading decisions.
