Auto-Length Moving Average + Trend Signals (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Auto-Length Moving Average + Trend Signals (Zeiierman) is an easy-to-use indicator designed to help traders dynamically adjust their moving average length based on market conditions. This tool adapts in real-time, expanding and contracting the moving average based on trend strength and momentum shifts.
The indicator smooths out price fluctuations by modifying its length while ensuring responsiveness to new trends. In addition to its adaptive length algorithm, it incorporates trend confirmation signals, helping traders identify potential trend reversals and continuations with greater confidence.
This indicator suits scalpers, swing traders, and trend-following investors who want a self-adjusting moving average that adapts to volatility, momentum, and price action dynamics.
█ How It Works
⚪ Dynamic Moving Average Length
The core feature of this indicator is its ability to automatically adjust the length of the moving average based on trend persistence and market conditions:
Expands in strong trends to reduce noise.
Contracts in choppy or reversing markets for faster reaction.
This allows for a more accurate moving average that aligns with current price dynamics.
⚪ Trend Confirmation & Signals
The indicator includes built-in trend detection logic, classifying trends based on market structure. It evaluates trend strength based on consecutive bars and smooths out transitions between bullish, bearish, and neutral conditions.
Uptrend: Price is persistently above the adjusted moving average.
Downtrend: Price remains below the adjusted moving average.
Neutral: Price fluctuates around the moving average, indicating possible consolidation.
⚪ Adaptive Trend Smoothing
A smoothing factor is applied to enhance trend readability while minimizing excessive lag. This balances reactivity with stability, making it easier to follow longer-term trends while avoiding false signals.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Identification
Bullish Trend: The indicator confirms an uptrend when the price consistently stays above the dynamically adjusted moving average.
Bearish Trend: A downtrend is recognized when the price remains below the moving average.
⚪ Trade Entry & Exit
Enter long when the dynamic moving average is green and a trend signal occurs. Exit when the price crosses below the dynamic moving average.
Enter short when the dynamic moving average is red and a trend signal occurs. Exit when the price crosses above the dynamic moving average.
█ Slope-Based Reset
This mode resets the trend counter when the moving average slope changes direction.
⚪ Interpretation & Insights
Best for trend-following traders who want to filter out noise and only reset when a clear shift in momentum occurs.
Higher slope length (N): More stable trends, fewer resets.
Lower slope length (N): More reactive to small price swings, frequent resets.
Useful in swing trading to track significant trend reversals.
█ RSI-Based Reset
The counter resets when the Relative Strength Index (RSI) crosses predefined overbought or oversold levels.
⚪ Interpretation & Insights
Best for reversal traders who look for extreme overbought/oversold conditions.
High RSI threshold (e.g., 80/20): Fewer resets, only extreme conditions trigger adjustments.
Lower RSI threshold (e.g., 60/40): More frequent resets, detecting smaller corrections.
Great for detecting exhaustion in trends before potential reversals.
█ Volume-Based Reset
A reset occurs when current volume significantly exceeds its moving average, signaling a shift in market participation.
⚪ Interpretation & Insights
Best for traders who follow institutional activity (high volume often means large players are active).
Higher volume SMA length: More stable trends, only resets on massive volume spikes.
Lower volume SMA length: More reactive to short-term volume shifts.
Useful in identifying breakout conditions and trend acceleration points.
█ Bollinger Band-Based Reset
A reset occurs when price closes above the upper Bollinger Band or below the lower Bollinger Band, signaling potential overextension.
⚪ Interpretation & Insights
Best for traders looking for volatility-based trend shifts.
Higher Bollinger Band multiplier (k = 2.5+): Captures only major price extremes.
Lower Bollinger Band multiplier (k = 1.5): Resets on moderate volatility changes.
Useful for detecting overextensions in strong trends before potential retracements.
█ MACD-Based Reset
A reset occurs when the MACD line crosses the signal line, indicating a momentum shift.
⚪ Interpretation & Insights
Best for momentum traders looking for trend continuation vs. exhaustion signals.
Longer MACD lengths (260, 120, 90): Captures major trend shifts.
Shorter MACD lengths (10, 5, 3): Reacts quickly to momentum changes.
Useful for detecting strong divergences and market shifts.
█ Stochastic-Based Reset
A reset occurs when Stochastic %K crosses overbought or oversold levels.
⚪ Interpretation & Insights
Best for short-term traders looking for fast momentum shifts.
Longer Stochastic length: Filters out false signals.
Shorter Stochastic length: Captures quick intraday shifts.
█ CCI-Based Reset
A reset occurs when the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) crosses predefined overbought or oversold levels. The CCI measures the price deviation from its statistical mean, making it a useful tool for detecting overextensions in price action.
⚪ Interpretation & Insights
Best for cycle traders who aim to identify overextended price deviations in trending or ranging markets.
Higher CCI threshold (e.g., ±200): Detects extreme overbought/oversold conditions before reversals.
Lower CCI threshold (e.g., ±10): More sensitive to trend shifts, useful for early signal detection.
Ideal for detecting momentum shifts before price reverts to its mean or continues trending strongly.
█ Momentum-Based Reset
A reset occurs when Momentum (Rate of Change) crosses zero, indicating a potential shift in price direction.
⚪ Interpretation & Insights
Best for trend-following traders who want to track acceleration vs. deceleration.
Higher momentum length: Captures longer-term shifts.
Lower momentum length: More responsive to short-term trend changes.
█ How to Interpret the Trend Strength Table
The Trend Strength Table provides valuable insights into the current market conditions by tracking how the dynamic moving average is adjusting based on trend persistence. Each metric in the table plays a role in understanding the strength, longevity, and stability of a trend.
⚪ Counter Value
Represents the current length of trend persistence before a reset occurs.
The higher the counter, the longer the current trend has been in place without resetting.
When this value reaches the Counter Break Threshold, the moving average resets and contracts to become more reactive.
Example:
A low counter value (e.g., 10) suggests a recent trend reset, meaning the market might be changing directions frequently.
A high counter value (e.g., 495) means the trend has been ongoing for a long time, indicating strong trend persistence.
⚪ Trend Strength
Measures how strong the current trend is based on the trend confirmation logic.
Higher values indicate stronger trends, while lower values suggest weaker trends or consolidations.
This value is dynamic and updates based on price action.
Example:
Trend Strength of 760 → Indicates a high-confidence trend.
Trend Strength of 50 → Suggests weak price action, possibly a choppy market.
⚪ Highest Trend Score
Tracks the strongest trend score recorded during the session.
Helps traders identify the most dominant trend observed in the timeframe.
This metric is useful for analyzing historical trend strength and comparing it with current conditions.
Example:
Highest Trend Score = 760 → Suggests that at some point, there was a strong trend in play.
If the current trend strength is much lower than this value, it could indicate trend exhaustion.
⚪ Average Trend Score
This is a rolling average of trend strength across the session.
Provides a bigger picture of how the trend strength fluctuates over time.
If the average trend score is high, the market has had persistent trends.
If it's low, the market may have been choppy or sideways.
Example:
Average Trend Score of 147 vs. Current Trend Strength of 760 → Indicates that the current trend is significantly stronger than the historical average, meaning a breakout might be occurring.
Average Trend Score of 700+ → Suggests a strong trending market overall.

CandelaCharts - Swing Failure Pattern (SFP)# SWING FAILURE PATTERN
📝 Overview
The Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) indicator is designed to identify and highlight Swing Failure Patterns on a user’s chart. This pattern typically emerges when significant market participants generate liquidity by driving price action to key levels. An SFP occurs when the price temporarily breaks above a resistance level or below a support level, only to quickly reverse and return within the previous range. These movements are often associated with stop-loss hunting or liquidity grabs, providing traders with potential opportunities to anticipate reversals or key market turning points.
A Bullish SFP occurs when the price dips below a key support level, triggering stop-loss orders, but then swiftly reverses upward, signaling a potential upward trend or reversal.
A Bearish SFP happens when the price spikes above a key resistance level, triggering stop-losses of short positions, but then quickly reverses downward, indicating a potential bearish trend or reversal.
The indicator is a powerful tool for traders, helping to identify liquidity grabs and potential reversal points in real-time. Marking bullish and bearish Swing Failure Patterns on the chart, it provides clear visual cues for spotting market traps set by major players, enabling more informed trading decisions and improved risk management.

📒 Usage
The best approach is to combine a few complementary indicators to gain a clearer market perspective. This doesn’t mean relying on the Golden Cross, RSI divergences, SFPs, and funding rates simultaneously, but rather focusing on one or two that align well in a given scenario.
The example above demonstrates the confluence of a Bearish Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) with an RSI divergence. This combination strengthens the signal, as the Bearish SFP indicates a potential reversal after a liquidity grab, while the RSI divergence confirms weakening momentum at the key level. Together, these indicators provide a more robust setup for identifying potential market reversals with greater confidence.
🚨 Alerts
This script provides alert options for all signals.
Bearish Signal
A bearish signal is triggered when a Bearish SFP is formed.
Bullish Signal

EXPONOVA by @thejamiulEXPONOVA is an advanced EMA-based indicator designed to provide a visually intuitive and actionable representation of market trends. It combines two EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages) with a custom gradient fill to help traders identify trend reversals, strength, and the potential duration of trends.
This indicator uses a gradient color fill between two EMAs—one short-term (20-period) and one longer-term (55-period). The gradient dynamically adjusts based on the proximity and relationship of the closing price to the EMAs, giving traders a unique visual insight into trend momentum and potential exhaustion points.
Key Features:
Dynamic Gradient Fill:
The fill color between the EMAs changes based on the bar's position relative to the longer-term EMA.
A fading gradient visually conveys the strength and duration of the trend. The closer the closing price is to crossing the EMA, the stronger the gradient, making trends easy to spot.
Precision EMA Calculations:
The indicator plots two EMAs (20 and 55) without cluttering the chart, ensuring traders have a clean and informative display.
Ease of Use:
Designed for both novice and advanced traders, this tool is effective in identifying trend reversals and entry/exit points.
Trend Reversal Detection:
Built-in logic identifies bars since the last EMA cross, dynamically adjusting the gradient to signal potential trend changes.
How It Works:
This indicator calculates two EMAs:
EMA 20 (Fast EMA): Tracks short-term price movements, providing early signals of potential trend changes.
EMA 55 (Slow EMA): Captures broader trends and smoothens noise for a clearer directional bias.
The area between the two EMAs is filled with a dynamic color gradient, which evolves based on how far the price has moved above or below EMA 55. The gradient acts as a visual cue to the strength and duration of the current trend:
Bright green shades indicate bullish momentum building over time.
Red tones highlight bearish momentum.
The fading effect in the gradient provides traders with an intuitive representation of trend strength, helping them gauge whether the trend is accelerating, weakening, or reversing.
Gradient-Filled Region: Unique visualization to simplify trend analysis without cluttering the chart.
Dynamic Trend Strength Indication: The gradient dynamically adjusts based on the price's proximity to EMA 55, giving traders insight into momentum changes.
Minimalist Design: The EMAs themselves are not displayed by default to maintain a clean chart while still benefiting from their analysis.
Customizable Lengths: Pre-configured with EMA lengths of 20 and 55, but easily modifiable for different trading styles or instruments.
How to Use This Indicator
Trend Detection: Look at the gradient fill for visual confirmation of trend direction and strength.
Trade Entries:
Enter long positions when the price crosses above EMA 55, with the gradient transitioning to green.
Enter short positions when the price crosses below EMA 55, with the gradient transitioning to red.
Trend Strength Monitoring:
A brighter gradient suggests a sustained and stronger trend.
A fading gradient may indicate weakening momentum and a potential reversal.
Important Notes
This indicator uses a unique method of color visualization to enhance decision-making but does not generate buy or sell signals directly.

How to Use:
Trend Following:
Use the gradient fill to identify the trend direction.
A consistently bright gradient indicates a strong trend, while fading colors suggest weakening momentum.
Reversal Signals:
Watch for gradient changes near the EMA crossover points.
These can signal potential trend reversals or consolidation phases.
Confirmation Tool:
Combine EXPONOVA with other indicators or candlestick patterns for enhanced confirmation of trade setups.
[blackat] L1 Funding Bottom Wave█ OVERVIEW
The script "Funding Bottom Wave" is an indicator designed to analyze market conditions based on multiple smoothed price calculations and specific thresholds. It calculates several values such as B-value, VAR2-value, and additional signals like SK and SD to identify buy/sell levels and reversals, aiding traders in making informed decisions.
█ LOGICAL FRAMEWORK
The script consists of several main components:
• Input parameters that allow customization of calculation periods and thresholds.
• A custom function funding_wave that computes various financial metrics and conditions.
• Plotting commands to visualize different aspects of those computations.
Data flows from input parameters into the funding_wave function where calculations are performed. These results are then plotted according to specified conditions. The script uses conditional expressions to define when certain plots should appear based on the computed values.
█ CUSTOM FUNCTIONS
funding_wave Function:
This function takes six arguments: close_price, high_price, low_price, open_price, period_b, and period_var2. It performs several calculations including:
• Price range percentage normalized between lowest and highest prices over 60 bars.
• SMA of this value over periods defined by period_b and period_var2.
• Several moving averages (MA), EMAs, and extreme point markers (highest/lowest).
• Multiple condition checks involving these metrics leading to buy/high signal flags.
Returns: An array containing B-value, VAR2-value, SK-value, SD-value, along with various conditional signal indicators.
█ KEY POINTS AND TECHNIQUES
• Utilizes built-in TA functions (ta.highest, ta.lowest, ta.sma, ta.ema) for smoothing and normalization purposes.
• Implements extensive use of ternary operators and boolean logic to determine plot visibility based on specific criteria.
• Employs column-style plotting which highlights significant transitions in calculated metric levels visually.
• No explicit loops; computations utilize vectorized operations inherent to Pine Script's nature.

Related concepts/features:
• Using arrays to encapsulate complex return structures for reusability across scripts/functions.
• Leveraging na effectively within plotting constructs ensures cleaner chart presentation avoiding clutter from irrelevant points.
█ MARKET MEANING OF DIFFERENT COLORED COLUMNS
Red Columns ("B above Var2"):
• Market Interpretation: When the red columns appear, it indicates that the B-value is higher than the VAR2-value. This suggests a strengthening upward trend or consolidation phase where the market might be experiencing buying pressure relative to recent trends.
• Trading Implication: Traders may consider this as a potentially bullish sign, indicating strength in the underlying asset.
Green Columns ("B below Var2"):
• Market Interpretation: Green columns indicate that the B-value is lower than the VAR2-value. This could suggest downward trend acceleration or weakening buying pressure compared to recent trends.
• Trading Implication: Traders might interpret this as a bearish signal, suggesting a possible decline in the market.
Aqua Columns ("SK below SD"):
• Market Interpretation: Aqua columns show instances where the SK-value is below the SD-value. This typically signifies that the short-term stochastic oscillator (or similar measure) is signaling oversold conditions but not yet reaching extremes.
• Trading Implication: While not necessarily a strong sell signal, aqua columns might prompt traders to look for further confirmation before entering long positions.
Fuchsia Columns ("SK above SD"):
• Market Interpretation: Fuchsia columns represent situations where the SK-value exceeds the SD-value. This usually indicates overbought conditions in the near term.
• Trading Implication: Traders often view fuchsia columns as cautionary signs, possibly prompting them to exit existing long positions or refrain from adding new ones without further analysis.
Yellow Columns ("High Condition" and "High Condition Both"):
• Market Interpretation: Yellow columns occur when either the SK-value or B-value crosses above predefined high thresholds (e.g., 90). If both cross simultaneously, they form "High Condition Both."
• Trading Implication: Strongly bullish signals indicating overheated markets prone to corrections. Traders may see this as a good opportunity to take profits or prepare for a pullback/corrective move.
Blue Columns ("Low Condition" and "Low Condition Both"):
• Market Interpretation: Blue columns emerge when either the SK-value or B-value drops below predefined low thresholds (e.g., 10). Simultaneous crossing forms "Low Condition Both."
• Trading Implication: Potentially bullish reversal setups once the market starts showing signs of bottoming out after being significantly oversold. Traders might use blue columns as entry points for establishing long positions or hedging against anticipated rebounds.
Light Purple Columns ("Low Condition with Reversal" and "Low Condition Both with Reversal"):
• Market Interpretation: Light purple columns signify moments when the SK-value or B-value falls below their respective thresholds but has started reversing upwards immediately afterward. If both fall and reverse together, it's denoted as "Low Condition Both with Reversal."
• Trading Implication: Suggests a possible early-stage rebound from an extended downtrend or sideways movement. This could be seen as a highly reliable bulls' flag formation setup.
White Columns ("High Condition with Reversal" and "High Condition Both with Reversal"):
• Market Interpretation: White columns denote scenarios where the SK-value or B-value breaches high thresholds (e.g., 90) but begins descending shortly thereafter. Both simultaneously crossing leads to "High Condition Both with Reversal."
• Trading Implication: Indicative of peak overbought conditions followed quickly by exhaustion in buying interest. This warns traders about potential imminent retracements or pullbacks, prompting exits or short positions.
█ SUMMARY TABLE OF COLUMN COLORS AND THEIR MEANINGS
Color Type Market Interpretation Trading Implication
Red B above Var2 Strengthening upward trend/consolidation Bullish sign
Green B below Var2 Downward trend acceleration/weakening buying pressure Bearish sign
Aqua SK below SD Oversold conditions but not extreme Cautionary signal
Fuchsia SK above SD Overbought conditions Take profit/precaution
Yellow High Condition / High Condition Both Overheated market, likely correction coming Good time to exit/additional selling
Blue Low Condition / Low Condition Both Possible bull/rebound setup Entry point/hedging
Light Purple Low Condition with Reversal / Low Condition Both with Reversal Early-stage rebound from downtrend Reliable bulls' flag formation
White High Condition with Reversal / High Condition Both with Reversal Peak overbought with imminent retracement Exit positions/warning

Kernel Regression Envelope with SMI OscillatorThis script combines the predictive capabilities of the **Nadaraya-Watson estimator**, implemented by the esteemed jdehorty (credit to him for his excellent work on the `KernelFunctions` library and the original Nadaraya-Watson Envelope indicator), with the confirmation strength of the **Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI)** to create a dynamic trend reversal strategy. The core idea is to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions using the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and then confirm these signals with the SMI before entering a trade.
**Understanding the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope:**
The Nadaraya-Watson estimator is a non-parametric regression technique that essentially calculates a weighted average of past price data to estimate the current underlying trend. Unlike simple moving averages that give equal weight to all past data within a defined period, the Nadaraya-Watson estimator uses a **kernel function** (in this case, the Rational Quadratic Kernel) to assign weights. The key parameters influencing this estimation are:
* **Lookback Window (h):** This determines how many historical bars are considered for the estimation. A larger window results in a smoother estimation, while a smaller window makes it more reactive to recent price changes.
* **Relative Weighting (alpha):** This parameter controls the influence of different time frames in the estimation. Lower values emphasize longer-term price action, while higher values make the estimator more sensitive to shorter-term movements.
* **Start Regression at Bar (x\_0):** This allows you to exclude the potentially volatile initial bars of a chart from the calculation, leading to a more stable estimation.
The script calculates the Nadaraya-Watson estimation for the closing price (`yhat_close`), as well as the highs (`yhat_high`) and lows (`yhat_low`). The `yhat_close` is then used as the central trend line.
**Dynamic Envelope Bands with ATR:**
To identify potential entry and exit points around the Nadaraya-Watson estimation, the script uses **Average True Range (ATR)** to create dynamic envelope bands. ATR measures the volatility of the price. By multiplying the ATR by different factors (`nearFactor` and `farFactor`), we create multiple bands:
* **Near Bands:** These are closer to the Nadaraya-Watson estimation and are intended to identify potential immediate overbought or oversold zones.
* **Far Bands:** These are further away and can act as potential take-profit or stop-loss levels, representing more extreme price extensions.
The script calculates both near and far upper and lower bands, as well as an average between the near and far bands. This provides a nuanced view of potential support and resistance levels around the estimated trend.
**Confirming Reversals with the Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI):**
While the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope identifies potential overextended conditions, the **Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI)** is used to confirm a potential trend reversal. The SMI, unlike a traditional stochastic oscillator, oscillates around a zero line. It measures the location of the current closing price relative to the median of the high/low range over a specified period.
The script calculates the SMI on a **higher timeframe** (defined by the "Timeframe" input) to gain a broader perspective on the market momentum. This helps to filter out potential whipsaws and false signals that might occur on the current chart's timeframe. The SMI calculation involves:
* **%K Length:** The lookback period for calculating the highest high and lowest low.
* **%D Length:** The period for smoothing the relative range.
* **EMA Length:** The period for smoothing the SMI itself.
The script uses a double EMA for smoothing within the SMI calculation for added smoothness.
**How the Indicators Work Together in the Strategy:**
The strategy enters a long position when:
1. The closing price crosses below the **near lower band** of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope, suggesting a potential oversold condition.
2. The SMI crosses above its EMA, indicating positive momentum.
3. The SMI value is below -50, further supporting the oversold idea on the higher timeframe.
Conversely, the strategy enters a short position when:
1. The closing price crosses above the **near upper band** of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope, suggesting a potential overbought condition.
2. The SMI crosses below its EMA, indicating negative momentum.
3. The SMI value is above 50, further supporting the overbought idea on the higher timeframe.
Trades are closed when the price crosses the **far band** in the opposite direction of the trade. A stop-loss is also implemented based on a fixed value.
**In essence:** The Nadaraya-Watson Envelope identifies areas where the price might be deviating significantly from its estimated trend. The SMI, calculated on a higher timeframe, then acts as a confirmation signal, suggesting that the momentum is shifting in the direction of a potential reversal. The ATR-based bands provide dynamic entry and exit points based on the current volatility.
**How to Use the Script:**
1. **Apply the script to your chart.**
2. **Adjust the "Kernel Settings":**
* **Lookback Window (h):** Experiment with different values to find the smoothness that best suits the asset and timeframe you are trading. Lower values make the envelope more reactive, while higher values make it smoother.
* **Relative Weighting (alpha):** Adjust to control the influence of different timeframes on the Nadaraya-Watson estimation.
* **Start Regression at Bar (x\_0):** Increase this value if you want to exclude the initial, potentially volatile, bars from the calculation.
* **Stoploss:** Set your desired stop-loss value.
3. **Adjust the "SMI" settings:**
* **%K Length, %D Length, EMA Length:** These parameters control the sensitivity and smoothness of the SMI. Experiment to find settings that work well for your trading style.
* **Timeframe:** Select the higher timeframe you want to use for SMI confirmation.
4. **Adjust the "ATR Length" and "Near/Far ATR Factor":** These settings control the width and sensitivity of the envelope bands. Smaller ATR lengths make the bands more reactive to recent volatility.
5. **Customize the "Color Settings"** to your preference.
6. **Observe the plots:**
* The **Nadaraya-Watson Estimation (yhat)** line represents the estimated underlying trend.
* The **near and far upper and lower bands** visualize potential overbought and oversold zones based on the ATR.
* The **fill areas** highlight the regions between the near and far bands.
7. **Look for entry signals:** A long entry is considered when the price touches or crosses below the lower near band and the SMI confirms upward momentum. A short entry is considered when the price touches or crosses above the upper near band and the SMI confirms downward momentum.
8. **Manage your trades:** The script provides exit signals when the price crosses the far band. The fixed stop-loss will also close trades if the price moves against your position.
**Justification for Combining Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and SMI:**
The combination of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and the SMI provides a more robust approach to identifying potential trend reversals compared to using either indicator in isolation. The Nadaraya-Watson Envelope excels at identifying potential areas where the price is overextended relative to its recent history. However, relying solely on the envelope can lead to false signals, especially in choppy or volatile markets. By incorporating the SMI as a confirmation tool, we add a momentum filter that helps to validate the potential reversals signaled by the envelope. The higher timeframe SMI further helps to filter out noise and focus on more significant shifts in momentum. The ATR-based bands add a dynamic element to the entry and exit points, adapting to the current market volatility. This mashup aims to leverage the strengths of each indicator to create a more reliable trading strategy.

Ultimate Multi Indicator - by SachaThe Ultimate Multi Indicator: The Ultimate Guide To Profit
This custom indicator, the Ultimate Multi Indicator , integrates multiple trading indicators to have powerful buy and sell signals. I combined MACD, EMA, RSI, Bollinger Bands, Volume Profile, and Ichimoku Cloud indicators to help traders analyze both short-term and long-term price movements.
Key Components and How to Use Them
- MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
- Use for trend direction and potentiality of reversals.
- The blue line (MACD Line) crossing above the orange line (Signal Line) indicates a bullish reversal; the opposite signals a bearish reversal.
- Watch for crossovers to confirm the direction of smaller price movements.
- 200 EMA (Long) (Exponential Moving Average):
- Use to indicate a long-term trend direction.
- If the price is above the 200 EMA, the market is in an uptrend; below it suggests a downtrend.
- The chart’s background color shifts subtly green (uptrend) or red (downtrend) depending on the EMA's relative position.
- RSI (Relative Strength Index):
- Tracks momentum and overbought/oversold levels.
- RSI over 70 signifies overbought conditions; under 30 indicates oversold.
- Look for RSI turning points around these levels to identify potential reversals.
- Bollinger Bands :
- The price touching or crossing the upper Bollinger Band may mean overbought conditions are filled, while a touch at the lower band indicates oversold.
- Bollinger Band interactions often align with key reversal points, especially when combined with other signals.
- Volume Profile :
- A yellow VP line on the chart represents significant trading volume occurred.
- This line can be used as both a support and resistance level, and especially during consolidations or trend changes.
- Ichimoku Cloud :
- Identifies support/resistance levels and trend direction.
- Green and red cloud regions visually show if the price is above (bullish) or below (bearish) key levels.
- Price above the cloud (green) confirms a bullish market, while below (red) signals bearish.
Signal Conditions and Visualization
- Buy Signals :
- This is triggered right away when MACD crosses up, RSI is oversold, or price touches the lower Bollinger Band, provided price is above both the Ichimoku Cloud and the 200 EMA.
- A green “BUY” label appears below the bar, suggesting a potential entry.
- Sell Signals :
- This signal is generated when MACD crosses down, RSI is overbought, or price touches the upper Bollinger Band, and price is below the Ichimoku Cloud and the 200 EMA.
- A red “SELL” label is shown above the bar, indicating a potential exit.
Tips & Tricks
- Confirm Signals : Use multiple signals to confirm entries and exits. For example, if both the MACD and RSI align with the Ichimoku Cloud direction, the trade setup is stronger.
- Trend Directions : Only take buy signals if the price is above the 200 EMA, and sell signals if it is below, aligning trades with the overall trend.
- Adjust for Volatility : In high-volatility markets, especially in the crypto markets, pay close attention to the Bollinger Bands for breakout potential.
- Ichimoku as a Trend Guide : Use the Ichimoku Cloud as a guide for long-term support and resistance levels, especially for swing trades.
This multi-layered indicator gives a balanced blend of short-term signals and long-term trend insights, making it a versatile tool for day trading, swing trading, or even longer-term analysis.
Remember that indicators that will make you rich instantly don't exist. To expect minimum profit from them, you shouldn't trade all you have at the same time but only trade with the money you can afford to lose.

NVIDIA:
🔵 IDEA
The thinking behind this Half Trend HeikinAshi indicator is pretty straightforward: it’s designed to give you a flexible way to detect trends and trend reversals, but with an added bonus—measuring trend strength via Heikin Ashi candles. The core idea is based on the classic half-trend strategy, where it adjusts to the highest and lowest price values within a certain period. The Heikin Ashi transformation smooths out half-trend line, making it easier to spot solid trends and potential reversals.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
◉ Half Trend Calculation with Reversal Signals:
The main feature here is spotting trends based on a moving average of the close price and the highest/lowest price data.
//#region ———————————————————— Calculations
// Calculate moving average of close prices
series float closeMA = ta.sma(close, amplitude)
// Calculate highest high and lowest low
series float highestHigh = ta.highest(amplitude)
series float lowestLow = ta.lowest(amplitude)
// Initialize hl_t on the first bar
if barstate.isfirst
hl_t := close
// Update hl_t based on conditions
switch
closeMA < hl_t and highestHigh < hl_t => hl_t := highestHigh
closeMA > hl_t and lowestLow > hl_t => hl_t := lowestLow
=> hl_t := hl_t
When the trend flips, you’ll see arrows on your chart—either pointing up or down—marking the exact price where that reversal occurred. This makes it easy to see where the market might turn, which is helpful for timing entries and exits.
◉ Heikin Ashi Candlestick Transformation:
There’s a Heikin Ashi mode that transforms the half-trend line into Heikin Ashi candles.
These smooth out market noise and make the overall trend much clearer.
◉ Trend Strength Calculation:
The indicator doesn’t just stop at showing trends. It also calculates trend strength based on the size of the Heikin Ashi candles. Bigger candles mean stronger trends, and smaller ones indicate weaker momentum. You can see this displayed on the dashboard, so you know exactly how strong the current trend is at any moment.
◉ Graphical Dashboard Display:
You’ve got a small dashboard right on the chart that shows key info like the ticker, timeframe, and whether the trend is up or down. If you’re in Heikin Ashi mode, it shows trend strength instead. So, no need to dig through the data—you can just glance at the dashboard for a quick market read.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Amplitude Input: You can tweak the amplitude to control how sensitive the half-trend line is. A lower setting makes it more reactive to small price moves, while a higher setting smooths it out for longer-term trends.
Heikin Ashi Toggle: You can easily switch between standard half-trend lines and Heikin Ashi candle mode, depending on how you prefer to see the market.
Trend Colors: You’ve got control over the colors for up and down trends, so you can adjust the appearance to fit your charting style.
Signal Labels size: Change Labels signal sizes for your preference
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Half Trend HeikinAshi indicator is a solid tool for tracking trends and measuring their strength. By combining the usual half-trend signals with Heikin Ashi candles, you get a clearer picture of what’s happening in the market. Whether you're looking to spot potential reversals or just want to measure the strength of a current trend, this indicator gives you plenty of flexibility to do both.

AB_Bnf_Selling_5minThe Mathematical Level Reversal Strategy is designed to identify potential reversal points in the market using mathematical levels combined with price action on a 5-minute chart. This strategy is particularly effective for intraday traders who seek to capitalize on precise entry and exit points based on calculated levels rather than traditional indicators like moving averages or Bollinger Bands.
Creators' Mathematical Levels Explanation
Mathematical levels are predetermined price points calculated based on various factors such as previous high/low points, Fibonacci retracements, or other arithmetic calculations. These levels are used to anticipate areas where the price might reverse or experience significant support or resistance.
higher threshold: A predefined level where the price is expected to experience resistance, leading to a potential reversal downward.
Lower Threshold: A predefined level where the price might find support, leading to a potential upward reversal.
In this strategy, we focus on price movements around the upper mathematical level, where prices are likely to reverse downwards.
Strategy Logic
Setup:
The strategy is applied on a 5-minute chart.
Mathematical levels are calculated based on your preferred method, such as Fibonacci levels, pivot points, or custom calculations. For this strategy, let's assume we are using a specific predefined upper level.
Sell Signal Criteria:
A 5-minute candle must cross above the predefined upper mathematical level or close entirely above it (open and close both above the level).
The following candle must break below the low of the candle that crossed the upper level and close below that low. This confirms a bearish reversal.
Once these conditions are met, a sell signal is triggered.
Stop Loss:
The stop loss is placed at the high of the candle that crossed above the upper mathematical level.
This level represents the point where the trade setup would be invalidated.
Take Profit:
Target 1: The first take profit is set at a level that offers a 1:5 risk-to-reward ratio.
Target 2: An alternative take profit level is set at a 1:3 risk-to-reward ratio, providing flexibility based on market conditions.
Trade Management:
Once a trade is initiated, no new trades will be taken until the current trade hits either the stop loss or the first take profit level. This prevents overlapping signals and helps in managing risk effectively.
Originality and Usefulness
This strategy offers a unique approach by using mathematical levels instead of traditional indicators. It provides traders with a clear framework for identifying and executing high-probability reversal trades, particularly in intraday markets.
Originality:
The strategy's originality lies in its reliance on mathematical levels combined with a multi-candle confirmation pattern. This approach reduces the chances of false signals and offers a robust method for identifying potential reversals.
Usefulness:
The strategy is particularly useful for traders who prefer a more quantitative approach, relying on calculated price levels rather than indicators. The clear rules for entry, stop loss, and take profit make it easier to execute consistently.
The inclusion of both 1:5 and 1:3 risk-to-reward targets allows for flexibility depending on market conditions, ensuring that traders can adapt to varying levels of volatility.
Chart Signals and Examples
To demonstrate the effectiveness of this strategy, let's look at a few hypothetical examples on a 5-minute chart:
Example 1: Clear Reversal Signal
The price steadily rises and crosses above the predefined upper mathematical level. The next candle breaks below the low of this candle and closes lower, triggering a sell signal.
A red dotted line is drawn at the stop loss level (the high of the candle that crossed the upper level).
Two green dashed lines are drawn to indicate the first and second take profit levels.
Example 2: No Signal Due to Ongoing Trade
After an initial sell signal is triggered, the price fluctuates but does not hit either the stop loss or the first take profit target. During this period, the strategy refrains from issuing any new signals, adhering to the trade management rule.
Example 3: Trade Reaches Target 1
In another scenario, the price moves sharply in favor of the trade after the signal is triggered. The first take profit level is hit, securing a profit. The trade is then considered closed, and the strategy is ready to issue a new signal when conditions are met.

Standardized MACD Heikin-Ashi TransformedThe Standardized MACD Heikin-Ashi Transformed (St. MACD) is an advanced indicator designed to overcome the limitations of the traditional MACD. It offers a more robust and standardized measure of momentum, making it comparable across different timeframes and securities. By incorporating the Heikin-Ashi transformation, the St. MACD provides a smoother visualization of trends and potential reversals, enhancing its utility for traders seeking a clearer view of the underlying market direction.
Methodology:
The calculation of St. MACD begins with the traditional MACD, which computes the difference between two exponential moving averages (EMAs) of the price. To address the issue of non-comparability across assets, the St. MACD normalizes its values using the exponential average of the price's height. This normalization process ensures that the indicator's readings are not influenced by the absolute price levels, allowing for objective and quantitatively defined comparisons of momentum strength.
Furthermore, St. MACD utilizes the Heikin-Ashi transformation, which involves deriving candles from the price data. These Heikin-Ashi candles provide a smoother representation of trends and help filter out noise in the market. A predictive curve of Heikin-Ashi candles within the St. MACD turns blue or red, indicating the prevailing trend direction. This feature enables traders to easily identify trend shifts and make better informed trading decisions.
Advantages:
St. MACD offers several key advantages over the traditional MACD-
Standardization: By normalizing the indicator's values, St. MACD becomes comparable across different assets and timeframes. This makes it a valuable tool for traders analyzing various markets and seeking consistent momentum measurements.
Heikin-Ashi Transformation: The integration of the Heikin-Ashi transformation smoothes out the indicator's fluctuations and enhances trend visibility. Traders can more easily identify trends and potential reversal points, improving their market analysis.
Quantifiable Momentum: St. MACD's key levels represent the strength of momentum, providing traders with a quantifiable framework to gauge the intensity of market movements. This feature helps identify periods of increased or decreased momentum.
Utility:
The St. MACD indicator offers versatile utility for traders-
Trend Identification: Traders can use the color-coded predictive curve of Heikin-Ashi candles to swiftly determine the prevailing trend direction. This aids in identifying potential entry and exit points in the market.
Reversal Signals: Colored extremes within the St. MACD signal potential price reversals, alerting traders to potential turning points in the market. This assists in making timely decisions during market inflection points.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: The histogram version of St. MACD can be used in conjunction with the bands to detect short-term overbought or oversold market conditions, allowing traders to adjust their strategies accordingly.
In conclusion, this tool addresses the limitations of the traditional MACD by providing a standardized and comparable momentum indicator. Its incorporation of the Heikin-Ashi transformation enhances trend visibility and assists traders in making more informed decisions.

Volume-Weighted RSI with Adaptive SmoothingThis indicator is designed to provide traders with insights into the relative strength of a security by incorporating volume-weighted elements, effectively combining the concepts of Relative Strength Index (RSI) and volume-weighted averages to generate meaningful trading signals.
The indicator calculates the traditional RSI, which measures the speed and change of price movements, as well as the volume-weighted RSI, which considers the influence of trading volume on price action. It then applies adaptive smoothing to the volume-weighted RSI, allowing for customization of the smoothing process. The resulting smoothed volume-weighted RSI is plotted alongside the original RSI, providing traders with a comprehensive view of the price strength dynamics.
The line coloration in this indicator is designed to provide visual cues about the relationship between the RSI and the volume-weighted RSI. When the RSI line is above or equal to the volume-weighted RSI line, it suggests a potentially bullish condition with positive market momentum. In such cases, the line is colored lime. Conversely, when the RSI line (fuchsia) is below the volume-weighted RSI line, it indicates a potentially bearish condition with negative market momentum. The line color is set to fuchsia. By observing the line color, traders can quickly assess the relative strength between the RSI and the volume-weighted RSI, aiding their decision-making process.
The bar color and background color further enhance the visual interpretation of the indicator. The bar color reflects the RSI's relationship with the volume-weighted RSI and the predefined thresholds. If the RSI line is above both the volume-weighted RSI line and the overbought threshold (70), the bar color is set to lime, indicating a potentially overbought condition. Conversely, if the RSI line is below both the volume-weighted RSI line and the oversold threshold (30), the bar color is set to fuchsia, suggesting a potentially oversold condition. When the RSI line is between these two thresholds, the bar color is set to yellow, indicating a neutral or intermediate state. The background color, displayed with a semi-transparent shade, provides additional context by reflecting the prevailing market conditions. It turns lime if the volume-weighted RSI is above the overbought threshold, fuchsia if below the oversold threshold, and yellow if it falls between these two thresholds. This coloration scheme aids traders in quickly assessing market conditions and potential trading opportunities.
Calculations:
-- RSI Calculation : The traditional RSI is calculated based on the price movements of the asset. The up and down movements are determined, and exponential moving averages are used to smooth the values. The RSI value ranges from 0 to 100, with levels above 70 indicating overbought conditions and levels below 30 indicating oversold conditions.
-- Volume-Weighted RSI Calculation : The volume-weighted RSI incorporates the trading volume of the asset into the calculations. The closing price is multiplied by the corresponding volume, and the average is taken over a specific length. The up and down movements are smoothed using exponential moving averages to generate the volume-weighted RSI value.
-- Adaptive Smoothing : The indicator offers an adaptive smoothing option, allowing traders to customize the smoothing process of the volume-weighted RSI. By adjusting the smoothing length, traders can fine-tune the responsiveness of the indicator to changes in market conditions. Smoothing helps reduce noise and enhances the clarity of the signals.
Interpretation:
The indicator provides two main components for interpretation:
-- RSI : The traditional RSI reflects the price momentum and potential overbought or oversold conditions. Traders can look for RSI values above 70 as potential overbought signals, suggesting a possible price reversal or correction. Conversely, RSI values below 30 indicate potential oversold signals, indicating a potential price rebound or rally.
-- Volume-Weighted RSI : The volume-weighted RSI incorporates trading volume, which provides insights into the strength of price movements. When the volume-weighted RSI is above the traditional RSI, it suggests that the buying pressure supported by higher volume is stronger, potentially indicating a more reliable trend. Conversely, when the volume-weighted RSI is below the traditional RSI, it suggests that the selling pressure supported by higher volume is stronger, potentially indicating a more significant price reversal.
Potential Strategies:
-- Overbought and Oversold Signals : Traders can utilize the RSI component of the indicator to identify overbought and oversold conditions. A potential strategy is to consider taking short positions when the RSI is above 70 and long positions when the RSI is below 30. These levels can act as dynamic support and resistance areas, indicating possible price reversals.
-- Confirmation with Volume : Traders can use the volume-weighted RSI as a confirmation tool to validate price movements. When the volume-weighted RSI is above the traditional RSI, it may provide additional confirmation for long positions, suggesting stronger buying pressure. Conversely, when the volume-weighted RSI is below the traditional RSI, it may provide confirmation for short positions, indicating stronger selling pressure.
-- Trend Reversal Strategy : Watch for the volume-weighted RSI to reach extreme levels above 70 (overbought) or below 30 (oversold). Look for a reversal signal where the RSI line (green or fuchsia) crosses below or above the volume-weighted RSI line. Enter a trade when the reversal signal occurs, and the RSI line changes color. Exit the trade when the RSI line crosses back in the opposite direction or reaches the opposite extreme level.
-- Divergence Strategy : Compare the direction of the RSI line (green or fuchsia) with the volume-weighted RSI line. A bullish divergence occurs when the RSI line makes higher lows while the volume-weighted RSI line makes lower lows. A bearish divergence occurs when the RSI line makes lower highs while the volume-weighted RSI line makes higher highs. Once a divergence is identified, wait for the RSI line to cross above or below the volume-weighted RSI line as confirmation of a potential trend reversal. Consider using additional indicators or price action analysis to time the entry more accurately. Use stop-loss orders and profit targets to manage risk and secure profits.
-- Trend Continuation Strategy : Assess the overall trend direction by observing the RSI line's position relative to the volume-weighted RSI line. When the RSI line consistently stays above the volume-weighted RSI line, it indicates a bullish trend, while the opposite suggests a bearish trend. Look for temporary pullbacks within the ongoing trend where the RSI line (green or fuchsia) touches or crosses the volume-weighted RSI line. Enter trades in the direction of the dominant trend when the RSI line crosses back in the trend direction. Exit the trade when the RSI line starts to deviate significantly from the volume-weighted RSI line or when the trend shows signs of weakening through other technical or fundamental factors.
Limitations:
-- False Signals : Like any indicator, the "Volume-Weighted RSI with Adaptive Smoothing" may produce false signals, especially during periods of low liquidity or choppy market conditions. Traders should exercise caution and consider using additional confirmation indicators or tools to validate the signals generated by this indicator.
-- Lagging Nature : The indicator relies on historical price data and volume to calculate the RSI and volume-weighted RSI. As a result, the signals provided may have a certain degree of lag compared to real-time price action. Traders should be aware of this inherent lag and consider combining the indicator with other timely indicators to enhance the accuracy of their trading decisions.
-- Parameter Sensitivity : The indicator's effectiveness can be influenced by the choice of parameters, such as the length of the RSI, smoothing length, and adaptive smoothing option. Different market conditions may require adjustments to these parameters to optimize performance. Traders are encouraged to conduct thorough testing and analysis to determine the most suitable parameter values for their specific trading strategies and preferences.
-- Market Conditions : The indicator's performance may vary depending on the prevailing market conditions. It is essential to understand that no indicator can guarantee accurate predictions or consistently profitable trades. Traders should consider the broader market context, fundamental factors, and other technical indicators to complement the insights provided by the "Volume-Weighted RSI with Adaptive Smoothing" indicator.
-- Subjectivity : Interpretation of the indicator's signals involves subjective judgment. Traders may have varying interpretations of overbought and oversold levels, as well as the significance of the volume-weighted RSI in relation to the traditional RSI. It is crucial to combine the indicator with personal analysis and trading experience to make informed trading decisions.
Remember, no single indicator can provide foolproof trading signals. The "Volume-Weighted RSI with Adaptive Smoothing" indicator serves as a valuable tool for analyzing price strength and volume dynamics. It can assist traders in identifying potential entry and exit points, validating trends, and managing risk. However, it should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy that considers multiple factors and indicators to increase the likelihood of successful trades.
Stochastic Chebyshev Smoothed With Zero Lag SmoothingFast and Smooth Stochastic Oscillator with Zero Lag
Introduction
In this post, we will discuss a custom implementation of a Stochastic Oscillator that not only smooths the signal but also does so without introducing any noticeable lag. This is a remarkable achievement, as it allows for a fast Stochastic Oscillator that is less prone to false signals without being slow and sluggish.
We will go through the code step by step, explaining the various functions and the overall structure of the code.
First, let's start with a brief overview of the Stochastic Oscillator and the problem it addresses.
Background
The Stochastic Oscillator is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis to determine potential overbought or oversold conditions in an asset's price. It compares the closing price of an asset to its price range over a specified period. However, the Stochastic Oscillator is susceptible to false signals due to its sensitivity to price movements. This is where our custom implementation comes in, offering a smoother signal without noticeable lag, thus reducing the number of false signals.
Despite its popularity and widespread use in technical analysis, the Stochastic Oscillator has its share of drawbacks. While it is a price scaler that allows for easier comparisons across different assets and timeframes, it is also known for generating false signals, which can lead to poor trading decisions. In this section, we will delve deeper into the limitations of the Stochastic Oscillator and discuss the challenges associated with smoothing to mitigate its drawbacks.
Limitations of the Stochastic Oscillator
False Signals: The primary issue with the Stochastic Oscillator is its tendency to produce false signals. Since it is a momentum indicator, it reacts to short-term price movements, which can lead to frequent overbought and oversold signals that do not necessarily indicate a trend reversal. This can result in traders entering or exiting positions prematurely, incurring losses or missing out on potential gains.
Sensitivity to Market Noise: The Stochastic Oscillator is highly sensitive to market noise, which can create erratic signals in volatile markets. This sensitivity can make it difficult for traders to discern between genuine trend reversals and temporary fluctuations.
Lack of Predictive Power: Although the Stochastic Oscillator can help identify potential overbought and oversold conditions, it does not provide any information about the future direction or strength of a trend. As a result, it is often used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to improve its predictive power.
Challenges of Smoothing the Stochastic Oscillator
To address the limitations of the Stochastic Oscillator, many traders attempt to smooth the indicator by applying various techniques. However, these approaches are not without their own set of challenges:
Trade-off between Smoothing and Responsiveness: The process of smoothing the Stochastic Oscillator inherently involves reducing its sensitivity to price movements. While this can help eliminate false signals, it can also result in a less responsive indicator, which may not react quickly enough to genuine trend reversals. This trade-off can make it challenging to find the optimal balance between smoothing and responsiveness.
Increased Complexity: Smoothing techniques often involve the use of additional mathematical functions and algorithms, which can increase the complexity of the indicator. This can make it more difficult for traders to understand and interpret the signals generated by the smoothed Stochastic Oscillator.
Lagging Signals: Some smoothing methods, such as moving averages, can introduce a time lag into the Stochastic Oscillator's signals. This can result in late entry or exit points, potentially reducing the profitability of a trading strategy based on the smoothed indicator.
Overfitting: In an attempt to eliminate false signals, traders may over-optimize their smoothing parameters, resulting in a Stochastic Oscillator that is overfitted to historical data. This can lead to poor performance in real-time trading, as the overfitted indicator may not accurately reflect the dynamics of the current market.
In our custom implementation of the Stochastic Oscillator, we used a combination of Chebyshev Type I Moving Average and zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average filters to address the indicator's limitations while preserving its responsiveness. In this section, we will discuss the reasons behind selecting these specific filters and the advantages of using the Chebyshev filter for our purpose.
Filter Selection
Chebyshev Type I Moving Average: The Chebyshev filter was chosen for its ability to provide a smoother signal without sacrificing much responsiveness. This filter is designed to minimize the maximum error between the original and the filtered signal within a specific frequency range, effectively reducing noise while preserving the overall shape of the signal. The Chebyshev Type I Moving Average achieves this by allowing a specified amount of ripple in the passband, resulting in a more aggressive filter roll-off and better noise reduction compared to other filters, such as the Butterworth filter.
Zero-lag Gaussian-weighted Moving Average: To further improve the Stochastic Oscillator's performance without introducing noticeable lag, we used the zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average (GWMA) filter. This filter combines the benefits of a Gaussian-weighted moving average, which prioritizes recent data points by assigning them higher weights, with a zero-lag approach that minimizes the time delay in the filtered signal. The result is a smoother signal that is less prone to false signals and is more responsive than traditional moving average filters.
Advantages of the Chebyshev Filter
Effective Noise Reduction: The primary advantage of the Chebyshev filter is its ability to effectively reduce noise in the Stochastic Oscillator signal. By minimizing the maximum error within a specified frequency range, the Chebyshev filter suppresses short-term fluctuations that can lead to false signals while preserving the overall trend.
Customizable Ripple Factor: The Chebyshev Type I Moving Average allows for a customizable ripple factor, enabling traders to fine-tune the filter's aggressiveness in reducing noise. This flexibility allows for better adaptability to different market conditions and trading styles.
Responsiveness: Despite its effective noise reduction, the Chebyshev filter remains relatively responsive compared to other smoothing filters. This responsiveness allows for more accurate detection of genuine trend reversals, making it a suitable choice for our custom Stochastic Oscillator implementation.
Compatibility with Zero-lag Techniques: The Chebyshev filter can be effectively combined with zero-lag techniques, such as the Gaussian-weighted moving average filter used in our custom implementation. This combination results in a Stochastic Oscillator that is both smooth and responsive, with minimal lag.
Code Overview
The code begins with defining custom mathematical functions for hyperbolic sine, cosine, and their inverse functions. These functions will be used later in the code for smoothing purposes.
Next, the gaussian_weight function is defined, which calculates the Gaussian weight for a given 'k' and 'smooth_per'. The zero_lag_gwma function calculates the zero-lag moving average with Gaussian weights. This function is used to create a Gaussian-weighted moving average with minimal lag.
The chebyshevI function is an implementation of the Chebyshev Type I Moving Average, which is used for smoothing the Stochastic Oscillator. This function takes the source value (src), length of the moving average (len), and the ripple factor (ripple) as input parameters.
The main part of the code starts by defining input parameters for K and D smoothing and ripple values. The Stochastic Oscillator is calculated using the ta.stoch function with Chebyshev smoothed inputs for close, high, and low. The result is further smoothed using the zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average function (zero_lag_gwma).
Finally, the lag variable is calculated using the Chebyshev Type I Moving Average for the Stochastic Oscillator. The Stochastic Oscillator and the lag variable are plotted on the chart, along with upper and lower bands at 80 and 20 levels, respectively. A fill is added between the upper and lower bands for better visualization.
Conclusion
The custom Stochastic Oscillator presented in this blog post combines the Chebyshev Type I Moving Average and zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average filters to provide a smooth and responsive signal without introducing noticeable lag. This innovative implementation results in a fast Stochastic Oscillator that is less prone to false signals, making it a valuable tool for technical analysts and traders alike.
However, it is crucial to recognize that the Stochastic Oscillator, despite being a price scaler, has its limitations, primarily due to its propensity for generating false signals. While smoothing techniques, like the ones used in our custom implementation, can help mitigate these issues, they often introduce new challenges, such as reduced responsiveness, increased complexity, lagging signals, and the risk of overfitting.
The selection of the Chebyshev Type I Moving Average and zero-lag Gaussian-weighted moving average filters was driven by their combined ability to provide a smooth and responsive signal while minimizing false signals. The advantages of the Chebyshev filter, such as effective noise reduction, customizable ripple factor, and responsiveness, make it an excellent fit for addressing the limitations of the Stochastic Oscillator.
When using the Stochastic Oscillator, traders should be aware of these limitations and challenges, and consider incorporating other technical analysis tools and techniques to supplement the indicator's signals. This can help improve the overall accuracy and effectiveness of their trading strategies, reducing the risk of losses due to false signals and other limitations associated with the Stochastic Oscillator.
