Dominant Cycle Tuned RsiIntroduction
Adaptive technical indicators are importants in a non stationary market, the ability to adapt to a situation can boost the efficiency of your strategy. A lot of methods have been proposed to make technical indicators "smarters" , from the use of variable smoothing constant for exponential smoothing to artificial intelligence.
The dominant cycle tuned rsi depend on the dominant cycle period of the market, such method allow the rsi to return accurate peaks and valleys levels. This indicator is an estimation of the cycle finder tuned rsi proposed by Lars von Thienen published in Decoding the Hidden Market Rhythm/Fine-tuning technical indicators using the dominant market vibration/2010 using the cycle measurement method described by John F.Ehlers in Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures .
The following section is for information purpose only, it can be technical so you can skip directly to the The Indicator section.
Frequency Estimation and Maximum Entropy Spectral Analysis
“Looks like rain,” said Tom precipitously.
Tom would have been a great weather forecaster, but market patterns are more complex than weather ones. The ability to measure dominant cycles in a complex signal is hard, also a method able to estimate it really fast add even more challenge to the task. First lets talk about the term dominant cycle , signals can be decomposed in a sum of various sine waves of different frequencies and amplitudes, the dominant cycle is considered to be the frequency of the sine wave with the highest amplitude. In general the highest frequencies are those who form the trend (often called fundamentals) , so detrending is used to eliminate those frequencies in order to keep only mid/mid - highs ones.
A lot of methods have been introduced but not that many target market price, Lars von Thienen proposed a method relying on the following processing chain :
Lars von Thienen Method = Input -> Filtering and Detrending -> Discrete Fourier Transform of the result -> Selection using Bartels statistical test -> Output
Thienen said that his method is better than the one proposed by Elhers. The method from Elhers called MESA was originally developed to interpret seismographic information. This method in short involve the estimation of the phase using low amount of information which divided by 360 return the frequency. At first sight there are no relations with the Maximum entropy spectral estimation proposed by Burg J.P. (1967). Maximum Entropy Spectral Analysis. Proceedings of 37th Meeting, Society of Exploration Geophysics, Oklahoma City.
You may also notice that these methods are plotted in the time domain where more classic method such as : power spectrum, spectrogram or FFT are not. The method from Elhers is the one used to tune our rsi.
The Indicator
Our indicator use the dominant cycle frequency to calculate the period of the rsi thus producing an adaptive rsi . When our adaptive rsi cross under 70, price might start a downtrend, else when our adaptive rsi crossover 30, price might start an uptrend. The alpha parameter is a parameter set to be always lower than 1 and greater than 0. Lower values of alpha minimize the number of detected peaks/valleys while higher ones increase the number of those. 0.07 for alpha seems like a great parameter but it can sometimes need to be changed.
The adaptive indicator can also detect small top/bottoms of small periods
Of course the indicator is subject to failures
At the end it is totally dependent of the dominant cycle estimation, which is still a rough method subject to uncertainty.
Conclusion
Tuning your indicator is a great way to make it adapt to the market, but its also a complex way to do so and i'm not that convinced about the complexity/result ratio. The version using chart background will be published separately.
Feel free to tune your indicators with the estimator from elhers and see if it provide a great enhancement :)
Thanks for reading !

Ehlers Simple DecyclerThis indicator was originally developed by John F. Ehlers (Stocks & Commodities, V.33:10 (September, 2015): "Decyclers").
Mr. Ehlers suggested a way to improve trend identification using high-pass filters. The basic smoothers like SMA, low-pass filters, have considerable lag in their display. Mr. Ehlers applied the high-pass filter and subtracted the high-pass filter output from the time series input. Doing these steps he removed high-frequency short-wavelength components (the ones causing the wiggles) from the time series.
As a result he got a special series of the low-frequency components with virtually no lag - the Decycler.
The Decycler is plotted with two additional lines (the percent-shifts of Decycler) and together they form a hysteresis band.
If the prices are above the upper hysteresis line, then the market is in an uptrend . If the prices are below the low hysteresis line, then the market is in a downtrend . Prices within the hysteresis band are trend-neutral .
Simple TrenderOriginates from:
I was reading some Impulse Trading literature by A. Elder.. In it, someone named Kerry Lovvorn proposed "An End of Day Trend Following System" for someone lazy.
Originally it is just price closing above an 8 ema (low) for long. Exit when price closes below an 8 ema (low). The opposite for a short position.
Conditions: Buy when price closed below ema (low) for two bars or more, then closes above. Opposite for a short position. I do not follow this condition. Though it may help with whipsaw.
My condition is when price closes above the 26 ema (low) (works the best for me) I place orders above the initial crossing bars high. Opposite for lows.
I look for stocks that are low in price to go long on. I want the run from 2's to 15's
I look for stocks that are mid-teens/20's in price to go short on. I want the run from 20's to 2's
I look for stock with news and earnings that are already running (up or down) to play the pullback.
These conditions can easily be scanned for on thinkorswim
From first glance, the system looks like CMsling shotsystem. Although, I plagiarized some parts of the codes, because I am inept when it comes to that shit, it differs as it is not a moving average crossover system.
It is a price crossing over concept. A moving average VWAP is used for best entries on pullbacks.
Purpose:
--To catch the majority of a trend/wave/run.
--To identify pullback areas to go long or short while in midst of trend. To catch pullbacks off news and earning runners.
--To catch the initial start of trend with clear rules to enter
--Clear rules to exit
Issues
--possibilities of getting ninja sliced the fuck up. Can be mitigated by entering stocks with decent average volume. And also only going long above 200 ema and short below it. ADX won't work, at the initial start of the trend it will show not trending. Can look at blow off volume at the bottom followed by increase in buying for long and vice versa for short.
--Can give some huge gains away through gap ups or gap downs from news or earnings during trend. However, can get huge gain on gaps from news or earning. Nature of the game.
--Need some brass balls and a supply of pepto to stomach through some of the pullbacks. Gut wrenching seeing big gains dwindle. But they all even out at the end, you hope. (see NBEV and IGC, and CRON and others. shit don't go in straight lines, homie)
Pros
--It's simple and easy. Overall, you profit
--works with any security
Cons
--It can be stressful.
--does not work well on lower time frames. Do not recommend going below 15 minutes
--Possibility of working on 5 minutes with a time frame breakout strategy (15,30 min).
Couple it with LazyBear "Weis Wave Volume" indicator. Works well for pullback entries.
Enjoy. Ride some waves.
Godmode RSIbased on the popular Godmode Indicator with modifications by LEGION, LAZYBEAR, Ni6HTH4wK, xSilas, oh92, sco77m4r7in
All Credit belongs to them. THX Guys!
This is a Combination of a RSI and Godmode.
RSI has a Simple or Exponential Moving Average, Histogram Color Changes when the RSI reaches the Overbought/Oversold Zones.
Godmode is basicly the same as the Original one only scaled down a bit with slightly adjusted Caution Signal Zones which i like more. I also added the Option to adjust the Length of the 2nd Wavetrend SMA. Removed the Wavetrend Area because it doesnt have any use for me.
Hope you like it.
BE-EMA(12,26) (Blue Empire Exponential Moving Average)
Simple EMA where you get a CROSS mark between EMA 12 and EMA 26.
Each time a cross happens, a spot gets created.
If it's cyan, it goes up.
If it's magenta, it goes down.
I'm studying Trading at Blue Empire Academy, if you want to know more send me a PM.
Wave Analysis study the wave's behavior and tries to predict by using trendlines, elliot waves, fibonacci retracements, and EMAs basically.
In this Indicator, It's a confirmation when EMA 12 goes over to confirm the price may go up. and Vice versa.
Hope you like, please share if you think it's useful and comment if you think this can be better.
Thank you again for reading
>> This is just an indicator, it doesn't predict the future. Use it at your own risk. <<
##########
All the credits to @tracks, a genius who helped me polish the code. :] thank you.
Periodic ChannelThis indicator try to create a channel by summing a re-scaled and readapted sinusoidal wave form to the price mean.
The length parameter control the speed of the sinusoidal wave form, this parameter is not converted to a sine wave period for allowing a better estimation, higher length's work better but feel free to try shorter periods.
The invert parameter invert the sinusoidal wave.
Each bands represent possible return points, the higher the band the higher the probability.
Inverted sin wave exemple
The performance of the indicator is subjective to the main estimation (blue line), select the parameter that best fit the blue line to the price.

rem sim v0.1every alt-coin has similarity.
cause of bitcoin.
always i want to delete that similarity and read the true(?) value of each coin.
and i made some script for that, but not good enough.
this one is different.
Rem Sim (rs) removes the similarity very effectively.
it make avg WaveTrend from nxt, strat, steem, ...
and that is the similarity
and it show true(?) WaveTrend without similarity.
so if the alt-coin move like other alt-coin, the WT almost 0.
sorry my bad english.
if you dont understand my english. just look at that chart.
also you can see source code.

Quantum State Superposition Indicator (QSSI)Quantum State Superposition Indicator (QSSI) - Where Physics Meets Finance
The Quantum Revolution in Market Analysis
After months of research into quantum mechanics and its applications to financial markets, I'm thrilled to present the Quantum State Superposition Indicator (QSSI) - a groundbreaking approach that models price action through the lens of quantum physics. This isn't just another technical indicator; it's a paradigm shift in how we understand market behavior.
The Theoretical Foundation
Quantum Superposition in Markets
In quantum mechanics, particles exist in multiple states simultaneously until observed. Similarly, markets exist in a superposition of potential states (bullish, bearish, neutral) until a significant volume event "collapses" the wave function into a definitive direction.
The mathematical framework:
Wave Function (Ψ): Represents the market's quantum state as a weighted sum of all possible states:
Ψ = Σ(αᵢ × Sᵢ)
Where αᵢ are probability amplitudes and Sᵢ are individual quantum states.
Probability Amplitudes: Calculated using the Born rule, normalized so Σ|αᵢ|² = 1
Observation Operator: Volume/Average Volume ratio determines observation strength
The Five Quantum States
Momentum State: Short-term price velocity (EMA of returns)
Mean Reversion State: Deviation from equilibrium (normalized z-score)
Volatility Expansion State: ATR relative to historical average
Trend Continuation State: Long-term price positioning
Chaos State: Volatility of volatility (market uncertainty)
Each state contributes to the overall wave function based on current market conditions.
Wave Function Collapse
When volume exceeds the observation threshold (default 1.5x average), the wave function "collapses," committing the market to a direction. This models how institutional volume forces markets out of uncertainty into trending states.
Collapse Detection Formula:
Collapse = Volume > (Threshold × Average Volume)
Direction = Sign(Ψ) at collapse moment
Advanced Quantum Concepts
Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle
The indicator calculates market uncertainty as the product of price and momentum
uncertainties:
ΔP × ΔM = ℏ (market uncertainty constant)
This manifests as dynamic uncertainty bands that widen during unstable periods.
Quantum Tunneling
Calculates the probability of price "tunneling" through resistance/support barriers:
P(tunnel) = e^(-2×|barrier_height|×√coherence_length)
Unlike classical technical analysis, this gives probability of breakouts before they occur.
Entanglement
Measures the quantum correlation between price and volume:
Entanglement = |Correlation(Price, Volume, lookback)|
High entanglement suggests coordinated institutional activity.
Decoherence
When market states lose quantum properties and behave classically:
Decoherence = 1 - Σ(amplitude²)
Indicates trend emergence from quantum uncertainty.
Visual Innovation
Probability Clouds
Three-tier probability distributions visualize market uncertainty:
Inner Cloud (68%): One standard deviation - most likely price range
Middle Cloud (95%): Two standard deviations - probable extremes
Outer Cloud (99.7%): Three standard deviations - tail risk zones
Cloud width directly represents market uncertainty - wider clouds signal higher entropy states.
Quantum State Visualization
Colored dots represent individual quantum states:
Green: Momentum state strength
Red: Mean reversion state strength
Yellow: Volatility state strength
Dot brightness indicates amplitude (influence) of each state.
Collapse Events
Aqua Diamonds (Above): Bullish collapse - upward commitment
Pink Diamonds (Below): Bearish collapse - downward commitment
These mark precise moments when markets exit superposition.
Implementation Details
Core Calculations
Feature Extraction: Normalize price returns, volume ratios, and volatility measures
State Calculation: Compute each quantum state's value
Amplitude Assignment: Weight states by market conditions and observation strength
Wave Function: Sum weighted states for final market quantum state
Visualization: Transform quantum values to price space for display

Development Journey
Creating QSSI required:
- Deep study of quantum mechanics principles
- Translation of physics equations to market context
- Extensive backtesting across multiple markets
- UI/UX optimization for trader accessibility
- Performance optimization for real-time calculation
- The result bridges cutting-edge physics with practical trading.
Best Practices
Parameter Optimization

Perfect for traders seeking deeper market understanding.
Disclaimer
This indicator is for educational and research purposes only. While quantum mechanics provides a fascinating framework for market analysis, no indicator can predict future prices with certainty. The probabilistic nature of both quantum mechanics and markets means outcomes are inherently uncertain.
Always use proper risk management, conduct thorough analysis, and never risk more than you can afford to lose. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Conclusion
The Quantum State Superposition Indicator represents a revolutionary approach to market analysis, bringing institutional-grade quantum modeling to retail traders. By viewing markets through the lens of quantum mechanics, we gain unique insights into uncertainty, probability, and state transitions that classical indicators miss.
Whether you're a physicist interested in finance or a trader seeking cutting-edge tools, QSSI opens new dimensions in market analysis.
"The market, like Schrödinger's cat, exists in multiple states until observed through volume."
* As you may have noticed, the past two indicators I've released (Lorentzian Classification and Quantum State Superposition) are designed with strategy implementation in mind. I'm currently developing a stable execution platform that's completely unique and moves away from traditional ATR-based position sizing and stop loss systems. I've found ATR-based approaches to be unreliable in volatile markets and regime transitions - they often lag behind actual market conditions and can lead to premature exits or oversized positions during volatility spikes.
The goal is to create something that adapts to market conditions in real-time using the quantum and relativistic principles we've been exploring. Hopefully I'll have something groundbreaking to share soon. Stay tuned!
Trade with quantum insight. Trade with QSSI .

Macd, Wt Cross & HVPMacd Wt Cross & HVP – Advanced Multi-Signal Indicator
This script is a custom-designed multi-signal indicator that brings together three proven concepts to provide a complete view of market momentum, reversals, and volatility build-ups. It is built for traders who want to anticipate key market moves, not just react to them.
Why This Combination ?
While each tool has its strengths, their combined use creates powerful signal confluence.
Instead of juggling multiple indicators separately, this script synchronizes three key perspectives into a single, intuitive display—helping you trade with greater clarity and confidence.
1. MACD Histogram – Momentum and Trend Clarity
At the core of the indicator is the MACD histogram, calculated as the difference between two exponential moving averages (EMAs).
Color-coded bars represent momentum direction and intensity:
Green / blue bars: bullish momentum
Red / pink bars: bearish momentum
Color intensity shows acceleration or weakening of trend.
This visual makes it easy to detect trend shifts and momentum divergence at a glance.
2. WT Cross Signals – Early Reversal Detection
Overlaid on the histogram are green and red dots, based on the logic of the WaveTrend oscillator cross:
Green dots = potential bullish cross (buy signal)
Red dots = potential bearish cross (sell signal)
These signals are helpful for identifying reversal points during both trending and ranging phases.
3. Historical Volatility Percentile (HVP) – Volatility Compression Zones
Behind the histogram, purple vertical zones highlight periods of low historical volatility, based on the HVP:
When volatility compresses below a specific threshold, these zones appear.
Such periods are often followed by explosive price moves, making them prime areas for pre-breakout positioning.
By integrating HVP, the script doesn’t just tell you where the trend is—it tells you when the trend is likely to erupt.
How to Use This Script
Use the MACD histogram to confirm the dominant trend and its strength.
Watch for WT Cross dots as potential entry/exit signals in alignment or divergence with the MACD.
Monitor HVP purple zones as warnings of incoming volatility expansions—ideal moments to prepare for breakout trades.
Best results occur when all three elements align, offering a high-probability trade setup.
What Makes This Script Original?
Unlike many mashups, this script was not created by simply merging indicators. Each component was carefully integrated to serve a specific, complementary purpose:
MACD detects directional bias
WT Cross adds precision timing
HVP anticipates volatility-based breakout timing
This results in a strategic tool for traders, useful on multiple timeframes and adaptable to different trading styles (trend-following, breakout, swing).
WaveFunction MACD (TechnoBlooms)WaveFunction MACD — The Next Generation of Market Momentum
WaveFunction MACD is an advanced hybrid momentum indicator that merges:
• The classical MACD crossover logic (based on moving averages)
• Wave physics (modeled through phase energy and cosine functions)
• Hilbert Transform theory from signal processing
• The concept of a wavefunction from quantum mechanics, where price action is seen as a probabilistic energy wave—not just a trend.
✨ Key Features of WaveFunction MACD
• Wave Energy Logic : Instead of using just price and MA differences, this indicator computes phase-corrected momentum using the cosine of the wave phase angle — revealing the true energy behind market moves.
• Phase-Based Trend Detection : It reads cycle phases using Hilbert Transform-like logic, allowing you to spot momentum before it becomes visible in price.
• Ultra-Smooth Flow : The main line and histogram are built to follow price flow smoothly — eliminating much of the noise found in traditional MACD indicators.
• Signal Amplification via Energy Histogram : The histogram doesn’t just show momentum changes — it shows the intensity of wave energy, allowing you to confirm the strength of the trend.
• Physics-Driven Structure : The algorithm is rooted in real-world wave mechanics, bringing a scientific edge to trading — ideal for traders who believe in natural models like cycles and harmonics.
• Trend Confirmation & Early Reversals : It can confirm strong trends and also catch subtle shifts that often precede big reversals — giving you both reliability and anticipation.
• Ready for Fusion : Designed to work seamlessly with liquidity zones, price action, order blocks, and structure trading — a perfect fit for modern trading systems.
🧪 The Science Behind It
This tool blends:
• Hilbert Transform: Measures the phase of a waveform (price cycle) to detect turning points
• Cosine Phase Energy: Calculates true wave energy using the cosine of the phase angle, revealing the strength behind price movements
• Quantum Modeling: Views price like a wavefunction, offering predictive insight based on phase dynamics
Multi-Factor Reversal AnalyzerMulti-Factor Reversal Analyzer – Quantitative Reversal Signal System
OVERVIEW
Multi-Factor Reversal Analyzer is a comprehensive technical analysis toolkit designed to detect market tops and bottoms with high precision. It combines trend momentum analysis, price action behavior, wave oscillation structure, and volatility breakout potential into one unified indicator.
This indicator is not a random mix of tools — each module is carefully selected for a specific purpose. When combined, they form a multi-dimensional view of the market, merging trend analysis, momentum divergence, and volatility compression to produce high-confidence signals.
Why Combine These Modules?
Module Combination Ideas & How to Use Them
Factor A: Trend Detector + Gold Zone
Concept:
• The Trend Detector (light yellow histogram) evaluates market strength:
• Histogram trending downward or staying below 50 → bearish conditions;
• Trending upward or staying above 50 → bullish conditions.
• The Gold Zone identifies areas of volatility compression — typically a prelude to explosive market moves.
Practical Application:
• When the Gold Zone appears and the Trend Detector is bearish → likely downside move;
• When the Gold Zone appears and the Trend Detector is bullish → likely upside breakout.
• Note: The Gold Zone does not mean the bottom is in. It is not a buy signal on its own — always combine it with other modules for directional bias.
Factor B: PAI + Wave Trend
Concept:
• PAI (Price Action Index) is a custom oscillator that combines price momentum with volatility dispersion, displaying strength zones:
• Green area → bullish dominance;
• Red area → bearish pressure.
• Wave Trend offers smoothed crossover signals via the main and signal lines.
Practical Application:
• When PAI is in the green zone and Wave Trend makes a bullish crossover → potential reversal to the upside;
• When PAI is in the red zone and Wave Trend shows a bearish crossover → potential start of a downtrend.
Factor C: Trend Detector + PAI
Concept:
• Combines directional trend strength with price action strength to confirm setups via confluence.
Practical Application:
• Trend Detector histogram bottoms out + PAI enters the green zone → high chance of upward reversal;
• Histogram tops out + PAI in the red zone → increased likelihood of downside continuation.
Multi-Factor Confluence (Advanced Use)
• When Trend Detector, PAI, and Wave Trend all align in the same direction (bullish or bearish), the directional signal becomes significantly more reliable.
• This setup is especially useful for trend-following or swing trade entries.
KEY FEATURES
1. Multi-Layer Reversal Logic
• Combines trend scoring, oscillator divergence, and volatility squeezes for triangulated reversal detection.
• Helps traders distinguish between trend pullbacks and true reversals.
2. Advanced Divergence Detection
• Detects both regular and hidden divergences using pivot-based confirmation logic.
• Customizable lookback ranges and pivot sensitivity provide flexible tuning for different market styles.
3. Gold Zone Volatility Compression
• Highlights pre-breakout zones using custom oscillation models (RSI, harmonic, Karobein, etc.).
• Improves anticipation of breakout opportunities following low-volatility compressions.
4. Trend Direction Context
• PAI and Trend Score components provide top-down insight into prevailing bias.
• Built-in “Straddle Area” highlights consolidation zones; breakouts from this area often signal new trend phases.
5. Flexible Visualization
• Color-coded trend bars, reversal markers, normalized oscillator plots, and trend strength labels.
• Designed for both visual discretionary traders and data-driven system developers.
USAGE GUIDELINES
1. Applicable Markets
• Suitable for stocks, crypto, futures, and forex
• Supports reversal, mean-reversion, and breakout trading styles
2. Recommended Timeframes
• Short-term traders: 5m / 15m / 1H — use Wave Trend divergence + Gold Zone
• Swing traders: 4H / Daily — rely on Price Action Index and Trend Detector
• Macro trend context: use PAI HTF mode for higher timeframe overlays
3. Reversal Strategy Flow
• Watch for divergence (WT/PAI) + Gold Zone compression
• Confirm with Trend Score weakening or flipping
• Use Straddle Area breakout for final trigger
• Optional: enable bar coloring or labels for visual reinforcement
• The indicator performs optimally when used in conjunction with a harmonic pattern recognition tool
4. Additional Note on the Gold Zone
The “Gold Zone” does not directly indicate a market bottom. Since it is displayed at the bottom of the chart, it may be misunderstood as a bullish signal. In reality, the Gold Zone represents a compression of price momentum and volatility, suggesting that a significant directional move is about to occur. The direction of that move—upward or downward—should be determined by analyzing the histogram:
• If histogram momentum is weakening, the Gold Zone may precede a downward move.
• If histogram momentum is strengthening, it may signal an upcoming rebound or rally.
Treat the Gold Zone as a warning of impending volatility, and always combine it with trend indicators for accurate directional judgment.
RISK DISCLAIMER
• This indicator calculates trend direction based on historical data and cannot guarantee future market performance. When using this indicator for trading, always combine it with other technical analysis tools, fundamental analysis, and personal trading experience for comprehensive decision-making.
• Market conditions are uncertain, and trend signals may result in false positives or lag. Traders should avoid over-reliance on indicator signals and implement stop-loss strategies and risk management techniques to reduce potential losses.
• Leverage trading carries high risks and may result in rapid capital loss. If using this indicator in leveraged markets (such as futures, forex, or cryptocurrency derivatives), exercise caution, manage risks properly, and set reasonable stop-loss/take-profit levels to protect funds.
• All trading decisions are the sole responsibility of the trader. The developer is not liable for any trading losses. This indicator is for technical analysis reference only and does not constitute investment advice.
• Before live trading, it is recommended to use a demo account for testing to fully understand how to use the indicator and apply proper risk management strategies.

TrendWave Bands [BigBeluga]This is a trend-following indicator that dynamically adapts to market trends using upper and lower bands. It visually highlights trend strength and duration through color intensity while providing additional wave bands for deeper trend analysis.
🔵Key Features:
Adaptive Trend Bands:
➣ Displays a lower band in uptrends and an upper band in downtrends to indicate trend direction.
➣ The bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, helping traders identify potential entry and exit points.
Wave Bands for Additional Analysis:
➣ A dashed wave band appears opposite the main trend band for deeper trend confirmation.
➣ In an uptrend, the upper dashed wave band helps analyze momentum, while in a downtrend, the lower dashed wave band serves the same purpose.
Gradient Color Intensity:
➣ The trend bands have a color gradient that fades as the trend continues, helping traders visualize trend duration.
➣ The wave bands have an inverse gradient effect—starting with low intensity at the trend's beginning and increasing in intensity as the trend progresses.
Trend Change Signals:
➣ Circular markers appear at trend reversals, providing clear entry and exit points.
➣ These signals mark transitions between bullish and bearish phases based on price action.
🔵Usage:
Trend Following: Use the lower band for confirmation in uptrends and the upper band in downtrends to stay on the right side of the market.
Trend Duration Analysis: Gradient wavebands give an idea of the duration of the current trend — new trends will have high-intensity colored wavebands and as time goes on, trends will fade.
Trend Reversal Detection: Circular markers highlight trend shifts, making it easier to spot entry and exit opportunities.
Volatility Awareness: Volatility-based bands help traders adjust their strategies based on market volatility, ensuring better risk management.
TrendWave Bands is a powerful tool for traders seeking to follow market trends with enhanced visual clarity. By combining trend bands, wave bands, and gradient-based color scaling, it provides a detailed view of market dynamics and trend evolution.
Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy [LazyBear + PineIndicators]The Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy (SQZMOM_LB Strategy) is an automated trading strategy based on the Squeeze Momentum Indicator developed by LazyBear, which itself is a modification of John Carter's "TTM Squeeze" concept from his book Mastering the Trade (Chapter 11). This strategy is designed to identify low-volatility phases in the market, which often precede explosive price movements, and to enter trades in the direction of the prevailing momentum.
Concept & Indicator Breakdown
The strategy employs a combination of Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to detect market squeezes:
Squeeze Condition:
When Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channels (Black Crosses), volatility is low, signaling a potential upcoming price breakout.
When Bollinger Bands move outside Keltner Channels (Gray Crosses), the squeeze is released, indicating an expansion in volatility.
Momentum Calculation:
A linear regression-based momentum value is used instead of traditional momentum indicators.
The momentum histogram is color-coded to show strength and direction:
Lime/Green: Increasing bullish momentum
Red/Maroon: Increasing bearish momentum
Signal Colors:
Black: Market is in a squeeze (low volatility).
Gray: Squeeze is released, and volatility is expanding.
Blue: No squeeze condition is present.
Strategy Logic
The script uses historical volatility conditions and momentum trends to generate buy/sell signals and manage positions.
1. Entry Conditions
Long Position (Buy)
The squeeze just released (Gray Cross after Black Cross).
The momentum value is increasing and positive.
The momentum is at a local low compared to the past 100 bars.
The price is above the 100-period EMA.
The closing price is higher than the previous close.
Short Position (Sell)
The squeeze just released (Gray Cross after Black Cross).
The momentum value is decreasing and negative.
The momentum is at a local high compared to the past 100 bars.
The price is below the 100-period EMA.
The closing price is lower than the previous close.
2. Exit Conditions
Long Exit:
The momentum value starts decreasing (momentum lower than previous bar).
Short Exit:
The momentum value starts increasing (momentum higher than previous bar).
Position Sizing
Position size is dynamically adjusted based on 8% of strategy equity, divided by the current closing price, ensuring risk-adjusted trade sizes.
How to Use This Strategy
Apply on Suitable Markets:
Best for stocks, indices, and forex pairs with momentum-driven price action.
Works on multiple timeframes but is most effective on higher timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily).
Confirm Entries with Additional Indicators:
The author recommends ADX or WaveTrend to refine entries and avoid false signals.
Risk Management:
Since the strategy dynamically sizes positions, it's advised to use stop-losses or risk-based exits to avoid excessive drawdowns.
Final Thoughts
The Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy provides a systematic approach to trading volatility expansions, leveraging the classic TTM Squeeze principles with a unique linear regression-based momentum calculation. Originally inspired by John Carter’s method, LazyBear's version and this strategy offer a refined, adaptable tool for traders looking to capitalize on market momentum shifts.

E9 Shark-32 PatternUnderstanding the Shark-32 Pattern and its Trading Applications
The Shark-32 Pattern is a bearish technical trading formation used to predict market reversals or trend continuations. It highlights a downward move followed by a corrective rally, signaling a potential resumption of the downtrend. Here’s a breakdown of how it works:
What is the Shark-32 Pattern?
The Shark-32 pattern is a five-wave structure typically observed in bearish markets:
Wave 0 to X: A significant price decline starts the pattern.
Wave X to A: A correction pushes the price slightly upward.
Wave A to B: The price drops again but doesn’t reach the initial low.
Wave B to C: A final sharp decline concludes the pattern.
Once Wave C is formed, it suggests that the market will continue to move downward, presenting a potential selling or shorting opportunity.
Using the Pattern in Trading
This pattern is valuable for traders seeking high-probability bearish setups. The goal is to capitalize on the continuation of a downtrend following the corrective rally (X to A). Identifying the Shark-32 pattern helps anticipate the next wave of selling pressure.
Trading Setup
Identify a Shark-32 pattern.
If the price closes above the pattern's high, buy at the open the next day.
If the price closes below the pattern's low, short at the open the next day.
Sell/cover when the price moves 7% in the direction of the breakout.
Close the trade for a loss if the price moves 7% in the opposite direction.
For example, in a bull market after an upward breakout from a Shark-32, the net gain was $69.55. The method won 56% of the time with 5,218 winning trades and an average gain of $714.07. Conversely, 44% of trades were losers, with an average loss of $747.33. The average holding period was 26 calendar days.
The gains and losses were closely aligned with the 7% threshold set for this test.
Key Target Levels
To enhance the strategy, use dotted projection lines as target levels:
Upper Target: Drawn above the high of the corrective rally (Wave A). If the price breaks above this line, it may signal further upward movement, indicating a potentially weaker downtrend.
Lower Target: Positioned below the low of Wave C, providing a target for bearish trades.
These lines help determine future price targets and assist in setting take-profit or stop-loss levels.
Trading the Breakout
Look for breakouts once the Shark-32 pattern is identified:
Upward Breakout: If the price closes above the green line (high from two bars ago), it indicates a potential reversal to the upside.
Downward Breakout: If the price breaks below the red line (low from two bars ago), it confirms the bearish continuation.
Breakouts allow traders to adjust their positions based on market shifts.
Trading Tips
Continuation: The Shark-32 pattern acts as a continuation 60% of the time, confirming the ongoing trend.
Breakout Confirmation: Wait for the price to close above or below the pattern’s key levels before entering a trade.
Trade with the Trend: Since the Shark-32 is a continuation pattern, expect the breakout to align with the inbound price trend.
Symmetry: Patterns with symmetry often perform better. For more insights, refer to detailed trading literature.
Half-Staff: The Shark-32 can form midway in a trend, similar to flags and pennants.
Shark-32: Trading Performance
Based on an analysis of 23,369 trades, the following performance metrics were observed:
Bull Market with Upward Breakout: The average net profit was $69.55. This method won 56% of the time, with winning trades averaging $714.07. Losing trades, which constituted 44% of the total, had an average loss of $747.33. The average holding period was 26 calendar days.
Bull Market with Downward Breakout: The average net loss was $(76.36). This method won 43% of the time, with winning trades averaging $753.56. Losing trades, which constituted 57% of the total, had an average loss of $706.32. The average holding period was 23 calendar days.
Bear Market with Upward Breakout: The average net loss was $(89.13). This method won 46% of the time, with winning trades averaging $710.77. Losing trades, which constituted 54% of the total, had an average loss of $756.97. The average holding period was 16 calendar days.
Bear Market with Downward Breakout: The average net profit was $65.17. This method won 52% of the time, with winning trades averaging $781.62. Losing trades, which constituted 48% of the total, had an average loss of $722.41. The average holding period was 13 calendar days.
ABCD Projection [Trendoscope®]Over the years, we have extensively explored and published numerous scripts centered around various chart patterns, including Harmonic Patterns, Reversal Patterns, Elliott Waves, and more. Our expertise in these areas has led to frequent requests for an indicator based on the ABCD pattern. Although we didn't include it as part of our Harmonic Patterns collection, the development of a dedicated ABCD Projection Indicator has always been a priority for us.
🎲 Overview of the ABCD Projection Indicator
The ABCD Projection Indicator is designed to identify and project ABCD patterns using a Zigzag-based approach. This pattern, characterized by alternating pivot highs and lows labeled as A, B, C, and D, is particularly significant in trending markets where it signifies trend continuation following deep pullbacks.
The indicator works by confirming the ABC pivots and projecting the D pivot based on the established price swings. Since ABCD patterns are most effective in trending environments, the indicator focuses on filtering patterns where the retracement from the C pivot has not compromised the trade's potential. Specifically, it ensures that the starting point (S)—where the pattern is detected—has not retraced beyond a defined threshold, preserving the opportunity to execute a trade with the goal of reaching the projected D pivot.
Additionally, the ABCD Projection Indicator considers the retracement ratio from the C pivot, which plays a crucial role in risk management. A higher retracement ratio reduces the stop distance (from pivot A to the entry point S) while increasing the distance to the target (pivot D), thereby enhancing the reward/risk ratio for trades.
🎲 Components of the ABCD Projection Indicator
The ABCD Projection Indicator comprises several key components:
A, B, C Pivots and Zigzag Wave : These elements form the foundational structure of the ABCD pattern.
S Point : This is the location where the pattern is identified, positioned a few bars away from the confirmed C pivot.
Estimated D Pivot : The D pivot is projected based on the A, B, and C price levels. The time or distance to the D pivot is influenced by the starting point S.
Mini Stats Table : Located in the top right corner, this table displays win/loss ratios and risk/reward data for both bullish and bearish scenarios.
Fibonacci Levels : Calculated from the C to D pivots, these levels are provided as a reference for additional analysis.
🎲 Indicator Settings
The settings for the ABCD Projection Indicator are minimal and intuitive, with tooltips provided to guide users through the configuration process.
