Major Features:
Trend Cloud:
Working Principle:
The script utilizes the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to assess market momentum, identifying bullish and bearish phases based on RSI readings. It calculates two boolean variables, bullmove and bearmove, which signal shifts in momentum direction by considering changes in the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the closing price. When RSI indicates bullish momentum and the closing price's EMA exhibits positive changes, bullmove is triggered, signifying the start of a bullish phase. Conversely, when RSI suggests bearish momentum and the closing price's EMA shows negative changes, bearmove is activated, marking the beginning of a bearish phase. This systematic approach helps in understanding the current trend of the price. The script visually emphasizes these phases on the chart using plot shape markers, providing traders with clear indications of trend shifts.
Benefits of Using Trend Cloud:
Comprehensive Momentum Assessment: The script offers a holistic view of market momentum by incorporating RSI readings and changes in the closing price's EMA, enabling traders to identify both bullish and bearish phases effectively.
Structured Trend Recognition: With the calculation of boolean variables, the script provides a structured approach to recognizing shifts in momentum direction, enhancing traders' ability to interpret market dynamics.
Visual Clarity: Plotshape markers visually highlight the start and end of bullish and bearish phases on the chart, facilitating easy identification of trend shifts and helping traders to stay informed.
Prompt Response: Traders can promptly react to changing market conditions as the script triggers alerts when bullish or bearish phases begin, allowing them to seize potential trading opportunities swiftly.
Informed Decision-Making: By integrating various indicators and visual cues, the script enables traders to make well-informed decisions and adapt their strategies according to prevailing market sentiment, ultimately enhancing their trading performance.
How to use this feature:
The most effective way to maximize the benefits of this feature is to use it in conjunction with other key indicators and visual cues. By combining the color-coded clouds, which indicate bullish and bearish sentiment, with other features such as IS candles, microtrend candles, volume candles, and sentimeter candles, traders can gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics. For instance, aligning the color of the clouds with the trend direction indicated by IS candles, microtrend candles, and sentimeter candles can provide confirmation of trend strength or potential reversals.
Furthermore, traders can leverage the trend cloud as a trailing stop-loss tool for long entries, enhancing risk management strategies. By adjusting the stop-loss level based on the color of the cloud, traders can trail their positions to capture potential profits while minimizing losses. For long entries, maintaining the position as long as the cloud remains green can help traders stay aligned with the prevailing bullish sentiment. Conversely, a shift in color from green to red serves as a signal to exit the position, indicating a potential reversal in market sentiment and minimizing potential losses. This integration of the trend cloud as a trailing stop-loss mechanism adds an additional layer of risk management to trading strategies, increasing the likelihood of successful trades while reducing exposure to adverse market movements.
Moreover, the red cloud serves as an indicator of decay in option premiums and potential theta effect, particularly relevant for options traders. When the cloud turns red, it suggests a decline in option prices and an increase in theta decay, highlighting the importance of managing options positions accordingly. Traders may consider adjusting their options strategies, such as rolling positions or closing out contracts, to mitigate the impact of theta decay and preserve capital. By incorporating this insight into options pricing dynamics, traders can make more informed decisions about their options trades.
Scalping Cloud:
The scalping cloud serves as a specialized component within the trend cloud feature, specifically designed to pinpoint potential long and short entry points within the overarching trend cloud. Here's how it works:
Trend Identification: The trend cloud feature typically highlights the prevailing trend direction based on various technical indicators, price action, or other criteria. It visually represents the momentum and direction of the market over a given period.
Refined Entry Signals: Within this broader trend context, the scalping cloud narrows its focus to identify shorter-term trading opportunities. It does this by analyzing more granular price movements and shorter timeframes, seeking out potential entry points that align with the larger trend.
Long and Short Entries: The scalping cloud distinguishes between potential long (buy) and short (sell) entry opportunities within the trend cloud. For instance, within an uptrend indicated by the trend cloud, the scalping cloud might identify brief retracements or pullbacks as potential long entry points. Conversely, in a downtrend, it may signal short entry opportunities during temporary upward corrections.
Risk Management: By identifying potential entry points within the context of the trend, the scalping cloud also aids in risk management. Traders can use these signals to place stop-loss orders and manage their positions effectively, reducing the risk of adverse price movements.
The scalping cloud operates by analyzing the crossover and crossunder events between two key indicators: the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) and a Weighted Average. Here's how it works:
Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA): DEMA is a type of moving average that seeks to reduce lag by applying a double smoothing technique to price data. It responds more quickly to price changes compared to traditional moving averages, making it suitable for identifying short-term trends and potential trading opportunities.
Weighted Average: The weighted average calculates the average price of an asset over a specified period. However, it incorporates a weighting scheme that assigns more significance to recent price data, resulting in a more responsive indicator that closely tracks current market trends.
CE and NO CE Signals:
CE signals typically represent a Long Scalping Opportunity, suggesting that conditions are favorable for entering a long position. These signals indicate a strong upward momentum in the market, which traders can exploit for short-term gains through scalping strategies.
On the other hand, when there are no CE signals present, it doesn't necessarily mean that the trend has reversed or turned bearish. Instead, it indicates that the trend is still bullish, but the market is experiencing an active pullback. During a pullback, prices may temporarily retreat from recent highs as traders take profits or reevaluate their positions. While the overall trend remains upward, the pullback introduces a degree of uncertainty, making it less favorable for entering new long positions.
In such a scenario, traders may opt to exercise caution and refrain from entering new long positions until the pullback phase has concluded. Instead, they might consider waiting for confirmation signals, such as the resumption of CE signals or other bullish indications, before reengaging in long positions.
PE and NO PE Signals:
PE signals typically indicate a Short Entry opportunity, signaling that market conditions are conducive to entering a short position.
Conversely, when there are no PE signals present, it signifies that while the trend remains bearish, the market is currently in an active phase of consolidation or pullback. During such periods, prices may temporarily rise from recent lows, reflecting a pause in the downward momentum. While the overall trend remains downward, the absence of PE signals suggests that it may not be an optimal time to enter new short positions.
In this context, traders may exercise caution and wait for clearer signals before initiating new short positions. They might monitor the market closely for signs of a resumption in bearish momentum, such as the emergence of PE signals or other bearish indications. Alternatively, traders may choose to wait on the sidelines until market conditions stabilize or provide clearer directional signals.
Working Principle Of CE and PE Signals:
The feature calculates candlestick values based on the open, high, low, and close prices of each bar. By comparing these derived candlestick values, it determines whether the current candlestick is bullish or bearish. Additionally, it signals when there is a change in the color (bullish or bearish) of the derived candlesticks compared to the previous bar, enabling traders to identify potential shifts in market sentiment.
Micro Trend Candles:
Working Principle:
This feature begins by initializing variables to determine trend channel width and track price movements. Average True Range (ATR) is then calculated to measure market volatility, influencing the channel's size. Highs and lows are identified within a specified range, and trends are assessed based on price breaches, with potential changes signaled accordingly. The price channel is continually updated to adapt to market shifts, and arrows are placed to indicate potential entry points. Colors are assigned to represent bullish and bearish trends, dynamically adjusting based on current market conditions. Finally, candles on the chart are colored to visually depict the identified micro trend, offering traders an intuitive way to interpret market sentiment and potential entry opportunities.
Benefits of using Micro Trend Candles:
Traders can use these identified micro trends to spot potential short-term trading opportunities. For example:
Trend Following: Traders may decide to enter trades aligned with the prevailing micro trend. If the candles are consistently colored in a certain direction, traders may consider entering positions in that direction.
Reversals: Conversely, if the script signals a potential reversal by changing the candle colors, traders may anticipate trend reversals and adjust their trading strategies accordingly. For instance, they might close existing positions or enter new positions in anticipation of a trend reversal.
It's important to note that these micro trends are short-term in nature and may not always align with broader market trends. Therefore, traders utilizing this script should consider their trading timeframes and adjust their strategies accordingly.
How to use this feature:
This feature assigns colors to candles to represent bullish and bearish trends, with adjustments made based on current market conditions. Green candles accompanied by a green trend cloud signal a potential long entry, while red candles suggest caution, indicating a bearish trend. This visual representation allows traders to interpret market sentiment intuitively, identifying optimal entry points and exercising caution during potential downtrends.
Scalping Candles (Inspired by Elliott Wave and Open Interest Concepts):
Working Principle:
This feature draws inspiration from the Elliot Wave method, utilizing technical analysis techniques to discern potential market trends and sentiment shifts. It begins by calculating the variance between two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of closing prices, mimicking Elliot Wave's focus on wave and trend analysis. The shorter-term EMA captures immediate price momentum, while the longer-term EMA reflects broader market trends. A smoother Exponential Moving Average (EMA) line, derived from the difference between these EMAs, aids in identifying short-term trend shifts or momentum reversals.
Benefits of using Scalping Candles Inspired by Elliott Wave:
The Elliott Wave principle is a form of technical analysis that attempts to predict future price movements by identifying patterns in market charts. It suggests that markets move in repetitive waves or cycles, and traders can potentially profit by recognizing these patterns.
While this script does not explicitly analyze Elliot Wave patterns, it is inspired by the principle's emphasis on trend analysis and market sentiment. By calculating and visualizing the difference between EMAs and assigning colors to candles based on this analysis, the script aims to provide traders with insights into potential market sentiment shifts, which can align with the broader philosophy of Elliott Wave analysis.
How to use this feature:
Candlestick colors are assigned based on the relationship between the EMA line and the variance. When the variance is below or equal to the EMA line, candles are colored red, suggesting a bearish sentiment. Conversely, when the variance is above the EMA line, candles are tinted green, indicating a bullish outlook. Though not explicitly analyzing Elliot Wave patterns, the script aligns with its principles of trend analysis and market sentiment interpretation. By offering visual cues on sentiment shifts, it provides traders with insights into potential trading opportunities, echoing Elliot Wave's emphasis on pattern recognition and trend analysis.
Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Working Principle:
This feature serves to identify and visualize support and resistance levels on the chart, primarily based on the chosen Chart Timeframe (CTF). It allows users to specify parameters such as the number of bars considered on the left and right sides of each pivot point, as well as line width and label color. Moreover, users have the option to enable or disable the display of these levels. By utilizing functions to calculate pivot highs and lows within the specified timeframe, the script determines the highest high and lowest low surrounding each pivot point.
Additionally, it defines functions to create lines and labels for each detected support and resistance level. Notably, this feature incorporates a trading method that emphasizes the concept of resistance turning into support after breakouts, thereby providing valuable insights for traders employing such strategies. These lines are drawn on the chart, with colors indicating whether the level is above or below the current close price, aiding traders in visualizing key levels and making informed trading decisions.
Benefits of Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Identification of Price Levels: Support and resistance levels help traders identify significant price levels where buying (support) and selling (resistance) pressure may intensify. These levels are often formed based on historical price movements and are regarded as areas of interest for traders.
Decision Making: Support and resistance levels assist traders in making informed trading decisions. By observing price reactions near these levels, traders can gauge market sentiment and adjust their strategies accordingly. For example, traders may choose to enter or exit positions, set stop-loss orders, or take profit targets based on price behavior around these levels.
Risk Management: Support and resistance levels aid in risk management by providing reference points for setting stop-loss orders. Traders often place stop-loss orders below support levels for long positions and above resistance levels for short positions to limit potential losses if the market moves against them.
How to use this feature:
Planning Long Positions: When considering long positions, it's advantageous to strategize when the price is in proximity to a support level identified by the script. This suggests a potential area of buying interest where traders may expect a bounce or reversal in price. Additionally, confirm the bullish bias by ensuring that the trend cloud is green, indicating favorable market conditions for long trades.
Waiting for Breakout: If long signals are generated near resistance levels detected by the script, exercise patience and wait for a breakout above the resistance. A breakout above resistance signifies potential strength in the upward momentum and may present a more opportune moment to enter long positions. This approach aligns with trading methodologies that emphasize confirmation of bullish momentum before initiating trades.
StopLoss and Target Lines:
In addition to generating entry signals, this indicator also incorporates predefined stop-loss ray lines and configurable risk-reward (R:R) target lines to enhance risk management and profit-taking strategies. Here's how these features work:
Predefined Stop-loss Ray Lines: The indicator automatically plots stop-loss ray lines on the chart, serving as visual guidelines for setting stop-loss levels. These stop-loss lines are predetermined based on specific criteria, such as volatility levels, support and resistance zones, or predefined risk parameters. Traders can use these lines as reference points to place their stop-loss orders, aiming to limit potential losses if the market moves against their position.
Configurable Risk-Reward (R:R) Target Lines: In addition to stop-loss lines, the indicator allows traders to set configurable risk-reward (R:R) target lines on the chart. These target lines represent predefined price levels where traders intend to take profits based on their desired risk-reward ratio. By adjusting the placement of these lines, traders can customize their risk-reward ratios according to their trading preferences and risk tolerance.
Risk Management: The predefined stop-loss ray lines help traders manage risk by providing clear exit points if the trade goes against their expectations. By adhering to these predetermined stop-loss levels, traders can minimize potential losses and protect their trading capital, thereby enhancing overall risk management.
Profit-taking Strategy: On the other hand, the configurable R:R target lines assist traders in establishing profit-taking strategies. By setting target levels based on their desired risk-reward ratio, traders can aim to capture profits at predefined price levels that offer favorable risk-reward profiles. This allows traders to systematically take profits while ensuring that potential gains outweigh potential losses over the long term.
The stop-loss and target lines incorporated in this indicator are dynamic in nature, providing traders with the flexibility to utilize them as trailing stop-loss and extended take-profit targets. Here's how these dynamic features work:
Trailing Stop-loss: Traders can employ the stop-loss lines as trailing stop-loss levels, allowing them to adjust their stop-loss orders as the market moves in their favor. As the price continues to move in the desired direction, indicator can dynamically adjust the stop-loss line to lock in profits while still allowing room for potential further gains. This trailing stop-loss mechanism helps traders secure profits while allowing their winning trades to continue running as long as the market remains favorable.
Extended Take Profit Targets: Similarly, traders can utilize the target lines as extended take-profit targets, enabling them to capture additional profits beyond their initial profit targets. By adjusting the placement of these target lines based on evolving market conditions or technical signals, traders can extend their profit-taking strategy to capitalize on potential price extensions or trend continuations. This flexibility allows traders to maximize their profit potential by capturing larger price movements while managing their risk effectively.
Rangebound Bars:
When the Rangebound Bars feature is enabled, the indicator represents candles in a distinct purple color to visually denote periods of sideways or range-bound price action. This visual cue helps traders easily identify when the market is consolidating and lacking clear directional momentum. Here's how it works:
Purple Candle Color: When the Rangebound Bars feature is active, the indicator displays candlesticks in a purple color to highlight periods of sideways price movement. This color differentiation stands out against the usual colors used for bullish (e.g., green or white) and bearish (e.g., red or black) candles, making it easier for traders to recognize range-bound conditions at a glance.
Signaling Sideways Price Action: The purple coloration of candles indicates that price movements are confined within a relatively narrow range and lack a clear upward or downward trend. This may occur when the market is consolidating, experiencing indecision, or undergoing a period of accumulation or distribution.
Working Principle:
The Rangebound Bars feature of this indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying and navigating consolidating market conditions, where price movements are confined within a relatively narrow range. This feature utilizes Pivot levels and the Average True Range (ATR) concept to determine when the market is range-bound and provides signals to stay out of such price action. Here's how it works:
Pivot Levels: Pivot levels are key price levels derived from the previous period's high, low, and closing prices. They serve as potential support and resistance levels and are widely used by traders to identify significant price levels where price action may stall or reverse. The Rangebound Bars feature incorporates Pivot levels into its analysis to identify ranges where price tends to consolidate.
Average True Range (ATR): The Average True Range is a measure of market volatility that calculates the average range between the high and low prices over a specified period. It provides traders with insights into the level of price volatility and helps set appropriate stop-loss and take-profit levels. In the context of the Rangebound Bars feature, ATR is used to gauge the extent of price fluctuations within the identified range.

Up arrows indicate potential long entry points, complementing the bullish bias of the trend cloud. Conversely, down arrows signify an active pullback in progress, signaling caution and prompting traders to refrain from entering long positions during such periods.
How to use this feature:
Confirmation: Confirm bullish market conditions with the Trend Cloud indicator. Ensure alignment between trend cloud signals, candlestick colors, and arrow indicators for confident trading decisions.
Entry Signals: Look for buy signals within a green trend cloud, indicated by bullish candlestick color changes and up arrows, suggesting potential long entry points aligned with the prevailing bullish sentiment.
Wait Signals: Exercise caution when encountering down arrows, which signify wait signals or active pullbacks in progress. Avoid entering long positions during these periods to avoid potential losses.
Exit Strategy: Use trend cloud color changes as signals to exit long positions. When the trend cloud shifts color, consider closing out long positions to lock in profits or minimize losses.
Profit Management: It's important to book or lock in some profits early on in option buying. Consider taking partial profits when the trade is in your favor and trail the remaining position to maximize gains on favorable trades.
Risk Management: Implement stop-loss orders or trailing stops to manage risk effectively. Exit positions promptly if sentiment shifts or if price movements deviate from the established trend, safeguarding capital.
Up and Down Signals:
Working Principle:
This feature calculates Trailing Stoploss (TSL) using the Average True Range (ATR) to dynamically adjust the stop level based on price movements. It generates buy signals when the price crosses above the trailing stop and sell signals when it crosses below. These signals are plotted on the chart and trigger alerts, signaling potential trading opportunities. Additionally, the script selectively plots Up and Down signals only when the Implementation Shortfall Calculation identifies scalp opportunities, independent of the prevailing price trend.
Benefits of using Up and Down Signals:
Trailing Stoploss: The script employs an ATR-based trailing stop, allowing traders to adjust stop levels dynamically in response to changing market conditions, thereby maximizing profit potential and minimizing losses.
Clear Signal Generation: Buy and sell signals are generated based on price interactions with the trailing stop, providing clear indications of entry and exit points for traders to act upon.
Alert Notifications: The script triggers alerts when buy or sell signals are generated, ensuring traders remain informed of potential trading opportunities even when not actively monitoring the charts.
Scalping Opportunities: By incorporating Implementation Shortfall Calculation, the script identifies scalp opportunities, enabling traders to capitalize on short-term price movements irrespective of the prevailing trend.
How to use this feature:
Signal Interpretation: Interpret Up signals as opportunities to enter long positions when the price crosses above the trailing stop, and Down signals as cues to exit.
Alert Monitoring: Pay attention to alert notifications triggered by the script, indicating potential trading opportunities based on signal generation.
Scalping Strategy: When Up and Down signals are plotted alongside scalp opportunities identified by the Implementation Shortfall Calculation, consider scalping trades aligned with these signals for short-term profit-taking, regardless of the overall market trend.
Consideration of Trend Cloud: Remember that this feature does not account for the underlying trend provided by the Trend Cloud feature. Consequently, the take profit levels generated by the trailing stop may be smaller than those derived from trend-following strategies. It's advisable to supplement this feature with additional trend analysis to optimize profit-taking levels and enhance overall trading performance.
Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Working Principle:
This feature serves to identify and visualize support and resistance levels on the chart, primarily based on the chosen Chart Timeframe (CTF). It allows users to specify parameters such as the number of bars considered on the left and right sides of each pivot point, as well as line width and label color. Moreover, users have the option to enable or disable the display of these levels. By utilizing functions to calculate pivot highs and lows within the specified timeframe, the script determines the highest high and lowest low surrounding each pivot point.
Additionally, it defines functions to create lines and labels for each detected support and resistance level. Notably, this feature incorporates a trading method that emphasizes the concept of resistance turning into support after breakouts, thereby providing valuable insights for traders employing such strategies. These lines are drawn on the chart, with colors indicating whether the level is above or below the current close price, aiding traders in visualizing key levels and making informed trading decisions.
Benefits of Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Identification of Price Levels: Support and resistance levels help traders identify significant price levels where buying (support) and selling (resistance) pressure may intensify. These levels are often formed based on historical price movements and are regarded as areas of interest for traders.
Decision Making: Support and resistance levels assist traders in making informed trading decisions. By observing price reactions near these levels, traders can gauge market sentiment and adjust their strategies accordingly. For example, traders may choose to enter or exit positions, set stop-loss orders, or take profit targets based on price behavior around these levels.
Risk Management: Support and resistance levels aid in risk management by providing reference points for setting stop-loss orders. Traders often place stop-loss orders below support levels for long positions and above resistance levels for short positions to limit potential losses if the market moves against them.
How to use this feature:
Planning Long Positions: When considering long positions, it's advantageous to strategize when the price is in proximity to a support level identified by the script. This suggests a potential area of buying interest where traders may expect a bounce or reversal in price. Additionally, confirm the bullish bias by ensuring that the trend cloud is green, indicating favorable market conditions for long trades.
Waiting for Breakout: If long signals are generated near resistance levels detected by the script, exercise patience and wait for a breakout above the resistance. A breakout above resistance signifies potential strength in the upward momentum and may present a more opportune moment to enter long positions. This approach aligns with trading methodologies that emphasize confirmation of bullish momentum before initiating trades.

DEDICATION:
This script is dedicated to the memory of Nikolai Dmitriyevich Kondratiev (Никола́й Дми́триевич Кондра́тьев) as tribute for being a pioneering economist and statistician, paving the way for modern econometrics by advocation of rigorous and empirical methodologies. One of his most substantial contributions to the study of business cycle theory include a revolutionary hypothesis recognizing the existence of dynamic cycle-like phenomenon inherent to economies that are characterized by distinct phases of expansion, stagnation, recession and recovery, what we now know as "Kondratiev Waves" (K-waves). Kondratiev was one of the first economists to recognize the vital significance of applying quantitative analysis on empirical data to evaluate economic dynamics by means of statistical methods. His understanding was that conceptual models alone were insufficient to adequately interpret real-world economic conditions, and that sophisticated analysis was necessary to better comprehend the nature of trending/cycling economic behaviors. Additionally, he recognized prosperous economic cycles were predominantly driven by a combination of technological innovations and infrastructure investments that resulted in profound implications for economic growth and development.
I will mention this... nation's economies MUST be supported and defended to continuously evolve incrementally in order to flourish in perpetuity OR suffer through eras with lasting ramifications of societal stagnation and implosion.
Analogous to the realm of economics, aperiodic cycles/frequencies, both enduring and ephemeral, do exist in all facets of life, every second of every day. To name a few that any blind man can naturally see are: heartbeat (cardiac cycles), respiration rates, circadian rhythms of sleep, powerful magnetic solar cycles, seasonal cycles, lunar cycles, weather patterns, vegetative growth cycles, and ocean waves. Do not pretend for one second that these basic aforementioned examples do not affect business cycle fluctuations in minuscule and monumental ways hour to hour, day to day, season to season, year to year, and decade to decade in every nation on the planet. Kondratiev's original seminal theories in macroeconomics from nearly a century ago have proven remarkably prescient with many of his antiquated elementary observations/notions/hypotheses in macroeconomics being scholastically studied and topically researched further. Therefore, I am compelled to honor and recognize his statistical insight and foresight.
If only.. Kondratiev could hold a pocket sized computer in the cup of both hands bearing the TradingView logo and platform services, I truly believe he would be amazed in marvelous delight with a GARGANTUAN smile on his face.
INTRODUCTION:
Firstly, this is NOT technically speaking an indicator like most others. I would describe it as an advanced cycle period detector to obtain market data spectral estimates with low latency and moderate frequency resolution. Developers can take advantage of this detector by creating scripts that utilize a "Dominant Cycle Source" input to adaptively govern algorithms. Be forewarned, I would only recommend this for advanced developers, not novice code dabbling. Although, there is some Pine wizardry introduced here for novice Pine enthusiasts to witness and learn from. AI did describe the code into one super-crunched sentence as, "a rare feat of exceptionally formatted code masterfully balancing visual clarity, precision, and complexity to provide immense educational value for both programming newcomers and expert Pine coders alike."
Understand all of the above aforementioned? Buckle up and proceed for a lengthy read of verbose complexity...
This is my enhanced and heavily modified version of autocorrelation periodogram (ACP) for Pine Script v5.0. It was originally devised by the mathemagician John Ehlers for detecting dominant cycles (frequencies) in an asset's price action. I have been sitting on code similar to this for a long time, but I decided to unleash the advanced code with my fashion. Originally Ehlers released this with multiple versions, one in a 2016 TASC article and the other in his last published 2013 book "Cycle Analytics for Traders", chapter 8. He wasn't joking about "concepts of advanced technical trading" and ACP is nowhere near to his most intimidating and ingenious calculations in code. I will say the book goes into many finer details about the original periodogram, so if you wish to delve into even more elaborate info regarding Ehlers' original ACP form AND how you may adapt algorithms, you'll have to obtain one. Note to reader, comparing Ehlers' original code to my chimeric code embracing the "Power of Pine", you will notice they have little resemblance.
What you see is a new species of autocorrelation periodogram combining Ehlers' innovation with my fascinations of what ACP could be in a Pine package. One other intention of this script's code is to pay homage to Ehlers' lifelong works. Like Kondratiev, Ehlers is also a hardcore cycle enthusiast. I intend to carry on the fire Ehlers envisioned and I believe that is literally displayed here as a pleasant "fiery" example endowed with Pine. With that said, I tried to make the code as computationally efficient as possible, without going into dozens of more crazy lines of code to speed things up even more. There's also a few creative modifications I made by making alterations to the originating formulas that I felt were improvements, one of them being lag reduction. By recently questioning every single thing I thought I knew about ACP, combined with the accumulation of my current knowledge base, this is the innovative revision I came up with. I could have improved it more but decided not to mind thrash too many TV members, maybe later...
I am now confident Pine should have adequate overhead left over to attach various indicators to the dominant cycle via input.source(). TV, I apologize in advance if in the future a server cluster combusts into a raging inferno... Coders, be fully prepared to build entire algorithms from pure raw code, because not all of the built-in Pine functions fully support dynamic periods (e.g. length=ANYTHING). Many of them do, as this was requested and granted a while ago, but some functions are just inherently finicky due to implementation combinations and MUST be emulated via raw code. I would imagine some comprehensive library or numerous authored scripts have portions of raw code for Pine built-ins some where on TV if you look diligently enough.
Notice: Unfortunately, I will not provide any integration support into member's projects at all. I have my own projects that require way too much of my day already. While I was refactoring my life (forgoing many other "important" endeavors) in the early half of 2023, I primarily focused on this code over and over in my surplus time. During that same time I was working on other innovations that are far above and beyond what this code is. I hope you understand.
The best way programmatically may be to incorporate this code into your private Pine project directly, after brutal testing of course, but that may be too challenging for many in early development. Being able to see the periodogram is also beneficial, so input sourcing may be the "better" avenue to tether portions of the dominant cycle to algorithms. Unique indication being able to utilize the dominantCycle may be advantageous when tethering this script to those algorithms. The easiest way is to manually set your indicators to what ACP recognizes as the dominant cycle, but that's actually not considered dynamic real time adaption of an indicator. Different indicators may need a proportion of the dominantCycle, say half it's value, while others may need the full value of it. That's up to you to figure that out in practice. Sourcing one or more custom indicators dynamically to one detector's dominantCycle may require code like this: `int sourceDC = int(math.max(6, math.min(49, input.source(close, "Dominant Cycle Source"))))`. Keep in mind, some algos can use a float, while algos with a for loop require an integer.
I have witnessed a few attempts by talented TV members for a Pine based autocorrelation periodogram, but not in this caliber. Trust me, coding ACP is no ordinary task to accomplish in Pine and modifying it blessed with applicable improvements is even more challenging. For over 4 years, I have been slowly improving this code here and there randomly. It is beautiful just like a real flame, but... this one can still burn you! My mind was fried to charcoal black a few times wrestling with it in the distant past. My very first attempt at translating ACP was a month long endeavor because PSv3 simply didn't have arrays back then. Anyways, this is ACP with a newer engine, I hope you enjoy it. Any TV subscriber can utilize this code as they please. If you are capable of sufficiently using it properly, please use it wisely with intended good will. That is all I beg of you.
Lastly, you now see how I have rasterized my Pine with Ehlers' swami-like tech. Yep, this whole time I have been using hline() since PSv3, not plot(). Evidently, plot() still has a deficiency limited to only 32 plots when it comes to creating intense eye candy indicators, the last I checked. The use of hline() is the optimal choice for rasterizing Ehlers styled heatmaps. This does only contain two color schemes of the many I have formerly created, but that's all that is essentially needed for this gizmo. Anything else is generally for a spectacle or seeing how brutal Pine can be color treated. The real hurdle is being able to manipulate colors dynamically with Merlin like capabilities from multiple algo results. That's the true challenging part of these heatmap contraptions to obtain multi-colored "predator vision" level indication. You now have basic hline() food for thought empowerment to wield as you can imaginatively dream in Pine projects.
PERIODOGRAM UTILITY IN REAL WORLD SCENARIOS:
This code is a testament to the abilities that have yet to be fully realized with indication advancements. Periodograms, spectrograms, and heatmaps are a powerful tool with real-world applications in various fields such as financial markets, electrical engineering, astronomy, seismology, and neuro/medical applications. For instance, among these diverse fields, it may help traders and investors identify market cycles/periodicities in financial markets, support engineers in optimizing electrical or acoustic systems, aid astronomers in understanding celestial object attributes, assist seismologists with predicting earthquake risks, help medical researchers with neurological disorder identification, and detection of asymptomatic cardiovascular clotting in the vaxxed via full body thermography. In either field of study, technologies in likeness to periodograms may very well provide us with a better sliver of analysis beyond what was ever formerly invented. Periodograms can identify dominant cycles and frequency components in data, which may provide valuable insights and possibly provide better-informed decisions. By utilizing periodograms within aspects of market analytics, individuals and organizations can potentially refrain from making blinded decisions and leverage data-driven insights instead.
PERIODOGRAM INTERPRETATION:
The periodogram renders the power spectrum of a signal, with the y-axis representing the periodicity (frequencies/wavelengths) and the x-axis representing time. The y-axis is divided into periods, with each elevation representing a period. In this periodogram, the y-axis ranges from 6 at the very bottom to 49 at the top, with intermediate values in between, all indicating the power of the corresponding frequency component by color. The higher the position occurs on the y-axis, the longer the period or lower the frequency. The x-axis of the periodogram represents time and is divided into equal intervals, with each vertical column on the axis corresponding to the time interval when the signal was measured. The most recent values/colors are on the right side.
The intensity of the colors on the periodogram indicate the power level of the corresponding frequency or period. The fire color scheme is distinctly like the heat intensity from any casual flame witnessed in a small fire from a lighter, match, or camp fire. The most intense power would be indicated by the brightest of yellow, while the lowest power would be indicated by the darkest shade of red or just black. By analyzing the pattern of colors across different periods, one may gain insights into the dominant frequency components of the signal and visually identify recurring cycles/patterns of periodicity.
SETTINGS CONFIGURATIONS BRIEFLY EXPLAINED:
Source Options: These settings allow you to choose the data source for the analysis. Using the `Source` selection, you may tether to additional data streams (e.g. close, hlcc4, hl2), which also may include samples from any other indicator. For example, this could be my "Chirped Sine Wave Generator" script found in my member profile. By using the `SineWave` selection, you may analyze a theoretical sinusoidal wave with a user-defined period, something already incorporated into the code. The `SineWave` will be displayed over top of the periodogram.
Roofing Filter Options: These inputs control the range of the passband for ACP to analyze. Ehlers had two versions of his highpass filters for his releases, so I included an option for you to see the obvious difference when performing a comparison of both. You may choose between 1st and 2nd order high-pass filters.
Spectral Controls: These settings control the core functionality of the spectral analysis results. You can adjust the autocorrelation lag, adjust the level of smoothing for Fourier coefficients, and control the contrast/behavior of the heatmap displaying the power spectra. I provided two color schemes by checking or unchecking a checkbox.
Dominant Cycle Options: These settings allow you to customize the various types of dominant cycle values. You can choose between floating-point and integer values, and select the rounding method used to derive the final dominantCycle values. Also, you may control the level of smoothing applied to the dominant cycle values.
DOMINANT CYCLE VALUE SELECTIONS:
External to the acs() function, the code takes a dominant cycle value returned from acs() and changes its numeric form based on a specified type and form chosen within the indicator settings. The dominant cycle value can be represented as an integer or a decimal number, depending on the attached algorithm's requirements. For example, FIR filters will require an integer while many IIR filters can use a float. The float forms can be either rounded, smoothed, or floored. If the resulting value is desired to be an integer, it can be rounded up/down or just be in an integer form, depending on how your algorithm may utilize it.
AUTOCORRELATION SPECTRUM FUNCTION BASICALLY EXPLAINED:
In the beginning of the acs() code, the population of caches for precalculated angular frequency factors and smoothing coefficients occur. By precalculating these factors/coefs only once and then storing them in an array, the indicator can save time and computational resources when performing subsequent calculations that require them later.
In the following code block, the "Calculate AutoCorrelations" is calculated for each period within the passband width. The calculation involves numerous summations of values extracted from the roofing filter. Finally, a correlation values array is populated with the resulting values, which are normalized correlation coefficients.
Moving on to the next block of code, labeled "Decompose Fourier Components", Fourier decomposition is performed on the autocorrelation coefficients. It iterates this time through the applicable period range of 6 to 49, calculating the real and imaginary parts of the Fourier components. Frequencies 6 to 49 are the primary focus of interest for this periodogram. Using the precalculated angular frequency factors, the resulting real and imaginary parts are then utilized to calculate the spectral Fourier components, which are stored in an array for later use.
The next section of code smooths the noise ridden Fourier components between the periods of 6 and 49 with a selected filter. This species also employs numerous SuperSmoothers to condition noisy Fourier components. One of the big differences is Ehlers' versions used basic EMAs in this section of code. I decided to add SuperSmoothers.
The final sections of the acs() code determines the peak power component for normalization and then computes the dominant cycle period from the smoothed Fourier components. It first identifies a single spectral component with the highest power value and then assigns it as the peak power. Next, it normalizes the spectral components using the peak power value as a denominator. It then calculates the average dominant cycle period from the normalized spectral components using Ehlers' "Center of Gravity" calculation. Finally, the function returns the dominant cycle period along with the normalized spectral components for later external use to plot the periodogram.
POST SCRIPT:
Concluding, I have to acknowledge a newly found analyst for assistance that I couldn't receive from anywhere else. For one, Claude doesn't know much about Pine, is unfortunately color blind, and can't even see the Pine reference, but it was able to intuitively shred my code with laser precise realizations. Not only that, formulating and reformulating my description needed crucial finesse applied to it, and I couldn't have provided what you have read here without that artificial insight. Finding the right order of words to convey the complexity of ACP and the elaborate accompanying content was a daunting task. No code in my life has ever absorbed so much time and hard fricking work, than what you witness here, an ACP gem cut pristinely. I'm unveiling my version of ACP for an empowering cause, in the hopes a future global army of code wielders will tether it to highly functional computational contraptions they might possess. Here is ACP fully blessed poetically with the "Power of Pine" in sublime code. ENJOY!
Bitcoin Indicator CBitcoin Indicator C is the missing part of the whole picture. It must be used together with Bitcoin Indicator B for the best results possible!
Indicator B is to find the entry on the market sharp, while the new Indicator C will help you to find the zone where it's time to look for the entry. The dots do NOT represent the start nor the end of the trend, they only show the cross of the waves. Indicator C was created to see the bigger picture of the market. You will see 3 waves on the indicator. The white wave is the main indication of the trend, however all of them should be considered together. Think about it as a painting so just step back and watch the whole picture. If you see the waves topping and start to form a downtrend it's time to find your entry on Indicator B. Also when you see waves bottoming it's time to look for the entry of the Long trade.
When all of 3 waves moving together parallel from the top to the bottom that's a strong downtrend. Opposite occurs when there is a strong uptrend on the market.
These waves were created to show unique repeating patterns, too. For example: White wave bottoming while others keep painting on the upside of the zero line. Other example if repeating waves getting lower and lower... Learn more about unique patterns on our website!
MME NimblrTA Setup v1.0Hi All,
This is a Candlestick template script to be used for identifying momentum and waves.
There are only 2 types of candles - Momentum Candles ( MC - Body height >= 50%) and Indecision Candles ( IC ).
ICs are further separated as Tiny Beast based on NimblrTAs, Candle height ratio compared to certain % Open price of the day. The % varies based on TF of the chart.
Green and Red are MCs .
IC is colored white
Tiny Beast based on Candle height is colored blue.
Tiny Beast based on Candle height + Body Height is marked $.
This setup is used to identify Waves (ascending waves, descending waves, binets, reverse binets etc) - Per Line chart, Zig Zag .
Intraday EMA setup - 5, 13, 34 is used for EMA alignment
Investment EMA setup - 5, 21, 55 is used for EMA alignment.
PSAR 0.01 setting is normally used for trailing / to check ascending or descending wave at high level.
PSAR 0.005 is additionally added to check for follow-up of move. So when PSAR 0.01 is broken, expect PSAR 0.005 to be broken. That can be a scalping target or confirmation of capturing the right trend.
This setup is used for Intraday as well as Investments. The settings have been defaulted for Intraday setup.
Honey CypherHoney Cypher Aims to do 4 things
Momentum
Trend Strength
Overbought and oversold zones
Being the most beautiful indicator you ever see
Momentum
The big yellow honey waves primary use is to see the momentum of the market, they can be used in a similar way you would use a MACD or Chaikin Money Flow
On this image you see the honey waves being plotted to the 30 minute timeframe while on the 5 minute chart to have an understanding of longer time momentum in the chart.
Trend Strength
Most tools of the indicator can be used for that but the yellow and purple slope strength lines are made specificaly for this. When you see them curl down you know trend is strengthening towards the downside.
The candle color is based on the amount of Honey waves sloping in one direction. This might be the best tool in the indicator to find Trend Strength. Bright yellow candles mean strong bears while the bright blue candles mean strong bulls.
Overbought and oversold zones
By analysing the waves on a chart you start to learn how big waves can get before a reversal or consolidation period arrives.
You can become profitable with the indicator. But to be honest, my primary focus in making this indicator was find ways to visualise alot of data in a clear and beautiful way.
You should use the indicator with some out of the box ideas instead of just trusting the signals.
examples:
Find a head and shoulders pattern on the top of a huge honey wave.
Find a bottom small wave while the others honey waves are in the opposite direction for entering a pullback.
Use the honey for direction but the yellow and purple slope line crosses for entrys.
Comment your own strategys, I made this open source to be able to get community feedback.
The Honey Cypher waves are calculated in a similar way as the MACD histogram. I've combined MACD formula with some of the lazybear formula. It looks for the distance between 2 moving averages to find trend strength. After that the end results get's smoothed out. It is very satisfying to change that as you can see the honey waves create a melting like motion on each change of smoothing.
Below a preview of the honey cypher moving average lines, all lines have a length that is based on the fibonacci number sequence. Honey cypher measures the distance between for example length 5-8 averages.
I hope this inspires coders to create very beautiful scripts.

By analysing the current curve data it is possible to notice that one or more of the curves start an up trend while others move sideway or a down trend, this is how you can have a guess where the smart money is moving from and to.
Curves available:
. Core Commodities
. T-Bond 2 Years
. T-Bond 5 Years
. T-Bond 10 Years
. T-Bond 20 Years
. T-Bond 30 years
. High Yield Corporate Bonds
. Gold
. Silver
. Bitcoin
. Dollar
What's my filling?
I'm still testing this indicator for only a week and so far still trying to understand its signs. I'm using it in conjunction with Volume Wave (VolWave) and Price Spread Wave (PSWave).
What does it do?
This indicator allows you to identify possible asset top and bottom reversals by having a prior Volatility acting among the price movement with a sequential positive (top reversal) or negative (bottom reversal) waves.
How does it work?
Everytime the wave starts showing a curved top movement (ascending price movment) or a curved bottom movement (descending price movment), it might be signing that a price reversal is on its way. It is possible to adjust the wave shape by increasing/decreasing its gradient value analysis, but it's so easy to use that most of the times no reconfiguration is needed, just add it and let it guide you.
Important to mention that the positive wave band, histogram bars and moving average line are calculate totally separete from the the negative wave.
What's my filling?
It definitely gives me a great insight into the smart money moves, which gives me the confidence to make my own moves.

Pragmatic risk managementINTRO
The indicator is calculating multiple moving averages on the value of price change %. It then combines the normalized (via arctan function) values into a single normalized value (via simple average).
The total error from the center of gravity and the angle in which the error is accumulating represented by 4 waves:
BLUE = Good for chance for price to go up
GREEN = Good chance for price to continue going up
ORANGE = Good chance for price to go down
RED = Good chance for price to continue going down
A full cycle of ORANGE\RED\BLUE\GREEN colors will ideally lead to the exact same cycle, if not, try to understand why.
NOTICE-
This indicator is calculating large time-windows so It can be heavy on your device. Tested on PC browser only.
My visual setup:
1. Add two indicators on-top of each other and merge their scales (It will help out later).
2. Zoom out price chart to see the maximum possible data.
3. Set different colors for both indicators for simple visual seperation.
4. Choose 2 different values, one as high as possible and one as low as possible.
(Possible - the indicator remains effective at distinguishing the cycle).
Manual calibration:
0. Select a fixed chart resolution (2H resolution minimum recommended).
1. Change the "mul2" parameter in ranges between 4-15 .
2. Observe the "Turning points" of price movement. (Typically when RED\GREEN are about to switch.)
2. Perform a segmentation of time slices and find cycles. No need to be exact!
3. Draw a square on price movement at place and color as the dominant wave currently inside the indicator.
This procedure should lead to a full price segmentation with easier anchoring.
[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Relative Vigor IndexLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Relative Vigor Index in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 6 on 2004.
Function
Relative Vigor Index (RVI) uses concepts dating back over three decades and also uses modern filter and digital signal processing theory to realize those concepts as a practical and useful indicator. The RVI merges the old concepts with the new technologies. The basic idea of the RVI is that prices tend to close higher than
they open in up markets and tend to close lower than they open in down markets. The vigor of the move is thus established by where the prices reside at the end of the day. To normalize the index to the daily trading range, the change in price is divided by the maximum range of prices for the day.
The RVI is an oscillator, and we are therefore only concerned with the cycle modes of the market in its use. The sharpest rate of change for a cycle is at its midpoint. Therefore, in the ascending part of the cycle we would expect the difference between the close and open to be at a maximum. This is like a derivative in calculus, where the derivative of a sinewave produces a negative cosine wave. The derivative is therefore a waveform that leads the original sinewave by a quarter cycle. Also, from calculus, integration of a sinewave over a half-cycle period results in another sinewave delayed by a quarter cycle. Summing over a half cycle is basically the same as mathematically integrating, with the result that the waveshape of the sum is delayed by a quarter wavelength relative to the input. The net result of taking the differences and summing produces an oscillator output in phase with the cyclic component of the price. It is also possible to generate a leading function if the summation window is less than a half wavelength of the Dominant Cycle. If a cycle measurement is not available, you can sum the RVI components over a fixed default period. A nominal value of 8 is suggested because this is approximately half the period of most cycles of interest.

Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
Momentum ArrowsThis simple indicators paints the Momentum based on Stochastic, RSI or WaveTrend onto the Price Chart by showing Green or Red arrows.
In the settings it can be selected which indicator is used, Stochastic is selected by default.
Length of the arrows is determined by the strength of the momentum:
Stochastic: Difference between D and K
RSI: Difference from RSI-50
WaveTrend: Difference between the Waves
(Thanks to @LazyBear for the WaveTrend inspiration)
PS:
If anyone has an idea how to conditionally change the color of the arrows, then please let me know - that would be the icing on the cake. Then it would be possible to indicate Overbought/Oversold levels with different colors.
Unfortunately it currently seems not to be possible to dynamically change the arrow colour.
WWV_LB pivotfix histogram jayy
This is a modification of LazyBear's WWV_LB which plots cumulative volume of waves. The reversal points are defined through relative closing prices. I made adjustments to the script to show waves turning on actual/true low or high pivots as opposed to the bar/candle identified in the LazyBear script. What I mean by that is that the actual/true low or high pivots are in fact the true WWV_LB pivots. The original WWV_LB script calculates cumulative volume from reversal confirmation bar to reversal confirmation bar as opposed to the true WWV_LB pivot bar to pivot bar. As such the waves can have slightly different start and end points. As such the cumulative volume can also be different from te WWV_LB script. This is because confirmation of a wave reversal can lag a few bars after the true reversal pivot bar. In the script notes, you will see the original key WWV_LB script lines that identify the true high or low pivots and confirm the wave direction has reversed. I have taken these lines from LazyBear's original script. I have included the LazyBear script within the script notes so that the original can be compared to what I have added/changed. Instead of "trendDetectionLength" I have inserted "Trend Detection Length". You can of course change the descriptor to what you wish by editing script line 33 to the original term or whatever you wish. You might also wish to set the default to the value "2" as per the original script. I have set the default to "3". This script should be used in conjunction with "WWV-LB zigzag pivot fix jayy" script which is shown on this screen for comparison.
Here is a link to the original LazyBear histogram script which can be used for comparison. The differences are subtle, however, the histograms will regularly be different by a bar or two:
The lowest panel has the original LazyBear WWV_LB script for comparison. All three scripts have been set to a Trend Detection Length of 3.jayy
GA - Value at RiskGA Value at Risk is a multifunctional tool. Its main purpose is to plot on the chart the Value at Risk . But it shows also integrated features related to the Volatility.
Value at Risk is a measure of the risk of loss for investments, given normal market conditions, in a period.
It measures and quantifies the level of financial risk. In this case, the risk is within position over a specific time frame.
Defining p as VaR, the probability of a loss greater than VaR is p, at most. Instead, the probability of loss that is less than VaR is 1-p, at least.
The VaR Breach occurs when a loss exceeds the VaR threshold .
For this case, VaR calculation uses the volatility estimation in a time interval. It defines the Probability Confidence according to the Normal Distribution. VaR is a percentile of the Normal Distribution. This is a multiplier of the Standard Deviation that define a Volatility Range.
The Normal Distribution Area around +- the Standard Deviation gives 68% of Confidence. 2 times the Standard Deviation returns a 95% of probability area. 3 time the Standard Deviation the Area returns 99.7% of Confidence.
Knowing VaR modeling, it is possible to determine the amount of a potential loss . Then, it is possible to know if there is enough capital to cover losses. In the same way, higher-than-acceptable risks forces reducing exposure in a financial instrument.
One of its practical use is to estimate the risk of an investment that is already at portfolio. Indeed, this is the purpose of the Value at Risk calculated in this script.
At the VaR Breach that investment has reached its worst scenario. Then, it can be the case to manage that investment into the balanced portfolio.
The Value at Risk does not tell when to enter the market.
Moving Averages
GA Value at Risk bases its calculations on a set of Moving Averages. Every feature of the script uses one of these Moving Averages for its algorithm.
Moving Averages from MA0 to MA8, are the core of each feature of the script.
By default, from MA0 to MA8, Moving Averages use the Fibonacci Series to define their lengths. This happens because of the power of the Golden Ratio in the market behavior.
Instead, the first moving average is an extra resource. Its purpose is to plot a Signal Line on the chart.
The script does not consider plotting every Moving Average on the chart. But it lets you enable the plotting of 7 Moving Averages (from MA0 to MA5 + Signal Line).
It is possible to select the Moving Average Formula to use in the script. This is a setting that affects every Moving Average. Then, it changes also the result of every feature of the script.
The selection is between:
Exponential Moving Average.
Simple Moving Average.
Weighted moving Average.
Simple Moving Averages and Pointers - Full Visibility
Moving Averages and Partial Visibility
The plotting of each Moving Average can be total or partial.
By default, the plotting of Moving Averages and Signal Line is partial.
When the price approaches a Moving Average a little part of the curve becomes visible. This highlights supports or resistances.
Besides, this tracking remains on the chart. Then it shows supports and resistances that the price reached during its progression.
The Partial Visibility Algorithm is a great advantage, ruling how to plot curves. It uses a parameter to set how much of the curves is to plot.
Exponential Moving Averages and Pointers - Partial Visibility
Exponential Moving Averages and Pointers - Full Visibility
Moving Averages and Pointers
As it is clear, it is not necessary to plot entire curves of Moving Averages on the chart. But it becomes relevant to plot Pointers to Moving Averages.
Indeed, the script plots horizontal segments that point to the latest Average Prices.
Every segment has a Label that shows Average Price, Length, and its related Moving Average (from MA0 to MA8). Besides, it is possible to extend the segment to right.
These pointers are a very useful automatization. They point to the Moving Averages. In this way, they show Dynamic Supports and Resistances as horizontal segments.
They are adaptive. Used together with the Volume Profile their progression approaches Edges of High Nodes.
This adaptive behavior makes easy to see when the price reaches Volume High Nodes and slows down.
Moving Average Pointers use the Partial Visibility Algorithm. In this case, the algorithm shows pointers with higher frequency than curves.
Moving Averages Pointers have:
Horizontal Segment as a Pointer with Arrow.
Label with details.
Circle to the current Average Price.
Weighted Moving Averages and Pointers - Full Visibility
Volatility Channels
Having Moving Averages, from MA0 to MA8, it is possible to plot 9 Volatility Channels.
Each Volatility Channel uses one of the Moving Averages, from MA0 to MA8.
Indeed, each Volatility Channel has the same designation of the Moving Average used.
The Standard Deviation defines the Volatility Range. It uses the length of the Moving Average related to the Volatility Channel.
The Volatility Range is unique for each Volatility Channel. In the same way, each Volatility Channel is unique because of its relation to only one Moving Average.
By default, each volatility channel has the 2 value as Standard Deviation Multiplier. This gives 95% of Confidence that the price will stay into the Volatility Range.
Using the Simple Moving Average, each Volatility Channel becomes a Bollinger Bands envelop.
Volatility Channels work very well even using Exponential or Weighted Moving Averages.
MA0 - Volatility Channel
Volatility Channels - From MA0 to MA8
Value at Risk (VaR)
GA Value at Risk plots VaR according to the volatility. The VaR plotting follows the Trend Momentum or Buying-Selling Waves.
By default, VaR follows the Trend Momentum by 2 times the Standard Deviation of MA0. Where MA0 is the first Moving Average and Volatility Channel of the set.
Besides, by default, the calculation of the Value at Risk is adaptive. It does not follow the Volatility Channel Bands. But it changes according to the fast reaction of the price into the Volatility Range.
By default, VaR follows the main momentum even if the price is moving in opposition to it. This occurs as long as the Trend Momentum persists.
In the settings box, It is possible to select the following of the latest Buying Wave or Selling Wave.
In this case, VaR changes according to the change of Buying Wave or Selling Wave. This means that, on these conditions, VaR follows main swings. Then it follows the weakening and the strengthening of the trend momentum as long as it persists.
The plotting of the Value at Risk can show these features:
Red cycle to show the Value at Risk at the current price.
Look Back Red Line that shows the progression of the Value at Risk.
Label with details.
MA0 - Value at Risk - Not Adaptive
MA0 - Value at Risk - Adaptive
It is possible to use a different Moving Average and Volatility Channel from the set. This affects the calculation and the plotting of the Value at Risk. In this way, the algorithm return the Value at Risk for the short, middle, or long-term.
Then, you can get the Value at Risk for that Financial Instrument, calculated for ~1 year or more so as for 1 month.
The Value at Risk does not tell you when to enter the market. Besides, it does not show you that the trend is changing.
MA3 - Value at Risk - Adaptive
Value at Profit (VaP)
The Value at Profit has a descriptive purpose. It points the Volatility Band that is opposite to the Value at Risk.
I chose Value at Profit as a designation for this feature. It does not tell you where to exit the market.
But is shows what the price progression is pointing on. This happens following the switching between Volatility Ranges.
The VaP follows the Volatility Band where the price tends to converge.
An outperforming or underperforming price is running faster than the average trend. Then when the price runs enough to converge to the Volatility Band, it is over extended or under extended.
At these conditions, the increased buying or selling pressure affects the price behavior. This slows down the price progression.
The Algorithm behind the Value at Profit is adaptive. Then the pointer jumps up and down the Volatility Bands of the 9 Volatility Channels. This occurs according to the price progression, following the switching between Volatility Ranges.
So, the VaP points a Volatility Band as long as the price can have chances to converges on it. Instead, when the price has chances to exceed the Volatility Band, the VaP points to the next one.
The plotting of the Value at Profit occurs enabling its Label with details.
Value at Profit - MA0 Volatility Channel Upper Band
Value at Profit - MA6 Volatility Channel Upper Band
Price Extension
When the price runs far away from the average trend price, GA Value at Risk can plot the price extension.
It shows the distance in percentage of the price from a Moving Average of the set. This tends to highlight conditions where the price is over or under extended.
An overbought or oversold condition precedes the shortening of the Trust. It is a cause of the hesitation of the price to continue its progression. This includes also Climactic Points and Signs of Dominance.
The Price Extension plotting uses a variation of the Partial Visibility Algorithm. It plots the Price Extension Arrow only when there are specific volatility conditions.
When the Partial Visibility is set to 0, the Price Extension Arrow is always visible on the chart.
The plotting of the Price Extension includes a Label with details.
Over Extension - The Price is Outperforming MA0
Under Extension - The Price is Underperforming MA0
Price Extension Coloring for Bars and Line Chart
GA Value at Risk lets you enable the coloring of vertical charts. Green and Red colors mark the over and under extended price on bars, candle sticks, and also on the Line Chart.
The Price Extension Algorithm colors Bars and Line Chart by a momentum function.
Indeed, the coloring happens following Relative Strength Index or Bollinger Bands %B.
These 2 Momentum functions are different. Indeed, they color the chart according to the purpose of their curves.
Coloring the Line Chart, it is necessary to put on front the script visibility.
Overbought and Oversold Conditions on Line Chart by Bollinger Bands %B
Overbought and Oversold Conditions on Candlesticks Chart by Relative Strength Index

Weis zig zag vol JayyI have had a few requests to publish the script I used here: in May 2015. I have been reluctant because it was a very cumbersome script. However, for those few people who actually want to play with this script here it is. I have cleaned it up to make the script more usable. Read my notes associated with "Weis Wave Jayy" for more details on the use of the Weis wave. There are some additional inputs to show the correct volume range on the screen. I think a short video is the best way to convey the information.
The traditional way of displaying Weis Wave as developed by David Weis is to use price. This is a bit of a tricky concept. I hope my video helps to clarify.
In a nutshell to use: open the script. The default is the traditional method used by Weis. Change the value to a wave size of interest in the "Select Weis Wave size" dialogue box. To use "What percent of avg price to set wave size" first click on "Use percent of avg price to set wave size". To use "What percent of last leg to determine reverse" click on "Use percent of last leg?" and be sure that "Use percent of avg price to set wave size" is unclicked.
To display volume correctly as three digits it is necessary to take a number such as 176,895,570 to value that can be displayed within three digits. The number must also be relative to other numbers in the field. If the highest volume on the page is: 2,654,763,889 and with only three numbers available to display the result. The values shown must be 18 and 265 respectively so that the relative magnitudes are understood. Therefore, all numbers in the field of view must be truncated by the same factor.
To do this make sure that "input multiplication factor to show volume must be non zero, if zero multiplication factors shown " is set at 0. Then click on ok at the bottom of the dialogue box. you should see various numbers across the screen each at a pivot point. Scan and select the highest number visible. I some red zeros are visible you should go back to the dialogue box and choose a smaller wave size.
Go back to the dialogue box and replace the 0 in the "input multiplication factor to show volume must be non zero, if zero multiplication factors shown " box with the value you have chosen, Click ok. You should now see the wave with volume. Represented as 1, 2 or 3 numbers read vertically.
Lastly, you can toggle between what I call a lagged wave or a no lag version using "Show weis wave (lagged pivots) unclick to show the no lag version?". What does this mean? The no lag version has a wave that turns at the actual top or bottom. However, price lags the turning point. Price is printed above or below the point at which a new wave is confirmed. What I mean by this is as follows. Suppose that closing prices are in a downward wave over several bars. Each new bar is examined relative to the "Weis wave size". Suppose the current bar closes at a new low, within the current down wave, at $30.00. If the Weis wave size is $0.10 then the algorithm will remember the $30.00 close and compare it to the close of the next bar. If the price goes lower to $29.99, for example, that is the new low and price is continuing down. If price climbs back up to a close of $30.11 then because price has moved more than $0.10 (the Weis wave size) then that is a wave reversal with a new wave starting up.
However if instead of rising by 11 cents it rose only 5 cents $30.05. Since price did not rise 10 cents The wave is still in a downward trend and the trend is not reversed. It is a bit in limbo. As long a closing price on the ensuing bars does not close at or below $30.00 or at or above $30.10 the wave remains in limbo. Suppose price closes for 5 bars between $30.00 and $30.10 and then on the 6th bar closes at or below $30.00. In that case, the downward trend is confirmed and the wave continues. The bars that closed in limbo are part of the downward trend. On the other hand, if the 6th bar close is 30.11 this means that a trend reversal is confirmed - now the trend is up. The turning point of the wave is 6 bars before at the $30.00 closing bar.
As such, turning points of waves can take some time to be confirmed to reverse in direction. Turning points can be 1, 2, 3 or more bars ahead of wave confirmation. A nice straight line for waves connecting highs and lows as used by Weis is not possible since series are not allowed in the plot statement for offsets. As such price is plotted above or below the point at which the wave was confirmed not the actual turning point. The Weis wave turning points plot at the same place as price. The "no lag" wave plot is not a straight line but does show the actual turning points. The volume is the volume for the actual turning point, not the point at which it is plotted.
The smaller the "Weis wave size" the less the lag will be.
If you have questions message me.

Rate of Change HistogramExplanation of Modifications
Converting ROC to Histogram:
Original ROC: The ROC is calculated as roc = 100 * (source - source ) / source , plotted as a line oscillating around zero.
Modification: Instead of plotting roc as a line, it’s now plotted as a histogram using style=plot.style_columns. This makes the ROC values visually resemble the MACD histogram, with bars extending above or below the zero line based on momentum.
Applying MACD’s Four-Color Scheme:
Logic: The histogram’s color is determined by:
Above Zero (roc >= 0): Bright green (#26A69A) if ROC is rising (roc > roc ), light green (#B2DFDB) if falling (roc < roc ).
Below Zero (roc < 0): Bright red (#FF5252) if ROC is falling (roc < roc ), light red (#FFCDD2) if rising (roc > roc ).
Implementation: Used the exact color logic and hex codes from the MACD code, applied to the ROC histogram. This highlights momentum ebbs (falling ROC, fading waves) and flows (rising ROC, strengthening waves).
Removing Signal Line:
Unlike the previous attempt, no signal line is added. The histogram is purely the ROC value, ensuring it directly reflects price change momentum without additional smoothing, making it faster and more responsive to pulse waves, as you indicated ROC performs better than other oscillators.
Alert Conditions:
Added alerts to match the MACD’s logic, triggering when the ROC histogram crosses the zero line:
Rising to Falling: When roc >= 0 and roc < 0, signaling a potential wave peak (e.g., end of Wave 3 or C).
Falling to Rising: When roc <= 0 and roc > 0, indicating a potential wave bottom (e.g., start of Wave 1 or rebound).
These alerts help identify transitions in 3-4 wave pulse patterns.
Plotting:
Histogram: Plotted as columns (plot.style_columns) with the four-color scheme, directly representing ROC momentum.
Zero Line: Kept the gray zero line (#787B86) for reference, consistent with the MACD.
Removed ROC Line/Signal Line: Since you want the ROC to act as the histogram itself, no additional lines are plotted.
Inputs:
Retained the original length (default 9) and source (default close) inputs for consistency.
Removed signal-related inputs (e.g., signal_length, sma_signal) as they’re not needed for a pure ROC histogram.
How This ROC Histogram Works for Wave Pulses
Wave Alignment:
Above Zero (Bullish Momentum): Positive ROC bars indicate flows (e.g., impulse Waves 1, 3, or rebounds in Wave B/C). Bright green bars show accelerating momentum (strong pulses), while light green bars suggest fading momentum (potential wave tops).
Below Zero (Bearish Momentum): Negative ROC bars indicate ebbs (e.g., corrective Waves 2, 4, A, or C). Bright red bars show increasing bearish momentum (strong pullbacks), while light red bars suggest slowing declines (potential wave bottoms).
3-4 Wave Pulses:
In a 3-wave A-B-C correction: Wave A (down) shows bright red bars (falling ROC), Wave B (up) shows bright/light green bars (rising ROC), and Wave C (down) shifts back to red bars.
In a 4-wave consolidation: Alternating green/red bars highlight the rhythmic ebbs and flows as momentum oscillates.
Timing:
Zero-line crossovers mark wave transitions (e.g., from Wave 2 to Wave 3).
Color changes (e.g., bright to light green) signal momentum shifts within waves, helping identify pulse peaks/troughs.
Advantages Over MACD:
The ROC histogram is more responsive than the MACD histogram because ROC directly measures price change percentage, while MACD relies on moving average differences, which introduce lag. This makes the ROC histogram better for capturing rapid 3-4 wave pulses, as you noted.
Example Usage
For a stock with 3-4 wave pulses on a 5-minute chart:
Wave 1 (Flow): ROC rises above zero, histogram turns bright green (rising momentum), indicating a strong bullish pulse.
Wave 2 (Ebb): ROC falls below zero, histogram shifts to bright red (falling momentum), signaling a corrective pullback.
Wave 3 (Flow): ROC crosses back above zero, histogram becomes bright green again, confirming a powerful pulse.
Wave 4 (Ebb): ROC dips slightly, histogram turns light green (falling momentum above zero) or light red (rising momentum below zero), indicating consolidation.
Alerts trigger on zero-line crosses (e.g., from Wave 2 to Wave 3), helping time trades.
Settings Recommendations
Default (length=9): Works well for most time frames, balancing sensitivity and smoothness.
Intraday Pulses: Use length=5 or length=7 for faster signals on 5-minute or 15-minute charts.
Daily Charts: Try length=12 or length=14 for broader wave cycles.
Testing: Apply to a stock with clear wave patterns (e.g., tech stocks like AAPL or TSLA) and adjust length to match the pulse frequency you observe.
Notes
Confirmation: Pair the ROC histogram with price action (e.g., Fibonacci retracements, support/resistance) to validate wave counts, as momentum oscillators can be noisy in choppy markets.
Divergences: Watch for divergences (e.g., price makes a higher high, but ROC histogram bars are lower) to spot wave reversals, especially at Wave 3 or C ends.
Comparison to MACD: The ROC histogram is faster and more direct, making it ideal for short-term pulse waves, but it may be more volatile, so use with technical levels for precision.

Dragon Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Dragon Detector🔵 Introduction
The Dragon Harmonic Pattern is one of the technical analysis tools that assists traders in identifying Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ). Resembling an "M" or "W" shape, this pattern is recognized in financial markets as a method for predicting bullish and bearish trends. By leveraging precise Fibonacci ratios and measuring price movements, traders can use this pattern to forecast market trends with high accuracy.
The Dragon Harmonic Pattern is built on the XABCD structure, where each point plays a significant role in shaping and forecasting price movements. Point X marks the beginning of the trend, representing the initial price movement. Point A indicates the first retracement, usually falling within the 0.380 to 0.620 range of the XA wave.
Next, point B signals the second retracement, which lies within 0.200 to 0.400 of the AB wave. Point C, acting as the hump of the pattern, is generally located within 0.800 to 1.100 of the XA wave. Finally, point D represents the endpoint of the pattern and the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ), where the primary price reversal occurs.
In bullish scenarios, the Dragon Pattern indicates a reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend, where prices move upward from point D. Conversely, in bearish scenarios, prices decline after reaching point D. Accurate identification of this pattern through Fibonacci ratio analysis and PRZ examination can significantly increase the success rate of trades, enabling traders to adjust their strategies based on key market levels such as 0.618 or 1.100.
Due to its high accuracy in identifying Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ) and its alignment with Fibonacci ratios, the Dragon Harmonic Pattern is considered one of the most popular tools in technical analysis. Traders can use this pattern to pinpoint entry and exit points with greater confidence while minimizing trading risks.

🔵 How to Use
The Dragon Harmonic Pattern indicator helps traders identify bullish and bearish patterns in the market, allowing them to capitalize on available trading opportunities. By analyzing Fibonacci ratios and the XABCD structure, the indicator highlights Potential Reversal Zones (PRZ).
🟣 Bullish Dragon Pattern
In the Bullish Dragon Pattern, the price transitions from a downtrend to an uptrend after reaching point D. At this stage, points X, A, B, C, and D must be carefully identified.
Fibonacci ratios for these points are as follows: Point A should fall within 0.380 to 0.620 of the XA wave, point B within 0.200 to 0.400 of the AB wave, and point C within 0.800 to 1.100 of the XA wave.
When the price reaches point D, traders should look for bullish signals such as reversal candlesticks or increased trading volume to enter a buy position. The take-profit level can be set near the previous price high or based on the 1.272 Fibonacci ratio of the XA wave, while the stop-loss should be placed slightly below point D.
🟣 Bearish Dragon Pattern
In the Bearish Dragon Pattern, the price shifts from an uptrend to a downtrend after reaching point D. In this pattern, points X, A, B, C, and D must also be identified. Fibonacci ratios for these points are as follows: Point A should fall within 0.380 to 0.620 of the XA wave, point B within 0.200 to 0.400 of the AB wave, and point C within 0.800 to 1.100 of the XA wave.
Upon reaching point D, bearish signals such as reversal candlesticks or decreasing trading volume indicate the opportunity to enter a sell position. The take-profit level can be set near the previous price low or based on the 1.272 Fibonacci ratio of the XA wave, while the stop-loss should be placed slightly above point D.
By combining the Dragon Harmonic Pattern indicator with precise Fibonacci ratio analysis, traders can identify key opportunities while minimizing risks and improving their decision-making in both bullish and bearish market conditions.

- Signal aggregation : Combines signals from multiple different 📡 Signal Providers, each of which can be tuned and adjusted independently.
- Decaying function : Utilises advanced decaying functions to model the diminishing effect of signals over time, ensuring that recent signals have more weight. In addition to the decaying effect, the "quality" of the original signals (e.g. a "strong" GDM from WaveTrend 4D ) are accounted for as well.
- Flux confluence mechanism : The aggregation of all decaying functions form the "Flux", which is the core signal measurement of the Flux Composer. Multiple mechanisms are available for creating the Flux and effectively using it for actionable trading signals.
- Visualisation : Provides detailed visualisation options to help users understand and tune the contributions of individual Signal Providers and their decaying functions.
- Backtesting : The 🧬 Flux Composer is a core component of the TradingView suite of the 🌸 GoemonYae Trading System (GYTS) 🌸. It connects multiple 📡 Signal Providers, such as the WaveTrend 4D, and processes their signals to produce a unified "Flux". This Flux can then be used by the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" for backtesting and trade automation.
🌸 ------ 2️⃣ --- FLUX COMPOSER'S FEATURES --- 2️⃣ ------ 🌸
Let's delve into more details...
💮 1. Multi Signal Provider support
Using the name of the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" as an analogy: Imagine a symphony where each instrument plays its own unique part, contributing to the overall harmony. The Flux Composer operates similarly, integrating multiple Signal Providers to create a comprehensive and robust trading signal -- the "Flux". Currently, it supports up to four streams from the WaveTrend 4D's ’s Gradient Divergence Measure (GDM) and another four streams from the Quantile Median Cross (QMC). These can be either four "Professional Edition" Signal Providers or eight "Community Editions".
Note that the GDM includes 2 different continuous signals and the QMC 3 different continuous signals (from different frequencies). This means that the Community Edition can handle 2*2 + 2*3 = 10 different continuous signals and the Professional Edition as much as 20.
As GYTS evolves, more Signal Providers will be added; at the moment of releasing the Flux Composer, only WaveTrend 4D is publicly available.
💮 2. Advanced decaying functions
A trading signal can be relevant today, less relevant tomorrow, and irrelevant in a week's time. In other words, its relevance diminishes, or decays , over time. The Flux Composer utilises decaying functions that ensure that recent signals carry more weight, while older signals fade away. This is crucial for accurate signal processing. The intensity and decay settings allow for precise control, allowing emphasising certain signals based on their strength and relevance over time. On top of that, unlike binary signals ("buy now"), the Flux Composer utilises the actual values from the Signal Providers, differentiating between the exact quality of signals, and thus offering a detailed representation of the trading landscape. We will illustrate this in a further section.
💮 3. Customisable Flux confluence mechanisms
Another core component of the Flux Composer is the ability of intelligently combining the decaying functions. It offers four sophisticated confluence mechanisms: Amplitude Compression, Accentuated Amplitude Compression, Trigonometric, and GYTSynthesis. Each mechanism has its unique way of processing the Flux, tailored to different trading needs. For instance, the Amplitude Compression method scales the Flux based on recent values, much like the Stochastic Oscillator, while the Trigonometric method uses smooth functions to reduce outliers’ impact. The GYTSynthesis is a proprietary method, striking a balance between signal strength and discriminative power.
We'll discuss this in more detail in the User Guide section.
💮 4. Actionable trading experience
While the mathematical abilities might seem overwhelming, the goal of the Flux Composer is to transform complex signal data into actionable trading signals. When the Flux reaches certain thresholds, it generates clear bullish or bearish signals, making it easy for traders to interpret. The inclusion of upper and lower thresholds (UT and LT) helps in identifying strong signals visually and should be a familiar behaviour similar to how many other indicators operate. Furthermore, the Flux Composer can plot trading signals directly on the oscillator, showing triangle shapes for buy or sell signals. This visual aid is complemented by the possibility to setup TradingView alerts.
💮 5. Filtering options
The Professional Edition also offers filtering options to possibly further improve the quality of Flux signals. Signal streams can be divided into “Signal Flux” and “Filter Flux.” The Filter Flux acts as a gatekeeper, ensuring that only signals meeting the Filter's criteria (which consist of similar UT/LT thresholds) are considered for trading. This dual-layer approach enhances the reliability of trading signals, reducing the chances of false positives.
💮 6. User-friendly experience
GYTS is all about sophisticated, robust methods but also "elegance". One of the interpretations of the latter, is that the users' experience is very important. Despite the Flux Composer's mathematical underpinnings, it offers intuitive settings that with omprehensive tooltips to help with a smooth setup process. For those looking to fine-tune their signals, the Flux Composer allows the visualisation of individual decaying functions. This feature helps users understand the impact of each setting and make informed adjustments. Additionally, the background of the chart can be coloured to indicate the trading direction suggested by the Filter Flux, providing an at-a-glance overview of market conditions.
💮 7. Upgrades compared to Community Edition
Number of signal streams -- At the moment of writing, the Professional Edition works with 4x GDM and 4x QMC signal streams from WaveTrend 4D Signal Provider , while Community Edition (CE) Flux Composer (FC) only works with 2x GDM and 2x QMC signal streams.
Flux confluence mechanism -- CE includes the Amplitude Compression and Trigonometric confluence mechanisms, while the Pro Edition also includes the Accentuated Amplitude Compression and the GYTSynthesis mechanisms.
Signal streams as filters -- The Pro Edition can use Signal Providers as filters.
🌸 ------ 3️⃣ --- USER GUIDE --- 3️⃣ ------ 🌸
💮 1. Selecting Signal Providers
The Flux Composer’s foundation lies in its Signal Providers. When starting with the Flux Composer, using a single Signal Provider can already provide significant value due to the nature of decaying functions. For instance, the WaveTrend 4D signal provider includes up to 5 signal types (GDM and QMC in different frequencies) in a single direction (long/short). Moreover, the various confluence mechanisms that enhance the resulting Flux result in improved discrimination between weak and strong signals. This approach is akin to ensemble learning in machine learning, where multiple models are combined to improve predictive performance.
While using a single Signal Provider is beneficial, the true power of the Flux Composer is realised with multiple Signal Providers. Here are two general approaches to selecting Signal Providers:
Diverse Behaviours
Use Signal Providers with different behaviours, such as WaveTrend 4D on various assets/timeframes or entirely different Signal Providers. This approach leverages diversification to achieve robustness, rooted in the principle that varied sources enhance the overall signal quality. To explain this with an analogy, this strategy aligns with the theory of diversification in portfolio management, where combining uncorrelated assets reduces overall risk. Similarly, combining uncorrelated signals can mitigate the risk of signal failure. A practical example can be integrating a mean-reversion signal with a trend-following signal -- these can balance each other out, providing more stable outputs over different market conditions.
Enhancing a Single Provider
If you consider a particular Signal Provider highly effective, you could improve its robustness by using multiple instances with slight variations. These variations could include different sources (e.g., close, HL2, HLC3), data providers (same asset across different brokers/exchanges), or parameter adjustments. This method mirrors Monte Carlo simulations, often used in risk management and derivative pricing, which involve running many simulations with varied inputs to estimate the probability of different outcomes. By applying similar principles, the strategy becomes less susceptible to overfitting, ensuring the signals are not overly dependent on specific data conditions.
💮 2. Connecting Signal Providers to the Flux Composer
Moving on to practicalities: how do you connect Signal Providers with the Flux Composer? You may have noticed that when you open the drawdown of a data source in a TradingView indicator (with "open", "high", "low", etc.), you also see names from other indicators on your chart. We call these "streams", and the Signal Providers are designed such that they output this stream in a way that the Flux Composer can interpret it. Thus, to connect a Signal Provider with the Flux Composer, you should first have that Signal Provider on your chart. Obviously you should set it up an a way that it seems to provide good signals. After that, in the Data Stream dropdown in the Flux Composer, you can select the stream that is outputted by your Signal Provider. This will always be with a prefix of "🔗 STREAM" (after the Signal Provider's indicator name). See the chart below.
There is one important nuance: when you have multiple (similar) Signal Providers on your chart, it may be hard to select the correct data stream in the Flux Composer as the names of the streams keep repeating when you use identical indicators. So be sure to be attentive as you might end up using the same signals multiple times.
Also, the Signal Providers have an "Indicator name" parameter (and another parameter to repeat this name) that is handy to use when you have multiple Signal Providers on your screen. It is handy to give names that describe the unique settings of that Signal Provider so you can better differentiate what you are looking at on your screen.
💮 3. Understanding the Flux
Let's understand how the Signal Provider's signals are processed. In the chart below, you see we have one Signal Provider (WaveTrend 4D) connected to the Flux Composer and that it gives a bearish QMC signal. The Flux Composer converts this into a decaying function. You can show these functions per Signal Provider when the option "Show decaying function of Signal Provider" is enabled (as it is in the chart).
In our opinion, of crucial importance is the ability to process the quality of signals, rather than just any signal. In mathematical terms, we are interested in continuous signals as these provide a spectrum of values. These signals can reflect varying degrees of market sentiment or trend strength, offering richer information than binary signals, which offer only two states (e.g., buy/sell). Especially in the context of the Flux Composer, where you aggregate multiple signals, it makes a big difference whether you combine 10 weak signals or 10 strong signals. To illustrate this principle, look at the chart below where there are 4 signals of different strengths. As you can see, each of the signals affects the Flux with different intensities.
💮 4. Tuning the decaying functions
As previously mentioned, the decaying functions are a way to give more importance to recent signals while allowing older ones to fade away gradually. This mimics the natural way we assess information, giving more weight to recent events. The decaying functions in the Flux Composer are highly customisable while remaining easy to use. You can adjust the initial intensity , which sets the starting strength of a signal, and the decay rate, which determines how quickly this signal diminishes over time. Let's look at specific examples.
If we add 3 Flux Composers on the chart, connect the same Signal Provider, keep all settings the same with one exception, we get the chart below. Here we have changed the "intensity" parameter of the specific signal. As you can see, the decaying functions are different. The intensity determines the initial strength of the decayed function. Adjusting the intensity allows you to emphasise certain signal types based on their perceived reliability or importance.
Let's now keep the intensity the same ("normal"), but change the "decay" parameter. As you can see in the image below, the decay controls how quickly the signal’s strength diminishes over time. By adjusting the decay, you can model the longevity of the signal’s impact. A faster decay means the signal loses its influence quickly, while a slower decay means it remains relevant for a longer period.
So how do multiple signals interact? You can see this as a simple "stacking of decaying functions" (although there is more to it, see next section). In the chart below we different strenghts of signals and different decay rates to illustrate how the Flux is constructed.
Hopefully this helps with developing some intuition how signals are converted to decaying functions, how you can control them, and how the Flux is constructed. When tuning these parameters, use the visualisation options to see how individual decaying functions contribute to the overall Flux. This helps in understanding and refining the parameters to achieve the desired trading signal behaviour.
💮 5. Choosing Flux confluence mechanism
While we mentioned that the Flux is a "stacking of individual decaying functions", in the back-end, that is not exactly that simple. Like previously mentioned, for GYTS, "elegance" is very important. One of the interpretations is "user friendliness" and the Flux confluence mechanism is one of the essential developments for this characteristic. The Flux confluence mechanism is critical in synthesising the aggregated signals into the Flux. The choice of mechanism affects how the signals are combined and the resulting trading signals. The Professional Edition offers four distinct mechanisms, each with its strengths.
The Amplitude Compression mechanism is intuitive, scaling the Flux based on recent values, intuitively not unlike the method of the well-known Stochastic Oscillator. The Accentuated Amplitude Compression method takes this a step further, giving more weight to strong Flux values. The Trigonometric mechanism smooths the Flux and reduces the impact of outliers, providing a balanced approach. Finally, the GYTSynthesis mechanism, a proprietary approach, balances signal strength and discriminative power, making it easier to tune and generalise.
It's difficult to convey the workings of the Flux confluence mechanism in a chart, but let's take the opportunity to show how the Flux would look like when connecting both one WaveTrend 4D Signal Provider signals to four Flux Composers with default settings, except the Flux confluence mechanism:
You may notice subtle differences between the four methods. They react differently to different values and their overall shape is slightly be different. The Amplitude Compression is more "pointy" and GYTSynthesis doesn't react to low values. There are many nuances, especially in combination with tuning the sensitivity and upper/lower threshold (UT/LT) parameters.
💮 6. Choosing sensitivity
Speaking of the sensitivity , this parameters fine-tunes how responsive the Flux is to the input signals. Higher sensitivity results in more pronounced responses, leading to more frequent trading signals. Lower sensitivity makes the Flux less responsive, resulting in fewer but potentially more reliable signals.
You might think that changing the upper/lower threshold (UT/LT) parameters would be equivalent, but that's not the case. The sensitivity In case of the Amplitude Compression mechanisms, changing the sensitivity would change the relative Flux shape over time, and with the Trigonometric and GYTSynthesis mechanisms, the Flux shape itself (independent of time) would change. In other words, these are all good parameters for tuning.
💮 7. Utilising the filtering options
When choosing the signal stream of a Signal Provider, you can also change the default "Signal" category of that Signal Provider to a "Filter". In the example below, two Signal Providers are connected; the second is set as a filter. You can see that a second row of a Flux is shown in the Flux Composer (this visualisation can be disabled), corresponding with the signals of the second Signal Provider.
Logically, only when the Filter Flux gives a signal in a certain direction, signals from the regular Signal Flux are registered. Generally speaking, for this use case it is handy to set the thresholds for the Filter Flux low and possibly to decrease the decay rate so that the filtering is active for a long enough time.
💮 8. Interpreting the Flux for trading signals
Lastly, the Signal Flux gives buy and sell signals when it crosses the upper/lower thresholds (UT/LT), when the filter allows it (if enabled). This can be visualised with the triangles as you may have seen in the charts in the previous sections. For people using TradingView's alerts -- these would work too out of the box. And finally, for backtesting and possibly trade automation, we will have the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" that connects with the Flux Composer.

Currently, it supports up to two streams from the WaveTrend 4D’s Gradient Divergence Measure (GDM) and another two streams from the WaveTrend 4D's Quantile Median Cross (QMC) .
Note that the GDM includes 2 different continuous signals and the QMC 3 different continuous signals (from different frequencies). This means that the Community Edition can handle 2*2 + 2*3 = 10 different continuous signals.
As GYTS evolves, more Signal Providers will be added; at the moment of releasing the Flux Composer, only WaveTrend 4D with GDM and with QMC are publicly available.
💮 2. Advanced decaying functions
A trading signal can be relevant today, less relevant tomorrow, and irrelevant in a week's time. In other words, its relevance diminishes, or decays , over time. The Flux Composer utilises decaying functions that ensure that recent signals carry more weight, while older signals fade away. This is crucial for accurate signal processing. The intensity and decay settings allow for precise control, allowing emphasising certain signals based on their strength and relevance over time. On top of that, unlike binary signals ("buy now"), the Flux Composer utilises the actual values from the Signal Providers, differentiating between the exact quality of signals, and thus offering a detailed representation of the trading landscape. We will illustrate this in a further section.
💮 3. Customisable Flux confluence mechanisms
Another core component of the Flux Composer is the ability of intelligently combining the decaying functions. It offers two sophisticated confluence mechanisms: Amplitude Compression and Trigonometric. Each mechanism has its unique way of processing the Flux, tailored to different trading needs. The Amplitude Compression method scales the Flux based on recent values, much like the Stochastic Oscillator, while the Trigonometric method uses smooth functions to reduce outliers’ impact We'll discuss this in more detail in the User Guide section.
💮 4. Actionable trading experience
While the mathematical abilities might seem overwhelming, the goal of the Flux Composer is to transform complex signal data into actionable trading signals. When the Flux reaches certain thresholds, it generates clear bullish or bearish signals, making it easy for traders to interpret. The inclusion of upper and lower thresholds (UT and LT) helps in identifying strong signals visually and should be a familiar behaviour similar to how many other indicators operate. Furthermore, the Flux Composer can plot trading signals directly on the oscillator, showing triangle shapes for buy or sell signals. This visual aid is complemented by the possibility to setup TradingView alerts.
💮 5. User-friendly experience
GYTS is all about sophisticated, robust methods but also "elegance". One of the interpretations of the latter, is that the users' experience is very important. Despite the Flux Composer's mathematical underpinnings, it offers intuitive settings that with omprehensive tooltips to help with a smooth setup process. For those looking to fine-tune their signals, the Flux Composer allows the visualisation of individual decaying functions. This feature helps users understand the impact of each setting and make informed adjustments.

💮 1. Selecting Signal Providers
The Flux Composer’s foundation lies in its Signal Providers. When starting with the Flux Composer, using a single Signal Provider can already provide significant value due to the nature of decaying functions. For instance, the WaveTrend 4D signal provider includes up to two GDM and three QMC signals in a single direction (long/short). Moreover, the various confluence mechanisms that enhance the resulting Flux result in improved discrimination between weak and strong signals. This approach is akin to ensemble learning in machine learning, where multiple models are combined to improve predictive performance.
While using a single Signal Provider is beneficial, the true power of the Flux Composer is realised with multiple Signal Providers. Here are two general approaches to selecting Signal Providers:
Diverse Behaviours
Use Signal Providers with different behaviours, such as WaveTrend 4D on various assets/timeframes or entirely different Signal Providers. This approach leverages diversification to achieve robustness, rooted in the principle that varied sources enhance the overall signal quality. To explain this with an analogy, this strategy aligns with the theory of diversification in portfolio management, where combining uncorrelated assets reduces overall risk. Similarly, combining uncorrelated signals can mitigate the risk of signal failure. A practical example can be integrating a mean-reversion signal with a trend-following signal -- these can balance each other out, providing more stable outputs over different market conditions.
Enhancing a Single Provider
If you consider a particular Signal Provider highly effective, you could improve its robustness by using multiple instances with slight variations. These variations could include different sources (e.g., close, HL2, HLC3), data providers (same asset across different brokers/exchanges), or parameter adjustments. This method mirrors Monte Carlo simulations, often used in risk management and derivative pricing, which involve running many simulations with varied inputs to estimate the probability of different outcomes. By applying similar principles, the strategy becomes less susceptible to overfitting, ensuring the signals are not overly dependent on specific data conditions.
💮 2. Connecting Signal Providers to the Flux Composer
Moving on to practicalities: how do you connect Signal Providers with the Flux Composer? You may have noticed that when you open the drawdown of a data source in a TradingView indicator (with "open", "high", "low", etc.), you also see names from other indicators on your chart. We call these "streams", and the Signal Providers are designed such that they output this stream in a way that the Flux Composer can interpret it. Thus, to connect a Signal Provider with the Flux Composer, you should first have that Signal Provider on your chart. Obviously you should set it up an a way that it seems to provide good signals. After that, in the Data Stream dropdown in the Flux Composer, you can select the stream that is outputted by your Signal Provider. This will always be with a prefix of "🔗 STREAM" (after the Signal Provider's indicator name). See the chart below.
There is one important nuance: when you have multiple (similar) Signal Providers on your chart, it may be hard to select the correct data stream in the Flux Composer as the names of the streams keep repeating when you use identical indicators. So be sure to be attentive as you might end up using the same signals multiple times.
Also, the Signal Providers have an "Indicator name" parameter (and another parameter to repeat this name) that is handy to use when you have multiple Signal Providers on your screen. It is handy to give names that describe the unique settings of that Signal Provider so you can better differentiate what you are looking at on your screen.
💮 3. Understanding the Flux
Let's understand how the Signal Provider's signals are processed. In the chart below, you see we have one Signal Provider (WaveTrend 4D) connected to the Flux Composer and that it gives a bearish QMC signal. The Flux Composer converts this into a decaying function. You can show these functions per Signal Provider when the option "Show decaying function of Signal Provider" is enabled (as it is in the chart).
In our opinion, of crucial importance is the ability to process the quality of signals, rather than just any signal. In mathematical terms, we are interested in continuous signals as these provide a spectrum of values. These signals can reflect varying degrees of market sentiment or trend strength, offering richer information than binary signals, which offer only two states (e.g., buy/sell). Especially in the context of the Flux Composer, where you aggregate multiple signals, it makes a big difference whether you combine 10 weak signals or 10 strong signals. To illustrate this principle, look at the chart below where there are 4 signals of different strengths. As you can see, each of the signals affects the Flux with different intensities.
💮 4. Tuning the decaying functions
As previously mentioned, the decaying functions are a way to give more importance to recent signals while allowing older ones to fade away gradually. This mimics the natural way we assess information, giving more weight to recent events. The decaying functions in the Flux Composer are highly customisable while remaining easy to use. You can adjust the initial intensity , which sets the starting strength of a signal, and the decay rate, which determines how quickly this signal diminishes over time. Let's look at specific examples.
If we add 3 Flux Composers on the chart, connect the same Signal Provider, keep all settings the same with one exception, we get the chart below. Here we have changed the "intensity" parameter of the specific signal. As you can see, the decaying functions are different. The intensity determines the initial strength of the decayed function. Adjusting the intensity allows you to emphasise certain signal types based on their perceived reliability or importance.
Let's now keep the intensity the same ("normal"), but change the "decay" parameter. As you can see in the image below, the decay controls how quickly the signal’s strength diminishes over time. By adjusting the decay, you can model the longevity of the signal’s impact. A faster decay means the signal loses its influence quickly, while a slower decay means it remains relevant for a longer period.
So how do multiple signals interact? You can see this as a simple "stacking of decaying functions" (although there is more to it, see next section). In the chart below we use different "intensity" and "decay" parameters to discuss how the Flux is created.
Hopefully this helps with developing some intuition how signals are converted to decaying functions, how you can control them, and how the Flux is constructed. When tuning these parameters, use the visualisation options to see how individual decaying functions contribute to the overall Flux. This helps in understanding and refining the parameters to achieve the desired trading signal behaviour.
💮 5. Choosing Flux confluence mechanism
While we mentioned that the Flux is a "stacking of individual decaying functions", in the back-end, that is not exactly that simple. Like previously mentioned, for GYTS, "elegance" is very important. One of the interpretations is "user friendliness" and the Flux confluence mechanism is one of the essential developments for this characteristic. The Flux confluence mechanism is critical in synthesising the aggregated signals into the Flux. The choice of mechanism affects how the signals are combined and the resulting trading signals. The Community Edition offers two distinct mechanisms, each with its strengths.
The Amplitude Compression mechanism is intuitive, scaling the Flux based on recent values, intuitively not unlike the method of the well-known Stochastic Oscillator. On the other hand, the Trigonometric mechanism smooths the Flux and reduces the impact of outliers, providing a balanced approach. It's difficult to convey the workings of the Flux confluence mechanism in a chart, but let's take the opportunity to show how the Flux would look like when connecting both GDM and QMC signals to two Flux Composers with default settings, except the Flux confluence mechanism:
You can notice that the upper Flux Converter (FC) triggered two signals while the other FC triggered only one. There are more nuances, especially in combination with tuning the sensitivity and upper/lower threshold (UT/LT) parameters.
💮 6. Choosing sensitivity
Speaking of the sensitivity , this parameters fine-tunes how responsive the Flux is to the input signals. Higher sensitivity results in more pronounced responses, leading to more frequent trading signals. Lower sensitivity makes the Flux less responsive, resulting in fewer but potentially more reliable signals.
You might think that changing the upper/lower threshold (UT/LT) parameters would be equivalent, but that's not the case. The sensitivity In case of the Amplitude Compression mechanism, changing the sensitivity would change the relative Flux shape over time, and with the Trigonometric mechanism, the Flux shape itself (independent of time) would change. In other words, these are all good parameters for tuning.
💮 8. Interpreting the Flux for trading signals
Lastly, the Signal Flux gives buy and sell signals when it crosses the upper/lower thresholds (UT/LT) This can be visualised with the triangles as you may have seen in the charts in the previous sections. For people using TradingView's alerts -- these would work out of the box. And finally, for backtesting and possibly trade automation, we will have the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" that connects with the Flux Composer.
