LUX CLARA - EMA + VWAP (No ATR Filter) - v6EMA STRAT SHOUT OUTOUTLIERSSSSS
Overview:
an intraday strategy built around two core principles:
Trend Confirmation using the 50 EMA (Exponential Moving Average) in relation to the VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price).
Entry Signals triggered by the 8 EMA crossing the 50 EMA in the direction of that confirmed trend.
Key Logic:
Bullish Trend if the 50 EMA is above VWAP. Only long entries are allowed when the 8 EMA crosses above the 50 EMA during that bullish phase.
Bearish Trend if the 50 EMA is below VWAP. Only short entries are allowed when the 8 EMA crosses below the 50 EMA during that bearish phase.
Intraday Focus: Trades are restricted to a user-defined session window (default 7:30 AM–11:30 AM), aligning entries/exits with peak intraday liquidity.
Exit Rule: Positions close automatically when the 8 EMA crosses back in the opposite direction of the entry.
Why It Works:
EMA + VWAP helps detect both immediate momentum (EMAs) and overall institutional bias (VWAP).
By confining trades to a set intraday window, the strategy aims to capture morning volatility while avoiding choppy afternoon or overnight sessions.
Customization:
Users can adjust EMA lengths, session times, or incorporate stops/targets for additional risk management.
It can be tested on various symbols and intraday timeframes to gauge performance and robustness.

STH Unrealized Profit/Loss Ratio (STH-NUPL) | [DeV]STH-NUPL
The Short-Term Holder Net Unrealized Profit/Loss Ratio (STH-NUPL) is an analytical tool designed to approximate the unrealized profit or loss of Bitcoin’s short-term holders (STHs)—typically those holding coins for less than 155 days—within the constraints of TradingView’s price-based environment. Drawing inspiration from the canonical STH-NUPL metric, which assesses the difference between the market value and realized value of STH-held coins, this indicator adapts the concept into a normalized ratio using Bitcoin’s price data as a proxy. It offers a window into the sentiment and behavior of short-term market participants, who are often more sensitive to price fluctuations than long-term holders.
In its raw form, STH-NUPL oscillates around a break-even threshold of 0, where positive values indicate aggregate unrealized profits for STHs (market value exceeds realized value), and negative values suggest losses. This inflection point frequently acts as a key level: in bear markets, it can signal capitulation as STHs sell at break-even or below, while in bull markets, it may reflect reluctance to realize losses, providing support. The indicator enhances this metric with smoothing, a moving average overlay, and sophisticated visualization options, delivering a statistically informed perspective on short-term holder dynamics tailored for institutional-grade analysis.
STH-NUPL Settings -
Lookback Length (Default: 150 days): Defines the SMA period for estimating realized value. This 150-day window aligns with traditional STH definitions (e.g., <155 days), capturing a broad yet relevant historical cost basis for short-term holders, ideal for assessing cyclical behavior.
Smoothing Period (Default: 5 days): Applies an EMA to the raw STH-NUPL ratio, with a short default period to maintain responsiveness to recent price shifts while filtering out daily volatility. This setting is particularly suited for tactical analysis.
Moving Average Settings -
MA Lookback Length (Default: 90 days): Sets the period for the STH-NUPL’s moving average, offering a medium-term trend signal that contrasts with the 150-day lookback, enabling detection of momentum shifts within broader market phases.
MA Type (Default: EMA): Provides six moving average types, from the straightforward SMA to the volume-sensitive VWMA. The default EMA balances smoothness and reactivity, while options like HMA or VWMA cater to specialized needs, such as emphasizing recent action or volume trends.
Display Settings -
Show Moving Average (Default: True): Toggles the visibility of the STH-NUPL MA plot, allowing users to focus solely on the smoothed ratio when desired.
Show Background Colors (Default: True): Activates dynamic background shading to visually reinforce market regimes.
Background Color Source (Default: STH-NUPL): Enables users to tie the background to either the STH-NUPL’s midline (reflecting sthNupl > 0) or the MA’s trend direction (maNupl > maNupl ), aligning the visual context with the chosen analytical focus.
Analytical Applications -
Bear Market Capitulation: When the smoothed STH-NUPL approaches or falls below zero, it often signals loss realization among STHs, a precursor to capitulation in downtrends. A declining MA crossing zero can confirm this selling pressure.
Bull Market Support: Positive STH-NUPL values with a rising MA indicate STHs are in profit and reluctant to sell at a loss, forming support zones in uptrends as sell pressure wanes.
Sentiment Extremes: Significant deviations above or below zero highlight over-optimism or despair among STHs, offering contrarian opportunities when paired with price action or other on-chain metrics.
**Limitations**
As a TradingView-based approximation, this indicator uses price data (close) rather than true on-chain STH supply and realized price, which are available through providers like Glassnode. The 150-day SMA for realized value simplifies the cost basis, potentially underrepresenting the diversity of STH transactions. Despite this, the smoothed ratio and moving average overlay provide a practical proxy for tracking STH sentiment within TradingView’s ecosystem.
Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) Z-Score | [DeV]SOPR Z-Score
The Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) is an advanced on-chain metric designed to provide deep insights into Bitcoin market dynamics by measuring the ratio between the combined USD value of all Bitcoin outputs spent on a given day and their combined USD value at the time of creation (typically, their purchase price). As a member of the Realized Profit/Loss family of metrics, SOPR offers a window into aggregate seller behavior, effectively representing the USD amount received by sellers divided by the USD amount they originally paid. This indicator enhances this metric by normalizing it into a Z-Score, enabling a statistically robust analysis of market sentiment relative to historical trends, augmented by a suite of customizable features for precision and visualization.
SOPR Settings -
Lookback Length (Default: 150 days): Determines the historical window for calculating the Z-Score’s mean and standard deviation. A longer lookback captures broader market cycles, providing a stable baseline for identifying extreme deviations, which is particularly valuable for long-term strategic analysis.
Smoothing Period (Default: 100 days): Applies an EMA to the raw SOPR, balancing responsiveness to recent changes with noise reduction. This extended smoothing period ensures the indicator focuses on sustained shifts in seller behavior, ideal for institutional-grade trend analysis.
Moving Average Settings -
MA Lookback Length (Default: 90 days): Sets the period for the Z-Score’s moving average, offering a shorter-term trend signal relative to the 150-day Z-Score lookback. This contrast enhances the ability to detect momentum shifts within the broader context.
MA Type (Default: EMA): Provides six moving average types, from the simple SMA to the volume-weighted VWMA. The default EMA strikes an optimal balance between smoothness and responsiveness, while alternatives like HMA (Hull) or VWMA (volume-weighted) allow for specialized applications, such as emphasizing recent price action or incorporating volume dynamics.
Display Settings -
Show Moving Average (Default: True): Toggles the visibility of the Z-Score MA plot, enabling users to focus solely on the raw Z-Score when preferred.
Show Background Colors (Default: True): Activates dynamic background shading, enhancing visual interpretation of market regimes.
Background Color Source (Default: SOPR): Allows users to tie the background color to either the SOPR Z-Score’s midline (reflecting adjustedZScore > 0) or the MA’s trend direction (zScoreMA > zScoreMA ). This dual-source option provides flexibility to align the visual context with the primary analytical focus.
Analytical Applications -
Bear Market Resistance: When the Z-Score approaches or exceeds zero (raw SOPR near 1), it often signals resistance as sellers rush to exit at break-even, a pattern historically observed during downtrends. A rising Z-Score MA crossing zero can confirm this pressure.
Bull Market Support: Conversely, a Z-Score dropping below zero in uptrends indicates reluctance to sell at a loss, forming support as sell pressure diminishes. The MA’s bullish coloring reinforces confirmation of renewed buying interest.
Extreme Deviations: Values significantly above or below zero highlight overbought or oversold conditions, respectively, offering opportunities for contrarian positioning when paired with other on-chain or price-based metrics.
ATR SL and TP with Candle Freeze & DataWindowThis indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to automatically calculate your stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels based on the current market volatility and your chosen multipliers. Here's how it works:
ATR Calculation:
The indicator computes the ATR, which measures the average market volatility over a set period. This value helps gauge how much the price typically moves.
SL and TP Determination:
Depending on whether you're in a long or short trade, the SL and TP are calculated relative to the current price:
For a long trade, the stop loss is set below the current price (by subtracting a multiple of the ATR) and the take profit is set above it (by adding a multiple of the ATR).
For a short trade, the calculations are reversed.
Candle Freeze Feature:
Once a new candle starts, the calculated SL and TP values are "frozen" for that candle. This means they remain constant during the candle's formation, preventing them from updating continuously as the price fluctuates. This can make it easier to plan your trades without the levels shifting mid-candle.
Data Window & Labels:
The SL and TP values are plotted on the chart as lines and displayed in labels for quick reference. Additionally, they appear in TradingView's Data Window, so you can easily copy the price numbers if needed.
Overall, the indicator is designed to help you manage your trades by setting dynamic, volatility-adjusted SL and TP levels that only update at the start of each new candle, aligning with your chosen timeframe. Let me know if you have any more questions or need further adjustments!
Close Price PercentileClose Price Percentile with Range Distribution

Elastic Volume-Weighted Student-T TensionOverview
The Elastic Volume-Weighted Student-T Tension Bands indicator dynamically adapts to market conditions using an advanced statistical model based on the Student-T distribution. Unlike traditional Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels, this indicator leverages elastic volume-weighted averaging to compute real-time dispersion and location parameters, making it highly responsive to volatility changes while maintaining robustness against price fluctuations.
This methodology is inspired by incremental calculation techniques for weighted mean and variance, as outlined in the paper by Tony Finch:
📄 "Incremental Calculation of Weighted Mean and Variance" .
Key Features
✅ Adaptive Volatility Estimation – Uses an exponentially weighted Student-T model to dynamically adjust band width.
✅ Volume-Weighted Mean & Dispersion – Incorporates real-time volume weighting, ensuring a more accurate representation of market sentiment.
✅ High-Timeframe Volume Normalization – Provides an option to smooth volume impact by referencing a higher timeframe’s cumulative volume, reducing noise from high-variability bars.
✅ Customizable Tension Parameters – Configurable standard deviation multipliers (σ) allow for fine-tuned volatility sensitivity.
✅ %B-Like Oscillator for Relative Price Positioning – The main indicator is in form of a dedicated oscillator pane that normalizes price position within the sigma ranges, helping identify overbought/oversold conditions and potential momentum shifts.
✅ Robust Statistical Foundation – Utilizes kurtosis-based degree-of-freedom estimation, enhancing responsiveness across different market conditions.
How It Works
Volume-Weighted Elastic Mean (eμ) – Computes a dynamic mean price using an elastic weighted moving average approach, influenced by trade volume, if not volume detected in series, study takes true range as replacement.
Dispersion (eσ) via Student-T Distribution – Instead of assuming a fixed normal distribution, the bands adapt to heavy-tailed distributions using kurtosis-driven degrees of freedom.
Incremental Calculation of Variance – The indicator applies Tony Finch’s incremental method for computing weighted variance instead of arithmetic sum's of fixed bar window or arrays, improving efficiency and numerical stability.
Tension Calculation – There are 2 dispersion custom "zones" that are computed based on the weighted mean and dynamically adjusted standard student-t deviation.
%B-Like Oscillator Calculation – The oscillator normalizes the price within the band structure, with values between 0 and 1:
* 0.00 → Price is at the lower band (-2σ).
* 0.50 → Price is at the volume-weighted mean (eμ).
* 1.00 → Price is at the upper band (+2σ).
* Readings above 1.00 or below 0.00 suggest extreme movements or possible breakouts.
Recommended Usage
For scalping in lower timeframes, it is recommended to use the fixed α Decay Factor, it is in raw format for better control, but you can easily make a like of transformation to N-bar size window like in EMA-1 bar dividing 2 / decayFactor or like an RMA dividing 1 / decayFactor.
The HTF selector catch quite well Higher Time Frame analysis, for example using a Daily chart and using as HTF the 200-day timeframe, weekly or monthly.
Suitable for trend confirmation, breakout detection, and mean reversion plays.
The %B-like oscillator helps gauge momentum strength and detect divergences in price action if user prefer a clean chart without bands, this thanks to pineScript v6 force overlay feature.
Ideal for markets with volume-driven momentum shifts (e.g., futures, forex, crypto).
Customization Parameters
Fixed α Decay Factor – Controls the rate of volume weighting influence for an approximation EWMA approach instead of using sum of series or arrays, making the code lightweight & computing fast O(1).
HTF Volume Smoothing – Instead of a fixed denominator for computing α , a volume sum of the last 2 higher timeframe closed candles are used as denominator for our α weight factor. This is useful to review mayor trends like in daily, weekly, monthly.
Tension Multipliers (±σ) – Adjusts sensitivity to dispersion sigma parameter (volatility).
Oscillator Zone Fills – Visual cues for price positioning within the cloud range.
Posible Interpretations
As market within indicators relay on each individual edge, this are just some key ideas to glimpse how the indicator could be interpreted by the user:
📌 Price inside bands – Market is considered somehow "stable"; price is like resting from tension or "charging batteries" for volume spike moves.
📌 Price breaking outer bands – Potential breakout or extreme movement; watch for reversals or continuation from strong moves. Market is already in tension or generating it.
📌 Narrowing Bands – Decreasing volatility; expect contraction before expansion.
📌 Widening Bands – Increased volatility; prepare for high probability pull-back moves, specially to the center location of the bands (the mean) or the other side of them.
📌 Oscillator is just the interpretation of the price normalized across the Student-T distribution fitting "curve" using the location parameter, our Elastic Volume weighted mean (eμ) fixed at 0.5 value.
Final Thoughts
The Elastic Volume-Weighted Student-T Tension indicator provides a powerful, volume-sensitive alternative to traditional volatility bands. By integrating real-time volume analysis with an adaptive statistical model, incremental variance computation, in a relative price oscillator that can be overlayed in the chart as bands, it offers traders an edge in identifying momentum shifts, trend strength, and breakout potential. Think of the distribution as a relative "tension" rubber band in which price never leave so far alone.

Recency-Weighted Market Memory w/ Quantile-Based DriftRecency-Weighted Market Memory w/ Quantile-Based Drift
This indicator combines market memory, recency-weighted drift, quantile-based volatility analysis, momentum (RoC) filtering, and historical correlation checks to generate dynamic forecasts of possible future price levels. It calculates bullish and bearish forecast lines at each horizon, reflecting how the price might behave based on historical similarities.
Trading Concepts & Mathematical Foundations Explained
1) Market Memory
Concept:
Markets tend to repeat past behaviors under similar conditions. By identifying historical market states that closely match current conditions, we predict future price movements based on what happened historically.
Calculation Steps:
We select a historical lookback window (for example, 210 bars).
Each historical bar within this window is evaluated to see if its conditions match the current market. Conditions include:
Correlation between price change and bullish/bearish volume changes (over a user-defined correlation lookback period).
Momentum (Rate of Change, RoC) measured over a separate lookback period.
Only bars closely matching current conditions (within user-defined tolerance percentages) are included.
2) Recency-Weighted Drift
Concept:
Recent market movements often influence future direction. We assign more importance to recent bars to capture the current market bias effectively.
Calculation Steps:
Consider recent price changes between opens and closes for a user-defined drift lookback (for example, last 20 bars).
Give higher weight to recent bars (the most recent bar gets the highest weight, and weights decrease progressively for older bars).
Average these weighted changes separately for upward and downward movements, then combine these averages to calculate a final drift percentage relative to the current price.
3) Correlation Filtering
Concept:
Price changes often correlate strongly with bullish or bearish volume activity. By using historical correlation comparisons, we focus only on past market states with similar volume-price dynamics.
Calculation Steps:
Compute current correlations between price changes and bullish/bearish volume over the user-defined correlation lookback.
Evaluate each historical bar to see if its correlation closely matches the current correlation (within a user-specified percentage tolerance).
Only historical bars meeting this correlation criterion are selected.
4) Momentum (RoC) Filtering
Concept:
Two market periods may exhibit similar correlation structures but differ in how fast prices move (momentum). To ensure true similarity, momentum is checked as an additional filter.
Calculation Steps:
Compute the current Rate of Change (RoC) over the specified RoC lookback.
For each candidate historical bar, calculate its historical RoC.
Only include historical bars whose RoC closely matches the current RoC (within the RoC percentage tolerance).
5) Quantile-Based Volatility and Drift Amplification
Concept:
Quantiles (such as the 95th, 50th, and 5th percentiles) help gauge if current prices are near historical extremes or the median. Quantile bands measure volatility expansions and contractions.
Calculation Steps:
Calculate the 95%, 50%, and 5% quantiles of price over the quantile lookback period.
Add and subtract multiples of the standard deviation to these quantiles, creating upper and lower bands.
Measure the bands' widths relative to the current price as volatility indicators.
Determine the active quantile (95%, 50%, or 5%) based on proximity to the current price (within a percentage tolerance).
Compute the rate of change (RoC) of the active quantile to detect directional bias.
Combine volatility and quantile RoC into a scaling factor that amplifies or dampens expected price moves.
6) Expected Value (EV) Computation & Forecast Lines
Concept:
We forecast future prices based on how similarly-conditioned historical periods performed. We average historical moves to estimate the expected future price.
Calculation Steps:
For each forecast horizon (e.g., 1 to 27 bars ahead), collect all historical price moves that passed correlation and RoC filters.
Calculate average historical moves for bullish and bearish cases separately.
Adjust these averages by applying recency-weighted drift and quantile-based scaling.
Translate adjusted percentages into absolute future price forecasts.
Draw bullish and bearish forecast lines accordingly.
Indicator Inputs & Their Roles
Correlation Tolerance (%)
Adjusts how strictly the indicator matches historical correlation. Higher tolerance includes more matches, lower tolerance selects fewer but closer matches.
Price RoC Lookback and Price RoC Tolerance (%)
Controls how momentum (speed of price moves) is matched historically. Increasing tolerance broadens historical matches.
Drift Lookback (bars)
Determines the number of recent bars influencing current drift estimation.
Quantile Lookback Period and Std Dev Multipliers
Defines quantile calculation and the size of the volatility bands.
Quantile Contact Tolerance (%)
Sets how close the current price must be to a quantile for it to be considered "active."
Forecast Horizons
Specifies how many future bars to forecast.
Continuous Forecast Lines
Toggles between drawing continuous lines or separate horizontal segments for each forecast horizon.
Practical Trading Applications
Bullish & Bearish EV Lines
These forecast lines indicate expected price levels based on historical similarity. Green indicates positive expectations; red indicates negative.
Momentum vs. Mean Reversion
Wide quantile bands and high drift suggest momentum, while extremes may signal possible reversals.
Volatility Sensitivity
Forecasts adapt dynamically to market volatility. Broader bands increase forecasted price movements.
Filtering Non-Relevant Historical Data
By using both correlation and RoC filtering, irrelevant past periods are excluded, enhancing forecast reliability.
Multi-Timeframe Suitability
Adaptable parameters make this indicator suitable for different trading styles and timeframes.
Complementary Tool
This indicator provides probabilistic projections rather than direct buy or sell signals. Combine it with other trading signals and analyses for optimal results.
Important Considerations
While historically-informed forecasts are valuable, market behavior can evolve unpredictably. Always manage risks and use supplementary analysis.
Experiment extensively with input settings for your specific market and timeframe to optimize forecasting performance.
Summary
The Recency-Weighted Market Memory w/ Quantile-Based Drift indicator uniquely merges multiple sophisticated concepts, delivering dynamic, historically-informed price forecasts. By combining historical similarity, adaptive drift, momentum filtering, and quantile-driven volatility scaling, traders gain an insightful perspective on future price possibilities.
Feel free to experiment, explore, and enjoy this powerful addition to your trading toolkit!
TradFi Fundamentals: Momentum Trading with Macroeconomic DataIntroduction
This indicator combines traditional price momentum with key macroeconomic data. By retrieving GDP, inflation, unemployment, and interest rates using security calls, the script automatically adapts to the latest economic data. The goal is to blend technical analysis with fundamental insights to generate a more robust momentum signal.
Original Research Paper by Mohit Apte, B. Tech Scholar, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, COEP Technological University, Pune, India
Link to paper
Explanation
Price Momentum Calculation:
The indicator computes price momentum as the percentage change in price over a configurable lookback period (default is 50 days). This raw momentum is then normalized using a rolling simple moving average and standard deviation over a defined period (default 200 days) to ensure comparability with the economic indicators.
Fetching and Normalizing Economic Data:
Instead of manually inputting economic values, the script uses TradingView’s security function to retrieve:
GDP from ticker "GDP"
Inflation (CPI) from ticker "USCCPI"
Unemployment rate from ticker "UNRATE"
Interest rates from ticker "USINTR"
Each series is normalized over a configurable normalization period (default 200 days) by subtracting its moving average and dividing by its standard deviation. This standardization converts each economic indicator into a z-score for direct integration into the momentum score.
Combined Momentum Score:
The normalized price momentum and economic indicators are each multiplied by user-defined weights (default: 50% price momentum, 20% GDP, and 10% each for inflation, unemployment, and interest rates). The weighted components are then summed to form a comprehensive momentum score. A horizontal zero line is plotted for reference.
Trading Signals:
Buy signals are generated when the combined momentum score crosses above zero, and sell signals occur when it crosses below zero. Visual markers are added to the chart to assist with trade timing, and alert conditions are provided for automated notifications.
Settings
Price Momentum Lookback: Defines the period (in days) used to compute the raw price momentum.
Normalization Period for Price Momentum: Sets the window over which the price momentum is normalized.
Normalization Period for Economic Data: Sets the window over which each macroeconomic series is normalized.
Weights: Adjust the influence of each component (price momentum, GDP, inflation, unemployment, and interest rate) on the overall momentum score.
Conclusion
This implementation leverages TradingView’s economic data feeds to integrate real-time macroeconomic data into a momentum trading strategy. By normalizing and weighting both technical and economic inputs, the indicator offers traders a more holistic view of market conditions. The enhanced momentum signal provides additional context to traditional momentum analysis, potentially leading to more informed trading decisions and improved risk management.
The next script I release will be an improved version of this that I have added my own flavor to, improving the signals.
[SHORT ONLY] ATR Sell the Rip Mean Reversion Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "ATR Sell the Rip Mean Reversion Strategy" is a contrarian system that targets overextended price moves on stocks and ETFs. It calculates an ATR‐based trigger level to identify shorting opportunities. When the current close exceeds this smoothed ATR trigger, and if the close is below a 200-period EMA (if enabled), the strategy initiates a short entry, aiming to profit from an anticipated corrective pullback.
█ HOW IS THE ATR SIGNAL BAND CALCULATED?
This strategy computes an ATR-based signal trigger as follows:
Calculate the ATR
The strategy computes the Average True Range (ATR) using a configurable period provided by the user:
atrValue = ta.atr(atrPeriod)
Determine the Threshold
Multiply the ATR by a predefined multiplier and add it to the current close:
atrThreshold = close + atrValue * atrMultInput
Smooth the Threshold
Apply a Simple Moving Average over a specified period to smooth out the threshold, reducing noise:
signalTrigger = ta.sma(atrThreshold, smoothPeriodInput)
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The current close is above the smoothed ATR signal trigger.
The trade occurs within the specified trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
If the EMA filter is enabled, the close must also be below the 200-period EMA.
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit Signal is generated when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low (close < low ), indicating a potential bearish reversal and prompting the strategy to close its short position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
ATR Period: The period used to calculate the ATR, allowing for adaptability to different volatility conditions (default is 20).
ATR Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the ATR to determine the raw threshold (default is 1.0).
Smoothing Period: The period over which the raw ATR threshold is smoothed using an SMA (default is 10).
Start Time and End Time: Defines the time window during which trades are allowed.
EMA Filter (Optional): When enabled, short entries are only executed if the current close is below the 200-period EMA, confirming a bearish trend.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for use on the Daily timeframe, targeting stocks and ETFs by capitalizing on overextended price moves.
It utilizes a dynamic, ATR-based trigger to identify when prices have potentially peaked, setting the stage for a mean reversion short entry.
The optional EMA filter helps align trades with broader market trends, potentially reducing false signals.
Backtesting is recommended to fine-tune the ATR multiplier, smoothing period, and EMA settings to match the volatility and behavior of specific markets.
[SHORT ONLY] Consecutive Close>High[1] Mean Reversion Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Consecutive Close > High " Mean Reversion Strategy is a contrarian daily trading system for stocks and ETFs. It identifies potential shorting opportunities by counting consecutive days where the closing price exceeds the previous day's high. When this consecutive day count reaches a predetermined threshold, and if the close is below a 200-period EMA (if enabled), a short entry is triggered, anticipating a corrective pullback.
█ HOW ARE THE CONSECUTIVE BULLISH COUNTS CALCULATED?
The strategy uses a counter variable called `bullCount` to track how many consecutive bars meet a bullish condition. Here’s a breakdown of the process:
Initialize the Counter
var int bullCount = 0
Bullish Bar Detection
Every time the close exceeds the previous bar's high, increment the counter:
if close > high
bullCount += 1
Reset on Bearish Bar
When there is a clear bearish reversal, the counter is reset to zero:
if close < low
bullCount := 0
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The count of consecutive bullish closes (where close > high ) reaches or exceeds the defined threshold (default: 3).
The signal occurs within the specified trading window (between Start Time and End Time).
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit Signal is generated when the current close falls below the previous bar’s low (close < low ), prompting the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Threshold: The number of consecutive bullish closes required to trigger a short entry (default is 3).
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
EMA Filter (Optional): When enabled, short entries are only triggered if the current close is below the 200-period EMA.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for Stocks and ETFs on the Daily timeframe and targets overextended bullish moves.
It aims to capture mean reversion by entering short after a series of consecutive bullish closes.
Further optimization is possible with additional filters (e.g., EMA, volume, or volatility).
Backtesting should be used to fine-tune the threshold and filter settings for specific market conditions.
[SHORT ONLY] Internal Bar Strength (IBS) Mean Reversion Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Internal Bar Strength (IBS) Strategy" is a mean-reversion strategy designed to identify trading opportunities based on the closing price's position within the daily price range. It enters a short position when the IBS indicates overbought conditions and exits when the IBS reaches oversold levels. This strategy is Short-Only and was designed to be used on the Daily timeframe for Stocks and ETFs.
█ WHAT IS INTERNAL BAR STRENGTH (IBS)?
Internal Bar Strength (IBS) measures where the closing price falls within the high-low range of a bar. It is calculated as:
IBS = (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
- Low IBS (≤ 0.2) : Indicates the close is near the bar's low, suggesting oversold conditions.
- High IBS (≥ 0.8) : Indicates the close is near the bar's high, suggesting overbought conditions.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The IBS value rises to or above the Upper Threshold (default: 0.9).
The Closing price is greater than the previous bars High (close>high ).
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit Signal is generated when the IBS value drops to or below the Lower Threshold (default: 0.3). This prompts the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Upper Threshold: The IBS level at which the strategy enters trades. Default is 0.9.
Lower Threshold: The IBS level at which the strategy exits short positions. Default is 0.3.
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for Stocks and ETFs markets and performs best when prices frequently revert to the mean.
The strategy can be optimized further using additional conditions such as using volume or volatility filters.
It is sensitive to extreme IBS values, which help identify potential reversals.
Backtesting results should be analyzed to optimize the Upper/Lower Thresholds for specific instruments and market conditions.
End-of-Session ProbabilityThis indicator estimates the probability that the market will finish the session above a specified target price. It blends a statistical probability model with directional bias and optional morning momentum weighting to help traders gauge end-of-day market expectations.
Key Features:
• Statistical Probability Model:
Uses a normal distribution (with a custom normal CDF approximation) scaled by the square-root-of-time rule. The indicator dynamically adjusts the standard deviation for the remaining session time to compute a z‑score and ultimately the probability that the session close exceeds the target.
• Directional Bias via Daily HullMA (Exponential):
A daily Hull Moving Average (calculated using an exponential method) is used as a big-picture trend indicator. The model allows you to select your bias method—either by comparing the current price to the daily HullMA (Price method) or by using the HullMA’s slope (Slope method). A drift multiplier scales this bias, which then shifts the mean used in the probability calculations.
• Optional Morning Momentum Weight:
For traders who believe that early session moves provide useful clues about the day’s momentum, you can enable an optional weighting. The indicator captures the percentage change from the morning open (within a user-defined time window) and adjusts the expected move accordingly. A multiplier lets you control the strength of this adjustment.
• Visual Outputs:
The indicator plots quantile lines (approximately the 25%, 50%, and 75% levels) for the expected price distribution at session end. An abbreviated on-chart label displays key information:
• Target: The target price (current price plus a user-defined offset)
• Prob Above: The probability (in percentage) that the session close will exceed the target price
• Time: The time remaining in the session (in minutes)
How to Use:
1. Set Your Parameters:
• Expected Session Move: Input your estimated standard deviation for the full-session move in price units.
• Daily Hull MA Settings: Adjust the period for the daily HullMA and choose the bias method (Price or Slope). Modify the drift multiplier to tune the strength of the directional bias.

Internal Bar Strength (IBS) Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Internal Bar Strength (IBS) Strategy" is a mean-reversion strategy designed to identify trading opportunities based on the closing price's position within the daily price range. It enters a long position when the IBS indicates oversold conditions and exits when the IBS reaches overbought levels. This strategy was designed to be used on the daily timeframe.
█ WHAT IS INTERNAL BAR STRENGTH (IBS)?
Internal Bar Strength (IBS) measures where the closing price falls within the high-low range of a bar. It is calculated as:
IBS = (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
- **Low IBS (≤ 0.2)**: Indicates the close is near the bar's low, suggesting oversold conditions.
- **High IBS (≥ 0.8)**: Indicates the close is near the bar's high, suggesting overbought conditions.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY
A Buy Signal is triggered when:
The IBS value drops below the Lower Threshold (default: 0.2).
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
A Sell Signal is generated when the IBS value rises to or above the Upper Threshold (default: 0.8). This prompts the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Upper Threshold: The IBS level at which the strategy exits trades. Default is 0.8.
Lower Threshold: The IBS level at which the strategy enters long positions. Default is 0.2.
