XAUUSD Strength Dashboard with VolumeXAUUSD Strength Dashboard with Volume Analysis
📌 Description
This advanced Pine Script indicator provides a multi-timeframe dashboard for XAUUSD (Gold vs. USD), combining price action analysis with volume confirmation to generate high-probability trading signals. It detects:
✅ Break of Structure (BOS)
✅ Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
✅ Change of Character (CHOCH)
✅ Trendline Breaks (9/21 SMA Crossover)
✅ Volume Spikes (Confirmation of Strength)
The dashboard displays strength scores (0-100%) and action recommendations (Strong Buy/Buy/Neutral/Sell/Strong Sell) across multiple timeframes, helping traders identify confluences for better trade decisions.
🎯 How It Works
1. Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Fetches data from 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, Daily, and Weekly timeframes.
Compares trend direction, BOS, FVG, CHOCH, and volume spikes across all timeframes.
2. Volume-Confirmed Strength Score
The Strength Score (0-100%) is calculated using:
Trend Direction (25 points) → 9 SMA vs. 21 SMA
Break of Structure (20 points) → New highs/lows with momentum
Fair Value Gaps (10 points) → Imbalance zones
Change of Character (10 points) → Shift in market structure
Trendline Break (20 points) → SMA crossover confirmation
Volume Spike (15 points) → High volume confirms moves
Score Interpretation:
≥75% → Strong Buy (High confidence bullish move)
60-74% → Buy (Bullish but weaker confirmation)
40-59% → Neutral (No strong bias)
25-39% → Sell (Bearish but weaker confirmation)
≤25% → Strong Sell (High confidence bearish move)
3. Dashboard & Chart Markers
Dashboard Table: Shows Trend, BOS, Volume, CHOCH, TL Break, Strength %, Key Level, and Action for each timeframe.
Chart Markers:
🟢 Green Triangles → Bullish BOS
🔴 Red Triangles → Bearish BOS
🟢 Green Circles → Bullish CHOCH
🔴 Red Circles → Bearish CHOCH
📈 Green Arrows → Bullish Trendline Break
📉 Red Arrows → Bearish Trendline Break
"Vol↑" (Lime) → Bullish Volume Spike
"Vol↓" (Maroon) → Bearish Volume Spike
🚀 How to Use
1. Dashboard Interpretation
Higher Timeframes (D/W) → Show the dominant trend.
Lower Timeframes (1m-4h) → Help with entry timing.
Strength Score ≥75% or ≤25% → Look for high-confidence trades.
Volume Spikes → Confirm breakouts/reversals.
2. Trading Strategy
📈 Long (Buy) Setup:
Higher TFs (D/W/4h) show bullish trend (↑).
Current TF has BOS & Volume Spike.
Strength Score ≥60%.
Key Level (Low) holds as support.
📉 Short (Sell) Setup:
Higher TFs (D/W/4h) show bearish trend (↓).
Current TF has BOS & Volume Spike.
Strength Score ≤40%.
Key Level (High) holds as resistance.
3. Customization
Adjust Volume Spike Multiplier (Default: 1.5x) → Controls sensitivity to volume spikes.
Toggle Timeframes → Enable/disable higher/lower timeframes.
🔑 Key Benefits
✔ Multi-Timeframe Confluence → Avoids false signals.
✔ Volume Confirmation → Filters low-quality breakouts.
✔ Clear Strength Scoring → Removes emotional bias.
✔ Visual Chart Markers → Easy to spot key signals.

WaveTrend Dynamic (Lazy Bear Style)█ OVERVIEW
The WaveTrend Dynamic indicator (in the style of Lazy Bear) is an advanced tool based on the Exponential Smoothing Average (ESA), which adapts to the volatility and price of a financial instrument. It is more flexible than the classic WaveTrend but shares a similar concept of bands around a main oscillator line.
The indicator uses dynamic bands calculated as distances from the ESA, with their width adjustable via the "level" parameter. This allows it to be tailored to various markets, timeframes, and volatility conditions, making it easier to identify trends, reversal points, and buy/sell signals.
█ CONCEPTS
The WaveTrend Dynamic combines oscillator functions with trend analysis. Below, we explain the key components in a simple way, understandable even for beginner users.
Core Calculations
The indicator relies on the adaptive ESA and a few straightforward steps:
1 — ESA (Adaptive Average): Calculated as a smoothed average of the price (from high, low, and close, or HLC3) using the ESA Length parameter (default: 10). This number determines how many past candles are considered in the calculation. The ESA quickly responds to price changes, helping to track trends.
2 — Deviation (D): Measures how much the price deviates from the ESA, factoring in market volatility. This allows the indicator to adapt to different instruments.
3 — Price Distance Indicator (CI): Shows how far the price is from the ESA relative to market volatility. This forms the basis for the main indicator line, reacting to price movements.
4 — WT1 (WaveTrend 1): The main line, smoothing the Price Distance Indicator (CI) with the Average Length parameter (default: 21). It reflects the direction of price movement and momentum.
5 — WT2 (WaveTrend 2): A signal line that further smooths WT1 (with a period of 4). It helps confirm signals through crossovers with WT1.
6 — Bands (UpperBand and LowerBand): These form a dynamic channel around the ESA. Their width depends on the level parameter (default: 100). Wider bands result in fewer but more reliable signals. In the original WaveTrend, the oscillator bands use lower values, such as 50 or 60. To achieve classic oscillator signals (more frequent WT1/WT2 crossovers outside the bands), set the level to 50–60.
Trend Identification
The indicator identifies two types of trends:
• Major Trend: Determined by the position of WT1 relative to the ESA. When WT1 is above the ESA, it indicates a bullish trend. When below, it signals a bearish trend. Line and fill colors reflect this trend.
• Mini-Trend: Based on WT1 and WT2 crossovers. When the lines cross, they change to the same color, signaling short-term changes or reversal points. This is ideal for quick trading decisions.
Visuals and Effects
• WT1 and WT2 Lines: Scaled to price and displayed on the price chart for easier analysis.
• Fills: Between the bands (UpperBand/LowerBand) and between WT1/WT2, with a "wave" effect that adjusts transparency based on the trend (green for bullish, red for bearish).
• Signals: Three types—return-to-band, WT1/WT2 crossovers outside the bands, and crossovers inside the bands. Signals are displayed as triangles with different colors for buy and sell.
█ FEATURES
Detailed features of the indicator, aligned with the order of settings in the script:
• Basic Parameters: ESA Length — controls ESA smoothing; Average Length — affects WT1 responsiveness; level (WT Level) — adjusts band width for signal filtering.
• Display Elements: Options to show/hide ESA, bands, WT1/WT2; customizable colors for lines, fills, and the wave effect.
• Signals: Three signal groups (return-to-band, crossovers outside bands, crossovers inside bands) with display and color customization options.
█ HOW TO USE
1 — Add the indicator to your TradingView chart and adjust parameters: — Increase ESA Length and Average Length for low-volatility markets (e.g., stocks), or decrease for cryptocurrencies or forex. — Set level to 50–60 for classic WaveTrend signals with WT1/WT2 crossovers outside bands. The default value of 100 creates wider bands and fewer signals.
2 — Analyze trends: — Major trend (WT1 vs. ESA) shows the overall market direction. — Mini-trends (WT1/WT2 crossovers) help time short-term entries.
3 — Use signals: — Return-to-band: Buy at the lower band, sell at the upper band (mean-reversion). — Crossovers outside bands: Indicate strong momentum (with a lower level, e.g., 50). — Crossovers inside bands: Signal weaker trend changes.
4 — Combine with other tools: Use with volume, RSI, or support/resistance for better decisions. Test on historical data to optimize settings.
MT High/Low Boxes"Box out the High/Low at User-Defined Time Frame"
This feature allows users to set a custom time frame via an input panel, following TradingView's time frame conventions (e.g., "60," "240," "D," etc.).
The script dynamically captures timestamps for each custom interval to detect the start of new segments.
The box width is calculated based on the number of bars within the custom time frame, ensuring accurate coverage of the corresponding time range.
A central dashed line (yellow dotted) reflects the real-time midpoint between the high and low of the interval.
The background color adjusts based on bullish/bearish bias, comparing the opening price to the current closing price.
Simply select your desired time frame in the indicator settings—flexible and compatible with multiple time frames, including non-minute/hour units (e.g., daily, weekly).
Queso Heat IndexQueso Heat Index (QHI) — ATR-Adaptive Edge-Pressure Gauge
QHI measures how strongly price is pressing the edges of a rolling consolidation window. It heats up when price repeatedly pushes the window up , cools down when it pushes down , and drifts back toward neutral when price wanders in the middle. Everything is ATR-normalized so it adapts across symbols and timeframes.
Output: a signed score from −100 … +100
> 0 = bullish pressure (hot)
< 0 = bearish pressure (cold)
≈ 0 = neutral (no side dominating)
What you’ll see on the chart
Rolling “box” (Donchian window): top, bottom, and midline.
Optional compact-box shading when the window height is small relative to ATR.
Background “thermals”: tinted red when Heat > Hot threshold, blue when Heat < Cold threshold (intensity scales with the score).
Optional Heat line (−100..+100), optional 0/±80 thresholds, and optional push markers (PU/PD).
Optional table showing the current Heat score, placeable in any corner.
How it works (under the hood)
Consolidation window — Over lookback bars we track highest high (top), lowest low (bottom), and midpoint. The window is called “compact” when box height ≤ ATR × maxRangeATR .
ATR-based push detection — A bar is a push-up if high > prior window high + (epsATR × ATR + tick buffer) . A push-down if low < prior window low − (epsATR × ATR + tick buffer) . We also measure how many ATRs beyond the edge the bar traveled.
Heat gains (symmetric) — Each push adds/subtracts Heat:
base gain + streak bonus × consecutive pushes + magnitude bonus × ATRs beyond edge .
Decay toward neutral — Each bar, Heat decays by a percentage. Decay is:
– higher in the middle band of the box, and
– adaptive : the farther (in ATRs) from the relevant band (top when hot, bottom when cold), the faster it decays; hugging the band slows decay.
Midpoint bias (optional) — Gentle drift toward hot when trading above mid, toward cold when below mid, with a dead-zone near mid so tiny wobbles don’t matter.
Reset on regime flip (optional) — First valid push from the opposite side can snap Heat back to 0 before applying new gains.
How to read it
Rising hot with slow decay → strong upside pressure; pullbacks that hold near the top band often continue.
Flip to cold after being hot → regime change risk; tighten risk or consider the other side.
Compact window + rising hot (or cold) → squeeze-and-go conditions.
Neutral (≈ 0) → edges aren’t being pressured; expect mean-reversion inside the box.
Key inputs (what they do)
Window & ATR
lookback : size of the Donchian window (longer = smoother, slower).
atrLen : ATR period for all volatility-scaled thresholds.
maxRangeATR : defines “compact” windows for optional shading.
topBottomFrac : how thick the top/bottom bands are (used for decay/pressure logic).
Push detection (ATR-based)
epsATR : how many ATRs beyond the prior edge to count as a real push.
tickBuff : fixed extra ticks beyond the ATR epsilon (filters micro-breaches).
Heat gains
gainBase : main fuel per push.
gainPerStreak : rewards consecutive pushes.
gainPer1ATRBrk : adds more for stronger breakouts past the edge.
resetOppSide : snap back to 0 on the first opposite-side push.
Decay
decayPct : baseline % removed each bar.
decayAccelMid : multiplies decay when price is in the middle band.
adaptiveDecay , decayMinMult , decayPerATR , decayMaxMult : scale decay with ATR distance from the nearest “target” band (top if hot, bottom if cold).
Midpoint bias
useMidBias : enable/disable drift above/below midpoint.
midDeadFrac : width of neutral (no-drift) zone around mid.
midBiasPerBar : max drift per bar at the box edge.
Visuals (all default to OFF for a clean chart)
Plot Heat line + Show 0/±80 lines (only shows thresholds if Heat line is on).
Hot/Cold thresholds & transparency floors for background shading.
Push markers (PU/PD).
Heat score table : toggle on; choose any corner.
Tuning quick-starts
Daily trending equities : lookback 40–60; epsATR 0.10–0.25; gainBase 12–18; gainPerStreak 0.5–1.5; gainPer1ATRBrk 1–2; decayPct 3–6; adaptiveDecay ON (decayPerATR 0.5–0.8).
Intraday / noisy : raise epsATR and tickBuff to filter noise; keep decayPct modest so Heat can build.
Weekly swing : longer lookback/atrLen; slightly lower decayPct so regimes persist.
Alerts (included)
New window HIGH (push-up)
New window LOW (push-down)
Heat turned HOT (crosses above your Hot threshold)
Heat turned COLD (crosses below your Cold threshold)
Best practices & notes
Use QHI as a pressure gauge , not a standalone system—combine with your entry/exit plan and risk rules.
On thin symbols, increase epsATR and/or tickBuff to avoid spurious pushes.
Gap days can register large pushes; ATR scaling helps but consider context.
Want the Heat in a separate pane? Use the companion panel version; keep this overlay for background/box visuals.
Pine v6. Warm-up: values appear as soon as one bar of window history exists.
TL;DR
QHI quantifies how hard price is leaning on a consolidation edge.
It’s ATR-adaptive, streak- and magnitude-aware, and cools off intelligently when momentum fades.
Watch for thermals (background), the score (−100..+100), and fresh push alerts to time entries in the direction of pressure.
Zero Lag LSMA 3-Color# Zero Lag LSMA 3-Color Indicator
## Overview
The Zero Lag LSMA (ZLSMA) 3-Color is an advanced trend-following indicator that reduces the lag inherent in traditional Linear Regression Moving Averages (LSMA). This indicator provides clear visual signals through a color-coded system and dot markers to identify trend changes with minimal delay.
## What is Zero Lag LSMA?
Zero Lag LSMA is calculated by applying the Linear Regression Moving Average twice and then compensating for the lag:
1. **First LSMA**: Calculate LSMA of the price data
2. **Second LSMA**: Calculate LSMA of the first LSMA
3. **Zero Lag Calculation**: ZLSMA = LSMA + (LSMA - LSMA2)
This method significantly reduces the delay while maintaining the smoothness of the trend line.
## Features
### Color-Coded Trend System
- **Fluorescent Green** (`RGB(0, 255, 0)`): Uptrend - ZLSMA is rising
- **Fluorescent Red** (`RGB(255, 20, 60)`): Downtrend - ZLSMA is falling
- **Gray**: Sideways/Neutral - No clear directional bias
### Trend Change Markers
- **Tiny dots** appear at the exact moment when the trend direction changes
- **Green dots**: Mark the beginning of an uptrend
- **Red dots**: Mark the beginning of a downtrend
### Customizable Parameters
- **Length**: Period for ZLSMA calculation (default: 20)
- **Line Width**: Thickness of the ZLSMA line (default: 2)
- **Show/Hide Toggle**: Option to display or hide the indicator
## Trading Applications
### Trend Identification
- **Green line**: Look for long opportunities
- **Red line**: Look for short opportunities
- **Gray line**: Consider range-bound strategies
### Entry Signals
- **Dot markers** provide precise entry points when trend changes occur
- Green dots can signal potential buy entries
- Red dots can signal potential sell entries
### Trend Confirmation
- Use ZLSMA color changes to confirm other technical analysis signals
- The reduced lag helps traders enter trends earlier than traditional moving averages
## Advantages Over Traditional Moving Averages
1. **Reduced Lag**: Responds faster to price changes than standard moving averages
2. **Clear Visualization**: Color-coding makes trend direction immediately apparent
3. **Precise Timing**: Dot markers highlight exact trend change moments
4. **Smooth Operation**: Maintains smoothness while reducing whipsaws
## Best Practices
### Timeframe Usage
- Works effectively on all timeframes
- Higher timeframes provide more reliable signals
- Lower timeframes offer more trading opportunities but may have more noise
### Risk Management
- Always use proper stop-loss levels
- Consider the overall market context
- Combine with other technical analysis tools for confirmation
### Settings Optimization
- **Shorter periods** (10-15): More sensitive, faster signals
- **Longer periods** (25-50): More stable, fewer false signals
- **Standard period** (20): Good balance between sensitivity and stability
## Alert Conditions
The indicator includes built-in alert conditions for:
- ZLSMA turning upward (trend change to bullish)
- ZLSMA turning downward (trend change to bearish)
## Compatibility
- **Platform**: TradingView
- **Script Version**: Pine Script v6
- **Chart Type**: Works on all chart types
- **Markets**: Suitable for Forex, Stocks, Crypto, Commodities, and Indices

ADR/ATR Session No Probability Table by LKHere you go—clear, English docs you can drop into your script’s description or share with teammates.
ADR/ATR Session by LK — Overview
This indicator summarizes Average Daily Range (ADR) and Average True Range (ATR) for two horizons:
• Session H4 (e.g., 06:00–13:00 on a 4‑hour chart)
• Daily (D)
It shows:
• Current ADR/ATR values (using your chosen smoothing method)
• How much of ADR/ATR today/this bar has already been consumed (% of ADR/ATR)
• ADR/ATR as a percent of price
• Optional probability blocks: likelihood that %ADR will exceed user‑defined thresholds over a lookback window
• Optional on‑chart lines for the current H4 and Daily candles: Open, ADR High, ADR Low
⸻
What the metrics mean
• ADR (H4 / D): Moving average of the bar range (high - low).
• ATR (H4 / D): Moving average of True Range (max(hi-lo, |hi-close |, |lo-close |)).
• % of ADR (curr H4): (H4 range of the current H4 bar) / ADR(H4) × 100. Updates live even if the current time is outside the session.
• % of ADR (Daily): (today’s intra‑day range) / ADR(D) × 100.
• % of ATR (curr H4 / Daily): TR / ATR × 100 for that horizon.
• ADR % of Price / ATR % of Price: ADR or ATR divided by current price × 100 (a quick “volatility vs. price” gauge).
Session logic (H4): ADR/ATR(H4) only update on bars that fall inside the configured session window; outside the window the values hold steady (no recalculation “bleed”).
Daily range tracking: The indicator tracks today’s high/low in real‑time and resets at the day change.
⸻
Inputs (quick reference)
Core
• Length (ADR/ATR): smoothing length for ADR/ATR (default 21).
• Wait for Higher TF Bar Close: if true, updates ADR/ATR only after the higher‑TF bar closes when using request.security.
Timeframes
• Session Timeframe (H4): default 240.
• Daily Timeframe: default D.
Session time
• Session Timezone: “Chart” (default) or a fixed timezone.
• Session Start Hour, End Hour (minutes are fixed to 0 in this version).
Smoothing methods
• H4 ADR Method / H4 ATR Method: SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA.
• Daily ADR Method / Daily ATR Method: SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA.
Table appearance
• Table BG, Table Text, Table Font Size.
Lines (optional)
• Show current H4 segments, Show current Daily segments
• Line colors for Open / ADR High / ADR Low
• Line width
Probability
• H4 Probability Lookback (bars): number of H4 bars to examine (e.g., 300).
• Daily Probability Lookback (days): number of D bars (e.g., 180).
• ADR thresholds (%): CSV list of thresholds (e.g., 25,50,55,60,65,70,75,80,85,90,95,100,125,150).
The table will show the % of lookback bars where %ADR ≥ threshold.
Tip: If you want probabilities only for session H4 bars (not every H4 bar), ask and I can add a toggle to filter by inSess.
⸻
How to read the table
H4 block
• ADR (method) / ATR (method): the session‑aware averages.
• % of ADR (curr H4): live progress of this H4 bar toward the session ADR.
• ADR % of Price: ADR(H4) relative to price.
• % of ATR (curr H4) and ATR % of Price: same idea for ATR.
H4 Probability (lookback N bars)
• Rows like “≥ 80% ADR” show the fraction (in %) of the last N H4 bars that reached at least 80% of ADR(H4).
Daily block
• Mirrors the H4 block, but for Daily.
Daily Probability (lookback M days)
• Rows like “≥ 100% ADR” show the fraction of the last M daily bars whose daily range reached at least 100% of ADR(D).
⸻
Practical usage
• Use % of ADR (curr H4 / Daily) to judge exhaustion or room left in the day/session.
E.g., if Daily %ADR is already 95%, be cautious with momentum continuation trades.
• The probability tables give a quick historical context:
If “≥ 125% ADR” is ~18%, the market rarely stretches that far; your trade sizing/targets can reflect that.
• ADR/ATR % of Price helps normalize volatility between instruments.
⸻
Troubleshooting
• If probability rows are blank: ensure lookback windows are large enough (and that the chart has enough history).
• If ADR/ATR show … (NA): usually you don’t have enough bars for the chosen length/TF yet.
• If line segments are missing: verify you’re on a chart with visible current H4/D bars and the toggles are enabled.
⸻
Notes & customization ideas
• Add a toggle to count only session bars in H4 probability.
• Add separate thresholds for H4 vs Daily.
• Let users pick minutes for session start/end if needed.
• Add alerts when %ADR crosses specified thresholds.
If you want me to bundle any of the “ideas” above into the code, say the word and I’ll ship a clean patch.
Breakout Squeeze – Early Detector (BRK-SQZ)
What it does
Squeeze — price goes quiet (Bollinger Band Width compresses vs its recent average).
Fuel — volume expands vs its 20-bar average.
Level — price takes out a recent high.
Quality — the close is near the top of the candle’s range.
When those stack up you get a signal. You can choose Strict (safer, later) or Early (faster, noisier).
What you’ll see on the chart
Blue background → in a squeeze (coiled).
Orange dots (bottom) → volume currently above threshold.
Green tiny caret (above bar) → price is testing/clearing the breakout level.
Aqua diamond labeled “PRE” (above bar) → Pre-Signal (any 3 of 4 checks are true). Early heads-up.
Lime triangle “BRK” (below bar) → Confirmed Long breakout (all 4 checks pass).
Tip: PRE can fire intrabar for early notice. The BRK triangle is your confirmation.
Inputs (the only knobs that matter)
Early (default): high or close can break the level; looser volume/close filters.
Strict: close must break the level; stronger volume/close placement.
Core
BB Length (20), BB Mult (2.0)
Squeeze Lookback (40) — moving average window for BB Width.
Squeeze Threshold (sqzFactor) (0.60) — lower = tighter squeeze requirement.
Breakout
Breakout Lookback (brkLen) (20) — new high must clear the prior N bars.
Volume
Volume SMA Length (20)
Volume Spike ≥ (Early/Strict) (1.5 / 2.0) — multiplier vs avg volume.
Candle Quality
Close-in-Range (Early/Strict) (0.65 / 0.80) — 0.80 = close in top 20% of bar.
Options
Fire intrabar (ON = earlier PRE/BRK; OFF = bar-close only).
Plot Signal Labels (on/off).
Debug paints (show/hide squeeze tint, volume dots, breakout carets, PRE).
Alerts (set these, you’re done)
Create two alerts from the indicator’s Condition dropdown:
BRK-SQZ Pre-Signal
Trigger: Once per bar (for early pings).
Purpose: tells you the coil is heating up before the rip.
BRK-SQZ Long
Trigger: Once per bar close (clean confirmation) or Once per bar if you want it faster.
Purpose: confirms the breakout when all checks align.
How to trade it (framework, not rules)
First touch after a long squeeze is the highest-odds signal.
On Daily, manage risk with ATR or a structure stop under the base.
Scale out into strength; let a runner ride if the squeeze was multi-week.
Installation (60 seconds)
Add indicator.
Keep Mode = Early, Fire intrabar = ON.
Set alerts for Pre-Signal (Once per bar) and Long (Once per bar close).
Save inputs as a Template and apply across your watchlist.
FAQ
Q: Why did PRE fire but no BRK?
A: One of the four checks failed at close (often volume or close-placement). That’s the filter doing its job.
Q: I want even earlier signals.
A: Lower volMult_early, reduce brkLen, or enable intrabar signals. Expect more noise.
Q: Can I get bearish signals?
A: Not yet. I can ship a mirrored Breakdown version on request.
Q: Can I screen a whole watchlist?
A: This version is chart-based. I can add a mini screener panel with a consolidated alert if you want.
Changelog

VOID OCULUS MACHINE V8 – ASSASSIN MODEVOID OCULUS MACHINE V8 – ASSASSIN MODE
Version 8.0 | Pine Script v6
Purpose & Originality
VOID OCULUS MACHINE V8 – ASSASSIN MODE brings together four advanced trading filters—EMA crossovers, TRIX momentum, VWAP band positioning, and a proprietary “Predictive Cloud”—into a single, high-precision entry system. Rather than relying on any one signal, it calculates a confidence score combining trend, momentum, volume, and volatility cues, then triggers only the highest-probability setups once a user-defined threshold is met. This multi-layer architecture offers traders laser-focused entries (“Assassin Mode”) with built-in risk (stop) and reward (targets) visualization.
How It Works & Component Rationale
EMA Trend Alignment
Fast EMA (9) vs. Slow EMA (21): Captures short-term versus medium-term trend. A bullish bias requires EMA9 > EMA21, bearish bias EMA9 < EMA21.
TRIX Momentum Filter
A triple-smoothed EMA oscillator over 15 bars, expressed as a percentage change. Positive TRIX confirms upward momentum; negative TRIX confirms downward momentum.
Gaussian Noise Reduction
Dual 5-period EMA smoothing of price removes short-term noise, creating a “cloud base.” Entries only fire when price interacts favorably with this smoothed baseline.
VWAP Band Confirmation (Optional)
Calculates session VWAP ± one standard deviation over 20 bars, plotting upper/lower bands. Traders can require price to sit above/below VWAP mid for trend confirmation.
Predictive Cloud Overlay
A dynamic band (Gaussian ± ATR) forecasts a near-term “value zone.” Pullback and reversal entries can occur as price re-enters or breaks out of this cloud.
Confidence Scoring
Starts at 0 and adds:
+30 for EMA trend alignment (bull or bear)
+20 for volume spike (>20-bar SMA)
+20 for non-zero TRIX slope
+20 for ATR expansion (volatility ramping)
+10 if price is above or below VWAP mid (if VWAP filter is enabled)
Only fires signals when confidence ≥ 60% (configurable), ensuring multi-factor confluence.
Entry Type Differentiation
Breakout: Price pierces prior 10-bar high/low on volume and ATR expansion.
Pullback: Trend bias plus a crossover of price with EMA9.
Reversal: Price crosses back into the Predictive Cloud from outside, confirmed by VWAP cross.
Automated Trade Visualization
On each signal, clears previous objects, plots a “BUY (xx%) – ” or “SELL (xx%) – ” label, four tiered ATR-based targets (1×, 1.5×, 2×, 3.5×), and a stop-loss (ATR × 1.5).

Advanced Market TheoryADVANCED MARKET THEORY (AMT)
This is not an indicator. It is a lens through which to see the true nature of the market.
Welcome to the definitive application of Auction Market Theory. What you have before you is the culmination of decades of market theory, fused with state-of-the-art data analysis and visual engineering. It is an institutional-grade intelligence engine designed for the serious trader who seeks to move beyond simplistic indicators and understand the fundamental forces that drive price.
This guide is your complete reference. Read it. Study it. Internalize it. The market is a complex story, and this tool is the language with which to read it.
PART I: THE GRAND THEORY - A UNIVERSE IN AN AUCTION
To understand the market, you must first understand its purpose. The market is a mechanism of discovery, organized by a continuous, two-way auction.
This foundational concept was pioneered by the legendary trader J. Peter Steidlmayer at the Chicago Board of Trade in the 1980s. He observed that beneath the chaotic facade of ticking prices lies a beautifully organized structure. The market's primary function is not to go up or down, but to facilitate trade by seeking a price level that encourages the maximum amount of interaction between buyers and sellers. This price is "value."
The Organizing Principle: The Normal Distribution
Over any given period, the market's activity will naturally form a bell curve (a normal distribution) turned on its side. This is the blueprint of the auction.
The Point of Control (POC): This is the peak of the bell curve—the single price level where the most trade occurred. It represents the point of maximum consensus, the "fairest price" as determined by the market participants. It is the gravitational center of the session.
The Value Area (VA): This is the heart of the bell curve, typically containing 70% of the session's activity (one standard deviation). This is the zone of "accepted value." Prices within this area are considered fair and are where the market is most comfortable conducting business.
The Extremes: The thin areas at the top and bottom of the curve are the "unfair" prices. These are levels where one side of the auction (buyers at the top, sellers at the bottom) was shut off, and trade was quickly rejected. These are areas of emotional trading and excess.
The Narrative of the Day: Balance vs. Imbalance
Every trading session is a story of the market's search for value.
Balance: When the market rotates and builds a symmetrical, bell-shaped profile, it is in a state of balance . Buyers and sellers are in agreement, and the market is range-bound.
Imbalance: When the market moves decisively away from a balanced area, it is in a state of imbalance . This is a trend. The market is actively seeking new information and a new area of value because the old one was rejected.
Your Purpose as a Trader
Your job is to read this story in real-time. Are we in balance or imbalance? Is the auction succeeding or failing at these new prices? The Advanced Market Theory engine is your Rosetta Stone to translate this complex narrative into actionable intelligence.
PART II: THE AMT ENGINE - AN EVOLUTION IN MARKET VISION
A standard market profile tool shows you a picture. The AMT Engine gives you the architect's full schematics, the engineer's stress tests, and the psychologist's behavioral analysis, all at once.
This is what makes it the Advanced Market Theory. We have fused the timeless principles with layers of modern intelligence:
TRINITY ANALYSIS: You can view the market through three distinct lenses. A Volume Profile shows where the money traded. A TPO (Time) Profile shows where the market spent its time. The revolutionary Hybrid Profile fuses both, giving you a complete picture of market conviction—marrying volume with duration.
AUTOMATED STRUCTURAL DECODING: The engine acts as your automated analyst, identifying critical structural phenomena in real-time:
Poor Highs/Lows: Weak auction points that signal a high probability of reversal.
Single Prints & Ledges: Footprints of rapid, aggressive market moves and areas of strong institutional acceptance.
Day Type Classification: The engine analyzes the session's personality as it develops ("Trend Day," "Normal Day," etc.), allowing you to adapt your strategy to the market's current character.
MACRO & MICRO FUSION: Via the Composite Profile , the engine merges weeks of data to reveal the major institutional battlegrounds that govern long-term price action. You can see the daily skirmish and the multi-month war on a single chart.
ORDER FLOW INTELLIGENCE: The ultimate advancement is the integrated Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) engine. This moves beyond structure to analyze the raw aggression of buyers versus sellers. It is your window into the market's soul, automatically detecting critical Divergences that often precede major trend shifts.
ADAPTIVE SIGNALING: The engine's signal generation is not static; it is a thinking system. It evaluates setups based on a multi-factor Confluence Score , understands the market Regime (e.g., High Volatility), and adjusts its own confidence ( Probability % ) based on the complete context.
This is not a tool that gives you signals. This is a tool that gives you understanding .
PART III: THE VISUAL KEY - A LEXICON OF MARKET STRUCTURE
Every element on your chart is a piece of information. This is your guide to reading it fluently.
--- THE CORE ARCHITECTURE ---
The Profile Histogram: The primary visual on the left of each session. Its shape is the story. A thin profile is a trend; a fat, symmetrical profile is balance.
Blue Box : The zone of accepted, "fair" value. The heart of the session's business.
Bright Orange Line & Label : The Point of Control. The gravitational center. The price of maximum consensus. The most significant intraday level.
Dashed Blue Lines & Labels : The boundaries of value. Critical inflection points where the market decides to either remain in balance or seek value elsewhere.
Dashed Cyan Lines & Labels : The major, long-term structural levels derived from weeks of data. These are institutional reference points and carry immense weight. Treat them as primary support and resistance.
Dashed Orange Lines & Labels : Marks a Poor or Unfinished Auction . These represent emotional, weak extremes and are high-probability targets for future price action.
Diamond Markers : Mark Single Prints , which are footprints of aggressive, one-sided moves that left a "liquidity vacuum." Price is often drawn back to these levels to "repair" the poor structure.
Arrow Markers : Mark Ledges , which are areas of strong horizontal acceptance. They often act as powerful support/resistance in the future.
Dotted Gray Lines & Labels : The projected daily range based on multiples of the Initial Balance . Use them to set realistic profit targets and gauge the day's potential.
--- THE SIGNAL SUITE ---
Colored Triangles : These are your high-probability entry signals. The color is a strategic playbook:
Gold Triangle : ELITE Signal. An A+ setup with overwhelming confluence. This is the highest quality signal the engine can produce.
Yellow Triangle : FADE Signal. A counter-trend setup against an exhausted move at a structural extreme.
Cyan Triangle : BREAKOUT Signal. A momentum setup attempting to capitalize on a breakout from the value area.
Purple Triangle : ROTATION Signal. A mean-reversion setup within the value area, typically from one edge towards the POC.
Magenta Triangle : LIQUIDITY Signal. A sophisticated setup that identifies a "stop run" or liquidity sweep.
Percentage Number: The engine's calculated probability of success . This is not a guarantee, but a data-driven confidence score.
Dotted Gray Line: The signal's Entry Price .
Dashed Green Lines: The calculated Take Profit Targets .
Dashed Red Line: The calculated Stop Loss level.
PART IV: THE DASHBOARD - YOUR STRATEGIC COMMAND CENTER
The dashboard is your real-time intelligence briefing. It synthesizes all the engine's analysis into a clear, concise, and constantly updating summary.
--- CURRENT SESSION ---
POC, VAH, VAL: The live values for the core structure.
Profile Shape: Is the current auction top-heavy ( b-shaped ), bottom-heavy ( P-shaped ), or balanced ( D-shaped )?
VA Width: Is the value area expanding (trending) or contracting (balancing)?
Day Type: The engine's judgment on the day's personality. Use this to select the right strategy.
IB Range & POC Trend: Key metrics for understanding the opening sentiment and its evolution.
--- CVD ANALYSIS ---
Session CVD: The raw order flow. Is there more net buying or selling pressure in this session?
CVD Trend & DIVERGENCE: This is your order flow intelligence. Is the order flow confirming the price action? If "DIVERGENCE" flashes, it is a critical, high-alert warning of a potential reversal.
--- MARKET METRICS ---
Volume, ATR, RSI: Your standard contextual metrics, providing a quick read on activity, volatility, and momentum.
Regime: The engine's assessment of the broad market environment: High Volatility (favor breakouts), Low Volatility (favor mean reversion), or Normal .
--- PROFILE STATS, COMPOSITE, & STRUCTURE ---
These sections give you a quick quantitative summary of the profile structure, the major long-term Composite levels, and any active Poor Structures.
--- SIGNAL TYPES & ACTIVE SIGNAL ---
A permanent key to the signal colors and their meanings, along with the full details of the most recent active signal: its Type , Probability , Entry , Stop , and Target .
PART V: THE INPUTS MENU - CALIBRATING YOUR LENS
This engine is designed to be calibrated to your specific needs as a trader. Every input is a lever. This is not a "one size fits all" tool. The extensive tooltips are your built-in user manual, but here are the key areas of focus:
--- MARKET PROFILE ENGINE ---
Profile Mode: This is the most fundamental choice. Volume is the standard for price-based support and resistance. TPO is for analyzing time-based acceptance. Hybrid is the professional's choice, fusing both for a complete picture.
Profile Resolution: This is your zoom lens. Lower values for scalping and intraday precision. Higher values for a cleaner, big-picture view suitable for swing trading.
Composite Sessions: Your timeframe for macro analysis. 5-10 sessions for a weekly view; 20-30 sessions for a monthly, structural view.
--- SESSION & VALUE AREA ---
These settings must be configured correctly for your specific asset. The Session times are critical. The Initial Balance should reflect the key opening period for your market (60 minutes is standard for equities).
--- SIGNAL ENGINE & RISK MANAGEMENT ---
Signal Mode: THIS IS YOUR PERSONAL RISK PROFILE. Set it to Conservative to see only the absolute best A+ setups. Use Elite or Balanced for a standard approach. Use Aggressive only if you are an experienced scalper comfortable with managing more frequent, lower-probability setups.
ATR Multipliers: This suite gives you full, dynamic control over your risk/reward parameters. You can precisely define your initial stop loss distance and profit targets based on the market's current volatility.
A FINAL WORD FROM THE ARCHITECT
The creation of this engine was a journey into the very heart of market dynamics. It was born from a frustrating truth: that the most profound market theories were often confined to books and expensive institutional platforms, inaccessible to the modern retail trader. The goal was to bridge that gap.
The challenge was monumental. Making each discrete system—the volume profile, the TPO counter, the composite engine, the CVD tracker, the signal generator, the dynamic dashboard—work was a task in itself. But the true struggle, the frustrating, painstaking process that consumed countless hours, was making them work in unison . It was about ensuring the CVD analysis could intelligently inform the signal engine, that the day type classification could adjust the probability scores, and that the composite levels could provide context to the intraday structure, all in a seamless, real-time dance of data.
This engine is the result of that relentless pursuit of integration. It is built on the belief that a trader's greatest asset is not a signal, but clarity . It was designed to clear the noise, to organize the chaos, and to present the elegant, underlying logic of the market auction so that you can make better, more informed, and more confident decisions.
It is now in your hands. Use it not as a crutch, but as a lens. See the market for what it truly is.
"The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."

RSI Custom ADX VWAP Swing SignalsRSI Custom ADX VWAP Swing Signals
This Pine Script indicator is designed for the NASDAQ 1-minute timeframe (or any timeframe you use) and combines several technical analysis tools:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures momentum, indicating overbought and oversold conditions.
Custom ADX (Average Directional Index): Quantifies the strength of a trend, regardless of direction.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price): Represents the average price weighted by volume, indicating central price tendency.
Swing High/Low Detection: Identifies recent high and low points to detect breakout signals.
How it works:
RSI Calculation:
Uses a length of 14 (or your input) to assess whether market momentum is overbought (>60) or oversold (<30).
Custom ADX Calculation:
Computes plusDM and minusDM based on recent high/low price changes.
Smooths these using Wilder’s method (ta.rma) to obtain directional movement.
Derives the ADX value (sig), representing the trend strength.
VWAP Calculation:
Uses the typical price (hlc3) to compute the VWAP, a key level indicating average trading price weighted by
Time-Decaying Percentile Oscillator [BackQuant]Time-Decaying Percentile Oscillator
1. Big-picture idea
Traditional percentile or stochastic oscillators treat every bar in the look-back window as equally important. That is fine when markets are slow, but if volatility regime changes quickly yesterday’s print should matter more than last month’s. The Time-Decaying Percentile Oscillator attempts to fix that blind spot by assigning an adjustable weight to every past price before it is ranked. The result is a percentile score that “breathes” with market tempo much faster to flag new extremes yet still smooth enough to ignore random noise.
2. What the script actually does
Build a weight curve
• You pick a look-back length (default 28 bars).
• You decide whether weights fall Linearly , Exponentially , by Power-law or Logarithmically .
• A decay factor (lower = faster fade) shapes how quickly the oldest price loses influence.
• The array is normalised so all weights still sum to 1.
Rank prices by weighted mass
• Every close in the window is paired with its weight.
• The pairs are sorted from low to high.
• The cumulative weight is walked until it equals your chosen percentile level (default 50 = median).
• That price becomes the Time-Decayed Percentile .
Find dispersion with robust statistics
• Instead of a fragile standard deviation the script measures weighted Median-Absolute-Deviation about the new percentile.
• You multiply that deviation by the Deviation Multiplier slider (default 1.0) to get a non-parametric volatility band.
Build an adaptive channel
• Upper band = percentile + (multiplier × deviation)
• Lower band = percentile – (multiplier × deviation)
Normalise into a 0-100 oscillator
• The current close is mapped inside that band:
0 = lower band, 50 = centre, 100 = upper band.
• If the channel squeezes, tiny moves still travel the full scale; if volatility explodes, it automatically widens.
Optional smoothing
• A second-stage moving average (EMA, SMA, DEMA, TEMA, etc.) tames the jitter.
• Length 22 EMA by default—change it to tune reaction speed.
Threshold logic
• Upper Threshold 70 and Lower Threshold 30 separate standard overbought/oversold states.
• Extreme bands 85 and 15 paint background heat when aggressive fade or breakout trades might trigger.
Divergence engine
• Looks back twenty bars.
• Flags Bullish divergence when price makes a lower low but oscillator refuses to confirm (value < 40).
• Flags Bearish divergence when price prints a higher high but oscillator stalls (value > 60).
3. Component walk-through
• Source – Any price series. Close by default, switch to typical price or custom OHLC4 for futures spreads.
• Look-back Period – How many bars to rank. Short = faster, long = slower.
• Base Percentile Level – 50 shows relative position around the median; set to 25 / 75 for quartile tracking or 90 / 10 for extreme tails.
• Deviation Multiplier – Higher values widen the dynamic channel, lowering whipsaw but delaying signals.
• Decay Settings
– Type decides the curve shape. Exponential (default 1.16) mimics EMA logic.
– Factor < 1 shrinks influence faster; > 1 spreads influence flatter.
– Toggle Enable Time Decay off to compare with classic equal-weight stochastic.
• Smoothing Block – Choose one of seven MA flavours plus length.
• Thresholds – Overbought / Oversold / Extreme levels. Push them out when working on very mean-reverting assets like FX; pull them in for trend monsters like crypto.
• Display toggles – Show or hide threshold lines, extreme filler zones, bar colouring, divergence labels.
• Colours – Bullish green, bearish red, neutral grey. Every gradient step is automatically blended to generate a heat map across the 0-100 range.
4. How to read the chart
• Oscillator creeping above 70 = market auctioning near the top of its adaptive range.
• Fast poke above 85 with no follow-through = exhaustion fade candidate.
• Slow grind that lives above 70 for many bars = valid bullish trend, not a fade.
• Cross back through 50 shows balance has shifted; treat it like a micro trend change.
• Divergence arrows add extra confidence when you already see two-bar reversal candles at range extremes.
• Background shading (semi-transparent red / green) warns of extreme states and throttles your position size.
5. Practical trading playbook
Mean-reversion scalps
1. Wait for oscillator to reach your desired OB/ OS levels
2. Check the slope of the smoothing MA—if it is flattening the squeeze is mature.
3. Look for a one- or two-bar reversal pattern.
4. Enter against the move; first target = midline 50, second target = opposite threshold.
5. Stop loss just beyond the extreme band.
Trend continuation pullbacks
1. Identify a clean directional trend on the price chart.
2. During the trend, TDP will oscillate between midline and extreme of that side.
3. Buy dips when oscillator hits OS levels, and the same for OB levels & shorting
4. Exit when oscillator re-tags the same-side extreme or prints divergence.
Volatility regime filter
• Use the Enable Time Decay switch as a regime test.
• If equal-weight oscillator and decayed oscillator diverge widely, market is entering a new volatility regime—tighten stops and trade smaller.
Divergence confirmation for other indicators
• Pair TDP divergence arrows with MACD histogram or RSI to filter false positives.
• The weighted nature means TDP often spots divergence a bar or two earlier than standard RSI.
Swing breakout strategy
1. During consolidation, band width compresses and oscillator oscillates around 50.
2. Watch for sudden expansion where oscillator blasts through extreme bands and stays pinned.
3. Enter with momentum in breakout direction; trail stop behind upper or lower band as it re-expands.
6. Customising decay mathematics
Linear – Each older bar loses the same fixed amount of influence. Intuitive and stable; good for slow swing charts.
Exponential – Influence halves every “decay factor” steps. Mirrors EMA thinking and is fastest to react.
Power-law – Mid-history bars keep more authority than exponential but oldest data still fades. Handy for commodities where seasonality matters.
Logarithmic – The gentlest curve; weight drops sharply at first then levels off. Mimics how traders remember dramatic moves for weeks but forget ordinary noise quickly.
Turn decay off to verify the tool’s added value; most users never switch back.
7. Alert catalogue
• TD Overbought / TD Oversold – Cross of regular thresholds.
• TD Extreme OB / OS – Breach of danger zones.
• TD Bullish / Bearish Divergence – High-probability reversal watch.
• TD Midline Cross – Momentum shift that often precedes a window where trend-following systems perform.
8. Visual hygiene tips
• If you already plot price on a dark background pick Bullish Color and Bearish Color default; change to pastel tones for light themes.
• Hide threshold lines after you memorise the zones to declutter scalping layouts.
• Overlay mode set to false so the oscillator lives in its own panel; keep height about 30 % of screen for best resolution.
9. Final notes
Time-Decaying Percentile Oscillator marries robust statistical ranking, adaptive dispersion and decay-aware weighting into a simple oscillator. It respects both recent order-flow shocks and historical context, offers granular control over responsiveness and ships with divergence and alert plumbing out of the box. Bolt it onto your price action framework, trend-following system or volatility mean-reversion playbook and see how much sooner it recognises genuine extremes compared to legacy oscillators.
Backtest thoroughly, experiment with decay curves on each asset class and remember: in trading, timing beats timidity but patience beats impulse. May this tool help you find that edge.
TZtraderTZtrader
This is a TrendZones version with features to set stoploss and targets in short and long positions meant for use in intraday charts. It aims to provide signals for opening and closing long and short positions. In the comments under the TrendZones publication several people expressed a need for features for a short position similar to those for a long position as implemented in TrendZones, some want to use it for scalping, some asked for alerts. When I proposed to create a version for day trading with target lines based on ATR, several people liked the idea.
Full disclosure: I don’t do day trading, because, after I lost a lot of money, I had to promise my wife to stay away from it. I restrict myself to long term investing in stocks which are in uptrend. However I understand what a day trader needs. I gather from my experience that day trading or scalping is an attempt to earn something by opening a position in the morning and close, reopen and close it again during the day with a profit. It is usually done with leveraged instruments like CFD’s, futures, options, and what have you. Opening and closing positions is done within minutes, so the trader needs a quick and efficient way to set proper stoploss and target. TZtrader supports this by showing only three or four numbers on the price bar: The price of the instrument, The logical stop level (gray or green or maroon dots), and the target level (navy). All other numbers are suppressed to prevent mistakes. Also a clear feedback for current settings at the top-center of the pane and an alert feedback at bottom that flashes alerts during the development of the current bar and gives suppression status.
The script
First I made a bare bones version of TrendZones to which I added code for long and short trading setups and a bare setup for no position. The code for the logical stops in long setup had to be reviewed, after which this became the basis for stops in short setup.
Then I added code for 10 alert messages, which was a hassle, because this is the first time I coded alerts and the first time I used an array as a stack to avoid a complicated if-then construction. During testing the array caused a runtime error which I solved by adding ‘array.clear’ to the code, also I discovered that in TradingView separate alerts have to be created for all three setups - short, long and bare. Flipping setups is done in the inputs with a dropdown menu because Pine Script has no function for a clickable button.
One visual with three setups.
The visual has the TrendZones structure: Three near parallel very smooth curves, which border the moderate uptrend (green) and downtrend (orange) zone over and under the curve in the middle, the COG (Center Of Gravity). Where the price breaks out of these curves, strong trend zones show up over and under the curves, respectively strong uptrend (blue) and strong downtrend (red).
Three setups were made clearly different to avoid confusion and to provide oversight in case of multiple trades going on simultaneously which I imagine are monitored in one screen. You have to see which one is long, which short and which have no position. The long setup should not trigger short signals, nor should the short trigger long signals nor the bare setup exclusive long or short signals.
The Long setup is default, shown on the example chart. In this setup the Stoploss suggestions (green, gray and maroon dots) are under the price bars and the target line (navy) at a set distance above the High Border. A zone with a width of 1 ATR is drawn under the Low Border. In this setup 5 specific alerts are provided
The Short setup has the Stoploss suggestions over the price bars, the target line at a set distance under the Low Border. A zone with a width of 1 ATR is drawn above the High Border. This setup also has 5 specific alerts.
The Bare setup has no Stoploss suggestions, no target line and supports 4 alerts, 2 in common with the Long setup and 2 with Short.
The table below gives a summary of scripted alerts:
Setup = Where = When = Purpose
Long, Bare = Green Zone = Bars come from lower zones = Uptrend starts
Long, Bare = Green Zone = Sideways ends in uptrend = Uptrend resumes
Long = COG = First crossing = Uptrend might end warning
Long = Orange Zone = Bars come from higher zones = Uptrend ended take care
Long = Red Zone = Bars come from higher zones = Strong downtrend->close Long
Short, Bare = Orange Zone = Bars come from higher zones = Downtrend starts
Short, Bare = Orange Zone = Sideways ends in downtrend = Downtrend resumes
Short = COG = First crossing = Downtrend might end warning
Short = Green Zone = Bars come from lower zones = Downtrend ended take care
Short = Blue Zone = Bars come from lower zones = Strong uptrend -> close short
You can use script alerts in TradingView by clicking the clock in the sidebar, then ‘create alert’ or plus, as condition you choose ‘Tztrader’ in the dialog box, then the “Any alert() function call” option (the first item in the list). The script lets the valid alert trigger by TradingView after the bar is completed, this can differ from the flashed messages during its formation.
When you create alerts in Tradingview, I advice to do that for each setup, then to make only the alert active which matches the current setup, pause the other ones.
Suppressing false and annoying signals
The script has two ways to suppress such signals, which have to do with the numbers in the alert feedback. The numbers left and right of the message with a colored background, depict the zones in which the previous (left) and current (right) bar move. 1 is the strong downtrend zone (red), 2 the moderate downtrend zone (orange), 3 the sideways zones (gray), 4 the COG (gray), 5 the moderate uptrend zone (green), 6 the strong uptrend zone (blue), 7 something went wrong with assigning a zone (black). In extensive testing the number 7 never occurs, because I catch that error in the code. The idea is that an alert is only triggered if the previous bar was in a different zone. When the bars are in the same zone, no alert is possible. This way all annoying signals are suppressed and long, short and bare get the appropriate alerts.
The third number is a counter. It counts how often the COG is crossed without touching the outer curves. The counter will reset to zero when the upper or lower curve is touched. When the count is 1 you have zone situation 4 and appropriate alerts are flashed. When the count is 2 or higher, a sideways situation (3) is called and while the recrossings are going on, no alerts can be flashed. This suppresses false signals. The ATR zone and curves are brownish-gray where sideways happens(ed). When the channel is narrowed down to just the three curves, some false signals still might occur.
Inputs
“Setup”, default is long, drop down menu provides long, short and bare.
“Target ATR”, default is 2, sets the amount of ATR for the target line. In 1 minute charts 4 seems an appropriate setting, you have to learn by experience which setting works.
“show feedback …” default is on, This creates two feedback labels, a Setup feedback on top of the pane, which shows charted instrument, Setup type, Trend and timeframe of the chart. Background color of Trend feedback is green when it matches the setup, red when mismatches and gray when no match. The alert feedback at the bottom of the pane shows a number, a message and two numbers. The numbers will be explained in the chapter about false and annoying signals below. During formation of the bar, valid alerts are flashed with a blue background, otherwise the message ‘alerts for current bar suppressed’.
Logical Stops
The curves are the logical place to put stops, because, as these are averages of the high and low border of a Donchian channel, they signify the ‘natural’ current highest, lowest and main level in the lookback period that fit the monitored trend setup. A downtrend turns into an uptrend when a breakout of the upper curve occurs. If you are short, that is where you want to close position, so the logical place for the stoploss is the upper curve. Vice versa, when you are long, the logical stop is on the lower curve. The stops show up as green or gray dots on the curves, the green dots signify a nice entry level, the gray stops are there to suggest levels where unrealized profits might be secured, the maroon dots indicate that the trend mismatches the setup.
COG versus other lines
Any line used to identify a trend, be it some MA or some other line, is interpreted the same way: When the bars move above the line there is an uptrend and when below, a downtrend. COG is not different in that sense. If you put such a line in the same chart as TZtrader, you can see situations in which the other line shows uptrend or downtrend earlier than COG, also some other lines, e.g. Hull MA, are very good at showing tops and bottoms, while COG ignores these. On the other hand the other lines are usually a little nervous and let you shake out of position too soon. Just like the other lines, COG gives false signals when it is near horizontal. The advantage of the placement COG is the tolerance for pull backs. This way TZtrader keeps you longer in the trend. Such pull backs are often ‘flags’ which are interpreted in TA as confirming the trend. Tztrader aims to get you in position reasonably soon when a trend begins and out of position as soon as the trend turns against you. The placement of COG is done with a fundamentally different algorithm than other lines as it is not an average of prices, but the middle of two averages of borders of a Donchian channel. This gives the two zones between the curves the same quality as the two zones above and below the middle line of a standard Donchian Channel.
A multi timeframe application.
In this scenario you put a 5 minutes and 1 minute chart with Tztrader side by side. If the 5 minutes shows uptrend, set the 1 minute on long trading and open positions when the trend matches uptrend en close when it mismatches. Don’t open short positions. Once the 5 minute changes to downtrend, set Tztrader in the 1 minute to short trading and open positions when the trend matches downtrend and close when it mismatches.
The idea is that in a long ‘context’, provided by the 5 minutes, the uptrends in the 1 minute will last longer and go further, vice versa for the short ‘context’. This way you do swing trading in the 5 minute in a smart way, maximizing profits.
You can do this with any timeframe pairs with a proportion of around 5:1, 4:1, 6:1, like e.g. 60 minutes and 15 minutes or weeks and days (5 trading days in a week).

ASK Screener by AshpreetThe ASK Indicator is a custom-built breakout and trend continuation system designed for swing traders seeking high-probability entries with strong risk-reward ratios. Built using a combination of moving averages, momentum filters, volume confirmation, and price structure, this indicator helps identify stocks poised for explosive moves.
It uses three key moving averages: the 44-period SMA (medium trend), 20-period DEMA (short-term strength, custom-coded), and 50-period WEMA (institutional trendline). Trades are only triggered when the price is above 50 WEMA, and the 20 DEMA is above the 44 SMA.
Momentum is confirmed using RSI(14) within a healthy zone of 40–60, ensuring the stock is not overbought or oversold. To focus on breakout candidates, the stock must be trading within 10% of its 52-week high, and the weekly candle range must be under 10%, signaling compression before expansion.
A valid ASK Signal occurs when these conditions are met along with a breakout above the previous day’s high and volume exceeding 1.5× the 20-day average. Once triggered, the indicator auto-plots the stop-loss (1× ATR) and two profit targets: 1:2 (TP1) and 1:4 (TP2).
Additionally, the system detects a narrow range setup, where the last 3 daily candles are inside the previous 3-day range — a powerful consolidation signal. Alerts for both ASK entries and narrow ranges are included.
This system is ideal for positional and short-term swing traders who want to combine structure, momentum, and volume in one powerful tool.

Recession Warning Model [BackQuant]Recession Warning Model
Overview
The Recession Warning Model (RWM) is a Pine Script® indicator designed to estimate the probability of an economic recession by integrating multiple macroeconomic, market sentiment, and labor market indicators. It combines over a dozen data series into a transparent, adaptive, and actionable tool for traders, portfolio managers, and researchers. The model provides customizable complexity levels, display modes, and data processing options to accommodate various analytical requirements while ensuring robustness through dynamic weighting and regime-aware adjustments.
Purpose
The RWM fulfills the need for a concise yet comprehensive tool to monitor recession risk. Unlike approaches relying on a single metric, such as yield-curve inversion, or extensive economic reports, it consolidates multiple data sources into a single probability output. The model identifies active indicators, their confidence levels, and the current economic regime, enabling users to anticipate downturns and adjust strategies accordingly.
Core Features
- Indicator Families : Incorporates 13 indicators across five categories: Yield, Labor, Sentiment, Production, and Financial Stress.
- Dynamic Weighting : Adjusts indicator weights based on recent predictive accuracy, constrained within user-defined boundaries.
- Leading and Coincident Split : Separates early-warning (leading) and confirmatory (coincident) signals, with adjustable weighting (default 60/40 mix).
- Economic Regime Sensitivity : Modulates output sensitivity based on market conditions (Expansion, Late-Cycle, Stress, Crisis), using a composite of VIX, yield-curve, financial conditions, and credit spreads.
- Display Options : Supports four modes—Probability (0-100%), Binary (four risk bins), Lead/Coincident, and Ensemble (blended probability).
- Confidence Intervals : Reflects model stability, widening during high volatility or conflicting signals.
- Alerts : Configurable thresholds (Watch, Caution, Warning, Alert) with persistence filters to minimize false signals.
- Data Export : Enables CSV output for probabilities, signals, and regimes, facilitating external analysis in Python or R.
Model Complexity Levels
Users can select from four tiers to balance simplicity and depth:
1. Essential : Focuses on three core indicators—yield-curve spread, jobless claims, and unemployment change—for minimalistic monitoring.
2. Standard : Expands to nine indicators, adding consumer confidence, PMI, VIX, S&P 500 trend, money supply vs. GDP, and the Sahm Rule.
3. Professional : Includes all 13 indicators, incorporating financial conditions, credit spreads, JOLTS vacancies, and wage growth.
4. Research : Unlocks all indicators plus experimental settings for advanced users.
Key Indicators
Below is a summary of the 13 indicators, their data sources, and economic significance:
- Yield-Curve Spread : Difference between 10-year and 3-month Treasury yields. Negative spreads signal banking sector stress.
- Jobless Claims : Four-week moving average of unemployment claims. Sustained increases indicate rising layoffs.
- Unemployment Change : Three-month change in unemployment rate. Sharp rises often precede recessions.
- Sahm Rule : Triggers when unemployment rises 0.5% above its 12-month low, a reliable recession indicator.
- Consumer Confidence : University of Michigan survey. Declines reflect household pessimism, impacting spending.
- PMI : Purchasing Managers’ Index. Values below 50 indicate manufacturing contraction.
- VIX : CBOE Volatility Index. Elevated levels suggest market anticipation of economic distress.
- S&P 500 Growth : Weekly moving average trend. Declines reduce wealth effects, curbing consumption.
- M2 + GDP Trend : Monitors money supply and real GDP. Simultaneous declines signal credit contraction.
- NFCI : Chicago Fed’s National Financial Conditions Index. Positive values indicate tighter conditions.
- Credit Spreads : Proxy for corporate bond spreads using 10-year vs. 2-year Treasury yields. Widening spreads reflect stress.
- JOLTS Vacancies : Job openings data. Significant drops precede hiring slowdowns.
- Wage Growth : Year-over-year change in average hourly earnings. Late-cycle spikes often signal economic overheating.
Data Processing
- Rate of Change (ROC) : Optionally applied to capture momentum in data series (default: 21-bar period).
- Z-Score Normalization : Standardizes indicators to a common scale (default: 252-bar lookback).
- Smoothing : Applies a short moving average to final signals (default: 5-bar period) to reduce noise.
- Binary Signals : Generated for each indicator (e.g., yield-curve inverted or PMI below 50) based on thresholds or Z-score deviations.
Probability Calculation
1. Each indicator’s binary signal is weighted according to user settings or dynamic performance.
2. Weights are normalized to sum to 100% across active indicators.
3. Leading and coincident signals are aggregated separately (if split mode is enabled) and combined using the specified mix.
4. The probability is adjusted by a regime multiplier, amplifying risk during Stress or Crisis regimes.
5. Optional smoothing ensures stable outputs.
Display and Visualization
- Probability Mode : Plots a continuous 0-100% recession probability with color gradients and confidence bands.
- Binary Mode : Categorizes risk into four levels (Minimal, Watch, Caution, Alert) for simplified dashboards.
- Lead/Coincident Mode : Displays leading and coincident probabilities separately to track signal divergence.
- Ensemble Mode : Averages traditional and split probabilities for a balanced view.
- Regime Background : Color-coded overlays (green for Expansion, orange for Late-Cycle, amber for Stress, red for Crisis).
- Analytics Table : Optional dashboard showing probability, confidence, regime, and top indicator statuses.
Practical Applications
- Asset Allocation : Adjust equity or bond exposures based on sustained probability increases.
- Risk Management : Hedge portfolios with VIX futures or options during regime shifts to Stress or Crisis.
- Sector Rotation : Shift toward defensive sectors when coincident signals rise above 50%.
- Trading Filters : Disable short-term strategies during high-risk regimes.
- Event Timing : Scale positions ahead of high-impact data releases when probability and VIX are elevated.
Configuration Guidelines
- Enable ROC and Z-score for consistent indicator comparison unless raw data is preferred.
- Use dynamic weighting with at least one economic cycle of data for optimal performance.
- Monitor stress composite scores above 80 alongside probabilities above 70 for critical risk signals.
- Adjust adaptation speed (default: 0.1) to 0.2 during Crisis regimes for faster indicator prioritization.
- Combine RWM with complementary tools (e.g., liquidity metrics) for intraday or short-term trading.
Limitations
- Macro indicators lag intraday market moves, making RWM better suited for strategic rather than tactical trading.
- Historical data availability may constrain dynamic weighting on shorter timeframes.
- Model accuracy depends on the quality and timeliness of economic data feeds.
Final Note
The Recession Warning Model provides a disciplined framework for monitoring economic downturn risks. By integrating diverse indicators with transparent weighting and regime-aware adjustments, it empowers users to make informed decisions in portfolio management, risk hedging, or macroeconomic research. Regular review of model outputs alongside market-specific tools ensures its effective application across varying market conditions.

Momentum DivergenceOverview
The Momentum Divergence Oscillator is a valuable tool designed for traders who are familiar with basic charting but want to deepen their market insights. This indicator combines a momentum calculation with divergence detection, presenting the data in an intuitive way with a blue momentum line and colored divergence signals ("Bull" and "Bear"). It’s perfect for refining entry and exit points across various timeframes, especially for scalping or swing trading strategies.
Understanding the Concepts
What is Momentum?
Momentum measures the speed and strength of a price movement by comparing the current closing price to a previous close over a set period. In this indicator, it’s calculated as the difference between the current close and the close from a user-defined number of bars ago (default: 10). A rising momentum line indicates accelerating upward momentum, while a falling line suggests slowing momentum or a potential reversal. This helps you gauge whether a trend is gaining power or losing steam, making it a key indicator for spotting overbought or oversold conditions.
What is a Divergence?
A divergence occurs when the price action and the momentum indicator move in opposite directions, often signaling a potential trend reversal. The Momentum Divergence Oscillator highlights two types:
Bullish Divergence: When the price forms a lower low (indicating weakness), but the momentum shows a higher low (suggesting underlying strength). This can foreshadow an upward reversal.
Bearish Divergence: When the price reaches a higher high (showing strength), but the momentum records a lower high (indicating fading momentum). This may hint at an impending downward turn.
How the Indicator Works
The indicator plots a momentum line in a separate pane below your chart, giving you a clear view of price momentum over time. It also scans for divergences using adjustable lookback periods (default: 5 bars left and right) and a range window (default: 5-60 bars) to ensure relevance. When a divergence is detected, it’s visually highlighted, and you can customize the sensitivity through input settings like the momentum length and pivot lookback. Alerts are included to notify you of new divergence signals in real-time, saving you from constant monitoring.
How to Apply It
Identifying Opportunities: Use bullish divergences ("Bull") as a cue to consider long positions, especially when confirmed by support levels or a moving average crossover. Bearish divergences ("Bear") can signal short opportunities, particularly near resistance zones.
Combining with Other Tools: Pair this oscillator with indicators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) or volume analysis to filter out false signals and increase confidence in your trades. For example, a bullish divergence with rising volume can be a stronger buy signal.
Timeframe Flexibility: Test it on shorter timeframes (e.g., 5-minute charts) for quick scalping trades or longer ones (e.g., 1-hour or 4-hour charts) for swing trading, adjusting the momentum length to suit the market’s pace.
Alert Setup: Enable the built-in alerts to get notified when a divergence forms, allowing you to react promptly without staring at the screen all day.
Strategy Example
Spot a bullish divergence on a 15-minute chart where the price hits a lower low, but the momentum rises.
Confirm with a break above a 20-period EMA and increasing volume.
Enter a long position with a stop-loss below the recent low and a take-profit near the next resistance level.
Customization Tips
Adjust the "Momentum Length" (default: 10) to make the oscillator more or less sensitive—shorter lengths react faster, while longer ones smooth out noise.
Tweak the "Pivot Lookback" settings to widen or narrow the divergence detection range based on your trading style.
Use the "Range Upper/Lower" inputs to focus on divergences within a specific timeframe that matches your strategy.
Important Considerations
b]This indicator is a technical analysis tool, not a guaranteed trading system. Always pair it with a solid strategy and strict risk management, such as setting stop-losses.
In strong trending markets, divergences can sometimes produce false signals. Consider adding a trend filter (e.g., ADX below 25) to avoid whipsaws.
Experiment with the settings on a demo account or backtest to find what works best for your preferred markets and timeframes.
