Standard Deviation of Returns: DivergencePurpose:
The "Standard Deviation of Returns: Divergence" indicator is designed to help traders identify potential trend reversals or continuation signals by analyzing divergences between price action and the statistical volatility of returns. Divergences can signal weakening momentum in the prevailing trend, offering insight into potential buying or selling opportunities.
Key Components
1. Returns Calculation:
* The indicator uses logarithmic returns (log(close / close )) to measure relative price changes in a normalized manner.
* Log returns are more effective than simple price differences when analyzing data across varying price levels, as they account for percentage-based changes.
2. Standard Deviation of Returns:
* The script computes the standard deviation of returns over a user-defined lookback period (ta.stdev(returns, lookback)).
* Standard deviation measures the dispersion of returns around their average, effectively quantifying market volatility.
* A higher standard deviation indicates increased volatility, while lower standard deviation reflects a calmer market.
3. Price Action:
* Detects higher highs (new peaks in price) and lower lows (new troughs in price) over the lookback period.
* Price trends are compared to the behavior of the standard deviation.
4. Divergence Detection:
A divergence occurs when price action (higher highs or lower lows) is not confirmed by a corresponding movement in standard deviation:
Bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low, but the standard deviation does not, signaling potential upward momentum.
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high, but the standard deviation does not, signaling potential downward momentum.
5. Visual Cues:
The script highlights divergence regions directly on the chart:
Green Background: Indicates a bullish divergence (potential buy signal).
Red Background: Indicates a bearish divergence (potential sell signal).
How It Works
Inputs:
* The user specifies the lookback period (lookback) for calculating the standard deviation and detecting divergences.
Calculation:
* Each bar’s returns are computed and used to calculate the standard deviation over the specified lookback period.
* The indicator evaluates price highs/lows and compares these with the highest and lowest values of the standard deviation within the same lookback period.
Highlight of Divergences:
When divergences are detected:
Bullish Divergence: The background of the chart is shaded green.
Bearish Divergence: The background of the chart is shaded red.
Trading Application
Bullish Divergence:
* Occurs when the market is oversold, or downward momentum is weakening.
* Suggests a potential reversal to an uptrend, signaling a buying opportunity.
Bearish Divergence:
* Occurs when the market is overbought, or upward momentum is weakening.
* Suggests a potential reversal to a downtrend, signaling a selling opportunity.
Contextual Use:
* Use this indicator in conjunction with other technical tools like RSI, MACD, or moving averages to confirm signals.
* Effective in volatile or ranging markets to help anticipate shifts in momentum.
Summary
The "Standard Deviation of Returns: Divergence" indicator is a robust tool for spotting divergences that can signal weakening market trends. It combines statistical volatility with price action analysis to highlight key areas of potential reversals. By integrating this tool into your trading strategy, you can gain additional confirmation for entries or exits while keeping a close watch on momentum shifts.

BTCUSD Momentum After Abnormal DaysThis indicator identifies abnormal days in the Bitcoin market (BTCUSD) based on daily returns exceeding specific thresholds defined by a statistical approach. It is inspired by the findings of Caporale and Plastun (2020), who analyzed the cryptocurrency market's inefficiencies and identified exploitable patterns, particularly around abnormal returns.
Key Concept:
Abnormal Days:
Days where the daily return significantly deviates (positively or negatively) from the historical average.
Positive abnormal days: Returns exceed the mean return plus k times the standard deviation.
Negative abnormal days: Returns fall below the mean return minus k times the standard deviation.
Momentum Effect:
As described in the academic paper, on abnormal days, prices tend to move in the direction of the abnormal return until the end of the trading day, creating momentum effects. This can be leveraged by traders for profit opportunities.
How It Works:
Calculation:
The script calculates the daily return as the percentage difference between the open and close prices. It then derives the mean and standard deviation of returns over a configurable lookback period.
Thresholds:
The script dynamically computes upper and lower thresholds for abnormal days using the mean and standard deviation. Days exceeding these thresholds are flagged as abnormal.
Visualization:
The mean return and thresholds are plotted as dynamic lines.
Abnormal days are visually highlighted with transparent green (positive) or red (negative) backgrounds on the chart.
References:
This indicator is based on the methodology discussed in "Momentum Effects in the Cryptocurrency Market After One-Day Abnormal Returns" by Caporale and Plastun (2020). Their research demonstrates that hourly returns during abnormal days exhibit a strong momentum effect, moving in the same direction as the abnormal return. This behavior contradicts the efficient market hypothesis and suggests profitable trading opportunities.
"Prices tend to move in the direction of abnormal returns till the end of the day, which implies the existence of a momentum effect on that day giving rise to exploitable profit opportunities" (Caporale & Plastun, 2020).
Dema Percentile Standard DeviationDema Percentile Standard Deviation
The Dema Percentile Standard Deviation indicator is a robust tool designed to identify and follow trends in financial markets.
How it works?
This code is straightforward and simple:
The price is smoothed using a DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average).
Percentiles are then calculated on that DEMA.
When the closing price is below the lower percentile, it signals a potential short.
When the closing price is above the upper percentile and the Standard Deviation of the lower percentile, it signals a potential long.
Settings
Dema/Percentile/SD/EMA Length's: Defines the period over which calculations are made.
Dema Source: The source of the price data used in calculations.
Percentiles: Selects the type of percentile used in calculations (options include 60/40, 60/45, 55/40, 55/45). In these settings, 60 and 55 determine percentile for long signals, while 45 and 40 determine percentile for short signals.
Features
Fully Customizable
Fully Customizable: Customize colors to display for long/short signals.
Display Options: Choose to show long/short signals as a background color, as a line on price action, or as trend momentum in a separate window.
EMA for Confluence: An EMA can be used for early entries/exits for added signal confirmation, but it may introduce noise—use with caution!

Standard Deviation-Based Fibonacci Band by zdmre This indicator is designed to better understand market dynamics by focusing on standard deviation and the Fibonacci sequence. This indicator includes the following components to assist investors in analyzing price movements:
Weighted Moving Average (WMA) : The indicator creates a central band by utilizing the weighted moving average of standard deviation. WMA provides a more current and accurate representation by giving greater weight to recent prices. This central band offers insights into the general trend of the market, helping to identify potential buying and selling opportunities.
Fibonacci Bands : The Fibonacci bands located above and below the central band illustrate potential support and resistance levels for prices. These bands enable investors to pinpoint areas where the price may exhibit indecisiveness. When prices move within these bands, it may be challenging for investors to discern the market's preferred direction.
Indecisiveness Representation : When prices fluctuate between the Fibonacci bands, they may reflect a state of indecisiveness. This condition is critical for identifying potential reversal points and trend changes. Investors can evaluate these periods of indecisiveness to develop suitable buying and selling strategies.
This indicator is designed to assist investors in better analyzing market trends and supporting their decision-making processes. The integration of standard deviation and the Fibonacci sequence offers a new perspective on understanding market movements.
#DYOR
Asymmetric volatilityThe "Asymmetric Volatility" indicator is designed to visualize the differences in volatility between upward and downward price movements of a selected instrument. It operates on the principle of analyzing price movements over a specified time period, with particular focus on the symmetrical evaluation of both price rises and falls.
User Parameters:
- Length: This parameter specifies the number of bars (candles) used to calculate the average volatility. The larger the value, the longer the time period, and the smoother the volatility data will be.
- Source: This represents the input data for the indicator calculations. By default, the close value of each bar is used, but the user can choose another data source (such as open, high, low, or any custom value).
Operational Algorithm:
1. Movement Calculation:
- UpMoves: Computed as the positive difference between the current bar value and the previous bar value, if it is greater than zero.
- DownMoves: Computed as the positive difference between the previous bar value and the current bar value, if it is greater than zero.
2. Volatility Calculation:
- UpVolatility: This is the arithmetic mean of the UpMoves values over the specified period.
- DownVolatility: This is the arithmetic mean of the DownMoves values over the specified period.
3. Graphical Representation:
- The indicator displays two plots: upward and downward volatility, represented by green and red lines, respectively.
- The background color changes based on which volatility is dominant: a green background indicates that upward volatility prevails, while a red background indicates downward volatility.
The indicator allows traders to quickly assess in which direction the market is more volatile at the moment, which can be useful for making trading decisions and evaluating the current market situation.
Outlier changes alertAn indicator that calculates click (price change), percentage change, and Z-score changes while displaying outliers based on defined ranges.
Outlier Detection:
Mark outliers (for price, percentage, Z-score) based on user-defined thresholds. For example, any price movement exceeding a certain Z-score or percentage change could be marked as an outlier and displayed on chart.
Indicator Overview:
1. Click (Price Change):
Calculate the absolute price change from one period to another (e.g., from the current closing price to the previous closing price).
2. Percentage Change:
Calculate the percentage price change over a specific period, showing how much the price has changed in relative terms compared to the previous price.
3. Z-Score:
Compute the Z-score to standardize the price change relative to its historical average and standard deviation. The Z-score helps in detecting whether a price movement is an outlier or falls within a normal range of volatility.
Standard Deviation based Upper Lower RangeThis script makes use of historical data for finding the standard deviation on daily returns. Based on the mean and standard deviation, the upper and lower range for the stock is shown upto 2x standard deviation. These bounds can be treated as volatility range for the next n trading sessions. This volatility is based on historical data. Users can change the lookback historical period, and can also set the time period (days) for upcoming trading sessions.
This indicator can be useful in determining stoploss and target levels along with the traditional support/resistance levels. It can also be useful in option trading where one needs to determine a range beyond which it is safe to sell an option.
A range of 1 SD has around 65% to 68% probability that it will not be breached. A range of 2 SD has around 95% probability that it will not be breached.
The indicator is based on Normal distribution theory. In future editions, I envision to also calculate the skewness and kurtosis so that we can determine if a stock is properly following Normal Distribution theory. That may further favor the calculated range.
Sma Standard Deviation | viResearchSma Standard Deviation | viResearch
Conceptual Foundation and Innovation
The "Sma Standard Deviation" indicator from viResearch combines the benefits of Simple Moving Average (SMA) smoothing with Standard Deviation (SD) analysis, offering traders a powerful tool for understanding price trends and volatility. The SMA provides a straightforward approach to trend detection by calculating the average price over a defined period, while the SD component adds insight into the market's volatility by measuring the variation of prices around the SMA. This combination helps traders identify whether the price is moving within a typical range or deviating significantly, which can signal potential trend shifts or periods of increased volatility. By using both SMA and SD together, this indicator enhances the trader's ability to detect not only the trend direction but also how strongly the market is deviating from that trend, offering more informed decision-making.
Technical Composition and Calculation
The "Sma Standard Deviation" script uses two key elements: the Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Standard Deviation (SD). The SMA is calculated over a user-defined length and represents the smoothed average price over this period. The script also incorporates DEMA smoothing applied to different price sources, providing further refinement to the trend analysis. The SD is calculated by measuring the deviation of the price from the SMA over a separate user-defined length, showing how volatile the price is relative to its average. The script generates upper and lower SD boundaries by adding and subtracting the SD from the SMA, creating a volatility-adjusted range for the price. This allows traders to visualize whether the price is moving within expected bounds or breaking out of its typical range. The script monitors crossovers between the DEMA, SMA, and SD boundaries, generating trend signals based on these interactions.
Features and User Inputs
The "Sma Standard Deviation" script offers several customizable inputs, allowing traders to adjust the indicator to their specific strategies. The SMA Length controls the period for which the moving average is calculated, while the SD Length defines how long the period is for measuring price deviation. Additionally, the DEMA smoothing length can be adjusted for both the trend and standard deviation calculations, giving traders control over how responsive or smooth they want the indicator to be. The script also includes alert conditions that notify traders when trend shifts occur, either to the upside or downside.
Practical Applications
The "Sma Standard Deviation" indicator is designed for traders who want to analyze both market trends and volatility in a unified tool. The combination of the SMA and SD helps traders identify potential trend reversals, as large deviations from the SMA can indicate periods of increased volatility that precede significant price moves. This makes the indicator particularly effective for identifying trend reversals, managing volatility, and improving trend-following strategies. By analyzing when the price moves outside the volatility-adjusted range defined by the SD, traders can detect early signals of potential trend reversals. The SD component helps traders understand how volatile the market is relative to its average price, allowing for more informed decisions in both trending and volatile market conditions. The dual use of DEMA and SMA smoothing allows for a clearer trend signal, helping traders stay aligned with the prevailing market direction while managing the noise caused by short-term volatility.
Advantages and Strategic Value
The "Sma Standard Deviation" script offers significant value by integrating both trend detection and volatility analysis into a single tool. The use of SMA for smoothing price trends, combined with the SD for assessing price volatility, provides a more comprehensive view of the market. This dual approach helps traders filter out false signals caused by short-term fluctuations while identifying potential trend changes driven by increased volatility. This makes the "Sma Standard Deviation" indicator ideal for traders seeking a balance between trend-following and volatility management.
Alerts and Visual Cues
The script includes alert conditions that notify traders when significant trend shifts occur based on price crossovers with the SMA and SD boundaries. The "Sma Standard Deviation Long" alert is triggered when the price crosses above the upper volatility boundary, indicating a potential upward trend. Conversely, the "Sma Standard Deviation Short" alert signals a possible downward trend when the price crosses below the lower boundary. Visual cues, such as changes in the color of the SMA line, help traders quickly identify trend shifts and act accordingly.
Summary and Usage Tips
The "Sma Standard Deviation | viResearch" indicator provides traders with a robust tool for analyzing market trends and volatility. By combining the benefits of SMA smoothing with SD analysis, this script offers a comprehensive approach to detecting trend changes and managing risk. Incorporating this indicator into your trading strategy can help improve your ability to spot trend reversals, understand market volatility, and stay aligned with the broader market direction. The "Sma Standard Deviation" is a reliable and customizable solution for traders looking to enhance their technical analysis in both trending and volatile markets.

Deviation Adjusted MA Overview
The Deviation Adjusted MA is a custom indicator that enhances traditional moving average techniques by introducing a volatility-based adjustment. This adjustment is implemented by incorporating the standard deviation of price data, making the moving average more adaptive to market conditions. The key feature is the combination of a customizable moving average (MA) type and the application of deviation percentage to modify its responsiveness. Additionally, a smoothing layer is applied to reduce noise, improving signal clarity.
Key Components
Customizable Moving Averages
The script allows the user to select from four different types of moving averages:
Simple Moving Average (SMA): A basic average of the closing prices over a specified period.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to recent price changes.
Weighted Moving Average (WMA): Weights prices differently, favoring more recent ones but in a linear progression.
Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA): Adjusts the average by trading volume, placing more weight on high-volume periods.
Standard Deviation Calculation
The script calculates the standard deviation of the closing prices over the selected maLength period.
Standard deviation measures the dispersion or volatility of price movements, giving a sense of market volatility.
Deviation Percentage and Adjustment
Deviation Percentage is calculated by dividing the standard deviation by the base moving average and multiplying by 100 to express it as a percentage.
The base moving average is adjusted by this deviation percentage, making the indicator responsive to changes in volatility. The result is a more dynamic moving average that adapts to market conditions.
The parameter devMultiplier is available to scale this adjustment, allowing further fine-tuning of sensitivity.
Smoothing the Adjusted Moving Average
After adjusting the moving average based on deviation, the script applies an additional Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a length defined by the smoothingLength input.
This EMA serves as a smoothing filter to reduce the noise that could arise from the raw adjustments of the moving average. The smoothing makes trend recognition more consistent and removes short-term fluctuations that could otherwise distort the signal.
Use cases
The Deviation Adjusted MA indicator serves as a dynamic alternative to traditional moving averages by adjusting its sensitivity based on volatility. The script offers extensive customization options through the selection of moving average type and the parameters controlling smoothing and deviation adjustments.
By applying these adjustments and smoothing, the script enables users to better track trends and price movements, while providing a visual cue for changes in market sentiment.
RSI Standard Deviation | viResearchRSI Standard Deviation | viResearch
The "RSI Standard Deviation" indicator, developed by viResearch, introduces a new approach to combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with a standard deviation measure to offer a more dynamic view of market momentum. By applying standard deviation to the RSI values, this indicator refines the traditional RSI, providing a more precise and adaptive way to measure overbought and oversold conditions. This unique combination allows traders to better understand the underlying volatility in RSI movements, leading to more informed decisions in trending and ranging markets.
Technical Composition and Calculation:

Standard Deviation Applied to RSI:
Standard Deviation Length (sdlen): The script calculates the standard deviation of the RSI values over a user-defined period (default: 35). This standard deviation represents the volatility in RSI movements, adding a new layer of analysis to traditional RSI.
Upper (u) and Lower (d) Bands:
The standard deviation values are used to create upper and lower bands around the RSI, offering an adaptive range that expands or contracts based on market volatility. This helps traders identify moments when the market is more likely to reverse or continue its trend.
Trend Identification:
Uptrend (L): The script identifies an uptrend when the RSI moves above the lower band and stays above the midline (50). This indicates that the market is gaining upward momentum, potentially signaling a long position.
Downtrend (S): A downtrend is identified when the RSI moves below 50, suggesting a weakening market and a potential short position.
Features and User Inputs:
The "RSI Standard Deviation" script offers various customization options, enabling traders to tailor it to their specific needs and strategies:
RSI Length: Traders can adjust the length of the RSI calculation to control how quickly the indicator responds to price movements.
Standard Deviation Length: Adjusting the standard deviation length allows users to control the sensitivity of the upper and lower bands, fine-tuning the indicator’s responsiveness to market volatility.

Z-Score AggregatorOverview:
This indicator is designed to take multiple other indicators as inputs, calculate their respective Z-scores, and then aggregate these Z-scores to provide a comprehensive measure. By transforming the inputs into Z-scores, this indicator standardizes the data, enabling a more accurate comparison across different indicators, each of which may have different scales and distributions.
This indicator is beneficial for Mean-Reversion style trading and investing as it standardizes indicators and lets them work together in one system.
The Z-score, which represents how many standard deviations an element is from the mean, is a crucial statistical tool in this process. It allows the indicator to normalize the varying data points, ensuring that each indicator's contribution to the aggregate score is proportional to its deviation from the average performance.
Inputs:
Z-score length: How far Back it will take into account the inputs
Number Of Sources: This is to set the number of inputs the indicator uses so it calculates them properly and uses only the number of indicators you want.
Source Inputs: 1-10 inputs (no need to use them all as long as you set the number of used indicators beforehand).
Note:
There are three indicators used in this example which are CCI, RSI and Sharpe Ratio. The indicator calculates their individual Z-scores and takes an average. Because Number Of Sources is set to 3 it only uses the first 3 indicators in use.
VPSA - Volume Price Spread AnalysisDear Analysts and Traders,
I am pleased to present the latest version of my indicator, based on the logic of analyzing spread and volume. In this version, the indicator examines spread and volume using min-max normalization. The statistical value is captured through Z-Score standardization, and I have added configurable alerts based on the normalized values of spread, volume, and the sigmas for these variables.
Theory and Evolution of the Indicator
The normalization function used in this program allows for the comparison of two values with different ranges on a single chart. The values that reach the highest within the examined range are assigned a value of one. As in previous versions, I have adopted a bar chart where the wider bar represents volume and the narrower bar represents spread. I believe that using normalization is the most intuitive approach, as the standardization in the earlier sVPSA version could cause confusion. This was due to smaller bars for higher actual values and negative bars, which required additional reliance on actual volume data and significant proficiency in using the indicator. These were limitations stemming from the computational aspect of these issues. As in the previously mentioned script, I also used Z-Score standardization here, which serves as a measure of deviation from the mean. This is visualized in the script as the color of the bars, which in the default configuration are as follows: below one sigma - blue; above one sigma up to two sigmas - green; above two sigmas up to three sigmas - red; and above three sigmas - fuchsia. Additionally, I applied an exponential moving average in this indicator to minimize the influence of older candles on the mean. The indicator has been enhanced with configurable alerts, allowing for substantial control over the conditions triggering them. The alerts enable the definition of normalized variable values and sigma values. Furthermore, the program allows for the definition of logical dependencies for these conditions.
Summary
The program I have developed is a synthesis of the most important and useful functions from the indicators I previously created. The indicator is a standalone and powerful tool that facilitates effective analysis of the spread-volume relationship, which is one of the fundamental methods of analysis according to the Wyckoff and VSA methodologies. The alerts introduced in this version provide extensive possibilities for controlling the dynamics of any market.
Should you encounter any errors or have suggestions regarding the indicator, please feel free to contact me.
I wish you successful analyses! All the best!

It calculates and draws a linear regression channel and its Fibonacci levels across different time frames (5m, 15m, 30m, and 4h).
📊 How to use it?
🔍 Multidimensional Analysis
This strategy allows you to view the market from a multidimensional perspective, integrating long-term trends with short-term price action. By doing so, you can dynamically adjust your trades based on market developments, moving between time frames as needed. This not only enables you to capture large movements within the primary trend but also to exploit smaller fluctuations.
⏳ Time Frame Interaction
4-Hour Time Frame with Regression Channel: By using a regression channel on a broader time frame (like 4 hours), you gain a perspective on the dominant trend. This provides you with a solid foundation to evaluate the general market direction. In this scenario, you might deactivate the Fibonacci levels to avoid cluttering the visualization, focusing solely on the regression channel that shows you the prevailing trend.
Lower Time Frames with Regression and Fibonacci: You can activate the regression lines and Fibonacci levels on lower time frames (like 5m, 15m, or 30m) to obtain more precise signals. Here, Fibonacci levels will help you identify potential entry and exit points within the broader time frame.
🚩 Reversal Zone Identification
If the price breaks the regression channel on a lower time frame and approaches a key Fibonacci level, this could indicate a potential reversal.
🎯 Multiple Scenarios
By using different combinations of regression channels and Fibonacci levels across various time frames, you can create trading scenarios. For example, you could be in a long position on the 4-hour time frame while simultaneously trading within a lower time frame, taking advantage of bounces at Fibonacci levels.
🎯 Confluence Zone Identification
Zones where regression lines and Fibonacci levels coincide become areas of confluence. These zones represent points where a strong price reaction is likely to occur. If a Fibonacci retracement aligns with the upper or lower edge of a regression channel, this point acts as a significant support or resistance level.

Multi-Step FlexiSuperTrend - Strategy [presentTrading]At the heart of this endeavor is a passion for continuous improvement in the art of trading
█ Introduction and How it is Different
The "Multi-Step FlexiSuperTrend - Strategy " is an advanced trading strategy that integrates the well-known SuperTrend indicator with a nuanced and dynamic approach to market trend analysis. Unlike conventional SuperTrend strategies that rely on static thresholds and fixed parameters, this strategy introduces multi-step take profit mechanisms that allow traders to capitalize on varying market conditions in a more controlled and systematic manner.
What sets this strategy apart is its ability to dynamically adjust to market volatility through the use of an incremental factor applied to the SuperTrend calculation. This adjustment ensures that the strategy remains responsive to both minor and major market shifts, providing a more accurate signal for entries and exits. Additionally, the integration of multi-step take profit levels offers traders the flexibility to scale out of positions, locking in profits progressively as the market moves in their favor.
BTC 6hr Long/Short Performance
█ Strategy, How it Works: Detailed Explanation
The Multi-Step FlexiSuperTrend strategy operates on the foundation of the SuperTrend indicator, but with several enhancements that make it more adaptable to varying market conditions. The key components of this strategy include the SuperTrend Polyfactor Oscillator, a dynamic normalization process, and multi-step take profit levels.
🔶 SuperTrend Polyfactor Oscillator
The SuperTrend Polyfactor Oscillator is the heart of this strategy. It is calculated by applying a series of SuperTrend calculations with varying factors, starting from a defined "Starting Factor" and incrementing by a specified "Increment Factor." The indicator length and the chosen price source (e.g., HLC3, HL2) are inputs to the oscillator.
The SuperTrend formula typically calculates an upper and lower band based on the average true range (ATR) and a multiplier (the factor). These bands determine the trend direction. In the FlexiSuperTrend strategy, the oscillator is enhanced by iteratively applying the SuperTrend calculation across different factors. The iterative process allows the strategy to capture both minor and significant trend changes.
For each iteration (indexed by `i`), the following calculations are performed:
1. ATR Calculation: The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated over the specified `indicatorLength`:
ATR_i = ATR(indicatorLength)
2. Upper and Lower Bands Calculation: The upper and lower bands are calculated using the ATR and the current factor:
Upper Band_i = hl2 + (ATR_i * Factor_i)
Lower Band_i = hl2 - (ATR_i * Factor_i)
Here, `Factor_i` starts from `startingFactor` and is incremented by `incrementFactor` in each iteration.
3. Trend Determination: The trend is determined by comparing the indicator source with the upper and lower bands:
Trend_i = 1 (uptrend) if IndicatorSource > Upper Band_i
Trend_i = 0 (downtrend) if IndicatorSource < Lower Band_i
Otherwise, the trend remains unchanged from the previous value.
4. Output Calculation: The output of each iteration is determined based on the trend:
Output_i = Lower Band_i if Trend_i = 1
Output_i = Upper Band_i if Trend_i = 0
This process is repeated for each iteration (from 0 to 19), creating a series of outputs that reflect different levels of trend sensitivity.
Local
🔶 Normalization Process
To make the oscillator values comparable across different market conditions, the deviations between the indicator source and the SuperTrend outputs are normalized. The normalization method can be one of the following:
1. Max-Min Normalization: The deviations are normalized based on the range of the deviations:
Normalized Value_i = (Deviation_i - Min Deviation) / (Max Deviation - Min Deviation)
2. Absolute Sum Normalization: The deviations are normalized based on the sum of absolute deviations:
Normalized Value_i = Deviation_i / Sum of Absolute Deviations
This normalization ensures that the oscillator values are within a consistent range, facilitating more reliable trend analysis.
For more details:
🔶 Multi-Step Take Profit Mechanism
One of the unique features of this strategy is the multi-step take profit mechanism. This allows traders to lock in profits at multiple levels as the market moves in their favor. The strategy uses three take profit levels, each defined as a percentage increase (for long trades) or decrease (for short trades) from the entry price.
1. First Take Profit Level: Calculated as a percentage increase/decrease from the entry price:
TP_Level1 = Entry Price * (1 + tp_level1 / 100) for long trades
TP_Level1 = Entry Price * (1 - tp_level1 / 100) for short trades
The strategy exits a portion of the position (defined by `tp_percent1`) when this level is reached.
2. Second Take Profit Level: Similar to the first level, but with a higher percentage:
TP_Level2 = Entry Price * (1 + tp_level2 / 100) for long trades
TP_Level2 = Entry Price * (1 - tp_level2 / 100) for short trades
The strategy exits another portion of the position (`tp_percent2`) at this level.
3. Third Take Profit Level: The final take profit level:
TP_Level3 = Entry Price * (1 + tp_level3 / 100) for long trades
TP_Level3 = Entry Price * (1 - tp_level3 / 100) for short trades
The remaining portion of the position (`tp_percent3`) is exited at this level.
This multi-step approach provides a balance between securing profits and allowing the remaining position to benefit from continued favorable market movement.
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows traders to specify the trade direction through the `tradeDirection` input. The options are:
1. Both: The strategy will take both long and short positions based on the entry signals.
2. Long: The strategy will only take long positions.
3. Short: The strategy will only take short positions.
This flexibility enables traders to tailor the strategy to their market outlook or current trend analysis.
█ Usage
To use the Multi-Step FlexiSuperTrend strategy, traders need to set the input parameters according to their trading style and market conditions. The strategy is designed for versatility, allowing for various market environments, including trending and ranging markets.
Traders can also adjust the multi-step take profit levels and percentages to match their risk management and profit-taking preferences. For example, in highly volatile markets, traders might set wider take profit levels with smaller percentages at each level to capture larger price movements.
The normalization method and the incremental factor can be fine-tuned to adjust the sensitivity of the SuperTrend Polyfactor Oscillator, making the strategy more responsive to minor market shifts or more focused on significant trends.
█ Default Settings
The default settings of the strategy are carefully chosen to provide a balanced approach between risk management and profit potential. Here is a breakdown of the default settings and their effects on performance:
1. Indicator Length (10): This parameter controls the lookback period for the ATR calculation. A shorter length makes the strategy more sensitive to recent price movements, potentially generating more signals. A longer length smooths out the ATR, reducing sensitivity but filtering out noise.
2. Starting Factor (0.618): This is the initial multiplier used in the SuperTrend calculation. A lower starting factor makes the SuperTrend bands closer to the price, generating more frequent trend changes. A higher starting factor places the bands further away, filtering out minor fluctuations.
3. Increment Factor (0.382): This parameter controls how much the factor increases with each iteration of the SuperTrend calculation. A smaller increment factor results in more gradual changes in sensitivity, while a larger increment factor creates a wider range of sensitivity across the iterations.
4. Normalization Method (None): The default is no normalization, meaning the raw deviations are used. Normalization methods like Max-Min or Absolute Sum can make the deviations more consistent across different market conditions, improving the reliability of the oscillator.
5. Take Profit Levels (2%, 8%, 18%): These levels define the thresholds for exiting portions of the position. Lower levels (e.g., 2%) capture smaller profits quickly, while higher levels (e.g., 18%) allow positions to run longer for more significant gains.
6. Take Profit Percentages (30%, 20%, 15%): These percentages determine how much of the position is exited at each take profit level. A higher percentage at the first level locks in more profit early, reducing exposure to market reversals. Lower percentages at higher levels allow for a portion of the position to benefit from extended trends.

VWAP Bands [UAlgo]The "VWAP Bands " indicator is designed to provide traders with valuable insights into market trends and potential support/resistance levels using Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) bands. This indicator integrates the core concepts of VWAP with additional trend analysis features, making it a versatile tool for both range trading and trend-following strategies.
The VWAP bands are plotted based on the standard deviation multipliers, creating upper and lower bands around the VWAP. These bands serve as dynamic support and resistance levels. When the price approaches these bands, traders can anticipate potential reversals or continuations of the current trend. Additionally, the indicator provides visual cues for trend strength and potential trend changes, helping traders make informed decisions in various market conditions.
🔶 Settings
Source (Data Source): The data source for VWAP calculations. The default setting is the typical price (HLC3), which is the average of the high, low, and close prices.
Length: The number of bars used in the VWAP calculation. This determines the lookback period for the indicator.
Standard Deviation Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the standard deviation to create the primary upper and lower VWAP bands. This setting controls the distance of the bands from the VWAP.
Secondary Standard Deviation Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the standard deviation to create the secondary upper and lower VWAP bands, providing additional levels of support and resistance.

Display Trend Crossovers: A toggle to enable or disable the display of trend crossover signals. When enabled, the indicator plots shapes to indicate where trend switches are likely occurring.
🔶 Calculations
The calculations behind the "VWAP Bands " indicator begin with determining the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), which provides a comprehensive view of the average price of an asset, weighted by trading volume. This gives a more accurate representation of the asset's true average price over a specified period.
The first step in this process involves summing the trading volume over a chosen period, typically represented by the length parameter. Simultaneously, the product of the price (usually an average of the high, low, and close prices) and the trading volume is calculated and summed. By dividing this cumulative price-volume product by the total volume, we obtain the VWAP value. This VWAP serves as the central anchor around which the price action oscillates.
To enhance the utility of VWAP, we introduce standard deviation calculations. Standard deviation measures the extent of price dispersion from the VWAP, providing insight into price volatility. By calculating the variance (which involves the squared deviations of price) and then taking its square root, we derive the standard deviation. This helps in understanding how far prices typically stray from the VWAP.
With the VWAP and standard deviation in hand, we then establish upper and lower bands by adding and subtracting multiples of the standard deviation from the VWAP. These bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, adapting to changes in market volatility. The primary bands, set by the first standard deviation multiplier, are augmented by secondary bands defined by a larger multiplier, offering additional layers of potential support and resistance.
It also integrates trend analysis, highlighting areas where the price action suggests a strong or weak trend. This is achieved by overlaying colored zones above and below the bands, indicating the strength and direction of the trend. When the price crosses these bands, it signals potential trend changes, aiding traders in making timely decisions.

Price Based Z-Trend - Strategy [presentTrading]█ Introduction and How it is Different
Z-score: a statistical measurement of a score's relationship to the mean in a group of scores.
Simple but effective approach.
The "Price Based Z-Trend - Strategy " leverages the Z-score, a statistical measure that gauges the deviation of a price from its moving average, normalized against its standard deviation. This strategy stands out due to its simplicity and effectiveness, particularly in markets where price movements often revert to a mean. Unlike more complex systems that might rely on a multitude of indicators, the Z-Trend strategy focuses on clear, statistically significant price movements, making it ideal for traders who prefer a streamlined, data-driven approach.
BTCUSD 6h LS Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
🔶 Calculation of the Z-score
"Z-score is a statistical measurement that describes a value's relationship to the mean of a group of values. Z-score is measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean. If a Z-score is 0, it indicates that the data point's score is identical to the mean score. A Z-score of 1.0 would indicate a value that is one standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores may be positive or negative, with a positive value indicating the score is above the mean and a negative score indicating it is below the mean."
The Z-score is central to this strategy. It is calculated by taking the difference between the current price and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the price over a user-defined length, then dividing this by the standard deviation of the price over the same length:
z = (x - μ) /σ
Local
🔶 Trading Signals
Trading signals are generated based on the Z-score crossing predefined thresholds:
- Long Entry: When the Z-score crosses above the positive threshold.
- Long Exit: When the Z-score falls below the negative threshold.
- Short Entry: When the Z-score falls below the negative threshold.
- Short Exit: When the Z-score rises above the positive threshold.
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows users to select their preferred trading direction through an input option.
█ Usage
To use this strategy effectively, traders should first configure the Z-score thresholds according to their risk tolerance and market volatility. It's also crucial to adjust the length for the EMA and standard deviation calculations based on historical performance and the expected "noise" in price data.
The strategy is designed to be flexible, allowing traders to refine settings to better capture profitable opportunities in specific market conditions.
█ Default Settings
- Trade Direction: Both
- Standard Deviation Length: 100
- Average Length: 100
- Threshold for Z-score: 1.0
- Bar Color Indicator: Enabled
These settings offer a balanced starting point but can be customized to suit various trading styles and market environments. The strategy's parameters are designed to be adjusted as traders gain experience and refine their approach based on ongoing market analysis.
Z-score is a must-learn approach for every algorithmic trader.
