Multi-Timeframe Anchored VWAP Valuation# Multi-Timeframe Anchored VWAP Valuation
## Overview
This indicator provides a unique perspective on potential price valuation by comparing the current price to the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) anchored to the start of multiple timeframes: Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly. It synthesizes these comparisons into a single oscillator value, helping traders gauge if the current price is potentially extended relative to significant volume-weighted levels.
## Core Concept & Calculation
1. **Anchored VWAP:** The script calculates the VWAP separately for the current Week, Month, Quarter (3 Months), and Year (12 Months), starting the calculation from the first bar of each period.
2. **Price Deviation:** It measures how far the current `close` price is from each of these anchored VWAPs. This distance is measured in terms of standard deviations calculated *within* that specific anchor period (e.g., how many weekly standard deviations the price is away from the weekly VWAP).
3. **Deviation Score (Multiplier):** Based on this standard deviation distance, a score is assigned. The further the price is from the VWAP (in terms of standard deviations), the higher the absolute score. The indicator uses linear interpolation to determine scores between the standard deviation levels (defaulted at 1, 2, and 3 standard deviations corresponding to scores of +/-2, +/-3, +/-4, with a score of 1 at the VWAP).
4. **Timeframe Weighting:** Longer timeframes are considered more significant. The deviation scores are multiplied by fixed scalars: Weekly (x1), Monthly (x2), Quarterly (x3), Yearly (x4).
5. **Final Valuation Metric:** The weighted scores from all four timeframes are summed up to produce the final oscillator value plotted in the indicator pane.
## How to Interpret and Use
* **Histogram (Indicator Pane):**
* The main output is the histogram representing the `Final Valuation Metric`.
* **Positive Values:** Suggest the price is generally trading above its volume-weighted averages across the timeframes, potentially indicating strength or relative "overvaluation."
* **Negative Values:** Suggest the price is generally trading below its volume-weighted averages, potentially indicating weakness or relative "undervaluation."
* **Values Near Zero:** Indicate the price is relatively close to its volume-weighted averages.
* **Histogram Color:**
* The color of the histogram bars provides context based on the metric's *own recent history*.
* **Green (Positive Color):** The metric is currently *above* its recent average plus a standard deviation band (dynamic upper threshold). This highlights potentially significant "overvalued" readings relative to its normal range.
* **Red (Negative Color):** The metric is currently *below* its recent average minus a standard deviation band (dynamic lower threshold). This highlights potentially significant "undervalued" readings relative to its normal range.
* **Gray (Neutral Color):** The metric is within its typical recent range (between the dynamic upper and lower thresholds).
* **Orange Line:** Plots the moving average of the `Final Valuation Metric` itself (based on the "Threshold Lookback Period"), serving as the centerline for the dynamic thresholds.
* **On-Chart Table:**
* Provides a detailed breakdown for transparency.
* Shows the calculated VWAP, the raw deviation multiplier score, and the final weighted (adjusted) metric for each individual timeframe (W, M, Q, Y).
* Displays the current price, the final combined metric value, and a textual interpretation ("Overvalued", "Undervalued", "Neutral") based on the dynamic thresholds.
## Potential Use Cases
* Identifying potential exhaustion points when the indicator reaches statistically high (green) or low (red) levels relative to its recent history.
* Assessing whether price trends are supported by underlying volume-weighted average prices across multiple timeframes.
* Can be used alongside other technical analysis tools for confirmation.
## Settings
* **Calculation Settings:**
* `STDEV Level 1`: Adjusts the 1st standard deviation level (default 1.0).
* `STDEV Level 2`: Adjusts the 2nd standard deviation level (default 2.0).
* `STDEV Level 3`: Adjusts the 3rd standard deviation level (default 3.0).
* **Interpretation Settings:**
* `Threshold Lookback Period`: Defines the number of bars used to calculate the average and standard deviation of the final metric for dynamic thresholds (default 200).
* `Threshold StDev Multiplier`: Controls how many standard deviations above/below the metric's average are used to set the "Overvalued"/"Undervalued" thresholds (default 1.0).
* **Table Settings:** Customize the position and colors of the data table displayed on the chart.
## Important Considerations
* This indicator measures price deviation relative to *anchored* VWAPs and its *own historical range*. It is not a standalone trading system.
* The interpretation of "Overvalued" and "Undervalued" is relative to the indicator's logic and calculations; it does not guarantee future price movement.
* Like all indicators, past performance is not indicative of future results. Use this tool as part of a comprehensive analysis and risk management strategy.
* The anchored VWAP and Standard Deviation values reset at the beginning of each respective period (Week, Month, Quarter, Year).

Fibonacci Counter-Trend TradingOverview:
The Fibonacci Counter-Trend Trading strategy is designed to capitalize on price reversals by utilizing Fibonacci levels calculated from the standard deviation of price movements. This strategy opens a sell order when the closing price crosses above a specified upper Fibonacci level and a buy order when the closing price crosses below a specified lower Fibonacci level. By leveraging the principles of Fibonacci retracement and volatility, this strategy aims to identify potential reversal points in the market.
How It Works:
Fibonacci Levels Calculation:
The strategy calculates upper and lower Fibonacci levels based on the standard deviation of the price over a specified moving average length. These levels are derived from the Fibonacci sequence, which is widely used in technical analysis to identify potential support and resistance levels.
The upper levels are calculated by adding specific Fibonacci ratios (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.764, and 1.0) multiplied by the standard deviation to the basis (the volume-weighted moving average).
The lower levels are calculated by subtracting the same Fibonacci ratios multiplied by the standard deviation from the basis.
Trade Entry Rules:
Sell Order: A sell order is triggered when the closing price crosses above the selected upper Fibonacci level. This indicates a potential reversal point where the price may start to decline.
Buy Order: A buy order is initiated when the closing price crosses below the selected lower Fibonacci level. This suggests a potential reversal point where the price may begin to rise.
Trade Management:
The strategy includes stop-losses based on the Fibonacci levels to protect against adverse price movements.
How to Use:
Users can customize the moving average length and the multiplier for the standard deviation to suit their trading preferences and market conditions.
The strategy can be applied to various financial instruments, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies, making it versatile for different trading environments.
Pros:
The Fibonacci Counter-Trend Trading strategy combines the mathematical principles of the Fibonacci sequence with the statistical measure of standard deviation, providing a unique approach to identifying potential market reversals.
This strategy is particularly useful in volatile markets where price swings can lead to significant trading opportunities.
The use of Fibonacci levels can help traders identify key support and resistance areas, enhancing decision-making.
Cons:
The strategy may generate false signals in choppy or sideways markets, leading to potential losses if the price does not reverse as anticipated.
Relying solely on Fibonacci levels without considering other technical indicators or market conditions may result in missed opportunities or increased risk.
The effectiveness of the strategy can vary depending on the chosen parameters (e.g., moving average length and standard deviation multiplier), requiring users to spend time optimizing these settings for different market conditions.
As with any counter-trend strategy, there is a risk of significant drawdowns during strong trending markets, where the price continues to move in one direction without reversing.
By understanding the mechanics of the Fibonacci Counter-Trend Trading strategy, along with its pros and cons, traders can effectively implement it in their trading routines and potentially enhance their trading performance.
Transient Impact Model [ScorsoneEnterprises]This indicator is an implementation of the Transient Impact Model. This tool is designed to show the strength the current trades have on where price goes before they decay.
Here are links to more sophisticated research articles about Transient Impact Models than this post arxiv.org and arxiv.org
The way this tool is supposed to work in a simple way, is when impact is high price is sensitive to past volume, past trades being placed. When impact is low, it moves in a way that is more independent from past volume. In a more sophisticated system, perhaps transient impact should be calculated for each trade that is placed, not just the total volume of a past bar. I didn't do it to ensure parameters exist and aren’t na, as well as to have more iterations for optimization. Note that the value will change as volume does, as soon as a new candle occurs with no volume, the values could be dramatically different.
How it works
There are a few components to this script, so we’ll go into the equation and then the other functions used in this script.
// Transient Impact Model
transient_impact(params, price_change, lkb) =>
alpha = array.get(params, 0)
beta = array.get(params, 1)
lambda_ = array.get(params, 2)
instantaneous = alpha * volume
transient = 0.0
for t = 1 to lkb - 1
if na(volume )
break
transient := transient + beta * volume * math.exp(-lambda_ * t)
predicted_change = instantaneous + transient
math.pow(price_change - predicted_change, 2)
The parameters alpha, beta, and lambda all represent a different real thing.
Alpha (α):
Represents the instantaneous impact coefficient. It quantifies the immediate effect of the current volume on the price change. In the equation, instantaneous = alpha * volume , alpha scales the current bar's volume (volume ) to determine how much of the price change is due to immediate market impact. A larger alpha suggests that current volume has a stronger instantaneous influence on price.
Beta (β):
Represents the transient impact coefficient.It measures the lingering effect of past volumes on the current price change. In the loop calculating transient, beta * volume * math.exp(-lambda_ * t) shows that beta scales the volume from previous bars (volume ), contributing to a decaying effect over time. A higher beta indicates a stronger influence from past volumes, though this effect diminishes with time due to the exponential decay factor.
Lambda (λ):
Represents the decay rate of the transient impact.It controls how quickly the influence of past volumes fades over time in the transient component. In the term math.exp(-lambda_ * t), lambda determines the rate of exponential decay, where t is the time lag (in bars). A larger lambda means the impact of past volumes decays faster, while a smaller lambda implies a longer-lasting effect.
So in full.
The instantaneous term, alpha * volume , captures the immediate price impact from the current volume.
The transient term, sum of beta * volume * math.exp(-lambda_ * t) over the lookback period, models the cumulative, decaying effect of past volumes.
The total predicted_change combines these two components and is compared to the actual price change to compute an error term, math.pow(price_change - predicted_change, 2), which the script minimizes to optimize alpha, beta, and lambda.
Other parts of the script.
Objective function:
This is a wrapper function with a function to minimize so we get the best alpha, beta, and lambda values. In this case it is the Transient Impact Function, not something like a log-likelihood function, helps with efficiency for a high iteration count.
Finite Difference Gradient:
This function calculates the gradient of the objective function we spoke about. The gradient is like a directional derivative. Which is like the direction of the rate of change. Which is like the direction of the slope of a hill, we can go up or down a hill. It nudges around the parameter, and calculates the derivative of the parameter. The array of these nudged around parameters is what is returned after they are optimized.
Minimize:
This is the function that actually has the loop and calls the Finite Difference Gradient each time. Here is where the minimizing happens, how we go down the hill. If we are below a tolerance, we are at the bottom of the hill.
Applied
After an initial guess, we optimize the parameters and get the transient impact value. This number is huge, so we apply a log to it to make it more readable. From here we need some way to tell if the value is low or high. We shouldn’t use standard deviation because returns are not normally distributed, an IQR is similar and better for non normal data. We store past transient impact values in an array, so that way we can see the 25th and 90th percentiles of the data as a rolling value. If the current transient impact is above the 90th percentile, it is notably high. If below the 25th percentile, notably low. All of these values are plotted so we can use it as a tool.
Tool examples:
The idea around it is that when impact is low, there is room for big money to get size quickly and move prices around.
Here we see the price reacting in the IQR Bands. We see multiple examples where the value above the 90th percentile, the red line, corresponds to continuations in the trend, and below the 25th percentile, the purple line, corresponds to reversals. There is no guarantee these tools will be perfect, that is outlined in these situations, however there is clearly a correlation in this tool and trend.
This tool works on any timeframe, daily as we saw before, or lower like a two minute. The bands don’t represent a direction, like bullish or bearish, we need to determine that by interpreting price action. We see at open and at close there are the highest values for the transient impact. This is to be expected as these are the times with the highest volume of the trading day.
This works on futures as well as equities with the same context. Volume can be attributed to volatility as well. In volatile situations, more volatility comes in, and we can perceive it through the transient impact value.
Inputs
Users can enter the lookback value.
No tool is perfect, the transient impact value is also not perfect and should not be followed blindly. It is good to use any tool along with discretion and price action.

EMA 34 Crossover with Break Even Stop LossEMA 34 Crossover with Break Even Stop Loss Strategy
This trading strategy is based on the 34-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and aims to enter long positions when the price crosses above the EMA 34. The strategy is designed to manage risk effectively with a dynamic stop loss and take-profit mechanism.
Key Features:
EMA 34 Crossover:
The strategy generates a long entry signal when the closing price of the current bar crosses above the 34-period EMA, with the condition that the previous closing price was below the EMA. This crossover indicates a potential upward trend.
Risk Management:
Upon entering a trade, the strategy sets a stop loss at the low of the previous bar. This helps in controlling the downside risk.
A take profit level is set at a 10:1 risk-to-reward ratio, meaning the potential profit is ten times the amount risked on the trade.
Break-even Stop Loss:
As the price moves in favor of the trade and reaches a 3:1 risk-to-reward ratio, the strategy moves the stop loss to the entry price (break-even). This ensures that no loss will be incurred if the market reverses, effectively protecting profits.
Exit Conditions:
The strategy exits the trade when either the stop loss is hit (if the price drops below the stop loss level) or the take profit target is reached (if the price rises to the take profit level).
If the price reaches the break-even level (entry price), the stop loss is adjusted to lock in profits and prevent any loss.
Visualization:
The stop loss and take profit levels are plotted on the chart for easy visualization, helping traders track the status of their trade.
Trade Management Summary:
Long Entry: When price crosses above the 34-period EMA.
Stop Loss: Set to the low of the previous candle.
Take Profit: Set to a 10:1 risk-to-reward ratio.
Break-even: Stop loss is moved to entry price when a 3:1 risk-to-reward ratio is reached.
Exit: The trade is closed either when the stop loss or take profit levels are hit.
This strategy is designed to minimize losses by employing a dynamic stop loss and to maximize gains by setting a favorable risk-to-reward ratio, making it suitable for traders who prefer a structured, automated approach to risk management and trend-following.
Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System -FibonacciFluxAdaptive Fibonacci Pullback System (AFPS) - FibonacciFlux
This work is licensed under a Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0). Original concepts by FibonacciFlux.
Abstract
The Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System (AFPS) presents a sophisticated, institutional-grade algorithmic strategy engineered for high-probability trend pullback entries. Developed by FibonacciFlux, AFPS uniquely integrates a proprietary Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend engine (0.618, 1.618, 2.618 ratios) for harmonic volatility assessment, an Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) Channel providing dynamic market context, and a synergistic Multi-Timeframe (MTF) filter suite (RSI, MACD, Volume). This strategy transcends simple indicator combinations through its strict, multi-stage confluence validation logic. Historical simulations suggest that specific MTF filter configurations can yield exceptional performance metrics, potentially achieving Profit Factors exceeding 2.6 , indicative of institutional-level potential, while maintaining controlled risk under realistic trading parameters (managed equity risk, commission, slippage).

1. Introduction: Elevating Pullback Trading with Adaptive Confluence
Traditional pullback strategies often struggle with noise, false signals, and adapting to changing market dynamics. AFPS addresses these challenges by introducing a novel framework grounded in Fibonacci principles and adaptive logic. Instead of relying on static levels or single confirmations, AFPS seeks high-probability pullback entries within established trends by validating signals through a rigorous confluence of:
Harmonic Volatility Context: Understanding the trend's stability and potential turning points using the unique Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend.
Adaptive Market Structure: Assessing the prevailing trend regime via the AMA Channel.
Multi-Dimensional Confirmation: Filtering signals with lower-timeframe Momentum (RSI), Trend Alignment (MACD), and Market Conviction (Volume) using the MTF suite.
The objective is to achieve superior signal quality and adaptability, moving beyond conventional pullback methodologies.
2. Core Methodology: Synergistic Integration
AFPS's effectiveness stems from the engineered synergy between its core components:
2.1. Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend Engine: Utilizes specific Fibonacci ratios (0.618, 1.618, 2.618) applied to ATR, creating a multi-layered volatility envelope potentially resonant with market harmonics. The averaged and EMA-smoothed result (`smoothed_supertrend`) provides a robust, dynamic trend baseline and context filter.
// Key Components: Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend & Smoothing
average_supertrend = (supertrend1 + supertrend2 + supertrend3) / 3
smoothed_supertrend = ta.ema(average_supertrend, st_smooth_length)
2.2. Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) Channel: Provides dynamic market context. The `ama_midline` serves as a key filter in the entry logic, confirming the broader trend bias relative to adaptive price action. Extended Fibonacci levels derived from the channel width offer potential dynamic S/R zones.
// Key Component: AMA Midline
ama_midline = (ama_high_band + ama_low_band) / 2
2.3. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Filter Suite: An optional but powerful validation layer (RSI, MACD, Volume) assessed on a lower timeframe. Acts as a **validation cascade** – signals must pass all enabled filters simultaneously.
2.4. High-Confluence Entry Logic: The core innovation. A pullback entry requires a specific sequence and validation:
Price interaction with `average_supertrend` and recovery above/below `smoothed_supertrend`.
Price confirmation relative to the `ama_midline`.
Simultaneous validation by all enabled MTF filters.
// Simplified Long Entry Logic Example (incorporates key elements)
long_entry_condition = enable_long_positions and
(low < average_supertrend and close > smoothed_supertrend) and // Pullback & Recovery
(close > ama_midline and close > ama_midline) and // AMA Confirmation
(rsi_filter_long_ok and macd_filter_long_ok and volume_filter_ok) // MTF Validation
This strict, multi-stage confluence significantly elevates signal quality compared to simpler pullback approaches.

3. Realistic Implementation and Performance Potential
AFPS is designed for practical application, incorporating realistic defaults and highlighting performance potential with crucial context:
3.1. Realistic Default Strategy Settings:
The script includes responsible default parameters:
strategy('Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System - FibonacciFlux', shorttitle = "AFPS", ...,
initial_capital = 10000, // Accessible capital
default_qty_type = strategy.percent_of_equity, // Equity-based risk
default_qty_value = 4, // Default 4% equity risk per initial trade
commission_type = strategy.commission.percent,
commission_value = 0.03, // Realistic commission
slippage = 2, // Realistic slippage
pyramiding = 2 // Limited pyramiding allowed
)
Note: The default 4% risk (`default_qty_value = 4`) requires careful user assessment and adjustment based on individual risk tolerance.
3.2. Historical Performance Insights & Institutional Potential:
Backtesting provides insights into historical behavior under specific conditions (always specify Asset/Timeframe/Dates when sharing results):
Default Performance Example: With defaults, historical tests might show characteristics like Overall PF ~1.38, Max DD ~1.16%, with potential Long/Short performance variance (e.g., Long PF 1.6+, Short PF < 1).
Optimized MTF Filter Performance: Crucially, historical simulations demonstrate that meticulous configuration of the MTF filters (particularly RSI and potentially others depending on market) can significantly enhance performance. Under specific, optimized MTF filter settings combined with appropriate risk management (e.g., 7.5% risk), historical tests have indicated the potential to achieve **Profit Factors exceeding 2.6**, alongside controlled drawdowns (e.g., ~1.32%). This level of performance, if consistently achievable (which requires ongoing adaptation), aligns with metrics often sought in institutional trading environments.
Disclaimer Reminder: These results are strictly historical simulations. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Achieving high performance requires careful parameter tuning, adaptation to changing markets, and robust risk management.
3.3. Emphasizing Risk Management:
Effective use of AFPS mandates active risk management. Utilize the built-in Stop Loss, Take Profit, and Trailing Stop features. The `pyramiding = 2` setting requires particularly diligent oversight. Do not rely solely on default settings.
4. Conclusion: Advancing Trend Pullback Strategies
The Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System (AFPS) offers a sophisticated, theoretically grounded, and highly adaptable framework for identifying and executing high-probability trend pullback trades. Its unique blend of Fibonacci resonance, adaptive context, and multi-dimensional MTF filtering represents a significant advancement over conventional methods. While requiring thoughtful implementation and risk management, AFPS provides discerning traders with a powerful tool potentially capable of achieving institutional-level performance characteristics under optimized conditions.

Log Regression Oscillator Channel [BigBeluga]
This unique overlay tool blends logarithmic trend analysis with dynamic oscillator behavior. It projects RSI, MFI, or Stochastic lines directly into a log regression channel on the price chart — offering an intuitive way to detect overbought/oversold momentum within the broader price structure.
🔵Key Features:
Logarithmic Regression Channel:
➣ Draws a trend-based channel using logarithmic regression, adapting to price growth curvature over time.
➣ Features upper, lower, and optional midline boundaries to visualize trend flow and range extremes.
Oscillator Overlay (RSI / MFI / Stochastic):
➣ Projects your chosen oscillator inside the channel using dynamic polylines.
➣ Allows switching between RSI, Money Flow Index, or Stochastic for versatile momentum insight.
Threshold-Based Scaling:
➣ The top and bottom of the channel represent traditional oscillator thresholds (e.g., RSI 70/30).
➣ Users can modify the scale in settings to customize what "overbought" or "oversold" means visually.
Signal Line Integration:
➣ Adds a yellow moving average (signal line) for smoother confirmation of oscillator turns.
➣ Helps identify divergence, momentum shifts, and fakeouts with better clarity.
Live Oscillator Readout:
➣ Displays the real-time oscillator value at the right edge of the chart.
➣ Ensures traders stay aware of current momentum levels without switching panels.
🔵Usage:
Momentum Context:
➣ When the oscillator touches the upper regression band, it may signal local overbought pressure.
➣ Touching the lower band may indicate oversold conditions within the current log trend.
Divergence Detection:
➣ Use the oscillator’s behavior relative to the channel slope to spot divergence from price.
➣ For example, RSI rising inside a falling channel can flag early trend shifts.
Trend-Sensitive Entries:
➣ Combine oscillator signals with log channel direction to filter trades in trend alignment.
➣ Signal line crossovers inside the channel act as early warning for momentum turns.
The Log Regression Oscillator Channel transforms how traders view classic momentum tools. By embedding oscillators into a logarithmic trend structure, it offers unmatched clarity on momentum positioning relative to price expansion. Ideal for swing traders, mean-reverters, or trend followers looking to sharpen entries and exits with style.
Volume Flow with Bollinger Bands and EMA Cross SignalsThe Volume Flow with Bollinger Bands and EMA Cross Signals indicator is a custom technical analysis tool designed to identify potential buy and sell signals based on several key components:
Volume Flow: This component combines price movement and trading volume to create a signal that indicates the strength or weakness of price movements. When the price is rising with increasing volume, it suggests strong buying activity, whereas falling prices with increasing volume indicate strong selling pressure.
Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands consist of three lines:
The Basis (middle line), which is a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the price over a set period.
The Upper Band, which is the Basis plus a multiple of the standard deviation (typically 2).
The Lower Band, which is the Basis minus a multiple of the standard deviation. Bollinger Bands help identify periods of high volatility and potential overbought/oversold conditions. When the price touches the upper band, it might indicate that the market is overbought, while touching the lower band might indicate oversold conditions.
EMA Crossovers: The script includes two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
Fast EMA: A shorter-term EMA, typically more sensitive to price changes.
Slow EMA: A longer-term EMA, responding slower to price changes. The crossover of the Fast EMA crossing above the Slow EMA (bullish crossover) signals a potential buy opportunity, while the Fast EMA crossing below the Slow EMA (bearish crossover) signals a potential sell opportunity.
Background Color and Candle Color: The indicator highlights the chart's background with specific colors based on the signals:
Green background for buy signals.
Yellow background for sell signals. Additionally, the candles are colored green for buy signals and yellow for sell signals to visually reinforce the trade opportunities.
Buy/Sell Labels: Small labels are placed on the chart:
"BUY" label in green is placed below the bar when a buy signal is generated.
"SELL" label in yellow is placed above the bar when a sell signal is generated.
Working of the Indicator:
Volume Flow Calculation: The Volume Flow is calculated by multiplying the price change (current close minus the previous close) with the volume. This product is then smoothed with a Simple Moving Average (SMA) over a user-defined period (length). The result is then multiplied by a multiplier to adjust its sensitivity.
Price Change = close - close
Volume Flow = Price Change * Volume
Smoothed Volume Flow = SMA(Volume Flow, length)
The Volume Flow Signal is then: Smooth Volume Flow * Multiplier
This calculation represents the buying or selling pressure in the market.
Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands are calculated using the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing price (basis) and the Standard Deviation (stdev) of the price over a period defined by the user (bb_length).
Basis (Middle Band) = SMA(close, bb_length)
Upper Band = Basis + (bb_std_dev * Stdev)
Lower Band = Basis - (bb_std_dev * Stdev)
The upper and lower bands are plotted alongside the price to identify the price's volatility. When the price is near the upper band, it could be overbought, and near the lower band, it could be oversold.
EMA Crossovers: The Fast EMA and Slow EMA are calculated using the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) function. The crossovers are detected by checking:
Buy Signal (Bullish Crossover): When the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
Sell Signal (Bearish Crossover): When the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
The long_condition variable checks if the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA, and the short_condition checks if it crosses below.
Visual Signals:
Background Color: The background is colored green for a buy signal and yellow for a sell signal. This gives an immediate visual cue to the trader.
Bar Color: The candles are colored green for buy signals and yellow for sell signals.
Labels:
A "BUY" label in green appears below the bar when the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
A "SELL" label in yellow appears above the bar when the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
Summary of Buy/Sell Logic:
Buy Signal:
The Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA (bullish crossover).
Volume flow is positive, indicating buying pressure.
Background turns green and candles are colored green.
A "BUY" label appears below the bar.
Sell Signal:
The Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA (bearish crossover).
Volume flow is negative, indicating selling pressure.
Background turns yellow and candles are colored yellow.
A "SELL" label appears above the bar.
Usage of the Indicator:
This indicator is designed to help traders identify potential entry (buy) and exit (sell) points based on:
The interaction of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).
The strength and direction of Volume Flow.
Price volatility using Bollinger Bands.
By combining these components, the indicator provides a comprehensive view of market conditions, helping traders make informed decisions on when to enter and exit trades.
LUX CLARA - EMA + VWAP (No ATR Filter) - v6EMA STRAT SHOUT OUTOUTLIERSSSSS
Overview:
an intraday strategy built around two core principles:
Trend Confirmation using the 50 EMA (Exponential Moving Average) in relation to the VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price).
Entry Signals triggered by the 8 EMA crossing the 50 EMA in the direction of that confirmed trend.
Key Logic:
Bullish Trend if the 50 EMA is above VWAP. Only long entries are allowed when the 8 EMA crosses above the 50 EMA during that bullish phase.
Bearish Trend if the 50 EMA is below VWAP. Only short entries are allowed when the 8 EMA crosses below the 50 EMA during that bearish phase.
Intraday Focus: Trades are restricted to a user-defined session window (default 7:30 AM–11:30 AM), aligning entries/exits with peak intraday liquidity.
Exit Rule: Positions close automatically when the 8 EMA crosses back in the opposite direction of the entry.
Why It Works:
EMA + VWAP helps detect both immediate momentum (EMAs) and overall institutional bias (VWAP).
By confining trades to a set intraday window, the strategy aims to capture morning volatility while avoiding choppy afternoon or overnight sessions.
Customization:
Users can adjust EMA lengths, session times, or incorporate stops/targets for additional risk management.
It can be tested on various symbols and intraday timeframes to gauge performance and robustness.

VWAP StrategyVWAP and volatility filters for structured intraday trades.
How the Strategy Works
1. VWAP Anchored to Session
VWAP is calculated from the start of each trading day.
Standard deviations are used to create bands above/below the VWAP.
2. Entry Triggers: Al Brooks H1/H2 and L1/L2
H1/H2 (Long Entry): Opens below 2nd lower deviation, closes above it.
L1/L2 (Short Entry): Opens above 2nd upper deviation, closes below it.
3. Volatility Filter (ATR)
Skips trades when deviation bands are too tight (< 3 ATRs).
4. Stop Loss
Based on the signal bar’s high/low ± stop buffer.
Longs: signalBarLow - stopBuffer
Shorts: signalBarHigh + stopBuffer
5. Take Profit / Exit Target
Exit logic is customizable per side:
VWAP, Deviation Band, or None
6. Safety Exit
Exits early if X consecutive bars go against the trade.
Longs: X red bars
Shorts: X green bars
Explanation of Strategy Inputs
- Stop Buffer: Distance from signal bar for stop-loss.
- Long/Short Exit Rule: VWAP, Deviation Band, or None
- Long/Short Target Deviation: Standard deviation for target exit.
- Enable Safety Exit: Toggle emergency exit.
- Opposing Bars: Number of opposing candles before safety exit.
- Allow Long/Short Trades: Enable or disable entry side.
- Show VWAP/Entry Bands: Toggle visual aids.
- Highlight Low Vol Zones: Orange shading for low volatility skips.
Tuning Tips
- Stop buffer: Use 1–5 points.
- Target deviation: Start with VWAP. In strong trends use 2nd deviation and turn off the counter-trend entry.
- Safety exit: 3 bars recommended.
- Disable short/long side to focus on one type of reversal.
Backtest Setup Suggestions
- initial_capital = 2000
- default_qty_value = 1 (fixed contracts or percent-of-equity)

02 SMC + BB Breakout (Improved)This strategy combines Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with Bollinger Band breakouts to identify potential trading opportunities. SMC focuses on identifying key price levels and market structure shifts, while Bollinger Bands help pinpoint overbought/oversold conditions and potential breakout points. The strategy also incorporates higher timeframe trend confirmation to filter out trades that go against the prevailing trend.
Key Components:
Bollinger Bands:
Calculated using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing price and a standard deviation multiplier.
The strategy uses the upper and lower bands to identify potential breakout points.
The SMA (basis) acts as a centerline and potential support/resistance level.
The fill between the upper and lower bands can be toggled by the user.
Higher Timeframe Trend Confirmation:
The strategy allows for optional confirmation of the current trend using a higher timeframe (e.g., daily).
It calculates the SMA of the higher timeframe's closing prices.
A bullish trend is confirmed if the higher timeframe's closing price is above its SMA.
This helps filter out trades that go against the prevailing long-term trend.
Smart Money Concepts (SMC):
Order Blocks:
Simplified as recent price clusters, identified by the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period.
These levels are considered potential areas of support or resistance.
Liquidity Zones (Swing Highs/Lows):
Identified by recent swing highs and lows, indicating areas where liquidity may be present.
The Swing highs and lows are calculated based on user defined lookback periods.
Market Structure Shift (MSS):
Identifies potential changes in market structure.
A bullish MSS occurs when the closing price breaks above a previous swing high.
A bearish MSS occurs when the closing price breaks below a previous swing low.
The swing high and low values used for the MSS are calculated based on the user defined swing length.
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry:
The closing price crosses above the upper Bollinger Band.
If higher timeframe confirmation is enabled, the higher timeframe trend must be bullish.
A bullish MSS must have occurred.
Short Entry:
The closing price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band.
If higher timeframe confirmation is enabled, the higher timeframe trend must be bearish.
A bearish MSS must have occurred.
Exit Conditions:
Long Exit:
The closing price crosses below the Bollinger Band basis.
Or the Closing price falls below 99% of the order block low.
Short Exit:
The closing price crosses above the Bollinger Band basis.
Or the closing price rises above 101% of the order block high.
Position Sizing:
The strategy calculates the position size based on a fixed percentage (5%) of the strategy's equity.
This helps manage risk by limiting the potential loss per trade.
Visualizations:
Bollinger Bands (upper, lower, and basis) are plotted on the chart.
SMC elements (order blocks, swing highs/lows) are plotted as lines, with user-adjustable visibility.
Entry and exit signals are plotted as shapes on the chart.
The Bollinger band fill opacity is adjustable by the user.
Trading Logic:
The strategy aims to capitalize on Bollinger Band breakouts that are confirmed by SMC signals and higher timeframe trend. It looks for breakouts that align with potential market structure shifts and key price levels (order blocks, swing highs/lows). The higher timeframe filter helps avoid trades that go against the overall trend.
In essence, the strategy attempts to identify high-probability breakout trades by combining momentum (Bollinger Bands) with structural analysis (SMC) and trend confirmation.
Key User-Adjustable Parameters:
Bollinger Bands Length
Standard Deviation Multiplier
Higher Timeframe
Higher Timeframe Confirmation (on/off)
SMC Elements Visibility (on/off)
Order block lookback length.
Swing lookback length.
Bollinger band fill opacity.

ADR Nivele Horizontale dhe EMAThe user provided a Pine Script code for an indicator called "ADR Nivele Horizontale dhe EMA". The task is to explain how this code works. Hmm, first, I need to understand what this indicator does. The title mentions ADR levels and EMA, so it's probably combining horizontal lines based on Average Daily Range and some Exponential Moving Averages.
Looking at the code, the first part is the indicator declaration with version 6. The settings include an ADR period, levels above and below the mid, and line style. Then there's a section for calculations. They request daily high and low to compute the daily range. The ADR is the SMA of the daily range over the specified period. The mid is the average of daily high and low. The adr_val is half of ADR, maybe to create symmetrical levels around the mid.
Next, they create arrays for lines and labels above and below the mid. The loops go from 1 to levels_above/below, calculate each level, draw lines and labels. The mid line is also drawn with a different color. Then, there are several EMAs plotted: 13, 50, 200, 400, 600, 800, each with different colorsWait, but in Pine Script, when you use arrays to store lines and labels, you have to manage them properly to avoid repainting or memory issues. The code uses array.concat to add new lines and labels each bar. However, since this code is running on each bar, the for loops might be creating multiple lines each time, leading to too many objects. Oh right, but they use var to initialize the arrays, so they are only initialized once. Wait, no. The var keyword initializes the variable once, but in each iteration, they are concatenating new lines. Wait, no: the for loops are inside the main script, which runs on each bar. So every time a new bar is processed, the loops will run again, adding new lines and labels. That's a problem because each bar would create new lines, leading to an ever-increasing number of lines, which could hit the maximum limit (max_lines_count is set to 20, but maybe they have more bars). Oh, the indicator has max_lines_count=20, but the code might be creating multiple lines per bar. So maybe the code isn't handling the line management correctly. For example, if levels_above is 2, then each bar would create 2 new lines above and 2 below, plus the mid line. Over 20 bars, that's way over 20 lines. So this could cause the indicator to stop drawing after 20 lines. The user might not have realized that the lines are being recreated every bar, leading to a buildup. But perhaps the original code intended to have the lines update each bar, extending to the current bar. Let's see: in line.new, they use bar_index as the starting x1 and bar_index as x2. So each line is drawn from the previous bar's index to the current one. But since this is done on every bar, each line is only one bar long. Wait, no. Because on each new bar, the code creates a new line from the previous bar's index (bar_index , which is now the bar before the current one) to the current bar_index. So each line is just a segment from the previous bar to the current bar. But when the next bar comes, a new line is created again. So the result is that each level line is a series of one-bar-length segments, which might not be intended. The user probably wants continuous lines that extend from the left to the right, not just per bar. So this approach is incorrect. The correct way would be to have a line that starts at the first bar of the calculation and extends to the right, updating each bar. But the current code creates a new line each bar, leading to multiple short lines instead of one continuous line. That's a mistake.
So the main issue here is that the code is generating a new line segment for each bar, which is not efficient and would quickly hit the line limit. To fix this, instead of creating a new line every bar, they should create the line once and then update its position each bar. But in Pine Script, you can't directly update a line after it's created; instead, you need to track the line ID and use line.set_xy() to extend it. However, the current code uses array.concat to add new lines each bar, which isn't the right approach.
Therefore, the code as written will create multiple short lines instead of continuous horizontal lines. The correct approach for horizontal levels that extend to the right is to create the line once, starting at a certain bar and extending indefinitely, or to update the line's end point each new bar. But in Pine Script, you can't extend lines infinitely; you have to manage them each bar. Alternatively, using the 'line.extend' style might help, but I think the original code's logic is flawed here.
Additionally, the EMA part is straightforward: plotting multiple EMAs with different periods. That part should work as expected.
So the explanation should mention that the ADR levels are calculated based on the daily high and low, then the code attempts to draw horizontal lines above and below the mid-point. However, the way the lines are drawn may lead to multiple short segments instead of continuous lines, potentially causing performance issues or hitting the maximum line count. The EMAs are plotted correctly with various periods..
Multi-TF Support LevelsThe Multi-TF Support Levels indicator identifies and displays key support levels based on swing lows across three user-selected timeframes.
How it works:
Input Parameters:
Lookback Period (100) — historical depth to search for swing lows.
Timeframe 1-3 (15, 45, 240) — three timeframes (e.g., 15min, 45min, 4hr).
Logic:
For each timeframe, a swing low is detected: the lowest price within the lookback period that is also lower than the two preceding candles.
Support levels update dynamically when new swing lows are formed.
The most recent levels are plotted as horizontal cross marks (blue, red, green for each timeframe).
Purpose: Visualize significant support zones from multiple timeframes to identify confluent areas for trading decisions.
Индикатор Multi-TF Support Levels (Мультитаймфреймовые уровни поддержки) определяет и отображает ключевые уровни поддержки на основе минимумов свингов (swing lows) на трёх выбранных таймфреймах.
Как работает:
Входные параметры:
Lookback Period (100) — глубина анализа для поиска минимумов.
Timeframe 1-3 (15, 45, 240) — три таймфрейма (например, 15 минут, 45 минут, 4 часа).
Логика:
Для каждого таймфрейма определяется свинг-минимум: цена, которая является самой низкой за период lookback и ниже двух предыдущих свечей.
Уровни поддержки обновляются при появлении новых свинг-минимумов.
Последние актуальные уровни отображаются на графике в виде горизонтальных линий-крестиков (синий, красный, зелёный для каждого таймфрейма).
Цель: Визуализировать значимые уровни поддержки с разных таймфреймов для поиска зон "конфлюэнса".
PowerZone Trading StrategyExplanation of the PowerZone Trading Strategy for Your Users
The PowerZone Trading Strategy is an automated trading strategy that detects strong price movements (called "PowerZones") and generates signals to enter a long (buy) or short (sell) position, complete with predefined take profit and stop loss levels. Here’s how it works, step by step:
1. What is a PowerZone?
A "PowerZone" (PZ) is a zone on the chart where the price has shown a significant and consistent movement over a specific number of candles (bars). There are two types:
Bullish PowerZone (Bullish PZ): Occurs when the price rises consistently over several candles after an initial bearish candle.
Bearish PowerZone (Bearish PZ): Occurs when the price falls consistently over several candles after an initial bullish candle.
The code analyzes:
A set number of candles (e.g., 5, adjustable via "Periods").
A minimum percentage move (adjustable via "Min % Move for PowerZone") to qualify as a strong zone.
Whether to use the full candle range (highs and lows) or just open/close prices (toggle with "Use Full Range ").
2. How Does It Detect PowerZones?
Bullish PowerZone:
Looks for an initial bearish candle (close below open).
Checks that the next candles (e.g., 5) are all bullish (close above open).
Ensures the total price movement exceeds the minimum percentage set.
Defines a range: from the high (or open) to the low of the initial candle.
Bearish PowerZone:
Looks for an initial bullish candle (close above open).
Checks that the next candles are all bearish (close below open).
Ensures the total price movement exceeds the minimum percentage.
Defines a range: from the high to the low (or close) of the initial candle.
These zones are drawn on the chart with lines: green or white for bullish, red or blue for bearish, depending on the color scheme ("DARK" or "BRIGHT").
3. When Does It Enter a Trade?
The strategy waits for a breakout from the PowerZone range to enter a trade:
Buy (Long): When the price breaks above the high of a Bullish PowerZone.
Sell (Short): When the price breaks below the low of a Bearish PowerZone.
The position size is set to 100% of available equity (adjustable in the code).
4. Take Profit and Stop Loss
Take Profit (TP): Calculated as a multiple (adjustable via "Take Profit Factor," default 1.5) of the PowerZone height. For example:
For a buy, TP = Entry price + (PZ height × 1.5).
For a sell, TP = Entry price - (PZ height × 1.5).
Stop Loss (SL): Calculated as a multiple (adjustable via "Stop Loss Factor," default 1.0) of the PZ height, placed below the range for buys or above for sells.
5. Visualization on the Chart
PowerZones are displayed with lines on the chart (you can hide them with "Show Bullish Channel" or "Show Bearish Channel").
An optional info panel ("Show Info Panel") displays key levels: PZ high and low, TP, and SL.
You can also enable brief documentation on the chart ("Show Documentation") explaining the basic rules.
6. Alerts
The code generates automatic alerts in TradingView:
For a bullish breakout: "Bullish PowerZone Breakout - LONG!"
For a bearish breakdown: "Bearish PowerZone Breakdown - SHORT!"
7. Customization
You can tweak:
The number of candles to detect a PZ ("Periods").
The minimum percentage move ("Min % Move").
Whether to use highs/lows or just open/close ("Use Full Range").
The TP and SL factors.
The color scheme and what elements to display on the chart.
Practical Example
Imagine you set "Periods = 5" and "Min % Move = 2%":
An initial bearish candle appears, followed by 5 consecutive bullish candles.
The total move exceeds 2%.
A Bullish PowerZone is drawn with a high and low.
If the price breaks above the high, you enter a long position with a TP 1.5 times the PZ height and an SL equal to the height below.
The system executes the trade and exits automatically at TP or SL.
Conclusion
This strategy is great for capturing strong price movements after consolidation or momentum zones. It’s automated, visual, and customizable, making it useful for both beginner and advanced traders. Try it out and adjust it to fit your trading style!
