Moving Average Simple Tool [OmegaTools]This TradingView script is a versatile Moving Average Tool that offers users multiple moving average types and a customizable overbought and oversold (OB/OS) sensitivity feature. It is designed to assist in identifying potential price trends, reversals, and momentum by using different average calculations and providing visual indicators for deviation levels. Below is a detailed breakdown of the settings, functionality, and visual elements within the Moving Average Simple Tool.
Indicator Overview
Indicator Name: Moving Average Simple Tool
Short Title: MA Tool
Purpose: Provides a choice of six moving average types with configurable sensitivity, which helps traders identify trend direction, potential reversal zones, and overbought or oversold conditions.
Input Parameters
Source (src): This option allows the user to select the data source for the moving average calculation. By default, it is set to close, but users can choose other options like open, high, low, or any custom price data.
Length (lnt): Defines the period length for the moving average. By default, it is set to 21 periods, allowing users to adjust the moving average sensitivity to either shorter or longer periods.
Average Type (mode): This input defines the moving average calculation type. Six types of averages are available:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
WMA (Weighted Moving Average)
VWMA (Volume-Weighted Moving Average)
RMA (Rolling Moving Average)
Middle Line: Calculates the average between the highest and lowest price over the period specified in Length. This is useful for a mid-range line rather than a traditional moving average.
Sensitivity (sens): This parameter controls the sensitivity of the overbought and oversold levels. The sensitivity value can range from 1 to 40, where a lower value represents a higher sensitivity and a higher value allows for smoother OB/OS zones.
Color Settings:
OS (Oversold Color, upc): The color applied to deviation areas that fall below the oversold threshold.
OB (Overbought Color, dnc): The color applied to deviation areas that exceed the overbought threshold.
Middle Line Color (midc): A gradient color that visually blends between overbought and oversold colors for smoother visual transitions.
Calculation Components
Moving Average Calculation (mu): Based on the chosen Average Type, this calculation derives the moving average or middle line value for the selected source and length.
Deviation (dev): The deviation of the source value from the moving average is calculated. This is useful to determine whether the current price is significantly above or below the average, signaling potential buying or selling opportunities.
Overbought (ob) and Oversold (os) Levels: These levels are calculated using a linear percentile interpolation based on the deviation, length, and sensitivity inputs. The higher the sensitivity, the narrower the overbought and oversold zones, allowing users to capture more frequent signals.
Visual Elements
Moving Average Line (mu): This line represents the moving average based on the selected calculation method and is plotted with a dynamic color based on deviation thresholds. When the deviation crosses into overbought or oversold zones, it shifts to the corresponding OB/OS colors, providing a visual indication of potential trend reversals.
Deviation Plot (dev): This plot visualizes the deviation values as a column plot, with colors matching the overbought, oversold, or neutral states. This helps users to quickly assess whether the price is trending or reverting back to its mean.
Overbought (ob) and Oversold (os) Levels: These levels are plotted as fixed lines, helping users identify when the deviation crosses into overbought or oversold zones.
Centered Oscillators
Stockbee M20The Stockbee M20 Scan is a momentum scan designed to identify stocks with established short-term momentum. It highlights stocks that have moved significantly over the past 30 days, with bullish momentum indicated by a 20%+ increase from the lowest price and bearish momentum by a 20%+ decrease from the highest price. This scan helps traders spot potential setups and build watchlists of stocks that may offer continued movement.
This M20 Indicator serves as a study tool to visualize when stocks historically met these M20 conditions. It marks on the chart where a stock would have triggered the M20 scan, allowing traders to review past momentum patterns and evaluate current movers. An optional Keltner Channel filter further refines signals by excluding stocks that are overextended from their mean price, focusing only on entries closer to the average price.
M20 Conditions and Filter :
M20 Bullish: Price is 20%+ above the lowest point in the past 30 days.
M20 Bearish: Price is 20%+ below the highest point in the past 30 days.
Keltner Channel Filter: Exclude stocks trading outside the 20-period EMA ± 2x 10-period ATR bands.
Madhan_HMT_Ultimate_StrategyThis indicator is a trend-following strategy designed to identify buy and sell signals based on price action relative to dynamic channels and smoothing mechanisms. It uses two separate sets of parameters that adjust to market conditions, with each set of parameters acting as an independent trend filter. The indicator creates arrows on the chart to signal potential trade entries, with these arrows appearing when the price crosses certain thresholds established by the indicator's internal calculation.
The strategy can be customized with various parameters, including:
Stop loss and take profit levels based on multiple options: ATR (Average True Range), fixed points, or percentage-based values.
Trading mode options that allow the user to choose whether the strategy trades both long and short positions, or restricts trades to only one direction (long or short).
The indicator visually represents the entry levels, stop loss, and take profit levels, with backgrounds filling to highlight potential risk and reward areas. By adjusting the parameters, traders can tailor the indicator to suit different market conditions and their risk tolerance.
Mousanoo Momentum HistogramThe Mousanoo Momentum Histogram is a tool that visualizes higher time frame momentum by a factor of 2,3,4,5, or 6. The default is 3. This tool is best used in trend following systems. Optimally you find entry very near when the histogram bar has made a new print above or below the zero line after being on the opposite side of the zero lline. When this happens, maybe try waiting until three bars have printed for confirmation, you can be reasonably assured you have caught near the bottom or top of a new trend.

It displays results in a table format showing CCI values and states (Overbought, Oversold, Neutral), allowing traders to quickly visualize buying-selling pressure across all timeframes.
X-Force Selector中文說明
X-Force 篩選者 是基於 Mark Minervini 概念設計的強勢標的篩選指標,旨在幫助交易者捕捉市場中的極端強勢標的。此指標運用多重篩選條件,使交易者能在價格達到特定關鍵位置時精準進場,專注於上漲動能強勁、突破阻力較小的標的。
指標篩選條件
100% 關鍵價位:當價格位於365根K棒的最低點的100%之上時,顯示該標的處於強勢區域,具備顯著的上漲動能。
25% 高點價位:同時,當價格位於365根K棒的高點以下25%之上時,代表該標的上方阻力較小,是一個潛在的突破信號。
滿足以上兩個條件的標的才會被視為進場機會,這符合 Minervini 所強調的「專注於強勢標的」的策略。Minervini 的概念強調當標的價格突破關鍵價位時,可能帶來更高的回報潛力,且風險相對較小。
加密貨幣與時間周期的應用
在加密貨幣交易中,1小時到4小時的小時間框架適合使用100%、66%、33%這些百分比範圍參數,以反映市場的高波動特性。對於更短周期,建議進一步縮小百分比,以提高指標對短期波動的敏感度,並增強篩選結果的準確性。

English Description
X-Force Selector is a powerful trend-filtering indicator inspired by Mark Minervini’s trading concepts, designed to help traders capture assets with extreme strength in the market. By applying multiple filtering criteria, this indicator enables precise entry decisions when price reaches specific key levels, focusing on assets with strong upward momentum and minimal resistance.
Indicator Selection Criteria
100% Key Price Level: When the price is above 100% of the lowest low over the past 365 bars, it indicates the asset is in a strong zone with substantial upward momentum.
25% High Price Level: Additionally, when the price is within 25% below the 365-bar high, it signals reduced resistance above, indicating potential for a breakout.
Assets meeting both criteria are considered potential entry opportunities, aligning with Minervini's strategy of “focusing on strong assets.” Minervini’s concept emphasizes capturing high-potential assets as they break through critical levels, aiming for higher returns with relatively low risk.
Application to Cryptocurrency and Timeframes
In cryptocurrency trading, shorter timeframes such as 1H to 4H are well-suited for the 100%, 66%, and 33% thresholds, reflecting the high volatility of crypto markets. For even smaller timeframes, it is recommended to reduce these percentages to enhance the indicator’s sensitivity to short-term fluctuations, improving the accuracy of filtered results.
Flexible Filtering with a Battle-Ready Style
With a design inspired by Minervini's concepts and a battle-ready scanning approach, the X-Force Selector precisely locks onto high-potential breakout candidates. This indicator is ideal for trend-following traders, especially those applying Mark Minervini’s strategies, enabling them to concentrate on assets with the strongest upward momentum for precise entry decisions.
Pulse DPO: Major Cycle Tops and Bottoms█ OVERVIEW
Pulse DPO is an oscillator designed to highlight Major Cycle Tops and Bottoms .
It works on any market driven by cycles. It operates by removing the short-term noise from the price action and focuses on the market's cyclical nature.
This indicator uses a Normalized version of the Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) on a 0-100 scale, making it easier to identify major tops and bottoms.
Credit: The DPO was first developed by William Blau in 1991.
█ HOW TO READ IT
Pulse DPO oscillates in the range between 0 and 100. A value in the upper section signals an OverBought (OB) condition, while a value in the lower section signals an OverSold (OS) condition.
Generally, the triggering of OB and OS conditions don't necessarily translate into swing tops and bottoms, but rather suggest caution on approaching a market that might be overextended.
Nevertheless, this indicator has been customized to trigger the signal only during remarkable top and bottom events.
I suggest using it on the Daily Time Frame , but you're free to experiment with this indicator on other time frames.
The indicator has Built-in Alerts to signal the crossing of the Thresholds. Please don't act on an isolated signal, but rather integrate it to work in conjunction with the indicators present in your Trading Plan.
█ OB SIGNAL ON: ENTERING OVERBOUGHT CONDITION
When Pulse DPO crosses Above the Top Threshold it Triggers ON the OB signal. At this point the oscillator line shifts to OB color.
When Pulse DPO enters the OB Zone, please beware! In this Area the Major Players usually become Active Sellers to the Public. While the OB signal is On, it might be wise to Consider Selling a portion or the whole Long Position.
Please note that even though this indicator aims to focus on major tops and bottoms, a strong trending market might trigger the OB signal and stay with it for a long time. That's especially true on young markets and on bubble-mode markets.
█ OB SIGNAL OFF: EXITING OVERBOUGHT CONDITION
When Pulse DPO crosses Below the Top Threshold it Triggers OFF the OB signal. At this point the oscillator line shifts to its normal color.
When Pulse DPO exits the OB Zone, please beware because a Major Top might just have occurred. In this Area the Major Players usually become Aggressive Sellers. They might wind up any remaining Long Positions and Open new Short Positions.
This might be a good area to Open Shorts or to Close/Reverse any remaining Long Position. Whatever you choose to do, it's usually best to act quickly because the market is prone to enter into panic mode.
█ OS SIGNAL ON: ENTERING OVERSOLD CONDITION
When Pulse DPO crosses Below the Bottom Threshold it Triggers ON the OS signal. At this point the oscillator line shifts to OS color.
When Pulse DPO enters the OS Zone, please beware because in this Area the Major Players usually become Active Buyers accumulating Long Positions from the desperate Public.
While the OS signal is On, it might be wise to Consider becoming a Buyer or to implement a Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) Strategy to build a Long Position towards the next Cycle. In contrast to the tops, the OS state usually takes longer to resolve a major bottom.
█ OS SIGNAL OFF: EXITING OVERSOLD CONDITION
When Pulse DPO crosses Above the Bottom Threshold it Triggers OFF the OS signal. At this point the oscillator line shifts to its normal color.
When Pulse DPO exits the OS Zone, please beware because a Major Bottom might already be in place. In this Area the Major Players become Aggresive Buyers. They might wind up any remaining Short Positions and Open new Long Positions.
This might be a good area to Open Longs or to Close/Reverse any remaining Short Positions.
█ WHY WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN THIS INDICATOR?
This indicator is built over a solid foundation capable of signaling Major Cycle Tops and Bottoms across many markets. Let's see some examples:
Early Bitcoin Years: From 0 to 1242
This chart is in logarithmic mode in order to properly display various exponential cycles. Pulse DPO is properly signaling the major early highs from 9-Jun-2011 at 31.50, to the next one on 9-Apr-2013 at 240 and the epic top from 29-Nov-2013 at 1242.
Due to the massive price movements, the OB condition stays pinned during most of the exponential price action. But as you can see, the OB condition quickly vanishes once the Cycle Top has been reached. As the market matures, the OB condition becomes more exceptional and triggers much closer from the Cycle Top.
With regards to Cycle Bottoms, the early bottom of 2 after having peaked at 31.50 doesn’t get captured by the indicator. That is the only cycle bottom that escapes the Pulse DPO when the bottom threshold is set at a value of 5. In that event, the oscillator low reached 6.95.
Bitcoin Adoption Spreading: From 257 to 73k
This chart is in logarithmic mode in order to properly display various exponential cycles. Pulse DPO is properly signaling all the major highs from 17-Dec-2017 at 19k, to the next one on 14-Apr-2021 at 64k and the most recent top from 9-Nov-2021 at 68k.
During the massive run of 2017, the OB condition still stayed triggered for a few weeks on each swing top. But on the next cycles it started to signal only for a few days before each swing top actually happened. The OB condition during the last cycle top triggered only for 3 days. Therefore the signal grows in focus as the market matures.
At the time of publishing this indicator, Bitcoin printed a new All Time High (ATH) on 13-Mar-2024 at 73k. That run didn’t trigger the OB condition. Therefore, if the indicator is correct the Bitcoin market still has some way to grow during the next months.
With regards to Cycle Bottoms, the bottom of 3k after having peaked at19k got captured within the wide OS zone. The bottom of 15k after having peaked at 68k got captured too within the OS accumulation area.
Gold
Pulse DPO behaves surprisingly well on a long standing market such as Gold. Moving back to the 197x years it’s been signaling most Cycle Tops and Bottoms with precision. During the last cycle, it shows topping at 2k and bottoming at 1.6k.
The current price action is signaling OB condition in the range of 2.5k to 2.7k. Looking at past cycles, it tends to trigger on and off at multiple swing tops until reaching the final cycle top. Therefore this might indicate the first wave within a potential gold run.
Oil
On the Oil market, we can see that most of the cycle tops and bottoms since the 80s got signaled. The only exception being the low from 2020 which didn’t trigger.
EURUSD
On Forex markets the Pulse DPO also behaves as expected. Looking back at EURUSD we can see the marketing triggering OB and OS conditions during major cycle tops and bottoms from recent times until the 80s.
S&P 500
On the S&P 500 the Pulse DPO catched the lows from 2016 and 2020. Looking at present price action, the recent ATH didn’t trigger the OB condition. Therefore, the indicator is allowing room for another leg up during the next months.
Amazon
On the Amazon chart the Pulse DPO is mirroring pretty accurately the major swings. Scrolling back to the early 2000s, this chart resembles early exponential swings in the crypto space.
Tesla
Moving onto a younger tech stock, Pulse DPO captures pretty accurately the major tops and bottoms. The chart is shown in logarithmic scale to better display the magnitude of the moves.

DeNoised Momentum [OmegaTools]The DeNoised Momentum by OmegaTools is a versatile tool designed to help traders evaluate momentum, acceleration, and noise-reduction levels in price movements. Using advanced mathematical smoothing techniques, this script provides a "de-noised" view of momentum by applying filters to reduce market noise. This helps traders gain insights into the strength and direction of price trends without the distractions of market volatility. Key components include a DeNoised Moving Average (MA), a Momentum line, and Acceleration bars to identify trend shifts more clearly.
Features:
- Momentum Line: Measures the percentage change of the de-noised source price over a specified look-back period, providing insights into trend direction.
- Acceleration (Ret) Bars: Visualizes the rate of change of the source price, helping traders identify momentum shifts.
- Normal and DeNoised Moving Averages: Two moving averages, one based on close price (Normal MA) and the other on de-noised data (DeNoised MA), enable a comparison of smoothed trends versus typical price movements.
- DeNoised Price Data Plot: Displays the current de-noised price, color-coded to indicate the relationship between the Normal and DeNoised MAs, which highlights bullish or bearish conditions.
Script Inputs:
- Length (lnt): Sets the period for calculations (default: 21). It influences the sensitivity of the momentum and moving averages. Higher values will smooth the indicator further, while lower values increase sensitivity to price changes.
The Length does not change the formula of the DeNoised Price Data, it only affects the indicators calculated on it.
Indicator Components:
1. Momentum (Blue/Red Line):
- Calculated using the log of the percentage change over the specified period.
- Blue color indicates positive momentum; red indicates negative momentum.
2. Acceleration (Gray Columns):
- Measures the short-term rate of change in momentum, shown as semi-transparent gray columns.
3. Moving Averages:
- Normal MA (Purple): A standard simple moving average (SMA) based on the close price over the selected period.
- DeNoised MA (Gray): An SMA of the de-noised source, reducing the effect of market noise.
4. DeNoised Price Data:
- Represented as colored circles, with blue indicating that the Normal MA is above the DeNoised MA (bullish) and red indicating the opposite (bearish).
Usage Guide:
1. Trend Identification:
- Use the Momentum line to assess overall trend direction. Positive values indicate upward momentum, while negative values signal downward momentum.
- Compare the Normal and DeNoised MAs: when the Normal MA is above the DeNoised MA, it indicates a bullish trend, and vice versa for bearish trends.
2. Entry and Exit Signals:
- A change in the Momentum line's color from blue to red (or vice versa) may indicate potential entry or exit points.
- Observe the DeNoised Price Data circles for early signs of a trend reversal based on the interaction between the Normal and DeNoised MAs.
3. Volatility and Noise Reduction:
- By utilizing the DeNoised MA and de-noised price data, this indicator helps filter out minor fluctuations and focus on larger price movements, improving decision-making in volatile markets.
Long Short MomentumThis indicator is designed to visualize short-term and long-term momentum trends.The indicator calculates two momentum lines based on customizable lengths: a short momentum (Short Momentum) over a smaller period and a long momentum (Long Momentum) over a longer period. These lines are plotted relative to the chosen price source, typically the closing price.
The histogram, colored dynamically based on momentum direction, gives visual cues:
Green: Both short and long momentum are positive, indicating an upward trend.
Red: Both are negative, indicating a downward trend.
Gray: Mixed momentum, suggesting potential trend indecision.

Z-Score RSI StrategyOverview
The Z-Score RSI Indicator is an experimental take on momentum analysis. By applying the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to a Z-score of price data, it measures how far prices deviate from their mean, scaled by standard deviation. This isn’t your traditional use of RSI, which is typically based on price data alone. Nevertheless, this unconventional approach can yield unique insights into market trends and potential reversals.
Theory and Interpretation
The RSI calculates the balance between average gains and losses over a set period, outputting values from 0 to 100. Typically, people look at the overbought or oversold levels to identify momentum extremes that might be likely to lead to a reversal. However, I’ve often found that RSI can be effective for trend-following when observing the crossover of its moving average with the midline or the crossover of the RSI with its own moving average. These crossovers can provide useful trend signals in various market conditions.
By combining RSI with a Z-score of price, this indicator estimates the relative strength of the price’s distance from its mean. Positive Z-score trends may signal a potential for higher-than-average prices in the near future (scaled by the standard deviation), while negative trends suggest the opposite. Essentially, when the Z-Score RSI indicates a trend, it reflects that the Z-score (the distance between the average and current price) is likely to continue moving in the trend’s direction. Generally, this signals a potential price movement, though it’s important to note that this could also occur if there’s a shift in the mean or standard deviation, rather than a meaningful change in price itself.
While the Z-Score RSI could be an insightful addition to a comprehensive trading system, it should be interpreted carefully. Mean shifts may validate the indicator’s predictions without necessarily indicating any notable price change, meaning it’s best used in tandem with other indicators or strategies.
Recommendations
Before putting this indicator to use, conduct thorough backtesting and avoid overfitting. The added parameters allow fine-tuning to fit various assets, but be careful not to optimize purely for the highest historical returns. Doing so may create an overly tailored strategy that performs well in backtests but fails in live markets. Keep it balanced and look for robust performance across multiple scenarios, as overfitting is likely to lead to disappointing real-world results.
XAUUSD 10-Minute StrategyThis XAUUSD 10-Minute Strategy is designed for trading Gold vs. USD on a 10-minute timeframe. By combining multiple technical indicators (MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands, and ATR), the strategy effectively captures both trend-following and reversal opportunities, with adaptive risk management for varying market volatility. This approach balances high-probability entries with robust volatility management, making it suitable for traders seeking to optimise entries during significant price movements and reversals.
Key Components and Logic:
MACD (12, 26, 9):
Generates buy signals on MACD Line crossovers above the Signal Line and sell signals on crossovers below the Signal Line, helping to capture momentum shifts.
RSI (14):
Utilizes oversold (below 35) and overbought (above 65) levels as a secondary filter to validate entries and avoid overextended price zones.
Bollinger Bands (20, 2):
Uses upper and lower Bollinger Bands to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions, aiming to enter long trades near the lower band and short trades near the upper band.
ATR-Based Stop Loss and Take Profit:
Stop Loss and Take Profit levels are dynamically set as multiples of ATR (3x for stop loss, 5x for take profit), ensuring flexibility with market volatility to optimise exit points.
Entry & Exit Conditions:
Buy Entry: T riggered when any of the following conditions are met:
MACD Line crosses above the Signal Line
RSI is oversold
Price drops below the lower Bollinger Band
Sell Entry: Triggered when any of the following conditions are met:
MACD Line crosses below the Signal Line
RSI is overbought
Price moves above the upper Bollinger Band
Exit Strategy: Trades are closed based on opposing entry signals, with adaptive spread adjustments for realistic exit points.
Backtesting Configuration & Results:

COT Trendfilter + SignalsCOT Trendfilter + Signals Indicator
Data Processing and Usage: The COT indicator processes Commitments of Traders (COT) data provided by the CFTC. Users can select from various participant groups, including Commercials, Large Speculators, and Small Speculators. However, it is important to note that the signal logic of the indicator is exclusively applicable to the net positions of Commercials. This is because Commercials tend to trade contrarily, meaning their trading decisions often run against the prevailing market trend.
Functionality of the Indicators
1. Cycle COT
The cCOT is an enhanced version of the classic RSI. It incorporates additional smoothing based on market vibrations, along with adaptive upper and lower bands based on cyclical memory. The cCOT uses the current dominant cycle length as input and highlights trading signals when the signal line crosses above or below the adaptive bands. Compared to the standard RSI, the cCOT responds more quickly to market movements.
For detailed information on the cCOT, please refer to Chapter 4 "Fine tuning technical indicators" in the book "Decoding the Hidden Market Rhythm, Part 1" by Lars von Thienen.
2. Adaptive Ultra-Smooth Momentum Indicator
The Adaptive Ultra-Smooth Momentum Indicator (CSI) provides an optimized momentum oscillator based on the current dominant cycle. It addresses three common issues with standard indicators: excessive false signals, signal delay, and the need for length adjustments. The CSI offers adaptive smoothing, zero delay, and accurate detection of turning points.
For further information about the CSI, please refer to Chapter 10 "Cycle Swing Indicator: Trading the swing of the dominant cycle" in the book "Decoding the Hidden Market Rhythm, Part 1" by Lars von Thienen.
Signals and Validation
The indicator generates various trading signals:
cCOT:
A buy signal is indicated by an airplane emoji (🛫), while a sell signal is marked by another airplane emoji (🛬).
COT Momentum:
A buy signal is shown by the symbol “∿” in green, while a sell signal is represented by the same symbol in red.
Standard COT Index (Willco):
A buy signal is depicted by a “B” (in green), while a sell signal is shown by an “S” (in red).
Additionally, the validity of the signals is checked. If a previous signal becomes invalid in the following week, it is marked with a gray “x,” indicating that these signals may not be reliable. Users can also switch between net positions, long, and short to analyze the most relevant data for them.
Background Color
The color in the channel can indicate the strength of the Commercials' long-term trend. A channel background color signals an active long-, short-term trend, while no color suggests that there is no clear long-term trend present.
Strange behavior
When only a sharp spike is displayed and the rest is flat, the length settings of the Cycle Length Index should be increased. This can occur when the length is too short, resulting in an unusual spike to properly generate the channel.

SuperATR 7-Step Profit - Strategy [presentTrading] Long time no see!
█ Introduction and How It Is Different
The SuperATR 7-Step Profit Strategy is a multi-layered trading approach that integrates adaptive Average True Range (ATR) calculations with momentum-based trend detection. What sets this strategy apart is its sophisticated 7-step take-profit mechanism, which combines four ATR-based exit levels and three fixed percentage levels. This hybrid approach allows traders to dynamically adjust to market volatility while systematically capturing profits in both long and short market positions.
Traditional trading strategies often rely on static indicators or single-layered exit strategies, which may not adapt well to changing market conditions. The SuperATR 7-Step Profit Strategy addresses this limitation by:
- Using Adaptive ATR: Enhances the standard ATR by making it responsive to current market momentum.
- Incorporating Momentum-Based Trend Detection: Identifies stronger trends with higher probability of continuation.
- Employing a Multi-Step Take-Profit System: Allows for gradual profit-taking at predetermined levels, optimizing returns while minimizing risk.

█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The strategy revolves around detecting strong market trends and capitalizing on them using an adaptive ATR and momentum indicators. Below is a detailed breakdown of each component of the strategy.
🔶 1. True Range Calculation with Enhanced Volatility Detection
The True Range (TR) measures market volatility by considering the most significant price movements. The enhanced TR is calculated as:
TR = Max
Where:
High and Low are the current bar's high and low prices.
Previous Close is the closing price of the previous bar.
Abs denotes the absolute value.
Max selects the maximum value among the three calculations.
🔶 2. Momentum Factor Calculation
To make the ATR adaptive, the strategy incorporates a Momentum Factor (MF), which adjusts the ATR based on recent price movements.
Momentum = Close - Close
Stdev_Close = Standard Deviation of Close over n periods
Normalized_Momentum = Momentum / Stdev_Close (if Stdev_Close ≠ 0)
Momentum_Factor = Abs(Normalized_Momentum)
Where:
Close is the current closing price.
n is the momentum_period, a user-defined input (default is 7).
Standard Deviation measures the dispersion of closing prices over n periods.
Abs ensures the momentum factor is always positive.
🔶 3. Adaptive ATR Calculation
The Adaptive ATR (AATR) adjusts the traditional ATR based on the Momentum Factor, making it more responsive during volatile periods and smoother during consolidation.
Short_ATR = SMA(True Range, short_period)
Long_ATR = SMA(True Range, long_period)
Adaptive_ATR = /
Where:
SMA is the Simple Moving Average.
short_period and long_period are user-defined inputs (defaults are 3 and 7, respectively).
🔶 4. Trend Strength Calculation
The strategy quantifies the strength of the trend to filter out weak signals.
Price_Change = Close - Close
ATR_Multiple = Price_Change / Adaptive_ATR (if Adaptive_ATR ≠ 0)
Trend_Strength = SMA(ATR_Multiple, n)
🔶 5. Trend Signal Determination
If (Short_MA > Long_MA) AND (Trend_Strength > Trend_Strength_Threshold):
Trend_Signal = 1 (Strong Uptrend)
Elif (Short_MA < Long_MA) AND (Trend_Strength < -Trend_Strength_Threshold):
Trend_Signal = -1 (Strong Downtrend)
Else:
Trend_Signal = 0 (No Clear Trend)
🔶 6. Trend Confirmation with Price Action
Adaptive_ATR_SMA = SMA(Adaptive_ATR, atr_sma_period)
If (Trend_Signal == 1) AND (Close > Short_MA) AND (Adaptive_ATR > Adaptive_ATR_SMA):
Trend_Confirmed = True
Elif (Trend_Signal == -1) AND (Close < Short_MA) AND (Adaptive_ATR > Adaptive_ATR_SMA):
Trend_Confirmed = True
Else:
Trend_Confirmed = False

EMD Oscillator (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) Oscillator is an advanced indicator designed to analyze market trends and cycles with high precision. It breaks down complex price data into simpler parts called Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs), allowing traders to see underlying patterns and trends that aren’t visible with traditional indicators. The result is a dynamic oscillator that provides insights into overbought and oversold conditions, as well as trend direction and strength. This indicator is suitable for all types of traders, from beginners to advanced, looking to gain deeper insights into market behavior.
█ How It Works
The core of this indicator is the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) process, a method typically used in signal processing and advanced scientific fields. It works by breaking down price data into various “layers,” each representing different frequencies in the market’s movement. Imagine peeling layers off an onion: each layer (or IMF) reveals a different aspect of the price action.
⚪ Data Decomposition (Sifting): The indicator “sifts” through historical price data to detect natural oscillations within it. Each oscillation (or IMF) highlights a unique rhythm in price behavior, from rapid fluctuations to broader, slower trends.
⚪ Adaptive Signal Reconstruction: The EMD Oscillator allows traders to select specific IMFs for a custom signal reconstruction. This reconstructed signal provides a composite view of market behavior, showing both short-term cycles and long-term trends based on which IMFs are included.
⚪ Normalization: To make the oscillator easy to interpret, the reconstructed signal is scaled between -1 and 1. This normalization lets traders quickly spot overbought and oversold conditions, as well as trend direction, without worrying about the raw magnitude of price changes.
The indicator adapts to changing market conditions, making it effective for identifying real-time market cycles and potential turning points.
█ Key Calculations: The Math Behind the EMD Oscillator
The EMD Oscillator’s advanced nature lies in its high-level mathematical operations:
⚪ Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs)
IMFs are extracted from the data and act as the building blocks of this indicator. Each IMF is a unique oscillation within the price data, similar to how a band might be divided into treble, mid, and bass frequencies. In the EMD Oscillator:
Higher-Frequency IMFs: Represent short-term market “noise” and quick fluctuations.
Lower-Frequency IMFs: Capture broader market trends, showing more stable and long-term patterns.
⚪ Sifting Process: The Heart of EMD
The sifting process isolates each IMF by repeatedly separating and refining the data. Think of this as filtering water through finer and finer mesh sieves until only the clearest parts remain. Mathematically, it involves:
Extrema Detection: Finding all peaks and troughs (local maxima and minima) in the data.
Envelope Calculation: Smoothing these peaks and troughs into upper and lower envelopes using cubic spline interpolation (a method for creating smooth curves between data points).
Mean Removal: Calculating the average between these envelopes and subtracting it from the data to isolate one IMF. This process repeats until the IMF criteria are met, resulting in a clean oscillation without trend influences.
⚪ Spline Interpolation
The cubic spline interpolation is an advanced mathematical technique that allows smooth curves between points, which is essential for creating the upper and lower envelopes around each IMF. This interpolation solves a tridiagonal matrix (a specialized mathematical problem) to ensure that the envelopes align smoothly with the data’s natural oscillations.
To give a relatable example: imagine drawing a smooth line that passes through each peak and trough of a mountain range on a map. Spline interpolation ensures that line is as smooth and close to reality as possible. Achieving this in Pine Script is technically demanding and demonstrates a high level of mathematical coding.
⚪ Amplitude Normalization
To make the oscillator more readable, the final signal is scaled by its maximum amplitude. This amplitude normalization brings the oscillator into a range of -1 to 1, creating consistent signals regardless of price level or volatility.
█ Comparison with Other Signal Processing Methods
Unlike standard technical indicators that often rely on fixed parameters or pre-defined mathematical functions, the EMD adapts to the data itself, capturing natural cycles and irregularities in real-time. For example, if the market becomes more volatile, EMD adjusts automatically to reflect this without requiring parameter changes from the trader. In this way, it behaves more like a “smart” indicator, intuitively adapting to the market, unlike most traditional methods. EMD’s adaptive approach is akin to AI’s ability to learn from data, making it both resilient and robust in non-linear markets. This makes it a great alternative to methods that struggle in volatile environments, such as fixed-parameter oscillators or moving averages.
█ How to Use
Identify Market Cycles and Trends: Use the EMD Oscillator to spot market cycles that represent phases of buying or selling pressure. The smoothed version of the oscillator can help highlight broader trends, while the main oscillator reveals immediate cycles.
Spot Overbought and Oversold Levels: When the oscillator approaches +1 or -1, it may indicate that the market is overbought or oversold, signaling potential entry or exit points.
Confirm Divergences: If the price movement diverges from the oscillator's direction, it may indicate a potential reversal. For example, if prices make higher highs while the oscillator makes lower highs, it could be a sign of weakening trend strength.
█ Settings
Window Length (N): Defines the number of historical bars used for EMD analysis. A larger window captures more data but may slow down performance.
Number of IMFs (M): Sets how many IMFs to extract. Higher values allow for a more detailed decomposition, isolating smaller cycles within the data.
Amplitude Window (L): Controls the length of the window used for amplitude calculation, affecting the smoothness of the normalized oscillator.
Extraction Range (IMF Start and End): Allows you to select which IMFs to include in the reconstructed signal. Starting with lower IMFs captures faster cycles, while ending with higher IMFs includes slower, trend-based components.
Sifting Stopping Criterion (S-number): Sets how precisely each IMF should be refined. Higher values yield more accurate IMFs but take longer to compute.
Max Sifting Iterations (num_siftings): Limits the number of sifting iterations for each IMF extraction, balancing between performance and accuracy.
Source: The price data used for the analysis, such as close or open prices. This determines which price movements are decomposed by the indicator.

Volume-Adjusted Schaff Trend Cycle (VASTC)Volume-Adjusted Schaff Trend Cycle (VASTC)
The VASTC is a fairly fast-moving oscillator designed to identify trends early and signal when trends may be nearing their end. While it can be used for both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies , it shines in trend-following setups. It’s particularly useful for catching the start of a trend and giving early warnings that a trend might end soon, making it a valuable addition to a multi-indicator system.
How It Works:
The VASTC adapts the traditional Schaff Trend Cycle by adjusting the MACD component with volume data. This volume-adjusted MACD is run through two stochastic processes , applying exponential smoothing to enhance responsiveness. Volume sensitivity allows the VASTC to adapt dynamically to periods of high or low trading activity, providing more reliable trend signals.
Recommended Use:
Use VASTC in confluence with other indicators to confirm trend entries and exits. It’s best for identifying early trend setups rather than sustaining prolonged trend trades. When used alongside other indicators, especially those with a longer-term outlook or momentum based trend indicators, you’ll gain a clearer signal for potential exits or entries. Always backtest the VASTC on your chosen assets to determine the most effective input parameters, as the defaults may not suit all markets or assets. Different assets behave differently, and adjustments in parameters can improve its ability to analyze the assets you're looking at.
Parameters:
Length : Sets the primary smoothing length.
Fast/Slow Length : Adjust the speed of the volume-adjusted MACD component.
Factor : Controls the final smoothing applied to the STC.
Overbought/Oversold Levels : Defines overbought/oversold levels.
Experiment with these settings to customize the VASTC to your trading strategy and asset.
Disclaimer : This indicator is a tool to complement your trading analysis and should not be used in isolation. Always backtest and use other confluence signals for best results. The assets I looked at when making this indicator are almost certainly different than what you're looking at.
