Wyckoff Method IndicatorThe Wyckoff Method Market Cycle Indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify the current market phase based on the principles of the Wyckoff Method. This indicator analyzes price action and volume patterns to determine whether the market is in an accumulation, markup, distribution, or markdown phase.
The Wyckoff Method, developed by Richard D. Wyckoff, is a time-tested approach to understanding market dynamics and identifying potential trading opportunities. By studying the interaction between price and volume, the Wyckoff Method aims to provide insight into the actions of market participants and the potential direction of the market.
This indicator automatically detects the key market phases as defined by the Wyckoff Method:
Accumulation: This phase occurs when large institutional investors are quietly accumulating positions, often leading to a period of consolidation with low volatility and decreasing volume.
Markup: Following the accumulation phase, the markup phase is characterized by a breakout above the accumulation range, accompanied by increasing volume. This indicates a potential bullish trend.
Distribution: After a significant price advance, the distribution phase emerges. It is marked by high volatility and increasing volume as large investors begin to distribute their holdings to the public.
Markdown: The markdown phase follows the distribution phase and is characterized by a breakdown below the distribution range, accompanied by increasing volume. This suggests a potential bearish trend.
The indicator plots the detected market phases on the chart using the following signals:
Green triangle pointing upwards: Accumulation phase
Blue triangle pointing downwards: Markup phase
Red triangle pointing downwards: Distribution phase
Orange triangle pointing upwards: Markdown phase
By utilizing this indicator, traders can gain valuable insights into the underlying market structure and make more informed trading decisions. However, it is important to note that the Wyckoff Method Market Cycle Indicator should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and risk management strategies.
The indicator provides two input parameters:
Lookback Period: The number of bars used to calculate the volatility and determine the market phases. The default value is 50.
Volume Condition Multiple: The multiple used to compare the current volume with the volume of the lookback period. The default value is 2.
Traders can adjust these parameters to suit their specific trading style and the characteristics of the asset being analyzed.
Please note that this indicator is intended for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice. Always conduct your own analysis and exercise proper risk management when trading.
Happy trading!
Cycles
Session TimesDescription:
This indicator simply when enabled will draw dashed lines at each of the session openings. This is based on UTC+1 Time. There will be lines at 00:00 & 08:00 (Asian Session), lines at 08:00 & 13:00 (London Session) and finally lines at 13:00 & 00:00 (New York Session).
Potential Use:
There are many ways you could use this indicator to benefit your trading, but the best way I find is that it makes it clear where the previous highs and lows are of a session, which are potential areas you could trade off. Obviously, there are many other ways you can use this to help you.
How The Script Works:
The way the script works isn't too complicated as it is only a short script. Simply it firstly calculates what are the weekdays (Whenever it isn't Saturday or Sunday). Then from there simply finds the times which I mentioned above, and adds a vertical dashed line there.
Future Updates:
In the future I will mainly be looking to make the indicator more customisable. Firstly, I will look to make it so that the user can adjust the times that the lines are drawn at so it still works wherever you are in the world. I would also like to make it so the user can choose the colour of the lines. If you have any other additions you would like added to this, then feel free to message me.

When in strong trends, you can use the average table to determine when to look to get into a position. This example we are in a strong downtrend, we then see the histogram growing above the average in these conditions which is where we should look to get into a shorting position.
Strategic Applications
The AMACD serves not just as an indicator but as a comprehensive analytical tool for spotting market trends, momentum shifts, and potential reversal points. It's particularly useful for traders to:
Spot Momentum Changes Utilise dynamic coloring and streak tracking to alert shifts in momentum, helping anticipate market movements.
Identify Market Extremes Use high and low markers to spot potential market turning points, aiding in risk management and decision-making.
Alert Conditions
Above Average Movement Alerts: Triggered when the duration of the MACD histogram's growth or decline is unusually long, these alerts signal sustained momentum:
Above Zero: Alerts for both growing and declining movements above zero, indicating either continued bullish trends or potential bearish reversals.
Below Zero: Alerts for growth and decline below zero, pointing to potential bullish reversals or confirmed bearish trends.
High/Low Break Alerts: Activated when the histogram reaches new highs or falls to new lows beyond the set thresholds, these alerts are crucial for identifying shifts in market dynamics:
Break Above Last High: Indicates a potential upward trend as the histogram surpasses recent highs.
Break Below Last Low: Warns of a possible downward trend as the histogram drops below recent lows.
These alert conditions enable traders to automate part of their market monitoring or potential to automate the signals to take action elsewhere.
RSI w/Hann WindowingThis RSI by John Ehlers of "Yet Another" Improved RSI. Taking advantage of the Hann windowing. As seen on PRC and published by John Ehlers, it has a zero mean and appears smoother than the classic RSI. In his own words " I prefer oscillator-type indicators to have a zero mean. We can achieve this simply by multiplying the classic RSI by 2 so it swings from 0 to 2, and then subtract 1 from the product so the indicator swings from -1 to +1." Ehlers goes on to say " Bear in mind 14 may not be the best length to analysis. So, the best length to use for the RSIH indicator is on the order of the dominant cycle period of the data."
This indicator works well with both bullish and bearish divergences. It also works well with oversold and overbought indications. Shown by the Red zone on top (Overbought) and the green zone on the bottom(oversold). Each which have an adjustable buffer zone. You may need to adjust the length of the RSIH to suit your asset. There are also multiply signal line's to choose from. Also take note of when the RSIH crosses up or down on the signal line.
None of this is financial advice.
Global Net Liquidity (TG fork)Worldwide net liquidity, with trend coloring.
Global Net Liquidity attempts to represent worldwide net liquidity, and is defined as: Fed + Japan + China + UK + ECB - RRP - TGA , Where the first five components are central bank assets.
On TradingView, the indicator can be reproduced with the following equations: Global Net Liquidity = FRED:WALCL + FRED:JPNASSETS * FX_IDC:JPYUSD + CNCBBS * FX_IDC:CNYUSD + GBCBBS * FX:GBPUSD + ECBASSETSW * FX:EURUSD + RRPONTSYD + WTREGEN
However, this indicator adds a moving average cloud, and margin coloring, which eases historical trend assessment at a glance.
This indicator can be seen as an alternative representation of the accumulation/distribution indicator (and hence the same terms can be used in this description).
The Moving Average Cloud is simply the filling between the moving average (by default an EMA) and the current value. This feature was inspired by D7R ACC/DIST closed-source indicator, kudos to D7R for making such neat visual indicators.
Usage instructions:
Blue is more likely a phase of accumulation because the current value is above its historical price as defined by the moving average,
red is when this is more likely a phase of distribution.
Yellow is when the difference is below the margin, so we consider it is insignificant and that the trend is undecided. This can be disabled by setting the margin to 0.
While the color indicates if it's more likely an accumulation (blue) or distribution (red) phase or undecided (yellow), the cloud's vertical size allows to assess the strength of this tendency and the horizontal size the momentum, so that the bigger the cloud, the stronger the accumulation (if cloud is blue) or distribution (if cloud is red).
Why is that so? This is because the cloud represents the difference between the current tendency and the moving averaged past one, so a bigger cloud represents a bigger departure from recently observed tendencies. In practice, when there is accumulation, a pump in price can be expected soon, or if it already happened then it means it is indeed supported by volume, whereas if distribution, either a dump is to be expected soon, or if it already happened it means it's supported by volume.
Or maybe not necessarily a dump, but if there is a move upward in price, but the indicator indicates a strong distribution, then it means that the price movement is not supported and may not be sustainable (reversal may happen at anytime), whereas if price is going upward AND there is an accumulation (blue coloring) then it is more sustainable. This can be used to adapt strategies accordingly (risk on/risk off depending on whether there is concordance of both price and accumulation/distribution).
This indicator also includes sentiment signals that can be used to trigger alarms.
This indicator is a remix of Dharmatech's, who authored the first this Global Net Liquidity equation, kudos to them! Please show them some love if you like this indicator!
BTC Backwardation SearcherThis Pine Script code is a custom indicator named "BTC Backwardation Searcher" designed for the TradingView platform. The indicator aims to identify and visualize the price difference between two Bitcoin futures contracts: CME:BTC1! and CME:BTC2!.
Here's a breakdown of the code:
1. The script fetches the daily close prices of CME:BTC1! and CME:BTC2! using the security() function.
2. It calculates the percentage price difference between the two contracts using the formula: (btc1Price - btc2Price) / btc2Price * 100.
3. The script also calculates the price difference for the previous two days (2 days ago and 3 days ago) using the same formula.
4. Two conditions are defined:
(1) dailyGreenCondition: If the price difference is greater than or equal to 0.3% for three
consecutive days, including the current day and the previous two days.
(2) dailyRedCondition(commented): If the price difference is less than or equal to -1% for three consecutive days, including the current day and the previous two days.
(I commented it out because I don't think it's useful.)
5. The plotshape() function is used to display green triangles on the chart when the dailyGreenCondition is met, and red triangles when the dailyRedCondition is met. These triangles are displayed on the daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes.
The purpose of this indicator is to help traders identify potential trading opportunities based on the price difference between the two Bitcoin futures contracts. The green triangles suggest a bullish scenario where CME:BTC1! is significantly higher than CME:BTC2!, while the red triangles indicate a bearish scenario where CME:BTC2! is significantly lower than CME:BTC1!.
However, it's important to note that this indicator should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and fundamental analysis. Traders should also consider their risk tolerance, investment goals, and market conditions before making any trading decisions based on this indicator.
Custom Candle Body Color and EMA Crossover IndicatorWe determine if the price is below EMA 9 by comparing the close price with EMA 9.
We determine if the current candle body is huge compared to the previous candle's body.
We plot EMA 9 in black color and EMA 200 in green color.
We plot blue triangles below the bars for EMA crossover above and red triangles above the bars for EMA crossover below.
We set the color of the candle body to red if the price is below EMA 9 and to green if the price is above EMA 9, only when the current candle body is huge compared to the previous candle's body.
Phang Phập TrungTuTi 14EMAs
EMAs are typically used to give a view of bullish / bearish momentum. When the shorter EMA (calculated off more recent price action) crosses, or is above, the slower moving EMA (calculated off a longer period of price action), it suggests that the market is in an uptrend. This can be an indication to either go long on said asset, or that it is more preferable to take long setups over short setups. Invalidation on long setups is usually found via price action (e.g. previous lows) or simply waiting for an EMA cross in the opposite direction (i.e. shorter EMA crosses under longer term EMA).
This is not a perfect system for trade entry or exit, but it does give a good indication of market trends. The settings for the EMAs can be changed based on user inputs, and by default the candles are coloured based on the crosses to make it more visual
RSI
Stochastic RSI is a separate indicator that has been added to this script. RSI measures Relative Strength (RSI = Relative Strength Index). When RSI is <20 it is considered oversold, and when >80 it is overbought. These conditions suggests that momentum is very strong in the direction of the trend
Volume NThe Volume Indicator provides a visual representation of trading volume, expressed in U.S. dollars, directly on your chart. It multiplies each candle's closing price by its volume to compute the volume in dollar terms, offering a clearer perspective on market activity relative to price movements.
Features:
Volume Calculation: The indicator calculates the volume in dollar terms by multiplying the closing price by the trading volume of each bar.
Color Coding: Bars are colored to highlight significant trading activity. Standard bars are displayed in blue, whereas bars representing the highest trading volume over the latest 10-bar period are colored red.
Dynamic Labels: Red bars, indicating peak volume within the specified period, feature dynamically positioned labels that display the dollar amount, formatted to three significant figures. Labels are appended with "M" for millions or "B" for billions as appropriate, followed by a dollar sign to denote currency.
Automatic Label Adjustment: To avoid label overlap and maintain chart clarity, labels adjust their vertical positioning automatically based on proximity to other labels.
Usage:
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who wish to assess the strength of price movements in conjunction with volume. By quantifying volume in dollar terms, it provides a more standardized measure of trading intensity, which can be beneficial for making informed trading decisions in both high and low volatility environments.
Bull Bear Trend IndicatorIntroduction: Origin of the Swing Point Indicator
In the quest for a reliable indicator that accurately predicts trend directions and identifies valid highs and lows, the genesis of the Swing Point Indicator emerged. Faced with the challenge of finding a tool that provided comprehensive market analysis and actionable insights, the need for a novel solution became evident. Combining insights gleaned from market analysis and innovative algorithmic approaches, the Swing Point Indicator was born.
Enhanced Feature: Highs and Lows Labeling in Trend Direction
In addition to its core functionalities, the Swing Point Indicator incorporates an advanced feature that enhances the visualization of trend direction. This feature provides further clarity by selectively labeling highs and lows based on the prevailing trend, reinforcing the identification of higher highs and lower lows in uptrends and downtrends, respectively. Overlapping labels on highs and lows signify a potential trend change, providing traders with valuable insight into market reversals.
Detailed Description:
1. Uptrend Labeling:
- Higher Highs (Green Label with Price): In an uptrend, where higher highs are observed, the indicator labels these points with vibrant green color and includes the corresponding price value. This visually highlights the significance of higher highs as pivotal points in the upward trajectory of prices.
- Higher Lows (Red Marker without Text or Diamond): To complement the identification of higher highs, higher lows are marked with a distinct red marker or diamond, devoid of any accompanying text. While these points are crucial in delineating the ascending trend, their emphasis lies in their role as support levels, providing a foundation for upward price movements.
2. Downtrend Labeling:
- Lower Lows (Red Label with Price): Conversely, in a downtrend characterized by lower lows, the indicator labels these points with conspicuous red color, accompanied by the corresponding price value. Lower lows signify critical levels of downward price momentum, acting as indicators of potential bearish continuation.
- Lower Highs (Green Marker without Text or Diamond): Lower highs, indicative of downward retracements in a downtrend, are marked by distinctive green markers or diamonds without accompanying text. While these points denote temporary pauses or pullbacks in the bearish trend, their emphasis lies in their role as resistance levels, impeding upward price movements.
Functionality and Utility:
- Customizable Lookback Candle Count: Traders have the option to adjust the lookback candle count, which is set by default at 108 candles in the settings. This flexibility allows traders to tailor the indicator to their specific trading preferences and timeframes.
- Equal Highs or Lows Option: When enabled, the Swing Point Indicator can identify equal highs or equal lows, providing traders with additional insight into market dynamics.
- Formation Confirmation: A new higher high along with its higher low or a new lower low along with its lower high is confirmed after two candles have closed following the swing point candle. This ensures the reliability of the identified trend direction.
Conclusion:
The incorporation of selective labeling for highs and lows based on trend direction, alongside the introduction of customizable settings and formation confirmation criteria, enhances the effectiveness of the Swing Point Indicator. This feature-rich tool empowers traders with a nuanced understanding of market dynamics, highlighting critical price levels and trend reversals. By offering enhanced visualization, customizable options, and confirmation criteria, the Swing Point Indicator equips traders with the confidence and precision needed to navigate the markets successfully, contributing to more informed and profitable trading strategies.

Heat Map SeasonsHeat Map Seasons indicator
Indicator offers traders a unique perspective on market dynamics by visualizing seasonal trends and deviations from typical price behavior. By blending regression analysis with a color-coded heat map, this indicator highlights periods of heightened volatility and helps identify potential shifts in market sentiment.
Summer:
In the context of the indicator, "summer" represents a period of heightened volatility and upward price momentum in the market. This is analogous to the warmer months of the year when activities are typically more vibrant and energetic. During the "summer" phase indicated by the indicator, traders may observe strong bullish trends, increased trading volumes, and larger price movements. It suggests a favorable environment for bullish strategies, such as trend following or momentum trading. However, traders should exercise caution as heightened volatility can also lead to increased risk and potential drawdowns.
Winter:
Conversely, "winter" signifies a period of decreased volatility and potentially sideways or bearish price action in the market. Similar to the colder months of the year when activities tend to slow down, the "winter" phase in the indicator suggests a quieter market environment with subdued price movements and lower trading volumes. During this phase, traders may encounter choppy price action, consolidation patterns, or even downtrends. It indicates a challenging environment for trend-following strategies and may require a more cautious approach, such as range-bound or mean-reversion trading strategies.
In summary, the "summer" and "winter" phases in the "Heat Map Seasons" indicator provide traders with valuable insights into the prevailing market sentiment and can help inform their trading decisions based on the observed levels of volatility and price momentum.
How to Use:
Watch for price bars that deviate significantly from the regression line , as these may signal potential trading opportunities.
Use the seasonal gauge to gauge the current market sentiment and adjust trading strategies accordingly.
Experiment with different settings for Length and Heat Sensitivity to customize the indicator to your trading style and preferences.
The "Heat Map Seasons" indicator can potentially identify overheated market tops and bottoms on a weekly timeframe by detecting significant deviations from the regression line and observing extreme color gradients in the heat map. Here's how it can be used for this purpose:
Observing Extreme Color Gradients:
When the market is overheated and reaches a potential top, you may observe extremely warm colors (e.g., deep red) in the heat map section of the indicator.
Traders can interpret this as a warning sign of a potential market top, indicating that bullish momentum may be reaching unsustainable levels.
Conversely, when prices deviate too far below the regression line, it may indicate oversold conditions and a potential bottom.
Potential Tops and Bottoms:
User Inputs:
Length: Determines the length of the regression analysis period.
Heat Sensitivity: Controls the sensitivity of the heat map to deviations from the regression line.
Show Regression Line: Option to display or hide the regression line on the chart
Note: This indicator is best used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and should not be relied upon as the sole basis for trading decisions.
Relative Volume (RV)Relative Volume take the volume at a given time of day and compares it to the average volume at that time of day. You can either use the current volume or the cumulative volume in this analysis. You have the option to either see the average and the current volume or a comparative view where you see the percent difference between now and the average.
My implementation of relative volume uses a key-value pair to simplify the process of getting the average volume for the time of day. This reduces the lines of code needed and makes it easier to understand. I have added the normal features you would find in a relative volume indicator with the addition of an average above/below average section for comparing the significance of above/below average moves are. I hope this script is not only useful but educational.

Hurst Future Lines of Demarcation StrategyJ. M. Hurst introduced a concept in technical analysis known as the Future Line of Demarcation (FLD), which serves as a forward-looking tool by incorporating a simple yet profound line into future projections on a financial chart. Specifically, the FLD is constructed by offsetting the price half a cycle ahead into the future on the time axis, relative to the Hurst Cycle of interest. For instance, in the context of a 40 Day Cycle, the FLD would be represented by shifting the current price data 20 days forward on the chart, offering an idea of future price movement anticipations.
The utility of FLDs extends into three critical areas of insight, which form the backbone of the FLD Trading Strategy:
A price crossing the FLD signifies the confirmation of either a peak or trough formation, indicating pivotal moments in price action.
Such crossings also help determine precise price targets for the upcoming peak or trough, aligned with the cycle of examination.
Additionally, the occurrence of a peak in the FLD itself signals a probable zone where the price might experience a trough, helping to anticipate of future price movements.
These insights by Hurst in his "Cycles Trading Course" during the 1970s, are instrumental for traders aiming to determine entry and exit points, and to forecast potential price movements within the market.
To use the FLD Trading Strategy, for example when focusing on the 40 Day Cycle, a trader should primarily concentrate on the interplay between three Hurst Cycles:
The 20 Day FLD (Signal) - Half the length of the Trade Cycle
The 40 Day FLD (Trade) - The Cycle you want to trade
The 80 Day FLD (Trend) - Twice the length of the Trade Cycle
Traders can gauge trend or consolidation by watching for two critical patterns:
Cascading patterns, characterized by several FLDs running parallel with a consistent separation, typically emerge during pronounced market trends, indicating strong directional momentum.
Consolidation patterns, on the other hand, occur when multiple FLDs intersect and navigate within the same price bandwidth, often reversing direction to traverse this range multiple times. This tangled scenario results in the formation of Pause Zones, areas where price momentum is likely to temporarily stall or where the emergence of a significant trend might be delayed.
This simple FLD indicator provides 3 FLDs with optional source input and smoothing, A-through-H FLD interaction background, adjustable “Close the Trade” triggers, and a simple strategy for backtesting it all.
The A-through-H FLD interactions are a framework designed to classify the different types of price movements as they intersect with or diverge from the Future Line of Demarcation (FLD). Each interaction (designated A through H by color) represents a specific phase or characteristic within the cycle, and understanding these can help traders anticipate future price movements and make informed decisions.
The adjustable “Close the Trade” triggers are for setting the crossover/under that determines the trade exits. The options include: Price, Signal FLD, Trade FLD, or Trend FLD. For example, a trader may want to exit trades only when price finally crosses the Trade FLD line.

👏 @parisboy
EMA 9/13/18/25 + Bollinger BandThe indicator combines two components: Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and Bollinger Bands.
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): The indicator calculates four EMAs with different periods: 9, 13, 18, and 25. An Exponential Moving Average is a type of moving average that places a greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. As the name suggests, it's an average of the asset's price over a certain period, with recent prices given more weight in the calculation, making it more responsive to recent price changes.
Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands consist of a simple moving average (the basis) and two standard deviations plotted away from it. The standard deviations are multiplied by a factor (usually 2) to determine the distance from the basis. These bands dynamically adjust themselves based on recent price movements. The upper band represents the highest price level reached in the given period, while the lower band represents the lowest price level.
Combining these components provides traders with insights into both trend direction and volatility. The EMAs help identify trends by smoothing out price data, while the Bollinger Bands offer insights into volatility and potential price reversal points. Traders often use the crossovers of EMAs and interactions with Bollinger Bands to make trading decisions. For example, when the price touches the upper Bollinger Band, it may indicate overbought conditions, while touching the lower band may suggest oversold conditions. Additionally, crossovers of EMAs (such as the shorter-term EMA crossing above or below the longer-term EMA) may signal changes in trend direction.
Sequencer [LuxAlgo]The Sequencer indicator is a tool that is able to highlight sequences of prices based on their relative position to past prices, which allows a high degree of customization from the user.
Two phases are included in this script, a "Preparation" phase and a "Lead-Up" phase, each with a customizable amount of steps, as well as other characteristics.
Users can also highlight the last step leading to each phase completion with a level, this level can eventually be used as a key price point.
🔶 USAGE
The script highlights two phases, each being based on a sequence of events requiring prices to be higher/lower than prices various bars ago.
The completion of the preparation phase will lead to the evaluation of the lead-up phase, however, it isn't uncommon to see a reversal occurring after the completion of a preparation phase. In the script, bullish preparations are highlighted in green, while bearish preparations are highlighted in red.
Completion of a "Lead-Up" phase is indicative of a potential reversal, with a bullish reversal for the completion of a bullish lead-up (in blue), and a bearish reversal for the completion of a bearish lead-up (in orange).
Using a higher length for the preparation/lead-up phases can allow the detection of longer-term reversals.
Users wishing to display levels based on specific phases completion can do so from the settings in the "Preparation/Lead-Up Completion Levels" settings group.
The "Show Last" settings determine the amount of respective levels to display on the chart.
🔶 PREPARATION PHASE
The "Preparation" phase precedes the "Lead-Up" phase. The completion of this phase requires N successive prices to be lower than the closing price P bars ago for a bullish phase, and for prices to be higher than the closing price P bars ago for a bearish phase, where N is the user set "Preparation Phase Length" and P the user set "Comparison Period".
🔹 Refined Preparations
Sequences of the preparation phase can either be "Standard" or "Refined". Unlike the standard preparation previously described a refined preparation requires the low prices from the user-specified steps in "Refined Preparation Steps" to be above the low price of the last step for a bullish preparation phase, and for the high prices specified in the refined preparation steps to be below the high price of the last step for a bearish preparation phase.
🔶 LEAD-UP PHASE
The "Lead-Up" phase is initiated by the completion of the "Preparation" phase.
Completion of this phase requires the price to be lower than the low price P bars ago N times for a bullish phase, and for prices to be higher than the high price P bars ago N times for a bearish phase, where N is the user set "Lead-Up Phase Length" and P the user set "Comparison Period".
Unlike with the "Preparation" phase these conditions don't need to be successive for them to be valid and can occur at any time.
🔹 Lead-Up Cancellation
Incomplete "Lead-Up" phases can be canceled and removed from the chart once a preparation of the opposite sentiment is completed, avoiding lead-ups to be evaluated after completion of complete preparations.
This can be disabled by toggling off "Apply Cancellation".
🔹 Lead-Up Suspension
Like with refined preparations, we can require specific steps from the lead-up phase to be higher/lower than the price on the last step. This can be particularly important since we do not require lead-up steps to be successive.
For a bullish lead-up, the low of the last step must be lower than the minimum closing prices of the user-specified steps for it to be valid, while for a bearish lead-up, the high of the last step must be higher than the maximum closing prices of the user-specified steps for it to be valid.
This effectively allows for eliminating lead-up phases getting completed on opposite trends.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Preparation Phase
Preparation Phase Length: Length of the "Preparation" phase.
Comparison Period: Offset used to compare current prices to past ones.
Preparation Type: Type of preparation to evaluate, options include "Standard" or "Refined"
Refined Preparations Steps: Steps to evaluate when preparation type is "Refined"
🔹 Lead-Up Phase
Lead-Up Phase Length: Length of the "Lead-Up" phase.
Comparison Period: Offset used to compare current prices to past ones.
Suspension: Applies suspension rule to evaluate lead-up completion.
Suspension Steps: Specifies the steps evaluated to determine if the lead-up referral is respected. Multiple steps are supported and should be comma-separated.
Apply Cancellation: Cancellation will remove any incomplete lead-up upon the completion of a new preparation phase of the opposite sentiment.
🔹 Levels
Bullish Preparations Levels: When enabled display price levels from completed bullish preparations.
Show Last: Number of most recent bullish preparations levels to display.

Buffett IndicatorThis is an open-source version of the Buffett indicator. The old version was code-protected and broken, so I created another version.
It's computed simply as the entire SPX 500 capitalization divided by the US GDP. Since TradingView does not have data for the SPX 500 capitalization, I used quarterly values of SPX devisors as a proxy.
I tried to create another version of the Buffett indicator for other countries/indexes, but I can't find the data. If you can help me find data for index divisors, I can add more choices to this indicator.
It's interesting to see how this indicator's behavior has changed in the last few years. Levels that looked crazy are not so crazy anymore.

Temporal Value Tracker: Inception-to-Present Inflation Lens!What we're looking at here is a chart that does more than just display the price of gold. It offers us a time-traveling perspective on value. The blue line, that's our nominal price—it's the straightforward market price of gold over time. But it's the red line that takes us on a deeper journey. This line adjusts the nominal price for inflation, showing us the real purchasing power of gold.
Now, when we talk about 'real value,' we're not just philosophizing. We're anchoring our prices to a point in time when the journey began—let's say when gold trading started on the markets, or any inception point we choose. By 'shadowing' certain years—say, from the 1970s when the gold standard was abandoned—we can adjust this chart to reflect what the inflation-adjusted price means since that key moment in history.
By doing so, we're effectively isolating our view to start from that pivotal year, giving us insight into how gold, or indeed any asset, has held up against the backdrop of economic changes, policy shifts, and the inevitable rise in the cost of living. If you're analyzing a stock index like the S&P 500, you might begin your inflation-adjusted view from the index's inception date, which allows you to measure the true growth of the market basket from the moment it started.
This adjustment isn't just academic. It influences how we perceive value and growth. Consider a period where the nominal price skyrockets. We might toast to our brilliance in investment! But if the inflation-adjusted line lags, what we're seeing is nominal growth without real gains. On the other hand, if our red line outpaces the blue even during stagnant market periods, we're witnessing real growth—our asset is outperforming the eroding effects of inflation.
Every asset class can be evaluated this way. Stocks, bonds, real estate—they all have their historical narratives, and inflation adjustment tells us if these stories are tales of genuine growth or illusions masked by inflation.
So, as informed traders and investors, we need to keep our eyes on this inflation-adjusted line. It's our measure against the silent thief that is inflation. It ensures we're not just keeping up with the Joneses of the market, but actually outpacing them, building real wealth over time
