Snipe 1-Minute IntradayPurpose
This script demonstrates a simple intraday approach using RSI, EMAs, VWAP, and an optional volume filter. It plots visual buy (bullish) and sell (bearish) signals on the chart under certain conditions. You can use it as a starting point to explore or develop your own intraday strategies.
Key Features
1. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
Plots the built-in VWAP for additional context on intraday price action.
2. EMA Crossover
Uses two EMAs (fast and slow). A bullish signal triggers when the fast EMA is above the slow EMA, and a bearish signal triggers when the fast EMA is below the slow EMA.
3. RSI Momentum Filter
An RSI reading above 50 indicates bullish momentum; below 50 indicates bearish momentum.
4. Volume Filter (Optional)
Compares the current bar’s volume against the average volume (over a user-defined period). When enabled, signals only appear if the current volume exceeds the average.
5. Time Window (Optional)
Allows you to define a specific time window (e.g., the first hour of trading) for valid signals. You can enable or disable this filter and set your preferred time zone.
How the Signals Are Generated
• Bullish Signal
o Occurs when:
1. Price is above VWAP.
2. Fast EMA is above Slow EMA.
3. RSI is above 50.
4. (Optional) Current volume exceeds the average volume if the volume filter is enabled.
5. (Optional) The chart’s timestamp is within the specified session if the time filter is enabled.
A green triangle is plotted below the bar, and an optional background highlight is shown.
• Bearish Signal
Occurs when the conditions are inverted (price below VWAP, fast EMA below slow EMA, RSI below 50, volume filter and time window—if enabled—are satisfied).
A red triangle is plotted above the bar, and an optional background highlight is shown.
How to Use
1. Load on a 1-Minute Chart (Recommended)
This script is intended for intraday timeframes (specifically 1-minute). Feel free to experiment with other timeframes.
2. Adjust Inputs
You can modify the RSI length, EMA lengths, and volume lookback to suit your preferences or trading style.

These patterns are based on specific relationships between consecutive candles, combined with a simple moving average (SMA) filter for added precision. By spotting these patterns, traders can potentially identify high-probability reversal points or trend continuations.
Core Logic
The indicator identifies two patterns:
Bullish Trident
A bullish Trident forms when:
Candle (two candles back) has its High-Low range entirely above Candle (the preceding candle).
Candle (the current candle) has its Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC) above the Low of Candle .
Candle closes higher than it opens and higher than Candle ’s close.
Candle closes below the SMA, indicating a potential upward breakout against the trend.
Bearish Trident
A bearish Trident forms when:
Candle has its High-Low range entirely below Candle .
Candle has its OHLC below the High of Candle .
Candle closes lower than it opens and lower than Candle ’s close.
Candle closes above the SMA, indicating a potential downward breakout against the trend.
Visual Representation
Bullish Tridents are marked with green "Up" labels below the candle.
Bearish Tridents are marked with red "Down" labels above the candle.
The SMA is plotted as a maroon line to serve as a filter for the Trident patterns.
Support Resistance Major/Minor [TradingFinder] Market Structure🔵 Introduction
Support and resistance levels are key concepts in technical analysis, serving as critical points where prices pause or reverse due to the interaction of supply and demand. These foundational elements in price action and classical technical analysis assist traders in understanding market behavior and making better trading decisions.
Support levels are zones where demand is strong enough to prevent further price declines, while resistance levels act as barriers that hinder price increases.
Support and resistance levels are divided into two main types: static and dynamic. Static levels are fixed horizontal lines on charts, formed based on historical price points, and are crucial due to repeated price reactions in these areas.
Dynamic levels, on the other hand, move with market trends and are often identified using tools like moving averages and trendlines. These levels are particularly useful for analyzing dynamic trends and identifying potential reversal points in financial markets.
The importance of support and resistance in technical analysis lies in their ability to pinpoint price reversal or continuation points. Professional traders use these levels to determine optimal entry and exit points and combine them with tools such as Fibonacci retracements or moving averages for precise strategies.
Detailed analysis of price behavior at these levels provides insights into trend strength and the likelihood of price breaks or reversals. By understanding these concepts, technical analysts can forecast future price movements and optimize their trading decisions using tools such as indicators and price action. Support and resistance levels, as a cornerstone of technical analysis, form the foundation for many trading strategies.

WMA Killer Ratio Analysis | JeffreyTimmermansWMA Killer Ratio Analysis
The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis is a highly responsive trend-following indicator designed to deliver quick and actionable insights on the ETHBTC ratio. By utilizing advanced smoothing methods and normalized thresholds, this tool efficiently identifies market trends. Let’s dive into the details:
Core Mechanics
1. Smoothing with Standard Deviations
The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis begins by smoothing source price data using standard deviations, which measure the typical variance in price movements. This creates dynamic deviation levels:
Upper Deviation: Marks the high boundary, indicating potential overbought conditions.
Lower Deviation: Marks the low boundary, signaling potential oversold conditions.
These levels are integrated with the Weighted Moving Average (WMA), filtering out market noise and honing in on significant price shifts.
2. Weighted WMA Bands
The WMA is further refined with dynamic weighting:
Upper Weight: Expands the WMA, creating an Upper Band to capture extreme price highs.
Lower Weight: Compresses the WMA, forming a Lower Band to reflect price lows.
This adaptive dual-weighting system highlights potential areas for trend reversals or continuations with precision.
3. Normalized WMA (NWMA) Analysis
The Normalized WMA adds a deeper layer of trend evaluation: It calculates the percentage change between the source price and its smoothed average. Positive NWMA values suggest overbought conditions, while negative NWMA values point to oversold conditions.
Traders can customize long (buy) and short (sell) thresholds to align signal sensitivity with their strategy and market conditions.
Signal Logic
Buy (Long) Signals: Triggered when the price remains above the lower deviation level and the NWMA crosses above the long threshold. Indicates a bullish trend and potential upward momentum.
Sell (Short) Signals: Triggered when the price dips below the upper deviation level and the NWMA falls beneath the short threshold. Suggests bearish momentum and a potential downward trend.
Note: The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis is most effective when paired with other forms of analysis, such as volume, higher time-frame trends, or fundamental data.
Visual Enhancements
The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis emphasizes usability with clear and dynamic plotting features:
1. Color-Coded Trend Indicators: The indicator changes color dynamically to represent trend direction. Users can customize colors to suit specific trading pairs (e.g., ETHBTC, SOLBTC).
2. Threshold Markers: Dashed horizontal lines represent long and short thresholds, giving traders a visual reference for signal levels.
3. Deviation Bands with Fill Areas: Upper and Lower Bands are plotted around the WMA. Shaded regions highlight deviation zones, making trend boundaries easier to spot.
4. Signal Arrows and Bar Coloring: Arrows or triangles appear on the chart to mark potential buy (upward) or sell (downward) points. Candlesticks are color-coded based on the prevailing trend, allowing traders to interpret the market direction at a glance.
Customization Options
Adjustable Thresholds: Tailor the sensitivity of long and short signals to your strategy.
Dynamic Weighting: Modify upper and lower band weights to adapt the WMA to varying market conditions.
Source Selection: Choose the preferred input for price data smoothing, such as closing price or an average (hl2).
The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis combines rigorous mathematical analysis with intuitive visual features, providing traders with a reliable way to identify trends and make data-driven decisions. While it excels at detecting key market shifts, its effectiveness increases when integrated into a broader trading strategy.

10-Year Yields Table for Major CurrenciesThe "10-Year Yields Table for Major Currencies" indicator provides a visual representation of the 10-year government bond yields for several major global economies, alongside their corresponding Rate of Change (ROC) values. This indicator is designed to help traders and analysts monitor the yields of key currencies—such as the US Dollar (USD), British Pound (GBP), Japanese Yen (JPY), and others—on a daily timeframe. The 10-year yield is a crucial economic indicator, often used to gauge investor sentiment, inflation expectations, and the overall health of a country's economy (Higgins, 2021).
Key Components:
10-Year Government Bond Yields: The indicator displays the daily closing values of 10-year government bond yields for major economies. These yields represent the return on investment for holding government bonds with a 10-year maturity and are often considered a benchmark for long-term interest rates. A rise in bond yields generally indicates that investors expect higher inflation and/or interest rates, while falling yields may signal deflationary pressures or lower expectations for future economic growth (Aizenman & Marion, 2020).
Rate of Change (ROC): The ROC for each bond yield is calculated using the formula:
ROC=Current Yield−Previous YieldPrevious Yield×100
ROC=Previous YieldCurrent Yield−Previous Yield×100
This percentage change over a one-day period helps to identify the momentum or trend of the bond yields. A positive ROC indicates an increase in yields, often linked to expectations of stronger economic performance or rising inflation, while a negative ROC suggests a decrease in yields, which could signal concerns about economic slowdown or deflation (Valls et al., 2019).
Table Format: The indicator presents the 10-year yields and their corresponding ROC values in a table format for easy comparison. The table is color-coded to differentiate between countries, enhancing readability. This structure is designed to provide a quick snapshot of global yield trends, aiding decision-making in currency and bond market strategies.
Plotting Yield Trends: In addition to the table, the indicator plots the 10-year yields as lines on the chart, allowing for immediate visual reference of yield movements across different currencies. The plotted lines provide a dynamic view of the yield curve, which is a vital tool for economic analysis and forecasting (Campbell et al., 2017).
Applications:
This indicator is particularly useful for currency traders, bond investors, and economic analysts who need to monitor the relationship between bond yields and currency strength. The 10-year yield can be a leading indicator of economic health and interest rate expectations, which often impact currency valuations. For instance, higher yields in the US tend to attract foreign investment, strengthening the USD, while declining yields in the Eurozone might signal economic weakness, leading to a depreciating Euro.
Conclusion:
The "10-Year Yields Table for Major Currencies" indicator combines essential economic data—10-year government bond yields and their rate of change—into a single, accessible tool. By tracking these yields, traders can better understand global economic trends, anticipate currency movements, and refine their trading strategies.

Key Features:
VWAP Baseline: The indicator calculates a volume-weighted moving average of the price, which serves as the core reference line for price analysis.
Z-Score: The z-score is calculated to determine how far the current price deviates from the mean, adjusted for volatility. This score helps identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Smoothing Option: Optionally, the indicator can be smoothed for better visualization, with the smoothing length being adjustable.
Real-time Data: The indicator provides real-time insights for multiple assets, such as Bitcoin (BTCUSD), Ethereum (ETHUSD), and Solana (SOLUSD), and can take the broader market performance (like the total crypto market) into account.
Z-Score Table: The indicator features an interactive table that provides valuable information on the z-scores of selected assets, allowing traders to quickly get an overview of market conditions. The table is strategically positioned above the chart for maximum visibility without interfering with the chart data.
Usage:
Overbought/Oversold: A z-score above +1.5 indicates overvaluation (overbought), while a score below -1.5 indicates undervaluation (oversold). This indicator helps in making informed trading decisions.
VWAP Range: The indicator offers a visual representation of the VWAP range, crucial for understanding price trends and market dynamics.
This indicator is ideal for investors interested in fundamental analysis while also needing technical insights to identify buy and sell opportunities. It helps to objectively assess market valuation and make well-informed decisions.
Important Note: This indicators works only in mean-reverting markets, not trending periods.

Forex Pair Yield Momentum This Pine Script strategy leverages yield differentials between the 2-year government bond yields of two countries to trade Forex pairs. Yield spreads are widely regarded as a fundamental driver of currency movements, as highlighted by international finance theories like the Interest Rate Parity (IRP), which suggests that currencies with higher yields tend to appreciate due to increased capital flows:
1. Dynamic Yield Spread Calculation:
• The strategy dynamically calculates the yield spread (yield_a - yield_b) for the chosen Forex pair.
• Example: For GBP/USD, the spread equals US 2Y Yield - UK 2Y Yield.
2. Momentum Analysis via Bollinger Bands:
• Yield momentum is computed as the difference between the current spread and its moving
Bollinger Bands are applied to identify extreme deviations:
• Long Entry: When momentum crosses below the lower band.
• Short Entry: When momentum crosses above the upper band.
3. Reversal Logic:
• An optional checkbox reverses the trading logic, allowing long trades at the upper band and short trades at the lower band, accommodating different market conditions.
4. Trade Management:
• Positions are held for a predefined number of bars (hold_periods), and each trade uses a fixed contract size of 100 with a starting capital of $20,000.
Theoretical Basis:
1. Yield Differentials and Currency Movements:
• Empirical studies, such as Clarida et al. (2009), confirm that interest rate differentials significantly impact exchange rate dynamics, especially in carry trade strategies .
• Higher-yields tend to appreciate against lower-yielding currencies due to speculative flows and demand for higher returns.
2. Bollinger Bands for Momentum:
• Bollinger Bands effectively capture deviations in yield momentum, identifying opportunities where price returns to equilibrium (mean reversion) or extends in trend-following scenarios (momentum breakout).
• As Bollinger (2001) emphasized, this tool adapts to market volatility by dynamically adjusting thresholds .

Z-Score + Valuation BTC | JeffreyTimmermansBTC Valuation Indicator with Z-Score Analysis
The BTC Valuation Indicator is a sophisticated tool designed to offer traders and analysts a deeper understanding of Bitcoin’s market valuation, empowering them to make more informed decisions. By utilizing a combination of key moving averages and a logarithmic trendline, along with advanced statistical analysis through the Z-Score Indicator, this tool provides a comprehensive view of Bitcoin’s potential undervaluation or overvaluation.
Key Features:
200MA/P (200-Day Moving Average to Price Ratio)
This component compares Bitcoin’s current price to its 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), offering insights into the long-term trend. A positive value signals a potential undervaluation of Bitcoin, while a negative value may indicate overvaluation.
Use case: Identifying long-term price trends to forecast potential buying or selling opportunities.
50MA/P (50-Day Moving Average to Price Ratio)
This ratio focuses on the short-term dynamics of Bitcoin’s price, comparing it to its 50-day SMA. It helps traders detect bullish or bearish trends in the immediate future.
Use case: Spotting short-term market movements and adjusting strategies accordingly.
LTL/P (Logarithmic TrendLine to Price Ratio)
This ratio incorporates Bitcoin’s historical age, using a logarithmic trendline to measure price movements against long-term expectations. A divergence from this trendline can signal potential overvaluation or undervaluation, assisting in aligning trading decisions with broader market trends.
Use case: Evaluating the overall trajectory of Bitcoin’s value over time and predicting significant market shifts.
Z-Score Indicator Integration:
The BTC Valuation Indicator utilizes the Z-Score, a powerful statistical measure, to assess how far each of the aforementioned ratios deviates from the mean. Z-Scores help standardize these ratios, allowing traders to gauge the severity of under or overvaluation compared to historical averages.
What is a Z-Score?
A Z-score measures how far a data point is from the mean in terms of standard deviations. A Z-score of 0 indicates the value is exactly at the mean, while a positive or negative score shows how much the value deviates from it. A higher Z-score signals a more significant deviation, potentially pointing to a market anomaly, while a Z-score near 0 indicates normal conditions.
For instance:
A Z-score above +2 indicates that Bitcoin may be overvalued, with the likelihood of a market correction or reversion to the mean.
A Z-score below -2 signals possible undervaluation, suggesting an upward trend may be on the horizon.
Z-Score and Market Volatility
The Z-Score Indicator can be used in conjunction with volatility measures, such as the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), to forecast potential market volatility. Just as a Z-scored VIX above +2 suggests decreasing volatility and the possibility of an upward trend, a Z-scored VIX below -2 indicates increasing volatility and a potential downward trend. This parallel can be used to predict Bitcoin’s potential movements in times of market uncertainty.
How to Use:
The BTC Valuation Indicator, when paired with the Z-Score, provides a more refined statistical framework to analyze Bitcoin’s market conditions. This integration allows traders to assess the severity of potential trends and price anomalies, assisting in the identification of profitable entry and exit points.
Important Considerations:
No Guarantee of Market Predictions: While this indicator is a valuable tool for assessing market conditions, no indicator can guarantee future performance. Always consider multiple factors and use the indicator as part of a comprehensive strategy.
Market Dynamics:
As market conditions evolve, continuously refine your approach. Historical performance may not be indicative of future results, and traders should remain vigilant to changing trends and developments.
By combining the power of moving averages, logarithmic trend lines, and Z-scores, the BTC Valuation Indicator equips investors with a robust, data-driven approach to Bitcoin valuation, enhancing decision-making and enabling a more nuanced understanding of market dynamics.

Buy & Hold aka. HODL StrategyThis is a simply HODL or Buy & Hold strategy, which is super useful to see the risk and reward of such a strategy.
The benefit of using this strategy is that you also get to see the Max Drawdown (Risk).
This way you can compare it to the Net Profit (Reward) and decide if it's worth it for you.
This strategy buys on the Start Date and sells either on the End Date or on the last candle if the End Date is in the future.
Remember that the strategy must close the trade (sell) otherwise you don't see any results in the Strategy Tester (this is how it works).
Engulfing Candlestick StrategyEver wondered whether the Bullish or Bearish Engulfing pattern works or has statistical significance? This script is for you. It works across all markets and timeframes.
The Engulfing Candlestick Pattern is a widely used technical analysis pattern that traders use to predict potential price reversals. It consists of two candles: a small candle followed by a larger one that "engulfs" the previous candle. This pattern is considered bullish when it occurs in a downtrend (bullish engulfing) and bearish when it occurs in an uptrend (bearish engulfing).
Statistical Significance of the Engulfing Pattern:
While many traders rely on candlestick patterns for making decisions, research on the statistical significance of these patterns has produced mixed results. A study by Dimitrios K. Koutoupis and K. M. Koutoupis (2014), titled "Testing the Effectiveness of Candlestick Chart Patterns in Forex Markets," indicates that candlestick patterns, including the engulfing pattern, can provide some predictive power, but their success largely depends on the market conditions and timeframe used. The researchers concluded that while some candlestick patterns can be useful, traders must combine them with other indicators or market knowledge to improve their predictive accuracy.
Another study by Brock, Lakonishok, and LeBaron (1992), "Simple Technical Trading Rules and the Stochastic Properties of Stock Returns," explores the profitability of technical indicators, including candlestick patterns, and finds that simple trading rules, such as those based on moving averages or candlestick patterns, can occasionally outperform a random walk in certain market conditions.
However, Jorion (1997), in his work "The Risk of Speculation: The Case of Technical Analysis," warns that the reliability of candlestick patterns, including the engulfing patterns, can vary significantly across different markets and periods. Therefore, it's important to use these patterns as part of a broader trading strategy that includes other risk management techniques and technical indicators.
Application Across Markets:
This script applies to all markets (e.g., stocks, commodities, forex) and timeframes, making it a versatile tool for traders seeking to explore the statistical effectiveness of the bullish and bearish engulfing patterns in their own trading.
Conclusion:
This script allows you to backtest and visualize the effectiveness of the Bullish and Bearish Engulfing patterns across any market and timeframe. While the statistical significance of these patterns may vary, the script provides a clear framework for evaluating their performance in real-time trading conditions. Always remember to combine such patterns with other risk management strategies and indicators to enhance their predictive power.

Up Gap Strategy with DelayThis strategy, titled “Up Gap Strategy with Delay,” is based on identifying up gaps in the price action of an asset. A gap is defined as the percentage difference between the current bar’s open price and the previous bar’s close price. The strategy triggers a long position if the gap exceeds a user-defined threshold and includes a delay period before entering the position. After entering, the position is held for a set number of periods before being closed.
Key Features:
1. Gap Threshold: The strategy defines an up gap when the gap size exceeds a specified threshold (in percentage terms). The gap threshold is an input parameter that allows customization based on the user’s preference.
2. Delay Period: After the gap occurs, the strategy waits for a delay period before initiating a long position. This delay can help mitigate any short-term volatility that might occur immediately after the gap.
3. Holding Period: Once the position is entered, it is held for a user-defined number of periods (holdingPeriods). This is to capture the potential post-gap trend continuation, as gaps often indicate strong directional momentum.
4. Gap Plotting: The strategy visually plots up gaps on the chart by placing a green label beneath the bar where the gap condition is met. Additionally, the background color turns green to highlight up-gap occurrences.
5. Exit Condition: The position is exited after the defined holding period. The strategy ensures that the position is closed after this time, regardless of whether the price is in profit or loss.
Scientific Background:
The gap theory has been widely studied in financial literature and is based on the premise that gaps in price often represent areas of significant support or resistance. According to research by Kaufman (2002), gaps in price action can be indicators of future price direction, particularly when they occur after a period of consolidation or a trend reversal. Moreover, Gaps and their Implications in Technical Analysis (Murphy, 1999) highlights that gaps can reflect imbalances between supply and demand, leading to high momentum and potential price continuation or reversal.
In trading strategies, utilizing gaps with specific conditions, such as delay and holding periods, can enhance the ability to capture significant price moves. The strategy’s delay period helps avoid potential market noise immediately after the gap, while the holding period seeks to capitalize on the price continuation that often follows gap formation.
This methodology aligns with momentum-based strategies, which rely on the persistence of trends in financial markets. Several studies, including Jegadeesh & Titman (1993), have documented the existence of momentum effects in stock prices, where past price movements can be predictive of future returns.
Conclusion:
This strategy incorporates gap detection and momentum principles, supported by empirical research in technical analysis, to attempt to capitalize on price movements following significant gaps. By waiting for a delay period and holding the position for a specified time, it aims to mitigate the risk associated with early volatility while maximizing the potential for sustained price moves.
Puell Multiple BTC | JeffreyTimmermansThe Puell Multiple is a metric that assesses the relationship between mining profitability and market cycles. It is calculated by comparing the daily value of newly issued coins (USD) to the 365-day moving average of daily coin issuance (USD).
This indicator works best on the 1D BTC Chart. When interpreting the Puell Multiple, it can generally be understood as follows:
High values indicate that miner profitability is significantly higher than the yearly average. This may lead to an increased incentive for miners to sell off their holdings, putting additional selling pressure on the market.
Low values suggest that miner profitability is lower than the yearly average. In this case, miners might experience financial strain, causing some to reduce their hash power by shutting down mining rigs. This, in turn, can reduce the number of coins being sold into the market, as remaining miners need to liquidate fewer coins to maintain operations, thereby decreasing the impact on the liquid supply.
The Puell Multiple is a metric used primarily in the cryptocurrency space, specifically for Bitcoin, to assess whether Bitcoin is overvalued or undervalued in relation to its mining rewards. It helps to gauge the profitability of miners and, by extension, to assess market conditions.
Use:
This Puell Multiple is invented for Long-Term, Trend Following Systems.
The Puell Multiple trend can be visualized through the color of the bars, which represents the direction of the trend, while the background indicates the strength of that trend.
Bar Color: The color of the bars typically changes to reflect whether the trend is bullish or bearish. For example, green bars may indicate a strong bullish trend, while red bars signal a bearish or declining trend. The color coding helps to quickly interpret the market's overall movement in relation to mining profitability.
Background Color: The background of the chart is used to reflect the strength of the trend. A darker or more intense background may signify a stronger trend, indicating that the market conditions are more pronounced, while a lighter background can suggest a weaker or more uncertain trend, showing less certainty in the market’s direction.
Together, the combination of bar color and background provides a clearer picture of both the trend's direction and its strength, making it easier to assess potential market behavior based on miner profitability and market cycles.
Puell Multiple and Moving Average: They can be used as an extra tool to confirm the bullish or bearish trend. When the Puell Multiple is above the Moving Average, this will suggest and confirm that the trend is bullish.
How you score this for your own systems is up to you.

SMA Trend Spectrum [InvestorUnknown]The SMA Trend Spectrum indicator is designed to visually represent market trends and momentum by using a series of Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) to create a color-coded spectrum or heatmap. This tool helps traders identify the strength and direction of market trends across various time frames within one chart.
Functionality:
SMA Calculation: The indicator calculates multiple SMAs starting from a user-defined base period (Starting Period) and increasing by a specified increment (Period Increment). This creates a sequence of moving averages that span from short-term to long-term perspectives.
Trend Analysis: Each segment of the spectrum compares three SMAs to determine the market's trend strength: Bullish (color-coded green) when the current price is above all three SMAs. Neutral (color-coded purple) when the price is above some but not all SMAs. Bearish (color-coded red) when the price is below all three SMAs.
f_col(x1, x2, x3) =>
min = ta.sma(src, x1)
mid = ta.sma(src, x2)
max = ta.sma(src, x3)
c = src > min and src > mid and src > max ? bull : src > min or src > mid or src > max ? ncol : bear
Heatmap Visualization: The indicator plots these trends as a vertical spectrum where each row represents a different set of SMAs, forming a heatmap-like display. The color of each segment in the heatmap directly correlates with market conditions, providing an intuitive view of market sentiment.
Signal Smoothing: Users can choose to smooth the trend signal using either a Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), or leave it as raw data (Signal Smoothing). The length of smoothing can be adjusted (Smoothing Length). The signal is displayed in a scaled way to automatically adjust for the best visual experience, ensuring that the trend is clear and easily interpretable across different chart scales and time frames
Additional Features:
Plot Signal: Optionally plots a line representing the average trend across all calculated SMAs. This line helps in identifying the overall market direction based on the spectrum data.
Bar Coloring: Bars on the chart can be colored according to the average trend strength, providing a quick visual cue of market conditions.
Usage:
Trend Identification: Use the heatmap to quickly assess if the market is trending strongly in one direction or if it's in a consolidation phase.
Entry/Exit Points: Look for shifts in color patterns to anticipate potential trend changes or confirmations for entry or exit points.
Momentum Analysis: The gradient from bearish to bullish across the spectrum can be used to gauge momentum and potentially forecast future price movements.
Notes:
The effectiveness of this indicator can vary based on market conditions, asset volatility, and the chosen SMA periods and increments.
It's advisable to combine this tool with other technical indicators or fundamental analysis for more robust trading decisions.
Disclaimer: Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use this indicator as part of a broader trading strategy.
Central Pivot Range (CPR)Central Pivot Range (CPR) Indicator
The Central Pivot Range (CPR) indicator is designed to help traders identify key levels of support and resistance based on pivot points calculated from the previous day's price action. The CPR levels act as critical areas of price convergence and potential reversal, which can help in anticipating future price movements. This version of the CPR indicator includes customizable features to enhance your trading strategy.
Key Features:
Custom Timeframe Support: The indicator allows you to select a custom timeframe for calculating the CPR levels. By default, it uses the daily timeframe ('D'), but you can adjust it to any other timeframe of your choosing. The indicator calculates the CPR and support/resistance levels based on the data from the selected timeframe.
Central Pivot (CP), Below Central Pivot (BC), and Top Central Pivot (TC):
Pivot (CP): The central pivot point is calculated as the average of the high, low, and close prices of the selected timeframe.
Below Central Pivot (BC): This is the midpoint between the high and low prices of the selected timeframe.
Top Central Pivot (TC): This is calculated based on the central pivot and below central pivot, providing a range between support and resistance levels.
Support and Resistance Levels (S1, S2, S3, R1, R2, R3):
Support Levels (S1, S2, S3): These are calculated based on the central pivot, providing potential areas where price may find support and reverse.
Resistance Levels (R1, R2, R3): These are calculated similarly but indicate potential resistance zones where price may face challenges to move higher.
Dynamic Plotting Based on User Input:
The indicator allows you to choose which levels to display on the chart, including the Central Pivot (CP), Support Levels (S1, S2, S3), and Resistance Levels (R1, R2, R3), all of which can be toggled on or off via checkboxes.
CP is displayed in white, BC and TC in blue, Support levels (S1, S2, S3) in green, and Resistance levels (R1, R2, R3) in red.
Daywise Calculations:
The CPR and levels are based on the previous day’s price action, providing historical support and resistance levels that can be useful for intraday analysis.
The request.security function is used to fetch the pivot data from the custom timeframe, ensuring the levels are calculated based on the last completed period (previous day) without repainting.
Customization Options:
CPR Plot: Toggle the visibility of the central pivot range (CPR) lines.
Support Levels (S1, S2, S3): Choose to show or hide the support levels.
Resistance Levels (R1, R2, R3): Choose to show or hide the resistance levels.
Custom Timeframe: Set a custom timeframe for calculating the CPR, allowing for more flexible and tailored analysis.
