Global Central Banks Balance Sheet USD-AdjustedSumming up central banks balance sheet of:
US , China, EU, Japan, UK,
Swiss, Australia, Canada, Norway
Brazil, Russia, India, Mexico, Indonesia
Taiwan, HK, Korea, SG, Thailand
Then adjusting it to USD as the common denominator for comparison.
Net Foreign Assets (or foreign reserves) + Net Domestic Assets (or domestic credit, usually Money Supply M1) = Total Assets of the Central Bank Balance Sheet
In some way, the central bank balance sheet could be M2. However, I find some of the indicators don't add up and I don't have the time to check them out. This indicator is just a proxy. The issue with using central bank balance sheet to determine liquidity in the system is that it doesn't account for 1) collateral used for liquidity management in the public and private system, 2) shadow-banking financial system. As usual, US + EU + Japan publishes their data every weekly and the rest of the central banks publish monthly. I have removed any country with hard-pegged currencies except HK.

Tops & Bottoms - Time of Day Report█ OVERVIEW
The indicator tracks and reports the percentage of occurrence of daily tops and bottoms by the time of the day.
█ CONCEPTS
At certain times during the trading day, the market reverses and marks the high or low of the day. Tops and bottoms are vital when entering a trade, as they will decide if you are catching the train or being straight offside. They are equally crucial when exiting a position, as they will determine if you are closing at the optimal price or seeing your unrealized profits vanish.
This indicator is before all for educational purposes. It aims to make the knowledge available to all traders, facilitate understanding of the various markets, and ultimately get to know your trading pairs by heart.
Tops and bottoms percentage of occurrence on EURGBP (London time).

BearMetricsLooking at the financial health of a company is a critical aspect of stock analysis because it provides essential insights into the company's ability to generate profits, meet its financial obligations, and sustain its operations over the long term. Here are several reasons why assessing a company's financial health is important when evaluating a stock:
1. **Profitability and Earnings Growth**: A company's financial statements, particularly the income statement, provide information about its profitability. Analyzing earnings and revenue trends over time can help you assess whether the company is growing or declining. Investors generally prefer companies that show consistent earnings growth.
2. **Risk Assessment**: Financial statements, including the balance sheet and income statement, offer a comprehensive view of a company's assets, liabilities, and equity. By evaluating these components, you can gauge the level of financial risk associated with the stock. A healthy balance sheet typically includes a manageable debt load and strong equity.
3. **Cash Flow Analysis**: Cash flow statements reveal how effectively a company manages its cash, which is crucial for day-to-day operations, debt servicing, and future investments. Positive cash flow is essential for a company's stability and growth prospects.
4. **Debt Levels**: Examining a company's debt levels and debt-to-equity ratio can help you determine its leverage. High debt levels can be a cause for concern, as they may indicate that the company is at risk of financial distress, especially if it struggles to meet interest payments.
5. **Liquidity**: Liquidity is vital for a company's short-term survival. By assessing a company's current assets and current liabilities, you can gauge its ability to meet its short-term obligations. Companies with low liquidity may face difficulties during economic downturns or unexpected financial challenges.
6. **Dividend Sustainability**: If you're an income-oriented investor interested in dividend-paying stocks, you'll want to ensure that the company can sustain its dividend payments. A healthy balance sheet and consistent cash flow can provide confidence in dividend sustainability.
7. **Investment Confidence**: A company with a strong financial position is more likely to attract investor confidence and positive sentiment. This can lead to higher stock prices and a lower cost of capital for the company, which can be beneficial for its growth initiatives.
8. **Risk Mitigation**: By assessing a company's financial health, you can mitigate investment risk. Understanding a company's financial position allows you to make more informed decisions about the level of risk you are comfortable with and whether a particular stock aligns with your risk tolerance.
9. **Long-Term Viability**: Ultimately, investors are interested in companies that have the potential for long-term success. A company with a healthy financial foundation is more likely to weather economic downturns, adapt to industry changes, and thrive over the years.
In summary, examining a company's financial health is a fundamental aspect of stock analysis because it provides a comprehensive picture of the company's current state and its ability to navigate future challenges and capitalize on opportunities. It helps investors make informed decisions and assess the long-term prospects of a stock in their portfolio.
sᴛᴀɢᴇ ᴀɴᴀʏʟsɪsStage analysis is a technical analysis approach that involves categorizing a stock's price movements into different stages to help traders and investors make more informed decisions. It was popularized by Stan Weinstein in his book, "Secrets for Profiting in Bull and Bear Markets." The stages are used to identify the overall trend and to time entries and exits in the market. Here's an explanation of the typical stages in stage analysis:
1. **Stage 1: Accumulation Phase**
- In this stage, the stock is in a downtrend or has been trading sideways for an extended period.
- Volume is relatively low, indicating that institutions and smart money may be quietly accumulating shares.
- The stock may test and hold support levels, showing signs of stability.
- The goal for traders in this stage is to identify the potential for a trend reversal.
2. **Stage 2: Markup (Bull Market) Phase**
- This is the stage where the stock starts a significant uptrend.
- Volume increases as institutional and retail investors become more interested in the stock.
- Technical indicators like moving averages and trendlines confirm the uptrend.
- Traders and investors look for buying opportunities during pullbacks or consolidations within the uptrend.
3. **Stage 3: Distribution Phase**
- In this stage, the stock's price begins to show signs of weakness.
- Volume might decrease as institutions and smart money start selling their positions.
- The stock may start forming a trading range or exhibit bearish chart patterns.
- Traders should consider taking profits or reducing exposure to the stock as it may enter a downtrend.
4. **Stage 4: Markdown (Bear Market) Phase**
- This is the stage where the stock enters a significant downtrend.
- Volume may remain elevated as selling pressure dominates.
- Technical indicators confirm the downtrend.
- Traders and investors should avoid buying the stock and may consider short-selling or staying on the sidelines.
Stage analysis helps traders and investors make decisions based on the current stage of a stock's price movement. The goal is to enter during the accumulation phase or early in the markup phase and exit during the distribution phase or before the markdown phase to maximize profits and minimize losses.

skThis Pine Script is an indicator designed to mark and highlight specific trading sessions on a TradingView chart. Here's a description of the script's functionality:
1. *Session Selection*: The script allows you to select a session time frame using the `session_input` input. The available options for session time frames are "D" (daily), "W" (weekly), "M" (monthly), "H" (hourly), "15" (15 minutes), "5" (5 minutes), and "1" (1 minute).
2. *Session Times*: You can specify the start and end times for three different trading sessions - CBDR (Central Bank Dealer Range), Asia, and London - using the corresponding input options. These times are specified in Indian Standard Time (IST).
3. *Time Calculation*: The script calculates the start and end times for each session based on the specified hours and minutes. It uses the `timestamp` function to create time objects for these sessions.
4. *Session Highlighting*: The script creates rectangles on the chart to highlight each session:
- CBDR Session: A gray rectangle is drawn during the CBDR session time.
- Asia Session: Another gray rectangle is drawn during the Asia session time.
- London Session: A green rectangle is drawn at the top of the chart during the London session time.
5. *Transparency*: The rectangles have a transparency level of 90%, allowing you to see the price data beneath them while still marking the sessions.
6. *Overlay*: The indicator is set to overlay on the price chart, so it doesn't obstruct the price data.
7. *Customization*: You can customize the session times and appearance by adjusting the input values in the settings panel of the indicator.
Overall, this script provides a visual way to identify and highlight specific trading sessions on your TradingView chart, helping traders understand price action in different market sessions.
Double MACD Pattern 1.0This script is designed to assist traders in identifying potential trading signals and trends based on the MACD indicator. Users can adjust the input parameters to fine-tune the indicator to their trading preferences. When specific conditions are met, alerts are generated to notify the user of potential trading opportunities.
Indicator Description:
The script defines a custom indicator that calculates and plots two sets of Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) lines along with their signal lines.
It allows users to configure various parameters for MACD calculation, such as fast and slow lengths for both MACD 1 and MACD 2, as well as signal lengths for both.
Plotting:
The script plots the MACD lines and signal lines for both MACD 1 and MACD 2 on the chart with different colors and line styles.
It also plots a middle line at zero for reference.
Alerts:
The script defines conditions for generating alerts based on MACD crossover and crossunder events for both MACD 1 and MACD 2.
Alerts are generated for the following scenarios:
A long signal is generated when MACD 1 crosses under its signal line while MACD 2 crosses over its signal line.
A short signal is generated when MACD 1 crosses over its signal line while MACD 2 crosses under its signal line.
An up trend signal is generated when MACD 2 crosses over MACD 1.
A down trend signal is generated when MACD 1 crosses over MACD 2.
Alerts are included in the script to notify users of these specific trading signals.
Please note that this script is meant for educational purposes and should be used cautiously in a real trading environment. It's important to have a thorough understanding of technical analysis and risk management when using such indicators in actual trading.
blackOrb ZoneBuying near the bottom and selling near the peak can be a challenging trading approach. However, it all begins with the ability to identify these essential zones. This indicator is targeting support and resistance with heightened accuracy. It utilizes features like:
I. Multi-Level Weighting for Enhanced Support and Resistance Zones
II. Vertical Zone Range Adjustment for Enhanced Price Level Identification
III. High-Time Frame for Solid Macro Validation
IV. Projection Function for Informed Trade Management
V. Automatic Level Identification for Pinpointing Potential Order Positions
VI. Customizable Pivot Analysis for Accurate Zone Identifications
Technical Methodology
I. Multi-Level Weighting for Enhanced Support and Resistance Zones
Support and resistance are more accurately represented as wider zones rather than singular lines. In practical application, relevant support or resistance levels often converge around a central mean-weighted level within a zone.
This indicator visually represents these zones by calculating values from open, high, low, and close prices, accentuating them through varying opacities. Higher opacity within an area indicates a higher likelihood of it serving as a relevant support or resistance level.
Multiple mean options within the settings menu encompass weighted average calculations that utilize different combinations of price data within the relevant pivot analysis phase. This versatility allows users to target pertinent levels within a zone. For instance, when employing hlcc4 price data, the calculation is as follows:
mean_price_hlcc4 = (high + low + close + close) / 4
II. Vertical Zone Range Adjustment for Enhanced Price Level Identification
This feature enables users to precisely adjust the vertical zone range for price references within potential support or resistance phases. For instance, decreasing the reference setting results in a more granular validation within a narrower range. This creates vertically thinner zones with increased price level precision, although it may offer a less comprehensive perspective.
III. High-Time Frame for Solid Macro Validation
The indicator enhances pivot points, potentially in conjunction with high-time frame validation, to identify significant price zones with heightened confirmation strength driven by volume. Higher time frames provide more extensive volume verification, for instance, comparing the 4-hour to the 24-hour timeframe (a multiple of six).
This feature involves cross-referencing data from higher time frames, heightening the reliability of support and resistance zones and providing valuable insights into potential trading interest levels.
Technically, the indicator applies the identical rigorous analysis to both lower and higher time frames. This approach facilitates a more comprehensive perspective and aids in the clearer identification of overarching macro support and resistance levels, even when focusing on smaller timeframes. For instance, a potential support zone identified on the daily time frame can gain higher confidence when confirmed on a weekly chart.
IV. Projection Function for Informed Trade Management
The projection function visually extends the most recent analysis of support and resistance zones forward, in accordance with the user's configured parameters.
By displaying precise price values at these visualized support and resistance levels, this indicator offers valuable assistance in decision-making, particularly when planning real-time orders or when engaged in an active trade management phase (e.g., for the purpose of adjusting stop-loss levels post-entry).
Note: This function is based on historical data. It may not account for unforeseen market events. It's important to complement this feature with ongoing analysis of real-time market data.
V. Automatic Level Identification for Pinpointing Potential Order Positions
It is empirically observed that traders frequently position orders at price levels that conform to quantized values due to cognitive biases.*
Consequently, blackOrb Zone not only facilitates the identification of pertinent levels within a weighted zone but also features an "auto" functionality designed to analyze price dynamics in the proximity of these relevant levels. The objective is to identify discrete values in close vicinity, which exhibit a higher likelihood of serving as authentic support and resistance zones.
This processing approach assists traders in precisely locating the central mean-weighted level within a given zone and identifies proximate quantized levels.
Note: This method becomes especially relevant during phases of price retesting, where market participants converge, contributing to a further refinement of levels, indicative of an asymmetric balance between supply and demand.

VI. Customizable Pivot Analysis for Accurate Zone Identifications
The indicator employs pivot points to pinpoint key price zones where price dynamics could encounter buying or selling pressure.
Essential components of this method involve comparing time units both to the left and right within a designated phase of support or resistance, effectively defining the search range for pivotal points.
For instance, in the analysis below, the search is for the highest price point that hasn't been surpassed within a certain resistance zone in the last 10 time units to the left and 10 time units to the right:

Potential Trade Management Applications of blackOrb Zone
- Reversal Trading : Robust support zones with bullish signals can indicate opportune moments for buying or long position entries, whereas confirmed resistance zones can be identified for selling or short position entries.
- Breakout Trading : Anticipating price surges as price breach support or resistance level. A resistance breakout can signal a bullish price dynamic, while a support breakdown may suggest a bearish price dynamic.
- Range Trading : In lateral sideways markets, users can capitalize on support zones for buying and resistance zones for selling, profiting from price fluctuations.
- Take-Profit Management : For buying or long positions, resistance zones can be identified to determine suitable take-profit levels either within or near these zones - for short positions, vice versa with support zones.
- Stop-Loss Management : For buying or long positions, support zones can be identified to determine appropriate stop-loss levels beneath these zones - for short positions, vice versa with resistance zones to determine stop-loss levels above these zones.
Note on Usability
blackOrb Zone can have synergies with blackOrb Price as both indicators combined can give a bigger picture for supporting comprehensive and multifaceted data-driven trading analysis.
This tool was meticulously created to serve as an additional frame for the seamless integration of other more granular trading indicators. This indicator isn't intended for standalone trading application. Instead, it is serving as a supplementary tool for orientation within broader trading strategies.
Irrespective of market conditions, it can harmonize with a wider range of trading styles and instruments / trading pairs / indices like Stocks, Gold, FX, EURUSD, SPX500, GBPUSD, BTCUSD and Oil.

Rule of 16 - LowerThe "Rule of 16" is a simple guideline used by traders and investors to estimate the expected annualized volatility of the S&P 500 Index (SPX) based on the level of the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX). The VIX, often referred to as the "fear gauge" or "fear index," measures the market's expectations for future volatility. It is calculated using the implied volatility of a specific set of S&P 500 options.
The Rule of 16 provides a rough approximation of the expected annualized percentage change in the S&P 500 based on the VIX level. Here's how it works:
Find the VIX level: Look up the current value of the VIX. Let's say it's currently at 20.
Apply the Rule of 16: Divide the VIX level by 16. In this example, 20 divided by 16 equals 1.25.
Result: The result of this calculation represents the expected annualized percentage change in the S&P 500. In this case, 1.25% is the estimated annualized volatility.
So, according to the Rule of 16, a VIX level of 20 suggests an expected annualized volatility of approximately 1.25% in the S&P 500.
Here's how you can use the Rule of 16:
Market Sentiment: The VIX is often used as an indicator of market sentiment. When the VIX is high (above its historical average), it suggests that investors expect higher market volatility, indicating potential uncertainty or fear in the markets. Conversely, when the VIX is low, it suggests lower expected volatility and potentially more confidence in the markets.
Risk Management: Traders and investors can use the Rule of 16 to estimate the potential risk associated with their portfolios. For example, if you have a portfolio of S&P 500 stocks and the VIX is at 20, you can use the Rule of 16 to estimate that the annualized volatility of your portfolio may be around 1.25%. This information can help you make decisions about position sizing and risk management.
Option Pricing: Options traders may use the Rule of 16 to get a quick estimate of the implied annualized volatility priced into S&P 500 options. It can help them assess whether options are relatively expensive or cheap based on the VIX level.
It's important to note that the Rule of 16 is a simplification and provides only a rough estimate of expected volatility. Market conditions and the relationship between the VIX and the S&P 500 can change over time. Therefore, it should be used as a guideline rather than a precise forecasting tool. Traders and investors should consider other factors and use additional analysis to make informed decisions.
World Class SMC [WinWorld]This indicator uses valid pullbacks in order to draw market structure with strict accordance to TradingHub strategy.
Features
Our indicator uses a number of price concepts, such as:
IDM
BoS & ChoCh ( also their sweeps )
Automatic resolving of ChoCh-IDM and IDM-BoS conflicts
Orderblocks (IDM, Extreme)
True Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
True PDH/PDL
SCOB pattern
One of the core features is the ability to choose a time point, from which the market structure will be drawn. This feature alone allows you to test your most desired hypotheses about the market movements within a few clicks, so no more guesses and "what if"s, because you get the opportunity to test everything yourself and right now.
Settings
Let's review the settings themselves:
Extended Structure: allows you to choose between drawing market structure for a whole timeline or from specific time point only;
Build OB by sweeps: allows you to only draw orderblocks from candle, which took liquidity from previous candle by sweep;
Structure colours & text: allows you to customise visuals representations of market structure elements on your chart;
Structure visuals: allows you to choose which elements of market structure you want / don't want to see on your chart;
Show trend: allows you to choose the way market structure trend will be displayed on your chart: divider or background colouring ;
Alerts for each and every event , whether it is a new BoS, ChoCh, orderblock and etc.
Usage Examples
IDM Orderblock ( OB-IDM )
Basic demonstration
When price reaches OB-IDM, you will be able to receive an alert. After that, check if the candle, that reached OB-IDM, closed inside or above ( bearish scenario )/ below ( bullish scenario ) OB-IDM's boundaries. If conditions above were met, go on LTF and look for an entry.
Extreme Orderblock ( OB-EXT )
Basic demonstration
Similar to OB-IDM situation: When price reaches OB-EXT, you will be able to receive an alert. After that, check if the candle, that reached OB-EXT, closed inside or above ( bearish scenario )/ below ( bullish scenario ) OB-EXT's boundaries. If conditions above were met, go on LTF and look for an entry.
Sweep PDH/PDL
Basic demonstration
* PDH — Previous Day High
* PDL — Previous Day Low
When you received PDH sweep alert and current trend is bearish, go on LTF to find entry point. ( bullish scenario: PDL sweep and current trend is bullish )
Sweep ChoCh
Basic demonstration
If you get alert of sweeped ChoCh, it usually means that price grabbed the liquidity from extremum points and is ready to continue going with the trend. Go on LTF to find an entry.
Median of Means Estimator Median of Means (MoM) is a measure of central tendency like mean (average) and median. However, it could be a better and robust estimator of central tendency when the data is not normal, asymmetric, have fat tails (like stock price data) and have outliers. The MoM can be used as a robust trend following tool and in other derived indicators.
Median of means (MoM) is calculated as follows, the MoM estimator shuffles the "n" data points and then splits them into k groups of m data points (n= k*m). It then computes the Arithmetic Mean of each group (k). Finally, it calculate the median over the resulting k Arithmetic Means. This technique diminishes the effect that outliers have on the final estimation by splitting the data and only considering the median of the resulting sub-estimations. This preserves the overall trend despite the data shuffle.
Below is an example to illustrate the advantages of MoM
Set A Set B Set C
3 4 4
3 4 4
3 5 5

9 9 50
10 100 100
Median 5 5 5
Mean 5.5 12.1 17.9
MoM 5.7 6.0 17.3
For all three sets the median is the same, though set A and B are the same except for one outlier in set B (100) it skews the mean but the median is resilient. However, in set C the group has several high values despite that the median is not responsive and still give 5 as the central tendency of the group, but the median of means is a value of 17.3 which is very close to the group mean 17.9. In all three cases (set A, B and C) the MoM provides a better snapshot of the central tendency of the group. Note: The MoM is dependent on the way we split the data initially and the value might slightly vary when the randomization is done sevral time and the resulting value can give the confidence interval of the MoM estimator.
Average True Range (ATR) % KTSLSome traders calculate using percentages when trading. The original ATR indicator calculates using price movements, so it differs for each stock. To avoid this, I changed the ATR indicator to show price movement as a percentage. The red line is the percentage value of the volatility of the original ATR indicator. The white line is 1.6 times the original indicator. The green line is 2.5 times the white line. These values can be adjusted. I wish you good luck.

Supertrend
Definition
Supertrend is a trend-following indicator based on Average True Range (ATR). The calculation of its single line combines trend detection and volatility. It can be used to detect changes in trend direction and to position stops.
The basics
The Supertrend is a trend-following indicator. It is overlaid on the main chart and their plots indicate the current trend. A Supertrend can be used with varying periods (daily, weekly, intraday etc.) and on varying instruments.
The Supertrend has several inputs that you can adjust to match your trading strategy. Adjusting these settings allows you to make the indicator more or less sensitive to price changes.
For the Supertrend inputs, you can adjust atrLength and multiplier:
the atrLength setting is the lookback length for the ATR calculation;
multiplier is what the ATR is multiplied by to offset the bands from price.
When the price falls below the indicator curve, it turns red and indicates a downtrend. Conversely, when the price rises above the curve, the indicator turns green and indicates an uptrend. After each close above or below Supertrend, a new trend appears.
Summary
The Supertrend helps you make the right trading decisions. However, there are times when it generates false signals. Therefore, it is best to use the right combination of several indicators. Like any other indicator, Supertrend works best when used with other indicators such as MACD, Parabolic SAR, or RSI.
Exponential Moving Average
Definition
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a specific type of moving average that points towards the importance of the most recent data and information from the market. The Exponential Moving Average is just like it’s name says - it’s exponential, weighting the most recent prices more than the less recent prices. The EMA can be compared and contrasted with the simple moving average.
Similar to other moving averages, the EMA is a technical indicator that produces buy and sell signals based on data that shows evidence of divergence and crossovers from general and historical averages. Additionally, the EMA tries to amplify the importance that the most recent data points play in a calculation.
It is common to use more than one EMA length at once, to provide more in-depth and focused data. For example, by choosing 10-day and 200-day moving averages, a trader is able to determine more from the results in a long-term trade, than a trader who is only analyzing one EMA length.
It’s best to use the EMA when for trending markets, as it shows uptrends and downtrends when a market is strong and weak, respectively. An experienced trader will know to look both at the line the EMA projects, as well as the rate of change that comes from each bar as it moves to the next data point. Analyzing these points and data streams correctly will help the trader determine when they should buy, sell, or switch investments from bearish to bullish or vice versa.
Short-term averages, on the other hand, is a different story when analyzing Exponential Moving Average data. It is most common for traders to quote and utilize 12- and 26-day EMAs in the short-term. This is because they are used to create specific indicators. Look into Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) for more information. Similarly, the 50- and 200-day moving averages are most common for analyzing long-term trends.
Moving averages can be very useful for traders using technical analysis for profit. It is important to identify and realize, however, their shortcomings, as all moving averages tend to suffer from recurring lag. It is difficult to modify the moving average to work in your favor at times, often having the preferred time to enter or exit the market pass before the moving average even shows changes in the trend or price movement for that matter.
All of this is true, however, the EMA strives to make this easier for traders. The EMA is unique because it places more emphasis on the most recent data. Therefore, price movement and trend reversals or changes are closely monitored, allowing for the EMA to react quicker than other moving averages.
Limitations
Although using the Exponential Moving Average has a lot of advantages when analyzing market trends, it is also uncertain whether or not the use of most recent data points truly affects technical and market analysis. In addition, the EMA relies on historical data as its basis for operating and because news, events, and other information can change rapidly the indicator can misinterpret this information by weighting the current prices higher than when the event actually occurred.
Summary
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a moving average and technical indicator that reflects and projects the most recent data and information from the market to a trader and relies on a base of historical data. It is one of many different types of moving averages and has an easily calculable formula.
The added features to the indicator are made for training, it is advisable to use it with caution in tradings.

Stochastic RSI (STOCH RSI)
Definition
The Stochastic RSI indicator (Stoch RSI) is essentially an indicator of an indicator. It is used in technical analysis to provide a stochastic calculation to the RSI indicator. This means that it is a measure of RSI relative to its own high/low range over a user defined period of time. The Stochastic RSI is an oscillator that calculates a value between 0 and 1 which is then plotted as a line. This indicator is primarily used for identifying overbought and oversold conditions.
The basics
It is important to remember that the Stoch RSI is an indicator of an indicator making it two steps away from price. RSI is one step away from price and therefore a stochastic calculation of the RSI is two steps away. This is important because as with any indicator that is multiple steps away from price, Stoch RSI can have brief disconnects from actual price movement. That being said, as a range bound indicator, the Stoch RSI's primary function is identifying crossovers as well as overbought and oversold conditions.

That being said, as a range bound indicator, the Stoch RSI's primary function is identifying crossovers as well as overbought and oversold conditions.
Overbought/Oversold
Overbought and Oversold conditions are traditionally different than the RSI. While RSI overbought and oversold conditions are traditionally set at 70 for overbought and 30 for oversold, Stoch RSI are typically .80 and .20 respectively. When using the Stoch RSI, overbought and oversold work best when trading along with the underlying trend.
During an uptrend, look for oversold conditions for points of entry.
During a downtrend, look for overbought conditions for points of entry.
Summary
When using Stoch RSI in technical analysis, a trader should be careful. By adding the Stochastic calculation to RSI, speed is greatly increased. This can generate many more signals and therefore more bad signals as well as the good ones. Stoch RSI needs to be combined with additional tools or indicators in order to be at its most effective. Using trend lines or basic chart pattern analysis can help to identify major, underlying trends and increase the Stoch RSI's accuracy. Using Stoch RSI to make trades that go against the underlying trend is a dangerous proposition.

MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence)
Definition
MACD is an extremely popular indicator used in technical analysis. MACD can be used to identify aspects of a security's overall trend. Most notably these aspects are momentum, as well as trend direction and duration. What makes MACD so informative is that it is actually the combination of two different types of indicators. First, MACD employs two Moving Averages of varying lengths (which are lagging indicators) to identify trend direction and duration. Then, MACD takes the difference in values between those two Moving Averages (MACD Line) and an EMA of those Moving Averages (Signal Line) and plots that difference between the two lines as a histogram which oscillates above and below a center Zero Line. The histogram is used as a good indication of a security's momentum.
MACD Line is a result of taking a longer term EMA and subtracting it from a shorter term EMA.The most commonly used values are 26 days for the longer term EMA and 12 days for the shorter term EMA, but it is the trader's choice.
The Signal Line.
The Signal Line is an EMA of the MACD Line described in Component 1. The trader can choose what period length EMA to use for the Signal Line however 9 is the most common.
The MACD Histogram.
As time advances, the difference between the MACD Line and Signal Line will continually differ. The MACD histogram takes that difference and plots it into an easily readable histogram. The difference between the two lines oscillates around a Zero Line.
A general interpretation of MACD is that when MACD is positive and the histogram value is increasing, then upside momentum is increasing. When MACD is negative and the histogram value is decreasing, then downside momentum is increasing.
What to look for
The MACD indicator is typically good for identifying three types of basic signals; Signal Line Crossovers, Zero Line Crossovers, and Divergence.
SIGNAL LINE CROSSOVERS
A Signal Line Crossover is the most common signal produced by the MACD. First one must consider that the Signal Line is essentially an indicator of an indicator. The Signal Line is calculating the Moving Average of the MACD Line. Therefore the Signal Line lags behind the MACD line. That being said, on the occasions where the MACD Line crosses above or below the Signal Line, that can signify a potentially strong move.
The strength of the move is what determines the duration of Signal Line Crossover. Understanding and being able to analyze move strength, as well as being able to recognize false signals, is a skill that comes with experience.
The first type of Signal Line Crossover to examine is the Bullish Signal Line Crossover. Bullish Signal Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crosses above the Signal Line.
The second type of Signal Line Crossover to examine is the Bearish Signal Line Crossover. Bearish Signal Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crosses below the Signal Line.
Zero line crossovers
Zero Line Crossovers have a very similar premise to Signal Line Crossovers. Instead of crossing the Signal Line, Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crossed the Zero Line and either becomes positive (above 0) or negative (below 0).
The first type of Zero Line Crossover to examine is the Bullish Zero Line Crossover. Bullish Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crosses above the Zero Line and go from negative to positive.
The second type of Zero Line Crossover to examine is the Bearish Zero Line Crossover. Bearish Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crosses below the Zero Line and go from positive to negative.
Divergence
Divergence is another signal created by the MACD. Simply put, divergence is when the MACD and actual price are not in agreement.
For example, Bullish Divergence occurs when price records a lower low, but the MACD records a higher low. The movement of price can provide evidence of the current trend, however changes in momentum as evidenced by the MACD can sometimes precede a significant reversal.
Bearish Divergence is, of course, the opposite. Bearish Divergence occurs when price records a higher high while the MACD records a lower high.
Summary
What makes the MACD such a valuable tool for technical analysis is that it is almost like two indicators in one. It can help to identify not just trends, but it can measure momentum as well. It takes two separate lagging indicators and adds the aspect of momentum which is much more active or predictive That kind of versatility is why it has been and is used by trader's and analysts across the entire spectrum of finance.
Despite MACD's obvious attributes, just like with any indicator, the trader or analyst needs to exercise caution. There are just some things that MACD doesn't do well which may tempt a trader regardless. Most notably, traders may be tempted into using MACD as a way to find overbought or oversold conditions. This is not a good idea. Remember, MACD is not bound to a range, so what is considered to be highly positive or negative for one instrument may not translate well to a different instrument.
With sufficient time and experience, almost anybody who wants to analyze chart data should be able to make good use out of the MACD.

blackOrb PriceblackOrb's Aspiration: Enhancing the Functionality of Area Charts
At its core, an area chart analysis serves as the foundational structure for blackOrb Price. Area charts can be seen as an addition to conventional price charts. Unlike price line charts, which connect closing prices with lines, an area chart fills the space between high and low prices, creating a visual representation of price ranges. This approach can offer several advantages, particularly in assessing price volatility and price dynamics.
A wider area between high and low suggests high volatility, while a narrower area indicates lower volatility. The orientation of the closing price concerning the high-low range provides insights into whether buyers or sellers are exerting influence on the market.
Combined with the following elements, this chart tool can support comprehensive data-driven trading analysis:
- Integrated moving averages for price dynamic insights
- Zigzag pivot identification for price level insights
- Stochastic lookback analysis for turning point insights
- Ghost mode for comparative insights
Technical Methodology
I. Integrated Moving Averages for Price Dynamic Insights
Incorporating various MA alternatives allows traders to gain insights into not only price dynamics but also their underlying strength, which is reflected in trading activity. This strength is visually depicted by the derived price line within blackOrb's Price Area Chart.
Among the array of MA alternatives, VWMA stands out as a suitable implementation choice for integrating volume data. It goes beyond the scope of a simple moving average, considering both price and volume in its calculation, as shown in the following formula:
(C1 x V1 + C2 x V2 + ... + CN x Vn) / (V1 + V2 + ... + Vn)
II. Zigzag Pivot Identification for Price Level Insights
Zigzag Pivot Identification can be a valuable tool for recognizing possible price movements and potential turning points. It operates by pinpointing pivotal moments where prices alter their course. Essential components of this method involve comparing time units both to the left and right within a designated price dynamic phase, effectively defining the search range for pivotal points.
For instance, in the analysis below, the search is for the highest price point that hasn't been surpassed in the last 10 time units to the left and 10 time units to the right:
ta.pivothigh(10, 10)
The lookback variables analyze price points by simultaneously examining a specified number of time units before and after a potential pivot point as the central reference. A pivot is identified when a price point remains unbreached throughout this period.
Note: This method retroactively validates structures, implying that this tool may redraw or adjust its values as price data evolves. This leads to inconsistency and a lack of predictability.
III. Stochastic Lookback Analysis for Turning Point Insights
The stochastic calculation methodology of this feature centers around the following formula:
100 * (close - lowest(low, length)) / (highest(high, length) - lowest(low, length))
This key formula employs a stochastic calculation methodology that assesses the percentage deviation of the closing price from the lowest low over a specified timeframe (length), relative to the span between the highest high and the lowest low. The outcome is normalized within a range of 0 to 100, providing insights into the relative position of the closing price within the high-low range. Traders can define the specific periods over which the stochastic calculation is performed.
Based on this stochastic analysis, the indicator integrates area chart coloring, affording users the flexibility to adjust the sensitivity of area chart coloring according to customized stochastic look-back evaluation phases. Consequently, the coloration by length evaluation can mirror a comprehension of market dynamics.
Note: However, it's important to recognize that the efficacy of evaluation coloring might be compromised during periods of lateral price movement, characterized by less prominent market trends.
IV. Ghost Mode for Comparative Insights
Unveiling convergences and divergences, the Ghost Mode overlays two price charts, which can reveal price trajectories and reactions (e.g. Apple stock's potential response to the NASDAQ 100 Technology Sector Index).
Note: This approach may not capture nuanced correlations during intricate market scenarios.
Note on Usability
This tool is an intricately designed area chart, meticulously created to serve as a fundamental canvas for the seamless integration of other more granular trading indicators.
blackOrb Price can have synergies with blackOrb Candle as both indicators combined can give a bigger picture for supporting comprehensive and multifaceted data-driven trading analysis.
This indicator isn't intended for standalone trading application. Instead, it offers an alternative approach to traditional area charts, serving as a supplementary tool for orientation within broader trading strategies. Irrespective of market conditions, it can harmonize with a wider range of trading styles and instruments/trading pairs/indices like Stocks, Gold, EURUSDSPX500, GBPUSD, BTCUSD and Oil.
Inspiration and Publishing
Taking genesis from the inspirations amongst others provided by TradingView Pine Script Wizard Kodify, blackOrb Price is a multi-encompassing script meticulously forged from scratch. It aspires to furnish a comprehensive area chart approach, borne out of personal experiences and a strong dedication in supporting the trading community. We eagerly await valuable feedback to refine and further enhance this tool.
MTF - Zigzag + Tech IndicatorsMTF - Zigzag + Tech Indicators
At high level the indicator can be a useful tool while analyzing the charts. It marks swing points (Zigzag) on 3 different timeframes along with capability to view key technical indicator values at each of the swing point.
Normally Zaizag indicators are useful for identifying primary trend and retracements. Zigzags also help in identifying key support and resistance areas. Traders develop various trading strategies based on Zigzags.
Most of the published Zigzag indicators use single timeframe / chart timeframe to draw the Zigzag lines but, many traders/chart analysts would like to analyze trends on multiple timeframes. Single timeframe Zigzags makes such analysis little difficult.
This indicator is an advanced version of Zigzag which allow users to draw Zigzag lines on multiple timeframes. It allows users to input 2 additional higher timeframes and in total it draws Zigzag on 3 timeframes i.e., on chart timeframe and 2 additional higher timeframes.
Once loaded on the chart, it draws Zigzag lines and plot labels (HH, LL, HL, LH) which denotes swing points. Each of the swing point label has a tooltip attached to it, which provide few additional data point, to view the additional data points, hover the mouse over the label.
Swing label tooltip shows these additional data points:
Tag: Swing type (HH, LL, HL, LH) + Bar time (in dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm format)
Price point: Swing price point
Price change: Price change since previous swing point along with change %
Swing volume: Volume since previous swing point in million
Key technical indicator values:
RSI (close, 14)
Stochastic (close, high, low, 14)
ADX (14, 14)
SMA20
SMA50
SMA100
SMA200
Use cases:
Support resistance: Though most of the swing points of a zigzag are treated as a support or resistance. This indicator allows to add more depth to the analysis. E.g., swing points based on lowest timeframe (chart timeframe) can be treated as weak support/resistance whereas swing points based on higher timeframe can treated as strong support/resistance and prices need to hit it multiple time to cross/break the same.
Trend identification: Trend on lowest timeframe (chart timeframe) can be a immediate term trend, trend on the mid-level higher timeframe can be a short term trend and trend on the highest level timeframe can be a long term trend.
Trade identification, entry, and exit: MTF Zigzag can also be creatively used while trading. Eg. One can identify a trend on highest level timeframe and use mid-level timeframe for trade entry and lowest level timeframe can be used for Take Profit levels (TP1, TP2, ..) and Stop loss. Alternatively, Trend can be identified on highest or mid-level timeframe and trade entry/exit can be based on lowest level timeframe.
Use of information displayed in tooltip: Analysts/traders look for confirmations from other indicators while initiating trades. These additional indicator values become handy/readily available source of information without specifically navigating through different indicators/charts. These indicator values can be creatively used in many ways. Some of the examples are:
Easy comparison of values of moving averages on all 3 timeframes
Better assessment of momentum and overbought/oversold based on value of stochastic and rsi
Use of ADX to determine the strength of the trend
Trade decision based on increasing or decreasing order of moving averages
Trade decision, based order of moving averages combined with overbought/oversold and strength of the trend
Chart examples: TCS on 60m/4h/1D
ITC 4h/1D

BE - Strategy Builder ToolkitIndicator vs Toolkit:
This is definitely not an indicator, hence this doesn't do any kind of analysis nor provide meaningful outputs where you can take trading decisions out of it.
This is a Strategy Builder Toolkit which works like any other broker/3P applications, which helps traders to build their own custom/ predefined strategies, save / deploy them at their wish.
Idea Behind Developing this Toolkit: I am sure many of traders have overcome scenarios where, on break of x level he wants to initiate straddle else he wants to initiate Iron Condor. Some of them wants to deploy custom strategies only at certain time or at certian price levels.
It becomes pretty difficult to track markets when you are away from desk and if you dont adjust the strategy legs, you are incurring big drawdowns. There are many if's and buts to deploy strategies.
To overcome such challenges, i have built this toolkit.
Note: As this is just a toolkit, you should conduct your analysis to gauge the market direction outside the perview of this. Once you know the view / direction of the script. you can use this toolkit in action to
1. Deploy Strategy at (Desired levels| Desired time|Confired Levels|Confirmed Volumes)
2. Strategy can be Prebuilt / Custom Built
3.1 Set SL, Target for Directional view (Trail SL aswell)
3.2 Set Upside or Downside Target for Non Directional view (Trail SL aswell)
3.3 let the strategy play with out SL|Targets for consolidation view.
4. Adjust Legs by closing existing position and opening fresh position or place fresh adjustments
5. Book partial Profits with in the zone.
How the Toolkit is buit: Script uses text related functions to understand the custom input given in the indicator and coverts into a strategy and deployes them as a algo trading (Next Level Bot) with the additional parameter set for SL|Target|Entry levels.
Understanding the settings:
1. Strike Difference: is basically a value between each strike. eg: Banknifty : 100, Nifty & Finnifty: 50
2. 1 Lot Qty: Qty per Lot accepted by exchange|Broker. eg: BNF: 15, Nifty: 50, Finnifty: 40
3. Lot Multiplier: If you build strategy with 1 lot and if you set the Lot multiplier as 2 then strategy gets deployed with 2 lots. for eg. If i have saved strategy to buy BNF 1 ITM with 1Lot and have set lot multipier to 3 then at the time of deploying the trade it pushes as 3 lots (3 * 15Qty per lot = 45Qty) of 1 ITM strike.
4. Symbol Name: Select the Symbol Name here.
5. Current & Next Week Expiry Date: Specify the expiry Dates in the format as supported by your broker.
6. Broker Name, Exchange & Product Type: hope it is self explanatory.
IMPORTANT settings to understand:
7. Triggere Entry Post (optional): You have to specify when you want to deploy the strategy. For instance, if i want to deploy my strategy at 30 min after market open which is 9:45 am, then i have specify as 0945. Another instance where i want to close my strategy at 3 PM then you have to specify as 1500. Uncheck this option if you are not worried about the time of entry.
My personal Used Case: On the Expiry -1 Day at 0916 (9:16AM) i will buy 6 lots of 8OTM PE & CE and Sell 2 lots 7OTM, 2 lots of 6OTM and 2 lots of 5OTM and close the trade by 1100 (11AM).
8. Price Levels (Confirmed vs UnConfirmed) (Optional): Confirmed is basically price is sustained at|around the specified price level, where in UnConfirmed is basically the touch of the specified level.
for instance if i want to deploy straddle only if price is sustained at 100. then, i would specify GE with 100 in price input settings, and check thee Confirmed price box. Assuming if LTP is running at 98 and with the above settings it will only deploy the trade upon price is sustained at 100 level for 3 to 5 candles not at the touch of 100.
Uncheck this option if you are not worried about the Entry Price.
9. Confirmed Volume (Optional) (Long or Short): Basis your view|direction of the strategy. you can get additional confirmation. At the time of entry you want volume to be present towards the direction of the strategy. Uncheck this option if you are not worried about the volume or Volume doesn't exist for the chart loaded.
10. Alert Types: It consists of 3 Long & 3 Short directional (prebuilt) strategy along with Close Strategy, Close Specified Symbols Only & Design Custom Strategy Option.
10.1 : Slow Upmove - If you are having bullish view and predict that prices shall go slow and steady. This strategy can be deployed where you get the benifit of time decay as well while the delta play in favor of you. (viseversa for Slow DownMove)
10.2 : Fast Upmove - If you are having bullish view and predict that prices shall go fast. This strategy can be deployed where you get the smaller benifit of time decay as well while the delta play in favor of you. (viseversa for Fast DownMove)
10.3 : Vol Upmove (Volatality)- If you are having bullish view and predict market is tend to be volatile. This strategy can be deployed where you get the benifit of volatility as well while the delta play in favor of you. (viseversa for VolDownMove)
10.4 : Close Trade - You can use this option close the deployed strategy completely.
10.5 : Close Symbols - You can use this option close few of the symbols for the strategy deployed.
10.6 : Custom: Use this option to design you own custom strayegy with the syntax below:
Sample 1:
N|B|C2|3
N refers to Nextweek Expiry (if C is used then Current week expiry)
B refers to Buy (if S is used then Sell)
C refers to Call | CE (if P is used then PE or Put)
2 refers to 2OTM (for CE any Postitive number refers to as OTM and for PE it will be treated as ITM strikes & 0 refers to as ATM - viseversa for Negative Numbers)
3 refers to as 3 Lot
With the syntax of N|B|C2|3 - strategy will be deployed as "Buy 3 lots of 2 OTM Call of Next expiry"
Sample 2:
C|S|P-3|3|10|30
Above syntax means: SELL Current Expiry 3 Lots of 3 OTM Put Strike with 10 SL and 30 TGT
Sample 3:
C|S|C10|3|Default
Above syntax means: SELL Current Expiry 3 Lots of 10 OTM CALL Strike with 50% SL and 95% TGT
Sample 4:
C|B|C-2|3|40%|50%
Above syntax means: BUY Current Expiry 3 Lots of 2 ITM CALL Strike with 40% SL and 50% TGT
Sample 5: Long Straddle
C|B|C0|3
C|B|P0|3
Above syntax means: BUY Current Expiry 3 Lots of ATM CALL & PUT Strike
Sample 6: Iron Butterfly
C|B|C1|1
C|S|C0|1
C|S|P0|1
C|B|P-1|1
Above syntax means: Sell Current Expiry 1 Lots of ATM CALL & PUT Strike and BUY 1OTM Call & Put Strike
Sample 7: Diagonal Spread
C|S|C2|1
C|S|P-2|1
N|B|C3|1
N|B|P-3|1
Above syntax means: Sell Current Expiry 1 Lots of 2OTM CALL & PUT Strike and BUY 3OTM Call & Put Strike of Next Expiry.
To Understand how to deploy Strategy with defined Adjustments. For instance i want to deploy Iron Condor with Adjustments for BNF when the price is currently running at 45000.

BUY BANKNIFTY44700PUT(Current Expiry) 1 Lot
SELL BANKNIFTY45200CALL(Current Expiry) 1 Lot
SELL BANKNIFTY44800PUT(Current Expiry) 1 Lot
Toolkit tracks the price and holds the adjustments.
We may start to bleed on the sold leg (45200CALL) once the price crosses 45200. Hence if the price crosses 2 strike upside as specified with syntax " On:2|* " where * is a character tagged to Sold Call Leg. it closes the 45200 Call.
Similarly, " On:2|- " where - is character tagged to Brought Call Leg. it closes the 45300 Call, as soon as prices reaches 2 strike upside.
At:2|C|S|C2|1
At:2|C|B|C3|1
With the At Statements you can place the fresh adjustments legs. Above syntax refers to Once the price reaches 45200 it places below adjustment legs.
BUY BANKNIFTY45500CALL(Current Expiry) 1 Lot
SELL BANKNIFTY45400CALL(Current Expiry) 1 Lot
Note: Similarly If prices reaches downside with the On and At Sytax it places the necessary adjustment legs accordingly.
11. SL & TGT - You can specify SL, TGT or Upside & Dowside TGT during the entry conditions and Stratey shall be closed upon hitting either the SL or TGT accordingly.
12. On % Tgt & Lock % SL: This option is used for Prebuilt strategy where you can lock the Profit | Set Revised SL upon hitting specified TGT percentage.
13. Close Symbols: This option is used if you select Alert type as Close Symbols (Ref - 10.5 : Close Symbols) for specified list of symbols Alert shall be pushed to close the open positions of those symbols.

Happy to receive suggestions and feedback in order to improve the performance of the indicator better.
Volume EntropyKey Components :
📍 Natural Logarithm Function : The script starts by employing a custom Taylor Series approximation for natural logarithms. This function serves to calculate entropy with higher accuracy than conventional methods, laying the foundation for further calculations.
📍 Entropy Calculation : The core of this indicator is its entropy function. It employs the custom natural log function to compute the randomness of the trading volume over a user-defined micro-pattern length, offering insights into market stability or volatility.
📍 Micro-Pattern Length : This is the parameter that sets the stage for the level of detail in the entropy calculation. Users can adjust it to suit different time frames or market conditions, thus customizing the indicator's sensitivity to randomness in trading volume.
Session CandlesThis indicator is designed to visually represent different trading sessions on a price chart, highlighting candlestick colors to distinguish between bullish (upward movement) and bearish (downward movement) trends during various market sessions. Here's an overview of how the indicator works:
1. Session Definition: The indicator defines four distinct trading sessions:
- London Session: Typically covering the European trading hours.
- New York AM Session: Representing the morning hours of the New York trading session.
- New York PM Session: Representing the afternoon hours of the New York trading session.
- Asia Session: Encompassing the trading hours of the Asian markets.
2. Configuration Options: Users can customize the behavior of the indicator through input options. For each session, users can enable or disable the display of session-specific candles.
3. Candle Coloring: The indicator determines the color of candles based on the following criteria:
- For each session, it checks whether the current candle's closing price is higher than its opening price.
- If the closing price is higher, the candle is considered bullish, and a user-defined green color is used for the candle.
- If the closing price is lower, the candle is considered bearish, and a user-defined red color is applied.
4. Display: The indicator then applies the calculated candle colors to the respective candles of each trading session on the price chart. This visual distinction helps traders quickly identify the prevailing trend during different market sessions.
To use the indicator, traders can overlay it on their price charts in TradingView. By enabling or disabling specific trading sessions, they can focus on the trends and price movements during those specific time periods.
Please note that the actual appearance of the indicator on the chart depends on the user's chosen settings for session enablement and color preferences.
