Choppiness IndicatorE.W. Dreiss, an Australian commodity trader, developed the Choppiness Index in 1993, drawing upon chaos theory to analyze financial markets. This technical indicator helps traders determine whether a market is trending or experiencing sideways (choppy) price action.
#Hint: The Market is considered TRENDING when the index is below 38.2 The Market is considered CHOPPY when the index is above 61.8. A move above the 38.2 Level indicates a possible end to a trend, and a move below 61.8 indicates a possible breakout from a period of consolidation.
Mobius constructed this in Thinkscript V001.03.2012, and Claude 3.7 Sonnet converted it to Pinescript V002. 03.2025

SMIIOLThis indicator generates long signals.
The operation of the indicator is as follows;
First, true strength index is calculated with closing prices. We call this the "ergodic" curve.
Then the average of the ergodic (ema) is calculated to obtain the "signal" curve.
To calculate the "oscillator", the signal is subtracted from ergodic (oscillator = ergodic - signal).
The last variable to be used in the calculation is the average volume, calculated with sma.
Calculation for long signal;
- If the ergodic curve cross up the lower band and,
- If the hma slope is positive,
If all the above conditions are fullfilled, the long input signal is issued with "Buy" label.
Dual Volume Divergence LineDual Volume Divergence Line (DVD/Line)
🔹 Overview
The Dual Volume Divergence Line (DVD/Line) is a custom Pine Script™ indicator designed to identify potential trend reversals and continuations by analyzing volume and price divergences. This script is inspired by the original concept of the Dual Volume Divergence Index (DVDI) by DonovanWall and has been modified and enhanced by keremertem. Special thanks to DonovanWall for the original concept. The indicator combines volume-based calculations with price action to generate signals for bullish and bearish divergences, both normal and hidden. Below is a detailed breakdown of its components and functionality.
🔹 Key Features of the DVD/Line Indicator
1. Dual Volume Divergence Calculation:
- The indicator calculates two primary volume-based indices: the Positive Volume Index (PVI) and the Negative Volume Index (NVI).
- PVI measures the impact of volume on price when the price increases, while NVI measures the impact when the price decreases.
- These indices are used to detect divergences between volume and price, which can signal potential reversals or continuations.
2. Customizable Inputs:
- DVD Sampling Period: Adjusts the sensitivity of the indicator by controlling the lookback period for calculating the volume-weighted moving averages (VWMA) of PVI and NVI.
- Band Width: Defines the range for calculating the upper and lower bands, which act as dynamic support and resistance levels.
- Source: Allows users to select the price source (e.g., `hlc3`, `close`, etc.) for calculations.
3. Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA):
- Instead of using traditional moving averages, the script employs VWMA to smooth the PVI and NVI signals. This ensures that the indicator is more responsive to changes in volume.
4. Upper and Lower Bands:
- The upper and lower bands are calculated using the Root Mean Square (RMS) of the highest and lowest values of the DVD line over a user-defined period. These bands help identify overbought and oversold conditions.
5. Divergence Detection:
- The script identifies four types of divergences:
- Normal Bullish Divergence: Occurs when price makes a lower low, but the DVD line makes a higher low.
- Hidden Bullish Divergence: Occurs when price makes a higher low, but the DVD line makes a lower low.
- Normal Bearish Divergence: Occurs when price makes a higher high, but the DVD line makes a lower high.
- Hidden Bearish Divergence: Occurs when price makes a lower high, but the DVD line makes a higher high.
- These divergences are visually highlighted on the chart using labels.
6. Customizable Divergence Selection:
- Users can choose between two types of divergence calculations:
- DVDI: Based on the raw divergence values.
- DVD Line: Based on the smoothed DVD line.
7. Visual Enhancements:
- The DVD line is plotted with a color-coded scheme: blue when the DVD line is above its signal line (bullish) and pink when it is below (bearish).
- The upper and lower bands are displayed as step lines, making it easier to identify key levels.
🔹 How the Indicator Works
1. Volume-Based Calculations:
- The script starts by calculating the PVI and NVI based on the selected price source and volume data.
- PVI increases when the price rises, while NVI decreases when the price falls. These indices are then smoothed using VWMA to generate signals.
2. DVD Line Calculation:
- The DVD line is derived by combining the divergences of PVI and NVI. It is further smoothed using a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) and a linear regression line for trend analysis.
3. Divergence Detection:
- The script identifies pivot points in the DVD line and compares them with price action to detect divergences.
- Normal divergences indicate potential reversals, while hidden divergences suggest trend continuations.
4. Dynamic Bands:
- The upper and lower bands are calculated using RMS, which provides a more accurate representation of volatility compared to standard deviation or fixed-width bands.
5. Labeling:
- Divergences are labeled directly on the chart with clear text and color coding:
🟢 Bullish Divergence: Green label with "Bull".
🟩 Bearish Divergence: Red label with "Bear".
🔴 Hidden Bullish Divergence: Lime label with "hid.".
🟧 Hidden Bearish Divergence: Orange label with "hid.".
🔹 Unique Aspects of This Script
1. Volume-Weighted Smoothing:
- Unlike traditional divergence indicators that rely on simple moving averages, this script uses VWMA and WMA to ensure that volume plays a significant role in signal generation.
2. Dynamic Bands with RMS:
- The use of RMS for calculating bands provides a more adaptive and accurate representation of market conditions, especially in volatile markets.
3. Flexible Divergence Selection:
- Users can choose between raw divergence values (DVDI) or smoothed values (DVD Line), allowing for greater customization based on trading style.
4. Comprehensive Divergence Detection:
- The script detects both normal and hidden divergences, providing a complete picture of potential trend reversals and continuations.
5. User-Friendly Visuals:
- The color-coded DVD line and cross-style bands make it easy to interpret the indicator at a glance.
🔹 How to Use the Indicator
1. Trend Identification:
- Use the Middle Band and its color to identify the current trend. A green line suggests bullish momentum, while a red line indicates bearish momentum. Additionally, a bullish momentum may be indicated when the DVD line crosses up, and a bearish momentum may be indicated when it crosses down the Middle Band.
2. Divergence Trading:
- Look for divergences between the DVD line and price action. Normal divergences can be used for counter-trend trades, while hidden divergences can confirm trend continuations.
3. Band Breakouts:
- Monitor the upper and lower bands for potential breakout or reversal signals. A break above the upper band may indicate overbought conditions, while a break below the lower band may suggest oversold conditions.
4. Customization:
- Adjust the sampling period and band width to suit different timeframes and trading strategies. Shorter periods are more sensitive, while longer periods provide smoother signals.
🔹 Conclusion
The Dual Volume Divergence Line (DVD/Line) is a powerful and versatile indicator that combines volume analysis with price action to generate actionable trading signals. Its unique use of volume-weighted smoothing, dynamic bands, and comprehensive divergence detection sets it apart from traditional divergence indicators. Whether you're a day trader or a long-term investor, this tool can help you identify high-probability trading opportunities with greater accuracy and confidence.

BCVC - Volume & Big Candle ColorThe BCVC (Volume & Big Candle Color) indicator helps traders identify significant price movements accompanied by unusual volume activity. By dynamically coloring bars based on volume spikes and candle size, it highlights potential momentum shifts, breakouts, or reversals. This tool is ideal for traders who want to:
Spot institutional buying/selling activity.
Confirm trend strength using volume and price volatility.
Filter noise by focusing on high-impact bars.
Key Features
Volume Spike Detection:
Compares current volume to a moving average (EMA) of volume.
Highlights bars where volume exceeds the average by a user-defined multiplier.
Big Candle Detection:
Identifies bars with a range (high-low) larger than the historical average range (EMA of candle ranges).
Thresholds for "big candles" are customizable.
Color-Coded Logic:
White Bars: High volume + Big candle + Bullish (close > open).
Orange Bars: High volume + Big candle + Bearish (close < open).
Blue Bars: High volume + Regular candle + Bullish.
Maroon Bars: High volume + Regular candle + Bearish.
Input Parameters
Volume Settings:
Volume Period: EMA length for average volume calculation (default: 20).
Volume Multiplier: Threshold multiplier for volume spikes (e.g., 1.25 = 25% above average).
Candle Size Settings:
Lookback Period: EMA length for average candle range (default: 7).
Big Candle Multiplier: Threshold multiplier for large candles (e.g., 1.3 = 30% above average range).
How It Works
Volume Analysis:
The indicator calculates an EMA of volume over the specified period.
If the current bar’s volume exceeds Average Volume × Volume Multiplier, it’s flagged as a high-volume bar.
Candle Range Analysis:
The average candle range (high-low) is calculated using an EMA over the lookback period.
A "big candle" is identified when the current bar’s range exceeds Average Range × Big Candle Multiplier.
Combined Signals:
High-volume bars are colored based on whether they are bullish/bearish and whether their range exceeds the big-candle threshold.
Example: A white bar (high volume + big candle + bullish) suggests strong buying pressure with institutional participation.
Usage Scenarios
Breakout Confirmation: A white/orange bar at a support/resistance level may validate a breakout.
Reversal Signals: A maroon/orange bar after a long trend could indicate exhaustion and potential reversal.
Trend Strength: Clusters of blue/white bars during uptrends (or maroon/orange in downtrends) confirm momentum.
Benefits
Visual Clarity: Instantly spot high-impact bars without manually scanning volume or candle size.
Customizable Sensitivity: Adjust multipliers to filter noise (e.g., increase for fewer signals).
Universal Application: Works on all timeframes and instruments (stocks, forex, crypto).
Notes
Best Paired With: Trendlines, support/resistance levels, or momentum oscillators (e.g., RSI).
Avoid False Signals: Use higher multipliers (e.g., 1.5) on lower timeframes to reduce noise.
Trend Catcher SwiftEdgeTrend Catcher SwiftEdge
Overview
The Trend Catcher SwiftEdge is a simple yet effective tool designed to help traders identify potential trend directions using two Simple Moving Averages (SMAs). It plots two SMAs based on the high and low prices of the chart, visually highlights trend conditions, and provides buy/sell labels to assist with trade entries. This indicator is best used as part of a broader trading strategy and should not be relied upon as a standalone signal generator.
How It Works
Two SMAs: The indicator calculates two SMAs: one based on the lowest price (Low) and one based on the highest price (High) over a user-defined period (default: 20).
Dynamic Colors:
Green: When the price is above both SMAs (indicating a potential uptrend).
Red: When the price is below both SMAs (indicating a potential downtrend).
Purple: When the price is between the SMAs (indicating consolidation).
The SMAs and the background between them change color dynamically to reflect the current trend condition.
Buy/Sell Labels:
A "Buy" label appears when an entire candlestick (including its low) crosses above both SMAs, marking the start of a potential uptrend.
A "Sell" label appears when an entire candlestick (including its high) crosses below both SMAs, marking the start of a potential downtrend.
To reduce noise, only one label is shown per trend direction. The indicator resets when the price enters the consolidation zone (purple), allowing for a new signal when the next trend begins.
Settings
SMA Length: Adjust the period of the SMAs (default: 20). A longer period smooths the SMAs and focuses on larger trends, while a shorter period makes the indicator more sensitive to price changes.
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart.
Look for "Buy" labels to consider potential long entries during uptrends (green zone).
Look for "Sell" labels to consider potential short entries during downtrends (red zone).
Use the purple consolidation zone to prepare for potential breakouts.
Always combine this indicator with other forms of analysis (e.g., support/resistance, volume, or other indicators) to confirm signals.
Important Notes
This indicator is a tool to assist with identifying trend directions and potential entry points. It does not guarantee profits and should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy.
False signals can occur, especially in choppy or ranging markets. Consider using additional filters or confirmations to improve reliability.
Backtest the indicator on your chosen market and timeframe to understand its behavior before using it in live trading.

Adaptive Regression Channel [MissouriTim]The Adaptive Regression Channel (ARC) is a technical indicator designed to empower traders with a clear, adaptable, and precise view of market trends and price boundaries. By blending advanced statistical techniques with real-time market data, ARC delivers a comprehensive tool that dynamically adjusts to price action, volatility, volume, and momentum. Whether you’re navigating the fast-paced world of cryptocurrencies, the steady trends of stocks, or the intricate movements of FOREX pairs, ARC provides a robust framework for identifying opportunities and managing risk.
Core Components
1. Color-Coded Regression Line
ARC’s centerpiece is a linear regression line derived from a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) of closing prices. This line adapts its calculation period based on market volatility (via ATR) and is capped between a minimum of 20 bars and a maximum of 1.5 times the user-defined base length (default 100). Visually, it shifts colors to reflect trend direction: green for an upward slope (bullish) and red for a downward slope (bearish), offering an instant snapshot of market sentiment.
2. Dynamic Residual Channels
Surrounding the regression line are upper (red) and lower (green) channels, calculated using the standard deviation of residuals—the difference between actual closing prices and the regression line. This approach ensures the channels precisely track how closely prices follow the trend, rather than relying solely on overall price volatility. The channel width is dynamically adjusted by a multiplier that factors in:
Volatility: Measured through the Average True Range (ATR), widening channels during turbulent markets.
Trend Strength: Based on the regression slope, expanding channels in strong trends and contracting them in consolidation phases.
3. Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA)
Plotted in orange, the VWMA overlays a volume-weighted price trend, emphasizing movements backed by significant trading activity. This complements the regression line, providing additional confirmation of trend validity and potential breakout strength.
4. Scaled RSI Overlay
ARC features a Relative Strength Index (RSI) overlay, plotted in purple and scaled to hover closely around the regression line. This compact display reflects momentum shifts within the trend’s context, keeping RSI visible on the price chart without excessive swings. User-defined overbought (default 70) and oversold (default 30) levels offer reference points for momentum analysis."
Technical Highlights
ARC leverages a volatility-adjusted lookback period, residual-based channel construction, and multi-indicator integration to achieve high accuracy. Its parameters—such as base length, channel width, ATR period, and RSI length—are fully customizable, allowing traders to tailor it to their specific needs.
Why Choose ARC?
ARC stands out for its adaptability and precision. The residual-based channels offer tighter, more relevant support and resistance levels compared to standard volatility measures, while the dynamic adjustments ensure it performs well in both trending and ranging markets. The inclusion of VWMA and scaled RSI adds depth, merging trend, volume, and momentum into a single, cohesive overlay. For traders seeking a versatile, all-in-one indicator, ARC delivers actionable insights with minimal noise.
Best Ways to Use the Adaptive Regression Channel (ARC)
The Adaptive Regression Channel (ARC) is a flexible tool that supports a variety of trading strategies, from trend-following to breakout detection. Below are the most effective ways to use ARC, along with practical tips for maximizing its potential. Adjustments to its settings may be necessary depending on the timeframe (e.g., intraday vs. daily) and the asset being traded (e.g., stocks, FOREX, cryptocurrencies), as each market exhibits unique volatility and behavior.
1. Trend Following
• How to Use: Rely on the regression line’s color to guide your trades. A green line (upward slope) signals a bullish trend—consider entering or holding long positions. A red line (downward slope) indicates a bearish trend—look to short or exit longs.
• Best Practice: Confirm the trend with the VWMA (orange line). Price above the VWMA in a green uptrend strengthens the bullish case; price below in a red downtrend reinforces bearish momentum.
• Adjustment: For short timeframes like 15-minute crypto charts, lower the Base Regression Length (e.g., to 50) for quicker trend detection. For weekly stock charts, increase it (e.g., to 200) to capture broader movements.
2. Channel-Based Trades
• How to Use: Use the upper channel (red) as resistance and the lower channel (green) as support. Buy when the price bounces off the lower channel in an uptrend, and sell or short when it rejects the upper channel in a downtrend.
• Best Practice: Check the scaled RSI (purple line) for momentum cues. A low RSI (e.g., near 30) at the lower channel suggests a stronger buy signal; a high RSI (e.g., near 70) at the upper channel supports a sell.
• Adjustment: In volatile crypto markets, widen the Base Channel Width Coefficient (e.g., to 2.5) to reduce false signals. For stable FOREX pairs (e.g., EUR/USD), a narrower width (e.g., 1.5) may work better.
3. Breakout Detection
• How to Use: Watch for price breaking above the upper channel (bullish breakout) or below the lower channel (bearish breakout). These moves often signal strong momentum shifts.
• Best Practice: Validate breakouts with VWMA position—price above VWMA for bullish breaks, below for bearish—and ensure the regression line’s slope aligns (green for up, red for down).
• Adjustment: For fast-moving assets like crypto on 1-hour charts, shorten ATR Length (e.g., to 7) to make channels more reactive. For stocks on daily charts, keep it at 14 or higher for reliability.
4. Momentum Analysis
• How to Use: The scaled RSI overlay shows momentum relative to the regression line. Rising RSI in a green uptrend confirms bullish strength; falling RSI in a red downtrend supports bearish pressure.
• Best Practice: Look for RSI divergences—e.g., price hitting new highs at the upper channel while RSI flattens or drops could signal an impending reversal.
• Adjustment: Reduce RSI Length (e.g., to 7) for intraday trading in FOREX or crypto to catch short-term momentum shifts. Increase it (e.g., to 21) for longer-term stock trades.
5. Range Trading
• How to Use: When the regression line’s slope is near zero (flat) and channels are tight, ARC indicates a ranging market. Buy near the lower channel and sell near the upper channel, targeting the regression line as the mean price.
• Best Practice: Ensure VWMA hovers close to the regression line to confirm the range-bound state.
• Adjustment: For low-volatility stocks on daily charts, use a moderate Base Regression Length (e.g., 100) and tight Base Channel Width (e.g., 1.5). For choppy crypto markets, test shorter settings.
Optimization Strategies
• Timeframe Customization: Adjust ARC’s parameters to match your trading horizon. Short timeframes (e.g., 1-minute to 1-hour) benefit from lower Base Regression Length (20–50) and ATR Length (7–10) for agility, while longer timeframes (e.g., daily, weekly) favor higher values (100–200 and 14–21) for stability.
• Asset-Specific Tuning:
○ Stocks: Use longer lengths (e.g., 100–200) and moderate widths (e.g., 1.8) for stable equities; tweak ATR Length based on sector volatility (shorter for tech, longer for utilities).
○ FOREX: Set Base Regression Length to 50–100 and Base Channel Width to 1.5–2.0 for smoother trends; adjust RSI Length (e.g., 10–14) based on pair volatility.
○ Crypto: Opt for shorter lengths (e.g., 20–50) and wider widths (e.g., 2.0–3.0) to handle rapid price swings; use a shorter ATR Length (e.g., 7) for quick adaptation.
• Backtesting: Test ARC on historical data for your asset and timeframe to optimize settings. Evaluate how often price respects channels and whether breakouts yield profitable trades.
• Enhancements: Pair ARC with volume surges, key support/resistance levels, or candlestick patterns (e.g., doji at channel edges) for higher-probability setups.
Practical Considerations
ARC’s adaptability makes it suitable for diverse markets, but its performance hinges on proper calibration. Cryptocurrencies, with their high volatility, may require shorter, wider settings to capture rapid moves, while stocks on longer timeframes benefit from broader, smoother configurations. FOREX pairs often fall in between, depending on their inherent volatility. Experiment with the adjustable parameters to align ARC with your trading style and market conditions, ensuring it delivers the precision and reliability you need.
Deviation ChannelsIndicator Name: Deviation Channels (Dev Chan)
Why Use This Indicator?
Visualize Volatility Ranges:
The indicator plots Keltner Channels at four levels above and below an average line, letting you easily see how far price has deviated from a typical range. Each “dev” line highlights potential support or resistance during pullbacks or surges.
Color-Coded Clarity:
Each band shifts color intensity depending on whether the current price is trading above or below it, letting you spot breakouts and rejections at a glance. Meanwhile, the Fast SMA (default 10) also changes color – green if price is above, red if below – adding a quick momentum read.
Adjustable Source & Length:
Choose your input source (open, close, ohlc4, or hlc3) and set your Keltner length to suit different asset classes or timeframes. Whether you want a tighter, more reactive channel or a smoother, longer-term reading, the script adapts with minimal effort.
A Simple Trading Approach
Identify Trend with Fast SMA:
If the Fast SMA (default length 10) is green (price above it), treat that as a bullish environment. If it’s red (price below), favor bearish or neutral stances.
Wait for Price to Reach Lower/Upper Deviations:
In a bullish setup (Fast SMA green), watch for price to dip into one of the lower channels (e.g., -1 Dev or -2 Dev). Such pullbacks can become potential “buy the dip” zones if price stabilizes and resumes upward momentum.
Conversely, if the Fast SMA is red, watch for price to test the upper channels (1 Dev or 2 Dev). That might be a short opportunity or a place to close out any remaining longs before a deeper correction.
Manage Risk with Channel Levels:
Place stop-losses just beyond the next “dev” band to protect against volatility. For example, if you enter on a bounce at -1 Dev, consider placing a stop near -2 Dev or -3 Dev, depending on your risk tolerance.
Take Profits Gradually:
In an uptrend, you might scale out of positions as price moves toward higher lines (e.g., 1 Dev or 2 Dev). Conversely, if price fails to hold above the Fast SMA or repeatedly closes below a key band, it might be time to exit.
Disclaimer: No single indicator is foolproof. Always combine with sound risk management, observe multiple timeframes, and consider fundamental factors before making trading decisions. Experiment with the Keltner length and Fast SMA fastLength to find the sweet spot for your market and time horizon.
MACD with TrendIndicator Name: MACD with Trend & Multi-Timeframe Dashboard
Why Use This Indicator?
Two MACDs for Double Confirmation:
It integrates both a standard MACD (fast/slow lengths of your choice) and a Trend MACD (longer lengths). The standard MACD identifies short-term momentum shifts, while the Trend MACD helps confirm the higher-level market trend.
Multi-Timeframe 50/200 SMA Overview:
A built-in dashboard quickly shows whether the 50-period moving average is above or below the 200-period moving average across multiple timeframes (Monthly, Weekly, Daily, etc.). At a glance, you can see if higher timeframes agree with your immediate trading setup.
Clear Buy/Sell Signals:
The script plots buy arrows when the MACD histogram crosses from negative to positive, plus an additional label for the Trend MACD crossing. The same goes for sell signals if momentum flips from positive to negative. This clarity can reduce guesswork.
Customizable & Intuitive:
Easily adjust moving average types (SMA or EMA), lengths, and source inputs to suit different asset classes or personal preferences. Visual color coding helps you quickly interpret bullish vs. bearish conditions.
Recommended Trading Approach
Identify Overall Trend
Check the Trend MACD histogram and the multi-timeframe dashboard (50/200 SMAs). If you see bullish alignment on higher timeframes (e.g., Daily, Weekly) and the Trend MACD is above zero, you know the market environment is supportive for long trades.
Pinpoint Entry Using Standard MACD
Wait for the standard MACD histogram to cross above zero or for a labeled “Buy Signal.” This indicates short-term momentum turning bullish in sync with the broader trend. If the market is already trending up (confirmed by the dashboard), the probability of a successful long entry often improves.
Set a Stop-Loss & Take-Profit
While not included in the code, adding an ATR- or price-based stop-loss can protect against sudden reversals. A simple approach is risking 1–2% per trade and aiming for a 1.5–2× reward relative to that risk.
Monitor Sell Signals
If the short-term MACD crosses below zero—triggering a “Sell Signal”—and the Trend MACD also turns down (or the dashboard flips bearish), consider exiting the position or tightening stops. This alignment of short- and long-term indicators often signals a shift in momentum that could threaten your open profits.
Summary
The MACD with Trend & Multi-Timeframe Dashboard is a versatile, all-in-one toolkit. It combines the immediacy of short-term MACD signals, the validation of a longer-term trend oscillator, and the broader insight of multi-timeframe moving averages. Whether you are a swing trader looking for alignment across bigger trends or a shorter-term trader wanting clear momentum triggers, this indicator helps streamline decision-making and reduce noise.

Hull Moving Average Adaptive RSI (Ehlers)Hull Moving Average Adaptive RSI (Ehlers)
The Hull Moving Average Adaptive RSI (Ehlers) is an enhanced trend-following indicator designed to provide a smooth and responsive view of price movement while incorporating an additional momentum-based analysis using the Adaptive RSI.
Principle and Advantages of the Hull Moving Average:
- The Hull Moving Average (HMA) is known for its ability to track price action with minimal lag while maintaining a smooth curve.
- Unlike traditional moving averages, the HMA significantly reduces noise and responds faster to market trends, making it highly effective for detecting trend direction and changes.
- It achieves this by applying a weighted moving average calculation that emphasizes recent price movements while smoothing out fluctuations.
Why the Adaptive RSI Was Added:
- The core HMA line remains the foundation of the indicator, but an additional analysis using the Adaptive RSI has been integrated to provide more meaningful insights into momentum shifts.
- The Adaptive RSI is a modified version of the traditional Relative Strength Index that dynamically adjusts its sensitivity based on market volatility.
- By incorporating the Adaptive RSI, the HMA visually represents whether momentum is strengthening or weakening, offering a complementary layer of analysis.
How the Adaptive RSI Influences the Indicator:
- High Adaptive RSI (above 65): The market may be overbought, or bullish momentum could be fading. The HMA turns shades of red, signaling a possible exhaustion phase or potential reversals.
- Neutral Adaptive RSI (around 50): The market is in a balanced state, meaning neither buyers nor sellers are in clear control. The HMA takes on grayish tones to indicate this consolidation.
- Low Adaptive RSI (below 35): The market may be oversold, or bearish momentum could be weakening. The HMA shifts to shades of blue, highlighting potential recovery zones or trend slowdowns.
Why This Combination is Powerful:
- While the HMA excels in tracking trends and reducing lag, it does not provide information about momentum strength on its own.
- The Adaptive RSI bridges this gap by adding a clear visual layer that helps traders assess whether a trend is likely to continue, consolidate, or reverse.
- This makes the indicator particularly useful for spotting trend exhaustion and confirming momentum shifts in real-time.
Best Use Cases:
- Works effectively on timeframes from 1 hour (1H) to 1 day (1D), making it suitable for swing trading and position trading.
- Particularly useful for trading indices (SPY), stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies, where momentum shifts are frequent.
- Helps identify not just trend direction but also whether that trend is gaining or losing strength.
Recommended Complementary Indicators:
- Adaptive Trend Finder: Helps identify the dominant long-term trend.
- Williams Fractals Ultimate: Provides key reversal points to validate trend shifts.
- RVOL (Relative Volume): Confirms significant moves based on volume strength.
This enhanced HMA with Adaptive RSI provides a powerful, intuitive visual tool that makes trend analysis and momentum interpretation more effective and efficient.

Golden Death Cross IndicatorThis indicator uses moving average to detect both a Golden Cross and Death Cross on any timeframe but is recommended for use on the daily and 24 hour timeframes only.
We have also provided instructions on how to create alerts for these indicators below.
Happy Trading!
Moving Averages: We’ll use Simple Moving Averages (SMA). The 50-day SMA looks at the average price over the last 50 periods, and the 200-day SMA does the same for 200 periods.
Crossovers: We’ll check when the 50-day SMA crosses above (Golden Cross) or below the 200-day SMA (Death Cross).
Set Up Alerts
Now, let’s make sure you get notified when a cross happens:
Open the Alerts Menu
On the chart, click the bell icon (top right of the screen) to create an alert.
Configure the Golden Cross Alert
In the “Condition” dropdown, select “Cross Alerts” (the name of your script).
Below that, select “Golden Cross.”
Set “Once Per Bar Close” in the next dropdown (this ensures it only triggers after the period ends, avoiding false signals mid-bar).
Choose how you want to be notified (e.g., popup, email, or phone app—set this under “Notifications”).
Name the alert (e.g., “Golden Cross Alert”) and click “Create.”
Configure the Death Cross Alert
Click the bell icon again to create a second alert.
Condition: “Cross Alerts” > “Death Cross.”
Set “Once Per Bar Close” again.
Choose your notification method.
Name it (e.g., “Death Cross Alert”) and click “Create.”
Air Gap MTF with alert settingsWhat it shows:
This indicator will show a horizontal line at a price where each EMAs are on on different time frames, which will remove the effort of having to flick through different time frames or look at different chart.
The lines itself will move in real time as price moves and therefore as the EMA values changes so no need to manually adjustment the lines.
How to use it:
The price gap between each of the lines are known as "air gaps", which are essentially zones price can move with less resistance. Therefore bigger the airgap there is more likely more movement in price.
In other words, where lines are can be a resistance (or support) and can expect price stagnation or rejection.
On the chart it is clear to see lines are acting as resistances/supports.
Key settings:
The time frame are fixed to: 30min, 1hr and 4hr. This cannot be changed as of now.
EMA values for each time frame are user changeable in the settings, and up to 4 different values can be chosen for each time frame. Default is 5,12,34 and 50 for each timeframe.
Line colour, thickness and style can be user adjusted. Start point for where line will be drawn can be changed in the settings, either: start of day, user defined start or across the chart. In case of user defined scenario user can input a number that specifies a offset from current candle.
Label colour, font, alignment, text size and text itself can be user adjusted in the settings. Price can be also displayed if user chooses to do so. Position of label (offset from current candle) is user specified and can be adjusted by the user.
Both the lines and labels can be turned off (both and individually), for each lines.
Alert Settings:
Manually, user can set alerts for when price crosses a specific line.
This can be done by:
right click on any of line
choose first option (add alert on...)
On the second option under condition, use the dropdown menu to choose the desired EMA/timeframe to set alert for.
Hit "create" at bottom right of option

ALMA 20, 50, 200The ALMA (Arnaud Legoux Moving Average) crossover strategy uses two ALMA lines (fast and slow) to generate buy/sell signals, aiming to reduce lag and noise compared to traditional moving averages, and is often combined with volume filters for improved accuracy.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
What it is:
The ALMA indicator is a moving average (MA) variant designed to reduce lag and improve responsiveness while maintaining a smooth curve, using a Gaussian filter.
How it works:
ALMA calculates two moving averages, one from left to right and one from right to left, and then processes the output through a customizable formula for increased smoothness or responsiveness.
Crossover Strategy:
A common ALMA strategy involves using two ALMA lines with different lengths (fast and slow). A buy signal is generated when the fast ALMA crosses above the slow ALMA, and a sell signal when the fast ALMA crosses below the slow ALMA.
Benefits:
ALMA offers advantages like reduced lag, smoothness, and filtering capabilities, making it useful for identifying trends and potential reversals.
Potential Risks:
Like any indicator, ALMA can produce false signals, so it's crucial to combine it with other indicators and analyze price action.
Parameters:
ALMA has parameters like "Length" (number of periods), "Sigma" (filter's range, affecting responsiveness), and "Offset" (for accessing data of different candles).
Other uses:
ALMA can also be used for trend identification, dynamic support and resistance, and combined with other indicators to enhance trading strategies.

Uptrick: Acceleration ShiftsIntroduction
Uptrick: Acceleration Shifts is designed to measure and visualize price momentum shifts by focusing on acceleration —the rate of change in velocity over time. It uses various moving average techniques as a trend filter, providing traders with a clearer perspective on market direction and potential trade entries or exits.
Purpose
The main goal of this indicator is to spot strong momentum changes (accelerations) and confirm them with a chosen trend filter. It attempts to distinguish genuine market moves from noise, helping traders make more informed decisions. The script can also trigger multiple entries (smart pyramiding) within the same trend, if desired.
Overview
By measuring how quickly price velocity changes (acceleration) and comparing it against a smoothed average of itself, this script generates buy or sell signals once the acceleration surpasses a given threshold. A trend filter is added for further validation. Users can choose from multiple smoothing methods and color schemes, and they can optionally enable a small table that displays real-time acceleration values.
Originality and Uniqueness
This script offers an acceleration-based approach, backed by several different moving average choices. The blend of acceleration thresholds, a trend filter, and an optional extra-entry (pyramiding) feature provides a flexible toolkit for various trading styles. The inclusion of multiple color themes and a slope-based coloring of the trend line adds clarity and user customization.
Inputs & Features
1. Acceleration Length (length)
This input determines the number of bars used when calculating velocity. Specifically, the script computes velocity by taking the difference in closing prices over length bars, and then calculates acceleration based on how that velocity changes over an additional length. The default is 14.
2. Trend Filter Length (smoothing)
This sets the lookback period for the chosen trend filter method. The default of 50 results in a moderately smooth trend line. A higher smoothing value will create a slower-moving trend filter.
3. Acceleration Threshold (threshold)
This multiplier determines when acceleration is considered strong enough to trigger a main buy or sell signal. A default value of 2.5 means the current acceleration must exceed 2.5 times the average acceleration before signaling.
4. Smart Pyramiding Strength (pyramidingThreshold)
This lower threshold is used for additional (pyramiding) entries once the main trend has already been identified. For instance, if set to 0.5, the script looks for acceleration crossing ±0.5 times its average acceleration to add extra positions.
5. Max Pyramiding Entries (maxPyramidingEntries)
This sets a limit on how many extra positions can be opened (beyond the first main signal) in a single directional trend. The default of 3 ensures traders do not become overexposed.
6. Show Acceleration Table (showTable)
When enabled, a small table displaying the current acceleration and its average is added to the top-right corner of the chart. This table helps monitor real-time momentum changes.
7. Smart Pyramiding (enablePyramiding)
This toggle decides whether additional entries (buy or sell) will be generated once a main signal is active. If enabled, these extra signals act as filtered entries, only firing when acceleration re-crosses a smaller threshold (pyramidingThreshold). These signals have a '+' next to their signal on the label.
8. Select Color Scheme (selectedColorScheme)
Allows choosing between various pre-coded color themes, such as Default, Emerald, Sapphire, Golden Blaze, Mystic, Monochrome, Pastel, Vibrant, Earth, or Neon. Each theme applies a distinct pair of colors for bullish and bearish conditions.
9. Trend Filter (TrendFilter)
Lets the user pick one of several moving average approaches to determine the prevailing trend. The options include:
Short Term (TEMA)
EWMA
Medium Term (HMA)
Classic (SMA)
Quick Reaction (DEMA)
Each method behaves differently, balancing reactivity and smoothness.
10. Slope Lookback (slopeOffset)
Used to measure the slope of the trend filter over a set number of bars (default is 10). This slope then influences the coloring of the trend filter line, indicating bullish or bearish tilt.
Note: The script refers to this as the "Massive Slope Index," but it effectively serves as a Trend Slope Calculation, measuring how the chosen trend filter changes over a specified period.
11. Alerts for Buy/Sell and Pyramiding Signals
The script includes built-in alert conditions that can be enabled or configured. These alerts trigger whenever the script detects a main Buy or Sell signal, as well as extra (pyramiding) signals if Smart Pyramiding is active. This feature allows traders to receive immediate notifications or automate a trading response.
Calculation Methodology
1. Velocity and Acceleration
Velocity is derived by subtracting the closing price from its value length bars ago. Acceleration is the difference in velocity over an additional length period. This highlights how quickly momentum is shifting.
2. Average Acceleration
The script smooths raw acceleration with a simple moving average (SMA) using the smoothing input. Comparing current acceleration against this average provides a threshold-based signal mechanism.
3. Trend Filter
Users can pick one of five moving average types to form a trend baseline. These range from quick-reacting methods (DEMA, TEMA) to smoother options (SMA, HMA, EWMA). The script checks whether the price is above or below this filter to confirm trend direction.
4. Buy/Sell Logic
A buy occurs when acceleration surpasses avgAcceleration * threshold and price closes above the trend filter. A sell occurs under the opposite conditions. An additional overbought/oversold check (based on a longer SMA) refines these signals further.
When price is considered oversold (i.e., close is below a longer-term SMA), a bullish acceleration signal has a higher likelihood of success because it indicates that the market is attempting to reverse from a lower price region. Conversely, when price is considered overbought (close is above this longer-term SMA), a bearish acceleration signal is more likely to be valid. This helps reduce false signals by waiting until the market is extended enough that a reversal or continuation has a stronger chance of following through.
5. Smart Pyramiding
Once a main buy or sell signal is triggered, additional (filtered) entries can be taken if acceleration crosses a smaller multiplier (pyramidingThreshold). This helps traders scale into strong moves. The script enforces a cap (maxPyramidingEntries) to limit risk.
6. Visual Elements
Candles can be recolored based on the active signal. Labels appear on the chart whenever a main or pyramiding entry signal is triggered. An optional table can show real-time acceleration values.
Color Schemes
The script includes a variety of predefined color themes. For bullish conditions, it might use turquoise or green, and for bearish conditions, magenta or red—depending on which color scheme the user selects. Each scheme aims to provide clear visual differentiation between bullish and bearish market states.
Why Each Indicator Was Part of This Component
Acceleration is employed to detect swift changes in momentum, capturing shifts that may not yet appear in more traditional measures. To further adapt to different trading styles and market conditions, several moving average methods are incorporated:
• TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average) is chosen for its ability to reduce lag more effectively than a standard EMA while still reacting swiftly to price changes. Its construction layers exponential smoothing in a way that can highlight sudden momentum shifts without sacrificing too much smoothness.
• DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average) provides a faster response than a single EMA by using two layers of exponential smoothing. It is slightly less smoothed than TEMA but can alert traders to momentum changes earlier, though with a higher risk of noise in choppier markets.
• HMA (Hull Moving Average) is known for its balance of smoothness and reduced lag. Its weighted calculations help track trend direction clearly, making it useful for traders who want a smoother line that still reacts fairly quickly.
• SMA (Simple Moving Average) is the classic baseline for smoothing price data. It offers a clear, stable perspective on long-term trends, though it reacts more slowly than other methods. Its simplicity can be beneficial in lower-volatility or more stable market environments.
• EWMA (Exponentially Weighted Moving Average) provides a middle ground by emphasizing recent price data while still retaining some degree of smoothing. It typically responds faster than an SMA but is less aggressive than DEMA or TEMA.
Alongside these moving average techniques, the script employs a slope calculation (referred to as the “Massive Slope Index”) to visually indicate whether the chosen filter is sloping upward or downward. This adds an extra layer of clarity to directional analysis. The indicator also uses overbought/oversold checks, based on a longer-term SMA, to help filter out signals in overstretched markets—reducing the likelihood of false entries in conditions where the price is already extensively extended.
Additional Features
Alerts can be set up for both main signals and additional pyramiding signals, which is helpful for automated or semi-automated trading. The optional acceleration table offers quick reference values, making momentum monitoring more intuitive. Including explicit alert conditions for Buy/Sell and Pyramiding ensures traders can respond promptly to market movements or integrate these triggers into automated strategies.
Summary
This script serves as a comprehensive momentum-based trading framework, leveraging acceleration metrics and multiple moving average filters to identify potential shifts in market direction. By combining overbought/oversold checks with threshold-based triggers, it aims to reduce the noise that commonly plagues purely reactive indicators. The flexibility of Smart Pyramiding, customizable color schemes, and built-in alerts allows users to tailor their experience and respond swiftly to valid signals, potentially enhancing trading decisions across various market conditions.
Disclaimer
All trading involves significant risk, and users should apply their own judgment, risk management, and broader analysis before making investment decisions.
Volume-Weighted MA Crossover [AlphaAlgos]Volume-Weighted MA Crossover
Overview:
The Volume-Weighted MA Crossover is a sophisticated trend-following indicator designed to capture reliable trend reversals and trend continuation signals using volume and price action. By combining the power of Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA) and the simplicity of Simple Moving Averages (SMA) , this indicator provides a more robust and reliable trend filter. It ensures that trend signals are supported by strong market volume, offering a deeper insight into market strength and potential price movements.
How It Works:
The Volume-Weighted MA Crossover indicator calculates a Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) of the chosen price source (typically close ), which takes into account both the price and volume of each bar. This ensures that price movements with higher volume are weighted more heavily, providing a better reflection of actual market sentiment.
In conjunction with the VWMA, a traditional Simple Moving Average (SMA) is used to filter out noise and smooth price data, providing a more stable trend direction. The crossover between the VWMA and SMA serves as the primary trading signal:
Long Signal (Bullish Crossover) : The VWMA crosses above the SMA, indicating that a strong bullish trend is likely underway, supported by increased volume and price action.
Short Signal (Bearish Crossover) : The VWMA crosses below the SMA, signaling that a bearish trend is emerging, backed by decreasing volume and price reversal.
The Volume-Weighted MA Crossover can be used as a standalone indicator or in conjunction with other tools to enhance your trading strategy, offering both trend-following and volume confirmation.
Key Features:
Volume Sensitivity : The VWMA adjusts the moving average based on volume, providing a more accurate representation of price action during high-volume periods. This makes the indicator more sensitive to market dynamics, ensuring that price movements during significant volume spikes are prioritized.
Trend Confirmation : The crossover of the VWMA and SMA offers clear and actionable signals, helping traders identify trend reversals early and with more confidence.
Clean Signal Presentation : With color-coded signal markers , this indicator makes it easy to spot actionable entry points.
Customizable Settings : Tailor the VWMA and SMA periods, volume multiplier, and source price according to your preferred market conditions and timeframes, allowing the indicator to fit your trading style.
How to Use It:
Trend Direction : Look for crossovers between the VWMA and SMA to identify potential trend changes:
Volume Confirmation : The volume-weighted aspect of this indicator ensures that trends are confirmed by volume. A bullish trend with a VWMA crossing above the SMA suggests that the upward movement is supported by strong market sentiment (high volume). Conversely, a bearish trend with a VWMA crossing below the SMA indicates a reversal is supported by volume reduction.
Trend Continuation & Reversal : This indicator works particularly well during strong trending markets. However, it can also identify potential reversals, particularly during periods of high volume and rapid price changes.
Best Timeframe to Use:
This indicator is adaptable to multiple timeframes and can be used across various market types. However, it tends to work most effectively on medium to long-term charts (such as 1-hour, 4-hour, and daily charts) where trends have the potential to develop more clearly and with more volume participation.
Ideal for:
Trend-following traders looking for reliable signals that are confirmed by both price action and volume.
Swing traders who want to enter trades at the beginning of a new trend or after a confirmed trend reversal.
Day traders seeking clear and easy-to-read signals on intra-day charts, helping to pinpoint optimal entry and exit points during volatile market conditions.
Conclusion:
The Volume-Weighted MA Crossover is an essential tool for any trader looking to improve their trend-following strategy.

MFI Nexus Pro [trade_lexx]📈 MFI Nexus Pro is your reliable trading assistant!
📊 What is MFI Nexus Pro ?
MFI Nexus Pro is a trading indicator that analyzes cash flows in the market. It shows where money is moving — into or out of an asset, and based on this, generates buy or sell signals.
💡 The main components of the indicator
📊 The MFI Cash Flow Index (MFI)
shows the strength of cash flow into an asset. Values above 70 indicate overbought (an early sale is possible), and values below 30 indicate oversold (an early purchase is possible).
📈 Moving Averages (MA)
The indicator uses 10 different types of moving averages to smooth the MFI line.:
- SMA: Simple moving average
- EMA: Exponential moving average
- WMA: Weighted moving average
And other more complex types (HMA, KAMA, VWMA, ALMA, TEMA, ZLEMA, DEMA)
The choice of the type of moving average affects the speed of the indicator's response to market changes.
🎯 Bollinger Bands (BB)
Bands around the moving average that widen and narrow depending on volatility. They help determine when the MFI is out of the normal range.
🔄 Divergences
Divergences show discrepancies between price and MFI:
- Bullish divergence: the price is falling and the MFI is rising — an upward reversal is possible
- Bearish divergence: the price is rising and the MFI is falling — a downward reversal is possible
🔍 Indicator signals
1️⃣ Moving average signals (MA)
Buy signal
- What happens: MFI crosses its moving average from bottom to top
- What does it look like: the green triangle labeled "MA" under the chart
- What does it mean: money begins to actively flow into the asset, price growth is possible
Sell signal
- What happens: the MFI crosses the moving average from top to bottom
- What does it look like: a red triangle with the label "MA" above the chart
- What does it mean: money starts to leave the asset, the price may fall
2️⃣ Bollinger Band Signals (BB)
Buy signal
- What's happening: The MFI crosses the lower Bollinger band from bottom to top
- What it looks like: the green triangle marked "BB"
- What it means: The MFI was too low and is now starting to recover
Sell Signal
- What's going on: MFI crosses the upper Bollinger band from top to bottom
- What it looks like: a red triangle marked "BB"
- What it means: The MFI was too high and is now starting to decline
3️⃣ Divergence Signals (Div)
Buy Signal (Bullish Divergence)
- What's going on: the price is falling more than the MFI
- What it looks like: a green triangle marked "Div"
- What it means: despite the fall in price, money is already starting to return to the asset
Sell signal (bearish divergence)
- What is happening: the price is rising more strongly than the MFI
- What does it look like: the red triangle with the label "Div"
- What does it mean: despite the price increase, money is already starting to leave the asset
🛠️ Filters to filter out false signals
1️⃣ Minimum distance between the signals
- What it does: sets the minimum number of candles between signals
- Why it is needed: prevents signals from being too frequent during strong market fluctuations
- How to set it up: Set the number from 0 and above (default: 5)
2️⃣ "Waiting for the opposite signal" mode
- What it does: waits for a signal in the opposite direction before generating a new signal
- Why you need it: it helps you not to miss important trend reversals
- How to set up: just turn the function on or off
3️⃣ Filter by MFI levels
- What it does: generates signals only when the MFI is in the specified ranges
- Why it is needed: it helps to catch the moments when the market is oversold or overbought
- How to set up:
- For buy signals: set a range for oversold (e.g. 1-30)
- For sell signals: set a range for overbought (e.g. 70-100)
4️⃣ The RSI filter
- What it does: additionally checks the RSI values to confirm the signals
- Why it is needed: adds additional confirmation from another popular indicator
- How to set up: Similar to the MFI filter, set ranges for buying and selling
🔄 Signal combination modes
1️⃣ Normal mode ("None")
- How it works: all signals (MA, BB, Div) work independently of each other
- When to use it: for general market analysis or when learning how to work with the indicator
2️⃣ "And" mode ("MA and BB and Div")
- How it works: the alarm appears only when several conditions are triggered simultaneously
- Combination options:
- MA+BB: signals from the moving average and Bollinger bands
- MA+Div: signals from the moving average and divergence
- BB+Div: signals from the Bollinger bands and divergence
- MA+BB+Div: all three signals simultaneously
- When to use: for more reliable but rare signals
3️⃣ "OR" mode ("MA or BB or Div")
- How it works: the alarm appears when any of the conditions are triggered
- When to use: for frequent signals when you don't want to miss any opportunity.
🔌 Connecting to trading strategies
The indicator can be connected to your trading strategies using 5 different channels.:
1. Channel for MA signals: connects only signals from moving averages
2. BB signal channel: connects only the signals from the Bollinger bands
3. Channel for divergence signals: connects only divergence signals
4. Channel for "And" mode: connects only combined signals
5. Channel for "OR" mode: connects signals from any source
🔔 Setting up alerts
The indicator can send alerts when alarms appear.:

- Alerts for BB: when the MFI crosses the Bollinger bands
- Divergence alerts: when a divergence is detected
- Combined alerts: for "AND" and "OR" modes
🎭 What does the indicator look like on the chart ?
