Money Flow Index Crossover IndicatorThe "Money Flow Index Crossover Indicator" is a specialized technical analysis tool designed to assist traders by providing a clear visualization of potential buy and sell signals based on the Money Flow Index (MFI) and its smoothed moving average (SMA). This indicator delineates overbought and oversold zones, offering valuable insights into market dynamics. It operates as an oscillator on a separate pane, helping traders identify bullish and bearish market conditions with greater precision. By incorporating k-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) machine learning techniques, this indicator enhances the reliability and accuracy of the signals provided.
Originality and Usefulness:
This script is not just a simple mashup of existing indicators but integrates multiple components to create a unique and comprehensive analysis tool. The combined information from the MFI, its smoothed moving average, and the KNN machine learning techniques influence the form and accuracy of the Money Flow Index Average line and the Smoothed Money Flow Index line giving a visually helpful representation of overbought and oversold conditions. These lines are displayed in an oscillator style crossover, allowing users to visualize potential buy and sell zones for setting up potential signals. The user can adjust various settings of these tools behind the code to fine-tune the behavior and sensitivity of these lines. This integration provides a more robust and insightful trading tool that can adapt to different market conditions and trading styles.

Bitcoin Power Law Bands (BTC Power Law) Indicator█ OVERVIEW
The 'Bitcoin Power Law Bands' indicator is a set of three US dollar price trendlines and two price bands for bitcoin , indicating overall long-term trend, support and resistance levels as well as oversold and overbought conditions. The magnitude and growth of the middle (Center) line is determined by double logarithmic (log-log) regression on the entire USD price history of bitcoin . The upper (Resistance) and lower (Support) lines follow the same trajectory but multiplied by respective (fixed) factors. These two lines indicate levels where the price of bitcoin is expected to meet strong long-term resistance or receive strong long-term support. The two bands between the three lines are price levels where bitcoin may be considered overbought or oversold.
All parameters and visuals may be customized by the user as needed.
█ CONCEPTS
Long-term models
Long-term price models have many challenges, the most significant of which is getting the growth curve right overall. No one can predict how a certain market, asset class, or financial instrument will unfold over several decades. In the case of bitcoin , price history is very limited and extremely volatile, and this further complicates the situation. Fortunately for us, a few smart people already had some bright ideas that seem to have stood the test of time.
Power law
The so-called power law is the only long-term bitcoin price model that has a chance of survival for the years ahead. The idea behind the power law is very simple: over time, the rapid (exponential) initial growth cannot possibly be sustained (see The seduction of the exponential curve for a fun take on this). Year-on-year returns, therefore, must decrease over time, which leads us to the concept of diminishing returns and the power law. In this context, the power law translates to linear growth on a chart with both its axes scaled logarithmically. This is called the log-log chart (as opposed to the semilog chart you see above, on which only one of the axes - price - is logarithmic).
Log-log regression
When both price and time are scaled logarithmically, the power law leads to a linear relationship between them. This in turn allows us to apply linear regression techniques, which will find the best-fitting straight line to the data points in question. The result of performing this log-log regression (i.e. linear regression on a log-log scaled dataset) is two parameters: slope (m) and intercept (b). These parameters fully describe the relationship between price and time as follows: log(P) = m * log(T) + b, where P is price and T is time. Price is measured in US dollars , and Time is counted as the number of days elapsed since bitcoin 's genesis block.
DPC model
The final piece of our puzzle is the Dynamic Power Cycle (DPC) price model of bitcoin . DPC is a long-term cyclic model that uses the power law as its foundation, to which a periodic component stemming from the block subsidy halving cycle is applied dynamically. The regression parameters of this model are re-calculated daily to ensure longevity. For the 'Bitcoin Power Law Bands' indicator, the slope and intercept parameters were calculated on publication date (March 6, 2022). The slope of the Resistance Line is the same as that of the Center Line; its intercept was determined by fitting the line onto the Nov 2021 cycle peak. The slope of the Support Line is the same as that of the Center Line; its intercept was determined by fitting the line onto the Dec 2018 trough of the previous cycle. Please see the Limitations section below on the implications of a static model.
█ FEATURES
Inputs
• Parameters
• Center Intercept (b) and Slope (m): These log-log regression parameters control the behavior of the grey line in the middle
• Resistance Intercept (b) and Slope (m): These log-log regression parameters control the behavior of the red line at the top
• Support Intercept (b) and Slope (m): These log-log regression parameters control the behavior of the green line at the bottom
• Controls
• Plot Line Fill: N/A
• Plot Opportunity Label: Controls the display of current price level relative to the Center, Resistance and Support Lines
Style
• Visuals
• Center: Control, color, opacity, thickness, price line control and line style of the Center Line
• Resistance: Control, color, opacity, thickness, price line control and line style of the Resistance Line
• Support: Control, color, opacity, thickness, price line control and line style of the Support Line
• Plots Background: Control, color and opacity of the Upper Band
• Plots Background: Control, color and opacity of the Lower Band
• Labels: N/A
• Output
• Labels on price scale: Controls the display of current Center, Resistance and Support Line values on the price scale
• Values in status line: Controls the display of current Center, Resistance and Support Line values in the indicator's status line
█ HOW TO USE
The indicator includes three price lines:
• The grey Center Line in the middle shows the overall long-term bitcoin USD price trend
• The red Resistance Line at the top is an indication of where the bitcoin USD price is expected to meet strong long-term resistance
• The green Support Line at the bottom is an indication of where the bitcoin USD price is expected to receive strong long-term support
These lines envelope two price bands:
• The red Upper Band between the Center and Resistance Lines is an area where bitcoin is considered overbought (i.e. too expensive)
• The green Lower Band between the Support and Center Lines is an area where bitcoin is considered oversold (i.e. too cheap)
The power law model assumes that the price of bitcoin will fluctuate around the Center Line, by meeting resistance at the Resistance Line and finding support at the Support Line. When the current price is well below the Center Line (i.e. well into the green Lower Band), bitcoin is considered too cheap (oversold). When the current price is well above the Center Line (i.e. well into the red Upper Band), bitcoin is considered too expensive (overbought). This idea alone is not sufficient for profitable trading, but, when combined with other factors, it could guide the user's decision-making process in the right direction.
█ LIMITATIONS
The indicator is based on a static model, and for this reason it will gradually lose its usefulness. The Center Line is the most durable of the three lines since the long-term growth trend of bitcoin seems to deviate little from the power law. However, how far price extends above and below this line will change with every halving cycle (as can be seen for past cycles). Periodic updates will be needed to keep the indicator relevant. The user is invited to adjust the slope and intercept parameters manually between two updates of the indicator.
█ RAMBLINGS
The 'Bitcoin Power Law Bands' indicator is a useful tool for users wishing to place bitcoin in a macro context. As described above, the price level relative to the three lines is a rough indication of whether bitcoin is over- or undervalued. Users wishing to gain more insight into bitcoin price trends may follow the author's periodic updates of the DPC model (contact information below).

--------
■ SHORT DESCRIPTION
RSI PRECISION is an oscillator designed to enhance RSI with price volatility and make it much more accurate on longer time frames. The oscillator aims to identify overbought/oversold market levels, and it is ideal for analyzing volatile markets such as the cryptocurrency market.
RSI PRECISION is extensively tested and optimized to work properly with any financial-traded asset. However, there is the option to customize settings, in order to match any out-of-the-ordinary market conditions.
■ RSI PRECISION MISSION
To enhance RSI and make it more accurate on longer time frames, and especially during market tops/bottoms.
■ RSI PRECISION OBJECTIVES
The RSI PRECISION formula combines RSI readings with the periodic measurement of market volatility. The main objectives are:
(1) identify overbought/oversold market levels in a simple and user-friendly manner
(2) make precise calculations near market tops and bottoms, where price volatility is always booming
(3) make precise calculations on longer time frames (monthly, weekly) where RSI readings are hardly readable
(4) allowing traders to experiment by offering a plethora of different settings
■ RSI PRECISION CALCULATIONS
The RSI PRECISION consists of 3 components:
(a) Relative Strength Index readings
(b) Price Volatility measurement (on a periodic base and according to the selected time frame)
(c) RSI Volatility measurement (optional)
■ BASIC SETTINGS
There are plenty of parameters. Negative values are allowed in order to enhance user experimentation:
--RSI PERIODS:
The RSI is most typically used on a 14-period timeframe. However, you can perfectly use RSI PRECISION on a 21-period timeframe. By default, it is 14.
--RSI FACTOR (%)
You can adjust the weight of RSI readings in the formula. By default, it is 100%.
--PERIODIC PRICE VOLATILITY (%)
You can adjust the weight of Periodic Price Volatility in the formula. If you enter the value=0, then the formula becomes the classic RSI. By default, it is 100%.
--ADD PERIODIC RSI VOLATILITY (%)
This is an extra measurement of volatility. This time the focus is exclusively on periodic RSI volatility, not on price volatility. By default, it is 0%.
--CROSSOVER/CROSSUNDER LEVELS
You can create visual signals on any significant RSI PRECISION crossover/crossunder.
--BASE LEVEL
The base level is the level of RSI PRECISION equilibrium. Below the level of equilibrium, RSI PRECISION readings are colored in red. By default, it is 50.
Happy trading!

🥢Crypto-Sticks: Ehler's Universal Oscillator by Cryptorthyhms🥢Crypto-Sticks™: Ehler's Ultimate Oscillator
A new series of indicators brought to you by Cryptorthyhms...giving you an alternate look at your trusted favorites! Follow me, there are still 2 dozen Crypto-Sticks indicators planned - all will be released in public library.
🚀Indicator Specific Info
New Crypto-Sticks option is an EMA of the average signal line output. Eventually I will go back and update the previous indicators with this feature as well!
Heiken Ashi candles (default) adds some more clear trend changing points. HA example here:
Volume weighting the HA candles adds a different dimension to the indicator which I have to explore more fully. VW does work somewhat on this indicator, skewing output but also adding (too much in my opinion) noise. An example of VW+HA:
💭Please leave me any ideas or feedback you have!
🚫If you use volume weighting you should be on heiken candles.
🚀Crypto-Sticks General Info
🚧This series isnt polished 100%, and I have some more options I will add in the future. But for now, I want to just release them, as I am not sure when I will have the time to put more work into them (many other big projects I am working on).
📊Its basically reinterpretations of all your favorite indicators. I calculate the values a little bit differently than normal, but the end result is creating a candlestick chart (for the indicator!). Then I added the option to plot them as Heiken Ashi candles to smooth out noise and make signaling easier. I recommend using the indicator on this setting.
🔊Lastly I implemented a Volume Weighting system for them all which simply integrates volume into the formulas for these indicators. For the most part this feature is experimental and doesn't provide huge utility (yet - I have other ways I want to try it as well - just no time). Though on some of the indicators it already shows great promise.
👍Enjoying this indicator or find it useful? Please give me a like and follow! There are many more indicators to be released in this series, not to mention I post crypto analysis and other free indicators regularly.
