Volume Disharmony IndicatorThis indicator is designed to detect imbalanced volume compared to the open/close of the corresponding candle body. The idea is that institutions often trade in higher volume within a smaller price range. Identifying these can give an indication if there is a rally or selloff happening. The code looks at the median of all the prior candles from the point of the last trigger and compares them to the range in body of the candles in order to dynamically find a baseline, by which imbalances can be more accurately detected throughout changing market conditions.

Trade Manager 2Hi Traders,
this manager will make it easier for you to enter lots into your trading platform. Just go to the indicator settings, set your trading account amount, RRR, % risk and then give ok. If you then know where you want to put the stop loss then reopen, enter the value and hit ok again. The chart will show you exactly the stop loss and take profit as you wanted. The stop loss will always stay where you enter it and the take profit will move with the lot size as the price goes further or closer to the stop loss.
This should help when entering the number of lots, TP, SL into the platform.
Weekly High/Low Day BreakdownThe "Weekly High/Low Day Breakdown" is a tool designed to help identify patterns in market behaviour by analysing the days of the week when weekly highs and lows occur. This indicator calculates the frequency and percentage of weekly highs and lows for each day from Monday to Sunday within the visible range of your chart.
Features:
Weekly Analysis: Calculates weekly highs and lows based on daily open high and low prices from Monday to Sunday.
Day-Specific Breakdown: Tracks which day of the week each weekly high and low occurred.
Visible Range Focus: Only considers data within the current visible range of your chart for precise analysis.
Interactive Table Display: Presents the results in an easy-to-read table directly on your chart.
How It Works:
Data Collection: Fetches daily high, low, day of the week, and time data regardless of your chart's timeframe. Uses these daily figures to determine the weekly high and low for each week.
Weekly Tracking: Monitors the day of the week when the weekly high and low prices occur. Resets tracking at the end of each week (Sunday).
Visible Range Analysis: Only includes weeks that fall entirely within the visible time range of your chart. Ensures that the analysis is relevant to the period you are focusing on.
Percentage Calculation: Counts the occurrences of weekly highs and lows for each day. Calculates the percentage based on the total number of weeks in the visible range.
Result Display: Generates a table with days of the week as columns and "Weekly High" and "Weekly Low" as rows. Displays the percentage values, indicating how often highs and lows occur on each day.
How to Use:
Add the Indicator: Apply the "Weekly High/Low Day Breakdown" indicator to your TradingView chart.
Adjust Visible Range: Zoom in or out to set the desired visible time range for your analysis.
Interpret the Table:
Columns: Represent days from Monday to Sunday.
"Weekly High" Row: Shows the percentage of times the weekly high occurred on each day. "Weekly Low" Row: Shows the percentage of times the weekly low occurred on each day.
Colors: Blue text indicates high percentages, red text indicates low percentages.
Example Interpretation:
If the table shows a 30% value under "Tuesday" for "Weekly High," it means that in 30% of the weeks within the visible range, the highest price of the week occurred on a Tuesday.
Similarly, a 40% value under "Friday" for "Weekly Low" indicates that 40% of the weekly lows happened on a Friday.
Up/Down Volume with Normal DistributionThis indicator analyzes the relationship between price movements and trading volume by distinguishing between "up" and "down" volume. Up volume refers to trading volume occurring during price increases, while down volume refers to trading volume during price decreases. The indicator calculates the mean and standard deviation for both up and down volume over a specified length. This statistical approach enables traders to visualize volume deviations from the average, highlighting potential market anomalies that could signal trading opportunities.
Relationship Between Price and Volume
Volume is a critical metric in technical analysis, often considered a leading indicator of price movements. According to studies in financial economics, significant price changes accompanied by high volume tend to indicate strong market conviction (Wyart et al., 2008). Conversely, price changes on low volume may suggest a lack of interest or conviction, making those moves less reliable.
The relationship between price and volume can be summarized as follows:
Confirmation of Trends: High volume accompanying a price increase often confirms an upward trend. Similarly, high volume during price declines indicates bearish sentiment.
Reversals and Exhaustion: Decreases in volume during price increases may suggest a potential reversal or exhaustion of buying pressure, while increased volume during declines can indicate capitulation.
Breakouts: Price movements that break through significant resistance or support levels accompanied by high volume are typically more significant and suggest stronger follow-through in the new direction.
Developing a Trading Strategy
Traders can leverage the insights gained from this relationship to formulate a trading strategy based on volume analysis:
Entry Signals: Traders can enter long positions when the up volume significantly exceeds the mean by a predefined number of standard deviations. This situation indicates strong buying interest. Conversely, short positions can be initiated when down volume exceeds the mean by a specified standard deviation.
Exit Signals: Exiting positions can be based on changes in volume patterns. If the volume starts to decrease significantly after a price increase, this may signal a potential reversal or the need to lock in profits.
Risk Management: Integrating volume analysis with other technical indicators, such as moving averages or RSI, can provide a more comprehensive risk management framework, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the strategy.
In conclusion, understanding the relationship between price and volume, alongside employing statistical measures like the mean and standard deviation, enables traders to create more robust trading strategies that capitalize on market movements.

Black Moving AveragesGENERAL OVERVIEW
The moving average (MA) indicator is a foundational yet versatile tool in technical analysis, used by traders and investors to smooth out price data over a specific time frame. This helps to identify the direction of a trend by filtering out short-term fluctuations or "noise" in the price action. By observing the moving average line, traders can gain insights into potential support and resistance levels, trend strength, and possible trend reversals. Moving averages are especially useful in trending markets, where they can enhance the timing of entries and exits.
The Black Moving Averages indicator is an enhanced Moving Average indicator with unique features in one indicator, features like multi-timeframe, multi-types/length, custom labelling and moving average compact PANEL with multi-symbol support.
📌HOW DOES IT WORK
A moving average is a constantly updated average price calculated by adding up the closing prices of a security over a set period and dividing by the total number of periods.
Uptrend: If the moving average line is sloping upwards and the price is above the moving average, this typically indicates an uptrend.
Downtrend: If the moving average slopes downward with price action mostly below it, a downtrend is likely in effect.
Flat/Sideways Trend: When the moving average is flat, it suggests a range-bound or consolidating market with no clear trend.
Common Moving Average Periods:
The choice of period for a moving average can vary significantly depending on the trader’s strategy:
Short-Term Traders: Often use periods such as 5, 10, or 20 (intraday or daily) to capture quick price movements.
Medium-Term Traders: Typically use 50-period MAs, which can help spot trend changes within a few weeks to a few months.
Long-Term Traders/Investors: Favor 100, 200, or even 250-period MAs to analyze the overarching trend in daily or weekly charts.
📌HOW TO USE IT
When an asset's price crosses above its moving average, it can be a signal to buy, while crossing below can be a signal to sell.
Moving Average Crossovers: When a short-term moving average crosses above a long-term moving average, it generates a “Golden Cross,” indicating a bullish trend. Conversely, when a short-term MA crosses below a long-term MA, this creates a “Death Cross,” signalling a potential bearish trend.
Moving Average Envelopes and Bands: Some traders use moving averages to create envelopes or bands (e.g., Bollinger Bands), which add upper and lower bands around the moving average. These can help to assess the volatility and gauge potential price reversals.
Dynamic Support and Resistance: Longer-term MAs, such as the 200-day SMA, often act as dynamic support or resistance. If the price bounces off this MA several times, it reinforces the indicator’s significance.
Trend Confirmation and Continuation: Traders can confirm trends by observing if the price consistently stays above or below the moving average. This can be a signal to maintain an existing position.
Crossover Signals for Entries and Exits: A crossover strategy, where a shorter MA crosses above or below a longer MA, can serve as a reliable entry or exit point. This is particularly popular for catching early trend changes.
Combining with Other Indicators: Moving averages often yield better results when used alongside other indicators, such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for confirming overbought or oversold conditions, or the MACD for gauging momentum.
Limitations of Moving Averages
Lagging Nature: Moving averages rely on historical data, which makes them inherently lagging indicators, meaning they tend to react after a trend is already underway.
False Signals: In range-bound or choppy markets, moving averages can produce false signals, leading to potentially unprofitable trades.
When to be cautious:
When an asset's price is driven by strong momentum, it can remain over-extended for a long time. In this case, slight pauses may be mistaken for reversals.
By refining your understanding of moving averages and using them within the broader context of technical analysis, you can leverage their simplicity and effectiveness to better time entries, and exits, and spot potential reversals in various types of market conditions.

Wave Hunter [BRTLab]🔍 Overview
BRTLab - Wave Hunter is an advanced trading indicator that combines custom Average True Range (ATR) levels and a custom Exponential Moving Average (EMA) trend filter to pinpoint trending movements and reversal points with high accuracy. Designed for traders in volatile markets, particularly cryptocurrencies, where precise signaling is crucial, Wave Hunter dynamically adjusts its entry and exit signals to align with changing market conditions, filtering out noise and focusing on significant trends.
The indicator features customizable parameters, such as Hunter Strength and Wave Strength, both of which respond dynamically to price volatility. Hunter Strength, based on an adaptive ATR calculation, adjusts to volatility, helping traders recognize critical market shifts, while Wave Strength leverages a custom EMA that adapts to recent price movements for enhanced trend detection. This dual adaptability helps traders capture high-probability trades and align with broader market trends, reducing the risk of false entries.
Wave Hunter stands out from other indicators due to the seamless interaction between its components. The tool adjusts dynamically according to current market behavior, offering a precise method for identifying trends and momentum shifts. Customizable settings further enhance flexibility and accuracy, enabling traders to fine-tune the indicator to suit individual trading strategies.
🔑 Key Features and Parameters
Hunter Strength (Custom ATR): This parameter is based on an adaptive ATR calculation that directly responds to price volatility, dynamically adjusting ATR levels to capture critical market movements.
Increased Volatility: When volatility rises, Hunter Strength becomes more responsive, adjusting ATR levels closer to current prices. This responsiveness helps traders identify emerging, high-momentum moves, enabling prompt positioning in fast-changing conditions.
Decreased Volatility: During low-volatility periods, Hunter Strength smooths out ATR levels, reducing sensitivity to minor price changes and allowing traders to focus on more substantial, sustained trends.
Wave Strength (Custom EMA): This parameter is built upon a custom EMA calculation that enhances trend detection by adjusting its smoothing factor (alpha) based on volatility. By comparing recent price changes with average volatility, it adapts its responsiveness:
Increased Volatility: In periods of high volatility, the EMA’s adjusted alpha increases, making it more reactive to recent price trends. This responsiveness helps traders capture emerging trends promptly.
Decreased Volatility: When volatility is lower, the adjusted alpha reduces, smoothing the EMA to filter out minor fluctuations. This helps align the EMA with broader, sustained trends and reduces the occurrence of false signals.
The adaptability of both Custom ATR and Custom EMA components ensures that Wave Hunter aligns closely with current market conditions, providing a nuanced, high-precision approach to trend and reversal detection.
Candle Color Indication: Green for uptrends and red for downtrends, offering clear visual confirmation of trend directions and critical levels.
These features make Wave Hunter an adaptable tool, allowing traders to minimize noise and focus on key market movements.
⚙️ Signals and Logic
Wave Hunter generates Buy/Sell signals by integrating adaptive ATR and custom EMA filtering:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the price crosses the Custom ATR level upwards, confirmed by the bullish custom EMA.
Sell Signal: Occurs when the price crosses the Custom ATR level downwards, confirmed by the bearish custom EMA.
This multi-tiered confirmation system enables traders to act on high-probability signals, reducing risk and optimizing entry and exit points.
🌟 Why It's Unique
ATR and Custom EMA Integration: The combination of Custom ATR and Custom EMA components creates a robust framework for detecting market trends. ATR captures significant market movements, while the Custom EMA provides trend confirmation, ensuring signals are triggered only when both align. This reduces the likelihood of responding to minor fluctuations and false signals.
Customizable Sensitivity: Hunter Strength and Wave Strength parameters give traders control over the indicator’s responsiveness. Hunter Strength dictates Custom ATR reactivity to price movements, while Wave Strength adjusts the custom EMA for trend confirmation. This adaptability ensures effectiveness across different market scenarios, enhancing usability for both short-term and long-term strategies.
🔶 Usage
For Example trading with Wave Hunter can be approached in two primary ways:
Signal-Based Trading: Enter trades based on buy and sell signals triggered by price crossing adaptive ATR levels.
Support and Resistance Trading: Use trend lines as support and resistance levels to enter trades as price approaches these lines, provided the trend suggests continuation. Traders should remember that the longer a trend persists, the higher the reversal risk as the price nears trend levels.
✅ Conclusion
BRTLab - Wave Hunter is a powerful and flexible indicator for identifying significant trends across various market conditions. By combining custom ATR levels and custom EMA filtering, it provides precise signals for entry and exit, making it suitable for diverse trading strategies—from short-term trades to swing positions. This comprehensive approach supports traders in making informed, data-driven decisions.

Rolling ATR Bands | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the Rolling ATR Bands indicator! This indicator overlays adaptive bands around the price, using the Average True Range (ATR) to define dynamic support and resistance levels. The Rolling ATR Bands are color-coded to visually indicate potential trend strength, shifting between bearish, neutral, and bullish colors. This tool can help traders interpret price volatility, as well as identify probable trend changes, continuations, or reversals. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Features of the new Rolling ATR Bands:
ATR Bands With Customizable ATR Length & Multiplier
Smooth Trend Strength With Adjustable Smoothing Options
Color-coded bands Representing Bearish, Neutral, or Bullish Trends
Alerts for Retests & Breaks
Customizable Visuals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK?
The Rolling ATR Bands indicator calculates the ATR based on the specified length and multiplier to form upper and lower bands around the price. These bands adapt with market volatility, widening during high volatility and contracting during lower volatility periods.
In addition, the indicator calculates a "trend strength" score by combining an interpolated RSI, Supertrend, and EMA crossover. This score is smoothed with a customizable length, and a color gradient is applied to visually denote the strength of bearish, neutral, or bullish conditions.
Here's how to interpret the bands:
Upper Band: Acts as dynamic resistance; when price approaches or touches it, this often suggests potential overbought conditions.
Lower Band: Acts as dynamic support; touching or nearing this band might indicate potential oversold conditions.
Color Shifts: Color changes indicate shifts in trend direction. For example, a green color suggests a bullish trend, while red hints at bearish tendencies.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
What sets the Rolling ATR Bands apart is the combined use of interpolated RSI, Supertrend, and EMA cross values, creating a weighted trend strength score. This integration allows for nuanced, color-coded visual cues that respond quickly to trend changes without excessive noise, offering traders an intuitive view of both trend direction and potential momentum.

FibExtender [tradeviZion]FibExtender : A Guide to Identifying Resistance with Fibonacci Levels
Introduction
Fibonacci levels are essential tools in technical analysis, helping traders identify potential resistance and support zones in trending markets. FibExtender is designed to make this analysis accessible to traders at all levels, especially beginners, by automating the process of plotting Fibonacci extensions. With FibExtender, you can visualize potential resistance levels quickly, empowering you to make more informed trading decisions without manually identifying every pivot point. In this article, we’ll explore how FibExtender works, guide you step-by-step in using it, and share insights for both beginner and advanced users.
What is FibExtender ?
FibExtender is an advanced tool that automates Fibonacci extension plotting based on significant pivot points in price movements. Fibonacci extensions are percentages based on prior price swings, often used to forecast potential resistance zones where price might reverse or consolidate. By automatically marking these Fibonacci levels on your chart, FibExtender saves time and reduces the complexity of technical analysis, especially for users unfamiliar with calculating and plotting these levels manually.
FibExtender not only identifies Fibonacci levels but also provides a customizable framework where you can adjust anchor points, colors, and level visibility to suit your trading strategy. This customization allows traders to tailor the indicator to fit different market conditions and personal preferences.
Key Features of FibExtender
FibExtender offers several features to make Fibonacci level analysis easier and more effective. Here are some highlights:
Automated Fibonacci Level Identification : The script automatically detects recent swing lows and pivot points to anchor Fibonacci extensions, allowing you to view potential resistance levels with minimal effort.
Customizable Fibonacci Levels : Users can adjust the specific Fibonacci levels they want to display (e.g., 0.618, 1.0, 1.618), enabling a more focused analysis based on preferred ratios. Each level can be color-coded for visual clarity.
Dual Anchor Points : FibExtender allows you to choose between anchoring levels from either the last pivot low or a recent swing low, depending on your preference. This flexibility helps in aligning Fibonacci levels with key market structures.
Transparency and Visual Hierarchy : FibExtender automatically adjusts the transparency of levels based on their "sequence age," creating a subtle visual hierarchy. Older levels appear slightly faded, helping you focus on more recent, potentially impactful levels.
Connection Lines for Context : FibExtender draws connecting lines from recent lows to pivot highs, allowing users to visualize the price movements that generated each Fibonacci extension level.
Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners
Let’s walk through how to use the FibExtender script on a TradingView chart. This guide will ensure that you’re able to set it up and interpret the key information displayed by the indicator.
Step 1: Adding FibExtender to Your Chart
Open your TradingView chart and select the asset you wish to analyze.
Search for “FibExtender ” in the Indicators section.
Click to add the indicator to your chart, and it will automatically plot Fibonacci levels based on recent pivot points.
Step 2: Customizing Fibonacci Levels
Adjust Levels : Under the "Fibonacci Settings" tab, you can enable or disable specific levels, such as 0.618, 1.0, or 1.618. You can also change the color for each level to improve visibility.
Set Anchor Points : Choose between "Last Pivot Low" and "Recent Swing Low" as your Fibonacci anchor point. If you want a broader view, choose "Recent Swing Low"; if you prefer tighter levels, "Last Pivot Low" may be more suitable.
Fib Line Length : Modify the line length for Fibonacci levels to make them more visible on your chart.
Step 3: Spotting Visual Clusters (Manual Analysis)
Identify Potential Resistance Clusters : Look for areas on your chart where multiple Fibonacci levels appear close together. For example, if you see 1.0, 1.272, and 1.618 levels clustered within a small price range, this may indicate a stronger resistance zone.
Why Clusters Matter : Visual clusters often signify areas where traders expect heightened price reaction. When levels are close, it suggests that resistance may be reinforced by multiple significant ratios, making it harder for price to break through. Use these clusters to anticipate potential pullbacks or consolidation areas.
Step 4: Observing the Price Action Around Fibonacci Levels
As price approaches these identified levels, watch for any slowing momentum or reversal patterns, such as doji candles or bearish engulfing formations, that might confirm resistance.
Adjust Strategy Based on Resistance : If price hesitates or reverses at a clustered resistance zone, it may be a signal to secure profits or tighten stops on a long position.
Advanced Insights (for Intermediate to Advanced Users)
For users interested in the technical workings of FibExtender, this section provides insights into how the indicator functions on a code level.
Pivot Point and Swing Detection
FibExtender uses a pivot-high and pivot-low detection function to identify significant price points. The upFractal and dnFractal variables detect these levels based on recent highs and lows, creating the basis for Fibonacci extension calculations. Here’s an example of the code used for this detection:
// Fractal Calculations
upFractal = ta.pivothigh(n, n)
dnFractal = ta.pivotlow(n, n)
By setting the number of periods for n, users can adjust the sensitivity of the script to recent price swings.
Fibonacci Level Calculation
The following function calculates the Fibonacci levels based on the selected pivot points and applies each level’s specific ratio (e.g., 0.618, 1.618) to project extensions above the recent price swing.

Example Use Case: Identifying Resistance in Microsoft (MSFT)
To better understand how FibExtender highlights resistance, let’s look at Microsoft’s stock chart (MSFT), as shown in the image. The chart displays several Fibonacci levels extending upward from a recent pivot low around $408.17. Here’s how you can interpret the chart:
Clustered Resistance Levels : In the chart, note the grouping of several Fibonacci levels in the range of $450–$470. These levels, particularly when tightly packed, suggest a zone where Microsoft may encounter stronger resistance, as multiple Fibonacci levels signal potential barriers.
Applying Trading Strategies : As price approaches this clustered resistance, traders can watch for weakening momentum. If price begins to stall, it may be wise to lock in profits on long positions or set tighter stop-loss orders.
Observing Momentum Reversals : Look for specific candlestick patterns as price nears these levels, such as bearish engulfing candles or doji patterns. Such patterns can confirm resistance, helping you make informed decisions on whether to exit or manage your position.
Conclusion: Harnessing Fibonacci Extensions with FibExtender
FibExtender is a powerful tool for identifying potential resistance levels without the need for manual Fibonacci calculations. It automates the detection of key swing points and projects Fibonacci extensions, offering traders a straightforward approach to spotting potential resistance zones. For beginners, FibExtender provides a user-friendly gateway to technical analysis, helping you visualize levels where price may react.
For those with a bit more experience, the indicator offers insight into pivot points and Fibonacci calculations, enabling you to fine-tune the analysis for different market conditions.

EMD Oscillator (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) Oscillator is an advanced indicator designed to analyze market trends and cycles with high precision. It breaks down complex price data into simpler parts called Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs), allowing traders to see underlying patterns and trends that aren’t visible with traditional indicators. The result is a dynamic oscillator that provides insights into overbought and oversold conditions, as well as trend direction and strength. This indicator is suitable for all types of traders, from beginners to advanced, looking to gain deeper insights into market behavior.
█ How It Works
The core of this indicator is the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) process, a method typically used in signal processing and advanced scientific fields. It works by breaking down price data into various “layers,” each representing different frequencies in the market’s movement. Imagine peeling layers off an onion: each layer (or IMF) reveals a different aspect of the price action.
⚪ Data Decomposition (Sifting): The indicator “sifts” through historical price data to detect natural oscillations within it. Each oscillation (or IMF) highlights a unique rhythm in price behavior, from rapid fluctuations to broader, slower trends.
⚪ Adaptive Signal Reconstruction: The EMD Oscillator allows traders to select specific IMFs for a custom signal reconstruction. This reconstructed signal provides a composite view of market behavior, showing both short-term cycles and long-term trends based on which IMFs are included.
⚪ Normalization: To make the oscillator easy to interpret, the reconstructed signal is scaled between -1 and 1. This normalization lets traders quickly spot overbought and oversold conditions, as well as trend direction, without worrying about the raw magnitude of price changes.
The indicator adapts to changing market conditions, making it effective for identifying real-time market cycles and potential turning points.
█ Key Calculations: The Math Behind the EMD Oscillator
The EMD Oscillator’s advanced nature lies in its high-level mathematical operations:
⚪ Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs)
IMFs are extracted from the data and act as the building blocks of this indicator. Each IMF is a unique oscillation within the price data, similar to how a band might be divided into treble, mid, and bass frequencies. In the EMD Oscillator:
Higher-Frequency IMFs: Represent short-term market “noise” and quick fluctuations.
Lower-Frequency IMFs: Capture broader market trends, showing more stable and long-term patterns.
⚪ Sifting Process: The Heart of EMD
The sifting process isolates each IMF by repeatedly separating and refining the data. Think of this as filtering water through finer and finer mesh sieves until only the clearest parts remain. Mathematically, it involves:
Extrema Detection: Finding all peaks and troughs (local maxima and minima) in the data.
Envelope Calculation: Smoothing these peaks and troughs into upper and lower envelopes using cubic spline interpolation (a method for creating smooth curves between data points).
Mean Removal: Calculating the average between these envelopes and subtracting it from the data to isolate one IMF. This process repeats until the IMF criteria are met, resulting in a clean oscillation without trend influences.
⚪ Spline Interpolation
The cubic spline interpolation is an advanced mathematical technique that allows smooth curves between points, which is essential for creating the upper and lower envelopes around each IMF. This interpolation solves a tridiagonal matrix (a specialized mathematical problem) to ensure that the envelopes align smoothly with the data’s natural oscillations.
To give a relatable example: imagine drawing a smooth line that passes through each peak and trough of a mountain range on a map. Spline interpolation ensures that line is as smooth and close to reality as possible. Achieving this in Pine Script is technically demanding and demonstrates a high level of mathematical coding.
⚪ Amplitude Normalization
To make the oscillator more readable, the final signal is scaled by its maximum amplitude. This amplitude normalization brings the oscillator into a range of -1 to 1, creating consistent signals regardless of price level or volatility.
█ Comparison with Other Signal Processing Methods
Unlike standard technical indicators that often rely on fixed parameters or pre-defined mathematical functions, the EMD adapts to the data itself, capturing natural cycles and irregularities in real-time. For example, if the market becomes more volatile, EMD adjusts automatically to reflect this without requiring parameter changes from the trader. In this way, it behaves more like a “smart” indicator, intuitively adapting to the market, unlike most traditional methods. EMD’s adaptive approach is akin to AI’s ability to learn from data, making it both resilient and robust in non-linear markets. This makes it a great alternative to methods that struggle in volatile environments, such as fixed-parameter oscillators or moving averages.
█ How to Use
Identify Market Cycles and Trends: Use the EMD Oscillator to spot market cycles that represent phases of buying or selling pressure. The smoothed version of the oscillator can help highlight broader trends, while the main oscillator reveals immediate cycles.
Spot Overbought and Oversold Levels: When the oscillator approaches +1 or -1, it may indicate that the market is overbought or oversold, signaling potential entry or exit points.
Confirm Divergences: If the price movement diverges from the oscillator's direction, it may indicate a potential reversal. For example, if prices make higher highs while the oscillator makes lower highs, it could be a sign of weakening trend strength.
█ Settings
Window Length (N): Defines the number of historical bars used for EMD analysis. A larger window captures more data but may slow down performance.
Number of IMFs (M): Sets how many IMFs to extract. Higher values allow for a more detailed decomposition, isolating smaller cycles within the data.
Amplitude Window (L): Controls the length of the window used for amplitude calculation, affecting the smoothness of the normalized oscillator.
Extraction Range (IMF Start and End): Allows you to select which IMFs to include in the reconstructed signal. Starting with lower IMFs captures faster cycles, while ending with higher IMFs includes slower, trend-based components.
Sifting Stopping Criterion (S-number): Sets how precisely each IMF should be refined. Higher values yield more accurate IMFs but take longer to compute.
Max Sifting Iterations (num_siftings): Limits the number of sifting iterations for each IMF extraction, balancing between performance and accuracy.
Source: The price data used for the analysis, such as close or open prices. This determines which price movements are decomposed by the indicator.

Quick scan for drift🙏🏻
ML based algorading is all about detecting any kind of non-randomness & exploiting it, kinda speculative stuff, not my way, but still...
Drift is one of the patterns that can be exploited, because pure random walks & noise aint got no drift.
This is an efficient method to quickly scan tons of timeseries on the go & detect the ones with drift by simply checking wherther drift < -0.5 or drift > 0.5. The code can be further optimized both in general and for specific needs, but I left it like dat for clarity so you can understand how it works in a minute not in an hour
^^ proving 0.5 and -0.5 are natural limits with no need to optimize anything, we simply put the metric on random noise and see it sits in between -0.5 and 0.5
You can simply take this one and never check anything again if you require numerous live scans on the go. The metric is purely geometrical, no connection to stats, TSA, DSA or whatever. I've tested numerous formulas involving other scaling techniques, drift estimates etc (even made a recursive algo that had a great potential to be written about in a paper, but not this time I gues lol), this one has the highest info gain aka info content.
The timeseries filtered by this lil metric can be further analyzed & modelled with more sophisticated tools.
Live Long and Prosper
P.S.: there's no such thing as polynomial trend/drift, it's alwasy linear, these curves you see are just really long cycles
P.S.: does cheer still work on TV? @admin
Volume-Adjusted Schaff Trend Cycle (VASTC)Volume-Adjusted Schaff Trend Cycle (VASTC)
The VASTC is a fairly fast-moving oscillator designed to identify trends early and signal when trends may be nearing their end. While it can be used for both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies , it shines in trend-following setups. It’s particularly useful for catching the start of a trend and giving early warnings that a trend might end soon, making it a valuable addition to a multi-indicator system.
How It Works:
The VASTC adapts the traditional Schaff Trend Cycle by adjusting the MACD component with volume data. This volume-adjusted MACD is run through two stochastic processes , applying exponential smoothing to enhance responsiveness. Volume sensitivity allows the VASTC to adapt dynamically to periods of high or low trading activity, providing more reliable trend signals.
Recommended Use:
Use VASTC in confluence with other indicators to confirm trend entries and exits. It’s best for identifying early trend setups rather than sustaining prolonged trend trades. When used alongside other indicators, especially those with a longer-term outlook or momentum based trend indicators, you’ll gain a clearer signal for potential exits or entries. Always backtest the VASTC on your chosen assets to determine the most effective input parameters, as the defaults may not suit all markets or assets. Different assets behave differently, and adjustments in parameters can improve its ability to analyze the assets you're looking at.
Parameters:
Length : Sets the primary smoothing length.
Fast/Slow Length : Adjust the speed of the volume-adjusted MACD component.
Factor : Controls the final smoothing applied to the STC.
Overbought/Oversold Levels : Defines overbought/oversold levels.
Experiment with these settings to customize the VASTC to your trading strategy and asset.
Disclaimer : This indicator is a tool to complement your trading analysis and should not be used in isolation. Always backtest and use other confluence signals for best results. The assets I looked at when making this indicator are almost certainly different than what you're looking at.
Dema Percentile Standard DeviationDema Percentile Standard Deviation
The Dema Percentile Standard Deviation indicator is a robust tool designed to identify and follow trends in financial markets.
How it works?
This code is straightforward and simple:
The price is smoothed using a DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average).
Percentiles are then calculated on that DEMA.
When the closing price is below the lower percentile, it signals a potential short.
When the closing price is above the upper percentile and the Standard Deviation of the lower percentile, it signals a potential long.
Settings
Dema/Percentile/SD/EMA Length's: Defines the period over which calculations are made.
Dema Source: The source of the price data used in calculations.
Percentiles: Selects the type of percentile used in calculations (options include 60/40, 60/45, 55/40, 55/45). In these settings, 60 and 55 determine percentile for long signals, while 45 and 40 determine percentile for short signals.
Features
Fully Customizable
Fully Customizable: Customize colors to display for long/short signals.
Display Options: Choose to show long/short signals as a background color, as a line on price action, or as trend momentum in a separate window.
EMA for Confluence: An EMA can be used for early entries/exits for added signal confirmation, but it may introduce noise—use with caution!

Trend Levels [ChartPrime]The Trend Levels indicator is designed to identify key trend levels (High, Mid, and Low) during market trends, based on real-time calculations of highest, lowest, and mid-level values over a customizable length. Additionally, the indicator calculates trend strength by measuring the ratio of candles closing above or below the midline, providing a clear view of the ongoing trend dynamics and strength.
⯁ KEY FEATURES AND HOW TO USE
⯌ Trend Shift Signals :
Trend shifts, based on highest and lowest values during input length. When high is == to highest it will change trend to up when low == lowest value it will be shift to down trend.
// Calculate highest and lowest over the specified length
h = ta.highest(length)
l = ta.lowest(length)
// Determine trend direction: if the current high is the highest value, set trend to true
if h == high
trend := true
// If the current low is the lowest value, set trend to false
if l == low
trend := false
Whenever the trend changes direction (from uptrend to downtrend or vice versa), the indicator provides visual cues in the form of arrows. This gives traders clear signals to identify potential trend reversals, enabling them to adjust their strategies accordingly.
⯌ Trend Level Calculation :
As soon as a trend is detected (uptrend or downtrend), the indicator starts calculating the highest, lowest, and mid-level values over the defined period. These levels are plotted on the chart as color-coded lines for easy visualization, allowing traders to quickly spot the key levels within a trend.
⯌ Midline Retests :
Throughout the trend, the mid-level line is often retested, acting as a potential zone for pullbacks or rejections. Traders can use these retests as opportunities for entering positions or confirming trend continuation. The chart shows how price frequently interacts with the midline, helping to identify important reaction levels.
⯌ Trend Strength Calculation :
The indicator measures the trend strength by calculating the delta between the number of candles closing above and below the midline. This percentage-based delta is displayed in real-time, providing a clear indication of whether the trend is gaining or losing momentum.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Specifies the lookback period for calculating the highest and lowest values, which determines the key trend levels.
Candle Counting : Measures the number of candles closing above and below the midline to calculate the trend strength delta.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Trend Levels indicator provides traders with a powerful tool for visualizing trend dynamics, key levels of support and resistance, and real-time trend strength. By identifying midline retests, tracking candle counts, and providing trend shift signals, this indicator can help traders make well-informed decisions during market trends.
VWAP it GOODWhy: Instead of having 5 individual VWAP indicators, I found it beneficial for one view with a clean display. This VWAP indicator combines the daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual into one color coded view. These colors and styles can be modified by the user.
A user can turn any timeframe off, but this is how I personally like to trade since it helps me better understand potential bounce or pullback areas.
Do your own research for what is best for you.

🔵 IDEA
The Percent Trend Change indicator helps traders visualize the progression of a trend with percentage changes from entry points. It identifies trends and marks percentage changes during the trend, making it easier to assess the strength and sustainability of the ongoing trend.
The use of John Ehlers' Ultimate Smoother filter helps detect trend changes based on consecutive price movements over five bars, making it highly responsive to short- and medium-term trends.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
◉ Ultimate Smoother Filter for Trend Detection:
The trend is detected using the Ultimate Smoother filter. If the smoothed line rises five times in a row, the indicator identifies an uptrend. If it falls five times in a row, it identifies a downtrend.
◉ Trend Entry with Price Labels:
The indicator marks trend entry points with up (green) and down (red) triangles. These triangles are labeled with the entry price, allowing traders to track the starting price of the trend.
◉ Percentage Change Labels During Trends:
During a trend, the indicator periodically plots percentage change labels based on the bar period set in the settings.
In an uptrend, positive changes are marked in green, while negative changes are marked in orange. In a downtrend, negative changes are marked in red, while positive changes are marked in orange.
Each plotted percentage label also includes a count of the trend points, allowing traders to track how many times the percentage labels have been plotted during the current trend.
These percentage labels help traders understand how much the price has changed since the trend began and can be used to define potential take-profit targets.
◉ Channel Toggle and Width Customization:
The indicator includes a channel that visually highlights the trend. Traders can toggle this channel on or off, and the width of the channel can be adjusted to match individual preferences. The channel helps visualize the overall trend direction and the range within which price fluctuations occur.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION

Advanced VWAP [CryptoSea]The Advanced VWAP is a comprehensive volume-weighted average price (VWAP) tool designed to provide traders with a deeper understanding of market trends through multi-layered VWAP analysis. This indicator is ideal for those who want to track price movements in relation to VWAP bands and detect key market levels with greater precision.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe VWAP Bands: Includes multiple VWAP bands with different lookback periods (5, 10, 25, and 50), allowing traders to observe short-term and long-term price behavior.
Smoothed Band Options: Offers optional smoothing of VWAP bands to reduce noise and highlight significant trends more clearly.
Dynamic Median Line Display: Plots the median line of the VWAP bands, providing a reference for price movements and potential reversal zones.
VWAP Trend Strength Calculation: Measures the strength of the trend based on the price's position relative to the VWAP bands, normalized between -1 and 1 for easier interpretation.
In the example below we can see the VWAP Forecastd Cloud, which consists of multiple layers of VWAP bands with varying lookback periods, creating a dynamic forecast visualization. The cloud structure represents potential future price ranges by projecting VWAP-based bands outward, with darker areas indicating higher density and overlap of the bands, suggesting stronger support or resistance zones. This approach helps traders anticipate price movement and identify areas of potential consolidation or breakout as the price interacts with different layers of the forecast cloud.
How it Works
VWAP Calculation: Utilizes multiple VWAP calculations based on various lookback periods to capture a broad range of price behaviors. The indicator adapts to different market conditions by switching between short-term and long-term VWAP references.
Smoothing Algorithms: Provides the ability to smooth the VWAP bands using different moving average types (SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, VWMA) to suit various trading strategies and reduce market noise.
Trend Strength Analysis: Computes the trend strength based on the price's distance from the VWAP bands, with a value range of -1 to 1. This feature helps traders identify the intensity of uptrends and downtrends.
Alert Conditions: Includes alert options for crossing above or below the smoothed median line, as well as touching the smoothed upper or lower bands, providing timely notifications for potential trading opportunities.
This image below illustrates the use of smoothed VWAP bands, which provide a cleaner representation of the price's relationship to the VWAP by reducing market noise. The smoothed bands create a flowing cloud-like structure, making it easier to observe significant trends and potential reversal points. The circles highlight areas where the price interacts with the smoothed bands, indicating potential key levels for trend continuation or reversal. This setup helps traders focus on meaningful movements and filter out minor fluctuations, improving the identification of strategic entry and exit points based on smoother trend signals.
Application
Strategic Entry and Exit Points: Helps traders identify optimal entry and exit points based on the interaction with VWAP bands and trend strength readings.
Trend Confirmation: Assists in confirming trend strength by analyzing price movements relative to the VWAP bands and detecting significant breaks or touches.
Customized Analysis: Supports a wide range of trading styles by offering adjustable smoothing, band settings, and alert conditions to meet specific trading needs.
The Advanced VWAP by is a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, offering versatile features to navigate different market scenarios with confidence.

IQMA – Proprietary Moving Average
Introduces the IQ Moving Average (IQMA), designed to classify overarching market trends.
IQCandles – Trend Classification Tool
Complements IQMA with candlestick colors designed for trend identification and analysis.
How It Works
Reversal IQ operates on a straightforward heuristic: go long during an extended downside move and go short during an extended upside move.
What defines an "extended move" is determined by IQ Technology, TradingIQ's exclusive AI algorithm. For Reversal IQ, the algorithm assesses the extent to which historical high and low prices are breached. By learning from these price level violations, Reversal IQ adapts to trade future, similar violations in a recurring manner. It calculates a price area, distant from the current price, where a reversal is anticipated.
In simple terms, price peaks (tops) and troughs (bottoms) are stored for Reversal IQ to learn from. The degree to which these levels are violated by subsequent price movements is also recorded. Reversal IQ continuously evaluates this stored data, adapting to market volatility and raw price fluctuations to better capture price reversals.
What classifies as a price top or price bottom?
For Reversal IQ, price tops are considered the highest price attained before a significant downside reversal. Price bottoms are considered the lowest price attained before a significant upside reversal. The highest price achieved is continuously calculated before a significant counter trend price move renders the high price as a swing high. The lowest price achieved is continuously calculated before a significant counter trend price move renders the low price as a swing low.
The image above illustrates the IQ channel and explains the corresponding prices and levels
The blue lower line represents the Long Reversal Level, with the price highlighted in blue showing the Long Reversal Price.
The red upper line represents the Short Reversal Level, with the price highlighted in red showing the Short Reversal Price.
Limit orders are placed at both of these levels. As soon as either level is touched, a trade is immediately executed.
The image above shows a long position being entered after the Long Reversal Level was reached. The profit target and stop loss are calculated by Reversal IQ
The blue line indicates where the profit target is placed (acting as a limit order).
The red line shows where the stop loss is placed (acting as a stop loss order).
Green arrows indicate that the strategy entered a long position at the highlighted price level.
You can also hover over the trade labels to get more information about the trade—such as the entry price, profit target, and stop loss.
The image above demonstrates the profit target being hit for the trade. All profitable trades are marked by a blue arrow and blue line. Hover over the blue arrow to obtain more details about the trade exit.

Long Entry: Green Arrow
Short Entry: Red Arrow
Profitable Trades: Blue Arrow
Losing Trades: Red Arrow
IQMA
The IQMA implements a dynamic moving average that adapts to market conditions by adjusting its smoothing factor based on its own slope. This makes it more responsive in volatile conditions (steeper slopes) and smoother in less volatile conditions.
The IQMA is not used by Reversal IQ as a trade condition; however, the IQMA can be used by traders to characterize the overarching trend and elect to trade only long positions during bullish conditions and only short positions during bearish conditions.
The IQMA is an adaptive smoothing function that applies a combination of multiple moving averages to reduce lag and noise in the data. The adaptiveness is achieved by dynamically adjusting the Volatility Factor (VF) based on the slope (derivative) of the price trend, making it more responsive to strong trends and smoother in consolidating markets.
This process effectively makes the moving average a self-adjusting filter, the IQMA attempts to track both trending and ranging market conditions by dynamically changing its sensitivity in response to price movements.
When IQMA is blue, an overarching uptrend is in place. When IQMA is red, an overarching downtrend is in place.
IQ Candles
IQ Candles are price candles color-coordinated with IQMA. IQ Candles help visualize the overarching trend and are not used by Reversal IQ to determine trade entries and trade exits.
AI Aggressiveness
Reversal IQ has only one setting that controls its functionality.
AI Aggressiveness controls the aggressiveness of the AI. This setting has three options: Sniper, Aggressive, and Very Aggressive.
Sniper Mode
In Sniper Mode, Reversal IQ will prioritize trading large deviations from established reversal levels and extracting the largest countertrend move possible from them.
Aggressive Mode
In Aggressive Mode, Reversal IQ still prioritizes quality but allows for strong, quantity-based signals. More trades will be executed in this mode with tighter stops and profit targets. Aggressive mode forces Reversal IQ to learn from narrower raw-dollar violations of historical levels.
Very Aggressive Mode
In Very Aggressive Mode, Reversal IQ still prioritizes the strongest quantity-based signals. Stop and target distances aren't inherently affected, but entries will be aggressive while prioritizing performance. Very Aggressive mode forces Reversal IQ to learn from narrower raw-dollar violations of historical levels and also forces it to embrace volatility more aggressively.
AI Direction
The AI Direction setting controls the trade direction Reversal IQ is allowed to take.
“Both” allows for both long and short trades.
“Long” allows for only long trades.
“Short” allows for only short trades.
Verifying Reversal IQ’s Effectiveness
Reversal IQ automatically tracks its performance and displays the profit factor for the long strategy and the short strategy it uses. This information can be found in a table located in the top-right corner of your chart.
The image above shows the long strategy profit factor and the short strategy profit factor for Reversal IQ.
A profit factor greater than 1 indicates a strategy profitably traded historical price data.

Using Reversal IQ
While Reversal IQ is a full-fledged trading system with entries and exits, it was designed for the manual trader to take its trading signals and analysis indications to greater heights - offering numerous applications beyond its built-in trading system.
The hallmark feature of Reversal IQ is its sniper-like reversal signals. While exits are dynamically calculated as well, Reversal IQ simply has a knack for "sniping" price reversals.
When performing live analysis, you can use the IQ Channel to evaluate price reversal areas, whether price has extended too far in one direction, and whether price is likely to reverse soon.
Of course, in times of exuberance or panic, price may push through the reversal levels. While infrequent, it can happen to any indicator.
The deeper price moves into the bullish reversal area (blue) the better chance that price has extended too far and will reverse to the upside soon. The deeper price moves into the bearish reversal area (red) the better chance that price has extended too far and will reverse to the downside soon.
Of course, you can set alerts for all Reversal IQ entry and exit signals, effectively following along its systematic conquest of price movement.
