DateTimeLibrary with enums that can be used as script inputs to allow users to set their preferred date and/or time formats. The user-selected formats can be passed to the library functions (which use 𝚜𝚝𝚛.𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚝_𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎() under the hood) to get formatted date and time strings from a UNIX time.
PREFACE
The target audience of this publication is users creating their own indicators/strategies.
Sometimes a date and/or time needs to be displayed to the user. As a Pine Coder, it is natural to focus our initial attention on the primary calculations or functions of a script, which can lead to the display format of dates and times being an afterthought. While it may not be crucial for the main use case of a script, increased customizability can help push indicators/strategies to the next level in the eyes of the user.
The purpose of this library is to provide an easy-to-use mechanism for allowing script users to choose the formats of dates and times that are displayed to them. Not only is this helpful for users from around the world who may be accustomed to different date/time formats, but it also makes it easier for the script author because it offloads the date/time formatting decision from the author to the user.
HOW TO USE
Step 1
Import the library. Replace with the latest available version number for this library.
//@version=6
indicator("Example")
import n00btraders/DateTime/ as dt
Step 2
Select a date format and/or time format enum to be used as an input.
dateFormatInput = input.enum(dt.DateFormat.FORMAT_3, "Date format")
timeFormatInput = input.enum(dt.TimeFormat.TWENTY_FOUR_HOURS, "Time hours format")
Step 3
Pass the user's selection as the `format` parameter in the formatting functions from this library. The `timestamp` & `timezone` parameters can be any value that would otherwise be used in 𝚜𝚝𝚛.𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚝_𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎(𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎, 𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚝, 𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎𝚣𝚘𝚗𝚎).
string formattedDate = dt.formatDate(timestamp, dateFormatInput, timezone)
string formattedTime = dt.formatTime(timestamp, timeFormatInput, timezone)
LIMITATIONS
The library's ease-of-use comes at a few costs:
Fixed date/time formats.
Using the library's pre-defined date & time formats means that additional custom formats cannot be utilized. For example, this library does not include seconds or fractional seconds in formatted time strings. If a script's use case requires displaying the 'seconds' from a time of day, then 𝚜𝚝𝚛.𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚝_𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎() must be used directly.
Fixed time zone offset format.
The `formatTime()` function of this library can optionally add the time zone offset at the end of the time string, but the format of the offset cannot be specified. Note: if the default format for time zone offset is not sufficient, the Timezone library can be imported directly to get the time zone offset string in a preferred format.
ADVANTAGES
There are benefits to utilizing this library instead of directly using 𝚜𝚝𝚛.𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚝_𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎():
Easy to use from the user's perspective.
The date & time format enums provide a similar look and feel to the "Date format" and "Time hours format" options that already exist in the TradingView chart settings.
Easy to use from the author's perspective.
The exported functions from this library are modeled to behave similarly to the 𝚜𝚝𝚛.𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚝_𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎(𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎, 𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚝, 𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎𝚣𝚘𝚗𝚎) built-in function from Pine Script.
Format quarter of the year.
The date formatting function from this library can display a fiscal quarter if it's included in the user-selected format. This is currently not possible with the built-in 𝚜𝚝𝚛.𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚝_𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎().
EXPORTED ENUM TYPES
This section will list the available date/time formats that can be used as a script input. Each enum type has a detailed //@𝚏𝚞𝚗𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 description in the source code to help determine the best choice for your scripts.
Date Format Enums:

Advanced Adaptive Grid Trading StrategyThis strategy employs an advanced grid trading approach that dynamically adapts to market conditions, including trend, volatility, and risk management considerations. The strategy aims to capitalize on price fluctuations in both rising (long) and falling (short) markets, as well as during sideways movements. It combines multiple indicators to determine the trend and automatically adjusts grid parameters for more efficient trading.
How it Works:
Trend Analysis:
Short, long, and super long Moving Averages (MA) to determine the trend direction.
RSI (Relative Strength Index) to identify overbought and oversold levels, and to confirm the trend.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) to confirm momentum and trend direction.
Momentum indicator.
The strategy uses a weighted scoring system to assess trend strength (strong bullish, moderate bullish, strong bearish, moderate bearish, sideways).
Grid System:
The grid size (the distance between buy and sell levels) changes dynamically based on market volatility, using the ATR (Average True Range) indicator.
Grid density also adapts to the trend: in a strong trend, the grid is denser in the direction of the trend.
Grid levels are shifted depending on the trend direction (upwards in a bear market, downwards in a bull market).
Trading Logic:
The strategy opens long positions if the trend is bullish and the price reaches one of the lower grid levels.
It opens short positions if the trend is bearish and the price reaches one of the upper grid levels.
In a sideways market, it can open positions in both directions.
Risk Management:
Stop Loss for every position.
Take Profit for every position.
Trailing Stop Loss to protect profits.
Maximum daily loss limit.
Maximum number of positions limit.
Time-based exit (if the position is open for too long).
Risk-based position sizing (optional).
Input Options:
The strategy offers numerous settings that allow users to customize its operation:
Timeframe: The chart's timeframe (e.g., 1 minute, 5 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, 1 day, 1 week).
Base Grid Size (%): The base size of the grid, expressed as a percentage.
Max Positions: The maximum number of open positions allowed.
Use Volatility Grid: If enabled, the grid size changes dynamically based on the ATR indicator.
ATR Length: The period of the ATR indicator.
ATR Multiplier: The multiplier for the ATR to fine-tune the grid size.
RSI Length: The period of the RSI indicator.
RSI Overbought: The overbought level for the RSI.
RSI Oversold: The oversold level for the RSI.
Short MA Length: The period of the short moving average.
Long MA Length: The period of the long moving average.
Super Long MA Length: The period of the super long moving average.
MACD Fast Length: The fast period of the MACD.
MACD Slow Length: The slow period of the MACD.
MACD Signal Length: The period of the MACD signal line.
Stop Loss (%): The stop loss level, expressed as a percentage.
Take Profit (%): The take profit level, expressed as a percentage.
Use Trailing Stop: If enabled, the strategy uses a trailing stop loss.
Trailing Stop (%): The trailing stop loss level, expressed as a percentage.
Max Loss Per Day (%): The maximum daily loss, expressed as a percentage.
Time Based Exit: If enabled, the strategy exits the position after a certain amount of time.
Max Holding Period (hours): The maximum holding time in hours.
Use Risk Based Position: If enabled, the strategy calculates position size based on risk.
Risk Per Trade (%): The risk per trade, expressed as a percentage.
Max Leverage: The maximum leverage.
Important Notes:

⭕️ Usage
━ First Steps:
When opening, select any point on the chart. It will not affect anything until you turn on Manual Start mode (more on this below).
The chart will immediately show the best results of the default Auto mode. You can switch Part's to try to find even better results in the table.
Now you can display any result from the table on the chart by entering its ID in the settings.
Repeat steps 3-4 until you determine which type of Stop Loss you like best. Then set it in the settings instead of Auto mode.
* Example: I flipped through 14 parts before I liked the first result and entered its ID so I could visually evaluate it on the chart.
Then select the stop loss type, choose it in place of Auto mode and repeat steps 3-4 or immediately follow the recommendations of the algorithm.
Now the Genetic Algorithm at the bottom right will prompt you to enter the Parameters you need to search for and select even better results.
Parameters must be entered All at once before they are updated. Enter recommendations strictly in fields with the same names.
Repeat steps 5-6 until there are approximately 10 Part's left or as you like. And after that, easily pour through the remaining Parts and select the best parameters.
━ Example of the finished result.
━ Example of use with Takes
You can also test at the same time along with Take Profit. In this example, I simply enabled Risk/Reward mode and immediately specified in the TP field Maximum RR, Minimum RR and Step. So in this example I can test (3-1) / 0.1 = 20 Takes of different sizes. There are additional tips in the settings.
━
* Soon you will start to understand how the system works and things will become much easier.
* If something doesn't work, just reset the engine settings and start over again.
* Use the tips I have left in the settings and on the Panel.

⭕️ How it Works
Hypothesis of Uniform Distribution of Rare Elements After Mixing.
'This hypothesis states that if an array of N elements contains K valid elements, then after mixing, these valid elements will be approximately uniformly distributed.'
'This means that in a random sample of k elements, the proportion of valid elements should closely match their proportion in the original array, with some random variation.'
'According to the central limit theorem, repeated sampling will result in an average count of valid elements following a normal distribution.'
'This supports the assumption that the valid elements are evenly spread across the array.'
'To test this hypothesis, we can conduct an experiment:'
'Create an array of 1,000,000 elements.'
'Select 1,000 random elements (1%) for validation.'
'Shuffle the array and divide it into groups of 1,000 elements.'
'If the hypothesis holds, each group should contain, on average, 1~ valid element, with minor variations.'
* I'd like to attach more details to My hypothesis but it won't be very relevant here. Since this is a whole separate topic, I will leave the minimum part for understanding the engine.
Practical Application
To apply this hypothesis, I needed a way to generate and thoroughly mix numerous possible combinations. Within Pine, generating over 100,000 combinations presents significant challenges, and storing millions of combinations requires excessive resources.
I developed an efficient mechanism that generates combinations in random order to address these limitations. While conventional methods often produce duplicates or require generating a complete list first, my approach guarantees that the first 10% of possible combinations are both unique and well-distributed. Based on my hypothesis, this sampling is sufficient to determine optimal testing parameters.
Most generators and randomizers fail to accommodate both my hypothesis and Pine's constraints. My solution utilizes a simple Linear Congruential Generator (LCG) for pseudo-randomization, enhanced with prime numbers to increase entropy during generation. I pre-generate the entire parameter range and then apply systematic mixing. This approach, combined with a hybrid combinatorial array-filling technique with linear distribution, delivers excellent generation quality.
My engine can efficiently generate and verify 300 unique combinations per batch. Based on the above, to determine optimal values, only 10-20 Parts need to be manually scrolled through to find the appropriate value or range, eliminating the need for exhaustive testing of millions of parameter combinations.
For the Score statistic I applied all the same, generated a range of Weights, distributed them randomly for each type of statistic to avoid manual distribution.
Score ━ based on Trade, Profit, WinRate, Profit Factor, Drawdown, Sharpe & Sortino & Omega & Calmar Ratio.
⭕️ Notes
For attentive users, a little tricks :)
To save time, switch parts every 3 seconds without waiting for it to load. After 10-20 parts, stop and wait for loading. If the pause is correct, you can switch between the rest of the parts without loading, as they will be cached. This used to work without having to wait for a pause, but now it does slower. This will save a lot of time if you are going to do a deeper backtest.
Sometimes you'll get the error “The scripts take too long to execute.”
For a quick fix you just need to switch the TF or Ticker back and forth and most likely everything will load.
The error appears because of problems on the side of the site because the engine is very heavy. It can also appear if you set too long a period for testing in BackWin or use a heavy indicator for testing.
Manual Start - Allow you to Start you Result from any point. Which in turn can help you choose a good stop-stick for your real position.
* It took me half a year from idea to current realization. This seems to be one of the few ways to build something automatic in backtest format and in this particular Pine environment. There are already better projects in other languages, and they are created much easier and faster because there are no limitations except for personal PC. If you see solutions to improve this system I would be glad if you share the code. At the moment I am tired and will continue him not soon.
Also You can use my previosly big Backtest project with more manual settings(updated soon)

High and Low with Horizontal TableHigh and Low with Horizontal Table Indicator
Overview
The "High and Low with Horizontal Table" indicator is designed for traders who wish to monitor key levels based on specific candle times, along with dynamic risk-to-reward ratios and ATR-based values. This indicator features real-time calculations, visual cues, and a table for quick reference of the calculated values.
Key Features
Custom Time Inputs:
Users can define two specific time inputs to select the candles for the High and Low prices. These times can target the same or separate candles.
ATR-based Calculation:
The indicator allows users to apply an ATR Multiplier to adjust the calculation of key levels. By default, the ATR multiplier is set to 1.2, but users can adjust it to their preferred value (e.g., 1.5 or 2).
Risk-to-Reward (R:R) Calculation:
The Risk-to-Reward Ratio (R:R) is used to calculate potential Take Profit (TP) levels based on the high and low of the selected candle(s).
The default R:R ratio is 2.0, but it can be customized to suit the trader’s strategy.
Visual Markings:
The High and Low values are plotted with subtle markers on the chart (cross style) for easy identification. The display of these markers is subdued for minimal visual distraction.
Horizontal Table Display:
A horizontal table is generated in the top-right corner of the chart, providing a quick reference for the following values:
High and Low of the selected candle(s)
High + ATR Multiplier and Low - ATR Multiplier
R:R ratio
Buy TP and Sell TP levels
Each value is displayed with a reasonable number of decimal places (4 decimals) for major forex pairs, XAUUSD, and BTCUSD.
Input Parameters
Hour and Minute for High Candle: Select the time for the candle that will determine the High.
Hour and Minute for Low Candle: Select the time for the candle that will determine the Low.
ATR Multiplier: A customizable input for adjusting the ATR-based calculations (default is 1.2).
Risk-to-Reward (R:R): Set the ratio to determine the TP levels (default is 2.0).
How It Works
The user defines two distinct time inputs (one for the High and one for the Low).
At the specified times, the indicator captures the High and Low prices of the candles.
The ATR is calculated and adjusted by the user-defined ATR Multiplier to determine buffers above the High and below the Low.
The Risk-to-Reward ratio is applied to calculate the Take Profit levels.
All of these values are displayed on the chart and updated in real time. The horizontal table ensures quick reference to all the key levels without cluttering the main chart.
Use Cases
Trend Trading: Identify potential support and resistance levels based on specific timeframes and adjust TP targets using ATR.
Scalping: Use the ATR and R:R calculations to target precise entry and exit points.
Market Opens: Track key market opens (such as New York and London) with candle times that reflect your trading strategy.
Conclusion
The High and Low with Horizontal Table indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to combine precise candle-based level tracking with ATR-based risk management. By displaying key levels and TP targets in a clear, tabular format, traders can quickly assess and act on key price levels throughout their trading sessions.
Chart Box Session Indicator [The Quant Science]This indicator allows highlighting specific time sessions within a chart by creating colored boxes to represent the price range of the selected session. Is an advanced and flexible tool for chart segmenting trading sessions. Thanks to its extensive customization options and advanced visualization features, it allows traders to gain a clear representation of key market areas based on chosen time intervals.
The indicator offers two range calculation modes:
Body to Body: considers the range between the opening and closing price.
Wick to Wick: considers the range between the session's low and high.
Body To Body
Wick to Wick
Key Features
1. Session Configuration
- Users can select the time range of the session of interest.
- Option to choose the day of the week for the calculation.
- Supports UTC timezone selection to correctly align data.
2. Customizable Visualization
- Option to display session price lines.
- Ability to show a central price line.
- Extension of session lines beyond the specified duration.
3. Design Display Configuration
- Three different background configurations to suit light and dark themes.
- Two gradient modes for session coloring:
- Centered: the color is evenly distributed.
- Off-Centered: the gradient is asymmetrical.
How It Works
The indicator determines whether the current time falls within the selected session, creating a colored box that highlights the corresponding price range. Depending on user preferences, the indicator draws horizontal lines at the minimum and maximum price levels and, optionally, a central line.
During the session:
- The lowest and highest session prices are dynamically updated.
- The range is divided into 10 bands to create a gradient effect.
- A colored box is generated to visually highlight the chosen session.
If the Extend Lines option is enabled, price lines continue even after the session ends, keeping the range visible for further analysis.
This indicator is useful for traders who want to analyze price behavior in specific timeframes. It is particularly beneficial for strategies based on market sessions (e.g., London or New York open) or for identifying accumulation and distribution zones.
is_strategyCorrection-Adaptive Trend Strategy (Open-Source)
Core Advantage: Designed specifically for the is_correction indicator, with full transparency and customization options.
Key Features:
Open-Source Code:
✅ Full access to the strategy logic – study how every trade signal is generated.
✅ Freedom to customize – modify entry/exit rules, risk parameters, or add new indicators.
✅ No black boxes – understand and trust every decision the strategy makes.
Built for is_correction:
Filters out false signals during market noise.
Works only in confirmed trends (is_correction = false).
Adaptable for Your Needs:
Change Take Profit/Stop Loss ratios directly in the code.
Add alerts, notifications, or integrate with other tools (e.g., Volume Profile).
For Developers/Traders:
Use the code as a template for your own strategies.
Test modifications risk-free on historical data.
How the Strategy Works:
Main Goal:
Automatically buys when the price starts rising and sells when it starts falling, but only during confirmed trends (ignoring temporary pullbacks).
What You See on the Chart:
📈 Up arrows ▼ (below the candle) = Buy signal.
📉 Down arrows ▲ (above the candle) = Sell signal.
Gray background = Market is in a correction (no trades).
Key Mechanics:
Buy Condition:
Price closes higher than the previous candle + is_correction confirms the main trend (not a pullback).
Example: Red candle → green candle → ▼ arrow → buy.
Sell Condition:
Price closes lower than the previous candle + is_correction confirms the trend (optional: turn off short-selling in settings).
Exit Rules:
Closes trades automatically at:
+0.5% profit (adjustable in settings).
-0.5% loss (adjustable).
Or if a reverse signal appears (e.g., sell signal after a buy).
User-Friendly Settings:
Sell – On (default: ON):
ON → Allows short-selling (selling when price falls).
OFF → Strategy only buys and closes positions.
Revers (default: OFF):
ON → Inverts signals (▼ = sell, ▲ = buy).
%Profit & %Loss:
Adjust these values (0-30%) to increase/decrease profit targets and risk.
Example Scenario:
Buy Signal:
Price rises for 3 days → green ▼ arrow → strategy buys.
Stop loss set 0.5% below entry price.
If price keeps rising → trade closes at +0.5% profit.
Correction Phase:
After a rally, price drops for 1 day → gray background → strategy ignores the drop (no action).
Stop Loss Trigger:
If price drops 0.5% from entry → trade closes automatically.
Key Features:
Correction Filter (is_correction):
Acts as a “noise filter” → avoids trades during temporary pullbacks.
Flexibility:
Disable short-selling, flip signals, or tweak profit/loss levels in seconds.
Transparency:
Open-source code → see exactly how every signal is generated (click “Source” in TradingView).
Tips for Beginners:
Test First:
Run the strategy on historical data (click the “Chart” icon in TradingView).
See how it performed in the past.
Customize It:
Increase %Profit to 2-3% for volatile assets like crypto.
Turn off Sell – On if short-selling confuses you.
Trust the Stop Loss:
Even if you think the price will rebound, the strategy will close at -0.5% to protect your capital.
Where to Find Settings:
Click the strategy name on the top-left of your chart → adjust sliders/toggles in the menu.

Как работает стратегия:
Главная задача:
Автоматически покупает, когда цена начинает расти, и продаёт, когда падает. Но делает это «умно» — только когда рынок в основном тренде, а не во временном откате (коррекции).
Что видно на графике:
📈 Стрелки вверх ▼ (под свечой) — сигнал на покупку.
📉 Стрелки вниз ▲ (над свечой) — сигнал на продажу.
Серый фон — рынок в коррекции (не торгуем).
Как это работает:
Когда покупаем:
Если цена закрылась выше предыдущей и индикатор is_correction показывает «основной тренд» (не коррекция).
Пример: Была красная свеча → стала зелёная → появилась стрелка ▼ → покупаем.
Когда продаём:
Если цена закрылась ниже предыдущей и is_correction подтверждает тренд (опционально, можно отключить в настройках).
Когда закрываем сделку:
Автоматически при достижении:
+0.5% прибыли (можно изменить в настройках).
-0.5% убытка (можно изменить).
Или если появился противоположный сигнал (например, после покупки пришла стрелка продажи).
Настройки для чайников:
«Sell – On» (включено по умолчанию):
Если включено → стратегия будет продавать в шорт.
Если выключено → только покупки и закрытие позиций.
«Revers» (выключено по умолчанию):
Если включить → стратегия будет работать наоборот (стрелки ▼ = продажа, ▲ = покупка).
«%Profit» и «%Loss»:
Меняйте эти цифры (от 0 до 30), чтобы увеличить/уменьшить прибыль и риски.
Пример работы:
Сигнал на покупку:
Цена 3 дня растет → появляется зелёная стрелка ▼ → стратегия покупает.
Стоп-лосс ставится на 0.5% ниже цены входа.
Если цена продолжает расти → сделка закрывается при +0.5% прибыли.
Коррекция:
После роста цена падает на 1 день → фон становится серым → стратегия игнорирует это падение (не закрывает сделку).
Стоп-лосс:
Если цена упала на 0.5% от точки входа → сделка закрывается автоматически.
Важные особенности:
Фильтр коррекций (is_correction):
Это «защита от шума» — стратегия не реагирует на мелкие откаты, работая только в сильных трендах.
Гибкие настройки:
Можно запретить шорты, перевернуть сигналы или изменить уровни прибыли/убытка за 2 клика.
Прозрачность:
Весь код открыт → вы можете увидеть, как формируется каждый сигнал (меню «Исходник» в TradingView).
Советы для новичков:
Начните с теста:
Запустите стратегию на исторических данных (кнопка «Свеча» в окне TradingView).
Посмотрите, как она работала в прошлом.
Настройте под себя:
Увеличьте %Profit до 2-3%, если торгуете валюты.
Отключите «Sell – On», если не понимаете шорты.
Доверяйте стоп-лоссу:
Даже если кажется, что цена развернётся — стратегия закроет сделку при -0.5%, защитив ваш депозит.
Где найти настройки:
Кликните на название стратегии в верхнем левом углу графика → откроется меню с ползунками и переключателями.
Важно: Стратегия предоставляет «рыбу» – чтобы она стала «уловистой», адаптируйте её под свой стиль торговли!
200 EMA AlertHow It Works:
The 200 EMA calculates the average price over the last 200 periods, giving more weight to recent price movements for a smoother and more responsive trend line.
It helps traders determine whether the market is in a bullish (above 200 EMA) or bearish (below 200 EMA) phase.
Why Traders Use the 200 EMA:
✅ Trend Confirmation – If the price is above the 200 EMA, the trend is bullish; if below, the trend is bearish.
✅ Dynamic Support & Resistance – Price often reacts around the 200 EMA, making it a key level for entries and exits.
✅ Works on All Timeframes – Whether on the 1-minute chart or the daily timeframe, the 200 EMA is effective for scalping, swing trading, and long-term investing.
✅ Easy to Combine with Other Indicators – Traders pair it with RSI, MACD, or price action for stronger confirmation.
How to Use It in Trading:
📌 Trend Trading – Buy when price pulls back to the 200 EMA in an uptrend; sell when price retests it in a downtrend.
📌 Breakout Strategy – A strong candle breaking above/below the 200 EMA signals a possible trend reversal.
📌 Filtering Trades – Many traders only take long trades above and short trades below the 200 EMA to align with the overall market trend.
Conclusion:
The 200 EMA is an essential indicator for traders of all levels, offering clear trend direction, strong support/resistance zones, and trade filtering for better decision-making. Whether you're trading forex, stocks, or crypto, mastering the 200 EMA can give you a significant edge in the markets. 🚀📈
Consecutive Bullish/Bearish Candles🔍 Overview:
This indicator detects market manipulation and deception by identifying sequences of consecutive bullish or bearish candles. It highlights potential reversal zones where trends may exhaust or trap traders before reversing.
📌 How It Works:
The user can set a custom number of consecutive bullish or bearish candles (default: 5).
If the set number of consecutive green (bullish) or red (bearish) candles appears, the indicator plots a signal on the chart.
This pattern often signals exhaustion, stop hunts, or market traps, making it useful for traders looking for reversal opportunities.
📊 Features:
✅ Customizable candle count for detection
✅ Visual signals (✅ for bullish, ❌ for bearish)
✅ Alerts support for automated notifications
✅ Works on all timeframes and all markets (crypto, stocks, forex)
⚠️ Note:
This indicator does not guarantee reversals but helps identify areas where traders may be trapped and a trend shift is likely. Always use it with other confluence factors like volume, support/resistance, and market sentiment.
🚀 Use this tool to spot market deception and trade smart!
Wave Modulation Demo█ OVERVIEW
This script demonstrates Stacked Wave Modulation by visualizing four interconnected waves. Wave 1 is the base wave, influencing Wave 2's frequency, which in turn modulates Wave 3's amplitude, and finally, Wave 3 modulates Wave 4's phase. Explore the fascinating effects of wave modulation by adjusting the inputs for each wave and their modulation scales.
══════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ CONCEPTS
This script visualizes a cascade of wave modulations:
1 — Base Wave (Wave 1): This is the foundational wave. Its parameters (type, frequency, amplitude, phase, vertical shift) are directly controlled and serve as the basis for subsequent modulations.
2 — Frequency Modulation (Wave 2): Wave 2's frequency is modulated by Wave 1 . As Wave 1 oscillates, it dynamically changes the frequency of Wave 2 , creating interesting frequency variations. The Frequency Mod Scale input controls the intensity of this modulation.
3 — Amplitude Modulation (Wave 3): Building upon the cascade, Wave 3 's amplitude is modulated by Wave 2 . The peaks and troughs of Wave 2 influence the amplitude of Wave 3 , resulting in amplitude variations. The Amplitude Mod Scale input adjusts the strength of this amplitude modulation.
4 — Phase Modulation (Wave 4): Finally, Wave 4 's phase is modulated by Wave 3 . Wave 3 's oscillations shift the phase of Wave 4 , leading to phase-related distortions and dynamic wave patterns. The Phase Mod Scale input determines the extent of phase modulation.
5 — Stacked Wave (Average): The script calculates and plots the average of all four waves, providing a composite view of the combined modulation effects.
══════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ FEATURES
The script is organized into input groups for each wave, allowing for detailed customization:
1 — Wave 1: Base Wave
• Type : Select the waveform type for Wave 1 (Sine, Cosine, Triangle, Square).
• Frequency (Hz) : Sets the base frequency of Wave 1 in Hertz (cycles per second).
• Amplitude : Controls the vertical amplitude or height of Wave 1.
• Phase Shift (deg) : Adjusts the phase shift of Wave 1 in degrees, shifting the wave horizontally.
• Vertical Shift : Sets the vertical position of Wave 1 on the chart.
2 — Wave 2: Frequency Modulation
• Type : Select the waveform type for Wave 2.
• Base Frequency (Hz) : Sets the base frequency of Wave 2, before modulation.
• Amplitude : Controls the amplitude of Wave 2.
• Phase Shift (deg) : Adjusts the phase shift of Wave 2.
• Vertical Shift : Sets the vertical position of Wave 2.
• Frequency Mod Scale : Determines the degree to which Wave 1 modulates Wave 2's frequency. Higher values increase the modulation effect.
3 — Wave 3: Amplitude Modulation
• Type : Select the waveform type for Wave 3.
• Base Frequency (Hz) : Sets the base frequency of Wave 3.
• Amplitude : Controls the base amplitude of Wave 3, before modulation.
• Phase Shift (deg) : Adjusts the phase shift of Wave 3.
• Vertical Shift : Sets the vertical position of Wave 3.
• Amplitude Mod Scale : Determines the degree to which Wave 2 modulates Wave 3's amplitude. Higher values increase the modulation effect.
4 — Wave 4: Phase Modulation
• Type : Select the waveform type for Wave 4.
• Base Frequency (Hz) : Sets the base frequency of Wave 4.
• Amplitude : Controls the amplitude of Wave 4.
• Phase Shift (deg) : Sets the base phase shift of Wave 4, before modulation.
• Vertical Shift : Sets the vertical position of Wave 4.
• Phase Mod Scale : Determines the degree to which Wave 3 modulates Wave 4's phase. Higher values increase the modulation effect.
══════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ HOW TO USE
1. Add the "Stacked Wave Modulation Demo" script to your TradingView chart.
2. Explore the input settings. Each wave has its own group of customizable parameters.
3. Adjust the Type , Frequency , Amplitude , Phase Shift , and Vertical Shift for each wave to define their base characteristics.
4. Experiment with the modulation scales ( Frequency Mod Scale , Amplitude Mod Scale , Phase Mod Scale ) to control the intensity of the modulation effects between the waves.
5. Observe how the waves interact and how the modulations shape their forms and the final stacked wave (average).
══════════════════════════════════════════════════
█ NOTES
* This script utilizes the `waves` and `hsvColor` libraries. Look for other scripts on my profile.
* The frequencies are set in Hertz (cycles per second), which relate to bars on the chart. A frequency of 0.5 Hz means 0.5 cycles per bar, or 1 cycle every 2 bars.
* Adjusting the modulation scales allows you to fine-tune the visual impact of the modulation effects.
* The color of each wave plot is dynamically generated based on its value using the HSV color model for visual distinction.
* Feel free to modify and experiment with the script to create different modulation schemes or stacking methods.

Volume Flow Indicator Signals | iSolani
Volume Flow Indicator Signals | iSolani: Decoding Trend Momentum with Volume Precision
In markets where trends are fueled by institutional participation, discerning genuine momentum from false moves is critical. The Volume Flow Indicator Signals | iSolani cuts through this noise by synthesizing price action with volume dynamics, generating high-confidence signals when capital flows align with directional bias. This tool reimagines traditional volume analysis by incorporating volatility-adjusted thresholds and dual-layer smoothing, offering traders a laser-focused approach to trend identification.
Core Methodology
The indicator employs a multi-stage calculation to quantify volume-driven momentum:
Volatility-Adjusted Filter: Measures price changes via log returns, scaling significance using a 30-bar standard deviation multiplied by user-defined sensitivity (default: 2x).
Volume Normalization: Caps extreme volume spikes at 3x the 50-bar moving average, preventing distortion from anomalous trades.
Directional Volume Flow: Assigns positive/negative values to volume based on whether price movement exceeds volatility-derived thresholds.
Dual Smoothing: Applies consecutive SMA (3-bar) and EMA (14-bar) to create the Volume Flow Indicator (VFI) and its signal line, filtering out transient fluctuations.
Breaking New Ground
This implementation introduces three key innovations:
Adaptive Noise Gates: Unlike static volume oscillators, the sensitivity coefficient dynamically adjusts to market volatility, reducing false signals during choppy conditions.
Institutional Volume Capping: The vcoef parameter limits the influence of outlier volume spikes, focusing on sustained institutional activity rather than one-off trades.
Non-Repainting Signals: Generates single-per-trend labels (buy below bars, sell above) to avoid chart clutter while maintaining visual clarity.
Engine Under the Hood
The script executes through five systematic stages:
Data Preparation: Computes HLC3 typical price and its logarithmic rate of change.
Threshold Calculation: Derives dynamic cutoff levels using 30-period volatility scaled by user sensitivity.
Volume Processing: Filters raw volume through a 50-bar SMA, capping extremes at 3x average.
VFI Construction: Sums directional volume flow over 50 bars, smoothed with a 3-bar SMA.
Signal Generation: Triggers alerts when VFI crosses zero, confirmed by a 14-bar EMA crossover.
Standard Configuration
Optimized defaults balance responsiveness and reliability:
Volume MA: 50-bar smoothing window
Sensitivity: 2.0 (doubles volatility threshold)
Signal Smoothing: 14-bar EMA
Volume Cap: 3x average (hidden parameter)
VFI Smoothing: Enabled (3-bar SMA)
By fusing adaptive volume filtering with price confirmation logic, the Volume Flow Indicator Signals | iSolani transforms raw market data into institutional-grade trend signals. Its ability to mute choppy price action while amplifying high-conviction volume moves makes it particularly effective for spotting early trend reversals in equities, forex, and futures markets.

Astro R4.0Regarding the code that has a significant impact on Pine Community and many feel helped by it, this is the code that I ported from VBA to PineScript which comes from simontelescopium owner of astroexcel dot wordpress dot com and "astrofnc" by Keith Burnett, previously I used it personally but I forgot to give a citation to those who are entitled to them both so that when I shared it for community use and it has been shared by brother @BarefootJoey with the additions made by him personally, there was no citation for them.
Apologies for my negligence because I am only human.
Hopefully with this script it can help the community to see the potential for implementation in the trading world as a significant variable.
Finally, I publish this script as a reference to find out astronomical charts presented in table form to make it easier to visualize and debug as long as the input.timestamp() allow it.
Future updates for optimization using library of brother @BarefootJoey
Thank you.

Cash And Carry Arbitrage BTC Compare Month 6 by SeoNo1Detailed Explanation of the BTC Cash and Carry Arbitrage Script
Script Title: BTC Cash And Carry Arbitrage Month 6 by SeoNo1
Short Title: BTC C&C ABT Month 6
Version: Pine Script v5
Overlay: True (The indicators are plotted directly on the price chart)
Purpose of the Script
This script is designed to help traders analyze and track arbitrage opportunities between the spot market and futures market for Bitcoin (BTC). Specifically, it calculates the spread and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) from a cash-and-carry arbitrage strategy until a specific expiry date (in this case, June 27, 2025).
The strategy helps identify profitable opportunities when the futures price of BTC is higher than the spot price. Traders can then buy BTC in the spot market and short BTC futures contracts to lock in a risk-free profit.
1. Input Settings
Spot Symbol: The real-time BTC spot price from Binance (BTCUSDT).
Futures Symbol: The BTC futures contract that expires in June 2025 (BTCUSDM2025).
Expiry Date: The expiration date of the futures contract, set to June 27, 2025.
These inputs allow users to adjust the symbols or expiry date according to their trading needs.
2. Price Data Retrieval
Spot Price: Fetches the latest closing price of BTC from the spot market.
Futures Price: Fetches the latest closing price of BTC futures.
Spread: The difference between the futures price and the spot price (futures_price - spot_price).
The spread indicates how much higher (or lower) the futures price is compared to the spot market.
3. Time to Maturity (TTM) and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) Calculation
Current Date: Gets the current timestamp.
Time to Maturity (TTM): The number of days left until the futures contract expires.
APY Calculation:
Formula:
APY = ( Spread / Spot Price ) x ( 365 / TTM Days ) x 100
This represents the annualized return from holding a cash-and-carry arbitrage position if the trader buys BTC at the spot price and sells BTC futures.
4. Display Information Table on the Chart
A table is created on the chart's top-right corner showing the following data:
Metric: Labels such as Spread and APY
Value: Displays the calculated spread and APY
The table automatically updates at the latest bar to display the most recent data.
5. Alert Condition
This sets an alert condition that triggers every time the script runs.
In practice, users can modify this alert to trigger based on specific conditions (e.g., APY exceeds a threshold).
6. Plotting the APY and Spread
APY Plot: Displays the annualized yield as a blue line on the chart.
Spread Plot: Visualizes the futures-spot spread as a red line.
This helps traders quickly identify arbitrage opportunities when the spread or APY reaches desirable levels.
How to Use the Script
Monitor Arbitrage Opportunities:
A positive spread indicates a potential cash-and-carry arbitrage opportunity.
The larger the APY, the more profitable the arbitrage opportunity could be.
Timing Trades:
Execute a buy on the BTC spot market and simultaneously sell BTC futures when the APY is attractive.
Close both positions upon futures contract expiry to realize profits.
Risk Management:
Ensure you have sufficient margin to hold both positions until expiry.
Monitor funding rates and volatility, which could affect returns.
Conclusion
This script is an essential tool for traders looking to exploit price discrepancies between the BTC spot market and futures market through a cash-and-carry arbitrage strategy. It provides real-time data on spreads, annualized returns (APY), and visual alerts, helping traders make informed decisions and maximize their profit potential.
Oblique StrategiesHi, this is a fun script that will print an Oblique Strategy to help you think laterally for the day of trading ahead of you.
Oblique Strategies are a concept conceived by Brian Eno the Music Producer, Artist, and modern-day philosopher. Oblique Strategies are a pack of 52 cards that have a creative suggestion on each one. When Brian was at a point at which he could not see a clear way forward in his creations, he would pick out a random card out of the Oblique Strategies pack, to help him think differently as to how to move forward. They are specifically devised for music creators, but i find the help in a multitude of situations.

Advanced Averaged Momentum Indicator (AAMI)Key Features of AAMI:
Combination of Momentum Indicators: It averages normalized values from RSI, MACD histogram, raw Momentum, and Stochastic oscillator to give a comprehensive view of momentum.
Normalization: Each component is normalized to a scale from -1 to 1 to ensure they contribute equally to the AMI calculation.
Visual Cues: The indicator includes visual levels for neutral, overbought, and oversold conditions to aid in quick decision-making.
Alerts: Basic alert conditions are included for when AMI moves into overbought or oversold territory, which traders can customize further.
Customizable: All parameters can be adjusted within TradingView to tailor the indicator to different market conditions or trading strategies.
Smoothing: Included an SMA for AMI to reduce noise and give smoother signals.
Divergence Detection: Implemented a basic divergence detection mechanism to spot potential reversals.
Usage Tips:
Overbought/Oversold: When AMI goes above 0.7, it might suggest an overbought condition, potentially signaling a sell or take profit. Below -0.7 might indicate oversold conditions, suggesting a buy opportunity.
Divergence: Watch for divergences between the AMI and price action for signals of potential trend reversals.
Crossing Zero: The AMI crossing from negative to positive might be used as a buy signal, and vice versa for a sell signal.
This script provides a new way to view momentum by consolidating multiple traditional indicators into one, potentially offering clearer signals in complex market environments.
Boilerplate Configurable Strategy [Yosiet]This is a Boilerplate Code!
Hello! First of all, let me introduce myself a little bit. I don't come from the world of finance, but from the world of information and communication technologies (ICT) where we specialize in data processing with the aim of automating it and eliminating all human factors and actors in the processes. You could say that I am an algotrader.
That said, in my journey through trading in recent years I have understood that this world is often shown to be incomplete. All those who want to learn about trading only end up learning a small part of what it really entails, they only seek to learn how to read candlesticks. Therefore, I want to share with the entire community a fraction of what I have really understood it to be.
As a computer scientist, the most important thing is the data, it is the raw material of our work and without data you simply cannot do anything. Entropy is simple: Data in -> Data is transformed -> Data out.
The quality of the outgoing data will directly depend on the incoming data, there is no greater mystery or magic in the process. In trading it is no different, because at the end of the day it is nothing more than data. As we often say, if garbage comes in, garbage comes out.
Most people focus on the results only, on the outgoing data, because in the end we all want the same thing, to make easy money. Very few pay attention to the input data, much less to the process.
Now, I am not here to delude you, because there is no bigger lie than easy money, but I am here to give you a boilerplate code that will help you create strategies where you only have to concentrate on the quality of the incoming data.
To the Point
The code is a strategy boilerplate that applies the technique that you decide to customize for the criteria for opening a position. It already has the other factors involved in trading programmed and automated.
1. The Entry
This section of the boilerplate is the one that each individual must customize according to their needs and knowledge. The code is offered with two simple, well-known strategies to exemplify how the code can be reused for your own benefits.
For the purposes of this post on tradingview, I am going to use the simplest of the known strategies in trading for entries: SMA Crossing
// SMA Cross Settings
maFast = ta.sma(close, length)
maSlow = ta.sma(open, length)
The Strategy Properties for all cases published here:
For Stock TSLA H1 From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Crypto XMR-USDT 30m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Forex EUR-USD 5m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
But the goal of this post is not to sell you a dream, else to show you that the same Entry decision works very well for some and does not for others and with this boilerplate code you only have to think of entries, not exits.
2. Schedules, Days, Sessions
As you know, there are an infinite number of markets that are susceptible to the sessions of each country and the news that they announce during those sessions, so the code already offers parameters so that you can condition the days and hours of operation, filter the best time parameters for a specific market and time frame.
3. Data Filtering
The data offered in trading are numerical series presented in vectors on a time axis where an endless number of mathematical equations can be applied to process them, with matrix calculation and non-linear regressions being the best, in my humble opinion.
4. Read Fundamental Macroeconomic Events, News
The boilerplate has integration with the tradingview SDK to detect when news will occur and offers parameters so that you can enable an exclusion time margin to not operate anything during that time window.
5. Direction and Sense
In my experience I have found the peculiarity that the same algorithm works very well for a market in a time frame, but for the same market in another time frame it is only a waste of time and money. So now you can easily decide if you only want to open LONG, SHORT or both side positions and know how effective your strategy really is.
6. Reading the money, THE PURPOSE OF EVERYTHING
The most important section in trading and the reason why many clients usually hire me as a financial programmer, is reading and controlling the money, because in the end everyone wants to win and no one wants to lose. Now they can easily parameterize how the money should flow and this is the genius of this boilerplate, because it is what will really decide if an algorithm (Indicator: A bunch of math equations) for entries will really leave you good money over time.
7. Managing the Risk, The Ego Destroyer
Many trades, little money. Most traders focus on making money and none of them know about statistics and the few who do know something about it, only focus on the winrate. Well, with this code you can unlock what really matters, the true success criteria to be able to live off of trading: Profit Factor, Sortino Ratio, Sharpe Ratio and most importantly, will you really make money?
8. Managing Emotions
Finally, the main reason why many lose money is because they are very bad at managing their emotions, because with this they will no longer need to do so because the boilerplate has already programmed criteria to chase the price in a position, cut losses and maximize profits.
In short, this is a boilerplate code that already has the data processing and data output ready, you only have to worry about the data input.
“And so the trader learned: the greatest edge was not in predicting the storm, but in building a boat that could not sink.”
DISCLAIMER
This post is intended for programmers and quantitative traders who already have a certain level of knowledge and experience. It is not intended to be financial advice or to sell you any money-making script, if you use it, you do so at your own risk.
