Whale Supertrend (V1.2)The script "Whale Supertrend (V1.2)" is an advanced trend indicator that uses multiple Supertrends with different factors to determine entry and exit points in the market. The Supertrend is a popular indicator that combines price and volatility to help identify trend direction. The script displays buy and sell signals based on the confluence of Supertrends.
How the script works
Configuring Supertrends
The script configures six Supertrends with different factors (factor, factor1, factor2, factor3, factor4, factor5) while using the same ATR period (atrPeriod = 10).
Supertrend 1: factor = 3
Supertrend 2: factor1 = 4
Supertrend 3: factor2 = 6
Supertrend 4: factor3 = 9
Supertrend 5: factor4 = 13
Supertrend 6: factor5 = 18
For each Supertrend, the bullish (blue) and bearish (purple) trend conditions are plotted on the chart.
Signal Calculation
The script calculates the number of Supertrends in bullish and bearish trend:
bullishCount: Number of Supertrends indicating a bullish trend.
bearishCount: Number of Supertrends indicating a bearish trend.
Signal Detection
The script triggers a buy or sell signal when at least three of the six Supertrends indicate the same trend:
Buy Signal (buySignal): Triggers when bullishCount is greater than or equal to 3.
Sell Signal (sellSignal): Triggers when bearishCount is greater than or equal to 3.
To avoid repetition, signals are only displayed when the state changes:
triggerBuy: Buy signal only when buySignal becomes true for the first time.
triggerSell: Sell signal only when sellSignal becomes true for the first time.
Candle Coloring:
Candles now change color based on signals:
Green: When a Buy Signal is active.
Red: When a Sell Signal is active.
This provides a clearer visualization of market trends directly on the chart.
Dynamic Settings for Supertrends:
You can customize the ATR Period and Factor for each of the 6 Supertrends via the settings panel.
Each Supertrend has independent parameters:
ATR Period: Controls the ATR calculation period.
Factor: Adjusts the Supertrend sensitivity.
Benefits:
Enhanced Readability: Candle colors help identify buy and sell zones at a glance.
Greater Customization: Tailor Supertrend settings to your trading strategy or market conditions.

Pearson Correlation CoefficientDescription: The Pearson Correlation Coefficient measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two data series. Its value ranges from -1 to +1, where:
+1 indicates a perfect positive linear correlation: as one asset increases, the other asset increases proportionally.
0 indicates no linear correlation: variations in one asset have no relation to variations in the other asset.
-1 indicates a perfect negative linear correlation: as one asset increases, the other asset decreases proportionally.
This measure is widely used in technical analysis to assess the degree of correlation between two financial assets. The "Pearson Correlation (Manual Compare)" indicator allows users to manually select two assets and visually display their correlation relationship on a chart.
Features:
Correlation Period: The time period used for calculating the correlation can be adjusted (default: 50).
Comparison Asset: Users can select a secondary asset for comparison.
Visual Plots: The chart includes reference lines for perfect correlations (+1 and -1) and strong correlations (+0.7 and -0.7).
Alerts: Set alerts for when the correlation exceeds certain threshold values (e.g., +0.7 for strong positive correlation).
How to Select the Second Asset:
Primary Asset Selection: The primary asset is the one you select for viewing on the chart. This can be done by simply opening the chart for the desired asset.
Secondary Asset Selection: To select the secondary asset for comparison, use the input field labeled "Comparison Asset" in the script settings. You can manually enter the ticker symbol of the secondary asset you want to compare with the primary asset.
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to identify relationships and correlations between different financial assets to make informed trading decisions.

Auto-Adjusting Kalman Filter by TenozenNew year, new indicator! Auto-Adjusting Kalman Filter is an indicator designed to provide an adaptive approach to trend analysis. Using the Kalman Filter (a recursive algorithm used in signal processing), this algo dynamically adjusts to market conditions, offering traders a reliable way to identify trends and manage risk! In other words, it's a remaster of my previous indicator, Kalman Filter by Tenozen.
What's the difference with the previous indicator (Kalman Filter by Tenozen)?
The indicator adjusts its parameters (Q and R) in real-time using the Average True Range (ATR) as a measure of market volatility. This ensures the filter remains responsive during high-volatility periods and smooth during low-volatility conditions, optimizing its performance across different market environments.
The filter resets on a user-defined timeframe, aligning its calculations with dominant trends and reducing sensitivity to short-term noise. This helps maintain consistency with the broader market structure.
A confidence metric, derived from the deviation of price from the Kalman filter line (measured in ATR multiples), is visualized as a heatmap:
Green : Bullish confidence (higher values indicate stronger trends).
Red : Bearish confidence (higher values indicate stronger trends).
Gray : Neutral zone (low confidence, suggesting caution).
This provides a clear, objective measure of trend strength.
How it works?
The Kalman Filter estimates the "true" price by filtering out market noise. It operates in two steps, that is, prediction and update. Prediction is about projection the current state (price) forward. Update is about adjusting the prediction based on the latest price data. The filter's parameters (Q and R) are scaled using normalized ATR, ensuring adaptibility to changing market conditions. So it means that, Q (Process Noise) increases during high volatility, making the filter more responsive to price changes and R (Measurement Noise) increases during low volatility, smoothing out the filter to avoid overreacting to minor fluctuations. Also, the trend confidence is calculated based on the deviation of price from the Kalman filter line, measured in ATR multiples, this provides a quantifiable measure of trend strength, helping traders assess market conditions objectively.
How to use?
Use the Kalman Filter line to identify the prevailing trend direction. Trade in alignment with the filter's slope for higher-probability setups.
Look for pullbacks toward the Kalman Filter line during strong trends (high confidence zones)
Utilize the dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels to manage risk and lock in profits
Confidence Heatmap provides an objective measure of market sentiment, helping traders avoid low-confidence (neutral) zones and focus on high-probability opportunities
Guess that's it! I hope this indicator helps! Let me know if you guys got some feedback! Ciao!
EMA Crossover with 50 EMA Filter50-period EMA: We added the 50-period EMA as the filterEMA variable.
Buy and Sell Conditions: The buy signal is generated only if the 8-period and 16-period EMAs both cross above each other and are above the 50-period EMA. Similarly, the sell signal is generated when the 8-period and 16-period EMAs cross below each other and are below the 50-period EMA.
Plotting: The 50-period EMA is also plotted on the chart (in orange).
This strategy will ensure that the buy signals are only triggered when the trend is considered "bullish" (both EMAs above the 50 EMA) and sell signals when the trend is "bearish" (both EMAs below the 50 EMA).
You can set up alerts for both buy and sell conditions using the alertcondition() function.
Let me know if you need further adjustments!

Candle Emotion Index (CEI) StrategyThe Candle Emotion Index (CEI) Strategy is an innovative sentiment-based trading approach designed to help traders identify and capitalize on market psychology. By analyzing candlestick patterns and combining them into a unified metric, the CEI Strategy provides clear entry and exit signals while dynamically managing risk. This strategy is ideal for traders looking to leverage market sentiment to identify high-probability trading opportunities.
How It Works
The CEI Strategy is built around three core oscillators that reflect key emotional states in the market:
Indecision Oscillator . Measures market uncertainty using patterns like Doji and Spinning Tops. High values indicate hesitation, signaling potential turning points.
Fear Oscillator . Tracks bearish sentiment through patterns like Shooting Star, Hanging Man, and Bearish Engulfing. Helps identify moments of intense selling pressure.
Greed Oscillator . Detects bullish sentiment using patterns like Marubozu, Hammer, Bullish Engulfing, and Three White Soldiers. Highlights periods of strong buying interest.
These oscillators are averaged into the Candle Emotion Index (CEI):
CEI = (Indecision + Fear + Greed) / 3
This single value quantifies overall market sentiment and drives the strategy’s trading decisions.
Key Features
Sentiment-Based Trading Signals . Long Entry: Triggered when the CEI crosses above a lower threshold (e.g., 0.1), indicating increasing bullish sentiment. Short Entry: Triggered when the CEI crosses above a higher threshold (e.g., 0.2), signaling rising bearish sentiment.
Volume Confirmation . Trades are validated only if volume exceeds a user-defined multiplier of the average volume over the lookback period. This ensures entries are backed by significant market activity.
Break-Even Recovery Mechanism . If a trade moves into a loss, the strategy attempts to recover to break-even instead of immediately exiting at a loss. This feature provides flexibility, allowing the market to recover while maintaining disciplined risk management.
Dynamic Risk Management . Maximum Holding Period: Trades are closed after a user-defined number of candles to avoid overexposure to prolonged uncertainty. Profit-Taking Conditions: Positions are exited when favorable price moves are confirmed by increased volume, locking in gains. Loss Threshold: Trades are exited early if the price moves unfavorably beyond a set percentage of the entry price, limiting potential losses.
Cooldown Period . After a trade is closed, a cooldown period prevents immediate re-entry, reducing overtrading and improving signal quality.
Why Use This Strategy?
The CEI Strategy combines advanced sentiment analysis with robust trade management, making it a powerful tool for traders seeking to understand market psychology and identify high-probability setups. Its unique features, such as the break-even recovery mechanism and volume confirmation, add an extra layer of discipline and reliability to trading decisions.
Best Practices
Combine with Other Indicators . Use trend-following tools (e.g., moving averages, ADX) and momentum oscillators (e.g., RSI, MACD) to confirm signals.
Align with Key Levels . Incorporate support and resistance levels for refined entries and exits.
Multi-Market Compatibility . Apply this strategy to forex, crypto, stocks, or any asset class with strong volume and price action.
Dynamic Ticks Oscillator Model (DTOM)The Dynamic Ticks Oscillator Model (DTOM) is a systematic trading approach grounded in momentum and volatility analysis, designed to exploit behavioral inefficiencies in the equity markets. It focuses on the NYSE Down Ticks, a metric reflecting the cumulative number of stocks trading at a lower price than their previous trade. As a proxy for market sentiment and selling pressure, this indicator is particularly useful in identifying shifts in investor behavior during periods of heightened uncertainty or volatility (Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993).
Theoretical Basis
The DTOM builds on established principles of momentum and mean reversion in financial markets. Momentum strategies, which seek to capitalize on the persistence of price trends, have been shown to deliver significant returns in various asset classes (Carhart, 1997). However, these strategies are also susceptible to periods of drawdown due to sudden reversals. By incorporating volatility as a dynamic component, DTOM adapts to changing market conditions, addressing one of the primary challenges of traditional momentum models (Barroso & Santa-Clara, 2015).
Sentiment and Volatility as Core Drivers
The NYSE Down Ticks serve as a proxy for short-term negative sentiment. Sudden increases in Down Ticks often signal panic-driven selling, creating potential opportunities for mean reversion. Behavioral finance studies suggest that investor overreaction to negative news can lead to temporary mispricings, which systematic strategies can exploit (De Bondt & Thaler, 1985). By incorporating a rate-of-change (ROC) oscillator into the model, DTOM tracks the momentum of Down Ticks over a specified lookback period, identifying periods of extreme sentiment.
In addition, the strategy dynamically adjusts entry and exit thresholds based on recent volatility. Research indicates that incorporating volatility into momentum strategies can enhance risk-adjusted returns by improving adaptability to market conditions (Moskowitz, Ooi, & Pedersen, 2012). DTOM uses standard deviations of the ROC as a measure of volatility, allowing thresholds to contract during calm markets and expand during turbulent ones. This approach helps mitigate false signals and aligns with findings that volatility scaling can improve strategy robustness (Barroso & Santa-Clara, 2015).
Practical Implications
The DTOM framework is particularly well-suited for systematic traders seeking to exploit behavioral inefficiencies while maintaining adaptability to varying market environments. By leveraging sentiment metrics such as the NYSE Down Ticks and combining them with a volatility-adjusted momentum oscillator, the strategy addresses key limitations of traditional trend-following models, such as their lagging nature and susceptibility to reversals in volatile conditions.

Global Relevant Events MarkerThe Global Relevant Events Marker script is designed to mark significant global events on a chart, such as economic crises or major geopolitical events. It uses vertical lines to indicate the exact dates of these events and places labels (optional) near the lines to provide a description of the event.
Trend with ADX/EMA - Buy & Sell SignalsThis script is designed to help traders make buy and sell decisions based on trend analysis using two key methods: ADX (Average Directional Index) and EMA (Exponential Moving Averages). Here's a breakdown in simple terms:
What Does It Do?
Identifies the Trend's Strength and Direction:
Uses the ADX indicator to determine how strong the trend is.
Compares two lines (DI+ and DI−) to identify whether the trend is moving up or down.
Generates Buy and Sell Signals:
Uses two EMAs (a fast one and a slow one) to check when the price crosses key levels, signaling a possible buy or sell opportunity.
Plots visual indicators (arrows and labels) for easy interpretation.
Color-Codes the Chart:
Highlights the background in green when the trend is bullish (uptrend).
Highlights the background in red when the trend is bearish (downtrend).
Alerts the User:
Creates alerts when specific conditions for buying or selling are met.
Key Components:
1. ADX (Trend Strength & Direction)
What is ADX?
ADX measures how strong the trend is (not the direction). Higher ADX means a stronger trend.
It also calculates two lines:
DI+: Measures upward movement strength.
DI−: Measures downward movement strength.
How It Works in the Script:
If DI+ is greater than DI−, it’s a bullish trend (upward).
If DI− is greater than DI+, it’s a bearish trend (downward).
The background turns green for an uptrend and red for a downtrend.
2. EMA (Buy and Sell Decisions)
What is EMA?
EMA is a moving average that gives more weight to recent prices. It’s used to smooth out price fluctuations.
How It Works in the Script:
The script calculates two EMAs:
Fast EMA (short-term average): Reacts quickly to price changes.
Slow EMA (long-term average): Reacts slower and shows overall trends.
When the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA, it’s a signal to Buy.
When the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA, it’s a signal to Sell.
These signals are marked on the chart as "Buy" and "Sell" labels.
3. Buy and Sell Alerts
The script sets up alerts for the user:
Buy Alert: When a crossover indicates a bullish signal.
Sell Alert: When a crossunder indicates a bearish signal.
Visual Elements on the Chart:
Background Colors:
Green: When the DI+ line indicates an uptrend.
Red: When the DI− line indicates a downtrend.
EMA Lines:
Green Line: Fast EMA.
Red Line: Slow EMA.
Buy/Sell Labels:
"Buy" label: Shown when the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
"Sell" label: Shown when the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
Why Use This Script?
Trend Analysis: Helps you quickly identify the strength and direction of the market trend.
Buy/Sell Signals: Gives clear signals to enter or exit trades based on trend and EMA crossovers.
Custom Alerts: Ensures you never miss a trading opportunity by notifying you when conditions are met.
Visual Simplicity: Makes it easy to interpret trading signals with color-coded backgrounds and labeled arrows.
Emergent Rays - NovaTheMachineEmergent Rays
An emergent ray is a refracted ray of light that exits a medium or channel. Emergent rays can be created when light passes through a prism, glass slab, or mirror
This visual indicator has been designed to aid in developing psychological understanding of price action. Many traders often struggle with developing strategy that they can act on, repeatedly. The difference between gambling and trading successfully comes down to following a plan, that you have tested and determined to be profitable over the long term.
Some traders experience anxiety when trading trends, trying to time a reversal, or entering a trade based on emotions and are unsure where they should place a stop - if they bother to place one at all.
I developed this indicator to help traders practice responsible trading practices and develop discipline. When applied to a chart an array of light rays will be plotted, similarly to those that are emitted from light passing through a medium such as a prism. These rays are a series of EMAs high & low values, filled with an assigned color.
The indicator does not suggest an entry or exit, it allows for freedom of user interpretation, however - when in a trending market you may notice that the rays are tested multiple times when the market is trending in the same direction. When trading trends it makes sense to enter at the discounted value (pullbacks) and exit on extensions. There are two main reasons for this; first is manage risk, second is to profit from a successful trade.
To practice discipline and remove emotions from trading, one must be willing to accept the outcome of a trade - regardless of whether it was profitable or not, based on their strategy.
The visual gradient of the rays signifies the pullback to stoploss risk. As price expands it is clear to see that the distance from red to blue rays increases, which means entering a trade on a touch of the red ray requires a larger stoploss than entering a pullback to the green or blue rays. When price closes on the opposite side of a ray from where it was trending - we accept the trend may have ended and must wait for the next trend cycle. If the price action is range bound we will notice the rays melting together to create a grey ray that signifies this is not the best place to be trading any type of trend following strategy.
Using this indicator in an uptrend (price expansion upwards), we look to enter long positions of retests (pullbacks) into the rays - with a stoploss set below the lowest rays; as we do not believe the uptrend is over until the trend has been broken.
Using this indicator in a downtrend (price expansion downwards), we look to enter short positions of retests (pullbacks) into the rays - with a stoploss set below the lowest rays; as we do not believe the uptrend is over until the trend has been broken.
When price is range bound or consolidating, we do not enter trades; wait for clear trend to be established.
By practicing discipline, we are able to overcome the emotions involved with trading, remove hesitation, and trade our plans more confidently through appropriate risk management and radical acceptance.
Intraday Chaos FilterIntraday trading requires precise tools and strategies to navigate the chaotic fluctuations of the market. The "Intraday Chaos Filter" indicator is designed to provide traders with a systematic approach to managing market noise. This Pine Script™ indicator helps identify potential trend shifts and provides a visual representation of price action, aiding in making informed trading decisions. By focusing on reducing market chaos, it aims to provide a clearer picture of the underlying trend, regardless of the volatility.
At the heart of the indicator lies the multiplier input, a customizable setting that adjusts the sensitivity of the filter. The multiplier directly influences the chaos threshold by determining the percentage deviation allowed before signaling a trend reversal. A higher multiplier results in a less sensitive filter, reducing the number of signals during minor price fluctuations. This flexibility allows traders to adapt the indicator to different trading styles and market conditions, making it versatile for a range of intraday strategies.
The "Intraday Chaos Filter" operates by tracking two key price levels: src1 and src2, representing the highest and lowest prices during a trend. These levels are dynamically adjusted based on the closing price, ensuring that the indicator adapts in real time. The trend direction is determined by comparing the current price against a calculated filter level. When the price crosses the threshold in either direction, it signals a potential trend reversal, marked by a change in candle colors on the chart. Green represents an upward trend, while red signifies a downward trend, making it visually intuitive for traders.
This indicator's simplicity and clarity make it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit. By focusing on trend direction and filtering out minor fluctuations, it helps traders stay focused on significant market movements. The integration of customizable settings ensures adaptability to various trading preferences, providing both novice and experienced traders with a reliable tool for intraday decision-making. The "Intraday Chaos Filter" offers an effective way to navigate market noise, enabling traders to identify opportunities with confidence.
Codi's Perp-Spot Basis# Perp-Spot Basis Indicator
This indicator calculates the percentage basis between perpetual futures and spot prices for crypto assets. It is inspired by the original concept from **Krugermacro**, with the added improvement of **automatic detection of the asset pairs** based on the current chart symbol. This enhancement makes it faster and easier to apply across different assets without manual configuration.
## How It Works
The indicator compares the perpetual futures price (e.g., `BTCUSDT.P`) to the spot price (e.g., `BTCUSDT`) on Binance. The difference is expressed as a percentage: (Perp - Spot) / Spot * 100
The results are displayed in a color-coded graph:
- **Blue (Positive Basis):** Perpetual futures are trading at a premium, indicating **bullish sentiment** among derivatives traders.
- **Red (Negative Basis):** Perpetual futures are trading at a discount, indicating **bearish sentiment** among derivatives traders.
This percentage basis is a core component in understanding funding rates and derivatives market dynamics. It serves as a faster proxy for funding rates, which typically lag behind real-time price movements.

## How to Use It
### General Concept
- **Red (Negative Basis):** Ideal to execute **longs** when derivatives traders are overly bearish.
- **Blue (Positive Basis):** Ideal to execute **shorts** when derivatives traders are overly bullish.
### Pullback Sniping
1. During an **uptrend**:
- If the basis turns **red** temporarily, it can signal an opportunity to **buy the dip**.
2. During a **downtrend**:
- If the basis turns **blue** temporarily, it can signal an opportunity to **sell the rip**.
3. Wait for the basis to **pop back** (higher in uptrend, lower in downtrend) to time entries more effectively—this often coincides with **stop runs** or **liquidations**.
### Intraday Execution
- **When price is falling**:
- If the basis is **red**, the move is derivatives-led (**normal**).
- If the basis is **blue**, spot traders are leading, and perps are offside—wait for **price dumps** before longing.
- **When price is rising**:
- If the basis is **blue**, the move is derivatives-led (**normal**).
- If the basis is **red**, spot traders are leading, and perps are offside—wait for **price pops** before shorting.
### Larger Time Frames
- **Consistently Blue Basis:** Indicates a **bull market** as derivatives traders are bullish over the long term.
- **Consistently Red Basis:** Indicates a **bear market** as derivatives traders are bearish over the long term.

## Improvements Over the Original
This version of the Perp-Spot Basis indicator **automatically detects the Binance perpetual futures and spot pairs** based on the current chart symbol. For example:
- If you are viewing `ETHUSDT`, it automatically references `ETHUSDT.P` for the perpetual futures pair and `ETHUSDT` for the spot pair in BINANCE.
