Correlation Coefficient - DXY & XAUPublishing my first indicator on TradingView. Essentially a modification of the Correlation Coefficient indicator, that displays a 2 ticker symbols' correlation coefficient vs, the chart presently loaded.. You can modify the symbols, but the default uses DXY and XAU, which have been displaying strong negative correlation.
As with the built-in CC (Correlation Coefficient) indicator, readings are taken the same way:
Positive Correlation = anything above 0 | stronger as it moves up towards 1 | weaker as it moves back down towards 0
Negative Correlation = anything below 0 | stronger moving down towards -1 | weaker moving back up towards 0
This is primarily created to work with the Bitcoin weekly chart, for comparing DXY and Gold (XAU) price correlations (in advance, when possible). If you change the chart timeframe to something other than weekly, consider playing with the Length input, which is set to 35 by default where I think it best represents correlations with Bitcoin's weekly timeframe for DXY and Gold.
The intention is that you might be able to determine future direction of Bitcoin based on positive or negative correlations of Gold and/or the US Dollar Index. DXY has been making peaks and valleys prior to Bitcoin since after March 2020 black swan event, where it peaked just after instead. In the future, it may flip over again and Bitcoin may hit major highs or lows prior to DXY, again. So, keep an eye on the charts for all 3, as well as the indicator correlations.
Currently, we've moved back into negative correlation between Bitcoin and DXY, and positive correlation with Bitcoin and Gold:
Negative Correlation b/w Bitcoin and DXY - if DXY moves up, Bitcoin likely moves down, or if DXY moves down, Bitcoin likely moves up (or if Bitcoin were to move first before DXY, as it did on March 2020, instead)
Positive Correlation b/w Bitcoin and Gold - Bitcoin and Gold will likely move up or down with each other.
DXY is represented by the green histogram and label, Gold is represented by the yellow histogram and label. Again, you can modify the tickers you want to check against, and you can modify the colors for their histograms / labels.
The inspiration from came from noticing areas of same date or delayed negative correlation between Bitcoin and DXY, here is one of my most recent posts about that:
Please let me know if you have any questions, or would like to see updates to the indicator to make it easier to use or add more useful features to it.
I hope this becomes useful to you in some way. Thank you for your support!
Cheers,

Statistics
MA Correlation CoefficientThis script helps you visualize the correlation between the price of an asset and 4 moving averages of your choice. This indicator can help you identify trendy markets as well as trend-shifts.
Disclaimer
Bear in mind that there is always some lag when using Moving-Averages, hence the purpose of this indicator is as a trend identification tool rather than an entry-exit strategy.
Working Principle
The basic idea behind this indicator is the following:
In a trendy market you will find high correlation between price and all kinds of Moving-Averages. This works both ways, no matter bull or bear trend.
In sideways markets you might find a mix of correlations accross timeframes (2018) or high correlation with Low-Timeframe averages and low correlation with High-Timeframe averages (2021/2022).
Trend shifts might be characterised by a 'staircase' type of correlation (yellow), where the asset regains correlation with higher timeframe averages
Indicator Options
1. Source : data used for indicator calculation
1. Correlation Window : size of moving window for correlation calculation
2. Average Type :
Simple-Moving-Average (SMA)
Exponential-Moving-Average (EMA)
Hull-Moving-Average (HMA)
Volume-Weighted-Moving-Average (VWMA)
3. Lookback : number of past candles to calculate average
4. Gradient : modify gradient colors. colors relate to correlation values.
Plot Explanation
The indicator plots, using colors, the correlation of the asset with 4 averages. For every candle, 4 correlation values are generated, corresponding to 4 colors. These 4 colors are stacked one on top of the other generating the patterns explained above. These patterns may help you identify what kind of market you're in.
Session KillZones [7Bridges]Session Killzones by 7Bridges indicator display the killzones of asian, LND and NY sessions. There is also a custom session of your choice.
The times of each killzone are GMT time and you can adjust it in the settings.
You have also the beginning of the day, GMT and EST timezones.
By default the killzones are set like that on the GMT/UTC timezone :
-> Asia : 00:00 - 06:00
-> Pre London : 06:00 - 07:00
-> London : 07:00 - 10:00
-> New York : 12:00 - 15:00
-> Custom session : choose your own time
What makes the indicator very different is that the session is not overlapping the price but you have bars below and above the price.
Settings:
-> you can chose to display the Killzones (Asia, pre LND, LND and NY)
-> you can manages the time of the sessions
-> you can chose to display the start of the day (GMT/UTC and EST )
The indicator is displayed by default only for all the timeframes below 60min.
Variance WindowsJust a quick trial at using statistical variance/standard deviation as an indicator. The general idea is that higher variance in the short term tends to indicate more volatility/movement. The other thing is that it can help set probabilistic boundaries for movements (e.g., if you set the bars to be 2 standard deviations, you are visualizing a range that denotes a 95% probability window).
I haven't really tried forming any sort of strategies around this indicator, but there are a few potential possibilities for its usability.
Generally speaking, the magnitude of the standard deviation (relative to the price) is small when the market is consolidating. It is larger when the market is trending up or own.
If the long term variance and the short-term variance are close to each other in scale, the trend is strong. Otherwise, the trend is weak. Note that I am only saying that the "trend" is strong , not that it is necessarily positive. this could be an up-trend, down-trend, or a sideways trend.
When the magnitudes of the variances are changing from very similar to very different (usually it's the long-term variance getting much larger than the short-term one), that's an indication that the previous trend is coming to an end.
Typically, it's the long-term variance that is bigger than the short-term. However, when you see them cross where the short-term is bigger or even much bigger than the long-term, it's indicative of a spike event (more often than not, one that is not favorable if you are holding any position on a given security).
Because you have probabilistic windows based on some n standard deviations from the midline (which in this version, I've used a ZLEMA as that midline), those boundaries could possibly be used to set stop-loss limits and the like.
There's nothing too complicated or deep about this particular indicator. All I'm really doing is assuming that we are dealing with a Gaussian random process. I am actually using EMA as my mean computation, even though for a proper Gaussian variance calculation, I should be using SMA. When I used SMA, though, it felt a lot more sensitive to noise, which made it feel less usable. In any case, it's just a simple first trial in many years after not having even looked at Pine Script to finally messing around with it again. Open to a litany of criticisms as I'm sure there will be many that are rightly deserved. Otherwise, happy scalping to thee.
Crypto Correlation MatrixA crypto correlation matrix or table is a tool that displays the correlation between different cryptocurrencies and other financial assets. The matrix provides an overview of the degree to which various cryptocurrencies move in tandem or independently of each other. Each cell represents the correlation between the row and column assets respectively.
The correlation matrix can be useful for traders and investors in several ways:
First, it allows them to identify trends and patterns in the behavior of different cryptocurrencies. By looking at the correlations between different assets, traders can gain insight into the intra-relationships of the crypto market and make more informed trading decisions. For example, if two cryptocurrencies have a high positive correlation, meaning that they tend to move in the same direction, a trader may want to diversify their portfolio by choosing to invest in only one of the two assets.
Additionally, the correlation matrix can help traders and investors to manage risk. By analyzing the correlations between different assets, traders can identify opportunities to hedge their positions or limit their exposure to particular risks. For example, if a trader holds a portfolio of cryptocurrencies that are highly correlated with each other, they may be at greater risk of losses if the market moves against them. By diversifying their portfolio with assets that are less correlated with each other, they can reduce their overall risk.
Some of the unique properties for this specific script are the correlation strength levels in conjunction with the color gradient of cells, intended for clearer readability.
Features:
Supports up to 64 different crypto assets.
Dark/Light mode.
Correlation strength levels and cell coloring.
Adjustable positioning on the chart.
Alerts at the close of a bar. (Daily timeframe or higher recommended)

Reverse Repo CorrelationReverse Repo Correlation Indicator
This TradingView indicator calculates the correlation between the current stock's close price and the value of the Reverse Repo Rate (`RRPONTSYD`). It uses the Pearson correlation coefficient to measure the strength and direction of the relationship.
Inputs
- **Correlation Length**: The number of bars used to calculate the correlation.
- **Background Transparency**: The transparency level (0-100) for the background color indicating positive or negative correlation.
### How it works
1. The indicator retrieves the close price of the current stock and assigns it to the `stockClose` variable.
2. The **Correlation Length** input determines the number of bars used to calculate the correlation.
3. The `pearson_corr` function calculates the Pearson correlation between the `stockClose` and `rrpontsydValue` variables over the specified length.
4. The `rrpontsydValue` is retrieved using the `request.economic` function, which fetches the Reverse Repo Rate value (`RRPONTSYD`) for the "US" economic calendar.
5. The correlation value is plotted on the chart as a line, with positive correlations displayed in green and negative correlations in red.
6. The **Background Transparency** input determines the transparency level of the background color, which changes based on the correlation value. Positive correlations have a green background, while negative correlations have a red background.
Adjust the `correlationLength` and `transparency` inputs as needed.
Cross Period Comparison IndicatorReally excited to be sharing this indicator!
This is the cross-period comparison indicator, AKA the comparison indicator.
What does it do?
The cross-period comparison indicator permits for the qualitative assessment of two points in time on a particular equity.
What is its use?
At first, I was looking for a way to determine the degree of similarity between two points, such as using Cosine similarity values, Euclidean distances, etc. However, these tend to trigger a lot of similarities but without really any context. Context matters in trading and thus what I wanted really was a qualitative assessment tool to see what exactly was happening at two points in time (i.e. How many buyers were there? What was short interest like? What was volume like? What was the volatility like? RSI? Etc.)
This indicator permits that qualitative assessment, displaying things like total buying volume during each period, total selling volume, short interest via Put to Call ratio activity, technical information such as Stochastics and RSI, etc.
How to use it?
The indicator is fairly self explanatory, but some things require a little more in-depth discussion.
The indicator will display the Max and Min technical values of a period, as well as a breakdown in the volume information and put to call information. The user can then make the qualitative determination of degrees of similarity. However, I have included some key things to help ascertain similarity in a more quantitative way. These include:
1. Adding average period Z-Score
2. Adding CDF probability distributions for each respective period
3. Adding Pearson correlations for each respective period over time
4. Providing the linear regression equation for each period
So let us discuss these 4 quantitative measures a bit more in-depth.
Adding Period Z-Score
For those who do not know, Z-Score is a measure of the distance from a mean. It generally spans 0 (at the mean) to 3 (3 standard deviations away from the mean). Z-Score in the stock market is very powerful because it is actually our indicator of volatility. Z-Score forms the basis of IV for option traders and it generally is the go to, to see where the market is in relation to its overall mean.
Adding Z-Score lets the user make 2 big determinations. First and foremost, it’s a measure of overall volatility during the period. If you are getting a Z-Score that is crazy high (1.5 or greater), you know there was a lot of volatility in that period marked by frequent deviations from its mean (since on average it was trading 1.5 standard deviations away from its mean).
The other thing it tells you is the overall sentiment of that time. If the average Z Score was 1.5 for example, we know that buying interest was high and the sentiment was somewhat optimistic, as the stock was trading, on average, + 1.5 SDs away from its mean.
If, on the other hand, the average was, say, - 1.2, then we know the sentiment was overall pessimistic. There was frequent selling and the stock was frequently being pushed below its mean with heavy selling pressure.
We can also check these assumptions of buying / selling buy verifying the volume information. The indicator will list the Buy to Sell Ratio (number of Buyers to Sellers), as well as the total selling volume and total buying volume. Thus, the user can see, objectively, whether sellers or buyers led a particular period.
Adding CDF Probability
CDF probabilities simply mean the extent a stock traded above or below its normal distribution levels.
To help you understand this, the indicator lists the average close price for a period. Directly below that, it lists the CDF probabilities. What this is telling you, is how often and how likely, during that period, the stock was trading below its average. For example, in the main chart, the average close price for BTC in Period A is 29869. The CDF probability is 0.51. This means, during Period A, 51% of the time, BTC was trading BELOW 29869. Thus, the other 49% of the time it was trading ABOVE 29869.
CDF probabilities also help us to assess volatility, similar to Z-Score. Generally speaking, the CDF should consistently be reading about 0.50 to 0.51. This is the point of an average value, half the values should be above the average and half the values should be below. But in times of heightened volatility, you may actually see the CDF creep up to 0.54 or higher, or 0.48 or lower. This means that there was extremely extensive volatility and is very indicative of true “whipsaw” type price action history where a stock refuses to average itself out in one general area and frequently jumps up and down.
Adding Pearson Correlation
Most know what this is, but just in case, the Pearson correlation is a measure of statistical significance. It ranges from 0 (not significant) to 1 (very significant). It can be positive or negative. A positive signifies a positive relationship (i.e. as one value increases so too does the other value being compared). If it is a negative value, it means an inverse relationship (i.e. one value increases proportionately to the other’s decline).
In this indicator, the Pearson correlation is measured against time. A strong positive relationship (a value of 0.5 or greater) indicates that the stock is trading positive to time. As time goes by, the stock goes up. This is a normal relationship and signifies a healthy uptrend.
Inversely, if the Pearson correlation is negative, it means that as time increases, the stock is going down proportionately. This signifies a strong downtrend.
This is another way for the user to interpret sentiment during a specific period.
IF the Pearson correlation is less than 0.5 or -0.5, this signifies an area of indecision. No real trend formed and there was no real strong relationship to time.
Adding Linear Regression Equation
A linear regression equation is simply the slope and the intercept. It is expressed with the formula y= mx + b.
The indicator does a regression analysis on each period and presents this formula accordingly. The user can see the slope and intercept.
Generally speaking, when two periods share the same slope (m value) but different intercept (b value), it can be said that the relationship to time is identical but the starting point is different.
If the slope and intercept are different, as you see in the BTC chart above, it represents a completely different relationship to time and trajectory.
Indicator Specific Information:
The indicator retains the customizability you would expect. You can customize all of your lengths for technical, change and Z-Score. You can toggle on or off Period data, if you want to focus on a single period. You can also toggle on a difference table that directly compares the % difference between Period A to Period B (see image below):
You will also see on the input menu a input for “Threshold” assessments. This simply modifies the threshold parameters for the technical readings. It is defaulted to 3, which means when two technical (for example Max Stochastics) are within +/- 3 of each other, the indicator will light these up as green to indicate similarities. They just clue the user visually to areas where there are similarities amongst the qualitative technical data.
Timeframes
This is best used on the daily timeframe. You can use it on the smaller timeframe but the processing time may take a bit longer. I personally like it for the Daily, Weekly and 4 hour charts.
And this is the indicator in a nutshell!
I will provide a tutorial video in the coming day on how to use it, so check back later!
As always, leave your comments/questions and suggestions below. I have been slowly modifying stuff based on user suggestions so please keep them coming but be patient as it does take some time and I am by no means a coder or expert on this stuff.
Safe trades to all!
Rate of DeviationThe Rate of Deviation indicator calculates and displays the amount the current price varies above or below the average price over Length bars. A deviation value greater than the base level indicates that the current price is higher than the price average while a deviation less than the base level indicates that the current price is lower than the price average.

Grid Spot Trading Algorithm V2 - The Quant ScienceGrid Spot Trading Algorithm V2 is the last grid trading algorithm made by our developer team.
Grid Spot Trading Algorithm V2 is a fixed 10-level grid trading algorithm. The grid is divided into an accumulation area (red) and a selling area (green).
In the accumulation area, the algorithm will place new buy orders, selling the long positions on the top of the grid.
BUYING AND SELLING LOGIC
The algorithm places up to 5 limit orders on the accumulation section of the grid, each time the price cross through the middle grid. Each single order uses 20% of the equity.
Positions are closed at the top of the grid by default, with the algorithm closing all orders at the first sell level. The exit level can be adjusted using the user interface, from the first level up to the fifth level above.
CONFIGURING THE ALGORITHM
1) Add it to the chart: Add the script to the current chart that you want to analyze.
2) Select the top of the grid: Confirm a price level with the mouse on which to fix the top of the grid.
3) Select the bottom of the grid: Confirm a price level with the mouse on which to fix the bottom of the grid.
4) Wait for the automatic creation of the grid.
USING THE ALGORITHM
Once the grid configuration process is completed, the algorithm will generate automatic backtesting.
You can add a stop loss that destroys the grid by setting the destruction price and activating the feature from the user interface. When the stop loss is activated, you can view it on the chart.
[MAD] Position starter & calculatorThe tool you're using is a financial instrument trading planner and analyzer.
Here is how to use it:
Trade Planning: You can plan your trade entries and exits, calculating potential profits, losses, and their ratio (P/L ratio).
You can define up to five target closing prices with varying volumes, which can be individually activated or deactivated (volume set to 0%).
Risk Management: There's a stop-loss function to calculate and limit potential losses.
Additionally, it includes a liquidation pre-calculation for adjustable leverages and position maintenance(subject to exchange variation).
Customization: You can customize the tool's appearance with five adjustable color schemes, light and dark.
-----------------
Initiation: This tool functions as an indicator.
To start, add it as an indicator.
Once added, you can close the indicator window.
Now wait, till you'll see a blue box at the bottom of the input window.
Parameter Input:
Enter your parameters (SL, box left, box right, TP1, TP2, TP3, TP4, TP5) in the direction of the desired trade.
Click from top to bottom for a short trade or bottom to top for a long trade.
Adjustment: If you want to move the box in the future, adjust the times in the indicator settings directly as click input is not yet platform-supported.
This tool functions as a ruler and doesn't offer alerts (for now).
Here is another examples of how to set up a Position-calculation but here for a short:

See inside Candles: Directionality %; Constituent Bars & GapsSee inside candles based on user-input LTF setting: get data on 'Directionality' of your candle; Gaps (total and Sum; UP and DOWN); Number of Bull or Bear constituent candles
//Features:
-DIRECTIONALITY: compare length of the 'zig-zag' random walk of lower time frame constituent candles, to the full height of the current candle. Resulting % I refer to as 'directionality'.
-GAPs: what i refer to as 'gaps' are also known as Volume imbalances: the gap between previous candles close and current candle's open (if there is one).
--Gaps total (up vs down gaps). Number of Up gaps printed above bar in green, down gaps printed below bar in red.
--Gaps Sum (total summed UP gap, total summed down gaps. Sum of Up gaps printed above bar in green, Sum of down gaps printed below bar in red.
-Candles Total: Numer of LTF up vs down candles within current timeframe candle. Number of up candles printed above bar in green, Number of down candles printed below bar in red.
//USAGE:
-Primary purpose in this was the Directionality aspect. Wanted to get a measure of how choppy vs how directional the internals of a candle were. Idea being that a candle with high % directionality (approaching 100) would imply trending conditions; while a candle which was large range and full bodies but had a low % directionality would imply the internals were back-and-forth and => rebalanced, potentially indicating price may not need to retrace back into it and rebalance further. All rather experimental, please treat it as such: have a play around with it.
-Number of gaps, Sums of up and down gaps, ratio of up and down constituent candles also intended to serve a similar purpose as the above.
-Set the input lower timeframe; this must obviously be lower then your current timeframe. You will significant differences in results depending on the ratio your timeframes (chart timeframe vs user-input timeframe).
//User Inputs:
-Lower timeframe input (setting child candle size within current chart parent candle).
-Choose function from the four listed above.
-typical formating options: Bull color/bear color txt for gaps functions.
-display % unit or not.
-display vertical or horizontal text.
-Set min / max directionality thresholds; and color code results.
-Toggle on/off 'hide results outside of threshold' to declutter the chart.
-choose label style.
//NOTES:
-Directionality thresholds can be set manually; Max and Min thresholds can be set to filter out 'non-extreme' readings.
-Note that directionality % can sometimes exceed 100%, in cases where price trends very strongly and gaps up continuously such that sum of constituent candles is less than total range of parent candle.
-Personally i like the idea of seeking bold, large-range, full bodied candles, with a lower than typical directionality %; indicating that a price move is both significant and it's already done it's rebalancing; I would see this as potentially favourable for continuation (obviously depending on context).
---- Showcase of the other functions beyond Directionality percentage ----

SPX ES SpreadA very simple indicator to display the spread between ES and SPX. The table by default displays in the upper right corner of the chart. If you are on the chart for SPX, it will show the current price of ES, as well as the difference in points between the two. Similarly, if on the chart for ES, it will show the price for SPX as well as the difference in points between the two. The table does not appear at all if the chart symbol is anything other than ES or SPX. The specific symbols used can be defined by the user.

The script is densly commented in order to make it understandable. here is the outline of the script:
1. Inputs that can be received through the indicator() function
2. 12 possible types of input
3. Input() function arguments: defval - title - tooltip - inline - group - confirm
4. The different display of tooltip when inputs are inline
5. Multiple price and time inputs (on single request or multiple requests)
6. What happens when title argument is not specified
7. References and key points from them
Expected VolatilityExpected Volatility
Hello and welcome to my first indicator! I'm publishing this indicator as free to use and modify because I think it's a great place to learn and I hope I can teach you something.
There are some terms which you need to understand before I begin explaining this indicator and what it does for you:
Daily Settlement - The price at which a market closes when the trading day closes (RTH or Regular Trading Hours close)
Standard Deviation - A measure in statistics that declares how far away a data point is from the mean when compared with all the data points before it to an extent
Now for the history behind this indicator:
Rule of 16. This goes back to the VIX, or S&P 500 volatility index. The idea behind the volatility index is to determine what magnitude of movement could be expected from the market the following day based on recent movement. The rule of 16 is an easier way to refer to the square root of the number of trading days in a year. There are 252 trading days in a year and the square root of 252 is approximately 15.87. We estimate it to be 16 because it's easier to talk about when it's easier to say and therefore easier to remember.
The relevance of this rule is that when the VIX is at 16, we can expect a market movement of 1% or so unless some special circumstances overrule this estimate. To get the expected market movement, we take 16 and divide by 16 and get 1, or 1%. If the VIX is trading at 24, we get 24/16 or 1.5 which is 1.5% movement. This indicator seeks to simplify the math and lay it out in a visual way to show the highest probability of range the market is expected to trade.
Thanks for taking the time to read my description, I hope you like my indicator.
Special thanks to my trading friends and coaches for helping me complete this indicator.
Manual PnL (Profit and Loss) % Tracker - spot long only
This is a manual profit and loss tracker. It takes the user's manual input of total cost and quantity, and then outputs a table on the bottom right of the chart showing the profit or loss %, average purchase price, gross profit or loss, and market value.
Instructions:
1. Double click the indicator title at the top left of the chart
2. Select the "Inputs" tab and click the empty field next to "Symbol" to enter the traded symbol+exchange. This entry MUST be the same as the chart you are on, for example BTCUSDT/BINANCE (indicator will not display otherwise)
3. Enter the Total Cost and Qty of shares/coins owned
4. Optional - change positive or negative colors
5. Optional - under the "Style" tab, change the color of the average price (AVG) line
Note that for the average price (AVG) line to be shown/hidden you must enable/disable "Indicator and financials labels" in the scales settings.
For crypto or other tickers that have prices in many decimal places I would suggest, for the sake of accuracy, adjusting the decimal places in the code so that for prices under $1 you will display more info.
For example let's say you purchase x number of crypto at a price of 0.031558 you should change the code displaying "0.00" on line 44 to "0.000000"
This will ensure that the output table and plotted line will calculate an average price with the same number of decimals.
Monte Carlo Price ProbabilitiesMonte Carlo simulations have been a popular tool in the world of finance, risk analysis, and decision making for decades. In this post, I will take you through the history of Monte Carlo simulations and explain how I implemented this powerful technique in Pine Script. This implementation can help traders and investors in various time frames to better understand the potential future price movements of financial instruments based on historical data.
History of Monte Carlo Simulations
The Monte Carlo method was named after the famous Monte Carlo Casino in Monaco, as the technique involves using random sampling to approximate solutions to mathematical problems. The method was first introduced by Stanislaw Ulam, a mathematician working on the Manhattan Project in the 1940s. Ulam realized that using random sampling could provide approximate solutions to complex problems that were otherwise difficult or impossible to solve analytically.
Over the years, Monte Carlo simulations have found applications in various fields, including physics, engineering, and finance. In the world of finance, the method has been used to model stock price movements, option pricing, portfolio optimization, and risk management.
Implementation in Pine
In my implementation of Monte Carlo simulations in Pine, I created a script that allows users to input several parameters such as the arbitrary price, number of simulations, number of steps into the future, and the start bar index. The start bar index is a crucial setting for running the script on lower time frames, as it helps to ensure that the script runs smoothly for a given symbol.
The script then calculates the log return of each bar and categorizes them into green (positive) or red (negative) moves. It uses these historical price movements to calculate the probabilities of future price movements for each step in the simulation.
The core of the Monte Carlo simulation lies in the `monte()` function, which generates random numbers to determine if the next price movement will be green or red, and then selects a move size based on its probability. The `sim()` function runs multiple simulations using the `monte()` function and stores the results in an array.
Finally, the script calculates the probability of the arbitrary price being reached in the future based on the results of the simulations. It also plots the probability on the chart, allowing users to visually assess the potential future price movements of the financial instrument.
Using the Monte Carlo Simulation
To use the Monte Carlo simulation in Pine, you need to input the desired parameters such as the arbitrary price, number of simulations, number of steps into the future, and the start bar index. For some symbols, you may need to set the start bar index to around 10k to ensure that the script runs smoothly.
Once you have input the parameters and run the script, you will see the probability of reaching the arbitrary price plotted on the chart. This can provide a valuable insight into the potential future price movements of the financial instrument based on historical data, helping you make more informed trading and investment decisions.
Conclusion
Monte Carlo simulations have a rich history and have proven to be a valuable tool in various fields, including finance. My implementation of Monte Carlo simulations in Pine allows traders and investors to better understand the potential future price movements of financial instruments in various time frames. By evaluating the probabilities of reaching specific price levels, users can make more informed decisions and better manage their risk.

[MiV] Trading SessionHello, everyone!
Today I want to present my new script, which I hope will help not only me!
I'm sure that many people, like me, went through such a stage as "building their strategy". This is when you sit and test on the history how you would enter or exit a trade.
Recently I was doing the same thing and realized that my "tests" involve night time, when in reality I would be asleep and not trading! So I decided to create an indicator that would display my "working hours" so that the backtest I conduct would be as realistic as possible.
Also this indicator is able to display sessions of major exchanges and forex working hours, so it will be useful not only for cryptocurrency lovers.
In addition, we don't always trade every day and, for example, I don't trade on Sunday. That's why we added a feature that "turns off" the day and does not highlight it in color if you're not planning to trade on that day.
And finally, I added a notification of the beginning and end of the trading session. A small thing, but it may also be a useful feature for those who like to sit at the chart!
I will be glad to receive any comments and suggestions!

Всем привет!
Хочу сегодня представить свой новый скрипт, который, надеюсь, поможет не только мне!
Уверен, что многие, как и я, проходили такой этап как "постройка своей стратегии". Это когда ты сидишь и тестируешь на истории то как бы ты входил или выходил из сделки.
Вот недавно я ровно также занимался этим и осознал, что мои "тесты" затрагивают и ночное время, когда в реальности я бы спал и не торговал! Поэтому я решил создать индикатор, который будет отображать мои "рабочие часы", чтобы бектест, который я провожу, был максимально реалистичным.
Также данный индикатор умеет отображать сессии крупных бирж и время работы форекса, так что полезным он будет не только для любителей криптовалюты.
Кроме того, мы же не всегда торгуем каждый день и например я не торгую в воскресенье. Поэтому добавлен функционал, который "выключает" день и не подсвечивает его цветом, если ты в этот день не планируешь торговать.
Ну и в заключении, добавил уведомление о начале и завершении торговой сессии. Мелочь, а тоже может быть полезной фичей для тех кто любит засесть за графиком!
Буду рад любым замечаниям и предложениям!
Gaussian Fisher Transform Price Reversals - FTRHello Traders !
Looking for better trading results ?
"This indicator shows you how to identify price reversals in a timely manner." John F. Ehlers
Introduction :
The Gaussian Fisher Transform Price Reversals indicator, dubbed FTR for short, is a stat based price reversal detection indicator inspired by and based on the work of the electrical engineer now private trader John F. Ehlers.
The Fisher Transform :
It is a common assumption that prices have a gaussian / normal probability density function(PDF), i.e. a sample of n close prices would be normally distributed if the probability of observing a price value say at any given standard deviation range is equal to that probability in the case of the normal distribution, e.g. 68% off all samples fell within one standard deviation around the mean, which is what we would expect if the data was normal.
However Price Action is not normally distributed and thus can not be conventionally interpreted in this way, Formally the Fisher Transform, transforms the distribution of bounded ranging price action (were price action takes values in a range from -1 to 1) into that of a normal distribution, alternatively it may be said the Fisher Transform changes the PDF of any waveform so that the transformed output has n approximately Gaussian PDF, It does so through the following equations. taken directly from the work of John F. Ehlers - Using The Fisher Transform
By substituting price data in the above formulas, bounded ranging price actions (over a given user defined period lookback - this determines the range price ranges in, see the Intermediate formula above) distribution is transformed to that in the normal case. This means when the input, the Intermediate ,(the Midpoint - see formula above) approaches either limit within the range the outputs are greatly amplified, this amplification accentuates /puts more weight on the larger deviations or limits within the range, conversely when price action is varying round the mean of the range the output is approximately equal to unity (the input is approximately equal to the input, the intermediate)
The inputs (Intermediates) are converted to normal outputs and the nonlinear Transfer of the Fisher Transform with varying senesitivity's (gammas) can be seen in the graph / image above. Although sensitivity adjustments are not currently available in this script (I forgot to add it) the outputs may be greatly amplified as gamma (the coefficient of the Fisher Transformation - see Fish equation) approaches 1. the purple line show this graphically, as a higher gamma leads to a greater amplification than in the standard case (the red line which is the standard fisher transformation, the black plot is the Fish with a gamma of 1, which is unity sensativity)
Reversal plots and Breakouts :
- Support lines are plotted with their corresponding Fish value when there is a crossover of the Fish and Fish SMA <= a given standard deviation of Fish
- Resistance lines are plotted with their corresponding Fish value when there is a crossunder of the Fish and Fish SMA >= a given standard deviation of Fish
- Reversals are these support and resistance line plots
Breakouts and Volume bars :
Breakouts cause the reversal lines to break (when the high/low is above the resistance/support), Breakouts are more "high quality" when they occur conditional on high volume, the highlighted bars represent volume standard deviations ranging from -3 to 3. When breakouts occure on high volume this may be a sign of the continutaion of the trend (reversals would signify the start of a new trend).
Hope you enjoy, Happy Trading !
(be sure to rocket the script if you liked it, this helps me know which of my scripts are the most useful)
