Consider additional confirmation from price action or other indicators
Note: This indicator combines trend and momentum analysis but should be used as part of a complete trading strategy that includes proper risk management.
SMI Ergodic Indicator/Oscillator▮ Introduction
The Stochastic Momentum Index Ergodic Indicator (SMII) is a technical analysis tool designed to predict trend reversals in the price of an asset.
It functions as a momentum oscillator, measuring the ratio of the smoothed price change to the smoothed absolute price change over a given number of previous periods.
The Ergodic SMI is based on the True Strength Index (TSI) and integrates a signal line, which is an exponential moving average (EMA) of the SMI indicator itself.
It provides a clearer picture of market trends than the traditional stochastic oscillator by incorporating the concept of "ergodicity", which helps remove market noise.
On ther other hand, the Stochastic Momentum Index Ergodic Oscillator (SMIO) is a histogram that measures the difference between TSI and it's signal line.
By default, in TradingView both SMII and SMIO are provided independently.
Here in this script these two indicators are combined, providing a more comprehensive view of price direction and market strength.
▮ Motivation: why another indicator?
The intrinsic value of this indicator lies in the fact that it allows fine adjustments in both calculation parameters, data source and visualization, features that are not present in the standard indicators or similar.
Also, trend lines breakouts and divergences detector were added.
▮ What to look for
When using the indicator, there are a few things to look out for.
First, look at the SMI signal line.
When the line crosses above -40, it is considered a buy signal, while the crossing below +40 is considered a sell signal.
Also, pay attention to divergences between the SMI and the price.
If price is rising but the SMI is showing negative divergence, it could indicate that momentum is waning and a reversal could be in the offing.
Likewise, if price is falling but the SMI is showing positive divergence, this could indicate that momentum is building and a reversal could also be in the offing.
Divergences can be considered in both indicator and/or histogram.
Examples:
▮ Notes
The indicator presented here offers both the "SMII" and the "SMIO", that is, the "Stochastic Momentum Index Ergodic Indicator" together with the "Stochastic Momentum Index Ergodic Oscillator" (histogram), as per the documentation described in reference links.
So it is important to highlight the differences in relation to my other indicator, Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) Refurbished .
This last one is purely based on the **SMI**, which is implemented using smoothed ratio between the relative range and the high/low range.
Although they may seem the same in some situations, the calculation is actually different. The TSI tends to be more responsive at the expense of being noisier, while the SMI tends to be smoother. Which of these two indicators is best depends on the situation, the context, and the analyst's personal preference.

Stochastic RMIThe Relative Momentum Index (RMI) is a technical analysis indicator used to analyze the price movements of assets in a financial market. Similar to the RSI (Relative Strength Index), it helps measure the momentum and strength of the asset's price movements over the recent period. However, the RMI offers a "smoother" view, unlike the RSI. This means that there is less "noise" in the indicator.
As is known, the Stochastic RSI indicator is based on the RSI. What I did was to create a stochastic based on the RMI. If you compare this indicator with the "Stochastic RSI", you will see that there is no difference between them, except that the "Stochastic RMI" is more "smooth" and noiseless.
SMI Ergodic Indicator/Oscillator of Money Flow Index▮ Introduction
The Stochastic Momentum Index Ergodic (SMII) indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to predict trend reversals in the price of an asset.
It functions as a momentum oscillator, measuring the ratio of the smoothed price change to the smoothed absolute price change over a given number of previous periods.
The Ergodic SMI is based on the True Strength Index (TSI) and integrates a signal line, which is an exponential moving average (EMA) of the SMI indicator itself.
The Ergodic SMI oscillator provides a clearer picture of market trends than the traditional stochastic oscillator by incorporating the concept of 'ergodicity', which helps remove market noise.
On ther other hand, MFI (Money Flow Index) is a technical analysis indicator used to measure the inflow of money into an asset and thus help identify buying and selling pressure in a given financial instrument.
When these two indicators are combined, they can provide a more comprehensive view of price direction and market strength.
▮ Motivation: why another indicator?
By combining SMII with MFI, we can gain even more insights into the market.
One way to do this is to use the MFI as an input to the SMII, rather than just using price.
This means we are measuring momentum based on buying and selling pressure rather than just price.
Furthermore, there is the possibility of making several fine adjustments to both the calculation and visualization parameters that are not present in other indicators.
▮ What to look for
When using the SMII MFI indicator, there are a few things to look out for.
First, look at the SMII signal line.
When the line crosses above -40, it is considered a buy signal, while the crossing below +40 is considered a sell signal.
Also, pay attention to divergences between the SMII and the price.
If price is rising but the SMII is showing negative divergence, it could indicate that momentum is waning and a reversal could be in the offing.
Likewise, if price is falling but the SMII is showing positive divergence, this could indicate that momentum is building and a reversal could also be in the offing.
Divergences can be considered in both indicator and/or histogram.

Adaptive RSI-Stoch with Butterworth Filter [UAlgo]The Adaptive RSI-Stoch with Butterworth Filter is a technical indicator designed to combine the strengths of the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Stochastic Oscillator, and a Butterworth Filter to provide a smooth and adaptive momentum-based trading signal. This custom-built indicator leverages the RSI to measure market momentum, applies Stochastic calculations for overbought/oversold conditions, and incorporates a Butterworth Filter to reduce noise and smooth out price movements for enhanced signal reliability.
By utilizing these combined methods, this indicator aims to help traders identify potential market reversal points, momentum shifts, and overbought/oversold conditions with greater precision, while minimizing false signals in volatile markets.
🔶 Key Features
Adaptive RSI and Stochastic Oscillator: Calculates RSI using a configurable period and applies a dual-smoothing mechanism with Stochastic Oscillator values (K and D lines).
Helps in identifying momentum strength and potential trend reversals.
Butterworth Filter: An advanced signal processing filter that reduces noise and smooths out the indicator values for better trend identification.
The filter can be enabled or disabled based on user preferences.
Customizable Parameters: Flexibility to adjust the length of RSI, the smoothing factors for Stochastic (K and D values), and the Butterworth Filter period.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
RSI & Stochastic Calculations:
The RSI is calculated based on the closing price over the user-defined period, and further smoothed to generate Stochastic Oscillator values.
The K and D values of the Stochastic Oscillator provide insights into short-term overbought or oversold conditions.
Butterworth Filter Application:
What is Butterworth Filter and How It Works?
The Butterworth Filter is a type of signal processing filter that is designed to have a maximally flat frequency response in the passband, meaning it doesn’t distort the frequency components of the signal within the desired range. It is widely used in digital signal processing and technical analysis to smooth noisy data while preserving the important trends in the underlying data. In this indicator, the Butterworth Filter is applied to the trigger value, making the resulting signal smoother and more stable by filtering out short-term fluctuations or noise in price data.
Key Concepts Behind the Butterworth Filter:
Filter Design: The Butterworth filter works by calculating weighted averages of current and past inputs (price or indicator values) and outputs to produce a smooth output. It is characterized by the absence of ripple in the passband and a smooth roll-off after the cutoff frequency.
Cutoff Frequency: The period specified in the indicator acts as a control for the cutoff frequency. A higher period means the filter will remove more high-frequency noise and retain longer-term trends, while a lower period means it will respond more to short-term fluctuations in the data.
Smoothing Process: In this script, the Butterworth Filter is calculated recursively using the following formula,
butterworth_filter(series float input, int period) =>
float wc = math.tan(math.pi / period)
float k1 = 1.414 * wc
float k2 = wc * wc
float a0 = k2 / (1 + k1 + k2)
float a1 = 2 * a0
float a2 = a0
float b1 = 2 * (k2 - 1) / (1 + k1 + k2)
float b2 = (1 - k1 + k2) / (1 + k1 + k2)
wc: This is the angular frequency, derived from the period input.
k1 and k2: These are intermediate coefficients used in the filter calculation.
a0, a1, a2: These are the feedforward coefficients, which determine how much of the current and past input values will contribute to the filtered output.
b1, b2: These are feedback coefficients, which determine how much of the past output values will contribute to the current output, effectively allowing the filter to "remember" past behavior and smooth the signal.
Recursive Calculation: The filter operates by taking into account not only the current input value but also the previous two input values and the previous two output values. This recursive nature helps it smooth the signal by blending the recent past data with the current data.
float filtered_value = a0 * input + a1 * prev_input1 + a2 * prev_input2
filtered_value -= b1 * prev_output1 + b2 * prev_output2
input: The current input value, which could be the trigger value in this case.
prev_input1, prev_input2: The previous two input values.
prev_output1, prev_output2: The previous two output values.
This means the current filtered value is determined by the combination of:
A weighted sum of the current input and the last two inputs.
A correction based on the last two output values to ensure smoothness and remove noise.
In conclusion when filter is enabled, the Butterworth Filter smooths the RSI and Stochastic values to reduce market noise and highlight significant momentum shifts.
The filtered trigger value (post-Butterworth) provides a cleaner representation of the market's momentum.
Cross Signals for Trade Entries:
Buy Signal: A bullish crossover of the K value above the D value, particularly when the values are below 40 and when the Stochastic trigger is below 1 and the filtered trigger is below 35.
Sell Signal: A bearish crossunder of the K value below the D value, particularly when the values are above 60 and when the Stochastic trigger is above 99 and the filtered trigger is above 90.
These signals are plotted visually on the chart for easy identification of potential trading opportunities.
Overbought and Oversold Zones:
The indicator highlights the overbought zone when the filtered trigger surpasses a specific threshold (typically above 100) and the oversold zone when it drops below 0.
The color-coded fill areas between the Stochastic and trigger lines help visualize when the market may be overbought (likely a reversal down) or oversold (potential reversal up).

RSI Trend Following StrategyOverview
The RSI Trend Following Strategy utilizes Relative Strength Index (RSI) to enter the trade for the potential trend continuation. It uses Stochastic indicator to check is the price is not in overbought territory and the MACD to measure the current price momentum. Moreover, it uses the 200-period EMA to filter the counter trend trades with the higher probability. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Two layers trade filtering system: Strategy utilizes MACD and Stochastic indicators measure the current momentum and overbought condition and use 200-period EMA to filter trades against major trend.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level script activates the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Wide opportunities for strategy optimization: Flexible strategy settings allows users to optimize the strategy entries and exits for chosen trading pair and time frame.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
RSI is above 50 level.
MACD line shall be above the signal line
Both lines of Stochastic shall be not higher than 80 (overbought territory)
Candle’s low shall be above the 200 period EMA
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with trailing EMA(by default = 20 period). If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.75)
ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level (by default = 2.25)
MACD Fast Length (by default = 12, period of averaging fast MACD line)
MACD Fast Length (by default = 26, period of averaging slow MACD line)
MACD Signal Smoothing (by default = 9, period of smoothing MACD signal line)
Oscillator MA Type (by default = EMA, available options: SMA, EMA)
Signal Line MA Type (by default = EMA, available options: SMA, EMA)
RSI Length (by default = 14, period for RSI calculation)
Trailing EMA Length (by default = 20, period for EMA, which shall be broken close the trade after trailing profit activation)
Justification of Methodology
This trading strategy is designed to leverage a combination of technical indicators—Relative Strength Index (RSI), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), Stochastic Oscillator, and the 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA)—to determine optimal entry points for long trades. Additionally, the strategy uses the Average True Range (ATR) for dynamic risk management to adapt to varying market conditions. Let's look in details for which purpose each indicator is used for and why it is used in this combination.
Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis to measure the speed and change of price movements in a financial market. It helps traders identify whether an asset is potentially overbought (overvalued) or oversold (undervalued), which can indicate a potential reversal or continuation of the current trend.
How RSI Works? RSI tracks the strength of recent price changes. It compares the average gains and losses over a specific period (usually 14 periods) to assess the momentum of an asset. Average gain is the average of all positive price changes over the chosen period. It reflects how much the price has typically increased during upward movements. Average loss is the average of all negative price changes over the same period. It reflects how much the price has typically decreased during downward movements.
RSI calculates these average gains and losses and compares them to create a value between 0 and 100. If the RSI value is above 70, the asset is generally considered overbought, meaning it might be due for a price correction or reversal downward. Conversely, if the RSI value is below 30, the asset is considered oversold, suggesting it could be poised for an upward reversal or recovery. RSI is a useful tool for traders to determine market conditions and make informed decisions about entering or exiting trades based on the perceived strength or weakness of an asset's price movements.
This strategy uses RSI as a short-term trend approximation. If RSI crosses over 50 it means that there is a high probability of short-term trend change from downtrend to uptrend. Therefore RSI above 50 is our first trend filter to look for a long position.
The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a popular momentum and trend-following indicator used in technical analysis. It helps traders identify changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in an asset's price.
The MACD consists of three components:
MACD Line: This is the difference between a short-term Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a long-term EMA, typically calculated as: MACD Line = 12 period EMA − 26 period EMA
Signal Line: This is a 9-period EMA of the MACD Line, which helps to identify buy or sell signals. When the MACD Line crosses above the Signal Line, it can be a bullish signal (suggesting a buy); when it crosses below, it can be a bearish signal (suggesting a sell).
Histogram: The histogram shows the difference between the MACD Line and the Signal Line, visually representing the momentum of the trend. Positive histogram values indicate increasing bullish momentum, while negative values indicate increasing bearish momentum.
This strategy uses MACD as a second short-term trend filter. When MACD line crossed over the signal line there is a high probability that uptrend has been started. Therefore MACD line above signal line is our additional short-term trend filter. In conjunction with RSI it decreases probability of following false trend change signals.
The Stochastic Indicator is a momentum oscillator that compares a security's closing price to its price range over a specific period. It's used to identify overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator ranges from 0 to 100, with readings above 80 indicating overbought conditions and readings below 20 indicating oversold conditions.
It consists of two lines:
%K: The main line, calculated using the formula (CurrentClose−LowestLow)/(HighestHigh−LowestLow)×100 . Highest and lowest price taken for 14 periods.
%D: A smoothed moving average of %K, often used as a signal line.
This strategy uses stochastic to define the overbought conditions. The logic here is the following: we want to avoid long trades in the overbought territory, because when indicator reaches it there is a high probability that the potential move is gonna be restricted.
The 200-period EMA is a widely recognized indicator for identifying the long-term trend direction. The strategy only trades in the direction of this primary trend to increase the probability of successful trades. For instance, when the price is above the 200 EMA, only long trades are considered, aligning with the overarching trend direction.
Therefore, strategy uses combination of RSI and MACD to increase the probability that price now is in short-term uptrend, Stochastic helps to avoid the trades in the overbought (>80) territory. To increase the probability of opening long trades in the direction of a main trend and avoid local bounces we use 200 period EMA.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements.

MACD with 1D Stochastic Confirmation Reversal StrategyOverview
The MACD with 1D Stochastic Confirmation Reversal Strategy utilizes MACD indicator in conjunction with 1 day timeframe Stochastic indicators to obtain the high probability short-term trend reversal signals. The main idea is to wait until MACD line crosses up it’s signal line, at the same time Stochastic indicator on 1D time frame shall show the uptrend (will be discussed in methodology) and not to be in the oversold territory. Strategy works on time frames from 30 min to 4 hours and opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Higher time frame confirmation: Strategy utilizes 1D Stochastic to establish the major trend and confirm the local reversals with the higher probability.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level scrip activate the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
MACD line of MACD indicator shall cross over the signal line of MACD indicator.
1D time frame Stochastic’s K line shall be above the D line.
1D time frame Stochastic’s K line value shall be below 80 (not overbought)
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with EMA. If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 3.25, value multiplied by ATR to be subtracted from position entry price to setup stop loss)
ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level (by default = 4.25, value multiplied by ATR to be added to position entry price to setup trailing profit activation level)
Trailing EMA Length (by default = 20, period for EMA, when price reached trailing profit activation level EMA will stop out of position if price closes below it)
User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart, in our example we use default settings.
Justification of Methodology
This strategy leverages 2 time frames analysis to have the high probability reversal setups on lower time frame in the direction of the 1D time frame trend. That’s why it’s recommended to use this strategy on 30 min – 4 hours time frames.
To have an approximation of 1D time frame trend strategy utilizes classical Stochastic indicator. The Stochastic Indicator is a momentum oscillator that compares a security's closing price to its price range over a specific period. It's used to identify overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator ranges from 0 to 100, with readings above 80 indicating overbought conditions and readings below 20 indicating oversold conditions.
It consists of two lines:
%K: The main line, calculated using the formula (CurrentClose−LowestLow)/(HighestHigh−LowestLow)×100 . Highest and lowest price taken for 14 periods.
%D: A smoothed moving average of %K, often used as a signal line.
Strategy logic assumes that on 1D time frame it’s uptrend in %K line is above the %D line. Moreover, we can consider long trade only in %K line is below 80. It means that in overbought state the long trade will not be opened due to higher probability of pullback or even major trend reversal. If these conditions are met we are going to our working (lower) time frame.
On the chosen time frame, we remind you that for correct work of this strategy you shall use 30min – 4h time frames, MACD line shall cross over it’s signal line. The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is a popular momentum and trend-following indicator used in technical analysis. It helps traders identify changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a stock's price.
The MACD consists of three components:
MACD Line: This is the difference between a short-term Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a long-term EMA, typically calculated as: MACD Line=12-period EMA−26-period
Signal Line: This is a 9-period EMA of the MACD Line, which helps to identify buy or sell signals. When the MACD Line crosses above the Signal Line, it can be a bullish signal (suggesting a buy); when it crosses below, it can be a bearish signal (suggesting a sell).
Histogram: The histogram shows the difference between the MACD Line and the Signal Line, visually representing the momentum of the trend. Positive histogram values indicate increasing bullish momentum, while negative values indicate increasing bearish momentum.
In our script we are interested in only MACD and signal lines. When MACD line crosses signal line there is a high chance that short-term trend reversed to the upside. We use this strategy on 45 min time frame.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements.

WaveTrend With Divs & RSI(STOCH) Divs by WeloTradesWaveTrend with Divergences & RSI(STOCH) Divergences by WeloTrades
Overview
The "WaveTrend With Divergences & RSI(STOCH) Divergences" is an advanced Pine Script™ indicator designed for TradingView, offering a multi-dimensional analysis of market conditions. This script integrates several technical indicators—WaveTrend, Money Flow Index (MFI), RSI, and Stochastic RSI—into a cohesive tool that identifies both regular and hidden divergences across these indicators. These divergences can indicate potential market reversals and provide critical trading opportunities.
This indicator is not just a simple combination of popular tools; it offers extensive customization options, organized data presentation, and valuable trading signals that are easy to interpret. Whether you're a day trader or a long-term investor, this script enhances your ability to make informed decisions.
Originality and Usefulness
The originality of this script lies in its integration and the synergy it creates among the indicators used. Rather than merely combining multiple indicators, this script allows them to work together, enhancing each other's strengths. For example, by identifying divergences across WaveTrend, RSI, and Stochastic RSI simultaneously, the script provides multiple layers of confirmation, which reduces the likelihood of false signals and increases the reliability of trading signals.
The usefulness of this script is apparent in its ability to offer a consolidated view of market dynamics. It not only simplifies the analytical process by combining different indicators but also provides deeper insights through its divergence detection features. This comprehensive approach is designed to help traders identify potential market reversals, confirm trends, and ultimately make more informed trading decisions.
How the Components Work Together
1. Cross-Validation of Signals
WaveTrend: This indicator is primarily used to identify overbought and oversold conditions, as well as potential buy and sell signals. WaveTrend's ability to smooth price data and reduce noise makes it a reliable tool for identifying trend reversals.
RSI & Stochastic RSI: These momentum oscillators are used to measure the speed and change of price movements. While RSI identifies general overbought and oversold conditions, Stochastic RSI offers a more granular view by tracking the RSI’s level relative to its high-low range over a period of time. When these indicators align with WaveTrend signals, it adds a layer of confirmation that enhances the reliability of the signals.
Money Flow Index (MFI): This volume-weighted indicator assesses the inflow and outflow of money in an asset, giving insights into buying and selling pressure. By analyzing the MFI alongside WaveTrend and RSI indicators, the script can cross-validate signals, ensuring that buy or sell signals are supported by actual market volume.
Example Bullish scenario:
When a bullish divergence is detected on the RSI and confirmed by a corresponding bullish signal on the WaveTrend, along with an increasing Money Flow Index, the probability of a successful trade setup increases. This cross-validation minimizes the risk of acting on false signals, which might occur when relying on a single indicator.
Example Bearish scenario:
When a bearish divergence is detected on the RSI and confirmed by a corresponding bearish signal on the WaveTrend, along with an decreasing Money Flow Index, the probability of a successful trade setup increases. This cross-validation minimizes the risk of acting on false signals, which might occur when relying on a single indicator.
2. Divergence Detection and Market Reversals
Regular Divergences: Occur when the price action and an indicator (like RSI or WaveTrend) move in opposite directions. Regular bullish divergence signals a potential upward reversal when the price makes a lower low while the indicator makes a higher low. Conversely, regular bearish divergence suggests a downward reversal when the price makes a higher high, but the indicator makes a lower high.
Hidden Divergences: These occur when the price action and indicator move in the same direction, but with different momentum. Hidden bullish divergence suggests the continuation of an uptrend, while hidden bearish divergence suggests the continuation of a downtrend. By detecting these divergences across multiple indicators, the script identifies potential trend reversals or continuations with greater accuracy.
Example: The script might detect a regular bullish divergence on the WaveTrend while simultaneously identifying a hidden bullish divergence on the RSI. This combination suggests that while a trend reversal is possible, the overall market sentiment remains bullish, providing a nuanced view of the market.

A Hidden Bullish Divergence Example:
A Regular Bearish Divergence Example:

3. Trend Strength and Sentiment Analysis
WaveTrend: Measures the strength and direction of the trend. By identifying the extremes of market sentiment (overbought and oversold levels), WaveTrend provides early signals for potential reversals.
Money Flow Index (MFI): Assesses the underlying sentiment by analyzing the flow of money. A rising MFI during an uptrend confirms strong buying pressure, while a falling MFI during a downtrend confirms selling pressure. This helps traders assess whether a trend is likely to continue or reverse.
RSI & Stochastic RSI: Offer a momentum-based perspective on the trend’s strength. High RSI or Stochastic RSI values indicate that the asset may be overbought, suggesting a potential reversal. Conversely, low values indicate oversold conditions, signaling a possible upward reversal.
Example:
During a strong uptrend, the WaveTrend & RSI's might signal overbought conditions, suggesting caution. If the MFI also shows decreasing buying pressure and the RSI reaches extreme levels, these indicators together suggest that the trend might be weakening, and a reversal could be imminent.
Example:
During a strong downtrend, the WaveTrend & RSI's might signal oversold conditions, suggesting caution. If the MFI also shows increasing buying pressure and the RSI reaches extreme levels, these indicators together suggest that the trend might be weakening, and a reversal could be imminent.
Conclusion
The "WaveTrend With Divergences & RSI(STOCH) Divergences" script offers a powerful, integrated approach to technical analysis by combining trend, momentum, and sentiment indicators into a single tool. Its unique value lies in the cross-validation of signals, the ability to detect divergences, and the comprehensive view it provides of market conditions. By offering traders multiple layers of analysis and customization options, this script is designed to enhance trading decisions, reduce false signals, and provide clearer insights into market dynamics.

RSI & STOCHASTIC RSI OVERBOUGHT AND OVERSOLD LEVELS
Display of RSI & Stochastic with Overbought & Oversold Levels:
Display of RSI & Stochastic Overbought & Oversold Settings:
RSI & Stochastic Overbought & Oversold Levels Explanation
The Overbought (OB) and Oversold (OS) levels for RSI and Stochastic RSI indicators are key thresholds that help traders identify potential reversal points in the market. These levels are used to determine when an asset is likely overbought or oversold, which can signal a potential trend reversal.
RSI & Stochastic Overbought & Oversold Input Settings:
RSI & Stochastic Level 1 Overbought (OB) & Oversold (OS): Default: OB Level = 170, OS Level = 130
What it is: The first set of thresholds for determining overbought and oversold conditions for both RSI and Stochastic RSI indicators.
What it does: When the RSI or Stochastic RSI crosses above the overbought level, it suggests that the asset might be overbought, potentially signaling a sell opportunity. Conversely, when these indicators drop below the oversold level, it suggests the asset might be oversold, potentially signaling a buy opportunity.
Example: If the RSI crosses above 170, traders might look for signs of a potential trend reversal to the downside, while a cross below 130 might indicate a reversal to the upside.
RSI & Stochastic Level 2 Overbought (OB) & Oversold (OS): Default: OB Level = 180, OS Level = 120
What it is: The second set of thresholds for determining overbought and oversold conditions for both RSI and Stochastic RSI indicators.
What it does: These levels provide an additional set of reference points, allowing traders to differentiate between varying degrees of overbought and oversold conditions, potentially leading to more refined trading decisions.
Example: When the RSI crosses above 180, it might indicate an extreme overbought condition, which could be a stronger signal for a sell, while a cross below 120 might indicate an extreme oversold condition, which could be a stronger signal for a buy.

RSI DIVERGENCES
Display of RSI Divergence Labels:
Display of RSI Divergence Settings:
RSI Divergence Lookback Explanation
The RSI Divergence settings allow traders to customize the parameters for detecting divergences between the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and price action. Divergences occur when the price moves in the opposite direction to the RSI, potentially signaling a trend reversal. These settings help refine the accuracy of divergence detection by adjusting the lookback period and range. ( NOTE: This setting only imply to the RSI. This doesn't effect the STOCHASTIC RSI. )
RSI Divergence Lookback Input Settings:
Lookback Left: Default: 10
What it is: The number of bars to look back from the current bar to detect a potential divergence.
What it does: Defines the left-side lookback period for identifying pivot points in the RSI, which are used to spot divergences. A longer lookback period may capture more significant trends but could also miss shorter-term divergences.
Example: A setting of 10 bars means the script will consider pivot points up to 10 bars before the current bar to check for divergence patterns.
Lookback Right: Default: 1
What it is: The number of bars to look forward from the current bar to complete the divergence pattern.
What it does: Defines the right-side lookback period for confirming a potential divergence. This setting helps ensure that the identified divergence is valid by allowing the script to check subsequent bars for confirmation.
Example: A setting of 1 bar means the script will look at the next bar to confirm the divergence pattern, ensuring that the signal is reliable.
Lookback Range Min: Default: 5
What it is: The minimum range of bars required to detect a valid divergence.
What it does: Sets a lower bound on the range of bars considered for divergence detection. A lower minimum range might capture more frequent but possibly less significant divergences.
Example: Setting the minimum range to 5 ensures that only divergences spanning at least 5 bars are considered, filtering out very short-term patterns.
Lookback Range Max: Default: 60
What it is: The maximum range of bars within which a divergence can be detected.
What it does: Sets an upper bound on the range of bars considered for divergence detection. A larger maximum range might capture more significant divergences but could also include less relevant long-term patterns.
Example: Setting the maximum range to 60 bars allows the script to detect divergences over a longer timeframe, capturing more extended divergence patterns that could indicate major trend reversals.
RSI Divergence Explanation
RSI divergences occur when the RSI indicator and price action move in opposite directions, signaling potential trend reversals. This section of the settings allows traders to customize the appearance and detection of both regular and hidden bullish and bearish divergences.
RSI Divergence Input Settings:
R. Bullish Div Label: Default: True

Money Flow Index Trend Zone Strength [UAlgo]The "Money Flow Index Trend Zone Strength " indicator is designed to analyze and visualize the strength of market trends and OB/OS zones using the Money Flow Index (MFI). The MFI is a momentum indicator that incorporates both price and volume data, providing insights into the buying and selling pressure in the market. This script enhances the traditional MFI by introducing trend and zone strength analysis, helping traders identify potential trend reversals and continuation points.
🔶 Customizable Settings
Amplitude: Defines the range for the MFI Zone Strength calculation.
Wavelength: Period used for the MFI calculation and Stochastic calculations.
Smoothing Factor: Smoothing period for the Stochastic calculations.
Show Zone Strength: Enables/disables visualization of the MFI Zone Strength line.
Show Trend Strength: Enables/disables visualization of the MFI Trend Strength area.
Trend Strength Signal Length: Period used for the final smoothing of the Trend Strength indicator.
Trend Anchor: Selects the anchor point (0 or 50) for the Trend Strength Stochastic calculation.
Trend Transform MA Length: Moving Average length for the Trend Transform calculation.
🔶 Calculations
Zone Strength (Stochastic MFI):
The highest and lowest MFI values over a specified amplitude are used to normalize the MFI value:
MFI Highest: Highest MFI value over the amplitude period.
MFI Lowest: Lowest MFI value over the amplitude period.
MFI Zone Strength: (MFI Value - MFI Lowest) / (MFI Highest - MFI Lowest)
By normalizing and smoothing the MFI values, we aim to highlight the relative strength of different market zones.
Trend Strength:
The smoothed MFI zone strength values are further processed to calculate the trend strength:
EMA of MFI Zone Strength: Exponential Moving Average of the MFI Zone Strength over the wavelength period.
Stochastic of EMA: Stochastic calculation of the EMA values, smoothed with the same smoothing factor.
Purpose: The trend strength calculation provides insights into the underlying market trends. By using EMA and stochastic functions, we can filter out noise and better understand the overall market direction. This helps traders stay aligned with the prevailing trend and make more informed trading decisions.
🔶 Usage
Interpreting Zone Strength: The zone strength plot helps identify overbought and oversold conditions. A higher zone strength indicates potential overbought conditions, while a lower zone strength suggests oversold conditions, can suggest areas for entry/exit decisions.
Interpreting Trend Strength: The trend strength plot visualizes the underlying market trend, can help signal potential trend continuation or reversal based on the chosen anchor point.
Using the Trend Transform: The trend transform plot provides an additional layer of trend analysis, helping traders identify potential trend reversals and continuation points.
Combine the insights from the zone strength and trend strength plots with other technical analysis tools to make informed trading decisions. Look for confluence between different indicators to increase the reliability of your trades.

Stochastic Biquad Band Pass FilterThis indicator combines the power of a biquad band pass filter with the popular stochastic oscillator to provide a unique tool for analyzing price movements.
The Filter Length parameter determines the center frequency of the biquad band pass filter, affecting which frequency band is isolated. Adjusting this parameter allows you to focus on different parts of the price movement spectrum.
The Bandwidth (BW) controls the width of the frequency band in octaves. It represents the bandwidth between -3 dB frequencies for the band pass filter. A narrower bandwidth results in a more focused filtering effect, isolating a tighter range of frequencies.
The %K Length parameter sets the period for the stochastic calculation, determining the range over which the stochastic values are calculated.
The %K Smoothing parameter applies a simple moving average to the %K values to smooth out the oscillator line.
The %D Length parameter sets the period for the %D line, which is a simple moving average of the %K line, providing a signal line for the oscillator.
Key Features of the Stochastic Biquad Band Pass Filter
Biquad filters are known for their smooth response and minimal phase distortion, making them ideal for technical analysis. In this implementation, the biquad filter is configured as a band pass filter, which allows frequencies within a specified band to pass while attenuating frequencies outside this band. This is particularly useful in trading to isolate specific price movements, making it easier to detect patterns and trends within a targeted frequency range.
The stochastic oscillator is a popular momentum indicator that shows the location of the close relative to the high-low range over a set number of periods. Combining it with a biquad band pass filter enhances its effectiveness by focusing on specific frequency bands of price movements.
By incorporating this stochastic biquad band pass filter into your trading toolkit, you can enhance your chart analysis with clearer insights into specific frequency bands of price movements, leading to more informed trading decisions.
Cosine smoothed stochasticDescription
The "Cosine Smoothed Stochastic" indicator leverages advanced Fourier Transform techniques to smooth the traditional Stochastic Oscillator. This approach enhances the signal's reliability and reduces noise, providing traders with a more refined and actionable indicator.
The Stochastic Oscillator is a popular momentum indicator that measures the current price relative to the high-low range over a specified period. It helps identify overbought and oversold conditions, signaling potential trend reversals. By smoothing this indicator with Fourier Transform techniques, we aim to reduce false signals and improve its effectiveness.
The indicator comprises three main components:
Cosine Function: A custom function to compute the cosine of an input scaled by a frequency tuner.
Kernel Function: Utilizes the cosine function to create a smooth kernel, constrained to positive values within a specific range.
Kernel Regression and Multi Cosine: Perform kernel regression over a lookback period, with the multi cosine function summing these regressions at varying frequencies for a composite smooth signal.
Additionally, the indicator includes a volume oscillator to complement the smoothed stochastic signals, providing insights into market volume trends.
Features
Fourier Transform Smoothing: Advanced smoothing technique to reduce noise.
Volume Oscillator: Dynamic volume-based oscillator for additional market insights.
Customizable Inputs: Users can configure key parameters like regression lookback period, tuning coefficient, and smoothing length.
Visual Alerts: Buy and sell signals based on smoothed stochastic crossovers.

breakthrough of the indicators method :
Initialization and Inputs:
The indicator starts by defining necessary inputs, such as the lookback period for regression, tuning coefficient, and smoothing parameters for the Stochastic Oscillator and volume oscillator.
Cosine Function and Kernel Creation:
The cosine function is defined to compute the cosine of an input scaled by a frequency tuner.
The kernel function utilizes this cosine function to create a smoothing kernel, which is constrained to positive values within a specific range.
Kernel Regression:
The kernel regression function iterates over the lookback period, calculating weighted sums of the source values using the kernel function. This produces a smoothed value by dividing the accumulated weighted values by the total weights.
Multi Cosine Smoothing:
The multi cosine function combines multiple kernel regressions at different frequencies, summing these results and averaging them to achieve a composite smoothed value.
Stochastic Calculation and Smoothing:
The traditional Stochastic Oscillator is calculated, and its %K value is smoothed using an EMA.
The smoothed %K is further refined using the multi cosine function, resulting in a more reliable and less noisy signal.
Volume Oscillator Calculation:
The volume oscillator calculates short and long EMAs of the volume and derives the oscillator as the percentage difference between these EMAs. The result is plotted with dynamic coloring to indicate volume trends.
Plotting and Alerts:
The indicator plots the smoothed stochastic lines , overbought/oversold levels, and volume oscillator on the chart.
Buy and sell alerts are set up based on crossovers of the smoothed stochastic values, providing traders with actionable signals.

Velocity And Acceleration with Strategy: Traders Magazine◙ OVERVIEW
Hi, Ivestors and Traders... This Indicator, the focus is Scott Cong's article in the Stocks & Commodities September issue, “VAcc: A Momentum Indicator Based On Velocity And Acceleration”. I have also added a trading strategy for you to benefit from this indicator. First of all, let's look at what the indicator offers us and what its logic is. First, let's focus on the logic of the strategy.
◙ CONCEPTS
Here is a new indicator based on some simple physics concepts that is easy to use, responsive and precise. Learn how to calculate and use it.
The field of physics gives us some important principles that are highly applicable to analyzing the markets. In this indicator, I will present a momentum indicator. Scott Cong developed based on the concepts of velocity and acceleration this indicator. Of the many characteristics of price that traders and analysts often study, rate and rate of change are useful ones. In other words, it’s helpful to know: How fast is price moving, and is it speeding up or slowing down? How is price changing from one period to the next? The indicator I’m introducing here is calculated using the current bar (C) and every bar of a lookback period from the current bar. He named the indicator the VAcc since it’s based on the average of velocity line (av) and acceleration line (Acc) over the lookback period. For longer periods, the VAcc behaves the same way as the MACD, only it’s simpler, more responsive, and more precise. Interestingly, for shorter periods, VAcc exhibits characteristics of an oscillator, such as the stochastics oscillator.
◙ CALCULATION
The calculation of VAcc involves the following steps:
1. Relatively weighted average where the nearer price has the largest influence.
weighted_avg (float src, int length) =>
float sum = 0.0
for _i = 1 to length
float diff = (src - src ) / _i
sum += diff
sum /= length
2. The Velocity Average is smoothed with an exponential moving average. Now it get:
VAcc (float src, int period, int smoothing) =>
float vel = ta.ema(weighted_avg(src, period), smoothing)
float acc = weighted_avg(vel, period)
3. Similarly, accelerations for each bar within the lookback period and scale factor are calculated as:
= VAcc(src, length1, length2)
av /= (length1 * scale_factor)
◙ STRATEGY
In fact, Scott probably preferred to use it in periods 9 and 26 because it was similar to Macd and used the ratio of 0.5. However, I preferred to use the 8 and 21 periods to provide signals closer to the stochastic oscillator in the short term and used the 0.382 ratio. The logic of the strategy is this
Long Strategy → acc(Acceleration Line) > 0.1 and av(Velocity Average Line) > 0.1(Long Factor)
Short strategy → acc(Acceleration Line) < -0.1 and av(Velocity Average Line) < -0.1(Long Factor)
Here, you can change the Short Factor and Long Factor as you wish and produce more meaningful results that are closer to your own strategy.
I hope you benefits...
◙ GENEL BAKIŞ
Merhaba Yatırımcılar ve Yatırımcılar... Bu Gösterge, Scott Cong'un Stocks & Emtia Eylül sayısındaki “VAcc: Hız ve İvmeye Dayalı Bir Momentum Göstergesi” başlıklı makalesine odaklanmaktadır. Bu göstergeden faydalanabilmeniz için bir ticaret stratejisi de ekledim. Öncelikle göstergenin bize neler sunduğuna ve mantığının ne olduğuna bakalım. Öncelikle stratejinin mantığına odaklanalım.
◙ KAVRAMLAR
İşte kullanımı kolay, duyarlı ve kesin bazı basit fizik kavramlarına dayanan yeni bir gösterge. Nasıl hesaplanacağını ve kullanılacağını öğrenin.
Fizik alanı bize piyasaları analiz etmede son derece uygulanabilir bazı önemli ilkeler verir. Bu göstergede bir momentum göstergesi sunacağım. Scott Cong bu göstergeyi hız ve ivme kavramlarına dayanarak geliştirdi. Yatırımcıların ve analistlerin sıklıkla incelediği fiyatın pek çok özelliği arasında değişim oranı ve oranı yararlı olanlardır. Başka bir deyişle şunu bilmek faydalı olacaktır: Fiyat ne kadar hızlı hareket ediyor ve hızlanıyor mu, yavaşlıyor mu? Fiyatlar bir dönemden diğerine nasıl değişiyor? Burada tanıtacağım gösterge, mevcut çubuk (C) ve mevcut çubuktan bir yeniden inceleme döneminin her çubuğu kullanılarak hesaplanır. Göstergeye, yeniden inceleme dönemi boyunca hız çizgisinin (av) ve ivme çizgisinin (Acc) ortalamasına dayandığı için VAcc adını verdi. Daha uzun süreler boyunca VACc, MACD ile aynı şekilde davranır, yalnızca daha basit, daha duyarlı ve daha hassastır. İlginç bir şekilde, daha kısa süreler için VAcc, stokastik osilatör gibi bir osilatörün özelliklerini sergiliyor.
◙ HESAPLAMA
VAcc'nin hesaplanması aşağıdaki adımları içerir:
1. Yakın zamandaki fiyatın en büyük etkiye sahip olduğu göreceli ağırlıklı ortalamayı hesaplatıyoruz.
weighted_avg (float src, int length) =>
float sum = 0.0
for _i = 1 to length
float diff = (src - src ) / _i
sum += diff
sum /= length
2. Hız Ortalamasına üstel hareketli ortalamayla düzleştirme uygulanır. Şimdi bu şekilde aşağıdaki kod ile bunu şöyle elde ediyoruz:
VAcc (float src, int period, int smoothing) =>
float vel = ta.ema(weighted_avg(src, period), smoothing)
float acc = weighted_avg(vel, period)
3. Benzer şekilde, yeniden inceleme süresi ve ölçek faktörü içindeki her bir çubuk için fiyattaki ivmelenler yada momentum şu şekilde hesaplanır:
= VAcc(src, length1, length2)
av /= (length1 * scale_factor)
◙ STRATEJİ
Aslında Scott muhtemelen Macd'e benzediği ve 0,5 oranını kullandığı için 9. ve 26. periyotlarda kullanmayı tercih etmişti. Ancak kısa vadede stokastik osilatöre daha yakın sinyaller sağlamak için 8 ve 21 periyotlarını kullanmayı tercih ettim ve 0,382 oranını kullandım. Stratejinin mantığı şu
Uzun Strateji → acc(İvme Çizgisi) > 0,1 ve av(Hız Ortalama Çizgisi) > 0,1(Uzun Faktör)
Kısa strateji → acc(İvme Çizgisi) < -0,1 ve av(Hız Ortalama Çizgisi) < -0,1(Uzun Faktör)
Burada Kısa Faktör ve Uzun Faktör' ü dilediğiniz gibi değiştirip, kendi stratejinize daha yakın, daha anlamlı sonuçlar üretebilirsiniz.
umarım faydasını görürsün...

Advanced Stochastic [CryptoSea]The Advanced Stochastic Indicator is a sophisticated tool designed to enhance market analysis through detailed stochastic calculations. This tool is built for traders who seek to identify market divergences and pivot points with higher accuracy.
Key Features
Multi-Layer Stochastic Analysis: Tracks both standard and smoothed stochastic values to provide a granular view of market momentum.
Divergence Detection: Automatically detects both regular and hidden bullish and bearish divergences, offering critical insights into potential market reversals.
Adaptive Oscillator Display: Features customizable display options for the stochastic oscillator, allowing traders to view data in Default, Histogram, or Both modes.
Customizable Lookback Periods: Users can set specific lookback periods for divergence analysis and stochastic calculations, tailoring the tool to fit various trading strategies.
In the example below, there is a bearish divergence above 0. You would first want the stoch to break below the 0 level as a show of strength, this would be an aggressive entry, a higher probability option would be to wait for the stoch to retest and reject from 0 which is what we have a few candles later.
How it Works
Stochastic Calculation: Computes the stochastic oscillator by smoothing the %K line over a user-defined period, then applying a second smoothing for the %D line.
Pivot Point Analysis: Utilizes advanced algorithms to find low and high pivot points based on the oscillator values, crucial for spotting trend reversals.
Colour-Coded Divergence Alerts: Utilizes color codes to highlight divergence signals directly on the chart, aiding in quick visual analysis.
Responsive Threshold Settings: Includes options to adjust the sensitivity of divergence detection, ensuring that only significant divergences are highlighted.
In the example below, we have 2 divergence signals. The first a bullish one which fails to break above 0. The second signal is given above 0 so you would want a retest and a show of strength when the stoch returns to 0 but it fails to hold. Both of these divergence signals are invalidated.
Application
Strategic Decision-Making: Assists traders in making informed decisions by providing detailed analysis of stochastic movements and divergence.
Trend Confirmation: Reinforces trading strategies by confirming potential reversals with pivot point detection and divergence analysis.
Customized Analysis: Adapts to various trading styles with extensive input settings that control the display and sensitivity of oscillator data.

Major Divergences (🐮/🐻): The script detects and highlights major bullish and bearish divergences automatically, providing traders with visual cues for potential reversals. This helps in making informed decisions based on divergence patterns.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
RSI Levels: RSI is used to measure the speed and change of price movements, with specific levels indicating overbought and oversold conditions.
Customizable Levels: Users can configure the overbought and oversold thresholds, allowing for a tailored analysis based on individual trading strategies.
MoneyFlow Indicator:
Fast and Slow MoneyFlow: This indicator tracks the flow of capital into and out of the market, offering insights into the underlying market strength. It includes configurable periods and multipliers for both fast and slow MoneyFlow.
Vertical Positioning: The script allows users to adjust the vertical position of MoneyFlow plots to maintain a clear and uncluttered chart.
Stochastic RSI:
Stochastic RSI Levels: This combines the RSI and Stochastic indicators to provide a momentum oscillator that is sensitive to price changes. It is used to identify overbought and oversold conditions within a specified period.
Customizable Levels: Traders can set specific levels for more precise analysis.
//How It Works//
The script integrates these indicators through advanced algorithms, creating a synergistic effect that enhances market analysis. Here’s a detailed explanation of the underlying concepts and calculations:
WaveTrend Indicator:
Calculation: WaveTrend is based on the typical price (average of high, low, and close) smoothed over a specified channel length. WT1 and WT2 are derived from this typical price and further smoothed using the Average Channel Length. The difference between WT1 and WT2 indicates momentum, helping to identify cyclical market trends.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
Calculation: RSI calculates the average gains and losses over a specified period to measure the speed and change of price movements. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with levels set to identify overbought (>70) and oversold (<30) conditions.
MoneyFlow Indicator:
Calculation: MoneyFlow is derived by multiplying price changes by volume and smoothing the results over specified periods. Fast MoneyFlow reacts quickly to price changes, while Slow MoneyFlow offers a broader view of capital movement trends.
Stochastic RSI:
Calculation: Stochastic RSI is computed by applying the Stochastic formula to RSI values, which highlights the RSI’s relative position within its range over a given period. This helps in identifying momentum shifts more precisely.
//How to Use the Script//
Display Settings:
Users can enable or disable various components like WaveTrend OB & OS levels, MoneyFlow plots, and divergence alerts through checkboxes.
Example: Turn on "Show Major Divergence" to see major bullish and bearish divergence signals directly on the chart.
Adjust Channel Settings:
Customize the data source, channel length, and smoothing periods in the "WaveTrend Channel SETTINGS" group.
Example: Set the "Channel Length" to 10 for a more responsive WaveTrend line or adjust the "Average Channel Length" to 21 for smoother trends.
Set Overbought & Oversold Levels:
Configure levels for WaveTrend, RSI, and Stochastic RSI in their respective settings groups.
Example: Set the WaveTrend Overbought Level to 60 and Oversold Level to -60 to define critical thresholds.
Money Flow Settings:
Adjust the periods and multipliers for Fast and Slow MoneyFlow indicators, and set their vertical positions for better visualization.
Example: Set the Fast Money Flow Period to 9 and Slow Money Flow Period to 12 to capture both short-term and long-term capital movements.
//Justification for Combining Indicators//

Stochastic Z-Score Oscillator Strategy [TradeDots]The "Stochastic Z-Score Oscillator Strategy" represents an enhanced approach to the original "Buy Sell Strategy With Z-Score" trading strategy. Our upgraded Stochastic model incorporates an additional Stochastic Oscillator layer on top of the Z-Score statistical metrics, which bolsters the affirmation of potential price reversals.
We also revised our exit strategy to when the Z-Score revert to a level of zero. This amendment gives a much smaller drawdown, resulting in a better win-rate compared to the original version.
HOW DOES IT WORK
The strategy operates by calculating the Z-Score of the closing price for each candlestick. This allows us to evaluate how significantly the current price deviates from its typical volatility level.
The strategy first takes the scope of a rolling window, adjusted to the user's preference. This window is used to compute both the standard deviation and mean value. With these values, the strategic model finalizes the Z-Score. This determination is accomplished by subtracting the mean from the closing price and dividing the resulting value by the standard deviation.
Following this, the Stochastic Oscillator is utilized to affirm the Z-Score overbought and oversold indicators. This indicator operates within a 0 to 100 range, so a base adjustment to match the Z-Score scale is required. Post Stochastic Oscillator calculation, we recalibrate the figure to lie within the -4 to 4 range.
Finally, we compute the average of both the Stochastic Oscillator and Z-Score, signaling overpriced or underpriced conditions when the set threshold of positive or negative is breached.
APPLICATION
Firstly, it is better to identify a stable trading pair for this technique, such as two stocks with considerable correlation. This is to ensure conformance with the statistical model's assumption of a normal Gaussian distribution model. The ideal performance is theoretically situated within a sideways market devoid of skewness.
Following pair selection, the user should refine the span of the rolling window. A broader window smoothens the mean, more accurately capturing long-term market trends, while potentially enhancing volatility. This refinement results in fewer, yet precise trading signals.
Finally, the user must settle on an optimal Z-Score threshold, which essentially dictates the timing for buy/sell actions when the Z-Score exceeds with thresholds. A positive threshold signifies the price veering away from its mean, triggering a sell signal. Conversely, a negative threshold denotes the price falling below its mean, illustrating an underpriced condition that prompts a buy signal.
Within a normal distribution, a Z-Score of 1 records about 68% of occurrences centered at the mean, while a Z-Score of 2 captures approximately 95% of occurrences.
The 'cool down period' is essentially the number of bars that await before the next signal generation. This feature is employed to dodge the occurrence of multiple signals in a short period.
DEFAULT SETUP
The following is the default setup on EURAUD 1h timeframe
Rolling Window: 80
Z-Score Threshold: 2.8
Signal Cool Down Period: 5
Stochastic Length: 14
Stochastic Smooth Period: 7
Commission: 0.01%
Initial Capital: $10,000
Equity per Trade: 40%
FURTHER IMPLICATION
The Stochastic Oscillator imparts minimal impact on the current strategy. As such, it may be beneficial to adjust the weightings between the Z-Score and Stochastic Oscillator values or the scale of Stochastic Oscillator to test different performance outcomes.
Alternative momentum indicators such as Keltner Channels or RSI could also serve as robust confirmations of overbought and oversold signals when used for verification.
