MA rate of changeThis indicator uses moving averages to determine trends. For those who trade using a trend-following strategy, it's not possible to use the slope of the moving average line as an indicator of trend judgment if it's expressed as an angle. This is because the angle changes depending on the adjustments made to the vertical price scale and horizontal time scale of the chart.
Therefore, instead of using the angle, I decided to use the rate of change in price as an alternative indicator.
The relationship between the rate of change of the moving average and the angle of the moving average line is as follows:
- When the value is positive, the moving average line slopes upward.
- When the value is negative, the moving average line slopes downward.
- The larger the absolute value of the rate of change, the steeper the angle; the smaller the value, the gentler the slope.
The trend is determined using the rate of change instead of the angle, as follows:
- Uptrend: Rate of change > 0.5 (this value can be adjusted) ⇒ Display with a red background
- Downtrend: Rate of change < -0.5 (this value can be adjusted) ⇒ Display with a blue background
An example of a trade using this indicator is as follows:
- Enter the trade the day after the trend appears.
- Exit the trade the day after the trend ends.
このインジケーターは移動平均線を使ってトレンドを判断します。トレンドフォロー戦略でトレードする方はこのインジケーターの示す移動平均線の傾きを角度で表してトレンドの判定の指標とすることはできません。なぜなら、角度はチャートの縦軸の価格スケールや横軸の時間のスケールを調整することで変わってしまうからです。
そこで角度に代わる別の指標として価格の変化率を使うことにしました。
移動平均の変化率と、移動平均線の角度の関係は次の通りです。
- プラスの値の場合は移動平均線は右肩上がり
- マイナスの値の場合は移動平均線は右肩下がり
- 変化率の絶対値が大きいほど角度は急になり、小さいほど角度は緩やかになる
トレンドの判定は次のようにします。角度の代わりに変化率で判定します。
- 上昇トレンド : 変化率 > 0.5 (この値は調整可能) ⇒赤色の背景で表示
- 下降トレンド : 変化率 < -0.5 (この値は調整可能)⇒青色の背景で表示
このインジケーターを使ったトレードの例は次の通りです。

SMT Divergences [OutOfOptions]Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence is designed to identify discrepancies between correlated assets within the same timeframe. It occurs when two related assets exhibit opposing signals, such as one forming a higher low while the other forms a lower low. This technique is particularly useful for anticipating market shifts or reversals before they become evident through other Premium Discount (PD) Arrays.
This indicator works by identifying the highs and lows that have formed for an asset on the current chart and the correlated symbol defined in the settings. Once a pivot on either asset is formed, it checks if the pivot has taken liquidity as identified by the previous pivot in the same direction (i.e., a new high taking out a previous high). If this is the case and the corresponding asset has not taken a similar pivot, the condition is determined to be a potential valid divergence. The indicator will then filter out SMTs formed by adjacent candles, requiring at least one candle difference between the candles forming the SMT.
If the “Candle Direction Validation” setting is enabled, the indicator will further check both assets to ensure that for bullish SMTs, the last high on both assets was formed by down candle, and for bearish SMTs, the low was formed by an up candle. This check can often eliminate low-probability SMTs that are frequently broken.
The referenced chart shows divergence between Nasdaq (NQ) and S&P 500 (ES) futures, which are normally closely correlated assets that move in the same direction. The lines shown represent bullish and bearish divergences between the two when they are formed. As you can see from the chart, SMT Divergences may not always indicate a reversal, or a reversal might be just a short-term retrace. Therefore, SMT Divergences should not be used independently. However, in conjunction with other PD arrays, they can provide strong confirmation of a change in market direction.
Configurability:
Pivot strength - Indicates how many bars to the left/right of a high for pivot to be considered, recommended to keep at 1 for maximum detection speed
Candle Direction Validation - Additional SMT validation to filter out weak/low-probability SMTs be examining candle direction
Line Styling for Bullish/Bearish SMTs - Ability to customize line style, color & width for bullish/bearish SMTs
Label Control - Whether or not to show SMT label and if shown what font size & color should be used
What makes this indicator different:
Unlike other SMT indicators, this indicators has additional built-in controls to remove low-probability SMTs
RSI TOTAL MOMENTUM1 (resatserhat)SOURCE OF COLORS
Our oscillator is the classic RSI oscillator. However, in the classic RSI oscillator, only RSI14 is taken into account, the user looks at different periods when he wants, and each period shows a different level. This situation confuses the user and prevents him from reaching a clear conclusion. This indicator takes into account the relationship between more than 1 or even 10 RSI periods, and shows us with colors which direction the momentum is in all periods and how strong it is. In other words, the mathematics underlying the coloring is the relationship between different RSI periods.
RSI COLORS
The RSI line has 3 colors: red, green, blue. The red color indicates that the momentum is weakening, the green color indicates that it is strengthening, and the blue color indicates that the momentum is unstable and can switch from red to green or from green to red at any moment.
BOLLINGER BAND COLORS
It is formed by considering the same mathematics as the RSI line colors, but it shows the momentum of larger periods. That is, it changes color later than the RSI line, but it is more reliable and accurate.
Colors in Hidden Divergences
In hidden negative divergences and hidden positive divergences, a single bar usually has an outlier color, this should be taken into consideration.
How to Use Colors?
1. When the RSI shows green bottom, blue bottom or green and blue mixed bottoms, it is a strong bullish signal.
2. When the RSI shows red top, blue top or red and blue mixed tops, it is a strong bearish signal.
3. When the RSI and BAND colors are bearish, it creates a strong signal.
4. When the RSI performs the actions in the 1st definition above the Bollinger Band, the buy signal should be trusted more.
5. When the RSI performs the actions in the 2nd definition below the Bollinger Band, the sell signal should be trusted more.
40-60 LEVELS
The 40-60 levels are strong resistance and support levels. Added for the Andrew Cardwell strategy. Blue, green or blue-green mixed bottoms occurring close to the 60 level bring strong upward movements
Red, blue or red-blue mixed tops occurring close to the 40 level bring strong downward movements.
Also in the oscillator, when RSI14 goes above the 80 level, the background color turns red. When it falls below the 20 level, the background color turns green. The first one indicates a sell zone, the second one indicates a buy zone.
TÜRKÇE
RENKLERİN KAYNAĞI
Osilatörümüz klasik RSI osilatörüdür. Fakat klasik RSI osilatöründe sadece RSI14 dikkate alınır, kullanıcı istediğinde farklı periyotlara bakar ve her periyot farklı bir seviye gösterir. Bu durum kullanıcının zihnini karıştırır, net bir kanıya varmasını önler. İşte bu indikatör 1’den hatta 10’dan fazla RSI periyodu arasındaki ilişkiyi dikkate alarak, bütün periyotlardaki momentumun hangi yönde olduğunu ve hangi güçte olduğunu renklerle bize gösterir. Yani Renklendirmenin temelinde yatan matematik farklı RSI periyotları arasındaki ilişkidir.
RSI RENKLERİ
RSI çizgisi kırmızı, yeşil, mavi olmak üzere 3 renk taşır. Kırmızı renk momentumun zayıfladığını gösterir, yeşil renk güçlendiğini, mavi renk ise momentumun kararsız olduğunu ve her an kırmızdan yeşile veya yeşilden kırmızıya geçebileceğini söyler.
BOLLİNGER BANDI RENKLERİ
RSI çizgisi renkleri ile aynı matematik dikkate alınarak oluşur, fakat daha büyük periyotların momentumunu gösterir. Yani RSI çizgisine göre daha geç renk değiştirir ama daha güvenilir ve kesindir.
Gizli Uyumsuzluklarda Renkler
Gizli negatif uyumsuzluk ve gizli pozitif uyumsuzluklarda genelde tek bir barda aykırı renk oluşur, bu husus dikkate alınmalıdır.
Renkler Nasıl Kullanılmalı?
1. RSI yeşil dip, mavi dip veya yeşil ve mavi karışımı dipler gösterdiğinde yükseliş yönlü güçlü bir sinyaldir.
2. RSI kırmızı tepe, mavi tepe veya kırmızı ve mavi karışışımı tepeler gösterdiğinde düşüş yönlü güçlü bir sinyaldir.
3. RSI ve BAND renkleri ayı olduğunda güçlü bir sinyal oluşturur.
4. RSI bollinger bandının üstünde 1. Tanımdaki eylemleri gerçekleştirdiğinde alım sinyaline daha çok güvenilmeli.
5. RSI bollinger bandının altında 2. Tanımdaki eylemleri gerçekleştirdiğinde satım sinyaline daha çok güvenilmeli.
40-60 SEVİYELERİ
40-60 seviyeleri güçlü direnç ve destek seviyeleridir. Andrew Cardwell stratejisi için eklenmiştir. 60 seviyesine yakın gerçekleşen mavi, yeşil veya mavi-yeşil karışımı dipler güçlü yükseliş hareketleri getirir
40 seviyesine yakın gerçekleşen kırmızı, mavi veya kırmızı-mavi karışımı tepeler güçlü düşüş hareketleri getirir.
Osilatörde ayrıca RSI14 80 seviyesinin üzerine çıktığında arka plan rengi kırmızıya dönüşür. 20 seviyesinin altına düştüğüne arkaplan rengi yeşile dönüşür. İlki satış bölgesi ikincisi alış bölgesi olduğunu haber eder.
Pivot Bollinger BandThis is a special kind of Bollinger Bands indicator that adapts to the market's pivot points. Instead of using regular price data, it first finds important swing highs and lows in the market (called pivot points). It then uses these pivot points to create a center line, which is like a moving average of where the market is pivoting.
Around this center line, it draws the classic Bollinger Bands - an upper and lower band that show where prices might find resistance or support. The distance between these bands changes based on market volatility, just like regular Bollinger Bands. You can adjust how sensitive it is to pivot points and how wide the bands should be.
By using pivot point based Bollinger Bands, we expect band breakout can be captured more effectively.
CPR by NKDCentral Pivot Range (CPR) Trading Strategy:
The Central Pivot Range (CPR) is a widely-used tool in technical analysis, helping traders pinpoint potential support and resistance levels in the market. By using the CPR effectively, traders can better gauge market trends and determine favorable entry and exit points. This guide explores how the CPR works, outlines its calculation, and describes how traders can enhance their strategies using an extended 10-line version of CPR.
What Really Central Pivot Range (CPR) is?
At its core, the CPR consists of three key lines:
Pivot Point (PP) – The central line, calculated as the average of the previous day’s high, low, and closing prices.
Upper Range (R1) – Positioned above the Pivot Point, acting as a potential ceiling where price may face resistance.
Lower Range (S1) – Found below the Pivot Point, serving as a potential floor where price might find support.
Advanced traders often expand on the traditional three-line CPR by adding extra levels above and below the pivot, creating up to a 10-line system. This extended CPR allows for a more nuanced understanding of the market and helps identify more detailed trading opportunities.
Applying CPR for Trading Success
1. How CPR is Calculation
The CPR relies on the previous day's high (H), low (L), and close (C) prices to create its structure:
Pivot Point (PP) = (H + L + C) / 3
First Resistance (R1) = (2 * PP) - L
First Support (S1) = (2 * PP) - H
Additional resistance levels (R2, R3) and support levels (S2, S3) are calculated by adding or subtracting multiples of the previous day’s price range (H - L) from the Pivot Point.
2. Recognizing the Market Trend
To effectively trade using CPR, it’s essential to first determine whether the market is trending up (bullish) or down (bearish). In an upward-trending market, traders focus on buying at support levels, while in a downward market, they look to sell near resistance.
3. Finding Ideal Entry Points
Traders often look to enter trades when price approaches key levels within the CPR range. Support levels (S1, S2) offer buying opportunities, while resistance levels (R1, R2) provide selling opportunities. These points are considered potential reversal zones, where price may bounce or reverse direction.
4. Managing Risk with Stop-Loss Orders
Proper risk management is crucial in any trading strategy. A stop-loss should be set slightly beyond the support level for buy positions and above the resistance level for sell positions, ensuring that losses are contained if the market moves against the trader’s position.
5. Determining Profit Targets
Profit targets are typically set based on the distance between entry points and the next support or resistance level. Many traders apply a risk-reward ratio, aiming for larger potential profits compared to the potential losses. However, if the next resistance and support level is far then middle levels are used for targets (i.e. 50% of R1 and R2)
6. Confirmation Through Other Indicators
While CPR provides strong support and resistance levels, traders often use additional indicators to confirm potential trade setups. Indicators such as moving averages can
help validate the signals provided by the CPR.
7. Monitoring Price Action At CPR Levels
Constantly monitoring price movement near CPR levels is essential. If the price fails to break through a resistance level (R1) or holds firm at support (S1), it can offer cues on when to exit or adjust a trade. However, a strong price break past these levels often signals a continued trend.
8. Trading Breakouts with CPR
When the price breaks above resistance or below support with strong momentum, it may signal a potential breakout. Traders can capitalize on these movements by entering positions in the direction of the breakout, ideally confirmed by volume or other technical indicators.
9. Adapting to Changing Market Conditions
CPR should be used in the context of broader market influences, such as economic reports, news events, or geopolitical shifts. These factors can dramatically affect market direction and how price reacts to CPR levels, making it important to stay informed about external market conditions.
10. Practice and Backtesting for Improvements
Like any trading tool, the CPR requires practice. Traders are encouraged to backtest their strategies on historical price data to get a better sense of how CPR works in different market environments. Continuous analysis and practice help improve decision-making and strategy refinement.
The Advantages of Using a 10-Line CPR System
An extended 10-line CPR system—comprising up to five resistance and five support levels—provides more granular control and insight into market movements. This expanded view helps traders better gauge trends and identify more opportunities for entry and exit. Key benefits include:
R2, S2 Levels: These act as secondary resistance or support zones, giving traders additional opportunities to refine their trade entries and exits.
R3, S3 Levels: Provide an even wider range for identifying reversals or trend continuations in more volatile markets.
Flexibility: The broader range of levels allows traders to adapt to changing market conditions and make more precise decisions based on market momentum.
So in Essential:
The Central Pivot Range is a valuable tool for traders looking to identify critical price levels in the market. By providing a clear framework for identifying potential support and resistance zones, it helps traders make informed decisions about entering and exiting trades. However, it’s important to combine CPR with sound risk management and additional confirmation through other technical indicators for the best results.
Although no trading tool guarantees success, the CPR, when used effectively and combined with practice, can significantly enhance a trader’s ability to navigate market fluctuations.
BBPct FL Impulse [BackQuant]BBPct FL Impulse
Introducing BackQuant's BBPct FL Impulse — a powerful and unique trading indicator designed to detect impulse moves and exhaustion points in the market. This leading indicator combines Bollinger Band Percentage (BBPct) calculations with a for-loop system to generate clear long and short signals. Additionally, it plots support and resistance exhaustion levels directly on the chart, providing traders with a visual representation of key market levels.
The BBPct FL Impulse is designed for traders who want to anticipate price movements rather than react to lagging indicators. By utilizing the Bollinger Band Percentage, this indicator identifies moments when the price is pushing toward extremes, signaling the likelihood of impulse moves. It goes a step further by providing exhaustion levels where the market may reverse or pause, helping traders identify potential entries and exits.
Core Concept: Bollinger Band Percentage (BBPct)
The BBPct is the primary calculation driving this indicator. It measures where the price is relative to its Bollinger Bands, allowing traders to gauge overbought or oversold conditions. Bollinger Bands are a well-known tool used to define high and low points based on standard deviation from a moving average. The BBPct takes this one step further by showing how far the price is within the bands, as a percentage.
In this script, the BBPct is calculated using the closing price over a customizable BBPct Length (default set to 70) and a Multiplier that defines the width of the bands based on standard deviation. This helps detect when price pushes toward its upper or lower boundaries, indicating potential breakouts or pullbacks.
For-Loop Scoring Mechanism
The for-loop scoring system adds a layer of sophistication to this indicator. It evaluates the BBPct over a range of periods (defined by the Start and End parameters) and generates a score that measures the direction and strength of the price movement.
Long Signals: A long signal is triggered when the score surpasses the Long Threshold (default set at 40), indicating a strong bullish impulse.
Short Signals: A short signal (labeled as "Cash" in this script) is triggered when the score crosses under the Short Threshold (default set at -10), suggesting the price has lost momentum and a bearish move may be coming.
These signals are highlighted on the chart with green triangles for Long and red triangles for Cash, giving traders clear visual cues for potential buy and sell points.
Key Feature: Exhaustion Levels (Support and Resistance)
One of the standout features of this script is the automatic plotting of Exhaustion Support and Resistance Levels. These levels represent points in the market where the price is likely to exhaust its movement and potentially reverse.
Support is plotted when the price shows signs of bullish exhaustion (low price points).
Resistance is plotted when the price shows signs of bearish exhaustion (high price points).
This dynamic support and resistance system uses a custom function based on price swings, analyzing exhaustion patterns to detect significant levels. The indicator allows traders to visualize key market zones where potential reversals or slowdowns may occur, helping to refine trade entries and exits.
Customization & Visualization
This indicator comes with a range of customizable settings, giving traders full control over how the signals are generated and displayed on the chart:
Calculation Source: Choose the price data used for the BBPct calculation (default is the closing price).
BBPct Length: Set the lookback period for the BBPct calculation, adjusting how smooth or reactive the indicator is to price changes.
Multiplier: Adjust the multiplier for the Bollinger Band calculation, controlling how wide or narrow the bands are and thereby affecting sensitivity.
Thresholds for Signals: Customize the thresholds for long and short signals, allowing you to fine-tune the sensitivity to different market conditions.
Show Long and Cash Signals: Toggle the display of long and short signals on the chart.
Exhaustion Levels: Toggle the display of support and resistance levels, adjusting the length of swings and the thickness of the lines to suit your preferences.
Trading Applications
The BBPct FL Impulse indicator is a versatile tool designed to help traders identify impulse moves and exhaustion points. Some of its key applications include:
Breakout Trading: By using the BBPct to detect when price moves toward the extremes of the Bollinger Bands, traders can anticipate potential breakouts and catch the beginning of strong price moves.
Reversal Trading: The exhaustion support and resistance levels provide key areas where price may reverse, allowing reversal traders to identify potential entries as the market shows signs of exhaustion.
Trend Following: The for-loop scoring system helps quantify the strength of price moves, enabling trend-following traders to stay in winning trades as long as the impulse remains strong.
Risk Management: By providing clear support and resistance levels, the indicator helps traders manage risk more effectively by highlighting zones where price may pause or reverse, allowing for better stop-loss placement.
Final Thoughts
The BBPct FL Impulse is an advanced indicator that combines the precision of Bollinger Band Percentage calculations with the power of a for-loop scoring system and dynamic exhaustion levels. Whether you're looking to trade breakouts, reversals, or trends, this indicator offers the tools to help you make informed decisions in the market.
As always, it's important to backtest the indicator and adapt it to your specific trading style and market. No indicator is infallible, and it should be used as part of a broader trading strategy that includes sound risk management practices.

LPPL Critical Pulse (by BigBlueCheese) Version 1.1LPPL Critical Pulse (by BigBlueCheese)
I couldn’t locate a single script on TradingView that utilized the Log-Periodic Power Law (LPPL) and period doubling—key tools used by street professionals. Here is my first script…More to come.
Log-Periodic Power Law (LPPL)
LPPL is a mathematical framework used to model asset price bubbles that can help predict market crashes or corrections. It is based on the idea that speculative bubbles exhibit self-reinforcing, positive feedback behavior that leads to increasingly unsustainable price growth, followed by a crash or correction. But the big news is that because of the speculative behavior it can identify, it has equal application across many other instruments & timeframes.
The LPPL, has been around since the 1950’s and 1960’s where its theoretical foundation lies in the concepts of renormalized group theory and critical point behavior. Physicists Lev Landau, Vitaly Ginzburg & Kenneth Wilson contributed to how we can understand systems behave at critical points and was further developed by Benoit Mandelbrot via the concept of discrete scale invariance and log-periodicity. The concepts were popularized by Didier Sornette in Why Stock Markets Crash, where he used his model to detect when markets are experiencing extreme price movements, indicating the potential for a bubble to burst or a significant correction to occur. It is suspected that others like Jim Simons was an early adopter/adapter of this (and other) advanced mathematical concepts. LPPL is especially valuable for traders trying to anticipate rapid price movements—both upward and downward.
What is a Speculative Bubble?
A speculative bubble forms when an asset’s price skyrockets due to excitement from investors, pushing it well beyond its true value. At some point, this unsustainable growth leads to a crash, as the bubble “pops.” However, these crashes don’t need to be massive market-shaking events. They can also emerge from short-term price anomalies in any market or timeframe…..and they apply equally to upward & downward price moves. That is you can use this approach for both long and short trades.
Power Law & Log-Periodicity
The Power Law aspect describes how prices accelerate as they approach a critical point, forming a steep curve that signals instability.
The Log-Periodic component captures the oscillations that grow increasingly frequent as the price nears this tipping point, marking rising volatility.
Criticality in Trading: Feedback Loops, Attractors and Repellers
LPPL can be applied to financial markets by comparing them to natural systems prone to critical points, like avalanches or earthquakes. The key concept is criticality—the idea that, just like pressure building in an earthquake zone or snow stacking up on a mountain, there’s a feedback loop in markets where investor behavior becomes increasingly synchronized. This creates a self-reinforcing cycle, accelerating price movements until the system can no longer sustain the tension, and it collapses—similar to a critical phase shift in nature when physical systems experience sudden, catastrophic events when they reach a critical threshold.
In this context, the LPPL model aims to identify these critical points in financial markets by recognizing specific patterns in price movements, providing insight into the potential timing of major market shifts.
This is how markets can behave like attractors (drawing prices into unsustainable growth or collapses) or repellers (pushing them away through sudden corrections), depending on the balance of forces. LPPL captures this dynamic, helping traders anticipate when the market is nearing these critical moments.
Attractors are states or patterns that a system tends to gravitate towards over time, representing points of stability or equilibrium. Repellers are states that the system tends to avoid or move away from, representing instability or points of divergence.
In the context of the LPPL model, the market is seen as a dynamic system that is moving towards a critical point—often a bubble or a crash. The critical point itself can be viewed as an attractor, pulling the market toward a period of instability as prices accelerate and oscillations become more frequent. This movement reflects positive feedback loops, where investor behavior (e.g., herd mentality or speculative buying) reinforces the trend until it reaches an unsustainable level.
Conversely, once the critical point is reached, it can act as a repeller, causing the system (market) to rapidly move away from that state, often resulting in a crash or market correction. In essence, the LPPL model tries to identify these phases of movement toward or away from critical points, using attractors and repellers to describe the behavior of the system before and after major market events.
This dynamic interaction between stability and instability, or attractors and repellers, is a key feature of how Sornette’s LPPL approach models financial markets, emphasizing the market’s ability to oscillate between periods of calm and critical shifts.
Bubbles and Crashes in Any Timeframe
While people often think of bubbles and crashes as huge events like the Crash of 87, the Global Financial Crisis or COVID-19, they can also be much smaller or instrument specific. A short-term spike in a stock or a sudden currency drop can behave like a miniature bubble. LPPL helps spot these shorter-term price anomalies, making it versatile for traders looking for opportunities in all instruments and timeframes.
How Can I Use LPPL Critical Pulse?
Monitor price acceleration that signals unsustainable growth/movement .
Spot volatility, oscillations, extensions and compressions and exhaustion as the market nears critical instability and levels.
Combine with other indicators to help time entries and exits, manage risk as markets approach/consolidate/leave critical levels.
LPPL Critical Pulse (LPPLCP)
LPPLCP is based on LPPL principles that identify potential upward and downward market movements, exhaustion and consolidation periods.
Visualization
The LPPL line is smoothed using a moving average to reduce noise, and the result is scaled to fit within the price range of the past 100 bars, aligning the LPPL line with the price movements on the chart.
Dynamic LPPL Line Plot:
A smoothed and scaled LPPL line plotted directly on the price chart.
• Color-Coded Trend Analysis: The LPPL line changes color dynamically based on the conditions of slope and acceleration to reflect market behaviors such as period doubling or exhaustion.
1. White (Exhaustion/Consolidation Condition): Indicates that both the slope and the acceleration of the LPPL line are zero, suggesting a potential market flattening or exhaustion/consolidation. At the end of this period, a new trend may emerge OR the prior trend may reassert itself.
2. Purple (Period Doubling): This color appears when the LPPL model detects rapid changes in acceleration, indicating the potential for a market turning point (period doubling). The slope of the LPPL line during this period suggests whether the market is moving upward or downward.
3. Green (Positive Slope with Increasing Acceleration): A green LPPL line suggests that the market is in an upward trend, with increasing acceleration.
4. Red (Negative Slope with Decreasing Acceleration): A red LPPL line indicates a downward market trend with decreasing acceleration.
5. Yellow (Neutral): Yellow is the default color when none of the specific conditions (exhaustion, period doubling, positive/negative slope with acceleration) are met, i.e. generally a continuation of the prior condition but at a slower pace.
Customization for Any Market
LPPL Critical Pulse has application across most time frames for pretty much whatever you want to trade…stocks, commodities, currencies, futures, and more. You will have to tweak the inputs to optimize for the market(s) you choose to trade.
Inputs
1. Lookback Period for Adaptation
o Type: Integer
o Default: 1
o Description: Defines the lookback period for calculating the Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Standard Deviation (StDev) used in the LPPL model. A higher value smooths the calculations over a longer period.
2. Period Doubling Threshold
o Type: Float
o Default: 0.01
o Description: Determines the sensitivity for detecting period doubling in the LPPL line. A lower threshold increases sensitivity.
3. Flattening Threshold
o Type: Float
o Default: 0.01
o Description: This input is not actively used in the current version but can be modified for further customizations in the LPPL model.
4. Period Doubling Acceleration Threshold
o Type: Float
o Default: 0.02
o Description: This controls the threshold for detecting rapid changes in the LPPL acceleration, helping identify when period doubling occurs.
Calculation Components
The LPPL line is calculated using several components:
• SMA (A): The simple moving average of the closing prices over the selected lookback period.
• Standard Deviation (B, C): These parameters are calculated based on the standard deviation of prices and control the amplitude of the LPPL oscillations.
• Exponential Decay: The LPPL line decays as it approaches a theoretical critical time (tc), where market crashes or rapid changes may occur.

RSI/MFI Divergence Finder [idahodev]Monitoring RSI (Relative Strength Index) and MFI (Money Flow Index) divergences on a stock or index chart offers several benefits to traders and analysts. Let's break down the advantages:
Comprehensive Market View: Combining both indicators provides a more complete picture of market conditions, as they measure different aspects of price movement. RSI focuses on recent gains/losses relative to price change, while MFI incorporates volume data to assess money flow in and out of a security.
Enhanced Signal Accuracy: When divergences occur simultaneously in both RSI and MFI, it may be considered a stronger signal than if only one indicator showed divergence. This can potentially lead to more reliable trading decisions.
Identification of False Breakouts: Divergences between these indicators and price action can help identify false breakouts or misleading price movements that are not supported by underlying market strength or volume.
More Nuanced Market Understanding: By examining divergent behavior between money flow (MFI) and momentum (RSI), traders gain a more detailed comprehension of the interplay between these factors in shaping market trends.
Early Warning Signs: These divergences can act as early warning signs for potential trend reversals or changes in market sentiment, allowing traders to adjust their strategies proactively.
It's important to note that RSI/MFI divergences should be used as part of a broader trading strategy rather than solely relying on them for buy/sell signals. They can serve as valuable tools for confirming trends, identifying potential turning points, or warning against overbought/oversold conditions.
When using these indicators together, traders must be cautious of false signals, especially in choppy markets or during periods of high volatility. It's crucial to combine this analysis with other technical and fundamental factors before making trading decisions.
In summary, monitoring RSI/MFI divergences may offer a way to gain insights into the underlying strengths and weaknesses of market movements.
This utility differs from other in that it allows for a choke/threshold/sensitivity setting to help weed out noisy signals. This needs to be carefully adjusted per chart.
It also allows for tuning of the MFI smoothing length (number of bars on the current chart) as well as how many previous bars it will take into consideration when calculating RSI and MFI divergences. It will signal when it sees alignment forming between RSI and MFI divergences in a direction. You will likely need to tune this script's settings every few days or at least anytime there is a change in overall market behavior or sustained volatility.
Ultimately, the goal with this script is to provide an additional level of confirmation of weakness or strength.

Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator, an advanced tool designed to enhance trading strategies by identifying potential trend reversals through volume dynamics. This script features integrated order block detection, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), and a dynamic take-profit (TP) and stop-loss (SL) system. For an in-depth understanding of the strategy, refer to the "HOW DOES IT WORK?" section below.
Features of the new Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator :
Cumulative Volume Delta-based Strategy
Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) Entry Methods
Dynamic TP/SL System
Customizable Risk Management Settings
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP, and SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The CVDS indicator operates by tracking the net volume difference between buyers and sellers to identify divergences that could indicate potential trend reversals. A cumulative volume delta (CVD) calculation is employed to measure the intensity of these divergences in relation to price movements. The net volume sum is reset every trading day (can be changed from the settings using the anchor period option), and divergences are detected when the cumulative volume crosses the 0-line over or under.
Once a significant divergence is detected, the indicator identifies breakout points, confirmed by either Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Order Blocks (OBs). Depending on your chosen entry mode, the indicator will trigger a buy or sell entry when the confirmation signal aligns with the breakout direction. Alerts for Buy, Sell, Take-Profit, and Stop-Loss are available.
Note that the indicator cannot run on 1-minute and 1-second charts, as it needs to get data from a lower timeframe. 1-minutes & 1-second timeframes are the minimum timeframes in their ranges respectively.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
What sets this indicator apart is the combination of volume divergence analysis with advanced price action tools like Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs). The ability to choose between these methods, along with a dynamic TP/SL system that adapts based on volatility, provides flexibility for traders in any market condition. The backtesting dashboard provides metrics about the performance of the indicator. You can use it to tune the settings for best use in the current ticker. The CVD-based strategy ensures that trades are initiated only when meaningful divergences between volume and price occur, filtering out noise and increasing the likelihood of profitable trades.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Anchor Period: Time anchor period used in CVD calculation. This is essentially the period that the volume delta sum will be reset. Lower timeframes may result in more entries at the cost of less reliable results.
Entry Mode: Choose between FVGs or OBs to trigger your entries based on the confirmation signals.
Retracement Requirement: Enable to confirm the entry after a retracement toward the FVG or OB.
2. Fair Value Gaps
FVG Sensitivity: Modify the sensitivity of FVG detection, allowing for more or fewer gaps to be considered valid.
3. Order Blocks (OB)
Swing Length: Define the swing length to identify OB formations. Shorter lengths find smaller OBs, while longer lengths detect larger structures.
4. TP / SL
TP / SL Method:
a) Dynamic: The TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the current ticker.
b) Fixed : You can adjust the exact TP / SL ratios from the settings below.
Dynamic Risk: The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.
TrendWave EMA/VWAP IndicatorThe TrendWave EMA/VWAP Indicator is a powerful technical analysis tool designed for traders seeking to enhance their market strategies.

Aroon Oscillator [BigBeluga]Aroon Oscillator with Mean Reversion & Trend Signals is a versatile tool that helps traders identify both trend direction and potential mean reversion points. The core Aroon Oscillator tracks the strength of a trend by measuring how long it has been since a high or low price occurred within a specified period. This oscillator provides trend-following signals (LONG/SHORT) along with mean reversion signals, giving traders both the ability to ride trends and anticipate reversals.
The unique feature of this indicator is the Mean Reversion Signals, marked with dots on the main chart, indicating potential points where the trend might reverse or retrace. In addition, trend-following signals (LONG and SHORT) are plotted directly on the chart, providing clear entry and exit points when a trend is beginning or ending.
🔵 IDEA
The Aroon Oscillator with Mean Reversion indicator provides a combined approach of trend analysis and mean reversion. The core idea is to track the health and momentum of trends, while also identifying when those trends might reverse or slow down. This dual approach allows traders to both follow the prevailing market direction and also capture mean reversion opportunities.
The oscillator is smoothed with John Ehlers' Zero Lag function , which helps reduce noise and improves signal clarity by removing lag without sacrificing the indicator's responsiveness.
The indicator uses color-coded signals and an easy-to-read oscillator to visually represent different types of signals on the chart. This makes it easy for traders to spot important changes in market trends and take action based on both the trend-following and mean reversion aspects of the indicator.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
Trend Following Signals (LONG/SHORT):
In addition to mean reversion signals, the indicator also provides clear trend-following signals. LONG signals (green arrows) are plotted when the oscillator crosses above zero, indicating a potential uptrend. Conversely, SHORT signals (blue arrows) are plotted when the oscillator crosses below zero, signaling a potential downtrend.
Mean Reversion Signals:
This indicator features unique mean reversion signals, represented by dots on the main chart. These signals occur when the oscillator crosses over or under a smoother signal line, indicating that the current trend might be losing strength and a reversal or retracement is possible. Green dots represent a possible upward reversion, while blue dots signal a potential downward reversion.
Color-Coded Signals and Oscillator:
The Aroon Oscillator is color-coded to make it visually easier for traders to differentiate between trends and mean reversion signals. When the oscillator is above zero, the area is filled with green, and when it is below zero, the area is filled with blue. This visual representation helps traders quickly identify the current market condition at a glance.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Aroon Length & Smoothing: Control the sensitivity of the Aroon Oscillator by adjusting the lookback period and smoothing settings, allowing traders to fine-tune the indicator to match different market conditions.
Mean Reversion Signals: Enable or disable mean reversion signals based on your trading preferences. Adjust the signal line length to control when these reversal signals are triggered.
Color Customization: Customize the colors for the oscillator and signals to match your chart’s color scheme for better visual clarity.
Dynamic Score PSAR [QuantAlgo]Dynamic Score PSAR 📈🧬
The Dynamic Score PSAR by QuantAlgo introduces an innovative approach to trend detection by utilizing a dynamic trend scoring technique in combination with the Parabolic SAR. This method goes beyond traditional trend-following indicators by evaluating market momentum through a scoring system that analyzes price behavior over a customizable window. By dynamically adjusting to evolving market conditions, this indicator provides clearer, more adaptive trend signals that help traders and investors anticipate market reversals and capitalize on momentum shifts with greater precision.

Wolfpack Elite - Liquidation Sniper - by 9123416916### Strategy: **Wolfpack Elite - Liquidation Sniper by Md Arif**
**Overview:**
This is a technical analysis strategy designed for trading, which combines two popular technical indicators: **Relative Strength Index (RSI)** and **Moving Averages (MA)**. It identifies potential buy (long) and sell (short) signals based on oversold and overbought conditions in the market, along with crossovers between two moving averages. The strategy also incorporates a risk management system by setting **take profit** and **stop loss** levels to protect against large losses and lock in gains.
---
**Key Components:**
1. **Indicators Used:**
- **RSI (Relative Strength Index):**
- Measures the speed and change of price movements.
- Used to identify **overbought** (above 70) and **oversold** (below 30) conditions.
- **Short and Long Moving Averages:**
- The strategy uses two simple moving averages (SMA) to detect trends and potential entry points.
- Short MA (9-period) and Long MA (21-period) are used for crossovers.
2. **Entry Signals:**
- **Bullish Entry (Long Position):**
- Triggered when the RSI falls below the oversold level (30) and the **short MA** crosses above the **long MA** (bullish crossover).
- This suggests that the market might be oversold and ready to rebound.
- **Bearish Entry (Short Position):**
- Triggered when the RSI rises above the overbought level (70) and the **short MA** crosses below the **long MA** (bearish crossover).
- This suggests that the market might be overbought and due for a correction.
3. **Risk Management:**
- **Take Profit and Stop Loss:**
- The strategy calculates the take profit and stop loss levels as percentages of the entry price.
- **Take Profit:** Set at 5% above the entry price for long positions and 5% below the entry price for short positions.
- **Stop Loss:** Set at 3% below the entry price for long positions and 3% above the entry price for short positions.
4. **Position Sizing:**
- The position size is calculated as a percentage of the trader's total equity (default set to 100% of equity).
5. **Exit Conditions:**
- **For Long Positions:**
- Exit the trade if the price hits the take profit level (5% above entry) or the stop loss level (3% below entry).
- **For Short Positions:**
- Exit the trade if the price hits the take profit level (5% below entry) or the stop loss level (3% above entry).
6. **Visualization:**
- The strategy visually plots the short and long moving averages on the chart.
- It also marks **bullish crossovers** with green upward triangles and **bearish crossovers** with red downward triangles, making it easier to spot potential entry points.
---
**How the Strategy Works:**
- The strategy starts by calculating the **RSI** and **moving averages**.
- It waits for specific conditions to trigger buy or sell signals. If the RSI indicates that the market is oversold and a bullish crossover occurs, it initiates a **long trade**. Similarly, if the RSI shows an overbought condition and a bearish crossover occurs, it opens a **short trade**.
- Once a trade is open, the strategy monitors the price and automatically exits the trade if the price reaches the set take profit or stop loss level.
---
This strategy is designed for active traders who seek to capitalize on short-term price movements and want clear entry/exit points with built-in risk management.

Trailing Stop Loss Smart [TradingFinder] Market Trend + CVD/EMA🔵 Introduction
Trailing Stop Loss (TSL) is one of the most powerful tools available. A Trailing Stop Loss is a modification of a typical stop order that adjusts dynamically based on market price movement. It can be set at a defined percentage or dollar amount away from the security's current market price, making it a flexible tool for locking in profits while minimizing risk. Unlike standard stop-loss orders, a Trailing Stop follows the market in the direction of the trade, protecting gains without requiring constant manual adjustments.
The Trailing Stop Loss Smart (TFlab Trailing Stop) indicator takes this concept even further by incorporating advanced metrics like Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD), volume dynamics, and Average True Range (ATR). This combination not only enhances risk management but also acts as a trend identifier, providing traders with a powerful tool to capitalize on both short-term and long-term price movements.
This indicator also supports various Order Types, allowing for flexible strategies that include a trailing stop/stop-loss combo to maximize winning trades while minimizing losses. The trailing stop limit is particularly useful for traders who want to set their stop at a precise level relative to the current market price, either by a percentage or a dollar amount. The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator can help ensure that traders do not exit too early during trends, while the stop-loss feature kicks in during reversals.
The advantages of using a Trailing Stop Loss are its ability to protect profits and reduce the emotional decision-making process in volatile markets. However, like all trading strategies, it has disadvantages, such as the risk of triggering too early during normal market fluctuations. By understanding how the Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator integrates features like CVD, ATR, and volume analysis, traders can leverage its full potential while navigating these pros and cons.
With its unique ability to track market movements and trends using Cumulative Volume Delta, volume dynamics, and ATR-based trailing stops, this indicator offers a complete solution for traders looking to secure profits while minimizing downside risk. Whether you're employing a simple trailing stop or a trailing stop/stop-loss combo, this tool provides all the flexibility and precision needed to execute winning trades in various markets, including Forex, Crypto, and Stock.
🔵 How to Use
The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator integrates multiple advanced components to provide traders with superior risk management and trend identification.
Here’s how each part of the logic works :
🟣 Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) Logic
The CVD tracks buying and selling pressure by calculating the difference between upward and downward price movements. When there’s more buying pressure, the CVD is positive, indicating a potential bullish trend. Conversely, more selling pressure results in a negative CVD, pointing to a bearish trend.
CVD Trend Detection : The indicator determines whether the market is in a bullish or bearish phase by comparing the CVD to its moving average. A bullish trend is confirmed when the CVD is above its moving average and the price is closing higher.
A bearish trend occurs when the CVD is below its moving average and the price is closing lower. This trend detection is critical for determining whether the trailing stop should be placed below the price (bullish) or above it (bearish).
🟣 Volume Dynamics
Volume is a key factor in identifying market strength. The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator pulls volume data based on the market selected (Forex, Crypto, or Stock) and adjusts the trailing stop based on whether the market is experiencing high volume or low volume.
High Volume : When the current volume exceeds the average volume, the market is in a high-volume state. During these conditions, the trailing stop is placed closer to the price, as high volume often indicates strong trends with less chance of reversals.
Low Volume : In low-volume conditions, the trailing stop gives the market more room to breathe by placing the stop further away from the price. This prevents premature stop-outs in periods of reduced market activity.
🟣 ATR-Based Trailing Stop
The Average True Range (ATR) is used to measure market volatility. The Trailing Stop Loss Smart uses the ATR to dynamically adjust the stop-loss distance.
Bullish Market : When a bullish trend is detected, the trailing stop is placed below the lowest price of the recent bars (determined by the Bar Back parameter), and adjusted by the ATR Multiplier. This allows for tighter protection during strong bullish trends.
Bearish Market : When the market is bearish, the trailing stop is placed above the highest price of recent bars, also adjusted by the ATR Multiplier. This ensures that short positions are safeguarded against sudden reversals.
🟣 Dynamic Stop-Loss Updates
The trailing stop is updated every few bars (according to the Refiner parameter), ensuring it remains relevant to the most recent price action and volume changes. This dynamic feature ensures the stop-loss adapts to both trending and volatile market conditions, without requiring manual intervention.
High Volume with Trends : In periods of high volume and a confirmed trend, the stop-loss is positioned tightly to lock in profits while minimizing the risk of reversal.
Low Volume with Trends : In low-volume conditions, the stop-loss is placed further from the price, allowing the market to move freely without triggering premature exits.
🟣 Visual Representation
The indicator visually represents the trailing stop on the chart, with green lines indicating bullish trends and red lines for bearish trends. This visual aid helps traders quickly assess the state of the market and the position of their trailing stop in real-time.
🔵 Settings
The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator offers several customizable settings to suit various trading strategies. Understanding these inputs is key to optimizing the tool for your specific trading style.
🟣 General Settings
Cumulative Mode : This controls how the CVD is calculated.
You can choose between :
EMA : Exponential Moving Average smoothing.
Periodic : Sums the delta over a fixed period.
CVD Period : Defines the look-back period for CVD calculation. A longer period smooths the data, making it less sensitive to short-term fluctuations.
Ultra Data : This Boolean input aggregates volume across multiple exchanges for a more comprehensive view of market activity.
Market Ultra Data : Select between Forex, Crypto, and Stock to ensure the indicator pulls accurate volume data for your market.
🟣 Logical Settings
Moving Average CVD Period : Defines the period for the moving average of the CVD. A longer period smooths the trend, reducing noise.
Moving Average Volume Period : Sets the period for the moving average used to distinguish between high and low volume conditions.
Level Finder Bar Back : Determines how many bars to look back when identifying the highest or lowest price for trailing stop placement.
Levels update per candles : Sets how often (in bars) the trailing stop should be updated to remain in sync with market movements.
ATR On : Toggles the use of ATR to adjust the trailing stop based on volatility.
ATR Multiplie r: Defines how far the stop is placed from the price based on the ATR. A larger multiplier increases the stop distance, reducing the likelihood of getting stopped out during market fluctuations.
ATR Multiplier Adjusts the distance of the trailing stop based on the ATR. A higher multiplier places the stop further from the price, providing more breathing room in volatile markets.
🔵 Conclusion
The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator is a comprehensive tool for traders looking to manage risk while identifying market trends. By incorporating Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) to detect buying and selling pressure, volume dynamics to gauge market activity, and ATR to adjust for volatility, this indicator ensures that stop-loss levels are both adaptive and protective.
Whether you’re trading in Forex, Crypto, or Stock markets, the Trailing Stop Loss Smart allows you to capitalize on trends while dynamically adjusting to changing market conditions. Its ability to distinguish between high-volume and low-volume periods ensures that you’re not stopped out prematurely during periods of consolidation or market hesitation.
By providing real-time visual feedback, dynamic adjustments, and trend identification, this indicator serves as a vital tool for traders aiming to maximize profits while minimizing risk. Its versatility and adaptability make it an essential part of any trader’s toolkit, helping you stay ahead in fast-moving markets while safeguarding your positions.
Ultimate Oscillator Trading StrategyThe Ultimate Oscillator Trading Strategy implemented in Pine Script™ is based on the Ultimate Oscillator (UO), a momentum indicator developed by Larry Williams in 1976. The UO is designed to measure price momentum over multiple timeframes, providing a more comprehensive view of market conditions by considering short-term, medium-term, and long-term trends simultaneously. This strategy applies the UO as a mean-reversion tool, seeking to capitalize on temporary deviations from the mean price level in the asset’s movement (Williams, 1976).
Strategy Overview:
Calculation of the Ultimate Oscillator (UO):
The UO combines price action over three different periods (short-term, medium-term, and long-term) to generate a weighted momentum measure. The default settings used in this strategy are:
Short-term: 6 periods (adjustable between 2 and 10).
Medium-term: 14 periods (adjustable between 6 and 14).
Long-term: 20 periods (adjustable between 10 and 20).
The UO is calculated as a weighted average of buying pressure and true range across these periods. The weights are designed to give more emphasis to short-term momentum, reflecting the short-term mean-reversion behavior observed in financial markets (Murphy, 1999).
Entry Conditions:
A long position is opened when the UO value falls below 30, indicating that the asset is potentially oversold. The value of 30 is a common threshold that suggests the price may have deviated significantly from its mean and could be due for a reversal, consistent with mean-reversion theory (Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993).
Exit Conditions:
The long position is closed when the current close price exceeds the previous day’s high. This rule captures the reversal and price recovery, providing a defined point to take profits.
The use of previous highs as exit points aligns with breakout and momentum strategies, as it indicates sufficient strength for a price recovery (Fama, 1970).
Scientific Basis and Rationale:
Momentum and Mean-Reversion:
The strategy leverages two well-established phenomena in financial markets: momentum and mean-reversion. Momentum, identified in earlier studies like those by Jegadeesh and Titman (1993), describes the tendency of assets to continue in their direction of movement over short periods. Mean-reversion, as discussed by Poterba and Summers (1988), indicates that asset prices tend to revert to their mean over time after short-term deviations. This dual approach aims to buy assets when they are temporarily oversold and capitalize on their return to the mean.

The UO’s incorporation of multiple timeframes (short, medium, and long) provides a holistic view of momentum, unlike single-period oscillators such as the RSI. By combining data across different timeframes, the UO offers a more robust signal and reduces the risk of false entries often associated with single-period momentum indicators (Murphy, 1999).
Trading and Market Efficiency:
Studies in behavioral finance, such as those by Shiller (2003), show that short-term inefficiencies and behavioral biases can lead to overreactions in the market, resulting in price deviations. This strategy seeks to exploit these temporary inefficiencies, using the UO as a signal to identify potential entry points when the market sentiment may have overly pushed the price away from its average.
Strategy Performance:
Backtests of this strategy show promising results, with profit factors exceeding 2.5 when the default settings are optimized. These results are consistent with other studies on short-term trading strategies that capitalize on mean-reversion patterns (Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993). The use of a dynamic, multi-period indicator like the UO enhances the strategy’s adaptability, making it effective across different market conditions and timeframes.
Conclusion:
The Ultimate Oscillator Trading Strategy effectively combines momentum and mean-reversion principles to trade on temporary market inefficiencies. By utilizing multiple periods in its calculation, the UO provides a more reliable and comprehensive measure of momentum, reducing the likelihood of false signals and increasing the profitability of trades. This aligns with modern financial research, showing that strategies based on mean-reversion and multi-timeframe analysis can be effective in capturing short-term price movements.

MTF RSI+CMO PROThis RSI+CMO script combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO), providing a powerful tool to help traders analyze price momentum and spot potential turning points in the market. Unlike using RSI alone, the CMO (especially with a 14-period length) moves faster and accentuates price pops and dips in the histogram, making price shifts more apparent.
Indicator Features:
➡️RSI and CMO Combined: This indicator allows traders to track both RSI and CMO values simultaneously, highlighting differences in their movement. RSI and CMO values are both plotted on the histogram, while CMO values are also drawn as a line moving through the histogram, giving a visual representation of their relationship. The often faster-moving CMO accentuates short-term price movements, helping traders spot subtle shifts in momentum that the RSI might smooth out.
➡️Multi-Time Frame Table: A real-time, multi-time frame table displays RSI and CMO values across various timeframes. This gives traders an overview of momentum across different intervals, making it easier to spot trends and divergences across short and long-term time frames.
➡️Momentum Chart Label: A chart label compares the current RSI and CMO values with values from 1 and 2 bars back, providing an additional metric to gauge momentum. This feature allows traders to easily see if momentum is increasing or decreasing in real-time.
➡️RSI/CMO Bullish and Bearish Signals: Colored arrow plot shapes (above the histogram) indicate when RSI and CMO values are signaling bullish or bearish conditions. For example, green arrows appear when RSI is above 65, while purple arrows show when RSI is below 30 and CMO is below -40, indicating strong bearish momentum.
➡️Divergences in Histogram: The histogram can make it easier for traders to spot divergences between price and momentum. For instance, if the price is making new highs but the RSI or CMO is not, a bearish divergence may be forming. Similarly, bullish divergences can be spotted when prices are making lower lows while RSI or CMO is rising.
➡️Alert System: Alerts are built into the indicator and will trigger when specific conditions are met, allowing traders to stay informed of potential entry or exit points based on RSI and CMO levels without constantly monitoring the chart. These are set manually. Look for the 3 dots in the indicator name.
How Traders Can Use the Indicator:
💥Identifying Momentum Shifts: The RSI+CMO combination is ideal for spotting momentum shifts in the market. Traders can monitor the histogram and the CMO line to determine if the market is gaining or losing strength.
💥Confirming Trade Entries/Exits: Use the real-time RSI and CMO values across multiple time frames to confirm trades. For instance, if the 1-hour RSI is above 70 but the 1-minute RSI is turning down, it could indicate short-term overbought conditions, signaling a potential exit or reversal.
💥Spotting Divergences: Divergences are critical for predicting potential reversals. The histogram can be used to spot divergences when RSI and CMO values deviate from price action, offering an early signal of market exhaustion.
💥Tracking Multi-Time Frame Trends: The multi-time frame table provides insight into the market’s overall trend across several timeframes, helping traders ensure their decisions align with both short and long-term trends.
RSI vs. CMO: Why Use Both?
While both RSI and CMO measure momentum, the CMO often moves faster with a value of 14 for example, reacting to price changes more quickly. This makes it particularly effective for detecting sharp price movements, while RSI helps smooth out price action. By using both, traders get a clearer picture of the market's momentum, particularly during volatile periods.
Confluence and Price Fluidity:
One of the powerful ways to enhance the effectiveness of this indicator is by using it in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to create confluence. Confluence occurs when multiple indicators or price action signals align, providing stronger confirmation for a trade decision. For example:
🎯Support and Resistance Levels: Traders can use RSI+CMO in combination with key support and resistance zones. If the price is nearing a support level and RSI+CMO values start to signal a bullish reversal, this alignment strengthens the case for entering a long position.
🎯Moving Averages: When the RSI+CMO signals a potential trend reversal and this is confirmed by a crossover in moving averages (such as a 50-day and 200-day moving average), traders gain additional confidence in the trade direction.
🎯Momentum Indicators: Traders can also look for momentum indicators like the MACD to confirm the strength of a trend or potential reversal. For instance, if the RSI+CMO values start to decrease rapidly while both the RSI+CMO also shows overbought conditions, this could provide stronger confirmation to exit a long trade or enter a short position.
🎯Candlestick Patterns: Price fluidity can be monitored using candlestick formations. For example, a bearish engulfing pattern with decreasing RSI+CMo values offers confluence, adding confidence to the signal to close or short the trade.
By combining the MTF RSI+CMO PRO with other tools, traders ensure that they are not relying on a single indicator. This layered approach can reduce the likelihood of false signals and improve overall trading accuracy.

The ability to backtest empowers traders to validate strategies before going live, significantly improving the chances of success by offering data-driven insights.
💡 Signal Logic:
ADX
The ADX-based signals reflect the strength of market trends. Bullish or bearish signals are generated when directional indicators (+DI or -DI) show increasing strength relative to one another, indicating the start or continuation of a strong trend.
RSX
These signals focus on divergences within RSI, identifying potential reversals by detecting either classic or hidden divergences when the market is overbought or oversold.
V9
Signals are generated when the price interacts with a dynamic threshold, indicating trend continuation or reversal. Additional filters can be applied to refine these signals further, enhancing the dashboard's overall effectiveness.
CAND
Candlestick-based signals are triggered by key patterns such as bullish or bearish engulfing formations. These signals are cross-checked with other conditions, such as RSI levels and candle stability, making them especially useful for short-term trading.
PP (Pivot Points)
Pivot Point signals reinforce candlestick patterns by aligning with key support or resistance levels, suggesting potential reversals or continuation opportunities at significant price points.
MA (Moving Average)
MA signals help identify trends by analyzing price action relative to a moving average. Optional filters like ADX add an additional layer of validation, ensuring only high-confidence signals are displayed on the dashboard.
LVL (Levels)
These signals are based on shifts in RSI and help traders spot potential breakouts or reversals. The dashboard integrates these signals alongside MA and ADX filters to enhance their accuracy.
