Trend Analysis
Reversed Choppiness Index with Donchian Channels and SMAIn the chaotic world of trading, where every tick can lead to joy or despair, traders yearn for clarity amid the noise. They crave a mechanism that not only reveals the underlying market trends but also navigates the turbulent waters of volatility with grace. Enter the Reversed Choppiness Index with Donchian Channels and SMA Smoothing—a sophisticated tool crafted for those who refuse to be swayed by the whims of market noise.
This innovative script harnesses the power of the Choppiness Index, flipping it on its head to unveil the true direction of price movement. Choppiness, in its traditional form, indicates when the market is stuck in a sideways range, characterized by erratic price movements that can leave traders bewildered. High choppiness often signals confusion in the market, where prices oscillate without a clear trend, leading to potential losses. Conversely, low choppiness suggests a trending market, whether bullish or bearish, where trades can yield consistent profits. By reversing the Choppiness Index, this tool highlights lower choppiness levels as opportunities for selling when the market shows stability and momentum—perfect for traders looking to enter or exit positions with confidence.
The Donchian Channels serve as reliable markers, defining the boundaries of price action and helping to paint a clearer picture of market dynamics. Traders should look for breakouts from these channels, which may indicate a significant shift in momentum. When the Reversed Choppiness Index trends lower while price breaks above the upper Donchian Band, it may signal a strong buying opportunity, while a rise in choppiness alongside price dipping below the lower band can indicate a potential selling point.
But that's not all—this tool features a dual-layer of smoothing through two distinct Simple Moving Averages (SMAs). The first SMA gently caresses the Reversed Choppiness Index, softening its edges to reveal the underlying trends. The second SMA adds an extra layer of finesse, ensuring traders can spot significant changes with less noise interference.
In a landscape filled with fleeting opportunities and unpredictable swings, this script stands as a beacon of stability. It allows traders to focus on what truly matters—seizing profitable moments without getting caught in the crossfire of volatility. By understanding the dynamics of choppiness through this reversed lens, traders can more effectively navigate their strategies, capitalizing on clearer signals while avoiding the pitfalls of market noise. Embrace this tool and transform the way you trade; the market's whispers will no longer drown out your strategies, paving the way for informed decisions and greater success.
Earning, Sales, and PriceThis Pine Script indicator is designed to visualize and analyze the growth of Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Sales for a given stock over specified time periods. With a user-friendly interface, it allows traders and investors to monitor key financial metrics, helping them make informed decisions based on company performance.
The script presents earnings, sales, and price growth in a clear tabular format directly on the price chart. It features two distinct tables: one for annual data and another for quarterly metrics. For each financial metric, the script calculates and displays growth figures by comparing the current results with either the previous quarter's numbers or the previous year's figures. Additionally, it showcases the stock price along with the corresponding growth between these two data points, providing a comprehensive view of the stock's performance over time.
How to Use:
Typically, growth stocks will rally for a few quarters. However, after significant rallies, the stock needs rest. During this period, the stock will either consolidate or slide down slowly to take support at the key moving average. Importantly, during this time, sales and earnings may continue to grow while the stock is still consolidating.
Typically, after the stock consolidates significantly—even when sales and earnings numbers are increasing—the stock will finally start the next leg of the rally just before the next earnings date or immediately after the earnings report.
For this purpose, the script shows the EPS and sales growth. Additionally, the script displays the price when the previous earnings were declared along with the price growth. This data can be used to find patterns in the stock's behavior. Utilize this indicator to analyze growth patterns and make informed trading decisions based on historical performance and upcoming earnings expectations.
Key Metrics Analyzed:
Earnings Per Share (EPS): Monitors the diluted earnings per share to evaluate company profitability.
Total Revenue: Analyzes sales performance, providing insights into overall revenue generation.
Price Growth: Tracks changes in stock price alongside EPS and sales for comprehensive performance assessment.
Usage:
Ideal for investors and traders looking to evaluate company growth potential and make data-driven decisions.
Use in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for a holistic approach to stock analysis.
Intraday buy and sell indicator for stock and optionsThis powerful intraday trading indicator leverages two key crossovers for buy and sell signals, optimized for stocks and options trading:
EMA9 Crossover: The 9-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA9) responds quickly to price changes, making it ideal for capturing short-term momentum shifts. A bullish signal is generated when the stock price crosses above the EMA9, indicating a potential upward trend, while a bearish signal occurs when the price crosses below, signaling a potential reversal.
VWMA Crossover Confirmation: The Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) provides further confirmation of trend direction by integrating volume data. When the VWMA aligns with EMA9 (price crosses above both for buy or below for sell), the signals are validated, increasing the probability of a successful trade.
How It Works:
Buy Signal: Generated when the stock price crosses above EMA9 and VWMA in unison, indicating strong bullish momentum.
Sell Signal: Generated when the stock price crosses below EMA9 and VWMA, signaling potential bearish momentum.
This indicator is designed to provide high-quality entry and exit points for intraday trades, filtering out weaker signals and reducing whipsaws. It’s ideal for active traders seeking a strategic edge by combining price action with volume confirmation for higher probability trades.
Entropy-Based Adaptive SuperTrendOverview:
Introducing the Entropy-Based Adaptive SuperTrend – a groundbreaking trading indicator designed to adapt dynamically to market conditions using market entropy. This enhanced SuperTrend indicator adjusts its sensitivity according to the level of chaos (or order) in price movements, providing more stable signals during volatile periods and more responsive signals when the market becomes orderly.
Key Features:
Entropy-Adaptive Mechanism: By incorporating an entropy measure, this indicator estimates the degree of unpredictability in the market. During high entropy periods (more chaotic), signals are made less sensitive, while during low entropy periods, the indicator reacts more quickly to price changes.
Adaptive ATR Multiplier: Unlike traditional SuperTrend indicators that use a fixed ATR multiplier, this version calculates a dynamic ATR multiplier based on the entropy score, ensuring more flexibility and adaptability in setting stop levels.
Visual Clarity: The indicator is overlayed on the price chart with customizable visual elements. The bullish and bearish trends are color-coded for ease of use, and optional entry signals ("L" for long and "S" for short) are plotted to clearly mark potential entry opportunities.
Alerts for Key Opportunities : Never miss an opportunity with built-in alerts for buy and sell signals. Traders can easily configure these alerts to be notified instantly when market conditions trigger a new trend.
How It Works:
Entropy Calculation: The entropy of the price data is calculated over a user-defined period, giving an indication of the degree of randomness in the price movements. The result is then smoothed to reduce noise and create a meaningful trend indication.
Dynamic ATR Adjustment: The ATR (Average True Range) multiplier, which controls the distance of the trailing stop, is adjusted based on the entropy score. This allows the SuperTrend line to widen in chaotic times, reducing false signals, while tightening in orderly times, allowing quicker trend captures.
Parameters Explained:
Entropy Settings: Control the sensitivity of entropy calculations, including the look-back period, number of bins for price distribution, and smoothing length.
Adaptive Settings: Adjust how the indicator adapts to different levels of entropy, including the adaptation period and the filtering weight.
SuperTrend Settings : Customize the ATR period and the dynamic multiplier range to fine-tune the trailing stops for your trading style.
Visual Settings: Choose your preferred colors for bullish and bearish trends, and decide if you want the entry labels displayed directly on the chart.
Use Cases:
Swing Traders can utilize the indicator to capture trend reversals while filtering out the noise during high entropy periods.
Intraday Traders can adapt the settings for shorter time frames to benefit from dynamic adjustments that reduce overtrading and false signals.
Risk Management: The entropy-based adaptive feature provides an edge in risk management by reducing sensitivity during times of increased chaos, thus helping to limit unnecessary trades.
How to Use It:
Look for entry labels ("L" for long, "S" for short) to identify potential opportunities.
Use the color-coded trendlines to determine market bias: greenish hue for bullish trends, reddish hue for bearish trends.
Customize the input settings to align with your preferred market timeframe and risk profile.
Alerts & Notifications:
Built-in alerts notify you of significant trend changes. Simply enable these alerts to receive updates when a new long or short opportunity is detected, helping you stay ahead without needing to watch the screen constantly.
Customization Tips:
Longer Timeframes : Increase the Entropy Period to better capture macro trends in high timeframe charts.
Higher Volatility Markets: Increase the ATR Max Multiplier to ensure stops are set farther away during high entropy.
Lower Volatility Markets: Use a lower ATR Base Multiplier and tighter entropy thresholds to capture rapid price movements.
Final Thoughts:
The Entropy-Based Adaptive SuperTrend indicator merges traditional trend-following logic with an adaptive mechanism driven by market entropy, aiming to address the challenges of whipsaws and false signals common in conventional SuperTrend setups. This indicator offers an intelligent and flexible way to track market trends, suitable for both beginners and experienced trade
Smart Ribbon V2 [FXSMARTLAB]The Smart Ribbon V2 indicator is designed to analyze market trends and momentum by plotting a series of moving averages with varying periods, all within a single overlay on the price chart. This approach creates a "ribbon" effect, enabling traders to visualize trend strength, reversals, and potential entry or exit points. The indicator provides flexibility through different moving average types, including some advanced ones like QUEMA (Quadruple Exponential Moving Average) and QuintEMA (Quintuple Exponential Moving Average). Each moving average is color-coded to indicate trend direction and momentum, making it visually intuitive and effective for quick decision-making in trend-following strategies.
The Smart Ribbon V2 helps traders:
Identify Trend Direction
Gauge Momentum
Spot Trend Reversals
Determine Entry and Exit Points
Detailed Explanation of QUEMA and QuintEMA
The QUEMA (Quadruple Exponential Moving Average) and QuintEMA (Quintuple Exponential Moving Average) are advanced smoothing techniques that build on traditional exponential moving averages (EMAs). Both offer higher sensitivity to recent price changes than standard EMAs by adding layers of exponential smoothing. These moving averages are particularly useful for traders looking for a more responsive indicator without the noise often present in shorter-period EMAs.
QUEMA (Quadruple Exponential Moving Average)
The QUEMA is calculated by applying the EMA calculation four times in succession. This method smooths out fluctuations in the price data, creating a balance between sensitivity to recent data and resistance to short-term noise.
The mathematical formula for QUEMA is:
QUEMA=4×EMA1−6×EMA2+4×EMA3−EMA4
This formula results in a moving average that is smoother than a triple EMA (TEMA) and provides a better response to price trends without excessive lag.
QuintEMA (Quintuple Exponential Moving Average)
The QuintEMA goes one step further by applying the EMA calculation five times in a row. This level of exponential smoothing is useful for identifying strong, persistent trends while remaining adaptive to recent price shifts.
The QuintEMA is calculated as :
QuintEMA=5×EMA1−10×EMA2+10×EMA3−5×EMA4+EMA5
The additional layer in QuintEMA further reduces the impact of short-term price fluctuations, making it especially useful in strongly trending markets.
The Smart Ribbon V2 combines the benefits of several moving average types to deliver a versatile tool for analyzing market trends, momentum, and potential reversals. With QUEMA and QuintEMA as advanced options, it allows traders to tailor the indicator to match their preferred trading style, whether it involves higher responsiveness or smoother trend visualization. This adaptability makes Smart Ribbon V2 a powerful choice for both novice and experienced traders seeking to improve their trend-following and market analysis strategies.

Key Features
Z-Score Calculation: The Z-Score measures how far the current price deviates from its StdEMA, providing insight into whether the price is statistically overbought or oversold.
EMA of Z-Score: This smooths the Z-Score for easier interpretation and signals potential reversals or continuation patterns.
Customizable Inputs: Users can easily adjust the EMA length, standard deviation multiplier, and smoothing length to fit their trading style and market conditions.
How to Use
Buy Signals: Look for the Z-Score EMA to cross above the 0 line, indicating potential bullish momentum.
Sell Signals: Watch for the Z-Score EMA to cross below the 0 line, suggesting potential bearish momentum.
Real Relative Strength Indicator (Multi-Index Comparison)The Real Relative Strength (RRS) indicator implements the "Real Relative Strength" equation, as detailed on the Real Day Trading subreddit wiki. This equation measures whether a stock is outperforming a benchmark (such as SPY or any preferred ETF/index) by calculating price change normalized by the Average True Range (ATR) of both the stock and the indices it’s being compared to.
The RRS metric often highlights potential accumulation by institutional players. For example, in this chart, you can observe accumulation in McDonald’s beginning at 1:25 pm ET on the 5-minute chart and continuing until 2:55 pm ET. When used in conjunction with other indicators or technical analysis, RRS can provide valuable buy and sell signals.
This indicator also supports multi-index analysis, allowing you to plot relative strength against two indices simultaneously—defaulting to SPY and QQQ—to gain insights into the "real relative strength" across different benchmarks. Additionally, this indicator includes an EMA line and background coloring to help automatically identify relative strength trends, providing a clearer visualization than typical Relative Strength Comparison indicators.
Colored Moving Averages With RSI SignalsMoving Average (MA):
Helps to determine the overall market trend. If the price is above the MA, it may indicate an uptrend, and if below, a downtrend.
In this case, a Simple Moving Average (SMA) is used, but other types can be applied as well.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
This is an oscillator that measures the speed and changes of price movements.
Values above 70 indicate overbought conditions (possible sell signal), while values below 30 indicate oversold conditions (possible buy signal).
Purpose of This Indicator:
Trading Signals: The indicator generates "Buy" and "Sell" signals based on the intersection of the price line and the moving average, as well as RSI values. This helps traders make more informed decisions.
Signal Filtering: Using RSI in combination with MA allows for filtering false signals since it considers not only the current trend but also the state of overbought or oversold conditions.
How to Use:
For Short-Term Trading: Traders can use buy and sell signals to enter trades based on short-term market fluctuations.
In Combination with Other Indicators: It can be combined with other indicators for a more comprehensive analysis (e.g., adding support and resistance levels).
Overall, this indicator helps traders respond more quickly and accurately to changes in market conditions, enhancing the chances of successful trades.

IQ Zones [TradingIQ]Hey Traders!
Introducing "IQ Zones".
"IQ Zones" is an indicator that combines support and resistance identification with volume, the "value area" of a candlestick to be exact. IQ Zones identifies turning points in the market; however, the candlestick high or low that formed the key turning point is not necessarily distinguished as the support/resistance area. Instead, the script looks into the bar at lower timeframes and calculates the value area of the candlestick that formed the support or resistance level. Therefore, any lines protruding from a candlestick reflect the value area of that candlestick. These levels (value area high and value area low) are marked on the candlestick as a support/resistance level. If the level formed on high volume it's marked as an "IQ Zone".
Additionally, IQ Zones presents a heat map to show volume intensity at nearby price areas. The heatmap is a product of the Volume Profile (IQ Profile) located on the right of the chart.
The IQ Profile is a segmented volume profile. Recent price is split into fifths (customizable), and individual volume profiles are calculated for all segmented price areas. Price is split into more than one segment to avoid a situation where volume in a ranging price zone far surpasses all other recent price areas - creating an "unusable" volume profile that doesn't offer helpful insights. If desired, you can set the segmenting option to "1" to calculate one unified volume profile for the entire price range.
The image above shows IQ Zones in action!
Core Features of IQ Zones
Value Area Support and Resistance Levels
Segmented volume profile for the recent trading period
Volume intensity heatmap
Support and resistance levels in high volume intensity may be more significant as price stoppers
The image above explains the labels marked along the y-axis of the IQ Profile.
The "more green" a price area/label is, the higher the volume intensity at the marked support/resistance area.
The image above further explains line lines protruding from the IQ Profile.
For this example, the value area of the candlestick (where most trading action occurred) is quite far from the high price of the candlestick that formed a resistance level! Using the value area of a candlestick that marks a key turning point to draw support/resistance offers insight into where the majority of trading action took place when the support/resistance level was forming!
Additionally, you can hover your mouse over the IQ Zone labels (triangles pointing up or down) to see the prices of the value area for the support/resistance level, including the total buying volume and total selling volume at the price area!
The image above further explains the IQ Profile!
You can segment the recent price area anywhere from 1 - 15 times.
The image above further explains IQ Zones and the IQ Profile!
That will be all for this indicator - a fun project to share with the community.
Thank you!
Z-Score RSI StrategyOverview
The Z-Score RSI Indicator is an experimental take on momentum analysis. By applying the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to a Z-score of price data, it measures how far prices deviate from their mean, scaled by standard deviation. This isn’t your traditional use of RSI, which is typically based on price data alone. Nevertheless, this unconventional approach can yield unique insights into market trends and potential reversals.
Theory and Interpretation
The RSI calculates the balance between average gains and losses over a set period, outputting values from 0 to 100. Typically, people look at the overbought or oversold levels to identify momentum extremes that might be likely to lead to a reversal. However, I’ve often found that RSI can be effective for trend-following when observing the crossover of its moving average with the midline or the crossover of the RSI with its own moving average. These crossovers can provide useful trend signals in various market conditions.
By combining RSI with a Z-score of price, this indicator estimates the relative strength of the price’s distance from its mean. Positive Z-score trends may signal a potential for higher-than-average prices in the near future (scaled by the standard deviation), while negative trends suggest the opposite. Essentially, when the Z-Score RSI indicates a trend, it reflects that the Z-score (the distance between the average and current price) is likely to continue moving in the trend’s direction. Generally, this signals a potential price movement, though it’s important to note that this could also occur if there’s a shift in the mean or standard deviation, rather than a meaningful change in price itself.
While the Z-Score RSI could be an insightful addition to a comprehensive trading system, it should be interpreted carefully. Mean shifts may validate the indicator’s predictions without necessarily indicating any notable price change, meaning it’s best used in tandem with other indicators or strategies.
Recommendations
Before putting this indicator to use, conduct thorough backtesting and avoid overfitting. The added parameters allow fine-tuning to fit various assets, but be careful not to optimize purely for the highest historical returns. Doing so may create an overly tailored strategy that performs well in backtests but fails in live markets. Keep it balanced and look for robust performance across multiple scenarios, as overfitting is likely to lead to disappointing real-world results.

Equilibrium Candles + Pattern [Honestcowboy]The Equilibrium Candles is a very simple trend continuation or reversal strategy depending on your settings.
How an Equilibrium Candle is created:
We calculate the equilibrium by measuring the mid point between highest and lowest point over X amount of bars back.
This now is the opening price for each bar and will be considered a green bar if price closes above equilibrium.
Bars get shaded by checking if regular candle close is higher than open etc. So you still see what the normal candles are doing.
Why are they useful?
The equilibrium is calculated the same as Baseline in Ichimoku Cloud. Which provides a point where price is very likely to retrace to. This script visualises the distance between close and equilibrium using candles. To provide a clear visual of how price relates to this equilibrium point.
This also makes it more straightforward to develop strategies based on this simple concept and makes the trader purely focus on this relationship and not think of any Ichimoku Cloud theories.
Script uses a very simple pattern to enter trades:
It will count how many candles have been one directional (above or below equilibrium)
Based on user input after X candles (7 by default) script shows we are in a trend (bg colors)
On the first pullback (candle closes on other side of equilibrium) it will look to enter a trade.
Places a stop order at the high of the candle if bullish trend or reverse if bearish trend.
If based on user input after X opposite candles (2 by default) order is not filled will cancel it and look for a new trend.
Use Reverse Logic:
There is a use reverse logic in the settings which on default is turned on. It will turn long orders into short orders making the stop orders become limit orders. It will use the normal long SL as target for the short. And TP as stop for the short. This to provide a means to reverse equity curve in case your pair is mean reverting by nature instead of trending.
ATR Calculation:
Averaged ATR, which is using ta.percentile_nearest_rank of 60% of a normal ATR (14 period) over the last 200 bars. This in simple words finds a value slightly above the mean ATR value over that period.
Big Candle Exit Logic:
Using Averaged ATR the script will check if a candle closes X times that ATR from the equilibrium point. This is then considered an overextension and all trades are closed.
This is also based on user input.
Simple trade management logic:
Checks if the user has selected to use TP and SL, or/and big candle exit.
Places a TP and SL based on averaged ATR at a multiplier based on user Input.
Closes trade if there is a Big Candle Exit or an opposite direction signal from indicator.
Script can be fully automated to MT5
There are risk settings in % and symbol settings provided at the bottom of the indicator. The script will send alert to MT5 broker trying to mimic the execution that happens on tradingview. There are always delays when using a bridge to MT5 broker and there could be errors so be mindful of that. This script sends alerts in format so they can be read by tradingview.to which is a bridge between the platforms.
Use the all alert function calls feature when setting up alerts and make sure you provide the right webhook if you want to use this approach.
There is also a simple buy and sell alert feature if you don't want to fully automate but still get alerts. These are available in the dropdown when creating an alert.
Almost every setting in this indicator has a tooltip added to it. So if any setting is not clear hover over the (?) icon on the right of the setting.
The backtest uses a 4% exposure per trade and a 10 point slippage. I did not include a commission cause I'm not personaly aware what the commissions are on most forex brokers. I'm only aware of minimal slippage to use in a backtest. Trading conditions vary per broker you use so always pay close attention to trading costs on your own broker. Use a full automation at your own risk and discretion and do proper backtesting.
SuperATR 7-Step Profit - Strategy [presentTrading] Long time no see!
█ Introduction and How It Is Different
The SuperATR 7-Step Profit Strategy is a multi-layered trading approach that integrates adaptive Average True Range (ATR) calculations with momentum-based trend detection. What sets this strategy apart is its sophisticated 7-step take-profit mechanism, which combines four ATR-based exit levels and three fixed percentage levels. This hybrid approach allows traders to dynamically adjust to market volatility while systematically capturing profits in both long and short market positions.
Traditional trading strategies often rely on static indicators or single-layered exit strategies, which may not adapt well to changing market conditions. The SuperATR 7-Step Profit Strategy addresses this limitation by:
- Using Adaptive ATR: Enhances the standard ATR by making it responsive to current market momentum.
- Incorporating Momentum-Based Trend Detection: Identifies stronger trends with higher probability of continuation.
- Employing a Multi-Step Take-Profit System: Allows for gradual profit-taking at predetermined levels, optimizing returns while minimizing risk.

█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The strategy revolves around detecting strong market trends and capitalizing on them using an adaptive ATR and momentum indicators. Below is a detailed breakdown of each component of the strategy.
🔶 1. True Range Calculation with Enhanced Volatility Detection
The True Range (TR) measures market volatility by considering the most significant price movements. The enhanced TR is calculated as:
TR = Max
Where:
High and Low are the current bar's high and low prices.
Previous Close is the closing price of the previous bar.
Abs denotes the absolute value.
Max selects the maximum value among the three calculations.
🔶 2. Momentum Factor Calculation
To make the ATR adaptive, the strategy incorporates a Momentum Factor (MF), which adjusts the ATR based on recent price movements.
Momentum = Close - Close
Stdev_Close = Standard Deviation of Close over n periods
Normalized_Momentum = Momentum / Stdev_Close (if Stdev_Close ≠ 0)
Momentum_Factor = Abs(Normalized_Momentum)
Where:
Close is the current closing price.
n is the momentum_period, a user-defined input (default is 7).
Standard Deviation measures the dispersion of closing prices over n periods.
Abs ensures the momentum factor is always positive.
🔶 3. Adaptive ATR Calculation
The Adaptive ATR (AATR) adjusts the traditional ATR based on the Momentum Factor, making it more responsive during volatile periods and smoother during consolidation.
Short_ATR = SMA(True Range, short_period)
Long_ATR = SMA(True Range, long_period)
Adaptive_ATR = /
Where:
SMA is the Simple Moving Average.
short_period and long_period are user-defined inputs (defaults are 3 and 7, respectively).
🔶 4. Trend Strength Calculation
The strategy quantifies the strength of the trend to filter out weak signals.
Price_Change = Close - Close
ATR_Multiple = Price_Change / Adaptive_ATR (if Adaptive_ATR ≠ 0)
Trend_Strength = SMA(ATR_Multiple, n)
🔶 5. Trend Signal Determination
If (Short_MA > Long_MA) AND (Trend_Strength > Trend_Strength_Threshold):
Trend_Signal = 1 (Strong Uptrend)
Elif (Short_MA < Long_MA) AND (Trend_Strength < -Trend_Strength_Threshold):
Trend_Signal = -1 (Strong Downtrend)
Else:
Trend_Signal = 0 (No Clear Trend)
🔶 6. Trend Confirmation with Price Action
Adaptive_ATR_SMA = SMA(Adaptive_ATR, atr_sma_period)
If (Trend_Signal == 1) AND (Close > Short_MA) AND (Adaptive_ATR > Adaptive_ATR_SMA):
Trend_Confirmed = True
Elif (Trend_Signal == -1) AND (Close < Short_MA) AND (Adaptive_ATR > Adaptive_ATR_SMA):
Trend_Confirmed = True
Else:
Trend_Confirmed = False

PDF Smoothed Moving Average [BackQuant]PDF Smoothed Moving Average
Introducing BackQuant’s PDF Smoothed Moving Average (PDF-MA) — an innovative trading indicator that applies Probability Density Function (PDF) weighting to moving averages, creating a unique, trend-following tool that offers adaptive smoothing to price movements. This advanced indicator gives traders an edge by blending PDF-weighted values with conventional moving averages, helping to capture trend shifts with enhanced clarity.
Core Concept: Probability Density Function (PDF) Smoothing
The Probability Density Function (PDF) provides a mathematical approach to applying adaptive weighting to data points based on a specified variance and mean. In the PDF-MA indicator, the PDF function is used to weight price data, adding a layer of probabilistic smoothing that enhances the detection of trend strength while reducing noise.
The PDF weights are controlled by two key parameters:
Variance: Determines the spread of the weights, where higher values spread out the weighting effect, providing broader smoothing.
Mean : Centers the weights around a particular price value, influencing the trend’s directionality and sensitivity.
These PDF weights are applied to each price point over the chosen period, creating an adaptive and smooth moving average that more closely reflects the underlying price trend.
Blending PDF with Standard Moving Averages
To further improve the PDF-MA, this indicator combines the PDF-weighted average with a traditional moving average, selected by the user as either an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) or Simple Moving Average (SMA). This blended approach leverages the strengths of each method: the responsiveness of PDF smoothing and the robustness of conventional moving averages.
Smoothing Method: Traders can choose between EMA and SMA for the additional moving average layer. The EMA is more responsive to recent prices, while the SMA provides a consistent average across the selected period.
Smoothing Period: Controls the length of the lookback period, affecting how sensitive the average is to price changes.
The result is a PDF-MA that provides a reliable trend line, reflecting both the PDF weighting and traditional moving average values, ideal for use in trend-following and momentum-based strategies.
Trend Detection and Candle Coloring
The PDF-MA includes a built-in trend detection feature that dynamically colors candles based on the direction of the smoothed moving average:
Uptrend: When the PDF-MA value is increasing, the trend is considered bullish, and candles are colored green, indicating potential buying conditions.
Downtrend: When the PDF-MA value is decreasing, the trend is considered bearish, and candles are colored red, signaling potential selling or shorting conditions.
These color-coded candles provide a quick visual reference for the trend direction, helping traders make real-time decisions based on the current market trend.
Customization and Visualization Options
This indicator offers a range of customization options, allowing traders to tailor it to their specific preferences and trading environment:
Price Source : Choose the price data for calculation, with options like close, open, high, low, or HLC3.
Variance and Mean : Fine-tune the PDF weighting parameters to control the indicator’s sensitivity and responsiveness to price data.
Smoothing Method : Select either EMA or SMA to customize the conventional moving average layer used in conjunction with the PDF.
Smoothing Period : Set the lookback period for the moving average, with a longer period providing more stability and a shorter period offering greater sensitivity.
Candle Coloring : Enable or disable candle coloring based on trend direction, providing additional clarity in identifying bullish and bearish phases.
Trading Applications
The PDF Smoothed Moving Average can be applied across various trading strategies and timeframes:
Trend Following : By smoothing price data with PDF weighting, this indicator helps traders identify long-term trends while filtering out short-term noise.
Reversal Trading : The PDF-MA’s trend coloring feature can help pinpoint potential reversal points by showing shifts in the trend direction, allowing traders to enter or exit positions at optimal moments.
Swing Trading : The PDF-MA provides a clear trend line that swing traders can use to capture intermediate price moves, following the trend direction until it shifts.
Final Thoughts
The PDF Smoothed Moving Average is a highly adaptable indicator that combines probabilistic smoothing with traditional moving averages, providing a nuanced view of market trends. By integrating PDF-based weighting with the flexibility of EMA or SMA smoothing, this indicator offers traders an advanced tool for trend analysis that adapts to changing market conditions with reduced lag and increased accuracy.
Whether you’re trading trends, reversals, or swings, the PDF-MA offers valuable insights into the direction and strength of price movements, making it a versatile addition to any trading strategy.
FS Scorpion TailKey Features & Components:
1. Custom Date & Chart-Based Controls
The software allows users to define whether they want signals to start on a specific date (useSpecificDate) or base calculations on the visible chart’s range (useRelativeScreenSumLeft and useRelativeScreenSumRight).
Users can input the number of stocks to buy/sell per signal and decide whether to sell only for profit.
2. Technical Indicators Used
EMA (Exponential Moving Average): Users can define the length of the EMA and specify if buy/sell signals should occur when the EMA is rising or falling.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): MACD crossovers, slopes of the MACD line, signal line, and histogram are used for generating buy/sell signals.
ATR (Average True Range): Signals are generated based on rising or falling ATR.
Aroon Indicator: Buy and sell signals are based on the behavior of the Aroon upper and lower lines.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Tracks whether the RSI and its moving average are rising or falling to generate signals.
Bollinger Bands: Buy/sell signals depend on the basis, upper, and lower band behavior (rising or falling).
3. Signal Detection
The software creates arrays for each indicator to store conditions for buy/sell signals.
The allTrue() function checks whether all conditions for buy/sell signals are true, ensuring that only valid signals are plotted.
Signals are differentiated between buy-only, sell-only, and both buy and sell (dual signal).
4. Visual Indicators
Vertical Lines: When buy, sell, or dual signals are detected, vertical lines are drawn at the corresponding bar with configurable colors (green for buy, red for sell, silver for dual).
Buy/Sell Labels: Visual labels are plotted directly on the chart to denote buy or sell signals, allowing for clear interpretation of the strategy.
5. Cash Flow & Metrics Display
The software maintains an internal ledger of how many stocks are bought/sold, their prices, and whether a profit is being made.
A table is displayed at the bottom right of the chart, showing:
Initial investment
Current stocks owned
Last buy price
Market stake
Net profit
The table background turns green for profit and red for loss.
6. Dynamic Decision Making
Buy Condition: If a valid buy signal is generated, the software decrements the cash balance and adds stocks to the inventory.
Sell Condition: If the sell signal is valid (and meets the profit requirement), stocks are sold, and cash is incremented.
A fallback check ensures the sell logic prevents selling more stocks than are available and adjusts stock holding appropriately (e.g., sell half).
Customization and Usage
Indicator Adjustments: The user can choose which indicators to activate (e.g., EMA, MACD, RSI) via input controls. Each indicator has specific customizable parameters such as lengths, slopes, and conditions.
Signal Flexibility: The user can adjust conditions for buying and selling based on various technical indicators, which adds flexibility in implementing trading strategies. For example, users may require the RSI to be higher than its moving average or trigger sales only when MACD crosses under the signal line.
Profit Sensitivity: The software allows the option to sell only when a profit is assured by checking if the current price is higher than the last buy price.
Summary of Usage:
Indicator Selection: Enable or disable technical indicators like EMA, MACD, RSI, Aroon, ATR, and Bollinger Bands to fit your trading strategy.
Custom Date/Chart Settings: Choose whether to calculate based on specific time ranges or visible portions of the chart.
Dynamic Signal Plotting: Once buy or sell conditions are met, the software will visually plot signals on your chart, giving clear entry and exit points.

Mean Trend OscillatorMean Trend Oscillator
The Mean Trend Oscillator offers an original approach to trend analysis by integrating multiple technical indicators, using statistic to get a probable signal, and dynamically adapting to market volatility.
This tool aggregates signals from four popular indicators—Relative Strength Index (RSI), Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and Relative Moving Average (RMA)—and adjusts thresholds using the Average True Range (ATR). By using this, we can use Statistics to aggregate or take the average of each indicators signal. Mathematically, Taking an average of these indicators gives us a better probability on entering a trending state.
By consolidating these distinct perspectives, the Mean Trend Oscillator provides a comprehensive view of market direction, helping traders make informed decisions based on a broad, data-driven trend assessment. Traders can use this indicator to enter long spot or leveraged positions. The Mean Trend Oscillator is intended to be use in long term trending markets. Scalping MUST NOT be used with this indicator. (This indicator will give false signals when the Timeframe is too low. The best intended use for high-quality signals are longer timeframes).
The current price of a beginning trend series may tell us something about the next move. Thus, the Mean Trend Oscillator allows us to spot a high probability trending market and potentially exploit this information enter long or shorts strategy. (again, this indicator will give false signals when the Timeframe is too low. The best intended use for high-quality signals are longer timeframes).
Concept and Calculation and Inputs
The Mean Trend Oscillator calculates a “net trend” score as follows:
RSI evaluates market momentum, identifying overbought and oversold conditions, essential for confirming trend direction.
SMA, EMA, and RMA introduce varied smoothing methods to capture short- to medium-term trends, balancing quick price changes with smoothed averages.
ATR-Enhanced Thresholds: ATR is used as a dynamic multiplier, adjusting each indicator’s thresholds to current volatility levels, which helps reduce noise in low-volatility conditions and emphasizes significant signals when volatility spikes.
Length could be used to adjust how quickly each indicator can more or how slower each indicator can be.
Time Coherency for Inputs: Each indicator must be calculated where each signal is relatively around the same area.
For example:
Simply:
SMA, RMA, EMA, and RSI enters long around each intended trend period. Doesn't have to be perfect, but the indicators all enter long around there.
Each indicator contributes a score (+1 for bullish and -1 for bearish), and these scores are averaged to generate the final trend score:
A positive score, shown as a green line, suggests bullish conditions.
A negative score, indicated by a red line, signifies bearish conditions.
Thus, giving us a signal to long or short.
How to Use the Mean Trend Oscillator
This indicator’s output is straightforward and can fit into various trading strategies:
Bullish Signal: A green line shows that the trend is bullish, based on a positive average score across the indicators, signaling a consideration of longing an asset.
Bearish Signal: A red line indicates bearish conditions, with an overall negative trend score, signaling a consideration to shorting an asset.
By aggregating these indicators, the Mean Trend Oscillator helps traders identify strong trends while filtering out minor fluctuations, making it a versatile tool for both short- and long-term analysis. This multi-layered, adaptive approach to trend detection sets it apart from traditional single-indicator trend tools.
Alpine Predictive BandsAlpine Predictive Bands - ADX & Trend Projection is an advanced indicator crafted to estimate potential price zones and trend strength by integrating dynamic support/resistance bands, ADX-based confidence scoring, and linear regression-based price projections. Designed for adaptive trend analysis, this tool combines multi-timeframe ADX insights, volume metrics, and trend alignment for improved confidence in trend direction and reliability.
Key Calculations and Components:
Linear Regression for Price Projection:
Purpose: Provides a trend-based projection line to illustrate potential price direction.
Calculation: The Linear Regression Centerline (LRC) is calculated over a user-defined lookbackPeriod. The slope, representing the rate of price movement, is extended forward using predictionLength. This projected path only appears when the confidence score is 70% or higher, revealing a white dotted line to highlight high-confidence trends.
Adaptive Prediction Bands:
Purpose: ATR-based bands offer dynamic support/resistance zones by adjusting to volatility.
Calculation: Bands are calculated using the Average True Range (ATR) over the lookbackPeriod, multiplied by a volatilityMultiplier to adjust the width. These shaded bands expand during higher volatility, guiding traders in identifying flexible support/resistance zones.
Confidence Score (ADX, Volume, and Trend Alignment):
Purpose: Reflects the reliability of trend projections by combining ADX, volume status, and EMA alignment across multiple timeframes.
ADX Component: ADX values from the current timeframe and two higher timeframes assess trend strength on a broader scale. Strong ADX readings across timeframes boost the confidence score.
Volume Component: Volume strength is marked as “High” or “Low” based on a moving average, signaling trend participation.
Trend Alignment: EMA alignment across timeframes indicates “Bullish” or “Bearish” trends, confirming overall trend direction.
Calculation: ADX, volume, and trend alignment integrate to produce a confidence score from 0% to 100%. When the score exceeds 70%, the white projection line is activated, underscoring high-confidence trend continuations.
User Guide
Projection Line: The white dotted line, which appears only when the confidence score is 70% or higher, highlights a high-confidence trend.
Prediction Bands: Adaptive bands provide potential support/resistance zones, expanding with market volatility to help traders visualize price ranges.
Confidence Score: A high score indicates a stronger, more reliable trend and can support trend-following strategies.
Settings
Prediction Length: Determines the forward length of the projection.
Lookback Period: Sets the data range for calculating regression and ATR.
Volatility Multiplier: Adjusts the width of bands to match volatility levels.
Disclaimer: This indicator is for educational purposes and does not guarantee future price outcomes. Additional analysis is recommended, as trading carries inherent risks.
Valid Pullbacks and Trend by kpt. GonzoThis script helps identify valid pullbacks. Based on the marked pullbacks, it can draw both internal and external structure trendlines.
A pullback is marked with a small triangle above or below the candle that created the local high or low.
A new local high is marked with a red triangle above the candle if at least one subsequent candle has a low lower than the low of the candle that created the new local high.
A new local low is marked with a green triangle below the candle if at least one subsequent candle has a high higher than the high of the candle that created the new local low.
Based on the marked local highs and lows, the internal structure trendline is created by simply connecting all highs and lows with a line.
The external structure is drawn in a similar way, but only highs and lows that have broken the previous structure are connected. This helps focus on important pivots and better understand the market structure.
