🎯 Pivot Points : Detects and marks pivot highs and lows, helping traders spot key price reversals.
🚨 Alerts : Built-in alert system for when the price approaches key bullish or bearish zones, or when the trend changes.
🔨 Customizable MA: Choose from various moving averages (SMA, HMA, EMA, etc.) to suit your strategy.
How to Use :
⭐ Add the Indicator : Add the indicators to favourites by pressing the star icon. Once added, configure settings like the Hull MA period and pivot detection period.
📈 Analyze the Chart : Watch for the plotted order blocks and pivot points to identify possible price action strategies.
🔔 Enable Alerts : Set up alerts to be notified of potential trend reversals or when the price nears a bullish/bearish block.
How It Works :
The script starts by calculating the Hull Moving Average (HMA) based on the user-defined length, which is used to determine the market trend direction. It compares the current HMA value with the previous one to confirm whether the price is trending upwards or downwards. Once a trend change is detected, it plots bullish or bearish order blocks based on recent pivot highs and lows. These zones are extended in real-time as long as they remain invalidated. Zones are invalidated are invalidated when price completely closes through them. If the price gets close to a zone in the opposing direction, a warning system alerts the user that the block may not hold. Additionally, customizable alerts trigger whenever the price trend shifts or the price gets near important bullish/bearish blocks. The script’s logic ensures that order blocks are cleared if price violates them, keeping the chart clean and updated.

Dynamic ALMA with signalsEnhanced ALMA with Signals
This TradingView indicator is designed to enhance your trading strategy by utilizing the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA), a unique moving average that provides smoother price action while minimizing lag. The script not only plots the ALMA line but also dynamically adjusts its parameters based on market volatility to adapt to different trading conditions. Additionally, it highlights potential bounce points off the line, as well as breakout points, giving traders clear signals for potential support, resistance levels, and breakouts.
Key Features:
Dynamic ALMA Line with Glow Effect:
The core of this indicator is the ALMA line, which is dynamically adjusted to market volatility, providing more accurate signals in varying conditions. The line adapts to both trending and consolidating markets by adjusting its sensitivity in real time. A glow effect is created by plotting the ALMA line multiple times with increasing transparency, making it visually distinct.
Bounce Detection Signals with Volatility Filter:
The script detects and labels potential support and resistance bounces based on the crossover and crossunder of the price with the ALMA line, further filtered by a volatility condition. This helps in filtering out false signals during low-volatility conditions, making the signals more reliable.
Visual Enhancements:
Custom glow effects and labels for bounce detection enhance chart readability and help traders quickly identify key levels.
Inputs:
Base Window Size: Sets the number of bars used in calculating the ALMA, allowing traders to adjust the sensitivity of the moving average. This parameter is dynamically adjusted based on current market volatility.
Offset: Determines the position of the ALMA curve. Higher values move the curve further away from the price. This value remains constant for stability.
Sigma: Controls the smoothness of the ALMA curve; a higher sigma results in a smoother curve. This value also remains constant.
ATR Period and Threshold Multiplier: Used to calculate the Average True Range (ATR) for the volatility filter, which determines whether the market conditions are sufficiently volatile to consider bounce signals.
How It Works:
Dynamic ALMA Calculation:
The script calculates the ALMA (Arnaud Legoux Moving Average) using the ta.alma function, dynamically adjusting the window size based on market volatility measured by the ATR (Average True Range). This ensures that the ALMA line remains responsive in high-volatility environments and smooth in low-volatility conditions.
Glow Effect:
To create a glow effect around the ALMA line, the script plots the ALMA multiple times with varying degrees of transparency. This visual enhancement helps the ALMA line stand out on the chart.
Bounce Detection with Volatility Filter:
The script uses two conditions to detect potential bounces:
Support Bounce: Detected when the low of the bar crosses above the ALMA line (ta.crossover(low, alma)) and the close is above the ALMA, while the volatility filter confirms sufficient market activity. This suggests potential support at the ALMA line.
Resistance Bounce: Detected when the high of the bar crosses below the ALMA line (ta.crossunder(high, alma)) and the close is below the ALMA, while the volatility filter confirms sufficient market activity. This indicates potential resistance at the ALMA line.
Labeling Bounce Points:
When a bounce is detected, the script labels it on the chart:
Support Bounces (S): Labeled with a blue "S" below the bar where a support bounce is detected.
Resistance Bounces (R): Labeled with a white "R" above the bar where a resistance bounce is detected.
Usage:
This enhanced indicator helps traders visualize key support and resistance levels more effectively by dynamically adjusting the ALMA moving average to market conditions. By detecting and labeling potential bounce points and filtering these signals based on volatility, traders can better identify entry and exit points in their trading strategy. The dynamic adjustments and visual enhancements make it easier to spot critical levels quickly and adapt to changing market conditions.
Customize the inputs to fit your trading style, and use this enhanced ALMA indicator to gain a more refined understanding of market trends, potential reversals, and breakouts.

Sinc Bollinger BandsKaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands Indicator
The Kaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands indicator combines the advanced filtering capabilities of the Kaiser Windowed Sinc Moving Average with the volatility measurement of Bollinger Bands. This indicator represents a sophisticated approach to trend identification and volatility analysis in financial markets.
Core Components
At the heart of this indicator is the Kaiser Windowed Sinc Moving Average, which utilizes the sinc function as an ideal low-pass filter, windowed by the Kaiser function. This combination allows for precise control over the frequency response of the moving average, effectively separating trend from noise in price data.
The sinc function, representing an ideal low-pass filter, provides the foundation for the moving average calculation. By using the sinc function, analysts can independently control two critical parameters: the cutoff frequency and the number of samples used. The cutoff frequency determines which price movements are considered significant (low frequency) and which are treated as noise (high frequency). The number of samples influences the filter's accuracy and steepness, allowing for a more precise approximation of the ideal low-pass filter without altering its fundamental frequency response characteristics.
The Kaiser window is applied to the sinc function to create a practical, finite-length filter while minimizing unwanted oscillations in the frequency domain. The alpha parameter of the Kaiser window allows users to fine-tune the trade-off between the main-lobe width and side-lobe levels in the frequency response.
Bollinger Bands Implementation
Building upon the Kaiser Windowed Sinc Moving Average, this indicator adds Bollinger Bands to provide a measure of price volatility. The bands are calculated by adding and subtracting a multiple of the standard deviation from the moving average.
Advanced Centered Standard Deviation Calculation
A unique feature of this indicator is its specialized standard deviation calculation for the centered mode. This method employs the Kaiser window to create a smooth deviation that serves as an highly effective envelope, even though it's always based on past data.
The centered standard deviation calculation works as follows:
It determines the effective sample size of the Kaiser window.
The window size is then adjusted to reflect the target sample size.
The source data is offset in the calculation to allow for proper centering.
This approach results in a highly accurate and smooth volatility estimation. The centered standard deviation provides a more refined and responsive measure of price volatility compared to traditional methods, particularly useful for historical analysis and backtesting.
Operational Modes
The indicator offers two operational modes:
Non-Centered (Real-time) Mode: Uses half of the windowed sinc function and a traditional standard deviation calculation. This mode is suitable for real-time analysis and current market conditions.
Centered Mode: Utilizes the full windowed sinc function and the specialized Kaiser window-based standard deviation calculation. While this mode introduces a delay, it offers the most accurate trend and volatility identification for historical analysis.
Customizable Parameters
The Kaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands indicator provides several key parameters for customization:
Cutoff: Controls the filter's cutoff frequency, determining the divide between trends and noise.
Number of Samples: Sets the number of samples used in the FIR filter calculation, affecting the filter's accuracy and computational complexity.
Alpha: Influences the shape of the Kaiser window, allowing for fine-tuning of the filter's frequency response characteristics.
Standard Deviation Length: Determines the period over which volatility is calculated.
Multiplier: Sets the number of standard deviations used for the Bollinger Bands.
Centered Alpha: Specific to the centered mode, this parameter affects the Kaiser window used in the specialized standard deviation calculation.
Visualization Features
To enhance the analytical value of the indicator, several visualization options are included:
Gradient Coloring: Offers a range of color schemes to represent trend direction and strength for the moving average line.
Glow Effect: An optional visual enhancement for improved line visibility.
Background Fill: Highlights the area between the Bollinger Bands, aiding in volatility visualization.
Applications in Technical Analysis
The Kaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands indicator is particularly useful for:
Precise trend identification with reduced noise influence
Advanced volatility analysis, especially in the centered mode
Identifying potential overbought and oversold conditions
Recognizing periods of price consolidation and potential breakouts
Compared to traditional Bollinger Bands, this indicator offers superior frequency response characteristics in its moving average and a more refined volatility measurement, especially in centered mode. These features allow for a more nuanced analysis of price trends and volatility patterns across various market conditions and timeframes.
Conclusion
The Kaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands indicator represents a significant advancement in technical analysis tools. By combining the ideal low-pass filter characteristics of the sinc function, the practical benefits of Kaiser windowing, and an innovative approach to volatility measurement, this indicator provides traders and analysts with a sophisticated instrument for examining price trends and market volatility.
Its implementation in Pine Script contributes to the TradingView community by making advanced signal processing and statistical techniques accessible for experimentation and further development in technical analysis. This indicator serves not only as a practical tool for market analysis but also as an educational resource for those interested in the intersection of signal processing, statistics, and financial markets.

Sma Standard Deviation | viResearchSma Standard Deviation | viResearch
Conceptual Foundation and Innovation
The "Sma Standard Deviation" indicator from viResearch combines the benefits of Simple Moving Average (SMA) smoothing with Standard Deviation (SD) analysis, offering traders a powerful tool for understanding price trends and volatility. The SMA provides a straightforward approach to trend detection by calculating the average price over a defined period, while the SD component adds insight into the market's volatility by measuring the variation of prices around the SMA. This combination helps traders identify whether the price is moving within a typical range or deviating significantly, which can signal potential trend shifts or periods of increased volatility. By using both SMA and SD together, this indicator enhances the trader's ability to detect not only the trend direction but also how strongly the market is deviating from that trend, offering more informed decision-making.
Technical Composition and Calculation
The "Sma Standard Deviation" script uses two key elements: the Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Standard Deviation (SD). The SMA is calculated over a user-defined length and represents the smoothed average price over this period. The script also incorporates DEMA smoothing applied to different price sources, providing further refinement to the trend analysis. The SD is calculated by measuring the deviation of the price from the SMA over a separate user-defined length, showing how volatile the price is relative to its average. The script generates upper and lower SD boundaries by adding and subtracting the SD from the SMA, creating a volatility-adjusted range for the price. This allows traders to visualize whether the price is moving within expected bounds or breaking out of its typical range. The script monitors crossovers between the DEMA, SMA, and SD boundaries, generating trend signals based on these interactions.
Features and User Inputs
The "Sma Standard Deviation" script offers several customizable inputs, allowing traders to adjust the indicator to their specific strategies. The SMA Length controls the period for which the moving average is calculated, while the SD Length defines how long the period is for measuring price deviation. Additionally, the DEMA smoothing length can be adjusted for both the trend and standard deviation calculations, giving traders control over how responsive or smooth they want the indicator to be. The script also includes alert conditions that notify traders when trend shifts occur, either to the upside or downside.
Practical Applications
The "Sma Standard Deviation" indicator is designed for traders who want to analyze both market trends and volatility in a unified tool. The combination of the SMA and SD helps traders identify potential trend reversals, as large deviations from the SMA can indicate periods of increased volatility that precede significant price moves. This makes the indicator particularly effective for identifying trend reversals, managing volatility, and improving trend-following strategies. By analyzing when the price moves outside the volatility-adjusted range defined by the SD, traders can detect early signals of potential trend reversals. The SD component helps traders understand how volatile the market is relative to its average price, allowing for more informed decisions in both trending and volatile market conditions. The dual use of DEMA and SMA smoothing allows for a clearer trend signal, helping traders stay aligned with the prevailing market direction while managing the noise caused by short-term volatility.
Advantages and Strategic Value
The "Sma Standard Deviation" script offers significant value by integrating both trend detection and volatility analysis into a single tool. The use of SMA for smoothing price trends, combined with the SD for assessing price volatility, provides a more comprehensive view of the market. This dual approach helps traders filter out false signals caused by short-term fluctuations while identifying potential trend changes driven by increased volatility. This makes the "Sma Standard Deviation" indicator ideal for traders seeking a balance between trend-following and volatility management.
Alerts and Visual Cues
The script includes alert conditions that notify traders when significant trend shifts occur based on price crossovers with the SMA and SD boundaries. The "Sma Standard Deviation Long" alert is triggered when the price crosses above the upper volatility boundary, indicating a potential upward trend. Conversely, the "Sma Standard Deviation Short" alert signals a possible downward trend when the price crosses below the lower boundary. Visual cues, such as changes in the color of the SMA line, help traders quickly identify trend shifts and act accordingly.
Summary and Usage Tips
The "Sma Standard Deviation | viResearch" indicator provides traders with a robust tool for analyzing market trends and volatility. By combining the benefits of SMA smoothing with SD analysis, this script offers a comprehensive approach to detecting trend changes and managing risk. Incorporating this indicator into your trading strategy can help improve your ability to spot trend reversals, understand market volatility, and stay aligned with the broader market direction. The "Sma Standard Deviation" is a reliable and customizable solution for traders looking to enhance their technical analysis in both trending and volatile markets.

[DarkTrader] Strong High LowThe Strong High Low indicator calculates strong high and low pivots based on price action and the Average True Range (ATR). The calculation for both the high and low pivots involves analyzing recent candle behavior to identify significant levels where price reversal is likely. Specifically, it looks for consecutive bearish or bullish candles to determine whether a strong high or low has been established.
Indicator In Use :
For strong highs, the indicator checks if three consecutive candles are bearish, meaning their closing price is lower than their opening price. It further examines prior candles to confirm that they followed a specific pattern where a reversal could occur. If one of these earlier candles closed higher than it opened, the indicator assumes that this was a strong high, and it records either the high of the second or third candle from the pattern, depending on their relationship to each other.
Similarly, for strong lows, the indicator searches for three consecutive bullish candles where the close is higher than the open. The algorithm then reviews prior candles in the sequence to ensure that the market condition supports a potential low pivot. If an earlier candle closes lower than it opens, it marks this as a strong low. The final low point for the pivot is chosen based on a comparison between the second and third candles of the pattern.
Once the high and low pivots are determined, the indicator adjusts these levels using the ATR value. The ATR is added to the strong high pivot and subtracted from the strong low pivot to create slightly modified levels. This helps accommodate market volatility by widening the range of the high and low pivots, making the levels more reliable in reflecting potential reversal zones.
Finally, the strong high and low pivot lines are drawn on the chart, extending both to the left and right of the current price, based on the user-defined offset values. These lines give a visual cue of where key resistance and support levels exist, with labels marking the exact pivot values for easy reference.
Volume Adjusted CandlesTraditional candlestick charts are invaluable for visualizing price movements over time. However, they often lack an explicit representation of trading volume, a key factor that can significantly influence price action. Our Volume Adjusted Candles Indicator fills this gap by incorporating volume directly into the candlesticks, allowing for a more comprehensive analysis.
How Candles are Calculated
Each candlestick in this indicator is adjusted based on the volume of trades that occurred during its timeframe. The process involves segmenting the price range of the trading session into equal parts, known as 'bins'. Each bin represents a segment of the price range, and the volume of trades within each bin influences the final shape and position of the candlestick.
The Formula: The volume adjusted position of each part of the candle (high, low, and close) is calculated using a weighted average formula where each price point is weighted by the volume of trades at that price. This results in a volume-weighted price for each segment of the candle, making it easy to see where the most trading activity occurred and how it impacted price movements.
Gaussian Acceleration ArrayIndicators play a role in analyzing price action, trends, and potential reversals. Among many of these, velocity and acceleration have held a significant place due to their ability to provide insight into momentum and rate of change. This indicator takes the old calculation and tweaks it with gaussian smoothing and logarithmic function to ensure proper scaling.
A Brief on Velocity and Acceleration: The concept of velocity in trading refers to the speed at which price changes over time, while acceleration is the rate of change(ROC) of velocity. Early momentum indicators like the RSI and MACD laid foundation for understanding price velocity. However, as markets evolve so do we as technical analysts, we seek the most advanced tools.
The Acceleration/Deceleration Oscillator, introduced by Bill Williams, was one of the early attempts to measure acceleration. It helped gauge whether the market was gaining or losing momentum. Over time more specific tools like the "Awesome Oscillator"(AO) emerged, which has a set length on the datasets measured.
Gaussian Functions: Named after the mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, the Gaussian function describes a bell-shaped curve, often referred to as the "normal distribution." In trading these functions are applied to smooth data and reduce noise, focusing on underlying patterns.
The Gaussian Acceleration Array leverages this function to create a smoothed representation of market acceleration.
How does it work?
This indicator calculates acceleration based the highs and lows of each dataset
Once the weighted average for velocity is determined, its rate of change essentially becomes the acceleration
It then plots multiple lines with customizable variance from the primary selected length
Practical Tips:
The Gaussian Acceleration Array offers various customizable parameters, including the sample period, smoothing function, and array variance. Experiment with these settings to tailor it to preferred timeframes and styles.
The color-coded lines and background zones make it easier to interpret the indicator at a glance. The backgrounds indicate increasing or decreasing momentum simply as a visual aid while the lines state how the velocity average is performing. Combining this with other tools can signal shifts in market dynamics.
Super Trend ReversalsMain Concept
The core idea behind the Super Trend Reversals indicator is to assess the momentum of automated trading bots (often referred to as 'Supertrend bots') that enter the market during critical turning points. Specifically, the indicator is tuned to identify when the market is nearing bottoms or peaks, but just before it shifts direction based on the triggered Supertrend signals. This approach helps traders engage with the market right as the reversal momentum builds up, allowing for entry just as conditions become favorable and exit before momentum wanes.
How It Works
The Super Trend Reversals uses multiple Supertrend calculations, each with different period and multiplier settings, to form a comprehensive view of the trend. The total trend score from these calculations is then analyzed using the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) to gauge the strength and sustainability of the trend.
A key feature of this indicator is the isCurrentRangeSmaller() function, which evaluates if the current price range is lower than the average over the recent period. This function is critical as it helps determine the stability of the market environment, reducing the likelihood of entering or exiting trades based on erratic price movements that could lead to false signals.

atr = ta.atr(atrLength)
Volume and Trend Analysis:
volumeFlow = ta.cum(volume) - ta.ema(ta.cum(volume), volumeFlowLength)
emaShort = ta.ema(close, shortEmaLength)
emaLong = ta.ema(close, longEmaLength)
emaDifference = emaShort - emaLong
Composite Signal Calculation:
Normalizes each component (ROC, ATR, volume flow, EMA difference) and combines them into a composite signal:
rocNorm = (roc - ta.sma(roc, rocLength)) / ta.stdev(roc, rocLength)
atrNorm = (atr - ta.sma(atr, atrLength)) / ta.stdev(atr, atrLength)
volumeFlowNorm = (volumeFlow - ta.sma(volumeFlow, volumeFlowLength)) / ta.stdev(volumeFlow, volumeFlowLength)
emaDiffNorm = (emaDifference - ta.sma(emaDifference, longEmaLength)) / ta.stdev(emaDifference, longEmaLength)
compositeSignal = (rocNorm + atrNorm + volumeFlowNorm + emaDiffNorm) / 4

Deviation Adjusted MA Overview
The Deviation Adjusted MA is a custom indicator that enhances traditional moving average techniques by introducing a volatility-based adjustment. This adjustment is implemented by incorporating the standard deviation of price data, making the moving average more adaptive to market conditions. The key feature is the combination of a customizable moving average (MA) type and the application of deviation percentage to modify its responsiveness. Additionally, a smoothing layer is applied to reduce noise, improving signal clarity.
Key Components
Customizable Moving Averages
The script allows the user to select from four different types of moving averages:
Simple Moving Average (SMA): A basic average of the closing prices over a specified period.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to recent price changes.
Weighted Moving Average (WMA): Weights prices differently, favoring more recent ones but in a linear progression.
Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA): Adjusts the average by trading volume, placing more weight on high-volume periods.
Standard Deviation Calculation
The script calculates the standard deviation of the closing prices over the selected maLength period.
Standard deviation measures the dispersion or volatility of price movements, giving a sense of market volatility.
Deviation Percentage and Adjustment
Deviation Percentage is calculated by dividing the standard deviation by the base moving average and multiplying by 100 to express it as a percentage.
The base moving average is adjusted by this deviation percentage, making the indicator responsive to changes in volatility. The result is a more dynamic moving average that adapts to market conditions.
The parameter devMultiplier is available to scale this adjustment, allowing further fine-tuning of sensitivity.
Smoothing the Adjusted Moving Average
After adjusting the moving average based on deviation, the script applies an additional Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a length defined by the smoothingLength input.
This EMA serves as a smoothing filter to reduce the noise that could arise from the raw adjustments of the moving average. The smoothing makes trend recognition more consistent and removes short-term fluctuations that could otherwise distort the signal.
Use cases
The Deviation Adjusted MA indicator serves as a dynamic alternative to traditional moving averages by adjusting its sensitivity based on volatility. The script offers extensive customization options through the selection of moving average type and the parameters controlling smoothing and deviation adjustments.
By applying these adjustments and smoothing, the script enables users to better track trends and price movements, while providing a visual cue for changes in market sentiment.
Kijun_ATROVERVIEW

Indicator works best in Trending Market Regimes can have problems by signaling tops in Consolidating Market Regimes during bear markets and by sygnaling bottom in short consolidating market regimes during bull market.
TRIN (Arms Index) Trading StrategyThe TRIN (Arms Index), also known as the Short-Term Trading Index, is a technical indicator designed to gauge the internal strength or weakness of the market. It compares the number of advancing and declining stocks to the advancing and declining volume (AD Volume). A TRIN value above 1.0 generally indicates bearish market conditions, while a value below 1.0 suggests bullish market sentiment.
Strategy Rules:
Entry Condition (Long Position): When the TRIN value is above 1.0, the strategy enters a long position, indicating that the market may be oversold, and a potential reversal could occur.
Exit Condition: The strategy exits the long position when the closing price is higher than the previous day’s high, signaling a potential rebound in the market.
This strategy aims to capitalize on short-term market inefficiencies by entering trades during periods of potential market weakness and exiting when signs of recovery appear.
How the TRIN Index Works:
The TRIN is calculated as follows:
TRIN=Advancing Issues / Declining IssuesAdvancing Volume / Declining Volume
TRIN=Advancing Volume / Declining VolumeAdvancing Issues / Declining Issues
A TRIN value above 1.0 indicates that the market is potentially oversold (more declining stocks with higher volume), while a value below 1.0 suggests the market may be overbought (more advancing stocks with higher volume) .
Empirical Evidence:
Market Sentiment Indicator: The TRIN has been widely used as a sentiment indicator. Research by Zweig (1997) suggests that extreme TRIN values can serve as a contrarian signal, indicating potential turning points in the market. For instance, a TRIN above 2.0 is often considered a sign of panic selling, which can precede a market bottom .
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Studies have shown that indicators like TRIN, which measure market breadth and volume, can be effective in identifying overbought and oversold conditions. According to Fama and French (1988), market sentiment indicators that consider both price and volume data can offer insights into future price movements .
Risks and Limitations:
False Signals:
One of the primary risks of using the TRIN-based strategy is the possibility of false signals. A TRIN value above 1.0 does not always guarantee a market rebound, especially in sustained bearish trends. In such cases, the strategy might enter long positions prematurely, leading to losses.
Research by Brock, Lakonishok, and LeBaron (1992) found that while market indicators like TRIN can be useful, they are not foolproof and can generate multiple false positives, particularly in volatile markets .
Market Regimes:
The effectiveness of the TRIN index can vary depending on the market regime. In strongly trending markets, either bullish or bearish, the TRIN may not provide reliable reversal signals, and relying on it could result in trades that go against the prevailing trend. For instance, during strong bear markets, the TRIN may frequently remain above 1.0, leading to multiple losing trades as the market continues to decline.
Short-Term Focus:
The TRIN strategy is inherently short-term focused, aiming to capture quick market reversals. This makes it sensitive to market noise and less effective for longer-term investors. Moreover, short-term trading strategies often require more frequent adjustments and can incur higher transaction costs, which may erode profitability over time.
Liquidity and Execution Risk:
Since the TRIN strategy requires entering and exiting trades based on short-term market movements, it is vulnerable to liquidity and execution risks. In fast-moving markets, the execution of trades may be delayed, leading to slippage and potentially unfavorable entry or exit points.
Conclusion:
The TRIN (Arms Index) Trading Strategy can be an effective tool for traders looking to capitalize on short-term market inefficiencies and potential reversals. However, it is important to recognize the risks associated with this strategy, including false signals, sensitivity to market regimes, and execution risks. Traders should employ proper risk management techniques and consider combining the TRIN with other indicators to improve the robustness of the strategy.
While the TRIN provides valuable insights into market sentiment, it is not a standalone solution and should be used in conjunction with a broader trading plan that takes into account both technical and fundamental analysis.

Dema AFR | viResearchDema AFR | viResearch
Conceptual Foundation and Innovation
The "Dema AFR" indicator combines the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) with an Average True Range (ATR)-based adaptive factor to create a responsive and adaptable trend-following system. The DEMA is known for its ability to smooth price data while reducing lag, making it highly effective for trend detection. By incorporating the ATR as a volatility factor, this indicator adapts dynamically to market conditions, allowing traders to capture trends while accounting for changes in volatility. The result is the Adaptive Factor Range (AFR), which provides clear signals for potential trend shifts and helps manage risk through its adaptive nature. This combination of DEMA smoothing and an ATR-based factor enables traders to follow trends more effectively while maintaining sensitivity to changing market conditions.
Technical Composition and Calculation
The "Dema AFR" script consists of two main components: the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) and the Adaptive Factor Range (AFR). The DEMA is calculated over a user-defined length, smoothing out price fluctuations while reducing lag compared to traditional moving averages. The ATR is used to create a dynamic factor that adjusts the AFR based on market volatility. The factor is calculated by multiplying the ATR by a user-defined factor value, which scales the ATR to define upper and lower bounds for the AFR. The Adaptive Factor Range is derived from the DEMA, with upper and lower bounds set by adding or subtracting the ATR-based factor from the DEMA. When the price moves outside these bounds, the AFR is adjusted, and signals are generated. If the lower bound is exceeded, the AFR adjusts upward, while exceeding the upper bound causes the AFR to adjust downward. This dynamic adjustment helps the indicator stay responsive to market movements.
Features and User Inputs
The "Dema AFR" script provides several customizable inputs, allowing traders to tailor the indicator to their strategies. The DEMA Length controls the smoothing period for the DEMA, while the ATR Period defines the window for calculating the Average True Range. The ATR Factor determines the scale of the adaptive factor, controlling how much the AFR adjusts to volatility. Additionally, customizable bar colors and alert conditions allow traders to visualize the trend direction and receive notifications when key trend shifts occur.
Practical Applications
The "Dema AFR" indicator is designed for traders who want to capture trends while adapting to market volatility. The adaptive nature of the AFR makes it responsive to trend changes, providing early signals of potential trend reversals as the AFR adjusts to market movements. By incorporating ATR into the AFR calculation, the indicator adjusts to changing volatility, helping traders manage risk by staying aligned with market conditions. The AFR also helps confirm whether a price move is supported by momentum, improving the accuracy of trade entries and exits.
Advantages and Strategic Value
The "Dema AFR" script offers a significant advantage by combining the smoothness of the DEMA with the adaptability of the ATR-based factor. This dynamic combination allows the indicator to adjust to market conditions, providing more reliable trend signals in both trending and volatile markets. The adaptive nature of the AFR reduces the risk of false signals and helps traders stay on the right side of the trend while managing risk through volatility-adjusted ranges.
Alerts and Visual Cues
The script includes alert conditions that notify traders of key trend changes. The "Dema AFR Long" alert is triggered when the AFR indicates a potential upward trend, while the "Dema AFR Short" alert signals a potential downward trend. Visual cues such as color changes in the bar chart help traders quickly identify shifts in trend direction, allowing them to make informed decisions in real time.
Summary and Usage Tips
The "Dema AFR | viResearch" indicator provides traders with a powerful tool for trend analysis by combining DEMA smoothing with an ATR-based adaptive factor. This script helps traders stay aligned with trends while accounting for market volatility, improving their ability to detect trend reversals and manage risk.
