Market Energy & Direction DashboardMarket Energy & Direction Dashboard - Daytrading
Overview
A comprehensive real-time market internals dashboard that combines NYSE TICK, NYSE Advance-Decline (ADD) momentum, VIX direction, and relative volume into a single visual traffic light system with intelligent signal synthesis. Designed for active daytraders who need instant confirmation of market direction and energy based on momentum alignment across all major internals.
What It Does
This indicator synthesizes multiple market internals using directional momentum analysis rather than static thresholds to provide clear, actionable signals:
• Traffic Light System: Single glance confirmation of market state
o Bright Green: Maximum bullish - all internals aligned (TICK + ADD rising + VIX falling + volume)
o Bright Red: Maximum bearish - all internals aligned (TICK + ADD falling + VIX rising + volume)
o Yellow: Exhaustion warning - TICK at extremes, potential reversal imminent
o Moderate Colors: Partial alignment - some confirmation but not complete
o Gray: Choppy, neutral, or conflicting signals
• Real-Time Dashboard displays:
o Current TICK value with exhaustion warnings
o Current ADD with directional momentum indicator (↑ rising = breadth improving, ↓ falling = breadth deteriorating, ± compression)
o VIX level with directional indicator (↓ declining = bullish, ↑ rising = bearish, ± compression = neutral)
o Relative volume (current vs 20-period average)
o Composite status message synthesizing all data into clear directional summary
Key Features
✓ Momentum-based analysis - all indicators show direction/change, not just levels ✓ Intelligent signal hierarchy from "Maximum" to "Moderate" based on internal alignment ✓ ADD directional momentum - catches breadth shifts early, works in all market conditions ✓ VIX directional analysis - shows if fear is increasing, decreasing, or stagnant ✓ Color-coded traffic light for instant decision making ✓ Detects TICK/ADD divergences (conflicting signals = caution) ✓ Exhaustion warnings at extreme TICK levels (±1000+) ✓ Composite status messages - "Maximum Bull", "Strong Bull", "Moderate Bull", etc. ✓ Customizable thresholds for all parameters ✓ Moveable dashboard (9 position options) ✓ Built-in alerts for all signal strengths, exhaustion, and divergences
How To Use
Setup:
1. Add indicator to your main trading chart (SPY, ES, NQ, etc.)
2. Default settings work well for most traders, but you can customize:
o TICK Extreme Level (default 1000)
o ADD Compression Threshold (default 100 - detects when breadth is stagnant)
o VIX Elevated Level (default 20)
o VIX Compression Threshold (default 2% - detects low volatility)
o Volume Threshold (default 1.5x average)
3. Position dashboard wherever convenient on your chart
Reading The Signals:
Signal Hierarchy (Strongest to Weakest):
MAXIMUM SIGNALS ⭐ (Brightest colors - All 4 internals aligned)
• "✓ MAXIMUM BULL": TICK bullish + ADD rising (↑) + VIX falling (↓) + Volume elevated
o This is the holy grail setup - all momentum aligned, highest conviction longs
• "✓ MAXIMUM BEAR": TICK bearish + ADD falling (↓) + VIX rising (↑) + Volume elevated
o Perfect storm bearish - all momentum aligned, highest conviction shorts
STRONG SIGNALS (Bright colors - Core internals aligned)
• "✓ STRONG BULL": TICK bullish + ADD rising (↑)
o Strong confirmation even without VIX/volume - breadth supporting the move
• "✓ STRONG BEAR": TICK bearish + ADD falling (↓)
o Strong confirmation - both momentum and breadth deteriorating
MODERATE SIGNALS (Faded colors - Partial confirmation)
• "MODERATE BULL": TICK bullish but ADD not confirming direction
o Proceed with caution - momentum present but breadth questionable
• "MODERATE BEAR": TICK bearish but ADD not confirming direction
o Proceed with caution - selling but breadth not fully participating
WARNING SIGNALS
• "⚠ EXHAUSTION" (Yellow): TICK at ±1000+ extremes
o Potential reversal zone - prepare to fade or take profits
o Often marks blow-off tops or capitulation bottoms
NEUTRAL/AVOID
• "CHOPPY/NEUTRAL" (Gray): Conflicting signals or low conviction
o Stay out or reduce size significantly
Individual Indicator Interpretation:
TICK:
• Green: Bullish momentum (>+300)
• Red: Bearish momentum (<-300)
• Yellow: Exhaustion (±1000+)
• Gray: Neutral
ADD (Advance-Decline):
• Green (↑): Breadth improving - more stocks participating in the move
• Red (↓): Breadth deteriorating - fewer stocks participating
• Gray (±): Breadth stagnant - no clear participation trend
VIX:
• Green (↓): Fear declining - healthy environment for rallies
• Red (↑): Fear rising - risk-off mode, supports downward moves
• Gray (±): Volatility compression - often precedes explosive moves
Volume:
• Green: High conviction (>1.5x average)
• Gray: Low conviction
Trading Strategy:
1. Wait for "MAXIMUM" or "STRONG" signals for highest probability entries
o Maximum signals = go full size with confidence
o Strong signals = good conviction, normal position sizing
2. Confirm directional alignment:
o For longs: Want ADD ↑ (rising) and VIX ↓ (falling)
o For shorts: Want ADD ↓ (falling) and VIX ↑ (rising)
3. Use exhaustion warnings (yellow) to:
o Take profits on existing positions
o Prepare counter-trend entries
o Tighten stops
4. Avoid "MODERATE" signals unless you have strong conviction from other analysis
o These work best as confirmation for existing setups
o Not strong enough to initiate new positions alone
5. Never trade "CHOPPY/NEUTRAL" signals
o Gray means stay out - preserve capital
o Wait for clear alignment
6. Watch for divergences:
o Price making new highs but ADD ↓ (falling) = distribution warning
o Price making new lows but ADD ↑ (rising) = potential bottom
o Divergence alert will notify you
Best Practices:
• Use on 1-5 minute charts for daytrading
• Combine with your price action or technical setup (support/resistance, trendlines, patterns)
• The dashboard confirms when to take your setup, not what setup to take
• Most effective during regular market hours (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM ET) when volume is present
• The strongest edge comes from "MAXIMUM" signals - wait for these for best risk/reward
• Pay special attention to ADD direction - it's the most predictive breadth indicator
• VIX compression (gray ±) often signals upcoming volatility expansion - prepare for bigger moves
Customization Option
All thresholds are adjustable in settings:
• TICK Extreme: Higher = fewer exhaustion warnings (try 1200-1500 for less sensitivity)
• ADD Compression Threshold: Change detection sensitivity
o Default 100 = balanced
o Lower (50) = more sensitive to small breadth changes
o Higher (200-300) = only shows major breadth shifts
• VIX Elevated: Adjust for current volatility regime (15-25 typical range)
• VIX Compression Threshold:
o Default 2% = balanced
o Lower (0.5-1%) = catches subtle VIX changes
o Higher (3-5%) = only shows significant VIX moves
• Volume Threshold: Lower for quieter stocks/times, higher for more confirmation
Alerts Available
• Maximum Bullish: All 4 internals aligned bullish (TICK + ADD↑ + VIX↓ + Volume)
• Maximum Bearish: All 4 internals aligned bearish (TICK + ADD↓ + VIX↑ + Volume)
• Strong Bullish: TICK bullish + ADD rising
• Strong Bearish: TICK bearish + ADD falling
• Exhaustion Warning: TICK at extreme levels
• Divergence Warning: TICK and ADD directions conflicting
Understanding the Signal Synthesis
The indicator uses intelligent logic to combine all internals:
"MAXIMUM" Signals require:
• TICK direction (bullish/bearish)
• ADD momentum (rising/falling) in same direction
• VIX direction (falling for bulls, rising for bears)
• Volume elevated (>1.5x average)
"STRONG" Signals require:
• TICK direction (bullish/bearish)
• ADD momentum (rising/falling) in same direction
• (VIX and volume are bonuses but not required)
"MODERATE" Signals:
• TICK showing direction
• But ADD not confirming or contradicting
• Weakest actionable signal
This hierarchy ensures you know exactly how much conviction the market has behind any move.
Technical Details
• Pulls real-time data from NYSE TICK (USI:TICK), NYSE ADD (USI:ADD), and CBOE VIX
• ADD direction calculated using bar-to-bar change with compression detection
• VIX direction calculated using bar-to-bar percentage change
• Volume calculation uses 20-period simple moving average
• Dashboard updates every bar
• No repainting - all calculations based on closed bar data
Who This Is For
• Active daytraders of stocks, futures (ES/NQ), and options
• Scalpers needing quick directional confirmation with multiple internal alignment
• Swing traders looking to time intraday entries with maximum confluence
• Volatility traders who monitor VIX behavior
• Market makers and professionals who trade based on breadth and internals
• Anyone who monitors market internals but wants intelligent synthesis vs raw data
Tips For Success
Trading Philosophy:
• Quality over quantity - wait for "MAXIMUM" signals for best results
• One "MAXIMUM" signal trade is worth five "MODERATE" signal trades
• Gray/neutral is not a sign of missing opportunity - it's protecting your capital
Signal Confidence Levels:
1. MAXIMUM (95%+ confidence) - Trade these aggressively with full size
2. STRONG (80-85% confidence) - Trade these with normal position sizing
3. MODERATE (60-70% confidence) - Only if confirmed by strong technical setup
4. CHOPPY/NEUTRAL - Do not trade, wait for clarity
Advanced Techniques:
• Breadth divergences: Watch for price making new highs while ADD shows ↓ (falling) = major warning
• VIX/Price divergences: Rallies with rising VIX (↑) are usually false moves
• Volume confirmation: "MAXIMUM" signals with 2x+ volume are the absolute best
• Compression zones: When both ADD and VIX show compression (±), expect explosive breakout soon
• Sequential signals: Back-to-back "MAXIMUM" signals in same direction = strong trending day
Common Patterns:
• Opening surge with "MAXIMUM BULL" that shifts to "EXHAUSTION" (yellow) = fade the high
• Selloff with "MAXIMUM BEAR" followed by ADD ↑ (rising) divergence = potential reversal
• Choppy morning followed by "MAXIMUM" signal afternoon = best trending opportunity
Example Scenarios
Perfect Bull Entry:
• Bright green signal box
• TICK: +650
• ADD: +1200 (↑)
• VIX: 18.30 (↓)
• Volume: 2.3x

• TICK: +500
• ADD: +800 (↑)
• VIX: 19.50 (±)
• Volume: 1.2x
• Status: "✓ STRONG BULL" → Good long setup - breadth confirming even without VIX/volume
Caution Bull (Moderate):
• Faded green signal box
• TICK: +400
• ADD: +900 (↓)
• VIX: 20.10 (↑)
• Volume: 0.9x
• Status: "MODERATE BULL" → CAUTION - TICK bullish but breadth deteriorating and VIX rising = weak rally
Exhaustion Warning:
• Yellow signal box
• TICK: +1350 ⚠
• ADD: +2100 (↑)
• VIX: 17.20 (↓)
• Volume: 1.8x
• Status: "⚠ EXHAUSTION" → Take profits or prepare to fade - TICK overextended despite good internals
Divergence Setup (Potential Reversal):
• Faded green signal
• TICK: +300
• ADD: +1800 (↓)
• VIX: 21.50 (↑)
• Volume: 1.6x
• Status: "MODERATE BULL" → WARNING - Price rallying but breadth collapsing and fear rising = distribution
Perfect Bear Entry:

• Gray signal box
• TICK: +50
• ADD: -200 (±)
• VIX: 16.40 (±)
• Volume: 0.7x
• Status: "CHOPPY/NEUTRAL" → STAY OUT - Volatility compression, no conviction, await breakout
Performance Optimization
Best Market Conditions:
• Works excellent in trending markets (up or down)
• Particularly powerful during high-volume sessions (first/last hours)
• "MAXIMUM" signals most reliable during 9:45-11:00 AM and 2:00-3:30 PM ET
Less Effective During:
• Lunch period (11:30 AM - 1:30 PM) - lower volume reduces signal quality
• Low-volatility environments - compression signals dominate
• Major news events in first 5 minutes - wait for internals to stabilize
Recommended Use Cases:
• Scalping: Trade only "MAXIMUM" signals for quick 5-15 minute moves
• Daytrading: Use "MAXIMUM" and "STRONG" signals for position entries
• Swing entries: Use "MAXIMUM" signals for optimal intraday entry timing
• Exit timing: Use "EXHAUSTION" (yellow) warnings to take profits
________________________________________
Pro Tip: Create a dedicated workspace with this indicator on SPY/ES/NQ charts. Set alerts for "MAXIMUM BULL", "MAXIMUM BEAR", and "EXHAUSTION" signals. Most professional traders only trade the "MAXIMUM" setups and ignore everything else - this alone can dramatically improve win rates.

deKoder | Ultra High Timeframe Moving Average & Log StDev BandsdeKoder | Ultra High Timeframe Moving Average & Log StDev Bands
Identify long-term statistical extremes and map the core trend with the deKoder | uHTF MA indicator. Designed for macro analysis, this tool uses ultra high timeframe moving averages and logarithmic standard deviation bands to frame price action, providing clear signals for when an asset is statistically cheap, fairly priced, or expensive.
KEY FEATURES
• Ultra High Timeframe (uHTF) Moving Average:
• Acts as a dynamic long term fair value equilibrium line. Choose from periods like 1-Year, 2-Year, or 'Long Time'.
• Select your MA type: SMA, EMA, Hull MA, or a Rolling VWAP .
• Automatically fetches optimal data (4H/D) for smoother plotting on lower timeframes.
• Probabilistic Logarithmic Bands:
• The bands are calculated using log-standard deviation , creating a framework that adapts to exponential growth. As such, your chart price scale should be set to log.
• ~68% of price action typically occurs between the ±1σ bands (fair value zone).
• Trading in the ±1σ to ±2σ channel is typical in a strongly trending market. Moves towards the ±3σ bands can indicate that the market is becoming overextended. Expect strong price moves here and pay attention for signs of reversal.
• Bitcoin Halving Timeline:
• Integrated vertical lines and labels for all Bitcoin halvings.
• Correlates technical extremes with fundamental scarcity events.
• 4-Year Cycle Visual Aid:
• The background color cycle highlights yearly changes.
• Red years have historically aligned with bear markets, while the subsequent green zone has marked accumulation phases.
• Note: The bands provide the primary information - the background color is a contextual guide based on historical patterns around the BTC 4 year halving cycle that may not persist in future. It's quite possible that the market will act differently going forward considering the new types participants such as ETFs and government reserve funds.
HOW TO USE & INTERPRET
• Fair Value & Extremes:
• Price between ±1σ Bands: The asset is trading within a statistically fair value range.
• Price at +2σ / +3σ Bands: The asset is statistically expensive. Statistically, the price is overextended in this region, although you do NOT want to fade it based only upon this information.
• Price at -2σ / -3σ Bands: The asset is statistically cheap. These zones have frequently coincided with the end of bear markets and profound long-term buying opportunities.
• Dynamic Support & Resistance:
• The uHTF MA and its bands tend to act as support and resistance areas of interest on daily, weekly and monthly charts.
INPUTS & CUSTOMIZATION
• Toggles : Master switch for the MA, Bands, and Halving markers.
• uHTF Moving Average Filter : Select instrument (default: BITSTAMP:BTCUSD), price source, MA length, and type.
• Colours : Fine-tune the appearance of all elements.
PRO TIPS
• While created for Bitcoin, this principle will work well on other high-growth assets and major indices.
• The most reliable signals occur on the Daily, Weekly and Monthly timeframes.
• This is a lagging, macro-filter indicator. It is not for timing short-term entries but for confirming the long-term trend and cycle phase.
"Be Fearful When Others Are Greedy and Greedy When Others Are Fearful." - The deKoder | uHTF MA is here to help you quantify that greed and fear on a macro scale.

🧠 Signal Logic Breakdown
Market Sentiment [NeuraAlgo]
Market Sentiment
This indicator provides a real-time view of market momentum and sentiment by analyzing bullish and bearish impulses using price and volatility-based calculations. It visualizes trends on the chart and offers a dashboard with key statistics.
1.Status Calculation
The Status measures bullish momentum by identifying strong upward impulses.
Equation:
Status Source = Average of lows where(Low - High ) > ATR
For each bar, it checks if the current low minus the high from two bars ago exceeds the Average True Range (ATR) .
All lows that satisfy this condition are collected.
The average of these lows forms the Status Source , representing the level of strong buying pressure.
This helps traders visualize where significant bullish activity is concentrated and gauge upward momentum.
2.Status Source Calculation
Similarly, bearish impulses are detected by checking if highs fall below lows from two bars ago beyond ATR thresholds. The corresponding levels form the reference for selling pressure.
3. Trend Strength and States
Strength is Quantifies how far the price is from bullish or bearish reference levels as a percentage.
Trend States
Stability Phase (Gray): Market is quiet, minimal momentum.
Positive Flow (Green): Bullish pressure dominates; buyers are in control.
Negative Flow (Red): Bearish pressure dominates; sellers lead.
State Transition: Market is shifting; momentum is building.
4. Visuals
Bar colors indicate trend state: green for bullish, red for bearish, gray for neutral.
Filled zones highlight bullish and bearish reference levels for intuitive trend analysis.
5. Dashboard
An optional dashboard displays:
Sentiment: Visual gradient representing bullish or bearish dominance.
Status: Current trend state in concise, human-readable terms.
6. Purpose:
This indicator is designed to identify the current market status and the behavior of the asset by analyzing bullish and bearish impulses. It helps traders understand whether the market shows signs of stability, growth, or decline based on the asset’s price action and volatility.
Understand the asset behavior
Healthy asset behavior
Weak asset behavior
Market Sentiment combines price action, ATR-based volatility, and impulse tracking to provide a clear and actionable view of market conditions. The BullLine equation ensures that only meaningful bullish moves are highlighted, giving traders a reliable reference for momentum and potential entry points.

yangwen1.0This script is an initial concept of mine. I attempted to use the 5-minute chart as ticks for catching bottoms and picking tops, but it's unable to avoid whipsaws. I've tested many methods to evade whipsaws, but they ultimately result in poor entry points, causing me to miss the bottoms and tops of price swings. I sincerely hope someone with better approaches can discuss this with me. Thank you.

Bitcoin Relative Macro StrengthBTC Relative Macro Strength
Overview
The BTC Relative Macro Strength indicator measures Bitcoin's price strength relative to the global macro environment. By tracking deviations from the macro trend, it identifies potentially overvalued and undervalued market phases.
The global macro trend is derived by multiplying the ISM PMI (a widely-used proxy for the business cycle) by a simplified measure of global liquidity.
Calculations
Global Liquidity = Fed Balance Sheet − Reverse Repo − Treasury General Account + U.S. M2 + China M2
Global Macro Trend = ISM PMI × Global Liquidity
Understanding the Global Macro Trend
The global macro trend plot combines the ebb and flow of global liquidity with the cyclical patterns of the business cycle. The resulting composite exhibits strong directional correlation with Bitcoin—or more precisely, Bitcoin appears to move in lockstep with liquidity conditions and business cycle phases.
This relationship has strengthened notably since COVID, likely because Bitcoin's growing market capitalization has increased its exposure to macro forces.
The takeaway is that Bitcoin is acutely sensitive to growth in the money supply (it trends with liquidity expansion) and oscillates with the phases of the business cycle.
Indicator Components
📊 Histogram: BTC/Macro Change
Displays the rolling percentage change of Bitcoin's price relative to the global macro trend.
High values: Bitcoin is outpacing macro conditions (potentially overvalued)
Low values: Bitcoin is underperforming macro conditions (potentially undervalued)
Color scheme:
🟢 Green = Positive deviation
🔴 Red = Negative deviation
📈 Macro Slope Line
Plots the scaled percentage change of the global macro trend itself.
Color scheme:
🔵 Teal = BULLISH (slope positive and rising)
⚪ Gray = NEUTRAL (slope and trend disagree)
🟣 Pink = BEARISH (slope negative and falling)
FieldDescription
BTC/Macro Change : Percentage change of Bitcoin's price vs. the Global Macro Trend (default: 21-bar average)
Macro Trend : Composite assessment combining slope direction and trend momentum. Reads BULLISH when both align upward, BEARISH when both align downward, NEUTRAL when they disagree
Macro Slope : The global macro trend's average slope expressed as a percentage
BTC Valuation : Relative valuation category based on BTC/Macro deviation (Extreme Premium → Extreme Discount)
BTC Price : Current Bitcoin price
How to Use
This indicator is primarily useful for identifying market phases where Bitcoin's price has diverged from the global macro trend.
Identify extremes : Look for periods when the histogram reaches elevated positive or negative levels
Assess valuation : Use the BTC Valuation reading to gauge relative over/undervaluation
Confirm with trend : Check whether macro conditions support or contradict the current price level
Mean reversion : Consider that significant deviations from trend historically tend to revert
Note: This indicator identifies relative valuation based on macro conditions—it does not predict price direction or timing.

• Enters long when +DI is above –DI with ADX above a defined threshold, indicating directional strength to the upside (and the opposite conditions for shorts).
• Other indicators (MACD, SAR, Ichimoku, Support/Resistance, etc.)
Each one must confirm the expected direction before a final signal is allowed.
When all bullish criteria are met simultaneously, the system enters Long; when all criteria indicate a bearish environment, the system enters Short.
In addition, the strategy uses fixed Take Profit and Stop Loss targets for risk control:
Currently: TP around 1.5% and SL around 2.0% per trade, ensuring consistent and transparent risk management on every position.

Simple Line📌 Understanding the Basic Concept
The trend reverses only when the price moves up or down by a fixed filter size.
It ignores normal volatility and noise, recognizing a trend change only when price moves beyond a specified threshold.
Trend direction is visually intuitive through line colors (green: uptrend, red: downtrend).
⚙️ Explanation of Settings
Auto Brick Size: Automatically determines the brick/filter size.
Fixed Brick Size: Manually set the size (e.g., 15, 30, 50, 100, etc.).
Volatility Length: The lookback period used for calculations (default: 14).
📈 Example of Identifying Buy Timing
When the line changes from gray or red to green, it signals the start of an uptrend.
This indicates that the price has moved upward by more than the required threshold.
📉 Example of Identifying Sell Timing
When the line changes from green to red, it suggests a possible downtrend reversal.
At this point, consider closing long positions or evaluating short entries.
🧪 Recommended Use Cases
Use as a trend filter to enhance the accuracy of existing strategies.
Can be used alone as a clean directional indicator without complex oscillators.
Works synergistically with trend-following strategies, breakout strategies, and more.
🔒 Notes & Cautions
More suitable for medium- to long-term trend trading than for fast scalping.
If the brick size is too small, the indicator may react to noise.
Sensitivity varies greatly depending on the selected brick size, so backtesting is essential to determine optimal values.
❗ The Trend Simple Line focuses solely on direction—remove the noise and focus purely on the trend.

Filte Ichimoku1. Indicator Name
Filte Ichimoku
2. One-line Introduction
A smoothed and visually enhanced version of the Ichimoku Cloud that highlights trend direction and strength using adaptive color transparency.
3. General Overview
Filte Ichimoku is a modernized take on the classic Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator, designed for traders who value clarity and minimalism while retaining core Ichimoku functionality.
It calculates traditional components like Tenkan-sen, Kijun-sen, and the Senkou Span A/B, but focuses primarily on visualizing the Kumo (cloud) with enhanced styling.
Instead of raw plots, Filte Ichimoku applies triple-step smoothing to both Senkou spans, creating a soft, wave-like appearance that reflects trend fluidity.
The color of the cloud dynamically adapts based on whether Span A is above or below Span B (bullish/bearish), and its opacity changes according to the intensity of the trend, which is calculated relative to ATR-based volatility.
By forward-shifting the plots and visually blending the cloud, the indicator helps traders quickly identify dominant trends, potential reversals, and consolidation zones.
Its clean design makes it highly compatible with both traditional Ichimoku strategies and modern price action systems.
4. Key Advantages
🌥 Adaptive Ichimoku Cloud
Cloud color and transparency dynamically change based on real trend strength and direction.
📊 Smoother, Cleaner Display
Triple-smoothing on Senkou A and B creates a less noisy, more readable visual output.
📈 Forward Shift Preserved
Maintains the traditional Ichimoku forward-shift logic, helping project future price zones.
🎨 Customizable Trend Colors
Define your own bullish and bearish cloud colors for easy visual alignment with your strategy.
🚫 Noise Reduction via ATR Normalization
Trend intensity is calculated relative to ATR, reducing false positives in low-volatility zones.
🔒 Lightweight & Secure Design
Optimized script avoids exposure of sensitive logic while remaining fast and reliable in live charts.
📘 Indicator User Guide
📌 Basic Concept
Filte Ichimoku emphasizes cloud dynamics (Kumo) to interpret market structure.
Trend direction is derived from the relationship between Senkou Span A and B, while trend strength is measured by their distance relative to ATR.
The smoother curves make it easier to read while preserving all Ichimoku logic.
⚙️ Settings Explained
Tenkan Sen Length: Fast-moving average calculation period (default: 18)
Kijun Sen Length: Medium trend baseline (default: 52)
Senkou Span Length: Long-term cloud boundary (default: 104)
Bull/Bear Color: Set custom colors for bullish or bearish cloud states
📈 Bullish Timing Example
Senkou Span A > Span B, and the cloud appears green with high opacity
Indicates strong uptrend support, especially when price is above both Tenkan and Kijun
📉 Bearish Timing Example
Span B > Span A, cloud turns red and darkens
Suggests bearish dominance; avoid long entries or prepare for short-side setups
🧪 Recommended Use Cases
Use as a trend background layer for existing Ichimoku or price action systems
Combine with breakouts, support/resistance, and momentum indicators
Great for trend filtering in mid- to long-term strategies
🔒 Precautions
Designed for clarity and filtering—not a standalone entry system
In sideways markets, cloud may compress and color changes may become less meaningful
Adjust smoothing lengths cautiously to avoid lagging during volatile swings
Best results come from combining with price structure analysis
Stochastic Hash Strat [Hash Capital Research]# Stochastic Hash Strategy by Hash Capital Research
## 🎯 What Is This Strategy?
The **Stochastic Slow Strategy** is a momentum-based trading system that identifies oversold and overbought market conditions to capture mean-reversion opportunities. Think of it as a "buy low, sell high" approach with smart mathematical filters that remove emotion from your trading decisions.
Unlike fast-moving indicators that generate excessive noise, this strategy uses **smoothed stochastic oscillators** to identify only the highest-probability setups when momentum truly shifts.
---
## 💡 Why This Strategy Works
Most traders fail because they:
- **Chase prices** after big moves (buying high, selling low)
- **Overtrade** in choppy, directionless markets
- **Exit too early** or hold losses too long
This strategy solves all three problems:
1. **Entry Discipline**: Only trades when the stochastic oscillator crosses in extreme zones (oversold for longs, overbought for shorts)
2. **Cooldown Filter**: Prevents revenge trading by forcing a waiting period after each trade
3. **Fixed Risk/Reward**: Pre-defined stop-loss and take-profit levels ensure consistent risk management
**The Math Behind It**: The stochastic oscillator measures where the current price sits relative to its recent high-low range. When it's below 25, the market is oversold (time to buy). When above 70, it's overbought (time to sell). The crossover with its moving average confirms momentum is shifting.
---
## 📊 Best Markets & Timeframes
### ⭐ OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE:
**Crude Oil (WTI) - 12H Timeframe**
- **Why it works**: Oil markets have predictable volatility patterns and respect technical levels
**AAVE/USD - 4H to 12H Timeframe**
- **Why it works**: DeFi tokens exhibit strong momentum cycles with clear extremes
### ✅ Also Works Well On:
- **BTC/USD** (12H, Daily) - Lower frequency but high win rate
- **ETH/USD** (8H, 12H) - Balanced volatility and liquidity
- **Gold (XAU/USD)** (Daily) - Classic mean-reversion asset
- **EUR/USD** (4H, 8H) - Lower volatility, requires patience
### ❌ Avoid Using On:
- Timeframes below 4H (too much noise)
- Low-liquidity altcoins (wide spreads kill performance)
- Strongly trending markets without pullbacks (Bitcoin in 2021)
- News-driven instruments during major events
---
## 🎛️ Understanding The Settings
### Core Stochastic Parameters
**Stochastic Length (Default: 16)**
- Controls the lookback period for price comparison
- Lower = faster reactions, more signals (10-14 for volatile markets)
- Higher = smoother signals, fewer trades (16-21 for stable markets)
- **Pro tip**: Use 10 for crypto 4H, 16 for commodities 12H
**Overbought Level (Default: 70)**
- Threshold for short entries
- Lower values (65-70) = more trades, earlier entries
- Higher values (75-80) = fewer but higher-conviction trades
- **Sweet spot**: 70 works for most assets
**Oversold Level (Default: 25)**
- Threshold for long entries
- Higher values (25-30) = more trades, earlier entries
- Lower values (15-20) = fewer but stronger bounce setups
- **Sweet spot**: 20-25 depending on market conditions
**Smooth K & Smooth D (Default: 7 & 3)**
- Additional smoothing to filter out whipsaws
- K=7 makes the indicator slower and more reliable
- D=3 is the signal line that confirms the trend
- **Don't change these unless you know what you're doing**
---
### Risk Management
**Stop Loss % (Default: 2.2%)**
- Automatically exits losing trades
- Should be 1.5x to 2x your average market volatility
- Too tight = death by a thousand cuts
- Too wide = uncontrolled losses
- **Calibration**: Check ATR indicator and set SL slightly above it
**Take Profit % (Default: 7%)**
- Automatically exits winning trades
- Should be 2.5x to 3x your stop loss (reward-to-risk ratio)
- This default gives 7% / 2.2% = 3.18:1 R:R
- **The golden rule**: Never have R:R below 2:1
---
### Trade Filters
**Bar Cooldown Filter (Default: ON, 3 bars)**
- **What it does**: Forces you to wait X bars after closing a trade before entering a new one
- **Why it matters**: Prevents emotional revenge trading and overtrading in choppy markets
- **Settings guide**:
- 3 bars = Standard (good for most cases)
- 5-7 bars = Conservative (oil, slow-moving assets)
- 1-2 bars = Aggressive (only for experienced traders)
**Exit on Opposite Extreme (Default: ON)**
- Closes your long when stochastic hits overbought (and vice versa)
- Acts as an early profit-taking mechanism
- **Leave this ON** unless you're testing other exit strategies
**Divergence Filter (Default: OFF)**
- Looks for price/momentum divergences for additional confirmation
- **When to enable**: Trending markets where you want fewer but higher-quality trades
- **Keep OFF for**: Mean-reverting markets (oil, forex, most of the time)
---
## 🚀 Quick Start Guide
### Step 1: Set Up in TradingView
1. Open TradingView and navigate to your chart
2. Click "Pine Editor" at the bottom
3. Copy and paste the strategy code
4. Click "Add to Chart"
5. The strategy will appear in a separate pane below your price chart
### Step 2: Choose Your Market
**If you're trading Crude Oil:**
- Timeframe: 12H
- Keep all default settings
- Watch for signals during London/NY overlap (8am-11am EST)
**If you're trading AAVE or crypto:**
- Timeframe: 4H or 12H
- Consider these adjustments:
- Stochastic Length: 10-14 (faster)
- Oversold: 20 (more aggressive)
- Take Profit: 8-10% (higher targets)
### Step 3: Wait for Your First Signal
**LONG Entry** (Green circle appears):
- Stochastic crosses up below oversold level (25)
- Price likely near recent lows
- System places limit order at take profit and stop loss
**SHORT Entry** (Red circle appears):
- Stochastic crosses down above overbought level (70)
- Price likely near recent highs
- System places limit order at take profit and stop loss
**EXIT** (Orange circle):
- Position closes either at stop, target, or opposite extreme
- Cooldown period begins
### Step 4: Let It Run
The biggest mistake? **Interfering with the system.**
- Don't close trades early because you're scared
- Don't skip signals because you "have a feeling"
- Don't increase position size after a big win
- Don't revenge trade after a loss
**Follow the system or don't use it at all.**
---
### Important Risks:
1. **Drawdown Pain**: You WILL experience losing streaks of 5-7 trades. This is mathematically normal.
2. **Whipsaw Markets**: Choppy, range-bound conditions can trigger multiple small losses.
3. **Gap Risk**: Overnight gaps can cause your actual fill to be worse than the stop loss.
4. **Slippage**: Real execution prices differ from backtested prices (factor in 0.1-0.2% slippage).
---
## 🔧 Optimization Guide
### When to Adjust Settings:
**Market Volatility Increased?**
- Widen stop loss by 0.5-1%
- Increase take profit proportionally
- Consider increasing cooldown to 5-7 bars
**Getting Too Few Signals?**
- Decrease stochastic length to 10-12
- Increase oversold to 30, decrease overbought to 65
- Reduce cooldown to 2 bars
**Getting Too Many Losses?**
- Increase stochastic length to 18-21 (slower, smoother)
- Enable divergence filter
- Increase cooldown to 5+ bars
- Verify you're on the right timeframe
### A/B Testing Method:
1. **Run default settings for 50 trades** on your chosen market
2. Document: Win rate, profit factor, max drawdown, emotional tolerance
3. **Change ONE variable** (e.g., oversold from 25 to 20)
4. Run another 50 trades
5. Compare results
6. Keep the better version
**Never change multiple settings at once** or you won't know what worked.

## 📚 Educational Resources
### Key Concepts to Learn:
**Stochastic Oscillator**
- Developed by George Lane in the 1950s
- Measures momentum by comparing closing price to price range
- Formula: %K = (Close - Low) / (High - Low) × 100
- Similar to RSI but more sensitive to price movements
**Mean Reversion vs. Trend Following**
- This is a **mean reversion** strategy (price returns to average)
- Works best in ranging markets with defined support/resistance
- Fails in strong trending markets (2017 Bitcoin, 2020 Tech stocks)
- Complement with trend filters for better results
**Risk:Reward Ratio**
- The cornerstone of profitable trading
- Winning 40% of trades with 3:1 R:R = profitable
- Winning 60% of trades with 1:1 R:R = breakeven (after fees)
- **This strategy aims for 45% win rate with 2.5-3:1 R:R**

- *"Trading Systems and Methods"* by Perry Kaufman (Chapter on Oscillators)
- *"Mean Reversion Trading Systems"* by Howard Bandy
- *"The New Trading for a Living"* by Dr. Alexander Elder
---
## 🛠️ Troubleshooting
### "I'm not seeing any signals!"
**Check:**
- Is your timeframe 4H or higher?
- Is the stochastic actually reaching extreme levels (check if your asset is stuck in middle range)?
- Is cooldown still active from a previous trade?
- Are you on a low-liquidity pair?
**Solution**: Switch to a more volatile asset or lower the overbought/oversold thresholds.
---
### "The strategy keeps losing money!"
**Check:**
- What's your win rate? (Below 35% is concerning)
- What's your profit factor? (Below 0.8 means serious issues)
- Are you trading during major news events?
- Is the market in a strong trend?
**Solution**:
1. Verify you're using recommended markets/timeframes
2. Increase cooldown period to avoid choppy markets
3. Reduce position size to 5% while you diagnose
4. Consider switching to daily timeframe for less noise
---
### "My stop losses keep getting hit!"
**Check:**
- Is your stop loss tighter than the average ATR?
- Are you trading during high-volatility sessions?
- Is slippage eating into your buffer?
**Solution**:
1. Calculate the 14-period ATR
2. Set stop loss to 1.5x the ATR value
3. Avoid trading right after market open or major news
4. Factor in 0.2% slippage for crypto, 0.1% for oil
---
## 💪 Pro Tips from the Trenches
### Psychological Discipline
**The Three Deadly Sins:**
1. **Skipping signals** - "This one doesn't feel right"
2. **Early exits** - "I'll just take profit here to be safe"
3. **Revenge trading** - "I need to make back that loss NOW"
**The Solution:** Treat your strategy like a business system. Would McDonald's skip making fries because the cashier "doesn't feel like it today"? No. Systems work because of consistency.
---
### Position Management
**Scaling In/Out** (Advanced)
- Enter 50% position at signal
- Add 50% if stochastic reaches 10 (oversold) or 90 (overbought)
- Exit 50% at 1.5x take profit, let the rest run
**This is NOT for beginners.** Master the basic system first.
---
### Market Awareness
**Oil Traders:**
- OPEC meetings = volatility spikes (avoid or widen stops)
- US inventory reports (Wed 10:30am EST) = avoid trading 2 hours before/after
- Summer driving season = different patterns than winter
**Crypto Traders:**
- Monday-Tuesday = typically lower volatility (fewer signals)
- Thursday-Sunday = higher volatility (more signals)
- Avoid trading during exchange maintenance windows

Macro Risk Trinity [OAS|VIX|MOVE]The Obsolescence of Single-Metric Risk Models
For decades, the CBOE VIX served as the undisputed "fear gauge" of Wall Street. However, the modern financial market structure has evolved to a point where relying on a single univariate indicator is not only insufficient but potentially dangerous. Two structural shifts have fundamentally altered the predictive power of the VIX:
The 0DTE Blind Spot: The VIX calculates implied volatility based on options expiring in 23 to 37 days. Today, massive institutional hedging flows occur intraday via 0DTE (Zero Days to Expiration) options. This creates a "Gamma Suppression" effect: Market makers hedging these short-term flows often dampen realized volatility intraday, effectively bypassing the VIX calculation window. This leads to a suppression of the index, masking risk even during fragile market phases (Bandi et al., 2023).
Goodhart’s Law: "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure." Because algorithmic volatility targeting strategies and risk-parity funds use the VIX as a mechanical trigger to deleverage, market participants have developed an incentive to suppress implied volatility via short-volatility strategies to prevent triggering cascading margin calls.
The Theoretical Framework: Why this Model Works
To accurately navigate this complex environment, the Macro Risk Trinity moves beyond simple price action. It employs a multivariate analysis of the financial system's three core pillars: Rates, Credit, and Equity. The logic is derived from three specific areas of financial research:
1. The Origin of Shock: Volatility Spillover Theory
Macroeconomic shocks typically do not start in the stock market; they originate in the US Treasury market. The MOVE Index acts as the "VIX for Bonds." Research by Choi et al. (2022) demonstrates that bond variance risk premiums are a leading indicator for equity distress. Since the "Risk-Free Rate" is the denominator in every Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model, instability here forces a repricing of all risk assets downstream.
2. The Foundation: Structural Credit Models (Merton)
While stock prices are often driven by sentiment and liquidity, corporate bond spreads ( High Yield Option Adjusted Spread ) are driven by balance sheets and math. Based on the seminal Merton Model (1974), equity can be viewed as a call option on a firm's assets, while debt carries a short put option risk.
The Thesis: If the VIX (Equity) is low, but OAS (Credit) is widening, a divergence occurs. Mathematically, credit spreads cannot widen indefinitely without eventually pulling equity valuations down. This indicator identifies that specific divergence.
3. The Fragility: Knightian Uncertainty
By monitoring the VVIX (Volatility of Volatility), we detect demand for tail-risk protection. When the VIX is suppressed (low) but VVIX is rising, it signals that "Smart Money" is buying Out-of-the-Money crash protection despite calm waters. This is often a precursor to liquidity events where the VIX "uncoils" violently.
The Solution: Dual Z-Score Normalization
You cannot simply overlay the VIX (an index) with a Credit Spread (a percentage). To make them comparable, this script utilizes a Dual Z-Score Engine.
It calculates the statistical deviation from both a Fast (Quarterly/63-day) and a Slow (Yearly/252-day) mean. This standardizes all data into a single "Stress Unit," allowing us to see exactly when Credit Stress exceeds Equity Fear.
Decoding the Macro Regimes
The indicator aggregates these data streams to visualize the current market regime via the chart's background color:
Systemic Shock (Red Background): The critical convergence. Both Credit Spreads (Solvency) and Equity Volatility (Fear) spike simultaneously beyond extreme statistical thresholds (> 2.0 Sigma). Correlations approach 1, and liquidity evaporates.
Macro Risk / Rates Shock (Yellow Background): Equities are calm, but the MOVE Index is panicking. A warning signal from the plumbing of the financial system regarding inflation or Fed policy errors.
Credit Stress (Maroon Background): The "Silent Killer." The VIX is low (often suppressed), but Credit Spreads (OAS) are widening. This signals a deterioration of the real economy ("Slow Bleed") while the stock market is in denial.
Structural Fragility (Purple Background): VIX is low, but VVIX is rising. A sign of excessive leverage and "Volmageddon" risk (Gamma Squeeze).
Bull Cycle (Green Background): The "Buy the Dip" signal. Even if prices fall and VIX spikes, the background remains green as long as Corporate Credit (OAS) remains stable. This indicates the sell-off is technical, not fundamental.
Technical Specifications
Engineered for the Daily (1D) timeframe.
Institutional Lookbacks: 63 Days (Quarterly) / 252 Days (Yearly).
OAS Lag Buffer: Includes logic to handle the ~24h reporting delay of Federal Reserve (FRED) data to prevent signal flickering.

Author's Note: The Reality of Markets & Overfitting
While this tool is built on robust academic principles, we must address the reality of quantitative modeling: There is no Holy Grail.
This indicator relies on Z-Scores, which assume that future volatility distributions will somewhat resemble the past (Mean Reversion). In data science, calibrating lookback periods (like 63/252 days) always carries a risk of Overfitting to past cycles.
Markets are adaptive systems. If the correlation between Credit Spreads and Equity Volatility breaks (e.g., due to massive fiscal intervention/QE or new derivative products), signals may temporarily diverge. This tool is designed to identify stress, not to predict the future price. It will rhyme with the market, but it will not always repeat it perfectly.
Use it as a compass to gauge the environment, not as an autopilot for your trading.
Use responsibly and always manage your risk.
