Obsidians Gold RevengeMany traders (including institutional desks) track lunar cycles on Gold (XAUUSD) because of the psychological impact on market sentiment. The common theory—often attributed to methods like Gann analysis—is:
🌑 New Moon: Often correlates with Market Bottoms (Buy Signals) or "New Beginnings."
🌕 Full Moon: Often correlates with Market Tops (Sell Signals) or "Exhaustion."
Here is a script that mathematically calculates the Moon Phase based on the lunar synodic month (approx. 29.53 days). It will plot these events on your chart so you can visually backtest if Gold respects these cycles.
How to use this for testing
Add it to your Chart: Apply it to the XAUUSD (Gold) chart.
Timeframe: This works best on 4-Hour (4H) or Daily (1D) charts. (On 15m charts, the moon phase covers many candles, so the label will appear on the specific candle where the phase officially "switched").
What to look for:
Look at the Dark Blue (New Moon) areas. Did price form a bottom or start a rally there?
Look at the Yellow (Full Moon) areas. Did price peak and reverse downward there?
Note: Lunar cycles are considered a "timing tool" rather than a directional indicator. They often indicate when a reversal might happen, but you should combine this with your Institutional Candle zones to confirm the direction!

Deviation Momentum For Loop | Lyro RSThe Deviation Momentum For Loop is a directional momentum tool that evaluates the persistence of price deviation from a moving average over a historical range using a custom loop-based scoring function. It quantifies relative momentum strength by comparing current deviation to previous values, assigning a net score used to assess trend bias, reversals, and volatility-adjusted strength.
Key Features
Deviation-Based Momentum: Calculates standardized deviation from a selected moving average by subtracting the MA from price and normalizing via standard deviation and a scaling constant. This standardization adjusts for volatility and creates a consistent scoring base across assets and timeframes.
Historical For-Loop Scoring: Implements a user-defined for-loop function that compares current deviation to values from earlier bars (configurable range). Each comparison adds or subtracts from a cumulative score based on whether current deviation exceeds historical ones, producing a dynamic momentum read.
Threshold-Based Signal Logic: Applies user-defined thresholds for long and short signals. If the loop score exceeds the long threshold, a bullish bias is inferred; if it drops below the short threshold, a bearish bias is indicated. These thresholds are plotted for visual clarity.
Multi-Palette Visual System:
Predefined Palettes – Choose from Classic, Mystic, Accented, or Royal schemes for bullish and bearish colors.
Custom Colors – Toggle on custom color selection to manually define bullish (UpC) and bearish (DnC) tones.
Dynamic Visuals – Oscillator line, threshold markers, background shading, bar and candle coloring are applied in real time based on trend state
.
Glow and Overlay Effects: Layered glow lines and optional bar/candle coloring reinforce signal strength and trend status directly on the chart.
Built-In Alerts: Provides alert conditions when the for-loop score crosses above or below the defined thresholds, enabling automated monitoring of trend conditions.
How It Works
MA Calculation – Applies the selected moving average to the chosen price source (e.g., close, open, high). Offers 16 moving average types including SMA, EMA, WMA, TEMA, JMA, FRAMA, ZLSMA, KAMA, and others via the LyroRS/LMAs/1 library.
Deviation Computation – Measures the deviation of price from its moving average, normalized by standard deviation and scaled by a fixed constant factor to account for volatility.
Loop Function – Iterates from user-defined indices (From → To) and compares current deviation to past deviations. Increments score for each instance where current > past, decrements when current < past. The resulting value is plotted as the primary oscillator.
Signal Logic – Long and short threshold values are configurable inputs. Crossing above the long threshold signals bullish bias; crossing below the short threshold signals bearish pressure.
Color Coding & Visual Feedback
Palette or custom colors reflect oscillator's directional state.
Additional glow lines increase signal emphasis.
Background shading highlights crossovers with mid-threshold for enhanced visibility.
Optional bar and candle coloring aligns price visualization with indicator signals.
Practical Use
Momentum Confirmation – Use a score rising above the long threshold as a potential bullish signal; falling below the short threshold may indicate bearish strength.
Volatility Normalization – Standardized deviation ensures consistency across assets of different volatility profiles.
Multi-Timeframe Adaptation – The wide selection of moving averages and loop depth settings allows calibration for scalping, swing, or long-term analysis.
Visual Clarity – Color-coordinated candles, bars, oscillator lines, and background simplify interpretation of signal context and trend structure.
Customization
Select from 16 moving average types to control sensitivity and smoothing.
Adjust loop depth (From/To) to define how far back deviation is compared.
Set custom threshold levels to reflect your preferred sensitivity to momentum shifts.
Customize visuals with predefined palettes or manual color settings for full chart integration.

SMI Histogram State VisualizationStochastic Momentum Index (SMI) – State Histogram
One issue I always had with the standard SMI was how difficult it can be to clearly distinguish EMA crosses, especially when the oscillator is compressed near overbought or oversold levels. Important information is there — it’s just not always easy to read quickly.
This script is my solution to that problem.
By transforming the SMI into a state-based histogram, momentum, exhaustion, and EMA crosses become visually obvious at a glance.
How It Works
The Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) measures price position relative to the midpoint of its recent high–low range, which makes it:
symmetric around zero
smoother than a classic stochastic
well suited for momentum analysis
Instead of a traditional line oscillator, the SMI is displayed as a color-coded histogram, while an EMA of the SMI is used as a confirmation signal.
Color-Coded Momentum States
The histogram dynamically changes color based on momentum state and EMA position:
🔴 Red – Oversold & Below EMA
Strong bearish momentum, downtrend still intact.
🟠 Orange – Oversold & Above EMA
Bearish momentum weakening, early bullish reversal potential.
🟢 Green – Overbought & Above EMA
Strong bullish momentum, trend continuation.
🟡 Yellow – Overbought & Below EMA
Bullish momentum weakening, early bearish reversal potential.
Faded colors represent neutral or transition phases near the zero line.
Best Use Cases
Quickly identifying EMA crosses inside overbought / oversold zones
Spotting early reversals before price reacts
Confirming momentum continuation
Filtering noise in ranging markets
This indicator is non-repainting and works on all timeframes.
Inputs
%K Length – Lookback window used to define the price range
%D Length – Smoothing applied to the momentum calculation
EMA Length – Confirmation smoothing applied to the SMI
Notes
This indicator is intended as a visual momentum and confirmation tool, not a standalone trading system.
Always use it in confluence with price action, market structure, and proper risk management.

AI Reversal Probability Zones (Dual Mode)This custom-built indicator is designed to detect potential bullish and bearish reversals by aggregating multiple high-probability signals into a unified score. It blends momentum, volatility, trend deviation, and candle structure into a single visual line, enhanced by dynamic color zones that represent the probability and strength of a market reversal.
Daily/Weekly/Monthly Support & Resistanceindicator plots support and resistance levels derived from historical price action. It analyzes higher‑timeframe candles (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) and ranks levels by strength and number of touches, then draws the most relevant levels around the current price. If no strong levels are found, it falls back to touch‑based levels so you still get meaningful lines.
How to Use:
Add the script to any chart.
Choose Levels Timeframe:
Auto (recommended): follows the chart timeframe (D/W/M).
D / W / M: force a specific timeframe.
Set lookback windows:
Lookback Days (D) – default 200
Lookback Weeks (W) – default 104
Lookback Months (M) – default 60
Adjust sensitivity:
Min Strength – filters weaker levels.
Volume Multiplier – requires higher volume for stronger levels.
Time Decay – gives more weight to recent data.
Min Touches (Fallback) – used when no strong levels are found.
Optional: enable Show Debug Info to see how many levels are detected.

BTC - Satoshis Altcoin Graveyard OVERVIEW
The Satoshi's Altcoin Graveyard (SAG) is a macro-statistical engine designed to solve the problem of Survivorship Bias . It is a well-known phenomenon in the crypto markets that the "Top 10" list is in a constant state of flux. If you look at historical data from CoinMarketCap (CMC) year by year, you will see a revolving door of projects that once seemed "too big to fail" disappearing into obscurity. Meanwhile, Bitcoin has remained the undisputed #1 since inception.
While most traders have a "gut feeling" that Altcoins eventually depreciate against Bitcoin, I believe in measuring it and drawing it on a chart for better visibility. By locking in specific "Cohorts" of market leaders from the past, we can track their inevitable decay through the Satoshi Sieve .
THE 13-COIN STATISTICAL BUCKET
To ensure an objective, non-biased audit, each cohort (we look at 2018, 2020 and 2022) is constructed using a fixed market-cap methodology from the snapshot date (excluding stablecoins):
• The Core: The Top 10 non-stablecoin assets at that time by Marketcap.
• The Risk Alpha: Representative samples from the Top #25, #50, and #100 ranks. (By including lower-ranked "riskier" alts, we capture the full statistical decay of the market, not just the "Blue Chips.")
TECHNICAL ARCHITECTURE
This script is engineered to push the boundaries of the Pine Script engine. TradingView enforces a hard limit of 40 unique data requests . By tracking 3 cohorts of 13 assets plus the Bitcoin base, this indicator utilizes exactly 40/40 requests , providing the maximum possible data density in a single chart window.
THE SPS CONCEPT (Survival Probability Score)
The SPS measures the Breadth of Survival . It answers: "How many coins from this year (the year of the snapshot) are actually outperforming BTC?"
We use a binary logic system to determine if a coin is "Winning" or "Losing" against the only benchmark that matters: Bitcoin.
• The Status Formula: Status = Current_Alt_BTC_Ratio >= Entry_Alt_BTC_Ratio ? 1 : 0 . This means: Every single day, at the Daily Close , the script compares the current Alt/BTC ratio to the fixed ratio from the snapshot date. If the coin is worth more in Bitcoin today than it was back then, it is assigned a "1" (a Win). If it has lost value against Bitcoin, it gets a "0" (a Loss).
• The SPS Line: SPS Line = (Sum of 'Wins' / 13) * 100 This means: We add up all the "Winners" for that specific day and turn it into a percentage. For example, if the Aqua line is at 7.69% on your chart, it confirms that on that day , exactly 1 out of the 13 coins was successfully beating Bitcoin, while the other 12 were underperforming.
THE PERFORMANCE MATRIX
In the top-right corner, we provide a Weighted Portfolio Simulation . This answers the financial question: "If I swapped 1 BTC into an equal-weight basket of these 13 coins on the snapshot day, what is my BTC value today?".
• Value < 1.0 BTC: You lost purchasing power compared to holding Bitcoin.
• Value > 1.0 BTC: You successfully achieved "Alpha" over the benchmark.
HOW TO READ THE CHART
• The Waterfall: Lines generally trend downward as the "Satoshi Sieve" filters out assets that cannot maintain their BTC-relative value.
• Dynamic Winners: We dynamically print the names of the current survivors at the tip of each line. If a cohort shows "None," the graveyard is full.
HOW TO READ THE MATRIX
• The BTC Target: Any portfolio value in the matrix below 1.0 BTC represents a failed altcoin rotation.
• Class of 2018: A portfolio value near 0.15 BTC at the current date, means a 85% loss rate.
• Class of 2020: A portfolio value near 0.77 BTC at the current date, means an approx 20 % loss rate.
• Class of 2022: A portfolio value near 0.31 BTC at the current date, means an approx 70% loss rate.
DIFFERENCE FROM AN ALTCOIN INDEX
Standard Altcoin Indexes (like my ALSI Index ) "rebalance" by removing losers and adding new winners. This is deceptive. The Altcoin Graveyard never rebalances . It forces you to watch the "losers" decay, providing a realistic look at the long-term opportunity cost of "Buy and Hold" for anything other than Bitcoin.
CONCLUSION
The data revealed by the Satoshi Sieve leads to a singular, sobering "Lesson Learned": Picking the right coin to outperform Bitcoin is not just difficult—it is statistically improbable over a long-term horizon.
While the "Risk-Reward" of altcoins is often marketed as having higher upside, the Altcoin Graveyard proves that for the vast majority of assets, the reward does not justify the risk of total portfolio erosion in BTC terms.
• The Mathematical Odds: If you picked a Top 10 coin in 2018, your chance of outperforming BTC today is effectively 0%.
• The Rotation Trap: Most investors "HODL" these assets into the graveyard, hoping for a return to previous ATHs that never comes because the liquidity has already moved on to the next "Class" of winners.
The final conclusion is clear: Diversification into altcoins is often just a slow-motion transfer of wealth back to Bitcoin. If you cannot identify the 1-out-of-13 that survives the Sieve, your best risk-adjusted move has historically been to simply hold the benchmark.

First Candle Session Levels 1, 2, and 3. Please read the second paragraph, to literally find the power of 3 at each of those starting candles, (Time and space).
FIRST CANDLE SESSION LEVELS
This indicator automatically marks the high and low of the first candle from up to three customizable time periods and projects those levels forward as horizontal lines across your chart.
What It Does:
You specify a time (for example, 10:03 AM in your timezone), and the indicator captures the high and low of the first candle at that time. It then draws horizontal lines at those exact price levels that extend forward, showing you how price interacts with these levels for the rest of the day.
Why Use It:
The first candle at a specific time often sets important support and resistance levels. These levels frequently act as barriers where price bounces, breaks through for strong moves, or returns to test later. By marking these levels automatically, you can focus on trading rather than manually drawing lines.
Key Features:
Track 3 Different Times - Monitor three separate times simultaneously with independent settings for each
Adjustable Candle Count - Use just the first candle (default) or combine multiple candles (up to 60) to create a wider range
Full Customization - Each time period has its own color settings, line styles, and visual options so you can easily distinguish between them
Extends Forward - Lines project into the future so you can see when price approaches these key levels in real-time
Any Timezone - Set the timezone for each time period to match your local market or any global market
How Traders Use It:
Traders use these levels as reference points for entries and exits. Some watch for price to break above the high or below the low as signals for directional moves. Others use the high and low as boundaries for range trading. Many use these levels simply as decision points for managing their positions.
The indicator works on any timeframe and is effective on any liquid instrument where specific times are significant to your trading strategy.
Use the setting to place the first candle at these times.

Magic Hour Range + Window Levels (0/50/75/100 + Extensions)This indicator plots one or more “Magic Hour” ranges (by ET hour) by drawing the hour’s high/low box, then extending an aligned post-hour analysis window for a set number of hours. Inside that window it overlays key reversion targets—0% (High), 50% (Mid), 100% (Low), optional 25%/75%—plus optional extension levels beyond the range (±25/50/75/100% and extras). All levels are clipped to the analysis window for a clean, session-by-session view of range, targets, and extensions.

ATR Stop LinesATR Stop Lines
Plots dynamic stop-loss levels on the price chart based on ATR (Average True Range). Optionally adjusts stop distance based on volatility regime.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 WHAT IT DOES
Green line — Long stop (Close − ATR × multiplier)
Red line — Short stop (Close + ATR × multiplier)
Lines move with price and volatility. When regime-adjust is enabled, stop distance widens in high volatility and tightens in low volatility.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📐 REGIME-ADJUSTED MULTIPLIERS
When enabled, the multiplier auto-adjusts based on the ATR percentile:
LOW (< 25th pctl) — 1.0× ATR — Tight stops, small moves expected
NORMAL (25–50th pctl) — 1.5× ATR — Standard distance
HIGH (50–75th pctl) — 2.0× ATR — Wider to avoid noise
EXTREME (> 75th pctl) — 2.5× ATR — Widest, or skip the trade
Disable regime-adjust to use a fixed multiplier for all conditions.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📈 HOW TO USE
Entry: Note stop line level when entering a trade. Set stop-loss at or beyond that level.
Trailing: Move stop to new line level as price advances in your favor.
Sizing: Wider stop = smaller position to maintain constant risk.
Example:
BTC Daily, ATR = \$2,000, Regime = HIGH (2.0×)
Entry: \$50,000 → Long stop: \$46,000 / Short stop: \$54,000
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 STATUS LABEL
VOL — Current regime (LOW / NORMAL / HIGH / EXTREME)

Timeframe Continuity BarsTimeframe Continuity Bars is a script that is extremely simple for good reason
So please, do not remove this post because it seems 'simple'
Now that's over with. Lets dive in to understand what timeframe continuity IS and what this indicator does.
Timeframe continuity is defined by 4 or more timeframes and it is the relationship of the last price traded to those 4 opening prices. Standard timeframe continuity would be using the M,W,D,60min timeframes.
The reason we use MTF analysis is because of the truth of what price is and how it works.
Price movement is SOLELY caused due to aggressive buying / selling. Some may attempt to refute this however at the end of the day. If the price is at 100.00 it is because a buyer is willing to buy there and a seller is willing to sell there. If those market participants did not want to buy or sell at 100.00 price would go up or down to meet the more aggressive participant.
So what does this look like you may ask...
If an aggressive buyer takes the offer we will see prices go up if they were willing to pay more than the last guy who took the offer.
So price may go from 100.00 to 100.01 because you decided to invest in that stock that day at that time with a market order
This same thing occurs when every other institution creates, adds, reduces, or exits a position. They have to buy or sell and they have to either do it aggressively or do it passively by sitting on the bid / ask and waiting.
So since this is true, we know that the relationship to the opening price is extremely important. This is because if price is above it's open that means buyers were willing to take the offer and buy at higher prices. If price is below it's open it means that sellers were willing to sell at the bid and they sold at lower prices.
So any candlestick chart is simply an aggregation of this aggressive buying/selling that is taking place at all times.
By using the timeframe continuity bars indicator we can measure the distance from the current open across 4 or more timeframes.
By doing this we can identify monthly participation groups, weekly participation groups, daily participation groups, and 60min participation groups.
When all those groups align green or red this is considered full timeframe continuity. Where the monthly weekly daily 60min groups are all taking the offer and buying, or all selling at the bid!
When this aligns this is when price is for CERTAIN going in one direction.
However, It is subject to change every 60 minutes as the 60min determines if those monthly weekly daily buyers are present RIGHT NOW.
So if the 60min changes we go into direct conflict against the month/week/day groups.
If we see the 60min and day align we go into direct conflict against the month/week
if the 60min day and week are red we over-take the monthly group for control. At the time of the week day and 60 being red we have ZERO evidence of the previous monthly buyer/seller that was present.
Now that you understand a little bit about continuity.. Check it out on the chart!
P.S Here is some tips
1) it is not about just all timeframes aligning, we want to see long green / red bars!
2) The opens reset on a cyclical basis. Each day, each week, each month... When the new timeframes open we will see timeframes have the SAME open. When the opens are the same price we have LESS evidence versus having all opens seperate.
3) Investors can use the Y Q M W as their 4 timeframes to see when institutional buying is occurring [go do a case study on AMEX:GLD and AMEX:SLV weekly timeframe with these settings]
4) You need to add 4 separate indicators and change the timeframes. It is ideal to then save this layout!
5) The best way to do price analysis is using #TheStrat across all 4 timeframes instead of one timeframe with this indicator. This is soley a tool we use to show changing of control between participation groups!

Reversal Detection v3.0 - Real-Time Pro (Non-Repainting)═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
REVERSAL DETECTION PRO v3.0 - NON-REPAINTING
Adaptive Zigzag Reversal Detection for Scalpers & Day Traders
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CHART EXAMPLE
The indicator is shown running on MNQ1! (Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100
futures) on a 2-minute chart. The indicator works on all symbols
and timeframes, but is optimized for futures scalping on 1-5
minute charts.
WHY I BUILT THIS
Most reversal indicators out there repaint like crazy, flipping
signals after the fact and making you second-guess every trade.
Plus they're too noisy in choppy markets or way too laggy in
trends, so I kept missing entries or getting faked out. I wanted
something solid that sticks to its guns without repainting and
adapts to volatility without me tweaking it every 5 minutes.
This indicator solves those problems by using an adaptive zigzag
algorithm that adjusts to market volatility automatically. Once a
reversal signal appears, it's locked in place - no repainting, no
disappearing signals. The ATR-based sensitivity system means it
works across different market conditions without constant adjustment.
WHAT YOU'LL SEE ON YOUR CHART
When you add this indicator, here's what shows up:
- GREEN LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bullish reversal
confirmed at swing low
- RED LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bearish reversal
confirmed at swing high
- HORIZONTAL LINES extending from each reversal = Reference for
stops and targets
- PREVIEW LABELS (lighter colors) = Potential reversals forming in
real-time (optional)
- CANDLE COLORS: Green for bullish trends, red for bearish, purple
for neutral
- PURPLE BOXES = Supply/demand zones marking reversal areas
- INFO TABLE (top corner) = Shows sensitivity, current ATR,
threshold, and trend status
The indicator uses three EMAs (9/14/21 periods) to determine trend
direction, which drives the candle coloring system. This helps you
see whether you're in a bullish, bearish, or choppy market at a
glance.
HOW IT WORKS
The core reversal detection uses a zigzag calculation that tracks
price swings and identifies reversals when price moves by a
dynamically calculated threshold. The reversal amount is determined
by taking the maximum of three values:
1. Percentage-based threshold (adjusts to instrument price level)
2. Absolute price movement threshold (minimum move required)
3. ATR-based threshold (adapts to current volatility)
This multi-factor approach ensures the indicator works consistently
across different assets and market conditions. The non-repainting
mechanism uses confirmed bar data - once a pivot is detected at a
swing high or low, the label and horizontal line are permanently
locked at that exact wick price.
Five sensitivity presets automatically adjust the ATR multiplier:
- Very High (0.8x ATR) = More signals, captures small moves
- High (1.2x ATR) = Active trading
- Medium (2.0x ATR) = Balanced (default)
- Low (2.8x ATR) = Filters noise
- Very Low (3.5x ATR) = Only major reversals
Advanced users can select "Custom" to manually tune ATR multiplier,
percentage threshold, and calculation method.
HOW I USE IT
I mainly trade /MNQ futures on 1-5 minute charts for scalping -
that's my bread and butter. The indicator works decent on other
stuff like stocks or forex too, but I dial sensitivity up for
faster scalps during volatile sessions.
My typical trade setup:
1. Wait for a confirmed REVERSAL label (green for long, red for
short)
2. Check that it lines up with the EMA trend color (bullish candles
for longs, bearish for shorts)
3. If it's a "strong" signal where the reversal hits during a trend
flip, that's my green light
4. Quick check for nearby supply/demand zones to avoid fighting
them
5. Enter with a tight stop below/above the reversal line
6. Target 1:1 or 2:1 risk/reward, usually out in 5-10 minutes
The horizontal lines from each reversal give me logical stop
placement levels, and the supply/demand zones help identify
potential profit targets or areas to avoid.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION
Signal Modes:
- Confirmed Only = Most reliable, only shows locked-in signals
(recommended)
- Confirmed + Preview = Shows both confirmed and potential signals
- Preview Only = For testing/development
Sensitivity Presets:
Start with "Medium" and adjust based on your trading style:
- Scalping volatile sessions = "High" or "Very High"
- Day trading = "Medium"
- Swing trading = "Low" or "Very Low"
Display Options:
- Choose candle display type (Solid, Trend, Bars, Volume, None)
- Show/hide supply/demand zones
- Adjust zone box extension length
- Customize info table position and size
- Control maximum lines displayed
Alert System:
- Bullish/Bearish reversal alerts
- EMA trend change alerts
- Strong signal alerts (reversal + trend alignment)
- "Any reversal" catch-all alert
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST
Don't rely on this indicator alone. Always pair it with your own
price action or volume confirmation, because no indicator is
perfect. Avoid cranking sensitivity too high in ranging markets or
you'll get whipped. Test on demo first, and remember it's
non-repainting so signals are final, but preview mode can tease
you into early entries if you're not patient.
Risk management is key - don't size up just because a signal looks
good. This indicator helps identify potential reversals, but YOU
still need to manage your trades, set proper stops, and control
position size based on your account risk tolerance.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
Unlike simple pivot indicators or manual support/resistance drawing:
- Adapts automatically to volatility changes (ATR-based)
- Never repaints - signals lock in place permanently
- Reversal detection works with trend context (EMAs)
- Supply/demand zones mark key structural levels
- One-click sensitivity adjustment via presets
- Works across multiple timeframes and instruments
The zigzag reversal algorithm adapts to volatility using ATR, while
the EMA system provides trend context so you're not trading
reversals blindly against the trend. The supply/demand zones help
identify key levels where price has reversed before. It's built
specifically for active traders who need reliable, non-repainting
signals.
BEST PRACTICES
✅ DO:
- Start with "Medium" sensitivity on demo account
- Wait for confirmed signals before entering
- Use horizontal lines for stop placement
- Check trend context (candle colors) before trading reversals
- Combine with volume analysis or price action
- Test different sensitivity settings for your instrument
❌ DON'T:
- Trade every signal blindly without context
- Use "Very High" sensitivity in choppy/ranging markets
- Ignore the trend direction (candle colors)
- Enter on preview labels (they can disappear)
- Skip proper risk management
- Overtrade just because signals appear

ATR Volatility RegimeATR Volatility Regime
A volatility classification indicator that uses ATR (Average True Range) percentile ranking to identify LOW , NORMAL , HIGH , or EXTREME volatility conditions.
Displayed as a separate pane oscillator (0–100 scale) with colored zones.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
💡 WHY THIS INDICATOR?
Most volatility indicators show raw ATR — a number without context. Is ATR = 50 high or low? Depends on the asset and recent history.
This indicator answers: "Is current volatility high or low for THIS asset, right now?"
What it adds over standard ATR:
Percentile context — Compares current ATR to its own history
Regime classification — Actionable labels instead of raw numbers
Visual zones — Instant read without interpretation
Optional MTF — Lock to a fixed timeframe while viewing another
Auto-adapts — Works on any asset without manual threshold tuning
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📐 CORE CONCEPTS
ATR (Average True Range)
Measures volatility in price units — how much an asset typically moves per bar. Directionless (magnitude only, not direction).
Calculation:
True Range = the greatest of:
High − Low (current bar's range)
|High − Previous Close| (gap up captured)
|Low − Previous Close| (gap down captured)
ATR = Moving average of True Range over N bars (default: 14)
Percentile Rank (Pctl)
Answers: "What percentage of historical values is the current value greater than?"
Pctl = 0% → Lowest ATR in lookback period (extreme compression)
Pctl = 50% → Median ATR (typical volatility)
Pctl = 100% → Highest ATR in lookback period (extreme expansion)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 WHAT IT DOES
Classifies current volatility into four regimes:
LOW (< 25th percentile) — Compression, breakout likely brewing
NORMAL (25th–50th percentile) — Typical market conditions
HIGH (50th–75th percentile) — Elevated volatility, use caution
EXTREME (> 75th percentile) — Rare expansion, tighten stops or stay flat
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 DISPLAY COMPONENTS
Oscillator Line (0–100)
ATR percentile rank over time. Color matches regime:
Blue = LOW
Gray = NORMAL
Orange = HIGH
Red = EXTREME
Zone Backgrounds
Colored bands at threshold levels for instant visual reference.
Status Label
VOL — Current regime
ATR — Raw ATR value (for stop sizing)
Pctl — Percentile rank (0–100%)
TF — Active timeframe (chart or fixed)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📈 HOW TO USE
LOW Volatility (Pctl < 25%):
Market compressed — "calm before the storm"
Watch for breakout setups
Pctl = 0% often precedes significant moves
NORMAL Volatility (Pctl 25–50%):
Typical conditions
Standard position sizing and stops
HIGH Volatility (Pctl 50–75%):
Elevated movement — reduce size
Widen stops to avoid noise
EXTREME Volatility (Pctl > 75%):
Rare, intense conditions
Avoid new entries or tighten risk
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚙️ SETTINGS
ATR Settings:
ATR Length (default: 14) — Period for ATR calculation
Percentile Lookback (default: 100) — Bars for percentile ranking
Timeframe:
Use Fixed Timeframe (default: off) — Lock calculation to specific TF
Fixed Timeframe (default: D) — TF to use when fixed mode enabled
Thresholds:
Low Threshold (default: 25)
High Threshold (default: 50)
Extreme Threshold (default: 75)
Display:
Show Zone Background — Toggle colored fills
Show Status Label — Toggle info label
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📋 SUGGESTED LOOKBACK BY ASSET
Crypto — 100 bars (fast regime shifts)
Stocks — 252 bars (one trading year)
Forex — 100–150 bars
Commodities — 150–200 bars (seasonal patterns)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔔 ALERTS
Vol → EXTREME
Vol → HIGH
Vol → LOW
Vol exits HIGH
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
💡 PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
Stop-Loss Sizing:
Use raw ATR for stops. Example: Stop = Entry − (1.5 × ATR)
Position Sizing:
Reduce size when percentile is HIGH or EXTREME.
Entry Filtering:
LOW regime = prepare for breakout
EXTREME regime = avoid new entries
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📝 NOTES
Works on any timeframe — adapts to chart or locks to fixed TF
ATR is non-directional — magnitude only
Percentile auto-adapts to each asset's volatility profile
Not a standalone signal — combine with trend/regime filters
