Dynamic S/R Levels: Edge FinderOverview
The Dynamic S/R Levels: Edge Finder indicator is designed to identify dynamic support and resistance levels based on historical price action. It uses a combination of price extremes (highs and lows) over user-defined lookback periods, weighted moving averages (WMAs), and touch-count analysis to provide actionable insights into key market levels.
This tool is ideal for traders who want to:
Identify dynamic support and resistance zones.
Understand the strength of these levels based on price touches.
Make informed decisions using clear, adaptive levels.
How It Works
Dynamic Levels Calculation:
The indicator calculates dynamic support levels using the lowest lows and dynamic resistance levels using the highest highs over user-defined lookback periods (e.g., 20, 40, 60 bars, etc.).
These levels are updated dynamically as new price data becomes available.
Touch Count Analysis:
The indicator counts how many times the price has touched or come close to each support/resistance level within the lookback period.
Levels with more touches are considered stronger and are highlighted accordingly.
Weighted Moving Averages (WMAs):
The indicator uses 50-period and 100-period WMAs to identify the closest support/resistance levels to the current trend.
Levels near these WMAs are given additional weight, as they are more likely to act as significant barriers.
Level Merging:
If two support or resistance levels are too close to each other (based on the minimum distance percentage), the weaker level (with fewer touches) is removed to avoid clutter.
Visualization:
Support levels are displayed as dashed red lines, and resistance levels are displayed as dashed blue lines.
Each level is labeled with its corresponding touch count, allowing traders to quickly assess its strength.
How to Interpret the Indicator
Strong Support/Resistance Levels:
Levels with higher touch counts (e.g., 5, 10, or more) are considered stronger and are more likely to hold in the future.
Use these levels to plan entries, exits, or stop-loss placements.
Proximity to WMAs:
Levels closest to the 50-period or 100-period WMA are more significant, especially in trending markets.
These levels often act as dynamic barriers where price reactions are more likely.
Breakouts and Rejections:
If the price breaks through a strong resistance level, it may indicate a potential bullish trend.
If the price rejects a strong support level, it may indicate a potential bearish trend.
Always confirm breakouts or rejections with additional analysis (e.g., volume, candlestick patterns).
Level Merging:
Merged levels indicate areas of high confluence, where multiple support/resistance zones overlap.
These areas are particularly important for decision-making, as they represent stronger market reactions.
Key Features
Customizable Lookback Periods: Adjust the lookback periods for each dynamic level to suit your trading style.
Touch Count Labels: Quickly identify the strength of each level based on the number of price touches.
Adaptive Levels: The indicator dynamically updates levels based on recent price action.
Clean Visualization: Levels are automatically merged to avoid clutter and provide a clear view of the market structure.
Usage Tips
Trend Identification: Combine the indicator with trend-following tools (e.g., moving averages, trendlines) to confirm the overall market direction.
Risk Management: Use the identified levels to set stop-loss orders or take-profit targets.
Timeframe Flexibility: The indicator works on all timeframes, but it is particularly effective on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) for more reliable levels.
Example Scenarios
Bounce Trade:
If the price approaches a strong support level (high touch count) and shows signs of rejection (e.g., bullish candlestick patterns), consider a long position with a stop-loss below the support level.
Breakout Trade:
If the price breaks above a strong resistance level with high volume, consider a long position with a target at the next resistance level.
Range-Bound Market:
In a sideways market, use the support and resistance levels to identify range boundaries and trade bounces between them.

Rolling Angled Volume Profile [Trendoscope®]🎲 Volume Profile Indicators
🎯Traditional Volume Profile
Volume profile indicators visually represent the distribution of volume across price levels. These indicators typically operate on horizontal price levels, making them effective in identifying supply and demand zones in ranging markets. However, they are less useful in trending markets where price movements follow a slope.
🎯The Need for Angled Volume Profiles
Just as support and resistance levels differ from trendlines, volume profile indicators require an equivalent method to account for volume distribution along a sloped trajectory. This would enable more accurate volume analysis in trending markets.
We identified the need of Angled Volume profile and have already published few indicators that implements the concept.
Angled Volume Profile calculates volume distribution along a slope. Users interact with the indicator by selecting the starting point, after which the volume profile is calculated for the selected trajectory.
Volume Forks is another tool that extends angled volume profile analysis, aligning volume profiles along the trajectory of pitchforks.
🎲 Rolling Volume Profile Indicator
The Rolling Volume Profile offers a new approach to angled volume profile calculations, addressing some limitations of earlier implementations:
🎯 Rolling Calculation
The volume profile is calculated for the last N bars of the instrument
The slope of the profile lines is determined by the closing prices of the starting and ending bars
Profiles are drawn in the direction of price movement between the start and end bars.
🎯 Dynamic Updates
As new bars are added, the calculations are updated, and the profile is redrawn based on the latest data.
This dynamic behavior earns it the name "Rolling Volume Profile."
🎯 Advantages Over Earlier Versions
Unlimited Profile Lines : Unlike previous implementations limited to 500 profile lines, this indicator uses polyline objects, overcoming the restriction.
Live Updates : Previous angled volume profile tools lacked real-time updates when new bars appeared. This limitation is resolved in the Rolling Volume Profile Indicator.
The Rolling Volume Profile provides an efficient and scalable solution for analyzing volume in trending markets.
🎯 Indicator Settings
Simple settings include few customisable options
Candle Spread Oscillator (CS0)The Candle Spread Oscillator (CSO) is a custom technical indicator designed to help traders identify momentum and directional strength in the market by analyzing the relationship between the candle body spread and the total candle range. This oscillator provides traders with a visually intuitive representation of price action dynamics and highlights key transitions between positive and negative momentum.
How It Works:
Body Spread vs. Total Range:
The CSO calculates the body spread (difference between the close and open price) and compares it to the total range (difference between the high and low price) of a candle.
The ratio of the body spread to the total range represents the proportion of price movement driven by directional momentum.
Smoothed Oscillator:
To remove noise and enhance clarity, the ratio is smoothed using a Hull Moving Average (HMA). The smoothing period can be adjusted through the "Smoothing Period" input, enabling traders to tailor the indicator to their preferred timeframes or strategies.
Gradient Visualization:
A gradient coloring is applied to the oscillator, transitioning smoothly between colors (e.g., fuchsia for negative momentum and aqua for positive momentum). This provides traders with a clear, intuitive visual cue of market behavior.
Visual Features:
Oscillator Plot:
The oscillator is displayed as an area-style plot, dynamically colored using a gradient. Positive values are represented in shades of aqua, while negative values are in shades of fuchsia.
Midline (0 Level):
A horizontal midline is plotted at the zero level, serving as a key reference point for identifying transitions between positive and negative momentum.
Background Highlights:
The chart background is subtly colored to match the oscillator's state, enhancing the visual emphasis on current momentum conditions.
Alerts for Key Crossovers:
The CSO comes with built-in alert conditions, making it highly actionable for traders:
Cross Up Alert: Triggers when the oscillator crosses above the midline (0), signaling a potential shift into positive momentum.
Cross Down Alert: Triggers when the oscillator crosses below the midline (0), indicating a potential transition into negative momentum.
These alerts allow traders to stay informed about critical market shifts without constantly monitoring the chart.
How to Use:
Trend Identification:
When the oscillator is above the midline and positive, it indicates that price action is moving with bullish momentum.
When the oscillator is below the midline and negative, it reflects bearish momentum.
Momentum Strength:
The magnitude of the oscillator (its distance from the midline) helps traders gauge the strength of the momentum. Stronger moves will push the oscillator further from zero.
Potential Reversals:
Crossovers of the oscillator through the midline can signal potential reversals or shifts in market direction.
Customization:
Adjust the Smoothing Period to adapt the sensitivity of the oscillator to different timeframes. A lower smoothing period reacts faster to price changes, while a higher smoothing period smooths out noise.
Best Use Cases:
Momentum Trading: Identify periods of sustained bullish or bearish momentum to align with the trend.
Reversal Signals: Spot transitions in market direction when the oscillator crosses the midline.
Confirmation Tool: Use the CSO alongside other indicators (e.g., volume, trendlines, or moving averages) to confirm trading signals.
Key Inputs:
Smoothing Period: Customize the sensitivity of the oscillator by adjusting the lookback period for the Hull Moving Average.
Gradient Range: The color gradient transitions between defined thresholds (-0.1 to 0.2 by default), ensuring a smooth visual experience.
[Why Use the Candle Spread Oscillator?
The CSO is a simple yet powerful tool for traders who want to:
Gain a deeper understanding of price momentum.
Quickly visualize shifts between bullish and bearish trends.
Use clear, actionable signals with customizable alerts.
Disclaimer: This indicator is not a standalone trading strategy. It should be used in combination with other technical and fundamental analysis tools. Always trade responsibly, and consult a financial advisor for personalized advice.
Noteworthy CandlesticksThis indicator identifies noteworthy candlestick formations by analyzing the proportions of a candlestick’s body, wicks, and shadows in relation to its total range. It highlights specific patterns to assist in analyzing potential market activity.
Key Features
Lower Wick Candles: It identifies candlesticks with long lower wicks, which may indicate price rejection at lower levels.
Upper Wick Candles: It detects candlesticks with long upper wicks, which may indicate price rejection at higher levels.
Doji Candles: It recognizes candlesticks with small bodies relative to their range, often associated with market indecision.
Definitions of Wicks and Shadows
In traditional candlestick charting, the terms wick and shadow are interchangeable, referring to the thin lines extending above and below the candlestick's body. However, this indicator uses distinct definitions:
Wicks represent the distance from the edges of the candlestick body (the open and close prices) to the high or low.
Shadows measure the distance from the closing price to the high or low of the candlestick.
By distinguishing between wicks and shadows, the indicator provides separate insights into price extremes (wicks) and price behavior around the close (shadows).
How It Works
The indicator evaluates each candlestick against user-defined thresholds for wick and shadow length. It compares the overall range of the candlestick to the ATR (Average True Range) to ensure patterns are relevant in the context of recent volatility.
Candlesticks with noteworthy lower wicks are marked with a symbol below the bar.
Candlesticks with noteworthy upper wicks are marked with a symbol above the bar.
Doji candles are marked with symbols both above and below the bar.
Applications
This indicator can assist traders in identifying potential areas of price reversal, rejection, or indecision. It can also provide additional context when used alongside other technical tools like volume analysis, trendlines, or support and resistance levels.

No Wick Setup Indicator
**No Wick Setup Indicator**
This is a custom trading indicator designed to identify and signal potential buy and sell opportunities based on candlestick patterns with no wicks. Specifically, it looks for candles with no wicks at the bottom (bullish setup) or no wicks at the top (bearish setup). Here's how it works:
**Key Features:**
- **Bullish Setup**: A green candlestick with no bottom wick (i.e., the open price is equal to the low price of the candle) is considered a potential bullish signal. A trendline is drawn at the bottom of this candle. When the market price returns to this trendline, a buy signal is generated.
- **Bearish Setup**: A red candlestick with no top wick (i.e., the open price is equal to the high price of the candle) is considered a potential bearish signal. A trendline is drawn at the top of this candle. When the market price returns to this trendline, a sell signal is generated.
- **Timeframe**: This indicator works exclusively on the **30-minute timeframe**.
**How It Works:**
1. When a candlestick pattern with no bottom wick (bullish setup) is identified, a trendline is drawn at the low of the candlestick.
2. When a candlestick pattern with no top wick (bearish setup) is identified, a trendline is drawn at the high of the candlestick.
3. The indicator then tracks the market price and waits for it to return to the respective trendline level.
4. **Buy Signal**: When the market price touches or goes below the bullish trendline, a **Buy** signal is displayed on the chart with an upward arrow.
5. **Sell Signal**: When the market price touches or goes above the bearish trendline, a **Sell** signal is displayed on the chart with a downward arrow.
**Visual Elements:**
- **Trendlines**: Horizontal lines drawn at the bottom (bullish) or top (bearish) of the candlesticks with no wick.
- **Buy/Sell Labels**: Labels indicating "Buy" or "Sell" appear when the market price returns to the trendline.
**Why Use This Indicator?**
- This indicator helps identify specific price levels where the market might reverse or consolidate based on candlestick structure, offering potential entry points for trades.
- It allows traders to focus on price action and market behavior without relying on more complex indicators.
RSI + Normalized Fisher Transform with SignalsThis indicator combines three tools for market analysis: the Relative Strength Index (RSI), the RSI's moving average, and the Fisher Transform. RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements, helping identify overbought and oversold conditions. The RSI moving average is a smoothed version of the RSI that filters noise and confirms trends. The Fisher Transform is a mathematical technique that transforms price data into a Gaussian normal distribution, making it easier to identify turning points. It has been normalized to the same scale as the RSI (0-100) for consistency.
Purpose
The goal of this indicator is to identify potential buy and sell opportunities with varying degrees of strength (strong and weak). By combining the RSI, its moving average, and the Fisher Transform, the indicator ensures signals are based on both momentum and reversals, making it highly versatile across different market conditions.
Key Features
This indicator provides strong and weak buy and sell signals. A strong buy occurs when the RSI crosses above its moving average while both the RSI and its moving average are oversold (below the default threshold of 30), and the Fisher Transform reverses direction within the same or prior bar while also being oversold. A weak buy occurs when the Fisher Transform is oversold, and the RSI crosses above its moving average while its value is between the default oversold threshold (30) and 50. A strong sell occurs when the RSI crosses below its moving average while both the RSI and its moving average are overbought (above the default threshold of 70), and the Fisher Transform reverses direction within the same or prior bar while also being overbought. A weak sell occurs when the Fisher Transform is overbought, and the RSI crosses below its moving average while its value is between 50 and the default overbought threshold (70).
The indicator includes customizable thresholds and lengths. Users can adjust the oversold and overbought thresholds to suit their trading style. The RSI length, moving average length, and Fisher Transform length are also customizable. The Fisher Transform is scaled to the RSI’s range of 0-100 to simplify analysis and signal interpretation.
How to Use the Indicator
On the chart, you will see the RSI line in blue, the RSI moving average in orange, and the Fisher Transform in purple. Horizontal lines at the default oversold (30) and overbought (70) levels mark critical zones for signals. Adjust these thresholds in the indicator settings as needed.
Strong buy signals are shown as larger, darker green arrows below the price. Weak buy signals are small lime arrows below the price. Strong sell signals are larger, darker red arrows above the price. Weak sell signals are small fuchsia arrows above the price.
Signal Interpretation
A strong buy indicates a highly favorable buying opportunity. This typically occurs when the asset is in a downtrend but shows signs of reversal, particularly in oversold zones. A weak buy suggests a potential buying opportunity but with less conviction, often when the market is neutral to slightly bearish but showing upward momentum. A strong sell indicates a highly favorable selling opportunity, usually occurring when the asset is in an uptrend but shows signs of reversal, particularly in overbought zones. A weak sell suggests a potential selling opportunity but with less conviction, often in neutral to slightly bullish markets showing downward momentum.
Practical Tips
Avoid using signals in isolation. Combine this indicator with other tools such as trendlines, moving averages, or support/resistance levels for greater accuracy. Adjust the parameters for different assets to match their volatility. For volatile assets, consider wider thresholds like 20/80 for oversold/overbought levels. For less volatile assets, tighter thresholds like 35/65 may be more appropriate. Use higher timeframes to confirm signals before trading on lower timeframes. Be cautious in sideways markets, as both RSI and the Fisher Transform perform better in trending conditions.
Instructions for Adjustments
To change the oversold or overbought levels, open the indicator settings by clicking the gear icon and modify the "Oversold Threshold" and "Overbought Threshold" values. To adjust lengths for RSI and Fisher Transform, update the "RSI Length," "RSI Moving Average Length," and "Fisher Transform Length" settings. If needed, toggle signal visibility by enabling or disabling specific arrows (Strong Buy, Weak Buy, Strong Sell, Weak Sell) in the "Style" tab.
Best Practices
Risk management is essential. Always set appropriate stop-loss levels and position sizes based on your risk tolerance. Backtest the indicator on historical data to understand its performance and behavior for your chosen asset and timeframe. Combining this indicator with volume or volatility analysis (Bollinger Band Width, for example) can help confirm signal validity.
This indicator simplifies decision-making by identifying high-probability trading opportunities using a combination of momentum, trend, and reversals. Follow these instructions to fully utilize its capabilities without needing to analyze the underlying code.

5-Minute YEN Pivot Bars 1.0The 5-Minute YEN Pivot Bars indicator is designed to identify and highlight low-range pivot bars on 5-minute charts, specifically tailored for Yen-based pairs (e.g., GBPJPY, USDJPY). By focusing on precise pip thresholds, this tool helps traders detect potential pivot points within specific trading sessions, while avoiding inside bars and other noise often seen in low-volatility conditions. This can be particularly useful for trend traders and those looking to refine their entry points based on intraday reversals.
Key Features:
- Customized Pip Thresholds for Yen Pairs:
The indicator is pre-configured for Yen pairs, where 1 pip is typically represented by 0.01. It applies these thresholds:
- Limited Range: 4 pips or less between open and close prices.
- High/Low Directionality: At least 3 pips from the close/open to the bar's high or low.
- Open/Close Proximity: 4 pips or less between open and close.
- Inside Bar Tolerance: A tolerance of 3 pips for inside bars, helping reduce false signals from bars contained within the previous bar's range.
- Session-Specific Alerts:
- The indicator allows you to enable alerts for the European Session (6:00-12:00), American Session (12:00-17:00), and London Close (17:00-20:00). You can adjust these times based on your own trading hours or timezone preferences via a time-shift setting.
- Receive real-time alerts when a valid bullish or bearish pivot bar is identified within the chosen sessions, allowing you to respond to potential trade opportunities immediately.
- Time Shift Customization:
- Adjust the "Time Shift" parameter to account for different time zones, ensuring accurate session alignment regardless of your local time.
How It Works:
1. Pivot Bar Identification:
The indicator scans for bars where the difference between the open and close is within the "Limited Range" threshold, and both open and close prices are close to either the high or the low of the bar.
2. Directional Filtering:
It requires the bar to show strong directional bias by enforcing an additional distance between the open/close levels and the opposite end of the bar (high/low). Only bars with this directional structure are considered for highlighting.
3. Exclusion of Inside Bars:
Bars that are completely contained within the range of the previous bar are excluded (inside bars), as are consecutive inside bars. This filtering is essential to avoid marking bars that typically indicate consolidation rather than potential pivot points.
4. Session Alerts:
When a valid pivot bar appears within the selected sessions, an alert is triggered, notifying the trader of a potential trading signal. Bullish and bearish signals are differentiated based on whether the close is near the high or low.
How to Use:
- Trend Reversals: Use this indicator to spot potential trend reversals or pullbacks on a 5-minute chart, especially within key trading sessions.
- Entry and Exit Points: Highlighted bars can serve as potential entry points for traders looking to capitalize on short-term directional changes or continuation patterns.
- Combine with Other Indicators: Consider pairing this tool with momentum indicators or trendlines to confirm the signals, providing a comprehensive analysis framework.
Default Parameters:
- Limited Range: 4 Pips
- High/Low Directionality: 3 Pips
- Open/Close Proximity: 4 Pips
- Inside Bar Tolerance: 3 Pips
- Session Alerts: Enabled for European, American, and London Close sessions
- Time Shift: Default 6 (adjustable to align with different time zones)
This indicator is specifically optimized for Yen pairs on 5-minute charts due to its pip calculation.
Entropy-Based Adaptive SuperTrendOverview:
Introducing the Entropy-Based Adaptive SuperTrend – a groundbreaking trading indicator designed to adapt dynamically to market conditions using market entropy. This enhanced SuperTrend indicator adjusts its sensitivity according to the level of chaos (or order) in price movements, providing more stable signals during volatile periods and more responsive signals when the market becomes orderly.
Key Features:
Entropy-Adaptive Mechanism: By incorporating an entropy measure, this indicator estimates the degree of unpredictability in the market. During high entropy periods (more chaotic), signals are made less sensitive, while during low entropy periods, the indicator reacts more quickly to price changes.
Adaptive ATR Multiplier: Unlike traditional SuperTrend indicators that use a fixed ATR multiplier, this version calculates a dynamic ATR multiplier based on the entropy score, ensuring more flexibility and adaptability in setting stop levels.
Visual Clarity: The indicator is overlayed on the price chart with customizable visual elements. The bullish and bearish trends are color-coded for ease of use, and optional entry signals ("L" for long and "S" for short) are plotted to clearly mark potential entry opportunities.
Alerts for Key Opportunities : Never miss an opportunity with built-in alerts for buy and sell signals. Traders can easily configure these alerts to be notified instantly when market conditions trigger a new trend.
How It Works:
Entropy Calculation: The entropy of the price data is calculated over a user-defined period, giving an indication of the degree of randomness in the price movements. The result is then smoothed to reduce noise and create a meaningful trend indication.
Dynamic ATR Adjustment: The ATR (Average True Range) multiplier, which controls the distance of the trailing stop, is adjusted based on the entropy score. This allows the SuperTrend line to widen in chaotic times, reducing false signals, while tightening in orderly times, allowing quicker trend captures.
Parameters Explained:
Entropy Settings: Control the sensitivity of entropy calculations, including the look-back period, number of bins for price distribution, and smoothing length.
Adaptive Settings: Adjust how the indicator adapts to different levels of entropy, including the adaptation period and the filtering weight.
SuperTrend Settings : Customize the ATR period and the dynamic multiplier range to fine-tune the trailing stops for your trading style.
Visual Settings: Choose your preferred colors for bullish and bearish trends, and decide if you want the entry labels displayed directly on the chart.
Use Cases:
Swing Traders can utilize the indicator to capture trend reversals while filtering out the noise during high entropy periods.
Intraday Traders can adapt the settings for shorter time frames to benefit from dynamic adjustments that reduce overtrading and false signals.
Risk Management: The entropy-based adaptive feature provides an edge in risk management by reducing sensitivity during times of increased chaos, thus helping to limit unnecessary trades.
How to Use It:
Look for entry labels ("L" for long, "S" for short) to identify potential opportunities.
Use the color-coded trendlines to determine market bias: greenish hue for bullish trends, reddish hue for bearish trends.
Customize the input settings to align with your preferred market timeframe and risk profile.
Alerts & Notifications:
Built-in alerts notify you of significant trend changes. Simply enable these alerts to receive updates when a new long or short opportunity is detected, helping you stay ahead without needing to watch the screen constantly.
Customization Tips:
Longer Timeframes : Increase the Entropy Period to better capture macro trends in high timeframe charts.
Higher Volatility Markets: Increase the ATR Max Multiplier to ensure stops are set farther away during high entropy.
Lower Volatility Markets: Use a lower ATR Base Multiplier and tighter entropy thresholds to capture rapid price movements.
Final Thoughts:
The Entropy-Based Adaptive SuperTrend indicator merges traditional trend-following logic with an adaptive mechanism driven by market entropy, aiming to address the challenges of whipsaws and false signals common in conventional SuperTrend setups. This indicator offers an intelligent and flexible way to track market trends, suitable for both beginners and experienced trade

Trend CCITrend CCI (TCCI) Indicator
Description:
The Trend CCI (TCCI) indicator is a unique combination of the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and the Average True Range (ATR), designed to identify trends and market reversals with a refined sensitivity to price volatility. The indicator plots the CCI, adjusted by an ATR filter, and color-codes the trendline to signal uptrends and downtrends.
How It Works:
This indicator uses the CCI to measure price momentum and an ATR-based filter to smooth out market noise, making it easier to detect significant shifts in the market trend. Key parameters such as the ATR Period, ATR Multiplier, and CCI Period have been carefully chosen to optimize the indicator's performance:
1. ATR Period (default: 18)
The ATR Period determines the number of periods used to calculate the **Average True Range**, which reflects market volatility. In this case, an **ATR Period of 18** has been selected for several reasons:
Balance between responsiveness and noise reduction : A period of 18 strikes a balance between being responsive to recent price movements and filtering out minor fluctuations. Shorter ATR periods might be too reactive, creating false signals, while longer periods might miss shorter-term trends.
Adaptable to various market conditions : An 18-period ATR is suitable for both intraday and swing trading strategies, making it versatile across different time frames.
Standard industry practice : Many traders use ATR settings between 14 and 20 periods as a convention for detecting reliable volatility levels.
2. ATR Multiplier (default: 1.5)
The ATR Multiplier is applied to the ATR value to define how sensitive the indicator is to volatility. In this case, a multiplier of 1.5 has been chosen:
Avoiding whipsaws in low volatility markets: By setting the multiplier to 1.5, the indicator filters out smaller, less significant price movements, reducing the likelihood of whipsaw signals (i.e., false trend reversals during periods of low volatility).
Optimizing signal accuracy: A moderate multiplier like 1.5 ensures that the indicator only generates signals when the price moves a significant distance from the average range. Higher multipliers (e.g., 2.0) may ignore valid opportunities, while lower multipliers (e.g., 1.0) might create too many signals.
Enhancing trend clarity : The multiplier’s role in widening the range allows the indicator to respond more clearly during periods of strong trends, reducing signal noise and false positives.
3. CCI Period (default: 63)
The CCI Period defines the number of periods used to calculate the Commodity Channel Index. A 63-period CCI is selected based on the following considerations:
Smoothing the momentum calculation: A longer period, such as 63, is used to smooth out the CCI and reduce the effects of short-term price fluctuations. This period captures longer-term momentum, making it ideal for identifying more significant market trends.
-Filtering out short-term noise: While shorter CCI periods (e.g., 14 or 20) may be more reactive, they tend to produce more signals, some of which may be false. A 63-period CCI focuses on stronger and more sustained price movements, providing fewer but higher-quality signals.
Adapted to intermediate trading: A 63-period CCI aligns well with traders looking for medium-term trend-following strategies, striking a balance between long-term trend identification and responsiveness to significant price shifts.
How to Use:
Green Area: When the trendline turns green, it signals that the CCI is positive, reflecting upward momentum. This can be interpreted as a buy signal, indicating the potential for long positions or continuing bullish trades.
Red Area: When the trendline turns red, it signals that the CCI is negative, reflecting downward momentum. This can be interpreted as a sell signal, indicating potential short positions or bearish trades.
ATR Filter: The ATR helps reduce false signals by ignoring minor price movements. Traders can adjust the ATR Multiplier to make the indicator more or less sensitive based on market conditions. A lower multiplier (e.g., 1.2) may increase signal frequency, while a higher multiplier (e.g., 2.0) reduces it.
Originality:
The Trend CCI (TCCI) stands out due to its combination of the CCI and ATR. While many indicators simply plot raw CCI values, this script enhances the CCI’s effectiveness by incorporating an ATR-based volatility filter. This ensures that only significant trends trigger signals, making it a more reliable tool in volatile markets. The choice of the ATR period, multiplier, and CCI period ensures a refined balance between trend detection and noise reduction, distinguishing it as a powerful trend-following indicator.
Additionally, the visual aspect—using color-coded trendlines that dynamically shift between green and red—simplifies the interpretation of market trends, offering traders a clear and immediate understanding of trend direction and momentum strength.
Final Recommendations:
Use in Trending Markets The TCCI is most effective in trending markets, where its signals align with broader market momentum. In sideways or low-volatility markets, consider adjusting the ATR multiplier or using other complementary indicators to confirm the signals.
Risk Management: Always integrate robust risk management practices, such as using stop-loss orders and position sizing, to protect against sudden market reversals or periods of heightened volatility.
Adjust for Volatility: Consider the volatility of the asset being traded. In highly volatile assets, a higher ATR multiplier (e.g., 2.0) may be necessary to filter out noise, while in more stable assets, a lower multiplier (e.g., 1.2) might generate earlier signals.
By using the Trend CCI (TCCI) indicator with a deeper understanding of its key parameters, traders can better identify trends, reduce noise, and improve their overall decision-making in the markets.

Linear and Logarithmic Fibonacci Levels and (Price&Time) FansIntroduction
The Fibonacci Retracement tool is a go-to for traders looking to spot potential support and resistance levels. By measuring the distance between swing highs and lows, you can apply Fibonacci ratios like 0.236, 0.382, and 0.618 to predict key market levels.
Traditionally, these levels are set by dividing this distance into equal parts—known as Linear Levels. A more refined approach, Logarithmic Price and Time Levels, divides the distance into proportionally equal segments. Plus, this indicator now includes Fibonacci fans, adding another layer of analysis by projecting potential price levels using trendlines based on Fibonacci ratios.
This tool makes it easier to identify both Linear and Logarithmic levels while also leveraging Fibonacci fans for a more complete market view.
Applications
Logarithmic Levels and Fibonacci fans are ideal for volatile markets. In crypto, they’re especially effective for BTCUSDT (check out the wick from January 23, 2024). They also help spot accumulation and distribution patterns in high-volume altcoins like FETUSDT . In traditional markets, they’re useful for tracking stocks like TSLA and NVDA with extreme price swings, as well as indices in inflation-affected markets like XU100 , or recession-hit currency pairs like JPYUSD .
How to Use
This indicator is intuitive and similar to TradingView’s Fibonacci Tool. Select your reference levels (Level 1 and Level 0), then tweak the settings to customize your analysis, including adding Fibonacci fans for extra insights.
Why It’s Different
Unlike TradingView’s tool, which forces you to switch to a logarithmic scale (messing with other indicators and trend lines), this indicator lets you view both Linear and Logarithmic levels—and Fibonacci fans on Price and Time Series—without changing your chart’s scale. The original Fibonacci Code was derived from zekicanozkanli, modified and upgraded to plot fib front and back fans as well. Due to TV Max Plot restrictions I need to publish just Front and Back and Front Fibs separately.

Leading MACDThe Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator is one of the most popular and versatile tools used by traders to identify potential buy and sell signals. It helps traders determine the strength and direction of a trend by comparing different moving averages of a security's price. The traditional MACD uses two exponential moving averages (EMAs), a fast EMA (typically 12 periods) and a slow EMA (typically 26 periods), along with a signal line (typically a 9-period EMA of the MACD line) to generate trading signals.
Our "Custom MACD with Leading Length" script for TradingView enhances the traditional MACD by introducing an additional smoothing factor called the "leading length." This customization aims to reduce noise and provide a potentially earlier indication of trend changes, making it a valuable tool for traders seeking to optimize their trading strategies.
- **Purpose:** This additional smoothing factor is designed to reduce noise and provide a potentially leading signal, enhancing the accuracy of trend identification.
## How It Works
1. **Calculate the MACD Line:**
The MACD line is calculated by subtracting the slow EMA from the fast EMA. This difference represents the convergence or divergence between the two EMAs.
2. **Calculate the Signal Line:**
The signal line is an EMA of the MACD line. This additional smoothing helps to generate clearer buy and sell signals based on crossovers with the MACD line.
3. **Calculate the Histogram:**
The histogram represents the difference between the MACD line and the signal line. It visually indicates the strength and direction of the trend. A positive histogram suggests a bullish trend, while a negative histogram indicates a bearish trend.
4. **Apply Leading Length Smoothing:**
To incorporate the leading length, the script applies a simple moving average (SMA) to both the MACD and signal lines using the leading length parameter. This additional smoothing helps to further reduce noise and potentially provides earlier signals of trend changes.
## Benefits of the Leading MACD
### Reduced Noise
The leading length parameter adds an extra layer of smoothing to the MACD and signal lines, helping to filter out market noise. This can be particularly beneficial in volatile markets, where frequent price fluctuations can generate false signals.
### Potential Early Signals
By smoothing the MACD and signal lines, the leading length can help to provide earlier indications of trend changes. This can give traders a potential edge in entering or exiting trades before the broader market reacts.
### Enhanced Trend Identification
The combination of the traditional MACD with the leading length smoothing can enhance the accuracy of trend identification. Traders can use this tool to confirm the strength and direction of trends, making it easier to make informed trading decisions.
### Versatility
The Custom MACD with Leading Length can be applied to various timeframes and asset classes, including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. Its adaptability makes it a valuable tool for traders with different strategies and preferences.
## Practical Applications
### Buy Signal
A typical buy signal occurs when the MACD line crosses above the signal line. With the additional smoothing provided by the leading length, traders might receive this signal slightly earlier, allowing them to enter a long position sooner. This can be particularly advantageous in capturing the beginning of a bullish trend.
### Sell Signal
Conversely, a sell signal is generated when the MACD line crosses below the signal line. The leading length smoothing can help to provide this signal earlier, enabling traders to exit a long position or enter a short position before the trend reversal is fully recognized by the market.
### Divergence Analysis
Traders can also use the Custom MACD with Leading Length for divergence analysis. Bullish divergence occurs when the price makes a new low, but the MACD line forms a higher low. This suggests that the downward momentum is weakening, potentially leading to a bullish reversal. Bearish divergence is the opposite, where the price makes a new high, but the MACD line forms a lower high, indicating a potential bearish reversal.
### Confirmation Tool
The Custom MACD with Leading Length can be used in conjunction with other technical indicators to confirm trading signals. For example, traders might use it alongside support and resistance levels, trendlines, or other momentum indicators to validate their trade entries and exits.
## Conclusion
The Custom MACD with Leading Length is a powerful enhancement of the traditional MACD indicator. By introducing an additional smoothing factor, it aims to reduce noise and provide earlier signals of trend changes. This makes it a valuable tool for traders seeking to improve their market analysis and trading strategies.
Whether you are a day trader, swing trader, or long-term investor, the Custom MACD with Leading Length can help you make more informed decisions by offering clearer insights into market trends. Its adaptability to different timeframes and asset classes further enhances its utility, making it a versatile addition to any trader's toolkit.
Experiment with the parameters to find the optimal settings that suit your trading style and preferences. Use the Custom MACD with Leading Length to gain a deeper understanding of market dynamics and enhance your trading performance.

Liquidity Trendline With Signals [BigBeluga]The Liquidity Trendline is an indicator designed to identify potential breakouts by utilizing pivot points. These pivotal moments can trigger significant market reactions, either by breaking out or by serving as breakout and retest signals.
🔶 FEATURES
The indicator contains the following features:
Period of the calculation
Padding (spacing between the 2 lines)
Signal for breakouts
🔶 USAGE
As shown in the example, breakouts can be powerful points to see reversions in the market and can lead to a lot of volatility in the market.
When a trendline is broken, a signal will be plotted; the user can disable/enable those signals.
A trendline is formed when 2 consecutive pivot points are found, each of them lower or higher than the previous one. this is the anchor point for our trend line that we will use to spot rejection or breakouts
The delay in the creation of those trend lines will be the period input used to find the pivot point on the chart.
Another good example is using these trendlines as simple retests.
Prices bouncing on top of them will suggest a possible continuation of the current trend.
We can filter out stronger breakouts by looking at how many times the price has rejected the trendline, more rejections will result in more liquidity once the price breaks it.
Signals are plotted on the chart for every breakout that happens.
Another good utility is simply using them as retest once the price breaks those levels and holding above/below them, indicating a possible support or resistance area used for confluence
Here is another good example of how we can correctly spot price deviating from our trendline and spotting powerful continuation in price.
As said before we can filter out bad and good breakouts simply by looking at how many times rejected from those levels.
More rejection will result in a stronger reaction
🔶 CONCLUSION
This script is as simple as that and can be used in a few ways to spot reversals, price continuation, or even sentiment in price (bullish or bearish).
