Strength of Divergence Across Multiple Indicators (+CMF&VWMACD)Modified Version of Strength of Divergence Across Multiple Indicators by reees
Purpose:
This Pine Script indicator is designed to identify and evaluate the strength of bullish and bearish divergences across multiple technical indicators. Divergences occur when the price of an asset is moving in one direction while a technical indicator is moving in the opposite direction, potentially signaling a trend reversal.
Key Features:
1. Multiple Indicator Support: The script now analyzes divergences for the following indicators:
* RSI (Relative Strength Index)
* OBV (On-Balance Volume)
* MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence)
* STOCH (Stochastic Oscillator)
* CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
* MFI (Money Flow Index)
* AO (Awesome Oscillator)
* CMF (Chaikin Money Flow) - Newly added
* VWMACD (Volume-Weighted MACD) - Newly added
2. Customizable Divergence Parameters:
* Bullish/Bearish: Enable or disable the detection of bullish and bearish divergences independently.
* Regular/Hidden: Detect both regular and hidden divergences (hidden divergences can indicate trend continuation).
* Broken Trendline Exclusion: Optionally ignore divergences where the trendline connecting price pivots is broken by an intermediate pivot.
* Pivot Lookback Periods: Adjust the number of bars used to identify valid pivot highs and lows for divergence calculations.
* Weighting: Assign different weights to regular vs. hidden divergences and to the relative change in price vs. the indicator.
3. Indicator-Specific Settings:
* Weight: Each indicator can be assigned a weight, influencing its contribution to the overall divergence strength calculation.
* Extreme Value: Define a threshold above which an indicator's divergence is considered "extreme," giving it a higher strength rating.
4. Divergence Strength Calculation:
* For each indicator, the script calculates a divergence "degree" based on the magnitude of the divergence and the user-defined weightings.
* The total divergence strength is the sum of the individual indicator divergence degrees.
* Strength is categorized as "Extreme," "Very strong," "Strong," "Moderate," "Weak," or "Very weak."
5. Visualization:
* Divergence Lines: The script draws lines on the chart connecting the price and indicator pivots that form a divergence (optional, with customizable transparency).
* Labels: Labels display the total divergence strength and a breakdown of each indicator's contribution. The size and visibility of labels are based on the strength.
6. Alerts:
* The script can generate alerts when the total divergence strength exceeds a user-defined threshold.
New Indicators (CMF and VWMACD):
* Chaikin Money Flow (CMF):
* Purpose: Measures the buying and selling pressure by analyzing the relationship between price, volume, and the accumulation/distribution line.
* Divergence: A bullish CMF divergence occurs when the price makes a lower low, but the CMF makes a higher low (suggesting increasing buying pressure). A bearish divergence is the opposite.
* Volume-Weighted MACD (VWMACD):
* Purpose: Similar to the standard MACD but uses volume-weighted moving averages instead of simple moving averages, giving more weight to periods with higher volume.
* Divergence: Divergences are interpreted similarly to the standard MACD, but the VWMACD can be more sensitive to volume changes.
How It Works (Simplified):
1. Pivot Detection: The script identifies pivot highs and lows in both price and the selected indicators using the specified lookback periods.
2. Divergence Check: For each indicator:
* It checks if a series of pivots in price and the indicator are diverging (e.g., price makes a lower low, but the indicator makes a higher low for a bullish divergence).
* It calculates the divergence degree based on the difference in price and indicator values, weightings, and whether it's a regular or hidden divergence.
3. Strength Aggregation: The script sums up the divergence degrees of all enabled indicators to get the total divergence strength.
4. Visualization and Alerts: It draws lines and labels on the chart to visualize the divergences and generates alerts if the total strength exceeds the set threshold.
Benefits:
* Comprehensive Divergence Analysis: By considering multiple indicators, the script provides a more robust assessment of potential trend reversals.
* Customization: The many adjustable parameters allow traders to fine-tune the script to their specific trading style and preferences.
* Objective Strength Evaluation: The divergence strength calculation and categorization offer a more objective way to evaluate the significance of divergences.
* Early Warning System: Divergences can often precede significant price movements, making this script a valuable tool for anticipating potential trend changes.
* Volume Confirmation: The inclusion of CMF and VWMACD add volume-based confirmation to the divergence signals, potentially increasing their reliability.
Limitations:
* Lagging Indicators: Most of the indicators used are lagging, meaning they are based on past price data. Divergences may sometimes occur after a significant price move has already begun.
* False Signals: No indicator is perfect, and divergences can sometimes produce false signals, especially in choppy or ranging markets.
* Subjectivity: While the script aims for objectivity, some settings (like weightings and extreme values) still involve a degree of subjective judgment.

Weis Wave Max█ Overview
Weis Wave Max is the result of my weis wave study.
David Weis said,
"Trading with the Weis Wave involves changes in behavior associated with springs, upthrusts, tests of breakouts/breakdowns, and effort vs reward. The most common setup is the low-volume pullback after a bullish/bearish change in behavior."
THE STOCK MARKET UPDATE (February 24, 2013)
I inspired from his sentences and made this script.
Its Main feature is to identify the largest wave in Weis wave and advantageous trading opportunities.
█ Features
This indicator includes several features related to the Weis Wave Method.
They help you analyze which is more bullish or bearish.
Highlight Max Wave Value (single direction)
Highlight Abnormal Max Wave Value (both directions)
Support and Resistance zone
Signals and Setups
█ Usage
Weis wave indicator displays cumulative volume for each wave.
Wave volume is effective when analyzing volume from VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) perspective.
The basic idea of Weis wave is large wave volume hint trend direction. This helps identify proper entry point.
This indicator highlights max wave volume and displays the signal and then proper Risk Reward Ratio entry frame.
I defined Change in Behavior as max wave volume (single direction).
Pullback is next wave that does not exceed the starting point of CiB wave (LH sell entry, HL buy entry).
Change in Behavior Signal ○ appears when pullback is determined.
Change in Behavior Setup (Entry frame) appears when condition of Min/Max Pullback is met and follow through wave breaks end point of CiB wave.
This indicator has many other features and they can also help a user identify potential levels of trade entry and which is more bullish or bearish.
In the screenshot below we can see wave volume zones as support and resistance levels. SOT and large wave volume /delta price (yellow colored wave text frame) hint stopping action.

Prometheus Markov ChainThe Prometheus Markov Chain Indicator is a custom-built tool designed to predict potential future price movements using a Markov Chain approach. A Markov Chain is a statistical model that assumes the probability of moving to a future state depends solely on the current state. In this indicator, states represent price movement classifications—bullish, bearish, or neutral—and are determined based on historical price changes (percentage returns). The indicator builds a transition matrix to calculate probabilities of transitioning from one state to another, enabling traders to identify patterns and forecast likely price actions.
Core Functionality and Transition Matrix
The transition matrix is the backbone of the Markov Chain. It captures the frequency of transitions between states in the historical price data and normalizes these counts into probabilities. For example, if the price was in a bearish state and transitioned to a bullish state 3 out of 10 times, the probability of transitioning from bearish to bullish would be 0.3. The matrix is created dynamically using the stateFunc function to classify states, which can use either dynamic thresholds (highest and lowest returns over a lookback period) or a user-defined percent return threshold. Below is the snippet that updates the transition matrix:
transitionMatrix = matrix.new(dimension, dimension, 0.0)
for i = 0 to array.size(vec) - 2
fromState = array.get(vec, i)
toState = array.get(vec, i + 1)
transitionMatrix.set(fromState, toState, transitionMatrix.get(fromState, toState) + 1)
for i = 0 to dimension - 1
rowSum = 0.0
for j = 0 to dimension - 1
rowSum += transitionMatrix.get(i, j)
for j = 0 to dimension - 1
prob = transitionMatrix.get(i, j) / rowSum
transitionMatrix.set(i, j, prob)
This snippet iterates through historical price movements, counts state transitions, and then normalizes each row of the matrix so that the sum of probabilities for all possible transitions from a given state equals 1.
How the Indicator Predicts Future States
After constructing the transition matrix, the indicator calculates the current state of the price based on the latest percentage return and then uses the matrix to compute probabilities for transitioning to other states. The state with the highest probability is predicted as the next state, which is displayed on the chart using color-coded labels: green for bullish and red for bearish. The following snippet demonstrates how the current state and predictions are calculated:
current_chng = (close - close ) / close
var int current_state = na
if not use_custom_thresh
highest_chng = ta.highest(current_chng, int(size) * 2)
lowest_chng = ta.lowest(current_chng, int(size) * 2)
current_state := stateFunc(current_chng, highest_chng, lowest_chng)
else
current_state := stateFunc(current_chng, custom_thresh)
predicted_probs = array.new(dimension, 0.0)
for j = 0 to dimension - 1
array.set(predicted_probs, j, transitionMatrix.get(current_state, j))
The indicator evaluates which state has the highest transition probability (highest_prob) and places corresponding labels on the chart. For example, if the next state is predicted to be bullish, a green "Bullish" label is placed below the current bar. This predictive functionality helps traders anticipate potential reversals or continuations in price trends based on historical behavior patterns.
Usage:
Here we see the indicator at work on $PLTR. The states predicted are bullish then bearish. In this example we then see price move in a way that verifies those predictions.
On this 4 Hour NASDAQ:AMZN chart we see predictions play out in a short trade style. States quickly move from one to another but not without giving traders a way to take advantage.
This is the perspective we aim to provide. We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly. No indicator is 100% accurate. This one can give you a different perspective market state. We encourage any comments about desired updates or criticism!
Super CCI By Baljit AujlaThe indicator you've shared is a custom CCI (Commodity Channel Index) with multiple types of Moving Averages (MA) and Divergence Detection. It is designed to help traders identify trends and reversals by combining the CCI with various MAs and detecting different types of divergences between the price and the CCI.
Key Components of the Indicator:
CCI (Commodity Channel Index):
The CCI is an oscillator that measures the deviation of the price from its average price over a specific period. It helps identify overbought and oversold conditions and the strength of a trend.
The CCI is calculated by subtracting a moving average (SMA) from the price and dividing by the average deviation from the SMA. The CCI values fluctuate above and below a zero centerline.
Multiple Moving Averages (MA):
The indicator allows you to choose from a variety of moving averages to smooth the CCI line and identify trend direction or support/resistance levels. The available types of MAs include:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
WMA (Weighted Moving Average)
HMA (Hull Moving Average)
RMA (Running Moving Average)
SMMA (Smoothed Moving Average)
TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average)
DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average)
VWMA (Volume-Weighted Moving Average)
ZLEMA (Zero-Lag Exponential Moving Average)
You can select the type of MA to use with a specified length to help identify the trend direction or smooth out the CCI.
Divergence Detection:
The indicator includes a divergence detection mechanism to identify potential trend reversals. Divergences occur when the price and an oscillator like the CCI move in opposite directions, signaling a potential change in price momentum.
Four types of divergences are detected:
Bullish Divergence: Occurs when the price makes a lower low, but the CCI makes a higher low. This indicates a potential reversal to the upside.
Bearish Divergence: Occurs when the price makes a higher high, but the CCI makes a lower high. This indicates a potential reversal to the downside.
Hidden Bullish Divergence: Occurs when the price makes a higher low, but the CCI makes a lower low. This suggests a continuation of the uptrend.
Hidden Bearish Divergence: Occurs when the price makes a lower high, but the CCI makes a higher high. This suggests a continuation of the downtrend.
Each type of divergence is marked on the chart with arrows and labels to alert traders to potential trading opportunities. The labels include the divergence type (e.g., "Bull Div" for Bullish Divergence) and have customizable text colors.
Visual Representation:
The CCI and its associated moving average are plotted on the indicator panel below the price chart. The CCI is plotted as a line, and its color changes depending on whether it is above or below the moving average:
Green when the CCI is above the MA (indicating bullish momentum).
Red when the CCI is below the MA (indicating bearish momentum).
Horizontal lines are drawn at specific levels to help identify key CCI thresholds:
200 and -200 levels indicate extreme overbought or oversold conditions.
75 and -75 levels represent less extreme levels of overbought or oversold conditions.
The 0 level acts as a neutral or baseline level.
A background color fill between the 75 and -75 levels helps highlight the neutral zone.
Customization Options:
CCI Length: You can customize the length of the CCI, which determines the period over which the CCI is calculated.
MA Length: The length of the moving average applied to the CCI can also be adjusted.
MA Type: Choose from a variety of moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA, etc.) to smooth the CCI.
Divergence Detection: The indicator automatically detects the four types of divergences (bullish, bearish, hidden bullish, hidden bearish) and visually marks them on the chart.
How to Use the Indicator:
Trend Identification: When the CCI is above the selected moving average, it suggests bullish momentum. When the CCI is below the moving average, it suggests bearish momentum.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: The CCI values above 100 or below -100 indicate overbought and oversold conditions, respectively.
Divergence Analysis: The detection of bullish or bearish divergences can signal potential trend reversals. Hidden divergences may suggest trend continuation.
Trading Signals: You can use the divergence markers (arrows and labels) as potential buy or sell signals, depending on whether the divergence is bullish or bearish.
Practical Application:
This indicator is useful for traders who want to:
Combine the CCI with different moving averages for trend-following strategies.
Identify overbought and oversold conditions using the CCI.
Use divergence detection to anticipate potential trend reversals or continuations.
Have a highly customizable tool for various trading strategies, including trend trading, reversal trading, and divergence-based trading.
Overall, this is a comprehensive tool that combines multiple technical analysis techniques (CCI, moving averages, and divergence) in a single indicator, providing traders with a robust way to analyze price action and spot potential trading opportunities.
Indicator DashboardThis script creates an 'Indicator Dashboard' designed to assist you in analyzing financial markets and making informed decisions. The indicator provides a summary of current market conditions by presenting various technical analysis indicators in a table format. The dashboard evaluates popular indicators such as Moving Averages, RSI, MACD, and Stochastic RSI. Below, we'll explain each part of this script in detail and its purpose:
### Overview of Indicators
1. **Moving Averages (MA)**:
- This indicator calculates Simple Moving Averages (“SMA”) for 5, 14, 20, 50, 100, and 200 periods. These averages provide a visual summary of price movements. Depending on whether the price is above or below the moving average, it determines the market direction as either “Bullish” or “Bearish.”
2. **RSI (Relative Strength Index)**:
- The RSI helps identify overbought or oversold market conditions. Here, the RSI is calculated for a 14-period window, and this value is displayed in the table. Additionally, the 14-period moving average of the RSI is also included.
3. **MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)**:
- The MACD indicator is used to determine trend strength and potential reversals. This script calculates the MACD line, signal line, and histogram. The MACD condition (“Bullish,” “Bearish,” or “Neutral”) is displayed alongside the MACD and signal line values.
4. **Stochastic RSI**:
- Stochastic RSI is used to identify momentum changes in the market. The %K and %D lines are calculated to determine the market condition (“Bullish” or “Bearish”), which is displayed along with the calculated values for %K and %D.
### Table Layout and Presentation
The dashboard is presented in a vertical table format in the top-right corner of the chart. The table contains two columns: “Indicator” and “Status,” summarizing the condition of each technical indicator.
- **Indicator Column**: Lists each of the indicators being tracked, such as SMA values, RSI, MACD, etc.
- **Status Column**: Displays the current status of each indicator, such as “Bullish,” “Bearish,” or specific values like the RSI or MACD.
The table also includes rounded indicator values for easier interpretation. This helps traders quickly assess market conditions and make informed decisions based on multiple indicators presented in a single location.
### Detailed Indicator Status Calculations
1. **SMA Status**: For each moving average (5, 14, 20, 50, 100, 200), the script checks if the current price is above or below the SMA. The status is determined as “Bullish” if the price is above the SMA and “Bearish” if below, with the value of the SMA also displayed.
2. **RSI and RSI Average**: The RSI value for a 14-period is displayed along with its 14-period SMA, which provides an average reading of the RSI to smooth out volatility.
3. **MACD Indicator**: The MACD line, signal line, and histogram are calculated using standard parameters (12, 26, 9). The status is shown as “Bullish” when the MACD line is above the signal line, and “Bearish” when it is below. The exact values for the MACD line, signal line, and histogram are also included.
4. **Stochastic RSI**: The %K and %D lines of the Stochastic RSI are used to determine the trend condition. If %K is greater than %D, the condition is “Bullish,” otherwise it is “Bearish.” The actual values of %K and %D are also displayed.
### Conclusion
The 'Indicator Dashboard' provides a comprehensive overview of multiple technical indicators in a single, easy-to-read table. This allows traders to quickly gauge market conditions and make more informed decisions. By consolidating key indicators like Moving Averages, RSI, MACD, and Stochastic RSI into one dashboard, it saves time and enhances the efficiency of technical analysis.
This script is particularly useful for traders who prefer a clean and organized overview of their favorite indicators without needing to plot each one individually on the chart. Instead, all the crucial information is available at a glance in a consolidated format.
NUTJP CDC ActionZone 20241. Core Components of the Strategy
• Fast EMA and Slow EMA:
• The Fast EMA (shorter period) is more reactive to recent price changes.
• The Slow EMA (longer period) reacts slower and provides a smoother view of the overall trend.
• Relationship Between Fast EMA and Slow EMA:
• When the Fast EMA is above the Slow EMA, the market is considered Bullish.
• When the Fast EMA is below the Slow EMA, the market is considered Bearish.
2. Zones Based on Price and EMAs
The strategy defines six zones based on the position of the price, Fast EMA, and Slow EMA:
1. Green Zone (Buy):
• Bullish trend (Fast EMA > Slow EMA)
• Price is above the Fast EMA.
• Indicates a strong uptrend and suggests buying.
2. Blue and Light Blue Zones (Pre-Buy):
• Price is above the Fast EMA but below or near the Slow EMA.
• Represents potential bullish signals but not strong enough to trigger a buy.
3. Red Zone (Sell):
• Bearish trend (Fast EMA < Slow EMA)
• Price is below the Fast EMA.
• Indicates a strong downtrend and suggests selling or avoiding long trades.
4. Orange and Yellow Zones (Pre-Sell):
• Price is below the Fast EMA but above or near the Slow EMA.
• Represents potential bearish signals but not strong enough to trigger a sell.
These zones help traders visualize the market conditions and determine whether to buy, hold, or sell.
3. Buy and Sell Conditions
• Buy Condition:
A buy signal is triggered when:
• The price enters the Green Zone (Bullish trend and price > Fast EMA).
• It’s the first green candle after a non-green candle.
• Sell Condition:
A sell signal is triggered when:
• The price enters the Red Zone (Bearish trend and price < Fast EMA).
• It’s the first red candle after a non-red candle.
4. Trade Execution Logic
• Buy:
The strategy enters a long position (buy) when the above buy condition is met.
• Sell:
The strategy exits the long position when the sell condition is met.
Note: It doesn’t support short trades, meaning it doesn’t enter sell positions.
5. Momentum-Based Signals (Optional)
The indicator also includes momentum signals using Stochastic RSI to provide additional buy/sell signals:
• These are based on oversold and overbought levels of the Stochastic RSI.
• It filters signals depending on whether the trend is Bullish or Bearish.
6. Visual Features
The indicator is designed to make the trading zones and signals visually intuitive:
• Bar Colors:
Candlesticks are colored based on the current zone (e.g., Green for Buy, Red for Sell).
• EMA Lines:
The Fast EMA and Slow EMA are plotted, making it easy to see crossover points.
• Buy/Sell Signals:
Marked with shapes (e.g., circles) below/above bars for clarity.
7. Strategy Assumptions
• Trend-Following Nature:
This strategy assumes that trends persist. It works best in trending markets but might give false signals in ranging markets.
• Lagging Nature of EMAs:
As EMAs are lagging indicators, buy and sell signals may occur after significant moves have already begun or ended.
• Momentum Confirmation (Optional):
Adding momentum signals can help filter false signals, though it’s not part of the core logic.
8. Usage Recommendations
• Timeframes:
Works on various timeframes but may perform better on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, Daily) to reduce noise.
• Markets:
Can be applied to stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
• Backtesting and Optimization:
Before live trading, backtest the strategy with different EMA periods and other parameters to find optimal settings for your market and timeframe.
DB369 - Directional Bias 369
DB369 - Directional Bias 369 Indicator
The **DB369** indicator helps traders identify key market levels and trends by combining multiple timeframes' price action analysis. It highlights important **pivot points** on the chart and provides visual cues to help you make more informed buy and sell decisions based on the overall market direction.
Key Features
1. Pivot Points Across Multiple Timeframes**:
- The indicator calculates and displays pivot points for the **Monthly**, **Weekly**, **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **1-Hour** timeframes (or 30-minute equivalent if desired). These pivots represent significant price levels where the market may retest.
2. **Trend Detection**:
- The indicator evaluates the relationship between the current price and the pivot point for each timeframe. Based on this comparison, it classifies the market as **Bullish**, **Bearish**, or **Neutral** on each timeframe.
3. **Pivot Lines**:
- Horizontal lines are drawn to mark the key pivot points for each selected timeframe. These lines extend into the future and adjust dynamically as the market moves in real time.
- **Customizable**: You can choose which timeframes to display pivot points by enabling/disabling them in the settings.
4. **Trend Table**:
- A **table** is displayed at the top-right of the chart to show the trend for the **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **30-Minute** timeframes. It provides an easy-to-read view of the trend direction across these timeframes.
5. **Buy/Sell Arrows**:
- **Buy Arrow**: A green arrow will appear when the **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **30-Minute** trends are all **Bullish** (aligned in the same direction).
- **Sell Arrow**: A red arrow will appear when all three timeframes show a **Bearish** trend.
- These arrows appear only once per alignment change and can be enabled or disabled for alerts. This helps avoid clutter on the chart and ensures that you only see a signal when the alignment occurs or changes.
### **How to Use the DB369 Indicator**:
1. **Pivot Points**:
- The pivot points represent significant price levels where the market might retest in the future. For instance:
- **Bullish Market**: If the price is above the pivot point, the market is considered bullish.
- **Bearish Market**: If the price is below the pivot point, the market is considered bearish.
- **Neutral Market**: When the price is near the pivot point, the market is neither strongly bullish nor bearish.
2. **Trend Alignment**:
- When the **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **30-Minute** timeframes all show the same trend direction (either **Bullish** or **Bearish**), this alignment signifies a stronger trend.
- You will receive a **Buy Arrow** when all three timeframes are aligned bullish, and a **Sell Arrow** when they are aligned bearish.
- These arrows are displayed at the point when the alignment is first detected and can also trigger **alerts**.
3. **Alerts**:
- You can choose to enable alerts for when a **Buy** or **Sell** arrow appears on the chart. This allows you to be notified in real-time when the alignment conditions are met.
4. **Using the Pivot Points for Entry**:
- **Buy Trade**: Look for a buy trade when the price is near the **pivot line** of the higher timeframes, particularly when the trend across all three timeframes is **Bullish**.
- **Sell Trade**: Similarly, look for a sell trade when the price is near a **pivot line** and the trend is **Bearish**.
5. **Customization**:
- You can customize which timeframes' pivots are shown on the chart by toggling the visibility of the **Monthly**, **Weekly**, **Daily**, **4-Hour**, and **1-Hour** pivots in the settings.
- The indicator automatically adjusts the pivot levels in real-time as the market progresses.
**Important Notes**:
- This indicator does not guarantee successful trades; it is intended to assist in identifying potential trade opportunities based on the alignment of higher timeframe trends.
- Always combine the information from the DB369 indicator with other technical analysis tools and risk management strategies to ensure more accurate trade decisions.
Correlation Confluence Trend IndicatorCorrelation Confluence Trend Indicator
Overview
The Correlation Confluence Trend Indicator combines exponential moving averages (EMAs) and statistical correlation measures to identify high-confidence trend alignments between an asset and a benchmark. By filtering signals through correlation strength, this indicator highlights opportunities when the asset and benchmark move together. In other words, it defines a trend and then uses correlation strength and the trend of a second asset to identify high-confidence trends.
Key Features
Dual EMA Trend Analysis :
Calculates fast and slow EMAs for both the asset and the selected benchmark (e.g., SPY) to identify bullish and bearish trends.
Correlation Strength Filtering :
Evaluates correlation between the asset and benchmark, identifying stronger-than-average relationships based on the mean and standard deviation.
Background Color Coding :
- Green : Strong correlation, both asset and benchmark bullish.
- Aqua : Weak correlation, both asset and benchmark bullish.
- Red : Strong correlation, both asset and benchmark bearish.
- Fuchsia : Weak correlation, both asset and benchmark bearish.
- Orange : Strong correlation, benchmark bullish, asset bearish.
- Yellow : Weak correlation, benchmark bullish, asset bearish.
- Purple : Strong correlation, benchmark bearish, asset bullish.
- Lime : Weak correlation, benchmark bearish, asset bullish.
Visual Trend Indicators :
Plots fast and slow EMAs for the asset, dynamically colored based on aggregate trend signals. The color of this corresponds to the main trend signal.
Inputs
Benchmark Symbol : Symbol of the benchmark asset to compare against.
Fast EMA Length : Period for the fast EMA calculation.
Slow EMA Length : Period for the slow EMA calculation.
Correlation Length : Number of bars for correlation calculation.
Correlation Mean Length : Number of bars for mean and standard deviation calculation.
Std Dev Multiplier : Multiplier for standard deviation to define correlation strength. When the correlation is Std Dev Multiplier standard deviations above the mean, it counts as a strong correlation.
Set Background Color : Toggle background coloring on or off.
Notes
This indicator is primarily designed for trend-following strategies. By combining trend analysis and correlation filtering, it ensures that signals occur during aligned market conditions, reducing false signals.
Before incorporating this indicator into your trading strategy:
Always backtest on historical data to evaluate its performance before committing capital.
Use proper risk management to control position sizes and mitigate potential losses.
Remember that no indicator guarantees success. I'm quite proud of this one, but it's not the holy grail.
Exposure Oscillator (Cumulative 0 to ±100%)
Exposure Oscillator (Cumulative 0 to ±100%)
This Pine Script indicator plots an "Exposure Oscillator" on the chart, which tracks the cumulative market exposure from a range of technical buy and sell signals. The exposure is measured on a scale from -100% (maximum short exposure) to +100% (maximum long exposure), helping traders assess the strength of their position in the market. It provides an intuitive visual cue to aid decision-making for trend-following strategies.

Oscillator Visualization: The exposure score is visualized as a line on the chart, changing color based on whether the exposure is positive (long position) or negative (short position). It is limited to the range of -100% to +100%.
Position Type: The indicator also indicates the position type based on the exposure score, labeling it as "Long," "Short," or "Neutral."
Horizontal Lines: Reference lines at 0%, 100%, and -100% visually mark neutral, increasing long, and increasing short exposure levels.
Exposure Table: A table displays the current exposure level (in percentage) and position type ("Long," "Short," or "Neutral"), updated dynamically based on the oscillator’s value.
Inputs:
Theme Mode: Choose "Auto" to use the default chart theme, or manually select "Dark" or "Light."
Usage:
This oscillator is designed to help traders track market sentiment, gauge exposure levels, and manage risk. It can be used for long-term trend-following strategies or short-term trades based on moving average crossovers and volume analysis.
The oscillator operates in conjunction with the chart’s price action and provides a visual representation of the market’s current trend strength and exposure.
Important Considerations:
Risk Management: While the exposure score provides valuable insight, it should be combined with other risk management tools and analysis for optimal trading decisions.
Signal Sensitivity: The accuracy and effectiveness of the signals depend on market conditions and may require adjustments based on the user’s trading strategy or timeframe.
Disclaimer:
This script is for educational purposes only. Trading involves significant risk, and users should carefully evaluate all market conditions and apply appropriate risk management strategies before using this tool in live trading environments.
Arshtiq - Multi-Timeframe Trend StrategyMulti-Timeframe Setup:
The script uses two distinct timeframes: a higher (daily) timeframe for identifying the trend and a lower (hourly) timeframe for making trades. This combination allows the script to follow the larger trend while timing entries and exits with more precision on a shorter timeframe.
Moving Averages Calculation:
higher_ma: The 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) calculated based on the daily timeframe. This average gives a sense of the larger trend direction.
lower_ma: The 20-period SMA calculated on the hourly (current) timeframe, providing a dynamic level for detecting entry and exit points within the broader trend.
Trend Identification:
Bullish Trend: The script determines that a bullish trend is present if the current price is above the daily moving average (higher_ma).
Bearish Trend: Similarly, a bearish trend is identified when the current price is below this daily moving average.
Trade Signals:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when the price on the hourly chart crosses above the hourly 20-period MA, but only if the higher (daily) timeframe trend is bullish. This ensures that buy trades align with the larger upward trend.
Sell Signal: A sell signal is generated when the price on the hourly chart crosses below the hourly 20-period MA, but only if the daily trend is bearish. This ensures that sell trades are consistent with the broader downtrend.
Plotting and Visual Cues:
Higher Timeframe MA: The daily 20-period moving average is plotted in red to help visualize the long-term trend.
Buy and Sell Signals: Buy signals appear as green labels below the price bars with the text "BUY," while sell signals appear as red labels above the bars with the text "SELL."
Background Coloring: The background changes color based on the identified trend for easier trend recognition:
Green (with transparency) when the daily trend is bullish.
Red (with transparency) when the daily trend is bearish.

Average Up and Down Candles Streak with Predicted Next CandleThis indicator is designed to analyze price trends by examining the patterns of up and down streaks (consecutive bullish or bearish candles) over a defined period. It uses this data to provide insights on whether the next candle is likely to be bullish or bearish, and it visually displays relevant information on the chart.
Here’s a breakdown of what the indicator does:
1. Inputs and Parameters
Period (Candles): Defines the number of candles used to calculate the average length of bullish and bearish streaks. For example, if the period is set to 20, the indicator will analyze the past 20 candles to determine average up and down streak lengths.
Bullish/Bearish Bias Signal Toggle: These options allow users to show or hide visual signals (green or red circles) when there’s a bullish or bearish bias in the trend based on the indicator’s calculations.
2. Streak Calculation
The indicator looks at each candle within the period to identify if it closed up (bullish) or down (bearish).
Up Streak: The indicator counts consecutive bullish candles. When there’s a bearish candle, it resets the up streak count.
Down Streak: Similarly, it counts consecutive bearish candles and resets when a bullish candle appears.
Averages: Over the defined period, the indicator calculates the average length of up streaks and average length of down streaks. This provides a baseline to assess whether the current streak is typical or extended.
3. Current and Average Streak Display
The indicator displays the current up and down streak lengths alongside the average streak lengths for comparison. This data appears in a table on the chart, allowing you to see at a glance:
The current streak length (for both up and down trends)
The average streak length for up and down trends over the chosen period
4. Trend Prediction for the Next Candle
Next Candle Prediction: Based on the current streak and its comparison to the average, the indicator predicts the likely direction of the next candle:
Bullish: If the current up streak is shorter than the average up streak, suggesting that the bullish trend could continue.
Bearish: If the current down streak is shorter than the average down streak, indicating that the bearish trend may continue.
Neutral: If the current streak length is near the average, which could signal an upcoming reversal.
This prediction appears in a table on the chart, labeled as “Next Candle.”
5. Previous Candle Analysis
The Previous Candle entry in the table reflects the last completed candle (directly before the current candle) to show whether it was bullish, bearish, or neutral.
This data gives a reference point for recent price action and helps validate the next candle prediction.
6. Visual Signals and Reversal Zones
Bullish/Bearish Bias Signals: The indicator can plot green circles on bullish bias and red circles on bearish bias to highlight points where the trend is likely to continue.
Reversal Zones: If the current streak length reaches or exceeds the average, it suggests the trend may be overextended, indicating a potential reversal zone. The indicator highlights these zones with shaded backgrounds (green for possible bullish reversal, red for bearish) on the chart.
Summary of What You See on the Chart
Bullish and Bearish Bias Signals: Green or red circles mark areas of expected continuation in the trend.
Reversal Zones: Shaded areas in red or green suggest that the trend might be about to reverse.
Tables:
The Next Candle prediction table displays the trend direction of the previous candle and the likely trend of the next candle.
The Streak Information table shows the current up and down streak lengths, along with their averages for easy comparison.
Practical Use
This indicator is helpful for traders aiming to understand trend momentum and potential reversals based on historical patterns. It’s particularly useful for swing trading, where knowing the typical length of bullish or bearish trends can help in timing entries and exits.
Cumulative Buying and Selling Volume with 3 Lookback PeriodsScript Overview:
This script is designed to help traders identify market momentum by analyzing buying and selling volume. It calculates the cumulative buying and selling pressure over three different lookback periods, providing insights into whether the bulls or bears are dominating at any given time. The script does this by computing the cumulative buying and selling volume for each period and comparing them through exponential moving averages (EMA) to smooth out short-term fluctuations.
Purpose and Use:
The primary goal of this script is to highlight shifts in market sentiment based on volume dynamics. Volume is a critical component in market analysis, often signaling the strength behind price movements. By focusing on cumulative buying and selling pressure, the script gives traders an idea of whether the market is trending towards more buying or selling during specific periods. Traders can use this tool to:
Identify potential entry points when buying pressure is strong.
Recognize potential selling opportunities when selling pressure is increasing.
Detect periods of indecision when neither buying nor selling dominates.
Key Concepts:
1. Buying Volume (BV):
The buying volume is calculated based on the price range of each candle. It represents the volume allocated to the bullish side of the market:
When the close is near the high, the buying volume is higher.
Formula: BV = volume * (close - low) / (high - low).
2. Selling Volume (SV):
Similarly, selling volume is derived based on the position of the close relative to the low:
When the close is near the low, selling volume is higher.
Formula: SV = volume * (high - close) / (high - low)
3. Lookback Periods:
The script allows users to define three different lookback periods (5, 10, and 20 by default). These periods smooth out the cumulative buying and selling volumes using EMA calculations:
Shorter periods capture more immediate changes in volume dynamics.
Longer periods provide a broader perspective on market trends.
4. Cumulative Volume Calculation:
For each lookback period, cumulative buying and selling volumes are tracked separately and then smoothed with EMA:
emaBuyVol and emaSellVol are the smoothed values for buying and selling volumes over the lookback periods.
5. Market Pressure Comparison:
Buying Pressure: If the EMA of buying volume is greater than the EMA of selling volume for a particular lookback period, the script considers that buying pressure dominates for that period.
Selling Pressure: Conversely, if selling volume dominates over buying volume for a period, the script registers selling pressure.
6. Overall Market Pressure:
The script aggregates the buying and selling pressures from the three lookback periods to determine the overall market sentiment:
If the majority of periods show buying pressure, the market is bullish.
If the majority show selling pressure, the market is bearish.
If neither side dominates, it suggests a neutral or indecisive market.
Visual Cues:
The script provides visual feedback to help traders quickly interpret the market pressure:
Background Color:
Green (#2bff00) when buying pressure dominates.
Red (#ff0000) when selling pressure dominates.
Gray (#404040) when there is no clear dominance.
Bar Color: The script also colors the price bars based on the dominant market pressure:
Green for buying pressure.
Red for selling pressure.
Gray for neutral or balanced market pressure.
Reset Mechanism:
At the start of each new candle, the cumulative volumes for all three periods are reset to zero. This ensures that the cumulative volumes are only measured for the current candle, preventing carryover from previous periods that could distort the analysis.
How Traders Can Use This Script:
Trend Confirmation: Traders can use the script as a trend confirmation tool. When the background turns green (buying dominance), it suggests bullish momentum. When red, bearish momentum is likely. This information can be used to confirm existing positions or signal new trades in the direction of the market pressure.
Reversal Detection: A sudden shift in the background color (from green to red or vice versa) can indicate a potential reversal. This can be particularly useful when combined with other technical indicators such as price action or support/resistance levels.
Multiple Timeframes: Since the script supports three different lookback periods, it provides a comprehensive view of market pressure across short-term, medium-term, and long-term perspectives. Traders can tailor the lookback periods based on their preferred timeframe to match their trading style, whether it’s intraday trading or longer-term swing trading.
Risk Management: The script's clear visual cues help traders manage risk by highlighting when selling pressure increases, allowing them to consider reducing long positions or tightening stop-losses.

ADX Trend Strength Analyzer█ OVERVIEW
This script implements the Average Directional Index (ADX), a powerful tool used to measure the strength of market trends. It works alongside the Directional Movement Index (DMI), which breaks down the directional market pressure into bullish (+DI) and bearish (-DI) components. The purpose of the ADX is to indicate when the market is in a strong trend, without specifying the direction. This indicator can be especially useful for identifying market trends early and validating trading strategies based on trend-following systems.
The ADX component in this script is based on two key parameters:
ADX Smoothing Length (adxlen), which determines the degree of smoothing for the trend strength.
DI Length (dilen), which defines the look-back period for calculating the directional index values.
Additionally, a horizontal line is plotted at the 30 level, providing a widely used threshold that signifies when a trend is considered strong (above 30).
█ CONCEPTS
Directional Movement (DM): The core idea behind this indicator is the calculation of price movement in terms of bullish and bearish forces. By evaluating the change in highs and lows, the script distinguishes between bullish movement (+DM) and bearish movement (-DM). These values are normalized by dividing them by the True Range (TR), creating the +DI and -DI values.
True Range (TR): The True Range is calculated using the Average True Range (ATR) formula, and it serves to smooth out volatility, ensuring that short-term fluctuations don't distort the long-term trend signal.
ADX Calculation: The ADX is derived from the absolute difference between the +DI and -DI. By smoothing this difference and normalizing it, the ADX is able to measure the overall strength of the trend without regard to whether the market is moving up or down. A rising ADX indicates increasing trend strength, while a falling ADX signals weakening trends.
█ METHODOLOGY
Directional Movement Calculation: The script first determines the upward and downward price movement by comparing changes in the high and low prices. If the upward movement is greater than the downward movement, it registers a bullish signal and vice versa for bearish movement.
True Range Adjustment: The script then applies a smoothing function to normalize these movements by dividing them by the True Range (ATR). This ensures that the trend signal is based on relative, rather than absolute, price movements.
ADX Signal Generation: The final step is to calculate the ADX by applying the Relative Moving Average (RMA) to the difference between +DI and -DI. This produces the ADX value, which is plotted in red, making it easy to visualize shifts in market momentum.
Threshold Line: A blue horizontal line is plotted at 30, which serves as a key reference point. When the ADX is above this line, it indicates a strong trend, whether bullish or bearish.
█ HOW TO USE
Trend Strength: Traders typically use the 30 level as a critical threshold. When the ADX is above 30, it signifies a strong trend, making it a favorable environment for trend-following strategies. Conversely, ADX values below 30 suggest a weak or non-trending market.
+DI and -DI Relationship: The indicator also provides insight into whether the trend is bullish or bearish. When +DI is greater than -DI, the market is considered bullish. When -DI is greater than +DI, the market is considered bearish. While this script focuses on the ADX value itself, the underlying +DI and -DI help interpret the trend direction.
Market Conditions: This indicator is effective in trending markets, but not ideal for choppy or sideways conditions. Traders can use it to determine the best entry and exit points when trends are strong, or to avoid trading in periods of low volatility.
Combining with Other Indicators: The ADX is commonly used in conjunction with oscillators like RSI or moving averages, to confirm the trend strength and avoid false signals.
█ METHOD VARIANTS
This script applies the standard approach for calculating the ADX, but could be adapted with the following variants:
Different Timeframes: The script could be modified to calculate ADX values across higher or lower timeframes, depending on the trader's strategy.
Custom Thresholds: Instead of using the default 30 threshold, traders could adjust the horizontal line to suit their own risk tolerance or market conditions.
E9 Shark-32 PatternUnderstanding the Shark-32 Pattern and its Trading Applications
The Shark-32 Pattern is a bearish technical trading formation used to predict market reversals or trend continuations. It highlights a downward move followed by a corrective rally, signaling a potential resumption of the downtrend. Here’s a breakdown of how it works:
What is the Shark-32 Pattern?
The Shark-32 pattern is a five-wave structure typically observed in bearish markets:
Wave 0 to X: A significant price decline starts the pattern.
Wave X to A: A correction pushes the price slightly upward.
Wave A to B: The price drops again but doesn’t reach the initial low.
Wave B to C: A final sharp decline concludes the pattern.
Once Wave C is formed, it suggests that the market will continue to move downward, presenting a potential selling or shorting opportunity.
Using the Pattern in Trading
This pattern is valuable for traders seeking high-probability bearish setups. The goal is to capitalize on the continuation of a downtrend following the corrective rally (X to A). Identifying the Shark-32 pattern helps anticipate the next wave of selling pressure.
Trading Setup
Identify a Shark-32 pattern.
If the price closes above the pattern's high, buy at the open the next day.
If the price closes below the pattern's low, short at the open the next day.
Sell/cover when the price moves 7% in the direction of the breakout.
Close the trade for a loss if the price moves 7% in the opposite direction.
For example, in a bull market after an upward breakout from a Shark-32, the net gain was $69.55. The method won 56% of the time with 5,218 winning trades and an average gain of $714.07. Conversely, 44% of trades were losers, with an average loss of $747.33. The average holding period was 26 calendar days.
The gains and losses were closely aligned with the 7% threshold set for this test.
Key Target Levels
To enhance the strategy, use dotted projection lines as target levels:
Upper Target: Drawn above the high of the corrective rally (Wave A). If the price breaks above this line, it may signal further upward movement, indicating a potentially weaker downtrend.
Lower Target: Positioned below the low of Wave C, providing a target for bearish trades.
These lines help determine future price targets and assist in setting take-profit or stop-loss levels.
Trading the Breakout
Look for breakouts once the Shark-32 pattern is identified:
Upward Breakout: If the price closes above the green line (high from two bars ago), it indicates a potential reversal to the upside.
Downward Breakout: If the price breaks below the red line (low from two bars ago), it confirms the bearish continuation.
Breakouts allow traders to adjust their positions based on market shifts.
Trading Tips
Continuation: The Shark-32 pattern acts as a continuation 60% of the time, confirming the ongoing trend.
Breakout Confirmation: Wait for the price to close above or below the pattern’s key levels before entering a trade.
Trade with the Trend: Since the Shark-32 is a continuation pattern, expect the breakout to align with the inbound price trend.
Symmetry: Patterns with symmetry often perform better. For more insights, refer to detailed trading literature.
Half-Staff: The Shark-32 can form midway in a trend, similar to flags and pennants.
Shark-32: Trading Performance
Based on an analysis of 23,369 trades, the following performance metrics were observed:
Bull Market with Upward Breakout: The average net profit was $69.55. This method won 56% of the time, with winning trades averaging $714.07. Losing trades, which constituted 44% of the total, had an average loss of $747.33. The average holding period was 26 calendar days.
Bull Market with Downward Breakout: The average net loss was $(76.36). This method won 43% of the time, with winning trades averaging $753.56. Losing trades, which constituted 57% of the total, had an average loss of $706.32. The average holding period was 23 calendar days.
Bear Market with Upward Breakout: The average net loss was $(89.13). This method won 46% of the time, with winning trades averaging $710.77. Losing trades, which constituted 54% of the total, had an average loss of $756.97. The average holding period was 16 calendar days.
Bear Market with Downward Breakout: The average net profit was $65.17. This method won 52% of the time, with winning trades averaging $781.62. Losing trades, which constituted 48% of the total, had an average loss of $722.41. The average holding period was 13 calendar days.
N Bar Reversal Detector [LuxAlgo]The N Bar Reversal Detector is designed to detect and highlight N-bar reversal patterns in user charts, where N represents the length of the candle sequence used to detect the patterns. The script incorporates various trend indicators to filter out detected signals and offers a range of customizable settings to fit different trading strategies.
🔶 USAGE
The N-bar reversal pattern extends the popular 3-bar reversal pattern. While the 3-bar reversal pattern involves identifying a sequence of three bars signaling a potential trend reversal, the N-bar reversal pattern builds on this concept by incorporating additional bars based on user settings. This provides a more comprehensive indication of potential trend reversals. The script automates the identification of these patterns and generates clear, visually distinct signals to highlight potential trend changes.
When a reversal chart pattern is confirmed and aligns with the price action, the pattern's boundaries are extended to create levels. The upper boundary serves as resistance, while the lower boundary acts as support.
The script allows users to filter patterns based on the trend direction identified by various trend indicators. Users can choose to view patterns that align with the detected trend or those that are contrary to it.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 The N-bar Reversal Pattern
The N-bar reversal pattern is a technical analysis tool designed to signal potential trend reversals in the market. It consists of N consecutive bars, with the first N-1 bars used to identify the prevailing trend and the Nth bar confirming the reversal. Here’s a detailed look at the pattern:
Bullish Reversal : In a bullish reversal setup, the first bar is the highest among the first N-1 bars, indicating a prevailing downtrend. Most of the remaining bars in this sequence should be bearish (closing lower than where they opened), reinforcing the existing downward momentum. The Nth (most recent) bar confirms a bullish reversal if its high price is higher than the high of the first bar in the sequence (standard pattern). For a stronger signal, the closing price of the Nth bar should also be higher than the high of the first bar.
Bearish Reversal : In a bearish reversal setup, the first bar is the lowest among the first N-1 bars, indicating a prevailing uptrend. Most of the remaining bars in this sequence should be bullish (closing higher than where they opened), reinforcing the existing upward momentum. The Nth bar confirms a bearish reversal if its low price is lower than the low of the first bar in the sequence (standard pattern). For a stronger signal, the closing price of the Nth bar should also be lower than the low of the first bar.
🔹 Min Percentage of Required Candles
This parameter specifies the minimum percentage of candles that must be bullish (for a bearish reversal) or bearish (for a bullish reversal) among the first N-1 candles in a pattern. For higher values of N, it becomes more challenging for all of the first N-1 candles to be consistently bullish or bearish. By setting a percentage value, P, users can adjust the requirement so that only a minimum of P percent of the first N-1 candles need to meet the bullish or bearish condition. This allows for greater flexibility in pattern recognition, accommodating variations in market conditions.
🔶 SETTINGS
Pattern Type: Users can choose the type of the N-bar reversal patterns to detect: Normal, Enhanced, or All. "Normal" detects patterns that do not necessarily surpass the high/low of the first bar. "Enhanced" detects patterns where the last bar surpasses the high/low of the first bar. "All" detects both Normal and Enhanced patterns.
Reversal Pattern Sequence Length: Specifies the number of candles (N) in the sequence used to identify a reversal pattern.
Min Percentage of Required Candles: Sets the minimum percentage of the first N-1 candles that must be bullish (for a bearish reversal) or bearish (for a bullish reversal) to qualify as a valid reversal pattern.
Derived Support and Resistance: Toggles the visibility of the support and resistance levels/zones.
🔹 Trend Filtering
Filtering: Allows users to filter patterns based on the trend indicators: Moving Average Cloud, Supertrend, and Donchian Channels. The "Aligned" option only detects patterns that align with the trend and conversely, the "Opposite" option detects patterns that go against the trend.
🔹 Trend Indicator Settings
Moving Average Cloud: Allows traders to choose the type of moving averages (SMA, EMA, HMA, etc.) and set the lengths for fast and slow moving averages.
Supertrend: Options to set the ATR length and factor for Supertrend.
Donchian Channels: Option to set the length for the channel calculation.

Prometheus Volatility StopThe Prometheus Volatility Stop is an indicator designed to give you a moving risk metric along with a custom Moving Average cross. After a calculation of the annualized volatility for the specified lookback period we determine bullish or bearish from the moving averages and plot the Volatility Stop accordingly.
User Input:
A user can select from Hull Moving Average, Exponential Moving average, Simple Moving Average, the Moving Average used in RSI, and Weighted Moving Average. The default is Hull Moving Average and Exponential Moving average.
A user can also specify the lookback period. The default is 30.
A user may also turn off the plots for the Moving Averages.
The reason for this approach is to be more original from the traditional Volatility Stop.
Calculation:
The Historical Volatility is calculated by taking the standard deviation of the log returns for the specified period and then annualizing it.
hv = ta.stdev(math.log(close / close ), lkb) * math.sqrt(252/5)
Then the Volatility Stop is calculated as follows:
recent_max = ta.highest(close, lkb)
recent_min = ta.lowest(close, lkb)
hv_stop = ma_2 > ma_1 ? recent_max + hv : recent_min - hv
When the second selected moving average is greater than the first, which signals bearishness, the historical volatility gets added to the high of that period. When the moving averages signal bullish the historical volatility gets subtracted from the low of that period.
Here is an example on NASDAQ:ARM :
After the first crossover, bullish signal, price runs for some time. As we get higher and higher so does the Volatility Stop. At the highs before a bearish crossover the price hits and closes at the Volatility Stop. Providing what could be an exit from a strong run up.
Intra-day example on NASDAQ:QQQ :
We see that in the early bearish move price goes on to hit the Volatility Stop before the trend switches.
We also see that in the failed long. The price action throughout the rest of the day, while not providing in profit stop outs, do provide fine directional alerts.
All those examples have been done with the default settings. Upon changing Moving Average One to a WMA and Moving Average Two to an SMA, as well as the lookback to 75. We see this quickly can become a simple trend follower.
This is the perspective we aim to provide. We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly. No indicator is 100% accurate. This one can give you a different perspective of price strength with volatility. We encourage any comments about desired updates or criticism!
Uptrick: DPO Signal & Zone Indicator
## **Uptrick: DPO Signal & Zone Indicator**
### **Introduction:**
The **Uptrick: DPO Signal & Zone Indicator** is a sophisticated technical analysis tool tailored to provide insights into market momentum, identify potential trading signals, and recognize extreme market conditions. It leverages the Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) to strip out long-term trends from price movements, allowing traders to focus on short-term fluctuations and cyclical behavior. The indicator integrates multiple components, including a Detrended Price Oscillator, a Signal Line, a Histogram, and customizable alert levels, to deliver a robust framework for market analysis and trading decision-making.
### **Detailed Breakdown:**
#### **1. Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO):**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- The DPO is designed to filter out long-term trends from the price data, isolating short-term price movements. This helps in understanding the cyclical patterns and momentum of an asset, allowing traders to detect periods of acceleration or deceleration that might be overlooked when focusing solely on long-term trends.
- **Calculation:**
- **Formula:** `dpo = close - ta.sma(close, smaLength)`
- **`close`:** The asset’s closing price for each period in the dataset.
- **`ta.sma(close, smaLength)`:** The Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing prices over a period defined by `smaLength`.
- The DPO is derived by subtracting the SMA value from the current closing price. This calculation reveals how much the current price deviates from the moving average, effectively detrending the price data.
- **Interpretation:**
- **Positive DPO Values:** Indicate that the current price is higher than the moving average, suggesting bullish market conditions and a potential upward trend.
- **Negative DPO Values:** Indicate that the current price is lower than the moving average, suggesting bearish market conditions and a potential downward trend.
- **Magnitude of DPO:** Reflects the strength of momentum. Larger positive or negative values suggest stronger momentum in the respective direction.
#### **2. Signal Line:**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- The Signal Line is a smoothed average of the DPO, intended to act as a reference point for generating trading signals. It helps to filter out short-term fluctuations and provides a clearer perspective on the prevailing trend.
- **Calculation:**
- **Formula:** `signalLine = ta.sma(dpo, signalLength)`
- **`ta.sma(dpo, signalLength)`:** The SMA of the DPO values over a period defined by `signalLength`.
- The Signal Line is calculated by applying a moving average to the DPO values. This smoothing process reduces noise and highlights the underlying trend direction.
- **Interpretation:**
- **DPO Crossing Above Signal Line:** Generates a buy signal, suggesting that short-term momentum is turning bullish relative to the longer-term trend.
- **DPO Crossing Below Signal Line:** Generates a sell signal, suggesting that short-term momentum is turning bearish relative to the longer-term trend.
- **Signal Line’s Role:** Provides a benchmark for assessing the strength of the DPO. The interaction between the DPO and the Signal Line offers actionable insights into potential entry or exit points.
#### **3. Histogram:**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- The Histogram visualizes the difference between the DPO and the Signal Line. It provides a graphical representation of momentum strength and direction, allowing traders to quickly gauge market conditions.
- **Calculation:**
- **Formula:** `histogram = dpo - signalLine`
- The Histogram is computed by subtracting the Signal Line value from the DPO value. Positive values indicate that the DPO is above the Signal Line, while negative values indicate that the DPO is below the Signal Line.
- **Interpretation:**
- **Color Coding:**
- **Green Bars:** Represent positive values, indicating bullish momentum.
- **Red Bars:** Represent negative values, indicating bearish momentum.
- **Width of Bars:** Indicates the strength of momentum. Wider bars signify stronger momentum, while narrower bars suggest weaker momentum.
- **Zero Line:** A horizontal gray line that separates positive and negative histogram values. Crosses of the histogram through this zero line can signal shifts in momentum direction.
#### **4. Alert Levels:**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- Alert levels define specific thresholds to identify extreme market conditions, such as overbought and oversold states. These levels help traders recognize potential reversal points and extreme market conditions.
- **Inputs:**
- **`alertLevel1`:** Defines the upper threshold for identifying overbought conditions.
- **Default Value:** 0.5
- **`alertLevel2`:** Defines the lower threshold for identifying oversold conditions.
- **Default Value:** -0.5
- **Interpretation:**
- **Overbought Condition:** When the DPO exceeds `alertLevel1`, indicating that the market may be overbought. This condition suggests that the asset could be due for a correction or reversal.
- **Oversold Condition:** When the DPO falls below `alertLevel2`, indicating that the market may be oversold. This condition suggests that the asset could be poised for a rebound or reversal.
#### **5. Visual Elements:**
- **DPO and Signal Line Plots:**
- **DPO Plot:**
- **Color:** Blue
- **Width:** 2 pixels
- **Purpose:** To visually represent the deviation of the current price from the moving average.
- **Signal Line Plot:**
- **Color:** Red
- **Width:** 1 pixel
- **Purpose:** To provide a smoothed reference for the DPO and generate trading signals.
- **Histogram Plot:**
- **Color Coding:**
- **Green:** For positive values, signaling bullish momentum.
- **Red:** For negative values, signaling bearish momentum.
- **Style:** Histogram bars are displayed with varying width to represent the strength of momentum.
- **Zero Line:** A gray horizontal line separating positive and negative histogram values.
- **Overbought/Oversold Zones:**
- **Background Colors:**
- **Green Shading:** Applied when the DPO exceeds `alertLevel1`, indicating an overbought condition.
- **Red Shading:** Applied when the DPO falls below `alertLevel2`, indicating an oversold condition.
- **Horizontal Lines:**
- **Dotted Green Line:** At `alertLevel1`, marking the upper alert threshold.
- **Dotted Red Line:** At `alertLevel2`, marking the lower alert threshold.
- **Purpose:** To provide clear visual cues for extreme market conditions, aiding in the identification of potential reversal points.
#### **6. Trading Signals and Alerts:**
- **Buy Signal:**
- **Trigger:** When the DPO crosses above the Signal Line.
- **Visual Representation:** A "BUY" label appears below the price bar in the specified buy color.
- **Purpose:** Indicates a potential buying opportunity as short-term momentum turns bullish.
- **Sell Signal:**
- **Trigger:** When the DPO crosses below the Signal Line.
- **Visual Representation:** A "SELL" label appears above the price bar in the specified sell color.
- **Purpose:** Indicates a potential selling opportunity as short-term momentum turns bearish.
- **Overbought/Oversold Alerts:**
- **Overbought Alert:** Triggered when the DPO crosses below `alertLevel1`.
- **Oversold Alert:** Triggered when the DPO crosses above `alertLevel2`.
- **Visual Representation:** Labels "OVERBOUGHT" and "OVERSOLD" appear with distinctive colors and sizes to highlight extreme conditions.
- **Purpose:** To signal potential reversal points and extreme market conditions that may lead to price corrections or trend reversals.
