Breakout Volume Momentum [5m]Breakout Volume Momentum Indicator (Pine Script v5)
This TradingView Pine Script v5 indicator plots a green dot below a 5-minute price bar whenever all the breakout and volume conditions are met. It is optimized for live intraday trading (not backtesting) and includes customizable inputs for thresholds and trading session times. Key features and conditions of this indicator:
Gap Up Threshold: Current price is up at least X% (default 20%) from the previous day’s close (uses higher-timeframe daily data) before any signal can trigger.
Relative Volume (RVOL): Current bar’s volume is at least Y× (default 2×) the average volume of the last 20 bars. This ensures unusually high volume is present, indicating strong interest.
Trend Alignment: Price is trading above the VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) and above a fast EMA. In addition, the fast EMA (default 9) is above the slower EMA (default 20) to confirm bullish momentum

. These filters ensure the stock is in an intraday uptrend (above the average price and rising EMAs).
Intraday Breakout (optional): Optionally require the price to break above the recent intraday high (default last 30 bars). If enabled, a signal only occurs when the stock exceeds its prior range high, confirming a breakout. This can be toggled on/off in the settings.
Avoid Parabolic Spikes: The script skips any bar with an excessively large range (default >12% from low to high), to avoid triggering on spiky or unsustainable parabolic candles.
Time Window Filter: Signals are restricted to a specific session window (by default 09:30 – 11:00 exchange time, typically the morning session) and will not trigger outside these hours. The session window is adjustable via inputs

Divergence Screener [Trendoscope®]🎲Overview
The Divergence Screener is a powerful TradingView indicator designed to detect and visualize bullish and bearish divergences, including hidden divergences, between price action and a user-selected oscillator. Built with flexibility in mind, it allows traders to customize the oscillator type, trend detection method, and other parameters to suit various trading strategies. The indicator is non-overlay, displaying divergence signals directly on the oscillator plot, with visual cues such as lines and labels on the chart for easy identification.
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking to identify potential reversal or continuation signals based on price-oscillator divergences. It supports multiple oscillators, trend detection methods, and alert configurations, making it versatile for different markets and timeframes.
🎲Features
🎯Customizable Oscillator Selection
Built-in Oscillators : Choose from a variety of oscillators including RSI, CCI, CMO, COG, MFI, ROC, Stochastic, and WPR.
External Oscillator Support : Users can input an external oscillator source, allowing integration with custom or third-party indicators.
Configurable Length : Adjust the oscillator’s period (e.g., 14 for RSI) to fine-tune sensitivity.
🎯Divergence Detection
The screener identifies four types of divergences:
Bullish Divergence : Price forms a lower low, but the oscillator forms a higher low, signaling potential upward reversal.
Bearish Divergence : Price forms a higher high, but the oscillator forms a lower high, indicating potential downward reversal.
Bullish Hidden Divergence : Price forms a higher low, but the oscillator forms a lower low, suggesting trend continuation in an uptrend.
Bearish Hidden Divergence : Price forms a lower high, but the oscillator forms a higher high, suggesting trend continuation in a downtrend.
🎯Flexible Trend Detection
The indicator offers three methods to determine the trend context for divergence detection:
Zigzag : Uses zigzag pivots to identify trends based on higher highs (HH), higher lows (HL), lower highs (LH), and lower lows (LL).
MA Difference : Calculates the trend based on the difference in a moving average (e.g., SMA, EMA) between divergence pivots.
External Trend Signal : Allows users to input an external trend signal (positive for uptrend, negative for downtrend) for custom trend analysis.
🎯Zigzag-Based Pivot Analysis
Customizable Zigzag Length : Adjust the zigzag length (default: 13) to control the sensitivity of pivot detection.
Repaint Option : Choose whether divergence lines repaint based on the latest data or wait for confirmed pivots, balancing responsiveness and reliability.
🎯Visual and Alert Features
Divergence Visualization : Divergence lines are drawn between price pivots and oscillator pivots, color-coded for easy identification:
Bullish Divergence : Green
Bearish Divergence : Red
Bullish Hidden Divergence : Lime
Bearish Hidden Divergence : Orange
Labels and Tooltips : Labels (e.g., “D” for divergence, “H” for hidden) appear on price and oscillator pivots, with tooltips providing detailed information such as price/oscillator values, ratios, and pivot directions.
Alerts : Configurable alerts for each divergence type (bullish, bearish, bullish hidden, bearish hidden) trigger on bar close, ensuring timely notifications.
🎲 How It Works
🎯Oscillator Calculation
The indicator calculates the selected oscillator (or uses an external source) and plots it on the chart.
Oscillator values are stored in a map for reference during divergence calculations.
🎯Pivot Detection
A zigzag algorithm identifies pivots in the oscillator data, with configurable length and repainting options.
Price and oscillator pivots are compared to detect divergences based on their direction and ratio.
🎯Divergence Identification
The indicator compares price and oscillator pivot directions (HH, HL, LH, LL) to identify divergences.
Trend context is determined using the selected method (Zigzag, MA Difference, or External).
Divergences are classified as bullish, bearish, bullish hidden, or bearish hidden based on price-oscillator relationships and trend direction.
🎯Visualization and Alerts
Valid divergences are drawn as lines connecting price and oscillator pivots, with corresponding labels.
Alerts are triggered for allowed divergence types, providing detailed information via tooltips.
🎯Validation
Divergence lines are validated to ensure no intermediate bars violate the divergence condition, enhancing signal reliability.
🎲 Usage Instructions as Indicator
🎯Add to Chart:
Add the “Divergence Screener ” to your TradingView chart.
The indicator appears in a separate pane below the price chart, plotting the oscillator and divergence signals.
🎯Configure Settings:
Adjust the oscillator type and length to match your trading style.
Select a trend detection method and configure related parameters (e.g., MA type/length or external signal).
Set the zigzag length and repainting preference.
Enable/disable alerts for specific divergence types.
I🎯nterpret Signals:
Bullish Divergence (Green) : Look for potential buy opportunities in a downtrend.
Bearish Divergence (Red) : Consider sell opportunities in an uptrend.
Bullish Hidden Divergence (Lime) : Confirm continuation in an uptrend.
Bearish Hidden Divergence (Orange): Confirm continuation in a downtrend.
Use tooltips on labels to review detailed pivot and divergence information.
🎯Set Alerts:
Create alerts for each divergence type to receive notifications via TradingView’s alert system.
Alerts include detailed text with price, oscillator, and divergence information.
🎲 Example Scenarios as Indicator
🎯 With External Oscillator (Use MACD Histogram as Oscillator)
In order to use MACD as an oscillator for divergence signal instead of the built in options, follow these steps.
Load MACD Indicator from Indicator library
From Indicator settings of Divergence Screener, set Use External Oscillator and select MACD Histograme from the dropdown
You can now see that the oscillator pane shows the data of selected MACD histogram and divergence signals are generated based on the external MACD histogram data.
🎯 With External Trend Signal (Supertrend Ladder ATR)
Now let's demonstrate how to use external direction signals using Supertrend Ladder ATR indicator. Please note that in order to use the indicator as trend source, the indicator should return positive integer for uptrend and negative integer for downtrend. Steps are as follows:
Load the desired trend indicator. In this example, we are using Supertrend Ladder ATR
From the settings of Divergence Screener, select "External" as Trend Detection Method
Select the trend detection plot Direction from the dropdown. You can now see that the divergence signals will rely on the new trend settings rather than the built in options.
🎲 Using the Script with Pine Screener
The primary purpose of the Divergence Screener is to enable traders to scan multiple instruments (e.g., stocks, ETFs, forex pairs) for divergence signals using TradingView’s Pine Screener, facilitating efficient comparison and identification of trading opportunities.
To use the Divergence Screener as a screener, follow these steps:
Add to Favorites : Add the Divergence Screener to your TradingView favorites to make it available in the Pine Screener.

Percent Change IndicatorPercent Change Indicator Description
Overview:
The Percent Change Indicator is a Pine Script (version 6) indicator designed for TradingView to calculate and visualize the percentage change of the current close price relative to a user-selected reference price. It provides a customizable interface to display percentage changes as candlesticks or a line plot, with optional horizontal lines and labels for key levels. The indicator also includes visual signals and alerts for user-defined percentage thresholds, making it useful for identifying significant price movements.
Key Features:
1. Percentage Change Calculation:
- Computes the percentage change of the current close price compared to a reference price, scaled by a user-defined length parameter.
- Formula: percentChange = (close - refPrice) / refPrice * len
- The reference price is sourced from a user-selected timeframe (default: 1D) and price type (Open, High, Low, Close, HL2, HLC3, or HLCC4).
2. Visualization Options:
- Candlestick Plot: Displays percentage change as candlesticks, colored green for rising values and red for falling values.
- Line Plot: Plots the percentage change as a line, with the same color logic.
- Horizontal Lines: Optional horizontal lines at key percentage levels (0%, ±0.2%, ±0.5%, ±0.8%, ±1%) for reference.
- Labels: Optional labels for percentage levels (0, ±15%, ±35%, ±50%, ±65%, ±85%, ±100%) displayed at the chart's right edge.
- All visualizations are toggleable via input settings.
3. Signal and Alert System:
- Threshold-Based Signals: Plots green triangles below bars for long signals (percent change above a user-defined threshold) and red triangles above bars for short signals (percent change below the threshold).
- Alerts: Configurable alerts for long and short conditions, triggered when the percentage change crosses the user-defined threshold (default: 2%). Alert messages include the threshold value for clarity.
4. Customizable Inputs:
- Show Labels: Toggle visibility of percentage level labels (default: true).
- Show Percentage Change: Toggle the line plot of percentage change (default: true).
- Show HLines: Toggle visibility of horizontal reference lines (default: false).
- Show Candle Plot: Toggle the candlestick plot (default: true).
- Percent Change Length: Adjust the scaling factor for percentage change (default: 14).
- Plot Timeframe: Select the timeframe for the reference price (default: 1D).
- Price Type: Choose the reference price type (Open, High, Low, Close, HL2, HLC3, HLCC4; default: Open).
- Percentage Threshold: Set the threshold for long/short signals and alerts (default: 0.02 or 2%).
How It Works:
- The indicator fetches the reference price using request.security() based on the selected timeframe and price type.
- It calculates the percentage change and scales it by the user-defined length.
- Visuals (candlesticks, lines, labels, horizontal lines) are plotted based on user preferences.
- Long and short signals are generated when the percentage change exceeds or falls below the user-defined threshold, with corresponding triangles plotted and alerts triggered.
Use Cases:
- Trend Identification: Monitor significant price movements relative to a reference price.
- Signal Generation: Identify potential entry/exit points based on percentage change thresholds.
- Custom Analysis: Analyze price changes across different timeframes and price types for various trading strategies.
- Alert Notifications: Receive alerts for significant price movements to stay informed without constant chart monitoring.

Mogwai Method with RSI and EMA - BTCUSD 15mThis is a custom TradingView indicator designed for trading Bitcoin (BTCUSD) on a 15-minute timeframe. It’s based on the Mogwai Method—a mean-reversion strategy—enhanced with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for momentum confirmation. The indicator generates buy and sell signals, visualized as green and red triangle arrows on the chart, to help identify potential entry and exit points in the volatile cryptocurrency market.
Components
Bollinger Bands (BB):
Purpose: Identifies overextended price movements, signaling potential reversions to the mean.
Parameters:
Length: 20 periods (standard for mean-reversion).
Multiplier: 2.2 (slightly wider than the default 2.0 to suit BTCUSD’s volatility).
Role:
Buy signal when price drops below the lower band (oversold).
Sell signal when price rises above the upper band (overbought).
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
Purpose: Confirms momentum to filter out false signals from Bollinger Bands.
Parameters:
Length: 14 periods (classic setting, effective for crypto).
Overbought Level: 70 (price may be overextended upward).
Oversold Level: 30 (price may be overextended downward).
Role:
Buy signal requires RSI < 30 (oversold).
Sell signal requires RSI > 70 (overbought).
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) (Plotted but not currently in signal logic):
Purpose: Provides trend context (included in the script for visualization, optional for signal filtering).
Parameters:
Fast EMA: 9 periods (short-term trend).
Slow EMA: 50 periods (longer-term trend).
Role: Can be re-added to filter signals (e.g., buy only when Fast EMA > Slow EMA).
Signals (Triangles):
Buy Signal: Green upward triangle below the bar when price is below the lower Bollinger Band and RSI is below 30.
Sell Signal: Red downward triangle above the bar when price is above the upper Bollinger Band and RSI is above 70.
How It Works
The indicator combines Bollinger Bands and RSI to spot mean-reversion opportunities:
Buy Condition: Price breaks below the lower Bollinger Band (indicating oversold conditions), and RSI confirms this with a reading below 30.
Sell Condition: Price breaks above the upper Bollinger Band (indicating overbought conditions), and RSI confirms this with a reading above 70.
The strategy assumes that extreme price movements in BTCUSD will often revert to the mean, especially in choppy or ranging markets.
Visual Elements
Green Upward Triangles: Appear below the candlestick to indicate a buy signal.
Red Downward Triangles: Appear above the candlestick to indicate a sell signal.
Bollinger Bands: Gray lines (upper, middle, lower) plotted for reference.
EMAs: Blue (Fast) and Orange (Slow) lines for trend visualization.
How to Use the Indicator
Setup
Open TradingView:
Log into TradingView and select a BTCUSD chart from a supported exchange (e.g., Binance, Coinbase, Bitfinex).
Set Timeframe:
Switch the chart to a 15-minute timeframe (15m).
Add the Indicator:
Open the Pine Editor (bottom panel in TradingView).
Copy and paste the script provided.
Click “Add to Chart” to apply it.
Verify Display:
You should see Bollinger Bands (gray), Fast EMA (blue), Slow EMA (orange), and buy/sell triangles when conditions are met.
Trading Guidelines
Buy Signal (Green Triangle Below Bar):
What It Means: Price is oversold, potentially ready to bounce back toward the Bollinger Band middle line.
Action:
Enter a long position (buy BTCUSD).
Set a take-profit near the middle Bollinger Band (bb_middle) or a resistance level.
Place a stop-loss 1-2% below the entry (or based on ATR, e.g., ta.atr(14) * 2).
Best Context: Works well in ranging markets; avoid during strong downtrends.
Sell Signal (Red Triangle Above Bar):
What It Means: Price is overbought, potentially ready to drop back toward the middle line.
Action:
Enter a short position (sell BTCUSD) or exit a long position.
Set a take-profit near the middle Bollinger Band or a support level.
Place a stop-loss 1-2% above the entry.
Best Context: Effective in ranging markets; avoid during strong uptrends.
Trend Filter (Optional):
To reduce false signals in trending markets, you can modify the script:

Tips for BTCUSD on 15-Minute Charts
Volatility: BTCUSD can be erratic. If signals are too frequent, increase bb_mult (e.g., to 2.5) or adjust RSI levels (e.g., 75/25).
Confirmation: Use volume spikes or candlestick patterns (e.g., doji, engulfing) to confirm signals.
Time of Day: Mean-reversion works best during low-volume periods (e.g., Asian session in crypto).
Backtesting: Use TradingView’s Strategy Tester (convert to a strategy by adding entry/exit logic) to evaluate performance with historical BTCUSD data up to March 13, 2025.
Risk Management
Position Size: Risk no more than 1-2% of your account per trade.
Stop Losses: Always use stops to protect against BTCUSD’s sudden moves.
Avoid Overtrading: Wait for clear signals; don’t force trades in choppy or unclear conditions.
Example Scenario
Chart: BTCUSD, 15-minute timeframe.
Buy Signal: Price drops to $58,000, below the lower Bollinger Band, RSI at 28. A green triangle appears.
Action: Buy at $58,000, target $59,000 (middle BB), stop at $57,500.
Sell Signal: Price rises to $60,500, above the upper Bollinger Band, RSI at 72. A red triangle appears.
Action: Sell at $60,500, target $59,500 (middle BB), stop at $61,000.
This indicator is tailored for mean-reversion trading on BTCUSD. Let me know if you’d like to tweak it further (e.g., add filters, alerts, or alternative indicators)!
Gann & Fibonacci Analysis for MSTRYes! Below is a step-by-step guide to performing Gann Analysis on MSTR in TradingView for the last year.
Step 1: Set Up the Chart
Open TradingView and search for MSTR (MicroStrategy).
Select the 1-day (D) timeframe to analyze the past year.
Set your chart to logarithmic scale (⚙ Settings → Scale → Log).
Enable grid lines for alignment (⚙ Settings → Appearance → Grid Lines).
Step 2: Identify Key Highs and Lows (Last Year)
Find the 52-week high and 52-week low for MSTR.
As of now:
52-Week High: ~$999 (March 2024).
52-Week Low: ~$280 (October 2023).
Step 3: Plot Gann Angles
Using TradingView's Gann Fan Tool:
Select "Gann Fan" (Press / and type “Gann Fan” to find it).
Start at the 52-week low (~$280, October 2023) and drag upwards.
Adjust the angles to match key levels:
1x1 (45°) → Main trendline
2x1 (26.5°) → Strong uptrend
4x1 (15°) → Weak trendline
1x2 (63.75°) → Strong resistance
Repeat the process from the 52-week high (~$999, March 2024) downward to see bearish angles.
Step 4: Apply Fibonacci & Gann Retracement Levels
Using Fibonacci Retracement:
Select "Fibonacci Retracement" tool.
Draw from 52-week high ($999) to 52-week low ($280).
Enable key Fibonacci levels:
23.6% ($816)
38.2% ($678)
50% ($640)
61.8% ($550)
78.6% ($430)
Watch for price reactions near these levels.
Using Gann Retracement Levels:
Select "Gann Box" in TradingView.
Draw from 52-week high ($999) to low ($280).
Enable key Gann retracement levels:
12.5% ($912)
25% ($850)
37.5% ($768)
50% ($640)
62.5% ($550)
75% ($480)
87.5% ($350)
Identify confluences with Gann angles and Fibonacci levels.
Step 5: Identify Significant Dates & Time Cycles
Use "Date Range" Tool in TradingView.
Mark major turning points:
High → Low: ~180 days (Half-year cycle).
Low → High: ~90 days (Quarter cycle).
Use Square-Outs (Time = Price method):
Example: If MSTR hit $500, check 500 days from key events.
Mark key anniversaries of past highs/lows for possible reversals.
Step 6: Analyze and Trade Execution
✅ If MSTR is at a Gann angle + Fibonacci level + key date → Expect a reaction.
✅ Use RSI, MACD, and Volume for extra confirmation.
✅ Set Stop-Loss at nearest Gann support/resistance.
Backtesting ModuleDo you often find yourself creating new 'strategy()' scripts for each trading system? Are you unable to focus on generating new systems due to fatigue and time loss incurred in the process? Here's a potential solution: the 'Backtesting Module' :)
INTRODUCTION
Every trading system is based on four basic conditions: long entry, long exit, short entry and short exit (which are typically defined as boolean series in Pine Script).
If you can define the conditions generated by your trading system as a series of integers, it becomes possible to use these variables in different scripts in efficient ways. (Pine Script is a convenient language that allows you to use the integer output of one indicator as a source in another.)
The 'Backtesting Module' is a dynamic strategy script designed to adapt to your signals. It boasts two notable features:
⮞ It produces a backtest report using the entry and exit variables you define.
⮞ It not only serves for system testing but also to combine independent signals into a single system. (This functionality enables to create complex strategies and report on their success!)
The module tests Golden and Death cross signals by default, when you enter your own conditions the default signals will be neutralized. The methodology is described below.
PREPARATION
There are three simple steps to connect your own indicator to the Module.
STEP 1
Firstly, you must define entry and exit variables in your own script. Let's elucidate it with a straightforward example. Consider a system generating long and short signals based on the intersections of two moving averages. Consequently, our conditions would be as follows:
// Signals
long = ta.crossover(ta.sma(close, 14), ta.sma(close, 28))
short = ta.crossunder(ta.sma(close, 14), ta.sma(close, 28))
Now, the question is: How can we convert boolean variables into integer variables? The answer is conditional ternary block, defined as follows:
// Entry & Exit
long_entry = long ? 1 : 0
long_exit = short ? 1 : 0
short_entry = short ? 1 : 0
short_exit = long ? 1 : 0
The mechanics of the Entry & Exit variables are simple. The variable takes on a value of 1 when your trading system generates the signal and if your system does not produce any signal, variable returns 0. In this example, you see how exit signals can be generated in a trading system that only contains entry signals. If you have a system with original exit signals, you can also use them directly. (Please mind the NOTES section below).
STEP 2
To utilize the Entry & Exit variables as source in another script, they must be plotted on the chart. Therefore, the final detail to include in the script containing your trading system would be as follows:
// Plot The Output
plot(long_entry, "Long Entry", display=display.data_window, editable=false)
plot(long_exit, "Long Exit", display=display.data_window, editable=false)
plot(short_entry, "Short Entry", display=display.data_window, editable=false)
plot(short_exit, "Short Exit", display=display.data_window, editable=false)
STEP 3
Now, we are ready to test the system! Load the Backtesting Module indicator onto the chart along with your trading system/indicator. Then set the outputs of your system (Long Entry, Long Exit, Short Entry, Short Exit) as source in the module. That's it.
FEATURES & ORIGINALITY
⮞ Primarily, this script has been created to provide you with an easy and practical method when testing your trading system.
⮞ I thought it might be nice to visualize a few useful results. The Backtesting Module provides insights into the outcomes of both long and short trades by computing the number of trades and the success percentage.
⮞ Through the 'Trade' parameter, users can specify the market direction in which the indicator is permitted to initiate positions.
⮞ Users have the flexibility to define the date range for the test.
⮞ There are optional features allowing users to plot entry prices on the chart and customize bar colors.
⮞ The report and the test date range are presented in a table on the chart screen. The entry price can be monitored in the data window.
⮞ Note that results are based on realized returns, and the open trade is not included in the displayed results. (The only exception is the 'Unrealized PNL' result in the table.)
STRATEGY SETTINGS
The default parameters are as follows:
⮞ Initial Balance : 10000 (in units of currency)
⮞ Quantity : 10% of equity
⮞ Commission : 0.04%
⮞ Slippage : 0
⮞ Dataset : All bars in the chart
For a realistic backtest result, you should size trades to only risk sustainable amounts of equity. Do not risk more than 5-10% on a trade. And ALWAYS configure your commission and slippage parameters according to pessimistic scenarios!
NOTES
⮞ This script is intended solely for development purposes. And it'll will be available for all the indicators I publish.
⮞ In this version of the module, all order types are designed as market orders. The exit size is the sum of the entry size.
⮞ As your trading conditions grow more intricate, you might need to define the outputs of your system in alternative ways. The method outlined in this description is tailored for straightforward signal structures.
⮞ Additionally, depending on the structure of your trading system, the backtest module may require further development. This encompasses stop-loss, take-profit, specific exit orders, quantity, margin and risk management calculations. I am considering releasing improvements that consider these options in future versions.
⮞ An example of how complex trading signals can be generated is the OTT Collection. If you're interested in seeing how the signals are constructed, you can use the link below.

JK - Q SuiteThis indicator is primarily for identifying pauses in Stage 2 uptrends, modelled on Qullamaggie's style of trading, but fits well with many traders including William O' Neil. or Mark Minervini.
I built this for my own purposes, and have gradually added range of tools into a single suite. My goal has also to be as clean as possible, while providing clear, actionable information.
This suite includes all of the following:
Moving averages (10, 20, 50, 200)
Coloured bars showing tightening price (blue under 75% of ADR, orange under 50% of ADR)
A 'markets' dashboard (top-right), showing the major indexes. Red if 10<20MA, or price <20MA
A 'sectors' dashboard (top-right, below markets). Red if 5<10MA, or price <10MA - see note below
Strength / Weakness information - two cells at the top, bottom-right. See below
Stock information - glanceable stock info as quick filters. The thresholds for ADR, Average volume, and Dollar Volume can be customised.
NOTE - if the 'tightening coloured candles' are not showing, the indicator needs to be at the top of the stack. Click the triple squares at the very bottom-right of the TradingView interface, and drag the indicator to the top, should work then!
=============
Sectors
These are based on the 11 official Sectors, tracked using index funds (XLY, XLK etc). HOWEVER, TradingView does NOT use the official 11 sectors - therefore I've done my best to match TradingViews ones to the official ones, but doesn't always work... e.g. 'Electronic Technology' is typically semiconductors, which are classes as 'Industrials', but Apple is the same sector in TV, but classed as 'Technology' using the official 11 Sectors.
If TradingView move to use the official 11 I'll update this, but for now it's a best guess and will sometimes be wrong, sorry!
Strength / Weakness information
This was an experiment in trying not to give too much back to the market! Typically the strategy would be to sell if price closes below 10MA (Weakness), however there may be large pops that can be advantageous to sell into.
The 'Strength' information (top cell, bottom-right), checks how far the price is extended above 10MA - this is customisable as a multiple of ADR. You may find that in weak markets (like now), it can be best to take profits quickly - in good markets, you could increase this as stocks make bigger or more sustained moves.
=============
While I'm not the best coder - and I've hacked and tried and changed different things - this has been a labour of love and essential for me.
If you have any suggestions, while I may or may not be able to implement them, I'm certainly open to ideas!
Ultimate P&L IndicatorHello everyone,
Excited to release this P&L Indicator! Read below for more details.
What it does:
This is an indicator that permits you to track your active P&L live on Tradingview. As well, it provides some insight into DCAing your position by giving you live estimates of your revised DCA if you were to add to your position at various targets/price points.
Who is it for:
I developed it because I trade 100% off of Tradingview but my broker does not support Tradingview integration. So I wanted a way to track my position live on the Tradingview platform without having to constantly reference my broker. I also wanted to be able to set position specific alerts right on Tradingview.
How does it work:
It works by the user manually inputting their trade information, including their DCA, position size and the date and time of position entry. The indicator can provide real time and live DCA adjusted estimates if you were to add to your position at the current stock price, or you can manually calculcate your revised DCA at a specific price target.
The indicator also displays your current and past performance on your position for the duration of the position period:
Elements:
Capabilities:
The indicator is compatible with both futures and share trading.
Option trading is not directly available, however, you can get an idea for your option position P&L by following the 1 option contract = 100 share rule.
So if you have 5 option contracts that you bought at a ticker price of, say, 38$, your average cost or DCA would be 38 and your position size would be 500. This will not be 100% accurate, but will be close enough to give you a feel for your active P&L.
If you are trading futures, you will need to select "Futures Trading" and specify the TIck and Index costs. A cheat sheet has been provided in the tool tip for ES, Oil and MNQ. The default is set for ES1! mini futures at 0.25 ticks per 50$.
Important tips:
1. Select the date and time of your position (optional): This is optional but will provide you with the clearest and most accurate review of how your position has performed, including the highest and lowest (drawdown).
2. Select whether it is a share position or a futures position (this is required).
3. Select whether it is a long or short position (this is required).
4. Input your DCA and position size (this is required).
5. Most importantly, select the ticker your position is based in!
I have also prepared a quick start video which is linked below:
As always, please let me know your comments/questions and feedback for the indicator.
Thanks for checking it out and safe trades everyone!
Ultimate Oscillator + Realtime DivergencesUltimate Oscillator (UO) + Realtime Divergences + Alerts + Lookback periods.
This version of the Ultimate Oscillator adds the following 5 additional features to the stock UO by Tradingview:
- Optional divergence lines drawn directly onto the oscillator in realtime
- Configurable alerts to notify you when divergences occur, as well as centerline crossovers.
- Configurable lookback periods to fine tune the divergences drawn in order to suit different trading styles and timeframes.
- Background colouring option to indicate when the UO has crossed the centerline, or optionally when both the UO and an external oscillator, which can be linked via the settings, have both crossed their centerlines.
- Alternate timeframe feature allows you to configure the oscillator to use data from a different timeframe than the chart it is loaded on.
This indicator adds additional features onto the stock Ultimate Oscillator by Tradingview, whose core calculations remain unchanged. Namely the configurable option to automatically and clearly draw divergence lines onto the oscillator for you as they occur in realtime. It also has the addition of unique alerts, so you can be notified as divergences occur without spending all day watching the charts. Furthermore, this version of the Ultimate Oscillator comes with configurable lookback periods, which can be configured in order to adjust the length of the divergences, in order to suit shorter or higher timeframe trading approaches.
The Ultimate Oscillator
Tradingview describes the Ultimate Oscillator as follows:
“The Ultimate Oscillator indicator (UO) indicator is a technical analysis tool used to measure momentum across three varying timeframes. The problem with many momentum oscillators is that after a rapid advance or decline in price, they can form false divergence trading signals. For example, after a rapid rise in price, a bearish divergence signal may present itself, however price continues to rise. The ultimate Oscillator attempts to correct this by using multiple timeframes in its calculation as opposed to just one timeframe which is what is used in most other momentum oscillators.”
More information on the history, use cases and calculations of the Ultimate Oscillator can be found here: www.tradingview.com
What are divergences?
Divergence is when the price of an asset is moving in the opposite direction of a technical indicator, such as an oscillator, or is moving contrary to other data. Divergence warns that the current price trend may be weakening, and in some cases may lead to the price changing direction.
There are 4 main types of divergence, which are split into 2 categories;
regular divergences and hidden divergences. Regular divergences indicate possible trend reversals, and hidden divergences indicate possible trend continuation.
Regular bullish divergence: An indication of a potential trend reversal, from the current downtrend, to an uptrend.
Regular bearish divergence: An indication of a potential trend reversal, from the current uptrend, to a downtrend.
Hidden bullish divergence: An indication of a potential uptrend continuation.
Hidden bearish divergence: An indication of a potential downtrend continuation.
Setting alerts.
With this indicator you can set alerts to notify you when any/all of the above types of divergences occur, on any chart timeframe you choose.
Configurable lookback values.
You can adjust the default lookback values to suit your prefered trading style and timeframe. If you like to trade a shorter time frame, lowering the default lookback values will make the divergences drawn more sensitive to short term price action.
How do traders use divergences in their trading?
A divergence is considered a leading indicator in technical analysis , meaning it has the ability to indicate a potential price move in the short term future.
Hidden bullish and hidden bearish divergences, which indicate a potential continuation of the current trend are sometimes considered a good place for traders to begin, since trend continuation occurs more frequently than reversals, or trend changes.
When trading regular bullish divergences and regular bearish divergences, which are indications of a trend reversal, the probability of it doing so may increase when these occur at a strong support or resistance level . A common mistake new traders make is to get into a regular divergence trade too early, assuming it will immediately reverse, but these can continue to form for some time before the trend eventually changes, by using forms of support or resistance as an added confluence, such as when price reaches a moving average, the success rate when trading these patterns may increase.
Typically, traders will manually draw lines across the swing highs and swing lows of both the price chart and the oscillator to see whether they appear to present a divergence, this indicator will draw them for you, quickly and clearly, and can notify you when they occur.

True Strength Indicator + Realtime DivergencesTrue Strength Indicator (TSI) + Realtime Divergences + Alerts + Lookback periods.
This version of the True Strength Indicator adds the following 5 additional features to the stock TSI by Tradingview:
- Optional divergence lines drawn directly onto the oscillator in realtime.
- Configurable alerts to notify you when divergences occur, as well as when the TSI and lagline bands crossover one another, when the oscillator begins heading up, or heading down.
- Configurable lookback periods to fine tune the divergences drawn in order to suit different trading styles and timeframes.
- Background colouring option to indicate when the two TSI bands, the TSI line and the TSI lagline, have crossed one another, either moving upwards or downwards, or optionally when the two TSI bands have crossed upwards and an external oscillator, which can be linked via the settings, has crossed above its centerline, and the TSI bands have crossed downwards and the external oscillator has crossed below its centerline.
- Alternate timeframe feature allows you to configure the oscillator to use data from a different timeframe than the chart it is loaded on.
This indicator adds additional features onto the stock TSI by Tradingview, whose core calculations remain unchanged, although this version has different settings as default to suit a shorter time period (it uses 6, 13, 4 by default, whereas the stock TSI typically ships with higher values, e.g. 25, 13, 13). Namely the configurable option to automatically, quickly and clearly draw divergence lines onto the oscillator for you as they occur in realtime. It also has the addition of unique alerts, so you can be notified when divergences occur without spending all day watching the charts. Furthermore, this version of the TSI comes with configurable lookback periods, which can be configured in order to adjust the sensitivity of the divergences, in order to suit shorter or higher timeframe trading approaches.
The True Strength Indicator
Tradingview describes the True Strength Indicator as follows:
“The True Strength Index (TSI) is a momentum oscillator that ranges between limits of -100 and +100 and has a base value of 0. Momentum is positive when the oscillator is positive (pointing to a bullish market bias) and vice versa. It was developed by William Blau and consists of 2 lines: the index line and an exponential moving average of the TSI, called the signal line. Traders may look for any of the following 5 types of conditions: overbought, oversold, centerline crossover, divergence and signal line crossover. The indicator is often used in combination with other signals..”

Silen's Financials P/E & P/S[x10] RatesThis script aims to give a better visualization of P/E and P/S rates compared to the build-in "Price to earnings ratio" and "Price to sales ratio" in the "Financials" Section of Tradingview. For those of you don't know, those rates compare earnings and sales with your share price in regard to market cap and outstanding shares.
The scripts differs to the build-in versions in the following points:
- P/E & P/S rates are combined in one indicator
- Negative P/E rates are displayed better: Positive P/E rates are green, Negative P/E rates are red
- For visualization reasons, the indicator will cap positive and negative P/E rates at 100. (P/E rates above those levels are not siginificant either way)
- P/E & P/S rate are directly displayed on the graph
- Both P/E and P/S rates are combined on one left scale
- For visualization reasons, P/S rate is showing 10x the actual P/S rate. Using the standard P/S rate would result in hard-to-recognize changes of the P/S line.
To sum up:
- Positive P/E rates are green
- Negative P/E rate are red
- P/S rates are multiplied by 1 0
- P/S rates are yellow
How to use P/E and P/S rates:
The US market average for P/E rates is roughly ~18 in the US right now (10/2022) while the market average for P/S rates is roughly ~3 in the US. Note that average P/E and P/S can change when the market situation changes.
P/E and P/S rates help you value your stock better and help you decide whether your stock is undervalued or overvalued compared to the market or the industry when it comes to earnings and sales. If you compare to Market averages, a positive P/E of less than 18 means that your stock is likely unvervalued. A P/S rate below 3 (30 in the chart!) means that your stock is likely undervalued as well. If your stock shows rates above those, it is likely that it is overvalued compared to market averages.
Please note that P/E and P/S rates are not the only factors that make up a stock valuation. Valuations are complex and subjective.
A positive P/E rate also means that your company is profitable.
A Negative P/E rate means that your company is unprofitable.
If you have any questions or feedback let me know!
Disclaimer: This script doesn't show the actual P/S rate. It shows the P/S rate multiplied by 10, due to visualization issues. Positive P/E Rates above 100 are displayed as 100. Positive P/E rates are green, Negative P/E rates are red and multiplied by -1.
Disclaimer2: @Tradingview_Team: I couldn't find the right category for this script but categories are mandatory. I assume that "Breadth Indicators" is still the closest there is. Please let me know if you want me to change the category.
Disclaimer3: For visualization, the opacity of the displayed image is 70%. The standard opacity for the P/E and P/S lines is 50% and can be changed in the indicator settings. I found this setting more useful when working together with other indicators on the same chart
Disclaimer4: Earnings Per Share, Total Revenue used are TTM. Total Shares Outstanding used are FQ.
Line breakI decided to help TradingView programmers and wrote code that converts a standard candles / bars to a line break chart. The built-in linebreak() and security() functions for constructing a Linear Break chart are bad, the chart is not built correctly, and does not correspond to the Line Breakout chart built into TradingView. I’m talking about simulating the Linear Break lines using the plotcandle() annotation, because these are the same candles without shadows. When you try to use the market simulator, when the gaps are turned on in the security() function, nothing is added to the chart, and when turned off, a completely different line break chart is drawn. Do not try to write strategies based on the built-in linebreak() function! The developers write in the manual: "Please note that you cannot plot Line Break boxes from Pine script exactly as they look. You can only get a series of numbers similar to OHLC values for Line Break charts and use them in your algorithms." However, it is possible to build a “Linear Breakthrough” chart exactly like the “Linear Breakthrough" chart built into TradingView. Personally, I had enough Pine Script functionality.
For a complete understanding of how such a graph is built, you can refer to Steve Nison's book “BEYOND JAPANESE CANDLES” and see the instructions for creating a “Three-Line Breakthrough” chart (the number of lines for a breakthrough is three):
Rule 1: if today's price is above the base price (closing the first candle), draw a white line from the base price to the new maximum price (before closing).
or Rule 2: if today's price is below the base price, draw a black line from the base price to the new low of prices (before closing).
Rule 3: if today's price is no different from the base, do not draw any line.
Rule 4: if today's price rises above the maximum of the first line, shift to the column to the right and draw a new white line from the previous maximum to the new maximum of prices.
Rule 5: if the price is below the low of the first line, move one column to the right and draw a new black line down from the previous low to the new low of prices.
Rule 6: if the price is kept in the range of the first line, nothing is applied to the chart.
Rule 7: if the market reaches a new maximum, surpassing the maximum of previous lines, move to the column to the right and draw a new white line up to a new maximum.
Rule 8: if today's price is below the low of previous lines (i.e. there is a new low), move to the right column and draw a new black line down to a new low.
Rule 9: if the price is in the range of the first two lines, nothing is applied to the chart.
Rule 10: if there is a series of three white lines, a new white line is drawn when a new maximum is reached (even if it is only one tick higher than the old one). Under the same conditions, for drawing a black reversal line, the price should fall below the minimum of the series of the last three white lines. Such a black line is called a black reversal line. It runs from the base of the highest white line to a new low of price.
Rule 11: if there is a series of three black lines, a new black line is drawn when a new minimum is reached. Under the same conditions, for drawing a white line, called a white reversal line, the price must exceed the maximum of the previous three black lines. This line is drawn from the top of the lowest black line to a new high of the price.
So, the script was not small, but the idea is extremely simple: if you need to break n lines to build a line, then among these n lines (or less, if this is the beginning of the chart), the maximum or minimum of closures and openings will be searched. If the current candles closed above or below these highs or lows, then a new line is added to the chart on the current candles (trend or breakout). According to my observations, this script draws a chart that is completely identical to the Line Breakout chart built into TradingView, but of course with gaps, as there is time in the candles / bar chart. I stuffed all the logic into a wrapper in the form of the get_linebreak() function, which returns a tuple of OHLC values. And these series with the help of the plotcandle() annotation can be converted to the "Linear Breakthrough" chart. I also want to note that with a large number of candles on the chart, outrages about the buffer size uncertainty are heard from the TradingView black box. Because of this, in the annotation study() set the value to the max_bars_back parameter.
In general, use it (for example, to write strategies)!

Volume Analysis
Detects unusual volume spikes that indicate large players entering
Compares current volume to 20-period average
Institutional trades create volume 2-5x normal levels
Order Flow
Delta: Difference between buying and selling volume
Positive delta = More buying pressure
Negative delta = More selling pressure
Institutions leave "footprints" in order flow
Price Action Patterns
Bullish Rejection Wicks:
| <- Small upper wick
|
███ <- Small body
███
|
|
| <- Large lower wick (rejection)
Indicates institutions bought aggressively at lower prices
Bearish Rejection Wicks:
|
|
| <- Large upper wick (rejection)
|
███ <- Small body
███
| <- Small lower wick
Indicates institutions sold aggressively at higher prices
Liquidity Grabs
Institutions often:
Push price above resistance or below support
Trigger stop losses (grab liquidity)
Reverse direction and trade the other way
Dark Pool Activity
Large block trades executed off-exchange:
High volume with minimal price movement
Indicates institutional accumulation/distribution without moving price
3. Signal Interpretation {#signals}

Previous swing high or resistance
6. Best Practices {#best-practices}
✅ DO's:
1. Use Multiple Timeframes
Check higher timeframe for trend direction
Trade signals that align with higher timeframe
Example: 15m signals in direction of 1H trend
2. Combine with Key Levels
Support/resistance
Supply/demand zones
Previous day high/low
Round numbers (psychological levels)
3. Wait for Confirmation
Don't rush into trades
Let the signal candle close
Watch next candle for follow-through
4. Check the Metrics Table
Look at Relative Volume (should be >2.0)
Check Delta % (should be strong positive/negative)
Verify Order Flow aligns with signal
5. Consider Market Context
News events can override signals
Low liquidity times (lunch, overnight) less reliable
Major economic releases need caution
6. Paper Trade First
Test the indicator for 2-4 weeks
Learn how it behaves on your chosen assets
Develop confidence before using real money
Best Times to Trade:
Stock Market Hours:
9:30-11:30 AM EST (high volume, strong moves)
2:00-4:00 PM EST (institutional positioning)
Avoid: 11:30 AM-2:00 PM (lunch, low volume)
Forex:
London Open: 3:00-6:00 AM EST
New York Open: 8:00-11:00 AM EST
London/NY Overlap: 8:00 AM-12:00 PM EST
Crypto:
24/7 market, but highest volume during US/European hours
Watch for weekend low liquidity
7. Common Mistakes to Avoid {#mistakes}
❌ DON'T:
1. Trade Every Signal
Not all signals are equal
Focus on strength 4-5 signals
Wait for optimal setups
2. Ignore Market Structure
Don't buy into strong downtrends (catch falling knife)
Don't sell into strong uptrends (fight the tape)
Respect major support/resistance
3. Use Too Small Timeframes
1m and 2m charts are too noisy
Minimum recommended: 5m for scalping
Better: 15m, 30m, 1H for reliability
4. Overtrade
Quality over quantity
2-5 good trades per day is excellent
Forcing trades leads to losses
5. Ignore Risk Management
Always use stop losses
Risk only 1-2% per trade
Don't revenge trade after losses
6. Trade During Low Volume
Signals less reliable with low volume
Check Relative Volume metric (should be >1.5)
Avoid pre-market/after-hours for stocks
7. Misread Liquidity Grabs
Not every wick is a liquidity grab
Need volume confirmation
Must have institutional signal
Advanced Tips:
Filtering False Signals:
Use Signal Strength Filter:
Minimum strength 3 = Balanced
Minimum strength 4 = Conservative (recommended)
Minimum strength 5 = Ultra conservative
Confluence Checklist:
Signal strength ≥ 4
Relative volume > 2.0
At key support/resistance
Aligns with higher timeframe trend
Delta % strongly positive/negative
Clean price action setup
If 4+ boxes checked = High probability trade
Setting Up Alerts:
Click the three dots on the indicator
Select "Create Alert"
Choose condition:
"Institutional Buy Signal"
"Institutional Sell Signal"
"Dark Pool Activity"
Set up notification (email, SMS, app)
Save alert
Alert Strategy:
Set minimum strength to 4 for fewer, better alerts
Use for assets you can't watch constantly
Don't rely solely on alerts - check chart context
Practice Exercise:
Week 1-2: Observation
Add indicator to your favorite assets
Watch how signals develop
Note which ones lead to profitable moves
Don't trade yet - just observe
Week 3-4: Paper Trading
Use TradingView's paper trading
Trade only strength 4-5 signals
Record results in a journal
Note: entry, exit, profit/loss, what worked/didn't
Week 5+: Small Live Positions
Start with smallest position size
Trade only your best setups
Gradually increase size as you gain confidence
Keep detailed journal
Quick Reference Card:
Signal Quality Ranking:
🔥 Best Setups (Take These):
Strength 5 + Liquidity grab + Key level
Strength 4-5 + Volume >3.0 + Trend alignment

Volume Profile AnalysisThe Volume Profile Dashboard is a professional-grade analysis tool built for TradingView. It focuses on displaying a comprehensive volume profile breakdown within a dashboard format directly on the chart. The purpose of this tool is to help traders quickly assess buy versus sell volume dynamics, momentum, and sentiment in order to support informed trading decisions.
Instead of plotting simple bars, this indicator uses a detailed table and visual progress bar to summarize live and historical market activity. By condensing key metrics into a structured format, traders can analyse market behaviour without manually calculating or switching between multiple indicators.
________________________________________
How the Script Works
1. Data Gathering
The script uses lower-timeframe price and volume data to calculate buy volume, sell volume, and total traded volume for the current and previous candles.
2. Volume Allocation
Buy and sell volumes are estimated by looking at the candle’s range (high to low) and how the closing price aligns within that range. The closer the close is to the high, the stronger the buying pressure. The closer the close is to the low, the stronger the selling pressure.
3. Delta and Momentum
o Delta measures the difference between buy and sell volume.
o Volume momentum compares the current candle’s activity to the previous one, showing if interest is rising or fading.
4. Point of Control (POC)
An average of high, low, and close is calculated to give an approximate “point of control” level—an area of balance where buyers and sellers previously agreed on price.
5. Dashboard Visualization
All these calculations are displayed inside a clean dashboard table with separate rows for the current candle, previous candle, and a summary row. Icons, colors, and progress bars make it visually intuitive.
6. On-Chart Progress Indicator
A dynamic horizontal progress bar is plotted on the chart above price, showing the balance between buy and sell volume for the latest activity.
7. Alerts
Built-in alerts trigger when strong buying or selling pressure is detected or when there is a significant spike in total traded volume.
________________________________________
How This Tool Can Be Used
• Intraday Trading: Quickly gauge whether buyers or sellers are in control of the market at any moment.
• Swing Trading: Compare momentum shifts between candles to identify early trend reversals.
• Risk Management: Use delta and sentiment signals to confirm whether to hold or reduce exposure.
• Confirmation: Align the volume profile dashboard with other indicators (such as RSI, MACD, or trendlines) for stronger trading conviction.
________________________________________
Using Mixed Indicators for Decisions
This dashboard alone provides volume insights, but better decisions come when it is combined with other tools:
• Pairing it with an RSI can show whether heavy buying is happening in overbought conditions.
• Combining with a SuperTrend or moving averages can confirm if volume momentum aligns with the price trend.
• Overlaying support/resistance levels can identify whether strong buy/sell signals occur at critical levels.
Mixed indicators prevent relying on one signal alone, reducing false trades.
________________________________________
Importance of This Tool
• Clarity: Condenses complex volume data into a simple, visual format.
• Speed: Traders can react faster with pre-calculated buy/sell percentages.
• Precision: Highlights hidden imbalances that are not obvious from candles alone.
• Professional-grade dashboard: Offers an institutional-style view of market behavior directly within TradingView.
________________________________________
Parameters in the Dashboard Table
• Period: Shows whether the row is for the current or previous candle, along with trend arrows.
• Price Range: The high–low range of the candle.
• Total Volume: The sum of buy and sell activity.
• Buy Volume / Sell Volume: Separated distribution of transactions leaning bullish or bearish.
• Delta: The net difference between buy and sell volumes, highlighting pressure imbalance.
• Buy % / Sell %: The percentage contribution of each side to total volume.
• POC: An average reference level where market consensus was strongest.
• Progress: A graphical bar showing buy vs sell dominance.
• Signal: Simplified output like Strong Buy, Buy, Strong Sell, Sell, Neutral.
• Summary Row: Compares changes between the current and previous candles and gives overall market sentiment.

Cycle Phase & ETA Tracker [Robust v4]
Cycle Phase & ETA Tracker
Description
The Cycle Phase & ETA Tracker is a powerful tool for analyzing market cycles and predicting the completion of the current cycle (Estimated Time of Arrival, or ETA). It visualizes the cycle phase (0–100%) using a smoothed signal and displays the forecasted completion date with an optional confidence band based on cycle length variability. Ideal for traders looking to time their trades based on cyclical patterns, this indicator offers flexible settings for robust cycle analysis.
Key Features
Cycle Phase Visualization: Tracks the current cycle phase (0–100%) with color-coded zones: green (0–33%), blue (33–66%), orange (66–100%).
ETA Forecast: Shows a vertical line and label indicating the estimated date of cycle completion.
Confidence Band (±σ): Displays a band around the ETA to reflect uncertainty, calculated using the standard deviation of cycle lengths.
Multiple Averaging Methods: Choose from three methods to calculate average cycle length:
Median (Robust): Uses the median for resilience against outliers.
Weighted Mean: Prioritizes recent cycles with linear or quadratic weights.
Simple Mean: Applies equal weights to all cycles.
Adaptive Cycle Length: Automatically adjusts cycle length based on the timeframe or allows a fixed length.
Debug Histogram: Optionally displays the smoothed signal for diagnostic purposes.
Setup and Usage
Add the Indicator:
Search for "Cycle Phase & ETA Tracker " in TradingView’s indicator library and apply it to your chart.
Configure Parameters:
Core Settings:
Track Last N Cycles: Sets the number of recent cycles used to calculate the average cycle length (default: 20). Higher values provide stability but may lag market shifts.
Source: Selects the data source for analysis (e.g., close, open, high; default: close price).
Use Adaptive Cycle Length?: Enables automatic cycle length adjustment based on timeframe (e.g., shorter for intraday, longer for daily) or uses a fixed length if disabled.
Fixed Cycle Length: Defines the cycle length in bars when adaptive mode is off (default: 14). Smaller values increase sensitivity to short-term cycles.
Show Debug Histogram: Enables a histogram of the smoothed signal for debugging signal behavior.
Cycle Length Estimation:
Average Mode: Selects the method for calculating average cycle length: "Median (Robust)", "Weighted Mean", or "Simple Mean".
Weights (for Weighted Mean): For "Weighted Mean", chooses "linear" (moderate emphasis on recent cycles) or "quadratic" (strong emphasis on recent cycles).
ETA Visualization:
Show ETA Line & Label: Toggles the display of the ETA line and date label.
Show ETA Confidence Band (±σ): Toggles the confidence band around the ETA, showing the uncertainty range.
Band Transparency: Adjusts the transparency of the confidence band (0 = fully transparent, 100 = fully opaque; default: 85).
ETA Color: Sets the color for the ETA line, label, and confidence band (default: orange).
Interpretation:
The cycle phase (0–100%) indicates progress: green for the start, blue for the middle, and orange for the end of the cycle.
The ETA line and label show the predicted cycle completion date.
The confidence band reflects the uncertainty range (±1 standard deviation) of the ETA.
If a warning "Insufficient cycles for ETA" appears, wait for the indicator to collect at least 3 cycles.
Limitations
Requires at least 3 cycles for reliable ETA and confidence band calculations.
On low timeframes or low-volatility markets, zero-crossings may be infrequent, delaying ETA updates.
Accuracy depends on proper cycle length settings (adaptive or fixed).
Notes
Test the indicator across different assets and timeframes to optimize settings.
Use the debug histogram to troubleshoot if the ETA appears inaccurate.

Cycle Phase & ETA Tracker
Описание
Индикатор Cycle Phase & ETA Tracker предназначен для анализа рыночных циклов и прогнозирования времени завершения текущего цикла (ETA — Estimated Time of Arrival). Он отслеживает фазы цикла (0–100%) на основе сглаженного сигнала и отображает предполагаемую дату завершения цикла с опциональной доверительной полосой, основанной на стандартном отклонении длин циклов. Индикатор идеально подходит для трейдеров, которые хотят выявлять циклические закономерности и планировать свои действия на основе прогнозируемого времени.
Ключевые особенности
Фазы цикла: Визуализирует текущую фазу цикла (0–100%) с цветовой кодировкой: зеленый (0–33%), синий (33–66%), оранжевый (66–100%).
Прогноз ETA: Показывает вертикальную линию и метку с предполагаемой датой завершения цикла.
Доверительная полоса (±σ): Отображает зону неопределенности вокруг ETA, основанную на стандартном отклонении длин циклов.
Гибкие методы усреднения: Поддерживает три метода расчета средней длины цикла:
Median (Robust): Медиана, устойчивая к выбросам.
Weighted Mean: Взвешенное среднее, где недавние циклы имеют больший вес (линейный или квадратичный).
Simple Mean: Простое среднее с равными весами.
Адаптивная длина цикла: Автоматически подстраивает длину цикла под таймфрейм или позволяет задать фиксированную длину.
Отладочная гистограмма: Опционально отображает сглаженный сигнал для анализа.
Настройка и использование
Добавьте индикатор:
Найдите "Cycle Phase & ETA Tracker " в библиотеке индикаторов TradingView и добавьте его на график.
Настройте параметры:
Core Settings:
Track Last N Cycles: Количество последних циклов для расчета средней длины (по умолчанию 20). Большие значения дают более стабильные результаты, но могут запаздывать.
Source: Источник данных (по умолчанию цена закрытия).
Use Adaptive Cycle Length?: Включите для автоматической настройки длины цикла по таймфрейму или отключите для использования фиксированной длины.
Fixed Cycle Length: Длина цикла в барах, если адаптивная длина отключена (по умолчанию 14).
Show Debug Histogram: Включите для отображения сглаженного сигнала (полезно для отладки).
Cycle Length Estimation:
Average Mode: Выберите метод усреднения: "Median (Robust)", "Weighted Mean" или "Simple Mean".
Weights (for Weighted Mean): Для режима "Weighted Mean" выберите "linear" (умеренный вес для новых циклов) или "quadratic" (сильный вес для новых циклов).
ETA Visualization:
Show ETA Line & Label: Включите для отображения линии и метки ETA.
Show ETA Confidence Band (±σ): Включите для отображения доверительной полосы.
Band Transparency: Прозрачность полосы (0 — полностью прозрачная, 100 — полностью непрозрачная, по умолчанию 85).
ETA Color: Цвет для линии, метки и полосы (по умолчанию оранжевый).
Интерпретация:
Фаза цикла (0–100%) показывает прогресс текущего цикла: зеленый — начало, синий — середина, оранжевый — конец.
Линия и метка ETA указывают предполагаемую дату завершения цикла.
Доверительная полоса показывает диапазон неопределенности (±1 стандартное отклонение).
Если отображается предупреждение "Insufficient cycles for ETA", дождитесь, пока индикатор соберет минимум 3 цикла.
Ограничения
Требуется минимум 3 цикла для надежного расчета ETA и доверительной полосы.
На низких таймфреймах или рынках с низкой волатильностью пересечения нуля могут быть редкими, что замедляет обновление ETA.
Эффективность зависит от правильной настройки длины цикла (fixedL или адаптивной).
Примечания
Протестируйте индикатор на разных таймфреймах и активах, чтобы подобрать оптимальные параметры.
Используйте отладочную гистограмму для анализа сигнала, если ETA кажется неточным.
