Options Strategy V1.3📈 Options Strategy V1.3 — EMA Crossover + RSI + ATR + Opening Range
Overview:
This strategy is designed for short-term directional trades on large-cap stocks or ETFs, especially when trading options. It combines classic trend-following signals with momentum confirmation, volatility-based risk management, and session timing filters to help identify high-probability entries with predefined stop-loss and profit targets.
🔍 Strategy Components:
EMA Crossover (Fast/Slow)
Entry signals are triggered by the crossover of a short EMA above or below a long EMA — a traditional trend-following method to detect shifts in momentum.
RSI Filter
RSI confirms the signal by avoiding entries in overbought/oversold zones unless certain momentum conditions are met.
Long entry requires RSI ≥ Long Threshold
Short entry requires RSI ≤ Short Threshold
ATR-Based SL & TP
Stop-loss is set dynamically as a multiple of ATR below (long) or above (short) the entry price.
Take-profit is placed as a ratio (TP/SL) of the stop distance, ensuring consistent reward/risk structure.
Opening Range Filter (Optional)
If enabled, the strategy only triggers trades after price breaks out of the 09:30–09:45 EST range, ensuring participation in directional moves.
Session Filters
No trades from 04:00 to 09:30 and from 16:00 to 20:00 EST, avoiding low-liquidity periods.
All open trades are closed at 15:55 EST, to avoid overnight risk or expiration issues for options.
⚙️ Built-in Presets:

Mongoose Conflict Risk Radar v1.1 (Separate Panel) description
The Mongoose Capital: Risk Rotation Index is a macro market sentiment tool designed to detect elevated risk conditions by aggregating signals across key asset classes.
This script evaluates trend strength across 8 ETFs representing major risk-on and risk-off flows:
GLD – Gold
VIXY – Volatility
TLT – Long-Term Bonds
SPY – S&P 500
UUP – U.S. Dollar Index
EEM – Emerging Markets
SLV – Silver
FXI – China Large-Cap
Each asset is assigned a binary signal based on price position vs. its 21-period SMA (or a crossover for bonds). The signals are then totaled into a composite Risk Rotation Score, plotted as a bar graph.
How to Use
0–2 = Low risk-on behavior
3–4 = Caution / Mixed regime
5–8 = Elevated conflict or macro stress
Use this as a macro confirmation layer for trend entries, risk reduction, or allocation shifts.
Alerts
Set alerts when the index exceeds 5 to track major rotations into defensive assets.
Out of the Noise Intraday Strategy with VWAP [YuL]This is my (naive) implementation of "Beat the Market An Effective Intraday Momentum Strategy for S&P500 ETF (SPY)" paper by Carlo Zarattini, Andrew Aziz, Andrea Barbon, so the credit goes to them.
It is supposed to run on SPY on 30-minute timeframe, there may be issues on other timeframes.
I've used settings that were used by the authors in the original paper to keep it close to the publication, but I understand that they are very aggressive and probably shouldn't be used like that.
Results are good, but not as good as they are stated in the paper (unsurprisingly?): returns are smaller and Sharpe is very low (which is actually weird given the returns and drawdown ratio), there are also margin calls if you enable margin check (and you should).
I have my own ideas of improvements which I will probably implement separately to keep this clean.

Sector Relative StrengthDescription
This script compares sector performance relative to the S&P 500. Sector price levels or charts alone can mislead, because they tend to move with the broader market. An increase in a sector’s price does not necessarily indicate strength, as it may simply be following the index.
For more a more reliable picture, the script calculates a ratio between each sector ETF and SPY. If the ratio has increased, the sector has outperformed the index. In case it has declined, the sector has underperformed. If the value is near zero, the sector has moved in line with the index. The sectors are presented in a table and sorted on relative performance.
Calculation Method
The performance is expressed as a percentage change in the ratio over a user-defined lookback period. The default lookback is set to 21 bars, which corresponds to one month on a daily chart. This value can be adopted in the settings to match preferred time period.
Z-Score
In addition to the percentage change, the script calculates a Z-score of the ratio, which measures how far the current value deviates from its recent mean. A high positive Z-score indicates that the ratio is significantly above its average, while a negative value indicates it is below. This normalization allows for comparison between sectors with different price levels or volatility profiles.
Table Columns
- Relative %: The sector's performance relative to SPY over the selected lookback period
- Z-Score: Standardized measure of current performance ratio is relative to its average
- Trend Arrow: Indicates the direction of relative performance up down or flat
Example Interpretation
For example, if XLK shows a 3.7% change, it has outperformed SPY over the selected period. Another sector might show a -2.1% change, which indicates underperformance. While both values shows relative strength or weakness, the Z-score is optional and can provide additional context based on how unusual that performance is compared to the sector's own recent behavior.
Use Case
This approach helps evaluate overall market conditions and supports a top-down method. By starting with sector performance, it becomes easier to identify where the market is showing leadership or weakness. This allows the stock selection process to be more deliberate and can help refine or customize screeners based on certain sectors.
SPY Trend-Based Buy Signals🔹 Overview
This indicator identifies potential buy signals on any asset by combining MACD and Stochastic Oscillator crossovers, while using the SPY’s trend (via exponential moving averages) as a broader market filter.
It helps traders stay aligned with macro momentum and avoid counter-trend entries.
🔍 How it works
SPY Trend Filter (Daily Timeframe):
Pulls SPY (S&P 500 ETF) data using EMAs (5, 20, 80)
Categorizes SPY market trend with color codes:
🟢 Green: Strong uptrend (EMA5 > EMA20 > EMA80)
🟡 Yellow: Potential uptrend / early momentum (EMA5 < EMA20 > EMA80)
🔴 Red: Downtrend (EMA5 < EMA20 < EMA80)
🔵 Blue: Possible trend reversal or mixed trend (EMA5 > EMA20 < EMA80)
Buy Signal Conditions (Combined Logic):
A signal is only triggered when:
- SPY trend is either yellow or blue (indicating a neutral-to-bullish or early recovery environment)
-The Stochastic Oscillator's %D line is below 50, showing possible upside
- A bullish MACD crossover occurs on the current symbol
🟢 Green signal: MACD crossover occurs below 0 (early reversal)
🟠 Orange signal: MACD crossover occurs above 0 (momentum continuation)
📈 Visual Output
🟢 Green label below the bar when an early reversal setup occurs
🟠 Orange label above the bar when a trend continuation signal appears
✅ Best Use Case
Ideal for:
Swing traders and position traders
LEAPS (long-term options) traders aligning entries with SPY trend
Anyone seeking clean, contextual entries filtered by market momentum
⚠️ Note: This indicator is most effective when used on fundamentally strong stocks that are sector leaders with solid earnings growth and market presence. Use technical signals as a complement to quality fundamentals.
ℹ️ Clarification: The moving averages displayed on the chart (e.g., on QQQ) are for visual reference only, to help users understand the color logic of the SPY trend filter. The actual logic and signals are based on SPY’s moving averages, regardless of the charted symbol.

Bottom and Top finder [theUltimator5]🧭 Bottom and Top Finder — Multi-Symbol Momentum Divergence Detector
The Bottom and Top Finder by theUltimator5 is a highly configurable, momentum-based indicator designed to identify potential market reversal points using a multi-symbol relative strength comparison framework. It evaluates Directional Movement Index (DMI) values from up to three correlated or macro-influential assets to determine when the current instrument may be approaching a bottom (oversold exhaustion) or a top (overbought exhaustion).
🧠 How It Works
This script computes both the +DI (positive directional index) and -DI (negative directional index) for:
The currently selected chart symbol
Up to three user-defined reference symbols (e.g., sector leaders, macro ETFs, currencies, volatility proxies)
It uses a logarithmic percent-change approach to normalize all movement metrics, ensuring results are scale-invariant and price-neutral — meaning it works consistently whether a stock trades at $1 or $100,000. This makes the comparison between different assets meaningful, even if they trade on different scales or volatility levels.
The indicator then:
Compares the +DI values of the reference symbols to the current symbol’s +DI → seeking bottoming signals (suggesting the current symbol is unusually weak).
Compares the -DI values of the reference symbols to the current symbol’s -DI → seeking topping signals (suggesting the current symbol is unusually strong on the downside).
These comparisons are aggregated using a weighted average, where you control the influence (multiplier) of each reference symbol.
🔁 Trigger Logic
The indicator generates two dynamic lines:
Bot Line (Bottom Line): Based on reference +DI vs. current +DI
Top Line: Based on reference -DI vs. current -DI
If the Bot Line rises above the user-defined threshold, it may signal that capitulation or oversold conditions are developing. Similarly, if the Top Line rises above its threshold, it may indicate a blow-off top or overbought selling pressure.
To avoid false positives, a second smoothing-based condition must also be met:
The line must significantly exceed its moving average, confirming momentum divergence.
When both conditions are true, the indicator highlights the background in light red (bottom alert) or green (top alert) for easy visual scanning.
🔧 Key Inputs & Customization
You can fine-tune this tool using the following parameters:
Smoothing Length: Controls how smooth or sensitive the DI values are.
Reference Symbols: Up to 3 assets (default: RSP, HYG, DXY) — customizable for sector, macro, or inverse relationships.
Influence Multipliers: Adjust the weight each symbol has on the overall signal.
Display Options:
Toggle to highlight the chart background during trigger conditions.
Toggle to display a real-time table of reference symbols and their influence levels.
📈 Visual Output
Two plotted lines: One for bottoms and one for tops
Dynamically colored based on how far they exceed thresholds
Background highlights to mark trigger zones
Optional table displaying the current reference symbol setup and weights
🛠 Best Use Cases
This tool is ideal for:
Identifying short-term tops or bottoms using momentum exhaustion
Spotting divergences between an asset and broader market or sector health
Macro analysis with assets like SPY, QQQ, GME, MSFT, BTC, etc...
Pair trading signals or market breadth confirmation/disagreement
It complements other technical indicators like RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, or price structure patterns (double bottoms/tops, etc.)
HBND ReferenceChart the HBND as an index based on weighting found on the HBND Etf website. For best results display the adjusted close since HBND is a high yielding fund. The weightings have to be updated manually.
There are three display options:
1. Normalize the index relative to the symbol on the chart (presumably HBND) and this is the default.
2. Percentage change relative to the first bar of the index
3. The raw value which will be the tlt price * tlt percentage weighting + vglt price * vglt percentage weighting + edv percentage weighting * edv price.
[SHORT ONLY] Internal Bar Strength (IBS) Mean Reversion Strategy█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "Internal Bar Strength (IBS) Strategy" is a mean-reversion strategy designed to identify trading opportunities based on the closing price's position within the daily price range. It enters a short position when the IBS indicates overbought conditions and exits when the IBS reaches oversold levels. This strategy is Short-Only and was designed to be used on the Daily timeframe for Stocks and ETFs.
█ WHAT IS INTERNAL BAR STRENGTH (IBS)?
Internal Bar Strength (IBS) measures where the closing price falls within the high-low range of a bar. It is calculated as:
IBS = (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
- Low IBS (≤ 0.2) : Indicates the close is near the bar's low, suggesting oversold conditions.
- High IBS (≥ 0.8) : Indicates the close is near the bar's high, suggesting overbought conditions.
█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. SHORT ENTRY
A Short Signal is triggered when:
The IBS value rises to or above the Upper Threshold (default: 0.9).
The Closing price is greater than the previous bars High (close>high ).
The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
2. EXIT CONDITION
An exit Signal is generated when the IBS value drops to or below the Lower Threshold (default: 0.3). This prompts the strategy to exit the position.
█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Upper Threshold: The IBS level at which the strategy enters trades. Default is 0.9.
Lower Threshold: The IBS level at which the strategy exits short positions. Default is 0.3.
Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
This strategy is designed for Stocks and ETFs markets and performs best when prices frequently revert to the mean.
The strategy can be optimized further using additional conditions such as using volume or volatility filters.
It is sensitive to extreme IBS values, which help identify potential reversals.
Backtesting results should be analyzed to optimize the Upper/Lower Thresholds for specific instruments and market conditions.
IronCondor 10am 30TF by RMThe IronCondor 10am 30TF indicator shows Iron Condor trades win rate over a large number of days.
The default ETFs in this indicators are "QQQ", "SPY", "RUT" , "CBTX" and "SPX", other entries have not been tested.
Iron Condor quick explanation:
- Iron Condors trades have four options, generally, are based around a Midpoint price (Current Market Price Strike) and
- Two equally distances Strikes for the SELL components (called the Body of the Iron Condor)
- Further away from the two SELLs, another Two BUYs for protection (not considered in this indicator)
- Iron Condors are used for Passive Income based on small gains most of the time.
The IronCondor 10am 30TF has its logic created based on the premises that:
- Most days the market prices stay within a range.
- As example the S&P market prices would stay within 1% on about 80% of the time
- The moving markets (bullish or bearish) occur about 20% of the time
- The biggest market price volatility generally occurs before market opens and then around the first hour or so of trade in the day.
- After the first hour or so of the market the prices would be most likely to stay within a range.
The operation is simple:
- At the Trade Star time in the day (say 10:30 Hrs.) draws a vertical yellow line, then
- Creates two blue horizontal lines for the SELL limits in the Iron Condor Body, at +/- 1% price boundary (check Ticker list below for values)
- At the Trade End time (say 16:00 Hrs.) checks that none of the SELL limits have been broken by highs or lows during the trade day
(The check is done calculating at Trade End time the high/lows 10 bars back for 30 min TF - timeframe)
- There is a label at each Trade End time with Win/Loss and Body value.
- There is one final label with overall calculated past performance in Win percentage out of 'n' trades
Defaults and User Entries:
- The User can modify the Midpoint price called 'IronCondor Midpoint STRIKE' (default is the Candle Close at the selected time)
- The User can modify the Body value called 'IronCondor Body' (default is the Ticker's selected value as per list below)
"QQQ" or "SPY" Body = 5
"RUT" or "CBTX" Body = 20
"SPX" Body = 60

Sharpe and Sortino Ratios with Date RangeThis indicator calculates the Sharpe and Sortino ratios using a chart symbol's periodic price returns.
I added the ability to calculate SORTINO and Sharpe based on CUSTOM DATES within the option menu.
It builds on the script here: by adding this feature.
A little about the Sortino Ratio.
www.nasdaq.com
I want equity market returns, but I don’t want equity market volatility. This is the sentiment many investors naturally feel. This sentiment often grows stronger as one approaches or is in the phase where they desire distributions from their savings to improve lifestyle. This is why there is a need for active management in the investment arena. The desire to control downside volatility, but also participate in the upside growth is a very fundamental human desire. The Sortino Ratio measures how well a particular investment meets this fundamental human desire.
There is the old adage, “volatility is the price you pay for returns.” However, what if we could measure the historical performance of an investment and see if it has given above average returns compared to the downside volatility. This is a simple division problem. It will tell us if the volatility “price we are paying for returns” is good. We can then compare that to other investments to see how they compare.
Let us take the return and subtract the risk-free interest rate and then simply divide that by the downside movement from the average. A basic division problem yielding a number that measures a very basic human desire: How well did this investment do compared to the downside risk it experienced.
In the world of financial analysis and investment management, ratios are abundant. There are many ratios that are truly important to a particular analysis. However, the sheer abundance of ratios that are available often overwhelms the casual investor, leading them to disregard ratios altogether. I would argue for those investors that desire a way to rank an investment by its ability to satisfy this very fundamental human desire, the Sortino Ratio is the number they need to consider.
Disappointing in the marketplace for research, the Sortino Ratio is not featured prominently. It is much easier to find the inflows a particular ETF has experienced than the Sortino Ratio. Inflows are important. They measure how much people are investing into an ETF. However, they are mostly only important to the fund manager, not the investor. What investors care about is the Risk-Adjusted Return. This is the Sortino Ratio.
FACTOR MONITORThe Factor Monitor is a comprehensive designed to track relative strength and standard deviation movements across multiple market segments and investment factors. The indicator calculates and displays normalized percentage moves and their statistical significance (measured in standard deviations) across daily, 5-day, and 20-day periods, providing a multi-timeframe view of market dynamics.
Key Features:
Real-time tracking of relative performance between various ETF pairs (e.g., QQQ vs SPY, IWM vs SPY)
Standard deviation scoring system that identifies statistically significant moves
Color-coded visualization (green/red) for quick interpretation of relative strength
Multiple timeframe analysis (1-day, 5-day, and 20-day moves)
Monitoring of key market segments:
Style factors (Value, Growth, Momentum)
Market cap segments (Large, Mid, Small)
Sector relative strength
Risk factors (High Beta vs Low Volatility)
Credit conditions (High Yield vs Investment Grade)
The tool is particularly valuable for:
Identifying significant factor rotations in the market
Assessing market breadth through relative strength comparisons
Spotting potential trend changes through statistical deviation analysis
Monitoring sector leadership and market regime shifts
Quantifying the magnitude of market moves relative to historical norms
Composer Strategy 1 (Haggis Levered)This strategy dynamically selects an asset to trade each day based on a set of predefined market conditions and technical indicators. It uses relative strength index (RSI) and moving averages to evaluate momentum and trends across multiple tickers, aiming to identify the most advantageous asset for the current market environment. By switching between leveraged ETFs, inverse funds, and defensive assets, the strategy seeks to capitalize on both bullish and bearish scenarios while mitigating risk during uncertain periods.
The approach emphasizes adaptability by monitoring key metrics like overbought or oversold signals and comparing cumulative returns and relative performance across asset classes. This flexibility allows the strategy to respond to changing market dynamics daily, aligning with short-term trends while maintaining a systematic and disciplined methodology for asset allocation.

Global Market Strength IndicatorThe Global Market Strength Indicator is a powerful tool for traders and investors. It helps compare the strength of various global markets and indices. This indicator uses the True Strength Index (TSI) to measure market strength.
The indicator retrieves price data for different markets and calculates their TSI values. These values are then plotted on a chart. Each market is represented by a different colored line, making it easy to distinguish between them.
One of the main benefits of this indicator is its comprehensive global view. It covers major indices and country-specific ETFs, giving users a broad perspective on global market trends. This wide coverage allows for easy comparison between different markets and regions.
The indicator is highly customizable. Users can adjust the TSI smoothing period to suit their preferences. They can also toggle the visibility of individual markets. This feature helps reduce chart clutter and allows for more focused analysis.
To use the indicator, apply it to your chart in TradingView. Adjust the settings as needed, and observe the relative positions and movements of the TSI lines. Lines moving higher indicate increasing strength in that market, while lines moving lower suggest weakening markets.
The chart includes reference lines at 0.5 and -0.5. These help identify potential overbought and oversold conditions. Markets with TSI values above 0.5 may be considered strong or potentially overbought. Those below -0.5 may be weak or potentially oversold.
By comparing the movements of different markets, users can identify which markets are leading or lagging. They can also spot potential divergences between related markets. This information can be valuable for identifying sector rotations or shifts in global market sentiment.
A dynamic legend automatically updates to show only the visible markets. This feature improves chart readability and makes it easier to interpret the data.
The Global Market Strength Indicator is a versatile tool that provides valuable insights into global market performance. It helps traders and investors identify trends, compare market performances, and make more informed decisions. Whether you're looking to spot emerging global trends or identify potential trading opportunities, this indicator offers a comprehensive solution for global market analysis.

By using the 'Daily MAs on Intraday Charts' the trader can now have a multi-chart layout and be easily aware of key price levels from daily moving averages when looking at various intraday timeframe charts such as the 1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 1-hour etc. This can be essential information for opening long and short trading ideas.
Trade Entry Detector, Wick to Body Ratio Trade Entry Detector: Wick-to-Body Ratio Strategy with Bollinger Bands
Overview
The Trade Entry Detector is a custom strategy for TradingView that leverages the Bollinger Bands and a unique wick-to-body ratio approach to capture precise entry opportunities. This indicator is designed for traders who want to pinpoint high-probability reversal points when price interacts with Bollinger Bands, all while offering flexible entry fill options.
The strategy performs primary analysis on the daily time frame, regardless of your current chart setting, allowing you to view daily Bollinger Band levels and entry signals even on lower time frames. This approach is suitable for swing traders and short-term traders looking to align intraday moves with higher time frame signals.
How the Strategy Works
1. Bollinger Band Analysis on the Daily Time Frame
Bollinger Bands are calculated using a 20-period simple moving average (SMA) and a standard deviation multiplier (default is 2). These bands dynamically expand and contract based on market volatility, making them ideal for identifying overbought and oversold conditions:
* Upper Band: Indicates potential overbought levels.
* Lower Band: Indicates potential oversold levels.
2. Wick-to-Body Ratio Condition
This strategy places significant emphasis on candle wicks relative to the candle body. Here’s why:
* A large upper wick relative to the body signals potential selling pressure after testing the upper Bollinger Band.
* A large lower wick relative to the body indicates buying support after testing the lower Bollinger Band.
* Ratio Threshold: You can set a minimum wick-to-body ratio (default is 1.0), meaning that the wick must be at least equal in size to the body. This ensures only candles with significant reversals are considered for entry.
3. Flexible Entry Timing
To adapt to various trading styles, the indicator allows you to choose the entry fill timing:
* Daily Close: Enter at the close of the daily candle.
* Daily Open: Enter at the open of the following daily candle.
* HOD (High of Day): Set entry at the daily high, for those who want confirmation of upward momentum.
* LOD (Low of Day): Set entry at the daily low, ideal for confirming downward movement.
4. Position Sizing and Risk Management
The strategy calculates position size based on a fixed risk percentage of your account balance (default is 1%). This approach dynamically adjusts position sizes based on stop-loss distance:
* Stop Loss: Placed at the nearest swing high (for shorts) or swing low (for longs).
* Take Profit: Exits are triggered when the price reaches the opposite Bollinger Band.
5. Order Expiration
Each pending order (long or short) expires after two days if unfilled, allowing for new setups on subsequent candles if conditions are met again.
Using the Trade Entry Detector
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Set the Primary Time Frame
The core calculations run on the daily time frame, but the strategy can be applied to intraday charts (e.g., 65-minute or 15-minute) for deeper insights.
2. Adjust Bollinger Band Settings
* Length: Default is 20, which determines the period for calculating the moving average.
* Standard Deviation Multiplier: Default is 2.0, which sets the width of the bands. Adjusting this can help you capture broader or tighter volatility ranges.
3. Define the Wick-to-Body Ratio
Set the minimum ratio between wick and body (default 1.0). Higher values filter out candles with less wick-to-body contrast, focusing on stronger rejection moves.
4. Choose Entry Fill Timing
Select your preferred fill condition:
* Daily Close: Confirms the trade at the end of the daily session.
* Daily Open: Executes the entry at the open of the next day.
* HOD/LOD: Uses the daily high or low as an additional confirmation for upward or downward moves.
5. Position Sizing and Risk Management
* Set your account balance and risk percentage. The strategy automatically calculates position sizes based on the stop distance to manage risk efficiently.
* Stop Loss and Take Profit points are automatically set based on swing highs/lows and opposing Bollinger Bands, respectively.
Practical Example
Let’s say SPY (S&P 500 ETF) tests the lower Bollinger Band on the daily time frame, with a lower wick that is twice the size of the body (meeting the 1.0 ratio threshold). Here’s how the strategy might proceed:
1. Signal: The lower wick on SPY suggests buying interest at the lower Bollinger Band.
2. Entry Fill Timing: If you’ve selected "Daily Open," the entry order will be placed at the next day's open price.
3. Stop Loss: Positioned at the nearest daily swing low to minimize risk.
4. Take Profit: If SPY price moves up and reaches the upper Bollinger Band, the position is automatically closed.

Buffett Valuation Indicator [TradeDots]The Buffett Valuation Indicator (also known as the Buffett Index or Buffett Ratio) measures the ratio of the total United States stock market to GDP.
This indicator helps determine whether the valuation changes in US stocks are justified by the GDP level.
For example, the ratio is calculated based on the standard deviations from the historical trend line. If the value exceeds +2 standard deviations, it suggests that the stock market is overvalued relative to GDP, and vice versa.
This "Buffett Valuation Indicator" is an enhanced version of the original indicator. It applies a Bollinger Band over the Valuation/GDP ratio to identify overvaluation and undervaluation across different timeframes, making it efficient for use in smaller timeframes, e.g. daily or even hourly intervals.
HOW DOES IT WORK
The Buffett Valuation Indicator measures the ratio between US stock valuation and US GDP, evaluating whether stock valuations are overvalued or undervalued in GDP terms.
In this version, the total valuation of the US stock market is represented by considering the top 10 market capitalization stocks.
Users can customize this list to include other stocks for a more balanced valuation ratio. Alternatively, users may use S&P 500 ETFs, such as SPY or VOO, as inputs.
The ratio is plotted as a line chart in a separate panel below the main chart. A Bollinger Band with a default 100-period and multiples of 1 and 2 is used to identify overvaluation and undervaluation.
For instance, if the ratio line moves above the +2 standard deviation line, it indicates that stocks are overvalued, signaling a potential selling opportunity.
APPLICATION
When the indicator is applied to a chart, we observe the ratio line's movements relative to the standard deviation lines. The further the line deviates from the standard deviation lines, the more extreme the overvaluation or undervaluation.
We look for buying opportunities when the Buffett Index moves below the first and second standard deviation lines and sell opportunities when it moves above these lines. This indicator is used as a microeconomic confirmation tool, in combination with other indicators, to achieve higher win-rate setups.

Concretum BandsDefinition
The Concretum Bands indicator recreates the Upper and Lower Bound of the Noise Area described in the paper "Beat the Market: An Effective Intraday Momentum Strategy for S&P500 ETF (SPY)" published by Concretum founder Zarattini, along with Barbon and Aziz, in May 2024.
Below we provide all the information required to understand how the indicator is calculated, the rationale behind it and how people can use it.
Idea Behind
The indicator aims to outline an intraday price region where the stock is expected to move without indicating any demand/supply imbalance. When the price crosses the boundaries of the Noise Area, it suggests a significant imbalance that may trigger an intraday trend.
How the Indicator is Calculated
The bands at time HH:MM are computed by taking the open price of day t and then adding/subtracting the average absolute move over the last n days from market open to minute HH:MM . The bands are also adjusted to account for overnight gaps. A volatility multiplier can be used to increase/decrease the width of the bands, similar to other well-known technical bands. The bands described in the paper were computed using a lookback period (length) of 14 days and a Volatility Multiplier of 1. Users can easily adjust these settings.
How to use the indicator
A trader may use this indicator to identify intraday moves that exceed the average move over the most recent period. A break outside the bands could be used as a signal of significant demand/supply imbalance.
Index investingThe Index Investing indicator simplifies decision-making for adding to Index ETF's Long-term investments. By utilizing a percentage discount methodology, it highlights potential opportunities to enhance portfolios. This straightforward tool aids in identifying favorable moments to invest based on calculated price discounts from selected reference points, making the process more systematic and less subjective.
🔶 SETTINGS
Reference Price: Choose between 'All-Time-High' or 'Start of the Year' as the basis for calculating discount levels. This allows for flexibility in strategy depending on market conditions or investment philosophy.
Discount 1 %, Discount 2 %, Discount 3 %: These inputs define the percentage below the reference price at which buy signals are generated. They represent strategic entry points at discounted prices.
🔶 Default Parameters
The default parameters of 4.13%, 8.26%, and 12.39% for the discount levels are chosen based on the average 5-year return of the NSE:NIFTY Index, which stands at approximately 12.39%. By dividing this return into three parts, we obtain a structured approach to capturing potential upside at varying levels of market retracement, providing a logical basis for the selected default values.
Users have the flexibility to modify these parameters, tailoring the indicator to fit their unique approach and market outlook.
🔶 How Levels Are Calculated
Discount levels are calculated using the formula: Discount Price = Reference Price * (1 - Discount %) . This succinct approach establishes specific entry points below the chosen reference, such as an all-time high or the year's start price.
🔶 How Are the Buy Labels Generated
Buy signals are generated when the market price(Low of the candle) crosses under any of the defined discount levels. Each level has a corresponding buy label ('Buy 1', 'Buy 2', 'Buy 3'), which is activated upon the price crossing below the specified discount level and is only reset at the beginning of a new year or upon reaching a new reference high, ensuring signals are not repetitive for the same price level.
🔶 Other Features
Alerts: The indicator provides alerts for each buy signal, notifying potential entry points at their defined discount levels. The alert triggers only once per candle.
Year Marker: A vertical line with an accompanying label marks the start of each trading year on the chart. This feature aids in visualizing the temporal context of buy signals and reference price adjustments.
