DSI - Depth Strength IndexDescription:
The DSI consists of three primary components:
Mid-Term Line (MTL): Captures medium-term price movements over a 50-candle period, optimized for swift response to trend changes.
Long-Term Line (LTL): Analyzes price extremes over a longer period of 500 candles, providing a comprehensive view of long-term trends and stabilizing signals by filtering out short-term fluctuations.
Volume-adjusted RSI: Enhances the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) by incorporating volume data, improving the detection of bullish and bearish divergences.
Functioning:
MTL: Utilizes price extremes over 50 candles to identify medium-term trends.
LTL: Analyzes price extremes over 500 candles to identify long-term trends and stabilize signals.
Volume-adjusted RSI: Incorporates volume data to provide more accurate signals of market forces.
Application of MA: The MTL and LTL are recalculated using Moving Average to enhance signal clarity and reduce lag.
Advantages:
Increased Responsiveness and Precision: Adapts to various market conditions and enhances signal relevance for different trading strategies.
Noise Reduction: The application of MA helps clarify market trends, reducing false signals.
Visual Usage Guide:
Accelerating Trend: MTL crossing above LTL indicates increased momentum in the trend.
Trend Weakening: MTL crossing below LTL suggests the current trend is losing strength.
Reversal Trade Opportunity: MTL trending while LTL remains flat indicates potential for reversal, suggesting MTL may align with LTL soon.
Volatile Sideways Market: Conflicting directions between MTL and LTL signal a volatile, sideways market.

Price Prediction With Rolling Volatility [TradeDots]The "Price Prediction With Rolling Volatility" is a trading indicator that estimates future price ranges based on the volatility of price movements within a user-defined rolling window.
HOW DOES IT WORK
This indicator utilizes 3 types of user-provided data to conduct its calculations: the length of the rolling window, the number of bars projecting into the future, and a maximum of three sets of standard deviations.
Firstly, the rolling window. The algorithm amasses close prices from the number of bars determined by the value in the rolling window, aggregating them into an array. It then calculates their standard deviations in order to forecast the prospective minimum and maximum price values.
Subsequently, a loop is initiated running into the number of bars into the future, as dictated by the second parameter, to calculate the maximum price change in both the positive and negative direction.
The third parameter introduces a series of standard deviation values into the forecasting model, enabling users to dictate the volatility or confidence level of the results. A larger standard deviation correlates with a wider predicted range, thereby enhancing the probability factor.
APPLICATION
The purpose of the indicator is to provide traders with an understanding of the potential future movement of the price, demarcating maximum and minimum expected outcomes. For instance, if an asset demonstrates a substantial spike beyond the forecasted range, there's a significantly high probability of that price being rejected and reversed.
However, this indicator should not be the sole basis for your trading decisions. The range merely reflects the volatility within the rolling window and may overlook significant historical price movements. As with any trading strategies, synergize this with other indicators for a more comprehensive and reliable analysis.
Note: In instances where the number of predicted bars is exceedingly high, the lines may become scattered, presumably due to inherent limitations on the TradingView platform. Consequently, when applying three SD in your indicator, it is advised to limit the predicted bars to fewer than 80.

Trading entails substantial risk, and most day traders incur losses. All content, tools, scripts, articles, and education provided by TradeDots serve purely informational and educational purposes. Past performances are not definitive predictors of future results.
Mxwll Liquidation Ranges - Mxwll CapitalIntroducing: Mxwll Liquidation Ranges
Mxwll Liquidation Ranges gathers data outside of TradingView to provide the highest quality, highest accuracy liquidation levels and ranges for popular crypto currencies.
Features
Real liquidation ranges and levels calculated outside of TradingView.
Real net position delta
Average leverage for long positions
Average leverage for short positions
Real number of bids for the cryptocurrency by the day
Real number of asks for the cryptocurrency by the day
Real Bid/Ask Ratio
Real Bid/Ask Delta

Real number of short limit orders
How do we obtain this data?
Using a now deprecated feature called "TradingView Pine Seeds", we are able to calculate the metrics listed above outside of TradingView and, consequently, import the data to TradingView for public use.
This means no indicators on TradingView that attempt to show liquidation levels, limit orders, net position delta, etc. can be as accurate as ours.
Why aren't other liquidation ranges indicators on TradingView as accurate as ours?
Simple: the data required to calculate liquidation levels and ranges isn't available on TradingView. No level 2 data, bids, asks, leverage information, pending limit orders, etc. This means any custom-coded indicator on TradingView attempting to use or show this information is just a guess, and is naturally inaccurate.
Mxwll Liquidation Ranges has access to all of the required data outside of TradingView, to which liquidation levels/ranges and other pertinent metrics are calculated and uploaded directly to TradingView using the Pine Seeds feature. This means that all information displayed by our indicator uses legitimate level 2 data outside of TradingView. Which means no "estimates" are required to produce this information. Consequently, unless a custom-coded indicator has access to the Pine Seeds feature and calculates liquidation levels and other level 2 data metrics outside of TradingView, then that indicator is inaccurate.
Liquidation Heatmap
The above image shows our liquidation heatmaps, which are calculated using level 2 data, in action.
Liquidation ranges are color coded. Purple/blue colored ranges indicate a lower number of net liquidations should the range be violated.
Green/yellow ranges indicate a liquidation range where the net number of liquidated positions, should the price range be violated, is substantial. Expect volatile price action around these areas and plan accordingly.
Yellow labels indicate the four highest liquidation ranges for the asset over the period.
Liquidation Levels
In addition to calculating a liquidation heatmap, Mxwll Liquidation Ranges also calculates liquidation levels by leverage. Level 2 data outside of TradingView is used.
Levels are colored coded by leverage used.
Green levels are 25x leverage liquidation areas.
Purple levels are 50x leverage liquidation areas.
Orange levels are 100x leverage liquidation areas.
Use this information to improve your trading plan and better pinpoint entries, exits, and key levels of expected volatility.
Other Metrics
Mxwll Liquidation Ranges uses level 2 data and the orderbook to calculate various metrics.
Average leverage for long positions
Average leverage for short positions
Real number of bids for the cryptocurrency by the day

Real Bid/Ask Ratio
Real Bid/Ask Delta
Real number of long market orders
Real number of short market orders
Real number of long limit orders
Real number of short limit orders
How To Use
Understanding and interpreting heatmaps for predicting liquidation levels in trading can provide a significant edge. Here’s a basic guide on how to interpret these charts:
Understanding Liquidation Levels: Liquidation levels indicate where traders who are using leverage might be forced to exit their positions due to insufficient margin to cover their trades. These levels are crucial because they can trigger sudden price movements if many positions are liquidated at once.
Clusters on the Heatmap: On the heatmap, clusters of liquidation levels are represented by color-coded areas. These clusters show where significant numbers of leveraged positions are concentrated. The color intensity often indicates the density of liquidation points – darker or brighter colors suggest higher concentrations of liquidation risks.
Price Movements: By knowing where these clusters are, traders can anticipate potential price movements. For example, if a significant price drop moves the market closer to a cluster of liquidation levels, there’s an increased risk of those levels being triggered, potentially causing a sharp further drop due to cascading liquidations.
Strategic Trading: With this information, traders can strategically place their own stop losses or prepare to enter trades. Knowing where others might be forced to close their positions can help in predicting bullish or bearish movements.
Risk Management: Understanding liquidation levels helps in managing your own risk. Setting stop losses away from common liquidation points can avoid being caught in volatile price swings caused by mass liquidations.

It's designed for use on index charts alongside the Luxmi AI Smart Sentimeter (INDEX) indicator to enhance performance. This indicator aims to provide refined signals for option scalping strategies, optimizing trading decisions within index markets.
Understanding directional bias is crucial when trading index and index options because it helps traders align their strategies with the expected movement of the underlying index.
The Luxmi AI Filtered Option Scalping Signals (INDEX) indicator aims to simplify and expedite decision-making through comprehensive technical analysis of various data points on a chart. By leveraging advanced analysis of data points, this indicator scrutinizes multiple factors simultaneously to offer traders clear and rapid insights into market dynamics.
The indicator is specifically designed for option scalping, a trading strategy that aims to profit from short-term price fluctuations. It prioritizes signals that are conducive to quick execution and capitalizes on rapid market movements typical of scalping strategies.
Major Features:
Trend Cloud:
Working Principle:
The script utilizes the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to assess market momentum, identifying bullish and bearish phases based on RSI readings. It calculates two boolean variables, bullmove and bearmove, which signal shifts in momentum direction by considering changes in the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the closing price. When RSI indicates bullish momentum and the closing price's EMA exhibits positive changes, bullmove is triggered, signifying the start of a bullish phase. Conversely, when RSI suggests bearish momentum and the closing price's EMA shows negative changes, bearmove is activated, marking the beginning of a bearish phase. This systematic approach helps in understanding the current trend of the price. The script visually emphasizes these phases on the chart using plot shape markers, providing traders with clear indications of trend shifts.
Benefits of Using Trend Cloud:
Comprehensive Momentum Assessment: The script offers a holistic view of market momentum by incorporating RSI readings and changes in the closing price's EMA, enabling traders to identify both bullish and bearish phases effectively.
Structured Trend Recognition: With the calculation of boolean variables, the script provides a structured approach to recognizing shifts in momentum direction, enhancing traders' ability to interpret market dynamics.
Visual Clarity: Plotshape markers visually highlight the start and end of bullish and bearish phases on the chart, facilitating easy identification of trend shifts and helping traders to stay informed.
Prompt Response: Traders can promptly react to changing market conditions as the script triggers alerts when bullish or bearish phases begin, allowing them to seize potential trading opportunities swiftly.
Informed Decision-Making: By integrating various indicators and visual cues, the script enables traders to make well-informed decisions and adapt their strategies according to prevailing market sentiment, ultimately enhancing their trading performance.
How to use this feature:
The most effective way to maximize the benefits of this feature is to use it in conjunction with other key indicators and visual cues. By combining the color-coded clouds, which indicate bullish and bearish sentiment, with other features such as IS candles, microtrend candles, volume candles, and sentimeter candles, traders can gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics. For instance, aligning the color of the clouds with the trend direction indicated by IS candles, microtrend candles, and sentimeter candles can provide confirmation of trend strength or potential reversals.
Furthermore, traders can leverage the trend cloud as a trailing stop-loss tool for long entries, enhancing risk management strategies. By adjusting the stop-loss level based on the color of the cloud, traders can trail their positions to capture potential profits while minimizing losses. For long entries, maintaining the position as long as the cloud remains green can help traders stay aligned with the prevailing bullish sentiment. Conversely, a shift in color from green to red serves as a signal to exit the position, indicating a potential reversal in market sentiment and minimizing potential losses. This integration of the trend cloud as a trailing stop-loss mechanism adds an additional layer of risk management to trading strategies, increasing the likelihood of successful trades while reducing exposure to adverse market movements.
Moreover, the red cloud serves as an indicator of decay in option premiums and potential theta effect, particularly relevant for options traders. When the cloud turns red, it suggests a decline in option prices and an increase in theta decay, highlighting the importance of managing options positions accordingly. Traders may consider adjusting their options strategies, such as rolling positions or closing out contracts, to mitigate the impact of theta decay and preserve capital. By incorporating this insight into options pricing dynamics, traders can make more informed decisions about their options trades.
Scalping Cloud:
The scalping cloud serves as a specialized component within the trend cloud feature, specifically designed to pinpoint potential long and short entry points within the overarching trend cloud. Here's how it works:
Trend Identification: The trend cloud feature typically highlights the prevailing trend direction based on various technical indicators, price action, or other criteria. It visually represents the momentum and direction of the market over a given period.
Refined Entry Signals: Within this broader trend context, the scalping cloud narrows its focus to identify shorter-term trading opportunities. It does this by analyzing more granular price movements and shorter timeframes, seeking out potential entry points that align with the larger trend.
Long and Short Entries: The scalping cloud distinguishes between potential long (buy) and short (sell) entry opportunities within the trend cloud. For instance, within an uptrend indicated by the trend cloud, the scalping cloud might identify brief retracements or pullbacks as potential long entry points. Conversely, in a downtrend, it may signal short entry opportunities during temporary upward corrections.
Risk Management: By identifying potential entry points within the context of the trend, the scalping cloud also aids in risk management. Traders can use these signals to place stop-loss orders and manage their positions effectively, reducing the risk of adverse price movements.
The scalping cloud operates by analyzing the crossover and crossunder events between two key indicators: the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) and a Weighted Average. Here's how it works:
Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA): DEMA is a type of moving average that seeks to reduce lag by applying a double smoothing technique to price data. It responds more quickly to price changes compared to traditional moving averages, making it suitable for identifying short-term trends and potential trading opportunities.
Weighted Average: The weighted average calculates the average price of an asset over a specified period. However, it incorporates a weighting scheme that assigns more significance to recent price data, resulting in a more responsive indicator that closely tracks current market trends.
CE and NO CE Signals:
CE signals typically represent a Long Scalping Opportunity, suggesting that conditions are favorable for entering a long position. These signals indicate a strong upward momentum in the market, which traders can exploit for short-term gains through scalping strategies.
On the other hand, when there are no CE signals present, it doesn't necessarily mean that the trend has reversed or turned bearish. Instead, it indicates that the trend is still bullish, but the market is experiencing an active pullback. During a pullback, prices may temporarily retreat from recent highs as traders take profits or reevaluate their positions. While the overall trend remains upward, the pullback introduces a degree of uncertainty, making it less favorable for entering new long positions.
In such a scenario, traders may opt to exercise caution and refrain from entering new long positions until the pullback phase has concluded. Instead, they might consider waiting for confirmation signals, such as the resumption of CE signals or other bullish indications, before reengaging in long positions.
PE and NO PE Signals:
PE signals typically indicate a Short Entry opportunity, signaling that market conditions are conducive to entering a short position.
Conversely, when there are no PE signals present, it signifies that while the trend remains bearish, the market is currently in an active phase of consolidation or pullback. During such periods, prices may temporarily rise from recent lows, reflecting a pause in the downward momentum. While the overall trend remains downward, the absence of PE signals suggests that it may not be an optimal time to enter new short positions.
In this context, traders may exercise caution and wait for clearer signals before initiating new short positions. They might monitor the market closely for signs of a resumption in bearish momentum, such as the emergence of PE signals or other bearish indications. Alternatively, traders may choose to wait on the sidelines until market conditions stabilize or provide clearer directional signals.
Working Principle Of CE and PE Signals:
The feature calculates candlestick values based on the open, high, low, and close prices of each bar. By comparing these derived candlestick values, it determines whether the current candlestick is bullish or bearish. Additionally, it signals when there is a change in the color (bullish or bearish) of the derived candlesticks compared to the previous bar, enabling traders to identify potential shifts in market sentiment.
Micro Trend Candles:
Working Principle:
This feature begins by initializing variables to determine trend channel width and track price movements. Average True Range (ATR) is then calculated to measure market volatility, influencing the channel's size. Highs and lows are identified within a specified range, and trends are assessed based on price breaches, with potential changes signaled accordingly. The price channel is continually updated to adapt to market shifts, and arrows are placed to indicate potential entry points. Colors are assigned to represent bullish and bearish trends, dynamically adjusting based on current market conditions. Finally, candles on the chart are colored to visually depict the identified micro trend, offering traders an intuitive way to interpret market sentiment and potential entry opportunities.
Benefits of using Micro Trend Candles:
Traders can use these identified micro trends to spot potential short-term trading opportunities. For example:
Trend Following: Traders may decide to enter trades aligned with the prevailing micro trend. If the candles are consistently colored in a certain direction, traders may consider entering positions in that direction.
Reversals: Conversely, if the script signals a potential reversal by changing the candle colors, traders may anticipate trend reversals and adjust their trading strategies accordingly. For instance, they might close existing positions or enter new positions in anticipation of a trend reversal.
It's important to note that these micro trends are short-term in nature and may not always align with broader market trends. Therefore, traders utilizing this script should consider their trading timeframes and adjust their strategies accordingly.
How to use this feature:
This feature assigns colors to candles to represent bullish and bearish trends, with adjustments made based on current market conditions. Green candles accompanied by a green trend cloud signal a potential long entry, while red candles suggest caution, indicating a bearish trend. This visual representation allows traders to interpret market sentiment intuitively, identifying optimal entry points and exercising caution during potential downtrends.
Scalping Candles (Inspired by Elliott Wave and Open Interest Concepts):
Working Principle:
This feature draws inspiration from the Elliot Wave method, utilizing technical analysis techniques to discern potential market trends and sentiment shifts. It begins by calculating the variance between two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of closing prices, mimicking Elliot Wave's focus on wave and trend analysis. The shorter-term EMA captures immediate price momentum, while the longer-term EMA reflects broader market trends. A smoother Exponential Moving Average (EMA) line, derived from the difference between these EMAs, aids in identifying short-term trend shifts or momentum reversals.
Benefits of using Scalping Candles Inspired by Elliott Wave:
The Elliott Wave principle is a form of technical analysis that attempts to predict future price movements by identifying patterns in market charts. It suggests that markets move in repetitive waves or cycles, and traders can potentially profit by recognizing these patterns.
While this script does not explicitly analyze Elliot Wave patterns, it is inspired by the principle's emphasis on trend analysis and market sentiment. By calculating and visualizing the difference between EMAs and assigning colors to candles based on this analysis, the script aims to provide traders with insights into potential market sentiment shifts, which can align with the broader philosophy of Elliott Wave analysis.
How to use this feature:
Candlestick colors are assigned based on the relationship between the EMA line and the variance. When the variance is below or equal to the EMA line, candles are colored red, suggesting a bearish sentiment. Conversely, when the variance is above the EMA line, candles are tinted green, indicating a bullish outlook. Though not explicitly analyzing Elliot Wave patterns, the script aligns with its principles of trend analysis and market sentiment interpretation. By offering visual cues on sentiment shifts, it provides traders with insights into potential trading opportunities, echoing Elliot Wave's emphasis on pattern recognition and trend analysis.
Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Working Principle:
This feature serves to identify and visualize support and resistance levels on the chart, primarily based on the chosen Chart Timeframe (CTF). It allows users to specify parameters such as the number of bars considered on the left and right sides of each pivot point, as well as line width and label color. Moreover, users have the option to enable or disable the display of these levels. By utilizing functions to calculate pivot highs and lows within the specified timeframe, the script determines the highest high and lowest low surrounding each pivot point.
Additionally, it defines functions to create lines and labels for each detected support and resistance level. Notably, this feature incorporates a trading method that emphasizes the concept of resistance turning into support after breakouts, thereby providing valuable insights for traders employing such strategies. These lines are drawn on the chart, with colors indicating whether the level is above or below the current close price, aiding traders in visualizing key levels and making informed trading decisions.
Benefits of Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Identification of Price Levels: Support and resistance levels help traders identify significant price levels where buying (support) and selling (resistance) pressure may intensify. These levels are often formed based on historical price movements and are regarded as areas of interest for traders.
Decision Making: Support and resistance levels assist traders in making informed trading decisions. By observing price reactions near these levels, traders can gauge market sentiment and adjust their strategies accordingly. For example, traders may choose to enter or exit positions, set stop-loss orders, or take profit targets based on price behavior around these levels.
Risk Management: Support and resistance levels aid in risk management by providing reference points for setting stop-loss orders. Traders often place stop-loss orders below support levels for long positions and above resistance levels for short positions to limit potential losses if the market moves against them.
How to use this feature:
Planning Long Positions: When considering long positions, it's advantageous to strategize when the price is in proximity to a support level identified by the script. This suggests a potential area of buying interest where traders may expect a bounce or reversal in price. Additionally, confirm the bullish bias by ensuring that the trend cloud is green, indicating favorable market conditions for long trades.
Waiting for Breakout: If long signals are generated near resistance levels detected by the script, exercise patience and wait for a breakout above the resistance. A breakout above resistance signifies potential strength in the upward momentum and may present a more opportune moment to enter long positions. This approach aligns with trading methodologies that emphasize confirmation of bullish momentum before initiating trades.
StopLoss and Target Lines:
In addition to generating entry signals, this indicator also incorporates predefined stop-loss ray lines and configurable risk-reward (R:R) target lines to enhance risk management and profit-taking strategies. Here's how these features work:
Predefined Stop-loss Ray Lines: The indicator automatically plots stop-loss ray lines on the chart, serving as visual guidelines for setting stop-loss levels. These stop-loss lines are predetermined based on specific criteria, such as volatility levels, support and resistance zones, or predefined risk parameters. Traders can use these lines as reference points to place their stop-loss orders, aiming to limit potential losses if the market moves against their position.
Configurable Risk-Reward (R:R) Target Lines: In addition to stop-loss lines, the indicator allows traders to set configurable risk-reward (R:R) target lines on the chart. These target lines represent predefined price levels where traders intend to take profits based on their desired risk-reward ratio. By adjusting the placement of these lines, traders can customize their risk-reward ratios according to their trading preferences and risk tolerance.
Risk Management: The predefined stop-loss ray lines help traders manage risk by providing clear exit points if the trade goes against their expectations. By adhering to these predetermined stop-loss levels, traders can minimize potential losses and protect their trading capital, thereby enhancing overall risk management.
Profit-taking Strategy: On the other hand, the configurable R:R target lines assist traders in establishing profit-taking strategies. By setting target levels based on their desired risk-reward ratio, traders can aim to capture profits at predefined price levels that offer favorable risk-reward profiles. This allows traders to systematically take profits while ensuring that potential gains outweigh potential losses over the long term.
The stop-loss and target lines incorporated in this indicator are dynamic in nature, providing traders with the flexibility to utilize them as trailing stop-loss and extended take-profit targets. Here's how these dynamic features work:
Trailing Stop-loss: Traders can employ the stop-loss lines as trailing stop-loss levels, allowing them to adjust their stop-loss orders as the market moves in their favor. As the price continues to move in the desired direction, indicator can dynamically adjust the stop-loss line to lock in profits while still allowing room for potential further gains. This trailing stop-loss mechanism helps traders secure profits while allowing their winning trades to continue running as long as the market remains favorable.
Extended Take Profit Targets: Similarly, traders can utilize the target lines as extended take-profit targets, enabling them to capture additional profits beyond their initial profit targets. By adjusting the placement of these target lines based on evolving market conditions or technical signals, traders can extend their profit-taking strategy to capitalize on potential price extensions or trend continuations. This flexibility allows traders to maximize their profit potential by capturing larger price movements while managing their risk effectively.
Rangebound Bars:
When the Rangebound Bars feature is enabled, the indicator represents candles in a distinct purple color to visually denote periods of sideways or range-bound price action. This visual cue helps traders easily identify when the market is consolidating and lacking clear directional momentum. Here's how it works:
Purple Candle Color: When the Rangebound Bars feature is active, the indicator displays candlesticks in a purple color to highlight periods of sideways price movement. This color differentiation stands out against the usual colors used for bullish (e.g., green or white) and bearish (e.g., red or black) candles, making it easier for traders to recognize range-bound conditions at a glance.
Signaling Sideways Price Action: The purple coloration of candles indicates that price movements are confined within a relatively narrow range and lack a clear upward or downward trend. This may occur when the market is consolidating, experiencing indecision, or undergoing a period of accumulation or distribution.
Working Principle:
The Rangebound Bars feature of this indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying and navigating consolidating market conditions, where price movements are confined within a relatively narrow range. This feature utilizes Pivot levels and the Average True Range (ATR) concept to determine when the market is range-bound and provides signals to stay out of such price action. Here's how it works:
Pivot Levels: Pivot levels are key price levels derived from the previous period's high, low, and closing prices. They serve as potential support and resistance levels and are widely used by traders to identify significant price levels where price action may stall or reverse. The Rangebound Bars feature incorporates Pivot levels into its analysis to identify ranges where price tends to consolidate.
Average True Range (ATR): The Average True Range is a measure of market volatility that calculates the average range between the high and low prices over a specified period. It provides traders with insights into the level of price volatility and helps set appropriate stop-loss and take-profit levels. In the context of the Rangebound Bars feature, ATR is used to gauge the extent of price fluctuations within the identified range.
Multi Timeframe ATR IndicatorThe Average True Range (ATR) indicator is a technical analysis tool used to measure market volatility. The ATR indicator is designed to capture the degree of price movement or price volatility over a specified period of time. It does this by calculating the true range for each bar or candlestick on a chart and then taking an average of these true range values over a set period.
In the provided Pine Script code, the ATR indicator is being calculated for two different timeframes, which allows traders to compare volatility across different periods. The script includes user-defined inputs for the length of the ATR calculation and the type of smoothing (RMA or SMA) to be applied to the true range values. The 'smoothingFunc' function within the script determines whether to use the RMA (Relative Moving Average) or SMA (Simple Moving Average) based on the user's selection.
The true range for each bar is calculated as the maximum of the following three values: the difference between the current high and low, the absolute value of the difference between the current high and the previous close, and the absolute value of the difference between the current low and the previous close. This calculation is designed to ensure that gaps and limit moves are properly accounted for in the volatility measurement.
The script then uses the 'smoothingFunc' to calculate the ATR values for the two timeframes, and these values are plotted on the chart as two separate lines, allowing traders to visually assess the volatility levels.
Overall, this custom ATR indicator is a versatile tool for traders who wish to analyse market volatility and compare it across different timeframes, potentially aiding in making more informed trading decisions based on the prevailing market conditions.
VIX and SKEW RSI Moving AveragesSKEW and VIX are both indicators of market volatility and risk, but they represent different aspects.
VIX (CBOE Volatility Index) :.
The VIX is a well-known indicator for predicting future market volatility. It is calculated primarily based on S&P 500 options premiums and indicates the degree of market instability and risk.
Typically, when the VIX is high, market participants view the future as highly uncertain and expect sharp volatility in stock prices. It is generally considered an indicator of market fear.
SKEW Index :.
The SKEW is a measure of how much market participants estimate the risk of future declines in stock prices, calculated by the CBOE (Chicago Board Options Exchange) and derived from the premium on S&P 500 options.
If the SKEW is high, market participants consider the risk of future declines in stock prices to be high. This generally indicates a "fat tail at the base" of the market and suggests that the market perceives it as very risky.
These indicators are used by market participants to indicate their concerns and expectations about future stock price volatility. In general, when the VIX is high and the SKEW is high, the market is considered volatile and risky. Conversely, when the VIX is low and the SKEW is low, the market is considered relatively stable and low risk.
Inverse Relationship between SKEW and VIX
It is often observed that there is an inverse correlation between SKEW and VIX. In general, the relationship is as follows
High VIX and low SKEW: When the VIX is high and the SKEW is low, the market is considered volatile while the risk of future stock price declines is low. This indicates that the market is exposed to sharp volatility, but market participants do not expect a major decline.
Low VIX and High SKEW: A low VIX and high SKEW indicates that the market is relatively stable, while the risk of future declines in stock prices is considered high. This indicates that the market is calm, but market participants are wary of a sharp future decline.
This inverse correlation is believed to be the result of market participants' psychology and expectations affecting the movements of the VIX and SKEW. For example, when the VIX is high, it is evident that the market is volatile, and under such circumstances, people tend to view the risk of a sharp decline in stock prices as low. Conversely, when the VIX is low, the market is considered relatively stable and the risk of future declines is likely to be higher.
SKEWVIX RSIMACROSS
In order to compare the trends of the SKEW and VIX, the 50-period moving average of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) was used for verification. the RSI is an indicator of market overheating or overcooling, and the 50-period moving average can be used to determine the medium- to long-term trend. This analysis reveals how the inverse correlation between the SKEW and the VIX relates to the long-term moving average of the RSI.
how to use
Moving Average Direction
Rising blue for VIXRSI indicates increased uncertainty in the market
Rising red for SKEWRSI indicates optimism and beyond
RSI moving average crossing
When the SKEW is dominant, market participants are considered less concerned about a black swan event (significant unexpected price volatility). This suggests that the market is stable and willing to take risks. On the other hand, when the VIX is dominant, it indicates increased market volatility. Investors are more concerned about market uncertainty and tend to take more conservative positions to avoid risk. The direction of the moving averages and the crossing of the moving averages of the two indicators can give an indication of the state of the market.
SKEW>VIX Optimistic/Goldilocks
VIX>SKEW Uncertainty/turbulence
The market can be judged as follows.

KC-MACD Entry Master @shrilssThe KC-MACD Entry Master is designed to enhance trading strategies by utilizing Keltner Channels and MACD for dynamic market analysis. This indicator excels in visually identifying market conditions with a sophisticated bar coloring system and an informative MACD Traffic Light feature.
Key Features:
- Dynamic Bar Coloring: The core feature of this indicator is its ability to adjust the color of bars based on their positioning relative to the Keltner Channels and the EMA (Exponential Moving Average). It colors bars lime or red when the closing price is within the Keltner Channels but above or below the EMA, respectively. Additionally, it uses a fuchsia color to indicate breakouts when the price extends beyond the Keltner Channels. This visual aid helps traders quickly identify potential buying or selling opportunities based on market volatility and price action.
- MACD Traffic Light: Positioned at the bottom of the chart, this unique feature displays the histogram color of the MACD, set by default to a 3/10/16 configuration—known as the 3-10 Oscillator. This Traffic Light gives traders an at-a-glance view of the underlying momentum and trend shifts, further aiding in decision-making processes.
- MACD-Based Entry Signals: By calculating the fast and slow moving averages specified by the user, the script determines MACD values and their crossover with a smoothed signal line. Entry points are then highlighted with shapes (e.g., "Buy" or "Sell") plotted on the chart when conditions are met, including alignment with the bar colors for enhanced accuracy.
Long Bar Highlighter @shrilssThe Long Bar Highlighter is designed to detect long bars that exhibit significant price expansion beyond recent price levels. It highlights bars that exceed the length of the previous four bars, marking them for their potential importance in market movements. Additionally, the indicator plots directional shapes based on the closing prices, which helps traders visualize potential upward or downward momentum. An optional ATR crossover setting refines these signals, focusing on stronger trends for more optimal trading opportunities.

- If min and max prices reach the range (%) from amount of bars on timeframe set for any symbol checked it will trigger an alert.
- If next set of bars reaches higher range than before it will trigger an alert with new data
- If next set of bars doesn't reach higher range than before it will not trigger alerts, even if they are above the range set (this is to prevent the alert to keep triggering with high frequency)
Once condition is met it will send an alert with the following information:
- Symbol name (e.g: BTC, ETH, LTC)
- Range achieved (e.g: 3,03%)
- Current symbol price and current bar direction (e.g: 63,477.1 ▲)
This script will request lowest and highest prices through request.security() built-in function from all different symbols within the range set. It also requests symbols' price (close) and amount of digits (mintick) for each symbol to send alerts with correct value.
This script was developed with main purpose to send alerts when there are strong price movements and I decided to share with community so anyone can set different parameters for different purposes.

The script settings can be adjusted according to the specific needs of each user.
The mean and standard deviation are two fundamental statistical concepts often represented in a Gaussian curve, or normal distribution. Here's a quick little lesson on these concepts:
Average
The mean (or arithmetic mean) is the result of the sum of all values in a data set divided by the total number of values. In a data distribution, it represents the center of gravity of the data points.
Standard Deviation
The standard deviation measures the dispersion of the data relative to its mean. A low standard deviation indicates that the data is clustered near the mean, while a high standard deviation shows that it is more spread out.
Gaussian curve
The Gaussian curve or normal distribution is a graphical representation showing the probability of distribution of data. It has the shape of a symmetrical bell centered on the middle. The width of the curve is determined by the standard deviation.
68-95-99.7 rule (rule of thumb): Approximately 68% of the data is within one standard deviation of the mean, 95% is within two standard deviations, and 99.7% is within three standard deviations.
In statistics, understanding the mean and standard deviation allows you to infer a lot about the nature of the data and its trends, and the Gaussian curve provides an intuitive visualization of this information.
In finance, it is crucial to remember that data dispersion can be more random and unpredictable than traditional statistical models like the normal distribution suggest. Financial markets are often affected by unforeseen events or changes in investor behavior, which can result in return distributions with wider standard deviations or non-symmetrical distributions.
Tweet/X Post Timestamp - By LeviathanThis script allows you to generate visual timestamps of X/Twitter posts directly on your chart, highlighting the precise moment an X post/tweet was made. All you have to do is copy and paste the post URL.
◽️ Use Cases:
- News Trading: Traders can use this indicator to visually align market price actions with news or announcements made on X (formerly Twitter), aiding in the analysis of news impact on market volatility.
- Behavioral Analysis: Traders studying the influence of social media on price can use the timestamps to track correlations between specific posts and market reactions.
- Proof of Predictions: Traders can use this indicator to timestamp their market forecasts shared on X (formerly Twitter), providing a visual record of their predictions relative to actual market movements. This feature allows for transparent verification of the timing and accuracy of their analyses
◽️ Process of Timestamp Calculation
The calculation of the timestamp from a tweet ID involves the following steps:
Extracting the Post ID:
The script first parses the input URL provided by the user to extract the unique ID of the tweet or X post. This ID is embedded in the URL and is crucial for determining the exact posting time.
Calculating the Timestamp:
The post ID undergoes a mathematical transformation known as a right shift by 22 bits. This operation aligns the ID's timestamp to a base reference time used by the platform.
Adding Base Offset:
The result from the right shift is then added to a base offset timestamp (1288834974657 ms, the epoch used by Twitter/X). This converts the processed ID into a UNIX timestamp reflecting the exact moment the post was made.
Date-Time Conversion:
The UNIX timestamp is further broken down into conventional date and time components (year, month, day, hour, minute, second) using calculations that account for leap years and varying days per month.
Label Placement:
Based on user settings, labels displaying the timestamp, username, and other optional information such as price changes or pivot points are dynamically placed on the chart at the bar corresponding to the timestamp.
Dise prev Gen Long/Short
This script builds levels based on the High and Low of the previous trading day; a middle line is also added, which is the average value of these data. The indicator generates a long signal when the High level of the previous day is broken, as well as a short signal when the low is broken. The idea of the indicator is to capture volatility in the crypto market. You can try small takes of 1-2% of the movement, they will be more likely to work out. The script is intended rather to search for interesting “strong” assets within a day, for further analysis of whether it is worth trading or not.
EMA Scalping StrategyEMA Slope Indicator Overview:
The indicator plots two exponential moving averages (EMAs) on the chart: a 9-period EMA and a 15-period EMA.
It visually represents the EMAs on the chart and highlights instances where the slope of each EMA exceeds a certain threshold (approximately 30 degrees).
Scalping Strategy:
Using the EMA Slope Indicator on a 5-minute timeframe for scalping can be effective, but it requires adjustments to account for the shorter time horizon.
Trend Identification: Look for instances where the 9-period EMA is above the 15-period EMA. This indicates an uptrend. Conversely, if the 9-period EMA is below the 15-period EMA, it suggests a downtrend.
Slope Analysis: Pay attention to the slope of each EMA. When the slope of both EMAs is steep (exceeds 30 degrees), it signals a strong trend. This can be a favorable condition for scalping as it suggests potential momentum.
Entry Points:
For Long (Buy) Positions: Consider entering a long position when both EMAs are sloping upwards strongly (exceeding 30 degrees) and the 9-period EMA is above the 15-period EMA. Look for entry points when price retraces to the EMAs or when there's a bullish candlestick pattern.
For Short (Sell) Positions: Look for opportunities to enter short positions when both EMAs are sloping downwards strongly (exceeding -30 degrees) and the 9-period EMA is below the 15-period EMA. Similar to long positions, consider entering on retracements or bearish candlestick patterns.
Exit Strategy: Use tight stop-loss orders to manage risk, and aim for small, quick profits. Since scalping involves short-term trading, consider exiting positions when the momentum starts to weaken or when the price reaches a predetermined profit target.
Risk Management:
Scalping involves high-frequency trading with smaller profit targets, so it's crucial to implement strict risk management practices. This includes setting stop-loss orders to limit potential losses and not risking more than a small percentage of your trading capital on each trade.
Backtesting and Optimization:
Before implementing the strategy in live trading, backtest it on historical data to assess its performance under various market conditions. You may also consider optimizing the strategy parameters (e.g., EMA lengths) to maximize its effectiveness.
Continuous Monitoring:
Keep a close eye on market conditions and adjust your strategy accordingly. Market dynamics can change rapidly, so adaptability is key to successful scalping.

TradeTale Reversal Cluster ▲▼This script explains how an Oscillator along with Moving Average & Deviation can be used to catch "Reversal Points (Highest points above Overbought & Lowest points below Oversold)".
What is an Oscillator:-
An oscillator is a technical analysis tool that constructs high and low bands between two extreme values and then builds a trend indicator that fluctuates within these bounds. Traders use the trend indicator to discover short-term overbought or oversold conditions. An oscillator with MA & Deviation is used along with minor calculations (maths) in this Oscillator for generating Long (Green Triangles) and Short signals (Red Triangles).
Moving Average (MA):-
A moving average (MA) is used in technical analysis, used to help smooth out price data by creating a constantly updated average price. A rising moving average indicates that the security is in an uptrend, while a declining moving average indicates a downtrend.
Standard Deviation:-
It is a statistical measure of the amount of variation or dispersion in a set of values. It is used to measure the volatility of an asset's price. It is used to measure how much the price varies from its average price over a certain period of time. A higher standard deviation indicates that the prices are more spread out from the mean, suggesting higher volatility, while a lower standard deviation indicates more stable prices.
Calculation of Standard Deviation
- Find the average value of the data set.
- Find the difference between each data point and the mean.
- Square each of these differences.
- Find the average of the squared differences.
- Take the square root of the variance.
Logic of this indicator:-
This indicator calculates the average price using the formula (high + low + close * 2)/4.
Moving Average & its standard deviation is calculated over a period of 5.
It calculates an oscillator value using a special formula which includes MA & Deviation with Price Action over a period of 5. after that :-
- It determines the highest points for Bearish Red Triangles (Bearish Reversal) and
- It also determines the lowest points for Bullish Green Triangle (Bullish Reversal).
These Triangle signals are based on the calculations of the oscillator values and their MAs & Deviation, and they aim to identify potential reversal points in the price action, when goes above (Bearish Reversal) and when goes below (Bullish Reversal). An oscillator that fluctuates between zero and 100 makes it easy to use for many traders. Its easy to identify extremes because an Oscillator is range-bound.
"Green Triangles" signal in is Long Signal and also exit Short signal. (Bullish Entry/Bearish Exit)
"Red Triangles" signal is Short Signal and also exit Long signal. (Bearish Entry/Bullish Exit)
Caution:-
But remember that Oscillators works best in range bound market and is less trustworthy in trending markets. (caution)
A new trader need to be cautious because during strong trends in the market/security, An oscillator may remain in overbought or oversold condition for extended periods.
Chart Timeframe:-
This Indicator works on all timeframes.
Traders should set stop loss and take profit levels as per risk reward ratio.
Note:-
Like other technical indicators, This indicator also is not a holy grail. It can only assist you in building a good strategy. You can only succeed with proper position sizing, risk management and following correct trading Psychology (No overtrade, No greed, No revenge trade etc).
THIS INDICATOR IS FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSE AND PAPER TRADING ONLY. YOU MAY PAPER TRADE TO GAIN CONFIDENCE AND BUILD FURTHER ON THESE. PLEASE CONSULT YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR BEFORE INVESTING. WE ARE NOT SEBI REGISTERED.
Hope you all like it
happy learning.
Candle Strength based on Relative Strength of EMAOverview:
The EMA-Based Relative Strength Labels indicator provides a dynamic method to visualize the strength of price movements relative to an Exponential Moving Average (EMA). By comparing the current price to the EMA, it assigns labels (A, B, C for bullish and X, Y, Z for bearish) to candles, indicating the intensity of bullish or bearish behavior.
Key Features:
Dynamic EMA Comparison: The indicator calculates the difference between the current price and the EMA, expressing it as a percentage to determine relative strength.
Configurable Thresholds: Users can set custom thresholds for strong, moderate, and low bullish or bearish movements, allowing for tailored analysis based on personal trading strategy or market behavior.
Clear Visual Labels: Each candle is labeled directly on the chart, making it easy to spot significant price movements at a glance.
Usage:
Trend Confirmation: The labels help confirm the prevailing trend's strength, aiding traders in decision-making regarding entry or exit points.
Risk Management: By identifying the strength of the price movements, traders can better manage stop-loss placements and avoid potential false breakouts.
Strategy Development: Incorporate the indicator into trading systems to enhance strategies that depend on trend strength and momentum.
How It Works:
The script calculates the EMA of the closing prices and measures the relative strength of each candle to this average.
Bullish candles above the EMA and bearish candles below the EMA are further analyzed to determine their strength based on predefined percentage thresholds.
Labels 'A', 'B', and 'C' are assigned for varying degrees of bullish strength, while 'X', 'Y', and 'Z' denote levels of bearish intensity.
Customization:
Users can adjust the EMA period and modify the strength thresholds for both bullish and bearish conditions to suit different instruments and timeframes.
Best Practices:
Combine this indicator with volume analysis and other technical tools for comprehensive market analysis.
Regularly update the thresholds based on market volatility and personal risk tolerance to maintain the effectiveness of the labels.

Candle details:
Candle.new(open_1, high_1, low_1, close_1)
Swing Harmony IndicatorThis indicator is called "Swing Harmony Indicator" and it calculates the average of the highest high and lowest low prices over a certain period, along with a simple moving average of the closing prices. It then plots these values on the chart, with the color of the average line dynamically changing based on whether the second average is less than or greater than the first average.
Dynamic Price Oscillator (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Dynamic Price Oscillator (DPO) by Zeiierman is designed to gauge the momentum and volatility of asset prices in trading markets. By integrating elements of traditional oscillators with volatility adjustments and Bollinger Bands, the DPO offers a unique approach to understanding market dynamics. This indicator is particularly useful for identifying overbought and oversold conditions, capturing price trends, and detecting potential reversal points.
█ How It Works
The DPO operates by calculating the difference between the current closing price and a moving average of the closing price, adjusted for volatility using the True Range method. This difference is then smoothed over a user-defined period to create the oscillator. Additionally, Bollinger Bands are applied to the oscillator itself, providing visual cues for volatility and potential breakout signals.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Confirmation
The DPO can serve as a confirmation tool for existing trends. Traders might look for the oscillator to maintain above or below its mean line to confirm bullish or bearish trends, respectively. A consistent direction in the oscillator's movement alongside price trend can provide additional confidence in the strength and sustainability of the trend.
⚪ Overbought/Oversold Conditions
With the application of Bollinger Bands directly on the oscillator, the DPO can highlight overbought or oversold conditions in a unique manner. When the oscillator moves outside the Bollinger Bands, it signifies an extreme condition.
⚪ Volatility Breakouts
The width of the Bollinger Bands on the oscillator reflects market volatility. Sudden expansions in the bands can indicate a breakout from a consolidation phase, which traders can use to enter trades in the direction of the breakout. Conversely, a contraction suggests a quieter market, which might be a signal for traders to wait or to look for range-bound strategies.
⚪ Momentum Trading
Momentum traders can use the DPO to spot moments when the market momentum is picking up. A sharp move of the oscillator towards either direction, especially when crossing the Bollinger Bands, can indicate the start of a strong price movement.
⚪ Mean Reversion
The DPO is also useful for mean reversion strategies, especially considering its volatility adjustment feature. When the oscillator touches or breaches the Bollinger Bands, it indicates a deviation from the normal price range. Traders might look for opportunities to enter trades anticipating a reversion to the mean.
⚪ Divergence Trading
Divergences between the oscillator and price action can be a powerful signal for reversals. For instance, if the price makes a new high but the oscillator fails to make a corresponding high, it may indicate weakening momentum and a potential reversal. Traders can use these divergence signals to initiate counter-trend moves.
█ Settings
Length: Determines the lookback period for the oscillator and Bollinger Bands calculation. Increasing this value smooths the oscillator and widens the Bollinger Bands, leading to fewer, more significant signals. Decreasing this value makes the oscillator more sensitive to recent price changes, offering more frequent signals but with increased noise.
Smoothing Factor: Adjusts the degree of smoothing applied to the oscillator's calculation. A higher smoothing factor reduces noise, offering clearer trend identification at the cost of signal timeliness. Conversely, a lower smoothing factor increases the oscillator's responsiveness to price movements, which may be useful for short-term trading but at the risk of false signals.

█ Giga Kaleidoscope (GKD) Modularized Trading System
The GKD Trading System is a comprehensive, algorithmic trading framework from AlgxTrading, designed to optimize trading strategies across various market conditions. It employs a modular approach, incorporating elements such as volatility assessment, trend identification through a baseline, multiple confirmation strategies for signal accuracy, and volume analysis. Key components also include specialized strategies for entry and exit, enabling precise trade execution. The system allows for extensive backtesting, providing traders with the ability to evaluate the effectiveness of their strategies using historical data. Aimed at reducing setup time, the GKD system empowers traders to focus more on strategy refinement and execution, leveraging a wide array of technical indicators for informed decision-making.
🔶 Core components of a GKD Algorithmic Trading System
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, GKD-M, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD system. The GKD algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are eight core components in the GKD trading algorithm:
🔹 Volatility - In the GKD trading system, volatility is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. There are 17+ different types of volatility available in the GKD system including Average True Range (ATR), True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, Garman-Klass, and more.
🔹 Baseline (GKD-B) - The baseline is essentially a moving average and is used to determine the overall direction of the market. The baseline in the GKD trading system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other GKD indicators.
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards or price is above the baseline, then only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards or price is below the baseline, then only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
🔹 Confirmation 1, Confirmation 2, Continuation (GKD-C) - The GKD trading system incorporates technical confirmation indicators for the generation of its primary long and short signals, essential for its operation.
The GKD trading system distinguishes three specific categories. The first category, Confirmation 1 , encompasses technical indicators designed to identify trends and generate explicit trading signals. The second category, Confirmation 2 , a technical indicator used to identify trends; this type of indicator is primarily used to filter the Confirmation 1 indicator signals; however, this type of confirmation indicator also generates signals*. Lastly, the Continuation category includes technical indicators used in conjunction with Confirmation 1 and Confirmation 2 to generate a special type of trading signal called a "Continuation"
In a full GKD trading system all three categories generate signals. (see the section “GKD Trading System Signals” below)
🔹 Volatility/Volume (GKD-V) - Volatility/Volume indicators are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading Volatility/Volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the GKD trading system, Volatility/Volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the various other GKD indicators. In the GKD trading system, Volatility is a proxy for Volume and vice versa.
Volatility/Volume indicators reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by GKD-C confirmation and GKD-B baseline indicators.
🔹 Exit (GKD-E) - The exit indicator in the GKD system is an indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
🔹 Backtest (GKD-BT) - The GKD-BT backtest indicators link all other GKD-C, GKD-B, GKD-E, GKD-V, and GKD-M components together to create a GKD trading system. GKD-BT backtests generate signals (see the section “GKD Trading System Signals” below) from the confluence of various GKD indicators that are imported into the GKD-BT backtest. Backtest types include: GKD-BT solo and full GKD backtest strategies used for a single ticker; GKD-BT optimizers used to optimize a single indicator or the full GKD trading system; GKD-BT Multi-ticker used to backtest a single indicator or the full GKD trading system across up to ten tickers; GKD-BT exotic backtests like CC, Baseline, and Giga Stacks used to test confluence between GKD components to then be injected into a core GKD-BT Multi-ticker backtest or single ticker strategy.
🔹 Metamorphosis (GKD-M) ** - The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-E, or GKD-V slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.

**not a required component of the GKD algorithm
🔶 What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Volatility: Average True Range (ATR) (selectable in all backtests and other related GKD indicators)
GKD-B Baseline: GKD-B Multi-Ticker Baseline using Hull Moving Average
GKD-C Confirmation 1 : GKD-C Advance Trend Pressure
GKD-C Confirmation 2: GKD-C Dorsey Inertia
GKD-C Continuation: GKD-C Stochastic of RSX
GKD-V Volatility/Volume: GKD-V Damiani Volatmeter
GKD-E Exit: GKD-E MFI
GKD-BT Backtest: GKD-BT Multi-Ticker Full GKD Backtest
GKD-M Metamorphosis: GKD-M Baseline Optimizer
**all indicators mentioned above are included in the same AlgxTrading package**
Each module is passed to a GKD-BT backtest module. In the backtest module, all components are combined to formulate trading signals and statistical output. This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to AlgxTrading's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the various indictor types in the GKD algorithm.
🔶 GKD Trading System Signals
Standard Entry requires a sequence of conditions including a confirmation signal from GKD-C, baseline agreement, price criteria related to the Goldie Locks Zone, and concurrence from a second confirmation and volatility/volume indicators.
1-Candle Standard Entry introduces a two-phase process where initial conditions must be met, followed by a retraction in price and additional confirmations in the subsequent candle, including baseline, confirmations 1 and 2, and volatility/volume criteria.
Baseline Entry focuses on signals generated by the GKD-B Baseline, requiring agreement from confirmation signals, specific price conditions within the Goldie Locks Zone, and a timing condition related to the confirmation 1 signal.
1-Candle Baseline Entry mirrors the baseline entry but adds a requirement for a price retraction and subsequent confirmations in the following candle, maintaining the focus on the baseline's guidance.
Volatility/Volume Entry is predicated on signals from volatility/volume indicators, requiring support from confirmations, price criteria within the Goldie Locks Zone, baseline agreement, and a timing condition for the confirmation 1 signal.
1-Candle Volatility/Volume Entry adapts the volatility/volume entry to include a phase of initial signal and agreement, followed by a retracement phase that seeks further agreement from the system's components in the subsequent candle.
Confirmation 2 Entry is based on the second confirmation signal, requiring the first confirmation's agreement, specific price criteria, agreement from volatility/volume indicators, and baseline, with a timing condition for the confirmation 1 signal.
1-Candle Confirmation 2 Entry adds a retracement requirement to the confirmation 2 entry, necessitating additional agreements from the system's components in the candle following the signal.
PullBack Entry initiates with a baseline signal and agreement from the first confirmation, with a price condition related to volatility. It then looks for price to return within the Goldie Locks Zone and seeks further agreement from the system's components in the subsequent candle.
Continuation Entry allows for the continuation of an active position, based on a previously triggered entry strategy. It requires that the baseline hasn't crossed since the initial trigger, alongside ongoing agreements from confirmations and the baseline.

The baseline in the GKD trading system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other GKD indicators.
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards or price is above the baseline, then only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards or price is below the baseline, then only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
🔹 Confirmation 1, Confirmation 2, Continuation (GKD-C) - The GKD trading system incorporates technical confirmation indicators for the generation of its primary long and short signals, essential for its operation.
The GKD trading system distinguishes three specific categories. The first category, Confirmation 1 , encompasses technical indicators designed to identify trends and generate explicit trading signals. The second category, Confirmation 2 , a technical indicator used to identify trends; this type of indicator is primarily used to filter the Confirmation 1 indicator signals; however, this type of confirmation indicator also generates signals*. Lastly, the Continuation category includes technical indicators used in conjunction with Confirmation 1 and Confirmation 2 to generate a special type of trading signal called a "Continuation"
In a full GKD trading system all three categories generate signals. (see the section “GKD Trading System Signals” below)
🔹 Volatility/Volume (GKD-V) - Volatility/Volume indicators are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading Volatility/Volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the GKD trading system, Volatility/Volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the various other GKD indicators. In the GKD trading system, Volatility is a proxy for Volume and vice versa.
Volatility/Volume indicators reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by GKD-C confirmation and GKD-B baseline indicators.
🔹 Exit (GKD-E) - The exit indicator in the GKD system is an indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
🔹 Backtest (GKD-BT) - The GKD-BT backtest indicators link all other GKD-C, GKD-B, GKD-E, GKD-V, and GKD-M components together to create a GKD trading system. GKD-BT backtests generate signals (see the section “GKD Trading System Signals” below) from the confluence of various GKD indicators that are imported into the GKD-BT backtest. Backtest types include: GKD-BT solo and full GKD backtest strategies used for a single ticker; GKD-BT optimizers used to optimize a single indicator or the full GKD trading system; GKD-BT Multi-ticker used to backtest a single indicator or the full GKD trading system across up to ten tickers; GKD-BT exotic backtests like CC, Baseline, and Giga Stacks used to test confluence between GKD components to then be injected into a core GKD-BT Multi-ticker backtest or single ticker strategy.
🔹 Metamorphosis (GKD-M) ** - The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-E, or GKD-V slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.

🔶 What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Volatility: Average True Range (ATR) (selectable in all backtests and other related GKD indicators)
GKD-B Baseline: GKD-B Multi-Ticker Baseline using Hull Moving Average
GKD-C Confirmation 1 : GKD-C Advance Trend Pressure
GKD-C Confirmation 2: GKD-C Dorsey Inertia
GKD-C Continuation: GKD-C Stochastic of RSX
GKD-V Volatility/Volume: GKD-V Damiani Volatmeter
GKD-E Exit: GKD-E MFI
GKD-BT Backtest: GKD-BT Multi-Ticker Full GKD Backtest
GKD-M Metamorphosis: GKD-M Baseline Optimizer
**all indicators mentioned above are included in the same AlgxTrading package**
Each module is passed to a GKD-BT backtest module. In the backtest module, all components are combined to formulate trading signals and statistical output. This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to AlgxTrading's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the various indictor types in the GKD algorithm.
🔶 GKD Trading System Signals
Standard Entry requires a sequence of conditions including a confirmation signal from GKD-C, baseline agreement, price criteria related to the Goldie Locks Zone, and concurrence from a second confirmation and volatility/volume indicators.
1-Candle Standard Entry introduces a two-phase process where initial conditions must be met, followed by a retraction in price and additional confirmations in the subsequent candle, including baseline, confirmations 1 and 2, and volatility/volume criteria.
Baseline Entry focuses on signals generated by the GKD-B Baseline, requiring agreement from confirmation signals, specific price conditions within the Goldie Locks Zone, and a timing condition related to the confirmation 1 signal.
1-Candle Baseline Entry mirrors the baseline entry but adds a requirement for a price retraction and subsequent confirmations in the following candle, maintaining the focus on the baseline's guidance.
Volatility/Volume Entry is predicated on signals from volatility/volume indicators, requiring support from confirmations, price criteria within the Goldie Locks Zone, baseline agreement, and a timing condition for the confirmation 1 signal.
1-Candle Volatility/Volume Entry adapts the volatility/volume entry to include a phase of initial signal and agreement, followed by a retracement phase that seeks further agreement from the system's components in the subsequent candle.
Confirmation 2 Entry is based on the second confirmation signal, requiring the first confirmation's agreement, specific price criteria, agreement from volatility/volume indicators, and baseline, with a timing condition for the confirmation 1 signal.
1-Candle Confirmation 2 Entry adds a retracement requirement to the confirmation 2 entry, necessitating additional agreements from the system's components in the candle following the signal.
PullBack Entry initiates with a baseline signal and agreement from the first confirmation, with a price condition related to volatility. It then looks for price to return within the Goldie Locks Zone and seeks further agreement from the system's components in the subsequent candle.
Continuation Entry allows for the continuation of an active position, based on a previously triggered entry strategy. It requires that the baseline hasn't crossed since the initial trigger, alongside ongoing agreements from confirmations and the baseline.

Market Trend OscillatorMarket Trend Oscillator segments the market into ranged bound and trending aspect. The threshold level segregates both types of market. With higher level, both the risk and reward lower down.
The MTO indicator, is based on Standard Deviation, difference between highest high and lowest low, ATR and ADR. There are two different volatility aspect which are:
Volatility according to the movement of one price e.g. closing price.
Volatility according to the candles.
The minimum of both these aspects gives an insight into the volatility of the market. To segregate a dynamic value with ATR and ADR is used with the threshold level. Moreover, the volatilities can be smoothed to have a smoother decision making.
