BTCUSD Momentum After Abnormal DaysThis indicator identifies abnormal days in the Bitcoin market (BTCUSD) based on daily returns exceeding specific thresholds defined by a statistical approach. It is inspired by the findings of Caporale and Plastun (2020), who analyzed the cryptocurrency market's inefficiencies and identified exploitable patterns, particularly around abnormal returns.
Key Concept:
Abnormal Days:
Days where the daily return significantly deviates (positively or negatively) from the historical average.
Positive abnormal days: Returns exceed the mean return plus k times the standard deviation.
Negative abnormal days: Returns fall below the mean return minus k times the standard deviation.
Momentum Effect:
As described in the academic paper, on abnormal days, prices tend to move in the direction of the abnormal return until the end of the trading day, creating momentum effects. This can be leveraged by traders for profit opportunities.
How It Works:
Calculation:
The script calculates the daily return as the percentage difference between the open and close prices. It then derives the mean and standard deviation of returns over a configurable lookback period.
Thresholds:
The script dynamically computes upper and lower thresholds for abnormal days using the mean and standard deviation. Days exceeding these thresholds are flagged as abnormal.
Visualization:
The mean return and thresholds are plotted as dynamic lines.
Abnormal days are visually highlighted with transparent green (positive) or red (negative) backgrounds on the chart.
References:
This indicator is based on the methodology discussed in "Momentum Effects in the Cryptocurrency Market After One-Day Abnormal Returns" by Caporale and Plastun (2020). Their research demonstrates that hourly returns during abnormal days exhibit a strong momentum effect, moving in the same direction as the abnormal return. This behavior contradicts the efficient market hypothesis and suggests profitable trading opportunities.
"Prices tend to move in the direction of abnormal returns till the end of the day, which implies the existence of a momentum effect on that day giving rise to exploitable profit opportunities" (Caporale & Plastun, 2020).

US/JP Factor/Sector Performance RankingThis indicator is designed to help you easily understand the strengths and weaknesses of different factors and sectors in the U.S. stock market. It looks at various ETFs, ranks their performance over a specific period (20 days by default), and shows the results visually.
= How the Ranking Works
The best-performing rank is shown as -1, with lower ranks as -2, -3, -4, and so on. This setup makes it easy to see rank order in TradingView’s default view.
If you turn on the “Inverse” setting, ranks will be shown as positive numbers in order (e.g., 1, 2, 3…). In this case, it’s recommended to reverse the TradingView scale for better understanding.
= How the Indicator Reacts to Market Conditions
- Normal Market Conditions
Certain factors or sectors often stay at the top rank. For example, during the rallies at the start of 2024 and in May, the Momentum factor performed well, showing a risk-on market environment.
On the other hand, sectors at the bottom rank also tend to stay in specific positions.
- Market Tops
Capital flows within sectors slow down, and top ranks begin to change frequently. This may suggest a market turning point.
- Bear Markets or High Volatility
Rankings become more chaotic in these conditions. These large changes can help you understand market sentiment and the level of volatility.
= Way of using the Indicator
You can use this indicator in the following ways:
- To apply sector rotation strategies.
- To build positions after volatile markets calm down.
- To take long positions on strong elements (higher ranks) and short positions on weaker ones (lower ranks).
= Things to Keep in Mind
It’s a Lagging Indicator
This indicator calculates rankings using the past 20 days of data. It doesn’t provide signals for the future but is a tool for analyzing past performance. To predict the market, you should combine this with other tools or leading indicators.
However, since trends in capital flows often continue, this indicator can help you spot those trends.
= Customization
This indicator is set up for U.S. and Japanese stock markets. However, you can customize it for other markets by changing the ticker and label description in the script.

Momentum TrackerTo screen for momentum movers, one can filter for stocks that have made a noticeable move over a set period—this initial move defines the momentum or swing move. From this list of candidates, we can create a watchlist by selecting those showing a momentum pause, such as a pullback or consolidation, which later could set up for a continuation.
This Momentum Tracker Indicator serves as a study tool to visualize when stocks historically met these momentum conditions. It marks on the chart where a stock would have appeared on the screener, allowing us to review past momentum patterns and screener requirements.
Indicator Calculation
Bullish Momentum: Price is above the lowest point within the lookback period by the specified threshold percentage.
Bearish Momentum: Price is below the highest point within the lookback period by the specified threshold percentage.
The tool is customizable in terms of lookback period and percentage threshold to accommodate different trading styles and timeframes, allowing us to set criteria that align with specific hold times and momentum requirements.

X-Force Selector中文說明
X-Force 篩選者 是基於 Mark Minervini 概念設計的強勢標的篩選指標，旨在幫助交易者捕捉市場中的極端強勢標的。此指標運用多重篩選條件，使交易者能在價格達到特定關鍵位置時精準進場，專注於上漲動能強勁、突破阻力較小的標的。
指標篩選條件
100% 關鍵價位：當價格位於365根K棒的最低點的100%之上時，顯示該標的處於強勢區域，具備顯著的上漲動能。
25% 高點價位：同時，當價格位於365根K棒的高點以下25%之上時，代表該標的上方阻力較小，是一個潛在的突破信號。
滿足以上兩個條件的標的才會被視為進場機會，這符合 Minervini 所強調的「專注於強勢標的」的策略。Minervini 的概念強調當標的價格突破關鍵價位時，可能帶來更高的回報潛力，且風險相對較小。
加密貨幣與時間周期的應用
在加密貨幣交易中，1小時到4小時的小時間框架適合使用100%、66%、33%這些百分比範圍參數，以反映市場的高波動特性。對於更短周期，建議進一步縮小百分比，以提高指標對短期波動的敏感度，並增強篩選結果的準確性。
靈活的篩選與戰警風格
此指標的設計結合了 Minervini 的概念和戰警風格，旨在精準鎖定極具潛力的突破標的。X-Force 篩選者適合追隨趨勢的交易者，尤其是熱衷於 Mark Minervini 策略的投資者，使交易者能夠專注於市場中最具上漲動能的標的，實現更精確的進場決策。
English Description
X-Force Selector is a powerful trend-filtering indicator inspired by Mark Minervini’s trading concepts, designed to help traders capture assets with extreme strength in the market. By applying multiple filtering criteria, this indicator enables precise entry decisions when price reaches specific key levels, focusing on assets with strong upward momentum and minimal resistance.
Indicator Selection Criteria
100% Key Price Level: When the price is above 100% of the lowest low over the past 365 bars, it indicates the asset is in a strong zone with substantial upward momentum.
25% High Price Level: Additionally, when the price is within 25% below the 365-bar high, it signals reduced resistance above, indicating potential for a breakout.
Assets meeting both criteria are considered potential entry opportunities, aligning with Minervini's strategy of “focusing on strong assets.” Minervini’s concept emphasizes capturing high-potential assets as they break through critical levels, aiming for higher returns with relatively low risk.
Application to Cryptocurrency and Timeframes
In cryptocurrency trading, shorter timeframes such as 1H to 4H are well-suited for the 100%, 66%, and 33% thresholds, reflecting the high volatility of crypto markets. For even smaller timeframes, it is recommended to reduce these percentages to enhance the indicator’s sensitivity to short-term fluctuations, improving the accuracy of filtered results.
Flexible Filtering with a Battle-Ready Style
With a design inspired by Minervini's concepts and a battle-ready scanning approach, the X-Force Selector precisely locks onto high-potential breakout candidates. This indicator is ideal for trend-following traders, especially those applying Mark Minervini’s strategies, enabling them to concentrate on assets with the strongest upward momentum for precise entry decisions.
Long Short MomentumThis indicator is designed to visualize short-term and long-term momentum trends.The indicator calculates two momentum lines based on customizable lengths: a short momentum (Short Momentum) over a smaller period and a long momentum (Long Momentum) over a longer period. These lines are plotted relative to the chosen price source, typically the closing price.
The histogram, colored dynamically based on momentum direction, gives visual cues:
Green: Both short and long momentum are positive, indicating an upward trend.
Red: Both are negative, indicating a downward trend.
Gray: Mixed momentum, suggesting potential trend indecision.
The Most Powerful TQQQ EMA Crossover Trend Trading StrategyTQQQ EMA Crossover Strategy Indicator
Meta Title: TQQQ EMA Crossover Strategy - Enhance Your Trading with Effective Signals
Meta Description: Discover the TQQQ EMA Crossover Strategy, designed to optimize trading decisions with fast and slow EMA crossovers. Learn how to effectively use this powerful indicator for better trading results.
Key Features
The TQQQ EMA Crossover Strategy is a powerful trading tool that utilizes Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to identify potential entry and exit points in the market. Key features of this indicator include:
**Fast and Slow EMAs:** The strategy incorporates two EMAs, allowing traders to capture short-term trends while filtering out market noise.

**Scalping Opportunities:** The strategy is particularly effective for scalping in volatile markets, allowing traders to make quick profits on small price movements.
**Swing Trading:** Longer-term traders can use this strategy to identify significant trend reversals and capitalize on larger price swings.
**Risk Management:** By incorporating customizable stop loss and take profit levels, traders can manage their risk effectively while maximizing potential returns.
How Multiple Indicators Work Together
While this strategy primarily relies on EMAs, it can be enhanced by integrating additional indicators such as:
- **Relative Strength Index (RSI):** To confirm overbought or oversold conditions before entering trades.
- **Volume Indicators:** To validate breakout signals, ensuring that price movements are supported by sufficient trading volume.
Combining these indicators provides a more comprehensive view of market dynamics, increasing the reliability of trade signals generated by the EMA crossover.
Unique Aspects
What sets this indicator apart is its simplicity combined with effectiveness. The reliance on EMAs allows for smoother signals compared to traditional moving averages, reducing false signals often associated with choppy price action. Additionally, the ability to customize parameters ensures that traders can adapt the strategy to fit their unique trading styles and risk tolerance.

To effectively utilize the TQQQ EMA Crossover Strategy:
1. **Add the Indicator:** Load the script onto your TradingView chart.
2. **Set Parameters:** Adjust the fast and slow EMA lengths according to your trading preferences.
3. **Monitor Signals:** Watch for crossover points; enter trades based on buy/sell signals generated by the indicator.
4. **Implement Risk Management:** Set your stop loss and take profit levels using the provided multipliers.
Regularly review your trading performance and adjust parameters as necessary to optimize results.
Customization
The TQQQ EMA Crossover Strategy allows for extensive customization:
- **EMA Lengths:** Change the default lengths of both fast and slow EMAs to suit different time frames or market conditions.
- **Take Profit/Stop Loss Multipliers:** Adjust these values to align with your risk management strategy. For instance, increasing the take profit multiplier may yield larger gains but could also increase exposure to market fluctuations.
This flexibility makes it suitable for various trading styles, from aggressive scalpers to conservative swing traders.
Conclusion
The TQQQ EMA Crossover Strategy is an effective tool for traders seeking an edge in their trading endeavors.

Z-Score RSI StrategyOverview
The Z-Score RSI Indicator is an experimental take on momentum analysis. By applying the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to a Z-score of price data, it measures how far prices deviate from their mean, scaled by standard deviation. This isn’t your traditional use of RSI, which is typically based on price data alone. Nevertheless, this unconventional approach can yield unique insights into market trends and potential reversals.
Theory and Interpretation
The RSI calculates the balance between average gains and losses over a set period, outputting values from 0 to 100. Typically, people look at the overbought or oversold levels to identify momentum extremes that might be likely to lead to a reversal. However, I’ve often found that RSI can be effective for trend-following when observing the crossover of its moving average with the midline or the crossover of the RSI with its own moving average. These crossovers can provide useful trend signals in various market conditions.
By combining RSI with a Z-score of price, this indicator estimates the relative strength of the price’s distance from its mean. Positive Z-score trends may signal a potential for higher-than-average prices in the near future (scaled by the standard deviation), while negative trends suggest the opposite. Essentially, when the Z-Score RSI indicates a trend, it reflects that the Z-score (the distance between the average and current price) is likely to continue moving in the trend’s direction. Generally, this signals a potential price movement, though it’s important to note that this could also occur if there’s a shift in the mean or standard deviation, rather than a meaningful change in price itself.
While the Z-Score RSI could be an insightful addition to a comprehensive trading system, it should be interpreted carefully. Mean shifts may validate the indicator’s predictions without necessarily indicating any notable price change, meaning it’s best used in tandem with other indicators or strategies.
Recommendations
Before putting this indicator to use, conduct thorough backtesting and avoid overfitting. The added parameters allow fine-tuning to fit various assets, but be careful not to optimize purely for the highest historical returns. Doing so may create an overly tailored strategy that performs well in backtests but fails in live markets. Keep it balanced and look for robust performance across multiple scenarios, as overfitting is likely to lead to disappointing real-world results.
COT Trendfilter + SignalsCOT Trendfilter + Signals Indicator
Data Processing and Usage: The COT indicator processes Commitments of Traders (COT) data provided by the CFTC. Users can select from various participant groups, including Commercials, Large Speculators, and Small Speculators. However, it is important to note that the signal logic of the indicator is exclusively applicable to the net positions of Commercials. This is because Commercials tend to trade contrarily, meaning their trading decisions often run against the prevailing market trend.
Functionality of the Indicators
1. Cycle COT
The cCOT is an enhanced version of the classic RSI. It incorporates additional smoothing based on market vibrations, along with adaptive upper and lower bands based on cyclical memory. The cCOT uses the current dominant cycle length as input and highlights trading signals when the signal line crosses above or below the adaptive bands. Compared to the standard RSI, the cCOT responds more quickly to market movements.
For detailed information on the cCOT, please refer to Chapter 4 "Fine tuning technical indicators" in the book "Decoding the Hidden Market Rhythm, Part 1" by Lars von Thienen.
2. Adaptive Ultra-Smooth Momentum Indicator
The Adaptive Ultra-Smooth Momentum Indicator (CSI) provides an optimized momentum oscillator based on the current dominant cycle. It addresses three common issues with standard indicators: excessive false signals, signal delay, and the need for length adjustments. The CSI offers adaptive smoothing, zero delay, and accurate detection of turning points.
For further information about the CSI, please refer to Chapter 10 "Cycle Swing Indicator: Trading the swing of the dominant cycle" in the book "Decoding the Hidden Market Rhythm, Part 1" by Lars von Thienen.
Signals and Validation
The indicator generates various trading signals:
cCOT:
A buy signal is indicated by an airplane emoji (🛫), while a sell signal is marked by another airplane emoji (🛬).
COT Momentum:
A buy signal is shown by the symbol “∿” in green, while a sell signal is represented by the same symbol in red.
Standard COT Index (Willco):
A buy signal is depicted by a “B” (in green), while a sell signal is shown by an “S” (in red).
Additionally, the validity of the signals is checked. If a previous signal becomes invalid in the following week, it is marked with a gray “x,” indicating that these signals may not be reliable. Users can also switch between net positions, long, and short to analyze the most relevant data for them.
Background Color
The color in the channel can indicate the strength of the Commercials' long-term trend. A channel background color signals an active long-, short-term trend, while no color suggests that there is no clear long-term trend present.
Strange behavior
When only a sharp spike is displayed and the rest is flat, the length settings of the Cycle Length Index should be increased. This can occur when the length is too short, resulting in an unusual spike to properly generate the channel.
Disclaimer
The use of this indicator and the generated signals is at your own risk. The author assumes no responsibility for trading decisions made based on these signals. Please be aware that trading financial instruments involves risks.
SuperATR 7-Step Profit - Strategy [presentTrading] Long time no see!
█ Introduction and How It Is Different
The SuperATR 7-Step Profit Strategy is a multi-layered trading approach that integrates adaptive Average True Range (ATR) calculations with momentum-based trend detection. What sets this strategy apart is its sophisticated 7-step take-profit mechanism, which combines four ATR-based exit levels and three fixed percentage levels. This hybrid approach allows traders to dynamically adjust to market volatility while systematically capturing profits in both long and short market positions.
Traditional trading strategies often rely on static indicators or single-layered exit strategies, which may not adapt well to changing market conditions. The SuperATR 7-Step Profit Strategy addresses this limitation by:
- Using Adaptive ATR: Enhances the standard ATR by making it responsive to current market momentum.
- Incorporating Momentum-Based Trend Detection: Identifies stronger trends with higher probability of continuation.
- Employing a Multi-Step Take-Profit System: Allows for gradual profit-taking at predetermined levels, optimizing returns while minimizing risk.
BTCUSD 6hr Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The strategy revolves around detecting strong market trends and capitalizing on them using an adaptive ATR and momentum indicators. Below is a detailed breakdown of each component of the strategy.
🔶 1. True Range Calculation with Enhanced Volatility Detection
The True Range (TR) measures market volatility by considering the most significant price movements. The enhanced TR is calculated as:
TR = Max
Where:
High and Low are the current bar's high and low prices.
Previous Close is the closing price of the previous bar.
Abs denotes the absolute value.
Max selects the maximum value among the three calculations.
🔶 2. Momentum Factor Calculation
To make the ATR adaptive, the strategy incorporates a Momentum Factor (MF), which adjusts the ATR based on recent price movements.
Momentum = Close - Close
Stdev_Close = Standard Deviation of Close over n periods
Normalized_Momentum = Momentum / Stdev_Close (if Stdev_Close ≠ 0)
Momentum_Factor = Abs(Normalized_Momentum)
Where:
Close is the current closing price.
n is the momentum_period, a user-defined input (default is 7).
Standard Deviation measures the dispersion of closing prices over n periods.
Abs ensures the momentum factor is always positive.
🔶 3. Adaptive ATR Calculation
The Adaptive ATR (AATR) adjusts the traditional ATR based on the Momentum Factor, making it more responsive during volatile periods and smoother during consolidation.
Short_ATR = SMA(True Range, short_period)
Long_ATR = SMA(True Range, long_period)
Adaptive_ATR = /
Where:
SMA is the Simple Moving Average.
short_period and long_period are user-defined inputs (defaults are 3 and 7, respectively).
🔶 4. Trend Strength Calculation
The strategy quantifies the strength of the trend to filter out weak signals.
Price_Change = Close - Close
ATR_Multiple = Price_Change / Adaptive_ATR (if Adaptive_ATR ≠ 0)
Trend_Strength = SMA(ATR_Multiple, n)
🔶 5. Trend Signal Determination
If (Short_MA > Long_MA) AND (Trend_Strength > Trend_Strength_Threshold):
Trend_Signal = 1 (Strong Uptrend)
Elif (Short_MA < Long_MA) AND (Trend_Strength < -Trend_Strength_Threshold):
Trend_Signal = -1 (Strong Downtrend)
Else:
Trend_Signal = 0 (No Clear Trend)
🔶 6. Trend Confirmation with Price Action
Adaptive_ATR_SMA = SMA(Adaptive_ATR, atr_sma_period)
If (Trend_Signal == 1) AND (Close > Short_MA) AND (Adaptive_ATR > Adaptive_ATR_SMA):
Trend_Confirmed = True
Elif (Trend_Signal == -1) AND (Close < Short_MA) AND (Adaptive_ATR > Adaptive_ATR_SMA):
Trend_Confirmed = True
Else:
Trend_Confirmed = False

Momentum Flow OscillatorIndicator Overview: Momentum Flow Oscillator (MFO)
The Momentum Flow Oscillator (MFO) is a powerful tool for detecting shifts in market momentum. It combines a momentum-based calculation with a dynamic ribbon of moving averages to help traders identify trend reversals, continuations, and market consolidations. The MFO offers a clear visual representation of market conditions and assists traders in making informed decisions based on the relationship between momentum and its underlying trends.
The MFO line (green) is plotted alongside a Base Line (black) and a series of moving averages (ribbon). The ribbon is composed of five moving averages of different lengths, which allow traders to spot trends, momentum shifts, and potential trade opportunities. It is important to note that the ribbon tends to be a slower-moving component of the indicator, providing long-term trend signals rather than quick, reactive signals.
Components of the Indicator:
Momentum Flow Index (MFI):
This green line is the core of the indicator, representing market momentum derived from price and volume action. It reacts to changes in market dynamics and helps identify periods of strength and weakness.
Base Line (Black Line):
The black line is a 200-period moving average of the momentum flow. This acts as a dynamic support/resistance level for the MFI, smoothing out the price action over a longer period and providing a clearer trend signal.
Moving Averages Ribbon:
The ribbon is composed of five moving averages with different periods (100, 125, 150, 175, and 200). These moving averages create a visual "ribbon" that helps identify trends and consolidations, allowing traders to visualize the market’s momentum over different time frames.
The ribbon acts as a slower-moving indicator, helping to confirm long-term trends. Traders should keep in mind that the ribbon provides signals with a lag, making it ideal for trend-following rather than quick, short-term trades.
How to Use the Momentum Flow Oscillator (MFO):
1. Bullish Momentum Signals:
When the MFI (green line) crosses above the Base Line and the SMA ribbon, it indicates increasing momentum in the market. This signal is particularly strong when the MFI stays above the ribbon for an extended period.
Trade Example: Traders can use this as a buy signal when the MFI crosses above the ribbon, indicating that momentum is shifting to the upside. If the ribbon starts fanning out, it suggests the market is trending strongly upward, which may support a long position.
2. Bearish Momentum Signals:
When the MFI crosses below the Base Line and the SMA ribbon, it signals decreasing momentum. This is a bearish sign, indicating that the market may be preparing for a downturn.
Trade Example: A trader can use the cross below the ribbon as a sell signal or consider entering a short position when momentum weakens. If the ribbon fans out in a downward direction, it suggests the market is trending lower, and a short position may be warranted.
3. Neutral or Caution Signals:
When the MFI fluctuates within the SMA ribbon or crosses in and out frequently, the market may be in a consolidation phase or range-bound. In this situation, the trend is uncertain, and momentum is not strong enough to break decisively in either direction.
Trade Example: Traders may want to avoid taking new positions when the MFI is moving sideways within the ribbon, as this indicates indecision in the market. Waiting for a breakout above or below the ribbon can provide clearer signals for trading.
4. Trend Confirmation with Ribbon Expansion:
When the SMA ribbon expands, it indicates strong momentum in the direction of the trend. A clear widening of the ribbon with the MFI above (bullish) or below (bearish) signals a strong, sustainable trend.
Trade Example: As the ribbon expands, it confirms the strength of the trend, and traders can use this as confirmation to either hold an existing position or add to it.
5. Reversal Signals from Ribbon Contraction:
When the SMA ribbon contracts or the MFI crosses back and forth over the Base Line, it signals a potential reversal or a weakening of the existing trend.
Trade Example: In these cases, traders might consider closing positions or preparing for a reversal, as the contraction often signals a potential breakout in the opposite direction.
Example of Using the MFO in Trading:
In the provided chart image, you can see the MFI moving below the Base Line and the SMA ribbon for an extended period. This indicates bearish momentum, and traders could use this signal to enter a short position or avoid long positions until the MFI shows signs of crossing back above the ribbon. When the MFI crosses above the ribbon, it can signal a potential bullish reversal, indicating it might be time to re-enter long positions or close short positions.
Additional Trading Tips:
Combine with Other Indicators: The MFO can be used in combination with other technical tools such as volume-based indicators, trendlines, or oscillators like RSI or MACD to confirm signals and increase accuracy.
Use Different Time Frames: Traders can apply the MFO on different time frames (e.g., daily, weekly) to capture both short-term and long-term trends. Crossovers in longer time frames provide stronger confirmation of trend direction.
Conservative Entry: For more conservative traders, waiting for the MFI to fully cross above or below the ribbon (rather than within it) can help filter out false signals and avoid entering trades during consolidation phases.
Conclusion:
The Momentum Flow Oscillator offers traders a versatile and visual approach to gauging market momentum and trend strength. By observing the interaction between the MFI and the SMA ribbon, traders can spot trend changes early, confirm existing trends, and stay out of choppy, sideways markets. Keep in mind that the ribbon is a slower-moving part of the indicator—perfect for trend-following strategies but less ideal for fast, reactive trades. Use this indicator to increase your confidence in your trading decisions and improve your ability to capture trends in the market.

Pip hunter 1-Minute Scalping Strategy [manesisnet]NOTE: This is my first attempt to write an indicator using pine script and it's not recommended for serious trading, just use it for your own research or feel free to create your own versions based on the below.
Overview: The "1-Minute Scalping Strategy" is a custom TradingView indicator designed for short-term traders looking to capitalize on quick price movements in the 1-minute timeframe. This strategy combines moving averages and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to generate buy and sell signals while filtering out potential false entries by confirming trends on a higher timeframe.
How It Works:
Moving Averages:
The indicator uses two Simple Moving Averages (SMAs):
A fast SMA (5-period) for short-term price movements.
A slow SMA (20-period) to identify the overall trend.
Buy signals are generated when the fast SMA crosses above the slow SMA, indicating bullish momentum.
Sell signals occur when the fast SMA crosses below the slow SMA, indicating bearish momentum.
Higher Time Frame Confirmation:
To enhance the accuracy of the signals, the strategy checks the trend on a higher timeframe (default is 5 minutes).
A buy signal is only valid if the current price is above the higher timeframe SMA, confirming that the overall trend is bullish.
A sell signal is only valid if the current price is below the higher timeframe SMA, confirming a bearish trend.
This confirmation helps avoid false breakouts and ensures that trades are aligned with the prevailing market direction.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
The RSI is used to assess market momentum and potential reversal points.
The indicator calculates a 14-period RSI to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
For buy signals, the RSI must be below 60 (indicating the market is not overbought).
For sell signals, the RSI must be above 40 (indicating the market is not oversold).
This helps to filter out trades that might occur during extreme market conditions.
Visual Representation:
The fast SMA (5-period) is plotted in blue, the slow SMA (20-period) in red, and the higher timeframe SMA in orange.
Buy signals are indicated with a green label below the bar, while sell signals are indicated with a red label above the bar.
This visual representation allows traders to quickly identify potential entry points.
Alerts:
The script includes alert conditions for buy and sell signals, enabling traders to receive notifications when the conditions for entering trades are met.
Kurutoga Histogram with HTF and LTF
Kurutoga Histogram:
The Kurutoga Histogram is a technical analysis indicator designed to measure price divergence from the 50% level of a recent price range. By calculating how far the current price is from the midpoint of a selected base length of candles, the histogram provides insight into the momentum, strength, and potential reversals in the market. Additionally, it can be applied across multiple timeframes to provide a comprehensive view of both short- and long-term market dynamics.
Key Components:
Base Length:
The base length is the number of candles (bars) over which the high and low prices are observed. The default base length is typically 14 periods, but it can be adjusted according to the trader's preference.
This base length defines the range from which the 50% level, or midpoint, is calculated.
50% Level (Midpoint):
The midpoint is the average of the highest high and the lowest low over the selected base length. This 50% level acts as an equilibrium point around which the price fluctuates.
Formula:
Midpoint = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2
The price’s distance from this midpoint is an indicator of how strong the current trend or divergence is.
Price Divergence:
The main calculation of the histogram is the difference between the current closing price and the midpoint of the price range.
Formula:
Divergence = Close Price − Midpoint
A positive divergence (price above the midpoint) indicates bullish strength, while a negative divergence (price below the midpoint) indicates bearish strength.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
The Kurutoga Histogram can be applied to both the current timeframe and a higher timeframe (HTF), allowing traders to gauge price movement in both short-term and long-term contexts.
By comparing the histograms of multiple timeframes, traders can determine if there is alignment (confluence) between trends, which can strengthen trade signals or provide additional confirmation.
Color-Coded Histogram:
Blue Bars (Positive Divergence): Represent that the price is above the 50% level, indicating bullish momentum. Taller blue bars suggest stronger upward momentum, while shrinking bars suggest weakening strength.
Red Bars (Negative Divergence): Represent that the price is below the 50% level, indicating bearish momentum. Taller red bars suggest stronger downward momentum, while shrinking bars suggest a potential reversal or consolidation.
The histogram’s color intensity and transparency can be adjusted to enhance the visual effect, distinguishing between current timeframe (LTF) and higher timeframe (HTF) divergence.
Interpretation:
Bullish Signals: When the histogram bars are blue and growing, the price is gaining momentum above the midpoint of its recent range. This could signal an ongoing uptrend.
Bearish Signals: When the histogram bars are red and growing, the price is gaining momentum below the midpoint, signaling an ongoing downtrend.
Momentum Shifts: When the histogram bars shrink in size (whether blue or red), it could indicate that the current trend is losing strength and may reverse or enter consolidation.
Neutral or Sideways Movement: When the histogram bars hover around zero, it means the price is trading near the midpoint of its recent range, often signaling a lack of strong momentum in either direction.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence:
When the current timeframe (LTF) histogram aligns with the higher timeframe (HTF) histogram (e.g., both are showing strong bullish or bearish divergence), it may provide stronger confirmation of the trend's strength.
Divergence between timeframes (e.g., bullish on LTF but bearish on HTF) may suggest that price movements on lower timeframes are not yet reflected in the broader trend, signaling caution.
Applications:
Trend Identification: The Kurutoga Histogram is highly useful for detecting when the price is trending away from its equilibrium point, providing insight into the strength of ongoing trends.
Momentum Analysis: By measuring the divergence from the 50% level, the histogram helps traders identify when momentum is increasing or decreasing.
Reversal Detection: Shrinking histogram bars can signal weakening momentum, which often precedes trend reversals.
Consolidation and Breakouts: When the histogram remains near zero for an extended period, it suggests consolidation, which often precedes a breakout in either direction.
Advantages:
Clear Visuals: The use of a color-coded histogram makes it easy to visually assess whether the market is gaining bullish or bearish momentum.
Multi-Timeframe Utility: The ability to compare current timeframe signals with higher timeframe signals adds an extra layer of confirmation, reducing false signals.
Dynamic Adjustment: By adjusting the base length, traders can fine-tune the sensitivity of the indicator to match different markets or trading styles.
Limitations:
Lagging Indicator: Like most divergence indicators, the Kurutoga Histogram may lag slightly behind actual price movements, especially during fast, volatile markets.
Requires Confirmation: This indicator works best when used in conjunction with other technical tools like moving averages, support/resistance levels, or volume indicators, to avoid relying on divergence alone.
Conclusion:
The Kurutoga Histogram is a versatile and visually intuitive tool for measuring price divergence from a key equilibrium point, helping traders to assess the strength of trends and identify potential reversal points. Its use across multiple timeframes provides deeper insights, making it a valuable addition to any trading strategy that emphasizes momentum and trend following.
Trend Following Regression CloudTrend Following Regression Cloud Indicator
The Trend Following Regression Cloud is a versatile trading tool designed to help you effortlessly identify the market's prevailing trend. By analyzing price movements over multiple time frames, it provides a clear visual representation of whether the market is trending upwards or downwards.
How It Works:
- Adaptive Analysis: The indicator calculates linear regression lines over various periods ranging from short-term to long-term (e.g., 10, 20, 50, up to 500 periods). This means it adapts quickly to recent market changes, capturing new trends as they develop.
- Noise Reduction: By comparing and weighting the slopes of these regression lines, it filters out insignificant price fluctuations (market noise). This ensures that the signals you receive are more reliable and less prone to false alarms.
- Cloud Calculation: The cloud is generated by first calculating the slopes of multiple linear regression lines over different lengths. The differences between the slopes of shorter-term and longer-term regressions are then computed and weighted by their respective lengths. By summing up these weighted differences, the indicator produces a "total distance" value. This value is applied to a baseline (such as a 100-period simple moving average) to create the cloud line. The area between the baseline and the cloud line is filled, and its color changes based on whether the total distance is positive or negative, providing a visual cue of the market's trend direction.
- Visual Representation: The indicator plots two lines—a base line and a cloud line—creating a shaded area (the "cloud") between them. The color of this cloud changes based on market conditions:
- Green Cloud: Indicates that short-term trends are stronger than long-term trends, suggesting an upward market movement. This could be a good time to consider buying.
- Red Cloud: Signifies that the market may be trending downwards, as long-term trends overpower short-term ones. This could be an opportune moment to consider selling.
RoC Momentum CycleRoC Momentum Cycles (RMC) is derived from RoC (Rate of Change) indicator.
Motivation behind RMC: Addressing RoC’s Shortcomings
While the Rate of Change (RoC) indicator is a valuable tool for assessing momentum, it has notable limitations that traders must be aware of. One of the primary challenges with the traditional RoC is its sensitivity to price fluctuations, which can lead to false signals in volatile markets. This often results in premature entries or exits, impacting trading performance.
By smoothing out the RoC calculations and focusing on more consistent signal generation (using SMA on smoothed RoC), RMC offers a more consistent representation of price trends.
Momentum Cycles
RMC helps visualize momentum cycles in a much better way compared to RoC.
Long Momentum Cycle : A cross-over of smoothed RoC (blue line) above averaged signal (orange line) below zero marks start of a new potential upside cycle which ends when the blue line comes back to zero line from above.
Short Momentum Cycle : A cross-under of blue line below orange line above zero marks beginning of a potential downside cycle which ends when the blue line comes back to zero from below.
