Cumulative VWAP and EMA with Ichimoku and volume (v3.0)calculated by using vwap to make Lines, SMA, EMA 14, 26, 34, 89, 147, 200, 258, 369, 610, then select and combine the most responsive lines and generelate a filled band to express the range of distortion before price start changing its direction of responses.
Then by that calculated out the 2 upper and lower bands based on the comcept of bollinger band to create a "no trade zone " that used for amatuers to avoid trading if no experiences.
Then wait for ALMA line to harmonic aglined with upper no trading zone line to start trading. If ALMA line aline with No trad zone top, turn green color, and above the balance zone, then go long every time price hit back to ALMA line. then short for versa.
IF price get into no trade zone, non-exp trader should not trade, pro-trader can observe the balance space to take a position same direction with the ALMA line and the no trade zone line.
If ALMA line is inside the no trade zone, then don't trade.
Just simple it is.

Triple HMA Colored [Chichomax]Triple HMA Colored Indicator Description
The Triple HMA Colored indicator is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to enhance trend identification by displaying three Hull Moving Averages (HMAs) on your chart, each with fully customizable periods and dynamic color settings. This indicator is built on the refined HMA calculation method, which leverages weighted moving averages (WMAs) to generate smooth and responsive trend lines with minimal lag.
Key Features:
- Triple HMA Setup:
Displays three HMAs, each computed with different, user-configurable periods, enabling multi-timeframe analysis in a single indicator.
- Dynamic Color Coding:
Each HMA line is color-coded based on its directional movement. When the current HMA value exceeds the previous value, the line is drawn in the designated "up" color, and when it falls below, it switches to the "down" color. This provides immediate visual cues for trend shifts.
- Customizable Inputs:
Users can adjust the period lengths for each of the three HMAs and select from six different color options (two for each HMA) directly from the indicator’s settings panel, ensuring that the tool can be tailored to match various trading strategies and visual preferences.
- Efficient Trend Detection:
By combining the speed of WMAs with the smoothness of the Hull Moving Average, this indicator offers a reliable method to detect market momentum changes, making it a valuable asset for both trend-following and counter-trend strategies.
Ideal for traders who demand flexibility and clarity in their chart analysis, the Triple HMA Colored indicator simplifies the process of tracking market trends across multiple timeframes while providing clear, visual signals for potential entry and exit points.
[TehThomas] - MA Cross with DisplacementThis TradingView script, "MA Cross with Displacement," is designed to detect potential long and short trade opportunities based on moving average (MA) crossovers combined with price displacement confirmation. The script utilizes two simple moving averages (SMA) and highlights potential trade signals when a crossover occurs alongside a strong price movement (displacement).
Why This Indicator is Useful
This indicator enhances the standard moving average crossover strategy by incorporating a displacement condition, making trade signals more reliable. Many traders rely on moving average crossovers to determine trend reversals, but false signals often occur due to minor price fluctuations. By requiring a significant price movement (displacement), this indicator helps filter out weak or insignificant crossovers, leading to more high-probability trade opportunities.
How It Works
Calculates Two Moving Averages (MA)
The user can set two different MA periods:
MA 1 (blue line): Default period is 9 (shorter-term trend).
MA 2 (red line): Default period is 21 (longer-term trend).
These moving averages smooth out price fluctuations to identify overall trends.
Detects Crossovers
Bullish crossover: The blue MA crosses above the red MA + displacement candle → Potential long signal.
Example of bullish cross with displacement:
Bearish crossover: The blue MA crosses below the red MA + displacement candle → Potential short signal.
Example of bearish cross with displacement:
Confirms Displacement (Strong Price Move)
A price displacement threshold is used (default: 1.1% of the previous candle size).
For a valid trade signal, a crossover must occur alongside a strong price movement.
Bullish Displacement Condition: Price increased by more than the threshold.
Bearish Displacement Condition: Price decreased by more than the threshold.
Visual Indicators on the Chart
Bars are colored green when there is a bullish displacement.
Bars are colored red when there is a bearish displacement.
These color changes help traders quickly identify potential trade setups.
How to Use the Indicator
Add the Script to Your Chart
Copy and paste the script into TradingView's Pine Script Editor.
Click "Add to Chart" to activate it.
Customize the Settings
Adjust the moving average periods to fit your trading strategy.
Modify the displacement threshold based on market volatility.
Change the bar colors for better visualization.
Look for Trade Signals
Long Trade (Buy Signal)
The blue MA crosses above the red MA (bullish crossover).
A green bar appears, confirming bullish displacement.
Short Trade (Sell Signal)
The blue MA crosses below the red MA (bearish crossover).
A red bar appears, confirming bearish displacement.
Use in Conjunction with Other Indicators
This indicator works best when combined with support & resistance levels, RSI, MACD, or volume analysis to improve trade accuracy.
Final Thoughts
The MA Cross with Displacement Indicator improves the reliability of moving average crossovers by requiring strong price movements to confirm a trade signal. This helps traders avoid false breakouts and weak trends, making it a powerful tool for identifying high-probability trades.

Sniper TradingSniper Trader Indicator Overview
Sniper Trader is a comprehensive trading indicator designed to assist traders by providing valuable insights and alerting them to key market conditions. The indicator combines several technical analysis tools and provides customizable inputs for different strategies and needs.
Here’s a detailed breakdown of all the components and their functions in the Sniper Trader indicator:
1. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
The MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator that helps determine the strength and direction of the current trend. It consists of two lines:
MACD Line (Blue): Calculated by subtracting the long-term EMA (Exponential Moving Average) from the short-term EMA.
Signal Line (Red): The EMA of the MACD line, typically set to 9 periods.
What does it do?
Buy Signal: When the MACD line crosses above the signal line, it generates a buy signal.
Sell Signal: When the MACD line crosses below the signal line, it generates a sell signal.
Zero Line Crossings: Alerts are triggered when the MACD line crosses above or below the zero line.
2. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
The RSI is a momentum oscillator used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in the market.
Overbought Level (Red): The level above which the market might be considered overbought, typically set to 70.
Oversold Level (Green): The level below which the market might be considered oversold, typically set to 30.
What does it do?
Overbought Signal: When the RSI crosses above the overbought level, it’s considered a signal that the asset may be overbought.
Oversold Signal: When the RSI crosses below the oversold level, it’s considered a signal that the asset may be oversold.
3. ATR (Average True Range)
The ATR is a volatility indicator that measures the degree of price movement over a specific period (14 bars in this case). It provides insights into how volatile the market is.
What does it do?
The ATR value is plotted on the chart and provides a reference for potential market volatility. It's used to detect flat zones, where the price may not be moving significantly, potentially indicating a lack of trends.
4. Support and Resistance Zones
The Support and Resistance Zones are drawn by identifying key swing highs and lows over a user-defined look-back period.
Support Zone (Green): Identifies areas where the price has previously bounced upwards.
Resistance Zone (Red): Identifies areas where the price has previously been rejected or reversed.
What does it do?
The indicator uses swing highs and lows to define support and resistance zones and highlights these areas on the chart. This helps traders identify potential price reversal points.
5. Alarm Time
The Alarm Time feature allows you to set a custom time for the indicator to trigger an alarm. The time is based on Eastern Time and can be adjusted directly in the inputs tab.
What does it do?
It triggers an alert at a user-defined time (for example, 4 PM Eastern Time), helping traders close positions or take specific actions at a set time.
6. Market Condition Display
The Market Condition Display shows whether the market is in a Bullish, Bearish, or Flat state based on the MACD line’s position relative to the signal line.
Bullish (Green): The market is in an uptrend.
Bearish (Red): The market is in a downtrend.
Flat (Yellow): The market is in a range or consolidation phase.
7. Table for Key Information
The indicator includes a customizable table that displays the current market condition (Bull, Bear, Flat). The table is placed at a user-defined location (top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right), and the appearance of the table can be adjusted for text size and color.
8. Background Highlighting
Bullish Reversal: When the MACD line crosses above the signal line, the background is shaded green to highlight the potential for a trend reversal to the upside.
Bearish Reversal: When the MACD line crosses below the signal line, the background is shaded red to highlight the potential for a trend reversal to the downside.
Flat Zone: A flat zone is identified when volatility is low (ATR is below the average), and the background is shaded orange to signal periods of low market movement.
Key Features:
Customizable Time Inputs: Adjust the alarm time based on your local time zone.
User-Friendly Table: Easily view market conditions and adjust display settings.
Comprehensive Alerts: Receive alerts for MACD crossovers, RSI overbought/oversold conditions, flat zones, and the custom alarm time.

ATR BandsThe ATR Bands indicator is a volatility-based tool that plots dynamic support and resistance levels around the price using the Average True Range (ATR). It consists of two bands:
Upper Band: Calculated as current price + ATR, representing an upper volatility threshold.
Lower Band: Calculated as current price - ATR, serving as a lower volatility threshold.
Key Features:
✅ Measures Volatility: Expands and contracts based on market volatility.
✅ Dynamic Support & Resistance: Helps identify potential breakout or reversal zones.
✅ Customizable Smoothing: Supports multiple moving average methods (RMA, SMA, EMA, WMA) for ATR calculation.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation: If the price consistently touches or exceeds the upper band, it may indicate strong bullish momentum.
Reversal Signals: A price approaching the lower band may suggest a potential reversal or increased selling pressure.
Volatility Assessment: Wide bands indicate high volatility, while narrow bands suggest consolidation.
This indicator is useful for traders looking to incorporate volatility-based strategies into their trading decisions
Dynamic VWAP Levels (V1.0)The script calculates bands around the VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) using the Average True Range (ATR) to adjust the levels according to market reality. Buy and sell signals are generated when the price crosses these bands.
Customizable Parameters SmoothingLength (SmoothLength): The period used to smooth the levels. A higher value results in smoother bands that are less susceptible to rapid fluctuations.
Use EMA for smoothing?: Selects between using the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) or the Simple Moving Average (SMA) for smoothing.
ATR Length: The period used to calculate the ATR, which determines the frequency.
ATR Multiplier: A multiplier that adjusts the amplitude of the bands around the VWAP.
How the Script Works Calculating VWAP and Bands: The VWAP is calculated to obtain the volume weighted average price.
Bands are created around the VWAP by adding or subtracting a fraction of the ATR to account for the current market variation.
Smoothing Application: Price levels are smoothed to reduce market noise, allowing for better visualization of trends.
Signal Generation: Buy Signal: Generated when price crosses upwards the smoothed lower band (default dp7_smooth).
Sell Signal: Generated when price crosses downwards the smoothed upper band (default dp1_smooth).
Tillson T3 Moving Average (improved)T3 Moving Average – Advanced Smoothing for Trend Analysis
Overview
The Tillson T3 Moving Average (T3 MA) is a superior smoothing moving average that reduces lag while maintaining responsiveness to price changes. Unlike traditional moving averages such as SMA, EMA, or WMA, the T3 applies multiple levels of smoothing, making it more adaptive to market conditions.
How It Works
The T3 MA is an exponentially smoothed moving average with a factor that controls the level of smoothing. This multi-layered smoothing process allows it to:
✅ React faster than a standard EMA while still filtering out market noise.
✅ Smooth out price fluctuations better than SMA or WMA, reducing false signals.
✅ Reduce lag compared to traditional moving averages, making it useful for both trend identification and entry/exit decisions.
How to Use This Script
🔹 Trend Identification – Use T3 MA as a dynamic trend filter. Price above T3 signals an uptrend, while price below signals a downtrend.
🔹 Direction Signal – The direction of the T3 MA (i.e. sloping upwards or downwards) can itself be used as a signal. The script allows the MA line to be colored, so it's easier to spot.
🔹 Crossover Signals – Combine T3 with another moving average (e.g., a shorter T3 or EMA, SMA, etc.) to generate trade signals when they cross.
🔹 Support & Resistance – The T3 can act as dynamic support and resistance in trending markets.
Features of This Script
✅ Custom Source Selection – Apply T3 not just to price, but also to any indicator (e.g., RSI, volume, etc.).
✅ Customizable Length & Smoothing – Adjust how smooth and responsive the T3 MA is.
✅ Optional Color Changes – The T3 MA can dynamically change color based on trend direction, making it easier to read.
✅ Versatile for Any Strategy – Works well in trend-following, mean-reversion, and breakout trading systems.
This script is ideal for traders looking for a smoother, more adaptive moving average that reduces noise while remaining reactive to price action. 🚀
Uptrick: Alpha TrendIntroduction
Uptrick: Alpha Trend is a comprehensive technical analysis indicator designed to provide traders with detailed insights into market trends, momentum, and risk metrics. It adapts to various trading styles—from quick scalps to longer-term positions—by dynamically adjusting its calculations and visual elements. By combining multiple smoothing techniques, advanced color schemes, and customizable data tables, the indicator offers a holistic view of market behavior.
Originality
The Alpha Trend indicator distinguishes itself by blending established technical concepts with innovative adaptations. It employs three different smoothing techniques tailored to specific trading modes (Scalp, Swing, and Position), and it dynamically adjusts its parameters to match the chosen mode. The indicator also offers a wide range of color palettes and multiple on-screen tables that display key metrics. This unique combination of features, along with its ability to adapt in real time, sets it apart as a versatile tool for both novice and experienced traders.
Features
1. Multi-Mode Trend Line
The indicator automatically selects a smoothing method based on the trading mode:
- Scalp Mode uses the Hull Moving Average (HMA) for rapid responsiveness.
- Swing Mode employs the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) for balanced reactivity.
- Position Mode applies the Weighted Moving Average (WMA) for smoother, long-term trends.
Each method is chosen to best capture the price action dynamics appropriate to the trader’s timeframe.
2. Adaptive Momentum Thresholds
It tracks bullish and bearish momentum with counters that increment as the trend confirms directional movement. When these counters exceed a user-defined threshold, the indicator generates optional buy or sell signals. This approach helps filter out minor fluctuations and highlights significant market moves.
3. Gradient Fills
Two types of fills enhance visual clarity:
- Standard Gradient Fill displays ATR-based zones above and below the trend line, indicating potential bullish and bearish areas.
- Fading Gradient Fill creates a smooth transition between the trend line and the price, visually emphasizing the distance between them.
4. Bar Coloring and Signal Markers
The indicator can color-code bars based on market conditions—bullish, bearish, or neutral—allowing for immediate visual assessment. Additionally, signal markers such as buy and sell arrows are plotted when momentum thresholds are breached.
5. Comprehensive Data Tables
Uptrick: Alpha Trend offers several optional tables for detailed analysis:
- Insider Info: Displays key metrics like the current trend value, bullish/bearish momentum counts, and ATR.
- Indicator Metrics: Lists input settings such as trend length, damping, signal threshold, and net momentum.
- Market Analysis: Summarizes overall trend direction, trend strength, Sortino ratio, return, and volatility.
- Price & Trend Dynamics: Details price deviation from the trend, trend slope, and ATR ratio.
- Momentum & Volatility Insights: Presents RSI, standard deviation (volatility), and net momentum.
- Performance & Acceleration Metrics: Focuses on the Sortino ratio, trend acceleration, return, and trend strength.
Each table can be positioned flexibly on the chart, allowing traders to customize the layout according to their needs.
Why It Combines Specific Smoothing Techniques
Smoothing techniques are essential for filtering out market noise and revealing underlying trends. The indicator combines three smoothing methods for the following reasons:
- The Hull Moving Average (HMA) in Scalp Mode minimizes lag and responds quickly to price changes, which is critical for short-term trading.
- The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) in Swing Mode gives more weight to recent data, striking a balance between speed and smoothness. This makes it suitable for mid-term trend analysis.
- The Weighted Moving Average (WMA) in Position Mode smooths out short-term fluctuations, offering a clear view of longer-term trends and reducing the impact of transient market volatility.
By using these specific methods in their respective trading modes, the indicator ensures that the trend line is appropriately responsive for the intended time frame, enhancing decision-making while maintaining clarity.
Inputs
1. Trend Length (Default: 30)
Defines the lookback period for the smoothing calculation. A shorter trend length results in a more responsive line, while a longer length produces a smoother, less volatile trend.
2. Trend Damping (Default: 0.75)
Controls the degree of smoothing applied to the trend line. Lower values lead to a smoother curve, whereas higher values increase sensitivity to price fluctuations.
3. Signal Strength Threshold (Default: 5)
Specifies the number of consecutive bullish or bearish bars required to trigger a signal. Higher thresholds reduce the frequency of signals, focusing on stronger moves.
4. Enable Bar Coloring (Default: True)
Toggles whether each price bar is colored to indicate bullish, bearish, or neutral conditions.
5. Enable Signals (Default: True)
When enabled, this option plots buy or sell arrows on the chart once the momentum thresholds are met.
6. Enable Standard Gradient Fill (Default: False)
Activates ATR-based gradient fills around the trend line to visualize potential support and resistance zones.
7. Enable Fading Gradient Fill (Default: True)
Draws a gradual color transition between the trend line and the current price, emphasizing their divergence.
8. Trading Mode (Options: Scalp, Swing, Position)
Determines which smoothing method and ATR period to use, adapting the indicator’s behavior to short-term, medium-term, or long-term trading.
9. Table Position Inputs
Allows users to select from nine possible chart positions (top, middle, bottom; left, center, right) for each data table.
10. Show Table Booleans
Separate toggles control the display of each table (Insider Info, Indicator Metrics, Market Analysis, and the three Deep Tables), enabling a customized view of the data.

Calculations
1. Trend Line Methods
- Scalp Mode: Utilizes the Hull Moving Average (HMA), which computes two weighted moving averages (one at half the length and one at full length), subtracts them, and then applies a final weighted average based on the square root of the length. This method minimizes lag and increases responsiveness.
- Swing Mode: Uses the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which assigns greater weight to recent prices, thus balancing quick reaction with smoothness.
- Position Mode: Applies the Weighted Moving Average (WMA) to focus on longer-term trends by emphasizing the entire lookback period and reducing the impact of short-term volatility.
2. Momentum Tracking
The indicator maintains separate counters for bullish and bearish momentum. These counters increase as the trend confirms directional movement and reset when the trend reverses. When a counter exceeds the defined signal strength threshold, a corresponding signal (buy or sell) is triggered.
3. Volatility and ATR Zones
The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated using a period that adapts to the selected trading mode (shorter for Scalp, longer for Position). The ATR value is then used to define upper and lower zones around the trend line, highlighting the current level of market volatility.
4. Return and Trend Acceleration
- Return is calculated as the difference between the current and previous closing prices, providing a simple measure of price change.
- Trend Acceleration is derived from the change in the trend line’s movement (its first derivative) compared to the previous bar. This metric indicates whether the trend is gaining or losing momentum.
5. Sortino Ratio and Standard Deviation
- The Sortino Ratio measures risk-adjusted performance by comparing returns to downside volatility (only considering negative price changes).
- Standard Deviation is computed over the lookback period to assess the extent of price fluctuations, offering insights into market stability.
Usage
This indicator is suitable for various time frames and market instruments. Traders can enable or disable specific visual elements such as gradient fills, bar coloring, and signal markers based on their preference. For a minimalist approach, one might choose to display only the primary trend line. For a deeper analysis, enabling multiple tables can provide extensive data on momentum, volatility, trend dynamics, and risk metrics.
Important Note on Risk
Trading involves inherent risk, and no indicator can eliminate the uncertainty of the markets. Past performance is not indicative of future results. It is essential to use proper risk management, test any new tool thoroughly, and consult multiple sources or professional advice before making trading decisions.

Trade Quality Rating: signal rating from 1 to 5 starsOverview
The indicator is built to generate trading signals based on a combination of technical indicators and then assign each signal a quality rating from 1 to 5 stars. The idea is that the more filters that are met, the stronger (or higher quality) the signal is assumed to be. You can then use these quality ratings to decide which signals to act upon, keeping in mind that a higher-rated signal has more confirming factors.
Components of the Indicator
Simple Moving Averages (SMAs):
SMA9 and SMA20:
These two moving averages are used to detect short-term trend changes via crossovers. A bullish signal is generated when the SMA9 crosses above the SMA20, and a bearish signal when it crosses below.
SMA200 (on the current timeframe) & Daily SMA200:
The SMA200 on your current chart helps smooth out the price action.
The Daily SMA200 serves as a long-term trend filter. For a valid long signal, the price must be above the Daily SMA200, and vice versa for a short signal.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
The MACD is calculated using standard parameters (12, 26, 9).
It adds momentum confirmation to the signal. For a long trade, the MACD line should be above its signal line, and for a short trade, below.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
Calculated with a 14-period setting.
For long signals, the RSI must be above 50 (indicating upward momentum), while for short signals, it should be below 50.
This filter is one of the additional conditions that add to the quality rating.
Volume Filter:
A 20-period moving average of volume is computed.
The current volume must exceed this average, suggesting that there is enough market participation backing the move.
This is another extra filter that adds to the overall quality score.
ADX (Average Directional Index):
The ADX is manually calculated in the script (using a 14-period setting) to gauge the strength of the trend.
A value above 25 is considered to confirm that a strong trend is in place, making the signal more reliable.
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price):
The session VWAP is computed on a daily basis.
For long trades, the price should be above the VWAP, and for short trades, below.
This serves as a confirmation that the current price is moving in the right direction relative to the volume-weighted average.
Signal Generation and Quality Rating
Base Signal (1 Star):
The fundamental trade signal is generated when the SMA9/SMA20 crossover occurs, in combination with the MACD confirmation and the condition that the price is on the correct side of the Daily SMA200. This base signal provides a 1-star quality rating.
Additional Filters (Adding Extra Stars):
RSI Filter: Adds 1 extra star if the RSI condition is met (RSI > 50 for long or RSI < 50 for short).
Volume Filter: Adds 1 extra star if the current volume exceeds its 20-period moving average.
ADX Filter: Adds 1 extra star if the ADX value is above 25, confirming a strong trend.
VWAP Filter: Adds 1 extra star if the price is above the VWAP for long trades (or below for short trades).
When all filters are met, you get a 5-star rating (1 star base + 4 extra stars).
Display and Alerts:
The indicator plots your SMAs on the chart.
When a signal occurs, it places a label on the chart showing the trade direction ("BUY" or "SELL") along with the quality rating in stars.
Additionally, alert conditions are set up so that you can receive notifications when a valid signal (based on the base criteria) is generated.
How to Use This Indicator
Filtering Trades:
Use the quality rating as a visual guide. For instance, if you want to only act on the most reliable setups, you might decide to trade only signals that are rated 4 or 5 stars.
Manual Confirmation:
Even with a high star rating, you can perform your own final checks (e.g., checking price action or additional chart patterns) before entering a trade.
Backtesting and Adjustment:
Because market conditions differ, it’s advisable to backtest the indicator on your instrument of choice and adjust the parameters (such as the ADX threshold or the period for volume averaging) to better suit your trading style.
Conclusion
This 5-star system indicator is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of trade quality by integrating multiple technical filters into one visual signal. It helps filter out noise by ensuring that a trade signal not only meets a basic SMA and MACD condition but also aligns with volume, trend strength (ADX), and VWAP criteria. This multi-layered approach can lead to fewer but higher quality trades, allowing you to focus on setups that have more confluence.
Happy trading!
Multi-Timeframe VWMA chartThis "Multi-Timeframe VWMA Indicator" is a powerful tool for traders seeking to analyze price action across multiple timeframes using the Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA). Built in Pine Script v6, it overlays a customizable VWMA on your chart while displaying a table that tracks how your chosen price source (e.g., close, open, high, low) interacts with the VWMA across eight timeframes: 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, 1d, and 1w.
Key features include adjustable inputs: select your price source, set the VWMA length (default 20), pick the line color (default blue), adjust line width (default 2), and apply an offset (default 0, range -500 to 500) to shift the VWMA for precise alignment. The VWMA is plotted on the current chart timeframe, scaling naturally with price due to the overlay setting.
The table, positioned top-right, shows each timeframe’s status: an upward arrow (↑, green) if the source is above the VWMA, indicating bullish momentum, or a downward arrow (↓, red) if below, suggesting bearish pressure. Using request.security, it fetches data efficiently, making it ideal for multi-timeframe analysis. Perfect for traders wanting a clear, customizable view of VWMA-based trends.
