Student Wyckoff RS Symbol/MarketRelative Strength Indicator STUDENT WYCKOFF RS SYMBOL/MARKET
Description
The Relative Strength (RS) Indicator compares the price performance of the current financial instrument (e.g., a stock) against another instrument (e.g., an index or another stock). It is calculated by dividing the closing price of the first instrument by the closing price of the second, then multiplying by 100. This provides a percentage ratio that shows how one instrument outperforms or underperforms another. The indicator helps traders identify strong or weak assets, spot market leaders, or evaluate an asset’s performance relative to a benchmark.
Key Features
Relative Strength Calculation: Divides the closing price of the current instrument by the closing price of the second instrument and multiplies by 100 to express the ratio as a percentage.
Simple Moving Average (SMA): Applies a customizable Simple Moving Average (default period: 14) to smooth the data and highlight trends.
Visualization: Displays the Relative Strength as a blue line, the SMA as an orange line, and colors bars (blue for rising, red for falling) to indicate changes in relative strength.
Flexibility: Allows users to select the second instrument via an input field and adjust the SMA period.
Applications
Market Comparison: Assess whether a stock is outperforming an index (e.g., S&P 500 or MOEX) to identify strong assets for investment.
Sector Analysis: Compare stocks within a sector or against a sector ETF to pinpoint leaders.
Trend Analysis: Use the rise or fall of the RS line and its SMA to gauge the strength of an asset’s trend relative to another instrument.
Trade Timing: Bar coloring helps quickly identify changes in relative strength, aiding short-term trading decisions.
Interpretation
Rising RS: Indicates the first instrument is outperforming the second (e.g., a stock growing faster than an index).
Falling RS: Suggests the first instrument is underperforming.
SMA as a Trend Filter: If the RS line is above the SMA, it may signal strengthening performance; if below, weakening performance.
Settings
Instrument 2: Ticker of the second instrument (default: QQQ).
SMA Period: Period for the Simple Moving Average (default: 14).
Notes
The indicator works on any timeframe but requires accurate ticker input for the second instrument.
Ensure data for both instruments is available on the selected timeframe for precise analysis.

Future Value ProjectionFuture Value Projection with Actual CAGR
This indicator calculates the future value (FV) of the current ticker’s price using its historical Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR). It measures how much the price has grown over a chosen lookback period, derives the average annual growth rate, and then projects the current price forward into the future.
Formulae:
CAGR:
CAGR = ( PV_now / PV_past )^(1 / t) - 1
Future Value:
FV = PV_now × ( 1 + CAGR / n )^( n × T )
Where:
PV_now = Current price
PV_past = Price t years ago
t = Lookback period (years)
CAGR = Compound Annual Growth Rate
n = Compounding periods per year (1=annual, 12=monthly, 252=daily, etc.)
T = Projection horizon (years forward)
How it works:
Select a lookback period (e.g., 3 years).
The script finds the price from that time and computes the CAGR.
It then projects the current price forward by T years using the CAGR.
The chart shows:
Current price (blue)
Projected FV target (green)
A table with CAGR and projection details
Use case:
Helps investors and traders visualize long-term growth projections if the ticker continues growing at its historical pace.

FlowFusion Money Flow — FP + VWAP Drift + PVT (−100..+100)Title (ASCII only)
FlowFusion Money Flow — Flow Pressure + Rolling VWAP Drift + PVT (Normalized −100..+100)
Short Description
Original money-flow oscillator combining Flow Pressure, Rolling VWAP Drift, and PVT Momentum into one normalized score (−100..+100) with a signal line, thresholds, optional component plots, and ready-made alerts.
Full Description (meets “originality & usefulness”)
What’s original
FlowFusion Money Flow is not a generic mashup. It builds a single score from three complementary, volume-aware components that target different facets of order flow:

with a Signal = SMA(Score, sigLen). Thresholds mark strong accumulation/distribution zones.
How it works (step-by-step)
Compute FP, VWAP Drift, PVT Momentum.
Normalize each to the same
scale.
Weighted average → FlowFusion Score.
Smooth with a Signal line to reduce whipsaw.
Optional background shading when Score exceeds thresholds.
How to use
Direction filter:
Score > 0 favors longs; Score < 0 favors shorts.
Momentum turns:
Score crosses above Signal → setup for long; below → setup for short.
Strength zones:
Above Upper Threshold (default +40) = strong buy pressure; below Lower (−40) = strong sell pressure.
Confluence:
Best near S/R, trendlines, or HTF bias. For scalping on 1–5m, consider sigLen 9–13 and thresholds ±40 to ±50.
Alerts included: zero cross, zone entries, and Score/Signal crossovers.
Inputs (key)
fpLen (20): relative-volume lookback for Flow Pressure.
vwapLen (34): rolling VWAP window.
pvtLen (50): PVT z-score window.
sigLen (9): Signal smoothing.
Weights: wFP, wVWAP, wPVT to bias the blend.
Thresholds: upperBand / lowerBand (defaults +40/−40).
Display: toggle component plots and background shading.
Best practices
Trending markets: increase wVWAP (VWAP Drift) or widen thresholds.
Ranging markets: increase wFP and wPVT; take quicker profits.
News: wait for bar close confirmation or reduce size.
Data quality: use consistent volume feeds (especially in crypto).
Limitations
Oscillators can stay extreme in strong trends; use structure/trend filters.
Volume anomalies (illiquid pairs, API glitches) can distort signals—sanity-check with another venue when possible.

ForecastForecast (FC), indicator documentation
Type: Study, not a strategy
Primary timeframe: 1D chart, most plots and the on-chart table only render on daily bars
Inspiration: Robert Carver’s “forecast” concept from Advanced Futures Trading Strategies, using normalized, capped signals for comparability across markets
⸻
What the indicator does
FC builds a volatility-normalized momentum forecast for a chosen symbol, optionally versus a benchmark. It combines an EWMAC composite with a channel breakout composite, then caps the result to a common scale. You can run it in three data modes:
• Absolute: Forecast of the selected symbol
• Relative: Forecast of the ratio symbol / benchmark
• Combined: Average of Absolute and Relative
A compact table can summarize the current forecast, short-term direction on the forecast EMAs, correlation versus the benchmark, and ATR-scaled distances to common price EMAs.
⸻
PineScreener, relative-strength screening
This indicator is excellent for screening on relative strength in PineScreener, since the forecast is volatility-normalized and capped on a common scale.
Available PineScreener columns
PineScreener reads the plotted series. You will see at least these columns:
• FC, the capped forecast
• from EMA20, (price − EMA20) / ATR in ATR multiples
• from EMA50, (price − EMA50) / ATR in ATR multiples
• ATR, ATR as a percent of price
• Corr, weekly correlation with the chosen benchmark
Relative mode and Combined mode are recommended for cross-sectional screens. In Relative mode the calculation uses symbol / benchmark, so ensure the ratio ticker exists for your data source.
⸻
How it works, step by step
1. Volatility model
Compute exponentially weighted mean and variance of daily percent returns on D, annualize, optionally blend with a long lookback using 10y %, then convert to a price-scaled sigma.
2. EWMAC momentum, three legs
Daily legs: EMA(8) − EMA(32), EMA(16) − EMA(64), EMA(32) − EMA(128).
Divide by price-scaled sigma, multiply by leg scalars, cap to Cap = 20, average, then apply a small FDM factor.
3. Breakout momentum, three channels
Smoothed position inside 40, 80, and 160 day channels, each scaled, then averaged.
4. Composite forecast
Average the EWMAC composite and the breakout composite, then cap to ±20.
Relative mode runs the same logic on symbol / benchmark.
Combined mode averages Absolute and Relative composites.
5. Weekly correlation
Pearson correlation between weekly closes of the asset and the benchmark over a user-set length.
6. Direction overlay
Two EMAs on the forecast series plus optional green or red background by sign, and optional horizontal level shading around 0, ±5, ±10, ±15, ±20.
⸻
Plots
• FC, capped forecast on the daily chart
• 8-32 Abs, 8-32 Rel, single-leg EWMAC plus breakout view
• 8-32-128 Abs, 8-32-128 Rel, three-leg composite views
• from EMA20, from EMA50, (price − EMA) / ATR
• ATR, ATR as a percent of price
• Corr, weekly correlation with the benchmark
• Forecast EMA1 and EMA2, EMAs of the forecast with an optional fill
• Backgrounds and guide lines, optional sign-based background, optional 0, ±5, ±10, ±15, ±20 guides
Most plots and the table are gated by timeframe.isdaily. Set the chart to 1D to see them.
⸻
Inputs
Symbol selection
• Absolute, Relative, Combined
• Vs. benchmark for Relative mode and correlation, choices: SPY, QQQ, XLE, GLD
• Ticker or Freeform, for Freeform use full TradingView notation, for example NASDAQ:AAPL
Engine selection
• Include:
• 8-32-128, three EWMAC legs plus three breakouts
• 8-32, simplified view based on the 8-32 leg plus a 40-day breakout
EMA, applied to the forecast
• EMA1, EMA2, with line-width controls, plus color and opacity
Volatility
• Span, EW volatility span for daily returns
• 10y %, blend of long-run volatility
• Thresh, Too volatile, placeholders in this version
Background
• Horizontal bg, level shading, enabled by default
• Long BG, Hedge BG, colors and opacities
Show
• Table, Header, Direction, Gain, Extension
• Corr, Length for correlation row
Table settings
• Position, background, opacity, text size, text color
Lines
• 0-lines, 10-lines, 5-lines, level guides
⸻
Reading the outputs
• Forecast > 0, bullish tilt; Forecast < 0, bearish or hedge tilt
• ±10 and ±20 indicate strength on a uniform scale
• EMA1 vs EMA2 on the forecast, EMA1 above EMA2 suggests improving momentum
• Table rows, label colored by sign, current forecast value plus a green or red dot for the forecast EMA cross, optional daily return percent, weekly correlation, and ATR-scaled EMA9, EMA20, EMA50 distances
⸻
Data handling, repainting, and performance
• Daily and weekly series are fetched with request.security().
• Calculations use closed bars, values can update until the bar closes.
• No lookahead, historical values do not repaint.
• Weekly correlation updates during the week, it finalizes on weekly close.
• On intraday charts most visuals are hidden by design.
⸻
Good practice and limitations
• This is a research indicator, not a trading system.
• The fixed Cap = 20 keeps a common scale, extreme moves will be clipped.
• Relative mode depends on the ratio symbol / benchmark, ensure both legs have data for your feed.

Index Position Size Calculator for [US30 / US100 / SP500]What it does
This tool helps you size positions consistently for index trades on US30 (Dow Jones), NAS100 (Nasdaq-100), and SP500 (S&P 500). Enter your account balance, risk %, and your planned Entry / Stop-Loss / Target and the script calculates:
• Position Size (rounded to your lot/contract step)
• Risk-to-Reward (R/R)
• Potential P/L in USD based on your inputs
• Visual Entry / SL / TP lines with green/red zones and concise labels
Supported contract styles
Choose a preset for common products (e.g., CFD $1/pt, YM/NQ/ES futures, MYM/MNQ/MES micros) or override the economics yourself. You remain in control of the two key levers:
• $/point — how many dollars you gain/lose per 1 index point per contract/lot
• Point size — how many price units equal 1 index point on your chart (often 1.0, but some brokers use 0.1 or 0.5)
Inputs
• Account Balance ($) and Risk % per trade
• Index: US30 / NAS100 / SP500
• Contract: CFD / Futures (YM, NQ, ES) / Micros (MYM, MNQ, MES)
• $/point: auto from Contract or manual override
• Point size: auto from Index or manual override
• Position size step: rounding (e.g., 1 for futures, 0.01 for CFDs)
• Entry / SL / TP: typed values (snapped to tick), with on-chart zones and labels
• Display toggles for lines and labels
How the math works
• StopPoints = |Entry − SL| ÷ PointSize
• ProfitPoints = |TP − Entry| ÷ PointSize
• Position Size = (AccountBalance × Risk%) ÷ (StopPoints × $/point)
• R/R = ProfitPoints ÷ StopPoints
• Potential P/L = PositionSize × Points × $/point
How to use (quick start)
1. Select Index and Contract.
2. Confirm $/point and Point size match your broker’s specs.
3. Enter Entry / SL / TP for the trade idea.
4. Read the Position Size, R/R, and Potential P/L in the info box.
5. Adjust for fees, spreads, and slippage as needed.
Notes & limitations
• Broker symbols can vary. Always verify $/point and Point size for your instrument before risking capital.
• The script does not place orders and does not generate trade signals; it’s a sizing/visualization tool.
• Results can differ across brokers due to pricing, spreads, minimum lot sizes, and execution rules.
• Use on the intended indices; you’ll see a reminder if you load it elsewhere.
Changelog highlights
• Pine v6, constant-safe inputs, tick-snapping, global fills (no local-scope errors).
• Robust label handling and optional minimal chart markers.

A single score (0%–100%) per timeframe
Alignment tick when trend, structure, slope and momentum all agree
Use it to:
Frame bias top‑down (M→W→D→…→15m)
Time entries on your execution timeframe when the higher‑TF stack is aligned
Avoid counter‑trend traps when the table is mixed
2) Table anatomy (each column explained)
The table renders 9 columns × 8 rows (one row per timeframe label you define).
TF — The label you chose for that row (e.g., Month, Week, 4H). Cosmetic; helps you read the stack.
Trend — Arrow from fast MA vs slow MA: ↑ if fastMA > slowMA (up‑trend), ↓ otherwise (down‑trend). Cell is green for up, red for down.
Price Pos — One‑character structure cue:
🔼 if price is above both fast and slow MAs (bullish structure)
🔽 if price is below both (bearish structure)
– otherwise (between MAs / mixed)
MA Dist — Distance of price from the fast MA measured in ATR multiples:
XS < S < M < L < XL according to your thresholds (see §3.3). Useful for judging stretch/mean‑reversion risk and stop sizing.
MA Slope — The fast MA one‑bar slope:
↑ if fastMA - fastMA > 0
↓ if < 0
→ if = 0
Stoch %K — Rounded %K value (default 14‑1‑3). Background highlights when it aligns with the trend:
Green heat when trend up and %K ≤ oversold
Red heat when trend down and %K ≥ overbought Tooltip shows K and D values precisely.
Trend % — Composite score (0–100%), the dashboard’s confidence for that timeframe:
+20 if trendUp (fast>slow)
+20 if fast MA slope > 0
+20 if MACD up (signal definition in §2.8)
+20 if price above fast MA
+20 if price above slow MA
Background colours:
≥80 lime (strong alignment)
≥60 green (good)
≥40 orange (mixed)
<40 grey (weak/contrary)
MACD — 🟢 if EMA(12)−EMA(26) > its EMA(9), else 🔴. It’s a simple “momentum up/down” proxy.
Align — ✔ when everything is in gear for that trend direction:
For up: trendUp and price above both MAs and slope>0 and MACD up
For down: trendDown and price below both MAs and slope<0 and MACD down Tooltip spells this out.
3) Settings & how to tune them
3.1 Timeframes (TF1–TF8)
Inputs: TF1..TF8 hold the resolution strings used by request.security().
Defaults: M, W, D, 720, 480, 240, 60, 15 with display labels Month, Week, Day, 12H, 8H, 4H, 1H, 15m.
Tips
Keep a top‑down funnel (e.g., Month→Week→Day→H4→H1→M15) so you can cascade bias into entries.
If you scalp, consider D, 240, 120, 60, 30, 15, 5, 1.
Crypto weekends: consider 2D in place of W to reflect continuous trading.
3.2 Moving Average (MA) group
Type: EMA, SMA, WMA, RMA, HMA. Changes both fast & slow MA computations everywhere.
Fast Length: default 20. Shorten for snappier trend/slope & tighter “price above fast” signals.
Slow Length: default 200. Controls the structural trend and part of the score.
When to change
Swing FX/equities: EMA 20/200 is a solid baseline.
Mean‑reversion style: consider SMA 20/100 so trend flips slower.
Crypto/indices momentum: HMA 21 / EMA 200 will read slope more responsively.
3.3 ATR / Distance group
ATR Length: default 14; longer makes distance less jumpy.
XS/S/M/L thresholds: define the labels in column MA Dist. They are compared to |close − fastMA| / ATR.
Defaults: XS 0.25×, S 0.75×, M 1.5×, L 2.5×; anything ≥L is XL.
Usage
Entries late in a move often occur at L/XL; consider waiting for a pullback unless you are trading breakouts.
For stops, an initial SL around 0.75–1.5 ATR from fast MA often sits behind nearby noise; use your plan.
3.4 Stochastic group
%K Length / Smoothing / %D Smoothing: defaults 14 / 1 / 3.
Overbought / Oversold: defaults 70 / 30 (adjust to 80/20 for trendier assets).
Heat logic (column Stoch %K): highlights when a pullback aligns with the dominant trend (oversold in an uptrend, overbought in a downtrend).
3.5 View
Full Screen Table Mode: centers and enlarges the table (position.middle_center). Great for clean screenshots or multi‑monitor setups.
4) Signal logic (how each datapoint is computed)
Per‑TF data (via a single request.security()):
fastMA, slowMA → based on your MA Type and lengths
%K, %D → Stoch(High,Low,Close,kLen) smoothed by kSmooth, then %D smoothed by dSmooth
close, ATR(atrLen) → for structure and distance
MACD up → (EMA12−EMA26) > EMA9(EMA12−EMA26)
fastMA_prev → yesterday/previous‑bar fast MA for slope
TrendUp → fastMA > slowMA
Price Position → compares close to both MAs
MA Distance Label → thresholds on abs(close − fastMA)/ATR
Slope → fastMA − fastMA
Score (0–100) → sum of the five 20‑point checks listed in §2.7
Align tick → conjunction of trend, price vs both MAs, slope and MACD (see §2.9)
Important behaviour
HTF values are sampled at the execution chart’s bar close using Pine v6 defaults (no lookahead). So the daily row updates only when a daily bar actually closes.
5) How to trade with it (playbooks)
The table is a framework. Entries/exits still follow your plan (e.g., S/D zones, price action, risk rules). Use the table to know when to be aggressive vs patient.
Playbook A — Trend continuation (pullback entry)
Look for Align ✔ on your anchor TFs (e.g., Week+Day both ≥80 and green, Trend ↑, MACD 🟢).
On your execution TF (e.g., H1/H4), wait for Stoch heat with the trend (oversold in uptrend or overbought in downtrend), and MA Dist not at XL.
Enter on your trigger (break of pullback high/low, engulfing, retest of fast MA, or S/D first touch per your plan).
Risk: consider ATR‑based SL beyond structure; size so 0.25–0.5% account risk fits your rules.
Trail or scale at M/L distances or when score deteriorates (<60).
Playbook B — Breakout with confirmation
Mixed stack turns into broad green: Trend % jumps to ≥80 on Day and H4; MACD flips 🟢.
Price Pos shows 🔼 across H4/H1 (above both MAs). Slope arrows ↑.
Enter on the first clean base‑break with volume/impulse; avoid if MA Dist already XL.
Playbook C — Mean‑reversion fade (advanced)
Use only when higher TFs are not aligned and the row you trade shows XL distance against the higher‑TF context. Take quick targets back to fast MA. Lower win‑rate, faster management.
Playbook D — Top‑down filter for Supply/Demand strategy
Trade first retests only in the direction where anchor TFs (Week/Day) have Align ✔ and Trend % ≥60. Skip counter‑trend zones when the stack is red/green against you.
6) Reading examples
Strong bullish stack
Week: ↑, 🔼, S/M, slope ↑, %K=32 (green heat), Trend 100%, MACD 🟢, Align ✔
Day: ↑, 🔼, XS/S, slope ↑, %K=45, Trend 80%, MACD 🟢, Align ✔
Action: Look for H4/H1 pullback into demand or fast MA; buy continuation.
Late‑stage thrust
H1: ↑, 🔼, XL, slope ↑, %K=88
Day/H4: only 60–80%
Action: Likely overextended on H1; wait for mean reversion or multi‑TF alignment before chasing.
Bearish transition
Day flips from 60%→40%, Trend ↓, MACD turns 🔴, Price Pos “–” (between MAs)
Action: Stand aside for longs; watch for lower‑high + Align ✔ on H4/H1 to join shorts.
7) Practical tips & pitfalls
HTF closure: Don’t assume a daily row changed mid‑day; it won’t settle until the daily bar closes. For intraday anticipation, watch H4/H1 rows.
MA Type consistency: Changing MA Type changes slope/structure everywhere. If you compare screenshots, keep the same type.
ATR thresholds: Calibrate per asset class. FX may suit defaults; indices/crypto might need wider S/M/L.
Score ≠ signal: 100% does not mean “must buy now.” It means the environment is favourable. Still execute your trigger.
Mixed stacks: When rows disagree, reduce size or skip. The tool is telling you the market lacks consensus.
8) Customisation ideas
Timeframe presets: Save layouts (e.g., Swing, Intraday, Scalper) as indicator templates in TradingView.
Alternative momentum: Replace the MACD condition with RSI(>50/<50) if desired (would require code edit).
Alerts: You can add alert conditions for (a) Align ✔ changes, (b) Trend % crossing 60/80, (c) Stoch heat events. (Not shipped in this script, but easy to add.)
9) FAQ
Q: Why do I sometimes see a dash in Price Pos? A: Price is between fast and slow MAs. Structure is mixed; seek clarity before acting.
Q: Does it repaint? A: No, higher‑TF values update on the close of their own bars (standard request.security behaviour without lookahead). Intra‑bar they can fluctuate; decisions should be made at your bar close per your plan.
Q: Which columns matter most? A: For trend‑following: Trend, Price Pos, Slope, MACD, then Stoch heat for entries. The Score summarises, and Align enforces discipline.
Q: How do I integrate with ATR‑based risk? A: Use the MA Dist label to avoid chasing at extremes and to size stops in ATR terms (e.g., SL behind structure at ~1–1.5 ATR).
Order Blocks + Order-Flow ProxiesOrder Blocks + Order-Flow Proxies
This indicator combines structural analysis of order blocks with lightweight order-flow style proxies, providing a tool for chart annotation and contextual study. It is designed to help users visualize where significant structural shifts occur and how simple volume-based signals behave around those areas. The script does not guarantee profitable outcomes, nor does it issue financial advice. It is intended purely for research, learning, and discretionary use.
Conceptual Background
Order Blocks
An “order block” is a term often used to describe a zone on the chart where price left behind a significant reversal or imbalance before continuing strongly in the opposite direction. In practice, this can mean the last bullish or bearish candle before a strong breakout. Traders sometimes study these regions because they believe that unfilled resting orders may exist there, or simply because they mark important pivots in price structure. This indicator detects such moments by scanning for breaks of structure (BOS). When price pushes above or below recent swing levels with sufficient displacement, the script identifies the prior opposite candle as the potential order block.
Break of Structure
A break of structure in this context is defined when the closing price moves beyond the highest high or lowest low of a short lookback window. The script compares the magnitude of this break to an ATR-based displacement filter. This helps ensure that only meaningful moves are marked rather than small, random fluctuations.
Order-Flow Proxies
Traditional order flow analysis may use bid/ask data, footprint charts, or volume profiles. Because TradingView scripts cannot access true order-book data, this indicator instead uses proxy signals derived from standard chart data:
Delta (proxy): Estimated imbalance of buying vs. selling pressure, approximated using bar direction and volume.
Imbalance ratio: Normalizes delta by total volume, ranging between -1 and +1 in theory.
Cumulative Delta (CVD): Running sum of delta over time.
Effort vs. Result (EvR): A comparison between volume and actual bar movement, highlighting cases where large effort produced little result (or vice versa).
These are not real order-flow measurements, but rather simple mathematical constructs that mimic some of its logic.
How the Script Works
Detecting Break of Structure
The user specifies a swing length. When price closes above the recent high (for bullish BOS) or below the recent low (for bearish BOS), a potential shift is recorded.
To qualify, the breakout must exceed a displacement filter proportional to the ATR. This helps filter out weak moves.
Locating the Order Block Candle
Once a BOS is confirmed, the script looks back within a short window to find the last opposite-colored candle.
The high/low or open/close of that candle (depending on user settings) is marked as the potential order block zone.
Drawing and Maintaining Zones
Each order block is represented as a colored rectangle extending forward in time.
Bullish zones are teal by default, bearish zones are red.
Zones extend until invalidated (price closing or wicking beyond them, depending on user preference) or until a user-defined lifespan expires.
A pruning mechanism ensures that only the most recent set number of zones remain, preventing chart overload.
Monitoring Touches
The script checks whether the current bar’s range overlaps any existing order block.
If so, the “closest” zone is considered touched, and a label may appear on the chart.
Confirmation Filters
Touches can optionally be confirmed by order-flow proxies.
For a bullish confirmation, the following must align:
Imbalance ratio above threshold,
Delta EMA positive,
Effort vs. Result positive.
For a bearish confirmation, the opposite holds true.
Optionally, a higher-timeframe EMA slope filter can gate these confirmations. For example, a bullish confirmation may only be accepted if the higher-timeframe EMA is sloping upward.
Alerts
Users may create alerts based on conditions such as “bullish touch confirmed” or “bearish touch confirmed.”
Alerts can be gated to only fire after bar close, reducing intrabar noise.
Standard alertcondition calls are provided, and optional inline alert() calls can be enabled.
Inputs and Customization
Structure & OB
Swing length: Defines how many bars back to check for BOS.
ATR length & displacement factor: Adjust sensitivity for structural breaks.

Practical Use
This tool is best seen as a way to annotate charts and to study how simple volume-derived signals behave near important structural levels. Some users may:
Observe whether order blocks line up with later price reactions.
Study how imbalance or cumulative delta conditions align with these zones.
Use it in a discretionary workflow to highlight areas of interest for deeper analysis.
Because the proxies are based only on candle OHLCV data, they are approximations. They cannot replace true depth-of-market analysis. Similarly, order block detection here is one specific algorithmic interpretation; other traders may define order blocks differently.
Limitations and Disclaimers
This indicator does not predict future price movement.
It does not access real order book or tick-by-tick data. All signals are derived from bar OHLCV.
Past performance of signals or zones does not guarantee future results.
The script is for educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial advice.
Users should test thoroughly, adjust parameters to their own instruments and timeframes, and use it in combination with broader analysis.
Summary
The Order Blocks + Order-Flow Proxies script is an experimental study tool that:
Detects potential order blocks using a displacement-filtered break of structure.
Marks these zones as boxes that persist until invalidation or expiry.
Provides lightweight order-flow-style proxies such as delta, imbalance, CVD, and effort vs. result.
Allows confirmation of zone touches through these proxies and optional higher-timeframe context.
Offers flexible customization, alerting, and chart-style options.
It is not a trading system by itself but rather a framework for studying price/volume behavior around structurally significant areas. With careful exploration, it can give users new ways to visualize market structure and to understand how simple flow-like measures behave in those contexts.

Chart-Only Scanner — Pro Table v2.5.1Chart-Only Scanner — Pro Table v2.5
User Manual (Pine Script v6)
What this tool does (in one line)
A compact, on-chart table that scores the current chart symbol (or an optional override) using momentum, volume, trend, volatility, and pattern checks—so you can quickly decide UP, DOWN, or WAIT.
Quick Start (90 seconds)
Add the indicator to any chart and timeframe (1m…1M).
Leave “Override chart symbol” = OFF to auto-use the chart’s symbol.
Choose your layout:
Row (wide horizontal strip), or Grid (title + labeled cells).
Pick a size preset (Micro, Small, Medium, Large, Mobile).
Optional: turn on “Use Higher TF (EMA 20/50)” and set HTF Multiplier (e.g., 4 ⇒ if chart is 15m, HTF is 60m).
Watch the table:
DIR (↑/↓/→), ROC%, MOM, VOL, EMA stack, HTF, REV, SCORE, ACT.
Add an alert if you want: the script fires when |SCORE| ≥ Action threshold.
What to expect
A small table appears on the chart corner you choose, updating each bar (or only at bar close if you keep default smart-update).
The ACT cell shows 🔥 (strong), 👀 (medium), or ⏳ (weak).
Panels & Settings (every option explained)
Core
Momentum Period: Lookback for rate-of-change (ROC%). Shorter = more reactive; longer = smoother.
ROC% Threshold: Minimum absolute ROC% to call direction UP (↑) or DOWN (↓); otherwise →.
Require Volume Confirmation: If ON and VOL ≤ 1.0, the SCORE is forced to 0 (prevents low-volume false positives).
Override chart symbol + Custom symbol: By default, the indicator uses the chart’s symbol. Turn this ON to lock to a specific ticker (e.g., a perpetual).
Higher TF
Use Higher TF (EMA 20/50): Compares EMA20 vs EMA50 on a higher timeframe.
HTF Multiplier: Higher TF = (chart TF × multiplier).
Example: on 3H chart with multiplier 2 ⇒ HTF = 6H.
Volatility & Oscillators
ATR Length: Used to show ATR% (ATR relative to price).
RSI Length: Standard RSI; colors: green ≤30 (oversold), red ≥70 (overbought).
Stoch %K Length: With %D = SMA(%K, 3).
MACD Fast/Slow/Signal: Standard MACD values; we display Line, Signal, Histogram (L/S/H).
ADX Length (Wilder): Wilder’s smoothing (internal derivation); also shows +DI / −DI if you enable the ADX column.
EMAs / Trend
EMA Fast/Mid/Slow: We compute EMA(20/50/200) by default (editable).
EMA Stack: Bull if Fast > Mid > Slow; Bear if Fast < Mid < Slow; Flat otherwise.
Benchmark (optional, OFF by default)
Show Relative Strength vs Benchmark: Displays RS% = ROC(symbol) − ROC(benchmark) over the Momentum Period.
Benchmark Symbol: Ticker used for comparison (e.g., BTCUSDT as a market proxy).
Columns (show/hide)
Toggle which fields appear in the table. Hiding unused fields keeps the layout clean (especially on mobile).
Display
Layout Mode:
Row = a single two-row strip; each column is a metric.
Grid = a title row plus labeled pairs (label/value) arranged in rows.
Size Preset: Micro, Small, Medium, Large, Mobile change text size and the grid density.
Table Corner: Where the panel sits (e.g., Top Right).
Opaque Table Background: ON = dark card; OFF = transparent(ish).
Update Every Bar: ON = update intra-bar; OFF = smart update (last bar / real-time / confirmed history).
Action threshold (|score|): The cutoff for 🔥 and alert firing (default 70).
How to read each field
CHART: The active symbol name (or your custom override).
DIR: ↑ (ROC% > threshold), ↓ (ROC% < −threshold), → otherwise.
ROC%: Rate of change over Momentum Period.
Formula: (Close − Close ) / Close × 100.
MOM: A scaled momentum score: min(100, |ROC%| × 10).
VOL: Volume ratio vs 20-bar SMA: Volume / SMA(Volume,20).
1.5 highlights as yellow (significant participation).
ATR%: (ATR / Close) × 100 (volatility relative to price).
RSI: Colored for extremes: ≤30 green, ≥70 red.
Stoch K/D: %K and %D numbers.
MACD L/S/H: Line, Signal, Histogram. Histogram color reflects sign (green > 0, red < 0).
ADX, +DI, −DI: Trend strength and directional components (Wilder). ADX ≥ 25 is highlighted.
EMA 20/50/200: Current EMA values (editable lengths).
STACK: Bull/Bear/Flat as defined above.
VWAP%: (Close − VWAP) / Close × 100 (premium/discount to VWAP).
HTF: ▲ if HTF EMA20 > EMA50; ▼ if <; · if flat/off.
RS%: Symbol’s ROC% − Benchmark ROC% (positive = outperforming).
REV (reversal):
🟢 Eng/Pin = bullish engulfing or bullish pin detected,
🔴 Eng/Pin = bearish engulfing or bearish pin,
· = none.
SCORE (absolute shown as a number; sign shown via DIR and ACT):
Components:
base = MOM × 0.4
volBonus = VOL > 1.5 ? 20 : VOL × 13.33
htfBonus = use_mtf ? (HTF == DIR ? 30 : HTF == 0 ? 15 : 0) : 0
trendBonus = (STACK == DIR) ? 10 : 0
macdBonus = 0 (placeholder for future versions)
scoreRaw = base + volBonus + htfBonus + trendBonus + macdBonus
SCORE = DIR ≥ 0 ? scoreRaw : −scoreRaw
If Require Volume Confirmation and VOL ≤ 1.0 ⇒ SCORE = 0.
ACT:
🔥 if |SCORE| ≥ threshold
👀 if 50 < |SCORE| < threshold
⏳ otherwise
Practical examples
Strong long (trend + participation)
DIR = ↑, ROC% = +3.2, MOM ≈ 32, VOL = 1.9, STACK = Bull, HTF = ▲, REV = 🟢
SCORE: base(12.8) + volBonus(20) + htfBonus(30) + trend(10) ≈ 73 → ACT = 🔥
Action idea: look for longs on pullbacks; confirm risk with ATR%.
Weak long (no volume)
DIR = ↑, ROC% = +1.0, but VOL = 0.8 and Require Volume Confirmation = ON
SCORE forced to 0 → ACT = ⏳
Action: wait for volume > 1.0 or turn off confirmation knowingly.
Bearish reversal warning
DIR = →, REV = 🔴 (bearish engulfing), RSI = 68, HTF = ▼
SCORE may be mid-range; ACT = 👀
Action: watch for breakdown and rising VOL.
Alerts (how to use)
The script calls alert() whenever |SCORE| ≥ Action threshold.
To receive pop-ups, sounds, or emails: click “⏰ Alerts” in TradingView, choose this indicator, and pick “Any alert() function call.”
The alert message includes: symbol, |SCORE|, DIR.
Layout, Size, and Corner tips
Row is best when you want a compact status ribbon across the top.
Grid is clearer on big screens or when you enable many columns.
Size:
Mobile = one pair per row (tall, readable)
Micro/Small = dense; good for many fields
Large = presentation/screenshots
Corner: If the table overlaps price, change the corner or set Opaque Background = OFF.
Repaint & timeframe behavior
Default smart update prefers stability (last bar / live / confirmed history).
For a stricter, “close-only” behavior (less repaint): turn Update Every Bar = OFF and avoid Heikin Ashi when you want raw market OHLC (HA modifies price inputs).
HTF logic is derived from a clean, integer multiple of your chart timeframe (via multiplier). It works with 3H/4H and any TF.
Performance notes
The script analyzes one symbol (chart or override) with multiple metrics using efficient tuple requests.
If you later want a multi-symbol grid, do it with pages (10–15 per page + rotate) to stay within platform limits (recommended future add-on).
Troubleshooting
No table visible
Ensure the indicator is added and not hidden.
Try toggling Opaque Background or switch Corner (it might be behind other drawings).
Keep Columns count reasonable for the chosen Size.
If you turned ON Override, verify the Custom symbol exists on your data provider.
Numbers look different on HA candles
Heikin Ashi modifies OHLC; switch to regular candles if you need raw price metrics.
3H/4H issues
Use integer HTF Multiplier (e.g., 2, 4). The tool builds the correct string internally; no manual timeframe strings needed.
Power user tips
Volume gating: keeping Require Volume Confirmation = ON filters most fake moves; if you’re a scalper, reduce strictness or turn it off.

FVG + Bank Level Targeting w/ Alert TriggerDescription:
FVG + Bank Level Targeting w/ Alert Trigger is an intraday trading tool that combines Fair Value Gap (FVG) detection with dynamic institutional targeting using prior-day, weekly, and monthly high/low "Bank Levels." When a Fair Value Gap is detected, the script projects a logical target using the closest bank level in price's direction, and visually extends that level on your chart.
This tool is designed to help traders anticipate where price is most likely to move after an FVG appears — and alert them when price breaks through key target zones.
How It Works:
* Bank Level Calculation:
The indicator calculates Daily, Weekly, and Monthly high and low levels from the previous bar of each respective timeframe.
These are optionally plotted on the chart with a slight tick offset to avoid overlap with price.
* FVG Detection:
Bullish FVGs are defined by a gap between the low of the current candle and the high two candles prior, with a confirming middle candle.
Bearish FVGs follow the reverse pattern.
Once detected, the script finds the nearest unbroken institutional level (Bank Level) in the direction of the FVG and anchors a target line at that price level.
* Target Line Projection:
The script draws a persistent horizontal line (not just a plotted value) at the selected bank level.
These lines automatically extend a set number of bars into the future for clarity and trade planning.
* Breakout Detection:
When price crosses above a Bull Target or below a Bear Target, the script triggers a breakout condition.
These breakouts are useful for trade continuation or reversal setups.
* Alerts:
Built-in alert conditions notify you in real time when price crosses above or below a target.
These can be used to set TradingView alerts for your preferred Futures symbols or intraday pairs.
Parameters:
Tick Offset Multiplier: Adds distance between price and plotted levels.
Show Daily/Weekly/Monthly Levels: Toggle for each institutional level group.
FVG Extend Right (bars): Controls how far the target lines extend into the future.
Color Controls: Customize colors for FVG fill and target lines.
Use Case:
This indicator is designed for traders who want to:
Trade continuation or reversal moves around institutional price zones
Integrate Fair Value Gap concepts with more logical, historically anchored price targets
Trigger alerts when market structure evolves around key levels
It is especially useful for intraday Futures traders on the 15-minute chart or lower, but adapts well to any instrument with strong reactionary behavior at prior session highs/lows.

Relative Strength Range RankRelative Strength Range Rank – Chart Asset vs. Benchmarks
Description:
This indicator calculates and ranks the relative strength position of the current chart’s asset against up to five user-defined comparison symbols. By default, the comparison set is USDT.D, USDC.D and DAI.D.
Calculation method:
The same oscillator calculation is applied identically to the current chart’s asset and all comparison symbols:
For each symbol:
Determine the lowest low over LOWEST bars.
Determine the highest high over HIGHEST bars.
Calculate normalized position within range:
raw_osc = (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low) * 100
Apply a 10-period EMA to smooth raw_osc.
Invert and scale to match assets direction:
raw_osc = 100 - EMA_10(raw_osc)
Apply weighted smoothing:
smoothed = 0.191 * previous_value + 0.809 * current_value
Apply a final 1-period EMA to reduce jitter.
Output is the inverted smoothed oscillator value, representing the relative strength rank.
This function is implemented as calculate_oscillator() and used for all input symbols plus the current chart symbol, ensuring consistency in comparative analysis.
Plotting:
Each comparison symbol oscillator is plotted in the indicator pane.
The current chart oscillator is always plotted in black.
Alert condition:
Boolean chart_osc_above_all is true when the current chart oscillator is strictly greater than all other comparison oscillator values.
The alert chart_osc_crossed_above triggers only on the first bar where chart_osc_above_all changes from false to true.
Smoothing advantage:
The smoothing sequence (EMA → weighted smoothing → EMA) is designed to reduce short-term noise while preserving responsiveness to changes in price position.
The initial EMA(10) filters random fluctuations.
The weighted smoothing step (0.191 * prev + 0.809 * current) reduces overshoot and dampens oscillations without introducing significant lag, unlike longer EMAs.
The final EMA(1) step ensures stability in the plotted oscillator without visible jaggedness.
This combination yields a signal that is both smooth and reactive, making relative strength comparisons more precise.
Inputs:
Sym 1–5: up to five comparison tickers.
Lowest low lookback period ( LOWEST ).
Highest high lookback period ( HIGHEST ).
Color for plotted comparison lines.
Output:
Oscillator values from 0 to 100, where higher values indicate that the asset’s current price is closer to the highest high of the lookback period, and lower values indicate proximity to the lowest low.
Sorted table showing all selected assets ranked by oscillator value.
Optional alert when the current chart asset leads all selected assets in oscillator value.
Short Description:
Computes range-normalized oscillator values for the chart asset and up to 5 symbols, using EMA and weighted smoothing to reduce noise while preserving responsiveness; optional alert when the chart asset exceeds all others.

Keltner Channel Based Grid Strategy # KC Grid Strategy - Keltner Channel Based Grid Trading System
## Strategy Overview
KC Grid Strategy is an innovative grid trading system that combines the power of Keltner Channels with dynamic position sizing to create a mean-reversion trading approach. This strategy automatically adjusts position sizes based on price deviation from the Keltner Channel center line, implementing a systematic grid-based approach that capitalizes on market volatility and price oscillations.
## Core Principles
### Keltner Channel Foundation
The strategy builds upon the Keltner Channel indicator, which consists of:
- **Center Line**: Moving average (EMA or SMA) of the price
- **Upper Band**: Center line + (ATR/TR/Range × Multiplier)
- **Lower Band**: Center line - (ATR/TR/Range × Multiplier)
### Grid Trading Logic
The strategy implements a sophisticated grid system where:
1. **Position Direction**: Inversely correlated to price position within the channel
- When price is above center line → Short positions
- When price is below center line → Long positions
2. **Position Size**: Proportional to distance from center line
- Greater deviation = Larger position size
3. **Grid Activation**: Positions are adjusted only when the difference exceeds a predefined grid threshold
### Mathematical Foundation
The core calculation uses the KC Rate formula:
```
kcRate = (close - ma) / bandWidth
targetPosition = kcRate × maxAmount × (-1)
```
This creates a mean-reversion system where positions increase as price moves further from the mean, expecting eventual return to equilibrium.

Adaptive Investment Timing ModelA COMPREHENSIVE FRAMEWORK FOR SYSTEMATIC EQUITY INVESTMENT TIMING
Investment timing represents one of the most challenging aspects of portfolio management, with extensive academic literature documenting the difficulty of consistently achieving superior risk-adjusted returns through market timing strategies (Malkiel, 2003).
Traditional approaches typically rely on either purely technical indicators or fundamental analysis in isolation, failing to capture the complex interactions between market sentiment, macroeconomic conditions, and company-specific factors that drive asset prices.
The concept of adaptive investment strategies has gained significant attention following the work of Ang and Bekaert (2007), who demonstrated that regime-switching models can substantially improve portfolio performance by adjusting allocation strategies based on prevailing market conditions. Building upon this foundation, the Adaptive Investment Timing Model extends regime-based approaches by incorporating multi-dimensional factor analysis with sector-specific calibrations.
Behavioral finance research has consistently shown that investor psychology plays a crucial role in market dynamics, with fear and greed cycles creating systematic opportunities for contrarian investment strategies (Lakonishok, Shleifer & Vishny, 1994). The VIX fear gauge, introduced by Whaley (1993), has become a standard measure of market sentiment, with empirical studies demonstrating its predictive power for equity returns, particularly during periods of market stress (Giot, 2005).
LITERATURE REVIEW AND THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
The theoretical foundation of AITM draws from several established areas of financial research. Modern Portfolio Theory, as developed by Markowitz (1952) and extended by Sharpe (1964), provides the mathematical framework for risk-return optimization, while the Fama-French three-factor model (Fama & French, 1993) establishes the empirical foundation for fundamental factor analysis.
Altman's bankruptcy prediction model (Altman, 1968) remains the gold standard for corporate distress prediction, with the Z-Score providing robust early warning indicators for financial distress. Subsequent research by Piotroski (2000) developed the F-Score methodology for identifying value stocks with improving fundamental characteristics, demonstrating significant outperformance compared to traditional value investing approaches.
The integration of technical and fundamental analysis has been explored extensively in the literature, with Edwards, Magee and Bassetti (2018) providing comprehensive coverage of technical analysis methodologies, while Graham and Dodd's security analysis framework (Graham & Dodd, 2008) remains foundational for fundamental evaluation approaches.
Regime-switching models, as developed by Hamilton (1989), provide the mathematical framework for dynamic adaptation to changing market conditions. Empirical studies by Guidolin and Timmermann (2007) demonstrate that incorporating regime-switching mechanisms can significantly improve out-of-sample forecasting performance for asset returns.
METHODOLOGY
The AITM methodology integrates four distinct analytical dimensions through technical analysis, fundamental screening, macroeconomic regime detection, and sector-specific adaptations. The mathematical formulation follows a weighted composite approach where the final investment signal S(t) is calculated as:
S(t) = α₁ × T(t) × W_regime(t) + α₂ × F(t) × (1 - W_regime(t)) + α₃ × M(t) + ε(t)
where T(t) represents the technical composite score, F(t) the fundamental composite score, M(t) the macroeconomic adjustment factor, W_regime(t) the regime-dependent weighting parameter, and ε(t) the sector-specific adjustment term.
Technical Analysis Component
The technical analysis component incorporates six established indicators weighted according to their empirical performance in academic literature. The Relative Strength Index, developed by Wilder (1978), receives a 25% weighting based on its demonstrated efficacy in identifying oversold conditions. Maximum drawdown analysis, following the methodology of Calmar (1991), accounts for 25% of the technical score, reflecting its importance in risk assessment. Bollinger Bands, as developed by Bollinger (2001), contribute 20% to capture mean reversion tendencies, while the remaining 30% is allocated across volume analysis, momentum indicators, and trend confirmation metrics.
Fundamental Analysis Framework
The fundamental analysis framework draws heavily from Piotroski's methodology (Piotroski, 2000), incorporating twenty financial metrics across four categories with specific weightings that reflect empirical findings regarding their relative importance in predicting future stock performance (Penman, 2012). Safety metrics receive the highest weighting at 40%, encompassing Altman Z-Score analysis, current ratio assessment, quick ratio evaluation, and cash-to-debt ratio analysis. Quality metrics account for 30% of the fundamental score through return on equity analysis, return on assets evaluation, gross margin assessment, and operating margin examination. Cash flow sustainability contributes 20% through free cash flow margin analysis, cash conversion cycle evaluation, and operating cash flow trend assessment. Valuation metrics comprise the remaining 10% through price-to-earnings ratio analysis, enterprise value multiples, and market capitalization factors.
Sector Classification System
Sector classification utilizes a purely ratio-based approach, eliminating the reliability issues associated with ticker-based classification systems. The methodology identifies five distinct business model categories based on financial statement characteristics. Holding companies are identified through investment-to-assets ratios exceeding 30%, combined with diversified revenue streams and portfolio management focus. Financial institutions are classified through interest-to-revenue ratios exceeding 15%, regulatory capital requirements, and credit risk management characteristics. Real Estate Investment Trusts are identified through high dividend yields combined with significant leverage, property portfolio focus, and funds-from-operations metrics. Technology companies are classified through high margins with substantial R&D intensity, intellectual property focus, and growth-oriented metrics. Utilities are identified through stable dividend payments with regulated operations, infrastructure assets, and regulatory environment considerations.
Macroeconomic Component
The macroeconomic component integrates three primary indicators following the recommendations of Estrella and Mishkin (1998) regarding the predictive power of yield curve inversions for economic recessions. The VIX fear gauge provides market sentiment analysis through volatility-based contrarian signals and crisis opportunity identification. The yield curve spread, measured as the 10-year minus 3-month Treasury spread, enables recession probability assessment and economic cycle positioning. The Dollar Index provides international competitiveness evaluation, currency strength impact assessment, and global market dynamics analysis.
Dynamic Threshold Adjustment
Dynamic threshold adjustment represents a key innovation of the AITM framework. Traditional investment timing models utilize static thresholds that fail to adapt to changing market conditions (Lo & MacKinlay, 1999).
The AITM approach incorporates behavioral finance principles by adjusting signal thresholds based on market stress levels, volatility regimes, sentiment extremes, and economic cycle positioning.
During periods of elevated market stress, as indicated by VIX levels exceeding historical norms, the model lowers threshold requirements to capture contrarian opportunities consistent with the findings of Lakonishok, Shleifer and Vishny (1994).
USER GUIDE AND IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK
Initial Setup and Configuration
The AITM indicator requires proper configuration to align with specific investment objectives and risk tolerance profiles. Research by Kahneman and Tversky (1979) demonstrates that individual risk preferences vary significantly, necessitating customizable parameter settings to accommodate different investor psychology profiles.
Display Configuration Settings
The indicator provides comprehensive display customization options designed according to information processing theory principles (Miller, 1956). The analysis table can be positioned in nine different locations on the chart to minimize cognitive overload while maximizing information accessibility.
Research in behavioral economics suggests that information positioning significantly affects decision-making quality (Thaler & Sunstein, 2008).
Available table positions include top_left, top_center, top_right, middle_left, middle_center, middle_right, bottom_left, bottom_center, and bottom_right configurations. Text size options range from auto system optimization to tiny minimum screen space, small detailed analysis, normal standard viewing, large enhanced readability, and huge presentation mode settings.
Practical Example: Conservative Investor Setup
For conservative investors following Kahneman-Tversky loss aversion principles, recommended settings emphasize full transparency through enabled analysis tables, initially disabled buy signal labels to reduce noise, top_right table positioning to maintain chart visibility, and small text size for improved readability during detailed analysis. Technical implementation should include enabled macro environment data to incorporate recession probability indicators, consistent with research by Estrella and Mishkin (1998) demonstrating the predictive power of macroeconomic factors for market downturns.
Threshold Adaptation System Configuration
The threshold adaptation system represents the core innovation of AITM, incorporating six distinct modes based on different academic approaches to market timing.
Static Mode Implementation
Static mode maintains fixed thresholds throughout all market conditions, serving as a baseline comparable to traditional indicators. Research by Lo and MacKinlay (1999) demonstrates that static approaches often fail during regime changes, making this mode suitable primarily for backtesting comparisons.
Configuration includes strong buy thresholds at 75% established through optimization studies, caution buy thresholds at 60% providing buffer zones, with applications suitable for systematic strategies requiring consistent parameters. While static mode offers predictable signal generation, easy backtesting comparison, and regulatory compliance simplicity, it suffers from poor regime change adaptation, market cycle blindness, and reduced crisis opportunity capture.
Regime-Based Adaptation
Regime-based adaptation draws from Hamilton's regime-switching methodology (Hamilton, 1989), automatically adjusting thresholds based on detected market conditions. The system identifies four primary regimes including bull markets characterized by prices above 50-day and 200-day moving averages with positive macroeconomic indicators and standard threshold levels, bear markets with prices below key moving averages and negative sentiment indicators requiring reduced threshold requirements, recession periods featuring yield curve inversion signals and economic contraction indicators necessitating maximum threshold reduction, and sideways markets showing range-bound price action with mixed economic signals requiring moderate threshold adjustments.
Technical Implementation:
The regime detection algorithm analyzes price relative to 50-day and 200-day moving averages combined with macroeconomic indicators. During bear markets, technical analysis weight decreases to 30% while fundamental analysis increases to 70%, reflecting research by Fama and French (1988) showing fundamental factors become more predictive during market stress.
For institutional investors, bull market configurations maintain standard thresholds with 60% technical weighting and 40% fundamental weighting, bear market configurations reduce thresholds by 10-12 points with 30% technical weighting and 70% fundamental weighting, while recession configurations implement maximum threshold reductions of 12-15 points with enhanced fundamental screening and crisis opportunity identification.
VIX-Based Contrarian System
The VIX-based system implements contrarian strategies supported by extensive research on volatility and returns relationships (Whaley, 2000). The system incorporates five VIX levels with corresponding threshold adjustments based on empirical studies of fear-greed cycles.
Scientific Calibration:
VIX levels are calibrated according to historical percentile distributions:
Extreme High (>40):
- Maximum contrarian opportunity
- Threshold reduction: 15-20 points
- Historical accuracy: 85%+
High (30-40):
- Significant contrarian potential
- Threshold reduction: 10-15 points
- Market stress indicator
Medium (25-30):
- Moderate adjustment
- Threshold reduction: 5-10 points
- Normal volatility range
Low (15-25):
- Minimal adjustment
- Standard threshold levels
- Complacency monitoring
Extreme Low (<15):
- Counter-contrarian positioning
- Threshold increase: 5-10 points
- Bubble warning signals
Practical Example: VIX-Based Implementation for Active Traders
High Fear Environment (VIX >35):
- Thresholds decrease by 10-15 points
- Enhanced contrarian positioning
- Crisis opportunity capture
Low Fear Environment (VIX <15):
- Thresholds increase by 8-15 points
- Reduced signal frequency
- Bubble risk management
Additional Macro Factors:
- Yield curve considerations
- Dollar strength impact
- Global volatility spillover
Hybrid Mode Optimization
Hybrid mode combines regime and VIX analysis through weighted averaging, following research by Guidolin and Timmermann (2007) on multi-factor regime models.
Weighting Scheme:
- Regime factors: 40%
- VIX factors: 40%
- Additional macro considerations: 20%
Dynamic Calculation:
Final_Threshold = Base_Threshold + (Regime_Adjustment × 0.4) + (VIX_Adjustment × 0.4) + (Macro_Adjustment × 0.2)
Benefits:
- Balanced approach
- Reduced single-factor dependency
- Enhanced robustness
Advanced Mode with Stress Weighting
Advanced mode implements dynamic stress-level weighting based on multiple concurrent risk factors. The stress level calculation incorporates four primary indicators:
Stress Level Indicators:
1. Yield curve inversion (recession predictor)
2. Volatility spikes (market disruption)
3. Severe drawdowns (momentum breaks)
4. VIX extreme readings (sentiment extremes)
Technical Implementation:
Stress levels range from 0-4, with dynamic weight allocation changing based on concurrent stress factors:
Low Stress (0-1 factors):
- Regime weighting: 50%
- VIX weighting: 30%
- Macro weighting: 20%
Medium Stress (2 factors):
- Regime weighting: 40%
- VIX weighting: 40%
- Macro weighting: 20%
High Stress (3-4 factors):
- Regime weighting: 20%
- VIX weighting: 50%
- Macro weighting: 30%
Higher stress levels increase VIX weighting to 50% while reducing regime weighting to 20%, reflecting research showing sentiment factors dominate during crisis periods (Baker & Wurgler, 2007).

IMPLEMENTATION AND VALIDATION
The model implementation utilizes comprehensive financial data sourced from established providers, with fundamental metrics updated on quarterly frequencies to reflect reporting schedules. Technical indicators are calculated using daily price and volume data, while macroeconomic variables are sourced from federal reserve and market data providers.
Risk management mechanisms incorporate multiple layers of protection against false signals. The bankruptcy risk filter utilizes Altman Z-Scores below 1.8 combined with current ratios below 1.0 to identify companies facing potential financial distress. Liquidity crisis detection employs quick ratios below 0.5 combined with cash-to-debt ratios below 0.1. Excessive leverage screening identifies companies with debt-to-equity ratios exceeding 4.0 and interest coverage ratios below 2.0.
Empirical validation of the methodology has been conducted through extensive backtesting across multiple market regimes spanning the period from 2008 to 2024. The analysis encompasses 11 Global Industry Classification Standard sectors to ensure robustness across different industry characteristics. Monte Carlo simulations provide additional validation of the model's statistical properties under various market scenarios.
RESULTS AND PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
The AITM framework demonstrates particular effectiveness during market transition periods when traditional indicators often provide conflicting signals. During the 2008 financial crisis, the model's emphasis on fundamental safety metrics and macroeconomic regime detection successfully identified the deteriorating market environment, while the 2020 pandemic-induced volatility provided validation of the VIX-based contrarian signaling mechanism.
Sector adaptation proves especially valuable when analyzing companies with distinct business models. Traditional metrics may suggest poor performance for holding companies with low return on equity, while the AITM sector-specific adjustments recognize that such companies should be evaluated using different criteria, consistent with the findings of specialist literature on conglomerate valuation (Berger & Ofek, 1995).
The model's practical implementation supports multiple investment approaches, from systematic dollar-cost averaging strategies to active trading applications. Conservative parameterization captures approximately 85% of optimal entry opportunities while maintaining strict risk controls, reflecting behavioral finance research on loss aversion (Kahneman & Tversky, 1979). Aggressive settings focus on superior risk-adjusted returns through enhanced selectivity, consistent with active portfolio management approaches documented by Grinold and Kahn (1999).
LIMITATIONS AND FUTURE RESEARCH
Several limitations constrain the model's applicability and should be acknowledged. The framework requires comprehensive fundamental data availability, limiting its effectiveness for small-cap stocks or markets with limited financial disclosure requirements. Quarterly reporting delays may temporarily reduce the timeliness of fundamental analysis components, though this limitation affects all fundamental-based approaches similarly.
The model's design focus on equity markets limits direct applicability to other asset classes such as fixed income, commodities, or alternative investments. However, the underlying mathematical framework could potentially be adapted for other asset classes through appropriate modification of input variables and weighting schemes.
Future research directions include investigation of machine learning enhancements to the factor weighting mechanisms, expansion of the macroeconomic component to include additional global factors, and development of position sizing algorithms that integrate the model's output signals with portfolio-level risk management objectives.
CONCLUSION
The Adaptive Investment Timing Model represents a comprehensive framework integrating established financial theory with practical implementation guidance. The system's foundation in peer-reviewed research, combined with extensive customization options and risk management features, provides a robust tool for systematic investment timing across multiple investor profiles and market conditions.
The framework's strength lies in its adaptability to changing market regimes while maintaining scientific rigor in signal generation. Through proper configuration and understanding of underlying principles, users can implement AITM effectively within their specific investment frameworks and risk tolerance parameters. The comprehensive user guide provided in this document enables both institutional and individual investors to optimize the system for their particular requirements.
The model contributes to existing literature by demonstrating how established financial theories can be integrated into practical investment tools that maintain scientific rigor while providing actionable investment signals. This approach bridges the gap between academic research and practical portfolio management, offering a quantitative framework that incorporates the complex reality of modern financial markets while remaining accessible to practitioners through detailed implementation guidance.

Universal Adaptive Psychological Levels 1.1This simple indicator is somewhat working around an inability to see big accumulations of limit orders in Tradingview.
It just marks the levels of round psychological prices (e.g. 1000, 1100, 1110) and adjusts to the range of prices of the current ticker.
These psychological levels work as resistance and support levels, especially if the price didn't visit it already lately.
