GKD-C Absolute Strength Histogram [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope Absolute Strength Histogram is a Confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends.
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends.
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends.
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown.
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Hull Moving Average as shown on the chart above
Volatility/Volume: Finite Volume Elements (FVE) as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 1: Absolute Strength Histogram as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
Continuation: Fisher Transform
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

█ Absolute Strength Histogram
What is Absolute Strength Histogram?
Absolute Strength ( aka Absolute Strength Histogram) Backtest is a momentum indicator that shows trend strength of bulls vs bears. This indicator originates from MQL Forex Traders. This version isn't actually a histogram but its called as such because this same formulation normally includes a histogram but for our purposes here, that is excluded.

█ Aroon
What is Aroon?
The Aroon indicator is a technical indicator that is used to identify trend changes in the price of an asset, as well as the strength of that trend. In essence, the indicator measures the time between highs and the time between lows over a time period. The idea is that strong uptrends will regularly see new highs, and strong downtrends will regularly see new lows. The indicator signals when this is happening, and when it isn't.

GKD-V Average Directional Index (ADX) [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope Average Directional Index (ADX) is a Volatility/Volume module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends.
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends.
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends.
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown.
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Leader Exponential Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Average Directional Index (ADX) as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 1: Double Smoothed Stochastic of Momentum
Confirmation 2: Jurik Turning Point Oscillator
Continuation: Fisher Transform
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

█ Average Directional Index (ADX)
What is Average Directional Index (ADX)
Trading in the direction of a strong trend reduces risk and increases profit potential. The average directional index (ADX) is used to determine when the price is trending strongly. In many cases, it is the ultimate trend indicator. After all, the trend may be your friend, but it sure helps to know who your friends are.
ADX is used to quantify trend strength. ADX calculations are based on a moving average of price range expansion over a given period of time. The default setting is 14 bars, although other time periods can be used. ADX can be used on any trading vehicle such as stocks, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and futures.
ADX is plotted as a single line with values ranging from a low of zero to a high of 100. ADX is non-directional; it registers trend strength whether price is trending up or down. The indicator is usually plotted in the same window as the two directional movement indicator (DMI) lines, but for our purposes here, we are only concerned with the ADX itself.
Signals
Traditional: ADX is above the threshold cutoff; both longs/shorts triggered when ADX is above the threshold cutoff
Crossing: ADX crosses above/below the threshold cutoff; longs or shorts are only valid on the candle where the cross happens. Both cross-ups and cross-downs are valid for both shorts and longs
Signal Modifiers
X-Bar Rule: If signals occur within XX bars, then the signal is still valid
Bars Rising: This is for traditional signals only. This requires that an upward slop of ADX be present over XX bars
Other things to note
The GKD trading system requires that a GKD-V indicator be present in the indicator chain, but the GKD-V indicator doesn't need to be active. You can turn on/off the Volatility Ratio as you wish so you can backtest your trading strategy with the filter on or off.
Additional features will be added in future releases.

█ Loxx Volty
What is Loxx Volty
One of the lesser known qualities of Loxx smoothing is that the Loxx smoothing process is adaptive. "Loxx Volty" (a sort of market volatility) is what makes Loxx smoothing adaptive. The Loxx Volty calculation can be used as both a standalone indicator and to smooth other indicators that you wish to make adaptive.

█ Finite Volume Elements
What is Finite Volume Elements
The Finite Volume Element Indicator ( FVE ) was developed by Markos Katsanos and introduced in the April 2003 issue of Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine. It was modified for volatility in the September 2003 issue of TASC.
FVE is a money flow indicator but with two important differences from existing money flow indicators:
It resolves contradictions between intraday money flow indicators (such as Chaikin’s money flow ) and intraday money flow indicators (like On Balance Volume ) by taking into account both intra- and intraday price action.
Unlike other money flow indicators which add or subtract all volume even if the security closed just 1 cent higher than the previous close, FVE uses a volatility threshold to take into account minimal price changes
Other things to note
The GKD trading system requires that a GKD-V indicator be present in the indicator chain, but the GKD-V indicator doesn't need to be active. You can turn on/off the Volatility Ratio as you wish so you can backtest your trading strategy with the filter on or off.

Adaptive Moving Average - AMA
Description. The Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) is a moving average that changes its sensitivity to price moves depending on the calculated volatility. It becomes more sensitive during periods when the price is moving smoothly in a certain direction and becomes less sensitive when the price is volatile.
ADXvma - Average Directional Volatility Moving Average
Linnsoft's ADXvma formula is a volatility-based moving average, with the volatility being determined by the value of the ADX indicator.
The ADXvma has the SMA in Chande's CMO replaced with an EMA , it then uses a few more layers of EMA smoothing before the "Volatility Index" is calculated.
A side effect is, those additional layers slow down the ADXvma when you compare it to Chande's Variable Index Dynamic Average VIDYA .
The ADXVMA provides support during uptrends and resistance during downtrends and will stay flat for longer, but will create some of the most accurate market signals when it decides to move.
Ahrens Moving Average
Richard D. Ahrens's Moving Average promises "Smoother Data" that isn't influenced by the occasional price spike. It works by using the Open and the Close in his formula so that the only time the Ahrens Moving Average will change is when the candlestick is either making new highs or new lows.
Alexander Moving Average - ALXMA
This Moving Average uses an elaborate smoothing formula and utilizes a 7 period Moving Average. It corresponds to fitting a second-order polynomial to seven consecutive observations. This moving average is rarely used in trading but is interesting as this Moving Average has been applied to diffusion indexes that tend to be very volatile.
Deviation Scaled Moving Average - DSMA
The Deviation-Scaled Moving Average is a data smoothing technique that acts like an exponential moving average with a dynamic smoothing coefficient. The smoothing coefficient is automatically updated based on the magnitude of price changes. In the Deviation-Scaled Moving Average, the standard deviation from the mean is chosen to be the measure of this magnitude. The resulting indicator provides substantial smoothing of the data even when price changes are small while quickly adapting to these changes.
Donchian
Donchian Channels are three lines generated by moving average calculations that comprise an indicator formed by upper and lower bands around a midrange or median band. The upper band marks the highest price of a security over N periods while the lower band marks the lowest price of a security over N periods.
Double Exponential Moving Average - DEMA
The Double Exponential Moving Average ( DEMA ) combines a smoothed EMA and a single EMA to provide a low-lag indicator. It's primary purpose is to reduce the amount of "lagging entry" opportunities, and like all Moving Averages, the DEMA confirms uptrends whenever price crosses on top of it and closes above it, and confirms downtrends when the price crosses under it and closes below it - but with significantly less lag.
Double Smoothed Exponential Moving Average - DSEMA
The Double Smoothed Exponential Moving Average is a lot less laggy compared to a traditional EMA . It's also considered a leading indicator compared to the EMA , and is best utilized whenever smoothness and speed of reaction to market changes are required.
Double Smoothed FEMA - DSFEMA
Same as the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA), but uses a faster version of EMA for its calculation.
Double Smoothed Range Weighted EMA - DSRWEMA
Range weighted exponential moving average (EMA) is, unlike the "regular" range weighted average calculated in a different way. Even though the basis - the range weighting - is the same, the way how it is calculated is completely different. By definition this type of EMA is calculated as a ratio of EMA of price*weight / EMA of weight. And the results are very different and the two should be considered as completely different types of averages. The higher than EMA to price changes responsiveness when the ranges increase remains in this EMA too and in those cases this EMA is clearly leading the "regular" EMA. This version includes double smoothing.
Double Smoothed Wilders EMA - DSWEMA
Welles Wilder was frequently using one "special" case of EMA (Exponential Moving Average) that is due to that fact (that he used it) sometimes called Wilder's EMA. This version is adding double smoothing to Wilder's EMA in order to make it "faster" (it is more responsive to market prices than the original) and is still keeping very smooth values.
Double Weighted Moving Average - DWMA
Double weighted moving average is an LWMA (Linear Weighted Moving Average). Instead of doing one cycle for calculating the LWMA, the indicator is made to cycle the loop 2 times. That produces a smoother values than the original LWMA
Ehlers Optimal Tracking Filter - EOTF
The Elher's Optimum Tracking Filter quickly adjusts rapid shifts in the price and yet is relatively smooth when the price has a sideways action. The operation of this filter is similar to Kaufman’s Adaptive Moving
Average
Exponential Moving Average - EMA
The EMA places more significance on recent data points and moves closer to price than the SMA ( Simple Moving Average ). It reacts faster to volatility due to its emphasis on recent data and is known for its ability to give greater weight to recent and more relevant data. The EMA is therefore seen as an enhancement over the SMA .
Fast Exponential Moving Average - FEMA
An Exponential Moving Average with a short look-back period.
Fractal Adaptive Moving Average - FRAMA
The Fractal Adaptive Moving Average by John Ehlers is an intelligent adaptive Moving Average which takes the importance of price changes into account and follows price closely enough to display significant moves whilst remaining flat if price ranges. The FRAMA does this by dynamically adjusting the look-back period based on the market's fractal geometry.
Generalized DEMA - GDEMA
The double exponential moving average (DEMA), was developed by Patrick Mulloy in an attempt to reduce the amount of lag time found in traditional moving averages. It was first introduced in the February 1994 issue of the magazine Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities in Mulloy's article "Smoothing Data with Faster Moving Averages.". Instead of using fixed multiplication factor in the final DEMA formula, the generalized version allows you to change it. By varying the "volume factor" form 0 to 1 you apply different multiplications and thus producing DEMA with different "speed" - the higher the volume factor is the "faster" the DEMA will be (but also the slope of it will be less smooth). The volume factor is limited in the calculation to 1 since any volume factor that is larger than 1 is increasing the overshooting to the extent that some volume factors usage makes the indicator unusable.
Generalized Double DEMA - GDDEMA
The double exponential moving average (DEMA), was developed by Patrick Mulloy in an attempt to reduce the amount of lag time found in traditional moving averages. It was first introduced in the February 1994 issue of the magazine Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities in Mulloy's article "Smoothing Data with Faster Moving Averages''. This is an extension of the Generalized DEMA using Tim Tillsons (the inventor of T3) idea, and is using GDEMA of GDEMA for calculation (which is the "middle step" of T3 calculation). Since there are no versions showing that middle step, this version covers that too. The result is smoother than Generalized DEMA, but is less smooth than T3 - one has to do some experimenting in order to find the optimal way to use it, but in any case, since it is "faster" than the T3 (Tim Tillson T3) and still smooth, it looks like a good compromise between speed and smoothness.
Hull Moving Average (Type 1) - HMA1
Alan Hull's HMA makes use of weighted moving averages to prioritize recent values and greatly reduce lag whilst maintaining the smoothness of a traditional Moving Average. For this reason, it's seen as a well-suited Moving Average for identifying entry points. This version uses SMA for smoothing.
Hull Moving Average (Type 2) - HMA2
Alan Hull's HMA makes use of weighted moving averages to prioritize recent values and greatly reduce lag whilst maintaining the smoothness of a traditional Moving Average. For this reason, it's seen as a well-suited Moving Average for identifying entry points. This version uses EMA for smoothing.
Hull Moving Average (Type 3) - HMA3
Alan Hull's HMA makes use of weighted moving averages to prioritize recent values and greatly reduce lag whilst maintaining the smoothness of a traditional Moving Average. For this reason, it's seen as a well-suited Moving Average for identifying entry points. This version uses LWMA for smoothing.
Hull Moving Average (Type 4) - HMA4
Alan Hull's HMA makes use of weighted moving averages to prioritize recent values and greatly reduce lag whilst maintaining the smoothness of a traditional Moving Average. For this reason, it's seen as a well-suited Moving Average for identifying entry points. This version uses SMMA for smoothing.
IE /2 - Early T3 by Tim Tilson and T3 new
T3 is basically an EMA on steroids, You can read about T3 here:
Integral of Linear Regression Slope - ILRS
A Moving Average where the slope of a linear regression line is simply integrated as it is fitted in a moving window of length N (natural numbers in maths) across the data. The derivative of ILRS is the linear regression slope. ILRS is not the same as a SMA ( Simple Moving Average ) of length N, which is actually the midpoint of the linear regression line as it moves across the data.
Instantaneous Trendline
The Instantaneous Trendline is created by removing the dominant cycle component from the price information which makes this Moving Average suitable for medium to long-term trading.
Kalman Filter
Kalman filter is an algorithm that uses a series of measurements observed over time, containing statistical noise and other inaccuracies. This means that the filter was originally designed to work with noisy data. Also, it is able to work with incomplete data. Another advantage is that it is designed for and applied in dynamic systems; our price chart belongs to such systems. This version is true to the original design of the trade-ready Kalman Filter where velocity is the triggering mechanism.
Kalman Filter is a more accurate smoothing/prediction algorithm than the moving average because it is adaptive: it accounts for estimation errors and tries to adjust its predictions from the information it learned in the previous stage. Theoretically, Kalman Filter consists of measurement and transition components.
Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average - KAMA
Developed by Perry Kaufman, Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) is a moving average designed to account for market noise or volatility. KAMA will closely follow prices when the price swings are relatively small and the noise is low.
Laguerre Filter
The Laguerre Filter is a smoothing filter which is based on Laguerre polynomials. The filter requires the current price, three prior prices, a user defined factor called Alpha to fill its calculation.
Adjusting the Alpha coefficient is used to increase or decrease its lag and its smoothness.
Leader Exponential Moving Average
The Leader EMA was created by Giorgos E. Siligardos who created a Moving Average which was able to eliminate lag altogether whilst maintaining some smoothness. It was first described during his research paper "MACD Leader" where he applied this to the MACD to improve its signals and remove its lagging issue. This filter uses his leading MACD's "modified EMA" and can be used as a zero lag filter.
Linear Regression Value - LSMA ( Least Squares Moving Average )
LSMA as a Moving Average is based on plotting the end point of the linear regression line. It compares the current value to the prior value and a determination is made of a possible trend, eg. the linear regression line is pointing up or down.
Linear Weighted Moving Average - LWMA
LWMA reacts to price quicker than the SMA and EMA . Although it's similar to the Simple Moving Average , the difference is that a weight coefficient is multiplied to the price which means the most recent price has the highest weighting, and each prior price has progressively less weight. The weights drop in a linear fashion.
McGinley Dynamic
John McGinley created this Moving Average to track prices better than traditional Moving Averages. It does this by incorporating an automatic adjustment factor into its formula, which speeds (or slows) the indicator in trending, or ranging, markets.
McNicholl EMA
Dennis McNicholl developed this Moving Average to use as his center line for his "Better Bollinger Bands" indicator and was successful because it responded better to volatility changes over the standard SMA and managed to avoid common whipsaws.
Non-lag moving average
The Non Lag Moving average follows price closely and gives very quick signals as well as early signals of price change. As a standalone Moving Average, it should not be used on its own, but as an additional confluence tool for early signals.
Ocean NMA Moving Average - ONMAMA
Created by Jim Sloman, the NMA is a moving average that automatically adjusts to volatility without being programmed to do so. For more info, read his guide "Ocean Theory, an Introduction"
Parabolic Weighted Moving Average
The Parabolic Weighted Moving Average is a variation of the Linear Weighted Moving Average . The Linear Weighted Moving Average calculates the average by assigning different weights to each element in its calculation. The Parabolic Weighted Moving Average is a variation that allows weights to be changed to form a parabolic curve. It is done simply by using the Power parameter of this indicator.
Probability Density Function Moving Average - PDFMA
Probability density function based MA is a sort of weighted moving average that uses probability density function to calculate the weights. By its nature it is similar to a lot of digital filters.
Quadratic Regression Moving Average - QRMA
A quadratic regression is the process of finding the equation of the parabola that best fits a set of data. This moving average is an obscure concept that was posted to Forex forums in around 2008.
Regularized EMA - REMA
The regularized exponential moving average (REMA) by Chris Satchwell is a variation on the EMA (see Exponential Moving Average) designed to be smoother but not introduce too much extra lag.
Range Weighted EMA - RWEMA
This indicator is a variation of the range weighted EMA. The variation comes from a possible need to make that indicator a bit less "noisy" when it comes to slope changes. The method used for calculating this variation is the method described by Lee Leibfarth in his article "Trading With An Adaptive Price Zone".
Recursive Moving Trendline
Dennis Meyers's Recursive Moving Trendline uses a recursive (repeated application of a rule) polynomial fit, a technique that uses a small number of past values estimations of price and today's price to predict tomorrow's price.
Simple Decycler - SDEC
The Ehlers Simple Decycler study is a virtually zero-lag technical indicator proposed by John F. Ehlers. The original idea behind this study (and several others created by John F. Ehlers) is that market data can be considered a continuum of cycle periods with different cycle amplitudes. Thus, trending periods can be considered segments of longer cycles, or, in other words, low-frequency segments. Applying the right filter might help identify these segments.
Simple Loxx Moving Average - SLMA
A three stage moving average combining an adaptive EMA, a Kalman Filter, and a Kauffman adaptive filter.
Simple Moving Average - SMA
The SMA calculates the average of a range of prices by adding recent prices and then dividing that figure by the number of time periods in the calculation average. It is the most basic Moving Average which is seen as a reliable tool for starting off with Moving Average studies. As reliable as it may be, the basic moving average will work better when it's enhanced into an EMA .
Sine Weighted Moving Average
The Sine Weighted Moving Average assigns the most weight at the middle of the data set. It does this by weighting from the first half of a Sine Wave Cycle and the most weighting is given to the data in the middle of that data set. The Sine WMA closely resembles the TMA (Triangular Moving Average).
Smoothed LWMA - SLWMA
A smoothed version of the LWMA
Smoothed Moving Average - SMMA
The Smoothed Moving Average is similar to the Simple Moving Average ( SMA ), but aims to reduce noise rather than reduce lag. SMMA takes all prices into account and uses a long lookback period. Due to this, it's seen as an accurate yet laggy Moving Average.
Smoother
The Smoother filter is a faster-reacting smoothing technique which generates considerably less lag than the SMMA ( Smoothed Moving Average ). It gives earlier signals but can also create false signals due to its earlier reactions. This filter is sometimes wrongly mistaken for the superior Jurik Smoothing algorithm.
Super Smoother
The Super Smoother filter uses John Ehlers’s “Super Smoother” which consists of a Two pole Butterworth filter combined with a 2-bar SMA ( Simple Moving Average ) that suppresses the 22050 Hz Nyquist frequency: A characteristic of a sampler, which converts a continuous function or signal into a discrete sequence.
Three-pole Ehlers Butterworth
The 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth (as well as the Two pole Butterworth) are both superior alternatives to the EMA and SMA . They aim at producing less lag whilst maintaining accuracy. The 2 pole filter will give you a better approximation for price, whereas the 3 pole filter has superior smoothing.
Three-pole Ehlers smoother
The 3 pole Ehlers smoother works almost as close to price as the above mentioned 3 Pole Ehlers Butterworth. It acts as a strong baseline for signals but removes some noise. Side by side, it hardly differs from the Three Pole Ehlers Butterworth but when examined closely, it has better overshoot reduction compared to the 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth.
Triangular Moving Average - TMA
The TMA is similar to the EMA but uses a different weighting scheme. Exponential and weighted Moving Averages will assign weight to the most recent price data. Simple moving averages will assign the weight equally across all the price data. With a TMA (Triangular Moving Average), it is double smoother (averaged twice) so the majority of the weight is assigned to the middle portion of the data.
Triple Exponential Moving Average - TEMA
The TEMA uses multiple EMA calculations as well as subtracting lag to create a tool which can be used for scalping pullbacks. As it follows price closely, its signals are considered very noisy and should only be used in extremely fast-paced trading conditions.
Two-pole Ehlers Butterworth
The 2 pole Ehlers Butterworth (as well as the three pole Butterworth mentioned above) is another filter that cuts out the noise and follows the price closely. The 2 pole is seen as a faster, leading filter over the 3 pole and follows price a bit more closely. Analysts will utilize both a 2 pole and a 3 pole Butterworth on the same chart using the same period, but having both on chart allows its crosses to be traded.
Two-pole Ehlers smoother
A smoother version of the Two pole Ehlers Butterworth. This filter is the faster version out of the 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth. It does a decent job at cutting out market noise whilst emphasizing a closer following to price over the 3 pole Ehlers .
Variable Index Dynamic Average - VIDYA
Variable Index Dynamic Average Technical Indicator ( VIDYA ) was developed by Tushar Chande. It is an original method of calculating the Exponential Moving Average ( EMA ) with the dynamically changing period of averaging.
Variable Moving Average - VMA
The Variable Moving Average (VMA) is a study that uses an Exponential Moving Average being able to automatically adjust its smoothing factor according to the market volatility.
Volume Weighted EMA - VEMA
An EMA that uses a volume and price weighted calculation instead of the standard price input.
Volume Weighted Moving Average - VWMA
A Volume Weighted Moving Average is a moving average where more weight is given to bars with heavy volume than with light volume. Thus the value of the moving average will be closer to where most trading actually happened than it otherwise would be without being volume weighted.
Zero-Lag DEMA - Zero Lag Double Exponential Moving Average
John Ehlers's Zero Lag DEMA's aim is to eliminate the inherent lag associated with all trend following indicators which average a price over time. Because this is a Double Exponential Moving Average with Zero Lag, it has a tendency to overshoot and create a lot of false signals for swing trading. It can however be used for quick scalping or as a secondary indicator for confluence.
Zero-Lag Moving Average
The Zero Lag Moving Average is described by its creator, John Ehlers , as a Moving Average with absolutely no delay. And it's for this reason that this filter will cause a lot of abrupt signals which will not be ideal for medium to long-term traders. This filter is designed to follow price as close as possible whilst de-lagging data instead of basing it on regular data. The way this is done is by attempting to remove the cumulative effect of the Moving Average.
Zero-Lag TEMA - Zero Lag Triple Exponential Moving Average
Just like the Zero Lag DEMA , this filter will give you the fastest signals out of all the Zero Lag Moving Averages. This is useful for scalping but dangerous for medium to long-term traders, especially during market Volatility and news events. Having no lag, this filter also has no smoothing in its signals and can cause some very bizarre behavior when applied to certain indicators.
Exotic Triggers
This version of Baseline allows the user to select from exotic or source triggers. An exotic trigger determines trend by either slope or some other mechanism that is special to each moving average. A source trigger is one of 32 different source types from Loxx's Exotic Source Types. You can read about these source types here:
Volatility Goldie Locks Zone
This volatility filter is the standard first pass filter that is used for all NNFX systems despite the additional volatility/volume filter used in step 5. For this filter, price must fall into a range of maximum and minimum values calculated using multiples of volatility. Unlike the standard NNFX systems, this version of volatility filtering is separated from the core Baseline and uses it's own moving average with Loxx's Exotic Source Types. The green and red dots at the top of the chart denote whether a candle qualifies for a either or long or short respectively. The green and red triangles at the bottom of the chart denote whether the trigger has crossed up or down and qualifies inside the Goldie Locks zone. White coloring of the Goldie Locks Zone mean line is where volatility is too low to trade.
Volatility Types Included
v1.0 Included Volatility
Close-to-Close
Close-to-Close volatility is a classic and most commonly used volatility measure, sometimes referred to as historical volatility .
Volatility is an indicator of the speed of a stock price change. A stock with high volatility is one where the price changes rapidly and with a bigger amplitude. The more volatile a stock is, the riskier it is.
Close-to-close historical volatility calculated using only stock's closing prices. It is the simplest volatility estimator. But in many cases, it is not precise enough. Stock prices could jump considerably during a trading session, and return to the open value at the end. That means that a big amount of price information is not taken into account by close-to-close volatility .
Despite its drawbacks, Close-to-Close volatility is still useful in cases where the instrument doesn't have intraday prices. For example, mutual funds calculate their net asset values daily or weekly, and thus their prices are not suitable for more sophisticated volatility estimators.
Parkinson
Parkinson volatility is a volatility measure that uses the stock’s high and low price of the day.
The main difference between regular volatility and Parkinson volatility is that the latter uses high and low prices for a day, rather than only the closing price. That is useful as close to close prices could show little difference while large price movements could have happened during the day. Thus Parkinson's volatility is considered to be more precise and requires less data for calculation than the close-close volatility .
One drawback of this estimator is that it doesn't take into account price movements after market close. Hence it systematically undervalues volatility . That drawback is taken into account in the Garman-Klass's volatility estimator.
Garman-Klass
Garman Klass is a volatility estimator that incorporates open, low, high, and close prices of a security.
Garman-Klass volatility extends Parkinson's volatility by taking into account the opening and closing price. As markets are most active during the opening and closing of a trading session, it makes volatility estimation more accurate.
Garman and Klass also assumed that the process of price change is a process of continuous diffusion (Geometric Brownian motion). However, this assumption has several drawbacks. The method is not robust for opening jumps in price and trend movements.
Despite its drawbacks, the Garman-Klass estimator is still more effective than the basic formula since it takes into account not only the price at the beginning and end of the time interval but also intraday price extremums.
Researchers Rogers and Satchel have proposed a more efficient method for assessing historical volatility that takes into account price trends. See Rogers-Satchell Volatility for more detail.
Rogers-Satchell
Rogers-Satchell is an estimator for measuring the volatility of securities with an average return not equal to zero.
Unlike Parkinson and Garman-Klass estimators, Rogers-Satchell incorporates drift term (mean return not equal to zero). As a result, it provides a better volatility estimation when the underlying is trending.
The main disadvantage of this method is that it does not take into account price movements between trading sessions. It means an underestimation of volatility since price jumps periodically occur in the market precisely at the moments between sessions.
A more comprehensive estimator that also considers the gaps between sessions was developed based on the Rogers-Satchel formula in the 2000s by Yang-Zhang. See Yang Zhang Volatility for more detail.
Yang-Zhang
Yang Zhang is a historical volatility estimator that handles both opening jumps and the drift and has a minimum estimation error.
We can think of the Yang-Zhang volatility as the combination of the overnight (close-to-open volatility ) and a weighted average of the Rogers-Satchell volatility and the day’s open-to-close volatility . It considered being 14 times more efficient than the close-to-close estimator.
Garman-Klass-Yang-Zhang
Garman-Klass-Yang-Zhang (GKYZ) volatility estimator consists of using the returns of open, high, low, and closing prices in its calculation.
GKYZ volatility estimator takes into account overnight jumps but not the trend, i.e. it assumes that the underlying asset follows a GBM process with zero drift. Therefore the GKYZ volatility estimator tends to overestimate the volatility when the drift is different from zero. However, for a GBM process, this estimator is eight times more efficient than the close-to-close volatility estimator.
Exponential Weighted Moving Average
The Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) is a quantitative or statistical measure used to model or describe a time series. The EWMA is widely used in finance, the main applications being technical analysis and volatility modeling.
The moving average is designed as such that older observations are given lower weights. The weights fall exponentially as the data point gets older – hence the name exponentially weighted.
The only decision a user of the EWMA must make is the parameter lambda. The parameter decides how important the current observation is in the calculation of the EWMA. The higher the value of lambda, the more closely the EWMA tracks the original time series.
Standard Deviation of Log Returns
This is the simplest calculation of volatility . It's the standard deviation of ln(close/close(1))
Pseudo GARCH(2,2)
This is calculated using a short- and long-run mean of variance multiplied by θ.
θavg(var ;M) + (1 − θ) avg (var ;N) = 2θvar/(M+1-(M-1)L) + 2(1-θ)var/(M+1-(M-1)L)
Solving for θ can be done by minimizing the mean squared error of estimation; that is, regressing L^-1var - avg (var; N) against avg (var; M) - avg (var; N) and using the resulting beta estimate as θ.
Average True Range
The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator, introduced by market technician J. Welles Wilder Jr. in his book New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems, that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
The true range indicator is taken as the greatest of the following: current high less the current low; the absolute value of the current high less the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low less the previous close. The ATR is then a moving average, generally using 14 days, of the true ranges.
True Range Double
A special case of ATR that attempts to correct for volatility skew.
Additional features will be added in future releases.

Southnjes - Auto Fibonacci LevelsI obtained this script elsewhere and modified it. Original Script by "borserman". Thank you for this.
I added some extras that he did not have, hence the uploaded and modified version.
I tried to add this to my "Southnjes- Multi 5MA/5EMA crossover signal + RSI/MACD/STOCH Div signal + Bollinger + Candlestick signals." But there were too many outputs so it had to go separate.
Anyway. You can change the "Fib period" to get the positions you need on the levels. Default is 100 but I will change mine to 25/50/200 and sometimes 180 or 220 which gives me my needed highs and lows for calculations. Play with it as it only takes a minute or so to get the desired H/L.
Golden pocket is mapped in golden.
Green is up, Red is down.
Higher Fib levels can be turned off or on (1.272-3.618).
I hope you all enjoy it and again, don't forget to visit borserman for his other great scripts. :)
🔗Blockchain Fundamentals - Bitcoin's Stock to Flow Ratio🔗Blockchain Fundamentals - Bitcoin's Stock to Flow Ratio by Cryptorhythms
Intro
What is a stock to flow ratio and why is it important? The stock-to-flow ratio of a commodity is the amount of the asset that is held in reserves divided by the amount produced every year.
The higher the stock-to-flow ratio the reduced inflation occurs on the asset annually. Commodities with a higher stock-to-flow ratio are preferred for their scarcity.
How does it relate to Bitcoin?
Today, Bitcoin has a considerable lower stock-to-flow ratio than gold and this is where the opportunity presents itself. Bitcoin’s software has a core component cooked into the protocol in the form of an event called “the halvening”
‘The halving’ is an event that happens every 210,000 blocks or roughly every 4 years where the block reward given to the miners for securing the network gets halved. For example in 2009 the block reward was 50 BTC and today in 2019 it currently sits at 12.5 BTC with the ETA for next halving happening on Mon, 25 May 2020 which will take reward down to 6.25 BTC.
The idea that Bitcoin is the first ever truly verifiable, non-confiscatable fixed asset to exist is an extremely powerful concept. Without its strong and non-inflatable monetary policy Bitcoin would have a futile attempt of being able to disrupt gold and even accrue value in the first place.
Over the next several decades we will see Bitcoin’s stock-to-flow ratio increase significantly into never before seen water. No other asset will have anywhere near the scarcity of bitcoin.
With the incredible influx of talent coming into the industry to build out the infrastructure (custodial, ETF’s, futures) needed to allow legacy financial institutions to dip their toes in the soon smooth and regulated crypto asset waters. The next few years will be very interesting.
You might say "where will all this capital come from to propel bitcoin to new all time highs?"
1. Well asteroid mining is coming which could well eliminate golds scarcity. Your garden variety metallic asteroid could contain as much gold as half the gold humanity has ever mined!
2. Countries/economies with negative interest rate monetary policy and /or heavy quantitative easing. Their currency supply and debt just keep increasing...
3. Countries looking for ways around the USD dominated and US controlled financial systems (Iran, Russia, Venezuela, North Korea, etc)
4. There's tons more I just wanted to highlight a few.
Usage
You can compare Bitcoin with various other precious metals and commodities from the settings panel. I suggest a logarithmic scale for this indicator, other wise most assets are clumped at the bottom:
There's also plots for the forecasted (estimated) SFR ratios after the 2020 and 2024 Halvings.

Account GuardianAccount Guardian: Dynamic Risk/Reward Overlay
Introduction
Account Guardian is an open-source indicator for TradingView designed to help traders evaluate trade setups before entering positions. It automatically calculates Risk-to-Reward ratios based on market structure, displays visual Stop Loss and Take Profit zones, and provides real-time position sizing recommendations.
The indicator addresses a fundamental question every trader should ask before entering a trade: "Does this setup make mathematical sense?" Account Guardian answers this question visually and numerically, helping traders avoid impulsive entries with poor risk profiles.
Core Functionality
Account Guardian performs four primary functions:
Detects swing highs and swing lows to identify logical stop loss placement levels
Calculates Risk-to-Reward ratios for both long and short setups in real-time
Displays visual SL/TP zones on the chart for immediate trade planning
Computes position sizing based on your account size and risk tolerance
The goal is to provide traders with instant feedback on whether a potential trade meets their minimum risk/reward criteria before committing capital.
How It Works
Swing Detection
The indicator uses pivot point detection to identify recent swing highs and swing lows on the chart. These swing points serve as logical areas for stop loss placement:
For Long Trades: The most recent swing low becomes the stop loss level. Price breaking below this level would invalidate the bullish thesis.
For Short Trades: The most recent swing high becomes the stop loss level. Price breaking above this level would invalidate the bearish thesis.
The swing detection lookback period is configurable, allowing you to adjust sensitivity based on your trading timeframe and style.
It automatically adjusts the tp and sl when it is applied to your chart so it is always moving up and down!
Risk/Reward Calculation
Once swing levels are identified, the indicator calculates:
Entry Price: Current close price (where you would enter)
Stop Loss: Recent swing low (for longs) or swing high (for shorts)
Risk: Distance from entry to stop loss
Take Profit: Entry plus (Risk × Target Multiplier)
R:R Ratio: Reward divided by Risk
The R:R ratio is then evaluated against your configured thresholds to determine if the setup is valid, marginal, or poor.
Visual Elements
SL/TP Zones
When enabled, the indicator draws colored boxes on the chart showing:
Red Zone: Stop Loss area - the region between your entry and stop loss
Green/Gold/Red Zone: Take Profit area - colored based on R:R quality
The color coding provides instant visual feedback:
Green: R:R meets or exceeds your "Good R:R" threshold (default 3:1)
Gold: R:R meets minimum threshold but below "Good" (between 2:1 and 3:1)
Red: R:R below minimum threshold - setup should be avoided
Swing Point Markers
Small circles mark detected swing points on the chart:
Green circles: Swing lows (potential support / long SL levels)
Red circles: Swing highs (potential resistance / short SL levels)
Dashboard Panel
The dashboard in the top-right corner displays comprehensive trade planning information:
R:R Row: Current Risk-to-Reward ratio for long and short setups
Status Row: VALID, OK, BAD, or N/A based on R:R thresholds
Stop Loss Row: Exact price level for stop loss placement
Take Profit Row: Exact price level for take profit placement
Pos Size Row: Recommended position size based on your risk parameters
Risk $ Row: Dollar amount at risk per trade
Position Sizing Logic
The indicator calculates position size using the formula:
Position Size = Risk Amount / Risk per Unit
Where:
Risk Amount = Account Size × (Risk Percentage / 100)
Risk per Unit = Entry Price - Stop Loss Price
For example, with a $10,000 account risking 1% per trade ($100), if your entry is at 100 and stop loss at 98 (risk of 2 per unit), your position size would be 50 units.
Input Parameters
Swing Detection:
Swing Lookback: Number of bars to look back for pivot detection (default: 10). Higher values find more significant swing points but may be slower to update.
Target Multiplier: Multiplier applied to risk to calculate take profit distance (default: 2). A value of 2 means TP is 2× the distance of SL from entry.
Risk/Reward Thresholds:
Minimum R:R: Minimum acceptable Risk-to-Reward ratio (default: 2.0). Setups below this show as "BAD" in red.
Good R:R: Threshold for excellent setups (default: 3.0). Setups at or above this show as "VALID" in green.
Account Settings:
Account Size ($): Your trading account size in dollars (default: 10,000). Used for position sizing calculations.
Risk Per Trade (%): Percentage of account to risk per trade (default: 1.0%). Professional traders typically risk 0.5-2% per trade.
Display:
Show SL/TP Zones: Toggle visibility of the colored zone boxes on chart (default: enabled)
Show Dashboard: Toggle visibility of the information panel (default: enabled)
Analyze Direction: Choose to analyze Long only, Short only, or Both directions (default: Both)
How to Use This Indicator
Basic Workflow:
Add the indicator to your chart
Configure your account size and risk percentage in the settings
Set your minimum and good R:R thresholds based on your trading rules
Look at the dashboard to see current R:R for potential long and short entries
Only consider trades where the status shows "VALID" or at minimum "OK"
Use the displayed SL and TP levels for your order placement
Use the position size recommendation to determine lot/contract size
Interpreting the Dashboard:
VALID (Green): Excellent setup - R:R meets your "Good" threshold. This is the ideal scenario for taking a trade.
OK (Gold): Acceptable setup - R:R meets minimum but isn't optimal. Consider taking if other confluence factors align.
BAD (Red): Poor setup - R:R below minimum threshold. Avoid this trade or wait for better entry.
N/A (Gray): Cannot calculate - usually means no valid swing point detected yet.
Best Practices:
Use this indicator as a filter, not a signal generator. It tells you IF a trade makes sense, not WHEN to enter.
Combine with your existing entry strategy - use Account Guardian to validate setups from other analysis.
Adjust the swing lookback based on your timeframe. Lower timeframes may need smaller lookback values.
Be honest with your account size input - accurate position sizing requires accurate inputs.
Consider the target multiplier carefully. Higher multipliers mean larger potential reward but lower probability of hitting TP.
Alerts
The indicator includes four alert conditions:
Good Long Setup: Triggers when long R:R reaches or exceeds your "Good R:R" threshold
Good Short Setup: Triggers when short R:R reaches or exceeds your "Good R:R" threshold
Bad Long Setup: Triggers when long R:R falls below your minimum threshold
Bad Short Setup: Triggers when short R:R falls below your minimum threshold
These alerts can help you monitor multiple charts and get notified when favorable setups appear.
Technical Implementation
The indicator is built using Pine Script v6 and includes:
Pivot-based swing detection using ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow()
Dynamic box drawing for visual SL/TP zones
Table-based dashboard for clean information display
Color-coded visual feedback system
Persistent variable tracking for swing levels
Code Structure:
// Swing Detection
float swingHi = ta.pivothigh(high, swingLen, swingLen)
float swingLo = ta.pivotlow(low, swingLen, swingLen)
// R:R Calculation for Long
float longSL = recentSwingLo
float longRisk = entry - longSL
float longTP = entry + (longRisk * targetMult)
float longRR = (longTP - entry) / longRisk
// Position Sizing
float riskAmount = accountSize * (riskPct / 100)
float posSize = riskAmount / longRisk
Limitations
The indicator uses historical swing points which may not always represent optimal SL placement for your specific strategy
Position sizing assumes you can trade fractional units - adjust accordingly for instruments with minimum lot sizes
R:R calculations assume linear price movement and don't account for gaps or slippage
The indicator doesn't predict price direction - it only evaluates the mathematical viability of a setup
Swing detection has inherent lag due to the lookback period required for pivot confirmation
Recommended Settings by Trading Style
Scalping (1-5 minute charts):
Swing Lookback: 5-8
Target Multiplier: 1-2
Minimum R:R: 1.5
Good R:R: 2.0
Day Trading (15-60 minute charts):
Swing Lookback: 8-12
Target Multiplier: 2
Minimum R:R: 2.0
Good R:R: 3.0
Swing Trading (4H-Daily charts):
Swing Lookback: 10-20
Target Multiplier: 2-3
Minimum R:R: 2.5
Good R:R: 4.0
Why Risk/Reward Matters
Many traders focus solely on win rate, but profitability depends on the combination of win rate AND risk/reward ratio. Consider these scenarios:
50% win rate with 1:1 R:R = Breakeven (before costs)
50% win rate with 2:1 R:R = Profitable
40% win rate with 3:1 R:R = Profitable
60% win rate with 1:2 R:R = Losing money
Account Guardian helps ensure you only take trades where the math works in your favor, even if you're wrong more often than you're right.

SMC Confluence Suite [Pure Score Alerts]🚀 The Missing Link in SMC Trading: Timing & Confluence
Knowing "Where" to trade (Order Blocks/FVG) is only half the battle. Knowing "When" to pull the trigger is what separates amateurs from professionals.
The SMC Confluence Suite is a sophisticated Market Scoring Engine designed to validate your trade setups. It acts as a "Market Weather Station," analyzing Structure, Momentum, Extension, and Volatility in real-time to generate a single Confidence Score (0-100).
🧠 How It Works (The Logic)
This indicator processes 5 key dimensions to calculate a Long and Short Score:
Structure: Is the trend Bullish, Bearish, or in a Pullback?
Momentum: Analyzes RSI and divergence (Bull/Bear Div).
Extension (The Dux Logic): Detects if price is "Parabolic" (Overheated) or at a "Discount". It prevents FOMO buying at the top.
Rotation: Analyzes Volume Churn. Is the volume supporting the move, or is it stalling (distribution)?
Mood: A synthesis of market sentiment (Greed vs. Fear).
📊 The Dashboard
Long/Short Score:
> 80 (Aggressive 🚀): Market is priming for a strong move (Setup B / Unicorn).
60 - 80 (Standard ✅): Healthy trend, safe for Pullbacks (Setup C / Golden Swing).
< 40 (No Entry ⛔): Weak market or dangerous conditions.
Warning Flags:
PARABOLIC 🔥: Price moved too fast. Score resets to 0 to prevent chasing.
HIGH CHURN 🌪️: High volume but no price movement. Potential reversal.
✨ Key Features in V8.1
Score Trace (History): See historical scores printed directly on the chart (above/below candles). This allows you to backtest: "Did my winning trade have a high score?"
Asset Modes: optimized settings for Crypto, Stocks, and Metals (Gold/Silver).
Pure Alerts: Simplified alert system. Get notified only when Score > 80 (The "Sniper" moment).
💡 How to Trade (The Strategy)
Use this script alongside an SMC Structure indicator (like the SMC Strategy Companion).
Setup B (Breakout): Requires Score > 80 + High Volatility.
Setup C (Pullback): Requires Score > 60 + No "Parabolic" warning.
Kill Switch: If the Dashboard shows "PARABOLIC" or "CHURN", cancel all entries immediately.
PyraTime FVG [Pro] | Smart Anchored Price ActionPyraTime FVG is a professional-grade institutional trading suite designed to declutter price action analysis. Unlike standard indicators that flood the chart with infinite zones, this tool uses a proprietary "Velcro" Anchoring Engine that physically snaps Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks to the exact candle geometry.
This tool replaces 4 separate indicators (FVG, Market Structure, Order Blocks, and Trend Dashboard) with a single, performance-optimized Pine Script v6 script.
🎯 Key Features
1. The "Velcro" FVG Engine Most FVG indicators draw boxes that extend infinitely, making charts messy.
Smart Extension: Zones extend to the right but automatically "snap" and cut off the moment price mitigates (fills) them.
Precision Anchoring: Boxes are drawn from the exact wick/body limits of the originating candles—no floating pixels.
Mitigation Tracking: Mitigated zones are instantly dimmed and archived, keeping your chart clean for current price action.
2. Intelligent Structure Mapping (BOS & CHoCH) The script distinguishes between trend continuation and trend reversals:
BOS (Break of Structure): Marked with Dotted Lines. Signals that the current trend is healthy and continuing.
CHoCH (Change of Character): Marked with Solid Lines. Signals a potential major trend reversal (e.g., the first Lower Low after an uptrend).
3. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Scanner A non-intrusive dashboard in the bottom-right corner scans the 1H, 4H, and Daily timeframes in real-time.
IN BULL GAP: Price is currently inside a Higher Timeframe Buying Zone.
IN BEAR GAP: Price is currently inside a Higher Timeframe Selling Zone.
CLEAR: No major HTF obstacles nearby.
📚 How to Trade With This Tool (Tutorial)
Step 1: Check the "Big Picture" Look at the MTF Scanner (Bottom Right).
If the 1H and 4H say "IN BEAR GAP" (Gold), you know the higher timeframe bias is Down. You should prioritize selling opportunities.
Step 2: Wait for Price to Visit a Zone On your current chart (e.g., 5m or 15m), wait for price to enter a Gold FVG (Resistance).
Note: The box will be bright gold. Once price touches it, the script will snap the box to that candle, confirming the test.
Step 3: Confirm with Structure Don't sell blindly. Wait for a CHoCH Label (Change of Character) to appear. This confirms that the short-term uptrend has broken and sellers are stepping in.
Step 4: Target the Opposing Zone Aim for the next unmitigated Teal FVG (Bullish Support) or Order Block below.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
Filter Small Gaps: Uses an ATR filter (default 0.5) to ignore insignificant noise. Increase to 1.0 for a cleaner "Swings Only" view.
Show Midpoint: Toggles a dotted 50% equilibrium line inside every active gap.
Visual Style: Fully customizable colors. Default scheme is PyraTime Desert Gold & Oasis Teal.
Session Opening Bar RangeSession Opening Bar Range (OBR) - Advanced Opening Range Indicator with Statistical Analysis
Overview
The Session First Bar Range (FBR) indicator is a comprehensive tool that captures and projects key levels based on the first bar of a user-defined trading session. Unlike traditional daily opening range indicators, this script allows traders to focus on specific session windows (New York RTH, London, Asia, etc.) and analyze price behavior relative to the initial momentum established in that session's opening bar.
What makes this indicator unique is its combination of three distinct projection methodologies: statistical analysis based on historical range data, Fibonacci extensions, and fixed-point rotation levels commonly used by institutional traders. To our knowledge, this is the only opening range indicator that incorporates statistical standard deviation levels calculated from historical first bar ranges, making it both a technical and probabilistic tool.
Core Concept
The opening range concept is based on the principle that the initial price action of a trading session often sets the tone for the remainder of that session.
Professional traders have long observed that:
The first bar's high and low act as key reference points
Price often respects or breaks these levels with significance
Expansion beyond the opening range tends to occur in measurable increments
This indicator takes these observations and enhances them with:
Historical probability analysis - "Based on the last 60 sessions, price typically extends X standard deviations beyond the opening range"
Proportional projections - Fibonacci-based extensions showing where measured moves typically target
Fixed-point rotations - Institutional rotation levels (e.g., 65 points for NQ, 15 points for ES)
How It Works
Session Detection & First Bar Capture
The indicator uses Pine Script's time() function with timezone support to precisely detect when a trading session begins. When the first bar of the selected timeframe occurs within the session window, the script captures:
High (H): The high of the first bar
Low (L): The low of the first bar
Mid (M): The midpoint (hl2) of the first bar
Critical Detail: These levels are fixed from the first bar only - they do not update as the session progresses. This differs from many "opening range" indicators that use a time period (e.g., first 30 minutes). Here, you select the bar timeframe (default 5-minute), and only that single first bar's range is captured.
Statistical Level Calculation
The indicator maintains a rolling array of the last N session's first bar ranges (default: 60 sessions). For each new session, it calculates:
Average Range: Mean of historical first bar ranges
Standard Deviation: Volatility of those ranges
Projection Levels: High/Low ± (Average Range + Std Dev × Multiplier)
This provides probability-based levels. For example, a +2σ level suggests: "Historically, price extending this far beyond the opening range is a 2-standard-deviation event (approximately 95th percentile)."
Fibonacci Extensions
Using the first bar range as the base unit (100%), the indicator projects Fibonacci levels:
100% extension: One full range above the high / below the low
1.618x extension: (Default) Golden ratio projection
2.618x, 3.618x extensions: Additional Fibonacci levels
Calculation: Range = H - L, then Target = H + (Range × Multiplier) for upside projections.
OR Rotation Levels
These are fixed-point increments from the first bar's high and low. Unlike percentage-based methods, rotations use absolute point values:
NQ traders often use 65-point increments
ES traders often use 15-point increments
Gold/bonds use different values
The indicator draws 5 levels above the high (R+1 through R+5) and 5 below the low (R-1 through R-5), each separated by your specified point increment.

Use Cases
Gap Trading: When price gaps away from previous day's close, the first bar range shows the initial gap acceptance/rejection zone
Breakout Confirmation: Price breaking and holding above the first bar high with volume suggests trend day potential. Rotation levels provide measured targets.
Reversal Identification: Price reaching +2σ statistical level = rare event, potential exhaustion
Range Bound Days: Price oscillating between first bar high/low suggests range-bound session; trade reversals at extremes
Institutional Level Awareness: OR Rotations at 65 points (NQ) align with levels professional traders watch
Technical Notes
The indicator uses request.security() with lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on to ensure the first bar levels are captured correctly
All drawing objects (lines, labels, fills) are managed in arrays with automatic cleanup to prevent memory issues
The statistical calculations use array.avg() and array.stdev() for accurate probability estimates
Rotation levels use individual line variables (like Fibonacci) rather than loops for reliability
Summary
This indicator is original in its combination of three distinct methodologies for projecting levels from a session's opening range:
Statistical Analysis - No other opening range indicator (to our knowledge) calculates standard deviation projections from historical first bar ranges
Time-Based Session Flexibility - Most OR indicators use only daily or fixed time periods; this allows any custom session window
Multiple Projection Methods - Traders can use statistical, Fibonacci, AND rotation levels together or separately
TRADING NAVIGATOR📘 TRADING NAVIGATOR OPERATIONS MANUAL
This manual is designed to turn the script into your complete trading plan.
1. The Golden Rule: Planetary Alignment
Success with this script is not about trading every signal, but waiting for the confluence. Golden Trick: Do not trade on low timeframes (15M) if the trend on the higher timeframe (4H or D) is contrary. The Master Signal: Enter when the RELIABILITY column marks "HIGH" on at least 3 consecutive timeframes.
2. How to open a LONG (Buy) position: Look for these exact conditions on the board: TREND: It should say "BULLISH" (Price above the 200 EMA). ACTION: It should be marked LONG. ENTRY: The price should be near or touching the value indicated in the SUPPORT column. RSI: Ideally between 35 and 45 (healthy pullback) or crossing above 30. Execution: Place your limit order at the ENTRY price on the chart. The TP and SL are your mandatory exit coordinates.
3. How to open a SHORT (Sell) position: Look for these exact conditions on the board: TREND: It should say "BEARISH" (Price below the 200 EMA). ACTION: It should be marked SHORT. ENTRY: The price should be near or touching the value indicated in the RESIST column. (Resistance). RSI: Ideally between 55 and 65 or crossing below 70. Execution: Limit order at the ENTRY price on the chart. Don't chase the price; let it rise to the resistance to enter.
4. Golden Tricks to Gain Consistency: The Volatility Filter: If the VOLAT column shows "HIGH," reduce your position size by half. High volatility means sharp movements that can hit your SL before reaching the TP. The Timeframe Jump: If you see a LONG position on the 15M chart but the trend on the D (Daily) chart is BEARISH, that trade is high risk (pure Scalping). If both are BULLISH, you have a "High Probability Trade." RSI as a sentinel: If the RSI is at 50, the market is indecisive. Wait for it to approach the extremes (30 or 70) so that the Navigator's ACTION has more rebound strength.
5. Recommended Markets:
The TRADING NAVIGATOR is a structure and volatility algorithm, so it works where there is liquidity: Market | Effectiveness | Why |
Cryptocurrencies | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ATR volatility is best exploited in BTC and ETH. |
Indices (Nasdaq/SP500) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ideal for following the TREND column (EMA 200). |
Forex (Majors) | ⭐⭐⭐ Use it on high-volume pairs (EURUSD, GBPUSD). |
Gold / Oil | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very sensitive to the support and resistance levels calculated by the script. |
6. Risk Management (Psychology) | Accepts Stop Loss: The script calculates the SL at 2.0x ATR to give the price "breathing room". If it is touched, the structure has been broken. Don't move the Stop Loss. Partial Taking: When the price has moved 50% of the way to the Take Profit, move your Stop Loss to the ENTRY (Breakeven) price. This ensures that the trade can no longer result in losses.

VIX-SPX Quant Pro SystemQuantitative Analysis of Historical VIX Dynamics and Daily Predictive Frameworks for Volatility ForecastingThe financial ecosystem of the twenty-first century is increasingly governed by the measurement and management of risk, with the Cboe Volatility Index (VIX) serving as the primary benchmark for expected equity market turbulence.1 Originally proposed in the late 1980s by financial economists Menachem Brenner and Dan Galai, the concept of a "Sigma Index" was intended to provide a standardized, frequently updated measure of volatility that could facilitate the creation of futures and options for hedging purposes.3 In 1993, the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) implemented this vision, launching the VIX based on the implied volatility of eight S&P 100 at-the-money options series.1 The subsequent transformation of the VIX in 2003—shifting its underlying to the S&P 500 (SPX) and adopting a model-free methodology developed in conjunction with Goldman Sachs—marked its transition into the "fear gauge" recognized today by market participants worldwide.2Understanding the movement of the VIX historically and developing an equation to predict its daily levels requires a deep synthesis of data infrastructure, mathematical modeling, and an appreciation for the structural mechanics of the options market. The index does not measure historical or statistical volatility in the traditional sense; rather, it reflects the market's expectation of 30-day forward-looking volatility, as conveyed by current SPX option prices.5 This predictive capacity stems from the fact that implied volatility represents the consensus view of professional traders regarding the probability and magnitude of future price movements, adjusted for the insurance premiums they are willing to pay for downside protection.8Historical Data Infrastructure and Tracking MethodologiesTo track VIX movement historically with high fidelity, an analyst must rely on robust data pipelines that provide not only the index levels but also the underlying components of its calculation. Financial time-series data is prone to gaps, timestamp inconsistencies, and errors in Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC) reporting, necessitating the use of specialized vendors that normalize these datasets.10Evaluative Framework for Historical Data ProvidersHistorical tracking of the VIX is most effective when utilizing APIs that offer long-term datasets with high granular resolution. The choice of provider often dictates the scope of analysis, with some catering to end-of-day (EOD) historical research while others provide the tick-level detail required for high-frequency algorithmic modeling.10API ProviderData DepthFrequency SupportBest ForTagX Stock Market API10+ Years1m, 5m, 15m, EODQuant research and backtesting 10EOD Historical Data (EODHD)30+ YearsEOD, 1m, 5m, 1hLong-term trend analysis 11Polygon.ioReal-time & HistTick-level, 1m, EODU.S. algorithmic trading 10Alpha Vantage20+ YearsDaily, IntradayPrototyping and academics 10Yahoo Finance (yfinance)VariableDaily, WeeklyQuick prototyping/casual use 11DatabentoExtensiveHigh-frequency tickLow-latency precisive analysis 11FRED (St. Louis Fed)Since 1990Daily CloseMacroeconomic modeling 16Beyond the broad providers, official sources like the CBOE DataShop provide the most authoritative historical files, including EOD calculation inputs from May 9, 2022, to the present.17 These files contain every strike price, weight, and contribution used to derive the last published VIX value of each day, which is critical for those seeking to understand why the index moved during specific volatility regimes.17 For researchers investigating older data, the St. Louis Fed’s FRED database maintains the VIXCLS series, providing daily closing values dating back to January 1990, alongside historical data for other volatility benchmarks.4The VIX Calculation Methodology: A Deep DiveThe ability to predict VIX levels daily relies on a fundamental understanding of its mechanical derivation. Contrary to common misconceptions, the VIX is not calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model to solve for individual implied volatilities.19 Instead, it employs a model-free formula that captures a weighted sum of variance estimates across a broad range of strike prices.19Mathematical Formula and Strike SelectionThe VIX methodology targets a constant 30-day maturity by interpolating between two tenors of SPX options.19 These "near-term" and "next-term" expirations must have more than 23 days and less than 37 days to maturity.7The core equation for the variance of each tenor ($\sigma^2$) is expressed as:$$\sigma^2 = \frac{2}{T} \sum_i \frac{\Delta K_i}{K_i^2} e^{RT} Q(K_i) - \frac{1}{T} \left( \frac{F}{K_0} - 1 \right)^2$ BMV:IN this calculation:$T$ is the time to expiration (calculated precisely in minutes).19$F$ is the forward index level derived from option prices.7$K_i$ is the strike price of the $i^{th}$ out-of-the-money (OTM) option.19$\Delta K_i$ is the strike price interval, calculated as half the difference between the strikes on either side of $K_i$.20$Q(K_i)$ is the midpoint of the bid-ask quote for strike $K_i$.7$R$ is the risk-free interest rate.19$K_0$ is the first strike price below the forward index level $F$.19Once the variances for the two tenors are calculated, they are linearly interpolated to find the 30-day variance, the square root of which is multiplied by 100 to yield the VIX index value.19Historical Dynamics: Mean Reversion and Asymmetric CorrelationThe development of predictive equations must be grounded in the structural behavior of volatility. The VIX possesses two distinct characteristics that differentiate it from traditional equity assets: it is bounded at both ends and demonstrates powerful mean reversion.26The Central Tendency PrincipleThe VIX gravitates toward a long-term average of approximately 19.5.23 Statistical research establishes that in any given month, the VIX tends to move about 30% of the distance between its current level and its long-term average.30 This "speed of mean reversion" is a critical constant in predictive equations, as it provides a directional bias when volatility deviates significantly from the norm.8The Inverse Correlation with EquitiesThe relationship between the S&P 500 and the VIX is strongly negative, with a historical correlation coefficient typically ranging from -0.70 to -0.80.27 This link is essentially a reflection of the "leverage effect," where price declines increase financial risk and investor fear, driving up option premiums.33 Interestingly, while the two move in opposite directions 80% of the time, the remaining 20% often features positive co-movement.34Technical Roadmaps and Actionable Calculation RulesFor intraday SPX trading on the 3-minute timeframe, mathematical findings can be translated into the following actionable study logic:Rule 1: The "Rule of 16" Intraday RangeThe Rule of 16 converts annualized VIX into a daily expected move by dividing the VIX level by 16.35 For a 3-minute timeframe, this expectation must be scaled by the square root of the number of bars in a trading day (130 bars for a standard 390-minute session):$$Expected Move_{Bar} = \frac{VIX}{16 \cdot \sqrt{Bars_{Day}}}$ MIL:IF the current SPX candle breaks outside these dynamic bands, it signals an "excess volatility" event likely driven by institutional hedging flow.35Rule 2: VIX/VXV Ratio ExhaustionThe spread between 1-month and 3-month volatility identifies when fear is overextended.33Warning Zone (Short SPX): Ratio > 1.0 (Short-term fear > Long-term expectation).38Exhaustion Zone (Long SPX): Ratio > 1.25 (Near-term panic is at its zenith).38Rule 3: Bollinger Band "Rubber Band" ReversionWhen the VIX stretches more than 30% above its 20-period moving average and closes back inside its upper Bollinger Band, it signals a "snap back" where equity prices typically rally as fear recedes.Pine Script V6: Actionable VIX-SPX Signal System (Overlay)This script implements the findings as an overlay for the S&P 500 (SPX) chart. It provides Long/Short ✖ crosses and dynamic "Expected Move" bands based on the VIX.

Advanced custom multi MA signals (EMA/SMA/VWMA/VWAP) Features of Multi Moving Averages
The biggest enemy in trading is "Noise." If you get swayed by minute fluctuations on the chart, you end up missing the forest for the trees.
This indicator (Advanced Custom Multi MA Signals) is not just a simple line. By combining the three core elements of Price, Time, and Volume, it acts as a navigation system that visualizes the market's "true trend." In particular, the ability to analyze 5 moving averages simultaneously across various timeframes is akin to viewing a 3D map of the battlefield.
Understanding Core Concepts
This indicator supports 4 types of moving averages. It is crucial to clearly understand the nature of each tool.
SMA (Simple Moving Average): The most basic average value. Since it produces fewer whipsaws (false signals), it is used as a baseline to judge the "long-term trend."
EMA (Exponential Moving Average): Places more weight on recent prices. It reacts sensitively to market changes, making it advantageous for identifying "entry points."
VWMA (Volume Weighted Moving Average): Incorporates "volume" into the price calculation. It acts as a "false signal filter," weeding out price moves that aren't backed by trading volume.
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price): The benchmark price used by institutional investors for daily trading. It is calculated based on the session, regardless of the period settings. It is considered the "lifeline" of day trading.
Indicator Settings Guide
Open the settings window and tune it to fit your trading style.
MA 01 ~ 05 (Moving Average Settings)
MA Type: Select according to your purpose. (Generally, EMA is recommended for short-term analysis, SMA/VWMA for long-term).
Length: Enter the period you wish to analyze (e.g., 20, 60, 120, 200).
Timeframe: This is the core feature. It allows you to overlay moving averages from a higher timeframe (e.g., 4-hour, Daily) onto the chart you are currently viewing (e.g., 15-minute).
Signal Option (Trading Signals)
Golden Cross (GC) / Death Cross (DC): Captures the moment the short-term line breaks through the long-term line. You can run up to 3 strategies simultaneously.
Ribbon Gradient (Trend Visualization)
Represents the gap between two moving averages with color. As the color deepens and the width expands, it indicates a powerful trend; if the width narrows, it suggests a high probability of a trend reversal.
5 Usage Strategies
The highlight of this indicator is the cross strategy utilizing the "Multi-Timeframe (MTF)" feature. Familiarize yourself with the 5 example strategies below and set up your own strategy based on your expertise.
💡 Tip 1. Do not go against the "Major Trend" (The Authority of the Weekly Candle)
Settings: Set MA5 to .
Interpretation: The Weekly 50 line is the "major trend line" managed by institutions and market makers. If the current price is above this line, maintain only a "Buy (Long)" bias; if below, maintain only a "Sell (Short)" bias. Adhering to this rule alone can help you avoid massive losses.
💡 Tip 2. Highly Reliable "Swing Signal" (Daily Golden Cross)
Settings: In Signal 1, configure the Short MA to and the Long MA to .
Interpretation: A Golden Cross where the 4-Hour 50 EMA breaks above the Daily 50 EMA often signifies a major "trend reversal" rather than a temporary rebound. This provides an ideal entry signal for office workers or swing traders who need high reliability.
💡 Tip 3. 4-Hour Candle as the Standard for "Precision Entry"
Situation: When the Daily trend is rising (Bullish alignment).
Strategy: While watching the 15-minute or 1-hour chart, set the indicator's Signal 2 to the cross of and .
Interpretation: When the Daily chart is in an uptrend, a Golden Cross occurring on the 4-Hour chart marks "the point where a correction (pullback) ends and the rise resumes." This is the entry point with the best risk-to-reward ratio.
💡 Tip 4. Filtering Out "Fake Signals" (The Secret of Volume)
Strategy: When creating a cross signal, try using VWMA (Volume Weighted) for the Long MA, even if you use EMA for the Short MA.
Reason: A Golden Cross caused simply by a rise in price can be a trap. However, if it breaks through the heavy VWMA line accompanied by volume, it is strong evidence that "genuine liquidity" has entered.
💡 Tip 5. Remember the "Hierarchy" (Higher Timeframe Priority Rule)
Principle: If a Golden Cross (Buy Signal) appears on the 4-Hour chart, but the Daily chart is in a Death Cross (Sell Signal) state, do not enter.
Interpretation: A signal from a lower timeframe cannot overcome the power of a higher timeframe. The professional approach is to trade with significant volume only when signals align (Sync) in the order of Weekly > Daily > 4-Hour. Keep this indicator's dashboard feature on and always check the status of higher timeframes.
Signal Generation Principle (Operating Mechanism)
Signals are generated when the set short-term moving average and long-term moving average cross each other.
📈 1. Golden Cross (BUY = Buy Signal)
Situation: The moment the short-term MA crosses upward from below the long-term MA.
Principle: It implies that recent buying pressure has broken through the resistance level accumulated over a long period.
📉 2. Death Cross (SELL = Sell Signal)
Situation: The moment the short-term MA crosses downward from above the long-term MA.
Principle: It implies that recent selling pressure has collapsed the long-term support line.

Investment Caution and Disclaimer
Before using this indicator for actual trading, please strictly read the contents below.
① Auxiliary indicators are a "Compass," not a "Book of Prophecy."
This indicator is merely a tool that mathematically calculates and visualizes past price data. A "magic indicator" that predicts future price fluctuations 100% accurately or guarantees profit does not exist. The signals provided are for reference only and must never be the sole basis for entry/exit decisions.
② The responsibility for all investments lies with "Yourself."
Financial investment (Cryptocurrencies, Stocks, Futures, etc.) involves high volatility and is a risky activity that can result in the loss of some or all of the principal. The final responsibility for all trading results (profits and losses) incurred by utilizing this indicator lies entirely with the investor. The distributor and developer accept no legal responsibility for investment results under any circumstances.
③ Past data does not guarantee the future.
Even a Golden Cross that fit perfectly in backtesting or past charts may operate differently in tomorrow's market situation (News, Macroeconomics, Unexpected Variables, etc.). Do not rely solely on technical analysis; you must conduct fundamental analysis and risk management in parallel.
④ Risk management is the top priority.
No matter how promising a signal appears, "all-in trading" (investing all assets in a single trade) is a shortcut to bankruptcy. More important than the indicator itself is adhering to the principles of strict scaling in (split buying) and Stop-Loss.
ZAR Sentiment IndexOverview
The ZAR Sentiment Index (ZSI) is a composite macro-financial indicator designed to measure the prevailing risk and carry regime for the South African Rand (ZAR).
The South African Rand is a high-beta emerging market currency that is heavily influenced by:
Global risk sentiment
US dollar strength
Commodity dynamics
Interest-rate differentials
Sovereign risk perceptions
Rather than focusing on price momentum or technical patterns, the ZSI aggregates key macro drivers into a single normalised index, allowing traders and analysts to identify whether the environment is supportive, neutral, or hostile for ZAR exposure.
The indicator is intended as a regime filter, not a trade-entry signal.
Methodology
The ZSI combines six macro- and market-based components that have historically explained a large share of USDZAR and ZAR carry performance.
Each component is standardised using a rolling z-score, allowing variables with different units and frequencies to be combined consistently.
All macroeconomic series are sourced on a daily timeframe and forward-filled, ensuring the indicator functions correctly on daily, weekly, and monthly charts.
Components
1. US Dollar Strength (DXY)
A stronger US dollar is typically negative for emerging market currencies, including ZAR.
Contribution: Negative
Implementation: Negative z-score of DXY
2. Global Risk Sentiment (VIX)
The VIX index is used as a proxy for global risk aversion.
Rising volatility signals risk-off conditions and carry trade vulnerability
Contribution: Negative
Implementation: Negative z-score of VIX
3. Commodity Support (Gold)
South Africa retains a meaningful commodity linkage, particularly to gold.
Stronger gold prices tend to support ZAR through terms-of-trade effects
Contribution: Positive
Implementation: Positive z-score of XAUUSD
Implementation: Positive z-score of XAUUSD
4. Interest Rate Differential (SA 10Y – US 10Y)
The yield spread between South African and US government bonds proxies the compensation investors demand to hold South African assets.
Wider spreads are generally supportive for ZAR
Contribution: Positive
Implementation: Z-score of the SA 10-year minus US 10-year yield spread
5. Sovereign Risk Proxy (Government Debt-to-GDP)
Where sovereign CDS data is unavailable, South Africa Government Debt-to-GDP is used as a structural proxy for sovereign risk.
Rising debt ratios reflect deteriorating fiscal sustainability
Contribution: Negative
Implementation: Negative z-score of Debt-to-GDP
6. Monetary Policy Differential (SARB – Fed)
The carry attractiveness of ZAR is influenced by the policy rate differential between South Africa and the United States.
The South African interbank rate is used as a proxy for the SARB policy stance
The US policy rate is used as the Federal Reserve proxy
Contribution: Positive
Implementation: Z-score of the SARB–Fed rate gap
Index Construction
Each standardized component is weighted (equal weights by default) and aggregated into a single composite score:
Positive values indicate a supportive macro environment for ZAR
Negative values indicate deteriorating conditions
An optional exponential moving average is applied to reduce noise.
Regime Interpretation
Above 0 - Supportive - Macro tailwinds for ZAR; carry conditions favourable
0 to –0.5 - Neutral / Cautious - Range-bound conditions; reduced conviction
–0.5 to –1.0 - Warning - Rising risk; carry trades vulnerable
Below –1.0 - Stress - Elevated probability of sharp USDZAR upside moves
Background shading is used to visually highlight warning and stress regimes.
Practical Applications
USDZAR Analysis
Supportive regimes tend to align with sustained USDZAR downside trends
Warning and stress regimes often precede volatility spikes and sharp reversals
Carry Trade Risk Management
The index helps identify when ZAR carry trades are structurally supported versus vulnerable
Particularly useful for filtering exposure in ZARJPY and EM FX baskets
Macro Context
The ZSI provides macro confirmation or divergence relative to price action
It is most effective when combined with key technical levels and event risk
Timeframe Considerations
The indicator is designed to function across all chart timeframes
Macroeconomic inputs are sourced daily and forward-filled
Daily and weekly charts are recommended for regime analysis
Important Notes
This indicator is not predictive and does not generate trade signals
It measures prevailing macro conditions rather than forecasting price direction
ZAR can remain resilient in mildly negative regimes and volatile in neutral regimes
The strongest signals occur when extreme ZSI readings align with major macro events or key price levels.
Summary
The ZAR Sentiment Index (ZSI) provides a disciplined, transparent framework for understanding the macro forces driving the South African Rand.
By integrating global risk, US dollar dynamics, commodities, interest rate differentials, and sovereign risk into a single normalized measure, the indicator helps traders distinguish between supportive environments, neutral conditions, and genuine risk-off regimes.
Bullish Structure (PAID) by @Crypto_alphabitTVC:GOLD
This script is for bullish structure........
___________________________________
to confirm the bullish structure , the price has to confirm the second higher low to confirm the uptrend ( ⬜️ The key level ) then the other levels will be automatic calculated with mathematic formula .
This indicator contains some important levels as below ....
__________________________________________________
🟥Stop Loss / lowest point
This level is the lowest point or 0 level & you can consider it as Stop Loss
🟫Strong support(0)
This level is very strong support and the price may not come back to that price after making the key level
⬜️The key Level
This level is the second higher low so the bullish structure confirmed for uptrend
🟪accumulation level(1) , 🟪accumulation level(2) , 🟪accumulation level(3)
The price is slowly moving between the 3 accumulation levels but if the price crossed the 3 levels with momentum , means we are in a very strong uptrend
🟫Strong Support(1) , 🟫Strong Support(2)
Those 2 levels are very strong support and strong resistance in the same time
⬜️Resistance
This level is very important as if the price closed above it so it is high probability that the price will go to the safe Exit
🟩Safe Exit
This is safest exit
🟨Golden Exit
This level is the golden exit if the price reached
🟦Extra Exit(1) , 🟦Extra Exit(2) , 🟦Extra Exit(3)
The price may or may not reach the 3 extra exit levels , it depends on the chart analysis, Gaps and momentum .
🟦Final Exit
This is the final target for that wave
In this indicator you can change some inputs to make it perfect as below ....
__________________________________________________
* Lookback Period for High/Low
* Line Width
* Show/ Hide Price Labels
* Label Size
* Extend Drawing for X Bars
* Swing Sensitivity ( Very important)
*** To confirm the bullish momentum you can add MACD indicator as a helper ***
*** To confirm the targets you can match the targets with Gaps ***

NeuraLine v1Neuraline is a daily market-regime indicator designed to help traders stay aligned with the dominant trend while avoiding noise, false flips, and emotional overtrading.
Instead of reacting to every small move, Neuraline focuses on structural trend confirmation, combining trend strength, regime persistence, and higher-timeframe context into one clean visual layer.
1. Anti-Flip Trend Logic
Neuraline uses a buffered EMA regime system with built-in hysteresis.
This means the indicator does not flip trend on every minor crossover, but only when price confirms a meaningful shift.
Result: fewer false signals, more stability.
2. Market Strength Filter (ADX)
Trend changes are only validated when market strength confirms the move.
This prevents signals during low-volatility, choppy conditions where most indicators fail.
3. Clear Market Regime: Bullish or Bearish
Neuraline always operates in one of two states:
• Bullish regime
• Bearish regime
No confusion. No over-analysis.
Every signal is contextualized within the current regime.
4. Higher-Timeframe Structure via 50 / 200 Moving Averages
The integrated 50 & 200 day moving averages provide long-term market context:
• MA lines automatically adapt their color based on bullish or bearish alignment
• A subtle ribbon highlights the structural zone between them
This makes it instantly clear whether price action is occurring within a healthy trend or against macro structure.
5. Minimal, Emotion-Free Signals
Buy and sell signals are only triggered on confirmed regime transitions, not on every fluctuation. Signals are displayed as clean, non-intrusive icons directly on the chart — no clutter, no noise.
6. Designed for Daily & Swing Traders
Neuraline is optimized for:
• Daily charts
• Swing trading
• Position management
• Market bias confirmation
It is not a scalping tool.
It is a decision-filter.
