Multi-timeframe 24 moving averages + BB+SAR+Supertrend+VWAP █ OVERVIEW
The script allows to display up to 24 moving averages ("MA"'s) across 5 timeframes plus two bands (Bollinger Bands or Supertrend or Parabolic SAR or VWAP bands) each from its own timeframe.
The main difference of this script from many similar ones is the flexibility of its settings:
- Bulk enable/disable and/or change properties of several MAs at once.
- Save 3 of your frequently used templates as presets using CSV text configurations.
█ HOW TO USE
Some use examples:
In order to "show 31, 50, 200 EMAs and 20, 100, 200 SMAs for each of 1H, 4H, D, W, M timeframes using blue for short MA, yellow for mid MA and red for long MA" use the settings as shown on a screenshot below.
In order to "Show a band of chart timeframe MA's of lengths 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 100 and 200 plus some 1H, 4H, D and W MAs. Be able to quickly switch off the band of chart tf's MAs. For chart timeframe MA's only show labels for 21, 100 and 200 EMAs". You can set TF1 and TF2 to chart's TF and set you fib MAs there and configure fixed higher timeframe MAs using TF3, TF4 and TF5 (e.g. using 1H, D and W timeframes and using 1H 800 in place of 4H 200 MA). However, quicker way may be using CSV - the syntax is very simple and intuitive, see Preset 2 as it comes in the script. You can easily switch chart tf's band of MAs by toggling on/off your chart timeframe TF's (in our example, TF1 and TF2).
The settings are either obvious or explained in tooltips.
Note 1: When using group settings and CSV presets do not forget that individual setting affected will no have any effect. So, if some setting does not work, check whether it is overridden with some group setting or a CSV preset.
Note 2: Sometimes you can notice parts of MA's hanging in the air, not lasting up to the last bar. This is not a bug as explained on this screenshot:
█ FOR DEVELOPERS
The script is a use case of my CSVParser library, which in turn uses Autotable library, both of which I hope will be quite helpful. Autotable is so powerful and comprehensive that you will hardly ever wish to use normal table functions again for complex tables.

nPOC Levels by Tyler### Explanation of the Pine Script
This Pine Script identifies and displays weekly naked Points of Control (nPOCs) on a TradingView chart. An nPOC represents a Point of Control (POC) from a previous week that has not been revisited by price action in subsequent weeks. These nPOCs are extended to the right as horizontal lines, indicating potential support or resistance levels.
#### Script Overview
1. **Indicator Declaration:**
```pinescript
//@version=5
indicator("Weekly nPOCs", overlay=true)
```
- The script is defined as a version 5 Pine Script.
- The `indicator` function sets the script's name ("Weekly nPOCs") and specifies that the indicator should be overlaid on the price chart (`overlay=true`).
2. **Function to Calculate POC:**
```pinescript
f_poc(_hl2, _vol) =>
var float vol_profile = na
if (na(vol_profile))
vol_profile := array.new_float(100, 0.0)
_bin_size = (high - low) / 100
for i = 0 to 99
if _hl2 >= low + i * _bin_size and _hl2 < low + (i + 1) * _bin_size
array.set(vol_profile, i, array.get(vol_profile, i) + _vol)
max_volume = array.max(vol_profile)
poc_index = array.indexof(vol_profile, max_volume)
poc_price = low + poc_index * _bin_size + _bin_size / 2
poc_price
```
- The function `f_poc` calculates the Point of Control (POC) for a given period.
- It takes two parameters: `_hl2` (the average of the high and low prices) and `_vol` (volume).
- A volume profile array (`vol_profile`) is initialized to store volume data across different price bins.
- The price range between the high and low is divided into 100 bins (`_bin_size`).
- The function iterates over each bin, accumulating the volumes for prices within each bin.
- The bin with the maximum volume is identified as the POC (`poc_price`).
3. **Variables to Store Weekly Data:**
```pinescript
var float poc = na
var float prev_poc = na
var line poc_lines = na
if na(poc_lines)
poc_lines := array.new_line(0)
```
- `poc` stores the current week's POC.
- `prev_poc` stores the previous week's POC.
- `poc_lines` is an array to store lines representing nPOCs. The array is initialized if it is `na` (not initialized).
4. **Calculate Weekly POC:**
```pinescript
is_new_week = ta.change(time('W')) != 0
if (is_new_week)
prev_poc := poc
poc := f_poc(hl2, volume)
if not na(prev_poc)
line new_poc_line = line.new(x1=bar_index, y1=prev_poc, x2=bar_index + 100, y2=prev_poc, color=color.red, width=2)
label.new(x=bar_index, y=prev_poc, text="nPOC", style=label.style_label_down, color=color.red, textcolor=color.white)
array.push(poc_lines, new_poc_line)
```
- `is_new_week` checks if the current bar is the start of a new week using the `ta.change(time('W'))` function.
- If it's a new week, the previous week's POC is stored in `prev_poc`, and the current week's POC is calculated using `f_poc`.
- If `prev_poc` is not `na`, a new line (`new_poc_line`) representing the nPOC is created, extending it to the right (for 100 bars).
- A label is created at the `prev_poc` level, marking it as "nPOC".
- The new line is added to the `poc_lines` array.
5. **Remove Old Lines:**
```pinescript
if array.size(poc_lines) > 52
line.delete(array.shift(poc_lines))
```
- This section ensures that only the last 52 weeks of nPOCs are kept to avoid cluttering the chart.
- If the `poc_lines` array contains more than 52 lines, the oldest line is deleted using `array.shift`.
6. **Plot the Current Week's POC as a Reference:**
```pinescript
plot(poc, title="Current Weekly POC", color=color.blue, linewidth=2, style=plot.style_line)
```
- The current week's POC is plotted as a blue line on the chart for reference.
#### Summary
This script calculates and identifies weekly Points of Control (POCs) and marks them as nPOCs if they remain untouched by subsequent price action. These nPOCs are displayed as horizontal lines extending to the right, providing traders with potential support or resistance levels. The script also manages the number of lines plotted to maintain a clear and uncluttered chart.
Futures Settlement [NeoButane]Traders use settlement prices as both support/resistance and as a target for price to trend towards. The intention of this script is to provide possible entry and exit levels for swing and scalp trades by drawing horizontal lines of true settlement prices provided by TradingView.
The settlement price, which is calculated daily, is used to determine the profit/loss of a trader's futures position. Prior to the daily close, price settlement of futures contracts is performed by taking the average of its traded price during a specified period of time.
Usage
The settlement prices, shown as horizontal lines, serve as support or resistance for entry or exit. There are hundreds of ways to combine this with favorite indicators, or it can be used as levels for pure price action traders.
See how settlement price levels can be used in confluence with oscillators.
Configuration
Toggles to show each settlement. Reprint shows prior weeks or months after they've ended. Back-adjusted futures, which affect expired futures price history on continuous futures charts, should only be enabled on non-standard charts to match the user's chart settings.
What this script does
This script plots the daily, weekly, and monthly settlements for futures, including an average for the two most recent weekly or monthly settlements. The weekly settlement uses the last day of the week's daily settlement and the monthly settlement uses the last day of the month's daily settlement. For symbols that do not have settlement prices, which will be almost if not all symbols that are not futures, the settlement price instead becomes price at the last second before the daily/weekly/monthly close. In those cases, this script becomes a tool for automatically plotting daily/weekly/monthly closes.
See below for two different bitcoin charts. The chart on top is a non-futures chart and a futures chart is at the bottom. Note that CME bitcoin futures settle 4 hours (1500 CST) before bitcoin's daily close (UTC).
How this script works
TradingView has a built-in ability to display daily settlements instead of the actual daily close. This can be enabled in chart settings for futures on the daily timeframe and there is an argument for Pine Script to do so as well. Because settlement times are different for multiple products during the day, the script uses the settlement price from daily timeframe, which is guaranteed to be correct because TradingView is wonderful. I accidentally found the undocumented backadjustment and settlement_at_close when I was trying to use ticker.inherit() to create a symbol with its daily close time changed to another symbol's, which I still haven't figured out. TradingView has since added documentation for both of them, but there's still an ambiguous 'etc.' in the description of ticker.inherit() so maybe there's more secret arguments...
The script is able to be used on non-standard charts by using ticker.standard(), but back-adjustment will need to be changed by input to match chart settings.

Supertrend + BB + Consecutive Candles + QQE + EMA [Pineify]Overview
This indicator, developed by Pineify, is a comprehensive tool designed to assist traders in making informed decisions by combining multiple technical analysis methods. It integrates Supertrend, Bollinger Bands (BB), Consecutive Candles, Quantitative Qualitative Estimation (QQE), and Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) into a single, cohesive script. This multi-faceted approach allows traders to analyze market trends, volatility, and potential buy/sell signals with greater accuracy.
Key Features
1. Supertrend: Utilizes the Supertrend indicator to identify the prevailing market trend. It provides clear buy and sell signals based on the direction of the trend.
2. Bollinger Bands (BB): Measures market volatility and identifies overbought or oversold conditions. The script calculates the middle, upper, and lower bands, along with the Bollinger Band Width (BBW) and Bollinger Band %B (BBR).
3. Consecutive Candles: Detects sequences of consecutive bullish or bearish candles, providing signals when a specified number of consecutive candles are detected.
4. Quantitative Qualitative Estimation (QQE): Combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with a smoothing factor to generate buy and sell signals based on the QQE methodology.
5. Exponential Moving Averages (EMA): Includes both fast and slow EMAs to identify potential crossovers, which are used as buy and sell signals.
How It Works
- Supertrend: The Supertrend indicator is calculated using a factor and ATR length. It plots the trend direction and generates buy/sell signals when the trend changes.
- Bollinger Bands: The BB indicator calculates the middle band as a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing prices. The upper and lower bands are derived by adding and subtracting a multiple of the standard deviation from the middle band.
- Consecutive Candles: This feature counts the number of consecutive candles that close higher or lower than the previous candle. When the count reaches a specified threshold, it generates a buy or sell signal.
- QQE: The QQE indicator smooths the RSI values and calculates the QQE Fast and QQE Slow lines. Buy and sell signals are generated based on the crossover of these lines.
- EMA: The script calculates fast and slow EMAs and generates buy/sell signals based on their crossovers.
How to Use
1. Inputs: Customize the indicator settings through the input parameters:
- Supertrend Factor and ATR Length
- BB Length
- Consecutive Candles Counting
- QQE RSI Length
- Fast and Slow EMA Lengths
- Enable/Disable Alerts for various signals
2. Alerts: Set up alerts for Supertrend, Consecutive Candles, and EMA crossovers. Alerts can be enabled or disabled based on user preference.
3. Visualization: The indicator plots the Supertrend, Bollinger Bands, and EMA lines on the chart. It also marks buy and sell signals with arrows and labels for easy identification.
Concepts Underlying Calculations
- Supertrend: Based on the Average True Range (ATR) to determine the trend direction and potential reversal points.
- Bollinger Bands: Utilizes standard deviation to measure market volatility and identify overbought/oversold conditions.
- Consecutive Candles: A method to detect momentum by counting consecutive bullish or bearish candles.
- QQE: Enhances the traditional RSI by smoothing it and using a dynamic threshold to generate signals.
- EMA: A widely used moving average that gives more weight to recent prices, making it responsive to market changes.
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to combine multiple technical analysis methods into a single, easy-to-use script. By integrating these diverse techniques, it provides a comprehensive view of market conditions and potential trading opportunities.
Open Interest liquidation map [Ox_kali]This script is inspired by @LeviathanCapital work on aggregating Open Interest , as presented in the Open Interest Suite Aggregated script. This script aims to provide a liquidation map of Open Interest by identifying significant anomalies across multiple trading platforms. By integrating data from Binance, BitMEX, and Kraken, this script tries to offer a comprehensive and detailed view of Open Interest movements and attempts to define zones of interest.
Key Points
1. Multiple Data Sources : The script retrieves Open Interest data from several trading platforms, including Binance (USDT, USD, BUSD), BitMEX (USD, USDT), and Kraken (USD).
2. Anomaly Detection : Utilizes a simple moving average (SMA) to calculate the average size of Open Interest candles and identify anomalies based on a user-specified size factor.
3. Background Coloring : Offers an option to color the background of the charts based on detected anomalies, allowing for clear visualization of significant movements.
4. Dynamic Support and Resistance Zones : Defines and dynamically updates support and resistance zones based on Open Interest anomalies.
5. Alerts : Configures alerts to notify the user when an Open Interest anomaly is detected.
Trading Utility
This script can be useful for monitoring significant changes in Open Interest and potential liquidation zones across multiple platforms. The main trading applications include:
1. Identifying Liquidation Points : By detecting Open Interest anomalies, it is possible to identify potential liquidation points where significant price movements might occur.
2. Multi-Platform Analysis : By aggregating Open Interest data from multiple platforms, a more comprehensive market overview is obtained.
3. Detecting Support and Resistance Zones : Dynamic support and resistance zones help identify key price levels where trend reversals might occur.
4. Customized Alerts: Anomaly alerts allow for automated responses to market changes.
Conclusion
The “Open Interest liquidation map ” script is an experimental tool for analyzing Open Interest across multiple trading platforms. Inspired by Leviathan’s work, this script attempts to identify liquidation and interest zones. This is an experimental version, and I welcome any comments and feedback for improvement.
Please note that the Open Interest liquidation map is not a guarantee of future market performance and should be used in conjunction with proper risk management. Always ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the indicator’s methodology and its limitations before making any investment decisions. Additionally, past performance is not indicative of future results.
[blackcat] L1 Zero-Lag EMA BandThe Zero-Lag EMA Band is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to provide traders with a comprehensive view of market trends. This innovative indicator merges the Zero-Lag EMA, a derivative of the traditional Exponential Moving Average, with Bollinger Bands to create a unique trend indicator that is less laggy and more responsive to market changes.
The Zero-Lag EMA Band is calculated by taking the standard deviation of the price data and adding or subtracting it from the Zero-Lag EMA to create an upper band and a lower band. This process results in a trend band that can help traders identify potential support and resistance levels, providing them with a more accurate assessment of the market's behavior.
The Zero-Lag EMA Band is particularly useful for traders who need to react quickly to market changes. It offers a more timely assessment of potential trend reversals, allowing traders to capitalize on market opportunities and mitigate risk.
The indicator's design is based on the principle of Zero-Lag, which aims to reduce the lag associated with traditional EMAs. This feature makes the Zero-Lag EMA Band a powerful tool for traders who want to stay ahead of the market and make more informed decisions.
In summary, the Zero-Lag EMA Band is a comprehensive and responsive tool for traders looking to identify and capitalize on market trends. It is a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, offering a more accurate and timely assessment of potential trend reversals and providing a more comprehensive view of the market's behavior.
Certainly! Let's go through the Pine Script code line by line to understand its functionality:
//@version=5
This line specifies the version of Pine Script being used. In this case, it's version 5.
indicator(' L1 Zero-Lag EMA Band', shorttitle='L1 ZLEMA Band', overlay=true)
This line defines the indicator with a title and a short title. The `overlay=true` parameter means that the indicator will be plotted on top of the price data.
length = input.int(21, minval=1, title='Length')
This line creates an input field for the user to specify the length of the EMA. The default value is 21, and the minimum value is 1.
mult = input(1, title='Multiplier')
This line creates an input field for the user to specify the multiplier for the standard deviation, which is used to calculate the bands around the EMA. The default value is 1.
src = input.source(close, title="Source")
This line creates an input field for the user to specify the data source for the EMA calculation. The default value is the closing price of the asset.
// Define the smoothing factor (alpha) for the EMA
alpha = 2 / (length + 1)
This line calculates the smoothing factor alpha for the EMA. It's a common formula for EMA calculation.
// Initialize a variable to store the previous EMA value
var float prevEMA = na
This line initializes a variable to store the previous EMA value. It's initialized as `na` (not a number), which means it's not yet initialized.
// Calculate the zero-lag EMA
emaValue = na(prevEMA) ? ta.sma(src, length) : (src - prevEMA) * alpha + prevEMA
This line calculates the zero-lag EMA. If `prevEMA` is not a number (which means it's the first calculation), it uses the simple moving average (SMA) as the initial EMA. Otherwise, it uses the standard EMA formula.
// Update the previous EMA value
prevEMA := emaValue
This line updates the `prevEMA` variable with the newly calculated EMA value. The `:=` operator is used to update the variable in Pine Script.
// Calculate the upper and lower bands
dev = mult * ta.stdev(src, length)
upperBand = emaValue + dev
lowerBand = emaValue - dev
These lines calculate the upper and lower bands around the EMA. The bands are calculated by adding and subtracting the product of the multiplier and the standard deviation of the source data over the specified length.
// Plot the bands
p0 = plot(emaValue, color=color.new(color.yellow, 0))
p1 = plot(upperBand, color=color.new(color.yellow, 0))
p2 = plot(lowerBand, color=color.new(color.yellow, 0))
fill(p1, p2, color=color.new(color.fuchsia, 80))
These lines plot the EMA value, upper band, and lower band on the chart. The `fill` function is used to color the area between the upper and lower bands. The `color.new` function is used to create a new color with a specified alpha value (transparency).
In summary, this script creates an indicator that displays the zero-lag EMA and its bands on a trading chart. The user can specify the length of the EMA and the multiplier for the standard deviation. The bands are used to identify potential support and resistance levels for the asset's price.
In the context of the provided Pine Script code, `prevEMA` is a variable used to store the previous value of the Exponential Moving Average (EMA). The EMA is a type of moving average that places a greater weight on the most recent data points. Unlike a simple moving average (SMA), which is an equal-weighted average, the EMA gives more weight to the most recent data points, which can help to smooth out short-term price fluctuations and highlight the long-term trend.
The `prevEMA` variable is used to calculate the current EMA value. When the script runs for the first time, `prevEMA` will be `na` (not a number), indicating that there is no previous EMA value to use in the calculation. In such cases, the script falls back to using the simple moving average (SMA) as the initial EMA value.
Here's a breakdown of the role of `prevEMA`:
1. **Initialization**: On the first bar, `prevEMA` is `na`, so the script uses the SMA of the close price over the specified period as the initial EMA value.
2. **Calculation**: On subsequent bars, `prevEMA` holds the value of the EMA from the previous bar. This value is used in the EMA calculation to give more weight to the most recent data points.
3. **Update**: After calculating the current EMA value, `prevEMA` is updated with the new EMA value so it can be used in the next bar's calculation.
The purpose of `prevEMA` is to maintain the state of the EMA across different bars, ensuring that the EMA calculation is not reset to the SMA on each new bar. This is crucial for the EMA to function properly and to avoid the "lag" that can sometimes be associated with moving averages, especially when the length of the moving average is short.
In the provided script, `prevEMA` is used to simulate a zero-lag EMA, but as mentioned earlier, there is no such thing as a zero-lag EMA in the traditional sense. The EMA already has a very minimal lag due to its recursive nature, and any attempt to reduce the lag further would likely not be accurate or reliable for trading purposes.
Please note that the script provided is a conceptual example and may not be suitable for actual trading without further testing and validation.
PriceCatch Volume Analysis Fixed RangeHi TV Community.
It's been sometime since I published any script / utility. But today, I am back with a new script.
Volume Analysis
Studying volume when in trade or before taking one is very important as seasoned traders would tell you. So, this script helps you to look at volume over a specific interval from current bar. You will have to set the look-back period in the settings dialog.
The script will then show over that period :
Number of Up and Down bars
Volume Ratio of Up Volume over Down Volume
Actual Up and Down Volume
Percentage of Up Volume to Down Volume
I use this information in all my trades and hope that you will also find this Script useful.
To my knowledge, I have not seen another volume analysis script that helps see volume in the way this script does.
NOTE:
This script does not give any buy or sell signal if that is what you are looking for. But if you see that Up Volume is 3 times Down Volume, then that should mean something to you. So also when price is slipping down.
Disclaimer
I am sharing this Script without any warranties as to its usability. Use it only if you like it. As always when it comes to trading you and you alone are responsible for your actions.
All the best with your trades.

Daily Close GAP Detector [Yosiet]User Manual for "Daily Close GAP Detector "
Overview
This script is designed to help traders identify and react to significant gaps in daily market prices. It plots daily open and close prices and highlights significant gaps with a cross. The script is particularly useful for identifying potential breakouts or reversals based on these gaps.
Configuration
GAP Close Threshold: This input allows you to set a threshold for the gap size that you consider significant. The default value is 0.001.
Timeframe Seeker: This input lets you choose the timeframe for the gap detection. The default is 'D' for daily.
Features
Daily Open and Close Lines: The script plots daily open and close prices. If the close price is lower than the open price, the line is colored red; otherwise, it's green.
Gap Detection: It calculates the difference between the current day's close and the previous day's close, both adjusted for the selected timeframe. If this difference exceeds the threshold, it's considered a significant gap.
Significant Gap Indicator: A cross is plotted on the chart to indicate significant gaps. The color of the cross indicates whether the gap is a short or long gap: red for short gaps and green for long gaps.
Alert Conditions: The script sets up alert conditions for short and long gap breakouts. You can customize the alert messages to include details like the ticker symbol, interval, price, and exchange.
How to Use
Add the Script to Your Chart: Copy the script into the Pine Script editor on TradingView and add it to your chart.
Configure Inputs: Adjust the "GAP Close Threshold" and "Timeframe Seeker" inputs as needed.
Review the Chart: The script will overlay daily open and close prices on your chart, along with crosses indicating significant gaps.
Set Alerts: Use the script's alert conditions to set up alerts for short and long gap breakouts. You can customize the alert messages to suit your trading strategy.
Extending the Code
To extend this script, you can modify the gap detection logic, add more indicators, or integrate it with other scripts for a more comprehensive trading strategy. Remember to test any changes thoroughly before using them in live trading.

Purpose: Measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions in the price of a stock or other asset.
Implementation: The script allows users to set the length of the RSI calculation and defines overbought and oversold levels, which can be visually represented on the chart. Additional features include options to fill and/or color the background of the chart when overbought or oversold levels are reached.
Divergence (Div):
Purpose: Identifies instances where the price of an asset is moving in the opposite direction of a momentum indicator, such as the RSI in this script. Divergences can signal potential trend reversals.
Implementation: The script provides options for users to define the conditions under which divergences are identified, including the source of price tops/bottoms, detection limits, and the maximum lookback period for divergence analysis. It visually highlights these divergences on the chart.
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD):
Purpose: Tracks the relationship between two moving averages of a security's price. The MACD is used to identify trend direction, momentum, and potential reversal points through crossovers.
Implementation: The script calculates the MACD line and its signal line. It plots buy or sell markers based on crossovers between these two lines, indicating potential entry or exit points.
Script Category:
Category: Technical Analysis / Indicators and Strategies
Subcategory: Oscillators (for RSI and MACD) and Trend Analysis (for Divergence)
Usage:
The script is designed for traders and analysts who rely on technical analysis to make informed decisions in the financial markets. By integrating RSI, divergence detection, and MACD analysis into a single script, users can gain a more nuanced understanding of market conditions, potentially improving their trading strategies.
Customization and Visualization:
Users can customize various parameters, including lengths for RSI and MACD, overbought/oversold levels, divergence detection criteria, and visual aspects like colors and marker sizes.
The script provides visual cues directly on the price chart, making it easy to spot potential buy/sell signals, overbought/oversold conditions, and divergences without the need to switch between different indicators.
Dual_MACD_trendingINFO:
This indicator is useful for trending assets, as my preference is for low-frequency trading, thus using BTCUSD on 1D/1W chart
In the current implementation I find two possible use cases for the indicator:
- as a stand-alone indicator on the chart which can also fire alerts that can help to determine if we want to manually enter/exit trades based on the signals from it (1D/1W is good for non-automated trading)
- can be used to connect to the Signal input of the TTS (TempalteTradingStrategy) by jason5480 in order to backtest it, thus effectively turning it into a strategy (instructions below in TTS CONNECTIVITY section)
Trading period can be selected from the indicator itself to limit to more interesting periods.
Arrow indications are drawn on the chart to indicate the trading conditions met in the script - light green for HTF crossover, dark green for LTF crossover and orange for LTF crossunder.
Note that the indicator performs best in trending assets and markets, and it is advisable to use additional indicators to filter the trading conditions when market/asset is expected to move sideways.
DETAILS:
It uses a couple of MACD indicators - one from the current timeframe and one from a higher timeframe, as the crossover/crossunder cases of the MACD line and the signal line indicate the potential entry/exit points.
The strategy has the following flow:
- If the weekly MACD is positive (MACD line is over the signal line) we have a trading window.
- If we have a trading window, we buy when the daily macd line crosses AND closes above the signal line.
- If we are in a position, we await the daily MACD to cross AND close under the signal line, and only then place a stop loss under the wick of that closing candle.
The user can select both the higher (HTF) and lower (LTF) timeframes. Preferably the lower timeframe should be the one that the Chart is on for better visualization.
If one to decide to use the indicator as a strategy, it implements the following buy and sell criterias, which are feed to the TTS, but can be also manually managed via adding alerts from this indicator.
Since usually the LTF is preceeding the crossover compared to the HTF, then my interpretation of the strategy and flow that it follows is allowing two different ways to enter a trade:
- crossover (and bar close) of the macd over the signal line in the HIGH TIMEFRAME (no need to look at the LOWER TIMEFRMAE)
- crossover (and bar close) of the macd over the signal line in the LOW TIMEFRAME, as in this case we need to check also that the macd line is over the signal line for the HIGH TIMEFRAME as well (like a regime filter)
The exit of the trade is based on the lower timeframe MACD only, as we create a stop loss equal to the lower wick of the bar, once the macd line crosses below the signal line on that timeframe
SETTINGS:
All of the indicator's settings are for the vanilla/general case.
User can set all of the MACD parameters for both the higher and lower (current) timeframes, currently left to default of the MACD stand-alone indicator itself.
The start-end date is a time filter that can be extermely usefull when backtesting different time periods.
TTS SETTINGS (NEEDED IF USED TO BACKTEST WITH TTS)
The TempalteTradingStrategy is a strategy script developed in Pine by jason5480, which I recommend for quick turn-around of testing different ideas on a proven and tested framework
I cannot give enough credit to the developer for the efforts put in building of the infrastructure, so I advice everyone that wants to use it first to get familiar with the concept and by checking
by checking jason5480's profile www.tradingview.com
The TTS itself is extremely functional and have a lot of properties, so its functionality is beyond the scope of the current script -
Again, I strongly recommend to be thoroughly epxlored by everyone that plans on using it.
In the nutshell it is a script that can be feed with buy/sell signals from an external indicator script and based on many configuration options it can determine how to execute the trades.
The TTS has many settings that can be applied, so below I will cover only the ones that differ from the default ones, at least according to my testing - do your own research, you may find something even better :)
The current/latest version that I've been using as of writing and testing this script is TTSv48
Settings which differ from the default ones:
- from - False (time filter is from the indicator script itself)
- Deal Conditions Mode - External (take enter/exit conditions from an external script)
- 🔌Signal 🛈➡ - Dual_MACD: 🔌Signal to TTSv48 (this is the output from the indicator script, according to the TTS convention)
- Sat/Sun - true (for crypto, in order to trade 24/7)
- Order Type - STOP (perform stop order)
- Distance Method - HHLL (HigherHighLowerLow - in order to set the SL according to the strategy definition from above)
The next are just personal preferenes, you can feel free to experiment according to your trading style
- Take Profit Targets - 0 (either 100% in or out, no incremental stepping in or out of positions)
- Dist Mul|Len Long/Short- 10 (make sure that we don't close on profitable trades by any reason)
- Quantity Method - EQUITY (personal backtesting preference is to consider each backtest as a separate portfolio, so determine the position size by 100% of the allocated equity size)
- Equity % - 100 (note above)
EXAMPLES:
If used as a stand-alone indicator, the green arrows on the bottom will represent:
- light green - MACD line crossover signal line in the HTF
- darker green - MACD line crossover signal line in the LTF
- orange - MACD line crossunder signal line in the LTF
I recommend enabling the alerts from the script to cover those cases.
If used as an input to the TTS, we'll get more decorations on the chart from the TTS itself.
In the example below we open a trade on the next day of LTF crossover, then a few days later a crossunder in the LTF occurs, so we set a SL at the low of the wick of this day. Few days later the price doesn't recover and hits that SL, so the position is closed.
OTT CollectionIf you are not yet familiar with OTT, this script could provide an introduction to help you get started.
"Optimized Trend Tracker" (OTT) is an effective trend-following indicator created by Anıl Özekşi . It aims to detect the current trend direction based on an elegant mathematical construct. The key defining characteristic of OTT is its reliance on a trailing-stop mechanism. This enables OTT to identify price movements and follow the price until a reversal occurs. The widespread adoption of OTT in various algo-trading platforms has fostered the development of diverse applications of the indicator over time. Examining its history, eight distinct applications emerge.
1) OTT - Optimized Trend Tracker
2) TOTT - Twin Ott
3) OTT Channel - Half Channel & Fibonacci Channel
4) RISOTTO - Rsi Ott
5) SOTT - Stochastic Ott
6) HOTT & LOTT - Highest-Lowest Ott + Sum Option
7) ROTT - Relative Ott
8) FT - "Fırsatçı" Trend
BONUS: RTR - Relative True Range
Each system functions as an independent indicator and the "OTT Collection" is intended to present all of them in a single script.
ORIGINALITY
Primarily, this script introduces previously unreleased OTT applications on Tradingview (RISOTTO, ROTT, FT). In contrast to previously published examples that treat OTT as a variable, this script portrays OTT as a function, rendering it adaptable for more intricate computations. Consequently, OTT has evolved into a versatile tool capable of facilitating complex analyses. Furthermore, this script offers an innovative feature that permits the blocking of consecutive signals in the same direction, catering to user preferences. (This feature is crucial for all indicators utilizing band structures such as TOTT and HOTT-LOTT).
USAGE
It is simple to use. The settings section of the indicator groups the parameters. In first group, the System parameter allows you to select the OTT system you want to display on the chart. Activating the Pyramiding parameter enables the display of consecutive signals in the same direction (for TOTT and HOTT-LOTT). In the second group you can change the display options with the Barcolor, Signal and Bars parameters. The OTT system you select is configured with the parameters in the group with the corresponding system heading. (For example, suppose you select OTT CHANNEL in the system parameter. The parameters defining the channels are grouped under the heading "OTT CHANNELS" in the settings section.) Also the parameters you chose are displayed in table form on the chart screen. The table also presents the total number of bars on the chart and the number of signals generated by the selected system.
MECHANICS
Let's take a look at how the indicator works. This indicator incorporates eight distinct OTT systems, each characterized by unique parameters, lines, and signals. (Exception: OTT Channel does not include any referenced signals.)
1) WHAT IS "OTT"?
OTT comprises two lines: Support and Target. There's an up-trending market when the Support is superior to the Target, and a down-trending market when the Support is inferior to the Target. It is governed by two parameters. The Support (moving average) is determined by the Length parameter, while the Multiplier parameter is employed for percentage calculations. Lower values are adept at capturing short-term fluctuations, whereas higher values are more adept at identifying long-term trends. These principles apply to all parameters within the indicator.
DETAILED INFO : The OTT function in the script automatically performs the calculation process described in this section. So, if you know how OTT works you can skip the details. To comprehend its functioning, it's essential to grasp the "MOST" indicator, also devised by Anıl Özekşi. The fundamental principle of MOST involves creating bands that function akin to a trailing stop-loss. Initially, a moving average, referred to as the 'Support,' is established. (Anıl Özekşi employs VAR/VIDYA as the moving average type in all his systems.) Subsequently, the Support line is adjusted both upward and downward by a percentage multiplier to establish a band system. In the context of the trailing stop-loss concept, when the Support line approaches either the lower or upper band, the respective band ceases to move in parallel with the Support line and becomes horizontal. Consequently, the Support always intersects the band at some point. The values of the upper or lower bands, determined by this intersection, are referred to as the MOST line. OTT is generated by consolidating the values of MOST shifted upwards and downwards by half the coefficient percentage into a single line using the same method as above, and calculating the value of this line from two bars ago. Support is the data series of OTT and it serves as a source in OTT function. The OTT line is named as "Target" in this scipt. Support and Target will automatically vary according to the OTT application selected in the "System" parameter.
2) WHAT IS "TOTT"?
Twin OTT , also known as the "OTT Band," involves three parameters: Length, Multiplier, and Band Multiplier. It consists of three lines: Support, Upper Line, and Lower Line. OTT is determined by the Length and Multiplier parameters, while TOTT is calculated by adjusting OTT upwards and downwards as per the Band Multiplier parameter. The indicator generates signals based on the intersections of the Support and these two new OTT levels.
3) WHAT IS "OTT CHANNEL"?
Similar to TOTT, the OTT CHANNEL is also based on shifted OTT levels, employing a similar calculation method. The primary distinction lies in the fact that TOTT has a single Band Multiplier, whereas OTT CHANNEL incorporates two line multipliers for the band. It encompasses four parameters: Length, Multiplier, Upper Line Multiplier, and Lower Line Multiplier. OTT is defined by the Length and Multiplier parameters. The Upper Line Multiplier and Lower Line Multiplier parameters establish the channel boundaries by shifting the OTT line. Subsequently, levels are drawn between the upper and lower lines. The additional Channel Type parameter determines which levels are displayed on the chart. The "Half Channel" option draws channels shifted by half the coefficient. The "Fibonacci Channel" option draws channels shifted by 0.382 and 0.618 coefficients. The "Both" option plots all levels.
4) WHAT IS "RISOTTO"?
OTT also has application examples in momentum oscillators. RISOTTO utilizes the RSI indicator and operates with three parameters. The RSI is defined by the Length 1 parameter, while the Support is determined by the Length 2 parameter. The Multiplier parameter is utilized for percentage calculations. RISOTTO comprises two lines: Support and Target. To ensure more stable calculations, a constant (+1000) is added to the oscillator average when applying OTT to momentum oscillators. This approach eradicates nonsensical results stemming from percentage calculations when the oscillator reaches a value of 0. The indicator generates signals based on the intersection of these two lines.
5) WHAT IS "SOTT"?
Stochastic OTT is an another example of application on oscillator. Its working principle is akin to that of RISOTTO. It operates with three parameters. The Stochastic %k is defined by the Length 1 parameter, while the Stochastic %d is determined by the Length 2 parameter. The Multiplier parameter is utilized for percentage calculations. SOTT comprises two lines: Support and Target. The indicator generates signals based on the intersection of these two lines.
6) WHAT IS "HOTT-LOTT"?
OTT can be applied to the highest and lowest series as well. HOTT-LOTT operates with three parameters: Length, Multiplier, and Sum N Bars. The highest and lowest series are defined by the Length parameter. The Multiplier parameter is utilized for percentage calculations. It encompasses two lines: Upper Line and Lower Line, where HOTT employs the highest series and LOTT uses the lowest series. If the 'High' price surpasses HOTT, the indicator generates Long signals. Similarly, if the 'Low' price falls below LOTT, the indicator generates Short signals. When the Sum N Bars option is activated, signals are generated based on the confirmation concept for N bars.
7) WHAT IS "ROTT"?
Relative OTT serves as a valuable tool for long-period filters. ROTT operates with two parameters. The Support is determined by the length parameter and equals twice the moving average. The Multiplier parameter is utilized for percentage calculations. The indicator generates signals based on the intersection of these two lines.
8) WHAT IS "FT"?
"Fırsatçı" (opportunistic) Trend is a system that revolves around two levels, namely major and minor OTT. It operates with three parameters: Length, Major Multiplier, and Minor Multiplier. FT comprises two lines, Support and Target. The indicator generates signals based on the intersection of these two lines.
9) WHAT IS "RTR"?
Relative True Range is not an OTT system; however, it serves as a complementary feature. It does not have any referenced signals. RTR is devised to obtain a normalized result of the current market volatility. It operates with two parameters: ATR, which is determined by the Length 1 parameter, and RTR, defined by the Length 2 parameter.
A TIP
If any indicator is defined in function form instead of the OTT function, the applications can also be adapted for different indicators. E.g. Supertrend, PMAX, AlphaTrend, etc.
UPDATE
Anıl Özekşi is a competent algotrader who shares his work with open sources. I will update the indicator as new applications are released.

BTC hash rate oscillatorOVERVIEW:
This script looks to identify entry point opportunities when moving averages over Bitcoin's hash rate are indicative of Miner capitulation. The script implements an oscillator based on Charles Capriole's "Hash Ribbons & Bitcoin Bottoms" concept. It analyses the short-term and long-term moving averages of Bitcoin's hash rate and then identifies potential entry opportunities from this.
KEY FEATURES:
Signal Generation: The script identifies entry points when the short-term moving average crosses under the long-term moving average and the rate of change falls below a specified threshold. These conditions suggest potential trading opportunities.
Historical Signals: Optionally the script displays historical signals, indicating past instances where hash rate conditions suggested favourable entry points. Users can also assess the script's historical performance.
USAGE:
The generated opportunities can be used as potential entry points for BTC. The script provides visual cues on the chart (blue labels above the miner capitulation zones) for identification of signals. Customisable moving average lengths and threshold values are supported, which allow adaptation to various strategies.
CONSIDERATIONS:
Validation: It's recommended that careful backtesting over historical data be done before acting on any identified opportunities.
User Discretion: Trading decisions should not rely solely on this script. Users should exercise their judgment and consider market conditions.
Note: This script identifies opportunities based on historical data and should be used with caution, as past performance is not indicative of future results.
Volume Delta Trailing Stop [LuxAlgo]The ' Volume Delta Trailing Stop ' indicator uses Lower Time Frame (LTF) volume delta data which can provide potential entries together with a Volume-Delta based Trailing Stop-line .
🔶 USAGE
Our 'Volume Delta Trailing Stop' script can show potential entries/Stop Loss lines
A trigger line needs to be broken before a position is taken, after which a Volume Delta-controlled Trailing Stop-line is created:
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Volume rises when bought or sold
🔹 When the opening price appears on the chart, a buy/sell order has been executed.
If that order is less than the available supply of that particular price, volume will rise, without moving the price.
🔹 When the opening price is the same as the closing price, the volume of that bar can be seen as "neutral volume" (nV); nor "up", nor "down" volume.
Example
A buy order doesn't fill the first available supply in the order book. This price will be the opening price with a certain volume.
When at closing time, price still hasn't moved (the first available supply in the order book isn't filled, or no movement downwards),
the closing price will be equal to the opening price, but with volume. This can be seen as "neutral volume (nV)".
🔹 Delta Volume (ΔV): this is "up volume" minus "down volume"
🔹 Standard volume is colored red when closing price is lower than opening price ( = "down volume").
🔹 Standard volume is colored green when closing price is higher OR equal (nV) than opening price ( = "up volume").
🔹 Neutral Volume
The "Neutral-Volume" is considered "Up-Volume" - setting will dictate whether nV is considered as green 'buy' volume or not.
🔶 EXAMPLE
29 July 10:00 -> 10:05, chart timeframe 5 minutes, open 29311.28, close 29313.89
close > open, so the volume (39.55) is colored green ("up volume").
(The Volume script used in the following examples is the open-source publication Volume Columns w. Alerts (V) from LucF )
Let's zoom to the 1-minute TF:
The same period is now divided into more bars, volume direction (color) is dependable on the difference between open and close.
Counting up and down volume gives a more detailed result, it remains in an upward direction though):
(ΔV = +15.51)
Let's further zoom in to the 1-second TF:
The same period is now divided into even more bars (more possibility for changing direction on each bar)
Here we see several bars that haven't moved in price, but they have volume ("neutral" volume).
(neutral volume is coloured light green here, while up volume is coloured darker green)
When we count all green and red volume bars, the result is quite different:
(ΔV = -0.35)
In total more volume is found when price went downwards, yet price went up in these 5 minutes.
-> This is the heart of our publication, when this divergence occurs, you can see a barcolor changement:
• orange: when price went up, but LTF Volume was mainly in a downward direction.
• blue: when price went down, but LTF Volume was mainly in an upwards direction.
When we split the green "up volume" into "up" and "neutral", the difference is even higher
(here "neutral volume" is colored grey):
(ΔV = -12.76; "up" - "down")
🔶 CONCEPTS
bullishBear = current bar is red but LTF volume is in upward direction -> blue bar
bearishBull = current bar is green but LTF volume is in downward direction -> orange bar
🔹 Potential positioning - forming of Trigger-line
When not in position, the script will wait for a divergence between price and volume direction. When found, a Trigger-line will appear:
• at high when a blue bar appears ( bullishBear ).
• at low when an orange bar appears ( bearishBull ).
Next step is when the Trigger-line is broken by close or high/low (settings: Trigger )
Here, the closing price went under the grey Trigger-line -> bearish position:
🔹 Trailing Stop-line
When the Trigger-line is broken, the Trailing Stop-line (TS-line) will start:
• low when bullish position
• high when bearish position
You can choose (settings -> Trigger -> Close or H/L ) whether close price or high/low should break the Trigger-line
When alerts are enabled ("Any alert() function call"), you'll get the following message:
• ' signal up ' when bullish position
• ' signal down' when bearish position
After that, the TS-line will be adjusted when:
• a blue bullishBear bar appears when in bullish position -> lowest of {low , previous blue bar's high or orange bar's low}
• an orange bearishBull bar appears when in bearish position -> highest of {high, previous blue bar's high or orange bar's low}
When alerts are enabled ("Any alert() function call"), and the TS-line is broken, you'll get the following message:
• ' TS-line broken down ' when out bullish position
• ' TS-line broken up ' when out bearish position
🔹 Reference Point
Default the direction of price will be evaluated by comparing closing price with opening price.
When open and close are the same, you'll get "neutral volume".
You can use "previous close" instead (as in built-in volume indicator) to include gaps.
If close equals open , but close is lower than previous close , it will be regarded as " down volume ",
similar, when close is higher than previous close , it will be regarded as " up volume "
Note, the setting applies for the current timeframe AND Lower timeframe:
Based on: " open " (close - open)
Based on: " previous close " (close - previous close)
🔹 Adjustment
When the TS-line changes, this can be adjusted with a percentage of price , or a multiple of " True Range "
Default (Δ line -> Adjustment - 0)
Δ line -> Adjustment 0.03% (of price)
Δ line -> Mult of TR (10)
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 LTF: choose your Lower TimeFrame: 1S (seconds), 5S, 10S, 15S, 30S, 1 minute)
🔹 Trigger: Choose the trigger for breaking the Trigger-line ; close or H/L (high when bullish position, low when bearish position)
🔹 Δ line ( Trailing Stop-line ): add/subtract an adjustment when the TS-line changes ( default: Adjustment ):
• Adjustment ( default: 0 ): add/subtract an extra % of price
• Mult of TR : add/subtract a multiple of True Range
🔹 Based on: compare closing price against:
• open
• previous close
🔹 "Neutral-Volume" is considered "Up-Volume" : this setting will dictate whether nV is considered as green 'buy' volume or not.
🔶 CONSIDERATIONS
🔹 The lowest LTF (1S) will give you more detail and will get data close to tick data.
However, a maximum of 100,000 intrabars can be used in calculations .
This means on the daily chart you won't see anything since 1 day ~ 86400 seconds. (just over 1 bar)
-> choose a lower chart timeframe, or choose a higher LTF (5S, 10S, ... 1 minute)
🔹 Always choose a LTF lower than the current chart timeframe.
🔹 Pine Script™ code using this request.security_lower_tf() may calculate differently on historical and real-time bars, leading to repainting .
RSI with J-Line ***For ease of use, I recommend changing the J Histogram to a line indicator, then it works like the KDJ Stochastic indicator. Full disclosure, I created this script with the help of GPT. This script was inspired by the KDJ Stochastic indicator by Dreadblitz***
The "RSI with J-Line" script is essentially a modified Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator with an added histogram component. Here's how to use the different components of the script:
RSI Line (Blue): The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It oscillates between zero and 100, and is typically used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in a market. Traditionally, readings over 70 are considered overbought, and readings under 30 are considered oversold. However, these are not strict rules and can vary depending on the market and the overall trend.
RSI Smooth Line (Orange): This is the simple moving average of the RSI. It helps to smooth out the RSI and to identify the overall trend of the momentum. When the RSI line crosses above the RSI Smooth line, it might indicate that the momentum is moving upwards. When the RSI line crosses below the RSI Smooth line, it might indicate that the momentum is moving downwards.
RSI J-Line (Red Histogram): The J-Line is an additional line that's calculated as 3*rsiSmooth - 2*rsi. It's similar to the %J line in the Stochastic indicator and is designed to provide quicker signals than the RSI or RSI Smooth line. When the histogram is above the 0 line, it might indicate bullish momentum. When it's below the 0 line, it might indicate bearish momentum.
Please note that these interpretations are standard for these types of indicators, but actual market behavior can be complex and is influenced by many factors. Indicators should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, not in isolation. Always take into account other market information and indicators before making trading decisions.
Monte Carlo Price ProbabilitiesMonte Carlo simulations have been a popular tool in the world of finance, risk analysis, and decision making for decades. In this post, I will take you through the history of Monte Carlo simulations and explain how I implemented this powerful technique in Pine Script. This implementation can help traders and investors in various time frames to better understand the potential future price movements of financial instruments based on historical data.
History of Monte Carlo Simulations
The Monte Carlo method was named after the famous Monte Carlo Casino in Monaco, as the technique involves using random sampling to approximate solutions to mathematical problems. The method was first introduced by Stanislaw Ulam, a mathematician working on the Manhattan Project in the 1940s. Ulam realized that using random sampling could provide approximate solutions to complex problems that were otherwise difficult or impossible to solve analytically.
Over the years, Monte Carlo simulations have found applications in various fields, including physics, engineering, and finance. In the world of finance, the method has been used to model stock price movements, option pricing, portfolio optimization, and risk management.
Implementation in Pine
In my implementation of Monte Carlo simulations in Pine, I created a script that allows users to input several parameters such as the arbitrary price, number of simulations, number of steps into the future, and the start bar index. The start bar index is a crucial setting for running the script on lower time frames, as it helps to ensure that the script runs smoothly for a given symbol.
The script then calculates the log return of each bar and categorizes them into green (positive) or red (negative) moves. It uses these historical price movements to calculate the probabilities of future price movements for each step in the simulation.
The core of the Monte Carlo simulation lies in the `monte()` function, which generates random numbers to determine if the next price movement will be green or red, and then selects a move size based on its probability. The `sim()` function runs multiple simulations using the `monte()` function and stores the results in an array.
Finally, the script calculates the probability of the arbitrary price being reached in the future based on the results of the simulations. It also plots the probability on the chart, allowing users to visually assess the potential future price movements of the financial instrument.
Using the Monte Carlo Simulation
To use the Monte Carlo simulation in Pine, you need to input the desired parameters such as the arbitrary price, number of simulations, number of steps into the future, and the start bar index. For some symbols, you may need to set the start bar index to around 10k to ensure that the script runs smoothly.
Once you have input the parameters and run the script, you will see the probability of reaching the arbitrary price plotted on the chart. This can provide a valuable insight into the potential future price movements of the financial instrument based on historical data, helping you make more informed trading and investment decisions.
Conclusion
Monte Carlo simulations have a rich history and have proven to be a valuable tool in various fields, including finance. My implementation of Monte Carlo simulations in Pine allows traders and investors to better understand the potential future price movements of financial instruments in various time frames. By evaluating the probabilities of reaching specific price levels, users can make more informed decisions and better manage their risk.
FibonRSI / ErkOziHello,
This software is a technical analysis script written in the TradingView Pine language. The script creates a trading indicator based on Fibonacci retracement levels and the RSI indicator, providing information about price movements and asset volatility by using Bollinger Bands.
There are many different scripts in the market that draw RSI and Fibonacci retracement levels. However, this script was originally designed by me and shared publicly on TradingView.
***The indicator uses RSI (Relative Strength Index) and Bollinger Bands (BB) as the basis for the FibonRSI strategy. RSI measures the strength of a price movement, and BB measures the volatility of an asset. The FibonRSI strategy is based on the idea that the Fibonacci ratios and RSI can be used to predict a asset's price retracement levels.
***The script allows for various parameters to be adjusted. Users can specify the price source type and adjust the periods for RSI and Bollinger Bands. The standard deviation number for Bollinger Bands can also be customized.
***The script calculates the current RSI indicator position and the basic, upper, and lower levels of Bollinger Bands. It then calculates and draws the Fibonacci retracement levels. The color of the RSI line is determined by the upper and lower distribution levels of Bollinger Bands. Additionally, the color of the Fibonacci retracement levels can also be customized by the user.
***This script can be used to determine potential buy and sell signals using Fibonacci retracement levels and RSI. For example, when the RSI is oversold and the price is close to a Fibonacci retracement level, it can be interpreted as a buying opportunity. Similarly, when the RSI is overbought and the price is close to a Fibonacci retracement level, it can be interpreted as a selling opportunity.
***The script takes input parameters such as the price source used for calculation, the period for the RSI indicator, the period for the Moving Average in Bollinger Bands, and the number of standard deviations used in Bollinger Bands.
***The script's conditions include elements such as calculating the current position of the RSI indicator, calculating the upper and lower Bollinger Bands, calculating the dispersion factor, and calculating Fibonacci levels.
***The parameters in the code can be adjusted for calculation, including the price type used, the RSI period, the Moving Average period for BB, and the standard deviation count for BB. After this, the current position of the RSI, Moving Average, and standard deviation for BB are calculated. After calculating the upper and lower BB, the levels above and below the average are calculated using a specific dispersion constant.
CONDITIONS FOR THE SCRIPT
current_rsi = ta.rsi(src, for_rsi) // Current position of the RSI indicator
basis = ta.ema(current_rsi, for_ma)
dev = for_mult * ta.stdev(current_rsi, for_ma)
upper = basis + dev
lower = basis - dev
dispersion = 1
disp_up = basis + (upper - lower) * dispersion
disp_down = basis - (upper - lower) * dispersion
// Fibonacci Levels
f100 = basis + (upper - lower) * 1.0
f78 = basis + (upper - lower) * 0.78
f65 = basis + (upper - lower) * 0.65
f50 = basis
f35 = basis - (upper - lower) * 0.65
f23 = basis - (upper - lower) * 0.78
f0 = basis - (upper - lower) * 1.0
***When calculating Fibonacci levels, the distance between the average of BB and the upper and lower BB is used. These levels are 0%, 23.6%, 35%, 50%, 65%, 78.6%, and 100%. Finally, the RSI line that changes color according to a specific RSI position, Fibonacci levels, and BB are visualized. Additionally, the levels of 70, 30, and 50 are also shown.
The script then sets the color of the RSI position according to the EMA and draws Bollinger Bands, RSI, Fibonacci levels, and the 70, 30, and 50 levels.
In conclusion, this script enables traders to analyze market trends and make informed decisions. It can also be customized to suit individual trading strategies.
This script analyzes the RSI indicator using Bollinger Bands and Fibonacci levels. The default settings are 14 periods for RSI, 233 periods and 2 standard deviations for BB. The MA period inside BB is selected as the BB period and is used when calculating Fibonacci levels.
***The reason for selecting these settings is to provide enough time for BB period to confirm a possible trend. Additionally, the MA period inside BB is matched with the BB period and used when calculating Fibonacci levels.
***Fibonacci levels are calculated from the distance between the upper and lower bands of BB and show how RSI movement is related to these levels. Better results can be achieved when RSI periods are set to Fibonacci numbers such as 21, 55, and 89. Therefore, the use of Fibonacci numbers is recommended when adjusting RSI periods. Fibonacci numbers are among the technical analysis tools that can capture the reflection of naturally occurring movements in the market. Therefore, the use of Fibonacci numbers often helps to better track fluctuations in the market.
Finally, the indicator also displays the 70 and 30 levels and the middle level (50) with Fibonacci levels drawn in circles. Changing these settings can help optimize the Fibonacci levels and further improve the indicator.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions and opinions......
BTC Performance Table / BTC Seasonality Visualization
This script visualizes Bitcoins "seasonality", in form of a colored table (based on the idea from "BigBangTheory")
The history table shows you which months do statistically perform better/worse in comparison to other months.
How to use this script:
Choose ticker "BLX" ("BraveNewCoin Liquid Index for Bitcoin").
Set the charts time frame to weekly or daily. Tables position on the screen and its colors are configurable.
Table explanation:
Cells show whether a gain or a loss occured from month to month, since BTC came out in 2010.
The price difference, between monthly open and monthly close, determines the cell color (negative -> red, positive -> green).
The year column shows total gain (green) or loss (red) for that particular year.
Each value is presented as a rounded percentage number.
How this script works:
The script calculates the price difference between each monthly and yearly open and close, storing those numbers inside arrays.
Then it populates the table, by using those numbers and doing the cell coloring (there will be a yellow cell, in case no change should occur).
German Short-Description
Prozentuale Übersicht in Tabellenform, der monatlichen, sowie jährlichen, Performance des Bitcoin (basierend auf der Idee von "BigBangTheory").
Hierdurch wird die "Saisonalität" des Bitcoin sichtbar. D.h. welche Monate des Jahres, im Vergleich zu anderen Monaten, statistisch gesehen öfter positiv/negativ schließen.
Zwecks vollständiger Darstellung muss der Ticker "BLX" ("BraveNewCoin Liquid Index for Bitcoin") im weekly oder daily time frame aktiv sein.
Higher Time Frame Average True RangesPurpose: This script will help an options trader asses risk and determine good entry and exit strategies
Background Information: The true range is the greatest of: current high minus the current low; the absolute value of the current high minus the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low minus the previous close. The Average True Range (ATR) is a 14-day moving average of the true range. Traders use the ATR indicator to assess volatility in stocks and decide when to enter and exit trades. It is important to note the limitations of using True Range and ATR: These indications cannot tell you the direction of your options trade (call vs. put) and they cannot tell you whether a particular trend is about to reverse. However, it can be used to assess if volatility has peaked for a particular direction and time period.
How this script works: This indicator calculates true range for the daily (DTR), weekly (WTR), and monthly (MTR) time frames and compares it to the Average True Range (ATR) for each of those time frames (DATR, WATR, and MATR). The comparison is displayed into a colored table in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. When a daily, weekly, or monthly true range reaches 80% of its respective ATR, the row for that time frame will turn Orange indicating medium risk for staying in the trade. If the true range goes above 100% of the respective ATR, then the row will turn Red indicating high risk for staying in the trade. When the row for a time period turns red, volatility for the time period has likely peaked and traders should heavily consider taking profits. It is important to note these calculations start at different times for each time frame: Daily (Today’s Open), Weekly (Monday’s Open), Monthly (First of the Month’s Open). This means if it’s the 15th of the month then the Monthly True Range is being calculated for the trading days in the first half of the month (approximately 10 trade days).
The script also plots three sets of horizontal dotted lines to visually represent the ATR for each time period. Each set is generated by adding and subtracting the daily, weekly, and monthly ATRs from that time periods open price. For example, the weekly ATR is added and subtracted from Mondays open price to visually represent the true range for that week. The DATR is represented by red lines, the WATR is represented by the green lines, and the MATR is represented by the blue lines. These plots could also be used to assess risk as well.
How to use this script: Use the table to assess risk and determine potential exit strategies (Green=Low Risk, Orange=Medium Risk, Red=High Risk. Use the dotted lines to speculate what a stock’s price could be in a given time period (Daily=Red, Weekly=Green, and Monthly=Blue). And don’t forget the true range’s calculation and plots starts at the beginning of each time period!
Multi Yield CurveAn inversion between the 2 year and 10 year US treasury yield generally means a recession within 2 years. But the yield curve has more to it than that. This script helps analysis of the current and past yield curve (not limited to US treasury) and is very configurable.
"A yield curve is a line that plots yields (interest rates) of bonds having equal credit quality but differing maturity dates. The slope of the yield curve gives an idea of future interest rate changes and economic activity." (Investopedia)
When the slope is upward (longer maturity bonds have a higher interest rate than shorter maturity bonds), it generally means the economy is doing well and is expanding. When the slope is downward it generally means that there is more downside risk in the future.
The more inverted the curve is, and the more the inversion moves to the front, the more market participants are hedging against downside risk in the future.
The script draws up to 4 moments of a yield curve, which makes it easy to compare the current yield curve with past yield curves. It also draws lines in red when that part of the curve is inverted.
The script draws the lines with proper length between maturity (which most scripts do not) in order to make it more representative of the real maturity duration. The width cannot be scaled because TradingView does not allow drawing based on pixels.
This script is the only free script at time of writing with proper lengths, showing multiple yield curves, and being able to show yield curves other than the US treasury.
█ CONFIGURATION
(The following can be configured by clicking "Settings" when the script is added to a chart)
By default the script is configured to show the US treasury (government bond) yields of all maturities, but it can be configured for any yield curve.
A ticker represents yield data for a specific maturity of a bond.
To configure different tickers, go to the "TICKERS" section. Tickers in this section must be ordered from low maturity to high maturity.
• Enable: draw the ticker on the chart.
• Ticker: ticker symbol on TradingView to fetch data for.
• Months: amount of months of bond maturity the ticker represents.
To configure general settings, go to the "GENERAL" section.
• Period: used for calculating how far back to look for data for past yield curve lines. See "Times back" further in this description for more info.
• Min spacing: minimum amount of spacing between labels. Depending on the size of the screen, value labels can overlap. This setting sets how much empty space there must be between labels.
• Value format: how the value at that part of the line should be written on the label. For example, 0.000 means the value will have 3 digits precision.
To configure line settings per yield curve, each has its own "LINE" section with the line number after it.
• Enable: whether to enable drawing of this line.
• Times back: how many times period to go back in time. When period is D, and times value is 2, the line will be of data from 2 days ago.
• Color: color of the line when not inverted.
• Style: style of the line. Possible values: sol, dsh, dot
• Inversion color: color of the line when the curve inverses between the two maturities at that part of the curve.
• Thickness: thickness of the line in pixels.
• Labels: whether to draw value labels above the line. By default, this is only enabled for the first line.
• Label text color: text color of value label.
• Label background color: background color of value label.
To configure the durations axis at the bottom of the chart, go to the "DURATIONS" section.
• Durations: whether to show maturity term duration labels below the chart.
• Offset: amount to offset durations label to be below chart.

Script originally inspired by the US Treasury Yield Curve script by @longfiat but has been completely rewritten and changed.
MACD-X Overlay, More Than MACD by DGTMoving Average Convergence Divergence – MACD
The most popular indicator used in technical analysis , the moving average convergence divergence ( MACD ), created by Gerald Appel. MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator , designed to reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a financial instrument’s price
Historical evolution of MACD ,
- Gerald Appel created the MACD line,
- Thomas Aspray added the histogram feature to MACD
- Giorgos E. Siligardos created a leader of MACD
MACD employs two Moving Averages of varying lengths (which are lagging indicators) to identify trend direction and duration. Then, MACD takes the difference in values between those two Moving Averages (MACD Line) and an EMA of those Moving Averages (Signal Line) and plots that difference between the two lines as a histogram which oscillates above and below a center Zero Line. The histogram is used as a good indication of a security's momentum.
The MACD indicator is typically good for identifying three types of basic signals;
Signal Line Crossovers
A Signal Line Crossover is the most common signal produced by the MACD . On the occasions where the MACD Line crosses above or below the Signal Line, that can signify a potentially strong move. The standard interpretation of such an event is a recommendation to buy if the MACD line crosses up through the Signal Line (a "bullish" crossover), or to sell if it crosses down through the Signal Line (a "bearish" crossover). These events are taken as indications that the trend in the financial instrument is about to accelerate in the direction of the crossover.
Zero Line Crossovers
Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crossed the Zero Line and either becomes positive (above 0) or negative (below 0). A change from positive to negative MACD is interpreted as "bearish", and from negative to positive as "bullish". Zero crossovers provide evidence of a change in the direction of a trend but less confirmation of its momentum than a signal line crossover
Divergence
Divergence is another signal created by the MACD . Simply, divergence occurs when the MACD and actual price are not in agreement. A "positive divergence" or "bullish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new low but the MACD does not confirm with a new low of its own. A "negative divergence" or "bearish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new high but the MACD does not confirm with a new high of its own. A divergence with respect to price may occur on the MACD line and/or the MACD Histogram
Moving Average Crossovers , another hidden signal that MACD Indicator identifies
Many traders will watch for a short-term moving average to cross above a longer-term moving average and use this to signal increasing upward momentum. This bullish crossover suggests that the price has recently been rising at a faster rate than it has in the past, so it is a common technical buy sign. Conversely, a short-term moving average crossing below a longer-term average is used to illustrate that the asset's price has been moving downward at a faster rate and that it may be a good time to sell.
Moving Average Crossovers in reality is Zero Line Crossovers, the value of the MACD indicator is equal to zero each time the two moving averages cross over each other. For easy interpretation by trades, Zero Line Crossovers are simply described as positive or negative MACD
False signals
Like any forecasting algorithm, the MACD can generate false signals. A false positive, for example, would be a bullish crossover followed by a sudden decline in a financial instrument. A false negative would be a situation where there is bearish crossover, yet the financial instrument accelerated suddenly upwards
What is “MACD-X” and Why it is “More Than MACD”
In its simples form, MACD-X implements variety of different calculation techniques applied to obtain MACD Line. Different calculation techniques lead to different values for MACD Line, as will further discuss below, and as a consequence the signal line and the histogram values will differentiate accordingly.
Main features of MACD-X ;
1- Plotting of the Oscillator presented on top of the price chart (main chart) and applicable on both log and linear scale. Maximum plotting length is limited to 250 bars
2- Introduces different proven techniques applied on MACD calculation, such as MACD-AS (Histogram), MACD-Leader and MACD-Source, besides the traditional MACD (MACD-TRADITIONAL)
• MACD-Traditional, by Gerald Appel
It is the MACD that we know, stated as traditional just to avoid confusion with other techniques used with this study
• MACD-Histogram, by Thomas Aspray
The MACD-Histogram measures the distance between MACD and its signal line (the 9-day EMA of MACD ). Aspray developed the MACD-Histogram to anticipate signal line crossovers in MACD . Because MACD uses moving averages and moving averages lag price, signal line crossovers can come late and affect the reward-to-risk ratio of a trade. Bullish or bearish divergences in the MACD-Histogram can alert chartists to an imminent signal line crossover in MACD
Aspray's contribution served as a way to anticipate (and therefore cut down on lag) possible MACD crossovers which are a fundamental part of the indicator.
• MACD-Leader, by Giorgos E. Siligardos, PhD
MACD Leader has the ability to lead MACD at critical situations. Almost all smoothing methods encounter in technical analysis are based on a relative-weighted sum of past prices, and the Leader is no exception. The concealed weights of MACD Leader are such that more relative weight is used in the more recent prices than the respective weights used by the components of MACD . In effect, the Leader expresses more changes in average price dynamics for the recent price movement than MACD , thus eventually leading MACD , especially when significant trend changes are about to take place.
• MACD-Source, a custom experimental interpretation of mine,
MACD Source, presents an application of MACD that evaluates Source/MA Ratio, relatively with less lag, as a basis for MACD Line, also can be expressed as source convergence/divergence to its moving average. Among the various techniques for removing the lag between price and moving average (MA) of the price, one in particular stands out: the addition to the moving average of a portion of the difference between the price and MA. MACD Source, is based on signal length mean of the difference between Source and average value of shot length and long length moving average of the source (Source/MA Ratio), where the source is actual value and hence no lag and relatively less lag with the average value of moving average of the source .
MACD Source provides relatively early crossovers comparing to MACD and better momentum direction indications, assuming the lengths are set to same values

[Sextan] T-Step LSMA MTF BacktestLevel: 1
NOTE: This is a request by @scantor516 to backtest T-Step LSMA by alexgrover with my Sextan framework. You can backtest many of my indicators in minutes now! Of course,you can define your own indicator in the highlighted area in compliance with the uniform format, which guarantee when you use "Indicator on Indicator" function, it would not produce any error.

Background
Backtesting of technical indicators and strategies is the most common way to understand a quantitative strategy. However, the complicated configuration and adaptation work of backtesting many quantitative tools makes many traders who do not understand the code daunted. Moreover, although I have written a lot of strategies, I am still not very satisfied with the backtest configuration and writing efficiency. Therefore, I have been thinking about how to build a backtesting framework that can quickly and easily evaluate the backtesting performance of any indicator with a "long/short entry" indicator, that is, a "simple backtesting tool for dummies". The performance requirements should be stable, and the operation should be simple and convenient. It is best to "copy", "paste", and "a few mouse clicks" to complete the quick backtest and evaluation of a new indicator.
Luckily, I recently realized that TradingView provides an "Indicator on Indicator" feature, which is the perfect foundation for doing "hot swap" backtesting. My basic idea is to use a two-layer design. The first layer is the technical indicator signal source that needs to be embedded, which is only used to provide buy and sell signals of custom strategies; the second layer is the trading system, which is used to receive the output signals of the first layer, and filter the signals according to the agreed specifications. , Take Profit, Stop Loss, draw buy and sell signals and cost lines, define and send custom buy and sell alert messages to mobile phones, social software or trading interfaces. In general, this two-layer design is a flexible combination of "death and alive", which can meet the needs of most traders to quickly evaluate the performance of a certain technical indicator. The first layer here is flexible. Users can insert their own strategy codes according to my template, and they can draw buy and sell signals and output them to the second layer. The second layer is fixed, and the overall framework is solidified to ensure the stability and unity of the trading system. It is convenient to compare different or similar strategies under the same conditions. Finally, all trading signals are drawn on the chart, and the output strategy returns. test report.
The main function:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the script provides a template for personalized strategy input, and the signal and definition interfaces ensure full compatibility with the second layer. Backtesting is performed stably in the backtesting framework of the layer. The first layer of this script is also relatively simple: enter your script in the highlighted custom script area, and after ensuring the final buy and sell signals long = bool condition, short = bool condition, the design of the first layer is considered complete. Input it into the PINE script editor of TradingView, save it and add it to the chart, you can see the pulse sequence in yellow (buy) and purple (sell) on the sub-picture, corresponding to the main picture, you can subjectively judge that the quality of the trading point of the strategy is good Bad.
The second layer: "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". This script is the standardized trading system strategy execution and alarm, used to generate the final report of the strategy backtest and some key indicators that I have customized that I find useful, such as: winning rate , Odds, Winning Surface, Kelly Ratio, Take Profit and Stop Loss Thresholds, Trading Frequency, etc. are evaluated according to the Kelly formula. To use the second layer, first load it into the TrainingView chart, no markers will appear on the chart, since you have not specified any strategy source signals, click on the gear-shaped setting next to the "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans BTFW" header button, you can open the backtest settings, the first item is to select your custom strategy source. Because we have added the strategy source to the chart in the previous step, you can easily find an option "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source: Signal" at the bottom of the list, this is the strategy source input we need, select and confirm , you can see various markers on the main graph, and quickly generate a backtesting profit graph and a list of backtesting reports. You can generate files and download the backtesting reports locally. You can also click the gear on the backtest chart interface to customize some conditions of the backtest, including: initial capital amount, currency type, percentage of each order placed, amount of pyramid additions, commission fees, slippage, etc. configuration. Note: The configuration in the interface dialog overrides the same configuration implemented by the code in the backtest script.
How to output charts:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the output of this script is the pulse value of yellow and purple, yellow +1 means buy, purple -1 means sell.
The second layer: PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". The output of this script is a bit complicated. After all, it is the entire trading system with a lot of information:
1. Blue and red arrows. The blue upward arrow indicates long position, the red downward arrow indicates short position, and the horizontal bar at the end of the purple arrow indicates take profit or stop loss exit.
2. Red and green lines. This is the holding cost line of the strategy, green represents the cost of holding a long position, and red represents the cost of holding a short position. The cost line is a continuous solid line and the price action is relatively close.
3. Green and yellow long take profit and stop loss area and green and yellow long take profit and stop loss fork. Once a long position is held, there is a conditional order for take profit and stop loss. The green horizontal line is the long take profit ratio line, and the yellow is the long stop loss ratio line; the green cross indicates the long take profit price, and the yellow cross indicates the long position. Stop loss price. It's worth noting that the prongs and wires don't necessarily go together. Because of the optimization of the algorithm, for a strong market, the take profit will occur after breaking the take profit line, and the profit will not be taken until the price falls.
4. The purple and red short take profit and stop loss area and the purple red short stop loss fork. Once a short position is held, there will be a take profit and stop loss conditional order, the red is the short take profit ratio line, and the purple is the short stop loss ratio line; the red cross indicates the short take profit price, and the purple cross indicates the short stop loss price.
5. In addition to the above signs, there are also text and numbers indicating the profit and loss values of long and short positions. "L" means long; "S" means short; "XL" means close long; "XS" means close short.
TradingView Strategy Tester Panel:
The overview graph is an intuitive graph that plots the blue (gain) and red (loss) curves of all backtest periods together, and notes: the absolute value and percentage of net profit, the number of all closed positions, the winning percentage, the profit factor, The maximum trading loss, the absolute value and ratio of the average trading profit and loss, and the average number of K-lines held in all trades.
Another is the performance summary. This is to display all long and short statistical indicators of backtesting in the form of a list, such as: net profit, gross profit, Sharpe ratio, maximum position, commission, times of profit and loss, etc.
Finally, the transaction list is a table indexed by the transaction serial number, showing the signal direction, date and time, price, profit and loss, accumulated profit and loss, maximum transaction profit, transaction loss and other values.
Remarks
Finally, I will explain that this is just the beginning of this model. I will continue to optimize the trading system of the second layer. Various optimization feedback and suggestions are welcome. For valuable feedback, I am willing to provide some L4/L5 technical indicators as rewards for free subscription rights.
