NWOG with FVGThe New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) and Fair Value Gap (FVG) combined indicator is a trading tool designed to analyze price action and detect potential support, resistance, and trade entry opportunities based on two significant concepts:
New Week Opening Gap (NWOG): The price range between the high and low of the first candle of the new trading week.
Fair Value Gap (FVG): A price imbalance or gap between candlesticks, where price may retrace to fill the gap, indicating potential support or resistance zones.
When combined, these two concepts help traders identify key price levels (from the new week open) and price imbalances (from FVGs), which can act as powerful indicators for potential market reversals, retracements, or continuation trades.
1. New Week Opening Gap (NWOG):
Definition:
The New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) refers to the range between the high and low of the first candle in a new trading week (often, the Monday open in most markets).
Purpose:
NWOG serves as a significant reference point for market behavior throughout the week. Price action relative to this range helps traders identify:
Support and Resistance zones.
Bullish or Bearish sentiment depending on price’s relation to the opening gap levels.
Areas where the market may retrace or reverse before continuing in the primary trend.
How NWOG is Identified:
The high and low of the first candle of the new week are drawn on the chart, and these levels are used to assess the market's behavior relative to this range.
Trading Strategy Using NWOG:
Above the NWOG Range: If price is trading above the NWOG levels, it signals bullish sentiment.
Below the NWOG Range: If price is trading below the NWOG levels, it signals bearish sentiment.
Price Touching the NWOG Levels: If price approaches or breaks through the NWOG levels, it can indicate a potential retracement or reversal.
2. Fair Value Gap (FVG):
Definition:
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) occurs when there is a gap or imbalance between two consecutive candlesticks, where the high of one candle is lower than the low of the next candle (or vice versa), creating a zone that may act as a price imbalance.
Purpose:
FVGs represent an imbalance in price action, often indicating that the market moved too quickly and left behind a price region that was not fully traded.
FVGs can serve as areas where price is likely to retrace to fill the gap, as traders seek to correct the imbalance.
How FVG is Identified:
An FVG is detected if:
Bearish FVG: The high of one candle is less than the low of the next (gap up).
Bullish FVG: The low of one candle is greater than the high of the next (gap down).
The area between the gap is drawn as a shaded region, indicating the FVG zone.
Trading Strategy Using FVG:
Price Filling the FVG: Price is likely to retrace to fill the gap. A reversal candle in the FVG zone can indicate a trade setup.
Support and Resistance: FVG zones can act as support (in a bullish FVG) or resistance (in a bearish FVG) if the price retraces to them.
Combined Strategy: New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) and Fair Value Gap (FVG):
The combined use of NWOG and FVG helps traders pinpoint high-probability price action setups where:
The New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) acts as a major reference level for potential support or resistance.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) represent market imbalances where price might retrace to, filling the gap before continuing its move.
Signal Logic:
Buy Signal:
Price touches or breaks above the NWOG range (indicating a bullish trend) and there is a bullish FVG present (gap indicating a support area).
Price retraces to fill the bullish FVG, offering a potential buy opportunity.
Sell Signal:
Price touches or breaks below the NWOG range (indicating a bearish trend) and there is a bearish FVG present (gap indicating a resistance area).
Price retraces to fill the bearish FVG, offering a potential sell opportunity.
Example:
Buy Setup:
Price breaks above the NWOG resistance level, and a bullish FVG (gap down) appears below. Traders can wait for price to pull back to fill the gap and then take a long position when confirmation occurs.
Sell Setup:
Price breaks below the NWOG support level, and a bearish FVG (gap up) appears above. Traders can wait for price to retrace and fill the gap before entering a short position.
Key Benefits of the Combined NWOG & FVG Indicator:
Combines Two Key Concepts:
NWOG provides context for the market's overall direction based on the start of the week.
FVG highlights areas where price imbalances exist and where price might retrace to, making it easier to spot entry points.
High-Probability Setups:
By combining these two strategies, the indicator helps traders spot high-probability trades based on major market levels (from NWOG) and price inefficiencies (from FVG).
Helps Identify Reversal and Continuation Opportunities:
FVGs act as potential support and resistance zones, and when combined with the context of the NWOG levels, it gives traders clearer guidance on where price might reverse or continue its trend.
Clear Visual Signals:
The indicator can plot the NWOG levels on the chart, and shade the FVG areas, providing a clean and easy-to-read chart with entry signals marked for buy and sell opportunities.
Conclusion:
The New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) and Fair Value Gap (FVG) combined indicator is a powerful tool for traders who use price action strategies. By incorporating the New Week's opening range and identifying gaps in price action, this indicator helps traders identify potential support and resistance zones, pinpoint entry opportunities, and increase the probability of successful trades.

Z-Strike RecoveryThis strategy utilizes the Z-Score of daily changes in the VIX (Volatility Index) to identify moments of extreme market panic and initiate long entries. Scientific research highlights that extreme volatility levels often signal oversold markets, providing opportunities for mean-reversion strategies.
How the Strategy Works
Calculation of Daily VIX Changes:
The difference between today’s and yesterday’s VIX closing prices is calculated.
Z-Score Calculation:
The Z-Score quantifies how far the current change deviates from the mean (average), expressed in standard deviations:
Z-Score=(Daily VIX Change)−MeanStandard Deviation
Z-Score=Standard Deviation(Daily VIX Change)−Mean
The mean and standard deviation are computed over a rolling period of 16 days (default).
Entry Condition:
A long entry is triggered when the Z-Score exceeds a threshold of 1.3 (adjustable).
A high positive Z-Score indicates a strong overreaction in the market (panic).
Exit Condition:
The position is closed after 10 periods (days), regardless of market behavior.
Visualizations:
The Z-Score is plotted to make extreme values visible.
Horizontal threshold lines mark entry signals.
Bars with entry signals are highlighted with a blue background.
This strategy is particularly suitable for mean-reverting markets, such as the S&P 500.
Scientific Background
Volatility and Market Behavior:
Studies like Whaley (2000) demonstrate that the VIX, known as the "fear gauge," is highly correlated with market panic phases. A spike in the VIX is often interpreted as an oversold signal due to excessive hedging by investors.
Source: Whaley, R. E. (2000). The investor fear gauge. Journal of Portfolio Management, 26(3), 12-17.
Z-Score in Financial Strategies:
The Z-Score is a proven method for detecting statistical outliers and is widely used in mean-reversion strategies.
Source: Chan, E. (2009). Quantitative Trading. Wiley Finance.
Mean-Reversion Approach:
The strategy builds on the mean-reversion principle, which assumes that extreme market movements tend to revert to the mean over time.

RSI Divergence + Sweep + Signal + Alerts Toolkit [TrendX_]The RSI Toolkit is a powerful set of tools designed to enhance the functionality of the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator. By integrating advanced features such as Moving Averages, Divergences, and Sweeps, it helps traders identify key market dynamics, potential reversals, and newly-approach trading stragies.
The toolkit expands on standard RSI usage by incorporating features from smart money concepts (Just try to be creative 🤣 Hope you like it), providing a deeper understanding of momentum, liquidity sweeps, and trend reversals. It is suitable for RSI traders who want to make more informed and effective trading decisions.
💎 FEATURES
RSI Moving Average
The RSI Moving Average (RSI MA) is the moving average of the RSI itself. It can be customized to use various types of moving averages, including Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Relative Moving Average (RMA), and Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA).
The RSI MA smooths out the RSI fluctuations, making it easier to identify trends and crossovers. It helps traders spot momentum shifts and potential entry/exit points by observing when the RSI crosses above or below its moving average.
RSI Divergence
RSI Divergence identifies discrepancies between price action and RSI momentum. There are two types of divergences: Regular Divergence - Indicates a potential trend reversal; Hidden Divergence - Suggests the continuation of the current trend.
Divergence is a critical signal for spotting weakness or strength in a trend. Regular divergence highlights potential trend reversals, while hidden divergence confirms trend continuation, offering traders valuable insights into market momentum and possible trade setups.
RSI Sweep
RSI Sweep detects moments when the RSI removes liquidity from a trend structure by sweeping above or below the price at key momentum level crossing. These sweeps are overlaid on the RSI chart for easier visualized.
RSI Sweeps are significant because they indicate potential turning points in the market. When RSI sweeps occur: In an uptrend - they suggest buyers' momentum has peaked, possibly leading to a reversal; In a downtrend - they indicate sellers’ momentum has peaked, also hinting at a reversal.
(Note: This feature incorporates Liquidity Sweep concepts from Smart Money Concepts into RSI analysis, helping RSI traders identify areas where liquidity has been removed, which often precedes a trend reversal)
🔎 BREAKDOWN
RSI Moving Average
How MA created: The RSI value is calculated first using the standard RSI formula. The MA is then applied to the RSI values using the trader’s chosen type of MA (SMA, EMA, RMA, or VWMA). The flexibility to choose the type of MA allows traders to adjust the smoothing effect based on their trading style.
Why use MA: RSI by itself can be noisy and difficult to interpret in volatile markets. Applying moving average would provide a smoother, more reliable view of RSI trends.
RSI Divergence
How Regular Divergence created: Regular Divergence is detected when price forms HIGHER highs while RSI forms LOWER highs (bearish divergence) or when price forms LOWER lows while RSI forms HIGHER lows (bullish divergence).
How Hidden Divergence created: Hidden Divergence is identified when price forms HIGHER lows while RSI forms LOWER lows (bullish hidden divergence) or when price forms LOWER highs while RSI forms HIGHER highs (bearish hidden divergence).
Why use Divergence: Divergences provide early warning signals of a potential trend change. Regular divergence helps traders anticipate reversals, while hidden divergence supports trend continuation, enabling traders to align their trades with market momentum.
RSI Sweep
How Sweep created: Trend Structure Shift are identified based on the RSI crossing key momentum level of 50. To track these sweeps, the indicator pinpoints moments when liquidity is removed from the Trend Structure Shift. This is a direct application of Liquidity Sweep concepts used in Smart Money theories, adapted to RSI.
Why use Sweep: RSI Sweeps are created to help traders detect potential trend reversals. By identifying areas where momentum has exhausted during a certain trend direction, the indicator highlights opportunities for traders to enter trades early in a reversal or continuation phase.
⚙️ USAGES
Divergence + Sweep
This is an example of combining Devergence & Sweep in BTCUSDT (1 hour)
Wait for a divergence (regular or hidden) to form on the RSI. After the divergence is complete, look for a sweep to occur. A potential entry might be formed at the end of the sweep.
Divergences indicate a potential trend change, but confirmation is required to ensure the setup is valid. The RSI Sweep provides that confirmation by signaling a liquidity event, increasing the likelihood of a successful trade.
Sweep + MA Cross
This is an example of combining Devergence & Sweep in BTCUSDT (1 hour)
Wait for an RSI Sweep to form then a potential entry might be formed when the RSI crosses its MA.
The RSI Sweep highlights a potential turning point in the market. The MA cross serves as additional confirmation that momentum has shifted, providing a more reliable and more potential entry signal for trend continuations.
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
three Supertrend EMA Strategy by Prasanna +DhanuThe indicator described in your Pine Script is a Supertrend EMA Strategy that combines the Supertrend and EMA (Exponential Moving Average) to create a trend-following strategy. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how this indicator works:
1. EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
The EMA is a moving average that places more weight on recent prices, making it more responsive to price changes compared to a simple moving average (SMA). In this strategy, the EMA is used to determine the overall trend direction.
Input Parameter:
ema_length: This is the period for the EMA, set to 50 periods by default. A shorter EMA will respond more quickly to price movements, while a longer EMA is smoother and less sensitive to short-term fluctuations.
How it's used:
If the price is above the EMA, it indicates an uptrend.
If the price is below the EMA, it indicates a downtrend.
2. Supertrend Indicator:
The Supertrend indicator is a trend-following tool based on the Average True Range (ATR), which is a volatility measure. It helps to identify the direction of the trend by setting a dynamic support or resistance level.
Input Parameters:
supertrend_atr_period: The period used for calculating the ATR, set to 10 periods by default.
supertrend_multiplier1: Multiplier for the first Supertrend, set to 3.0.
supertrend_multiplier2: Multiplier for the second Supertrend, set to 2.0.
supertrend_multiplier3: Multiplier for the third Supertrend, set to 1.0.
Each Supertrend line has a different multiplier, which affects its sensitivity to price changes. The ATR period defines how many periods of price data are used to calculate the ATR.
How the Supertrend works:
If the Supertrend value is below the price, the trend is considered bullish (uptrend).
If the Supertrend value is above the price, the trend is considered bearish (downtrend).
The Supertrend will switch between up and down based on price movement and ATR, providing a dynamic trend-following signal.
3. Three Supertrend Lines:
In this strategy, three Supertrend lines are calculated with different multipliers and the same ATR period (10 periods). Each line is more or less sensitive to price changes, and they are plotted on the chart in different colors based on whether the trend is bullish (green) or bearish (red).
Supertrend 1: The most sensitive Supertrend with a multiplier of 3.0.
Supertrend 2: A moderately sensitive Supertrend with a multiplier of 2.0.
Supertrend 3: The least sensitive Supertrend with a multiplier of 1.0.
Each Supertrend line signals a bullish trend when its value is below the price and a bearish trend when its value is above the price.
4. Strategy Rules:
This strategy uses the three Supertrend lines combined with the EMA to generate trade signals.
Entry Conditions:
A long entry is triggered when all three Supertrend lines are in an uptrend (i.e., all three Supertrend lines are below the price), and the price is above the EMA. This suggests a strong bullish market condition.
A short entry is triggered when all three Supertrend lines are in a downtrend (i.e., all three Supertrend lines are above the price), and the price is below the EMA. This suggests a strong bearish market condition.
Exit Conditions:
A long exit occurs when the third Supertrend (the least sensitive one) switches to a downtrend (i.e., the price falls below it).
A short exit occurs when the third Supertrend switches to an uptrend (i.e., the price rises above it).
5. Visualization:
The strategy also plots the following on the chart:
The EMA is plotted as a blue line, which helps identify the overall trend.
The three Supertrend lines are plotted with different colors:
Supertrend 1: Green (for uptrend) and Red (for downtrend).
Supertrend 2: Green (for uptrend) and Red (for downtrend).
Supertrend 3: Green (for uptrend) and Red (for downtrend).
Summary of the Strategy:
The strategy combines three Supertrend indicators (with different multipliers) and an EMA to capture both short-term and long-term trends.
Long positions are entered when all three Supertrend lines are bullish and the price is above the EMA.
Short positions are entered when all three Supertrend lines are bearish and the price is below the EMA.
Exits occur when the third Supertrend line (the least sensitive) signals a change in trend direction.
This combination of indicators allows for a robust trend-following strategy that adapts to both short-term volatility and long-term trend direction. The Supertrend lines provide quick reaction to price changes, while the EMA offers a smoother, more stable trend direction for confirmation.

Volume-MACD-RSI Integrated StrategyDescription:
This script integrates three well-known technical analysis tools—Volume, MACD, and RSI—into a single signal meant to help traders identify potential turning points under strong market conditions.
Concept Overview:
Volume Filter: We compare the current bar’s volume to a 20-period volume average and require it to exceed a specified multiplier. This ensures that signals occur only during periods of heightened market participation. The logic is that moves on low volume are less reliable, so we wait for increased activity to confirm potential trend changes.
MACD Momentum Shift:
We incorporate MACD crossovers to determine when momentum is changing direction. MACD is a popular momentum indicator that identifies shifts in trend by comparing short-term and long-term EMAs. A bullish crossover (MACD line crossing above the signal line) may suggest upward momentum is building, while a bearish crossunder can indicate momentum turning downward.
RSI Market Condition Check:
RSI helps us identify overbought or oversold conditions. By requiring that RSI be oversold on buy signals and overbought on sell signals, we attempt to pinpoint entries where price could be at an extreme. The idea is to position entries or exits at junctures where price may be due for a reversal.
How the Script Works Together:
Volume Confirmation: No signals fire unless there’s strong volume. This reduces false positives.
MACD Momentum Check: Once volume confirms market interest, MACD crossover events serve as a trigger to initiate consideration of a trade signal.
RSI Condition: Finally, RSI determines whether the market is at an extreme. This final layer helps ensure we only act on signals that have both momentum shift and a price at an extreme level, potentially increasing the reliability of signals.
Intended Use:
This script can help highlight potential reversal points or trend shifts during active market periods.
Traders can use these signals as a starting point for deeper analysis. For instance, a “BUY” arrow may prompt a trader to investigate the market context, confirm with other methods, or look for patterns that further support a long entry.
The script is best used on markets with reliable volume data, such as stocks or futures, and can be experimented with across different timeframes. Adjusting the RSI thresholds, MACD parameters, and volume multiplier can help tailor it to specific instruments or trading styles.
Chart Setup:
When adding this script to your chart, it should be the only indicator present, so you can clearly see the red “BUY” arrows and green “SELL” arrows at the candle closes where signals occur.
The chart should be kept clean and uncluttered for clarity. No other indicators are necessary since the logic is already integrated into this single script.

Long Position with 1:3 Risk Reward and 20EMA CrossoverThe provided Pine Script code implements a strategy to identify long entry signals based on a 20-EMA crossover on a 5-minute timeframe. Once a buy signal is triggered, it calculates and plots the following:
Entry Price: The price at which the buy signal is generated.
Stop Loss: The low of the previous candle, acting as a risk management tool.
Take Profit: The price level calculated based on a 1:3 risk-reward ratio.
Key Points:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when the current 5-minute candle closes above the 20-EMA.
Risk Management: The stop-loss is set below the entry candle to limit potential losses.
Profit Target: The take-profit is calculated based on a 1:3 risk-reward ratio, aiming for a potential profit three times the size of the risk.
Visualization: The script plots the entry price, stop-loss, and take-profit levels on the chart for visual clarity.
Remember:
Backtesting: It's crucial to backtest this strategy on historical data to evaluate its performance and optimize parameters.
Risk Management: Always use appropriate risk management techniques, such as stop-loss orders and position sizing, to protect your capital.
Market Conditions: Market conditions can change, and strategies that worked in the past may not perform as well in the future. Continuously monitor and adapt your strategy.
By understanding the core components of this script and applying sound risk management principles, you can effectively use it to identify potential long entry opportunities in the market.
3 EMA + RSI with Trail Stop [Free990] (LOW TF)This trading strategy combines three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to identify trend direction, uses RSI to signal exit conditions, and applies both a fixed percentage stop-loss and a trailing stop for risk management. It aims to capture momentum when the faster EMAs cross the slower EMA, then uses RSI thresholds, time-based exits, and stops to close trades.
Short Explanation of the Logic
Trend Detection: When the 10 EMA crosses above the 20 EMA and both are above the 100 EMA (and the current price bar closes higher), it triggers a long entry signal. The reverse happens for a short (the 10 EMA crosses below the 20 EMA and both are below the 100 EMA).
RSI Exit: RSI crossing above a set threshold closes long trades; crossing below another threshold closes short trades.
Time-Based Exit: If a trade is in profit after a set number of bars, the strategy closes it.
Stop-Loss & Trailing Stop: A fixed stop-loss based on a percentage from the entry price guards against large drawdowns. A trailing stop dynamically tightens as the trade moves in favor, locking in potential gains.
Detailed Explanation of the Strategy Logic
Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Setup
Short EMA (out_a, length=10)
Medium EMA (out_b, length=20)
Long EMA (out_c, length=100)
The code calculates three separate EMAs to gauge short-term, medium-term, and longer-term trend behavior. By comparing their relative positions, the strategy infers whether the market is bullish (EMAs stacked positively) or bearish (EMAs stacked negatively).
Entry Conditions
Long Entry (entryLong): Occurs when:
The short EMA (10) crosses above the medium EMA (20).
Both EMAs (short and medium) are above the long EMA (100).
The current bar closes higher than it opened (close > open).
This suggests that momentum is shifting to the upside (short-term EMAs crossing up and price action turning bullish). If there’s an existing short position, it’s closed first before opening a new long.
Short Entry (entryShort): Occurs when:
The short EMA (10) crosses below the medium EMA (20).
Both EMAs (short and medium) are below the long EMA (100).
The current bar closes lower than it opened (close < open).
This indicates a potential shift to the downside. If there’s an existing long position, that gets closed first before opening a new short.
Exit Signals
RSI-Based Exits:
For long trades: When RSI exceeds a specified threshold (e.g., 70 by default), it triggers a long exit. RSI > short_rsi generally means overbought conditions, so the strategy exits to lock in profits or avoid a pullback.
For short trades: When RSI dips below a specified threshold (e.g., 30 by default), it triggers a short exit. RSI < long_rsi indicates oversold conditions, so the strategy closes the short to avoid a bounce.
Time-Based Exit:
If the trade has been open for xBars bars (configurable, e.g., 24 bars) and the trade is in profit (current price above entry for a long, or current price below entry for a short), the strategy closes the position. This helps lock in gains if the move takes too long or momentum stalls.
Stop-Loss Management
Fixed Stop-Loss (% Based): Each trade has a fixed stop-loss calculated as a percentage from the average entry price.
For long positions, the stop-loss is set below the entry price by a user-defined percentage (fixStopLossPerc).
For short positions, the stop-loss is set above the entry price by the same percentage.
This mechanism prevents catastrophic losses if the market moves strongly against the position.
Trailing Stop:
The strategy also sets a trail stop using trail_points (the distance in price points) and trail_offset (how quickly the stop “catches up” to price).
As the market moves in favor of the trade, the trailing stop gradually tightens, allowing profits to run while still capping potential drawdowns if the price reverses.
Order Execution Flow
When the conditions for a new position (long or short) are triggered, the strategy first checks if there’s an opposite position open. If there is, it closes that position before opening the new one (prevents going “both long and short” simultaneously).
RSI-based and time-based exits are checked on each bar. If triggered, the position is closed.
If the position remains open, the fixed stop-loss and trailing stop remain in effect until the position is exited.
Why This Combination Works
Multiple EMA Cross: Combining 10, 20, and 100 EMAs balances short-term momentum detection with a longer-term trend filter. This reduces false signals that can occur if you only look at a single crossover without considering the broader trend.
RSI Exits: RSI provides a momentum oscillator view—helpful for detecting overbought/oversold conditions, acting as an extra confirmation to exit.
Time-Based Exit: Prevents “lingering trades.” If the position is in profit but failing to advance further, it takes profit rather than risking a trend reversal.
Fixed & Trailing Stop-Loss: The fixed stop-loss is your safety net to cap worst-case losses. The trailing stop allows the strategy to lock in gains by following the trade as it moves favorably, thus maximizing profit potential while keeping risk in check.
Overall, this approach tries to capture momentum from EMA crossovers, protect profits with trailing stops, and limit risk through both a fixed percentage stop-loss and exit signals from RSI/time-based logic.
DCA Strategy with Mean Reversion and Bollinger BandDCA Strategy with Mean Reversion and Bollinger Band
The Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) Strategy with Mean Reversion and Bollinger Bands is a sophisticated trading strategy that combines the principles of DCA, mean reversion, and technical analysis using Bollinger Bands. This strategy aims to capitalize on market corrections by systematically entering positions during periods of price pullbacks and reversion to the mean.
Key Concepts and Principles
1. Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA)
DCA is an investment strategy that involves regularly purchasing a fixed dollar amount of an asset, regardless of its price. The idea behind DCA is that by spreading out investments over time, the impact of market volatility is reduced, and investors can avoid making large investments at inopportune times. The strategy reduces the risk of buying all at once during a market high and can smooth out the cost of purchasing assets over time.
In the context of this strategy, the Investment Amount (USD) is set by the user and represents the amount of capital to be invested in each buy order. The strategy executes buy orders whenever the price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band, which suggests a potential market correction or pullback. This is an effective way to average the entry price and avoid the emotional pitfalls of trying to time the market perfectly.
2. Mean Reversion
Mean reversion is a concept that suggests prices will tend to return to their historical average or mean over time. In this strategy, mean reversion is implemented using the Bollinger Bands, which are based on a moving average and standard deviation. The lower band is considered a potential buy signal when the price crosses below it, indicating that the asset has become oversold or underpriced relative to its historical average. This triggers the DCA buy order.
Mean reversion strategies are popular because they exploit the natural tendency of prices to revert to their mean after experiencing extreme deviations, such as during market corrections or panic selling.
3. Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands are a technical analysis tool that consists of three lines:
Middle Band: The moving average, usually a 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) in this strategy. This serves as the "mean" or baseline.
Upper Band: The middle band plus a certain number of standard deviations (multiplier). The upper band is used to identify overbought conditions.
Lower Band: The middle band minus a certain number of standard deviations (multiplier). The lower band is used to identify oversold conditions.
In this strategy, the Bollinger Bands are used to identify potential entry points for DCA trades. When the price crosses below the lower band, this is seen as a potential opportunity for mean reversion, suggesting that the asset may be oversold and could reverse back toward the middle band (the EMA). Conversely, when the price crosses above the upper band, it indicates overbought conditions and signals potential market exhaustion.
4. Time-Based Entry and Exit
The strategy has specific entry and exit points defined by time parameters:
Open Date: The date when the strategy begins opening positions.
Close Date: The date when all positions are closed.
This time-bound approach ensures that the strategy is active only during a specified window, which can be useful for testing specific market conditions or focusing on a particular time frame.
5. Position Sizing
Position sizing is determined by the Investment Amount (USD), which is the fixed amount to be invested in each buy order. The quantity of the asset to be purchased is calculated by dividing the investment amount by the current price of the asset (investment_amount / close). This ensures that the amount invested remains constant despite fluctuations in the asset's price.
6. Closing All Positions
The strategy includes an exit rule that closes all positions once the specified close date is reached. This allows for controlled exits and limits the exposure to market fluctuations beyond the strategy's timeframe.
7. Background Color Based on Price Relative to Bollinger Bands
The script uses the background color of the chart to provide visual feedback about the price's relationship with the Bollinger Bands:
Red background indicates the price is above the upper band, signaling overbought conditions.
Green background indicates the price is below the lower band, signaling oversold conditions.
This provides an easy-to-interpret visual cue for traders to assess the current market environment.
Postscript: Configuring Initial Capital for Backtesting
To ensure the backtest results align with the actual investment scenario, users must adjust the Initial Capital in the TradingView strategy properties. This is done by calculating the Initial Capital as the product of the Total Closed Trades and the Investment Amount (USD). For instance:
If the user is investing 100 USD per trade and has 10 closed trades, the Initial Capital should be set to 1,000 USD.
Similarly, if the user is investing 200 USD per trade and has 24 closed trades, the Initial Capital should be set to 4,800 USD.
This adjustment ensures that the backtesting results reflect the actual capital deployed in the strategy and provides an accurate representation of potential gains and losses.
Conclusion
The DCA strategy with Mean Reversion and Bollinger Bands is a systematic approach to investing that leverages the power of regular investments and technical analysis to reduce market timing risks. By combining DCA with the insights offered by Bollinger Bands and mean reversion, this strategy offers a structured way to navigate volatile markets while targeting favorable entry points. The clear entry and exit rules, coupled with time-based constraints, make it a robust and disciplined approach to long-term investing.

Enigma End Game Indicator
Enigma End Game Indicator Description
The Enigma End Game indicator is a powerful tool designed to enhance the way traders approach support and resistance, combining mainstream technical analysis with a unique, dynamic perspective. At its core, this indicator enables traders to adapt to market conditions in real time by applying a blend of classic and modern interpretations of support and resistance levels.
In traditional support and resistance analysis, we recognize the significant price points where the market has historically reversed or consolidated. However, the *Enigma End Game* indicator takes this one step further by analyzing each individual candle's high as a potential resistance level and each low as support. This allows the trader to stay more agile, as the market constantly updates and evolves. The dynamic nature of this method acknowledges that price movements are fractal in nature, meaning that these levels are not static but adjust in response to price action on multiple timeframes.
### How It Works:
When using the *Enigma End Game* indicator, it doesn't simply plot buy and sell signals automatically. Instead, the indicator highlights key levels based on the interaction between price and historical price action. Here's how it operates:
1. **Buy Logic:**
The indicator identifies bullish signals based on the *Enigma* logic, but it does not trigger an immediate buy. Instead, it plots arrows above or below the candles, indicating the key price levels where price action has shifted. Traders then focus on these areas, particularly looking for buy opportunities *below* these levels during key market sessions (such as London or New York) while aligning with both mainstream support and resistance and *Enigma* levels.
2. **Sell Logic:**
Similarly, when the indicator identifies a sell signal, it plots an arrow above the candle where price action has reversed. This does not immediately suggest selling. Traders wait for a price retracement back to the previously breached low (for a sell order) or high (for a buy order), observing price action closely on lower timeframes (such as the 1-minute chart) to refine entry points. The entry is triggered when price starts to show signs of reversing at these levels, further validated by mainstream and *Enigma* support/resistance.
### Practical Example – XAU/USD (Gold):
For instance, in the settings of the *Enigma End Game* indicator, if we select the 5-minute (5MN) timeframe as the key level, the indicator will only plot the first 3 arrows following the *Enigma* logic. The arrows will appear above or below the candle that was breached, indicating a potential trend reversal. In this scenario, the first arrow marks the point where price broke a significant support or resistance level. Afterward, the trader watches for a subsequent candle to close below (in the case of a sell) the previous candle’s low, confirming a bearish bias.
Now, the trader does not rush into a sell order. Instead, they wait for the price to pull back towards the previously breached low. At this point, the trader can use a lower timeframe (like the 1-minute chart) to identify both mainstream support and resistance levels and *Enigma* levels above the main 5-minute key level. These additional levels provide a clearer understanding of where price might reverse and give the trader a stronger edge in refining their entry point.
The trader then sets a sell order *above* the price level of the previous low, but only once signs show that price is retracing and ready to fall again. The price point where this retracement occurs, confirmed by both mainstream and *Enigma* levels, becomes the entry signal for the trade.
### Summary:
The *Enigma End Game* indicator combines time-tested principles of support and resistance with a more modern, adaptive view, empowering traders to read the market with greater precision. It guides you to wait for optimal entries, based on dynamic support and resistance levels that change with each price movement. By combining signals on higher timeframes with refined entries on lower timeframes, traders gain a unique advantage in navigating both obvious and hidden levels of support and resistance, ultimately improving their ability to time trades with higher probability of success.
This indicator allows for a more calculated, strategic approach to trading—highlighting the right moments to enter the market while providing the flexibility to adjust to different market conditions.
The *ENIGMA Signals with Retests* indicator is a versatile trading tool that combines key market sessions with dynamic support and resistance levels. It uses logic to identify potential buy and sell signals based on the behavior of recent price swings (highs and lows) and offers flexibility with the number of arrows plotted per session. The user can customize settings like arrow frequency, line styles, and session times, allowing for personalized trading strategies.
The indicator detects buy and sell signals by checking if the price breaks the previous swing high (for buy signals) or swing low (for sell signals). It then stores these levels and draws horizontal lines on the chart, representing critical price levels where traders can expect potential price reactions.
A key feature of this indicator is its ability to limit the number of arrows per session, ensuring a cleaner chart and reducing signal clutter. Horizontal lines are drawn at the identified buy or sell levels, with the option to display labels like "BUY - AT OR BELOW" and "SELL - AT OR ABOVE" to further clarify entry points.
The indicator also incorporates session filtering, allowing traders to focus on specific market sessions (Asia, London, and New York) for more relevant signals, and it ensures that no more than a user-defined number of arrows are plotted within a session.

Weis Wave Max█ Overview
Weis Wave Max is the result of my weis wave study.
David Weis said,
"Trading with the Weis Wave involves changes in behavior associated with springs, upthrusts, tests of breakouts/breakdowns, and effort vs reward. The most common setup is the low-volume pullback after a bullish/bearish change in behavior."
THE STOCK MARKET UPDATE (February 24, 2013)
I inspired from his sentences and made this script.
Its Main feature is to identify the largest wave in Weis wave and advantageous trading opportunities.
█ Features
This indicator includes several features related to the Weis Wave Method.
They help you analyze which is more bullish or bearish.
Highlight Max Wave Value (single direction)
Highlight Abnormal Max Wave Value (both directions)
Support and Resistance zone
Signals and Setups
█ Usage
Weis wave indicator displays cumulative volume for each wave.
Wave volume is effective when analyzing volume from VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) perspective.
The basic idea of Weis wave is large wave volume hint trend direction. This helps identify proper entry point.
This indicator highlights max wave volume and displays the signal and then proper Risk Reward Ratio entry frame.
I defined Change in Behavior as max wave volume (single direction).
Pullback is next wave that does not exceed the starting point of CiB wave (LH sell entry, HL buy entry).
Change in Behavior Signal ○ appears when pullback is determined.
Change in Behavior Setup (Entry frame) appears when condition of Min/Max Pullback is met and follow through wave breaks end point of CiB wave.
This indicator has many other features and they can also help a user identify potential levels of trade entry and which is more bullish or bearish.
In the screenshot below we can see wave volume zones as support and resistance levels. SOT and large wave volume /delta price (yellow colored wave text frame) hint stopping action.

Version 1.0
Ultimate Volatility RateUltimate Volatility Rate
This indicator measures the volatility of price movements.
Support and Resistance Identification:
High volatility periods indicate larger price movements, which can be useful in assessing the potential for support and resistance levels to be broken.
Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) Calculations:
The average volatility can be used to calculate dynamic Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels:
SL: Placing it at a certain volatility multiplier below/above the entry price.
TP: Setting it at a certain volatility multiplier below/above the entry price.
For example:
SL: Entry price +/- (UVR × 1.5)
TP: Entry price +/- (UVR × 2)
Market Condition Analysis:
When the indicator value is high, it suggests that the market is volatile (active).
When the value is low, it indicates the market is in consolidation (sideways movement).
This information helps traders decide whether to take trend-following or consolidation-based positions.
Trend Reversal Monitoring:
A sudden increase in volatility often signals the start of a strong trend.
Conversely, a decrease in volatility can signal the slowing down or end of a trend.
SMA Buy/Sell Strategy with Significant Slope and Dynamic TP/SLDescription:
This strategy uses a simple moving average (SMA) to detect trading opportunities based on the slope and proximity of price action. It ensures trades are only executed during significant trends, reducing false signals caused by sideways movements. The strategy incorporates dynamic risk management with an initial ambitious Take Profit (TP) and a Trailing Stop Loss (SL) to protect profits.
Key Features:
Trend Detection with SMA:
Two SMAs are calculated: one on High values and one on Low values.
Signals are generated when the price crosses these SMAs, ensuring:
Buy: Price closes above the SMA on High, with a significant upward slope.
Sell: Price closes below the SMA on Low, with a significant downward slope.
Slope Significance Check:
The slope of the SMA is calculated over a configurable period.
Only trends with a slope variation exceeding a user-defined percentage threshold are considered significant.
Dynamic Risk Management:
Ambitious Initial TP: Positions target a high percentage gain upon entry.
Trailing SL: Automatically adjusts as the price moves in favor of the trade, locking in profits.
Automatic Position Management:
Opposing signals close existing positions to avoid conflicting trades.
Configurable position size for risk control.
Parameters:
SMA Period: Number of candles for calculating the SMA.
Initial Take Profit (%): Percentage gain for the initial TP.
Trailing Stop Loss (%): Percentage for trailing SL based on the current price.
Slope Threshold (%): Minimum percentage change in SMA slope to confirm trend significance.
How It Works:
Buy Signal:
The price closes above the SMA on High values.
The slope of the SMA (on High) is positive and exceeds the slope threshold.
Sell Signal:
The price closes below the SMA on Low values.
The slope of the SMA (on Low) is negative and exceeds the slope threshold.
Exits:
A position closes at the Take Profit level, Trailing Stop Loss, or when an opposing signal is generated.
Use Case:
This strategy is ideal for trending markets where price action respects moving averages. It can be used on any timeframe or asset but is particularly effective in markets with clear directional movements.
Recommended Settings:
Timeframe: Works well on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily).
Slope Threshold (%): Default is 5%, adjust based on market volatility.
Initial TP and Trailing SL: Tailor to your risk/reward preferences.
By utilizing this strategy, traders can capitalize on significant market trends while dynamically managing risk. Test it on historical data to optimize the parameters for your preferred market!

RSI Difference (Fast and Slow)Introduction
Oscillators like the RSI are fundamental tools for identifying trends in financial markets. Their ability to measure price momentum allows traders to detect overbought, oversold levels, and divergences, anticipating trend changes. Are there ways to improve the use of traditional RSI? How can we obtain more detailed information about current trends? This indicator answers these questions by expanding the functionalities of the traditional RSI and offering an additional tool for analysis.
How does it work?
This indicator provides a framework for trend analysis based on the following setup:
Fast RSI
Slow RSI
SMA of the fast RSI
SMA of the slow RSI
Histogram
Custom Indicator Settings
My preferred configuration is based on the 13 and 55 moving averages. The rest of the setup is as follows:
I typically use the 13 and 55 moving averages to configure both the RSI and short- and long-term moving averages.
Interpretation and Signals: Including a Long-Period RSI
Including a long-period RSI helps identify key patterns in market behavior. Crossovers between the two can be used to establish entry patterns:
If the fast RSI crosses above the slow RSI, this could indicate a long-entry pattern.
If the fast RSI crosses below the slow RSI, this could indicate a short-entry pattern.
Interpretation and Signals: Including Moving Averages
Including moving averages for both the short- and long-period RSI can help identify the base trend of the movement and, consequently:
Avoid false signals.
Trade in favor of the trend.
A simple way to start working with these is to use the crossover of the moving averages to identify the current trend:
If the short-period SMA is above the long-period SMA, the trend is bullish.
If the short-period SMA is below the long-period SMA, the trend is bearish.
Interpretation and Signals: The Histogram
The histogram represents the difference between the moving averages. If the histogram is positive, the short average is above the long average. If the histogram is below zero, the short average is below the long average. Divergences with price provide signals of potential exhaustion in the movement, indicating a possible reversal.
Indicator Details
This indicator builds upon the traditional RSI by integrating additional features that enhance its utility for traders. Here’s how each component is calculated and how they contribute to the originality of the script:
Fast RSI and Slow RSI: The fast RSI is calculated using a shorter lookback period, allowing it to capture rapid changes in momentum. The slow RSI uses a longer period to smooth out fluctuations and provide a broader view of the trend. These two RSIs work together to identify significant momentum shifts.
SMA of RSI values: The simple moving averages (SMA) of the fast and slow RSI help filter out noise and provide clear crossover signals. The SMAs are calculated using standard formulas but applied to the RSI values rather than price data, which adds a layer of insight into momentum trends.
Histogram calculation: The histogram represents the difference between the SMA of the fast RSI and the SMA of the slow RSI. This value gives a visual representation of the convergence or divergence of momentum. When the histogram crosses zero, it signifies a potential shift in the underlying trend.
This indicator combines multiple layers of analysis: fast and slow momentum, trend confirmation through SMAs, and divergence detection via the histogram. This multi-dimensional approach provides traders with a more comprehensive tool for trend analysis and decision-making.
Conclusion
This article has explored how to use this indicator to identify trends, leverage entry patterns, and analyze divergences by combining the fast RSI, slow RSI, their moving averages, and a histogram. Additionally, I’ve detailed how I usually interpret this indicator:
Identifying RSI patterns to anticipate momentum changes.
Using SMAs to confirm base trends.
Leveraging the histogram to detect divergences and potential price reversals.

16. SMC Strategy with SL - low TimeframeOverview
The "SMC Strategy with SL - low Timeframe" is a comprehensive trading strategy that uses key concepts from Smart Money Theory to identify favorable areas in the market for buying or selling. This strategy takes advantage of price imbalances, support and resistance zones, and swing highs/lows to generate high-probability trade signals.
The key features of this strategy include:
Swing High/Low Analysis: Used to determine the Premium, Equilibrium, and Discount Zones.
Order Block Integration: An added layer of confluence to identify valid buy and sell signals.
Trend Direction Confirmation: Using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to determine the overall trend.
Entry and Exit Rules: Based on price position relative to key zones and moving average, along with optional stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Detailed Description
Swing High and Swing Low Analysis
The script calculates Swing High and Swing Low based on the most recent price highs and lows over a specified look-back period (swingHighLength and swingLowLength, set to 8 by default).
It then derives the Premium, Equilibrium, and Discount Zones:
Premium Zone: Represents potential resistance, calculated based on recent swing highs.
Discount Zone: Represents potential support, calculated based on recent swing lows.
Equilibrium: The midpoint between Swing High and Swing Low, dividing the price range into Premium (above equilibrium) and Discount (below equilibrium) areas.
Zone Visualization
The strategy plots the Premium Zone (resistance) in red, the Discount Zone (support) in green, and the Equilibrium level in blue on the chart. This helps visually assess the current price relative to these important areas.
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
A 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) is added to help identify the trend direction.
Buy signals are valid only if the price is above the SMA, indicating an uptrend.
Sell signals are valid only if the price is below the SMA, indicating a downtrend.
Entry Rules
The script generates buy or sell signals when certain conditions are met:
A buy signal is triggered when:
Price is below the Equilibrium and within the Discount Zone.
Price is above the SMA.
The buy signal is further confirmed by the presence of an Order Block (recent lowest price area).
A sell signal is triggered when:
Price is above the Equilibrium and within the Premium Zone.
Price is below the SMA.
The sell signal is further confirmed by the presence of an Order Block (recent highest price area).
Order Block
The strategy defines Order Blocks as recent highs and lows within a look-back period (orderBlockLength set to 20 by default).
These blocks represent areas where large players (smart money) have historically been active, increasing the probability of the price reacting in these areas again.
Trade Management and Trade Direction
The user can set Trade Direction to either "Long Only," "Short Only," or "Both." This allows the strategy to adapt based on market conditions or trading preferences.
Based on the Trade Direction, the strategy either:
Closes open trades that are against new signals.
Allows only specific directional trades (either long or short).
Stop-loss levels are defined based on a fixed percentage (stop_loss_percent), which helps to manage risk and minimize losses.
Exit Rules
The strategy uses stop-loss levels for risk management.
A stop-loss price is set at a fixed percentage below the entry price for long positions or above the entry price for short positions.
When the price hits the defined stop-loss level, the trade is closed.
Liquidity Zones
The script identifies recent Swing Highs and Lows as potential liquidity zones. These are levels where price could react strongly, as they represent areas of interest for large traders.
The liquidity zones are plotted as crosses on the chart, marking areas where price may encounter significant buying or selling pressure.
Visual Feedback
The script uses visual markers (green for buy signals and red for sell signals) to indicate potential entries on the chart.
It also plots liquidity zones to help traders identify areas where stop hunts and liquidity grabs might occur.
Monthly Performance Dashboard
The script includes a performance tracking feature that displays monthly profit and loss metrics on the chart.
This dashboard allows the trader to see a visual representation of trading performance over time, providing insights into profitability and consistency.
The table shows profit or loss for each month and year, allowing the user to track the overall success of the strategy.
Key Benefits
Smart Money Concepts (SMC): This strategy incorporates SMC principles like order blocks and liquidity zones, which are used by institutional traders to determine potential market moves.
Zone Analysis: The use of Premium, Discount, and Equilibrium zones provides a solid framework for determining where to enter and exit trades based on price discounts or premiums.
Confluence: Signals are not taken in isolation. They are confirmed by factors like trend direction (SMA) and order blocks, providing greater trade accuracy.
Risk Management: By integrating stop-loss functionality, traders can manage their risks effectively.
Visual Performance Metrics: The monthly and yearly performance dashboard gives valuable feedback on how well the strategy has performed historically.
Practical Use
Buy in Discount Zone: Traders would be looking to buy when the price is discounted relative to its recent range and is above the SMA, indicating an overall uptrend.
Sell in Premium Zone: Conversely, traders would be looking to sell when the price is at a premium relative to its recent range and below the SMA, indicating an overall downtrend.
Order Block Confirmation: Ensures that buying or selling is supported by historical price behavior at significant levels, providing confidence that the market is likely to react at these areas.
This strategy is designed to help traders take advantage of price inefficiencies and areas where institutional traders are likely to be active, increasing the odds of successful trades. By leveraging Smart Money concepts and strong technical confluence, it aims to provide high-probability trade setups.
