AK TREND ID v1.00Hello,
"Are we at the top yet ? "........ " Is it a good time to invest ? " ......." Should I buy or sell ? " These are the many questions I hear and get on the daily basis. 1000's of investors do not know when to go in and out of the market. Most of them rely on the opinion of "experts" on television to make their investment decisions. Bad idea.Taking a systematic approach when investing, could save you a lot of time and headache. If there was only a way to know when to get in and out of the market !! hmmmm. The good news is that there many ways to do that. The bad news is , are you disciplined enough to follow it ?
I coded the AK_TREND ID specifically to identified trends in the SPX or SPY only . How does it work ? very simply , I simply plot the spread between the 3 month and 8 month moving average on the chart.
If the spread > 0 @ month end = BUY
if the spread < 0 @ month end = SELL
The AK TREND ID is a LAGGING Indicator , so it will not get you in at the very bottom or get you out at the very top. I did a backtest on the SPX from 1984 to 7/2/2014 (yesterday), The rule was to buy only when the AK TREND ID was green. let's look at the result:
14 trades : 11 W 3 L , 78.75 % winning %
Biggest winner (%) = 108 %
Biggest loser (%) = -10.7 %
Average Return = 27 %
Total Return since 1984 = 351.3 %
You can see the result in detail here : docs.google.com
Although the backtesting results are good, the AK TREND ID is not to be used as a trading system. It is simply design to let you know when to invest and when to get out. I'm working a more accurate version of this Indicator , that will use both technical and fundamental data. In the mean time , I hope this will give some of you piece of mind, and eliminate emotions from your trading decision. Feel free to modify the code as you wish, but please share your finding with the rest of Trading View community.
All the best

Overnight Z/VolRatio SignalThis indicator highlights overnight setups where both volatility expansion and prior-day range deviation suggest directional opportunity at the RTH open.
It calculates:
• Overnight Z-Score (Z_long): how far the overnight session’s range tilts from the 20-day overnight mean, standardized by its standard deviation.
• VolRatio: ratio of the current RTH session volume to the 20-day average, a proxy for participation and conviction.
Signal Logic (LONG bias)
A long-bias condition triggers when:
• Z_long ≥ 0.40 (overnight tilt strongly positive)
• VolRatio ≥ 1.30 (above-average RTH volume)
• Optional filters: R1/R4 region alignment, YDH/YDL proximity, and other context flags.
Visuals mark qualifying days with colored labels and session highlights.
It is intended as a context signal — not an auto-trading system — for SPY/SPX/ES or correlated large-cap indices.
Usage Notes
• Works best when applied to daily or intraday 5m chart with extended hours enabled.
• Typical exit: ~150 minutes after 09:30 ET.
• Fridays are optionally excluded to avoid expiration-related distortions.

Hosoda’s CloudsMany investors aim to develop trading systems with a high win rate, mistakenly associating it with substantial profits. In reality, high returns are typically achieved through greater exposure to market trends, which inevitably lowers the win rate due to increased risk and more volatile conditions.
The system I present, called “Hosoda’s Clouds” in honor of Goichi Hosoda , the creator of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator, is likely one of the first profitable systems many traders will encounter. Designed to capture trends, it performs best in markets with clear directional movements and is less suitable for range-bound markets like Forex, which often exhibit lateral price action.
This system is not recommended for low timeframes, such as minute charts, due to the random and emotionally driven nature of price movements in those periods. For a deeper exploration of this topic, I recommend reading my article “Timeframe is Everything”, which discusses the critical importance of selecting the appropriate timeframe.
I suggest testing and applying the “Hosoda’s Clouds” strategy on assets with a strong trending nature and a proven track record of performance. Ideal markets include Tesla (1-hour, 4-hour, and daily), BTC/USDT (daily), SPY (daily), and XAU/USD (daily), as these have consistently shown clear directional trends over time.
Commissions and Configuration
Commissions can be adjusted in the system’s settings to suit individual needs. For evaluating the effectiveness of “Hosoda’s Clouds,” I’ve used a standard commission of $1 per order as a baseline, though this can be modified in the code to accommodate different brokers or preferences.
The margin per trade is set to $1,000 by default, but users are encouraged to experiment with different margin settings in the configuration to match their trading style.
Rules of the “Hosoda’s Clouds” System (Bullish Strategy)
This strategy is designed to capture trending movements in bullish markets using the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator. The rules are as follows:
Long Entry: A long position is triggered when the Tenkan-sen crosses above the Kijun-sen below the Ichimoku cloud, identifying potential reversals or bounces in a bearish context.
Stop Loss (SL): Placed at the low of the candle 12 bars prior to the entry candle. This setting has proven optimal in my tests, but it can be adjusted in the code based on risk tolerance.
Take Profit (TP): The position is closed when the Tenkan-sen crosses below the bottom of the Ichimoku cloud (the minimum of Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B).
Notes on the Code
margin_long=0: Ideal for strategies requiring a fixed position size, particularly useful for manual entries or testing with a constant capital allocation.
margin_long=100: Recommended for high-frequency systems where positions are closed quickly, simulating gradual growth based on realized profits and reflecting real-world broker constraints.

DynamoSent DynamoSent Pro+ — Professional Listing (Preview)
— Adaptive Macro Sentiment (v6)
— Export, Adaptive Lookback, Confidence, Boxes, Heatmap + Dynamic OB/OS
Preview / Experimental build. I’m actively refining this tool—your feedback is gold.
If you spot edge cases, want new presets, or have market-specific ideas, please comment or DM me on TradingView.
⸻
What it is
DynamoSent Pro+ is an adaptive, non-repainting macro sentiment engine that compresses VIX, DXY and a price-based activity proxy (e.g., SPX/sector ETF/your symbol) into a 0–100 sentiment line. It scales context by volatility (ATR%) and can self-calibrate with rolling quantile OB/OS. On top of that, it adds confidence scoring, a plain-English Context Coach, MTF agreement, exportable sentiment for other indicators, and a clean Light/Dark UI.
Why it’s different
• Adaptive lookback tracks regime changes: when volatility rises, we lengthen context; when it falls, we shorten—less whipsaw, more relevance.
• Dynamic OB/OS (quantiles) self-calibrates to each instrument’s distribution—no arbitrary 30/70 lines.
• MTF agreement + Confidence gate reduce false positives by highlighting alignment across timeframes.
• Exportable output: hidden plot “DynamoSent Export” can be selected as input.source in your other Pine scripts.
• Non-repainting rigor: all request.security() calls use lookahead_off + gaps_on; signals wait for bar close.
Key visuals
• Sentiment line (0–100), OB/OS zones (static or dynamic), optional TF1/TF2 overlays.
• Regime boxes (Overbought / Oversold / Neutral) that update live without repaint.
• Info Panel with confidence heat, regime, trend arrow, MTF readout, and Coach sentence.
• Session heat (Asia/EU/US) to match intraday behavior.
• Light/Dark theme switch in Inputs (auto-contrasted labels & headers).
⸻
How to use (examples & recipes)
1) EURUSD (swing / intraday blend)
• Preset: EURUSD 1H Swing
• Chart: 1H; TF1=1H, TF2=4H (default).
• Proxies: Defaults work (VIX=D, DXY=60, Proxy=D).
• Dynamic OB/OS: ON at 20/80; Confidence ≥ 55–60.
• Playbook:
• When sentiment crosses above 50 + margin with Δ ≥ signalK and MTF agreement ≥ 0.5, treat as trend breakout.
• In Oversold with rising Coach & TF agreement, take fade longs back toward mid-range.
• Alerts: Enable Breakout Long/Short and Fade; keep cooldown 8–12 bars.
2) SPY (daytrading)
• Preset: SPY 15m Daytrade; Chart: 15m.
• VIX (D) matters more; preset weights already favor it.
• Start with static 30/70; later try dynamic 25/75 for adaptive thresholds.
• Use Coach: in US session, when it says “Overbought + MTF agree → sell rallies / chase breakouts”, lean momentum-continuation after pullbacks.
3) BTCUSD (crypto, 24/7)
• Preset: BTCUSD 1H; Chart: 1H.
• DXY and BTC.D inform macro tone; keep Carry-forward ON to bridge sparse ticks.
• Prefer Dynamic OB/OS (15/85) for wider swings.
• Fade signals on weekend chop; Breakout when Confidence > 60 and MTF ≥ 1.0.
4) XAUUSD (gold, macro blend)
• Preset: XAUUSD 4H; Chart: 4H.
• Weights tilt to DXY and US10Y (handled by preset).
• Coach + MTF helps separate trend legs from news pops.
⸻
Best practices
• Theme: Switch Light/Dark in Inputs; the panel adapts contrast automatically.
• Export: In another script → Source → DynamoSent Pro+ → DynamoSent Export. Build your own filters/strategies atop the same sentiment.
• Dynamic vs Static OB/OS:
• Static 30/70: fast, universal baseline.
• Dynamic (quantiles): instrument-aware; use 20/80 (default) or 15/85 for choppy markets.
• Confidence gate: Start at 50–60% to filter noise; raise when you want only A-grade setups.
• Adaptive Lookback: Keep ON. For ultra-liquid indices, you can switch it OFF and set a fixed lookback.
⸻
Non-repainting & safety notes
• All request.security() calls use lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off and gaps=barmerge.gaps_on.
• No forward references; signals & regime flips are confirmed on bar close.
• History-dependent funcs (ta.change, ta.percentile_linear_interpolation, etc.) are computed each bar (not conditionally).
• Adaptive lookback is clamped ≥ 1 to avoid lowest/highest errors.
• Missing-data warning triggers only when all proxies are NA for a streak; carry-forward can bridge small gaps without repaint.
⸻
Known limits & tips
• If a proxy symbol isn’t available on your plan/exchange, you’ll see the NA warning: choose a different symbol via Symbol Search, or keep Carry-forward ON (it defaults to neutral where needed).
• Intraday VIX is sparse—using Daily is intentional.
• Dynamic OB/OS needs enough history (see dynLenFloor). On short histories it gracefully falls back to static levels.
Thanks for trying the preview. Your comments drive the roadmap—presets, new proxies, extra alerts, and integrations.
Relative Strength vs. Benchmark (相對強度)This "Relative Strength vs. Benchmark" indicator helps you see a stock's true performance against a benchmark (like the S&P 500) at a glance. By calculating the price ratio between the two, it strips away the overall market noise, allowing you to focus on identifying true market leaders and underperforming laggards.
How It Works
Core Formula: Relative Strength = Stock Price / Benchmark Index Price
A Rising Line: Means the stock is outperforming the benchmark.
A Falling Line: Means the stock is underperforming the benchmark.
The indicator also includes a Moving Average (MA) of the Relative Strength line itself. This MA helps to confirm the trend of relative strength and filter out short-term noise.
How to Use
Find Market Leaders: When the market is in an uptrend or consolidating, look for stocks whose RS line is breaking out to new highs.
Avoid Laggards: If the RS line is consistently below its moving average or making new lows, the stock is significantly underperforming the market and should be treated with caution.
Trend Change Signals: A cross of the RS line above its MA can be seen as a signal that a new trend of relative outperformance is beginning. A cross below suggests the trend is weakening.
Features & Settings
Customizable Benchmark: You can change the default benchmark from TWSE:TSE to any symbol you need, such as SP:SPX for the S&P 500 or NASDAQ:NDX for the Nasdaq 100.
Adjustable MA Length: Customize the period for the RS Moving Average to fit your trading style (short-term or long-term).
Visual Toggle: Easily turn the colored background fill on or off according to your preference.
Hope you find this tool helpful in your analysis!
QQQ Ladder → Adjusted to Active Ticker (5s & 10s)This indicator allows you to a grid of QQQ levels directly on futures chart like NQ, MNQ, ES and MES, automatically adjusting for the spread between the displayed symbol and QQQ. This is particularly useful for traders who perform technical analysis on QQQ but execute trades on Futures.
Features:
Renders every 5 and 10 points steps of QQQ in your current chart.
The script adjusts these levels in real-time based on the current spread between QQQ and the displayed symbol!
Plots updated horizontal lines that move with the spread
Supports Multiple Tickers, ES1!, MES1!, NQ1!, MNQ1! SPY and SPX500USD.
NDX Ladder → Adjusted to Active Ticker (5s & 10s)This indicator allows you to a grid of NDX levels directly on the NQ! (E-mini NASDAQ 100 Futures) chart, automatically adjusting for the spread between NDX and NQ1!. This is particularly useful for traders who perform technical analysis on SPX but execute trades on NQ1!.
Features:
Renders every 5 and 10 points steps of the NDX in your current chart.
The script adjusts these levels in real-time based on the current spread between NDX and NQ / MNQ
Plots updated horizontal lines that move with the spread
Futures Forward Price [NeoButane]In futures markets, the theoretical value of a futures contract can be derived from its underlying price and cost of carry. By baking in the costs and potential yields, the theoretical forward price then be used in basis against futures prices in place of the underlying spot price.
Usage
The script creates plots on the main chart and a separate window pane. Both are meant to be used to visualize dislocations in the market.
By using a futures vs. forward basis instead of futures vs. spot basis, discounts in the market are clearer.
Last month, the gold futures market GCZ2025 traded >1% above forward price when tariffs were announced and fell back in line once the tariffs were verbally retracted.
View roll spreads over a back-adjusted continuous chart. I guess. I don't think spread traders only look at one chart. This is as educational for me as it is you.
Configuration
The underlying reference needs to be changed to match the futures contract you are using.
The Risk-Free Rate defaults to FRED:SOFR. I found the contract month matched 3-Month SOFR Futures to be the closest for forward price.
Risk-Free Rate: The interest rate source for forward price.
Constant Risk-Free Rate: a static interest rate that can be used in advance of future changes in risk-free rate.
Underlying Reference: spot or index price. Some examples include TVC:SPX, TVC:GOLD, CRYPTO:BTCUSD, TVC:USOIL.
Forward Price Compounding: determines which formula to use. They're similar and become closer as the contract matures.
Alternative Contract: enable and select a futures contract to use it on a chart different than the main.
Storage Cost and Yield: for use with commodities. I haven't found a proper use for them yet but enabling is simple if you are able to.
The following are meant to be used with the continuous formula as they are compounded. However the rate sources don't differ much for the purpose of futures prices.
3-Month CME SOFR Futures
3-Month ICEEUR SONIA Futures
3-Month Osaka TONA Futures
The other rate sources are either meant for futures contracts shorter than quarterly such as monthly crypto futures or were meant to help myself understand how different rates would align with futures prices, like inflation.
What this script does
It uses the cost of carry formula to output the forward price (red line). The underlying reference (green line) is plotted alongside and a futures-derived reference (blue line) can be displayed to see how it looks next to the real reference price.
The data pane displays either the nominal difference or percentage difference between the real futures price and the calculated forward price.

ICT FVG Buy/Sell SignalsThis bot is built on ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts such as:
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) – imbalance zones between candles.
Consequent Encroachment (CE) – the midpoint of a gap.
Premium / Discount Arrays – dealing ranges split into premium (sell-side) and discount (buy-side) zones.
Displacement candles – strong impulsive moves that confirm intent.
The bot scans for FVGs, marks CE levels, and waits for price to return to these levels.
When price revisits a valid FVG zone with displacement confirmation and in the correct PD array, the bot generates a BUY or SELL signal.
✅ Signal Rules
Buy Signal
Price trades back into a Bullish FVG.
Current bar shows bullish displacement (large bullish body relative to ATR).
Price is in discount territory of the current dealing range (if PD filter is enabled).
Close is above the CE line of the FVG.
Sell Signal
Price trades back into a Bearish FVG.
Current bar shows bearish displacement.
Price is in premium territory of the current dealing range.
Close is below the CE line of the FVG.
🎯 What You’ll See on the Chart
Green “BUY” labels below candles when long signals trigger.
Red “SELL” labels above candles when short signals trigger.
Shaded background:
Red = Premium zone (sell side).
Teal = Discount zone (buy side).
Yellow line = dealing range midpoint (equilibrium).
Dots on CE lines = midpoints of the latest bullish/bearish FVG.
🔔 Alerts
ICT Buy → Triggers when a bullish setup confirms.
ICT Sell → Triggers when a bearish setup confirms.
You can connect these alerts to:
TradingView notifications.
Webhooks (for brokers or bots like MetaTrader, NinjaTrader, or Discord).
⚙️ Settings
Swing length – how many bars to use when detecting swing highs/lows for the dealing range.
Use PD filter – toggle ON/OFF for requiring discount/premium alignment.
Displacement ATR multiple – how strong the candle body must be compared to ATR to count as a displacement.
ATR length – used for displacement filter.
📈 Supported Markets
Works on all symbols and timeframes.
Commonly applied to:
NASDAQ (NQ, QQQ)
S&P500 (ES, SPX, SPY)

Market Internal Strength (DJI/Nasdaq/S&P)Market Health Dow, Nasdaq & S\&P 500 Breadth
Track the true internal health of the US market's three most important indices the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI), the Nasdaq 100 (NDX), and the S\&P 500 (SPX).
Price action alone can be deceiving. A rising index might be driven by only a handful of mega-cap stocks, masking underlying weakness. This indicator provides a crucial look "under the hood" to measure the market's true breadth.
It visualizes the percentage of stocks within each index that are trading above their key moving averages (5, 20, 50, 100, 150, and 200-day). This allows you to instantly gauge whether a market trend is broadly supported by the majority of its constituent stocks.
Key Features
* Covers 3 Major US Indices Seamlessly switch your analysis between the Dow Jones, Nasdaq 100, and S\&P 500.
* Complete Breadth Picture Six MA periods offer a full view, from short-term momentum (5D, 20D) to the long-term institutional trend (150D, 200D).
* Fully Customizable Toggle the visibility of any line and adjust overbought/oversold levels to fit your personal strategy.
How to Use
1. Extreme Readings (Overbought/Oversold)
* Above 80% Signals a very strong, potentially overbought market. Caution is advised as a pullback could be near.
* Below 20% Signals a deeply oversold market, often indicating capitulation and potential buying opportunities.
2. Divergence (Powerful Warning Signal)
* Bearish The index price makes a new high, but this indicator makes a lower high. This warns that the rally is not broad-based and may be losing steam.
* Bullish The index price makes a new low, but this indicator makes a higher low. This suggests internal strength is building and a bottom may be forming.
3. Trend Confirmation
When the long-term lines (150D, 200D) remain high (e.g., \> 50%), the primary market trend is healthy and confirmed.
Overnight Gap Dominance Indicator (OGDI)The Overnight Gap Dominance Indicator (OGDI) measures the relative volatility of overnight price gaps versus intraday price movements for a given security, such as SPY or SPX. It uses a rolling standard deviation of absolute overnight percentage changes divided by the standard deviation of absolute intraday percentage changes over a customizable window. This helps traders identify periods where overnight gaps predominate, suggesting potential opportunities for strategies leveraging extended market moves.
Instructions
A
pply the indicator to your TradingView chart for the desired security (e.g., SPY or SPX).
Adjust the "Rolling Window" input to set the lookback period (default: 60 bars).
Modify the "1DTE Threshold" and "2DTE+ Threshold" inputs to tailor the levels at which you switch from 0DTE to 1DTE or multi-DTE strategies (default: 0.5 and 0.6).
Observe the OGDI line: values above the 1DTE threshold suggest favoring 1DTE strategies, while values above the 2DTE+ threshold indicate multi-DTE strategies may be more effective.
Use in conjunction with low VIX environments and uptrend legs for optimal results.
Pure Price Zone Flow🔎 What this indicator is
It’s a price-action-based zone indicator. Unlike moving average systems, this one relies only on:
1. Swing Highs & Swing Lows → The highest and lowest points within a recent lookback period (like "mini support & resistance").
2. ATR (Average True Range) → A volatility measure that expands the zone, making it more adaptive to different market conditions.
3. Breakouts & Retests → When price breaks above a swing high (bullish) or below a swing low (bearish), the indicator marks it and highlights the new trend.
👉 The goal is to spot clean structure shifts and define clear trend zones where traders can position themselves.
________________________________________
⚙️ How it is calculated
1. Swing High & Swing Low
o We look back len candles (default 20).
o Find the highest high (swingHigh) and the lowest low (swingLow) in that window.
o This forms the price range zone.
2. ATR Expansion
o We calculate ATR over the same len.
o Add/subtract it (multiplied by atrMult) to the zone edges to expand them.
o This ensures the zones breathe with volatility (tight in quiet markets, wide in choppy ones).
3. Mid-Zone
o Simply the average of swingHigh and swingLow.
o If price is above mid → bullish bias.
o If below mid → bearish bias.
o This gives us the trend color for candles.
4. Breakouts
o If the close crosses above swingHigh, we mark a bullish breakout with a label.
o If the close crosses below swingLow, we mark a bearish breakdown.

1. Identifying Structure Shifts
o Many traders watch swing highs/lows for breakouts or reversals.
o This automates the process and visually confirms when structure is broken.
2. Dynamic Zone Trading
o Instead of fixed support/resistance, the ATR expansion adapts to volatility.
o This avoids false signals in high-volatility conditions.
3. Trend Bias at a Glance
o Candle coloring instantly tells you whether price is in bullish or bearish territory relative to the mid-zone.
4. Breakout Confirmation
o The labels show when a breakout has occurred, so traders can react quickly (e.g., enter with trend, wait for retest, or avoid fading moves).
________________________________________
🌍 Markets it works best in
• Crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.): Very effective since crypto is breakout-driven and respects swing levels.
• Forex: Good for volatility-adaptive structure analysis, especially in trending pairs.
• Indices (SPX, NASDAQ, DAX, NIFTY): Useful for breakout trading during session opens or key news events.
• Commodities (Gold, Oil, Silver): Works well to define intraday ranges and breakout levels.
⚠️ Less useful in low-volatility, mean-reverting assets (like some penny stocks or sideways ranges), because breakouts may be rare or fake.

💡 How it adds value
• Strips away unnecessary complexity (no lagging averages).
• Focuses directly on what price is doing structurally.
• Adaptive → works across different markets & timeframes.
• Easy visualization → zones, trend coloring, breakout markers.
• Helps traders trade with the flow of the market, instead of guessing tops/bottoms.

👉 In short:
This indicator turns raw price action into clear, actionable zones.
It highlights when the market shifts from balance to breakout, so traders can align with momentum rather than fighting it.
RRG Relative Strength# RRG Relative Strength (RRG RS)
Compare any symbol to a benchmark using two RRG-style lines: **RS-Ratio** (trend of relative strength) and **RS-Momentum** (momentum of that trend). Both are centered at **100**:
- **RS-Ratio > 100** → outperforming the benchmark
- **RS-Ratio < 100** → underperforming
- **RS-Momentum** often **leads** RS-Ratio (crosses 100 earlier)
# How it works
1) Relative Strength (RS): RS = Close(symbol) / Close(benchmark)
2) Normalize around 100: smooth RS with EMA and divide RS by that EMA
3) RS-Ratio: EMA( RS / EMA(RS, Length), LenSmooth ) * 100
4) RS-Momentum: RS-Ratio / EMA(RS-Ratio, LenSmooth) * 100
# Inputs
- Length (default 14): normalization window for RS
- Length Smooth (default 20): smoothing window for RS-Ratio & RS-Momentum
# Benchmark (auto)
- US: SP:SPX (S&P 500)
- Vietnam: HOSE:VNINDEX
- Crypto: INDEX:BTCUSD
(Modify the mapping if needed, or replace with your own input.symbol().)
# How to read
- Improving: RS-Momentum crosses above 100 while RS-Ratio turns up
- Leading: RS-Ratio > 100 with RS-Momentum ≥ 100
- Weakening: RS-Momentum drops below 100; RS-Ratio often follows
# Timeframes & presets
- Works on Daily and Weekly charts
- Daily (fast): 14 / 20
- Approx. weekly behavior on Daily: 50 / 60
Note: Values usually hover near 100 (e.g., ~90–110) but are not strictly bounded. Ensure your symbol and benchmark trade in comparable sessions/currencies.
Extended CANSLIM Indicator❖ Extended CANSLIM Indicator.
The Extended CANSLIM indicator is an indicator that concentrates all the tools usually used by CANSLIM traders.
It shows a table where all the stock fundamental information is shown at once first for the last quarter and then up to 5 years back.
The fundamental data is checked against well known CANSLIM validation criteria and is shown over 4 state levels.

❖ Historical Data.
Optionally selectable historical data can be displayed for C, A, Revenue and ROE up to 20 quarters if available.
Quarterly numbers can also be displayed for A, C and Revenue.
Information can be shown in Chronological or Reverse Chronological order (default).
Increasing growth quarters are shown in white, while diminuing ones are shown in Yellow.
Transition from Losing to Profitable quarters are shown with an exclamation mark ‘!’
Finally, losing quarters are shown between parenthesis.
❖ MAs on chart.
Displays 200, 100, 50 and 20 days MAs on chart.
The MAs are also automatically scaled in the 1W time frame.
❖ New 52 Week High on chart.
A sun is shown on the chart the first time that a new 52 week high is reached.
The N cell shows a filled sun when a 52 week high is no older than a month, an lighter sun when it’s no older than a quarter or a moon otherwise.
❖ Pocket Pivots on chart.
Small triangles below the price are signaling pocket pivots.
❖ Bases on chart, formerly Darvas Boxes.
Draw bases as defined by Darvas boxes, both top or bottom of bases can be selected to be shown in order to only show resistance or support.
❖ Market exposure/direction indicator.
When charting S&P500 (SPX), Nasdaq 100 Index (NDX), Nasdaq composite (IXIC) or Dow Jownes Index (DJIA), the indicator switches to Market Exposure indicator, showing also Accumulation/Distribution days when volume information is available. This indication which varies from 0% to 100% is what is shown under the M letter in the CANSLIM table which is calculated on the S&P500.
❖ Follow Through Days indicator.
If you are an adept of the Low-cheat entry, then you will be highly interested by the Follow Through days indicator as measured in the S&P 500 and shown as diamonds on the chart.
The follow-through days are calculated on S&P500 but shown in current stock chart so you don’t need to chart the S&P 500 to know that a follow through day occurred.
Follow Through days show correctly on Daily time frame and most are also shown on the Weekly time frame as well.
They are also classified according to the market zone in which they occur:
0%-5% from peak = Pullback : FT day is not shown.
5%-10% from peak = Minor Correction : Minor FT days is shown.
10%-20% from peak = Correction : Intermediate FT days us shown
20+% from peak = Bear Market : Makor FT days is shown
❖ RS Line and Rating indicator.
A RS Line and Rating indicator can be added to the chart.
Relative Strength Rating Accuracy.
Please note that the RS Rating is not 100% accurate when compared to IBD values.
❖ Earning Line indicator.
An Earning Line indicator can be added to the chart.
❖ ATR Bands and ATR Trade calculator.
The motivation for this calculator came from my own need to enter trades on volatile stocks where the simple 7% Stop Loss rule doest not work.
It simply calculates the number of shares you can buy at any moment based on current stock price and using the lower ATR band as a stop loss.
A few words about the ATR Bands.
On this indicator the ATR bands are not drawn as a classical channel that follows the price.
The lower band is drawn as a support until it’s broken on a closing basis. It can’t be in a down trend.
The upper band is drawn as a resistance until it’s broken on a closing basis. It can’t be in an up trend.
The idea is that when price starts to fall down from a peak, it should not violate its lower band ATR and that means that we can use that level as a Stop Loss.
You must look back for the stock volatility and find out which ATR multiplier works well meaning that the ATR bands are not violated on normal pullbacks. By default, the indicator uses 5x multiplier.
❖ Extra things, visual features and default settings.
The first square cell of current quarter displays a check mark ‘V’ if the CANSLIM criteria is OK or acceptable or a cross ‘X’ otherwise.
The first square cell of historical C and Rev show respectively the count of last consecutive positive quarters.
There are different color themes from “Forest” to “Space” you can chose from to best fit your eyes.
You also have different table sizes going from “Micro” to “Huge” for better adjustment to the size of your display.
The default settings view show: Pocket Pivots, FT Days, MA50, RS Line and ATR Bands.
That's all, Enjoy!
Adaptive Correlation Engine (ACE)🧠 Adaptive Correlation Engine (ACE)
Quantify inter-asset relationships with adaptive lag detection and actionable insights.
📌 What is ACE?
The Adaptive Correlation Engine (ACE) is a precision tool for seeking to uncover meaningful relationships between two assets — not just raw correlation, but also lag dynamics, leader detection, and alignment vs. divergence classification.
Unlike static correlation tools, ACE intelligently scans multiple lag windows to find:
✅ The maximum correlation between the base asset and a comparison symbol
⏱️ The optimal lag (if any) at which the correlation is strongest
🧭 Whether the assets are Aligned (positive correlation) or Divergent (inverse)
🔁 Which symbol is leading, and by how many bars
📈 Actionable signal strength based on a user-defined correlation threshold
⚙️ How It Works
Correlation Scan:
For each bar, ACE checks the correlation between the charted asset (close) and a lagged version of the comparison asset across a sliding window of lookback periods.
Lag Optimization:
The engine searches from lag 0 up to your specified Max Lag to find where the correlation (positive or negative) is most significant.
Relationship Classification:
The indicator classifies the relationship as:
Aligned: Positive correlation above the threshold
Divergent: Negative correlation above the threshold
Synchronous: No lag detected
Low Signal: Correlation is weak or noisy
Visual & Tabular Insights:
ACE plots the highest detected correlation on the chart and shows an insight table displaying:
- Correlation value
- Detected lag
- Direction type (aligned/divergent)
- Leading asset
- Suggested action (e.g., “Likely continuation” or “Possible mean reversion”)
💡 How to Use It
Use ACE to identify leadership patterns between assets (e.g., ETH leads altcoins, SPX leads crypto, etc.)
Spot potential lagging trade setups where one asset’s move may soon echo in another
Confirm or challenge correlation-based trading assumptions with data
Combine with technical indicators or price action to time entries and exits more confidently
🔔 Alerts
Built-in alerts notify you when correlation strength crosses your actionable threshold, classified by alignment or divergence.
🛠️ Inputs
Compare Symbol: The asset to compare against (e.g., INDEX:ETHUSD)
Correlation Lookback: Rolling window for calculating correlation
Max Lag Bars: Maximum lag shift to test
Minimum Actionable Correlation: Signal threshold for trade-worthy insights

Dynamic 5DMA/EMA with Color for Multiple Products🔹 Dynamic 5DMA/EMA with Slope-Based Coloring (All Timeframes)
This indicator plots a dynamic 5-period moving average that adapts intelligently to your chart's timeframe and product type — giving you a clean, slope-sensitive visual edge across intraday, daily, and weekly views.
✅ Key Features:
📈 Dynamic MA Length Scaling:
On intraday timeframes, the MA adjusts for your selected market session (RTH, ETH, VIX, or Futures), calculating a true 5-day average based on actual session length — not just a flat bar count.
🔄 Automatic Timeframe Detection:
Daily Chart: Uses standard 5DMA or 5EMA.
Weekly Chart: Applies a true 5-week MA.
Intraday Charts: Converts 5 days into bar-length equivalent dynamically.
🎨 Color-Coded Slope Logic:
Green = Rising MA (bullish slope)
Red = Falling MA (bearish slope)
Neutral slope = previous color held for visual continuity
No more guessing — direction is instantly clear.
⚠️ Built-In Slope Flip Alerts:
Set alerts when the slope of the MA turns up or down. Ideal for timing pullback entries or exits across any product.
⚙️ Session Settings for Proper Scaling:
Choose your product's market structure to ensure accurate 5-day conversion on intraday charts:
Stocks - RTH: 390 mins/day
Stocks - ETH: 780 mins/day
VIX: 855 mins/day
Futures: 1440 mins/day
This ensures the MA reflects 5 full trading days, regardless of session irregularities or bar interval.
📌 Why Use This Indicator?
Most MAs misrepresent trend direction on intraday charts because they assume static daily bar counts. This tool corrects that, then adds slope-based coloring to give you a fast, visual read on short-term momentum. Whether you’re swing trading SPY, scalping VIX, or position trading futures, this indicator keeps your view aligned with how institutions see moving averages across timeframes.
🔧 Best For:
VIX & volatility traders
Short-term SPY/SPX traders
Swing traders who value clean setups
Anyone wanting a true 5-day trend anchor on any chart

IV PercentileIV Percentile Indicator - Brief Description
What It Does
The IV Percentile Indicator measures where current implied volatility ranks compared to the past year, showing what percentage of time volatility was lower than today's level.
How It Works
Data Collection:
Tracks implied volatility (or historical volatility as proxy) for each trading day
Stores the last 252 days (1 year) of volatility readings
Uses VIX data for SPY/SPX, historical volatility for other stocks
Calculation:
IV Percentile = (Days with IV below current level) ÷ (Total days) × 100
Example: If IV Percentile = 75%, it means current volatility is higher than 75% of the past year's readings.
Visual Output
Main Display:
Blue line showing percentile (0-100%)
Reference lines at key levels (20%, 30%, 50%, 70%, 80%)
Color-coded backgrounds for quick identification
Info table with current readings
Key Levels:
80%+ (Red): Very high IV → Sell premium
70-79% (Orange): High IV → Consider selling
30-20% (Green): Low IV → Consider buying
<20% (Bright Green): Very low IV → Buy premium
Trading Application
When IV Percentile is HIGH (70%+):
Options are expensive relative to recent history
Good time to sell premium (iron condors, credit spreads)
Expect volatility to decrease toward normal levels
When IV Percentile is LOW (30%-):
Options are cheap relative to recent history
Good time to buy premium (straddles, long options)
Expect volatility to increase from compressed levels
Core Logic
The indicator helps answer: "Is this a good time to buy or sell options based on how expensive/cheap they are compared to recent history?" It removes the guesswork from volatility timing by providing historical context for current option prices.
Reversal Signal avec TICK + RSIThis indicator is a potential reversal indicator for SCALPING, don't use it for swing. It's base on TICK and on an overbrought/oversold condition of the RSI. You can play with the setting, typicaly I like my TICK to be over reacting an 800/-800 and my rsi over 20 and 80, but it give not enough signal. So I set the TICK signal at 651/-651 and the RSI at 25/75. This indicator is made for SP500 and Nasdaq, so SPY/QQQ/SPX/ES/NQ should work well. It's the first version of it, so maybe I'll add so more data to it to increase signal and lower false one. For now I've test it on live market yet(26/7/25).
The RSI is Fast(5 period), I like to use it on the 1 or 5 min chart.
Please not that it only work during 9h30am to 4pm EST.(Because of the TICK)
Feel free to try and even comment. Don't be harsh on me, it's my first try!
(Sorry for my 'english' it's not my first language)

Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures (O-PLS)Version 0.1
Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures (O-PLS) Indicator for TradingView
This indicator, named "Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures (O-PLS)", is designed to help traders understand the relevance or predictive power of various market variables on the future close price of the asset it's applied to. Unlike standard correlation coefficients that show a simple linear relationship, O-PLS aims to separate variables into "predictive" (relevant to Y) and "orthogonal" (irrelevant noise) components. This Pine Script indicator provides a simplified proxy of the relevance score derived from O-PLS principles.
Purpose of the Indicator
The primary purpose of this indicator is to identify which technical factors (such as price, volume, and other indicators) have the strongest relationship with the future price movement of the current trading instrument. By providing a "relevance score" for each input variable, it helps traders focus on the most influential data points, potentially leading to more informed trading decisions.
Inputs
The indicator offers the following user-definable inputs:
* **Lookback Period:** This integer input (default: 100, min: 10, max: 500) determines the number of past bars used to calculate the relevance scores for each variable. A longer lookback period considers more historical data, which can lead to smoother, less reactive scores but might miss recent shifts in variable importance.
* **External Asset Symbol:** This symbol input (default: `BINANCE:BTCUSDT`) allows you to specify an external asset (e.g., `BINANCE:ETHUSDT`, `NASDAQ:TSLA`) whose close price will be included in the analysis as an additional variable. This is useful for cross-market analysis to see how other assets influence the current chart.
* **Plot Visibility Checkboxes (e.g., "Plot: Open Price Relevance", "Plot: Volume Relevance", etc.):** These boolean checkboxes allow you to toggle the visibility of individual relevance score plots on the chart, helping to declutter the display and focus on specific variables.
Outputs
The indicator provides two main types of output:
Relevance Score Plots: These are lines plotted in a separate pane below the main price chart. Each line corresponds to a specific market variable (Open Price, Close Price, High Price, Low Price, Volume, various RSIs, SMAs, MFI, and the External Asset Close). The value of each line represents the calculated "relevance score" for that variable, typically scaled between 0 and 10. A higher score indicates a stronger predictive relationship with the future close price.
Sorted Relevance Table : A table displayed in the top-right corner of the chart provides a clear, sorted list of all analyzed variables and their corresponding relevance scores. The table is sorted in descending order of relevance, making it easy to identify the most influential factors at a glance. Each variable name in the table is colored according to its plot color, and the external asset's name is dynamically displayed without the "BINANCE:" prefix.
How to Use the Indicator
1. **Add to Chart:** Apply the "Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures (O-PLS)" indicator to your desired trading chart (e.g., ETH/USDT).
2. **Adjust Inputs:**
* **Lookback Period:** Experiment with different lookback periods to see how the relevance scores change. A shorter period might highlight recent correlations, while a longer one might show more fundamental relationships.
* **External Asset Symbol:** If you trade BTC/USDT, you might add ETH/USDT or SPX as an external asset to see its influence.
3. **Analyze Relevance Scores:**
* **Plots:** Observe the individual relevance score plots over time. Are certain variables consistently high? Do scores change before significant price moves?
* **Table:** Refer to the sorted table on the latest confirmed bar to quickly identify the top-ranked variables.
4. **Incorporate into Strategy:** Use the insights from the relevance scores to:
* Prioritize certain indicators or price actions in your trading strategy. For example, if "Volume" has a high relevance score, it suggests volume confirmation is critical for future price moves.
* Understand the influence of inter-market relationships (via the External Asset Close).
How the Indicator Works
The indicator works by performing the following steps on each bar:
1. **Data Fetching:** It gathers historical data for various price components (open, high, low, close), volume, and calculated technical indicators (SMA, RSI, MFI) for the specified `lookback` period. It also fetches the close price of an `External Asset Symbol` .
2. **Standardization (Z-scoring):** All collected raw data series are standardized by converting them into Z-scores. This involves subtracting the mean of each series and dividing by its standard deviation . Standardization is crucial because it brings all variables to a common scale, preventing variables with larger absolute values from disproportionately influencing the correlation calculations.
3. **Correlation Calculation (Proxy for O-PLS Relevance):** The indicator then calculates a simplified form of correlation between each standardized input variable and the standardized future close price (Y variable) . This correlation is a proxy for the relevance that O-PLS would identify. A high absolute correlation indicates a strong linear relationship.
4. **Relevance Scaling:** The calculated correlation values are then scaled to a range of 0 to 10 to provide an easily interpretable "relevance score" .
5. **Output Display:** The relevance scores are presented both as time-series plots (allowing observation of changes over time) and in a real-time sorted table (for quick identification of top factors on the current bar) .
How it Differs from Full O-PLS
This indicator provides a *simplified proxy* of O-PLS principles rather than a full, mathematically rigorous O-PLS model. Here's why and how it differs:
* **Dimensionality Reduction:** A full O-PLS model would involve complex matrix factorization techniques to decompose the independent variables (X) into components that are predictive of Y and components that are orthogonal (unrelated) to Y but still describe X's variance. Pine Script's array capabilities and computational limits make direct implementation of these matrix operations challenging.
* **Orthogonal Components:** A true O-PLS model explicitly identifies and removes orthogonal components (noise) from the X data that are unrelated to Y. This indicator, in its simplified form, primarily focuses on the direct correlation (relevance) between each X variable and Y after standardization, without explicitly modeling and separating these orthogonal variations.
* **Predictive Model:** A full O-PLS model is ultimately a predictive model that can be used for regression (predicting Y). This indicator, however, focuses solely on **identifying the relevance/correlation of inputs to Y**, rather than building a predictive model for Y itself. It's more of an analytical tool for feature importance than a direct prediction engine.
* **Computational Intensity:** Full O-PLS involves Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) or Partial Least Squares (PLS) algorithms, which are computationally intensive. The indicator uses simpler statistical measures (mean, standard deviation, and direct correlation calculation over a lookback window) that are feasible within Pine Script's execution limits.
In essence, this Pine Script indicator serves as a practical tool for gaining insights into variable relevance, inspired by the spirit of O-PLS, but adapted for the constraints and common use cases of a TradingView environment.
