Gold Trade Setup Strategy
Title: Profitable Gold Setup Strategy with Adaptive Moving Average & Supertrend
Introduction:
This trading strategy for Gold (XAU/USD) combines the Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) and Supertrend, tailored for high-probability setups during specific trading hours. The AMA identifies the trend, while the Supertrend confirms entry and exit points. The strategy is optimized for swing and intraday traders looking to capitalize on Gold’s price movements with precise trade timing.
Strategy Components:
1. Adaptive Moving Average (AMA):
• Reacts dynamically to market conditions, filtering noise in choppy markets.
• Serves as the primary trend indicator.
2. Supertrend:
• Confirms entry signals with clear buy and sell levels.
• Acts as a trailing stop-loss to protect profits.
Trading Rules:
Trading Hours:
• Only take trades between 8:30 AM and 10:30 PM IST.
• Avoid trading outside these hours to reduce noise and low-volume setups.
Buy Setup:
1. Trend Confirmation: The Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) must be green.
2. Signal Confirmation: The Supertrend should turn green after the AMA is green.
3. Trigger: Take the trade when the high of the trigger candle (the candle that turned Supertrend green) is broken.
Sell Setup (Optional if included):
• Reverse the rules for a short trade: AMA and Supertrend should both indicate bearish conditions (red), and take the trade when the low of the trigger candle is broken.
Stop-Loss and Targets:
• Place the stop-loss at the low of the trigger candle for long trades.
• Set a 1:2 risk-reward ratio or use the Supertrend line as a trailing stop-loss.
Timeframes:
• Recommended timeframes: 1H, 4H, or Daily for swing trading.
• For intraday trading, use 15-minute or 30-minute charts.
Why This Strategy Works:
• Combines trend-following (AMA) with momentum-based entries (Supertrend).
• Focused trading hours filter out low-probability setups.
• Provides precise entry, stop-loss, and target levels for disciplined trading.
Conclusion:
This Gold Setup Strategy is designed for traders seeking a structured approach to trading Gold. Follow the rules strictly, backtest the strategy extensively, and share your results. Let’s master the Gold market together!

Filtered ATR with EMA OverlayFiltered ATR with EMA Overlay is an advanced volatility indicator designed to provide a more accurate representation of market conditions by smoothing the standard Average True Range (ATR). This is achieved by filtering out extreme price movements and abnormal bars that can distort traditional ATR calculations.
The indicator applies an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to the filtered ATR, creating a dual-layered system that highlights periods of increased or decreased volatility.
Key Features:
Filtered ATR: Filters out extreme bars, reducing noise and making the ATR line more reliable.
EMA Overlay: An EMA (default period of 10) is applied to the filtered ATR, allowing traders to track average volatility trends.
Volatility Signals:
Filtered ATR > EMA(10): Indicates higher-than-average volatility. This often correlates with trend breakouts or strong price movements.
Filtered ATR < EMA(10): Suggests reduced volatility, signaling potential consolidation or sideways price action.
Parameters:
atrLength (Default: 5):
The number of bars used to calculate the ATR. A shorter period (e.g., 3-5) responds faster to price changes, while a longer period (e.g., 10-14) provides smoother results.
multiplier (Default: 1.8):
Controls the sensitivity of the filter. A lower multiplier (e.g., 1.5) filters out more bars, resulting in smoother ATR. Higher values (e.g., 2.0) allow more bars to pass through, retaining more price volatility.
maxIterations (Default: 20):
The maximum number of bars processed to detect abnormal values. Increasing this may improve accuracy at the cost of performance.
ema10Period (Default: 10):
The period for the Exponential Moving Average applied to the filtered ATR. Shorter periods provide faster signals, while longer periods give smoother, lagging signals.
Trading Strategies:
1. Breakout Strategy:
When filtered ATR crosses above EMA(10):
Enter long positions when price breaks above a key resistance level.
Higher volatility suggests strong price action and momentum.
When filtered ATR drops below EMA(10):
Exit positions or tighten stop-loss orders as volatility decreases.
Lower volatility may indicate consolidation or trend exhaustion.
2. Trend Following Strategy:
Use the filtered ATR line to track overall volatility.
If filtered ATR consistently stays above EMA: Hold positions or add to trades.
If filtered ATR remains below EMA: Reduce position size or stay out of trades.
3. Mean Reversion Strategy:
When filtered ATR spikes significantly above EMA, it may indicate market overreaction.
Look for price to revert to the mean once ATR returns below the EMA.
4. Stop-Loss Adjustment:
As volatility increases (ATR above EMA), widen stop-loss levels to avoid being stopped out by random fluctuations.
In low volatility (ATR below EMA), tighten stop-losses to minimize losses during low activity periods.
Benefits:
Reduced Noise: By filtering abnormal bars, the indicator provides cleaner signals.
Better Trend Detection: EMA smoothing highlights volatility trends.
Adaptable: The indicator can be customized for scalping, day trading, or swing trading.
Intuitive Visualization: Traders can visually see volatility shifts and adjust strategies in real-time.
Best Practices:
Timeframes: Works effectively on all timeframes, but higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) yield more reliable signals.
Markets: Suitable for forex, crypto, stocks, and commodities.
Combining Indicators: Use in combination with RSI, Moving Averages, Bollinger Bands, or price action analysis for stronger signals.
How It Works (Under the Hood):
The script calculates the Daily Range (High - Low) for each bar.
The largest and smallest bars are filtered out if their difference exceeds the multiplier (default 1.8).
The remaining bars are averaged to generate the filtered ATR.
An EMA(10) is then applied to the filtered ATR for smoother visualization.
TASC 2025.01 Linear Predictive Filters█ OVERVIEW
This script implements a suite of tools for identifying and utilizing dominant cycles in time series data, as introduced by John Ehlers in the "Linear Predictive Filters And Instantaneous Frequency" article featured in the January 2025 edition of TASC's Traders' Tips . Dominant cycle information can help traders adapt their indicators and strategies to changing market conditions.
█ CONCEPTS
Conventional technical indicators and strategies often rely on static, unchanging parameters, which may fail to account for the dynamic nature of market data. In his article, John Ehlers applies digital signal processing principles to address this issue, introducing linear predictive filters to identify cyclic information for adapting indicators and strategies to evolving market conditions.
This approach treats market data as a complex series in the time domain. Analyzing the series in the frequency domain reveals information about its cyclic components. To reduce the impact of frequencies outside a range of interest and focus on a specific range of cycles, Ehlers applies second-order highpass and lowpass filters to the price data, which attenuate or remove wavelengths outside the desired range. This band-limited analysis isolates specific parts of the frequency spectrum for various trading styles, e.g., longer wavelengths for position trading or shorter wavelengths for swing trading.
After filtering the series to produce band-limited data, Ehlers applies a linear predictive filter to predict future values a few bars ahead. The filter, calculated based on the techniques proposed by Lloyd Griffiths, adaptively minimizes the error between the latest data point and prediction, successively adjusting its coefficients to align with the band-limited series. The filter's coefficients can then be applied to generate an adaptive estimate of the band-limited data's structure in the frequency domain and identify the dominant cycle.
█ USAGE
This script implements the following tools presented in the article:
Griffiths Predictor
This tool calculates a linear predictive filter to forecast future data points in band-limited price data. The crosses between the prediction and signal lines can provide potential trade signals.
Griffiths Spectrum
This tool calculates a partial frequency spectrum of the band-limited price data derived from the linear predictive filter's coefficients, displaying a color-coded representation of the frequency information in the pane. This mode's display represents the data as a periodogram . The bottom of each plotted bar corresponds to a specific analyzed period (inverse of frequency), and the bar's color represents the presence of that periodic cycle in the time series relative to the one with the highest presence (i.e., the dominant cycle). Warmer, brighter colors indicate a higher presence of the cycle in the series, whereas darker colors indicate a lower presence.
Griffiths Dominant Cycle
This tool compares the cyclic components within the partial spectrum and identifies the frequency with the highest power, i.e., the dominant cycle . Traders can use this dominant cycle information to tune other indicators and strategies, which may help promote better alignment with dynamic market conditions.
Notes on parameters
Bandpass boundaries:
In the article, Ehlers recommends an upper bound of 125 bars or higher to capture longer-term cycles for position trading. He recommends an upper bound of 40 bars and a lower bound of 18 bars for swing trading. If traders use smaller lower bounds, Ehlers advises a minimum of eight bars to minimize the potential effects of aliasing.
Data length:
The Griffiths predictor can use a relatively small data length, as autocorrelation diminishes rapidly with lag. However, for optimal spectrum and dominant cycle calculations, the length must match or exceed the upper bound of the bandpass filter. Ehlers recommends avoiding excessively long lengths to maintain responsiveness to shorter-term cycles.

Users can toggle the visibility of empty cells (hours with no high/low occurrences) and adjust the table's design to suit their preferences.
Supports both 12-hour (AM/PM) and 24-hour formats.
Weekly H/L DOTW Analysis:
The indicator tracks the highest and lowest prices for each day of the week during the user-specified date range.
Highs and lows are identified for the entire week, and the specific days when they occur are recorded.
Counts for each day are aggregated and displayed in a table, with a "Totals" column summarizing the overall occurrences.
The analysis resets weekly, ensuring accurate tracking of high/low days.
Code Breakdown:
Data Aggregation:
The script uses arrays to store counts of high/low occurrences for both hourly and weekly intervals.
Daily data is fetched using the request.security() function, ensuring consistent results regardless of the chart's timeframe.
Weekly Reset Mechanism:
Weekly high/low values are reset at the start of a new week (Monday) to ensure accurate weekly tracking.
A processing flag ensures that weekly data is counted only once at the end of the week (Sunday).
Table Visualization:
Tables are created using the table.new() function, with customizable styles and positions.
Header rows, data rows, and totals are dynamically populated based on the aggregated data.
User Inputs:
Customization options include text colors, background colors, table positioning, label formatting, and date ranges.
Code Explanation
The script is structured into two main sections:
Hourly H/L Analysis:
This section captures and aggregates high/low occurrences for each hour of the day.
The logic is session-aware, allowing users to define custom session times (e.g., 22-hour futures sessions).
Data is displayed in a clean table format with hourly labels.
Weekly H/L DOTW Analysis:
This section tracks weekly highs and lows by day of the week.
Highs and lows are identified for each week, and counts are updated only once per week to prevent duplication.
A user-friendly table displays the counts for each day of the week, along with totals.
Both sections are completely independent of each other to avoid interference. This ensures that enabling or disabling one section does not impact the functionality of the other.

Trend Confirmation (EMA Filter):
To ensure that reversal signals align with the broader market trend, the indicator incorporates an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) filter.
Bullish signals are only triggered when the price is above the EMA, while bearish signals are only triggered when the price is below the EMA.
Volume Spike Filter:
The indicator checks for significant increases in trading volume to confirm that the reversal is supported by strong market activity.
Volume spikes are calculated as trading volume exceeding a multiple of the 20-bar average volume (default: 1.5x).
Confirmation Period:
Users can define a confirmation window within which reversal signals must be validated.
This reduces false positives and ensures only strong reversals are considered.
Non-Repainting Mode:
Offers a non-repainting option, where signals are based on confirmed conditions from previous bars, ensuring reliability for backtesting.
Visual and Alert Features:
Clear visual markers on the chart indicate bullish (green triangle) and bearish (red triangle) reversal points.
Alert notifications can be enabled for both bullish and bearish reversals, keeping traders informed in real-time.
Inputs
Candle Lookback: Number of candles to evaluate for reversal conditions.
Confirm Within: Number of candles within which a reversal must be validated.
Non-Repainting Mode: Option to enable or disable repainting for signals.
EMA Length: The length of the Exponential Moving Average used for trend confirmation.
Volume Spike Multiplier: Multiplier for identifying significant increases in trading volume.
How It Works
Reversal Detection:
Bullish signals are triggered when:
Price consistently tests recent lows (lookback period).
Price closes above the EMA.
A significant volume spike occurs.
Bearish signals are triggered under opposite conditions (price testing highs, closing below EMA, and volume spike).
Signal Filtering:
Incorporates EMA and volume-based filters to eliminate false positives and focus on high-confidence reversal signals.
Alert Notifications:
Alerts notify users of bullish or bearish reversal opportunities as soon as they are detected.
Use Cases
Scalping and Day Trading:
Ideal for identifying reversals on lower timeframes (e.g., 1-minute or 5-minute charts).
Swing Trading:
Works effectively on higher timeframes (e.g., 1-hour or daily charts) for capturing significant
trend reversals.
Volatile Markets:
Particularly useful in high-volatility markets like cryptocurrencies or forex.
Customization Tips
Adjust the lookback period to fine-tune the sensitivity of the reversal detection.
Increase the volume spike multiplier for markets with irregular trading volumes to focus on significant moves.
Experiment with the EMA length to align signals with your trading strategy's preferred trend duration.
Conclusion
The Enhanced Reversal Detector combines advanced price action analysis, trend confirmation, and market participation filters to deliver high-accuracy reversal signals. With its customizable settings and robust filtering mechanisms, this indicator is an invaluable tool for identifying profitable trading opportunities while minimizing noise and false signals.
100s Level LinesPurpose of the Script
- Visualize Key Levels: The script highlights round-number levels (e.g., 100, 200, 300) automatically, making it easy to identify areas where price action might react.
- Improve Decision-Making: These levels can serve as benchmarks for entry, exit, stop-loss, or take-profit placement.
- Simplicity: Instead of manually drawing levels, the script dynamically updates to match the chart's price range.
Features of the Script
- Dynamic Level Calculation: The script calculates 100s levels based on the asset's current price range and plots lines above and below the visible chart area.
- Customizable Settings: Adjust line color, style (solid, dashed, or dotted), and width to suit your charting preferences.
- Auto-Scaling: Automatically adjusts to the chart's visible price range, ensuring plotted levels are always relevant.
- Labeling: Each line can optionally display its exact value (e.g., "1400," "1500") for easy reference.
- Performance Optimization: Efficient calculations ensure the script doesn’t slow down TradingView, even on volatile instruments like the US100.
How the Script Works
- The script detects the highest and lowest visible prices on the chart to define the range.
- Starting from the lowest 100-point increment within the visible range, the script calculates all 100-point levels up to the highest visible price.
- It plots horizontal lines across the chart for each calculated level.
- Optionally, labels can be added to display the value of each level.
How to Use the Script
- Copy the script code into the Pine Script editor in TradingView and apply it to your chart.
- Open the script settings to adjust line color, style, width, and label visibility.
- Use the plotted 100s levels as psychological support and resistance zones for trade entries, exits, and stop-loss or take-profit placement.
Example Use Cases
- Identify potential reversal points as the price approaches a 100s level in intraday trading.
- Confirm support or resistance zones on higher timeframes for swing trading setups.
- Use the levels to trail stop-losses during trending markets and lock in profits incrementally.
Customizable Options
- Line Color: Change the color of the horizontal lines.
- Line Style: Choose solid, dashed, or dotted lines.
- Line Width: Adjust the thickness of the lines for better visibility.
- Show Labels: Toggle price values on or off for each level.
Advantages
- Saves Time: Automatically plots levels, eliminating manual effort.
- Adaptable: Works on all timeframes and assets.
- Psychological Relevance: Highlights levels that align with trader psychology and market behavior.

HTF CANDLE VISION
Displays up to 3 series of HTF Candles
Shows candlesticks from a higher time frame (e.g., daily, 4-hour, weekly) on a lower time frame chart (e.g., 1-hour, 15-minute). This allows traders to simultaneously observe both short-term and long-term market dynamics.
Customizable Time Frames: Users can select any higher time frame to overlay on the current chart. Common time frames include daily, weekly, and monthly candles, but other custom time frames can also be used.
Color Coding: The HTF candles are color-coded for easy differentiation from the lower time frame candles. Users can customize colors to suit their preferences.
Open, High, Low, Close (OHLC) Representation: The indicator displays the full candlestick pattern for the chosen HTF, including the open, high, low, and close values. This helps traders easily identify key price levels and trends.
Settings :

Incorporating a Higher Time Frame (HTF) candle into your Lower Time Frame (LTF) chart can be immensely beneficial for traders looking to enhance their analysis and decision-making process.
Use Cases for HTF Candles on LTF Charts:
Trend Confirmation:
Use Case: A trader might be looking at a 15-minute chart (LTF) but wants to confirm if the short-term trends align with the daily trend (HTF). Plotting a daily candle on the 15-minute chart helps visualize whether the short-term movements are part of a broader, longer-term trend.
Support and Resistance Identification:
Use Case: By plotting a weekly candle on a daily chart, traders can quickly identify levels that have acted as significant support or resistance in the past on the higher time frame, which might not be as visible or influential on the daily chart alone.
Entry and Exit Points Enhancement:
Use Case: When preparing to enter a trade based on a 1-hour chart, overlaying a 4-hour candle can provide insights into potential reversal points or continuation patterns that are more significant on the higher time frame, thus refining entry and exit strategies.
Volatility and Breakout Analysis:
Use Case: Seeing how a single HTF candle (like a monthly candle on a weekly chart) closes can give traders an idea of the market's volatility or the strength behind breakouts. A long wick on the HTF candle might suggest a rejected breakout or a potential reversal.
Risk Management:
Use Case: Using an HTF candle can help set more informed stop-loss levels. For instance, if a trader uses a 4-hour candle on a 1-hour chart, they might place their stop-loss just beyond the low of the HTF candle, assuming this represents a significant level of support or resistance.
Contextual Trading Decisions:
Use Case: For scalpers or day traders, understanding where the current price action sits within the context of a higher timeframe can lead to better decision-making. For instance, trading within an HTF consolidation range might suggest less aggressive moves, while being near the top or bottom of such a range might indicate potential for larger movements.
Market Sentiment Analysis:
Use Case: The color (red for bearish, green for bullish) and size of the HTF candle can give a quick visual cue of the market sentiment over that period, helping traders assess whether they are going with or against the broader market flow.
Swing Trading:
Use Case: Swing traders might plot a weekly candle on a daily chart to align their trades with the direction of the weekly trend, ensuring they're not fighting the broader market momentum.
Educational and Visual Reference:
Use Case: For educational purposes, having an HTF candle overlay can serve as a visual reminder for students or new traders about how price movements on different time frames can influence each other, aiding in teaching concepts like "the trend is your friend."
Wang use cases :
The way it is intended to be used is as follow
If you trade the 1 min chart and have a set of 5 min HTF candles plotted on your charts it could be used as follow :
As long as the 5 min keep providing close below the last 5 min candle if you're short you're safe ... if the 5 min candle stop closing below the last ones and start giving up-close you should consider closing your trade
Another use of HTF Candle is to find fractals responsible (up or down internal mouv before the breakout that creates a new zone). This fractal acts as supply and demand zone responsible for maintening the trend or for a reversal.
See examples below :
These fractals are interesting zones because they often cause the price to react, so following a flip in the fractal, you can take a short in bearish zones and a long in bullish zones. Fractals are easier to detect thanks to the HTF candles function, and allow you to enter positions with greater confidence. They can be used in the same way as the 70%, 50% and 30% interest zones, or they can be used simultaneously.
Use with zones :
▫️ VERTICAL BARS VISION ▫️
The vertical bars provide a view of market fractality: on a low time frame chart, they show the size of a candle in a higher time frame, and thus give a better understanding of the price fractality essential to the strategy we use.
Example :
For your information, when you modify data in the vertical bars or HTF candles parameters, the two are synchronized automatically.
The Vertical HTF Candle Closures Indicator is a simple yet effective tool that helps traders visually track the closing times of higher time frame (HTF) candles (such as 4H, 1H, 15M) on a lower time frame chart (e.g., 1-minute).
This feature plots vertical lines on the chart at the exact closure time of each selected HTF, allowing traders to quickly recognize key moments when the HTF candles close, or better yet when we trade above / below the last one and reverse ''sweepy sweepy'' .
Its more like a vertical and more micro visualisation than the HTF Candles.
Wang usage :
its a great tool to be able to reverse engineer what's in a HTFcandle precisely its a good combination with HTF candle projections to train the eyes of the traders about Whats is inside a candle that formed on the higher time frame
Limitation & know issues :
The chart may become cluttered with too many lines if multiple time frames are selected. Adjusting the line style or disabling certain time frames can help reduce visual noise.
On low time frame (<30s), some bar may notshow exactly on time (e.g : in 10sec timeframe, the 15min bar can be displayed at 01:15:10 instead of 01:15:00).
Because of the data provider and the interpreter of Trading View, if there is not data for a candle, Trading view just "skip" the candle. Sometime, those skip are on the candle that goes to 15min, 1 hour or 4 hour. As this is a Trading View issue. There is pretty much nothing we can do.
Some users may experience vertical bars at 1am, 5am, 9am ... instead of 0am, 4am, 8am ... That is because of the difference between the Timezone set on the chart and the timezone of the market they trade. Vertical bar will always refer to the symbol displayed

FVG - NibzDescription: Fair Value Gap (FVG) Indicator - Nibz
This Pine Script identifies and visualizes Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on your TradingView chart. FVGs are price inefficiencies left behind when the market moves too quickly, skipping price levels that might not be tested. These gaps often act as magnets, attracting price for potential reversals or continuations.
The script works by detecting upward (bullish) and downward (bearish) price imbalances based on specific candlestick criteria and then marks these zones on your chart using customizable shaded boxes. This tool is essential for traders looking to identify key areas of market inefficiency that could signify support/resistance levels, potential reversal zones, or areas to monitor for market rebalancing.
How It Works
1. Bullish FVG Detection
The script identifies an upward imbalance when:
The low of the candlestick two bars back is less than or equal to the open of the previous bar.
The high of the current candlestick is greater than or equal to the close of the previous bar.
When this condition is met and the size of the imbalance is greater than zero, a green box is drawn from the low of the second candlestick back to the high of the current candlestick.
2. Bearish FVG Detection
The script identifies a downward imbalance when:
The high of the candlestick two bars back is greater than or equal to the open of the previous bar.
The low of the current candlestick is less than or equal to the close of the previous bar.
When this condition is met and the size of the imbalance is greater than zero, a red box is drawn from the low of the current candlestick to the high of the second candlestick back.
Customization Options
This script is highly customizable, allowing you to tailor the appearance of the FVG boxes to suit your trading style and chart aesthetics:
Bullish FVG:
Fill color and transparency.
Border color and transparency.
Bearish FVG:
Fill color and transparency.
Border color and transparency.
The settings are user-friendly, with intuitive sliders for transparency and color pickers for customization.
How to Use the Indicator
Adding the Script:
Add the indicator to your chart, and it will automatically mark bullish (green) and bearish (red) FVGs.
Interpreting FVGs:
Bullish FVGs (green zones): These often act as support or areas of potential price rebalancing on retracement.
Bearish FVGs (red zones): These often act as resistance or areas of interest for short entries.
Trade Ideas:
Use FVG zones to confirm other trade signals or strategies.
Watch for price interaction with these zones to time entries and exits.
Key Features

Customizable visual representation to match your chart preferences.
Enhances trading precision by identifying price inefficiencies.
Suitable for scalping, day trading, or swing trading strategies.
This script provides a powerful tool to highlight important price levels and inefficiencies in the market, enabling traders to make informed decisions. Whether you're using it as a standalone indicator or combining it with other tools, the 'FVG - Nibz' indicator is a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit!
TechniTrend: Volatility and MACD Trend Highlighter🟦 Overview
The "Candle Volatility with Trend Prediction" indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify market volatility based on candle movement relative to average volume while also incorporating trend predictions using the MACD. This indicator is ideal for traders who want to detect volatile market conditions and anticipate potential price movements, leveraging both price changes and volume dynamics.
It not only highlights candles with significant price movements but also integrates a trend analysis based on the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), allowing traders to gauge whether the market momentum aligns with or diverges from the detected volatility.
🟦 Key Features
🔸Volatility Detection: Identifies candles that exceed normal price fluctuations based on average volume and recent price volatility.
🔸Trend Prediction: Uses the MACD indicator to overlay trend analysis, signaling potential market direction shifts.
🔸Volume-Based Analysis: Integrates customizable moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA, etc.) of volume, providing a clear visualization of volume trends.
🔸Alert System: Automatically notifies traders of high-volatility situations, aiding in timely decision-making.
🔸Customizability: Includes multiple settings to tailor the indicator to different market conditions and timeframes.
🟦 How It Works
The indicator operates by evaluating the price volatility in relation to average volume and identifying when a candle's volatility surpasses a threshold defined by the user. The key calculations include:
🔸Average Volume Calculation: The user selects the type of moving average (SMA, EMA, etc.) to calculate the average volume over a set period.
🔸Volatility Measurement: The indicator measures the body change (difference between open and close) and the high-low range of each candle. It then calculates recent price volatility using a standard deviation over a user-defined length.
🔸Weighted Index: A unique index is created by dividing price change by average volume and recent volatility.
🔸Highlighting Volatility: If the weighted index exceeds a customizable threshold, the candle is highlighted, indicating potential trading opportunities.
🔸Trend Analysis with MACD: The MACD line and signal line are plotted and adjusted with a user-defined multiplier to visualize trends alongside the volatility signals.
🟦 Recommended Settings
🔸Volume MA Length: A default of 14 periods for the average volume calculation is recommended. Adjust to higher periods for long-term trends and shorter periods for quick trades.
🔸Volatility Threshold Multiplier: Set at 1.2 by default to capture moderately significant movements. Increase for fewer but stronger signals or decrease for more frequent signals.
🔸MACD Settings: Default MACD parameters (12, 26, 9) are suggested. Tweak based on your trading strategy and asset volatility.
🔸MACD Multiplier: Adjust based on how the MACD should visually compare to the average volume. A multiplier of 1 works well for most cases.
🟦 How to Use
🔸Volatile Market Detection:
Look for highlighted candles that suggest a deviation from typical price behavior. These candles often signify an entry point for short-term trades.
🔸Trend Confirmation:
Use the MACD trend analysis to verify if the highlighted volatile candles align with a bullish or bearish trend.
For example, a bullish MACD crossover combined with a highlighted candle suggests a potential uptrend, while a bearish crossover with volatility signals may indicate a downtrend.
🔸Volume-Driven Strategy:
Observe how volume changes impact candle volatility. When volume rises significantly and candles are highlighted, it can suggest strong market moves influenced by big players.
🟦 Best Use Cases
🔸Trend Reversals: Detect potential trend reversals early by spotting divergences between price and MACD within volatile conditions.
🔸Breakout Strategies: Use the indicator to confirm price breakouts with significant volume changes.
🔸Scalping or Day Trading: Customize the indicator for shorter timeframes to capture rapid market movements based on volatility spikes.
🔸Swing Trading: Combine volatility and trend insights to optimize entry and exit points over longer periods.
🟦 Customization Options
🔸Volume-Based Inputs: Choose from SMA, EMA, WMA, and more to define how average volume is calculated.
🔸Threshold Adjustments: Modify the volatility threshold multiplier to increase or decrease sensitivity based on your trading style.
🔸MACD Tuning: Adjust MACD settings and the multiplier for trend visualization tailored to different asset classes and market conditions.
🟦 Indicator Alerts
🔸High Volatility Alerts: Automatically triggered when candles exceed user-defined volatility levels.
🔸Bullish/Bearish Trend Alerts: Alerts are activated when highlighted volatile candles align with bullish or bearish MACD crossovers, making it easier to spot opportunities without constantly monitoring the chart.
🟦 Examples of Use
To better understand how this indicator works, consider the following scenarios:
🔸Example 1: In a strong uptrend, observe how volume surges and volatility highlight candles right before price consolidations, indicating optimal exit points.
🔸Example 2: During a downtrend, see how the MACD aligns with volume-driven volatility, signaling potential short-selling opportunities.

## Technical Analysis Methodology
This scanner implements a sophisticated multi-timeframe analysis approach combining three key technical elements:
### 1. Dual EMA System (Primary Trend Detection)
- **Long-term EMA (820 periods)**: Acts as the primary trend identifier
- Chosen specifically for tech stocks' longer-term price waves
- Helps filter out minor market noise while capturing major trend changes
- 820 periods approximately represents 3.2 years of trading days
- **Medium-term EMA (320 periods)**: Serves as trend confirmation
- Approximately 1.25 years of trading data
- Provides earlier entry signals while maintaining trend reliability
- Helps identify potential trend reversals before the major trend shift
### 2. Volume Analysis Component
The script employs a dynamic volume analysis system:
- Calculates 20-period moving average of volume as baseline
- Requires 1.5x surge above baseline for signal confirmation
- Volume surge requirement helps filter out weak moves and potential false breakouts
- Different from standard volume indicators as it uses adaptive thresholds
### 3. RSI Momentum Filter
Implements a specialized RSI configuration:
- 14-period RSI with dynamic overbought/oversold levels
- Oversold threshold: 30 (customizable)
- Overbought threshold: 70 (customizable)
- Used as a confirmation tool rather than primary signal generator
## Signal Generation Logic
### Buy Signal Requirements

Holt-Winters Forecast BandsDescription:
The Holt-Winters Adaptive Bands indicator combines seasonal trend forecasting with adaptive volatility bands. It uses the Holt-Winters triple exponential smoothing model to project future price trends, while Nadaraya-Watson smoothed bands highlight dynamic support and resistance zones.
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking to predict future price movements and visualize potential market turning points. By focusing on broader seasonal and trend data, it provides insight into both short- and long-term market directions. It’s particularly effective for swing trading and medium-to-long-term trend analysis on timeframes like daily and 4-hour charts, although it can be adjusted for other timeframes.
Key Features:
Holt-Winters Forecast Line: The core of this indicator is the Holt-Winters model, which uses three components — level, trend, and seasonality — to project future prices. This model is widely used for time-series forecasting, and in this script, it provides a dynamic forecast line that predicts where price might move based on historical patterns.
Adaptive Volatility Bands: The shaded areas around the forecast line are based on Nadaraya-Watson smoothing of historical price data. These bands provide a visual representation of potential support and resistance levels, adapting to recent volatility in the market. The bands' fill colors (red for upper and green for lower) allow traders to identify potential reversal zones without cluttering the chart.
Dynamic Confidence Levels: The indicator adapts its forecast based on market volatility, using inputs such as average true range (ATR) and price deviations. This means that in high-volatility conditions, the bands may widen to account for increased price movements, helping traders gauge the current market environment.
How to Use:
Forecasting: Use the forecast line to gain insight into potential future price direction. This line provides a directional bias, helping traders anticipate whether the price may continue along a trend or reverse.
Support and Resistance Zones: The shaded bands act as dynamic support and resistance zones. When price enters the upper (red) band, it may be in an overbought area, while the lower (green) band may indicate oversold conditions. These bands adjust with volatility, so they reflect the current market conditions rather than fixed levels.
Timeframe Recommendations:
This indicator performs best on daily and 4-hour charts due to its reliance on trend and seasonality. It can be used on lower timeframes, but accuracy may vary due to increased price noise.
For traders looking to capture swing trades, the daily and 4-hour timeframes provide a balance of trend stability and signal reliability.
Adjustable Settings:
Alpha, Beta, and Gamma: These settings control the level, trend, and seasonality components of the forecast. Alpha is generally the most sensitive setting for adjusting responsiveness to recent price movements, while Beta and Gamma help fine-tune the trend and seasonal adjustments.
Band Smoothing and Deviation: These settings control the lookback period and width of the volatility bands, allowing users to customize how closely the bands follow price action.
Parameters:
Prediction Length: Sets the length of the forecast, determining how far into the future the prediction line extends.
Season Length: Defines the seasonality cycle. A setting of 14 is typical for bi-weekly cycles, but this can be adjusted based on observed market cycles.
Alpha, Beta, Gamma: These parameters adjust the Holt-Winters model's sensitivity to recent prices, trends, and seasonal patterns.

Example Trading Strategy Using This Indicator
To effectively use this indicator as part of your trading strategy, follow these detailed steps:
Setup:
Timeframe : Select a timeframe that aligns with your trading style (e.g., 15-minute for intraday, 1-hour for swing trading, or daily for longer-term positions).
Indicator Settings : Customize the Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD parameters to suit your trading approach. Adjust overbought/oversold levels to match your risk tolerance.
Strategy:
1. Strong Buy Entry Criteria :
Wait for a strong buy signal (green label) when the RSI is at or below the oversold level (e.g., ≤ 35), indicating a deeply oversold market. Confirm that the MACD shows a decreasing trend (bearish momentum weakening) to validate a potential reversal. Ensure the current candle is green (close > open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : On a 1-hour chart, if the RSI drops below 35, MACD shows three consecutive bars of decreasing negative momentum, and a green candle forms, enter a buy position. This setup signals a robust entry with strong momentum backing it.
2. Weak Buy Entry Criteria :
Monitor for weak buy signals (blue label) when RSI is above the oversold level but still below the neutral (e.g., between 36 and 50). This indicates a market recovering from an oversold state but not fully reversing yet. These signals can be used for early entries with additional confirmations, such as support levels or higher timeframe trends.
Example Use : On the same 1-hour chart, if RSI is at 45, the MACD shows momentum stabilizing (not necessarily negative), and a green candle appears, consider a partial or cautious entry. Use this as an early warning for a potential bullish move, especially when higher timeframe indicators align.
3. Strong Sell Entry Criteria :
Look for a strong sell signal (red label) when RSI is at or above the overbought level (e.g., ≥ 65), signaling a strong overbought condition. The MACD should show three consecutive bars of increasing positive momentum to indicate that the bullish trend is weakening. Ensure the current candle is red (close < open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : If RSI reaches 70, MACD shows increasing momentum that starts to level off, and a red candle forms on a 1-hour chart, initiate a short position with a stop loss set above recent resistance. This is a high-confidence signal for potential price reversal or pullback.
4. Weak Sell Entry Criteria :
Use weak sell signals (orange label) when RSI is between the neutral and overbought levels (e.g., between 50 and 64). These can indicate potential short opportunities that might not yet be fully mature but are worth monitoring. Look for other confirmations like resistance levels or trendline touches to strengthen the signal.
Example Use : If RSI reads 60 on a 1-hour chart, and the MACD shows slight positive momentum with signs of slowing down, place a cautious sell position or scale out of existing long positions. This setup allows you to prepare for a possible downtrend.
Trade Management:
Stop Loss : For buy trades, place stop losses below recent swing lows. For sell trades, set stops above recent swing highs to manage risk effectively.
Take Profit : Target nearby resistance or support levels, apply risk-to-reward ratios (e.g., 1:2), or use trailing stops to lock in profits as price moves in your favor.
Confirmation : Align these signals with broader trends on higher timeframes. For example, if you receive a weak buy signal on a 15-minute chart, check the 1-hour or daily chart to ensure the overall trend is not bearish.
Real-World Example: Imagine trading on a 15-minute chart :
For a buy:
A strong buy signal (green) appears when the RSI dips to 32, MACD shows declining bearish momentum, and a green candle forms. Enter a buy position with a stop loss below the most recent support level.
Alternatively, a weak buy signal (blue) appears when RSI is at 47. Use this as a signal to start monitoring the market closely or enter a smaller position if other indicators (like support and volume analysis) align.
For a sell:
A strong sell signal (red) with RSI at 72 and a red candle signals to short with conviction. Place your stop loss just above the last peak.
A weak sell signal (orange) with RSI at 62 might prompt caution but can still be acted on if confirmed by declining volume or touching a resistance level.
These strategies show how to blend both strong and weak signals into your trading for more nuanced decision-making.
Technical Analysis of the Code
1. Stochastic RSI Calculation:
The script calculates the Stochastic RSI (stochRsiK) using the RSI as input and smooths it with a moving average (stochRsiD).
Code Explanation : ta.stoch(rsi, rsi, rsi, stochLength) computes the Stochastic RSI, and ta.sma(stochRsiK, stochSmoothing) applies smoothing.
2. RSI Calculation :
The RSI is computed over a user-defined period and checks for overbought or oversold conditions.
Code Explanation : rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsiLength) calculates RSI values.
3. MACD Trend Filter :
MACD is calculated with fast, slow, and signal lengths, identifying trends via three consecutive bars moving in the same direction.
Code Explanation : = ta.macd(close, macdLengthFast, macdLengthSlow, macdSignalLength) sets MACD values. Conditions like macdLine < macdLine confirm trends.
4. Buy and Sell Conditions :
The script checks Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD values to set buy/sell flags. Candle color filters further confirm valid entries.
Code Explanation : buyConditionMet and sellConditionMet logically check all conditions and toggles (enableStochCondition, enableRSICondition, etc.).
5. Signal Flags and Confirmation :
Flags track when conditions are met and ensure signals only appear on appropriate candle colors.
Code Explanation : Conditional blocks (if statements) update buyFlag and sellFlag.
6. Labels and Alerts :
The indicator plots "BUY" or "SELL" labels with the RSI value when signals trigger and sets alerts through alertcondition().
Code Explanation : label.new() displays the signal, color-coded for strength based on RSI.
NOTE : All strategies can be enabled or disabled in the settings, allowing traders to customize the indicator to their preferences and trading styles.
Forex Relative Strength MatrixTraders often feel uncertain about which Forex pair to open a position with. This indicator is designed to help in that regard.
This indicator was created as described in the book Swing Trading with Heiken Ashi and Stochastics. In the original, the author suggests using it for swing trading. The author recommends applying it to a monthly chart with an 8-period moving average to analyze the context.
The logic of the indicator is to measure the relative strength of each currency by checking if the price of each Forex pair is above or below a chosen moving average. If the price is above the moving average, the base currency is awarded 1 point, indicating strength. If below, it scores 0, indicating weakness. By accumulating points across multiple pairs, the indicator ranks currencies from strongest to weakest, helping traders identify potential pairs for trading.
Trend Identification:
After identifying relative strength, the trader should observe the general trend using a 100-period SMA on 4-hour charts. If the price is above the SMA, the trend is bullish; if below, it is bearish.
Buy Logic:
A buy is triggered when the base currency is strong (price is above the moving average) and the quote currency is weak (price is below the moving average). After identifying the trend direction, the entry is confirmed by a color change in Heiken Ashi candles (from red to green in an uptrend) and a stochastic crossover in the trend’s direction.
Sell Logic:
A sell is triggered when the base currency is weak (price is below the moving average) and the quote currency is strong (price is above the moving average). The sell entry is confirmed by a color change in Heiken Ashi candles (from green to red in a downtrend) and a stochastic crossover aligned with the trend.
Entry Chart:
The entry chart used is the 4-hour chart. The trader should look for entry signals following a pullback in the trend direction, using Heiken Ashi candles. Entry is made when the Heiken Ashi candles change color (from red to green in an uptrend) and there is a smooth crossover of the stochastic indicator in the trend’s direction.
It would also be possible to adapt the indicator for day trading strategies with targets of 1 to 2 days. Here is a recommended setup:
Relative Strength Identification (1-Hour Chart):
Instead of monthly charts, use a 1-hour chart to identify currency strength with a 20-period moving average.
The 20-period moving average on the 1-hour chart captures a balanced view of short- to medium-term direction, covering nearly a day’s worth of trading but with enough sensitivity for day trading.
General Trend (5-Minute Chart with 100 SMA):
On the 5-minute chart, observe the 100-period SMA to identify the general trend direction throughout the day.
Price above the 100 SMA indicates an uptrend, and below indicates a downtrend, confirming the movement in shorter timeframes.
Entry Chart and Signals (5-Minute Chart):
Use the 15-minute chart to look for entry opportunities, focusing on pullbacks in the main trend direction.
Entry Signals: Enter the position when Heiken Ashi candles change color in the trend direction (from red to green in an uptrend) and the stochastic indicator makes a smooth crossover in the trend’s direction.
J Lines EMA + VWAPThe EMA + VWAP indicator combines the power of Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) with the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) to help traders spot trends, identify potential entries/exits, and understand market momentum with ease. This dual-purpose tool is designed to give both beginner and experienced traders a clear view of price direction and volume influence, whether for day trading or swing trading.
Key Features:
Dynamic EMA Lines:
Six customizable moving averages (EMA by default) adapt to your selected timeframe. EMAs help track trend direction and strength, with various colors and opacity settings that visually separate them for clarity.
VWAP Tracking: A standalone VWAP line (blue) shows the average trading price adjusted for volume, making it ideal for pinpointing significant price levels where institutional interest often lies.
EMA Ribbons for Trend Confirmation: Soft-colored ribbons are placed between EMA pairs to make the trend strength visually apparent, with different color fills between lines. This makes it easy to gauge bullish or bearish conditions at a glance.
Flexible MA Options: Besides EMA, you can choose from SMA, WMA, HMA, and RMA, allowing you to adapt the indicator to various trading strategies.
This tool simplifies trend-following and volume-based analysis by giving you insight into both price momentum and market participation levels. EMAs adapt to volatility and changing market conditions, while the VWAP keeps you aware of critical price zones based on trading volume. Together, these help you stay on the right side of the market, avoid false breakouts, and make informed decisions on when to enter or exit trades.
Ideal for beginners due to its visual clarity and flexible enough for seasoned traders, EMA + VWAP is your go-to indicator for a structured approach to market trends.
