Aarika Trade with the Trend (ATT)Hello traders, purpose of creating this indicator is simply trying to analyse the trend of any symbol.
This indicator is a modification-version of three different indicators from different authors, brought together to create a fine-piece of trend-finder.
This is combination of multi MAs to notice price action with different parameters and calculations.
This indicator generate Green/Red/Yellow bars once all the calculations comes to certain point.
This indicator can be used on any script like Indices, Stocks, Future, Currency & Crypto.
How to trade : This indicator is easy to use on any timeframe and on normal candlestick. Bar colour appeared on candle is based on some calculation and when all the condition are matched; so wait for full candle to be formed and once candle close then go for trade.
Rule for Long trade: Let the current candle form completely. If its a Green colour bar then it indicates a bullish momentum whereas Yellow bar may see a reversal of the current trend.
Rule for Short trade: Let the current candle form completely. If its a Red colour bar then it indicates a bearish momentum whereas Yellow bar may see a reversal of the current trend.
This is not a Holy Grail indicator which always gives profit but if you practice this indicator with consistency, your portfolio may give good returns.
Use proper money management before taking any trade. Go for paper trade and observe how this indicator behaves and once satisfied then only take real trade.
Add - on Feature : we have added HAMA in this indicator. Usually if HAMA is forming Green colour candles then it is a strong bullish trend, whereas Red HAMA candles show bearish trend.
Moreover, if our bar colours are Green and price is above HAMA, it usually shows strong Bull trend; and opposite side Red colour bars with price below HAMA may be seen as a strong Bear trend.
Disclaimer: Please make sure you study this indicator on different timeframes because inserted set of data may act differently on different scripts and may vary from timeframe to timeframe.
We advice you to use this indicator for trend-analysis and study purpose only. Author/publisher of this indicator is not responsible for your profit or loss if you use this indicator for trading purpose one way or another.

What are Heiken-Ashi "better" candles?
The "better formula" was proposed in an article/memo by BNP-Paribas (In Warrants & Zertifikate, No. 8, August 2004 (a monthly German magazine published by BNP Paribas, Frankfurt), there is an article by Sebastian Schmidt about further development (smoothing) of Heikin-Ashi chart.)
They proposed to use the following :
(Open+Close)/2+(((Close-Open)/( High-Low ))*ABS((Close-Open)/2))
instead of using :
haClose = (O+H+L+C)/4
According to that document the HA representation using their proposed formula is better than the traditional formula.
What are traditional Heiken-Ashi candles?
The Heikin-Ashi technique averages price data to create a Japanese candlestick chart that filters out market noise.
Heikin-Ashi charts, developed by Munehisa Homma in the 1700s, share some characteristics with standard candlestick charts but differ based on the values used to create each candle. Instead of using the open, high, low, and close like standard candlestick charts, the Heikin-Ashi technique uses a modified formula based on two-period averages. This gives the chart a smoother appearance, making it easier to spots trends and reversals, but also obscures gaps and some price data.

LNL Pullback ArrowsBuying the dip has never been easier! LNL Pullback Arrows are here to pinpoint the best possible entries for the trend following setups. With the Pullback Arrows, trader can pick his own approach and risk level thanks to four different types of arrows. The goal of these arrows is to force the traders to scale in & out of trades which is in my opinion crucial when it comes to trend following strategies. These arrows were designed primarily for the daily & weekly time frame (swing trading).
Four Types of Pullback Arrows:
1. Aggro Arrows - Ideal for aggresive approach during parabolic trends. Sometimes trends are so strong that the price barely revisits the daily 8 EMA. This is where the aggro arrows can perfectly pinpoint the aggresive high risk entries. Ideal for halfsize or 1/4 size of the full position. Aiming for quick 1-2 day moves targeting the recent high/low. These arrows could be also named as scalping arrows for the swing traders. A quick In & Out.
2. HalfSize Arrows - Medium risk approach. First arrows to scale in. HalfSize arrows are the first sign that the pullback might be ending, yet there is still some space left for an even deeper pullback. That is the reason why they are called half-size. Ideally taken with half-sized position. When trading the HalfSize Arrows, It is better to have some "spare ammo in the gun" ready to use.
3. FullSize Arrows - Regular risk approach. These arrows represent a zone where the core of the posititon should be taken. The point of validity for the trend is not that far away, meaning the risk can be kept tight. Ideal for scailing the other halfs or quarters of the full position. Also great for more conservative traders or environments with higher volatility.
4. Rare Arrows - Offer the best risk to reward entries during the trend. Rare Arrows should be the "last kick" of the retracement, therefore stops can be positioned really tight. They either trigger the stop immidiately or they provide another juicy leg up or down in the direction of the trend. However, they really do appear rarely.
Simple EMA Cloud:
A simple cloud based on 21 and 55 exponential moving averages. This default length creates a pullback zone that is wide enough for the conservative traders but also give the opportunities to more aggresive traders. Alternatives such as 8 & 21, or 21 & 34 are forming the zone that is too aggresive and usually too thin. Of course, cloud can be fully adjusted or turned off completely. The only role of the cloud is to gauge the trend.
Tips & Tricks:
1.Importance of the Scailing
- As already stated, scailing is crucial to this since there is no way of knowing the exact level at which the price magically bounce every time. It is hard to tell where and which EMA will be respected. How can we know it will be 21 EMA every time? or 34 EMA or 10 EMA or 100 SMA or 50 DMA ... Single MA does not make a trend. This is the reason why scailing is so important. Scailing can make a difference.
2. Nothing is Perfect
- Same as any other study, nothing works 100% perfectly. Sometimes the setup will go right against you and sometimes the price will fade away sideways and breaks off the structure of the trend. This is not a magic certainty tool. This is just another probability tool.
3. Point of Validity & Other Studies
- Even though the pullback arrows can be a stand-alone strategy. It is important to use other indicators that visualize the actual trend. Whether its EMA Cloud or EMAs or DMI Bars or Keltner Channels, there should be something that validates the trend, something that tells the trend is over. (Pullback Arrows are not showing the actual stops!).
Hope it helps.
VWAP Band TrendThis indicator combines two features: VWAP bands for range trading and trends for trend-following.
The white bands offer support/resistance levels ideal for range trading: short when rejecting off the upper band, long when rejecting off the lower. Take profit either when hitting the (faint gray) midline and/or when hitting the band on the far side.
The trend analysis shows green or red ranges above or below the bands to indicate trend strength - larger swaths of green or red indicates strong trend while shorter swathes indicate weak. If the upper trend color doesn't match the lower trend color, the trend is undecided or transitioning.
Optionally, trend initiation indicators can be turned on to show above/below candles where a trend switch is taking place.

Delta Volume by SiddWolfDelta Volume is Difference between Buying Volume and Selling Volume. This indicator gives the Delta Volume based on Lower TimeFrame Candles. It utilizes security_lower_tf() function, a function that provides Lower TF candle data in Higher TF Chart.
security_lower_tf() is a new function provided by TradingView yesterday. If you are a PineScript Programmer, I suggest you to read about it, as it is a very powerful function that can extremely improve your trading strategy.
How this indicator works:
This indicator checks volume data on lower TimeFrame Candles and Shows it's delta in the current Chart Timeframe. For example: If you open 4 hours chart, this indicator checks volume of 1 minute chart and separates Buying-Selling volume. Then it subtracts Candle's Selling volume from Candle's Buying volume, finally calculating the Delta Volume.
This indicator also provides a Smooth Delta Volume, which is moving average of Delta Volume. As Delta Volume changes a lot, Smooth Delta Volume can be very helpful for identifying Trends . Goto settings and in "Show" section select "Smooth Delta Volume" to lay it on the chart.
Settings is the Key:
Settings are key to all of my indicators. Play around with it a bit. You can change what to show on the chart from settings. Smooth Delta Volume moving average length can be changed from the settings. You can also select "Show as Percentage", which shows Delta Volume as Percentage of Overall Candle's Volume. If you use Weekly or Monthly Timeframe, change increase lower timeframe from settings. Read the tooltips to understand what each settings mean. Tooltips are the (i) button in-front of each settings.
FAQs:
Q. Does the indicator Repaint ?
--- No. None of my indicators repaints. What you see now is what's drawn in real time.
Q. What TimeFrame is Best for this Indicator ?
--- It can be used on timeframes from 5 minutes to higher. But I would prefer to use it from timeframes higher than 30 minutes, as it gathers data from 1 minute TF.
Q. Indicator doesn't show anything ?
--- This indicator only works on security with Volume data. Also use it from higher timeframe than specified in Settings, because Volume Delta is calculated using Data from Lower TimeFrame.
Q. Delta volume is not provided by TradingView, So how exactly does this indicator work?
--- This indicator takes advantage of new pinescript function security_lower_tf(), and calculates volume for smaller timeframe data and calculates delta on higher timeframe.
Q. Does this indicator give financial advice?
--- No. Nope. Nein. Não. नहीं.
Conclusion:
This indicator is very basic but if used correctly it can be very powerful. If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to comment below. I'd love to connect with you. Thank you.

Trend & Momentum V2Declutter your charts. Simple indicator combining trend and momentum using Moving Average (currently default to 9-day EMA) and RSI (default length of 8). A long signal is generated when the price closes above the moving average and the moving average color turns red to green which indicated that the momentum measured using RSI is greater than 50. A short signal is generated when the price closes below the moving average and the moving average color turns green to red indicating RSI is below 50. Confirmation is done if there is no reversal on the next candle. For best results use multiple timeframe charts to trade on the right side of trend and momentum.
Trend Indicator (dow trending) - FontiramisuIndicator showing pivots and interpret a trend out of it.
Pivots are calculating with deviation parameter to validate with more precision.
Trending moves are calculated according to Dow Theory :
In an uptrend, if the price made a new high, the price must make a new high to confirm the trend, otherwise, it might signal a possible change in the trend.
In an uptrend, if the price made a new low, the price must make a new low to confirm the trend, otherwise, it might signal a possible change in the trend.
The indicator can show 2 trends with 2 different "Pivot Depth"

Multiple MAs + No Trend Zone + ATR WidgetThis is my first Pine Script attempt. Nothing special, just an "all in one" for the most common things I use, and what I have found to be the most common in a lot of strategies.
Great for free and limited accounts as it combines 7 total indicators into one.
-- First 5 indicators are Independant Moving Averages:
-Each one can be set for length, as well as source and type (SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, VWMA) individually
-- Second type (6th) of indicator is one I find extremly useful for staying OUT of consolidation trading. It's called a "No Trend Zone" indicator I swipped from the Hoffman Startegy. Basically, its set for a small deviation (0.5) of a 35 EMA, which creates a "Band" around the 35 line. When you have this "Band" flat or with no discernable incline/decline, with price action OR some or multiple moving averages inside this banded zone, it typically indicates a zone of consolidation. This will help you identify when you may be in one of those zones, that way you don't get trapped "waiting for paint to dry" before the market starts to move again with your position, and keep you from entering should you be considering the market at that time.
The last indicator is my favorite, and one I will refine a little deeper soon.
-- The ATR widget finishes us out. This widget can be customized for colors, turned on or off, and automatically rounds the ATR (ATR period based on the chart timeframe) to a nice readable number for what you're trading. It has settings to show or not, the length, what rounding style to use (forex pip 0.0001, forex/stock/etf/indicies 0.01) where to show it on the pane, a Multiplier Factor (for stop loss calculations automatically) and the colors.
***NOTE ABOUT ATR WIDGET:
I am primarily a forex trader, so the defaults are for Forex 0.0001. If you see some odd numbers (like 55798 on a current chart), check the inputs tab on the settings, and change the "ATR Style" from "Forex 0.0001" to "Forex/Stock/ETF/Indicies 0.01", and you should arrive with the correct number.
Trending Bollinger Bands by SiddWolfBollinger Bands are mostly used for trend reversal. I believe they should be used for Trend Continuation and Trend Confirmation.
In this Trending Bollinger Bands script you will see two bands drawn on chart. The Upper band is suggestive of Uptrend and Lower Band is suggestive of Downtrend Market. It just provides the guidance of where the market is now and where it is headed. It is not to be used as a standalone indicator. Use this to confirm your hypothesis of Uptrend or Downtrend.
Bollinger Bands Trend
When the price crosses the moving average it is interpreted as the price is gonna continue in that direction. But most of the time it is a fake breakout. With this script you get an additional confirmation so that you know it is not a fake breakout and the price have caught the trend.
Bollinger Bands Reversal:
This indicator can also work for reversal. For example when price closes outside the outer bands, it is most likely that the trend is gonna reverse. Don't just enter the trade wait for some other confirmation as reversal trading is more complicated.
Confluence:
Confluence is the key factor for profitable trading. Don't use this indicator as standalone indicator instead combine it with other indicators and price action. Like the divergence occurring when the price is outside the bands is suggestive of trend reversal. I have created a non-delay, non-repaint indicator for finding divergence. I'd soon publish that script. Stay tuned.
Settings is the Key:
Try to play around with the settings. It is a simple yet effective indicator. Change the moving average type or length. I've found moving average RMA or WMA works better than SMA. Find the best setting that works with your setup. Set the Band Source as High/Low to make the outer bands more extreme.
Conclusion:
This is my first script but it isn't my last. I've created quite a few gems that I'm gonna publish soon. If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to comment below. I'd love to connect with you. Thank you.
Trend Step - TrailingTrend Step - Trailing Stop is a moving average-based trailing stop that moves in pre-defined steps. In this way, the user can set the number of pips/points they want the trailing to move in relation to the movements in the average. You can also see it as trend steps. Every step represents the trend movement.
Usage
Use it as a trailing stop or as a trend direction tool.

Those who have looked at my other indicators know that I am a big fan of Dr. Alexander Elder and John Carter. This is relevant to my trading style and to this indicator in general. While I understand it goes against TradingView rules generally to display other indicators while describing a new one, I need the Bollinger Bands, Bollinger Bands Width, and a secondary directional indicator to explain the full power of this indicator. In short, if this is strongly against the rules, I will edit the post as needed.
Those of you who are aware of John Carter are going to know this already, but for those who don’t, an explanation is necessary. John Carter is a relatively famous retail-turned-institutional (sort of) trader. He is the founder of TradetheMarkets, that later turned into SimplerTrading. Him and his company have a series of YouTube videos, he has made appearances on the MoneyShow, TastyTrade, and has authored a couple of books about trading. However, he is probably most famous for his “Squeeze” indicator that was originally launched on Thinkorswim and through his website but has now been incorporated into several trading platforms and even has a few open-source versions available here. In short, the Squeeze indicator looks to identify periods of consolidation and marry that with a momentum oscillator so you can position yourself in a quiet period before a large move. This in my opinion, is one of the best indicators an option trader can have, since options are priced both on time and volatility. To do this, the Squeeze identifies when the Bollinger Bands, a measure of price standard deviation, have contracted inside the Keltner Channels (a measure of the average range of a stock). This highlights something known as “the Squeeze”, when the 2x standard deviations (95% of all likely price movement using data from the past 20 periods) is less than the 1.5x average true range (ATR) of the stock over the same number of periods. These periods are when a stock is resting and in a period of consolidation and is generally followed by another large move once it has rested long enough. The momentum oscillator is used to determine the direction of this next move.
While I think this is one of the best indicators ever made, it is not without its pitfalls. I find that the “Squeeze” periods sometimes take too long to setup (something that was addressed by John and released in a new indicator, the Squeeze Pro, but even that is still slowish) and that the momentum oscillator was also a bit slow. They used a linear regression formula to track momentum, which can lag considerably at times. Collectively, this meant that getting into moves a few candles late was not uncommon or someone solely trading squeeze setups could have missed very good trade opportunities.
To improve on this, I present, the Trading Made Easy Pressure Oscillator. This more accurately identifies when volatility is reducing and the trading range is likely to contract, increasing the “pressure” on the price. This is often marked several candles before a “Squeeze” has started. To identify these ranges, I applied a 21-period exponential moving average to the Bollinger Bands Width indicator (BBW). As mentioned above, the Bollinger Bands measure the 2x standard deviation of price, typically based on a 20-period SMA. When the BBs expand, it marks periods of high volatility, when they contract, conversely, periods of low volatility. Therefore, applying an EMA to the BBW indicator allows us to confidently mark when volatility has slowed down earlier than traditional methods. The second improvement I made was using the Absolute Price oscillator instead of a linear regression-style oscillator. The APO is very similar to a MACD, it measures the difference between two exponential moving averages, here the 8 and 21 (Fibonacci EMAs). However, I find the APO to be smoother than the MACD, yet more reactive than the linear regression-style oscillators to get you into moves earlier.
Uses:
1) Buying before a bigger than expected move. This is especially relevant for options traders since theta decay will often eat away much of our profits while we wait for a large enough price move to offset the time decay. Here, we buy a call option/shares when the momentum oscillator matches the longer-term trend (i.e. the APO crosses over the zero line when price is above the 200-day EMA, and vice versa for puts/shorting the stock). This coincides with Dr. Elder’s Triple Screen Trading System, that we are aligning ourselves with the path of least resistance. We want to do this when price is currently in an increasing pressure situation (i.e. volatility is contracting) to make sure we are buying an option when premium and Implied Volatility is low so we can get a better price and have a better risk to reward ratio. Low volatility is denoted by a purple dot, high volatility a blue dot along the midline of the indicator. A scalper or short-term swing trader may look to exit when the blue dots turn purple signalling a likely end to a move. A longer-term trend trader can look to other exit scenarios, such as a cross of the oscillator below the zero line, signalling to go short, or using a moving average as a trailing stop.
2) Sell premium after a larger than expected move has finished. After a larger than expected move has completed (a series of blue dots is followed by a purple dot), use this time to sell theta-driven options strategies such as straddles, strangles, iron condors, calendar spreads, or iron butterflies, anything that benefits from contracting volatility and stagnating prices. This is useful here since reducing volatility typically means a contraction of prices and the reduced likelihood of a move outside of the normal range.
3) Divergences. This indicator is sensitive enough to highlight divergences. I personally don’t use it as such as I prefer to trend trade vs. reversion trade. Use at your own risk, but they are there.
In summary, this indicator improves upon the famous Squeeze indicator by increasing the speed at which periods of consolidation are marked and trend identification. I hope you enjoy it.
Stock Rotation Model [CC]This is an original indicator so a true hidden gem in my opinion. I based this idea off of the work by Giorgos Siligardos (Stocks and Commodities Aug 2012) with his indicator called the Sector Rotation Model. This indicator is best used as a trend confirmation in combination with another indicator such as a leading indicator. This will show you how strong the current stock you are looking at is compared to the S&P 500 which almost everyone uses as a relative strength comparison. Feel free to change the default lengths if you would like as these were just the settings that I liked the best overall. Let me know if you find any good combos that works for most stocks in general. I have included strong buy and sell signals in addition to normal ones so strong signals are darker in color and normal signals are lighter in color. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators or scripts you would like to see me publish!
Buff Averages [CC]The Buff Averages were created by Buff Dormeier (Stocks and Commodities Feb 2001) and this is another hidden gem that is a combo of a volume weighted indicator and a moving average crossover system. It uses a special method to calculate the weighting based on volume. The colored line (fast buff) will follow the price closely and you use the other line to act as a trend confirmation. I have included strong buy and sell signals in addition to normal ones so strong signals are darker in color and normal signals are lighter in color. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators or scripts you would like to see me publish!
Reverse Moving Average Convergence Divergence [CC]The Reverse Macd was created by Johnny Dough (Stocks and Commodities Jan 2012) and this is another indicator in my ongoing series to find those hidden gems. This indicator works in a few very powerful ways. For example the blue line shows you what the current price would be if the macd was at the macd level that you choose. I set the default to 0 but feel free to change it if you want. This will give you short to medium term info by telling you if it is an uptrend when the price is above the blue line or vice versa. It also creates the reverse macd line and it's signal line by using information from the previous day to decompile the macd and show you the price that it would be at if the macd was at that level. It turns this into a new moving average that closely tracks price movements and with the two competing signals, gives you more than enough info to find the perfect entry and exit points. Like always I have included strong buy and sell signals in addition to normal ones so darker colors are strong signals and lighter colors are normal signals. Buy when the line is green and sell when it is red.
Let me know if there are any other scripts you would like to see me publish!
Tillson IE/2 [CC]The IE/2 was created by Tim Tillson (Stocks and Commodities Jan 1998) and this is a practically undiscovered gem because in that same article he goes on to to create the popular T3 moving average and the GDEma but practically no one seemed to notice the IE2 or maybe it is just my imagination. Anyway this indicator name is short for Integral of Linear Regression Slope + Endpoint Moving Average / 2 so you can why it was shortened to IE/2. Like the name implies this takes two variations of smoothing that complement each other and averages them together to in theory get the benefits of each. The EPMA is much noiser but follows the data more closely and the complete opposite for the ILRS so you can see the idea in action. Like all of my indicators I include strong buy and sell signals in addition to normal ones so strong signals are darker in color and normal signals are lighter in color. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators or scripts you would like to see me publish!
Trend Analysis Index [CC]The Trend Analysis Index was created by Adam White and not to be confused with the Trend Analysis Indicator that I also published. This indicator operates under the same idea but using a completely different calculation to achieve similar results. The idea behind this indicator is for a combination of volatility and trend confirmation. If the indicator is above it's signal line then the stock is very volatile and vice versa. If the stock is currently trending as in above a chosen moving average for example and the indicator falls below the signal line then there is a pretty good chance in a trend reversal. The recommended buy and sell system to use is to pair this indicator with a moving average crossover system which I have included in the script. Buy when the indicator is above it's signal and the shorter moving average crosses above the longer moving average. For selling you would do the same and sell when the indicator is above it's signal and the shorter moving average crosses below the longer moving average. I have included strong buy and sell signals in addition to the normal ones so stronger signals are darker in color and normal signals are lighter in color.
Let me know what other indicators or scripts you would like to see me publish!
Adaptive Ehlers Deviation Scaled Moving Average (AEDSMA)AEDSMA INTRODUCTION
This indicator is a functional enhancement to “Ehlers Deviation Scaled Moving Average (EDSMA / DSMA)”. I’ve used Volume Breakout and Volatility for dynamic length adaption and further Slope too for trend evaluation.
EDSMA was originally developed by John F. Ehlers (Stocks & Commodities V. 36:8: The Deviation-Scaled Moving Average).
IDEA PLACEMENT
I’ve traded almost every kind of market with different volatility conditions using Moving Averages. It was too much of a hassle to select and use different MA length depending upon market trend. So, the journey started with adapting Moving Averages with another parameter and that’s how “MZ SAMA ” came into being where Slope was used to adapt Adaptive Moving Average with trend change. The problem was still pretty much the same as SAMA might not be effective on every market condition. Hence, I worked on Volume to adapt Moving Averages accordingly. I cane up with “MZ RVSI ” which I used in “MZ DVAMA ” to adapt dynamic length in Adaptive Moving Average and also used “MZ RVSI " alongside Slope as confirmation of trend changes.
Meanwhile, I started using DVAMA methodology on different types on Moving Averages that allow dynamic length for example Hull Moving Average, Linear Regression Curve, SMA, WMA, TMA and many more. All of my tested Mas showed too much flexibility because of volume based Adaptive length.
I came across a script of “Adaptive Hull Moving Average” which pretty much used the similar methodology as DVAMA but when I looked into its depth, its volume oscillator wasn’t working at all and only volatility based dynamic length was used. It was an interesting idea so, I decided to use Volume and Volatility alongside for better results but was nearly impossible to achieve what I wanted using only Hull Moving Average.
I had been using EDSMA in “MA MTF Cross Strategy” and “MZ SRSI Strategy V1.0” previously. It was the perfect choice when comparing to usage of slope on it. DSMA works perfectly as support and resistance as its Deviation Scaled. So, I tried using it to adapt dynamic length based on Volume and Volatility and I wasn’t disappointed. It worked like a charm when I adapted dynamic length between 50 and 255.
DYNAMIC LENGTH BENEFITS
Dynamic length adaption methodology works in a way of adapting Relatively Lower Length leading toward overfitting if trend is supported by Volume and Volatility . Similarly, adapting Relatively Higher Length leading toward underfitting if trend isn’t supported by Volume and Volatility .
Dynamic length adaption makes Moving Average to work better for both Bull and Bear-runs avoiding almost every fake break-in and breakouts. Hence, adaptive MA becomes more reliable for breakout trading.
MA would be more useful as it would adapt almost every chart based on its Volume and Volatility data.
DYNAMIC COLORS AND TREND CORRELATION
I’ve used dynamic coloring to identify trends with more detail which are as follows:
Lime Color: Strong Uptrend supported by Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Fuchsia Color: Weak uptrend only supported by Slope or whatever you’ve selected.
Red Color: Strong Downtrend supported by Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Grey Color: Weak Downtrend only supported by Slope or whatever you’ve selected.
Yellow Color: Possible reversal indication by Slope if enabled. Market is either sideways, consolidating or showing choppiness during that period.
SIGNALS
Green Circle: Market good for long with support of Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Red Circle: Market good to short with support from Volume and Volatility or whatever you’ve chosen from both of them.
Yellow Cross: Market either touched top or bottom ATR band and can act as good TP or SL.
EDSMA EVELOPE/BANDS: I’ve included ATR based bands to the Adaptive EDSMA which act as good support/resistance despite from main Adaptive EDSMA Curve.
DEFAULT SETTINGS
I’ve set default Minimum length to 50 and Maximum length to 255 which I’ve found works best for almost all timeframes but you can change this delta to adapt your timeframe accordingly with more precision.
Dynamic length adoption is enabled based on both Volume and Volatility but only one or none of them can also be selected.
Trend signals are enabled based on Slope and Volume but Volatility can be enabled for more precise confirmations.
In “ RVSI ” settings TFS Volume Oscillator is set to default but others work good too especially Volume Zone Oscillator. For more details about Volume Breakout you can check “MZ RVSI Indicator".
ATR breakout is set to be positive if period 14 exceeds period 46 but can be changed if more adaption with volatility is required.
EDSMA super smoother filter length is set to 20 which can be increased to 50 or more for better smoothing but this will also change slope results accordingly.
EDSMA super smoother filter poles are set to 2 because found better results with 2 instead of 3.
FURTHER ENHANCEMENTS
So far, I’ve seen better results with Volume Breakout and Volatility but other parameters such as Linear Slope of Particular MA, MACD, “MZ SRSI ”, a Conditional Uptrend MA or simply KDJ can also be used for dynamic length adaption.
I haven't yet gotten used to pine script arrays so, defining and using conditional operators is pretty much lazy programming for me. Would be great redefining everything through truth matrix instead of using if-else conditions.
RVOL Relative Volume - IntradayHello All,
Relative Volume is one of the most important indicators and Traders should check it while trading/analyzing. it is used to identify whether the volume flows are increasing or decreasing. Relative volume measures current volume in relation to the “usual” volume for this time of the day. What is considered “usual"? For that, we have to use a historical baseline known as the average daily volume. That means how much volume a security does on a daily basis over a defined period. (This scripts runs on the time frames greater or equal 1 minute and less than 1 day)
The common definition for real-time relative volume is: Current volume for this time of day / Average volume for this time of day. It does not mean taking the volume (for example) from 10:30 am to 10:45 am and comparing it to what it does from 10:30 am to 10:45 am every day. What it truly means is to compare cumulative volumes. Therefore, this is the precise definition of real-time relative volume:
Current cumulative volume up to this time of day / Average cumulative volume up to this time of day
What should we understand while checking RVOL;
- Relative volume tell us if volume flows are increasing or decreasing
- A high relative volume tells us that there is increased trading activity in a security today
- Increased volume flows often accompany higher volatility i.e. a significant price move
Let see an example:
P.S. if you want to get more info about RVOL/Relative Volume then you can search it on the net. While developing the script this was used as reference, you can also check it for more info.
Enjoy!
Relative Volume Strength Index (MZ RVSI)INTRODUCTION
Volume always plays a role of key indication for price movements and momentum and I always found the same problem with all available volume oscillators and indicators which is that their data is always in compounded form that can’t be easily used in raw form as a parameter in many strategies.
This indicator uses raw volume data from one of following oscillators:
TFS Volume Oscillator
On Balance Volume
Klinger Volume Oscillator
Cumulative Volume Oscillator
Volume Zone Oscillator
Then this data goes through the following process of noise filtration:
Hull Moving Average of input data to reduce noise
Relative Strength Index of HMA
Hull Moving Average of RSI to reduce noise for finalized RVSI
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Heiken-Ashi: Heiken-Ashi values are optional to use in calculations and I’ve set them to default as I found good results with them.
Slope for Trend Detection: Slope of finalized RVSI is calculated in order to check volume trend direction. Another additional feature of Volume breakouts is also added which is used in dynamic coloring of RVSI. Dynamic color indications are as follows.
Green Color:
Strong Volume Uptrend above volume breakout point
Fuchsia Color:
Weak Volume Uptrend below volume breakout point but slope supported
Red Color:
Strong Volume Downtrend below volume breakout point
Gray Color:
Weak Volume Downtrend above volume breakout point but slope supported
Yellow Color:
Possible trend reversal as slope is flat.
DEFAULTS SETTINGS
Volume length is 30 (Better for timeframes higher than 1H)
Hull Moving Average and RSI length is set to 14
ADDITIONAL APPLICATIONS
This indicator can be used as divergence detection tool for volume same way as RSI is used for price divergence. I’ll soon add divergence signals inside the code and this code can be used in multiple ways as volume breakout indication in strategies for better results.
Slope Adaptive Moving Average (MZ SAMA)INTRODUCTION
This script is inspired from "Vitali Apirine (Stocks & Commodities V.36:5: Adaptive Moving Averages)" and a correction to Dynamic Volume Adaptive Moving Average (MZ DVAMA) . I have used slope filtering in order to adapt trends more precisely for better trades.
Slope adaption makes it better for adaptive moving average to detect trend health; making it easier to make decisions based on market strong price momentums, consolidations or breakouts. This isn’t possible with only using simply Adaptive Moving Averages .
Adaptive Moving Averages curve doesn’t change its length based on Slope but it uses slope adaptive color for trend strength detection.
TREND DETECTION
Green Color:
Strong Uptrend with good price momentum.
Red Color:
Strong Downtrend.
Yellow Color:
Market is either choppy, sideways or consolidating. Better to avoid taking new positions and if trade is running then its good to carry it on.
DEFAULTS SETTINGS
AMA length is 200 (Better for timeframes higher than 1H)
Minor length is 6
Major length is 14
Slope period is set to 34 with 25 of initial range. Consolidation is always below 17.
ALERTS
Buy/Sell Alerts will follow on when slope is out of consolidation/choppiness area. Best entry is at absolute alerts timing but other trades can be started midway based on trend condition.
