MERCURY by DrAbhiramSivprasad"MERCURY by DrAbhiramSivprasad"
Developed from over 10 years of personal trading experience, the Mercury Indicator is a strategic tool designed to enhance accuracy in trading decisions. Think of it as a guiding light—a supportive tool that helps traders refine and build more robust strategies by integrating multiple powerful elements into a single indicator. I’ll be sharing some examples to illustrate how I use this indicator in my own trading journey, highlighting its potential to improve strategy accuracy.
Reason behind the combination of emas , cpr and vwap is it provides very good support and resistance in my trading carrier so now i brought them together in one plate
How It Works:
Mercury combines three essential elements—EMA, VWAP, and CPR—each of which plays a vital role in detecting support and resistance:
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): Known for their strength in providing dynamic support and resistance levels, EMAs help in identifying trends and shifts in momentum. This indicator includes a dashboard with up to nine customizable EMAs, showing whether each is acting as support or resistance based on real-time price movement.
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP): VWAP also provides valuable support and resistance, often regarded as a fair price level by institutional traders. Paired with EMAs, it forms a dual-layered support/resistance system, adding an additional level of confirmation.
Central Pivot Range (CPR): By combining CPR with EMAs and VWAP, Mercury highlights “traffic blocks” in your target journey. This means it identifies zones where price is likely to stall or reverse, providing additional guidance for navigating entries and exits.
Why This Combination Matters:
Using these three tools together gives you a more complete view of the market. VWAP and EMAs offer dynamic trend direction and support/resistance, while CPR pinpoints critical price zones. This combination helps you find high-probability trades, adding clarity to complex market situations and enabling stronger confirmation on trend or reversal decisions.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation: Check if all EMAs are aligned (green for uptrend, red for downtrend), which is visible in the EMA dashboard. An alignment across VWAP, CPR, and EMAs signifies high confidence in trend direction.
Breakouts & Breakdowns: Mercury has an alert system to signal when a price breakout or breakdown occurs across VWAP, EMA1, and EMA2. This can help in spotting strong directional moves.
Example Application: In my trading, I use Mercury to identify support/resistance zones, confirming trends with EMA/VWAP alignment and using CPR as a checkpoint. I find this especially useful for day trading and swing setups.
Recommended Timeframes:
Day Trading: 5 to 15-minute charts for swift, actionable insights.
Swing Trading: 1-hour or 4-hour charts for broader trend analysis.
Note:
The Mercury Indicator should be used as a supportive tool rather than a standalone strategy, guiding you toward informed decisions in line with your trading style and goals.
EXAMPLE OF TRADE
you can see the cart of XAUUSD on 11th nov 2024
1.SHORT POSITION - TIME FRAME 15 MIN
So here for a short position you need to wait for a breakdown candle which will print in orange post the candle you need to check ema dashboard is completly red that indicates no traffic blocks in your journey to destiny target from ema's and you can take the target from nearest cpr support line
TAKEN IN XAUUSD you can see in chart of XAUUSD on 7th nov
2.LONG POSITION - TIME FRAME 15 MIN -
So here for long position you need to wait for a breakout candle from indicator thats here is blue and check all ema boxes are green and candle body should close above all the 3 lines here it is the both ema 1 and 2 and the vwap line then you can take and entry and your target will be the nearest resistance from the daily cpr
3. STOP LOSS CRITERIA
After the entry any candle close below any of the last line from entry for example we have 3 lines vwap and ema 1 and 2 lines and u have made an entry and the last line before the entry is vwap then if any candle closes below vwap can be considered as stoploss like wise in any lines
The MERCURY indicator is a comprehensive trading tool designed to enhance traders' ability to identify trends, breakouts, and reversals effectively. Created by Dr. Abhiram Sivprasad, this indicator integrates several technical elements, including Central Pivot Range (CPR), EMA crossovers, VWAP levels, and a table-based EMA dashboard, to offer a holistic trading view.
Core Components and Functionality:
Central Pivot Range (CPR):
The CPR in MERCURY provides a central pivot level along with Below Central (BC) and Top Central (TC) pivots. These levels act as potential support and resistance, useful for identifying reversal points and zones where price may consolidate.
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
MERCURY includes up to nine EMAs, with a customizable EMA crossover alert system. This feature enables traders to see shifts in trend direction, especially when shorter EMAs cross longer ones.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price):
VWAP is incorporated as a dynamic support/resistance level and, combined with EMA crossovers, helps refine entry and exit points for higher probability trades.
Breakout and Breakdown Alerts:
MERCURY monitors conditions for upside and downside breakouts. For an upside breakout, all EMAs turn green and a candle closes above VWAP, EMA1, and EMA2. Similarly, all EMAs turning red, combined with a close below VWAP and EMA1/EMA2, signals a downside breakdown. Continuous alerts are available until the trend shifts.
Real-Time EMA Dashboard:
A table displays each EMA’s relative position (Above or Below), helping traders quickly gauge trend direction. Colors in the table adjust to long/short conditions based on EMA alignment.
Usage Recommendations:
Trend Confirmation:
Use the CPR, EMA alignments, and VWAP to confirm uptrends and downtrends. The table highlights trends, making it easy to spot long or short setups at a glance.
Breakout and Breakdown Alerts:
The alert system is customizable for continuous notifications on critical price levels. When all EMAs align in one direction (green for long, red for short) and the close is above or below VWAP and key EMAs, the indicator confirms a breakout/breakdown.
Adaptable for Different Styles:
Day Trading: Traders can set shorter EMAs for quick insights.
Swing Trading: Longer EMAs combined with CPR offer insights into sustained trends.
Recommended Settings:
Timeframes: MERCURY is suitable for timeframes as low as 5 minutes for intraday traders, up to daily charts for trend analysis.
Symbols: Works across forex, stocks, and crypto. Adjust EMA lengths for asset volatility.
Example Strategy:
Long Entry: When the price crosses above CPR and closes above both EMA1 and EMA2.
Short Entry: When the price falls below CPR with a close below both EMA1 and EMA2.

GeoMean+The Geometric Moving Average (GMA) with Sigma Bands is a technical indicator that combines trend following and volatility measurement. The blue center line represents the GMA, while the upper and lower bands (light blue) show price volatility using standard deviations (sigma). Traders can use this indicator for both trend following and mean reversion strategies. For trend following, enter long when price crosses above the GMA and short when it crosses below, using the bands as profit targets. For mean reversion, look for buying opportunities when price touches the lower band and selling opportunities at the upper band, with the GMA as your profit target. The indicator includes alerts for band touches and crosses, providing real-time notifications with symbol, timeframe, current price, and band level information. The default 100-period setting works well for daily charts, but can be adjusted shorter (20-50) for intraday trading or longer (200+) for position trading. Wider bands indicate higher volatility (use smaller positions), while narrower bands suggest lower volatility (larger positions possible). For best results, confirm signals with volume and avoid trading against strong trends. Stop losses can be placed beyond the touched band or at the GMA line, depending on your risk tolerance.
TrigWave Suite [InvestorUnknown]The TrigWave Suite combines Sine-weighted, Cosine-weighted, and Hyperbolic Tangent moving averages (HTMA) with a Directional Movement System (DMS) and a Relative Strength System (RSS).
Hyperbolic Tangent Moving Average (HTMA)
The HTMA smooths the price by applying a hyperbolic tangent transformation to the difference between the price and a simple moving average. It also adjusts this value by multiplying it by a standard deviation to create a more stable signal.
// Function to calculate Hyperbolic Tangent
tanh(x) =>
e_x = math.exp(x)
e_neg_x = math.exp(-x)
(e_x - e_neg_x) / (e_x + e_neg_x)
// Function to calculate Hyperbolic Tangent Moving Average
htma(src, len, mul) =>
tanh_src = tanh((src - ta.sma(src, len)) * mul) * ta.stdev(src, len) + ta.sma(src, len)
htma = ta.sma(tanh_src, len)
Sine-Weighted Moving Average (SWMA)
The SWMA applies sine-based weights to historical prices. This gives more weight to the central data points, making it responsive yet less prone to noise.
// Function to calculate the Sine-Weighted Moving Average
f_Sine_Weighted_MA(series float src, simple int length) =>
var float sine_weights = array.new_float(0)
array.clear(sine_weights) // Clear the array before recalculating weights
for i = 0 to length - 1
weight = math.sin((math.pi * (i + 1)) / length)
array.push(sine_weights, weight)
// Normalize the weights
sum_weights = array.sum(sine_weights)
for i = 0 to length - 1
norm_weight = array.get(sine_weights, i) / sum_weights
array.set(sine_weights, i, norm_weight)
// Calculate Sine-Weighted Moving Average
swma = 0.0
if bar_index >= length
for i = 0 to length - 1
swma := swma + array.get(sine_weights, i) * src
swma
Cosine-Weighted Moving Average (CWMA)
The CWMA uses cosine-based weights for data points, which produces a more stable trend-following behavior, especially in low-volatility markets.
f_Cosine_Weighted_MA(series float src, simple int length) =>
var float cosine_weights = array.new_float(0)
array.clear(cosine_weights) // Clear the array before recalculating weights
for i = 0 to length - 1
weight = math.cos((math.pi * (i + 1)) / length) + 1 // Shift by adding 1
array.push(cosine_weights, weight)
// Normalize the weights
sum_weights = array.sum(cosine_weights)
for i = 0 to length - 1
norm_weight = array.get(cosine_weights, i) / sum_weights
array.set(cosine_weights, i, norm_weight)
// Calculate Cosine-Weighted Moving Average
cwma = 0.0
if bar_index >= length
for i = 0 to length - 1
cwma := cwma + array.get(cosine_weights, i) * src
cwma
Directional Movement System (DMS)
DMS is used to identify trend direction and strength based on directional movement. It uses ADX to gauge trend strength and combines +DI and -DI for directional bias.
// Function to calculate Directional Movement System
f_DMS(simple int dmi_len, simple int adx_len) =>
up = ta.change(high)
down = -ta.change(low)
plusDM = na(up) ? na : (up > down and up > 0 ? up : 0)
minusDM = na(down) ? na : (down > up and down > 0 ? down : 0)
trur = ta.rma(ta.tr, dmi_len)
plus = fixnan(100 * ta.rma(plusDM, dmi_len) / trur)
minus = fixnan(100 * ta.rma(minusDM, dmi_len) / trur)
sum = plus + minus
adx = 100 * ta.rma(math.abs(plus - minus) / (sum == 0 ? 1 : sum), adx_len)
dms_up = plus > minus and adx > minus
dms_down = plus < minus and adx > plus
dms_neutral = not (dms_up or dms_down)
signal = dms_up ? 1 : dms_down ? -1 : 0
Relative Strength System (RSS)
RSS employs RSI and an adjustable moving average type (SMA, EMA, or HMA) to evaluate whether the market is in a bullish or bearish state.
// Function to calculate Relative Strength System
f_RSS(rsi_src, rsi_len, ma_type, ma_len) =>
rsi = ta.rsi(rsi_src, rsi_len)
ma = switch ma_type
"SMA" => ta.sma(rsi, ma_len)
"EMA" => ta.ema(rsi, ma_len)
"HMA" => ta.hma(rsi, ma_len)
signal = (rsi > ma and rsi > 50) ? 1 : (rsi < ma and rsi < 50) ? -1 : 0
ATR Adjustments
To minimize false signals, the HTMA, SWMA, and CWMA signals are adjusted with an Average True Range (ATR) filter:
// Calculate ATR adjusted components for HTMA, CWMA and SWMA
float atr = ta.atr(atr_len)
float htma_up = htma + (atr * atr_mult)
float htma_dn = htma - (atr * atr_mult)
float swma_up = swma + (atr * atr_mult)
float swma_dn = swma - (atr * atr_mult)
float cwma_up = cwma + (atr * atr_mult)
float cwma_dn = cwma - (atr * atr_mult)
This adjustment allows for better adaptation to varying market volatility, making the signal more reliable.
Signals and Trend Calculation
The indicator generates a Trend Signal by aggregating the output from each component. Each component provides a directional signal that is combined to form a unified trend reading. The trend value is then converted into a long (1), short (-1), or neutral (0) state.
Backtesting Mode and Performance Metrics
The Backtesting Mode includes a performance metrics table that compares the Buy and Hold strategy with the TrigWave Suite strategy. Key statistics like Sharpe Ratio, Sortino Ratio, and Omega Ratio are displayed to help users assess performance. Note that due to labels and plotchar use, automatic scaling may not function ideally in backtest mode.
Alerts and Visualization
Trend Direction Alerts: Set up alerts for long and short signals
Color Bars and Gradient Option: Bars are colored based on the trend direction, with an optional gradient for smoother visual feedback.
Important Notes
Customization: Default settings are experimental and not intended for trading/investing purposes. Users are encouraged to adjust and calibrate the settings to optimize results according to their trading style.
Backtest Results Disclaimer: Please note that backtest results are not indicative of future performance, and no strategy guarantees success.
Cross-Asset Correlation Trend IndicatorCross-Asset Correlation Trend Indicator
This indicator uses correlations between the charted asset and ten others to calculate an overall trend prediction. Each ticker is configurable, and by analyzing the trend of each asset, the indicator predicts an average trend for the main asset on the chart. The strength of each asset's trend is weighted by its correlation to the charted asset, resulting in a single average trend signal. This can be a rather robust and effective signal, though it is often slow.
Functionality Overview :
The Cross-Asset Correlation Trend Indicator calculates the average trend of a charted asset based on the correlation and trend of up to ten other assets. Each asset is assigned a trend signal using a simple EMA crossover method (two customizable EMAs). If the shorter EMA crosses above the longer one, the asset trend is marked as positive; if it crosses below, the trend is negative. Each trend is then weighted by the correlation coefficient between that asset’s closing price and the charted asset’s closing price. The final output is an average weighted trend signal, which combines each trend with its respective correlation weight.
Input Parameters :
EMA 1 Length : Sets the period of the shorter EMA used to determine trends.
EMA 2 Length : Sets the period of the longer EMA used to determine trends.
Correlation Length : Defines the lookback period used for calculating the correlation between the charted asset and each of the other selected assets.
Asset Tickers : Each of the ten tickers is configurable, allowing you to set specific assets to analyze correlations with the charted asset.
Show Trend Table : Toggle to show or hide a table with each asset’s weighted trend. The table displays green, red, or white text for each weighted trend, indicating positive, negative, or neutral trends, respectively.
Table Position : Choose the position of the trend table on the chart.
Recommended Use :
As always, it’s essential to backtest the indicator thoroughly on your chosen asset and timeframe to ensure it aligns with your strategy. Feel free to modify the input parameters as needed—while the defaults work well for me, they may need adjustment to better suit your assets, timeframes, and trading style.
As always, I wish you the best of luck and immense fortune as you develop your systems. May this indicator help you make well-informed, profitable decisions!
Supertrend EMA & KNNSupertrend EMA & KNN
The Supertrend EMA indicator cuts through the noise to deliver clear trend signals.
This tool is built using the good old Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) with a novel of machine learning; KNN (K Nearest Neighbors) breakout detection method.
Key Features:
Effortless Trend Identification: Supertrend EMA simplifies trend analysis by automatically displaying a color-coded EMA. Green indicates an uptrend, red signifies a downtrend, and the absence of color suggests a potential range.
Dynamic Breakout Detection: Unlike traditional EMAs, Supertrend EMA incorporates a KNN-based approach to identify breakouts. This allows for faster color changes compared to standard EMAs, offering a more dynamic picture of the trend.
Customizable Parameters: Fine-tune the indicator to your trading style. Adjust the EMA length for trend smoothing, KNN lookback window for breakout sensitivity, and breakout threshold for filtering noise.
A Glimpse Under the Hood:
Dual EMA Power: The indicator utilizes two EMAs. A longer EMA (controlled by the "EMA Length" parameter) provides a smooth trend direction, while a shorter EMA (controlled by the "Short EMA Length" parameter) triggers color changes, aiming for faster response to breakouts.
KNN Breakout Detection: This innovative feature analyzes price action over a user-defined lookback period (controlled by the "KNN Lookback Length" parameter) to identify potential breakouts. If the price surpasses a user-defined threshold (controlled by the "Breakout Threshold" parameter) above the recent highs, a green color is triggered, signaling a potential uptrend. Conversely, a breakdown below the recent lows triggers a red color, indicating a potential downtrend.
Trading with Supertrend EMA:
Ride the Trend: When the indicator displays green, look for long (buy) opportunities, especially when confirmed by bullish price action patterns on lower timeframes. Conversely, red suggests potential shorting (sell) opportunities, again confirmed by bearish price action on lower timeframes.
Embrace Clarity: The color-coded EMA provides a clear visual representation of the trend, allowing you to focus on price action and refine your entry and exit strategies.
A Word of Caution:
While Supertrend EMA offers faster color changes than traditional EMAs, it's important to acknowledge a slight inherent lag. Breakout detection relies on historical data, and there may be a brief delay before the color reflects a new trend.
To achieve optimal results, consider:
Complementary Tools: Combine Supertrend EMA with other indicators or price action analysis for additional confirmation before entering trades.
Solid Risk Management: Always practice sound risk management strategies such as using stop-loss orders to limit potential losses.
Supertrend EMA is a powerful tool designed to simplify trend identification and enhance your trading experience. However, remember, no single indicator guarantees success. Use it with a comprehensive trading strategy and disciplined risk management for optimal results.
Disclaimer:
While the Supertrend EMA indicator can be a valuable tool for identifying potential trend changes, it's important to note that it's not infallible. Market conditions can be highly dynamic, and indicators may sometimes provide false signals. Therefore, it's crucial to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and sound risk management practices. Always conduct thorough research and consider consulting with a financial advisor before making any investment decisions.
Power Core MAThe Power Core MA indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify the most significant moving average (MA) in a given price chart. This indicator analyzes a wide range of moving averages, from 50 to 400 periods, to determine which one has the strongest influence on the current price action.
The blue line plotted on the chart represents the "Current Core MA," which is the moving average that is most closely aligned with other nearby moving averages. This line indicates the current trend and potential support or resistance levels.
The table displayed on the chart provides two important pieces of information. The "Current Core MA" value shows the length of the moving average that is currently most influential. The "Historical Core MA" value represents the average length of the most influential moving averages over time.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders and analysts who want to identify the most relevant moving average for their analysis. By focusing on the moving average that has the strongest historical significance, users can make more informed decisions about trend direction, support and resistance levels, and potential entry or exit points.
The Power Core MA is an excellent tool for those interested in finding the strongest moving average in the price history. It simplifies the process of analyzing multiple moving averages by automatically identifying the most influential one, saving time and providing valuable insights into market dynamics.
By combining current and historical data, this indicator offers a comprehensive view of the market's behavior, helping traders to adapt their strategies to the most relevant timeframes and trend strengths.

Multi-Trend SynchronizerMulti-Trend Synchronizer
The Multi-Trend Synchronizer indicator provides a multi-timeframe trend analysis using SMMA (Smoothed Moving Average) across three user-defined timeframes: short, medium, and long-term. By synchronizing trends from these timeframes, this tool helps traders identify stronger alignment signals for potential trend continuation or reversal, enhancing decision-making in various market conditions.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis: Users can set three different timeframes, allowing flexibility in tracking trends over short (e.g., 15 minutes), medium (e.g., 1 hour), and long-term (e.g., 4 hours) intervals.
Clear Trend Visualization: The indicator plots SMMA lines on the main chart, color-coded by timeframe for intuitive reading. It also displays an at-a-glance trend alignment table, showing the current trend direction (bullish, bearish, or neutral) for each timeframe.
Buy and Sell Signals: Alignment across all timeframes generates Buy and Sell signals, visualized on the chart with distinct markers to aid entry/exit timing.
Usage Notes
This indicator is best used for trend-following strategies. The SMMA-based design provides smoother trend transitions, reducing noise compared to standard moving averages. However, as with all indicators, it is not foolproof and should be combined with other analyses for robust decision-making.
How It Works
The indicator calculates SMMA values for each selected timeframe and tracks trend changes based on SMMA's direction. When all timeframes show a unified direction (either bullish or bearish), the indicator generates a Buy or Sell signal. A table displays real-time trend direction, with color codes to assist traders in quickly assessing the market's overall direction.
Indicator Settings
Timeframes: Customize each SMMA timeframe to align with personal trading strategies or market conditions.
SMMA Length: Adjust the length of the SMMA to control sensitivity. Lower values may increase signal frequency, while higher values provide smoother, more stable trend indicators.
Disclaimer: As with any trend-following tool, this indicator is most effective when used in trending markets and may be less reliable in sideways conditions. Past performance does not guarantee future results, and users should be cautious of market volatility.

Arshtiq - Multi-Timeframe Trend StrategyMulti-Timeframe Setup:
The script uses two distinct timeframes: a higher (daily) timeframe for identifying the trend and a lower (hourly) timeframe for making trades. This combination allows the script to follow the larger trend while timing entries and exits with more precision on a shorter timeframe.
Moving Averages Calculation:
higher_ma: The 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) calculated based on the daily timeframe. This average gives a sense of the larger trend direction.
lower_ma: The 20-period SMA calculated on the hourly (current) timeframe, providing a dynamic level for detecting entry and exit points within the broader trend.
Trend Identification:
Bullish Trend: The script determines that a bullish trend is present if the current price is above the daily moving average (higher_ma).
Bearish Trend: Similarly, a bearish trend is identified when the current price is below this daily moving average.
Trade Signals:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when the price on the hourly chart crosses above the hourly 20-period MA, but only if the higher (daily) timeframe trend is bullish. This ensures that buy trades align with the larger upward trend.
Sell Signal: A sell signal is generated when the price on the hourly chart crosses below the hourly 20-period MA, but only if the daily trend is bearish. This ensures that sell trades are consistent with the broader downtrend.
Plotting and Visual Cues:
Higher Timeframe MA: The daily 20-period moving average is plotted in red to help visualize the long-term trend.
Buy and Sell Signals: Buy signals appear as green labels below the price bars with the text "BUY," while sell signals appear as red labels above the bars with the text "SELL."
Background Coloring: The background changes color based on the identified trend for easier trend recognition:
Green (with transparency) when the daily trend is bullish.
Red (with transparency) when the daily trend is bearish.

Moving Average Simple Tool [OmegaTools]This TradingView script is a versatile Moving Average Tool that offers users multiple moving average types and a customizable overbought and oversold (OB/OS) sensitivity feature. It is designed to assist in identifying potential price trends, reversals, and momentum by using different average calculations and providing visual indicators for deviation levels. Below is a detailed breakdown of the settings, functionality, and visual elements within the Moving Average Simple Tool.
Indicator Overview
Indicator Name: Moving Average Simple Tool
Short Title: MA Tool
Purpose: Provides a choice of six moving average types with configurable sensitivity, which helps traders identify trend direction, potential reversal zones, and overbought or oversold conditions.
Input Parameters
Source (src): This option allows the user to select the data source for the moving average calculation. By default, it is set to close, but users can choose other options like open, high, low, or any custom price data.
Length (lnt): Defines the period length for the moving average. By default, it is set to 21 periods, allowing users to adjust the moving average sensitivity to either shorter or longer periods.
Average Type (mode): This input defines the moving average calculation type. Six types of averages are available:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
WMA (Weighted Moving Average)
VWMA (Volume-Weighted Moving Average)
RMA (Rolling Moving Average)
Middle Line: Calculates the average between the highest and lowest price over the period specified in Length. This is useful for a mid-range line rather than a traditional moving average.
Sensitivity (sens): This parameter controls the sensitivity of the overbought and oversold levels. The sensitivity value can range from 1 to 40, where a lower value represents a higher sensitivity and a higher value allows for smoother OB/OS zones.
Color Settings:
OS (Oversold Color, upc): The color applied to deviation areas that fall below the oversold threshold.
OB (Overbought Color, dnc): The color applied to deviation areas that exceed the overbought threshold.
Middle Line Color (midc): A gradient color that visually blends between overbought and oversold colors for smoother visual transitions.
Calculation Components
Moving Average Calculation (mu): Based on the chosen Average Type, this calculation derives the moving average or middle line value for the selected source and length.
Deviation (dev): The deviation of the source value from the moving average is calculated. This is useful to determine whether the current price is significantly above or below the average, signaling potential buying or selling opportunities.
Overbought (ob) and Oversold (os) Levels: These levels are calculated using a linear percentile interpolation based on the deviation, length, and sensitivity inputs. The higher the sensitivity, the narrower the overbought and oversold zones, allowing users to capture more frequent signals.
Visual Elements
Moving Average Line (mu): This line represents the moving average based on the selected calculation method and is plotted with a dynamic color based on deviation thresholds. When the deviation crosses into overbought or oversold zones, it shifts to the corresponding OB/OS colors, providing a visual indication of potential trend reversals.
Deviation Plot (dev): This plot visualizes the deviation values as a column plot, with colors matching the overbought, oversold, or neutral states. This helps users to quickly assess whether the price is trending or reverting back to its mean.
Overbought (ob) and Oversold (os) Levels: These levels are plotted as fixed lines, helping users identify when the deviation crosses into overbought or oversold zones.
M.Kiriti RSI with SMA & WMAThis script is a custom RSI indicator with added SMA and WMA moving averages to smooth RSI trends and improve analysis of momentum shifts.
1. RSI Calculation: Measures 14-period RSI of the closing price, default threshold levels at 70 (overbought) and 30 (oversold).
2. Moving Averages (SMA and WMA):
- SMA and WMA are applied to RSI for trend smoothing.
- SMA gives equal weight; WMA gives more weight to recent values, making it more responsive.
3.Overbought/Oversold Lines and Labels:
- Horizontal lines and scale labels at 70 (overbought) and 30 (oversold) make these levels easy to reference.
This indicator is useful for identifying potential reversal points and momentum trends when RSI crosses its moving averages.
Smoothed Heiken Ashi Trend FilterThis indicator applies the Heiken Ashi technique with added smoothing and trend filtering to help reduce noise and improve trend detection.
Components of the Indicator:
Heiken Ashi Calculations:
Heiken Ashi Close (ha_close): This is the smoothed average of the current bar’s open, high, low, and close prices, calculated with a simple moving average (SMA) to filter out noise.
Heiken Ashi Open (ha_open): This is the average of the previous Heiken Ashi Open and the current Heiken Ashi Close. It’s also initialized to smooth the transition on the first bar.
Heiken Ashi High (ha_high) and Low (ha_low): These values are calculated as the highest and lowest values among the high, Heiken Ashi Open, and Heiken Ashi Close for each bar.
Smoothing and Noise Reduction:
Smoothing Length: The indicator applies a smoothing length to the Heiken Ashi Close, calculated with an SMA. This reduces minor fluctuations, giving a clearer view of the price action.
Minimum Body Size Filter: This filter calculates the body size of each Heiken Ashi candle and compares it to a percentage of the Average True Range (ATR). Only significant candles (those with larger bodies) are plotted, reducing weak or indecisive signals.
Trend Filtering with Moving Average:
The indicator uses a simple moving average (SMA) as a trend filter. By comparing the Heiken Ashi Close to the moving average:
Bullish Trend: The Heiken Ashi candle is green when it’s above the moving average.
Bearish Trend: The Heiken Ashi candle is red when it’s below the moving average.
How to Use This Indicator:
Trend Identification:
Green candles signify a bullish trend, while red candles signify a bearish trend.
The smoothing and trend filtering make it easier to identify sustained trends and avoid reacting to short-term fluctuations.
Filtering Out Noise:
Minor price fluctuations and small-bodied candles (often resulting in indecisive signals) are filtered out, leaving only significant signals.
Adjustable Parameters:
Smoothing Length: Controls the degree of smoothing applied to the Heiken Ashi Close value. Increasing this value will make the Heiken Ashi candles smoother.
Minimum Body Size: This is a percentage of the ATR, used to filter out small or indecisive candles.
Trend Moving Average Length: Controls the period of the moving average used as a trend filter.
This Smoothed Heiken Ashi Trend Filter indicator is useful for identifying trends and filtering out noisy signals. By smoothing and filtering, it helps traders focus on the overall trend rather than minor price movements.

VPA Volume Price AverageDescription:
This indicator displays a moving average of volume and its signal line in a separate pane, with conditional highlighting to help interpret buyer and seller pressure. It’s based on two main lines:
Volume Moving Average (red line) : represents the average volume calculated over a configurable number of periods.
Signal Line of the Volume Moving Average (blue line): this is an average of the volume moving average itself, used as a reference for volume trends.
Key Features
Volume Moving Average with Conditional Highlighting:
The volume moving average is plotted as a red line and changes color based on two specific conditions:
The closing price is above its moving average, calculated over a configurable number of periods, indicating a bullish trend.
The volume moving average is greater than the signal line, suggesting an increase in buyer pressure.
When both conditions are met, the volume moving average turns green. If one or both conditions are not met, the line remains red.
Signal Line of the Volume Moving Average:
The signal line is plotted in blue and represents a smoothed version of the volume moving average, useful for identifying long-term volume trends and as a reference for the highlighting condition.
Customizable Periods
The indicator allows you to set the periods for each average to adapt to different timeframes and desired sensitivity:
Period for calculating the volume moving average.
Period for calculating the signal line of the volume moving average.
Period for the price moving average (used in the highlighting condition).
How to Use
This indicator is especially useful for monitoring volume dynamics in detail, with a visual system that highlights conditions of increasing buyer strength when the price is in an uptrend. The green highlight on the volume moving average provides an intuitive signal for identifying potential moments of buyer support.
Try it to gain a clearer and more focused view of volume behavior relative to price movement!

DeNoised Momentum [OmegaTools]The DeNoised Momentum by OmegaTools is a versatile tool designed to help traders evaluate momentum, acceleration, and noise-reduction levels in price movements. Using advanced mathematical smoothing techniques, this script provides a "de-noised" view of momentum by applying filters to reduce market noise. This helps traders gain insights into the strength and direction of price trends without the distractions of market volatility. Key components include a DeNoised Moving Average (MA), a Momentum line, and Acceleration bars to identify trend shifts more clearly.
Features:
- Momentum Line: Measures the percentage change of the de-noised source price over a specified look-back period, providing insights into trend direction.
- Acceleration (Ret) Bars: Visualizes the rate of change of the source price, helping traders identify momentum shifts.
- Normal and DeNoised Moving Averages: Two moving averages, one based on close price (Normal MA) and the other on de-noised data (DeNoised MA), enable a comparison of smoothed trends versus typical price movements.
- DeNoised Price Data Plot: Displays the current de-noised price, color-coded to indicate the relationship between the Normal and DeNoised MAs, which highlights bullish or bearish conditions.
Script Inputs:
- Length (lnt): Sets the period for calculations (default: 21). It influences the sensitivity of the momentum and moving averages. Higher values will smooth the indicator further, while lower values increase sensitivity to price changes.
The Length does not change the formula of the DeNoised Price Data, it only affects the indicators calculated on it.
Indicator Components:
1. Momentum (Blue/Red Line):
- Calculated using the log of the percentage change over the specified period.
- Blue color indicates positive momentum; red indicates negative momentum.
2. Acceleration (Gray Columns):
- Measures the short-term rate of change in momentum, shown as semi-transparent gray columns.
3. Moving Averages:
- Normal MA (Purple): A standard simple moving average (SMA) based on the close price over the selected period.
- DeNoised MA (Gray): An SMA of the de-noised source, reducing the effect of market noise.
4. DeNoised Price Data:
- Represented as colored circles, with blue indicating that the Normal MA is above the DeNoised MA (bullish) and red indicating the opposite (bearish).
Usage Guide:
1. Trend Identification:
- Use the Momentum line to assess overall trend direction. Positive values indicate upward momentum, while negative values signal downward momentum.
- Compare the Normal and DeNoised MAs: when the Normal MA is above the DeNoised MA, it indicates a bullish trend, and vice versa for bearish trends.
2. Entry and Exit Signals:
- A change in the Momentum line's color from blue to red (or vice versa) may indicate potential entry or exit points.
- Observe the DeNoised Price Data circles for early signs of a trend reversal based on the interaction between the Normal and DeNoised MAs.
3. Volatility and Noise Reduction:
- By utilizing the DeNoised MA and de-noised price data, this indicator helps filter out minor fluctuations and focus on larger price movements, improving decision-making in volatile markets.
RSI Swing Indicator with 200 EMAThis indicator combines a custom RSI-based swing indicator with a 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to help identify potential reversal points and confirm trend direction.
RSI Swing Indicator: It uses RSI to detect overbought and oversold conditions. When RSI reaches these extreme levels, the indicator marks "swing points" on the chart, with labels showing "HH" (Higher High) or "LH" (Lower High) for overbought and "LL" (Lower Low) or "HL" (Higher Low) for oversold, based on recent price action.
200 EMA: The 200 EMA provides a long-term trend filter. Generally, prices above the 200 EMA suggest an uptrend, while prices below indicate a downtrend. This helps traders decide whether to take trades in the direction of the larger trend.
Ido strategy RSI Oversold with MACD Buy Signal Indicator
This indicator combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) to help identify potential buy signals based on oversold conditions and trend reversals. This script is designed for traders looking to identify entry points when an asset is likely undervalued (oversold) and showing bullish momentum.
How It Works
RSI Oversold Detection: The RSI measures the speed and change of price movements. This indicator flags when the RSI falls below 30, signaling that the asset may be oversold. The user can customize the RSI lookback period and the timeframe within which oversold conditions are considered relevant.
MACD Crossover: The MACD line crossing above the Signal line often indicates a shift to bullish momentum. In this script, a buy signal is generated when a MACD bullish crossover occurs after an RSI oversold condition has been met within a user-defined lookback window.
Buy Signal: A green triangle appears below the price chart each time both conditions are met—when the RSI has recently been in oversold territory and the MACD line crosses above the Signal line. This signal suggests that the asset may be positioned for a potential upward trend, providing a visual cue for entry points.
Customizable Settings
RSI Settings: Adjust the RSI source and period length.
MACD Settings: Customize the fast, slow, and signal lengths of the MACD to suit different market conditions.
Lookback Period: Define how many bars back to check for an RSI oversold condition before confirming a MACD crossover.
Visual Elements
Oversold Background Color: The background on the price chart is shaded red whenever the RSI is below 30.
Buy Signal: A green triangle is displayed on the chart to indicate a potential entry point when both conditions are met.
Alerts
This indicator includes optional alerts, allowing traders to receive notifications whenever the conditions for a buy signal are met, making it easier to monitor multiple assets and stay informed of trading opportunities.
This indicator is ideal for traders using a combination of momentum and trend reversal strategies, especially in volatile markets where oversold conditions often precede a trend change.
RBF Kijun Trend System [InvestorUnknown]The RBF Kijun Trend System utilizes advanced mathematical techniques, including the Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel and Kijun-Sen calculations, to provide traders with a smoother trend-following experience and reduce the impact of noise in price data. This indicator also incorporates ATR to dynamically adjust smoothing and further minimize false signals.
Radial Basis Function (RBF) Kernel Smoothing
The RBF kernel is a mathematical method used to smooth the price series. By calculating weights based on the distance between data points, the RBF kernel ensures smoother transitions and a more refined representation of the price trend.
The RBF Kernel Weighted Moving Average is computed using the formula:
f_rbf_kernel(x, xi, sigma) =>
math.exp(-(math.pow(x - xi, 2)) / (2 * math.pow(sigma, 2)))
The smoothed price is then calculated as a weighted sum of past prices, using the RBF kernel weights:
f_rbf_weighted_average(src, kernel_len, sigma) =>
float total_weight = 0.0
float weighted_sum = 0.0
// Compute weights and sum for the weighted average
for i = 0 to kernel_len - 1
weight = f_rbf_kernel(kernel_len - 1, i, sigma)
total_weight := total_weight + weight
weighted_sum := weighted_sum + (src * weight)
// Check to avoid division by zero
total_weight != 0 ? weighted_sum / total_weight : na
Kijun-Sen Calculation
The Kijun-Sen, a component of Ichimoku analysis, is used here to further establish trends. The Kijun-Sen is computed as the average of the highest high and the lowest low over a specified period (default: 14 periods).
This Kijun-Sen calculation is based on the RBF-smoothed price to ensure smoother and more accurate trend detection.
f_kijun_sen(len, source) =>
math.avg(ta.lowest(source, len), ta.highest(source, len))
ATR-Adjusted RBF and Kijun-Sen
To mitigate false signals caused by price volatility, the indicator features ATR-adjusted versions of both the RBF smoothed price and Kijun-Sen.
The ATR multiplier is used to create upper and lower bounds around these lines, providing dynamic thresholds that account for market volatility.
Neutral State and Trend Continuation
This indicator can interpret a neutral state, where the signal is neither bullish nor bearish. By default, the indicator is set to interpret a neutral state as a continuation of the previous trend, though this can be adjusted to treat it as a truly neutral state.
Users can configure this setting using the signal_str input:
simple string signal_str = input.string("Continuation of Previous Trend", "Treat 0 State As", options = , group = G1)
Visual difference between "Neutral" (Bottom) and "Continuation of Previous Trend" (Top). Click on the picture to see it in full size.
Customizable Inputs and Settings:
Source Selection: Choose the input source for calculations (open, high, low, close, etc.).
Kernel Length and Sigma: Adjust the RBF kernel parameters to change the smoothing effect.
Kijun Length: Customize the lookback period for Kijun-Sen.
ATR Length and Multiplier: Modify these settings to adapt to market volatility.
Backtesting and Performance Metrics
The indicator includes a Backtest Mode, allowing users to evaluate the performance of the strategy using historical data. In Backtest Mode, a performance metrics table is generated, comparing the strategy's results to a simple buy-and-hold approach. Key metrics include mean returns, standard deviation, Sharpe ratio, and more.
Equity Calculation: The indicator calculates equity performance based on signals, comparing it against the buy-and-hold strategy.
Performance Metrics Table: Detailed performance analysis, including probabilities of positive, neutral, and negative returns.
Alerts
To keep traders informed, the indicator supports alerts for significant trend shifts:
// - - - - - ALERTS - - - - - //{
alert_source = sig
bool long_alert = ta.crossover (intrabar ? alert_source : alert_source , 0)
bool short_alert = ta.crossunder(intrabar ? alert_source : alert_source , 0)
alertcondition(long_alert, "LONG (RBF Kijun Trend System)", "RBF Kijun Trend System flipped ⬆LONG⬆")
alertcondition(short_alert, "SHORT (RBF Kijun Trend System)", "RBF Kijun Trend System flipped ⬇Short⬇")
//}
Important Notes
Calibration Needed: The default settings provided are not optimized and are intended for demonstration purposes only. Traders should adjust parameters to fit their trading style and market conditions.
Neutral State Interpretation: Users should carefully choose whether to treat the neutral state as a continuation or a separate signal.
Backtest Results: Historical performance is not indicative of future results. Market conditions change, and past trends may not recur.
