Intramarket Difference Index StrategyHi Traders !!
The IDI Strategy:
In layman’s terms this strategy compares two indicators across markets and exploits their differences.
note: it is best the two markets are correlated as then we know we are trading a short to long term deviation from both markets' general trend with the assumption both markets will trend again sometime in the future thereby exhausting our trading opportunity.
📍 Import Notes:
This Strategy calculates trade position size independently (i.e. risk per trade is controlled in the user inputs tab), this means that the ‘Order size’ input in the ‘Properties’ tab will have no effect on the strategy. Why ? because this allows us to define custom position size algorithms which we can use to improve our risk management and equity growth over time. Here we have the option to have fixed quantity or fixed percentage of equity ATR (Average True Range) based stops in addition to the turtle trading position size algorithm.
‘Pyramiding’ does not work for this strategy’, similar to the order size input togeling this input will have no effect on the strategy as the strategy explicitly defines the maximum order size to be 1.
This strategy is not perfect, and as of writing of this post I have not traded this algo.
Always take your time to backtests and debug the strategy.
🔷 The IDI Strategy:
By default this strategy pulls data from your current TV chart and then compares it to the base market, be default BINANCE:BTCUSD . The strategy pulls SMA and RSI data from either market (we call this the difference data), standardizes the data (solving the different unit problem across markets) such that it is comparable and then differentiates the data, calling the result of this transformation and difference the Intramarket Difference (ID). The formula for the the ID is
ID = market1_diff_data - market2_diff_data (1)
Where
market(i)_diff_data = diff_data / ATR(j)_market(i)^0.5,
where i = {1, 2} and j = the natural numbers excluding 0
Formula (1) interpretation is the following
When ID > 0: this means the current market outperforms the base market
When ID = 0: Markets are at long run equilibrium
When ID < 0: this means the current market underperforms the base market
To form the strategy we define one of two strategy type’s which are Trend and Mean Revesion respectively.
🔸 Trend Case:
Given the ‘‘Strategy Type’’ is equal to TREND we define a threshold for which if the ID crosses over we go long and if the ID crosses under the negative of the threshold we go short.
The motivating idea is that the ID is an indicator of the two symbols being out of sync, and given we know volatility clustering, momentum and mean reversion of anomalies to be a stylised fact of financial data we can construct a trading premise. Let's first talk more about this premise.
For some markets (cryptocurrency markets - synthetic symbols in TV) the stylised fact of momentum is true, this means that higher momentum is followed by higher momentum, and given we know momentum to be a vector quantity (with magnitude and direction) this momentum can be both positive and negative i.e. when the ID crosses above some threshold we make an assumption it will continue in that direction for some time before executing back to its long run equilibrium of 0 which is a reasonable assumption to make if the market are correlated. For example for the BTCUSD - ETHUSD pair, if the ID > +threshold (inputs for MA and RSI based ID thresholds are found under the ‘‘INTRAMARKET DIFFERENCE INDEX’’ group’), ETHUSD outperforms BTCUSD, we assume the momentum to continue so we go long ETHUSD.
In the standard case we would exit the market when the IDI returns to its long run equilibrium of 0 (for the positive case the ID may return to 0 because ETH’s difference data may have decreased or BTC’s difference data may have increased). However in this strategy we will not define this as our exit condition, why ?
This is because we want to ‘‘let our winners run’’, to achieve this we define a trailing Donchian Channel stop loss (along with a fixed ATR based stop as our volatility proxy). If we were too use the 0 exit the strategy may print a buy signal (ID > +threshold in the simple case, market regimes may be used), return to 0 and then print another buy signal, and this process can loop may times, this high trade frequency means we fail capture the entire market move lowering our profit, furthermore on lower time frames this high trade frequencies mean we pay more transaction costs (due to price slippage, commission and big-ask spread) which means less profit.
By capturing the sum of many momentum moves we are essentially following the trend hence the trend following strategy type.
Here we also print the IDI (with default strategy settings with the MA difference type), we can see that by letting our winners run we may catch many valid momentum moves, that results in a larger final pnl that if we would otherwise exit based on the equilibrium condition(Valid trades are denoted by solid green and red arrows respectively and all other valid trades which occur within the original signal are light green and red small arrows).
another example...
Note: if you would like to plot the IDI separately copy and paste the following code in a new Pine Script indicator template.

Note it is possible that after printing a buy the strategy then prints many sell signals before returning to a buy, which again has the same implication (less profit. Potentially because we exit early only for price to continue upwards hence missing the larger "trend"). The image below showcases this cenario and again, by allowing our winner to run we may capture more profit (theoretically).
This should be clear...
🔸 Mean Reversion Case:
We stated prior that mean reversion of anomalies is an standerdies fact of financial data, how can we exploit this ?
We exploit this by normalizing the ID by applying the Ehlers fisher transformation. The transformed data is then assumed to be approximately normally distributed. To form the strategy we employ the same logic as for the z score, if the FT normalized ID > 2.5 (< -2.5) we buy (short). Our exit conditions remain unchanged (fixed ATR stop and trailing Donchian Trailing stop)
🔷 Position Sizing:
If ‘‘Fixed Risk From Initial Balance’’ is toggled true this means we risk a fixed percentage of our initial balance, if false we risk a fixed percentage of our equity (current balance).
Note we also employ a volatility adjusted position sizing formula, the turtle training method which is defined as follows.
Turtle position size = (1/ r * ATR * DV) * C
Where,
r = risk factor coefficient (default is 20)
ATR(j) = risk proxy, over j times steps
DV = Dollar Volatility, where DV = (1/Asset Price) * Capital at Risk
🔷 Risk Management:
Correct money management means we can limit risk and increase reward (theoretically). Here we employ
Max loss and gain per day
Max loss per trade
Max number of consecutive losing trades until trade skip
To read more see the tooltips (info circle).
🔷 Take Profit:
By defualt the script uses a Donchain Channel as a trailing stop and take profit, In addition to this the script defines a fixed ATR stop losses (by defualt, this covers cases where the DC range may be to wide making a fixed ATR stop usefull), ATR take profits however are defined but optional.
ATR SL and TP defined for all trades
🔷 Hurst Regime (Regime Filter):
The Hurst Exponent (H) aims to segment the market into three different states, Trending (H > 0.5), Random Geometric Brownian Motion (H = 0.5) and Mean Reverting / Contrarian (H < 0.5). In my interpretation this can be used as a trend filter that eliminates market noise.
We utilize the trending and mean reverting based states, as extra conditions required for valid trades for both strategy types respectively, in the process increasing our trade entry quality.

Here is an example of one configuration of this strategy, combining all aspects discussed in this post.

TrendFusion [CrypTolqa]This code colors the SMA line red when the RSI is below 50 and the CCI is below 0, and green when the RSI is above 50 and the CCI is above 0. For cases that do not meet the specified details, the line is displayed in gray.
RSI Divergence and GradientThe RSI Divergence and Gradient Indicator simplifies the process of identifying the relationship between price action and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). By integrating RSI data directly into the price chart, traders no longer need to open a separate pane to monitor RSI or manually compare price action and RSI.
This indicator allows traders to easily spot overbought or oversold conditions and detect divergences between price and RSI. These signals can help identify potential reversal points and more effectively assess trend strength.
Features
RSI Divergences: The script identifies and plots bullish and bearish RSI divergences, which can signal potential reversals. Bullish divergences are indicated by an upward triangle below the price bars, while bearish divergences are indicated by a downward triangle above the price bars.
Overbought/Oversold Gradient: The script uses a color gradient to highlight overbought and oversold conditions on the chart, helping traders visualize momentum and trend strength. The gradient dynamically adjusts based on RSI values, transitioning through different colors to represent the intensity of overbought or oversold conditions.
Customizable Gradient: The gradient is customizable, allowing traders to set their own thresholds for overbought and oversold levels, and to choose the colors that best suit their trading style. This flexibility ensures the indicator can be tailored to individual preferences.
How It Works
RSI Calculation: The indicator calculates RSI using the standard 14-period length by default, but this can be adjusted to suit the trader's needs.
Divergence Detection: The script identifies divergences by comparing the highest and lowest points of the RSI with the corresponding price levels over the RSI period length. When a divergence is detected, it is plotted on the chart to indicate a potential reversal.
Gradient Coloring: The gradient coloring system changes the bar colors based on RSI levels. The color transitions from a neutral tone to specified start and end colors as RSI approaches overbought or oversold thresholds, providing a visual cue for potential overextended market conditions.
Intended Use
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who want to combine momentum analysis with divergence signals to identify potential reversal points or confirm trend strength. The visual gradient aids in quickly assessing market conditions, making it easier to spot high-probability trading opportunities.
DEMA Adaptive DMI [BackQuant]DEMA Adaptive DMI
PLEASE Read the following, knowing what an indicator does at its core before adding it into a system is pivotal. The core concepts can allow you to include it in a logical and sound manner.
Conceptual Foundation and Innovation
The DEMA Adaptive DMI blends the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) with the Directional Movement Index (DMI) to offer a unique approach to trend-following. By applying DEMA to the high and low prices, this indicator refines the traditional DMI calculation, enhancing its responsiveness to price changes. This results in a more adaptive and timely measure of market trends and momentum, providing traders with a more refined tool for capturing directional movements in the market.
Technical Composition and Calculation
At its core, the DEMA Adaptive DMI calculates the DEMA for both the high and low prices over a user-defined period. This dual application of DEMA serves to smooth out price fluctuations while retaining sensitivity to market movements. The DMI is then derived from the changes in these DEMA values, producing a set of plus and minus directional indicators that reflect the prevailing trend. Additionally, an Average Directional Index (ADX) is computed to measure the strength of the trend, with the entire process being dynamically adjusted based on the DEMA calculations.
DEMA Application:
The DEMA is applied to both high and low prices to reduce lag and provide a smoother representation of price action.
Directional Movement Calculation: The DMI is calculated using the smoothed price changes, resulting in plus and minus indicators that accurately reflect market trends.
ADX Calculation:
The ADX is computed to quantify the strength of the trend, offering traders insight into whether the market is trending strongly or is in a phase of consolidation.
Features and User Inputs The DEMA Adaptive DMI offers a range of customizable options to suit different trading styles and market conditions:
DEMA Calculation Period: Users can set the period for the DEMA calculation, allowing for adjustments based on the desired sensitivity.
DMI Length: The length of the DMI calculation can be adjusted, providing flexibility in how trends are measured.
ADX Smoothing Period: The smoothing period for the ADX can be customized to fine-tune the trend strength measurement.
Divergence Detection: Optional divergence detection features allow traders to spot potential reversals based on the DMI and price action.
Visualization options include static high and low levels to mark extreme DMI thresholds, the ability to color bars according to trend direction, and background hues to highlight overbought and oversold conditions.
Practical Applications
The DEMA Adaptive DMI is particularly effective in markets where trend strength and direction are crucial for successful trading. Traders can leverage this indicator to:
Identify Trend Reversals:
Detect potential trend reversals by monitoring the DMI and ADX in conjunction with divergence signals.
Trend Confirmation:
Use the DEMA-based DMI to confirm the strength and direction of a trend, aiding in the timing of entries and exits.
Strategic Positioning:
The indicator's responsiveness allows traders to position themselves effectively in fast-moving markets, reducing the risk of late entries or exits.
Advantages and Strategic Value
By integrating the DEMA with the DMI, this indicator provides a more adaptive and timely measure of market trends. The reduced lag from the DEMA ensures that traders receive signals that are closely aligned with current market conditions, while the dynamic DMI calculation offers a more accurate representation of trend direction and strength. This makes the DEMA Adaptive DMI a valuable tool for traders looking to enhance their trend-following strategies with a focus on precision and adaptability.
Summary and Usage Tips
The DEMA Adaptive DMI is a sophisticated trend-following indicator that combines the benefits of DEMA and DMI into a single, powerful tool. Traders are encouraged to incorporate this indicator into their trading systems for a more nuanced and responsive approach to trend detection and confirmation. Whether used for identifying trend reversals, confirming trend strength, or strategically positioning in the market, the DEMA Adaptive DMI offers a versatile and reliable solution for trend-following strategies.

Uptrick: DPO Signal & Zone Indicator
## **Uptrick: DPO Signal & Zone Indicator**
### **Introduction:**
The **Uptrick: DPO Signal & Zone Indicator** is a sophisticated technical analysis tool tailored to provide insights into market momentum, identify potential trading signals, and recognize extreme market conditions. It leverages the Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) to strip out long-term trends from price movements, allowing traders to focus on short-term fluctuations and cyclical behavior. The indicator integrates multiple components, including a Detrended Price Oscillator, a Signal Line, a Histogram, and customizable alert levels, to deliver a robust framework for market analysis and trading decision-making.
### **Detailed Breakdown:**
#### **1. Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO):**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- The DPO is designed to filter out long-term trends from the price data, isolating short-term price movements. This helps in understanding the cyclical patterns and momentum of an asset, allowing traders to detect periods of acceleration or deceleration that might be overlooked when focusing solely on long-term trends.
- **Calculation:**
- **Formula:** `dpo = close - ta.sma(close, smaLength)`
- **`close`:** The asset’s closing price for each period in the dataset.
- **`ta.sma(close, smaLength)`:** The Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing prices over a period defined by `smaLength`.
- The DPO is derived by subtracting the SMA value from the current closing price. This calculation reveals how much the current price deviates from the moving average, effectively detrending the price data.
- **Interpretation:**
- **Positive DPO Values:** Indicate that the current price is higher than the moving average, suggesting bullish market conditions and a potential upward trend.
- **Negative DPO Values:** Indicate that the current price is lower than the moving average, suggesting bearish market conditions and a potential downward trend.
- **Magnitude of DPO:** Reflects the strength of momentum. Larger positive or negative values suggest stronger momentum in the respective direction.
#### **2. Signal Line:**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- The Signal Line is a smoothed average of the DPO, intended to act as a reference point for generating trading signals. It helps to filter out short-term fluctuations and provides a clearer perspective on the prevailing trend.
- **Calculation:**
- **Formula:** `signalLine = ta.sma(dpo, signalLength)`
- **`ta.sma(dpo, signalLength)`:** The SMA of the DPO values over a period defined by `signalLength`.
- The Signal Line is calculated by applying a moving average to the DPO values. This smoothing process reduces noise and highlights the underlying trend direction.
- **Interpretation:**
- **DPO Crossing Above Signal Line:** Generates a buy signal, suggesting that short-term momentum is turning bullish relative to the longer-term trend.
- **DPO Crossing Below Signal Line:** Generates a sell signal, suggesting that short-term momentum is turning bearish relative to the longer-term trend.
- **Signal Line’s Role:** Provides a benchmark for assessing the strength of the DPO. The interaction between the DPO and the Signal Line offers actionable insights into potential entry or exit points.
#### **3. Histogram:**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- The Histogram visualizes the difference between the DPO and the Signal Line. It provides a graphical representation of momentum strength and direction, allowing traders to quickly gauge market conditions.
- **Calculation:**
- **Formula:** `histogram = dpo - signalLine`
- The Histogram is computed by subtracting the Signal Line value from the DPO value. Positive values indicate that the DPO is above the Signal Line, while negative values indicate that the DPO is below the Signal Line.
- **Interpretation:**
- **Color Coding:**
- **Green Bars:** Represent positive values, indicating bullish momentum.
- **Red Bars:** Represent negative values, indicating bearish momentum.
- **Width of Bars:** Indicates the strength of momentum. Wider bars signify stronger momentum, while narrower bars suggest weaker momentum.
- **Zero Line:** A horizontal gray line that separates positive and negative histogram values. Crosses of the histogram through this zero line can signal shifts in momentum direction.
#### **4. Alert Levels:**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- Alert levels define specific thresholds to identify extreme market conditions, such as overbought and oversold states. These levels help traders recognize potential reversal points and extreme market conditions.
- **Inputs:**
- **`alertLevel1`:** Defines the upper threshold for identifying overbought conditions.
- **Default Value:** 0.5
- **`alertLevel2`:** Defines the lower threshold for identifying oversold conditions.
- **Default Value:** -0.5
- **Interpretation:**
- **Overbought Condition:** When the DPO exceeds `alertLevel1`, indicating that the market may be overbought. This condition suggests that the asset could be due for a correction or reversal.
- **Oversold Condition:** When the DPO falls below `alertLevel2`, indicating that the market may be oversold. This condition suggests that the asset could be poised for a rebound or reversal.
#### **5. Visual Elements:**
- **DPO and Signal Line Plots:**
- **DPO Plot:**
- **Color:** Blue
- **Width:** 2 pixels
- **Purpose:** To visually represent the deviation of the current price from the moving average.
- **Signal Line Plot:**
- **Color:** Red
- **Width:** 1 pixel
- **Purpose:** To provide a smoothed reference for the DPO and generate trading signals.
- **Histogram Plot:**
- **Color Coding:**
- **Green:** For positive values, signaling bullish momentum.
- **Red:** For negative values, signaling bearish momentum.
- **Style:** Histogram bars are displayed with varying width to represent the strength of momentum.
- **Zero Line:** A gray horizontal line separating positive and negative histogram values.
- **Overbought/Oversold Zones:**
- **Background Colors:**
- **Green Shading:** Applied when the DPO exceeds `alertLevel1`, indicating an overbought condition.
- **Red Shading:** Applied when the DPO falls below `alertLevel2`, indicating an oversold condition.
- **Horizontal Lines:**
- **Dotted Green Line:** At `alertLevel1`, marking the upper alert threshold.
- **Dotted Red Line:** At `alertLevel2`, marking the lower alert threshold.
- **Purpose:** To provide clear visual cues for extreme market conditions, aiding in the identification of potential reversal points.
#### **6. Trading Signals and Alerts:**
- **Buy Signal:**
- **Trigger:** When the DPO crosses above the Signal Line.
- **Visual Representation:** A "BUY" label appears below the price bar in the specified buy color.
- **Purpose:** Indicates a potential buying opportunity as short-term momentum turns bullish.
- **Sell Signal:**
- **Trigger:** When the DPO crosses below the Signal Line.
- **Visual Representation:** A "SELL" label appears above the price bar in the specified sell color.
- **Purpose:** Indicates a potential selling opportunity as short-term momentum turns bearish.
- **Overbought/Oversold Alerts:**
- **Overbought Alert:** Triggered when the DPO crosses below `alertLevel1`.
- **Oversold Alert:** Triggered when the DPO crosses above `alertLevel2`.
- **Visual Representation:** Labels "OVERBOUGHT" and "OVERSOLD" appear with distinctive colors and sizes to highlight extreme conditions.
- **Purpose:** To signal potential reversal points and extreme market conditions that may lead to price corrections or trend reversals.
- **Alert Conditions:**
- **DPO Cross Above Signal Line:** Alerts traders when the DPO crosses above the Signal Line, generating a buy signal.
- **DPO Cross Below Signal Line:** Alerts traders when the DPO crosses below the Signal Line, generating a sell signal.
- **DPO Above Upper Alert Level:** Alerts when the DPO is above `alertLevel1`, indicating an overbought condition.
- **DPO Below Lower Alert Level:** Alerts when the DPO is below `alertLevel2`, indicating an oversold condition.
- **Purpose:** To provide real-time notifications of significant market events, enabling traders to make informed decisions promptly.
### **Practical Applications:**
#### **1. Trend Following Strategies:**
- **Objective:**
- To capture and ride the prevailing market trends by entering trades that align with the direction of the momentum.
- **How to Use:**
- Monitor buy and sell signals generated by the DPO crossing the Signal Line. A buy signal suggests a bullish trend and a potential long trade, while a sell signal suggests a bearish trend and a potential short trade.
- Use the Histogram to confirm the strength of the trend. Expanding green bars indicate strong bullish momentum, while expanding red bars indicate strong bearish momentum.
- **Advantages:**
- Helps traders stay aligned with the market trend, increasing the likelihood of capturing substantial price moves.
#### **2. Reversal Trading:**
- **Objective:**
- To identify potential market reversals
by detecting overbought and oversold conditions.
- **How to Use:**
- Look for overbought and oversold signals based on the DPO crossing `alertLevel1` and `alertLevel2`. These conditions suggest that the market may be due for a reversal.
- Confirm reversal signals with the Histogram. A decrease in histogram bars (from green to red or vice versa) may support the reversal hypothesis.
- **Advantages:**
- Provides early warnings of potential market reversals, allowing traders to position themselves before significant price changes occur.
#### **3. Momentum Analysis:**
- **Objective:**
- To gauge the strength and direction of market momentum for making informed trading decisions.

Uptrick: TimeFrame Trends: Performance & Sentiment Indicator### **Uptrick: TimeFrame Trends: Performance & Sentiment Indicator (TFT) - In-Depth Explanation**
#### **Overview**
The **Uptrick: TimeFrame Trends: Performance & Sentiment Indicator (TFT)** is a sophisticated trading tool designed to provide traders with a comprehensive view of market trends across multiple timeframes, combined with a sentiment gauge through the Relative Strength Index (RSI). This indicator offers a unique blend of performance analysis, sentiment evaluation, and visual signal generation, making it an invaluable resource for traders who seek to understand both the macro and micro trends within a financial instrument.
#### **Purpose**
The primary purpose of the TFT indicator is to empower traders with the ability to assess the performance of an asset over various timeframes while simultaneously gauging market sentiment through the RSI. By analyzing price changes over periods ranging from one week to one year, and complementing this with sentiment signals, TFT enables traders to make informed decisions based on a well-rounded analysis of historical price performance and current market conditions.
#### **Key Components and Features**
1. **Multi-Timeframe Performance Analysis:**
- **Performance Lookback Periods:**
- The TFT indicator calculates the percentage price change over several predefined timeframes: 7 days (1 week), 14 days (2 weeks), 30 days (1 month), 180 days (6 months), and 365 days (1 year). These timeframes provide a layered view of how an asset has performed over short, medium, and long-term periods.
- **Percentage Change Calculation:**
- The indicator computes the percentage change for each timeframe by comparing the current closing price to the closing price at the start of each period. This gives traders insight into the strength and direction of the trend over different periods, helping them identify consistent trends or potential reversals.
2. **Sentiment Analysis Using RSI:**
- **Relative Strength Index (RSI):**
- RSI is a widely-used momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It oscillates between 0 and 100 and is typically used to identify overbought or oversold conditions. In TFT, the RSI is calculated using a 14-period lookback, which is standard for most RSI implementations.
- **RSI Smoothing with EMA:**
- To refine the RSI signal and reduce noise, TFT applies a 10-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to the RSI values. This smoothed RSI is then used to generate buy, sell, and neutral signals based on its position relative to the 50 level:
- **Buy Signal:** Triggered when the smoothed RSI crosses above 50, indicating bullish sentiment.
- **Sell Signal:** Triggered when the smoothed RSI crosses below 50, indicating bearish sentiment.
- **Neutral Signal:** Triggered when the smoothed RSI equals 50, suggesting indecision or a balanced market.
3. **Visual Signal Generation:**
- **Signal Plots:**
- TFT provides clear visual cues directly on the price chart by plotting shapes at the points where buy, sell, or neutral signals are generated. These shapes are color-coded (green for buy, red for sell, yellow for neutral) and are positioned below or above the price bars for easy identification.
- **First Occurrence Trigger:**
- To avoid clutter and focus on significant market shifts, TFT only triggers the first occurrence of each signal type. This feature helps traders concentrate on the most relevant signals without being overwhelmed by repeated alerts.
4. **Customizable Performance & Sentiment Table:**
- **Table Display:**
- The TFT indicator includes a customizable table that displays the calculated percentage changes for each timeframe. This table is positioned on the chart according to user preference (top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right) and provides a quick reference to the asset’s performance across multiple periods.
- **Dynamic Text Color:**
- To enhance readability and provide immediate visual feedback, the text color in the table changes based on the direction of the percentage change: green for positive (upward movement) and red for negative (downward movement). This color-coding helps traders quickly assess whether the asset is in an uptrend or downtrend for each period.
- **Customizable Font Size:**
- Traders can adjust the font size of the table to fit their chart layout and personal preferences, ensuring that the information is accessible without being intrusive.
5. **Flexibility and Customization:**
- **Lookback Period Customization:**
- While the default lookback periods are set for common trading intervals (7 days, 14 days, etc.), these can be adjusted to match different trading strategies or market conditions. This flexibility allows traders to tailor the indicator to focus on the timeframes most relevant to their analysis.
- **RSI and EMA Settings:**
- The length of the RSI calculation and the smoothing EMA can also be customized. This is particularly useful for traders who prefer shorter or longer periods for their momentum analysis, allowing them to fine-tune the sensitivity of the indicator.
- **Table Position and Appearance:**
- The table’s position on the chart, along with its font size and colors, is fully customizable. This ensures that the indicator can be integrated seamlessly into any chart setup without obstructing key price data.
#### **Use Cases and Applications**
1. **Trend Identification and Confirmation:**
- **Short-Term Traders:**
- Traders focused on short-term movements can use the 7-day and 14-day performance metrics to identify recent trends and momentum shifts. The RSI signals provide additional confirmation, helping traders enter or exit positions based on the latest market sentiment.
- **Swing Traders:**
- For those holding positions over days to weeks, the 30-day and 180-day performance data are particularly useful. These metrics highlight medium-term trends, and when combined with RSI signals, they provide a robust framework for swing trading strategies.
- **Long-Term Investors:**
- Long-term investors can benefit from the 1-year performance data to gauge the overall health and direction of an asset. The indicator’s ability to track performance across different periods helps in identifying long-term trends and potential reversal points.
2. **Sentiment Analysis and Market Timing:**
- **Market Sentiment Tracking:**
- By using RSI in conjunction with performance metrics, TFT provides a clear picture of market sentiment. Traders can use this information to time their entries and exits more effectively, aligning their trades with periods of strong bullish or bearish sentiment.
- **Avoiding False Signals:**
- The smoothing of RSI helps reduce noise and avoid false signals that are common in volatile markets. This makes the TFT indicator a reliable tool for identifying true market trends and avoiding whipsaws that can lead to losses.
3. **Comprehensive Market Analysis:**
- **Multi-Timeframe Analysis:**
- TFT’s ability to analyze multiple timeframes simultaneously makes it an excellent tool for comprehensive market analysis. Traders can compare short-term and long-term performance to understand the broader market context, making it easier to align their trading strategies with the overall trend.
- **Performance Benchmarking:**
- The percentage change metrics provide a clear benchmark for an asset’s performance over time. This information can be used to compare the asset against broader market indices or other assets, helping traders make more informed decisions about where to allocate their capital.
4. **Custom Strategy Development:**
- **Tailoring to Specific Markets:**
- TFT can be customized to suit different markets, whether it’s stocks, forex, commodities, or cryptocurrencies. For instance, traders in volatile markets may opt for shorter lookback periods and more sensitive RSI settings, while those in stable markets may prefer longer periods for a smoother analysis.
- **Integrating with Other Indicators:**
- TFT can be used alongside other technical indicators to create a more comprehensive trading strategy. For example, combining TFT with moving averages, Bollinger Bands, or MACD can provide additional layers of confirmation and reduce the likelihood of false signals.
#### **Best Practices for Using TFT**
- **Regularly Adjust Lookback Periods:**
- Depending on the market conditions and the asset being traded, it’s important to regularly review and adjust the lookback periods for the performance metrics. This ensures that the indicator remains relevant and responsive to current market trends.
- **Combine with Volume Analysis:**
- While TFT provides a solid foundation for trend and sentiment analysis, combining it with volume indicators can further enhance its effectiveness. Volume can confirm the strength of a trend or signal potential reversals when divergences occur.
- **Use RSI with Other Momentum Indicators:**
- Although RSI is a powerful tool on its own, using it alongside other momentum indicators like Stochastic Oscillator or MACD can provide additional confirmation and help refine entry and exit points.
- **Customize Table Settings for Clarity:**
- Ensure that the performance table is positioned and sized appropriately on the chart. It should be easily readable without obstructing important price data. Adjust the text size and colors as needed to maintain clarity.
- **Monitor Multiple Timeframes:**
- Utilize the multi-timeframe analysis feature of TFT to monitor trends across different periods. This helps in identifying the dominant trend and avoiding trades that go against the broader market direction.
#### **Conclusion**
The **Uptrick: TimeFrame Trends: Performance & Sentiment Indicator (TFT)** is a comprehensive and versatile tool that combines the power of multi-timeframe performance analysis with sentiment gauging through RSI. Its ability to customize and adapt to various trading strategies and markets makes it a valuable asset for traders at all levels.

Trend and RSI Bias FusionTrend and RSI Bias Fusion Indicator
This is my first ever indicator. I created this indicator for myself. I was inspired by the indicators created by Bjorgum, Duyck and QuantTherapy and decided to create multiple indicators that either work well combined with their indicators or something new that applies some of their indicator concepts. I decided to share this because I believe in learning and earing together as a community. I will later share the rest of the indicators I have created. This is my first time ever sharing any indicator so if you guys have any questions or suggestions write them.
Overview
The "Trend and RSI Bias Fusion" indicator is a versatile tool designed to help traders identify key market trends, potential reversals, momentum shifts, and RSI-based pullbacks. This indicator fuses trend analysis and RSI bias into a single, comprehensive visual, making it easier to make informed trading decisions across various timeframes and market conditions.
Features
Dual Timeframe Analysis: Combines trend analysis on a higher timeframe (e.g., Daily) with RSI analysis on a lower timeframe (e.g., 4-Hour), providing a more granular view of market conditions. You can, however, choose any timeframe you want for instance 12hr with trend and 2hr RSI analysis.
Trend and Momentum Visualization: The indicator uses Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to determine trend direction and colors the chart background to reflect bullish or bearish trends, along with momentum strength.
RSI Bias Detection: Automatically identifies overbought and oversold conditions using the RSI, providing a clear indication of potential market reversals or continuations.
Color-Coded Bars: Optionally color codes bars based on either trend direction or RSI bias, giving you a quick visual cue of the market's state.
Reversal Markers: Displays trend reversal markers on the chart when the short-term EMA crosses over or under the long-term EMA.
Calculation Details
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): The indicator calculates short-term and long-term EMAs using the closing prices.
The crossover between these EMAs is used to determine the trend direction:
Short-Term EMA: Typically a 14-period EMA.
Long-Term EMA: Typically a 50-period EMA.
Momentum: Calculated using the RSI and then centered around zero by subtracting 50. This allows the indicator to distinguish between positive and negative momentum.
RSI Bias: The RSI is calculated on a lower timeframe to detect overbought (above 60) and oversold (below 40) conditions, which are used to determine the bias:
RSI Above 60: Indicates potential overbought conditions (bearish bias).
RSI Below 40: Indicates potential oversold conditions (bullish bias).
How to Use the Indicator
Select Your Timeframes: Choose your preferred trend timeframe (e.g., Daily) and RSI timeframe (e.g., 4-2 Hour) in the indicator settings. These should match your trading strategy and the asset class you're analyzing.
Interpret Trend and Momentum
Background Color: The background color reflects the current trend direction:
Green/Lime: Uptrend, with lime indicating positive momentum.
Red/Maroon: Downtrend, with maroon indicating positive momentum within a downtrend.
Momentum Histogram: The histogram plot shows momentum, color-coded by the trend. A histogram above zero with green/lime indicates bullish momentum, while below zero with red/maroon indicates bearish momentum.
Image above: Both RSI and Trend are set to daily, uses RSI bar color
Read RSI Bias:
The RSI bias line helps identify the current market state relative to overbought or oversold levels. The RSI value is plotted on the chart, with lines at 60 and 40 to mark these levels.
When the RSI crosses above 60, it suggests a bearish bias; crossing below 40 suggests a bullish bias.
Use Reversal Markers: The indicator places small circles on the chart at points where the short-term EMA crosses the long-term EMA, signaling potential trend reversals.
Bar Color Customization:
You can choose to color the bars based on either the trend or the RSI bias in the indicator settings. In the Images below I have changed the colors to fit my personal style , Blue for uptrend and Pink for downtrend:
Trend-Based: Bars will reflect the trend direction (green for uptrend or in this case blue, red for downtrend or in this case pink).
RSI-Based: Bars will reflect RSI conditions (yellow for overbought, maroon for oversold).
Image above: RSI is set to 4hr and Trend is set to daily, uses RSI bar color
Image above: RSI is set to 4hr and Trend is set to daily, uses Trend bar color
Image above: Both RSI and Trend are set to daily, uses RSI bar color
Image above: Both RSI and Trend are set to daily, uses Trend bar color
Image above: Both RSI and Trend are set to daily, without bar color
Image above: Both RSI and Trend are set to daily, how it looks on a clean chart
Example Use Case Swing Traders:
For instance, if you're trading a 4-hour chart of USDCHF:
Set the trend timeframe to Daily and the RSI timeframe to 4-Hour.
Watch for background color shifts and reversal markers to determine trend direction.
Use RSI bias to time your entries and exits, especially around overbought/oversold levels.
Enable bar coloring to quickly see when conditions favor either trend continuation or reversal.
This indicator is particularly effective for swing traders and those who want to align their trades with higher timeframe trends while using momentum and RSI for entry and exit signals.
For Day Traders
Timeframe Selection:
Trend Timeframe: Set to a higher intraday timeframe such as the 1 or 2 Hour chart.
RSI Timeframe: Set to a shorter timeframe like 15-10 Minutes or 5-Minutes to capture finer details of intraday momentum shifts.
Using the Indicator:
Trend Identification: Day traders can use the background color to quickly identify whether the market is in a bullish or bearish trend on the 1-Hour chart. A green background suggests looking for long opportunities, while a red background suggests short opportunities.
Momentum Analysis: The histogram can help day traders gauge the strength of the current trend. For example, if the histogram is green and above zero, the trader may consider buying pullbacks within the trend.
RSI Bias: Monitor RSI levels on the lower timeframe (e.g., 15-Minutes). If the RSI crosses below 40, it indicates an oversold condition, potentially signaling a buying opportunity, especially if it aligns with a bullish trend on the higher timeframe.
Trade Execution:
Look for entries when the RSI shows a reversal or pullback in the direction of the higher timeframe trend.
Use the trend reversal markers to confirm potential intraday reversals, adding extra confidence to trade setups.
For Scalpers
Timeframe Selection:
Trend Timeframe: Set to a short intraday timeframe like 15-Minutes or 5-Minutes.
RSI Timeframe: Use an even shorter timeframe, such as 1-Minute, to capture rapid price movements.
Final Notes:
The "Trend and RSI Bias Fusion" indicator is a powerful tool that combines trend analysis, momentum assessment, and RSI insights into one cohesive package. By integrating these different aspects, the indicator helps traders navigate complex market environments with greater clarity and confidence. Customize the settings to fit your specific trading style and market and use it to stay ahead of market trends and potential reversals.

RSI Momentum [CrossTrade]The RSI Momentum indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI) crossing specific thresholds. The Key difference is that we're using RSI overbought and oversold readings as the foundation for finding continuation signals in the same direction of that momentum. This solves the issue of trying to buy the bottom or sell the top and offsets any oscillators main weakness, divergence and false signals in a strong trend.
Key Parameters:
RSI Length: Determines the calculation period for the RSI.
Overbought Threshold: The RSI level above which the asset is considered overbought.
Momentum Loss Threshold for Buy: The RSI level below which a loss in upward momentum is indicated, triggering a potential buy signal.
Oversold Threshold: The RSI level below which the asset is considered oversold.
Momentum Loss Threshold for Sell: The RSI level above which a loss in downward momentum is indicated, triggering a potential sell signal.
Allow Additional Retracement Signals: A toggle to allow more than one signal within a certain number of bars after the first signal.
Max Additional Signals: The maximum number of additional signals allowed after the first signal.
Buy Signal Logic:
Initial Signal: Generated when the RSI first exceeds the overbought threshold and then falls below the momentum loss buy threshold. Defaults are 70 for the overbought threshold and 60 for the retracement level.
Additional Signals for Deeper Retracements: If enabled, the script shows additional buy signals within the maximum limit set by Max Additional Signals. These additional signals are shown only if each new signal's bar has a lower low than the previous signal's bar.
Sell Signal Logic:
Initial Signal: Similar to the buy signal, a sell signal is generated when the RSI first drops below the oversold threshold and then rises above the momentum loss sell threshold. Defaults are 30 for the oversold threshold and 40 for the retracement level.
Additional Signals for Deeper Retracements: If enabled, additional sell signals are shown, limited by Max Additional Signals, and only if each new signal's bar has a higher high than the previous signal's bar.
Continuation Signals in Strong Trends:
The script allows for a new series of signals (starting with the first signal again) when the RSI pattern repeats. For buy signals, this means going above the overbought and then below the momentum loss buy threshold. For sell signals, it's dropping below oversold and then above the momentum loss sell threshold.
Alerts:
The script includes alert conditions for both buy and sell signals, which can be configured in the TradingView alerts.

## 1. Introduction to the RSI and Moving Averages
### **1.1 Relative Strength Index (RSI)**
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator developed by J. Welles Wilder and introduced in his 1978 book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems." It is widely used in technical analysis to measure the speed and change of price movements.
**Purpose of RSI:**
- **Identify Overbought/Oversold Conditions:** RSI values range from 0 to 100. Traditionally, values above 70 are considered overbought, while values below 30 are considered oversold. These thresholds help traders identify potential reversal points in the market.
- **Trend Strength Measurement:** RSI also indicates the strength of a trend. High RSI values suggest strong bullish momentum, while low values indicate bearish momentum.
**Calculation of RSI:**
1. **Calculate the Average Gain and Loss:** Over a specified period (e.g., 14 days), calculate the average gain and loss.
2. **Compute the Relative Strength (RS):** RS is the ratio of average gain to average loss.
3. **RSI Formula:** RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
### **1.2 Moving Averages (MA)**
Moving Averages are used to smooth out price data and identify trends by filtering out short-term fluctuations. Two common types are:
**Simple Moving Average (SMA):** The average of prices over a specified number of periods.
**Exponential Moving Average (EMA):** A type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to recent price changes.
**Smoothed Moving Average (SMA):** Used to reduce the impact of volatility and provide a clearer view of the underlying trend. The RMA, or Running Moving Average, used in the USH script is similar to an EMA but based on the average of RSI values.
## 2. Detailed Breakdown of the Uptrick: RSI Histogram
### **2.1 Indicator Overview**
The Uptrick: RSI Histogram (USH) is a technical analysis tool that combines the RSI with a moving average to create a histogram that reflects momentum and trend strength.
**Key Components:**
- **RSI Calculation:** Determines the relative strength of price movements.
- **Moving Average Application:** Smooths the RSI values to provide a clearer trend indication.
- **Histogram Plotting:** Visualizes the deviation of the smoothed RSI from a neutral level.
### **2.2 Indicator Purpose**
The primary purpose of the USH is to provide a clear visual representation of the market's momentum and trend strength. It helps traders identify:
- **Bullish and Bearish Trends:** By showing how far the smoothed RSI is from the neutral 50 level.
- **Potential Reversal Points:** By highlighting changes in momentum.
### **2.3 Indicator Design**
**RSI Moving Average (RSI MA):** The RSI MA is a smoothed version of the RSI, calculated using a running moving average. This smooths out short-term fluctuations and provides a clearer indication of the underlying trend.
**Histogram Calculation:**
- **Neutral Level:** The histogram is plotted relative to the neutral level of 50. This level represents a balanced market where neither bulls nor bears have dominance.
- **Histogram Values:** The histogram bars show the difference between the RSI MA and the neutral level. Positive values indicate bullish momentum, while negative values indicate bearish momentum.
## 3. Calculation and Formula
### **3.1 RSI Calculation**
The RSI calculation involves:
1. **Average Gain and Loss:** Calculated over the specified length (e.g., 14 periods).
2. **Relative Strength (RS):** RS = Average Gain / Average Loss.
3. **RSI Formula:** RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS)).
### **3.2 Moving Average Calculation**
For the USH indicator, the RSI is smoothed using a running moving average (RMA). The RMA formula is similar to that of the EMA but is based on averaging RSI values over the specified length.
### **3.3 Histogram Calculation**
The histogram value is calculated as:
- **Histogram Value = RSI MA - 50**
**Plotting the Histogram:**
- **Positive Histogram Values:** Indicate that the RSI MA is above the neutral level, suggesting bullish momentum.
- **Negative Histogram Values:** Indicate that the RSI MA is below the neutral level, suggesting bearish momentum.
## 4. Visual Representation
### **4.1 Histogram Bars**
The histogram is plotted as bars on the chart:
- **Bullish Bars:** Colored green when the RSI MA is above 50.
- **Bearish Bars:** Colored red when the RSI MA is below 50.
### **4.2 Customization Options**
Traders can customize:
- **RSI Length:** Adjust the length of the RSI calculation to match their trading style.
- **Bull and Bear Colors:** Choose colors for histogram bars to enhance visual clarity.
### **4.3 Interpretation**
**Bullish Signal:** A histogram bar that moves from red to green indicates a potential shift to a bullish trend.
**Bearish Signal:** A histogram bar that moves from green to red indicates a potential shift to a bearish trend.
## 5. Customization and User Settings
### **5.1 Adjusting RSI Length**
The length parameter determines the number of periods over which the RSI is calculated and smoothed. Shorter lengths make the RSI more sensitive to price changes, while longer lengths provide a smoother view of trends.
### **5.2 Color Settings**
Traders can adjust:
- **Bull Color:** Color of histogram bars indicating bullish momentum.
- **Bear Color:** Color of histogram bars indicating bearish momentum.
**Customization Benefits:**
- **Visual Clarity:** Traders can choose colors that stand out against their chart’s background.
- **Personal Preference:** Adjust settings to match individual trading styles and preferences.
## 6. Trading Strategies and Applications
### **6.1 Trend Following**
**Identifying Entry Points:**
- **Bullish Entry:** When the histogram changes from red to green, it signals a potential entry point for long positions.
- **Bearish Entry:** When the histogram changes from green to red, it signals a potential entry point for short positions.
**Trend Confirmation:** The histogram helps confirm the strength of a trend. Strong, consistent green bars indicate robust bullish momentum, while strong, consistent red bars indicate robust bearish momentum.
### **6.2 Swing Trading**
**Momentum Analysis:**
- **Entry Signals:** Look for significant shifts in the histogram to time entries. A shift from bearish to bullish (red to green) indicates potential for upward movement.
- **Exit Signals:** A shift from bullish to bearish (green to red) suggests a potential weakening of the trend, signaling an exit or reversal point.
### **6.3 Range Trading**
**Market Conditions:**
- **Consolidation:** The histogram close to zero suggests a range-bound market. Traders can use this information to identify support and resistance levels.
- **Breakout Potential:** A significant move away from the neutral level may indicate a potential breakout from the range.
### **6.4 Risk Management**
**Stop-Loss Placement:**
- **Bullish Positions:** Place stop-loss orders below recent support levels when the histogram is green.
- **Bearish Positions:** Place stop-loss orders above recent resistance levels when the histogram is red.
**Position Sizing:** Adjust position sizes based on the strength of the histogram signals. Strong trends (indicated by larger histogram bars) may warrant larger positions, while weaker signals suggest smaller positions.
## 7. Risk Management
### **7.1 Importance of Risk Management**
Effective risk management is crucial for long-term trading success. It involves protecting capital, managing losses, and optimizing trade setups.
### **7.2 Using USH for Risk Management**
**Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Levels:**
- **Stop-Loss Orders:** Use the histogram to set stop-loss levels based on trend strength. For instance, place stops below support levels in bullish trends and above resistance levels in bearish trends.
- **Take-Profit Targets:** Adjust take-profit levels based on histogram changes. For example, lock in profits as the histogram starts to shift from green to red.
**Position Sizing:**
- **Trend Strength:** Scale position sizes based on the strength of histogram signals. Larger histogram bars indicate stronger trends, which may justify larger positions.
- **Volatility:** Consider market volatility and adjust position sizes to mitigate risk.
## 8. Case Studies and Examples
### **8.1 Example 1: Bullish Trend**
**Scenario:** A trader notices a transition from red to green histogram bars.
**Analysis:**
- **Entry Point:** The transition indicates a potential bullish trend. The trader decides to enter a long position.
- **Stop-Loss:** Set stop-loss below recent support levels.
- **Take-Profit:** Consider taking profits as the histogram moves back towards zero or turns red.
**Outcome:** The bullish trend continues, and the histogram remains green, providing a profitable trade setup.
### **8.2 Example 2: Bearish Trend**
**Scenario:** A trader observes a transition from green to red histogram bars.
**Analysis:**
- **Entry Point:** The transition suggests a potential
bearish trend. The trader decides to enter a short position.
- **Stop-Loss:** Set stop-loss above recent resistance levels.
- **Take-Profit:** Consider taking profits as the histogram approaches zero or shifts to green.
**Outcome:** The bearish trend continues, and the histogram remains red, resulting in a successful trade.

Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator### In-Depth Analysis of the "Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator" Indicator
---
#### Introduction to the Indicator
The "Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator" is an advanced yet user-friendly technical analysis tool designed to help traders across all levels of experience identify and follow market trends with precision. This indicator builds upon the fundamental principles of the Simple Moving Average (SMA), a cornerstone of technical analysis, to deliver a clear, visually intuitive overlay on the price chart. Through its strategic use of color-coding and customizable parameters, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator provides traders with actionable insights into market dynamics, enhancing their ability to make informed trading decisions.
#### Core Concepts and Methodology
1. **Foundational Principle – Simple Moving Average (SMA):**
- The Simple Moving Average (SMA) is the heart of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator. The SMA is a widely-used technical indicator that calculates the average price of an asset over a specified number of periods. By smoothing out price data, the SMA helps to reduce the noise from short-term fluctuations, providing a clearer picture of the overall trend.
- In the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, two SMAs are employed:
- **Primary SMA (oscValue):** This is applied to the closing price of the asset over a user-defined period (default is 14 periods). This SMA tracks the price closely and is sensitive to changes in market direction.
- **Smoothing SMA (oscV):** This second SMA is applied to the primary SMA, further smoothing the data and helping to filter out minor price movements that might otherwise be mistaken for trend reversals. The default period for this smoothing is 50, but it can be adjusted to suit the trader's preference.
2. **Color-Coding for Trend Visualization:**
- One of the most distinctive features of this indicator is its use of color to represent market trends. The indicator’s line changes color based on the relationship between the primary SMA and the smoothing SMA:
- **Bullish (Green):** The line turns green when the primary SMA is equal to or greater than the smoothing SMA, indicating that the market is in an upward trend.
- **Bearish (Red):** Conversely, the line turns red when the primary SMA falls below the smoothing SMA, signaling a downward trend.
- This color-coded system provides traders with an immediate, easy-to-interpret visual cue about the market’s direction, allowing for quick decision-making.
#### Detailed Explanation of Inputs
1. **Bullish Color (Default: Green #00ff00):**
- This input allows traders to customize the color that represents bullish trends on the chart. The default setting is green, a color commonly associated with upward market movement. However, traders can adjust this to any color that suits their visual preferences or matches their overall chart theme.
2. **Bearish Color (Default: Red RGB: 245, 0, 0):**
- The bearish color input determines the color of the line when the market is trending downwards. The default setting is a vivid red, signaling caution or selling opportunities. Like the bullish color, this can be customized to fit the trader’s needs.
3. **Line Thickness (Default: 5):**
- This setting controls the thickness of the line plotted by the indicator. The default thickness of 5 makes the line prominent on the chart, ensuring that the trend is easily visible even in complex or crowded chart setups. Traders can adjust the thickness to make the line thinner or thicker, depending on their visual preferences.
4. **Primary SMA Period (Value 1 - Default: 14):**
- The primary SMA period defines how many periods (e.g., days, hours) are used to calculate the moving average based on the asset’s closing prices. The default period of 14 is a balanced setting that offers a good mix of responsiveness and stability, but traders can adjust this depending on their trading style:
- **Shorter Periods (e.g., 5-10):** These make the indicator more sensitive, capturing trends more quickly but also increasing the likelihood of reacting to short-term price fluctuations or "noise."
- **Longer Periods (e.g., 20-50):** These smooth the data more, providing a more stable trend line that is less prone to whipsaws but may be slower to respond to trend changes.
5. **Smoothing SMA Period (Value 2 - Default: 50):**
- The smoothing SMA period determines how much the primary SMA is smoothed. A longer smoothing period results in a more gradual, stable line that focuses on the broader trend. The default of 50 is designed to smooth out most of the short-term fluctuations while still being responsive enough to detect significant trend shifts.
- **Customization:**
- **Shorter Smoothing Periods (e.g., 20-30):** Make the indicator more responsive, better for fast-moving markets or for traders who want to capture quick trends.
- **Longer Smoothing Periods (e.g., 70-100):** Enhance stability, ideal for long-term traders looking to avoid reacting to minor price movements.

- **Intraday Trading:** For day traders who operate on short timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 5-minute charts), the oscillator can be adjusted to be more responsive, capturing quick shifts in momentum.
- **Swing Trading:** Swing traders, who typically hold positions for several days to weeks, will find the default settings or slightly adjusted periods ideal for identifying and riding medium-term trends.
- **Long-Term Trading:** Position traders and investors can adjust the indicator to focus on long-term trends by increasing the periods for both the primary and smoothing SMAs, filtering out minor fluctuations and highlighting sustained market movements.
4. **Minimal Lag:**
- One of the challenges with moving averages is lag—the delay between when the price changes and when the indicator reflects this change. The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator addresses this by allowing traders to adjust the periods to find a balance between responsiveness and stability. While all SMAs inherently have some lag, the customizable nature of this indicator helps traders mitigate this effect to align with their specific trading goals.
5. **Customizable and Intuitive:**

#### Combining the Indicator with Other Tools
1. **Relative Strength Index (RSI):**
- The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. When combined with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, traders can look for instances where the RSI shows divergence from the price while the oscillator confirms the trend. This can be a powerful signal of an impending reversal or continuation.
2. **Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD):**
- The MACD is another popular trend-following momentum indicator. By using it alongside the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, traders can confirm the strength of a trend and identify potential entry and exit points with greater confidence. For example, a bullish crossover on the MACD that coincides with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator turning green can be a strong buy signal.
3. **Volume Indicators:**
- Volume is often considered the fuel behind price movements. Using volume indicators like the On-Balance Volume (OBV) or Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) in conjunction with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator can help traders confirm the validity of a trend. A trend identified by the oscillator that is supported by increasing volume is typically more reliable.
4. **Fibonacci Retracement:**
- Fibonacci retracement levels are used to identify potential reversal levels in a trending market. When the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator indicates a trend, traders can use Fibonacci retracement levels to find potential entry points that align with the broader trend direction.
#### Implementation in Different Market Conditions
1. **Trending Markets:**
- The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator excels in trending markets, where it provides clear signals on the direction of the trend. In a strong uptrend, the line will remain green, helping traders stay in the trade for longer periods. In a downtrend, the red line will signal the continuation of bearish conditions, prompting traders to stay short or avoid long positions.
2. **Sideways or Range-Bound Markets:**
- In range-bound markets, where price oscillates within a confined range without a clear trend, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator may produce more frequent changes in color. While this could indicate potential reversals at the range boundaries, traders should be cautious of false signals. It may be beneficial to pair the oscillator with a volatility indicator to better navigate such conditions.
3. **Volatile Markets:**
- In highly volatile markets, where prices can swing rapidly, the sensitivity of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator can be adjusted by modifying the SMA periods. A shorter SMA period might capture quick trends, but traders should be aware of the increased risk of whipsaws. Combining the oscillator with a volatility filter or using it in a higher time frame might help mitigate some of this risk.

IMI and MFI CombinedFor a strategy using the combined IMI (Intraday Momentum Index), MFI (Money Flow Index), and Bollinger Bands on a 1-minute chart of Bank NIFTY (Bank Nifty Index), here's how you can interpret the indicators and define a sell signal strategy:
Strategy Explanation:
IMI (Intraday Momentum Index):
IMI measures the ratio of upward price changes to downward price changes over a specified period, indicating momentum.
In the script, IMI is plotted with a range from 0 to 100. Levels above 75 are considered overbought, and levels below 25 are oversold.
Strategy Condition: A sell signal can be considered when IMI is above 75, indicating a potentially overbought market condition.
MFI (Money Flow Index):
MFI measures the strength of money flowing in and out of a security, using price and volume.
In the script, MFI is plotted with levels at 80 (overbought) and 20 (oversold).
Strategy Condition: A sell signal can be considered when MFI is above 80, suggesting an overbought condition in the market.
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands consist of a middle band (SMA) and upper/lower bands representing volatility levels around the price.
In the script, Bollinger Bands are plotted with a length of 20 and a standard deviation multiplier of 2.
Strategy Condition: While not explicitly used for generating sell signals in this script, Bollinger Bands can help confirm price volatility and potential reversals when combined with other indicators.
Sell Signal Criteria:
IMI Sell Signal: Look for instances where IMI rises above 75. This indicates that the recent upward price momentum may be reaching an unsustainable level, potentially signaling a reversal or a pullback in prices.
MFI Sell Signal: Look for MFI rising above 80. This suggests that the market has experienced strong buying pressure, possibly leading to an overbought condition where a price correction or reversal might occur.
Implementation Considerations:
Confirmation: Consider waiting for both IMI and MFI to confirm the overbought condition simultaneously before entering a sell trade. This can increase the reliability of the signal.
Risk Management: Use stop-loss orders to manage risk in case the market moves against the anticipated direction after the sell signal is triggered.
Timeframe: This strategy is tailored for a 1-minute chart, meaning signals should be interpreted and acted upon quickly due to the rapid nature of price movements in intraday trading.
By combining these indicators and interpreting their signals, you can develop a systematic approach to identifying potential sell opportunities in the Bank NIFTY index on a 1-minute timeframe. Adjustments to indicator parameters and additional technical analysis may further refine the strategy based on your trading preferences and risk tolerance.
Advanced Keltner Channel/Oscillator [MyTradingCoder]This indicator combines a traditional Keltner Channel overlay with an oscillator, providing a comprehensive view of price action, trend, and momentum. The core of this indicator is its advanced ATR calculation, which uses statistical methods to provide a more robust measure of volatility.
Starting with the overlay component, the center line is created using a biquad low-pass filter applied to the chosen price source. This provides a smoother representation of price than a simple moving average. The upper and lower channel lines are then calculated using the statistically derived ATR, with an additional set of mid-lines between the center and outer lines. This creates a more nuanced view of price action within the channel.
The color coding of the center line provides an immediate visual cue of the current price momentum. As the price moves up relative to the ATR, the line shifts towards the bullish color, and vice versa for downward moves. This color gradient allows for quick assessment of the current market sentiment.
The oscillator component transforms the channel into a different perspective. It takes the price's position within the channel and maps it to either a normalized -100 to +100 scale or displays it in price units, depending on your settings. This oscillator essentially shows where the current price is in relation to the channel boundaries.
The oscillator includes two key lines: the main oscillator line and a signal line. The main line represents the current position within the channel, smoothed by an exponential moving average (EMA). The signal line is a further smoothed version of the oscillator line. The interaction between these two lines can provide trading signals, similar to how MACD is often used.
When the oscillator line crosses above the signal line, it might indicate bullish momentum, especially if this occurs in the lower half of the oscillator range. Conversely, the oscillator line crossing below the signal line could signal bearish momentum, particularly if it happens in the upper half of the range.
The oscillator's position relative to its own range is also informative. Values near the top of the range (close to 100 if normalized) suggest that price is near the upper Keltner Channel band, indicating potential overbought conditions. Values near the bottom of the range (close to -100 if normalized) suggest proximity to the lower band, potentially indicating oversold conditions.
One of the strengths of this indicator is how the overlay and oscillator work together. For example, if the price is touching the upper band on the overlay, you'd see the oscillator at or near its maximum value. This confluence of signals can provide stronger evidence of overbought conditions. Similarly, the oscillator hitting extremes can draw your attention to price action at the channel boundaries on the overlay.
The mid-lines on both the overlay and oscillator provide additional nuance. On the overlay, price action between the mid-line and outer line might suggest strong but not extreme momentum. On the oscillator, this would correspond to readings in the outer quartiles of the range.
The customizable visual settings allow you to adjust the indicator to your preferences. The glow effects and color coding can make it easier to quickly interpret the current market conditions at a glance.

Customizable: Adjust settings to fine-tune the indicator to your specific needs and trading style.
Visually Appealing: Clear and concise design for easy interpretation.
The ATR (Average True Range) in this indicator is derived using a sophisticated statistical method that differs from the traditional ATR calculation. It begins by calculating the True Range (TR) as the difference between the high and low of each bar. Instead of a simple moving average, it computes the Root Mean Square (RMS) of the TR over the specified period, giving more weight to larger price movements. The indicator then calculates a Z-score by dividing the TR by the RMS, which standardizes the TR relative to recent volatility. This Z-score is clamped to a maximum value (10 in this case) to prevent extreme outliers from skewing the results, and then rounded to a specified number of decimal places (2 in this script).
These rounded Z-scores are collected in an array, keeping track of how many times each value occurs. From this array, two key values are derived: the mode, which is the most frequently occurring Z-score, and the average, which is the weighted average of all Z-scores. These values are then scaled back to price units by multiplying by the RMS.
Now, let's examine how these values are used in the indicator. For the Keltner Channel lines, the mid lines (top and bottom) use the mode of the ATR, representing the most common volatility state. The max lines (top and bottom) use the average of the ATR, incorporating all volatility states, including less common but larger moves. By using the mode for the mid lines and the average for the max lines, the indicator provides a nuanced view of volatility. The mid lines represent the "typical" market state, while the max lines account for less frequent but significant price movements.
For the color coding of the center line, the mode of the ATR is used to normalize the price movement. The script calculates the difference between the current price and the price 'degree' bars ago (default is 2), and then divides this difference by the mode of the ATR. The resulting value is passed through an arctangent function and scaled to a 0-1 range. This scaled value is used to create a color gradient between the bearish and bullish colors.
Using the mode of the ATR for this color coding ensures that the color changes are based on the most typical volatility state of the market. This means that the color will change more quickly in low volatility environments and more slowly in high volatility environments, providing a consistent visual representation of price momentum relative to current market conditions.
Using a good IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) low-pass filter, such as the biquad filter implemented in this indicator, offers significant advantages over simpler moving averages like the EMA (Exponential Moving Average) or other basic moving averages.
At its core, an EMA is indeed a simple, single-pole IIR filter, but it has limitations in terms of its frequency response and phase delay characteristics. The biquad filter, on the other hand, is a two-pole, two-zero filter that provides superior control over the frequency response curve. This allows for a much sharper cutoff between the passband and stopband, meaning it can more effectively separate the signal (in this case, the underlying price trend) from the noise (short-term price fluctuations).
The improved frequency response of a well-designed biquad filter means it can achieve a better balance between smoothness and responsiveness. While an EMA might need a longer period to sufficiently smooth out price noise, potentially leading to more lag, a biquad filter can achieve similar or better smoothing with less lag. This is crucial in financial markets where timely information is vital for making trading decisions.
Moreover, the biquad filter allows for independent control of the cutoff frequency and the Q factor. The Q factor, in particular, is a powerful parameter that affects the filter's resonance at the cutoff frequency. By adjusting the Q factor, users can fine-tune the filter's behavior to suit different market conditions or trading styles. This level of control is simply not available with basic moving averages.
Another advantage of the biquad filter is its superior phase response. In the context of financial data, this translates to more consistent lag across different frequency components of the price action. This can lead to more reliable signals, especially when it comes to identifying trend changes or price reversals.
The computational efficiency of biquad filters is also worth noting. Despite their more complex mathematical foundation, biquad filters can be implemented very efficiently, often requiring only a few operations per sample. This makes them suitable for real-time applications and high-frequency trading scenarios.
Furthermore, the use of a more sophisticated filter like the biquad can help in reducing false signals. The improved noise rejection capabilities mean that minor price fluctuations are less likely to cause unnecessary crossovers or indicator movements, potentially leading to fewer false breakouts or reversal signals.
In the specific context of a Keltner Channel, using a biquad filter for the center line can provide a more stable and reliable basis for the entire indicator. It can help in better defining the overall trend, which is crucial since the Keltner Channel is often used for trend-following strategies. The smoother, yet more responsive center line can lead to more accurate channel boundaries, potentially improving the reliability of overbought/oversold signals and breakout indications.
In conclusion, this advanced Keltner Channel indicator represents a significant evolution in technical analysis tools, combining the power of traditional Keltner Channels with modern statistical methods and signal processing techniques. By integrating a sophisticated ATR calculation, a biquad low-pass filter, and a complementary oscillator component, this indicator offers traders a comprehensive and nuanced view of market dynamics.
The indicator's strength lies in its ability to adapt to varying market conditions, providing clear visual cues for trend identification, momentum assessment, and potential reversal points. The use of statistically derived ATR values for channel construction and the implementation of a biquad filter for the center line result in a more responsive and accurate representation of price action compared to traditional methods.
Furthermore, the dual nature of this indicator – functioning as both an overlay and an oscillator – allows traders to simultaneously analyze price trends and momentum from different perspectives. This multifaceted approach can lead to more informed decision-making and potentially more reliable trading signals.
The high degree of customization available in the indicator's settings enables traders to fine-tune its performance to suit their specific trading styles and market preferences. From adjustable visual elements to flexible parameter inputs, users can optimize the indicator for various trading scenarios and time frames.
Ultimately, while no indicator can predict market movements with certainty, this advanced Keltner Channel provides traders with a powerful tool for market analysis. By offering a more sophisticated approach to measuring volatility, trend, and momentum, it equips traders with valuable insights to navigate the complex world of financial markets. As with any trading tool, it should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis and within a well-defined risk management framework to maximize its potential benefits.
Dual Timeframe Williams Percent RangeThis is a dual timeframe Williams Percent Range indicator.
Function:
The idea behind this indicator is for trader to see what the Williams %r is doing on higher timeframes without the need to change the chart. I added the "Smoothing" function to take the jagged lines out of the higher timeframe. It has a better flow this way.
If we choose the 4H and the Daily timeframes for example. In this bullish situation I wait for the Daily WPR to cross above the -50 mid line. Then the faster 4H WPR will eventually hit the bottom and begin to rise again back into the trend.
This is the "Reset" of the 4H WPR and when the 4H WPR crosses up above the -50 mid line again it means price should begin to rise on the chart. I added the option to change the colour when the signal lines cross the -50. It is good to use a fast time frame so you can see the WPR hitting the bottom in an uptrend, but not too fast.
The Heiken Ashi candle sticks are a very good addition to this system. You can also use a colour changing 200 EMA if you run the "1H/Daily" in the WPR. Or the 50 EMA if you run the Daily 4H.
This system could be used on lower timeframes too but I have not tested it there.
The Dual WPR indicator, the colour changing 50 EMA and Heiken Ashi have been optimised for the 4H/Daily.
If you want to set alerts the the faster WPR line crossing the -50 is good, on candle close.
This way you will only need one alert per chart.
If you get an alert on the EURUSD 4H that the 4H WPR has crossed up then look to see what what the Daily WPR is doing. If it is also above the -50 mid line then EURUSD is probably trending up.
Thank you to TradingView for supplying the Williams %r template.
I hope this helps some other traders out there.
I combined the Supertrend and the Coloured EMA in the main screen into one indicator.
This is my first indicator published :-)
Have fun out there and good luck.

Uptrick: Dynamic AMA RSI Indicator### **Uptrick: Dynamic AMA RSI Indicator**
**Overview:**
The **Uptrick: Dynamic AMA RSI Indicator** is an advanced technical analysis tool designed for traders who seek to optimize their trading strategies by combining adaptive moving averages with the Relative Strength Index (RSI). This indicator dynamically adjusts to market conditions, offering a nuanced approach to trend detection and momentum analysis. By leveraging the Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) and Fast Adaptive Moving Average (FAMA), along with RSI-based overbought and oversold signals, traders can better identify entry and exit points with higher precision and reduced noise.
**Key Components:**
1. **Source Input:**
- The source input is the price data that forms the basis of all calculations. Typically set to the closing price, traders can customize this to other price metrics such as open, high, low, or even the output of another indicator. This flexibility allows the **Uptrick** indicator to be tailored to a wide range of trading strategies.
2. **Adaptive Moving Average (AMA):**
- The AMA is a moving average that adapts its sensitivity based on the dominant market cycle. This adaptation allows the AMA to respond swiftly to significant price movements while smoothing out minor fluctuations, making it particularly effective in trending markets. The AMA adjusts its responsiveness dynamically using a calculated phase adjustment from the dominant cycle, ensuring it remains responsive to the current market environment without being overly reactive to market noise.
3. **Fast Adaptive Moving Average (FAMA):**
- The FAMA is a more sensitive version of the AMA, designed to react faster to price changes. It serves as a signal line in the crossover strategy, highlighting shorter-term trends. The interaction between the AMA and FAMA forms the core of the signal generation, with crossovers between these lines indicating potential buy or sell opportunities.
4. **Relative Strength Index (RSI):**
- The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements, providing insights into whether an asset is overbought or oversold. In the **Uptrick** indicator, the RSI is used to confirm the validity of crossover signals between the AMA and FAMA, adding an additional layer of reliability to the trading signals.
**Indicator Logic:**
1. **Dominant Cycle Calculation:**
- The indicator starts by calculating the dominant market cycle using a smoothed price series. This involves applying exponential moving averages to a series of price differences, extracting cycle components, and determining the instantaneous phase of the cycle. This phase is then adjusted to provide a phase adjustment factor, which plays a critical role in determining the adaptive alpha.
2. **Adaptive Alpha Calculation:**
- The adaptive alpha, a key feature of the AMA, is computed based on the fast and slow limits set by the trader. This alpha is clamped within these limits to ensure the AMA remains appropriately sensitive to market conditions. The dynamic adjustment of alpha allows the AMA to be highly responsive in volatile markets and more conservative in stable markets.
3. **Crossover Detection:**
- The indicator generates trading signals based on crossovers between the AMA and FAMA:
- **CrossUp:** When the AMA crosses above the FAMA, it indicates a potential bullish trend, suggesting a buy opportunity.
- **CrossDown:** When the AMA crosses below the FAMA, it signals a potential bearish trend, indicating a sell opportunity.
4. **RSI Confirmation:**
- To enhance the reliability of these crossover signals, the indicator uses the RSI to confirm overbought and oversold conditions:
- **Buy Signal:** A buy signal is generated only when the AMA crosses above the FAMA and the RSI confirms an oversold condition, ensuring that the signal aligns with a momentum reversal from a low point.
- **Sell Signal:** A sell signal is triggered when the AMA crosses below the FAMA and the RSI confirms an overbought condition, indicating a momentum reversal from a high point.
5. **Signal Management:**
- To prevent signal redundancy during strong trends, the indicator tracks the last generated signal (buy or sell) and ensures that the next signal is only issued when there is a genuine reversal in trend direction.
6. **Signal Visualization:**
- **Buy Signals:** The indicator plots a "BUY" label below the bar when a buy signal is generated, using a green color to clearly mark the entry point.

Tether Ratio ChannelTether Ratio Channel is an on-chain metric that tracks the ebb & flow of the ratio of BTC market cap / stablecoin market cap.
This ratio is relevant to traders, as it tends to lead total crypto market cap's short to medium term trend, and has for many years.
The ratio's most straightforwards visualization may be Stablecoin Supply Oscillator , a legacy on-chain metric that captures the ratio but isn't useful on its own as a trading tool.
Tether Ratio Channel builds on top of Stablecoin Supply Oscillator, to create a new metric that's:
Signal-generating , with clear entry & exit signals
Unambiguous , so use is mechanical
Optimized , with the intent to generate signals as close as possible to BTC local tops & bottoms
Normalized across its history , so each signal has a rich uniform history & context
METRIC CONSTRUCTION
Tether Ratio Channel is a higher timeframe RSI of Stablecoin Supply Oscillator, bound inside a bollinger band channel, normalized and smoothed for optimal signal clarity.
Instead of chart price as the source, the metric uses a proxy for stablecoin market cap:
(USDT + USDC + DAI) divided by BTC mkt cap
But it's named for Tether specifically, because USDT just completely dominates the asset class.
Default settings are very close to the on-chain metric original, but not identical. Settings are adjustable in the metric inputs.
VERTICAL LOCATION IN THE CHANNEL
The lower the yellow print is on the metric's Y-axis, the more upside potential total crypto market cap typically has.
The higher the yellow print is on the metric's Y-axis, the more downside risk most crypto assets typically have.
SWING TRADE SIGNALS
Tether Ratio Channel is signal-generating, a simple cross of the metric (the yellow line) and its weighted moving average (the white line) is the signal.
A bullish cross below the green horizontal target is a high conviction buy signal
A bullish cross above the green target is a lower conviction buy signal, but historically still tends to make for a good entry
Any bearish cross is typically a good time to take profits
Any bearish cross above 55 (on the metric's Y axis) tends to coincide with BTC local tops
Buy signals are visualized with a green vertical, and a background fill that persists until the next sell signal
High conviction buy signals (below the green line) also print an arrow, if enabled.
Background fills and arrow prints will only appear if the chart timeframe is equal to or lower than the 8H chart. (Or whatever the metric's timeframe input is set to, if the user changes default settings).
Rsi Long-Term Strategy [15min]Hello, I would like to present to you The "RSI Long-Term Strategy" for 15min tf
The "RSI Long-Term Strategy " is designed for traders who prefer a combination of momentum and trend-following techniques. The strategy focuses on entering long positions during significant market corrections within an overall uptrend, confirmed by both RSI and volume. The use of long-term SMAs ensures that trades are made in line with the broader market trend. The stop-loss feature provides risk management by limiting losses on trades that do not perform as expected. This strategy is particularly well-suited for longer-term traders who monitor 15-minute charts but look for substantial trend reversals or continuations.
Indicators and Parameters:
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
- The RSI is calculated using a 10-period length. It measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions. The script defines oversold conditions when the RSI is at or below 30 and overbought conditions when the RSI is at or above 70.
Volume Condition:
-The strategy incorporates a volume condition where the current volume must be greater than 2.5 times the 20-period moving average of volume. This is used to confirm the strength of the price movement.
Simple Moving Averages (SMA):
- The strategy uses two SMAs: SMA1 with a length of 250 periods and SMA2 with a length of 500 periods. These SMAs help identify long-term trends and generate signals based on their crossover.
Strategy Logic:
Entry Logic:
A long position is initiated when all the following conditions are met:
The RSI indicates an oversold condition (RSI ≤ 30).
SMA1 is above SMA2, indicating an uptrend.
The volume condition is satisfied, confirming the strength of the signal.
Exit Logic:
The strategy closes the long position when SMA1 crosses under SMA2, signaling a potential end of the uptrend (a "Death Cross").
Stop-Loss:
A stop-loss is set at 5% below the entry price to manage risk and limit potential losses.
Buy and sell signals are highlighted with circles below or above bars:
Green Circle : Buy signal when RSI is oversold, SMA1 > SMA2, and the volume condition is met.
Red Circle : Sell signal when RSI is overbought, SMA1 < SMA2, and the volume condition is met.
Black Cross: "Death Cross" when SMA1 crosses under SMA2, indicating a potential bearish signal.
to determine the level of stop loss and target point I used a piece of code by RafaelZioni, here is the script from which a piece of code was taken
I hope the strategy will be helpful, as always, best regards and safe trades

Uptrick: MultiTrend Squeeze System**Uptrick: MultiTrend Squeeze System Indicator: The Ultimate Trading Tool for Precision and Versatility 📈🔥**
### Introduction
The MultiTrend Squeeze System is a powerful, multi-faceted trading indicator designed to provide traders with precise buy and sell signals by combining the strengths of multiple technical analysis tools. This script isn't just an indicator; it's a comprehensive trading system that merges the power of SuperTrend, RSI, Volume Filtering, and Squeeze Momentum to give you an unparalleled edge in the market. Whether you're a day trader looking for short-term opportunities or a swing trader aiming to catch longer-term trends, this indicator is tailored to meet your needs.
### Key Features and Unique Aspects
1. **SuperTrend with Dynamic Adjustments 📊**
- **Adaptive SuperTrend Calculation:** The SuperTrend is a popular trend-following indicator that adjusts dynamically based on market conditions. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate upper and lower bands, which shift according to market volatility. This script takes it further by combining it with the RSI and Volume filtering to provide more accurate signals.
- **Direction Sensitivity:** The SuperTrend here is not static. It adjusts based on the direction of the previous SuperTrend value, ensuring that the indicator remains relevant even in choppy markets.
2. **RSI Integration for Overbought/Oversold Conditions 💹**
- **RSI Calculation:** The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is incorporated to identify overbought and oversold conditions, adding an extra layer of precision. This helps in filtering out false signals and ensuring that trades are taken only in optimal conditions.
- **Customizable RSI Settings:** The RSI settings are fully customizable, allowing traders to adjust the RSI length and the overbought/oversold levels according to their trading style and market.
3. **Volume Filtering for Enhanced Signal Confirmation 📉**
- **Volume Multiplier:** This unique feature integrates volume analysis, ensuring that signals are only generated when there is sufficient market participation. The Volume Multiplier can be adjusted to filter out weak signals that occur during low-volume periods.
- **Optional Volume Filtering:** Traders have the flexibility to turn the volume filter on or off, depending on their preference or market conditions. This makes the indicator versatile, allowing it to be used across different asset classes and market conditions.
4. **Squeeze Momentum Indicator (SMI) for Market Pressure Analysis 💥**
- **Squeeze Detection:** The Squeeze Momentum Indicator detects periods of market compression and expansion. This script goes beyond the traditional Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels by incorporating true range calculations, offering a more nuanced view of market momentum.
- **Customizable Squeeze Settings:** The lengths and multipliers for both Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels are customizable, giving traders the flexibility to fine-tune the indicator based on their specific needs.
5. **Visual and Aesthetic Customization 🎨**
- **Color-Coding for Clarity:** The indicator is color-coded to make it easy to interpret signals. Bullish trends are marked with a vibrant green color, while bearish trends are highlighted in red. Neutral or unconfirmed signals are displayed in softer tones to reduce noise.
- **Histogram Visualization:** The primary trend direction and strength are displayed as a histogram, making it easy to visualize the market's momentum at a glance. The height and color of the bars provide immediate feedback on the strength and direction of the trend.
6. **Alerts for Real-Time Trading 🚨**
- **Custom Alerts:** The script is equipped with custom alerts that notify traders when a buy or sell signal is generated. These alerts can be configured to send notifications through various channels, including email, SMS, or directly to the trading platform.
- **Immediate Reaction:** The alerts are triggered based on the confluence of SuperTrend, RSI, and Volume signals, ensuring that traders are notified only when the most robust trading opportunities arise.
7. **Comprehensive Input Customization ⚙️**
- **SuperTrend Settings:** Adjust the ATR length and factor to control the sensitivity of the SuperTrend. This allows you to adapt the indicator to different market conditions, whether you're trading a volatile cryptocurrency or a more stable stock.
- **RSI Settings:** Customize the RSI length and thresholds for overbought and oversold conditions, enabling you to tailor the indicator to your specific trading strategy.
- **Volume Settings:** The Volume Multiplier and the option to toggle the volume filter provide an additional layer of customization, allowing you to fine-tune the indicator based on market liquidity and participation.
- **Squeeze Momentum Settings:** The lengths and multipliers for Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels can be adjusted to detect different levels of market compression, providing flexibility for both short-term and long-term traders.
### How It Works: A Deep Dive Into the Mechanics 🛠️
1. **SuperTrend Calculation:**
- The SuperTrend is calculated using the ATR, which measures market volatility. The indicator creates upper and lower bands around the price, adjusting these bands based on the current level of market volatility. The direction of the trend is determined by the position of the price relative to these bands.
- The script enhances the standard SuperTrend by ensuring that the bands do not flip-flop too quickly, reducing the chances of false signals in a choppy market. The direction is confirmed by checking the position of the close relative to the previous band, making the trend detection more reliable.
2. **RSI Integration:**
- The RSI is calculated over a customizable length and compared to user-defined overbought and oversold levels. When the RSI crosses below the oversold level, and the SuperTrend indicates a bullish trend, a buy signal is generated. Conversely, when the RSI crosses above the overbought level, and the SuperTrend indicates a bearish trend, a sell signal is triggered.
- The combination of RSI with SuperTrend ensures that trades are only taken when there is a strong confluence of signals, reducing the chances of entering trades during weak or indecisive market phases.
3. **Volume Filtering:**
- The script calculates the average volume over a 20-period simple moving average. The volume filter ensures that buy and sell signals are only valid when the current volume exceeds a multiple of this average, which can be adjusted by the user. This feature helps filter out weak signals that might occur during low-volume periods, such as just before a major news event or during after-hours trading.
- The volume filter is particularly useful in markets where volume spikes are common, as it ensures that signals are only generated when there is significant market interest in the direction of the trend.
4. **Squeeze Momentum:**
- The Squeeze Momentum Indicator (SMI) adds a layer of market pressure analysis. The script calculates Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels, detecting when the market is in a "squeeze" — a period of low volatility that typically precedes a significant price move.
- When the Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channels, the market is in a squeeze (compression phase). This is often a precursor to a breakout or breakdown. The script colors the histogram bars black during this phase, indicating a potential for a strong move. Once the squeeze is released, the bars are colored according to the direction of the SuperTrend, signaling a potential entry point.
5. **Integration and Signal Generation:**
- The script brings together the SuperTrend, RSI, Volume, and Squeeze Momentum to generate highly accurate buy and sell signals. A buy signal is triggered when the SuperTrend is bullish, the RSI indicates oversold conditions, and the volume filter confirms strong market participation. Similarly, a sell signal is generated when the SuperTrend is bearish, the RSI indicates overbought conditions, and the volume filter is met.
- The combination of these elements ensures that the signals are robust, reducing the likelihood of entering trades during weak or indecisive market conditions.
### Practical Applications: How to Use the MultiTrend Squeeze System 📅
1. **Day Trading:**
- For day traders, this indicator provides quick and reliable signals that can be used to enter and exit trades multiple times within a day. The volume filter ensures that you are trading during the most liquid times of the day, increasing the chances of successful trades. The Squeeze Momentum aspect helps you catch breakouts or breakdowns, which are common in intraday trading.
2. **Swing Trading:**
- Swing traders can use the MultiTrend Squeeze System to identify longer-term trends. By adjusting the ATR length and factor, you can make the SuperTrend more sensitive to catch longer-term moves. The RSI and Squeeze Momentum aspects help you time your entries and exits, ensuring that you get in early on a trend and exit before it reverses.
3. **Scalping:**
- For scalpers, the quick signals provided by this system, especially in combination with the volume filter, make it easier to take small profits repeatedly. The histogram bars give you a clear visual cue of the market's momentum, making it easier to scalp effectively.
4. **Position Trading:**
- Even position traders can benefit from this indicator by using it to confirm long-term trends. By adjusting the settings to less sensitive parameters, you can ensure that you are only entering trades when a strong trend is confirmed. The Squeeze Momentum indicator will help you stay in the trade during periods of consolidation, waiting for the next big move.
### Conclusion: Why the MultiTrend Squeeze System is a Game-Changer 🚀
The MultiTrend Squeeze System is not just another trading indicator; it’s a comprehensive trading strategy encapsulated within a single script. By combining the power
of SuperTrend, RSI, Volume Filtering, and Squeeze Momentum, this indicator provides a robust and versatile tool that can be adapted to various trading styles and market conditions.

Uptrick: Adaptive Cloud Oscillator (ACO)### **Uptrick: Adaptive Cloud Oscillator (ACO)**
---
### Introduction
The **Uptrick: Adaptive Cloud Oscillator (ACO)** is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to empower traders with precise trend detection and visual clarity in dynamic market conditions. By seamlessly integrating adaptive trend analysis, volatility filtering, and cloud-based support and resistance levels, the ACO provides traders with the actionable insights needed to navigate complex markets with confidence.
This indicator is highly customizable, allowing traders to tailor its functionality to their specific trading style and preferences. Whether you're a trend follower, swing trader, or looking to identify key support and resistance zones, the **Uptrick: ACO** is an indispensable tool that can adapt to a variety of market conditions.
### Indicator Purpose and Functionality
#### 1. **Adaptive Trend Detection**
At the heart of the **Uptrick: ACO** lies its adaptive trend detection algorithm. Unlike traditional moving averages that may lag in volatile markets or react too slowly to rapid changes, this adaptive method uses a smoothing technique that dynamically adjusts based on market conditions. By doing so, it provides a more responsive trend line that captures meaningful price movements while filtering out minor fluctuations.
- **How It Works:** The trend line is calculated using an adaptive smoothing factor, making it responsive to recent price actions while maintaining a level of stability that prevents whipsaw signals. This ensures that traders are always in tune with the prevailing market trend, whether bullish, bearish, or neutral.
#### 2. **Dynamic Cloud Support and Resistance**
The **Uptrick: ACO** features a dynamic "cloud" that serves as a key element in its analysis. This cloud is constructed using a moving average combined with the Average True Range (ATR), which adjusts based on the market’s volatility. The cloud provides dynamic support and resistance levels, essential for identifying potential reversal zones or confirming trend continuations.
- **Cloud Displacement:** The cloud is displaced forward by a user-defined number of bars, offering a predictive view of where future support and resistance levels may lie. This forward-looking feature helps traders anticipate potential price movements, making the ACO a powerful tool for planning trades ahead of time.
#### 3. **Versatile Visualization Options**
The **Uptrick: ACO** is designed with flexibility in mind, allowing users to choose between two distinct display modes:
- **Buy/Sell Signals:** In this mode, the indicator generates clear buy and sell signals based on crossovers of the trend line and the cloud boundaries. These signals are visualized directly on the chart with up and down labels, making it easy for traders to identify potential entry and exit points.
- **Cloud Fill Only:** For traders who prefer a cleaner chart, this mode removes the buy/sell signals and instead focuses on coloring the area between the upper and lower cloud boundaries. The color of the cloud fill changes based on the trend direction, providing a visual representation of the market's momentum.
- **Optional EMA Line:** An Exponential Moving Average (EMA) line can be optionally displayed on the chart. The EMA serves as an additional trend filter, helping traders further refine their entries and exits. The length, color, and thickness of the EMA are fully customizable to fit individual trading strategies.
### Practical Applications
#### 1. **Trend Following and Reversals**
The **Uptrick: ACO** excels in identifying and following trends. By analyzing the relationship between the trend line and the cloud, traders can determine the strength and direction of the current market trend. The cloud’s dynamic nature means it can adapt to both trending and ranging markets, providing consistent insights regardless of market conditions.
- **Example:** If the trend line crosses above the upper cloud boundary, it signals a potential buy opportunity. Conversely, a cross below the lower cloud boundary suggests a sell opportunity. Traders can use these signals to enter trades aligned with the prevailing trend.
#### 2. **Support and Resistance Identification**
The forward-displaced cloud acts as a predictive support and resistance zone. Traders can use these zones to set stop-loss levels, determine take-profit targets, or identify potential reversal points.
- **Example:** When the price approaches the upper cloud boundary from below, the boundary may act as resistance, indicating a potential reversal or pullback. If the price breaks through this level, it may signal a continuation of the bullish trend.
#### 3. **Volatility-Based Analysis**
By incorporating ATR into its calculations, the **Uptrick: ACO** provides a built-in mechanism to adapt to varying levels of market volatility. This makes it particularly useful in markets prone to sudden spikes in volatility, such as during major economic announcements or geopolitical events.
- **Example:** In a high-volatility environment, the cloud widens, allowing for greater price fluctuations within the trend. Traders can use this information to adjust their risk management strategies, such as widening stop-loss levels during volatile periods to avoid being stopped out prematurely.
### Customization and Flexibility
The **Uptrick: ACO** is designed to be highly customizable, ensuring it can meet the needs of traders with different strategies and preferences. Key customization options include:
- **Cloud and Trend Settings:** Traders can adjust the length of the cloud, the smoothing factor for the trend line, and the displacement of the cloud to optimize the indicator for their specific market and timeframe.
- **Display Modes:** With a simple dropdown selection, traders can choose whether to display buy/sell signals or focus solely on the cloud fill, providing flexibility in how the indicator is visualized.
- **Color and Style Customization:** The colors for bullish and bearish trends, cloud fill, buy/sell signals, and the EMA line can all be customized, allowing traders to integrate the **Uptrick: ACO** seamlessly into their existing chart setups.
### Conclusion
The **Uptrick: Adaptive Cloud Oscillator (ACO)** is more than just a trend indicator—it's a comprehensive market analysis tool that provides traders with a deep understanding of market dynamics.

Volume-Weighted RSI with HMA SmoothingThis script combines a Volume-Weighted RSI, smoothed with a custom Hull Moving Average (HMA), with a modified MACD based on normalized net volume.
Volume-Weighted RSI: It is calculated by adjusting the closing price with a normalized On-Balance Volume (OBV) and then applying an RSI. This approach weights the RSI according to volume, providing a more accurate measure of the strength of the price movement.
Modified HMA: A Hull Moving Average (HMA) is used to smooth the Volume-Weighted RSI, enhancing the ability to identify market trend changes.
Possible Reversal from Oversold:
The Volume-Weighted RSI crosses above the oversold level.
It is displayed as an upward green triangle at the bottom of the chart, indicating that the market might be exhausting its oversold conditions and potentially starting an upward reversal.
Possible Reversal from Overbought:
The Volume-Weighted RSI crosses below the overbought level.
It is displayed as a downward red triangle at the top of the chart, indicating that the market might be exhausting its overbought conditions and potentially starting a downward reversal.
Confirmation with the Modified MACD: For a more robust interpretation, the behavior of the modified MACD can be observed alongside the RSI cross.
The MACD is also modified, using normalized net volume (calculated as the cumulative change in the closing price multiplied by volume) as the input instead of the standard closing price.
The direction and color change of the MACD bars indicate the market's momentum.
Alerts: Alerts are set to trigger automatically when the modified RSI crosses the oversold or overbought levels.
