OrdinaryLeastSquaresLibrary "OrdinaryLeastSquares"
One of the most common ways to estimate the coefficients for a linear regression is to use the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method.
This library implements OLS in pine. This implementation can be used to fit a linear regression of multiple independent variables onto one dependent variable,
as long as the assumptions behind OLS hold.
solve_xtx_inv(x, y) Solve a linear system of equations using the Ordinary Least Squares method.
This function returns both the estimated OLS solution and a matrix that essentially measures the model stability (linear dependence between the columns of 'x').
NOTE: The latter is an intermediate step when estimating the OLS solution but is useful when calculating the covariance matrix and is returned here to save computation time
so that this step doesn't have to be calculated again when things like standard errors should be calculated.
Parameters:
x : The matrix containing the independent variables. Each column is regarded by the algorithm as one independent variable. The row count of 'x' and 'y' must match.
y : The matrix containing the dependent variable. This matrix can only contain one dependent variable and can therefore only contain one column. The row count of 'x' and 'y' must match.
Returns: Returns both the estimated OLS solution and a matrix that essentially measures the model stability (xtx_inv is equal to (X'X)^-1).
solve(x, y) Solve a linear system of equations using the Ordinary Least Squares method.
Parameters:
x : The matrix containing the independent variables. Each column is regarded by the algorithm as one independent variable. The row count of 'x' and 'y' must match.
y : The matrix containing the dependent variable. This matrix can only contain one dependent variable and can therefore only contain one column. The row count of 'x' and 'y' must match.
Returns: Returns the estimated OLS solution.
standard_errors(x, y, beta_hat, xtx_inv) Calculate the standard errors.
Parameters:
x : The matrix containing the independent variables. Each column is regarded by the algorithm as one independent variable. The row count of 'x' and 'y' must match.
y : The matrix containing the dependent variable. This matrix can only contain one dependent variable and can therefore only contain one column. The row count of 'x' and 'y' must match.
beta_hat : The Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) solution provided by solve_xtx_inv() or solve().
xtx_inv : This is (X'X)^-1, which means we take the transpose of the X matrix, multiply that the X matrix and then take the inverse of the result.
This essentially measures the linear dependence between the columns of the X matrix.
Returns: The standard errors.
estimate(x, beta_hat) Estimate the next step of a linear model.
Parameters:
x : The matrix containing the independent variables. Each column is regarded by the algorithm as one independent variable. The row count of 'x' and 'y' must match.
beta_hat : The Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) solution provided by solve_xtx_inv() or solve().
Returns: Returns the new estimate of Y based on the linear model.

NormalizedOscillatorsLibrary "NormalizedOscillators"
Collection of some common Oscillators. All are zero-mean and normalized to fit in the -1..1 range. Some are modified, so that the internal smoothing function could be configurable (for example, to enable Hann Windowing, that John F. Ehlers uses frequently). Some are modified for other reasons (see comments in the code), but never without a reason. This collection is neither encyclopaedic, nor reference, however I try to find the most correct implementation. Suggestions are welcome.
rsi2(upper, lower) RSI - second step
Parameters:
upper : Upwards momentum
lower : Downwards momentum
Returns: Oscillator value
Modified by Ehlers from Wilder's implementation to have a zero mean (oscillator from -1 to +1)
Originally: 100.0 - (100.0 / (1.0 + upper / lower))
Ignoring the 100 scale factor, we get: upper / (upper + lower)
Multiplying by two and subtracting 1, we get: (2 * upper) / (upper + lower) - 1 = (upper - lower) / (upper + lower)
rms(src, len) Root mean square (RMS)
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
Based on by John F. Ehlers implementation
ift(src) Inverse Fisher Transform
Parameters:
src : Source series
Returns: Normalized series
Based on by John F. Ehlers implementation
The input values have been multiplied by 2 (was "2*src", now "4*src") to force expansion - not compression
The inputs may be further modified, if needed
stoch(src, len) Stochastic
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
Returns: Oscillator series
ssstoch(src, len) Super Smooth Stochastic (part of MESA Stochastic) by John F. Ehlers
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
Returns: Oscillator series
Introduced in the January 2014 issue of Stocks and Commodities
This is not an implementation of MESA Stochastic, as it is based on Highpass filter not present in the function (but you can construct it)
This implementation is scaled by 0.95, so that Super Smoother does not exceed 1/-1
I do not know, if this the right way to fix this issue, but it works for now
netKendall(src, len) Noise Elimination Technology by John F. Ehlers
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
Returns: Oscillator series
Introduced in the December 2020 issue of Stocks and Commodities
Uses simplified Kendall correlation algorithm
Implementation by @QuantTherapy:
rsi(src, len, smooth) RSI
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
smooth : Internal smoothing algorithm
Returns: Oscillator series
vrsi(src, len, smooth) Volume-scaled RSI
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
smooth : Internal smoothing algorithm
Returns: Oscillator series
This is my own version of RSI. It scales price movements by the proportion of RMS of volume
mrsi(src, len, smooth) Momentum RSI
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
smooth : Internal smoothing algorithm
Returns: Oscillator series
Inspired by RocketRSI by John F. Ehlers (Stocks and Commodities, May 2018)
rrsi(src, len, smooth) Rocket RSI
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
smooth : Internal smoothing algorithm
Returns: Oscillator series
Inspired by RocketRSI by John F. Ehlers (Stocks and Commodities, May 2018)
Does not include Fisher Transform of the original implementation, as the output must be normalized
Does not include momentum smoothing length configuration, so always assumes half the lookback length
mfi(src, len, smooth) Money Flow Index
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
smooth : Internal smoothing algorithm
Returns: Oscillator series
lrsi(src, in_gamma, len) Laguerre RSI by John F. Ehlers
Parameters:
src : Source series
in_gamma : Damping factor (default is -1 to generate from len)
len : Lookback period (alternatively, if gamma is not set)
Returns: Oscillator series
The original implementation is with gamma. As it is impossible to collect gamma in my system, where the only user input is length,
an alternative calculation is included, where gamma is set by dividing len by 30. Maybe different calculation would be better?
fe(len) Choppiness Index or Fractal Energy
Parameters:
len : Lookback period
Returns: Oscillator series
The Choppiness Index (CHOP) was created by E. W. Dreiss
This indicator is sometimes called Fractal Energy
er(src, len) Efficiency ratio
Parameters:
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
Returns: Oscillator series
Based on Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average calculation
This is the correct Efficiency ratio calculation, and most other implementations are wrong:
the number of bar differences is 1 less than the length, otherwise we are adding the change outside of the measured range!
For reference, see Stocks and Commodities June 1995
dmi(len, smooth) Directional Movement Index
Parameters:
len : Lookback period
smooth : Internal smoothing algorithm
Returns: Oscillator series
Based on the original Tradingview algorithm
Modified with inspiration from John F. Ehlers DMH (but not implementing the DMH algorithm!)
Only ADX is returned
Rescaled to fit -1 to +1
Unlike most oscillators, there is no src parameter as DMI works directly with high and low values
fdmi(len, smooth) Fast Directional Movement Index
Parameters:
len : Lookback period
smooth : Internal smoothing algorithm
Returns: Oscillator series
Same as DMI, but without secondary smoothing. Can be smoothed later. Instead, +DM and -DM smoothing can be configured
doOsc(type, src, len, smooth) Execute a particular Oscillator from the list
Parameters:
type : Oscillator type to use
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
smooth : Internal smoothing algorithm
Returns: Oscillator series
Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) is RSI without smoothing. No idea, why some authors use different calculations
LRSI with Fractal Energy is a combo oscillator that uses Fractal Energy to tune LRSI gamma, as seen here: www.prorealcode.com
doPostfilter(type, src, len) Execute a particular Oscillator Postfilter from the list
Parameters:
type : Oscillator type to use
src : Source series
len : Lookback period
Returns: Oscillator series
Average Down [Zeiierman]AVERAGING DOWN
Averaging down is an investment strategy that involves buying additional contracts of an asset when the price drops. This way, the investor increases the size of their position at discounted prices. The averaging down strategy is highly debated among traders and investors because it can either lead to huge losses or great returns. Nevertheless, averaging down is often used and favored by long-term investors and contrarian traders. With careful/proper risk management, averaging down can cover losses and magnify the returns when the asset rebounds. However, the main concern for a trader is that it can be hard to identify the difference between a pullback or the start of a new trend.
HOW DOES IT WORK
Averaging down is a method to lower the average price at which the investor buys an asset. A lower average price can help investors come back to break even quicker and, if the price continues to rise, get an even bigger upside and thus increase the total profit from the trade. For example, We buy 100 shares at $60 per share, a total investment of $6000, and then the asset drops to $40 per share; in order to come back to break even, the price has to go up 50%. (($60/$40) - 1)*100 = 50%.
The power of Averaging down comes into play if the investor buys additional shares at a lower price, like another 100 shares at $40 per share; the total investment is ($6000+$4000 = $10000). The average price for the investment is now $50. (($60 x 100) + ($40 x 100))/200; in order to get back to break even, the price has to rise 25% ($50/$40)-1)*100 = 25%, and if the price continues up to $60 per share, the investor can secure a profit at 16%. So by averaging down, investors and traders can cover the losses easier and potentially have more profit to secure at the end.
THE AVERAGE DOWN TRADINGVIEW TOOL
This script/indicator/trading tool helps traders and investors to get the average price of their position. The tool works for Long and Short and displays the entry price, average price, and the PnL in points.
HOW TO USE
Use the tool to calculate the average price of your long or short position in any market and timeframe.
Get the current PnL for the investment and keep track of your entry prices.
APPLY TO CHART
When you apply the tool on the chart, you have to select five entry points, and within the setting panel, you can choose how many of these five entry points are active and how many contracts each entry has. Then, the tool will display your average price based on the entries and the number of contracts used at each price level.
LONG
Set your entries and the number of contracts at each price level. The indicator will then display all your long entries and at what price you will break even. The entry line changes color based on if the entry is in profit or loss.
SHORT
Set your entries and the number of contracts at each price level. The indicator will then display all your short entries and at what price you will break even. The entry line changes color based on if the entry is in profit or loss.

RAT Moving Average Crossover StrategyThis is based on general moving average crossovers but some modifications made to generate buy sell signals.
Weis pip zigzag jayyWhat you see here is the Weis pip zigzag wave plotted directly on the price chart. This script is the companion to the Weis pip wave ( ) which is plotted in the lower panel of the displayed chart and can be used as an alternate way of plotting the same results. The Weis pip zigzag wave shows how far in terms of price a Weis wave has traveled through the duration of a Weis wave. The Weis pip zigzag wave is used in combination with the Weis cumulative volume wave. The two waves must be set to the same "wave size".
To use this script you must set the wave size. Using the traditional Weis method simply enter the desired wave size in the box "Select Weis Wave Size" In this example, it is set to 5. Each wave for each security and each timeframe requires its own wave size. Although not the traditional method a more automatic way to set wave size would be to use ATR. This is not the true Weis method but it does give you similar waves and, importantly, without the hassle described above. Once the Weis wave size is set then the pip wave will be shown.
I have put a pip zigzag of a 5 point Weis wave on the bar chart - that is a different script. I have added it to allow your eye to see what a Weis wave looks like. You will notice that the wave is not in straight lines connecting wave tops to bottoms this is a function of the limitations of Pinescript version 1. This script would need to be in version 4 to allow straight lines. There are too many calculations within this script to allow conversion to Pinescript version 4 or even Version 3. I am in the process of rewriting this script to reduce the number of calculations and streamline the algorithm.
The numbers plotted on the chart are calculated to be relative numbers. The script is limited to showing only three numbers vertically. Only the highest three values of a number are shown. For example, if the highest recent pip value is 12,345 only the first 3 numerals would be displayed ie 123. But suppose there is a recent value of 691. It would not be helpful to display 691 if the other wave size is shown as 123. To give the appropriate relative value the script will show a value of 7 instead of 691. This informs you of the relative magnitude of the values. This is done automatically within the script. There is likely no need to manually override the automatically calculated value. I will create a video that demonstrates the manual override method.
What is a Weis wave? David Weis has been recognized as a Wyckoff method analyst he has written two books one of which, Trades About to Happen, describes the evolution of the now popular Weis wave. The method employed by Weis is to identify waves of price action and to compare the strength of the waves on characteristics of wave strength. Chief among the characteristics of strength is the cumulative volume of the wave. There are other markers that Weis uses as well for example how the actual price difference between the start of the Weis wave from start to finish. Weis also uses time, particularly when using a Renko chart. Weis specifically uses candle or bar closes to define all wave action ie a line chart.
David Weis did a futures io video which is a popular source of information about his method.
This is the identical script with the identical settings but without the offending links. If you want to see the pip Weis method in practice then search Weis pip wave. If you want to see Weis chart in pdf then message me and I will give a link or the Weis pdf. Why would you want to see the Weis chart for May 27, 2020? Merely to confirm the veracity of my algorithm. You could compare my Weis chart here () from the same period to the David Weis chart from May 27. Both waves are for the ES!1 4 hour chart and both for a wave size of 5.
Price Action and 3 EMAs Momentum plus Sessions FilterThis indicator plots on the chart the parameters and signals of the Price Action and 3 EMAs Momentum plus Sessions Filter Algorithmic Strategy. The strategy trades based on time-series (absolute) and relative momentum of price close, highs, lows and 3 EMAs.
I am still learning PS and therefore I have only been able to write the indicator up to the Signal generation. I plan to expand the indicator to Entry Signals as well as the full Strategy.
The strategy works best on EURUSD in the 15 minutes TF during London and New York sessions with 1 to 1 TP and SL of 30 pips with lots resulting in 3% risk of the account per trade. I have already written the full strategy in another language and platform and back tested it for ten years and it was profitable for 7 of the 10 years with average profit of 15% p.a which can be easily increased by increasing risk per trade. I have been trading it live in that platform for over two years and it is profitable.
Contributions from experienced PS coders in completing the Indicator as well as writing the Strategy and back testing it on Trading View will be appreciated.
STRATEGY AND INDICATOR PARAMETERS
Three periods of 12, 48 and 96 in the 15 min TF which are equivalent to 3, 12 and 24 hours i.e (15 min * period / 60 min) are the foundational inputs for all the parameters of the PA & 3 EMAs Momentum + SF Algo Strategy and its Indicator.
3 EMAs momentum parameters and conditions
• FastEMA = ema of 12 periods
• MedEMA = ema of 48 periods
• SlowEMA = ema of 96 periods
• All the EMAs analyse price close for up to 96 (15 min periods) equivalent to 24 hours
• There’s Upward EMA momentum if price close > FastEMA and FastEMA > MedEMA and MedEMA > SlowEMA
• There’s Downward EMA momentum if price close < FastEMA and FastEMA < MedEMA and MedEMA < SlowEMA
PA momentum parameters and conditions
• HH = Highest High of 48 periods from 1st closed bar before current bar
• LL = Lowest Low of 48 periods from 1st closed bar from current bar
• Previous HH = Highest High of 84 periods from 12th closed bar before current bar
• Previous LL = Lowest Low of 84 periods from 12th closed bar before current bar
• All the HH & LL and prevHH & prevLL are within the 96 periods from the 1st closed bar before current bar and therefore indicative of momentum during the past 24 hours
• There’s Upward PA momentum if price close > HH and HH > prevHH and LL > prevLL
• There’s Downward PA momentum if price close < LL and LL < prevLL and HH < prevHH
Signal conditions and Status (BuySignal, SellSignal or Neutral)
• The strategy generates Buy or Sell Signals if both 3 EMAs and PA momentum conditions are met for each direction and these occur during the London and New York sessions
• BuySignal if price close > FastEMA and FastEMA > MedEMA and MedEMA > SlowEMA and price close > HH and HH > prevHH and LL > prevLL and timeinrange (LDN&NY) else Neutral
• SellSignal if price close < FastEMA and FastEMA < MedEMA and MedEMA < SlowEMA and price close < LL and LL < prevLL and HH < prevHH and timeinrange (LDN&NY) else Neutral
Entry conditions and Status (EnterBuy, EnterSell or Neutral)(NOT CODED YET)
• ENTRY IS NOT AT THE SIGNAL BAR but at the current bar tick price retracement to FastEMA after the signal
• EnterBuy if current bar tick price <= FastEMA and current bar tick price > prevHH at the time of the Buy Signal
• EnterSell if current bar tick price >= FastEMA and current bar tick price > prevLL at the time of the Sell Signal
NAND PerceptronExperimental NAND Perceptron based upon Python template that aims to predict NAND Gate Outputs. A Perceptron is one of the foundational building blocks of nearly all advanced Neural Network layers and models for Algo trading and Machine Learning.
The goal behind this script was threefold:
To prove and demonstrate that an ACTUAL working neural net can be implemented in Pine, even if incomplete.
To pave the way for other traders and coders to iterate on this script and push the boundaries of Tradingview strategies and indicators.
To see if a self-contained neural network component for parameter optimization within Pinescript was hypothetically possible.
NOTE: This is a highly experimental proof of concept - this is NOT a ready-made template to include or integrate into existing strategies and indicators, yet (emphasis YET - neural networks have a lot of potential utility and potential when utilized and implemented properly).
Hardcoded NAND Gate outputs with Bias column (X0):
// NAND Gate + X0 Bias and Y-true
// X0 // X1 // X2 // Y
// 1 // 0 // 0 // 1
// 1 // 0 // 1 // 1
// 1 // 1 // 0 // 1
// 1 // 1 // 1 // 0
Column X0 is bias feature/input
Column X1 and X2 are the NAND Gate
Column Y is the y-true values for the NAND gate
yhat is the prediction at that timestep
F0,F1,F2,F3 are the Dot products of the Weights (W0,W1,W2) and the input features (X0,X1,X2)
Learning rate and activation function threshold are enabled by default as input parameters
Uncomment sections for more training iterations/epochs:
Loop optimizations would be amazing to have for a selectable length for training iterations/epochs but I'm not sure if it's possible in Pine with how this script is structured.
Error metrics and loss have not been implemented due to difficulty with script length and iterations vs epochs - I haven't been able to configure the input parameters to successfully predict the right values for all four y-true values for the NAND gate (only been able to get 3/4; If you're able to get all four predictions to be correct, let me know, please).
// //---- REFERENCE for final output
// A3 := 1, y0 true
// B3 := 1, y1 true

Baseline-C [ID: AC-P]The "AC-P" version of jiehonglim's NNFX Baseline script is my personal customized version of the NNFX Baseline concept as part of the NNFX Algorithm stack/structure for 1D Trend Trading for Forex. Everget's JMA implementation is used for the baseline smoothing method, with optional ATR bands at 1.0x and 1.5x from the baseline.
NNFX = No Nonsense Forex
Baseline = Component of the NNFX Algorithm that consists of a single moving average
Baseline ---> Meant to be used in conjunction with ATR/C1/C2/Vol Indicator/Exit Indicator as per NNFX Algorithm setup/structure. C1 is 1st Confirmation Indicator, C2 is 2nd Confirmation Indicator.
JMA (Jurik Moving Average) is used for the baseline and slow baseline.
A slow baseline option is included, but disabled by default.
The faint orange/purple lines are 1.0x/1.5x ATR from the Baseline, and are what I use as potential TP/SL targets or to evaluate when to stay out of a trade (chop/missed entry/exit/other/ATR breach), depending on the trade setup (in conjunction with C1/C2/Vol Indicator/Exit Indicator)
This script is heavily based upon jiehonglim's NNFX Baseline script for signaling, barcoloring, and ATR.
SSL Channel option included but disabled by default (Erwinbeckers SSL component)
POC (Point of Control) from Volume Profile is included/enabled by default for both the current timeframe and 12HR timeframe
03.freeman's InfoPanel Divergence Indicator was used a reference to replace the current/previous ATR information infopanel/info draw from jiehonglim's script. I'm not sure whether I like the previous way ATR info was displayed vs how I have it currently, but it's something that is completely optional:
Specifically: I am tuning this baseline/indicator for 1D trading as part of the NNFX system, for Forex.
DO NOT USE THIS INDICATOR WITHOUT PROPER TUNING/ADJUSTMENT for your timeframe and asset class.
Note about lack of alerts:
Alerts for baseline crosses (and other crosses) have been purposefully omitted for this version upon initial publication. While getting alerts for baseline crosses under certain conditions/filtered conditions that eliminate low-importance signals and crossover whipsaw would be great, it's something I'm still looking into.
SPECIFICALLY: There are entry, exit, take profit, and continuation signal components in relation to the Baseline to the rest of the NNFX Algorithm stack (ATR/C1/C2/Vol Indicator/Exit Indicator), including but limited to the "1 candle rule" and the "7 candle rule" as per NNFX.
Implementing alerts that are significant that also factor in these rules while reducing alert spam/false signals would be ideal, but it's also the HTF/Daily chart - visually, entry/exit/continuation signal alignment is easy to spot when trading 1D - alerts may be redundant/a pursuit in diminishing returns (for now).

Smart Flow Tracker [The_lurker]
Smart Flow Tracker (SFT): Advanced Order Flow Tracking Indicator
Overview
Smart Flow Tracker (SFT) is an advanced indicator designed for real-time tracking and analysis of order flows. It focuses on detecting institutional patterns, massive orders, and potential reversals through analysis of lower timeframes (Lower Timeframe) or live ticks. It provides deep insights into market behavior using a multi-layered intelligent detection system and a clear visual interface, giving traders a competitive edge.
SFT focuses on trade volumes, directions, and frequencies to uncover unusual activity that may indicate institutional intervention, massive orders, or manipulation attempts (traps).
Indicator Operation Levels
SFT operates on three main levels:
1. Microscopic Monitoring: Tracks every trade at precise timeframes (down to one second), providing visibility not available in standard timeframes.
2. Advanced Statistical Analysis: Calculates averages, deviations, patterns, and anomalies using precise mathematical algorithms.
3. Behavioral Artificial Intelligence: Recognizes behavioral patterns such as hidden institutional accumulation, manipulation attempts and traps, and potential reversal points.
Key Features
SFT features a set of advanced functions to enhance the trader's experience:
1. Intelligent Order Classification System: Classifies orders into six categories based on size and pattern:
- Standard: Normal orders with typical size.
- Significant 💎: Orders larger than average by 1.5 times.
- Major 🔥: Orders larger than average by 2.5 times.
- Massive 🐋: Orders larger than average by 3 times.
- Institutional 🏛️: Consistent patterns indicating institutional activity.
- Reversal 🔄: Large orders indicating direction change.
- Trap ⚠️: Patterns that may be price traps.
2. Institutional Patterns Detection: Tracks sequences of similar-sized orders, detects organized institutional activity, and is customizable (number of trades, variance ratio).
3. Reversals Detection: Compares recent flows with previous ones, detects direction shifts from up to down or vice versa, and operates only on large orders (Major/Massive/Institutional).
4. Traps Detection: Identifies sequences of large orders in one direction, followed by an institutional order in the opposite direction, with early alerts for false moves.
5. Flow Delta Bar: Displays the difference between buy and sell volumes as a percentage for balance, with instant updates per trade.
6. Dynamic Statistics Panel: Displays overall buy and sell ratios with real-time updates and interactive colors.
How It Works and Understanding
SFT relies on logical sequential stages for data processing:
A. Data Collection: Uses the `request.security_lower_tf()` function to extract data from a lower timeframe (like 1S) even on a higher timeframe (like 5D). For each time unit, it calculates:
- Adjusted Volume: Either normal volume or "price-weighted volume" (hlc3 * volume) based on user choice.
- Trade Direction: Compared to previous close (rise → buy, fall → sell).
B. Building Temporary Memory: Maintains a dynamic list (sizeHistory) of the last 100 trade sizes, continuously calculating the moving average (meanSize).
C. Intelligent Classification: Compares each new trade to the average:
- > 1.5 × average → Significant.

Smart Flow Tracker (SFT): مؤشر متقدم لتتبع تدفقات الأوامر
نظرة عامة
Smart Flow Tracker (SFT) مؤشر متقدم مصمم لتتبع وتحليل تدفقات الأوامر في الوقت الفعلي. يركز على كشف الأنماط المؤسسية، الأوامر الضخمة، والانعكاسات المحتملة من خلال تحليل الأطر الزمنية الأقل (Lower Timeframe) أو التيك الحي. يوفر رؤية عميقة لسلوك السوق باستخدام نظام كشف ذكي متعدد الطبقات وواجهة مرئية واضحة، مما يمنح المتداولين ميزة تنافسية.
يركز SFT على حجم الصفقات، اتجاهها، وتكرارها لكشف النشاط غير العادي الذي قد يشير إلى تدخل مؤسسات، أوامر ضخمة، أو محاولات تلاعب (فخاخ).
مستويات عمل المؤشر
يعمل SFT على ثلاثة مستويات رئيسية:
1. المراقبة المجهرية: يتتبع كل صفقة على مستوى الأطر الزمنية الدقيقة (حتى الثانية الواحدة)، مما يوفر رؤية غير متوفرة في الأطر الزمنية العادية.
2. التحليل الإحصائي المتقدم: يحسب المتوسطات، الانحرافات، الأنماط، والشذوذات باستخدام خوارزميات رياضية دقيقة.
3. الذكاء الاصطناعي السلوكي: يتعرف على أنماط سلوكية مثل التراكم المؤسسي المخفي، محاولات التلاعب والفخاخ، ونقاط الانعكاس المحتملة.
الميزات الرئيسية
يتميز SFT بمجموعة من الوظائف المتقدمة لتحسين تجربة المتداول:
1. نظام تصنيف الأوامر الذكي: يصنف الأوامر إلى ست فئات بناءً على الحجم والنمط:
- Standard (قياسي)**: أوامر عادية بحجم طبيعي.
- Significant 💎 (مهم)**: أوامر أكبر من المتوسط بـ1.5 ضعف.
- Major 🔥 (كبير)**: أوامر أكبر من المتوسط بـ2.5 ضعف.
- Massive 🐋 (ضخم)**: أوامر أكبر من المتوسط بـ3 أضعاف.
- Institutional 🏛️ (مؤسسي)**: أنماط متسقة تشير إلى نشاط مؤسسي.
- Reversal 🔄 (انعكاس)**: أوامر كبيرة تشير إلى تغيير اتجاه.
- Trap ⚠️ (فخ)**: أنماط قد تكون فخاخًا سعرية.
2. كشف الأنماط المؤسسية: يتتبع تسلسل الأوامر المتشابهة في الحجم، يكشف النشاط المؤسسي المنظم، وقابل للتخصيص (عدد الصفقات، نسبة التباين).
3. كشف الانعكاسات: يقارن التدفقات الأخيرة بالسابقة، يكشف تحول الاتجاه من صعود إلى هبوط أو العكس، ويعمل فقط على الأوامر الكبيرة (Major/Massive/Institutional).
4. كشف الفخاخ: يحدد تسلسل أوامر كبيرة في اتجاه واحد، يليها أمر مؤسسي في الاتجاه المعاكس، مع تنبيه مبكر للحركات الكاذبة.
5. شريط دلتا التدفق: يعرض الفرق بين حجم الشراء والبيع كنسبة مئوية للتوازن، مع تحديث فوري لكل صفقة.
6. لوحة إحصائيات ديناميكية: تعرض نسبة الشراء والبيع الإجمالية مع تحديث لحظي وألوان تفاعلية.
طريقة العمل والفهم
يعتمد SFT على مراحل منطقية متسلسلة لمعالجة البيانات:
أ. جمع البيانات: يستخدم دالة `request.security_lower_tf()` لاستخراج بيانات من إطار زمني أدنى (مثل 1S) حتى على إطار زمني أعلى (مثل 5D). لكل وحدة زمنية، يحسب:
- الحجم المعدّل: إما الحجم العادي (volume) أو "الحجم المرجّح بالسعر" (hlc3 * volume) حسب الاختيار.
- اتجاه الصفقة: مقارنة الإغلاق الحالي بالسابق (ارتفاع → شراء، انخفاض → بيع).
ب. بناء الذاكرة المؤقتة: يحتفظ بقائمة ديناميكية (sizeHistory) لآخر 100 حجم صفقة، ويحسب المتوسط المتحرك (meanSize) باستمرار.
ج. التصنيف الذكي: يقارن كل صفقة جديدة بالمتوسط:
- > 1.5 × المتوسط → Significant.
- > 2.5 × المتوسط → Major.
- > 3.0 × المتوسط → Massive.
- فحص الأنماط المؤسسية: عدد معين من الصفقات (مثل 5) بنسبة تباين محددة (±5%) → Institutional.
د. الكشف المتقدم:
- الانعكاس: مقارنة مجموع الشراء/البيع في فترتين متتاليتين.
- الفخ: تسلسل صفقات كبيرة في اتجاه واحد يتبعها صفقة مؤسسية معاكسة.
هـ. العرض والتنبيه: عرض النتائج في جدول محدّث تلقائيًا، مع إمكانية تفعيل تنبيهات للأحداث المميزة.

Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) - Advanced SMC [PhenLabs]📊Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI)
Version: PineScript™v6
📌Description
The Smart Money Flow Index (SMFI) is an advanced Smart Money Concepts implementation that tracks institutional trading behavior through multi-dimensional analysis. This comprehensive indicator combines volume-validated Order Block detection, Fair Value Gap identification with auto-mitigation tracking, dynamic Liquidity Zone mapping, and Break of Structure/Change of Character detection into a unified system.
Unlike basic SMC indicators, SMFI employs a proprietary scoring algorithm that weighs five critical factors: Order Block strength (validated by volume), Fair Value Gap size and recency, proximity to Liquidity Zones, market structure alignment (BOS/CHoCH), and multi-timeframe confluence. This produces a Smart Money Score (0-100) where readings above 70 represent optimal institutional setup conditions.
🚀Points of Innovation
Volume-Validated Order Block Detection – Only displays Order Blocks when formation candle exceeds customizable volume multiplier (default 1.5x average), filtering weak zones and highlighting true institutional accumulation/distribution
Auto-Mitigation Tracking System – Fair Value Gaps and Order Blocks automatically update status when price mitigates them, with visual distinction between active and filled zones preventing trades on dead levels
Proprietary Smart Money Score Algorithm – Combines weighted factors (OB strength 25%, FVG proximity 20%, Liquidity 20%, Structure 20%, MTF 15%) into single 0-100 confidence rating updating in real-time
ATR-Based Adaptive Calculations – All distance measurements use 14-period Average True Range ensuring consistent function across any instrument, timeframe, or volatility regime without manual recalibration
Dynamic Age Filtering – Automatically removes liquidity levels and FVGs older than configurable thresholds preventing chart clutter while maintaining relevant levels
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Integration – Analyzes higher timeframe bias with customizable multipliers (2-10x) and incorporates HTF trend direction into Smart Money Score for institutional alignment
🔧Core Components
Order Block Engine – Detects institutional supply/demand zones using characteristic patterns (down-move-then-strong-up for bullish, up-move-then-strong-down for bearish) with minimum volume threshold validation, tracks mitigation when price closes through zones
Fair Value Gap Scanner – Identifies price imbalances where current candle's low/high leaves gap with two-candle-prior high/low, filters by minimum size percentage, monitors 50% fill for mitigation status
Liquidity Zone Mapper – Uses pivot high/low detection with configurable lookback to mark swing points where stop losses cluster, extends horizontal lines to visualize sweep targets, manages lifecycle through age-based removal
Market Structure Analyzer – Tracks pivot progression to identify trend through higher-highs/higher-lows (bullish) or lower-highs/lower-lows (bearish), detects Break of Structure and Change of Character for trend/reversal confirmation
Scoring Calculation Engine – Evaluates proximity to nearest Order Blocks using ATR-normalized distance, assesses FVG recency and distance, calculates liquidity proximity with age weighting, combines structure bias and MTF trend into smoothed final score
🔥Key Features
Customizable Display Limits – Control maximum Order Blocks (1-10), Liquidity Zones (1-10), and FVG age (10-200 bars) to maintain clean charts focused on most relevant institutional levels
Gradient Strength Visualization – All zones render with transparency-adjustable coloring where stronger/newer zones appear more solid and weaker/older zones fade progressively providing instant visual hierarchy
Educational Label System – Optional labels identify each zone type (Bullish OB, Bearish OB, Bullish FVG, Bearish FVG, BOS) with color-coded text helping traders learn SMC concepts through practical application
Real-Time Smart Money Score Dashboard – Top-right table displays current score (0-100) with color coding (green >70, yellow 30-70, red <30) plus trend arrow for at-a-glance confidence assessment
Comprehensive Alert Suite – Configurable notifications for Order Block formation, Fair Value Gap detection, Break of Structure events, Change of Character signals, and high Smart Money Score readings (>70)
Buy/Sell Signal Integration – Automatically plots triangle markers when Smart Money Score exceeds 70 with aligned market structure and fresh Order Block detection providing clear entry signals
🎨Visualization
Order Block Boxes – Shaded rectangles extend from formation bar spanning high-to-low of institutional candle, bullish zones in green, bearish in red, with customizable transparency (80-98%)
Fair Value Gap Zones – Rectangular areas marking imbalances, active FVGs display in bright colors with adjustable transparency, mitigated FVGs switch to gray preventing trades on filled zones
Liquidity Level Lines – Dashed horizontal lines extend from pivot creation points, swing highs in bearish color (short targets above), swing lows in bullish color (long targets below), opacity decreases with age
Structure Labels – "BOS" labels appear above/below price when Break of Structure confirmed, colored by direction (green bullish, red bearish), positioned at 1% beyond highs/lows for visibility
Educational Info Panel – Bottom-right table explains key terminology (OB, FVG, BOS, CHoCH) and score interpretation (>70 high probability) with semi-transparent background for readability

✅Best Use Cases
Order Block Retest Entries – After Break of Structure, wait for price retrace into fresh bullish Order Block with Smart Money Score >70, enter long on zone reaction targeting next liquidity level
Fair Value Gap Retracement Trading – When price creates FVG during strong move then retraces, enter as price approaches unfilled gap expecting institutional orders to continue trend
Liquidity Sweep Reversals – Monitor price approaching swing high/low liquidity zones against prevailing Smart Money Score trend, after stop hunt sweep watch for rejection into premium Order Block/FVG
Multi-Timeframe Confluence Setups – Identify alignment when current timeframe Order Block coincides with higher timeframe FVG plus MTF analysis showing matching trend bias
Break of Structure Continuations – After BOS confirms trend direction, trade pullbacks to nearest Order Block or FVG in direction of structure break using Smart Money Score >70 as entry filter
Change of Character Reversal Plays – When CHoCH detected indicating potential reversal, look for Smart Money Score pivot with opposing Order Block formation then enter on structure confirmation
⚠️Limitations
Lagging Pivot Calculations – Pivot-based features (Liquidity Zones, Market Structure) require bars to right of pivot for confirmation, meaning these elements identify levels retrospectively with delay equal to lookback period
Whipsaw in Ranging Markets – During choppy conditions, Order Blocks fail frequently and structure breaks produce false signals as Smart Money Score fluctuates without clear institutional bias, best used in trending markets
Volume Data Dependency – Order Block volume validation requires accurate volume data which may be incomplete on Forex pairs or limited in crypto exchange feeds
Subjectivity in Scoring Weights – Proprietary 25-20-20-20-15 weighting reflects general institutional behavior but may not optimize for specific instruments or market regimes, user cannot adjust factor weights
Visual Complexity on Lower Timeframes – Sub-hour timeframes generate excessive zones creating cluttered charts, requires aggressive display limit reduction and higher minimum thresholds
No Fundamental Integration – Indicator analyzes purely technical price action and volume without incorporating economic events, news catalysts, or fundamental shifts that override technical levels
💡What Makes This Unique
Unified SMC Ecosystem – Unlike indicators displaying Order Blocks OR FVGs OR Liquidity separately, SMFI combines all three institutional concepts plus market structure into single cohesive system
Proprietary Confidence Scoring – Rather than manual setup assessment, automated Smart Money Score quantifies probability by weighting five institutional dimensions into actionable 0-100 rating
Volume-Filtered Quality – Eliminates weak Order Blocks forming without institutional volume confirmation, ensuring displayed zones represent genuine accumulation/distribution
Adaptive Lifecycle Management – Automatically updates mitigation status and removes aged zones preventing trades on dead levels through continuous validity and age monitoring
Educational Integration – Built-in tooltips, labeled zones, and reference panel make indicator functional for both learning Smart Money Concepts and executing strategies
🔬How It Works
Order Block Detection – Scans for patterns where strong directional move follows counter-move creating last down-candle before rally (bullish OB) or last up-candle before sell-off (bearish OB), validates formations only when candle exhibits volume exceeding configurable multiple (default 1.5x) of 20-bar average volume
Fair Value Gap Identification – Compares current candle’s high/low against two-candles-prior low/high to detect price imbalances, calculates gap size as percentage of close and filters micro-gaps below minimum threshold (default 0.3%), monitors whether subsequent price fills 50% triggering mitigation status
Liquidity Zone Mapping – Employs pivot detection using configurable lookback (default 50 bars) to identify swing highs/lows where retail stops cluster, extends horizontal reference lines from pivot creation and applies age-based filtering to remove stale zones
Market Structure Analysis – Tracks pivot progression using structure-specific lookback (default 5 bars) to determine trend, confirms uptrend when new pivot high exceeds previous by minimum move percentage, detects Break of Structure when price breaks recent pivot level, flags Change of Character for potential reversals
Multi-Timeframe Confluence – When enabled, requests security data from higher timeframe (current TF × HTF multiplier, default 4x), compares HTF close against HTF 20-period MA to determine bias, contributes ±50 points to score ensuring alignment with institutional positioning on superior timeframe
Smart Money Score Calculation – Evaluates Order Block component via ATR-normalized distance producing max 100-point contribution weighted at 25%, assesses FVG factor through age penalty and distance at 20% weight, calculates Liquidity proximity at 20%, incorporates structure bias (±50-100 points) at 20%, adds MTF component at 15%, applies 3-period smoothing to reduce volatility
Visual Rendering and Lifecycle – Draws Order Block boxes, Fair Value Gap rectangles with color coding (green/red active, gray mitigated), extends liquidity dashed lines with fade-by-age opacity, plots BOS labels, displays Smart Money Score dashboard, continuously updates checking mitigation conditions and removing elements exceeding age/display limits
💡Note:
The Smart Money Flow Index combines multiple Smart Money Concepts into unified institutional order flow analysis. For optimal results, use the Smart Money Score as confluence filter rather than standalone entry signal – scores above 70 indicate high-probability setups but should be combined with risk management, higher timeframe bias, and market regime understanding.
Aibuyzone Elliott Wave SuiteOverview
This study approximates Elliott-style wave structure using swing pivots. It labels primary waves (1–5), tracks subwaves (1–5) inside them, and plots future projection bands derived from the size of a recent primary leg. A small floating dashboard summarizes the current wave number, bias (bullish/bearish) based on the last leg, and a projection price range.
Note: This tool is educational. Wave detection is algorithmic and approximate; it does not identify textbook Elliott patterns or validate rule sets. Manage risk independently.
What it draws
Primary wave labels (1–5): Based on higher swing length pivots (major turns).
Subwave labels (1–5): Based on shorter swing length pivots (minor turns).
Zigzag connectors: Simple lines between the latest primary pivots for structure visualization.
Projection bands: Three dotted horizontal levels forward from the last primary pivot, using user-defined extension multipliers.
Floating dashboard:
Current Wave: Latest primary wave count (1–5).
Bias: “Bullish Leg” (last pivot was a low) or “Bearish Leg” (last pivot was a high), or “Unknown” if insufficient data.
Proj Range: Min–max of the three projection levels.
Key Inputs
Swing Structure
Primary Swing Length: Pivot left/right bars for major swings. Larger values = fewer, cleaner waves.
Subwave Swing Length: Pivot left/right bars for minor swings. Smaller values = more frequent subwave labels.
Max Saved Swing Points: Memory limit to prevent clutter.
Future Projections
Show Projection Levels: Toggle projection lines on/off.
Use Last Nth Leg For Size: Which recent primary leg to use for measuring projection distance (1 = most recent).
Extension 1 / 2 / 3: Multipliers applied to the measured leg (e.g., 1.0, 1.618, 2.0).
Style
Colors and text sizes for primary and subwave labels, and projection lines.
Dashboard
Show Dashboard: Toggle table on/off.
Dashboard Position: Top-Left / Top-Right / Bottom-Left / Bottom-Right.
How projections are computed
The script measures the price distance of a recent primary leg (from pivot A to pivot B).
If the last pivot is a low, projections extend upward; if the last pivot is a high, projections extend downward.
The three extension inputs (e.g., 1.0 / 1.618 / 2.0) are applied to that leg distance to create dotted forward levels.
The dashboard’s Proj Range displays the min–max of those three levels.
Using the study (suggested workflow)
Choose timeframe appropriate for your style (e.g., higher timeframes for cleaner structure; lower timeframes for detail).
Tune swing lengths:
Increase Primary Swing Length on noisy charts to stabilize wave counts.
Adjust Subwave Swing Length to reveal or simplify internal moves.
Read the dashboard:
Current Wave shows where the latest primary count sits (1–5).
Bias summarizes the direction of the last measured leg only; it is not a trend system.
Proj Range offers a coarse price band derived from your extensions.
Context check: Combine wave labeling with your own market context (trend, structure, volatility) before making decisions.
Risk management: Use your own stop/target methods. The projection lines are not signals.
Practical tips
Clutter control: If labels overlap on volatile symbols, try larger swing lengths or reduce label text sizes in Style.
Scaling: On very small tick sizes, increasing the internal label price offset can improve label readability.
Projection sensitivity: Changing Use Last Nth Leg can materially alter levels; confirm they match your intent.
Non-determinism across timeframes: Different timeframes and symbols will produce different pivot sequences and counts.
Limitations & important notes
Approximation: This does not enforce all Elliott rules (e.g., alternation, wave 4 overlap constraints, channeling). It only labels swings numerically.
Repainting of labels: Pivot-based waves confirm after enough bars have printed to the right of a high/low. Labels are placed when pivots confirm; they don’t predict pivots.
Not a signal generator: No entries/exits/alerts are included; add your own trade plan and risk controls.
Data sufficiency: Early bars or sparse data may show “Unknown” bias or “N/A” projections until adequate pivots exist.
Clean-chart publishing guidance (to stay compliant)
Use a chart that clearly shows this script’s outputs without unrelated indicators.
Keep the description educational. Avoid performance claims, guarantees, or language implying certainty.
Do not include links, promotions, prices, giveaways, contact details, or solicitations.
Disclose that labels and projections are algorithmic approximations and for educational use.

Advanced Liquidity Fibonacci Zones - Ace of TradesAdvanced Liquidity Fibonacci Zones – Ace of Trades Theory
How to Use This Script:
This advanced indicator visualizes key "liquidity zones" based on custom Fibonacci levels, reflecting the real areas where market makers, institutions, and advanced algorithms manage risk—far beyond basic retail “golden ratio” retracements. Unlike traditional tools, these zones align with the market maker theory popularized by Ace of Trades (@acethebully on X).
How to Paint the Highs and Lows
Select the Indicator ("Advanced Liquidity Fibonacci Zones – Ace of Trades Theory") and add it to your chart.
Use the two input fields to manually mark your key swing points:
Click the “Swing Low (0.0 Level)” input, then select a price bar on your chart for the swing low.
Click the “Swing High (1.0 Level)” input, then select the bar for your swing high.
These anchors will paint the exact price range that all fib zones are projected between.
The script will automatically draw all major liquidity/retracement/extension zones as colored bands or boxes across your chart, extended into the future for clear reference.
What Do the Zones Mean?
Zones are based on Ace of Trades' market maker theory. They're not just “lines”—they show where professional liquidity providers, algorithms, and institutional traders strategically rebalance, accumulate, or distribute.
Each zone is labeled with its precise fib ratio and price, with zone descriptions acknowledging their theoretical function (e.g., Golden Band, Momentum Pullback, Stop-Hunt Extension, Blow-Off Range, etc).
Best Practices
Use the script to identify areas where liquidity is expected to pool (for reaction or continuation), rather than just following retail golden ratios.
Paint your swing highs/lows cleanly—from the local low before an impulse, to the most relevant high after a move (or vice versa for down moves).
Observe how price reacts at these boundaries and plan entries/exits accordingly.
Special thanks and all intellectual credit to Ace of Trades (@acethebully on X) for his public education and original market maker insights.
This tool was developed to fully honor and operationalize the liquidity geometry theory from his work.
Lord Mathew ATSThe Smart Money Structure & Pattern Analyzer is a complete, all-in-one visual trading system that brings together every essential element of Smart Money Concepts (SMC), ICT methodology, and candlestick psychology into one powerful indicator.

📅 Institutional Reference Points:
Plots previous week & day open (PWO, PDO), previous week & day high (PWH, PWH), previous week & day low (PWL, PDL), previous week & day close (PWC, PDC) and optionally previous day levels to help frame bias.
🎨 Customizable Design:
Toggle any feature, change colors, and set alerts when multiple Smart Money signals align for cleaner, faster decision-making.
How It Works
Add the indicator to your chart on any timeframe or market.
The algorithm automatically detects structure, liquidity, and imbalance zones.
Candlestick patterns are highlighted when they form near high-probability areas (like OBs or FVGs).
When confluence occurs such as a liquidity grab, FVG fill, and bullish engulfing candle—the indicator provides a visual signal zone for your confirmation-based entries.
You can refine your trades using higher-timeframe bias (HTF order flow) and lower-timeframe execution (LTF confirmation).
Best For
Traders using ICT, Smart Money Concepts, or price-action systems.
Intraday and swing traders looking for clear, data-driven chart structure.
Traders who want to simplify confluence analysis and focus on precision execution.
Why It Stands Out
Unlike standard candlestick or pattern scanners, this indicator merges institutional market logic with technical candle behavior, allowing traders to see where smart money might be entering or exiting positions.
It’s not about random signals it’s about context, structure, and confirmation.
Every feature in this indicator is built around the principle of liquidity engineering:
price creates liquidity, grabs it, and moves toward imbalance or order flow efficiency.
By merging that institutional logic with candlestick patterns, this tool gives traders an edge in recognizing not only where to trade but why price is reacting in that exact area.

Smart Money Volume Tools | Lyro RSSmart Money Volume Tools | Lyro RS
Overview
The Smart Money Volume Tools (SMVT) is a multi-dimensional volume-based analysis suite designed to visualize the interplay between price action, moving averages, and smart money behavior.
By integrating dynamic moving averages, volume normalization, and multi-timeframe intelligence, SMVT helps traders identify when institutional (smart money) or retail participants are influencing price movements — all in a single, adaptive display.
Unlike traditional oscillators or trend tools, SMVT dynamically adjusts its sensitivity and thresholds based on volume z-scores and normalized momentum, revealing true intent behind price shifts rather than reacting to them.
🔹 Key Features
4 Core Analytical Modes:
Trail Mode – Identifies directional bias using dynamic volume-weighted trails based on adaptive ATR multipliers.
Volume Mode – Displays normalized volume strength vs. price trend, highlighting volume-driven expansions.
Smart Money Volume Mode – Detects institutional buying/selling spikes from lower timeframes using volume z-score outliers.
Retail Money Volume Mode – Contrasts retail-driven impulses to visualize crowd behavior and exhaustion points.
Dynamic Volume Normalization: Converts volume impulses into a 0–100 range using a sigmoid function for smoother interpretation.
Multi-Timeframe Intelligence: Automatically reads lower timeframe volume data to distinguish smart vs. retail activity.
Adaptive Color Systems: Multiple palette modes ( Classic , Mystic , Accented , Royal ) or full custom color control.
Signal Table Overlay: Built-in real-time module summary showing status for Trail , Volume , Smart Money , and Retail Money — right on your chart.
🔹 How It Works
Volume Strength Calculation:
Calculates relative volume strength using a moving average baseline, then normalizes the result via a sigmoid function — mapping activity into a clean 0–100 range.
Smart Money Detection:
Scans lower timeframe data for extreme volume z-scores ( z > 2 ) to pinpoint institutional accumulation or distribution zones.
Trail Logic:
Uses adaptive upper and lower trails based on ATR and volume intensity to track volatility-adjusted trend direction.
Color Logic:
Trail, candle, and fill colors change dynamically according to the active signal type and selected palette — making directional bias instantly visible.
🔹 Practical Use
Swing Confirmation (Trail Mode): Confirms sustained bullish or bearish momentum supported by volume, ideal for trailing positions and managing exits.
Volume Expansion (Volume Mode): Highlights key moments when institutional liquidity pushes price before visible breakout confirmation.
Smart vs. Retail Divergence: Identify conflicts between retail activity and smart money to detect exhaustion or reversal points early.

MESA Adaptive Ehlers Flow | AlphaNattMESA Adaptive Ehlers Flow | AlphaNatt
An advanced adaptive indicator based on John Ehlers' MESA (Maximum Entropy Spectrum Analysis) algorithm that automatically adjusts to market cycles in real-time, providing superior trend identification with minimal lag across all market conditions.
🎯 What Makes This Indicator Revolutionary?
Unlike traditional moving averages with fixed parameters, this indicator uses Hilbert Transform mathematics to detect the dominant market cycle and adapts its responsiveness accordingly:
Automatically detects market cycles using advanced signal processing
MAMA (MESA Adaptive Moving Average) adapts from fast to slow based on cycle phase
FAMA (Following Adaptive Moving Average) provides confirmation signals
Dynamic volatility bands that expand and contract with cycle detection
Zero manual optimization required - the indicator tunes itself
📊 Core Components
1. MESA Adaptive Moving Average (MAMA)
The MAMA is the crown jewel of adaptive indicators. It uses the Hilbert Transform to measure the market's dominant cycle and adjusts its smoothing factor in real-time:
During trending phases: Responds quickly to capture moves
During choppy phases: Smooths heavily to filter noise
Transition is automatic and seamless based on price action
Parameters:
Fast Limit: Maximum responsiveness (default: 0.5) - how fast the indicator can adapt
Slow Limit: Minimum responsiveness (default: 0.05) - maximum smoothing during consolidation
2. Following Adaptive Moving Average (FAMA)
The FAMA is a slower version of MAMA that follows the primary signal. The relationship between MAMA and FAMA provides powerful trend confirmation:
MAMA > FAMA: Bullish trend in progress
MAMA < FAMA: Bearish trend in progress
Crossovers signal potential trend changes
3. Hilbert Transform Cycle Detection
The indicator employs sophisticated DSP (Digital Signal Processing) techniques:
Detects the dominant cycle period (1.5 to 50 bars)
Measures phase relationships in the price data
Calculates adaptive alpha values based on cycle dynamics
Continuously updates as market character changes
⚡ Key Features
Adaptive Alpha Calculation
The indicator's "intelligence" comes from its adaptive alpha:
Alpha dynamically adjusts between Fast Limit and Slow Limit based on the rate of phase change in the market cycle. Rapid phase changes trigger faster adaptation, while stable cycles maintain smoother response.
Dynamic Volatility Bands
Unlike static bands, these adapt to both ATR volatility AND the current cycle state:
Bands widen when the indicator detects fast adaptation (trending)
Bands narrow during slow adaptation (consolidation)
Band Multiplier controls overall width (default: 1.5)
Provides context-aware support and resistance
Intelligent Color Coding
Cyan: Bullish regime (MAMA > FAMA and price > MAMA)
Magenta: Bearish regime (MAMA < FAMA and price < MAMA)
Gray: Neutral/transitional state
📈 Trading Strategies
Trend Following Strategy
The MESA indicator excels at identifying and riding strong trends while automatically reducing sensitivity during choppy periods.
Entry Signals:
Long: MAMA crosses above FAMA with price closing above MAMA
Short: MAMA crosses below FAMA with price closing below MAMA
Exit/Management:
Exit longs when MAMA crosses below FAMA
Exit shorts when MAMA crosses above FAMA
Use dynamic bands as trailing stop references
Mean Reversion Strategy
When price extends beyond the dynamic bands during established trends, look for bounces back toward the MAMA line.
Setup Conditions:
Strong trend confirmed by MAMA/FAMA alignment
Price touches or exceeds outer band
Enter on first sign of reversal toward MAMA
Target: Return to MAMA line or opposite band
Cycle-Based Swing Trading
The indicator's cycle detection makes it ideal for swing trading:
Enter on MAMA/FAMA crossovers
Hold through the detected cycle period
Exit on counter-crossover or band extremes
Works exceptionally well on 4H to Daily timeframes
🔬 Technical Background
The Hilbert Transform
The Hilbert Transform is a mathematical operation used in signal processing to extract instantaneous phase and frequency information from a signal. In trading applications:
Separates trend from cycle components
Identifies the dominant market cycle without curve-fitting
Provides leading indicators of trend changes
MESA Algorithm Components
Smoothing: 4-bar weighted moving average for noise reduction
Detrending: Removes linear price trend to isolate cycles
InPhase & Quadrature: Orthogonal components for phase measurement
Homodyne Discriminator: Calculates instantaneous period
Adaptive Alpha: Converts period to smoothing factor
MAMA/FAMA: Final adaptive moving averages
⚙️ Optimization Guide
Fast Limit (0.1 - 0.9)
Higher values (0.5-0.9): More responsive, better for volatile markets and lower timeframes
Lower values (0.1-0.3): Smoother response, better for stable markets and higher timeframes
Default 0.5: Balanced for most applications
Slow Limit (0.01 - 0.1)
Higher values (0.05-0.1): Less smoothing during consolidation, more signals
Lower values (0.01-0.03): Heavy smoothing during chop, fewer but cleaner signals
Default 0.05: Good noise filtering while maintaining responsiveness
Band Multiplier (0.5 - 3.0)
Adjust based on instrument volatility
Backtest to find optimal value for your specific market
1.5 works well for most forex and equity indices
Consider higher values (2.0-2.5) for cryptocurrencies
🎨 Visual Interpretation
The gradient visualization shows probability zones around the MESA line:
MESA line: The adaptive trend center
Band expansion: Indicates strong cycle detection and trending
Band contraction: Indicates consolidation or ranging market
Color intensity: Shows confidence in trend direction
💡 Best Practices
Let it adapt: Give the indicator 50+ bars to properly calibrate to the market
Combine timeframes: Use higher timeframe MESA for trend bias, lower for entries
Respect the bands: Price rarely stays outside bands for extended periods
Watch for compression: Narrow bands often precede explosive moves
Volume confirmation: Combine with volume for higher probability setups
📊 Optimal Timeframes
15m - 1H: Day trading with Fast Limit 0.6-0.8
4H - Daily: Swing trading with Fast Limit 0.4-0.6 (recommended)
Weekly: Position trading with Fast Limit 0.2-0.4
⚠️ Important Considerations
The indicator needs time to "learn" the market - avoid trading the first 50 bars after applying
Extreme gap events can temporarily disrupt cycle calculations
Works best in markets with detectable cyclical behavior
Less effective during news events or extreme volatility spikes
Consider the detected cycle period for position holding times
🔍 What Makes MESA Superior?
Compared to traditional indicators:
vs. Fixed MAs: Automatically adjusts to market conditions instead of using one-size-fits-all parameters
vs. Other Adaptive MAs: Uses true DSP mathematics rather than simple volatility adjustments
vs. Manual Optimization: Continuously re-optimizes itself in real-time
vs. Lagging Indicators: Hilbert Transform provides earlier trend change detection
🎓 Understanding Adaptation
The magic of MESA is that it solves the eternal dilemma of technical analysis: be fast and get whipsawed in chop, or be smooth and miss the early move. MESA does both by detecting when to be fast and when to be smooth.
Adaptation in Action:
Strong trend starts → MESA quickly detects phase change → Fast Limit kicks in → Early entry
Trend continues → Phase stabilizes → MESA maintains moderate speed → Smooth ride
Consolidation begins → Phase changes slow → Slow Limit engages → Whipsaw avoidance
🚀 Advanced Applications
Multi-timeframe confluence: Use MESA on 3 timeframes for high-probability setups
Divergence detection: Watch for MAMA/price divergences at band extremes
Cycle period analysis: The internal period calculation can guide position duration
Band squeeze trading: Narrow bands + MAMA/FAMA cross = high-probability breakout

T3 [DCAUT]█ T3
📊 INDICATOR OVERVIEW
The T3 Moving Average is a smoothing indicator developed by Tim Tillson and published in Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine (January 1998). The algorithm applies Generalized DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average) recursively three times, creating a six-pole filtering effect that aims to balance noise reduction with responsiveness while minimizing lag relative to price changes.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Generalized DEMA (GD) Function:
The core building block is the Generalized DEMA function, which combines two exponential moving averages with weights controlled by the volume factor:
GD(input, v) = EMA(input) × (1 + v) - EMA(EMA(input)) × v
Where v is the volume factor parameter (default 0.7). This weighted combination reduces lag while maintaining smoothness by extrapolating beyond the first EMA using the double-smoothed EMA as a reference.
T3 Calculation Process:
T3 applies the GD function three times recursively:
T3 = GD(GD(GD(Price, v), v), v)
This triple nesting creates a six-pole smoothing effect (each GD applies two EMA operations, resulting in 2 × 3 = 6 total EMA calculations). The cascading refinement progressively filters noise while preserving trend information.
Step-by-Step Breakdown:
First GD application: GD1 = EMA(Price) × (1 + v) - EMA(EMA(Price)) × v - Creates initial smoothed series with lag reduction
Second GD application: GD2 = EMA(GD1) × (1 + v) - EMA(EMA(GD1)) × v - Further refines the smoothing while maintaining responsiveness
Third GD application: T3 = EMA(GD2) × (1 + v) - EMA(EMA(GD2)) × v - Final refinement produces the T3 output
Volume Factor Impact:
The volume factor (v) is the key parameter controlling the balance between smoothness and responsiveness. Tim Tillson recommended v = 0.7 as the optimal default value.
Lower volume factors (v closer to 0.0): Increase the extrapolation effect, making T3 more responsive to price changes but potentially more sensitive to noise.
Higher volume factors (v closer to 1.0): Reduce the extrapolation effect, producing smoother output with less sensitivity to short-term fluctuations but slightly more lag.
The recursive application of the volume factor through three GD stages creates a nonlinear filtering effect that achieves superior lag reduction compared to traditional moving averages of equivalent smoothness.
📊 SIGNAL INTERPRETATION
Trend Direction Signals:
Green Line (T3 Rising): Smoothed trend line is rising, may indicate uptrend, consider bullish opportunities when confirmed by other factors
Red Line (T3 Falling): Smoothed trend line is falling, may indicate downtrend, consider bearish opportunities when confirmed by other factors
Gray Line (T3 Flat): Smoothed trend line is flat, indicates unclear trend or consolidation phase
Price Crossover Signals:
Price Crosses Above T3: Price breaks above smoothed trend line, may be bullish signal, requires confirmation from other indicators
Price Crosses Below T3: Price breaks below smoothed trend line, may be bearish signal, requires confirmation from other indicators
Price Position Relative to T3: Price sustained above T3 may indicate uptrend, sustained below may indicate downtrend
Supporting Analysis Signals:
T3 Slope Angle: Steeper slopes indicate stronger trend momentum, flatter slopes suggest weakening trends
Price Deviation: Significant price separation from T3 may indicate overextension, watch for pullback or reversal
Dynamic Support/Resistance: T3 line can serve as dynamic support (in uptrends) or resistance (in downtrends) reference
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Common Usage Patterns:
The T3 Moving Average can be incorporated into trading analysis in various ways. These represent common approaches used by market participants, though effectiveness varies by market conditions and requires individual testing:
Trend Filtering:
T3 can be used as a trend filter by observing the relationship between price and the T3 line. The color-coded slope (green for rising, red for falling, gray for sideways) provides visual feedback about the current trend direction of the smoothed series.
Price Crossover Analysis:
Some traders monitor crossovers between price and the T3 line as potential indication points. When price crosses the T3 line, it may suggest a change in the relationship between current price action and the smoothed trend.
Multi-Timeframe Observation:
T3 can be applied to multiple timeframes simultaneously. Observing alignment or divergence between different timeframe T3 indicators may provide context about trend consistency across time scales.
Dynamic Reference Level:
The T3 line can serve as a dynamic reference level for price action analysis. Price distance from T3, price reactions when approaching T3, and the behavior of price relative to the T3 line can all be incorporated into market analysis frameworks.
Application Considerations:
Any trading application should be thoroughly tested on historical data before implementation
T3 performance characteristics vary across different market conditions and asset types
The indicator provides smoothed trend information but does not predict future price movements
Combining T3 with other analytical tools and market context improves analysis quality
Risk management practices remain essential regardless of the analytical approach used
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
Source Selection:
Close Price (Default): Standard choice for end-of-period trend analysis, reduces intrabar noise
HL2 (High+Low)/2: Provides balanced view of price action, considers full bar range
HLC3 or OHLC4: Incorporates more price information, may provide smoother results
Selection Impact: Different sources affect signal timing and smoothness characteristics
Length Configuration:
Shorter periods: More responsive, faster reaction, frequent signals, but higher false signal risk in choppy markets
Longer periods: Smoother output, fewer signals, better for long-term trends, but slower response
Default 14 periods is a common baseline, but optimal length varies by asset, timeframe, and market conditions
Parameter selection should be determined through backtesting rather than general recommendations
Volume Factor Configuration:
Lower values (closer to 0.0): Increase responsiveness but also noise sensitivity
Higher values (closer to 1.0): Increase smoothness but slightly more lag
Default 0.7 (Tim Tillson's recommendation) provides good balance for most applications
Optimal value depends on signal frequency versus reliability preference, test for specific use case
Parameter Optimization Approach:
There are no universal "best" parameter values - optimal settings depend on the specific asset, timeframe, market regime, and trading strategy
Start with default values (Length: 14, Volume Factor: 0.7) and adjust based on observed performance in your target market
Conduct systematic backtesting across different market conditions to evaluate parameter sensitivity
Consider that parameters optimized for historical data may not perform identically in future market conditions
Monitor performance and be prepared to adjust parameters as market characteristics evolve
📈 DESIGN FEATURES & MARKET ADAPTATION
Algorithm Design Features:
Simple Moving Average (SMA): Equal weighting across lookback period
Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Exponentially decreasing weights on historical prices
T3 Moving Average: Recursive Generalized DEMA with adjustable volume factor
Market Condition Adaptation:
Trending markets: Smoothed indicators generally align more closely with sustained directional movement
Ranging markets: All moving averages may generate more crossover signals during non-trending periods
Volatile conditions: Higher smoothing parameters reduce short-term sensitivity but increase lag
Indicator behavior relative to market conditions should be evaluated for specific applications
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes. The T3 Moving Average has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. Like all trend-following indicators, its performance varies with market conditions, and past signal characteristics do not guarantee future results.
Key Points:
T3 is a lagging indicator that responds to price changes rather than predicting future movements
Signals should be confirmed with other technical tools and market context
Parameters should be optimized for specific market and timeframe
Risk management and position sizing are essential
Market regime changes can affect indicator effectiveness
Test strategies thoroughly on historical data before live implementation
Consider broader market context and fundamental factors
MAMA [DCAUT]█ MAMA (MESA Adaptive Moving Average)
📊 OVERVIEW
The MESA Adaptive Moving Average (MAMA) represents an advanced implementation of John F. Ehlers' adaptive moving average system using the Hilbert Transform Discriminator. This indicator automatically adjusts to market cycles, providing superior responsiveness compared to traditional fixed-period moving averages while maintaining smoothness.
MAMA dynamically calculates two lines: the fast-adapting MAMA line and the following FAMA (Following Adaptive Moving Average) line. The system's core strength lies in its ability to automatically detect and adapt to the dominant market cycle, reducing lag during trending periods while providing stability during consolidation phases.
🎯 CORE CONCEPTS
Signal Interpretation:
• MAMA above FAMA: Indicates bullish trend momentum with the fast line leading upward movement
• MAMA below FAMA: Suggests bearish trend momentum with the fast line leading downward movement
• Golden Cross: MAMA crossing above FAMA signals potential upward momentum shift
• Death Cross: MAMA crossing below FAMA indicates potential downward momentum shift
• Line Convergence: MAMA and FAMA approaching each other suggests trend consolidation or potential reversal
Primary Applications:
• Trend Following: Enhanced responsiveness to trend changes compared to traditional moving averages
• Crossover Signals: MAMA/FAMA crossovers for identifying potential entry and exit points
• Cycle Analysis: Automatic adaptation to market's dominant cycle characteristics
• Reduced Lag: Minimized delay in trend detection while maintaining signal smoothness
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Hilbert Transform Discriminator Technology:
The MAMA system employs John F. Ehlers' Hilbert Transform Discriminator, a sophisticated signal processing technique borrowed from telecommunications engineering. The Hilbert Transform creates a complex representation of the price series by generating a 90-degree phase-shifted version of the original signal, enabling precise cycle measurement.
The discriminator analyzes the instantaneous phase relationships between the original price series and its Hilbert Transform counterpart. This mathematical relationship reveals the dominant cycle period present in the market data at each point in time, forming the foundation for adaptive smoothing.
Instantaneous Period Calculation:
The algorithm computes the instantaneous period using the arctangent of the ratio between the Hilbert Transform and the original price series. This calculation produces a real-time measurement of the market's dominant cycle, typically ranging from short-term noise cycles to longer-term trend cycles.
The instantaneous period measurement undergoes additional smoothing to prevent erratic behavior from single-bar anomalies. This smoothed period value becomes the basis for calculating the adaptive alpha coefficient that controls the moving average's responsiveness.
Dynamic Alpha Coefficient System:
The adaptive alpha calculation represents the core mathematical innovation of MAMA. The alpha coefficient is derived from the instantaneous period measurement and constrained within the user-defined fast and slow limits.
The mathematical relationship converts the measured cycle period into an appropriate smoothing factor: shorter detected cycles result in higher alpha values (increased responsiveness), while longer cycles produce lower alpha values (increased stability). This creates an automatic adaptation mechanism that responds to changing market conditions.
MAMA/FAMA Calculation Process:
The MAMA line applies the dynamically calculated alpha coefficient to an exponential moving average formula: MAMA = alpha × Price + (1 - alpha) × MAMA . The FAMA line then applies a secondary smoothing operation to the MAMA line, creating a following average that provides confirmation signals.
This dual-line approach ensures that the fast-adapting MAMA line captures trend changes quickly, while the FAMA line offers a smoother confirmation signal, reducing the likelihood of acting on temporary price fluctuations.
Cycle Detection Mechanism:
The underlying cycle detection employs quadrature components derived from the Hilbert Transform to measure both amplitude and phase characteristics of price movements. This allows the system to distinguish between genuine trend changes and temporary price noise, automatically adjusting the smoothing intensity accordingly.
The mathematical framework ensures that during strong trending periods with clear directional movement, the algorithm reduces smoothing to minimize lag. Conversely, during consolidation phases with mixed signals, increased smoothing helps filter out false breakouts and whipsaws.
📋 PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
Source Selection Strategy:
• HL2 (High+Low)/2 (Default): Recommended for cycle analysis as it represents the midpoint of each period's trading range, reducing impact of opening gaps and closing spikes
• Close Price: Traditional choice reflecting final market sentiment, suitable for end-of-day analysis
• HLC3 (High+Low+Close)/3: Balanced approach incorporating range information with closing emphasis
• OHLC4 (Open+High+Low+Close)/4: Most comprehensive price representation for complete market view
Fast Limit Configuration (Default 0.5):
Controls the maximum responsiveness of the adaptive system. Higher values increase sensitivity to recent price changes but may introduce more noise. This parameter sets the upper bound for the dynamic alpha calculation.
Slow Limit Configuration (Default 0.05):
Determines the minimum responsiveness, providing stability during uncertain market conditions. Lower values increase smoothing but may cause delayed signals. This parameter sets the lower bound for the dynamic alpha calculation.
Parameter Relationship Considerations:
The fast and slow limits work together to define the adaptive range. The wider the range between these limits, the more dramatic the adaptation between trending and consolidating market conditions. Different market characteristics may benefit from different parameter configurations, requiring individual testing and validation.
📊 COLOR CODING SYSTEM
Line Visualization:
• Green Line (MAMA): The fast-adapting moving average that responds quickly to price changes
• Red Line (FAMA): The following adaptive moving average that provides confirmation signals
The fixed color scheme provides consistent visual identification of each line, enabling clear differentiation between the fast-adapting MAMA and the following FAMA throughout all market conditions.
💡 CORE VALUE PROPOSITION
Advantages Over Traditional Moving Averages:
• Cycle Adaptation: Automatically adjusts to market's dominant cycle rather than using fixed periods
• Reduced Lag: Faster response to genuine trend changes while filtering market noise
• Mathematical Foundation: Based on advanced signal processing techniques from telecommunications engineering
• Dual-Line System: Provides both fast adaptation (MAMA) and confirmation (FAMA) in one indicator
Comparative Performance Characteristics:
Unlike fixed-period moving averages that apply the same smoothing regardless of market conditions, MAMA adapts its behavior based on current market cycle characteristics. This may help reduce whipsaws during consolidation periods while maintaining responsiveness during trending phases.
Usage Considerations:
This indicator is designed for technical analysis purposes. The adaptive nature means that parameter optimization should consider the specific characteristics of the asset and timeframe being analyzed. Like all technical indicators, MAMA should be used as part of a comprehensive analysis approach rather than as a standalone signal generator.
Alert Functionality:
The indicator includes alert conditions for MAMA/FAMA crossovers, enabling automated notification of potential momentum shifts. These alerts can assist in timing analysis but should be combined with other forms of market analysis for decision-making purposes.
Señales de Compra/Venta - KUSKUS + MACD AlgoAlphaseñales de compra/venta con base en la alineación de dos indicadores
Kalman Ema Crosses - [JTCAPITAL]Kalman EMA Crosses - is a modified way to use Kalman Filters applied on Exponential Moving Averages (EMA Crosses) for Trend-Following.
The Kalman filter is a recursive smoothing algorithm that reduces noise from raw price or indicator data, and in this script it is applied both directly to price and on top of EMA calculations. The goal is to create cleaner, more reliable crossover signals between two EMAs that are less prone to false triggers caused by volatility or market noise.
The indicator works by calculating in the following steps:

The script starts by selecting the price input (default is Close, but can be adjusted). This chosen source is the foundation for all further smoothing and EMA calculations.
Kalman Filtering on Price
Depending on user settings, the selected source is passed through one of two independent Kalman filters. The filter takes into account process noise (representing expected market randomness) and measurement noise (representing uncertainty in the price data). The Kalman filter outputs a smoothed version of price that minimizes noise and preserves underlying trend structure.
EMA Calculation
Two exponential moving averages (EMA 1 and EMA 2) are then computed on the Kalman-smoothed price. The lengths of these EMAs are fully customizable (default 15 and 25).
Kalman Filtering on EMA Values
Instead of directly using raw EMA curves, the script applies a second layer of Kalman filtering to the EMA values themselves. This step significantly reduces whipsaw behavior, creating smoother crossovers that emphasize real momentum shifts rather than temporary volatility spikes.
Trend Detection via EMA Crossovers
-A bullish trend is detected when EMA 1 (fast) crosses above EMA 2 (slow).
-A bearish trend is detected when EMA 1 crosses below EMA 2.
The detected trend state is stored and used to dynamically color the plots.
Visual Representation
Both EMAs are plotted on the chart. Their colors shift to blue during bullish phases and purple during bearish phases. The area between the two EMAs is filled with a shaded region to clearly highlight trending conditions.
Buy and Sell Conditions :
- Buy Condition : When the Kalman-smoothed EMA 1 crosses above the Kalman-smoothed EMA 2, a bullish crossover is confirmed.
- Sell Condition : When EMA 1 crosses below EMA 2, a bearish crossover is confirmed.
Users may enhance the robustness of these signals by adjusting process noise, measurement noise, or EMA lengths. Lower measurement noise values make the filter react faster (but potentially noisier), while higher values make it smoother (but slower).
Features and Parameters :
- Source : Selectable price input (Close, Open, High, Low, etc.).
- EMA 1 Length : Defines the fast EMA period.
- EMA 2 Length : Defines the slow EMA period.
- Process Noise : Controls how much randomness the Kalman filter assumes in price dynamics.
- Measurement Noise : Controls how much uncertainty is assumed in raw input data.
- Kalman Usage : Option to apply Kalman filtering either before EMA calculation (on price) or after (on EMA values).

Kalman Filter
The Kalman filter is an optimal recursive algorithm that estimates the state of a system from noisy measurements. In trading, it is used to smooth prices or indicator values. By balancing process noise (expected volatility) with measurement noise (data uncertainty), it generates a smoothed signal that reacts adaptively to market conditions.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
An EMA is a weighted moving average that emphasizes recent data more heavily than older data. This makes it more responsive than a simple moving average (SMA). EMAs are widely used to identify trends and momentum shifts.
EMA Crossovers
The crossing of a fast EMA above a slow EMA suggests bullish momentum, while the opposite suggests bearish momentum. This is a cornerstone technique in trend-following systems.
Dual Kalman Filtering
Applying Kalman both to raw price and to the EMAs themselves reduces whipsaws further. It creates crossover signals that are not only smoothed but also validated across two levels of noise reduction. This significantly enhances signal reliability compared to traditional EMA crossovers.
Process Noise
Represents the filter’s assumption about how much the underlying market can randomly change between steps. Higher values make the filter adapt faster to sudden changes, while lower values make it more stable.
Measurement Noise
Represents uncertainty in price data. A higher measurement noise value means the filter trusts the model more than the observed data, leading to smoother results. A lower value makes the filter more reactive to observed price fluctuations.
Trend Coloring & Fill
The use of dynamic colors and filled regions provides immediate visual recognition of trend states, helping traders act faster and with greater clarity.

Chimera [theUltimator5]In myth, the chimera is an “impossible” hybrid—lion, goat, and serpent fused into one—striking to look at and formidable in presence. The word has come to mean a beautiful, improbable union of parts that shouldn’t work together, yet do.
Chimera is a dual-mode market context tool that blends a multi-input oscillator with classic ADX/DI trend strength, plus optional multi-timeframe “gap-line” tracking. Use it to visualize regime (trend vs. range), momentum swings around an adaptive midline, and higher timeframe (HTF) reference levels that auto-terminate on touch/cross.
Modes
1) Oscillator view
A smoothed composite of five common inputs—RSI, MACD (oscillator), Bollinger position, Stochastic, and an ATR/DI-weighted bias. Each is normalized to a comparable 0–100 style scale, averaged, and plotted as a candle-style oscillator (short vs. long smoothing, wickless for clarity). A dynamic midline with standard-deviation bands frames neutral → bearish/bullish zones. Colors ramp from neutral to your chosen Oversold/Overbought endpoints; consolidation can override to white.
Here is a description of the (5) signals used to calculate the sentiment oscillator:
RSI (14): Measures recent momentum by comparing average gains vs. losses. High = strength after advances; low = weakness after declines. (Z-score normalized to 0–100.)
MACD oscillator (12/26/9): Uses the difference between MACD and its signal (histogram) to gauge momentum shifts. Positive = bullish tilt; negative = bearish. (Z-score normalized.)
Bollinger Bands position (20, 2): Locates price within the bands (0–100 from lower → upper). Near upper suggests strength/expansion; near lower suggests weakness/contraction. (Then normalized.)
Stochastic (14, 3, 3): Shows where the close sits within the recent high-low range, smoothed via %D. Higher values = closes near highs; lower = near lows. (Scaled 0–100.)
ATR/DI composite (14): Volatility-weighted directional bias: (+DI − −DI) amplified by ATR as a % of price and its relative average. Positive = bullish pressure with volatility; negative = bearish. (Rank/scale normalized.)
All five are normalized and averaged into one composite, then smoothed (short/long) and compared to an adaptive midline with bands.
2) ADX view
Shows ADX, +DI, –DI with user-defined High Threshold. Transparency and color shift with regime. When ADX is strong, a directional “fire/ice” gradient fills the area between ADX and the high threshold, biased toward the dominant DI; when ADX is weak, a soft white fade highlights low-trend conditions.
HTF gap-line tracking (optional; both modes)
Detects “gap-like” reference levels after weak-trend consolidation flips into a sudden DI jump.
Anchors a line at the event bar’s open and auto-terminates upon first touch/cross (tick-size tolerance).
Auto-selects up to three higher timeframes suited to your chart resolution and prints non-overlapping lines with labels like 1H / 4H / 1D. Lower-priority duplicates are suppressed to reduce clutter.
Confirmation / repaint notes
Signals and lines finalize on bar close of the relevant timeframe.
HTF elements update only on the HTF bar close. During a forming bar they may appear transiently.
Line removal finalizes after the bar that produced the touch/cross closes.
Visual cues & effects
Oscillator candles: Open/High = long smoothing; Low/Close = short smoothing (no wicks).
Adaptive bands: Midline ± StdDev Multiplier × stdev of the blended series.
Consolidation tint: Optional white backdrop/candles when the consolidation condition is true (balance + low ADX).
Breakout VFX (optional): With strong DI/ADX and Bollinger breaks, renders a subtle “fire” flare above upper-band thrusts or “ice” shelf below lower-band thrusts.
Inputs (high-level)
Visual Style: Oscillator or ADX.
General (Oscillator): Lookback Period, Short/Long Smoothing, Standard Deviation Multiplier.
Color (Oscillator): Oversold/Overbought colors for gradient endpoints.
Plot (Oscillator): Show Candles, Show Slow MA Line, Show Individual Component (RSI/MACD/BB/Stoch/ATR).
Table (Oscillator): Show Information Table & position (compact dashboard of component values + status).
ADX / Gaps / VFX (both modes): ADX High Threshold, Highlight Backgrounds, Show Gap Labels, Visual Overlay Effects, and color choices for current-TF & HTF lines.
HTF selection: Automatic ladder (3 tiers) based on your chart timeframe.
Alerts (built-in)
Buy Signal – Primary: Oscillator exits oversold.
Sell Signal – Primary: Oscillator exits overbought.
Gap Fill Line Created (Any TF)
Gap Fill Line Terminated (Any TF)
ADX Crossed ABOVE/BELOW Low Threshold
ADX Crossed ABOVE/BELOW High Threshold
Consolidation Started
Alerts evaluate on the close of the relevant timeframe.
How to read it (quick guide)
Pick your lens: Oscillator for blended momentum around an adaptive midline; ADX for trend strength and DI skew.
Watch extremes & mean re-entries (Oscillator): Approaches to the top/bottom band show persistent momentum; returns toward the midline show normalization.
Check regime (ADX): Below Low = low-trend; above High = strong trend, with “fire/ice” bias toward +DI/–DI.
Track gap lines: Fresh labels mark new reference levels; lines auto-remove on first interaction. HTF lines add context but finalize only on HTF close.
The uniqueness from this indicator comes from multiple areas:
1. A unique multi-timeframe algorithm detects gap fill zones and plots them on the chart.
2. Visual effects for both visual modes were hand crafted to provide a visually stunning and intuitive interface.
3. The algorithm to determine sentiment uses a unique blend of weight and sensitivity adjustment to create a plot with elastic upper and lower bounds based off historical volatility and price action.
