EMA 5/10/20/34/55/60/120/255Overview
- Plots eight Exponential Moving Averages on the price chart: EMA(5/10/20/34/55/60/120/255) .
- Designed for light (white) theme with high-contrast colors and uniform linewidth=1 .
- Written in Pine Script v6 ( overlay=true ), no alerts or extra visuals.
Why These Lengths
- 5, 10 : Short-term momentum and intraday rhythm.
- 20, 34 : Swing trend and pullback structure (34 is Fibonacci-based).
- 55, 60 : Deeper swing/weekly alignment commonly used by trend traders.
- 120, 255 : Mid/long-term trend filters (~half-year and ~annual trading days).
How To Read
- Trend filter: Price above EMA(120/255) favors bullish context; below favors bearish.
- Alignment: Strong bull trend when 5 > 10 > 20 > 34 > 55 > 60 > 120 > 255 and slopes up; inverse for bear trends.
- Pullbacks: Shallow pullbacks often respect 5/10 ; standard pullbacks 20/34 ; deeper tests 55/60 .
- Slope matters: Up/flat/down slopes of the longer EMAs ( 120/255 ) reflect trend strength more reliably than single crossovers.
Typical Use Cases
- Trend following: Trade in the direction of 120/255 and the stacked EMA order.
- Pullback entries: Look for stabilizing price action around 20/34 within a trend.
- Breakout confirmation: Sustain above/below a key EMA, then retest and hold.
- Risk management: Place stops beyond nearby EMAs, optionally buffered by ATR.
Tips
- Use the Data Window to identify each EMA line by its title ( EMA(5) , EMA(10) , etc.).
- Combine with volatility/strength filters (e.g., ATR, ADX) to reduce range-bound noise.
- Multi-timeframe consistency (e.g., higher TF EMA(255) aligned with current TF EMA(55/60) ) improves selectivity.
Limitations
- All moving averages are lagging by design; expect delayed signals.
- In consolidations, frequent crossovers can create whipsaws; apply filters or focus on slope and structure.
Disclaimer
- For educational purposes only. Not financial advice. Always validate on your instruments and timeframes and manage risk accordingly.

Momentum Divergence Oscillator by JJMomentum Divergence Oscillator by JJ
A powerful, all-in-one momentum tool designed to streamline trade confluence, combining multi-timeframe trend analysis with automatic divergence spotting and classic MACD signals.
How to Use This Indicator
This oscillator is designed to be used in the lower pane of your chart, beneath your primary price chart. It provides three main types of signals:
1. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Trend Confirmation
The background shading is your primary trend filter. It looks at the MACD trend on two higher timeframes (30m and 60m by default) to confirm the market's overarching direction.
Green Shading: Indicates that both higher timeframes are in a bullish trend (MACD above signal line). Focus on looking for BUY signals during this time.
Red Shading: Indicates that both higher timeframes are in a bearish trend. Focus on looking for SELL signals during this time.
Grey/No Shading: The higher timeframes are not in agreement or are consolidating. Exercise caution or stick to standard price action rules.
2. Automatic Divergence Signals
Divergence is a powerful early warning system where the indicator moves in the opposite direction of the price. The indicator automatically flags these occurrences:
"Bull RSI Div" (Green Label-Up): Bullish divergence identified using the RSI oscillator. This suggests a potential reversal to the upside after a downtrend.
"Bear RSI Div" (Red Label-Down): Bearish divergence identified using the RSI oscillator. This suggests a potential reversal to the downside after an uptrend.
Tip: These signals are often most reliable when they occur within the corresponding MTF background colour (e.g., a "Bull RSI Div" during a Green MTF background).
3. Momentum Shifts and Crossovers
The standard plots provide immediate insight into market momentum:
Blue/Orange Lines: The traditional MACD line (Blue) and Signal line (Orange).
Histogram (Green/Red Bars): Represents the momentum difference between the MACD and Signal lines.
Zero-Line Crosses (Triangles): Tiny triangles appear when the MACD line crosses the zero line, indicating a shift in long-term momentum.
Peaks & Troughs (X-Crosses): The 'X' markers identify local peaks and troughs in the histogram, sometimes indicating short-term exhaustion of the current move.
Disclaimer: Trading involves significant risk and is not suitable for every investor. This indicator is for educational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Always use appropriate risk management.
Trend Following Volatility Trail*Script was previously removed by Moderators at 1.8k boosts* - This was out of my control. This script was very popular and seemed to help a lot of traders. I am re uploading to help the community!
Trend Following Volatility Trail
The Trend Following Volatility Trail is a dynamic trend-following tool that adapts its stop, bias, and zones to real-time volatility and trend strength. Instead of using static ATR multiples like a normal Supertrend or Chandelier Stop, it continuously adjusts itself based on how stretched the market is and how persistent the trend has been. This indicator is based on volatility weighted EMAC
This makes the system far more reactive during momentum phases and more conservative during consolidation, helping avoid fake flips and late entries.
How It Works
The indicator builds an adaptive trail around a smoothed price basis:
– It starts with a short EMA as the “core trend line.”
– It measures volatility expansion versus normal volatility.
– It measures trend persistence by reading whether price has been rising or falling consistently.
– These two components combine to adjust the ATR multiplier dynamically.
As volatility expands or the trend becomes more persistent, the bands widen.
When volatility compresses or the trend weakens, the bands tighten.
These adaptive bands form the foundation of the trailing system.
Bull & Bear State Logic
The tool constantly tracks whether price is above or below the adaptive trail:
Price above the upper trail → Bullish regime
Price below the lower trail → Bearish regime
But instead of flipping immediately, it waits for confirmation bars to avoid noise.
This greatly reduces whipsaws and keeps the focus on sustained moves.
Once a new regime is confirmed:
– A coloured cloud appears (bull or bear)
– A label marks the flip point
– Alerts can be triggered automatically
Best Uses
Identifying regime shifts early
Riding sustained trends with confidence
Avoiding choppy markets by requiring confirmation
Using the adaptive cloud as a directional bias layer
Swing Point PnL PressureThis indicator visualizes the cumulative profit potential of bulls and bears based on recent swing highs and lows — offering a unique lens into trend maturity, sentiment imbalance, and exhaustion risk.
🟢 Bull PnL rises as price moves above prior swing lows — reflecting unrealized gains for long positions
🔴 Bear PnL rises as price drops below prior swing highs — capturing short-side profitability
Over time, these curves diverge during strong trends, revealing which side is in control. But when they converge, it often signals that the dominant side is losing steam — a potential turning point where profit-taking, traps, or reversals may emerge.
This tool doesn’t predict tops or bottoms — it tracks the emotional and financial pressure building on each side of the market. Use it to:
Spot trend exhaustion before price confirms it
Identify profit parity zones where sentiment may flip
Time accumulation or distribution phases with greater confidence
Whether you’re swing trading or analyzing macro structure, this indicator helps you see what price alone can’t: who’s winning, who’s trapped, and who’s about to give up.
FVG HTF# FVG HTF — Higher‑Timeframe Fair Value Gaps
## Summary
- Plots higher‑timeframe Fair Value Gap (FVG) zones directly on your current chart.
- Tracks fill progress using four methods: Any Touch, Midpoint Reached, Wick Sweep, Body Beyond.
- Shows optional labels with timeframe source and live fill percentage; label text color is configurable.
- Designed for clean overlays and efficient rendering with limits on graphics and bars processed.
## What It Does
- Detects bullish and bearish FVGs from a chosen timeframe (or the chart timeframe) and renders:
- Zone Top/Bottom lines and a dotted midpoint line
- Semi‑transparent area fill between the edges
- Optional label at the midpoint with a tooltip showing zone prices
- Continuously updates zones forward and removes them when the selected fill condition is met.
## Inputs
- `Enable FVG` (`fvgSH2`): Toggle detection/plotting on/off.
- `Timeframe` (`fvgTF2`): Choose `Chart` or HTFs (`5 Minutes`, `15 Minutes`, `1 Hour`, `4 Hours`, `1 Day`, `1 Week`, `1 Month`).
- `Fill Method` (`fvgFill2`):
- Any Touch — wick or body touches any part of the zone
- Midpoint Reached — price reaches at least the 50% of the zone
- Wick Sweep — wick fully travels past the far edge and back inside (conceptually stricter than touch)
- Body Beyond — candle body closes beyond the opposite edge (strong confirmation)
- `Zones` colors (`fvgCb2`, `fvgCs2`): Bullish/Bearish zone colors.
- `Labels` (`fvgLB2`): Show/Hide on‑chart labels.
- `Label Color` (`fvgLBc2`): Color picker for label text (default: white).
- `Max Bars Back` (`maxBars2`): Limits processing to recent bars for performance.
## Timeframe Rules
- The helper `htfTF` prevents selecting a timeframe lower than the chart. If an invalid lower TF is chosen, it falls back to `timeframe.period`.
- Supports minute, daily, weekly, and monthly aggregations that are safe for intraday/daily/weekly charts.
## Detection Logic
- Uses rolling higher‑timeframe bars constructed on the fly and checks 3‑bar displacement patterns:
- Bullish FVG: current HTF low above the high two bars ago AND previous HTF close above that high, with no direct gap condition.
- Bearish FVG: current HTF high below the low two bars ago AND previous HTF close below that low, with no direct gap condition.
- On detection, the script creates an FVG object with:
- Top/Bottom lines (`lnTop`, `lnBtm`) and midpoint line (`lnAvg`)
- Midpoint label (`lbTxt`) showing source timeframe and updating fill percentage
- Semi‑transparent fill (`linefill`) for visual clarity
## Fill Tracking
- Fill threshold depends on selected method:
- Any Touch: opposite edge
- Midpoint Reached: zone’s midpoint
- Wick Sweep: stricter condition conceptually (implemented as an opposite‑edge threshold)
- Body Beyond: requires close beyond the opposite edge
- Each bar updates label x‑position and line endpoints forward; the label text shows the best fill ratio achieved.
- When the threshold is reached, the FVG (label, lines, fill) is removed from the chart.
## Best Practices
- Start with `Any Touch` to visualize broad repairs; switch to `Body Beyond` for conservative confirmations.
- Use `1 Hour` or `4 Hours` overlays on 5m–15m charts for context; `1 Day` on 1H charts; `1 Week` on daily charts.
- Keep labels on when monitoring fills intraday; hide labels for clean higher‑level context.
- Adjust `Max Bars Back` if performance is impacted by many zones.
## Repainting Notes
- HTF zones are computed on `timeframe.change(tf)` and therefore confirm on HTF bar closes.
- Label endpoints extend each bar; detection itself avoids lookahead bias. For strict confirmation, align entries with HTF closes.
## Limitations
- “Wick Sweep” is treated as a stricter touch to the far edge; it does not enforce a separate “return inside” bar state.
- Label text color applies uniformly to bull/bear labels. If you need separate colors per side, contact the author.

## Quick Start
1. Enable FVG and choose your HTF (e.g., `1 Hour`).
2. Pick a Fill Method (start with `Any Touch`).
3. Select zone colors and label text color.
4. Set `Max Bars Back` as needed for performance.
5. Use labels/tooltip values (Top/Mid/Bottom) to plan entries and manage risk.
Luxy Sector & Industry RS AnalyzerEver wonder why some stocks soar while others in the same sector barely move? Or why your perfectly timed entry still loses money? Possibly the answer can be found in Relative Strength.
The Luxy Sector & Industry RS Analyzer solves a critical problem that most traders overlook: picking strong stocks in strong sectors AND strong industries . It's not enough for a stock to go up - you want stocks that are crushing their competition at both the sector AND industry level. This indicator does the heavy lifting by automatically comparing your stock against its sector ETF, industry ETF, the broader market, sector leader, and industry leader, giving you a complete multi-level picture of relative performance.
What makes this different?
- Automatic sector AND industry detection - no manual setup required
- Multi-level hierarchy analysis: Market → Sector → Industry → Stock
- Multi-timeframe analysis (1 month to 1 year) in one glance
- Industry ETF mapping (30+ industries covered)
- Clear 0-100 scoring system with letter grades (A+ to F)
- Works on stocks, crypto, forex, and commodities
- Real-time updates with anti-repaint protection
Think of it as your performance dashboard - instantly showing you if you're trading a champion or a laggard at every level of the market hierarchy.
METHODOLOGY & ATTRIBUTION
This indicator is based on classical Relative Strength (RS) analysis principles from technical analysis. RS methodology compares an asset's price performance against a benchmark to identify relative outperformance or underperformance. This concept has been used by professional traders and institutions for decades.
Key Concepts Used:
Relative Strength (RS) - Classical technical analysis concept measuring comparative performance
Multi-Level Hierarchy Analysis - Market → Sector → Industry → Stock comparison
Sector Rotation Analysis - Identifying which sectors are leading or lagging the market
Industry Rotation Analysis - Identifying which industries are leading within their sectors
Multi-period Performance Analysis - Evaluating strength across multiple timeframes
Beta Calculation - Standard statistical measure of volatility relative to a benchmark
DISCLAIMER: This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. It should not be considered financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Trading involves risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Always do your own research and consult with a financial advisor before making investment decisions.

WHAT THE INDICATOR SHOWS
1. AUTOMATIC ASSET TYPE DETECTION
The indicator automatically identifies what you're analyzing and adjusts accordingly:
Stocks - Compares to sector ETF (XLK, XLF, XLV, etc.) and SPY
Crypto - Compares to Total Crypto Market Cap and Bitcoin
Forex - Compares to relevant currency index (DXY, EXY, etc.)
Commodities - Compares to Gold (GLD) as benchmark
Indices - Compares to broader market indices
How it works: The indicator reads your chart's asset type and ticker, then automatically maps it to the correct sector or benchmark. For stocks, it uses intelligent sector detection (looking at the sector field) to match you with the right sector ETF. For example:
- Technology stocks get compared to XLK (Technology Select Sector SPDR)
- Financial stocks get compared to XLF (Financial Select Sector SPDR)
- Healthcare stocks get compared to XLV (Health Care Select Sector SPDR)
This happens instantly when you add the indicator to any chart - no configuration needed.
2. SECTOR & MARKET BENCHMARKS
What is a Sector ETF?
A sector ETF is an exchange-traded fund that tracks a specific industry group. For example, XLK contains all major technology companies. By comparing your stock to its sector ETF, you can see if your stock is outperforming or underperforming its peers.
The indicator shows three key comparison points:
Stock vs Sector (Benchmark)
This tells you how your stock performs compared to companies in the same industry. Positive numbers mean your stock is beating the sector average. Negative numbers mean it's lagging behind.
Stock vs Market (SPY)
This shows performance against the broader S&P 500 index. This is important because even if a stock beats its sector, the entire sector might be weak. You want stocks that beat both their sector AND the market.
Sector vs Market
This reveals "sector rotation" - whether money is flowing into or out of this sector. When this number is positive, the whole sector is hot and leading the market. This is powerful because strong sectors tend to lift all boats, making it easier to find winners.
3. MULTI-PERIOD PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The indicator calculates performance across four timeframes simultaneously:
1 Month (1M) - Recent short-term momentum
3 Months (3M) - Medium-term trend strength
6 Months (6M) - Longer-term positioning
1 Year (1Y) - Full-cycle performance view
Why multiple periods matter:
A stock might look great over 1 month but terrible over 6 months - that's a red flag. The best stocks show consistent strength across all timeframes . When you see positive RS (Relative Strength) values across all four periods, you've found a stock with sustained outperformance.
Each row in the table shows:
- Raw performance percentage for that period
- RS value (the difference compared to benchmark)
- Color coding: Green for positive, red for negative, white for neutral
4. SECTOR LEADER COMPARISON
The indicator automatically identifies and compares your stock to the sector leader - the dominant stock in that industry.
Sector leaders by industry:
Technology: Apple (AAPL)
Healthcare: UnitedHealth (UNH)
Financial: JPMorgan Chase (JPM)
Energy: ExxonMobil (XOM)
Consumer Discretionary: Amazon (AMZN)
Consumer Staples: Walmart (WMT)
And more...
Why this matters:
Comparing to the leader shows you if you're trading a champion or a follower. If your stock consistently beats the sector leader, you've found something special. If it's lagging the leader, you might want to trade the leader instead.
Optional Custom Leader:
You can override the automatic leader and compare to any stock you choose. This is useful if you want to benchmark against a specific competitor or reference stock.
NEW! INDUSTRY ANALYSIS (STOCKS ONLY)
The indicator now provides multi-level analysis by automatically detecting and comparing your stock to its specific industry , not just the broad sector.
Why Industry matters:
Technology sector (XLK) contains many different industries: Software, Semiconductors, Hardware, etc. A software stock might beat the broad tech sector but lag behind other software companies. Industry analysis provides this granular view.
Industry ETF Mapping (30+ industries):
Software/Applications: IGV (iShares Software ETF)
Semiconductors: SMH (VanEck Semiconductor ETF)
Biotech: IBB (iShares Biotechnology ETF)
Pharmaceuticals: XPH (SPDR Pharmaceuticals ETF)
Banks: KBE (SPDR S&P Bank ETF)
Regional Banks: KRE (SPDR Regional Banking ETF)
Oil & Gas Exploration: XOP (SPDR Oil & Gas Exploration ETF)
Homebuilders: XHB (SPDR Homebuilders ETF)
Retail: XRT (SPDR S&P Retail ETF)
Aerospace & Defense: ITA (iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF)
And many more...
Industry Leader Mapping:
The indicator also identifies the leader within each industry:
Software: Microsoft (MSFT)
Semiconductors: NVIDIA (NVDA)
Biotech: Amgen (AMGN)
Pharmaceuticals: Eli Lilly (LLY)
Banks: JPMorgan (JPM)
Oil Exploration: ConocoPhillips (COP)
And more...
New Table Rows for Stocks:
Industry ETF Performance - How the specific industry performed (green background)
Industry Leader Performance - How the top stock in the industry performed
vs Industry RS - Your stock's outperformance vs its industry ETF
Industry vs Sector RS - Is this industry hot or cold within its sector?
vs Industry Leader RS - Your stock's performance vs the industry's best
Why this is powerful:
A stock that beats both its sector AND its industry is showing strength at every level. This indicates true relative strength, not just riding sector-wide momentum.
Optional Custom Industry:
You can override automatic detection for both Industry ETF and Industry Leader in settings.
5. RS SCORE & GRADING SYSTEM (0-100)
The heart of the indicator is the RS Score - a weighted calculation that distills all the performance data into one clear number from 0 to 100.
How the score is calculated:
FOR STOCKS (with Industry data):
The indicator splits the weight between Sector (60%) and Industry (40%):
SECTOR RS (60% of total weight):
1 Month RS: 24% weight (40% × 0.6)
3 Month RS: 18% weight (30% × 0.6)
6 Month RS: 12% weight (20% × 0.6)
1 Year RS: 6% weight (10% × 0.6)
INDUSTRY RS (40% of total weight):
1 Month RS: 16% weight (40% × 0.4)
3 Month RS: 12% weight (30% × 0.4)
6 Month RS: 8% weight (20% × 0.4)
1 Year RS: 4% weight (10% × 0.4)
FOR OTHER ASSETS (Crypto, Forex, Commodities):
Uses full 100% weight on benchmark:
1 Month RS: 40% weight
3 Month RS: 30% weight
6 Month RS: 20% weight
1 Year RS: 10% weight
It starts at 50 (neutral) and adds or subtracts points based on your asset's relative strength in each period.
Bonus points:
+5 points if the sector is outperforming the market (sector rotation is bullish)
+5 points if the industry is outperforming its sector (hot industry) - STOCKS ONLY
+5 points if RS momentum is improving (getting stronger over time)
-5 points if RS momentum is declining (getting weaker)
The final score is capped between 0-100.
Letter Grade System:
90-100: A+ - Elite performer, crushing the sector
85-89: A - Excellent, strong outperformer
80-84: A- - Very good, above average
75-79: B+ - Good, solid performer
70-74: B - Above average, decent strength
65-69: B- - Slightly above average
60-64: C+ - Average, neutral strength
55-59: C - Below average
50-54: C- - Weak, slight underperformance
45-49: D+ - Concerning weakness
40-44: D - Poor, significant underperformance
0-39: F - Failing, avoid this stock
What scores mean for trading:
- RS Score above 70: Strong stocks worth considering for long positions
- RS Score 50-70: Average stocks, better opportunities elsewhere
- RS Score below 50: Weak stocks, avoid or consider for shorts
6. CONSISTENCY SCORE
This metric shows what percentage of time periods show positive RS .
For STOCKS (with Industry data):
Counts both Sector RS periods AND Industry RS periods (up to 8 total periods):
- If a stock beats both sector and industry in all 4 periods each: Consistency = 100% (8/8)
- If it beats in 6 out of 8 total periods: Consistency = 75%
- If it beats in 4 out of 8 total periods: Consistency = 50%
For OTHER ASSETS:
Counts benchmark periods only (4 total):
- If it beats benchmark in all 4 periods (1M, 3M, 6M, 1Y): Consistency = 100%
- If it beats in 3 out of 4 periods: Consistency = 75%
- If it beats in 2 out of 4 periods: Consistency = 50%
Why consistency matters:
A high RS Score with low consistency might indicate a recent spike that could fade. The best stocks show both high RS Score AND high consistency - they're strong now AND have been strong historically at both the sector AND industry level.
Look for stocks with:
Consistency above 75%: Very reliable strength across all levels
Consistency 50-75%: Decent but check other metrics
Consistency below 50%: Weak or erratic, proceed with caution
7. BETA CALCULATION (Volatility Measure)
Beta measures how much more volatile your stock is compared to its sector.
Beta > 1.2 : High volatility - stock moves more aggressively than sector (marked as "High")
Beta 0.8-1.2 : Normal volatility - moves roughly in line with sector
Beta < 0.8 : Low volatility - stock is more stable than sector (marked as "Low")
Formula used:
Beta = Correlation(Stock, Sector) × (Standard Deviation of Stock / Standard Deviation of Sector)
This uses a 20-period calculation for reliability.
How to use Beta:
- High Beta stocks offer bigger gains but also bigger risks - good for aggressive traders
- Low Beta stocks are more defensive - good for conservative positions
- Match Beta to your risk tolerance and strategy
8. DAYS ABOVE/BELOW SECTOR
This tracks consecutive periods (bars) where your stock outperforms or underperforms its sector.
Days Above Sector:
Counts how many bars in a row your stock has beaten the sector.
10+ days: Strong sustained strength (shown in bright green)
5-9 days: Building momentum (shown in yellow)
1-4 days: Early strength (shown in white)
0 days: Not currently outperforming
Days Below Sector:
Counts how many bars in a row your stock has lagged the sector.
10+ days: Sustained weakness (shown in bright red)
5-9 days: Losing momentum (shown in orange)
1-4 days: Minor weakness (shown in white)
0 days: Not underperforming (this is good!)
Why this matters:
Long streaks show trend persistence. A stock with 15+ days above sector is riding strong momentum. A stock with 15+ days below sector is in a sustained downtrend relative to peers.
9. PRICE VS 52-WEEK HIGH
Shows where current price sits relative to its 52-week high (or equivalent for your timeframe).
95%+ (green) : Stock is near all-time highs - strong positioning
80-94% (yellow) : Stock is in a pullback but still relatively strong
Below 80% : Stock has pulled back significantly from highs
Why this matters:
The strongest stocks stay near their highs. When you see a stock with high RS Score AND price near 52W high, you've found a stock with institutional support and strong buying pressure.
10. RELATIVE VOLUME
Compares current volume to the 20-period average volume.
1.5x+ (green) : High volume - significant interest and participation
Around 1.0x : Average volume - normal trading activity
Below 1.0x : Low volume - less interest or inactive period
Why volume matters:
High relative volume confirms price moves. When a stock makes a strong move on 2x or 3x normal volume, it's more likely to sustain. Low volume moves are often just noise.
11. AVERAGE RS STRENGTH
This calculates the average absolute value of all RS readings across the four timeframes.
It shows the magnitude of divergence from the sector, regardless of direction. A high number means the stock moves very differently from its sector (could be much stronger or much weaker). A low number means it tracks closely with the sector.
High Average RS: Stock has strong character, moves independently
Low Average RS: Stock follows sector closely, lacks individual strength
12. SECTOR ROTATION SIGNAL
This indicator automatically detects when a sector is experiencing bullish rotation - meaning money is flowing into the sector and it's outperforming the broader market.
Condition for bullish rotation:
Sector must be beating SPY (market) in both 1-month AND 3-month periods.
Why this matters:
Stocks in hot sectors tend to perform better because they have tailwinds from sector-wide buying. When sector rotation is bullish and your stock has a high RS Score, you've found an ideal setup.
The indicator adds +5 bonus points to the RS Score when sector rotation is bullish.
13. MOMENTUM DETECTION
The indicator compares 1-month RS to 3-month RS to detect if momentum is improving or declining.
RS Momentum Improving: 1M RS is better than 3M RS - stock is getting stronger (adds +5 to score)
RS Momentum Declining: 1M RS is worse than 3M RS - stock is getting weaker (subtracts -5 from score)
Why momentum matters:
You want to catch stocks as momentum is building, not after it's already peaked. Improving momentum suggests the strength is accelerating, not fading.
14. OVERALL ASSESSMENT & RECOMMENDATION
The indicator provides two quick summary rows:
Overall Rating:
Based on grade and RS Score, you get an instant quality rating:
Strong Leader (A/A+) - Top tier stock, crushing it
Above Average (A-/B+) - Solid performer, better than most
Average (B/B-) - Middle of the pack
Below Average (C/C+) - Struggling, watch carefully
Underperformer (D/F) - Weak stock, underperforming badly
Trading Signal:
Combines multiple factors to give setup quality:
STRONG BUY SETUP - RS Score 70+, Consistency 75+, AND sector rotation bullish. This is the perfect storm - strong stock, consistent strength, hot sector.
BULLISH - RS Score 60+, Consistency 50+. Good quality stock worth considering.
NEUTRAL - RS Score 50+. Okay but not exciting, better opportunities exist.
WEAK - RS Score 40-49. Below average, risky.
AVOID - RS Score below 40. Stay away, too weak.
IMPORTANT: These are educational signals only, not financial advice. Always do your own analysis and risk management.

- Sector Rotation: Bullish
- Price vs 52W High: 96%
- Days Above Sector: 12 days
- Relative Volume: 1.8x
This is a textbook strong stock in a hot sector near highs - ideal for swing long.
FOR POSITION TRADERS:
1. Focus on 6-month and 1-year RS values
2. Look for sustained outperformance (Consistency 75%+)
3. Prefer lower Beta stocks (less volatility)
4. Check Days Above Sector for trend persistence
5. Monitor RS Score monthly, exit if drops below 60
FOR ACTIVE TRADERS:
1. Use on intraday timeframes (1H or 4H)
2. Set RS Score filter to 60+ for quick screening
3. Enable Divergence Alerts
4. Watch for momentum improving signal
5. Higher Beta stocks offer more movement
FOR SHORT SELLERS:
1. Look for RS Score below 40 (Grade: D or F)
2. Check for declining momentum
3. Verify Days Below Sector is increasing (10+)
4. Sector rotation should be bearish
5. Price should be well off 52W high
WHAT MAKES A PERFECT SETUP:
The holy grail combination:
RS Score: 75+ (A- or better)
Consistency: 80%+ (strong across time - beats sector AND industry)
Sector Rotation: Bullish (hot sector)
Industry vs Sector: Positive (hot industry within sector)
Days Above Sector: 10+ (sustained strength)
Momentum: Improving (getting stronger)
Price vs 52W High: 90%+ (near highs)
Relative Volume: 1.5x+ (volume confirmation)
When you find this combination, you've located a stock with every advantage in its favor - strong at the stock level, industry level, AND sector level. That's multi-level confirmation of relative strength.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Data Reliability:
All calculations use lookahead=off for anti-repaint protection
Historical values will never change
Real-time indicator toggle only affects the visual clock icon, not data reliability
All security requests are properly configured to prevent future data leakage
Sector Mapping Notes:
Sector detection uses TradingView's sector field
Some stocks may not have sector data - indicator will adapt
Sector ETFs used: XLK, XLF, XLV, XLE, XLY, XLP, XLI, XLB, XLRE, XLU, XLC
Major market ETFs (SPY, QQQ, DIA) are treated as market benchmarks, not stocks
Multi-Asset Notes:
Crypto compares to CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL (total crypto market cap)
Forex compares to relevant currency index based on base currency
Commodities compare to Gold (GLD) as primary commodity benchmark
Custom leaders can be set for any asset type
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What does RS Score of 75 actually mean?
A: It means your stock is strongly outperforming its sector across multiple timeframes. The score is weighted toward recent performance (1-month gets 40% weight), so 75 indicates sustained relative strength with emphasis on current momentum.
Q: My stock has high RS Score but is going down. Why?
A: RS Score measures relative performance (vs sector/market), not absolute price direction. A stock can fall 5% while its sector falls 10% - that's still positive relative strength. In bear markets or sector corrections, high RS stocks often fall less than peers.
Q: Should I only trade stocks with RS Score above 70?
A: For long positions, yes - focus on 70+ scores. These stocks have proven they can beat their sector. However, for pairs trading or relative value plays, you might also short stocks with scores below 40 while longing stocks above 70.
Q: What if my stock doesn't have a sector?
A: The indicator handles this gracefully. If no sector is detected, it will compare directly to the market (SPY for stocks). Some rows may show N/A, but the indicator will still provide useful market-relative data.
Q: Why does the sector sometimes show N/A?
A: This happens when: 1) Your asset has no sector classification, 2) The stock IS the sector ETF itself, 3) You're analyzing a non-stock asset (crypto, forex, commodity). The indicator adapts by focusing on market-relative metrics instead.
Q: Can I use this on cryptocurrencies?
A: Yes! The indicator automatically detects crypto and compares to the Total Crypto Market Cap (CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL). You can also set a custom leader like Bitcoin (BTCUSD) to compare against the dominant crypto.
Q: What's the difference between RS Score and Consistency?
A: RS Score is the weighted average of how much you're beating the sector (magnitude). Consistency is what percentage of time periods show outperformance (reliability). You want both high - that means strong AND consistent.
Q: Do the alerts repaint?
A: No. All alerts fire only on bar close (barstate.isconfirmed) and use properly configured data with lookahead=off. Once an alert fires, it's final and won't change.
Q: What timeframe should I use?
A: For swing trading: Daily or Weekly. For day trading: 1H or 4H. For position trading: Weekly. Use "Chart Timeframe" mode and switch your chart timeframe to change the analysis period easily.
Q: Why is Days Above Sector showing 0?
A: This means your stock is not currently outperforming its sector. If Days Below Sector is also 0, it means the RS is exactly neutral (very rare). Check the actual RS values to see current standing.
Q: Can I compare to a different market benchmark than SPY?
A: Currently the indicator uses SPY (S&P 500) as the default US stock market benchmark. For crypto it uses CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL, for forex it uses currency indices, etc. The benchmark auto-adjusts based on asset type.
Q: What's a good Beta value?
A: It depends on your strategy. Aggressive traders prefer Beta above 1.2 (more volatility = bigger moves). Conservative traders prefer Beta 0.8-1.0 (more stable). Beta is neutral - it's about matching your risk tolerance.
Q: How often does the table update?
A: With Real-time Indicator enabled: Every tick (constant updates). With it disabled: Only on bar close. Either way, the underlying data is identical and non-repainting - the toggle only affects update frequency and the clock icon display.
Q: My stock is showing "AVOID" but it's up 50% this year. Is the indicator wrong?
A: Not necessarily. The indicator measures RELATIVE performance. If your stock is up 50% but the sector is up 100%, your stock is actually underperforming by 50%. The indicator helps you identify when you should switch to stronger stocks in the same sector.
Q: What does "Strong Buy Setup" really mean?
A: It means three things aligned: 1) RS Score above 70 (strong stock), 2) Consistency above 75% (reliable strength), 3) Sector rotation is bullish (hot sector). This combination historically correlates with stocks that continue outperforming. However, this is NOT financial advice - always do your own analysis.
Q: Can I use this for options trading?
A: Yes! High RS Score stocks make good candidates for call options (bullish bets) while low RS Score stocks may work for puts (bearish bets). Higher Beta stocks will have more volatile options (higher premiums but more movement).
Q: Why is my crypto showing N/A for sector?
A: Cryptocurrencies don't have "sectors" like stocks do. Instead, the indicator compares crypto to the total crypto market cap. This is normal and expected behavior.
Q: What happens if I'm analyzing an ETF?
A: If you're analyzing a sector ETF (like XLK), it will compare to SPY (market). If you're analyzing SPY itself, some comparisons won't be available (can't compare SPY to itself). The indicator intelligently adapts to avoid circular comparisons.
Q: What if my stock doesn't have industry data?
A: Not all stocks are mapped to specific industries (only 30+ major industries are covered). If no industry is detected, the indicator will still work using only sector analysis. The RS Score calculation will use 100% sector weight instead of the 60%/40% split.
Q: Why does Industry vs Sector matter?
A: Industry vs Sector shows if your specific industry is hot or cold within its broader sector. For example, Semiconductors (SMH) might be outperforming Technology sector (XLK) even though both are up. This helps you find not just strong sectors, but the strongest industries within those sectors.
Q: Can I disable Industry analysis?
A: Yes! In the "Industry Analysis" settings group, you can toggle off "Show Industry Analysis in Table" to hide all industry rows. However, even when hidden, industry data still contributes to the RS Score calculation for stocks.
Q: Why is my Consistency Score lower for stocks than other assets?
A: For stocks with industry data, Consistency counts 8 periods (4 Sector + 4 Industry periods) instead of just 4. This means the bar is higher - your stock needs to beat both sector AND industry consistently. A stock that beats sector in all 4 periods but lags industry in 2 periods will show 75% consistency (6/8), not 100%.
BEST PRACTICES
Use as a screening tool - Set RS Score filter to 70+ and quickly scan your watchlist. Only strong stocks will show the table.
Combine with technical analysis - RS Score tells you WHAT to trade, your chart tells you WHEN to enter.
Check multiple timeframes - Switch between Daily and Weekly to see if strength holds across different time horizons.
Monitor sector rotation - When sector goes from bearish to bullish rotation, it's often a great time to enter stocks in that sector.
Watch Industry vs Sector - Stocks in hot industries within hot sectors have double tailwinds. Prioritize Industry vs Sector positive values.
Pay attention to consistency - High RS Score with low consistency might be a spike that fades. Look for 70%+ consistency across BOTH sector and industry.
Use the leader comparison - If your stock consistently beats both sector leader AND industry leader, you may have found the next champion.
Watch days above/below sector - Long streaks (15+ days) indicate strong trends. Look for these in conjunction with high RS Score.
Set alerts on key stocks - Enable RS Score alerts at 70 threshold to get notified when watchlist stocks become strong.
Consider Beta for position sizing - Size smaller positions in high Beta stocks, larger in low Beta stocks for balanced risk.
Exit when RS Score drops - If a stock's RS Score falls below 60, consider reducing or exiting - the strength may be fading.
Leverage industry-level insight - If Industry ETF is weak but stock is strong, that's standout strength. If Industry is hot but stock is lagging, consider switching to the industry leader instead.

Does NOT provide entry/exit signals - this is a strength analyzer, not a trading system
Does NOT predict future price movement - shows current and historical relative strength
Does NOT guarantee profits - strong RS stocks can still decline
Does NOT replace your own analysis - use as one tool among many
Does NOT work on stocks with no sector data - will adapt but some rows show N/A
This indicator is a decision support tool . It helps you identify which stocks are showing relative strength so you can make more informed trading decisions. You still need your own entry strategy, risk management, and position sizing rules.

FINAL REMINDER
This indicator is a tool for analyzing relative strength - it shows you which stocks are outperforming their sector and market. It does NOT provide financial advice or trade signals. Always conduct your own research, manage your risk appropriately, and consult with a financial advisor before making investment decisions.
Past performance of relative strength does not guarantee future results. Strong stocks can become weak, and sectors rotate in and out of favor. Use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, not as a standalone decision-making system.
Trade smart, manage risk, and may your RS Scores stay high!

indicator CalibrationIndicator Calibration - Multi-Indicator Consensus System
Overview
Indicator Calibration is a powerful consensus-based trading indicator that leverages the MyIndicatorLibrary (NormalizedIndicators) to combine multiple trend-following indicators into a single, actionable signal. By averaging the normalized outputs of up to 8 different trend indicators, this tool provides traders with a clear consensus view of market direction, reducing noise and false signals inherent in single-indicator approaches.
The indicator outputs a value between -1 (strong bearish) and +1 (strong bullish), with 0 representing a neutral market state. This creates an intuitive, easy-to-read oscillator that synthesizes multiple analytical perspectives into one coherent signal.
🎯 Core Concept
Consensus Trading Philosophy
Rather than relying on a single indicator that may give conflicting or premature signals, Indicator Calibration employs a democratic voting system where multiple indicators contribute their normalized opinion:
Each enabled indicator votes: +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral)
The votes are averaged to create a consensus signal
Strong consensus (closer to ±1) indicates high agreement among indicators
Weak consensus (closer to 0) indicates market indecision or transition
Key Benefits
Reduced False Signals: Multiple indicators must agree before strong signals appear
Noise Filtering: Individual indicator quirks are smoothed out by averaging
Customizable: Enable/disable indicators and adjust parameters to suit your trading style
Universal Application: Works across all timeframes and asset classes
Clear Visualization: Simple line oscillator with clear bull/bear zones

📈 Signal Interpretation
Output Line (Orange)
The main output oscillates between -1 and +1:
+1.0 to +0.5: Strong bullish consensus (all or most indicators agree on uptrend)
+0.5 to +0.2: Moderate bullish bias (bullish indicators outnumber bearish)
+0.2 to -0.2: Neutral zone (mixed signals or transition phase)
-0.2 to -0.5: Moderate bearish bias (bearish indicators outnumber bullish)
-0.5 to -1.0: Strong bearish consensus (all or most indicators agree on downtrend)
Reference Lines
Green line (+1): Maximum bullish consensus
Red line (-1): Maximum bearish consensus
Gray line (0): Neutral midpoint
💡 Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: Consensus Threshold Trading
Entry Rules:
- Long: Output crosses above +0.5 (strong bullish consensus)
- Short: Output crosses below -0.5 (strong bearish consensus)
Exit Rules:
- Exit Long: Output crosses below 0 (consensus lost)
- Exit Short: Output crosses above 0 (consensus lost)
Strategy 2: Zero-Line Crossover
Entry Rules:
- Long: Output crosses above 0 (bullish shift in consensus)
- Short: Output crosses below 0 (bearish shift in consensus)
Exit Rules:
- Exit on opposite crossover
Strategy 3: Divergence Trading
Look for divergences between:
- Price making higher highs while indicator makes lower highs (bearish divergence)
- Price making lower lows while indicator makes higher lows (bullish divergence)
Strategy 4: Extreme Reading Reversal
Entry Rules:
- Long: Output reaches -0.8 or below (extreme bearish consensus = potential reversal)
- Short: Output reaches +0.8 or above (extreme bullish consensus = potential reversal)
Use with caution - best combined with other reversal signals
🔧 Optimization Tips
For Trending Markets
Enable trend-following indicators: Noro's, VIDYA, Hull Suite, Leonidas
Use higher threshold levels (±0.6) to filter out minor retracements
Increase indicator periods for smoother signals
For Range-Bound Markets
Enable oscillators: BBPct, RSI
Use zero-line crossovers for entries
Decrease indicator periods for faster response
For Volatile Markets
Enable adaptive indicators: VIDYA, TRAMA
Use wider threshold levels to avoid whipsaws
Consider disabling fast indicators that may overreact
Custom Calibration Process
Start with all indicators enabled using default parameters
Backtest on your chosen timeframe and asset
Identify which indicators produce the most false signals
Disable or adjust parameters for problematic indicators
Test different threshold levels for entry/exit
Validate on out-of-sample data
📊 Visual Guide
Color Scheme
Orange Line: Main consensus output
Green Horizontal: Bullish extreme (+1)
Red Horizontal: Bearish extreme (-1)
Gray Horizontal: Neutral zone (0)
Reading the Chart
Line above 0: Net bullish sentiment
Line below 0: Net bearish sentiment
Line near extremes: Strong consensus
Line fluctuating near 0: Indecision or transition
Smooth line movement: Stable consensus

⚠️ Important Considerations
Lag Characteristics
This is a lagging indicator by design (consensus takes time to form)
Best used for trend confirmation rather than early entry
May miss the first portion of strong moves
Reduces false entries at the cost of delayed entries
Number of Active Indicators
More indicators = smoother but slower signals
Fewer indicators = faster but potentially noisier signals
Minimum recommended: 4 indicators for reliable consensus
Optimal: 6-8 indicators for balanced performance
Market Conditions
Best: Strong trending markets (up or down)
Good: Volatile markets with clear directional moves
Poor: Choppy, sideways markets with no clear trend
Worst: Low-volume, range-bound conditions
Complementary Tools
Consider combining with:
Volume analysis for confirmation
Support/resistance levels for entry/exit points
Market structure analysis (higher timeframe trends)
Risk management tools (ATR-based stops)
🎓 Example Use Cases
Swing Trading
Timeframe: Daily or 4H
Enable: All 8 indicators with default parameters
Entry: Consensus > +0.5 or < -0.5
Hold: Until consensus reverses to opposite extreme
Day Trading
Timeframe: 15m or 1H

Structure Pilot - Z&Z [Wang Indicators]Structure Pilot Zone & Zil is a complete suite of structure driven features that's build around pattern that can be visible around any timeframe.
Built in collaboration with Dave Teaches,
All these tools were shaped and combined together as the only toolkit Structure & DTFX traders want to have !
▫️ Structures & Zones ▫️
Zones are drawn when a break of structure (new high or low being created) or a market reversal happens.
It will highlight the last valid down move before a new high for bullish zones and the last valid up move before a new low for bearish zones.
These zones are used to analyze the market trend and to make entries into the market trend once the price retraces into these zones.
For example, with the latest bullish zones drawn in green for LTF zones and in blue for HTF zones, when the price retraces into this zone, there is a strong probability that the price will turn around to provide a buying opportunity all the way to the top of the zone or even higher.
These buying opportunities generally occur at specific retracement levels in the 30%, 50% and 70% zones, automatically represented by broken lines in the zones when they are created.
Example with bullish zones :
The aim with these zones is to find places on the chart where it's best to buy or sell, in order to take the biggest possible move while minimizing your risk.
Indeed, if the price is rising and a bullish zone has been created, I don't want to buy on the highs, preferring to wait for a retracement in my bullish zone to buy lower and reduce my risk, as the invalidation of the current trend will be found below the last protected low under the bullish zone drawn in blue for the HTF and in green for the LTF. Conversely, if the price is falling and a bearish zone has been created, I don't want to sell at the bottom. I'd rather wait for a retracement in the bearish zone to sell higher and reduce my risk, as the invalidation of the current trend will this time be above the last protected high above the bearish zone drawn in orange for the HTF and red for the LTF.
Example with bearish zones :
When it comes to market structure, it's good to know that zones recur within the same trend at a frequency of between 3 and 6 before there's a trend reversal.
So, after a certain number of successive zones, you can expect a reversal or the last protected high or low to be breached. The indicator automatically counts the number of successive zones, so you can keep track of the market and avoid surprises.
The zones are generated through the structure length. It can be increased to display larger (and more important) zones.
As we recommend keeping the default value (20) for new traders, experienced traders will find some success with other settings depending on their strategies.
Structure Pilot also provides auto HTF Zones, which is particularly useful to have a macro vision of the market.
Settings:
Swing types: Bullish only, Bearish only, both, or none
Structure length
Swing count: useful when it comes to tracking Trend strenght in any given time frame
Show Zones: Display boxes with 30%, 50%, and 70% fibs
Show HTF Zones: Display HTF zones with the same retracement configuration as the regular zones
Show 30%, 50% and 70%: Enable/disable these options to show or hide the corresponding fibs.
Box visibility, Line width & Line style: Style configuration for the zone
All settings can be activated or deactivated in the indicator parameters to suit individual needs and preferences.
30% Level : This is often considered a shallow retracement. If prices pull back to this level after an uptrend and flip in a lower timeframe, traders might view it as a strong sign of continued bullish momentum. Conversely, after a downtrend, this level could act as a temporary resistance where sellers might re-enter after a flip in a lower timeframe.
50% Level : This level is seen as a balance point or midpoint in the price move. A retracement to 50% can indicate a strong trend change or continuation.
70% Level : A retracement this deep can signal that the market might be losing steam or that the previous trend could be weakening. If the price bounces off this level, it might suggest that the trend is still in control but needed a more significant correction before moving further in its original direction.
We as structure traders prefer to take entry out of The 50% or when price retrace past it
there will be something at the level i'm looking for price to reverse from either some specific candles or imbalances.
Advanced traders might combine these levels with other tools or chart patterns that we bundle in this indicator.
▫️ ZIL ▫️
The ZIL Indicator is designed to automate the process of identifying key structural levels in the market and applying Fibonacci retracements when a significant price break occurs.
The indicator detects when a market structure (high or low) is broken and a candle closes below the previous low or above the previous high, indicating a potential trend shift or continuation.
• Tracks the break of structural lows or highs and waits for a confirmation candle that closes above or bellow the candle that set the new low.
Automated Fibonacci Retracement:
• Once the structure break is confirmed, the indicator automatically plots a Fibonacci retracement between:
• The high of the last bullish move (before the new low is set) or the low of the last bearish move (before the new high is set)
• The newly formed low after the structure break or the newly formed high after the structure break
Fibonacci levels plotted with colors :
• -0.27 : Dark red - Stop loss
• 0 : white - The new high/low - Potential entry
• 0.3, Orange 0.5, Light green 0.7: Green : Levels - Partial and take profit zones
• 1.15 pale blue - for your runner
We may long the retracement when the price is comming from a bearish zone using the ZIL to manage
Example :
Multi-Timeframe Support:
• Using the option "HTF ZIL" will display ZIL on higher timeframe (corresponding to the HTF Zones) on your charts to help traders find structural breaks and Fibonacci setups in both short-term and long-term markets.
HTF ZIL is really usefull to manage trades if the regular ZIL target get ran through
Wang use case :
HTF zill level are used when the small zill get ran through
▫️ Opening Range Tracker ▫️
The Opening Range Tracker is designed to help traders identify and track the opening range of a specified time period, specifically starting with the 144-minute candle between 8:24 AM and 10:48 AM. (default value) The indicator highlights this range and automatically plots key levels (30%, 50%, 70%) to provide potential strong reaction areas for trading. The time period for the opening range is fully customizable, allowing users to adjust it according to their strategy.
Opening range should be seen and used as a classic zone. If we trade above or below it price tend to come back into it and bounce of of the One or multiple level...
classic 30/50/70.
• Customizable Opening Range: Adapt the indicator to any market or session by changing the opening range time window.
• Precise Levels for Trading: The 30%, 50%, and 70% levels provide key zones where price may react, helping traders define entries, exits, or stop loss placements.
• Visual Clarity: The range box and levels make it easy to see the important price areas during the opening range and the rest of the trading session. If we range a lot in the opening range, we may range for the rest of the day. We should keep that in mind to avoid taking wrong decisions.
its basically a large zone that's we have seen often time price rejects from the level in it
Daily Reset: Each trading day resets the opening range, giving traders fresh data and new opportunities to capitalize on market movements.
Structure Pilot is built for beginner and experienced. It provides the tools to the traders that want to learn, understand, and trade efficiently within the principles of structure trading.

Lorentzian Length Adaptive Moving Average [LLAMA] Adaptation of "Machine Learning: Lorentzian Classification" by
Gradient color by base on work by
LLAMA: A regime-aware adaptive moving average that bends with the market.
Start with a problem traders know:
Traditional moving averages are either too slow (EMA200) or too fast (EMA9)
Adaptive MAs exist, but they often hug price too tightly or smooth too much, failing to balance bias and tactics
LLAMA uses a Lorentzian distance function to adapt its length dynamically. Instead of a fixed smoothing window, it stretches or contracts depending on market conditions. This distortion reduces lag while still providing a clear bias line.
The indicator looks back at recent bars and measures how similar they are using a Lorentzian distance (a log‑scaled absolute difference). It keeps track of the “nearest neighbors” — bars that most resemble the current regime. Each neighbor carries a label (long, short, neutral) based on simple price comparisons. By averaging these labels, LLAMA predicts whether the market is leaning bullish or bearish. That prediction is then mapped into a dynamic length between and .
Bullish bias -> length stretches toward max (smoother, more stable).
Bearish bias -> length contracts toward min (snappier, more reactive).
During breakouts, LLAMA tightens and comes into contact with bars, giving actionable signals. During chop, it stretches to avoid false triggers. It covers both ends of the spectrum (bias and tactics) in one line, something static MA's can't do.
Think of LLAMA as a lens that bends with the market:
Wide lens (max length) for big picture bias.
Narrow lens (min length) for tactical precision.
The "Lorentzian Loop" is the math that decides when to widen or narrow.
Count█ OVERVIEW
A library of functions for counting the number of times (frequency) that elements occur in an array or matrix.
█ USAGE
Import the Count library.
import joebaus/count/1 as c
Create an array or matrix that is a `float`, `int`, `string`, or `bool` type to count elements from, then call the count function on the array or matrix.
id = array.from(1.00, 1.50, 1.25, 1.00, 0.75, 1.25, 1.75, 1.25)
countMap = id.count() // Alternatively: countMap = c.count(id)
The "count map" will return a map with keys for each unique element in the array or matrix, and with respective values representing the number of times the unique element was counted. The keys will be the same type as the array or matrix counted. The values will always be an `int` type.
array mapKeys = countMap.keys() // Returns unique keys
array mapValues = countMap.values() // Returns counts
If an array is in ascending or descending order, then the keys of the map will also generate in the same order.
intArray = array.from(2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6) // Ascending order
map countMap = intArray.count() // Creates a "count map" of all unique elements
array mapKeys = countMap.keys() // Returns // Ascending order
array mapValues = countMap.values() // Returns count
Include a value to get the count of only that value in an array or matrix.
floatMatrix = matrix.new(3, 3, 0.0)
floatMatrix.set(0, 0, 1.0), floatMatrix.set(1, 0, 1.0), floatMatrix.set(2, 0, 1.0)
floatMatrix.set(0, 1, 1.5), floatMatrix.set(1, 1, 2.0), floatMatrix.set(2, 1, 2.5)
floatMatrix.set(0, 2, 1.0), floatMatrix.set(1, 2, 2.5), floatMatrix.set(2, 2, 1.5)
int countFloatMatrix = floatMatrix.count(1.0) // Counts all 1.0 elements, returns 5
// Alternatively: int countFloatMatrix = c.count(floatMatrix, 1.0)
The string method of count() can use strings or regular expressions like "bull*" to count all matching occurrences in a string array.
stringArray = array.from('bullish', 'bull', 'bullish', 'bear', 'bull', 'bearish', 'bearish')
int countString = stringArray.count('bullish') // Returns 2
int countStringRegex = stringArray.count('bull*') // Returns 4
To count multiple values, use an array of values instead of a single value. Returning a count map only of elements in the array.
countArray = array.from(1.0, 2.5)
map countMap = floatMatrix.count(countArray)
array mapKeys = countMap.keys() // Returns keys
array mapValues = countMap.values() // Returns counts
Multiple regex patterns or strings can be counted as well.
stringMatrix = matrix.new(3, 3, '')
stringMatrix.set(0, 0, 'a'), stringMatrix.set(1, 0, 'a'), stringMatrix.set(2, 0, 'a')
stringMatrix.set(0, 1, 'b'), stringMatrix.set(1, 1, 'c'), stringMatrix.set(2, 1, 'd')
stringMatrix.set(0, 2, 'a'), stringMatrix.set(1, 2, 'd'), stringMatrix.set(2, 2, 'b')
// Count the number of times the regex patterns `'^(a|c)$'` and `'^(b|d)$'` occur
array regexes = array.from('^(a|c)$', '^(b|d)$')
map countMap = stringMatrix.count(regexes)
array mapKeys = countMap.keys() // Returns
array mapValues = countMap.values() // Returns
An optional comparison operator can be specified to count the number of times an equality was satisfied for `float`, `int`, and `bool` methods of `count()`.
intArray = array.from(2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6)
// Count the number of times an element is greater than 4
countInt = intArray.count(4, '>') // Returns 2
When passing an array of values to count and a comparison operator, the operator will apply to each value.
intArray = array.from(2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6)
values = array.from(3, 4)
// Count the number of times and element is greater than 3 and 4
map countMap = intArray.count(values, '>')
array mapKeys = countMap.keys() // Returns
array mapValues = countMap.values() // Returns
Multiple comparison operators can be applied when counting multiple values.
intMatrix = matrix.new(3, 3, 0)
intMatrix.set(0, 0, 2), intMatrix.set(1, 0, 3), intMatrix.set(2, 0, 5)
intMatrix.set(0, 1, 2), intMatrix.set(1, 1, 4), intMatrix.set(2, 1, 2)
intMatrix.set(0, 2, 5), intMatrix.set(1, 2, 2), intMatrix.set(2, 2, 3)
values = array.from(3, 4)
comparisons = array.from('<', '>')
// Count the number of times an element is less than 3 and greater than 4
map countMap = intMatrix.count(values, comparisons)
array mapKeys = countMap.keys() // Returns
array mapValues = countMap.values() // Returns
3TF Supertrend Resonance— 4H/1H/15m+ 3TP/SLMTF Supertrend — 4H / 1H / 15m Confluence + Dynamic TP/SL + Adaptive Trend/Range Filters
This script is a multi-timeframe Supertrend confluence system designed for traders who operate on lower timeframes (15m / 1m) but want higher-timeframe structure, trend confirmation, and dynamic TP/SL projections.
It combines 4H + 1H + 15m Supertrend, trend alignment detection, range filtering, and auto-projected risk-based targets, providing a complete directional framework for both scalping and intraday swing entries.
👉1. Multi-Timeframe Supertrend Framework (4H / 1H / 15m)
The script calculates Supertrend levels and direction on three major timeframes:
-4H Supertrend
-1H Supertrend
-15m Supertrend
Users can choose between:
-Confirmed HTF values (no repaint)
-Live HTF values (more sensitive but may repaint)
Each Supertrend level is plotted on the current chart as a horizontal line, extended far to the left and slightly to the right, with optional lightweight labels showing direction and price.
These levels function as HTF dynamic support/resistance during intraday trading.
👉2. Confluence Detection (4H = 1H = 15m)
A trend confluence occurs when:
-4H direction = 1H direction = 15m direction
When the three timeframes align:
A full-height vertical line marks the first candle of confluence (color-coded bullish/bearish).
An alert is triggered:
“Triple-TF Trend Confluence — First Candle”
This identifies the earliest moment when the market shifts into unified directional behavior.
👉3. Trend Background Coloring (15m + 1m)
When confluence is active:
-Bullish confluence → Green background
-Bearish confluence → Red background
Background visualization is applied on:
-15m timeframe (main directional chart)
-1m timeframe (scalping entries with HTF alignment)
This ensures lower-timeframe decisions always stay aligned with higher-timeframe direction.
👉4. Weak-Trend / Range Detection (Only on 15m)
Even if all three timeframes are aligned, momentum may be weak.
Range/weak-trend detection activates when:
-Confluence = true
-AND (ADX < threshold OR Choppiness > threshold)
On 15m charts:
A grey overlay appears, covering green/red confluence colors.
First candle entering range shows a vertical grey mark (optional).
Alert:
“Confluence but Weak Momentum — First Candle”
This identifies moments where the market is aligned but lacking trend strength — a “trend that doesn’t move.”
👉5. Dynamic TP/SL Projection (1.5R / 3R / 4.5R)
Using the current timeframe’s Supertrend as a structural stop-loss:
SL = current Supertrend line
Risk = | Close - SL |
The script auto-calculates:
TP1 = 1.5 × risk
TP2 = 3.0 × risk
TP3 = 4.5 × risk
All projected upward for bullish trends and downward for bearish trends.
Displayed visually:
Dotted short-range lines for SL, TP1, TP2, TP3
Lightweight left-side labels showing:
SL price + distance
Individual TP prices
This provides an immediate R-multiple framework for trade planning.
👉6. 15m Supertrend Flip Indicator (Minimalistic)
When the 15m Supertrend changes direction:
A tiny circle marker is plotted:
-Bullish flip → below the bar, green
-Bearish flip → above the bar, red
Alerts:
“15m ST Flip Up (Bear → Bull)”
“15m ST Flip Down (Bull → Bear)”
This highlights early shifts in short-term structure before confluence or major trend changes occur.
👉7. Alerts Included
The script provides alerts for:
-Triple-TF Trend Confluence — First Candle
-Weak Trend / Range Start
-15m Supertrend Flip Up
-15m Supertrend Flip Down
These are practical for automated notifications when key structural conditions appear.
Summary
This script provides:
✅ Higher-Timeframe Context
4H, 1H, and 15m Supertrend levels + direction.
✅ Directional Certainty
Triple-timeframe confluence with visual + alert confirmation.
✅ Smart Background Guidance
Color-coded trend zones for 15m & 1m.
✅ Range / Weak Trend Filtering

✅ Precise Intraday Signals
15m Supertrend flips marked with minimalistic dots.
EMA MTF Trend Dashboard (Cross & Bias Modes)EMA MTF Trend Dashboard (Cross & Bias Modes)
A clean, multi-timeframe trend-alignment tool designed to support disciplined entries and higher-probability trades.
________________________________________
🔍 What This Dashboard Does
The EMA MTF Trend Dashboard provides a clear, structured view of trend direction across seven key timeframes:
1m • 5m • 15m • 30m • 1H • 4H • Daily
It highlights your execution timeframe, displays EMA-based trend direction per timeframe, and produces a plain-English directional bias using either Single EMA mode or Dual EMA Cross mode.
This makes it useful for scalpers, intraday traders, swing traders, and anyone who wants clarity before executing a trade.
________________________________________
🧠 How to Read the Dashboard
1. Execution Timeframe (Blue Row)
The blue row is your execution timeframe — the timeframe used to calculate the final bias.
• In Chart mode, it automatically matches your current chart timeframe.
• In Locked mode, it remains fixed, even if you switch to other chart timeframes.
This ensures consistency and removes any ambiguity before entering a trade.
________________________________________
2. EMA Mode (Use Any Length You Like)
You’re free to choose any EMA lengths — the dashboard adapts to your strategy.
• Smaller EMAs (5–20):
React quickly and highlight short-term momentum changes or early trend shifts.
• Larger EMAs (50–200+):
Move more slowly and provide a smoother read of overall trend structure, filtering out low-timeframe noise.
This flexibility lets you tune the dashboard to your preferred approach — whether you want fast tactical signals or slower, more stable directional structure.
________________________________________
3. Cross & Bias Modes
The dashboard supports two core engines:
✔ Single EMA Mode (Price vs EMA + ATR Neutral Buffer)
A trend-following model that avoids false signals when price is close to the EMA.
✔ Dual EMA Cross Mode (Fast vs Slow EMA)
A crossover-based trend engine ideal for traders who prefer structure shifts based on EMA alignment.
You can switch modes instantly from the settings.
________________________________________
4. Bias (Plain-English Trend Assessment)
The bias row at the bottom shows the overall directional bias for the blue timeframe, calculated using weighted multi-timeframe logic:
• Strong Bull
• Bullish
• Neutral
• Bearish
• Strong Bear
This provides instant clarity on whether market conditions support (or conflict with) your trade idea.
________________________________________
5. Trend Table (Heatmap View)
Each timeframe shows:
• ▲ Bullish
• ▼ Bearish
• – Neutral
Colour coded for clarity:
• Green = bullish
• Red = bearish
• Grey = neutral
• Blue = execution timeframe highlight
This creates a clean, at-a-glance trend heatmap.
________________________________________
⚙️ Customisation Options
• Fully adjustable EMA lengths
• Single EMA mode (with ATR neutral zone)
• Dual EMA Cross mode (fast/slow)
• Selectable text colour (dark/light theme friendly)
• Execution timeframe mode: Chart or Locked
• Compact and visually clear table layout
________________________________________
✔ Why This Tool Helps
This dashboard gives traders a structured, rule-aligned view of trend direction by:
• Keeping you aligned with broader multi-timeframe structure
• Reducing counter-trend mistakes
• Clarifying trend shifts and momentum changes
• Making decision-making faster and more consistent
• Supporting any systematic or rule-based trading plan
It is a decision-support tool, not a buy/sell signal — making it useful for all trading styles.
________________________________________
📌 Notes for Users
• Non-repainting (uses confirmed closes)
• Works universally: Forex, crypto, indices, commodities
• Suitable for scalpers, day-traders, swing traders

Smart MA Crossover█ OVERVIEW
"Smart MA Crossover" is a technical analysis indicator designed to enhance the effectiveness of strategies based on MA crossovers, combining classic moving average crossovers with breakouts from boxes and dynamic trend visualizations. The indicator is fully customizable—you can freely adjust both parameters and graphical elements.
█ CONCEPTS
Trading approaches based solely on moving average crossover moments generate a large number of false signals. Smart MA Crossover was created to improve this statistic. That's why boxes are added, which are formed from the candle where the MA crossover occurred and generate signals only upon breakout from them. The boxes have bullish (green) and bearish (red) colors. By default, the show_only_matching filter is enabled, displaying entry signals only when the breakout direction matches the box color (e.g., only upward for a bullish box). Boxes are by default the size of the candle on which the crossover occurred, but their size can be adjusted to suit your strategy via an optional average candle size multiplier.
█ FEATURES
- Moving Averages: Two configurable MAs (fast_length, default 10; slow_length, default 30) with selectable type (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA). Optionally displayed with gradient fill between them (color depends on trend: green for uptrend, red for downtrend).
- MA Gradient and Candle Coloring: Enable gradient fill between MAs (transparency: gradient_opacity, default 85) and dynamic candle coloring based on trend (green/red).
- Fog Gradient Trend: Multi-layered gradient "fog" around hl2, consisting of 5 levels up and down, with offset based on average candle size (offset_mult, default 0.7) and increasing transparency (base_transp, default 80; transp_inc, default 4). Fog colors are dynamic (green/red).
- Breakout Boxes: Created at the moment of MA crossover, extending to the right. Box height optionally multiplied by average candle size (use_box_multiplier, box_multiplier, default 1.0). Boxes close and generate a signal when price breaks out beyond the top/bottom edge.
Signals:
- Triangles: Green downward triangles (buy breakout) below the bar, red upward triangles (sell breakout) above the bar—only on breakouts matching direction (if show_only_matching = true). When the matching filter is disabled, every box generates a signal based not on the MA crossover, but on the breakout direction.
- Labels: “BUY” (green, below bar) and “SELL” (red, iabove bar) with transparent background (transparency 40).
- Matching Filter: The show_only_matching option limits signals to breakouts consistent with box direction (bullish box → only buy, bearish → only sell).
- Visualization: Gradient MA lines, fill between MAs, multi-layered fog with increasing transparency, boxes with transparent background (85) and colored borders, dynamic trend colors.
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for BUY and SELL signals (with message including ticker and timeframe).
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator via Pine Editor or the Indicators menu on TradingView.
Configure Settings:
- MA Settings: Adjust fast (fast_length, default 10) and slow (slow_length, default 30) MA lengths and type (ma_type, default SMA).
- Visualization: Enable/disable MA lines (show_ma_lines), MA gradient (use_gradient_ma), fog trend (show_fog), candle coloring (color_candles).
- Boxes and Breakouts: Enable candle size multiplier (use_box_multiplier) and set value (box_multiplier, default 1.0). Enable signal filter (show_only_matching).
- Signals: Choose type (signal_type): Triangles or Labels (Buy/Sell).
- Fog Trend: Adjust offset (offset_mult), base transparency (base_transp), and increment (transp_inc). Select trend colors (col_up, col_dn).
Signal Interpretation:
- Buy Signals: Green triangles below the bar or “BUY” label—on upward breakout from a bullish box (after bull cross).
- Sell Signals: Red triangles above the bar or “SELL” label—on downward breakout from a bearish box (after bear cross).
- Fog and Gradient: green fog/fill = uptrend; red = downtrend.
- Boxes: Active boxes indicate potential breakout zones; their closure confirms the move.
Signal Confirmation: Use with other tools, such as support/resistance levels, volume, or additional MAs to filter false crossovers.
█ APPLICATIONS
- MA Cross Strategies: Replace classic crossovers—boxes and breakouts eliminate many false signals, thereby increasing effectiveness. Confirm with other indicators, e.g., RSI, Fibonacci, FVG, pivot levels.
- Trend Following: Can be used as a classic trend indicator, especially with larger MA values.
█ NOTES
- Test the indicator across different timeframes and assets, adjusting MA lengths and box multiplier to market volatility.
- In consolidating markets, the indicator generates more false signals.
High Volume Zones with Signals – HVZ█ OVERVIEW
"High Volume Zones with Signals – HVZ" is a technical analysis indicator that identifies High Volume Zones (HVZ) on the chart and draws them as fully customizable boxes. Perfect for traders using price action, ICT, and Smart Money Concepts. The indicator highlights key volume-based support/resistance levels, detects potential consolidation zones (very large candles), and generates precise breakout and exit signals. Flexible volume filters, ATR filter, and visual styling options ensure a clean and highly effective chart.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator detects candles with volume significantly above the average (default ≥ 2× SMA of volume over 20 periods). Such candles often signal institutional activity and create strong supply/demand zones.
The ATR filter additionally identifies very large candles – frequently a sign of market capitulation (panic buying/selling). Within the range of such a candle, prolonged consolidation often occurs, especially on higher timeframes (e.g., 4H and above).
Why are HVZ important? High-volume zones are areas where the market has left a large number of orders – institutions return there to “refresh” liquidity before the next move. A breakout against the zone’s character triggers a Break signal:
- Bullish HVZ broken downward (close below the lower boundary) → Break Down (sell),
- Bearish HVZ broken upward (close above the upper boundary) → Break Up (buy).
Note: The indicator requires real exchange volume – it will not work correctly on instruments without reported volume (e.g., certain CFDs or forex).
█ FEATURES
- HVZ Detection: Automatic identification of high-volume zones with Volume SMA Length and Volume Multiplier filters; historical initialization up to 500 candles back.
- ATR Filter: Optional detection of very large candles (potential consolidation/capitulation) using - ATR Length and ATR Multiplier; three action modes:
Skip Zone – large candle creates no zone,
Separate Color – zone is drawn in a distinct style (gray by default),
Normal Zone – treated like a regular HVZ.
- Gray zones (large candles, Separate Color): generate exactly the same Break signals as regular zones – based solely on the original candle direction (bullish → Break Down on lower break, bearish → Break Up on upper break). Gray color is only a visual marker for potential consolidation/capitulation zones.
- Customizable Boxes: Separate styles for bullish and bearish zones (border color, background gradient, line thickness and style); adjustable background and 50 % midline transparency.
- Break & Exit Signals:
Break Up/Down – green/red triangle after a candle closes outside the zone (zone disappears, triangle remains as a trace).
Exit Up/Down – green/red circle when price leaves the zone without a full breakout.
Signal Type option: Break, Exit, or Both.
- Midline: Automatic dashed line at the 50 % zone level with independent transparency control.
- Chart Cleanup: Automatic removal of inactive zones older than 500 candles (max_boxes_count=500).
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for Break Up and Break Down with clear messages.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Paste the script in Pine Editor or find it in TradingView’s indicator library.
Configure Settings:
- Volume Filter: Volume SMA Length (default 20) and Volume Multiplier (default 2.0) – higher multiplier = fewer but stronger zones.
- ATR Filter: Enable/disable, set ATR Length (14) and ATR Multiplier (3.5); choose action for very large candles (Skip Zone / Separate Color / Normal Zone).
- Box Style: Background transparency (90) and midline transparency (70).
- Bull/Bear Box Style: Border and gradient colors, line thickness (1-5).
- ATR Style: Separate colors for large-candle zones (gray by default).
- Signal Settings: Choose Signal Type (Break/Exit/Both) and signal colors.
Signal Interpretation:
- Break Up (green triangle below bar): Bearish HVZ broken upward → buy signal, continuation of uptrend.
- Break Down (red triangle above bar): Bullish HVZ broken downward → sell signal, continuation of downtrend.
- Exit Up/Down (circles): Price leaves zone without breakout – may signal end of correction or reversal setup.
- HVZ Zones: Price often returns to high-volume zones to clear orders. An unfilled zone remains a price magnet.
- 50 % Level (midline): Ideal target for partial take-profit or reaction point inside the zone.
Combine signals with other tools (e.g., RSI, MACD, higher timeframes) for higher confidence.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Price Action & ICT: HVZ act as dynamic S/R; in an uptrend look for buys after breaking a bearish HVZ, in a downtrend look for sells after breaking a bullish HVZ. If you trade retests instead of breakouts, increase Volume Multiplier to 2.5-3.0 – fewer zones but much stronger. Note that after breaking a very strong zone, price often pulls back deeply before continuing.
- Breakout Strategies: For maximum Break signals, lower Volume Multiplier to 1.5-1.8 – gives many high-quality entries in trending markets. Always trade in the direction of the prevailing trend (e.g., only longs in uptrends). Enter after a Break signal with confirmation from volume or momentum (MACD above zero, RSI >50 for longs, <50 for shorts).
█ NOTES
- The indicator requires real exchange volume – it will not function properly on instruments without reported volume (e.g., certain CFDs, forex).
- Always confirm signals with additional context (market structure, higher timeframe).
Range breaking indicatorDescription
Bull/Bear Area Ratio (last N candles) helps identify potential end-of-range situations by analyzing the relative strength of bullish vs bearish candles over a rolling window of N bars.
Instead of simply counting up or down candles, this script measures the "area" of each candle — the absolute distance between open and close, optionally weighted by volume.
By summing these areas over the last N bars, it calculates the percentage of bullish and bearish energy within that period.
When both sides become balanced (near 50/50), it often signals range exhaustion or possible trend transition.
How it works
Calculates the bullish and bearish area of each candle (abs(close - open), optionally × volume).
Maintains rolling buffers of the last N bars to compute running totals.
Plots both Bullish % (green) and Bearish % (red).
Highlights possible range-ending zones when the bullish ratio nears 50% ± threshold.
Displays a label showing the current balance.
Includes an alert condition when equilibrium is detected.
Inputs
Number of candles (N) – Rolling window length.
Use volume weighting – Multiplies each candle’s area by its volume.
Balance threshold (%) – Sensitivity for detecting equilibrium (default: 10%).
Best use
Combine with volume or volatility indicators to confirm market compression or expansion.
Use on higher timeframes (H1, H4, D1) to detect early signs of accumulation or distribution.
Works across all asset types: crypto, forex, stocks, indices, etc.
Alerts
An alert is triggered when:
“The range of the last N candles is balanced (possible end of range).”
