Strategy Myth-Busting #3 - BB_BUY+SuperTrend - [MYN]This is part of a new series we are calling "Strategy Myth-Busting" where we take open public manual trading strategies and automate them. The goal is to not only validate the authenticity of the claims but to provide an automated version for traders who wish to trade autonomously.
Our third one we are automating is one of the strategies from "The Best 3 Buy And Sell Indicators on Tradingview + Confirmation Indicators ( The Golden Ones ))" from "Online Trading Signals (Scalping Channel)". No formal backtesting was done by them so wanted to validate their claims.
If you know of or have a strategy you want to see myth-busted or just have an idea for one, please feel free to message me.
This strategy uses a combination of 2 open-source public indicators:
BB_Buy and Sell by guikroth (default settings)
SuperTrend from TradingView's Technicals (default settings)
Trading Rules
15 min candles
Long
Long condition when BB_BUY indicates buy signal and SuperTrend is green
Short
Short condition when BB_BUY indicates Sell signal and SuperTrend is red

## What are vector candles?
Vector Candles (inspired to add from TradersReality/MT4) are candles that are colour coded to indicate higher volumes, and likely flip points / direction changes, or confirmations.
These are based off of PVSRA (Price, Volume, Support, Resistance Analysis).
You can also override the currency that this runs off of, including multiple ones - however adding more may slow things down.
PVSRA - From MT4 source:
Situation "Climax"
Bars with volume >= 200% of the average volume of the 10 previous chart TFs, and bars
where the product of candle spread x candle volume is >= the highest for the 10 previous
chart time TFs.
Default Colours: Bull bars are green and bear bars are red.
Situation "Volume Rising Above Average"
Bars with volume >= 150% of the average volume of the 10 previous chart TFs.
Default Colours: Bull bars are blue and bear are blue-violet.
A blue or purple bar can mean the chart has reached a top or bottom.
High volume bars during a movement can indicate a big movement is coming - or a top/bottom if bulls/bears are unable to break that point - or the volume direction has flipped.
This can also just be a healthy short term movement in the opposite direction - but at times sets obvious trend shifts.
## Volume Tracking
You can shift-click any candle to get the volume of that candle (in the pair token/stock), if you click and drag - you will see the volume for that range.
## Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands can be enabled in the settings via the toggle.
Bollinger Bands are designed to discover opportunities that give investors a higher probability of properly identifying when an asset is oversold (bottom lines) or overbought (top lines).
>There are three lines that compose Bollinger Bands: A simple moving average (middle band) and an upper and lower band.
>The upper and lower bands are typically 2 standard deviations +/- from a 20-day simple moving average, but they can be modified.

Base Indicator
## What is ATR?
The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator, which measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
The true range indicator is taken as the greatest of the following:
- current high - the current low;
- the absolute value of the current high - the previous close;
- and the absolute value of the current low - the previous close.
The ATR is then a moving average, generally using 10/14 days, of the true ranges.
## What does this indicator do?
Uses the ATR and multipliers to help you predict price volatility, ranges and trend direction.
> The buy and sell signals are generated when the indicator starts
plotting either on top of the closing price or below the closing price. A buy signal is generated when the ‘Supertrend’ closes above the price and a sell signal is generated when it closes below the closing price.
> It also suggests that the trend is shifting from descending mode to ascending mode. Contrary to this, when a ‘Supertrend’ closes above the price, it generates a sell signal as the colour of the indicator changes into red.
> A ‘Supertrend’ indicator can be used on equities, futures or forex, or even crypto markets and also on daily, weekly and hourly charts as well, but generally, it will be less effective in a sideways-moving market.
Thanks to KivancOzbilgic who made the original SuperTrend Indicator this was based off

## Usage Notes
Two indicators will appear, the default ATR multipliers are already set for what I believe to be perfect for this particular (double indicator) strategy.
If you want to break it yourself (I couldn't find anything that tested more accurately myself), you can do so in the settings once you have added the indicator.
Basic rundown:
- A single Buy/Sell indicator in the dim colour; may be setting a direction change, or just healthy movement.
- When the brighter Buy/Sell indicator appears; it often means that a change in direction (uptrend or downtrend) is confirmed.
---
You can see here, there was a (brighter) green indicator which flipped down then up into a (brighter) red sell indicator which set the downtrend. At the end it looks like it may be starting to break the downtrend - as the price is hitting the trend line. (Would watch for whether it holds above or drops below at that point)
Another example, showing how sometimes it can still be correct but take some time to play out - with some arrow indicators.
Typically I would also look at oscillators, RSI and other things to confirm - but here it held above the trend lines nicely, so it appeared to be rather obvious.
It's worth paying attention to the trend lines and where the candles are sitting.
Once you understand/get a feel for the basics of how it works - it can become a very useful tool in your trading arsenal.
Also works for traditional markets & commodities etc in the same way / using the same ATR multipliers, however of course crypto generally has bigger moves.
---
You can use this and other indicators to confirm likeliness of a direction change prior to the brighter/confirmation one appearing - but just going by the 2nd(brighter) indicators, I have found it to be surprisingly accurate.
Tends to work well on virtually all timeframes, but personally prefer to use it on 5min,15min,1hr, 4hr, daily, weekly. Will still work for shorter/other timeframes, but may be more accurate on mid ones.
---
This will likely be updated as I go / find useful additions that don't convolute things. The base indicator may be updated with some limited / toggle-able features in future also.
Digital Kahler Stochastic [Loxx]Digital Kahler Stochastic is a Digital Kahler filtered Stochastic. This modification significantly reduces noise.
What is Digital Kahler?
From Philipp Kahler's article for www.traders-mag.com, August 2008. "A Classic Indicator in a New Suit: Digital Stochastic"
Digital Indicators
Whenever you study the development of trading systems in particular, you will be struck in an extremely unpleasant way by the seemingly unmotivated indentations and changes in direction of each indicator. An experienced trader can recognise many false signals of the indicator on the basis of his solid background; a stupid trading system usually falls into any trap offered by the unclear indicator course. This is what motivated me to improve even further this and other indicators with the help of a relatively simple procedure. The goal of this development is to be able to use this indicator in a trading system with as few additional conditions as possible. Discretionary traders will likewise be happy about this clear course, which is not nerve-racking and makes concentrating on the essential elements of trading possible.
How Is It Done?
The digital stochastic is a child of the original indicator. We owe a debt of gratitude to George Lane for his idea to design an indicator which describes the position of the current price within the high-low range of the historical price movement. My contribution to this indicator is the changed pattern which improves the quality of the signal without generating too long delays in giving signals. The trick used to generate this “digital” behavior of the indicator. It can be used with most oscillators like RSI or CCI .
First of all, the original is looked at. The indicator always moves between 0 and 100. The precise position of the indicator or its course relative to the trigger line are of no interest to me, I would just like to know whether the indicator is quoted below or above the value 50. This is tantamount to the question of whether the market is just trading above or below the middle of the high-low range of the past few days. If the market trades in the upper half of its high-low range, then the digital stochastic is given the value 1; if the original stochastic is below 50, then the value –1 is given. This leads to a sequence of 1/-1 values – the digital core of the new indicator. These values are subsequently smoothed by means of a short exponential moving average . This way minor false signals are eliminated and the indicator is given its typical form.
Calculation
The calculation is simple
Step1: create the CCI
Step 2: Use CCI as Fast MA and smoothed CCI as Slow MA
Step 3: Multiple the Slow and Fast MAs by their respective input ratios, and then divide by their sum. if the result is greater than 0, then the result is 1, if it's less than 0 then the result is -1, then chart the data
if ((slowr * slow_k + fastr * fast_k) / (fastr + slowr) > 50.0)
temp := 1
if ((slowr * slow_k + fastr * fast_k) / (fastr + slowr) < 50.0)
temp := -1
Step 4: Profit

Loxx's Moving Averages
VHF-Adaptive, Digital Kahler Variety RSI w/ Dynamic Zones [Loxx]VHF-Adaptive, Digital Kahler Variety RSI w/ Dynamic Zones is an RSI indicator with adaptive inputs, Digital Kahler filtering, and Dynamic Zones. This indicator uses a Vertical Horizontal Filter for calculating the adaptive period inputs and allows the user to select from 7 different types of RSI.
What is VHF Adaptive Cycle?
Vertical Horizontal Filter (VHF) was created by Adam White to identify trending and ranging markets. VHF measures the level of trend activity, similar to ADX DI. Vertical Horizontal Filter does not, itself, generate trading signals, but determines whether signals are taken from trend or momentum indicators. Using this trend information, one is then able to derive an average cycle length.

What are Dynamic Zones?
As explained in "Stocks & Commodities V15:7 (306-310): Dynamic Zones by Leo Zamansky, Ph .D., and David Stendahl"
Most indicators use a fixed zone for buy and sell signals. Here’ s a concept based on zones that are responsive to past levels of the indicator.
One approach to active investing employs the use of oscillators to exploit tradable market trends. This investing style follows a very simple form of logic: Enter the market only when an oscillator has moved far above or below traditional trading lev- els. However, these oscillator- driven systems lack the ability to evolve with the market because they use fixed buy and sell zones. Traders typically use one set of buy and sell zones for a bull market and substantially different zones for a bear market. And therein lies the problem.
Once traders begin introducing their market opinions into trading equations, by changing the zones, they negate the system’s mechanical nature. The objective is to have a system automatically define its own buy and sell zones and thereby profitably trade in any market — bull or bear. Dynamic zones offer a solution to the problem of fixed buy and sell zones for any oscillator-driven system.
An indicator’s extreme levels can be quantified using statistical methods. These extreme levels are calculated for a certain period and serve as the buy and sell zones for a trading system. The repetition of this statistical process for every value of the indicator creates values that become the dynamic zones. The zones are calculated in such a way that the probability of the indicator value rising above, or falling below, the dynamic zones is equal to a given probability input set by the trader.
To better understand dynamic zones, let's first describe them mathematically and then explain their use. The dynamic zones definition:
Find V such that:
For dynamic zone buy: P{X <= V}=P1
For dynamic zone sell: P{X >= V}=P2
where P1 and P2 are the probabilities set by the trader, X is the value of the indicator for the selected period and V represents the value of the dynamic zone.
The probability input P1 and P2 can be adjusted by the trader to encompass as much or as little data as the trader would like. The smaller the probability, the fewer data values above and below the dynamic zones. This translates into a wider range between the buy and sell zones. If a 10% probability is used for P1 and P2, only those data values that make up the top 10% and bottom 10% for an indicator are used in the construction of the zones. Of the values, 80% will fall between the two extreme levels. Because dynamic zone levels are penetrated so infrequently, when this happens, traders know that the market has truly moved into overbought or oversold territory.
Calculating the Dynamic Zones
The algorithm for the dynamic zones is a series of steps. First, decide the value of the lookback period t. Next, decide the value of the probability Pbuy for buy zone and value of the probability Psell for the sell zone.
For i=1, to the last lookback period, build the distribution f(x) of the price during the lookback period i. Then find the value Vi1 such that the probability of the price less than or equal to Vi1 during the lookback period i is equal to Pbuy. Find the value Vi2 such that the probability of the price greater or equal to Vi2 during the lookback period i is equal to Psell. The sequence of Vi1 for all periods gives the buy zone. The sequence of Vi2 for all periods gives the sell zone.
In the algorithm description, we have: Build the distribution f(x) of the price during the lookback period i. The distribution here is empirical namely, how many times a given value of x appeared during the lookback period. The problem is to find such x that the probability of a price being greater or equal to x will be equal to a probability selected by the user. Probability is the area under the distribution curve. The task is to find such value of x that the area under the distribution curve to the right of x will be equal to the probability selected by the user. That x is the dynamic zone.

Information about these moving averages was gleaned from various forex and trading forums and platforms as well as TASC publications and other assorted research publications.
________________________________________________________________
Included moving averages
ADXvma - Average Directional Volatility Moving Average
Linnsoft's ADXvma formula is a volatility-based moving average, with the volatility being determined by the value of the ADX indicator.
The ADXvma has the SMA in Chande's CMO replaced with an EMA, it then uses a few more layers of EMA smoothing before the "Volatility Index" is calculated.
A side effect is, those additional layers slow down the ADXvma when you compare it to Chande's Variable Index Dynamic Average VIDYA.
The ADXVMA provides support during uptrends and resistance during downtrends and will stay flat for longer, but will create some of the most accurate market signals when it decides to move.
Ahrens Moving Average
Richard D. Ahrens's Moving Average promises "Smoother Data" that isn't influenced by the occasional price spike. It works by using the Open and the Close in his formula so that the only time the Ahrens Moving Average will change is when the candlestick is either making new highs or new lows.
Alexander Moving Average - ALXMA
This Moving Average uses an elaborate smoothing formula and utilizes a 7 period Moving Average. It corresponds to fitting a second-order polynomial to seven consecutive observations. This moving average is rarely used in trading but is interesting as this Moving Average has been applied to diffusion indexes that tend to be very volatile.
Double Exponential Moving Average - DEMA
The Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) combines a smoothed EMA and a single EMA to provide a low-lag indicator. It's primary purpose is to reduce the amount of "lagging entry" opportunities, and like all Moving Averages, the DEMA confirms uptrends whenever price crosses on top of it and closes above it, and confirms downtrends when the price crosses under it and closes below it - but with significantly less lag.
Double Smoothed Exponential Moving Average - DSEMA
The Double Smoothed Exponential Moving Average is a lot less laggy compared to a traditional EMA. It's also considered a leading indicator compared to the EMA, and is best utilized whenever smoothness and speed of reaction to market changes are required.
Exponential Moving Average - EMA
The EMA places more significance on recent data points and moves closer to price than the SMA (Simple Moving Average). It reacts faster to volatility due to its emphasis on recent data and is known for its ability to give greater weight to recent and more relevant data. The EMA is therefore seen as an enhancement over the SMA.
Fast Exponential Moving Average - FEMA
An Exponential Moving Average with a short look-back period.
Fractal Adaptive Moving Average - FRAMA
The Fractal Adaptive Moving Average by John Ehlers is an intelligent adaptive Moving Average which takes the importance of price changes into account and follows price closely enough to display significant moves whilst remaining flat if price ranges. The FRAMA does this by dynamically adjusting the look-back period based on the market's fractal geometry.
Hull Moving Average - HMA
Alan Hull's HMA makes use of weighted moving averages to prioritize recent values and greatly reduce lag whilst maintaining the smoothness of a traditional Moving Average. For this reason, it's seen as a well-suited Moving Average for identifying entry points.
IE/2 - Early T3 by Tim Tilson
The IE/2 is a Moving Average that uses Linear Regression slope in its calculation to help with smoothing. It's a worthy Moving Average on it's own, even though it is the precursor and very early version of the famous "T3 Indicator".
Integral of Linear Regression Slope - ILRS
A Moving Average where the slope of a linear regression line is simply integrated as it is fitted in a moving window of length N (natural numbers in maths) across the data. The derivative of ILRS is the linear regression slope. ILRS is not the same as a SMA (Simple Moving Average) of length N, which is actually the midpoint of the linear regression line as it moves across the data.
Instantaneous Trendline
The Instantaneous Trendline is created by removing the dominant cycle component from the price information which makes this Moving Average suitable for medium to long-term trading.
Laguerre Filter
The Laguerre Filter is a smoothing filter which is based on Laguerre polynomials. The filter requires the current price, three prior prices, a user defined factor called Alpha to fill its calculation.
Adjusting the Alpha coefficient is used to increase or decrease its lag and it's smoothness.
Leader Exponential Moving Average
The Leader EMA was created by Giorgos E. Siligardos who created a Moving Average which was able to eliminate lag altogether whilst maintaining some smoothness. It was first described during his research paper "MACD Leader" where he applied this to the MACD to improve its signals and remove its lagging issue. This filter uses his leading MACD's "modified EMA" and can be used as a zero lag filter.
Linear Regression Value - LSMA (Least Squares Moving Average)
LSMA as a Moving Average is based on plotting the end point of the linear regression line. It compares the current value to the prior value and a determination is made of a possible trend, eg. the linear regression line is pointing up or down.
Linear Weighted Moving Average - LWMA
LWMA reacts to price quicker than the SMA and EMA. Although it's similar to the Simple Moving Average, the difference is that a weight coefficient is multiplied to the price which means the most recent price has the highest weighting, and each prior price has progressively less weight. The weights drop in a linear fashion.
McGinley Dynamic
John McGinley created this Moving Average to track price better than traditional Moving Averages. It does this by incorporating an automatic adjustment factor into its formula, which speeds (or slows) the indicator in trending, or ranging, markets.
McNicholl EMA
Dennis McNicholl developed this Moving Average to use as his center line for his "Better Bollinger Bands" indicator and was successful because it responded better to volatility changes over the standard SMA and managed to avoid common whipsaws.
Non lag moving average
The Non Lag Moving average follows price closely and gives very quick signals as well as early signals of price change. As a standalone Moving Average, it should not be used on its own, but as an additional confluence tool for early signals.
Parabolic Weighted Moving Average
The Parabolic Weighted Moving Average is a variation of the Linear Weighted Moving Average. The Linear Weighted Moving Average calculates the average by assigning different weight to each element in its calculation. The Parabolic Weighted Moving Average is a variation that allows weights to be changed to form a parabolic curve. It is done simply by using the Power parameter of this indicator.
Recursive Moving Trendline
Dennis Meyers's Recursive Moving Trendline uses a recursive (repeated application of a rule) polynomial fit, a technique that uses a small number of past values estimations of price and today's price to predict tomorrows price.
Simple Moving Average - SMA
The SMA calculates the average of a range of prices by adding recent prices and then dividing that figure by the number of time periods in the calculation average. It is the most basic Moving Average which is seen as a reliable tool for starting off with Moving Average studies. As reliable as it may be, the basic moving average will work better when it's enhanced into an EMA.
Sine Weighted Moving Average
The Sine Weighted Moving Average assigns the most weight at the middle of the data set. It does this by weighting from the first half of a Sine Wave Cycle and the most weighting is given to the data in the middle of that data set. The Sine WMA closely resembles the TMA (Triangular Moving Average).
Smoothed Moving Average - SMMA
The Smoothed Moving Average is similar to the Simple Moving Average (SMA), but aims to reduce noise rather than reduce lag. SMMA takes all prices into account and uses a long lookback period. Due to this, it's seen a an accurate yet laggy Moving Average.
Smoother
The Smoother filter is a faster-reacting smoothing technique which generates considerably less lag than the SMMA (Smoothed Moving Average). It gives earlier signals but can also create false signals due to its earlier reactions. This filter is sometimes wrongly mistaken for the superior Jurik Smoothing algorithm.
Super Smoother
The Super Smoother filter uses John Ehlers’s “Super Smoother” which consists of a a Two pole Butterworth filter combined with a 2-bar SMA (Simple Moving Average) that suppresses the 22050 Hz Nyquist frequency: A characteristic of a sampler, which converts a continuous function or signal into a discrete sequence.
Three pole Ehlers Butterworth
The 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth (as well as the Two pole Butterworth) are both superior alternatives to the EMA and SMA. They aim at producing less lag whilst maintaining accuracy. The 2 pole filter will give you a better approximation for price, whereas the 3 pole filter has superior smoothing.
Three pole Ehlers smoother
The 3 pole Ehlers smoother works almost as close to price as the above mentioned 3 Pole Ehlers Butterworth. It acts as a strong baseline for signals but removes some noise. Side by side, it hardly differs from the Three Pole Ehlers Butterworth but when examined closely, it has better overshoot reduction compared to the 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth.
Triangular Moving Average - TMA
The TMA is similar to the EMA but uses a different weighting scheme. Exponential and weighted Moving Averages will assign weight to the most recent price data. Simple moving averages will assign the weight equally across all the price data. With a TMA (Triangular Moving Average), it is double smoother (averaged twice) so the majority of the weight is assigned to the middle portion of the data.
The TMA and Sine Weighted Moving Average Filter are almost identical at times.
Triple Exponential Moving Average - TEMA
The TEMA uses multiple EMA calculations as well as subtracting lag to create a tool which can be used for scalping pullbacks. As it follows price closely, it's signals are considered very noisy and should only be used in extremely fast-paced trading conditions.
Two pole Ehlers Butterworth
The 2 pole Ehlers Butterworth (as well as the three pole Butterworth mentioned above) is another filter that cuts out the noise and follows the price closely. The 2 pole is seen as a faster, leading filter over the 3 pole and follows price a bit more closely. Analysts will utilize both a 2 pole and a 3 pole Butterworth on the same chart using the same period, but having both on chart allows its crosses to be traded.
Two pole Ehlers smoother
A smoother version of the Two pole Ehlers Butterworth. This filter is the faster version out of the 3 pole Ehlers Butterworth. It does a decent job at cutting out market noise whilst emphasizing a closer following to price over the 3 pole Ehlers.
Volume Weighted EMA - VEMA
Utilizing tick volume in MT4 (or real volume in MT5), this EMA will use the Volume reading in its decision to plot its moves. The more Volume it detects on a move, the more authority (confirmation) it has. And this EMA uses those Volume readings to plot its movements.
Studies show that tick volume and real volume have a very strong correlation, so using this filter in MT4 or MT5 produces very similar results and readings.
Zero Lag DEMA - Zero Lag Double Exponential Moving Average
John Ehlers's Zero Lag DEMA's aim is to eliminate the inherent lag associated with all trend following indicators which average a price over time. Because this is a Double Exponential Moving Average with Zero Lag, it has a tendency to overshoot and create a lot of false signals for swing trading. It can however be used for quick scalping or as a secondary indicator for confluence.
Zero Lag Moving Average
The Zero Lag Moving Average is described by its creator, John Ehlers, as a Moving Average with absolutely no delay. And it's for this reason that this filter will cause a lot of abrupt signals which will not be ideal for medium to long-term traders. This filter is designed to follow price as close as possible whilst de-lagging data instead of basing it on regular data. The way this is done is by attempting to remove the cumulative effect of the Moving Average.
Zero Lag TEMA - Zero Lag Triple Exponential Moving Average
Just like the Zero Lag DEMA, this filter will give you the fastest signals out of all the Zero Lag Moving Averages. This is useful for scalping but dangerous for medium to long-term traders, especially during market Volatility and news events. Having no lag, this filter also has no smoothing in its signals and can cause some very bizarre behavior when applied to certain indicators.

What are Heiken Ashi "better" candles?
The "better formula" was proposed in an article/memo by BNP-Paribas (In Warrants & Zertifikate, No. 8, August 2004 (a monthly German magazine published by BNP Paribas, Frankfurt), there is an article by Sebastian Schmidt about further development (smoothing) of Heikin-Ashi chart.)
They proposed to use the following:
(Open+Close)/2+(((Close-Open)/( High-Low ))*ABS((Close-Open)/2))
instead of using :
haClose = (O+H+L+C)/4
According to that document the HA representation using their proposed formula is better than the traditional formula.
What are traditional Heiken-Ashi candles?
The Heikin-Ashi technique averages price data to create a Japanese candlestick chart that filters out market noise.
Heikin-Ashi charts, developed by Munehisa Homma in the 1700s, share some characteristics with standard candlestick charts but differ based on the values used to create each candle. Instead of using the open, high, low, and close like standard candlestick charts, the Heikin-Ashi technique uses a modified formula based on two-period averages. This gives the chart a smoother appearance, making it easier to spots trends and reversals, but also obscures gaps and some price data.
Expanded generic source types:
Close = close
Open = open
High = high
Low = low
Median = hl2
Typical = hlc3
Weighted = hlcc4
Average = ohlc4
Average Median Body = (open+close)/2
Trend Biased = (see code, too complex to explain here)
Trend Biased (extreme) = (see code, too complex to explain here)
Included:
-Toggle bar color on/off
-Toggle signal line on/off
Jurik CFB Adaptive, Elder Force Index w/ ATR Channels [Loxx]Jurik CFB Adaptive, Elder Force Index w/ ATR Channels is a variation of Elder Force Index that better adapts to trends by calculating dynamic lengths for the traditional Elder Force Index calculation. ATR channels are added to show levels of price extremes or exhaustion of price either up or down. Elder Force Index is typically used for spotting reversals on the weekly timeframe.
What is the Elder Force Index?
Dr. Alexander Elder is one of the contributors to a newer generation of technical indicators. His force index is an oscillator that measures the force, or power, of bulls behind particular market rallies and of bears behind every decline.1
The three key components of the force index are the direction of price change, the extent of the price change, and the trading volume. When the force index is used in conjunction with a moving average, the resulting figure can accurately measure significant changes in the power of bulls and bears.1 In this way, Elder has taken an extremely useful solitary indicator, the moving average, and combined it with his force index for even greater predictive success.
What is Composite Fractal Behavior ( CFB )?
All around you mechanisms adjust themselves to their environment. From simple thermostats that react to air temperature to computer chips in modern cars that respond to changes in engine temperature, r.p.m.'s, torque, and throttle position. It was only a matter of time before fast desktop computers applied the mathematics of self-adjustment to systems that trade the financial markets.
Unlike basic systems with fixed formulas, an adaptive system adjusts its own equations. For example, start with a basic channel breakout system that uses the highest closing price of the last N bars as a threshold for detecting breakouts on the up side. An adaptive and improved version of this system would adjust N according to market conditions, such as momentum, price volatility or acceleration.
Since many systems are based directly or indirectly on cycles, another useful measure of market condition is the periodic length of a price chart's dominant cycle, (DC), that cycle with the greatest influence on price action.
The utility of this new DC measure was noted by author Murray Ruggiero in the January '96 issue of Futures Magazine. In it. Mr. Ruggiero used it to adaptive adjust the value of N in a channel breakout system. He then simulated trading 15 years of D-Mark futures in order to compare its performance to a similar system that had a fixed optimal value of N. The adaptive version produced 20% more profit!
This DC index utilized the popular MESA algorithm (a formulation by John Ehlers adapted from Burg's maximum entropy algorithm, MEM). Unfortunately, the DC approach is problematic when the market has no real dominant cycle momentum, because the mathematics will produce a value whether or not one actually exists! Therefore, we developed a proprietary indicator that does not presuppose the presence of market cycles. It's called CFB (Composite Fractal Behavior) and it works well whether or not the market is cyclic.
CFB examines price action for a particular fractal pattern, categorizes them by size, and then outputs a composite fractal size index. This index is smooth, timely and accurate
Essentially, CFB reveals the length of the market's trending action time frame. Long trending activity produces a large CFB index and short choppy action produces a small index value. Investors have found many applications for CFB which involve scaling other existing technical indicators adaptively, on a bar-to-bar basis.
What is Jurik Volty used in the Juirk Filter?
One of the lesser known qualities of Juirk smoothing is that the Jurik smoothing process is adaptive. "Jurik Volty" (a sort of market volatility ) is what makes Jurik smoothing adaptive. The Jurik Volty calculation can be used as both a standalone indicator and to smooth other indicators that you wish to make adaptive.
What is the Jurik Moving Average?
Have you noticed how moving averages add some lag (delay) to your signals? ... especially when price gaps up or down in a big move, and you are waiting for your moving average to catch up? Wait no more! JMA eliminates this problem forever and gives you the best of both worlds: low lag and smooth lines.
Ideally, you would like a filtered signal to be both smooth and lag-free. Lag causes delays in your trades, and increasing lag in your indicators typically result in lower profits. In other words, late comers get what's left on the table after the feast has already begun.
Adaptive Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE) [Loxx]Adaptive QQE is a fixed and cycle adaptive version of the popular Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE) used by forex traders. This indicator includes varoius types of RSI caculations and adaptive cycle measurements to find tune your signal.
Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE):
The Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE) indicator works like a smoother version of the popular Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator. QQE expands on RSI by adding two volatility based trailing stop lines. These trailing stop lines are composed of a fast and a slow moving Average True Range (ATR).
There are many indicators for many purposes. Some of them are complex and some are comparatively easy to handle. The QQE indicator is a really useful analytical tool and one of the most accurate indicators. It offers numerous strategies for using the buy and sell signals. Essentially, it can help detect trend reversal and enter the trade at the most optimal positions.
Wilders' RSI:
The Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) is a well versed momentum based oscillator which is used to measure the speed (velocity) as well as the change (magnitude) of directional price movements. Essentially RSI , when graphed, provides a visual mean to monitor both the current, as well as historical, strength and weakness of a particular market. The strength or weakness is based on closing prices over the duration of a specified trading period creating a reliable metric of price and momentum changes. Given the popularity of cash settled instruments (stock indexes) and leveraged financial products (the entire field of derivatives); RSI has proven to be a viable indicator of price movements.
RSX RSI:
RSI is a very popular technical indicator, because it takes into consideration market speed, direction and trend uniformity. However, the its widely criticized drawback is its noisy (jittery) appearance. The Jurk RSX retains all the useful features of RSI , but with one important exception: the noise is gone with no added lag.
Rapid RSI:
Rapid RSI Indicator, from Ian Copsey's article in the October 2006 issue of Stocks & Commodities magazine.
RapidRSI resembles Wilder's RSI , but uses a SMA instead of a WilderMA for internal smoothing of price change accumulators.
VHF Adaptive Cycle:
Vertical Horizontal Filter (VHF) was created by Adam White to identify trending and ranging markets. VHF measures the level of trend activity, similar to ADX DI. Vertical Horizontal Filter does not, itself, generate trading signals, but determines whether signals are taken from trend or momentum indicators. Using this trend information, one is then able to derive an average cycle length.
Band-pass Adaptive Cycle:
Even the most casual chart reader will be able to spot times when the market is cycling and other times when longer-term trends are in play. Cycling markets are ideal for swing trading however attempting to “trade the swing” in a trending market can be a recipe for disaster. Similarly, applying trend trading techniques during a cycling market can equally wreak havoc in your account. Cycle or trend modes can readily be identified in hindsight. But it would be useful to have an objective scientific approach to guide you as to the current market mode.
There are a number of tools already available to differentiate between cycle and trend modes. For example, measuring the trend slope over the cycle period to the amplitude of the cyclic swing is one possibility.
We begin by thinking of cycle mode in terms of frequency or its inverse, periodicity. Since the markets are fractal ; daily, weekly, and intraday charts are pretty much indistinguishable when time scales are removed. Thus it is useful to think of the cycle period in terms of its bar count. For example, a 20 bar cycle using daily data corresponds to a cycle period of approximately one month.
When viewed as a waveform, slow-varying price trends constitute the waveform's low frequency components and day-to-day fluctuations (noise) constitute the high frequency components. The objective in cycle mode is to filter out the unwanted components--both low frequency trends and the high frequency noise--and retain only the range of frequencies over the desired swing period. A filter for doing this is called a bandpass filter and the range of frequencies passed is the filter's bandwidth.
Included:
-Toggle on/off bar coloring
-Customize RSI signal using fixed, VHF Adaptive, and Band-pass Adaptive calculations
-Choose from three different RSI types
Visuals:
-Red/Green line is the moving average of RSI
-Thin white line is the fast trend
-Dotted yellow line is the slow trend
Happy trading!
Template Signal IndicatorThis script is an example on how to create a custom indicator that produce start/end long/short deal signals based on configurable conditions from internal and external indicators.
This indicator can be used as an external indicator to other strategies like "Template Trailing Strategy" that will execute the deals and enter the desired positions based on the signals produced by this script.
Combining this script with the aforementioned strategy (or any other compatible) has the advantage that you can backrest the results of your custom deal conditions. Also additional functionality that is provided by the strategy can be utilized (e.g. Take Profit Targets, Trailing Stop Loss etc.).
In this particular example I combined the RSI and Stoch RSI indicators (internal) with the "Trend Explorer" indicator (external) so it produces buy and sell signals based on the logic I defined in the input tab of this indicator. To combine "indicators on indicators" you need Pro+ TV subscription.
The convention I use to communicate the signals is the following (2 -> enter long, 1 -> exit long, -2 -> enter short, -1 ->exit short). However, this convention is also configurable in the consumer/strategy script "Template Trailing Strategy" so make sure that both script "speak the same language" before procced.
Wick Pressure by SiddWolfMultiple Wicks forming at OverSold & OverBought levels create Buying and Selling Pressure. This Script tries to capture the essence of the buy and sell pressure created by those wicks. Wick pressure shows that the trend is Exhausted.
How it works:
This Wick Pressure Indicator checks for three candles forming the wicks in overbought and oversold zones. The zones are set by RSI and can be changed in settings. Those three candles should form a bit long wick and length of the wick is determined by ATR. The ATR multiple can be changed from settings. And then the script draws a box in the area formed by three candle wicks.
Confluence:
This indicator should not be used on its own. You should include it in your existing trading strategy. Any indicator should be rigorously tested before making any real trades.
Settings is the Key:
Settings are key to all of my indicators. Play around with it a bit. Change the ATR multiplier. Read the tooltips to understand what each settings mean. Tooltips are the (i) button in-front of each settings.
FAQs:
Q. Does the indicator Repaint ?
--- No. None of my indicators repaints. What you see now is what's drawn in real time.
Q. Indicator doesn't show anything ?
--- Maybe you've messed up the settings so reset it. or try different coin/stock.
Q. Does this indicator give financial advice?
--- No. Nope. Nein. Não. नहीं.
Conclusion:
This indicator is very basic but if used correctly it can be very powerful. Hit me up if you'd like to see the screener/scanner for this or any of my indicators. If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to comment below. I'd love to connect with you. Thank you.

The Namib FlowThis is an alert/notification system consisting of the building on the following existing indicators:
Hull Suite by InSilico
Follow Line Indicator by Dreadblitz
QQE MOD by Mihkel00
It is not my strategy - it is based on a video I watched.
It will give and alert/notification once the following conditions are aligned:
Bullish Alert
Hull Suite Line Fully Green
Follow Line Indicator Blue
QQE MOD Green
First Bullish Candle after the three indicators hit the conditions as described above.
Bearish Alert
Hull Suite Line Fully Red
Follow Line Indicator Red
QQE MOD Red
First Bearish Candle after the three indicators hit the conditions as described above.
Notes:
This alert system only works on the first three candles (bullish or bearish after the Hull Suite band color change) otherwise there would be too many candles.
The buy is at the close of the candle.
The SL is at the follow line indicator.
The TP is at a RRR of 1:2.
Comments appreciated.

What is the top bar?
-The top bar shows a trend confirmation based on the wolfpack ID indicator.
What are those circles on the second top bar?
-Those are Divergences of an internally calculated PVT oscillator. Red for Regular-Bearish, Green for Regular-Bullish.
What are those circles on the main oscillator?
-These are Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are those circles on the second lower bar?
-Those are Divergences of an internally calculated CCI indicator. Red for Regular-Bearish, Green for Regular-Bullish.
What is the lower bar?
-The lower bar shows a trend confirmation based on the Acceleration Oscillator, in best case it showes how far in the trend the current price action is.
What are those orange or aqua squares?
- These are TSI (true strength indicator) entry signals . They are calculated by the TSI entry signal, the TSI oscillator threshold.
Most settings of the indicator package can be modified to your liking and based on your chosen strategy might have to be modified. Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.

[JL] Cross CandlesI made Stoch candle yesterday, and want to compare other indicators.
So I code this one including 8 indicators on this version:
Stochastic Cross K and D
RSI Cross RSI and an average RSI
Moving Average Cross short and long
MACD Cross MACD and Signal
Stochastic RSI Cross K and D
DMI Cross Plus and minus
Parabolic SAR Cross close and sar
Super Trend Cross direction and 0
I personally like Stochastic, RSI and Stochastic RSI as they are less lagged.
Feel free to post suggestions about other indicators. I am happy to update it.
Swing Dream - PAINT BARS | MA | EMA | DMA | VWAP | TABLE | ADR %- Swing Dream -
Script created for breakout-swing traders, in the style of QullaMaggie * , Dan Zanger, Oliver Kell, and Stockbee.
The following indicators are used by most successful breakout-swing traders such as mentioned above.
(As published) it contains:
Painted Bars, also known as inside/outside candles. Used for candle analysis and to determine breakout pivots & levels. For instance; use it in different timeframes and seek formations (ex, 3-1-2). For further inspiration, study Rob Smith's The Strat .
MA, Simple Moving Averages (Basic levels = 10,20,50,200). Use this indicator to define resistance/support areas as well as the overall long/swing-term trend. In breakout strategies such as EP, Flags, etc this can be used for trailing stops; an example, post-breakout, let the price ride the 20ma before exiting your position.
EMA, Exponential Moving Averages with periods inspired by Qullamaggie (10,20,65). Use this on shorter timeframes (ex, 1h) and for the same principles as MAs.
VWAP, Volume-Weighted Average Price. As for the previous, utilize this as a level indicator to find areas of resistance/support. Good for swing-trading as it implies whenever holders are profitable or not.
DMA, Displaced Moving Average (Horizontal). Personally, I use this a lot. Works very well for trailing stops (post breakout) and "bounce" areas. Choose your own offset and period.
ADR%, Average Daily Range Percentage. Displayed in the table and used to define a symbol's volatility. A very good tool for Qullamaggie-style trading. Personally, I try to find setups with over 6% ADR. Basic definition; low ADR% = Increased chance of a symbol to move slower and in smaller ranges. A higher value equals the opposite.
Table. A table with basic symbol-related information. Could save you plenty of time whenever you scan or search for new swing setups. Looking to add more features here.
Why should you use this script? Well, instead of having tens of different indicators, use this script and combine everything together with EP, Flag, or breakout principles. Suited for every plan, and more efficient in my opinion.
View settings to turn on/off different indicators.
* If you're looking for an introduction and further explanation of how Qullamaggie uses mentioned indicators, I could recommend checking out his website, stream, or participation in "Chat With Traders".
At last, I want to credit: @jkcqld @neolao @TheScrutiniser
This Script will get updated and improved.

PYRAMIDING BTCUSDTPERP1H [ALERTS VERSION]BINANCE:BTCUSDTPERP
Hello
This my upgraded (ALERTs) version of my previous bots, uses diffrent indicators
WARING
THIS STRATEGY WORKS ONLY ON BTCUSDTPERP ON BINANCE 60MIN (like my previous ones) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- it depends on specyfic volume and wick based on binance
Soo, I was tried to make a bot with more trades to make more real results.
Trends are change, and the problem with configuration on bots is that, while we searching the best cofigurations , this was best configuration in the past,
to prepare bot for the futures moves , we have to make as much trades as possible.
This bot is pure definition of pyramiding, uses 2 entries, and when all the conditions are true, then will open a trades
The way it works is simple, bot use 6 difrent indicators to open longs/shorts and for the define trend
This specific configuration works the best at
TP: 1.4%
SL: 9%
This is bot only for lev 1x
Dont try it for bigger leverage, becouse when sl hits, which sometimes happend, the lost will be huge
Why sl is so big?
Bot is programed to replace sl with other entries
for example
close longs and open shorts
normal lose is around 3-5% (while trend is changed), so sl will only destroys results
this bot using 6 difrent indicators:
ADX
RSI
VOLUME
RANGE FILTER
MA 5-10-30
MACD by KivancOzbilgic
ADX - makes a solid view to trend without any scam wick :
Long only on green bars
Shorts only on red bars
That's helps my strategy to define a right trend
there is also a orange option for unidentified trends
RSI - value helps strategy to stop trade in right time
When RSI is overbought strategy don't open new longs
also when RSI is oversold strategy don't open new shorts
Volume - volume is the most important indicator for the strategy,
to avoid open trades on flat chart, new trades are open after a strong volume
wicks
RANGE FILTER- this indicator is for the better view of trends, define trends
MA 5-10-30 - like previous ones this is for better view of trends, and correctly define the trends
MACD by KivancOzbilgic - this indicator is based of MACD RELOADED by Kivanc Ozbilgic
Also like previous ones, indicator should help defined correct trends
Enjoy ;)
Silen's Financials Debt & EquityThis Script shows Debt (red) & Equity (green), as well as Total Equity and Net Income in a preformatted way for a symbol. Total revenue's and Net income's visibility is turned off by default and can be activated in the indicator settings. 🍳
Disclaimer: Any content in this script can be completely replicated by using Tradingview's Build-In Financial Indicators: Total debt, Total equity, Net income and Total revenue. It requires a lot of formatting work to get them to this state though. 👌
However, you are going to need 4 Financial Indicators clogging 🚽 your screen. With this indicator you have them preformatted as an overlay on your chart so you know exactly what's going on with your ticker's financials. 💰
I recommend only using Debt & Equity OR Total Equity & Net Income together. Although displaying all 4 indicators together is possible, it will make your chart quite messy.
This is how the indicator looks like for Total equity and Net Income:
This Script (2) is part of a Series that will contain 3 scripts to help you easily evaluate if a stock is trading in harmony with its fundamentals or not. ☯
Script 1 already exists:
Script 3 will be a Fair Value Indicator. 📣
Script 1 and 2 combined will look like this: 🌄
If you have any questions, let me know! 🙂

Multi Oscillators Price LevelsThis script draws price levels corresponding to the highest price reached in overbought situations, and the lowest price reached in oversold situations, depending on the oscillator and the timeframe the user has configured.
These levels correspond, most of time, to good supports and resistances prices.
Price levels drawings can be based on the following indicators:
Stochastic RSI (default)
Stochastic CCI
RSI
CCI
You can customize this indicator with the following options:
Source: The candle source to use in indicators calculation
Source Indicator: The indicator on which you cant to base your levels
Timeframe: The timeframe on which you want to apply the selected indicator, and calculate levels
Show supports/resistances: enable/disable price levels, depending on there status (overbought - resistances) / (oversold - supports)
Lines width: width of price levels. (set to 10 by default in order to draw "zones")
Supports/Resistances source: Select the candle data you cant to use to draw supports and resistances levels
Extend levels: Select the line extension for price levels
Levels color: Select the desired color for price levels
And of course , all parameters corresponding to the supported indicators (Stoch, RSI, CCI)
Here are a few examples of different configurations:
This script will probably be modified in the future, don't hesitate to suggest any improvement.
Multpile strategies [LUPOWN]///English
This indicator contains many indicators that together can form different strategies, by default there is the Latin trading strategy with the points of the cipher by @Vumanchu indicator that actually these points appear when a lazy bear indicator gives the signal, the white shadow that It is seen by default is the MFI, this adaptation is the same as the one with the indicator cipher by @Vumanchu, if the white shadow is above the 0 point we can search for a buy position, this helping us with the squeeze momentum and the ADX (information in the panel), you can even enter before the buy or sell panel if the green dot appears, this is one of several strategies that can be formed with this indicator.
Other hidden indicators by default are the CCi, Koncorde (adapted thanks to the version of @inversiones por el mundo and modified by @ lkdml), MACD, stochastic, Awesome Oscillator, Elliot Oscillator, which, as I say, combined can be good strategies.
The indicator also shows divergences, both in the RSI and in the Squeeze momentum and in the Awesome Oscillator if it is on the chart, the divergence code is from @madoqa and I adapted it for the different indicators.
The panel shows the status of the chart according to the Trading Latino strategy
You can hide and show the indicators you want through the settings.

Este indicador contiene muchos indicadores que en conjunto pueden formar diversas estrategias, por default esta la estrategia de trading latino con los puntos del indicador cipher by @Vumanchu que en realidad estos puntos aparecen cuando un indicador de lazy bear da la señal, la sombra blanca que se ve por default es el MFI esta adaptación es la misma a la que tiene el indicador cipher by @Vumanchu, si la sombra blanca esta por encima del punto 0 podemos buscar entradas en compra, esto ayudándonos del squeeze momentum y el ADX (información en el panel), incluso se puede entrar antes que el panel nos de compra o venta si el punto verde aparece, esta es una de varias estrategias que se pueden formar con este indicador.
Otros indicadores ocultos por default están el CCi, Koncorde (adaptado gracias a la versión de @inversiones por el mundo y modificado por @ lkdml), MACD, estocastico , Awesome Oscillator, Elliot Oscilator, que como digo combinados se pueden hacer buenas estrategias.
En el indicador también se muestran divergencias, tanto en el RSI como en el Squeeze momentum y en el Awesome Oscillator si es que esta en el grafico, el código de divergencias es de @madoqa yo lo adapte para los diferentes indicadores.
El panel muestra el estatus del grafico según la estrategia de Trading Latino

MACD PlusMoving Average Convergence Divergence – MACD
The MACD is an extremely popular indicator used in technical analysis. It can be used to identify aspects of a security's overall trend. Most notably these aspects are momentum, as well as trend direction and duration. What makes the MACD so informative is that it is actually the combination of two different types of indicators. First, the MACD employs two Moving Averages of varying lengths (which are lagging indicators) to identify trend direction and duration. Then, it takes the difference in values between those two Moving Averages (MACD Line) and an EMA of those Moving Averages (Signal Line) and plots that difference between the two lines as a histogram which oscillates above and below a center Zero Line. The histogram is used as a good indication of a security's momentum.
Added Color Plots to Settings Pane.
Switched MTF Logic to turn ON/OFF automatically w/ TradingView's Built in Feature.
Added Ability to Turn ON/OFF Show MacD & Signal Line.
Added Ability to Turn ON/OFF Show Histogram.
Added Ability to Change MACD Line Colors Based on Trend.
Added Ability to Highlight Price Bars Based on Trend.
Added Alerts to Settings Pane.
Customized Alerts to Show Symbol, TimeFrame, Closing Price, MACD Crosses Up & MACD Crosses Down Signals in Alert.
Alerts are Pre-Set to only Alert on Bar Close.
Added ability to show Dots when MACD Crosses.
Added Ability to Change Plot Widths in Settings Pane.
Added in Alert Feature where Cross Up if above 0 or cross down if below 0 (OFF By Default).
Squeeze Pro
Traditionally, John Carter's version uses 20 period SMAs as the basis lines on both the BB and the KC.
In this version, I've given the freedom to change this and try out different types of moving averages.
The original squeeze indicator had only one Squeeze setting, though this new one has three.
The gray dot Squeeze, call it a "low squeeze" or an "early squeeze" - this is the easiest Squeeze to form based on its settings.
The orange dot Squeeze is the original from the first Squeeze indicator.
And finally, the yellow dot squeeze, call it a "high squeeze" or "power squeeze" - is the most difficult to form and suggests price is under extreme levels of compression.
Colored Directional Movement Index (CDMI) , a custom interpretation of J. Welles Wilder’s Directional Movement Index (DMI), where :
DMI is a collection of three separate indicators ( ADX , +DI , -DI ) combined into one and measures the trend’s strength as well as its direction
CDMI is a custom interpretation of DMI which presents ( ADX , +DI , -DI ) with a color scale - representing the trend’s strength, color density - representing momentum/slope of the trend’s strength, and triangle up/down shapes - representing the trend’s direction. CDMI provides all the information in a single line with colored triangle shapes plotted on the bottom. DMI can provide quality information and even trading signals but it is not an easy indicator to master, whereus CDMI simplifies its usage. The CDMI adds additional insight of verifying/confirming the trend as well as its strength
Label :
Displaying the trend strength and direction
Displaying adx and di+/di- values
Displaying adx's momentum (growing or falling)
Where tooltip label describes "howto read colored dmi line"
Ability to display historical values of DMI readings displayed in the label.
Added "Expert Trend Locator - XTL"
The XTL was developed by Tom Joseph (in his book Applying Technical Analysis ) to identify major trends, similar to Elliott Wave 3 type swings.
Blue bars are bullish and indicate a potential upwards impulse.
Red bars are bearish and indicate a potential downwards impulse.
White bars indicate no trend is detected at the moment.
Added "Williams Vix Fix" signal. The Vix is one of the most reliable indicators in history for finding market bottoms. The Williams Vix Fix is simply a code from Larry Williams creating almost identical results for creating the same ability the Vix has to all assets.
The VIX has always been much better at signaling bottoms than tops. Simple reason is when market falls retail traders panic and increase volatility , and professionals come in and capitalize on the situation. At market tops there is no one panicking... just liquidity drying up.
The FE green triangles are "Filtered Entries"
The AE green triangles are "Aggressive Filtered Entries"
MACandles-LinearRegression-StrategyThis is combination of multiple indicators and strategies. Mainly useful for indexes and to time the entry and exits of indexes. No stoploss used - makes it less desirable for leveraged trades or trading individual stocks.
Let us rewind and look back at some of the indicators/strategies published earlier.
1. Moving Average Candles - this is one of my favourite tool for general trend filtering. Applying supertrend on moving average candles is one of the easiest ways to find reversal in trending market without exiting positions too early. Few scripts published on this basis are:
MA Candles Supertrend
MA Candles Supertrend Strategy
2. VixFix and Linear Regression - this itself is combination of two indicators.
Williams-Vix-Fix-Finds-Market-Bottoms - by @ChrisMoody
Squeeze-Momentum-Indicator - by @LazyBear
I have combined these two indicators to derive VIX-Fix linear regression to find absolute market bottoms. More description here:
VixFixLinReg-Strategy
VixFixLinReg-Indicator
Now, in this strategy, we combine all these together.
Derive moving average candles
Derive momentum of moving average candles
Derive Linear regression on momentum
Optionally, also calculate VIX Fix and Linear regression on VixFix momentum
To find market bottom:
There are two options
1. Use when momentum of MA candles hit bottom (red) and slowly turn up (orange). In aggressiveLong mode, signals are also generated when momentum starts going positive from negative.
2. Use Vix Fix linear regression of MA candles as described in the original script of VixFixLinReg-Strategy
To find market top
Here only Ma candles momentum decreasing is used as signal. If looking for longTrades , exit signal is generated only when momentum is turning negative extreme(orange). Or else, exit signal is generated when momentum has turned neutral.
At this stage, it is very much experimental - use it with caution :)
{Gunzo} Vertical Horizontal Filter (Trading ranges)Vertical Horizontal Filter indicator is a tool that can be used to identify market conditions (ranging or trending). It measures if the price is going vertical (uni-directional) or horizontal (non-directional).
OVERVIEW :
The Vertical Horizontal Filter is a technical analysis indicator created by Adam White in 1991. He described it in the “Issues of Futures” magazine for the first time. The indicator is only composed of one line that measures the level of trend activity.
If the VHF line is increasing, we consider that the trend is getting stronger (up-trend or down-trend). Otherwise, if the VHF line is decreasing, we consider that the trend is weakening (going sideways or even ranging) as the market is getting calmer
CALCULATION :
The level of trend activity is calculated as the ratio between the distance from the highest to the lowest value (on the last N days) and the movement of the closing price.
VHF = ( highest (high) – lowest (low) ) / sum( close – previous close)
SETTINGS :
VHF length : Length of the vertical horizontal filter (28 or 18 recommended)
VHF source : Source of the vertical horizontal filter (close recommended)
VHF smoothing length : Extra smoothing applied on the VHF line to filter noise (1 or 6 or 9 or 14 recommended)
Display ranging market rectangles : Display rectangles on the chart around the area where VHF is decreasing (ranging market)
Display trending market rectangles : Display rectangles on the chart around the area where VHF is increasing (trending market up or down)
Minimum rectangle size : Hide rectangles that are smaller than X candles
Display signal line : Display circles at the bottom of the chart with the raw VHF direction (green if increasing /red if decreasing)
Display VHF tops and bottoms : Display triangles if the VHF line is reaching a new high or new low over the last 100 candles. When consecutive triangles appear, it may be a sign that the current market conditions are ending. Green triangles mean the possible end of the ranging market and red triangles mean the possible end of the trending market.
VISUALIZATIONS :
This indicator has 3 possible visualizations :
Rectangles : the rectangles are drawn on areas where the VHF is decreasing (red) or increasing (green) for a minimum number of consecutive candles. The first candles of an area may not be representative of the market conditions as the VHF line is still in extreme values but going slowly in the opposite direction. The market conditions (ranging or trending) get stronger with the VHF line keeping the same direction.
Signal line : The signal line is the VHF raw data : the red circle is a decreasing VHF line, and the green circle is an increasing VHF line.
Tops and bottoms : The tops and bottoms are signals indicating that the VHF line is reaching extreme values, there is a high probability that the market conditions are going to change after that.
USAGE :
This indicator can be used as a filter for strategies based on other technical analysis indicators.
If you are using trending indicators like moving averages, you should consider using them only when the market is trending. You can use VHF increasing to confirm that the market is not ranging.
If you are using oscillating indicators like stochastic or commodity channel index, you may prefer using them when the market is ranging as trending indicators may not be useful. You can use the VHF decreasing to confirm that the market is ranging.
