Smoother Moving Average w/ DSL [Loxx]Smoother Moving Average w/ DSL is a Smoother Filter indicator with Discontinued Signal Lines to drastically reduce noise and improve signal quality.
What is the Smoother Filter?
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.
What are DSL Discontinued Signal Line?
A lot of indicators are using signal lines in order to determine the trend (or some desired state of the indicator) easier. The idea of the signal line is easy : comparing the value to it's smoothed (slightly lagging) state, the idea of current momentum/state is made.
Discontinued signal line is inheriting that simple signal line idea and it is extending it : instead of having one signal line, more lines depending on the current value of the indicator.
"Signal" line is calculated the following way :
When a certain level is crossed into the desired direction, the EMA of that value is calculated for the desired signal line
When that level is crossed into the opposite direction, the previous "signal" line value is simply "inherited" and it becomes a kind of a level
This way it becomes a combination of signal lines and levels that are trying to combine both the good from both methods.
In simple terms, DSL uses the concept of a signal line and betters it by inheriting the previous signal line's value & makes it a level.

Directional Movement RibbonWhat makes this different from directional movement index?
The aim is to reduce the amount of data analysis necessary before taking action; currently using DMI requires reviewing the DM+ and DM- plots, and ADX as well as review the overall trend of each one. Also there is the final analysis to determine whether a strong trend hasn’t been established at all.
This indicator condenses the information found from the standard DMI into an intuitive colored ribbon that reveals direction and strength at a glance.
How to use it?
Review the ribbon for sentiment based on color, green being bullish and red being bearish, (if using default color scheme). The brightness of the color determines the strength of the sentiment, brightest being strongest. If no color is represented at all then it is due to weakness and/or lack of direction.
Features
All colors customizable
Toggle display of indecision areas
Adjust levels considered strong, weak trends
Which markets is this meant for?
This can be used in any market, though it’s recommended to use with liquid markets where direction and strength can be found often.
What conditions?
Recommend to utilize with key levels and most commonly utilized moving average periods such as 20, 50, 100 or 200.

RSI Momentum Acceleration by TartigradiaPlots the momentum acceleration oscillators from price and RSI, rescaled and with areas above/below highlighted.
Usage: in a nutshell, when the background is yellow, it's bearish (RSI decelerates faster than price), whereas when the background is green, it's bullish (RSI accelerates faster than price). It appears to detect early some reversals that are otherwise difficult to detect.
Note: it supports using any other indicator's output as the second source input, instead of RSI. PineScript does not allow for more than one source to receive input from other indicators, all the others must only use price as an input.
This indicator uses the core routine to calculate Momentum Acceleration Oscillators by DGT:
This indicator is based on the idea of stinkbug : "RSI is a good momentum indicator showing how excited ppl are on a move, this is why divergences on it work so well. I would like to see the change accelerating or slowing on a move up or down.."

Auto Fibonacci Levels + Auto Trend Line generatorAnother indicator for you guys!!!
This indicator consists of the 5 key Fibonacci retracement levels, plotted automatically to user input settings. I also have included an auto support/resistance trend line generator.
What is a Fibonacci retracement?
'Fibonacci retracement is a method of technical analysis for determining support and resistance levels. It is named after the Fibonacci sequence of numbers, whose ratios provide price levels to which markets tend to retrace a portion of a move before a trend continues in the original direction.' - Wikipedia
How to use the Fibonacci retracement?
- The Fibonacci levels are default. These percentiles from price to the average of the high in a sample and low in a sample give you a guideline of where a bottom may be, where a top may be, and where a range is being created.
- Look for the price to reject from 61.8% and 76.4%, and also look for price to bounce from 38.2% and 23.6%. If a lower low/higher high is made, the fib levels will follow and the percentiles within will be recalculated after a 5 candle offset period.
- If you see price trending towards the lower percentiles (38&23) and using the 50% as resistance, look for a break downwards and vice versa.
-This Fibonacci set as all others is subject to fake-out, always use this with another series indicator, or don't use it as a signal for entry at all (unless you have a backdated strategy)
How to use the trend line generator?
-The trend line generator will only plot when a lower low/higher high has taken place within the input amount of candles. It is also offset by a user amount.
-The check box will give the option to have the trend line's plot or not.
- If you see a green/red dot it means that that will be your first coordinate for the trend line, and until the computations are complete it will give you an idea of which direction it will be in (resistance or support)
-When opening this indicator zoom out all the way to connect any trend lines that do not load automatically.
Let me know if you have any questions, suggestions or issues! Thank you everyone!

NNFX Exposure UtilityOVERVIEW
This tool allows the user to manually keep track of how much of their account is currently exposed to each currency, and keep that information handy and organized on the chart as a table.
It is specialized for NNFX traders who are trading all the pairs among the 9 major currency crosses: AUD, CAD, CHF, EUR, GBP, JPY, NZD, SGD, USD.
HOW DO I USE THIS INDICATOR?
Before you take a trade, you should open the indicator settings for this indicator and check off which currencies you are about to go long and short on. Here are 3 trades taken as examples:
If you go long on EUR/USD with 2% risk, your exposure is 2% long on EUR and 2% short on USD.
Then if you go short on GBP/SGD with 2% risk, your exposure is 2% short on GBP and 2% long on SGD.
But if you go long on SGD/JPY with 2% risk, your exposure would now be 4% long on SGD and 2% short on JPY. This is against your rules if you are trading the NNFX way. So this tool allows you to see when you are about to accidentally overexpose yourself to any currency pair.
Net New Highs/Lows (With visible code)Basically the same script than Carusolnsights but without hidding the lines of code...
"This indicator displays the net number of stocks on the Nasdaq Composite making 52-week highs or lows. For instance, if there are 60 new 52-week highs and 20 new 52-week lows, the net number will display 40 net new 52 week highs. This indicator is particularty useful in gauging what the breadth is of the Nasdaq.
Three days of net 52-week highs show a healthy market which is conducive to increasing exposure. This condition is highlighted with a green background.
Three days of net 52-week lows show an unhealthy market which is conducive to reducing exposure. This condition is high|lighted with a red background."
Faytterro EstimatorWhat is Faytterro Estimator?
This indicator is an advanced moving average.
What it does?
This indicator is both a moving average and at the same time, it predicts the future values that the price may take based on the values it has taken before.
How it does it?
takes the weighted average of data of the selected length (reducing the weight from the middle to the ends). then draws a parabola through the last three values, creating a predicted line.
How to use it?
it is simple to use. You can use it both as a regression to review past prices, and to predict the future value of a price. uptrends are in green and downtrends are in red. color change indicates a possible trend change.
NSDT MA High-LowThis may seem like a pretty basic Moving Average indicator but I haven't seen one that changes the calculation point depending if the market is going up or down.
I've added three EMA's (length of 20) on this sample chart to demonstrate the differences. These are not included with the indicator.
Green, EMA calculated on High
Red, EMA calculated on Low
Yellow, EMA calculated on Close (default)
Blue, EMA calculated on HIGH when rising but on LOW when falling. (looks at 3 candles back to gauge direction)
* * * Note you can choose between 5 different Moving Average types
Notice how the Blue line (when going up it's calculated on the High) is catching up to the Green line (which is already calculated on the High)?
Notice how the Blue line (when going down so it's calculated on the Low) is catching up to the Red line (which is already calculated on the Low)?
This gives a faster response in the direction of the market because it switches between calculating on the High or Low based on market direction.
This script is free and open source.
Pivot Average [Misu]█ This Indicator is based on Pivot Points.
It aggregates closed Pivot Points to determine a " Pivot Average " line.
Pivot Points here refer to highs and lows.
█ Usages:
Pivot Average can be used as resistance or breakout area.
It is also very usefull to find battle zones.
It can also be used as a trend indicator: when the price is below, trend is down, when price is above, trend is up.
Mixed with momentum/volatility indicator it is very powerfull.
█ Parameters:
Deviation: Parameter used to calculate pivots.
Depth: Parameter used to calculate pivots.
Length: History Lenght used to determine Pivot Average.
Smoothing MA Lenght: MA lenght used to smooth Pivot Average.
Close Range %: Define price percentage change required to determine close pivots.
Color: Color of the Pivot Average.
Multi TF Trend Indicator
...Mark Douglas in his book Trading in the Zone wrote
The longer the time frame, the more significant the trend, so a trending market on a daily bar chart is more significant than a trending market on a 30-minute bar chart. Therefore, the trend on the daily bar chart would take precedence over the trend on the 30-minute bar chart and would be considered the major trend. To determine the direction of the major trend, look at what is happening on a daily bar chart. If the trend is up on the daily, you are only going to look for a sell-off or retracement down to what your edge defines as support on the 30-minute chart. That's where you will become a buyer. On the other hand, if the trend is down on the daily, you are only going to look for a rally up to what your edge defines as a resistance level to be a seller on the 30-minute chart. Your objective is to determine, in a downtrending market, how far it can rally on an intraday basis and still not violate the symmetry of the longer trend. In an up-trending market, your objective is to determine how far it can sell off on an intraday basis without violating the symmetry of the longer trend. There's usually very little risk associated with these intraday support and resistance points, because you don't have to let the market go very far beyond them to tell you the trade isn't working.
The purpose of this indicator to show both the major and minor trend on the same chart with no need to switch between timeframes
Script includes
timeframe to determine the major trend
price curve, close price is default, but you can pick MA you want
type of coloring, either curve color or the background color
Implementation details
major trend is determined by the slope of the price curve

Constantly Applied Pressure Index (CAP index)BINANCE:ETHUSDT
The CAP index is my own homebrew trend indicator made to help traders see the slightly bigger picture, because we all know that as traders we can tend to hyper-focus in on a few candles and end up making a stupid trade because of it, or is it just me ? On a more serious note this indicator helps you find the short term trend by looking at bullish and bearish candles comparing their sizes, volumes and predominance.
The indicator has many technical settings for you to play around with but on the defaults it will render in a few colors which I will explain. Gray means no trend or that the current trend has died, bright green or red mean that a trend has formed, is playing out or that there is a good change a strong trend is about to form. Obviously green means bullish and red means bearish. Finally darker green and red mean a weak or weakening trend, this serves as a warning if you are about to take a trade in the trend direction.
The way I recommend using the indicator is the same way many trend indicators are used, as a filter to either a different indicator creating trading signals or to your own strategy's signals. I would add an illustration here that I prepared but I cannot because of tradingview's reputation rules
Juirk-Filtered QQE Histogram [Loxx]Juirk-Filtered QQE Histogram is a QQE indicator with 7 different RSI types, Jurik-Filtering with the option of double filtering. 2 types of signals, and Loxx's Expanded Source types. These additions are useful to filter out noise.
What is 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.
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.

Blockchain Fundamentals: 200 Week MA Heatmap [CR]Blockchain Fundamentals: 200 Week MA Heatmap
This is released as a thank you to all my followers who pushed me over the 600 follower mark on twitter. Thanks to all you Kingz and Queenz out there who made it happen. <3
Indicator Overview
In each of its major market cycles, Bitcoin's price historically bottoms out around the 200 week moving average.
This indicator uses a color heatmap based on the % increases of that 200 week moving average. Depending on the rolling cumulative 4 week percent delta of the 200 week moving average, a color is assigned to the price chart. This method clearly highlights the market cycles of bitcoin and can be extremely helpful to use in your forecasts.
How It Can Be Used
The long term Bitcoin investor can monitor the monthly color changes. Historically, when we see orange and red dots assigned to the price chart, this has been a good time to sell Bitcoin as the market overheats. Periods where the price dots are purple and close to the 200 week MA have historically been good times to buy.
Bitcoin Price Prediction Using This Tool
If you are looking to predict the price of Bitcoin or forecast where it may go in the future, the 200WMA heatmap can be a useful tool as it shows on a historical basis whether the current price is overextending (red dots) and may need to cool down. It can also show when Bitcoin price may be good value on a historical basis. This can be when the dots on the chart are purple or blue.
Over more than ten years, $BTC has spent very little time below the 200 week moving average which is also worth noting when thinking about price predictions for Bitcoin or a Bitcoin price forecast.
Notes
1.) If you do not want to view the legend do the following: Indicator options > Style tab > Uncheck "Tables"
2.) I use my custom function to get around the limited historical data for bitcoin. You can check out the explanation of it here:
Autocorrelative Power Oscillator (APO) [SpiritualHealer117]This indicator is very strong in identifying short-term trends, and was made for trading stocks and commodities. When it is green, it indicates an uptrend, and red indicates a downtrend. The transparency of the columns illustrates the strength of the trend, with transparent columns indicating weakness, while solid columns indicate strength.
Basic Explanation of the Indicator
This indicator calculates an asset's Pearson's R coefficient when compared with several different lags of the stock's price. After that, the oscillator checks whether the indicator is in the green or red compared to those correlations, and takes the sum of the correlative periods to predict which direction the market should go based on the relationship of the current price with its past correlations.
TheATR: Aroon Oscillator.Aroon Oscillator (AO).
The Aroon Oscillator, was developed by Tushar Chande, in 1995, to highlight the start of a new trend and to measure trend strength.
I re-branded a bit the whole thing, If you are familiar with how this Oscillator usually is, you are going to notice the differences.
Aroon Oscillator Components.
1 - Aroon Up -> Bullish Directional Component, highlighted in blue.
2 - Aroon Down -> Bearish Directional Component, highlighted in purple.
We also have the Oscillators static thresholds, which are:
- 0 Line.
- 100 Line.
- Exit Signal Line Level.
How to read the Aroon Oscillator.
The AO main goal, is to identify the trend from its first stages, to then come up with how strong that trend is.
So, classic interpretation for the AO would be:
-Aroon Up>Aroon Down = Bull Scenario.
-Aroon Up<Aroon Down = Bear Scenario.
There's also a filter I added, called "Weak Spots Filter". It's purpose goes alongside with how the Aroon present its signals, which a big spike, that usually reaches the top range of the Oscillator, for both Long and Short cases.
So, if the momentum of the market fails to push the Aroon up to a specific level (Exit Signal Line Level), the Filter says market's not strong, and therefore signal is not valid.
The same level (Exit Signal Line Level) allows the user to set Exit Signals for the AO.
I found Exit Signal extremely powerful in this oscillator, as they way they're structured aims to capture the slow down of the trend, which may be followed by the market reversing.
TheATR Documentation regarding TheATR: Aroon Oscillator.
I pretty much already say what I love about the Aroon: It's Exit Signals.
Those are the most valuable part of the Oscillator, by far, in my opinion.
Also, I noticed it gives nice trend recognition when the lenght it's set to
big number (from 150 to 200, for ex).
But. I would never use JUST the Aroon, to decide when to enter and exit the market.
I think it may be an outstanding player if its in a team, where it should play a defensive role.
But that's just my way of using it. I wish you find profitable ways too!
Thanks for reading,
TheATR.
Range Strat - MACD/RSIThis strategy uses a trend based indicator (MACD) for entry/exit signals with a momentum oscillator (RSI) to act as confirmation. Although relying on a trend based indicator this has been created for range bound crypto markets, which have been in a period of chop since June 2022.
Long/Short signals are generated from MACD with the RSI oscillator thresholds suppressing entries at price extremes. This is not a mean reversion RSI strategy! As the indicators are contrary to each other you will need to be generous with the RSI settings in order for signals to trigger.
Strategy is designed for use on the 4h timeframe, it may work well on higher timeframes, but lower time frames will lead to false signals. Use fixed percentage of equity for order size to capture the compounding effect. As a reversal strategy bear in mind that should market trend strongly in either direction stops will be required.
The RSI thresholds can be tailored to provide higher frequency or safer signals. Similarly tweaking MACD settings will provide earlier/more frequent or safer signals. As this is intended to enter near range high / low you should check the visual cues to ensure a ping-pong effect is observed, so that peaks and troughs are captured. Once an observable range is established the strategy works well across a range of crypto markets,
The script is open source, so feel free to amend as you wish. Using a different momentum oscillator may provide better results. I have prior coding experience, but first time using PineScript was last night, so it's not very tidy. I will update this with some additional customisation and TP/SL in the near future.
Usage: Range bound markets
Markets: Cryptocurrency Alts/BTC/ETH
Timeframe: 4h

## 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.

## 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.

## 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.
