Universal Moving Average Convergence DivergenceI changed MACD formula to divergence of (MA26/MA12 - 1).
And its make it more useful.
Cuz:
1) comparability with all other coins with different prices.
2) fix small numbers in low price coines like shiba
3) making a good indicator like RSI to use it for optimization and ML/AI projects as a variable
Most important thing about this indicator is that its Universal
Now you can compare the UMACD of Shiba with Bitcoin without any problem in matamatics space.No need to use virtuality and its important in Optimization problems that we rediuse the problem from a picture to a number(A plot to a list of numbers)
If we don't care about exagrated pumps and dumps, we can say to it Normalized-MACD too. Cuz in normal situations its MAX ≈ 0.1 and MIN ≈ -0.1
Đường Trung bình động Hội tụ/Phân kỳ (MACD)
AII - Average indicator of indicatorsThis Pine Script for TradingView is a technical analysis tool that visualizes the average of several popular indicators in the trading world. The indicators included are the RSI (Relative Strength Index), RVI (Relative Vigor Index), Stochastic RSI, Williams %R, relative MACD (ranging from 0 to 100), and Bollinger Bands price distance from 0 to 100. The script uses the "input" function to customize the length of the indicators and the "plot" function to display the results on the chart. In addition, options are included to turn off certain indicators and change the line colors if the user desires. All indicators can also be activated independently, allowing the user to see only the indicators they want. It is also mentioned that the script will be improved in the future to offer a better user experience. The calculated values are calculated with the default EMA of 14. Overall, this script is an excellent option for those looking for a combined view of several important indicators for making trading decisions.
MACD MTF LinesThe indicator shows the MACD histogram sign (positive or negative) for several timeframes at once. You can see at a glance how the price is trending across higher and lower timeframes.
The code uses recursive calculations for the SMA and EMA to avoid lookahead errors and repainting on higher timeframes.
Note that, for lower timeframes, the line becomes yellow to the left because history is limited and there are not enough bars to calculate.
TARVIS Labs - Bitcoin Macro Bottom/Top SignalsSCRIPT DESCRIPTION
This is a script specifically written to help provide indicators from a macro view. This script is best run on the 1 day interval on Bitstamp's $BTCUSD chart. It helps indicate when to accumulate bitcoin, and when its in a bull run when there are local tops, strong top warnings, and a signal to exit a bull run. This is described further below.
If you don't have interest in trading on the way to the top I suggest turning off the following indicators in the settings of the indicator:
- Opportunity To Buy Back In Indicator
- Local Top Near Bull Run Top Indicator
ACCUMULATION ZONE INDICATOR - LIGHT GREEN
Description
When we look at the history of Bitcoin every bottom has crossed below the 100 week EMA. Once it does its accompanied by hash ribbon cross with miner capitulation. After that is the prime time to accumulate as theres a clearer signal the bottom is in. Specifically, a signal to look for is the 14 day MACD/signal cross and the 14 day MACD continuing to stay above the signal until the price returns above the 100 week EMA. This is prime accumulation territory.
Strategy for Usage
A good strategy to use when accumulating the bottom is dollar-cost averaging over a 30 day period. The accumulation zone can last longer than 30 days but 30 days is a good range of time to DCA.
STRONG BUY IN ACCUMULATION ZONE INDICATOR - DARK GREEN
Description
We can add to the bottoming signal by looking for post-downtrend reversals inside the bottoming signal. We do this by using a 9/19 daily cross.
Strategy for Usage
These post-downtrend reversals can potentially provide better targeted days for accumulation than the broader bottoming signal and can be used to add more on that day than on an average day for the dollar cost average strategy. Say for example, use 1/3 of funds on these days rather than 1/30th.
OPPORTUNITY TO BUY BACK IN INDICATOR - BLUE
Description
When the 1d 18 EMA > 1d 63 EMA and the 12/52 1d crosses. These together provide good buy opportunities to buy bitcoin.
Strategy for Usage
If you happen to find yourself out of the market from your own TA or a trade, this signal can provide a buy opportunity to reenter the market if you're out of it.
BULL RUN LOCAL TOP INDICATOR - ORANGE
Description
We will similarly use the 100 week EMA to determine trend reversal into a bull run. When we see the 100 week EMA uptrending, we can begin to look for local tops using the 9/19 daily MACD/signal bearish cross along with the 12 EMA having a negative slope, which could be the beginning signal for a local top.
Strategy for Usage
This is a rather light indicator, but can be used in tandem with your own technical analysis to determine if you want to reenter after you exit from its signal.
LOCAL TOP NEAR BULL RUN TOP INDICATOR - RED
Description
When the 100 week EMA is in an uptrend we can look for significant loss of momentum in order to determine if a local top is in near a bull run top. Similar to the Bull Run Local Top Indicator, this strategy uses a MACD/signal cross but instead uses the 30/65 day EMAs.
Strategy for Usage
Ideally the right strategy to use here is to exit the market when this indicator starts. When the indicator ends if the "End of Bull Run Indicator" is not showing on the chart you can buy back into the market.
TOP IS LIKELY IN INDICATOR
Description
When the 100 week EMA is in a very strong uptrend and the 9/19 weekly MACD/signal bearish cross occurs, and the 63 EMA begins to downtrend.
Strategy for Usage
This signal typically accompanies the "Local Top Near Bull Run Top Indicator" therefore if you're following the strategy you would likely already be out of the market, but if you're not and this signal fires its a strong signal the top is in and we're likely going to start seeing a strong retrace. This is typically right before we see the "End of Bull Run Indicator". There is only one occurrence where it wasn't followed by a large drop & the "End of Bull Run Indicator" and that was in the 2017 bull run where there were many strong retracements post local top. The likelihood we see that again is low, but if it were to happen you can buy back into the market when the "Top is Likely In Indicator" and the "Local Top Near Bull Run Top Indicator" are not firing.
TOP IS LIKELY IN INDICATOR
Description
When the 100 week EMA is in a strong uptrend and the 9/19 weekly MACD/signal bearish cross occurs, and the 63 EMA begins to downtrend.
Strategy for Usage
This signal typically accompanies the "Local Top Near Bull Run Top Indicator" therefore if you're following the strategy you would likely already be out of the market, but if you're not and this signal fires its a strong signal the top is in and we're likely going to start seeing a strong retrace. This is typically right before we see the "End of Bull Run Indicator". There is only one occurrence where it wasn't followed by a large drop & the "End of Bull Run Indicator" and that was in the 2017 bull run where there were many strong retracements post local top. The likelihood we see that again is low, but if it were to happen you can buy back into the market when the "Top is Likely In Indicator" and the "Local Top Near Bull Run Top Indicator" are not firing.
END OF BULL RUN INDICATOR
Description
When the 100 week EMA is in an uptrend and the 1d 18 EMA crosses the 1d 63 EMA.
Strategy for Usage
When the 100 week EMA is a strong uptrend and the 18/63 cross occurs the top is very likely in. It has occurred in every bull run top leading to the bear market.
Price Cross ━ [whvntr]This oscillator is an attractive way to view hidden price divergence... The formula originated from the Lark, but I have cleanly displayed this information. When the two moving averages (ema) cross with a simple moving average, you find the hidden price divergence. What kind of market should you use this in? It works well when a trend is already established.
Disclaimer: This indicator does not constitute investment advice. Trade at your own
risk with this method of identifying hidden price divergence.
Volume Cross ━ (For Volume Crop) [whvntr]This fulfills a request from user: iTibu to make an oscillator to go along with one of my indicators named: " Volume Crop ━ Hidden Volume Divergence ". It essentially does the same thing, without the Midline Tool , so you can better understand where the crosses are happening. Again, the hidden MACD Divergence circles formula originated from TheLark. I converted these values to volume instead of price.
Disclaimer: using this indicator, or any indicator anywhere, involves risk when trading and isn't a guarantee of 100% accurate results.
RedK K-MACD : a MACD with some more musclesMoving Averages are probably the most commonly used analysis tools, and MACD is possibly the first charting indicator a trader gets to learn about.
MACD Basic concept
----------------------------
Without repeating all the tons of documentation about what MACD does, let's quickly re-visit the MACD concept from a 10-mile altitude (note we're keen on simplifying here rather than being technically accurate - so please forgive the use of any "common lingos")
- MACD goal is to represent the distance between 2 Moving Averages (MAs) - one fast and one slow, relatively - as an unrestricted zero-based oscillator.
- The value of the main MACD line is the distance, or the displacement between the 2 MA's
- usually a signal line is used (which is another MA of that distance value) to enable better visualization of the change (and rate of change, since this is all depicted on a time axis) of that displacement - this represents price momentum (price movement in the recent period versus movements for a relatively longer period).
- the difference between the main MACD line and its signal is then represented as a histogram above and below the zero line. in this case, that histogram is really redundant, since it shows a value that is already represented visually by the main line and its signal line.
How K-MACD is different
---------------------------------
K-MACD takes that simple concept of the classic MACD and expands around it - the idea is to use the same simple approach to representing price momentum while bringing in more insight to price moves in the short, medium and long terms, ability to represent more than 2 MA's and to enable better identification of tradeable patterns (like Volatility Contraction and others) - while still keeping things simple and visually clean.
K-MACD is an indicator that allows us to view how price moves against 3 moving averages: a fast / slow pair, and a "market" Filter or Baseline (very long) that will be used as a flag for Bear/Bull market mode. Many traders and trading literature use the 200 day (40 week) SMA as that key filter
so in total, there are 4 MA lines in K-MACD (excluding the "orange" signal line):
* Price Proxy: Which is a very fast moving average that will represent the price itself - let's use a WMA(3) or something close to that here - there will be a signal line to enable better visualization of this similar to a classic MACD - that's the orange line
* Fast & Slow MA's : Use whatever represents the "medium term" momentum for your trading - Some traders use 20 and 50, others use 10 and 20 .. if on your price chart, you keep using a pair of MA's for this, use the same settings in K-MACD - these will be represented by the 3-color Momentum Bars that fluctuate above and below the baseline
* Filter/Baseline MA: Should be your long (Bullish/Bearish Mode) MA. so 100 or 200 or any other value you consider your market to be bearish below and bullish above. on K-MACD this is actually the blue zero line - everything else is "relative" to it
Review the sample chart which explains various elements and the "price chart" setup that K-MACD represents. With K-MACD you can clean up your chart from those various Moving Averages - or use a different set than the ones you already have K-MACD represent - or other indicators (like ATR channels..etc)
Other "muscles" in the K-MACD
---------------------------------------------
- Relative vs Classic Calculation Mode
A key issue with the classic MACD is that the displacement between the 2 moving averages is represented as "absolute or direct" values - as the price of the underlying increases with time, you can't really use these values to make useful comparison between the past and now (see below example) - also you can't use them to compare 2 different instruments.
- The "Relative" calculation option in K-MACD addresses that issue by relating all "distances" to the Baseline MA as percentage (above or below) - you can see this clear when you look at the above chart the far left versus the far right and compare K-MACD with the classic MACD - the Classic option is still available
- More MA "type" options for all MA lines: choose between SMA, EMA, WMA, and RSS_WMA (which i use a lot in my trading and is my default for the Price Proxy)
- More Alerts: a total or 9 alerts (in 3 groups) are available with K-MACD (Momentum above or below baseline, Price Proxy crossing signal line, and Price Proxy crossing baseline)
- New 52 week High / Low markers: These will show as Green/red circles on the zero line in K-MACD. this will only work for 1D timeframe and above, i'm just using a simple approach and would like to keep it that way.
- i know i added some more features not covered above :) -- if you have questions about any of the settings, feel free to ask below
Closing thoughts
-------------------------
K-MACD is a combination of couple of indicators i published in the past (xMACD and Mo_Bars) - so you can go back and read about them if needed - I then added improvements to accommodate ideas from swing trading literature and common practices that i plan to focus on in future. So K-MACD is really part of my own trading setup.
I assume here that most traders are familiar with what a MACD is - so kept this post short - if you thing we should expand more about the concepts covered here let me know in the comments - i can make some separate posts with examples and more details.
I hope many fellow traders find this work useful - and feel free let me know in comments below if you do.
Volume Crop ━ Hidden Volume Divergence [whvntr] Volume Divergence
• Formula originated from: "Hidden Price Divergence" (circles) by TheLark. I did two things to harness its
effectiveness:
• Firstly, I developed a unique way to filter out the divergence signals that were appearing on both sides of the
midline. This filter will be known as the "Midline Tool" . It filters out a lot of the false signals commonly
associated with oscillators.
• Then, I modified the default format from Price to Volume.
• The midline formula "Midline Tool" was developed by me . It adjusts in the thousands since it's volume.
Let me know in the comments if you would rater have a smaller step value than 10,000. How does it work?
Crossover then Crossunder, the arrows only appear during the first sign of hidden volume divergence once
crossing the midline. Normally, these signs appear on both side of the midline both bearish and bullish no
matter if it's on an oversold or overbought side of the spectrum... Also, let
me know in the comments if you would like for me to release an oscillator version of this
indicator for co-witnessing.
Features:
• Volume divergence
• Midline Tool©
• Disclaimer: This indicator does not constitute investment advice. Trade at your own risk with the investments
you can afford to lose because all financial investments have risks and this is not a
guarantee that the volume divergence will be 100% all the time.
NSDT Double MA ShadingThis script is an interesting take on Convergence and Divergence of Moving Averages. With the built-in MACD Indicator, you cannot make these adjustments to the settings.
DESCRIPTION
The top Moving Average is calculated on the High of the candle.
The bottom Move Average is calculated on the Low of the candle.
If the two are moving apart (Divergence), the shaded area between them turns Green.
If the two are moving together (Convergence), the shaded area between them turns Red.
This may help identify when a trend is becoming stronger or weaker, based on the shaded area and Moving Average direction.
POSSIBLE USAGE
For example:
If the MA's are pointing downward and the shaded area is Green - it means that average distance between the candle High and Low is getting wider, which may indicate a stronger downward movement. Then, when the shaded area turns Red, signaling the average distance between the candle High and Low are getting narrower, this may indicate that the downward movement is weakening, and may be the end of that downward trend.
SETTINGS
You can choose from EMA, SMA, WMA, RMA, HMA, TMA, and VWMA.
Although you can choose the MA Source, it is highly recommended to keep one source on the High of the candle and the other on the Low of the candle, for measure Convergence and Divergence.
All indicator settings are editable.
It can be used on Multi Timeframes (MTF).
This script is free and open source.
Stochastic Moving Average Convergence Divergence (SMACD)This is my attempt at making a Stochastic MACD indicator. To get this to work I have introduced a DC offset to the MACD histogram output. I figured that if theirs a Stochastic RSI their might as well be a Stochastic everything else! lmao enjoy. Honestly, from what I can tell it's even faster than Stochastic Smooth RSI.
The Stochastic Oscillator (STOCH) is a range bound momentum oscillator. The Stochastic indicator is designed to display the location of the close compared to the high/low range over a user defined number of periods. Typically, the Stochastic Oscillator is used for three things; Identifying overbought and oversold levels, spotting divergences and also identifying bull and bear set ups or signals
MACD is an extremely popular indicator used in technical analysis. MACD 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 MACD so informative is that it is actually the combination of two different types of indicators. First, MACD employs two Moving Averages of varying lengths (which are lagging indicators) to identify trend direction and duration. Then, MACD 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
MACD + EMA System with AlertsSo I created the MACD Cross Strategy but not working alone by itself. I added EMA (Exponential Moving Average) filter to improve its winning rate so the MACD Signal only appears when in the same trend direction as Moving Average.
The Main Rules for Long Signal are:
- MACD Main Line Crossover the MACD Signal Line.
- The crossover happens below the MACD center line (0) so the momentum is strong.
- Price above the EMA 200 so it means the market is in a strong uptrend.
The Main Rules for Short Signal are :
- MACD Main Line Crossunder the MACD Signal Line.
- The crossover happens above the MACD center line (0) so the momentum is strong.
- Price below the EMA 200 so it means the market is in a strong downtrend.
The signal crossover & signal alert only generate as per the following rules above.
Limited MACDwhat is "Limited MACD"?
it is macd but it has some useful additional features.
what it does?
it takes limited values ??just like rsi. The highest value it can take is 100 and the lowest value is -100. this way it gets the same highs and lows for different symbols and time slots. which means we can set overbought and oversold values ??with it. he also paints candles according to their values. The closer the price is to the oversold values, the more red, and the closer to the overbought values, the greener.
how it does it?
macd values ??are limited by dividing by extreme values. The macd value is used as the variable for the color.rgb function, this is used to get a different color for each macd value.
how to use it?
The variables in the settings section are the same as standard macd.
Use the colors to identify overbought and oversold zones and to predict possible price reversal points. also the indicator will mark possible turning points. other than that, its use is similar to standard macd and its limits are up to your imagination.

Rolling MACDThis indicator displays a Rolling Moving Average Convergence Divergence . Contrary to MACD indicators which use a fix time segment, RMACD calculates using a moving window defined by a time period (not a simple number of bars), so it shows better results.
This indicator is inspired by and use the Close & Inventory Bar Retracement Price Line to create an MACD in different timeframes.
█ CONCEPTS
If you are not already familiar with MACD, so look at Help Center will get you started www.tradingview.com
The typical MACD, short for moving average convergence/divergence, is a trading indicator used in technical analysis of stock prices, created by Gerald Appel in the late 1970s. It is designed to reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a stock's price.
The MACD indicator(or "oscillator") is a collection of three time series calculated from historical price data, most often the closing price. These three series are: the MACD series proper, the "signal" or "average" series, and the "divergence" series which is the difference between the two. The MACD series is the difference between a "fast" (short period) exponential moving average (EMA), and a "slow" (longer period) EMA of the price series. The average series is an EMA of the MACD series itself.
Because RMACD uses a moving window, it does not exhibit the jumpiness of MACD plots. You can see the more jagged MACD on the chart above. I think both can be useful to traders; up to you to decide which flavor works for you.
█ HOW TO USE IT
Load the indicator on an active chart (see the Help Center if you don't know how).
Time period
By default, the script uses an auto-stepping mechanism to adjust the time period of its moving window to the chart's timeframe. The following table shows chart timeframes and the corresponding time period used by the script. When the chart's timeframe is less than or equal to the timeframe in the first column, the second column's time period is used to calculate RMACD:
Chart Time
timeframe period
1min 🠆 1H
5min 🠆 4H
1H 🠆 1D
4H 🠆 3D
12H 🠆 1W
1D 🠆 1M
1W 🠆 3M
You can use the script's inputs to specify a fixed time period, which you can express in any combination of days, hours and minutes.
By default, the time period currently used is displayed in the lower-right corner of the chart. The script's inputs allow you to hide the display or change its size and location.
Minimum Window Size
This input field determines the minimum number of values to keep in the moving window, even if these values are outside the prescribed time period. This mitigates situations where a large time gap between two bars would cause the time window to be empty, which can occur in non-24x7 markets where large time gaps may separate contiguous chart bars, namely across holidays or trading sessions. For example, if you were using a 1D time period and there is a two-day gap between two bars, then no chart bars would fit in the moving window after the gap. The default value is 10 bars.
//
This indicator should make trading easier and improve analysis. Nothing is worse than indicators that give confusingly different signals.
I hope you enjoy my new ideas
best regards

SUPER MACDthis indicator serves to differentiate the classic source of MACD and add the: DYNAMIC MACD and DYNAMIC BAND
with these inputs you can modify the inputs of the different Bar's, you can choose between:
Candles = classic Candles
Heikin Hashi
Kagi
Line break
Pointfigure
Renko
To use the Dynamic Macd and Band just check the box:
Use Dynamic Rsi??? = this input will change the Rsi in the Dynamic Rsi
Use Dynamic Band??? = this input will change the Bands to the Dynamic Band
Selecting the input: "Use Different Source ???" you can use a source with multiple elements of your choice:
2 = (Source 1 + Source 2) / 2
3 = (Source 1 + Source 2 + Source 3) / 3
4 = (Source 1 + Source 2 + Source 3 + Source 4) / 4
5 = (Source 1 + Source 2 + Source 3 + Source 4 + Source 5) / 5
Percentile Rank of Moving Average Convergence DivergenceThis simple indicator provides you three useful information of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator:
The percentile rank of the current value of the MACD line, displayed by the bright blue line.
The percentile rank of the current value of the Signal line, displayed by the dark blue line.
The percentile rank of the current value of the Histogram line, displayed by the olive histogram.
This indicator can be useful to identify the strength of trend. This indicator makes the assumption that market tends to revert into the opposite direction. If the market has been trending a lot, it should consolidate for a while later. If the market has been consolidating for a long time, it would begin trending real soon.
When we see a low percentile rank, no matter which line it is, this tells that the market hasn't been moving much, or there is little momentum. If the percentile rank stays below the median or even below the first quartile for a long time, this could suggest that the market is ready for the next trend since it has stored quite some energy.
When we see a high percentile rank, no matter which line it is, this tells that the market has been trending a lot, or there is much momentum. If the percentile rank stays above the median or even above the third quartile for a long time, it is probable that the market has used up much of its energy and is going to take a rest (consolidate).
Divergence Cheat Sheet'Divergence Cheat Sheet' helps in understanding what to look for when identifying divergences between price and an indicator. The strength of a divergence can be strong, medium, or weak. Divergences are always most effective when references prior peaks and on higher time frames. The most common indicators to identify divergences with are the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Moving average convergence divergence (MACD).
Regular Bull Divergence: Indicates underlying strength. Bears are exhausted. Warning of a possible trend direction change from a downtrend to an uptrend.
Hidden Bull Divergence: Indicates underlying strength. Good entry or re-entry. This occurs during retracements in an uptrend. Nice to see during the price retest of previous lows. “Buy the dips."
Regular Bear Divergence: Indicates underlying weakness. The bulls are exhausted. Warning of a possible trend direction change from an uptrend to a downtrend.
Hidden Bear Divergence: Indicates underlying weakness. Found during retracements in a downtrend. Nice to see during price retests of previous highs. “Sell the rallies.”
Divergences can have different strengths.
Strong Bull Divergence
Price: Lower Low
Indicator: Higher Low
Medium Bull Divergence
Price: Equal Low
Indicator: Higher Low
Weak Bull Divergence

MACD strategy + Trailstop indicatorWelcome traveler !
Here is my first indicator I made after 3 days of hardlearning pine code (beginner in coding).
I hope it will please you, if you have any suggestion to enhance this indicator, do not hesitate to give me your thoughts in the comments section or by Private message on trading View !
How does it works ?
It's a simple MACD strategy as describe here :
Uses of EMA 200 as a trend confirmer,
For sells :
When above Zero line (MACD) and under EMA200, we go on sell (background color is red)
For buys:
When under Zero line (MACD) and above EMA 200, we go on Buy (back ground color is green)
FILTERS !
I haded one filter to reduce noise on the indicator :
Signals aren't taken if one of the 14 last candles closed on the other side of the EMA 14.
What are the green and red lines ?
The green line is equivalent of a potential stop loss as a buyer side, same for the red one on seller side !
To make the space with the price bigger, please use "ATR multiplier" in the input options of the indicator while on your chart !
Is it timeframe specific ?
Hell no it is not timeframe specific ! You can try to use it on every timeframe !
As usual, I like to remind you that the best way to test an indicator is to go backtest it or to paper trade before using it on real market conditions !
If you find an idea of filter for a specific timeframe, do not hesitate to contact me ! I'll try to do my best to enhance this indicator as the time goes !
Is there repainting ?
There is no repainting on confirmation !
There's only a movement that I don't know how to ignore on the current open candle for the trail stop indicator I built, it should not be a problem if you place alerts to automatise your trading on the close of the candle, and not the high or low !
If you know how to resolve this problem with my code, I would be glad to get your tips to enhance the script ! :)
Example of the indicator in market (backtest, as said, no repaint on confirmation) :
Moving Average Convergence Divergence On Alter OBVOBV:
The OBV is perfect indicator to understand the strength of the particular stock. As the strength increase, the trend of the stock goes high along with price. But, the OBV is considered only with close of previous close which is to make sure the double confirmation on the price to accumulate the volume.
Altered OBV:
So, here is the altered OBV, which basically consider the close of previous close and also buying interested of the day when close is higher than open.
MACD:
I always admire the magic of MACD with pre-defined timeframe. Now, this MACD applied on top of altered OBV to signal us the moving of the ticker strength.
I hope the another MACDAltOBV would help on your swing trading strategy.
Happy Investing.
Adaptive Two-Pole Super Smoother Entropy MACD [Loxx]Adaptive Two-Pole Super Smoother Entropy (Math) MACD is an Ehlers Two-Pole Super Smoother that is transformed into an MACD oscillator using entropy mathematics. Signals are generated using Discontinued Signal Lines.
What is Ehlers; Two-Pole Super Smoother?
From "Cycle Analytics for Traders Advanced Technical Trading Concepts" by John F. Ehlers
A SuperSmoother filter is used anytime a moving average of any type would otherwise be used, with the result that the SuperSmoother filter output would have substantially less lag for an equivalent amount of smoothing produced by the moving average. For example, a five-bar SMA has a cutoff period of approximately 10 bars and has two bars of lag. A SuperSmoother filter with a cutoff period of 10 bars has a lag a half bar larger than the two-pole modified Butterworth filter.Therefore, such a SuperSmoother filter has a maximum lag of approximately 1.5 bars and even less lag into the attenuation band of the filter. The differential in lag between moving average and SuperSmoother filter outputs becomes even larger when the cutoff periods are larger.
Market data contain noise, and removal of noise is the reason for using smoothing filters. In fact, market data contain several kinds of noise. I’ll group one kind of noise as systemic, caused by the random events of trades being exercised. A second kind of noise is aliasing noise, caused by the use of sampled data. Aliasing noise is the dominant term in the data for shorter cycle periods.
It is easy to think of market data as being a continuous waveform, but it is not. Using the closing price as representative for that bar constitutes one sample point. It doesn’t matter if you are using an average of the high and low instead of the close, you are still getting one sample per bar. Since sampled data is being used, there are some dSP aspects that must be considered. For example, the shortest analysis period that is possible (without aliasing)2 is a two-bar cycle.This is called the Nyquist frequency, 0.5 cycles per sample.A perfect two-bar sine wave cycle sampled at the peaks becomes a square wave due to sampling. However, sampling at the cycle peaks can- not be guaranteed, and the interference between the sampling frequency and the data frequency creates the aliasing noise.The noise is reduced as the data period is longer. For example, a four-bar cycle means there are four samples per cycle. Because there are more samples, the sampled data are a better replica of the sine wave component. The replica is better yet for an eight-bar data component.The improved fidelity of the sampled data means the aliasing noise is reduced at longer and longer cycle periods.The rate of reduction is 6 dB per octave. My experience is that the systemic noise rarely is more than 10 dB below the level of cyclic information, so that we create two conditions for effective smoothing of aliasing noise:
1. It is difficult to use cycle periods shorter that two octaves below the Nyquist frequency.That is, an eight-bar cycle component has a quantization noise level 12 dB below the noise level at the Nyquist frequency. longer cycle components therefore have a systemic noise level that exceeds the aliasing noise level.
2. A smoothing filter should have sufficient selectivity to reduce aliasing noise below the systemic noise level. Since aliasing noise increases at the rate of 6 dB per octave above a selected filter cutoff frequency and since the SuperSmoother attenuation rate is 12 dB per octave, the Super- Smoother filter is an effective tool to virtually eliminate aliasing noise in the output signal.
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.

MACDBB HistoXThis is a custom modified MACD where some parameters have been customized and Bollinger Band added to the MACD . When the MACD is running above its upper Bollinger Band , it will be depicted as lime, and vice versa red.
Then the second set of histograms is am idea of mine where the opposing parameters of MACD signals are deducted off each other to reveal the underlying "momentum" of the MACD .
Hope that these tweaks of a ol'trusty indicator it works for those who are interested! Enjoy!
MACD x SuperTrend with trailing stoplossThis trading strategy is based on MACD crossover and crossunder. It uses the supertrend to identify the trend it is trading on and takes trades accordingly. You can use the built in risk to reward ratio parameter through the settings of the indicator for your desired R/R
My goal in creating this indicator was to learn about risk management. This indicator will put up a stop-loss and take profit target according to the entry point it shows.
This indicator showed me the best results on BTC at 5min price chart. I'm new to trading so, do your own due diligence
TARVIS Labs - Alts Macro Bottom/Top SignalsSCRIPT DESCRIPTION
PLEASE READ THROUGH THIS CAREFULLY.
This is a script specifically written to help provide indicators from a macro view for ALTS. This script needs to be run on the 1 day. It helps indicate when to accumulate alts, and when its in a bull run when this a bull run top beginning to form with warnings, and a indicator that a top is in. This is described further below.
NOTE - in order to accomodate most alts the script had to be broad enough in its indicators to cover many different scenarios. If you are trading a smaller altcoin I suggest taking a more conservative approach to accumulation.
FAQs:
1. Why is there no accumulation zone showing up before an uptrend?
This could be because the trend has been so strong for this coin that there hasn't been a strong enough signal to accumulate or this could be that the chart doesnt have enough historical data (needs over 2 years) for the indicators to flash green.
2. Why is there no tops shown for a chart Im looking at?
This is either because there isn't enough historical data (needs over 2 years) for the indicators to build or because the altcoin didnt perform as well as the rest of the market. The altcoin has to perform as well as the market over the length of the bull run in order for the signals to show. Typically an altcoin that shows sharp increases and sharp drops shortly after will not have signals show up.
3. The "Potential End of Bull Run Top Indicator" showed up but we weren't near the top yet, why is that?
The alts indicator has to work across many altcoins, and their trends are not all the same. This can lead to the indicator showing but not necessarily being the exact top. The data from the alts macro bottom/top signals should be paired with the "TARVIS Labs bitcoin macro bottom/top signals" indicator for BTC. The reasoning is because if the top is not showing that its in for Bitcoin its likely that the altcoin's top is also not in. You should use the two in tandem to know if the bull run top is very likely in.
ACCUMULATION ZONE INDICATOR - LIGHT GREEN
Description
When we look at the general crypto landscape, the 200d & 300d EMAs are extremely useful. We can use their cross and momentum in order to determine a bottom forming. If the price has fallen over 40% below the 200 day EMA and the 200 day EMA has crossed below the 300d EMA, its a downtrend with a steep fall, which could indicate a good time to accumulate. When we see the 200 day EMA's slope drop drastically (over 5% w/w) it is also a good signal to accumulate.
Strategy for Usage
For alts, the strategy can vary drastically. You need to take into account:
1. the market cap of the altcoin, is it a smaller market cap altcoin or a larger one?
2. historical trend, does it typically trend strongly with a smaller accumulation zone?
Once you've taken these into account you can form a strategy. For example, if the altcoin has had smaller accumulation zones historically you'll want to take advantage of the accumulation zones when they pop up and be more aggressive (say a 30 day accumulation). If the altcoin has historically had longer accumulation zones then you'll want to be more conservative with your strategy and potentially have a 100 day (or even longer) accumulation period. If the altcoin is a smaller market cap alt, you will want to also take that into account. You'll want to likely be more conservative,
STRONG BUY IN ACCUMULATION ZONE INDICATOR - DARK GREEN
Description
We can add to the bottoming signal by looking for strong downtrends inside the bottoming signal. We do this by seeing when the 36 day EMA has a slope decreasing by 2% day/day.
Strategy for Usage
These strong downtrend days can be used to add more to our accumulation strategy. We can add more on these days (ex. double what you were planning to on a typical accumulation day).
LOCAL TOP NEAR BULL RUN TOP INDICATOR - RED
Description
When the 100 week EMA is in a strong uptrend (4% increase w/w) we can look for significant loss of momentum in order to determine if a local top is in near a bull run top. This strategy uses a MACD with 9/36/9 config for the daily chart. We look for the signals momentum loss, when the slope becomes negative.
Strategy for Usage
Ideally the right strategy to use here is to exit the market when this indicator starts. When the indicator ends if the "Potential End of Bull Run Top Indicator" is not showing on the chart you can buy back into the market.
POTENTIAL END OF BULL RUN TOP INDICATOR - DARK RED
Description
When the 100 week EMA is in a strong uptrend (3% increase w/w), and a MACD config of 108/234/9 has a negative signal slope signifying a very large momentum loss, but the 1d 18 EMA is still above the 1d 63 EMA we show this signal.
Strategy for Usage
This is a strong indicator that the top is in, and it potentially being the bull run top. Because alts can vary strongly in their charts, this should be a strong warning but not necessarily a certainty that the bull run is over.
Gaussian Filter MACD [Loxx]Gaussian Filter MACD is a MACD that uses an 1-4 Pole Ehlers Gaussian Filter for its calculations. Compare this with Ehlers Fisher Transform.
What is Ehlers Gaussian filter?
This filter can be used for smoothing. It rejects high frequencies (fast movements) better than an EMA and has lower lag. published by John F. Ehlers in "Rocket Science For Traders". First implemented in Wealth-Lab by Dr René Koch.
A Gaussian filter is one whose transfer response is described by the familiar Gaussian bell-shaped curve. In the case of low-pass filters, only the upper half of the curve describes the filter. The use of gaussian filters is a move toward achieving the dual goal of reducing lag and reducing the lag of high-frequency components relative to the lag of lower-frequency components.
A gaussian filter with...
one pole is equivalent to an EMA filter.
two poles is equivalent to EMA ( EMA ())
three poles is equivalent to EMA ( EMA ( EMA ()))
and so on...
For an equivalent number of poles the lag of a Gaussian is about half the lag of a Butterworth filters: Lag = N * P / (2 * ¶2), where,
N is the number of poles, and
P is the critical period
Special initialization of filter stages ensures proper working in scans with as few bars as possible.
From Ehlers Book: "The first objective of using smoothers is to eliminate or reduce the undesired high-frequency components in the eprice data. Therefore these smoothers are called low-pass filters, and they all work by some form of averaging. Butterworth low-pass filtters can do this job, but nothing comes for free. A higher degree of filtering is necessarily accompanied by a larger amount of lag. We have come to see that is a fact of life."

Wolfpack Divergences [multigrain]█ OVERVIEW
A fast and improved divergence finding algorithm that aims to be better than the built-in TradingView divergence algorithm.
█ CONCEPTS
Wolfpack
Wolfpack is an oscillator made popular by darrellfischer1 all the way back in 2017. Since then the Wolfpack oscillator has been utilized by a number of notable strategy/indicator creators. At some point it was realized that the oscillator was simply the Moving Average Crossover Divergence oscillator with the fast and slow length of 3 and 8, respectively. The true significance and reasoning behind these lengths are unknown, however one may surmise that they are chosen due to their relevance as Fibonacci numbers.
Divergences
Divergence is when the price of an asset is moving in the opposite direction of a technical indicator, such as an oscillator, or is moving contrary to other data. Divergence warns that the current price trend may be weakening, and in some cases may lead to the price changing direction.
█ USAGE
Wolfpack
Similar to many other oscillators, when the Wolfpack oscillator reports a value above the zero-line, this indicates a bullish trend in the price. Subsequently, a value below the zero-line indicate a bearish trend in the price.
Divergences
Divergence in technical analysis may signal a major positive or negative price move. A positive divergence occurs when the price of an asset makes a new low while an indicator, such as money flow, starts to climb. Conversely, a negative divergence is when the price makes a new high but the indicator being analyzed makes a lower high.
