Simple Moving Average (SMA)## Overview and Purpose
The Simple Moving Average (SMA) is one of the most fundamental and widely used technical indicators in financial analysis. It calculates the arithmetic mean of a selected range of prices over a specified number of periods. Developed in the early days of technical analysis, the SMA provides traders with a straightforward method to identify trends by smoothing price data and filtering out short-term fluctuations. Due to its simplicity and effectiveness, it remains a cornerstone indicator that forms the basis for numerous other technical analysis tools.
## What’s Different in this Implementation
- **Constant streaming update:**
On each bar we:
1) subtract the value leaving the window,
2) add the new value,
3) divide by the number of valid samples (early) or by `period` (once full).
- **Deterministic lag, same as textbook SMA:**
Once full, lag is `(period - 1)/2` bars—identical to the classic SMA. You just **don’t lose the first `period-1` bars** to `na`.
- **Large windows without penalty:**
Complexity is constant per tick; memory is bounded by `period`. Very long SMAs stay cheap.
## Behavior on Early Bars
- **Bars < period:** returns the arithmetic mean of **available** samples.
Example (period = 10): bar #3 is the average of the first 3 inputs—not `na`.
- **Bars ≥ period:** behaves exactly like standard SMA over a fixed-length window.
> Implication: Crosses and signals can appear earlier than with `ta.sma()` because you’re not suppressing the first `period-1` bars.
## When to Prefer This
- Backtests needing early bars: You want signals and state from the very first bars.
- High-frequency or very long SMAs: O(1) updates avoid per-bar CPU spikes.
- Memory-tight scripts: Single circular buffer; no large temp arrays per tick.
## Caveats & Tips
Backtest comparability: If you previously relied on na gating from ta.sma(), add your own warm-up guard (e.g., only trade after bar_index >= period-1) for apples-to-apples.
Missing data: The function treats the current bar via nz(source); adjust if you need strict NA propagation.
Window semantics: After warm-up, results match the textbook SMA window; early bars are a partial-window mean by design.
## Math Notes
Running-sum update:
sum_t = sum_{t-1} - oldest + newest
SMA_t = sum_t / k where k = min(#valid_samples, period)
Lag (full window): (period - 1) / 2 bars.

ATR Money Line Bands V2The "ATR Money Line Bands V2" is a clever TradingView overlay designed for trend identification with volatility-aware bands, evolving from basic ATR envelopes.
Reasoning Behind Construction: The core idea is to blend a smoothed trend line with dynamic volatility bands for reliable signals in varying markets. The "Money Line" uses linear regression (ta.linreg) on closes over a length (default 16) instead of a moving average, as it fits data via least-squares for a cleaner, forward-projected trend without lag artifacts. ATR (default 12-period) powers the bands because it measures true range volatility better than std dev in gappy assets like crypto/stocks—bands offset from the Money Line by ATR * multiplier (default 1.5). A dynamic multiplier (boosts by ~33% on spikes > prior ATR * 1.3) prevents tight bands from false breakouts during surges. Trend detection checks slope against an ATR-scaled tolerance (default 0.15) to ignore noise, labeling bull/bear/neutral—avoiding whipsaws in flats.
Properties: It's an overlay with a colored Money Line (green bull, red bear, yellow neutral) and invisible bands (toggle to show gray lines) filled semi-transparently matching trend for visual pop. Dynamic adaptation makes bands widen/contract intelligently. An info table (positionable, e.g., top_right) displays real-time values: Money Line, bands, ATR, trend—great for quick scans. Limits history (2000 bars) and labels (500) for efficiency.
Tips for Usage: Apply to any timeframe/asset; defaults suit medium-term (e.g., daily stocks). Watch color flips: green for longs (enter on pullbacks to lower band), red for shorts (vice versa), yellow to sit out. Use bands as S/R—breakouts signal momentum, squeezes impending vol. Tweak length for sensitivity (shorter for intraday), multiplier for width (higher for trends), tolerance for fewer neutrals. Pair with volume/RSI for confirmation; backtest to optimize. In choppy markets, disable dynamic mult to avoid over-expansion. Overall, it's adaptive and visual—helps trend-follow without overcomplicating.
Adaptive Trend SelectorThe Adaptive Trend Selector is a comprehensive trend-following tool designed to automatically identify the optimal moving average crossover strategy. It features adjustable parameters and an integrated backtester that delivers institutional-grade insights into the recommended strategy. The model continuously adapts to new data in real time by evaluating multiple moving average combinations, determining the best performing lengths, and presenting the backtest results in a clear, color-coded table that benchmarks performance against the buy-and-hold strategy.
At its core, the model systematically backtests a wide range of moving average combinations to identify the configuration that maximizes the selected optimization metric. Users can choose to optimize for absolute returns or risk-adjusted returns using the Sharpe, Sortino, or Calmar ratios. Alternatively, users can enable manual optimization to test custom fast and slow moving average lengths and view the corresponding backtest results. The label displays the Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of the strategy, with the buy-and-hold CAGR in parentheses for comparison. The table presents the backtest results based on the fast and slow lengths displayed at the top:
Sharpe = CAGR per unit of standard deviation.
Sortino = CAGR per unit of downside deviation.
Calmar = CAGR relative to maximum drawdown.
Max DD = Largest peak-to-trough decline in value.
Beta (β) = Return sensitivity relative to buy-and-hold.
Alpha (α) = Excess annualized risk-adjusted returns.
Win Rate = Ratio of profitable trades to total trades.
Profit Factor = Total gross profit per unit of losses.
Expectancy = Average expected return per trade.
Trades/Year = Average number of trades per year.
This indicator is designed with flexibility in mind, enabling users to specify the start date of the backtesting period and the preferred moving average strategy. Supported strategies include the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Simple Moving Average (SMA), Wilder’s Moving Average (RMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), and Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA). To minimize overfitting, users can define constraints such as a minimum and maximum number of trades per year, as well as an optional optimization margin that prioritizes longer, more robust combinations by requiring shorter-length strategies to exceed this threshold. The table follows an intuitive color logic that enables quick performance comparison against buy-and-hold (B&H):
Sharpe = Green indicates better than B&H, while red indicates worse.
Sortino = Green indicates better than B&H, while red indicates worse.
Calmar = Green indicates better than B&H, while red indicates worse.
Max DD = Green indicates better than B&H, while red indicates worse.
Beta (β) = Green indicates better than B&H, while red indicates worse.
Alpha (α) = Green indicates above 0%, while red indicates below 0%.
Win Rate = Green indicates above 50%, while red indicates below 50%.
Profit Factor = Green indicates above 2, while red indicates below 1.
Expectancy = Green indicates above 0%, while red indicates below 0%.
In summary, the Adaptive Trend Selector is a powerful tool designed to help investors make data-driven decisions when selecting moving average crossover strategies. By optimizing for risk-adjusted returns, investors can confidently identify the best lengths using institutional-grade metrics. While results are based on the selected historical period, users should be mindful of potential overfitting, as past results may not persist under future market conditions. Since the model recalibrates to incorporate new data, the recommended lengths may evolve over time.
Better DEMAThe Better DEMA is a new tool designed to recreate the classical moving average DEMA, into a smoother, more reliable tool. Combining many methodologies, this script offers users a unique insight into market behavior.
How does it work?
First, to get a smoother signal, we need to calculate the Gaussian filter. A Gaussian filter is a smoothing filter that reduces noise and detail by averaging data with weights following a Gaussian (bell-shaped) curve.
Now that we have the source, we will calculate the following:
n2 = n/2 (half of the user defined length)
a = 2/(1+n)
ns
Now that we have that out of the way, it is time to get into the core.
Now we calculate 2 EMAs:
slow EMA => EMA over n
fast EMA => EMA over n2 period
Rather then now doing this:
DEMA = fast EMA * 2 - slow EMA
I found this to be better:
DEMA = slow EMA * (1-a) + fast EMA * a
As a last touch I took a little something from the HMA, and used a EMA with period of √n to smooth the entire the thing.
The Trend condition at base is the following (but feel free to FAFO with it):
Long = dema > dema yesterday and dema < src
Short = dema < dema yesterday and dema > src
Methodology
While the DEMA is an amazing tool used in many great indicators, it can be far too noisy.
This made me test out many filters, out of which the Gaussian performed best.
Then I tried out the non subtractive approach and that worked too, as it made it smoother.
Compacting on all I learned and smoothing it bit by bit, I think I can say this is worth looking into :).
Use cases:
Following Trends => classic, effective :)
Smoothing sources for other indicators => if done well enough, could be useful :)
Easy trend visualization => Added extra options for that.
Strategy development => Yes
Another good thing is it does not a high lookback period, so it should be better and less overfit.
That is all for today Gs,
Have fun and enjoy!
THAIT Moving Averages Tight within # ATR EMA SMA convergence
THAIT(tight) indicator is a powerful tool for identifying moving average convergence in price action. This indicator plots four user-defined moving averages (EMA or SMA). It highlights moments when the MAs converge within a user specified number of ATRs, adjusted by the 14-period ATR, signaling potential trend shifts or consolidation.
A convergence is flagged when MA1 is the maximum, the spread between MAs is tight, and the price is above MA1, excluding cases where the longest MA (MA4) is the highest. The indicator alerts and visually marks convergence zones with a shaded green background, making it ideal for traders seeking precise entry or exit points.

Avoid trading first 15 minutes - let market settle
Best during 10am-11am and 2pm-3pm - peak momentum times
Common Questions
Q: Why didn't I get a signal even though MACD crossed?
A: All conditions must be met - check dashboard for what's missing (likely volume or trend alignment)
Q: Can I use this on any timeframe?
A: Yes, but it's designed for 5-15 minute charts. On daily charts, adjust ATR multipliers higher.
Q: The stop loss seems too tight, can I widen it?
A: Yes, increase "Stop Loss (×ATR)" from 1.5 to 2.0 or 2.5 in settings.
Q: I keep seeing FAKE warnings but price keeps going - what gives?
A: The filter is conservative. You can disable some filters in settings, but expect more false signals.
Q: Can I use this for swing trading?
A: Yes, but use larger timeframes (1H or 4H) and adjust ATR multipliers up (3× for stops, 6-9× for targets).
PDB - RSI Based Buy/Sell signals with 4 MARSI Based Buy/Sell Signals on Price chart + 4 MA System
This indicator plots RSI-based Buy & Sell signals directly on the price chart , combined with a 4-Moving-Average trend filter (20/50/100/200) for higher accuracy and cleaner trade timing.
The signal triggers when RSI reaches user-defined overbought/oversold levels, but unlike a standard RSI, this version plots the signals **on the chart**, not in the RSI window — making entries and exits easier to see in real time.
RSI Levels Are Fully Customizable
The default RSI thresholds are 30 (oversold) and 70 (overbought).
However, you can adjust these to fit your trading style. For example:
> When day trading on the 5–15 min timeframe, I personally use 35 (oversold) and 75 (overbought) to catch moves earlier.
> The example shown in the preview image uses 10-minute timeframe settings.
You can change the RSI levels to trigger signals from **any value you choose**, allowing you to tailor the indicator to scalping, day trading, or swing trading.
4 Moving Averages Included:
20, 50, 100, 200 MAs act as dynamic trend filters so you can:
✔ trade signals only in the direction of trend
✔ avoid false reversals
✔ identify momentum shifts more clearly
Works on all markets and timeframes — crypto, stocks, FX, indices.
OBV (Delta or regular)This is a quite simple script to apply some choices to OBV.
You can choose to use regular OBV values or you can choose to use delta OBV values.
Delta OBV values calculates the delta between selling volume and buying volume per bar to find discrepancies.
You can make the OBV a smoothed line or just keep the normal rigid line. Rigid line is default.
A secondary smoothed OBV line is added automatically with color change if the OBV is above or below the smoothed line.
You can set your desired MA from SMA, EMA, VWMA and WMA, The same will be applied to both lines if chosen to smooth them both.
Both lines are editable from the styles tab (visibility, color and line type)
If you for some reason don't want color change on the secondary line, chose the same color for both color 1 and 2.
Simple delta OBV example:
If a red bar has a long lower wick, OBV will calculate the entire bar towards bearish volume, while the delta will check if there's more buying or selling happening in total. Some times you'll be able to catch divergences in the volume which implies a reversal might be in the making.
For instance more selling on a green candle making the OBV drop instead of increasing or vise versa.
Hopefully someone finds is useful.
Kalman Exponential SuperTrendThe Kalman Exponential SuperTrend is a new, smoother & superior version of the famous "SuperTrend". Using Kalman smoothing, a concept from the EMA (Exponential Moving Average), this script leverages the best out of each and combines it into a single indicator.
How does it work?
First, we need to calculate the Kalman smoothed source. This is a kind of complex calculation, so you need to study it if you want to know how it works precisely. It smooths the source of the SuperTrend, which helps us smooth the SuperTrend.
Then, we calculate "a" where:
n = user defined ATR length
a = 2/(n+1)
Now we calculate the ATR over "n" period. Classical calculation, nothing changed here.
Now we calculate the SuperTrend using the Kalman smoothed source & ATR where:
kalman = kalman smoothed source
ATR = Average True Range
m = Factor chosen by user.
Upper Band = kalman + ATR * m
Lower Band = kalman - ATR * m
Now we just smooth it a bit further using the "a" and a concept from the EMA.
u1 = Upper Band a bar ago
l1 = Lower Band a bar ago
u = Upper Band
l = Lower Band
Upper = u1 * (1-a) + u * a
Lower = l1 * (1-a) + u * a
When the classical (not Kalman) source crosses above the Upper, it indicates an uptrend. When it crosses below the Lower, it indicates a downtrend.
Methodology & Concepts
When I took a look at the classical SuperTrend => It was just far too slow, and if I made it faster it was noisy as hell. So I decided I would try to make up for it.
I tried the gaussian, bilateral filter, but then I tried kalman and that worked the best, so I added it. Now it was still too noisy and unconsistent, so I revisited my knowledge of concepts and picked the one from the EMA, and it kinda solved it.
In the core of the indicator, all it does is combine them in a really simple way, but if you go more deeply you see how it fits the puzzlé really well.
It is not about trying out random things´=> but about seeking what it is missing and trying to lessen its bad side.
That is the entire point of this indicator => Offer a unique approach to the SuperTrend type, that lessen the bad sides of it.
I also added different plotting types, this is so everyone can find their favorite

Grok's xAI Signal (GXS) Indicator for BTC V6Grok's xAI Signal (GXS) Indicator: A Simple Guide
Imagine trying to decide if Bitcoin is a "buy," "sell," or "wait" without staring at 10 different charts. The GXS Indicator does that for you—it's like a smart dashboard for BTC traders, overlaying signals right on your price chart. It boils down complex market clues into one easy score (from -1 "super bearish" to +1 "super bullish") and flashes green/red arrows or shaded zones when action's needed. No fancy math overload; just clear visuals like tiny triangles for trades, colored clouds for trends, and a bottom "mood bar" (green=up vibe, red=down, gray=meh).
At its core, GXS mixes three big-picture checks:
Price Momentum (50% weight): Quick scans of RSI (overbought/oversold vibes), MACD (speed of ups/downs), EMAs (is price riding the trend wave?), and Bollinger Bands (is the market squeezing for a breakout?). This catches short-term "hot or not" energy.
Network Health (30% weight): A simple "NVT" hack using trading volume vs. price to spot if BTC feels undervalued (buy hint) or overhyped (sell warning). It's like checking if the crowd's too excited or chill.
Trend Strength (20% weight): ADX filter ensures signals only fire in "trending" markets (not choppy sideways noise), plus a MACD boost for extra momentum nudge.
Why this approach? BTC's wild—pure price charts give false alarms in flat times, while ignoring volume/network ignores the "why" behind moves. GXS blends old-school TA (reliable for patterns) with on-chain smarts (crypto-specific "under the hood" data) and a trend gate (skips 70% of bad trades). It's conservative: Signals need the score to cross ±0.08 and a strong trend, reducing noise for swing/position traders. Result? Fewer emotional guesses, more "wait for confirmation" patience—perfect for volatile assets like BTC where hype kills.
Quick Tips to Tweak for Better Results
Start with defaults, then experiment on historical charts (backtest via TradingView's strategy tester if pairing with one):
Fewer False Signals: Bump thresholds to ±0.15 (buy/sell)—trades only on stronger conviction, cutting whipsaws by 20-30% in choppy markets. Or raise ADX thresh to 28 for "only big trends."
Faster/Slower Response: Shorten EMAs (e.g., 5/21) or RSI (10) for quicker scalps; lengthen (12/50) for swing holds. Test on 4H/daily BTC.
Volume Sensitivity: If NVT flips too often, extend its length to 20—smooths on-chain noise in bull runs.
Visual Polish: Crank cloud opacity to 80% for subtler fills; toggle off EMAs if they clutter. Enable table for score breakdowns during live trades.
Risk Tip: Always pair with stops (e.g., 2-3% below signals). On BTC, tweak in bull markets (looser thresh) vs. bears (tighter).
In short, GXS is your BTC "sixth sense"—balanced, not black-box. Tweak small, track win rate, and let trends lead. Happy trading!

Rainbow Moving Averages (v5 safe)Rainbow Moving Averages — plots multiple moving averages of different lengths in a rainbow colour scheme to visualise market trend strength and direction. The spread and alignment of the lines help identify trend changes and momentum shifts.
EMA HeatmapEMA Heatmap — Indicator Description
The EMA Order Heatmap is a visual trend-structure tool designed to show whether the market is currently trending bullish, trending bearish, or moving through a neutral consolidation phase. It evaluates the alignment of multiple exponential moving averages (EMAs) at three different structural layers: short-term daily, medium-term daily, and weekly macro trend. This creates a quick and intuitive picture of how well price movement is organized across timeframes.
Each layer of the heatmap is scored from bearish to bullish based on how the EMAs are stacked relative to each other. When EMAs are in a fully bullish configuration, the row displays a bright green or lime color. Fully bearish alignment is shown in red. Yellow tones appear when the EMAs are mixed or compressing, indicating uncertainty, trend exhaustion, or a change in market character. The three rows combined offer a concise view of whether strength or weakness is isolated to one timeframe or broad across the market.
This indicator is best used as a trend filter before making trading decisions. Traders may find more consistent setups when the majority of the heatmap supports the direction of their trade. Green-dominant conditions suggest a trending bullish environment where long trades can be favored. Red-dominant conditions indicate bearish momentum and stronger potential for short opportunities. When yellow becomes more prominent, the market may be transitioning, ranging, or gearing up for a breakout, making timing more challenging and risk higher.
• Helps quickly identify directional bias
• Highlights when trends strengthen, weaken, or turn
• Provides insight into whether momentum is supported by higher timeframes
• Encourages traders to avoid fighting market structure
It is important to recognize the limitations. EMAs are lagging indicators, so the heatmap may confirm a trend after the initial move is underway, especially during fast reversals. In sideways or low-volume environments, the structure can shift frequently, reducing clarity. This tool does not generate entry or exit signals on its own and should be paired with price action, momentum studies, or support and resistance analysis for precise trade execution.
The EMA Order Heatmap offers a clean and reliable way to stay aligned with the broader market environment and avoid lower-quality trades in indecisive conditions. It supports more disciplined decision-making by helping traders focus on setups that match the prevailing structural trend.
Ehlers Ultrasmooth Filter (USF)# USF: Ultrasmooth Filter
## Overview and Purpose
The Ultrasmooth Filter (USF) is an advanced signal processing tool that represents the pinnacle of noise reduction technology for financial time series. Developed by John Ehlers, this filter implements a complex algorithm that provides exceptional smoothing capabilities while minimizing the lag typically associated with heavy filtering. USF builds upon the Super Smooth Filter (SSF) with enhanced noise suppression characteristics, making it particularly valuable for identifying clear trends in extremely noisy market conditions where even traditional smoothing techniques struggle to produce clean signals.
## Core Concepts
* **Maximum noise suppression:** Provides the highest level of noise reduction among Ehlers' filter designs
* **Optimized coefficient structure:** Uses carefully designed mathematical relationships to achieve superior filtering performance
* **Market application:** Particularly effective for long-term trend identification and minimizing false signals in highly volatile market conditions
The core innovation of USF is its second-order filter structure with optimized coefficients that create an exceptionally smooth frequency response. By careful mathematical design, USF achieves near-optimal noise suppression characteristics while minimizing the lag and waveform distortion that typically accompany such heavy filtering. This makes it especially valuable for identifying major market trends amid significant short-term volatility.
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
|-----------|---------|----------|---------------|
| Length | 20 | Controls the cutoff period | Increase for smoother signals, decrease for more responsiveness |
| Source | close | Price data used for calculation | Consider using hlc3 for a more balanced price representation |
**Pro Tip:** USF is ideal for defining major market trends - try using it with a length of 40-60 on daily charts to identify dominant market direction and ignoring shorter-term noise completely.
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Simplified explanation:**
The Ultrasmooth Filter creates an extremely clean price representation by combining current and past price data with previous filter outputs using precisely calculated mathematical relationships. This creates a highly effective "averaging" process that removes virtually all market noise while still maintaining the essential trend information.
**Technical formula:**
USF = (1-c1)X + (2c1-c2)X₁ - (c1+c3)X₂ + c2×USF₁ + c3×USF₂
Where coefficients are calculated as:
- a1 = exp(-1.414π/length)
- b1 = 2a1 × cos(1.414 × 180/length)
- c1 = (1 + c2 - c3)/4
- c2 = b1
- c3 = -a1²
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The filter combines both feed-forward (X terms) and feedback (USF terms) components in a second-order structure, creating a response with exceptional roll-off characteristics and minimal passband ripple.
## Interpretation Details
The Ultrasmooth Filter can be used in various trading strategies:
* **Major trend identification:** The direction of USF indicates the dominant market trend with minimal noise interference
* **Signal generation:** Crossovers between price and USF generate high-reliability trade signals with minimal false positives
* **Support/resistance levels:** USF can act as strong dynamic support during uptrends and resistance during downtrends
* **Market regime identification:** The slope of USF helps identify whether markets are in trending or consolidation phases
* **Multiple timeframe analysis:** Using USF across different chart timeframes creates a cohesive picture of nested trend structures
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Significant lag:** The extreme smoothing comes with increased lag compared to lighter filters
* **Initialization period:** Requires more bars than simpler filters to stabilize at the start of data
* **Less suitable for short-term trading:** Generally too slow-responding for short-term strategies
* **Parameter sensitivity:** Performance depends on appropriate length selection for the timeframe

Reactive Curvature Smoother Moving Average IndicatorSummary in one paragraph
RCS MA is a reactive curvature smoother for any liquid instrument on intraday through swing timeframes. It helps you act only when context strengthens by adapting its window length with a normalized path energy score and by smoothing with robust residual weights over a quadratic fit, then optionally blending a capped one step forecast. Add it to a clean chart and watch the single colored line. Shapes can shift while a bar forms and settle on close. For conservative use, judge on bar close.
Scope and intent
• Markets: major FX pairs, index futures, large cap equities, liquid crypto
• Timeframes: one minute to daily
• Purpose: reduce lag in trends while resisting chop and outliers
• Limits: indicator only, no orders
Originality and usefulness
• Novelty: adaptive window selection by minimizing normalized path energy with directionality bias, plus Huber weighted residuals and curvature aware penalty, finished with a mintick capped forecast blend
• Failure modes addressed: whipsaws from fixed length MAs and outlier spikes that pull means
• Testable: Inputs expose all components and optional diagnostics show chosen length, directionality, and energy
• Portable yardstick: forecast cap uses mintick to stay symbol aware
Method overview in plain language
Base measures
• Range span of the tested window and a path energy defined as the sum of squared price increments, normalized by span
Components
Adaptive window chooser: scans L between Min and Max using an energy over trend score and picks the lowest score
Robust smoother: fits a quadratic to the last L bars, computes residuals, applies Huber weights and an exponential residual penalty scaled down when curvature is high
Forecast blend: projects one step ahead from the quadratic, caps displacement by a multiple of mintick, blends by user weight
Fusion rule
• Final line equals robust mean plus optional capped forecast blend
Signal rule
• Visual bias only: color turns lime when close is above the line, red otherwise
What you will see on the chart
• One colored line that tightens in trends and relaxes in chop
• Optional debug overlays for core value, chosen L, directionality, and energy
• Optional last bar label with L, directionality, and energy
• Reminder: drawings can move intrabar and settle on close
Inputs with guidance
Setup
• Source: price series to smooth
Logic
• Min window l_min. Typical 5 to 21. Higher increases stability, adds lag
• Max window l_max. Typical 40 to 128. Higher reduces noise, adds lag ceiling
• Length step grid_step. Typical 1 to 8. Smaller is finer and heavier
• Trend bias trend_bias. Typical 0.50 to 0.80. Higher favors trend persistence
• Residual penalty lambda_base. Typical 0.8 to 2.0. Higher downweights large residuals more
• Huber threshold huber_k. Typical 1.5 to 3.0. Higher admits more outliers
• Curvature guard curv_guard. Typical 0.3 to 1.0. Higher reduces influence when curve is tight
• Forecast blend lead_blend. 0 disables. Typical 0.10 to 0.40
• Forecast cap lead_limit. Typical 1 to 5 minticks
• Show chosen L and metrics show_debug. Diagnostics toggle
Optional: enable diagnostics to see length, direction, and energy
Realism and responsible publication
• No performance claims. Past results never guarantee future outcomes
• Shapes can move while bars are open and settle on close
• Use on standard candles for analysis and combine with your own risk process
Honest limitations and failure modes
• Very quiet regimes can reduce energy contrast, length selection may hover near the bounds
• Gap heavy symbols can disrupt quadratic fit on the window edges
• Excessive forecast blend may look anticipatory; use low values and the cap

Introduction
This indicator combines multi-type moving averages, loop-based momentum scoring, and divergence detection for adaptive trend and reversal analysis.
Key Features:
Multiple Moving Average Selection System: Choose from 16 different MA types - HMA, ALMA and JMA etc. To match your style best.
For Loop Based Scoring: Uses a From / To system to calculate cumulative buying/selling pressure across recent price action.
Signal Threshold: Long / Short threshold levels to control the sensitivity for different market conditions.
Divergence Detection: Regular bullish / bearish with clear labels for potential reversal points.
Clean Visuals: Multiple color themes with table and color based indicator line for easy reading.
How It Works:
Core Calculation: The indicator first creates a directional signal by comparing price to your selected moving average, normalized for current volatility.
Loop Analysis: This signal feeds into a for-loop that scores recent price history, generating a cumulative momentum value.
Signal Generation:
Bullish signals trigger when the score crosses above the Upper Threshold
Bearish signals trigger when the score crosses below the Lower Threshold
Divergence Alerts: Automatically detects when price makes new highs/lows that aren't confirmed by the oscillator.
Practical Use:
Trend Identification: The color-coded oscillator and signal table help confirm trend direction.
Reversal Warning: Divergence labels highlight potential trend exhaustion points for careful watch.
Customization:
Adjust MA type and length for sensitivity tuning
Modify loop parameters (From/To) to change analysis depth
Fine-tune threshold levels for signal frequency
Enable/disable divergence detection as needed
