Volumetric Volatility Breaker Blocks [UAlgo]The "Volumetric Volatility Breaker Blocks " indicator is designed for traders who want a comprehensive understanding of market volatility combined with volume analysis. This indicator provides a clear visualization of significant volatility areas (or blocks), characterized by price movements that exceed a specific volatility threshold, as calculated using the ATR (Average True Range). The concept is enhanced by integrating volume-based insights, offering a view of market activity that helps users to recognize when significant price changes are being supported by an appropriate level of market participation.
The indicator calculates breaker blocks for both bullish and bearish market conditions, providing distinct visual elements that identify periods of high volatility and substantial volume divergence. The focus on both volume and volatility makes this tool versatile, allowing traders to assess the strength of price movements as well as areas where price might break above or below previously established levels.
It supports adjustable parameters, such as volatility length, smoothness factor, and volume display, allowing traders to fine-tune the indicator according to their trading strategy and market environment. The highlighted breaker blocks assist in identifying zones of potential price reversal or continuation, which can be critical for making informed trading decisions.
🔶 Key Features
Volatility-Based Block Identification: The indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to determine the volatility of the market. When the ATR exceeds a specified threshold (smooth ATR multiplied by a user-defined multiplier), it highlights these areas as volatility blocks. The idea is to mark periods where price activity is significantly divergent from normal conditions, which often signals market opportunities.
Volume Integrated Analysis: In addition to tracking volatility, the indicator incorporates volume data, allowing traders to see the amount of activity that occurs during these high-volatility periods. This helps in identifying whether a price movement is likely sustainable or whether it lacks market support.
User Adjustable Parameters: The indicator offers customization options for the volatility length (using ATR), smooth length, and multiplier for sensitivity adjustment. These settings enable users to modify the indicator’s responsiveness to market conditions.
The option to display the last few volatility blocks allows traders to manage clutter on their charts and focus only on the most recent significant data.
Mitigation Method: Users can select between different mitigation methods ("Close" or "Wick") to determine how blocks are broken. This adds an extra layer of adaptability, allowing traders to modify the indicator's response based on different price action strategies.
Dynamic Visual Representation: The indicator dynamically draws boxes for volatility blocks and shades them according to market direction, with split areas showing the bullish and bearish strength contributions. It also provides percentage volume for each block, helping traders understand the relative market participation during these moves.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Identifying High Volatility Areas: When a new volatility block appears, it signifies that the market is experiencing higher-than-usual volatility, driven by increased ATR values. Traders should pay attention to these blocks, as they often indicate that a significant price move is occurring. Bullish blocks suggest upward pressure, whereas bearish blocks indicate downward pressure.
Volume Insights: The volume associated with each volatility block provides an insight into how much market participation accompanies these moves. Higher volume within a block implies that the market is actively supporting the price change, which may be a sign of continuation. Low volume suggests that the movement may lack the strength to persist.
Bullish vs. Bearish Strength Analysis: Each block is split into bullish and bearish strength, giving a clearer picture of what’s happening within the volatility period. If the bullish portion dominates, it indicates strong upward sentiment during that period. Conversely, if the bearish side is more prominent, there is more selling pressure. This breakdown helps in understanding intra-block market dynamics.
Volume Percentage Display: The indicator also displays the volume percentage in each block, which provides context for the strength of the move relative to recent market activity. Higher percentages mean more market engagement, which could confirm the legitimacy of a trend or a significant breakout.

RSI Pulsar [QuantraSystems]RSI Pulsar
Introduction
The RSI Pulsar is an advanced and multifaceted tool designed to cater to the varying needs of traders, from long-term swing traders to higher-frequency day traders. This indicator takes the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to new heights by combining several unique methodologies to provide clear, actionable signals across different market conditions. With its ability to analyze impulsive trend strength, volatility, and binary market direction, the RSI Pulsar offers a holistic view of the market that assists traders in identifying robust signals and rotational opportunities within a volatile market.
The integration of dynamic color coding further aids in quick visual assessments, allowing traders to adapt swiftly to changing market conditions, making the RSI Pulsar an essential component in the arsenal of modern traders aiming for precision and adaptability in their trading endeavors.
Legend
The RSI Pulsar encapsulates various modes tailored to diverse trading strategies. The different modes are the:
Impulse Mode:
Focuses on strong outperformance, ideal for capturing movements in highly dynamic tokens.
Trend Following Mode:
A classical perpetual trend-following approach and provides binary long and short signal classifications ideal for medium term swing trading.
Ribbon Mode:
Offers quicker signals that are also binary in nature. Perfect for a confirmation signal when building higher frequency day trading systems.
Volatility Spectrum:
This feature projects a visual 'cloud' representing volatility, which helps traders spot emerging trends and potential breakouts or reversals.
Compressed Mode:
A condensed view that displays all signals in a clean and space-efficient manner. It provides a clear summary of market conditions, ideal for traders who prefer a simplified overview.
Methodology
The RSI Pulsar is built on a foundation of dynamic RSI analysis, where the traditional RSI is enhanced with advanced moving averages and standard deviation calculations. Each mode within the RSI Pulsar is designed to cater to specific aspects of the market's behavior, making it a versatile tool allowing traders to select different modes based on their trading style and market conditions.
Impulse Mode:
This mode identifies strong outperformance in assets, making it ideal for asset rotation systems. It uses a combination of RSI thresholds and dynamic moving averages to pinpoint when an asset is not just trending positively, but doing so with significant strength.
This is in contrast to typical usage of a base RSI, where elevated levels usually signal overbought and oversold periods. The RSI Pulsar flips this logic, where more extreme values are actually interpreted as a strong trend.
Trend Following Mode:
Here, the RSI is compared to the midline (the default is level 50, but a dynamic midline can also be set), to determine the prevailing trend. This mode simplifies the trend-following process, providing clear bullish or bearish signals based on whether the RSI is above or below the midline - whether a fixed or dynamic level.
Ribbon Mode:
This mode employs a series of calculated values derived from modified Heikin-Ashi smoothing to create a "ribbon" that smooths out price action and highlights underlying trends. The Ribbon Mode is particularly useful for traders who need quick confirmations of trend reversals or continuations.
Volatility Spectrum:
The Volatility Spectrum takes a unique approach to measuring market volatility by analyzing the size and direction of Heikin-Ashi candles. This data is used to create a volatility cloud that helps traders identify when volatility is rising, falling, or neutral - allowing them to adjust their strategies accordingly.
When the signal line breaks above the cloud, it signals increasing upwards volatility. When it breaks below it signifies increasing downwards volatility.
This can be used to help identify strengthening and weakening trends, as well as imminent volatile periods, allowing traders to position themselves and adapt their strategies accordingly. This mode also works as a great volatility filter for shorter term day trading strategies. It is incredibly sensitive to volatility divergences, and can give additional insights to larger market turning points.
Compressed Mode:
In Compressed Mode, all the signals from the various modes are displayed in a simplified format, making it easy for traders to quickly assess the market's overall condition without needing to delve into the details of each mode individually. Perfect for only viewing the exact data you need when live trading, or back testing.
Case Study I:
Utilizing ALMA Impulse Mode in High-Volatility Environments
Here, the RSI Pulsar is configured with an RSI length of 9 and an ALMA length of 2 in Impulse Mode. The chart example shows how this setup can identify significant price movements, allowing traders to enter positions early and capture substantial price moves. Despite the fast settings resulting in occasional false signals, the indicator's ability to catch and ride out major trends more than compensates, making it highly effective in volatile environments.
This configuration is suitable for traders seeking to trade quick, aggressive movements without enduring prolonged drawdowns. In Impulse Mode, the RSI Pulsar seeks strong trending zones, providing actionable signals that allow for timely entries and exits.
Case Study II:
SMMA Trend Following Mode for Ratio Analysis
The RSI Pulsar in Trend Following mode, configured with the SMMA with default length settings. This setup is ideal for analyzing longer-term trends, particularly useful in cryptocurrency pairs or ratio charts, where it’s crucial to identify robust directional moves. The chart showcases strong trends in the Solana/Ethereum pair. The RSI Pulsar’s ability to smooth out price action while remaining responsive to trend changes makes it an excellent tool for capturing extended price moves.
The image highlights how the RSI Pulsar efficiently tracks the strength of two tokens against each other, providing clear signals when one asset begins to outperform the other. Even in volatile markets, the SMMA ensures that the signals are reliable, filtering out noise and allowing traders to stay in the trend longer without being shaken out by minor corrections. This approach is particularly effective in ratio trading in order to inform a longer term swing trader of the strongest asset out of a customized pair.
Case Study III:
Monthly Analysis with RSI Pulsar in Ribbon Mode
This case study demonstrates the versatility and reliability of the RSI Pulsar in Ribbon mode, applied to a monthly chart of Bitcoin with an RSI length of 8 and a TEMA length of 14. This setup highlights the indicator’s robustness across multiple timeframes, extending even to long-term analysis. The RSI Pulsar effectively smooths out noise while capturing significant trends, as seen during Bitcoin bull markets. The Ribbon mode provides a clear visual representation of momentum shifts, making it easier for traders to identify trend continuations and reversals with confidence.
Case Study IV:
Divergences and Continuations with the Volatility Spectrum
Identifying harmony/divergences can be hit-or-miss at times, but this unique analysis method definitely has its merits at times. The RSI Pulsar, with its Volatility Spectrum feature, is used here to identify critical moments where price action either aligns with or diverges from the underlying volatility. As seen in the Bitcoin chart (using default settings), the indicator highlights areas where price trends either continue in harmony with volatility or diverge, signaling potential reversals. This method, while not always perfect, provides significant insight during key turning points in the market.
The Volatility Spectrum's visual representation of rising and falling volatility, combined with divergence and harmony analysis, enables traders to anticipate significant shifts in market dynamics. In this case, multiple divergences correctly identified early trend reversals, while periods of harmony indicated strong trend continuations. While this method requires careful interpretation, especially during complex market conditions, it offers valuable signals that can be pivotal in making informed trading decisions, especially if combined with other forms of analysis it can form a critical component of an investing system.

FVG Channel [LuxAlgo]The FVG Channel indicator displays a channel constructed from the averages of unmitigated historical fair value gaps (FVG), allowing to identify trends and potential reversals in the market.
Users can control the amount of FVGs to consider for the calculation of the channels, as well as their degree of smoothness through user settings.
🔶 USAGE
The FVG Channel is constructed by averaging together recent unmitigated Bullish FVGs (contributing to the creation of the upper bands), and Bearish unmitigated FVGs (contributing to the creation of the lower bands) within a lookback determined by the user. A higher lookback will return longer-term indications from the indicator.
The channel includes 5 bands, with one upper and one lower outer extremities, as well as an inner series of values determined using the Fibonacci ratios (respectively 0.786, 0.5, 0.236) from the channel's outer extremities.
An uptrend can be identified by price holding above the inner upper band (obtained from the 0.786 ratio), this band can also provide occasional support when the price retraces to it while in an uptrend.
Breaking below the inner upper band with an unwillingness to reach above again is a clear sign of hesitation in the market and can be indicative of an upcoming consolidation or reversal.
This can directly be applied to downtrends as well, below are examples displaying both scenarios.
Uptrend Example:
Downtrend Example:
🔹 Breakout Levels
When the price mitigates all FVGs in a single direction except for 1, the indicator will display a "Breakout Level". This is the level that price will need to cross in order for all FVGs in that direction to be mitigated, because of this they can also be aptly called "Last Stand Levels".
These levels can be considered as potential support and resistance levels, however, should always be monitored for breakouts since a substantial push above or below these points would indicate strong momentum.
🔹 Signals
The indicator includes Bullish and Bearish Signals, these signals fire when all FVGs for a single direction have been mitigated and an engulfing candle occurs in the opposite direction. These are reversal signals and should be used alongside other indicators to appropriately manage risk.
Note: When all FVGs in a single direction have been mitigated, the candles will change colors accordingly.
🔶 DETAILS
The script uses a typical identification method for FVGs. Once identified, the script collects and stores the mitigation levels of the respective bullish and bearish FVGs:
For Bullish FVGs this is the bottom of the FVG.
For Bearish FVGs this is the top of the FVG.
The data is managed to only consider a specific amount of FVG mitigation levels, determined by the set "Unmitigated FVG Lookback". If an FVG is mitigated, it frees up a spot in the memory for a new FVG, however, if the memory is full, the oldest will be deleted.
The averages displayed (Channel Upper and Lower) are created from 2 calculation steps, the first step involves taking the raw average of the FVG mitigation levels, and the second step applies a simple moving average (SMA) smoothing of the precedent obtained averages.
Note: To view the mitigation levels average obtained in the first step, the "Smoothing Length" can be set to 1.
🔶 SETTINGS
Unmitigated FVG Lookback: Sets the maximum number of Unmitigated FVG mitigation levels that the script will use to calculate the channel.
Smoothing Length: Sets the smoothing length for the channel to reduce noise from the raw data.
Cypher Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Cypher Pattern Detector🔵 Introduction
The Cypher Pattern is one of the most accurate and advanced harmonic patterns, introduced by Darren Oglesbee. The Cypher pattern, utilizing Fibonacci ratios and geometric price analysis, helps traders identify price reversal points with high precision. This pattern consists of five key points (X, A, B, C, and D), each playing an important role in determining entry and exit points in the financial markets.
The reversal point typically occurs in the XD region, with the Fibonacci ratio ranging between 0.768 and 0.886. This zone is referred to as the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ), where traders anticipate price changes to occur.
The Cypher harmonic pattern is popular among professional traders due to its high accuracy in identifying market trends and reversal points. The pattern appears in two forms: bullish Cypher pattern and bearish Cypher pattern.
In the bullish Cypher pattern, after a price correction, the price moves upward, while in the bearish Cypher pattern, the price moves downward after a temporary increase. These patterns help traders use technical analysis to identify strong reversal points in the PRZ and execute more optimal trades.
Bullish Cypher Pattern :
Bearish Cypher Pattern :
🔵 How to Use
The Cypher pattern is one of the most complex and precise harmonic patterns, leveraging Fibonacci ratios to help traders identify price reversals. This pattern is comprised of five key points, each playing a critical role in determining entry and exit points.
The Cypher pattern appears in two main types :
Bullish Cypher pattern : This pattern appears as an M shape on the chart and indicates a trend reversal to the upside after a price correction. Traders can prepare for buying after identifying this pattern in technical analysis.
Bearish Cypher pattern : This pattern appears as a W shape and signals the start of a downtrend after a temporary price increase. Traders can use this pattern to enter short positions.
🟣 How to Identify the Cypher Pattern on a Chart
Identifying the Cypher pattern requires precision and the use of advanced technical analysis tools. The pattern consists of four main legs, each identified using Fibonacci ratios and geometric analysis.
To spot the Cypher pattern on a chart, first, identify the five key points : X, A, B, C, and D.
XA leg : The initial move from point X to A.
AB leg : The first correction after the XA move, where the price moves to point B.
BC leg : After the correction, the price moves upwards to point C.
CD leg : The final price move that reaches point D, where a price reversal is expected.
In a bullish Cypher pattern, point D indicates the start of a new uptrend, while in a bearish Cypher pattern, point D signals the beginning of a downtrend. Correctly identifying these points helps traders determine the best time to enter a trade.
🟣 How to Trade Using the Cypher Pattern
Once the Cypher pattern is identified on the chart, traders can use it to set entry and exit points. Point D is the key point for trade entry. In the bullish Cypher pattern, the trader can enter a long position after point D forms, while in the bearish Cypher pattern, point D serves as the ideal point for entering a short position.
🟣 Entering a Buy Trade with the Bullish Cypher Pattern
In a bullish Cypher pattern, traders wait for the price to reach point D, after which they can enter a buy position. At this point, the price is expected to start rising.
🟣 Entering a Sell Trade with the Bearish Cypher Pattern
In a bearish Cypher pattern, the trader enters a sell position at point D, expecting the price to move downward after reaching this point. For additional confirmation, traders can use technical indicators such as RSI or MACD.
🟣 Risk Management in Cypher Pattern Trades
Risk management is one of the most critical aspects of any trade, and this holds true for trading the Cypher pattern. Traders should always use stop-loss orders to prevent larger losses in case the pattern fails.
In the bullish Cypher pattern, the stop-loss is usually placed slightly below point D to exit the trade if the price continues to drop.
In the bearish Cypher pattern, the stop-loss is placed above point D to limit losses if the price rises unexpectedly.
🟣 Combining the Cypher Pattern with Other Technical Tools
The Cypher pattern is a powerful tool in technical analysis, but combining it with other methods such as price action and technical indicators can improve trading accuracy.
🟣 Combining with Price Action
Traders can use price action to confirm the Cypher pattern. Candlestick patterns like reversal candlesticks can provide additional confirmation for price reversals at point D.
🟣 Using Technical Indicators
Incorporating technical indicators such as RSI and MACD can also help traders receive stronger signals for entering trades based on the Cypher pattern. These indicators help identify overbought or oversold conditions, allowing traders to make more informed decisions.
🟣 Advantages and Disadvantages of the Cypher Pattern in Technical Analysis
Advantages :
High accuracy : The Cypher pattern, using Fibonacci ratios and geometric analysis, provides high precision in identifying reversal points.
Applicable in various markets : This pattern can be used in a wide range of financial markets, including forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies.
Disadvantages :
Rarit y: The Cypher pattern appears less frequently on charts compared to other harmonic patterns.
Complexity : Accurately identifying this pattern requires significant experience, which may be challenging for novice traders.
🔵 Setting
🟣 Logical Setting

Message Frequency : This string parameter defines the announcement frequency. Choices include: "All" (activates the alert every time the function is called), "Once Per Bar" (activates the alert only on the first call within the bar), and "Once Per Bar Close" (the alert is activated only by a call at the last script execution of the real-time bar upon closing). The default setting is "Once per Bar".
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : The date, hour, and minute you receive in alert messages can be based on any time zone you choose. For example, if you want New York time, you should enter "UTC-4". This input is set to the time zone "UTC" by default.
🔵 Conclusion
The Cypher harmonic pattern is one of the most powerful and accurate patterns used in technical analysis. Its high precision in identifying price reversal points, particularly within the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ), has made it a popular tool among professional traders. The PRZ, located between the Fibonacci ratios of 0.768 and 0.886 in the XD region, offers traders a clear indication of where price reversals are likely to occur.
However, to use this pattern successfully, traders must employ proper risk management and combine it with supplementary tools like technical indicators and price action. By understanding how to utilize the PRZ, traders can enhance the accuracy of their trade entries and exits.
Ultimately, the Cypher pattern, when used in conjunction with the PRZ, helps traders make more precise decisions in the financial markets, leading to more successful and well-informed trades.
Dynamic Sentiment RSI [UAlgo]The Dynamic Sentiment RSI is a technical analysis tool that combines the classic RSI (Relative Strength Index) concept with dynamic sentiment analysis, offering traders enhanced insights into market conditions. Unlike the traditional RSI, this indicator integrates volume weighting, sentiment factors, and smoothing features to provide a more nuanced view of momentum and potential market reversals. It is designed to assist traders in detecting overbought/oversold conditions, momentum shifts, and to generate potential buy or sell signals using crossover and crossunder techniques. By dynamically adjusting based on sentiment and volume factors, this RSI offers better adaptability to varying market conditions, making it suitable for different trading styles and timeframes.
This tool is particularly helpful for traders who wish to explore not only price movement but also the underlying market sentiment, offering a more comprehensive approach to momentum analysis. The sentiment factor amplifies the RSI's sensitivity to price shifts, making it easier to detect early signals of market reversals or the continuation of a trend.
🔶 Key Features
Dynamic Sentiment Calculation: The indicator incorporates a "Sentiment Factor" that adjusts the RSI length dynamically based on a multiplier, helping traders better understand market sentiment at different time intervals.
Volume Weighting: When enabled, the RSI calculations are weighted by volume, allowing traders to give more importance to price movements with higher trading volume, which may provide more accurate signals.
Smoothing Feature: A customizable smoothing period is applied to the RSI to help filter out noise and make the signal smoother. This feature is particularly useful for traders who prefer to focus on long-term trends while minimizing false signals.
Step Size Customization: A "Step Size" input allows users to round the sentiment RSI to predefined intervals, making the results easier to interpret and act upon. This feature allows you to focus on significant sentiment changes and ignore minor fluctuations.
Crossover/Crossunder Alerts: The indicator includes crossover and crossunder signals on the zero-line, helping traders identify potential buy and sell opportunities as the smoothed RSI crosses these levels.
The indicator offers a clear visual display with multiple color-coded lines and areas:
Sentiment RSI: Plotted as an area chart, color-coded based on sentiment strength.
Raw RSI: A purple line representing the raw adjusted RSI.
Smoothed RSI: A dynamic line, color-coded aqua or orange based on its position relative to the zero line.
Buy/Sell Signals: Triangle shapes are plotted at crossovers and crossunders, providing clear entry and exit points.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Sentiment RSI
-This line represents the sentiment-adjusted RSI, where the higher the value, the stronger the bullish sentiment, and the lower the value, the stronger the bearish sentiment. It is rounded to step intervals, making it easier to detect significant shifts in sentiment.
- A positive sentiment RSI (above 0) suggests bullish market conditions, while a negative sentiment RSI (below 0) suggests bearish conditions.
Smoothed RSI
The smoothed RSI helps reduce noise and shows the trend more clearly.
Crossovers of the zero line are significant:
- Crossover above zero: Indicates that bullish momentum is building, potentially signaling a buying opportunity.
- Crossunder below zero: Signals a shift towards bearish momentum, potentially indicating a sell signal.
Traders should look for these crossovers in conjunction with other signals for more accurate entry/exit points.
Raw RSI (Adjusted)
The raw adjusted RSI offers a less smoothed, more responsive version of the RSI. While it may be noisier, it provides early signals of market reversals and trends.
Crossover/Crossunder Signals
- When the smoothed RSI crosses above the zero line, a "Signal Up" triangle appears, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
- When the smoothed RSI crosses below the zero line, a "Signal Down" triangle appears, signaling a potential sell opportunity.
These signals help traders time their entries and exits by identifying momentum shifts.
Volume Weighting (Optional)
- If volume weighting is enabled, the RSI will give more weight to periods of higher trading volume, making the signals more reliable when the market is highly active.
Strong Up/Down Levels (40/-40)
- These dotted lines represent extreme sentiment levels. When the sentiment RSI reaches 40 or -40, the market may be nearing an overbought or oversold condition, respectively. This could be a signal for traders to prepare for potential reversals or shifts in momentum.
By combining the various components of this indicator, traders can gain a comprehensive view of market sentiment and price action, helping them make more informed trading decisions. The combination of sentiment factors, volume weighting, and smoothing makes this indicator highly flexible and suitable for a variety of trading strategies.

RSI (Kernel Optimized) | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new KDE Optimized RSI Indicator! This indicator adds a new aspect to the well-known RSI indicator, with the help of the KDE (Kernel Density Estimation) algorithm, estimates the probability of a candlestick will be a pivot or not. For more information about the process, please check the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Features of the new KDE Optimized RSI Indicator :
A New Approach To Pivot Detection
Customizable KDE Algorithm
Realtime RSI & KDE Dashboard
Alerts For Possible Pivots
Customizable Visuals
❓ HOW TO INTERPRET THE KDE %
The KDE % is a critical metric that reflects how closely the current RSI aligns with the KDE (Kernel Density Estimation) array. In simple terms, it represents the likelihood that the current candlestick is forming a pivot point based on historical data patterns. a low percentage suggests a lower probability of the current candlestick being a pivot point. In these cases, price action is less likely to reverse, and existing trends may continue. At moderate levels, the possibility of a pivot increases, indicating potential trend shifts or consolidations.Traders should start monitoring closely for confirmation signals. An even higher KDE % suggests a strong likelihood that the current candlestick could form a pivot point, which could lead to a reversal or significant price movement. These points often align with overbought or oversold conditions in traditional RSI analysis, making them key moments for potential trade entry or exit.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The RSI (Relative Strength Index) is a widely used oscillator among traders. It outputs a value between 0 - 100 and gives a glimpse about the current momentum of the price action. This indicator then calculates the RSI for each candlesticks, and saves them into an array if the candlestick is a pivot. The low & high pivot RSIs' are inserted into two different arrays. Then the a KDE array is calculated for both of the low & high pivot RSI arrays. Explaining the KDE might be too much for this write-up, but for a brief explanation, here are the steps :
1. Define the necessary options for the KDE function. These are : Bandwidth & Nº Steps, Array Range (Array Max - Array Min)
2. After that, create a density range array. The array has (steps * 2 - 1) elements and they are calculated by (arrMin + i * stepCount), i being the index.
3. Then, define a kernel function. This indicator has 3 different kernel distribution modes : Uniform, Gaussian and Sigmoid
4. Then, define a temporary value for the current element of KDE array.
5. For each element E in the pivot RSI array, add "kernel(densityRange.get(i) - E, 1.0 / bandwidth)" to the temporary value.
6. Add 1.0 / arrSize * to the KDE array.
Then the prefix sum array of the KDE array is calculated. For each candlestick, the index closest to it's RSI value in the KDE array is found using binary search. Then for the low pivot KDE calculation, the sum of KDE values from found index to max index is calculated. For the high pivot KDE, the sum of 0 to found index is used. Then if high or low KDE value is greater than the activation threshold determined in the settings, a bearish or bullish arrow is plotted after bar confirmation respectively. The arrows are drawn as long as the KDE value of current candlestick is greater than the threshold. When the KDE value is out of the threshold, a less transparent arrow is drawn, indicating a possible pivot point.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
This indicator combines RSI & KDE Algorithm to get a foresight of possible pivot points. Pivot points are important entry, confirmation and exit points for traders. But to their nature, they can be only detected after more candlesticks are rendered after them. The purpose of this indicator is to alert the traders of possible pivot points using KDE algorithm right away when they are confirmed. The indicator also has a dashboard for realtime view of the current RSI & Bullish or Bearish KDE value. You can fully customize the KDE algorithm and set up alerts for pivot detection.

Birdies [LuxAlgo]The Birdies indicator uses a unique technique to provide support/resistance curves based on a circle connecting the last swing high/low.
A specific, customizable part of this circle acts as a curve of interest, which can trigger visual breakout signals.
🔶 USAGE
The script projects a bird-like pattern when a valid Swing point is found. Multiple customization options are included.
🔹 Trend & Support/Resistance Tool
The color fill patterns and the wing boundaries can give insights into the current trend direction as well as serve as potential support/resistance areas.
In the example above, "Birdies" coincide with pullback and support/resistance zones.
🔹 Swing Length & Buffer
Besides the "Swing Length", with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels, the script's behavior can be fine-tuned with filters ("Settings" - "Validation").
🔹 Validation
To minimize clutter, three filters are included:
Minimum X-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Minimum Y-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Buffer (Multiple of ATR)
The "Minimum X/Y-Distance" creates a zone where a new Swing is considered invalid. Only when the Swing is out of the zone, can it be considered valid.
In other words, in the example above, a Swing High can only be valid when enough bars/time have passed, and the difference between the last Swing and the previous is more than the ATR multiplied by the "Minimum Y-Distance" factor.
The "Buffer" creates a line above/below the "Birdy", derived from the measured ATR at the conception of the "Birdy" multiplied with a factor ("Buffer").
When the closing price crosses the "Birdy", it must also surpass this buffer line to produce a valid signal, lowering the risk of clutter as a result.
🔶 DETAILS
Birdies are derived from a circle that connects two Swing points. The left-wing curve originates from the most recent "Swing point" to the last value on the circle before crossing its midline. The mirror image of the left wing creates the right wing.
Enabling "Origine" will draw a line from the last Swing to the first.
🔹 Style
The publication includes a style setting with four options.
The first, "Birdy," shows a bird-like shape derived from a circle connecting the last Swing High and Swing Low.
The second option holds everything from the first option but connects both wingtips, providing potential horizontal levels of interest.
When setting "Birdy" to "None", the visual breakout signals will not defer from previous settings, but the focus is shifted towards the fill color, which can help detect potential trend shift.
A fourth setting, "Left Wing", will only show the left part of the "Birdy" pattern, removing the right part from the equation. This will change the visual breakout signals, providing alternative signals.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: The period used for swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
🔹 Validation
Minimum X-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Minimum Y-Distance: The minimum amount of bars between subsequent Swings
Buffer (Multiple of ATR)
🔹 Style
Bullish Patterns: Enable / color
Bearish Patterns: Enable / color
Buffer Zone: Show / Color
Color Fill: Show color fill between two Birdies (if available)
Origine: Show the line between both Swing Points
🔹 Calculation
Calculated Bars: Allows the usage of fewer bars for performance/speed improvement
Volatility Trend Bands [UAlgo]The Volatility Trend Bands is a trend-following indicator that combines the concepts of volatility and trend detection. Built using the Average True Range (ATR) to measure volatility, this indicator dynamically adjusts upper and lower bands around price movements. The bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, making it easier to identify trend shifts and potential entry and exit points.
With the ATR multiplier, this indicator effectively captures volatility-based shifts in the market. The use of midline values allows for accurate trend detection, which is displayed through color-coded signals on the chart. Additionally, this tool provides clear buy and sell signals, accompanied by intuitive graphical markers for ease of use.
The Volatility Trend Bands is ideal for traders seeking an adaptive trend-following method that responds to changing market conditions while maintaining robust volatility control.
🔶 Key Features
Dynamic Support and Resistance: The indicator utilizes volatility to create dynamic bands. The upper band acts as resistance, and the lower band acts as support for the price. Wider bands indicate higher volatility, while narrower bands indicate lower volatility.
Customizable Inputs
You can tailor the indicator to your strategy by adjusting the:
Price Source: Select the price data (e.g., closing price) used for calculations.
ATR Length: Define the lookback period for the Average True Range (ATR) volatility measure.
ATR Multiplier: This factor controls the width of the volatility bands relative to the ATR value.
Color Options: Choose colors for the bands and signal arrows for better visualization.
Visual Signals: Arrows ("▲" for buy, "▼" for sell) appear on the chart when the trend changes, providing clear entry point indications.
Alerts: Integrated alerts for both buy and sell conditions, allowing you to receive notifications for potential trade opportunities.
🔶 Interpreting Indicator
Upper and Lower Bands: The upper and lower bands are dynamic, adjusting based on market volatility using the ATR. These bands serve as adaptive support and resistance levels. When price breaks above the upper band, it indicates a potential bullish breakout, signaling a strong uptrend. Conversely, a break below the lower band signals a bearish breakout, indicating a downtrend.
Buy/Sell Signals: The indicator provides clear buy and sell signals at breakout points. A buy signal ("▲") is generated when the price breaks above the upper band, suggesting the start of a bullish trend. A sell signal ("▼") is triggered when the price breaks below the lower band, indicating the beginning of a bearish trend. These signals help traders identify potential entry and exit points at key breakout levels.
Color-Coded Bars: The bars on the chart change color based on the trend direction. Teal bars represent bullish momentum, while purple bars signify bearish momentum. This color coding provides a quick visual cue about the market's current direction.

Smart Signals Assistant [AlgoAlpha]Introduction
The Smart Signals Assistant, developed by AlgoAlpha, is a robust trading tool designed to empower traders of all levels with a flexible, customizable overlay indicator. Built on proprietary logic, this tool can integrate seamlessly with other indicators or be used as a standalone tool and offers powerful market insights, enabling users to tailor their trading strategy by combining different components for unique strategies. Whether you focus on trend-following or mean-reversion strategies, the Smart Signals Assistant is optimized to support you across various market conditions.
Core Features
1. Trend Cipher Component (Trend Identification and Bar Coloring):
The Trend Cipher is the core feature of the Smart Signals Assistant. It offers an intuitive method to detect trends by displaying clear visual signals, such as arrows ("▲" for bullish trends and "▼" for bearish trends). Additionally, signal strength indications are also included where the arrows will have a '+' sign to signify a strong trend, a strong signal is determined when the volatility of prices are increasing. the candlesticks are color-coded to reflect market conditions—green for bullish, red for bearish, and gray when the market is ranging, ranging markets are marked when the prices end up retracing in the opposite direction after a signal is sent, indicating that buyers/sellers are not ready to continue the trend yet. These added layers of confluence allows users to judge if signals provided by the Trend Cipher are high probability signals.
- Exit Signals : "X" marks indicate potential take-profit points when momentum is waning. Users can set a maximum number of exit signals, allowing for greater control over trade management and predictable exit strategies.
- Customization : Users can adjust the period length for the Trend Cipher to suit different market conditions and strategies. For example, a shorter period is more sensitive and responsive to quick shifts in trends, while a longer period offers more stable signals for long-term traders.(longer periods shown below)
2. Trend Bias Component (Long-term Trend Filter and Confirmation):
The Trend Bias acts as a trend confirmation tool. It comes in the form of a smooth band that reflects the central tendency of price movements. It provides a more comprehensive view of whether the price is trend up or down, as well as whether the price is trending strongly or not. It does so by checking if the current momentum of price is stronger relative to the average momentum over a period of time.
As mentioned earlier, the Trend Bias can also act as a marker of central tendency, meaning that users can use the Trend Bias as a dynamic take-profit zone when executing reversal trades.
- When aligned with the Trend Cipher, the Trend Bias helps traders differentiate between strong and weak trends. Bright colors signify a robust trend, while subdued colors signal weakening momentum. This helps users avoid false signals and enter high-probability trades.
3. Fair Value Trail (Entry Optimization):
The Fair Value Trail is a zone-based component that helps users capture optimal entry points, such as when the market is overbought or oversold. By waiting for price retracements into the Fair Value Trail, traders can achieve better pricing and potentially maximize their profits. The Fair Value Trail is unique in the sense that it dynamically adjusts its width according to the market volatility so that the optimal entry area remains as relevant.
- This feature works in conjunction with the Trend Cipher by allowing users to wait for retracement before entering the trade, thus improving their risk-reward ratio.
4. Trend Spine (Range Detection and Filter):
The Trend Spine helps identify periods of price consolidation by flattening the price action into a rigid line. This helps traders avoid entering trades in choppy or directionless markets. The Trend Spine’s values remain unchanged during consolidations, alerting users when to refrain from trading due to a lack of trend direction.
- This feature integrates with other components, providing clearer signals for trading in trending markets while filtering out trades in ranging or consolidating markets.
5. Firmament Cloud (Reversal Zones):
The Firmament Cloud defines zones on the price chart that are considered extreme, indicating overbought or oversold conditions. Price reaching these zones suggests potential reversal points, giving traders additional confirmation to enter or exit trades. The separation of the upper and lower clouds as well of the width of each respective cloud are dynamically adjusted based on the aggressiveness of price movements coupled with user defined settings for some base parameters such as multipliers for separation and width.
- This component works well for traders using a mean-reversion strategy or those looking for early exits during overextended price movements.
Usage and Customization
The Smart Signals Assistant offers a flexible interface, making it simple to adjust settings such as indicator lengths, noise reduction factors, and display options. Key components, such as the Trend Cipher, Trend Bias, and Fair Value Trail, are highly customizable, allowing traders to create a unique trading system tailored to their specific needs. Tooltips accompany most inputs to help users quickly understand how to adjust the tool effectively.
Combining Components for Synergy
1. Trend Cipher and Trend Bias:
By combining the Trend Cipher with the Trend Bias, users receive both short-term and long-term trend confirmations. A bullish signal from the Trend Cipher, when aligned with an upward-trending Trend Bias, significantly enhances the likelihood of a profitable trade, minimizing the chances of acting on premature signals.
2. Fair Value Trail for Entry Optimization:
Rather than immediately acting on a Trend Cipher signal, users can wait for the price to enter the Fair Value Trail. This strategy ensures better entries at premium or discounted prices, maximizing potential returns.
3. Trend Spine for Range Detection:
The Trend Spine works alongside the Trend Cipher to keep traders out of consolidating markets. When the Trend Spine remains flat, it signals a ranging market, advising users to avoid trades during such periods.
4. Firmament Cloud for Reversal Points:
The Firmament Cloud identifies extreme market conditions, marking zones where traders should be cautious about entering trades. When combined with Trend Cipher signals, this component helps users pinpoint overbought or oversold markets, allowing for strategic entries and exits.
Conclusion
The Smart Signals Assistant is more than just a collection of individual indicators. It offers a comprehensive, multi-layered system that provides a deeper understanding of market dynamics, ranging from trend detection to reversal opportunities. The flexibility in customizing its various components allows traders to craft a strategy suited to their style, whether they prefer trend-following or mean-reversion methods. With this tool, traders can enhance decision-making, optimize entries and exits, and navigate both trending and ranging markets more effectively.
MeanRevert Matrix [StabTrading]MeanRevert Matrix is a sophisticated trading tool designed to detect when prices significantly deviate from their historical averages, signalling potential market trends and reversals.
Leveraging complex algorithms that incorporate human emotions and mean reversion theory, this indicator is the first stage in a comprehensive system for identifying market entry points. Its versatility allows it to be applied across all charts and timeframes, providing traders with clear visual cues for trend analysis and decision-making.
This indicator is purposefully straightforward, allowing traders to observe how the different algorithms work in confluence. The MeanRevert Matrix can be customized to fit individual trading styles, particularly in terms of aggressiveness, making it adaptable to various market conditions. Working in tandem with the FloWave Oscillator, it offers an additional layer of confluence, ensuring that trading signals are more reliable.
💡 Features
Reversal Zones - These zones are integral to the MeanRevert Matrix, highlighting areas where trader emotions and money flow suggest potential longer-term reversals. The lighter shaded zones indicate early-stage reversals, while darker shades signal stronger reversal potential. This feature is designed to help traders anticipate market shifts and prepare for them accordingly.
Localized Mean Reversion Signals - These signals are triggered when the price deviates significantly from the mean, unaffected by longer-term price movements. This localized algorithm helps traders focus on short-term market fluctuations without being influenced by broader trends.
Yellow Signals - These signals identify isolated overbought or oversold conditions. While they often indicate reversal points, they can also signal the beginning of accelerated buying or selling, giving traders early warning of potential market shifts.
Trading Style Customization - The MeanRevert Matrix allows traders to tailor their strategy by adjusting the indicator’s aggressiveness. A more aggressive setting will produce more frequent reversal signals, offering flexibility based on the trader’s risk tolerance and market outlook.
Noise Eliminator - This feature helps traders filter out market noise or manipulation by increasing the noise value. By removing unwanted or misleading signals, it ensures that traders are acting on the most reliable data.
📈 Implementing the System
Step 1 - Begin by observing the localized blue trend to identify reversal points below the mean. Green or red signals within this trend indicate that the price remains within the current market parameters, suggesting that a reversal may occur more quickly. Yellow signals, however, indicate that the trend is likely to continue, so it’s advisable to wait for clearer reversal zones to develop. To avoid misleading signals, consider using higher noise values.
Step 2 - Wait for the reversal zone algorithm to indicate a potential market reversal by showing either light or dark red/green colour. A lighter zone suggests that the overall trend is beginning to reverse, while a darker zone indicates a higher likelihood of reversal.
Step 3 - Once a reversal zone is identified, monitor the trend line for signals that the price is moving significantly away from the mean. This indicates a strong localized price movement that is poised for a reversal. At this stage, you can reduce the noise value and increase the aggressiveness of the trading style to capture more reversal signals.
🛠️ Usage/Practice
In the example above, the indicator is set with neutral aggression for buy signals and lower aggression for sell signals, reflecting the current bull market cycle
Red Reversal Zone - A bearish reversal zone emerges, followed by a darker bearish zone, indicating an increased probability of a trend reversal. The red signals show price reversion from the localized mean, but the absence of yellow signals suggests the reversion isn't abnormally aggressive, making this a good area to consider a short position.
Strong Reversal Opportunity - Similar to point 1, but this time a green signal appears within the bullish dark green zone, highlighting a strong reversal potential. Subsequent red signals suggest opportunities to take profits as the trend faces resistance.
Opportunity to Strengthen Long Position - Once again, the indicator shows a bullish reversal zone without yellow signals. This suggests an area of increased resistance at this price point, offering traders another chance to increase their long positions before the market enters the long bull cycle.
Excessive Buying Pressure - The price has deviated significantly from the mean, triggering a yellow signal. This indicates excessive buying pressure, suggesting the trend is likely to continue upward. Although not an immediate bearish area, the red sell signals suggest it could be a time to conservatively take partial profits.
Trend Weakening - As the trend slows down, bearish zones appear, indicating potential reversal points. As the market shows signs of losing upward momentum, this suggests an opportunity to reduce their long exposure or enter a short trade and take advantage of the correction in the bull cycle.
Potential for Additional Long Position - Despite the earlier sell signals, the overall uptrend remains strong. This presents an opportunity either to add to the long position or to take profits from a previous sell position. The strength of the upward trend suggests that the market may continue higher.
Abnormal Upward Momentum - Similar to points 4 and 5, the yellow signals indicate abnormal price action with aggressive upward momentum. As the trend corrects to a normal range, the price hitting a resistance level is confirmed by the appearance of red reversal zones, suggesting a potential pullback.
Sideways Market Signals - In a sideways market, the indicator shows signals that remain within the normal mean reversion range. These signals are not abnormal and suggest potential entry points for trades within a sideways market, indicating periods where the market lacks strong directional momentum.
🔶 Conclusion
With its seamless integration into various charts and timeframes, the MeanRevert Matrix stands as a reliable and adaptable tool, essential for navigating the complexities of modern markets. By following the implementation guidelines and leveraging its features, traders have the potential to effectively anticipate market movements and optimize their entry and exit points.
We developed this indicator to help traders enhance their understanding of market trends and achieve their trading objectives with greater precision.
FloWave Oscillator [StabTrading]The FloWave Oscillator is a powerful trading tool designed to identify market trends and reversals by analysing reversal zones based on momentum and fear algorithms.
Serving as the first stage in a comprehensive trading system, it is intentionally straightforward, allowing traders to clearly see potential entry points across all charts and timeframes.
By inputting their own market sentiment, traders can customize the algorithm to align with their trading style. This flexibility helps traders navigate complex market environments with greater precision, whether they are seeking to capitalize on short-term opportunities or ride longer-term trends.
💡 Features
Reversal Zones - The FloWave Oscillator identifies key reversal zones driven by momentum and fear dynamics. Lighter green zones signal the initial stages of a potential reversal, while darker green zones indicate that a trend flip is imminent.
Trading Style Customization - The indicator allows traders to adjust their trading style with sensitivity settings ranging from Very Aggressive to Very Conservative. This flexibility lets traders tailor the indicator to their preferred time horizon—whether they seek to scalp short-term opportunities or capture long-term reversals.
🔥 Sensitivity Settings
Very Aggressive/Aggressive - These settings increase the indicator's sensitivity, generating more frequent signals, ideal for traders focused on short-term gains or those navigating choppy markets.
Neutral - Offers a balanced approach, combining both aggressive and conservative elements. It's a starting point for traders to evaluate performance before adjusting to more specific styles.
Conservative/Very Conservative - These settings reduce signal frequency, focusing on stronger, more reliable reversals. Best suited for long-term traders aiming to minimize risk and avoid premature market entries or exits.
🛠️ Usage/Practice
In the above example we’ll analysis how the indicator accurately predicts both the tops and bottoms of a market cycle.
Top of the Bull Market - The trendline initially shows two light red reversal zones, signalling a potential weakening in the upward momentum. As the trend progresses, a dark red zone emerges, confirming that a more substantial trend reversal to the downside is likely. This sequence provides an early warning, allowing traders to prepare for a possible market shift.
First Bull Signal - In the following phase, the indicator mirrors the previous action but in the opposite direction, identifying a reversal towards the upside. This behaviour demonstrates the indicator's ability to adapt to changing market conditions.
Bottom of the Bear Market - As the market continues its downward trajectory, the indicator presents two dark green reversal zones, highlighting areas where the selling pressure may be easing. These dark green zones offer three distinct opportunities to dollar-cost average (DCA) into the asset, allowing traders to build or enhance their positions during the end of the bear cycle. The indicator’s sensitivity in this phase ensures that traders can navigate the bearish market with confidence.
Continuation of Bull Cycle - In this segment, the indicator does not display any dark green reversal zones, implying that the uptrend remains robust. The absence of these zones suggests that the upward momentum is likely to continue, providing traders with another opportunity to add to their long positions. This scenario underscores the indicator’s capacity to identify when a trend is strong enough to warrant additional investment.
Potential Correction in an Uptrend - A light red zone appears, signalling a possible correction within the ongoing uptrend. However, the absence of a dark red zone indicates that the correction may be minor and that the overall trend is still upward. Traders might view this as a conservative point to take some profits off the table, managing risk while staying aligned with the broader bull market.
Bearish Signal - Eventually, a dark red reversal zone emerges, indicating that the trend has lost its upward momentum. This signal serves as a strong indicator that the uptrend may be concluding, prompting traders to consider exiting their positions or taking a more defensive stance. As the market enters a sideways phase, the trader can switch to a more aggressive trading style, seeking opportunities to scalp within the range while navigating the flat market conditions.
In this example, we demonstrate how to identify scalp trading opportunities by combining the Very Conservative and Very Aggressive settings. The key strategy is to use the Very Conservative trend to confirm the validity of reversal zones identified by the Very Aggressive setting.
The VC trend doesn’t indicate a buy reversal zone, but it shows an upward divergence. This suggests that the reversal buy zone on the VA chart is a potential entry point due to the supportive VC trend.
Multiple sell zones appear on the VA chart, but the VC trend shows a strong and steady uptrend. This suggests that we should wait for confirmation from the VC trend before considering a sell position, as the market is still moving upward strongly.
The VA chart shows several buy zones, but the VC trend indicates a strong downtrend, and no buy zone appears on the conservative setting. This suggests waiting for the next VA buy zone, confirmed by an upward divergence on the VC trend, before entering a trade.
Similar to Point 3 but in the opposite direction, the VA chart shows sell zones, but the VC trend indicates caution. The strategy would be to wait for confirmation from the VC trend before making a move.
🔶Conclusion
When used in conjunction with other indicators like the MeanRevert Matrix, the FloWave Oscillator becomes an integral part of a comprehensive trading system. It helps traders make informed decisions by providing clear signals that are aligned with the current market sentiment and broader economic trends. By following the implementation guidelines and adjusting the indicator settings as market conditions change, traders can effectively enhance their trading performance.
Adaptive RSI-Stoch with Butterworth Filter [UAlgo]The Adaptive RSI-Stoch with Butterworth Filter is a technical indicator designed to combine the strengths of the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Stochastic Oscillator, and a Butterworth Filter to provide a smooth and adaptive momentum-based trading signal. This custom-built indicator leverages the RSI to measure market momentum, applies Stochastic calculations for overbought/oversold conditions, and incorporates a Butterworth Filter to reduce noise and smooth out price movements for enhanced signal reliability.
By utilizing these combined methods, this indicator aims to help traders identify potential market reversal points, momentum shifts, and overbought/oversold conditions with greater precision, while minimizing false signals in volatile markets.
🔶 Key Features
Adaptive RSI and Stochastic Oscillator: Calculates RSI using a configurable period and applies a dual-smoothing mechanism with Stochastic Oscillator values (K and D lines).
Helps in identifying momentum strength and potential trend reversals.
Butterworth Filter: An advanced signal processing filter that reduces noise and smooths out the indicator values for better trend identification.
The filter can be enabled or disabled based on user preferences.
Customizable Parameters: Flexibility to adjust the length of RSI, the smoothing factors for Stochastic (K and D values), and the Butterworth Filter period.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
RSI & Stochastic Calculations:
The RSI is calculated based on the closing price over the user-defined period, and further smoothed to generate Stochastic Oscillator values.
The K and D values of the Stochastic Oscillator provide insights into short-term overbought or oversold conditions.
Butterworth Filter Application:
What is Butterworth Filter and How It Works?
The Butterworth Filter is a type of signal processing filter that is designed to have a maximally flat frequency response in the passband, meaning it doesn’t distort the frequency components of the signal within the desired range. It is widely used in digital signal processing and technical analysis to smooth noisy data while preserving the important trends in the underlying data. In this indicator, the Butterworth Filter is applied to the trigger value, making the resulting signal smoother and more stable by filtering out short-term fluctuations or noise in price data.
Key Concepts Behind the Butterworth Filter:
Filter Design: The Butterworth filter works by calculating weighted averages of current and past inputs (price or indicator values) and outputs to produce a smooth output. It is characterized by the absence of ripple in the passband and a smooth roll-off after the cutoff frequency.
Cutoff Frequency: The period specified in the indicator acts as a control for the cutoff frequency. A higher period means the filter will remove more high-frequency noise and retain longer-term trends, while a lower period means it will respond more to short-term fluctuations in the data.
Smoothing Process: In this script, the Butterworth Filter is calculated recursively using the following formula,
butterworth_filter(series float input, int period) =>
float wc = math.tan(math.pi / period)
float k1 = 1.414 * wc
float k2 = wc * wc
float a0 = k2 / (1 + k1 + k2)
float a1 = 2 * a0
float a2 = a0
float b1 = 2 * (k2 - 1) / (1 + k1 + k2)
float b2 = (1 - k1 + k2) / (1 + k1 + k2)
wc: This is the angular frequency, derived from the period input.
k1 and k2: These are intermediate coefficients used in the filter calculation.
a0, a1, a2: These are the feedforward coefficients, which determine how much of the current and past input values will contribute to the filtered output.
b1, b2: These are feedback coefficients, which determine how much of the past output values will contribute to the current output, effectively allowing the filter to "remember" past behavior and smooth the signal.
Recursive Calculation: The filter operates by taking into account not only the current input value but also the previous two input values and the previous two output values. This recursive nature helps it smooth the signal by blending the recent past data with the current data.
float filtered_value = a0 * input + a1 * prev_input1 + a2 * prev_input2
filtered_value -= b1 * prev_output1 + b2 * prev_output2
input: The current input value, which could be the trigger value in this case.
prev_input1, prev_input2: The previous two input values.
prev_output1, prev_output2: The previous two output values.
This means the current filtered value is determined by the combination of:
A weighted sum of the current input and the last two inputs.
A correction based on the last two output values to ensure smoothness and remove noise.
In conclusion when filter is enabled, the Butterworth Filter smooths the RSI and Stochastic values to reduce market noise and highlight significant momentum shifts.
The filtered trigger value (post-Butterworth) provides a cleaner representation of the market's momentum.
Cross Signals for Trade Entries:
Buy Signal: A bullish crossover of the K value above the D value, particularly when the values are below 40 and when the Stochastic trigger is below 1 and the filtered trigger is below 35.
Sell Signal: A bearish crossunder of the K value below the D value, particularly when the values are above 60 and when the Stochastic trigger is above 99 and the filtered trigger is above 90.
These signals are plotted visually on the chart for easy identification of potential trading opportunities.
Overbought and Oversold Zones:
The indicator highlights the overbought zone when the filtered trigger surpasses a specific threshold (typically above 100) and the oversold zone when it drops below 0.
The color-coded fill areas between the Stochastic and trigger lines help visualize when the market may be overbought (likely a reversal down) or oversold (potential reversal up).

Deep Crab Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Reversal Zones🔵 Introduction
The Deep Crab pattern is a 5-point extension harmonic structure (X-A-B-C-D) used in technical analysis to identify potential reversal points in financial markets. Like the original Crab pattern, it heavily relies on a 1.618 XA projection to form the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ).
However, the key difference lies in the B point, which must be an 0.886 retracement of the XA leg. The D point in this pattern typically extends beyond the X point, signaling a strong potential reversal in price movement.
Bullish Deep Crab :
The Bullish Deep Crab is a pattern used in technical analysis to spot potential trend reversals. It signals a shift from a downtrend to an uptrend. Traders enter a buy position at the D point and set a stop-loss below point X, anticipating a price increase.
Bearish Deep Crab :
The Bearish Deep Crab is a reversal pattern that indicates the potential end of an uptrend. Traders enter a sell position at point D and set a stop-loss above point X, expecting the price to fall afterward.
🟣 Crab Vs Deep Crab
The Crab and Deep Crab patterns are both used to identify reversal points in technical analysis, but they differ in terms of correction depth :
Crab : The B point retraces between 38.2% to 61.8% of the XA leg, and point D extends beyond X, indicating a price reversal after a smaller correction.
Deep Crab : The B point retraces more deeply, around 88.6% of the XA leg, and point D has a stronger extension, signaling a reversal after a deeper correction.
The Deep Crab is more suited for identifying stronger price movements.
🔵 How to Use
To effectively use the Deep Crab pattern, it’s essential to correctly identify its five key points (X, A, B, C, and D) based on Fibonacci retracements and extensions. Traders look for a deep retracement at point B, followed by an extended move to point D, which typically signals a strong price reversal.
Once these points are established, traders can strategically enter positions at point D with appropriate stop-loss and take-profit levels, capitalizing on the anticipated market reversal. Proper use of Fibonacci tools is crucial for accurate pattern identification.
🟣 Bullish Deep Crab
To use the Bullish Deep Crab pattern, a trader identifies point D as the key price reversal point in a downtrend. Using Fibonacci tools, points X, A, B, and C are identified, with point B showing an 88.6% retracement of XA, and CD extending 1.618% of XA.
The trader enters a buy position at point D and sets a stop-loss below X, expecting a reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend.
🟣 Bearish Deep Crab
In the Bearish Deep Crab pattern, point D acts as the reversal point in an uptrend. After identifying points X, A, B, and C, D extends 1.618% of XA. Point B retraces 88.6% of XA. Traders enter a sell position at point D and place a stop-loss above X, anticipating a drop in price.
🔵 Setting

Change in State of Delivery CISD ICT [TradingFinder] Liquidity 1🔵 Introduction
🟣 What is CISD ?
Change in State of Delivery (CISD) is a key concept in technical analysis, similar to Change of Character (ChoCh) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) in the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money trading styles. Like ChoCh and MSS, CISD helps traders identify critical changes in market structure and make timely entries into trades.
To determine the CISD Level, traders typically review the last 1 to 4 candles to identify the first positive or negative candle. The CISD Level is then set using the opening price of the next candle.
In this version of the indicator, support and resistance levels are defined based on liquidity, which includes patterns such as SFP (Swing Failure Pattern), fake breakout, and false breakout.
Bullish CISD :
Bearish CISD :
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Bullish CISD (Change in State of Delivery Upward)
In Bullish CISD, the trend shifts from bearish to bullish after the price hits a liquidity zone, typically indicated by patterns such as SFP, fake breakout, or false breakout.
The steps to identify Bullish CISD are as follow s:
Identify the liquidity zone (SFP, fake breakout).
Review the candles and find the first positive candle.
Set the CISD Level using the opening price of the next candle after the positive candle.
Confirm the change in state of delivery when the price closes above the CISD Level.
Enter the trade after CISD confirmation.
🟣 Bearish CISD (Change in State of Delivery Downward)
In Bearish CISD, the trader looks for a shift from a bullish to a bearish trend. This change typically occurs when the price hits a liquidity level, indicated by patterns such as SFP or false breakout.
The steps to identify Bearish CISD are :
Identify the liquidity zone.
Review the candles and find the first negative candle.
Set the CISD Level using the opening price of the next candle after the negative candle.
Confirm the change in state of delivery when the price closes below the CISD Level.
Enter a short trade after CISD confirmation.
🟣 CISD Compared to ChoCh and MSS (CISD Vs ChoCh/ MSS)
CISD, ChoCh, and MSS are all tools for identifying trend changes in the market, but they have some differences :
CISD: Focuses on a change in the state of delivery and uses liquidity patterns (SFP, fake breakout) and key candles to confirm trend reversals.
ChoCh: Identifies a change in the market’s character, often signaling rapid shifts in trend direction.
MSS: Focuses on changes in market structure and identifies the breaking of key levels as a signal of trend shifts.

This concept is similar to ChoCh and MSS but stands out with its focus on confirming trend changes through liquidity and specific patterns. With the right approach, CISD helps traders capitalize on market movements more effectively.
N Bar Reversal Detector [LuxAlgo]The N Bar Reversal Detector is designed to detect and highlight N-bar reversal patterns in user charts, where N represents the length of the candle sequence used to detect the patterns. The script incorporates various trend indicators to filter out detected signals and offers a range of customizable settings to fit different trading strategies.
🔶 USAGE
The N-bar reversal pattern extends the popular 3-bar reversal pattern. While the 3-bar reversal pattern involves identifying a sequence of three bars signaling a potential trend reversal, the N-bar reversal pattern builds on this concept by incorporating additional bars based on user settings. This provides a more comprehensive indication of potential trend reversals. The script automates the identification of these patterns and generates clear, visually distinct signals to highlight potential trend changes.
When a reversal chart pattern is confirmed and aligns with the price action, the pattern's boundaries are extended to create levels. The upper boundary serves as resistance, while the lower boundary acts as support.
The script allows users to filter patterns based on the trend direction identified by various trend indicators. Users can choose to view patterns that align with the detected trend or those that are contrary to it.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 The N-bar Reversal Pattern
The N-bar reversal pattern is a technical analysis tool designed to signal potential trend reversals in the market. It consists of N consecutive bars, with the first N-1 bars used to identify the prevailing trend and the Nth bar confirming the reversal. Here’s a detailed look at the pattern:
Bullish Reversal : In a bullish reversal setup, the first bar is the highest among the first N-1 bars, indicating a prevailing downtrend. Most of the remaining bars in this sequence should be bearish (closing lower than where they opened), reinforcing the existing downward momentum. The Nth (most recent) bar confirms a bullish reversal if its high price is higher than the high of the first bar in the sequence (standard pattern). For a stronger signal, the closing price of the Nth bar should also be higher than the high of the first bar.
Bearish Reversal : In a bearish reversal setup, the first bar is the lowest among the first N-1 bars, indicating a prevailing uptrend. Most of the remaining bars in this sequence should be bullish (closing higher than where they opened), reinforcing the existing upward momentum. The Nth bar confirms a bearish reversal if its low price is lower than the low of the first bar in the sequence (standard pattern). For a stronger signal, the closing price of the Nth bar should also be lower than the low of the first bar.
🔹 Min Percentage of Required Candles
This parameter specifies the minimum percentage of candles that must be bullish (for a bearish reversal) or bearish (for a bullish reversal) among the first N-1 candles in a pattern. For higher values of N, it becomes more challenging for all of the first N-1 candles to be consistently bullish or bearish. By setting a percentage value, P, users can adjust the requirement so that only a minimum of P percent of the first N-1 candles need to meet the bullish or bearish condition. This allows for greater flexibility in pattern recognition, accommodating variations in market conditions.
🔶 SETTINGS
Pattern Type: Users can choose the type of the N-bar reversal patterns to detect: Normal, Enhanced, or All. "Normal" detects patterns that do not necessarily surpass the high/low of the first bar. "Enhanced" detects patterns where the last bar surpasses the high/low of the first bar. "All" detects both Normal and Enhanced patterns.
Reversal Pattern Sequence Length: Specifies the number of candles (N) in the sequence used to identify a reversal pattern.
Min Percentage of Required Candles: Sets the minimum percentage of the first N-1 candles that must be bullish (for a bearish reversal) or bearish (for a bullish reversal) to qualify as a valid reversal pattern.
Derived Support and Resistance: Toggles the visibility of the support and resistance levels/zones.
🔹 Trend Filtering
Filtering: Allows users to filter patterns based on the trend indicators: Moving Average Cloud, Supertrend, and Donchian Channels. The "Aligned" option only detects patterns that align with the trend and conversely, the "Opposite" option detects patterns that go against the trend.
🔹 Trend Indicator Settings
Moving Average Cloud: Allows traders to choose the type of moving averages (SMA, EMA, HMA, etc.) and set the lengths for fast and slow moving averages.
Supertrend: Options to set the ATR length and factor for Supertrend.
Donchian Channels: Option to set the length for the channel calculation.

🔍 How It Works:
The Standardized PSAR Oscillator is an advanced trading tool that refines the traditional PSAR (Parabolic Stop and Reverse) indicator by incorporating several key enhancements to improve trend analysis and signal accuracy. The script begins by calculating the PSAR, a widely used indicator known for its effectiveness in identifying trend reversals. To make the PSAR more adaptive and responsive to market conditions, it is standardized using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the high-low range over a user-defined period. This standardization helps to normalize the PSAR values, making them more comparable across different market conditions.
To further enhance signal clarity, the standardized PSAR is then smoothed using a Weighted Moving Average (WMA). This combination of EMA and WMA creates an oscillator that not only captures trend direction but also smooths out market noise, providing a cleaner signal. The oscillator's values are color-coded to visually indicate its position relative to the zero line, with additional emphasis on whether the WMA is rising or falling—this helps traders quickly interpret the trend’s strength and direction.
The oscillator also includes built-in divergence detection by comparing pivot points in price action with those in the oscillator. This feature helps identify potential discrepancies between the price and the oscillator, signaling possible trend reversals. Alerts can be configured for when the oscillator crosses the zero line or when a trend shows signs of weakening, ensuring that traders receive timely notifications to act on emerging opportunities. These combined elements make the Standardized PSAR Oscillator a robust tool for enhancing your trading strategy with more reliable and actionable signals
Bat Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Bat Chart Indicator🔵 Introduction
The Bat Harmonic Pattern, created by Scott Carney in the 1990s, is a sophisticated tool in technical analysis, used to identify potential reversal points in price movements by leveraging Fibonacci ratios.
This pattern is classified into two primary types: the Bullish Bat Pattern, which signals the end of a downtrend and the beginning of an uptrend, and the Bearish Bat Pattern, which indicates the conclusion of an uptrend and the onset of a downtrend.
🟣 Bullish Bat Pattern
The Bullish Bat Pattern is designed to identify when a downtrend is likely to end and a new uptrend is about to begin. The key feature of this pattern is Point D, which typically aligns near the 88.6% Fibonacci retracement of the XA leg.
This point is considered a strong buy zone. When the price reaches Point D after a significant downtrend, it often indicates a potential reversal, presenting a buying opportunity for traders anticipating the start of an upward movement.
🟣 Bearish Bat Pattern
In contrast, the Bearish Bat Pattern forms when an uptrend is nearing its conclusion. Point D, which also typically aligns near the 88.6% Fibonacci retracement of the XA leg, serves as a critical point for traders.
This point is regarded as a strong sell zone, signaling that the uptrend may be ending, and a downtrend could be imminent. Traders often open short positions when they identify this pattern, aiming to capitalize on the anticipated downward movement.
🔵 How to Use
The Bat Pattern consists of five key points: X, A, B, C, and D, and four waves: XA, AB, BC, and CD. Fibonacci ratios play a crucial role in this pattern, helping traders pinpoint precise entry and exit points. In both the Bullish and Bearish Bat Patterns, the 88.6% retracement of the XA leg is a critical level for identifying potential reversal points.
🟣 Bullish Bat Pattern
Traders typically enter buy positions after Point D forms, expecting the downtrend to end and a new uptrend to start. This point, located near the 88.6% retracement of the XA leg, serves as a reliable buy signal.
🟣 Bearish Bat Pattern
Traders usually open short positions after identifying Point D, expecting the uptrend to end and a downtrend to begin. This point, also near the 88.6% retracement of the XA leg, acts as a valid sell signal.
🟣 Trading Tips for the Bat Pattern
Accurate Fibonacci Point Identification : Accurately identify Points X, A, B, C, and D, and calculate the Fibonacci ratios between these points. Point D should ideally be near the 88.6% retracement of the XA leg.
Signal Confirmation with Other Tools : To enhance the pattern's accuracy, avoid trading solely based on the Bat Pattern.
Risk Management : Always use stop-loss orders. In a Bullish Bat Pattern, place the stop-loss below Point X, and in a Bearish Bat Pattern, above Point X. This helps limit potential losses if the pattern fails.
Wait for Price Movement Confirmation : After identifying Point D, wait for the price to move in the anticipated direction to confirm the pattern's validity before entering a trade.
Set Realistic Profit Targets : Use Fibonacci retracement levels to set realistic profit targets, such as 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8% retracement levels of the CD leg. This strategy helps maximize profits and prevents premature exits.

How It Works
This indicator employs a K-means clustering algorithm to dynamically identify key price levels based on the historical price data within a specified lookback window. It starts by initializing three centroids based on the highest, lowest, and an average between the highest and lowest price over the lookback period. The algorithm then iterates through the price data to cluster the prices around these centroids, dynamically adjusting them until they stabilize, representing potential support and resistance levels. These levels are further confirmed based on a separate confirmation length parameter to identify "fixed" levels, which are then drawn as horizontal lines on the chart. The script continuously updates these levels as new data comes in, while also removing older levels to keep the chart clean and relevant, offering traders a clear and adaptive view of market structure.

Composite Z-Score with Linear Regression Bands [UAlgo]The Composite Z-Score with Linear Regression Bands is a technical indicator designed to provide traders with a comprehensive analysis of price momentum, volatility, and volume. By combining multiple moving averages with slope analysis, volume/volatility compression-expansion metrics, and Z-Score calculations, this indicator aims to highlight potential breakout and breakdown points with high accuracy. The inclusion of linear regression bands further enhances the analysis by providing dynamic support and resistance levels, which adapt to market conditions. This makes the indicator particularly useful in identifying overbought/oversold conditions, volume squeezes, and the overall direction of the trend.
🔶 Key Features
Multi-Length Slope Calculation: The indicator uses multiple Hull Moving Averages (HMA) across various lengths to calculate slope angles, which are then converted into Z-Scores. This helps in capturing both short-term and long-term price momentum.
Volume/Volatility Composite Analysis: By calculating a composite value derived from both volume and volatility, the indicator identifies periods of compression (squeezes) and expansion, which are crucial for detecting potential breakout opportunities.
Linear Regression Bands: The inclusion of dynamic linear regression bands provides traders with adaptive support and resistance levels. These bands are enhanced by the composite value, which adjusts the band width based on market conditions, offering a clearer view of possible price reversals.
Overbought/Oversold Detection: The indicator highlights overbought and oversold conditions by comparing Z-Scores against the upper and lower bounds of the regression bands, which can signal potential reversal points.
Customizable Inputs: Users can customize key parameters such as the lengths of the moving averages, the regression band period, and the number of deviations used for the bands, allowing for flexibility in adapting the indicator to different market environments.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Z-Score Plots: The individual Z-Score plots represent the normalized slope of the Hull Moving Averages over different periods. Positive values indicate upward momentum, while negative values suggest downward momentum. The combined Z-Sum provides a broader view of the overall market momentum.
Composite Value: The composite value is a ratio of volume to volatility, which highlights periods of market compression and expansion. When the composite value rises, it suggests increasing market activity, often preceding a breakout.
Why are we calculating values for multiple lengths?
The Composite Z-Score with Linear Regression Bands indicator employs a multi-timeframe analysis by calculating Z-scores for various moving average lengths. This approach provides a more comprehensive view of market dynamics and helps to identify trends and potential reversals across different timeframes. By considering multiple lengths, we can:
Capture a broader range of market behaviors: Different moving average lengths capture different aspects of price movement. Shorter lengths are more sensitive to recent price changes, while longer lengths provide a smoother representation of the underlying trend.
Reduce the impact of noise: By combining Z-scores from multiple lengths, we can help to filter out some of the noise that can be present in shorter-term data and obtain a more robust signal.
Enhance the reliability of signals: When Z-scores from multiple lengths align, it can increase the confidence in the identified trend or potential reversal. This can help to reduce the likelihood of false signals.
In essence, calculating values for multiple lengths allows the indicator to provide a more nuanced and reliable assessment of market conditions, making it a valuable tool for traders and analysts.
Linear Regression Bands: The central line represents the linear regression of the Z-Sum, while the upper and lower bands represent the dynamic resistance and support levels, respectively. The deviation from the regression line indicates the strength of the current trend. When price moves beyond these bands, it may signal an overbought (above upper band) or oversold (below lower band) condition.
Volume/Volatility Squeeze: When the price moves between the regression bands and the volume/volatility-adjusted bands, the market is in a squeeze. Breakouts from this squeeze can lead to significant price moves, which are indicated by the filling of areas between the Z-Score plots and the bands.
Color Interpretation: The indicator uses color changes to make it easier to interpret the data. Teal colors generally indicate upward momentum or strong conditions, while red suggests downward momentum or weakening conditions. The intensity of the color reflects the strength of the signal.
Overbought/Oversold Signals: The indicator marks potential overbought and oversold conditions when Z-Scores cross above or below the upper and lower regression bands, respectively. These signals are crucial for identifying potential reversal points in the market.

Shark Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Shark Detector Indicator🔵 Introduction
The Shark harmonic pattern, first introduced by Scott Carney in 2011, is a recognized tool in technical analysis. Since its inception, it has been widely adopted by traders as an essential market analysis tool.
Due to its complexity, the Shark pattern can be challenging for novice traders. Therefore, we have developed the Harmonic Pattern Indicator to help analysts and traders easily identify these patterns.
🟣 Understanding the Types of Shark Pattern
In technical analysis, the Shark harmonic pattern forms at the end of trends and is categorized into two types: Bullish and Bearish Shark Patterns.
Bullish Shark Pattern : This pattern appears at the end of a downtrend, indicating a potential reversal to an uptrend. Traders can use this pattern to identify buy entry points. The image below illustrates the core components of the Bullish Shark Pattern.
Bearish Shark Pattern : Conversely, the Bearish Shark Pattern forms at the end of an uptrend, signaling a possible reversal to a downtrend. This pattern prompts traders to shift their positions from buying to selling. The image below showcases the characteristics of the Bearish Shark Pattern.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Trading with the Bullish Shark Pattern
The Bullish Shark Pattern acts as a reversal pattern, helping traders identify the end of a downtrend and the beginning of an uptrend. It consists of five key points that indicate alternating bullish and bearish movements.
Upon the complete formation of this pattern, traders can look for opportunities to enter buy trades. To manage risk effectively, it is advisable to set a stop-loss below the lowest price point within the pattern.
🟣 Trading with the Bearish Shark Pattern
Similarly, the Bearish Shark Pattern functions as a reversal pattern but in the opposite direction. It helps traders identify the end of an uptrend and the onset of a downtrend.
After the pattern fully forms, traders can seek sell entry opportunities. As with the bullish pattern, placing a stop-loss above the highest price point within the pattern is recommended for risk management.
