Gold and Bitcoin: The Evolution of Value!The Eternal Luster of Gold
In the dawn of time, when the earth was young and rivers whispered secrets to the stones, a wanderer named Elara found a gleam in the silt of a sun-kissed stream. It was pure gold, radiant like a captured star fallen from the heavens. She held it in her palm, feeling its warmth pulse like a heartbeat, and in that moment, humanity’s soul awakened to the allure of eternity.
As seasons turned to centuries, gold wove itself into the story of empires. In ancient Egypt, pharaohs crowned themselves with its glow, believing it to be the flesh of gods. It built pyramids that reached for the sky and tombs that guarded kings forever. Across the sands in Mesopotamia, merchants traded it for spices and silks, its weight a promise of power and trust.
Translation moment: Gold became the first universal symbol of value. People trusted it more than words or promises because it did not rust, fade, or vanish.
The Greeks saw in gold not only wealth but wisdom, the symbol of the sun’s eternal fire. Alexander the Great carried it across the continent, forging an empire of golden threads. Rome rose on its back, minting coins whose clink echoed through history.
Through the ages, gold endured the rush of California’s dreamers, the halls of Versailles, and the quiet vaults of modern fortunes. It has been both a curse and a blessing, the fuel of wars and the gift of love, whispering of beauty’s fragility and the human desire for something that lasts beyond the grave. In its shine, we see ourselves fragile yet forever chasing light.
The Digital Dawn of Bitcoin
Centuries later, under the glow of computer screens, a visionary named Satoshi dreamed of a new gold born not from the earth but from the ether of ideas. Bitcoin appeared in 2009 amid a world weary of banks and broken trust.
Like gold’s ancient gleam, Bitcoin was mined not with picks but with puzzles solved by machines. It promised freedom, a currency without kings, flowing from person to person, unbound by borders or empires.
Translation moment: Bitcoin works like digital gold. Instead of digging the ground, miners use computers to solve problems and unlock new coins. No one controls it, and that is what makes it powerful.
Through doubt and frenzy, it rose as a beacon for those seeking sovereignty in a digital world. Its volatility became its soul, a reminder that true value is built on belief. Bitcoin speaks to ingenuity and rebellion, a star of code guiding us toward a future where wealth is weightless yet profoundly honest.
Gold’s Cycles: Echoes of War and Crisis
In the early 20th century, gold was held under fixed prices until the Great Depression of 1929 shattered these illusions. The 1934 dollar devaluation lifted it from 20.67 to 35, restoring faith amid despair. When World War II erupted in 1939, gold’s role as a refuge was muted by controls, yet it quietly held its place as the world’s silent guardian.
The 1970s awakened its wild spirit. The Nixon Shock of 1971 freed gold from 35, sparking a bull run during the 1973 Oil Crisis. The 1979 Iranian Revolution led to a 1980 peak of 850, a leap of more than 2,000 percent, as investors sought safety from the chaos.
Translation moment: When fear rises, people rush to gold. Every major war or economic crisis has sent gold upward because it feels safe when paper money loses trust.
The 1987 stock crash caused brief dips, but the 1990 Gulf War reignited its glow. Around 2000, after the Dot-com Bust, gold found new life, climbing from $ 270 to over $1,900 during the 2008 Financial Crisis. It dipped to 1050 in 2015, then surged again past 2000 during the 2020 pandemic.
The 2022 Ukraine War added another chapter with prices climbing above 2700 by 2025. Across a century of crises, gold has risen whenever fear tested humanity’s resolve, teaching patience and fortitude through its quiet endurance.
Bitcoin’s Cycles: Echoes of Innovation and Crisis
Born from the ashes of the 2008 Financial Crisis, Bitcoin began its story at mere cents. It traded below $1 until 2011, when it reached $30 before crashing by 90 percent following the MTGOX collapse.
In 2013, it soared to 1242 only to fall again to 200 in 2015 as regulations tightened. The 2017 bull run lifted it to nearly 20000 before another long winter brought it to 3200 in 2018. Each fall taught resilience, each rise renewed belief.
During the 2020 pandemic, it fell below 5000 before rallying to 69000 in 2021. The Ukraine War and the FTX collapse of 2022 brought it down to 16000, but also proved its role in humanitarian aid. By 2024, the halving and ETF approvals helped it break 100000, marking Bitcoin’s rise as digital gold.
Translation moment: Bitcoin’s rhythm follows four-year halving cycles when mining rewards are cut in half. This keeps supply limited, which often triggers new bull runs as demand returns.
Every four years, it's halving cycles 2012, 2016, 2020, 2024, fueling new waves of adoption and correction. Bitcoin grows strongest in times of uncertainty, echoing humanity’s drive to evolve beyond limits.
The Harmony of Gold and Bitcoin Modern Parallels
In today’s markets, gold’s ancient glow meets Bitcoin’s electric pulse. As of October 17, 2025, their correlation stands near 0.85, close to its historic high of 0.9. Both rise as guardians against inflation and the erosion of trust in the dollar.
Gold trades near 4310 per ounce a record high while Bitcoin hovers around 104700 showing brief fractures in their unity. Gold offers the comfort of touch while Bitcoin provides the thrill of code. Together, they reflect fear and hope, the twin emotions that drive every market.
Translation moment: A correlation of 0.85 means they often move in the same direction. When fear or inflation rises, both gold and Bitcoin tend to rise in tandem.
Analysts warn of bubbles in stocks, gold, and crypto, yet optimism remains for Bitcoin’s growth through 2026, while gold holds its defensive strength.
Gold carries risks of storage cost and theft, but steadiness in chaos. Bitcoin carries volatility and regulatory challenges, but it also offers unmatched innovation and reach. One is the anchor, the other the dream, and both reward those who hold conviction through uncertainty.
Epilogue: The Timeless Balance
Gold and Bitcoin form a bridge between the ancient and the future. Gold, the earth’s eternal treasure, stands as a symbol of stability and truth. Bitcoin, the digital heir, shines with the spark of innovation and freedom.
Experts view gold as the ultimate inflation hedge, forged in fire and tested over centuries. They see Bitcoin as its digital counterpart, scarce by code and limitless in reach.
Gold’s weight grounds us in reality while Bitcoin’s light expands our imagination. In 2025, as gold surpasses $4,346 and Bitcoin hovers near $105,000, the wise investor sees not rivals but reflections.
Translation moment: Gold reminds us to protect what we have. Bitcoin reminds us to dream of what could be. Together, they balance caution and courage, the two forces every generation must master.
One whispers of legacy, the other of evolution, yet together they tell humanity’s oldest story, our unending quest to preserve value against time and to chase the light that never fades.
🙏 I ask (Allah) for guidance and success. 🤲

The Investment ClockThe Investment Clock was most likely introduced to the general public in a research paper distributed by Merrill Lynch. It’s a simple yet useful framework for understanding the various stages of the US economic cycle and which asset classes perform best in each stage.
The Investment Clock splits the business cycle into four phases, where each phase is comprised of the orientation of growth and inflation relative to their sustainable levels:
Reflation phase (6:01 to 8:59): Growth is sluggish and inflation is low. This phase occurs during the heart of a bear market. The economy is plagued by excess capacity and falling demand. This keeps commodity prices low and pulls down inflation. The yield curve steepens as the central bank lowers short-term rates in an attempt to stimulate growth and inflation. Bonds are the best asset class in this phase.
Recovery phase (9:01 to 11:59): The central bank’s easing takes effect and begins driving growth to above the trend rate. Though growth picks up, inflation remains low because there’s still excess capacity. Rising growth and low inflation are the Goldilocks phase of every cycle. Stocks are the best asset class in this phase.
Overheat phase(12:01 to 2:59): Productivity growth slows and the GDP gap closes causing the economy to bump up against supply constraints. This causes inflation to rise. Rising inflation spurs the central banks to hike rates. As a result, the yield curve begins flattening. With high growth and high inflation, stocks still perform but not as well as in recovery. Volatility returns as bond yields rise and stocks compete with higher yields for capital flows. In this phase, commodities are the best asset class.
Stagflation phase (3:01 to 5:59): GDP growth slows but inflation remains high (sidenote: most bear markets are preceded by a 100%+ increase in the price of oil which drives inflation up and causes central banks to tighten). Productivity dives and a wage-price spiral develops as companies raise prices to protect compressing margins. This goes on until there’s a steep rise in unemployment which breaks the cycle. Central banks keep rates high until they reign in inflation. This causes the yield curve to invert. During this phase, cash is the best asset.
Additional notes from Merrill Lynch:
Cyclicality: When growth is accelerating (12 o'clock), Stocks and Commodities do well. Cyclical sectors like Tech or Steel outperform. When growth is slowing (6 o'clock), Bonds, Cash, and defensives outperform.
Duration: When inflation is falling (9 o'clock), discount rates drop and financial assets do well. Investors pay up for long duration Growth stocks. When inflation is rising (3 o'clock), real assets like Commodities and Cash do best. Pricing power is plentiful and short-duration Value stocks outperform.
Interest Rate-Sensitives: Banks and Consumer Discretionary stocks are interest-rate sensitive “early cycle” performers, doing best in Reflation and Recovery when central banks are easing and growth is starting to recover.
Asset Plays: Some sectors are linked to the performance of an underlying asset. Insurance stocks and Investment Banks are often bond or equity price sensitive, doing well in the Reflation or Recovery phases. Mining stocks are metal price-sensitive, doing well during an Overheat.
About the indicator:
This indicator suggests iShares ETFs for sector rotation analysis. There are likely other ETFs to consider which have lower fees and are outperforming their sector peers.
You may get errors if your chart is set to a different timeframe & ticker other than 1d for symbol/tickers GDPC1 or CPILFESL.
Investment Clock settings are based on a "sustainable level" of growth and inflation, which are each slightly subjective depending on the economist and probably have changed since the last time this indicator was updated. Hence, the sustainable levels are customizable in the settings. When I was formally educated I was trained to use average CPI of 3.1% for financial planning purposes, the default for the indicator is 2.5%, and the Medium article backtested and optimized a 2% sustainable inflation rate. Again, user-defined sustainable growth and rates are slightly subjective and will affect results.
I have not been trained or even had much experience with MetaTrader code, which is how this indicator was originally coded. See the original Medium article that inspired this indicator if you want to audit & compare code.

Ehlers Phasor Analysis (PHASOR)# PHASOR: Phasor Analysis (Ehlers)
## Overview and Purpose
The Phasor Analysis indicator, developed by John Ehlers, represents an advanced cycle analysis tool that identifies the phase of the dominant cycle component in a time series through complex signal processing techniques. This sophisticated indicator uses correlation-based methods to determine the real and imaginary components of the signal, converting them to a continuous phase angle that reveals market cycle progression. Unlike traditional oscillators, the Phasor provides unwrapped phase measurements that accumulate continuously, offering unique insights into market timing and cycle behavior.
## Core Concepts
* **Complex Signal Analysis** — Uses real and imaginary components to determine cycle phase
* **Correlation-Based Detection** — Employs Ehlers' correlation method for robust phase estimation
* **Unwrapped Phase Tracking** — Provides continuous phase accumulation without discontinuities
* **Anti-Regression Logic** — Prevents phase angle from moving backward under specific conditions
Market Applications:
* **Cycle Timing** — Precise identification of cycle peaks and troughs
* **Market Regime Analysis** — Distinguishes between trending and cycling market conditions
* **Turning Point Detection** — Advanced warning system for potential market reversals
## Common Settings and Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Function | When to Adjust |
|-----------|---------|----------|----------------|
| Period | 28 | Fixed cycle period for correlation analysis | Match to expected dominant cycle length |
| Source | Close | Price series for phase calculation | Use typical price or other smoothed series |
| Show Derived Period | false | Display calculated period from phase rate | Enable for adaptive period analysis |
| Show Trend State | false | Display trend/cycle state variable | Enable for regime identification |
## Calculation and Mathematical Foundation
**Technical Formula:**
**Stage 1: Correlation Analysis**
For period $n$ and source $x_t$:
Real component correlation with cosine wave:
$$R = \frac{n \sum x_t \cos\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right) - \sum x_t \sum \cos\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right)}{\sqrt{D_{cos}}}$$
Imaginary component correlation with negative sine wave:
$$I = \frac{n \sum x_t \left(-\sin\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right)\right) - \sum x_t \sum \left(-\sin\left(\frac{2\pi t}{n}\right)\right)}{\sqrt{D_{sin}}}$$
where $D_{cos}$ and $D_{sin}$ are normalization denominators.
**Stage 2: Phase Angle Conversion**
$$\theta_{raw} = \begin{cases}
90° - \arctan\left(\frac{I}{R}\right) \cdot \frac{180°}{\pi} & \text{if } R \neq 0 \\
0° & \text{if } R = 0, I > 0 \\
180° & \text{if } R = 0, I \leq 0
\end{cases}$$
**Stage 3: Phase Unwrapping**
$$\theta_{unwrapped}(t) = \theta_{unwrapped}(t-1) + \Delta\theta$$
where $\Delta\theta$ is the normalized phase difference.
**Stage 4: Ehlers' Anti-Regression Condition**
$$\theta_{final}(t) = \begin{cases}
\theta_{final}(t-1) & \text{if regression conditions met} \\
\theta_{unwrapped}(t) & \text{otherwise}
\end{cases}$$
**Derived Calculations:**
Derived Period: $P_{derived} = \frac{360°}{\Delta\theta_{final}}$ (clamped to )
Trend State:
$$S_{trend} = \begin{cases}
1 & \text{if } \Delta\theta \leq 6° \text{ and } |\theta| \geq 90° \\
-1 & \text{if } \Delta\theta \leq 6° \text{ and } |\theta| < 90° \\
0 & \text{if } \Delta\theta > 6°
\end{cases}$$
> 🔍 **Technical Note:** The correlation-based approach provides robust phase estimation even in noisy market conditions, while the unwrapping mechanism ensures continuous phase tracking across cycle boundaries.
## Interpretation Details
* **Phasor Angle (Primary Output):**
- **+90°**: Potential cycle peak region
- **0°**: Mid-cycle ascending phase
- **-90°**: Potential cycle trough region
- **±180°**: Mid-cycle descending phase
* **Phase Progression:**
- Continuous upward movement → Normal cycle progression
- Phase stalling → Potential cycle extension or trend development
- Rapid phase changes → Cycle compression or volatility spike
* **Derived Period Analysis:**
- Period < 10 → High-frequency cycle dominance
- Period 15-40 → Typical swing trading cycles
- Period > 50 → Trending market conditions
* **Trend State Variable:**
- **+1**: Long trend conditions (slow phase change in extreme zones)
- **-1**: Short trend or consolidation (slow phase change in neutral zones)
- **0**: Active cycling (normal phase change rate)
## Applications
* **Cycle-Based Trading:**
- Enter long positions near -90° crossings (cycle troughs)
- Enter short positions near +90° crossings (cycle peaks)
- Exit positions during mid-cycle phases (0°, ±180°)
* **Market Timing:**
- Use phase acceleration for early trend detection
- Monitor derived period for cycle length changes
- Combine with trend state for regime-appropriate strategies
* **Risk Management:**
- Adjust position sizes based on cycle clarity (derived period stability)
- Implement different risk parameters for trending vs. cycling regimes
- Use phase velocity for stop-loss placement timing
## Limitations and Considerations
* **Parameter Sensitivity:**
- Fixed period assumption may not match actual market cycles
- Requires cycle period optimization for different markets and timeframes
- Performance degrades when multiple cycles interfere
* **Computational Complexity:**
- Correlation calculations over full period windows
- Multiple mathematical transformations increase processing requirements
- Real-time implementation requires efficient algorithms
* **Market Conditions:**
- Most effective in markets with clear cyclical behavior
- May provide false signals during strong trending periods
- Requires sufficient historical data for correlation analysis
Complementary Indicators:
* MESA Adaptive Moving Average (cycle-based smoothing)
* Dominant Cycle Period indicators
* Detrended Price Oscillator (cycle identification)

Mayer Mutiple | QRMayer Multiple | QR — Publication Description
What it does
Mayer Multiple | QR is a cycle/valuation style oscillator that measures how far price sits above or below its longer-term average and normalizes that distance by current volatility. It helps you spot overheated extensions and deep discounts relative to trend, with adaptive bands that expand/contract as conditions change.
How it works (principle)
The script compares price to a long lookback moving average (default uses a 200-period average of ohlc4) and turns that gap into an oscillator.
It then computes a rolling standard deviation of that oscillator to build dynamic upper/lower bands (±1σ, ±2σ, ±3σ).
When the oscillator rises above the upper bands, the move is statistically stretched (potential distribution/risk). When it falls below the lower bands, it’s statistically depressed (potential accumulation/opportunity).
A small baseline band around zero (scaled from volatility) provides a quick trend-bias read without crowding the view.
Why this matters: Classic “Mayer Multiple” tools use a fixed threshold over a single moving average. This version is volatility-aware: its bands adapt to the market’s current dispersion, reducing false signals in quiet regimes and avoiding constant “overheat” flags in high-vol regimes.
What you see on the chart
White oscillator line: volatility-normalized deviation from the long-term average.
Adaptive bands:
Upper 1/2/3σ (shaded blue tones) = progressively more extended.
Lower 1/2/3σ (shaded green tones) = progressively more discounted.
Baseline ribbon: subtle band around zero for quick bias.
Background highlights: optional flashes when the oscillator exceeds the ±3σ extremes.
All visuals are generated by this script alone; no other indicator is required to understand usage.
How to use it
Context: Use on higher timeframes to gauge where price sits versus its long-term “fair value corridor.”
Signal reading:
Above +1σ/+2σ/+3σ: extension → consider de-risking, trailing stops, or waiting for mean reversion.
Below −1σ/−2σ/−3σ: discount → consider scaling in, watching for trend resumption cues.
Confluence: Treat it as a condition, not a trigger. Pair with structure (higher highs/lows), breadth, or momentum for entries/exits.
Regime awareness: As volatility rises, bands widen; prioritize trend context over single print extremes.
Inputs you can tune
Color mode: preset palettes for lines/fills/backgrounds.
Dynamic Threshold Length: lookback for the volatility (σ) calculation driving the adaptive bands.
Source: price input used for the long-term reference.
Band toggles: show/hide ±1σ / ±2σ / ±3σ envelopes to reduce clutter.
Originality & value
Adaptive, volatility-aware implementation of a Mayer-style concept: rather than one fixed threshold, it scales to current regime, keeping readings comparable across cycles.
Clear, clean presentation (oscillator + bands + optional background) designed for publication with a clean chart so the script’s output is immediately identifiable.
Offers actionable context (stretch/discount zones) while leaving trade execution to the user’s process.
Limitations & good practices
Best used for context and risk framing, not stand-alone entries.
Adaptive bands depend on the lookback you choose; very short windows can overfit, very long windows can lag.
Extremes can persist in strong trends—don’t fade momentum blindly.

Set Up Alerts: Configure alerts for divergence signals, zero line crosses, and other market conditions to stay informed of trading opportunities
LIMITATIONS
The script requires the dc_ta library from blackcat1402 for several advanced cycle calculation methods (HoDyDC, PhAcDC, DuDiDC, CycPer, BPZC, AutoPer, DFTDC)
L1 method operates in 01 range while L2 method uses -11 range, requiring different interpretation approaches
Combined L3 signal ranges from -1~2 when both methods are selected, creating unique signal characteristics that traders must adapt to
Divergence detection accuracy depends on proper lookback period settings and market volatility conditions
Performance may be impacted with very long lookback ranges (>60 bars) or when multiple plots are simultaneously enabled
The script is designed for non-overlay use and may not display correctly on certain chart types or with conflicting indicators
Adaptive mixing method requires careful threshold tuning to avoid excessive signal fluctuation
Cycle detection algorithms may produce unreliable results during low volatility or highly choppy market conditions
The script assumes regular price data and may not perform optimally with irregular or gapped price sequences
NOTES
The script implements advanced mathematical calculations including bandpass filters, Hilbert transforms, and various cycle detection algorithms developed by John Ehlers
For optimal results, experiment with different cycle detection methods and bandwidth settings across various market conditions and timeframes
The adaptive mixing method automatically adjusts weights based on signal strength, providing dynamic response to changing market conditions
Divergence detection works best when the "Plot Divergence" option is enabled and when combined with other technical analysis tools
Zero line crosses can indicate potential trend changes or momentum shifts, especially when confirmed by volume or other indicators
The script includes commented code for cycle information display that can be enabled if you want to monitor cycle periods in real-time
Different calculation methods may perform better in different market environments - L1 tends to be smoother while L2 is more sensitive
The subdominant cycle helps filter out noise and provides additional confirmation for signals generated by the dominant cycle
Bandwidth settings control the filter's frequency response - lower values provide more smoothing while higher values increase sensitivity
Mixing methods offer different approaches to combining signals - weighted averaging is generally most reliable for most trading applications

CCI with Subjective NormalizationCCI (Commodity Channel Index) with Subjective Normalization
This indicator computes the classic CCI over a user-defined length, then applies a subjective mean and scale to transform the raw CCI into a pseudo Z‑score range. By adjusting the “Subjective Mean” and “Subjective Scale” inputs, you can shift and rescale the oscillator to highlight significant tops and bottoms more clearly in historical data.
1. CCI Calculation:
- Uses the standard formula \(\text{CCI} = \frac{\text{price} - \text{SMA(price, length)}}{0.015 \times \text{mean deviation}}\) over a user-specified length (default 500 bars).
2. Subjective Normalization:
- After CCI is calculated, it is divided by “Subjective Scale” and offset by “Subjective Mean.”
- This step effectively re-centers and re-scales the oscillator, helping you align major lows or highs at values like –2 or +2 (or any desired range).
3. Usage Tips:
- CCI Length controls how far back the script measures average price and deviation. Larger values emphasize multi-year cycles.
- Subjective Mean and Scale let you align the oscillator’s historical lows and highs with numeric levels you prefer (e.g., near ±2).
- Adjust these parameters to fit your particular market analysis or to match known cycle tops/bottoms.
4. Plot & Zero Line:
- The indicator plots the normalized CCI in yellow, along with a zero line for quick reference.
- Positive values suggest price is above its long-term mean, while negative values suggest it’s below.
This approach offers a straightforward momentum oscillator (CCI) combined with a customizable normalization, making it easier to spot historically significant overbought/oversold conditions without writing complex code yourself.
[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Autocorrelation Periodogram V2OVERVIEW
The Ehlers Autocorrelation Periodogram is a sophisticated technical analysis tool that identifies market cycles and their dominant frequencies using autocorrelation and spectral analysis techniques.
BACKGROUND
Developed by John F. Ehlers and detailed in his book "Cycle Analytics for Traders" (2013), this indicator combines autocorrelation functions with discrete Fourier transforms to extract cyclic information from price data.
FUNCTION
The indicator works through these key steps:
Calculates autocorrelation using minimum three-bar averaging
Applies discrete Fourier transform to extract cyclic information
Uses center-of-gravity algorithm to determine dominant cycle
ADVANTAGES
• Rapid response within half-cycle periods
• Accurate relative cyclic power estimation over time
• Correlation constraints between -1 and +1 eliminate amplitude compensation needs
• High resolution independent of windowing functions
HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your chart
Adjust AvgLength input parameter:
• Default: 3 bars
• Higher values increase smoothing
• Lower values increase sensitivity
Interpret the results:
• Colored bars represent spectral power
• Red to yellow spectrum indicates cycle strength
• White line shows dominant cycle period
INTERPRETATION
• Strong colors indicate significant cyclic activity
• Sharp color transitions suggest potential cycle changes
• Dominant cycle line helps identify primary market rhythm
LIMITATIONS
• Requires sufficient historical data
• Performance may vary in non-cyclical markets
• Results depend on proper parameter settings
NOTES
• Uses highpass and super smoother filtering techniques
• Spectral estimates are normalized between 0 and 1
• Color intensity varies based on spectral power
THANKS
This implementation is based on Ehlers' original work and has been adapted for TradingView's Pine Script platform.

QT is built for traders who focus on time structure, intermarket confirmation/denial, and disciplined SMT-based signaling, while keeping everything unified, performant, and configurable.
SW Gann DaysGann pressure days, named after the famous trader W.D. Gann, refer to specific days in a trading month that are believed to have significant market influence. These days are identified based on Gann's theories of astrology, geometry, and market cycles. Here’s a general outline of how they might be understood:
1. **Market Cycles**: Gann believed that markets move in cycles and that certain days can have heightened volatility or trend changes. Traders look for specific dates based on historical price movements.
2. **Timing Indicators**: Pressure days often align with key economic reports, earnings announcements, or geopolitical events that can cause price swings.
3. **Mathematical Patterns**: Gann used angles and geometric patterns to predict price movements, with pressure days potentially aligning with these calculations.
4. **Historical Patterns**: Traders analyze past data to identify dates that historically show strong price reactions, using this to predict future behavior.
5. **Astrological Influences**: Some practitioners incorporate astrological elements, believing that celestial events (like full moons or planetary alignments) can impact market psychology.
Traders might use these concepts to make decisions about entering or exiting positions, but it’s important to note that Gann's methods can be complex and are not universally accepted in trading communities.
Retrograde Periods (Multi-Planet)**Retrograde Periods (Multi-Planet) Indicator**
This TradingView script overlays your chart with a dynamic visualization of planetary retrograde periods. Built in Pine Script v6, it computes and displays the retrograde status of eight planets—Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto—using hard-coded retrograde intervals from 2009 to 2026.
**Key Features:**
- Dynamic Background Coloring:
The indicator changes the chart’s background color based on the current retrograde status of the planets. The colors follow a priority order (Mercury > Venus > Mars > Jupiter > Saturn > Uranus > Neptune > Pluto) so that if multiple planets are retrograde simultaneously, the highest-priority planet’s color is displayed.
- Interactive Planet Selection:
User-friendly checkboxes allow you to choose which planets to list in the table’s “Selected” row. Note that while these checkboxes control the display of the planet names in the table, the retrograde calculations remain independent of these selections.

Gann & Fibonacci Analysis for MSTRYes! Below is a step-by-step guide to performing Gann Analysis on MSTR in TradingView for the last year.
Step 1: Set Up the Chart
Open TradingView and search for MSTR (MicroStrategy).
Select the 1-day (D) timeframe to analyze the past year.
Set your chart to logarithmic scale (⚙ Settings → Scale → Log).
Enable grid lines for alignment (⚙ Settings → Appearance → Grid Lines).
Step 2: Identify Key Highs and Lows (Last Year)
Find the 52-week high and 52-week low for MSTR.
As of now:
52-Week High: ~$999 (March 2024).
52-Week Low: ~$280 (October 2023).
Step 3: Plot Gann Angles
Using TradingView's Gann Fan Tool:
Select "Gann Fan" (Press / and type “Gann Fan” to find it).
Start at the 52-week low (~$280, October 2023) and drag upwards.
Adjust the angles to match key levels:
1x1 (45°) → Main trendline
2x1 (26.5°) → Strong uptrend
4x1 (15°) → Weak trendline
1x2 (63.75°) → Strong resistance
Repeat the process from the 52-week high (~$999, March 2024) downward to see bearish angles.
Step 4: Apply Fibonacci & Gann Retracement Levels
Using Fibonacci Retracement:
Select "Fibonacci Retracement" tool.
Draw from 52-week high ($999) to 52-week low ($280).
Enable key Fibonacci levels:
23.6% ($816)

Step 5: Identify Significant Dates & Time Cycles
Use "Date Range" Tool in TradingView.
Mark major turning points:
High → Low: ~180 days (Half-year cycle).
Low → High: ~90 days (Quarter cycle).
Use Square-Outs (Time = Price method):
Example: If MSTR hit $500, check 500 days from key events.
Mark key anniversaries of past highs/lows for possible reversals.
Step 6: Analyze and Trade Execution
✅ If MSTR is at a Gann angle + Fibonacci level + key date → Expect a reaction.
✅ Use RSI, MACD, and Volume for extra confirmation.
✅ Set Stop-Loss at nearest Gann support/resistance.
Dominant Direction (DD)The Dominant Direction indicator is a custom technical analysis tool that uses the Dominant Cycle Estimators library to identify the dominant trend direction in the market. The indicator utilizes the MAMA Cycle function, which is a part of the library, to calculate the period of the data. The resulting period is then used to plot lines on the chart that represent the dominant trend direction.
The indicator takes two inputs, the source of data, and the high and low values of the source. The MAMA Cycle function is used to calculate the period of the data, with the lower bound and upper bound of the dynamic length defined by the user. The indicator then plots lines on the chart to represent the dominant trend direction. The lines are plotted from the current bar to the bar that is a certain number of periods away, as defined by the MAMA Cycle function, in the direction of the trend.
The indicator also has a feature of removing the lines when the trend is no longer confirmed. If the bar state is confirmed, the line is deleted and this helps the user to have a clearer view of the chart.
In summary, the Dominant Direction indicator is a powerful tool for identifying the dominant trend direction in the market. It uses the MAMA Cycle function to calculate the period of the data and plots lines on the chart to represent the dominant trend direction. This can help traders identify potential entry and exit points, and make more informed trading decisions.
Fractal HTF Lines The indicator “Fractal HTF Lines” draws time‑based vertical lines that mark where higher‑timeframe periods start on your chart. It adapts its behavior to the timeframe you are currently viewing.
4‑hour timeframe
On a 4‑hour chart, the indicator draws a vertical line on the first 4‑hour bar of each new trading day. This lets you quickly see where one day ends and the next begins without turning on session breaks.
Daily timeframe
On a daily chart, the indicator draws a vertical line on the first trading day of each new week. Visually, this separates weeks so you can see weekly structure while still trading and analyzing on the daily timeframe.
Weekly timeframe
On a weekly chart, the indicator draws a vertical line on the first trading week of each new month. That way you can identify monthly boundaries directly on the weekly chart and better align your analysis with monthly cycles.
Customization
The indicator includes settings to control:
Line color: You can choose any color from the palette.
Line width: You can adjust the thickness to make lines more or less prominent.
Line opacity: You can make lines more transparent or more solid, depending on how strong you want the visual emphasis.
週一普跌策略 Monday shit Strategy Strategy Description / 策略敘述
EN
This strategy takes a short position at the start of each Monday, based on the hypothesis that cryptocurrency markets tend to experience post-weekend risk-off behavior.
The system enters a full-equity short position at the Tokyo open (Taipei 08:00), aiming to capture Monday downside pressure resulting from accumulated weekend information and macro sentiment adjustments when traditional financial markets reopen.
Risk management uses fixed percentage take-profit and stop-loss levels, emphasizing asymmetric reward-to-risk (large occasional gains, small frequent losses).
The model reflects the increasing alignment between crypto price behavior and traditional financial market cycles.

The Weekly Open (Red Line) sets the higher timeframe directional bias.
4️⃣ Alerts for Breakouts
The indicator will trigger alerts when price breaks session highs or lows.
Useful for setting stop-losses, breakout trades, and risk management.
💡 Why This Indicator is Important for Beginners
1️⃣ Avoids Overtrading:
Many beginners trade in low-volume periods (NY Lunch, Asia session) and get stuck in choppy price action.
This indicator highlights when volatility is high so traders focus on better opportunities.
2️⃣ Session-Based Liquidity Traps:
Market makers often run stops at session highs/lows before reversing.
Watching session breaks prevents traders from falling into liquidity grabs.
3️⃣ Reduces Emotional Trading:
If price is above the Daily Open, a beginner shouldn’t look for shorts.
If price is below a key session low, it may signal a fake breakout.
4️⃣ Aligns with Institutional Trading:
Smart money traders use session highs/lows to set stop hunts & reversals.
Beginners can use this indicator to spot these zones before entering trades.
🛡️ How to Mitigate Risk with This Indicator
✅ Wait for Confirmations – Don’t trade blindly at session highs/lows. Look for wicks, rejections, or break/retests.
✅ Use Stop-Loss Above/Below Session Levels – If you’re going long, set SL below a session low. If short, set SL above a session high.
✅ Watch Volume & News Events – Breakouts without strong volume or news may be fake moves.
✅ Combine with Other Strategies – Use price action, trendlines, or EMAs with this indicator for higher probability trades.
✅ Use the Weekly Open for Trend Bias – If price stays below the Weekly Open, avoid bullish setups unless key support holds.
🎯 Who is This Indicator For?
