Profitability Visualization with Bid-Ask Spread ApproximationOverview
The " Profitability Visualization with Bid-Ask Spread Approximation " indicator is designed to assist traders in assessing potential profit and loss targets in relation to the current market price or a simulated entry price. It provides flexibility by allowing users to choose between two methods for calculating the offset from the current price:
Bid-Ask Spread Approximation: The indicator attempts to estimate the bid-ask spread by using the highest (high) and lowest (low) prices within a given period (typically the current bar or a user-defined timeframe) as proxies for the ask and bid prices, respectively. This method provides a dynamic offset that adapts to market volatility.
Percentage Offset: Alternatively, users can specify a fixed percentage offset from the current price. This method offers a consistent offset regardless of market conditions.
Key Features
Dual Offset Calculation Methods: Choose between a dynamic bid-ask spread approximation or a fixed percentage offset to tailor the indicator to your trading style and market analysis.
Entry Price Consideration: The indicator can simulate an entry price at the beginning of each trading session (or the first bar on the chart if no sessions are defined). This feature enables a more realistic visualization of potential profit and loss levels based on a hypothetical entry point.
Profit and Loss Targets: When the entry price consideration is enabled, the indicator plots profit target (green) and loss target (red) lines. These lines represent the price levels at which a trade entered at the simulated entry price would achieve a profit or incur a loss equivalent to the calculated offset amount.
Offset Visualization: Regardless of whether the entry price is considered, the indicator always displays upper (aqua) and lower (fuchsia) offset lines. These lines represent the calculated offset levels based on the chosen method (bid-ask approximation or percentage offset).
Customization: Users can adjust the percentage offset, toggle the bid-ask approximation and entry price consideration, and customize the appearance of the lines through the indicator's settings.
Inputs
useBidAskApproximation A boolean (checkbox) input that determines whether to use the bid-ask spread approximation (true) or the percentage offset (false). Default is false.
percentageOffset A float input that allows users to specify the percentage offset to be used when useBidAskApproximation is false. The default value is 0.63.
considerEntryPrice A boolean input that enables the consideration of a simulated entry price for calculating and displaying profit and loss targets. Default is true.
Calculations
Bid-Ask Approximation (if enabled): bidApprox = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, timeframe.period, low) Approximates the bid price using the lowest price (low) of the current period. askApprox = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, timeframe.period, high) Approximates the ask price using the highest price (high) of the current period. spreadApprox = askApprox - bidApprox Calculates the approximate spread.
Offset Amount: offsetAmount = useBidAskApproximation ? spreadApprox / 2 : close * (percentageOffset / 100) Determines the offset amount based on the selected method. If useBidAskApproximation is true, the offset is half of the approximated spread; otherwise, it's the current closing price (close) multiplied by the percentageOffset.
Entry Price (if enabled): var entryPrice = 0.0 Initializes a variable to store the entry price. if considerEntryPrice Checks if entry price consideration is enabled. if barstate.isnew Checks if the current bar is the first bar of a new session. entryPrice := close Sets the entryPrice to the closing price of the first bar of the session.
Profit and Loss Targets (if entry price is considered): profitTarget = entryPrice + offsetAmount Calculates the profit target price level. lossTarget = entryPrice - offsetAmount Calculates the loss target price level.
Plotting
Profit Target Line: Plotted in green (color.green) with a dashed line style (plot.style_linebr) and increased linewidth (linewidth=2) when considerEntryPrice is true.
Loss Target Line: Plotted in red (color.red) with a dashed line style (plot.style_linebr) and increased linewidth (linewidth=2) when considerEntryPrice is true.
Upper Offset Line: Always plotted in aqua (color.aqua) to show the offset level above the current price.
Lower Offset Line: Always plotted in fuchsia (color.fuchsia) to show the offset level below the current price.
Limitations
Approximation: The bid-ask spread approximation is based on high and low prices and may not perfectly reflect the actual bid-ask spread of a specific broker, especially during periods of high volatility or low liquidity.
Simplified Entry: The entry price simulation is basic and assumes entry at the beginning of each session. It does not account for specific entry signals or order types.
No Order Execution: This indicator is purely for visualization and does not execute any trades.
Data Discrepancies: The high and low values used for approximation might not always align with real-time bid and ask prices due to differences in data aggregation and timing between TradingView and various brokers.
Disclaimer
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Trading involves substantial risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Always conduct thorough research and consider your own risk tolerance before making any trading decisions. It is recommended to combine this indicator with other technical analysis tools and a well-defined trading strategy.
Full Spectrum Delta BandsI created the Full Spectrum Delta Bands (FullSpec ΔBB) to go beyond traditional Bollinger Bands by incorporating both OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) and Close-based data into the calculations. Instead of relying solely on closing prices, this indicator evaluates deviations from the complete bar range (OHLC), offering a more accurate view of market behavior.
A key feature is the Delta Flip, which highlights shifts between OHLC and Close-based bands. These flips are visually marked with color changes, signaling potential trend reversals, breakout zones, or volatility shifts. Traders can use these moments as inflection points to refine their entry and exit strategies.
The indicator also supports customizable sensitivity and deviation multiplier settings, allowing it to adapt to different trading styles and timeframes. Lower deviation values (e.g., 1σ or 1.5σ) are ideal for scalping on shorter timeframes like 5-min or 15-min charts, while higher values (e.g., 2.5σ or 3σ) are better suited for long-term trend analysis on weekly or monthly charts. The standard deviation multiplier fine-tunes the upper and lower bands to match specific trading goals and market conditions.
I designed Full Spectrum Delta Bands to provide deeper insights and a clearer view of market dynamics compared to traditional Bollinger Bands. Whether you’re a scalper, swing trader, or long-term investor, this tool helps you make informed and confident trading decisions.
Uptrick: Arbitrage OpportunityINTRODUCTION
This script, titled Uptrick: Arbitrage Monitor, is a Pine Script™ indicator that aims to help traders quickly visualize potential arbitrage scenarios across multiple cryptocurrency exchanges. Arbitrage, in general, involves taking advantage of price differences for the same asset across different trading platforms. By comparing market prices of the same symbol on two user-selected exchanges, as well as scanning a broader list of exchanges, this script attempts to signal areas where you might want to buy on one exchange and sell on another. It includes various graphical tools, calculations, and an optional Automated Detection signal feature, allowing users to incorporate more advanced data scanning into their trading decisions. Keep in mind that transaction fees must also be considered in real-world scenarios. These fees can negate potential profits and, in some cases, result in a net loss.
PURPOSE
The primary purpose of this indicator is to show potential percentage differences between the same cryptocurrency trading pairs on two different exchanges. This difference is displayed numerically, visually as a line chart, and it is also tested against user-defined thresholds. With the threshold in place, buy and sell signals can be generated. The script allows you to quickly gauge how significant a spread is between two exchanges and whether that spread surpasses a specified threshold. This is particularly useful for arbitrage trading, where an asset is bought at a lower price on one exchange and sold at a higher price on another, capitalizing on price discrepancies. By identifying these opportunities, traders can potentially secure profits across different markets.
WHY IT WAS MADE
This script was developed to help traders who frequently look for arbitrage opportunities in the fast-paced cryptocurrency market. Cryptocurrencies sometimes experience quick price divergences across different exchanges. By having an automated approach that compares and displays prices, traders can spend less time manually tracking price discrepancies and more time focusing on actual trading strategies. The script was also made with user customization in mind, allowing you to toggle an optional Automated-based approach and choose different moving average methods to smooth out the displayed price difference.
WHAT ARBITRAGE IS
Arbitrage is the practice of buying an asset on one market (or exchange) at a lower price and simultaneously selling it on another market where the price is higher, thus profiting from the price difference. In cryptocurrency markets, these price differentials can occur across multiple exchanges due to varying liquidity, trading volume, geographic factors, or market inefficiencies. Though sometimes small, these differences can be exploited for profit when approached methodically.
EXPLANATION OF INPUTS
The script includes a variety of user inputs that help tailor the indicator to your specific needs:
1. Compared Symbol 1: This is the primary symbol you want to track (for example, BTCUSDT). Make sure it's written in all capital and make sure that it's price from that exchange is available on Tradingview.
2. Compare Exchange 1: The first exchange on which the script will request pricing data for the chosen symbol.
3. Compared to Exchange: The second exchange, used for the comparison.
4. Opportunity Threshold (%): A percentage threshold that, when exceeded by the price difference, can trigger buy or sell signals.
5. Plot Style?: Allows you to choose between plotting the raw difference line or a moving average of that difference.
6. MA Type: Select among SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA for your moving average calculation.
7. MA Length: The lookback period for the selected moving average.
8. Plot Buy/Sell Signals?: Enables or disables the plotting of arrows signaling potential buy or sell zones based on threshold crossovers.
9. Automated Detection?: Toggles an additional multi-exchange data scan feature that calculates the highest and lowest prices for the specified symbol across a predefined list of exchanges.
CALCULATIONS
At its core, the script calculates price1 and price2 using the request.security function to fetch close prices from two selected exchanges. The difference is measured as (price1 - price2) / price2 * 100. This results in a percentage that indicates how much higher or lower price1 is relative to price2. Additionally, the script calculates a slope for this difference, which helps color the line depending on whether it is trending up or down. If you choose the moving average option, the script will replace the raw difference data with one of several moving average calculations (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA).
The script also includes an iterative scan of up to 15 different exchanges for Automated detection, collecting the highest and lowest price across all those exchanges. If the Automated option is enabled, it compiles a potential recommendation: buy at the cheapest exchange price and sell at the most expensive one. The difference across all exchanges (allExDiffPercent) is calculated using (highestPriceAll - lowestPriceAll) / lowestPriceAll * 100.
WHAT AUTOMATED DETECTION SIGNAL DOES
If enabled, the Automated detection feature scans all 15 supported exchanges for the specified symbol. It then identifies the exchange with the highest price and the exchange with the lowest price. The script displays a recommended action: buy on the lowest-exchange price and sell on the highest-exchange price. While called “Automated,” it is essentially a multi-exchange data query that automates a portion of research by consolidating different price points. It does not replace thorough analysis or guaranteed execution; it simply provides an overview of potential extremes.
WHAT ALL-EX-DIFF IS
The variable allExDiffPercent is used to show the overall difference between the highest price and the lowest price found among the 15 pre-chosen exchanges. This figure can be useful for anyone wanting a big-picture view of how large the arbitrage spread might be across the broader market.
SIGNALS AND HOW THEY ARE GENERATED
The script provides two main modes of signal generation:
1. Raw Difference Mode: If the user chooses “Use Normal Line,” the script compares the percentage difference of the two selected exchanges (price1 and price2) to the user-defined threshold. When the difference crosses under the positive threshold, a sell signal is displayed (red arrow). Conversely, when the difference crosses above the negative threshold, a buy signal is displayed (green arrow).
2. Moving Average Mode: If the user selects “Use Moving Average,” the script instead references the moving average values (maValue). The signals fire under similar conditions but use the average line to gauge whether the threshold has been crossed.
HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
1. Add the script to your chart in TradingView.
2. In the script’s settings panel, configure the symbol you wish to compare (for example, BTCUSDT), choose the two exchanges you want to evaluate, and set your desired threshold.
3. Optionally, pick a moving average type and length if you prefer a smoother representation of the difference.
4. Enable or disable buy/sell signals according to your preference.
5. If you’d like to see potential extremes among a broader list of exchanges, enable Automated Detection. Keep in mind that this feature runs additional security requests, so it might slow down performance on weaker devices or if you already have many scripts running.
EXCHANGES TO USE
The script currently supports up to 15 exchanges: BYBIT, BINANCE, MEXC, BLOFIN, BITGET, OKX, KUCOIN, COINBASE, COINEX, PHEMEX, POLONIEX, GATEIO, BITSTAMP, and KRAKEN. You can choose any two of these for direct comparison, and if you enable the Automated detection, it will attempt to query them all to find extremes in real time.
VISUALS
The exchanges and current prices & differences are all plotted in the table while the colored line represents the difference in the price. The two thresholds colored red are where signals are generated. A cross below the upper threshold is a sell signal and a cross above the lower threshold is a buy signal. In the line at the bottom, purple is a negative slope and aqua is a positive slope.
LIMITATIONS AND POTENTIAL PROBLEMS
If you enable too many visual elements such as signals, additional lines, and the Automated-based scanning table, you may find that your chart becomes cluttered, or text might overlap. One workaround is to remove and reapply the indicator to refresh its display. You may also want to reduce the number of displayed table rows by disabling some features if your chart becomes too crowded. Sometimes there might be an error that the price of an asset is not available on an exchange, to fix this, go and select another exchange to compare it to, or if it happens in Automated detection, choose a different asset, ideally more widely spread.
UNIQUENESS
This indicator stands out due to its multifaceted approach: it doesn’t just look at two exchanges but optionally scans up to 15 exchanges in real time, presenting users with a much broader view of the market. The dual-mode system (raw difference vs. moving average) allows for both immediate, unfiltered signals and smoother, noise-reduced signals depending on user preference. By default, it introduces dynamic visual cues through color changes when the slope of the difference transitions upward or downward. The optional Automated detection, while not a deep learning system, adds a functional intelligence layer by collating extreme price points from multiple exchanges in one place, thereby streamlining the manual research process. This combination of features gives the script a unique edge in the TradingView ecosystem, catering equally to novices wanting a straightforward approach and to advanced users looking for an aggregated multi-exchange analysis.
CONCLUSION
Uptrick: Arbitrage Monitor is a versatile and customizable Pine Script™ indicator that highlights price differences for a specified symbol between two user-selected exchanges. Through signals, threshold-based alerts, and optional Automated detection across multiple exchanges, it aims to support traders in identifying potential arbitrage opportunities quickly and efficiently. This script makes no guarantees of profitability but can serve as a valuable tool to add to your trading toolkit. Always use caution when implementing arbitrage strategies, and be mindful of market risks, exchange fees, and latency.
ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES
This script is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice or a guarantee of performance. Users are encouraged to conduct thorough research and consider the inherent risks of arbitrage trading. Market conditions can change rapidly, and orders may fail to execute at desired prices, especially when large price discrepancies attract competition from other traders.

−
current close
highest high over period
×
100
This formula provides a percentage measure of how far the price has fallen from its recent high.
Interpretation:
High WVF Values: Indicate increased volatility and potential market bottoms, suggesting oversold conditions.
Low WVF Values: Suggest lower volatility and potentially overbought conditions.
Usage:
WVF can be used in conjunction with other indicators (e.g., moving averages, RSI) to confirm signals.
It is particularly useful for identifying periods of significant price declines and potential reversals.
In the script, the WVF concept is incorporated into the drawdown levels, providing a visual representation of how far the price has fallen from its 22-day high.
Example Use Cases:

Squeeze Momentum Indicator [CHE] Squeeze Momentum Indicator
The Squeeze Momentum Indicator is an improved and simplified version of the classic Squeeze Momentum Indicator by LazyBear. It focuses on precise detection of squeeze phases without relying on Keltner Channels (KC) or complex momentum calculations. Instead, it emphasizes the dynamic analysis of Bollinger Band widths and their distance changes to provide clear and intuitive signals.
What is the Squeeze Momentum Indicator ?
This indicator helps you identify periods of low volatility (squeeze phases) when the market is often poised for significant moves. With its clear visualization and innovative methods, it enables traders to spot breakout opportunities early and trade strategically.
Differences from the Original LazyBear Indicator
1. Use of Bollinger Bands (BB):
- LazyBear Indicator combines Bollinger Bands with Keltner Channels. A squeeze is detected when the Bollinger Bands fall inside the Keltner Channels.
- CHE Indicator relies solely on Bollinger Bands and an additional analysis of their width (distance between the upper and lower bands). This makes the calculation more straightforward and reduces dependency on multiple indicator families.
2. Squeeze Detection:
- LazyBear: A squeeze is defined based on the relationship between Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels. It has three states: “Squeeze On,” “Squeeze Off,” and “No Squeeze.”
- CHE: A squeeze is detected when the width of the Bollinger Bands falls below the lower "Distance Bollinger Bands." It only has two states: Squeeze Active and No Squeeze.
3. Momentum Calculation:
- LazyBear: Uses linear regression (LinReg) to calculate momentum and displays it as color-coded histograms.
- CHE: Does not include momentum calculations. The focus is entirely on volatility visualization and squeeze detection.
4. Visualization:
- LazyBear: Displays momentum histograms and horizontal lines to signal different states.
- CHE: Visualizes the width of the Bollinger Bands and their Distance Bollinger Bands as lines on the chart. The chart background turns green when a squeeze is detected, simplifying interpretation.
What Is Plotted?
1. Bollinger Band Width:
- A line representing the distance between the upper and lower Bollinger Bands, measuring market volatility.
2. Distance Bollinger Bands:
- Two additional lines (upper and lower Distance Bollinger Bands) based on the Bollinger Band width, defining thresholds for squeeze conditions.
3. Session-Specific Box:
- A dynamic box is drawn on the chart during a squeeze phase. The box marks the high and low of the market for the squeeze duration. It visually frames the range, helping traders monitor breakouts beyond these levels.
4. Max/Min Markers:
- The indicator dynamically updates and marks the maximum and minimum price levels during a squeeze. These levels can serve as breakout thresholds or critical reference points for price action.
5. Background Color:
- The chart background turns green when a squeeze is active (Bollinger Band width falls below the lower Distance Bollinger Bands). This highlights potential breakout conditions.
How to Use the CHE Indicator
1. Add the Indicator:
- Add the indicator to your chart and customize settings such as Bollinger Band length (`sqz_length`) and multiplier (`sqz_multiplier`) to fit your strategy.
2. Identify Squeeze Conditions:
- Watch for the green background, which signals a squeeze—indicating a period of low volatility where significant market moves often follow.
3. Monitor the Box and Max/Min Levels:
- During a squeeze, the box outlines the trading range, and the maximum and minimum levels are updated in real time. Use these as breakout triggers or support/resistance zones.
4. Session-Specific Analysis:
- The indicator can highlight squeezes during specific trading sessions (e.g., market open), allowing you to focus on key time frames.
5. Additional Confirmation:
- Combine the CHE Indicator with price action analysis or momentum tools to determine the direction of potential breakouts.
Why Use the Squeeze Momentum Indicator ?
- Simplicity: Clear visualization and reduced complexity by eliminating Keltner Channels and momentum calculations.
- Flexibility: Suitable for all markets—stocks, forex, crypto, and more.
- Enhanced Visualization: The box and max/min markers provide real-time visual cues for range-bound trading and breakout strategies.
- Efficiency: Focuses on what matters most—identifying volatility and squeeze phases.
With the Squeeze Momentum Indicator , you can take your trading strategy to the next level. Thanks to its clear design, dynamic range visualization, and innovative methods, you’ll recognize breakout opportunities earlier and trade with greater precision. Try it out and experience its user-friendliness and effectiveness for yourself!

The indicator compares the current bar's volume to the average volume of previous bars over the specified lookback period.
It also evaluates the price range (high - low) of the current bar against the previous bar.
If both volume and price range exceed their respective thresholds, a breakout condition is flagged.
Bullish spikes are displayed with upward-pointing diamonds below the bars, while bearish spikes use downward-pointing diamonds above the bars.
Optional labels show detailed percentage increases for both metrics.
Customization Options:
// Inputs
volumeIncreaseThreshold = input.float(50, "Volume Increase Threshold (%)", minval=0, step=5)
rangeIncreaseThreshold = input.float(200, "Price Range Increase Threshold (%)", minval=0, step=5)
lookbackPeriod = input.int(5, "Volume Lookback Period", minval=1, maxval=50)
showLastLabel = input.bool(false, "Show Only Last Label")
Alerts Configuration:
Bullish Volume Breakout: Triggered when a bullish spike is detected.
Bearish Volume Breakout: Triggered when a bearish spike is detected.
Enhance your trading strategy by detecting high-probability breakout opportunities with this reliable indicator!
ATR ReadoutDisplays a readout on the bottom right corner of the screen displaying ATR average (not of the individual candlestick, but of the current rolling period, including the candlestick in question).
Due to restrictions with Pine Script (or my knowledge thereof) only the current and previous candlestick data is shown, rather than the one currently hovered over.
The data is derived via the standard calculation for ATR.
Using this, one can quickly and easily get the proper data needed to calculate one's stop loss, rather than having to analyze the line graph of the basic ATR indicator.
Settings are implemented to change certain variables to your liking.

Williams BBDiv Signal [trade_lexx]📈 Williams BBDiv Signal — Improve your trading strategy with accurate signals!
Introducing Williams BBDiv Signal , an advanced trading indicator designed for a comprehensive analysis of market conditions. This indicator combines Williams%R with Bollinger Bands, providing traders with a powerful tool for generating buy and sell signals, as well as detecting divergences. It is ideal for traders who need an advantage in detecting changing trends and market conditions.
🔍 How signals work
— A buy signal is generated when the Williams %R line crosses the lower Bollinger Bands band from bottom to top. This indicates that the market may be oversold and ready for a rebound. They are displayed as green triangles located under the Williams %R graph. On the main chart, buy signals are displayed as green triangles labeled "Buy" under candlesticks.
— A sell signal is generated when the Williams %R line crosses the upper Bollinger Bands band from top to bottom. This indicates that the market may be overbought and ready for a correction. They are displayed as red triangles located above the Williams %R chart. On the main chart, the sell signals are displayed as red triangles with the word "Sell" above the candlesticks.
— Minimum Bars Between Signals
The user can adjust the minimum number of bars between the signals to avoid false signals. This helps to filter out noise and improve signal quality.
— Mode "Wait for Opposite Signal"
In this mode, buy and sell signals are generated only after receiving the opposite signal. This adds an additional level of filtering and helps to avoid false alarms.
— Mode "Overbought and Oversold Zones"
A buy signal is generated only when Williams %R is below the -80 level (Lower Band). A sell signal is generated only when Williams %R is above -20 (Upper Band).
📊 Divergences
— Bullish divergence occurs when Williams%R shows a higher low while price shows a lower low. This indicates a possible upward reversal. They are displayed as green lines and labels labeled "Bull" on the Williams %R chart. On the main chart, bullish divergences are displayed as green triangles labeled "Bull" under candlesticks.
— A bearish divergence occurs when Williams %R shows a lower high, while the price shows a higher high. This indicates a possible downward reversal. They are displayed as red lines and labels labeled "Bear" on the Williams %R chart. On the main chart, bearish divergences are displayed as red triangles with the word "Bear" above the candlesticks.
— 🔌Connector Signal🔌 and 🔌Connector Divergence🔌

Kernel Regression Envelope with SMI OscillatorThis script combines the predictive capabilities of the **Nadaraya-Watson estimator**, implemented by the esteemed jdehorty (credit to him for his excellent work on the `KernelFunctions` library and the original Nadaraya-Watson Envelope indicator), with the confirmation strength of the **Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI)** to create a dynamic trend reversal strategy. The core idea is to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions using the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and then confirm these signals with the SMI before entering a trade.
**Understanding the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope:**
The Nadaraya-Watson estimator is a non-parametric regression technique that essentially calculates a weighted average of past price data to estimate the current underlying trend. Unlike simple moving averages that give equal weight to all past data within a defined period, the Nadaraya-Watson estimator uses a **kernel function** (in this case, the Rational Quadratic Kernel) to assign weights. The key parameters influencing this estimation are:
* **Lookback Window (h):** This determines how many historical bars are considered for the estimation. A larger window results in a smoother estimation, while a smaller window makes it more reactive to recent price changes.
* **Relative Weighting (alpha):** This parameter controls the influence of different time frames in the estimation. Lower values emphasize longer-term price action, while higher values make the estimator more sensitive to shorter-term movements.
* **Start Regression at Bar (x\_0):** This allows you to exclude the potentially volatile initial bars of a chart from the calculation, leading to a more stable estimation.
The script calculates the Nadaraya-Watson estimation for the closing price (`yhat_close`), as well as the highs (`yhat_high`) and lows (`yhat_low`). The `yhat_close` is then used as the central trend line.
**Dynamic Envelope Bands with ATR:**
To identify potential entry and exit points around the Nadaraya-Watson estimation, the script uses **Average True Range (ATR)** to create dynamic envelope bands. ATR measures the volatility of the price. By multiplying the ATR by different factors (`nearFactor` and `farFactor`), we create multiple bands:
* **Near Bands:** These are closer to the Nadaraya-Watson estimation and are intended to identify potential immediate overbought or oversold zones.
* **Far Bands:** These are further away and can act as potential take-profit or stop-loss levels, representing more extreme price extensions.
The script calculates both near and far upper and lower bands, as well as an average between the near and far bands. This provides a nuanced view of potential support and resistance levels around the estimated trend.
**Confirming Reversals with the Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI):**
While the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope identifies potential overextended conditions, the **Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI)** is used to confirm a potential trend reversal. The SMI, unlike a traditional stochastic oscillator, oscillates around a zero line. It measures the location of the current closing price relative to the median of the high/low range over a specified period.
The script calculates the SMI on a **higher timeframe** (defined by the "Timeframe" input) to gain a broader perspective on the market momentum. This helps to filter out potential whipsaws and false signals that might occur on the current chart's timeframe. The SMI calculation involves:
* **%K Length:** The lookback period for calculating the highest high and lowest low.
* **%D Length:** The period for smoothing the relative range.
* **EMA Length:** The period for smoothing the SMI itself.
The script uses a double EMA for smoothing within the SMI calculation for added smoothness.
**How the Indicators Work Together in the Strategy:**
The strategy enters a long position when:
1. The closing price crosses below the **near lower band** of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope, suggesting a potential oversold condition.
2. The SMI crosses above its EMA, indicating positive momentum.
3. The SMI value is below -50, further supporting the oversold idea on the higher timeframe.
Conversely, the strategy enters a short position when:
1. The closing price crosses above the **near upper band** of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope, suggesting a potential overbought condition.
2. The SMI crosses below its EMA, indicating negative momentum.
3. The SMI value is above 50, further supporting the overbought idea on the higher timeframe.
Trades are closed when the price crosses the **far band** in the opposite direction of the trade. A stop-loss is also implemented based on a fixed value.
**In essence:** The Nadaraya-Watson Envelope identifies areas where the price might be deviating significantly from its estimated trend. The SMI, calculated on a higher timeframe, then acts as a confirmation signal, suggesting that the momentum is shifting in the direction of a potential reversal. The ATR-based bands provide dynamic entry and exit points based on the current volatility.
**How to Use the Script:**
1. **Apply the script to your chart.**
2. **Adjust the "Kernel Settings":**
* **Lookback Window (h):** Experiment with different values to find the smoothness that best suits the asset and timeframe you are trading. Lower values make the envelope more reactive, while higher values make it smoother.
* **Relative Weighting (alpha):** Adjust to control the influence of different timeframes on the Nadaraya-Watson estimation.
* **Start Regression at Bar (x\_0):** Increase this value if you want to exclude the initial, potentially volatile, bars from the calculation.
* **Stoploss:** Set your desired stop-loss value.
3. **Adjust the "SMI" settings:**
* **%K Length, %D Length, EMA Length:** These parameters control the sensitivity and smoothness of the SMI. Experiment to find settings that work well for your trading style.
* **Timeframe:** Select the higher timeframe you want to use for SMI confirmation.
4. **Adjust the "ATR Length" and "Near/Far ATR Factor":** These settings control the width and sensitivity of the envelope bands. Smaller ATR lengths make the bands more reactive to recent volatility.
5. **Customize the "Color Settings"** to your preference.
6. **Observe the plots:**
* The **Nadaraya-Watson Estimation (yhat)** line represents the estimated underlying trend.
* The **near and far upper and lower bands** visualize potential overbought and oversold zones based on the ATR.
* The **fill areas** highlight the regions between the near and far bands.
7. **Look for entry signals:** A long entry is considered when the price touches or crosses below the lower near band and the SMI confirms upward momentum. A short entry is considered when the price touches or crosses above the upper near band and the SMI confirms downward momentum.
8. **Manage your trades:** The script provides exit signals when the price crosses the far band. The fixed stop-loss will also close trades if the price moves against your position.
**Justification for Combining Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and SMI:**
The combination of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and the SMI provides a more robust approach to identifying potential trend reversals compared to using either indicator in isolation. The Nadaraya-Watson Envelope excels at identifying potential areas where the price is overextended relative to its recent history. However, relying solely on the envelope can lead to false signals, especially in choppy or volatile markets. By incorporating the SMI as a confirmation tool, we add a momentum filter that helps to validate the potential reversals signaled by the envelope. The higher timeframe SMI further helps to filter out noise and focus on more significant shifts in momentum. The ATR-based bands add a dynamic element to the entry and exit points, adapting to the current market volatility. This mashup aims to leverage the strengths of each indicator to create a more reliable trading strategy.
Uptrick: Smart BoundariesThis script is an indicator that combines the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and Bollinger Bands to highlight potential points where price momentum and volatility may both be at extreme levels. Below is a detailed explanation of its components, how it calculates signals, and why these two indicators have been merged into one tool. This script is intended solely for educational purposes and for traders who want to explore the combined use of momentum and volatility measures. Please remember that no single indicator guarantees profitable results.
Purpose of This Script
This script is designed to serve as a concise, all-in-one tool for traders seeking to track both momentum and volatility extremes in real time. By overlaying RSI signals with Bollinger Band boundaries, it helps users quickly identify points on a chart where price movement may be highly stretched. The goal is to offer a clearer snapshot of potential overbought or oversold conditions without requiring two separate indicators. Additionally, its optional pyramiding feature enables users to manage how many times they initiate trades when signals repeat in the same direction. Through these combined functions, the script aims to streamline technical analysis by consolidating two popular measures—momentum via RSI and volatility via Bollinger Bands—into a single, manageable interface.
1. Why Combine RSI and Bollinger Bands
• RSI (Relative Strength Index): This is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and magnitude of recent price changes. It typically ranges between 0 and 100. Traders often watch for RSI crossing into “overbought” or “oversold” levels because it may indicate a potential shift in momentum.
• Bollinger Bands: These bands are plotted around a moving average, using a standard deviation multiplier to create an upper and lower boundary. They help illustrate how volatile the price has been relative to its recent average. When price moves outside these boundaries, some traders see it as a sign the price may be overstretched and could revert closer to the average.
Combining these two can be useful because it blends two different perspectives on market movement. RSI attempts to identify momentum extremes, while Bollinger Bands track volatility extremes. By looking for moments when both conditions agree, the script tries to highlight points where price might be unusually stretched in terms of both momentum and volatility.
2. How Signals Are Generated
• Buy Condition:
- RSI dips below a specified “oversold” level (for example, 30 by default).
- Price closes below the lower Bollinger Band.
When these occur together, the script draws a label indicating a potential bullish opportunity. The underlying reasoning is that momentum (RSI) suggests a stronger-than-usual sell-off, and price is also stretched below the lower Bollinger Band.
• Sell Condition:
- RSI rises above a specified “overbought” level (for example, 70 by default).
- Price closes above the upper Bollinger Band.
When these occur together, a label is plotted for a potential bearish opportunity. The rationale is that momentum (RSI) may be overheated, and the price is trading outside the top of its volatility range.
3. Pyramiding Logic and Trade Count Management
• Pyramiding refers to taking multiple positions in the same direction when signals keep firing. While some traders prefer just one position per signal, others like to scale into a trade if the market keeps pushing in their favor.
• This script uses variables that keep track of how many recent buy or sell signals have fired. If the count reaches a user-defined maximum, no more signals of that type will trigger additional labels. This protects traders from over-committing to one direction if the market conditions remain “extreme” for a prolonged period.
• If you disable the pyramiding feature, the script will only plot one label per side until the condition resets (i.e., until RSI and price conditions are no longer met).
4. Labels and Visual Feedback
• Whenever a buy or sell condition appears, the script plots a label directly on the chart:
- Buy labels under the price bar.
- Sell labels above the price bar.
These labels make it easier to review where both RSI and Bollinger Band conditions align. It can be helpful for visually scanning the chart to see if the signals show any patterns related to market reversals or trend continuations.
• The Bollinger Bands themselves are plotted so traders can see when the price is approaching or exceeding the upper or lower band. Watching the RSI and Bollinger Band plots simultaneously can give traders more context for each signal.
5. Originality and Usefulness
This script provides a distinct approach by merging two well-established concepts—RSI and Bollinger Bands—within a single framework, complemented by optional pyramiding controls. Rather than using each indicator separately, it attempts to uncover moments when momentum signals from RSI align with volatility extremes highlighted by Bollinger Bands. This combined perspective can aid in spotting areas of possible overextension in price. Additionally, the built-in pyramiding mechanism offers a method to manage multiple signals in the same direction, allowing users to adjust how aggressively they scale into trades. By integrating these elements together, the script aims to deliver a tool that caters to diverse trading styles while remaining straightforward to configure and interpret.
6. How to Use the Indicator
• Configure the Inputs:
- RSI Length (the lookback period used for the RSI calculation).
- RSI Overbought and Oversold Levels.
- Bollinger Bands Length and Multiplier (defines the moving average period and the degree of deviation).
- Option to reduce pyramiding.
• Set Alerts (Optional):
- You can create TradingView alerts for when these conditions occur, so you do not have to monitor the chart constantly. Choose the buy or sell alert conditions in your alert settings.
• Integration in a Trading Plan:
- This script alone is not a complete trading system. Consider combining it with other forms of analysis, such as support and resistance, volume profiles, or candlestick patterns. Thorough research, testing on historical data, and risk management are always recommended.
7. No Performance Guarantees
• This script does not promise any specific trading results. It is crucial to remember that no single indicator can accurately predict future market movements all the time. The script simply tries to highlight moments when two well-known indicators both point to an extreme condition.
• Actual trading decisions should factor in a range of market information, including personal risk tolerance and broader market conditions.
8. Purpose and Limitations
• Purpose:
- Provide a combined view of momentum (RSI) and volatility (Bollinger Bands) in a single script.
- Assist in spotting times when price may be at an extreme.
- Offer a configurable system for labeling potential buy or sell points based on these extremes.
• Limitations:
- Overbought and oversold conditions can persist for an extended period in trending markets.
- Bollinger Band breakouts do not always result in immediate reversals. Sometimes price keeps moving in the same direction.
- The script does not include a built-in exit strategy or risk management rules. Traders must handle these themselves.
Additional Disclosures
This script is published open-source and does not rely on any external or private libraries. It does not use lookahead methods or repaint signals; all calculations are performed on the current bar without referencing future data. Furthermore, the script is designed for standard candlestick or bar charts rather than non-standard chart types (e.g., Heikin Ashi, Renko). Traders should keep in mind that while the script can help locate potential momentum and volatility extremes, it does not include an exit strategy or account for factors like slippage or commission. All code comes from built-in Pine Script functions and standard formulas for RSI and Bollinger Bands. Anyone reviewing or modifying this script should exercise caution and incorporate proper risk management when applying it to their own trading.
Calculation Details
The script computes RSI by examining a user-defined number of prior bars (the RSI Length) and determining the average of up-moves relative to the average of down-moves over that period. This ratio is then scaled to a 0–100 range, so lower values typically indicate stronger downward momentum, while higher values suggest stronger upward momentum. In parallel, Bollinger Bands are generated by first calculating a simple moving average (SMA) of the closing price for the user-specified length. The script then measures the standard deviation of closing prices over the same period and multiplies it by the chosen factor (the Bollinger Bands Multiplier) to form the upper and lower boundaries around the SMA. These two measures are checked in tandem: if the RSI dips below a certain oversold threshold and price trades below the lower Bollinger Band, a condition is met that may imply a strong short-term sell-off; similarly, if the RSI surpasses the overbought threshold and price rises above the upper Band, it may indicate an overextended move to the upside. The pyramiding counters track how many of these signals occur in sequence, preventing excessive stacking of labels on the chart if conditions remain extreme for multiple bars.
Conclusion
This indicator aims to provide a more complete view of potential market extremes by overlaying the RSI’s momentum readings on top of Bollinger Band volatility signals. By doing so, it attempts to help traders see when both indicators suggest that the market might be oversold or overbought. The optional reduced pyramiding logic further refines how many signals appear, giving users the choice of a single entry or multiple scaling entries. It does not claim any guaranteed success or predictive power, but rather serves as a tool for those wanting to explore this combined approach. Always be cautious and consider multiple factors before placing any trades.
Dynamic Volatility Heatmap (ATR)How the Script Works
Dynamic Thresholds:
atrLow and atrHigh are calculated as percentiles (20% and 80% by default) of ATR values over the last double the ATR period (28 days if ATR is 14).
This creates thresholds that adapt to recent market conditions.
Background Heatmap:
Green: ATR is below the low threshold, indicating calm markets (options are cheap).
Red: ATR is above the high threshold, signaling elevated volatility (options are expensive).
Yellow: ATR is within the normal range, showing neutral market conditions.
Overlay Lines:
]Dynamic lines for atrLow and atrHigh help visualize thresholds on the chart.
Interpretation for Trading
Green Zone (Low ATR):
Interpretation: The market is calm, and options are likely underpriced.
Trade Setup: Favor buying options (e.g., long straddles or long calls/puts) to profit from potential volatility increases.
Red Zone (High ATR):
Interpretation: The market is volatile, and options are likely overpriced.
Trade Setup: Favor selling options (e.g., credit spreads or iron condors) to benefit from volatility decay.
Yellow Zone (Neutral ATR):
Interpretation: Volatility is within typical levels, offering no strong signal.
Trade Setup: Combine with other indicators, such as gamma levels or Bollinger Bands, for confirmation.
5. Enhancing with Other Indicators
Combine with Bollinger Bands:
Overlay Bollinger Bands to identify price extremes and align them with volatility heatmap signals.
Enhanced Price Z-Score OscillatorThe Enhanced Price Z-Score Oscillator by tkarolak is a powerful tool that transforms raw price data into an easy-to-understand statistical visualization using Z-Score-derived candlesticks. Simply put, it shows how far prices stray from their average in terms of standard deviations (Z-Scores), helping traders identify when prices are unusually high (overbought) or unusually low (oversold).
The indicator’s default feature displays Z-Score Candlesticks, where each candle reflects the statistical “distance” of the open, high, low, and close prices from their average. This creates a visual map of market extremes and potential reversal points. For added flexibility, you can also switch to Z-Score line plots based on either Close prices or OHLC4 averages.
With clear threshold lines (±2σ and ±3σ) marking moderate and extreme price deviations, and color-coded zones to highlight overbought and oversold areas, the oscillator simplifies complex statistical concepts into actionable trading insights.

Filtered ATR with EMA OverlayFiltered ATR with EMA Overlay is an advanced volatility indicator designed to provide a more accurate representation of market conditions by smoothing the standard Average True Range (ATR). This is achieved by filtering out extreme price movements and abnormal bars that can distort traditional ATR calculations.
The indicator applies an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to the filtered ATR, creating a dual-layered system that highlights periods of increased or decreased volatility.
Key Features:
Filtered ATR: Filters out extreme bars, reducing noise and making the ATR line more reliable.
EMA Overlay: An EMA (default period of 10) is applied to the filtered ATR, allowing traders to track average volatility trends.
Volatility Signals:
Filtered ATR > EMA(10): Indicates higher-than-average volatility. This often correlates with trend breakouts or strong price movements.
Filtered ATR < EMA(10): Suggests reduced volatility, signaling potential consolidation or sideways price action.
Parameters:
atrLength (Default: 5):
The number of bars used to calculate the ATR. A shorter period (e.g., 3-5) responds faster to price changes, while a longer period (e.g., 10-14) provides smoother results.
multiplier (Default: 1.8):
Controls the sensitivity of the filter. A lower multiplier (e.g., 1.5) filters out more bars, resulting in smoother ATR. Higher values (e.g., 2.0) allow more bars to pass through, retaining more price volatility.
maxIterations (Default: 20):
The maximum number of bars processed to detect abnormal values. Increasing this may improve accuracy at the cost of performance.
ema10Period (Default: 10):
The period for the Exponential Moving Average applied to the filtered ATR. Shorter periods provide faster signals, while longer periods give smoother, lagging signals.
Trading Strategies:
1. Breakout Strategy:
When filtered ATR crosses above EMA(10):
Enter long positions when price breaks above a key resistance level.
Higher volatility suggests strong price action and momentum.
When filtered ATR drops below EMA(10):
Exit positions or tighten stop-loss orders as volatility decreases.
Lower volatility may indicate consolidation or trend exhaustion.
2. Trend Following Strategy:
Use the filtered ATR line to track overall volatility.
If filtered ATR consistently stays above EMA: Hold positions or add to trades.
If filtered ATR remains below EMA: Reduce position size or stay out of trades.
3. Mean Reversion Strategy:
When filtered ATR spikes significantly above EMA, it may indicate market overreaction.
Look for price to revert to the mean once ATR returns below the EMA.
4. Stop-Loss Adjustment:
As volatility increases (ATR above EMA), widen stop-loss levels to avoid being stopped out by random fluctuations.
In low volatility (ATR below EMA), tighten stop-losses to minimize losses during low activity periods.
Benefits:
Reduced Noise: By filtering abnormal bars, the indicator provides cleaner signals.
Better Trend Detection: EMA smoothing highlights volatility trends.
Adaptable: The indicator can be customized for scalping, day trading, or swing trading.
Intuitive Visualization: Traders can visually see volatility shifts and adjust strategies in real-time.
Best Practices:
Timeframes: Works effectively on all timeframes, but higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) yield more reliable signals.
Markets: Suitable for forex, crypto, stocks, and commodities.
Combining Indicators: Use in combination with RSI, Moving Averages, Bollinger Bands, or price action analysis for stronger signals.
How It Works (Under the Hood):
The script calculates the Daily Range (High - Low) for each bar.
The largest and smallest bars are filtered out if their difference exceeds the multiplier (default 1.8).
The remaining bars are averaged to generate the filtered ATR.
An EMA(10) is then applied to the filtered ATR for smoother visualization.
Breadth of Volatility The Breadth of Volatility (BoV) is an indicator designed to help traders understand the activity and volatility of the market. It focuses on analyzing how fast prices are moving and how much trading volume is driving those movements. By combining these two factors—price speed and volume strength—the BoV provides a single value that reflects the current level of market activity. This can help traders identify when the market is particularly active or calm, which is useful for planning trading strategies.
The speed component of the BoV measures how quickly prices are moving compared to their recent average. This is done by using a metric called the Average True Range (ATR), which calculates the typical size of price movements over a specific period. The BoV compares the current price change to this average, showing whether the market is moving faster or slower than usual. Faster price movements generally indicate higher volatility, which might signal opportunities for active traders.
The strength component focuses on the role of trading volume in price changes. It multiplies the trading volume by the size of the price movement to create a value called volume strength. This value is then compared to the highest volume strength seen over a recent period, which helps gauge whether the current price action is being strongly supported by trading activity. When the strength value is high, it suggests that market participants are actively trading and supporting the price movement.
These two components—speed and strength—are averaged to calculate the Breadth of Volatility value. While the formula also includes a placeholder for a third component (related to fundamental analysis), it is currently inactive and does not influence the final value. The BoV is displayed as a line on a chart, with a zero line for reference. Positive BoV values indicate heightened market activity and volatility, while values near zero suggest a quieter market. This indicator is particularly helpful for new traders to monitor market conditions and adjust their strategies accordingly, whether they’re focusing on trend-following or waiting for calmer periods for more conservative trades.
