Risk Recommender — (Heatmap)📊 Risk Recommender — Per-Trade & Annualized (Heatmap Columns)
Estimate the optimal risk percentage for any market regime.
This tool dynamically recommends how much of your account equity to risk — either per trade or at a portfolio (annualized) level — using volatility as the guide.
⚙️ How it works
Two distinct modes give you flexibility:
1️⃣ Per-Trade (ATR-based)
• Calculates the current Average True Range (ATR) compared to its long-term baseline.
• When volatility is high (ATR ↑), risk per trade decreases to maintain constant dollar risk.
• When volatility is low (ATR ↓), risk per trade increases within your defined floor and ceiling.
• The display is normalized by stop distance (× ATR) and smoothed to avoid noise.
2️⃣ Annualized (Volatility Targeting)
• Computes realized volatility (standard deviation of log returns) and an EWMA forecast of future volatility.
• Blends current and forecast volatilities to estimate “effective” volatility.
• Scales your base risk so that portfolio volatility converges toward your chosen annual target (e.g., 20%).
• Useful for portfolio-level or systematic strategies that maintain constant volatility exposure.
🎨 Heatmap Visualization
The vertical column graph acts like a thermometer:
• 🟥 Red → “Reduce risk” (volatility high).
• 🟩 Green → “Increase risk” (volatility low).
• Smoothed and bounded between your Floor and Ceiling risk levels.
• Optional dotted guides mark those bounds.
• Label shows the current mode, recommended risk %, and key metrics (ATR ratio or effective volatility).
🔧 Key Inputs
• Base max risk per trade (%) — your normal per-trade risk budget.
• ATR length / Baseline ATR length — control sensitivity to short- vs. long-term volatility.
• Target annualized volatility (%) — portfolio volatility target for quant mode.
• λ (lambda) — smoothing factor for the EWMA volatility forecast (0.90–0.99 typical).
• Floor & Ceiling — clamps the output to avoid extreme sizing.
• Smoothing & Hysteresis — prevent rapid changes in risk recommendations.
🧮 Interpreting the Output
• “Recommended Risk (%)” = suggested portion of equity to risk on the next trade (or current exposure).
• In Per-Trade mode: reflects current ATR ÷ baseline ATR .
• In Annualized mode: reflects target volatility ÷ effective volatility .
• Use the color and height of the column as a quick visual cue for aggressiveness.
💡 Typical Use Cases
• Position-sizing overlay for discretionary traders.
• Volatility-targeting component for algorithmic or multi-asset systems.
• Educational tool to understand how volatility governs prudent risk management.
📘 Notes
• This indicator provides risk suggestions only ; it does not place trades.
• Works on any symbol or timeframe.
• Combine with your own strategy or alerts for full automation.
• All calculations use built-in Pine functions; no proprietary logic.

Market Pressure Differential (MPD) [SharpStrat]Market Pressure Differential (MPD)
Concept & Purpose
The Market Pressure Differential (MPD) is a proprietary indicator designed to measure the internal balance of buying and selling pressure directly on the price chart.
Unlike standard momentum or trend indicators, MPD analyzes the structural behavior of each candle—its body, wicks, and overall range—to determine whether the market is dominated by expansion (buying aggression) or contraction (selling absorption).
This indicator provides a visual overlay of market pressure that adapts dynamically to volatility, helping traders see real-time shifts in participation intensity without using oscillators.
In simple terms:
When MPD expands upward → buyer pressure dominates.
When MPD contracts downward → seller pressure dominates.
Calculation Overview
MPD uses a structural candle formula to compute directional pressure:
Body Ratio = (Close − Open) / (High − Low)
Wick Differential = (Lower Wick − Upper Wick) / (High − Low)
Raw Pressure = (Body Ratio × Body Weight) + (Wick Differential × Wick Weight)
Then it applies:
EMA smoothing (to stabilize short-term noise)
Standard deviation normalization (to maintain consistent scaling)
ATR projection (to adapt the signal visually to volatility)
This produces the MPD projection line and the pressure ribbon, drawn directly on the main chart.
Customizable Inputs
Users can adjust color schemes, EMA smoothing length, ATR parameters, normalization length, and body/wick weighting to adapt the indicator’s sensitivity and aesthetic to different markets or chart themes.
How to Use
The Market Pressure Differential (MPD) visualizes the real-time balance between buying and selling pressure. It should be used as a contextual bias tool, not a standalone signal generator.
The white line represents the MPD projection, showing how market pressure evolves in real time based on candle structure and volatility.
The red line represents the ATR envelope, which defines the market’s expected volatility range.
MPD reacts quickly to candle structure, so trend bias is based on how its projection behaves relative to the ATR envelope:
Above the ATR band → positive pressure and bullish bias.
Below the ATR band → negative pressure and bearish bias.
Hovering near the ATR band → neutral or indecisive conditions.
The MPD percentage in the label represents the normalized strength of pressure relative to recent volatility.
Positive % = buying dominance.
Negative % = selling dominance.
Higher absolute values = stronger momentum compared to volatility.
To trade with MPD:
Watch candle colors and the projection line — green or positive % shows buyer control, red or negative % shows seller control.
Note transitions above or below the ATR level for early signs of momentum shifts.
Combine MPD signals with price structure, key levels, or volume for confirmation.
This helps reveal which side controls the market and whether that pressure is strong enough to overcome typical volatility.

US Opening 5-Minute Candle HighlighterUS Opening 5-Minute Candle Highlighter — True RVOL (Two-Tier + Label)
What it does (in plain English)
This indicator finds the first 5-minute bar of the US cash session (09:30–09:35 ET) and highlights it when the candle has the specific “strong open” look you want:
Opens near the low of its own range, and
Closes near the high of its own range, and
Has a decisive real body (not a wick-y doji), and
(Optionally) is a green candle, and
Meets a TRUE opening-bar RVOL filter (compares today’s 09:30–09:35 volume only to prior sessions’ 09:30–09:35 volumes).
You get two visual intensities based on opening RVOL:
Tier-1 (≥ threshold 1, default 1.0×) → light green highlight + lime arrow
Tier-2 (≥ threshold 2, default 1.5×) → darker green highlight + green arrow
An RVOL label (e.g., RVOL 1.84x) can be shown above or below the opening bar.
Designed for 5-minute charts. On other timeframes the “opening bar” will be the bar that starts at 09:30 on that timeframe (e.g., 15-minute 09:30–09:45). For best results keep the chart on 5m.
How the pattern is defined
For the opening 5-minute bar, we compute:
Range = high − low
Body = |close − open|
Then we measure where the open and close sit within the bar’s own range on a 0→1 scale:
0 means exactly at the low
1 means exactly at the high
Using two quantiles:
Open ≤ position in range (0–1) (default 0.20)
Example: 0.20 means “open must be in the lowest 20% of the bar’s range.”
Close ≥ position in range (0–1) (default 0.80)
Example: 0.80 means “close must be in the top 20% of the bar’s range.”
This keeps the logic range-normalized so it adapts across different tickers and vol regimes (you’re not using fixed cents or % of price).
Body ≥ fraction of range (0–1) (default 0.55)
Requires the real body to be at least that fraction of the total range.
0.55 = body fills ≥ 55% of the candle.
Purpose: filter out indecisive, wick-heavy bars.
Raise to 0.7–0.8 for only the fattest thrusts; lower to 0.3–0.4 to admit more bars.
Require green candle? (default ON)
If ON, close > open must be true. Turn OFF if you also want to catch strong red opens for shorts.
Minimum range (ticks)
Ignore tiny, illiquid opens: e.g., set to 2–5 ticks to suppress micro bars.
TRUE Opening-Bar RVOL (why it’s “true”)
Most “RVOL” compares against any recent bars, which isn’t fair at the open.
This indicator calculates only against prior opening bars:
At 09:30–09:35 ET, take today’s opening 5-minute volume.
Compare it to the average of the last N sessions’ opening 5-minute volumes.
RVOL = today_open_volume / average_prior_open_volumes.
So:
1.0× = equal to average prior opens.
1.5× = 150% of average prior opens.
2.0× = double the typical opening participation.
A minimum prior samples guard (default 10) ensures you don’t judge with too little history. Until enough samples exist, the RVOL gate won’t pass (you can disable RVOL temporarily if needed).
Visuals & tiers
Light green highlight + lime arrow → price filters pass and RVOL ≥ Tier-1 (default 1.0×)
Dark green highlight + green arrow → price filters pass and RVOL ≥ Tier-2 (default 1.5×)
Optional bar paint in matching green tones for extra visibility.
Optional RVOL label (e.g., RVOL 1.84x) above or below the opening bar.
You can show the label only when the candle qualifies, or on every open.
Inputs (step-by-step)
Price-action filters
Open ≤ position in range (0–1): default 0.20. Smaller = stricter (must open nearer the low).
Close ≥ position in range (0–1): default 0.80. Larger = stricter (must close nearer the high).
Body ≥ fraction of range (0–1): default 0.55. Raise to demand a “fatter” body.
Require green candle?: default ON. Turn OFF to also mark bearish thrusts.
Minimum range (ticks): default 0. Set to 2–5 for liquid mid/large caps.
Time settings
Timezone: default America/New_York. Leave as is for US equities.
Start hour / minute: defaults 09:30. The bar that starts at this time is evaluated.
TRUE Opening-Bar RVOL (two-tier)
Require TRUE opening-bar RVOL?: ON = must pass Tier-1 to highlight; OFF = price filters alone can highlight (still shows Tier-2 when hit).
RVOL lookback (prior opens count): default 20. How many prior openings to average.
Min prior opens required: default 10. Warm-up guard.
Tier-1 RVOL threshold (× avg): default 1.00× (light green).
Tier-2 RVOL threshold (× avg): default 1.50× (dark green).
Display
Also paint candle body?: OFF by default. Turn ON for instant visibility on a chart wall.
Arrow size: tiny/small/normal/large.
Light/Dark opacity: tune highlight strength.
Show RVOL label?: ON/OFF.
Show label only when candle qualifies?: ON by default; OFF to see RVOL every open.
Label position: Above candle or Below candle.
Label size: tiny/small/normal/large.
How to use (quick start)
Apply to a 5-minute chart.
Keep defaults: Open ≤ 0.20, Close ≥ 0.80, Body ≥ 0.55, Require green ON.
Turn RVOL required ON, with Tier-1 = 1.0×, Tier-2 = 1.5×, Lookback = 20, Min prior = 10.
Optional: enable Paint bar and set Arrow size = large for monitor-wall visibility.
Optional: show RVOL label below the bar to keep wicks clean.
Interpretation:
Dark green = A+ opening thrust with strong participation (≥ Tier-2).
Light green = Valid opening thrust with at least average participation (≥ Tier-1).
No highlight = one or more filters failed (quantiles, body, green, range, or RVOL if required).
Alerts
Two alert conditions are included:
Opening 5m Match — Tier-2 RVOL → fires when the opening candle passes price filters and RVOL ≥ Tier-2.
Opening 5m Match — Tier-1 RVOL → fires when the opening candle passes price filters and RVOL ≥ Tier-1 (but < Tier-2).
Recommended alert settings
Condition: choose the script + desired tier.
Options: Once Per Bar Close (you want the confirmed 09:30–09:35 bar).
Set your watchlist to symbols of interest (themes/sectors) and let the alerts pull you to the right charts.
Recommended starting values
Quantiles: Open ≤ 0.20, Close ≥ 0.80
Body fraction: 0.55
Require green: ON
RVOL: Required ON, Tier-1 = 1.0×, Tier-2 = 1.5×, Lookback 20, Min prior 10
Display: Paint bar ON, Arrow large, Label ON, Below candle
Tune tighter for A-plus selectivity:
Open ≤ 0.15, Close ≥ 0.85, Body ≥ 0.65, Tier-2 2.0×.
Notes, tips & limitations
5-minute timeframe is the intended use. On higher TFs, the 09:30 bar spans more than 5 minutes; geometry may not reflect the first 5 minutes alone.
RTH only: The opening detection looks at the clock (09:30 ET). Pre-market bars are ignored for the signal and for RVOL history.
Warm-up period: Until you have Min prior opens required samples, the RVOL gate won’t pass. You can temporarily toggle RVOL off.
DST & timezone: Leave timezone on America/New_York for US equities. If you trade non-US exchanges, set the appropriate TZ and opening time.
Illiquid tickers: Use Minimum range (ticks) and require RVOL to reduce noise.
No strategy orders: This is a visual/alert tool. Combine with your execution and risk plan.
Why this is useful on multi-monitor setups
Instant pattern recognition: the two-shade green makes A vs A+ opens pop at a glance.
Adaptive thresholds: quantiles & body are within-bar, so it works across $5 and $500 names.
Fair volume test: TRUE opening RVOL avoids comparing to pre-market or midday bars.
Optional labels: glanceable RVOL x-value helps triage the strongest themes quickly.

Dominant DATR [CHE] Dominant DATR — Directional ATR stream with dominant-side EMA, bands, labels, and alerts
Summary
Dominant DATR builds two directional volatility streams from the true range, assigns each bar’s range to the up or down side based on the sign of the close-to-close move, and then tracks the dominant side through an exponential average. A rolling band around the dominant stream defines recent extremes, while optional gradient coloring reflects relative magnitude. Swing-based labels mark new higher highs or lower lows on the dominant stream, and alerts can be enabled for swings, zero-line crossings, and band breakouts. The result is a compact pane that highlights regime bias and intensity without relying on price overlays.
Motivation: Why this design?
Conventional ATR treats all range as symmetric, which can mask directional pressure, cause late regime shifts, and produce frequent false flips during noisy phases. This design separates the range into up and down contributions, then emphasizes whichever side is stronger. A single smoothed dominant stream clarifies bias, while the band and swing markers help distinguish continuation from exhaustion. Optional normalization by close makes the metric comparable across instruments with different price scales.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Classic ATR or a basic EMA of price.
Architecture differences:
Directional weighting of range using positive and negative close-to-close moves.
Separate moving averages for up and down contributions combined into one dominant stream.
Rolling highest and lowest of the dominant stream to form a band.
Optional normalization by close, window-based scaling for color intensity, and gamma adjustment for visual contrast.
Event logic for swing highs and lows on the dominant stream, with label buffering and pruning.
Configurable alerts for swings, zero-line crossings, and band breakouts.
Practical effect: You see when volatility is concentrated on one side, how strong that bias currently is, and when the dominant stream pushes through or fails at its recent envelope.
How it works (technical)
Each bar’s move is split into an up component and a down component based on whether the close increased or decreased relative to the prior close. The bar’s true range is proportionally assigned to up or down using those components as weights.
Each side is smoothed with a Wilder-style moving average. The dominant stream is the side with the larger value, recorded as positive for up dominance and negative for down dominance.
The dominant stream is then smoothed with an exponential moving average to reduce noise and provide a responsive yet stable signal line.
A rolling window tracks the highest and lowest values of the dominant EMA to form an envelope. Crossings of these bounds indicate unusual strength or weakness relative to recent history.
For visualization, the absolute value of the dominant EMA is scaled over a lookback window and passed through a gamma curve to modulate gradient intensity. Colors are chosen separately for up and down regimes.
Swing events are detected by comparing the dominant EMA to its recent extremes over a short lookback. Labels are placed when a prior bar set an extreme and the current bar confirms it. A managed array prunes older labels when the user-defined maximum is exceeded.
Alerts mirror these events and also include zero-line crossings and band breakouts. The script does not force closed-bar confirmation; users should configure alert execution timing to suit their workflow.
There are no higher-timeframe requests and no security calls. State is limited to simple arrays for labels and persistent color parameters.
Parameter Guide
Parameter — Effect — Default — Trade-offs/Tips
ATR Length — Smoothing of directional true range streams — fourteen — Longer reduces noise and may delay regime shifts; shorter increases responsiveness.
EMA Length — Smoothing of the dominant stream — twenty-five — Lower values react faster; higher values reduce whipsaw.
Band Length — Window for recent highs and lows of the dominant stream — ten — Short windows flag frequent breakouts; long windows emphasize only exceptional moves.
Normalize by Close — Divide by close price to produce a percent-like scale — false — Useful across assets with very different price levels.
Enable gradient color — Turn on magnitude-based coloring — true — Visual aid only; can be disabled for simplicity.
Gradient window — Lookback used to scale color intensity — one hundred — Larger windows stabilize the color scale.
Gamma (lines) — Adjust gradient intensity curve — zero point eight — Lower values compress variation; higher values expand it.
Gradient transparency — Transparency for gradient plots — zero, between zero and ninety — Higher values mute colors.
Up dark / Up neon — Base and peak colors for up dominance — green tones — Styling only.
Down dark / Down neon — Base and peak colors for down dominance — red tones — Styling only.
Show zero line / Background tint — Visual references for regime — true and false — Background tint can help quick scanning.
Swing length — Bars used to detect swing highs or lows — two — Larger values demand more structure.
Show labels / Max labels / Label offset — Label visibility, cap, and vertical offset — true, two hundred, zero — Increase cap with care to avoid clutter.
Alerts: HH/LL, Zero Cross, Band Break — Toggle alert rules — true, false, false — Enable only what you need.
Reading & Interpretation
The dominant EMA above zero indicates up-side dominance; below zero indicates down-side dominance.
Band lines show recent extremes of the dominant EMA; pushes through the band suggest unusual momentum on the dominant side.
Gradient intensity reflects local magnitude of dominance relative to the chosen window.
HH/LL labels appear when the dominant stream prints a new local extreme in the current regime and that extreme is confirmed on the next bar.
Zero-line crosses suggest regime flips; combine with structure or filters to reduce noise.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Consider entries when the dominant EMA is on the regime side and expands away from zero. Band breakouts add confirmation; structure such as higher highs or lower lows in price can filter signals.
Exits and stops: Tighten exits when the dominant stream stalls near the band or fades toward zero. Opposite swing labels can serve as early caution.
Multi-asset and multi-timeframe: Works across liquid assets and common timeframes. For lower noise instruments, reduce smoothing slightly; for high noise, increase lengths and swing length.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint and confirmation: No security calls and no future-looking references. Swing labels confirm one bar later by design. Real-time crosses can change intra-bar; use bar-close alerts if needed.
Resources: `max_bars_back` is two thousand. The script uses an array for labels with pruning, gradient color computations, and a simple while loop that runs only when the label cap is exceeded.
Known limits: The EMA can lag at sharp turns. Normalization by close changes scale and may affect thresholds. Extremely gappy data can produce abrupt shifts in the dominant side.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Starting point: ATR Length fourteen, EMA Length twenty-five, Band Length ten, Swing Length two, gradient enabled.
Too many flips: Increase EMA Length and swing length, or enable only swing alerts.
Too sluggish: Decrease EMA Length and Band Length.
Inconsistent scales across symbols: Enable Normalize by Close.
Visual clutter: Disable gradient or reduce label cap.

First Passage Time - Distribution AnalysisThe First Passage Time (FPT) Distribution Analysis indicator is a sophisticated probabilistic tool that answers one of the most critical questions in trading: "How long will it take for price to reach my target, and what are the odds of getting there first?"
Unlike traditional technical indicators that focus on what might happen, this indicator tells you when it's likely to happen.
Mathematical Foundation: First Passage Time Theory
What is First Passage Time?
First Passage Time (FPT) is a concept in stochastic processes that measures the time it takes for a random process to reach a specific threshold for the first time. Originally developed in physics and mathematics, FPT has applications in:
Quantitative Finance: Option pricing, risk management, and algorithmic trading
Neuroscience: Modeling neural firing patterns
Biology: Population dynamics and disease spread
Engineering: Reliability analysis and failure prediction
The Mathematics Behind It
This indicator uses Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM), the same stochastic model used in the Black-Scholes option pricing formula:
dS = μS dt + σS dW
Where:
S = Asset price
μ = Drift (trend component)
σ = Volatility (uncertainty component)
dW = Wiener process (random walk)
Through Monte Carlo simulation, the indicator runs 1,000+ price path simulations to statistically determine:
When each threshold (+X% or -X%) is likely to be hit
Which threshold is hit first (directional bias)
How often each scenario occurs (probability distribution)
🎯 How This Indicator Works
Core Algorithm Workflow:
Calculate Historical Statistics
Measures recent price volatility (standard deviation of log returns)
Calculates drift (average directional movement)
Annualizes these metrics for meaningful comparison
Run Monte Carlo Simulations
Generates 1,000+ random price paths based on historical behavior
Tracks when each path hits the upside (+X%) or downside (-X%) threshold
Records which threshold was hit first in each simulation
Aggregate Statistical Results
Calculates percentile distributions (10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th)
Computes "first hit" probabilities (upside vs downside)
Determines average and median time-to-target
Visual Representation
Displays thresholds as horizontal lines
Shows gradient risk zones (purple-to-blue)
Provides comprehensive statistics table
📈 Use Cases
1. Options Trading
Selling Options: Determine if your strike price is likely to be hit before expiration
Buying Options: Estimate probability of reaching profit targets within your time window
Time Decay Management: Compare expected time-to-target vs theta decay
Example: You're considering selling a 30-day call option 5% out of the money. The indicator shows there's a 72% chance price hits +5% within 12 days. This tells you the trade has high assignment risk.
2. Swing Trading
Entry Timing: Wait for higher probability setups when directional bias is strong
Target Setting: Use median time-to-target to set realistic profit expectations
Stop Loss Placement: Understand probability of hitting your stop before target
Example: The indicator shows 85% upside probability with median time of 3.2 days. You can confidently enter long positions with appropriate position sizing.
3. Risk Management
Position Sizing: Larger positions when probability heavily favors one direction
Portfolio Allocation: Reduce exposure when probabilities are near 50/50 (high uncertainty)
Hedge Timing: Know when to add protective positions based on downside probability
Example: Indicator shows 55% upside vs 45% downside—nearly neutral. This signals high uncertainty, suggesting reduced position size or wait for better setup.
4. Market Regime Detection
Trending Markets: High directional bias (70%+ one direction)
Range-bound Markets: Balanced probabilities (45-55% both directions)
Volatility Regimes: Compare actual vs theoretical minimum time
Example: Consistent 90%+ bullish bias across multiple timeframes confirms strong uptrend—stay long and avoid counter-trend trades.
First Hit Rate (Most Important!)
Shows which threshold is likely to be hit FIRST:
Upside %: Probability of hitting upside target before downside
Downside %: Probability of hitting downside target before upside
These always sum to 100%
⚠️ Warning: If you see "Low Hit Rate" warning, increase this parameter!
Advanced Parameters
Drift Mode
Allows you to explore different scenarios:
Historical: Uses actual recent trend (default—most realistic)
Zero (Neutral): Assumes no trend, only volatility (symmetric probabilities)
50% Reduced: Dampens trend effect (conservative scenario)
Use Case: Switch to "Zero (Neutral)" to see what happens in a pure volatility environment, useful for range-bound markets.
Distribution Type
Percentile: Shows 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 90% levels (recommended for most users)
Sigma: Shows standard deviation levels (1σ, 2σ)—useful for statistical analysis
⚠️ Important Limitations & Best Practices
Limitations
Assumes GBM: Real markets have fat tails, jumps, and regime changes not captured by GBM
Historical Parameters: Uses recent volatility/drift—may not predict regime shifts
No Fundamental Events: Cannot predict earnings, news, or macro shocks
Computational: Runs only on last bar—doesn't give historical signals
Remember: Probabilities are not certainties. Use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading plan with proper risk management.

Williams Alligator Spread Oscillator (WASO)Short description (About box)
Williams Alligator Spread Oscillator (WASO) converts Bill Williams’ Alligator into a 0–100 oscillator that measures the average distance between Lips/Teeth/Jaw relative to ATR. High = expansion/trend (default), low = compression/range — making sideways markets easier to spot. Includes adaptive normalization, configurable thresholds, background shading, and alerts.
Full description (Description field)
What it does
The Williams Alligator Spread Oscillator (WASO) transforms Bill Williams’ Alligator into a single, adaptive 0–100 scale. It computes the average pairwise distance among the Alligator lines (Lips/Teeth/Jaw), normalizes it by ATR and a rolling min–max window, and smooths the result. This makes the signal robust across symbols and timeframes and explicitly improves detection of sideways (ranging) conditions by highlighting compression regimes.
Why it helps
Sideways detection made easier: Low WASO marks compressed regimes that commonly align with consolidation/range phases, helping you identify chop and plan breakout strategies.
Trend/expansion clarity: High WASO indicates the Alligator lines are widening relative to volatility, pointing to trending or expanding conditions.
You can flip the direction if you prefer “High = Range.”
How it is calculated (plain English)
Smooth price with RMA (SMMA-like) to get Jaw, Teeth, Lips.
Compute the average pairwise distance between these three lines.
Divide by ATR to remove price-scale effects.
Normalize with a rolling min–max window to map values to 0–100.
Optionally apply EMA smoothing to the oscillator.
Key settings
Jaw/Teeth/Lips Lengths: Alligator periods (SMMA-like via ta.rma).
ATR Length: Volatility benchmark for scaling.
Normalization Lookback: Longer = steadier; shorter = more responsive.
Smoothing (EMA): Evens out noise.
High Value = Large Spread (Trend): Toggle to invert semantics.
Upper/Lower Thresholds: 70/30 are practical starting points.
Signals / interpretation
Sideways / Compression (easier to spot):
Default direction: WASO below Lower Threshold (e.g., <30).
With inverted direction OFF: WASO above Upper Threshold (e.g., >70).
Trend / Expansion:
Default direction: WASO above Upper Threshold (e.g., >70).
With inverted direction OFF: WASO below Lower Threshold (e.g., <30).
Midline (50): Neutral zone; flips around 50 can hint at regime shifts.
Alerts included
Range Start (sideways/compression)
Trend Start (expansion/trend)
Notes & limitations
This implementation omits the classic forward shift of Alligator lines to keep signals usable on live bars.
If market behavior shifts (very quiet or very volatile), tune Lookback and ATR Length.
Combine WASO with breakout levels or momentum filters for entries/exits.

FirstStrike Long 200 - Daily Trend Rider [KedArc Quant]Strategy Description
FirstStrike Long 200 is a disciplined, long-only momentum strategy designed for daily "strike-first" entries in trending markets. It scans for RSI momentum above a customizable trigger (default 50), confirmed by EMA trend filters, and limits you to *exactly one trade per day* to avoid overtrading. It uses ATR for dynamic risk management (1.5x stop, 2:1 RR target) and optional trailing stops to ride winners. Backtested with realistic commissions and sizing, it prioritizes low drawdowns (<1% max in tests) over aggressive gains—ideal for swing traders seeking quality setups in bull runs.
Why It's Different from Other Strategies
Unlike generic RSI crossover bots or EMA ribbon mashups that spam signals and bleed in chop, FirstStrike enforces a "one-and-done" daily gate, blending precision momentum (RSI modes with grace/sustain) with robust filters (volume, sessions, rearm dips).
How It Helps Traders
- Reduces Emotional Trading: One entry/day forces discipline—miss a setup? Wait for tomorrow. Perfect for busy pros avoiding screen fatigue.
- Adapts to Regimes: Switch modes for trends ("Cross+Grace") vs. ranges ("Any bar")—boosts win rates 5-10% in backtests on high-beta names like .
- Risk-First Design: ATR scales stops to vol capping DD at 0.2% while targeting 2R winners. Trailing option locks +3-5% runs without early exits.
- Quick Insights: Labels/alerts flag entries with RSI values; bgcolor highlights signals for visual scanning. Helps spot "first-strike" edges in uptrends, filtering ~60% noise.
Why This Is Not a Mashup
This isn't a Frankenstein of off-the-shelf indicators—while it uses standard RSI/EMA/ATR (core Pine primitives), the innovation lies in:
- Custom Trigger Engine: Switchable modes (e.g., "Cross+Grace+Sustain" requires post-cross hold) prevent perpetual signals, unlike basic `ta.crossover()`.
- Daily Rearm Gate: Resets eligibility only after a dip (if enabled), tying momentum to mean-reversion—original logic not found in common scripts.
- Per-Day Isolation: `var` vars + `ta.change(time("D"))` ensure zero pyramiding/overlaps, beyond simple session filters.
All formulae are derived in-house for "first-strike" (early RSI pops in trends), not copied from public repos.
Input Configurations
Let's break down every input in the FirstStrike Long 200 strategy. These settings let you tweak the strategy like a dashboard—start with defaults for quick testing,
then adjust based on your asset or timeframe (5m for intraday). They're grouped logically to keep things organized, and most have tooltips in the script for quick reminders.
RSI / Trigger Group: The Heart of Momentum Detection
This is where the magic starts—the strategy hunts for "upward energy" using RSI (Relative Strength Index), a tool that measures if a stock is overbought (too hot) or oversold (too cold) on a 0-100 scale.
- RSI Length: How many bars (candles) back to calculate RSI. Default is 14, like a 14-day window for daily charts. Shorter (e.g., 9) makes it snappier for fast markets; longer (21) smooths out noise but misses quick turns.
- Trigger Level (RSI >= this): The key RSI value where the strategy says, "Go time!" Default 50 means enter when RSI crosses or holds above the neutral midline. Why is this trigger required? It acts as your "green light" filter—without it, you'd enter on every tiny price wiggle, leading to endless losers. RSI above this shows building buyer power, avoiding weak or sideways moves. It's essential for quality over quantity, especially in one-trade-per-day setups.
- Trigger Mode: Picks how strict the RSI signal must be. Options: "Cross only" (exact RSI crossover above trigger—super precise, fewer trades); "Cross+Grace" (crossover or within a grace window after—gives a second chance); "Cross+Grace+Sustain" (crossover/grace plus RSI holding steady for bars—best for steady climbs); "Any bar >= trigger" (looser, any bar above—more opportunities but riskier in chop). Start with "Any bar" for trends, switch to "Cross only" for caution.
- Grace Window (bars after cross): If mode allows, how many bars post-RSI-cross you can still enter if RSI dips but recovers. Default 30 (about 2.5 hours on 5m). Zero means no wiggle room—pure precision.
- Sustain Bars (RSI >= trigger): In sustain mode, how many straight bars RSI must stay above trigger. Default 3 ensures it's not a fluke spike.
- Require RSI Dip Below Rearm Before Any Entry?: A yes/no toggle. If on, the strategy "rearms" only after RSI dips below a low level (like a breather), preventing back-to-back signals in overextended rallies.
- Rearm Level (if requireDip=true): The dip threshold for rearming. Default 45—RSI must go below this to reset eligibility. Lower (30) for deeper pullbacks in volatile stocks.
For the trigger level itself, presets matter a lot—default 50 is neutral and versatile for broad trends. Bump to 55-60 for "strong momentum only" (fewer but higher-win trades, great in bull runs like tech surges); drop to 40-45 for "early bird" catches in recoveries (more signals but watch for fakes in ranges). The optimize hint (40-60) lets you test these in TradingView to match your risk—higher presets cut noise by 20-30% in backtests.
Trend / Filters Group: Keeping You on the Right Side of the Market
These EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages) act like guardrails, ensuring you only long in uptrends.
- EMA (Fast) Confirmation: Short-term EMA for price action. Default 20 periods—price must be above this for "recent strength." Shorter (10) reacts faster to intraday pops.
- EMA (Trend Filter): Long-term EMA for big-picture trend. Default 200 (classic "above the 200-day" rule)—price above it confirms bull market. Minimum 50 to avoid over-smoothing.
Optional Hour Window Group: Timing Your Strikes
Avoid bad hours like lunch lulls or after-hours tricks.
- Restrict by Session?: Yes/no for using exact market hours. Default off.
- Session (e.g., 0930-1600 for NYSE): Time string like "0930-1600" for open to close. Auto-skips pre/post-market noise.
- Restrict by Hour Range?: Fallback yes/no for simple hours. Default off.
- Start Hour / End Hour: Clock times (0-23). Defaults 9-15 ET—focus on peak volume.
Volume Filter Group: No Volume, No Party
Confirms conviction—big moves need big participation.
- Require Volume > SMA?: Yes/no toggle. Default off—only fires on above-average volume.
- Volume SMA Length: Periods for the average. Default 20—compares current bar to recent norm.
Risk / Exits Group: Protecting and Profiting Smartly
Dynamic stops based on volatility (ATR = Average True Range) keep things realistic.
- ATR Length: Bars for ATR calc. Default 14—measures recent "wiggle room" in price.
- ATR Stop Multiplier: How far below entry for stop-loss. Default 1.5x ATR—gives breathing space without huge risk
- Take-Profit R Multiple: Reward target as multiple of risk. Default 2.0 (2:1 ratio)—aims for twice your stop distance.
- Use Trailing Stop?: Yes/no for profit-locking trail. Default off—activates after entry.
- Trailing ATR Multiplier: Trail distance. Default 2.0x ATR—looser than initial stop to let winners run.
These inputs make the strategy plug-and-play: Defaults work out-of-box for trending stocks, but tweak RSI trigger/modes first for your style.
Always backtest changes—small shifts can flip a 40% win rate to 50%+!
Outputs (Visuals & Alerts):
- Plots: Blue EMA200 (trend line), Orange EMA20 (price filter), Green dashed entry price.
- Labels: Green "LONG" arrow with RSI value on entries.
- Background: Light green highlight on signal bars.
- Alerts: "FirstStrike Long Entry" fires on conditions (integrates with TradingView notifications).
Entry-Exit Logic
Entry (Long Only, One Per Day):
1. Daily Reset: New day clears trade gate and (if required) rearm status.
2. Filters Pass: Time/session OK + Close > EMA200 (trend) + Close > EMA20 (price) + Volume > SMA (if enabled) + Rearmed (dip below rearm if toggled).
3. Trigger Fires: RSI >= trigger via selected mode (e.g., crossover + grace window).
4. Execute: Enter long at close; set daily flag to block repeats.
Exit:
- Stop-Loss: Entry - (ATR * 1.5) – dynamic, vol-scaled.
- Take-Profit: Entry + (Risk * 2.0) – fixed RR.
- Trailing (Optional): Activates post-entry; trails at Close - (ATR * 2.0), updating on each bar for trend extension.
No shorts or hedging—pure long bias.
Formulae Used
- RSI: `ta.rsi(close, rsiLen)` – Standard 14-period momentum oscillator (0-100).
- EMAs: `ta.ema(close, len)` – Exponential moving averages for trend/price filters.
- ATR: `ta.atr(atrLen)` – True range average for stop sizing: Stop = Entry - (ATR * mult).
- Volume SMA: `ta.sma(volume, volLen)` – Simple average for relative strength filter.
- Grace Window: `bar_index - lastCrossBarIndex <= graceBars` – Counts bars since RSI crossover.
- Sustain: `ta.barssince(rsi < trigger) >= sustainBars` – Consecutive bars above threshold.
- Session Check: `time(timeframe.period, sessionStr) != 0` – TradingView's built-in session validator.
- Risk Distance: `riskPS = entry - stop; TP = entry + (riskPS * RR)` – Asymmetric reward calc.
FAQ
Q: Why only one trade/day?
A: Prevents revenge trading in volatile sessions . Backtests show it cuts losers by 20-30% vs. multi-entry bots.
Q: Does it work on all assets/timeframes?
A: Best for trending stocks/indices on 5m-1H. Test on crypto/forex with wider ATR mult (2.0+).
Q: How to optimize?
A: Use TradingView's optimizer on RSI trigger (40-60) and EMA fast (10-30). Aim for PF >1.0 over 1Y data.
Q: Alerts don't fire—why?
A: Ensure `alertcondition` is enabled in script settings. Test with "Any alert() function calls only."
Q: Trailing stop too loose?
A: Tune `trailMult` to 1.5 for tighter; it activates alongside fixed TP/SL for hybrid protection.
Glossary
- Grace Window: Post-RSI-cross period (bars) where entry still allowed if RSI holds trigger.
- Rearm Dip: Optional pullback below a low RSI level (e.g., 45) to "reset" eligibility after signals.
- Profit Factor (PF): Gross profit / gross loss—>1.0 means winners outweigh losers.
- R Multiple: Risk units (e.g., 2R = 2x stop distance as target).
- Sustain Bars: Consecutive bars RSI stays >= trigger for mode confirmation.
Recommendations
- Backtest First: Run on your symbols (/) over 6-12M; tweak RSI to 55 for +5% win rate.
- Live Use: Start paper trading with `useSession=true` and `useVol=true` to filter noise.
- Pairs Well With: Higher TF (daily) for bias; add ADX (>25) filter for strong trends (code snippet in prior chats).
- Risk Note: 10% sizing suits $100k+ accounts; scale down for smaller. Not financial advice—past performance ≠ future.
- Publish Tip: Add tags like "momentum," "RSI," "long-only" on TradingView for visibility.

Quant Trend + Donchian (Educational, Public-Safe)What this does
Educational, public-safe visualization of a quant regime model:
• Trend : EMA(64) vs EMA(256) (EWMAC proxy)
• Breakout : Donchian channel (200)
• Volatility-awareness : internal z-scores (not plotted) for concept clarity
Why it’s useful
• Shows when trend & breakout align (clean regimes) vs conflict (chop)
• Helps explain why volatility-aware systems size up in smooth trends and scale down in noise
How to read it
• EMA64 above EMA256 with price near/above Donchian high → trend-following alignment
• EMA64 below EMA256 with price near/below Donchian low → bearish alignment
• Inside channel with EMAs tangled → range/chop risk
Notes
• Indicator is educational only (no orders).
• Built entirely with TradingView built-ins.
• For consistent visuals: enable “Indicator values on price scale” and disable “Scale price chart only” in Settings → Scales .
MACD-V+ (ATR Normalized MACD)MACD-V+ is an ATR-normalized MACD tool that focuses on true turning points inside Overbought/Oversold zones. It marks a signal only when the MACD’s slope changes direction and shows real progress back toward the zero line, with an optional dwell (depth & time) filter so you don’t get faked out by shallow pokes into a zone. Clean visuals, “first-in-zone” gating, and configurable labeling make it practical for discretionary and systematic traders alike.
For best results, adjust Overbought and Oversold levels based on stock volatility. The default settings of 150 and -150 are for highly volatile tickers. Reduce for less volatile tickers.
Please help me improve the code for everyone.
Vol-Pace Projected-ATR-ADX-Alert-MAThe VolSC indicator analyzes stock volume trends with a focus on the Pace metric, which projects today's volume as a percentage of the 30-day average, highlighting unusual activity (e.g., over 200% turns bright green with alerts). The phantom projection bar, a wide green histogram to the right of the last bar, visually represents this projected volume on daily charts only, aiding quick identification of potential volume surges without cluttering intraday or weekly views. Additional features include ADX strength, ATR averages, and customizable table display for comprehensive insights.
Key Features:
* Primary Indicator: Volume with ADX (Average Directional Index) text.
* Pacing and Alerts: Calculates the volume pace for the day. Features an unusual volume alert with an adjustable threshold (e.g., 200%).
* Volume Projection: Projects a visual "Phantom Volume" for the day, offset to the right of the actual volume bar.
* ATR Indicator: Displays the 2x ATR (Average True Range) value as text.
* Volume Average: Displays the ADV (Average Daily Volume) Moving Average as text.
* Customization: Most settings are adjustable.
TTM Squeeze Range Lines (with Forward Extension) By Gautam KumarThis TTM Squeeze Range Lines script helps visualize breakout levels by marking the recent squeeze’s high and low, making it easier to identify potential trade setups. Each signal line is extended for visibility, showing possible entry levels after a squeeze.
Interpreting the LinesLight blue background marks periods when the TTM squeeze is active (tight volatility).
Green line is drawn at the highest price during the squeeze, extended forward—this is commonly used as the breakout level for long entries.
Red line shows the lowest price during the squeeze, indicating the bottom of the range—potential stop loss positioning or an invalidation level.
When the squeeze background disappears, the horizontal lines will have just appeared and extended forward for several bars after the squeeze ends.
If the price breaks above the green line (the squeeze high), it signals a possible momentum breakout, which traders often use as a long entry.
The red line can be used for placing stop losses or monitoring failed breakouts if price falls below this level.
Best Practices
Combine these levels with volume and momentum confirmation for strong entries.
Adjust the extension length (number of bars forward) from the settings menu to fit your preference.
For systematic trading, use these breakout signals alongside chart pattern or histogram confirmation.
This makes it easy to visualize strong entry zones based on the end of squeeze compression, supporting both discretionary and automated swing trading approaches

Round Number Analyzer v3Round Number Analyzer v3 is an indicator designed to analyze how price interacts with round number levels (levels spaced at fixed intervals in points or pips).
The indicator does not generate entry/exit signals, but provides detailed statistics to better understand market dynamics around these key levels.
✨ Key Features
Cross Counting: detects every time the price crosses a round number level (up = Long, down = Short).
Continuations & Reversals: classifies each cross as:
Continuation: the move continues in the same direction as the previous sequence.
Reversal: the move changes direction compared to the previous sequence.
Sequence Classification (L1…L5+): each level is labelled based on its position within the consecutive cross sequence:
L1 = first level of the sequence,
L2 = second consecutive,
…
L5+ = fifth or higher.
Comprehensive Stats Table (top right corner):
Total crosses (Long, Short, Totals).
Total continuations + breakdown by L1…L5+.
Total reversals + breakdown by L1…L5+.
Percentages calculated against the proper denominator, displayed directly inside the cells next to the absolute values.
Date range of analysis (user-defined).
Customizable Step: Works in both points and pips, making the indicator suitable for indices and forex.
⚙️ Main Inputs
Start date / End date → sets the analysis period.
Step mode → Points or Pips.
Step value → distance between round levels.
Pip size → pip size (default = 0.0001, typical for forex).
📈 How to Interpret
A high continuation percentage after L1–L2 suggests the market tends to extend multiple times beyond the first breakout levels.
Higher reversal percentages at advanced levels (L4–L5+) may signal trend exhaustion.
The analysis helps estimate the probability of continuation or reversal depending on how many consecutive levels have already been crossed.
🔎 Practical Applications
Support for breakout or mean-reversion strategies.
Comparative analysis across different markets (e.g. indices vs forex) or different time periods.
📝 Notes
The indicator is timeframe-robust, as it accounts for multiple steps within the same candle, ensuring results do not depend on the selected timeframe (except for TradingView’s historical data limits).
It does not provide automatic trading signals, but serves as a quantitative analysis tool to refine your strategies.

Round Number Analyzer v3 è un indicatore pensato per analizzare come il prezzo interagisce con i livelli di round number (livelli a distanza fissa in punti o pips).
L’indicatore non genera segnali di ingresso/uscita, ma fornisce statistiche dettagliate utili per comprendere la dinamica del mercato attorno a questi livelli.
✨ Funzionalità principali
Conteggio dei Cross: rileva ogni volta che il prezzo attraversa un livello round (verso l’alto = Long, verso il basso = Short).
Continuations & Reversals: classifica ogni attraversamento come:
Continuation: il movimento prosegue nella stessa direzione della sequenza precedente.
Reversal: il movimento inverte la direzione rispetto alla sequenza precedente.
Classificazione per sequenza (L1…L5+): ogni livello è etichettato in base alla sua posizione nella sequenza di cross consecutivi:
L1 = primo livello della sequenza,
L2 = secondo consecutivo,
…
L5+ = quinto o superiore.
Statistiche complete in tabella (in alto a destra):
Cross totali (Long, Short, Totals).
Continuations totali + breakdown per L1…L5+.
Reversals totali + breakdown per L1…L5+.
Percentuali calcolate sul denominatore corretto, mostrate direttamente dentro le celle accanto ai valori assoluti.
Date range di analisi (impostabile dall’utente).
Step personalizzabile: puoi lavorare sia in punti che in pips, così l’indicatore è adatto sia per indici che per forex.
⚙️ Input principali
Start date / End date → imposta l’intervallo temporale di analisi.
Step mode → punti o pips.
Step value → ampiezza tra i livelli round.
Pip size → dimensione del pip (default = 0.0001, tipico per il forex).
📈 Come interpretarlo
Una percentuale di continuation molto alta dopo L1–L2 indica che il mercato tende a proseguire più volte oltre i primi livelli di breakout.
Percentuali di reversal più elevate nei livelli avanzati (L4–L5+) possono suggerire esaurimento della spinta.
L’analisi permette di stimare la probabilità che un movimento in corso continui o si inverta in base a quanti livelli sono già stati attraversati consecutivamente.
🔎 Applicazioni pratiche
Supporto per strategie di breakout o mean reversion.
Analisi comparativa tra mercati (es. indici vs forex) o tra periodi temporali diversi.
📝 Note
L’indicatore è timeframe-robust: il conteggio tiene conto di multipli step dentro la stessa candela, così i risultati non dipendono dal timeframe scelto (salvo i limiti di caricamento storico di TradingView).
Non fornisce segnali operativi automatici, ma è un tool di analisi quantitativa per affinare le proprie strategie.

Utilizing advanced statistical band calculations with expanding and rolling window analysis, this indicator delivers institutional-grade overbought/oversold detection based on risk-adjusted returns rather than traditional price movements. The system's dual-ratio aggregation approach provides superior signal accuracy by incorporating both upside potential and downside risk metrics with dynamic threshold adaptation for varying market conditions.
🔶 Advanced Statistical Framework
Implements dual statistical methodologies using expanding and rolling window calculations to create adaptive threshold bands that evolve with market conditions. The system calculates cumulative statistics alongside rolling averages to provide both historical context and current market regime sensitivity with configurable window parameters for optimal performance across timeframes.
🔶 Dual Ratio Integration System
Combines Omega Ratio analysis measuring excess returns versus deficit returns with Sortino Ratio calculations focusing on downside deviation for comprehensive risk-adjusted performance assessment. The system applies configurable smoothing to both ratios before aggregation, ensuring stable signal generation while maintaining sensitivity to regime changes.
// Omega Ratio Calculation
Excess_Return = sum((Daily_Return > Target_Return ? Daily_Return - Target_Return : 0), Period)
Deficit_Return = sum((Daily_Return < Target_Return ? Target_Return - Daily_Return : 0), Period)
Omega_Ratio = Deficit_Return ≠ 0 ? (Excess_Return / Deficit_Return) : na
// Sortino Ratio Framework
Downside_Deviation = sqrt(sum((Daily_Return < Target_Return ? (Daily_Return - Target_Return)² : 0), Period) / Period)
Sortino_Ratio = (Mean_Return / Downside_Deviation) * sqrt(Annualization_Factor)
// Aggregated Score
Aggregated_Score = SMA(Omega_Ratio, Omega_SMA) + SMA(Sortino_Ratio, Sortino_SMA)

John Bollinger's Bollinger BandsJapanese below / 日本語説明は下記
This indicator replicates how John Bollinger, the inventor of Bollinger Bands, uses Bollinger Bands, displaying Bollinger Bands, %B and Bandwidth in one indicator with alerts and signals.
Bollinger Bands is created by John Bollinger in 1980s who is an American financial trader and analyst. He introduced %B and Bandwidth 30 years later.
🟦 What's different from other Bollinger Bands indicator?
Unlike the default Bollinger Bands or other custom Bollinger Bands indicators on TradingView, this indicator enables to display three Bollinger Bands tools into a single indicator with signals and alerts capability.
You can plot the classic Bollinger Bands together with either %B or Bandwidth or three tools altogether which requires the specific setting(see below settings).
This makes it easy to quantitatively monitor volatility changes and price position in relation to Bollinger Bands in one place.
🟦 Features:
Plots Bollinger Bands (Upper, Basis, Lower) with fill between bands.
Option to display %B or Bandwidth with Bollinger Bands.
Plots highest and lowest Bandwidth levels over a customizable lookback period.
Adds visual markers when Bandwidth reaches its highest (Bulge) or lowest (Squeeze) value.
Includes ready-to-use alert conditions for Bulge and Squeeze events.
📈Chart
Green triangles and red triangles in the bottom chart mark Bulges and Squeezes respectively.
🟦 Settings:
Length: Number of bars used for Bollinger Band middleline calculation.
Basis MA Type: Choose SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, or VWMA for the midline.
StdDev: Standard deviation multiplier (default = 2.0).
Option: Select "Bandwidth" or "%B" (add the indicator twice if you want to display both).
Period for Squeeze and Bulge: Lookback period for detecting the highest and lowest Bandwidth levels.(default = 125 as specified by John Bollinger )
Style Settings: Colors, line thickness, and transparency can be customized.
📈Chart
The chart below shows an example of three Bollinger Bands tools: Bollinger Band, %B and Bandwidth are in display.
To do this, you need to add this indicator TWICE where you select %B from Option in the first addition of this indicator and Bandwidth from Option in the second addition.
🟦 Usage:
🟠Monitor Volatility:
Watch Bandwidth values to spot volatility contractions (Squeeze) and expansions (Bulge) that often precede strong price moves.
John Bollinger defines Squeeze and Bulge as follows;
Squeeze:
The lowest bandwidth in the past 125 period, where trend is born.
Bulge:
The highest bandwidth in the past 125 period where trend is going to die.
According to John Bollinger, this 125 period can be used in any timeframe.
📈Chart1
Example of Squeeze
You can see uptrends start after squeeze(red triangles)
📈Chart2
Example of Bulge
You can see the trend reversal from downtrend to uptrends at the bulge(green triangles)
📈Chart3
Bulge DOES NOT NECESSARILY mean the beginning of a trend in opposite direction.
For example, you can see a bulge happening in the right side of the chart where green triangles are marked. Nevertheless, uptrend still continues after the bulge.
In this case, the bulge marks the beginning of a consolidation which lead to the continuation of the trend. It means that a phase of the trend highlighted in the light blue box came to an end.
Note: light blue box is not drawn by the indicator.
Like other technical analysis methods or tools, these setups do not guarantee birth of new trends and trend reversals. Traders should be carefully observing these setups along with other factors for making decisions.
🟠Track Price Position:
Use %B to see where price is located in relation to the Bollinger Bands.
If %B is close to 1, the price is near upper band while %B is close to 0, the price is near lower band.
🟠Set Alerts:
Receive alerts when Bandwidth hits highest and lowest values of bandwidth, helping you prepare for potential breakout, ending of trends and trend reversal opportunities.
🟠Combine with Other Tools:
This indicator would work best when combined with price action, trend analysis, or
market environmental analysis.

このインジケーターはボリンジャーバンドの考案者であるジョン・ボリンジャー氏が提唱するボリンジャーバンドの使い方を再現するために、ボリンジャーバンド、%B、バンドウィズ(Bandwidth) の3つを1つのインジケーターで表示可能にしたものです。シグナルやアラートにも対応しています。
ボリンジャーバンドは1980年代にアメリカ人トレーダー兼アナリストのジョン・ボリンジャー氏によって開発されました。彼はその30年後に%Bとバンドウィズを導入しました。
🟦 他のボリンジャーバンドとの違い
TradingView標準のボリンジャーバンドや他のボリンジャーバンドとは異なり、このインジケーターでは3つのボリンジャーバンドツールを1つのインジケーターで表示し、シグナルやアラート機能も利用できるようになっています。
一般的に知られている通常のボリンジャーバンドに加え、%Bやバンドウィズを組み合わせて表示でき、設定次第では3つすべてを同時にモニターすることも可能です。これにより、価格とボリンジャーバンドの位置関係とボラティリティ変化をひと目で、かつ定量的に把握することができます。
🟦 機能:
ボリンジャーバンド（アッパーバンド・基準線・ロワーバンド）を描画し、バンド間を塗りつぶし表示。
オプションで%Bまたはバンドウィズを追加表示可能。
バンドウィズの最高値・最安値を、任意の期間で検出して表示。
バンドウィズが指定期間の最高値（バルジ※）または最安値（スクイーズ）に達した際にシグナルを表示。
※バルジは一般的にボリンジャーバンドで用いられるエクスパンションとほぼ同じ意味ですが、定義が異なります。(下記参照)
バルジおよびスクイーズ発生時のアラート設定が可能。

Length: ボリンジャーバンドの基準線計算に使う期間。
Basis MA Type: SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, VWMAから選択可能。
StdDev: 標準偏差の乗数（デフォルト2.0）。
Option: 「Bandwidth」または「%B」を選択（両方表示するにはこのインジケーターを2回追加）。
Period for Squeeze and Bulge: Bandwidthの最高値・最安値を検出する期間（デフォルトはジョン・ボリンジャー氏が推奨する125）。
Style Settings: 色、線の太さ、透明度などをカスタマイズ可能。
📈 チャート例
下のチャートは「ボリンジャーバンド」「%B」「バンドウィズ」の3つを同時に表示した例です。
この場合、インジケーターを2回追加し、最初に追加した方ではOptionを「%B」に、次に追加した方では「Bandwidth」を選択します。
🟦 使い方:
🟠 ボラティリティを監視する:
バンドウィズの値を見ることで、価格変動の収縮（スクイーズ）や拡大（バルジ）を確認できます。
これらはしばしば強い値動きの前兆となります。
ジョン・ボリンジャー氏はスクイーズとバルジを次のように定義しています：
スクイーズ: 過去125期間の中で最も低いバンドウィズ→ 新しいトレンドが生まれる場所。
バルジ: 過去125期間の中で最も高いバンドウィズ → トレンドが終わりを迎える場所。
この「125期間」はどのタイムフレームでも利用可能とされています。
📈 チャート1
スクイーズの例
赤い三角のスクイーズの後に上昇トレンドが始まっているのが確認できます。
📈 チャート2
バルジの例
緑の三角のバルジの箇所で下降トレンドから上昇トレンドへの反転が見られます。
📈 チャート3
バルジが必ずしも反転を意味しない例
下記のチャート右側の緑の三角で示されたバルジの後も、上昇トレンドが継続しています。
この場合、バルジは反転ではなく「トレンド一時的な調整（レンジ入り）」を示しており、結果的に上昇トレンドが継続しています。
この場合、バルジは水色のボックスで示されたトレンドのフェーズの終わりを示しています。
※水色のボックスはインジケーターが描画したものではありません。
また、他のテクニカル分析と同様に、これらのセットアップは必ず新しいトレンドの発生やトレンド転換を保証するものではありません。トレーダーは他の要素も考慮し、慎重に意思決定する必要があります。
🟠 価格とボリンジャーバンドの位置関係を確認する:
%Bを利用すれば、価格がバンドのどこに位置しているかを簡単に把握できます。
%Bが1に近ければ価格はアッパーバンド付近、0に近ければロワーバンド付近にあります。
🟠 アラートを設定する:
バンドウィズが一定期間の最高値または最安値に到達した際にアラートを設定することで、ブレイクアウトやトレンド終了、反転の可能性に備えることができます。
🟠 他のツールと組み合わせる:
このインジケーターは、プライスアクション、トレンド分析、環境認識などと組み合わせて活用すると最も効果的です。
Fisher Transform Trend Navigator [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Fisher Transform Trend Navigator applies a logarithmic transformation to normalize price data into a Gaussian distribution, then combines this with volatility-adaptive thresholds to create a trend detection system. This mathematical approach helps traders identify high-probability trend changes and reversal points while filtering market noise in the ever-changing volatility conditions.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's foundation begins with price normalization, where recent price action is scaled to a bounded range between -1 and +1:
highestHigh = ta.highest(priceSource, fisherPeriod)
lowestLow = ta.lowest(priceSource, fisherPeriod)
value1 = highestHigh != lowestLow ? 2 * (priceSource - lowestLow) / (highestHigh - lowestLow) - 1 : 0
value1 := math.max(-0.999, math.min(0.999, value1))
This normalized value then passes through the Fisher Transform calculation, which applies a logarithmic function to convert the data into a Gaussian normal distribution that naturally amplifies price extremes and turning points:
fisherTransform = 0.5 * math.log((1 + value1) / (1 - value1))
smoothedFisher = ta.ema(fisherTransform, fisherSmoothing)
The smoothed Fisher signal is then integrated with an exponential moving average to create a hybrid trend line that balances statistical precision with price-following behavior:
baseTrend = ta.ema(close, basePeriod)
fisherAdjustment = smoothedFisher * fisherSensitivity * close
fisherTrend = baseTrend + fisherAdjustment
To filter out false signals and adapt to market conditions, the system calculates dynamic threshold bands using volatility measurements:
dynamicRange = ta.atr(volatilityPeriod)
threshold = dynamicRange * volatilityMultiplier
upperThreshold = fisherTrend + threshold
lowerThreshold = fisherTrend - threshold
When price momentum pushes through these thresholds, the trend line locks onto the new level and maintains direction until the opposite threshold is breached:
if upperThreshold < trendLine
trendLine := upperThreshold
if lowerThreshold > trendLine
trendLine := lowerThreshold
🟢 Signal Interpretation
Bullish Candles (Green): indicate normalized price distribution favoring bulls with sustained buying momentum = Long/Buy opportunities
Bearish Candles (Red): indicate normalized price distribution favoring bears with sustained selling pressure = Short/Sell opportunities
Upper Band Zone: Area above middle level indicating statistically elevated trend strength with potential overbought conditions approaching mean reversion zones
Lower Band Zone: Area below middle level indicating statistically depressed trend strength with potential oversold conditions approaching mean reversion zones
Built-in Alert System: Automated notifications trigger when bullish or bearish states change, allowing you to act on significant developments without constantly monitoring the charts
Candle Coloring: Optional feature applies trend colors to price bars for visual consistency and clarity
Configuration Presets: Three parameter sets available - Default (balanced settings), Scalping (faster response with higher sensitivity), and Swing Trading (slower response with enhanced smoothing)
Color Customization: Four color schemes including Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, and Custom options for personalized chart aesthetics

Fixed-Range Volume-Profile ZonesFixed Range Volume Profile Zones (with Dynamic Percentile Buffers)
This indicator calculates a fixed‑range volume profile over a user‑defined lookback period and identifies three key zones:
– VAL (Value Area Low)
– POC (Point of Control)
– VAH (Value Area High)
Volume is grouped into user‑selected price bins to create a profile of where the most trading activity occurred.
The script then splits the distribution into three zones and highlights the extremes (VAL/VAH) and the highest‑volume price (POC).
Dynamic Percentile Buffers
Instead of static offsets, this version computes the 10th and 90th percentile prices (user‑adjustable) of recent closes over the same lookback window.
These percentiles are used to create adaptive buffers above VAH and below VAL.
The buffers automatically expand or contract with market volatility and recent price distribution, filtering out weak or noisy touches.
Visual Elements:
– Green/orange/red horizontal lines = VAL / VAH / POC
– Green shading below VAL = buy zone
– Red shading above VAH = sell zone
– Down arrows above bars = closes above VAH + buffer
– Up arrows below bars = closes below VAL – buffer
Inputs:
– Lookback Days: number of bars used to build the profile
– Number of Bins: controls resolution of the volume profile
– VAH Percentile and VAL Percentile: choose which percentile levels to use for dynamic buffers
Use Cases:
– Quickly identify areas of high participation (POC) and potential support/resistance (VAL/VAH)
– Filter out weak breakouts using dynamic buffers
– Combine with other signals to improve entries/exits
