Bitcoin Margin Call Envelopes [saraphig & alexgrover]Bitcoin is the most well known digital currency, and allow two parties to make a transaction without the need of a central entity, this is why cryptocurrencies are said to be decentralized, there is no central unit in the transaction network, this can be achieved thanks to cryptography. Bitcoin is also the most traded cryptocurrency and has the largest market capitalization, this make it one of the most liquid cryptocurrency.
There has been tons of academic research studying the profitability of Bitcoin as well as its role as a safe heaven asset, with all giving mixed conclusions, some says that Bitcoin is to risky to be considered as an hedging instrument while others highlight similarities between Bitcoin and gold thus showing evidence on the usefulness of Bitcoin acting as an hedging instrument. Yet Bitcoin seems to attract more short term speculative investors rather than other ones that would use Bitcoin as an hedging instrument.
Once introduced, cryptocurrencies where of course heavily analyzed by technical analyst, and technical indicators where used by retail as well as institutional investors in order to forecast the future trends of bitcoin. I never really liked the idea of designing indicators that specifically worked for only one type of market and ever less on only one symbol. Yet the user @saraphig posted in Feb 20 an indicator called " Margin Call MovingAverage " who calculate liquidation price by using a volume weighted moving average. It took my attention and we decided to work together on a relatively more complete version that would include resistances levels.
I believe the proposed indicator might result useful to some users, the code also show a way to restrict the use of an indicator to only one symbol (line 9 to 16).
The Indicator
The indicator only work on BTCUSD, if you use another symbol you should see the following message:
The indicator plot 6 extremities, with 3 upper (resistance) extremities and 3 lower (support) extremities, each one based on the isolated margin mode liquidation price formula:
UPlp = MA/Leverage × (Leverage+1-(Leverage*0.005))
for upper extremities and:
DNlp = MA × Leverage/(Leverage+1-(Leverage*0.005))
for lower extremities.
Length control the period of the moving averages, with higher values of length increasing the probability of the price crossing an extremity. The Leverage's settings control how far away their associated extremities are from the price, with lower values of Leverage making the extremity farther away from the price, Leverage 3 control Up3 and Dn3, Leverage 2 control Up2 and Dn2, Leverage 1 control Up1 and Dn1, @saraphig recommend values for Leverage of either : 25, 20, 15, 10 ,5.
You can select 3 different types of moving average, the default moving average is the volume weighted moving average (VWMA), you can also choose a simple moving average (SMA) and the Kaufman adaptive moving average (KAMA).
Based on my understanding (which could be wrong) the original indicator aim to highlight points where margin calls might have occurred, hence the name of the indicator.
If you want a more "DSP" like description then i would say that each extremity represent a low-pass filter with a passband greater than 1 for upper extremities and lower than 1 for lower extremities, unlike bands indicators made by adding/subtracting a volatility indicator from another moving average this allow to conserve the original shape of the moving average, the downside of it being the inability to show properly on different scales.
here length = 200, on a 1h tf, each extremities are able to detect short-terms tops and bottoms. The extremity become wider when using lower time-frames.
You would then need to increase the Leverages settings, i recommend a time frame of 1h.
Conclusion
I'am not comfortable enough to make a conclusion, as i don't know the indicator that well, however i liked the original indicator posted by @saraphig and was curious about the idea behind it, studying the effect of margin calls on market liquidity as well as making indicators based on it might result a source of inspiration for other traders.
A big thanks to @saraphig who shared a lot of information about the original indicator and allowed me to post this one. I don't exclude working with him/her in the future, i invite you to follow him/her:

Thx for reading and have a nice weekend! :3
1-BTCUSD
RSI & StochasticA combination of RSI and Stochastic using default settings.
- RSI or Relative Strength Index is the white line.
- Stochastic %K is the aqua line
- Stochastic %D is the orange line
- The purple rectangle is the RSI range going from 30 (oversold) at the bottom to 70 (overbought)
- The top dotted line indicates the price being overbought on the stochastic
- The bottom dotted line indicates the price oversold on the stochastic
I mainly use both indicators to spot divergence/ potential upcoming turning points (tops or bottoms).
For example on the chart the white line shows the price of Bitcoin Rising
While the yellow line shows the stochastic declining and the red RSI stayed more or less at the same level.
Another way to use this indicator is to use the aqua line crossing above the orange line as an entry for a long trade this strategy is most useful when both are near the bottom of the range. The opposite is true for short trades but
both should be combined with other indicators such as moving averages support levels or volume for best results.
Generally RSI is more useful in trending markets & the stochastic is more useful in sideways or choppy markets.
Bitcoin Cycle Top IndicatorBitcoin Cycle Top Indicator on the 1W Bitcoin Logarithmic chart.
Called all 3 tops so far to a T, this indicator will be great use for the next upcoming cycle.
I kept it sweet and simple, no need to overcomplicate. That's all this indicator does.

BTC Bullish or Bearish (Joy)Quite often we are faced with the question of whether Bitcoin is macro bullish or bearish.
I tried to take a punch at this.
There many ways to find that answer.
This is one crude way.
Whenever the background colour is light lime, it means it thinks the Bitcoin is macro bullish
Whenever the background colour is red lime, it means it thinks the Bitcoin is macro bearish
How would I use this information?
I can possibly use it in position sizing and hedging. If I see a sell in a lime background, I can potentially just hedge & vice versa.
Do note that it works best in the higher timeframes.
Do note that it is not supposed to be used to open any new trade or to close any trade.
I use it alongside other indicators for confirmation bias.
This can possibly be used for other instruments. As I only use it for trading BTCUSD, I have crudely tested for BTCUSD

Market EKGShort Summary
This indicator takes the differences in the previous 4 period OHLC inputs, and compares them to the previously closed candle input. The difference is then placed into an oscillator that when all four inputs are scrolled back on, shows an EKG appearing oscillator / volatility measure for traders to use on indexes, tickers and markets that do not allow typical volume based indicators.
Full Summary
Named for its similar appearance to an EKG medical chart, this script takes the difference in relative averages of previous periods in a trend , and compares it to the most recent period input. This can be used as a price based volatility measure, useful in markets that may be limited by no valume measures or other indexes where volatility is useful to meeasure but will not allow volume initializations.

Bitcoin Difficulty Ribbon - Best IndicatorHello everyone,
Today I programed the Bitcoin Difficulty Ribbon Indicator.
First of all, special thanks to:
Vinny Lingham
Willy woo
I just added a green background to clarify the buy signal.
Introducing the Difficulty Ribbon, signaling the best times to buy Bitcoin
Introducing the Bitcoin Difficulty Ribbon.
When the ribbon compresses, or flips negative, these are the best times to buy Bitcoin .
The ribbon consists of simple moving averages on mining difficulty so we can easily see the rate of change in difficulty.
How it the Difficulty Ribbon works
This visualisation of network mining difficulty speaks to the impact of mining on Bitcoin's price. As new coins are mined into existence, miners sell some of their mined coins to pay for production costs. This produces bearish price pressure.
The weakest miners sell more of their coins to remain operational. When it becomes unsustainable, they capitulate, hashing power and network difficulty reduces (ribbon compression), leaving only the strong, who sell less leaving more room for more bullish price action.
Typically we see this at the end of bear cycles, after miners capitulate, the lack of miner selling pressure allows the price to stabilise and then climb; the classic accumulation bottom.
Deadband cross detection for BTC (XBT)Description: meant to be used with BTCUSD (or XBTUSD ) on 3 mins to 1h candles charts.
Idea is to provide a tool to detect break-out's from a dead band around an EMA, and to detect back-in's to the dead band.
Detection is fundamentally based on how much %, at least, a certain candle body has ruptured the dead band (adjustable).
Long and short flags are placed on the chart, as well as the deadband. Can be used to generate alers.
With minimal modifications, can be convert to a Strategy script.
Following are ideas to play around if you want. Room for improvements:
- convert constants into inputs, and diversify thresholds assimetrically
- play around with wether or not using pyramiding (here pyramiding is blocked)
- look at several bars in a sequence, not only current
BTC BUY/SELL INDICATORThis script combines my personal MACD+RSI strategy which I've been using for years, into a simpler indicator so if both meet the right conditions It'll give a buy or sell signal depending on the circumstances this script is intended to be used along your set of other scripts as a confirmation of your bias for any particular trade, not to be use alone by itself, I recommend using it on high time frames.
Bitcoin Halving CountdownHello traders,

(
The countdown date is coming from that source www.bitcoinblockhalf.com.
The halving date is estimated to be around May 13th, 2020 .
That date is hardcoded in the script and is used for the countdown calculation.
The Bitcoin block mining reward halves every 210,000 blocks, the coin reward will decrease from 12.5 to 6.25 coins.

Bitcoin DifficultyHello everyone,
An other indicator for bitcoin : the difficulty
What is difficulty?
Difficulty is a measure of how difficult it is to find a hash below a given target.
The Bitcoin network has a global block difficulty. Valid blocks must have a hash below this target.
Mining pools also have a pool-specific share difficulty setting a lower limit for shares.
