adjust_colour(rgb, desaturation_amount, transparency_amount)
to reduce saturation or increase transparency of an RGB colour
Parameters:
rgb (color)
desaturation_amount (float) : 0 means no desaturation (colours remains as-is), and 1 means full desaturation (colour turns grey). Can also be used inversely with negative numbers
transparency_amount (float) : How much more transparent the default transparency should become. E.g. with a value of 0.5, a transparency of 0 becomes 50 and 40 becomes 70. A value of 1 makes it fully transparent, en -1 fully opaque.
Returns: color with adjusted saturation and transparency
method apply_default_palette(self, palette_name)

Triple EMA Distance IndicatorTriple EMA Distance Indicator
The Triple EMA Distance indicator comprises two sets of triple exponential moving averages (EMAs). One set uses the same smoothing length for all EMAs, while the other set doubles the length for the last EMA. This indicator provides visual cues based on the relationship between these EMAs and candlestick patterns.
Blue Condition:
Indicates when the fast EMA is above the slow EMA.
The distance between the two EMAs is increasing.
Candlesticks and EMAs are colored light blue.
Orange Condition:
Activates when the fast EMA is below the slow EMA.
The distance between the two EMAs is increasing.
Candlesticks and EMAs are colored orange.
Beige Condition:
Occurs when the fast EMA is below the slow EMA.
The distance between the two EMAs is decreasing.
Candlesticks and EMAs are colored beige.
Light Blue Condition:
Represents when the fast EMA is above the slow EMA.
The distance between the two EMAs is decreasing.
Candlesticks and EMAs are colored light blue.
Material Design ColorsThis library provides a standard set of colors defined in Material Design 2.0.
🔵 API
Step 1: Import this library.
import algotraderdev/material/1
// remember to check the latest version of this library and replace the 1 above.
Step 2: Get the color you like. Check the source code or the screenshot above to see all the supported colors.
material.red()
Each color function (except for `black()` and `white()`) accepts an optional `variant` parameter. You can choose any of 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, and 900. By default, 500 is chosen if this parameter is not provided.
Gradient Value Overlay
This script helps with identifying certain conditions without cluttering too much of the candles.
Some use cases:
It helps identify rsi low and high values.
Directional price movement becoming difficult.
low and high volume.
it uses a percent rank to distinguish low and high values.
It then uses a gradient to match the percentile rank to heatmap type colors.
i.e. dark blue for lowest volume, white for highest volume.
Current options are:
max bars to use.
approximate color - This value will attempt to give an approximation of what the color might be for the candle close.
e.g. If you're on the 1-hour chart, and only 30 minutes have past, it will multiple the current volume by 1.5. As time passes, if no volume comes in eventually, it will multiply current volume by 1.
This approximate value is only set to work with volume-based options.
option - select the type of value you'd like to see the gradient for.
timeframe - get values from a different chart timeframe.
on/off - turns the gradient on or off.
Gradient type - color wheel or heatmap. Currently these are the only two gardient options.
color wheel's colors for low to high values:
color wheel's current colors:
dark blue
purple
pink
red
orange
yellow
green
teal
white
heatmap's current colors from low values to high values:
dark blue
purple
pink
red
orange
yellow
white
reverse gradient - will reverse the colors so dark blue will be the high value and white will be the low value. Some charts based on previous data; you might need to switch the gradient colors.
moving average length while inside timeframe - an exponential moving average is applied to the values. At 1, there is no moving average applied.
Use case for this is to smooth out the gradient.
An example use case - if your currently on the 1-hour chart, you can set the timeframe to 1 minute and then the moving average length inside timeframe to 60. You will then be seeing the color sixty 1-minute bars.
current timeframe moving average length - an exponential moving average applied to current gradient (helps with smoothing gradient).
Smooth, further smooths values.
There is no set rule for what moving average lengths to use. Adjust timeframe, and moving average lengths to get an insight.
TL Three-Color CandleA traditional candle only has two colors, either green or red. A TL candle goes one step further, it has three colors: green for bullish (perfectly bullish), red for bearish (perfectly bearish), and yellow for ranging (wake-up, sleeping). A green TL candle means that its close is not only higher than its open but also higher than previous close, previous open and especially previous high, among other conditions. In the other extreme, a red TL candle indicates that its close is not only lower than its open but also lower than previous close, previous open and especially lower than previous low, among other conditions. TL candle does its best to tackle the trap of going against the trend: short when the price seems to be high in an uptrend or buy when the price seems to be low in a downtrend.
Parameters:
Volume Active Percentile % , Min Height Percentile of Bullish/Bearish Candle % . (Intraday)
Back Two Candles . (Intraday, day and above)
Usage:
After adding TL3CC to the chart, find Visual Order or Object Tree and bring TL3CC forward to be above the chart candle.
While a bullish trend includes green and yellow TL candles, a bearish trend includes red and yellow ones. It is the best to enter after the first bullish/bearish TL candle of each trend. It is extremely important, never ever try to go against TL candle.
There are many cases when red and green TL candles are twisted and we could have profit in both directions. It is the time that market is fluctuating strongly. We enter when TL candle has one color, but it changes to the opposite color after that as the price pulls back. In those cases, be calm and patient to wait for the first reversal to exit, it should come.

Contrast Color LibraryThis lightweight library provides a utility method that analyzes any provided background color and automatically chooses the optimal black or white foreground color to ensure maximum visual contrast and readability.
🟠 Algorithm
The library utilizes the HSP Color Model to calculate the brightness of the background color. The formula for this calculation is as follows:
brightness = sqrt(0.299 * R^2 + 0.587 * G^2 + 0.114 * B^2 )
The library chooses black as the foreground color if the brightness exceeds the threshold (default 0.5), and white otherwise.
TICK Strength Background ShadeThis indicator shades the background of each candle based on the strength off the current TICK.US chart. User can define the strength levels, which are by default set to 1-299 (lightest), 300-599, and 600+ (darkest). Best used on lower timeframe charts to help identify whether or not to remain in a trend, or if a trend is possibly reversing when you start to see the opposite color begin to appear following a trend.
Plot background depending on Index EMA 10 and EMA 20This indicator gives the user an easy way to check the conditions of the market.
Up market should be good for breakout traders.
Down market should be good for breakdown shortsellers
The others should be good for pullback buyers.
This script automaticlly check which index should be used for the depending on which ticker is view. If no match is found indicator will use IXIC as reference.
The script works for Nordic and US stocks.
"OMXSPI"
"OBX"
"OMXSPI"
"OMXHPI"
"OMXCPI"
"IXIC"
It then alculated the EMA10 and EMA20 for the index and plots the background depending on 6 differnet conditions.
EMA10 below EMA20 and EMA10 and EMA20 is sloping down. //Down market
EMA10 above EMA20 and EMA10 and EMA20 is sloping up. //Up market
EMA10 below EMA20 and EMA10 sloping up and EMA20 is sloping down. //First indication by market to move up
EMA10 above EMA20 and EMA10 sloping down and EMA20 is sloping up. //First indication by market to move down
EMA10 below EMA20 and EMA10 sloping up and EMA20 is sloping up. //Possible MA cross over
EMA10 below EMA20 and EMA10 sloping down and EMA20 is sloping down. //Possible MA cross over

█ EXAMPLE OF USAGE / EXPLAINATION
Volume Candlesticks [cajole]
This script lets you create the equivalent of "volume candlesticks" in TradingView.
"Volume candlesticks" normally vary their width according to the bar's volume. This script varies COLOUR instead of WIDTH.
Bar charts are also supported.
Candles/Bars are coloured by their distance from the average volume. You can also add a "huge volume" colour to further highlight the most extremely-high volume bars.
Note that volume is extrapolated for incomplete bars by default. So, if the average volume of the past 10 days is 5M shares, and 5M shares trade in the first 10% of today's session, that bar will be coloured as though 50M shares have traded. Set the "Extrapolate" option to 1.0 to disable this.
For this script to work properly, you should set TradingView's default candle/bar colours to be at least 20% transparent. By default, TradingView tends to overlay its own bars on top of indicators.
Nerdy details:
The script works best on a dark background, because it is easier to change the hue of white bars than of black bars. If you find a set of colours that work for white backgrounds, please comment with them!
The geometric mean is used instead of the arithmetic mean, to keep the 'average' from being strongly influenced by spikes. Bars are
then coloured by assuming a normal probability distribution and highlighting outliers. (This means that the first high-volume bars are coloured differently to later ones.)
toolsLibrary "tools"
A library of many helper methods, plus a comprehensive print method and a printer object.
This is a newer version of the helpers library. This script uses pinescripts v5 latest objects and methods.
Ignition Cha Cha ChaIgnition Cha Cha Cha (ICCC) is a 3 color coded moving average indicator which numerically quantify the angle of their trends. I have labeled them as fast, medium and slow. The trend colors are Green for bullish, Red for bearish and Grey for sideways. The sideways movement can be user defined for all 3 in the settings under Threshold. If you regard for example anything under 10º as sideways then place 10 in the corresponding threshold and any angle under 10º will give a grey moving average and a grey labeled text. I use this chart in several ways. If you don't want moving averages all over your Chartistic Masterpiece you can turn off the plots and leave the numeric angles which will give you an overview of the trend. Conversely if you want to make the ultimate trend chart you can setup a 4 chart layout, Weekly, Daily, 12 hour and 4 hour and add the indicator with 200/50/25 moving averages and look for confluence. I find the best way for this is turn off the candles and use the moving averages with the numeric labels. You also have the ability to turn off and on different aspects of the indicator so that there is good control over its look. Also I have given the indicator lots of Alert presets for all 3 of the moving averages so you can avoid demented screen-stairing. Please forgive the name, my mother made me do Ballroom dancing lessons as a kid.
Colorize Large Candles// I have written a Pine Script to re-paint large candles in a different Color.
// You can set the value that you want to use to define what is 'Large', and the script will re-paint any candle whose size is equal to or greater than your value.
// The number can be an integer (8) or a decimal (7.5).
// You can enable the size measurement to be done in one of two ways: 1) either on the Body (Open-to-Close); 2) or on the Wicks (High-to-Low) of the candle.
// The color of the re-painted candle can be set independently for Up and for Down candles. You can also set any Opacity that you want for these candles.
// I usually set the limit for the Visibility to the Second- and Minute-timeframes, as the Script produces too many Colorized Bars when using the Hour- or Day- timeframes.
ColorUtility for working with colors.
Get the luminosity of a color and determine the optimal (black or white) foreground color.
Support and Resistance Intensity ZonesSupport and resistance are often drawn using lines. This is too simple and doesn't give a clear idea of the market sentiment at these particular levels. What is strong support and resistance? What is weak support and resistance. How can either be defined by a single price point?
Using a simple, clean and configurable solution, this indicator not only shows these support and resistance levels as zones, it also gives them a colour gradient based on their intensity.
It does this by letting you choose the pivot highs and lows within a chosen range back. Then you choose one of two options to display how these multiple pivots at the same levels look. You can either group these pivots together into 'zones', where grouped pivots are all separated by a chosen price percentage, choosing how many zones to display, the most grouped pivots being the most intense colour.
Alternatively you display the pivots by 'gradient', where the closer the pivots are together in price the more intense the colour. As pivots diverge apart, the colour weakens.
Both of these options have to be seen to realise how much more there is to support and resistance than a single line.

Consolidation Breakout [Indian Market Timing]OK let's get started ,
A Day Trading (Intraday) Consolidation Breakout Indication Strategy that explains time condition for Indian Markets .
The commission is also included in the strategy .
The basic idea is ,
1) Price crosses above upper band , indicated by a color change (green) is the Long condition .
2) Price crosses below lower band , indicated by a color change (red) is the Short condition .
3) ATR is used for trailing after entry
// ═══════════════════════════════//
// ————————> TIME CONDITION <————————— //
// ═══════════════════════════════//
The Indian Markets open at 9:15am and closes at 3:30pm.
The time_condition specifies the time at which Entries should happen .
"Close All" function closes all the trades at 2:57pm.
All open trades get closed at 2:57pm , because some brokers dont allow you to place fresh intraday orders after 3pm.
NSE:NIFTY1!

Therefore created 2 zones for easy identification.
Intraday Background Time RangesThis simple script was written for studying recurring intraday behaviours of financial instruments. With it, you can highlight up to 13 customizable time ranges on your chart, filling the corresponding background space with colors you prefer. You can then write a note for each range and it will be shown in the optional related table.
The experience shows that every financial instrument has its own personality. With this in mind, the script can be useful to study intraday charts with the purpose of discovering recurring behaviours of specific instruments over a certain time range and under specific circumstances (normal days, earnings days, days with catalysts, etc.) This can help the trader to deeply understand the instrument personality, and therefore also to decide whether to enter or exit the market if its behaviour meets or not his expectations.
Please note that this script only works on minute/hourly charts.
