Smart DCA Strategy (Public)INSPIRATION
While Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) is a popular and stress-free investment approach, I noticed an opportunity for enhancement. Standard DCA involves buying consistently, regardless of market conditions, which can sometimes mean missing out on optimal investment opportunities. This led me to develop the Smart DCA Strategy – a 'set and forget' method like traditional DCA, but with an intelligent twist to boost its effectiveness.
The goal was to build something more profitable than a standard DCA strategy so it was equally important that this indicator could backtest its own results in an A/B test manner against the regular DCA strategy.
WHY IS IT SMART?
The key to this strategy is its dynamic approach: buying aggressively when the market shows signs of being oversold, and sitting on the sidelines when it's not. This approach aims to optimize entry points, enhancing the potential for better returns while maintaining the simplicity and low stress of DCA.
WHAT THIS STRATEGY IS, AND IS NOT
This is an investment style strategy. It is designed to improve upon the common standard DCA investment strategy. It is therefore NOT a day trading strategy. Feel free to experiment with various timeframes, but it was designed to be used on a daily timeframe and that's how I recommend it to be used.
You may also go months without any buy signals during bull markets, but remember that is exactly the point of the strategy - to keep your buying power on the sidelines until the markets have significantly pulled back. You need to be patient and trust in the historical backtesting you have performed.
HOW IT WORKS
The Smart DCA Strategy leverages a creative approach to using Moving Averages to identify the most opportune moments to buy. A trigger occurs when a daily candle, in its entirety including the high wick, closes below the threshold line or box plotted on the chart. The indicator is designed to facilitate both backtesting and live trading.
HOW TO USE
Settings:
The input parameters for tuning have been intentionally simplified in an effort to prevent users falling into the overfitting trap.
The main control is the Buying strictness scale setting. Setting this to a lower value will provide more buying days (less strict) while higher values mean less buying days (more strict). In my testing I've found level 9 to provide good all round results.
Validation days is a setting to prevent triggering entries until the asset has spent a given number of days (candles) in the overbought state. Increasing this makes entries stricter. I've found 0 to give the best results across most assets.
In the backtest settings you can also configure how much to buy for each day an entry triggers. Blind buy size is the amount you would buy every day in a standard DCA strategy. Smart buy size is the amount you would buy each day a Smart DCA entry is triggered.
You can also experiment with backtesting your strategy over different historical datasets by using the Start date and End date settings. The results table will not calculate for any trades outside what you've set in the date range settings.
Backtesting:
When backtesting you should use the results table on the top right to tune and optimise the results of your strategy. As with all backtests, be careful to avoid overfitting the parameters. It's better to have a setup which works well across many currencies and historical periods than a setup which is excellent on one dataset but bad on most others. This gives a much higher probability that it will be effective when you move to live trading.
The results table provides a clear visual representation as to which strategy, standard or smart, is more profitable for the given dataset. You will notice the columns are dynamically coloured red and green. Their colour changes based on which strategy is more profitable in the A/B style backtest - green wins, red loses. The key metrics to focus on are GOA (Gain on Account) and Avg Cost.
Live Trading:
After you've finished backtesting you can proceed with configuring your alerts for live trading.
But first, you need to estimate the amount you should buy on each Smart DCA entry. We can use the Total invested row in the results table to calculate this. Assuming we're looking to trade on
BTCUSD
Decide how much USD you would spend each day to buy BTC if you were using a standard DCA strategy. Lets say that is $5 per day
Enter that USD amount in the Blind buy size settings box
Check the Blind Buy column in the results table. If we set the backtest date range to the last 10 years, we would expect the amount spent on blind buys over 10 years to be $18,250 given $5 each day
Next we need to tweak the value of the Smart buy size parameter in setting to get it as close as we can to the Total Invested amount for Blind Buy
By following this approach it means we will invest roughly the same amount into our Smart DCA strategy as we would have into a standard DCA strategy over any given time period.
After you have calculated the Smart buy size, you can go ahead and set up alerts on Smart DCA buy triggers.
BOT AUTOMATION
In an effort to maintain the 'set and forget' stress-free benefits of a standard DCA strategy, I have set my personal Smart DCA Strategy up to be automated. The bot runs on AWS and I have a fully functional project for the bot on my GitHub account. Just reach out if you would like me to point you towards it. You can also hook this into any other 3rd party trade automation system of your choice using the pre-configured alerts within the indicator.
PLANNED FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
Currently this is purely an accumulation strategy. It does not have any sell signals right now but I have ideas on how I will build upon it to incorporate an algorithm for selling. The strategy should gradually offload profits in bull markets which generates more USD which gives more buying power to rinse and repeat the same process in the next cycle only with a bigger starting capital. Watch this space!
MARKETS
Crypto:
This strategy has been specifically built to work on the crypto markets. It has been developed, backtested and tuned against crypto markets and I personally only run it on crypto markets to accumulate more of the coins I believe in for the long term. In the section below I will provide some backtest results from some of the top crypto assets.
Stocks:
I've found it is generally more profitable than a standard DCA strategy on the majority of stocks, however the results proved to be a lot more impressive on crypto. This is mainly due to the volatility and cycles found in crypto markets. The strategy makes its profits from capitalising on pullbacks in price. Good stocks on the other hand tend to move up and to the right with less significant pullbacks, therefore giving this strategy less opportunity to flourish.
Forex:
As this is an accumulation style investment strategy, I do not recommend that you use it to trade Forex.

[blackcat] L1 Simple Dual Channel Breakout█ OVERVIEW
The script " L1 Simple Dual Channel Breakout" is an indicator designed to plot dual channel breakout bands and their long-term EMAs on a chart. It calculates short-term and long-term moving averages and deviations to establish upper, lower, and middle bands, which traders can use to identify potential breakout opportunities.
█ LOGICAL FRAMEWORK
Structure:
The script is structured into several main sections:
• Input Parameters: The script does not explicitly define input parameters for the user to adjust, but it uses default values for short_term_length (5) and long_term_length (181).
• Calculations: The calculate_dual_channel_breakout function performs the core calculations, including the blast condition, typical price, short-term and long-term moving averages, and dynamic moving averages.
• Plotting: The script plots the short-term bands (upper, lower, and middle) and their long-term EMAs. It also plots conditional line breaks when the short-term bands cross the long-term EMAs.
Flow of Data and Logic:
1 — The script starts by defining the calculate_dual_channel_breakout function.
2 — Inside the function, it calculates various moving averages and deviations based on the input prices and lengths.
3 — The function returns the calculated bands and EMAs.
4 — The script then calls this function with predefined lengths and plots the resulting bands and EMAs on the chart.
5 — Conditional plots are added to highlight breakouts when the short-term bands cross the long-term EMAs.
█ CUSTOM FUNCTIONS
The script defines one custom function:
• calculate_dual_channel_breakout(close_price, high_price, low_price, short_term_length, long_term_length): This function calculates the short-term and long-term bands and EMAs. It takes five parameters: close_price, high_price, low_price, short_term_length, and long_term_length. It returns an array containing the upper band, lower band, middle band, long-term upper EMA, long-term lower EMA, and long-term middle EMA.
█ KEY POINTS AND TECHNIQUES
• Typical Price Calculation: The script uses a modified typical price calculation (2 * close_price + high_price + low_price) / 4 instead of the standard (high_price + low_price + close_price) / 3.
• Short-term and Long-term Bands: The script calculates short-term bands using a simple moving average (SMA) of the typical price and long-term bands using a relative moving average (RMA) of the close price.
• Conditional Plotting: The script uses conditional plotting to highlight breakouts when the short-term bands cross the long-term EMAs, enhancing visual identification of trading signals.
• EMA for Long-term Trends: The use of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) for long-term bands helps in smoothing out short-term fluctuations and focusing on long-term trends.
█ EXTENDED KNOWLEDGE AND APPLICATIONS
• Modifications: Users can add input parameters to allow customization of short_term_length and long_term_length, making the indicator more flexible.
• Enhancements: The script could be extended to include alerts for breakout conditions, providing traders with real-time notifications.
• Alternative Bands: Users might experiment with different types of moving averages (e.g., WMA, HMA) for the short-term and long-term bands to see if they yield better results.
• Additional Indicators: Combining this indicator with other technical indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD) could provide a more comprehensive trading strategy.
• Backtesting: Users can backtest the strategy using Pine Script's strategy functions to evaluate its performance over historical data.
VWAP SlopeThis script calculates and displays the slope of the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) . It compares the current VWAP with its value from a user-defined lookback period to determine the slope. The slope is color-coded: green for an upward trend (positive slope) and red for a downward trend (negative slope) .
Key Points:
VWAP Calculation: The script calculates the VWAP based on a user-defined timeframe (default: daily), which represents the average price weighted by volume.
Slope Determination: The slope is calculated by comparing the current VWAP to its value from a previous period, providing insight into market trends.
Color-Coding: The slope line is color-coded to visually indicate the market direction: green for uptrend and red for downtrend.
This script helps traders identify the direction of the market based on VWAP , offering a clear view of trends and potential turning points.
VWAP - TrendThis Pine Script calculates the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) for a specified timeframe and plots its Linear Regression over a user-defined lookback period . The regression line is color-coded: green indicates an uptrend and red indicates a downtrend. The line is broken at the end of each day to prevent it from extending into the next day, ensuring clarity on a daily basis.
Key Features:
VWAP Calculation: The VWAP is calculated based on a selected timeframe, providing a smoothed average price considering volume.
Linear Regression: The script calculates a linear regression of the VWAP over a custom lookback period to capture the underlying trend.
Color-Coding: The regression line is color-coded to easily identify trends—green for an uptrend and red for a downtrend.
Day-End Break: The regression line breaks at the end of each day to prevent continuous plotting across days, which helps keep the analysis focused within daily intervals.
User Inputs: The user can adjust the VWAP timeframe and the linear regression lookback period to tailor the indicator to their preferences.
This script provides a visual representation of the VWAP trend, helping traders identify potential market directions and turning points based on the linear regression of the VWAP.
Moving Average Cross; Linear RegressionThis Pine Script is designed to display smoothed linear regression lines on a chart, with an option to adjust the regression period lengths and smoothing factor. The script calculates short-term and long-term linear regression lines based on the selected timeframe. These regression lines act as a regressed moving average cross , visually representing the interaction between the two smoothed linear regressions.
Short Regression Line: A linear regression line based on a short lookback period, colored blue for an uptrend and orange for a downtrend .
Long Regression Line: A linear regression line based on a longer lookback period, similarly colored blue for an uptrend and orange for a downtrend .
The script provides input options to adjust:
The length of short and long regression periods.
The smoothing length for the regression lines.
The timeframe for the linear regression calculations.
This tool can help traders observe the crossovers between the two smoothed linear regression lines, which are similar to moving average crossovers, but with the added benefit of regression-based smoothing to reduce noise. The color-coding allows for easy trend identification, with blue indicating an uptrend and orange indicating a downtrend.

Trend Strength/DirectionThis is a really good, though complex indicator, so I will add two different explanations so to appease both the laymen and those who take the time to read thoroughly.
Simple Explanation
This indicator utilizes 6HMA's to display their angles
The greater the angle ---> the stronger the trend
If more angles are positive, then trend is very strong
If more are negative, then very negative
Comprehensive Explanation
6 angles, each of a different time frame are used to represent direction and trend strength. Angles are used because they intrinsically represent momentum and speed. An angle of 45 represents a perfect balance between something that can cover the furthest distance without compensating for speed. 1 of the 6 angles is intended(though customizable) to represent the 5 hma's angle. This is because the 5hma is very good at representing very near term price action.
Angle Levels
Its important to understand what the angle levels mean for the underlying hma's. The 0 level represents a hma that is horizontal. This is important because this is the point at which it decides to be bullish or bearish. +/- 45, as noted before, represent bullishness/bearishness that represent strong trends without compensating for speed. A continuous increase/decrease and or a cross of these levels generally indicate significant change in sentiment, of which trades may be taken.
Strategy
You should weigh your decision by those angles that represent the longer time frame. If more angles represent a certain sentiment, it is obviously unwise to fight against that long term sentiment. The purpose of this indicator was to provide a proper representation of trend direction and strength, but also solve the problem of when you should 'dip' buy.
For an example: if all angles are increase or decreasing, then you may use the 5hma's angle to find the proper points at which you will enter a position.
***NOTE: I dont think the +/- 45 bands should indicate 'overbought' or 'oversold' zones that some might assume. Instead you should wait for a crossing of this zone.

Loacally Weighted MA (LWMA) Direction HistogramThe Locally Weighted Moving Average (LWMA) Direction Histogram indicator is designed to provide traders with a visual representation of the price momentum and trend direction. This Pine Script, written in version 6, calculates an LWMA by assigning higher weights to recent data points, emphasizing the most current market movements. The script incorporates user-defined input parameters, such as the LWMA length and a direction lookback period, making it flexible to adapt to various trading strategies and preferences.
The histogram visually represents the difference between the current LWMA and a previous LWMA value (based on the lookback period). Positive values are colored blue, indicating upward momentum, while negative values are yellow, signaling downward movement. Additionally, the script colors candlesticks according to the histogram's value, enhancing clarity for users analyzing market trends. The LWMA line itself is plotted on the chart but hidden by default, enabling traders to toggle its visibility as needed. This blend of histogram and candlestick visualization offers a comprehensive tool for identifying shifts in momentum and potential trading opportunities.
Zero-Lag MA CandlesThe Zero-Lag MA Candles indicator combines the efficiency of a Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA) with dynamic candlestick coloring to provide a clear visual representation of market trends. By leveraging a dual EMA-based calculation, the ZLMA achieves reduced lag, enhancing its responsiveness to price changes. The indicator plots candles on the chart with colors determined by the trend direction of the ZLMA over a user-defined lookback period. Blue candles signify an uptrend, while yellow candles indicate a downtrend, offering traders an intuitive way to identify market sentiment.
This indicator is particularly useful for trend-following strategies, as the crossover and crossunder between the ZLMA and the standard EMA highlight potential reversal points or trend continuation zones. With customizable inputs for ZLMA length, trend lookback period, and color schemes, it caters to diverse trading preferences. Its ability to plot directly on the chart ensures seamless integration with other analysis tools, making it a valuable addition to a trader's toolkit.

Strength of Divergence Across Multiple Indicators (+CMF&VWMACD)Modified Version of Strength of Divergence Across Multiple Indicators by reees
Purpose:
This Pine Script indicator is designed to identify and evaluate the strength of bullish and bearish divergences across multiple technical indicators. Divergences occur when the price of an asset is moving in one direction while a technical indicator is moving in the opposite direction, potentially signaling a trend reversal.
Key Features:
1. Multiple Indicator Support: The script now analyzes divergences for the following indicators:
* RSI (Relative Strength Index)
* OBV (On-Balance Volume)
* MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence)
* STOCH (Stochastic Oscillator)
* CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
* MFI (Money Flow Index)
* AO (Awesome Oscillator)
* CMF (Chaikin Money Flow) - Newly added
* VWMACD (Volume-Weighted MACD) - Newly added
2. Customizable Divergence Parameters:
* Bullish/Bearish: Enable or disable the detection of bullish and bearish divergences independently.
* Regular/Hidden: Detect both regular and hidden divergences (hidden divergences can indicate trend continuation).
* Broken Trendline Exclusion: Optionally ignore divergences where the trendline connecting price pivots is broken by an intermediate pivot.
* Pivot Lookback Periods: Adjust the number of bars used to identify valid pivot highs and lows for divergence calculations.
* Weighting: Assign different weights to regular vs. hidden divergences and to the relative change in price vs. the indicator.
3. Indicator-Specific Settings:
* Weight: Each indicator can be assigned a weight, influencing its contribution to the overall divergence strength calculation.
* Extreme Value: Define a threshold above which an indicator's divergence is considered "extreme," giving it a higher strength rating.
4. Divergence Strength Calculation:
* For each indicator, the script calculates a divergence "degree" based on the magnitude of the divergence and the user-defined weightings.
* The total divergence strength is the sum of the individual indicator divergence degrees.
* Strength is categorized as "Extreme," "Very strong," "Strong," "Moderate," "Weak," or "Very weak."
5. Visualization:
* Divergence Lines: The script draws lines on the chart connecting the price and indicator pivots that form a divergence (optional, with customizable transparency).
* Labels: Labels display the total divergence strength and a breakdown of each indicator's contribution. The size and visibility of labels are based on the strength.
6. Alerts:
* The script can generate alerts when the total divergence strength exceeds a user-defined threshold.
New Indicators (CMF and VWMACD):
* Chaikin Money Flow (CMF):
* Purpose: Measures the buying and selling pressure by analyzing the relationship between price, volume, and the accumulation/distribution line.
* Divergence: A bullish CMF divergence occurs when the price makes a lower low, but the CMF makes a higher low (suggesting increasing buying pressure). A bearish divergence is the opposite.
* Volume-Weighted MACD (VWMACD):
* Purpose: Similar to the standard MACD but uses volume-weighted moving averages instead of simple moving averages, giving more weight to periods with higher volume.
* Divergence: Divergences are interpreted similarly to the standard MACD, but the VWMACD can be more sensitive to volume changes.
How It Works (Simplified):
1. Pivot Detection: The script identifies pivot highs and lows in both price and the selected indicators using the specified lookback periods.
2. Divergence Check: For each indicator:
* It checks if a series of pivots in price and the indicator are diverging (e.g., price makes a lower low, but the indicator makes a higher low for a bullish divergence).
* It calculates the divergence degree based on the difference in price and indicator values, weightings, and whether it's a regular or hidden divergence.
3. Strength Aggregation: The script sums up the divergence degrees of all enabled indicators to get the total divergence strength.
4. Visualization and Alerts: It draws lines and labels on the chart to visualize the divergences and generates alerts if the total strength exceeds the set threshold.
Benefits:
* Comprehensive Divergence Analysis: By considering multiple indicators, the script provides a more robust assessment of potential trend reversals.
* Customization: The many adjustable parameters allow traders to fine-tune the script to their specific trading style and preferences.
* Objective Strength Evaluation: The divergence strength calculation and categorization offer a more objective way to evaluate the significance of divergences.
* Early Warning System: Divergences can often precede significant price movements, making this script a valuable tool for anticipating potential trend changes.
* Volume Confirmation: The inclusion of CMF and VWMACD add volume-based confirmation to the divergence signals, potentially increasing their reliability.
Limitations:
* Lagging Indicators: Most of the indicators used are lagging, meaning they are based on past price data. Divergences may sometimes occur after a significant price move has already begun.
* False Signals: No indicator is perfect, and divergences can sometimes produce false signals, especially in choppy or ranging markets.
* Subjectivity: While the script aims for objectivity, some settings (like weightings and extreme values) still involve a degree of subjective judgment.

Adaptive Price Zone Oscillator [QuantAlgo]Adaptive Price Zone Oscillator 🎯📊
The Adaptive Price Zone (APZ) Oscillator by QuantAlgo is an advanced technical indicator designed to identify market trends and reversals through adaptive price zones based on volatility-adjusted bands. This sophisticated system combines typical price analysis with dynamic volatility measurements to help traders and investors identify trend direction, potential reversals, and market volatility conditions. By evaluating both price action and volatility together, this tool enables users to make informed trading decisions while adapting to changing market conditions.
💫 Dynamic Zone Architecture
The APZ Oscillator provides a unique framework for assessing market trends through a blend of smoothed typical prices and volatility-based calculations. Unlike traditional oscillators that use fixed parameters, this system incorporates dynamic volatility measurements to adjust sensitivity automatically, helping users determine whether price movements are significant relative to current market conditions. By combining smoothed price trends with adaptive volatility zones, it evaluates both directional movement and market volatility, while the smoothing parameters ensure stable yet responsive signals. This adaptive approach allows users to identify trending conditions while remaining aware of volatility expansions and contractions, enhancing both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies.
📊 Indicator Components & Mechanics
The APZ Oscillator is composed of several technical components that create a dynamic trending system:
Typical Price: Utilizes HLC3 (High, Low, Close average) as a balanced price representation
Volatility Measurement: Computes exponential moving average of price changes to determine dynamic zones
Smoothed Calculations: Applies additional smoothing to reduce noise while maintaining responsiveness
Trend Detection: Evaluates price position relative to adaptive zones to determine market direction
📈 Key Indicators and Features
The APZ Oscillator utilizes typical price with customizable length and threshold parameters to adapt to different trading styles. Volatility calculations are applied to determine zone boundaries, providing context-aware levels for trend identification. The trend detection component evaluates price action relative to the adaptive zones, helping validate trends and identify potential reversals.
The indicator also incorporates multi-layered visualization with:
Color-coded trend representation (bullish/bearish)
Clear trend state indicators (+1/-1)
Mean reversion signals with distinct markers
Gradient fills for better visual clarity
Programmable alerts for trend changes

Granville Entry GuideThis indicator is designed to identify trade entry points using patterns 2 and 3 of the Granville's Law. It is compatible with version 6.
Determining Entry Points
・ Long Entry : When the medium-term moving average is rising, if the stock price falls close to or below the moving average and then begins to rise, with that bar being a bullish candle, it is determined as an entry point. At this time, a red circle will be displayed above the bar.
・ Short Entry : When the medium-term moving average is falling, if the stock price rises close to or above the moving average and then begins to fall, with that bar being a bearish candle, it is determined as an entry point. At this time, a blue circle will be displayed below the bar.
Trend Filter
Entry points will only be displayed if the following trend conditions are met:
・In an uptrend, the order of moving averages should be: short-term moving average, medium-term moving average, and long-term moving average from top to bottom. In a downtrend, the order should be: long-term moving average, medium-term moving average, and short-term moving average from top to bottom. The order of the short-term moving average is flexible.
・The medium-term and long-term moving averages should be inclined in the direction of the trend. The inclination of the short-term moving average is flexible.
Adjusting Parameters
・ Stock Selection : You can choose whether to use the stock price from candlesticks or the short-term moving average for determining entry points. Selecting candlesticks allows for quicker determination but increases noise, while selecting the short-term moving average slows down determination but reduces noise. The default value is the short-term moving average.
・ Determining Pullbacks or Retracements : This is determined by the number of bars on either side of the lowest point of the pullback. Increasing the number of bars reduces noise but may result in missed opportunities. The default values are 3 bars on the left and 1 bar on the right.
・ Use of Trend Filter : You can choose whether to use the trend filter. The default setting is to use it.
・ Conditions for Moving Average Inclination : You can choose whether to include the trend direction inclination in the trend filter conditions. The default setting is to include it.
・ Bar Background Color : The trend filter is displayed with the bar's background color, but it can also be set to not display.

Prediction Based on Linreg & Atr
We created this algorithm with the goal of predicting future prices 📊, specifically where the value of any asset will go in the next 20 periods ⏳. It uses linear regression based on past prices, calculating a slope and an intercept to forecast future behavior 🔮. This prediction is then adjusted according to market volatility, measured by the ATR 📉, and the direction of trend signals, which are based on the MACD and moving averages 📈.
How Does the Linreg & ATR Prediction Work?
1. Trend Calculation and Signals:
o Technical Indicators: We use short- and long-term exponential moving averages (EMA), RSI, MACD, and Bollinger Bands 📊 to assess market direction and sentiment (not visually presented in the script).
o Calculation Functions: These include functions to calculate slope, average, intercept, standard deviation, and Pearson's R, which are crucial for regression analysis 📉.
2. Predicting Future Prices:
o Linear Regression: The algorithm calculates the slope, average, and intercept of past prices to create a regression channel 📈, helping to predict the range of future prices 🔮.
o Standard Deviation and Pearson's R: These metrics determine the strength of the regression 🔍.
3. Adjusting the Prediction:
o The predicted value is adjusted by considering market volatility (ATR 📉) and the direction of trend signals 🔮, ensuring that the prediction is aligned with the current market environment 🌍.
4. Visualization:
o Prediction Lines and Bands: The algorithm plots lines that display the predicted future price along with a prediction range (upper and lower bounds) 📉📈.
5. EMA Cross Signals:
o EMA Conditions and Total Score: A bullish crossover signal is generated when the total score is positive and the short EMA crosses above the long EMA 📈. A bearish crossover signal is generated when the total score is negative and the short EMA crosses below the long EMA 📉.
6. Additional Considerations:
o Multi-Timeframe Regression Channel: The script calculates regression channels for different timeframes (5m, 15m, 30m, 4h) ⏳, helping determine the overall market direction 📊 (not visually presented).
Confidence Interpretation:
• High Confidence (close to 100%): Indicates strong alignment between timeframes with a clear trend (bullish or bearish) 🔥.
• Low Confidence (close to 0%): Shows disagreement or weak signals between timeframes ⚠️.
Confidence complements the interpretation of the prediction range and expected direction 🔮, aiding in decision-making for market entry or exit 🚀.
