Weighted Regression Bands (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Weighted Regression Bands is a precision-engineered trend and volatility tool designed to adapt to the real market structure instead of reacting to price noise.
This indicator analyzes Weighted High/Low medians and applies user-selectable smoothing methods — including Kalman Filtering, ALMA, and custom Linear Regression — to generate a Fair Value line. Around this, it constructs dynamic standard deviation bands that adapt in real-time to market volatility.
The result is a visually clean and structurally intelligent trend framework suitable for breakout traders, mean reversion strategies, and trend-driven analysis.
█ How It Works
⚪ Structural High/Low Analysis
At the heart of this indicator is a custom high/low weighting system. Instead of using just the raw high or low values, it calculates a midline = (high + low) / 2, then applies one of three weighting methods to determine which price zones matter most.
Users can select the method using the “Weighted HL Method” setting:
Simple
Selects the single most dominant median (highest or lowest) in the lookback window. Ideal for fast, reactive signals.
Advanced
Ranks each bar based on a composite score: median × range × recency. This method highlights structurally meaningful bars that had both volatility and recency. A built-in Kalman filter is applied for extra stability.
Smooth
Blends multiple bars into a single weighted average using smoothed decay and range. This provides the softest and most stable structural response.
⚪ Smoothing Methods (ALMA / Linear Regression)
ALMA provides responsive, low-lag smoothing for fast trend reading.
Linear Regression projects the Fair Value forward, ideal for trend modeling.
⚪ Kalman Smoothing Filter
Before trend calculations, the indicator applies an optional Kalman-style smoothing filter. This helps:
Reduce choppy false shifts in trend,
Retain signal clarity during volatile periods,
Provide stability for long-term setups.
⚪ Deviation Bands (Dynamic Volatility Envelopes)
The indicator builds ±1, ±2, and ±3 standard deviation bands around the fair value line:
Calculated from the standard deviation of price,
Bands expand and contract based on recent volatility,
Visualizes potential overbought/oversold or trending conditions.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Trading & Filtering
Use the Fair Value line to identify the dominant direction.
Only trade in the direction of the slope for higher probability setups.
⚪ Volatility-Based Entries
Watch for price reaching outer bands (+2σ, +3σ) for possible exhaustion.
Mean reversion entries become higher quality when far from Fair Value.
█ Settings
Length – Lookback for Weighted HL and trend smoothing
Deviation Multiplier – Controls how wide the bands are from the fair value line
Method – Choose between ALMA or Linear Regression smoothing
Smoothing – Strength of Kalman Filter (1 = none, <1 = stronger smoothing)

Regression Slope ShiftNormalized Regression Slope Shift + Dynamic Histogram
This indicator detects subtle shifts in price momentum using a rolling linear regression approach. It calculates the slope of a linear regression line for each bar over a specified lookback period, then measures how that slope changes from bar to bar.
Both the slope and its change (delta) are normalized to a -1 to 1 scale for consistent visual interpretation across assets and timeframes. A signal line (EMA) is applied to the slope delta to help identify turning points and crossovers.
Key features:
- Normalized slope and slope change lines
- Dynamic histogram of slope delta with transparency based on magnitude
- Customizable colors for all visual elements
- Signal line for crossover-based momentum shifts
This tool helps traders anticipate trend acceleration or weakening before traditional momentum indicators react, making it useful for early trend detection, divergence spotting, and confirmation signals.
Cointegration Heatmap & Spread Table [EdgeTerminal]The Cointegration Heatmap is a powerful visual and quantitative tool designed to uncover deep, statistically meaningful relationships between assets.
Unlike traditional indicators that react to price movement, this tool analyzes the underlying statistical relationship between two time series and tracks when they diverge from their long-term equilibrium — offering actionable signals for mean-reversion trades .
What Is Cointegration?
Most traders are familiar with correlation, which measures how two assets move together in the short term. But correlation is shallow — it doesn’t imply a stable or predictable relationship over time.
Cointegration, however, is a deeper statistical concept: Two assets are cointegrated if a linear combination of their prices or returns is stationary , even if the individual series themselves are non-stationary.
Cointegration is a foundational concept in time series analysis, widely used by hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, and quantitative researchers. This indicator brings that institutional-grade concept into an easy-to-use and fully visual TradingView indicator.
This tool helps answer key questions like:
“Which stocks tend to move in sync over the long term?”
“When are two assets diverging beyond statistical norms?”
“Is now the right time to short one and long the other?”
Using a combination of regression analysis, residual modeling, and Z-score evaluation, this indicator surfaces opportunities where price relationships are stretched and likely to snap back — making it ideal for building low-risk, high-probability trade setups.
In simple terms:
Cointegrated assets drift apart temporarily, but always come back together over time. This behavior is the foundation of successful pairs trading.
How the Indicator Works
Cointegration Heatmap indicator works across any market supported on TradingView — from stocks and ETFs to cryptocurrencies and forex pairs.
You enter your list of symbols, choose a timeframe, and the indicator updates every bar with live cointegration scores, spread signals, and trade-ready insights.
Indicator Settings:
Symbol list: a customizable list of symbols separated by commas
Returns timeframe: time frame selection for return sampling (Weekly or Monthly)
Max periods: max periods to limit the data to a certain time and to control indicator performance
This indicator accomplishes three major goals in one streamlined package:
Identifies stable long-term relationships (cointegration) between assets, using a heatmap visualization.
Tracks the spread — the difference between actual prices and the predicted linear relationship — between each pair.
Generates trade signals based on Z-score deviations from the mean spread, helping traders know when a pair is statistically overextended and likely to mean revert.
The math:
Returns are calculated using spread tickers to ensure alignment in time and adjust for dividends, splits, and other inconsistencies.
For each unique pair of symbols, we perform a linear regression
Yt=α+βXt+ε
Then we compute the residuals (errors from the regression):
Spreadt=Yt−(α+βXt)
Calculate the standard deviation of the spread over a moving window (default: 100 samples) and finally, define the Cointegration Score:
S=1/Standard Deviation of Residuals
This means, the lower the deviation, the tighter the relationship, so higher scores indicate stronger cointegration.
Always remember that cointegration can break down so monitor the asset over time and over multiple different timeframes before making a decision.
How to use the indicator
The heatmap table:
The indicator displays 2 very important tables, one in the middle and one on the right side. After entering your symbols, the first table to pay attention to is the middle heatmap table.
Any assets with a cointegration value of 25% is something to pay attention to and have a strong and stable relationship. Anything below is weak and not tradable.
Additionally, the 40% level is another important line to cross. Assets that have a cointegration score of over 40% will most likely have an extremely strong relationship.
Think about it this way, the higher the percentage, the tighter and more statistically reliable the relationship is.
The spread table:
After finding a good asset pair using heatmap, locate the same pair in the spread table (right side).
Here’s what you’ll see on the table:
Spread: Current difference between the two symbols based on the regression fit
Mean: Historical average of that spread
Z-score: How far current spread is from the mean in standard deviations
Signal: Trade suggestion: Short, Long, or Neutral
Since you’re expecting mean reversion, the idea is that the spread will return to the average. You want to take a trade when the z-score is either over +2 or below -2 and exit when z-score returns to near 0.
You will usually see the trade suggestion on the spread chart but you can make your own decision based on your risk level.
Keep in mind that the Z-score for each pair refers to how off the first asset is from the mean compared to the second one, so for example if you see STOCKA vs STOCKB with a Z-score of -1.55, we are regressing STOCKB (Y) on STOCKA (X).
In this case, STOCKB is the quoted asset and STOCKA is the base asset.
In this case, this means that STOCKB is much lower than expected relative to STOCKA, so the trade would be a long position on stock B and short position on stock A.
Index Futures vs Cash ArbitrageThis indicator measures the statistical spread between major stock index futures and their corresponding cash indices (e.g., ES vs SPX, NQ vs NDX) using Z-score normalization. It automatically detects commonly traded index pairs (S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Russell 2000) and calculates a smoothed spread between futures and spot prices. A Z-score is then derived from this spread to highlight potential overpricing or underpricing conditions.
Traders can use customizable thresholds to identify mean-reversion opportunities where the futures contract may be temporarily overvalued or undervalued relative to the index. The histogram highlights the direction of the Z-score (green = futures > index, red = futures < index), while built-in alerts notify users of key threshold breaches or zero-line crosses.
This tool is designed for discretionary traders, pairs traders, or anyone exploring statistical arbitrage strategies between futures and spot markets. It is not a buy/sell signal by itself and should be used with additional confluence or risk management techniques.

- **Implementation**:
- Position size = (Account equity × Risk %) ÷ (Entry price × Stop loss distance)
- Adjusts automatically based on volatility and stop placement
- **Best Practices**:
- Start with lower risk percentages (1-2%) until strategy is proven
- Consider reducing risk during high volatility periods
### Stop-Loss Methods
Multiple stop-loss calculation methods with separate configurations for long and short positions:
| Method | Description | Configuration |
|--------|-------------|---------------|
| **ATR-Based** | Dynamic stops based on volatility | ATR Period: 14, Multiplier: 2.0 |
| **Percentage** | Fixed percentage from entry | Long: 1.5%, Short: 1.5% |
| **PIP-Based** | Fixed currency unit distance | 10.0 pips |
- **Implementation Notes**:
- ATR-based stops adapt to changing market volatility
- Percentage stops maintain consistent risk exposure
- PIP-based stops provide precise control in stable markets
### Trailing Stops
Locks in profits by adjusting stop-loss levels as price moves favorably:
| Setting | Default Value |
|---------|---------------|
| **Stop-Loss %** | 1.5% |
| **Activation Threshold** | 2.1% |
| **Trailing Distance** | 1.4% |
- **Implementation**:
- Initial stop remains fixed until profit reaches activation threshold
- Once activated, stop follows price at specified distance
- Locks in profit while allowing room for normal price fluctuations
### Risk-Reward Parameters
Defines the relationship between risk and potential reward:
| Setting | Default Value |
|---------|---------------|
| **Risk-Reward Ratio** | 1.4 |
| **Take Profit %** | 2.4% |
| **Stop-Loss %** | 1.5% |
- **Implementation**:
- Take profit distance = Stop loss distance × Risk-reward ratio
- Higher ratios require fewer winning trades for profitability
- Lower ratios increase win rate but reduce average profit
### Filter Combinations
The strategy allows for simultaneous application of multiple filters:
- **Recommended Combinations**:
- Trending markets: RSI + KEMAD filters
- Ranging markets: Bollinger Bands + Volatility filters
- All markets: Volume filter as minimum requirement
- **Performance Impact**:
- Each additional filter reduces the number of trades
- Quality of remaining trades typically improves
- Optimal combination depends on market conditions and timeframe
### Multi-Timeframe Filter Applications
| Filter Type | Current Timeframe | MTF1 (15min) | MTF2 (4h) |
|-------------|-------------------|-------------|------------|
| RSI | Quick entries/exits | Intraday trend | Overall trend |
| Volume | Immediate liquidity | Sustained support | Market participation |
| Volatility | Entry timing | Short-term risk | Regime changes |

## Conclusion
The ₿ober XM v2.0 represents a significant evolution in trading strategy design, combining traditional technical analysis with machine learning elements and multi-timeframe analysis. The core strength of this system lies in its adaptability and recognition of market asymmetry.
### Market Asymmetry and Adaptive Approach
The strategy acknowledges a fundamental truth about markets: bullish and bearish phases behave differently and should be treated as distinct environments. The dual-channel system with separate parameters for long and short positions directly addresses this asymmetry, allowing for optimized performance regardless of market direction.
### Targeted Backtesting Philosophy
It's counterproductive to run backtests over excessively long periods. Markets evolve continuously, and strategies that worked in previous market regimes may be ineffective in current conditions. Instead:
- Test specific market phases separately (bull markets, bear markets, range-bound periods)
- Regularly re-optimize parameters as market conditions change
- Focus on recent performance with higher weight than historical results
- Test across multiple timeframes to ensure robustness
### Multi-Timeframe Analysis as a Game-Changer
The integration of multi-timeframe analysis fundamentally transforms the strategy's effectiveness:
- **Increased Safety**: Higher timeframe confirmations reduce false signals and improve trade quality
- **Context Awareness**: Decisions made with awareness of larger trends reduce adverse entries
- **Adaptable Precision**: Apply strict filters on lower timeframes while maintaining awareness of broader conditions
- **Reduced Noise**: Higher timeframe data naturally filters market noise that can trigger poor entries
The ₿ober XM v2.0 provides traders with a framework that acknowledges market complexity while offering practical tools to navigate it. With proper setup, realistic expectations, and attention to changing market conditions, it delivers a sophisticated approach to systematic trading that can be continuously refined and optimized.
PolyBand Convergence System (PBCS)PolyBand Convergence System (PBCS)
The PolyBand Convergence System (PBCS) is an advanced technical analysis indicator that combines multiple polynomial regressions with statistical bands to identify trend strength and potential reversal zones.
Key Features
Multi-Degree Polynomial Analysis: Combines 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th degree polynomial regressions into a composite regression line
Adaptive Statistical Bands: Uses percentile-based bands enhanced with standard deviation multipliers

Machine Learning: ARIMA + SARIMADescription
The ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) and SARIMA (Seasonal ARIMA) are advanced statistical models that use machine learning to forecast future price movements. It uses autoregression to find the relationship between observed data and its lagged observations. The data is differenced to make it more predictable. The MA component creates a dependency between observations and residual errors. The parameters are automatically adjusted to market conditions.
Differences
ARIMA - This excels at identifying trends in the form of directions
SARIMA - Incorporates seasonality. It's better at capturing patterns previously seen
How To Use
1. Model: Determine if you want to use ARIMA (better for direction) or SARIMA (better for overall prediction). You can click on the 'Show Historic Prediction' to see the direction of the previous candles. Green = forecast ending up, red = forecast ending down
2. Metrics: The RMSE% and MAPE are 10 day moving averages of the first 10 predictions made at candle close. They're error metrics that compare the observed data with the predicted data. It is better to use them when they're below 8%. Higher timeframes will be higher, as these models are partly mean-reverting and higher TFs tend to trend more. Better to compare RMSE% and MAPE with similar timeframes. They naturally lag as data is being collected
3. Parameter selection: The simpler, the better. Both are used for ARIMA(1,1,1) and SARIMA(1,1,1)(1,1,1)5. Increasing may cause overfitting
4. Training period: Keep at 50. Because of limitations in pine, higher values do not make for more powerful forecasts. They will only criminally lag. So best to keep between 20 and 80
BTC vs ALT Lag Detector [MEXC Overlay]This indicator monitors the price movement of Bitcoin (BTC) and compares it in real time to a customizable list of major altcoins on the MEXC exchange.
It helps you identify lagging altcoins — tokens that are underperforming or overperforming BTC’s price action over a selected timeframe. These temporary deviations can offer profitable entry or rotation opportunities, especially for scalpers, day traders, and arbitrage-style strategies.
Key Features:
- Real-time deviation detection between BTC and altcoins
- Customizable comparison timeframe: 1m, 6m, 12m, 30m, 1h, 4h, or 1d
- Deviation threshold alert: Highlights coins that lag BTC by more than 0.5%, 1%, 2%, or 3%
- Compact stats table embedded in the price chart
- Fully adjustable layout: Table position (Top/Bottom/Center + Left/Right), Font size (Tiny, Small, Medium)
- Built-in alert system when deviation exceeds your chosen threshold
How to Use It:
Set your desired timeframe for comparison (e.g., 1 hour).
Select a deviation threshold (e.g., 1.0%).
The table will show:
Each altcoin’s % change
BTC’s % change
The delta (deviation) vs BTC
Red highlights indicate alts whose deviation exceeded the threshold.
When at least one alt lags beyond your threshold, the indicator can trigger an alert — helping you capitalize on potential catch-up trades.
Please provide any feedback on it.
Market Manipulation Index (MMI)The Composite Manipulation Index (CMI) is a structural integrity tool that quantifies how chaotic or orderly current market conditions are, with the aim of detecting potentially manipulated or unstable environments. It blends two distinct mathematical models that assess price behavior in terms of both structural rhythm and predictability.
1. Sine-Fit Deviation Model:
This component assumes that ideal, low-manipulation price behavior resembles a smooth oscillation, such as a sine wave. It generates a synthetic sine wave using a user-defined period and compares it to actual price movement over an adaptive window. The error between the real price and this synthetic wave—normalized by price variance—forms the Sine-Based Manipulation Index. A high error indicates deviation from natural rhythm, suggesting structural disorder.
2. Predictability-Based Model:
The second component estimates how well current price can be predicted using recent price lags. A two-variable rolling linear regression is computed between the current price and two lagged inputs (close and close ). If the predicted price diverges from the actual price, this error—also normalized by price variance—reflects unpredictability. High prediction error implies a more manipulated or erratic environment.
3. Adaptive Mechanism:
Both components are calculated using an adaptive smoothing window based on the Average True Range (ATR). This allows the indicator to respond proportionally to market volatility. During high volatility, the analysis window expands to avoid over-sensitivity; during calm periods, it contracts for better responsiveness.
4. Composite Output:
The two normalized metrics are averaged to form the final CMI value, which is then optionally smoothed further. The output is scaled between 0 and 1:
0 indicates a highly structured, orderly market.
1 indicates complete structural breakdown or randomness.
Suggested Interpretation:
CMI < 0.3: Market is clean and structured. Trend-following or breakout strategies may perform better.
CMI > 0.7: Market is structurally unstable. Choppy price action, fakeouts, or manipulative behavior may dominate.
CMI 0.3–0.7: Transitional zone. Caution or reduced risk may be warranted.
This indicator is designed to serve as a contextual filter, helping traders assess whether current market conditions are conducive to structured strategies, or if discretion and defense are more appropriate.
Liquidity Trap Reversal Pro (Radar v2)Liquidity Trap Reversal Pro (Radar v2) is a non-repainting indicator designed to detect hidden liquidity traps at key swing highs and lows.

Alerts Included: Set alerts for confirmed high/low liquidity traps.
📚 How to Use:
Watch for Trap Signals:
A Trap High signal suggests a potential bearish reversal.
A Trap Low signal suggests a potential bullish reversal.
Use Confirmed Signals for Best Entries:
Confirmed traps fire only after price moves opposite to the trap direction, adding reliability.
Use Trend Filters to Improve Accuracy:
In an uptrend (price above EMA), prefer Trap Lows (buy setups).
In a downtrend (price below EMA), prefer Trap Highs (sell setups).
Use the Exhaustion Guard to Avoid Bad Trades:
This filter blocks signals when price has moved too far from trend, helping avoid late entries.
Recommended Settings:
Best used on 15-minute, 1-hour, or 4-hour charts.
Trend filter ON for trending markets.
Exhaustion guard ON for volatile or stretched markets.
📈 Important Notes:
This script does not repaint once a pivot is confirmed.
Alerts trigger only on confirmed trap signals.
Always combine signals with sound risk management and trading strategy.

✅ Buy Signals: Triggered when price crosses above the lower boundary — potential bounce entry.
❌ Sell Signals: Triggered when price crosses below the upper boundary — potential reversal exit.
🔔 Alerts Enabled: Get real-time alerts when price touches the channel lines.
TASC 2025.05 Trading The Channel█ OVERVIEW
This script implements channel-based trading strategies based on the concepts explained by Perry J. Kaufman in the article "A Test Of Three Approaches: Trading The Channel" from the May 2025 edition of TASC's Traders' Tips . The script explores three distinct trading methods for equities and futures using information from a linear regression channel. Each rule set corresponds to different market behaviors, offering flexibility for trend-following, breakout, and mean-reversion trading styles.
█ CONCEPTS
Linear regression
Linear regression is a model that estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables by fitting a straight line to the observed data. In the context of financial time series, traders often use linear regression to estimate trends in price movements over time.
The slope of the linear regression line indicates the strength and direction of the price trend. For example, a larger positive slope indicates a stronger upward trend, and a larger negative slope indicates the opposite. Traders can look for shifts in the direction of a linear regression slope to identify potential trend trading signals, and they can analyze the magnitude of the slope to support trading decisions.
One caveat to linear regression is that most financial time series data does not follow a straight line, meaning a regression line cannot perfectly describe the relationships between values. Prices typically fluctuate around a regression line to some degree. As such, analysts often project ranges above and below regression lines, creating channels to model the expected extent of the data's variability. This strategy constructs a channel based on the method used in Kaufman's article. It measures the maximum distances from points on the linear regression line to historical price values, then adds those distances and the current slope to the regression points.
Depending on the trading style, traders might look for prices to move outside an established channel for breakout signals, or they might look for price action to reach extremes within the channel for potential mean reversion opportunities.
█ STRATEGY CALCULATIONS
Primary trade rules
This strategy implements three distinct sets of rules for trend, breakout, and mean-reversion trades based on the methods Kaufman describes in his article:
Trade the trend (Rule 1) : Open new positions when the sign of the slope changes, indicating a potential trend reversal. Close short trades and enter a long trade when the slope changes from negative to positive, and do the opposite when the slope changes from positive to negative.
Trade channel breakouts (Rule 2) : Open new positions when prices cross outside the linear regression channel for the current sample. Close short trades and enter a long trade when the price moves above the channel, and do the opposite when the price moves below the channel.
Trade within the channel (Rule 3) : Open new positions based on price values within the channel's range. Close short trades and enter a long trade when the price is near the channel's low, within a specified percentage of the channel's range, and do the opposite when the price is near the channel's high. With this rule, users can also filter the trades based on the channel's slope. When the filter is active, long positions are allowed only when the slope is positive, and short positions are allowed only when it is negative.
Position sizing
Kaufman's strategy uses specific trade sizes for equities and futures markets:
For an equities symbol, the number of shares traded is $10,000 divided by the current price.
For a futures symbol, the number of contracts traded is based on a volatility-adjusted formula that divides $25,000 by the product of the 20-bar average true range and the instrument's point value.
By default, this script automatically uses these sizes for its trade simulation on equities and futures symbols and does not simulate trading on other symbols. However, users can control position sizes from the "Settings/Properties" tab and enable trade simulation on other symbol types by selecting the "Manual" option in the script's "Position sizing" input.
Stop-loss
This strategy includes the option to place an accompanying stop-loss order for each trade, which users can enable from the "SL %" input in the "Settings/Inputs" tab. When enabled, the strategy places a stop-loss order at a specified percentage distance from the closing price where the entry order occurs, allowing users to compare how the strategy performs with added loss protection.
█ USAGE
This strategy adapts its display logic for the three trading approaches based on the rule selected in the "Trade rule" input:
For all rules, the script plots the linear regression slope in a separate pane. The plot is color-coded to indicate whether the current slope is positive or negative.
When the selected rule is "Trade the trend", the script plots triangles in the separate pane to indicate when the slope's direction changes from positive to negative or vice versa. Additionally, it plots a color-coded SMA on the main chart pane, allowing visual comparison of the slope to directional changes in a moving average.
When the rule is "Trade channel breakouts" or "Trade within the channel", the script draws the current period's linear regression channel on the main chart pane, and it plots bands representing the history of the channel values from the specified start time onward.
When the rule is "Trade within the channel", the script plots overbought and oversold zones between the bands based on a user-specified percentage of the channel range to indicate the value ranges where new trades are allowed.
Users can customize the strategy's calculations with the following additional inputs in the "Settings/Inputs" tab:
Start date : Sets the date and time when the strategy begins simulating trades. The script marks the specified point on the chart with a gray vertical line. The plots for rules 2 and 3 display the bands and trading zones from this point onward.
Period : Specifies the number of bars in the linear regression channel calculation. The default is 40.
Linreg source : Specifies the source series from which to calculate the linear regression values. The default is "close".
Range source : Specifies whether the script uses the distances from the linear regression line to closing prices or high and low prices to determine the channel's upper and lower ranges for rules 2 and 3. The default is "close".
Zone % : The percentage of the channel's overall range to use for trading zones with rule 3. The default is 20, meaning the width of the upper and lower zones is 20% of the range.
SL% : If the checkbox is selected, the strategy adds a stop-loss to each trade at the specified percentage distance away from the closing price where the entry order occurs. The checkbox is deselected by default, and the default percentage value is 5.
Position sizing : Determines whether the strategy uses Kaufman's predefined trade sizes ("Auto") or allows user-defined sizes from the "Settings/Properties" tab ("Manual"). The default is "Auto".
Long trades only : If selected, the strategy does not allow short positions. It is deselected by default.
Trend filter : If selected, the strategy filters positions for rule 3 based on the linear regression slope, allowing long positions only when the slope is positive and short positions only when the slope is negative. It is deselected by default.
NOTE: Because of this strategy's trading rules, the simulated results for a specific symbol or channel configuration might have significantly fewer than 100 trades. For meaningful results, we recommend adjusting the start date and other parameters to achieve a reasonable number of closed trades for analysis.
Additionally, this strategy does not specify commission and slippage amounts by default, because these values can vary across market types. Therefore, we recommend setting realistic values for these properties in the "Cost simulation" section of the "Settings/Properties" tab.

CAPM Alpha & BetaThe CAPM Alpha & Beta indicator is a crucial tool in finance and investment analysis derived from the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) . It provides insights into an asset's risk-adjusted performance (Alpha) and its relationship to broader market movements (Beta). Here’s a breakdown:
1. How Does It Work?
Alpha:
Definition: Alpha measures the portion of an investment's return that is not explained by market movements, i.e., the excess return over and above what the market is expected to deliver.
Purpose: It represents the value a fund manager or strategy adds (or subtracts) from an investment’s performance, adjusting for market risk.
Calculation:
Alpha is derived from comparing actual returns to expected returns predicted by CAPM:
Alpha = Actual Return − (Risk-Free Rate + β × (Market Return − Risk-Free Rate))
Alpha = Actual Return − (Risk-Free Rate + β × (Market Return − Risk-Free Rate))
Interpretation:
Positive Alpha: The investment outperformed its CAPM prediction (good performance for additional value/risk).
Negative Alpha: The investment underperformed its CAPM prediction.
Beta:
Definition: Beta measures the sensitivity of an asset's returns relative to the overall market's returns. It quantifies systematic risk.
Purpose: Indicates how volatile or correlated an investment is relative to the market benchmark (e.g., S&P 500).
Calculation:
Beta is computed as the ratio of the covariance of the asset and market returns to the variance of the market returns:
β = Covariance (Asset Return, Market Return) / Variance (Market Return)
β = Variance (Market Return) Covariance (Asset Return, Market Return)
Interpretation:
Beta = 1: The asset’s price moves in line with the market.
Beta > 1: The asset is more volatile than the market (higher risk/higher potential reward).
Beta < 1: The asset is less volatile than the market (lower risk/lower reward).
Beta < 0: The asset moves inversely to the market.
2. How to Use It?
Using Alpha:
Portfolio Evaluation: Investors use Alpha to gauge whether a portfolio manager or a strategy has successfully outperformed the market on a risk-adjusted basis.
If Alpha is consistently positive, the portfolio may deliver higher-than-expected returns for the given level of risk.
Stock/Asset Selection: Compare Alpha across multiple securities. Positive Alpha signals that the asset may be a good addition to your portfolio for excess returns.
Adjusting Investment Strategy: If Alpha is negative, reassess the asset's role in the portfolio and refine strategies.
Using Beta:
Risk Management:
A high Beta (e.g., 1.5) indicates higher sensitivity to market movements. Use such assets if you want to take on more risk during bullish market phases or expect higher returns.
A low Beta (e.g., 0.7) indicates stability and is useful in diversifying risk in volatile or bearish markets.
Portfolio Diversification: Combine assets with varying Betas to achieve the desired level of market responsiveness and smooth out portfolio volatility.
Monitoring Systematic Risk: Beta helps identify whether an investment aligns with your risk tolerance. For example, high-Beta stocks may not be suitable for conservative investors.
Practical Application:
Use both Alpha and Beta together:
Assess performance with Alpha (excess returns).
Assess risk exposure with Beta (market sensitivity).
Example: A stock with a Beta of 1.2 and a highly positive Alpha might suggest a solid performer that is slightly more volatile than the market, making it a suitable pick for risk-tolerant, return-maximizing investors.
In conclusion, the CAPM Alpha & Beta indicator gives a comprehensive view of an asset's performance and risk. Alpha enables performance evaluation on a risk-adjusted basis, while Beta reveals the level of market risk. Together, they help investors make informed decisions, build optimal portfolios, and align investments with their risk-return preferences.
Simple APF Strategy Backtesting [The Quant Science]Simple backtesting strategy for the quantitative indicator Autocorrelation Price Forecasting. This is a Buy & Sell strategy that operates exclusively with long orders. It opens long positions and generates profit based on the future price forecast provided by the indicator. It's particularly suitable for trend-following trading strategies or directional markets with an established trend.
Main functions
1. Cycle Detection: Utilize autocorrelation to identify repetitive market behaviors and cycles.
2. Forecasting for Backtesting: Simulate trades and assess the profitability of various strategies based on future price predictions.
Logic
The strategy works as follow:
Entry Condition: Go long if the hypothetical gain exceeds the threshold gain (configurable by user interface).
Position Management: Sets a take-profit level based on the future price.
Position Sizing: Automatically calculates the order size as a percentage of the equity.
No Stop-Loss: this strategy doesn't includes any stop loss.
Example Use Case
A trader analyzes a dayli period using 7 historical bars for autocorrelation.
Sets a threshold gain of 20 points using a 5% of the equity for each trade.
Evaluates the effectiveness of a long-only strategy in this period to assess its profitability and risk-adjusted performance.
User Interface
Length: Set the length of the data used in the autocorrelation price forecasting model.
Thresold Gain: Minimum value to be considered for opening trades based on future price forecast.
Order Size: percentage size of the equity used for each single trade.
Strategy Limit
This strategy does not use a stop loss. If the price continues to drop and the future price forecast is incorrect, the trader may incur a loss or have their capital locked in the losing trade.
