Specter Trend Cloud [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Specter Trend Cloud is a flexible moving-average–based trend tool that builds a colored “cloud” around market direction and highlights key retest opportunities. Using two adaptive MAs (short vs. long), offset by ATR for volatility adjustment, it shades the background with a gradient cloud that switches color on trend flips. When price pulls back to retest the short MA during an active trend, the script plots diamond markers and extends dotted levels from that retest price. If price later breaks through that level, the extension is terminated—giving traders a clean visual of valid vs. invalid retests.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Multi-MA Core Engine:
Choose from SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, or VWMA as the base. The indicator tracks both a short-term MA (Length) and a longer twin (2 × Length).
Volatility-Adjusted Offset:
Both MAs are shifted by ATR(200) depending on trend direction—pulling them down in uptrends, up in downtrends—so the cloud reflects realistic breathing room instead of razor-thin bands.
Gradient Trend Cloud:
Between the two shifted MAs, the script fills a shaded region:
• Aqua cloud = bullish trend
• Orange cloud = bearish trend
Gradient intensity increases toward the active edge, providing a visual sense of strength.
Trend Flip Logic:
A flip occurs whenever the short MA crosses above or below the long MA. The cloud instantly changes color and begins tracking the new regime.
Retest Detection:
During an ongoing trend (no flip), if price retests the short MA within a 5-bar “cooldown,” the tool:
• Marks the retest with diamond shapes below/above the bar.
• Draws a dotted horizontal line from the retest price, extending into the future.
Automatic Level Termination:
If price later closes through that dotted level, the line disappears—keeping only active, respected retest levels on your chart.
⯁ HOW IT WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
MA Calculations:
ma1 = MA(src, Length), ma2 = MA(src, 2 × Length).
Trend = ma1 > ma2 (bull) or ma1 < ma2 (bear).
ATR shift offsets both ma1 and ma2 by ±ATR depending on trend.
Cloud Fill:
Plots ma1 and ma2 (invisible for long MA). Uses fill() with semi-transparent aqua/orange gradient between the two.
Retest Logic:
• Bullish retest: ta.crossover(low, ma1) while trend = bull.
• Bearish retest: ta.crossunder(high, ma1) while trend = bear.
Only valid if at least 5 bars have passed since last retest.
When triggered, it stores bar index and price, draws diamonds, and extends a dotted line.
Level Clearing:
If current high > retest upper line (bearish case) or low < retest lower line (bullish case), that line is deleted (stops extending).
⯁ USAGE
Use the cloud color as the higher-level trend bias (aqua = long, orange = short).
Look for diamonds + dotted lines as pullback/retest zones where trend continuation may launch.
If a retest level holds and price rebounds, it strengthens confidence in the trend.
If a retest level is broken, treat it as a warning of weakening trend or possible reversal.
Experiment with MA Type (SMA vs. EMA, etc.) to align sensitivity with your asset or timeframe.
Adjust Length for faster flips on low timeframes or smoother signals on higher ones.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Specter Trend Cloud combines trend detection, volatility-adjusted shading, and retest visualization into a single tool. The gradient cloud provides instant clarity on direction, while diamonds and dotted retest levels give you tactical entry/retest zones that self-clean when invalidated. It’s a versatile trend-following and confirmation layer, adaptable across multiple assets and styles.

Mean Reversion Probability Zones [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Mean Reversion Probability Zones indicator measures the likelihood of price reverting back toward its mean . By analyzing oscillator dynamics (RSI, MFI, or Stochastic), it calculates probability zones both above and below the oscillator. These zones are visualized as histograms, colored regions on the main chart, and a compact dashboard, helping traders spot when the market is statistically stretched and more likely to revert.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Mean Reversion : The tendency of price to return to its average after significant extensions.
Oscillator-Based Analysis : Uses RSI, MFI, or Stochastic as the base signal for detecting overextension.
Probability Model : The probability of reversion is computed using three factors:
Whether the oscillator is rising or declining.
Whether the oscillator is above or below user-defined thresholds.
The oscillator’s actual value (distance from equilibrium).
Dual-Zone Output :
Upper histogram = probability of downward mean reversion.
Lower histogram = probability of upward mean reversion.
Historical Extremes : The dashboard highlights the recent maximum probability values for both upward and downward scenarios.
🔵 FEATURES
Oscillator Choice : Switch between RSI, MFI, and Stochastic.
Customizable Zones : User-defined upper/lower thresholds with independent colors.
Probability Histograms :
Above oscillator → down reversion probability.
Below oscillator → up reversion probability.
Colored Gradient Zones on Chart : Visual overlays showing where mean reversion probabilities are strongest.
Probability Labels : Percentages displayed next to histogram values for clarity.
Dashboard : Compact table in the corner showing the recent maximum probabilities for both upward and downward mean reversion.
Overlay Compatibility : Works in both chart pane and sub-pane with oscillators.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Set Oscillator : Choose RSI, MFI, or Stochastic depending on your strategy style.
Adjust Zones : Define upper/lower bounds for when oscillator values indicate strong overbought/oversold conditions.
Interpret Histograms :
Orange (upper) histogram → higher chance of a pullback/downward mean reversion.
Green (lower) histogram → higher chance of upward reversion/bounce.
Watch Gradient Zones : On the main chart, shaded areas highlight where probability of mean reversion is elevated.
Consult Dashboard : Use the “Recent MAX” values to understand how strong recent reversion probabilities have been in either direction.
Confluence Strategy : Combine with support/resistance, order flow, or trend filters to avoid counter-trend trades.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Mean Reversion Probability Zones provides traders with an advanced way to quantify and visualize mean reversion opportunities. By blending oscillator momentum, threshold logic, and probability calculations, it highlights when markets are statistically stretched and primed for reversal. Whether you are a contrarian trader or simply looking for exhaustion signals to fade, this tool helps bring structure and clarity to mean reversion setups.
SMC BOS - Structure Breaks & Median Continuation ProjectionsThis tool shows what usually happens after a Break of Structure (BOS).
It scans past BOS events on your chart, finds the ones most similar to the latest break (using ATR to filter by volatility), and then plots the median continuation path.
Optional percentile bands (P10–P90) display the possible range of outcomes around the median.
Key features:
• Automatic detection of bullish and bearish BOS events
• Library of past BOS with adjustable size and spacing
• ATR-based similarity and recency weighting
• Median continuation projections with optional percentile bands
• Customizable colors, signals, and stats table
• Works on any market and timeframe
Use cases:
• See how price typically behaves after a BOS
• Support SMC analysis with data-driven projections
• Improve trade planning by visualizing likely continuations
• Apply across crypto, forex, stocks, and futures
Originality:
Instead of only marking BOS, this script learns from history and projects forward the median path of the most similar past cases, adjusted for volatility. It turns BOS signals into practical continuation scenarios.
Instructions:
Add the indicator to your chart. When a BOS is detected, the projection is drawn automatically.
Use the settings to adjust the library, ATR weighting, projection style, percentile bands, and the display of signals or stats.

EMA50 + SR Boxes + VP Right + ATR + SL% + Entries + SentimentThis indicator combines several pro-grade building blocks to read the market at a glance:
EMA50 as a trend filter.
Smart Support/Resistance zones (rectangles) detected where price has touched multiple times.
“U / Inverted U” markers (confirmed pivots).
Optional Buy/Sell signals: only when a U appears inside a support zone with price above the EMA50 (buy), or an inverted U inside a resistance zone with price below the EMA50 (sell).
Simplified right-side Volume Profile (with a special Forex fallback if volume isn’t usable).
ATR & SL%: displays current ATR and an SL% based on ATR(100) Daily / Close × 100, attached to the latest candle.
INFLECTION NEXUS - Shadow Portfolio AdaptiveINFLECTION NEXUS - SPA (Shadow Portfolio Adaptive)
Foreword: The Living Algorithm
For decades, technical analysis has been a conversation between a trader and a static chart. We draw our lines, we apply our indicators with their fixed-length inputs, and we hope that our rigid tools can somehow capture the essence of a market that is fluid, chaotic, and perpetually evolving. When our tools fail, we are told to "adapt." But what if the tools themselves could learn that lesson? What if our indicators could adapt not just for us, but with us?
This script, INFLECTION NEXUS - SPA, is the first step in that direction. It is an experimental framework, a research project shared publicly, built around a radical new core: the Shadow Portfolio Adaptive (SPA) Engine . Let's be clear from the outset: the signal logic you see—the buy and sell labels—is a refined version from my previous work, "Turning Point." The signals are not the star of this show. This entire publication is a showcase of the groundbreaking, self-learning engine that now powers them.
You will likely feel that this system is overwhelmingly complex when you first load it. That is by design. This is not another simple crossover indicator. This is a look under the hood of a system designed to emulate the perpetual learning cycle of a human mind. My goal with this document is to break down every single component, every color, every number, into simple, understandable pieces. We will go through this step-by-step, so that by the end, you will not only understand how it works, but you will appreciate the depth of the analysis it performs on your behalf.
This is a beta release. Not all planned features are fully functional, and I will be updating it as the research continues. But the core engine is here, and it represents a new paradigm. Prepare to engage with a script that doesn't just analyze the market—it actively seeks to understand it.
Chapter 1: The Paradigm Shift - Why the SPA Engine is a Leap Forward
To grasp the innovation here, we must first deconstruct the old way of thinking about "adaptive" indicators.
Part A: The Traditional Model - Driving by the Rear-View Mirror
Imagine a self-driving car that can only make adjustments after it has already completed a trip. This is, in essence, how most "adaptive" trading systems work. Their process is fundamentally reactive and inefficient:
Wait for a Signal: The system is idle until its specific, hard-coded logic (e.g., a moving average crossover) generates a buy or sell signal.
Wait for an Outcome: It then waits for that entire trade to play out and close, resulting in a win or a loss.
Collect Limited Data: It only learns from the performance of its own signals. If the market is moving but not generating signals, the system is blind and learns nothing.
Require a Massive Sample Size: To avoid making changes based on random luck, it must wait for a huge number of trades—often 50, 100, or even more—before it has a statistically significant sample of wins and losses.
Make a Belated Adjustment: Finally, after this long "warm-up" period, it will make a tiny, retrospective adjustment to its parameters.
The fatal flaw is obvious: this model is always adapting to a market that no longer exists. It is slow, data-starved, and hopelessly biased by its own signal logic.
Part B: The SPA Model - The Proactive Co-Pilot
The Shadow Portfolio Adaptive (SPA) engine is a complete re-imagining of this process. It is not a reactive historian; it is a proactive, ever-present co-pilot, constantly learning and recalibrating.
It Never Waits: The SPA engine does not wait for a signal to learn. From the moment you load it on the chart, its Shadow Portfolio begins running constant, 5-bar long and short trades in the background. It is not testing a "signal"; it is testing the very fabric of the market, bar by bar.
It is Data-Saturated: Because it learns from every 5-bar slice of price action, the SPA engine gathers a colossal amount of unbiased data. While a traditional system might learn from one trade every 50 bars, the SPA engine learns from a long and a short trade every single bar after its initial cycle.
Instantaneous Market Awareness - The End of the "Warm-Up": This is the core innovation. A traditional adaptive system is effectively useless for the first 50-100 trades. The SPA engine's warm-up period is exactly five bars . On the 6th bar of the chart, the first shadow trade closes, a data point is generated, and the learning process begins. From the 6th bar onward, the engine is market-aware and capable of making intelligent adjustments. The SPA engine isn't adapting to old wins and losses. It is adapting, in near real-time, to the market's ever-shifting character, volatility, and personality.
Chapter 2: The Anatomy of the SPA Engine - A Toddler's Guide to a Complex Brain
The engine is composed of three primary systems that work in a beautiful, interconnected symphony. Let's break them down.
Section 1: The Shadow Portfolio (The Information Harvester)
What it is, Simply: Think of this as the script's eyes and ears. It's a team of 10 virtual traders (5 long, 5 short) who are constantly taking small, quick trades to feel out the market.
How it Works, Simply: On every new bar, a new "long" trader and a new "short" trader enter the market. Exactly 5 bars later, they close their positions. This cycle is perpetual and relentless.
The Critical 'Why': Because these virtual traders enter and exit based on a fixed time (5 bars), not on a "good" or "bad" signal, their results are completely unbiased . They are simply measuring: "What happened to price over the last 5 bars?" This provides the raw, untainted truth about the market's behavior that the rest of the system needs to learn effectively.
The Golden Metric (ATR Normalization): The engine doesn't just look at dollar P&L. It's smarter than that. It asks a more intelligent question: "How much did this trade make relative to the current volatility?"
Analogy: Imagine a flea and an elephant. If they both jump 1 inch, who is more impressive? The flea. The SPA engine understands this. A $10 profit when the market is dead quiet is far more significant than a $10 profit during a wild, volatile swing.
The Formula: realized_atr = (close - trade.entry) / trade.atr_entry. It takes the raw profit and divides it by the Average True Range (a measure of volatility) at the moment of entry. This gives a pure, "apples-to-apples" score for every single trade, which is the foundational data point for all learning.
Section 2: The Cognitive Map (The Long-Term Brain)
What it is, Simply: This is the engine's deep memory, its library of experiences. Imagine a giant, 64-square chessboard (8x8 grid). Each square on the board represents a very specific type of market environment.
The Two Dimensions of Thought (The 'How'): How does it know which square we are on? It looks at two things:
The Market's Personality (X-Axis): Is the market behaving like a disciplined soldier, marching in a clear trend? Or is it like a chaotic, unpredictable child, running all over the place? The engine calculates a "Regime" score to figure this out.
The Market's Energy Level (Y-Axis): Is the market sleepy and quiet, or is it wide-awake and hyperactive? The engine measures "Normalized Volatility" to determine this.
The Power of Generalization (The 'Why'): When a Shadow Portfolio trade closes, its result is recorded in the corresponding square on the chessboard. But here's the clever part: it also shares a little bit of that lesson with the squares immediately next to it (using a Gaussian Kernel).
Analogy: If you touch a hot stove and learn "don't touch," your brain is smart enough to know you probably shouldn't touch the hot oven door next to it either, even if you haven't touched it directly. The Cognitive Map does the same thing, allowing it to make intelligent inferences even in market conditions it has seen less frequently. Each square remembers what indicator settings worked best in that specific environment.
Section 3: The Adaptive Engine (The Central Nervous System)
What it is, Simply: This is the conductor of the orchestra. It takes information from all other parts of the system and decides exactly what to do.
The Symphony of Inputs: It listens to three distinct sources of information before making a decision:
The Short-Term Memory (Rolling Stats): It looks at the performance of the last rollN shadow trades. This is its immediate, recent experience.
The Long-Term Wisdom (Cognitive Map): It consults the grand library of the Cognitive Map to see what has worked best in the current market type over the long haul.
The Gut Instinct (Bin Learning): It keeps a small "mini-batch" of the most recent trades. If this batch shows a very strong, sudden pattern, it can trigger a rapid, reflexive adjustment, like pulling your hand away from a flame.
The Fusion Process: It then blends these three opinions together in a sophisticated way. It gives more weight to the opinions it's more confident in (e.g., a Cognitive Map square with hundreds of trades of experience) and uses your Adaptation Intensity (dialK) input to decide how much to listen to its "gut instinct." The final decision is then smoothed to ensure the indicator's parameters change in a stable, intelligent way.
Chapter 3: The Control Panel - A Granular Guide to the Inputs
Every input is a lever to tune the engine. Let's demystify them.
🧾 Signal Engine (Original): These inputs control the "Turning Point" signal logic.
What they are: Toggles for Reversal Mode (catch tops/bottoms) and Breakout Mode (follow the trend), plus filters like Require New Extreme to ensure signals come from points of extension.
How to use them: For a ranging market, you might favor Reversal mode. For a strongly trending market, Breakout mode might be better. These settings fine-tune the final alert, which is powered by the adaptive engine.
🎛️ Master Control:
Adaptation Intensity (dialK): THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT INPUT. It controls the personality of the learning engine.
Low Setting (1-5): Creates a "Wise Old Professor" engine. It's patient, learns from larger batches of data, and makes slow, deliberate, and highly confident adjustments. Use this for stable assets like indices or blue-chip stocks.
High Setting (15-20): Creates a "Hyper-Reactive Day Trader" engine. It learns from tiny samples, trusts its gut instinct, and makes large, aggressive adjustments to keep up with a frantic market. Use this for highly volatile assets like crypto or meme stocks.
🧠 Adaptive Engine & 🎯 Learning:
What they are: The deep mechanics of the learning process. Base Learn Rate is the fundamental step size of adjustments. Rolling Window Size is the length of its "short-term memory." Adaptation Momentum controls how smoothly the parameters transition to their new learned values.
How to use them: For most users, the defaults are well-balanced. Advanced users can tweak these to make the engine even more or less sensitive to new information.
🗺️ Cognitive Map, STM & Checkpoints:
What they are: Controls for the engine's brain. Enable Cognitive Map turns on the long-term memory.
The Checkpoint System - Your "Save Game" Feature: This is incredibly powerful.
To Save: Toggle Emit Checkpoint Now. Go to your alert log, and you will see a very long string of text. Copy this entire string.
To Load: Paste that string into the Memory Checkpoint input box. Toggle Apply Checkpoint On Next Bar. The script will instantly load its entire "brain"—every learned parameter and all 64 cells of the Cognitive Map. You can train the engine on one chart and transfer its intelligence to another.
Chapter 4: The Command Center - Decoding the Dashboard
This is your window into the engine's mind. Do not be intimidated. Let's break it down.
PANEL A (INFLECTION NEXUS): The high-level overview.
Market Context: See how the engine classifies the market's Trend and Regime (personality).
Shadow Portfolio Summary: The engine's report card. Watch the Win Rate and Avg P&L to see the quality of the raw data it's learning from.
PANEL B (SHADOW PORTFOLIO ADAPTIVE): The deep diagnostics.
Performance Metrics: Advanced stats like Sharpe Ratio (return vs. risk) and Sortino Ratio (return vs. downside risk). This tells you about the quality and consistency of the market movements the engine is analyzing.
Adaptive Parameters (Live vs Base): THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT SECTION. It shows the engine's Live parameters right next to your (Base) inputs.
How to interpret it: If you see the Live ATR Len is 45 while your Base input is 20, the engine is telling you: "The market is in a long, smooth trend right now. Short-term noise is a trap. I have learned that we must use a longer-term perspective to see clearly." This section translates the engine's learning directly into actionable insight.
Memory Log: A live ticker of the engine's thoughts, showing every trade it learns from and every adaptation it makes.
Chapter 5: Reading the Canvas - On-Chart Visuals
The Bands (Green/Blue Lines): These are not static Supertrend lines. They are the
physical manifestation of the engine's current thinking. As the engine learns and adapts its ATR Period and Multiplier, you will see these bands widen, tighten, and adjust their distance from price. They are alive.
The Labels (BUY/SELL): These are the final output of the "Turning Point" logic, now supercharged and informed by the fully adaptive SPA engine.
The Purple Pulse (Dot and Background Glow): This is your visual cue that the engine is "thinking." Every time you see this pulse, it means the SPA has just completed a learning cycle and updated its parameters. It is actively recalibrating itself to the market.
Chapter 6: A Personal Manifesto on Innovation
I want to conclude with a personal note on why I dedicate countless hours to building systems like this and sharing them openly.
My purpose is to drive innovation, period. I am not in this space to follow the crowd or to re-package old ideas. The world does not need a 100th version of a slightly modified MACD. Real progress comes from venturing into the wilderness, from asking difficult questions, and from pursuing concepts that lie at the very edge of possibility.
I am not afraid of being wrong. I am not afraid of being bested by my peers. In fact, I welcome it. If another developer takes an idea from this engine, improves it, and builds something even more magnificent, that is a profound win for our entire community. The only failure I recognize is the failure to try. The only trap I fear is the creative complacency of producing sterile, recycled work just to appease the status quo.
I love this community, and I believe with every fiber of my being that we have barely scratched the surface of what can be discovered and created. This script is my contribution to that shared journey. It is a tool, an idea, and a challenge to all of us: let's keep pushing.
DISCLAIMER: This script is an experimental framework provided for educational and research purposes ONLY. It is not financial advice. All trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Please use this tool responsibly and as part of a comprehensive trading plan.
As the great computer scientist Herbert A. Simon, a pioneer of artificial intelligence, famously said:
"Learning is any process by which a system improves performance from experience."
May this engine enhance your experience.

Entry Signals (Long/Short)The indicator visualizes precise entry signals for long and short setups directly on the price chart. Long is marked with a green triangle-up, short with a red triangle-down. To contextualize trend structure, the Fast EMA (5) is plotted in black and the Slow EMA (20) in blue (line width 1). Signals print only at bar close for reproducible execution. Applicable across all timeframes—ideal for top-down analysis from the 195-minute chart through daily to weekly.
Dynamic Stop Loss Optimizer [BackQuant]Dynamic Stop Loss Optimizer
Overview
Stop placement decides expectancy. This tool gives you three professional-grade, adaptive stop engines, ATR, Volatility, and Hybrid. So your exits scale with current conditions instead of guessing fixed ticks. It trails intelligently, redraws as the market evolves, and annotates the chart with clean labels/lines and a compact stats table. Pick the engine that fits the trade, or switch on the fly.
What it does
Calculates three adaptive stops in real time (ATR-based, Volatility-based, and Hybrid) and keeps them trailed as price makes progress.
Shows exactly where your risk lives with on-chart levels, color-coded markers (long/short), and precise “Risk %” labels at the current bar.
Surfaces context you actually use - current ATR, daily volatility, selected method, and the live stop level—in a tidy, movable table.
Fires alerts on stop hits so you can automate exits or journal outcomes without staring at the screen.
Why it matters
Adaptive risk control: Stops expand in fast tape and tighten in quiet tape. You’re not punished for volatility; you’re aligned with it.
Consistency across assets: The same playbook works whether you’re trading indexes, FX, crypto, or equities, because the engine normalizes to each symbol’s behavior.
Cleaner decision-making: One chart shows your entry idea and its invalidation in the same breath. If price trespasses, you know it instantly.
The three methods (choose your engine)
1) ATR Based “Structure-aware” distance
This classic approach keys off Average True Range to set a stop just beyond typical bar-to-bar excursion. It adapts smoothly to changing ranges and respects swing structure.
Use when: you want a steady, intuitive buffer that tracks trend legs without hugging price.
See it in action:
2) Volatility Based “Behavior-aware” distance
This engine derives stop distance from current return volatility (annualized, then scaled back down to the session). It reacts to regime shifts quickly and normalizes risk across symbols with very different prices.
Use when: you want the stop to breathe with realized volatility and respond faster to heat-ups/cool-downs.
See it in action:
3) Hybrid “Best of both worlds”
The Hybrid blends the ATR and Volatility distances into one consensus level, then trails it intelligently. You get the structural common sense of ATR and the regime sensitivity of Vol.
Use when: you want robust, all-weather behavior without micromanaging inputs.
See it in action:
How it trails
Longs: The stop ratchets up with favorable movement and holds its ground on shallow pullbacks. If price closes back into the risk zone, the level refreshes to the newest valid distance.
Shorts: Mirror logic ratchets down with trend, resists noise, and refreshes if price reclaims the zone.
Hybrid trailing: Uses the blended distance and the same “no give-backs” principle to keep gains protected as structure builds.
Reading the chart
Markers: Circles = ATR stops, Crosses = Vol stops, Diamonds = Hybrid. Colors indicate long (red level under price) vs short (green level above price).
Lines: The latest active stop is extended with a dashed line so you can see it at a glance.
Labels: “Long SL / Short SL” shows the exact price and current risk % from the last close no math required.
Table: ATR value, Daily Vol %, your chosen Method, the Current SL, and Risk %—all in one compact block that you can pin top-left/right/center.
Quick workflow
Define the idea: Long or Short, and which engine fits the tape (ATR, Vol, or Hybrid).
Place and trail: Let the optimizer print the level; trail automatically as the move develops.
Manage outcomes: If the line is tagged, you’re out clean. If it holds, you’ve contained heat while giving the trade room to work.
Inputs you’ll actually touch
Calculation Settings
ATR Length / Multiplier: Controls the “structural” cushion.
Volatility Length / Multiplier: Controls the “behavioral” cushion.
Trading Days: 252 or 365 to keep the volatility math aligned with the asset’s trading calendar.
Stop Loss Method
ATR Based | Volatility Based | Hybrid : Switch engines instantly to fit the trade.
Position Type
Long | Short | Both : Show only what you need for the current strategy.
Visual Settings
Show ATR / Vol / Hybrid Stops: Toggle families on/off.
Show Labels: Print price + Risk % at the live stop.
Table Position: Park the metrics where you like.
Coloring
Long/Short/Hybrid colors: Set a palette that matches your theme and stands out on your background.
Practical patterns to watch
Trend-pullback continuation: The stop ratchets behind higher lows (long) or lower highs (short). If price tests the level and rejects, that’s your risk-defined continuation cue.
Break-and-run: After a clean break, the Hybrid will usually sit slightly wider than pure Vol, use it to avoid getting shaken on the first retest.
Range compression: When the ATR and Vol distances converge, the table will show small Risk %. That’s your green light to size up with the same dollar risk, or keep it conservative if you expect expansion.
Alerts
Long Stop Loss Hit : Notifies when price crosses below the live long stop.
Short Stop Loss Hit : Notifies when price crosses above the live short stop.
Why this feels “set-and-serious”
You get a single look that answers three questions in real time: “Where’s my line in the sand?”, “How much heat am I taking right now?”, and “Is this distance appropriate for current conditions?” With ATR, Vol, and Hybrid in one tool, you can run the exact same playbook across symbols and regimes while keeping your chart clean and your risk explicit.
ARO Pro — Adaptive Regime OscillatorARO Pro — Adaptive Regime Oscillator (v6)
ARO Pro turns your chart into a context-aware decision system. It classifies every bar as Trending (up or down) or Ranging in real time, then switches its math to match the regime: trend strength is measured with an ATR-normalized EMA spread, while range behavior is tracked with a center-based RSI oscillator. The result is cleaner entries, fewer false signals, and faster reads on regime shifts—without repainting.
⸻
How it works (under the hood)
1. Regime Detection (Kaufman ER):
ARO computes Kaufman’s Efficiency Ratio (ER) over a user-defined length.
- ER > threshold → Trending (direction from EMA fast vs. EMA slow)
- ER ≤ threshold → Ranging
2. Adaptive Oscillator Core:
- Trend mode: (EMA(fast) − EMA(slow)) / ATR * 100 → momentum normalized by volatility.
- Range mode: RSI(length) − 50 → mean-reversion pressure around zero.
3. Volatility Filter (optional):
Blocks signals if ATR as % of price is below a floor you set. This reduces noise in thin or quiet markets.
4. MTF Trend Filter (optional & non-repainting):
Confirms signals only if a higher timeframe EMA(fast) > EMA(slow) for longs (or < for shorts). Implemented with lookahead_off and gaps_on.
5. Confirmation & Alerts:
Signals are locked only on bar close (barstate.isconfirmed) and offered via three alert types: ARO Long, ARO Short, ARO Regime Shift.
⸻
What you see on the chart
• Background heat:
• Green = Trending Up, Red = Trending Down, Gray = Range.
• ARO line (panel): Adaptive oscillator (trend/value colors).
• Signal markers: ▲ Long / ▼ Short on confirmed bars.
• Guide lines: Upper/Lower thresholds (±K) and zero line.
• Info Panel (table): Regime, ER, ATR %, ARO, HTF status (OK/BLOCK/OFF), and a Confidence light.
• Debug Overlay (optional): Quick view of thresholds and raw conditions for tuning.
⸻
Inputs (quick reference)
• Signals: Fast/Slow EMA, RSI length, ER length & threshold, oscillator smoothing, signal threshold.
• Filters: ATR length, minimum ATR% (volatility floor), toggle for volatility filter.
• Visuals: Background on/off, Info Panel on/off, Debug overlay on/off.
• MTF (safe): Toggle + HTF timeframe (e.g., 240, D, W).
⸻
Interpreting signals
• Long: Trend regime AND fast EMA > slow EMA AND ARO ≥ +threshold (confirmed bar, filters passing).
• Short: Trend regime AND fast EMA < slow EMA AND ARO ≤ −threshold (confirmed bar, filters passing).
• Regime Shift: Alert when ER moves the market from Range → Trend or flips trend direction.
⸻
Practical use cases & examples
1) Intraday momentum alignment (scalps to day trades)
• Timeframes: 5–15m with HTF filter = 4H.
• Flow:
1. Wait for Trend Up background + HTF OK.
2. Enter on ▲ Long when ARO crosses above +threshold.
3. Stops: 1–1.5× ATR(14) below trigger bar or below last micro swing.
4. Exits: Partial at 1× ATR, trail remainder with an ATR stop or when ARO reverts to zero/Regime Shift.
• Why it works: You’re trading with the dominant higher-timeframe structure while avoiding low-volatility fakeouts.
2) Swing trend following (cleaner trend legs)
• Timeframes: 1H–4H with HTF filter = 1D.
• Flow:
1. Only act in Trend background aligned with HTF.
2. Add on subsequent ▲ signals as ARO maintains positive (or negative) territory.
3. Reduce or exit on Regime Shift (Trend → Range or direction flip) or when ARO crosses back through zero.
• Stops/targets: Initial 1.5–2× ATR; move to breakeven once the trade gains 1× ATR; trail with a multiple-ATR or structure lows/highs.
3) Range tactics (fade the extremes)
• Timeframes: 15m–1H or 1D on mean-reverting names.
• Flow:
1. Act only when background = Range.
2. Fade moves when ARO swings from ±extremes back toward zero near well-defined S/R.
3. Exit at the opposite band or zero line; abort if a Regime Shift to Trend occurs.
• Tip: Increase ER threshold (e.g., 0.35–0.40) to label more bars as Range on choppy instruments.
4) Event days & macro filters
• Approach: Raise the volatility floor (Min ATR%) on macro days (FOMC, CPI).
• Effect: You’ll ignore “fake” micro swings in the minutes leading up to releases and catch only post-event confirmed momentum.
⸻
Parameter tuning guide
• ER Threshold:
• Lower (0.20–0.30) = more Trend bars, more signals, higher noise.
• Higher (0.35–0.45) = stricter trend confirmation, fewer but cleaner signals.
• Signal Threshold (±K):
• Raise to reduce whipsaws; lower for earlier but noisier triggers.
• Volatility Floor (ATR%):
• Thin/quiet assets benefit from a higher floor (e.g., 0.3–0.6).
• Highly liquid futures/forex can work with lower floors.
• HTF Filter:
• Keep it ON when you want higher win consistency; turn OFF for tactical counter-trend plays.
⸻
Alerts (recommended setup)
• “ARO Long” / “ARO Short”: Entry-style alerts on confirmed signals.
• “ARO Regime Shift”: Context alert to scale in/out or switch playbooks (trend vs. range).
All alerts are non-repainting and fire only when the bar closes.
⸻
Best practices & combinations
• Price action & S/R: Use ARO to define when to engage, and price structure to define where (breakout levels, pullback zones).
• VWAP/Session tools: In intraday trends, ▲ signals above VWAP tend to carry; avoid shorts below session VWAP in strong downtrends.
• Risk first: Size by ATR; never let a single ARO event override your max risk per trade.
• Portfolio filter: On indices/ETFs, enable HTF filter and a stricter ER threshold to ride regime legs.
⸻
Non-repaint and implementation notes
• The script does not repaint:
• Signals are computed and locked on bar close (barstate.isconfirmed).
• All higher-timeframe data uses request.security(..., lookahead_off, gaps_on).
• No future indexing or negative offsets are used.
• The Info Panel and Debug overlay are purely visual aids and do not change signal logic.
⸻
Limitations & tips
• Chop sensitivity: In hyper-choppy symbols, consider raising ER threshold and the signal threshold, and enable HTF filter.
• Instrument personality: EMAs/RSI lengths and volatility floor often need a quick 2–3 minute tune per asset class (FX vs. crypto vs. equities).
• No guarantees: ARO improves context and timing, but it is not a promise of profitability—always combine with risk management.
⸻
Quick start (TL;DR)
1. Timeframes: 5–15m intraday (HTF = 4H); 1H–4H swing (HTF = 1D).
2. Use defaults, then tune ER threshold (0.25–0.40) and Signal threshold (±20).
3. Enable Volatility Floor (e.g., 0.2–0.5 ATR%) on quiet assets.
4. Trade ▲ / ▼ only in matching Trend background; fade extremes only in Range background.
5. Set alerts for Long, Short, and Regime Shift; manage risk with ATR stops.
⸻
Author’s note: ARO Pro is designed to be clear, adaptive, and operational out of the box. If you publish variants (e.g., different ER logic, alternative trend cores), please credit the original and document any changes so users can compare behavior reliably.
$ - HTF Sweeps & PO3HTF Sweeps & PO3 Indicator
The HTF Sweeps & PO3 indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders to visualise higher timeframe (HTF) candles, identify liquidity sweeps, and track key price levels on a lower timeframe (LTF) chart. Built for TradingView using Pine Script v6, it overlays HTF candle data and highlights significant price movements, such as sweeps of previous highs or lows, to help traders identify potential liquidity sweep and reversal points. The indicator is highly customisable, offering a range of visual and alert options to suit various trading strategies.
Features
Higher Timeframe (HTF) Candle Visualisation:
- Displays up to three user-defined HTF candles (e.g., 15m, 1H, 4H) overlaid on the LTF chart.
- Customisable candle appearance with adjustable size (Tiny to Huge), offset, spacing, and colours for bullish/bearish candles and wicks.
- Option to show timeframe labels above or below HTF candles with configurable size and position.
Liquidity Sweep Detection:
- Identifies bullish and bearish sweeps when price moves beyond the high or low of a previous HTF candle and meets specific conditions.
- Displays sweeps on both LTF and HTF with customisable line styles (Solid, Dashed, Dotted), widths, and colours.
- Option to show only the most recent sweep per candle to reduce chart clutter.
Invalidated Sweep Tracking:
- Detects and visualises invalidated sweeps (when price moves past a sweep level in the opposite direction).
- Configurable display for invalidated sweeps on LTF and HTF with distinct line styles and colours.
Previous High/Low Lines:
- Plots horizontal lines at the high and low of the previous HTF candle, extending on both LTF and HTF.
- Customisable line style, width, and color for easy identification of key levels.
- Real-Time Sweep Detection:
-Optional real-time sweep visualisation for active candles, enabling traders to monitor developing price action.
Alert System:
- Triggers alerts for sweep formation (when a new sweep is detected).
- Triggers alerts for sweep invalidation (when a sweep is no longer valid).
- Alerts include details such as timeframe, ticker, and price level for precise notifications.
Performance Optimisation:
- Efficiently manages resources with configurable limits for lines, labels, boxes, and bars (up to 500 each).
- Cleans up outdated visual elements to maintain chart clarity.
Flexible Configuration:
- Supports multiple timeframes for HTF candles with user-defined settings for visibility and number of candles displayed (1–60).
- Toggle visibility for HTF candles, sweeps, invalidated sweeps, and high/low lines independently for LTF and HTF.
This indicator is ideal for traders focusing on liquidity hunting, order block analysis, or price action strategies, providing clear visual cues and alerts to enhance decision-making.
Sessions Highs & Lows with MTF Zones [AlgoRich] Sessions Highs & Lows with MTF Zones — Description for Publication
What it does
This indicator marks and works with intra-session extremes and repeating liquidity zones:
Three configurable sessions (Asia / London / NY) with user-defined hours and colors. It shades the background during each session in your time zone (default UTC-3).
Session High/Low: while a session is open, it continuously updates its High/Low; when the session closes, it places labels at the exact bars where those extremes occurred (using the session name).
Equal Highs / Equal Lows (EQH / EQL) detection based on pivots and an ATR tolerance threshold. When two highs (or lows) are detected as “nearly equal,” it draws a line between them and tags EQH/EQL, highlighting potential liquidity/reaction areas.
How it works (under the hood)
The internal function f_sesion() checks whether a bar belongs to a session, whether it’s the start or end, and stores the session hi/lo and their bar_index. When the session ends, it creates the high/low labels.
Pivots are computed with ta.pivothigh / ta.pivotlow using pivotLength.
“Equality” between two extremes is decided by:
|Extreme1 − Extreme2| ≤ ATR(confluenceAtrLength) × threshold.
If Wait For Confirmation is enabled, the pivot must be fully formed (fewer signals, more robust). If disabled, it confirms with only 1 bar to the right (faster, more sensitive).
Parameters
General
UTC Zone: string like UTC-3 to evaluate session times correctly.
Session 1 / 2 / 3
Session name (e.g., Asia, London, NY).
Hours (format HHMM-HHMM, 24h).
Background shading ON/OFF and background color.
Label colors for the session’s High and Low.
Settings
Pivot Length: left/right bars to form a pivot.
ATR Length: ATR period used for the equality tolerance.
Threshold (0–1): ATR multiplier to decide whether two extremes are “equal” (e.g., 0.10 = difference ≤ 0.1 × ATR).
Wait For Confirmation: true = fully confirmed pivots; false = quicker confirmation (more anticipation, more noise).
Reading & suggested use
Session High/Low often act as liquidity references and potential resistance/support for the following session.
EQH/EQL can point to resting liquidity (areas prone to sweeps or breaks).
Use it as a map: combine these references with your plan (e.g., London/NY ORB, VWAP, order blocks).
Pairs Trading Scanner [BackQuant]Pairs Trading Scanner
What it is
This scanner analyzes the relationship between your chart symbol and a chosen pair symbol in real time. It builds a normalized “spread” between them, tracks how tightly they move together (correlation), converts the spread into a Z-Score (how far from typical it is), and then prints clear LONG / SHORT / EXIT prompts plus an at-a-glance dashboard with the numbers that matter.
Why pairs at all?
Markets co-move. When two assets are statistically related, their relationship (the spread) tends to oscillate around a mean.
Pairs trading doesn’t require calling overall market direction you trade the relative mispricing between two instruments.
This scanner gives you a robust, visual way to find those dislocations, size their significance, and structure the trade.
How it works (plain English)
Step 1 Pick a partner: Select the Pair Symbol to compare against your chart symbol. The tool fetches synchronized prices for both.
Step 2 Build a spread: Choose a Spread Method that defines “relative value” (e.g., Log Spread, Price Ratio, Return Difference, Price Difference). Each lens highlights a different flavor of divergence.
Step 3 Validate relationship: A rolling Correlation checks if the pair is moving together enough to be tradable. If correlation is weak, the scanner stands down.
Step 4 Standardize & score: The spread is normalized (mean & variability over a lookback) to form a Z-Score . Large absolute Z means “stretched,” small means “near fair.”
Step 5 Signals: When the Z-Score crosses user-defined thresholds with sufficient correlation , entries print:
LONG = long chart symbol / short pair symbol,
SHORT = short chart symbol / long pair symbol,
EXIT = mean reversion into the exit zone or correlation failure.
Core concepts (the three pillars)
Spread Method Your definition of “distance” between the two series.
Guidance:
Log Spread: Focuses on proportional differences; robust when prices live on different scales.
Price Ratio: Classic relative value; good when you care about “X per Y.”
Return Difference: Emphasizes recent performance gaps; nimble for momentum-to-mean plays.
Price Difference: Straight subtraction; intuitive for similar-scale assets (e.g., two ETFs).
Correlation A rolling score of co-movement. The scanner requires it to be above your Min Correlation before acting, so you’re not trading random divergence.
Z-Score “How abnormal is today’s spread?” Positive = chart richer than pair; negative = cheaper. Thresholds define entries/exits with transparent, statistical context.
What you’ll see on the chart
Correlation plot (blue line) with a dashed Min Correlation guide. Above the line = green zone for signals; below = hands off.
Z-Score plot (white line) with colored, dashed Entry bands and dotted Exit bands. Zero line for mean.
Normalized spread (yellow) for a quick “shape read” of recent divergence swings.
Signal markers :
LONG (green label) when Z < –Entry and corr OK,
SHORT (red label) when Z > +Entry and corr OK,
EXIT (gray label) when Z returns inside the Exit band or correlation drops below the floor.
Background tint for active state (faint green for long-spread stance, faint red for short-spread stance).

Analysis Table (bottom-right)
Avg Correlation Typical co-movement level over your window.
Max |Z| The recent extremes of dislocation.
Spread Volatility How “lively” the spread has been.
Trade Signal A human-readable prompt (e.g., “LONG A / SHORT B” or “NO TRADE” / “LOW CORRELATION”).
Risk Level LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH based on current stretch (absolute Z).
Signals logic (plain English)
Entry (LONG): The spread is unusually negative (chart cheaper vs pair) and correlation is healthy. Expect mean reversion upward in the spread: long chart, short pair.
Entry (SHORT): The spread is unusually positive (chart richer vs pair) and correlation is healthy. Expect mean reversion downward in the spread: short chart, long pair.
Exit: The spread relaxes back toward normal (inside your exit band), or correlation deteriorates (relationship no longer trusted).
A quick, repeatable workflow
1) Choose your pair in context (same sector/theme or known macro link). Think: “Do these two plausibly co-move?”
2) Pick a spread lens that matches your narrative (ratio for relative value, returns for short-term performance gaps, etc.).
3) Confirm correlation is above your floor no corr, no trade.
4) Wait for a stretch (Z beyond Entry band) and a printed LONG / SHORT .
5) Manage to the mean (EXIT band) or correlation failure; let the scanners’ state/labels keep you honest.
Settings that matter (and why)
Spread Method Defines the “mispricing” you care about.
Correlation Period Longer = steadier regime read, shorter = snappier to regime change.
Z-Score Period The window that defines “normal” for the spread; it sets the yardstick.
Use Percentage Returns Normalizes series when using return-based logic; keep on for mixed-scale assets.
Entry / Exit Thresholds Set your stretch and your target reversion zone. Wider entries = rarer but stronger signals.
Minimum Correlation The gatekeeper. Raising it favors quality over quantity.
Choosing pairs (practical cheat sheet)
Same family: two index ETFs, two oil-linked names, two gold miners, two L1 tokens.
Hedge & proxy: stock vs. sector ETF, BTC vs. BTC index, WTI vs. energy ETF.
Cross-venue or cross-listing: instruments that are functionally the same exposure but price differently intraday.
Reading the cues like a pro
Divergence shape: The yellow normalized spread helps you see rhythm fast spike and snap-back versus slow grind.
Corr-first discipline: Don’t fight the “Min Correlation” line. Good pairs trading starts with a relationship you can trust.
Exit humility: When Z re-centers, let the EXIT do its job. The edge is the journey to the mean, not overstaying it.
Frequently asked (quick answers)
“Long/Short means what exactly?”
LONG = long the chart symbol and short the pair symbol.
SHORT = short the chart symbol and long the pair symbol.
“Do I need same price scales?” No. The spread methods normalize in different ways; choose the one that fits your use case (log/ratio are great for mixed scales).
“What if correlation falls mid-trade?” The scanner will neutralize the state and print EXIT . Relationship first; trade second.
Field notes & patterns
Snap-back days: After a one-sided session, return-difference spreads often flag cleaner intraday mean reversions.
Macro rotations: Ratio spreads shine during sector re-weights (e.g., value vs. growth ETFs); look for steady corr + elevated |Z|.
Event bleed-through: If one symbol reacts to news and its partner lags, Z often flags a high-quality, short-horizon re-centering.

Momentum Moving Averages | MisinkoMasterThe Momentum Moving Averages (MMA) indicator blends multiple moving averages into a single momentum-scoring framework, helping traders identify whether market conditions are favoring upside momentum or downside momentum.
By comparing faster, more adaptive moving averages (DEMA, TEMA, ALMA, HMA) against a baseline EMA, the MMA produces a cumulative score that reflects the prevailing strength and direction of the trend.
🔎 Methodology
Moving Averages Used
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) → Baseline reference.
DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average) → Reacts faster than EMA.
TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average) → Even faster, reduces lag further.
ALMA (Arnaud Legoux Moving Average) → Smooth but adaptive, with adjustable σ and offset.
HMA (Hull Moving Average) → Very responsive, reduces lag, ideal for momentum shifts.
Scoring System
Each comparison is made against the EMA baseline:
If another MA is above EMA → +1 point.
If another MA is below EMA → -1 point.
The total score reflects overall momentum:
Positive score → Bullish bias.
Negative score → Bearish bias.
Trend Logic
Bullish Signal → When the score crosses above 0.1.
Bearish Signal → When the score crosses below -0.1.
Neutral or sideways trends are identified when the score remains between thresholds.
📈 Visualization
All five moving averages are plotted on the chart.
Colors adapt to the current score:
Cyan (Bullish bias) → Positive momentum.
Magenta (Bearish bias) → Negative momentum.
Overlapping fills between MAs highlight zones of convergence/divergence, making momentum shifts visually clear.
⚡ Features
Adjustable length parameter for all MAs.
Adjustable ALMA parameters (sigma and offset).
Cumulative momentum score system to filter false signals.
Works across all markets (crypto, forex, stocks, indices).
Overlay design for direct chart integration.
✅ Use Cases
Trend Confirmation → Ensure alignment with market momentum.
Momentum Shifts → Spot when faster MAs consistently outperform the baseline EMA.
Entry & Exit Filter → Avoid trades when the score is neutral or indecisive.
Divergence Visualizer → Filled zones make it easier to see when MAs begin separating or converging.
Low History Required → Unlike most For Loops, this script does not require that much history, making it less lagging and more responsive
⚠️ Limitations
Works best in trending conditions; performance decreases in sideways/choppy ranges.
Sensitivity of signals depends on chosen length and ALMA settings.
Should not be used as a standalone buy/sell system—combine with volume, structure, or higher timeframe analysis.
MSFusion- MultiScoreFusionThis Pine Script strategy, MSFusion - MultiScoreFusion, combines Ichimoku components and Hull Moving Average (HMA) signals to generate a composite score for each bar.
It evaluates several conditions—such as price crossing above HMA55, Tenkan and Kijun lines, and price position relative to the Ichimoku cloud—and assigns scores to each.
The script displays a label with the total score and a tooltip listing the contributing conditions when a strong bullish signal is detected. This approach helps traders quickly assess market momentum and trend strength using multiple technical criteria.
Adaptive Pivot Zones█ OVERVIEW
The "Adaptive Pivot Zones" indicator is a versatile tool designed to identify and visualize key pivot levels directly on the price chart. By detecting pivot highs and lows, the indicator calculates dynamic support and resistance zones based on user-defined levels (default: 0.382, 0.5, 0.618). These zones adapt to market volatility, providing traders with clear visual cues for potential reversal or continuation points. The indicator offers extensive customization options, such as adjusting colors, smoothing lines, and setting fill transparency, making it highly adaptable to various trading styles.
█ CONCEPTS
The "Adaptive Pivot Zones" indicator simplifies the identification of significant price levels by plotting three dynamic pivot lines, which can be smoothed to reduce market noise. The indicator dynamically changes the colors of the lines and fill zones based on price action, using bullish, bearish, or neutral colors to reflect market sentiment.
█ CALCULATIONS
The indicator relies on the following calculations:
- Pivot Detection: Pivot highs (ta.pivothigh) and pivot lows (ta.pivotlow) are identified using a user-defined pivot length (default: 10). Pivots represent significant price peaks and troughs. Higher pivot length values produce more stable levels but introduce a delay equal to the set value. For more aggressive strategies, the pivot length can be reduced.
- Pivot Levels: When both a pivot high and low are detected, the range between them is calculated (rng = drHigh - drLow). Three pivot levels are computed as:
Line 1: drLow + rng * pivotLevel1
Line 2: drLow + rng * pivotLevel2
Line 3: drLow + rng * pivotLevel3
- Smoothing: Pivot lines can be smoothed using a simple moving average (SMA) with a user-defined smoothing length (default: 1) to reduce noise and improve readability.
- Color Logic: Lines and fill zones are colored based on the price position relative to the pivot zones:
If the price is below the lowest pivot line, a bearish color is used (default: red).
If the price is above the highest pivot line, a bullish color is used (default: green).
If the price is within the pivot zones and the neutral color option is enabled, a neutral color is used (default: gray); otherwise, the previous color is retained.
- Fill Zones: The areas between pivot lines are filled with a user-defined transparency level (default: 80) to visually highlight support and resistance zones.
█ INDICATOR FEATURES
- Dynamic Pivot Lines: Three adaptive pivot lines (default levels: 0.382, 0.5, 0.618) are plotted on the price chart, adjusting to market volatility.
- Smoothing: User-defined smoothing length (default: 1) for pivot lines to reduce noise and enhance signal clarity.
- Dynamic Coloring: Lines and fill zones change color based on price action (bullish, bearish, or neutral when the price moves within the zone), reflecting market sentiment.
- Fill Zones: Transparent fills between pivot lines to visually highlight support and resistance zones.
- Customization: Options to adjust pivot length, pivot levels, smoothing, colors, transparency, and enable/disable neutral color logic.
█ HOW TO SET UP THE INDICATOR
- Add the "Adaptive Pivot Zones" indicator to your TradingView chart.
- Configure parameters in the settings, such as pivot length, pivot levels, smoothing length, and colors, to align with your trading strategy. Without smoothing, lines behave like levels; with smoothing, they act like bands. All three levels can be set to the same value to obtain a single level or a line behaving like a moving average derived from pivots.
- Enable or disable the neutral color option (for prices moving within the zone) and adjust fill transparency for optimal visualization.
- Adjust line thickness and style in the "Style" section to improve chart readability.
Example of bands – lines behave like support/resistance zones.
Example of a moving average derived from pivots – line behaves like a pivot-based MA.
█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your chart, adjust the settings, and observe price interactions with the pivot lines and zones to identify potential trading opportunities. Key signals include:
- Price Interaction with Pivot Lines: When the price approaches or crosses a pivot line, it may indicate a potential support or resistance level. A bounce from a pivot line could signal a reversal, while a breakout might suggest trend continuation.
- Zone-Based Signals and Trend Line Usage: Price movement within or outside the filled zones can indicate market sentiment. Price below the lowest pivot line suggests bearish momentum, price above the highest pivot line suggests bullish momentum, and price within the zones may indicate consolidation. With higher pivot length values, the indicator can be used as a trend line, particularly during clear market movements.
- Color Changes: Shifts in line and fill colors (bullish, bearish, or neutral) provide visual cues about changing market conditions.
- Confirmation with Other Tools: Combine the indicator with tools like RSI or Bollinger Bands to validate signals and improve trade accuracy. For example, a buy signal from RSI in the oversold zone combined with a bounce from the lowest pivot line may indicate a strong entry point.
Small Business Economic Conditions - Statistical Analysis ModelThe Small Business Economic Conditions Statistical Analysis Model (SBO-SAM) represents an econometric approach to measuring and analyzing the economic health of small business enterprises through multi-dimensional factor analysis and statistical methodologies. This indicator synthesizes eight fundamental economic components into a composite index that provides real-time assessment of small business operating conditions with statistical rigor. The model employs Z-score standardization, variance-weighted aggregation, higher-order moment analysis, and regime-switching detection to deliver comprehensive insights into small business economic conditions with statistical confidence intervals and multi-language accessibility.
1. Introduction and Theoretical Foundation
The development of quantitative models for assessing small business economic conditions has gained significant importance in contemporary financial analysis, particularly given the critical role small enterprises play in economic development and employment generation. Small businesses, typically defined as enterprises with fewer than 500 employees according to the U.S. Small Business Administration, constitute approximately 99.9% of all businesses in the United States and employ nearly half of the private workforce (U.S. Small Business Administration, 2024).
The theoretical framework underlying the SBO-SAM model draws extensively from established academic research in small business economics and quantitative finance. The foundational understanding of key drivers affecting small business performance builds upon the seminal work of Dunkelberg and Wade (2023) in their analysis of small business economic trends through the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) Small Business Economic Trends survey. Their research established the critical importance of optimism, hiring plans, capital expenditure intentions, and credit availability as primary determinants of small business performance.
The model incorporates insights from Federal Reserve Board research, particularly the Senior Loan Officer Opinion Survey (Federal Reserve Board, 2024), which demonstrates the critical importance of credit market conditions in small business operations. This research consistently shows that small businesses face disproportionate challenges during periods of credit tightening, as they typically lack access to capital markets and rely heavily on bank financing.
The statistical methodology employed in this model follows the econometric principles established by Hamilton (1989) in his work on regime-switching models and time series analysis. Hamilton's framework provides the theoretical foundation for identifying different economic regimes and understanding how economic relationships may vary across different market conditions. The variance-weighted aggregation technique draws from modern portfolio theory as developed by Markowitz (1952) and later refined by Sharpe (1964), applying these concepts to economic indicator construction rather than traditional asset allocation.
Additional theoretical support comes from the work of Engle and Granger (1987) on cointegration analysis, which provides the statistical framework for combining multiple time series while maintaining long-term equilibrium relationships. The model also incorporates insights from behavioral economics research by Kahneman and Tversky (1979) on prospect theory, recognizing that small business decision-making may exhibit systematic biases that affect economic outcomes.
2. Model Architecture and Component Structure
The SBO-SAM model employs eight orthogonalized economic factors that collectively capture the multifaceted nature of small business operating conditions. Each component is normalized using Z-score standardization with a rolling 252-day window, representing approximately one business year of trading data. This approach ensures statistical consistency across different market regimes and economic cycles, following the methodology established by Tsay (2010) in his treatment of financial time series analysis.
2.1 Small Cap Relative Performance Component
The first component measures the performance of the Russell 2000 index relative to the S&P 500, capturing the market-based assessment of small business equity valuations. This component reflects investor sentiment toward smaller enterprises and provides a forward-looking perspective on small business prospects. The theoretical justification for this component stems from the efficient market hypothesis as formulated by Fama (1970), which suggests that stock prices incorporate all available information about future prospects.
The calculation employs a 20-day rate of change with exponential smoothing to reduce noise while preserving signal integrity. The mathematical formulation is:
Small_Cap_Performance = (Russell_2000_t / S&P_500_t) / (Russell_2000_{t-20} / S&P_500_{t-20}) - 1
This relative performance measure eliminates market-wide effects and isolates the specific performance differential between small and large capitalization stocks, providing a pure measure of small business market sentiment.
2.2 Credit Market Conditions Component
Credit Market Conditions constitute the second component, incorporating commercial lending volumes and credit spread dynamics. This factor recognizes that small businesses are particularly sensitive to credit availability and borrowing costs, as established in numerous Federal Reserve studies (Bernanke and Gertler, 1995). Small businesses typically face higher borrowing costs and more stringent lending standards compared to larger enterprises, making credit conditions a critical determinant of their operating environment.
The model calculates credit spreads using high-yield bond ETFs relative to Treasury securities, providing a market-based measure of credit risk premiums that directly affect small business borrowing costs. The component also incorporates commercial and industrial loan growth data from the Federal Reserve's H.8 statistical release, which provides direct evidence of lending activity to businesses.
The mathematical specification combines these elements as:
Credit_Conditions = α₁ × (HYG_t / TLT_t) + α₂ × C&I_Loan_Growth_t
where HYG represents high-yield corporate bond ETF prices, TLT represents long-term Treasury ETF prices, and C&I_Loan_Growth represents the rate of change in commercial and industrial loans outstanding.
2.3 Labor Market Dynamics Component
The Labor Market Dynamics component captures employment cost pressures and labor availability metrics through the relationship between job openings and unemployment claims. This factor acknowledges that labor market tightness significantly impacts small business operations, as these enterprises typically have less flexibility in wage negotiations and face greater challenges in attracting and retaining talent during periods of low unemployment.
The theoretical foundation for this component draws from search and matching theory as developed by Mortensen and Pissarides (1994), which explains how labor market frictions affect employment dynamics. Small businesses often face higher search costs and longer hiring processes, making them particularly sensitive to labor market conditions.
The component is calculated as:
Labor_Tightness = Job_Openings_t / (Unemployment_Claims_t × 52)
This ratio provides a measure of labor market tightness, with higher values indicating greater difficulty in finding workers and potential wage pressures.
2.4 Consumer Demand Strength Component
Consumer Demand Strength represents the fourth component, combining consumer sentiment data with retail sales growth rates. Small businesses are disproportionately affected by consumer spending patterns, making this component crucial for assessing their operating environment. The theoretical justification comes from the permanent income hypothesis developed by Friedman (1957), which explains how consumer spending responds to both current conditions and future expectations.
The model weights consumer confidence and actual spending data to provide both forward-looking sentiment and contemporaneous demand indicators. The specification is:
Demand_Strength = β₁ × Consumer_Sentiment_t + β₂ × Retail_Sales_Growth_t
where β₁ and β₂ are determined through principal component analysis to maximize the explanatory power of the combined measure.
2.5 Input Cost Pressures Component
Input Cost Pressures form the fifth component, utilizing producer price index data to capture inflationary pressures on small business operations. This component is inversely weighted, recognizing that rising input costs negatively impact small business profitability and operating conditions. Small businesses typically have limited pricing power and face challenges in passing through cost increases to customers, making them particularly vulnerable to input cost inflation.
The theoretical foundation draws from cost-push inflation theory as described by Gordon (1988), which explains how supply-side price pressures affect business operations. The model employs a 90-day rate of change to capture medium-term cost trends while filtering out short-term volatility:
Cost_Pressure = -1 × (PPI_t / PPI_{t-90} - 1)
The negative weighting reflects the inverse relationship between input costs and business conditions.
2.6 Monetary Policy Impact Component
Monetary Policy Impact represents the sixth component, incorporating federal funds rates and yield curve dynamics. Small businesses are particularly sensitive to interest rate changes due to their higher reliance on variable-rate financing and limited access to capital markets. The theoretical foundation comes from monetary transmission mechanism theory as developed by Bernanke and Blinder (1992), which explains how monetary policy affects different segments of the economy.
The model calculates the absolute deviation of federal funds rates from a neutral 2% level, recognizing that both extremely low and high rates can create operational challenges for small enterprises. The yield curve component captures the shape of the term structure, which affects both borrowing costs and economic expectations:
Monetary_Impact = γ₁ × |Fed_Funds_Rate_t - 2.0| + γ₂ × (10Y_Yield_t - 2Y_Yield_t)
2.7 Currency Valuation Effects Component
Currency Valuation Effects constitute the seventh component, measuring the impact of US Dollar strength on small business competitiveness. A stronger dollar can benefit businesses with significant import components while disadvantaging exporters. The model employs Dollar Index volatility as a proxy for currency-related uncertainty that affects small business planning and operations.
The theoretical foundation draws from international trade theory and the work of Krugman (1987) on exchange rate effects on different business segments. Small businesses often lack hedging capabilities, making them more vulnerable to currency fluctuations:
Currency_Impact = -1 × DXY_Volatility_t
2.8 Regional Banking Health Component
The eighth and final component, Regional Banking Health, assesses the relative performance of regional banks compared to large financial institutions. Regional banks traditionally serve as primary lenders to small businesses, making their health a critical factor in small business credit availability and overall operating conditions.
This component draws from the literature on relationship banking as developed by Boot (2000), which demonstrates the importance of bank-borrower relationships, particularly for small enterprises. The calculation compares regional bank performance to large financial institutions:
Banking_Health = (Regional_Banks_Index_t / Large_Banks_Index_t) - 1
3. Statistical Methodology and Advanced Analytics
The model employs statistical techniques to ensure robustness and reliability. Z-score normalization is applied to each component using rolling 252-day windows, providing standardized measures that remain consistent across different time periods and market conditions. This approach follows the methodology established by Engle and Granger (1987) in their cointegration analysis framework.
3.1 Variance-Weighted Aggregation
The composite index calculation utilizes variance-weighted aggregation, where component weights are determined by the inverse of their historical variance. This approach, derived from modern portfolio theory, ensures that more stable components receive higher weights while reducing the impact of highly volatile factors. The mathematical formulation follows the principle that optimal weights are inversely proportional to variance, maximizing the signal-to-noise ratio of the composite indicator.
The weight for component i is calculated as:
w_i = (1/σᵢ²) / Σⱼ(1/σⱼ²)
where σᵢ² represents the variance of component i over the lookback period.
3.2 Higher-Order Moment Analysis
Higher-order moment analysis extends beyond traditional mean and variance calculations to include skewness and kurtosis measurements. Skewness provides insight into the asymmetry of the sentiment distribution, while kurtosis measures the tail behavior and potential for extreme events. These metrics offer valuable information about the underlying distribution characteristics and potential regime changes.
Skewness is calculated as:
Skewness = E / σ³
Kurtosis is calculated as:
Kurtosis = E / σ⁴ - 3
where μ represents the mean and σ represents the standard deviation of the distribution.
3.3 Regime-Switching Detection
The model incorporates regime-switching detection capabilities based on the Hamilton (1989) framework. This allows for identification of different economic regimes characterized by distinct statistical properties. The regime classification employs percentile-based thresholds:
- Regime 3 (Very High): Percentile rank > 80
- Regime 2 (High): Percentile rank 60-80
- Regime 1 (Moderate High): Percentile rank 50-60
- Regime 0 (Neutral): Percentile rank 40-50
- Regime -1 (Moderate Low): Percentile rank 30-40
- Regime -2 (Low): Percentile rank 20-30
- Regime -3 (Very Low): Percentile rank < 20
3.4 Information Theory Applications
The model incorporates information theory concepts, specifically Shannon entropy measurement, to assess the information content of the sentiment distribution. Shannon entropy, as developed by Shannon (1948), provides a measure of the uncertainty or information content in a probability distribution:
H(X) = -Σᵢ p(xᵢ) log₂ p(xᵢ)
Higher entropy values indicate greater unpredictability and information content in the sentiment series.
3.5 Long-Term Memory Analysis
The Hurst exponent calculation provides insight into the long-term memory characteristics of the sentiment series. Originally developed by Hurst (1951) for analyzing Nile River flow patterns, this measure has found extensive application in financial time series analysis. The Hurst exponent H is calculated using the rescaled range statistic:
H = log(R/S) / log(T)
where R/S represents the rescaled range and T represents the time period. Values of H > 0.5 indicate long-term positive autocorrelation (persistence), while H < 0.5 indicates mean-reverting behavior.
3.6 Structural Break Detection
The model employs Chow test approximation for structural break detection, based on the methodology developed by Chow (1960). This technique identifies potential structural changes in the underlying relationships by comparing the stability of regression parameters across different time periods:
Chow_Statistic = (RSS_restricted - RSS_unrestricted) / RSS_unrestricted × (n-2k)/k
where RSS represents residual sum of squares, n represents sample size, and k represents the number of parameters.

5. Practical Application and Interpretation Guidelines
5.1 Index Interpretation Framework
The SBO-SAM index operates on a 0-100 scale with statistical normalization ensuring consistent interpretation across different time periods and market conditions. Values above 70 indicate statistically elevated small business conditions, suggesting favorable operating environment with potential for expansion and growth. Values below 30 indicate statistically reduced conditions, suggesting challenging operating environment with potential constraints on business activity.
The median reference line at 50 represents the long-term equilibrium level, with deviations providing insight into cyclical conditions relative to historical norms. The statistical confidence bands at 95% levels (approximately ±2 standard deviations) help identify when conditions reach statistically significant extremes.
5.2 Regime Classification System
The model employs a seven-level regime classification system based on percentile rankings:
Very High Regime (P80+): Exceptional small business conditions, typically associated with strong economic growth, easy credit availability, and favorable regulatory environment. Historical analysis suggests these periods often precede economic peaks and may warrant caution regarding sustainability.
High Regime (P60-80): Above-average conditions supporting business expansion and investment. These periods typically feature moderate growth, stable credit conditions, and positive consumer sentiment.
Moderate High Regime (P50-60): Slightly above-normal conditions with mixed signals. Careful monitoring of individual components helps identify emerging trends.
Neutral Regime (P40-50): Balanced conditions near long-term equilibrium. These periods often represent transition phases between different economic cycles.
Moderate Low Regime (P30-40): Slightly below-normal conditions with emerging headwinds. Early warning signals may appear in credit conditions or consumer demand.
Low Regime (P20-30): Below-average conditions suggesting challenging operating environment. Businesses may face constraints on growth and expansion.
Very Low Regime (P0-20): Severely constrained conditions, typically associated with economic recessions or financial crises. These periods often present opportunities for contrarian positioning.
5.3 Component Analysis and Diagnostics
Individual component analysis provides valuable diagnostic information about the underlying drivers of overall conditions. Divergences between components can signal emerging trends or structural changes in the economy.
Credit-Labor Divergence: When credit conditions improve while labor markets tighten, this may indicate early-stage economic acceleration with potential wage pressures.
Demand-Cost Divergence: Strong consumer demand coupled with rising input costs suggests inflationary pressures that may constrain small business margins.
Market-Fundamental Divergence: Disconnection between small-cap equity performance and fundamental conditions may indicate market inefficiencies or changing investor sentiment.
5.4 Temporal Analysis and Trend Identification
The model provides multiple temporal perspectives through momentum analysis, rate of change calculations, and trend decomposition. The 20-day momentum indicator helps identify short-term directional changes, while the Hodrick-Prescott filter approximation separates cyclical components from long-term trends.
Acceleration analysis through second-order momentum calculations provides early warning signals for potential trend reversals. Positive acceleration during declining conditions may indicate approaching inflection points, while negative acceleration during improving conditions may suggest momentum loss.
5.5 Statistical Confidence and Uncertainty Quantification
The model provides comprehensive uncertainty quantification through confidence intervals, volatility measures, and regime stability analysis. The 95% confidence bands help users understand the statistical significance of current readings and identify when conditions reach historically extreme levels.
Volatility analysis provides insight into the stability of current conditions, with higher volatility indicating greater uncertainty and potential for rapid changes. The regime stability measure, calculated as the inverse of volatility, helps assess the sustainability of current conditions.
6. Risk Management and Limitations
6.1 Model Limitations and Assumptions
The SBO-SAM model operates under several important assumptions that users must understand for proper interpretation. The model assumes that historical relationships between economic variables remain stable over time, though the regime-switching framework helps accommodate some structural changes. The 252-day lookback period provides reasonable statistical power while maintaining sensitivity to changing conditions, but may not capture longer-term structural shifts.
The model's reliance on publicly available economic data introduces inherent lags in some components, particularly those based on government statistics. Users should consider these timing differences when interpreting real-time conditions. Additionally, the model's focus on quantitative factors may not fully capture qualitative factors such as regulatory changes, geopolitical events, or technological disruptions that could significantly impact small business conditions.
The model's timeframe restrictions ensure statistical validity by preventing application to intraday periods where the underlying economic relationships may be distorted by market microstructure effects, trading noise, and temporal misalignment with the fundamental data sources. Users must utilize daily or longer timeframes to ensure the model's statistical foundations remain valid and interpretable.
6.2 Data Quality and Reliability Considerations
The model's accuracy depends heavily on the quality and availability of underlying economic data. Market-based components such as equity indices and bond prices provide real-time information but may be subject to short-term volatility unrelated to fundamental conditions. Economic statistics provide more stable fundamental information but may be subject to revisions and reporting delays.
Users should be aware that extreme market conditions may temporarily distort some components, particularly those based on financial market data. The model's statistical normalization helps mitigate these effects, but users should exercise additional caution during periods of market stress or unusual volatility.
6.3 Interpretation Caveats and Best Practices
The SBO-SAM model provides statistical analysis and should not be interpreted as investment advice or predictive forecasting. The model's output represents an assessment of current conditions based on historical relationships and may not accurately predict future outcomes. Users should combine the model's insights with other analytical tools and fundamental analysis for comprehensive decision-making.
The model's regime classifications are based on historical percentile rankings and may not fully capture the unique characteristics of current economic conditions. Users should consider the broader economic context and potential structural changes when interpreting regime classifications.

The SBO-SAM model is implemented in Pine Script version 6 for the TradingView platform, ensuring compatibility with modern charting and analysis tools. The implementation follows best practices for financial indicator development, including proper error handling, data validation, and performance optimization.
The model includes comprehensive timeframe validation to ensure statistical accuracy and reliability. The indicator operates exclusively on daily (1D) timeframes or higher, including weekly (1W), monthly (1M), and longer periods. This restriction ensures that the statistical analysis maintains appropriate temporal resolution for the underlying economic data sources, which are primarily reported on daily or longer intervals.
When users attempt to apply the model to intraday timeframes (such as 1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 1-hour, 2-hour, 4-hour, 6-hour, 8-hour, or 12-hour charts), the system displays a comprehensive error message in the user's selected language and prevents execution. This safeguard protects users from potentially misleading results that could occur when applying daily-based economic analysis to shorter timeframes where the underlying data relationships may not hold.
The model's statistical calculations are performed using vectorized operations where possible to ensure computational efficiency. The multi-language support system employs Unicode character encoding to ensure proper display of international characters across different platforms and devices.
The alert system utilizes TradingView's native alert functionality, providing users with flexible notification options including email, SMS, and webhook integrations. The alert messages include comprehensive statistical information to support informed decision-making.
The model's visualization system employs professional color schemes designed for optimal readability across different chart backgrounds and display devices. The system includes dynamic color transitions based on momentum and volatility, professional glow effects for enhanced line visibility, and transparency controls that allow users to customize the visual intensity to match their preferences and analytical requirements. The clean confidence band implementation provides clear statistical boundaries without visual distractions, maintaining focus on the analytical content.
Katz Candle Momentum Reversal Indicator v4.1Katz Candle Momentum Reversal Indicator (CMRI) v4.1
Overview
The Katz CMRI is a comprehensive trading indicator designed to identify trend direction, momentum shifts, and potential market reversals. It combines several different concepts into a single, cohesive visual tool.
At its core, the indicator uses a custom Line Break chart calculation to filter out market noise and a Heikin-Ashi-style formula to smooth price action. This combination helps to more clearly define the underlying trend. The main output is a dynamic, multi-colored trend line accompanied by various signals that appear directly on your chart. It's designed to help traders stay with the trend while also spotting key moments of expansion, contraction, and potential reversal.
How to Interpret the Indicator
The indicator has several key visual components:
Main Trend Line: This is the thick, central line that changes color.
Green: Indicates a bullish (upward) trend.
Red: Indicates a bearish (downward) trend.
Faded/Light Colors: Suggest a potential loss of momentum or a pullback within the trend.
White: Signals a significant break in the trend structure.
Trend Cloud: The shaded area between the main trend line and the white midline (mid). A green cloud shows the trend is above the midpoint, while a red cloud shows it's below.
Upper/Lower Bands: The aqua (Trend Up) and yellow (Trend Down) lines represent the recent highs and lows of the established trend. When price is pushing against these bands, it signals trend strength.
Background Colors:
Gray: A "Contraction Zone." This indicates that the trend is losing momentum and consolidating, warning of potential chop or a reversal.
Blue: An "Expansion Event." This highlights a sudden increase in momentum in the direction of the trend.
Signal Shapes:
Diamonds: These are the primary entry signals. A green diamond below a candle signals a potential long entry, while a red diamond above a candle signals a potential short entry.
⬆️⬇️ Arrows: These are secondary momentum signals. They can be used as confirmation that the trend is continuing.
Trading Strategy & Rules
This strategy uses the primary diamond signals for entries and trend changes for exits.
Long Trade (Buy) Rules
Entry: Wait for a green diamond to appear below the price candles. For confirmation, the main trend line should turn solid green, and the price should ideally be above the white midline.
Exit:
Stop Loss: Place a stop loss below the recent swing low or below the candle where the green diamond appeared.
Take Profit: Consider exiting the trade when a red diamond appears above the candles, signaling a potential trend reversal. Alternatively, a trader might exit if the background turns gray (Contraction Zone), indicating the bullish momentum has faded.
Short Trade (Sell) Rules
Entry: Wait for a red diamond to appear above the price candles. For confirmation, the main trend line should turn solid red, and the price should ideally be below the white midline.
Exit:
Stop Loss: Place a stop loss above the recent swing high or above the candle where the red diamond appeared.
Take Profit: Consider exiting the trade when a green diamond appears below the candles. A gray "Contraction Zone" can also serve as an early warning to exit as bearish momentum wanes.
Indicator Filters Explained
The indicator includes a "Trend Filter Type" setting that allows you to adjust its sensitivity. This can help reduce false signals in choppy markets.
Raw: This is the most sensitive setting. It will generate a trend change signal as soon as the basic conditions are met. Use this for scalping or in strongly trending markets, but be aware that it may produce more false signals.
OutStep: This is the default, balanced setting. It adds an extra layer of confirmation by requiring the main trend line itself to be moving in the direction of the new trend. For example, a new green signal will only be confirmed if the trend line's value is higher than its previous value. This helps filter out weak signals.
FullStep: This is the most conservative and filtered setting. It includes the "OutStep" logic and adds further conditions related to the upper and lower trend bands. This setting will produce the fewest signals, but they are generally the highest quality, making it suitable for swing trading or avoiding choppy market conditions.
