Market Cycle Phases IndicatorOverview
The Market Cycle Phases Indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify and visualize the different phases of market cycles. By distinguishing between Accumulation, Uptrend, Distribution, and Downtrend phases, this indicator provides a clear and color-coded representation of market conditions, aiding in better decision-making and strategy development. It is especially useful for long-term investors to observe and understand market cycles over extended periods. The phases are color-coded for easy identification: Green for Accumulation, Blue for Uptrend, Yellow for Distribution, and Red for Downtrend.
Key Features
Identifies four key market phases: Accumulation, Uptrend, Distribution, and Downtrend
Uses a combination of moving averages and volatility measures
Color-coded background for easy visualization of market phases
Adjustable parameters for moving average length, volatility length, and volatility threshold
Plots the moving average and Average True Range (ATR) for reference
Suitable for both short-term trading and long-term investing
Concepts Underlying the Calculations
The calculations behind the Market Cycle Phases Indicator are straightforward, combining the principles of moving averages and volatility measures:
Moving Average (MA): A simple moving average is used to determine the overall trend direction.
Average True Range (ATR): This measures market volatility over a specified period.
Volatility Threshold: A multiplier is applied to the ATR to distinguish between high and low volatility conditions.
How It Works
The indicator first calculates a moving average (MA) of the closing prices and the Average True Range (ATR) to measure market volatility. Based on the position of the price relative to the MA and the current volatility level, the indicator determines the current market phase:
Accumulation Phase: Price is below the MA, and volatility is low (Green background). This phase often indicates a period of consolidation and potential buying interest before an uptrend.
Uptrend Phase: Price is above the MA, and volatility is high (Blue background). This phase represents a strong upward movement in price, often driven by increased buying activity.
Distribution Phase: Price is above the MA, and volatility is low (Yellow background). This phase suggests a period of consolidation at the top of an uptrend, where selling interest may start to increase.
Downtrend Phase: Price is below the MA, and volatility is high (Red background). This phase indicates a strong downward movement in price, often driven by increased selling activity.
How Traders Can Use It
Traders can use the Market Cycle Phases Indicator to:
Identify potential entry and exit points based on market phase transitions.
Confirm trends and avoid false signals by considering both trend direction and volatility.
Develop and refine trading strategies tailored to specific market conditions.
Enhance risk management by recognizing periods of high and low volatility.
Observe long-term market cycles to make informed investment decisions.

Consider buying during the Accumulation or Uptrend phases.
Consider selling or shorting during the Distribution or Downtrend phases.
Combine with other indicators and analysis techniques for comprehensive market insights.
By incorporating the Market Cycle Phases Indicator into your trading toolkit, you can gain a clearer understanding of market dynamics and enhance your ability to navigate different market conditions, making it a valuable asset for long-term investing.
Phase Accumulation Adaptive Fisher Transform [Loxx]Phase Accumulation Adaptive Fisher Transform is an adaptive Fisher Transform using a modified version of Ehlers Phase Accumulation Cycle Period. This version of Phase Accumulation Cylce Period accepts as inputs: 1) total number of cycles you wish to inject into the calculation, this works as a multiplier so the higher this number, the longer the period output; 2) filter is to change the alpha value of the final smother before returning the period output.
What is the Phase Accumulation Cycle?
The phase accumulation method of computing the dominant cycle is perhaps the easiest to comprehend. In this technique, we measure the phase at each sample by taking the arctangent of the ratio of the quadrature component to the in-phase component. A delta phase is generated by taking the difference of the phase between successive samples. At each sample we can then look backwards, adding up the delta phases.When the sum of the delta phases reaches 360 degrees, we must have passed through one full cycle, on average.The process is repeated for each new sample.
The phase accumulation method of cycle measurement always uses one full cycle’s worth of historical data.This is both an advantage and a disadvantage.The advantage is the lag in obtaining the answer scales directly with the cycle period.That is, the measurement of a short cycle period has less lag than the measurement of a longer cycle period. However, the number of samples used in making the measurement means the averaging period is variable with cycle period. longer averaging reduces the noise level compared to the signal.Therefore, shorter cycle periods necessarily have a higher out- put signal-to-noise ratio.
What is Fisher Transform?
The Fisher Transform is a technical indicator created by John F. Ehlers that converts prices into a Gaussian normal distribution.
The indicator highlights when prices have moved to an extreme, based on recent prices. This may help in spotting turning points in the price of an asset. It also helps show the trend and isolate the price waves within a trend.

Daylight Saving Time (DST) : Adjust time appropriate to Daylight Saving Time of the specific region.
🔶 USAGE
A macro is a way to automate a task or procedure which you perform on a regular basis.
In the context of ICT's teachings, a macro is a small program or set of instructions that unfolds within an algorithm, which influences price movements in the market. These macros operate at specific times and can be related to price runs from one level to another or certain market behaviors during specific time intervals. They help traders anticipate market movements and potential setups during specific time intervals.
To trade these effectively, it is important to understand the time of day when certain macros come into play, and it is strongly advised to introduce the concept of liquidity in your analysis.
Macros can be classified into three categories where the Macro classification is calculated based on the Market Structure prior to macro and the Market Structure during the macro duration:
Manipulation Macro
Manipulation macros are characterized by liquidity being swept both on the buyside and sellside.
Expansion Macro
Expansion macros are characterized by liquidity being swept only on the buyside or sellside. Prices within these macros are highly correlated with the overall trend.
Accumulation Macro
Accumulation macros are characterized by an accumulation of liquidity. Prices within these macros tend to range.
The script returns the maximum/minimum price values reached during the macro interval alongside the average between the maximum/minimum and extends them until a new macro starts. These levels can act as supports and resistances.
🔶 DETAILS
All required data for the macro detection and classification is retrieved using 1 minute data sets, this includes candles as well as pivot/swing highs and lows. This approach guarantees the visually presented objects are same (same highs/lows) on higher timeframes as well as the macro classification remain same as it is in 1 min charts.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers DC using the Phase AccumulationLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced Measuring the Dominant Cycle using the Phase Accumulation in his "Cycle Analytics for Traders" chapter 14 on 2013.
Function
With Hilbert transformer, the next algorithm to compute the dominant cycle is the phase accumulation method. The phase accumulation method of computing the dominant cycle is perhaps the easiest to comprehend. In this technique, we measure the phase at each sample by taking the arctangent of the ratio of the quadrature component to the in-phase component. A delta phase is generated by taking the difference of the phase between successive samples. At each sample we can then look backwards, adding up the delta phases. When the sum of the delta phases reaches 360 degrees, we must have passed through one full cycle, on average. The process is repeated for each new sample.
The phase accumulation method of cycle measurement always uses one full cycle's worth of historical data. This is both an advantage and a disadvantage. The advantage is the lag in obtaining the answer scales directly with the cycle period. That is, the measurement of a short cycle period has less lag than the measurement of a longer cycle period. However, the number of samples used in making the measurement means the averaging period is variable with cycle period. Longer averaging reduces the noise level compared to the signal. Therefore, shorter cycle periods necessarily have a higher output signal-to-noise ratio.

Chaikin Money Flow was developed by Marc Chaikin and measures the amount of Money Flow Volume over a specific period. The indicator oscillates between +1 and -1, where:
Positive values indicate money flowing into the security (accumulation)
Negative values indicate money flowing out of the security (distribution)
Values near zero suggest equilibrium between buying and selling pressure
CALCULATION METHOD
Money Flow Multiplier = ((Close - Low) - (High - Close)) / (High - Low)
Money Flow Volume = Money Flow Multiplier × Volume
CMF = Sum of Money Flow Volume over N periods / Sum of Volume over N periods
KEY FEATURES
Big Money Detection:
Identifies significant institutional activity when CMF exceeds user-defined thresholds
Requires volume confirmation (volume above average) to validate signals
Uses battery icon (🔋) for institutional buying and lightning icon (⚡) for institutional selling
Visual Elements:
Background coloring based on money flow direction
Support and resistance levels calculated using Average True Range
Real-time dashboard showing current CMF value, volume strength, and signal status
Customizable Parameters:
CMF Period: Calculation period for the money flow (default: 20)
Signal Smoothing: EMA smoothing applied to reduce noise (default: 5)
Big Money Threshold: CMF level required to trigger institutional signals (default: 0.15)
Volume Threshold: Volume multiplier required for signal confirmation (default: 1.5x)
INTERPRETATION
Signal Types:
🔋 (Battery): Indicates strong institutional buying when CMF > threshold with high volume
⚡ (Lightning): Indicates strong institutional selling when CMF < -threshold with high volume
Background color: Green tint for positive money flow, red tint for negative money flow
Dashboard Information:
CMF Value: Current Chaikin Money Flow reading
Volume: Current volume as a multiple of 20-period average
Big Money: Status of institutional activity (BUYING/SELLING/QUIET)
Signal: Strength assessment (STRONG/MEDIUM/WEAK)
TRADING APPLICATIONS
Trend Confirmation: Use CMF direction to confirm price trends
Divergence Analysis: Look for divergences between price and money flow
Volume Validation: Confirm breakouts with corresponding money flow
Accumulation/Distribution: Identify phases of institutional activity
PARAMETER RECOMMENDATIONS
Day Trading: CMF Period 14-21, higher sensitivity settings
Swing Trading: CMF Period 20-30, moderate sensitivity
Position Trading: CMF Period 30-50, lower sensitivity for major trends
ALERTS
Optional alert system notifies users when:
Big money buying is detected (CMF above threshold with volume confirmation)
Big money selling is detected (CMF below negative threshold with volume confirmation)

ICT Professional Accumulation DistributionICT Professional Accumulation Distribution (ICT AD) provides a x-ray view into market accumulation and distribution. You can literally see the institutions at work.
The indicator consists of two cumulative lines derived from:
Cumulative change from open to close
Cumulative change from previous close to new open
By overlaying these two cumulative lines, you can detect real meaningful divergence that is narrative based not mathematically derived. You're seeing the real works of algorithms in play working in this area.
These divergences are only useful at extremes (topping or bottoming formations), not while trending. It will probably confirm your suspicion about making a important high or low.
This works on all timeframes but is most impactful on the daily.
How to use:
Method 1:
Enable the option for "Show Open vs Close."
Calculate the shift by subtracting the "Open vs Close" line value from the ICT Accumulation/Distribution (AD) line value.
Look for divergences between the two cumulative lines.
Method 2:
Switch the chart's display mode to "Line View" (representing the Open vs Close).
look for divergences between the line chart and the ICT AD line.
Up/Down Volume RatioUp/Down Volume Ratio is calculated by summing volume on days when it closes up and divide that total by the volume on days when the stock closed down.
High volume up days are typically a sign of accumulation(buying) by big players, while down days are signs of distribution(selling) by big market players. The Up Down volume ratio takes this assumption and turns it into a tangible number that's easier for the trader to understand. My formula is calculated using the past 50 periods, be warned it will not display a value for stocks with under 50 periods of trading history. This indicator is great for identify accumulation of growth stocks early on in their moves, most of the time you would like a growth stocks U/D value to be above 2, showing institutional sponsorship of a stock.
Up/Down Volume value interpretation:
U/D < 1 -> Bearish outlook, as sellers are in control
U/D = 1 -> Sellers and Buyers are equal
U/D > 1 -> Bullish outlook, as buyers are in control
U/D > 2 -> Bullish outlook, significant accumulation underway by market makers
U/D >= 3 -> MONSTER STOCK ALERT, market makers can not get enough of this stock and are ravenous to buy more
U/D values greater than 2 are rare and typically do not last very long, and U/D >= 3 are extremely rare one example I kind find of a stock's U/D peaking above 3 was Google back in 2005.

Usage
By breaking 24hrs in quarters, starting with an Asian range of 18:00 NY time you can visualise the principles of Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution and Rebalance. Know as AMD or PO3 (Power of Three), the principle is that the Manipulation phase will break above or below the Accumulation, before moving in an apposing direction and then rebalancing. This only works when there is a higher timeframe PD array or liquidity to support an apposing move.
Further to the daily quarters, each one can then be broken down again into 90min cycles. Again, each represents AMD, allowing the user an opportunity to watch for reversals during the 90min manipulation phase.
Note: Ensure the Asian Cycle always begins at 18:00 NY time.
The example shows that the 90min cycle occurs, followed by an apposing move away in price action
Here is the Daily cycle, highlighting the Manipulation phase.

The strategy only signals buys or sells after occurrences of high volatility, followed by extremely high or low heat values. It's optimized for utilizing accumulation and distribution at lower and higher prices respectively with respect to last 14 days. 2nd version will include dynamic dollar cost averaging during the accumulation and distribution periods.
Chaikin Volume Accumulation Oscillator (VAO)The Volume Accumulation Oscillator is a volume momentum indicator developed by Mark Chaikin (177E, 77th Street, New York, NY
10021). Their simplest form is a sliding sum of daily volumes divided by the difference between the daily closing price and the midpoint of the daily price range.
It is a sensitive short term oscillator, the values of which are obtained by subtracting the value of the previous day of its own ESS from the cumulative sum of the cumulative volume
length of 2 days (for the purpose of normalization, the result is then divided by the value 2-day ESS for the previous day)
Analysis of historical data shows that volume accumulation indicator can be an effective tool, especially on Long
positions.

Volume-Weighted Money Flow [sgbpulse]Overview
The VWMF indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool that combines and summarizes five leading momentum and volume indicators (OBV, PVT, A/D, CMF, MFI) into one clear oscillator. The indicator helps to provide a clear picture of market sentiment by measuring the pressure from buyers and sellers. Unlike single indicators, VWMF provides a comprehensive view of market money flow by weighting existing indicators and presenting them in a uniform and understandable format.
Indicator Components
VWMF combines the following indicators, each normalized to a range of 0 to 100 before being weighted:
On-Balance Volume (OBV): A cumulative indicator that measures positive and negative volume flow.
Price-Volume Trend (PVT): Similar to OBV, but incorporates relative price change for a more precise measure.
Accumulation/Distribution Line (A/D): Used to identify whether an asset is being bought (accumulated) or sold (distributed).
Chaikin Money Flow (CMF): Measures the money flow over a period based on the close price's position relative to the candle's range.
Money Flow Index (MFI): A momentum oscillator that combines price and volume to measure buying and selling pressure.
Understanding the Normalized Oscillators
The indicator combines the five different momentum indicators by normalizing each one to a uniform range of 0 to 100 .
Why is Normalization Important?
Indicators like OBV, PVT, and the A/D Line are cumulative indicators whose values can become very large. To assess their trend, we use a Moving Average as a dynamic reference line . The Moving Average allows us to understand whether the indicator is currently trending up or down relative to its average behavior over time.
How Does Normalization Work?
Our normalization fully preserves the original trend of each indicator.
For Cumulative Indicators (OBV, PVT, A/D): We calculate the difference between the current indicator value and its Moving Average. This difference is then passed to the normalization process.
- If the indicator is above its Moving Average, the difference will be positive, and the normalized value will be above 50.
- If the indicator is below its Moving Average, the difference will be negative, and the normalized value will be below 50.
Handling Extreme Values: To overcome the issue of extreme values in indicators like OBV, PVT, and the A/D Line , the function calculates the highest absolute value over the selected period. This value is used to prevent sharp spikes or drops in a single indicator from compromising the accuracy of the normalization over time. It's a sophisticated method that ensures the oscillators remain relevant and accurate.
For Bounded Indicators (CMF, MFI): These indicators already operate within a known range (for example, CMF is between -1 and 1, and MFI is between 0 and 100), so they are normalized directly without an additional reference line.
Reference Line Settings:
Moving Average Type: Allows the user to choose between a Simple Moving Average (SMA) and an Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
Volume Flow MA Length: Allows the user to set the lookback period for the Moving Average, which affects the indicator's sensitivity.
The 50 line serves as the new "center line." This ensures that, even after normalization, the determination of whether a specific indicator supports a bullish or bearish trend remains clear.
Settings and Visual Tools
The indicator offers several customization options to provide a rich analysis experience:
VWMF Oscillator (Blue Line): Represents the weighted average of all five indicators. Values above 50 indicate bullish momentum, and values below 50 indicate bearish momentum.
Strength Metrics (Bullish/Bearish Strength %): Two metrics that appear on the status line, showing the percentage of indicators supporting the current trend. They range from 0% to 100%, providing a quick view of the strength of the consensus.
Dynamic Background Colors: The background color of the chart automatically changes to bullish (a blue shade by default) or bearish (a default brown-gray shade) based on the trend. The transparency of the color shows the consensus strength—the more opaque the background, the more indicators support the trend.
Advanced Settings:
- Background Color Logic: Allows the user to choose the trigger for the background color: Weighted Value (based on the combined oscillator) or Strength (based on the majority of individual indicators).
- Weights: Provides full control over the weight of each of the five indicators in the final oscillator.
Using the Data Window
TradingView provides a useful Data Window that allows you to see the exact numerical values of each normalized oscillator separately, in addition to the trend strength data.
You can use this window to:
Get more detailed information on each indicator: Viewing the precise numerical data of each of the five indicators can help in making trading decisions.
Calibrate weights: If you want to manually adjust the indicator weights (in the settings menu), you can do so while tracking the impact of each indicator on the weighted oscillator in the Data Window.
The indicator's default setting is an equal weight of 20% for each of the five indicators.
Alert Conditions
The indicator comes with a variety of built-in alerts that can be configured through the TradingView alerts menu:
VWMF Cross Above 50: An alert when the VWMF oscillator crosses above the 50 line, indicating a potential bullish momentum shift.
VWMF Cross Below 50: An alert when the VWMF oscillator crosses below the 50 line, indicating a potential bearish momentum shift.
Bullish Strength: High But Not Absolute Consensus: An alert when the bullish trend strength reaches 60% or more but is less than 100%, indicating a high but not absolute consensus.
Bullish Strength at 100%: An alert when all five indicators (MFI, OBV, PVT, A/D, CMF) show bullish strength, indicating a full and absolute consensus.
Bearish Strength: High But Not Absolute Consensus: An alert when the bearish trend strength reaches 60% or more but is less than 100%, indicating a high but not absolute consensus.
Bearish Strength at 100%: An alert when all five indicators (MFI, OBV, PVT, A/D, CMF) show bearish strength, indicating a full and absolute consensus.
Summary
The VWMF indicator is a powerful, all-in-one tool for analyzing market momentum, money flow, and sentiment. By combining and normalizing five different indicators into a single oscillator, it offers a holistic and accurate view of the market's underlying trend. Its dynamic visual features and customizable settings, including the ability to adjust indicator weights, provide a flexible experience for both novice and experienced traders. The built-in alerts for momentum shifts and trend consensus make it an effective tool for spotting trading opportunities with confidence. In essence, VWMF distills complex market data into clear, actionable signals.

Inverse Fisher Oscillator [BigBeluga]The Inverse Fisher Oscillator is a powerful tool for identifying market trends and potential reversal points by applying the Inverse Fisher Transform to normalized price data. This indicator plots multiple smoothed oscillators, each color-coded to signify their relation to dynamic volatility bands. Additionally, the Butterworth filter is incorporated to further refine trend signals. The Inverse Fisher Oscillator offers traders a visually appealing and insightful approach to trend analysis and market direction detection.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
● Inverse Fisher Oscillator Visualization
Multiple Oscillators : The indicator calculates and plots six different Inverse Fisher Oscillators, each smoothed at increasing levels to provide a layered view of price momentum.
Color-Coded Signals : The oscillator lines are color-coded based on their relation to the volatility bands—green for bullish momentum, red for bearish momentum, and yellow for neutral movements.
● Butterworth Filter Integration
Filtering : The Butterworth filter is applied to mid-line Bands to reduce noise, allowing for clearer trend detection.
// Calculate constants for the Butterworth filter
float piPrd = math.pi / mid_len
float g = math.sqrt(2)
float a1 = math.exp(-g * piPrd)
float b1 = 2 * a1 * math.cos(g * piPrd)
float coef2 = b1
float coef3 = -a1 * a1
float coef1 = (1 - b1 + a1 * a1) / 4
// Source data for the Butterworth filter
float source = ifish // The first inverse Fisher Oscillator is used as the source
// Previous source and butter filter values
var float butter = na // Initialize the 'butter' variable
// Handle null values using the nz function
float prevB1 = nz(butter , source) // Use 'source' as a fallback if butter is null
float prevB2 = nz(butter , source) // Use 'source' as a fallback if butter is null
// Calculate the Butterworth filter value
butter := coef1 * (source + (2 * source ) + source ) + (coef2 * prevB1) + (coef3 * prevB2)
● Numbered Signal Marks
Signal Markers : The indicator plots numbered signals on the chart when an oscillator crosses above the upper volatility band or below the lower volatility band.
Numbered Lines : Numbers correspond to the different oscillators (1-6), helping traders easily identify which smoothing level generated the signal.
Visual Cues : The signals are color-coded—green for bullish crossovers and red for bearish crossunders—providing clear visual cues for trend accumulation phases.
Mid-Line Option : Traders can choose between plotting the Butterworth filter as a dynamic mid-line or simply displaying it as part of the bands.
Volatility Bands : Dynamic volatility bands provide additional context for interpreting the strength and sustainability of trends.
● Dashboard Display
Real-Time Market Trend Overview : The dashboard in the bottom-right corner of the chart displays the market trend based on the Inverse Fisher Oscillator for six different smoothing levels, providing a clear visual summary of market direction.
Direction Symbols : Directional symbols (up, down, or neutral) are displayed in the dashboard, color-coded to represent bullish, bearish, or neutral momentum.
Current Price Display : The dashboard also shows the current price and highlights whether it is above or below the opening price.
🔵 HOW TO USE
● Identifying Trend Reversals
Bullish Reversals : When the oscillators short period lines start to cross above the upper volatility band (green), it indicates potential bullish momentum.
Bearish Reversals : When the oscillator crosses below the lower volatility band (red), it signals potential bearish momentum.
Neutral Signals : When the oscillator remains within the bands (yellow), it suggests that the market is in a neutral or consolidating state. Traders may choose to wait for a clearer trend signal.
● Using the Dashboard for Trend Overview
Market Trend Summary : The dashboard provides a quick overview of market direction across six different smoothing levels. Green arrows indicate bullish momentum, red arrows indicate bearish momentum, and wavy lines suggest neutrality.
Price Context : The dashboard also displays the current price, helping traders quickly assess whether the price is moving in the expected direction relative to their trend analysis.
● Volatility Band Interpretation
Volatility-Based Signals : Pay attention to how the oscillators interact with the volatility bands. Strong trends will often result in oscillators staying above or below the bands, while weaker trends or consolidations will see oscillators hovering within the bands.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Length and Smoothing : Adjust the length and smoothing parameters to fit different market conditions and timeframes.
Bands Multiplier : Customize the multiplier for the volatility bands to make them more or less sensitive to price changes.
Mid-Line Type : Choose whether to display the Butterworth filter as a mid-line or incorporate it into the volatility bands.
Signal Markers : Toggle on or off the number markers for signal crossovers, making it easier to identify key entry and exit points.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Inverse Fisher Oscillator combines the power of the Inverse Fisher Transform and the Butterworth filter to provide a sophisticated approach to trend and reversal detection. By leveraging volatility-based analysis and visually intuitive signals, this indicator helps traders spot potential entry and exit points with greater clarity. The customizable dashboard display adds further value, offering a real-time summary of market conditions to enhance decision-making. Use this tool in conjunction with other technical analysis methods to develop a well-rounded trading strategy.
