PnL Bubble [%] | Fractalyst1. What's the indicator purpose?
The PnL Bubble indicator transforms your strategy's trade PnL percentages into an interactive bubble chart with professional-grade statistics and performance analytics. It helps traders quickly assess system profitability, understand win/loss distribution patterns, identify outliers, and make data-driven strategy improvements.
How does it work?
Think of this indicator as a visual report card for your trading performance. Here's what it does:
What You See
Colorful Bubbles: Each bubble represents one of your trades
Blue/Cyan bubbles = Winning trades (you made money)
Red bubbles = Losing trades (you lost money)
Bigger bubbles = Bigger wins or losses
Smaller bubbles = Smaller wins or losses
How It Organizes Your Trades:
Like a Photo Album: Instead of showing all your trades at once (which would be messy), it shows them in "pages" of 500 trades each:
Page 1: Your first 500 trades
Page 2: Trades 501-1000
Page 3: Trades 1001-1500, etc.
What the Numbers Tell You:
Average Win: How much money you typically make on winning trades
Average Loss: How much money you typically lose on losing trades
Expected Value (EV): Whether your trading system makes money over time
Positive EV = Your system is profitable long-term
Negative EV = Your system loses money long-term
Payoff Ratio (R): How your average win compares to your average loss
R > 1 = Your wins are bigger than your losses
R < 1 = Your losses are bigger than your wins
Why This Matters:
At a Glance: You can instantly see if you're a profitable trader or not
Pattern Recognition: Spot if you have more big wins than big losses
Performance Tracking: Watch how your trading improves over time
Realistic Expectations: Understand what "average" performance looks like for your system
The Cool Visual Effects:
Animation: The bubbles glow and shimmer to make the chart more engaging
Highlighting: Your biggest wins and losses get extra attention with special effects
Tooltips: hover any bubble to see details about that specific trade.
What are the underlying calculations?
The indicator processes trade PnL data using a dual-matrix architecture for optimal performance:
Dual-Matrix System:
• Display Matrix (display_matrix): Bounded to 500 trades for rendering performance
• Statistics Matrix (stats_matrix): Unbounded storage for complete statistical accuracy
Trade Classification & Aggregation:
// Separate wins, losses, and break-even trades
if val > 0.0
pos_sum += val // Sum winning trades
pos_count += 1 // Count winning trades
else if val < 0.0
neg_sum += val // Sum losing trades
neg_count += 1 // Count losing trades
else
zero_count += 1 // Count break-even trades
Statistical Averages:
avg_win = pos_count > 0 ? pos_sum / pos_count : na
avg_loss = neg_count > 0 ? math.abs(neg_sum) / neg_count : na
Win/Loss Rates:
total_obs = pos_count + neg_count + zero_count
win_rate = pos_count / total_obs
loss_rate = neg_count / total_obs
Expected Value (EV):
ev_value = (avg_win × win_rate) - (avg_loss × loss_rate)
Payoff Ratio (R):
R = avg_win ÷ |avg_loss|
Contribution Analysis:
ev_pos_contrib = avg_win × win_rate // Positive EV contribution
ev_neg_contrib = avg_loss × loss_rate // Negative EV contribution
How to integrate with any trading strategy?
Equity Change Tracking Method:
//@version=6
strategy("Your Strategy with Equity Change Export", overlay=true)
float prev_trade_equity = na
float equity_change_pct = na
if barstate.isconfirmed and na(prev_trade_equity)
prev_trade_equity := strategy.equity
trade_just_closed = strategy.closedtrades != strategy.closedtrades
if trade_just_closed and not na(prev_trade_equity)
current_equity = strategy.equity
equity_change_pct := ((current_equity - prev_trade_equity) / prev_trade_equity) * 100
prev_trade_equity := current_equity
else
equity_change_pct := na
plot(equity_change_pct, "Equity Change %", display=display.data_window)
Integration Steps:
1. Add equity tracking code to your strategy
2. Load both strategy and PnL Bubble indicator on the same chart
3. In bubble indicator settings, select your strategy's equity tracking output as data source
4. Configure visualization preferences (colors, effects, page navigation)
How does the pagination system work?
The indicator uses an intelligent pagination system to handle large trade datasets efficiently:
Page Organization:
• Page 1: Trades 1-500 (most recent)
• Page 2: Trades 501-1000
• Page 3: Trades 1001-1500
• Page N: Trades to
Example: With 1,500 trades total (3 pages available):
• User selects Page 1: Shows trades 1-500
• User selects Page 4: Automatically falls back to Page 3 (trades 1001-1500)
5. Understanding the Visual Elements
Bubble Visualization:
• Color Coding: Cyan/blue gradients for wins, red gradients for losses
• Size Mapping: Bubble size proportional to trade magnitude (larger = bigger P&L)
• Priority Rendering: Largest trades displayed first to ensure visibility
• Gradient Effects: Color intensity increases with trade magnitude within each category
Interactive Tooltips:
Each bubble displays quantitative trade information:
tooltip_text = outcome + " | PnL: " + pnl_str +
"\nDate: " + date_str + " " + time_str +
"\nTrade #" + str.tostring(trade_number) + " (Page " + str.tostring(active_page) + ")" +
"\nRank: " + str.tostring(rank) + " of " + str.tostring(n_display_rows) +
"\nPercentile: " + str.tostring(percentile, "#.#") + "%" +
"\nMagnitude: " + str.tostring(magnitude_pct, "#.#") + "%"
Example Tooltip:
Win | PnL: +2.45%
Date: 2024.03.15 14:30
Trade #1,247 (Page 3)
Rank: 5 of 347
Percentile: 98.6%
Magnitude: 85.2%
Reference Lines & Statistics:
• Average Win Line: Horizontal reference showing typical winning trade size
• Average Loss Line: Horizontal reference showing typical losing trade size
• Zero Line: Threshold separating wins from losses
• Statistical Labels: EV, R-Ratio, and contribution analysis displayed on chart
What do the statistical metrics mean?
Expected Value (EV):
Represents the mathematical expectation per trade in percentage terms
EV = (Average Win × Win Rate) - (Average Loss × Loss Rate)
Interpretation:
• EV > 0: Profitable system with positive mathematical expectation
• EV = 0: Break-even system, profitability depends on execution
• EV < 0: Unprofitable system with negative mathematical expectation
Example: EV = +0.34% means you expect +0.34% profit per trade on average
Payoff Ratio (R):
Quantifies the risk-reward relationship of your trading system
R = Average Win ÷ |Average Loss|
Interpretation:
• R > 1.0: Wins are larger than losses on average (favorable risk-reward)
• R = 1.0: Wins and losses are equal in magnitude
• R < 1.0: Losses are larger than wins on average (unfavorable risk-reward)
Example: R = 1.5 means your average win is 50% larger than your average loss
Contribution Analysis (Σ):
Breaks down the components of expected value
Positive Contribution (Σ+) = Average Win × Win Rate
Negative Contribution (Σ-) = Average Loss × Loss Rate
Purpose:
• Shows how much wins contribute to overall expectancy
• Shows how much losses detract from overall expectancy
• Net EV = Σ+ - Σ- (Expected Value per trade)
Example: Σ+: 1.23% means wins contribute +1.23% to expectancy
Example: Σ-: -0.89% means losses drag expectancy by -0.89%
Win/Loss Rates:
Win Rate = Count(Wins) ÷ Total Trades
Loss Rate = Count(Losses) ÷ Total Trades
Shows the probability of winning vs losing trades
Higher win rates don't guarantee profitability if average losses exceed average wins
7. Demo Mode & Synthetic Data Generation
When using built-in sources (close, open, etc.), the indicator generates realistic demo trades for testing:
if isBuiltInSource(source_data)
// Generate random trade outcomes with realistic distribution
u_sign = prand(float(time), float(bar_index))
if u_sign < 0.5
v_push := -1.0 // Loss trade
else
// Skewed distribution favoring smaller wins (realistic)
u_mag = prand(float(time) + 9876.543, float(bar_index) + 321.0)
k = 8.0 // Skewness factor
t = math.pow(u_mag, k)
v_push := 2.5 + t * 8.0 // Win trade
Demo Characteristics:
• Realistic win/loss distribution mimicking actual trading patterns
• Skewed distribution favoring smaller wins over large wins
• Deterministic randomness for consistent demo results
• Includes jitter effects to prevent visual overlap

Disclaimer & Risk Considerations:
Important: Historical performance metrics, including positive Expected Value (EV), do not guarantee future trading success. Statistical measures are derived from finite sample data and subject to inherent limitations:
• Sample Bias: Historical data may not represent future market conditions or regime changes
• Ergodicity Assumption: Markets are non-stationary; past statistical relationships may break down
• Survivorship Bias: Strategies showing positive historical EV may fail during different market cycles
• Parameter Instability: Optimal parameters identified in backtesting often degrade in forward testing
• Transaction Cost Evolution: Slippage, spreads, and commission structures change over time
• Behavioral Factors: Live trading introduces psychological elements absent in backtesting
• Black Swan Events: Extreme market events can invalidate statistical assumptions instantaneously

Constance Brown Composite Index EnhancedWhat This Indicator Does
Implements Constance Brown's copyrighted Composite Index formula (1996) from her Master's thesis - a breakthrough oscillator that solves the critical problem where RSI fails to show divergences in long-horizon trends, providing early warning signals for major market reversals.
The Problem It Solves
Traditional RSI frequently fails to display divergence signals in Global Equity Indexes and long-term charts, leaving asset managers without warning of major price reversals. Brown's research showed RSI failed to provide divergence signals 42 times across major markets - failures that would have been "extremely costly for asset managers."
Key Components
Composite Line: RSI Momentum (9-period) + Smoothed RSI Average - the core breakthrough formula
Fast/Slow Moving Averages: Trend direction confirmation (13/33 periods default)
Bollinger Bands: Volatility envelope around the composite signal
Enhanced Divergence Detection: Significantly improved trend reversal timing vs standard RSI
Research-Proven Performance
Based on Brown's extensive study across 6 major markets (1919-2015):
42 divergence signals triggered where RSI showed none
33 signals passed with meaningful reversals (78% success rate)
Only 5 failures - exceptional performance in monthly/2-month timeframes
Tested on: German DAX, French CAC 40, Shanghai Composite, Dow Jones, US/Japanese Government Bonds
New Customization Features
Moving Average Types: Choose SMA or EMA for fast/slow lines
Optional Fills: Toggle composite and Bollinger band fills on/off
All Periods Adjustable: RSI length, momentum, smoothing periods
Visual Styling: Customize colors and line widths in Style tab
Default Settings (Original Formula)
RSI Length: 14
RSI Momentum: 9 periods
RSI MA Length: 3
SMA Length: 3
Fast SMA: 13, Slow SMA: 33
Bollinger STD: 2.0
Applications
Long-term investing: Monthly/2-month charts for major trend changes
Elliott Wave analysis: Maximum displacement at 3rd-of-3rd waves, divergence at 5th waves
Multi-timeframe: Pairs well with MACD, works across all timeframes
Global markets: Proven effective on equities, bonds, currencies, commodities
Perfect for serious traders and asset managers seeking the proven mathematical edge that traditional RSI cannot provide.

VHX EMA 135/315📈 EMA 135/315 Cross Strategy – Your Trend Compass with Smart Confirmations
🔍 Core Idea
The EMA 135/315 Cross strategy is a trend-following system.
It tracks two moving averages:
EMA 135 → the “fast” line that reacts to short-term price moves
EMA 315 → the “slow” line that reacts to the bigger trend
When the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA → market momentum is turning up → BUY signal 🟢
When the fast EMA crosses below the slow EMA → momentum is turning down → SELL signal 🔴
This gives you a clear entry trigger — no guessing, no overcomplication.
✨ On Your Chart
BUY/SELL Arrows
🟢 Green arrow = bullish cross → trend turning up
🔴 Red arrow = bearish cross → trend turning down
Trend Info Panel (Top Left)
Current Trend: BUY / SELL / Neutral
Last Cross: how many bars ago it happened
EMA Gap in %: measures the strength of the trend
Status: “Approaching” if EMAs are getting close → possible cross soon
Automatic TP/SL Levels
📈 TP line (+2% from entry)
📉 SL line (–0.5% from entry)
Saves time — you instantly see your target and protection
EMA Distance Meter
Big % gap = strong trend momentum 🚀
Small % gap = weak or sideways market ⚠️
Real-Time Alerts
You get notified when a cross happens, even if you’re away from the screen
🧠 The Logic Behind It
The EMA 135 reacts faster → it reflects short-term momentum
The EMA 315 moves slower → it reflects the main trend
When the fast EMA overtakes the slow EMA: short-term strength now aligns with the long-term trend → higher probability of a sustained move
The gap % tells you how strong the alignment is — large gap = cleaner moves, small gap = market in transition
“Approaching” status warns that the EMAs are converging, which often happens before a reversal
📊 Boosting the Strategy with Volume Analysis
The EMA cross is a strong trigger, but volume confirms the quality of the move:
High Volume + Cross → more reliable signal, as strong market participation is pushing the trend
Low Volume + Cross → caution, the move might be weak or a false breakout
💡 Tip:
Check the volume histogram or a volume-based indicator (e.g., Volume Profile, OBV).
On a BUY signal: volume should spike above the recent average.
On a SELL signal: watch for strong selling volume bars.
📍 Adding Support & Resistance for Precision
Support and resistance levels help filter out bad trades and optimize entries:
Best BUY setups:
EMA 135 crosses above EMA 315 near a known support zone
Bonus if volume confirms the move
Avoid buying directly into a strong resistance
Best SELL setups:
EMA 135 crosses below EMA 315 near a known resistance zone
Bonus if selling volume is strong
Avoid selling directly into a major support
💡 Use tools like horizontal lines, previous highs/lows, and Volume Profile nodes to spot these zones.
📈 Best Usage Practices
Timeframes
Lower timeframes (1m–5m) → more signals, but more noise → best for scalping with extra filters
Always Combine With Confirmation
EMA Cross = Trigger
Volume spike = Confirmation
S/R zone in your favor = High-probability setup
Manage Risk
Start with the built-in TP/SL
Adjust SL if volatility is higher than usual
Consider trailing stop once price moves in your favor
Avoid Sideways Markets
If EMA gap % is very small and crosses happen often → stand aside until a clear direction forms
Use Alerts
Set alerts for BUY & SELL crosses so you never miss a setup
In short:
This isn’t just an EMA cross indicator — it’s a trend system with built-in risk management, strength measurement, and pre-trade preparation. Combine it with volume confirmation and smart use of support/resistance, and you turn a simple signal into a high-probability trading edge.
Breakout Range Signal with Quality Analysis [Dova Lazarus]📌 Breakout Range Signal with Quality Analysis
🎓 Training-focused indicator for breakout logic, SL & TP behavior and signal quality assessment
🔷 PURPOSE
This tool identifies breakout candles from a calculated channel range and visually simulates entries, stop losses, and take profits, providing live and historical performance metrics.
⚙️ MAIN SETTINGS
1️⃣ Channel Setup
channel_length = 10 → how many candles are averaged to form channel boundaries
channel_multiplier = 0.0 → adds expansion above/below the base channel
channel_smoothing_type = SMA → smoothing method for high/low averaging
📊 The channel consists of two moving averages: one from highs, the other from lows. When expanded (via multiplier), it creates a buffer range for breakout validation.
2️⃣ Signal Detection
Body > Channel % = 50 → a breakout candle's body must exceed 150% of the channel width
Signal Mode:
• Weak → every valid breakout candle is highlighted
• Strong → only the first signal in a sequence is shown (helps reduce noise)
🟦 Bullish signals (blue):
• Candle opens inside the channel
• Closes above the channel
• Body is large enough
• Optional: confirms with trend (if enabled)
🟨 Bearish signals (yellow):
• Candle opens inside the channel
• Closes below the channel
• Body is large enough
• Optional: confirms with trend
3️⃣ Trend Filter (optional)
Enabled via checkbox
Uses a higher timeframe MA to filter signals
Bullish signals are allowed only if price is below the trend MA
Bearish signals only if price is above it
⏱️ trend_timeframe = 1D (typically set higher than the chart's timeframe)
🟢 Trend line is plotted if enabled
🎯 ENTRY, STOP LOSS & TAKE PROFIT LOGIC
SL and TP are based on channel width, not fixed pip/tick size:
📍 Entry Price = close of the breakout candle
🛑 Stop Loss:
• Bullish → below the lower channel border (minus offset)
• Bearish → above the upper channel border (plus offset)
🎯 Take Profit:
• Bullish → entry + channel width × profit multiplier
• Bearish → entry − channel width × profit multiplier
You can control:
Profit Target Multiplier (e.g., 1.0 → TP = 1×channel width)
Stop Loss Target Multiplier (e.g., 0.5 → SL = 0.5×channel width)
Signals to Show = how many historical SL/TP setups to display
📈 Lines and labels ("TP", "SL") are drawn on the chart for clarity.
🧪 QUALITY ANALYSIS MODULE
If enabled, the indicator will:
Track each new signal (entry, SL, TP)
Analyze outcomes:
• Win = TP hit before SL
• Loss = SL hit before TP
• Expired = signal unresolved after N bars
Display statistics in a table (top-right corner):
📋 Table fields:
✅ Overall win rate
📈 Bullish win rate
📉 Bearish win rate
🔢 Total signals
🕓 Pending (still active trades)
Maximum bars to wait for outcome is customizable (max_bars_to_analyze).
📐 VISUALIZATION TOOLS
TP / SL lines per signal
Labels “TP” and “SL”
Optional channel lines and trendline for better context
Colored bars for valid signals (blue/yellow)
📌 BEST USE CASES
Understand how breakout signals are formed
Learn SL/TP logic based on dynamic range
Test how volatility affects trade outcomes
Use as a visual simulation of trade behavior over time
MR.Z Strategy Reversal Signal Nadaraya SMA)Nadaraya-Watson Envelope (NW Envelope):
A smoothed, non-linear dynamic envelope that adapts to price structure. It visually identifies price extremes using kernel regression. The upper and lower bands move with the chart and provide reliable dynamic support and resistance.
EMA Levels:
Includes three key exponential moving averages:
EMA 50 (short-term trend)
EMA 100 (medium-term)
EMA 200 (long-term, institutional level)
Fully Scrollable and Responsive:
All lines and envelopes are plotted using plot() so they move with the chart and respond to zoom and pan actions naturally.
🧠 Ideal Use:
Identify reversal zones, dynamic support/resistance, and trend momentum exhaustion.
Combine WTB and NW Envelope for confluence-based entries.
Use EMA structure for trend confirmation or breakout anticipation.

Consolidation Range with Signals (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Consolidation Range with Signals (Zeiierman) is a precision tool for identifying and trading market consolidation zones, where price contracts into tight ranges before significant movement. It provides dynamic range detection using either ADX-based trend strength or volatility compression metrics, and offers built-in take profit and stop loss signals based on breakout dynamics.
Whether you trade breakouts, range reversals, or trend continuation setups, this indicator visualizes the balance between supply and demand with clearly defined mid-bands, breakout zones, and momentum-sensitive TP/SL placements.
█ How It Works
⚪ Multi-Method Range Detection
ADX Mode
Uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to detect low-trend-strength environments. When ADX is below your selected threshold, price is considered to be in consolidation.
Volatility Mode
This mode detects consolidation by identifying periods of volatility compression. It evaluates whether the following metrics are simultaneously below their respective historical rolling averages:
Standard Deviation
Variance
Average True Range (ATR)
⚪ Dynamic Range Band System
Once a range is confirmed, the system builds a dynamic band structure using a volatility-based filter and price-jump logic:
Middle Line (Trend Filter): Reacts to price imbalance using adaptive jump logic.
Upper & Lower Bands: Calculated by expanding from the middle line using a configurable multiplier.
This creates a clean, visual box that reflects current consolidation conditions and adapts as price fluctuates within or escapes the zone.
⚪ SL/TP Signal Engine
On detection of a breakout from the range, the indicator generates up to 3 Take Profit levels and one Stop Loss, based on the breakout direction:
All TP/SL levels are calculated using the filtered base range and multipliers.
Cooldown logic ensures signals are not spammed bar-to-bar.
Entries are visualized with colored lines and labeled levels.
This feature is ideal for traders who want automated risk and reward reference points for range breakout plays.
█ How to Use
⚪ Breakout Traders
Use the SL/TP signals when the price breaks above or below the range bands, especially after extended sideways movement. You can customize how far TP1, TP2, and TP3 sit from the entry using your own risk/reward profile.
⚪ Mean Reversion Traders
Use the bands to locate high-probability reversion zones. These serve as reference zones for scalping or fade entries within stable consolidation phases.
█ Settings
Range Detection Method – Choose between ADX or Volatility compression to define range criteria.
Range Period – Determines how many bars are used to compute trend/volatility.
Range Multiplier – Scales the width of the consolidation zone.
SL/TP System – Optional levels that project TP1/TP2/TP3 and SL from the base price using multipliers.
Cooldown – Prevents repeated SL/TP signals from triggering too frequently.
ADX Threshold & Smoothing – Adjusts sensitivity of trend strength detection.
StdDev / Variance / ATR Multipliers – Fine-tune compression detection logic.

Brian Shannon 5-Day MA BackgroundBrian Shannon 5-Day Moving Average with Dynamic Background Fill
OVERVIEW
This indicator implements Brian Shannon's renowned 5-Day Moving Average methodology from his acclaimed work "Technical Analysis Using Multiple Timeframes." The indicator provides instant visual clarity on short-term trend direction and momentum, making it an essential tool for swing traders and active investors.
KEY FEATURES
• True 5-Day Moving Average: Dynamically calculates the correct period across all timeframes (1min, 5min, 15min, 1H, etc.)
• Visual Price-to-MA Relationship: Color-coded fill between price and the moving average
- Green Fill: Price is above the 5-day MA (bullish short-term momentum)
- Red Fill: Price is below the 5-day MA (bearish short-term momentum)
• Multi-Timeframe Compatible: Works seamlessly on any chart timeframe while maintaining the true 5-day calculation
BRIAN SHANNON'S STRATEGIC APPLICATION
Primary Uses:
1. Trend Identification: Quickly identify short-term momentum shifts
2. Dynamic Support/Resistance: The 5-day MA acts as a moving support level in uptrends and resistance in downtrends
3. Entry Signal Confirmation: Look for pullbacks to the 5-day MA as potential entry points in trending stocks
4. Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Essential component of Shannon's multiple timeframe approach
Perfect Combination with:
• AVWAP (Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price): Use together to identify high-probability setups where price is above both the 5-day MA and AVWAP
• Longer-term Moving Averages: Combine with 20-day and 50-day MAs for complete trend analysis
• Volume Analysis: Confirm 5-day MA signals with volume patterns
TRADING APPLICATIONS
For Swing Traders:
• Bullish Setup: Price above 5-day MA + above AVWAP + above longer-term MAs = Strong uptrend
• Bearish Setup: Price below 5-day MA + below AVWAP + below longer-term MAs = Strong downtrend
• Entry Timing: Use pullbacks to the 5-day MA as entry opportunities in the direction of the primary trend
For Day Traders:
• Quick visual confirmation of intraday momentum
• Dynamic support/resistance levels for scalping opportunities
• Clear trend bias for directional trades
WHY THIS INDICATOR WORKS
Brian Shannon's approach emphasizes that the 5-day moving average represents the short-term sentiment of market participants. When price is consistently above this level, it indicates buyers are in control of short-term price action. Conversely, when price falls below, it suggests selling pressure is dominating.
The visual fill makes it immediately obvious:
• How far price is from the 5-day MA
• The strength of the current short-term trend
• Potential areas where price might find support or resistance
BEST PRACTICES
1. Never use in isolation - Always combine with longer timeframe analysis
2. Volume confirmation - Look for volume expansion on moves away from the 5-day MA
3. Multiple timeframe approach - Check higher timeframes for overall trend direction
4. Combine with AVWAP - Most powerful when both indicators align
INSTALLATION NOTES
This indicator automatically adjusts for any timeframe, ensuring you always get a true 5-trading-day moving average regardless of whether you're viewing 1-minute or hourly charts.
Based on the technical analysis methodology of Brian Shannon, author of "Technical Analysis Using Multiple Timeframes"
Hybrid Adaptive Momentum Average (HAMA)Hybrid Adaptive Momentum Average (HAMA)
Imagine you want a moving average line on your chart that's usually smooth but gets really quick to follow the price when the market suddenly makes a big, fast move. That's what HAMA tries to be.
Here's the simple breakdown:
Slightly Better Starting Price: Instead of just using the closing price, HAMA first creates a slightly "smarter" starting price by giving a bit more importance to the very latest prices (like a quick WMA).
Checks Market Speed (Momentum): It then looks at how fast this "smarter price" has been moving recently.
-If the price is shooting up or down quickly, HAMA knows there's strong momentum.
-If the price is just drifting sideways, momentum is low.
Adjusts Its Own Speed: Based on this momentum:
-Strong Momentum (Fast Market): HAMA makes itself "faster." This means its line will stick closer to the current price and react quickly to changes. (It uses a shorter "period" internally).
-Weak Momentum (Slow/Choppy Market): HAMA makes itself "slower." Its line will be smoother and less jumpy, ignoring minor wiggles. (It uses a longer "period" internally).
-Draws the Line: Finally, it calculates and draws the moving average line using this automatically adjusted speed.
Why "Hybrid"?
It's called "hybrid" because it takes bits and pieces of ideas from several standard moving averages:
-Like an EMA, it's built to be responsive.
-Like a WMA, it initially focuses on recent prices.
-Inspired by the HMA, it tries to be smart about detecting momentum to adjust itself.
In a Nutshell:
The HAMA is a custom moving average that tries to be the best of both worlds: smooth in calm markets and quick to react in fast-moving markets by automatically changing its own calculation speed based on price momentum.

Intraday Trading IndicatorIndicator Overview
Moving Averages: Uses a fast EMA (9-period) and a slow EMA (21-period) to determine the trend direction.
Market Profile Approximation: Utilizes VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) as a simplified proxy for value area, acting as a dynamic support/resistance level.
SMC: Incorporates the concept of trend confirmation and price interaction with key levels, focusing on pullbacks to the fast EMA within a trending market.
Signals: Generates buy and sell signals when price crosses the fast EMA, filtered by the trend (fast EMA vs. slow EMA) and VWAP position, aiming for high-probability setups.
This design ensures responsiveness on short timeframes while filtering out noise, aligning with the goal of accurate signals for intraday trading.

Traders need this because it’s a complete, adaptive system that blends quant smarts, user-friendly design, and DAFE flair. It’s your edge to trade with confidence, cut through market noise, and leave the copycats in the dust.
Strategy Components
1. Market Regime Detection
The strategy’s brain is its ability to classify market conditions into five regimes, ensuring signals match the environment.
How It Works:
Trending (Regime 1): ADX > 20, fast/slow EMA spread > 0.3x ATR, HTF RSI > 50 or MACD bullish (htf_trend_bull/bear).
Range (Regime 2): ADX < 25, price range < 3% of close, no HTF trend.
Volatile (Regime 3): BB width > 1.5x avg, ATR > 1.2x avg, HTF RSI overbought/oversold.
Quiet (Regime 4): BB width < 0.8x avg, ATR < 0.9x avg.
Other (Regime 5): Default for unclear conditions.
Indicators: ADX (14), BB width (20), ATR (14, 50-bar SMA), HTF RSI (14, daily default), HTF MACD (12,26,9).
Why It’s Brilliant:
Regime detection adapts signals to market context, boosting win rates in trending or volatile conditions.
HTF RSI/MACD add a big-picture filter, rare in basic scripts.
Visualized via gradient background (green for Trending, orange for Range, red for Volatile, gray for Quiet, navy for Other).
2. Multi-Factor Signal Scoring
Entries are driven by a weighted scoring system that combines candlestick patterns, trend, momentum, and volume for robust signals.
Candlestick Patterns:
Bullish: Engulfing (0.5), hammer (0.4 in Range, 0.2 else), morning star (0.2), piercing (0.2), double bottom (0.3 in Volatile, 0.15 else). Must be near support (low ≤ 1.01x 20-bar low) with volume spike (>1.5x 20-bar avg).
Bearish: Engulfing (0.5), shooting star (0.4 in Range, 0.2 else), evening star (0.2), dark cloud (0.2), double top (0.3 in Volatile, 0.15 else). Must be near resistance (high ≥ 0.99x 20-bar high) with volume spike.
Logic: Patterns are weighted higher in specific regimes (e.g., hammer in Range, double bottom in Volatile).
Additional Factors:
Trend: Fast EMA (20) > slow EMA (50) + 0.5x ATR (trend_bull, +0.2); opposite for trend_bear.
RSI: RSI (14) < 30 (rsi_bull, +0.15); > 70 (rsi_bear, +0.15).
MACD: MACD line > signal (12,26,9, macd_bull, +0.15); opposite for macd_bear.
Volume: ATR > 1.2x 50-bar avg (vol_expansion, +0.1).
HTF Confirmation: HTF RSI < 70 and MACD bullish (htf_bull_confirm, +0.2); RSI > 30 and MACD bearish (htf_bear_confirm, +0.2).
Scoring:
bull_score = sum of bullish factors; bear_score = sum of bearish. Entry requires score ≥ 1.0.
Example: Bullish engulfing (0.5) + trend_bull (0.2) + rsi_bull (0.15) + htf_bull_confirm (0.2) = 1.05, triggers long.
Why It’s Brilliant:
Multi-factor scoring ensures signals are confirmed by multiple market dynamics, reducing false positives.
Regime-specific weights make patterns more relevant (e.g., hammers shine in Range markets).
HTF confirmation aligns with the big picture, a quant edge over simplistic scripts.
3. Futures-Tuned Risk Management
The risk system is built for futures, calculating position sizes based on $ risk and offering flexible stops/TPs.
Position Sizing:
Logic: Risk per trade (default: $300) ÷ (stop distance in points * point value) = contracts, capped at max_contracts (default: 5). Point value = tick value (e.g., $12.5 for ES) * ticks per point (4) * contract multiplier (1 for ES, 0.1 for MES).
Example: $300 risk, 8-point stop, ES ($50/point) → 0.75 contracts, rounded to 1.
Impact: Precise sizing prevents over-leverage, critical for micro contracts like MES.
Stops and Take-Profits:
Fixed: Default stop = 8 points, TP = 16 points (2:1 reward/risk).
ATR-Based: Stop = 1.5x ATR (default), TP = 3x ATR, enabled via use_atr_for_stops.
Logic: Stops set at swing low/high ± stop distance; TPs at 2x stop distance from entry.
Impact: ATR stops adapt to volatility, while fixed stops suit stable markets.
Trailing Stops:
Logic: Activates at 50% of TP distance. Trails at close ± 1.5x ATR (atr_multiplier). Longs: max(trail_stop_long, close - ATR * 1.5); shorts: min(trail_stop_short, close + ATR * 1.5).
Impact: Locks in profits during trends, a game-changer in volatile sessions.
Circuit Breaker:
Logic: Pauses trading if daily drawdown > 5% (daily_drawdown = (max_equity - equity) / max_equity).
Impact: Protects capital during black swan events (e.g., April 27, 2025 ES slippage).
Why It’s Brilliant:
Futures-specific inputs (tick value, multiplier) make it plug-and-play for ES/MES.
Trailing stops and circuit breaker add pro-level safety, rare in off-the-shelf scripts.
Flexible stops (ATR or fixed) suit different trading styles.
4. Trade Entry and Exit Logic
Entries and exits are precise, driven by bull_score/bear_score and protected by drawdown checks.
Entry Conditions:
Long: bull_score ≥ 1.0, no position (position_size <= 0), drawdown < 5% (not pause_trading). Calculates contracts, sets stop at swing low - stop points, TP at 2x stop distance.
Short: bear_score ≥ 1.0, position_size >= 0, drawdown < 5%. Stop at swing high + stop points, TP at 2x stop distance.
Logic: Tracks entry_regime for PNL arrays. Closes opposite positions before entering.
Exit Conditions:
Stop-Loss/Take-Profit: Hits stop or TP (strategy.exit).
Trailing Stop: Activates at 50% TP, trails by ATR * 1.5.
Emergency Exit: Closes if price breaches stop (close < long_stop_price or close > short_stop_price).
Reset: Clears stop/TP prices when flat (position_size = 0).
Why It’s Brilliant:
Score-based entries ensure multi-factor confirmation, filtering out weak signals.
Trailing stops maximize profits in trends, unlike static exits in basic scripts.
Emergency exits add an extra safety layer, critical for futures volatility.
5. DAFE Visuals
The visuals are pure DAFE magic, blending function with cyberpunk flair to make signals intuitive and charts stunning.
Shimmering Bollinger Band Fill:
Display: BB basis (20, white), upper/lower (green/red, 45% transparent). Fill pulses (30–50 alpha) by regime, with glow (60–95 alpha) near bands (close ≥ 0.995x upper or ≤ 1.005x lower).
Purpose: Highlights volatility and key levels with a futuristic glow.
Visuals make complex regimes and signals instantly clear, even for newbies.
Pulsing effects and regime-specific colors add a DAFE signature, setting it apart from generic scripts.
BB glow emphasizes tradeable levels, enhancing decision-making.
Chart Background (Regime Heatmap):
Green — Trending Market: Strong, sustained price movement in one direction. The market is in a trend phase—momentum follows through.
Orange — Range-Bound: Market is consolidating or moving sideways, with no clear up/down trend. Great for mean reversion setups.
Red — Volatile Regime: High volatility, heightened risk, and larger/faster price swings—trade with caution.
Gray — Quiet/Low Volatility: Market is calm and inactive, with small moves—often poor conditions for most strategies.
Navy — Other/Neutral: Regime is uncertain or mixed; signals may be less reliable.
Bollinger Bands Glow (Dynamic Fill):
Neon Red Glow — Warning!: Price is near or breaking above the upper band; momentum is overstretched, watch for overbought conditions or reversals.
Bright Green Glow — Opportunity!: Price is near or breaking below the lower band; market could be oversold, prime for bounce or reversal.
Trend Green Fill — Trending Regime: Fills between bands with green when the market is trending, showing clear momentum.
Gold/Yellow Fill — Range Regime: Fills with gold/aqua in range conditions, showing the market is sideways/oscillating.
Magenta/Red Fill — Volatility Spike: Fills with vivid magenta/red during highly volatile regimes.
Blue Fill — Neutral/Quiet: A soft blue glow for other or uncertain market states.
Moving Averages:
Display: Blue fast EMA (20), red slow EMA (50), 2px.
Purpose: Shows trend direction, with trend_dir requiring ATR-scaled spread.
Dynamic SL/TP Lines:
Display: Pulsing colors (red SL, green TP for Trending; yellow/orange for Range, etc.), 3px, with pulse_alpha for shimmer.
Purpose: Tracks stops/TPs in real-time, color-coded by regime.
6. Dual Dashboards
Two dashboards deliver real-time insights, making the strat a quant command center.
Bottom-Left Metrics Dashboard (2x13):
Metrics: Mode (Active/Paused), trend (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral), ATR, ATR avg, volume spike (YES/NO), RSI (value + Oversold/Overbought/Neutral), HTF RSI, HTF trend, last signal (Buy/Sell/None), regime, bull score.
Display: Black (29% transparent), purple title, color-coded (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Purpose: Consolidates market context and signal strength.
Top-Right Position Dashboard (2x7):
Metrics: Regime, position side (Long/Short/None), position PNL ($), SL, TP, daily PNL ($).
Display: Black (29% transparent), purple title, color-coded (lime for Long, red for Short).
Purpose: Tracks live trades and profitability.
Why It’s Brilliant:
Dual dashboards cover market context and trade status, a rare feature.
Color-coding and concise metrics guide beginners (e.g., green “Buy” = go).
Real-time PNL and SL/TP visibility empower disciplined trading.
7. Performance Tracking
Logic: Arrays (regime_pnl_long/short, regime_win/loss_long/short) track PNL and win/loss by regime (1–5). Updated on trade close (barstate.isconfirmed).
Purpose: Prepares for future adaptive thresholds (e.g., adjust bull_score min based on regime performance).
Why It’s Brilliant: Lays the groundwork for self-optimizing logic, a quant edge over static scripts.
