MARS - Moving Average Relative StrengthThe original idea from this script is from the script " Percentage Relative Strength " by dman103 . The original script compared a symbol to an index by their everyday percentage change. The symbol percentage was subtracted from percentage change of the index, & the results were then smoothed by moving averages.
Instead of daily percentage changes, this script directly calculates relative strength via a moving average. We call this simpler approach as MARS (Moving Average Relative Strength) .
MARS compares a symbol to the index by making use of the price's distance from a moving average. By default, we compare the distance from the 50-day simple moving average of the stock vs that of the index. Both the type & the length of the moving average is customisable.
Background color indicates the index being above or below its moving average.
Blue background: index is above its moving average
Pink background: index is below its moving average
The histogram indicates whether the stock is under-performing or out-performing the index.
Up-bars : stock is out-performing the index i.e. between the stock & the index, the difference between the distance to/from the 50-day moving average is a positive value.
Down-bars : stock is under-performing the index i.e. between the stock & the index, the difference between the distance to/from the 50-day moving average is a negative value.
The color of the histogram indicates the type of out-performance or under-performance. There can be a total of 6 such colors:
Relative out-performance : both index & stock are bearish, but stock is less bearish. The script prints light green up-bars on a pink background.
Gross out-performance : both index & stock are bullish, but stock is more bullish. The script prints green up-bars on a blue background.
Absolute out-performance : index is bearish, but stock is bullish! The script prints blue up-bars on a pink background.
Relative under-performance : both index & stock are bullish, but stock is less bullish. The script prints light red bars on a blue background.
Gross under-performance : both index & stock are bearish, but stock is more bearish. The script prints dark red bars on a pink background.
Absolute under-performance : index is bullish, but stock is bearish! The script prints black down-bars on a blue background.
Additional customisation options:
Paint bars option changes the bar colors to mirror the histogram colors.
Easy colors option just changes the histogram colors to either blue or pink, indicating out-performance or under-performance, respectively. This is when the trader does not wish to demarcate between the above-mentioned 6 conditions.

All TimeFrame OscillatorsI have always fighted to understand the market direction because it looks different on different timeframes.
I wanted an indicator where I can see all the different timeframes at once.
This indicator shows already existing oscillators but not only in the current chart's timeframe, but all the most important higer timeframes at once.
I have started with the stoch, then added as many oscillators as I could.
Experimenting with this I have saw that confluence of 4H 1D and 1W Stoch can be very interesting and can highlight higher timeframe take profit areas and sometimes major tops/bottoms.
Also bounces can be interesting when a lower timeframe stoch is bounced or rejected from a higher one.
Oscillators:
Stoch - Stochastic Oscillator
SMI - Stochastic Momentum Index
Rsi - Relative Strength Index
StochRsi - Stochastic RSI
WaveTrend - Vumanchu alias Market Cypher Wave Trend line
CCI - Commodity Channel Index
CCIStoch - Stochastic CCI
Williams Percent Range - Williams %R
Norm. MACD - Normalized Moving Average Convergence Divergence
Norm. MACD Hist - Normalized MACD Histogramm
PVT - Normalized Price Volume Trend
MFI - Money Flow Index
CMF - Chaikin Money Flow
Chande Momentum - Chande Momentum
Volume - Normalized Volume
CandleValue - Vumanchu alias Market Cypher MoneyFlow
BBWP - Bollinger Band Width Percentile
Line Type
Smooth: lines are smoothed, but the actualy not closed values are not shown
Step: Step lines, the actually open timeframes are calculated as they closed at the current values
Plot Oscillator or it's Slope:
its possible to not plot the oscillator but it's slope
Print dots when:
Cross Up/Down oversold/overbougt level - best for most oscillators. for example when Stoch crosses above 20 or below 80
Cross os/ob and the one higher TF is about to cross - when it's crosses beolw 80 and the higher timeframe oscillator is still above ans sloping down
Cross above/below middle line - for example on RSI being above or below 50 can be interesting
Print triangles when:
All Slope Match - all visible timeframe lines are pointing up or down at the same time
All above/belove middle line - all visible lines are above or belove the middle line
All above/belove middle line and slope match - like the previous one and the slope direction is the same
All above/below oversold/overbougt - all lines are above or below os/ ob. this is the default. it can be a very important confluence
Lower TF in order - 5, 15, 30, 60 minute timeframes are in order.
Higher TF in order - 4H 1D 1W in order (like 4H above 1D abd 1D above 1W). can be interesting at RSI
4H-1D in order - 4H 1D in order .
Print triangles
Print all triangles - print all triangles when the condition is met
Print only first triangles - only show when the condition starts to met
Print only last triangles - small triangles when the condition met first, large when last. tis is the default.
Timeframes to show:
You can turn on/off different timeframs to show or not from the list below:
1m 5m 15m 30m 1H 4H D 5D W M
This is for experimenting/ understanding the market direction on multiple timeframes at once.
Don't take it's signals (and any other indicator's) as exact trade signals. use it as confirmation instead.
Any comments, insights, ideas are welcome.
Moving Average Convergence Divergence with Rate of Change
Purpose - MACD is an awesome indicator. However, I felt I could improve the existing MACD indicator by also letting it visualize the rate of change (ROC) of the histogram (whether rate of change is increasing or decreasing - just like a derivative). By doing so, the indicator will better show the rate of change of the trend.
How It's Done - To the original MACD indicator, I have added a bit more conditional statements that automatically calculates the ROC in MACD histogram and visualizes through 8 different colors.
Interpretation - While the histogram is above 0, darker color indicates the stronger up trend, and lighter the color, weaker the up trend and potentially indicates the bears are overtaking, and vice versa for the case where the histogram is below 0.
R-Smart - Relative Strength On observing the market for years I learned that Relative Strength will help us in staying invested in strong bullish stocks (relative to primary indices of your country, in my case it's Nifty 50 for India). Once you identify a strong stock, it's important to know if the stock is trending and is in momentum. To identify, trends and momentum, I used ADX and MACD indicators respectively as part of the R-Smart.
In R-Smart, I used Relative Strength primarily to plot the chart, if the Histogram is positive (greater than 0) then the security is bullish. But then how do we know that it's in trend and having momentum. Well the below color code will help you identify them
1. Histogram in Green : Strong Bullish
2. Histogram in Blue : Weak Bullish
3. Histogram in Orange: Bearish
Apart from the above indicator, I would like to use Super Trend to know the immediate support/resistances on the chart.

Wave Trend OscillatorThis is a very standard version of the Wave Trend Oscillator.
The Channel and Average values are displayed as lines, most people display them as areas.
The Channel and Average difference is displayed as a histogram, most people display it as a tiny noisy area.
I was unable to find a standard version of the Wave Trend Oscillator.
The colorful hyped up versions of this indicator made me feel like a clown while using them.
I have essentially copied the style of the MACD with this indicator, to keep things professional.
With this WTO, you can change the timeframe and source.
You can also change the histogram average length and multiplier, making it usable.
The typical way that people display the histogram is completely unusable and just for appearance.
Now it does a decent job showing when the momentum of the WTO's downward movement is slowing down, just like how the MACD histogram works.
This indicator is essentially a normalized MACD, though they are calculated differently.
The Wave Trend Oscillator is useful for spotting/monitoring changed in mid-trend momentum.
In my experience, divergence in this indicator is a strong signal.
If the MACD is too slow for you, then this is a great alternative; without all the extra fluff people usually add to it.
MTF ComboMiddle stochastic is the HTF stochastic of price. The color coding indicates the trend in even higher timeframe.
- The graph on top is the stochastic of ATR (with HTF and current one with RSI and macd histogram).
- The green graph at the bottom is the stochastic of the OBV (with HTF and current one with RSI and macd histogram).
- Purple histogram and area underneath the mid-stochsatic are the macd histogram and the stochastic RSI.
- The dots in the middle are determined by the combined score of all
BTC Coinbase PremiumThis script is base on another script by oh 92.
It basically shows you where the price of Bitcoin (in USD) on Coinbase trades at a premium against an average of several futures exchanges.
Coinbase premium shows spot interest on bitcoin which happens either when futures are shorting heavily but spot holds the price up (often bullish especially when price is at a support level).
Negative premium shows that futures are leading price during an uptrend or spot is leading price during a downtrend.
Strong positive premium is often considered bullish.
Strong negative premium is often considered bearish even if price goes up.
The histogramm coinbase premium vs an average of several futures exchanges (Bitmex, Bitfinex, Binance, FTX, Phemex and Bitstamp).
The line diagramm shows coinbase premium vs Bybit.
In contrast to the script by oh92 this script uses different exchages (especially Bybit as a lot of former Bitmex traders changed to Bybit during september and october 2020).
All values are in percent because differences in USD only are not suitable for historic prices. This means if CB-premium is -0.1 then futures trade 0.1% lower than coinbase.
MACD with Lines - ChartWhat is MACD with Lines - Chart and why do you need it?
I use it for chart analysis to identify key macd /signal levels from which bullish / bearish market structure continues to develop.
Chart means that every Macd /Signal cross above/below the signal lines will be notified on your Chart and not on your MACD Indicator. To see them on your chart please choose "MACD with Lines - Default" in my library.
Once Signal, Macd or the Histogramm cross over or under your upper or lower signal line you will see background colors which you can adjust in the settings menu.
This small indicator is for a larger project which will be uploaded in several days/weeks.

Rules using ( MACD 12 26 Close 9 ):
Place a SELL signal when :
1. Histogram bar turned RED from GREEN
2. Within the previous group of green histogram bars the maximum value reached/passed +5.5
3. MACD fast & slow have values > 0
Place a BUY signal when :
1. Histogram bar turned GREEN from RED
2. Within the previous group of RED histogram bars has maximum value reached/passed -5.0
3. MACD fast & slow have values < 0
Dynamic Dots Dashboard (a Cloud/ZLEMA Composite)The purpose of this indicator is to provide an easy-to-read binary dashboard of where the current price is relative to key dynamic supports and resistances. The concept is simple, if a dynamic s/r is currently acting as a resistance, the indicator plots a dot above the histogram in the red box. If a dynamic s/r is acting as support, a dot is plotted in the green box below.
There are some additional features, but the dot graphs are king.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
KEY:
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Currently the dynamic s/r's being used in the dot plots are:
Ichimoku Cloud:
Tenkan (blue)
Kijun (pink)
Senkou A (red)
Senkou B (green)
ZLEMA (Zero Lag Exponential Moving Average)
99 ZLEMA (lavender)
200 ZLEMA (salmon)
You'll see a dashed line through the middle of the resistances section (red) and supports section (green). Cloud indicators are plotted above the dashed line, and ZLEMA's are below.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
How it Works - Visual
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As stated in the intro - if a dynamic s/r is currently above the current price and acting as a resistance, the indicator plots a dot above the histogram in the red box. If a dynamic s/r is acting as support, a dot is plotted in the green box below. Additionally, there is an optional histogram (default is on) that will further visualize this relationship. The histogram is a simple summation of the resistances above and the supports below.
Here's a visual to assist with what that means. This chart includes all of those dynamic s/r's in the dynamic dot dashboard (the on-chart parts are individually added, not part of this tool).
You can see that as a dynamic support is lost, the corresponding dot is moved from the supports section at the bottom (green), to the resistances section at the top (red). The opposite being true as resistances are being overtaken (broken resistances are moved to the support section (red)). You can see that the raw chart is just... a mess. Which kinda of accentuates one of the key goals of this indicator: to get all that dynamic support info without a mess of a chart like that.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
How To Use It
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
There are a lot of ways to use this information, but the most notable of which is to detect shifts in the market cycle.
For this example, take a look at the dynamic s/r dots in the resistances category (red background). You can see clearly that there are distinctive blocks of high density dots that have clear beginnings and ends. When we transition from a high density of dots to none in resistances, that means we are flipping them as support and entering a bull cycle. On the other hand, when we go from low density of dots as resistances to high density, we're pivoting to a bear cycle. Easy as that, you can quickly detect when market cycles are beginning or ending.
Alternatively, you can add your preferred linear SR's, fibs, etc. to the chart and quickly glance at the dashboard to gauge how dynamic SR's may be contributing to the risk of your trade.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Who It's For
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
New traders: by looking at dot density alone, you can use Dot Dynamics to spot transitionary phases in market cycles.
Experienced traders: keep your charts clean and the information easy to digest.
Developers: I created this originally as a starting point for more complex algos I'm working on. One algo is reading this dot dashboard and taking a position size relative to the s/r's above and below. Another cloud algo is using the results as inputs to spot good setups.
Colored Bars
There is an option (off by default, shown in the headline image above) to fill the bar colors based on how many dynamic s/r's are above or below the current price. This can make things easier for some users, confusing for others. I defaulted them to off as I don't want colors to confuse the primary value proposition of the indicators, which is the dot heat map. You can turn on colored bars in the settings.
One thing to note with the colored bars: they plot the color purely by the dot densities. Random spikes in the gradient colors (i.e. red to lime or green) can be a useful thing to notice, as they commonly occur at places where the price is bouncing between dynamic s/r's and can indicate a paradigm shift in the market cycle.

Timeframes and Assets
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This can be used effectively on all assets (stocks, crypto, forex, etc) and all time frames. As always with any indicator, the higher TF's are generally respected more than lower TF's.
Thanks for checking it out! I've been trading crypto for years and am just now beginning to publish my ideas, secret-sauce scripts and handy tools (like this one). If you enjoyed this indicator and would like to see more, a like and a follow is greatly appreciated 😁.
Indicator: Raschke Compase [xQT5]This is an indicator from a book "Street Smarts—High Probability Short Term Trading Strategies" by L. Raschke & L.Connors.
I made it in histogram style for more comfortable reading chart:
- green histogram is buy signal or buy opportunity;
- red histogram is sell signal or sell opportunity;
- gray histogram is forward moving from last signal.
Enjoy it!
P-MACD by DGTPrice and Moving Averages Convergence/Divergence, shortly named as P-MACD
P-MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between Price and Long-term Moving Average (PMACD), and the relationship between two Moving Averages (MAMACD). P-MACD is composed of two lines, and an histogram, showing price distance (convergence/divergence) to its Long-term MA (PMACD), showing short-term MA distance (convergence/divergence) to long-term MA (MAMACD), and a histogram showing the difference (momentum) between the PMACD and MAMACD
The PMACD is calculated by dividing the Price to Long-term Moving Average (200-period SMA/EMA) and finally smoothed with 9-period SMA/EMA
- PMACD Line Formula : (Price / SlowMovingAverage -1) * 100 and smoothed with 9-period SMA/EMA
The MAMACD is calculated by dividing the Short-term Moving Average (such as 20 SMA/EMA) to the Long-term Moving Average (such as 200-period SMA/EMA)
- MAMACD Line Formula : (FastMovingAverage / SlowMovingAverage -1) * 100
The Histogram is calculated by subscripting PMACD and MAMACD
- Formula : PMACD - MAMACD
Optional
Trend Cloud calculated based on fast and slow version of MAMACD
What to look for:
- Line Crosses : PMACD Line can function as a trigger(signal) for buy and sell signals. Buy when the PMACD crosses above the MAMACD line and sell - or short - when the PMACD crosses below the MAMACD line
- Base Crosses : PMACD and/or MAMACD crosses above or below Baseline is another way to indicate the trend and momentum. MAMACD crosses of Baseline, MAMACD positive or negative, reflects short-term moving average crosses the long-term moving average and similarly, PMACD crosses of BaseLine, PMACD positive or negative, reflects price crosses a long-term moving average
- Momentum : P-MACD helps investors understand whether the bullish or bearish movement in the price is strengthening or weakening displayed with a histogram which graphs the distance between the PMACD and MAMACD. Additionally, upward momentum is confirmed with a bullish crossover, which occurs when PMACD and/or MAMACD crosses above Baseline. Conversely, downward momentum is confirmed with a bearish crossover, which occurs when PMACD and/or MAMACD crosses below Baseline
- Distance : Prices high above the moving average (MA) or low below it are likely to be remedied in the future by a reverse price movement. The more distant the PMACD is above or below its baseline indicates that the distance between the Price and its SMA is growing (regarding PMACD, You may find a detailed article explained in “Price Distance to its MA” indicator by DGT) . Similarly the more distant the MAMACD is above or below its baseline indicates that the distance between the two SMAs is growing
- Trend : A rising P-MACD indicates an uptrend, while a declining P-MACD indicates a downtrend
MACD vs. P-MACD
MACD measures the relationship between two MAs, while the P-MACD measures both the relationship between price and its MA, and the relationship between two MAs. MAMACD Line of P-MACD If set to same moving average type and same lengths as in MACD will produce the same line as MACD line, only values are represented as percentage with MAMACD. Both measure momentum in a market, but, because they measure different factors, they differentiate from each other even if they have similarities in presentation. P-MACD provides additional insights, not only to MA relation but also to Price and MA relation
Warning : Moving Average are calculated based on past prices, so they are lagging. The longer the time period for the moving average, the greater the lag as well as less sensitive to price changes. This study implements usage of 200-period long-term moving average, which implies that the P-MACD will provide insight especially for long-term trades, more suited for long-term trades, usage of P-MACD for short-term trades is recommend with lower timeframes (1H or lower).
Indicators aim to generate a potential signal/indication of an upcoming opportunity, but, the Indicators themselves do not guarantee the future movement of a given financial instrument, and are most useful when used in combination with other techniques.
Trading success is all about following your trading strategy and the indicators should fit within your trading strategy, and not to be traded upon solely

Big Picture 50/200Crazy as this may sound, it took 126 iterations to get something so simple sone right.
Big Picture helps offload some longer-term SMA lines off your chart so you can clutter it up again with some other stuff. It works by comparing SMAs 50 and 200 in histogram form. If the histogram is over the zero-line, 50 is over 200, and vice versa.
The histogram is green when the slope rises, suggesting that 50 is rising relative to 200. When the histogram turns red, 50 is falling.
Some Heikin-Ashi inspired averaging helps smooth the line just a little to help give a better idea as to overall trend.
Klinger Safety ZonesThis indicator is based on the Klinger Volume Oscillator, or KVO. The KVO is pretty cool since it can track long-term changes in money flow (both into and out of a market), as well as respond and predict short term price fluctuations.
The Klinger Oscillator determines the direction (or trend) of money flow based on the high, low, and closing price of the security. It then compares all three values (HLC/3) to the previous period’s values to determine how volume should be factored into the KVO. If the current period’s price is greater than that of the previous period, then volume is added. It is subtracted, however, if the price is less than the previous period. This utilization of volume is what makes it an accurate tracker of money flow and a valuable confirmation indicator. This value is often called volume force or the “trend” line.
A fast and slow EMA of the volume force are then calculated. The fast EMA has a smaller window length, while the slow EMA has a larger window. Traders can adjust the lengths of each EMA in the input option menu, but we chose the standard 55 and 34 period lengths as the default settings. We are finally left with the actual KVO value after subtracting the slow EMA from the fast EMA.
The Klinger Oscillator uses a signal line similar to the MACD and many other indicators. The default length for it is 13, but that length can also be adjusted in the input menu. A shorter length will result in more responsiveness but possibly more false signals and whipsaws.
The Chart and Interpretation:
The histogram shows the KVO series. Remember, since the Oscillator represents the difference between the fast and slow EMA, the KVO is bullish when it is greater than zero and bearish when it is less than zero.
When the KVO is greater than zero, the background on the chart is green, meaning that the trend is bullish and traders should look to go long. On the flip side, the background is red when the KVO is less than zero meaning traders should look to go short.
The aqua line plotted on top of the histogram is the signal line.
Here is a quick summary of the histogram colors:
(if KVO > 0 and KVO > signal)
then (color = teal)
if (KVO > 0 and KVO < signal)
then (color = lime)
if (KVO < 0 and KVO < signal)
then (color = red)
if (KVO < 0 and KVO > signal)
then (color = pink)
Users can choose to have the candles change color to match the KVO histogram color by adjusting the setting in the input menu.
~Happy (and safe) trading~

1D & 4H MACD by mattzab1 Day MACD with a color coded area style histogram, with a black line indicating the 4H histogram with + markers to indicate true 4H crosses.
The black line is the outline of the 4H histogram, with a floating cross above to confirm that it is above 0.
4H histogram settings = 6, 13, 5 MACD. Not a true 4H resolution, but extremely close. Effectively, the black line is actually a 2X speed MACD. I prefer it over a true 4H indication.
RSI/MFI - MTF - Entry signals/Trend colored bars - JD@version=2
This indicator is designed to give early entry signals as well as to follow trend moves, according to different settings.
The indicator shows a histogram of the RSI ro MFI in relation to an ema of the RSI or MFI.
The histogram is then smoothed to give early reversal/entry signals.
The actual RSI/MFI line with oversold/overbought indication can be displayed or omitted, as preferred.
in addition to the RSI/MFI line or as an alternative to it, the background colour can be set to change folowing the RSI/MFI signals.
The timeframe can be chosen. Higher timeframes (eg. 3h) tend to give less false signals.
version 5.
added support for custom Multiple Time Frame selection.
added option for choice of RSI or MFI as base indicator.
added option for price bar coloring according to the indicator. (deselecting "borders" in the "style" tab is recommended)
price bar coloring can be adjusted for different strategies:
1. following the slope of the histogram (for faster entry/exit signals)
2. according to positive or negative histogram (for longer moves)
3. according to pos. or neg. RSI/MFI (for longer term trend holds)
4. uptrend: biased towards faster buy signals and slower sell signals to stay in the uptrend
5. downtrend: biased towards faster sell signals and slower buy signals to stay in the downtrend
A longer timeframe (eg. 3x) is recommended for following trend moves.
try different strategies to see what works better for RSI or MFI.

VIXO - VIX OscillatorVIXO (VIX Oscillator) is a volatility oscillator built from the CBOE Volatility Index (symbol: TVC:VIX). It helps visualize volatility regime shifts by combining a smoothed VIX RSI with a normalized VIX momentum component, plus a VIX histogram that becomes more/less prominent depending on how far VIX is from its moving average. It helps you assess whether market conditions may be approaching rare but powerful squeeze phases.
WHAT THIS INDICATOR PLOTS
1) VIX RSI (cyan line)
- RSI is calculated on the VIX close and then smoothed (SMA) to reduce noise.
- Use it to observe short-term momentum in volatility rather than price.
2) VIX Normalized Momentum (gray line)
- Momentum is measured as ROC (rate of change) of the VIX close.
- That ROC is normalized to a 0–100 scale using a rolling lookback window:
- 50 is the midpoint of the recent momentum range (neutral within the selected window).
- Values near 0/100 indicate momentum near the low/high of that lookback window.
3) VIX Value Bars (histogram)
- Histogram shows the raw VIX value.
- Bar visibility is dynamically adjusted (transparency changes) based on the ratio of VIX to its 21-period SMA:
- When VIX is close to its MA, bars are more transparent.
- When VIX deviates more from its MA (within a capped range), bars become more visible.
- If VIX High is below 30, the script intentionally keeps bars fully transparent to reduce visual clutter.
LEVELS (REFERENCE ONLY)
The horizontal levels are visual guides to help segment oscillator zones. They are not guarantees and should not be treated as standalone trade signals:
- 80: “Panic of Market”
- 60: “VIX says BUY” (label only; not financial advice)
- 50: “Neutral / Momentum Mid”
- 40: “Get Ready”
HOW TO USE
- Apply VIXO to any chart. The indicator always pulls TVC:VIX data, regardless of the chart symbol.
- Typical interpretation:
- Rising VIX RSI and/or rising normalized momentum can indicate increasing volatility pressure.
- Falling readings can indicate volatility easing.
- Compare changes in VIXO with your chart’s price structure, trend filters, or risk management framework.
INPUTS
- RSI Length: RSI period on VIX close (smoothed afterward).
- Momentum Length: ROC period on VIX close.
- Momentum Normalization Lookback: window used to scale ROC into 0–100.
DATA & BEHAVIOR NOTES
- Data source: request.security("TVC:VIX", timeframe.period, OHLC).
- The script does not use lookahead to access future data.
- On realtime bars, values can update while the current bar is forming; historical bars remain fixed once closed.
- Availability of TVC:VIX data depends on your TradingView data access.

## 💡 How to Trade
### Setup 1: Divergence at Zone ⭐ (BEST - 75%+ win rate)
**Entry:**
- Price hits demand/supply zone
- Divergence appears (early or confirmed)
- Double confluence = high probability
**Example (Long):**
```
1. Price drops into green demand zone
2. ⚠️ Early bullish divergence fires
3. Enter long with tight stop below zone
4. Target: POC or next supply zone
```
**Risk/Reward:** 1:3 to 1:5
---
### Setup 2: POC Bounce/Rejection
**Entry:**
- Price approaches POC line
- Wait for reaction (bounce or rejection)
- Enter in direction of reaction
**Long Setup:**
```
1. Price pulls back to POC from above
2. POC acts as support
3. Bullish divergence appears (confirmation)
4. Enter long, stop below POC
```
**Short Setup:**
```
1. Price rallies to POC from below
2. POC acts as resistance
3. Bearish divergence appears
4. Enter short, stop above POC
```
**Risk/Reward:** 1:2 to 1:4
---
### Setup 3: Zone + Profile Confluence
**Entry:**
- Supply/demand zone aligns with thick profile bar
- Shows high CVD activity at that level
- Triple confluence = very high probability
**Example:**
```
1. Supply zone at 26,100
2. Profile shows heavy selling at 26,100
3. Price rallies to 26,100
4. Bearish divergence appears
5. Enter short
```
**Risk/Reward:** 1:4 to 1:6
---
### Setup 4: Early Warning Scalp ⚡
**Entry (Aggressive):**
- ⚠️ Early warning fires
- Price at zone or POC
- Enter immediately
- Tight stop (1-2 ATR)
**Management:**
```
- Take 50% profit at 1:1
- Move stop to breakeven
- 🔻 Confirmed signal → Trail stop
- Exit rest at target
```
**Risk/Reward:** 1:1.5 to 1:2
**Trades/day:** 3-8
---
### Setup 5: Multi-Timeframe (Advanced)
**Confirmation Required:**
```
Higher TF (1H):
- Confirmed divergence
- At major POC or zone
Lower TF (15m):
- Early warning triggers
- Entry with better timing
```
**Benefits:**
- HTF gives direction
- LTF gives entry
- Best of both worlds
**Risk/Reward:** 1:3 to 1:5

**More Signals:**
```
↓ Pivot Right: 6-7
↓ Early Warning Right: 2
↓ Min Bars Between: 25-30
↓ Min CVD Diff: 2-3%
↓ Min Absorption Ratio: 1.8
```
### Too Many False Signals?
**Stricter Filters:**
```
↑ Pivot Right: 12-15
↑ Min Bars Between: 60
↑ Min CVD Diff: 8-10%
↑ Min Absorption Ratio: 2.5
↓ Max Zones: 4-5
```
### POC Not Making Sense?
**Adjust POC Lookback:**
```
If too high: Increase to 400-500
If too low: Increase to 400-500
If jumping around: Increase to 500+
→ Longer lookback = more stable POC
```

Volatility Squeeze Pro [JOAT]
Volatility Squeeze Pro — Advanced Volatility Compression Analysis System
This indicator addresses a specific analytical challenge in volatility analysis: how to identify periods when different volatility measurements show compression relationships that may indicate potential energy buildup in the market. It combines two distinct volatility calculation methods—standard deviation-based bands and ATR-based channels—with a momentum oscillator to provide comprehensive volatility state analysis.
Why This Combination Provides Unique Analytical Value
Traditional volatility indicators typically focus on single measurements, but markets exhibit different types of volatility that require different analytical approaches:
1. **Closing Price Volatility** (Standard Deviation): Measures how much closing prices deviate from their average
2. **Trading Range Volatility** (ATR): Measures the actual high-to-low trading ranges
3. **Directional Momentum**: Measures where price sits within its recent range
The problem with using these individually:
- Standard deviation alone doesn't account for intraday volatility
- ATR alone doesn't consider closing price clustering
- Momentum alone doesn't provide volatility context
- No single measurement captures the complete volatility picture
This indicator's originality lies in creating a comprehensive volatility analysis system that:
**Identifies Volatility Compression**: When closing price volatility contracts inside trading range volatility, it suggests potential energy buildup
**Provides Momentum Context**: Shows directional bias during compression periods
**Offers Multi-Dimensional Analysis**: Combines three different analytical approaches into one coherent system
**Delivers Real-Time Assessment**: Continuously monitors the relationship between different volatility types
Technical Innovation and Originality
While individual components (Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, Linear Regression) are standard, the innovation lies in:
1. **Volatility Relationship Detection**: The mathematical comparison between standard deviation bands and ATR channels creates a unique compression identification system
2. **Integrated Momentum Analysis**: Linear regression-based momentum calculation provides directional context specifically during volatility compression periods
3. **Multi-State Visualization**: The indicator provides clear visual encoding of different volatility states (compressed vs. normal) with momentum direction
4. **Adaptive Threshold System**: The squeeze detection automatically adapts to different instruments and timeframes without manual calibration
How the Components Work Together Analytically
The three components create a comprehensive volatility analysis framework:
**Standard Deviation Component**: Measures closing price dispersion around the mean
float bbBasis = ta.sma(close, bbLength)
float bbDev = bbMult * ta.stdev(close, bbLength)
float bbUpper = bbBasis + bbDev
float bbLower = bbBasis - bbDev
**ATR Channel Component**: Measures actual trading range volatility
float kcBasis = ta.ema(close, kcLength)
float kcRange = ta.atr(atrLength)
float kcUpper = kcBasis + kcRange * kcMult
float kcLower = kcBasis - kcRange * kcMult
**Squeeze Detection Logic**: Identifies when closing price volatility compresses within trading range volatility
bool squeezeOn = bbLower > kcLower and bbUpper < kcUpper
// This condition indicates closing prices are clustering more tightly
// than the typical trading range would suggest
**Momentum Context Component**: Provides directional bias during compression
float highestHigh = ta.highest(high, momLength)
float lowestLow = ta.lowest(low, momLength)
float momentum = ta.linreg(close - math.avg(highestHigh, lowestLow), momLength, 0)
float momSmooth = ta.sma(momentum, smoothLength)
The analytical relationship creates a system where:
- Squeeze detection identifies WHEN volatility compression occurs
- Momentum analysis shows WHERE price is positioned during compression
- Combined analysis provides both timing and directional context
How the Volatility Comparison Works
The indicator compares two volatility measurements:
Standard Deviation Bands
These measure how much closing prices deviate from their average. When prices cluster tightly around the average, the bands contract.
// Standard deviation bands calculation
float bbBasis = ta.sma(close, bbLength)
float bbDev = bbMult * ta.stdev(close, bbLength)
float bbUpper = bbBasis + bbDev
float bbLower = bbBasis - bbDev
ATR-Based Channels
These measure volatility using Average True Range—the typical distance between high and low prices. They respond to the actual trading range rather than closing price dispersion.
// ATR-based channels calculation
float kcBasis = ta.ema(close, kcLength)
float kcRange = ta.atr(atrLength)
float kcUpper = kcBasis + kcRange * kcMult
float kcLower = kcBasis - kcRange * kcMult
The Squeeze Condition
A "squeeze" is detected when the standard deviation bands are completely contained within the ATR channels:
// Squeeze detection
bool squeezeOn = bbLower > kcLower and bbUpper < kcUpper
This condition indicates that closing price volatility has compressed relative to the overall trading range.
The Momentum Component
The momentum oscillator measures where price sits relative to its recent high-low range, using linear regression for smoothing:
// Momentum calculation
float highestHigh = ta.highest(high, momLength)
float lowestLow = ta.lowest(low, momLength)
float momentum = ta.linreg(close - math.avg(highestHigh, lowestLow), momLength, 0)
float momSmooth = ta.sma(momentum, smoothLength)
Positive values indicate price is above the midpoint of its recent range; negative values indicate below.
Why Display Both Together
The squeeze detection shows WHEN volatility is compressed. The momentum reading shows the current directional bias of price within that compression. Together, they provide two pieces of information:
1. Is volatility currently compressed? (squeeze status)
2. Where is price leaning within the current range? (momentum)
These are observations about current conditions, not predictions about future movement.

Important Limitations and Realistic Expectations
Volatility compression detection is a mathematical relationship between calculations—it does not predict future price movements
Many compression periods do not result in significant price expansion or directional moves
Momentum direction during compression does not reliably indicate future breakout direction
This indicator analyzes current and historical volatility conditions only—it cannot predict future volatility
False signals are common—not every squeeze leads to tradeable price movement
Different parameter settings will produce different compression detection sensitivity
Market conditions, news events, and fundamental factors often override technical volatility patterns
No volatility indicator can predict the timing, direction, or magnitude of future price movements
This tool should be used as one component of comprehensive market analysis
Appropriate Use Cases
This indicator is designed for:
- Volatility state analysis and monitoring
- Educational study of volatility relationships
- Multi-dimensional volatility assessment
- Supplementary analysis alongside other technical tools
- Understanding market compression/expansion cycles
This indicator is NOT designed for:
- Standalone trading signal generation
- Guaranteed breakout prediction
- Automated trading system triggers
- Market timing precision
- Replacement of fundamental analysis
Understanding Volatility Analysis Limitations
Volatility analysis, while useful for understanding market conditions, has inherent limitations:
- Past volatility patterns do not guarantee future patterns
- Compression periods can extend much longer than expected
- Expansion periods may be brief and insufficient for trading
- External factors (news, fundamentals) often override technical patterns
- Different markets and timeframes exhibit different volatility characteristics

Vector Trinity indicator II: [Bottom: TTM Squeeze]**1. Introduction: The Engine of the System**
This indicator is **Part 2** of the "Vector Trinity" trading system. While Part I (Structure) defines *where* the price is, **Part II (Impulse)** defines *when* the move will happen and *how strong* it is.
It represents the **Time Dimension** of the system, focusing on momentum ignition and energy release.
* **I: Structure:** Spatial boundaries.
* **II: Impulse:** **Momentum velocity & Squeeze timing (Current Indicator).**
* **III: Flow:** Capital validation.
**2. Core Logic: Linear Regression Momentum**
Unlike standard momentum indicators (like MACD) which are based on Moving Averages and often lag significantly, **Vector Trinity II** utilizes **Linear Regression** on price deviations.
* **Math:** It calculates the distance between the price and the mean, then runs a linear regression to determine the angle of attack.
* **Benefit:** This provides a near-instantaneous reading of market "Velocity" and "Acceleration," reducing lag and allowing traders to see the turn before price fully commits.
**3. The "Squeeze" Mechanics (The Dots)**
The central line features dots that indicate the volatility state of the market:
* **🔴 Red Dot (Squeeze ON):** The Bollinger Bands have moved inside the Keltner Channels. Volatility is critically low. The market is storing energy like a compressed spring. **Action:** Wait. Do not trade yet.
* **🟢 Green Dot (Squeeze Fired):** The Bands have popped out of the Channels. The energy is releasing. **Action:** This is the "Ignition" signal. Look at the histogram color for direction.
**4. The 4-Color Momentum System**
The histogram bars are color-coded to tell the full story of the trend's lifecycle, not just direction:
* **Bullish Territory (Above 0):**
* **🟦 Cyan (Light Blue):** **Bullish Acceleration.** Buyers are aggressive. Momentum is increasing. (Best for entry).
* **🔷 Blue (Dark Blue):** **Bullish Deceleration.** Buyers are tired. Momentum is fading. (Prepare to take profit).
* **Bearish Territory (Below 0):**
* **🟥 Red:** **Bearish Acceleration.** Sellers are aggressive. Momentum is increasing. (Best for shorting).
* **🟨 Yellow:** **Bearish Deceleration.** Sellers are exhausted. Momentum is recovering towards zero. (Warning: Trend potential reversal).
**5. How to Use**
* **Step 1:** Look for **Red Dots** on the zero line. This identifies a high-potential setup building up.
* **Step 2:** Wait for the **First Green Dot**. This is the "Squeeze Fired" signal.
* **Step 3:** Confirm with the **Histogram Color**.
* If Green Dot + **Cyan Bar** = Long Signal.
* If Green Dot + **Red Bar** = Short Signal.
* **Advanced:** Use the **Yellow Bars** as an early warning to exit short positions before price actually reverses.
**Settings:**
* **Length:** 20 (Standard calculation period).
* **BB/KC Mult:** 2.0 / 1.5 (Standard ratios to define the Squeeze).
* **Smoothing:** Enabled (Default 3) to reduce noise and provide clearer color transitions.

**1. 简介:系统的核心引擎**
本指标是“矢量三位一体”交易系统的 **第二部分**。如果说第一部分 (Structure) 定义了价格*在哪里*,那么 **第二部分 (Impulse)** 则定义了行情*何时*启动以及力度*有多强*。
它代表了系统的 **时间维度**,专注于动能的点火与能量释放。
* **I: Structure 结构:** 空间边界。
* **II: Impulse 脉冲:** **动能速度与挤压时机(本指标)。**
* **III: Flow 流向:** 资金验证。
**2. 核心逻辑:线性回归动能**
传统的动能指标(如 MACD)通常基于移动平均线,存在显著的滞后性。**Vector Trinity II** 采用了基于价格偏离度的 **Linear Regression (线性回归)** 算法。
* **数学原理:** 它计算价格与均值的距离,并通过回归分析确定攻击的角度。
* **优势:** 这提供了几乎零滞后的市场“速度”与“加速度”读数,允许交易者在价格完全反转之前看到动能的拐点。
**3. “挤压”机制 (圆点信号)**
0轴上的圆点指示了市场的波动率状态:
* **🔴 红点 (Squeeze ON):** 布林带完全进入了肯特纳通道内部。波动率极低。市场像被压缩的弹簧一样在积蓄能量。**操作:** 等待,不要急于进场。
* **🟢 绿点 (Squeeze Fired):** 布林带扩张冲出通道。能量开始释放。**操作:** 这是“点火”信号。观察柱状图颜色以确定方向。
**4. 四色动能战术系统**
柱状图通过四种颜色讲述了趋势完整的生命周期,而不仅仅是涨跌:
* **多头区域 (0轴上方):**
* **🟦 青色 (Cyan):** **多头加速。** 买盘积极,动能增强。(最佳进场期)
* **🔷 蓝色 (Blue):** **多头减速。** 买盘疲惫,动能衰减。(准备止盈)
* **空头区域 (0轴下方):**
* **🟥 红色 (Red):** **空头加速。** 卖盘积极,动能增强。(最佳做空期)
* **🟨 黄色 (Yellow):** **空头减速。** 卖盘力竭,动能向0轴修复。(警告:趋势可能反转/抄底信号)
**5. 使用方法**
* **第一步:** 寻找0轴上的 **红点**。这标志着一个高爆发潜力的机会正在酝酿。
* **第二步:** 等待 **第一个绿点** 出现。这是“挤压释放/点火”的信号。
* **第三步:** 结合 **柱状图颜色** 确认。
* 绿点 + **青色柱** = 做多信号。
* 绿点 + **红色柱** = 做空信号。
* **进阶用法:** 利用 **黄色柱** 作为空单止盈的先行指标,往往在价格反弹之前,动能就已经变黄了。
**参数设置:**
* **Length (周期):** 20 (标准计算周期)。
* **BB/KC Mult (倍数):** 2.0 / 1.5 (定义挤压状态的标准比率)。
* **Smoothing (平滑):** 开启 (默认3) 以减少噪音,提供更平滑的颜色转换体验。
