Narrow Range + Inside Day, Short Only Strategy (by ChartArt)This short only strategy determines when there is both a NR7 (narrow range 7, a trading day in which the range is narrower than any of the previous six days), plus a inside day (high of the current day is lower than the high of the previous day and the low of the current day is higher than the low of the previous day) both on the same trading day and enters a short trade when the close is lower than the open and the slope of the simple moving average is downwards, too.
The strategy closes the short trade next time the daily close is lower than the open in any of the next trading days. In addition the NR7ID can be colored (the color is red when the close is lower that day than the open, else the color is green) and the SMA can be drawn with a color based on the direction of the SMA slope. To fine-tune the strategy it is highly recommended to change the period length of the SMA, which determines if the measured SMA slope is downwards or not. In this version 1.1 I made a small change to long only version. By default only the bearish NR7ID days are colored.

This script is a hybrid technical analysis tool designed to identify trends and spot potential reversals. It employs a consensus-based system that uses multiple smoothed, Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA) to generate both trend-following and counter-trend signals.
Understanding the Indicator's Components
The indicator plots a main line on a separate pane and provides visual alerts directly on the chart.
The Main Line: This line represents a smoothed average of momentum scores derived from multiple VWMAs. Its direction and value are the foundation of the analysis.
Signal Generation: The tool provides two distinct types of signals:
Trend Signals: These trend-following signals ("⬆️Long" / "⬇️Short") activate when the indicator's consensus reaches a pre-set strength threshold, indicating sustained momentum in one direction.
Reversal Signals: These counter-trend alerts ("📈Oversold" / "📉Overbought") trigger when the main line breaks a previous period's level, hinting at exhaustion and a potential short-term reversal.
Visual Alerts:
Colored Background: The indicator's background highlights during strong trend signals for added visual emphasis.
Chart Shapes: Small circles appear on the main chart to mark where potential reversals are detected.
Colored Candles: You can choose to color the price candles to reflect the current trend signal.
Information Table: A compact table provides an at-a-glance summary of all currently active signals.
Suggested Use and Interpretation
Here are a few ways to incorporate this indicator into your analysis:
Following the Trend: Use the "Long" or "Short" trend signals to align your trades with the prevailing market momentum.
Spotting Reversals: Watch for "Oversold" or "Overbought" reversal signals, often accompanied by chart shapes, to identify potential market turning points.
Combining Signals: Use the primary trend signal for context and look for reversal signals that may indicate a pullback within the larger trend, potentially offering favorable entry points.
Customization Options:
You can tailor the indicator's behavior and appearance through several settings:
Core Settings: Adjust the Calculation Period and Smooth Length to make the main line more or less responsive to price movements.
Signal Thresholds: Fine-tune the Long threshold and Short threshold to control how easily trend signals are triggered.
Visual Settings: Toggle various visual elements like the indicator band, candle coloring, and the information table on or off.
Table Settings: Customize where the information table appears and its size to suit your chart layout.

Total Points Range by exp3rtsThis indicator measures and displays the true intraday movement of a market by approximating tick-level activity using 1-second data aggregation. Instead of only looking at net candle movement, it sums every price change during a session, giving traders a more accurate picture of market effort and volatility.
Total Points Moved (TPM) – Captures the full distance traveled by price, not just the net gain/loss.
Bullish vs. Bearish Movement – Separates upward and downward moves so you can see who dominated the session.
Custom Sessions – Define your own session start/end times and time zone for precise tracking.
End-of-Session Summary – Automatically plots a label at session completion with totals for TPM, bullish, and bearish movement.
Visual Session Highlighting – Background shading makes it easy to see when the chosen session is active.
This tool is useful for:
Understanding the true effort vs. result of price movement
Comparing volatility across sessions
Identifying whether bulls or bears contributed more to market swings
Supporting order flow and tick-based trading strategies
Opening Range BoxThis indicator, called the "Opening Range Box," is a visual tool that helps you track the start of key trading sessions like London and New York (or whatever session you set).
It does three main things:
Finds the Daily 'First Move': It automatically calculates the High and Low reached during the first 30 minutes (or whatever time you set) of each defined session.
Draws a Box: It immediately draws a colored, transparent box on your chart from the moment the session starts. The top of the box is the OR High, and the bottom is the OR Low. This box acts as a clear reference for the session's initial boundaries.
Extends the Levels: After the initial 30 minutes are over, the box stops growing vertically (it locks in the OR High/Low) but continues to stretch out horizontally for the rest of the trading session. This allows you to easily see how the price reacts to the opening levels throughout the day.
In short: It visually highlights the most important price levels established at the very beginning of the major market sessions.

Kalman Adjusted Average True Range [BackQuant]Kalman Adjusted Average True Range
A volatility-aware trend baseline that fuses a Kalman price estimate with ATR “rails” to create a smooth, adaptive guide for entries, exits, and trailing risk.
Built on my original Kalman
This indicator is based on my original Kalman Price Filter:
That core smoother is used here to estimate the “true” price path, then blended with ATR to control step size and react proportionally to market noise.
What it plots
Kalman ATR Line the main baseline that turns up/down with the filtered trend.
Optional Moving Average of the Kalman ATR a secondary line for confluence (SMA/Hull/EMA/WMA/DEMA/RMA/LINREG/ALMA).
Candle Coloring (optional) paint bars by the baseline’s current direction.
Why combine Kalman + ATR?
Kalman reduces measurement noise and produces a stable path without the lag of heavy MAs.
ATR rails scale the baseline’s step to current volatility, so it’s calm in chop and more responsive in expansion.
The result is a single, intelligible line you can trade around: slope-up = constructive; slope-down = caution.
How it works (plain English)
Each bar, the Kalman filter updates an internal state (tunable via Process Noise , Measurement Noise , and Filter Order ) to estimate the underlying price.
An ATR band (Period × Factor) defines the allowed per-bar adjustment. The baseline cannot “jump” beyond those rails in one step.
A direction flip is detected when the baseline’s slope changes sign (upturn/downturn), and alerts are provided for both.
Typical uses
Trend confirmation Trade in the baseline’s direction; avoid fading a firmly rising/falling line.
Pullback timing Look for entries when price mean-reverts toward a rising baseline (or exits on tags of a falling one).
Trailing risk Use the baseline as a dynamic guide; many traders set stops a small buffer beyond it (e.g., a fraction of ATR).
Confluence Enable the MA overlay of the Kalman ATR; alignment (baseline above its MA and rising) supports continuation.
Inputs & what they do
Calculation
Kalman Price Source which price the filter tracks (Close by default).
Process Noise how quickly the filter can adapt. Higher = more responsive (but choppier).
Measurement Noise how much you distrust raw price. Higher = smoother (but slower to turn).
Filter Order (N) depth of the internal state array. Higher = slightly steadier behavior.
Kalman ATR
Period ATR lookback. Shorter = snappier; longer = steadier.
Factor scales the allowed step per bar. Larger factors permit faster drift; smaller factors clamp movement.
Confluence (optional)
MA Type & Period compute an MA on the Kalman ATR line , not on price.
Sigma (ALMA) if ALMA is selected, this input controls the curve’s shape. (Ignored for other MA types.)
Visuals
Plot Kalman ATR toggle the main line.
Paint Candles color bars by up/down slope.
Colors choose long/short hues.
Signals & alerts
Trend Up baseline turns upward (slope crosses above 0).
Alert: “Kalman ATR Trend Up”
Trend Down baseline turns downward (slope crosses below 0).
Alert: “Kalman ATR Trend Down”
These are state flips , not “price crossovers,” so you avoid many one-bar head-fakes.
How to start (fast presets)
Swing (daily/4H) ATR Period 7–14, Factor 0.5–0.8, Process Noise 0.02–0.05, Measurement Noise 2–4, N = 3–5.
Intraday (5–15m) ATR Period 5–7, Factor 0.6–1.0, Process Noise 0.05–0.10, Measurement Noise 2–3, N = 3–5.
Slow assets / FX raise Measurement Noise or ATR Period for calmer lines; drop Factor if the baseline feels too jumpy.
Reading the line
Rising & curving upward momentum building; consider long bias until a clear downturn.
Flat & choppy regime uncertainty; many traders stand aside or tighten risk.
Falling & accelerating distribution lower; short bias until a clean upturn.
Practical playbook
Continuation entries After a Trend Up alert, wait for a minor pullback toward the baseline; enter on evidence the line keeps rising.
Exit/reduce If long and the baseline flattens then turns down, trim or exit; reverse logic for shorts.
Filters Add a higher-timeframe check (e.g., only take longs when the daily Kalman ATR is rising).
Stops Place stops just beyond the baseline (e.g., baseline − x% ATR for longs) to avoid “tag & reverse” noise.
Notes
This is a guide to state and momentum, not a guarantee. Combine with your process (structure, volume, time-of-day) for decisions.
Settings are asset/timeframe dependent; start with the presets and nudge Process/Measurement Noise until the baseline “feels right” for your market.
Summary
Kalman ATR takes the noise-reduction of a Kalman price estimate and couples it with volatility-scaled movement to produce a clean, adaptive baseline. If you liked the original Kalman Price Filter (), this is its trend-trading cousin purpose-built for cleaner state flips, intuitive trailing, and confluence with your existing
