ALMA Trend DirectionHere is a very simple tool that uses the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average(ALMA). The ALMA is based on a normal distribution and is a reliable moving average due to its ability to reduce lag while still keeping a high degree of smoothness.
Input Options:
-Offset : Value in range {0,1} that adjusts the curve of the Gaussian Distribution. A higher value will result in higher responsiveness but lower smoothness. A lower value will mean higher smoothness but less responsiveness.
-Length : The lookback window for the ALMA calculation.
-Sigma : Defines the sharpe of the curve coefficients.
I find that this indicator is best used with a longer length and a 4 Hour timeframe. Overall, its purpose is to help identify the direction of a trend and determine whether a security is in an uptrend or a downtrend. For this purpose, it is best to use a lower offset value since we are looking to identify long-term, significant price movement rather than small fluctuations.
The Chart:
The ALMA is plotted as the aqua and pink alternating line. It is aqua when bullish and pink when bearish.
The low price for each candle is then compared to the ALMA. If the low is greater than the ALMA, then there is a bullish trend and the area between the candles and ALMA is filled green. The area between the ALMA and candles is filled red when the low price is less than the ALMA.
The difference between the slow ALMA and candles can reveal a lot about the current market state. If there is a significant green gap between the two, then we know that there is a significant uptrend taking place. On the other hand, a large red gap would indicate a significant downtrend. Similarly, if the gap between the two is narrowing and the ALMA line switches from aqua to pink, then we know that a reversal could be coming shortly.

VWMA CrossesThis is a simple tool that gives traders a simple visual representation of Volume-Weighted Moving Average ( VWMA ) crossovers that is pretty similar to the MACD . We don't typically trade solely based on the VWMA , but it is definitely one of our go-to tools when combining multiple indicators.
When trading with VWMA's, it is common to enter a position when the fast VWMA crosses over the slow VWMA . In other words, the fast VWMA was previously less than the slow VWMA and is now greater in value than the slow VWMA . Conversely, traders often exit their positions when the fast VWMA crosses under the slow VWMA .
This tool plots the absolute value of the difference between the fast and slow VWMA's as a histogram. When the difference between the fast and slow VWMA's is greater than zero (meaning fast > slow), then the bars are green. The bars then turn red when the fast VWMA is less than the slow VWMA . The blue circle-line is a Simple Moving Average of the difference between the two lines.
Here's a quick guide to interpreting the chart:
if (fast VWMA > slow VWMA ) and (difference < sma of differences)
then color = lime green
if (fast VWMA > slow VWMA ) and (difference > sma of differences)
then color = dark green
if (fast VWMA < slow VWMA ) and (difference < sma of differences)
then color = light red
if (fast VWMA < slow VWMA ) and (difference > sma of differences)
then color = dark red

Vortex Trend TrackerThough it may sound complex, the Vortex Indicator is essentially an uptrend line and a downtrend line. The vortex indicator can be used for a variety of purposes, including tracking the strength of trends, identifying/anticipating reversals, and generating entry/exit signals. It’s calculation is shown in the open-source code below.
To reduce the number of whipsaws produced by the indicator, we used an Exponential Moving Average of vmPlus and vmNegative values with a default length of 10. Decreasing this length will result in a more responsive vortex at the cost of more whipsaws and false signals.
The chart shows the absolute value of the difference between the uptrend and downtrend line displayed as the main histogram.
If the uptrend line is greater than the downtrend (thus indicating positive movement), then the histogram bars will be either light green or dark green. If the uptrend line has just now crossed the downtrend line, then the bar will be dark green. Bars will also be dark green when the uptrend line is greater than the downtrend line and the uptrend line is increasing. This means the trend is increasing in strength still. If the uptrend line is greater than the downtrend line, but is decreasing, then the bars will be light green. This means that the upwards trend is losing strength.
If the downtrend line is greater than the uptrend line, then there is a negative trend occurring and the bars will be either red or light red. If the downtrend line has just crossed over the uptrend line or is increasing in value, then the bar will be red. If the downtrend line is greater than the uptrend line, but is decreasing in value, then the bars will be light red (meaning the downtrend is weakening).
One way to trade using this vortex is to enter a long position when the bar color changes from red to light red. This would mean that the downtrend is decreasing in strength and an upwards reversal is likely to occur soon. Then, traders can exit their long position when the bars change from dark green to light green. When that color change occurs it means that the uptrend is running out of steam and price is unlikely to continue its upwards climb.
Traders can also choose to have the uptrend and downtrend lines plotted as well in the input menu. This may make it easier to visualize the Vortex and its usefulness in identifying reversals.
RSI + BTC Short & Long RSIsPlots the RSI for the current chart (same as the built-in RSI indicator) and adds the RSI values for the Shorts and Longs (S&L) from Bitmex. The main reason I've used the RSI value is to have it on the same scale as the price chart's RSI. The general trend of the S&L is preserved.

Dividing 2 symbolsHello Traders
This indicator is used to divide two assets between them. Why you would ask ?
For instance, in crypto trading, traders often look at the ratio Longs/Shorts or Shorts/Longs to figure out which side is leading the market and use this information as a powerful hedge for their next trade

OBV Z-ScoresThis study calculates the On-Balance Volume (OBV) and displays it in terms of its Z-Score.
OBV is a great momentum indicator . As the name suggests, OBV predicts changes in price based on the security's volume flow.
Formula:
if (Current Price > Previous Price)
then Current OBV = Previous OBV + Current Volume
if (Current Price < Previous Price)
then Current OBV = Previous OBV - Current Volume
if (Current Price == Previous Price)
then Current OBV = Previous OBV
As the formula shows, the OBV goes a step beyond just looking at the pure volume of a security. Instead, it factors in relative price action from period to period to reflect investor sentiment. As a result, we often look to the OBV to spot bullish or bearish trends while they are in the early stages of development or simply predict impending uptrends or downtrends.
To make the OBV easier to visualize, we converted the value to a Z-Score. The Z-Score is a simple statistical measurement and represents the current OBV value's distance from the mean OBV value in terms of # of standard deviations.
Users can adjust the values for the 2 upper bounds for Z Scores and 2 lower bounds. Additionally, the n value for z score calculation can be adjusted in the input menu. A higher n value means the z score will be based on a longer lookback period. A lower value will result in more sensitive readings.
Overall, I think this is an interesting way to represent OBV values and will be a valuable leading indicator.

Modiied Elder Ray Index(Bull or Bear)Here's a modified version of the Elder Ray Index created by the famed Dr.Alexander Elder. This indicator has proven to be especially helpful lately given the crazy state of crypto.
Slow Moving Average :
The top chart shows the moving average used to filter trends. I recommend using a higher window length(can be adjusted with the 'lenSlowMA' input option). I wanted this to be a very smooth moving average, so I used the following formula:
slow MA = ema(vwma(close, 64), 64)
This resulted in a pretty smooth line that still detects major price movements very well.
-The background and bar colors both change in response to the Slow MA's value. The background and bars change to green when a bullish trend is detected and red when bearish.
Bear and Bull Power :
To balance things out a little, I included two histogram's based on Elder's Ray. Here, a more responsive EMA with a shorter window length is used to calculate the bull and bear power values and track short-term price fluctuations.
NOTE: The length of the EMA used here can be adjusted in the input menu.
Bull Power = current high - EMA(close, 13)
Bear Power = current low - EMA(close, 13)
Momentum TraderThis study combines two versatile momentum indicators :
Chande Momentum Oscillator:
-Measures trend strength, with higher absolute values meaning greater strength.
-Also tracks divergence. When price increases, but is not accompanied by an increase in Chande Momentum Oscillator values, it signifies bearish divergence and a reversal is likely to follow.
-Shown as the teal and pink histogram.
Percentage Price Oscillator:
-Similar to the MACD, except that it expresses the difference between the two moving averages in terms of a percentage. This makes it a little easier to visualize.
-PPO values greater than zero indicate an uptrend, as that means the fast EMA is greater than the slow (and vice versa).
Entry and Exit Conditions:
Enter When:
1) Chande Momentum crosses over zero from negative to positive territory. AND
2) It has been less than 3 bars since Chande Momentum was less than the lower green line. AND
3) Chande Momentum is rising(positive slope).
Exit When:
1) Chande Momentum is greater than the upper line. AND
2) It has been less than 6 bars since the PPO value was greater than the upper bound. AND
3) PPO is less than 5 (meaning the difference between the two EMA's is less than 5%). AND
4)PPO has a negative slope.
This study comes with alert conditions for long entries and exits.

Double ALMAIncludes fast and slow Arnaud Legoux Moving Averages (ALMA). ALMA is a moving average based on a Gaussian(normal) distribution that reduces lag while still retaining smoothness.
Input Options:
-Offset : Value in range {0,1} that adjusts the curve of the Gaussian Distribution. A higher value will result in higher responsiveness but lower smoothness. A lower value will mean higher smoothness but less responsiveness.
-Lengths : The lookback for each ALMA calculation.
-Sigma : Defines the sharpe of the curve coefficients.
The slow ALMA is the thickest red and green alternating line that indicates bullish or bearish movement. When slow ALMA is bullish, the graph's background changes to green. When the slow ALMA is bearish, the background is red.
The fast ALMA uses a smaller lookback and is more responsive than the slow ALMA as a result of the shorter length and higher default offset parameter.
The two dotted lines represent (slowALMA +/- 1.25 * stdev(slowALMA, slowALMA period *2)).
The indicator bases its buy and sell signals based on the trend identified by the slow ALMA and the fast ALMA's crossings of the standard deviation bands.
Comes with pre-set buy and sell alerts.
VWMA/SMA Breakout and Divergence DetectorThis indicator compares four different values :
-Fast Simple Moving Average(SMA)
-Fast Volume Weighted Moving Average(VWMA)
-Slow SMA
-Slow VWMA
Comparing SMA's and VWMA's of the same length is a common trading tactic. Since volume is not taken into consideration when calculating Simple Moving Averages, we can gain valuable insights from the difference between the two lines.
Since volume should be increasing along with an upwards price movement, the VWMA should be greater than the SMA during a volume-supported uptrend. Thus, we can confirm an uptrend if the VWMA remains greater than the SMA. If the VWMA falls under the SMA in the midst of an upwards price movement, however, that indicates bearish divergence. The opposite is true for downtrends. If price is decreasing and volume is decreasing at the same time (as it should), then we can confirm the downtrend.
Interpreting the Graph:
If the slow SMA is greater than the slow VWMA, then the area representing the difference between the two lines is filled in red. If the slow VWMA is greater than the slow SMA, however, the area between the two is filled green.
If the fast SMA is greater than the fast VWMA, then the area between the two dotted lines is filled in red. On the other hand, the area will be filled green if the fast VWMA is greater than the slow SMA.
In addition to spotting divergences and confirming trends, the four lines can be used to spot breakouts. Typically, a VWMA crossover will precede the SMA crossover. When the fast VWMA crosses over the slow VWMA and then a SMA crossover follows shortly after, then it is a hint that a bullish trend is beginning to form.
Bitcoin Fat Volume IndicatorBitcoin Fat Volume Indicator
The script displays aggregate sums of Bitcoin dollar and Tether market volumes separately as follows:
USD markets (blue): gemini, coinbase, okcoin, kraken, bitfinex, bitstamp, btce, mtgox
Tether markets (orange): huobi, binance, bittrex, poloniex, hitbtc
The indicator should work on all time frames on any chart so long as volume data exists. Obviously for full history use Bitcoin Liquid Index.
The indicator is slow that's why I'm not including other stable coins or fiat markets at present.
Use settings to turn off Tether or USD bars as desired.

Asset Correlation Tool v3, improvedI found this useful tool among the indicators but it wasn't doing the correlation study correctly.
Everything in markets, with only a few exceptions, are rising in value over time and therefore trended to time. The simplest method I found is to use link relative or first difference detrending, before calculating a correlation between assets.
I also updated it to include more assets, to use the latest Cryptocap indices like BTC.D/ETH.D/TOTAL2 and the top 100 crypto index CIX100. I improved the colour schemes, too
Included in the source code are some other ideas like the FRED:M1 and FRED:M2 (only on daily charts), the Yuan/Yen/EUR/USD, etc. There's lots of scope for correlating unrelated markets.
I'll keep updating it as I use it to find truly correlated assets. Some kind of signal line of known correlations, to subtract from the baseline fuzz of market activity.
Any improvements are most welcome; I'm a novice at best at statistics and build on others' work.

Ease of Movement WatcherHere’s a handy Ease of Movement(EMV) Indicator. I tried to include detailed comments so that anyone that’s learning pine can follow along.
The Ease of Movement Indicator is a volume based oscillator that is designed to measure the ease (or movability) of price movement for a security. The EMV is a centered oscillator, meaning that values can fluctuate above and below zero.
To understand how to use and interpret the EMV Indicator, its crucial to first understand its two main calculations :
Distance Moved = ((high + low) / 2) - ((high + low ) / 2)
-This is the difference between the current period’s midpoint and the previous period’s
midpoint.
Box Ratio = (volume / 100,000) / (high - low)
-When calculating the Box Ratio, it is common to divide the volume by 100,000 for a clearer visualization of the data. However, users can choose
to modify this value with the ‘volumeDiv’ input.
The Ease of Movement Value is then pretty simple to calculate:
EMV = (Distance Moved / Box Ratio)
The indicator then plots a SMA of the previous 24 EMV Values.
Looking at the formula, we know that combining low volume with a large {high, low} range will result in a relatively small box ratio value. Thus, we know that the EMV value for that period will be higher since EMV is found by dividing the Distance Moved by the Box Ratio.
Here’s a simple guide to interpreting the EMV:
- If (EMV > 0)
then price is increasing with relative ease.
-If (EMV < 0)
then price is decreasing with relative ease.
- If high-low range is large and volume is low
then ease of movement is high.
-If high-low range is small and volume is high
then ease of movement is low.
The Chart:
-The histogram represents the Simple Moving Average of EMV Values. The default length is 24, but users can adjust this value at the inputs menu(I've
found 24 works best).
-The teal and pink dotted lines represent the standard deviation of the SMA of EMV values multiplied by 2.5.
-The histogram turns dark green when the EMV SMA is greater than the top teal dotted standard deviations line.
-The histogram turns maroon when the EMV SMA falls below the bottom pink standard deviation line.
How To Use:
Enter a long position when the most recent EMV SMA value was below the lower pink stand. dev. line and the current EMV SMA value rises above that
same pink line. That means the previous bar was maroon and the current bar is not.
If the user enables the option to show entry points, a green dot will be plotted when it is time to enter a long position.
Exit the long position when the most recent EMV SMA value was above the upper green standard deviation line and the current EMV SMA value falls
below that same line. If this is true, then the previous bar will be dark green, and the current will be light green.
If the ‘showExits’ option is enabled, then a red dot will be plotted when it is time to exit the long position.
Input Options:
- 'volumeDiv' : Integer. Used in the calculation of Box Ratio.
- 'lenSMA' : Integer. The length of the Simple Moving Average of Ease of Movement Values.
- 'showStDev' : Bool. If true, dotted green and red lines will be shown at values equal to 2.5 * standard deviation of emvSMA and -2.5 * standard deviation of
emvSMA.
- 'showEntries' and 'showExits' : Bool. If true, a green circle will be plotted at long entry points and a red circle will be plotted at long exit points.
- 'changeBgColor': Bool. If true, the background color will change to green when it is time to enter a long position and red when it is time to exit.
Alerts:
- When it is time to enter a long position, an alert with the message "EMV Tracker - Enter Long" is sent.
- When it is time to exit a long position, an alert with the message "EMV Tracker - Exit Long" is sent.
NOTE:
- I usually use this indicator to confirm signals from other indicators rather than relying on it solely.
- Most accurate signals are generated on 30 minutes with the default input values I've set in the script.
Shoot me a message if you have any ideas for modifications or questions.
