IU Inside out candlestick patternIU Inside Out Candlestick Pattern
This indicator identifies the Inside Out Candlestick Pattern — a unique 3-bar price action setup that captures strong market momentum and potential reversals with greater reliability than traditional patterns.
Pattern Logic:
The Inside Out pattern builds upon a classic engulfing setup by adding a breakout confirmation, making it a refined and filtered approach to candlestick analysis.
Bullish Inside Out Logic:
- Bar must be a bullish engulfing candle (engulfs previous bearish candle).
- Current bar must be bullish and must close above the high of the engulfing candle (a bullish breakout).
- When this setup is confirmed, a shaded green box is drawn around the range of the engulfing candle and its preceding bar.
Bearish Inside Out Logic:
- Bar must be a bearish engulfing candle (engulfs previous bullish candle).
- Current bar must be bearish and must close below the low of the engulfing candle (a bearish breakdown).
- When confirmed, a red box highlights the zone formed by the engulfing candle and its prior bar.
Why this is unique:
Unlike conventional candlestick indicators that trigger signals immediately after an engulfing pattern, this script adds a breakout condition to validate follow-through strength. This reduces false positives and gives traders a clearer edge. The pattern is also rare, which means it captures strong, decisive moves when it does appear.
How users can benefit:
- High-quality entries: Only shows patterns with proven follow-through, improving trade timing.
- Visual clarity: Boxes and labels highlight significant price zones for easy interpretation.
- Flexible use: Applicable across timeframes and instruments — ideal for both intraday and swing traders.
- Alerts included: Real-time alerts help traders stay updated without staring at charts all day.
This script is a powerful tool for price action traders looking to enhance pattern reliability and signal strength through structure-based breakout confirmation.

Entropy [ScorsoneEnterprises]This indicator calculates the entropy of price log returns over a user-defined lookback period, providing insights into market complexity and unpredictability. Entropy measures the randomness or disorder in price movements, helping traders identify periods of high or low market uncertainty.
How It Works
The indicator computes the entropy of log returns (log(close/close )) using a histogram-based approach with customizable bins. Log returns are stored in an array of size N (lookback period), and entropy is calculated by:
Binning the returns into bins intervals based on their range.
Computing the probability distribution across bins.
Calculating entropy as -Σ(p * log(p)), where p is the probability of each bin.
A reference Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the entropy, with a separate lookback period (SMA_N), is plotted to highlight trends in market complexity. The entropy plot uses a gradient color scheme (red for lower entropy, teal for higher), while the SMA color shifts based on whether entropy is above (teal) or below (red) the SMA.
Key Features
Inputs:
Lookback Period (default: 50): Number of bars for calculating log returns.
Reference SMA Lookback Period (default: 100): Period for the entropy SMA.
Number of Bins (default: 20): Number of histogram bins for entropy calculation.
Plots:
Entropy: Gradient-colored line reflecting market randomness.
Reference SMA: Trend line to compare entropy against its average.
Interpretation
High Entropy: Indicates chaotic, unpredictable price movements, often during volatile or trendless markets.
Low Entropy: Suggests more predictable, ordered price behavior, often in trending or stable markets.
Compare entropy to its SMA to gauge whether current market complexity is above or below its recent average.
Usage
Use this indicator to assess market regimes. High entropy may signal choppy, range-bound conditions, while low entropy could indicate trending opportunities. Combine with price action or other indicators for confirmation.
Examples
We see on this PEPPERSTONE:COCOA chart that when entropy is low it signals a strong trend, either up or down. High entropy signals indecision and choppiness in the market. We can determine this by noticing when the value is above or below its recent average.
Entropy is used in high frequency trading often. It is a nice tool for lower time frames to determine how predictable and strong a trend is.
Inputs
Users can enter the lookback value for entropy, bin count, and the look back for the entropy moving average.
No tool is perfect, the Entropy value is also not perfect and should not be followed blindly. It is good to use any tool along with discretion and price action.
Long-Term VWAP Mean Reversion SDCACore Idea:
This indicator is designed to support Strategic Dollar Cost Averaging (SDCA) for Bitcoin using a cumulative VWAP-based mean reversion model. It helps long-term investors identify high-conviction buy zones and overbought conditions using statistical deviation from the cumulative VWAP. This indicator evaluates how much price is stretched from the true market average price, weighted by cumulative volume over time.
Core Concepts and Formulas:
Cumulative VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price):
VWAP cumulative = ∑(Price×Volume) / ∑Volume
A long-term anchor that reflects the average dollar cost of all market participants across all candles. This version does not reset daily, unlike intraday VWAP.
VWAP Deviation % :
Deviation% = Price - VWAP cumulative / VWAP cumulative x 100
Shows how far current price has diverged from the long-term fair value.
Z-Score of VWAP Deviation:
Z= (Price−VWAP)−μ / σ (lookback period: default 200)
SDCA Multiplier Mapping:
*Keep in mind in my Z-Score system, -2 represents the overbought level (white horizontal line) and +2 represents oversold (cyan horizontal line) conditions. So the scores on the Y axis and Z-score in the table are reversed.
| Z-Score Range | SDCA Multiplier |
---------------------------------------------
| ≤ -2 | 0.25×
| -1 to +1 | 1.0×
| > +2 | 2.0×
The pink line plots this multiplier. It’s meant to control buy weight at each time step.
How to Use This for SDCA:
-Buy normally when the multiplier is 1.0× (Z-score between -1 and +1)
-Accelerate buying when Z-score is deeply negative (price far below VWAP)
-Slow or pause buying when Z-score is high (price far above VWAP)
-Use the stats panel to track current Z-score, VWAP level, deviation %, and multiplier
-Watch the red/blue backgrounds as visual confirmation of oversold/overbought zones
Inputs:
Z-Score Lookback Length:
Default: 200 but can be adjusted.
Visuals:
Z-Score Line (cyan): shows current standardized deviation from VWAP
Multiplier Line (bright pink): your SDCA intensity signal
Background Zones: cyan = oversold, white = overbought
Horizontal Lines: +2 and -2 standard deviation thresholds
Stats Panel (bottom right): live values for Z-score, multiplier, price, VWAP, and the deviation formula
Suited For:
-Long-term Bitcoin investors
-SDCA Systems
-Mean reversion systems
-Macro-level buy/sell planning
sideways market for strangleThis Pine Script is designed to identify **sideways or range-bound markets**, which are often ideal conditions for trading **options strangle strategies**. Here's a breakdown of what the script does:
---
### 🛠 **Purpose:**
To **detect low-volatility, sideways market conditions** where price is not trending strongly in either direction — suitable for **neutral options strategies like short strangles**.
---
### 📌 **Key Components:**
#### 1. **Inputs:**
- `RSI Length`: Default 14 — used for calculating the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
- `ADX Length`: Default 14 — used for calculating the Average Directional Index (ADX), DI+ (positive directional movement), and DI- (negative directional movement).
#### 2. **RSI Calculation:**
- `rsiValue` is calculated using the built-in `ta.rsi(close, rsiLength)`.
- A **sideways market** is expected when RSI is in the **40–60 range**, indicating lack of strong momentum.
#### 3. **ADX and Directional Indicators (DI+ and DI-):**
- `diPlus` and `diMinus` are calculated based on recent price movements and the True Range.
- `dx` (Directional Index) measures the strength of trend direction using the difference between DI+ and DI-.
- `adx` is a smoothed version of `dx` and represents **overall trend strength**.
#### 4. **Sideways Market Conditions:**
- **RSI Condition**: RSI is between 40 and 60.
- **ADX Condition**:
- `adx <= 25` → Weak or no trend.
- `adx < diPlus` and `adx < diMinus` → Confirms ADX is lower than directional components, reducing likelihood of a trending market.
#### 5. **Signal Plot:**
- A **green label below the bar** (`shape.labelup`) is plotted when both conditions are met.
- Indicates potential sideways market conditions.
---
### ✅ **Use Case:**
- This signal can help identify **low-volatility zones** suitable for **short strangles** or **iron condors**, where you profit from time decay while expecting the price to stay within a range.

Entropy Bands (TechnoBlooms)Entropy Bands — A New Era of Volatility and Trend Analysis
Entropy Bands is our next indicator as a part of the Quantum Price Theory (QPT) Series of indicators.
🧠 Overview
Entropy Bands are an advanced volatility-based indicator that reimagines traditional banded systems like Bollinger Bands.
Built on entropy theory, adaptive moving averages, and dynamic volatility measurement, Entropy Bands provide deeper insights into market randomness, trend strength, and breakout potential.
Instead of only relying on price deviation (like Bollinger Bands), Entropy Bands integrate chaos theory principles to create smarter, more responsive dynamic bands that adapt to real market behavior.
🚀Why is Entropy Bands Different — and Better
Dynamic Band Width : Adjusts using both entropy and ATR, creating smarter expansion/contraction.
Multi-Moving Average Core : Choose between SMA, EMA, or WMA for optimal centerline behavior.
Noise and Breakout Filtering : Filters fake breakouts by analyzing candle body size and entropy conditions.
Visual Clarity : Background and candle coloring highlight chaotic/noisy zones, trend zones, and breakout moments.
Entropy Bands don't just react to price — they analyze the underlying market behavior, offering superior decision-making signals.
📚 Watch Band Behavior:
Bands expand during volatility spikes or chaotic conditions.
Bands contract during low volatility or tight consolidation zones.
📚 Analyze Candle Coloring:
Green = Bullish breakout (closing above upper band).
Pink = Bearish breakout (closing below lower band).
Gray = Inside bands (neutral/random noise).
✨ Key Features of Entropy Bands:
Entropy-Based Band Width Calculation: A scientific edge over pure price deviation methods.
Dynamic Background Coloring: Highlights high entropy areas where randomness dominates.
Candle Breakout Coloring: Easy-to-spot trend breakouts and strength moves.
Multi-MA Flexibility: Adapt the bands’ core to trending, ranging, or volatile markets.
Body Size Filter: Protects against fake breakouts by requiring meaningful candle body moves.

FVG# Fair Value Gap (FVG) Indicator
## Overview
The Fair Value Gap (FVG) indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to identify potential areas of price imbalance in the market. These imbalances, known as "fair value gaps," represent discontinuities in price movement where supply and demand were significantly imbalanced, potentially creating zones that price may return to in the future. This indicator was developed by Michele Amori for TradingView and operates as an overlay on price charts.
## Core Concept
Fair Value Gaps occur when price makes a significant move in one direction, leaving behind an area where no trading occurred. Specifically:
- **Bullish FVG**: Forms when the low of the current candle is higher than the high of the candle two positions back, creating an upward gap in price movement.
- **Bearish FVG**: Forms when the high of the current candle is lower than the low of the candle two positions back, creating a downward gap in price movement.
These gaps represent potential "fair value" areas that price may revisit to establish equilibrium between buyers and sellers.
## Visual Representation
The indicator displays FVGs in the following manner:
1. **Bullish FVGs**:
- Represented by semi-transparent green boxes
- Extend from the high of the candle two positions back to the low of the current candle
- Include a dashed green center line representing the middle point of the gap
2. **Bearish FVGs**:
- Represented by semi-transparent red boxes
- Extend from the low of the candle two positions back to the high of the current candle
- Include a dashed red center line representing the middle point of the gap
All FVG boxes and their center lines are extended to the right of the chart, making them visible until they are filled or invalidated.
## Invalidation Logic
The indicator automatically removes FVGs when they are considered filled or invalidated:
- **Bullish FVGs**: Removed when the closing price falls below the bottom of the FVG box, indicating that the upward gap has been filled.
- **Bearish FVGs**: Removed when the closing price rises above the top of the FVG box, indicating that the downward gap has been filled.
This removal only occurs after a candle is confirmed (fully formed), ensuring that premature invalidation doesn't occur during candle formation.
## Technical Implementation
The indicator uses arrays to store and manage the FVG boxes and their center lines. Key features of the implementation include:
- Creation of new FVGs only after candle confirmation
- Dynamic addition and removal of visual elements
- Transparent coloring (75% transparency) for better chart visibility
- Dashed center lines with less transparency (25%) to highlight the middle point of gaps

Users can select between 7 MA types for each line: SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA, LSMA, SMMA.
Adjustable periods and price sources (e.g., close, open) for both MAs.
Default settings: MA 1 = 9-period EMA, MA 2 = 20-period EMA.
Plotting:
MA 1 is blue, MA 2 is red (colors customizable via inputs).
Crossovers between the MAs can signal trend changes.
2. Strategic Candle Coloring:
Candles are colored based on their relationship to the previous candle:
Green (Bullish): "Two-Up Bar" – current high > prior high, and low does not break prior low.
Red (Bearish): "Two-Down Bar" – current low < prior low, and high does not break prior high.
Purple (Outside Bar): "Three Bar" – current candle engulfs the prior candle (higher high and lower low).
Yellow (Inside Bar): "One Bar" – current candle is contained within the prior candle’s range.
Candle coloring is based on:

OBV by Randy_New指標介紹: 本指標基於傳統 OBV(On-Balance Volume)設計,並加入 EMA(21) 作為基準線,生成震盪型 OBV 差值指標(OBV Oscillator),進一步強化趨勢動能判斷能力。
改良特色:
傳統 OBV 直接累積買賣量,但視覺變化不明顯。本腳本將 OBV 減去 EMA,形成震盪指標,方便判斷趨勢轉折點。
以紅/綠顏色區分 OBV Oscillator 正負,紅色代表上升趨勢,綠色代表下降趨勢,提升視覺判讀效率。
修正 OBV 初期累積偏移問題,讓指標更加準確。
應用方式:
OBV Oscillator > 0 時:代表買盤動能佔優,偏多思考。
OBV Oscillator < 0 時:代表賣盤動能佔優,偏空思考。
可搭配趨勢線、支撐阻力或其他指標(如 MACD、RSI)進行交叉驗證,增加交易勝率。
適合對象:
喜歡使用 OBV 判斷動能轉折的交易者
需要視覺化量價結合訊號的操盤手
備註: 本腳本為封閉原始碼,因應自有改良與應用,保護獨特邏輯設計,感謝理解
Indicator Name: OBV by Randy_New
Overview:
This indicator is based on the traditional On-Balance Volume (OBV) concept, with an enhancement that integrates an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) smoothing of the OBV data. The indicator plots an OBV Oscillator, which is the difference between the raw OBV and its EMA, helping traders to better visualize momentum changes and potential trend reversals.
Key Features:
Instead of simply accumulating OBV values, this script calculates the difference between OBV and its EMA to create a more responsive oscillator.
Color-coded visualization: Red when the oscillator is above zero (indicating bullish momentum), Green when below zero (indicating bearish momentum).
Corrects initial offset issues caused by na values in volume changes to ensure a more accurate OBV calculation from the beginning.
How to Use:
When the OBV Oscillator is above zero, it suggests buying pressure is dominant — consider bullish strategies.
When the OBV Oscillator is below zero, it suggests selling pressure is dominant — consider bearish strategies.
For higher accuracy, combine it with other technical tools such as trendlines, support/resistance, MACD, or RSI for confirmation.
Target Users:
Traders who like to use volume-based indicators for momentum analysis.
Traders looking for a simplified and visually enhanced version of the traditional OBV.
Important Notice:
This script is closed-source to protect the specific improvements and proprietary adjustments made to the traditional OBV calculation and visualization method. Thank you for your understanding.
