Trend CCITrend CCI (TCCI) Indicator
Description:
The Trend CCI (TCCI) indicator is a unique combination of the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and the Average True Range (ATR), designed to identify trends and market reversals with a refined sensitivity to price volatility. The indicator plots the CCI, adjusted by an ATR filter, and color-codes the trendline to signal uptrends and downtrends.
How It Works:
This indicator uses the CCI to measure price momentum and an ATR-based filter to smooth out market noise, making it easier to detect significant shifts in the market trend. Key parameters such as the ATR Period, ATR Multiplier, and CCI Period have been carefully chosen to optimize the indicator's performance:
1. ATR Period (default: 18)
The ATR Period determines the number of periods used to calculate the **Average True Range**, which reflects market volatility. In this case, an **ATR Period of 18** has been selected for several reasons:
Balance between responsiveness and noise reduction : A period of 18 strikes a balance between being responsive to recent price movements and filtering out minor fluctuations. Shorter ATR periods might be too reactive, creating false signals, while longer periods might miss shorter-term trends.
Adaptable to various market conditions : An 18-period ATR is suitable for both intraday and swing trading strategies, making it versatile across different time frames.
Standard industry practice : Many traders use ATR settings between 14 and 20 periods as a convention for detecting reliable volatility levels.
2. ATR Multiplier (default: 1.5)
The ATR Multiplier is applied to the ATR value to define how sensitive the indicator is to volatility. In this case, a multiplier of 1.5 has been chosen:
Avoiding whipsaws in low volatility markets: By setting the multiplier to 1.5, the indicator filters out smaller, less significant price movements, reducing the likelihood of whipsaw signals (i.e., false trend reversals during periods of low volatility).
Optimizing signal accuracy: A moderate multiplier like 1.5 ensures that the indicator only generates signals when the price moves a significant distance from the average range. Higher multipliers (e.g., 2.0) may ignore valid opportunities, while lower multipliers (e.g., 1.0) might create too many signals.
Enhancing trend clarity : The multiplier’s role in widening the range allows the indicator to respond more clearly during periods of strong trends, reducing signal noise and false positives.
3. CCI Period (default: 63)
The CCI Period defines the number of periods used to calculate the Commodity Channel Index. A 63-period CCI is selected based on the following considerations:
Smoothing the momentum calculation: A longer period, such as 63, is used to smooth out the CCI and reduce the effects of short-term price fluctuations. This period captures longer-term momentum, making it ideal for identifying more significant market trends.
-Filtering out short-term noise: While shorter CCI periods (e.g., 14 or 20) may be more reactive, they tend to produce more signals, some of which may be false. A 63-period CCI focuses on stronger and more sustained price movements, providing fewer but higher-quality signals.
Adapted to intermediate trading: A 63-period CCI aligns well with traders looking for medium-term trend-following strategies, striking a balance between long-term trend identification and responsiveness to significant price shifts.
How to Use:
Green Area: When the trendline turns green, it signals that the CCI is positive, reflecting upward momentum. This can be interpreted as a buy signal, indicating the potential for long positions or continuing bullish trades.
Red Area: When the trendline turns red, it signals that the CCI is negative, reflecting downward momentum. This can be interpreted as a sell signal, indicating potential short positions or bearish trades.
ATR Filter: The ATR helps reduce false signals by ignoring minor price movements. Traders can adjust the ATR Multiplier to make the indicator more or less sensitive based on market conditions. A lower multiplier (e.g., 1.2) may increase signal frequency, while a higher multiplier (e.g., 2.0) reduces it.
Originality:
The Trend CCI (TCCI) stands out due to its combination of the CCI and ATR. While many indicators simply plot raw CCI values, this script enhances the CCI’s effectiveness by incorporating an ATR-based volatility filter. This ensures that only significant trends trigger signals, making it a more reliable tool in volatile markets. The choice of the ATR period, multiplier, and CCI period ensures a refined balance between trend detection and noise reduction, distinguishing it as a powerful trend-following indicator.
Additionally, the visual aspect—using color-coded trendlines that dynamically shift between green and red—simplifies the interpretation of market trends, offering traders a clear and immediate understanding of trend direction and momentum strength.
Final Recommendations:
Use in Trending Markets The TCCI is most effective in trending markets, where its signals align with broader market momentum. In sideways or low-volatility markets, consider adjusting the ATR multiplier or using other complementary indicators to confirm the signals.
Risk Management: Always integrate robust risk management practices, such as using stop-loss orders and position sizing, to protect against sudden market reversals or periods of heightened volatility.
Adjust for Volatility: Consider the volatility of the asset being traded. In highly volatile assets, a higher ATR multiplier (e.g., 2.0) may be necessary to filter out noise, while in more stable assets, a lower multiplier (e.g., 1.2) might generate earlier signals.
By using the Trend CCI (TCCI) indicator with a deeper understanding of its key parameters, traders can better identify trends, reduce noise, and improve their overall decision-making in the markets.

Lorentzian ML [Sublime Traders]Lorentzian ML
Context: The whole idea of this indicator is to use the Lorentzian Classifier (a popular machine learning model suited for analyzing data in a time series) , add some oscillators and filter them with volume averages in order to get precise swing move indications.
The Lorentzian ML indicator uses the Lorenzian Classifier (LDC) algorithm that takes into account the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and Relative Strength Index (RSI) signals as raw material to provide buy and sell signals. The indicator is accompanied by take profit , stop loss and entry lines based on the Average True Range (ATR).
Features:
1. Lorentzian Classifier:
Uses the difference between the current and previous values of CCI and RSI to generate buy and sell signals.
The classifier threshold can be adjusted using the input parameter.
2. ATR-based Take Profit Line:
A horizontal take profit line is plotted when buy or sell signals occur.
The line is based on the ATR value and a user-defined multiplier.
3. VMA filtering
Using the simple switches: Scalper, Swing or Holder , the users can easily filter the frequency of the signals in addition to the lookback and threshold filters. This will affect the used VMA lines that use data gathered from multiple timeframes.
Visual Representation:
The indicator plots green candles for buy signals and red candles for sell signals.
Buy and sell labels are displayed on the chart to mark the points where signals occur.
The ATR-based take profit line is displayed in a user-defined color and line width.
Visual representation of the VMA lines : Red - bearish , Blue - uncertain , Green - bullish
Changes and features to come
Fix "holder" switch on sell side that sometimes bugs the whole chart.
Add more intuitive filtering methods.
Add two more oscillators to the Lorentzian pool.
Create switches for Lorentzian source.
Trend Indicator with RSI and Fibbonacci Band 0.702 crossingsToday we have a new Indicator set, which I created using inspiration from the Trend Magic Indicator from KivancOzbilgic and adding several new aspects to it and a slightly modified calculation of the trend indicator itself.
You can change the inputs by changing the pre set values in the settings, but I found the current settings quite accurate. Feel free to experiment to fine tune the indicators.
Here are the details of the script:
Trend indicated within candles and as a line
- bullish and bearish trends are now also indicated within the candle based on the CCI calculation.
- Bullish is indicated by a green circle below the candle or as one may call it a "dot"
- bearish trend is indicated by a red circle above the candle
Entry Signal based on RSI crossing its EMA
- my motivation was to have a clearer entry signal besides highlighting a trend, which can not really be used to identify a good entry but to give confidence or when loosing trend to give an exit signal.
- after studiying the RSI and how it works together with its EMA it looks quite interesting as an entry or exit signal. But be cautios if the EMA and RSI values are moving in a narrow area we get a lot of crosses and therefore signals which should rather be ignored rather to be act on. So the the range where the cross happens is also quite important. But this aspect is not yet reflected as a rule/ logic.
But I am thinking of adding something.. or alternativly best to switch to another timeframe to get some better data
RSI overbought and oversold as Diamonds
- I also added key indications of oversold or overbought as Blue and Pink diamonds, can be considered as additional information to maybe identify a short term top or bottom.. but its not very accurate.
Entry signal based on crossing Fibbonachi Band 0.702
- So far the 0.702 seems to be quite an interesting retracement level which seems to be met a lot of times
- based on the assumption the price will evantually hit the 0.702 either direction I wanted to get a signal when this happens
- BUT! a big but, unfortunalty the Fibbonachi bands tend to bloat up in case of high volatility so it is not easy to find the crossing on higher timeframes
Here are the standard value which I found quite accurate for the assets I use this indicator set:
CCI Period = 5
ATR Multiplier = 1
ATR Period = 1
Source = High Low Close (hlc3 average value of the candle
Here the inputs used for the RSI Crossing signal (here you should play around a little to see which entry would have been best..)
RSI Length = 14
RSI Oversold = 25 (to be used for the "golden" entry signal based on the FBB crossing)
RSI Overbought = 80 (to be used for the "golden" entry signal based on the FBB crossing)
RSI Moving Average Length
In future versions I will add options to activate or deactive some of the plotting and espacially this golden dot when the fibbonachi band is being crossed needs some fine tuning..
And lets see if there is a way to fix the bloating of those bands..
