ICT Commitment of Traders° by toodegreesDescription:
The Commitment of Traders (COT) is a valuable raw data report released weekly by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). This report offers insights into the current long and short positions of three key market entities:
Commercial Traders ( usually represented in red )
Large Traders ( typically depicted in green )
Small Speculator Traders ( commonly shown in blue )
The concept of utilizing the COT data as a strategic trading tool was first introduced by Larry Williams, who emphasized the importance of monitoring Commercial Speculators – large corporate producers or consumers of commodities.
The Inner Circle Trader (ICT) prompts us to delve deeper into this data. While we can easily determine their Net Position (also referred to as the Main Program) by subtracting Commercial Short Positions from the Commercial Long Positions, this calculation doesn't reveal their ongoing Hedge Program .
Merely following the Main Program won't provide a trading edge. Aligning with the Hedge Program can be an invaluable weapon in your trading arsenal.
The Commercial Speculators' Hedge Program can be unveiled by examining the highest and lowest reading of their Net Position over a chosen time period and setting a new "zero line" between these extremes. This process generates a novel "COT Graph" providing a detailed understanding of the Commercial Speculators' current market activity.
When the Hedge Program, Seasonality, and Open Interest are cross-referenced with Institutional Orderflow, a trader can construct a very clear medium-to-long-term market narrative.
Features:
Access COT Data for the Commercial Speculators via Tradingview's reliable data source
Automate calculations and display the 3-month, 6-month, 12-month, 2-year, and 3-year Hedge Program
Define your own Custom Time Range for the Hedge Program
Display the Main Program and all Hedge Programs in an easy-to-understand table format
Additionally, by following the included instructions, you can augment your table with COT data from multiple markets. This extra information can help monitor correlated markets and develop a more robust market narrative:

Power Of Stocks - Bollinger Band & 5Ema Indicator - Keanu_RiTz
Power of Stocks - Bollinger band & 5ema Strategy
In this script you get to take Buy/Sell trades using the 3 options mentioned below.(Alerts with price levels for buy/sell at , SL & Target are included in this one)
1. Combined Strategy :- uses confirmation from both strategies to trade.
2. Bollinger band Strategy :- use the Bollinger band Strategy to trade.
3. 5ema Strategy :- use the 5ema Strategy to trade.
1. Combined Strategy :-
for Selling :- we will go short/sell only when conditions of both strategies are satisfied.
i.e. when a candle is completely above the upper Bollinger band & completely above the 5ema then it will be our Alert Candle.
We Short/Sell only when the low of the Alert candle is broken or when the candle closes below the close of the Alert Candle.
SL will be above high of the Alert Candle. Target will be minimum 1:3 or as per your emotions.
for Buying:- we will go Long/Buy only when conditions of both strategies are satisfied.
i.e. when a candle is completely below the lower Bollinger band & completely below the 5ema then it will be our Alert Candle.
We go Long/Buy only when the high of the Alert candle is broken or when the candle closes above the close of the Alert Candle.
SL will be below low of the Alert Candle. Target will be minimum 1:3 or as per your emotions.
2. Power of Stocks - Bollinger Band Strategy :-
Bollinger band with standard deviation = 1.5
when a candle is completely above the upper Bollinger band, that candle will be called a signal/alert candle.
Initiate a Sell trade when that alert candles low is broken. SL will be above high of that alert candle.
Risk to reward ratio will be 1:4 i.e. target will be 4 times the SL.
when a candle is completely below the lower Bollinger band, that candle will be called a signal/alert candle.
Initiate a Buy trade when that alert candles high is broken. SL will be below low of that alert candle.
Risk to reward ratio will be 1:4 i.e. target will be 4 times the SL.
other rules for Options buying:- minimum 15min timeframe
The day you initiate the position , you should be in profit above 10%-15% then only you should carry forward that position overnight, otherwise squareoff your trade on that day only.
Buy ATM or slightly OTM, SL max 100 points , target 1:4
for Long-term/Investing :- Minimum Weekly
If candle is outside the lower band then initiate a Buy trade when that candles High is broken. Sl will be below Low of that candle.
for Long-term Target will be according to your emotions.
3. Power of Stocks - 5ema Strategy (target minimum 1:3)
Timeframe -
5 min for Selling (Sell Futures/index/stocks or buy Put)
15 min for Buying (Buy Futures/index/stocks or sell Put)
for selling stocks :-
you should enter trade within 10am , don't look for entries after that time. take only 2 entries a day.
for selling Index(Banknifty) :-
you can take trade at anytime of the day whenever conditions get satisfied. you can take multiple entries in banknifty as it is very volatile.
for options choose atm strikes: selling trade
sl for premium between 200-300 :- 20-30 points SL
sl for premium between 400-500 :- 40-50 points SL
sl for premium between 500-600 :- 50-60 points SL
Subhashish Pani's (power of stocks) 5 EMA Strategy:-
It plots 5 EMA and Buy/Sell signals with Target & Stoploss levels.
What is Subhashish Pani's (power of stocks) 5 EMA Strategy :-
His strategy is very simple to understand. for intraday use 5 minutes timeframe for selling. You can sell futures, sell call or buy Puts in selling strategy.
What this strategy tries to do is , it tries to catch the tops, so when you sell at top & it turns out to be a reversal point then you can get good profit.
this will hit stop losses often, but stop losses are small and minimum target should be 1:3. but if you stay with the trend you can get big profits.
According to Subhashish Pani this strategy has 60% success rate.
Strategy for Selling (Short future/Call/stock or buy Put)
When ever a Candle closes completely above 5 ema (no part of candle should be touching the 5ema), then that candle should be considered as Alert Candle.
If the next candle is also completely above 5 ema and it has not broken the low of previous alert candle, Then the previous Alert Candle should be ignored and the new candle should be considered as new Alert Candle.
so if this goes on then continue shifting the Alert Candle, but whenever the next candle breaks the low of the Alert Candle we should take the Short trade (Short future/Call/stock or buy Put).
Stoploss will be above high of the Alert Candle and minimum target will be 1:3.
Strategy for Buying (Buy future/Call/stock or sell Put)
When ever a Candle closes completely below 5 ema (no part of candle should be touching the 5ema), then that candle should be considered as Alert Candle.
If the next candle is also completely below 5 ema and it has not broken the high of previous alert candle, Then the previous Alert Candle should be ignored and the new candle should be considered as new Alert Candle.
so if this goes on then continue shifting the Alert Candle, but whenever the next candle breaks the high of the Alert Candle we should take the Long trade (Buy future/Call/stock or sell Put).
Stoploss will be below low of the Alert Candle and minimum target will be 1:3.
Buy/Sell with extra conditions :
it just adds 1 more condition to buying/selling
1. checks if closing of current candle is lower than alert candles closing for Selling & checks if closing of current candle is higher than alert candles closing for Buyling.
This can sometimes save you from false moves but by using this, you can also miss out on big moves as you'll enter trade after candle closing instead of entering at break of high/low.
Note :- According to Subhashish Pani Timeframe for intraday buying should be 15 minutes Timeframe.
If you haven't understood the strategy by reading above description, then search for "Subhashish Pani's (power of stocks) 5 EMA Strategy" on YouTube to get a deeper understanding.
Note:- This is not only for Intraday trading , you can use this strategy for Positional/Swing trading as well. If you use this on Monthly Timeframe then it can be very good for Long Term Investing as well.
Rules will be same for all types of trades & Timeframes.
Moving average of 1-period Percent ChangeAnother way of finding the average range of the bars using 1 period percentage change of the price and taking an average of them. It's given in percentages and the absolute value of the average can be shown when the option is turned on, or the average including the up and down bars can be shown. Perhaps an alternative way of looking at volatility or range of the bars. If you prefer a line version over histogram, just simply change the style under the settings of the indicator.
Exponential Regression Slope Annualized with R-squared HistogramMy other indicator shows the linear regression slope of the source. This one finds the exponential regression slope and optionally multiplies it by R-squared and optionally annualizes it. Multiplying by R-squared makes sure that the price movement was significant in order to avoid volatile movements that can throw off the slope value. Annualizing the exponential slope will let you see how much percentage you will make in a year if the price continues at its current pace.
The annualized number is the number of trading days in a year. This and the length might need adjusting for the extra bars that might be in futures or other markets. The number does not have to be a year. For example, it can be a month if you set the number to 20 or so trading days to find how much you would make in a month if price continues at its current pace, etc. This can also be used as an alternative to relative strength or rate of change.

Another view the Commitment of Traders (CoT) data
Since the Commercials are often a good indicator for future market movements, I tampered a little bit with their positioning (long or short) in relation to the open interest to visualize some kind of "commercial buying (long) or selling (short) power". It's definitely nothing more than work in progress, but I decided to publish it anyway. Critical comments are mostly welcome.
Deutsch:
Ein weiterer Blick auf die Commitment of Traders (CoT) Daten
Da die Commercials häufig ein guter Indikator für zukünftige Marktbewegungen sind, habe ich ein wenig mit ihrer Positionierung (long oder short) im Verhältnis zum Open Interest herumgebastelt, um eine Art von "kommerzieller Kauf- (long) oder Verkaufs-Kraft" abzubilden. Es ist momentan noch im absoluten Teststadium, aber ich habe mich dazu entschlossen, es trotzdem zu veröffentlichen. Kritische Anmerkungen sind sehr willkommen.
Balance of Power [Lake Oats] Balance of Power indicator - Useful tool for finding great Timing upon Entering Postions and Existing Postions, Also Useful for finding Normal and Hidden Divergences
HEIKIN ASHI COLOUR CHANGE ALERTThis can be used to trigger an alert if Heikin Ashi bar changes color :)
Rate Of Change - Absolute ValueMeasures the period's change in terms of the instrument's value (e.g. pip, dollar, etc) instead of as a percentage. I generally use it on a daily time frame with a period=1 to see how the current day's move compares with prior days' moves in order to gain a perspective into how this move ranks historically.
SN Smoothed Balance of Power v2Hi all,
here is an updated version of the indicator script I published yesterday.
The goal of this indicator is to try and find darkpool activity. The indicator itself is not enough to fully identify darkpool but it should be able to detect quiet accumulation. What makes this Balance of Power different from others on TV is that it is smoothed by using a moving average.
Notes:
- The values that are default are completely arbitrary except for the VWMA length (a 14-day period for the 1D chart is the norm). For instance the limit where it shows red/green I picked because it works best for the 1D chart I am using. Other TF's and charts will need tweaking of all the values you find in the options menu to get the best results.
- I modified the indicator such that it is usable on charts that do not show volume. HOWEVER, this chart is default to NYMEX: CL1!. To get different volume data this needs to be changed in the option menu.
- I am in no way an expert on darkpool/HFT trading and am merely going from the information I found on the internet. Consider this an experiment.
