Candle-Based Negative Space (Improved)This script visualizes the concept of negative space (when a candle closes below a defined baseline) and positive space (when a candle closes above the baseline) on a price chart. It uses user-defined inputs to configure the baseline and optionally includes a moving average for additional trend analysis. Below is a detailed explanation of the script and suggestions for improving its plotting.
Explanation of the Script
Purpose
The script helps traders visualize the relationship between price movements and a dynamically chosen baseline. The baseline can be based on:
The high/low of the previous candle.
The open/close of the current candle.
The "negative space" is calculated when the closing price is below the baseline, and the "positive space" is calculated when the closing price is above the baseline. The sum of these spaces over a period is plotted as a histogram to provide insights into market strength.
ForecastPro by BinhMyco1. Overview:
This Pine Script implements a custom forecasting tool on TradingView, labeled "BinhMyco." It provides a method to predict future price movements based on historical data and a comparison with similar historical patterns. The script supports two types of forecasts: **Prediction** and **Replication**, where the forecasted price can be either based on price peaks/troughs or an average direction. The script also calculates a confidence probability, showing how closely the forecasted data aligns with historical trends.
2. Inputs:
- Source (`src`): The input data source for forecasting, which defaults to `open`.
- Length (`len`): The length of the training data used for analysis (fixed at 200).
- Reference Length (`leng`): A fixed reference length for comparing similar historical patterns (set to 70).
- Forecast Length (`length`): The length of the forecast period (fixed at 60).
- Multiplier (`mult`): A constant multiplier for the forecast confidence cone (set to 4.0).
- Forecast Type (`typ`): Type of forecast, either **Prediction** or **Replication**.
- Direction Type (`dirtyp`): Defines how the forecast is calculated — either based on price **peaks/troughs** or an **average direction**.
- Forecast Divergence Cone (`divcone`): A boolean option to enable the display of a confidence cone around the forecast.
3. Color Constants:
- Green (`#00ffbb`): Color used for upward price movements.
- Red (`#ff0000`): Color used for downward price movements.
- Reference Data Color (`refcol`): Blue color for the reference data.
- Similar Data Color (`simcol`): Orange color for the most similar data.
- Forecast Data Color (`forcol`): Yellow color for forecasted data.
4. Error Checking:
- The script checks if the reference length is greater than half the training data length, and if the forecast length exceeds the reference length, raising errors if either condition is true.
5. Arrays for Calculation:
- Correlation Array (`c`): Holds the correlation values between the data source (`src`) and historical data points.
- Index Array (`index`): Stores the indices of the historical data for comparison.
6. Forecasting Logic:
- Correlation Calculation: The script calculates the correlation between the historical data (`src`) and the reference data over the given reference length. It then identifies the point in history most similar to the current data.
- Forecast Price Calculation: Based on the type of forecast (Prediction or Replication), the script calculates future prices either by predicting based on similar bars or by replicating past data. The forecasted prices are stored in the `forecastPrices` array.
- Forecast Line Drawing: The script draws lines to represent the forecasted price movements. These lines are color-coded based on whether the forecasted price is higher or lower than the current price.
7. Divergence Cone (Optional):
- If the **divcone** option is enabled, the script calculates and draws a confidence cone around the forecasted prices. The upper and lower bounds of the cone are calculated using a standard deviation factor, providing a visual representation of forecast uncertainty.
8. Probability Table:
- A table is displayed on the chart, showing the probability of the forecast being accurate. This probability is calculated using the correlation between the current data and the most similar historical pattern. If the probability is positive, the table background turns green; if negative, it turns red. The probability is presented as a percentage.
9. Key Functions:
- `highest_range` and `lowest_range`: Functions to find the highest and lowest price within a range of bars.
- `ftype`: Determines the forecast type (Prediction or Replication) and adjusts the forecasting logic accordingly.
- `ftypediff`: Computes the difference between the forecasted and actual prices based on the selected forecast type.
- `ftypelim`, `ftypeleft`, `ftyperight`: Additional functions to adjust the calculation of the forecast based on the forecast type.
10. Conclusion:
The "ForecastPro" script is a unique tool for forecasting future price movements on TradingView. It compares historical price data with similar historical trends to generate predictions. The script also offers a customizable confidence cone and displays the probability of the forecast's accuracy. This tool provides traders with valuable insights into future price action, potentially enhancing decision-making in trading strategies.

Trend Battery [Phantom]Trend Battery
Visualize Trend Strength with a Dynamic EMA Power Gauge
OVERVIEW
The Trend Battery indicator offers a clear, visual representation of trend strength based on the alignment of multiple Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). It assigns a color-coded score to each bar, helping traders quickly assess the prevailing trend's power and direction.
CONCEPT
• Trend Strength Using EMAs: The indicator analyzes the alignment of 20 EMAs (8 to 200 periods) to gauge trend strength. The more EMAs align, the stronger the trend.
• Gradient-Based Visualization: Scores are mapped to a color gradient, transitioning from green (bullish) to purple (bearish), providing an intuitive visual representation of trend momentum.
HOW IT WORKS
Trend Battery calculates 20 EMAs and evaluates their alignment. When EMAs align in a strong trend, the bar colors change (as displayed in battery color key on chart) displaying a spectrum of colors from bright green (strong uptrend) to deep purple (strong downtrend).
• Dynamic Bar Colors:
o Green hues: Strong bullish trends.
o Purple hues: Strong bearish trends.
o Red hues: Weaker trends or potential transitions.
FEATURES
• Dynamic Color Coding: Easy-to-read and instantly assess trend.
• Customizable Transparency: Adjust bar color opacity to your preference.
• Optional EMA Display: Toggle individual EMA lines on/off for additional context.
• Compact Battery View: Quick reference table displaying the gradient color mapping.
SETTINGS
• Transparency: Controls the opacity of bar colors.
• Show EMAs on Chart: Enables/disables plotting of EMA lines.
USAGE
• Identify trend strength and direction.
• Confirm trend reversals or continuations.
• Complement other indicators and strategies.
• Monitor multi-timeframe trends.
TRADE IDEAS:
• For larger timeframes purple hues can be used for accumulating and green hues for distribution.
• For smaller timeframes, color transitions could be a signal for trend reversal, or corrections.
• It is a good idea to use larger timeframes for overall trend directions, and smaller timeframes for entries.
LIMITATIONS
• Lagging Indicator: As the Trend Battery relies on Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), it is inherently a lagging indicator. This means it reflects past price action and may not always provide timely signals for rapid market changes or sudden reversals.
• False Signals in Sideways Markets: In ranging or consolidating markets, the indicator may produce mixed signals (frequent color changes) as EMAs intertwine without a clear trend. This can lead to false interpretations if not considered alongside other market context indicators.
• Not a Standalone System: The Trend Battery is designed to be a visual aid and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. It's most effective when combined with other technical analysis tools, such as oscillators, support/resistance levels, and fundamental analysis.
DISCLAIMER
Use the Trend Battery indicator in conjunction with other forms of analysis and risk management. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Santa's Secrets | FractalystSanta’s Secrets is a visually engaging trading tool that infuses holiday cheer into your charts. Inspired by the enchanting, mysterious vibes of the holiday season, this indicator overlays price charts with dynamic, multi-colored glitches that sync with market data, delivering a festive and whimsical visual experience.
The indicator brings a magical touch to your charts, featuring characters from classic holiday themes (e.g., Santa, reindeer, snowflakes, gift boxes) to create a fun and festive “glitch effect.” Users can select a theme for their matrix characters, adding a holiday twist to their trading visuals. As the market data moves, these themed characters are randomly picked and displayed on the chart in a colorful cascade.
Underlying Calculations and Logic
1.Character Management:
The indicator uses arrays to manage different sets of holiday-themed characters, such as Santa’s sleigh, snowflakes, and reindeer. These arrays allow dynamic selection and update of characters as the market moves, mimicking a festive glitch effect.

ATR Oscillator with Dots and Dynamic Zero LineWhat It Is
The ATR Oscillator with Dots and Dynamic Zero Line is a custom indicator based on the Average True Range (ATR), designed to provide traders with enhanced insights into market volatility and directional bias. Unlike traditional ATR oscillators that plot continuous lines, this version uses distinct dots to display ATR values and includes a dynamic zero line that changes color based on market direction (uptrend, downtrend, or consolidation).
How It Works
ATR Calculation:
The indicator calculates the Average True Range over a user-defined period (default: 14 bars). ATR measures market volatility by considering the range between the high, low, and close of each bar.
Dots for ATR Values:
Instead of plotting ATR values as a continuous line, the indicator represents each value as an individual blue dot. This format highlights changes in volatility without visually connecting them, helping to avoid false trends and clutter.
Dynamic Zero Line:
A horizontal zero line provides additional directional context. The line changes color dynamically:
Green: Indicates an uptrend (price is consistently closing higher over consecutive bars).
Red: Indicates a downtrend (price is consistently closing lower over consecutive bars).
Gray: Indicates market consolidation or sideways movement (no clear trend in price).
The thickness and step-like style of the zero line make it visually prominent, enabling quick interpretation of market direction.
What It Does
Visualizes Market Volatility:
By plotting ATR values as dots, the oscillator emphasizes periods of heightened or reduced market activity, helping traders anticipate breakout opportunities or avoid low-volatility zones.
Provides Trend Context:
The dynamic zero line gives traders a clear signal of the prevailing market trend (uptrend, downtrend, or consolidation), which can be used to align trading strategies with the broader market context.
Avoids Misleading Trends:
Unlike traditional ATR oscillators that use continuous lines, this version eliminates visual artifacts caused by noise, such as false trends during consolidation periods.
Simplifies Interpretation:
The combination of ATR dots and a color-coded zero line creates a straightforward and intuitive tool for assessing both volatility and market direction.
Why It’s More Useful Than a Traditional ATR Oscillator
Enhanced Visibility:
The use of dots instead of a continuous line makes it easier to spot discrete changes in ATR values, avoiding visual clutter and false impressions of smooth trends.
Dynamic Market Context:
Traditional ATR oscillators only measure volatility, offering no indication of market direction. The dynamic zero line in this oscillator adds valuable directional context, helping traders align their strategies with the trend.
Better for Range-Bound Markets:
The zero line’s color-changing feature highlights consolidation periods, enabling traders to identify and avoid trading during sideways, low-volatility conditions where false signals are common.
Quick Decision-Making:
With clear visual cues (dots and color-coded lines), traders can quickly assess market conditions without needing to analyze multiple charts or indicators.
Improved Confluence:
The oscillator’s signals can easily be combined with other tools like VWAP, Volume Profile, or Order Flow indicators for more confident trade decisions.
When to Use It
Trending Markets:
Use the dynamic zero line to confirm the market’s direction and align trades accordingly.
Breakout Opportunities:
Look for periods of increasing ATR (dots moving higher) to anticipate high-volatility breakout scenarios.
Avoiding Noise:
During consolidation (gray zero line), this oscillator warns traders to wait for clearer signals before entering trades.
Swing-Based VWAPSwing-Based VWAP
Summary:
The "Swing-Based VWAP" indicator enhances traditional VWAP calculations by incorporating swing-based logic. It dynamically adapts to market conditions by identifying key swing highs and lows and calculating VWAP levels around these pivot points. This makes it a versatile tool for traders seeking actionable price insights.
Explanation:
What is Swing-Based VWAP?
The Swing-Based VWAP is a modified version of the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP).

Pivot PointsPivot Points Indicator
The Pivot Points indicator highlights areas on the chart where candles close in opposite colors. These points occur when the price shifts from bullish to bearish, or vice versa, indicating potential reversals or continuation patterns. These points are more easily seen on a line chart and represent areas where the price changes direction to create peak formations.
Foundational Concepts
Before diving into the indicator, it’s important to understand a few key concepts:
When price is trending upward, it creates higher highs and higher lows. Each high or low acts as a pivot point. In an uptrend, the price is more likely to break the previous high (pivot point) and continue higher. You can enter a buy trade when the price breaks the previous high, anticipating the continuation of the trend.
When price is trending downward, it creates lower lows and lower highs. Each high or low is also a pivot point. In a downtrend, the price is more likely to break the previous low (pivot point) and continue lower. You can enter a sell trade when the price breaks the previous low, anticipating the continuation of the trend.
For reversal trades, it’s helpful to be familiar with chart patterns like double tops, double bottoms, and head and shoulders. The Pivot Points indicator can assist in identifying these patterns, helping you determine entry points, as well as where to place your stop loss.
Recommended Setup
It’s recommended to have two charts open side by side: one displaying a line chart and the other showing a candlestick chart, with the Pivot Points indicator applied to both. This setup allows you to easily identify the market structure and price action as it approaches these levels. You can also add a 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) to both charts to help identify the overall trend. Additionally, consider adding the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to the line chart to confirm overbought or oversold conditions.
This approach can be used on any timeframe.

[blackcat] L2 Quantitative Trading Reference█ OVERVIEW
The script " L2 Quantitative Trading Reference" calculates and plots various directional indicators based on price movements over a specified period. It primarily focuses on identifying trends, trend strength, and specific candlestick patterns such as strong bearish candles.
█ LOGICAL FRAMEWORK
The script consists of several main components:
Input Parameters:
None explicitly set; however, implicit inputs include high, low, and close prices.
Custom Functions:
count_periods: Counts occurrences of a condition within a given lookback period.
every_condition: Checks if a condition holds true for an entire lookback period.
calculate_and_plot_directional_indicators: Computes directional movement indices and determines market conditions like direction, strength, and specific candle types.
Calculations:
• The script calculates the True Range, differences between highs/lows, and computes directional movement indices.
• It then uses these indices to determine the current market direction, strength, and identifies strong bearish candles.
Plotting:
• Plots histograms representing different conditions including negative directional movement in red, positive directional movement in green, continuous strength in yellow, and strong bearish candles in aqua.
Data flows from the calculation of basic price metrics through more complex computations involving sums and comparisons before being plotted according to their respective conditions.
█ CUSTOM FUNCTIONS
count_periods:
Counts how many times a certain condition occurs within a specified number of periods.
every_condition:
Determines whether a particular condition has been met continuously throughout a specified number of periods.
calculate_and_plot_directional_indicators:
This function encompasses multiple tasks including calculating the True Range, Positive/Negative Directional Movements and Indices, determining the market direction, assessing strength via bar continuity since the last change, and identifying strong bearish candles. It returns four arrays containing directional movement, positivity status, continuous strength, and strong bearish candle occurrence respectively.
█ KEY POINTS AND TECHNIQUES
• Utilizes custom functions for modular and reusable code.
• Employs math.sum and ta.barssince for efficient computation of cumulative values and counting bars since a condition was met.
• Uses ternary operators (condition ? value_if_true : value_if_false) extensively for concise conditional assignments.
• Leverages Pine Script’s built-in mathematical functions (math.max, math.min, etc.) for robust financial metric calculations.
• Implements histogram plotting styles to visually represent distinct market states effectively.
█ EXTENDED KNOWLEDGE AND APPLICATIONS
Potential enhancements can involve adding alerts when specific conditions are met, incorporating additional technical indicators, or refining existing logic for better accuracy. This script's approach could be adapted for creating strategies that react to changes in market dynamics identified by these directional indicators. Related topics worth exploring in Pine Script include backtesting frameworks, multi-timeframe analysis, risk management techniques, and integration with external data sources.

TS Aggregated Median Absolute DeviationTS Aggregated Median Absolute Deviation (MAD) Indicator Explanation
Overview
The TS Aggregated Median Absolute Deviation (MAD) is a powerful indicator designed for traders looking for momentum-based strategies. By aggregating the Median Absolute Deviation (MAD) across multiple timeframes, it provides a comprehensive view of market dynamics. This indicator helps identify potential reversal points, overbought/oversold conditions, and general market trends by leveraging the concept of MAD, which measures price dispersion from the median.
Signal Generation:
Long Signal: Triggered when the price moves above the aggregated upper band
Short Signal: Triggered when the price moves below the aggregated red band
Alerts:
Real-time alerts are integrated to notify the user of long or short signals when confirmed:
Long Signal Alert: "TS MAD Flipped ⬆LONG⬆"
Short Signal Alert: "TS MAD Flipped ⬇Short⬇"
Optimization:
Adjust thresholds, MAD lengths, and multipliers for each timeframe to suit the specific asset and market conditions.
Experiment with enabling/disabling MAD components to focus on particular timeframes.

Directional Volume IndexDirectional Volume Index (DVI) (buying/selling pressure)
This index is adapted from the Directional Movement Index (DMI), but based on volume instead of price movements. The idea is to detect building directional volume indicating a growing amount of orders that will eventually cause the price to follow. (DVI is not displayed by default)
The rough algorithm for the Positive Directional Volume Index (green bar):
calculate the delta to the previous green bar's volume
if the delta is positive (growing buying pressure) add it to an SMA, else add 0 (also for red bars)
divide these average deltas by the average volume
the result is the Positive Directional Volume Index (DVI+) (vice versa for DVI-)
Differential Directional Volume Index (DDVI) (relative pressure)
Creating the difference of both Directional Volume Indexes (DVI+ - DVI-) creates the Differential Directional Volume Index (DDVI) with rising values indicating a growing buying pressure, falling values a growing selling pressure. (DDVI is displayed by default, smoothed by a custom moving average)
Average Directional Volume Index (ADVX) (pressure strength)
Putting the relative pressure (DDVI) in relation to the total pressure (DVI+ + DVI-) we can determine the strength and duration of the currently building volume change / trend. For the DMI/ADX usually 20 is an indicator for a strong trend, values above 50 suggesting exhaustion and approaching reversals. (ADVX is not displayed by default, smoothed by a custom moving average)
Divergences of the Differential Directional Volume Index (DDVI) (imbalances)
By detecting divergences we can detect situations where e.g. bullish volume starts to build while price is in a downtrend, suggesting that there is growing buying pressure indicating an imminent bullish pullback/order block or reversal. (strong and hidden divergences are displayed by default)
Divergences Overview:
strong bull: higher lows on volume, lower lows on price
medium bull: higher lows on volume, equal lows on price
weak bull: equal lows on volume, lower lows on price
hidden bull: lower lows on volume, higher lows on price
strong bear: lower highs on volume, higher highs on price
medium bear: lower highs on volume, equal highs on price
weak bear: equal highs on volume, higher highs on price
hidden bear: higher highs on volume, lower highs on price
DDVI Bands (dynamic overbought/oversold levels)
Using Bollinger Bands with DDVI as source we receive an averaged relative pressure with stdev band offsets. This can be used as dynamic overbought/oversold levels indicating reversals on sharp crossovers.
Alerts
As of now there are no alerts built in, but all internal data is exposed via plot and plotshape functions, so it can be used for custom crossover conditions in the alert dialog. This is still a personal research project, so if you find good setups, please let me know.
