Information Asymmetry Gradient (IAG) What is the Information Asymmetry Gradient (IAG)?
The Information Asymmetry Gradient (IAG) is a unique market regime and imbalance detector that quantifies the subtle, directional “information flow” in price and volume. Inspired by information theory and market microstructure, IAG is designed to help traders spot the early buildup of conviction or surprise—the kind of hidden imbalance that often precedes major price moves.
Unlike traditional volume or momentum indicators, IAG focuses on the efficiency and directionality of information transfer: how much “informational energy” is being revealed by up-moves versus down-moves, normalized by price movement. It’s not just about net flow, but about the quality and asymmetry of that flow.
Theoretical Foundation
Information Asymmetry: Markets move when new information is revealed. If one side (buyers or sellers) is consistently more “informationally efficient” per unit of price change, an imbalance is building—even if price hasn’t moved much yet.
Gradient: By tracking the rate of change (gradient) between fast and slow information flows, IAG highlights when a subtle imbalance is accelerating.
Volatility of Asymmetry: Sudden spikes in the volatility of information asymmetry often signal regime uncertainty or the approach of a “surprise” move.
How IAG Works
Directional Information Content: For each bar, IAG estimates the “information per unit of price change” for both up-moves and down-moves, using volume and price action.
Asymmetry Calculation: Computes the difference (or ratio) between up and down information content, revealing directional bias.
Gradient Detection: Calculates both a fast and slow EMA of the asymmetry, then measures their difference (the “gradient”), normalized as a Z-score.
Volatility of Asymmetry: Tracks the standard deviation of asymmetry over a rolling window, with Z-score normalization to spot “information shocks.”
Flow Strength: Quantifies the conviction of the current information flow on a 0–100 scale.
Regime Detection: Flags “extreme” asymmetry, “building” flow, and “high volatility” states.
Inputs:
🌌 Core Asymmetry Parameters
Fast Information Period (short_len, default 8): EMA period for detecting immediate information flow changes.
5–8: Scalping (1–5min)
8–12: Day trading (15min–1hr)

Originality & Usefulness
IAG is not a mashup of existing indicators. It is a novel approach to quantifying the “surprise” or “conviction” element in market moves, focusing on the efficiency and directionality of information transfer per unit of price change. The multi-layered color logic, artistic visual effects, and regime dashboard are unique to this script. IAG is designed for anticipation, not confirmation—helping you see subtle imbalances before they become obvious in price.

Statistics
multi-tf standard devs [keypoems]Multi-Timeframe Standard Deviations Levels
A visual map of “how far is too far” across any three higher time-frames.
1. What it does
This script plots dynamic price “rails” built from standard deviation (StDev)—the same math that underpins the bell curve—on up to three higher-time-frames (HTFs) at once.
• It measures the volatility of intraday open-to-close increments, reaching back as far as 5000 bars (≈ 20 years on daily data).
• Each HTF can be extended to the next session or truncated at session close for tidy dashboards.
• Lines can be mirrored so you see symmetric positive/negative bands, and optional background fills shade the “probability cone.”
Because ≈ 68 % of moves live inside ±1 StDev, ≈ 95 % inside ±2, and ≈ 99.7 % inside ±3, the plot instantly shows when price is statistically stretched or compressed.
3. Key settings
Higher Time-Frame #1-3 Turn each HTF on/off, pick the interval (anything from 1 min to 1 year), and decide whether lines should extend into the next period.
Show levels for last X days Keep your chart clean by limiting how many historical sessions are displayed (1-50).
Based on last X periods Length of the StDev sample. Long look-backs (e.g. 5 000) iron-out day-to-day noise; short look-backs make the bands flex with recent volatility.
Fib Settings Toggle each multiple, line thickness/style/colour, label size, whether to print the numeric level, the live price, the HTF label, and whether to tint the background (choose your own opacity).
4. Under-the-hood notes
StDev is calculated on (close – open) / open rather than absolute prices, making the band width scale-agnostic.
Watch for tests of ±1:
Momentum traders ride the breakout with a target at the next band.
Mean-reversion traders wait for the first stall candle and trade back to zero line or VWAP.
Bottom line: Multi-Timeframe Standard-Deviations turns raw volatility math into an intuitive “price terrain map,” helping you instantly judge whether a move is ordinary, stretched, or extreme—across the time-frames that matter to you.

Bullish Volume AnomalyAnomaly is designed to spot hidden bullish accumulation before price actually breaks out, by blending a trend-aware volume measure with a volatility-adjusted price channel. Here’s how it works:
First, it runs a simple ATR-based zigzag to identify the current swing direction. Volume is then signed (+ for up-trends, – for down-trends) and cumulatively summed. By converting that cumulative signed volume into a z-score over the past 480 bars, we get a sense of when buying or selling pressure is unusually strong relative to its own history.
At the same time, price itself is normalized into a z-score over the same 480-bar window, and its change over that period is also tracked. These two measures—volume z-score (s) and price z-score (p)—are compared, and the indicator looks for moments when s outpaces p by at least two standard deviations (s – p > 2), while price momentum change remains low (c < 1) and the net volume is positive (s > 0). That combination flags instances where heavy buying is taking place but price hasn’t yet reacted.
To define a dynamic trading zone, it plots a 288-bar EMA of price as the middle band (t2), and builds upper and lower bands around it using the average close-to-open range multiplied by a user-set factor. The lower band (t1) sits beneath the EMA by that volatility-based margin. A signal fires only when the bar’s high stays below t1—meaning price is still “sleeping” under the lower volatility boundary even as bullish volume builds up.
Together, these filters home in on anomalies: strong, trend-aligned volume surges that outstrip price movement, occurring while price sits below its lower volatility band. In practice, that often marks early accumulation before a breakout. You can tweak the ATR length and multiplier for the zigzag, as well as the channel period and range factor, to suit different markets or timeframes.
Normalized DXY+Custom USD Index (DXY+) – Normalized Dollar Strength with Bitcoin, Gold, and Yuan.
This custom USD strength index replicates the structure of the official U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), while expanding it to include modern financial assets such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), gold (XAU), and the Chinese yuan (CNY).
Weights for the core fiat currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF) follow the official ICE DXY methodology. Additional components are weighted proportionally based on their estimated global economic influence.
The index is normalized from its initial valid data point, meaning it starts at 100 on the first day all asset inputs are available. From that point forward, it tracks the relative strength of the U.S. dollar against this expanded basket.
This provides a more comprehensive and modernized view of the dollar's strength—not only against traditional fiat currencies, but also in the context of rising decentralized assets and non-Western trade power.
HGDA Hany Ghazy Digital Analytics area zone'sIndicator Name: HGDA Hany Ghazy Digital Analytics area zones
Description:
This indicator plots several key price zones based on the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period.
The plotted zones represent dynamic support and resistance levels calculated using specific ratios of the price range (High - Low), as follows:
- Zone 1 (Light Red): Represents an upper resistance zone.
- Zone 2 (Medium Green): Represents a medium support zone.
- Zone 3 (Dark Red): Represents a lower resistance zone.
- Zone 4 (Dark Green): Represents a strong support zone.
Additionally, the indicator plots a yellow "Zero" line representing the midpoint price of the selected period, serving as a balance point for price action.
This indicator is ideal for identifying the overall market trend, as prices typically move from the upper resistance zones (light red) downwards to the end of the wave in the lower zones (dark green). This helps traders better understand wave nature and direction.
Usage:
- The colored zones assist in identifying potential reversal or continuation areas.
- These zones can be used to plan entries, exits, and risk management.
- Default lookback period is 20 bars, adjustable in the settings to suit the timeframe.
Notes:
- This indicator relies on historical price data and does not guarantee market predictions.
- It is recommended to combine it with other indicators and analytical tools for improved trading decisions.

Custom USD IndexThis is a modernized, expanded version of the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), designed to provide a more accurate representation of the dollar’s global strength in today’s diversified economy.
Unlike the traditional DXY, which excludes major players like China and entirely omits real-world stores of value, this custom index (DXY+) includes:
Fiat Currencies (78.3% total weight):
EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, AUD, CHF, and CNY — equally weighted to reflect the global currency landscape.
Gold (17.5%):
Gold (XAUUSD) is included as a traditional reserve asset and inflation hedge, acknowledging its continued monetary relevance.
Cryptocurrencies (2.8% total weight):
Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) represent the emerging digital monetary layer.
The index rises when the U.S. dollar strengthens relative to this blended basket, and falls when the dollar weakens against it. This is ideal for traders, economists, and macro analysts seeking a more inclusive and up-to-date measure of dollar performance.

SOFR Spread (proxy: FEDFUNDS - US03MY)📊 SOFR Spread (Proxy: FEDFUNDS - US03MY) – Monitoring USD Money Market Liquidity
In 2008, the spread exhibits a sharp vertical spike, signaling a severe liquidity dislocation: investors rushed into short-term U.S. Treasuries, pushing their yields down dramatically, while the FEDFUNDS rate remained relatively high.
This behavior indicates extreme systemic stress in the interbank lending market, preceding massive Federal Reserve interventions such as rate cuts, emergency liquidity operations, and the launch of quantitative easing (QE).
Description:
This indicator plots the spread between the Effective Federal Funds Rate (FEDFUNDS) and the 3-Month US Treasury Bill yield (US03MY), used here as a proxy for the SOFR spread.
It serves as a simple yet powerful tool to detect liquidity dislocations and stress signals in the US short-term funding markets.
Interpretation:
🔴 Spread > 0.20% → Possible liquidity stress: elevated repo rates, cash shortage, interbank distrust.
🟡 Spread ≈ 0% → Normal market conditions, balanced liquidity.
🟢 Spread < 0% → Excess liquidity: strong demand for T-Bills, “flight to safety”, or distortion due to expansionary monetary policy.
Ideal for:
Monitoring Fed policy impact
Anticipating market-wide liquidity squeezes
Correlation with DXY, SPX, VIX, MOVE Index, and risk sentiment
🧠 Note: As SOFR is not directly available on TradingView, FEDFUNDS is used as a reliable proxy, closely tracking the same trends in most macro conditions.
LANZ Strategy 2.0 [Backtest]🔷 LANZ Strategy 2.0 — Structural Breakout Logic with Dynamic Swing Protection
LANZ Strategy 2.0 is a precision-focused backtesting system built for intraday traders who rely on structural confirmations before the London session to guide directional bias. This tool uses smart swing detection, risk-defined position sizing, and strict time-based execution to simulate real trading conditions with clarity and control.
🧠 Core Components:
Structural Confirmation (Trend & BoS): Detects trend direction and break of structure (BoS) using a three-swing logic, aligning trade entries with valid structural movement.
Time-Based Execution: Trades are triggered exclusively at 02:00 a.m. New York time, ensuring disciplined and repeatable intraday testing.
Swing-Based SL Models: Traders can select between three stop-loss protection types:
First Swing: Most recent structural level
Second Swing: Prior level
Full Coverage: All recent swing levels + configurable pip buffer
Dynamic TP Calculation: Take-Profit is projected as a risk-based multiple (RR), fully adjustable via input.
Capital-Based Risk Management: Risk is defined as a percentage of a fixed account size (e.g., $100 per trade from $10,000), and lot size is automatically calculated based on SL distance.
Fallback Entry Logic: If structural breakout is present but trend is not confirmed, a secondary entry is triggered.
End-of-Session Management: Any open trades are automatically closed at 11:45 a.m. NY time, with optional manual labeling or review.
📊 Visual Features (Optional in Indicator Version):

Statistical Pairs Trading IndicatorZ-Score Stat Trading — Statistical Pairs Trading Indicator
📊🔗
---
What is it?
Z-Score Stat Trading is a powerful indicator for statistical pairs trading and quantitative analysis of two correlated assets.
It calculates the Z-Score of the log-price spread between any two symbols you choose, providing both long-term and short-term Z-Score signals.
You’ll also see real-time correlation, volatility, spread, and the number of long/short signals in a handy on-chart table!
---
How to Use 🛠️
1. Add the indicator to your chart.
2. Select two assets (symbols) to analyze in the settings.
3. Watch the Z-Score plots (blue and orange lines) and threshold levels (+2, -2 by default).
4. Check the info table for:
- Correlation
- Volatility
- Spread
- Number of long (NL) and short (NS) signals in the last 1000 bars
5. Set up alerts for signal generation or threshold crossings if you want to be notified automatically.
---
Trading Strategy 💡
- This indicator is designed for statistical arbitrage (mean reversion) strategies.
- Long Signal (🟢):
When both Z-Scores drop below the negative threshold (e.g., -2), a long signal is generated.
→ Buy Symbol A, Sell Symbol B, expecting the spread to revert to the mean.
- Short Signal (🔴):
When both Z-Scores rise above the positive threshold (e.g., +2), a short signal is generated.
→ Sell Symbol A, Buy Symbol B, again expecting mean reversion.
- The info table helps you quickly assess the frequency of signals and the current statistical relationship between your chosen assets.
---
Best Practices & Warnings 🚦
- Avoid high leverage! Pairs trading can be risky, especially during periods of divergence. Use conservative position sizing.
- Check for cointegration: Before using this indicator, make sure both assets are cointegrated or have a strong historical relationship. This increases the reliability of mean reversion signals.
- Check correlation: Only use asset pairs with a high correlation (preferably 0.8–0.9 or higher) for best results. The correlation value is shown in the info table.
- Scale in and out gradually: When entering or exiting positions, consider doing so in parts rather than all at once. This helps manage slippage and risk, especially in volatile markets.
---
⚠️ Note on Performance:
This indicator may work a bit slowly, especially on large timeframes or long chart histories, because the calculation of NL and NS (number of long/short signals) is computationally intensive.

Fibo Normalized RSI & RSI RibbonPlots both standard and Z-score normalized RSI ribbons using Fibonacci-based periods. Supports adjustable normalization, optional 0–100 scaling, and multi-line visualizations for momentum and deviation analysis.
This tool is designed for traders who want to go beyond standard RSI by adding:
Statistical normalization (Z-score)
Multi-period analysis (Fibonacci structure)
Advanced divergence and exhaustion detection
It gives you both classical momentum context and mathematically rigorous deviation insight, making it ideal for:
Swing traders
Quant-inclined discretionary traders
Multi-timeframe analysts
Trend Confirmation
When both RSI and normalized RSI across short and long periods are stacked in the same direction (e.g., above 50 or with high Z-scores), the trend is likely strong.
Disagreement between the two ribbons (e.g., RSI high but normalized RSI flat) may indicate late-stage trend or false strength.
Mean Reversion Trades
Look for normalized RSI values > +2 or < -2 (i.e., ~2 standard deviations).
Cross-check with standard RSI to see if the move aligns with a traditional overbought/oversold level.
Great for fade/reversal setups when Z-score RSI is extreme but classic RSI is just beginning to turn.
Divergence Detection
Compare the slope of RSI vs. normalized RSI over same period:
If RSI is rising but normalized RSI is falling → momentum is fading despite apparent strength.
Excellent for early warnings before reversals.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Use short-period ribbons (e.g., 3–13) for tactical entries/exits.
Use long-period ribbons (e.g., 55–233) for macro trend bias.
Alignment across both = high-confidence zone.

Index Futures vs Cash ArbitrageThis indicator measures the statistical spread between major stock index futures and their corresponding cash indices (e.g., ES vs SPX, NQ vs NDX) using Z-score normalization. It automatically detects commonly traded index pairs (S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Russell 2000) and calculates a smoothed spread between futures and spot prices. A Z-score is then derived from this spread to highlight potential overpricing or underpricing conditions.
Traders can use customizable thresholds to identify mean-reversion opportunities where the futures contract may be temporarily overvalued or undervalued relative to the index. The histogram highlights the direction of the Z-score (green = futures > index, red = futures < index), while built-in alerts notify users of key threshold breaches or zero-line crosses.
This tool is designed for discretionary traders, pairs traders, or anyone exploring statistical arbitrage strategies between futures and spot markets. It is not a buy/sell signal by itself and should be used with additional confluence or risk management techniques.
Seasonality DOW CombinedOverall Purpose
This script analyzes historical daily returns based on two specific criteria:
Month of the year (January through December)
Day of the week (Sunday through Saturday)
It summarizes and visually displays the average historical performance of the selected asset by these criteria over multiple years.
Step-by-Step Breakdown
1. Initial Settings:
Defines minimum year (i_year_start) from which data analysis will start.
Ensures the user is using a daily timeframe, otherwise prompts an error.
Sets basic display preferences like text size and color schemes.
2. Data Collection and Variables:
Initializes matrices to store and aggregate returns data:
month_data_ and month_agg_: store monthly performance.
dow_data_ and dow_agg_: store day-of-week performance.
COUNT tracks total number of occurrences, and COUNT_POSITIVE tracks positive-return occurrences.
3. Return Calculation:
Calculates daily percentage change (chg_pct_) in price:
chg_pct_ = close / close - 1
Ensures it captures this data only for the specified years (year >= i_year_start).
4. Monthly Performance Calculation:
Each daily return is grouped by month:
matrix.set updates total returns per month.
The script tracks:
Monthly cumulative returns
Number of occurrences (how many days recorded per month)
Positive occurrences (days with positive returns)
5. Day-of-Week Performance Calculation:
Similarly, daily returns are also grouped by day-of-the-week (Sunday to Saturday):
Daily return values are summed per weekday.
The script tracks:
Cumulative returns per weekday
Number of occurrences per weekday
Positive occurrences per weekday
6. Visual Display (Tables):
The script creates two visual tables:
Left Table: Monthly Performance.
Right Table: Day-of-the-Week Performance.
For each table, it shows:
Yearly data for each month/day.
Summaries at the bottom:
SUM row: Shows total accumulated returns over all selected years for each month/day.
+ive row: Shows percentage (%) of times the month/day had positive returns, along with a tooltip displaying positive occurrences vs total occurrences.
Cells are color-coded:
Green for positive returns.
Red for negative returns.
Gray for neutral/no change.
7. Interpreting the Tables:
Monthly Table (left side):
Helps identify seasonal patterns (e.g., historically bullish/bearish months).
Day-of-Week Table (right side):
Helps detect recurring weekday patterns (e.g., historically bullish Mondays or bearish Fridays).
Practical Use:
Traders use this to:
Identify patterns based on historical data.
Inform trading strategies, e.g., avoiding historically bearish days/months or leveraging historically bullish periods.
Example Interpretation:
If the table shows consistently green (positive) for March and April, historically the asset tends to perform well during spring. Similarly, if the "Friday" column is often red, historically Fridays are bearish for this asset.

Anchored Probability Cone by TenozenFirst of all, credit to @nasu_is_gaji for the open source code of Log-Normal Price Forecast! He teaches me alot on how to use polylines and inverse normal distribution from his indicator, so check it out!
What is this indicator all about?
This indicator draws a probability cone that visualizes possible future price ranges with varying levels of statistical confidence using Inverse Normal Distribution , anchored to the start of a selected timeframe (4h, W, M, etc.)
Feutures:
Anchored Cone: Forecasts begin at the first bar of each chosen higher timeframe, offering a consistent point for analysis.
Drift & Volatility-Based Forecast: Uses log returns to estimate market volatility (smoothed using VWMA) and incorporates a trend angle that users can set manually.
Probabilistic Price Bands: Displays price ranges with 5 customizable confidence levels (e.g., 30%, 68%, 87%, 99%, 99,9%).
Dynamic Updating: Recalculates and redraws the cone at the start of each new anchor period.
How to use:
Choose the Anchored Timeframe (PineScript only be able to forecast 500 bars in the future, so if it doesn't plot, try adjusting to a lower anchored period).
You can set the Model Length, 100 sample is the default. The higher the sample size, the higher the bias towards the overall volatility. So better set the sample size in a balanced manner.
If the market is inside the 30% conifidence zone (gray color), most likely the market is sideways. If it's outside the 30% confidence zone, that means it would tend to trend and reach the other probability levels.
Always follow the trend, don't ever try to trade mean reversions if you don't know what you're doing, as mean reversion trades are riskier.
That's all guys! I hope this indicator helps! If there's any suggestions, I'm open for it! Thanks and goodluck on your trading journey!
BPCO Z-ScoreBPCO Z-Score with Scaled Z-Value and Table
Description:
This custom indicator calculates the Z-Score of a specified financial instrument (using the closing price as a placeholder for the BPCO value), scales the Z-Score between -2 and +2 based on user-defined thresholds, and displays it in a table for easy reference.
The indicator uses a simple moving average (SMA) and standard deviation to calculate the original Z-Score, and then scales the Z-Score within a specified range (from -2 to +2) based on the upper and lower thresholds set by the user.
Additionally, the scaled Z-Score is displayed in a separate table on the right side of the chart, providing a clear, numerical value for users to track and interpret.
Key Features:
BPCO Z-Score: Calculates the Z-Score using a simple moving average and standard deviation over a user-defined window (default: 365 days). This provides a measure of how far the current price is from its historical average in terms of standard deviations.
Scaled Z-Score: The original Z-Score is then scaled between -2 and +2, based on the user-specified upper and lower thresholds. The thresholds default to 3.5 (upper) and -1.5 (lower), and can be adjusted as needed.
Threshold Bands: Horizontal lines are plotted on the chart to represent the upper and lower thresholds. These help visualize when the Z-Score crosses critical levels, indicating potential market overbought or oversold conditions.
Dynamic Table Display: The scaled Z-Score is shown in a dynamic table at the top-right of the chart, providing a convenient reference for traders. The table updates automatically as the Z-Score fluctuates.
How to Use:
Adjust Time Window: The "Z-Score Period (Days)" input allows you to adjust the time period used for calculating the moving average and standard deviation. By default, this is set to 365 days (1 year), but you can adjust this depending on your analysis needs.
Set Upper and Lower Thresholds: Use the "BPCO Upper Threshold" and "BPCO Lower Threshold" inputs to define the bands for your Z-Score. The default values are 3.5 for the upper band and -1.5 for the lower band, but you can adjust them based on your strategy.
Interpret the Z-Score: The Z-Score provides a standardized measure of how far the current price (or BPCO value) is from its historical mean, relative to the volatility. A value above the upper threshold (e.g., 3.5) may indicate overbought conditions, while a value below the lower threshold (e.g., -1.5) may indicate oversold conditions.
Use the Scaled Z-Score: The scaled Z-Score is calculated based on the original Z-Score, but it is constrained to a range between -2 and +2. When the BPCO value hits the upper threshold (3.5), the scaled Z-Score will be +2, and when it hits the lower threshold (-1.5), the scaled Z-Score will be -2. This gives you a clear, easy-to-read value to interpret the market's condition.
Data Sources:
BPCO Data: In this indicator, the BPCO value is represented by the closing price of the asset. The calculation of the Z-Score and scaled Z-Score is based on this price data, but you can modify it to incorporate other data streams as needed (e.g., specific economic indicators or custom metrics).
Indicator Calculation: The Z-Score is calculated using the following formulas:
Mean (SMA): A simple moving average of the BPCO (close price) over the selected period (365 days by default).
Standard Deviation (Std): The standard deviation of the BPCO (close price) over the same period.
Z-Score: (Current BPCO - Mean) / Standard Deviation
Scaled Z-Score: The Z-Score is normalized to fall within a specified range (from -2 to +2), based on the upper and lower threshold inputs.
Important Notes:
Customization: The indicator allows users to adjust the period (window) for calculating the Z-Score, as well as the upper and lower thresholds to suit different timeframes and trading strategies.
Visual Aids: Horizontal lines are drawn to represent the upper and lower threshold levels, making it easy to visualize when the Z-Score crosses critical levels.
Limitations: This indicator relies on historical price data (or BPCO) and assumes that the standard deviation and mean are representative of future price behavior. It does not account for potential market shifts or extreme events that may fall outside historical norms.

ℹ️ Powered by Glassnode On-Chain Metrics
📈 Description:
This indicator visualizes the Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) for major cryptocurrencies — Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin — along with a dynamically normalized Z-Score. SOPR is a key on-chain metric that reflects whether coins moved on-chain are being sold at a profit or a loss.
🔍 SOPR is calculated using Glassnode’s entity-adjusted SOPR feed, and a custom SMA is applied to smooth the signal. The normalized Z-Score helps identify market sentiment extremes by scaling SOPR relative to its historical context.
📊 Features:
Selectable cryptocurrency: Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Litecoin
SOPR smoothed by user-defined SMA (default: 10 periods)
Upper & lower bounds (±4%) for SOPR, shown as red/green lines
Background highlighting when SOPR moves outside normal range
Normalized Z-Score scaled between –2 and +2
Live Z-Score display in a compact top-right table
🧮 Calculations:
SOPR data is sourced daily from Glassnode:
Bitcoin: XTVCBTC_SOPR

Litecoin: XTVCLTC_SOPR
Z-Score is calculated as:
SMA of SOPR over zscore_length periods
Standard deviation of SOPR
Z-Score = (SOPR – mean) / standard deviation
Z-Score is clamped between –2 and +2 for visual consistency
🎯 Interpretation:
SOPR > 1 implies coins are sold in profit
SOPR < 1 suggests coins are sold at a loss
When SOPR is significantly above or below its recent range (e.g., +4% or –4%), it may signal overheating or capitulation
The Z-Score contextualizes how extreme the current SOPR is relative to history

MVRVZ BTCMVRVZ BTC (Market Value to Realized Value Z-Score)
Description:
The MVRVZ BTC indicator provides insights into the relationship between the market value and realized value of Bitcoin, using the Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio, which is then adjusted using a Z-Score. This indicator highlights potential market extremes and helps in identifying overbought or oversold conditions, offering a unique perspective on Bitcoin's valuation.
How It Works:
MVRVZ is calculated by taking the difference between Bitcoin's Market Capitalization (MC) and Realized Capitalization (MCR), then dividing that by the Standard Deviation (Stdev) of the price over a specified period (usually 104 weeks).
The resulting value is plotted as the MVRVZ line, representing how far the market price deviates from its realized value.
Z-Score is then applied to the MVRVZ line, with the Z-Score bounded between +2 and -2, which allows it to be used within a consistent evaluation framework, regardless of how high or low the MVRVZ line goes. The Z-Score will reflect overbought or oversold conditions:
A Z-Score above +2 indicates the market is likely overbought (possible market top).
A Z-Score below -2 indicates the market is likely oversold (possible market bottom).
Values between -2 and +2 indicate more neutral market conditions.
How to Read the Indicator:
MVRVZ Line:
The MVRVZ line shows the relationship between market cap and realized cap. A higher value indicates the market is overvalued relative to the actual capital realized by holders.
The MVRVZ line can move above or below the top and bottom lines you define, which are adjustable according to your preferences. These lines act as trigger levels.
Top and Bottom Trigger Lines:
You can customize the Top Line and Bottom Line values to your preference.
When the MVRVZ line crosses the Top Line, the market might be considered overbought.
When the MVRVZ line crosses the Bottom Line, the market might be considered oversold.
SCDA Z-Score:
The Z-Score is displayed alongside the MVRVZ line and is bounded between -2 and +2. It scales proportionally based on the MVRVZ line's position relative to the top and bottom trigger lines.
The Z-Score ensures that even if the MVRVZ line moves beyond the trigger lines, the Z-Score will stay within the limits of -2 to +2, making it ideal for your custom evaluation system (SCDA).
Background Highlighting:
The background color changes when the MVRVZ line crosses key levels:
When the MVRVZ line exceeds the Top Trigger, the background turns red, indicating overbought conditions.
When the MVRVZ line falls below the Bottom Trigger, the background turns green, indicating oversold conditions.
Data Sources:
The data for the MVRVZ indicator is sourced from Glassnode and Coinmetrics, which provide the necessary values for:
BTC Market Cap (MC) – The total market capitalization of Bitcoin.
BTC Realized Market Cap (MCR) – The capitalization based on the price at which Bitcoin was last moved on the blockchain (realized value).
How to Use the Indicator:
Market Extremes:
Use the MVRVZ and Z-Score to spot potential market tops or bottoms.
A high Z-Score (above +2) suggests the market is overbought, while a low Z-Score (below -2) suggests the market is oversold.
Adjusting the Triggers:
Customize the Top and Bottom Trigger Lines to suit your trading strategy. These lines can act as dynamic reference points for when to take action based on the Z-Score or MVRVZ line crossing these levels.
Market Evaluation (SCDA Framework):
The bounded Z-Score (from -2 to +2) is tailored for your SCDA evaluation system, allowing you to assess market conditions based on consistent criteria, no matter how volatile the MVRVZ line becomes.
Conclusion:
The MVRVZ BTC indicator is a powerful tool for assessing the relative valuation of Bitcoin based on its market and realized capitalization. By combining it with the Z-Score, you get an easy-to-read, bounded evaluation system that highlights potential market extremes and helps you make informed decisions about Bitcoin's price behavior.
Correlation Drift📈 Correlation Drift
The Correlation Drift indicator is designed to detect shifts in market momentum by analyzing the relationship between correlation and price lag. It combines the principles of correlation analysis and lag factor measurement to provide a unique perspective on trend alignment and momentum shifts.
🔍 Core Concept:
The indicator calculates the Correlation vs PLF Ratio, which measures the alignment between an asset’s price movement and a chosen benchmark (e.g., BTCUSD). This ratio reflects how well the asset’s momentum matches the market trend while accounting for price lag.
📊 How It Works:
Correlation Calculation:
The script calculates the correlation between the asset and the selected benchmark over a specified period.
A higher correlation indicates that the asset’s price movements are in sync with the benchmark.
Price Lag Factor (PLF) Calculation:
The PLF measures the difference between long-term and short-term price momentum, dynamically scaled by recent volatility.
It highlights potential overextensions or lags in the asset’s price movements.
Combining Correlation and PLF:
The Correlation vs PLF Ratio combines these metrics to detect momentum shifts relative to the trend.
The result is a dynamic, smoothed histogram that visualizes whether the asset is leading or lagging behind the trend.
💡 How to Interpret:
Positive Values (Green/Aqua Bars):
Indicates bullish alignment with the trend.
Aqua: Rising bullish momentum, suggesting continuation.
Teal: Decreasing bullish momentum, signaling caution.
Negative Values (Purple/Fuchsia Bars):
Indicates bearish divergence from the trend.
Fuchsia: Falling bearish momentum, indicating increasing pressure.
Purple: Rising bearish momentum, suggesting potential reversal.
Clipping for Readability:
Values are clipped between -3 and +3 to prevent outliers from compressing the histogram.
This ensures clear visualization of typical momentum shifts while still marking extreme cases.
🚀 Best Practices:
Use Correlation Drift as a confirmation tool in conjunction with trend indicators (e.g., moving averages) to identify momentum alignment or divergence.
Look for transitions from positive to negative (or vice versa) as signals of potential trend shifts.
Combine with volume analysis to strengthen confidence in breakout or breakdown signals.
⚠️ Key Features:
Customizable Settings: Adjust the correlation length, PLF length, and smoothing factor to fine-tune the indicator for different market conditions.
Visual Gradient: The histogram changes color based on the strength and direction of the ratio, making it easy to identify shifts at a glance.
Zero Line Reference: Clearly distinguishes between bullish and bearish momentum zones.
🔧 Recommended Settings:
Correlation Length: 14 (for short to medium-term analysis)
PLF Length: 50 (to smooth out noise while capturing trend shifts)
Smoothing Factor: 3 (for enhanced clarity without excessive lag)
Benchmark Symbol: BTCUSD (or another relevant market indicator)
By providing a quantitative measure of trend alignment while accounting for price lag, the Correlation Drift indicator helps traders make more informed decisions during periods of momentum change. Whether you are trading crypto, forex, or equities, this tool can be a powerful addition to your momentum-based trading strategies.
