Normalized VolumeOVERVIEW
The Normalized Volume (NV) is an attempt at visualizing volume in a format that is more understandable by placing the values on a scale of 0 to 100. 0 in this case is the lowest volume candle available on the chart, and 100 being the highest. Calling a candle “high volume” can be misleading without having something to compare to. For example, in scaling the volume this way we can clearly see that a given candle had 80% of the peak volume or 20%, and gauge the validity of price moves more accurately.
FEATURES
NV by session
Allows user to filter the volume values across 4 different sessions. This can add context to the volume output, because what it high volume during London session may not be high volume relative to New York session.
Overlay plotting
When volume boxes are turned on, this will allow you to toggle how they are plotted.
Color theme
A standard color theme will color the NV based on if the respective candle closed green or red. Selecting variables will color the NV plot based on which range the value falls within.
Session inputs
Activated with the “By session?” Input. Allows user to break the day up into 4 sessions to more accurately gauge volume relative to time of day.
Show Box (X)
Toggles on chart boxes on and off.
Show historical boxes
Will plot prior occurrences of selected volume boxes, deleting them when price fully moves through them in the opposite direction of the initial candle.
Color inputs
Allows for intensive customization in how this tool appears visually.
INTERPRETATION
There are 6 pre-defined ranges that NV can fall within.
NV <= 10
Volume is insignificant
In this range, volume should not be a confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 10 and <= 20
Volume is low
In this range, volume should not be a confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 20 and <= 40
Volume is fair
In this range, volume should not be the primary confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 40 and <= 60
Volume is high
In this range, volume can be the primary confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 60 and <= 80
Volume is very high
In this range, volume can be the primary confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 80
Volume is extreme
In this range, volume is likely news driven and caution should be taken. High price volatility possible.
To utilize this tool in conjunction with your current strategy, follow the range explanations above section in this section. The higher the NV value, the stronger you can feel about your directional confirmation.
If NV = 100, this means that the highest volume candle occurred up to that point on your selected timeframe. All future data points will be weighed off of this value.
LIMITATIONS
This tool will not load on tickers that do not have volume data, such as VIX.
STRATEGY
The Normalized Volume plot can be used in exactly the same way as you would normally utilize volume in your trading strategy. All we are doing is weighing the volume relative to itself.
Volume boxes can be used as targets to be filled in a similar way to commonly used “fair value gap” strategies. To utilize this strategy, I recommend selecting “Plot to Wicks” in Overlay Plotting and toggling on Show Historical Boxes.
Volume boxes can be used as areas for entry in a similar way to commonly used “order block” strategies. To utilize this strategy, I recommend selecting “Open To Close” in Overlay Plotting.
NOTES
You are able to plot an info label on right side of NV plot using the "Toggle box label" input. When a box is toggled on this label will tell you when the most recent box of that intensity occurred.
This tool is deeply visually customizable, with the ability to adjust line width for plotted boxes, all colors on both box overlays, and all colors on NV panel. Customize it to your liking!
I have a handful of additional features that I plan on adding to this tool in future updates. If there is anything you would like to see added, any bugs you identify, or any strategies you encounter with this tool, I would love to hear from you!

Time of Day Background with Bar Count & TableDescription:
This indicator provides a comprehensive overview of market activity by dynamically displaying the time-of-day background and tracking bullish and bearish bar counts across different sessions. It also features a table summarizing the market performance for the last 7 days, segmented into four time-based sessions: Morning, Afternoon, Evening, and Night.
Key Features:
Time of Day Background:
The chart's background color changes based on the time of day:
Evening (12 AM - 6 AM) is shaded blue.
Morning (6 AM - 12 PM) is shaded aqua.
Afternoon (12 PM - 6 PM) is shaded yellow.
Night (6 PM - 12 AM) is shaded silver.
Bullish and Bearish Bar Counting:
It tracks the number of bullish (closing higher than opening) and bearish (closing lower than opening) candles.
The sum of the price differences (bullish minus bearish) for each session is displayed as a dynamic label, indicating overall market direction for each session.
Session Breakdown:
The chart is divided into four sessions, each lasting 6 hours (Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night).
A new label is generated at the start of each session, indicating the bullish/bearish performance and the net difference in price movements for that session.
Historical Session Performance:
The indicator tracks and stores the performance for each session over the past 7 days.
A table is generated in the top-right corner of the chart, summarizing the performance for each session (Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night) and the price changes for each of the past 7 days.
The values are color-coded to indicate positive (green) or negative (red) results.
Dynamic Table:
The table presents performance data for each time session over the past week with color-coded cells:
Green cells indicate positive performance.
Red cells indicate negative performance.
Empty cells represent no data for that session.
Use Case:
This indicator is useful for traders who want to track market activity and performance across different times of day and monitor how each session contributes to the overall market trend. It provides both visual insights (through background color) and numerical data (via the table) for better decision-making.
Settings:
The background color and session labels update automatically based on the time of day.
The table updates every day, tracking the performance of each session over the past week.
Vortex Candle MarkerVortex Candle Marker
The Vortex Candle Marker is a specialized TradingView indicator designed to identify and highlight **Vortex Candles**—candles that momentarily form without wicks on either the high or low. This unique price behavior can signal potential price retracements or reversals, aligning with the **Power of Three (PO3)** concept in price action theory.
Indicator Logic:
A candle is classified as a **Vortex Candle** if either of these conditions is met during its formation:
1. **Vortex Top:** The **high** equals either the **open** or **close**, indicating no upper wick.
2. **Vortex Bottom:** The **low** equals either the **open** or **close**, indicating no lower wick.
When a Vortex Candle is detected, the indicator changes the **candle border color** to **aqua**, making it easy to identify these significant price moments.
Market Insight & PO3 Interpretation:
In typical price behavior, most candles exhibit both upper and lower wicks, representing price exploration before settling at a closing value. A candle forming without a wick suggests **strong directional intent** at that moment. However, by the **Power of Three (PO3)** concept—Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution—such wickless formations often imply:
- **Price Reversion Likelihood:** When a candle temporarily forms without a wick, it suggests the market may **revisit the opening price** to establish a wick before the candle closes.
- **Liquidity Manipulation:** The absence of a wick may indicate a **stop-hunt** or liquidity grab, where the price manipulates one side before reversing.
- **Entry Triggers:** Identifying these moments can help traders anticipate potential **retracements** or **continuations** within the PO3 framework.
Practical Application
- **Early Reversal Detection:** Spot potential price reversals by observing wickless candles forming at key levels.
- **Breakout Validation:** Use Vortex Candles to confirm **true breakouts** or **false moves** before the price returns.
- **Liquidity Zones:** Identify areas where the market is likely to revisit to create a wick, signaling entry/exit points.
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders applying **Po3** methodologies and seeking to capture price manipulation patterns.
ALN Sessions - for NQ2/24/25 - v1
This script does not calculate any stats.
It uses the sessions and stats from NQStats/ALNSessions
Option to draw boxes around the session times.
Options to adjust the table text/background colors/position.
The logic will determine how the Asia and London sessions interact.
Once the New York session starts (8am), it will then display the appropriate stats.
Script quirk...fyi. The script removes the stats table at 6PM.
That's just how it works. I used grok to assist with the code, and it got funky. It works, so I left it that way.
The appropriate stats table will then be displayed when the next New York session begins.

There is another table I used just for troubleshooting to show the values of the Asia/London session highs/lows. This can just be ignored.

CAPM Alpha & BetaThe CAPM Alpha & Beta indicator is a crucial tool in finance and investment analysis derived from the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) . It provides insights into an asset's risk-adjusted performance (Alpha) and its relationship to broader market movements (Beta). Here’s a breakdown:
1. How Does It Work?
Alpha:
Definition: Alpha measures the portion of an investment's return that is not explained by market movements, i.e., the excess return over and above what the market is expected to deliver.
Purpose: It represents the value a fund manager or strategy adds (or subtracts) from an investment’s performance, adjusting for market risk.
Calculation:
Alpha is derived from comparing actual returns to expected returns predicted by CAPM:
Alpha = Actual Return − (Risk-Free Rate + β × (Market Return − Risk-Free Rate))
Alpha = Actual Return − (Risk-Free Rate + β × (Market Return − Risk-Free Rate))
Interpretation:
Positive Alpha: The investment outperformed its CAPM prediction (good performance for additional value/risk).
Negative Alpha: The investment underperformed its CAPM prediction.
Beta:
Definition: Beta measures the sensitivity of an asset's returns relative to the overall market's returns. It quantifies systematic risk.
Purpose: Indicates how volatile or correlated an investment is relative to the market benchmark (e.g., S&P 500).
Calculation:
Beta is computed as the ratio of the covariance of the asset and market returns to the variance of the market returns:
β = Covariance (Asset Return, Market Return) / Variance (Market Return)
β = Variance (Market Return) Covariance (Asset Return, Market Return)
Interpretation:
Beta = 1: The asset’s price moves in line with the market.
Beta > 1: The asset is more volatile than the market (higher risk/higher potential reward).
Beta < 1: The asset is less volatile than the market (lower risk/lower reward).
Beta < 0: The asset moves inversely to the market.
2. How to Use It?
Using Alpha:
Portfolio Evaluation: Investors use Alpha to gauge whether a portfolio manager or a strategy has successfully outperformed the market on a risk-adjusted basis.
If Alpha is consistently positive, the portfolio may deliver higher-than-expected returns for the given level of risk.
Stock/Asset Selection: Compare Alpha across multiple securities. Positive Alpha signals that the asset may be a good addition to your portfolio for excess returns.
Adjusting Investment Strategy: If Alpha is negative, reassess the asset's role in the portfolio and refine strategies.
Using Beta:
Risk Management:
A high Beta (e.g., 1.5) indicates higher sensitivity to market movements. Use such assets if you want to take on more risk during bullish market phases or expect higher returns.
A low Beta (e.g., 0.7) indicates stability and is useful in diversifying risk in volatile or bearish markets.
Portfolio Diversification: Combine assets with varying Betas to achieve the desired level of market responsiveness and smooth out portfolio volatility.
Monitoring Systematic Risk: Beta helps identify whether an investment aligns with your risk tolerance. For example, high-Beta stocks may not be suitable for conservative investors.
Practical Application:
Use both Alpha and Beta together:
Assess performance with Alpha (excess returns).
Assess risk exposure with Beta (market sensitivity).
Example: A stock with a Beta of 1.2 and a highly positive Alpha might suggest a solid performer that is slightly more volatile than the market, making it a suitable pick for risk-tolerant, return-maximizing investors.
In conclusion, the CAPM Alpha & Beta indicator gives a comprehensive view of an asset's performance and risk. Alpha enables performance evaluation on a risk-adjusted basis, while Beta reveals the level of market risk. Together, they help investors make informed decisions, build optimal portfolios, and align investments with their risk-return preferences.
ATR Percentages BoxThis custom indicator provides a quick visual reference for volatility-based price ranges, directly on your TradingView charts. It calculates and displays three ranges derived from the Daily Average True Range (ATR) with a standard 14-period setting:
5 Min (3% ATR): Ideal for very short-term scalping and quick intraday moves.
1 Hour (5% ATR): Useful for hourly setups, short-term trades, and intraday volatility assessment.
Day (10% ATR): Perfect for daily volatility context, swing trades, or placing stops and targets.
The ranges are clearly shown in a compact box at the top-right corner, providing traders immediate insights into realistic price movements, helping to optimise entries, stops, and profit targets efficiently.
Simple APF Strategy Backtesting [The Quant Science]Simple backtesting strategy for the quantitative indicator Autocorrelation Price Forecasting. This is a Buy & Sell strategy that operates exclusively with long orders. It opens long positions and generates profit based on the future price forecast provided by the indicator. It's particularly suitable for trend-following trading strategies or directional markets with an established trend.
Main functions
1. Cycle Detection: Utilize autocorrelation to identify repetitive market behaviors and cycles.
2. Forecasting for Backtesting: Simulate trades and assess the profitability of various strategies based on future price predictions.
Logic
The strategy works as follow:
Entry Condition: Go long if the hypothetical gain exceeds the threshold gain (configurable by user interface).
Position Management: Sets a take-profit level based on the future price.
Position Sizing: Automatically calculates the order size as a percentage of the equity.
No Stop-Loss: this strategy doesn't includes any stop loss.
Example Use Case
A trader analyzes a dayli period using 7 historical bars for autocorrelation.
Sets a threshold gain of 20 points using a 5% of the equity for each trade.
Evaluates the effectiveness of a long-only strategy in this period to assess its profitability and risk-adjusted performance.
User Interface
Length: Set the length of the data used in the autocorrelation price forecasting model.
Thresold Gain: Minimum value to be considered for opening trades based on future price forecast.
Order Size: percentage size of the equity used for each single trade.
Strategy Limit
This strategy does not use a stop loss. If the price continues to drop and the future price forecast is incorrect, the trader may incur a loss or have their capital locked in the losing trade.
Disclaimer!
This is a simple template. Use the code as a starting point rather than a finished solution. The script does not include important parameters, so use it solely for educational purposes or as a boilerplate.

⭕️ Usage
━ First Steps:
When opening, select any point on the chart. It will not affect anything until you turn on Manual Start mode (more on this below).
The chart will immediately show the best results of the default Auto mode. You can switch Part's to try to find even better results in the table.
Now you can display any result from the table on the chart by entering its ID in the settings.
Repeat steps 3-4 until you determine which type of Stop Loss you like best. Then set it in the settings instead of Auto mode.
* Example: I flipped through 14 parts before I liked the first result and entered its ID so I could visually evaluate it on the chart.
Then select the stop loss type, choose it in place of Auto mode and repeat steps 3-4 or immediately follow the recommendations of the algorithm.
Now the Genetic Algorithm at the bottom right will prompt you to enter the Parameters you need to search for and select even better results.
Parameters must be entered All at once before they are updated. Enter recommendations strictly in fields with the same names.
Repeat steps 5-6 until there are approximately 10 Part's left or as you like. And after that, easily pour through the remaining Parts and select the best parameters.
━ Example of the finished result.
━ Example of use with Takes
You can also test at the same time along with Take Profit. In this example, I simply enabled Risk/Reward mode and immediately specified in the TP field Maximum RR, Minimum RR and Step. So in this example I can test (3-1) / 0.1 = 20 Takes of different sizes. There are additional tips in the settings.

⭕️ How it Works
Hypothesis of Uniform Distribution of Rare Elements After Mixing.
'This hypothesis states that if an array of N elements contains K valid elements, then after mixing, these valid elements will be approximately uniformly distributed.'
'This means that in a random sample of k elements, the proportion of valid elements should closely match their proportion in the original array, with some random variation.'
'According to the central limit theorem, repeated sampling will result in an average count of valid elements following a normal distribution.'
'This supports the assumption that the valid elements are evenly spread across the array.'
'To test this hypothesis, we can conduct an experiment:'
'Create an array of 1,000,000 elements.'
'Select 1,000 random elements (1%) for validation.'
'Shuffle the array and divide it into groups of 1,000 elements.'
'If the hypothesis holds, each group should contain, on average, 1~ valid element, with minor variations.'
* I'd like to attach more details to My hypothesis but it won't be very relevant here. Since this is a whole separate topic, I will leave the minimum part for understanding the engine.
Practical Application
To apply this hypothesis, I needed a way to generate and thoroughly mix numerous possible combinations. Within Pine, generating over 100,000 combinations presents significant challenges, and storing millions of combinations requires excessive resources.
I developed an efficient mechanism that generates combinations in random order to address these limitations. While conventional methods often produce duplicates or require generating a complete list first, my approach guarantees that the first 10% of possible combinations are both unique and well-distributed. Based on my hypothesis, this sampling is sufficient to determine optimal testing parameters.
Most generators and randomizers fail to accommodate both my hypothesis and Pine's constraints. My solution utilizes a simple Linear Congruential Generator (LCG) for pseudo-randomization, enhanced with prime numbers to increase entropy during generation. I pre-generate the entire parameter range and then apply systematic mixing. This approach, combined with a hybrid combinatorial array-filling technique with linear distribution, delivers excellent generation quality.
My engine can efficiently generate and verify 300 unique combinations per batch. Based on the above, to determine optimal values, only 10-20 Parts need to be manually scrolled through to find the appropriate value or range, eliminating the need for exhaustive testing of millions of parameter combinations.
For the Score statistic I applied all the same, generated a range of Weights, distributed them randomly for each type of statistic to avoid manual distribution.
Score ━ based on Trade, Profit, WinRate, Profit Factor, Drawdown, Sharpe & Sortino & Omega & Calmar Ratio.
⭕️ Notes
For attentive users, a little tricks :)
To save time, switch parts every 3 seconds without waiting for it to load. After 10-20 parts, stop and wait for loading. If the pause is correct, you can switch between the rest of the parts without loading, as they will be cached. This used to work without having to wait for a pause, but now it does slower. This will save a lot of time if you are going to do a deeper backtest.
Sometimes you'll get the error “The scripts take too long to execute.”
For a quick fix you just need to switch the TF or Ticker back and forth and most likely everything will load.
The error appears because of problems on the side of the site because the engine is very heavy. It can also appear if you set too long a period for testing in BackWin or use a heavy indicator for testing.
Manual Start - Allow you to Start you Result from any point. Which in turn can help you choose a good stop-stick for your real position.
* It took me half a year from idea to current realization. This seems to be one of the few ways to build something automatic in backtest format and in this particular Pine environment. There are already better projects in other languages, and they are created much easier and faster because there are no limitations except for personal PC. If you see solutions to improve this system I would be glad if you share the code. At the moment I am tired and will continue him not soon.
Also You can use my previosly big Backtest project with more manual settings(updated soon)
Clustering Volatility (ATR-ADR-ChaikinVol) [Sam SDF-Solutions]The Clustering Volatility indicator is designed to evaluate market volatility by combining three widely used measures: Average True Range (ATR), Average Daily Range (ADR), and the Chaikin Oscillator.
Each indicator is normalized using one of the available methods (MinMax, Rank, or Z-score) to create a unified metric called the Score. This Score is further smoothed with an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to reduce noise and provide a clearer view of market conditions.
Key Features:
Multi-Indicator Integration: Combines ATR, ADR, and the Chaikin Oscillator into a single Score that reflects overall market volatility.
Flexible Normalization: (Supports three normalization methods)
MinMax: Scales values between the observed minimum and maximum.
Rank: Normalizes based on the relative rank within a moving window.
Z-score: Standardizes values using mean and standard deviation.
Dynamic Window Selection: Offers an automatic window selection option based on a specified lookback period, or a fixed window size can be used.
Customizable Weights: Allows the user to assign individual weights to ATR, ADR, and the Chaikin Oscillator. Optionally, weights can be normalized to sum to 1.
Score Smoothing: Applies an EMA to the computed Score to smooth out short-term fluctuations and reduce market noise.
Cluster Visualization: Divides the smoothed Score into a number of clusters, each represented by a distinct color. These colors can be applied to the price bars (if enabled) for an immediate visual indication of the current volatility regime.
How It Works:
Input & Window Setup: Users set parameters for indicator periods, normalization methods, weights, and window size. The indicator can automatically determine the analysis window based on the number of lookback days.
Calculation of Metrics: The indicator computes the ATR, ADR (as the average of bar ranges), and the Chaikin Oscillator (based on the difference between short and long EMAs of the Accumulation/Distribution line).
Normalization & Scoring: Each indicator’s value is normalized and then weighted to form a raw Score. This raw Score is scaled to a range using statistics from the chosen window.
Smoothing & Clustering: The raw Score is smoothed using an EMA. The resulting smoothed Score is then multiplied by the number of clusters to assign a cluster index, which is used to choose a color for visual signals.
Visualization: The smoothed Score is plotted on the chart with a color that changes based on its value (e.g., lime for low, red for high, yellow for intermediate values). Optionally, the price bars are colored according to the assigned cluster.
_____________
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking a quick and clear assessment of market volatility. By integrating multiple volatility measures into one comprehensive Score, it simplifies analysis and aids in making more informed trading decisions.

Fibonacci-Only Strategy V2Fibonacci-Only Strategy V2
This strategy combines Fibonacci retracement levels with pattern recognition and statistical confirmation to identify high-probability trading opportunities across multiple timeframes.
Core Strategy Components:
Fibonacci Levels: Uses key Fibonacci retracement levels (19% and 82.56%) to identify potential reversal zones
Pattern Recognition: Analyzes recent price patterns to find similar historical formations
Statistical Confirmation: Incorporates statistical analysis to validate entry signals
Risk Management: Includes customizable stop loss (fixed or ATR-based) and trailing stop features
Entry Signals:
Long entries occur when price touches or breaks the 19% Fibonacci level with bullish confirmation
Short entries require Fibonacci level interaction, bearish confirmation, and statistical validation
All signals are visually displayed with color-coded markers and dashboard
Trading Method:
When a triangle signal appears, open a position on the next candle
Alternatively, after seeing a signal on a higher timeframe, you can switch to a lower timeframe to find a more precise entry point
Entry signals are clearly marked with visual indicators for easy identification
Risk Management Features:
Adjustable stop loss (percentage-based or ATR-based)
Optional trailing stops for protecting profits
Multiple take-profit levels for strategic position exit
Customization Options:
Timeframe selection (1m to Daily)
Pattern length and similarity threshold adjustment
Statistical period and weight configuration
Risk parameters including stop loss and trailing stop settings
This strategy is particularly well-suited for cryptocurrency markets due to their tendency to respect Fibonacci levels and technical patterns. Crypto's volatility is effectively managed through the customizable stop-loss and trailing-stop mechanisms, making it an ideal tool for traders in digital asset markets.
For optimal performance, this strategy works best on higher timeframes (30m, 1h and above) and is not recommended for low timeframe scalping. The Fibonacci pattern recognition requires sufficient price movement to generate reliable signals, which is more consistently available in medium to higher timeframes.
Users should avoid trading during sideways market conditions, as the strategy performs best during trending markets with clear directional movement. The statistical confirmation component helps filter out some sideways market signals, but it's recommended to manually avoid ranging markets for best results.
Round NumbersTries to only show major round numbers regardless of whether you're looking at something priced in the thousands or under a dollar.
Relative Strength RatioWhen comparing a stock’s strength against NIFTY 50, the Relative Strength (RS) is calculated to measure how the stock is performing relative to the index. This is different from the RSI but is often used alongside it.
How It Works:
Relative Strength (RS) Calculation:
𝑅
𝑆
=
Stock Price
NIFTY 50 Price
RS=
NIFTY 50 Price
Stock Price
This shows how a stock is performing relative to the NIFTY 50 index.
Relative Strength Ratio Over Time:
If the RS value is increasing, the stock is outperforming NIFTY 50.
If the RS value is decreasing, the stock is underperforming NIFTY 50.
Liquidity Depth [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script visualizes market liquidity by identifying key price levels where significant volume has transacted. It highlights zones of high buying and selling interest, helping traders understand where liquidity is accumulating and how price may respond to these areas. By dynamically tracking volume at highs and lows, the script builds a real-time liquidity profile, making it a powerful tool for identifying potential support and resistance levels.
CONCEPTS
Liquidity depth analysis helps traders determine how price interacts with supply and demand at different levels. The script processes historical volume data to distinguish between high-liquidity and low-liquidity zones. It assigns transparency levels to plotted lines , ensuring that more relevant liquidity areas stand out visually. The script adds a profile to show the depth of liquidity (derived from historical volume data) for levels above and below the current price
FEATURES
Liquidity Levels: Tracks liquidity levels based on volume concentration at price high and lows.
Volume-Based Transparency: More significant liquidity levels are displayed with higher visibility, showing their significance.
Interpolation: interpolates the bullish and bearish liquidity depth at a user defined range away from the price, helping in comparing the liquidity amounts between bullish and bearish.
Depth Profile: Allows traders to visualize depth of liquidity in a more quantitative and clearer way than the liquidity levels/list]
USAGE
This indicator is best used to track liquidity levels and potential price reaction areas. Traders can adjust the Liquidity Lookback setting to analyze past liquidity levels over different historical periods. The Profile Resolution setting controls the granularity of liquidity depth visualization, with higher values providing more detail. The script can be applied across different timeframes, from intraday scalping to swing trading analysis. The plotted liquidity zones provide traders with insights into where price may encounter strong support, resistance, or potential liquidity-driven reversals.
PnL MonitorThe PnL Monitor is a customizable tool designed to help traders track the Profit and Loss (PnL) of up to 20 currency pairs or assets in real-time. This script provides a clear and organized table that displays the entry price, and PnL percentage for each pair, making it an essential tool for monitoring open positions or tracking potential trades.
Key Features:
Multi-Asset Tracking:

Divergence IQ [TradingIQ]Hello Traders!
Introducing "Divergence IQ"
Divergence IQ lets traders identify divergences between price action and almost ANY TradingView technical indicator. This tool is designed to help you spot potential trend reversals and continuation patterns with a range of configurable features.
Features
Divergence Detection
Detects both regular and hidden divergences for bullish and bearish setups by comparing price movements with changes in the indicator.
Offers two detection methods: one based on classic pivot point analysis and another that provides immediate divergence signals.
Option to use closing prices for divergence detection, allowing you to choose the data that best fits your strategy.
Normalization Options:
Includes multiple normalization techniques such as robust scaling, rolling Z-score, rolling min-max, or no normalization at all.
Adjustable normalization window lets you customize the indicator to suit various market conditions.
Option to display the normalized indicator on the chart for clearer visual comparison.
Allows traders to take indicators that aren't oscillators, and convert them into an oscillator - allowing for better divergence detection.
Simulated Trade Management:
Integrates simulated trade entries and exits based on divergence signals to demonstrate potential trading outcomes.
Customizable exit strategies with options for ATR-based or percentage-based stop loss and profit target settings.
Automatically calculates key trade metrics such as profit percentage, win rate, profit factor, and total trade count.
Visual Enhancements and On-Chart Displays:
Color-coded signals differentiate between bullish, bearish, hidden bullish, and hidden bearish divergence setups.
On-chart labels, lines, and gradient flow visualizations clearly mark divergence signals, entry points, and exit levels.
Configurable settings let you choose whether to display divergence signals on the price chart or in a separate pane.
Performance Metrics Table:
A performance table dynamically displays important statistics like profit, win rate, profit factor, and number of trades.
This feature offers an at-a-glance assessment of how the divergence-based strategy is performing.
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a bullish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a bearish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a hidden bullish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a hidden bearish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The performance table is designed to provide a clear summary of simulated trade results based on divergence setups. You can easily review key metrics to assess the strategy’s effectiveness over different time periods.
Customization and Adaptability
Divergence IQ offers a wide range of configurable settings to tailor the indicator to your personal trading approach. You can adjust the lookback and lookahead periods for pivot detection, select your preferred method for normalization, and modify trade exit parameters to manage risk according to your strategy. The tool’s clear visual elements and comprehensive performance metrics make it a useful addition to your technical analysis toolbox.
The image above shows Divergence IQ identifying divergences between price action and OBV with no normalization technique applied.
While traders can look for divergences between OBV and price, OBV doesn't naturally behave like an oscillator, with no definable upper and lower threshold, OBV can infinitely increase or decrease.
With Divergence IQ's ability to normalize any indicator, traders can normalize non-oscillator technical indicators such as OBV, CVD, MACD, or even a moving average.
In the image above, the "Robust Scaling" normalization technique is selected. Consequently, the output of OBV has changed and is now behaving similar to an oscillator-like technical indicator. This makes spotting divergences between the indicator and price easier and more appropriate.
The three normalization techniques included will change the indicator's final output to be more compatible with divergence detection.
This feature can be used with almost any technical indicator.
Stop Type
Traders can select between ATR based profit targets and stop losses, or percentage based profit targets and stop losses.
The image above shows options for the feature.
Divergence Detection Method
A natural pitfall of divergence trading is that it generally takes several bars to "confirm" a divergence. This makes trading the divergence complicated, because the entry at time of the divergence might look great; however, the divergence wasn't actually signaled until several bars later.
To circumvent this issue, Divergence IQ offers two divergence detection mechanisms.
Pivot Detection
Pivot detection mode is the same as almost every divergence indicator on TradingView. The Pivots High Low indicator is used to detect market/indicator highs and lows and, consequently, divergences.
This method generally finds the "best looking" divergences, but will always take additional time to confirm the divergence.
Immediate Detection
Immediate detection mode attempts to reduce lag between the divergence and its confirmation to as little as possible while avoiding repainting.
Immediate detection mode still uses the Pivots Detection model to find the first high/low of a divergence. However, the most recent high/low does not utilize the Pivot Detection model, and instead immediately looks for a divergence between price and an indicator.
Immediate Detection Mode will always signal a divergence one bar after it's occurred, and traders can set alerts in this mode to be alerted as soon as the divergence occurs.
TradingView Backtester Integration
Divergence IQ is fully compatible with the TradingView backtester!
Divergence IQ isn’t designed to be a “profitable strategy” for users to trade. Instead, the intention of including the backtester is to let users backtest divergence-based trading strategies between the asset on their chart and almost any technical indicator, and to see if divergences have any predictive utility in that market.
So while the backtester is available in Divergence IQ, it’s for users to personally figure out if they should consider a divergence an actionable insight, and not a solicitation that Divergence IQ is a profitable trading strategy. Divergence IQ should be thought of as a Divergence backtesting toolkit, not a full-feature trading strategy.
Strategy Properties Used For Backtest
Initial Capital: $1000 - a realistic amount of starting capital that will resonate with many traders
Amount Per Trade: 5% of equity - a realistic amount of capital to invest relative to portfolio size
Commission: 0.02% - a conservative amount of commission to pay for trade that is standard in crypto trading, and very high for other markets.
Slippage: 1 tick - appropriate for liquid markets, but must be increased in markets with low activity.
Once more, the backtester is meant for traders to personally figure out if divergences are actionable trading signals on the market they wish to trade with the indicator they wish to use.
And that's all!
If you have any cool features you think can benefit Divergence IQ - please feel free to share them!
Thank you so much TradingView community!

📌 Disclaimer: This indicator is for educational purposes only. Always conduct proper risk management before trading.
QSL Upside/DownsideThe QSL Upside/Downside Indicator helps traders estimate potential gains and losses using Conditional Value at Risk (cVaR), a statistical measure that assesses both downside risk and upside potential beyond standard volatility. Instead of fixed timeframes (daily, weekly, etc.), traders can set a custom lookback period (in days) to analyze market behavior over their preferred time frame.
How It Works
The indicator calculates cVaR over the chosen period to determine how much an investment could move up or down based on past price behavior. It does this by:
• Mean Return – The average price movement over the period.
• Standard Deviation – Measures price fluctuations from the average.
• cVaR Confidence Interval (95%) – Estimates worst-case losses, meaning the downside projection reflects the worst 5% of expected losses.
• Upside Potential (Best 5%) – Instead of only considering risk, this indicator also calculates the potential upside by measuring returns in the top 5% of past price movements.
This provides a more complete view of what traders can expect—both in terms of risk and potential reward.
Key Features
✅ Custom Lookback Period – Set any number of days to analyze.
✅ cVaR Calculation (95% Confidence Interval) – Identifies extreme downside risks.
✅ Upside Potential (Best 5%) – Estimates how much an investment could rise in a best-case scenario.
✅ Clear Table Display – Quickly see projected best and worst-case portfolio values.
Understanding Probabilities: Upside & Downside Potential
Most traders focus on risk, but it’s equally important to understand potential gains. This indicator provides a probability-based view of expected market moves:
• 95% Confidence Interval (Downside cVaR) – There’s a 5% chance that losses could exceed this level.
• 95% Confidence Interval (Upside cVaR) – There’s a 5% chance that gains could be greater than this level.
• The remaining 90% of expected returns fall between these two extremes.
By knowing both potential losses and gains, traders can make more balanced, data-driven decisions rather than only focusing on worst-case scenarios.
Why Use This Indicator?
🔹 Better Risk & Reward Assessment – Understand both downside risk and upside potential.
🔹 More Realistic Market Projections – Uses probabilities instead of simple historical averages.
🔹 Flexible & Customizable – Works with any asset and any time period.
With this tool, QSL members can strategically plan trades, knowing the expected best and worst-case outcomes with a 95% probability range. 🚀

MacroJP: US Macro Conditions & Forward GuidanceMacroJP is a comprehensive, free-to-use TradingView indicator designed to provide a clear snapshot of the US macroeconomic environment. It consolidates key economic metrics into a single, interactive dashboard, allowing traders and investors to quickly assess current conditions and adjust their portfolio biases accordingly.
How It Works:
• Data Aggregation:
The indicator pulls monthly data from reputable free economic sources—specifically, ISM Manufacturing PMI, US CPI YoY, US M2 Money Supply, and US Treasury yields (10-year and 2-year). This robust dataset forms the backbone of the analysis.
• Composite Calculations:
By calculating a Composite Inflation Indicator (the average of CPI YoY and the yield spread) and evaluating the year-over-year change in M2, MacroJP gauges both the inflationary pressures and liquidity trends in the economy. These composite metrics offer a nuanced view that goes beyond single-indicator analysis.
Regime Classification:
The core strength of MacroJP lies in its quadrant classification system. It categorises the macro environment into four distinct regimes based on the direction of economic growth (derived from PMI) and inflation (from the Composite Inflation Indicator):
• Expansion (Reflation): Indicative of a recovering economy with rising production and moderate inflation—ideal for a bullish equity bias.
• Stagflation Risk: A scenario of weak growth coupled with high inflation, where a defensive posture is recommended.
• Slowdown (Deflationary): Characterised by contracting economic activity and falling prices, suggesting a move towards cash or high-quality bonds.
• Disinflationary Boom: Reflects strong growth with stable or falling inflation—an optimal environment for equities with some bond diversification.
Forward Guidance:
To enhance its predictive capability, MacroJP incorporates leading indicators by shifting key data points. For instance, it uses a forward-shifted M2 YoY value and a one-month shifted CPI proxy to offer insights into near-term trends. This approach helps in anticipating changes, providing a sort of “forward guidance” that can inform strategic asset allocation.
User Education:
The indicator features an intuitive table with on-hover tooltips that explain each metric, its relevance, and recommended investment biases. This educational layer is designed to empower users to not only monitor the economic pulse but also to understand the ‘why’ behind each reading, making it a valuable tool for both novice and experienced investors.
MacroJP brings clarity to complex macroeconomic dynamics, allowing users to make more informed decisions in volatile markets. Its seamless integration of free public data and detailed on-chart annotations makes it an indispensable tool for anyone looking to understand the broader economic context impacting their investments.

Pearson Correlation Best MA [victhoreb]Pearson Correlation Best MA is an innovative indicator designed to dynamically select the moving average that best aligns with price action based on the Pearson correlation coefficient. Here’s what it does:
- Multiple MA Evaluation: The indicator computes eight different moving averages — SMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, LSMA, RMA, WMA, and VWMA — using a user-defined period.
- Correlation Analysis: For each moving average, it calculates the Pearson correlation with the price (using the average of high and low) over a specified correlation length, then identifies the one with the highest correlation.
- Optional Smoothing: Users can opt to further smooth the selected best moving average for an even more refined signal.
- Visual Cues: The indicator plots the “Best MA” on the chart, colors it based on its direction (bullish or bearish), and also displays the correlation value. Additionally, it can color the price candles to reflect the trend indicated by the best moving average.
- Customizability: All key parameters such as moving average length, correlation length, smoothing options, and color settings are fully customizable.
This tool helps traders by automatically adapting to market conditions—highlighting the moving average that is most in sync with current price trends, potentially improving trade timing and decision-making.
