Potential Upcoming Trend ToolThis Script has the specific use of identifying when and how a new trend may start to take form, rather than focusing on how a trend has already formed on a longer term basis.
This Script is useful on it's own and not in conjunction with another. It works by taking on the most recent price data rather than a long term historical string.
It differs from standard trend following indicators because it's use is far less historical, and more present. It requires less pivot points than normal to be validated as a strong trend.
It works by taking local pivot points and fractals to form its parallel basis. The Trend lines will continually move as more recent price action data appears and the the channel will get thinner, until it is clear a trend has arrived and consolidated.
The idea really is to see a constantly evolving picture of a sudden change in movement, allowing you to have an earlier eye on what is potentially to come.
The faint mid-point line gives a reasonable reading of where you would find yourself halfway within a new trend and will also move inline with the shown trendlines.
This allows you to easily track when sentiment and therefore trends are about to change. It's much more useful on lower timeframes because they will often give the first indication something is changing.
Colours are fully customisable.

Bitcoin Cycle High/Low with functional Alert [heswaikcrypt]Introduction
Just as machines are fine-tuned for maximum efficiency, trading indicators must evolve to meet the demands of ever-changing markets.
Credit goes to the initial author, @NoCreditsLeft I only improved the existing Pi-cycle indicator with a functional alert and included a bull mode indicator in the script. The alert can help you get a live alert at candle close when the cycle tops, bottoms, and the potential bull phase switch occurs.
Philip Swift’s Pi Cycle Top Indicator is a brilliant example of leveraging mathematical relationships to signal critical turning points in Bitcoin’s price cycles. Historically, it has identified market and local tops with some relative accuracy, often within three days, as demonstrated in all the previous bull run cycles.
At its core, the Pi Cycle Indicator derives its name from the mathematical constant π (pi), achieved by using simple moving averages (MAs) in a specific ratio: 𝜋 = Long MA/short MA
The Bull mode switch is calculated using a crossover of the short exponentia moving average and the long moving average.
.
.
.
Knowing when Bitcoin reaches its top—and receiving timely alerts about it—is crucial for successful trading. The indicator is designed to signal;
Potential Bitcoin tops: Purple label
Potential Bitcoin bottoms : green Label, and
Parabolic swing : Yellow diamond shape (relating to the market switching to a potential bull mode)
"Please note: This indicator is tailored for Bitcoin using historical data analysis and should not be considered definitive. However accurate it might be."
Setting alerts
To set the alert conditions, select any alert function call to get alert whenever the conditions are met. The script is configured on dialy TF; you can set it on 1D or weekly TF.
Enjoy and Trade smartly
Linear Regression Channel Screener [Daveatt]Hello traders
First and foremost, I want to extend a huge thank you to @LonesomeTheBlue for his exceptional Linear Regression Channel indicator that served as the foundation for this screener.
Original work can be found here:
Overview
This project demonstrates how to transform any open-source indicator into a powerful multi-asset screener.
The principles shown here can be applied to virtually any indicator you find interesting.
How to Transform an Indicator into a Screener
Step 1: Identify the Core Logic
First, identify the main calculations of the indicator.
In our case, it's the Linear Regression
Channel calculation:
get_channel(src, len) =>
mid = math.sum(src, len) / len
slope = ta.linreg(src, len, 0) - ta.linreg(src, len, 1)
intercept = mid - slope * math.floor(len / 2) + (1 - len % 2) / 2 * slope
endy = intercept + slope * (len - 1)
dev = 0.0
for x = 0 to len - 1 by 1
dev := dev + math.pow(src - (slope * (len - x) + intercept), 2)
dev
dev := math.sqrt(dev / len)
Step 2: Use request.security()
Pass the function to request.security() to analyze multiple assets:
= request.security(sym, timeframe.period, get_channel(src, len))
Step 3: Scale to Multiple Assets
PineScript allows up to 40 request.security() calls, letting you monitor up to 40 assets simultaneously.
Features of This Screener
The screener provides real-time trend detection for each monitored asset, giving you instant insights into market movements.
It displays each asset's position relative to its middle regression line, helping you understand price momentum.
The data is presented in a clean, organized table with color-coded trends for easy interpretation.
At its core, the screener performs trend detection based on regression slope calculations, clearly indicating whether an asset is in a bullish or bearish trend.
Each asset's price is tracked relative to its middle regression line, providing additional context about trend strength.
The color-coded visual feedback makes it easy to spot changes at a glance.
Built-in alerts notify you instantly when any asset experiences a trend change, ensuring you never miss important market moves.
Customization Tips
You can easily expand the screener by adding more symbols to the symbols array, adapting it to your watchlist.
The regression parameters can be adjusted to match your preferred trading timeframes and sensitivity.
The alert system is already configured to notify you of trend changes, but you can customize the alert messages and conditions to your needs.
Limitations
While powerful, the screener is bound by PineScript's limitation of 40 security calls, capping the maximum number of monitored assets.
Using AI to Help With Conversion
An interesting tip:
You can use AI tools to help convert single-asset indicators to screeners.
Simply provide the original code and ask for assistance in transforming it into a screener format. While the AI output might need some syntax adjustments, it can handle much of the heavy lifting in the conversion process.
Prompt (example) : " Please make a pinescript version 5 screener out of this indicator below or in attachment to scan 20 instruments "
I prefer Claude AI (Opus model) over ChatGPT for pinescript.
Conclusion
This screener transformation technique opens up endless possibilities for market analysis.
By following these steps, you can convert any indicator into a powerful multi-asset scanner, enhancing your trading toolkit significantly.
Remember: The power of a screener lies not just in monitoring multiple assets, but in applying consistent analysis across your entire watchlist in real-time.
Feel free to fork and modify this screener for your own needs.
Happy trading! 🚀📈

Accumulation Momentum IndicatorEveryone wants to be in a trend, I think this indicator does a great job at showing that key momentum that traders try and capitalize on everyday. I used a Stochastic Momentum Indicator (SMI) indicator. It's a lot like a slower MACD which allows me to capitalize on changing momentum. My goal was to make an indicator that was able to use a weighted mean of many accumulation/momentum indicators. This would give me a well rounded look to really see what direction the momentum and volume is heading.
I did some research on some of the best Accumulation and Momentum Indicators. I landed on 4.
The Accumulation Distribution line which measures the cumulative flow of money in or out of a security. It helps show how quickly money is going in and out of a commodity. The line moving up quickly indicates fast Accumulation while the A/C line is moving down quickly is shows falling Distribution. This can show the momentum and accumulation of a commodity in short and long term based off of Volume.
The On Balance Volume, OBV is a combination of Price Movement and Volume. If price closes higher then the previous bar volume is added while if the price closes lower volume is subtracted. This gives us an overall tally of whether volume is increasing with price or slowing down the momentum in the direction of the current trend. This gives us the ability to see if volume is supporting the price increasing (beginning/middle of a trend) or price is slowing down even though it is still heading in the direction of the current trend (signaling the end of the current trend).
The Force Index, this indicator measures the overall strength of the price movements. It does this by a calculation of price and volume. The close of the current bar subtracted by the previous multiplied by the volume. The result gives us either strong upward or downward motion. This adds magnitude to the overall movement/momentum of the indicator.
Lastly but most certainly not least is the Momentum indicator, (Price Momentum) a simple indicator that shows you the difference between the current close price and the close price from a specified period ago (Most commonly 14 periods/bars ago). Having this indicator is a must because it shows the speed at which price is accelerating or decelerating.
These 4 indicators together help round out the current volume, price movements, accumulation, and momentum of the current market. Since these indicators all have different scales and calculations I had to Normalize the Values to a 0-100 scale. This gives us 1 line and a much more readable easy to understand indicator. After they were normalized I gave them a weighted average that you can control. So lets say you cared more about the Force Index and the OBV rather then the Momentum and the Accumulation Distribution indicators, you would be able to give them more weight in the overall calculation as well as 0 out those you don't even want involved.
I hope the flexibility and the combination of 4 strong Accumulation Momentum indicators helps you better gauge the direction a commodity might head. The way it's used is when the Accumulation Momentum line is Above 50 buying pressure is stronger then selling pressure. An Accumulation Momentum line Below 50 suggests that distribution is more dominant in the current market. This indicator combines four different methods of analyzing price and volume to give you a single composite momentum score, making it easier to visualize when a commodity is being accumulated or distributed and how quickly this process is happening. It helps you track market sentiment based on both price movement and volume, with a clear, visual representation of buying and selling pressure.
Please let me know what you think and how you think I might be able to improve the script. Enjoy!
Stock vs Sector Comparison with HighlightsThis graph is meant as a support to select a stock that is expected to perform better than the sector.
The graph is based on weekly chart. So this is a medium / long term strategy.
How is expected to be used: when the stock has under performed the sector for some time, there is a natural tendence that it will catch up with the sector again. So, for example, if the color change from green to red, you should consider find another stock in the sector. If the stock looses the green color, but is not red yet, you should wait. And vice versa if you start with red. However, life is not that simple, as you can get fake signal. To mitigate this problem, you can adjust the threshold in the input setting, so just go for the signal after x weeks over/underperforming. You also need remember to select the sector in the settings, as the sector is not give automatically when you select the stock.
Below the sectors used:
Sector Name Ticker
S&P 500 (Market Index) SPY
Technology XLK
Financials XLF
Consumer Discretionary XLY
Industrials XLI
Health Care XLV
Consumer Staples XLP
Energy XLE
Utilities XLU
Communication Services XLC
Real Estate XLRE
Materials XLB
MadTrend [InvestorUnknown]The MadTrend indicator is an experimental tool that combines the Median and Median Absolute Deviation (MAD) to generate signals, much like the popular Supertrend indicator. In addition to identifying Long and Short positions, MadTrend introduces RISK-ON and RISK-OFF states for each trade direction, providing traders with nuanced insights into market conditions.
Core Concepts
Median and Median Absolute Deviation (MAD)
Median: The middle value in a sorted list of numbers, offering a robust measure of central tendency less affected by outliers.
Median Absolute Deviation (MAD): Measures the average distance between each data point and the median, providing a robust estimation of volatility.
Supertrend-like Functionality
MadTrend utilizes the median and MAD in a manner similar to how Supertrend uses averages and volatility measures to determine trend direction and potential reversal points.
RISK-ON and RISK-OFF States
RISK-ON: Indicates favorable conditions for entering or holding a position in the current trend direction.
RISK-OFF: Suggests caution, signaling RISK-ON end and potential trend weakening or reversal.
Calculating MAD
The mad function calculates the median of the absolute deviations from the median, providing a robust measure of volatility.
// Function to calculate the Median Absolute Deviation (MAD)
mad(series float src, simple int length) =>
med = ta.median(src, length) // Calculate median
abs_deviations = math.abs(src - med) // Calculate absolute deviations from median
ta.median(abs_deviations, length) // Return the median of the absolute deviations
MADTrend Function
The MADTrend function calculates the median and MAD-based upper (med_p) and lower (med_m) bands. It determines the trend direction based on price crossing these bands.
MADTrend(series float src, simple int length, simple float mad_mult) =>
// Calculate MAD (volatility measure)
mad_value = mad(close, length)
// Calculate the MAD-based moving average by scaling the price data with MAD
median = ta.median(close, length)
med_p = median + (mad_value * mad_mult)
med_m = median - (mad_value * mad_mult)
var direction = 0
if ta.crossover(src, med_p)
direction := 1
else if ta.crossunder(src, med_m)
direction := -1
Trend Direction and Signals
Long Position (direction = 1): When the price crosses above the upper MAD band (med_p).
Short Position (direction = -1): When the price crosses below the lower MAD band (med_m).
RISK-ON: When the price moves further in the direction of the trend (beyond median +- MAD) after the initial signal.
RISK-OFF: When the price retraces towards the median, signaling potential weakening of the trend.
RISK-ON and RISK-OFF States
RISK-ON LONG: Price moves above the upper band after a Long signal, indicating strengthening bullish momentum.
RISK-OFF LONG: Price falls back below the upper band, suggesting potential weakness in the bullish trend.
RISK-ON SHORT: Price moves below the lower band after a Short signal, indicating strengthening bearish momentum.
RISK-OFF SHORT: Price rises back above the lower band, suggesting potential weakness in the bearish trend.
Picture below show example RISK-ON periods which can be identified by “cloud”
Note: Highlighted areas on the chart indicating RISK-ON and RISK-OFF periods for both Long and Short positions.
Implementation Details
Inputs and Parameters:
Source (input_src): The price data used for calculations (e.g., close, open, high, low).
Median Length (length): The number of periods over which the median and MAD are calculated.
MAD Multiplier (mad_mult): Determines the distance of the upper and lower bands from the median.
Calculations:
Median and MAD are recalculated each period based on the specified length.
Upper (med_p) and Lower (med_m) Bands are computed by adding and subtracting the scaled MAD from the median.
Visual representation of the indicator on a price chart:
Backtesting and Performance Metrics
The MadTrend indicator includes a Backtesting Mode with a performance metrics table to evaluate its effectiveness compared to a simple buy-and-hold strategy.
Equity Calculation:
Calculates the equity curve based on the signals generated by the indicator.
Performance Metrics:
Metrics such as Mean Returns, Standard Deviation, Sharpe Ratio, Sortino Ratio, and Omega Ratio are computed.
The metrics are displayed in a table for both the strategy and the buy-and-hold approach.
Note: Due to the use of labels and plot shapes, automatic chart scaling may not function ideally in Backtest Mode.

HMA Gaussian Volatility AdjustedOverview
The "HMA Gaussian Volatility Adjusted" indicator introduces a unique combination of HMA smoothing with a Gaussian filter and two components to measure volatility (Average True Range (ATR) and Standard Deviation (SD)). This tool provides traders with a stable and accurate measure of price trends by integrating a Gaussian Filter smoothed using HMA with a customized calculation of volatility. This innovative approach allows for enhanced sensitivity to market fluctuations while filtering out short-term price noise.
Technical Composition and Calculation
The "HMA Gaussian Volatility Adjusted" indicator incorporates HMA smoothing and dynamic standard deviation calculations to build upon traditional volatility measures.
HMA & Gaussian Smoothing:
HMA Calculation (HMA_Length): The script applies a Hull Moving Average (HMA) to smooth the price data over a user-defined period, reducing noise and helping focus on broader market trends.
Gaussian Filter Calculation (Length_Gaussian): The smoothed HMA data is further refined by putting it into a Gaussian filter to incorporate a normal distribution.
Volatility Measurement:
ATR Calculation (ATR_Length, ATR_Factor): The indicator incorporates the Average True Range (ATR) to measure market volatility. The user-defined ATR multiplier is applied to this value to calculate upper and lower trend bands around the Gaussian, providing a dynamic measure of potential price movement based on recent volatility.
Standard Deviation Calculation (SD_Length): The script calculates the standard deviation of the price over a user-defined length, providing another layer of volatility measurement. The upper and lower standard deviation bands (SDD, SDU) act as additional indicators of price extremes.
Momentum Calculation & Scoring
When the indicator signals SHORT:
Diff = Price - Upper Boundary of the Standard Deviation (calculated on a Gaussian filter).
When the indicator signals LONG:
Diff = Price - Upper Boundary of the ATR (calculated on a Gaussian filter).
The calculated Diff signals how close the indicator is to changing trends. An EMA is applied to the Diff to smooth the data. Positive momentum occurs when the Diff is above the EMA, and negative momentum occurs when the Diff is below the EMA.
Trend Detection
Trend Logic: The indicator uses the calculated bands to identify whether the price is moving within or outside the standard deviation and ATR bands. Crosses above or below these bands, combined with positive/negative momentum, signals potential uptrends or downtrends, offering traders a clear view of market direction.
Features and User Inputs
The "HMA Gaussian Volatility Adjusted" script offers a variety of user inputs to customize the indicator to suit traders' styles and market conditions:
HMA Length: Allows traders to adjust the sensitivity of the HMA smoothing to control the amount of noise filtered from the price data.
Gaussian Length: Users can define the length at which the Gaussian filter is applied.
ATR Length and Multiplier: These inputs let traders fine-tune the ATR calculation, affecting the size of the dynamic upper and lower bands to adjust for price volatility.
Standard Deviation Length: Controls how the standard deviation is calculated, allowing further customization in detecting price volatility.
EMA Confluence: This input lets traders determine the length of the EMA used to calculate price momentum.
Type of Plot Setting: Allows users to determine how the indicator signal is plotted on the chart (Background color, Trend Lines, BOTH (backgroung color and Trend Lines)).
Transparency: Provides users with customization of the background color's transparency.
Color Long/Short: Offers users the option to choose their preferred colors for both long and short signals.
Summary and Usage Tips
The "HMA Gaussian Volatility Adjusted" indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to refine their analysis of market trends and volatility. Its combination of HMA smoothing, Gaussian filtering, and standard deviation analysis provides a nuanced view of market movements by incorporating various metrics to determine direction, momentum, and volatility. This helps traders make better-informed decisions. It's recommended to experiment with the various input parameters to optimize the indicator for specific needs.
Dynamic Support & Resistance based on SMI CrossoverExplanation:
SMI Calculation: The script calculates the Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) and its signal line using the specified input lengths.
Crossover Detection: It detects when the SMI crosses above (crossUp) or below (crossDown) its signal line.
Period Tracking: The script keeps track of up and down periods based on SMI crossovers. During an up period, it records the lowest low (support), and during a down period, it records the highest high (resistance).
Support and Resistance Levels: When a crossover occurs, it captures the highest or lowest value since the last crossover to define dynamic resistance and support levels.
Midline Calculation: The midline is calculated as the average of the current support and resistance levels.
Buy and Sell Signals: Buy signals are generated when the close price crosses above the midline, and sell signals are generated when it crosses below.
Plotting: The support, resistance, and midline are plotted on the upper chart. Buy and sell signals are indicated with arrows. Trendlines are added for visual clarity.
Note: This indicator should be used in conjunction with other analysis tools and is intended for educational purposes. Always perform thorough analysis before making trading decisions.
Like all technical indicators, this script is based on historical data and may not predict future market movements.
Always perform due diligence and consider multiple factors when making trading decisions.

This indicator combines three powerful technical indicators (EMA, VWAP, and SuperTrend) to create a comprehensive trading system that helps identify high-probability trading setups when all components align.
Strategy Components & Logic:
• EMA (Exponential Moving Average): Acts as a dynamic support/resistance and trend direction indicator
• VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price): Provides important institutional price levels and volume-based trend strength
• SuperTrend: Offers trend direction and potential reversal points
Why These Components Work Together:
1. EMA filters out market noise while maintaining responsiveness to price changes
2. VWAP adds volume-based price validation, especially useful for intraday trading
3. SuperTrend confirms trend direction and potential reversal points
4. When all three indicators align, it creates a high-probability setup
Signal Generation:
• Bullish Signal: Generated when price crosses above all three indicators (EMA, VWAP, and SuperTrend turns bullish)
• Bearish Signal: Generated when price crosses below all three indicators (EMA, VWAP, and SuperTrend turns bearish)
• Background color changes help visualize the current market condition
Settings:
- EMA Length: 20 (default, adjustable)
- SuperTrend Period: 10 (default, adjustable)
- SuperTrend Multiplier: 3.0 (default, adjustable)
How to Use:
1. Look for potential entries when all three indicators align
2. Small triangles mark key entry points when alignment occurs
3. Use background color as additional confirmation
4. Monitor price action relative to all three indicators for exit signals
Best Timeframes:
Works well on all timeframes, but particularly effective on 5-minute to daily charts for stocks and indices.
Note: This indicator combines traditional technical analysis tools in a unique way to provide clear, actionable signals. Always use proper risk management and consider other factors like market conditions and support/resistance levels.

McCrayTrendTraders often rely on price breaking above or below the 50-day moving average (50D-MA) as a buy/sell signal. However, this approach frequently results in false breakouts, especially during low-volatility periods when price compression precedes major moves. To address this issue, we use an 8-day exponential moving average (8D-EMA) to represent price and focus on the crossovers between the 8D-EMA and the 48D-EMA as entry/exit signals. This method reduces noise in low-volatility conditions, enables earlier trend entries, and helps traders stay in trends longer.
The indicator incorporates a 111-day EMA (111D-EMA) to define market bias:
• Above the 111D-EMA: Bias is long, favoring buying and selling into cash.
• Below the 111D-EMA: Bias is short, favoring selling and buying into cash.
An exception to this rule occurs when a bullish cross happens within 40% of the 200-week moving average (200W-MA), as these conditions historically signal optimal times to acquire BTC.
Signals:
Buy signals:
• A bullish cross while price is above the 111D-EMA.
• A bullish cross near the 200W-MA threshold (optional setting).
Sell signals:
• A bearish cross while price is below the 111D-EMA.
Exit signals:
• Both EMAs turn red (for long trades) or green (for short trades).
• The shading between the 111D-EMA and 200W-MA turns red (for longs) or green (for shorts), if enabled.
Reversal opportunities:
• A buy or sell label during an exit signal may indicate a reversal point, allowing traders to take profit and reopen positions in the opposite direction.
The methodology behind this indicator has generated 132% alpha since October 6, 2015. Special thanks to Anurag Parashar for refining the stylistic elements of the indicator.
16. SMC Strategy with SL - low TimeframeOverview
The "SMC Strategy with SL - low Timeframe" is a comprehensive trading strategy that uses key concepts from Smart Money Theory to identify favorable areas in the market for buying or selling. This strategy takes advantage of price imbalances, support and resistance zones, and swing highs/lows to generate high-probability trade signals.
The key features of this strategy include:
Swing High/Low Analysis: Used to determine the Premium, Equilibrium, and Discount Zones.
Order Block Integration: An added layer of confluence to identify valid buy and sell signals.
Trend Direction Confirmation: Using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to determine the overall trend.
Entry and Exit Rules: Based on price position relative to key zones and moving average, along with optional stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Detailed Description
Swing High and Swing Low Analysis
The script calculates Swing High and Swing Low based on the most recent price highs and lows over a specified look-back period (swingHighLength and swingLowLength, set to 8 by default).
It then derives the Premium, Equilibrium, and Discount Zones:
Premium Zone: Represents potential resistance, calculated based on recent swing highs.
Discount Zone: Represents potential support, calculated based on recent swing lows.
Equilibrium: The midpoint between Swing High and Swing Low, dividing the price range into Premium (above equilibrium) and Discount (below equilibrium) areas.
Zone Visualization
The strategy plots the Premium Zone (resistance) in red, the Discount Zone (support) in green, and the Equilibrium level in blue on the chart. This helps visually assess the current price relative to these important areas.
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
A 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) is added to help identify the trend direction.
Buy signals are valid only if the price is above the SMA, indicating an uptrend.
Sell signals are valid only if the price is below the SMA, indicating a downtrend.
Entry Rules
The script generates buy or sell signals when certain conditions are met:
A buy signal is triggered when:
Price is below the Equilibrium and within the Discount Zone.
Price is above the SMA.
The buy signal is further confirmed by the presence of an Order Block (recent lowest price area).
A sell signal is triggered when:
Price is above the Equilibrium and within the Premium Zone.
Price is below the SMA.
The sell signal is further confirmed by the presence of an Order Block (recent highest price area).
Order Block
The strategy defines Order Blocks as recent highs and lows within a look-back period (orderBlockLength set to 20 by default).
These blocks represent areas where large players (smart money) have historically been active, increasing the probability of the price reacting in these areas again.
Trade Management and Trade Direction
The user can set Trade Direction to either "Long Only," "Short Only," or "Both." This allows the strategy to adapt based on market conditions or trading preferences.
Based on the Trade Direction, the strategy either:
Closes open trades that are against new signals.
Allows only specific directional trades (either long or short).
Stop-loss levels are defined based on a fixed percentage (stop_loss_percent), which helps to manage risk and minimize losses.
Exit Rules
The strategy uses stop-loss levels for risk management.
A stop-loss price is set at a fixed percentage below the entry price for long positions or above the entry price for short positions.
When the price hits the defined stop-loss level, the trade is closed.
Liquidity Zones
The script identifies recent Swing Highs and Lows as potential liquidity zones. These are levels where price could react strongly, as they represent areas of interest for large traders.
The liquidity zones are plotted as crosses on the chart, marking areas where price may encounter significant buying or selling pressure.
Visual Feedback
The script uses visual markers (green for buy signals and red for sell signals) to indicate potential entries on the chart.
It also plots liquidity zones to help traders identify areas where stop hunts and liquidity grabs might occur.
Monthly Performance Dashboard
The script includes a performance tracking feature that displays monthly profit and loss metrics on the chart.
This dashboard allows the trader to see a visual representation of trading performance over time, providing insights into profitability and consistency.
The table shows profit or loss for each month and year, allowing the user to track the overall success of the strategy.
Key Benefits
Smart Money Concepts (SMC): This strategy incorporates SMC principles like order blocks and liquidity zones, which are used by institutional traders to determine potential market moves.
Zone Analysis: The use of Premium, Discount, and Equilibrium zones provides a solid framework for determining where to enter and exit trades based on price discounts or premiums.
Confluence: Signals are not taken in isolation. They are confirmed by factors like trend direction (SMA) and order blocks, providing greater trade accuracy.
Risk Management: By integrating stop-loss functionality, traders can manage their risks effectively.
Visual Performance Metrics: The monthly and yearly performance dashboard gives valuable feedback on how well the strategy has performed historically.
Practical Use
Buy in Discount Zone: Traders would be looking to buy when the price is discounted relative to its recent range and is above the SMA, indicating an overall uptrend.
Sell in Premium Zone: Conversely, traders would be looking to sell when the price is at a premium relative to its recent range and below the SMA, indicating an overall downtrend.
Order Block Confirmation: Ensures that buying or selling is supported by historical price behavior at significant levels, providing confidence that the market is likely to react at these areas.
This strategy is designed to help traders take advantage of price inefficiencies and areas where institutional traders are likely to be active, increasing the odds of successful trades. By leveraging Smart Money concepts and strong technical confluence, it aims to provide high-probability trade setups.

1. Pivot High/Low as Lines:
Purpose: Identifies local peaks (pivot highs) and troughs (pivot lows) in price and draws horizontal lines at these levels.
How it Works:
A pivot high occurs when the price is higher than the surrounding bars (based on the pivotLength parameter).
A pivot low occurs when the price is lower than the surrounding bars.
These pivots are drawn as horizontal lines at the price level of the pivot.
Visualization:
Pivot High: A red horizontal line is drawn at the price level of the pivot high.
Pivot Low: A green horizontal line is drawn at the price level of the pivot low.
Example:
Imagine the price is trending up, and at some point, it forms a peak. The script identifies this peak as a pivot high and draws a red line at the price of that peak. Similarly, if the price forms a trough, the script will draw a green line at the low point.
2. Moving Averages (20-day and 50-day):
Purpose: Plots the 20-day and 50-day simple moving averages (SMA) on the chart.
How it Works:
The 20-day SMA smooths the closing price over the last 20 days.
The 50-day SMA smooths the closing price over the last 50 days.
These lines provide an overview of short-term and long-term price trends.
Visualization:
20-day SMA: A blue line showing the 20-day moving average.
50-day SMA: An orange line showing the 50-day moving average.
Example:
When the price is above both moving averages, it indicates an uptrend. If the price crosses below these averages, it might signal a downtrend.
3. Supertrend:
Purpose: The Supertrend is an indicator based on the Average True Range (ATR) and is used to track the market trend.
How it Works:
When the market is in an uptrend, the Supertrend line will be green.
When the market is in a downtrend, the Supertrend line will be red.
Visualization:
Uptrend: The Supertrend line will be plotted in green.
Downtrend: The Supertrend line will be plotted in red.
Example:
If the price is above the Supertrend, the market is considered to be in an uptrend, and if the price is below the Supertrend, the market is in a downtrend.
4. Momentum (Rate of Change):
Purpose: Measures the rate at which the price changes over a set period, showing if the momentum is positive or negative.
How it Works:
The Rate of Change (ROC) measures how much the price has changed over a certain number of periods (e.g., 14).
Positive ROC indicates upward momentum, and negative ROC indicates downward momentum.
Visualization:
Positive ROC: A purple line is plotted above the zero line.
Negative ROC: A purple line is plotted below the zero line.
Example:
If the ROC line is above zero, it means the price is increasing, suggesting bullish momentum. If the ROC is below zero, it indicates bearish momentum.
5. Volume:
Purpose: Displays the volume of traded assets, giving insight into the strength of price movements.
How it Works:
The script will color the volume bars based on whether the price closed higher or lower than the previous bar.
Green bars indicate bullish volume (closing price higher than the previous bar), and red bars indicate bearish volume (closing price lower than the previous bar).
Visualization:
Bullish Volume: Green volume bars when the price closes higher.
Bearish Volume: Red volume bars when the price closes lower.
Example:
If you see a green volume bar, it suggests that the market is participating in an uptrend, and the price has closed higher than the previous period. Red bars indicate a downtrend or selling pressure.
6. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
Purpose: The MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of the price.
How it Works:
The MACD Line is the difference between the 12-period EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and the 26-period EMA.
The Signal Line is the 9-period EMA of the MACD Line.
The MACD Histogram shows the difference between the MACD line and the Signal line.
Visualization:
MACD Line: A blue line representing the difference between the 12-period and 26-period EMAs.
Signal Line: An orange line representing the 9-period EMA of the MACD line.
MACD Histogram: A red or green histogram that shows the difference between the MACD line and the Signal line.
Example:
When the MACD line crosses above the Signal line, it’s considered a bullish signal. When the MACD line crosses below the Signal line, it’s considered a bearish signal.
Full Chart Example:
Imagine you're looking at a price chart with all the indicators:
Pivot High/Low Lines are drawn as red and green horizontal lines.
20-day and 50-day SMAs are plotted as blue and orange lines, respectively.
Supertrend shows a green or red line indicating the trend.
Momentum (ROC) is shown as a purple line oscillating around zero.
Volume bars are green or red based on whether the close is higher or lower.
MACD appears as a blue line and orange line, with a red or green histogram showing the MACD vs. Signal line difference.
How the Indicators Work Together:
Trend Confirmation: If the price is above the Supertrend line and both SMAs are trending up, it indicates a strong bullish trend.
Momentum: If the ROC is positive and the MACD line is above the Signal line, it further confirms bullish momentum.
Volume: Increasing volume, especially with green bars, suggests that the trend is being supported by active participation.
By using these combined indicators, you can get a comprehensive view of the market's trend, momentum, and potential reversal points (via pivot highs and lows).
Adaptive DEMA Momentum Oscillator (ADMO)Overview:
The Adaptive DEMA Momentum Oscillator (ADMO) is an open-source technical analysis tool developed to measure market momentum using a Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) and adaptive standard deviation. By dynamically combining price deviation from the moving average with normalized standard deviation, ADMO provides traders with a powerful way to interpret market conditions.
Key Features:
Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA):
The core calculation of the indicator is based on DEMA, which is known for being more responsive to price changes compared to traditional moving averages. This makes the ADMO capable of capturing trend momentum effectively.
Standard Deviation Integration:
A normalized standard deviation is used to adaptively weight the oscillator. This makes the indicator more sensitive to market volatility, enhancing responsiveness during high volatility and reducing sensitivity during calmer periods.
Oscillator Representation:
The final oscillator value is derived from the combination of the DEMA-based Z-score and the normalized standard deviation. This final value is visualized as a color-coded histogram, reflecting bullish or bearish momentum.
Color-Coded Histogram:
Bullish Momentum: Values above zero are colored using a customizable bullish color (default: light green).
Bearish Momentum: Values below zero are colored using a customizable bearish color (default: red).
How It Works:
Inputs:
DEMA Length: Defines the period used for calculating the Double Exponential Moving Average. It can be adjusted from 1 to 200 to suit different trading styles.
Standard Deviation Length: Sets the lookback period for standard deviation calculations, which influences the responsiveness of the oscillator.
Standard Deviation Weight (StdDev Weight): Controls the weight given to the normalized standard deviation, allowing customization of the oscillator's sensitivity to volatility.
Calculation Steps:
Double Exponential Moving Average Calculation:
The DEMA is calculated using two exponential moving averages, which helps in reducing lag compared to a simple moving average.
Z-score Calculation:
The Z-score is derived by comparing the difference between the DEMA and its smoothed average (LSMA) to the standard deviation. This indicates how far the current value is from the mean in units of standard deviation.
Normalized Standard Deviation:
The standard deviation is normalized by subtracting the mean standard deviation and dividing by the standard deviation of the values. This helps to make the oscillator adaptive to recent changes in volatility.
Final Oscillator Value:
The final value is calculated by multiplying the Z-score with a factor based on the normalized standard deviation, resulting in a momentum indicator that adapts to different market conditions.
Visualization:
Histogram: The oscillator is plotted as a histogram, with color-coded bars showing the strength and direction of market momentum.
Positive (bullish) values are shown in green, indicating upward momentum.
Negative (bearish) values are shown in red, indicating downward momentum.
Zero Line: A zero line is plotted to provide a reference point, helping users quickly determine whether the current momentum is bullish or bearish.
Example Use Cases:
Momentum Identification:
ADMO helps identify the current market momentum by dynamically adapting to changes in market volatility. When the histogram is above zero and green, it indicates bullish conditions, whereas values below zero and red suggest bearish momentum.
Volatility-Adjusted Signals:
The normalized standard deviation weighting allows the ADMO to provide more reliable signals during different market conditions. This makes it particularly useful for traders who want to be responsive to market volatility while avoiding false signals.
Trend Confirmation and Divergence:
ADMO can be used to confirm the strength of a trend or identify potential divergences between price and momentum. This helps traders spot potential reversal points or continuation signals.
Summary:
The Adaptive DEMA Momentum Oscillator (ADMO) offers a unique approach by combining momentum analysis with adaptive standard deviation. The integration of DEMA makes it responsive to price changes, while the standard deviation adjustment helps it stay relevant in both high and low volatility environments. It's a versatile tool for traders who need an adaptive, momentum-based approach to technical analysis.
