Trendline Breakouts With Targets [ omerprıme ]Indicator Explanation (English)
This indicator is designed to detect trendline breakouts and provide early trading signals when the price breaks key support or resistance levels.
Trendline Detection
The indicator identifies recent swing highs and lows to construct dynamic trendlines.
These trendlines act as support in an uptrend and resistance in a downtrend.
Breakout Confirmation
When the price closes above a resistance trendline, the indicator generates a bullish breakout signal.
When the price closes below a support trendline, it generates a bearish breakout signal.
Filtering False Signals
To reduce false breakouts, additional conditions (such as candle confirmation, volume filters, or price momentum) can be applied.
Only significant and confirmed breakouts are highlighted.
Trading Logic
Buy signals are triggered when the price breaks upward through resistance with confirmation.
Sell signals are triggered when the price breaks downward through support with confirmation.

Moving Averages) to generate trading signals and trend confirmation.
Trend Identification with EMA
Two EMAs are used to determine the overall market trend (commonly a short-term EMA and a long-term EMA).
When the short EMA crosses above the long EMA, it indicates an uptrend.
When the short EMA crosses below the long EMA, it signals a downtrend.
Signal Confirmation with MACD
The MACD line and Signal line are analyzed to detect momentum shifts.
A bullish signal occurs when the MACD line crosses above the Signal line, especially if the EMAs confirm an uptrend.
A bearish signal occurs when the MACD line crosses below the Signal line, especially if the EMAs confirm a downtrend.
Trading Logic
Buy signals appear only when both the EMA trend is bullish and the MACD confirms momentum to the upside.
Sell signals appear only when both the EMA trend is bearish and the MACD confirms momentum to the downside.
Predictive Pivot Matrix OHLC data, integrates volume profile for POC/Value Area tracking (including virgin POC), applies rule-based "ML" scoring to evaluate pivot strength via factors like proximity, volume, touches, trend, and confluence, monitors adaptive success rates, projects 5-day future pivots using trend/volatility, detects overlapping confluence zones, and generates visuals (lines, labels, table), alerts, and buy/sell signals on key crossings.
Advantage RSI PredictorThe Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a widely used momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements, typically on a scale from 0 to 100, to identify overbought (above 70) or oversold (below 30) conditions. However, its reliance on historical data limits its ability to predict future price movements. To overcome this, an advanced indicator—termed the Advanced RSI Predictor (ARP)—can be developed to provide predictive bands for RSI levels, enhancing its forecasting potential.The ARP leverages machine learning techniques, such as Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, combined with traditional RSI calculations to forecast future RSI values and establish confidence intervals or bands. These bands represent a range within which the RSI is likely to fluctuate over a specified period, offering traders a probabilistic perspective on momentum shifts. The indicator starts with the standard RSI computation, using a 14-period lookback as a foundation, but enriches this by incorporating additional inputs like moving averages, volatility measures (e.g., Bollinger Bands width), and trading volume. These features are processed through an LSTM model trained on historical price and RSI data to predict future RSI trajectories.The output includes upper and lower predictive bands, typically set at a 95% confidence level, surrounding a central forecasted RSI line. For example, if the current RSI is 45, the ARP might project a band from 40 to 50 over the next five days, indicating potential momentum stability or a range for overbought/oversold thresholds. The bands adapt dynamically to market conditions—narrowing during stable trends and widening during volatile periods—using real-time data updates. This adaptability allows traders to anticipate breakouts or reversals before they manifest on the price chart.Validation can be strengthened through backtesting against historical data, ensuring the ARP’s bands align with significant market turns. This indicator proves especially valuable in trending markets, where traditional RSI levels (e.g., 70 or 30) may falter, offering a sophisticated tool for informed trading or investment decisions.

Brownian Motion Probabilistic Forecasting (Time Adaptive)Probabilistic Price Forecast Indicator
Overview
The Probabilistic Price Forecast is an advanced technical analysis tool designed for the TradingView platform. Instead of predicting a single future price, this indicator uses a Monte Carlo simulation to model thousands of potential future price paths, generating a cone of possibilities and calculating the probability of specific outcomes.
This allows traders to move beyond simple price targets and ask more sophisticated questions, such as: "What is the probability that this stock will increase by 5% over the next 24 hours?"
Core Concept: Geometric Brownian Motion
The indicator's forecasting model is built on the principles of Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) , a widely accepted mathematical model for describing the random movements of financial asset prices. The core idea is that the next price step is a function of the asset's historical trend (drift), its volatility, and a random "shock."
The formula used to project each price step in the simulation is:
next_price = current_price * exp( (μ - (σ²/2))Δt + σZ√(Δt) )
Where:
μ (mu) represents the drift , which is the average historical return.
σ (sigma) represents the volatility , measured by the standard deviation of historical returns.
Z is a random variable from a standard normal distribution, representing the random "shock" or new information affecting the price.
Δt (delta t) is the time step for each projection.
How It Works
The indicator performs a comprehensive analysis on the most recent bar of the chart:
**Historical Analysis**: It first analyzes a user-defined historical period (e.g., the last 240 hours of price data) to calculate the asset's historical drift (μ) and volatility (σ) from its logarithmic returns.
**Monte Carlo Simulation**: It then runs thousands of simulations (e.g., 2000) of future price paths over a specified forecast period (e.g., the next 24 hours). Each path is unique due to the random shock (Z) applied at every step.
**Probability Distribution**: After all simulations are complete, it collects the final price of each path and sorts them to build a probability distribution of potential outcomes.
**Visualization and Signaling**: Finally, it visualizes this distribution on the chart and generates signals based on the user's criteria.
Key Features & Configuration
The indicator is highly configurable, allowing you to tailor its analysis to your specific needs.
Time-Adaptive Periods
The lookback and forecast periods are defined in hours , not bars. The script automatically converts these hour-based inputs into the correct number of bars based on the chart's current timeframe, ensuring the analysis remains consistent across different chart resolutions.
Forecast Quartiles
You can visualize the forecast as a "cone of probability" on the chart. The indicator draws lines and a shaded area representing the price levels for different quartiles (percentiles) of the simulation results. By default, this shows the range between the 25th and 95th percentiles.
Independent Bullish and Bearish Signals
The indicator allows you to set independent criteria for bullish and bearish signals, providing greater flexibility. You can configure:
A bullish signal for an X% confidence of a Y% price increase.
A bearish signal for a W% confidence of a Z% price decrease.
For example, you can set it to alert you for a 90% chance of a 2% drop, while simultaneously looking for a 60% chance of a 10% rally.
How to Interpret the Indicator
The Forecast Cone : The blue shaded area on the chart represents the probable range of future prices. The width of the cone indicates the expected volatility; a wider cone means higher uncertainty. The price labels on the right side of the cone show the calculated percentile levels at the end of the forecast period.
Green Signal Label : A green "UP signal" label appears when the probability of the price increasing by your target percentage exceeds your defined confidence level.
Red Signal Label : A red "DOWN signal" label appears when the probability of the price decreasing by your target percentage exceeds your confidence level.
This tool provides a statistical edge for understanding future possibilities but should be used in conjunction with other analysis techniques.

3SMA (1H only) by tophengzkyThis script plots three Simple Moving Averages (SMA 10, 20, 50), but they are only visible when the chart timeframe is set to 1 hour (1H).
It helps traders focus on higher timeframe trend direction without cluttering charts on other timeframes.
SMA1 = 10 (white)
SMA2 = 20 (yellow)
SMA3 = 200 (red)
Works only on 1H timeframe
Useful for swing traders and intraday traders who rely on hourly trend confirmation.
why 1 hr only? the only purpose of this is just to know the bias of the market weather it will reverse or it will continue the trend. As long as the price action did not cross this 3 SMA's the trend will continue.
as a trend trader it is very useful this strategy.. make it simple!

RSI: chart overlay
This indicator maps RSI thresholds directly onto price. Since the EMA of price aligns with RSI’s 50-line, it draws a volatility-based band around the EMA to reveal levels such as 70 and 30.
By converting RSI values into visible price bands, the overlay lets you see exactly where price would have to move to hit traditional RSI boundaries. These bands adapt in real time to both price movement and market volatility, keeping the classic RSI logic intact while presenting it in the context of price action. This approach helps traders interpret RSI signals without leaving the main chart window.
The calculation uses the same components as the RSI: alternative derivation script: Wilder’s EMA for smoothing, a volatility-based unit for scaling, and a normalization factor. The result is a dynamic band structure on the chart, representing RSI boundary levels in actual price terms.
Key components and calculation breakdown:
Wilder’s EMA
Used as the anchor point for measuring price position.
myEMA = ta.rma(close, Length)
Volatility Unit
Derived from the EMA of absolute close-to-close price changes.
CC_vol = ta.rma(math.abs(close - close ), Length)
Normalization Factor
Scales the volatility unit to align with the RSI formula’s structure.
normalization_factor = 1 / (Length - 1)
Upper and Lower Boundaries
Defines price bands corresponding to selected RSI threshold values.
up_b = myEMA + ((upper - 50) / 50) * (CC_vol / normalization_factor)
down_b = myEMA - ((50 - lower) / 50) * (CC_vol / normalization_factor)
Inputs
RSI length
Upper boundary – RSI level above 50
Lower boundary – RSI level below 50
ON/OFF toggle for 50-point line (EMA of close prices)
ON/OFF toggle for overbought/oversold coloring (use with line chart)
Interpretation:
Each band on the chart represents a chosen RSI level.
When price touches a band, RSI is at that threshold.
The distance between moving average and bands adjusts automatically with volatility and your selected RSI length.
All calculations remain fully consistent with standard RSI values.
Feedback and code suggestions are welcome, especially regarding implementation efficiency and customization.

Volume Based Sampling [BackQuant]Volume Based Sampling
What this does
This indicator converts the usual time-based stream of candles into an event-based stream of “synthetic” bars that are created only when enough trading activity has occurred . You choose the activity definition:
Volume bars : create a new synthetic bar whenever the cumulative number of shares/contracts traded reaches a threshold.
Dollar bars : create a new synthetic bar whenever the cumulative traded dollar value (price × volume) reaches a threshold.
The script then keeps an internal ledger of these synthetic opens, highs, lows, closes, and volumes, and can display them as candles, plot a moving average calculated over the synthetic closes, mark each time a new sample is formed, and optionally overlay the native time-bars for comparison.
Why event-based sampling matters
Markets do not release information on a clock: activity clusters during news, opens/closes, and liquidity shocks. Event-based bars normalize for that heteroskedastic arrival of information: during active periods you get more bars (finer resolution); during quiet periods you get fewer bars (coarser resolution). Research shows this can reduce microstructure pathologies and produce series that are closer to i.i.d. and more suitable for statistical modeling and ML. In particular:
Volume and dollar bars are a common event-time alternative to time bars in quantitative research and are discussed extensively in Advances in Financial Machine Learning (AFML). These bars aim to homogenize information flow by sampling on traded size or value rather than elapsed seconds.
The Volume Clock perspective models market activity in “volume time,” showing that many intraday phenomena (volatility, liquidity shocks) are better explained when time is measured by traded volume instead of seconds.
Related market microstructure work on flow toxicity and liquidity highlights that the risk dealers face is tied to information intensity of order flow, again arguing for activity-based clocks.
How the indicator works (plain English)
Choose your bucket type
Volume : accumulate volume until it meets a threshold.
Dollar Bars : accumulate close × volume until it meets a dollar threshold.
Pick the threshold rule
Dynamic threshold : by default, the script computes a rolling statistic (mean or median) of recent activity to set the next bucket size. This adapts bar size to changing conditions (e.g., busier sessions produce more frequent synthetic bars).
Fixed threshold : optionally override with a constant target (e.g., exactly 100,000 contracts per synthetic bar, or $5,000,000 per dollar bar).
Build the synthetic bar
While a bucket fills, the script tracks:
o_s: first price of the bucket (synthetic open)
h_s: running maximum price (synthetic high)
l_s: running minimum price (synthetic low)
c_s: last price seen (synthetic close)
v_s: cumulative native volume inside the bucket
d_samples: number of native bars consumed to complete the bucket (a proxy for “how fast” the threshold filled)
Emit a new sample
Once the bucket meets/exceeds the threshold, a new synthetic bar is finalized and stored. If overflow occurs (e.g., a single native bar pushes you past the threshold by a lot), the code will emit multiple synthetic samples to account for the extra activity.
Maintain a rolling history efficiently
A ring buffer can overwrite the oldest samples when you hit your Max Stored Samples cap, keeping memory usage stable.
Compute synthetic-space statistics
The script computes an SMA over the last N synthetic closes and basic descriptors like average bars per synthetic sample, mean and standard deviation of synthetic returns, and more. These are all in event time , not clock time.
Inputs and options you will actually use
Data Settings

Filter : Mean or Median for the dynamic threshold. Median is more robust to spikes.
Use Fixed? / Fixed Threshold : override dynamic sizing with a constant target.
Max Stored Samples : cap on synthetic history to keep performance snappy.
Use Ring Buffer : turn on to recycle storage when at capacity.
Indicator Settings
SMA over last N samples : moving average in synthetic space . Because its index is sample count, not minutes, it adapts naturally: more updates in busy regimes, fewer in quiet regimes.
Visuals
Show Synthetic Bars : plot the synthetic OHLC candles.
Candle Color Mode :
Green/Red: directional close vs open
Volume Intensity: opacity scales with synthetic size
Neutral: single color
Adaptive: graded by how large the bucket was relative to threshold
Mark new samples : drop a small marker whenever a new synthetic bar prints.
Comparison & Research
Show Time Bars : overlay the native time-based candles to visually compare how the two sampling schemes differ.
How to read it, step by step
Turn on “Synthetic Bars” and optionally overlay “Time Bars.” You will see that during high-activity bursts, synthetic bars print much faster than time bars.
Watch the synthetic SMA . Crosses in synthetic space can be more meaningful because each update represents a roughly comparable amount of traded information.
Use the “Avg Bars per Sample” in the info table as a regime signal. Falling average bars per sample means activity is clustering, often coincident with higher realized volatility.
Try Dollar Bars when price varies a lot but share count does not; they normalize by dollar risk taken in each sample. Volume Bars are ideal when share count is a better proxy for information flow in your instrument.
Quant finance background and citations
Event time vs. clock time : Easley, López de Prado, and O’Hara advocate measuring intraday phenomena on a volume clock to better align sampling with information arrival. This framing helps explain volatility bursts and liquidity droughts and motivates volume-based bars.
Flow toxicity and dealer risk : The same authors show how adverse selection risk changes with the intensity and informativeness of order flow, further supporting activity-based clocks for modeling and risk management.
AFML framework : In Advances in Financial Machine Learning , event-driven bars such as volume, dollar, and imbalance bars are presented as superior sampling units for many ML tasks, yielding more stationary features and fewer microstructure distortions than fixed time bars. ( Alpaca )
Practical use cases
1) Regime-aware moving averages
The synthetic SMA in event time is not fooled by quiet periods: if nothing of consequence trades, it barely updates. This can make trend filters less sensitive to calendar drift and more sensitive to true participation.
2) Breakout logic on “equal-information” samples
The script exposes simple alerts such as breakout above/below the synthetic SMA . Because each bar approximates a constant amount of activity, breakouts are conditioned on comparable informational mass, not arbitrary time buckets.
3) Volatility-adaptive backtests
If you use synthetic bars as your base data stream, most signal rules become self-paced : entry and exit opportunities accelerate in fast markets and slow down in quiet regimes, which often improves the realism of slippage and fill modeling in research pipelines (pair this indicator with strategy code downstream).
4) Regime diagnostics
Avg Bars per Sample trending down: activity is dense; expect larger realized ranges.
Return StdDev (synthetic) rising: noise or trend acceleration in event time; re-tune risk.
Interpreting the info panel
Method : your sampling choice and current threshold.
Total Samples : how many synthetic bars have been formed.
Current Vol/Dollar : how much of the next bucket is already filled.
Bars in Bucket : native bars consumed so far in the current bucket.
Avg Bars/Sample : lower means higher trading intensity.
Avg Return / Return StdDev : return stats computed over synthetic closes .
Research directions you can build from here
Imbalance and run bars
Extend beyond pure volume or dollar thresholds to imbalance bars that trigger on directional order flow imbalance (e.g., buy volume minus sell volume), as discussed in the AFML ecosystem. These often further homogenize distributional properties used in ML. alpaca.markets
Volume-time indicators
Re-compute classical indicators (RSI, MACD, Bollinger) on the synthetic stream. The premise is that signals are updated by traded information , not seconds, which may stabilize indicator behavior in heteroskedastic regimes.
Liquidity and toxicity overlays
Combine synthetic bars with proxies of flow toxicity to anticipate spread widening or volatility clustering. For instance, tag synthetic bars that surpass multiples of the threshold and test whether subsequent realized volatility is elevated.
Dollar-risk parity sampling for portfolios
Use dollar bars to align samples across assets by notional risk, enabling cleaner cross-asset features and comparability in multi-asset models (e.g., correlation studies, regime clustering). AFML discusses the benefits of event-driven sampling for cross-sectional ML feature engineering.
Microstructure feature set
Compute duration in native bars per synthetic sample , range per sample , and volume multiple of threshold as inputs to state classifiers or regime HMMs . These features are inherently activity-aware and often predictive of short-horizon volatility and trend persistence per the event-time literature. ( Alpaca )
Tips for clean usage
Start with dynamic thresholds using Median over a sensible lookback to avoid outlier distortion, then move to Fixed thresholds when you know your instrument’s typical activity scale.
Compare time bars vs synthetic bars side by side to develop intuition for how your market “breathes” in activity time.
Keep Max Stored Samples reasonable for performance; the ring buffer avoids memory creep while preserving a rolling window of research-grade data.
