✅ Key Features
🔹 Three Moving Averages, One Indicator
Instead of cluttering your chart with multiple separate MAs, this script intelligently groups:
• MA1
• MA2
• MA3
…into a single, elegant indicator with unified settings and consistent visuals.
Each MA has its own:
• Length
• Rising/Falling/Flat dynamic color system
• Customizable colors
• Trend-based logic
This makes your chart cleaner, faster to read, and much more powerful.
⸻
🔹 Select Your MA Type
Switch all three MAs at once:
• EMA
• SMA
Perfect for testing different interpretations of trend behavior.
⸻
🔹 Advanced Trend Coloring
Each MA automatically adapts its color based on whether it is:
• Rising (uptrend)
• Falling (downtrend)
• Flat (consolidation / low momentum)
You decide the colors for each state — and for each MA individually.
⸻
🔹 MA Crossover Bar Highlights
When MA1 crosses MA2, the script highlights the exact bar with:
• White for bullish crossovers
• Purple for bearish crossovers
This makes trend shifts and potential reversals instantly visible, directly on price bars.
⸻
🔹 Source Flexibility
All three MAs can use any source series:
• Close, Open, HL2, HLC3, OHLC4, etc.
• Or any other series available on your chart
This gives you much more flexibility than standard MA indicators.
⸻
🔹 Beautiful, Clean & Fully Customizable
Every color — rising, falling, flat, crossover — can be changed.
All plots are clearly named (MA1, MA2, MA3) for easier control in the Style panel.
This script brings together:
• clarity
• flexibility
• and clean design
…into a compact, professional-grade indicator.
⸻
🎯 Why this Indicator Helps
You get the full power of three trend tools at once — but without the chart clutter.
Use it to:
• Spot early trend reversals
• Track short/mid/long-term structure simultaneously
• Identify momentum shifts in real time
• Visualize crossovers instantly
• Keep your chart clean and readable
It’s ideal for scalpers, day traders, swing traders, and anyone who wants a powerful yet simple way to read market conditions.

指标和策略
Triple EMA/SMA + crossoverThis script combines three moving averages into one clean indicator.
You can choose the type of MA (EMA or SMA), the source (close, open, HL2, etc.), and the length of each line. All three MAs also change color depending on whether they’re rising, falling, or flat.
MA1 and MA2 crossovers are highlighted directly on the candles (white for bullish, purple for bearish), which makes it easy to spot momentum shifts without adding extra indicators.
Each MA has its own color settings for rising/falling/flat, so you can adjust the look to match your chart style.
Nothing fancy or over-engineered — just a simple and flexible way to monitor 3 MAs at once, read trend direction at a glance, and see crossovers immediately.
Predictive Analysis Engine — Adaptive MACD Forecasting with R² SProfessional and Rule-Compliant Description (Ready for Publishing)
This description explains every component of the script in detail, highlights its originality, and provides traders with clear usage instructions — exactly what TradingView expects.
Predictive Analysis Engine (PAE)
This script is a predictive analysis model that combines trend filtering, linear forecasting, stability analysis (R²), and outlier filtering using ATR to produce an advanced, leading-style version of MACD rather than a traditional lagging one.
The indicator does not rely on random elements; it is built on four core components that work together:
1. Stability Measurement Using R²
The coefficient of determination (R²) is calculated based on the correlation between price and time, then normalized to a 0–1 scale.
A higher R² indicates more stable price movement, allowing the script to increase forecast accuracy.
Here, R² acts as a primary component of the Confidence Filter.
2. Forecasted Price Using Linear Regression
Instead of relying solely on the current price, the script uses:
Linear Regression
Weighted blending between the forecasted price and actual price
This enables the script to build a Leading MACD based on an “advanced” price that anticipates probable movement.
3. Advanced MACD With Adaptive Smoothing
MACD is applied to the blended (real + forecasted) price using:
Fast EMA
Slow EMA
MACD base
Optional TEMA for reducing signal lag
Adjustable histogram smoothing
This process makes MACD more responsive with significantly less lag, reacting faster to predicted movements.
4. Predictive MACD (Projected MACD)
Linear Regression is applied again — but this time to:
MACD
Signal
Histogram
to generate projected versions of each line (proj_macd, proj_signal), while proj_hist is used to produce early signals before the actual crossover occurs.
5. Volatility Filtering Using ATR & Volatility Ratio
ATR is used to evaluate:
Strength of movement
Overextension levels
Signal quality
ATR is combined with R² to compute:
Confidence = R² × Volatility Ratio
This suppresses weak signals and boosts high-quality, reliable ones.
6. Predictive Signals + Safety Filters
A signal is triggered when:
proj_hist crosses the 0 level
Confidence exceeds the required threshold
The real histogram is not excessively stretched (extra safety)
The script includes:
BUY / SELL
BUY_STRONG / SELL_STRONG
based on the smoothed histogram trend.
7. Coloring, Background & Visual Enhancements
The script colors:
The histogram
Chart background
Signal lines
to clearly highlight momentum direction and confidence conditions.
8. Built-In Alerts
The script provides ready-to-use alerts:
BUY Alert
SELL Alert
Both based on the predictive MACD model.
How to Use the Script
Add it to any timeframe and any market.
BUY/SELL signals are generated from the projected histogram crossover.
Higher Confidence = stronger signal.
Background colors help visualize trend transitions instantly.
Recommended to combine with support/resistance or price action.
Indicator Objective
This script is designed to deliver early insight into momentum shifts using a blend of:
Linear forecasting
Trend stability via R²
Signal quality filtering via ATR

Opening Range Box, 2 SessionsOpening Range & Session Box Indicator
This indicator automatically draws Opening Range (OR) boxes and Session Boxes based on specific time zone settings, helping you visualize key trading periods across different global markets.
Key Features:
Custom Sessions: Define two independent trading sessions (e.g., New York and London).
Time Zone Selection: Choose the exact time zone for each session from a simple dropdown menu, ensuring accurate session mapping regardless of your chart's time zone.
Opening Range Definition: The initial portion of each session (defined by the Opening Range Minutes input) establishes the high and low of the box.
Offset Lines: Automatically draws two percentage offset lines inside the box, allowing you to easily track price movement relative to the Opening Range high and low (e.g., 10% retracement levels).
How to Use the Inputs:
Session A/B Timezone - Select the time zone for Session A (e.g., America/New_York).
Session A/B Time - Define the start and end time for Session A (e.g., 0930-1600).
Opening Range Minutes - Set how long the initial opening range period lasts (e.g., 30 minutes).
Percent from High/Low for Line - Set the percentage distance for the inner offset lines (e.g., 10.0 for 10% retracement).
Number of Boxes to Show - Controls the number of historical session boxes and lines that remain visible on the chart.
[CT] Kurutoga MTF HistogramWhat is Kurutoga MTF Histogram?
The Kurutoga MTF Histogram is a multi-time-frame momentum and mean-deviation tool.
It measures how far the current close is trading away from a rolling midpoint of price and then displays that deviation as a color-coded histogram.
Instead of looking only at one lookback, this version plots three Kurutoga “leads” at the same time:
Kurutoga Lead (x1) – base length
Kurutoga Lead 2x – slower, 2 × base length
Kurutoga Lead 4x – slowest, 4 × base length
Each lead is calculated both on the chart’s timeframe (LTF) and on a Higher Time Frame (HTF) of your choice, so you can see short-term deviation inside a higher-time-frame structure.
4-color Kurutoga scheme
Each Kurutoga lead uses a 4-color MACD-style scheme:
For a given lead:
Up Light – divergence ≥ 0 and rising compared to the previous bar
Up Dark – divergence ≥ 0 and falling (positive but losing momentum)
Down Light – divergence < 0 and falling (bearish momentum increasing)
Down Dark – divergence < 0 and rising (negative but contracting)
By default the same four teal / red hues are shared across x1, x2, and x4. The only difference between the leads is transparency:
x1 = strongest (least transparent)
x2 = medium opacity
x4 = faintest
This lets you see all three layers at once without the chart becoming a solid block of color.
The HTF areas use the same palette but with an extra transparency offset applied, so they appear as soft background bands rather than competing with the histograms.
Inputs and how to use them
1. Base Length
Defines the lookback for the main Kurutoga Lead.
The script automatically creates:
len1 = baseLength
len2 = baseLength × 2
len3 = baseLength × 4
Smaller base lengths → faster, more reactive histograms.
Larger base lengths → smoother, trend-focused behavior.
2. Higher Time Frame
This is the HTF used for the area plots and HTF midpoints.
Examples:
5-minute chart with HTF = 30 or 60 minutes
15-minute chart with HTF = 4H or 1D
The idea is to trade on the lower timeframe while seeing how far price is stretched relative to a higher-time-frame range midpoint.
3. Show / Hide toggles
Under “Show / Hide” you can independently turn on/off:
Kurutoga Lead (x1)
Kurutoga Lead 2x
Kurutoga Lead 4x
HTF Lead, HTF Lead 2x, HTF Lead 4x
This lets you:
Run only a single Kurutoga if you want a clean panel, or
Stack multiple leads for a “multi-speed” view of extension and mean reversion.
4. Color Scheme (4-color Kurutoga)
Up Light / Up Dark / Down Light / Down Dark – base hues used for every lead.
Lead opacity (x1, 2x, 4x) – sets how strong or faint each lead appears.
x1 is usually your primary “trading speed.”
x2 and x4 can be faded so they act as context.
Extra transparency for HTF areas – additional opacity applied on top of each lead’s opacity when drawing HTF areas. This keeps the HTF layer subtle.
You can fine-tune the exact teal/red values here to match your personal palette.
Practical reading & trade ideas
Trend alignment
When all three Kurutoga leads (x1, 2x, 4x) are above zero, price is trading above its rolling mid-range on multiple speeds → bullish environment.
When all three are below zero, you have a multi-speed bearish environment.
Mixed readings (e.g., x1 above zero, x4 below zero) can signal transition or mean-reversion areas.
Momentum vs exhaustion
Up Light / Down Light (light colors) show momentum expanding in that direction.
Up Dark / Down Dark (dark colors) show momentum contracting – price still on that side of zero, but the push is weakening.
After a run of Up Light bars, a shift to Up Dark may hint at a stall or pullback.
After a run of Down Light bars, a shift to Down Dark may hint at short covering / bounce potential.
Multi-time-frame confluence
Use the HTF areas as a backdrop:
If LTF Kurutoga leads are above zero while the HTF area is also positive (and ideally expanding), that’s strong bullish alignment.
If LTF leads are trying to flip up while HTF divergence is still deeply negative, you may be looking at a counter-trend bounce rather than a true trend change.
Example setups
Trend-following entries:
Look for x2 & x4 leads on the same side of zero as the HTF area, then use x1 color shifts (from Down Dark → Up Light or vice versa) to fine-tune entries in the direction of that higher-time-frame bias.
Mean-reversion fades:
Watch for extreme Kurutoga values where x1/x2 are strongly extended beyond zero while color flips from Light to Dark (momentum stalling) against an opposing HTF backdrop .
Notes
The indicator is non-directional by itself – it measures distance from a rolling midpoint rather than trend structure or order flow. It works best when combined with your existing price action/trend tools (moving averages, HLBO, structure zones, etc.).
Because HTF values are brought down via request.security, choose HTF settings that make sense for your product and session (for example, don’t use very high HTFs on thin intraday markets).
Use the Kurutoga MTF Histogram as a visual scanner for extension, momentum regime, and multi-speed alignment, then layer your own entry/exit rules on top.

SuperEMA RSI Strategy [wjdtks255]Indicator Description and Trading Guide for “SuperEMA RSI Strategy ”
Indicator Name: SuperEMA RSI Strategy
Description
The SuperEMA RSI Strategy combines fast and slow Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) to identify key trend changes, enhanced with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to filter momentum strength. It plots clear buy and sell signals based on EMA crossovers while highlighting trend zones with colored backgrounds for quick visual reference. This multi-timeframe compatible indicator is suitable for stocks, cryptocurrencies, and other markets.
How to Use the SuperEMA RSI Strategy
Buy Signal:
Enter a long position when the short-term EMA crosses above the long-term EMA, indicated by a green circle below the price bar. Confirm the trend with a green background and consider RSI values showing sufficient momentum (typically RSI above 50).
Sell Signal:
Enter a short position when the short-term EMA crosses below the long-term EMA, indicated by a red circle above the price bar. Confirm the bearish trend with a red background and verify momentum weakening (typically RSI below 50).
Trend Confirmation:
Use the background color-shaded zones to identify prevailing trend strength and avoid counter-trend trades.
RSI Application:
Optionally enable RSI display to avoid overbought/oversold entries by watching for levels above 70 (overbought) or below 30 (oversold).
Additional Tips
Adjust EMA and RSI parameters to suit different timeframes or asset volatility.
Combine this indicator with volume analysis and other technical tools for enhanced signal reliability.
Implement well-defined stop-loss and take-profit levels to manage risk effectively.

BTC Dual Cycle: Stats DashboardOverview
"Price takes the elevator down, but takes the stairs up."
This indicator is a macro-analysis tool designed to visualize the true duration of Bitcoin’s market cycles. Unlike standard oscillators that focus on short-term price action, the Macro Cycle Tracker filters out the noise to answer two fundamental questions:
Are we in a phase of Expansion (Price Discovery)?
Are we in a phase of Recovery (Repairing the damage of a crash)?
It visually separates the market into two distinct regimes based on a configurable drawdown threshold (default: -50%) and provides real-time statistics on how long these phases historically last.
How It Works
The script tracks the All-Time High (ATH) and divides market history into two colored zones:
🟢 The Green Zone (Expansion / Price Discovery)
Trigger: Starts immediately when Bitcoin breaks the previous ATH.
Meaning: The market is healthy, profitable, and exploring new valuation levels.
End: The zone ends when price drops by 50% (configurable) from the cycle top.
🔴 The Red Zone (Recovery / Capitulation)
Trigger: Starts when price drops below the 50% threshold from the peak.
Meaning: The asset is "underwater." This zone remains active persistently—even during relief rallies—until the previous ATH is fully reclaimed.
Philosophy: A cycle is not over until the damage is repaired.
Key Features
Cycle Timer: Displays the exact number of days passed for every historical cycle directly on the chart.
Live Counter: Shows the current duration of the active phase (e.g., "ZONE GREEN: 450 Days...").
Statistical Dashboard: A table in the bottom-right corner automatically calculates the Mean and Median duration (in days) for both Green and Red phases. This allows you to compare the current cycle against historical averages.
How to Use
For Investors (HODLers): Use the Red Zone to understand the "Time Cost" of a bear market. It helps visualize that recovery takes patience and that price action below the old ATH is merely accumulation.
For Analysts: Use the Dashboard statistics to project potential cycle turning points based on historical median durations.
Settings
Drop Percent (%): Default is 50%. This defines the "Crash" threshold. You can adjust this to 20% or 30% for more sensitive cycle detection.
Text Size: Adjust the size of the dashboard text to fit your screen resolution.

Gann Levels (Auto) by RRR📌 Gann Levels (Auto) — Intraday, Swing & Elliott Wave Precision Tool
Gann Levels (Auto) is a high-accuracy price-reaction indicator designed for intraday scalpers, swing traders, and Elliott Wave traders who want clean, auto-updating support and resistance levels without manually drawing anything.
The indicator automatically detects the latest swing high & swing low and plots the 8 Gann Octave Levels between them. These levels act as a complete price map—showing equilibrium, structure, trend continuation zones, and reversal points with extreme precision.
🔥 Why This Indicator Stands Out
✔ Fully automatic swing detection
Levels update as structure evolves — no manual adjustments.
✔ All Gann Octave levels
Plots 1/8 through 8/8 including the critical 4/8 midpoint.
✔ Intraday-optimized
Exceptional on 1m, 3m, 5m, and 15m charts.
✔ Ultra-clean support & resistance
Levels act as reliable barriers and breakout zones.
⭐ MOST IMPORTANT LEVELS FOR INTRADAY
4/8 – Midpoint (Major Decision Pivot)
Strongest Gann level.
Controls trend or reversal for the session.
Breakout → Trend Day
Rejection → Reversal Day
8/8 & 0/8 – Extreme Structure Edges
Most likely zones for intraday reversals.
Perfect for scalp entries when combined with volume exhaustion.
🎯 How to Trade ELLIOTT WAVE Using Gann Levels
This indicator is exceptionally powerful when combined with Elliott Wave Theory.
Here is how to use it wave-by-wave:
🔵 Wave 2 → Identify Bottom Using 0/8 or 1/8 Levels
Wave 2 typically retraces deep but remains above key structure.
Gann confirmation:
Price stops at 0/8 or 1/8 zone
Rejection wick + low volume breakdown attempt
Bullish intent starts forming
This gives a perfect Wave 3 entry zone.
🔴 Wave 3 → Breakout Above 4/8 Midpoint
Wave 3 is the strongest impulsive wave.
The 4/8 level works like a force-field.
Wave 3 confirmation:
Price breaks and retests 4/8
Strong volume
No deep pullbacks after break
This is one of the most reliable Elliott + Gann trades.
🟡 Wave 4 → Uses 3/8 or 5/8 as Support/Resistance
Wave 4 is corrective and shallow compared to Wave 2.
Gann alignment:
Wave 4 often consolidates between 3/8 and 5/8
Levels act like range boundaries
Avoid trading inside chop; wait for breakout
This gives perfect continuation entries for Wave 5.
🟣 Wave 5 → Ends Near 7/8 or 8/8 Extreme Zone
Wave 5 usually ends in overbought territory.
Gann confirmation:
Price hits 7/8 or 8/8
Momentum weakens
Divergence builds (RSI/MACD optional)
Last push = exhaustion
This is where reversals or major pullbacks begin.
💥 BONUS: Corrective Waves (A-B-C)
Wave A:
Often rejects from 4/8 or 5/8.
Wave B:
Typically trapped between 3/8–5/8.
Wave C:
Usually ends around 0/8 (for bullish trend)
or 8/8 (for bearish trend).
These zones give ultra-high confidence entries.
⚙️ Who This Indicator Is Perfect For
Elliott Wave traders
Intraday scalpers
Swing traders
Price action & structure traders
Traders who want automatic support-resistance levels
Traders who want clean, non-cluttered levels

◇ FEATURES ADDED TO THE ORIGINAL SCRIPT
Failed 2 Down Classification
Failed 2 Up Classification
◆ DETAILS
The Strat is a trading methodology developed by Rob Smith that offers an objective approach to trading by focusing on the 3 universal scenarios regarding candle behavior:
SCENARIO ONE
The 1 Bar - Inside Bar: A candle that doesn't take out the highs or the lows of the previous candle; aka consolidation.
These are shown as gray candles by default.
SCENARIO TWO
The 2 Bar - Directional Bar: A candle that takes out one side of the previous candle; aka trending (or at least attempting to trend).
SCENARIO THREE
The 3 Bar - Outside Bar: A candle that takes out both sides of the previous candle; aka broadening formation.
In addition to Rob's 3 universal scenarios, this indicator identifies two variations of 2 bars:
Failed 2 up: A candle that takes out the high of the previous candle but closes bearish.
Failed 2 down: A candle that takes out the low of the previous candle but closes bullish.
◆ SETTINGS

Color 2 (Inside 1) - Default is gray
Color 3 (Outside 3) - Default is dark purple
Color 4 (2 up) - Default is aqua
Color 5 (2 down) - Default is white
◆ USAGE
It's recommended to use The Strat Lite with a top down analysis so you can find lower timeframe positions with higher timeframe context.
◇ TOP DOWN ANALYSIS
MONTHLY LEVELS
Starting on a monthly chart, the previous month's high and low are manually plotted.
WEEKLY LEVELS
Dropping down to a weekly chart, the previous week's high and low are manually plotted.
DAILY LEVELS
Dropping down to a daily chart, the previous day's high and low are manually plotted.
12H LEVELS
Dropping down to a 12h chart, the previous 12h's high and low are manually plotted.
ANALYSIS
The monthly low was broken, creating a lower low (aka a broadening formation), signalling potential exhaustion risk, which can be a catalyst for reversals. The daily candle that tested the monthly low closed as a Failed 2 Down—potentially an early sign of a reversal. With these 2 confluences, it's reasonable to expect the next daily candle to be a 2 Up. Now it's time to look for a lower timeframe entry.
◇ LOWER TIMEFRAME POSITION
HOURLY PRICE ACTION
Dropping down to an hourly chart, we're anticipating a 2 Up on the daily timeframe, so we're looking for a bullish pattern to enter a position long. I personally like the 6:00 AM UTC-5 hourly candle, as it's the midpoint of the day (for futures).
In this specific example, we see the opening gap was filled and there's a potential 2-1-2 bullish reversal set up.
At this point, price can either do one of 5 things:
Form another 1 (inside) candle
Form a 2 up (directional) candle
Form a 2 down (directional) candle
Form a 2 up, fail, and potentially flip to form a bearish 3 (outside) candle
Form a 2 down, fail, and potentially flip to form a bullish 3 (outside) candle
Knowing the finite potential outcomes helps us set up our positions, manage them accordingly, and flip bias if needed.
POSITION SETUP
Here we can set up a position long AND short. To go long, we set a buy stop at the 1h high and stop loss just below the 50% level of the inside candle; to go short, we set a sell stop at 1h low and stop loss just above the 50% level of the inside candle.
If the short gets triggered first, we can wait for price to move in our favor before cancelling the buy order. If the short becomes a failed 2 down, potentially reversing to become a bullish 3, we can either wait for the stop loss to trigger and for the long position to trigger OR we can move the buy stop to our short stop loss and move the long stop loss to the low of the 1h candle.
POSITION REFINEMENT
For an even tighter risk-to-reward, we can drop to a lower timeframe and look for setups that would be an early trigger of the 1h entry. Just know, the lower you go the more noise there is—increasing risk of getting stopped out before the 1h trigger.
Above are 30m refined entries.
In this example, the long buy stop was triggered. It closed bullish, so the sell stop order can be cancelled.
◇ TARGETS & POSITION MANAGEMENT
TARGETS
These depend on whether you intend to scalp, day trade, or swing trade, but targets are typically the highs of previous candles (when bullish) and lows of previous candles (when bearish). It's advised to be cautious of swing pivots as there's a risk of exhaustion and reversal at these levels.
In this example, the nearest target was the previous 12h high and the next target was the previous day high; if you're a swing trader, you could target previous week's high and previous month's high.
POSITION MANAGEMENT
This largely depends on your risk tolerance, but it's common to either:
Move stop loss slightly into profit
Trail stop loss behind higher highs (bullish) or lower lows (bearish)
Scale out of positions at potential pivot points, leaving a runner
Scale into positions on pullbacks on the way to target
◆ WRAP UP
As demonstrated, The Strat Lite offers a stripped down version of the Strat Assistant—making it visually simple for more experienced Strat traders. By following a top-down approach with The Strat methodology, you can find high probability setups and manage risk with relative ease.
