ATR Bands with ATR Cross + InfoTableOverview
This Pine Script™ indicator is designed to enhance traders' ability to analyze market volatility, trend direction, and position sizing directly on their TradingView charts. By plotting Average True Range (ATR) bands anchored at the OHLC4 price, displaying crossover labels, and providing a comprehensive information table, this tool offers a multifaceted approach to technical analysis.
Key Features:
ATR Bands Anchored at OHLC4: Visual representation of short-term and long-term volatility bands centered around the average price.
OHLC4 Dotted Line: A dotted line representing the average of Open, High, Low, and Close prices.
ATR Cross Labels: Visual cues indicating when short-term volatility exceeds long-term volatility and vice versa.
Information Table: Displays real-time data on market volatility, calculated position size based on risk parameters, and trend direction relative to the 20-period Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA).
Purpose
The primary purpose of this indicator is to:
Assess Market Volatility: By comparing short-term and long-term ATR values, traders can gauge the current volatility environment.
Determine Optimal Position Sizing: A calculated position size based on user-defined risk parameters helps in effective risk management.
Identify Trend Direction: Comparing the current price to the 20-period SMMA assists in determining the prevailing market trend.
Enhance Decision-Making: Visual cues and real-time data enable traders to make informed trading decisions with greater confidence.
How It Works
1. ATR Bands Anchored at OHLC4
Average True Range (ATR) Calculations
Short-Term ATR (SA): Calculated over a 9-period using ta.atr(9).
Long-Term ATR (LA): Calculated over a 21-period using ta.atr(21).
Plotting the Bands
OHLC4 Dotted Line: Plotted using small circles to simulate a dotted line due to Pine Script limitations.
ATR(9) Bands: Plotted in blue with semi-transparent shading.
ATR(21) Bands: Plotted in orange with semi-transparent shading.
Overlap: Bands can overlap, providing visual insights into changes in volatility.
2. ATR Cross Labels
Crossover Detection:
SA > LA: Indicates increasing short-term volatility.
Detected using ta.crossover(SA, LA).
A green upward label "SA>LA" is plotted below the bar.
SA < LA: Indicates decreasing short-term volatility.
Detected using ta.crossunder(SA, LA).
A red downward label "SA LA, then the market is considered volatile.
Display: Shows "Yes" or "No" based on the comparison.
b. Position Size Calculation
Risk Total Amount: User-defined input representing the total capital at risk.
Risk per 1 Stock: User-defined input representing the risk associated with one unit of the asset.
Purpose: Helps traders determine the appropriate position size based on their risk tolerance and current market volatility.
c. Is Price > 20 SMMA?
SMMA Calculation:
Calculated using a 20-period Smoothed Moving Average with ta.rma(close, 20).
Logic: If the current close price is above the SMMA, the trend is considered upward.
Display: Shows "Yes" or "No" based on the comparison.
How to Use
Step 1: Add the Indicator to Your Chart
Copy the Script: Copy the entire Pine Script code into the TradingView Pine Editor.
Save and Apply: Save the script and click "Add to Chart."
Step 2: Configure Inputs
Risk Parameters: Adjust the "Risk Total Amount" and "Risk per 1 Stock" in the indicator settings to match your personal risk management strategy.
Step 3: Interpret the Visuals
ATR Bands
Width of Bands: Wider bands indicate higher volatility; narrower bands indicate lower volatility.
Band Overlap: Pay attention to areas where the blue and orange bands diverge or converge.
OHLC4 Dotted Line
Serves as a central reference point for the ATR bands.
Helps visualize the average price around which volatility is measured.
ATR Cross Labels
"SA>LA" Label:
Indicates short-term volatility is increasing relative to long-term volatility.
May signal potential breakout or trend acceleration.
"SA 20 SMMA?
Use this to confirm trend direction before entering or exiting trades.
Practical Example
Imagine you are analyzing a stock and notice the following:
ATR(9) Crosses Above ATR(21):
A green "SA>LA" label appears.
The info table shows "Yes" for "Is ATR-based price volatile."
Position Size:
Based on your risk parameters, the position size is calculated.
Price Above 20 SMMA:
The info table shows "Yes" for "Is price > 20 SMMA."
Interpretation:
The market is experiencing increasing short-term volatility.
The trend is upward, as the price is above the 20 SMMA.
You may consider entering a long position, using the calculated position size to manage risk.
Customization
Colors and Transparency:
Adjust the colors of the bands and labels to suit your preferences.
Risk Parameters:
Modify the default values for risk amounts in the inputs.
Moving Average Period:
Change the SMMA period if desired.
Limitations and Considerations
Lagging Indicators: ATR and SMMA are lagging indicators and may not predict future price movements.
Market Conditions: The effectiveness of this indicator may vary across different assets and market conditions.
Risk of Overfitting: Relying solely on this indicator without considering other factors may lead to suboptimal trading decisions.
Conclusion
This indicator combines essential elements of technical analysis to provide a comprehensive tool for traders. By visualizing ATR bands anchored at the OHLC4, indicating volatility crossovers, and providing real-time data on position sizing and trend direction, it aids in making informed trading decisions.
Whether you're a novice trader looking to understand market volatility or an experienced trader seeking to refine your strategy, this indicator offers valuable insights directly on your TradingView charts.

Version 1.0
Position Cost DistributionThe Position Cost Distribution indicator (also known as the Market Position Overview, Chip Distribution, or CYQ Algorithm) provides an estimate of how shares are distributed across different price levels. Visually, it resembles the Volume Profile indicator, though they rely on distinct computational approaches.
🟠 Principle
The Position Cost Distribution algorithm is based on the principle that a security's total shares outstanding usually remains constant, except under conditions like stock splits, reverse splits, or new share issuance. It views all trading activity as simply exchanging share positions between holders at different price points.
By analyzing daily trade volume and the prior day's distribution, the algorithm infers the resulting share distribution after each day. By tracking these inferred transpositions over time, the indicator builds up an aggregate view of the estimated share concentration at each price level. This provides insights into potential buying and selling pressure zones that could form support or resistance areas.
Together with the Volume Profile, the Position Cost Distribution gives traders multiple lenses for examining market structure from both a volume and positional standpoint. Both can help identify meaningful technical price levels.
🟠 Algorithm
The algorithm initializes by allocating all shares to the price range encompassed by the first bar displayed on the chart. Preferably, the chart window should include the stock's IPO date, allowing the model to distribute shares specifically to the IPO price.
For subsequent trading sessions, the indicator performs the following calculations:
1. The daily turnover ratio is calculated by dividing the bar's trading volume by total outstanding shares.
2. For each price level (bucket), the number of shares is reduced by the turnover amount to represent shares transferring from existing holders.
3. The bar's total volume is then added to buckets corresponding to that period's price range.
Currently, the model assumes each share has an equal probability of being exchanged, regardless of how long ago it was acquired or at what price. Potential optimizations could incorporate factors like making shares held longer face a smaller chance of transfer compared to more recently purchased shares.

Section Summaries
Table Settings: Allows users to select position and font size from drop-down menus. Displays current settings and potential profit/loss values.
Price Points: Users can set their Entry and select whether they want to include a DCA entry, Stop Loss price, Liquidation Buffer %, Take Profit levels and the amount of position to close at each level.
Risk Management: Users fill out their Account Size, set their Risk % (or fixed $ amount) for each Entry, set Manual Leverage, or allow the indicator to automatically choose the leverage based on the Stop Loss price distance from Entry and the Risk % per Entry.
User-Input Descriptions
DCA Price: The price at which users initiate their second, equally sized and leveraged position when using a Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) strategy. Upon reaching the DCA Price, the Entry Price adjusts to the Avg Price, calculated as the midpoint between initial and DCA entries.
Liquidation Buffer: A pre-set percentage that determines how close to the Stop Loss a position can get before it's liquidated. This assists the Auto Leverage feature in optimizing the leverage amount according to risk tolerance.
Risk per Entry: The proportion of the account, in % or a fixed dollar amount, that users are willing to risk for each trading position. If DCA is checked, this will assume users are entering with half of the total position size per entry.
Automatic Leverage: Auto Leverage automatically determines the optimal leverage level for a trade based on the user's Stop Loss price distance from the Entry point and the user-defined risk percentage per Entry. It also considers a user-defined Liquidation Buffer, which is a preset percentage determining how close to the Stop Loss a position can get before it's liquidated. This tool allows traders to optimize their leverage amount according to their risk tolerance.
Max Leverage: The highest leverage level users are willing to use, even if the exchange permits higher. This limit applies when the Auto Leverage feature is enabled.
Limit Order + ATR Stop-Loss [TANHEF]This indicator enables interactive placement of limit or stop-limit orders with a trailing ATR stop-loss and optional profit target (with alerts). Refer to the images below for further clarification.
Why use a trailing stop-loss?
A trailing stop-loss serves as an exit strategy when price moves against you, while also allowing you to adjust the exit point further into profit when price moves favorably. The ATR (Average True Range), a reliable measure of volatility, acts as an effective risk management tool, functioning as a trailing stop-loss.
Indicator Explanation
Initial indicator placement: Select Long Limit or Long-Stop Limit order.
Change Entry Type: Switch between Long and Short within settings.
Modify entry price: Drag circle, adjust in settings, or re-add indicator to chart.
Optional Profit Target: Use Risk/Reward ratio or specify price.
Entry anticipation: Estimated ATR stop-loss and profit target as blue circles (fluctuates with volatility changes).
Entry triggered: Actual ATR stop-loss and profit target plotted.
Exit conditions: Stop-loss or profit target hit, exit entry.
Update Frequency: Continuously, Bar Open, or Bar Open on entry then continuously.
ATR Overlap: no entry occurs if the ATR overlaps with price (stop-loss 'hit' already on entry bar)
Table: Displays input settings selected.
Show Only On Ticker: Ability to hide indicator on other tickers.

Entry helperHello traders,
This is a script I use daily as a scalper and it helps me a lot, maybe it can help you, this is why I am sharing it!
PART 1 - DESCRIPTION
This program is specifically designed to help scalpers but can be used for all types of trading but won't be as useful.
This script is what I call an entry helper as it calculates dynamically the position size, stop loss and take profit levels and more.
When scalping and placing market entry orders, the price can move significantely while you are calculating your position size according to your stop loss, capital, risk and especially close price that changes very quickly, this results in a risk that is not ideally controlled and personally was a source of frustration and stress. I wanted to enter my quantity and stop loss values as fast as possible and make the process easier.
This script automates the calculation of the position size, stop loss and take profit levels according the the users input and prints the data visibly on the screen so it is easy to copy by the trader. It allows the trader to be confident that his risk is as controlled as possible.
The script is easy to use and set up, this guide will help you if you have any difficulies or questions.
PART 2 - HOW TO USE THE SCRIPT
- SET THE CAPITAL SETTINGS
1 - Set your capital value in $
- SET THE TRADE SETTINGS
2 - Set your trade side (BUY or SELL)
3 - Set you desired risk in % of your capital
- ENTRY SETTINGS
4 - Set your entry from 2 different options
|MARKET| (default option)
This option will place the entry level at the last available price
|LIMIT|
This option allows you to input a fixed price level for the entry
- STOP LOSS SETTINGS
5 - Select your stop loss placement from 4 different options
|EXTREMA STOP LOSS| (default option)
This option will place the stop loss at the highest/lowest (extrema) price level within the last N candles
|ATR EXTREMA|
This option uses the same price level as the EXTREMA STOP LOSS but will add/soustract the last ATR value (calculated on the N last candles) multiplied by a coefficient that you input
|TICKS EXTREMA|
This option uses the same price level as the EXTREMA STOP LOSS but will add/soustract a number of ticks that you input
|PRICE LEVEL|
This option allows you to input a fixed price level for the stop loss
- TAKE PROFIT SETTINGS
6 - Select your take profit from 3 different options
|NONE| (default option)
This option will not display any take profit level, I have added this option as I don't have take profit targets
|RR|
This option uses a risk to reward ratio (reward/risk) that you input, it will automatically calculate the take profit level that corresponds
|PRICE LEVEL|
This option allows you to input a fixed price level for the take profit
- QUANTITY AND FEE SETTINGS
7 - Set the quantity settings, it represents the quantity in a lot (usually 100 000 in forex, 100 in stocks 1 for crypto currencies)
8 - Set the fee per quantity (turning lot)
- VISUAL SETTINGS
9 - Show or remove the tab
- TAB SETTINGS
10 - Select the data that you want to display in the tab (the tab will adapt automatically)
NOTES:
The vertical dashed line shows what candle has been used for the calculation of the stop loss, it allows you to visualize what candle the script has selected in case of an EXTREMA stop loss option.
I hope this helps you out! Any suggestions are welcome and I hope that the guide is clear enough.
Happy trading!
Position Sizing CalculatorThis script calculates the position size base on the stop loss price, entry price, and the percent of equity willing to risk.
Formula:
(Asset Quantity) = (Amount Risk at Trade) / (Price Difference Between Entry Price and Stop Loss)
or
Position size = (% Equity at Risk) * (Equity) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss Price)

The reason I published this script is because all other position size calculator scripts try to provide way too much when it should be much simpler, position in strange areas of the chart and leave unwanted chart pollution.
This is a bare-bones functional table that takes your risk level, entry, stop and take profit as inputs, and calculates your loss, profit and required position size for your chosen risk level as a result.
Inspired by a table type position size calculator made by DojiEmoji design/color-wise. Functionally different however.
I hope you find this script useful and include it on your trading journey.
Regression Channel Alternative MTF█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays 3 timeframes of parallel channel using linear regression calculation to assist manual drawing of chart patterns.
This indicator is not true Multi Timeframe (MTF) but considered as Alternative MTF which calculate 100 bars for Primary MTF, can be refer from provided line helper.
The timeframe scenarios are defined based on Position, Swing and Intraday Trader.
█ INSPIRATIONS
These timeframe scenarios are defined based on Harmonic Trading : Volume Three written by Scott M Carney.
By applying channel on each timeframe, MW or ABCD patterns can be easily identified manually.
This can also be applied on other chart patterns.
█ CREDITS
Scott M Carney, Harmonic Trading : Volume Three (Reaction vs. Reversal)
█ TIMEFRAME EXPLAINED
Higher / Distal : The (next) longer or larger comparative timeframe after primary pattern has been identified.
Primary / Clear : Timeframe that possess the clearest pattern structure.
Lower / Proximate : The (next) shorter timeframe after primary pattern has been identified.
Lowest : Check primary timeframe as main reference.
█ EXAMPLE OF USAGE / EXPLAINATION
Cipher Twister - Long and ShortINTRO / NOTES:
This script is based on Market Cipher B Oscillator by Falcon
The difference in this script is that only the useful points are printed on the indicator, namely Long and Short Trade Execution signals to be used by a bot, namely the PT Bot.
The script also differs from the original that it has been upgraded to Pinescript v4
This oscillator can be used with ALL time frames, but generally works the best on 15 minute and 1 hour charts on ANY market, no matter, stock, forex, crypto, spot, futures, derivatives, Nasdaq etc...
DEFINITIONS:
This oscillator forms the foundation of Buy and Exit of Long and Short Trades.
There are 2 'Red' Lines at the top of the channel and 2 Green Lines at the bottom of the channel.
These two channels are set at default to be +53 / -53 and +60 / -60 respectively. These two lines will serve as the threshold point if one is to make cautious trades only.
There is a center line which divides the Oscillator into two parts. Above the center line, the market is in over bought territory and Below the center line is in over sold territory.
'Red' dots are drawn by the indicator to represent a potential Short (or a signal to exit from a Long position)
'Green' dots are drawn by the indicator to represent a potential Long (or a signal to exit from a Short position)
The 'Red' and 'Green' dots are draw when a Cross between both wt1 & wt2 cross, thus providing a fantastic indication of potential trend reversal and entry/exit of a position.
STRATEGY NOTES:
The strategy to use this indicator with for realistic and proper results would be to use it with an automated Trading Bot such as Profit Trailer (PT-BOT)
You could use this strategy manually, however it would mean you would need to sit in front of the screen all day and night long and activate the trades immediately after the 'red'/'green' dots are drawn. Usually this will result in non-optimal entries and exits as well as loss on various instances when a 'red' and 'green' dot are printed close together (which is usually when the market goes into correction/consolidation) and slow entries/exits will result in a loss rather than a small profit or exit at BE (Break Even)
ACTUAL STRATEGY (For use with automated bot)
To be used in conjunction with Heikin Ashi Candles for added cautionary measures
For LONGs ONLY
--------------------
1/ When 'Green' dot is drawn, ACTIVATE Long Position
(Use 1.5% Risk Management for each trade)
(Use Lot size based on 1.5% risk management and xLeverage (if any))
2/ Make sure bot Opens an SL (Stop Loss) value based on 1.5% Risk Management
3/ When 'Red' dot is drawn, CLOSE Long Position.
*If you want to add extra caution to your trade, only activate the trade if the 'Green' dot is BELOW the 'Green' Markers
*For added caution, use color coded Heikin Ashi candles to 'confirm' Activation and Closing of a trade in the bot configuration
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For SHORTs ONLY
--------------------
1/ When 'Red' dot is drawn, ACTIVATE Short Position
(Use 1.5% Risk Management for each trade)
(Use Lot size based on 1.5% risk management and xLeverage (if any))
2/ Make sure bot Opens an SL (Stop Loss) value based on 1.5% Risk Management
3/ When 'Green' dot is drawn, CLOSE Short Position
*If you want to add extra caution to your trade, only activate the trade if the 'Red' dot is Above the Red Markers
*For added caution, use color coded Heikin Ashi candles to 'confirm' Activation and Closing of a trade in the bot configuration
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Supplementary Notes:
Make sure that your bot configuration will only activate ONE TRADE when the 'Green'/'Red' dot appears.
Occasionally during high volatility , 'red'/'green' dots will appear intermittently before remaining drawn, thus the oscillator 'redraws' the dots during market movement.
There will be times where occasionally a 'green' dot or a 'red' dot will appear, the trade will be opened, but the trade will fail due to the market manipulation (algorithm/market maker bots/fake volume etc), to wipe out those trading on derivatives and futures markets using leverage. Do not worry about this, no bot can make 100% wins, no strategy will achieve 100% win ratio and one necessarily doesn't need a high win ratio when using strict money management practices with your trading for SL and lot size.
If you use this method, you will see great results, but again I must stress, using this method with a fully automated bot is the only way to achieve proper results.
crypto Position Size CalculatorCrypto Position Size Calculator
this indicator helps you to figure out the position size your trade . and its only used for crypto
the indicator needs to fill the input section in order to give you the information table that includes position size .
The input section consists two section the first section you will give the trade info like entry , stop loss and take profit .
