Luxy Flexible Moving AveragesUltra-lightweight moving average suite supporting six calculation methods (EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA, HMA).
Overview
Luxy Flexible Moving Averages is a performance-optimized indicator designed for traders who need clean, reliable moving average lines without the overhead of complex calculations or unnecessary features. This indicator prioritizes speed and visual clarity, making it ideal for traders who run multiple indicators simultaneously or work on lower-powered devices.
Unlike traditional moving average indicators that calculate all lines regardless of whether they are enabled, Luxy only processes the moving averages you actually need, resulting in near-instantaneous chart loading times.
What Makes This Different
The primary design philosophy behind Luxy Flexible Moving Averages is efficiency without compromise. The indicator includes four independently configurable moving average lines, each supporting six different calculation methods. Every calculation is conditionally executed, meaning that disabled lines consume zero processing power. This approach delivers exceptional performance even when paired with resource-intensive indicators like volume profiles, market structure tools, or custom scanners.
Features
The indicator provides four distinct moving average lines, each fully customizable:
Fast MA is typically used for short-term momentum and quick directional changes. Traders often configure this as an EMA with lengths between 5 and 20 bars, depending on their trading timeframe.
Medium MA serves as a middle-ground reference, often used to identify the intermediate trend or as a dynamic support and resistance level. This line commonly uses EMA or SMA calculations with lengths between 10 and 50bars.
Medium-Long MA acts as a visual bridge between short-term noise and long-term structure. Many traders disable this line entirely if they prefer a cleaner chart, but it can be useful for identifying larger trend phases. Typical configurations use SMA or RMA with lengths between 50 and one 150 bars.
Long MA represents the dominant trend or bias. This is often configured as a 200 period SMA, which is a widely-watched level across most markets and timeframes. Alternatively, traders may use RMA for a smoother visual appearance.
Each line supports six calculation methods:
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) applies exponentially decreasing weights to older prices, making it highly responsive to recent price action. This is the preferred method for momentum-based strategies and short-term trading.
SMA (Simple Moving Average ) treats all prices equally within the lookback period, resulting in a smoother line that is less reactive to sudden price spikes. This is commonly used for identifying long-term trends.
WMA (Weighted Moving Average) applies linearly decreasing weights, offering a middle ground between EMA and SMA. It responds faster than SMA but with less sensitivity than EMA.
VWMA (Volume-Weighted Moving Average) incorporates volume data into the calculation, giving more weight to bars with higher trading activity. This method is particularly useful in liquid markets where volume represents genuine participation.
RMA (Relative Moving Average, also known as Wilder's Smoothing) is a variant of EMA with a slower response curve. It is commonly used in oscillators like RSI and ADX, and provides very smooth trend lines on charts.
HMA (Hull Moving Average) is designed to reduce lag while maintaining smoothness. It is the most responsive option available in this indicator but can produce more false signals during choppy or sideways markets.
How It Works
The indicator operates on a conditional calculation model. When you load the indicator, it checks which moving average lines are enabled via the input settings. Only the enabled lines are calculated on each bar, and disabled lines are assigned a not-applicable value, preventing any processing overhead.
Each moving average is calculated using native TradingView functions, ensuring maximum compatibility and reliability across all asset classes and timeframes. The indicator does not use any security calls, loops, or external data requests, which are common sources of performance degradation in more complex indicators.
Recommended Configurations
The optimal moving average configuration depends on your trading style and timeframe. Below are general guidelines based on common trading approaches.
Scalping (1 minute to 5 minute charts)
Scalpers require fast-reacting moving averages that can identify micro-trends and momentum shifts within seconds. The recommended configuration prioritizes EMA or HMA for all lines, with very short lengths to capture quick moves.
For the Fast MA, use EMA with a length between 5 and 8. This line should react almost immediately to price changes and helps confirm entry timing during breakouts or pullbacks.
For the Medium MA , use EMA with a length between 10 and 15. This serves as your primary directional filter. When price is above this line, you look for long opportunities. When below, you look for shorts.
The Medium-Long MA is often disabled in scalping setups to reduce visual noise. If used, configure it as SMA between 40 and 80 to provide context on the broader 5-minute or 15-minute trend.
The Long MA can be set to SMA with a length between 100 and 150, or simply disabled. On very short timeframes, this line often provides more historical context than real-time utility.
Day Trading (5 minute to 1 hour charts)
Day traders benefit from a balanced approach that filters out noise while remaining responsive to intraday volatility. A common configuration combines EMA for short-term lines and SMA for long-term structure.
For the Fast MA , use EMA with a length between 8 and 12. This captures momentum without overreacting to every minor price swing.
For the Medium MA , use EMA with a length between 12 and 21. This is often used as a dynamic support or resistance level during trending sessions.
For the Medium-Long MA , configure SMA or RMA between 60 and one 120. This line helps identify whether the intraday trend aligns with the broader daily bias.
The Long MA is typically set to SMA with a length of 200. This is a critical level that many institutional traders watch, and price reactions around this line are often significant.
Swing Trading (4 hour to daily charts)
Swing traders operate on longer timeframes and need moving averages that filter out daily noise while highlighting multi-day or multi-week trends. SMA and RMA are commonly preferred for their smoothness, though EMA can be used for faster momentum entries.
For the Fast MA , use EMA or SMA with a length between 10 and 20. This line helps time entries during pullbacks within the larger trend.
For the Medium MA , use EMA or SMA with a length between 20 and 34. This often serves as a key decision point for whether a pullback is likely to reverse or continue.
For the Medium-Long MA , configure SMA between 100 and 180. This provides visual context on the broader weekly trend and can act as a significant support or resistance zone.
The Long MA should be SMA with a length of 200 or higher. On daily charts, the two-hundred-day moving average is one of the most widely-referenced indicators in global markets, and price behavior around this level is often predictable.
Using Moving Averages for Trend Identification
Moving averages are primarily used to determine trend direction and strength. The relationship between price and the moving average lines provides insight into market structure.
When price is trading above a moving average, the trend is generally considered bullish on that timeframe. When price is below, the trend is bearish. The steeper the slope of the moving average, the stronger the trend. A flat moving average indicates consolidation or a potential trend change.
Crossovers between moving averages are commonly used as trend confirmation signals. When a faster moving average crosses above a slower moving average, this suggests increasing bullish momentum. When the faster line crosses below, it suggests increasing bearish momentum. However, crossovers should not be used in isolation, as they can produce false signals during sideways markets.
Many traders use moving averages as dynamic support and resistance levels. During uptrends, price often pulls back to a key moving average before resuming higher. During downtrends, price often rallies to a moving average before resuming lower. These levels can be used to plan entries, exits, or stop-loss placement.

Trend MACD [JopAlgo]Trend MACD — momentum made obvious (4-state histogram)
What it does (one line):
A clean MACD histogram using EMA(fast) − EMA(slow) with a signal line. The columns change color to show trend side and momentum change at a glance.
Green = above 0 and rising → positive trend, momentum building
White (upside) = above 0 but fading → still positive, momentum cooling
White (downside) = below 0 but improving → still negative, momentum recovering
Red = below 0 and falling → negative trend, momentum building down
Zero line = the bull/bear divider. Distance from zero = thrust. Color change = momentum shift.
What you’ll see
Dashed zero line for the trend divider
Column histogram with the 4-state color logic above
No clutter—just momentum and regime, clean
Read it in 3 seconds: Which side of 0? Are bars getting bigger or smaller? Did the color flip?
How to use it (simple playbook)
Direction filter
Look for longs while histogram is ≥ 0.
Look for shorts while histogram is ≤ 0.
Timing
Green sequence (above 0, growing): join pullbacks at real levels.
White above 0: positive but cooling—buy pullbacks only at levels, don’t chase.
White below 0: negative but improving—prepare for reclaim trades at levels.
Red sequence: trend down—sell pops at levels.
Location first (always)
Use Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) and Anchored VWAP (session/weekly/event).
No level, no trade.
Quality check (optional, strong)
CVDv1 : execute when Alignment OK and no Absorption against your side.
RVOL (if you track it): prefer breakouts with RVOL above cutoff.
Entries, exits, risk (keep it tight)
Continuation long: price retests VAL / AVWAP / MA cluster in an up regime (≥ 0). Histogram stays ≥ 0 and turns green again → enter.
Stop: under structure. Targets: POC/HVNs or next swing.
Break + retest: breakout through a level while histogram flips from white→green above 0 (or white→red below 0 for shorts). Enter on the retest that holds.
Trim / avoid: when bars shrink toward 0 (white) into your target / HVN—momentum is cooling. Don’t chase fresh highs with white bars.
Settings that matter (how to tune)
Fast Length (default 25)
Shorter = quicker turns (more noise). Longer = steadier, slower.
Slow Length (default 200)
Big backbone. For intraday you might use 21/55 or 12/26; for swing the default 25/200 or 20/100 is solid.
Signal Smoothing (default 9)
Higher = smoother, fewer flips. Lower = more reactive.
Source
close is fine; if you use hlc3, expect slightly smoother behavior.
Suggested presets
Scalp (1–5m): 12 / 26 / 9
Intraday (15m–1H): 21 / 55 / 9
Swing (2H–4H): 25 / 100 or 25 / 200 / 9
Daily backdrop: 20 / 100 or 50 / 200 / 9 (execute on lower TF)
Pattern cheat sheet
Green staircase above 0 → trend leg; buy pullbacks to VP/AVWAP.
White above 0 → positive but tiring; avoid chasing; wait for retest.
Flip through 0 with expansion → regime change; use the first retest at a level.
Red staircase below 0 → trend down; sell pops at VP edges.
Diverging price vs shrinking bars → momentum thinning; tighten risk.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2: entries at VAH/VAL/LVNs, targets at POC/HVNs.
Anchored VWAP: reclaim/reject with matching histogram side is high-quality timing.
CVDv1: take MACD-aligned setups with flow (ALIGN OK, no Absorption).
RVOL: confirmation that the push has participation.
Common mistakes this helps you avoid
Longs with red momentum or shorts with green momentum.
Chasing new highs on white (cooling) bars.
Trading mid-range when histogram keeps whipsawing around 0 (do less; wait for level).

Rate of Change Indicator [JopAlgo] (ROCI)Rate of Change Indicator (ROCI) — see impulse early, skip the dead moves
What it is (one line):
ROCI tells you how fast price changed vs N bars ago , in percent. It’s a clean momentum gauge:
Above 0 → price is higher than N bars ago (bullish momentum).
Below 0 → price is lower than N bars ago (bearish momentum).
Further from 0 → stronger impulse.
The default +5 / −5 bands highlight strong thrust . Zero-line crosses flag momentum shifts.
What you’ll see
Blue line = ROCI.
Orange dotted line = 0 (bull/bear divider).
White dotted lines = ±Strong Momentum levels (default ±5).
Green/red panel tint when ROCI lives above +5 or below −5.
Read in 3 seconds: Which side of 0? How far? Growing or fading vs last bar?
How to use it (simple playbook)
Direction filter
Trade longs only while ROCI > 0.
Trade shorts only while ROCI < 0.
Timing
Breakouts: prefer breaks where ROCI pushes through +5/−5 and holds on the first retest.
Pullbacks in trend: in an uptrend, let ROCI dip toward 0 and then turn back up → entry. (Mirror for downtrends.)
Do less in chop
If ROCI whips around near 0, you’re in balance. Only act at objective levels.
Rule of thumb: Zero cross = heads-up. ±5 hold = go-with.
Entries, exits, risk (use this, keep it tight)
Continuation entry (trend):
Bias up at your level (e.g., VAL/AVWAP). ROCI stays > 0 and turns up from a shallow dip → enter long.
Stop: under structure/level. Targets: POC/HVNs or next swing.
Breakout entry:
Break through a level with ROCI > +5 (or < −5 for shorts). Enter on the retest that holds while ROCI remains outside the band.
Invalidation: quick fall back inside the band and under 0 → stand down.
Exit/trim:
On longs, repeated lower ROCI peaks into your target (momentum fading) → take profits or tighten.
Timeframe guide
1–5m (scalps) : ROC Period 10–20, Strong 6–10. Many signals; require level + confirmation.
15m–1H (intraday): ROC Period 14–34, Strong 4–7. Sweet spot.
2H–4H (swing): ROC Period 20–50, Strong 3–6. Cleaner legs, fewer flips.
1D+ (position): ROC Period 50–100, Strong 2–5. Use for backdrop; trigger on lower TF.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune)
ROC Period (default 32) : lookback for comparison.
Shorter = earlier signals, more noise.
Longer = steadier bias, slower turns.
Strong Momentum Threshold (default 5) : where you say “this is real thrust.”
Pick it by history: scroll back, mark thrusts that ran, and note their typical ROCI. Set the band slightly inside that value so you see the start of good moves.
Pattern cheatsheet
Impulse leg : ROCI above 0 making higher peaks → trend leg in progress.
Healthy pullback : ROCI dips toward 0 but doesn’t flip negative, then turns up → add/entry with trend.
Weak breakout / likely fail: Price pokes level but ROCI stays near 0 or rolls over quickly.
Divergence (lightweight): Price makes a higher high, ROCI peaks lower → momentum thinning; trail tight into HVNs.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2 : Use VAH/VAL/LVNs/POC for where. ROCI tells you if the break has juice.
Anchored VWAP : Reclaim/reject AVWAP with ROCI on the correct side of 0 for higher quality.
CVDv1 :
Yes: ROCI thrust + CVD Alignment OK + no Absorption → higher odds the move sticks.
No: ROCI thrust but Absorption red → don’t chase; wait for the fail/reclaim.
(Optional add: RVOL—high participation + strong ROCI is the A+ combo for breaks.)
Common mistakes this avoids
Buying a breakout while ROCI sits near 0 (no impulse).
Shorting a strong trend when ROCI is firmly > 0 (or > +5).
Treating every zero cross as a trade (it’s a heads-up, not an entry by itself).
Quick defaults to start
ROC Period: 32
Strong Threshold: 5
Process: Level → ROCI side/strength → (optionally) CVD quality → Execute with structure-based risk
Screenshots tip: show a level break where ROCI pushes through +5 and a pullback where ROCI turns up from ~0.

Multiple Moving Averages [JopAlgo]Multiple Moving Averages — read trend, timing, and strength at a glance
What it does:
Mark up to 5 moving averages (you pick type + length + color). Watch how they stack, slope, braid, and fan out to judge trend direction, pullback timing, and breakout quality on any timeframe.
Read it in 5 seconds
Stack order:
Bullish: fast MAs on top of slow MAs.
Bearish: fast MAs below slow MAs.
Slope: up = trend has a tailwind; down = headwind.
Spacing: wide = strong trend; tight/braided = balance/chop.
If you remember only one rule: trade with the stack and slope, enter at levels.
High-probability plays (simple and repeatable)
Trend pullback (with level)
Stack is bullish, slopes up.
Price pulls back to the MA cluster (or AVWAP/VAL), holds, fast MAs curl back up.
Long. Stop: below structure/slowest MA. Target: POC/HVNs or next swing.
(Mirror for shorts in a bearish stack.)
Reclaim + recurl
After a down phase, price closes above fast MAs (MA1–MA2), they turn up, and you’re at a real level (AVWAP/VA edge).
Take the first higher-low with the stack starting to flip.
Squeeze → expansion
MAs braid tight = energy building.
Break at a level, then the lines fan out in your direction.
Enter on the first retest that holds.
Skip trades when the lines are braided mid-range and you’re not at a level.
Timeframe guide (what usually works)
1–5m (scalps): EMA heavy (e.g., 5/9/21/34/55). Expect more signals; filter with levels + CVD.
15m–1H (intraday): 9/21/34/50/200 (mix EMA for fast, SMA for slow).
2H–4H (swing): 10/20/50/100/200 or 8/21/34/55/89 (smoother read).
1D+ (position): 20/50/100/200 (bias) and enter on lower TF.
Tip: Don’t set all five to the same length—stagger them so the stack tells a story.
Settings that matter (and what they mean)
MA types (pick the feel you like):
EMA – fastest response (great for timing).
SMA – smoother backbone (great for bias).
WMA / LWMA – responsive but less twitchy than EMA.
VWMA – weights price by volume (good on assets with uneven volume).
SMMA – very smooth (reduces whips).
DEMA – extra fast (can be noisy).
HEMA – in this script behaves like a double-EMA style response (fast).
RVIMA – not implemented here (will plot nothing if chosen).
Length:
Shorter = earlier turns, more noise.
Longer = slower, cleaner bias.
Keep a sensible spread (e.g., 1:2:3… or Fib-style 9/21/34/55/89).
Colors:
Use consistent colors (e.g., warm = fast, cool = slow) so you can read the stack instantly.
Best combos with other tools
Volume Profile v3.2: take signals at VAH/VAL/LVNs; use POC/HVNs for targets.
Anchored VWAP: reclaims/rejections + MA recurl = clean timing.
CVDv1: execute with flow (Alignment OK, strong Imbalance, no Absorption against you).
Common mistakes this prevents
Shorting into a bullish stack (or buying into a bearish one).
Chasing far from the fast MAs; better to wait for a pullback.
Trading every wiggle in chop—braids tell you to do less.
Quick FAQs
Cluttered chart? Hide 1–2 lines (keep fast, middle, slow) or thin the linewidth.
Which one is “right”? None. Pick a set that fits your tempo and stick to it.
RVIMA option? Not implemented in this version—choose another type.
Starter presets (copy these, then adjust)
Intraday: MA1 EMA9, MA2 EMA21, MA3 SMA34, MA4 SMA50, MA5 SMA200
Swing: MA1 EMA10, MA2 SMA20, MA3 SMA50, MA4 SMA100, MA5 SMA200
Scalp: MA1 EMA5, MA2 EMA9, MA3 EMA21, MA4 EMA34, MA5 EMA55

Multi MA Cross [JopAlgo]Multi MA Cross — simple, flexible trend + timing
What it does:
Plots two moving averages (you pick the types and lengths) and marks their crossovers. Use it to read trend direction and time pullbacks/breakouts. Works on any timeframe.
What you’ll see
Short MA (orange)
Long MA (lime)
Cross mark (aqua ✚) when they cross
Green/lime above orange = bullish bias (short MA above long).
Orange above lime = bearish bias.
How to use it (simple playbook)
Trade with the bias
Longs only when short MA > long MA.
Shorts only when short MA < long MA.
Enter at a real level
Use Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) or Anchored VWAP .
Crosses at or just after a level hold are higher quality.
Quality check (optional, strong)
CVDv1 : take trades when Alignment = OK, Imbalance strong, Absorption ≠ red.
Manage risk
Stop goes beyond the level/structure, not on an MA wiggle.
Trim into POC/HVNs or next structure.
Good entries you’ll recognize
Pullback-to-long MA (trend):
Bias up, price pulls to long MA (or AVWAP/VAL), short MA curls back up → enter long.
Reclaim + cross:
Price reclaims AVWAP/VA edge, then short MA crosses over long → confirmation to join.
Squeeze → break:
MAs converge (tight), then expand after a level break. Enter on retest that holds.
Skip crosses in the middle of nowhere. Cross + location + flow beats cross alone.
Timeframe guidance
1–5m (scalps): EMA/EMA or EMA/WMA. Expect more crosses. Use VP/AVWAP and CVD filters.
15m–1H (intraday): EMA(9) vs SMA(21) is a solid default.
2H–4H (swing): SMA(20–34) vs SMA(50) or EMA(21) vs EMA(55).
1D+ (position): SMA(50) vs SMA(200) for broad bias; entries on lower TF.
Settings that matter (and what they mean)
Short/Long MA Type:
EMA = fast, good for timing.
SMA = smooth, good for bias.
WMA/LWMA = in-between (responsive).
VWMA = weights by volume.
SMMA = very smooth (reduces whips).
HEMA/DEMA = extra responsive.
VWAP = daily session VWAP (anchor), ignores length in practice.
Short/Long Length:
Short = timing sensitivity.
Long = trend backbone.
Keep a ratio ~ 1:2 to 1:3 (e.g., 9/21, 10/30, 20/50).
Note on VWAP option: The script fetches a daily VWAP anchor. It acts like a fair-value line, not a rolling MA. Your Length won’t affect VWAP.
Filters that boost win rate
Slope check: Only take longs when both MAs slope up; shorts when both slope down.
Distance check: Don’t chase if price is far from the short MA; wait for a pullback.
HTF agreement: On 15m, glance at 1H/4H bias; on 4H, glance at 1D. Trade with the higher-TF wind.
Combos that work
Volume Profile v3.2: Use VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs for entries/targets. Cross at those references is meaningful.
Anchored VWAP: Reclaims/rejections first, MA cross second = cleaner timing.
CVDv1: Only act when flow agrees (ALIGN OK, no Absorption against you).
Common mistakes this avoids
Shorting into an up-bias (or vice versa).
Chasing a cross far from value (wait for the pullback).
Trading every cross in chop (use levels + CVD to filter).
Defaults to start with
Short MA: EMA 9
Long MA: SMA 21
Timeframes: 15m–4H
Process: Bias → Level → Cross/Retest → CVD check → Execute

FRAMA Channel [JopAlgo]FRAMA Channel — let the market tell you how fast to move
Most moving averages make you pick a speed and hope it fits every regime. FRAMA (Fractal Adaptive Moving Average, popularized by John Ehlers) does the opposite: it adapts its smoothing to market structure. When price action is “trendy” (more directional, less jagged), FRAMA speeds up; when it’s choppy (more fractal noise), FRAMA slows down and filters the rubble.
FRAMA Channel wraps that adaptive core with a volatility channel and clean color logic so you can read trend, mean-reversion windows, and breakouts in one glance—on any timeframe.
What you’re seeing (plain-English tour)
FRAMA midline (Filt): the adaptive average. It’s computed from a fractal dimension of price over Length (N).
Trendy tape → lower fractal dimension → FRAMA tracks price tighter.
Choppy tape → higher fractal dimension → FRAMA smooths harder.
Channel bands (Filt ± distance × volatility): the “breathing room.” Volatility here is a long lookback average of (high − low).
Upper band = potential resistance in down/neutral or trend-walk path in uptrends.
Lower band = mirror logic for shorts.
Color logic (simple and strict):
Green when price breaks above the upper band → bullish regime (momentum present).
Red when price breaks below the lower band → bearish regime.
White when price crosses the FRAMA midline → neutral/reset.
Optional candle coloring: toggle Color Candles to tint the chart itself with the regime color—handy for quick reads.
(When you add screenshots: image #1 should label FRAMA, bands, and the three colors in a small trend + pullback. Image #2 can show a “squeeze → expansion” sequence: channel tightens, then price breaks and walks the band.)
How it’s built (without the jargon)
The script measures three ranges over your Length (N): two half-windows and the full window.
It converts those into a fractal dimension (Dimen). That number says “how zig-zaggy” price is right now.
It turns Dimen into an alpha (smoothing factor): alpha = exp(−4.6 × (Dimen − 1)), clamped so it never explodes or flatlines.
It updates FRAMA each bar using that alpha.
It builds bands using a long average of (high − low) multiplied by your Bands Distance setting.
It changes color only on confirmed bar events:
hlc3 crosses above the upper band → green
hlc3 crosses below the lower band → red
close crosses the midline → white
Result: a channel that tightens in balance, widens in trend, and doesn’t flicker on partial bars.
How to use FRAMA Channel on any timeframe
Same framework everywhere. Your job is to choose where to act (objective levels) and let FRAMA tell you trend/mean-reversion context and breakout quality.
Scalping (1–5m)
Pullback-to-midline (trend): When color is green, buy pullbacks that hold at/above the midline; when red, short pullbacks that fail at/below it.
Invalidation: a white flip (midline cross back) right after entry → tighten or bail.
Squeeze → break: A narrowing channel often precedes a move. Only chase the break if color flips to green/red and the first pullback holds the band/midline.
Intraday (15m–1H)
Trend rides: In green/red, expect price to walk the outer band. Entries on midline kisses are cleaner than chasing the band itself.
Balance fades: In white (neutral) with a tight channel, fade outer band → midline—but only at a real level (see “Pairing” below).
Swing (2H–4H)
Regime compass: Color changes that stick (several bars) often mark swing regime shifts. Combine with Weekly/Event AVWAP and composite VP levels.
Add/Trim: In an uptrend, add on midline holds; trim as the channel widens and price spikes beyond the upper band into HVNs.
Position (1D–1W)
Context first: A persistent green weekly channel is constructive; a persistent red is distributive.
Patience: Wait for midline retests at higher-TF levels rather than chasing outer-band prints.
Entries, exits, and risk (keep it simple)
Continuation entry (trend):
Color already green/red.
Price pulls back to FRAMA midline (or shallowly toward it) and holds.
Take the trend side.
Stop: beyond the opposite side of the midline or behind local structure.
Targets: your Volume Profile HVN/POC or prior swing, not the band alone.
Breakout entry:
Channel had tightened; price breaks a key level.
Color flips green/red and the first retest holds.
Enter with the break.
Avoid: breaks that flip color but immediately white-flip on the next bar.
Mean-reversion entry (balance):
Color white and channel tight.
At a VP edge (VAL/VAH), fade outer band → midline.
Stop: just outside the band; Exit: at midline/POC.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune them)
Length (N) — default 26
Controls how FRAMA “reads” structure.
Shorter (14–20): faster, more responsive (good for scalps/intraday), more flips in chop.
Longer (30–40): steadier (good for swings/position), slower to acknowledge new trends.
Bands Distance — default 1.5
Scales the channel width.
If you’re constantly tagging bands, increase slightly (1.7–2.0).
If nothing ever reaches the band, decrease (1.2–1.4) to make context meaningful.
Color Candles — on/off
Great for quick regime reads. If your chart feels too busy, leave bands colored and turn candle coloring off.
Warm-up note: FRAMA references N bars. Right after switching timeframes or symbols, give it N–2N bars to settle before you judge the current state.
(You may see an input named “Signals Data” in this version; it’s reserved for future enhancements.)
What to look for (pattern cheat sheet)
Walk-the-band: After a green/red flip, price hugs the outer band while the midline slopes. Ride pullbacks to the midline, don’t fade the band.
Squeeze → Expansion: Channel pinches, then color flips and bands widen—that’s the move. The first midline retest is your best entry.
False break tell: Brief color flip to green/red that immediately reverts to white on the next bar—skip chasing; plan for a reclaim.
Midline reclaims: In chop, repeated white↔green/white↔red flips say “mean reversion”; stay tactical and target the midline/POC.
Pairing FRAMA Channel with other tools
Cumulative Volume Delta v1 (CVDv1):
FRAMA tells you trend/mean-reversion context; CVDv1 tells you flow quality.
Breakout quality: FRAMA flips green and CVDv1 ALIGN = OK, Imbalance strong, Absorption ≠ red → higher odds the break sticks.
If Absorption is red on a FRAMA green flip, do not chase—wait for retest or look for a fail/reclaim.
Volume Profile v3.2:
Use VAH/VAL/LVNs/POC for where.
Green + VAL retest → rotate toward POC/HVN.
Red + VAH rejection → rotate back to POC.
LVN + green flip → expect fast travel toward the next HVN; set targets there.
Anchored VWAP :
Treat AVWAP as fair-value rails.
AVWAP reclaim + FRAMA green → excellent trend-resume entry.
AVWAP rejection + FRAMA red → high-quality short; use midline as your risk guide.
Common pitfalls this helps you avoid
Chasing every poke: FRAMA’s white → green/red state change helps you wait for confirmation (or a retest) instead of reacting to the first wick.
Fading a real trend: A sloped midline with price walking the band is telling you not to fight it.
Stops too tight: In expansion, give the trade room to the midline or local structure, not just inside the channel.
Practical defaults to start with
Length: 26
Bands Distance: 1.5
Color Candles: on (turn off if your chart is busy)
Timeframes: works out of the box on 15m–4H; for 1–5m try Length=20; for daily swings try Length=34–40.

Elliott Wave Oscillator [JopAlgo]Elliott Wave Oscillator — a simple impulse meter that tells you when the move has “real push”
If price is the story, impulse is the emotion behind each chapter. The Elliott Wave Oscillator (EWO) is a clean way to see that emotion: it’s just the difference between a fast and a slow moving average. When the fast MA pulls away from the slow MA, the histogram grows; when they come back together, it shrinks. Above zero = bullish impulse; below zero = bearish impulse.
EWO keeps the math honest and the read effortless:
Choose SMA, EMA, or a volume-weighted average for each side (the “VWAP” option here uses a rolling VWMA over the chosen length).
A zero line anchors the read (bull vs bear).
Bars color by slope: rising = building momentum, falling = momentum fading.
(For screenshots: image #1 label the zero line, rising/falling bars, and a zero cross. Image #2 show a strong impulse leg hugging one side of zero, then fading into a pullback.)
What you’re seeing (and how it’s built)
Short MA (default 5) and Long MA (default 35) are computed using your selected MA Type (SMA, EMA, or rolling volume-weighted).
EWO = Short MA − Long MA.
EWO > 0: fast MA above slow → bullish impulse.
EWO < 0: fast MA below slow → bearish impulse.
Histogram colors:
Green bar: EWO increasing vs previous bar (momentum building).
Red bar: EWO decreasing (momentum waning).
Alerts: fire when EWO crosses the zero line (bullish or bearish “trend shift” heads-up).
New to this? Think of EWO as a throttle: above zero the engine is pushing forward; below zero it’s pushing backward. The height shows how hard it’s pushing; the color shows if that push is growing or fading right now.
How to use EWO on any timeframe
Same framework everywhere—what changes is your location and targets (from your other tools).
Scalping (1–5m)
Breakout confirmation: Only chase a micro-break if EWO flips above zero and grows green as price leaves a level (VAL/LVN/AVWAP). If it flips then immediately shrinks red, that’s your “don’t chase” warning.
Pullback timing: In a quick trend, wait for EWO to dip but stay above zero, then turn green again. That flip is often your pullback end.
Intraday (15m–1H)
Continuation filter: After a level break, ride as long as EWO stays on your side of zero. The first red bar while still above zero is a cue to partial or tighten stops.
Failed break tell: A poke through VAH/VAL with EWO still near zero (no expansion) is often a trap. Prefer retest/reclaim trades.
Swing (2H–4H)
Impulse leg ID: Strong trends show an EWO “bulge” (wide, mostly green bars above zero for longs). When that bulge shrinks back toward zero, look for mean-reversion to AVWAP/POC before the next leg.
Divergence (lightweight): Price makes a higher high, but EWO tops at a lower peak → impulse is weaker; plan for retrace to value.
Position (1D–1W)
Regime bias: Weeks where EWO lives above zero are net constructive; below zero are net distributive. Use that as a backdrop for adds/reductions at your higher-TF levels (Weekly AVWAP, composite VAL/VAH).
Entries, exits, and risk (simple rules)
Entry: At your level (from VP/AVWAP), take the side where EWO is on the correct side of zero and turning green (for longs) or red→green below zero for shorts? Careful—below zero, red means waning bear impulse. For shorts, you want EWO < 0 and increasing in magnitude (i.e., more negative) which still paints red in this script? Here’s the practical translation:
Longs: EWO > 0 and rising (green bar).
Shorts: EWO < 0 and falling (more negative vs prior bar). In this script, that also paints red—which is correct for building bearish impulse.
Manage: If your long was driven by EWO above zero, consider reducing when bars turn red repeatedly or EWO rolls back toward zero at your target node.
Invalidation: A zero cross against you after entry is a hard warning—tighten or exit unless higher-TF context strongly favors holding.
Stops: Place beyond the price level/structure you used, not on an EWO flip alone.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune them)
MA Type (SMA / EMA / VWAP):
EMA: most responsive; great for scalping/fast intraday.
SMA: smoother; better for swings where you want fewer false wiggles.
VWAP (rolling VWMA): weights price by volume over your length—nice on pairs where volume behavior matters. (Note: this is a rolling VWMA, not an anchored session VWAP.)
Short/Long Lengths (default 5/35):
Shorter/faster (e.g., 4/20) → earlier flips, more noise.
Longer/slower (e.g., 8/50) → fewer but stronger signals.
Keep the ratio—something like 1:4 to 1:6—so the “bulge” is meaningful.
Zero-cross alerts: leave them on but treat as heads-up, not entries in isolation. You still want location + flow.
What to look for (pattern cheatsheet)
Impulse bulge: Wide, consecutive bars above zero (mostly green) → trend leg in progress. Expect shallow pullbacks only.
Pullback reset: After a leg, EWO shrinks but stays above zero, then flips green again → pullback likely done.
No-juice breakout: Price pokes the level but EWO stays near zero / flips red quickly → skip the chase; look for reclaim setups.
Divergence at extremes: New price high with lower EWO peak → risk of fade to value (POC/AVWAP).
Combining EWO with other tools
Cumulative Volume Delta v1 (CVDv1):
Use EWO for impulse, CVDv1 for quality. Best trades line up as:
EWO > 0 and increasing + CVDv1 ALIGN = OK + Imbalance strong + Absorption ≠ red → take the breakout/retest.
If EWO says “go” but CVDv1 flags Absorption, don’t chase.
Volume Profile v3.2:
Use VAH/VAL/LVNs/POC as where. EWO tells you if the push has fuel to leave/enter value.
Example: VAL retest with EWO turning up → rotate to POC/HVN.
Anchored VWAP:
Reclaims are higher quality when EWO flips above zero on the reclaim bar and holds green on the first pullback.
(Optional mention in screenshots: show a VAH break where EWO bulges and CVDv1 shows Alignment OK—clean continuation.)
Common pitfalls EWO helps you avoid
Buying a break with no impulse: Zero-line hugs and shrinking bars tell you the fast MA isn’t pulling away—skip.
Fading a real leg: Wide, persistent bars on one side of zero = don’t fight; use pullbacks to value instead.
Confusing volume-weighted vs anchored VWAP: The “VWAP” choice here is a rolling VWMA over the lookback, not a session/event AVWAP. Use Anchored VWAP when you need the true event-anchored line.
Practical defaults to start with
MA Type: EMA
Short/Long: 5 / 35
Timeframes: works out of the box on 15m–4H; for 1–5m try 4/20; for daily swings try 8/50.
Keep zero-cross alerts on as an attention ping; still require location + flow.
Alerts (what they mean)
Bullish EWO Signal: EWO crossed above zero → bullish impulse engaged. Look for a retest at your level with CVDv1 quality before entry.
Bearish EWO Signal: EWO crossed below zero → bearish impulse.

Cycle Momentum Filter [JopAlgo]Cycle Momentum Filter (CMF) — spot “when” to engage the market, on any timeframe
Markets breathe in cycles (expansion → contraction) while momentum and trend decide which moves actually travel. CMF is a compact filter that blends those ideas so you can answer two questions before you click:
Is this a good moment to take a trade? (cycle position)
If I take it, is there enough force behind the move to carry it? (momentum + trend)
CMF does not replace your levels—use it with your location tools (e.g., Volume Profile v3.2 and Anchored VWAP). It simply keeps you out of entries taken at the wrong part of the swing or against weak momentum.
(When you add screenshots: image #1 should label each sub-line and the green/yellow/red background; image #2 can show CMF turning green at VAL + AVWAP before a rotation back to POC.)
What you’re seeing (and how to read it at a glance)
CMF draws five sub-lines around a zero line, plus a background color:
Cycle Oscillator (blue): where you are in the swing. Above zero ≈ cycle crest side; below zero ≈ trough side.
ROC % (purple): short-term price acceleration. Above zero = positive momentum; below zero = negative.
MACD Histogram (orange): classic impulse measure (fast–slow EMA gap). Above zero = bullish impulse.
EWO (cyan): Elliott Wave Oscillator (EMA fast – EMA slow). Above zero = trend tilt up.
RSI-MA (gray, plotted as RSI−50): smoothed RSI relative to 50. Above zero = buyers have the relative strength.
Background color = the filter result:
Green → bullish window: cycle favors longs and momentum/trend/RS confirm.
Red → bearish window: mirror logic.
Yellow → neutral: at least one piece disagrees—do less, or wait for alignment.
For new traders: Every sub-line crossing above/below zero is a yes/no vote. Green happens only when all bullish checks are true; red when all bearish checks are true.
How CMF is built (plain-English version)
Cycle (DPO-style): CMF subtracts a displaced SMA from price to remove trend and expose the swing. Below 0 = you’re on the dip side of the cycle; above 0 = rally side.
Momentum (ROC): percent change over roc_length bars; tells you if price is actually accelerating.
Impulse (MACD hist): measures push from fast vs slow EMAs.
Trend tilt (EWO): broader drift via two EMAs (fast/slow).
Participation bias (RSI-MA): smoothed RSI relative to 50 (plotted as RSI−50 so its zero line matches the others).
The signal rules are strict AND conditions:
Bullish = cycle < 0 and ROC > 0 and MACD hist > 0 and EWO > 0 and RSI-MA > 0.
Bearish = cycle > 0 and ROC < 0 and MACD hist < 0 and EWO < 0 and RSI-MA < 0.
Otherwise Neutral.
This strictness is deliberate: it cuts a lot of low-quality entries.
Using CMF on any timeframe
The framework is the same—only your anchors/targets change as you zoom.
Scalping (1–5m)
Where: VP v3.2 VAL/VAH/LVNs or Session AVWAP.
When: take longs when CMF turns green on/after a dip to your level; shorts when it turns red on/after a pop into resistance.
Skip: yellow reads in the middle of the range; that’s chop.
Tip: on very fast pairs, require two consecutive green/red bars before entry.
Intraday (15m–1H)
Use CMF green to time pullbacks to AVWAP or VA edges in the trend direction.
In balance days, wait for CMF color + level alignment to fade back to POC.
If CMF flips yellow after entry, tighten risk; if it flips against you, consider exiting early.
Swing (2H–4H)
Treat first green after a higher-timeframe pullback to Weekly AVWAP or composite VAL as your A-setup.
If CMF stays green through the first pullback, consider adding; the opposite for red in downtrends.
Position (1D–1W)
Fewer, bigger decisions: CMF green at Monthly/Quarterly AVWAP or at composite VAL suggests rotation toward POC/HVNs; CMF red at VAH suggests mean-reversion lower.
If CMF can’t turn green/red at key retests, that’s valuable: the level likely won’t hold.
Entries, exits, and risk (simple rules)
Entry: trade at a level when CMF just flips to your side (green for longs / red for shorts).
Invalidation: if CMF reverts to yellow immediately, it’s a warning; if it flips to the opposite color, that’s your soft stop condition—tighten or exit unless higher-timeframe context argues otherwise.
Targets: use Volume Profile v3.2 (POC/HVNs) and AVWAP (mean) for logical destinations.
Don’t use CMF alone for stops; place them beyond the level or structure.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune them)
Cycle Length (default 20): swing detection.
Shorter (10–14): quicker flips, better for scalps.
Longer (30–40): steadier cycle for swings/position.
ROC Length (default 10): momentum lookback.
Shorter: earlier yes/no, more noise.
Longer: slower, more selective.
MACD Fast/Slow (5/13) & EWO Fast/Slow (5/35): impulse and drift.
Increase slow values to calm false flips; decrease fast to react sooner.
RSI Length (14) & Smoothing (5): participation tilt.
Reduce smoothing for faster confirmation; increase to avoid whips.
Background on/off: keep it on while learning; once you’re comfortable, you can hide the background and read the lines against zero.
Tuning tip: If you trade only a few coins, optimize Cycle and ROC first; leave MACD/EWO defaults. Then decide how strict you want RSI (try RSI smoothing = 3 for faster reads).
What to look for (pattern cheatsheet)
Green at a dip-level (VAL/AVWAP) → rotate toward POC/HVN.
Red at a pop-level (VAH/AVWAP) → rotate down toward POC/HVN.
Color holds through the retest → continuation is more likely.
Color flips against the breakout → watch for failed break and reclaim.
Only one line disagrees (e.g., ROC < 0 while others > 0) → expect slower follow-through; consider waiting one bar.
Combining CMF with other tools
Volume Profile v3.2 :
Use VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs for where. CMF answers when.
Green at VAL → mean-reversion long to POC.
Red at VAH → fade to POC.
LVN breaks with green often travel quickly to the next HVN.
Anchored VWAP :
Reclaim of AVWAP + CMF turns green → higher-quality long; rejection + red → cleaner short.
Weekly AVWAP + CMF color is a reliable swing compass.
Cumulative Volume Delta v1 (CVDv1):
CMF says “now”, CVDv1 says “how good”.
Prefer CMF green when CVDv1 Alignment = OK, Imbalance strong, Absorption ≠ red.
If CMF flips green but CVDv1 shows Absorption (red), do not chase; look for a reclaim instead.
Common pitfalls CMF helps you avoid
Buying high in the cycle: CMF keeps longs to when the cycle is on the dip side and momentum/trend agree.
Forcing trades on yellow: yellow is your do-less mode—wait for alignment.
Ignoring flow at levels: CMF gives the window, but quality still matters; confirm with CVDv1.
Practical defaults to start with
Cycle 20 | ROC 10 | MACD 5/13 | EWO 5/35 | RSI 14 (smooth 5)
Works out of the box on 15m–4H.
For scalps, try Cycle 14 / ROC 7–9 / RSI smooth 3.
For daily swings, Cycle 30–34 / ROC 12–14.
Alerts (what they tell you)
Bullish Signal: CMF turned green (all bullish checks passed). Use it as a heads-up; still anchor the entry to VP/AVWAP.
Bearish Signal: CMF turned red. Same rule: wait for the level.

Directional Indicator Crossovers [JopAlgo]Directional Indicator Crossovers — read trend intent at a glance, on any timeframe
Most traders ask two questions before they click: who’s in control right now and is control getting stronger or weaker?
The Directional Indicator (DI) answers the first one cleanly. +DI tracks upward directional movement; –DI tracks downward directional movement. When +DI crosses above –DI, buyers have the initiative; when –DI crosses above +DI, sellers do. DI Xover focuses on that simple, tradeable signal—the crossover—and keeps the pane uncluttered so you can layer it with your location/flow tools.
(If you add screenshots: image #1 can label +DI, –DI and a bullish crossover; image #2 can show a failed crossover in chop next to a successful one at a strong level.)
What you’re seeing (and how it’s built)
This indicator plots two lines in a separate pane:
+DI (green): smoothed positive directional movement.
–DI (red): smoothed negative directional movement.
Under the hood (length = 14 by default):
It measures how much today’s high exceeded yesterday’s high (up move) and how much today’s low fell below yesterday’s low (down move).
It keeps only the dominant side each bar (if up > down and up > 0 → up counts; vice-versa for down).
It normalizes by True Range (so moves are scaled by volatility) and smooths with RMA (so you don’t get jitter).
It raises alerts when +DI crosses above –DI (bullish) or –DI crosses above +DI (bearish).
How to read it, fast:
Cross up = buyers just took initiative.
Cross down = sellers just took initiative.
Wider distance between the lines = stronger control.
Lines braided/tight = balance/chop → expect more fake crosses.
DI is about directional control. It doesn’t tell you where to trade—that’s your location (e.g., Volume Profile, AVWAP). Use DI as a timing/confirmation layer, not as a standalone level generator.
Using DI Crossovers on any timeframe
The framework doesn’t change; only your expectations do as you zoom.
Scalping (1–5m)
Treat crossovers as triggers at levels. If price is tagging VAL/VAH/LVN (from Volume Profile v3.2) or Anchored VWAP, a fresh +DI cross up is your green light for a quick long; –DI cross up flips that logic for shorts.
Avoid taking every crossover mid-range—wait for location first.
In fast tape, require the lines to separate for 1–2 bars after the cross before you click.
Intraday (15m–1H)
In trend days, the first pullback into your level (POC/VA boundary/AVWAP) that prints a fresh +DI cross up is often the cleanest add/entry.
In balance days, fade DI crosses at edges back to POC—only if your flow tool isn’t screaming absorption against you.
Swing (2H–4H)
Look for confluence: at Weekly AVWAP or composite VAL/VAH, a DI crossover that stays separated for several bars is a solid momentum confirmation.
Failed crossover (lines recross quickly) near a level is a useful fail signal—expect a move back into value.
Position (1D–1W)
Use fewer, bigger signals: a weekly DI cross at Monthly/Quarterly AVWAP or at composite value edges marks a regime change.
Add on pullbacks when the controlling DI stays dominant (distance holds or widens).
Entries, exits, and risk (simple rules)
Entry (with level): wait for price to reach your level (e.g., VAL/VAH or AVWAP), then take the trade with the DI cross in that direction.
Filter: skip crosses when the two lines are braided (tiny separation) unless you’re trading a tight scalp with strict risk.
Exit / reduce: if your trade was based on a bullish cross, consider reducing when –DI recaptures +DI or the lines flatten at your target HVN/POC.
Stops: put them beyond the level (not just on a DI recross), but treat a fast recross as a warning to tighten.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune them)
DI Length (default 14):
Shorter (7–10) = faster signals, more noise (good for scalps with filters).
Longer (20–30) = fewer but stronger signals (good for swing/position).
If you often see flip-flops, lengthen the setting or take crosses only at VP/AVWAP levels.
Pro tip: Define a minimum separation rule for yourself (e.g., after a cross, require the gap between +DI and –DI to increase on the next bar). You don’t need extra code for this—just enforce it visually.
What to look for (pattern cheatsheet)
Cross + hold at a level: The lines cross at your level and keep separating → high-quality entry in that direction.
Sneaky fail: Cross, then immediate recross back → treat it as a fade signal back into value (especially near VAH/VAL).
Strength confirmation: After a breakout, +DI stays above –DI on pullbacks → trend is healthy; buy dips at AVWAP/POC.
Pre-move tell: DI lines unbraid and begin diverging before price leaves a range; wait for location + trigger.
Combining DI Xover with other tools
Cumulative Volume Delta v1 (CVDv1):
Use DI for direction, and CVDv1 for quality. A bullish DI cross with ALIGN OK + Imbalance strong + no Absorption is a far better long than DI alone.
If DI crosses up but CVDv1 flags Absorption (red), don’t chase—look for the fail/reclaim instead.
Volume Profile v3.2 :
Let VP choose the battleground (POC/VAH/VAL/LVNs). Take the DI crossover at those references.
Classic: bearish DI cross at VAH → fade toward POC; bullish DI cross at VAL → rotate to POC—assuming CVDv1 isn’t vetoing with Absorption.
Anchored VWAP :
Treat reclaims/rejections of AVWAP as the location and DI cross as the trigger.
Example: price reclaims Weekly AVWAP, then on the next pullback, a +DI cross up confirms the add.
Common pitfalls this helps you avoid
Trading crosses in the middle of nowhere. DI is a trigger, not a level; wait for VP/AVWAP.
Chasing every wiggle. When the lines are braided, you’re likely in balance—expect fake crosses.
Ignoring flow. A DI cross against CVDv1 Absorption is often a trap; quality > quantity.
Practical defaults to start with
Length: 14
Timeframes: Works out of the box on 15m–4H. For 1–5m scalps try 10–12; for daily/weekly swings try 20–30.
Process: Only act on crosses at levels (VP v3.2 / Anchored VWAP), and prefer those where CVDv1 says ALIGN OK and no Absorption.
Alerts (what they tell you)
Bullish DI Crossover: +DI crossed above –DI → buyers just took initiative. Look to your chart for location and CVDv1 quality before entering.
Bearish DI Crossover: –DI crossed above +DI → sellers took initiative. Same rule: confirm at a level with flow.

Keltner Channels v1 [JopAlgo]Keltner Channels v1 — a clean volatility envelope for timing pullbacks, breakouts, and risk
Keltner Channels are a moving-average centerline with volatility-based bands above and below. They give you a live “speed limit” for price: when the market is calm, bands are tight (expect mean reversion); when volatility expands, bands widen (trend moves can breathe). KC v1 keeps the classic idea but adds a small twist that traders appreciate in crypto: an adaptive centerline that switches between EMA and SMA based on trendiness, plus a choice of how you measure volatility for the bands.
This makes KC v1 useful for any timeframe—from fast scalps to multi-day swings—because it answers three practical questions on every chart:
Where’s the “middle” of price right now? (the centerline)
How far is “far” for current volatility? (the bands)
Should I fade back to the middle or ride with the expansion? (context from band width + slope)
If you attach screenshots to your script page, show one image labeling Upper / Middle / Lower bands with a classic pullback-to-middle entry, and another showing a band expansion where price hugs the outer band in trend.
What you’re seeing (and how it’s computed)
Middle band (MA):
KC v5 computes both an EMA and an SMA of your source (default close) with the same length, then auto-selects the middle band:
If ATR > SMA(ATR) over length, KC marks the market as trending and uses the EMA (faster, responsive).
Otherwise, it uses the SMA (steadier) in balance.
Result: you get a centerline that’s calm in chop and snappier in trend, without touching settings.
Upper / Lower bands:
upper = middle + (mult × volatility)
lower = middle - (mult × volatility)
You choose the volatility measure via Bands Style:
Average True Range (default): smooth, robust; uses ATR(atrlength). Best all-around choice.
True Range: raw TR each bar (more jumpy; reacts to gaps and spikes quickly).
Range: RMA of (high - low) over length (gentler; good for tight mean-reversion regimes).
Colors & fill:
Upper = red, Lower = green, Middle = white, with muted fill between bands so you can still read candles.
How to use Keltner Channels on any timeframe
Same framework everywhere: trade with the envelope when expanding, fade back to the middle when contracting—but only at objective locations and with healthy flow.
Scalping (1–5m)
Pullback-to-middle entry: In a micro-trend, wait for price to retrace to the middle band and print a hold. Enter with the trend, stop just beyond the opposite side of the middle or below minor structure; first target is the near band.
Band tap fades (only in contraction): When bands are tightening and the middle is flat, quick fades from upper → middle or lower → middle are high-probability if your volume/flow read doesn’t show aggressive pressure against you.
Avoid: Fading when bands expand and middle slopes—expect continuation instead.
Intraday (15m–1H)
Continuation rides: When bands open up (volatility expansion) and the middle slopes, price often walks the outer band. Enter on minor pullbacks that hold above the middle (for longs) and trail using the middle band or a structure stop.
Squeeze to break: A period of narrowing bands often precedes a move. Let price close outside the channel with good flow, then buy the retest toward the middle that holds.
Swing (2H–4H)
Trend participation: In established trends, treat pullbacks to the middle band as your primary entry. The upper/lower band is not a take-profit by itself—use it with Volume Profile targets (POC/HVNs) or key swing levels.
Mean reversion in balance: When the middle is flat and bands are tight over many bars, fade outer band → middle at Volume Profile edges, provided your flow read isn’t showing absorption against your idea.
Position (1D–1W)
Context: Use KC to judge regime (wide bands + slope = trend; tight/flat = balance). Position entries come from pullbacks to middle that coincide with Weekly AVWAP / VP value edges.
Entries, exits, and risk (simple rules)
Trend entry (with expansion):
Wait for band expansion + sloping middle in your direction. Enter on the first clean pullback to middle (or shallow pullback that can’t even tag middle).
Stop: below the middle band or just beyond local swing.
Trail: by the middle band in trend, or step-trail under pivots.
Targets: next Volume Profile HVN/POC or structural levels; the far Keltner band is a context line, not a hard TP.
Mean-reversion entry (in contraction):
Bands tight + flat middle → fade outer band back to middle at a Volume Profile VA edge.
Stop: just beyond the band.
Target: middle band (first), opposite band if flow remains weak.
Breakout confirmation:
A strong close outside the band by itself can be a trap. Treat it as signal only when your flow read confirms (see “Combining with other tools”).
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune them)
MA Length (default 20): controls both middle smoothness and the trending test (ATR vs SMA(ATR)).
Shorter (10–14) reacts faster, more whips in chop.
Longer (30–50) steadier middle, better for swings/position.
Multiplier (default 2.0): scales band distance.
Crypto majors: 1.8–2.2 is a good starting range on 15m–4H.
Volatile alts: 2.2–2.6 to avoid over-triggering.
If you keep getting faked out on fades: increase the multiplier.
If the channel rarely contains price for long stretches: decrease slightly.
Bands Style:
ATR for most use cases;
TR when you want maximum responsiveness to spikes;
Range for calmer envelopes in slow, balanced markets.
ATR Length (default 10): only applies if you choose ATR for band style.
Shorter = quicker band changes, good for scalps;
Longer = steadier bands for swings.
Note: KC v1 auto-selects EMA vs SMA for the middle band using the ATR trend test. That’s intentional, so you don’t have to toggle it manually.
What to look for (pattern cheatsheet)
Walk-the-band: In expansion, price hugs the outer band and barely returns to the middle—ride, don’t fade.
First touch of middle in trend: Often the cleanest add or first entry after a breakout.
Band pinch (“squeeze”): A long, narrow channel with flat middle sets up a breakout. Wait for acceptance (close outside + hold on retest).
False break tell: Price pokes outside band but closes back inside quickly—watch for reversion to middle, especially if your flow read shows Absorption against the poke.
Combining KC v1 with other tools
like the Cumulative Volume Delta v1 (CVDv1):
Do not chase an outside-band move if CVDv1 shows Absorption—that’s a classic failed break.
Prefer pullbacks to the middle band when Alignment = OK and Imbalance % is strong in your direction.
Reclaim setups: after a poke outside the band, a CVD divergence on the return through the middle often precedes a mean-reversion run.
Volume Profile v3.2 :
Use VAH/VAL/LVNs for location. A pullback-to-middle that coincides with VA boundary is A-tier.
Breakouts through LVNs with expanding bands tend to travel fast toward the next HVN/POC—good for continuation targets.
(A great screenshot: KC middle kiss at VAL with CVDv1 Efficient, then a move to POC.)
Common pitfalls KC v1 helps you avoid
Fading expansion: Trying to short the upper band when bands are widening and middle slopes up is how you get steamrolled. KC tells you it’s not that kind of day.
Chasing inside contraction: Buying every tiny outside poke while bands are pinched leads to whips. Let acceptance form; buy the retest to middle that holds.
Stops too tight: In trend, volatility is elevated; stops need to live beyond the middle or behind structure, not right at the band.
Practical defaults to start with
Length: 20
Multiplier: 2.0 (adjust ±0.2–0.4 per asset)
Bands Style: ATR
ATR Length: 10
Timeframes: works out of the box on 15m–4H; for 1–5m scalps, consider length=14; for daily swings, length=30.

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!

Liquidity Spectrum Visualizer [BigBeluga] [Optimized]This version of Liquidity Spectrum Visualizer (© BigBeluga) has been optimized to improve execution speed and reduce script load times without altering the visual output or analytical logic of the original indicator. The key improvements focus on reducing computational complexity, eliminating redundant calculations, and minimizing expensive function calls within loops.
Core Optimization Changes
Single-Pass Volume Binning (O(N) instead of O(N×M))
Original: For each bin (100) the script iterated through every bar (lookback), resulting in ~20,000 operations.
Optimized: Each bar is processed once to directly calculate its bin index. This reduces the loop complexity from O(N×M) to O(N), where N = lookback.
Precomputed Min/Max Values
Original: array.min() and array.max() were repeatedly called inside loops, re-scanning arrays hundreds of times.
Optimized: Min and max are computed once before all calculations and reused, reducing computational overhead.
Reduced Label Creation
Original: Labels were created in every iteration, potentially hundreds of times per update — a very expensive operation in Pine.
Optimized: Only two labels are created for significant high and low levels, cutting down label calls by ~99%.
Efficient Resource Management
All boxes and lines are cleared once before re-rendering instead of being deleted individually inside nested loops.
Optional gradient rendering and POC drawing remain, but only after binning is complete.
Performance Evaluation
The most important change is the reduction of loop complexity — instead of performing around 20,000 iterations per update, the optimized version now processes only about 200. This reduces execution time and makes the indicator much lighter.
Function calls such as min() and max() are now calculated only once instead of hundreds of times, which removes unnecessary overhead. Likewise, label creation has been reduced from hundreds of labels per refresh to just two, further improving performance.
As a result, the average loading time of the indicator dropped from roughly 1.5–3 seconds to about 0.05–0.2 seconds on typical datasets.
自定义均线(多色 & 分级线宽)Title: Multi-Color Moving Average Suite (MA5…MA4320) — Pine v6
Summary (1–2 lines):
An overlay indicator that plots a full ladder of SMA lines from MA5 up to MA4320. Each MA has a unique color, and line width scales with period (short = thin, mid = medium, long = thick) to make trend structure easy to read at a glance.
What it does
• Plots 16 simple moving averages: 5, 10, 20, 30, 60, 120, 160, 240, 480, 720, 960, 1440, 1750, 2880, 4320.
• Distinct colors for every MA to avoid confusion when lines cluster.
• Period-based thickness:
• Short-term (<60) = thin,
• Mid-term (60–160) = medium,
• Long-term (≥240) = thick (capped; no unlimited growth).
• Designed for quick trend reading across intraday to multi-year cycles (especially useful for 24/7 markets like crypto).
How to use
1. Add the indicator to any chart (works on all symbols/timeframes).
2. Use the thin/medium/thick visual hierarchy to identify short-/mid-/long-term bias and crossovers.
3. On very low timeframes, consider hiding some ultra-long MAs if your chart has insufficient history.
Notes
• Built with Pine Script v6; uses ta.sma(close, length) only (no repainting).
• Very long MAs (e.g., 2880/4320) require enough bars; they will display na until sufficient history loads.
• No inputs/alerts by default—kept intentionally simple for clarity. (Easy to extend with toggles, custom colors, EMA/WMA options, alerts, etc.)

标题: 多色均线系统(MA5…MA4320)— Pine v6
摘要(1–2 句):
这是一个叠加在价格上的 SMA 均线组,从 MA5 到 MA4320。为每条均线设置了 独立颜色,并按 周期长度分级线宽(短=细、中=中等、长=较粗),让趋势结构一眼可读。
功能说明
• 绘制 16 条简单移动平均线:5、10、20、30、60、120、160、240、480、720、960、1440、1750、2880、4320。
• 全部不同颜色,避免密集时混淆。
• 线宽随周期分级:
• 短期(<60)= 细,
• 中期(60–160)= 中等,
• 长期(≥240)= 粗(封顶,不再无限加粗)。
• 适合从日内到多年周期的 趋势快速判读(对加密等 24/7 市场尤为友好)。
使用建议
1. 将指标添加到任意品种/周期。
2. 结合细/中/粗的视觉层级,判断短/中/长趋势与均线交叉。
3. 在较低周期下,如果历史数据不足,可隐藏部分超长均线。
注意事项
• 使用 Pine v6,仅调用 ta.sma(close, length),不重绘。
• 超长均线需要足够历史数据,未满足前会显示 na。
• 默认不含参数和告警,追求简洁清晰(后续可扩展开关、自定义颜色/线宽、EMA/WMA 选项与告警等)。

Atlantean Sideways / Range Regime DetectorPurpose
When using trend based indicators, you can skip the false signals when there is a sideways action, protecting you from the false signals.
Flags likely sideways/range phases using three checks:
Weak trend (ADX from DMI)
Price compression (Bollinger Band Width, normalized)
Low volatility (NATR = ATR/Price%)
Logic
isSideways = (ADX < adxThresh) AND (bbNorm < 0.25) AND (NATR < natrMax)
When true: bars + background turn teal and a provisional Range High/Low (rolling rangeWin) is drawn.
Key Inputs
DMI: diLen(22)
Optimized for 15 mins Bitcoin, could change it to 14 for more general approach
ADX: adxSmooth(14), adxThresh(18)
Volatility: lenATR(14), natrMax(1.8)
Visuals: rangeWin(20), bar/range toggles
Quick Tuning
More signals: raise adxThresh to 20–25, raise natrMax to 2.5–4.0, increase BB cutoff by editing bbNorm < 0.25 --> 0.35–0.50.
Smoother range lines: increase rangeWin to 30–40.
Use Cases
Mean reversion inside teal ranges.
Breakout prep when price closes outside the drawn range after teal ends. Could be used as a signal although not suggested.
Filter trend systems: skip trades when sidewaysCond is true. This is the main purpose, for it to be combined with trend based indicators, like Supertrend.
Alert
“Sideways Detected” triggers when isSideways is true.
Script could be expanded upon your requests.

EMAs Personalizáveis (até 5)📘 Indicator Explanation – Customizable EMAs (up to 5)
This indicator was developed in Pine Script v6 to make it easier to visualize multiple Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) on a single chart.
🔑 Main features:
Supports up to 5 different EMAs.
Ability to enable or disable each EMA individually.
Fully customizable period for each EMA.
Flexible color selection for better visual organization.
Adjustable line thickness to highlight the most relevant levels.
📌 How to use:
Open the indicator settings.
Select which EMAs you want to display (from 1 to 5).
Define the period (e.g., 20, 50, 100, 200, etc.).
Choose a color for each EMA.
Observe price behavior relative to the EMAs to identify:
Trends → price above long EMAs indicates bullish strength.
Reversals → EMA crossovers may signal a change in direction.
Dynamic support and resistance → EMAs often act as reaction zones for price.
💡 Practical example:
Short EMA (20) → shows short-term movement.
Mid-term EMA (50 or 100) → confirms trend direction.
Long EMA (200 or 500) → indicates the overall market trend.
👉 This indicator is flexible and can be used for scalping, swing trading, or position trading, depending on the chosen periods.
CMC Macro Regime PanelOverview (what it is):
A macro‑regime gate built entirely from TradingView-native symbols (CRYPTOCAP, FRED, DXY/VIX, HYG/LQD). It aggregates central‑bank liquidity (Fed balance sheet − RRP − Treasury General Account), USD strength, credit conditions, stablecoin flows/dominance, tech beta and BTC–NDX co‑move into one normalized score (CLRC). The panel outputs Risk‑ON/OFF regimes, an Early 3/5 pre‑signal, and an automatic BTC vs ETH vs ALTs preference. It is intentionally scoped to Daily & Weekly reads (no intraday timing). Publish with a clean chart and a clear description as per TradingView rules.
TradingView
Why we also use other TradingView screens (and why that is compliant)
This script pulls data via request.security() from official TV symbols only; users often want to open the raw series on separate charts to sanity‑check:
CRYPTOCAP indices: TOTAL, TOTAL2, TOTAL3 (market cap aggregates) and dominance tickers like BTC.D, USDT.D. Helpful for regime & rotation (ALTs vs BTC). TradingView provides definitions for crypto market cap and dominance symbols.

What you see on the chart
White line (CLRC) = macro regime score.
Background: Green = Risk‑ON, Red = Risk‑OFF, Teal = Early 3/5 (pre‑signal).
Table: shows each component’s z‑score and the Preference: BTC / ETH / ALTs / Mixed.
Signals & interpretation
Designed for Daily (1D) and Weekly (1W) only.
Regime gates (default Fast preset):
Enter ON: CLRC ≥ +0.8; Hold ON while ≥ +0.5.
Enter OFF: CLRC ≤ −1.0; Hold OFF while ≤ −0.5.
0 / ±1 reading: CLRC is a standardized composite.
~0 = neutral baseline (no macro edge).
≥ +1 = strong macro tailwind (≈ +1σ).
≤ −1 = strong headwind (≈ −1σ).
Early 3/5 (teal): a fast pre‑signal when at least 3 of 5 daily checks align: USDT.D↓, DXY↓, VIX↓, HYG/LQD↑, ETHBTC↑ or TOTAL3↑. It often precedes a full ON flip—use for pre‑positioning rather than full sizing.
BTC/ETH/ALTs selector (only when ON):
ALTs when BTC.D↓ and (ETHBTC↑ or TOTAL3↑) ⇒ rotate down the risk curve.
BTC when BTC.D↑ and ETHBTC↓ ⇒ keep it concentrated.
ETH when ETHBTC↑ while BTC.D flat/up ⇒ add ETH beta.
(Dominance mechanics are documented by TV.)
TradingView
Dissonance (incompatibility) rules — when to stand down
Use these overrides to avoid false comfort:
CLRC > +1 but USDT.D↑ and/or VIX spikes day‑over‑day → downgrade to Neutral; wait for USDT.D to stabilize and VIX to cool (VIX is a fear gauge of 30‑day expectation).
Cboe Global Markets
CLRC > +1 but DXY↑ sharply (USD squeeze) → size below normal; require DXY momentum to roll over.
CLRC < −1 but Early 3/5 = true two days in a row → start reducing underweights; look for ON flip within a few bars.
NetLiq improving (W) but credit (HYG/LQD) deteriorating (D) → treat as mixed regime; prefer BTC over ALTs.
How to use (step‑by‑step)
A. Read on Daily (1D) — main regime
Open CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL3, 1D (panel applied).
Wait for bar close (use alerts on confirmed bar). Pine docs recommend barstate.isconfirmed to avoid repainting on realtime bars.
TradingView
If ON, check Preference (BTC / ETH / ALTs).
Then drop to 4H on your trading pair for micro entries (this indicator itself is not for intraday timing).
B. Confirm weekly macro (1W) — once per week)
Review WALCL/RRP/TGA after the H.4.1 release on Thursdays ~4:30 pm ET. WALCL is “Weekly, as of Wednesday”; M2 is Monthly—so do not expect daily responsiveness from these.
Federal Reserve
+2
FRED
+2
Recommended check times (practical schedule)
Daily regime read: right after your chart’s daily close (confirmed bar). For consistent timing across crypto, many users set chart timezone to UTC and read ~00:05 UTC; you can change chart timezone in TV’s settings.
TradingView
In‑day monitoring: optional spot checks 16:00 & 20:00 UTC (DXY/VIX move during US hours), but act only after the daily bar confirms.
Weekly macro pass: Thu 21:30–22:30 UTC (after H.4.1 4:30 pm ET) or Fri after daily close, to let weekly FRED series propagate.
Federal Reserve
Limitations & data latency (be explicit)
Higher‑TF data & confirmation: FRED weekly/monthly series will not reflect intraday risk in crypto; we aggregate them for regime, not for entry timing.
Repainting 101: Realtime bars move until close. This script does not use lookahead and follows Pine guidance on multi‑TF series; still, always act on confirmed bars.
TradingView
+1
Public‑library compliance: Title EN‑only; description starts in EN; clean chart; justify component mash‑up; no lookahead; no unrealistic claims.
TradingView
Alerts you can use
“Macro Risk‑ON (entry)” — fires on ON flip (confirmed bar).
“Macro Risk‑OFF (entry)” — fires on OFF flip.
“Early 3/5” — fires when the teal pre‑signal appears (not a regime flip).
“Preference change” — BTC/ETH/ALTs toggles while ON.
Publish note: Alerts are fine; just avoid implying guaranteed accuracy/performance.
TradingView
Background research (why these inputs matter)
Liquidity → Crypto: Fed H.4.1 timing and series definitions (WALCL, RRP, TGA) formalize the “net liquidity” concept used here.

Stablecoins ↔ Non‑stable crypto: empirical work shows bi‑directional causality between stablecoin market cap and non‑stable crypto cap; stablecoin growth co‑moves with broader crypto activity.
Global liquidity link: world liquidity positively relates to total crypto market cap; lagged effects are observed at monthly horizons.
VIX/Uncertainty effect: fear shocks impair BTC’s “safe haven” behavior; VIX is a meaningful risk‑off read.
Order Block Volumatic FVG StrategyInspired by: Volumatic Fair Value Gaps —
License: CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 (Creative Commons Attribution–NonCommercial–ShareAlike).
This script is a non-commercial derivative work that credits the original author and keeps the same license.
What this strategy does
This turns BigBeluga’s visual FVG concept into an entry/exit strategy. It scans bullish and bearish FVG boxes, measures how deep price has mitigated into a box (as a percentage), and opens a long/short when your mitigation threshold and filters are satisfied. Risk is managed with a fixed Stop Loss % and a Trailing Stop that activates only after a user-defined profit trigger.
Additions vs. the original indicator
✅ Strategy entries based on % mitigation into FVGs (long/short).
✅ Lower-TF volume split using upticks/downticks; fallback if LTF data is missing (distributes prior bar volume by close’s position in its H–L range) to avoid NaN/0.
✅ Per-FVG total volume filter (min/max) so you can skip weak boxes.
✅ Age filter (min bars since the FVG was created) to avoid fresh/immature boxes.
✅ Bull% / Bear% share filter (the 46%/53% numbers you see inside each FVG).
✅ Optional candle confirmation and cooldown between trades.
✅ Risk management: fixed SL % + Trailing Stop with a profit trigger (doesn’t trail until your trigger is reached).
✅ Pine v6 safety: no unsupported args, no indexof/clamp/when, reverse-index deletes, guards against zero/NaN.
How a trade is decided (logic overview)
Detect FVGs (same rules as the original visual logic).
For each FVG currently intersected by the bar, compute:
Mitigation % (how deep price has entered the box).
Bull%/Bear% split (internal volume share).
Total volume (printed on the box) from LTF aggregation or fallback.
Age (bars) since the box was created.
Apply your filters:
Mitigation ≥ Long/Short threshold.
Volume between your min and max (if enabled).
Age ≥ min bars (if enabled).
Bull% / Bear% within your limits (if enabled).
(Optional) the current candle must be in trade direction (confirm).
If multiple FVGs qualify on the same bar, the strategy uses the most recent one.
Enter long/short (no pyramiding).
Exit with:
Fixed Stop Loss %, and
Trailing Stop that only starts after price reaches your profit trigger %.
Input settings (quick guide)
Mitigation source: close or high/low. Use high/low for intrabar touches; close is stricter.
Mitigation % thresholds: minimal mitigation for Long and Short.
TOTAL Volume filter: skip FVGs with too little/too much total volume (per box).
Bull/Bear share filter: require, e.g., Long only if Bull% ≥ 50; avoid Short when Bull% is high (Short Bull% max).
Age filter (bars): e.g., ≥ 20–30 bars to avoid fresh boxes.
Confirm candle: require candle direction to match the trade.
Cooldown (bars): minimum bars between entries.
Risk:
Stop Loss % (fixed from entry price).
Activate trailing at +% profit (the trigger).
Trailing distance % (the trailing gap once active).
Lower-TF aggregation:
Auto: TF/Divisor → picks 1/3/5m automatically.
Fixed: choose 1/3/5/15m explicitly.
If LTF can’t be fetched, fallback allocates prior bar’s volume by its close position in the bar’s H–L.
Suggested starting presets (you should optimize per market)
Mitigation: 60–80% for both Long/Short.
Bull/Bear share:
Long: Bull% ≥ 50–70, Bear% ≤ 100.
Short: Bull% ≤ 60 (avoid shorting into strong support), Bear% ≥ 0–70 as you prefer.
Age: ≥ 20–30 bars.
Volume: pick a min that filters noise for your symbol/timeframe.
Risk: SL 4–6%, trailing trigger 1–2%, distance 1–2% (crypto example).
Set slippage/fees in Strategy Properties.
Notes, limitations & best practices
Data differences: The LTF split uses request.security_lower_tf. If the exchange/data feed has sparse LTF data, the fallback kicks in (it’s deliberate to avoid NaNs but is a heuristic).
Real-time vs backtest: The current bar can update until close; results on historical bars use closed data. Use “Bar Replay” to understand intrabar effects.
No pyramiding: Only one position at a time. Modify pyramiding in the header if you need scaling.
Assets: For spot/crypto, TradingView “volume” is exchange volume; in some markets it may be tick volume—interpret filters accordingly.
Risk disclosure: Past performance ≠ future results. Use appropriate position sizing and risk controls; this is not financial advice.

Iron Condor Pro v6 – Full EngineIronCondor Engine v6.6 is a multi-mode options strategy tool for planning and managing iron condors, straddles, strangles, and butterflies. It supports both setup planning and live trade tracking with modeled delta, risk-based strike selection, IV rank estimation, and visual breach alerts.
Use Setup Mode to preview strike structures based on IV proxy, ATR, delta targeting, and risk tier (High/Mid/Low/Delta). Use Live Mode to track real trades, enter strike/premium data, and monitor live P&L, delta drift, and range status.
This script does not connect to live option chains. Volatility and delta are modeled using price history. All strikes and premiums must be confirmed using your broker before placing trades. Best used with strong support/resistance levels and high IV rank (30%+).
For educational purposes only.
Workflow Guide
Use this flow whether you're setting up on Sunday night or any day before placing a trade.
Step 0: Pre-Script Preparation
Before using the script:
Identify major support and resistance zones on your chart. Define the expected range or consolidation area. Use this context to help evaluate strike placement
1. Setup Phase (Pre-Trade Planning)
Step 1 – Load the Script
Add: IronCondor Engine v6.6 – Full Risk/Decay Edition to your chart
Step 2 – Set Mode = Setup
This enables planning mode, where the engine calculates strike combinations based on:
Your selected risk profile (High, Mid, Low, or Delta)
Historical volatility (20-day log return)
ATR (Average True Range)
Target short delta (adjustable)
Step 3 – Review Setup Table
Enable Show Setup Table to view calculated strikes and width by risk tier.
Adjust any of the following as needed:
Target Short Delta
Strike Interval ($)
Width multipliers (High/Mid/Low)
Risk tier under Auto-Feed Choice
Step 4 – Evaluate the Setup
Is the net credit at least 1.5–2.0x your max risk?
Are the short strikes clearly outside support/resistance zones?
Are the short deltas between 0.15 and 0.30?
Is the range wide enough to handle normal price movement?
Step 5 – Prep for Execution
Enable Auto-Feed Setup → Live to carry Setup strikes into Live mode
Or disable it if you prefer to manually enter strikes later
2. Trade Execution (Live Tracking Mode)
Step 1 – Place the Trade with Your Broker
Use your brokerage (TOS, Tasty, IBKR, etc.) to place the iron condor or other structure
Step 2 – Set Mode = Live
In Live mode:
If Auto-Feed is ON, the Setup strikes auto-populate
If Auto-Feed is OFF, manually enter:
Short and long strikes (Call and Put)
Premiums collected/paid per leg
Total net credit (Entry Credit)
Optional: Input current mid prices for each leg in the "Live Chain" section to track live mark-to-market P&L
Once all required fields are valid, the script activates:
Real-time profit/loss tracking
Max risk estimate
Delta monitoring on short legs
IV Rank estimate
Breach detection system
Chart visuals (if enabled)
3. Trade Management (During the Week)
While the trade is active, use the dashboard and visuals to monitor:
Key Metrics:
Unrealized P/L %
Mark-to-market value vs entry credit
Daily decay (theta)
Days until expiration
Breach status:
In Range
Near Breach
Breached
Alerts:
Price near short strike → suggests roll
Price breaches long strike → breach alert
50% or 75% profit → optional exit signal
Delta exceeds threshold → exposure may need adjustment
Management Tips:
At 50–75% profit: consider closing early
If price nears a short leg: roll, hedge, or manage
If nearing expiry: decide whether to hold or close
If IV collapses: may accelerate time decay or reduce exit value
4. End-of-Week or Expiration Management
If Profit Target Hit
Close early to reduce risk and lock gains
If Still Open Near Expiry
Close the position or
Hold through expiration only if you're fully prepared for pinning/gamma/assignment scenarios
Avoid holding open spreads over the weekend unless part of a defined strategy
Reference Notes
Strike Width
Defined as:
Width = Distance between Short and Long strike
Used for calculating max loss and breach visuals
Delta Guidelines
0.15–0.20 = safer, wider range, lower credit
0.25–0.30 = more aggressive, tighter range, higher credit
Use Target Short Delta input to adjust auto-selected strikes accordingly
Credit Example
Sell Call: $1.04
Sell Put: $0.23
Buy Call + Put wings: $0.14
Net Credit = $1.13 = $113 per contract (max profit)
This is the max profit if price stays between short strikes through expiration
IV Rank (Estimated)
This script does not use options chain IV data.
Instead, it calculates a volatility proxy:
ivRaw = ta.stdev(log returns, 20) * sqrt(252)
IV Rank is then calculated as the percentile of this value within the last 252 bars.
High IV Rank (30%–100%) → better premium-selling conditions
Low IV Rank (<30%) → lower edge for condors
Ideal to sell premium when IV Rank is above 30–50%
Disclosures and Limitations
This script is for educational use only
It does not connect to live option chains
All strikes, deltas, and premiums must be validated through your broker
Always confirm real-time IV, delta, and pricing before placing a trade
AI Trading Alerts v6 — SL/TP + Confidence + Panel (Fixed)Overview
This Pine Script is designed to identify high-probability trading opportunities in Forex, commodities, and crypto markets. It combines EMA trend filters, RSI, and Stochastic RSI, with automatic stop-loss (SL) & take-profit (TP) suggestions, and provides a confidence panel to quickly assess the trade setup strength.
It also includes TradingView alert conditions so you can set up notifications for Long/Short setups and EMA crosses.
⚙️ Features
EMA Trend Filter
Uses EMA 50, 100, 200 for trend confirmation.
Bull trend = EMA50 > EMA100 > EMA200
Bear trend = EMA50 < EMA100 < EMA200
RSI Filter
Bullish trades require RSI > 50
Bearish trades require RSI < 50
Stochastic RSI Filter
Prevents entries during overbought/oversold extremes.
Bullish entry only if %K and %D < 80
Bearish entry only if %K and %D > 20
EMA Proximity Check
Price must be near EMA50 (within ATR × adjustable multiplier).
Signals
Continuation Signals:
Long if all bullish conditions align.
Short if all bearish conditions align.
Cross Events:
Long Cross when price crosses above EMA50 in bull trend.
Short Cross when price crosses below EMA50 in bear trend.
Automatic SL/TP Suggestions
SL size adjusts depending on asset:
Gold/Silver (XAU/XAG): 5 pts
Bitcoin/Ethereum: 100 pts
FX pairs (default): 20 pts
TP = SL × Risk:Reward ratio (default 1:2).
Confidence Score (0–4)
Based on conditions met (trend, RSI, Stoch, EMA proximity).
Labels:
Strongest (4/4)
Strong (3/4)
Medium (2/4)

Top-right of chart, you’ll see ✅ or ❌ for:
Trend → Are EMAs aligned?
RSI → Above 50 (bull) or below 50 (bear)?
Stoch OK → Not extreme?
Near EMA50 → Close enough to EMA50?
Above/Below OK → Price position vs. EMA50 matches trend?
Signal Now → Entry triggered?
Confidence row:
🟢 Green = Strongest
🟩 Light green = Strong
🟧 Orange = Medium
🟨 Yellow = Low
⬜ Gray = None
4. Alerts Setup

Choose the script under “Condition”.
Select alert type:
Long Setup
Short Setup
Long Cross
Short Cross
Set notification method (popup, sound, email, mobile).
Click Create.
Now TradingView will notify you automatically when signals appear.
5. Example Workflow
Wait for Confidence = Strong/Strongest.
Check if market session supports volatility (e.g., XAU in London/NY).
Review SL/TP suggestions:
Long → Entry: current price, SL: close - risk_pts, TP: close + risk_pts × RR.
Short → Entry: current price, SL: close + risk_pts, TP: close - risk_pts × RR.
Adjust based on your own price action analysis.
📊 Best Practices
Use on H1 + D1 combo → align higher timeframe bias with intraday entries.
Risk only 1–2% of account per trade (position sizing required).
Filter with market sessions (Asia, Europe, US).
Strongest signals work best with trending pairs (e.g., XAUUSD, USDJPY, BTCUSD).
