Atlantean Bitcoin Weekly Market Condition - Top/Bottom BTC Overview:
The "Atlantean Bitcoin Weekly Market Condition Detector - Top/Bottom BTC" is a specialized TradingView indicator designed to identify significant turning points in the Bitcoin market on a weekly basis. By analyzing long-term and short-term moving averages across two distinct resolutions, this indicator provides traders with valuable insights into potential market bottoms and tops, as well as the initiation of bull markets.
Key Features:
Market Bottom Detection: The script uses a combination of a simple moving average (SMA) and an exponential moving average (EMA) calculated over long and short periods to identify potential market bottoms. When these conditions are met, the script signals a "Market Bottom" label on the chart, indicating a possible buying opportunity.
Bull Market Start Indicator: When the short-term EMA crosses above the long-term SMA, it signals the beginning of a bull market. This is marked by a "Bull Market Start" label on the chart, helping traders to prepare for potential market upswings.
Market Top Detection: The script identifies potential market tops by analyzing the crossunder of long and short-term moving averages. A "Market Top" label is plotted, suggesting a potential selling point.
Customizable Moving Averages Display: Users can choose to display the moving averages used for detecting market tops and bottoms, providing additional insights into market conditions.
How It Works: The indicator operates by monitoring the interactions between the specified moving averages:
Market Bottom: Detected when the long-term SMA (adjusted by a factor of 0.745) crosses over the short-term EMA.
Bull Market Start: Detected when the short-term EMA crosses above the long-term SMA.
Market Top: Detected when the long-term SMA (adjusted by a factor of 2) crosses under the short-term SMA.
These conditions are highlighted on the chart, allowing traders to visualize significant market events and make informed decisions.
Intended Use: This indicator is best used on weekly Bitcoin charts. It’s designed to provide long-term market insights rather than short-term trading signals. Traders can use this tool to identify strategic entry and exit points during major market cycles. The optional display of moving averages can further enhance understanding of market dynamics.
Originality and Utility: Unlike many other indicators, this script not only highlights traditional market tops and bottoms but also identifies the aggressive start of bull markets, offering a comprehensive view of market conditions. The unique combination of adjusted moving averages makes this script a valuable tool for long-term Bitcoin traders.
Disclaimer: The signals provided by this indicator are based on historical data and mathematical calculations. They do not guarantee future market performance. Traders should use this tool as part of a broader trading strategy and consider other factors before making trading decisions. Not financial advice.
Happy Trading!

Bitcoin Fundamentals - Bitcoin Block RewardThe Bitcoin Block Reward is the batch of new Bitcoins generated by the miners after solving each block.
The Block Reward is set as a basic rule and cannot be changed without agreement between the entire Bitcoin network. It started at 50 BTC during the first period. Afterwards the Block Reward gets adjusted to half of it value (Halving Event) on each cycle of 210000 blocks mined.
This is the only way that new bitcoins are created. It creates an incentive for miners to secure the network.
Over time the Block Reward will decreases to a value that might not cover the mining costs. At that point, the use of the Bitcoin Network might have increased sufficiently as to generate enough transaction fees to cover the mining costs.
MOTIVATION
Even though this is a very simple indicator, I'm currently missing a data source to compute the Block Reward value within Tradingview. Therefore, I created this indicator and its associated library function to enable its visualization and (eventually) for coders to make use of the source function to power more elaborate scripts related to the Halving Events.
Hope that helps!
(mab) Dynamic Bitcoin NVT SignalBitcoin`s NVT is calculated by dividing the Network Value (market cap) by the USD volume transmitted through the blockchain daily. Note this equivalent of the bitcoin token supply divided by the daily BTC value transmitted through the blockchain, NVT is technically inverse monetary velocity.
Credits go to Willy Woo for creating the Network Value Transaction Ratio (NVT). Credits go also to Dimitry Kalichkin improving NVT and creating the NVT Signal (NVTS).
According to its creator, the NVT Ratio is somewhat similar to the PE Ratio used in equity markets. When Bitcoin`s NVT is high, it indicates that its network valuation is outstripping the value being transmitted on its payment network, this can happen when the network is in high growth and investors are valuing it as a high return investment, or alternatively when the price is in an unsustainable bubble.
I created this indicator because the NVT indicator I was using suddenly stopped working. I tried a number of other NVT indicators, but all of them seem to have the same problem and stopped updating after a certain date. The cause is that the data feed from 'Quandl' that is used by most NVT indicators is no longer updated through the previous API.
Instead TradingView created a special API to access 'Quandl" data. This indicator not only uses the new API for 'Quandl', it can also access data from other providers like 'Glassnode', 'CoinMetrics' and 'IntoTheBlock'. However, the 'Quandl' data feed seems to produce the best results with this indicator.
The indicator provides dynamically adjusting overbought and oversold thresholds based on a two year moving average and standard devition with adjustable multipliers. It also implements alerts for NVT going into overbought, oversold or crossing the moving average.

LMACD - Logarithmic MACD Weekly BTC Index [Logue]Logarithmic Moving Average Convergence Divergence (LMACD) Weekly Indicator - The LMACD is a momentum indicator that measures the strength of a trend using 12-period and 26-period moving averages. The weekly LMACD for this indicator is calculated by determining the difference between the log (base 10) of the 12-week and 26-week exponential moving averages. Larger positive numbers indicate a larger positive momentum.
For tops: The default setting for tops is based on decreasing "strength" of BTC tops. A decreasing linear function (trigger = slope * time + intercept) was fit to past cycle tops for this indicator and is used as the default to signal macro tops. The user can change the slope and intercept of the line by changing the slope and/or intercept factor. The user also has the option to indicate tops based on a horizontal line via a settings selection. This line default value is 0.125. This indicator is triggered for a top when the LMACD is above the trigger value.
For bottoms: Bottoms are displayed based on a horizontal line with a default setting of -0.07. The indicator is triggered for a bottom when the LMACD is below the bottom trigger value.
PDM - Plus Directional Movement Weekly BTC Index [Logue]Plus Directional Movement (PDM) weekly BTC index - The PDM is a momentum indicator that measures the strength of a trend in the positive direction. The weekly PDM is calculated by determining the difference between the week's high price and the previous week's high price smoothed by a 14-period moving average. Higher PDM values indicate higher momentum in the positive (higher price) direction. The default triggers for this indicator are PDM values above 55 for tops and below 14 for bottoms.
Volume Sum BTC ETFsThis volume indicator tracks the volume of these 10 bitcoin ETFS:
AMEX:GBTC, NASDAQ:IBIT, AMEX:BTCO, AMEX:ARKB, AMEX:HODL, AMEX:EZBC, NASDAQ:BRRR, AMEX:BTCW, AMEX:DEFI, AMEX:BITB
It multiplies the traded shares with the hl2 share price and then devides the volume by the bitcoin hl2 price.
You can change to usd volume in settings.
Enjoy!
Notice that historical volume comes from etfs which traded already before launch like GBTC.
Also notice that that btc trades also when tradfi markets are closed, so then the indicator will show the last available volume. Something to fix later.
Polylog Regression - Bitcoin (BTC) [Logue]Polynomial Logarithmic Regression. The BTC cycle tops and bottoms were separately fit using a polynomial regression. The extensions are linear; meaning the extensions will overestimate the future top and bottom bands. The bottom band was fit on much more data than the top band, so is likely to be more reliable. The shape of the regression into the future was estimated, so may not be accurate into the future.
Use this indicator at your own risk. I make no claims as to its accuracy in forecasting future tops or bottoms of bitcoin.
This is used in the "BBI - Bitcoin Bottom Indicator," "BTI - Bitcoin Top Indicator", and the "BTB - Bitcoin Top and Bottom Indicator". Please see these indicators for more information as to how to support me developing more indicators in my spare time.
Realized price for BTC, ETH, LTCThis script calculates the realized price of BTC/ETH/LTC and shows a signal when the market price falls below the realized price - which can be signal a for potential market bottom. The realized price calculation is based on Glassnode data MVRV ratio.
- Realized Price is the average price of the Bitcoin supply, valued at the day each coin last transacted on-chain. This is often considered the 'on-chain cost basis' of the market.
- MVRV Ratio is the ratio between the market value (MV, spot price) and the Realized value (RV, realized price), allowing for a visualization of Bitcoin market cycles, and profitability.
Calculations:
REALIZED PRICE = REALIZED MARKET CAP / CIRCULATION SUPPLY
REALIZED MARKET CAP = 1 / MVRV * MARKET CAP
It's working with BTCUSD, ETHUSD, LTCUSD tickers only.
Fierytrading: Volatility DepthDear Tradingview community,
I'd like to share one of my staple indicators with you. The volatility depth indicator calculates the volatility over a 7-day period and plots it on your chart.
This indicator only works for the DAILY chart on BTC/USD.
Colors
I've color coded the indicator as follows:
- Red: Extreme Volatility
- Orange: High Volatility
- Yellow: Normal Volatility
- Green: Low Volatility
Red: extreme changes in price. Often during local tops and bottoms.
Orange: higher than average moves in price. Often before or after a "red" period. Often seen in the middle of bear or bull markets.
Yellow: normal price action. Often seen during early stage bull-markets and late stage bear-markets.
Green: very low price movement. Often during times of indecision. Once this indicator becomes green, you can expect a big move in either direction. Low volatility is always followed by high volatility.
In a long-term uptrend, a green period often signals a bullish break out. In a long-term downtrend it often signals a bearish break out.
How to use
Save the indicator and apply it to your chart. You can change the length in the settings, but it's optimized for 7 days, so no need to change it.
I've build in alerts for all 4 different volatility periods. In most cases, the low volatility alert is enough.
Good luck!

Bitcoin SOPR HeatmapSOPR (spent output profit ratio) is a metric, provided by Glassnode to measure if most BTC are moved in profit or in loss. The higher SOPR is, the more profits are realized (theoretically) and vice versa.
This indicator shows SOPR visually as a heatmap directly on the Bitcoin chart.
Cold temperatures (blue, purple) show bear markets. Bear market peaks should be visible in dark purple.
Hot temperatues (yellow, red) show bull markets. Hype phases should be visible in red.
I recommend to hide chart when using the indicator. Otherwise you can also enlarge the heatmap in the settings.
The indicator works best on BTCUSD standard charts on daily timeframe. Otherwise you will see an error message.
ViPlay Signal demo versionViPlay Signal is a trading indicator designed for the TradingView platform that generates buy and sell signals based on a combination of technical indicators. The indicator uses two different Moving Averages, the Market Range Oscillator (MRO), and the Williams Percent Range (WPR) to provide traders with a comprehensive set of tools for identifying potential entry and exit points, confirming trends, and managing risk.
The Moving Averages used in the indicator are the 50-period and 200-period Simple Moving Averages (SMA) of the closing price, which are widely used in technical analysis to identify trends and support/resistance levels. The Market Range Oscillator (MRO) is a proprietary indicator that measures the range of the market, which can help identify extreme market conditions. The MRO is used to determine buy and sell signals, with two different calculations performed to identify each type of signal.
The Williams Percent Range (WPR) is a momentum indicator that helps traders identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market. By using the WPR in combination with the Moving Averages and the MRO, the ViPlay Signal indicator can provide more accurate and reliable signals to traders.
The indicator allows users to select a strategy from a dropdown menu that includes BTC 1m, 3m, 15m, 4H, and LTC 3m, ideal 5m, and 15m super. The values of some of the parameters change based on the selected strategy, allowing traders to customize the indicator to their specific needs.
The ViPlay Signal indicator plots buy and sell signals on the chart as labels with arrows pointing up or down to indicate the direction of the trade. A green arrow represents a buy signal, and a red arrow represents a sell signal. The chart is clean and easy to read, with complete symbol/timeframe and script name information provided.
In summary, the ViPlay Signal indicator is a powerful and customizable tool for traders looking to improve their trading performance. The indicator provides a comprehensive set of technical analysis tools, including Moving Averages, the MRO, and the WPR, to help traders identify potential trading opportunities and manage risk.
Trendmaster - Crypto Flow IndexWhat it is:
The Trendmaster Crypto Flow Index is a unique tool designed to give you an overview of the performance of different Crypto market sectors and sub-sectors. It helps you to identify where you should be focusing your investments for maximum portfolio efficiency and profitability.
What it does:
The Crypto Flow Index presents a visual overview of the flows of retail and institutional capital into the four main market sectors: Large Caps, Alts Coins, Shit Coins, and Stable Coins as well as several other sub-sectors. Each sector is assigned a "Flow Score", which indicates its current performance, demand, and strength in percentage terms. The "Flow Score" also provides insights into the current stage of the market cycle and the typical over and underperformances of assets that correlate to it. Additionally, the index factors in the sector have a "Correlation" to the broader market, allowing you to see the best sectors for trading and investing, either for positional hedging or differential plays.
How to Use it:
To use the Trendmaster Crypto Flow Index, you can simply observe the evolving colored line within the indicator and the table overview. You can identify which sectors are outperforming or underperforming the general market and make informed decisions about where to direct your focus and funds. By monitoring the transitions of Flow between sectors, you can gain invaluable insights into the market cycle and the typical over and underperformances of assets that correlate to it. This information will help you to maximize portfolio efficiency by targeting different market sectors based on their performance to the overall cryptocurrency market. The index covers different sectors, including Large caps, Alts, Shit, Stables, AI, Defi, Dex, Exchange, Gaming, Meme, Metaverse, Nft, Privacy, Smart, and Sports.
Examples of Cryptocurrencies represented in the different market sectors:
Large caps: The biggest market cap cryptocurrencies such as BTC and ETH.
Alts: High-cap and high-volume digital assets that are smaller than large caps, such as LTC and XRP.
Shit coins: Smaller cap projects that are highly speculative and experience significant price volatility, such as BAT and HOT.
Stables: Fiat-pegged assets that provide a stable value, such as USDT and USDC.
AI: Projects that are based on artificial intelligence, such as FET and AGIX.
DeFi: Leverages high volume smart contract platforms to provide financial products in crypto, mainly ERC20 tokens such as LINK and AAVE.
DEX: Decentralized exchanges with their own utility tokens, such as UNI and SUSHI.
Exchange: Centralized exchanges with their own utility tokens, such as BNB and CRO.
Gaming: Web3/crypto gaming platforms with their own utility tokens, such as AXS and GMT.
Meme: Similar to shit coins, but with no real functionality and based purely on social media and memes, such as DOGE and SHIB.
Metaverse: Projects that aim to provide Metaverse assets such as virtual land and assets, such as MANA and SAND.
NFT: Non-fungible tokens with their own token or NFT-based platforms that have their own utility tokens, such as APE and LOOKS.
Privacy: Anonymous and privacy-focused chains, such as XMR and ZEC.
Smart: Projects that provide smart contract alternatives to ETH, such as ADA and AVAX.
Sports: Fan tokens based on real-world sports teams or platforms that support and distribute them, such as CHZ and FLOW.
Bitcoin Halving Rainbow + S2F Model PriceOverview
The rainbow price line:
This script creates a colorful view of Bitcoin's price action, where different colors indicate the time until the next halving date. The color scale in the top right highlights what each main color group represents in terms of days until the next halving. Using historical data, the simple indication of days until the next halving has somewhat accurately predicted potential bottoms and tops of market cycles. Comparing current colors to previous cycles provides a rough view of where BTC is in its current cycle and what to expect going forward until the next halving date.
In addition to the colored price action, I have incorporated the stock-to-flow model price for Bitcoin.
The stock-to-flow (S2F) model price:
The stock-to-flow ratio is a calculation that aims to estimate how many years are required to produce the current stock of an asset, based on the current production rate. When applied to Bitcoin, we simply divide the total amount of bitcoins in circulation by the amount of bitcoins mined in a certain timeframe. Once we have this value, we can calculate a model price based on the stock-to-flow ratio. This S2F model price uses a 463-day moving average. Preston Pysh came up with this number as he believed Bitcoin cycles happen in three phases: bull run, correction, and a reversion to the mean. He estimated there are about 200,000 blocks per cycle, three phases per cycle, and ~144 blocks per day. Dividing all three gets us 463. I have removed 1,000,000 coins from this calculation to account for Satoshi's coins.
The process I took to plot this model price (credit to PlanB for originally creating this calculation):
-Declare constant variables for the halving period, starting block reward, and the number of coins Satoshi owns.
-Fetch the block index by using the request.security() function.
-Determine the number of halvings that have occurred by dividing the block index by the halving period.
-Calculate the current block reward by multiplying the initial block reward by 0.5 raised to the power of the number of halvings.
-Calculate the number of blocks mined per period (day or week) and derive the stock (total bitcoins in circulation minus Satoshi's coins) and flow (annual block rewards) from it.
-Calculate the S2F ratio by dividing the stock by the flow.
-Calculate the S2F model price by applying a mathematical formula (ModelPrice = exp(-1.84) * S2F to the power of 3.36) along with a 463-day moving average.
** Please note, due to the use of the 463-day MA, the first ~400 days of the S2F model price is not entirely accurate.
In addition to the above, I have added vertical lines on each halving date, along with labels that have a tooltip if you hover over them, which will show more information about that particular halving.
Important tips:
-This script has been designed to work on the 1-Day timeframe but can also work on the 1-Week timeframe. Any other timeframe will not accurately plot all the information due to the way I have developed the script.
-This script is best used on the ticker I have posted this on, "INDEX:BTCUSD". It can also work on "BLX" or "BITSTAMP:BTCUSD".
-Hide candles when using the script to just show the halving rainbow (hover over the symbol name in the top left and press the eye icon).
-Right-click the price scale and select "Scale price chart only" to get a better view of the plots.
-Right-click the price scale and select "Logarithmic."
-I will update the script as time goes on to show future halvings along with adjusting the next halving date as we get closer (if it changes).
Settings Menu:
Tooltips are included explaining what the settings do, but here's a quick summary:
-'Show Vertical Halving Lines?': Default is true. This allows the user to remove the vertical lines shown on each halving date.
-'Show Halving Labels?': Default is true. This allows the user to remove the info labels shown on each halving date.
-'Halving Line and Label Color': Default is white. This allows the user to change the color of the halving lines and labels to better fit their chart layout.
-'Show Stock to Flow Model Price?': Default is true. This allows the user to remove the S2F model price.
-'Stock to Flow Model Price Color': Default is white. This allows the user to change the color of the S2F model price to better fit their chart layout.
-'Draw Color Table?': Default is true. This allows the user to remove the color table in the top right of the chart.
-'Distance rainbow is away from actual price action': Default is 0 (Plots over candles). This allows the user to adjust where the halving rainbow is plotted if they would like to also see candles on the chart. (Use any value under 0.9)
Feel free to message me or comment on the post with any questions or issues!
Much more to come!
Thanks for reading, enjoy!
Altcoin Dominance (without ETH) Excluding Stablecoins UnsymetricAltcoin Dominance (without ETH) Excluding Stablecoins Unsymetric
The purpose of the script is to show Altcoin's strength without Ethereum once we exclude stablecoins.
So we look into all altcoins besides eth and besides stablecoins divided by a value of eth+btc
Wave Fusion By CryptoScriptsThe Wave Fusion indicator is finally here! This indicator is a combination of the Wave Strength Oscillator and RSVP Extractor. It used a combination of momentum waves, volume, price, RSI, and statistical analysis to help nail down whenever the current price is overextended and due for a reversal. I'm currently using the 1D timeframe for BTC but feel free to experiment on different timeframes to see what works best for you. In the description below, I'll go over each signal, how it's derived, and how to use them!
Oversold (Green shaded area) - The oversold indication appears whenever all oscillators are oversold and is usually a good indicator that a reversal to the upside is around the corner (at least for a short period). Be advised these are the weakest of the three signals so I recommend using this signal with other indicators (such as my MFI Pro).
Overbought (Red shaded area) - The overbought indication appears whenever all oscillators are overbought and is usually a good indicator that a reversal to the downside is around the corner (at least for a short period). Be advised these are the weakest of the three signals so I recommend using this signal with other indicators (such as my MFI Pro).
Green Diamond - The green diamonds indicate whenever one or more oscillators are oversold AND one or more oscillators are outside of the bollinger bands, which is great for catching reversals to the upside. These may come two or three at a time so it may be best to wait until they have all printed before entering.
Red Diamond - The red diamonds indicate whenever one or more oscillators are overbought AND one or more oscillators are outside of the bollinger bands which is great for catching reversals to the downside (as seen in the chart). These may come two or three at a time so it may be best to wait until they have all printed before entering.
Rocket - The rocket symbol occurs whenever ALL oscillators are oversold and one or more oscillators are outside of the bollinger bands . This is great for catching reversals to the upside but may come two or three at a time so it may be best to wait until they have all printed before entering.
Red Alarm - The red alarm symbol occurs whenever ALL oscillators are overbought and one or more oscillators are outside of the bollinger bands . This is great for catching reversals to the downside but may come two or three at a time so it may be best to wait until they have all printed before entering.
Moon - The Moon symbol occurs whenever ALL oscillators are oversold and ALL oscillators are outside of the bollinger bands . This is great for catching reversals to the upside but may come two or three at a time so it may be best to wait until they have all printed before entering.
Blood Moon - The red alarm symbol occurs whenever ALL oscillators are overbought and ALL oscillators are outside of the bollinger bands . This is great for catching reversals to the downside but may come two or three at a time so it may be best to wait until they have all printed before entering.
Strongest to Weakest Buy Signals - Moon --> Rocket --> Green Diamond --> Green Shaded Area
Strongest to Weakest Sell Signals - Blood Moon --> Red Alarm --> Red Diamond --> Red Shaded Area
Input Options
Show Histogram - I also included a Histogram in the indicator to help gauge the level of buys/sell strength but kept it hidden for the default levels (i.e a green diamond with a red histogram bar is usually a good sign a reversal is about to happen to the upside whereas a green diamond with a green histogram bar may indicate a false reversal and there's still more room to the downside until a red bar appears. Always backtest this!)
Show Overbought/Oversold Levels - This is if you want to ignore all of the green/red shaded areas and only focus on the diamonds and rocket/alarm signals
Wave Overbought/Oversold Levels - Free free to change to value of the overbought/oversold levels to change where the green/red shades areas print
Momentum Overbought/Oversold Levels - Free free to change to value of the overbought/oversold levels to change where the green/red shades areas print
Histogram Length - This will not change anything with the signals but I included it so you can change the visuals if it helps you
Momentum Length - This will change where the signals plot
Momentum Signal - This only changes the yellow signal line and nothing else. It's not incorporated into any equation
Average Length - This will change where the signals plot
Alerts
I've set alerts on this indicator for each icon (Oversold, Overbought, Green Diamond, Red Diamond, Rocket, Red Alarm, Moon , Blood Moon). I HIGHLY recommend setting the alerts for Candle Close so that you can be sure the signal is confirmed.
You may notice that the indicator can give multiple signals back-to-back or be overbought/oversold for multiple candles. When this happens, it's best to look at other indicators such as the MFI Pro, MACD, etc to nail the best entry and have confluence with your decision. With that said, having multiple signals back-to-back can also be an indication that the move is close to happening. This indicator works with crypto and stocks as well.
If you have any questions or would like to purchase this indicator, please comment below or PM me. I also made a video tutorial for the indicator on my Youtube channel (link is next to my profile pic)
Be advised past performance is not indicative of future returns. Backtest EVERY timeframe and NEVER blindly take signals! Also, never invest more than you can afford to lose.
Enjoy :)
ETH Dominance Excluding BTCThe indicator shows when ETH is undervalued or overvalued with regard to other alts. BTC capitalization is not taken into account.
Directional Index Macro IndicatorWhat is This For?
The default settings for this indicator are for BINANCE:BTCUSDT and intended to be used on the 3D timeframe to identify market trends. This indicator does a great job identifying whether the market is bullish, bearish, or consolidating. This can also work well on lower time frames to help identify when a trend is strong or when it's reversing.
Directional Index Rate of Change
Core to this indicator is the rate at which DI+ and DI- are moving away or towards each other. This is called The Rate of Change (ROC). "The ROC length dictates how many bars back you want to compare to the current bar to see how much it has changed. It is calculated like this:
(source - source /source ) * 100"
The rate of change is smoothed using an EMA. A shorter EMA length will cause the ROC to flip back and forth between positive and negative while a larger EMA length will cause the ROC to change less often. Since the rate of change is used to indicate periods of 'consolidation', you want to find a setting that doesn't flip back and forth too often. Between the DI+ and DI- is a blue centerline. Offset from this centerline is a channel that is used to filter out false crosses of the DI+ and DI-. Sometimes, the DI+ and DI- lines will come together in this channel and cross momentarily before resuming the direction prior to the cross. When this happens, you don't want to flip your bias too soon. The wider the channel, the later the indicator will signal a DI reversal. A narrower channel will call it sooner but risks being more choppy and indicating a false cross.
Indicator Status Line
This indicator has 4 values in the status line (in order):
DI+
DI-
Distance between DI+ and DI-
DI Rate of Change ( how quickly are DI+ and DI- moving away or towards center )
Indicator Plots
This indicator plots DI+ (green), DI- (red), and a center channel between DI- and DI+. Across the top of the indicator, red and green triangles indicate the market trend while the background changes to show whether the price is in an impulse wave or consolidating. This makes up 4 possible scenarios:
Bullish impulse wave ( green triangle up + green background )
Bullish consolidation ( green triangle up + yellow background )
Bearish impulse wave ( red triangle down + red background )
Bearish consolidation ( red triangle down + yellow background )
Summary
Combined with support and resistance levels, volume, and your other favorite indicators, this can be a useful tool for validating that your entries are not going against the trend.
Disclaimer
This is not financial advice. Do not take trades only based on the DI+ and DI- crossing. Always use multiple indicators to validate your entries and never take a trade when you aren’t emotionally grounded. Have a plan. Stick to the plan.
The screenshot for this strategy is of a manual historical review of BTC on the 3 day chart. The indicator was built to try and mimic the chart above. You’ll see that it nails it sometimes, is a little late sometimes, and chops around between consolidation and impulse waves when it should stay in consolidation. Share your settings if you are able to improve the choppiness without sacrificing catching the reversals early.
