The Commitment of Traders (COT) IndexThe COT Index indicator is used to measure the positioning of different market participants (Large Traders, Small Traders, and Commercial Hedgers) relative to their historical positioning over a specified lookback period. It helps traders identify extreme positioning, which can signal potential reversals or trend continuations.
Key Features of the Indicator:
COT Data Retrieval
The script pulls COT report data from the TradingView COT Library TradingView/LibraryCOT/3).
It retrieves long and short positions for three key groups:
Large Traders (Non-commercial positions) – Speculators such as hedge funds.
Small Traders (Non-reportable positions) – Small retail traders.
Commercial Hedgers (Commercial positions) – Institutions that hedge real-world positions.
Threshold Zones for Extreme Positioning:
Upper Zone Threshold (Default: 90%)
Signals potential overbought conditions (excessive buying).
Lower Zone Threshold (Default: 10%)
Signals potential oversold conditions (excessive selling).
The indicator plots these zones using horizontal lines.
The COT Index should be used in conjunction with technical analysis (support/resistance, trends, etc.). A high COT Index does not mean the market will reverse immediately—it’s an indication of extreme sentiment.
Note:
If the script does not recognize or can't find the ticker currently viewed in the COT report, the COT indicator will default to U.S. Dollar.

Waldo Cloud Bollinger Bands
Waldo Cloud Bollinger Bands Indicator Description for TradingView
Title: Waldo Cloud Bollinger Bands
Short Title: Waldo Cloud BB
Overview:
The Waldo Cloud Bollinger Bands indicator is a sophisticated tool designed for traders looking to combine the volatility analysis of Bollinger Bands with the momentum insights of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and moving average crossovers. This indicator overlays on your chart, providing a visual representation that helps in identifying potential trading opportunities based on price action, momentum, and trend direction.
Concept:
This indicator merges three key technical analysis concepts:
Bollinger Bands: These are used to measure market volatility. The bands consist of a central moving average (basis) with an upper and lower band that are standard deviations away from this average. In this indicator, you can customize the type of moving average used for the basis (SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, VWMA), the length of the period, the source price, and the standard deviation multiplier, offering flexibility to adapt to different market conditions.
Relative Strength Index (RSI): The RSI is incorporated to provide insight into the momentum of price movements. Users can adjust the RSI length and overbought/oversold levels and even choose the price source for RSI calculation, allowing for tailored momentum analysis. The RSI values influence the cloud color between the Bollinger Bands, signaling market conditions.
Moving Average Crossovers: Two moving averages with customizable lengths and types are used to identify trend direction through crossovers. A fast MA (default 20 periods) and a slow MA (default 50 periods) are plotted when enabled, helping to signal potential bullish or bearish market conditions when they cross over each other.
Functionality:
Bollinger Bands Calculation: The basis of the Bollinger Bands is calculated using a user-defined moving average type, with a customizable length, source, and standard deviation multiplier. The upper and lower bands are then plotted around this basis.
RSI Calculation: The RSI is computed using a user-specified source, length, and overbought/oversold levels. This RSI value is used to determine the color of the cloud between the Bollinger Bands, which visually represents market sentiment:
Purple when RSI is overbought.
Blue when RSI is oversold.
Green for bullish conditions (when the fast MA crosses above the slow MA, RSI is bullish, and the price is above the slow MA).
Red for bearish conditions (when the fast MA crosses below the slow MA, RSI is bearish, and the price is below the slow MA).
Gray for neutral conditions.
Trend Analysis: The indicator uses two moving averages to help determine the trend direction.
When the fast MA crosses over the slow MA, it suggests a potential change in trend direction, which, combined with RSI conditions, provides a more comprehensive trading signal.
Customization:
Users can select the type of moving average for all calculations through the "Global MA Type" setting, ensuring consistency in how trends and volatility are interpreted.
The Bollinger Bands settings allow for adjustments in length, source, standard deviation, and offset, giving traders control over how volatility is measured.
RSI settings include the ability to change the RSI source, length, and overbought/oversold thresholds, which can be fine-tuned to match trading strategies.
The option to show or hide moving averages provides clarity on the chart, focusing on either the Bollinger Bands or including the MA crossovers for trend analysis.
Usage:
This indicator is ideal for traders who incorporate both volatility and momentum in their trading decisions.
By observing the color changes in the cloud, along with the position of the price relative to the moving averages, traders can gauge potential entry and exit points.
For instance, a green cloud with a price above the slow MA might suggest a strong buying opportunity, while a red cloud with a price below might indicate selling pressure.
Conclusion:
The Waldo Cloud Bollinger Bands indicator offers a unique blend of volatility, momentum, and trend analysis, providing traders with a multi-faceted view of market conditions. Its customization options make it adaptable to various trading styles and market environments, making it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit on Trading View.
Relative Strength Index With Range ZoneRSI (Relative Strength Index) with 45-55 Range Zone
1. Introduction and Historical Background
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum indicator developed in 1978 by J. Welles Wilder Jr. It measures the speed and magnitude of price changes to assess overbought and oversold conditions of an asset. This widely used oscillator ranges between 0 and 100.
Historically, the RSI was mainly used to detect trend reversals by identifying extreme levels: above 70 (overbought) and below 30 (oversold). However, its application has evolved, and new approaches refine its interpretation, such as adding a 45-55 neutral zone to identify consolidation (range) periods.
2. RSI Calculation
The RSI is calculated using the following formula:
RSI=100−(1001+RS)RSI=100−(1+RS100)
Where:
RS=Average gain over N periodsAverage loss over N periodsRS=Average loss over N periodsAverage gain over N periods
• RS (Relative Strength) is the ratio between the average gains and the average losses over N periods (typically 14 periods).
• Gains and losses are calculated based on daily price variations.
Example calculation with a 14-day period:
1. Compute daily gains and losses.
2. Take an exponential or simple moving average of these values over 14 days.
3. Apply the formula to get the RSI value.
3. Classic RSI Usage
The RSI is typically interpreted as follows:
• RSI > 70: Overbought → Possible correction or bearish reversal.
• RSI < 30: Oversold → Possible rebound or bullish reversal.
• RSI between 50 and 70: Bullish momentum.
• RSI between 30 and 50: Bearish momentum.
4. Adding the 45-55 Zone to Identify Range Phases
Adding a neutral zone between 45 and 55 helps identify consolidation periods, when price moves sideways without a strong trend.
• RSI between 45 and 55: The market is in a range, meaning neither buyers nor sellers dominate.
• RSI breaking out of this zone:
o Above 55: Indicates the start of a bullish trend.
o Below 45: Indicates the start of a bearish trend.
This zone is particularly useful for:
• Avoiding false signals by waiting for trend confirmation.
• Identifying ranging markets, favoring range trading strategies (buying at support, selling at resistance).
• Filtering trend-based entries, waiting for the RSI to exit the 45-55 zone.
5. Trading Strategies Using RSI with the 45-55 Range Zone
1. Range Trading:
• When the RSI oscillates between 45 and 55, it signals a lack of strong trend.
• Strategy:
o Identify a support and resistance level.
o Buy near support when the RSI touches 45.
o Sell near resistance when the RSI touches 55.
2. Breakout Trading:
• If the RSI exits the 45-55 zone:
o Above 55 → Buy (start of a bullish trend).
o Below 45 → Sell (start of a bearish trend).
• This breakout can be used as a confirmed entry signal.
3. Confirmation with Divergences:
• A bullish divergence (price making lower lows while RSI makes higher lows) is more relevant if the RSI moves above 55.
• A bearish divergence (price making higher highs while RSI makes lower highs) is stronger if the RSI drops below 45.
6. Conclusion
The RSI is a powerful tool for analyzing price momentum. Adding a 45-55 zone enhances its usage by clearly distinguishing:
• Consolidation phases (range markets).
• Trend beginnings when RSI breaks out of this range.
This approach improves RSI reliability by filtering out false signals and allowing traders to adapt their strategy based on market conditions.

Candle Emotion Index (CEI) StrategyThe Candle Emotion Index (CEI) Strategy is an innovative sentiment-based trading approach designed to help traders identify and capitalize on market psychology. By analyzing candlestick patterns and combining them into a unified metric, the CEI Strategy provides clear entry and exit signals while dynamically managing risk. This strategy is ideal for traders looking to leverage market sentiment to identify high-probability trading opportunities.
How It Works
The CEI Strategy is built around three core oscillators that reflect key emotional states in the market:
Indecision Oscillator . Measures market uncertainty using patterns like Doji and Spinning Tops. High values indicate hesitation, signaling potential turning points.
Fear Oscillator . Tracks bearish sentiment through patterns like Shooting Star, Hanging Man, and Bearish Engulfing. Helps identify moments of intense selling pressure.
Greed Oscillator . Detects bullish sentiment using patterns like Marubozu, Hammer, Bullish Engulfing, and Three White Soldiers. Highlights periods of strong buying interest.
These oscillators are averaged into the Candle Emotion Index (CEI):
CEI = (Indecision + Fear + Greed) / 3
This single value quantifies overall market sentiment and drives the strategy’s trading decisions.
Key Features
Sentiment-Based Trading Signals . Long Entry: Triggered when the CEI crosses above a lower threshold (e.g., 0.1), indicating increasing bullish sentiment. Short Entry: Triggered when the CEI crosses above a higher threshold (e.g., 0.2), signaling rising bearish sentiment.
Volume Confirmation . Trades are validated only if volume exceeds a user-defined multiplier of the average volume over the lookback period. This ensures entries are backed by significant market activity.
Break-Even Recovery Mechanism . If a trade moves into a loss, the strategy attempts to recover to break-even instead of immediately exiting at a loss. This feature provides flexibility, allowing the market to recover while maintaining disciplined risk management.
Dynamic Risk Management . Maximum Holding Period: Trades are closed after a user-defined number of candles to avoid overexposure to prolonged uncertainty. Profit-Taking Conditions: Positions are exited when favorable price moves are confirmed by increased volume, locking in gains. Loss Threshold: Trades are exited early if the price moves unfavorably beyond a set percentage of the entry price, limiting potential losses.
Cooldown Period . After a trade is closed, a cooldown period prevents immediate re-entry, reducing overtrading and improving signal quality.
Why Use This Strategy?
The CEI Strategy combines advanced sentiment analysis with robust trade management, making it a powerful tool for traders seeking to understand market psychology and identify high-probability setups. Its unique features, such as the break-even recovery mechanism and volume confirmation, add an extra layer of discipline and reliability to trading decisions.
Best Practices
Combine with Other Indicators . Use trend-following tools (e.g., moving averages, ADX) and momentum oscillators (e.g., RSI, MACD) to confirm signals.
Align with Key Levels . Incorporate support and resistance levels for refined entries and exits.
Multi-Market Compatibility . Apply this strategy to forex, crypto, stocks, or any asset class with strong volume and price action.

Wickiness IndexWickiness Index - Detect Indecision and Trend Exhaustion
The Wickiness Index is a versatile technical indicator designed to measure the proportion of wicks (upper and lower shadows) relative to the total range of price bars over a specified lookback period. It provides insights into market indecision, reversals, and trend exhaustion by analyzing the structural composition of candlesticks. The indicator calculates the lengths of upper and lower wicks along with the body of each candlestick. Each bar's wick length is expressed as a percentage of the total range (High - Low). The ratio is scaled to 0–100, where 100 represents entirely wicks with no body (indicating pure indecision) and 0 represents no wicks with only body (indicating strong directional movement). These values are then averaged over the lookback period (default = 5 bars) to provide a smoothed representation of wickiness, reducing noise and highlighting trends.
A high value, especially above 70, suggests indecision or potential reversals, as candlesticks dominated by wicks often appear near tops or bottoms. Conversely, low values below 30 indicate trend strength and strong momentum, useful for spotting breakouts and trend continuation. Mid-range values between 30 and 70 often indicate consolidation phases or gradual transitions between trends. Traders can adjust the lookback period to match their trading style, with shorter periods offering faster responses and longer periods providing smoother trends.
This indicator is particularly useful for trend reversal detection, breakout confirmation, and volatility filtering. It scales effectively across all timeframes, making it suitable for both intraday traders and long-term investors. When combined with volume analysis or trend-following indicators, the Wickiness Index can further strengthen trade signals. The visual design includes a blue line for the index and horizontal reference lines at 30 and 70, allowing for quick and intuitive interpretation.
The Wickiness Index offers a unique perspective on market sentiment and price action behavior, providing traders with valuable insights into potential turning points, momentum shifts, and market indecision. It is a powerful tool for improving decision-making in volatile markets and identifying areas where price trends may weaken or reverse.

Kalman Trend Strength Index (K-TSI)The Kalman Trend Strength Index (K-TSI) is an innovative technical indicator that combines the Kalman filter with correlation analysis to measure trend strength in financial markets. This sophisticated tool aims to provide traders with a more refined method for trend analysis and market dynamics interpretation.
The use of the Kalman filter is a key feature of the K-TSI. This advanced algorithm is renowned for its ability to extract meaningful signals from noisy data. In financial markets, this translates to smoothing out price action while maintaining responsiveness to genuine market movements. By applying the Kalman filter to price data before performing correlation analysis, the K-TSI potentially offers more stable and reliable trend signals.
The synergy between the Kalman-filtered price data and correlation analysis creates an oscillator that attempts to capture market dynamics more effectively. The correlation component contributes by measuring the strength and consistency of price movements relative to time, while the Kalman filter adds robustness by reducing the impact of market noise. Basing these calculations on Kalman-filtered data may help reduce false signals and provide a clearer picture of underlying market trends.
A notable aspect of the K-TSI is its normalization process. This approach adjusts the indicator's values to a standardized range (-1 to 1), allowing for consistent interpretation across different market conditions and timeframes. This flexibility, combined with the noise-reduction properties of the Kalman filter, positions the K-TSI as a potentially useful tool for various market environments.
In practice, traders might find that the K-TSI offers several potential benefits:
Smoother trend identification, which could aid in detecting the start and end of trends more accurately.
Possibly reduced false signals, particularly in choppy or volatile markets.
Potential for improved trend strength assessment, which might lead to more confident trading decisions.
Consistent performance across different timeframes, due to the adaptive nature of the Kalman filter and the normalization process.
The K-TSI's visual representation as a color-coded histogram further enhances its utility. The changing colors and intensities provide an intuitive way to gauge both the direction and strength of trends, making it easier for traders to quickly assess market conditions.
While the K-TSI builds upon existing concepts in technical analysis, its integration of the Kalman filter with correlation analysis offers traders an interesting tool for market analysis. It represents an attempt to address common challenges in technical analysis, such as noise reduction and trend strength quantification.
As with any technical indicator, the K-TSI should be used as part of a broader trading strategy rather than in isolation. Its effectiveness will depend on how well it aligns with a trader's individual approach and market conditions. For traders looking to explore a more refined trend strength oscillator, the Kalman Trend Strength Index could be a worthwhile addition to their analytical toolkit.
Weighted Average Strength Index (WASI)Weighted Average Strength Index (WASI)
The Weighted Average Strength Index (WASI) is a variation of the standard RSI. It uses the Weighted Moving Average (WMA) instead of the Running Moving Average (RMA), making it more responsive to recent price changes. The hypothesis is that this weighted calculation might better capture momentum shifts, providing traders with more timely insights.
How to Use:
Backtest WASI on your preferred assets and timeframes to evaluate its effectiveness for your strategy.
Use for trend following or mean reversion :
- Overbought/Oversold (OB/OS) levels can signal potential mean-reversion opportunities.
- Midline (50 level) crossovers can be used for trend-following strategies.
- WASI and its moving average (MA) crossovers offer additional trend-following or reversal signals.
Parameters and Their Functions:
WASI Length: Determines the number of periods for WASI calculation. A longer length smooths the indicator but increases lag, while a shorter length makes it more sensitive. (When in doubt, go longer).
Source: The price source for the calculation (e.g., close, open, high, or low).
MA Type: Specifies the type of moving average applied to the WASI (options include SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, and others).
MA Length: The number of periods for the moving average used on the WASI. Higher will lead to a smoother moving average.
Indicator Features:
Dynamic OB/OS Levels: Default overbought (70) and oversold (30) levels help identify potential reversal zones.
Midline Crossover: WASI crossing above or below the 50 level may indicate a trend shift.
WASI-MA Crossover: Crossovers between WASI and its moving average can signal trend-following or mean-reversion opportunities.
Disclaimer:

Ultra Strength IndexThe Ultra Strength Index is a momentum-based indicator designed to enhance price action analysis. It identifies overbought/oversold levels and generates buy/sell signals based on momentum shifts. With customizable smoothing and dynamic updates, it suits both trend-following and reversal strategies.
Introduction
The Ultra Strength Index is a powerful tool designed to help traders analyze price momentum, identify trends, and recognize potential turning points in the market. By combining advanced smoothing techniques and customizable settings, it provides a clear visual representation of overbought/oversold conditions and momentum signals, making it suitable for all trading styles.
Detailed Description
The Ultra Strength Index works by analyzing price momentum and visualizing it through smoothed calculations.
Here's how it works:
.........
Impulse Line
Tracks changes in price momentum using a simple moving average (SMA) of the price change. This line reflects the strength and direction of momentum.
.....
Signal Line
A more stable, smoother version of the impulse line, calculated using a Triple Weigthend Moving Average (TWMA) wich created RedKTrader . It acts as a baseline to compare momentum shifts.
.....
Overbought/Oversold Zones
The indicator detects extreme price conditions using historical momentum levels. These levels are dynamically smoothed over a customizable lookback period to minimize noise and ensure reliability.
.....
Repainting Feature
The "Enable Repaint" option offers real-time updating of overbought/oversold levels for more reactive signals, while disabling it provides the actual level for retrospective analysis.
.....
Buy and Sell Signals
The impulse line crosses into or out of overbought/oversold zones. (Triangle)
The impulse line crosses above or below the signal line, indicating potential momentum shifts. (Diamond)

RSI and Dev Advanced Volatility IndexEnglish Explanation of the "RSI and Dev Advanced Volatility Index" Pine Script Code
Understanding the Code
Purpose:
This Pine Script code creates a custom indicator that combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Deviation (DEV) to provide insights into market volatility.
Key Components:
* Deviation (DEV): Calculates the difference between the closing price and the 10-period simple moving average. This measures the extent to which the price deviates from its recent average, indicating volatility.
* RSI: The traditional RSI is then applied to the calculated deviations. This helps to smooth the data and identify overbought or oversold conditions in terms of volatility.
Calculation Steps:
* Deviation Calculation: The difference between the closing price and its 10-period simple moving average is calculated.
* RSI Calculation: The RSI is calculated on the deviations, providing a measure of the speed and change of volatility relative to recent volatility changes.
* Plotting:
* The RSI of the deviations is plotted on the chart.
* Horizontal lines are plotted at 50, 0, and 110 to visually represent different volatility zones.
* The area between the lines is filled with color to highlight low and high volatility regions.
Interpretation and Usage
* Volatility Analysis:
* High Volatility: When the RSI is above 50, it indicates high volatility, suggesting the market might be in a consolidation or trend reversal phase.
* Low Volatility: When the RSI is below 50, it indicates low volatility, suggesting a relatively calm market.
* Trading Signals:
* Buy Signal: When the RSI crosses above 50 from below, it might signal increasing volatility, which could be a buying opportunity.
* Sell Signal: When the RSI crosses below 50 from above, it might signal decreasing volatility, which could be a selling opportunity.
* Risk Management:
* By monitoring volatility, traders can better manage their risk. During periods of high volatility, traders might reduce their position size or adopt more conservative strategies.
Advantages
* Comprehensive: Combines RSI and DEV for a more holistic view of volatility.
* Sensitivity: Quickly responds to changes in market volatility.
* Visual Clarity: Color-coded zones provide a clear visual representation of different volatility levels.
Limitations
* Parameter Sensitivity: The indicator's performance is sensitive to parameter changes, such as the lookback period for the moving average.
* Lag: Like most technical indicators, it has some lag and might not capture every market movement.
* Not Predictive: It can only indicate current and past volatility, not future movements.
Summary
This custom indicator offers a valuable tool for analyzing market volatility. By combining RSI and DEV, it provides a more nuanced perspective on price fluctuations. However, it should be used in conjunction with other technical indicators and fundamental analysis for more robust trading decisions.
Key points to remember:
* Higher RSI values indicate higher volatility.
* Lower RSI values indicate lower volatility.
* Crossovers of the RSI line above or below 50 can provide potential trading signals.
* The indicator should be used in conjunction with other analysis tools for a more complete picture of the market.

Reversed Choppiness Index with Donchian Channels and SMAIn the chaotic world of trading, where every tick can lead to joy or despair, traders yearn for clarity amid the noise. They crave a mechanism that not only reveals the underlying market trends but also navigates the turbulent waters of volatility with grace. Enter the Reversed Choppiness Index with Donchian Channels and SMA Smoothing—a sophisticated tool crafted for those who refuse to be swayed by the whims of market noise.
This innovative script harnesses the power of the Choppiness Index, flipping it on its head to unveil the true direction of price movement. Choppiness, in its traditional form, indicates when the market is stuck in a sideways range, characterized by erratic price movements that can leave traders bewildered. High choppiness often signals confusion in the market, where prices oscillate without a clear trend, leading to potential losses. Conversely, low choppiness suggests a trending market, whether bullish or bearish, where trades can yield consistent profits. By reversing the Choppiness Index, this tool highlights lower choppiness levels as opportunities for selling when the market shows stability and momentum—perfect for traders looking to enter or exit positions with confidence.
The Donchian Channels serve as reliable markers, defining the boundaries of price action and helping to paint a clearer picture of market dynamics. Traders should look for breakouts from these channels, which may indicate a significant shift in momentum. When the Reversed Choppiness Index trends lower while price breaks above the upper Donchian Band, it may signal a strong buying opportunity, while a rise in choppiness alongside price dipping below the lower band can indicate a potential selling point.
But that's not all—this tool features a dual-layer of smoothing through two distinct Simple Moving Averages (SMAs). The first SMA gently caresses the Reversed Choppiness Index, softening its edges to reveal the underlying trends. The second SMA adds an extra layer of finesse, ensuring traders can spot significant changes with less noise interference.
In a landscape filled with fleeting opportunities and unpredictable swings, this script stands as a beacon of stability. It allows traders to focus on what truly matters—seizing profitable moments without getting caught in the crossfire of volatility. By understanding the dynamics of choppiness through this reversed lens, traders can more effectively navigate their strategies, capitalizing on clearer signals while avoiding the pitfalls of market noise. Embrace this tool and transform the way you trade; the market's whispers will no longer drown out your strategies, paving the way for informed decisions and greater success.
Real Relative Strength Indicator (Multi-Index Comparison)The Real Relative Strength (RRS) indicator implements the "Real Relative Strength" equation, as detailed on the Real Day Trading subreddit wiki. This equation measures whether a stock is outperforming a benchmark (such as SPY or any preferred ETF/index) by calculating price change normalized by the Average True Range (ATR) of both the stock and the indices it’s being compared to.
The RRS metric often highlights potential accumulation by institutional players. For example, in this chart, you can observe accumulation in McDonald’s beginning at 1:25 pm ET on the 5-minute chart and continuing until 2:55 pm ET. When used in conjunction with other indicators or technical analysis, RRS can provide valuable buy and sell signals.
This indicator also supports multi-index analysis, allowing you to plot relative strength against two indices simultaneously—defaulting to SPY and QQQ—to gain insights into the "real relative strength" across different benchmarks. Additionally, this indicator includes an EMA line and background coloring to help automatically identify relative strength trends, providing a clearer visualization than typical Relative Strength Comparison indicators.
TASC 2024.11 Ultimate Strength Index█ OVERVIEW
This script implements the Ultimate Strength Index (USI) indicator, introduced by John Ehlers in his article titled "Ultimate Strength Index (USI)" from the November 2024 edition of TASC's Traders' Tips . The USI is a modified version of Wilder's original Relative Strength Index (RSI) that incorporates Ehlers' UltimateSmoother lowpass filter to produce an output with significantly reduced lag.
█ CONCEPTS
Many technical indicators, including the RSI, lag due to their heavy reliance on historical data. John Ehlers reformulated the RSI to substantially reduce lag by applying his UltimateSmoother filter to upward movements ( strength up - SU ) and downward movements ( strength down - SD ) in the time series, replacing the standard process of smoothing changes with rolling moving averages (RMAs). Ehlers' recent works, covered in our recent script publications, have shown that the UltimateSmoother is an effective alternative to other classic averages, offering notably less lag in its response.
Ehlers also modified the RSI formula to produce an index that ranges from -1 to +1 instead of 0 to 100. As a result, the USI indicates bullish conditions when its value moves above 0 and bearish conditions when it falls below 0.
The USI retains many of the strengths of the traditional RSI while offering the advantage of reduced lag. It generally uses a larger lookback window than the conventional RSI to achieve similar behavior, making it suitable for trend trading with longer data lengths. When applied with shorter lengths, the USI's peaks and valleys tend to align closely with significant turning points in the time series, making it a potentially helpful tool for timing swing trades.
█ CALCULATIONS
The first step in the USI's calculation is determining each bar's strength up (SU) and strength down (SD) values. If the current bar's close exceeds the previous bar's, the calculation assigns the difference to SU. Otherwise, SU is zero. Likewise, if the current bar's close is below the previous bar's, it assigns the difference to SD. Otherwise, SD is zero.
Next, instead of the RSI's typical smoothing process, the USI's calculation applies the UltimateSmoother to the short-term average SU and SD values, reducing high-frequency chop in the series with low lag.
Finally, this formula determines the USI value:
USI = ( Ult (SU) − Ult (SD)) / ( Ult (SU) + Ult (SD)),
where Ult (SU) and Ult (SD) are the smoothed average strength up and strength down values.
Volumatic Variable Index Dynamic Average [BigBeluga]The Volumatic VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average) indicator is a trend-following tool that calculates and visualizes both the current trend and the corresponding buy and sell pressure within each trend phase. Using the Variable Index Dynamic Average as the core smoothing technique, this indicator also plots volume levels of lows and highs based on market structure pivot points, providing traders with key insights into price and volume dynamics.
Additionally, it generates delta volume values to help traders evaluate buy-sell pressure balance during each trend, making it a powerful tool for understanding market sentiment shifts.

🔵 IDEA
The Volumatic VIDYA indicator's core idea is to provide a dynamic, adaptive smoothing tool that identifies trends while simultaneously calculating the volume pressure behind them. The VIDYA line, based on the Variable Index Dynamic Average, adjusts according to the strength of the price movements, offering a more adaptive response to the market compared to standard moving averages.
By calculating and displaying the buy and sell volume pressure throughout each trend, the indicator provides traders with key insights into market participation. The horizontal lines drawn from the highs and lows of market structure pivots give additional clarity on support and resistance levels, backed by average volume at these points. This dual analysis of trend and volume allows traders to evaluate the strength and potential of market movements more effectively.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
VIDYA Calculation:
The Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA) is a special type of moving average that adjusts dynamically to the market’s volatility and momentum. Unlike traditional moving averages that use fixed periods, VIDYA adjusts its smoothing factor based on the relative strength of the price movements, using the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) to capture the magnitude of price changes. When momentum is strong, VIDYA adapts and smooths out price movements quicker, making it more responsive to rapid price changes. This makes VIDYA more adaptable to volatile markets compared to traditional moving averages such as the Simple Moving Average (SMA) or the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which are less flexible.
// VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average) function
vidya_calc(src, vidya_length, vidya_momentum) =>
float momentum = ta.change(src)
float sum_pos_momentum = math.sum((momentum >= 0) ? momentum : 0.0, vidya_momentum)
float sum_neg_momentum = math.sum((momentum >= 0) ? 0.0 : -momentum, vidya_momentum)
float abs_cmo = math.abs(100 * (sum_pos_momentum - sum_neg_momentum) / (sum_pos_momentum + sum_neg_momentum))
float alpha = 2 / (vidya_length + 1)
var float vidya_value = 0.0
vidya_value := alpha * abs_cmo / 100 * src + (1 - alpha * abs_cmo / 100) * nz(vidya_value )
ta.sma(vidya_value, 15)
When momentum is strong, VIDYA adapts and smooths out price movements quicker, making it more responsive to rapid price changes. This makes VIDYA more adaptable to volatile markets compared to traditional moving averages
Triangle Trend Shift Signals:
The indicator marks trend shifts with up and down triangles, signaling a potential change in direction. These signals appear when the price crosses above a VIDYA during an uptrend or crosses below during a downtrend.
Volume Pressure Calculation:
The Volumatic VIDYA tracks the buy and sell pressure during each trend, calculating the cumulative volume for up and down bars. Positive delta volume occurs during uptrends due to higher buy pressure, while negative delta volume reflects higher sell pressure during downtrends. The delta is displayed in real-time on the chart, offering a quick view of volume imbalances.
Market Structure Pivot Lines with Volume Labels:
The indicator draws horizontal lines based on market structure pivots, which are calculated using the highs and lows of price action. These lines are extended on the chart until price crosses them. The indicator also plots the average volume over a 6-bar range to provide a clearer understanding of volume dynamics at critical points.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
VIDYA Length & Momentum: Control the sensitivity of the VIDYA line by adjusting the length and momentum settings, allowing traders to customize the smoothing effect to match their trading style.
Volume Pivot Detection: Set the number of bars to consider for identifying pivots, which influences the calculation of the average volume at key levels.
Band Distance: Adjust the band distance multiplier for controlling how far the upper and lower bands extend from the VIDYA line, based on the ATR (Average True Range).
