Power Hour Breakout Signals [LuxAlgo]The Power Hour Breakout tool helps traders identify key price levels from the Power Hour and spot breakouts from those levels easily. This tool features Power Hour extensions, Fibonacci levels, and session break marks for the trader's convenience.
🔶 USAGE
The Power Hour is defined as the last hour of the trading session and is set by default from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. New York time. During this period, volume and volatility enter the market. Traders using higher timeframes may use this period to enter or exit positions by placing MOC (Market on Close) orders.
This tool highlights the Power Hour and the top and bottom price levels. Each time prices break out from these levels, a signal is displayed on the chart.
We can use the Power Hour to gauge market sentiment:
Bullish sentiment: Price trades above the Power Hour.
Mixed sentiment: Price trades within the Power Hour.
Bearish sentiment: Price trades below the Power Hour.
🔹 Displaying Power Hours and Breakouts
By default, all detected Power Hours are displayed. Traders can manually adjust this number by disabling the "Display All" parameter in the Settings panel.
Breakouts are displayed by default, too, but this feature can be disabled as well.
The chart above shows different configurations of these parameters.
🔹 Power Hour Extensions
Traders can use Power Hour extensions as potential targets for breakout signals.
In the settings panel, traders can select the percentage of the Power Hour price range to use for each extension. For example, 100% uses the full range, 200% uses the range twice, and so on.
As seen on the chart, traders can configure different percentages for the top and bottom extensions.
🔹 Fibonacci Levels
Traders can display default or custom Fibonacci levels on the Power Hour range to identify retracement opportunities and evaluate market movement strength. Each level can be enabled or disabled, as well as customized by level, color, and line style.
For example, as we can see on the chart, prices attempt to break out at the Power Hour top level, then retrace to the 0.618 Fibonacci level, and then rise to the 200% Power Hour top extension.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Last X Power Hours: Select how many Power Hours to display or enable the Display All feature.

Pivot Trend Flow [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Pivot Trend Flow turns raw swing points into a clean, adaptive trend band. It averages recent pivot highs and lows to form two dynamic reference levels; when price crosses above the averaged highs, trend flips bullish and a green band is drawn; when it crosses below the averaged lows, trend flips bearish and a red band is drawn. During an uptrend the script highlights breakouts of previous pivot highs with ▲ labels, and during a downtrend it flags breakdowns of previous pivot lows with ▼ labels—making structure shifts and continuation signals obvious.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Pivot-Based Averages : Recent pivot highs/lows are collected and averaged to create smoothed upper/lower reference levels.
if not na(ph)
phArray.push(ph)
if not na(pl)
plArray.push(pl)
if phArray.size() > avgWindow
upper := phArray.avg()
phArray.shift()
if plArray.size() > avgWindow
lower := plArray.avg()
plArray.shift()
Trend State via Crosses : Close above the averaged-highs ⇒ bullish trend; close below the averaged-lows ⇒ bearish trend.
Trend Band : A colored band (green/red) is plotted and optionally filled to visualize the active regime around price.
Structure Triggers :
In bull mode the tool watches for prior pivot-high breakouts (▲).
In bear mode it watches for prior pivot-low breakdowns (▼).
🔵 FEATURES
Adaptive Trend Detection from averaged pivot highs/lows.
Clear Visuals : Green band in uptrends, red band in downtrends; optional fill for quick read.
Breakout/Breakdown Labels :
▲ marks breaks of previous pivot highs in uptrends
▼ marks breaks of previous pivot lows in downtrends
Minimal Clutter : Uses compact lines and labels that extend only on confirmation.
Customizable Colors & Fill for trend states and band styling.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Pivot Length : Sets how swing points are detected. Smaller = more reactive; larger = smoother.
Avg Window (pivots) : How many recent pivot highs/lows are averaged. Increase to stabilize the band; decrease for agility.
Read the Band :
Green band active ⇒ prioritize longs, pullback buys toward the band.
Red band active ⇒ prioritize shorts, pullback sells toward the band.
Trade the Triggers :
In bull mode, ▲ on a prior pivot-high break can confirm continuation.
In bear mode, ▼ on a prior pivot-low break can confirm continuation.
Combine with Context : Use HTF trend, S/R, or volume for confluence and to filter signals.
Fill Color Toggle : Enable/disable band fill to match your chart style.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Pivot Trend Flow converts swing structure into an actionable, low-lag trend framework. By blending averaged pivots with clean breakout/breakdown labels, it clarifies trend direction, timing, and continuation spots—ideal as a core bias tool or a confirmation layer in any trading system.
RSI Signals Multi-Layer RSI System with Classical Divergence**DrFX RSI Signals Fixed** is an advanced RSI-based trading system that combines duration-filtered extreme conditions with classical divergence detection and momentum confirmation. This enhanced version addresses common RSI false signals through multi-layer filtering while adding proper divergence analysis for identifying high-probability reversal points.
**Core Innovation & Originality**
This indicator uniquely integrates five analytical layers:
1. **Duration-Validated Extreme Zones** - Confirms RSI has remained overbought/oversold for minimum bars within lookback period
2. **Classical Divergence Detection** - Proper implementation comparing swing highs/lows in both price and RSI
3. **Momentum Confirmation Signals** - RSI crossing 50-line after extreme conditions for trend confirmation
4. **Multi-Signal Classification** - Four distinct signal types (Buy, Sell, Strong Buy, Strong Sell, Momentum)
5. **Visual Zone Highlighting** - Background coloring for instant extreme zone identification
**Technical Implementation & Improvements**
**Enhanced Duration Filter:**
Unlike the previous version, this system uses a refined approach:
```
for i = 0 to lookback_bars - 1
if rsi > overbought
barsInOverbought := barsInOverbought + 1
```
This counts actual bars within the lookback period (default 20 bars) where RSI was extreme, requiring minimum duration (default 4 bars) for signal validation.
**Classical Divergence Detection:**
The system implements proper divergence analysis, a significant improvement over simple delta comparison:
**Bullish Divergence Logic:**
- Price makes lower low: `low < prevPriceLow`
- RSI makes higher low: `rsi > prevRsiLow`
- Indicates weakening downward momentum despite lower prices
**Bearish Divergence Logic:**
- Price makes higher high: `high > prevPriceHigh`
- RSI makes lower high: `rsi < prevRsiHigh`
- Indicates weakening upward momentum despite higher prices
**Signal Generation Framework:**
**Primary Signals:**
- **Buy Signal**: RSI crosses above oversold (30) after meeting duration requirements
- **Sell Signal**: RSI crosses below overbought (70) after meeting duration requirements
**Strong Signals:**
- **Strong Buy**: Buy signal + bullish divergence confirmation
- **Strong Sell**: Sell signal + bearish divergence confirmation
**Momentum Signals:**
- **Momentum Buy (M+)**: RSI crosses above 50 after recent oversold conditions
- **Momentum Sell (M-)**: RSI crosses below 50 after recent overbought conditions
**What Makes This Version Superior**
**Compared to Standard RSI:**
1. **Duration Requirement**: Prevents signals on brief RSI spikes
2. **Lookback Validation**: Ensures extreme conditions actually occurred recently
3. **Proper Divergence**: Uses swing high/low comparison, not just bar-to-bar deltas
4. **Momentum Layer**: Adds trend confirmation via 50-line crosses
**Compared to Previous Version:**
1. **Pine Script v5**: Modern syntax with improved performance
2. **Configurable Parameters**: All values adjustable via inputs
3. **Better Divergence**: Classical divergence logic replaces simplified delta method
4. **Additional Signals**: Momentum confirmations for trend following
5. **Visual Enhancements**: Background coloring and improved signal differentiation
6. **Alert System**: Built-in alert conditions for all signal types
**Parameter Configuration**
**Customizable Inputs:**
- **Overbought Level** (70): Upper threshold, range 50-90
- **Oversold Level** (30): Lower threshold, range 10-50
- **RSI Period** (14): Calculation period, range 2-50
- **Minimum Duration** (4): Required bars in extreme zone, range 1-20
- **Lookback Bars** (20): Period to check for extreme conditions, range 5-100
- **Divergence Lookback** (5): Period for divergence swing comparison, range 2-20
**Optimization Guidelines:**
- **Shorter Duration** (2-3): More frequent signals, higher noise
- **Longer Duration** (5-7): Fewer signals, better quality
- **Smaller Lookback** (10-15): Faster response, may miss context
- **Larger Lookback** (30-50): More context, potentially delayed signals
**Signal Interpretation Guide**
**Visual Signal Hierarchy:**
**Light Green Triangle (Buy):**
- RSI recovered from oversold
- Duration requirements met
- Entry on reversal from oversold territory
**Light Red Triangle (Sell):**
- RSI declined from overbought
- Duration requirements met
- Entry on reversal from overbought territory
**Blue Triangle (Strong Buy):**
- Buy signal with bullish divergence
- Highest probability long setup
- Price made lower low, RSI made higher low
**Magenta Triangle (Strong Sell):**
- Sell signal with bearish divergence
- Highest probability short setup
- Price made higher high, RSI made lower high
**Tiny Green Circle (M+):**
- RSI crossed above 50 after oversold
- Momentum confirmation for uptrend
- Secondary entry or trend confirmation
**Tiny Red Circle (M-):**
- RSI crossed below 50 after overbought
- Momentum confirmation for downtrend
- Secondary entry or trend confirmation
**Background Coloring:**
- **Light Red Background**: RSI > 70 (overbought zone)
- **Light Green Background**: RSI < 30 (oversold zone)
**Trading Strategy Application**
**Conservative Approach (Strong Signals Only):**
1. Wait for blue/magenta triangles (divergence confirmed)
2. Enter on signal bar close or next bar open
3. Stop loss beyond recent swing high/low
4. Target minimum 2:1 risk/reward ratio
**Aggressive Approach (All Signals):**
1. Take light green/red triangles for earlier entries
2. Use momentum circles as confirmation
3. Tighter stops with partial profit taking
4. Scale positions based on signal strength
**Momentum Trading:**
1. Use momentum signals (M+/M-) as trend filters
2. Take primary signals aligned with momentum direction
3. Avoid counter-momentum signals in strong trends
4. Exit when opposing momentum signal appears
**Multi-Timeframe Strategy:**
1. Check higher timeframe for strong signals
2. Execute on lower timeframe primary signals
3. Use momentum signals for position management
4. Align all timeframe signals for best probability
**Optimal Market Conditions**
**Best Performance:**
- Mean-reverting markets with clear RSI extremes
- Range-bound or consolidating conditions
- Markets respecting support/resistance levels
- Timeframes: 15min to 4H for active trading
**Strong Signal Advantages:**
- Divergence signals often mark major turning points
- Work well at market structure levels
- Effective in both trending and ranging markets
- Higher success rate justifies waiting for setup
**Momentum Signal Benefits:**
- Confirms trend direction after extreme readings
- Useful for adding to positions
- Helps avoid counter-trend trades
- Works well in trending markets where reversals fail
**Technical Advantages**
**Divergence Accuracy:**
The improved divergence detection uses proper swing analysis rather than simple bar-to-bar comparison. This identifies genuine momentum shifts where price action diverges from oscillator movement over a meaningful period.
**Duration Logic:**
The for-loop counting method ensures the system checks actual RSI values within the lookback period, not just whether RSI touched levels. This distinguishes between sustained conditions and brief spikes.
**Momentum Filter:**
The 50-line crosses after extreme conditions provide an additional confirmation layer, helping traders distinguish between failed reversals (no momentum follow-through) and sustained moves (momentum confirmation).
**Risk Management Integration**
**Signal Priority:**
1. **Highest**: Strong signals with divergence (blue/magenta triangles)
2. **Medium**: Primary signals without divergence (light green/red triangles)
3. **Confirmation**: Momentum signals (tiny circles)
**Position Sizing:**
- Larger positions on strong signals (divergence present)
- Standard positions on primary signals
- Smaller positions or adds on momentum signals
**Stop Placement:**
- Beyond recent swing structure
- Below/above divergence swing low/high for strong signals
- Trail stops when momentum signals align with position
**Alert System**
Built-in alert conditions for:
- Buy Signal: RSI buy without divergence
- Sell Signal: RSI sell without divergence
- Strong Buy Alert: Buy with bullish divergence
- Strong Sell Alert: Sell with bearish divergence
Configure alerts via TradingView's alert system to receive notifications for chosen signal types.
**Important Considerations**
**Strengths:**
- Multiple confirmation layers reduce false signals
- Classical divergence improves reversal detection
- Momentum signals add trend-following capability
- Highly customizable for different trading styles
- No repainting - all signals fixed at bar close
**Limitations:**
- Duration requirements may cause missed quick reversals
- Divergence lookback period affects sensitivity
- Not suitable as standalone system
- Requires understanding of RSI principles and divergence concepts
**Best Practices:**
- Combine with price action and support/resistance
- Use higher timeframe context for directional bias
- Respect overall market trend and structure
- Implement proper position sizing based on signal type
- Test parameters on your specific instrument and timeframe
**Comparison Summary**
This enhanced version represents a significant upgrade:
- Upgraded to Pine Script v5 modern standards
- Proper classical divergence detection (not simplified)
- Added momentum confirmation signals
- Fully customizable parameters via inputs
- Visual background zone highlighting
- Comprehensive alert system
- Better signal differentiation through color coding
The system transforms basic RSI analysis into a multi-dimensional trading tool suitable for various market conditions and trading styles.
**Disclaimer**: This indicator is designed for educational and analytical purposes. While the multi-layer filtering and classical divergence detection improve upon standard RSI implementations, no indicator guarantees profitable trades. The duration filtering reduces false signals but may delay entries. Divergence signals, while statistically favorable, can fail in strong trending conditions. Always use proper risk management, position sizing, and stop-loss orders. Consider multiple confirmation methods and market context before making trading decisions. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Estimated Manipulation Movement Signal [AlgoPoint]Follow the Footprints of Whale Movements That Drive the Market
Overview
The market is not always driven by natural supply and demand. Large players—often called "whales" or institutions—can create artificial price movements to trigger stop-losses, induce panic or FOMO, and build their large positions at favorable prices. These events are known as "stop hunts" or "liquidity grabs."
The EMMS indicator is a specialized tool designed to detect these specific moments of potential market manipulation. It does not follow trends in a traditional sense; instead, it identifies high-probability reversal points created by the calculated actions of Smart Money trapping other market participants.
How It Works: The 3-Module Logic
The indicator uses a multi-stage confirmation process to identify a potential stop hunt:
1. Anomaly Detection: The engine first scans the chart for "Anomaly Candles." These are candles with unusually high volume and a very long wick relative to their body. This combination signals a sudden, forceful, and potentially unnatural price push.
2. Liquidity Zone Detection: The indicator automatically identifies and tracks recent significant swing highs and lows. These levels are considered "Liquidity Zones" because they are areas where a large number of stop-loss orders are likely clustered. These are the "hunting grounds" for whales.
3. The Stop Hunt Signal: A final signal is generated only when these two events align in a specific sequence:
An Anomaly Candle (high volume, long wick) spikes through a previously identified Liquidity Zone.
The same candle then reverses, closing back inside the previous price range.
This sequence confirms that the move was likely a "trap" designed to engineer liquidity, and a reversal in the opposite direction is now highly probable.
How to Interpret & Use This Indicator
BUY Signal: A BUY signal appears after a sharp price drop that pierces a recent swing low (taking out the stops of long positions) and then aggressively reverses to close higher. This suggests that Smart Money has absorbed the panic selling they just induced. The signal indicates a potential move UP.
SELL Signal: A SELL signal appears after a sharp price spike that pierces a recent swing high (taking out the stops of short positions) and then aggressively reverses to close lower. This suggests that Smart Money has sold into the FOMO buying they just created. The signal indicates a potential move DOWN.
This indicator is best used as a high-probability confirmation tool, ideally in conjunction with your understanding of the overall market trend and structure.
Initial Balance Breakout Signals [LuxAlgo]The Initial Balance Breakout Signals help traders identify breakouts of the Initial Balance (IB) range.
The indicator includes automatic detection of IB or can use custom sessions, highlights top and bottom IB extensions, custom Fibonacci levels, and goes further with an IB forecast with two different modes.
🔶 USAGE
The initial balance is the price range made within the first hour of the trading session. It is an intraday concept based on the idea that high volume and volatility enter the market through institutional trading at the start of the session, setting the tone for the rest of the day.
The initial balance is useful for gauging market sentiment, or, in other words, the relationship between buyers and sellers.
Bullish sentiment: Price trades above the IB range.
Mixed sentiment: Price trades within the IB range.
Bearish sentiment: Price trades below the IB range.
The initial balance high and low are important levels that many traders use to gauge sentiment. There are two main ideas behind trading around the IB range.
IB Extreme Breakout: When the price breaks and holds the IB high or low, there is a high probability that the price will continue in that direction.
IB Extreme Rejection: When the price tries to break those levels but fails, there is a high probability that it will reach the opposite IB extreme.
This indicator is a complete Initial Balance toolset with custom sessions, breakout signals, IB extensions, Fibonacci retracements, and an IB forecast. All of these features will be explained in the following sections.
🔹 Custom Sessions and Signals
By default, sessions for Initial Balance and breakout signals are in Auto mode. This means that Initial Balance takes the first hour of the trading session and shows breakout signals for the rest of the session.
With this option, traders can use the tool for open range trading, making it highly versatile. The concept behind open range (OR) is the same as that of initial balance (IB), but in OR, the range is determined by the first minute, three or five minutes, or up to the first 30 minutes of the trading session.
As shown in the image above, the top chart uses the Auto feature for the IB and Breakouts sessions. The bottom chart has the Auto feature disabled to use custom sessions for both parameters. In this case, the first three minutes of the trading session are used, turning the tool into an Open Range trading indicator.
This chart shows another example of using custom sessions to display overnight NASDAQ futures sessions.
The left chart shows a custom session from the Tokyo open to the London open, and the right chart shows a custom session from the London open to the New York open.
The chart shows both the Asian and European sessions, their top and bottom extremes, and the breakout signals from those extremes.
🔹 Initial Balance Extensions
Traders can easily extend both extremes of the Initial Balance to display their preferred targets for breakouts. Enable or disable any of them and set the IB percentage to use for the extension.
As the chart shows, the percentage selected on the settings panel directly affects the displayed levels.
Setting 25 means the tool will use a quarter of the detected initial balance range for extensions beyond the IB extremes. Setting 100 means the full IB range will be used.
Traders can use these extensions as targets for breakout signals.
🔹 Fibonacci Levels
Traders can display default or custom Fibonacci levels on the IB range to trade retracements and assess the strength of market movements. Each level can be enabled or disabled and customized by level, color, and line style.
As we can see on the chart, after the IB was completed, prices were unable to fall below the 0.236 Fibonacci level. This indicates significant bullish pressure, so it is expected that prices will rise.
Traders can use these levels as guidelines to assess the strength of the side trying to penetrate the IB. In this case, the sellers were unable to move the market beyond the first level.
🔹 Initial Balance Forecast
The tool features two different forecasting methods for the current IB. By default, it takes the average of the last ten values and applies a multiplier of one.
IB Against Previous Open: averages the difference between IB extremes and the open of the previous session.
Filter by current day of the week: averages the difference between IB extremes and the open of the current session for the same day of the week.
This feature allows traders to see the difference between the current IB and the average of the last IBs. It makes it very easy to interpret: if the current IB is higher than the average, buyers are in control; if it is lower than the average, sellers are in control.
For example, on the left side of the chart, we can see that the last day was very bullish because the IB was completely above the forecasted value. This is the IB mean of the last ten trading days.
On the right, we can see that on Monday, September 15, the IB traded slightly higher but within the forecasted value of the IB mean of the last ten Mondays. In this case, it is within expectations.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Last X IBs: Select how many IBs to display.
Initial Balance: Choose a custom session or enable the Auto feature.
Breakouts: Enable or disable breakouts. Choose custom session or enable the Auto feature.
🔹 Extensions
Top Extension: Enable or disable the top extension and choose the percentage of IB to use.

- IB Against Previous Open: Calculates the average difference between the IB high and low and the previous day's IB open price.
- Filter by Current Day of Week: Calculates the average difference between the IB high and low and the IB open price for the same day of the week.
Forecast Memory: The number of data points used to calculate the average.
Forecast Multiplier: This multiplier will be applied to the average. Bigger numbers will result in wider predicted ranges.
Forecast Colors: Choose from a variety of colors.
Forecast Style: Choose a line style.
🔹 Style

Extension Transparency: Choose the extension's transparency. 0 is solid, and 100 is fully transparent.
SuperSmoother MA OscillatorSuperSmoother MA Oscillator - Ehlers-Inspired Lag-Minimized Signal Framework
Overview
The SuperSmoother MA Oscillator is a crossover and momentum detection framework built on the pioneering work of John F. Ehlers, who introduced digital signal processing (DSP) concepts into technical analysis. Traditional moving averages such as SMA and EMA are prone to two persistent flaws: excessive lag, which delays recognition of trend shifts, and high-frequency noise, which produces unreliable whipsaw signals. Ehlers’ SuperSmoother filter was designed to specifically address these flaws by creating a low-pass filter with minimal lag and superior noise suppression, inspired by engineering methods used in communications and radar systems.
This oscillator extends Ehlers’ foundation by combining the SuperSmoother filter with multi-length moving average oscillation, ATR-based normalization, and dynamic color coding. The result is a tool that helps traders identify market momentum, detect reliable crossovers earlier than conventional methods, and contextualize volatility and phase shifts without being distracted by transient price noise.
Unlike conventional oscillators, which either oversimplify price structure or overload the chart with reactive signals, the SuperSmoother MA Oscillator is designed to balance responsiveness and stability. By preprocessing price data with the SuperSmoother filter, traders gain a signal framework that is clean, robust, and adaptable across assets and timeframes.
Theoretical Foundation
Traditional MA oscillators such as MACD or dual-EMA systems react to raw or lightly smoothed price inputs. While effective in some conditions, these signals are often distorted by high-frequency oscillations inherent in market data, leading to false crossovers and poor timing. The SuperSmoother approach modifies this dynamic: by attenuating unwanted frequencies, it preserves structural price movements while eliminating meaningless noise.
This is particularly useful for traders who need to distinguish between genuine market cycles and random short-term price flickers. In practical terms, the oscillator helps identify:
Early trend continuations (when fast averages break cleanly above/below slower averages).
Preemptive breakout setups (when compressed oscillator ranges expand).
Exhaustion phases (when oscillator swings flatten despite continued price movement).
Its multi-purpose design allows traders to apply it flexibly across scalping, day trading, swing setups, and longer-term trend positioning, without needing separate tools for each.
The oscillator’s visual system - fast/slow lines, dynamic coloration, and zero-line crossovers - is structured to provide trend clarity without hiding nuance. Strong green/red momentum confirms directional conviction, while neutral gray phases emphasize uncertainty or low conviction. This ensures traders can quickly gauge the market state without losing access to subtle structural signals.
How It Works
The SuperSmoother MA Oscillator builds signals through a layered process:
SuperSmoother Filtering (Ehlers’ Method)
At its core lies Ehlers’ two-pole recursive filter, mathematically engineered to suppress high-frequency components while introducing minimal lag. Compared to traditional EMA smoothing, the SuperSmoother achieves better spectral separation - it allows meaningful cyclical market structures to pass through, while eliminating erratic spikes and aliasing. This makes it a superior preprocessing stage for oscillator inputs.
Fast and Slow Line Construction
Within the oscillator framework, the filtered price series is used to build two internal moving averages: a fast line (short-term momentum) and a slow line (longer-term directional bias). These are not plotted directly on the chart - instead, their relationship is transformed into the oscillator values you see.
The interaction between these two internal averages - crossovers, separation, and compression - forms the backbone of trend detection:
Uptrend Signal : Fast MA rises above the slow MA with expanding distance, generating a positive oscillator swing.
Downtrend Signal : Fast MA falls below the slow MA with widening divergence, producing a negative oscillator swing.
Neutral/Transition : Lines compress, flattening the oscillator near zero and often preceding volatility expansion.
This design ensures traders receive the information content of dual-MA crossovers while keeping the chart visually clean and focused on the oscillator’s dynamics.
ATR-Based Normalization
Markets vary in volatility. To ensure the oscillator behaves consistently across assets, ATR (Average True Range) normalization scales outputs relative to prevailing volatility conditions. This prevents the oscillator from appearing overly sensitive in calm markets or too flat during high-volatility regimes.
Dynamic Color Coding
Color transitions reflect underlying market states:
Strong Green : Bullish alignment, momentum expanding.
Strong Red : Bearish alignment, momentum expanding.
These visual cues allow traders to quickly gauge trend direction and strength at a glance, with expanding colors indicating increasing conviction in the underlying momentum.
Interpretation
The oscillator offers a multi-dimensional view of price dynamics:
Trend Analysis : Fast/slow line alignment and zero-line interactions reveal trend direction and strength. Expansions indicate momentum building; contractions flag weakening conditions or potential reversals.
Momentum & Volatility : Rapid divergence between lines reflects increasing momentum. Compression highlights periods of reduced volatility and possible upcoming expansion.
Cycle Awareness : Because of Ehlers’ DSP foundation, the oscillator captures market cycles more cleanly than conventional MA systems, allowing traders to anticipate turning points before raw price action confirms them.
Divergence Detection : When oscillator momentum fades while price continues in the same direction, it signals exhaustion - a cue to tighten stops or anticipate reversals.
By focusing on filtered, volatility-adjusted signals, traders avoid overreacting to noise while gaining early access to structural changes in momentum.
Strategy Integration
The SuperSmoother MA Oscillator adapts across multiple trading approaches:
Trend Following
Enter when fast/slow alignment is strong and expanding:
A fast line crossing above the slow line with expanding green signals confirms bullish continuation.
Use ATR-normalized expansion to filter entries in line with prevailing volatility.
Breakout Trading
Periods of compression often precede breakouts:
A breakout occurs when fast lines diverge decisively from slow lines with renewed green/red strength.
Exhaustion and Reversals
Oscillator divergence signals weakening trends:
Flattening momentum while price continues trending may indicate overextension.
Traders can exit or hedge positions in anticipation of corrective phases.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Apply the oscillator on higher timeframes to confirm the directional bias.
Use lower timeframes for refined entries during compression → expansion transitions.
Technical Implementation Details
SuperSmoother Algorithm (Ehlers) : Recursive two-pole filter minimizes lag while removing high-frequency noise.
Oscillator Framework : Fast/slow MAs derived from filtered prices.
ATR Normalization : Ensures consistent amplitude across market regimes.
Dynamic Color Engine : Aligns visual cues with structural states (expansion and contraction).
Multi-Factor Analysis : Combines crossover logic, volatility context, and cycle detection for robust outputs.
This layered approach ensures the oscillator is highly responsive without overloading charts with noise.
Optimal Application Parameters
Asset-Specific Guidance:
Forex : Normalize with moderate ATR scaling; focus on slow-line confirmation.
Equities : Balance responsiveness with smoothing; useful for capturing sector rotations.
Cryptocurrency : Higher ATR multipliers recommended due to volatility.
Futures/Indices : Lower frequency settings highlight structural trends.
Timeframe Optimization:
Scalping (1-5min) : Higher sensitivity, prioritize fast-line signals.
Intraday (15m-1h) : Balance between fast/slow expansions.
Swing (4h-Daily) : Focus on slow-line momentum with fast-line timing.
Position (Daily-Weekly) : Slow lines dominate; fast lines highlight cycle shifts.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Trending environments with moderate-to-high volatility.
Assets with steady liquidity and clear cyclical structures.
Reduced Effectiveness:
Flat/choppy conditions with little directional bias.
Ultra-short timeframes (<1m), where noise dominates.
Integration Guidelines
Confluence : Combine with liquidity zones, order blocks, and volume-based indicators for confirmation.
Risk Management : Place stops beyond slow-line thresholds or ATR-defined zones.
Dynamic Trade Management : Use expansions/contractions to scale position sizes or tighten stops.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : Filter lower-timeframe entries with higher-timeframe momentum states.
Disclaimer
The SuperSmoother MA Oscillator is an advanced trend and momentum analysis tool, not a guaranteed profit system. Its effectiveness depends on proper parameter settings per asset and disciplined risk management. Traders should use it as part of a broader technical framework and not in isolation.
Pairs Trading Scanner [BackQuant]Pairs Trading Scanner
What it is
This scanner analyzes the relationship between your chart symbol and a chosen pair symbol in real time. It builds a normalized “spread” between them, tracks how tightly they move together (correlation), converts the spread into a Z-Score (how far from typical it is), and then prints clear LONG / SHORT / EXIT prompts plus an at-a-glance dashboard with the numbers that matter.
Why pairs at all?
Markets co-move. When two assets are statistically related, their relationship (the spread) tends to oscillate around a mean.
Pairs trading doesn’t require calling overall market direction you trade the relative mispricing between two instruments.
This scanner gives you a robust, visual way to find those dislocations, size their significance, and structure the trade.
How it works (plain English)
Step 1 Pick a partner: Select the Pair Symbol to compare against your chart symbol. The tool fetches synchronized prices for both.
Step 2 Build a spread: Choose a Spread Method that defines “relative value” (e.g., Log Spread, Price Ratio, Return Difference, Price Difference). Each lens highlights a different flavor of divergence.
Step 3 Validate relationship: A rolling Correlation checks if the pair is moving together enough to be tradable. If correlation is weak, the scanner stands down.
Step 4 Standardize & score: The spread is normalized (mean & variability over a lookback) to form a Z-Score . Large absolute Z means “stretched,” small means “near fair.”
Step 5 Signals: When the Z-Score crosses user-defined thresholds with sufficient correlation , entries print:
LONG = long chart symbol / short pair symbol,
SHORT = short chart symbol / long pair symbol,
EXIT = mean reversion into the exit zone or correlation failure.
Core concepts (the three pillars)
Spread Method Your definition of “distance” between the two series.
Guidance:
Log Spread: Focuses on proportional differences; robust when prices live on different scales.
Price Ratio: Classic relative value; good when you care about “X per Y.”
Return Difference: Emphasizes recent performance gaps; nimble for momentum-to-mean plays.
Price Difference: Straight subtraction; intuitive for similar-scale assets (e.g., two ETFs).
Correlation A rolling score of co-movement. The scanner requires it to be above your Min Correlation before acting, so you’re not trading random divergence.

Signals logic (plain English)
Entry (LONG): The spread is unusually negative (chart cheaper vs pair) and correlation is healthy. Expect mean reversion upward in the spread: long chart, short pair.
Entry (SHORT): The spread is unusually positive (chart richer vs pair) and correlation is healthy. Expect mean reversion downward in the spread: short chart, long pair.
Exit: The spread relaxes back toward normal (inside your exit band), or correlation deteriorates (relationship no longer trusted).
A quick, repeatable workflow
1) Choose your pair in context (same sector/theme or known macro link). Think: “Do these two plausibly co-move?”
2) Pick a spread lens that matches your narrative (ratio for relative value, returns for short-term performance gaps, etc.).
3) Confirm correlation is above your floor no corr, no trade.
4) Wait for a stretch (Z beyond Entry band) and a printed LONG / SHORT .
5) Manage to the mean (EXIT band) or correlation failure; let the scanners’ state/labels keep you honest.
Settings that matter (and why)
Spread Method Defines the “mispricing” you care about.
Correlation Period Longer = steadier regime read, shorter = snappier to regime change.
Z-Score Period The window that defines “normal” for the spread; it sets the yardstick.
Use Percentage Returns Normalizes series when using return-based logic; keep on for mixed-scale assets.
Entry / Exit Thresholds Set your stretch and your target reversion zone. Wider entries = rarer but stronger signals.
Minimum Correlation The gatekeeper. Raising it favors quality over quantity.
Choosing pairs (practical cheat sheet)
Same family: two index ETFs, two oil-linked names, two gold miners, two L1 tokens.
Hedge & proxy: stock vs. sector ETF, BTC vs. BTC index, WTI vs. energy ETF.
Cross-venue or cross-listing: instruments that are functionally the same exposure but price differently intraday.
Reading the cues like a pro
Divergence shape: The yellow normalized spread helps you see rhythm fast spike and snap-back versus slow grind.
Corr-first discipline: Don’t fight the “Min Correlation” line. Good pairs trading starts with a relationship you can trust.
Exit humility: When Z re-centers, let the EXIT do its job. The edge is the journey to the mean, not overstaying it.
Frequently asked (quick answers)
“Long/Short means what exactly?”
LONG = long the chart symbol and short the pair symbol.
SHORT = short the chart symbol and long the pair symbol.
“Do I need same price scales?” No. The spread methods normalize in different ways; choose the one that fits your use case (log/ratio are great for mixed scales).
“What if correlation falls mid-trade?” The scanner will neutralize the state and print EXIT . Relationship first; trade second.
Field notes & patterns
Snap-back days: After a one-sided session, return-difference spreads often flag cleaner intraday mean reversions.
Macro rotations: Ratio spreads shine during sector re-weights (e.g., value vs. growth ETFs); look for steady corr + elevated |Z|.
Event bleed-through: If one symbol reacts to news and its partner lags, Z often flags a high-quality, short-horizon re-centering.

The scanner is designed to keep you systematic: require relationship (correlation), quantify dislocation (Z-Score), act when stretched, stand down when it normalizes or the relationship degrades. It’s a full, visual loop for relative-value trading that stays out of your way when it should and gets loud only when the numbers line up.
Trend ChannelThis Trend Channel is designed to simplify how traders view trends, while also keeping track of potential shifts in trends with signals. It is designed for traders that prefer less over more.
The indicator can be used for trend following, trend reversals and confirmation in combination with price or other indicators.
At the core is one EMA and a smoothed volatility based channel around it.
The purpose of the channel is to avoid false signals on trend reclaim or trend loss and instead identify trend deviations.
The indicator also incorporates long and short EMA cross-over signals to recognize possible shifts in trend without having to overlay multiple EMAs and keep the chart cleaner.
Additionally the indicator fires warnings for potential false signals on golden/death crosses with a letter "W" above/below the signal candle. Those warnings are based on the distance between price and the crossover. When the distance is above a certain threshold the indicator fires a warning that price might mean revert.
Traders can customize all inputs in the settings.
Rally Base Drop Signals [LuxAlgo]The Rally Base Drop indicator is built around the Supply and Demand (SND) concept known as "Rally, Base & Drop" Candles. These candle types are commonly used in this trading approach to identify price structure.
This indicator highlights bars by labeling them as "Rally," "Drop," or "Base" candles. It also identifies specific sequence patterns formed by these candles.
🔶 USAGE
The Rally, Base, Drop candlestick approach is a straightforward method for identifying price action structure.
Candles are categorized into three types, which are then analyzed to understand market structure and Supply/Demand levels.
Rally: Two or more consecutive bullish candles.
Drop: Two or more consecutive bearish candles.
Base: A single bullish or bearish candle that breaks the previous trend.
🔹 Rally & Drop Candles
These candles show clear directional momentum and signal whether demand or supply is dominating. They are helpful when identifying trends, as they highlight strong price movement.
🔹 Base Candles
In most SND strategies, "Base" can have several interpretations.
Typically, base candles represent short periods of consolidation that test the trend before continuation. They can also be found at turning points (tops or bottoms).
For this indicator, a base candle is simply one that does not follow the direction of nearby candles or is where a Drop and Rally meet. Multiple base candles often reflect indecision in the market, suggesting a temporary balance between buyers and sellers.
🔹 Reversal Sequences
Rally-Base-Drop (RBD)
Drop-Base-Rally (DBR)
In Supply and Demand analysis, these sequences are considered reversals. They mark zones where buyer and seller activity has shifted, which can lead to future price reactions. These areas are known as "Supply or Demand Zones" and are often revisited by price, making them useful for trade setups.
🔹 Continuation Sequences
Rally-Base-Rally (RBR)
Drop-Base-Drop (DBD)
Continuation sequences show a brief pause in the trend, followed by further movement in the same direction. In SND terms, they represent zones where orders accumulate before a continuation move. These are typically used to join ongoing trends, as they indicate sustained interest from buyers or sellers.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Color Modes
The script includes three color modes. "No Color" is self-explanatory, while the other two options relate to how candles are detected.
A Rally or Drop requires at least two candles to be successfully identified. As a result, detection occurs on the second candle. However, the full Rally or Drop includes both candles.
Two coloring methods are available:
Full Color: Once a Rally or Drop is detected (on the second bar), both candles are colored, starting from the first. This reflects the full pattern.
Color on Detection: Only the second candle (where detection occurs) is colored. This avoids changing past bars and may be useful for live analysis.
🔶 SETTINGS
Sequences: Select which sequences to display on the chart.
Bar Color Logic: Choose the preferred bar coloring method.

Cyclic Reversal Engine [AlgoPoint]Overview
Most indicators focus on price and momentum, but they often ignore a critical third dimension: time. Markets move in rhythmic cycles of expansion and contraction, but these cycles are not fixed; they speed up in trending markets and slow down in choppy conditions.
The Cyclic Reversal Engine is an advanced analytical tool designed to decode this rhythm. Instead of relying on static, lagging formulas, this indicator learns from past market behavior to anticipate when the current trend is statistically likely to reach its exhaustion point, providing high-probability reversal signals.
It achieves this by combining a sophisticated time analysis with a robust price-action confirmation.
How It Works: The Core Logic
The indicator operates on a multi-stage process to identify potential turning points in the market.
1. Market Regime Analysis (The Brain): Before analyzing any cycles, the indicator first diagnoses the current "personality" of the market. Using a combination of the ADX, Choppiness Index, and RSI, it classifies the market into one of three primary regimes:
- Trending: Strong, directional movement.
- Ranging: Sideways, non-directional chop.
- Reversal: An over-extended state (overbought/oversold) where a turn is imminent.
2. Adaptive Cycle Learning (The "Machine Learning" Aspect): This is the indicator's smartest feature. It constantly analyzes past cycles by measuring the bar-count between significant swing highs and swing lows. Crucially, it learns the average cycle duration for each specific market regime. For example, it learns that "in a strong trending market, a new swing low tends to occur every 35 bars," while "in a ranging market, this extends to 60 bars."
3. The Countdown & Timing Signal: The indicator identifies the last major swing high or low and starts a bar-by-bar countdown. Based on the current market regime, it selects the appropriate learned cycle length from its memory. When the bar count approaches this adaptive target, the indicator determines that a reversal is "due" from a timing perspective.
4. Price Confirmation (The Trigger): A signal is never generated based on timing alone. Once the timing condition is met (the cycle is "due"), the indicator waits for a final price-action confirmation. The default confirmation is the RSI entering an extreme overbought or oversold zone, signaling momentum exhaustion. The signal is only triggered when Time + Price Confirmation align.
How to Use This Indicator
- The Dashboard: The panel in the bottom-right corner is your command center.
- Market Regime: Shows the current market personality analyzed by the engine.
- Adaptive Cycle / Bar Count: This is the core of the indicator. It shows the target cycle length for the current regime (e.g., 50) and the current bar count since the last swing point (e.g., 45). The background turns orange when the bar count enters the "due zone," indicating that you should be on high alert for a reversal.
- BUY/SELL Signals: A label appears on the chart only when the two primary conditions are met:
The timing is right (Bar Count has reached the Adaptive Cycle target).
The price confirms exhaustion (RSI is in an extreme zone).
A BUY signal suggests a downtrend cycle is likely complete, and a SELL signal suggests an uptrend cycle is likely complete.
Key Settings
- Pivot Lookback: Controls the sensitivity of the swing point detection. Higher values will identify more significant, longer-term cycles.
- Market Regime Engine: The ADX, Choppiness, and RSI settings can be fine-tuned to adjust how the indicator classifies the market's personality.
- Require Price Confirmation: You can toggle the RSI confirmation on or off. It is highly recommended to keep it enabled for higher-quality signals.
Momentum Index [BigBeluga]The Momentum Index is an innovative indicator designed to measure the momentum of price action by analyzing the distribution of positive and negative momentum values over a defined period. By incorporating delta-based calculations and smoothing techniques, it provides traders with a clear and actionable representation of market momentum dynamics.
🔵 Key Features:
Delta-Based Momentum Analysis:
Calculates the momentum of price by comparing its current state to its value from a defined number of bars back.
Inside a loop, it evaluates whether momentum values are above or below zero, producing a delta value that reflects the net momentum direction and intensity.
Double EMA Smoothing:
Smooths the raw delta-based momentum values with a double EMA filter, reducing noise and providing a clearer trend signal.
tmi(len) =>
sum = 0.0
sum1 = 0.0
above = 0.0
below = 0.0
src_ = src - src
for i = 0 to len
sum := sum + (src_ > nz(src_ ) ? 1 : -1)
sum1 := sum1 + (sum > 0 ? 1 : -1)
sum1 := emaEma(sum1, 10)
for i = 1 to len
above := above + (sum1 > 0 ? 1 : 0)
below := below + (sum1 > 0 ? 0 : 1)
Directional Momentum Signals:
Generates momentum shift signals and displays them on both the oscillator and the main chart:
- △ Aqua Triangles: Represent upward momentum shifts.
- ▽ Red Triangles: Represent downward momentum shifts.
Dynamic Gradient Display:
Highlights momentum zones with gradient fills:
- Aqua shades for positive momentum (above zero).
- Red shades for negative momentum (below zero).
Dashboard Display:
A dashboard summarizing the count of momentum values above and below zero for the defined period (Sentiment Length e.g. 100), helping traders assess market sentiment at a glance.
🔵 How It Works:
The indicator takes price momentum as its source and evaluates the number of momentum values above and below zero within a defined period.
The delta calculation aggregates this information, providing a net representation of the prevailing market momentum.
A double EMA filter is applied to the delta values, smoothing the momentum line and enhancing signal clarity.
Momentum shifts are highlighted with visual signals on the oscillator and price chart, while the gradient display provides a visual representation of intensity.
🔵 Use Cases:
Momentum Tracking: Identify whether market momentum is predominantly bullish or bearish.
Signal Confirmation: Use chart-based signals to confirm potential trend reversals or continuation.
Analyze Market Strength: Leverage the dashboard to quickly assess the distribution of momentum over the chosen period.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Utilize gradient zones to detect areas of momentum extremes and possible price exhaustion.
Momentum Index offers a refined approach to analyzing momentum dynamics, combining delta-based calculations with smoothing techniques and intuitive visuals, making it an essential tool for traders looking to anticipate market movements effectively.
Sequential Pattern Strength [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Sequential Pattern Strength indicator measures the power and sustainability of consecutive price movements by tracking unbroken sequences of up or down closes. It incorporates sequence quality assessment, price extension analysis, and automatic exhaustion detection to help traders identify when strong trends are losing momentum and approaching potential reversal or continuation points.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's key insight lies in its sequential pattern tracking system, where pattern strength is measured by analyzing consecutive price movements and their sustainability:
if close > close
upSequence := upSequence + 1
downSequence := 0
else if close < close
downSequence := downSequence + 1
upSequence := 0
The system calculates sequence quality by measuring how "perfect" the consecutive moves are:
perfectMoves = math.max(upSequence, downSequence)
totalMoves = math.abs(bar_index - ta.valuewhen(upSequence == 1 or downSequence == 1, bar_index, 0))
sequenceQuality = totalMoves > 0 ? perfectMoves / totalMoves : 1.0
First, it tracks price extension from the sequence starting point:
priceExtension = (close - sequenceStartPrice) / sequenceStartPrice * 100
Then, pattern exhaustion is identified when sequences become overextended:
isExhausted = math.abs(currentSequence) >= maxSequence or
math.abs(priceExtension) > resetThreshold * math.abs(currentSequence)
Finally, the pattern strength combines sequence length, quality, and price movement with momentum enhancement:
patternStrength = currentSequence * sequenceQuality * (1 + math.abs(priceExtension) / 10)
enhancedSignal = patternStrength + momentum * 10
signal = ta.ema(enhancedSignal, smooth)
This creates a sequence-based momentum indicator that combines consecutive movement analysis with pattern sustainability assessment, providing traders with both directional signals and exhaustion insights for entry/exit timing.
🟢 Signal Interpretation
Positive Values (Above Zero): Sequential pattern strength indicating bullish momentum with consecutive upward price movements and sustained buying pressure = Long/Buy opportunities
Negative Values (Below Zero): Sequential pattern strength indicating bearish momentum with consecutive downward price movements and sustained selling pressure = Short/Sell opportunities
Zero Line Crosses: Pattern transitions between bullish and bearish regimes, indicating potential trend changes or momentum shifts when sequences break
Upper Threshold Zone: Area above maximum sequence threshold (2x maxSequence) indicating extremely strong bullish patterns approaching exhaustion levels
Lower Threshold Zone: Area below negative threshold (-2x maxSequence) indicating extremely strong bearish patterns approaching exhaustion levels

The Trending Signals Mode serves as the primary trend-following mechanism, combining Wave Trend Oscillator analysis with Supertrend directional signals and Squeeze Momentum breakout detection. This mode incorporates ADX filtering that requires values exceeding 20 to ensure sufficient trend strength exists before signal activation, making it particularly effective during sustained directional market movements where momentum persistence creates profitable trading opportunities.
The Contrarian Signals Mode provides an alternative approach targeting reversal opportunities through extreme market condition identification. This mode activates when the Wave Trend Oscillator reaches critical threshold levels, specifically when readings surpass 65 indicating potential bearish reversal conditions or drop below 35 suggesting bullish reversal opportunities. This methodology proves valuable during overextended market phases where mean reversion becomes statistically probable.
Advanced Filtering Mechanisms
The system incorporates multiple sophisticated filtering mechanisms designed to enhance signal quality and reduce false positive occurrences. The High Volume Filter requires volume expansion confirmation before signal activation, utilizing exponential moving average calculations to ensure institutional participation accompanies price movements. This filter substantially improves signal reliability by eliminating low-conviction breakouts that lack adequate volume support from professional market participants.
The Strong Filter provides additional trend confirmation through 200-period exponential moving average analysis. Long position signals require price action above this benchmark level, while short position signals necessitate price action below it. This ensures strategic alignment with longer-term trend direction and reduces the probability of trading against major market movements that could invalidate shorter-term signals.
Cloud Filter Configuration System
The Fresh Algo V24 offers four distinct cloud filter configurations, each optimized for specific trading timeframes and market approaches. The Smooth Cloud Filter utilizes the mathematical relationship between 150-period and 250-period exponential moving averages, providing stable trend identification suitable for position trading strategies. This configuration generates signals exclusively when price action aligns with cloud direction, creating a more deliberate but highly reliable signal generation process.
The Swing Cloud Filter employs modified Supertrend calculations with parameters specifically optimized for swing trading timeframes. This filter achieves optimal balance between responsiveness and stability, adapting effectively to medium-term price movements while filtering excessive market noise that typically affects shorter-term analytical systems.
For active intraday traders, the Scalping Cloud Filter utilizes accelerated Supertrend calculations designed to capture rapid trend changes effectively. This configuration provides enhanced signal generation frequency suitable for compressed timeframe strategies. The advanced Scalping+ Cloud Filter incorporates Hull Moving Average confirmation, delivering maximum responsiveness for ultra-short-term trading while maintaining signal quality through additional momentum validation processes.
Specialized Assistant Functionality
The system includes two distinct assistant modes that provide supplementary market analysis capabilities. The Trend Assistant Mode activates advanced cloud analysis overlays that display dynamic support and resistance zones calculated through adaptive volatility algorithms. These levels automatically adjust to current market conditions, providing visual guidance for identifying trend continuation patterns and potential reversal areas with mathematical precision.
The Trend Tracker Mode concentrates on long-term trend identification by displaying major exponential moving averages with color-coded fill areas that clarify directional bias. This mode maintains visual simplicity while providing comprehensive trend context evaluation, enabling traders to quickly assess broader market direction and align shorter-term strategies accordingly.
Dynamic Risk Management System
The integrated risk management system automatically adapts across all operational modes, calculating stop loss and take profit targets using Average True Range multiples that adjust to current market volatility. This approach ensures consistent risk parameters regardless of selected operational mode while maintaining relevance to prevailing market conditions.
Stop loss placement occurs at dynamically calculated distances from entry points, while three progressive take profit targets establish at customizable ATR multiples respectively. The system automatically updates these levels upon trend direction changes, ensuring current market volatility influences all risk calculations and maintains appropriate risk-reward ratios throughout trade management.
Comprehensive Market Analysis Dashboard
The sophisticated dashboard provides real-time market analysis including volatility measurements, institutional activity assessment, and multi-timeframe trend evaluation across five-minute through four-hour periods. This comprehensive market context assists traders in selecting appropriate operational modes based on current market characteristics rather than relying exclusively on historical performance data.
The multi-timeframe analysis ensures mode selection considers broader market context beyond the primary trading timeframe, improving overall strategic alignment and reducing conflicts between different temporal market perspectives. The dashboard displays market state classification, volatility percentages, institutional activity levels, current trading session information, and trend pressure indicators with professional formatting and clear visual hierarchy.
Enhanced Trading Assistants
The Fresh Algo V24 includes specialized trading assistant features that complement the primary signal generation system. The Reversal Dot functionality identifies potential reversal points through Wave Trend Oscillator analysis, displaying visual indicators when crossover conditions occur at extreme levels. These reversal indicators provide early warning signals for potential trend changes before they appear in the primary signal system.
The Dynamic Take Profit Labels feature automatically identifies optimal profit-taking opportunities through RSI threshold analysis, marking potential exit points at multiple levels for long positions and corresponding levels for short positions. This automated profit management system helps traders optimize exit timing without requiring constant manual monitoring of technical indicators.
Advanced Alert System
The comprehensive alert system accommodates all operational modes while providing granular notification control for various signal types and risk management events. Traders can configure separate alerts for normal buy signals, strong buy signals, normal sell signals, strong sell signals, stop loss triggers, and individual take profit target achievements.
Cloud crossover alerts notify traders when trend direction changes occur, providing early indication of potential strategy adjustments. The alert system includes detailed trade setup information, timeframe data, and relevant entry and exit levels, ensuring traders receive complete context for informed decision-making without requiring constant chart monitoring.
Technical Foundation Architecture
The Fresh Algo V24 combines multiple proven technical analysis components including Wave Trend Oscillator for momentum assessment, Supertrend for directional bias determination, Squeeze Momentum for volatility analysis, and various exponential moving averages for trend confirmation. Each component contributes specific market insights while the unified system provides comprehensive market evaluation through their mathematical integration.
The multi-component approach reduces dependency on individual indicator limitations while leveraging the analytical strengths of each technical tool. This creates a robust analytical framework capable of adapting to diverse market conditions through appropriate mode selection and parameter optimization, ensuring consistent performance across varying market environments.
Market State Classification
The indicator incorporates advanced market state classification through ADX analysis, distinguishing between trending, ranging, and transitional market conditions. This classification system automatically adjusts signal sensitivity and filtering parameters based on current market characteristics, optimizing performance for prevailing conditions rather than applying static analytical approaches.
The volatility measurement system calculates current market activity levels as percentages, providing quantitative assessment of market energy and helping traders select appropriate operational modes. Institutional activity detection through volume analysis ensures signal generation aligns with professional market participation patterns.
Implementation Strategy Considerations
Successful implementation requires careful matching of operational modes to prevailing market conditions and individual trading objectives. Trending modes demonstrate optimal performance during directional markets with sustained momentum characteristics, while contrarian modes excel during range-bound or overextended market conditions where reversal probability increases.
The cloud filter configurations provide varying degrees of confirmation strength, with smoother settings reducing false signal occurrence at the expense of some responsiveness to price changes. Traders must balance signal quality against signal frequency based on their risk tolerance and available trading time, utilizing the comprehensive customization options to optimize performance for their specific requirements.

Zero Lag Liquidity [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script plots liquidity zones with zero lag using lower-timeframe wick profiles and high-volume wicks to mark key price reactions. It’s called Zero Lag Liquidity because it captures significant liquidity imbalances in real time by processing lower-TF price-volume distributions directly inside the wick of abnormal candles. The tool builds a volume histogram inside long upper/lower wicks, then calculates a local Point of Control (POC) to mark the price where most volume occurred. These levels act as visual liquidity zones, which can trigger labels, break signals, and trend detection depending on price interaction.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The core concept relies on identifying high-volume candles with unusually long wicks—often a sign of opposing liquidity. When a large upper or lower wick appears with a strong volume spike, the script builds a histogram of lower-timeframe closes and volumes inside that wick. It bins the wick into segments, sums volume per bin, and finds the POC. This POC becomes the liquidity level. The script then dynamically tracks whether price breaks above or rejects off these levels, adjusts the active trend regime accordingly, and highlights bars to help users spot continuation or reversal behavior. The logic avoids repainting or subjective interpretation by using fixed thresholds and lower-TF price action.
🟠 FEATURES
Dynamic liquidity levels rendered at POC of significant wicks, colored by bullish/bearish direction.
Break detection that removes levels once price decisively crosses them twice in the same direction.
Rejection detection that plots ▲/▼ markers when price bounces off levels intrabar.
Volume labels for each level, shown either as raw volume or percentage of total level volume.
Candle coloring based on trend direction (break-dominant).
🟠 USAGE
Use this indicator to track where liquidity has most likely entered the market via abnormal wick events. When a long wick forms with high volume, the script looks inside it (using your chosen lower timeframe) and marks the most traded price within it. These levels can serve as expected reversal or breakout zones. Rejections are marked with small arrows, while breaks trigger trend shifts and remove the level. You can toggle trend coloring to see directional bias after a breakout. Use the wick multiplier to control how selective the detector is (higher = stricter). Alerts and label modes help customize the signal for different asset types and chart styles.
On-Chain Signals [LuxAlgo]The On-Chain Signals indicator uses fundamental blockchain metrics to provide traders with an objective technical view of their favorite cryptocurrencies.
It uses IntoTheBlock datasets integrated within TradingView to generate four key signals: Net Network Growth, In the Money, Concentration, and Large Transactions.
Together, these four signals provide traders with an overall directional bias of the market. All of the data can be visualized as a gauge, table, historical plot, or average.
🔶 USAGE
The main goal of this tool is to provide an overall directional bias based on four blockchain signals, each with three possible biases: bearish, neutral, or bullish. The thresholds for each signal bias can be adjusted on the settings panel.
These signals are based on IntoTheBlock's On-Chain Signals.
Net network growth: Change in the total number of addresses over the last seven periods; i.e., how many new addresses are being created.
In the Money: Change in the seven-period moving average of the total supply in the money. This shows how many addresses are profitable.
Concentration: Change in the aggregate addresses of whales and investors from the previous period. These are addresses holding at least 0.1% of the supply. This shows how many addresses are in the hands of a few.
Large Transactions: Changes in the number of transactions over $100,000. This metric tracks convergence or divergence from the 21- and 30-day EMAs and indicates the momentum of large transactions.
All of these signals together form the blockchain's overall directional bias.
Bearish: The number of bearish individual signals is greater than the number of bullish individual signals.
Neutral: The number of bearish individual signals is equal to the number of bullish individual signals.
Bullish: The number of bullish individual signals is greater than the number of bearish individual signals.
If the overall directional bias is bullish, we can expect the price of the observed cryptocurrency to increase. If the bias is bearish, we can expect the price to decrease. If the signal is neutral, the price may be more likely to stay the same.
Traders should be aware of two things. First, the signals provide optimal results when the chart is set to the daily timeframe. Second, the tool uses IntoTheBlock data, which is available on TradingView. Therefore, some cryptocurrencies may not be available.
🔹 Display Mode
Traders have three different display modes at their disposal. These modes can be easily selected from the settings panel. The gauge is set by default.
🔹 Gauge
The gauge will appear in the center of the visible space. Traders can adjust its size using the Scale parameter in the Settings panel. They can also give it a curved effect.
The number of bars displayed directly affects the gauge's resolution: More bars result in better resolution.
The chart above shows the effect that different scale configurations have on the gauge.
🔹 Historical Data
The chart above shows the historical data for each of the four signals.
Traders can use this mode to adjust the thresholds for each signal on the settings panel to fit the behavior of each cryptocurrency. They can also analyze how each metric impacts price behavior over time.
🔹 Average
This display mode provides an easy way to see the overall bias of past prices in order to analyze price behavior in relation to the underlying blockchain's directional bias.
The average is calculated by taking the values of the overall bias as -1 for bearish, 0 for neutral, and +1 for bullish, and then applying a triangular moving average over 20 periods by default. Simple and exponential moving averages are available, and traders can select the period length from the settings panel.
🔶 DETAILS
The four signals are based on IntoTheBlock's On-Chain Signals. We gather the data, manipulate it, and build the signals depending on each threshold.

Zone Shift [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Zone Shift is a dynamic trend detection tool that uses EMA/HMA-based bands to determine trend shifts and plot key reaction levels. It highlights trend direction through colored candles and marks important retests with visual cues to help traders stay aligned with momentum.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Dynamic EMA-HMA Band:
Creates a three-line channel using the average of an EMA and HMA for the midline, and expands it using average candle range to form upper and lower bounds. This band visually adapts to market volatility.
float ema = ta.ema(close, length)
float hma = ta.hma(close, length-40)
float dist = ta.sma(high-low, 200)
float mid = math.avg(ema, hma)
float top = mid + dist
float bot = mid - dist
Trend Detection (Band Cross Logic):
Detects an uptrend when the Low crosses above the top band.
Detects a downtrend when the High crosses below the bottom band.
Bars change color to lime for uptrends and blue for downtrends.
Trend Initiation Level:
At the start of a new trend, the indicator locks in the extreme point (low for uptrend, high for downtrend) and plots a dashed horizontal level, serving as a potential retest zone.
Trend Retest Signal:
If price crosses back over the Trend Initiation level in the direction of the trend, a diamond label (⯁) is plotted at the retest point — confirming that price is revisiting a key shift level.
Visual Band Layout:
Midline: Dashed line shows the average of EMA and HMA.
Top/Bottom: Solid lines showing dynamic thresholds above/below the midline.
These help visualize compression, expansion, and possible breakout zones.
Color-Based Candle Plotting:
Candles are recolored in real time according to the current trend, allowing instant visual alignment with the market’s directional bias.
Noise-Filtered Retests:
To avoid repetitive signals, retests are only marked if they occur more than 5 bars after the previous one — filtering out minor fluctuations.
⯁ USAGE
Use colored candles to align trades with the dominant trend.
Treat dashed trendStart levels as important support/resistance zones.
Watch for ⯁ diamond labels as confirmation of retests for continuation or entry.
Use band boundaries to assess trend strength and volatility expansion.
Combine with your existing setups to validate momentum and zone shifts.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Zone Shift helps traders visually capture trend changes and key reaction points with precision. By combining band breakouts with real-time retest signals and trend-colored candles, this tool simplifies the process of reading market structure shifts and identifying high-confluence entry areas.

Low Price RSI CrossoverThis Pine Script indicator is a Multi-Timeframe Low RSI Crossover system that combines three key filtering criteria to identify high-probability buy signals. Here's what it does:
Core Concept
The indicator only generates buy signals when all three conditions are met simultaneously:
Price at Multi-Period Low: Current price must be at or near the lowest point within your selected timeframe (1 week to 5 years, or custom)
RSI Momentum Shift: The smoothed RSI must cross above its signal line (EMA), indicating upward momentum
Below Threshold Entry: Both the RSI and its signal line must be below your threshold level (default 50) when the crossover occurs
Key Features
RSI Smoothing: Uses Hull Moving Average (HMA) to smooth the raw RSI, reducing noise and false signals while maintaining responsiveness.
Flexible Timeframes: Choose from predefined periods (1W, 2W, 3W, 1M, 2M, 3M, 6M, 9M, 1Y, 2Y, 3Y, 5Y) or set a custom number of bars.
Visual Feedback:
Plots the smoothed RSI (blue line) and its signal line (red line)
Shows threshold and overbought levels
Highlights signal bars with green background
Displays tiny green triangles at signal points
Real-time status table showing all conditions
Trading Logic
This is essentially a mean-reversion strategy that waits for:
Price to reach significant lows (value zone)
Momentum to start shifting upward (RSI crossover)
Entry from oversold/neutral territory (below 50 RSI)
Why This Works
By requiring price to be at multi-period lows, you avoid buying during downtrends or sideways chop. The RSI crossover confirms that selling pressure is starting to ease, while the threshold filter ensures you're not buying into overbought conditions.
The combination of these filters should significantly reduce false signals compared to using any single indicator alone.
Logarithmic Moving Average (LMA) [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Logarithmic Moving Average (LMA) uses advanced logarithmic weighting to create a dynamic trend-following indicator that prioritizes recent price action while maintaining statistical significance. Unlike traditional moving averages that use linear or exponential weights, this indicator employs logarithmic decay functions to create a more sophisticated price averaging system that adapts to market volatility and momentum conditions.
The indicator displays a smoothed signal line that oscillates around zero, with positive values indicating bullish momentum and negative values indicating bearish momentum. The signal incorporates trend quality assessment, momentum confirmation, and multiple filtering mechanisms to help traders and investors identify trend continuation and reversal opportunities across different timeframes and asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's core innovation lies in its logarithmic weighting system, where weights are calculated using the formula: w = 1.0 / math.pow(math.log(i + steepness), 2) The steepness parameter controls how aggressively recent data is prioritized over historical data, creating a dynamic weight decay that can be fine-tuned for different trading styles. This logarithmic approach provides more nuanced weight distribution compared to exponential moving averages, offering better responsiveness while maintaining stability.
The LMA calculation combines multiple sophisticated components. First, it calculates the logarithmic weighted average of closing prices. Then it measures the slope of this average over a 10-period lookback: lmaSlope = (lma - lma ) / lma * 100 The system also incorporates trend quality assessment using R-squared correlation analysis of log-transformed prices, measuring how well the price data fits a linear trend model over the specified period.
The final signal generation uses the formula: signal = lmaSlope * (0.5 + rSquared * 0.5) which combines the LMA slope with trend quality weighting. When momentum confirmation is enabled, the indicator calculates annualized log-return momentum and applies a multiplier when the momentum direction aligns with the signal direction, strengthening confirmed signals while filtering out weak or counter-trend movements.
🟢 How to Use
1. Signal Interpretation and Threshold Zones
Positive Values (Above Zero): LMA slope indicating bullish momentum with upward price trajectory relative to logarithmic baseline
Negative Values (Below Zero): LMA slope indicating bearish momentum with downward price trajectory relative to logarithmic baseline
Zero Line Crosses: Signal transitions between bullish and bearish regimes, indicating potential trend changes
Long Entry Threshold Zone: Area above positive threshold (default 0.5) indicating confirmed bullish signals suitable for long positions
Short Entry Threshold Zone: Area below negative threshold (default -0.5) indicating confirmed bearish signals suitable for short positions
Extreme Values: Signals exceeding ±1.0 represent strong momentum conditions with higher probability of continuation
2. Momentum Confirmation and Visual Analysis
Signal Color Intensity: Gradient coloring shows signal strength, with brighter colors indicating stronger momentum
Bar Coloring: Optional price bar coloring matches signal direction for quick visual trend identification
Position Labels: Real-time position classification (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral) displayed on the latest bar
Momentum Weight Factor: When short-term log-return momentum aligns with LMA signal direction, the signal receives additional weight confirmation
Trend Quality Component: R-squared values weight the signal strength, with higher correlation indicating more reliable trend conditions
3. Examples: Preconfigured Settings
Default: Universally applicable configuration balanced for medium-term investing and general trading across multiple timeframes and asset classes.
Scalping: Highly responsive setup with shorter period and higher steepness for ultra-short-term trades on 1-15 minute charts, optimized for quick momentum shifts.
Swing Trading: Extended period with moderate steepness and increased smoothing for multi-day positions, designed to filter noise while capturing larger price swings on 1-4 hour and daily charts.
Trend Following: Maximum smoothing with lower steepness for established trend identification, generating fewer but more reliable signals optimal for daily and weekly timeframes.
Mean Reversion: Shorter period with high steepness for counter-trend strategies, more sensitive to extreme moves and reversal opportunities in ranging market conditions.
Momentum Trail Oscillator [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script builds a Momentum Trail Oscillator designed to measure directional momentum strength and dynamically track shifts in trend bias using a combination of smoothed price change calculations and adaptive trailing bands. The oscillator aims to help traders visualize when momentum is expanding or contracting and to identify transitions between bullish and bearish conditions.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The core idea combines two methods. First, the script calculates a normalized momentum measure by smoothing price changes relative to their absolute values, which creates a bounded oscillator that highlights whether moves are directional or choppy. Second, it uses a trailing band mechanism inspired by volatility stops, where bands adapt to the oscillator’s volatility, adjusting the thresholds that define a shift in directional bias. This dual approach seeks to address both the magnitude and persistence of momentum, reducing false signals in ranging markets.
🟠 FEATURES
The momentum calculation applies Hull Moving Averages and double EMA smoothing to price changes, producing a smooth, responsive oscillator.
The trailing bands are derived by offsetting a weighted moving average of the oscillator by a multiple of recent momentum volatility. A directional state variable tracks whether the oscillator is above or below the bands, updating when the momentum crosses these dynamic thresholds.
Overbought and oversold zones are visually marked between fixed levels (+30/+40 and -30/-40), with color fills to highlight when momentum is in extreme areas. The script plots signals on both the oscillator pane and optionally overlays markers on the main price chart for clarity.
🟠 USAGE
To use the indicator, apply it to any symbol and timeframe. The “Oscillator Length” controls how sensitive the momentum line is to recent price changes—lower values react faster, higher values smooth out noise. The “Trail Multiplier” sets how far the adaptive bands sit from the oscillator mid-line, which affects how often trend state changes occur. When the momentum line rises into the upper filled area and then crosses back below +40, it signals potential overbought exhaustion. The opposite applies for the oversold zone below -40. The plotted trailing bands switch visibility depending on the current directional state: when momentum is trending up, the lower band acts as the active trailing stop, and when trending down, the upper band becomes active. Trend changes are marked with circular symbols when the direction variable flips, and optional overlay arrows appear on the price chart to highlight overbought or oversold reversals. Traders can combine these signals with their own price action or volume analysis to confirm entries or exits.
