TSI v2 [JopAlgo] – Sniper VersionTSI v2 — “Sniper” momentum that’s fast, clean, and actionable
Core idea
TSI (True Strength Index) turns raw price momentum into a smoothed, normalized oscillator so you can see trend side, turns, and follow-through without chop.
Workflow: momentum (close - close ) → double EMA smooth (fast = shortLength, slow = longLength) → normalize vs smoothed absolute momentum → scale to ±100 → signal EMA (signalLength) for triggers.
Above 0 → bullish momentum regime
Below 0 → bearish momentum regime
TSI vs Signal cross → momentum turn
Farther from 0 → stronger impulse
What you’ll see
TSI line (blue) — main momentum read
Signal line (orange) — trigger for turns
Zero line (gray) — bull/bear divider
Alerts for bullish/bearish crosses (enable if you want pane markers)
Read it in 3 seconds: Which side of 0? Did TSI cross its signal? Are bars expanding or fading?
How to use it (simple playbook)
Direction filter
Longs while TSI ≥ 0, shorts while TSI ≤ 0.
Cleanest continuation: TSI crosses up its signal above 0 (mirror down).
Act at real locations
Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) or Anchored VWAP reclaims/rejections.
No level, no trade.
Break + retest
Break a level with TSI > 0 and crossing up → enter on the first retest that holds (mirror down).
Trend pullback
In an uptrend, TSI dips toward the signal (ideally holds above 0), then re-crosses up near a level → continuation entry.
Do less in chop
If TSI and signal braid around 0, it’s balance—only trade edges with tight risk.
Entries, exits, risk
Continuation long: TSI > 0, crosses up at VAL/AVWAP/MA cluster → enter.
Stop: below structure/last swing. Targets: POC/HVNs or next swing high.
Fresh short: Breakdown + TSI < 0 crosses down → enter on failed retest.
Invalidation: quick re-cross up + level reclaim.
Manage: Trim when TSI flattens or crosses against you into target/HVN.
Settings that matter (and how to tune)
Short EMA (default 13): responsiveness (lower = faster, noisier).
Long EMA (default 25): backbone smoothing (higher = steadier).
Signal EMA (default 7): trigger sensitivity (lower = earlier, more flips).
Suggested presets
Scalp (1–5m): 8 / 21 / 5
Intraday (15m–1H): 13 / 25 / 7 (Sniper defaults)
Swing (2H–4H): 21 / 50 / 9
Daily backdrop: 25 / 100 / 9 (execute on lower TF)
Pattern cheat sheet
Zero-line reclaim: TSI crosses 0 and signal together → regime shift; use first retest.
Continuation curl: TSI pulls toward signal, holds above 0, then re-crosses up → add/enter with trend.
Weak break tell: Level poke while TSI fails to cross or stalls near 0 → skip/wait.
Light divergence: Price higher high while TSI lower high → thinning; trail tight into HVNs.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2: entries at VAH/VAL/LVNs, targets at POC/HVNs.
Anchored VWAP: reclaim/reject + TSI cross same direction = high-quality timing.
CVDv1 (optional): take TSI-aligned trades with flow (Alignment OK, no Absorption).
RVOL (optional): prefer breaks with participation above cutoff.
Common mistakes this helps you avoid
Longs with TSI < 0 or shorts with TSI > 0.
Chasing when TSI is flattening/crossing against you into a level.
Trading mid-range while TSI/signal whipsaw around 0.
Quick defaults to start
13 / 25 / 7 on 15m–1H
Process: Location → TSI side (0) → TSI vs Signal cross → (optional) CVD/RVOL check → Structure-based risk

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

Smoothed Heiken Ashi Candles [JopAlgo]Smoothed Heiken Ashi Candles — cleaner bias, less noise, better timing
What it does (one line):
Builds a two-stage smoothed Heiken Ashi view so you can read trend vs. pullback without the usual candle noise. Color does the talking:
Lime = bullish state (close ≥ open on the smoothed HA feed)
Red = bearish state
Under the hood: price is EMA-smoothed ( Length len ), converted to Heiken Ashi, then smoothed again ( Length len2 ). Net effect: fewer whips, clearer swings.
What you’ll see
A full candle chart of Smoothed HA (o₂/h₂/l₂/c₂).
Color rule: o₂ > c₂ → red (bearish), otherwise lime (bullish).
No extra clutter—just an easy bias read you can trust at a glance.
Read in 3 seconds: What color? What slope? Are pullbacks shallow or deep relative to the last swing?
How to use it (simple, repeatable)
Bias filter:
Trade longs while candles are lime.
Trade shorts while candles are red.
Where to act (location first):
Use Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) and Anchored VWAP for entries/targets.
No level, no trade.
When to click (timing):
Continuation: In lime, buy the first pullback that holds a level (VAL/AVWAP/MA cluster) and prints a fresh lime close. Mirror for red shorts.
Reclaim/Reject: A color flip that happens at a level (e.g., AVWAP reclaim → turns lime) is higher quality than a random mid-range flip.
Quality check (optional, strong):
If you use CVDv1 , prefer setups with Alignment OK and no Absorption against your side.
Timeframe guidance
1–5m (scalps): Keep len / len2 shorter (e.g., 5 / 5 or 6 / 8) to avoid lag.
15m–1H (intraday): Default 10 / 10 is a sweet spot.
2H–4H (swing): Try 14–20 / 10–14 for smoother swings.
1D+ (position): 20–34 / 14–20 for backdrop; execute on a lower TF.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune)
Smoothing Length for Original OHLC (len)
Controls the base smoothness before HA.
Lower = more reactive, more flips.
Higher = steadier bias, more lag.
Smoothing Length for Heiken Ashi (len2)
Controls the final polish of the HA feed.
Lower = earlier turns (noisier).
Higher = fewer flips (slower).
Practical tip: If you get too many color flips, raise len2 first. If it feels sluggish at entries, lower len slightly.
Entries, exits, and risk (keep it tight)
Entry — continuation:
In lime, wait for a pullback to VAL / AVWAP / MA cluster, then a new lime close → enter.
Stop: below structure/last swing. Targets: POC/HVNs or prior swing high/low.
Entry — reclaim/reject:
Color flips at a level (e.g., AVWAP reclaim turns lime) → enter with the level holding.
Invalidation: immediate flip back on the next bar and level loss.
Manage:
If color stays with you but progress stalls at HVNs, trim. If color flips against your position, tighten or exit unless higher-TF context argues to hold.
Best combos with other tools
Volume Profile v3.2: Use VAH/VAL/LVNs/POC for where to act; Smoothed HA tells you if trend context supports the trade.
Anchored VWAP: A reclaim/rejection with matching HA color is a high-quality timing cue.
CVDv1: Take color-aligned trades with flow (Alignment OK, strong Imbalance, no Absorption).
Patterns you’ll recognize
Walk-of-color: Multiple same-color bars with rising/lowering bodies → ride pullbacks to level; don’t fade.
Color flip at level: The cleanest reversal context (e.g., red→lime on a VAL reclaim).
Chop tell: Rapid lime↔red flips mid-range → do less; only trade edges.
Practical defaults to start
len = 10, len2 = 10
Timeframes: 15m–4H out of the box
Process: Location → Color/Bias → Timing bar → (optional) CVD check → Structure-based risk

Smart Choppy Index v1 [JopAlgo]Smart Choppy Index v1 — decide trend vs. chop in seconds
What it does (one line):
Measures the percent range of price over a lookback and tells you if the market is choppy (do less, fade edges) or trending (go with breaks/pullbacks).
Range% = (Highest High − Lowest Low) / Close × 100 over length
Below Choppy Threshold → likely range (red tint / X marker)
Above Trending Threshold → likely trend (green tint / ● marker)
Between them = mixed/transition (no background)
Read the pane fast
Orange line: the live Range%.
Red dashed line: Choppy Threshold.
Green dashed line: Trending Threshold.
Background: soft red during chop, soft green during trend.
Markers: X at the top when chop is detected, ● at the bottom when trend is detected.
TL;DR: Red = play defense / mean-revert. Green = play offense / trend-follow.
Simple playbook (copy this into your process)
Identify regime
Choppy (Range% < red line): prefer mean-reversion at VP edges / AVWAP; smaller targets, quicker exits.
Trending (Range% > green line): prefer breakouts + pullbacks; hold to POC/HVNs or structure.
Only execute at real locations
Volume Profile v3.2 : VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs for entries/targets.
Anchored VWAP : reclaims/rejections for timing.
Quality check (optional, recommended)
CVDv1 : execute with flow (Alignment OK, strong Imbalance, no Absorption against your side).
Risk
Stops go beyond structure/level, not on indicator flips.
If regime flips right after entry (green → red or red → green), consider tightening or exiting early.
Timeframe guidance
1–5m (scalps): length 14–20. You’ll see more flips—use thresholds a touch wider and execute only at edges.
15m–1H (intraday): length 14–34. Sweet spot for day trading bias.
2H–4H (swing): length 20–50. Fewer, cleaner signals; great for planning.
1D+ (position): length 50–100. Use as backdrop; trigger on lower TFs.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune)
Lookback Period (length)
Shorter = faster regime changes; longer = smoother, fewer flips.
Choppy Threshold (%) / Trending Threshold (%)
Calibrate by history: scroll back and mark typical Range% during range days vs trend days for your market/TF.
If you get too many trend flags, raise the green threshold.
If everything looks “choppy,” lower the red threshold slightly.
Background color
Turn off if your chart feels busy; markers remain.
How to trade it with other tools
In Chop (red):
Fade VAH/VAL/AVWAP touches toward POC with tight stops. Confirm with CVDv1 (avoid longs if Absorption is red, etc.).
In Trend (green):
Break + retest at VP levels/AVWAP. Add on pullbacks that hold while Range% stays above the green line.
Patterns to recognize
Squeeze → Expansion: Range% ramps from below red toward/through green → expect a trend phase.
Exhaustion → Balance: After a long green phase, Range% falls back toward the middle → take profits into HVNs, expect more two-way trade.
False break tell: Level poke while Range% sits near red → low odds of follow-through; prefer reclaims.
Practical defaults to start
length = 14
Choppy Threshold = 1.5%
Trending Threshold = 2.5%
Process: Regime → Location → Flow → Execute with structure-based risk

Basic Odds Enhancer: Supply Zone for ShortsHow to Use/Adjust:
On your chart, it marks bars where a 20-bar high coincides with high volume and bearish divergence—flag these as supply zones.
Tweak supply_threshold to 2.0 for stricter volume (fewer but stronger signals).
For zones, manually draw rectangles around the flagged area (use Drawing Tools > Rectangle).
Backtest: Apply to historical data (e.g., EUR/USD 4H) and check win rate with shorts on retests.
This setup typically yields 2-5 signals per week on major pairs, depending on volatility. Test on a demo account, and combine with market context (e.g., avoid shorts in strong uptrends).
Odds Enhancer: Volume + RSI DivHow it Works: This flags potential demand zones where price hits a 20-bar low with a volume spike and bullish RSI divergence. Customize for supply zones by flipping logic.

Multi-Timeframe MACD with Color Mix (Nikko)Multi-Timeframe MACD with Color Mix (Nikko) Indicator
This documentation explains the benefits of the "Multi-Timeframe MACD with Color Mix (Nikko)" indicator for traders and provides easy-to-follow steps on how to use it. Written as of 05:06 AM +07 on Saturday, October 04, 2025, this guide focuses on helping you, as a trader, get the most out of this tool with clear, practical advice before diving into the technical details.
Benefits for Traders
1. Multi-Timeframe Insight
This indicator lets you see momentum trends across 15-minute, 1-hour, 1-day, and 1-week timeframes all on one chart. This big-picture view helps you catch both quick market moves and long-term trends without flipping between charts, saving you time and giving you a fuller understanding of the market.
2. Visual Momentum Representation
The background changes from red to green based on short-term (15m) momentum, giving you a quick, easy-to-see signal—red means bearish (prices might drop), and green means bullish (prices might rise). The histogram uses a mix of red, green, and blue colors to show the combined strength of the 1-hour, 1-day, and 1-week timeframes, helping you spot strong trends at a glance (e.g., a bright mix for strong momentum, darker for weaker).
3. Enhanced Decision-Making
The background and histogram colors work together to confirm trends across different timeframes, making it less likely you’ll act on a false signal. This helps you feel more confident when deciding when to buy, sell, or hold.
4. Proactive Alert System
You can set alerts to notify you when the percentage of bullish timeframes hits your chosen levels (e.g., below 10% for bearish, above 90% for bullish). This keeps you in the loop on big momentum shifts without needing to watch the chart all day—perfect for when you’re busy.
5. Flexibility and Efficiency
You can turn timeframes on or off, adjust settings like speed of the moving averages, and tweak transparency to fit your trading style—whether you’re a fast scalper or a patient swing trader. Everything is shown on one chart, saving you effort, and the colors make it simple to read, even if you’re new to trading.
How to Use It
Getting Started
Add the Indicator: Load the "Multi-Timeframe MACD with Color Mix (Nikko)" onto your TradingView chart using the Pine Script editor or indicator library.
Pick Your Timeframes: Turn on the timeframes that match your trading—use 15m and 1h for quick trades, or 1d and 1w for longer holds—using the enable_15m, enable_1h, enable_1d, enable_1w, and enable_background options.
Reading the Colors
Background Gradient: Watch for red to signal bearish 15m momentum and green for bullish momentum. Adjust the Background_transparency (default 75%, or 25% opacity) if the chart feels too busy—try lowering it to 50 for clearer candlesticks in fast markets.
Histogram and EMA Colors:
The histogram and its Exponential Moving Average (EMA) line show a mix of red (1-week), green (1-day), and blue (1-hour) based on how strong the momentum is in each timeframe.
Brighter colors mean stronger momentum—white (all bright) shows all timeframes are pushing up hard, while darker shades (like gray or black) mean weaker or mixed momentum.
Turn off a timeframe (e.g., enable_1h = false) to see how it changes the color mix and focus on what matters to you.
Setting Alerts
Set Your Levels: Choose a threshold_low (default 10%) and threshold_high (default 90%) based on your comfort zone or past market patterns to catch big turns.
Get Notifications: Use TradingView alerts to get pings when the market hits your set levels, so you can act without staring at the screen.
Practical Tips
Pair with Other Tools: Use it with support/resistance lines or the RSI to double-check your moves and build a solid plan.
Tweak Settings: Adjust fast_length, slow_length, and signal_smoothing to match your asset’s speed, and bump up the lookback (default 50) for steadier trends in wild markets.
Practice First: Test different timeframe combos on a demo account to find what works best for you.
Understanding the Colors (Simple Explanation)
How Colors Work
The histogram and its EMA line use a color mix based on a simple idea from color theory, like mixing paints with red, green, and blue (RGB):
Red comes from the 1-week timeframe, green from 1-day, and blue from 1-hour.
When all three timeframes show strong upward momentum, they blend into bright white—the brightest color, like a super-bright light telling you the market’s roaring up.
If some timeframes are weak or pulling down, the mix gets darker (like gray or black), warning you the momentum might not be solid.
Brighter is Better
Bright Colors = Strong Opportunity: The brighter the histogram and EMA (closer to white), the more all your chosen timeframes are in agreement that prices are rising. This is your signal to think about buying or holding, as it points to a powerful trend you can ride.
Dark Colors = Caution: A darker mix (toward black) means some timeframes are lagging or bearish, suggesting you might wait or consider selling. It’s like a dim light saying, “Hold on, check again.”
Benefit in Practice: Watching the brightness helps you jump on the best trades fast. For example, a bright white histogram on a green background is like a green traffic light—go for it! A dark gray on red is like a red light—pause and rethink. This quick color check can save you from bad moves and boost your profits when the trend is strong.
Why It Helps
These colors are your fast friend in trading. A bright histogram means all your timeframes are cheering for an uptrend, giving you the confidence to act. A dull one tells you to be careful, helping you avoid traps. It’s like having a color-coded guide to pick the hottest market moments!

Relative Volume (RVOL) [JopAlgo]Relative Volume (RVOL) — “Filter Fakes, Ride Real Moves”
What it does:
Shows how today’s volume compares to its own average.
RVOL = current volume ÷ SMA(volume, length)
RVOL > cutoff → participation above normal (green)
RVOL < cutoff → participation below normal (red)
Use it to confirm breaks, filter entries, and avoid chasing moves fueled by thin volume.
Read it in 5 seconds
Above/Below the cutoff line (white) = high/low participation now.
Spikes through the cutoff on a break = real interest.
Dry-ups (well below cutoff) into support/resistance = good risk for mean-revert or pullback entries.
If you remember one rule: don’t chase a breakout with RVOL under the cutoff.
Simple playbook (copy this)
Breakout confirmation
Break at VAH/LVN/structure and RVOL > cutoff → take the retest that holds.
If RVOL stays below cutoff on the break → likely fake; wait for reclaim.
Pullback in trend
Trend up, price pulls to AVWAP / VAL / MA cluster with RVOL below cutoff → take the bounce when price turns; add if RVOL rises on the resume.
Fade the exhaustion
Into resistance, huge RVOL spike but no follow-through (long wick, CVD Absorption) → look for the fail back inside value.
Do less in chop
When RVOL hugs below cutoff all session, expect range; trade edges only.
Timeframe guide
1–5m (scalps): Signals are frequent. Keep cutoff ≥ 1.5; demand RVOL on breaks.
15m–1H (intraday): Sweet spot. cutoff 1.5–2.0 is a solid filter.
2H–4H (swing): Look for clustered bars > cutoff during expansions; dry-ups flag pullback entries.
1D+: Use RVOL to separate true trend days from drift.
Settings that matter
Length (default 14):
Shorter = reacts faster; Longer = smoother baseline.
Intraday: 14–20
Swing/Daily: 20–30
Cutoff (default 1.0):
Set the bar for “real” volume.
Conservative confirmation: 1.5–2.0
For slower pairs/timeframes: 1.2–1.5
Tune by scrolling back and marking where good breaks happened.
Color logic: green above cutoff, red below—no surprises.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2 : Confirm breaks of VAH/VAL/LVNs with RVOL > cutoff; target POC/HVNs.
Anchored VWAP : Reclaims/rejections with RVOL > cutoff stick more often.
CVDv1 :
Yes: RVOL high and CVD Alignment OK and no Absorption → higher-quality move.
No: RVOL high but Absorption red → don’t chase; look for fail/reclaim.
Pattern cheat sheet
Trend day: RVOL stays > cutoff on pushes; pullbacks show RVOL dip, then re-expand.
False break: Price pokes level, RVOL < cutoff, quick give-back.
Accumulation: Series of low-RVOL bars compressing under a level → watch for the first RVOL pop to go.
Exhaustion wick: RVOL spike + long wick into resistance/support → likely trap unless next bar accepts.
Notes & pitfalls
Exchange volume varies (crypto): use the same feed you trade and calibrate cutoff there.
RVOL ≠ direction: it’s participation. Always pair with location, structure, and flow.
Quick defaults to start
Length: 20
Cutoff: 1.5 (intraday) / 1.8–2.0 (for stricter confirmation)
Process: Level → RVOL above/below cutoff → CVD quality → Execute with structure-based risk

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

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

Market Bias (CEREBR)Market Bias (CEREBR) — quick read of who’s in control
What it does, in one line:
It builds a clean, smoothed Heikin-Ashi view (optionally from a higher timeframe) and an oscillator that says: bullish, bearish, or cooling off. You use it to decide directional bias and to avoid trading against that bias.
What you see on the chart
Smoothed HA candles (optional): green = bullish bias, red = bearish bias.
A soft fill band around the HA body:
Brighter = bias is strengthening.
Faded = bias is weakening.
(In Data Window) “Bias High / Low / Average” = the smoothed HA range and midline.
If you only look at one thing: green means look for longs, red means look for shorts. Faded color = be picky or trim.
How to use it (simple playbook)
Pick your higher timeframe (HTF) for the bias.
On a 4H chart, try HTF = 12H or 1D.
Rule: HTF must be equal to or higher than your chart TF.
Trade with the bias at real levels.
Longs only when the bias is green.
Shorts only when the bias is red.
Take entries at location: Volume Profile v3.2 levels (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) or Anchored VWAP.
Quality check (optional but strong):
Before clicking, glance at CVDv1.
Green bias + CVD Alignment OK and no Absorption = better odds.
If CVD shows Absorption against you, skip or wait for a retest.
When to pass:
Color flips every other bar (chop) → do less.
Color is fading (weakening) into your entry → size down or wait.
Timeframe guidance
Scalps (1–5m): HTF = 15m/30m. Use bias to filter direction; enter on pullbacks at AVWAP/VA edges.
Intraday (15m–1H): HTF = 4H. Buy dips in green / sell pops in red at VP levels.
Swing (2H–4H): HTF = 12H/1D. First pullback after a fresh flip is usually the best.
Position (1D–1W): HTF = 1W. Hold while color stays consistent; reduce on weakening near HVNs.
Entries, exits, and stops
Entry with trend:
Bias green, price pulls back to AVWAP / VAL / prior HA mid, then holds.
Click the long. Reverse for shorts in red.
Exit / reduce:
When “Trend Weakens” alert fires, or color fades while hitting your POC/HVN target.
Hard exit on opposite flip (green→red or red→green) if your idea was pure trend-follow.
Stops:
Behind structure/level (not just on color).
If the next bar flips bias against you and CVD also disagrees, cut it early.
Inputs that matter (keep these simple)
Timeframe (HA Market Bias): your HTF. Must be ≥ chart TF.
Period (default 100): smoothing for the base OHLC. Higher = steadier.
Smoothing (default 100): extra smoothing for the HA feed. Higher = fewer flips.
Oscillator Period (default 7): affects how fast strengthening/weakening shows in the fill color. Lower = quicker.
Tip: If you see too many flips, raise Period/Smoothing or pick a higher HTF. If it feels slow, lower them one notch.
Alerts (plain meaning)
Bullish Trend Switch: bias turned bearish → bullish.
Bullish Trend Strengthens / Weakens: same direction, momentum building / cooling.
Bearish Trend Switch: bullish → bearish.
Bearish Trend Strengthens / Weakens: same idea for shorts.
Use “Switch” to prepare for new setups; use “Strengthens/Weakens” to add/trim or tighten risk.
How it works (one paragraph, no math)
The script smooths price, builds Heikin-Ashi values on your chosen HTF, smooths those again, and doesn’t repaint on closed bars. From the HA open/close difference it creates a simple bias oscillator: above zero = bullish, below zero = bearish. The fill brightness tells you if that bias is getting stronger or weaker right now.
Good combos (optional, but recommended)
Volume Profile v3.2 : use VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs as your battleground.
Anchored VWAP : use reclaims/rejections for timing.
CVDv1 : sanity-check flow quality before entry.
FAQ (quick)
Does it repaint?
No on closed bars. HTF values are requested with a safe offset.
Best starting setup?
4H chart, HTF = 1D, Period/Smoothing 100/100, Oscillator 7.
Can I hide the HA candles?
Yes—toggle “Show HA Candles.” Keep only the bias fill if you want a cleaner price chart.

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

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

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

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