Trend Angle IndicatorTrend Angle Indicator
Description
The Trend Angle Indicator is designed to measure the strength of a trend by calculating the angle of the trend.
Specifically, it computes the angle of a Simple Moving Average (SMA) over a specified length and then applies
an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to the angle for smoothing.
This approach provides a clear indication of the trend's direction and intensity.
It also includes customizable alerts for significant changes in the trend angle and zero-line crossings,
making it a robust tool for traders seeking to gauge market momentum.
Key Features
- **Trend Angle Calculation**: Measures the trend's angle, providing insights into trend direction and strength.
- **SMA and EMA**: Uses SMA for the base calculation and EMA for smoothening the angle values.
- **Visual Trend Indication**: Visually indicates uptrends and downtrends with customizable colors - red and green.
- **Alerts**: Configurable alerts for significant changes in trend angle and zero-line crossings.
Calculation Methodology
1. **Simple Moving Average (SMA):**
- The script calculates the SMA of the close price over a user-defined `input_length`.
2. **Angle Calculation:**
- The height of the trend is calculated by subtracting the SMA value from the SMA value `input_length` bars ago. A higher angle value indicates a stronger trend.
- The angle in degrees is obtained using the arctangent function: \
3. **Exponential Moving Average (EMA):**
- Applies an EMA to the calculated angle to smooth out the values based on a user-defined `input_ma_length`.
4. **Trend Detection:**
The color of the angle plot and filled area provide a quick visual representation of the current trend direction
- The trend angle changes are monitored and visualized with color-coded plots.
- Uptrend: Angle >= 0 uses `upColor` (green).
- Downtrend: Angle < 0 uses `downColor` (red).
#### Using the Indicator
1. **Adding the Indicator:**
- Add the indicator to your TradingView chart by selecting it from the Pine Script library or by pasting the script into the Pine Script editor.
2. **Inputs:**
- **Length**: Defines the period for the SMA calculation.
- **MA Length**: Sets the period for the EMA smoothing.
- **Angle Change Threshold (degrees)**: Defines the threshold for significant angle change alerts.
- **Color Candles**: Optionally colorizes the price candles based on the angle's trend direction.
3. **Customizing Plots:**
- **Angle Plot**: Displays the EMA of the trend angle. The color changes based on whether the trend is up or down.
- **Zero Line**: A horizontal line at zero to easily visualize crossings that signify a change in trend direction.
- **Fill Color**: Fills the area above/below the zero line with colors representing the direction of the trend.
4. **Setting Alerts:**
- **Cross Above Zero**: Triggers an alert when the trend angle crosses above zero, indicating a potential start of an uptrend.
- **Cross Below Zero**: Triggers an alert when the trend angle crosses below zero, indicating a potential start of a downtrend.

Trend Following Parabolic Buy Sell Strategy [TradeDots]The Trend Following Parabolic Buy-Sell Strategy leverages the Parabolic SAR in combination with moving average crossovers to deliver buy and sell signals within a trend-following framework.
This strategy synthesizes proven methodologies sourced from various trading tutorials available on platforms such as YouTube and blogs, enabling traders to conduct robust backtesting on their selected trading pairs to assess the strategy's effectiveness.
HOW IT WORKS
This strategy employs four key indicators to orchestrate its trading signals:
1. Trend Alignment: It first assesses the relationship between the price and the predominant trendline to determine the directional stance—taking long positions only when the price trends above the moving average, signaling an upward market trajectory.
2. Momentum Confirmation: Subsequent to trend alignment, the strategy looks for moving average crossovers as a confirmation that the price is gaining momentum in the direction of the intended trades.
3. Signal Finalization: Finally, buy or sell signals are validated using the Parabolic SAR indicator. A long order is validated when the closing price is above the Parabolic SAR dots, and similarly, conditions are reversed for short orders.
4. Risk Management: The strategy institutes a fixed stop-loss at the moving average trendline and a take-profit level determinable by a prefixed risk-reward ratio calculated from the moving average trendline. These parameters are customizable by the users within the strategy settings.
APPLICATION
Designed for assets exhibiting pronounced directional momentum, this strategy aims to capitalize on clear trend movements conducive to achieving set take-profit targets.
As a lagging strategy that waits for multiple confirmatory signals, entry into trades might occasionally lag beyond optimal timing.
Furthermore, in periods of consolidation or sideways movement, the strategy may generate several false signals, suggesting the potential need for additional market condition filters to enhance signal accuracy during volatile phases.
DEFAULT SETUP
Commission: 0.01%
Initial Capital: $10,000
Equity per Trade: 70%
Users are advised to adjust and personalize this trading strategy to better match their individual trading preferences and style.

TASC 2024.06 REIT ETF Trading System█ OVERVIEW
This strategy script demonstrates the application of the Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) ETF trading system presented in the article by Markos Katsanos titled "Is The Price REIT?" from TASC's June 2024 edition of Traders' Tips .
█ CONCEPTS
REIT stocks and ETFs offer a simplified, diversified approach to real estate investment. They exhibit sensitivity to interest rates, often moving inversely to interest rate and treasury yield changes. Markos Katsanos explores this relationship and the correlation of prices with the broader market to develop a trading strategy for REIT ETFs.
The script employs Bollinger Bands and Donchian channel indicators to identify oversold conditions and trends in REIT ETFs. It incorporates the 10-year treasury yield index (TNX) as a proxy for interest rates and the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) as a benchmark for the overall market. The system filters trade entries based on their behavior and correlation with the REIT ETF price.
█ CALCULATIONS
The strategy initiates long entries (buy signals) under two conditions:
1. Oversold condition
The weekly ETF low price dips below the 15-week Bollinger Band bottom, the closing price is above the value by at least 0.2 * ATR ( Average True Range ), and the price exceeds the week's median.
Either of the following:
– The TNX index is down over 15% from its 25-week high, and its correlation with the ETF price is less than 0.3.
– The yield is below 2%.
2. Uptrend
The weekly ETF price crosses above the previous week's 30-week Donchian channel high.
The SPY ETF is above its 20-week moving average.
Either of the following:
– Over ten weeks have passed since the TNX index was at its 30-week high.
– The correlation between the TNX value and the ETF price exceeds 0.3.
– The yield is below 2%.
The strategy also includes three exit (sell) rules:
1. Trailing (Chandelier) stop
The weekly close drops below the highest close over the last five weeks by over 1.5 * ATR.
The TNX value rises over the latest 25 weeks, with a yield exceeding 4%, or its value surges over 15% above the 25-week low.
2. Stop-loss
The ETF's price declines by at least 8% of the previous week's close and falls below the 30-week moving average.
The SPY price is down by at least 8%, or its correlation with the ETF's price is negative.
3. Overbought condition
The ETF's value rises above the 100-week low by over 50%.
The ETF's price falls over 1.5 * ATR below the 3-week high.
The ETF's 10-week Stochastic indicator exceeds 90 within the last three weeks.
█ DISCLAIMER
This strategy script educates users on the system outlined by the TASC article. However, note that its default properties might not fully represent real-world trading conditions for an individual. By default, it uses 10% of equity as the order size and a slippage amount of 5 ticks. Traders should adjust these settings and the commission amount when using this script. Additionally, since this strategy utilizes compound conditions on weekly data to trigger orders, it will generate significantly fewer trades than other, higher-frequency strategies.
Noise Area Indicator with Gap AdjustmentsThis version of the Noise Area Pine Script, developed with the assistance of ChatGPT, includes adjustments for opening gaps to better account for overnight price changes that affect the market open. This Pine Script is designed to provide traders with a dynamic visualization of the Noise Area based on the volatility of the last 14 trading days. It calculates the upper and lower boundaries using the daily opening price, representing typical price movements relative to the open. This helps identify significant deviations, potentially indicating the start of a trend.
Features:
Captures and adjusts for gaps between the previous day's close and the current day's open, allowing for more precise trend analysis.
Sets the Noise Area boundaries using both the daily opening price and the previous day's closing price, ensuring that sudden market moves are adequately considered.
Measures deviations in price from the opening, averaged over the last 14 days to calculate absolute movements.
Plots upper and lower boundaries on the chart, providing a visual guide for traders to assess market volatility.
Includes a dynamically plotted daily opening price, serving as a consistent reference point for market open conditions.
Usage:
This indicator is particularly useful for day traders and short-term traders who need to understand intraday volatility and pinpoint potential breakout points, aiding in the strategic planning of entry and exit points based on historical volatility patterns relative to the daily open (with gap adjustments).
Wilder's ChannelThe Wilder’s channel is a typical channel indicator made of 2 Wilder’s average from the high and low price over a “p” period, factorized by the Average True Range value over “atx” period.
Indicator from Kevin Britain library.
"Wilder's Channel," which is plotted on the chart overlay to assist traders in visualizing potential support and resistance levels. This script uses a combination of Wilder's Moving Average and the Average True Range (ATR) to create a channel around price movements. Here's a breakdown of how it works and its benefits:
Trend Confirmation: The channel helps confirm the current trend direction. If prices are consistently near the upper boundary, it suggests an uptrend, and vice versa for a downtrend.
Support and Resistance Levels: The Upper and Lower lines serve as dynamic support and resistance levels, which can help traders identify potential entry and exit points.
Volatility Insight: The width of the channel gives insight into market volatility. A wider channel indicates higher volatility, while a narrower channel suggests less volatility.
Trade Management: The buffer zones can be used for additional decision-making points, such as tightening stop-loss orders or preparing for potential breakouts or pullbacks.
Volatility ATR Support and Resistance Bands [Quantigenics]Volatility ATR Support and Resistance Bands
The “Volatility ATR Support and Resistance Bands” is a trend visualization tool that uses Average True Range (ATR) to create a dynamic channel around price action, adapting to changes in volatility and offering clear trend indicators. The band direction can indicate trend and the lines can indicate support and resistance levels.
The script works by calculating a series of moving averages from the highest and lowest prices, then applies an ATR-based multiplier to generate a set of bands. These bands expand and contract with the market’s volatility, providing a visual guide to the strength and potential direction of price movements.
How to Trade with Volatility ATR Band:
Identify Trend Direction: When the bands slope upwards, the market is trending upwards, which may be a good opportunity to consider a long position. When the bands slope downward, the market is trending downwards, which could be a sign to sell or short.
Volatility Awareness: The wider the bands, the higher the market volatility. Narrow bands suggest a quieter market, which might indicate consolidation or a potential breakout/breakdown.
Confirm Entries and Exits: Use the bands as dynamic support and resistance; entering trades as the price bounces off the bands and considering exits as it reaches the opposite side or breaches the bands.
Hope you enjoy this script!
Happy trading!
Institutional Activity Index [AlgoAlpha]🌟 Introducing the Institutional Activity Index by AlgoAlpha 🌟
Welcome to a powerful new indicator designed to gauge institutional trading activity! This cutting-edge tool combines volume analysis with price movement to derive a unique index that shines a spotlight on potential institutional moves in the market. 🎯📈
Key Features:
🔍 Normalization Period : Adjust the look-back period for normalization to tailor the sensitivity to your trading strategy.
📊 Moving Average Types : Choose from SMA, HMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, or VWMA to smooth the index and pinpoint trends.
🌈 Color-Coded Trends : Instant visual feedback on index trend direction with customizable up and down colors.
🔔 Alerts : Set alerts for when the index shows increasing activity, decreasing activity, or has reached a peak.
Quick Guide to Using the Institutional Activity Index:
1. 📝 Add the Indicator: Add the indicator to favorites. Adjust the normalization period, MA type, and peak detection settings to match your trading style.
2. 📈 Market Analysis: Similar to volume that reflects the amount of collective trading activity, this index reflects an estimate of the amount of trading activity by institutions. A higher value means that institutions are trading the asset more, this can mean selling or buying as the indicator does not indicate direction . Look out for peak signals, which may indicate that institutions have already secured positions in preparation for a move in price.
3. 🔔 Set Alerts: Enable alerts to notify you when there is a significant change in the activity levels or a new peak is detected, allowing for timely decisions without constant monitoring.
How It Works: 🛠
It is common knowledge that institutions trade with high amounts of capital, but employ tactics so as to not move the price significantly when entering on positions. This can be done by entering in times of high liquidity so that when an institution buys, there are enough sellers to cancel out the price movements and prevent a huge pump in price and vice versa. The Institutional Activity Index calculates liquidity by measuring the volume relative to the price range (close-open). This value is smoothed using median and a user defined moving average type and period, enhancing its clarity. If normalization is enabled, the index is adjusted relative to its range over a user-defined period, making the data comparable across different conditions.
Embrace this innovative tool to enhance your trading insights and strategies! 🚀✨
Johnny's Adjusted BB Buy/Sell Signal"Johnny's Adjusted BB Buy/Sell Signal" leverages Bollinger Bands and moving averages to provide dynamic buy and sell signals based on market conditions. This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to identify strategic entry and exit points based on volatility and trend analysis.
How It Works
Bollinger Bands Setup: The indicator calculates Bollinger Bands using a specified length and multiplier. These bands serve to identify potential overbought (upper band) or oversold (lower band) conditions.
Moving Averages: Two moving averages are calculated — a trend moving average (trendMA) and a long-term moving average (longTermMA) — to gauge the market's direction over different time frames.
Market Phase Determination: The script classifies the market into bullish or bearish phases based on the relationship of the closing price to the long-term moving average.
Strong Buy and Sell Signals: Enhanced signals are generated based on how significantly the price deviates from the Bollinger Bands, coupled with the average candle size over a specified lookback period. The signals are adjusted based on whether the market is bullish or bearish:
In bullish markets, a strong buy signal is triggered if the price significantly drops below the lower Bollinger Band. Conversely, a strong sell signal is activated when the price rises well above the upper band.
In bearish markets, these signals are modified to be more conservative, adjusting the thresholds for triggering strong buy and sell signals.
Features:
Flexibility: Users can adjust the length of the Bollinger Bands and moving averages, as well as the multipliers and factors that determine the strength of buy and sell signals, making it highly customizable to different trading styles and market conditions.
Visual Aids: The script vividly plots the Bollinger Bands and moving averages, and signals are visually represented on the chart, allowing traders to quickly assess trading opportunities:
Regular buy and sell signals are indicated by simple shapes below or above price bars.
Strong buy and sell signals are highlighted with distinctive colors and placed prominently to catch the trader's attention.
Background Coloring: The background color changes based on the market phase, providing an immediate visual cue of the market's overall sentiment.
Usage:
This indicator is ideal for traders who rely on technical analysis to guide their trading decisions. By integrating both Bollinger Bands and moving averages, it provides a multi-faceted view of market trends and volatility, making it suitable for identifying potential reversals and continuation patterns. Traders can use this tool to enhance their understanding of market dynamics and refine their trading strategies accordingly.
Daily Chart ATR & Movement %This Pine Script, titled "Daily ATR & Movement %," is designed for traders looking to gauge volatility and price movements relative to that volatility directly on their trading chart. The script calculates and displays the Average True Range (ATR) over a 14-day period using daily data, alongside the percentage movement of the current price from the previous day's close, scaled by the ATR. These metrics provide a snapshot of daily volatility and the magnitude of price movements within that context, which can be crucial for making informed trading decisions, especially in markets where volatility is a significant factor.
Key Features:
Daily ATR Calculation: Utilizes the ta.atr(14) function to compute the Average True Range on a daily basis, which measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of asset prices for that day.
Movement Percentage: The script calculates the movement from yesterday’s closing price to today’s current price as a percentage of the daily ATR. This shows how significant today's price change is relative to the typical daily volatility, which helps in understanding whether the price movement is substantial or trivial.
Customizable Label Display: Traders can customize the display through a user input dropdown menu for label size ("small", "normal", "large", "huge") and a slider for vertical offset. This allows for better visibility and customization based on user preference and screen setup.
Dynamic Label Updates: A label is dynamically updated each bar with the latest ATR value and movement percentage. This ongoing update keeps traders informed in real-time without manual recalculations.
How to Use:
Setup: Apply the indicator to any chart.
Customization: Adjust the label size and vertical position to suit your viewing preference using the script’s input options.
Interpretation: Monitor the displayed ATR value and movement percentage to assess volatility and relative price movements. High percentages could indicate significant moves worth trading, while low percentages suggest minor changes.
This script is particularly useful for traders who rely on volatility-based trading strategies, such as breakout trading, where understanding the context of price movements relative to typical market fluctuations can provide a strategic edge.

By default it doesn't load historical tick data, this indicator only works on realtime bars.
ATR Oscillator with DotsThe ATR Oscillator with Dots utilizes the Average True Range (ATR), a traditional measure that captures the extent of an asset's price movements within a given timeframe. Rather than depicting these values in a continuous line, the ATR Oscillator represents them as discrete dots, colored according to the price movement direction: green for upward movements when the current close is higher than the previous, and red for downward movements when the current close is lower.
In terms of functionality, the key feature of this oscillator is how it visualizes volatility through the spacing of the dots. During periods of high market volatility, the shifts between red and green dots tend to occur more frequently and with greater disparity in their positioning along the oscillator’s axis. This indicates sharp price changes and high trading activity. Conversely, periods of market consolidation are characterized by fewer color changes and a more clustered arrangement of dots, reflecting less price movement and lower volatility.
Traders can leverage the insights from the ATR Oscillator with Dots to better understand the market's behavior. For instance, a tight clustering of dots around the zero line suggests a consolidation phase, where the price is relatively stable and may be preparing for a breakout. On the other hand, widely spaced dots alternating between red and green signify strong price movements, offering opportunities for traders to capitalize on trends or prepare for potential reversals.
Imagine a scenario where a trader is monitoring a currency pair in a fluctuating forex market. An observed increase in the frequency and gap of alternating red and green dots would suggest a rise in volatility, possibly triggered by economic news or events. This could be an optimal time for the trader to seek entry or exit points, aligning their strategy with the increased activity. Conversely, a reduction in the frequency and gap of dot changes could signal an impending consolidation phase, prompting the trader to adopt a more cautious approach or explore range-bound trading strategies.
Therefore, the ATR Oscillator with Dots not only simplifies the interpretation of volatility and price momentum through visual cues but also enriches the trader’s strategy by highlighting periods of high activity and consolidation. This tool can be crucial for making informed decisions, particularly in fast-moving or uncertain market conditions, and can be effectively paired with other indicators to confirm trends and refine trading tactics.
Multi-Timeframe Trend TableThe "Multi-Timeframe Trend Table" indicator is a tool that consolidates a variety of critical trading metrics into a single, easy-to-read table format. This indicator is especially useful for traders who need to analyze multiple timeframes and indicators simultaneously to make informed trading decisions. By displaying a broad spectrum of data including trend information, rangebound status, volatility levels, VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price), and specific candlestick patterns, the indicator provides a comprehensive overview of market conditions across different timeframes.
Functionality and Components
At its core, the indicator provides real-time insights into market trends by showing whether each timeframe is experiencing an upward, downward, or neutral trend based on simple moving averages. This is complemented by the "Rangebound" status, which indicates whether the price is trading within a defined range, giving insights into market consolidation periods. This can be critical for identifying breakouts or breakdowns from established ranges.
Volatility Measurement
Another key feature of the indicator is the "Volatility" column, which rates the market's volatility on a scale from 1 to 10. This feature uses the Average True Range (ATR) to assess how drastically prices are changing within a given timeframe, providing a numerical value that helps traders understand the intensity of price movements. High volatility levels (scores above 6) are highlighted, which can be crucial for strategies that prefer high volatility.
VWAP and Candlestick Patterns
The indicator also displays the VWAP, which is essential for traders who focus on volume as it shows the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, based on both volume and price. It is especially useful for traders looking to confirm trend directions or catch potential reversals. Additionally, the "Candle" column enhances the indicator's utility by identifying specific candlestick patterns like Doji, Hammer, Inverted Hammer, Bullish Engulfing, and Bearish Engulfing, which are pivotal for pinpointing momentum changes and potential entry or exit points.
Usage Strategy
Traders can utilize this indicator by setting up specific rules based on the information provided. For instance, a possible strategy could involve entering a trade when a Bullish Engulfing pattern appears in a low-volatility environment as indicated by a volatility score under 6, suggesting a potential uptrend start with limited downside risk. Similarly, a trader might consider exiting a position or taking a short position when a Bearish Engulfing pattern is identified during high volatility periods, signaling possible sharp price declines.
Adaptability and Customization
An added advantage is the indicator’s adaptability; traders can customize which columns to display based on their trading preferences and strategies. Whether focusing on trends, volatility, or candlestick patterns, users can configure the table to match their specific needs. This makes it a versatile tool suited for various trading styles and objectives, from day trading to swing trading.
Overall Utility
Overall, the "Multi-Timeframe Trend Table" indicator is an invaluable asset for traders who manage multiple instruments across different timeframes, offering a bird's-eye view of the markets in one concise table. It aids in quick decision-making by providing all necessary data points at a glance, reducing the need to switch between multiple charts and potentially missing critical market movements. By integrating trend analysis with volatility and candlestick patterns, it equips traders with a powerful synthesis of technical analysis tools to enhance their trading strategies and improve market timing.
Stochastic Z-Score Oscillator Strategy [TradeDots]The "Stochastic Z-Score Oscillator Strategy" represents an enhanced approach to the original "Buy Sell Strategy With Z-Score" trading strategy. Our upgraded Stochastic model incorporates an additional Stochastic Oscillator layer on top of the Z-Score statistical metrics, which bolsters the affirmation of potential price reversals.
We also revised our exit strategy to when the Z-Score revert to a level of zero. This amendment gives a much smaller drawdown, resulting in a better win-rate compared to the original version.
HOW DOES IT WORK
The strategy operates by calculating the Z-Score of the closing price for each candlestick. This allows us to evaluate how significantly the current price deviates from its typical volatility level.
The strategy first takes the scope of a rolling window, adjusted to the user's preference. This window is used to compute both the standard deviation and mean value. With these values, the strategic model finalizes the Z-Score. This determination is accomplished by subtracting the mean from the closing price and dividing the resulting value by the standard deviation.
Following this, the Stochastic Oscillator is utilized to affirm the Z-Score overbought and oversold indicators. This indicator operates within a 0 to 100 range, so a base adjustment to match the Z-Score scale is required. Post Stochastic Oscillator calculation, we recalibrate the figure to lie within the -4 to 4 range.
Finally, we compute the average of both the Stochastic Oscillator and Z-Score, signaling overpriced or underpriced conditions when the set threshold of positive or negative is breached.
APPLICATION
Firstly, it is better to identify a stable trading pair for this technique, such as two stocks with considerable correlation. This is to ensure conformance with the statistical model's assumption of a normal Gaussian distribution model. The ideal performance is theoretically situated within a sideways market devoid of skewness.
Following pair selection, the user should refine the span of the rolling window. A broader window smoothens the mean, more accurately capturing long-term market trends, while potentially enhancing volatility. This refinement results in fewer, yet precise trading signals.
Finally, the user must settle on an optimal Z-Score threshold, which essentially dictates the timing for buy/sell actions when the Z-Score exceeds with thresholds. A positive threshold signifies the price veering away from its mean, triggering a sell signal. Conversely, a negative threshold denotes the price falling below its mean, illustrating an underpriced condition that prompts a buy signal.
Within a normal distribution, a Z-Score of 1 records about 68% of occurrences centered at the mean, while a Z-Score of 2 captures approximately 95% of occurrences.
The 'cool down period' is essentially the number of bars that await before the next signal generation. This feature is employed to dodge the occurrence of multiple signals in a short period.
DEFAULT SETUP
The following is the default setup on EURAUD 1h timeframe
Rolling Window: 80

FURTHER IMPLICATION
The Stochastic Oscillator imparts minimal impact on the current strategy. As such, it may be beneficial to adjust the weightings between the Z-Score and Stochastic Oscillator values or the scale of Stochastic Oscillator to test different performance outcomes.
Alternative momentum indicators such as Keltner Channels or RSI could also serve as robust confirmations of overbought and oversold signals when used for verification.

Garman-Klass-Yang-Zhang Volatility EstimatorThe Garman-Klass-Yang-Zhang Volatility Estimator (GKYZVE) is yet another attempt to robustly measure volatility, integrating intra-candle and inter-candle dynamics. It is an extension of the Garman-Klass Volatility Estimator (GKVE) incorporating insights from the Yang-Zhang Volatility Estimator (YZVE) . Like the YZVE, the GKYZVE holistically considers open, high, low, and close prices. The formula for GKYZ is:
GKYZVE = 0.5 * σ_HL² + * σ_CC² + σ_OC²
Where:
σ_HL² is the variance based on the high and low prices (σ_HL² = (high - low)² / (4 * math.log(2))), weighted at 0.5.
σ_CC² is the close-to-close variance (σ_CC² = (close - close)²), weighted at (2 ln 2) -1 for the logarithmic distribution of returns and emphasizing the impact of day-to-day price changes.
σ_OC² is the variance of the opening price against the closing price (σ_OC² = 0.5 * (open - close)²), weighted at 1.
The GKYZVE differs from the YZVE by using fixed weighing factors derived from theoretical calculations, leaning heavier into the assumption that returns are log-distributed.
This script also offers a choice for normalization between 0 and 1, turning the estimator into an oscillator for comparing current volatility to recent levels. Horizontal lines at user-defined levels are also available for clearer visualization. Both options are off by default.

Volatility Estimator - YZ & RSThe Yang-Zheng Volatility Estimator (YZVE) integrates both intra-candle and inter-candle dynamics, such as overnight and weekend price changes, offering a more detailed analysis compared to traditional methods. The YZVE is proposed to improve over the standard deviation by accounting for the open, high, low, and close prices of trading periods, instead of only the close prices, and attempts to supplant the Parkinson's Volatility Estimator (PVE) by a also capturing inter-candle dynamics. The YZVE is calculated by this formula:
YZ Volatility Squared σ_YZ² = k * σ_o² + σ_rs² + (1 - k) * σ_c²
where k is a weighting factor that adjusts the emphasis between the overnight and close-to-close components, popularly estimated as:
k = 0.34 / (1.34 + (N+1) / (N-1))
where N is the lookback period. Optionally, users may opt to override this calculation with a specified constant (off by default). Next, the
Overnight Volatility Squared σ_o² = (log(O_t / C_(t-1)))²
measures the volatility associated with overnight price changes, from the previous candle's closing price C_(t-1) to the current candle's opening price O_t. It captures the market's reaction to news and events that occur outside of regular trading hours to reflect risk associated with holding positions over non-trading hours and gaps.
Next, the The Rogers-Satchell Volatility Estimator (RSVE) serves as an intermediary step in the computation of YZVE. It aggregates the logarithmic ratios between high, low, open, and close prices within each trading period, focusing on intra-candle volatility without assuming zero inter-candle drift as commonly implicitly assumed in other volatility models:
Rogers-Satchell Volatility Squared σ_rs² = (log(H_t / C_t) * log(H_t / O_t)) + (log(L_t / C_t) * log(L_t / O_t))
Finally,
Close-to-Close Volatility Squared σ_c² = (log(C_t / C_(t-1)))²
measures the volatility from the close of one candle to the close of the next. It reflects the typical candle volatility, similar to naive standard deviation.
This script also includes an option for users to apply the simpler RS Volatility exclusively, focusing on intraday price movements. Additionally, it offers a choice for normalization between 0 and 1, turning the estimator into an oscillator for comparing current volatility to recent levels. Horizontal lines at user-defined levels are also available for clearer visualization. Both are off by default.

Parkinson's Volatility EstimatorThe Parkinson's Volatility Estimator (PVE) provides an alternative method for assessing market volatility using the highest and lowest prices within a given period. Unlike traditional models that predominantly rely on closing prices, the PVE considers the full range of intra-candle price movements, thereby potentially offering a more comprehensive gauge of market volatility. The estimator is derived from the logarithm of the ratio of the high to low prices, squared and then averaged over the period of interest. This calculation is rooted in the assumption that the logarithmic high-to-low ratio represents a normalized measure of price movements, capturing both upward and downward volatility in a symmetric manner (Parkinson, 1980).
In this specific implementation, the estimator is calculated as follows:
Parkinson’s Volatility = (1/4 log(2)) * (1/n) * Σ from i=1 to n of (log(High_i/Low_i))^2
where n is the lookback period defined by the user, and High_i and Low_i are the highest and lowest prices at each interval i within that period. This formulation takes advantage of the logarithmic properties to scale the volatility measure appropriately, utilizing a factor of 1/4 log(2) to normalize the variance estimate (Parkinson, 1980).
This implementation includes options for output normalization between 0 and 1 and for plotting horizontal lines at specified levels, allowing the estimator to function like an oscillator to evaluate volatility relative to recent market regimes. Users can customize these features through script inputs, enhancing flexibility for various trading scenarios and improving its utility for real-time volatility assessments on the TradingView platform.

Price Based Z-Trend - Strategy [presentTrading]█ Introduction and How it is Different
Z-score: a statistical measurement of a score's relationship to the mean in a group of scores.
Simple but effective approach.
The "Price Based Z-Trend - Strategy " leverages the Z-score, a statistical measure that gauges the deviation of a price from its moving average, normalized against its standard deviation. This strategy stands out due to its simplicity and effectiveness, particularly in markets where price movements often revert to a mean. Unlike more complex systems that might rely on a multitude of indicators, the Z-Trend strategy focuses on clear, statistically significant price movements, making it ideal for traders who prefer a streamlined, data-driven approach.
BTCUSD 6h LS Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
🔶 Calculation of the Z-score
"Z-score is a statistical measurement that describes a value's relationship to the mean of a group of values. Z-score is measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean. If a Z-score is 0, it indicates that the data point's score is identical to the mean score. A Z-score of 1.0 would indicate a value that is one standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores may be positive or negative, with a positive value indicating the score is above the mean and a negative score indicating it is below the mean."
The Z-score is central to this strategy. It is calculated by taking the difference between the current price and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the price over a user-defined length, then dividing this by the standard deviation of the price over the same length:
z = (x - μ) /σ
Local
🔶 Trading Signals
Trading signals are generated based on the Z-score crossing predefined thresholds:
- Long Entry: When the Z-score crosses above the positive threshold.
- Long Exit: When the Z-score falls below the negative threshold.
- Short Entry: When the Z-score falls below the negative threshold.
- Short Exit: When the Z-score rises above the positive threshold.
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows users to select their preferred trading direction through an input option.
█ Usage
To use this strategy effectively, traders should first configure the Z-score thresholds according to their risk tolerance and market volatility. It's also crucial to adjust the length for the EMA and standard deviation calculations based on historical performance and the expected "noise" in price data.
The strategy is designed to be flexible, allowing traders to refine settings to better capture profitable opportunities in specific market conditions.
█ Default Settings
- Trade Direction: Both
- Standard Deviation Length: 100
- Average Length: 100
- Threshold for Z-score: 1.0
- Bar Color Indicator: Enabled
These settings offer a balanced starting point but can be customized to suit various trading styles and market environments. The strategy's parameters are designed to be adjusted as traders gain experience and refine their approach based on ongoing market analysis.
Z-score is a must-learn approach for every algorithmic trader.
Sector Rotation Hedging With Volatility Index [TradeDots]The "Sector Rotation Hedging Strategy With Volatility Index" is a comprehensive trading indicator developed to optimally leverage the S&P500 volatility index. It is designed to switch between distinct ETF sectors, strategically hedging to moderate risk exposure during harsh market volatility.
HOW DOES IT WORK
The core of this indicator is grounded on the S&P500 volatility index (VIX) close price and its 60-day moving average. This serves to determine whether the prevailing market volatility is above or below the quarterly average.
In periods of elevated market volatility, risk exposure escalates significantly. Traders retaining stocks in sectors with disproportionately high volatility face increased vulnerability to negative returns. To tackle this, our indicator employs a two-pronged approach utilizing two sequential candlestick close prices to confirm if volatility surpasses the average value.
Upon confirming above-average volatility, a hedging table is deployed to spotlight ETFs with low volatility, such as the Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLU), to derisk the overall portfolio.
Conversely, in low-volatility conditions, sectors yielding higher returns like the Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLK) are preferred. The hedging table is utilized to earmark high-return sector ETFs.
Thus, during highly volatile market periods, the strategy recommends enhancing portfolio allocation to low-volatility ETFs. During low-volatility windows, the portfolio is calibrated towards high-volatility ETFs for heightened returns.
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION
In real trading, additional considerations encompassing trading commissions, management fees, and ancillary rotation costs should be factored in. False signals may arise, potentially leading to losses from these fees.

Buy Sell Strategy With Z-Score [TradeDots]The "Buy Sell Strategy With Z-Score" is a trading strategy that harnesses Z-Score statistical metrics to identify potential pricing reversals, for opportunistic buying and selling opportunities.
HOW DOES IT WORK
The strategy operates by calculating the Z-Score of the closing price for each candlestick. This allows us to evaluate how significantly the current price deviates from its typical volatility level.
The strategy first takes the scope of a rolling window, adjusted to the user's preference. This window is used to compute both the standard deviation and mean value. With these values, the strategic model finalizes the Z-Score. This determination is accomplished by subtracting the mean from the closing price and dividing the resulting value by the standard deviation.
This approach provides an estimation of the price's departure from its traditional trajectory, thereby identifying market conditions conducive to an asset being overpriced or underpriced.
APPLICATION
Firstly, it is better to identify a stable trading pair for this technique, such as two stocks with considerable correlation. This is to ensure conformance with the statistical model's assumption of a normal Gaussian distribution model. The ideal performance is theoretically situated within a sideways market devoid of skewness.
Following pair selection, the user should refine the span of the rolling window. A broader window smoothens the mean, more accurately capturing long-term market trends, while potentially enhancing volatility. This refinement results in fewer, yet precise trading signals.
Finally, the user must settle on an optimal Z-Score threshold, which essentially dictates the timing for buy/sell actions when the Z-Score exceeds with thresholds. A positive threshold signifies the price veering away from its mean, triggering a sell signal. Conversely, a negative threshold denotes the price falling below its mean, illustrating an underpriced condition that prompts a buy signal.
Within a normal distribution, a Z-Score of 1 records about 68% of occurrences centered at the mean, while a Z-Score of 2 captures approximately 95% of occurrences.
The 'cool down period' is essentially the number of bars that await before the next signal generation. This feature is employed to dodge the occurrence of multiple signals in a short period.
DEFAULT SETUP
The following is the default setup on EURUSD 1h timeframe
Rolling Window: 80
Z-Score Threshold: 2.8
Signal Cool Down Period: 5
Commission: 0.03%
Initial Capital: $10,000
Equity per Trade: 30%

Rise Sense Capital - RSI MACD Spot Buying IndicatorToday, I'll share a spot buying strategy shared by a member @KR陳 within the DATA Trader Alliance Alpha group. First, you need to prepare two indicators:
今天分享一個DATA交易者聯盟Alpha群組裏面的群友@KR陳分享的現貨買入策略。
首先需要準備兩個指標
RSI Indicator (Relative Strength Index) - RSI is a technical analysis tool based on price movements over a period of time to evaluate the speed and magnitude of price changes. RSI calculates the changes in price over a period to determine whether the recent trend is relatively strong (bullish) or weak (bearish).
RSI指標，(英文全名:Relative Strength Index)，中文稱為「相對強弱指標」，是一種以股價漲跌為基礎，在一段時間內的收盤價，用於評估價格變動的速度 (快慢) 與變化 (幅度) 的技術分析工具，RSI藉由計算一段期間內股價的漲跌變化，判斷最近的趨勢屬於偏強 (偏多) 還是偏弱 (偏空)。
MACD Indicator (Moving Average Convergence & Divergence) - MACD is a technical analysis tool proposed by Gerald Appel in the 1970s. It is commonly used in trading to determine trend reversals by analyzing the convergence and divergence of fast and slow lines.
MACD 指標 (Moving Average Convergence & Divergence) 中文名為平滑異同移動平均線指標，MACD 是在 1970 年代由美國人 Gerald Appel 所提出，是一項歷史悠久且經常在交易中被使用的技術分析工具，原理是利用快慢線的交錯，藉以判斷股價走勢的轉折。
In MACD analysis, the most commonly used values are 12, 26, and 9, known as MACD (12,26,9). The market often uses the MACD indicator to determine the future direction of assets and to identify entry and exit points.
在 MACD 的技術分析中，最常用的值為 12 天、26 天、9 天，也稱為 MACD (12,26,9)，市場常用 MACD 指標來判斷操作標的的後市走向，確定波段漲幅並找到進、出場點。

I've added the ATR-MACD, developed earlier, as a filter signal alongside the classic MACD. The appearance of an upward-facing triangle indicates that the ATR MACD histogram also triggers the condition, aiming to serve as a filtering mechanism.
我在經典的macd作爲條件的同時 也加入了之前開發的ATR-MACD作爲過濾信號 出現朝上的三角圖示代表ATR MACD的柱狀圖一樣觸發條件 希望可以以此起到過濾的作用
Asset/Usage Instructions:
使用標的/使用説明
Through backtesting, it's found that it's not suitable for smaller time frames as there's a lot of noise. It's recommended to use it in assets with a long-term bullish view, focusing on time frames of 12 hours or longer such as 12H, 16H, 1D, 1W to find spot buying opportunities.
經過回測發現 并不適用與一些小級別時區 噪音會非常多，建議在一些長期看漲的標的中切入12小時以上的時區如12H，16H, 1D, 1W 中間尋找現貨買入的機會。
A few thoughts:
Overall, it's a very good indicator strategy for spot buying in the physical market. Thanks to member @KR陳 for sharing!
一些小感言 綜合來看是一個針對現貨買入非常好的指標策略，感謝群友@KR陳的分享！
