Updated Put/Call Ratio

Put/Call Ratio Indicator
This indicator visualizes the Put/Call Ratio for various market symbols, helping traders assess market sentiment and potential reversals. It offers a dropdown menu to select from a range of Put/Call Ratios, including broad equities (CBOE), major indices (SPX, QQQ, IWM, VIX), and individual stocks (TSLA, GOOG, META, AMZN, MSFT, INTC).
The indicator plots the Put/Call Ratio with adjustable moving averages and standard deviation bands to highlight overbought or oversold conditions. A short-term moving average (default: 10 periods) is displayed with trend-based coloring, while longer-term moving averages (defaults: 30 and 200 periods) are calculated but hidden by default. Bands at 1, 1.5, and 2 standard deviations provide context for extreme readings.
Key Overbought/Oversold Signals:
Short-Term Extremes: The 10-day moving average moves beyond 1 standard deviation from the 200-day moving average, signaling potential overbought (above) or oversold (below) conditions. This will be highlighted by red or green background color.
Ratio Extremes: The Put/Call Ratio line itself crosses outside 2 standard deviations from the 200-day moving average, indicating stronger overbought or oversold zones.
Conditional coloring of the ratio line reflects its position relative to the bands, and background shading highlights when the short-term moving average crosses key levels.
Key Features:
Selectable Put/Call Ratio symbols.
Trend-colored moving averages.
Standard deviation bands for volatility analysis.
Dynamic line and background coloring for quick insights.
Usage:
Use this indicator to gauge market sentiment—high ratios may suggest bearish sentiment or oversold conditions, while low ratios may indicate bullish sentiment or overbought conditions. Combine with price action or other tools for confirmation.
