IMI and MFI CombinedFor a strategy using the combined IMI (Intraday Momentum Index), MFI (Money Flow Index), and Bollinger Bands on a 1-minute chart of Bank NIFTY (Bank Nifty Index), here's how you can interpret the indicators and define a sell signal strategy:
Strategy Explanation:
IMI (Intraday Momentum Index):
IMI measures the ratio of upward price changes to downward price changes over a specified period, indicating momentum.
In the script, IMI is plotted with a range from 0 to 100. Levels above 75 are considered overbought, and levels below 25 are oversold.
Strategy Condition: A sell signal can be considered when IMI is above 75, indicating a potentially overbought market condition.
MFI (Money Flow Index):
MFI measures the strength of money flowing in and out of a security, using price and volume.
In the script, MFI is plotted with levels at 80 (overbought) and 20 (oversold).
Strategy Condition: A sell signal can be considered when MFI is above 80, suggesting an overbought condition in the market.
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands consist of a middle band (SMA) and upper/lower bands representing volatility levels around the price.
In the script, Bollinger Bands are plotted with a length of 20 and a standard deviation multiplier of 2.
Strategy Condition: While not explicitly used for generating sell signals in this script, Bollinger Bands can help confirm price volatility and potential reversals when combined with other indicators.
Sell Signal Criteria:
IMI Sell Signal: Look for instances where IMI rises above 75. This indicates that the recent upward price momentum may be reaching an unsustainable level, potentially signaling a reversal or a pullback in prices.
MFI Sell Signal: Look for MFI rising above 80. This suggests that the market has experienced strong buying pressure, possibly leading to an overbought condition where a price correction or reversal might occur.
Implementation Considerations:
Confirmation: Consider waiting for both IMI and MFI to confirm the overbought condition simultaneously before entering a sell trade. This can increase the reliability of the signal.
Risk Management: Use stop-loss orders to manage risk in case the market moves against the anticipated direction after the sell signal is triggered.
Timeframe: This strategy is tailored for a 1-minute chart, meaning signals should be interpreted and acted upon quickly due to the rapid nature of price movements in intraday trading.
By combining these indicators and interpreting their signals, you can develop a systematic approach to identifying potential sell opportunities in the Bank NIFTY index on a 1-minute timeframe. Adjustments to indicator parameters and additional technical analysis may further refine the strategy based on your trading preferences and risk tolerance.
Inside Candle - Multi TimeframesIndicator looks for inside candle on 3 timeframes. Chart's default timeframe and 2 higher timeframes to spot Inside candle on any of these timeframes.
Main purpose was to look at multiple inside candle at multiple timeframes to identify consolidation within consolidation and implement intraday, hence for 15min chart timeframe.
However, code works for all timeframes from 5 min to quarterly and higher timeframes will be picked automatically.

Advanced Keltner Channel/Oscillator [MyTradingCoder]This indicator combines a traditional Keltner Channel overlay with an oscillator, providing a comprehensive view of price action, trend, and momentum. The core of this indicator is its advanced ATR calculation, which uses statistical methods to provide a more robust measure of volatility.
Starting with the overlay component, the center line is created using a biquad low-pass filter applied to the chosen price source. This provides a smoother representation of price than a simple moving average. The upper and lower channel lines are then calculated using the statistically derived ATR, with an additional set of mid-lines between the center and outer lines. This creates a more nuanced view of price action within the channel.
The color coding of the center line provides an immediate visual cue of the current price momentum. As the price moves up relative to the ATR, the line shifts towards the bullish color, and vice versa for downward moves. This color gradient allows for quick assessment of the current market sentiment.
The oscillator component transforms the channel into a different perspective. It takes the price's position within the channel and maps it to either a normalized -100 to +100 scale or displays it in price units, depending on your settings. This oscillator essentially shows where the current price is in relation to the channel boundaries.
The oscillator includes two key lines: the main oscillator line and a signal line. The main line represents the current position within the channel, smoothed by an exponential moving average (EMA). The signal line is a further smoothed version of the oscillator line. The interaction between these two lines can provide trading signals, similar to how MACD is often used.
When the oscillator line crosses above the signal line, it might indicate bullish momentum, especially if this occurs in the lower half of the oscillator range. Conversely, the oscillator line crossing below the signal line could signal bearish momentum, particularly if it happens in the upper half of the range.
The oscillator's position relative to its own range is also informative. Values near the top of the range (close to 100 if normalized) suggest that price is near the upper Keltner Channel band, indicating potential overbought conditions. Values near the bottom of the range (close to -100 if normalized) suggest proximity to the lower band, potentially indicating oversold conditions.
One of the strengths of this indicator is how the overlay and oscillator work together. For example, if the price is touching the upper band on the overlay, you'd see the oscillator at or near its maximum value. This confluence of signals can provide stronger evidence of overbought conditions. Similarly, the oscillator hitting extremes can draw your attention to price action at the channel boundaries on the overlay.
The mid-lines on both the overlay and oscillator provide additional nuance. On the overlay, price action between the mid-line and outer line might suggest strong but not extreme momentum. On the oscillator, this would correspond to readings in the outer quartiles of the range.
The customizable visual settings allow you to adjust the indicator to your preferences. The glow effects and color coding can make it easier to quickly interpret the current market conditions at a glance.

Customizable: Adjust settings to fine-tune the indicator to your specific needs and trading style.
Visually Appealing: Clear and concise design for easy interpretation.
The ATR (Average True Range) in this indicator is derived using a sophisticated statistical method that differs from the traditional ATR calculation. It begins by calculating the True Range (TR) as the difference between the high and low of each bar. Instead of a simple moving average, it computes the Root Mean Square (RMS) of the TR over the specified period, giving more weight to larger price movements. The indicator then calculates a Z-score by dividing the TR by the RMS, which standardizes the TR relative to recent volatility. This Z-score is clamped to a maximum value (10 in this case) to prevent extreme outliers from skewing the results, and then rounded to a specified number of decimal places (2 in this script).
These rounded Z-scores are collected in an array, keeping track of how many times each value occurs. From this array, two key values are derived: the mode, which is the most frequently occurring Z-score, and the average, which is the weighted average of all Z-scores. These values are then scaled back to price units by multiplying by the RMS.
Now, let's examine how these values are used in the indicator. For the Keltner Channel lines, the mid lines (top and bottom) use the mode of the ATR, representing the most common volatility state. The max lines (top and bottom) use the average of the ATR, incorporating all volatility states, including less common but larger moves. By using the mode for the mid lines and the average for the max lines, the indicator provides a nuanced view of volatility. The mid lines represent the "typical" market state, while the max lines account for less frequent but significant price movements.
For the color coding of the center line, the mode of the ATR is used to normalize the price movement. The script calculates the difference between the current price and the price 'degree' bars ago (default is 2), and then divides this difference by the mode of the ATR. The resulting value is passed through an arctangent function and scaled to a 0-1 range. This scaled value is used to create a color gradient between the bearish and bullish colors.
Using the mode of the ATR for this color coding ensures that the color changes are based on the most typical volatility state of the market. This means that the color will change more quickly in low volatility environments and more slowly in high volatility environments, providing a consistent visual representation of price momentum relative to current market conditions.
Using a good IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) low-pass filter, such as the biquad filter implemented in this indicator, offers significant advantages over simpler moving averages like the EMA (Exponential Moving Average) or other basic moving averages.
At its core, an EMA is indeed a simple, single-pole IIR filter, but it has limitations in terms of its frequency response and phase delay characteristics. The biquad filter, on the other hand, is a two-pole, two-zero filter that provides superior control over the frequency response curve. This allows for a much sharper cutoff between the passband and stopband, meaning it can more effectively separate the signal (in this case, the underlying price trend) from the noise (short-term price fluctuations).
The improved frequency response of a well-designed biquad filter means it can achieve a better balance between smoothness and responsiveness. While an EMA might need a longer period to sufficiently smooth out price noise, potentially leading to more lag, a biquad filter can achieve similar or better smoothing with less lag. This is crucial in financial markets where timely information is vital for making trading decisions.
Moreover, the biquad filter allows for independent control of the cutoff frequency and the Q factor. The Q factor, in particular, is a powerful parameter that affects the filter's resonance at the cutoff frequency. By adjusting the Q factor, users can fine-tune the filter's behavior to suit different market conditions or trading styles. This level of control is simply not available with basic moving averages.
Another advantage of the biquad filter is its superior phase response. In the context of financial data, this translates to more consistent lag across different frequency components of the price action. This can lead to more reliable signals, especially when it comes to identifying trend changes or price reversals.
The computational efficiency of biquad filters is also worth noting. Despite their more complex mathematical foundation, biquad filters can be implemented very efficiently, often requiring only a few operations per sample. This makes them suitable for real-time applications and high-frequency trading scenarios.
Furthermore, the use of a more sophisticated filter like the biquad can help in reducing false signals. The improved noise rejection capabilities mean that minor price fluctuations are less likely to cause unnecessary crossovers or indicator movements, potentially leading to fewer false breakouts or reversal signals.
In the specific context of a Keltner Channel, using a biquad filter for the center line can provide a more stable and reliable basis for the entire indicator. It can help in better defining the overall trend, which is crucial since the Keltner Channel is often used for trend-following strategies. The smoother, yet more responsive center line can lead to more accurate channel boundaries, potentially improving the reliability of overbought/oversold signals and breakout indications.
In conclusion, this advanced Keltner Channel indicator represents a significant evolution in technical analysis tools, combining the power of traditional Keltner Channels with modern statistical methods and signal processing techniques. By integrating a sophisticated ATR calculation, a biquad low-pass filter, and a complementary oscillator component, this indicator offers traders a comprehensive and nuanced view of market dynamics.
The indicator's strength lies in its ability to adapt to varying market conditions, providing clear visual cues for trend identification, momentum assessment, and potential reversal points. The use of statistically derived ATR values for channel construction and the implementation of a biquad filter for the center line result in a more responsive and accurate representation of price action compared to traditional methods.
Furthermore, the dual nature of this indicator – functioning as both an overlay and an oscillator – allows traders to simultaneously analyze price trends and momentum from different perspectives. This multifaceted approach can lead to more informed decision-making and potentially more reliable trading signals.
The high degree of customization available in the indicator's settings enables traders to fine-tune its performance to suit their specific trading styles and market preferences. From adjustable visual elements to flexible parameter inputs, users can optimize the indicator for various trading scenarios and time frames.
Ultimately, while no indicator can predict market movements with certainty, this advanced Keltner Channel provides traders with a powerful tool for market analysis. By offering a more sophisticated approach to measuring volatility, trend, and momentum, it equips traders with valuable insights to navigate the complex world of financial markets. As with any trading tool, it should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis and within a well-defined risk management framework to maximize its potential benefits.

RSI with Bollinger Bands Scalp Startegy (1min)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The "RSI with Bollinger Bands Scalp Strategy (1min)" is a highly effective tool designed for traders who engage in short-term scalping on the 1-minute chart. This indicator combines the strengths of the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and Bollinger Bands to generate precise buy signals, helping traders make quick and informed decisions in fast-moving markets.
How It Works:
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI is a widely-used momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It operates on a scale of 0 to 100 and helps identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market.
This strategy allows customization of the RSI's lower and upper bands (default settings: 30 for the lower band and 70 for the upper band) and the RSI length (default: 14).
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands consist of a central moving average (the basis) and two bands that represent standard deviations above and below the basis. These bands expand and contract based on market volatility.
In this strategy, the Bollinger Bands are used to identify potential buy and sell signals based on the price's relationship to the upper and lower bands.
Signal Generation:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is triggered when two conditions are met:
The RSI value falls below the specified lower band, indicating an oversold condition.
The price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band.
The buy signal is then issued on the first positive candle (where the closing price is greater than or equal to the opening price) after these conditions are met.
Sell Signal: In this version of the strategy, the sell signal is currently disabled to focus solely on generating and optimizing the buy signals for scalping.
Strategy Highlights:
This indicator is particularly effective for traders who focus on 1-minute charts and want to capitalize on rapid price movements.
The combination of RSI and Bollinger Bands ensures that buy signals are only generated during significant oversold conditions, helping to filter out false signals.
Customization:
Users can adjust the RSI length, Bollinger Bands length, and the standard deviation multiplier to better fit their specific trading style and the asset they are trading.
The moving average type for Bollinger Bands can be selected from various options, including SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, and VWMA, allowing further customization based on individual preferences.
Usage:
Use this indicator on a 1-minute chart to identify potential buy opportunities during short-term price dips.
Since the sell signals are disabled, this strategy is best used in conjunction with other indicators or strategies to manage exit points effectively.
This "RSI with Bollinger Bands Scalp Strategy (1min)" indicator is a valuable tool for traders looking to enhance their short-term trading performance by focusing on high-probability entry points in volatile market conditions.
ka66: Bar Range BandsThis tool takes a bar's range, and reflects it above the high and below the low of that bar, drawing upper and lower bands around the bar. Repeated for each bar. There's an option to then multiply that range by some multiple. Use a value greater than 1 to get wider bands, and less than one to get narrower bands.
This tool stems out of my frustration from the use of dynamic bands (like Keltner Channels, or Bollinger Bands), in particular for estimating take profit points.
Dynamic bands work great for entries and stop loss, but their dynamism is less useful for a future event like taking profit, in my experience. We can use a smaller multiple, but then we can often lose out on a bigger chunk of gains unnecessarily.
The inspiration for this came from a friend explaining an ICT/SMC concept around estimating the magnitude of a trend, by calculating the Asian Session Range, and reflecting it above or below on to the New York and London sessions. He described this as standard deviation of the Asian Range, where the range can thus be multiplied by some multiple for a wider or narrower deviation.
This, in turn, also reminded me of the Measured Move concept in Technical Analysis. We then consider that the market is fractal in nature, and this is why patterns persist in most timeframes. Traders exist across the spectrum of timeframes. Thus, a single bar on a timeframe, is made up of multiple bars on a lower timeframe . In other words, when we reflect a bar's range above or below itself, in the event that in a lower timeframe, that bar fit a pattern whose take profit target could be estimated via a Measured Move , then the band's value becomes a more valid estimate of a take profit point .
Yet another way to think about it, by way of the fractal nature above, is that it is essentially a simplified dynamic support and resistance mechanism , even simpler than say the various Pivot calculations (e.g. Classical, Camarilla, etc.).
This tool in general, can also be used by those who manually backtest setups (and certainly can be used in an automated setting too!). It is a research tool in that regard, applicable to various setups.
One of the pitfalls of manual backtesting is that it requires more discipline to really determine an exit point, because it's easy to say "oh, I'll know more or less where to exit when I go live, I just want to see that the entry tends to work". From experience, this is a bad idea, because our mind subconsciously knows that we haven't got a trained reflex on where to exit. The setup may be decent, but without an exit point, we will never have truly embraced and internalised trading it. Again, I speak from experience!
Thus, to use this to research take profit/exit points:
Have a setup in mind, with all the entry rules.
Plot your setup's indicators, mark your signals.
Use this indicator to get an idea of where to exit after taking an entry based on your signal.

Tether Ratio ChannelTether Ratio Channel is an on-chain metric that tracks the ebb & flow of the ratio of BTC market cap / stablecoin market cap.
This ratio is relevant to traders, as it tends to lead total crypto market cap's short to medium term trend, and has for many years.
The ratio's most straightforwards visualization may be Stablecoin Supply Oscillator , a legacy on-chain metric that captures the ratio but isn't useful on its own as a trading tool.
Tether Ratio Channel builds on top of Stablecoin Supply Oscillator, to create a new metric that's:
Signal-generating , with clear entry & exit signals
Unambiguous , so use is mechanical
Optimized , with the intent to generate signals as close as possible to BTC local tops & bottoms
Normalized across its history , so each signal has a rich uniform history & context
METRIC CONSTRUCTION
Tether Ratio Channel is a higher timeframe RSI of Stablecoin Supply Oscillator, bound inside a bollinger band channel, normalized and smoothed for optimal signal clarity.
Instead of chart price as the source, the metric uses a proxy for stablecoin market cap:
(USDT + USDC + DAI) divided by BTC mkt cap
But it's named for Tether specifically, because USDT just completely dominates the asset class.
Default settings are very close to the on-chain metric original, but not identical. Settings are adjustable in the metric inputs.
VERTICAL LOCATION IN THE CHANNEL
The lower the yellow print is on the metric's Y-axis, the more upside potential total crypto market cap typically has.
The higher the yellow print is on the metric's Y-axis, the more downside risk most crypto assets typically have.
SWING TRADE SIGNALS
Tether Ratio Channel is signal-generating, a simple cross of the metric (the yellow line) and its weighted moving average (the white line) is the signal.
A bullish cross below the green horizontal target is a high conviction buy signal
A bullish cross above the green target is a lower conviction buy signal, but historically still tends to make for a good entry
Any bearish cross is typically a good time to take profits
Any bearish cross above 55 (on the metric's Y axis) tends to coincide with BTC local tops
Buy signals are visualized with a green vertical, and a background fill that persists until the next sell signal
High conviction buy signals (below the green line) also print an arrow, if enabled.
Background fills and arrow prints will only appear if the chart timeframe is equal to or lower than the 8H chart. (Or whatever the metric's timeframe input is set to, if the user changes default settings).
Adjustable Percentage Range Moving AverageAdjustable Percentage Range Moving Average (APRMA)
The Adjustable Percentage Range Moving Average (APRMA) is a technical analysis tool designed for traders and market analysts who seek a dynamic approach to understanding market volatility and trend identification. Unlike traditional moving averages, the APRMA incorporates user-adjustable percentage bands around a central moving average line, offering a customizable view of price action relative to its recent history.
Key Features:
Central Moving Average: At its core, APRMA calculates a moving average (type of your choice) of the price over a specified number of periods, serving as the baseline for the indicator.
Percentage Bands: Surrounding the moving average are four bands, two above and two below, set at user-defined percentages away from the central line. These bands expand and contract based on the percentage input, not on standard deviation like Bollinger Bands, which allows for a consistent visual interpretation of how far the price has moved from its average.
Customizability: Users can adjust:
The length of the moving average period to suit short-term, medium-term, or long-term analysis.
The percentage offset for the bands, enabling traders to set the sensitivity of the indicator according to the asset's volatility or their trading strategy.
Visual Interpretation:
When the price moves towards or beyond the upper band, it might indicate that the asset is potentially overbought or that a strong upward trend is in place.
Conversely, price action near or below the lower band could suggest an oversold condition or a strong downward trend.
The space between the bands can be used to gauge volatility; narrower bands suggest lower current volatility relative to the average, while wider bands indicate higher volatility.
Usage in Trading:
Trend Confirmation: A price staying above the moving average and pushing the upper band might confirm an uptrend, while staying below and testing the lower band could confirm a downtrend.
Reversion Strategies: Traders might look for price to revert to the mean (moving average) when it touches or crosses the bands, setting up potential entry or exit points.
Breakout Signals: A price moving decisively through a band after a period of consolidation within the bands might signal a breakout.
The APRMA provides a clear, adaptable framework for traders to visualize where the price stands in relation to its recent average, offering insights into potential overbought/oversold conditions, trend strength, and volatility, all tailored by the trader's strategic preferences.

📊 Market Analysis: Monitor the dynamic levels to identify potential reversal points. Use these levels to inform entry and exit points, or to set stop losses.
How It Works
This indicator employs a K-means clustering algorithm to dynamically identify key price levels based on the historical price data within a specified lookback window. It starts by initializing three centroids based on the highest, lowest, and an average between the highest and lowest price over the lookback period. The algorithm then iterates through the price data to cluster the prices around these centroids, dynamically adjusting them until they stabilize, representing potential support and resistance levels. These levels are further confirmed based on a separate confirmation length parameter to identify "fixed" levels, which are then drawn as horizontal lines on the chart. The script continuously updates these levels as new data comes in, while also removing older levels to keep the chart clean and relevant, offering traders a clear and adaptive view of market structure.
Uptrick: Momentum Channel Indicator
### 🌟 **Uptrick: Momentum Channel Indicator (MC_Ind)** 🌟
The **"Uptrick: Momentum Channel Indicator"** is a powerful tool designed to help traders gauge market momentum and identify potential overbought or oversold conditions. Whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or long-term investor, this indicator can be your compass 🧭 in the complex world of trading.
### 🎯 **Purpose of the Indicator**
The primary goal of the **Momentum Channel Indicator** is to measure the deviation of price from its moving average (the mid-point) and to smooth this deviation to identify momentum shifts. By plotting overbought and oversold levels, the indicator helps traders spot potential reversal points where the market might change direction, offering valuable entry or exit signals.
### 🔧 **Inputs & Parameters**
Let's break down the input parameters that you can adjust to tailor the indicator to your trading style:
1. **`length1` (Channel Length) 📏**: This is the period over which the moving average (mid-point) and price deviation are calculated. The default value is 14, meaning the last 14 bars are considered for calculations.
2. **`length2` (Smoothing Length) 🧘**: This parameter controls the smoothing of the channel index, with a default value of 28. The higher the value, the smoother the momentum line, reducing noise and making trends more visible.
3. **`overbought1` & `overbought2` (Overbought Levels) 🔴**: These levels, set at 70 and 65 by default, represent the threshold above which the market is considered overbought, potentially signaling a selling opportunity.
4. **`oversold1` & `oversold2` (Oversold Levels) 🟢**: Similarly, these levels, set at -70 and -65, mark the threshold below which the market is considered oversold, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
### 🛠️ **How the Indicator Works**
Now, let's dive into the mechanics of the Momentum Channel Indicator:
1. **Mid-Point Calculation 🏁**: The mid-point is calculated using a simple moving average (SMA) of the closing prices over the `length1` period. This mid-point acts as a reference line from which deviations are measured.
2. **Price Deviation 📊**: The price deviation is the absolute difference between the closing price and the mid-point, smoothed over the same period (`length1`). This represents the typical price movement away from the mid-point.
3. **Channel Index 📉**: The channel index is calculated by dividing the price deviation by a fraction (0.01) of the mid-point, providing a normalized measure of how far the price has deviated from the average.
4. **Smoothing of the Channel Index 🌊**: The smoothed index (`mci1`) is calculated by applying a smoothing filter (SMA) over the channel index using the `length2` parameter. This helps reduce noise and highlight the true momentum of the market.
5. **Momentum Lines 📈**:
- **`mci1`**: The main momentum line, representing the smoothed channel index.
- **`mci2`**: A secondary momentum line, which is a further smoothed version of `mci1` using a 6-period SMA.
6. **Signal Lines 🚦**:
- **Overbought & Oversold Levels**: Horizontal lines plotted at `overbought1`, `overbought2`, `oversold1`, and `oversold2` levels serve as visual cues for overbought and oversold conditions.
- **Zero Line**: A central reference line at 0, indicating neutral momentum.
### 📈 **How to Use the Indicator**
#### 1. **Day Traders ⚡**
For day traders, the Momentum Channel Indicator can be a quick signal generator for short-term trades. Here's how you can use it:
- **Identify Entry Points 🎯**: Look for a **bullish crossover** when `mci1` crosses above `mci2` from below the `oversold1` level. This signals a potential upward reversal.
- **Spot Exit Points 🏁**: Watch for a **bearish crossunder** when `mci1` crosses below `mci2` from above the `overbought1` level. This could indicate a downward reversal.
- **Scalping 🔄**: In a fast-moving market, use the indicator to scalp by entering and exiting trades at these crossover points, with a tight stop-loss strategy.
#### 2. **Swing Traders 🎢**
Swing traders benefit from using the Momentum Channel Indicator to identify potential reversal points over a longer period:
- **Trend Confirmation 📊**: Use the smoothing effect of `mci2` to confirm trends. If `mci2` remains consistently above 0, it indicates a strong bullish trend, and vice versa.
- **Overbought/Oversold Reversals 🚀**: Enter trades when the price approaches the overbought or oversold levels (`overbought1`, `oversold1`). Combine this with other indicators, such as RSI, for more reliable signals.
- **Hold Positions 🧗**: Let the momentum lines guide your hold strategy. If the momentum lines stay aligned (both `mci1` and `mci2` are moving in the same direction), consider holding the position until a crossover or reversal signal appears.
#### 3. **Long-Term Investors 🏦**
For long-term investors, the Momentum Channel Indicator helps in fine-tuning entry and exit points based on broader market momentum:
- **Divergence Analysis 📐**: Look for divergence between the price and the momentum lines. If the price makes new highs but the momentum lines do not, it could signal a weakening trend and a potential reversal.
- **Strategic Entry/Exit 🏹**: Use the `overbought2` and `oversold2` levels to strategically enter or exit positions. These secondary levels provide an early warning before the market reaches extreme conditions.
- **Risk Management 🛡️**: The indicator can also be used as part of a risk management strategy by identifying when to reduce exposure in overbought markets or increase exposure in oversold markets.
### 🖼️ **Visualization & Interpretation**
The Momentum Channel Indicator is visually intuitive, with each component providing key insights:
1. **Momentum Lines (MCI1 & MCI2) 📈**:
- **Blue Line (`mci1`)**: Represents the main momentum line, providing immediate insights into market direction.
- **Orange Line (`mci2`)**: A secondary momentum line, further smoothed to confirm trends.
2. **Overbought/Oversold Levels 🔴🟢**:
- **Solid & Dashed Lines**: These lines highlight overbought and oversold regions, guiding traders on when to consider entering or exiting trades.
3. **MCI Difference (Purple Area) 🌌**:
- **Shaded Area**: The difference between `mci1` and `mci2`, shaded in purple, helps visualize the strength of the momentum. The larger the shaded area, the stronger the momentum.
### 🚀 **Advanced Tips & Tricks**
For those looking to maximize the potential of the Momentum Channel Indicator, here are some advanced strategies:
1. **Combine with Volume Indicators 📊**: Use volume indicators like OBV (On-Balance Volume) or Volume Oscillator to confirm momentum signals. For instance, a bullish crossover combined with increasing volume can reinforce a buy signal.
2. **Multiple Timeframe Analysis 🕒**: Apply the Momentum Channel Indicator across multiple timeframes (e.g., daily and weekly) to get a more comprehensive view of the market. This can help in aligning short-term trades with long-term trends.
3. **Adjusting Parameters 🔄**: Depending on market conditions, tweak the `length1` and `length2` parameters. In a highly volatile market, shorter lengths might provide quicker signals, whereas in a stable market, longer lengths could smooth out noise.
4. **Divergence & Convergence 📐**: Watch for divergence between price and momentum lines as a leading indicator of potential reversals. Convergence (when the price and momentum move in sync) can confirm the strength of the trend.
### **Conclusion**
The **Uptrick: Momentum Channel Indicator** is a versatile tool that can be customized for various trading styles and market conditions. Whether you're trading in fast-paced environments or analyzing long-term trends, this indicator offers a clear and intuitive way to gauge market momentum, identify potential reversals, and make informed trading decisions.
By understanding and applying the principles outlined above, you can harness the full power of this indicator, transforming your trading strategy from good to great! 🌟
Gaussian Kernel Smoothing EMAGaussian Kernel Smoothing EMA
The Gaussian Kernel Smoothing EMA integrates the exponential moving average with kernel smoothing techniques to refine the trend tool. Kernel smoothing is a non-parametric technique used to estimate a smooth curve from a set of data points. It is particularly useful in reducing noise and capturing the underlying structure of data. The smoothed value at each point is calculated as a weighted average of neighboring points, with the weights determined by a kernel function.
The Gaussian kernel is a popular choice in kernel smoothing due to its properties of being smooth, symmetric, and having infinite support. This function gives higher weights to data points closer to the target point and lower weights to those further away, resulting in a smooth and continuous estimate. Since price isn't normally distributed a logarithmic transformation is performed to remove most of its skewness to be able to fit the Gaussian kernel.
This indicator also has a bandwidth, which in kernel smoothing controls the width of the window over which the smoothing is performed. It determines how much influence nearby data points have on the smoothed value. In this indicator, the bandwidth is dynamically adjusted based on the standard deviation of the log-transformed prices so that the smoothing adapts to the underlying variability and potential volatility.
Bandwidth Factor: The bandwidth factor in this indicator is used to adjust the degree of the smoothing applied to the MA. In kernel smoothing, Bandwidth controls the width of the window over which the smoothing is applied. It determines how many data points around a central point are considered when calculating a smooth value. A smaller bandwidth results in less smoothing, while a larger bandwidth smooths out more noise, leading to a broader, more general trend.
Big Candle Touches Bollinger BandWhat It Does:
This indicator helps you spot important trading signals by combining Bollinger Bands with big candles.
Key Features:
Bollinger Bands: These bands show the average price (middle band) and the range of price movement (upper and lower bands) over a set period. The bands widen when prices are more volatile and narrow when they are less volatile.
Big Candle Detection: A "big candle" is a candle that has a larger body compared to the average price movement over a period. This is determined using the Average True Range (ATR), which measures market volatility.
How It Works:
Detects Big Candles: It checks if a candle’s body (the difference between its open and close prices) is bigger than usual, based on a multiplier of the ATR.
Touching Bollinger Bands: It looks for candles that touch or cross the upper or lower Bollinger Bands.
Highlights Important Signals:
Sell Signal: When a big candle touches the upper Bollinger Band, it marks it as a "Sell" signal with a red label.
Buy Signal: When a big candle touches the lower Bollinger Band, it marks it as a "Buy" signal with a green label.
Alerts:
You'll get alerts when a big candle touches the upper or lower Bollinger Bands, so you don’t miss these potential trading opportunities.
Visuals:
Bollinger Bands: Shown as three lines on the chart — the upper band (red), the lower band (green), and the middle band (blue).
Labels: Red labels for sell signals and green labels for buy signals when a big candle touches the bands.
This indicator helps you identify potential trading opportunities by focusing on significant price movements and how they interact with the Bollinger Bands.
Artaking 2Components of the Indicator:
Moving Averages:
Short-Term Moving Average (MA): This is a 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) applied to the closing price. It is used to track the short-term trend of the market.
Long-Term Moving Average (MA): This is a 200-period SMA used to track the long-term trend.
Day Trading Moving Average: A 20-period SMA is used specifically for day trading signals, focusing on shorter-term price movements.
Purpose:
The crossing of these moving averages (short-term crossing above or below long-term) provides basic buy and sell signals, indicative of potential trend reversals or continuations.
ADX (Average Directional Index) for Trend Strength:
ADX Calculation: The ADX is calculated using a 14-period length with 14-period smoothing. The ADX value indicates the strength of a trend, regardless of direction.
Strong Trend Condition: The indicator considers a trend to be strong if the ADX value is above 25. This threshold helps filter out trades during weak or sideways markets.
Purpose:
To ensure that the strategy only generates signals when there is a strong trend, thus avoiding whipsaws in low volatility or range-bound conditions.
Support Levels:
Support Level Calculation: The indicator calculates the lowest close over the last 100 periods. This level is used to identify significant support zones where the price might find a floor.
Purpose:
Support levels are critical in identifying potential areas where the price might bounce, making them ideal for setting stop losses or identifying buy opportunities.
Volatility Spike (Proxy for News Trading):
ATR (Average True Range) Calculation: The indicator uses a 14-period ATR to measure market volatility. A volatility spike is identified when the ATR is greater than 1.5 times the 14-period SMA of the ATR.
Purpose:
This serves as a proxy for news events or other sudden market movements that could make the market unpredictable. The indicator avoids generating signals during these periods to reduce the risk of being caught in a volatile, potentially news-driven move.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
61.8% Fibonacci Level: Calculated from the highest high and lowest low over the long MA period, this retracement level is widely regarded as a significant support or resistance level.
Purpose:
Position traders often use Fibonacci levels to identify potential reversal points. The indicator incorporates the 61.8% level to fine-tune entries and exits.
Candlestick Patterns for Price Action Trading:
Bullish Engulfing Pattern: A bullish reversal pattern where a green candle fully engulfs the previous red candle.
Bearish Engulfing Pattern: A bearish reversal pattern where a red candle fully engulfs the previous green candle.
Purpose:
These patterns are classic signals used in price action trading to identify potential reversals at key levels, especially when they align with other conditions like support/resistance or Fibonacci levels.
Signal Generation:
The indicator generates buy and sell signals by combining the above elements:
Buy Signal:
A buy signal is triggered when:
The short-term MA crosses above the long-term MA (indicating a potential uptrend).
The trend is strong (ADX > 25).
The current price is near or below the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, suggesting a potential reversal.
No significant volatility spike is detected, ensuring the market isn’t reacting unpredictably to news.
Sell Signal:
A sell signal is triggered when:
The short-term MA crosses below the long-term MA (indicating a potential downtrend).
The trend is strong (ADX > 25).
The current price is near or above the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, suggesting potential resistance.
No significant volatility spike is detected.
Day Trading Signals:
Independent of the main trend signals, the indicator also generates intraday buy and sell signals when the price crosses above or below the 20-period day trading MA.
Price Action Signals:
The indicator can trigger buy or sell signals based purely on price action, such as the occurrence of bullish or bearish engulfing patterns. This is optional and can be enabled or disabled.
Alerts:
The indicator includes built-in alert conditions that notify the trader when a buy or sell signal is generated. This allows traders to act immediately without having to constantly monitor the charts.
Practical Application:
This indicator is versatile and can be used across various trading styles:
Position Trading: The long-term MA, Fibonacci retracement, and ADX provide a solid foundation for identifying long-term trends and potential entry/exit points.
Day Trading: The short-term MA and day trading MA offer quick signals for intraday trading.
Price Action: Candlestick pattern recognition allows for precise entry points based on market sentiment and behavior.
News Trading: The volatility spike filter helps avoid trading during periods of market instability, often driven by news events.
Conclusion:
The Comprehensive Trading Strategy Indicator is a robust tool designed to help traders navigate various market conditions by integrating multiple strategies into a single, coherent framework. It provides clear, actionable signals while filtering out potentially dangerous trades during volatile or weak market conditions. Whether you're a long-term trader, a day trader, or someone who relies on price action, this indicator can be a valuable addition to your trading toolkit.
Prometheus TTM SqueezeThe TTM indicator is an indicator used to better understand an underlying’s direction and volatility. Positive values indicate a rising price, negative falling. There is also an element of the underlying's volatility, explained below.
When, in this particular indicator, the zero line is the aqua color, that means that the volatility has picked up. In literal terms, it means that the upper Keltner Channel is above the upper Bollinger Band and the lower Keltner Channel is below the lower Bollinger Band. The range of the Keltner Channels is greater than the range of the Bollinger bands. What this is supposed to correlate to with price action is a more volatile choppier area. See below.
This is an example of volatility picking up being shown as the speed of the underlying. When the line turns aqua the move following tends to be sharp in the respective direction. Not a smooth delivery of price.
Regarding why this script is different from the others, with this script you do not need to input a bar's back value if you do not want to. Bars back being the amount of bars used in the indicator calculation. This is because of the use of Sum of Squared Errors, or SSE. How we do it is we calculate a Simple Moving Average or SMA and the indicator using a lot of different bars back values. Then if there is an event, characterized by the oscillator crossing over or under the 0 line, we subtract the close by the SMA and square it. If there is no event we return a big value, we want the error to be as small as possible. Because we loop over every value for bars back, we get the value with the smallest error. Or the SMA closest to the price ensuring we are following it as close as we can. This also becomes the value used as the multiplier for the Keltner Channels and Bollinger Bands, we simply divide them by 10 to normalize it. This leads to ease of use. A user does not need to worry about finding the best bars back for each ticker and time frame. We have you covered! SSE is not to be regarded to be the best given values for a pocket of the market, simply an estimation.
Of course we have the option for users to enter their own bars back or multipliers. Here is a comparison of the SSE at work and a 20 period bar’s back with 2 as the multiplier on a 4 hour $QQQ.
The top one is the SSE, the bottom is 20. I turned off showing the SMA, and alerts for better visibility. We see the SSE version does not cross above 0 again until the trend totally reverses. I would much rather overestimate risk than underestimate it.
The BULL and BEAR plotted on the chart is a result of the following conditions. A BULL if the price is above our auto optimized SMA and the oscillator crosses over 0. BEAR is the opposite, price below the SMA and an oscillator cross below 0. Here is the Daily NYSE:PLTR chart to show some.
Users have the options to toggle on and off the BULL and BEAR plots, SMA, as well as input their own lookback and multipliers.
We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly, none are 100% accurate. SSE does not guarantee that the values generated will be the best for a given moment in time. Please comment on any desired updates, all criticism is welcome!

**Title:** God's of Liquidity
**Description:**
The "Gods of Liquidity" script is a comprehensive trading tool designed to help traders identify high-probability buy and sell opportunities based on a combination of liquidity levels, RSI-based sentiment analysis, and session-specific filters.
**Key Features:**
1. **Liquidity Zones Identification:**
- The script dynamically calculates the previous day's high and low levels, which serve as critical liquidity zones. Traders can use these levels to spot potential breakout points and reversals.
2. **RSI-Based Sentiment Analysis:**
- The script incorporates a sophisticated RSI-based sentiment model that differentiates between institutional (Banker) and retail (Hot Money) activity. This dual RSI approach allows traders to gauge market sentiment and anticipate shifts in momentum.
- **Banker RSI:** Measures the sentiment of institutional traders, with customizable sensitivity and period parameters.
- **Hot Money RSI:** Measures retail trader sentiment, with its own adjustable settings to tailor the script to various market conditions.
3. **Session and Day Filters:**
- Traders can restrict signals to specific trading sessions and days of the week, providing greater control and precision in executing trades. This feature is particularly useful for aligning trading activity with market conditions that best suit the strategy.
4. **Breakout and Reversal Signals:**
- The script generates buy signals when the price breaks above the previous day's high, accompanied by bullish RSI sentiment from institutional traders. Conversely, sell signals are generated when the price breaks below the previous day's low, with bearish institutional sentiment.
- These signals are visually marked on the chart, making it easier for traders to identify potential trading opportunities.
5. **Customizable Moving Averages:**
- The script allows users to customize the moving averages used in the RSI calculations, giving traders the flexibility to adapt the tool to their specific trading style and market conditions.
6. **Alert System:**

Prometheus Cauchy ProbabilityThe Cauchy probability distribution is a distribution that is better suited to be used on non normal data, such as stock returns. Markets characterized by volatility and fat-tails can be better modeled like this.
This script provides two values to a user. The blue line represents the probability for the underlying to rise. The purple line represents its probability to fall. Rise and fall by how much? By default a prediction of 0.5% is set, but users can adjust it. The script automatically calculates based on how many bars would be in an entire day. For example there are 390 minutes from 9:30am to 4:00pm est. time so the script uses 390 bars. Users have the option to set a custom bars back length.
Developer’s note. This script works best with extended market hours on. Every example shown will have it on. The more price and volatility the better!
Code breakdown:
cauchy_cdf(x, x0, gamma)=>
1 / math.pi * math.atan((x - x0) / gamma) + 0.5
This function is what calculates the Cauchy cumulative density function.
// Calculate x and gamma
x = close * (1 + pred)
x0 = hi
gamma := ta.stdev(close, Len, false)
y = cauchy_cdf(x, x0, gamma)
//down
x_lo = close * (1 - pred)
x0_lo = lo
y_lo = cauchy_cdf(x_lo, x0_lo, gamma)
x represents the target price. x0 represents the current highest price of the day. Gamma is the standard deviation of prices over the desired length. x_lo, x0_lo, are variables to determine the probability of falling. Inputting these values into the function we get back our chance of rising and falling. Our blue and purple line.
Trade Examples:
Step 1: After a move down there is some choppiness, the values are close to each other and moving sharply.
Step 2: The chance to rise (Blue Line) strongly moves above the chance to fall (Purple Line), uptrend ensues.
Step 3: Small breaks below the purple line show breaks in the overall trend.
Step 4: Strong move down in price, and up in purple line end up trend.
Step 1: Strong cross in purple and blue line, marking the start of a downtrend.
Step 2: Small breaks above the purple line show breaks in the overall trend.
Step 3: Strong move up in price, and up in the blue line end downtrend.
Day trading example:
Custom input:
Step 1: Pre market weakness ends with a move up in the blue line and price.
Step 2: Consolidation in the uptrend with a small downtrend and above the purple line.
Step 3: Strong move up in price, and up in the blue line end consolidation and resumes strong uptrend.
This example is with custom input: 100 bars back, and 1% prediction.
Step 1: Downtrend starts after a big move up.
Step 2: Big crossover in blue and purple line. Uptrend starts.
Step 3: Lines get close signaling choppiness.
Step 4: Purple crosses over blue ending uptrend.
No indicator is 100% accurate, we encourage traders to use them along with their own discretion. Please use these tools with your own decision making. Comments about desired features and updates are encouraged!
ICT NWOG/NDOG Gaps [TradingFinder] New Opening Gaps🔵 Introduction
🟣 Understanding ICT Opening Gaps
In the realm of technical analysis, mastering the art of recognizing market behavior and pinpointing key price levels is vital for making sound trading decisions. Among the array of tools available, the concept of opening gaps stands out for its ability to provide crucial insights.
The ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology offers a distinctive approach to understanding the importance of New Day Opening Gaps (NDOG), New Week Opening Gaps (NWOG), and New Monthly Opening Gaps (NMOG).
These gaps, representing the price differences between the close of a previous period and the open of the next, serve as key reference points that can greatly impact price movements.
The ICT trading approach highlights these gaps as potential zones of support and resistance. Prices often respond to these areas, either bouncing off or passing through and then retesting them. Within these gaps, significant levels such as the high and low are particularly important.
Additionally, the Event Horizon PD Array (EHPDA) concept, which is an intermediate level calculated from the average of neighboring NWOGs or NDOGs, adds another layer to this analysis.
This guide delves into ICT's New Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Opening Ranges, showing how these gaps can be effectively utilized in trading. By grasping the nuances of these gaps, traders can better forecast market behavior, identify key support and resistance levels, and refine their trading strategies.
🟣 The Gaps
1. New Week Opening Gap (NWOG) : The NWOG is the price gap between Friday's closing price and Sunday's opening price. This gap is particularly crucial for traders who monitor weekly trends. Depending on the direction of the gap, the NWOG often serves as a pivotal support or resistance level.
2. New Day Opening Gap (NDOG) : The NDOG signifies the price difference between the closing price of the previous day and the opening price of the current day. Much like the NWOG, the NDOG is a key reference point for intraday traders.
Prices typically react to these levels, either reversing or continuing through the gap after a retest. NDOGs are instrumental in identifying short-term support and resistance levels, aiding traders in making decisions based on daily price movements.
3. New Monthly Opening Gap (NMOG) : The NMOG represents the gap between the closing price of the previous month and the opening price of the current month.
This gap is especially valuable for traders focusing on long-term trends and macroeconomic factors. As with NWOGs and NDOGs, the NMOG can act as a significant support or resistance level.
🔵 How to Use
Identifying Support and Resistance : Opening gaps often indicate potential zones where prices might reverse or find support/resistance. For example, if a new day opens below the previous day’s close (creating a NDOG), this gap could act as resistance, prompting traders to consider short positions if the price retests this level without breaking through.
Conversely, if the price opens above the previous day’s close, the gap might serve as support, offering a potential entry point for long trades.
Gap Fill Strategy : A popular strategy associated with opening gaps is the "gap fill" approach, where traders anticipate that the price will eventually return to fill the gap.
For instance, if there’s a significant NDOG at market open, a trader might expect the price to retrace back to the previous day’s close, effectively "filling" the gap. This strategy is particularly effective in markets that exhibit mean-reverting behavior.
Combining Gaps with Other Indicators : Traders often enhance their analysis of NDOG, NWOG, and NMOG by integrating other technical indicators. Aligning gap levels with tools such as Fibonacci retracements, moving averages, or existing support and resistance zones can provide additional confirmation for trade entries and exits.
🔵 Setting
Show and Color : You can control the display or non-display of the range as well as the color of the range.
Max Opening Range Update Method : You can control the number of ranges that are updated. If it is "All", all ranges that are not mitigated will be displayed. If "Custom", the ranges will be updated based on the number you specify.
Max Opening Range Update : The number of ranges to update.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT New Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Opening Ranges provide traders with a systematic approach to understanding market dynamics and identifying critical support and resistance levels.
By analyzing these gaps, traders can gain deeper insights into potential price movements, spot high-probability trade setups, and strengthen their overall trading strategy. Whether you are focused on short-term day trading or long-term market trends, incorporating NDOG, NWOG, and NMOG analysis into your trading plan can be a powerful addition to your toolkit.

How It Works
The Hullinger Percentile Oscillator calculates its signals by applying a modified standard deviation approach to the Hull Moving Average (HMA) of a selected price source. It creates both inner and outer bands based on different multipliers. The oscillator then measures the position of the price relative to these bands, smoothing the result for swing trend detection. Depending on the chosen mode, the oscillator either highlights swing trends or potential reversals. Divergences are detected by comparing recent pivot highs and lows in both price and the oscillator, allowing you to spot bullish or bearish divergence setups. Alerts are triggered based on key crossovers or when specific conditions are met, ensuring that you are always informed of crucial market developments.
