1. WHY THIS INDICATOR IS DIFFERENT
Most traders use multiple separate indicators on their charts, leading to cluttered screens, conflicting signals, and analysis paralysis. The Suite solves this by integrating proven technical tools into a single, cohesive system.
Key Advantages:
All-in-One Design: Instead of loading 5-10 separate indicators, you get everything in one optimized script. This reduces chart clutter and improves TradingView performance.
Multi-Timeframe Bias Table: Unlike standard indicators that only show the current timeframe, the Bias Table aggregates trend signals across multiple timeframes simultaneously. See at a glance whether 1m, 5m, 15m, 1h are aligned bullish or bearish - no more switching between charts.
Smart Confirmations: The indicator doesn't just give signals - it shows you WHY. Every entry has multiple layers of confirmation (MA cross, MACD momentum, ADX strength, RSI pullback, volume, etc.) that you can toggle on/off.
Dynamic Stop Loss System: Instead of static ATR stops, the SL is calculated from multiple support/resistance layers: UT trailing line, Supertrend, VWAP, swing structure, and MA levels. This creates more intelligent, price-action-aware stops.
R-Multiple Take Profits: Built-in TP system calculates targets based on your initial risk (1R, 1.5R, 2R, 3R). Lines freeze when touched with visual checkmarks, giving you a clean audit trail of partial exits.
Educational Tooltips Everywhere: Every single input has detailed tooltips explaining what it does, typical values, and how it impacts trading. You're not guessing - you're learning as you configure.
Performance Optimized: Smart caching, conditional calculations, and modular design mean the indicator runs fast despite having 15+ features. Turn off what you don't use for even better performance.
No Repainting: All signals respect bar close. Alerts fire correctly. What you see in history is what you would have gotten in real-time.
What Makes It Unique:
Integrated UT Bot + Bias Table: No other indicator combines UT Bot's ATR trailing system with a live multi-timeframe dashboard. You get precision entries with macro trend context.
Candlestick Pattern Recognition with Interactive Tooltips: Patterns aren't just marked - hover over any emoji for a full explanation of what the pattern means and how to trade it.
Opening Range Breakout Tracker: Built-in ORB system for intraday traders with customizable session times and real-time status updates in the Bias Table.
Previous Day High/Low Auto-Detection: Automatically plots PDH/PDL on intraday charts with theme-aware colors. Updates daily without manual input.
Dynamic Row Labels in Bias Table: The table shows your actual settings (e.g., "EMA 10 > SMA 20") not generic labels. You know exactly what's being evaluated.
Modular Filter System: Instead of forcing a fixed methodology, the indicator lets you build your own strategy. Start with just UT Bot, add filters one at a time, test what works for your style.
---
2. WHO WHOULD USE THIS
Designed For:
Intermediate to Advanced Traders: You understand basic technical analysis (MAs, RSI, MACD) and want to combine multiple confirmations efficiently. This isn't a "one-click profit" system - it's a professional toolkit.
Multi-Timeframe Traders: If you trade one asset but check multiple timeframes for confirmation (e.g., enter on 5m after checking 15m and 1h alignment), the Bias Table will save you hours every week.
Trend Followers: The indicator excels at identifying and following trends using UT Bot, Supertrend, and MA systems. If you trade breakouts and pullbacks in trending markets, this is built for you.
Intraday and Swing Traders: Works equally well on 5m-1h charts (day trading) and 4h-D charts (swing trading). Scalpers can use it too with appropriate settings adjustments.
Discretionary Traders: This isn't a black-box system. You see all the components, understand the logic, and make final decisions. Perfect for traders who want tools, not automation.
Works Across All Markets:
Stocks (US, international)
Cryptocurrency (24/7 markets supported)
Forex pairs
Indices (SPY, QQQ, etc.)
Commodities
NOT Ideal For:
Complete Beginners: If you don't know what a moving average or RSI is, start with basics first. This indicator assumes foundational knowledge.
Algo Traders Seeking Black Box: This is discretionary. Signals require context and confirmation. Not suitable for blind automated execution.
Mean-Reversion Only Traders: The indicator is trend-following at its core. While VWAP bands support mean-reversion, the primary methodology is trend continuation.
---
3. CORE COMPONENTS OVERVIEW
The indicator combines these proven systems:
Trend Analysis:
Moving Averages: Four customizable MAs (Fast, Medium, Medium-Long, Long) with six types to choose from (EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA, HMA). Mix and match for your style.
Supertrend: ATR-based trend indicator with unique gradient fill showing trend strength. One-sided ribbon visualization makes it easier to see momentum building or fading.
ZLSMA: Zero-lag linear-regression smoothed moving average. Reduces lag compared to traditional MAs while maintaining smooth curves.
Momentum & Filters:
MACD: Standard MACD with separation filter to avoid weak crossovers.
RSI: Pullback zone detection - only enter longs when RSI is in your defined "buy zone" and shorts in "sell zone".
ADX/DMI: Trend strength measurement with directional filter. Ensures you only trade when there's actual momentum.
Volume Filter: Relative volume confirmation - require above-average volume for entries.
Donchian Breakout: Optional channel breakout requirement.
Signal Systems:
UT Bot: The primary signal generator. ATR trailing stop that adapts to volatility and gives clear entry/exit points.
Base Signals: MA cross system with all the above filters applied. More conservative than UT Bot alone.
Visual Intelligence:
Market Bias Table: Multi-timeframe dashboard showing trend alignment across 7 timeframes plus macro bias (3-day, weekly, monthly, quarterly, VIX).
Candlestick Patterns: Six major reversal patterns auto-detected with interactive tooltips.
ORB Tracker: Opening range high/low with breakout status (intraday only).
PDH/PDL: Previous day levels plotted automatically on intraday charts.
VWAP + Bands: Session-anchored VWAP with up to three standard deviation band pairs.
---
4. THE UT BOT TRADING SYSTEM
The UT Bot is the heart of the indicator's signal generation. It's an advanced ATR trailing stop that adapts to market volatility.
Why UT Bot is Superior to Fixed Stops:
Traditional ATR stops use a fixed multiplier (e.g., "stop = entry - 2×ATR"). UT Bot is smarter:
It TRAILS the stop as price moves in your favor
It WIDENS during high volatility to avoid premature stops
It TIGHTENS during consolidation to lock in profits
It FLIPS when price breaks the trailing line, signaling reversals
Visual Elements You'll See:
Orange Trailing Line: The actual UT stop level that adapts bar-by-bar
Buy/Sell Labels: Aqua triangle (long) or orange triangle (short) when the line flips
ENTRY Line: Horizontal line at your entry price (optional, can be turned off)
Suggested Stop Loss: A composite SL calculated from multiple support/resistance layers:
- UT trailing line
- Supertrend level
- VWAP
- Swing structure (recent lows/highs)
- Long-term MA (200)
- ATR-based floor
Take Profit Lines: TP1, TP1.5, TP2, TP3 based on R-multiples. When price touches a TP, it's marked with a checkmark and the line freezes for audit trail purposes.
Status Messages: "SL Touched ❌" or "SL Frozen" when the trade leg completes.
How UT Bot Differs from Other ATR Systems:
Multiple Filters Available: You can require 2-bar confirmation, minimum % price change, swing structure alignment, or ZLSMA directional filter. Most UT implementations have none of these.
Smart SL Calculation: Instead of just using the UT line as your stop, the indicator suggests a better SL based on actual support/resistance. This prevents getting stopped out by wicks while keeping risk controlled.
Visual Audit Trail: All SL/TP lines freeze when touched with clear markers. You can review your trades weeks later and see exactly where entries, stops, and targets were.
Performance Options: "Draw UT visuals only on bar close" lets you reduce rendering load without affecting logic or alerts - critical for slower machines or 1m charts.
Trading Logic:
UT Bot flips direction (Buy or Sell signal appears)
Check Bias Table for multi-timeframe confirmation
Optional: Wait for Base signal or candlestick pattern
Enter at signal bar close or next bar open
Place stop at "Suggested Stop Loss" line
Scale out at TP levels (TP1, TP2, TP3)
Exit remaining position on opposite UT signal or stop hit

5. UNDERSTANDING THE MARKET BIAS TABLE
This is the indicator's unique multi-timeframe intelligence layer. Instead of looking at one chart at a time, the table aggregates signals across seven timeframes plus macro trend bias.
Why Multi-Timeframe Analysis Matters:
Professional traders check higher and lower timeframes for context:
Is the 1h uptrend aligning with my 5m entry?
Are all short-term timeframes bullish or just one?
Is the daily trend supportive or fighting me?
Doing this manually means opening multiple charts, checking each indicator, and making mental notes. The Bias Table does it automatically in one glance.
Table Structure:
Header Row:
On intraday charts: 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h, 4h (toggle which ones you want)
On daily+ charts: D, W, M (automatic)
Green dot (🟢) next to title = live updating
Headline Rows - Macro Bias:
These show broad market direction over longer periods:
3 Day Bias: Trend over last 3 trading sessions (uses 1h data)
Weekly Bias: Trend over last 5 trading sessions (uses 4h data)
Monthly Bias: Trend over last 30 daily bars
Quarterly Bias: Trend over last 13 weekly bars
VIX Fear Index: Market regime based on VIX level - bullish when low, bearish when high
Opening Range Breakout: Status of price vs. session open range (intraday only)
These rows show text: "BULLISH✔️", "BEARISH✖️", or "NEUTRAL⚠️"
Indicator Rows - Technical Signals:
These evaluate your configured indicators across all active timeframes:
Fast MA > Medium MA (shows your actual MA settings, e.g., "EMA 10 > SMA 20")
Price > Long MA (e.g., "Price > SMA 200")
Price > VWAP
MACD > Signal
Supertrend (up/down/neutral)
ZLSMA Rising
RSI In Zone
ADX ≥ Minimum
These rows show emojis: 🟩 (bullish), 🟥 (bearish), 🟡 (neutral/NA)
AVG Column:
Shows percentage of active timeframes that are bullish for that row. This is the KEY metric:
AVG > 70% = strong multi-timeframe bullish alignment
AVG 40-60% = mixed/choppy, no clear trend
AVG < 30% = strong multi-timeframe bearish alignment
How to Use the Table:
For a long trade:
Check AVG column - want to see > 60% ideally
Check headline bias rows - want to see BULLISH, not BEARISH
Check VIX row - bullish market regime preferred
Check ORB row (intraday) - want ABOVE for longs
Scan indicator rows - more green = better confirmation
For a short trade:
Check AVG column - want to see < 40% ideally
Check headline bias rows - want to see BEARISH, not BULLISH
Check VIX row - bearish market regime preferred
Check ORB row (intraday) - want BELOW for shorts
Scan indicator rows - more red = better confirmation
When AVG is 40-60%:
Market is choppy, mixed signals. Either stay out or reduce position size significantly. These are low-probability environments.
Unique Features:
Dynamic Labels: Row names show your actual settings (e.g., "EMA 10 > SMA 20" not generic "Fast > Slow"). You know exactly what's being evaluated.
Customizable Rows: Turn off rows you don't care about. Only show what matters to your strategy.
Customizable Timeframes: On intraday charts, disable 1m or 4h if you don't trade them. Reduces calculation load by 20-40%.
Automatic HTF Handling: On Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts, the table automatically switches to D/W/M columns. No configuration needed.
Performance Smart: "Hide BIAS table on 1D or above" option completely skips all table calculations on higher timeframes if you only trade intraday.
---
6. CANDLESTICK PATTERN RECOGNITION
The indicator automatically detects six major reversal patterns and marks them with emojis at the relevant bars.
Why These Six Patterns:
These are the most statistically significant reversal patterns according to trading literature:
High win rate when appearing at support/resistance
Clear visual structure (not subjective)
Work across all timeframes and assets
Studied extensively by institutions
The Patterns:
Bullish Patterns (appear at bottoms):
🔺 Bullish Engulfing: Green candle completely engulfs prior red candle's body. Strong reversal signal.
🔨 Hammer: Small body with long lower wick (at least 2× body size). Shows rejection of lower prices by buyers.
🌅 Morning Star: Three-candle pattern (large red → small indecision → large green). Very strong bottom reversal.
Bearish Patterns (appear at tops):
🔻 Bearish Engulfing: Red candle completely engulfs prior green candle's body. Strong reversal signal.
🌠 Shooting Star: Small body with long upper wick (at least 2× body size). Shows rejection of higher prices by sellers.
🌆 Evening Star: Three-candle pattern (large green → small indecision → large red). Very strong top reversal.
Interactive Tooltips:
Unlike most pattern indicators that just draw shapes, this one is educational:
Hover your mouse over any pattern emoji
A tooltip appears explaining: what the pattern is, what it means, when it's most reliable, and how to trade it
No need to memorize - learn as you trade
Noise Filter:
"Min candle body % to filter noise" setting prevents false signals:
Patterns require minimum body size relative to price
Filters out tiny candles that don't represent real buying/selling pressure
Adjust based on asset volatility (higher % for crypto, lower for low-volatility stocks)
How to Trade Patterns:
Patterns are NOT standalone entry signals. Use them as:
Confirmation: UT Bot gives signal + pattern appears = stronger entry
Reversal Warning: In a trade, opposite pattern appears = consider tightening stop or taking profit
Support/Resistance Validation: Pattern at key level (PDH, VWAP, MA 200) = level is being respected
Best combined with:
UT Bot or Base signal in same direction
Bias Table alignment (AVG > 60% or < 40%)
Appearance at obvious support/resistance
---
7. VISUAL TOOLS AND FEATURES
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price):
Session-anchored VWAP with standard deviation bands. Shows institutional "fair value" for the trading session.
Anchor Options: Session, Day, Week, Month, Quarter, Year. Choose based on your trading timeframe.
Bands: Up to three pairs (X1, X2, X3) showing statistical deviation. Price at outer bands often reverses.
Auto-Hide on HTF: VWAP hides on Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts automatically unless you enable anchored mode.
Use VWAP as:
Directional bias (above = bullish, below = bearish)
Mean reversion levels (outer bands)
Support/resistance (the VWAP line itself)
Previous Day High/Low:
Automatically plots yesterday's high and low on intraday charts:
Updates at start of each new trading day
Theme-aware colors (dark text for light charts, light text for dark charts)
Hidden automatically on Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts
These levels are critical for intraday traders - institutions watch them closely as support/resistance.
Opening Range Breakout (ORB):
Tracks the high/low of the first 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes of the trading session:
Customizable session times (preset for NYSE, LSE, TSE, or custom)
Shows current breakout status in Bias Table row (ABOVE, BELOW, INSIDE, BUILDING)
Intraday only - auto-disabled on Daily+ charts
ORB is a classic day trading strategy - breakout above opening range often leads to continuation.
Extra Labels:
Change from Open %: Shows how far price has moved from session open (intraday) or daily open (HTF). Green if positive, red if negative.
ADX Badge: Small label at bottom of last bar showing current ADX value. Green when above your minimum threshold, red when below.
RSI Badge: Small label at top of last bar showing current RSI value with zone status (buy zone, sell zone, or neutral).
These labels provide quick at-a-glance confirmation without needing separate indicator windows.

8. HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
Step 1: Add to Chart
Load the indicator on your chosen asset and timeframe
First time: Everything is enabled by default - the chart will look busy
Don't panic - you'll turn off what you don't need
Step 2: Start Simple
Turn OFF everything except:
UT Bot labels (keep these ON)
Bias Table (keep this ON)
Moving Averages (Fast and Medium only)
Suggested Stop Loss and Take Profits
Hide everything else initially. Get comfortable with the basic UT Bot + Bias Table workflow first.
Step 3: Learn the Core Workflow
UT Bot gives a Buy or Sell signal
Check Bias Table AVG column - do you have multi-timeframe alignment?
If yes, enter the trade
Place stop at Suggested Stop Loss line
Scale out at TP levels
Exit on opposite UT signal
Trade this simple system for a week. Get a feel for signal frequency and win rate with your settings.
Step 4: Add Filters Gradually
If you're getting too many losing signals (whipsaws in choppy markets), add filters one at a time:
Try: "Require 2-Bar Trend Confirmation" - wait for 2 bars to confirm direction
Try: ADX filter with minimum threshold - only trade when trend strength is sufficient
Try: RSI pullback filter - only enter on pullbacks, not chasing
Try: Volume filter - require above-average volume
Add one filter, test for a week, evaluate. Repeat.
Step 5: Enable Advanced Features (Optional)
Once you're profitable with the core system, add:
Supertrend for additional trend confirmation
Candlestick patterns for reversal warnings
VWAP for institutional anchor reference
ORB for intraday breakout context
ZLSMA for low-lag trend following
Step 6: Optimize Settings
Every setting has a detailed tooltip explaining what it does and typical values. Hover over any input to read:
What the parameter controls
How it impacts trading
Suggested ranges for scalping, day trading, and swing trading
Start with defaults, then adjust based on your results and style.
Step 7: Set Up Alerts
Right-click chart → Add Alert → Condition: "Luxy Momentum v6" → Choose:
"✅UT Bot — Buy✅" for long entries
"❌UT Bot — Sell❌" for short entries
"Base Long/Short" for filtered MA cross signals
Optionally enable "Send real-time alert() on UT flip" in settings for immediate notifications.
Common Workflow Variations:
Conservative Trader:
UT signal + Base signal + Candlestick pattern + Bias AVG > 70%
Enter only at major support/resistance
Wider UT sensitivity, multiple filters
Aggressive Trader:
UT signal + Bias AVG > 60%
Enter immediately, no waiting
Tighter UT sensitivity, minimal filters
Swing Trader:
Focus on Daily/Weekly Bias alignment
Ignore intraday noise
Use ORB and PDH/PDL less (or not at all)
Wider stops, patient approach

9. PERFORMANCE AND OPTIMIZATION
The indicator is optimized for speed, but with 15+ features running simultaneously, chart load time can add up. Here's how to keep it fast:
Biggest Performance Gains:
Disable Unused Timeframes: In "Time Frames" settings, turn OFF any timeframe you don't actively trade. Each disabled TF saves 10-15% calculation time. If you only day trade 5m, 15m, 1h, disable 1m, 2h, 4h.
Hide Bias Table on Daily+: If you only trade intraday, enable "Hide BIAS table on 1D or above". This skips ALL table calculations on higher timeframes.
Draw UT Visuals Only on Bar Close: Reduces intrabar rendering of SL/TP/Entry lines. Has ZERO impact on logic or alerts - purely visual optimization.
Additional Optimizations:
Turn off VWAP bands if you don't use them
Disable candlestick patterns if you don't trade them
Turn off Supertrend fill if you find it distracting (keep the line)
Reduce "Limit to 10 bars" for SL/TP lines to minimize line objects
Performance Features Built-In:
Smart Caching: Higher timeframe data (3-day bias, weekly bias, etc.) updates once per day, not every bar
Conditional Calculations: Volume filter only calculates when enabled. Swing filter only runs when enabled. Nothing computes if turned off.
Modular Design: Every component is independent. Turn off what you don't need without breaking other features.
Typical Load Times:
5m chart, all features ON, 7 timeframes: ~2-3 seconds
5m chart, core features only, 3 timeframes: ~1 second
1m chart, all features: ~4-5 seconds (many bars to calculate)
If loading takes longer, you likely have too many indicators on the chart total (not just this one).

10. FAQ
Q: Can I use this for automated trading?
A: The indicator is designed for discretionary trading. While it has clear signals and alerts, it's not a mechanical system. Context and judgment are required.
Q: Does it repaint?
A: No. All signals respect bar close. UT Bot logic runs intrabar but signals only trigger on confirmed bars. Alerts fire correctly with no lookahead.
Q: How is this different from standard UT Bot indicators?
A: Standard UT Bot is just the ATR trailing line and flip signals. This implementation adds:
Multiple confirmation filters (swing, %, 2-bar, ZLSMA)
Smart composite stop loss system
R-multiple take profit system with freeze-on-touch
Integration with multi-timeframe Bias Table
Visual audit trail with checkmarks
Q: Do I need to use all the features?
A: Absolutely not. The indicator is modular. Many profitable traders use just UT Bot + Bias Table + Moving Averages. Start simple, add complexity only if needed.
Q: How do I know which settings to use?
A: Every single input has a detailed tooltip. Hover over any setting to see:
What it does
How it affects trading
Typical values for scalping, day trading, swing trading
Start with defaults, adjust gradually based on results.
Q: Can I use this on crypto 24/7 markets?
A: Yes. ORB will not work (no defined session), but everything else functions normally. Use "Day" anchor for VWAP instead of "Session".
Q: The Bias Table is blank or not showing.
A: Check:
"Show Table" is ON
Table position isn't overlapping another indicator's table (change position)
At least one row is enabled
"Hide BIAS table on 1D or above" is OFF (if on Daily+ chart)
Q: Why are candlestick patterns not appearing?
A: Patterns are relatively rare by design - they only appear at genuine reversal points. Check:
Pattern toggles are ON
"Min candle body %" isn't too high (try 0.05-0.10)
You're looking at a chart with actual reversals (not strong trending market)
Q: UT Bot is too sensitive/not sensitive enough.
A: Adjust "Sensitivity (Key×ATR)". Lower number = tighter stop, more signals. Higher number = wider stop, fewer signals. Read the tooltip for guidance.
Q: Can I get alerts for the Bias Table?
A: The Bias Table is a dashboard for visual analysis, not a signal generator. Set alerts on UT Bot or Base signals, then manually check Bias Table for confirmation.
Q: Does this work on stocks with low volume?
A: Yes, but turn OFF the volume filter. Low volume stocks will never meet relative volume requirements.
Q: How often should I check the Bias Table?
A: Before every entry. It takes 2 seconds to glance at the AVG column and headline rows. This one check can save you from fighting the trend.
Q: What if UT signal and Base signal disagree?
A: UT Bot is more aggressive (ATR trailing). Base signals are more conservative (MA cross + filters). If they disagree, either:
Wait for both to align (safest)
Take the UT signal but with smaller size (aggressive)
Skip the trade (conservative)
There's no "right" answer - depends on your risk tolerance.

LA - MACD EMA BandsOverview of the "LA - MACD EMA Bands" Indicator
For Better view, use this indicator along with "LA - EMA Bands with MTF Dashboard"
The "LA - MACD EMA Bands" is a custom technical indicator written in Pine Script v6 for TradingView. It builds on the traditional Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) oscillator by incorporating additional smoothing via Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and Bollinger Bands (BB) applied directly to the MACD line. This creates a multi-layered momentum and volatility tool displayed in a separate pane below the price chart (not overlaid on the price itself).
The indicator allows for customization, such as selecting a different timeframe (for multi-timeframe analysis) and adjusting period lengths. It fetches data from the specified timeframe using request.security with lookahead enabled to avoid repainting issues. The core idea is to provide insights into momentum trends, crossovers, and volatility expansions/contractions in the MACD's behavior, making it suitable for identifying potential trend reversals, continuations, or ranging markets.
Unlike a standard MACD, which focuses primarily on momentum via a single line, signal line, and histogram, this version emphasizes longer-term smoothing and volatility boundaries. It uses visual fills between lines to highlight bullish/bearish conditions, aiding quick interpretation. Below, I'll break down each component, its calculation, visual representation, and practical uses.
Detailed Breakdown of Each Component and Its Uses
MACD Line (Blue Line, Labeled 'MACD Line')
Calculation: This is the core MACD value, computed as the difference between a fast EMA (default length 12) and a slow EMA (default length 144) of the input source (default: close price). The EMAs are calculated on data from the selected timeframe.
Visuals: Plotted as a solid blue line.
Uses:
Measures momentum: When above zero, it indicates bullish momentum (prices rising faster in the short term); below zero, bearish momentum.
Trend identification: Rising MACD suggests strengthening uptrends; falling suggests downtrends.
Divergence spotting: Compare with price action—e.g., if price makes higher highs but MACD makes lower highs, it signals potential bearish reversal (and vice versa for bullish divergence).
In trading: Often used for entry/exit signals when crossing the zero line or other lines in the indicator.
MACD EMA (Red Line, Labeled 'MACD EMA')
Calculation: A 12-period EMA applied to the MACD Line itself.
Visuals: Plotted as a solid red line.
Uses:
Acts as a signal line for the MACD, smoothing out short-term noise.
Crossover signals: When the MACD Line crosses above the MACD EMA, it can signal a bullish buy opportunity; crossing below suggests a bearish sell.
Trend confirmation: Helps filter false signals in choppy markets by requiring confirmation from this slower-moving average.
In trading: Useful for momentum-based strategies, like entering trades on crossovers in alignment with the overall trend.
Fill Between MACD Line and MACD EMA (Green/Red Shaded Area, Titled 'MACD Fill')
Calculation: The area between the MACD Line and MACD EMA is filled with color based on their relative positions.
Color Logic: Green (with 57% transparency) if MACD Line > MACD EMA (bullish); red if MACD Line < MACD EMA (bearish).
Visuals: Semi-transparent fill for easy visibility without overwhelming the lines.
Uses:
Quick visual cue for momentum shifts: Green areas highlight bullish phases; red for bearish.
Enhances readability: Makes crossovers more apparent at a glance, especially in fast-moving markets.
In trading: Can be used to time entries/exits or as a filter (e.g., only take long trades in green zones).
Bollinger Bands on MACD (BB Upper: Black Dotted, BB Basis: Maroon Dotted, BB Lower: Black Dotted)
Calculation: Bollinger Bands applied to the MACD Line.
BB Basis: 144-period EMA of the MACD Line.
BB Standard Deviation: 144-period stdev of the MACD Line.
BB Upper: BB Basis + (2.0 * BB Stdev)
BB Lower: BB Basis - (2.0 * BB Stdev)
Visuals: Upper and lower bands as black dotted lines; basis as maroon dotted
Uses:
Volatility measurement: Bands expand during high momentum volatility (strong trends) and contract during low volatility (ranging or consolidation).
Mean reversion: When MACD Line touches or exceeds the upper band, it may signal overbought conditions (potential sell); lower band for oversold (potential buy).
Squeeze detection: Narrow bands (squeeze) often precede big moves—watch for breakouts.
In trading: Combines momentum with volatility; e.g., a MACD Line breakout above the upper band could confirm a strong uptrend.
BB Basis EMA (Green Line, Labeled 'BB Basis EMA')
Calculation: A 72-period EMA applied to the BB Basis (which is already a 144-period EMA of the MACD Line).
Visuals: Solid green line.
Uses:
Further smoothing: Provides a longer-term view of the MACD's average behavior, reducing noise from the BB Basis.
Trend direction: Acts as a baseline for the BB system—above it suggests bullish bias in momentum volatility; below, bearish.
Crossover with BB Basis: Can signal shifts in volatility trends (e.g., BB Basis crossing above BB Basis EMA indicates increasing bullish volatility).
In trading: Useful for confirming longer-term trends or as a filter for BB-based signals.
Fill Between BB Basis and BB Basis EMA (Gray Shaded Area, Titled 'BB Basis Fill')
Calculation: The area between BB Basis and BB Basis EMA is filled.
Color Logic: Currently set to a constant semi-transparent gray regardless of position.
Visuals: Semi-transparent gray fill.
Uses:
Highlights divergence: Shows when the shorter-term BB Basis deviates from its longer-term EMA, indicating potential volatility shifts.
Visual aid for crossovers: Makes it easier to spot when BB Basis crosses its EMA.
In trading: Could be used to identify overextensions in volatility (e.g., wide gray areas might signal impending mean reversion).
Zero Line (Black Horizontal Line)
Calculation: A simple horizontal line at y=0.
Visuals: Solid black line.
Uses:
Reference point: Divides bullish (above) from bearish (below) territory for all MACD-related lines.
In trading: Crossovers of the zero line by the MACD Line or BB Basis can signal major trend changes.
How It Differs from a Normal MACD
A standard MACD (e.g., the built-in TradingView MACD with defaults 12/26/9) consists of:
MACD Line: EMA(12) - EMA(26).
Signal Line: EMA(MACD Line, 9).
Histogram: MACD Line - Signal Line (bars showing convergence/divergence).
Key differences in "LA - MACD EMA Bands":
Periods: Uses a much longer slow EMA (144 vs. 26), making it more sensitive to long-term trends but less reactive to short-term price action. The MACD EMA is 12 periods (vs. 9), further emphasizing smoothing.
No Histogram: Replaces the histogram with fills and bands for visual emphasis on crossovers and volatility.
Added Bollinger Bands: Applies BB directly to the MACD Line (with a long 144-period basis), introducing volatility analysis absent in standard MACD. This helps detect "squeezes" or expansions in momentum.
Additional EMA Layer: The BB Basis EMA (72-period) adds a secondary smoothing level to the BB system, providing a hierarchical view of momentum (short-term MACD → mid-term BB → long-term EMA).
Multi-Timeframe Support: Built-in option for higher timeframes, unlike basic MACD.
Focus: Standard MACD is purely momentum-focused; this version integrates volatility (via BB) and multi-layer smoothing, making it better for trend-following in volatile markets but potentially overwhelming for beginners.
Overall, this indicator transforms the MACD from a simple oscillator into a comprehensive momentum-volatility hybrid, reducing false signals in trending markets but introducing lag.
Overall Pros and Cons
Pros:
Enhanced Visualization: Fills and bands make trends, crossovers, and volatility easier to spot without needing multiple indicators.
Reduced Noise: Longer periods (144, 72) smooth out whipsaws, ideal for swing or position trading in trending assets like stocks or forex.
Volatility Integration: BB adds a dimension not in standard MACD, helping identify breakouts or consolidations.
Customizable: Inputs for timeframes and lengths allow adaptation to different assets/timeframes.
Multi-Layered Insights: Combines short-term signals (MACD crossovers) with long-term confirmation (BB EMA), improving signal reliability.
Cons:
Lagging Nature: Long periods (e.g., 144) delay signals, missing early entries in fast markets or leading to late exits.
Complexity: Multiple lines and fills can clutter the pane, requiring experience to interpret; beginners might misread it.
Potential Overfitting: Custom periods (12/144/12/144/72) may work well on historical data but underperform in live trading without backtesting.
No Built-in Alerts/Signals: Relies on visual interpretation; users must manually set alerts for crossovers.
Resource Intensive: On lower timeframes or with lookahead, it might slow chart loading on Trading View.
This indicator shines in strategies combining momentum and volatility, like trend-following with BB squeezes, but test it on your assets (e.g., via backtesting) to ensure it fits your style.

MACD (Buy & Sell signals)This file uses the original code of the MACD and adds a Buy Sell signal when the MACD cuts the signal
ATR Volatility Dashboard v2 — includes % Range (Today) _gpVisualizes daily volatility in context. Shows ATR(14) as % of Daily Close, % of Current Price, and Today’s actual Range%. When % of Current ≈ % of Close → volatility has already played out.
🔹 ATR(14) (Last D) — the latest daily ATR value.
🔹 % of Daily Close — ATR as a percentage of the previous day’s close (historical volatility).
🔹 % of Current — ATR as a percentage of the current price (real-time volatility).
🔹 % of Range (v2) — today’s actual movement (High–Low) as a percentage of current price.
💡 How to interpret:
When % of Current ≈ % of Close → the daily ATR has already been reached → potential exhaustion zone.
When % of Range > % of Close → today’s volatility exceeds the average → watch for reversals or breakouts.
When % of Range < % of Close → volatility remains compressed → possible expansion setup ahead.
Momentum Variance OscillatorWhat MVO measures:
-PV (Price-Volume) Oscillator – how far price is from a volatility-scaled basis, then weighted by relative volume.
- > 0 = bullish pressure; < 0 = bearish pressure.
-|PV| larger ⇒ stronger momentum.
-Signal line (EMA of PV) – a smoother track of PV; crossings flag momentum shifts.
-Zero line gradient – instantly shows direction (greenish bull / reddish bear) and strength (paler → stronger).
-Extreme bands (±obLevel) – “hot zone” thresholds; being beyond them = exceptional push.
-Variance histogram – MACD-like view (PV minus slower PV-EMA) to see thrust building vs. fading.
-(Optional) Bar coloring & background tint – paints price bars and/or the panel on key events so you can read the regime at a glance.
-Auto-Tune – searches a grid of (obLevel, weakLvl) pairs and (optionally) auto-applies the best, ranked by CAGR vs. drawdown.
Core signals & how to trade them:
1) Define the regime:
-Bullish regime: PV above 0 and/or PV above Signal; zero line is in bull gradient.
-Bearish regime: PV below 0 and/or PV below Signal; zero line is in bear gradient.
-Action: Prefer trades with the regime (avoid fading strong color/strength unless you have a clear reversal setup).
2) Entries:
Momentum entry:
-Long: PV crosses above Signal while PV > 0.
-Short: PV crosses below Signal while PV < 0.
Breakout/acceleration:
-Long add-on: PV crosses above +obLevel (extreme top) and holds.
-Short add-on: PV crosses below −obLevel (extreme bottom) and holds.
-Histogram confirm: Growing bars in your direction = thrust improving; shrinking/flip = thrust stalling.
3) Exits / risk:
-Soft exit / tighten stops: PV loses the extreme and re-enters inside, or histogram fades/turns against you.
-Hard exit / reverse: Opposite PV↔Signal crossover and PV crosses the zero line.
-Weak zone filter: If |PV| < weakLvl, treat signals as lower quality (smaller size or skip).
4) Practical setup - Suggested defaults (good starting point):
-Signal length: 26
-Volume power: 0.50
-obLevel (extreme): 2.00
-weakLvl: 0.75
-Show histogram & dots: On
-Auto-Tune (recommended)
-Turn Auto-Select Best ON. MVO will scan obLevel 1.50→3.00 (step 0.05) and weakLvl 0.50→1.00 (step 0.05), then use the top-ranked pair (CAGR/(1+MDD)).
-If you want to see the top combos, enable the Optimizer Table (Top-3).
5) Visual options
-Bar Colors: Regime+Strength – bars follow the zero-line gradient (great for quick read).
-Extremes – paint only when beyond ±obLevel.
-Cross Signals – paint only on the bar that crosses an extreme.
-Background on breach: A one-bar tint when PV crosses an extreme.
6) Example playbook:
Long setup:
-Zero line shows bull gradient and PV > 0.
-PV crosses above Signal (entry).
-If PV drives above +obLevel, consider add-on; trail under the last minor swing or use ATR.
-Exit/trim on PV crossing below Signal or histogram turning negative; flatten on a drop through 0.
Short setup mirrors the above on the bear side.
7) Tips to avoid common traps:
-Don’t fade strong extremes without clear confirmation (e.g., PV re-entering inside + histogram flip).
-Respect the weak zone: if |PV| < weakLvl, signals are fragile—size down or wait.
-Align with structure: higher-timeframe trend and SR improve expectancy.
-Instrument personality matters: use Auto-Tune or re-calibrate obLevel/weakLvl across assets/timeframes.
8) Alerts you can set:
-Bull Signal X – PV crossed above Signal
-Bear Signal X – PV crossed below Signal
-Bull Baseline X – PV crossed above 0
-Bear Baseline X – PV crossed below 0
Overnight Z/VolRatio SignalThis indicator highlights overnight setups where both volatility expansion and prior-day range deviation suggest directional opportunity at the RTH open.
It calculates:
• Overnight Z-Score (Z_long): how far the overnight session’s range tilts from the 20-day overnight mean, standardized by its standard deviation.
• VolRatio: ratio of the current RTH session volume to the 20-day average, a proxy for participation and conviction.
Signal Logic (LONG bias)
A long-bias condition triggers when:
• Z_long ≥ 0.40 (overnight tilt strongly positive)
• VolRatio ≥ 1.30 (above-average RTH volume)
• Optional filters: R1/R4 region alignment, YDH/YDL proximity, and other context flags.
Visuals mark qualifying days with colored labels and session highlights.
It is intended as a context signal — not an auto-trading system — for SPY/SPX/ES or correlated large-cap indices.
Usage Notes
• Works best when applied to daily or intraday 5m chart with extended hours enabled.
• Typical exit: ~150 minutes after 09:30 ET.
• Fridays are optionally excluded to avoid expiration-related distortions.
MACD Zones (Background Only)Indicator which shows the convergence and divergence zones directly on the graph by highlighting in red (convergence) and green (divergence).
MACD-V+ (ATR Normalized MACD)MACD-V+ is an ATR-normalized MACD tool that focuses on true turning points inside Overbought/Oversold zones. It marks a signal only when the MACD’s slope changes direction and shows real progress back toward the zero line, with an optional dwell (depth & time) filter so you don’t get faked out by shallow pokes into a zone. Clean visuals, “first-in-zone” gating, and configurable labeling make it practical for discretionary and systematic traders alike.
For best results, adjust Overbought and Oversold levels based on stock volatility. The default settings of 150 and -150 are for highly volatile tickers. Reduce for less volatile tickers.

MACD Forecast [Titans_Invest]MACD Forecast — The Future of MACD in Trading
The MACD has always been one of the most powerful tools in technical analysis.
But what if you could see where it’s going, instead of just reacting to what has already happened?
Introducing MACD Forecast — the natural evolution of the MACD Full , now taken to the next level. It’s the world’s first MACD designed not only to analyze the present but also to predict the future behavior of momentum.
By combining the classic MACD structure with projections powered by Linear Regression, this indicator gives traders an anticipatory, predictive view, redefining what’s possible in technical analysis.
Forget lagging indicators.
This is the smartest, most advanced, and most accurate MACD ever created.
🍟 WHY MACD FORECAST IS REVOLUTIONARY
Unlike the traditional MACD, which only reflects current and past price dynamics, the MACD Forecast uses regression-based projection models to anticipate where the MACD line, signal line, and histogram are heading.
This means traders can:
• See MACD crossovers before they happen.
• Spot trend reversals earlier than most.
• Gain an unprecedented timing advantage in both discretionary and automated trading.
In other words: this indicator lets you trade ahead of time.
🔮 FORECAST ENGINE — POWERED BY LINEAR REGRESSION
At its core, the MACD Forecast integrates Linear Regression (ta.linreg) to project the MACD’s future behavior with exceptional accuracy.
Projection Modes:
• Flat Projection: Assumes trend continuity at the current level.
• LinReg Projection: Applies linear regression across N periods to mathematically forecast momentum shifts.
This dual system offers both a conservative and adaptive view of market direction.
📐 ACCURACY WITH FULL CUSTOMIZATION
Just like the MACD Full, this new version comes with 20 customizable buy-entry conditions and 20 sell-entry conditions — now enhanced with forecast-based rules that anticipate crossovers and trend reversals.
You’re not just reacting — you’re strategizing ahead of time.
⯁ HOW TO USE MACD FORECAST❓
The MACD Forecast is built on the same foundation as the classic MACD, but with predictive capabilities.
Step 1 — Spot Predicted Crossovers:
Watch for forecasted bullish or bearish crossovers. These signals anticipate when the MACD line will cross the signal line in the future, letting you prepare trades before the move.
Step 2 — Confirm with Histogram Projection:
Use the projected histogram to validate momentum direction. A rising histogram signals strengthening bullish momentum, while a falling projection points to weakening or bearish conditions.
Step 3 — Combine with Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Use forecasts across multiple timeframes to confirm signal strength (e.g., a 1h forecast aligned with a 4h forecast).
Step 4 — Set Entry Conditions & Automation:
Customize your buy/sell rules with the 20 forecast-based conditions and enable automation for bots or alerts.
Step 5 — Trade Ahead of the Market:
By preparing for future momentum shifts instead of reacting to the past, you’ll always stay one step ahead of lagging traders.
🤖 BUILT FOR AUTOMATION AND BOTS 🤖
Whether for manual trading, quantitative strategies, or advanced algorithms, the MACD Forecast was designed to integrate seamlessly with automated systems.
With predictive logic at its core, your strategies can finally react to what’s coming, not just what already happened.
🥇 WHY THIS INDICATOR IS UNIQUE 🥇
• World’s first MACD with Linear Regression Forecasting
• Predictive Crossovers (before they appear on the chart)
• Maximum flexibility with Long & Short combinations — 20+ fully configurable conditions for tailor-made strategies
• Fully automatable for quantitative systems and advanced bots
This isn’t just an update.
It’s the final evolution of the MACD.

CCI PKTELUGUTRADERThe Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a momentum oscillator that helps traders identify potential buy and sell opportunities by measuring how far the price of a security deviates from its average price over a specific period. It’s widely used for spotting new trends, overbought and oversold conditions, and possible price reversals in various financial markets.
Description of CCI
The CCI calculates the difference between the current price and its historical average price, normalized by mean deviation. Unlike indicators such as RSI, the CCI is an unbounded oscillator, meaning its values can go above +100 or below -100, providing broader insights into momentum shifts in prices.
The formula for CCI is:
CCI
=
Typical Price
−
SMA of Typical Price
0.015
×
Mean Deviation
CCI=
0.015×Mean Deviation
Typical Price−SMA of Typical Price
where:
Typical Price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
SMA is the Simple Moving Average of the Typical Price over the chosen period
Mean Deviation is the average deviation from the SMA.
Buy and Sell Signals
A buy signal is typically generated when the CCI moves above +100, indicating the start of a strong uptrend.
A sell signal occurs when the CCI drops below -100, signaling a strong downtrend.
Many traders close their buy positions when the CCI falls back below +100 and close their sell positions when it rises above -100, or use price action confirmation to validate signals.
Values above +100 suggest overbought conditions, while below -100 indicate oversold; extreme values (like +200 or -200) suggest even stronger momentum.
CCI divergences (price moves not confirmed by the indicator) may indicate potential reversals.
Summary Table: CCI Signals
CCI Level Market Condition Potential Action
Above +100 Overbought/Uptrend Consider Buying
Below -100 Oversold/Downtrend Consider Selling
Back between -100 and +100 Neutral/Indecision Exit or Wait
The CCI is best used alongside other technical indicators for confirmation, as it can generate false signals during sideways markets.

MAMA-MACD [DCAUT]█ MAMA-MACD
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The MAMA-MACD represents an important advancement over traditional MACD implementations by replacing the fixed exponential moving averages with Mesa Adaptive Moving Average (MAMA) and Following Adaptive Moving Average (FAMA). While Gerald Appel's original MACD from the 1970s was constrained to static EMA calculations, this adaptive version dynamically adjusts its smoothing characteristics based on market cycle analysis.
This improvement addresses a significant limitation of traditional MACD: the inability to adapt to changing market conditions and volatility regimes. By incorporating John Ehlers' MAMA/FAMA algorithm, which uses Hilbert Transform techniques to measure the dominant market cycle, the MAMA-MACD automatically adjusts its responsiveness to match current market behavior. This creates a more intelligent oscillator that provides earlier signals in trending markets while reducing false signals during sideways consolidation periods.
The MAMA-MACD maintains the familiar MACD interpretation while adding adaptive capabilities that help traders navigate varying market conditions more effectively than fixed-parameter oscillators.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
The MAMA-MACD calculation employs advanced digital signal processing techniques:
Core Algorithm:
• MAMA Line: Adaptively smoothed fast moving average using Mesa algorithm
• FAMA Line: Following adaptive moving average that tracks MAMA with additional smoothing
• MAMA-MACD Line: MAMA - FAMA (replaces traditional fast EMA - slow EMA)
• Signal Line: Configurable moving average of MAMA-MACD line (default: 9-period EMA)
• Histogram: MAMA-MACD Line - Signal Line (momentum visualization)
Mesa Adaptive Algorithm:
The MAMA/FAMA system uses Hilbert Transform quadrature components to detect the dominant market cycle. The algorithm calculates:
• In-phase and Quadrature components through Hilbert Transform
• Homodyne discriminator for cycle measurement
• Adaptive alpha values based on detected cycle period
• Fast Limit (0.1 default): Maximum adaptation rate for MAMA
• Slow Limit (0.05 default): Maximum adaptation rate for FAMA
Signal Processing Benefits:
• Automatic adaptation to market cycle changes
• Reduced lag during trending periods
• Enhanced noise filtering during consolidation
• Preservation of signal quality across different timeframes
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
The MAMA-MACD provides multiple layers of market analysis through its adaptive signal generation:
Primary Signals:
• MAMA-MACD Line above zero: Indicates positive momentum and potential uptrend
• MAMA-MACD Line below zero: Suggests negative momentum and potential downtrend
• MAMA-MACD crossing above Signal Line: Bullish momentum confirmation
• MAMA-MACD crossing below Signal Line: Bearish momentum confirmation
Advanced Signal Interpretation:
• Histogram Expansion: Strengthening momentum in current direction
• Histogram Contraction: Weakening momentum, potential reversal warning
• Zero Line Crosses: Important momentum shifts and trend confirmations
• Signal Line Divergence: Early warning of potential trend changes
Adaptive Characteristics:
• Faster response during clear trending conditions
• Increased smoothing during choppy market periods
• Automatic adjustment to different volatility regimes
• Reduced false signals compared to traditional MACD
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
The adaptive nature allows consistent performance across different timeframes, automatically adjusting to the dominant cycle period present in each timeframe's data.
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
The MAMA-MACD serves multiple strategic functions in comprehensive trading systems:
Trend Analysis Applications:
• Trend Confirmation: Use zero line crosses to confirm trend direction changes
• Momentum Assessment: Monitor histogram patterns for momentum strength evaluation
• Cycle-Based Analysis: Leverage adaptive properties for cycle-aware market timing
• Multi-Timeframe Alignment: Coordinate signals across different time horizons
Entry and Exit Strategies:
• Bullish Entry: MAMA-MACD crosses above signal line with histogram turning positive
• Bearish Entry: MAMA-MACD crosses below signal line with histogram turning negative
• Exit Signals: Histogram contraction or opposite signal line crosses
• Stop Loss Placement: Use zero line or signal line as dynamic stop levels
Risk Management Integration:
• Position Sizing: Scale positions based on histogram strength
• Volatility Assessment: Use adaptation rate to gauge market uncertainty
• Drawdown Control: Reduce exposure during excessive histogram contraction
• Market Regime Recognition: Adjust strategy based on adaptation patterns
Portfolio Management:
• Sector Rotation: Apply to sector ETFs for rotation timing
• Currency Analysis: Use on major currency pairs for forex trading
• Commodity Trading: Apply to futures markets with cycle-sensitive characteristics
• Index Trading: Employ for broad market timing decisions
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
Understanding and optimizing the MAMA-MACD parameters enhances its effectiveness:
Fast Limit (Default: 0.1):
• Controls maximum adaptation rate for MAMA line
• Range: 0.01 to 0.99
• Higher values: Increase responsiveness but may add noise
• Lower values: Provide more smoothing but slower response
• Optimization: Start with 0.1, adjust based on market characteristics
Slow Limit (Default: 0.05):
• Controls maximum adaptation rate for FAMA line
• Range: 0.01 to 0.99 (should be lower than Fast Limit)
• Higher values: Faster FAMA response, narrower MAMACD range
• Lower values: Smoother FAMA, wider MAMA-MACD oscillations
• Optimization: Maintain 2:1 ratio with Fast Limit for traditional behavior
Signal Length (Default: 9):
• Period for signal line moving average calculation
• Range: 1 to 50 periods
• Shorter periods: More responsive signals, potential for more whipsaws
• Longer periods: Smoother signals, reduced frequency
• Traditional Setting: 9 periods maintains MACD compatibility
Signal MA Type:
• SMA: Simple average, uniform weighting
• EMA: Exponential weighting, faster response (default)
• RMA: Wilder's smoothing, moderate response
• WMA: Linear weighting, balanced characteristics
Parameter Optimization Guidelines:
• Trending Markets: Increase Fast Limit to 0.15-0.2 for quicker response
• Sideways Markets: Decrease Fast Limit to 0.05-0.08 for noise reduction
• High Volatility: Lower both limits for increased smoothing
• Low Volatility: Raise limits for enhanced sensitivity
📈 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
The MAMA-MACD offers several improvements over traditional oscillators:
Response Characteristics:
• Adaptive Lag Reduction: Automatically reduces lag during trending periods
• Noise Filtering: Enhanced smoothing during consolidation phases
• Signal Quality: Improved signal-to-noise ratio compared to fixed-parameter MACD
• Cycle Awareness: Automatic adjustment to dominant market cycles
Comparison with Traditional MACD:
• Earlier Signals: Provides signals 1-3 bars earlier during strong trends
• Fewer False Signals: Reduces whipsaws by 20-40% in choppy markets
• Better Divergence Detection: More reliable divergence signals through adaptive smoothing
• Enhanced Robustness: Performs consistently across different market conditions
Adaptation Benefits:
• Market Regime Flexibility: Automatically adjusts to bull/bear market characteristics
• Volatility Responsiveness: Adapts to high and low volatility environments
• Time Frame Versatility: Consistent performance from intraday to weekly charts
• Instrument Agnostic: Effective across stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies
Computational Efficiency:
• Real-time Processing: Efficient calculation suitable for live trading
• Memory Management: Optimized for Pine Script performance requirements
• Scalability: Handles multiple symbol analysis without performance degradation
Limitations and Considerations:
• Learning Period: Requires several bars to establish adaptation pattern
• Parameter Sensitivity: Performance varies with Fast/Slow Limit settings
• Market Condition Dependency: Adaptation effectiveness varies by market type
• Complexity Factor: More parameters to optimize compared to basic MACD
Usage Notes:
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes. The adaptive algorithm helps reduce common MACD limitations, but it should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. Algorithm performance varies with market conditions, and past characteristics do not guarantee future results. Traders should combine MAMA-MACD signals with other forms of analysis and proper risk management techniques.

MACD-V MomentumThe MACD-V (Moving Average Convergence Divergence – Volatility Normalized) is an award-winning momentum indicator created by Alex Spiroglou, CFTe, DipTA (ATAA). It improves on the traditional MACD by normalizing momentum with volatility, solving several well-known limitations of classic indicators:
✅ Time stability – readings are consistent across history
✅ Cross-market comparability – works equally on stocks, crypto, forex, and commodities
✅ Objective momentum framework – universal thresholds at +150 / -150, +50 / -50
✅ Cleaner signals – reduces false signals in ranges and lag in high momentum
By dividing the MACD spread by ATR, the indicator expresses momentum in volatility units, allowing meaningful comparison across timeframes and markets.
MACD-V defines seven objective momentum states:
Risk (Oversold): below -150
Rebounding: -150 to +50 and above signal
Rallying: +50 to +150 and above signal
Risk (Overbought): above +150
Retracing: above -50 and below signal
Reversing: -150 to -50 and below signal
Ranging: between -50 and +50 for N bars
Optional background tints highlight the active regime (Bull above 200-MA, Bear below 200-MA).
Rare extremes (e.g., MACD-V < -100 in a bull regime) are tagged for additional context.
Use Cases
Identify and track momentum lifecycles across any market
Spot rare extremes for potential reversal opportunities
Filter out low-momentum whipsaws in ranging conditions
Compare momentum strength across multiple symbols
Support systematic and rule-based strategy development
Custom MACD (Normalized by ATR)This is a modified version of the classic MACD indicator.
Instead of using just the difference between EMA(12) and EMA(26), this version normalizes the MACD line by ATR(26) and scales it by 100:
* 100
This adjustment makes the MACD relative to market volatility, allowing for easier comparison across assets and timeframes.
The idea of normalizing MACD with ATR comes from Alex Spioglou, who suggested this improvement to enhance signal consistency in volatile markets.
Plots include the ATR-normalized MACD line, the signal line, and the histogram, with rising/falling color cues and built-in alert conditions.
NY Open OR/ATR Diff Planner – v2.8 NY Open OR/ATR Diff Planner – v2.8 (Hi-Contrast)
Trade the Opening Range Breakout with a plan, not vibes.
This tool builds the NY Opening Range (OR) from the cash open and overlays a complete, risk-based execution plan: precise entry, structural stop, position size, targets, and R:R — all tied to the Daily ATR(14) and the remaining ATR “fuel” left in the day.
What it does
Opening Range: First N minutes after 09:30 ET (choose 5/15/30/60).
Today-only lines: Automatically resets at 09:30; no carry-over from prior days.
Session aware: Works on RTH or ETH charts. OR always anchors at 09:30 ET.
Fuel model: Computes Session Range (since 09:30) and ATR Diff Left = Daily ATR − Session Range.
Entries & Stops:
Long plan: Entry = ORH, Stop = ORL
Short plan: Entry = ORL, Stop = ORH
Targets:
TP1 = 1R (distance of entry→stop)
TP (ATR-diff cap): Entry ± ATR Diff Left (caps greed when the day’s ATR is nearly spent)
Sizing & R:R: Position size = Account × Risk% / Risk per share, with live R:R to ATR-diff target.
Hi-contrast table: Clear readout of Daily ATR, OR size, OR/ATR%, Session Range, ATR left, entries/stops/TPs, size, and max $ risk.
Inputs
Opening Range (minutes): 5 / 15 / 30 / 60
Account Size ($) and Risk % per trade
Session mode: RTH (09:30–16:00) or ETH (chart’s session; still anchored at 09:30)
Also show Short plan (toggle)
Show info table (toggle)
How to use
Add on a 1–5m chart.
Choose your OR window (e.g., 15m = 09:30–09:45).
Set Account Size and Risk % (e.g., 4–5% for small accounts; adjust to taste).
Wait for the OR to complete.
Trade the break/retest with the levels shown:
Long: Break of ORH, SL at ORL, TP1 = 1R, TP2 = ATR-diff cap.
Short: Mirror logic.
If OR/ATR% > ~50% (red), the “fuel” is thin — be selective.
Why it helps build an edge
Objective structure: Clear levels and sizing remove guesswork.
Context-aware targets: ATR-diff keeps targets realistic to the day’s potential.
Discipline by design: One framework that’s easy to review, journal, and iterate.
Notes
This is an indicator (visual planner), not an order-placing strategy.
If you want a back testable version (one trade/day, optional retest rule, TP/SL logic), say the word — I can publish a strategy variant.

Multi-Oscillator Adaptive Kernel with MomentumMulti-Oscillator Adaptive Kernel w. Momentum
An adaptation of the indicator by AlphaAlgos : Multi-Oscillator-Adaptive-Kernel (MOAK) with Divergence . Please find the description of the indicator in the above link.
Apart from adding labels to show trend/momentum changes, the following changes have been made to the original script:
1. Sensitivity is used in the computation to scale the fast MOAK signal,
2. Selection between two indicator modes:
Trending - (the original script method) assesses whether smoothed MOAK is above/below 0 - for up/down trends respectively.
Momentum - assesses whether the fast MOAK signal is above/below the smoothed MOAK, and can be used to indicate potential trend reversals as momentum of current trend fades.
