Ichimoku OscillatorFans of the Ichimoku cloud indicator may enjoy this lower study version.
It's all the exact same representation but the cloud is converted to an oscillation in histogram or classic cloud fill formats.
All of the original lines, except Kumo cloud lines, are provided but adjusted to be positionally accurate to the oscillation values.
The oscillation value is calculated simply by absolute subtraction of span a and b lines and as such become an additional width detection mechanism in what I consider to be a slightly cleaner display.
Since the entire cloud can be removed from the main chart, it's necessary to understand price location relative to the values which is calculated and displayed as the 'Price' plot. It is positionally accurate to the oscillation and cross signals can be observed.
My hope is that this serves as a foundation for others to create interesting Ichimoku lower study indicators, and to provide relief to traders looking for cleaner main charts.
I've done my best to ensure accuracy but if any issues are found please let me know.
Feedback and suggestions are welcome, enjoy.

Simple Neural Network Transformed RSI [QuantraSystems]Simple Neural Network Transformed RSI
Introduction
The Simple Neural Network Transformed RSI (ɴɴᴛ ʀsɪ) stands out as a formidable tool for traders who specialize in lower timeframe trading.
It is an innovative enhancement of the traditional RSI readings with simple neural network smoothing techniques.
This unique blend results in fairly accurate signals, tailored for swift market movements. The ɴɴᴛ ʀsɪ is particularly resistant to the usual market noise found in lower timeframes, ensuring a clearer view of short-term trends.
Furthermore, its diverse range of visualization options adds versatility, making it a valuable tool for traders seeking to capitalize on short-duration market dynamics.
Legend
In the Image you can see the BTCUSD 1D Chart with the ɴɴᴛ ʀsɪ in Trend Following Mode to display the current trend. This is visualized with the barcoloring.
Its Overbought and Oversold zones start at 50% and end at 100% of the selected Standard Deviation (default σ = 2), which can indicate extremely rare situations which can lead to either a softening momentum in the trend or even a mean reversion situation.
Here you can also see the original Indicator line and the Heikin Ashi transformed Indicator bars - more on that now.
Notes
Quantra Standard Value Contents:
To draw out all the information from the indicator calculation we have added a Heikin-Ashi (HA) Candle Visualization.
This HA transformation smoothens out the indicator values and gives a more informative look into Momentum and Trend of the Indicator itself.
This allows early entries and exits by observing the HA transformed Indicator values.
To diversify, different visualization options are available, either a classic line, HA transformed or Hybrid, which contains both of the previous.
To make Quantra's Indicators as useful and versatile as possible we have created options
to change the barcoloring and thus the derived signal from the indicator based on different modes.
Option to choose different Modes:
Trend Following (Indicator above mid line counts as uptrend, below is downtrend)
Extremities (Everything going beyond the Deviation Bands in a Mean Reversion manner is highlighted)
Candles (Color of HA candles as barcolor)
Reversion (HA ONLY) (Reversion Signals via the triangles if HA candles change state outside of the Deviation Bands)
- Reversion Signals are indicated by the triangles in the Heikin-Ashi or Hybrid visualization when the HA Candles revert
from downwards to upwards or the other way around OUTSIDE of the SD Bands.
Depending on the Indicator they signal OB/OS areas and can either work as high probability entries and exits for Mean Reversion trades or
indicate Momentum slow downs and potential ranges.
Please use another indicator to confirm this.
Case Study
To effectively utilize the NNT-RSI, traders should know their style and familiarize themselves with the available options.
As stated above, you have multiple modes available that you can combine as you need and see fit.
In the given example mostly only the mode was used in an isolated fashion.
Trend Following:
Purely relied on State Change - Midline crossover
Could be combined with Momentum or Reversion analysis for better entries/exits.
Extremities:
Ideal entry/exit is in the accordingly colored OS/OB Area, the Reversion signaled the latest possible entry/exit.
HA Candles:
Specifically applicable for strong trends. Powerful and fast tool.
Can whip if used as sole condition.
Reversions:
Shows the single entry and exit bars which have a positive expected value outcome.
Can also be used as confirmation or as last signal.
Please note that we always advise to find more confluence by additional indicators.
Traders are encouraged to test and determine the most suitable settings for their specific trading strategies and timeframes.
In the showcased trades the default settings were used.
Methodology
The Simple Neural Network Transformed RSI uses a simple neural network logic to process RSI values, smoothing them for more accurate trend analysis.
This is achieved through a linear combination of RSI values over a specified input length, weighted evenly to produce a neural network output.
// Simple neural network logic (linear combination with weighted aggregation)
var float inputs = array.new_float(nnLength, na)
for i = 0 to nnLength - 1
array.set(inputs, i, rsi1 )
nnOutput = 0.0
for i = 0 to nnLength - 1
nnOutput := nnOutput + array.get(inputs, i) * (1 / nnLength)
nnOutput
This output is then compared against a standard or dynamic mean line to generate trend following signals.
Mean = ta.sma(nnOutput, sdLook)
cross = useMean? 50 : Mean
The indicator also incorporates Heikin Ashi candlestick calculations to provide additional insights into market dynamics, such as trend strength and potential reversals.
// Calculate Heikin Ashi representation
ha = ha(
na(nnOutput ) ? nnOutput : nnOutput ,
math.max(nnOutput, nnOutput ),
math.min(nnOutput, nnOutput ),
nnOutput)
Standard deviation bands are used to create dynamic overbought and oversold zones, further enhancing the tool's analytical capabilities.
// Calculate Dynamic OB/OS Zones
stdv_bands(_src, _length, _mult) =>
float basis = ta.sma(_src, _length)
float dev = _mult * ta.stdev(_src, _length)
= stdv_bands(nnOutput, sdLook,sdMult/2)
= stdv_bands(nnOutput, sdLook, sdMult)
The Standard Deviation bands take defined parameters from the user, in this case sigma of ideally between 2 to 3,
to help the indicator detect extremely improbable conditions and thus take an inversely probable signal from it to forward to the user.
The parameter settings and also the visualizations allow for ample customizations by the trader.

MCG - Meme Coin Gains [Logue]Meme Coin Gains. Investor preference for meme coin trading may signal irrational exuberance in the crypto market. If a large spike in meme coin gains is observed, a top may be near. Therefore, the gains of the most popular meme coins (DOGE, SHIB, SATS, ORDI, BONK, PEPE, and FLOKI) were averaged together in this indicator to help indicate potential mania phases, which may signal nearing of a top. Two simple moving averages of the meme coin gains are used to smooth the data and help visualize changes in trend. In back testing, I found a 10-day "fast" sma and a 20-day "slow" sma of the meme coin gains works well to signal tops and bottoms when extreme values of this indicator are reached.
Meme coins were not traded heavily prior to 2020. Therefore, there is only one cycle to test at the time of initial publication. Also, the meme coin space moves fast, so more meme coins may need to be added later. Also, once a meme coin has finished its mania phase where everyone and their mother has heard of it, it doesn't seem to run again (at least with the data up until time of publication). Therefore, the value of this indicator may not be great unless it is updated frequently.
The two moving averages are plotted. For the indicator, top and bottom "slow" sma trigger lines are plotted. The sma trigger line and the periods (daily) of the moving averages can be modified to your own preferences. The "slow" sma going above or below the trigger lines will print a different background color. Plot on a linear scale if you want to view this as similar to an RSI-type indicator. Plot on a log scale if you want to view as similar to a stochastic RSI.
Use this indicator at your own risk. I make no claims as to its accuracy in forecasting future trend changes of Bitcoin or the crypto market.
BDC - Bitcoin (BTC) Dominance Change [Logue]Bitcoin Dominance Change. Interesting things tend to happen when the Bitcoin dominance increases or decreases rapidly. Perhaps because there is overexuberance in the market in either BTC or the alts. In back testing, I found a rapid 13-day change in dominance indicates interesting switches in the BTC trends. Prior to 2019, the indicator doesn't work as well to signal trend shifts (i.e., local tops and bottoms) likely based on very few coins making up the crypto market.
The BTC dominance change is calculated as a percentage change of the daily dominance. You are able to change the upper bound, lower bound, and the period (daily) of the indicator to your own preferences. The indicator going above the upper bound or below the lower bound will trigger a different background color.
Use this indicator at your own risk. I make no claims as to its accuracy in forecasting future trend changes of Bitcoin.
Advanced Volatility Oscillator with SignalsTitle: Advanced Volatility Oscillator with Signals (AVO-S)
In-Depth Description:
Introduction:
The Advanced Volatility Oscillator with Signals (AVO-S) is designed to offer traders a nuanced understanding of market volatility, combining traditional concepts with innovative visual aids and signal interpretation. This indicator is tailored for diverse financial markets, helping to identify potential trend reversals and momentum shifts.
Calculation and Methodology:
Spike Calculation: The core of AVO-S is the 'spike', calculated as the difference between the closing and opening prices (spike = close - open). This measure provides a straightforward gauge of intra-period volatility.
Standard Deviation: The indicator employs standard deviation to assess the variability of the 'spike', offering a dynamic threshold for understanding market extremities (stdDev = stdev(spike, length)).
Colored Columns: These columns visually represent the 'spike'. Their color changes based on the spike’s value relative to the zero line and the standard deviation threshold, providing an immediate visual cue of market state.
Blue Columns: Indicate moderate positive movement when the spike is above zero but below the standard deviation.
Green and Red Columns: Suggest stronger bullish (above standard deviation) and bearish (below negative standard deviation) movements, respectively.
Bullish and Bearish Signals:
The indicator generates signals based on the relationship between the 'spike' and its standard deviation.
Bullish Signals: Shown as upward triangles, these are formed when the 'spike' crosses above the standard deviation, indicating potential upward momentum.
Bearish Signals: Represented by downward triangles, these signals are generated when the 'spike' falls below the negative standard deviation, hinting at potential downward trends.
Usage and Application:
Traders can use the colored columns to quickly assess market sentiment and volatility.
The bullish and bearish signals serve as potential indicators for market entry or exit points, or for further analysis in conjunction with other technical tools.
Inspiration and Credits:
Inspired by Veryfid's original Volatility Oscillator, the AVO-S refines and builds upon these ideas to provide a comprehensive and user-friendly tool for market analysis. This indicator is a testament to the continuous evolution of technical analysis tools in the trading community.
Donchian Channels %I enjoy Donchian Channels for identifying trends. However, I hate having them on my chart. They are next to impossible to interpret at a glance. This script converts DCs to a % making a useful oscillator. The horizontal lines on the chart correspond to the Fib retracements below 50%. There are many ways to trade using this script and it works on any time frame. Moving average crosses are worth your attention, particularly, the 34 period MA (purple line). Enjoy and happy trading.
Fusion: Aroon trend matching with dual thresholds 2Same as previous one, just making the code publicly available.
You set an upper and lower threshold and when both are met a direction is determined.
I use this primarily as a confirmation indicator of a trend.
The addition to the normal Aroon is simply the threshold settings and the visuals. There is even an option to see the length you are using which I find useful when the length is long, say 40+ so you don't forget that it's considerably longer than how it's normally used.
Additionally it defaults to the normal colors we are familar with for up and down (long/short) but you can choose Aroon colors if you wish with just a checkbox.
The length is certainly not optimized so set to whatever suits your needs. The Aroon default is 14, I used 6 for one particular case so that's what it ended up being for this indicator.
I default to a dark theme so if you are using a light theme you may need to change some brightness settings.
Finally, if you find value please do make a comment, give a thumbs up etc.
Enjoy and good luck!
Amazing Oscillator (AO) [Algoalpha]Description:
Introducing the Amazing Oscillator indicator by Algoalpha, a versatile tool designed to help traders identify potential trend shifts and market turning points. This indicator combines the power of the Awesome Oscillator (AO) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to create a new indicator that provides valuable insights into market momentum and potential trade opportunities.
Key Features:
Customizable Parameters: The indicator allows you to customize the period of the RSI calculations to fine-tune the indicator's responsiveness.
Visual Clarity: The indicator uses user-defined colors to visually represent upward and downward movements. You can select your preferred colors for both bullish and bearish signals, making it easy to spot potential trade setups.
AO and RSI Integration: The script combines the AO and RSI indicators to provide a comprehensive view of market conditions. The RSI is applied to the AO, which results in a standardized as well as a less noisy version of the Awesome Oscillator. This makes the indicator capable of pointing out overbought or oversold conditions as well as giving fewer false signals
Signal Plots: The indicator plots key levels on the chart, including the RSI threshold(Shifted down by 50) at 30 and -30. These levels are often used by traders to identify potential trend reversal points.
Signal Alerts: For added convenience, the indicator includes "x" markers to signal potential buy (green "x") and sell (red "x") opportunities based on RSI crossovers with the -30 and 30 levels. These alerts can help traders quickly identify potential entry and exit points.
Trend Flow Profile [AlgoAlpha]Description:
The "Trend Flow Profile" indicator is a powerful tool designed to analyze and interpret the underlying trends and reversals in a financial market. It combines the concepts of Order Flow and Rate of Change (ROC) to provide valuable insights into market dynamics, momentum, and potential trade opportunities. By integrating these two components, the indicator offers a comprehensive view of market sentiment and price movements, facilitating informed trading decisions.
Rationale:
The combination of Order Flow and ROC in the "Trend Flow Profile" indicator stems from the recognition that both factors play critical roles in understanding market behavior. Order Flow represents the net buying or selling pressure in the market, while ROC measures the rate at which prices change. By merging these elements, the indicator captures the interplay between market participants' actions and the momentum of price movements, enabling traders to identify trends, spot reversals, and gauge the strength of price acceleration or deceleration.
Calculation:
The Order Flow component is computed by summing the volume when prices move up and subtracting the volume when prices move down. This cumulative measure reflects the overall order imbalance in the market, providing insights into the dominant buying or selling pressure.
The ROC component calculates the percentage change in price over a given period. It compares the current price to a previous price and expresses the change as a percentage. This measurement indicates the velocity and direction of price movement, allowing traders to assess the market's momentum.
How to Use It?
The "Trend Flow Profile" indicator offers valuable information to traders for making informed trading decisions. It enables the identification of underlying trends and potential reversals, providing a comprehensive view of market sentiment and momentum. Here are some key ways to utilize the indicator:
Spotting Trends: The indicator helps identify the prevailing market trend, whether bullish or bearish. A consistent positive (green) histogram indicates a strong uptrend, while a consistent negative (red) histogram suggests a robust downtrend.
Reversal Signals: Reversal patterns can be identified when the histogram changes color, transitioning from positive to negative (or vice versa). These reversals can signify potential turning points in the market, highlighting opportunities for counter-trend trades.
Momentum Assessment: By observing the width and intensity of the histogram, traders can assess the acceleration or deceleration of price momentum. A wider histogram suggests strong momentum, while a narrower histogram indicates a potential slowdown.
Utility:
The "Trend Flow Profile" indicator serves as a valuable tool for traders, providing several benefits. Traders can easily identify the prevailing market trend, enabling them to align their trading strategies with the dominant direction of the market. The indicator also helps spot potential reversals, allowing traders to anticipate market turning points and capture counter-trend opportunities. Additionally, the green and red histogram colors provide visual cues to determine the optimal duration of a long or short position. Following the green histogram signals when in a long position and the red histogram signals when in a short position can assist traders in managing their trades effectively. Moreover, the width and intensity of the histogram offer insights into the acceleration or deceleration of momentum. Traders can gauge the strength of price movements and adjust their trading strategies accordingly. By leveraging the "Trend Flow Profile" indicator, traders gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics, which enhances their decision-making and improves their overall trading outcomes.
Bollinger Bands Percentile + Stdev Channels (BBPct) [AlgoAlpha]Description:
The "Bollinger Bands Percentile (BBPct) + STD Channels" mean reversion indicator, developed by AlgoApha, is a technical analysis tool designed to analyze price positions using Bollinger Bands and Standard Deviation Channels (STDC). The combination of these two indicators reinforces a stronger reversal signal. BBPct calculates the percentile rank of the price's standard deviation relative to a specified lookback period. Standard deviation channels operate by utilizing a moving average as the central line, with upper and lower lines equidistant from the average based on the market's volatility, helping to identify potential price boundaries and deviations.
How it Works:
The BBPct indicator utilizes Bollinger Bands, which consist of a moving average (basis) and upper and lower bands based on a specified standard deviation multiplier. By default, it uses a 20-period moving average and a standard deviation multiplier of 2. The upper band is calculated by adding the basis to the standard deviation multiplied by the multiplier, while the lower band is calculated by subtracting the same value. The BBPct indicator calculates the position of the current price between the lower and upper Bollinger Bands as a percentile value. It determines this position by comparing the price's distance from the lower band to the overall range between the upper and lower bands. A value of 0 indicates that the price is at the lower band, while a value of 100 indicates that the price is at the upper band. The indicator also includes an optional Bollinger Band standard deviation percentage (%Stdev) histogram, representing the deviation of the current price from the moving average as a percentage of the price itself.
Standard deviation channels, also known as volatility channels, aid in identifying potential buying and selling opportunities while minimizing unfavorable trades. These channels are constructed by two lines that run parallel to a moving average. The separation between these lines is determined by the market's volatility, represented by standard deviation. By designating upper and lower channel lines, the channels demarcate the borders between typical and atypical price movements. Consequently, when the market's price falls below the lower channel line, it suggests undervaluation, whereas prices surpassing the upper channel line indicate overvaluation.
Signals
The chart displays potential reversal points through the use of red and green arrows. A red arrow indicates a potential bearish retracement, signaling a possible downward movement, while a green arrow represents a potential pullback to the positive, suggesting a potential upward movement. These signals are generated only when both the BBPct (Bollinger Bands Percentage) and the STDC (Standard Deviation Channel) indicators align with bullish or bearish conditions. Consequently, traders might consider opening long positions when the green arrow appears and short positions when the red arrow is plotted.
Usage:
This indicator can be utilized by traders and investors to effectively identify pullbacks, reversals, and mean regression, thereby enhancing their trading opportunities. Notably, extreme values of the BBPct, such as below -5 or above 105, indicate oversold or overbought conditions, respectively. Moreover, the presence of extreme STDC zones occurs when prices fall below the lower channel line or cross above the upper channel line. Traders can leverage this information as a mean reversion tool by identifying instances of peak overbought and oversold values. These distinctive characteristics facilitate the identification of potential entry and exit points, thus augmenting trading decisions and enhancing market analysis.
The indicator's parameters, such as the length of the moving average, the data source, and the standard deviation multiplier, can be customized to align with individual trading strategies and preferences.
Originality:
The BBPct + STDC indicator, developed by AlgoAlpha, is an original implementation that combines the calculation of Bollinger Bands, percentile ranking, the %Stdev histogram and the STDC. While it shares some similarities with the Bollinger Bands %B indicator, the BBPct indicator introduces additional elements and customization options tailored to AlgoAlpha's methodology. The script is released under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, granting users the freedom to utilize and modify it while adhering to the license terms.
Technical Candle Alerts [SS]Releasing this fun little project indicator.
What is it?
The Technical Candle Alert indicator provides alerts based on multiple underlying technicals, including MFI, RSI, Stochastics, Z-Score, Pivot points and the EMA 50 and EMA 200 Death and Golden Cross.
What does it do?
The indicator looks back over a designated timeframe to look for max and min values of technicals, as well as track the EMA200 and EMA50.
When a candle approaches a previous max zone, pivot point or there is a death or golden cross, the indicator will signal on the candle that has triggered this event. Then you, as the trader, can determine whether you want to listen to the signal or ignore it.
How Does it Work?
The indicator is set to default and generally accepted settings for technicals, however you can modify them as you prefer.
The indicator is also programmed to identify the strongest trend period and set that as the lookback length. The theory is, you want to look at max and min technicals as well as pivot points in a recent area of a strong trend. However, if you want to over-ride the auto trend identification, you can simply unselect "Autotrend" and put in your desired manual lookback length.
The indicator will then keep track of max values for the various technicals and present you with alerts directly over the candle when a Max or Min value is triggered, or a pivot point is entered, etc.
Here are some examples:
Golden Cross:
Death Cross:
Previous Pivot Points:
Various Alerts:
Customization:
You can customize which alerts you want to turn off and on.
As well, there is a signal delay setting (wait setting). This prevents repeated, unnecessary signaling of the same signal. The default wait time is 5 signals, however you can adjust based on your desired tolerance. If you want it to always signal, adjust it to 0.
As indicated before, you can also adjust all of the technicals and the pivot bars for high and low pivots and you can manually set your lookback length.
That is the indicator in a nutshell, let me know if you have any questions that may not have been covered in the description. Its pretty straight forward once you play around with it.
Safe trades everyone and thanks for checking this out!

Overview :
The Stochastic Trend Evaluator (STE) is a sophisticated trading tool designed for TradingView that combines stochastic oscillation analysis with Exponential Moving Average (EMA) trends. It is tailored to assist traders in identifying potential buy and sell opportunities in various market conditions, particularly focusing on trend reversals and momentum shifts.
Functionality & Concept :
The STE is built on two core components – the Stochastic Oscillator and the 200-period EMA.
Stochastic Oscillator :
This oscillator is a momentum indicator comparing a particular closing price of a security to a range of its prices over a certain period.
Settings:
- %K Length: 14
- %K Smoothing: 3
- %D Smoothing: 3
The %K line is the main line indicating momentum, while the %D line is a moving average of %K, providing signal triggers.
200 EMA :
The 200-period EMA serves as a dynamic trend indicator.
It helps in distinguishing between bullish and bearish market phases.
A closing price above the 200 EMA suggests a bullish trend, while below it indicates a bearish trend.
Signal Generation :
STE generates signals based on the interaction between the Stochastic Oscillator and the 200 EMA.
Buy Signal :
Occurs when the stochastic %K crosses above 20 (indicative of oversold conditions), and the closing price is above the 200 EMA.
Represented visually by green label-up arrows.
Sell Signal :
Triggered when the stochastic %K crosses below 80 (suggestive of overbought conditions), and the closing price is below the 200 EMA.
Indicated by red label-down arrows.
Background Color Indicator :
The background color of the chart changes to enhance visual interpretation of the market condition.
Green background for a bullish market scenario (when a buy signal is active).
Red background for a bearish market scenario (when a sell signal is active).
Usage Guidelines :
The STE is best used in markets that exhibit clear trends.
Ideal for traders focusing on medium to long-term trade setups.
Can be used in conjunction with other indicators for confirmation and risk management.
Note : The STE, being a proprietary tool, is based on a unique blend of standard technical analysis concepts and custom logic to provide these trading signals. It is designed to give traders a comprehensive view of the market momentum and trend strength without revealing the intricate details of its algorithm.
Chaos CypherOverview
Technically a smooth linear rate transformation, the "Chaos Cypher" drew some inspiration from the principles of Markov and chaos. Aside from price action, this combination provides a different lens through which to observe and interpret market movements. Markov models are based on the principle that future states depend only on the current state, not on the sequence of events that preceded it. Chaos theory deals with systems that are highly sensitive to initial conditions, a concept popularly referred to as the butterfly effect.
Efficient with Minimal Data: Designed to perform efficiently, the CC indicator is particularly useful in situations regardless of extensive historical data, except for obvious back testing, while still providing strength at identifying potential overbought/oversold zones and critical divergences.
Simplified Momentum Analysis: With further inspiration from the triple smoothed exponential rate, the CC actually uses linear regression for its calculations. This approach allows for a clear and more straightforward identification of deviations in momentum. The smoothing helps allow it to provide details while still operating at a fast pace due to the regression speed.
Adaptable to Various Timeframes: The transformation calculation then employed effectively narrows its scope in relation to the pace, enhancing its applicability across multiple timeframes and periods. This flexibility makes it a versatile tool suitable for various strategies and market conditions.
Fisher Transform Style Presentation: The indicator is presented in a style reminiscent of the Fisher Transform. However, this method of the script recalculates based on every individual dataset. To maintain efficiency, the adjustable length only applies to the regression rate.
The Chaos Cypher when compared to the Fisher Transform
Inversion Option for Leads: Lastly, an intriguing find when testing this script is the potential of the inversion option. This aspect proved particularly useful when searching for pullbacks on a trending market.
Conclusion
This indicator is designed to be forward-thinking and attempts to combine theoretical concepts with practicality. It has the ability to work with minimal data, adapt to various timeframes, and provide clear views of market movements. It back tested very well even when unrealistically used as a sole instrument.
"Two states differing by imperceptible amounts may eventually evolve into two considerably different states ... If, then, there is any error whatever in observing the present state—and in any real system such errors seem inevitable—an acceptable prediction of an instantaneous state in the distant future may well be impossible....In view of the inevitable inaccuracy and incompleteness of weather observations, precise very-long-range forecasting would seem to be nonexistent." -Edward Norton Lorenz
Blockunity Regime Monitoring (BRM)Efficiently analyze market conditions and detect overheating zones.
Regime Monitoring (BRM) is here to help you analyze the behavior of financial markets. The oscillator allows you to observe when an asset’s trend is likely to reverse. The trend is also given by the indicator, as is the phase the market is in (trending or congested). The BRM also provides the state of the Choppiness Index, indicating whether or not the asset is about to enter a more volatile phase.
The Idea
The goal is to provide the community with a comprehensive tool for tracking market conditions, with a visual approach to identifying overheating zones.
How to Use
This tool consists of 3 main components:
An oscillator, which we describe in detail below.
Bar color to transcribe oscillator information directly onto the graph. To activate Bar Color, make sure the first option is checked in the settings. You must also uncheck "Borders" and "Wick" in your Chart Settings.
A panel that summarizes the status of various indicator information.
Elements
The Regime Monitoring oscillator
The oscillator provides several information points. First, it gives the market trend of the asset:
Green: Bullish trend.
Red: Bearish trend.
Blue: Contested trend.
It then indicates areas of overheating, where it is considered statistically probable that we will see a change in trend dynamics. These moments are shown in yellow.
This market trend is also indicated in the table.
If you see that the oscillator is above or below these limits, but not yellow, this is because we use a Choppiness Index to filter this information.
The "Enable Choppiness Index Filter" is enabled by default in the settings. So, if the Chop is discharged (under 38.2), then the oscillator's overheating state is ignored.
You can see the difference in the images below, the first with the filter and the other without:
Market Phase
We use a Vertical Horizontal Filter (VHF) to define the market phase the asset is in. This phase can have two values:
Trending: Assets evolve within a trend.
Congestion: The asset is in a moment of congestion.
Chop State
Visualize the Choppiness Index, indicating whether an asset is gearing up to enter a phase of increased volatility. It can be:
Charged: Chop is considered to indicate to be entering a stable phase.
Neutral: Chop is neutral and does not provide any specific information.
Discharged: Chop is considered to indicate a continuation of the trend.
In addition, with the "Show Choppiness Index" option, you can plot the Chop on the oscillator:
Other Settings
You can also modify the standard Regime Monitoring parameters (Lookback, Smoothing, Limits), display or hide certain components, and change all the colors.
How it Works
Regime Monitoring's main oscillator is established as follows:
We calculate the percentage of times the closing price was higher than the opening price. This is then divided by a lookback period, which in this case defaults to 20. This calculation gives a probability of the current regime.
Market Forecast w/ Signals [QuantVue]The Market Forecast With Signals Indicator is an upgraded version of the popular ThinkorSwim platforms Market Forecast. This upgraded version utilizes stochastic oscillators, moving averages, and momentum calculations to find potential buying and selling opportunities.
Stochastic Oscillator
The indicator calculates three variations of the Fast Stochastic Oscillator for different time periods:
🔹Intermediate: Calculated over a medium-term period (default 31 bars).
🔹Momentum: Calculated over a short-term period (default 5 bars).
🔹Near Term: Calculated over a very short-term period (default 3 bars).
These calculations involve finding the highest and lowest values within their respective periods and comparing the current close to this range.
Moving Average Smoothing
The results of the Fast Stochastic Oscillator for the Intermediate and Near Term are then smoothed using a Simple Moving Average (SMA):
🔹Intermediate: 5-period SMA of the Intermediate Stochastic Oscillator.
🔹Near Term: 2-period SMA of the Near Term Stochastic Oscillator.
Momentum Indicator
A custom momentum calculation is performed, using the recent high and low prices over four periods.

The indicator plots the smoothed Intermediate, Near Term, and custom Momentum calculations as separate lines on the chart.
Trading Signals
While the original indicator plots the lines mentioned above, the Market Forecast w/ Signals goes a step further by identifying key moments when nuanced signals fire. The built in alerts and visual aids make spotting these trading opportunities a breeze.
Clusters - Bullish and Bearish clusters are identified based on the convergence of all three lines (Intermediate, Near, and Momentum) above 80 (Bearish) or below 20 (Bullish).
The background color of the chart changes to indicate these clusters, aiding in quick identification of market extremes.
Trend Reversals - Marked with labels on the chart, this is based on the direction of the cluster (bullish or bearish) and the subsequent price movement crossing a threshold determined during the cluster formation.
Divergences - Divergences between the Near Term line and price highs/lows are detected using pivot points. These divergences are then plotted as lines on the chart, highlighting potential discrepancies between price action and momentum, which can signal reversals.

RSI MFI MultiTimeframe Oversold/OverboughtHello Traders,
This indicator is designed to easily visualize the overbought/oversold states of RSI and MFI across multiple timeframes.
The indicator is very straightforward.
The deeper the red, the closer it is to 0, and the deeper the green, the closer it is to 100. The intermediate values are rendered in a transparent gray to focus on the key regions.
However, I understand that traders may have an interest in knowing the most recent state of the oscillator, whether it was overbought or oversold.
For this reason, I have included the 'Gradient Color' option in the color settings.
By turning off this option, you can easily see at a glance which region the oscillator was in most recently.
(Gradient Color Option Off)
In addition, I know that many traders are interested in the actual RSI/MFI values across multiple timeframes.
Thus, I have displayed the RSI/MFI values for each timeframe on the far right.
Furthermore, although the name of this indicator is RSI MFI MultiTimeframe Oversold/Overbought, I have also included the Stochastic RSI as an option, as I find it personally useful.
Feel free to use it if you find it helpful.
TSI Market Timer + Volatility MeterThis is the TSI Market Timer. It is years in the making and it is comprised of four indicators in one. The stock (or source) is run through an indicator called the True Strength Indicator with settings(5,15) , then the TSI is run on both the Index(SPY) by default and what I call a Trigger line which is basically the TSI applied to the DXY (US Dollar Index).
Midline Volatility Indicator:
Lastly, we have a volatility indicator on the midline. The colors of the midline indicate levels of volatility. For the lowest volatility in the last 100 days, the dot turns dark blue. For the lowest volatility in 30 days, the dot turns aqua. For regular volatility, it remains orange. And last, for higher volatility of the last 100 days, it turns red. These are more or less arbitrary but they do come in handy.
Settings for Green/Red Shading:
Next on the indicator are the settings. You can toggle a color change between the stock/source and the index(spy). If the stock/source is greater than the index, it will color the area in between a green and if it is below the index, it will be red.
There is also a toggle for the stock/source and the trigger/DXY. This will also show green when the stock is above the trigger and red if it is below the trigger.
By turning on both of these, you get light green and dark green areas as well as red and darker red areas. The lighter green represent when the stock is above both the index and the trigger and conversely for the red areas.
Settings for vertical line crossings:
When the stock crosses the trigger/dxy line, it shows a green vertical line signal. When the stock crosses below the trigger/dxy, a red vertical line is shown.
You can turn these off by toggling them in the settings.
Stacked Condition:
Lastly, we have a "stacked condition" which shows up as a white triangle at the bottom when the condition of the stock being above the index and the trigger below the zero line.
New Highs:
If you see the stock line turn lime green, this indicates a new high was reached for the last 255 days/periods. This is like a new 52 week high signal.
Note:
This indicator is made mostly for the stock market. It may work ok during the week for crypto but using the trigger/dxy and index lines on the weekends doesn't work too well as they will be flat.
Also note that this indicator is not a recommendation to buy or sell any stock/instrument. It is only a study of market conditions. Any analysis should be followed up with volume analysis or other confirming indicators.
Advanced Divergence OscillatorIntroduction to ADO
The Advanced Divergence Oscillator (ADO) is a modern tool crafted for traders in various markets like stocks, forex, or cryptocurrencies. Imagine it as a smart gadget that helps you understand the ebb and flow of market prices. Unlike standard tools, ADO provides a more nuanced view, enabling you to grasp subtle changes in market trends.
Functionality of ADO
ADO operates by observing and comparing market price movements over different timeframes. Picture a racetrack where cars are moving at various speeds. Some are racing ahead, while others are gradually picking up pace. ADO keeps track of these varying 'speeds' in market prices.
By analyzing these movements, ADO generates a smooth, flowing line – the oscillator. This line moves in a wave-like pattern, offering hints about the market's momentum and possible future trends. When the line moves up, it suggests increasing prices, and when it moves down, it hints at falling prices.
How to Use ADO
Setup: You can easily integrate ADO into your trading platform, adjusting settings like length and color to suit your preference.
Reading the Oscillator: Watch for the oscillator's movement. Rising and falling patterns can indicate potential buying or selling opportunities.
Identifying Divergences: ADO excels in spotting divergences – situations where market prices and the oscillator don't align. For instance, if prices are climbing but the oscillator is falling, it might signal a potential price drop ahead.
Brief History of the Ultimate Oscillator
The concept of oscillators in trading isn’t new. The Ultimate Oscillator, developed by Larry Williams in the 1970s, is a foundational tool in this field. Williams' innovation was to combine short, intermediate, and long-term market trends into a single oscillator. This approach offered a more comprehensive market view, helping traders make informed decisions.
The ADO is a step further in this evolution. It takes the core principles of the Ultimate Oscillator and enhances them with proper smoothing and divergence detection methods. This evolution represents the continuous effort in the trading community to refine tools for better market analysis and decision-making.
Fisher Transform RevisitedFisher Transform developped by Ehlers is used mostly to detect peaks and troughs, which it does with little lag, but there are many false signals. Looking at its formula and construction, we can revisit it for the purpose of detecting trends and flat market.
How do we want to do that? There are 3 different actions:
Increase the default value from usual 9 or 10 to 30
Show the indicator as seen from upper time frame with synthetic rolling candles
Change the weights in first formula in order to saturate the input signal, push the trend data to the limits, so therefore leaving a good view when market is flat
As can be seen from the chart above, the revisited Fisher is above 2 for uptrend markets, below -2 for downtrending markets and in-between when the market is flat.
Notes
Weights for Fisher transform formula can be changed as parameters. Recommended valeus are 0.6 and 0.6 to saturate signal. You may come back to original formula by setting 0.33 and 0.66.
Parameter n allows view from upper time, a multiple of current time frame. n = 1 for current chart, n = 5 for 5 minutes view on the 1 min chart
Usage
Of course, it should be not be used in standalone mode. Indicator is for trend traders who can stay away when market is flat. Trend start when indicator goes above 2 but like all trade indicators, it will be late; it is therefore a good idea to change n back to 1 to get a timely entry, to be confirmed of course with other elements of technical analysis.
Multi-data oscillatorThe multi-data oscillator is a tool created to help traders visualize clearly how an oscillator works and moves considering different input parameters.
In this tool, you can choose to visualize the script as the RSI, the CCI, the LOC indicator, a custom-created formula that simply shows the location of the data considering X past values, or the average of all of these three indicators.
In the settings, you can choose both the length of the indicator and the smoothing factor.
Additionally, the indicator has a gradient color that changes considering the deviation and the variance of the different lines used to calculate the average line, displayed with more thickness.
RS for VPAThis is a supporting Indicator for the Volume Price Analysis Script VPA 5.0.
Purpose
To indicate the performance of the stock compared to an Index or any other selected stock. It also provides an idea about the strength of the Reference Index as well.
Description
The indicator is an unbound oscillator moving around a zero line. If the stock is strong then the values are positive and if it is weak the values are negative. If the stock is performing better (Stronger) than the Index the indicator is positive and colored green. If the stock is weaker than the Index it is negative and is colored Red.
The background indicates the strength of the Reference Index/Stock. Bullishness/up trend of the Index/Stock is indicated by yellow colour. Short term uptrend, Mid term uptrend and Long term trends are indicated by different shades of yellow varying from light to Dark. The bearishness / down trend is indicated by blue back ground.
How it Works
The relative strength is calculated by using the formula
RS = Gain of the stock / (Gain of the Ref. Index -1)
= (Stock Price today / Stock Price (N period ago)) /
(Index Price today / Index price (N period ago)) – 1
The Index strength is calculated as below
Short term trend up = 5 ema > 22 ema
Mid Term trend up = 22 ema > 60 ema
Long term trend up = 60 ema > 130 ema
Trend down = 5 ema < 22 ema
How to use
Use this indicator to assist your Price Action Analysis using VPA 5.0. When the Price action and volume indicates Bullishness, you can check if the relative strength is also supporting (Positive and in green Territory). This adds credibility to the Price action. Also check if the index is also positive (the Back ground is yellow). This makes the Price action even stronger. Ideally both the stock and index should be strong. Many time you would find the that the stock is in green territory but the index is in blue territory. This calls for some caution in evaluating the Price Action.
When the price action is positive but the relative strength is negative then one should be cautious and wait for the relative strength to turn positive before any entry decision.
Option for the Indicator
One can select the following from the setting for the indicator
1. Index or reference stock – Default is CNX 500
2. Relative Strength Calculation period – Default is 22
3. The EMA periods for the Index/Reference stock strength calculation
[KVA]nRSIThe nRSI stands as a groundbreaking enhancement of the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI), specifically engineered for traders seeking a more refined and accurate tool in fast-moving markets.
Customizable Price Change Period (n): Unlike the traditional RSI which solely relies on a fixed period for average gains and losses, the nRSI introduces an additional parameter, n, to calculate price changes.
This adaptation focuses on minimizing market noise, sharpening the indicator's sensitivity to genuine trends and patterns.
Enhanced Signal Precision : By reducing the influence of short-term price spikes and fluctuations, the nRSI delivers a more precise signal. This precision is particularly crucial in volatile market conditions, where traditional indicators may be swayed by transient movements.
Ideal Usage
Strategic Trading Decisions : Ideal for traders who need to filter out insignificant price movements to make more strategic, informed trading decisions.
Reliable Divergence Spotting : Enhanced noise reduction aids in identifying more reliable divergences, key for predicting potential market reversals.
Trend Confirmation : The smoothed RSI, assisted by the moving average, becomes an invaluable tool for confirming the validity of market trends, minimizing false signals.
