Larry Conners Vix Reversal II Strategy (approx.)This Pine Script™ strategy is a modified version of the original Larry Connors VIX Reversal II Strategy, designed for short-term trading in market indices like the S&P 500. The strategy utilizes the Relative Strength Index (RSI) of the VIX (Volatility Index) to identify potential overbought or oversold market conditions. The logic is based on the assumption that extreme levels of market volatility often precede reversals in price.
How the Strategy Works
The strategy calculates the RSI of the VIX using a 25-period lookback window. The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It ranges from 0 to 100 and is often used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in assets.
Overbought Signal: When the RSI of the VIX rises above 61, it signals a potential overbought condition in the market. The strategy looks for a RSI downtick (i.e., when RSI starts to fall after reaching this level) as a trigger to enter a long position.
Oversold Signal: Conversely, when the RSI of the VIX drops below 42, the market is considered oversold. A RSI uptick (i.e., when RSI starts to rise after hitting this level) serves as a signal to enter a short position.
The strategy holds the position for a minimum of 7 days and a maximum of 12 days, after which it exits automatically.
Larry Connors: Background
Larry Connors is a prominent figure in quantitative trading, specializing in short-term market strategies. He is the co-author of several influential books on trading, such as Street Smarts (1995), co-written with Linda Raschke, and How Markets Really Work. Connors' work focuses on developing rules-based systems using volatility indicators like the VIX and oscillators such as RSI to exploit mean-reversion patterns in financial markets.
Risks of the Strategy
While the Larry Connors VIX Reversal II Strategy can capture reversals in volatile market environments, it also carries significant risks:
Over-Optimization: This modified version adjusts RSI levels and holding periods to fit recent market data. If market conditions change, the strategy might no longer be effective, leading to false signals.
Drawdowns in Trending Markets: This is a mean-reversion strategy, designed to profit when markets return to a previous mean. However, in strongly trending markets, especially during extended bull or bear phases, the strategy might generate losses due to early entries or exits.
Volatility Risk: Since this strategy is linked to the VIX, an instrument that reflects market volatility, large spikes in volatility can lead to unexpected, fast-moving market conditions, potentially leading to larger-than-expected losses.
Scientific Literature and Supporting Research
The use of RSI and VIX in trading strategies has been widely discussed in academic research. RSI is one of the most studied momentum oscillators, and numerous studies show that it can capture mean-reversion effects in various markets, including equities and derivatives.
Wong et al. (2003) investigated the effectiveness of technical trading rules such as RSI, finding that it has predictive power in certain market conditions, particularly in mean-reverting markets .
The VIX, often referred to as the “fear index,” reflects market expectations of volatility and has been a focal point in research exploring volatility-based strategies. Whaley (2000) extensively reviewed the predictive power of VIX, noting that extreme VIX readings often correlate with turning points in the stock market .
Modified Version of Original Strategy
This script is a modified version of Larry Connors' original VIX Reversal II strategy. The key differences include:
Adjusted RSI period to 25 (instead of 2 or 4 commonly used in Connors’ other work).
Overbought and oversold levels modified to 61 and 42, respectively.
Specific holding period (7 to 12 days) is predefined to reduce holding risk.
These modifications aim to adapt the strategy to different market environments, potentially enhancing performance under specific volatility conditions. However, as with any system, constant evaluation and testing in live markets are crucial.

Butterfly Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Harmonic Detector🔵 Introduction
The Butterfly Harmonic Pattern is a sophisticated and highly regarded tool in technical analysis, utilized by traders to identify potential reversal points in the financial markets. This pattern is distinguished by its reliance on Fibonacci ratios and geometric configurations, which aid in predicting price movements with remarkable precision.
The origin of the Butterfly Harmonic Pattern can be traced back to the pioneering work of Bryce Gilmore, who is credited with discovering this pattern. Gilmore's extensive research and expertise in Fibonacci ratios laid the groundwork for the identification and application of this pattern in technical analysis.
The Butterfly pattern, like other harmonic patterns, is based on the principle that market movements are not random but follow specific structures and ratios.
The pattern is characterized by a distinct "M" shape in bullish scenarios and a "W" shape in bearish scenarios, each indicating a potential reversal point. These formations are identified by specific Fibonacci retracement and extension levels, making the Butterfly pattern a powerful tool for traders seeking to capitalize on market turning points.
The precise nature of the Butterfly pattern allows for the accurate prediction of target prices and the establishment of strategic entry and exit points, making it an indispensable component of a trader's analytical arsenal.
Bullish :
Bearish :
🔵 How to Use
Like other harmonic patterns, the Butterfly pattern is categorized based on how it forms at the end of an uptrend or downtrend. Unlike the Gartley and Bat patterns, the Butterfly pattern, similar to the Crab pattern, forms outside the wave 3 range at the end of a rally.
🟣 Types of Butterfly Harmonic Patterns
🟣 Bullish Butterfly Pattern
This pattern forms at the end of a downtrend and leads to a trend reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend.
🟣 Bearish Butterfly Pattern
In contrast to the Bullish Butterfly pattern, this pattern forms at the end of an uptrend and warns analysts of a trend reversal to a downtrend. In this case, traders are encouraged to shift their trading stance from buy trades to sell trades.
Advantages and Limitations of the Butterfly Pattern in Technical Analysis :
The Butterfly pattern is considered one of the precise and stable tools in financial market analysis. However, it is always important to pay special attention to the advantages and limitations of each pattern.
Here, we review the advantages and disadvantages of using the Butterfly harmonic pattern :
The main advantage of the Butterfly pattern is providing very accurate signals.
Using Fibonacci golden ratios and geometric rules, the Butterfly pattern identifies patterns accurately and systematically. (This high accuracy significantly helps investors in making trading decisions.)
Identifying this pattern requires expertise and experience in technical analysis.
Recognizing the Butterfly pattern might be complex for beginner traders. (Correct identification of the pattern necessitates mastery over geometric principles and Fibonacci ratios.)
The Butterfly harmonic pattern might issue false trading signals. (Traders usually combine the Butterfly pattern with other technical tools to confirm buy and sell signals.)
🔵 Setting
🟣 Logical Setting
ZigZag Pivot Period : You can adjust the period so that the harmonic patterns are adjusted according to the pivot period you want. This factor is the most important parameter in pattern recognition.
Show Valid Forma t: If this parameter is on "On" mode, only patterns will be displayed that they have exact format and no noise can be seen in them. If "Off" is, the patterns displayed that maybe are noisy and do not exactly correspond to the original pattern.
Show Formation Last Pivot Confirm : if Turned on, you can see this ability of patterns when their last pivot is formed. If this feature is off, it will see the patterns as soon as they are formed. The advantage of this option being clear is less formation of fielded patterns, and it is accompanied by the latest pattern seeing and a sharp reduction in reward to risk.
Period of Formation Last Pivot : Using this parameter you can determine that the last pivot is based on Pivot period.
🟣 Genaral Setting

This innovative indicator not only reverses the traditional candlestick chart but also inverts the Ichimoku Cloud components, providing a comprehensive view of the market's inverted behavior.
Key Features:
Reversed Candlestick Chart:
The indicator recalculates the OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) prices by reversing them along the price axis. This means that what typically would be an upward movement is displayed as a downward movement, and vice versa. This reversal provides an alternative view that can help traders identify hidden patterns and potential reversal points that might not be obvious on a standard chart.
Reversed Ichimoku Cloud:
All components of the Ichimoku Cloud indicator are recalculated based on the reversed price data. This includes:
Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line): Reversed based on the highest and lowest prices over the specified period.
Kijun-sen (Base Line): Reversed in a similar manner to the Tenkan-sen, providing a medium-term perspective on price trends.
Senkou Span A (Leading Span A): Reversed to form one boundary of the Kumo (cloud), offering insight into future support and resistance levels.
Senkou Span B (Leading Span B): Reversed to form the other boundary of the Kumo, complementing Senkou Span A.
Chikou Span (Lagging Span): Reversed and plotted backward for additional confirmation of trend direction and strength.
Dynamic Price Range Calculation:
The indicator dynamically calculates the maximum and minimum prices over the last 500 bars (or the available range if fewer bars are present). This ensures that the reversal is always based on the most relevant data, providing accurate and up-to-date visualizations.
Visual Enhancements:
The reversed candlesticks are color-coded for easy interpretation: green for upward movements and red for downward movements, based on the reversed data.
The Ichimoku Cloud is filled with semi-transparent colors to clearly distinguish between bullish and bearish conditions even in its reversed state.
Debugging Aids:
For transparency and accuracy, the indicator plots the maximum and minimum price lines used for the reversal calculations. This allows users to verify the internal workings of the indicator and ensure the reversal logic is correctly applied.
Usage:
This indicator is ideal for advanced traders and analysts who want to explore market behavior from an unconventional angle. By reversing both the candlestick chart and the Ichimoku Cloud, it provides a unique perspective that can uncover new trading opportunities and enhance market analysis.
Customization:
Users can customize the periods for the Tenkan-sen, Kijun-sen, and Senkou Span B, as well as the displacement for the Ichimoku Cloud. This flexibility allows traders to adapt the indicator to their specific trading strategies and timeframes.
Conclusion:
The "Advanced Fully Reversed Candles with Reversed Ichimoku" indicator is a powerful tool that transforms traditional market analysis. By inverting both price movements and key technical indicators, it opens up a new dimension of trading insights, helping traders to see the market in a completely different light.

Trend Tide Oscillator [UAlgo]🔶 Description:
The "Trend Tide Oscillator " is a technical analysis tool designed to identify potential trend reversals and overbought/oversold conditions in the market. It calculates an oscillator based on the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and then applies smoothing techniques to provide a clearer view of market momentum.
🔶 Key Features:
Oscillator Calculation : The indicator calculates an oscillator based on the Commodity Channel Index (CCI), which is a momentum-based oscillator used to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Smoothing : Smoothing techniques are applied to the oscillator to reduce noise and provide a clearer view of market momentum. This helps traders in identifying trends more effectively.
Support and Resistance Zones : The indicator plots support and resistance zones based on the highest and lowest values of the oscillator over a specified lookback (default 50) period. These zones can help traders identify potential areas of price reversal. The indicator considers volatility when plotting the support and resistance zones. This aims to create more adaptable levels that account for fluctuating market conditions.
Visualization : The indicator visually represents overbought and oversold conditions with shapes (⚠️), aiding traders in quickly identifying potential entry or exit points.
Customization : Users can adjust parameters such as oscillator length, smoothing, and overbought/oversold levels, support and resistance lookbacks according to their trading preferences.
🔶 Disclaimer :
This indicator is provided for informational and educational purposes only and should not be considered as financial advice. Trading in the financial markets involves risk, and users should conduct their own research and analysis before making any investment decisions.
QQE Weighted Oscillator [LuxAlgo]The QQE (Quantitative Qualitative Estimation) Weighted Oscillator improves on its original version by weighting the RSI based on the indications given by the trailing stop, requiring more effort in order for a cross with the trailing stop to occur.
🔶 USAGE
The QQE Weighted Oscillator is comprised of a smoothed RSI oscillator and a trailing stop derived from this same RSI. The oscillator can be used to indicate whether the market is overbought/oversold as well as an early indication of trend reversals thanks to the leading nature of the RSI.
Using higher Factor values will return a longer-term trailing stop.
Like with a regular RSI divergence can be indicative of a reversal.
Further weighting will control how much "effort" is required for the trailing stop to cross the RSI. For example. For example, an RSI above the trailing stop will require a higher degree of negative price variations in order for a potential cross to occur when using higher weights.
This can cause higher weightings to return more cyclical and smoother results.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Length of the RSI oscillator.
Factor: Multiplicative factor used for the trailing stop calculation.
Smooth: Degree of smoothness of the RSI oscillator.
Weight: Degree of weighting used for the RSI calculation.
HyperTrend [LuxAlgo]The HyperTrend indicator aims to provide a real-time estimate of an underlying linear trend in the price. Support and resistance extremities are constructed from this estimate which can provide trade opportunities within the overall trend.
Most tools that return lines on a chart are either subject to backpainting or repainting. We aimed to provide a reliable real-time method to estimate linear trends in the price, enhancing traders' decision making processes when it comes to trading trends in price, hence the term 'HyperTrend'.
🔶 USAGE
Users can use the HyperTrend to easily determine the trend direction in the price, with an average sloping upward indicating an uptrend, and an average sloping downward indicating a downtrend.
The channels upper extremity can act as a resistance, while the lower extremity can act as a support. Contact with candle wicks can signal timely reversals/retracements.
Using a higher "Multiplicative Factor" value will return less frequent new channels, and is suitable to analyze longer-term trends. The slope settings on the other end allow us to control the slope of the returned channels, with higher values returning flatter results (similar to our previously posted predictive ranges).
🔹 Channel Average
The channel average can return an estimate of the current (and future) trend in the price, the chart below shows an interval where a linear regression is displayed alongside the channel average:
Unlike the linear regression, the average does not have any lookahead bias, this of course comes at the price of accuracy in most cases.
Users can also use this average as a support or resistance. The breakout of a TC average that has been tested multiple times can be considered more significant in suggesting a trend reversal.
🔶 SETTINGS
Multiplicative Factor: Control the allowed degree of deviation of the price from the average line. Higher values will return less frequent new channels.
Slope: Controls the steepness of the returned lines. Higher values will return flatter results.
Width %: Width percentage of the channel. Lower results will return narrower channels.

Sushi Trend [HG]🍣 The Sushi Roll, a trading concept conceived at a restaurant by Mark Fisher.
While the indicator itself goes by Sushi Trend, it is completely backed by the idea of Mark Fisher's Sushi Roll Reversal Pattern. No, it has nothing to do with raw fish, it just so happens that somebody was ordering sushi during the discussion of the idea, and that's how it got its name.
📝 Origin
First mentioned in his book, The Logical Trader --- the idea of the Sushi Roll is to serve as an early warning system to identify reversals in the market. Fisher defines the pattern as a series of 10 bars, split into two different sections, seen as 5 and 5. In order for the pattern to be emitted, the 5 bars to the right must completely engulf the 5 bars to the left. It's not a super complex system and is in fact extremely simple to grasp.
📈 Supertrend Similarities
Instead of displaying the pattern in the way Fisher meant for it to be portrayed (as seen in the photo above), I instead turned it into an indicator similar to that of Supertrend while also inheriting the same concepts from the pattern. I did this because the pattern itself has inconsistencies which can be quite noticeable when trading with it after a while. For example, these patterns can occur even during consolidating periods, and even though the pattern is meant to be recognized during trending markets, the engulfing bars can sometimes be left with indecisive directions.
➡️ The Result
Here is the result, visualized to be better in a trending format. (The indicator will not contain the boxes.)
While Fisher does mention the pattern to include 10 bars, you can actually use this pattern with any number of bars. At the end of the day, it's a concept derived from a discussion at a Japanese restaurant, and a pattern that has been around for years that has seen results. Due to this, I added an input option to control the series of bars for right-bar engulf detection.
To reassure the meaning of the pattern --> "A series of 10 bars" means 5 left bars and 5 right bars. So if you want to check if 5 right bars are engulfing the previous 5 bars (as seen in the photo above), you would want to select 5 in the input settings.

Trampoline DotsTrampoline Dots (Price Divergence)
Higher Time Frame Price Divergence:
Trampoline Dots serve as a "quick bounce" tool. These little dots will trigger whenever the higher aggregation MACD is above / below zero and the price is below / above the 50 period simple moving average. When these criteria are met, the price is usually under pressure of strong divergence, more often than not price will sharply reverse into the trend direction usually within the next few bars.
The Use of The Trampoline Dots:
This indicator can serve multiple ways. Obviously the main use case is the price divergence. These "dots" will not give you any precise & exact entry. But rather a zone of possible incoming reversal. There is no timing to it. All these dots will do is warn you about potential sharp reversal in the upcoming bars. It can be used by itself alone for sure, but the best way to utilize the dots is to use them in combination of other trend or momentum studies. The best signals are the ones that are within the larger time frame trend. Another great thing is that the visuals are really straight-forward and simple. It is either green dot or a red dot. Nothing more, nothing less. Also since the indicator is pretty small, it can be easily layered onto other studies as well which can create an additional confirmation for different patterns or setups.
Which Time Frame Are Reliable?
This indicator works on any time frame. But the most "stable" one is the daily & hourly time frame. My personal favorite is the hourly since these divergences can produce amazing entries in the daily trends (which are usually hidden on the daily chart). In the most aggresive trends, I like to see the green dots triggering around the 8 EMA and 13 EMA. Daily chart can show the daily and weekly (big divergences) that can take multiple days & weeks to resolve.
Hope it helps.
Nadaraya-Watson: Envelope (Non-Repainting)Due to popular request, this is an envelope implementation of my non-repainting Nadaraya-Watson indicator using the Rational Quadratic Kernel. For more information on this implementation, please refer to the original indicator located here:
What is an Envelope?
In technical analysis, an "envelope" typically refers to a pair of upper and lower bounds that surrounds price action to help characterize extreme overbought and oversold conditions. Envelopes are often derived from a simple moving average (SMA) and are placed at a predefined distance above and below the SMA from which they were generated. However, envelopes do not necessarily need to be derived from a moving average; they can be derived from any estimator, including a kernel estimator such as Nadaraya-Watson.
How to use this indicator?
Overall, this indicator offers a high degree of flexibility, and the location of the envelope's bands can be adjusted by (1) tweaking the parameters for the Rational Quadratic Kernel and (2) adjusting the lookback window for the custom ATR calculation. In a trending market, it is often helpful to use the Nadaraya-Watson estimate line as a floating SR and/or reversal zone. In a ranging market, it is often more convenient to use the two Upper Bands and two Lower Bands as reversal zones.
How are the Upper and Lower bounds calculated?
In this indicator, the Rational Quadratic (RQ) Kernel estimates the price value at each bar in a user-defined lookback window. From this estimation, the upper and lower bounds of the envelope are calculated based on a custom ATR calculated from the kernel estimations for the high, low, and close series, respectively. These calculations are then scaled against a user-defined multiplier, which can be used to further customize the Upper and Lower bounds for a given chart.
How to use Kernel Estimations like this for other indicators?
Kernel Functions are highly underrated, and when calibrated correctly, they have the potential to provide more value than any mundane moving average. For those interested in using non-repainting Kernel Estimations for technical analysis, I have written a Kernel Functions library that makes it easy to access various well-known kernel functions quickly. The Rational Quadratic Kernel is used in this implementation, but one can conveniently swap out other kernels from the library by modifying only a single line of code. For more details and usage examples, please refer to the Kernel Functions library located here:
Triple RSI strategyThis strategy is commonly used both in forex and stock markets for reversal trading. when the rsi line reaches and crosses simultaneously at 3 rsi setups i.e at 7, 14, and 21, a signal is generated.
This strategy works best in 1-hour timeframe. It provides over 60 to 80 percent accuracy in 1-hour timeframe.
In the stock market, this strategy provides an excellent entry point, if one is seeking small profits.
One can expect to make around 10 to 50 pips in the forex market easily. However, I advise seeking support from price action from the lower timeframe in the forex market.
I hope you like it.

Optimised RSI strategy for Reversals (by Coinrule)The most common way to use the RSI to spot a good buy opportunity is to check for values lower than 30. Unfortunately, the RSI can remain in oversold territory for long periods, and that could leave you trapped in a trade in loss. It would be appropriate to wait for a confirmation of the trend reversal.
In the example above I use a short-term Moving Average (in this case, the MA9) coupled with an RSI lower than 40. This combination of events is relatively rare as reversal confirmations usually come when RSI values are already higher. As unusual as this setup is, it provides buy-opportunities with much higher chances of success.
The parameters of this strategy would be:
ENTRY: RSI lower than 40 and MA9 lower than the price
TAKE PROFIT and STOP-LOSS with a ratio of at least 2. That means that if you set up a take profit of 3%, your stop-loss shouldn’t be larger than 1.5%.
The advantage of this approach is that it has a high rate of success and allows you the flexibility of setting up the percentages of the take profit and stop-loss according to your preferences and risk appetite.
Folded Relative Strength Index [CC]The Folded Relative Strength Index was created by Richard Poster (Stocks and Commodities July 2021 pg 21) and this indicator provides both trend strength but also momentum and of course reversal points using the overbought and oversold markers. If the indicator line is above the mid line then this shows upward momentum and when it falls below the midline then this means it is losing momentum. When the indicator rises above the signal line then this shows upward trend strength and vice versa. Buy when the indicator line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators you would like to see me publish!
ArcTan Oscillator [LuxAlgo]The following indicator is a normalized oscillator making use of the arc tangent sigmoid function (ArcTan), this allows to "squarify" the output result, thus visually filtering out certain variations originally in the oscillator. The magnitude of this effect can be controlled by the user. The indicator contains a gradient that shows the possibility of a reversal, with red colors indicating that a reversal might occur.
Settings
Length : Period of the oscillator
Pre-Gain : Changes the amplitude of the oscillator before passing through the ArcTan function, this allows to amplify/reduce the "squarification" effect introduced by this function. In order to make it easier for the user, the setting is in a (-10,10) range, with negative values reducing the amplitude and positive one increasing it.
Src : Source input of the indicator
Usage
The oscillator can be used to determine the direction of the trend by looking at its sign, if the oscillator is positive, market is up-trending, else down-trending, based on this usage the user might not be interested to look at every variations produced by the oscillator, this is where the hyperbolic tangent function and pre-gain setting can be useful, by using an high value of pre-gain the user will be able to only focus on the sign of the oscillator.
Here pre-gain is set to 5, we can see that the oscillator is now easier to visualize. However, the use of sigmoid functions remove useful information for a trader that needs to find divergences, this is where using a negative value of the pre-gain setting will result useful.
Here pre-gain is set to -5.
The indicator makes use of a gradient to show potential reversals, this gradient is determined by the correlation between the oscillator and the price (this is a way to measure potential divergences). If the color is closer to red it means that a potential reversal might occur, it is possible to say in which direction price might go by looking at the sign of the oscillator, so if the gradient is red and the oscillator is negative price might rise. The gradient is not affected by the pre-gain setting.
(JS)DMI BarsAlright - so this is my own version of John Carter's "10x Bars"... I have done multiple things that are different from his version so they are slightly different..
So first of all the main indicator is based off of the ADX and the DMI;
For those who aren't familiar with it, Directional Movement is what you'd pull up under "built-in's" from the indicators tab (if you want to check it out).
The standard interpretation of this however, is when the ADX is above 20 that suggests the trend is strong, whereas under 20 suggests it is weak.
Also, when the D+ is above the D- that suggests a bullish trend, and D- above D+ suggests a bearish trend.
These bars take away the need to have it at the bottom of your screen, and places the data on the bars on your chart instead.
=========================================================================================================================================
So here's what the colors stand for -
Yellow - The ADX is under 20, no strength in trend
Shades of green occur when the ADX is above 20 and there's a bullish trend (D+ higher than D-)
Bright Green (Lime) - Bullish trend, D+ above 30
Green - Bullish Trend
Yellow Green - Bullish trend, D+ below 15
Shades of red occur when the ADX is above 20 and there's a bearish trend (D- higher than D+)
Bright Red - Bearish trend, D- above 30
Red - Bearish Trend
Orange - Bearish trend, D- below 15
=========================================================================================================================================
I have also added multiple time frame labels (label script used is the one created by Ricardo Santos)
These labels are color coded the same as the bars/candles, and they appear off to the right of your screen using every built in time increment from TradingView.
The purpose is to show you in real time, and on any chart resolution, what the current trend is on every individual time frame.
So using just one single chart you'll see your current resolutions candles, but also on the labels you'll see:
1 Minute
3 Minute
5 Minute
15 Minute
30 Minute
45 Minute
1 Hour
2 Hour
3 Hour
4 Hour
Daily
Weekly
Monthly
There is an input I added that allows you to adjust where your labels appear on the side of your screen as well!
=========================================================================================================================================
Now onto the volume spike portion of the indicator. This will plot a blue dot under each bar that has a spike in volume which meets your specified criteria.
I have 500% as the default setting.
What that means is that this indicator looks back and gets the 50 bar volume average and then applies dots where volume is 500% above average.
=========================================================================================================================================
Now finally, the reversal arrows. This is another simple to understand concept that I first read in John Carter's book "Mastering the Trade" that he calls "HOLP/LOHP".
I have added the ability to change the look back period you'd like the indicator to watch for highs and lows on.
What that stands for is 'High of Low Period' and 'Low of High Period', and it is used like this-
Whenever a bar makes a new high the indicator watches the low on that highest bar. Then when a bar afterwards makes a lower low then the one on the high bar,
a reversal arrow is given. Apply this same concept in the other direction in for the highs on the lowest bars.
=========================================================================================================================================
Now, I didn't want to make a "set" or have a bunch of different indicators out there that are all intended for the same package, so I took the time to put them together,
and if there's a part of it you don't care for they can easily be turned off in the settings.
Enjoy!
Projection Oscillator - Mel Widner, Ph.D.For any Mel Widner, Ph.D fans out there, I present this decades old "Projection Oscillator" employing PSv4.0, originally formulated by Mel Widner for TASC - July of 1995 Traders Tips. Just when you may have thought it was the end of the evolutionary line for Mel Widner technology, it's not! Basically it's a hybridization of linear regression, banding, and a stochastic rolled into one. It's purpose is intended to help identify reversal points.
While working on another member's project, I discovered other implementations on TV and a few scarcely found on the internet, they are not entirely correct and not in a package like this. I'm submitting this as a complimentary indicator for their trading system AND also for the TV community for hybridized indicator evolution. My implementation is a heavily modified version of the original indicator using novel techniques, surpassing Widner's original intended design.
Utilizing the "Power of Pine", I included the maximum amount of features I could surmise in an ultra small yet impressive package. Configurations are displayed above in multiple scenarios that should be suitable for most traders. Of notable mention, the original design was a range from 0-100 just like any other stochastic, but I rescaled the oscillator more towards a zero mean unity scale(+/-1.0), while still leaving the waveforms completely intact.
Features List Includes:
Dark Background - Easily disabled in indicator Settings->Style for "Light" charts or with Pine commenting
AND much, much more... you have the source!
For those of you who are new to Pine Script, this script also may help you understand advanced programming techniques in Pine and how they may be utilized in a most effective manner. I would like to see Tradingview become the go to platform for the best indicators attainable with this contribution to the TV community. This is commonly what my dense intricate code looks like behind the veil. If you are wondering why there is no notes, that's because the notation is in the variable naming. If you wish to contribute additional ideas, please do so below in the comments about all things Pine in regards to this indicator.
NOTICE: Copy pasting bandits who may be having nefarious thoughts, DO NOT attempt this, because this may violate Tradingview's terms, conditions and/or house rules regarding publishing and "fair" reuse of code. "WE" are always watching the TV community vigilantly for mischievous behaviors and actions that exploit well intended authors for the purpose of unscrupulously increasing brownie points in reputation scores. Hiding behind a "protected" wall may not protect you from investigation and account penalization by TV staff. Be respectful, and don't just throw a meaningless feature in there, then branding it as "your" gizmo if you reuse this code for publishing another indicator. Fair enough? Alrighty then... I firmly believe in "innovating" future state-of-the-art indicators, and please contact me if you wish to do so.
The comments section below is solely just for commenting and other remarks, ideas, compliments, etc... regarding only this indicator, not others. When available time provides itself, I will consider your inquiries, thoughts, and concepts presented below in the comments section if you do have any questions or comments regarding this indicator. When my indicators achieve more prevalent use by TV members, I may implement more ideas when they present themselves as worthy additions. As always, "Like" it if you simply just like it with a proper thumbs up, and also return to my scripts list occasionally for additional postings. Have a profitable future everyone!
(JS) Tip-and-Dip Oscillator 2.0I am going to start taking requests to open source my indicators and this is the first one I decided to do. They will also be updated to Version 4 of Pinescript.
I went through and added notes on what each area of the code is, and in this particular case I added color schemes as a way to improve upon the original code.
Link to original:
Original Description:
"Let me start by saying I know that the name is goofy lol
This is an oscillator that that looks at price action vs. standard deviation in order to illustrate the trend. This thing looks like an Awesome Oscillator but the math behind this and the Awesome Oscillator are totally different (which is pretty interesting, given they look a lot alike). I included the Awesome Oscillator on the chart here so you can look at them and see where they are different.
So the Tip-and Dip Oscillator is meant to help you pinpoint tops and bottoms. I even added arrows where the top and bottom signals are given.
The oscillator itself has 3 colors, an up, down, and neutral color that come as green, red, and yellow. Since the readings given by the oscillator can greatly vary depending on the chart resolution, I included an option to edit the range to fit your chart.
Also - I have 4 different smoothing options that you can use depending on what your preference is. The default setting is the most sensitive so it will identify tops and bottoms more frequently, but it is the most accurate when pinpointing the correct reversal candle. As you smooth it out, the arrows will appear less, but my be slightly delayed and give a later reading. I personally prefer the default, but going up to the second setting in smoothing works nicely as well.
Enjoy!"

Wick Reversal
When the market has been trending lower then suddenly forms a reversal wick candlestick , the likelihood of
a reversal increases since buyers have finally begun to overwhelm the sellers. Selling pressure rules the decline,
but responsive buyers entered the market due to perceived undervaluation. For the reversal wick to open near the
high of the candle, sell off sharply intra-bar, and then rally back toward the open of the candle is bullish , as it
signifies that the bears no longer have control since they were not able to extend the decline of the candle, or the
trend. Instead, the bulls were able to rally price from the lows of the candle and close the bar near the top of its
range, which is bullish - at least for one bar, which hadn't been the case during the bearish trend.
Essentially, when a reversal wick forms at the extreme of a trend, the market is telling you that the trend
either has stalled or is on the verge of a reversal. Remember, the market auctions higher in search of sellers, and
lower in search of buyers. When the market over-extends itself in search of market participants, it will find itself
out of value, which means responsive market participants will look to enter the market to push price back toward
an area of perceived value. This will help price find a value area for two-sided trade to take place. When the
market finds itself too far out of value, responsive market participants will sometimes enter the market with
force, which aggressively pushes price in the opposite direction, essentially forming reversal wick candlesticks .
This pattern is perhaps the most telling and common reversal setup, but requires steadfast confirmation in order
to capitalize on its power. Understanding the psychology behind these formations and learning to identify them
quickly will allow you to enter positions well ahead of the crowd, especially if you've spotted these patterns at
potentially overvalued or undervalued areas.
Fade (Extreme) Reversal
The extreme reversal setup is a clever pattern that capitalizes on the ongoing psychological patterns of
investors, traders, and institutions. Basically, the setup looks for an extreme pattern of selling pressure and then
looks to fade this behavior to capture a bullish move higher (reverse for shorts). In essence, this setup is visually
pointing out oversold and overbought scenarios that forces responsive buyers and sellers to come out of the dark
and put their money to work-price has been over-extended and must be pushed back toward a fair area of value
so two-sided trade can take place.
This setup works because many normal investors, or casual traders, head for the exits once their trade
begins to move sharply against them. When this happens, price becomes extremely overbought or oversold,
creating value for responsive buyers and sellers. Therefore, savvy professionals will see that price is above or
below value and will seize the opportunity. When the scared money is selling, the smart money begins to buy, and
Vice versa.
Look at it this way, when the market sells off sharply in one giant candlestick , traders that were short
during the drop begin to cover their profitable positions by buying. Likewise, the traders that were on the
sidelines during the sell-off now see value in lower prices and begin to buy, thus doubling up on the buying
pressure. This helps to spark a sharp v-bottom reversal that pushes price in the opposite direction back toward
fair value.
Engulfing (Outside) Reversal
The power behind this pattern lies in the psychology behind the traders involved in this setup. If you have
ever participated in a breakout at support or resistance only to have the market reverse sharply against you, then
you are familiar with the market dynamics of this setup. What exactly is going on at these levels? To understand
this concept is to understand the outside reversal pattern. Basically, market participants are testing the waters
above resistance or below support to make sure there is no new business to be done at these levels. When no
initiative buyers or sellers participate in range extension, responsive participants have all the information they
need to reverse price back toward a new area of perceived value.
As you look at a bullish outside reversal pattern, you will notice that the current bar's low is lower than the
prior bar's low. Essentially, the market is testing the waters below recently established lows to see if a downside
follow-through will occur. When no additional selling pressure enters the market, the result is a flood of buying
pressure that causes a springboard effect, thereby shooting price above the prior bar's highs and creating the
beginning of a bullish advance.
If you recall the child on the trampoline for a moment, you'll realize that the child had to force the bounce
mat down before he could spring into the air. Also, remember Jennifer the cake baker? She initially pushed price
to $20 per cake, which sent a flood of orders into her shop. The flood of buying pressure eventually sent the price
of her cakes to $35 apiece. Basically, price had to test the $20 level before it could rise to $35.
Let's analyze the outside reversal setup in a different light for a moment. One of the reasons I like this setup
is because the two-bar pattern reduces into the wick reversal setup, which we covered earlier in the chapter. If
you are not familiar with candlestick reduction, the idea is simple. You are taking the price data over two or more
candlesticks and combining them to create a single candlestick . Therefore, you will be taking the open, high, low,
and close prices of the bars in question to create a single composite candlestick .
Doji Reversal
The doji candlestick is the epitome of indecision. The pattern illustrates a virtual stalemate between buyers
and sellers, which means the existing trend may be on the verge of a reversal. If buyers have been controlling a
bullish advance over a period of time, you will typically see full-bodied candlesticks that personify the bullish
nature of the move. However, if a doji candlestick suddenly appears, the indication is that buyers are suddenly
not as confident in upside price potential as they once were. This is clearly a point of indecision, as buyers are no
longer pushing price to higher valuation, and have allowed sellers to battle them to a draw-at least for this one
candlestick . This leads to profit taking, as buyers begin to sell their profitable long positions, which is heightened
by responsive sellers entering the market due to perceived overvaluation. This "double whammy" of selling
pressure essentially pushes price lower, as responsive sellers take control of the market and push price back
toward fair value.
First-Move-Wrong Toolkit [CHE] First-Move-Wrong Toolkit — Session-bound sweep rejection with structure confirmation
Summary
This indicator marks potential “first move wrong” reversals during a defined trading session. It looks for a quick sweep beyond the prior day high or low, or the opening range high or low, followed by rejection and a basic structure confirmation. Optional rules require a retest and a VWAP reclaim in the direction of the trade idea. The script renders session levels as right-extended lines, signals as labels, optional SL/TP guide lines for visualization, and background tints during sweep events. Pivots are confirmed using swing width, which reduces repaint risk compared to live swings.
Motivation: Why this design?
Intraday reversals often start with a liquidity sweep around obvious highs or lows. Acting on the sweep alone can be noisy, while waiting for structure break and a retest can be slow. This tool balances both by checking a sweep and rejection at session-relevant levels, then requiring a simple structure cue and, optionally, a retest and a VWAP filter. The goal is a clear, rule-based signal layer that is easy to audit on chart without hidden state.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Baseline reference: Simple sweep detectors or basic CHOCH markers that ignore session context and liquidity anchors.
Architecture differences:
Session-aware opening range tracking that finalizes after the chosen minutes from session start.
Daily previous high and low pulled without lookahead, then extended forward as visual anchors.
Confirmed pivot highs and lows to avoid repaint from live, unconfirmed swings.
Optional retest rule using crossover or crossunder at the trigger level.
Optional VWAP filter to demand reclaim in the intended direction.
Global label cooldown to prevent clusters of signals.
Practical effect: Fewer one-off flips around noisy levels, clearer alignment with session structure, and compact visual feedback through lines, labels, and tints.
How it works (technical)
Levels: During the defined session, the script builds an opening range high and low until the configured minute mark after session start, then freezes those levels for the day. It also fetches the previous day high and low from the daily timeframe without lookahead and extends them forward.
Sweep and rejection: A sweep is defined as price moving beyond a target level and then rejecting back inside on the same bar. The script checks this condition separately for highs and lows against opening range and previous-day levels.
Structure validation: Confirmed pivot highs and lows are computed using a symmetric swing width. A bearish idea requires a prior sweep of a high plus a break through the last confirmed swing low. A bullish idea requires a prior sweep of a low plus a break through the last confirmed swing high.
Optional retest: If enabled, a bearish signal needs a cross under the bearish trigger level; a bullish signal needs a cross over the bullish trigger level.
VWAP filter (optional): The script requires a reclaim of VWAP in the intended direction when enabled.
State handling: Opening range values, previous-day lines, and the label cooldown timestamp are stored in persistent variables. Lines are created once and updated each bar to extend forward.
Repaint considerations: Pivots confirm only after the specified swing width, reducing repaint. The daily level request is performed without lookahead. Signals use closed-bar checks implied by crossover and crossunder logic.
Parameter Guide
Session (local) — Defines the active trading window. Default nine to seventeen. Narrower windows focus on the main session drive.
Opening Range (min) — Minutes from session start to finalize OR levels. Default fifteen. Shorter values react faster; longer values stabilize levels.
Use PrevDay H/L levels — Toggle previous-day anchors. On by default.
Use OR H/L levels — Toggle opening range anchors. On by default.
Equal H/L tolerance (ticks) — Intended tolerance for equal highs or lows. Default one. (Unknown/Optional) in current signals.
Swing width — Bars on both sides for confirmed pivots. Default two. Larger values reduce noise but confirm later.
Require CHOCH after sweep — Enforces structure break after a sweep. On by default.
Prefer retest entries — Requires crossover or crossunder of the trigger level. On by default.
VWAP filter — Demands a reclaim of VWAP in signal direction. Off by default.
TP in R (guide) — Multiplier for visual TP guides. Default one. Visualization only.
Show levels / Show signals / Show R-guides — Rendering toggles. R-guides are visual aids, not orders.
Label cooldown (bars) — Minimum bars between labels. Default five. Higher values reduce clusters.
Palette inputs — Colors and transparencies for levels, labels, VWAP, and tints.
Reading & Interpretation
Lines: Dotted lines represent opening range high and low after the OR window completes. Dashed lines represent previous-day high and low.
Signals: “Long” labels appear after a low-side sweep with rejection and structure confirmation, subject to optional retest and VWAP rules. “Short” labels mirror this on the high side.
Background tints: Red-tinted bars indicate a high-side sweep and rejection. Green-tinted bars indicate a low-side sweep and rejection.
R-guides: Circles display a visual stop level at the bar extreme and a target guide based on the selected multiple. They are informational only.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Session reversal scans: During the first hour, watch for sweeps around previous-day or opening range levels, then wait for structure confirmation and optional retest.
Trend following with filters: Combine signals with higher-timeframe structure or a moving average regime check. Ignore signals against the dominant regime.
Exits and stops: Use the visual stop as a reference near the sweep extreme; adapt the target guide to volatility and market conditions.
Multi-asset / Multi-TF: Works on intraday timeframes for liquid futures, indices, forex, and large-cap equities. Start with default settings and adjust swing width and OR minutes to instrument volatility.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: Pivots confirm after the swing window completes. Signals occur only when conditions are met on closed bars.
security()/HTF: Daily previous-day levels are requested without lookahead to reduce repaint.
Resources: Uses persistent variables and line updates per bar; no heavy loops or arrays.
Known limits: Signals can arrive later when swing width is large. Gaps around session boundaries may distort OR levels. VWAP behavior may vary with partial sessions or illiquid assets.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Starting point: Session nine to seventeen, opening range fifteen minutes, swing width two, CHOCH required, retest on, VWAP off, cooldown five bars.
Too many flips: Increase swing width, enable VWAP filter, or raise label cooldown.
Too sluggish: Reduce swing width or shorten the opening range window.
Too many session-level hits: Disable either previous-day levels or opening range levels to simplify context.

Oscillator Matrix [Alpha Extract]A comprehensive multi-oscillator system that combines volume-weighted money flow analysis with enhanced momentum detection, providing traders with a unified framework for identifying high-probability market opportunities across all timeframes. By integrating two powerful oscillators with advanced confluence analysis, this indicator delivers precise entry and exit signals while filtering out market noise through sophisticated threshold-based regime detection.
🔶 Volume-Weighted Money Flow Analysis
Utilizes an advanced money flow calculation that tracks volume-weighted price movements to identify institutional activity and smart money flow. This approach provides superior signal quality by emphasizing high-volume price movements while filtering out low-volume market noise.
// Volume-weighted flows
up_volume = price_up ? volume : 0
down_volume = price_down ? volume : 0
// Money Flow calculation
up_vol_sum = ta.sma(up_volume, mf_length)
down_vol_sum = ta.sma(down_volume, mf_length)
total_volume = up_vol_sum + down_vol_sum
money_flow_ratio = total_volume > 0 ? (up_vol_sum - down_vol_sum) / total_volume : 0
🔶 Enhanced Hyper Wave Oscillator
Features a sophisticated MACD-based momentum oscillator with advanced normalization techniques that adapt to different price ranges and market volatility. The system uses percentage-based calculations to ensure consistent performance across various instruments and timeframes.
// Enhanced MACD-based oscillator
fast_ma = ta.ema(src, hw_fast)
slow_ma = ta.ema(src, hw_slow)
macd_line = fast_ma - slow_ma
signal_line = ta.ema(macd_line, hw_signal)
// Proper normalization using percentage of price
price_base = ta.sma(close, 50)
macd_normalized = macd_line / price_base
hyper_wave = macd_range > 0 ? macd_normalized / macd_range : 0
🔶 Multi-Factor Confluence System
Implements an intelligent confluence scoring mechanism that combines signals from both oscillators to identify high-probability trading opportunities. The system assigns strength scores based on multiple confirmation factors, significantly reducing false signals.
🔶 Fixed Threshold Levels
Uses predefined threshold levels optimized for standard oscillator ranges to distinguish between normal market fluctuations and significant momentum shifts. The dual-threshold system provides clear visual cues for overbought/oversold conditions while maintaining consistent signal criteria across different market conditions.
🔶 Overflow Detection Technology
Advanced overflow indicators identify extreme market conditions that often precede major reversals or continuation patterns. These signals highlight moments when market momentum reaches critical levels, providing early warning for potential turning points.
🔶 Dual Oscillator Integration
The indicator simultaneously tracks volume-weighted money flow and momentum-based price action through two independent oscillators. This dual approach ensures comprehensive market analysis by capturing both institutional activity and technical momentum patterns.
// Multi-factor confluence scoring
confluence_bull = (mf_bullish ? 1 : 0) + (hw_bullish ? 1 : 0) +
(mf_overflow_bull ? 1 : 0) + (hw_overflow_bull ? 1 : 0)
confluence_bear = (mf_bearish ? 1 : 0) + (hw_bearish ? 1 : 0) +
(mf_overflow_bear ? 1 : 0) + (hw_overflow_bear ? 1 : 0)
confluence_strength = confluence_bull > confluence_bear ? confluence_bull / 4 : -confluence_bear / 4
🔶 Intelligent Signal Generation
The system generates two tiers of reversal signals: strong signals that require multiple confirmations across both oscillators, and weak signals that identify early momentum shifts. This hierarchical approach allows traders to adjust position sizing based on signal strength.
🔶 Visual Confluence Zones
Background coloring dynamically adjusts based on confluence strength, creating visual zones that immediately communicate market sentiment. The intensity of background shading corresponds to the strength of the confluent signals, making pattern recognition effortless.
🔶 Threshold Visualization
Color-coded threshold zones provide instant visual feedback about oscillator positions relative to key levels. The fill areas between thresholds create clear overbought and oversold regions with graduated color intensity.
🔶 Candle Color Integration
Optional candle coloring applies confluence-based color logic directly to price bars, creating a unified visual framework that helps traders correlate indicator signals with actual price movements for enhanced decision-making.
🔶 Overflow Alert System
Specialized circular markers highlight extreme overflow conditions on both oscillators, drawing attention to potential climax moves that often precede significant reversals or accelerated trend continuation.
🔶 Customizable Display Options
Comprehensive display controls allow traders to toggle individual components on or off, enabling focused analysis on specific aspects of the indicator. This modularity ensures the indicator adapts to different trading styles and analytical preferences.

Tristan's Star: 15m Shooting Star DetectorThis script is designed to be used on the 1-minute chart , but it analyzes the market as if you were watching the 15-minute candles.
Every cluster of 15 one-minute candles is grouped together and treated as a single 15-minute candle.
When that 15-minute “synthetic” candle looks like a shooting star pattern (small body near the low, long upper wick, short lower wick, bearish bias), the script triggers a signal.
At the close of that 15-minute cluster, the script will:
Plot a single “Sell” label on the last 1-minute bar of the group.
Draw a horizontal line across the 15 bars at the high, showing the level that created the shooting star.
Optionally display a table cell in the corner with the word “SELL.”
This lets you stay on the 1-minute timeframe for precision entries and exits, while still being alerted when the higher-timeframe (15-minute) shows a bearish reversal pattern.
