EMA Multi CrossThis is just a very simple EMA indicator that shows the 20, 50, 100, and 200 Exponential Moving Averages and plots some shapes when the lines cross from the 20 & 50, the 50 & 200, and the 100 & 200.
I know there are many EMA indicators out there, but I couldn't find one that let me edit the colors, values, and toggle the crossings. Maybe some of you will find usefulness in having some of these extra options too.
I use this occasionally on the Bitcoin 1 hour charts to see how the long-term trend is going.
Here are some ways to read EMA lines:
Slope: A rising moving average generally reflects a rising trend, while a falling moving average points to a falling trend.
Crosses: Seeing when a slower moving average crosses over/under a faster moving average can be an indication of a trend. If a shorter moving average remains above the longer moving average after they cross, the uptrend is considered intact. The trend is seen as down when the shorter moving average is below the longer moving average.
I prefer the slope of the two since crosses can cause some false positives if you are relying on it for trades.

Fibonacci Extension / Retracement / Pivot Points by DGTFɪʙᴏɴᴀᴄᴄɪ Exᴛᴇɴᴛɪᴏɴ / Rᴇᴛʀᴀᴄᴍᴇɴᴛ / Pɪᴠᴏᴛ Pᴏɪɴᴛꜱ
This study combines various Fibonacci concepts into one, and some basic volume and volatility indications
█ Pɪᴠᴏᴛ Pᴏɪɴᴛꜱ — is a technical indicator that is used to determine the levels at which price may face support or resistance. The Pivot Points indicator consists of a pivot point (PP) level and several support (S) and resistance (R) levels. PP, resistance and support values are calculated in different ways, depending on the type of the indicator, this study implements Fibonacci Pivot Points
The indicator resolution is set by the input of the Pivot Points TF (Timeframe). If the Pivot Points TF is set to AUTO (the default value), then the increased resolution is determined by the following algorithm:
for intraday resolutions up to and including 5 min, 4HOURS (4H) is used
for intraday resolutions more than 5 min and up to and including 45 min, DAY (1D) is used
for intraday resolutions more than 45 min and up to and including 4 hour, WEEK (1W) is used
for daily resolutions MONTH is used (1M)
for weekly resolutions, 3-MONTH (3M) is used
for monthly resolutions, 12-MONTH (12M) is used
If the Pivot Points TF is set to User Defined, users may choose any higher timeframe of their preference
█ Fɪʙ Rᴇᴛʀᴀᴄᴇᴍᴇɴᴛ — Fibonacci retracements is a popular instrument used by technical analysts to determine support and resistance areas. In technical analysis, this tool is created by taking two extreme points (usually a peak and a trough) on the chart and dividing the vertical distance by the key Fibonacci coefficients equal to 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, and 100%. This study implements an automated method of identifying the pivot lows/highs and automatically draws horizontal lines that are used to determine possible support and resistance levels
█ Fɪʙᴏɴᴀᴄᴄɪ Exᴛᴇɴꜱɪᴏɴꜱ — Fibonacci extensions are a tool that traders can use to establish profit targets or estimate how far a price may travel AFTER a retracement/pullback is finished. Extension levels are also possible areas where the price may reverse. This study implements an automated method of identifying the pivot lows/highs and automatically draws horizontal lines that are used to determine possible support and resistance levels.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Fibonacci extensions option may require to do further adjustment of the study parameters for proper usage. Extensions are aimed to be used when a trend is present and they aim to measure how far a price may travel AFTER a retracement/pullback. I will strongly suggest users of this study to check the education post for further details, where to use extensions and where to use retracements
Important input options for both Fibonacci Extensions and Retracements
Deviation, is a multiplier that affects how much the price should deviate from the previous pivot in order for the bar to become a new pivot. Increasing its value is one way to get higher timeframe Fib Retracement Levels
Depth, affects the minimum number of bars that will be taken into account when building
█ Volume / Volatility Add-Ons
High Volatile Bar Indication
Volume Spike Bar Indication
Volume Weighted Colored Bars
This study benefits from build-in auto fib retracement tv study and modifications applied to get extentions and also to fit this combo

Overlay Indicators (EMAs, SMAs, Ichimoku & Bollinger Bands)This is a combination of popular overlay indicators that are used for dynamic support and resistance, trade targets and trend strength.
Included are:
-> 6 Exponential Moving Averages
-> 6 Simple Moving Averages
-> Ichimoku Cloud
-> Bollinger Bands
-> There is also a weekend background marker ideal for cryptocurrency trading
Using all these indicators in conjunction with each other provide great confluence and confidence in trades and price targets.
An explanation of each indicator is listed below.
What Is an Exponential Moving Average (EMA)?
"An exponential moving average (EMA) is a type of moving average (MA) that places a greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. The exponential moving average is also referred to as the exponentially weighted moving average. An exponentially weighted moving average reacts more significantly to recent price changes than a simple moving average (SMA), which applies an equal weight to all observations in the period.
What Does the Exponential Moving Average Tell You?
The 12- and 26-day exponential moving averages (EMAs) are often the most quoted and analyzed short-term averages. The 12- and 26-day are used to create indicators like the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) and the percentage price oscillator (PPO). In general, the 50- and 200-day EMAs are used as indicators for long-term trends. When a stock price crosses its 200-day moving average, it is a technical signal that a reversal has occurred.
Traders who employ technical analysis find moving averages very useful and insightful when applied correctly. However, they also realize that these signals can create havoc when used improperly or misinterpreted. All the moving averages commonly used in technical analysis are, by their very nature, lagging indicators."

Popular EMA lookback periods include fibonacci numbers and round numbers such as the 100 or 200. The default values of the EMAs in this indicator are the most widely used, specifically for cryptocurrency but they also work very well with traditional.
EMAs are normally used in conjunction with Simple Moving Averages.
" What Is Simple Moving Average (SMA)?
A simple moving average (SMA) calculates the average of a selected range of prices, usually closing prices, by the number of periods in that range.
Simple Moving Average vs. Exponential Moving Average
The major difference between an exponential moving average (EMA) and a simple moving average is the sensitivity each one shows to changes in the data used in its calculation. More specifically, the EMA gives a higher weighting to recent prices, while the SMA assigns an equal weighting to all values."
Source: www.investopedia.com
In this indicator, I've included 6 popular moving averages that are commonly used. Most traders will find specific settings for their own personal trading style.
Along with the EMA and SMA, another indicator that is good for finding confluence between these two is the Ichimoku Cloud.
" What is the Ichimoku Cloud?
The Ichimoku Cloud is a collection of technical indicators that show support and resistance levels, as well as momentum and trend direction. It does this by taking multiple averages and plotting them on the chart. It also uses these figures to compute a "cloud" which attempts to forecast where the price may find support or resistance in the future.
The Ichimoku cloud was developed by Goichi Hosoda, a Japanese journalist, and published in the late 1960s.1 It provides more data points than the standard candlestick chart. While it seems complicated at first glance, those familiar with how to read the charts often find it easy to understand with well-defined trading signals."
More info can be seen here: www.investopedia.com
I have changed the default settings on the Ichimoku to suit cryptocurrency trading (as cryptocurrency is usually fast and thus require slightly longer lookbacks) to 20 60 120 30.
Along with the Ichimoku, I like to use Bollinger Bands to not only find confluence for support and resistance but for price discovery targets and trend strength.
" What Is a Bollinger Band®?
A Bollinger Band® is a technical analysis tool defined by a set of trendlines plotted two standard deviations (positively and negatively) away from a simple moving average (SMA) of a security's price, but which can be adjusted to user preferences.
Bollinger Bands® were developed and copyrighted by famous technical trader John Bollinger, designed to discover opportunities that give investors a higher probability of properly identifying when an asset is oversold or overbought."
This article goes into great detail of the complexities of using the Bollinger band and how to use it.

This indicator combines all these powerful indicators into one so that it is easier to input different settings, turn specific tools on or off and can be easily customised.
Fisher Transform with SignalsFisher Transform with Signals
The Fisher Transform is a technical indicator created by John F. Ehlers that converts prices into a Gaussian normal distribution.1 The indicator highlights when prices have moved to an extreme, based on recent prices. This may help in spotting turning points in the price of an asset. It also helps show the trend and isolate the price waves within a trend.
-The Fisher Transform is a technical indicator that normalizes asset prices, thus making turning points in price clearer.
-Some traders look for extreme readings to signal potential price reversal areas, while others watch for a change in direction of the Fisher Transform.
-The Fisher Transform formula is typically applied to price, but it can also be applied to other indicators.
-Asset prices are not normally distributed, so attempts to normalize prices via an indicator may not always provide reliable signals.
The Fisher Transform enables traders to create a Gaussian normal distribution, which converts data that isn't typically normal distributed, such as market prices. In essence, the transformation makes peak swings relatively rare events to help better identify price reversals on a chart.
This technical indicator is commonly used by traders looking for leading signals, rather than lagging indicators. The Fisher Transform can also be applied to other technical indicators, such as the relative strength index (RSI) or moving average convergence divergence (MACD).
How to Calculate the Fisher Transform
1.Choose a lookback period, such as nine periods. This is how many periods the Fisher Transform is applied to.
2.Convert the prices of these periods to values between -1 and +1 and input for X, completing the calculations within the formula's brackets.
3.Multiply by the natural log.
4.Multiply the result by 0.5.
5.Repeat the calculation as each near period ends, converting the most recent price to a value between -1 and +1 based on the most recent nine-period prices.
6.Calculated values are added/subtracted from the prior calculated value.
How can this script tell us to buy or sell?
- If the fisher is bigger then trigger background will be colored blue and this means you can buy
- If the trigger is bigger then fisher this means you can sell
CT Moving Average Crossover IndicatorMoving Average Crossover Indicator
Here I present a moving average indicator with 9 user definable moving averages from which up to 5 pairs can be selected to show what prices would need to be closed at on the current bar to cross each individual pair.
I have put much emphasis here on simplicity of setting the parameters of the moving averages, selecting the crossover pairs and on the clarity of the displayed information in the optional “Moving Average Crossover Level” Information Box.
What Is a Moving Average (MA)?
According to Investopedia - “In statistics, a moving average is a calculation used to analyze data points by creating a series of averages of different subsets of the full data set.
In finance, a moving average (MA) is a stock indicator that is commonly used in technical analysis. The reason for calculating the moving average of a stock is to help smooth out the price data by creating a constantly updated average price.
By calculating the moving average, the impacts of random, short-term fluctuations on the price of a stock over a specified time-frame are mitigated.”
The user can set the color, type (SMA/EMA) and length of each of the 9 moving averages.
Then the user may choose 5 pairs of moving averages from the set of 9.
The script will then calculate the price needed to be crossed by the close of the current bar in order to crossover each of the user defined pairs and outputs the results as optional lineplots and/or an Infobox which shows the relevant information in a very clear way.
The user may switch the moving averages, crossover lineplots and infobox on and off easily with one click boxes in the settings menu.
The number of decimal places shown in the Infobox can be altered in the settings menu.
If the price required to cross a pair of moving averages is zero or less, the crossover level will display “Impossible” and the plots will plot at zero. (this helps ameliorate chart auto-focus issues)
Quoting a variety of online resources …….
Understanding Moving Averages (MA)
Moving averages are a simple, technical analysis tool. Moving averages are usually calculated to identify the trend direction of a stock or to determine its support and resistance levels. It is a trend-following—or lagging—indicator because it is based on past prices.
The longer the time period for the moving average, the greater the lag. So, a 200-day moving average will have a much greater degree of lag than a 20-day MA because it contains prices for the past 200 days. The 50-day and 200-day moving average figures for stocks are widely followed by investors and traders and are considered to be important trading signals.
Moving averages are a totally customizable indicator, which means that an investor can freely choose whatever time frame they want when calculating an average. The most common time periods used in moving averages are 15, 20, 30, 50, 100, and 200 days. The shorter the time span used to create the average, the more sensitive it will be to price changes. The longer the time span, the less sensitive the average will be.
Investors may choose different time periods of varying lengths to calculate moving averages based on their trading objectives. Shorter moving averages are typically used for short-term trading, while longer-term moving averages are more suited for long-term investors.
There is no correct time frame to use when setting up your moving averages. The best way to figure out which one works best for you is to experiment with a number of different time periods until you find one that fits your strategy.
Predicting trends in the stock market is no simple process. While it is impossible to predict the future movement of a specific stock, using technical analysis and research can help you make better predictions.
A rising moving average indicates that the security is in an uptrend, while a declining moving average indicates that it is in a downtrend. Similarly, upward momentum is confirmed with a bullish crossover, which occurs when a short-term moving average crosses above a longer-term moving average. Conversely, downward momentum is confirmed with a bearish crossover, which occurs when a short-term moving average crosses below a longer-term moving average.
Types of Moving Averages
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
The simplest form of a moving average, known as a simple moving average (SMA), is calculated by taking the arithmetic mean of a given set of values. In other words, a set of numbers–or prices in the case of financial instruments–are added together and then divided by the number of prices in the set.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
The exponential moving average is a type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices in an attempt to make it more responsive to new information.
To calculate an EMA, you must first compute the simple moving average (SMA) over a particular time period. Next, you must calculate the multiplier for weighting the EMA (referred to as the "smoothing factor"), which typically follows the formula: 2/(selected time period + 1). So, for a 20-day moving average, the multiplier would be 2/(20+1)= 0.0952. Then you use the smoothing factor combined with the previous EMA to arrive at the current value.
The EMA thus gives a higher weighting to recent prices, while the SMA assigns equal weighting to all values.
CT Reverse True Strength Indicator On ChartIntroducing the Caretakers “On Chart” Reverse True Strength Index.
According to Wikipedia….
“The True Strength Index (TSI) is a technical indicator used in the analysis of financial markets that attempts to show both trend direction and overbought/oversold conditions. It was first published William Blau in 1991.
The indicator uses moving averages of the underlying momentum of a financial instrument.
Momentum is considered a leading indicator of price movements, and a moving average characteristically lags behind price.
The TSI combines these characteristics to create an indication of price and direction more in sync with market turns than either momentum or moving average.”
The TSI has a normal range of values between +100 and -100.
Traditionally traders and analysts will consider:
Positives values above 25 to indicate an “overbought” condition
Negative values below -25 to indicate an “oversold” condition
I have reverse engineered the True Strength Index formula to derive 2 new functions.
1) The reverse TSI function is dual purpose which can be used to calculate….
The chart price at which the TSI will reach a particular TSI scale value.
The chart price at which the TSI will equal its previous value.
2) The reverse TSI signal cross function can be used to calculate the chart price at which the TSI will cross its signal line.
I have employed these functions here to return the price levels where the True Strength Index would equal :
Upper alert level ( default 25 )
Zero-Line
Lower alert level ( default -25 )
Previous TSI (eq) value
TSI signal line
In this “On Chart” version of the reverse True Strength Index the crossover levels are displayed both as lines on the chart and via an optional info-box with choice of user selected info.

How to interpret the displayed prices returned from the TSI scale zero line and upper and lower alert levels.
Closing exactly at the given price will cause the True Strength Index value to equal the scale value.
Closing above the given price will cause the True Strength Index to cross above the scale value.
Closing below the given price will cause the True Strength Index to cross below the scale value.
How to interpret the displayed price returned from the TSI (eq)
Closing exactly at the price will cause the True Strength Index value to equal the previous TSI value.
Closing above the price will cause the True Strength Index value to increase.
Closing below the price will cause the True Strength Index value to decrease.
How to interpret the displayed price returned from the TSI signal line crossover.
Closing exactly at the given price will cause the True Strength Index value to equal the signal line.
Closing above the given price will cause the True Strength Index to cross above the signal line.
Closing below the given price will cause the True Strength Index to cross below the signal line.
Common methods to derive signals from the TSI :
Zero-line crossovers
When the CMO crosses above the zero-line, a buy signal is generated.
When the CMO crosses below the zero-line, a sell signal is generated.
“Overbought” and “Oversold” crossovers
When the SMI crosses below -25 and then moves back above it, a buy signal is generated.
When the SMI crosses above +25 and then moves back below it, a sell signal is generated.
What Does the True Strength Index (TSI) Tell You?
The indicator is primarily used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in an asset's price, spot divergence, identify trend direction and changes via the zero-line, and highlight short-term price momentum with signal line crossovers.
Since the TSI is based on price movements, oversold and overbought levels will vary by the asset being traded. Some stocks may reach +30 and -30 before tending to see price reversals, while another stock may reverse near +20 and -20.
Mark extreme TSI levels, on the asset being traded, to see where overbought and oversold is. Being oversold doesn't necessarily mean it is time to buy, and when an asset is overbought it doesn't necessarily mean it is time to sell. Traders will typically watch for other signals to trigger a trade decision. For example, they may wait for the price or TSI to start dropping before selling in overbought territory. Alternatively, they may wait for a signal line crossover.
Signal Line Crossovers
The true strength index has a signal line, which is usually a seven- to 13-period EMA of the TSI line. A signal line crossover occurs when the TSI line crosses the signal line. When the TSI crosses above the signal line from below, that may warrant a long position. When the TSI crosses below the signal line from above, that may warrant selling or short selling.
Signal line crossovers occur frequently, so should be utilized only in conjunction with other signals from the TSI. For example, buy signals may be favoured when the TSI is above the zero-line. Or sell signals may be favoured when the TSI is in overbought territory.
Zero-line Crossovers
The zero-line crossover is another signal the TSI generates. Price momentum is positive when the indicator is above zero and negative when it is below zero. Some traders use the zero-line for a directional bias. For example, a trader may decide only to enter a long position if the indicator is above its zero-line. Conversely, the trader would be bearish and only consider short positions if the indicator's value is below zero.
Breakouts and Divergence
Traders can use support and resistance levels created by the true strength index to identify breakouts and price momentum shifts. For instance, if the indicator breaks below a trendline, the price may see continued selling.
Divergence is another tool the TSI provides. If the price of an asset is moving higher, while the TSI is dropping, that is called bearish divergence and could result in a downside price move. If the TSI is rising while the price is falling, that could signal higher prices to come. This is called bullish divergence.
Divergence is a poor timing signal, so it should only be used in conjunction with other signals generated by the TSI or other technical indicators.
The Difference Between the True Strength Index (TSI) and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) Indicator.
The TSI is smoothing price changes to create a technical oscillator. The moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator is measuring the separation between two moving averages. Both indicators are used in similar ways for trading purposes, yet they are not calculated the same and will provide different signals at different times.
The Limitations of Using the True Strength Index (TSI)
Many of the signals provided by the TSI will be false signals. That means the price action will be different than expected following a trade signal. For example, during an uptrend, the TSI may cross below the zero-line several times, but then the price proceeds higher even though the TSI indicates momentum has shifted down.
Signal line crossovers also occur so frequently that they may not provide a lot of trading benefit. Such signals need to be heavily filtered based on other elements of the indicator or through other forms of analysis. The TSI will also sometimes change direction without price changing direction, resulting in trade signals that look good on the TSI but continue to lose money based on price.
Divergence also tends to unreliable on the indicator. Divergence can last so long that it provides little insight into when a reversal will actually occur. Also, divergence isn't always present when price reversals actually do occur.
The TSI should only be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis, such as price action analysis and other technical indicators.

Uber Stochastic Index v2 + HistogramRealized how useful a histogram could be for a Stochastic, so I added it to my Uber Stochastic. It actually has two histograms - one on the primary stochastic, and one on a stochastic of the stochastic. So you can histogram while you histogram and stoch while you stoch.
The second stoch is actually really useful sometimes as a early warning but can get ugly on some settings. The histograms are also quite fast on fast settings.
What separates the Uber from the standard stoch? Well, you get 7 K stochastics, technically, to weigh together into one. Looks like one, but I assure you its 7 complete stochastics. You can have a long term stochastic with short term influence or a short term with long term influence, or have one thats all-encompassing.
Why histograms? Stochastic is already read similar to MACD, with crossover signals derived from two lines reflected in one another, one slower then the other. It just makes sense. This way, with a slower running histogram, you can more readily "see" it close in. After all, the best trades are rarely made when the stochastic crosses, but rather as it approaches crossing.
I included a lot of settings for max tweaking. The histograms seem to shift in size considerably depending how you have it set, hence the resolution settings for each. I actually recommend setting the 2nd histogram to inverted resolution, that way you can see them more clearly, but you will also see them on both sides of 0.
And yes, I offset the stochastic so the histogram would look right.
"Wealth beyond measure, Outlander" -Unknown Dunmer
MJ ECT== One Line Introduction ==
ECT is a multi-level, trend focused technical indicator based on a three-step hierarchical approach - comprising the tide, wave, and ripple - to trend identification.
== Indicator Philosophy ==
The author believes that market trends can be understood in a three-step hierarchy, with tide at the top, wave in the middle, and ripple at the bottom, corresponding to long-, middle-, and short-term momentum in the stock price. This indicator therefore comprises three technical indicators which aims to reflect the abovementioned features of a trend. These three components are True Strength Index (TSI), Exponential Moving Averages ( EMA ), and Commodity Channel Index ( CCI ).
== Indicator Components and Breakdown ==
True Strength Index (TSI) -> Tide
A 20-period TSI is used to visualize the bullish or bearish sentiment surrounding the stock. Crossovers above the zero line are interpreted as bullish while crossovers below the zero line are interpreted as bearish . This is painted into the background where green represents bullish and red represents bearish . While the background is red ( bearish ), no bullish positions should be taken. Hence, the TSI painted background acts as a directional bias filter and going against the bias is not recommended. After understanding the directional bias, the user can delve further into the areas of value for the stock in the Wave.
Exponential Moving Averages ( EMA ) -> Wave
Four EMA are used (20, 50, 100, 200) to identify the dynamic support and resistance waves in a trending market. Stock price pullbacks into any of these EMA represent areas of value where the user can consider taking positions. The correct EMA to use depends on individual stock's behavior, with multiple bounces on a specified EMA being the priority. After understanding which wave best reflects the area of value of a stock, the user can move on to the Ripple to time their entries.
Commodity Channel Index ( CCI ) -> Ripple
A 5-period CCI is used to identify short-term oversold conditions where prices are on discount. Discount is defined by the 5-period CCI crossing below -100 as it reflects a weekly oversold condition. The indicator will display a small triangle below the candle when this condition is met.
== Ready To Deploy Field Manual ==
When background is painted red, do nothing.
When background is painted green, begin thinking of bullish opportunities.
Look for the specific EMA that has the most bounces of stock price in recent months, this is the area of value to look for buying opportunity.
For the candles that intersect the EMA you identified above, watch for the appearance of a small triangle below the candle that tells you the entry timing.
When the entry timing signal triangle appears, remember the High of that candle and buy your position when the subsequent candle breaks above this High.
If the High is not broken above in the next immediate candle, remember the newer High of the newer candle (basically follow / trail the latest High until a break above is hit).
If the background turns from green to red, stop following the High and do not enter because the market sentiment has changed to bearish .
If you are holding an existing position and the background turns red, consider exiting the position. You may consider remembering the Low of the candle and exit your position if this Low is broken below on a subsequent candle.

The author wishes the best success for all users of this technical indicator.
RSI-Last-3-ExtremaThis script indicates when the current Relative Strength Index of the last 8 closes is beyond a level from center oscillation which signals the equity is likely to reverse course. When it is the lowest RSI reading of the prior 3 readings and below 25, a green vertical bar will appear signaling a potential BUY point. Likewise, the highest reading of the prior 3 RSI readings and above 75 will signal a vertical red bar or SELL signal. The bar has to have a final close price for the signal to be active. Reversal could take a few more bars to occur depending on the timeframe and equity symbol.
You will be able to find many charts that have this signal perfectly finding the top or bottom of a significant trend.
It successfully indicates profitable reversal around 80% of the time. So far, It is 85% accurate or better in determining downtrend start points on the Daily, 120, 60, 30 Minute charts according to the study of more than 10,000 occurrences. It is 86% accurate on the 30 Minute chart.
This is another tool I use in finding or confirming potential price action. Hope you find it useful.
To add this, favorite the script by clicking "Add to your Favorite Indicators" at the top of the code portion below. On your top tool bar is an "fx" button with a downward arrow to the right of it. Click on the downward arrow/caret and scroll down to "RSI-Last-3-Extrema". Click on this title and it should add to the bottom of your current chart. If you do not see BUY (green vertical bars) or SELL (red vertical bars) right away, try other charts and timeframes.
Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGTSᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ , is undoubtedly one of the key concepts of technical analysis
█ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ Dᴇꜰɪɴɪᴛɪᴏɴ
Support and Resistance terms are used by traders to refer to price levels on charts that tend to act as barriers, preventing the price of an financial instrument from getting pushed in a certain direction.
A support level is a price level where buyers are more aggressive than sellers. This means that the price is more likely to "bounce" off this level rather than break through it. However, once the price has breached this level it is likely to continue falling until meeting another support level.
A resistance level is the opposite of a support level. It is where the price tends to find resistance as it rises. Again, this means that the price is more likely to "bounce" off this level rather than break through it. However, once the price has breached this level it is likely to continue rising until meeting another resistance level.
A previous support level will sometimes become a resistance level when the price attempts to move back up, and conversely, a resistance level will become a support level as the price temporarily falls back.
█ Iᴅᴇɴᴛɪꜰʏɪɴɢ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ
Support and resistance can come in various forms, and the concept is more difficult to master than it first appears. Identification of key support and resistance levels is an essential ingredient to successful technical analysis.
If the price stalls and reverses in the same price area on minimum of two different occasions, then a horizontal line is drawn to show that the market is struggling to move past that area. Those areas are static barriers, one of the most popular forms of support/resistance and are highlighted with horizontal lines.
Repeated test , the more often a support/resistance level is "tested" over an extended period of time (touched and bounced off by price), the more significance is given to that specific level
High volume , the more buying and selling that has occurred at a particular price level, the stronger the support or resistance level is likely to be
Market psychology , plays a major role as traders and investors remember the past and react to changing conditions to anticipate future market movement.
Psychological levels , is a price level that significantly affects the price of an underlying financial instrument. Typically, near round numbers often serve as support and resistance
The following support and resistance related topics are beyond the scope of this study, so they will be mentioned roughly only as a reference for support and resistance concept
Trendlines , Support and resistance levels in trends are dynamic. Throughout an uptrend, levels of support tend to look like a trendline, usually clustering around higher lows. As the price rises, the price where buyers consider the stock to be “too cheap” also changes, which creates new support levels on the way up. The same is also true for resistance levels. In an uptrend, a stock is continuously breaking through perceived resistance levels and making new highs
Moving Averages , is a constantly changing line that smooths out past price data while also allowing the trader to identify support and resistance. In the example Notice how the price of the asset finds support at the moving average when the trend is up, and how it acts as resistance when the trend is down
The Fibonacci Retracement/Extension tool , is a favorite among many short-term traders because it clearly identifies levels of potential support and resistance
Pivot Point Calculations , is another common technical analysis technique, where pivot point is calculated based on the high, low, and closing prices of previous trading session/day and support & resistance levels are projected based on the pivot point, different calculation techniques are available, as presented in this example of an pivot point indicator : PVTvX by DGT
█ Tʀᴀᴅɪɴɢ Bᴀꜱᴇᴅ ᴏɴ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ
Once an area or "zone" of support or resistance has been identified, those price levels can serve as potential entry or exit points because, as a price reaches a point of support or resistance, it will do one of two things—bounce back away from the support or resistance level (trading ranges), or violate the price level and continue in its direction (trading breakouts) —until it hits the next support or resistance level
The basic trading method for using support and resistance is to buy near support in uptrends or the parts of ranges or chart patterns where prices are moving up and to sell/sell short near resistance in downtrends or the parts of ranges and chart patterns where prices are moving down. Buying near support or selling near resistance can pay off, but there is no assurance that the support or resistance will hold. Therefore, consider waiting for some confirmation that the market is still respecting that area
Trading breakouts, a breakout is a potential trading opportunity that occurs when an asset's price moves above a resistance level or moves below a support level on increasing volume. The first step in trading breakouts is to identify current price trend patterns along with support and resistance levels in order to plan possible entry and exit points. Once the asset trades beyond the price barrier, volatility tends to increase and prices usually trend in the breakout's direction. Breakouts are such an important trading strategy since these setups are the starting point for future volatility increases, large price swings and, in many circumstances, major price trends. When trading breakouts, it is important to consider the underlying asset's support and resistance levels. The more times an asset price has touched these areas, the more valid these levels are and the more important they become. At the same time, the longer these support and resistance levels have been in play, the better the outcome when the asset price finally breaks out. Asset prices will often move slightly further than we expect them to. This doesn't happen all the time, but when it does it is called a false breakout. Therefore it is important to consider waiting for some confirmation while trading breakouts. It’s also popular for traders to sell 50% of their positions at the resistance level, and hold the rest in anticipation of a breakout above resistance
█ Pʀɪᴄᴇ Aᴄᴛɪᴏɴ - Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ & Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ ʙʏ DGT Sᴛᴜᴅʏ
This experimental study attempts to identify the support and resistance levels. Assumes a simple logic to discover moments where the price is rising or falling consecutively for minimum 3 bars with the condition volume increases on each bar and the last bar’s volume should be bigger than the long term volume moving average. A line will be drawn at the end of the move (highest or lowest, depending on the move direction), the line will be drawn at minimum on the 3rd bar and if condition holds for other consecutive bars the line will switch to 4th, 5th etc bar.
Lines will not be deleted so the historical ones will remain and will emphasis the levels significance when they overlap in feature. Strong levels are more likely to hold and cause the price to move in the other direction, whereas the minor levels may only cause the price to pause and keep moving in the same direction. Determining future levels of support and resistance can drastically improve the returns of a short-term investing strategy
Bar colors will be painted based on the volume of the specific bar to its long term volume moving average. This will help identifying the support and resistance levels significance and emphasis the sings of breakouts
Finally, Volume spikes will be marked on top of the price chart. A high volume usually indicates more interest in the security and the presence of institutional traders. However, a rapidly rising price in an uptrend accompanied by a huge volume may be a sign of exhaustion. Traders usually look for breaks of support and resistance to enter positions. When security break critical levels without volume , you should consider the breakout suspect and prime for a reversal off the highs/lows. Volume spikes are often the result of news-driven events. Volume spike will often lead to sharp reversals since the moves are unsustainable due to the imbalance of supply and demand
A good example with many support and resistance concepts observed on a stock chart and detected by the study
Settings:
Length of volume moving average, where volume moving average is used to detect support and resistance levels, is used as reference to compare with threshold values for volume spikes and colors of the bars

Machine Learning: Logistic RegressionMulti-timeframe Strategy based on Logistic Regression algorithm
Description:
This strategy uses a classic machine learning algorithm that came from statistics - Logistic Regression (LR).
The first and most important thing about logistic regression is that it is not a 'Regression' but a 'Classification' algorithm. The name itself is somewhat misleading. Regression gives a continuous numeric output but most of the time we need the output in classes (i.e. categorical, discrete). For example, we want to classify emails into “spam” or 'not spam', classify treatment into “success” or 'failure', classify statement into “right” or 'wrong', classify election data into 'fraudulent vote' or 'non-fraudulent vote', classify market move into 'long' or 'short' and so on. These are the examples of logistic regression having a binary output (also called dichotomous).
You can also think of logistic regression as a special case of linear regression when the outcome variable is categorical, where we are using log of odds as dependent variable. In simple words, it predicts the probability of occurrence of an event by fitting data to a logit function.
Basically, the theory behind Logistic Regression is very similar to the one from Linear Regression, where we seek to draw a best-fitting line over data points, but in Logistic Regression, we don’t directly fit a straight line to our data like in linear regression. Instead, we fit a S shaped curve, called Sigmoid, to our observations, that best SEPARATES data points. Technically speaking, the main goal of building the model is to find the parameters (weights) using gradient descent.
In this script the LR algorithm is retrained on each new bar trying to classify it into one of the two categories. This is done via the logistic_regression function by updating the weights w in the loop that continues for iterations number of times. In the end the weights are passed through the sigmoid function, yielding a prediction.
Mind that some assets require to modify the script's input parameters. For instance, when used with BTCUSD and USDJPY, the 'Normalization Lookback' parameter should be set down to 4 (2,...,5..), and optionally the 'Use Price Data for Signal Generation?' parameter should be checked. The defaults were tested with EURUSD.

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Swiss Army KnifeLevel: 2
Background
John F. Ehlers introuced swiss army knife (SAK)indicator in 2005.
Function
The swiss army knife (SAK)indicator does all the common functions of the usual indicators, such as smoothing and momentum generation. It also does some unusual things, such as band stop and band reject filtering. Once you program this indicator into your trading platform you can do virtually any technical analysis technique with it. This unique general indicator results from general Digital Signal Processing (DSP) concepts for discrete signal networks that appear in various forms in technical analysis .
The description of this indicator involves Z Transforms. Z Transforms are a convenient way of solving difficult difference equations in much the same way as LaPlace Transforms are used to solve differential equations in calculus. Difference equations arise from the use of sampled data, such as we have in technical analysis . That is, daily bars sample price data once a day. Intraday bars sample price data every minute, hour, or whatever. The concept is the same regardless of the sampling rate. In Z Transforms, Z^(-1) stands for one sample period of delay. For simplicity, I will always refer to daily bars as the sample rate.
It includes,
1. Exponential Moving Average ( EMA )
2. Simple Moving Average ( SMA )
3. Two Pole Gaussian Filter
4. Two Pole Butterworth Filter
5. High Pass Filter
6. Two Pole High Pass Filter
7. BandPass Filter
8.BandStop Filter
The Swiss Army Knife Indicator is a versatile approach that creates a wide variety of responses that range from smoothers to oscillators. Novel BandPass and BandStop filters can also be produced. All of this can be done with one line of code in most platforms. The various responses come from the coefficients that can be called – as functions if you prefer.

[blackcat] L1 Whale Jumping out of the OceanLevel: 1
Background
One of the biggest differences between cryptocurrency and traditional financial markets is that cryptocurrency is based on blockchain technology. Individual investors can discover the direction of the flow of large funds through on-chain transfers. These large funds are often referred to as Whale. Whale can have a significant impact on the price movements of cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin . Therefore, how to monitor Whale trends is of great significance both in terms of fundamentals and technical aspects.
We often see whales suddenly jump out of the ocean and then set off huge waves. What we need to do is to surf the wave according to the trend after the whale jumps out of the sea. This is really an exciting sport!
Function
By modeling the behavior of Whale and individuals (Surfers), L1 Whale Jumping out of the Ocean can not only simply describe the behavior trends of Whale and individuals, but also describe the shape of waves generated by the whale jump. Individual traders need to follow the wave trend to take profit.
NOTE: white line and yellow candles represent whale appears but it CANNOT indicate the direction as PUMP or DUMP. This indicator is one of the whale series. It is featured by vividness. A technical indicator is drawn as ocean (momentum in blue and aqua), whale (whale PUMP/DUMP in white,yellow, red, fuchsia and green), huge wave (mid-term trend or swing trend in aqua and blue).However, it does not accurately generate buying and selling points.
Key Signal
var01 --> huge wave caused by whale jump. it is used to confirm whale jump and describe the trend of wave for surfers.
var02 --> whale move signal
var12 --> whale move signal
var28 --> high confidence level of huge whale move
dynabot --> deep ocean (dynamic bottom)
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. Detect Whale pump and dump and the strength of huge wave.
2. Vividly compare the market movement to a huge wave caused by a whale jumping out of the sea.
3. When it resonante with buy or sell signal from other independent indicators, it has higher confidence level.
Cons:
1. No exact long and short entries.
2. It is sensitive and may have noise inside and generate fake entry signal.
Remarks
Please do not think that this is just a technical indicator, this is a documentary about whales.

Voss Predictor (A Peek Into the Future) - Dr. John EhlersI have been sitting on this for over a year, but I now present this "Voss Predictive Filter" multicator employing PSv4.0 upon initial release, originally formulated by the great and empowering Dr. John Ehlers for TASC - August 2019 Traders Tips. This is a slightly modified version of the original indicator John Ehlers designed. My improved implementation is an all-in-one combination of three indicators, consisting of Ehlers' 2-pole bandpass filter, fed into the Voss predictor, and my Correlation Color. I also purposefully attempted to make this indicator work on both "Light" and "Dark" charts equally well.
You can search for this indicator's white paper, entitled "A PEEK INTO THE FUTURE By John Ehlers", on his site in the educational reference section. It's VERY important that you fully grasp how this indicator works and when it doesn't during trending price movements. According to "TV House Rules", I can't link directly to his white paper on his web site. Technically he's a vendor, even though it has been divulged to me, that he is intending to retire after his last and final wØℾk$#Øp, where he is publicly disseminating the bulk of his unpublished proprietary code that drives his other website VERY SOON.
I love John Ehlers in a respectfully appreciative manner and he is my hero in life! I simply don't revel about pretended celebrities and supposed rock stars. I will never be able to adequately explain to you how much he has influenced me AND this website as it currently exists AND what is in store for the future of the ever evolving "Power of Pine". His inspiring legacy of code poetry shall forever be immortally enshrined here on TV and influence it.
Back to the topic of interest, this script originating from John Ehlers' mind... This indicator helps to anticipate cyclic turning points via negative group delay. It is NOT a predictive crystal ball. Do not become cluelessly disillusioned by it's title. I need to explain.
For example, this indicator could not have anticipated that the bold faced lie of "15 Days to Slow the Spread" of the CHImeravirus "plandemic" in the USA, would turn into our factual reality of multi state mandated orders demanding months of unconstitutional prison cell styled lockdowns with closures and the absurd criminalization of not wearing a mouth mask made from underwear while not being evidently ill, additionally combined with 24/7 black magick mass hypnosis spoon feeding non-scientific fear based psychological propaganda from the world's "finest" epidemiological data analysts and misleaders, eventually decimating the world's markets into zombie economies with abhorrent results of long term massive unemployment and financial hardship on a chart scale never before witnessed. Yep, it's NOT capable of predetermining any of that. I just wanted to make that very clear by example in a metaphorical manner many people can relate to concerning Voss' ability to anticipate.
The indicator consists of a bandpass filter coupled to the Voss predictor. Also, one thing about the Voss predictor, it can catch minute turning points or even false ones as explained in the white paper. So... I included my Correlation Color as a fitting companion to aid you in filtering out false signals during trending price movements. The Voss Predictive Filter should never be used alone, be forewarned!
Features List Includes:
Dark Background - Easily disabled in indicator Settings->Style for "Light" charts or with Pine commenting
AND a few more... Why list them, when you have the source code to explore!
When available time provides itself, I will consider your inquiries, thoughts, and concepts presented below in the comments section, should you 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. Have a profitable future everyone!
Neglected Volume by DGTVolume is one piece of information that is often neglected, however, learning to interpret volume brings many advantages and could be of tremendous help when it comes to analyzing the markets. In addition to technicians, fundamental investors also take notice of the numbers of shares traded for a given security.
What is Volume?
The volume represents all the recorded trades for a security that occurs in a given time interval. It is a measurement of the participation, enthusiasm, and interest in a given security. Think of volume as the force that drives the market. Volume substantiates, energizes, and empowers price. When volume increases, it confirms price direction; when volume decreases, it contradicts price direction.
In theory, increases in volume generally precede significant price movements. However, If the price is rising in an uptrend but the volume is reducing or unchanged, it may show that there’s little interest in the security, and the price may reverse.
A high volume usually indicates more interest in the security and the presence of institutional traders. However, a rapidly rising price in an uptrend accompanied by a huge volume may be a sign of exhaustion.
Traders usually look for breaks of support and resistance to enter positions. When security break critical levels without volume, you should consider the breakout suspect and prime for a reversal off the highs/lows
Volume spikes are often the result of news-driven events. Volume spike will often lead to sharp reversals since the moves are unsustainable due to the imbalance of supply and demand
note : there’s no centralized exchange where trades are recorded, so the volume data represents what happens at a particular exchange only
In most charting platforms, the volume indicator is presented as color-coded bars, green if the security closes up and red if the security closed lower, where the height of the bars show the amount of the recorded trades
Within this study, Relative Volume , Volume Weighted Bars and Volume Moving Average are presented, where Relative Volume relates current trading volume to past trading volume over long period, Volume Weighted Bars presents price bars colored based on short period past trading volume average, and Volume Moving Average is average of volume over shot period
Relative Volume is presented as color-coded bars similar to regular Volume indicator but uses four color codes instead two. Notable increases of volume are presented in green and red while average values with back and gray, hence adding ability to emphasis notable increases in the volume. It is kind of a like a radar for how "in-play" a security is. Users are allowed to change the threshold, default value is set to Fibonacci golden ration standard deviation away from its moving average.
Volume Weighted Bars, a study of Kıvanç Özbilgiç, aims to present if price movements are supported by Volume. Volume Weighted Bars are calculated based on shot period volume moving average which will reflect more recent changes in volume. Price actions with high volume will be displayed with darker colors, average volume values will remain as they are and low volume values will be indicated with lighter colors.
Volume Moving Average, Is short period volume moving average, aims to display visually the volume changes. Please not that Relative Volume bars are calculated based on standard deviation of long volume moving average.
What Else?
Apart from the volume itself, your ability to assess what volume is telling you in conjunction with price action can be a key factor in your ability to turn a profit in the market. It makes little sense to analyze the volume alone. To correctly interpret the volume data, it shall be seen in the light of what the price is doing. there are a lot of other indicators that are based on the volume data as well as price action. Analysing those volume indicators has always helped traders and investors to better understand what is happening in the market.
Here are the ones adapted with this study. Some of them used as a source for our aim, some adapted as they are with slight changes to fit visually to this study and please note that the numerical presentation may differ from their regular use
• On Balance Volume
• Divergence Indicator
• Correlation Coefficient
• Chaikin Money Flow
Shortly;
On Balance Volume
The On Balance Volume indicator, is a technical analysis indicator that relates volume flow to changes in a security’s price. It uses a cumulative total of positive and negative trading volume to predict the direction of price. The OBV is a volume-based momentum oscillator, so it is a leading indicator — it changes direction before the price
Granville, creator of OBV, proposed the theory that changes in volume precede price movements in a measurable way. He believed that volume was the main force behind major market moves and thought of OBV’s prediction of price changes as a compressed spring that expands rapidly when released.
It is believed that the OBV shows the interactions between the institutional and retail traders in the market
If the price makes a new high, the OBV should also make a new high. If the OBV makes a lower high when the price makes a higher high, there’s a classical bearish divergence — indicating that only the retail traders are buying. Another type of bearish divergence occurs when the price remains relatively quiet and fails to make a higher high but the OBV soars higher than the previous high — indicating that the institutional traders are accumulating short positions. On the other hand, if the price makes a lower low and the OBV makes a higher low, there is a classical bullish divergence, showing that the institutional traders don’t believe in that move
With this study, Momentum and Acceleration (optional) of OBV is calculated and presented, where momentum is most commonly referred to as a rate and measures the acceleration of the price and/or volume of a security. It is also referred to as a technical analysis indicator and oscillator that is able to determine market trends.
Additionally, smoothing functionality with Least Squares Method is added
Divergences especially, should always be noted as a possible reversal in the current trend, so the divergence indicator is adapted with this study where the Momentum of OBV is assumed as Oscillator with similar usages as to RSI. Divergence is most often used to track and analyze the momentum in an asset’s price and the odds of a price reversal within the current trend. The divergence indicator warns traders and technical analysts of changes in a price/volume trend, oftentimes that it is weakening or changing direction.
Correlation Coefficient
The correlation coefficient is a statistical measure of the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables. A correlation of -1.0 shows a perfect negative correlation, while a correlation of 1.0 shows a perfect positive correlation. A correlation of 0.0 shows no linear relationship between the movement of the two variables. In other words, the closer the Correlation Coefficient is to 1.0, indicates the instruments will move up and down together as it is mostly expected with volume and price. So the Correlation Coefficient Indicator aims to display when the price and volume (on balance volume) is in correlation and when not. With this study blue represent positive correlation while orange negative correlation. The strength of the correlation is determined by the width of the bands, to emphasis the effect horizontal lines are drawn with values set to 0.5 and -0.5. the values above 0.5 (or below -0.5) shows stronger correlation.
Chaikin Money Flow , provide optionally as a companion indicator
The Chaikin money flow indicator (CMF) is a volume indicator that measures the money flow volume over a chosen period. The money flow volume is a measure of the volume and where the price closed relative to the trading session’s range. It comes from the idea that buying pressure is indicated by a rising volume and recurrent closes in the upper part of the session’s price range while selling pressure is demonstrated by an increasing volume and repeated closes in the lower part of the price range.
Both buying and selling pressures are accompanied by an increase in volume, but the location of the closing prices are in accordance with the direction of price

Finnie's RSI with EMA + MFI + Stoch V2RSI seams to be one of the most used indicators by far, and that comes because of merit . With that in mind, the goal of this indicator is to expand upon the tradition RSI or Relative Strength Index we all know and love :) I started by adding an EMA crossover. Which gives you, the users, a general idea of when to buy and sell outside of just watching a line go down and up. To take thinks even further, I decided to add options for both Fast and Slow Stochastic oscillators. Adding STOCH brings in another variable when deciding on an entry, technically its a bit hard to explain but in practice it would go something like this: you notice RSI is down around the level 20 mark and RSI is crossing up above it's EMA , which is BULLISH signal, and you're thinking about going long. As a second confirmation you can look at the STOCH rsi , if it's also crossing above the previously spoken EMA that's another BULLISH signal. This process can be repeated once RSI has risen to find an exit.
V2 changes:
-added MFI
-added overbought(yellow)/oversold(red) visual indicator
-removed K stoch in order to clean the indicator up visually, I haven't regretted it since :)
Finnie's RSI with EMA crossover + StochRSI seams to be one of the most used indicators by far, and that comes because of merit. With that in mind, the goal of this indicator is to expand upon the tradition RSI or Relative Strength Index we all know and love :) I started by adding an EMA crossover. Which gives you, the users, a general idea of when to buy and sell outside of just watching a line go down and up. To take thinks even further, I decided to add options for both Fast and Slow Stochastic oscillators. Adding STOCH brings in another variable when deciding on an entry, technically its a bit hard to explain but in practice it would go something like this: you notice RSI is down around the level 20 mark and RSI is crossing up above it's EMA, which is BULLISH signal, and you're thinking about going long.

This process can be repeated once RSI has risen to find an exit.
EDIT: If you find the indicator is a bit too cluttered for you, feel free to disable the 'STOCH rsi' feature in settings :)
MACD-X, More Than MACD by DGTMoving Average Convergence Divergence – MACD
The most popular indicator used in technical analysis, the moving average convergence divergence (MACD), created by Gerald Appel. MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator, designed to reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a financial instrument’s price
Historical evolution of MACD,
- Gerald Appel created the MACD line,
- Thomas Aspray added the histogram feature to MACD
- Giorgos E. Siligardos created a leader of MACD
MACD employs two Moving Averages of varying lengths (which are lagging indicators) to identify trend direction and duration. Then, MACD takes the difference in values between those two Moving Averages (MACD Line) and an EMA of those Moving Averages (Signal Line) and plots that difference between the two lines as a histogram which oscillates above and below a center Zero Line. The histogram is used as a good indication of a security's momentum.
Mathematically expressed as;
macd = ma(source, fast_length) – ma(source, slow_length)
signal = ma(macd, signal_length)
histogram = macd – signal
where exponential moving average (ema) is in common use as a moving average (ma)
fast_length = 12
slow_length = 26
signal_length = 9
The MACD indicator is typically good for identifying three types of basic signals ;
Signal Line Crossovers
A Signal Line Crossover is the most common signal produced by the MACD. On the occasions where the MACD Line crosses above or below the Signal Line, that can signify a potentially strong move. The standard interpretation of such an event is a recommendation to buy if the MACD line crosses up through the Signal Line (a "bullish" crossover), or to sell if it crosses down through the Signal Line (a "bearish" crossover). These events are taken as indications that the trend in the financial instrument is about to accelerate in the direction of the crossover.
Zero Line Crossovers
Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crossed the Zero Line and either becomes positive (above 0) or negative (below 0). A change from positive to negative MACD is interpreted as "bearish", and from negative to positive as "bullish". Zero crossovers provide evidence of a change in the direction of a trend but less confirmation of its momentum than a signal line crossover
Divergence
Divergence is another signal created by the MACD. Simply, divergence occurs when the MACD and actual price are not in agreement. A "positive divergence" or "bullish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new low but the MACD does not confirm with a new low of its own. A "negative divergence" or "bearish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new high but the MACD does not confirm with a new high of its own. A divergence with respect to price may occur on the MACD line and/or the MACD Histogram
Moving Average Crossovers , another hidden signal that MACD Indicator identifies
Many traders will watch for a short-term moving average to cross above a longer-term moving average and use this to signal increasing upward momentum. This bullish crossover suggests that the price has recently been rising at a faster rate than it has in the past, so it is a common technical buy sign. Conversely, a short-term moving average crossing below a longer-term average is used to illustrate that the asset's price has been moving downward at a faster rate and that it may be a good time to sell.
Moving Average Crossovers in reality is Zero Line Crossovers, the value of the MACD indicator is equal to zero each time the two moving averages cross over each other. For easy interpretation by trades, Zero Line Crossovers are simply described as positive or negative MACD
False signals
Like any forecasting algorithm, the MACD can generate false signals. A false positive, for example, would be a bullish crossover followed by a sudden decline in a financial instrument. A false negative would be a situation where there is bearish crossover, yet the financial instrument accelerated suddenly upwards
What is “MACD-X” and Why it is “More Than MACD”
In its simples form, MACD-X implements variety of different calculation techniques applied to obtain MACD Line, ability to use of variety of different sources , including Volume related sources, and can be plotted along with MACD in the same window and all those features are available and presented within a single indicator, MACD-X
Different calculation techniques lead to different values for MACD Line, as will further discuss below, and as a consequence the signal line and the histogram values will differentiate accordingly. Mathematical calculation of both signal line and the histogram remain the same.
Main features of MACD-X ;
1- Introduces different proven techniques applied on MACD calculation , such as MACD-Histogram, MACD-Leader and MACD-Source, besides the traditional MACD (MACD-TRADITIONAL)
• MACD-Traditional , by Gerald Appel
It is the MACD that we know, stated as traditional just to avoid confusion with other techniques used with this study
• MACD-Histogram , by Thomas Aspray
The MACD-Histogram measures the distance between MACD and its signal line (the 9-day EMA of MACD). Aspray developed the MACD-Histogram to anticipate signal line crossovers in MACD. Because MACD uses moving averages and moving averages lag price, signal line crossovers can come late and affect the reward-to-risk ratio of a trade. Bullish or bearish divergences in the MACD-Histogram can alert chartists to an imminent signal line crossover in MACD
The MACD-Histogram represents the difference between MACD and its 9-day EMA, the signal line. Mathematically,
macdx = macd - ma(macd, signal_length)
Aspray's contribution served as a way to anticipate (and therefore cut down on lag) possible MACD crossovers which are a fundamental part of the indicator.
Here come a question, what if repeat the same calculations once more (macdh2 = macdh - ma(macdh, signal_length), will it be even better, this question will remain to be tested
• MACD-Leader , by Giorgos E. Siligardos, PhD
MACD Leader has the ability to lead MACD at critical situations. Almost all smoothing methods encounter in technical analysis are based on a relative-weighted sum of past prices, and the Leader is no exception. The concealed weights of MACD Leader are such that more relative weight is used in the more recent prices than the respective weights used by the components of MACD. In effect, the Leader expresses more changes in average price dynamics for the recent price movement than MACD, thus eventually leading MACD, especially when significant trend changes are about to take place.
Siligardos creates two less-laggard moving averages indicators in its formula using the same periods as follows
Indicator1 = ma(source, fast_length) + ma(source - ma(source, fast_length), fast_length)
Indicator2 = ma(source, slow_length) + ma(source - ma(source, slow_length), slow_length)
and then take the difference:
Indicator1 - Indicator2
The result is a new MACD Leader indicator
macdx = macd + ma(source - fast_ma, fast_length) - ma(source - slow_ma, slow_length)
• MACD-Source , a custom experimental interpretation of mine ,
MACD Source, presents an application of MACD that evaluates Source/MA Ratio, relatively with less lag, as a basis for MACD Line, also can be expressed as source convergence/divergence to its moving average. Among the various techniques for removing the lag between price and moving average (MA) of the price, one in particular stands out: the addition to the moving average of a portion of the difference between the price and MA. MACD Source, is based on signal length mean of the difference between Source and average value of shot length and long length moving average of the source (Source/MA Ratio), where the source is actual value and hence no lag and relatively less lag with the average value of moving average of the source . Mathematically expressed as,
macdx = ma(source - avg( ma(source, fast_length), ma(source, slow_length) ), signal_length)
MACD Source provides relatively early crossovers comparing to MACD and better momentum direction indications, assuming the lengths are set to same values
For further details, you are invited to check the following two studies, where the first seeds were sown of the MACD-Source idea
Price Distance to its Moving Averages study, adapts the idea of “Prices high above the moving average (MA) or low below it are likely to be remedied in the future by a reverse price movement", presented in an article by Denis Alajbeg, Zoran Bubas and Dina Vasic published in International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management
First MACD like interpretation comes with the second study named as “ P-MACD ”, where P stands for price, P-MACD study attempts to display relationship between Price and its 20 and 200-period moving average. Calculations with P-MACD were based on price distance (convergence/divergence) to its 200-period moving average, and moving average convergence/divergence of 20-period moving average to 200-period moving average of price.
Now as explained above, MACD Source is a one adapted with traditional MACD, where Source stands for Price, Volume Indicator etc, any source applicable with MACD concept
2- Allows usage of variety of different sources, including Volume related indicators
The most common usage of Source for MACD calculation is close value of the financial instruments price. As an experimental approach, this study will allow source to be selected as one of the following series;
• Current Close Price (close)
• Average of High, Low, and Close Price (hlc3)
• On Balance Volume (obv)
• Accumulation Distribution (accdist)
• Price Volume Trend (pvt)
Where,
-Current Close Price and Average of High, Low, and Close Price are price actions of the financial instrument
- Accumulation Distribution is a volume based indicator designed to measure underlying supply and demand
- On Balance Volume (OBV) , is a momentum indicator that measures positive and negative volume flow
- Price Volume Trend (PVT) is a momentum based indicator used to measure money flow
3- Can be plotted along with MACD in the same window using the same scaling
Default setting of MACD-X will display MACD-Source with Current Close Price as a source and traditional MACD can be plotted eighter as a companion of MACD-X or can be selected to be plotted alone.
Applying both will add ability to compare, or use as a confirmation of one other
In case, traditional MACD Is plotted along with MACD-X to avoid misinterpreting, the lines plotted, the area between MACD-X Line and Signal-X Line is highlighted automatically, even if the highlight option not selected. Otherwise highlight will be applied only if that option selected
4- 4C Histogram
Histogram is plotted with four colors to emphasize the momentum and direction
5- Customizable
Additional to ability of selecting Calculation Method, Source, plotting along with MACD, there are few other option that allows users to customize the MACD-X indicator
Lengths are configurable, default values are set as 12, 26, 9 respectively for fast, slow and smoothing length. Setting lengths to 8,21,5 respectively Is worth checking, slower length moving averages will lead to less lag and earlier reaction to price actions but yet requires a caution and back testing before applying
Highlight the area between MACD-X Line and Signal-X Line, with colors emphasising the direction
Label can be added to display Calculation Method, Source and Length settings, the aim of this label is to server only as a reminder to trades to be aware of settings while they are occupied with charts, analysis etc.
Here comes another question, which is of more importance having the reminder or having the indicators with multi timeframe feature? Build-in Multi Time Frame features of Pine is not supported when labels and lines introduced in the script, there are other methods but brings complexity. To be studied further, this version will be with labels for time being.
Epilogue
MACD-X is an alternative variant of MACD, the insight/signals provided by MACD are also applicable to MACD-X with early and clear warnings for the changes in the trend.
If MACD is essential to your analysis, then it is my guess that after using the MACD-X for a while and familiarizing yourself with its unique character and personality, you will make it an inseparable companion to other indicators in your charts.
The various signals generated by MACD/MACD-X are easily interpreted and very few indicators in technical analysis have proved to be more reliable than the MACD, and this relatively simple indicator can quickly be incorporated into any short-term trading strategy

Noldo CFTC COT Forex IndicatorHello.
I decided to publish the COT Forex Indicator, which I created for convenience, as an open source.
The period DXY is determined by the differences between the two signals on the Pivot Reversal Strategy on the weekly chart.(1W)
Thus, relative period point search is automated.
When the new signal comes, after the closing, the number of bars between the previous bar before the new signal comes both directions.
This elapsed time is our period in which we will look back on relative changes.
If there is no signal, the period remains constant, thereby allowing us to notice excessive changes.
And in this period, COT data exchange and price changes are reflected in the terminal.
The automatic time-keeping of the period and the automatic generation of the relative differences of the terminals according to the period prevents a great loss of time.
Thus, we create one of the strong columns that enable us to make decisions.
The other column is the signals we obtained as a result of technical analysis.
The last column is the economic agenda and data tracking.
That's why I made my decision to share this:
Real life should not be distracted,
should not be drowned in the sea of technical analysis.
COT data is one of the most important and valuable tools that bring us signs of real life,
It should not be forgotten !
A lot of time is lost while doing these analyzes, and I wanted this to be much more practical and tidy!
And we can see if there are factors that will back up our incoming signals.
Usage
This script works only on DXY .
You must open DXY.
It only works on 1W graphics.
Because COT data is announced on Tuesday, it will cause repaint every Tuesday.
However, since it is a terminal, this factor is not strong enough to affect your decisions.
For use, you should open the bottom panel, go a little to the right in the history section and enlarge the panel you have opened.
The terminal will take its form in the presentation and provide analysis on the big screen.
COT data are pulled via Quandl.
General kind request:
Authors who know the technical broad expression of the security function or have an idea about its creation, please reach me.
Best regards.
Nth Order Differencing Oscillator Perform higher order differencing through convolution, the result is equivalent to cascading N momentum oscillators of periods P :
mom(mom(mom(mom(x,P)...,P)
Settings
length - Period of the oscillator, indicate the lag to use (equivalent to the period in a momentum oscillator)
order - Differencing order, indicate how many times differencing is performed (number of times a momentum oscillator is cascaded)
src - Input of the indicator
Usage
Differencing consists in subtracting an input to a previous input, this is what the momentum oscillator performs. This is often done in order to remove longer-term variations in the price. Differencing also induces a 90-degree phase shift for all sinusoids in a signal, this is why oscillators can have this leading effect, as such higher differencing can sometimes help have a faster and more visible lead.
In red the indicator with period 50 and differencing order 2, below a momentum oscillator of the same period.
It is important to note that differencing is an operation that increases noise, in fact, you might have seen some oscillators use the median price hl2 instead of the closing price, this is because the median price contains less noise than the closing price, as such more differencing require a smoother input.
Here both the sma and the oscillator period are equal to 20 with a differencing order of 5.
In time series analysis the order of differencing is chosen depending on the order of integration, more simply put we should choose a differencing order that responds to the question: "How many time should I differentiate my time series so that the result is stationary?", for stocks prices this differencing order should be 1.
Technically speaking differencing orders higher than 3 might be overkill, as higher orders return noisier outputs that might no longer be representative of the original input.
here a period of 14 with differencing order of 20 is used, we can see more periodic results but they are not really representative of the closing prices.
Details
Simple differencing is actually achieved thought convolution, if we take a first-order difference x - x(1) , we can see that this is equivalent to 1*x + -1*x(1) , the coefficients are 1 and -1, for the momentum oscillator the difference is that the coefficients include 0 values. So we only need a function generating the coefficients of our Nth order difference oscillator, in order to get them lets analyze the impulse response of a cascaded change function.
Here 5 change function are cascaded, the coefficients are: (1,-5,10,-10,5,-1)
If you look at these coefficients and the ones of higher/lower order differences we can deduce various things
The impulse response is symmetric
The first coefficient is always 1 and the last always -1
The number of coefficients increase with higher differencing orders
The sign of the current coefficient is different from the sign of the previous one
From the shape of the impulse response, we can deduce that the coefficients of an Nth order differencing operator is a windowed series of 1,-1,1...,-1 , and that's actually the case, for an Nth order differencing operator the values of this window are given by the Nth row of the Pascal triangle.
There are various ways to get the values in the row of the Pascal triangle, one involving using the combination formula, however, we can do it way faster by using the recursive formula used in line number 13. Now that we have our coefficients we only need to separate them with 0 values and that's all.
Conclusion
We can see that oscillators are noisier than the original input signal, this is can be a desired effect in order to make lagging indicators more reactive, but it can also be overlooked due to the results appearing leading the price or just looking more predictable, however, we should note that higher-order differencing does not provide a consistent nor reliable solution toward minimizing lag, nor does classical oscillators.
The indicator is not useful, but if for some reason you require a lot of differencing operations to be done and don't want to use consecutive change or mom functions, then this script might results useful to you.
Dual SuperTrend, Ichimoku and DMI Color Weighted by DGTThis study interprets SuperTrend with Ichimoku Cloud, one of the popular technical analysis indicator, and interprets Directional Movement (DMI), which is another quite valuable technical analysis indicator.
Then combines the interpreted SuperTrend with interpreted Directional Movement (DMI) and Volume Based Colored Bars indicator created by Kıvaç ÖZBİLGİÇ (permission has been granted from the author)
Here are details of the concept applied
1- SuperTrend Line colored based on Ichimoku Cloud
Definition
The Ichimoku Cloud, developed by Goichi Hosoda and published in the late 1960s, is a collection of technical indicators that give it a unique capacity to show support and resistance levels, momentum and trend direction
What Does the Ichimoku Cloud Tells?
The overall trend is up when price is above the cloud, known as Kumo Cloud, down when price is below the Kumo Cloud, and trendless or transitioning when price is in the Kumo Cloud
When Senkou Span A (Leading Span A) is rising and above Senkou Span B (Leading Span B), this helps confirm the uptrend and space between the lines is typically colored green. When Senkou Span A is falling and below Senkou Span B, this helps confirm the downtrend. The space between the lines is typically colored red
Traders often use the Kumo Cloud as an area of support and resistance depending on the relative location of the price. The Kumo Cloud provides support/resistance levels that can be projected into the future. This sets the Ichimoku Cloud apart from many other technical indicators that only provide support and resistance levels for the current date and time
Crossovers, also known as TK Cross among Ichimoku Cloud traders, are another way the indicator can be used. Watch for the Tenkan-Sen Line, or Conversion Line, to move above the Kijun-Sen Line, or Base Line, especially when price is above the Kumo cloud. This can be a powerful buy signal. One option is to hold the trade until the Tenkan-Sen drops back below the Kijun-Sen Line. Any of the other lines could be used as exit points as well.
With this study:
Allow Traders to use the Ichimoku Cloud in conjunction with other technical indicators to maximize their risk-adjusted returns
The Ichimoku Cloud can make a chart look busy with all the lines. To Remedy this a different approach is applied in this study showing the Price and the Kumo Cloud relation as well as TK Crosses displayed. The SuperTrend Indicator is chosen to display Ichimoku Indicator, where the SuperTrend is another trend following indicator.
How it works:
SuperTrend Line is colored as:
Green when the Price is above the Kumo Cloud
Red when the Price is below the Kumo Cloud
Black when the Price is within the Kumo Cloud
And Finally Blue when the Kumo Cloud Is not ready to be drawn or not Kumo Cloud available
Additionally intensity of the colors used in all cases above are defined by values of Tenkan-Sen and Kijun-Sen Line, which allows us to detect TK Crosses
2- Plots Colored Directional Movement Line
Definition
Directional Movement (DMI) (created by J. Welles Wilder ) is actually a collection of three separate indicators combined into one. Directional Movement consists of the Average Directional Index (ADX) , Plus Directional Indicator (+D I) and Minus Directional Indicator (-D I) . ADX's purposes is to define whether or not there is a trend present. It does not take direction into account at all. The other two indicators (+DI and -DI) are used to compliment the ADX. They serve the purpose of determining trend direction. By combining all three, a technical analyst has a way of determining and measuring a trend's strength as well as its direction.
This study combines all three lines in a single colored shapes series plotted on the top of the price chart indicating the trend strength with different colors and its direction with triangle up and down shapes.
What to look for
Trend Strength : Analyzing trend strength is the most basic use for the DMI. Wilder believed that a DMI reading above 25 indicated a strong trend, while a reading below 20 indicated a weak or non-existent trend
Crosses : DI Crossovers are the significant trading signal generated by the DMI
With this study
A Strong Trend is assumed when ADX >= 25
Bullish Trend is defined as (+D I > -DI ) and (ADX >= 25), which is plotted as green triangle up shape on top of the price chart
Bearish Trend is defined as (+D I < -DI ) and (ADX >= 25), which is plotted as red triangle down shape on top of the price chart
Week Trend is assumed when 17< ADX < 25, which is plotted as black triangles up or down shape, depending on +DI-DI values, on top of the price chart
Non-Existent Trend is assumed when ADX < 17, which is plotted as yellow triangles up or down shape, depending on +DI-DI values, on top of the price chart
Additionally intensity of the colors used in all cases above are defined by comparing ADX’s current value with its previous value
3- Volume Based Colored Bars indicator created by Kıvaç ÖZBİLGİÇ
Volume Based Colored Bars colors the bars into volume weighted signals increasing the visibility of the Volume changes. Intensity of the colors of the bars varies according to average value of the volume for given length of bars (default value set to 30 bars)
