NVOL Normalized Volume & VolatilityOVERVIEW
Plots a normalized volume (or volatility) relative to a given bar's typical value across all charted sessions. The concept is similar to Relative Volume (RVOL) and Average True Range (ATR), but rather than using a moving average, this script uses bar data from previous sessions to more accurately separate what's normal from what's anomalous. Compatible on all timeframes and symbols.
Having volume and volatility processed within a single indicator not only allows you to toggle between the two for a consistent data display, it also allows you to measure how correlated they are. These measurements are available in the data table.
DATA & MATH
The core formula used to normalize each bar is:
( Value / Basis ) × Scale
Value
The current bar's volume or volatility (see INPUTS section). When set to volume, it's exactly what you would expect (the volume of the bar). When set to volatility, it's the bar's range (high - low).
Basis
A statistical threshold (Mean, Median, or Q3) plus a Sigma multiple (standard deviations). The default is set to the Mean + Sigma × 3 , which represents 99.7% of data in a normal distribution. The values are derived from the current bar's equivalent in other sessions. For example, if the current bar time is 9:30 AM, all previous 9:30 AM bars would be used to get the Mean and Sigma. Thus Mean + Sigma × 3 would represent the Normal Bar Vol at 9:30 AM.
Scale
Depends on the Normalize setting, where it is 1 when set to Ratio, and 100 when set to Percent. This simply determines the plot's scale (ie. 0 to 1 vs. 0 to 100).
INPUTS
While the default configuration is recommended for a majority of use cases (see BEST PRACTICES), settings should be adjusted so most of the Normalized Plot and Linear Regression are below the Signal Zone. Only the most extreme values should exceed this area.
Normalize
Allows you to specify what should be normalized (Volume or Volatility) and how it should be measured (as a Ratio or Percentage). This sets the value and scale in the core formula.
Basis
Specifies the statistical threshold (Mean, Median, or Q3) and how many standard deviations should be added to it (Sigma). This is the basis in the core formula.
Mean is the sum of values divided by the quantity of values. It's what most people think of when they say "average."
Median is the middle value, where 50% of the data will be lower and 50% will be higher.
Q3 is short for Third Quartile, where 75% of the data will be lower and 25% will be higher (think three quarters).
Sample
Determines the maximum sample size.
All Charted Bars is the default and recommended option, and ignores the adjacent lookback number.
Lookback is not recommended, but it is available for comparisons. It uses the adjacent lookback number and is likely to produce unreliable results outside a very specific context that is not suitable for most traders. Normalization is not a moving average. Unless you have a good reason to limit the sample size, do not use this option and instead use All Charted Bars .
Show Vol. name on plot
Overlays "VOLUME" or "VOLATILITY" on the plot (whichever you've selected).
Lin. Reg.
Polynomial regressions are great for capturing non-linear patterns in data. TradingView offers a "linear regression curve", which this script uses as a substitute. If you're unfamiliar with either term, think of this like a better moving average.
You're able to specify the color, length, and multiple (how much to amplify the value). The linear regression derives its value from the normalized values.
Norm. Val.
This is the color of the normalized value of the current bar (see DATA & MATH section). You're able to specify the default, within signal, and beyond signal colors. As well as the plot style.
Fade in colors between zero and the signal
Programmatically adjust the opacity of the primary plot color based on it's normalized value. When enabled, values equal to 0 will be fully transparent, become more opaque as they move away from 0, and be fully opaque at the signal. Adjusting opacity in this way helps make difference more obvious.
Plot relative to bar direction
If enabled, the normalized value will be multiplied by -1 when a bar's open is greater than the bar's close, mirroring price direction.
Technically volume and volatility are directionless. Meaning there's really no such thing as buy volume, sell volume, positive volatility, or negative volatility. There is just volume (1 buy = 1 sell = 1 volume) and volatility (high - low). Even so, visually reflecting the net effect of pricing pressure can still be useful. That's all this setting does.
Sig. Zone
Signal zones make identifying extremes easier. They do not signal if you should buy or sell, only that the current measurement is beyond what's normal. You are able to adjust the color and bounds of the zone.
Int. Levels
Interim levels can be useful when you want to visually bracket values into high / medium / low. These levels can have a value anywhere between 0 and 1. They will automatically be multiplied by 100 when the scale is set to Percent.
Zero Line
This setting allows you to specify the visibility of the zero line to best suit your trading style.
Volume & Volatility Stats
Displays a table of core values for both volume and volatility. Specifically the actual value, threshold (mean, median, or Q3), sigma (standard deviation), basis, normalized value, and linear regression.
Correlation Stats
Displays a table of correlation statistics for the current bar, as well as the data set average. Specifically the coefficient, R2, and P-Value.
Indices & Sample Size
Displays a table of mixed data. Specifically the current bar's index within the session, the current bar's index within the sample, and the sample size used to normalize the current bar's value.
BEST PRACTICES
NVOL can tell you what's normal for 9:30 AM. RVOL and ATR can only tell you if the current value is higher or lower than a moving average.
In a normal distribution (bell curve) 99.7% of data occurs within 3 standard deviations of the mean. This is why the default basis is set to "Mean, 3"; it includes the typical day-to-day fluctuations, better contextualizing what's actually normal, minimizing false positives.
This means a ratio value greater than 1 only occurs 0.3% of the time. A series of these values warrants your attention. Which is why the default signal zone is between 1 and 2. Ratios beyond 2 would be considered extreme with the default settings.
Inversely, ratio values less than 1 (the normal daily fluctuations) also tell a story. We should expect most values to occur around the middle 3rd, which is why interim levels default to 0.33 and 0.66, visually simplifying a given move's participation. These can be set to whatever you like and only serve as visual aids for your specific trading style.
It's worth noting that the linear regression oscillates when plotted directionally, which can help clarify short term move exhaustion and continuation. Akin to a relative strength index (RSI), it may be used to inform a trading decision, but it should not be the only factor.

Linear Regression Channel [TradingFinder] Existing Trend Line🔵 Introduction
The Linear Regression Channel indicator is one of the technical analysis tool, widely used to identify support, resistance, and analyze upward and downward trends.
The Linear Regression Channel comprises five main components : the midline, representing the linear regression line, and the support and resistance lines, which are calculated based on the distance from the midline using either standard deviation or ATR.
This indicator leverages linear regression to forecast price changes based on historical data and encapsulates price movements within a price channel.
The upper and lower lines of the channel, which define resistance and support levels, assist traders in pinpointing entry and exit points, ultimately aiding better trading decisions.
When prices approach these channel lines, the likelihood of interaction with support or resistance levels increases, and breaking through these lines may signal a price reversal or continuation.
Due to its precision in identifying price trends, analyzing trend reversals, and determining key price levels, the Linear Regression Channel indicator is widely regarded as a reliable tool across financial markets such as Forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Identifying Entry Signals
One of the primary uses of this indicator is recognizing buy signals. The lower channel line acts as a support level, and when the price nears this line, the likelihood of an upward reversal increases.
In an uptrend : When the price approaches the lower channel line and signs of upward reversal (e.g., reversal candlesticks or high trading volume) are observed, it is considered a buy signal.
In a downtrend : If the price breaks the lower channel line and subsequently re-enters the channel, it may signal a trend change, offering a buying opportunity.
🟣 Identifying Exit Signals
The Linear Regression Channel is also used to identify sell signals. The upper channel line generally acts as a resistance level, and when the price approaches this line, the likelihood of a price decrease increases.
In an uptrend : Approaching the upper channel line and observing weakness in the uptrend (e.g., declining volume or reversal patterns) indicates a sell signal.
In a downtrend : When the price reaches the upper channel line and reverses downward, this is considered a signal to exit trades.
🟣 Analyzing Channel Breakouts
The Linear Regression Channel allows traders to identify price breakouts as strong signals of potential trend changes.
Breaking the upper channel line : Indicates buyer strength and the likelihood of a continued uptrend, often accompanied by increased trading volume.
Breaking the lower channel line : Suggests seller dominance and the possibility of a continued downtrend, providing a strong sell signal.
🟣 Mean Reversion Analysis
A key concept in using the Linear Regression Channel is the tendency for prices to revert to the midline of the channel, which acts as a dynamic moving average, reflecting the price's equilibrium over time.
In uptrends : Significant deviations from the midline increase the likelihood of a price retracement toward the midline.
In downtrends : When prices deviate considerably from the midline, a return toward the midline can be used to identify potential reversal points.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Time Frame
The time frame setting enables users to view higher time frame data on a lower time frame chart. This feature is especially useful for traders employing multi-time frame analysis.
🟣 Regression Type
Standard : Utilizes classical linear regression to draw the midline and channel lines.
Advanced : Produces similar results to the standard method but may provide slightly different alignment on the chart.
🟣 Scaling Type
Standard Deviation : Suitable for markets with stable volatility.
ATR (Average True Range) : Ideal for markets with higher volatility.
🟣 Scaling Coefficients
Larger coefficients create broader channels for broader trend analysis.
Smaller coefficients produce tighter channels for precision analysis.
🟣 Channel Extension
None : No extension.
Left: Extends lines to the left to analyze historical trends.
Right : Extends lines to the right for future predictions.
Both : Extends lines in both directions.
🔵 Conclusion
The Linear Regression Channel indicator is a versatile and powerful tool in technical analysis, providing traders with support, resistance, and midline insights to better understand price behavior. Its advanced settings, including time frame selection, regression type, scaling options, and customizable coefficients, allow for tailored and precise analysis.
One of its standout advantages is its ability to support multi-time frame analysis, enabling traders to view higher time frame data within a lower time frame context. The option to use scaling methods like ATR or standard deviation further enhances its adaptability to markets with varying volatility.
Designed to identify entry and exit signals, analyze mean reversion, and assess channel breakouts, this indicator is suitable for a wide range of markets, including Forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. By incorporating this tool into your trading strategy, you can make more informed decisions and improve the accuracy of your market predictions.
Linear Regression Channel Screener [Daveatt]Hello traders
First and foremost, I want to extend a huge thank you to @LonesomeTheBlue for his exceptional Linear Regression Channel indicator that served as the foundation for this screener.
Original work can be found here:
Overview
This project demonstrates how to transform any open-source indicator into a powerful multi-asset screener.
The principles shown here can be applied to virtually any indicator you find interesting.
How to Transform an Indicator into a Screener
Step 1: Identify the Core Logic
First, identify the main calculations of the indicator.
In our case, it's the Linear Regression
Channel calculation:
get_channel(src, len) =>
mid = math.sum(src, len) / len
slope = ta.linreg(src, len, 0) - ta.linreg(src, len, 1)
intercept = mid - slope * math.floor(len / 2) + (1 - len % 2) / 2 * slope
endy = intercept + slope * (len - 1)
dev = 0.0
for x = 0 to len - 1 by 1
dev := dev + math.pow(src - (slope * (len - x) + intercept), 2)
dev
dev := math.sqrt(dev / len)
Step 2: Use request.security()
Pass the function to request.security() to analyze multiple assets:
= request.security(sym, timeframe.period, get_channel(src, len))
Step 3: Scale to Multiple Assets
PineScript allows up to 40 request.security() calls, letting you monitor up to 40 assets simultaneously.
Features of This Screener

Adaptive Linear Regression ChannelOverview
The Adaptive Linear Regression Channel Script is an advanced, multi-functional trading tool crafted to help traders pinpoint market trends, identify potential reversals, assess volatility, and establish dynamic levels for profit-taking and position exits. By incorporating key concepts such as linear regression , standard deviation , and other volatility measures like the ATR , the script offers a comprehensive view of market behavior beyond traditional deviation metrics.
This dynamic model continuously adapts to changing market conditions, adjusting in real-time to provide clear visualizations of trends, channels, and volatility levels. This adaptability makes the script invaluable for both trend-following and counter-trend strategies, giving traders the flexibility to respond effectively to different market environments.
Background
What is Linear Regression?
Definition : Linear regression is a statistical technique used to model the relationship between a dependent variable (target) and one or more independent variables (predictors).
In its simplest form (simple linear regression), the relationship between two variables is represented by a straight line (the regression line).
y = mx + b
where :
- y is the target variable (price)
- m is the slope
- x is the independent variable (time)
- b is the intercept
Slope of the Regression Line
Definition: The slope (m) measures the rate at which the dependent variable (y) changes as the independent variable (x) changes.
Interpretation:
- A positive slope indicates an uptrend.
- A negative slope indicates a downtrend.
Uses in Trading:
- Identifying the strength and direction of market trends.
- Assessing the momentum of price movements.
R-squared (Coefficient of Determination)
Definition: A measure of how well the regression line fits the data, ranging from 0 to 1.
Calculation :
R2 = 1− (SS tot/SS res)
where:
- SSres is the sum of squared residuals.
- SStot is the total sum of squares.
Interpretation:
- Higher R2 indicates a better fit, meaning the model explains a larger proportion of the variance in the data.
Uses in Trading:
- Higher R-squared values give traders confidence in trend-based signals.
- Low R-squared values may suggest that the market is more random or volatile.
Standard Deviation
Definition: Standard Deviation quantifies the dispersion of data points in a dataset relative to the mean. A low standard deviation indicates that data points tend to be close to the mean, while a high standard deviation indicates that the data points are spread out over a larger range of values.
Calculation
σ=√∑(xi−μ)2/N
Where
- σ is the standard deviation.
- ∑ is the summation symbol, indicating that the expression that follows should be summed over all data points.
- xi, this represents the i-th data point in the dataset.
- μ\mu, this represents the mean(average) of all the data points in the dataset.
- (xi−μ)2, this is the squared difference between each data point and the mean.
- N is the total number of data points in the dataset.
- **Interpretation**
- A higher standard deviation indicates greater volatility.
- Useful for identifying overbought/oversold conditions in markets.
Key Features
Dynamic Linear Regression Channels:
The script automatically generates adaptive regression channels that expand or contract based on the current market volatility. This real-time adjustment ensures that traders are always working with the most relevant data, making it easier to spot key support and resistance levels.
The channel width itself serves as an indicator of market volatility, expanding during periods of heightened uncertainty and contracting during more stable phases. Additionally, the channel width is trained on previous channel widths , allowing the script to adapt and provide a more accurate view of volatility trends of the asset. Traders can also customize the script to train on less historical data , enabling a more recent view of volatility , which is particularly useful in fast-moving or changing markets.
Dynamic Profits and Stops:
What is it?
Dynamic profit levels allow traders to adjust take-profit targets based on real-time market conditions. Unlike static levels, which remain fixed regardless of market changes, these adaptive levels leverage past volatility data to create more flexible profit-taking strategies.
How does it work?
The script determines these levels using previously stored deviation values. These deviations are categorized into quantiles (like Q1, Q2, Q3, etc.) to classify current market conditions. As new deviation data is recorded, the profit levels are adjusted dynamically to reflect changes in market volatility. This approach helps to refine profit targets, especially when using regression channels with standard deviation rather than traditional ATR bands.
Why is it valuable?
By utilizing adaptive profit levels, traders can optimize their exits based on the current volatility landscape. For instance, when volatility increases, the dynamic levels expand, allowing trades to capture larger price movements. Conversely, during low volatility, profit targets tighten to lock in gains sooner, reducing exposure to market reversals. This flexibility is especially beneficial when combined with adaptive regression channels that respond to changes in standard deviation.
Slope-Based Trend Analysis:
One of the core elements of this script is the slope of the regression line , which helps define the direction and strength of the trend. Positive slopes indicate bullish momentum, while negative slopes suggest bearish conditions. The slope's steepness gives traders insight into the market's momentum, allowing them to adjust their strategies based on the strength of the trend.
Additionally, the script uses the slope to create a color gradient , which visually represents the intensity of the market's momentum. The gradient peaks at one color to show the maximum bullish momentum experienced in the past, while another color represents the maximum bearish momentum experienced in the past. This color-coded visualization makes it easier for traders to quickly assess the market's strength and direction at a glance.
Volatility Heatmap:
The integrated heatmap provides an intuitive, color-coded visualization of market volatility. The heatmap highlights areas where price action is expanding or contracting, giving traders a clear view of where volatility is rising or falling. By mapping out deviations from the regression line, the heatmap makes it easier to spot periods of high volatility that could lead to major market moves or potential reversals.
Deviation Concepts:
The script tracks price deviations from the regression line when a new range is formed, providing valuable insights when the price significantly deviates from the expected trend. These deviations are key in identifying potential breakout points or trend shifts .
This helps traders understand when the market is overextended or when a pullback may be imminent, allowing them to make more informed trading decisions.
Adaptive Model Properties:
Unlike static indicators, this script adapts over time . As the market changes, it stores historical data related to channel widths , slope dynamics , and volatility levels , adjusting its analysis accordingly to stay relevant to current market conditions.
Traders have the ability to train the model on all available data or specify a set number of bars to focus on more recent market activity. This flexibility allows for more tailored analysis , ensuring that traders can work with data that best fits their trading style and time horizon.
This continuous learning approach ensures that traders always have the most up-to-date insight into the market's structure.
Table
The table displays key metrics in real time to provide deeper insights into market behavior:
1. Deviation & Slope : Shows the current deviation if set to standard deviation or atr if set to atr(values used to calculated the channel widths) and the trend slope, helping to gauge market volatility and trend direction.
2. Rate of Change : For both deviation/atr and slope, the table also calculates the rate of change of their rates—essentially capturing the acceleration or deceleration of trends and volatility. This helps identify shifts in market momentum early.
3. R-squared : Indicates the strength and reliability of the trend fit. A higher value means the regression line better explains the price movements.
4. Quantiles : Uses historical deviation data to categorize current market conditions into quartiles (e.g., Q1, Q2, Q3). This helps classify the market's current volatility level, allowing traders to adjust strategies dynamically.
By combining these metrics, the table offers a comprehensive, real-time snapshot of market conditions, enabling more informed and adaptive trading decisions.

Linear Regression Channel UltimateKey Features and Benefits
Logarithmic scale option for improved analysis of long-term trends and volatile markets
Activity-based profiling using either touch count or volume data
Customizable channel width and number of profile fills
Adjustable number of most active levels displayed
Highly configurable visual settings for optimal chart readability
Why Logarithmic Scale Matters
The logarithmic scale option is a game-changer for analyzing assets with exponential growth or high volatility. Unlike linear scales, log scales represent percentage changes consistently across the price range. This allows for:
Better visualization of long-term trends
More accurate comparison of price movements across different price levels
Improved analysis of volatile assets or markets experiencing rapid growth
How It Works
The indicator calculates a linear regression line based on the specified period
Upper and lower channel lines are drawn at a customizable distance from the regression line
The space between the channel lines is divided into a user-defined number of levels
For each level, the indicator tracks either:
- The number of times price touches the level (touch count method)
- The total volume traded when price is at the level (volume method)
The most active levels are highlighted based on this activity data
Understanding Touch Count vs Volume
Touch count method: Useful for identifying key support/resistance levels based on price action alone
Volume method: Provides insight into levels where the most trading activity occurs, potentially indicating stronger support/resistance
Practical Applications
Trend identification and strength assessment
Support and resistance level discovery
Entry and exit point optimization
Volume profile analysis for improved market structure understanding
This Linear Regression Channel indicator combines powerful statistical analysis with flexible visualization options, making it an invaluable tool for traders and analysts across various timeframes and markets. Its unique features, especially the logarithmic scale and activity profiling, provide deeper insights into market behavior and potential turning points.
Mean Reversion Entry Signal
Mean Reversion Entry Signal Indicator
The Mean Reversion Entry Signal indicator is a trading tool designed for traders looking to capitalize on market corrections. This script leverages mean reversion principles, utilizing price levels and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to generate potential entry signals for both long and short positions.
Key Features:
1. **Dynamic Price Levels**:
- The indicator calculates critical price levels over a user-defined lookback period, including:
- High (H)**: The highest price point over the lookback period.
- Low (L)**: The lowest price point over the lookback period.
- Midpoint (M)**: The average of the high and low.
- Midpoint High (Mh)** and **Midpoint Low (Ml)**: Additional reference levels derived from M for more nuanced trading signals.
2. User-Configurable Inputs:
- Lookback Period: Traders can specify the number of hours to look back for the calculations, allowing for tailored analysis that fits various trading strategies. By default the lookback is set for 24 hours, as i consider it the most adequate for day trading.
- Aggression Level: This input lets users choose their trading strategy's intensity, affecting the sensitivity of entry signals based on the percentage difference from the midpoint.
3. Entry Signal Generation:
The script evaluates market conditions to signal potential trades:
- Long Entries: Indicated when the price is below the Ml level and the price demonstrates a significant distance from the midpoint (M), coupled with RSI being near the oversold territory.
- Short Entries: Triggered when the price exceeds the Mh level, also indicating a significant distance from M, while the RSI indicates near overbought conditions.
4. Visual Indicators:
Clear visual signals are plotted directly on the chart:
- Long Signals are represented as upward triangles in green.
- Short Signals appear as downward triangles in red.
- Important price levels (M, H, L, Mh, and Ml) are displayed to provide traders with immediate context for potential trades.
5. No Entry Zone:
The area between Mh and Ml is shaded to indicate a "No Entry Zone," helping traders identify regions where conditions may not be favorable for taking new positions.
This can also be used as potencial profit taking area.
Conclusion
1. This indicator was built mainly for day trading, using timeframes between 1 minute and 1 hour. If you want to use it in 1D time frame, for instance, you should adjust the lookback period to 120 hours or so.
2. To use this as a strategy, you should not be afraid to "add to your losers" as the trade goes against you and the signals continue to appear.

Trend Following Regression CloudTrend Following Regression Cloud Indicator
The Trend Following Regression Cloud is a versatile trading tool designed to help you effortlessly identify the market's prevailing trend. By analyzing price movements over multiple time frames, it provides a clear visual representation of whether the market is trending upwards or downwards.
How It Works:
- Adaptive Analysis: The indicator calculates linear regression lines over various periods ranging from short-term to long-term (e.g., 10, 20, 50, up to 500 periods). This means it adapts quickly to recent market changes, capturing new trends as they develop.
- Noise Reduction: By comparing and weighting the slopes of these regression lines, it filters out insignificant price fluctuations (market noise). This ensures that the signals you receive are more reliable and less prone to false alarms.
- Cloud Calculation: The cloud is generated by first calculating the slopes of multiple linear regression lines over different lengths. The differences between the slopes of shorter-term and longer-term regressions are then computed and weighted by their respective lengths. By summing up these weighted differences, the indicator produces a "total distance" value. This value is applied to a baseline (such as a 100-period simple moving average) to create the cloud line. The area between the baseline and the cloud line is filled, and its color changes based on whether the total distance is positive or negative, providing a visual cue of the market's trend direction.
- Visual Representation: The indicator plots two lines—a base line and a cloud line—creating a shaded area (the "cloud") between them. The color of this cloud changes based on market conditions:
- Green Cloud: Indicates that short-term trends are stronger than long-term trends, suggesting an upward market movement. This could be a good time to consider buying.
- Red Cloud: Signifies that the market may be trending downwards, as long-term trends overpower short-term ones. This could be an opportune moment to consider selling.
Periodic Linear Regressions [LuxAlgo]The Periodic Linear Regressions (PLR) indicator calculates linear regressions periodically (similar to the VWAP indicator) based on a user-set period (anchor).
This allows for estimating underlying trends in the price, as well as providing potential supports/resistances.
🔶 USAGE
The Periodic Linear Regressions indicator calculates a linear regression over a user-selected interval determined from the selected "Anchor Period".
The PLR can be visualized as a regular linear regression (Static), with a fit readjusting for new data points until the end of the selected period, or as a moving average (Rolling), with new values obtained from the last point of a linear regression fitted over the calculation interval. While the static method line is prone to repainting, it has value since it can further emphasize the linearity of an underlying trend, as well as suggest future trend directions by extrapolating the fit.
Extremities are included in the indicator, these are obtained from the root mean squared error (RMSE) between the price and calculated linear regression. The Multiple setting allows the users to control how far each extremity is from the other.
Periodic Linear Regressions can be helpful in finding support/resistance areas or even opportunities when ranging in a channel.
The anchor - where a new period starts - can be shown (in this case in the top right corner).
The shown bands can be visualized by enabling Show Extremities in settings ( Rolling or Static method).
The script includes a background gradient color option for the bands, which only applies when using the Rolling method.
The indicator colors can be suggestive of the detected trend and are determined as follows:
Method Rolling: a gradient color between red and green indicates the trend; more green if the output is rising, suggesting an uptrend, and more red if it is decreasing, suggesting a downtrend.
Method Static: green if the slope of the line is positive, suggesting an uptrend, red if negative, suggesting a downtrend.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Anchor Type
When the Anchor Type is set to Periodic , the indicator will be reset when the "Anchor Period" changes, after which calculations will start again.
An anchored rolling line set at First Bar won't reset at a new session; it will continue calculating the linear regression from the first bar to the last; in other words, every bar is included in the calculation. This can be useful to detect potential long-term tops/bottoms.
Note that a linear regression needs at least two values for its calculation, which explains why you won't see a static line at the first bar of the session. The rolling linear regression will only show from the 3rd bar of the session since it also needs a previous value.
🔹 Rolling/Static
When Anchor Type is set at Periodic , a linear regression is calculated between the first bar of the chosen session and the current bar, aiming to find the line that best fits the dataset.
The example above shows the lines drawn during the session. The offered script, though, shows the last calculated point connected to the previous point when the Rolling method is chosen, while the Static method shows the latest line.
Note that linear regression needs at least two values, which explains why you won't see a static line at the first bar of the session. The rolling line will only show from the 3rd bar of the session since it also needs a previous value.
🔶 SETTINGS
Method: Indicator method used, with options: "Static" (straight line) / "Rolling" (rolling linear regression).
Anchor Type: "Periodic / First Bar" (the latter works only when "Method" is set to "Rolling").
Anchor Period: Only applicable when "Anchor Type" is set at "Periodic".

[DarkTrader] Intersection Level & PredictionLinear Regression Function Reference by @RicardoSantos :
The Intersection Level Calculation process identifies critical price levels where significant market reactions are expected. It starts by analyzing historical price action and technical indicators to pinpoint key support and resistance levels.
Price Forecast Min represents the predicted lowest price level that the asset might reach, while Price Forecast Max indicates the anticipated highest price level. These projections are calculated using statistical methods and historical price patterns, allowing traders to anticipate potential support and resistance zones. By providing these forecasts, traders can better manage their risk and set more informed entry and exit points based on projected price movements.
Example Of Prediction (Before & After)
Predicting Future Price Movements :
Once the intersection levels are identified, the indicator uses various predictive models to forecast what price might do next when it approaches these levels. Here’s a breakdown of how it achieves this :
Price Reaction Analysis: The indicator assesses how price has historically reacted to similar intersection levels. For instance, if price has reversed from a certain support level multiple times, the indicator can predict a potential reversal or bounce when price approaches that level again.
Trend Continuation or Reversal: It examines the strength of the current trend by analyzing momentum indicators, volume, and the angle or direction of trendlines. Based on this, it can predict whether price is likely to break through an intersection level, signaling trend continuation, or bounce off it, indicating a potential reversal.
Confluence of Factors: The prediction mechanism becomes more accurate when multiple factors converge at the same intersection level. For example, if a trendline, moving average, and support zone all intersect at the same price point, the indicator predicts a stronger likelihood of significant price movement.
Market Volatility and Momentum: The indicator also considers current market volatility and momentum in its prediction. For example, if price approaches an intersection level with high momentum, it might predict a breakout, whereas low momentum might suggest consolidation or a weaker price reaction.
In this indicator, I utilize Linear Regression to forecast price movements by analyzing historical data trends. Linear Regression involves fitting a straight line to past price data, enabling me to model and project future price levels based on identified trends. This method calculates a trend line that best represents the historical price behavior, providing a foundation for predicting future price points. By extending this trend line, I can estimate where prices might move, incorporating a range to account for potential deviations. This approach helps in identifying both minimum and maximum forecasted prices, offering valuable insights into potential market directions.
[DarkTrader] Liquidity Regression MapLinear Regression Function Reference by @RicardoSantos :
Liquidity Regression Map is an advanced indicator designed to assist traders in identifying key liquidity zones, reversals, and potential breakout areas within the market. By visualizing liquidity shifts and regression patterns, this tool provides a powerful visual guide to price movements that often go unnoticed by conventional indicators. The indicator's dynamic and adaptive approach helps traders better navigate complex market environments.
Purpose :
This indicator focuses on analyzing the behavior of liquidity in the market and mapping it out in a visual format on your TradingView charts. It provides a deeper understanding of where large clusters of liquidity exist, helping traders pinpoint potential areas where price is likely to react. It aims to highlight key liquidity zones and assess when price is likely to reverse or continue its trend, providing a comprehensive view of the market's internal structure.
Liquidity Regression Map supports multiple timeframes and multiple assets, providing traders with flexibility to analyze different market conditions. Whether you're analyzing short-term charts for scalping or higher timeframes for swing trades, the indicator adjusts its liquidity and regression calculations accordingly, ensuring accurate insights across all timeframes. Additionally, it is compatible with various asset classes, including stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies, and commodities, allowing you to apply the same powerful liquidity analysis across multiple markets for a unified trading strategy.
How It Works :
The indicator identifies liquidity zones by looking at the highs and lows of recent price action within a user-defined period, known as the lookback period. These zones represent areas where market participants are likely to have placed a significant number of stop orders or large positions, creating pockets of liquidity. The zones are visualized as levels on the chart, showing where the market is likely to react.
Next, the indicator performs a linear regression analysis on the price data. Linear regression helps smooth out the price action and gives an indication of the overall trend within the defined liquidity zone. This analysis is critical for determining the slope and direction of price movement, which provides insights into the market's momentum and strength in these liquidity areas.
A key feature of this indicator is its ability to detect liquidity swipes—sharp moves in price that sweep liquidity levels. When price approaches a liquidity zone and crosses it aggressively, the indicator highlights this as a swipe. Swipes often signal significant price reversals or trend continuation because they indicate that liquidity has been absorbed. The Akastra Liquidity Regression Map highlights these areas, helping traders anticipate where a reversal or continuation may occur.
As new price data comes in, the liquidity zones and regression lines dynamically adjust. This real-time update ensures that traders are always working with the most relevant and up-to-date liquidity information. The indicator recalculates the liquidity levels based on the recent highs and lows and repositions the regression lines accordingly. This makes it adaptive to both short-term volatility and long-term trends.
To make the analysis intuitive and easy to interpret, the liquidity levels are color-coded based on their strength and importance. Liquidity zones are shown using a gradient of colors, from weak liquidity (indicating potential minor reactions) to strong liquidity (where a significant price reaction is more likely). The heatmap visually communicates how liquidity is distributed across different levels and timeframes.
Liquidity Condition Filtering :
Another important aspect of the mechanism is the liquidity condition filtering, which only highlights significant liquidity shifts. The indicator evaluates if price movement meets certain thresholds, such as exceeding a 1.618 threshold for liquidity absorption or rejection . This filtering ensures that only the most relevant and impactful liquidity conditions are displayed, minimizing noise and false signals on the chart.
Finally, the indicator calculates and displays liquidity levels across multiple timeframes simultaneously, providing a more comprehensive view. For example, liquidity from a higher timeframe may interact with liquidity from a lower timeframe, providing traders with an overlapping view of where significant liquidity is concentrated. This multi-layer analysis helps to confirm trading setups and increases the probability of successful trades.
Adaptive LSMA Regression OscillatorOverview:
The Adaptive LSMA Regression Oscillator is an open-source technical analysis tool designed to reflect market price deviations from an adaptive least squares moving average (LSMA). The adaptive length of the LSMA changes dynamically based on the volatility of the market, making the indicator responsive to different market conditions.
Key Features:
Adaptive Length Adjustment : The base length of the LSMA is adjusted based on market volatility, measured by the Average True Range (ATR). The more volatile the market, the longer the adaptive length, and vice versa.
Oscillator : The indicator calculates the difference between the closing price and the adaptive LSMA. This difference is plotted as a histogram, showing whether prices are above or below the LSMA.
Color-Coded Histogram:
Positive values (where price is above the LSMA) are colored green.
Negative values (where price is below the LSMA) are colored red.
Debugging Information: The adaptive length is plotted for transparency, allowing users to see how the length changes based on the multiplier and ATR.
How It Works:
Inputs:
Base Length : This defines the starting length of the LSMA. It is adjusted based on market conditions.
Multiplier : A customizable multiplier is used to control how much the adaptive length responds to changes in volatility.
ATR Period : This determines the lookback period for the Average True Range calculation, a measure of market volatility.
Dynamic Adjustment:
The length of the LSMA is dynamically adjusted by multiplying the base length by a factor derived from ATR and the average close price.
This helps the indicator adapt to different market conditions, staying shorter during low volatility and longer during high volatility.
Example Use Cases:
Trend Analysis: By observing the oscillator, traders can see when prices deviate from a dynamically adjusted LSMA. This can be used to evaluate potential trend direction or changes in market behavior.
Volatility-Responsive Indicator: The adaptive length ensures that the indicator responds appropriately in both high and low volatility environments.
Magic Linear Regression Channel [MW]Introduction
The Magic Linear Regression Channel indicator provides users with a way to quickly include a linear regression channel ANYWHERE on their chart, in order to find channel breakouts and bounces within any time period. It uses a novel method that allows users to adjust the start and end period of the regression channel in order to quickly make adjustments faster, with fewer steps, and with more precision than with any other linear regression channel tool. It includes Fibonacci bands AND a horizontal mode in order for users to quickly define significant price levels based on the high, low, open, and close prices defined by the start period.
Settings
Start Time: This is initially MANUALLY SELECTED ON THE CHART when the indicator is first loaded.
End time: This is also initially MANUALLY SELECTED ON THE CHART when the indicator is first loaded.
Horizontal Line: This forces the baseline to be horizontal. The band distance is defined by the maximum price distance from the band.
Horizontal Line Type: This snaps the horizontal line to the close, high, low, or open price. Or, it can also use a regression calculation for the selected time period to define the y-position of the line.
Extend Line N Bars: How many bars to the left in which to extend the baseline and bands.
Show Baseline ONLY!!: Removes all lines except the baseline and it’s extension.
Add Half Band: Includes a band that is half the distance between the baseline and the top and bottom bands
Add Outer Fibonacci Band: Includes a band that is 1.618 (phi) times the default band distance
Add Inner Fibonacci Band - Upper: Includes a band that is 0.618 (1/phi) times the default band distance
Add Inner Fibonacci Band - Lower: Includes a band that is 0.382 (1 - 1/phi) times the default band distance
Calculations
This indicator uses the least squares approach for generating a straight regression line, which can be reviewed at Wikipedia’s “Simple Linear Regression” page. It sums all of the x-values, and y-values, as well as the sum of the product of corresponding x and y values, and the sum of the squares of the x-values. These values are used to calculate the slope and intercept using the following equations:
slope = (n * sum_xy - sum_x * sum_y) / (n * sum_xx - sum_x * sum_x)
And
intercept = (sum_y - slope * sum_x) / n
The slope and intercept are then used to generate the baseline and the corresponding bands using the user-selected offsets.
How to Use
When the Magic Linear Regression Channel indicator is first added to the chart, there will be a blue prompt behind the “Indicators, Metrics & Strategies” window. Close the window, then select a START POINT by clicking at a desired location on the chart. Next, you will be prompted to select an END POINT. The end point MUST be placed after the START POINT. At this time a channel will be generated. Once you’ve selected the START POINT and END POINT, you can adjust them by dragging them anywhere on the chart. Each adjustment will generate a new channel making it easier for you to quickly visualize and recognize any channel exits and bounces.
The Magic Linear Regression Channel indicator works great at identifying wave patterns. Place the start line at a top or bottom pivot point. Place the end line at the next respective top or bottom pivot. This will give you a complete wave form to work with. When price reaches a band and rejects, it can be a strong indication that price may move back to one of the bands in the channel. If price exits the channel with volume that supports the exit, it may be an indication of a breakout.
You can also use the horizontal mode to identify key levels, then add Fibonacci bands based on regression calculations for the given time period to provide more meaningful areas of support and resistance.
Other Usage Notes and Limitations
Occasionally, off-by-1 errors appear which makes the extended lines protrude at a slightly incorrect angle. This is a known bug and will be addressed in the next release.
It's important for traders to be aware of the limitations of any indicator and to use them as part of a broader, well-rounded trading strategy that includes risk management, fundamental analysis, and other tools that can help with reducing false signals, determining trend direction, and providing additional confirmation for a trade decision. Diversifying strategies and not relying solely on one type of indicator or analysis can help mitigate some of these risks.
Fibonacci Linear Regression Bands[Pinescriptlabs]🎯 This script is designed to draw Fibonacci-based linear regression bands.
It calculates and draws a linear regression channel and its Fibonacci levels across different time frames (5m, 15m, 30m, and 4h).
📊 How to use it?
🔍 Multidimensional Analysis
This strategy allows you to view the market from a multidimensional perspective, integrating long-term trends with short-term price action. By doing so, you can dynamically adjust your trades based on market developments, moving between time frames as needed. This not only enables you to capture large movements within the primary trend but also to exploit smaller fluctuations.
⏳ Time Frame Interaction
4-Hour Time Frame with Regression Channel: By using a regression channel on a broader time frame (like 4 hours), you gain a perspective on the dominant trend. This provides you with a solid foundation to evaluate the general market direction. In this scenario, you might deactivate the Fibonacci levels to avoid cluttering the visualization, focusing solely on the regression channel that shows you the prevailing trend.
Lower Time Frames with Regression and Fibonacci: You can activate the regression lines and Fibonacci levels on lower time frames (like 5m, 15m, or 30m) to obtain more precise signals. Here, Fibonacci levels will help you identify potential entry and exit points within the broader time frame.
🚩 Reversal Zone Identification
If the price breaks the regression channel on a lower time frame and approaches a key Fibonacci level, this could indicate a potential reversal.
🎯 Multiple Scenarios
By using different combinations of regression channels and Fibonacci levels across various time frames, you can create trading scenarios. For example, you could be in a long position on the 4-hour time frame while simultaneously trading within a lower time frame, taking advantage of bounces at Fibonacci levels.
🎯 Confluence Zone Identification
Zones where regression lines and Fibonacci levels coincide become areas of confluence. These zones represent points where a strong price reaction is likely to occur. If a Fibonacci retracement aligns with the upper or lower edge of a regression channel, this point acts as a significant support or resistance level.

FVG Price & Volume Graph [LuxAlgo]The FVG Price & Volume Graph tool plot recently detected fair value gaps relative to the volume traded within their area during their formation. This allows us to effectively visualize significant fair value gaps caused by high liquidity.
The indicator also returns levels from the fair value gaps areas average with the highest associated volume.
Do note that the indicator can consider the chart's visible range when being computed, which will recalculate the indicator when the chart's visible range changes.
🔶 USAGE
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) are core price action concepts occurring when the disparity between supply and demand is significant. Price has a tendency to come back to those areas and mitigating them, that is filling them.
The provided tools allow for effective visualization of both FVG's area's height as well as the volume originating from their creation, which is defined by the total traded volume located within the FVG during its creation. FVG's with more associated volume are displayed to the rightmost of the chart.
Users can determine the amount of most recent FVG's to display from the "Display Amount" setting. Disabling the "Consider Mitigation" setting will return mitigated FVGs in the plot, which can be useful to know where most FVGs were located.
We can use the area average of the FVGs with the most associated volume as potential support/resistance levels. Users can extend more FVG's averages by increasing the "Highest Volume Averages" setting.
🔹 Visualizing Volume/Price Relationships of FVG's
A linear regression is fit between FVG's areas average and their associated volume, with this linear regression helping us see where FVG's with specific volume might be located in the future based on existing FVG's.
Note that FVG's do not tend to exhibit linear relationships with their associated volume, the provided linear regression can give a general sense of tendency, but nothing necessarily accurate.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Intrabar Data TF
Given a formation of three candles causing an FVG, the volume traded within that FVG area is obtained by looking at the lower timeframe intrabar candles located within the intermediary candle of the formation. The volume of the intrabar candles located within the FVG areas is added up to obtain the associated volume of the FVG.
Using a lower "Intrabar Data TF" allows obtaining more precise volume results, at the cost of computation time and data availability (if there is a high difference between the "Intrabar Data TF" and the chart TF then less FVG can have their associated volume calculated due to Tradingview limitations).
🔹 Display
Users have access to multiple graphical settings affecting how the indicator is displayed.
The "Graph Resolution" setting determines the length of the X axis, with higher values returning more precise results on the location of FVGs over the X axis. Users can also control the number of labels displayed on the X-axis using the numerical input to the right of "Show X-Axis Labels".
Additionally, users can color FVG areas using a gradient relative to the size of the area, or the volume associated with the FVG.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Amount: Amount of most recent FVGs to display.

Composite Z-Score with Linear Regression Bands [UAlgo]The Composite Z-Score with Linear Regression Bands is a technical indicator designed to provide traders with a comprehensive analysis of price momentum, volatility, and volume. By combining multiple moving averages with slope analysis, volume/volatility compression-expansion metrics, and Z-Score calculations, this indicator aims to highlight potential breakout and breakdown points with high accuracy. The inclusion of linear regression bands further enhances the analysis by providing dynamic support and resistance levels, which adapt to market conditions. This makes the indicator particularly useful in identifying overbought/oversold conditions, volume squeezes, and the overall direction of the trend.
🔶 Key Features
Multi-Length Slope Calculation: The indicator uses multiple Hull Moving Averages (HMA) across various lengths to calculate slope angles, which are then converted into Z-Scores. This helps in capturing both short-term and long-term price momentum.
Volume/Volatility Composite Analysis: By calculating a composite value derived from both volume and volatility, the indicator identifies periods of compression (squeezes) and expansion, which are crucial for detecting potential breakout opportunities.
Linear Regression Bands: The inclusion of dynamic linear regression bands provides traders with adaptive support and resistance levels. These bands are enhanced by the composite value, which adjusts the band width based on market conditions, offering a clearer view of possible price reversals.
Overbought/Oversold Detection: The indicator highlights overbought and oversold conditions by comparing Z-Scores against the upper and lower bounds of the regression bands, which can signal potential reversal points.
Customizable Inputs: Users can customize key parameters such as the lengths of the moving averages, the regression band period, and the number of deviations used for the bands, allowing for flexibility in adapting the indicator to different market environments.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Z-Score Plots: The individual Z-Score plots represent the normalized slope of the Hull Moving Averages over different periods. Positive values indicate upward momentum, while negative values suggest downward momentum. The combined Z-Sum provides a broader view of the overall market momentum.
Composite Value: The composite value is a ratio of volume to volatility, which highlights periods of market compression and expansion. When the composite value rises, it suggests increasing market activity, often preceding a breakout.
Why are we calculating values for multiple lengths?
The Composite Z-Score with Linear Regression Bands indicator employs a multi-timeframe analysis by calculating Z-scores for various moving average lengths. This approach provides a more comprehensive view of market dynamics and helps to identify trends and potential reversals across different timeframes. By considering multiple lengths, we can:
Capture a broader range of market behaviors: Different moving average lengths capture different aspects of price movement. Shorter lengths are more sensitive to recent price changes, while longer lengths provide a smoother representation of the underlying trend.
Reduce the impact of noise: By combining Z-scores from multiple lengths, we can help to filter out some of the noise that can be present in shorter-term data and obtain a more robust signal.
Enhance the reliability of signals: When Z-scores from multiple lengths align, it can increase the confidence in the identified trend or potential reversal. This can help to reduce the likelihood of false signals.
In essence, calculating values for multiple lengths allows the indicator to provide a more nuanced and reliable assessment of market conditions, making it a valuable tool for traders and analysts.
Linear Regression Bands: The central line represents the linear regression of the Z-Sum, while the upper and lower bands represent the dynamic resistance and support levels, respectively. The deviation from the regression line indicates the strength of the current trend. When price moves beyond these bands, it may signal an overbought (above upper band) or oversold (below lower band) condition.
Volume/Volatility Squeeze: When the price moves between the regression bands and the volume/volatility-adjusted bands, the market is in a squeeze. Breakouts from this squeeze can lead to significant price moves, which are indicated by the filling of areas between the Z-Score plots and the bands.
Color Interpretation: The indicator uses color changes to make it easier to interpret the data. Teal colors generally indicate upward momentum or strong conditions, while red suggests downward momentum or weakening conditions. The intensity of the color reflects the strength of the signal.
Overbought/Oversold Signals: The indicator marks potential overbought and oversold conditions when Z-Scores cross above or below the upper and lower regression bands, respectively. These signals are crucial for identifying potential reversal points in the market.

Quadratic Kernel with Quadratic Divergence [PinescriptLabs]This indicator combines a quadratic kernel regression with adaptive deviation bands to provide a unique view of market trends.
Key Features:
**Customizable Parameters:**
- Regression Period: Adjusts the sensitivity of the central line (default 50).
- Time Deformation: Modifies the weight of recent vs. older data (default 1.0). Increasing the "Time Deformation" makes more recent data more relevant, while decreasing it gives more weight to older data in the regression calculation.
- Confidence Band Width: Controls the width of the bands (default 3.0). Determines how many standard deviations are added to or subtracted from the central line to form the confidence bands. The standard deviations are calculated as the difference between the central line and the closing prices. A higher confidence value will result in wider bands, indicating a broader range of expected price variation, while a lower confidence value will result in narrower bands, indicating a narrower range of expected price variation.
**How to Use the Indicator Based on Price Crossings with the Kernel Divergence Line?**
Short: We need a candle to cross and close below the Kernel Divergence Line (bullish), and at the same time, the quadratic channels must be in a Bearish state for confirmation. Once the entry is executed, our exit will be when the Divergence Line changes its color by at least two confirmation points, or the price crosses above, which nullifies the entry.
Long: We need a candle to cross and close above the Kernel Divergence Line (bearish), and at the same time, the quadratic channels must be in a Bullish state for confirmation. Once the entry is executed, our exit will be when the Divergence Line changes its color by at least two confirmation points, or the price crosses below, which nullifies the entry.
**How to Use the Indicator Based Solely on Kernel Divergence??**
We observe the Kernel Divergence line, which indicates bullish momentum while the price is declining, and we are looking for the Reversal point.
**Confirmation of the Reversal Point:** When the Kernel Divergence changes from bullish (green color) to bearish (red color), we look for the price at its lowest point to be below the first lower Quadratic channel or even outside the Quadratic channel. This signals a potential strong reversal.
How to Use the Indicator Based Solely on Quadratic Channels?
Use only confirmations of changes from Bullish to Bearish or vice versa. It is recommended to have at least three confirmation points in the same direction.

TrendMaster ProTrendMaster Pro: A Comprehensive Trend Analysis Tool for Long-Term Investors
TrendMaster Pro is an advanced technical indicator designed to provide long-term investors with a robust and comprehensive analysis of market trends. This sophisticated tool operates exclusively on daily timeframes, making it ideal for those focused on long-term investment strategies. By combining multiple analytical approaches, TrendMaster Pro offers investors a powerful means to assess trend quality and make informed decisions.
Automatic Trend Detection
At the heart of TrendMaster Pro lies its ability to automatically identify the most statistically significant trend. The indicator analyzes various timeframes ranging from 1000 to 5000 days, selecting the one that exhibits the highest correlation. This feature ensures that investors are always working with the most relevant trend data, eliminating the subjectivity often associated with manual trend identification.
The trend detection algorithm employs a regression analysis approach, evaluating approximately 80,000 different trend alternatives each day. Each potential trend is assigned a score based on criteria such as trend density, deviation from regression, and the number of price points near the trend's floor and ceiling. The trend with the highest score is then selected and displayed on the chart.
Comprehensive Scoring System
TrendMaster Pro employs a multi-faceted scoring system that evaluates four key aspects of a trend, providing a holistic view of its quality and potential. Each aspect is scored on a scale of 0 to 10, with the overall trend quality score being a weighted average of these individual scores.
1. Length Score
The Length Score measures the duration of the detected trend. Longer trends receive higher scores, reflecting increased reliability and significance. This score is calculated by normalizing the auto-selected period (which ranges from 1000 to 5000 days) to a scale of 5 to 10.
For example, if the auto-selected period is 3000 days, it would receive a score of around 7.5. This emphasizes the importance of long-term trends in investment decision-making, as they tend to be more stable and indicative of underlying market forces.
2. Strength Score
The Strength Score utilizes Pearson's Correlation Coefficient to assess trend strength. This statistical measure gauges the linear relationship between price and trend projection. A value closer to 1 indicates a strong positive correlation, reinforcing confidence in the trend direction based on historical price movements.
The indicator translates the Pearson's Correlation Coefficient into a score from 0 to 10. For instance, a correlation coefficient of 0.95 might translate to a Strength Score of 8, indicating a strong and reliable trend.
3. Performance Score
The Performance Score compares the asset's Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) to a chosen benchmark, typically a major index like the S&P 500. This score provides insight into how well the asset is performing relative to the broader market.
The CAGR is calculated using the formula: CAGR = (Ending Value / Beginning Value)^(1/n) - 1, where n is the number of years. The Performance Score is then determined by comparing this CAGR to the benchmark's CAGR over the same period. A higher score indicates outperformance relative to the benchmark.
4. Level Score
The Level Score evaluates the current price position within the trend channel. Lower prices within the channel receive higher scores, suggesting potential value or buying opportunities. This score helps identify possible entry points based on historical trend behavior.
For example, if the current price is near the lower boundary of the trend channel, it might receive a Level Score of 9, indicating a potentially attractive entry point.
Visual Representation
TrendMaster Pro provides a clear visual representation of the detected trend by displaying a regression channel on the chart. This channel consists of three lines: a middle line representing the main trend, and upper and lower lines representing standard deviations from the main trend.
The channel offers a quick visual reference for support and resistance levels, helping investors identify potential entry and exit points. The color and style of these lines can be customized to suit individual preferences.
Detailed Information Table
A comprehensive table presents all scores and relevant data, allowing for quick and easy interpretation of the trend analysis. This table includes:
The auto-selected trend length
The Pearson's Correlation Coefficient
The asset's CAGR and the benchmark's CAGR
Individual scores for Length, Strength, Performance, and Level
The overall Trend Quality Score
This table provides investors with a clear, at-a-glance summary of the trend's key characteristics and quality.
Practical Application
To use TrendMaster Pro effectively, investors should consider the following:
Focus on the overall Trend Quality Score as a primary indicator of trend strength and reliability.
Use the Length Score to gauge the trend's longevity and potential stability.
Pay attention to the Strength Score to assess how well the price action aligns with the identified trend.
Utilize the Performance Score to compare the asset's performance against the broader market.
Consider the Level Score when timing entries, looking for opportunities when prices are relatively low within the trend channel.
Use the visual trend channel as a guide for potential support and resistance levels.
Limitations and Considerations
While TrendMaster Pro offers powerful insights, it's important to remember that no indicator can predict future market movements with certainty. The tool should be used in conjunction with fundamental analysis and other market information.
Additionally, as the indicator is designed for daily charts and long-term analysis, it may not be suitable for short-term trading strategies. Users should also be aware that past performance does not guarantee future results, even with strong trend indications.
