Indeks Arus Uang / Money Flow Index (MFI)
Money Flow Index Divergences [UAlgo]🔶 Description:
This script aims providing traders with comprehensive insights into market dynamics. The indicator offers a multi-faceted approach to technical analysis, encompassing various features to enhance trading decision-making:
🔶Key Features:
Money Flow Index Oscillator Settings: Users can customize the length of the MFI oscillator and the confluence bar length to suit their trading preferences.
Gradient Color Visualization: The indicator utilizes gradient colors to visually represent the MFI oscillator, with colors shifting based on MFI values for enhanced clarity.
Confluence Area Calculation: A confluence area is calculated based on the specified length, providing additional context for MFI movements (Aims to provide longer-term information).
Divergence Detection: The script identifies bullish and bearish divergences by comparing price action with MFI oscillator movements, aiding traders in spotting potential trend reversals.
Customizable Sensitivity: Traders can adjust the sensitivity settings for divergence detection according to their trading strategies.
🔶Calculations:
MFI Calculation:
The script starts by calculating the Money Flow Index (MFI) using the ta.mfi() function, which takes the typical price (hlc3) and a length parameter (default set to 14). The MFI is normalized to a range between 0 and 1 for color gradient calculations.
Another MFI is calculated with a longer length (lengthConfluence, default set to 50) for confluence analysis. Similar to the MFI calculation, the highest and lowest MFI values within the confluence length are determined. The MFI values within the confluence length are normalized. The normalized MFI values are used to calculate the gradient color for the confluence area.
Gradient Color Calculations:
Two sets of RGB color values (redRGB, greenRGB, blueRGB) and (redRGB2, greenRGB2, blueRGB2) are defined to create a gradient color scheme for the MFI plot. The MFI value is normalized between the highest and lowest MFI values within the specified length. The normalized MFI value is then used to calculate the red, green, and blue components of the gradient color.
Plotting Confluence Area:
Two horizontal lines (upperArea and lowerArea) are plotted to highlight the confluence area.
The area between these lines is filled with the gradient color representing MFI confluence.
Divergence Calculations:
Bullish and bearish divergences are identified based on specific conditions related to the MFI and price action.
Bullish divergence occurs when the MFI makes a lower low while price makes a higher low.
Bearish divergence occurs when the MFI makes a higher high while price makes a lower high.
The sensitivity (Pivot calculation length) of divergence detection can be adjusted.
Overall, this script provides a comprehensive analysis of the Money Flow Index, including plotting the MFI with a gradient color scheme, identifying confluence areas, and detecting bullish and bearish divergences to aid traders in making informed decisions.

RSI/MFI Selling Sentiment IndexPsychological Sales Index (Psychological Sales Index)
Fundamental Indicators of Market Sentiment: The Importance of MFI and RSI
The two fundamental indicators that best reflect market sentiment are Money Flow Index (MFI) and Relative Strength Index (RSI). MFI is an indicator of the flow of funds in a market by combining price and volume, which is used to determine whether a stock is over-bought or over-selling. RSI is an indicator of the overheating of the market by measuring the rise and fall of prices, which is applied to the analysis of the relative strength of stock prices. These two indicators allow a quantitative assessment of the market's buying and selling pressure, which provides important information to understand the psychological state of market participants.
Using timing and fundamental metrics
In order to grasp the effective timing of the sale, in-depth consideration was needed on how to use basic indicators. MFI and RSI represent the buying and selling pressures of the market, respectively, but there is a limit to reflecting the overall trend of the market alone. As a result, a study on how to capture more accurate selling points was conducted by comprehensively considering technical analysis along with psychological factors of the market.
The importance of ADX integration and weighting
The "Average Regional Index (ADX)" was missing in the early version. ADX is an indicator of the strength of a trend, and has experienced a problem of less accuracy in selling sentiment indicators, especially in the upward trend. To address this, we incorporated ADX and adopted a method of adjusting the weights of MFI and RSI according to the values of ADX. A high ADX value implies the existence of a strong trend, in which case it is appropriate to reduce the influence of MFI and RSI to give more importance to the strength of the trend. Conversely, a low ADX value increases the influence of MFI and RSI, putting more weight on the psychological elements of the market.
How to use and interpret
The user can adjust several parameters. Key inputs include 'Length', 'Overbought Threshold', 'DI Length', and 'ADX Smoothing'. These parameters are used to set the calculation period, overselling threshold, DI length, and ADX smoothing period of the indicator, respectively. The script calculates the psychological selling index based on MFI, RSI, and ADX. The calculated index is normalized to values between 0 and 100 and is displayed in the graph. Values above 'Overbought Threshold' indicate an overselling state, which can be interpreted as a potential selling signal. This index allows investors to comprehensively evaluate the psychological state of the market and the strength of trends, which can be used to make more accurate selling decisions.
Best scalping toolExplanation:
This script is a comprehensive indicator that combines three essential technical analysis tools: Money Flow Index (MFI), Relative Strength Index (RSI), and Bollinger Bands (Bollinger %B). It provides insights into market conditions related to cross points of mfi,rsi and B%B.
A buy condition is created when the last candle RSI and MFI are under the bollinger bands, and then in the actual candle the RSI cross up the bollinger low band.
A sell condition is created when the last candle RSI and MFI are above the bollinger bands, and then in the actual candle the RSI cross down the bollinger high band.
Key Components:
MFI (Money Flow Index):
Utilizes the MFI indicator based on a specified length.
Overbought and oversold levels (80 and 20, respectively).
RSI (Relative Strength Index): (Adapted to the mfi chart)
Allows selection of different moving average types (SMA, EMA, etc.) for the RSI calculation.
RSI along with upper and lower bands (70 and 30).
Bollinger Bands:
Provides upper and lower Bollinger Bands based on the RSI's standard deviation.
Visualization Options:
Allows the user to choose between show the buy (green arrow) and the sell (red arrow) .
How It Works:
The indicator amalgamates these three powerful technical indicators to help traders identify potential entry or exit points. The green arrow its a buy signal and the red arrow is a sell signal.
By offering configurable settings and clear visual cues, this indicator assists traders in recognizing critical market conditions and potential trading opportunities.
Disclaimer: This indicator should be used as a tool in a broader trading strategy and not solely for making trading decisions. It's recommended to combine it with other technical or fundamental analysis for comprehensive trading decisions.

Machine Learning: MFI Heat Map [YinYangAlgorithms]Overview:
MFI Heat Maps are a visually appealing way to display the values of 29 different MFIs at the same time while being able to make sense of it. Each plot within the Indicator represents a different MFI value. The higher you get up, the longer the length that was used for this MFI. This Indicator also features the use of Machine Learning to help balance the MFI levels. It doesn’t solely rely upon Machine Learning but instead incorporates a growing length MFI averaged with the Machine Learning MFI at any given index.
For instance, say we are calculating the 10th plot from the bottom, the MFI would be an average of:
MFI(source, 11)
Machine Learning MFI at Index of 10
We do it this way as they both help smooth each other out without relying solely on just one calculation method.
Due to plot limitations, you are capped at 28 Plot Amounts within this indicator, but that is still quite a bit of information you can glean from a Heat Map.
The Machine Learning used in this indicator is of the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN). It uses a Fast and Slow MFI calculation then sorts through them over Machine Learning Length and calculates the differences between them. It then slices off KNN length to create our Max/Min Distances allotted. It adds the average between Fast and Slow MFIs to a Viable Distances array if their distances are within the KNN Min/Max distance. It then averages all distances in the Viable Distances array and returns the result.
The result of the KNN Function is saved to another ML Data array whose length is that of Plot Amount (Heat Map Size). This way each Index of the ML Data array can be indexed according to the Heat Map Size.
The Average of the ML Data array is the MFI line (white) that you’ll see plotted on the Indicator. There is also the SMA of the MFI Average (orange) which is likewise plotted. These plots allow you to visualize where the ML MFI is sitting and can potentially be useful for seeing when the MFI Average and SMA cross over and under each other.
We’ve heard many people talk highly of RSI, but sadly not too many even refer to MFI. MFI oftentimes may be overlooked, especially with new traders who may not even know what it is. Essentially MFI is an RSI but it also incorporates Volume into its calculations, which in our opinion leads to a more accurate reading; afterall, what is price movement without Volume.
Tutorial:
You may be thinking, this Indicator looks appealing to the eye, but how do I benefit from it trading wise?
Before we get into our visual examples, let's talk briefly about what makes Heat Maps in general a useful tool for trading. Heat Maps give us the ability to visualize and understand lots of data while removing the clutter. We can understand the data of 29 different MFIs without having to look at and decipher 29 different MFI plots. When you overlay too many MFI lines on top of each other, they can be very difficult to read and oftentimes end up actually hindering your Technical Analysis. For this reason, we have a simple solution to this problem; Heat Maps. This MFI Heat Map allows you to easily know (in a relative %) what the MFI level is for varying lengths. For Instance, the First (bottom) plot indexes an MFI of (K(0) (loop of Plot Amount) + Smoothing Length (default 1)) = 1. Since this is indexing (usually) a very low length, it will change much quicker. Whereas the Last (top) plot indexes an MFI of (K(27) (loop of Plot Amount) + Smoothing Length (default 1)) = 28. This is indexing a much higher length of MFI which results in the MFI the higher you go up in the Heat Map to move much slower.
Heat Maps give us the ability to see changes happening over multiple MFIs at the same time, which can be very useful for seeing shifts in MFI / Momentum. Remember, MFI incorporates Volume, so even if the price goes up a lot, if there was low volume, the MFI won’t move as much as an RSI would. However, likewise, if there is high volume but low price movement, the MFI will move slightly more than the RSI.
Heat Maps change color based on their MFI level. If the MFI is >= 90 it is HOT (red), if the MFI <= 9 it is COLD (teal, think of ICE). Green represents an MFI of 50-59 and Dark Blue represents an MFI of 40-49. Green and Dark blue are the most common colors as all the others are more ‘Extreme’ MFI levels.
Okay, time to get to the Examples :
Since there is so much going on in Heat Maps, we’ve decided to focus this tutorial to this specific area and talk about individual locations before talking about it as a whole.
If you refer to the example above where there are 2 white circles; these white circles are highlighting a key location you’ll be wanting to identify within your Heat Maps, many things are happening here:
The MFI crossed over the SMA (bullish).
The Heat Map started changing from mid/dark Blue (30-50 MFI) to Green (50-59 MFI) around the midline (the 50% dashed like).
The Lower levels of the Heat Map are turning Yellow/Orange/Red (60-100 MFI).
The Upper Levels of the Heat Map are still Light Blue - Green (10-50 MFI).
The 4 Key points above, all point towards potential Bullish Momentum changes. You’re likely wondering, but why? Let's discuss about each one in more specific detail:
1. The MFI crossed over the SMA (bullish): What this tells us is that the current MFI Average is now greater than its average over the last (default) 16 bars. This means there's been a large amount of Money Flow (Price and Volume) recently (subjectively based on the last (default) 16 average). This is one of the leading Bullish / Bearish signals you will see within this Indicator. You can enable Signals within the Settings and/or even add Alerts for when these crossings occur.
2. The Heat Map started changing from mid/dark Blue (30-50 MFI) to Green (50-59 MFI) around the midline (the 50% dashed like): This shows us that the index’s in the mid (if using all 28 heat map plots it would be at 14) has already received some of this momentum change. If you look at the second white circle (right), you’ll also notice the higher MFI plot indexes are also green. This is because since their length is long they still have some momentum and strength from the first white circle (left). Just because the first white circle failed in its bullish push, doesn’t mean it didn’t achieve momentum that would later on help to push the price up.
3. The Lower levels of the Heat Map are turning Yellow/Orange/Red (60-100 MFI): It occurred somewhat in the left white circle, but mainly in the right white circle. This shows us the MFI is very high on the lower lengths, this may lead to the current, middle and higher length MFIs following suit soon. Remember it has to work its way up, the higher levels can’t go red unless the lower levels go red first and the higher levels can also lag quite a bit behind and take awhile to catch up, this is normal, expected and meant to happen. Vice versa is also true with getting higher levels to go cold (light teal (think of ICE)).
4. The Upper Levels of the Heat Map are still Light Blue - Green (10-50 MFI): You might think at first that this is a bad thing, but it's not! Remember you want to be Fearful when others are Greedy and Greedy when others are Fearful! You don’t want to buy when the higher levels have a high MFI, you want to buy when you see the momentum pushing up in the lower MFI levels (getting yellow/orange/red in the low levels) while it is still Cold in the higher levels (BLUE OR GREEN, nothing higher than green as it is already slightly too high). There will be many times that it is Yellow or possibly Orange in the high levels and the bullish push still happens, but this is much more risky! The key to trading is to minimize risks while maximizing potential.
Hopefully now you’re getting an idea of how to spot potential bullish momentum changes, but what about bearish momentum changes? Technically they are the exact opposite, so we don’t need to go into as much detail, but lets still take a look at a few examples:
In the example above we marked the 3 times where it was displaying overly bullish characteristics. We marked the bullish momentum occurring with arrows. If you look closely at the start of the arrow to where it finishes, you’ll notice how the heat (HOT)(RED) works its way up from the lower levels to the higher levels. We then see the MFI to SMA cross under. In all 3 of these examples the heat made it all the way to the top of the chart. These are all very bearish signals that represent a bearish momentum movement that may occur soon.
Also, please note, the level the MFI is at DOES matter! That line isn’t there simply for you to see when there are crosses over and under. The MFI is considered to be Overbought when it is greater than 70 (the upper white dashed line, it is just formatted to be on a different scale cause there are 28 plots, but it represents 70). The MFI is considered to be Oversold when it is less than 30 (the lower white dashed line).
If we look to the left a little here where a big drop in price occurred shortly after our MFI and SMA crossed, would we have been able to identify it using the Heat Maps? Likely, No. There was some color change in the lower levels a few bars prior that went yellow/orange/red but before this cross happened they all went back to Dark Blue. In the middle section when the cross happened it was only Green and Yellow and in the upper section we are Blue. This would be a very risky trade to go on as the only real Bearish Indication was the MFI to SMA cross under. Remember, you want to reduce risk, you don’t want to simply trade on everytime the MFI and SMA cross each other or you’ll be getting yourself into many risky trades based on false signals.
Based on what you’ve learned above, can you see the signs that are indicating where this white circle may have potential for a bullish momentum change?
Now that we are more zoomed in, you may also be noticing there are colors to the price bars. This can be disabled in the settings, but just so you know what they mean, let’s zoom in a little more and talk about it.
We’ve condensed the Indicator a bit so you can see the bars better here. The colors that are displayed on these bars are the Heat Map value for your MFI (the white line in the Indicator). This way you can better see when the Price is Hot and Cold. As you may see while looking, the colors generally go from cold to hot when bullish momentum is happening and hot to cold when bearish momentum is happening. We don’t recommend solely looking at the bars as indicators to MFI momentum change, as seeing the Heat Map will give you much more data; however it can be nice to see the Heat Map projected on the bars rather than trying to eyeball it yourself or hover over each bar specifically to see their levels.
We will conclude our Tutorial here. Hopefully this has given you some insight to how useful Heat Maps can be and why it works well with a Machine Learning (KNN) Model applied to the MFI.
PLEASE NOTE: You can adjust the line width for the Heat Map within the settings. If you condense the Indicator a lot or have a small screen, likely use a length of 1-2. If you have it stretched out or a large screen, a length of 2-3 will work nice. You just don’t want to have the lines overlapping or it defeats the purpose of a Heat Map. Also, the bigger the linewidth, generally you’ll want to increase the Transparency within the Settings also as it can get quite bright and hurt your eyes over time.

HAPPY TRADING!
GKD-E MFI [Loxx]The Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-E MFI is an exit module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System."
█ GKD-E MFI
The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a technical analysis indicator that tracks the flow of money into and out of a security over a specified period of time. It is a momentum oscillator that ranges between 0 to 100 and is used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in a traded security. The MFI considers both price changes and trading volume, making it similar to the Relative Strength Index (RSI) but with the added dimension of volume. Typically, readings above 80 suggest that an asset may be overbought, indicating potential for a price decline, while readings below 20 suggest it may be oversold, indicating potential for a price increase.
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
8. Metamorphosis - a technical indicator that produces a compound signal from the combination of other GKD indicators*
*(not part of the NNFX algorithm)
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
What is an Metamorphosis indicator?
The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, or GKD-E slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v2.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
6. GKD-M - Metamorphosis module (Metamorphosis, Number 8 in the NNFX algorithm, but not part of the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data to A backtest module wherein the various components of the GKD system are combined to create a trading signal.
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Multi-Ticker CC Backtest
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Advance Trend Pressure as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: uf2018
Continuation: Coppock Curve
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Metamorphosis: Baseline Optimizer
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, GKD-M, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD system.

GKD-C Alpha Trend [Loxx]The Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C Alpha Trend is a confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System."
█ GKD-C Alpha Trend
Alpha Trend first determines the average true range (ATR) and computes up and down trends based on the ATR. It then evaluates conditions based on relative strength index (RSI) or money flow index (MFI) to define a value named 'Alpha'. The algorithm then compares the current 'Alpha' value to its previous values to determine potential buy or sell signals. Finally, it counts the number of bars (or periods) since the last buy or sell signal was triggered and uses this information generate signals.

Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
8. Metamorphosis - a technical indicator that produces a compound signal from the combination of other GKD indicators*
*(not part of the NNFX algorithm)
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
What is an Metamorphosis indicator?
The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, or GKD-E slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?

4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
6. GKD-M - Metamorphosis module (Metamorphosis, Number 8 in the NNFX algorithm, but not part of the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data to A backtest module wherein the various components of the GKD system are combined to create a trading signal.
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.

Gradient Money Flow Divergence DetectorThe "Gradient Money Flow Divergence Detector" indicator has several use cases for traders. Let's explore the main use cases:
1. Money Flow Analysis : The primary purpose of this indicator is to analyze money flow in a particular asset. The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a momentum indicator that uses price and volume data to assess the buying and selling pressure in a market. Traders can use the MFI to identify overbought and oversold conditions, potential trend reversals, and divergences between the MFI and price movement.
2. Divergence Detection : The indicator incorporates a divergence detection mechanism for multiple timeframes (micro, sub-mid, mid, and macro). Divergence occurs when the price movement and an indicator (MFI in this case) move in opposite directions, signaling a potential shift in the price trend. Traders can use divergences to anticipate trend reversals or trend continuation.
3. Multiple Lookback Analysis : The indicator allows traders to assess divergences and money flow trends across various time horizons by providing divergence detection for different lengths. This can help traders identify confluence areas where divergences align on multiple timeframes, strengthening the potential signal.
4. Overbought and Oversold Conditions : The indicator plots horizontal lines at MFI levels of 20, 50, and 80. These levels can be used to identify overbought (MFI above 80) and oversold (MFI below 20) conditions. Traders may look for potential reversal signals when the MFI reaches extreme levels.
5. Confirmation of Price Trends : The indicator's color gradient visually represents the MFI value, which can help traders confirm the strength of a prevailing price trend. For example, an uptrend with a consistently high MFI might suggest strong buying pressure, reinforcing the bullish bias.
6. Fine-Tuning Divergence Signals : Traders can adjust the parameters of divergence detection (e.g., pivot points, rangeUpper, rangeLower) to fine-tune the sensitivity of the divergence signals. This allows for greater customization based on individual trading preferences.
7. Combining with Other Indicators : The indicator can be used in combination with other technical indicators or price action analysis to strengthen trading decisions. For example, traders may look for divergences in conjunction with support and resistance levels or chart patterns to increase the probability of successful trades.
8. Trend Reversal Confirmation : When a divergence is detected, it may indicate a potential trend reversal. Traders can use other confirmation signals (e.g., candlestick patterns, trendline breaks) to validate the reversal before making trading decisions.
Remember that no single indicator should be used in isolation, and it's essential to use the indicator in combination with other confirmations such as support and resistance, and analysis methods for more robust trading strategies. Additionally, thorough backtesting and practice in a demo environment are recommended before using the indicator in live trading.
Discrete Fourier Transformed Money Flow IndexThe Discrete Fourier Transform Money Flow Index indicator integrates the Money Flow Index (MFI) with Discrete Fourier Transform (credit to author wbburgin - May 26 2023 ) smoothing to offer a refined and smoothed depiction of the MFI's underlying trend. The MFI is calculated using the formula: MFI = 100 - (100 / (1 + MR)), where a high MFI value indicates robust buying pressure (signaling an overbought condition), and a low MFI value indicates substantial selling pressure (signaling an oversold condition).
Why is the DFT and MFI combined?
The aim of this combination between DFT and MFI is to effectively filter out short-term fluctuations and noise, enabling a clearer assessment of the overall trend. This smoothing process enhances the reliability of the MFI by emphasizing dominant and sustained buying or selling pressures. This script executes a full DFT but only uses filtering from one frequency component. The choice to focus on the magnitude at index 0 is significant as it captures the dominant or fundamental frequency in the data. By analyzing this primary cyclic behavior, we can identify recurring patterns and potential turning points more easily. This streamlined approach simplifies interpretation and enhances efficiency by reducing complexity associated with multiple frequency components. Overall, focusing on the dominant frequency and applying it to the MFI provides a concise and actionable assessment of the underlying data.
Note: The FMFI indicator provides both smoothed and non-smoothed versions of the MFI, with the option to toggle the original non-smoothed MFI on or off in the settings.
Application
FMFI functions as a trend-following indicator. Bullish trends are denoted by the color white, while bearish trends are represented by the color purple. Circles plotted on the FMFI indicate regular bull and bear signals. Additionally, red arrows indicate a strong negative trend, while green arrows indicate a strong positive trend. These arrows are calculated based on the presence of regular bull and bear signals within overbought and oversold zones. To enhance its effectiveness, it is recommended to combine this indicator with other complementary technical analysis tools and integrate it into a comprehensive trading strategy. Traders are encouraged to explore a wide range of settings and timeframes to align the indicator with their unique trading preferences and adapt it to the current market conditions. By doing so, traders can optimize the indicator's performance and increase their potential for successful trading outcomes.
Utility
Traders and investors can employ this indicator to enhance their trend-following strategies. The white-colored components of the FMFI can help identify potential buying zones, while the purple-colored components can assist in identifying potential selling points. The red and green arrows can be used to pinpoint moments of strong bull or bear momentum, allowing traders to position themselves advantageously in their trading activities. Please note that future performance of any trading strategy is fundamentally unknowable, and past results do not guarantee future performance.
adaptive_mfi
█ Description
Money flow an indexed value-based price and volume for the specified input length (lookback period). In summary, a momentum indicator that attempt to measure the flow of money (identify buying/selling pressure) through the asset within a specified period of time. MFI will oscillate between 0 to 100, oftentimes comprehend the analysis with oversold (20) or overbought (80) level, and a divergence that spotted to signaling a further change in trend/direction. As similar to many other indicators that use length (commonly a fixed value) as an input parameter, can be optimized by applied an adaptive filter (Ehlers), to solve the measuring cycle period. In this indicator, the adaptive measure of dominant cycle as an input parameter for the lookback period/n, will be applied to the money flow index.
█ Money Flow Index
mfi = 100 - (100/(1 + money_flow_ratio))
where:
n = int(dominant_cycle)
money_flow_ratio = n positive raw_money_flow / n negative raw_money_flow
raw_money_flow = typical_price * volume
typical_price = hlc3
█ Feature
The indicator will have a specified default parameter of: hp_period = 48; source = ohlc4
Horizontal line indicates positive/negative money flow
MFI Color Scheme: Solid; Normalized

RSI-MFI Machine Learning [ Manhattan distance ]The RSI-MFI Machine Learning Indicator is a technical analysis tool that combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Money Flow Index (MFI) indicators with the Manhattan distance metric.
It aims to provide insights into potential trade setups by leveraging machine learning principles and calculating distances between current and historical data points.
The indicator starts by calculating the RSI and MFI values based on the specified periods for each indicator.
The RSI measures the strength and speed of price movements, while the MFI evaluates the inflow and outflow of money in the market.
By combining these two indicators, the indicator captures both price momentum and money flow dynamics.
To apply machine learning principles , the indicator utilizes the Manhattan distance metric to quantify the similarity or dissimilarity between different data points.
The Manhattan distance is calculated by taking the absolute differences between corresponding RSI and MFI values of the current point and historical points.
Next, the indicator determines the nearest neighbors based on the calculated Manhattan distances.
The number of nearest neighbors is determined by the square root of the specified count of neighbors.
By identifying similar patterns and behaviors in the historical data, the indicator aims to uncover potential trade opportunities.
Trade signals are generated based on the calculated distances. The indicator compares each distance with the maximum distance encountered so far.
If a new maximum distance is found, it updates the value and considers the corresponding direction as a potential trade signal. The trade signals are stored in an array for further analysis.
Furthermore, the indicator considers the price action and a calculated regression line to differentiate between long and short trade signals.
Long trade signals are identified when the closing price is above the regression line, indicating a potentially bullish setup.
Short trade signals are identified when the closing price is below the regression line, indicating a potentially bearish setup.
The RSI-MFI Machine Learning Indicator visualizes the regression line on the price chart and labels the bars accordingly. It highlights the regression line with different colors based on the trade signals, making it easier for traders to identify potential entry or exit points.
Traders can use the RSI-MFI Machine Learning Indicator as a tool to analyze price movements, evaluate market conditions based on RSI and MFI, leverage machine learning concepts to find similar patterns, and make informed trading decisions.
D-BoT Alpha Volume SpikeHello traders, Let me explain the code and provide an example of how to trade using this indicator.
The code you provided is a Pine Script indicator that combines multiple technical indicators, such as Supertrend, ADX, RSI, and MFI, to generate buy and sell signals. Here's a breakdown of the code:
User Settings:
The user can adjust parameters like overbought_limit, oversold_limit, volume_multiplier, volume_ma_length, volume_spike_multiple, lookback_period, and use_extremities_confirmation according to their preference.
Calculate Supertrend:
The Supertrend indicator is calculated using three different ATR lengths (supertrend_atr_period1, supertrend_atr_period2, supertrend_atr_period3) and corresponding factors (supertrend_factor1, supertrend_factor2, supertrend_factor3).
The supertrend_value1, supertrend_value2, and supertrend_value3 represent the Supertrend values, while trend_direction1, trend_direction2, and trend_direction3 indicate the trend direction (negative for downtrend, positive for uptrend).
Candle calculations:
The high and low values are checked to identify bullish and bearish candles based on specific conditions.
Volume Spikes:
Volume spikes are detected by comparing the current volume with a median volume over a specified lookback period.
If the volume exceeds a certain multiple of the median volume and the DI+ value is greater than the DI- value, an "up" signal is generated. Similarly, if the DI- value is greater than the DI+ value, a "down" signal is generated.
Additional Filters (RSI and MFI):
Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Money Flow Index (MFI) are used as additional filters.
The RSI and MFI parameters can be adjusted according to the user's preference.
The signals generated by the volume spikes are filtered based on RSI and MFI conditions.
Plotting:
The indicator plots shapes (triangles) to represent buy and sell signals.
The Supertrend lines are plotted using different colors and transparency levels based on the distance from the current price.
The "bodyMiddle" plot is used for filling the area between the Supertrend lines.
Example Trade Scenario:
Let's consider an example trade scenario using this indicator:
When the indicator generates an "up" signal (trendBuy = true), indicating a potential bullish trend, and all the confirmation conditions (RSI, MFI, Supertrend) are met, you can consider opening a long position.
Conversely, when the indicator generates a "down" signal (trendSell = true), indicating a potential bearish trend, and all the confirmation conditions are met, you can consider opening a short position.
Remember, this is just an example, and it's crucial to perform thorough analysis and consider other factors before making trading decisions. It's recommended to backtest the strategy, assess risk management, and apply appropriate position sizing techniques.
Please note that the code provided is a simplified version, and there might be additional factors and considerations specific to your trading strategy that are not included in this code. *******"I have also reviewed the following indicators, and the volume calculation approaches of my friends have been very helpful in creating this indicator: "Volume Spikes " © tradeforopp and "Volume Spikes & Growing Volume Signals With Alerts & Scanner" © FriendOfTheTrend."*******
AlphaTrend - ScreenerScreener version of AlphaTrend indicator:
BUY / LONG when AlphaTrend line crosses above its 2 bars offsetted line, and there would be a green filling between them
SELL / SHORT when AlphaTrend line crosses below its 2 bars offsetted line, and filling would be red then.
Default values:
Coefficient: 1, which is the factor of the trailing ATR value
Common Period: 14, which is the length of ATR MFI and RSI
AlphaTrend default uses MFI in the calculation, and MFI (Money Flow Index) needs the volume data of the chart.
If your chart doesn't have the volume data, please select the "Change Calculation" option to use RSI instead of MFI.
Screener Panel:
You can explore 20 different and user-defined tickers, which can be changed from the SETTINGS (shares, crypto, commodities...) on this screener version.
The screener panel shows up right after the bars on the right side of the chart.
Tickers seen in green are the ones that are in an uptrend, according to AlphaTrend.
The ones that appear in red are those in the SELL signal, in a downtrend.
The numbers in front of each Ticker indicate how many bars passed after the last BUY or SELL signal of AlphaTrend.
For example, according to the indicator, when BTCUSDT appears in (3) and in GREEN, Bitcoin switched to BUY signal 3 bars ago.
Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) of Money Flow Index (MFI)"He who does not know how to make predictions and makes light of his opponents, underestimating his ability, will certainly be defeated by them."
(Sun Tzu - The Art of War)
▮ Introduction
The Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) is a technical analysis indicator that uses the difference between the current closing price and the high or low price over a specific time period to measure price momentum.
On the other hand, the Money Flow Index (MFI) is an indicator that uses volume and price to measure buying and selling pressure.
When these two indicators are combined, they can provide a more comprehensive view of price direction and market strength.
▮ Improvements
By combining SMI with MFI, we can gain even more insights into the market. One way to do this is to use the MFI as an input to the SMI, rather than just using price.
This means we are measuring momentum based on buying and selling pressure rather than just price.
Another way to improve this indicator is to adjust the periods to suit your specific trading needs.
▮ What to look
When using the SMI MFI indicator, there are a few things to look out for.
First, look at the SMI signal line.
When the line crosses above -40, it is considered a buy signal, while the crossing below +40 is considered a sell signal.
Also, pay attention to divergences between the SMI MFI and the price.
If price is rising but the SMI MFI is showing negative divergence, it could indicate that momentum is waning and a reversal could be in the offing.
Likewise, if price is falling but the SMI MFI is showing positive divergence, this could indicate that momentum is building and a reversal could also be in the offing.
In the examples below, I show the use in conjunction with the price SMI, in which the MFI SMI helps to anticipate divergences:
In summary, the SMI MFI is a useful indicator that can provide valuable insights into market direction and price strength.
By adjusting the timeframes and paying attention to divergences and signal line crossovers, traders can use it as part of a broader trading strategy.
However, remember that no indicator is a magic bullet and should always be used in conjunction with other analytics and indicators to make informed trading decisions.
Direction Analysis WavesDescription
It is an indicator that aims to provide information about the direction of the trend, the basis of which is the CCI, CMO and MFI indices.
Symbols on the indicator are for informational purposes. Information about colors and symbols is given below.
Blue Wave: Graphical representation of the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) curve.
Green/Red Wave: Graphical representation of the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) curve. This curve turns green when it rises above zero, and turns red when it falls below zero.
Yellow Wave: Graphical representation of the Money Flow Index (MFI) curve.
Blue Line: CCI line.
Green/Red Cross: CCI line shows green cross on red cross below 0 value.
Warning
As a result, this indicator should be expected to give an idea of the trend direction, not a trading signal.
Version
v1.0
Dollar Cost VolumeWhen asset prices rise or fall greatly it can be difficult to measure the interest levels across time periods. Think of assets like BBBY, GME, CVNA, BTCUSD, etc... :)
This simple visualization multiplies a pricing option by the volume to give a "dollar cost" volume over time. With this, you can more easily measure interest levels from "smart money" ("big money") and eliminate some of the noise from large volume moves when prices are very low (or small volume moves when prices are very high).

Money Flow Index by MI7This indicator will show you how to buy and sell with 3 line red yellow and green
Fusion Oscillator (COMBINED RSI+MFI+MACD+CCI+TSI+RVI)The Fusion Oscillator aggregates several extremely-similar directional oscillators (RSI, MFI, MACD, CCI, TSI, RVI) into one average to visualize indicator agreement. To do this, I normalized several oscillators between to ensure equal weight.
The white line is the directional oscillator . The yellow line (turned off) is the nondirectional oscillator - namely, the ADX and ATR - this determines the buy/sell signals in conjunction with overbought/oversold levels for the directional oscillator.
The overall length is the sensitivity of the oscillator, not the lookback period. The maximum that works on the default settings is 3. Higher means less sensitive and more accurate.
I hope you all find this useful!
