PCP Arbitrage Monitor (Math by Thomas)Live monitor for Put–Call Parity (C + PV(K) = P + S) showing drift, arbitrage direction, and opportunity strength.
The PCP Arbitrage Monitor helps traders visualize and quantify deviations from the Put–Call Parity (PCP) relationship:
𝐶+𝐾𝑒−𝑟𝑇 = 𝑃+𝑆
When this equation drifts, it indicates a potential arbitrage opportunity between call, put, and underlying (spot or future).
This indicator plots the left-hand side (LHS) and right-hand side (RHS) of the PCP equation on your chart, computes the drift, and automatically highlights and displays actionable trade combinations when the deviation exceeds a set threshold.
⚙️ How It Works
Inputs
Call & Put Symbols – Select matching call and put options (same strike & expiry).
Strike (K) – The strike price for those options.
Expiry (UTC) – Option expiry date/time (used to calculate 𝑇 and PV(K)).
Risk-free Rate (r) – Annualized rate used for discounting the strike.
Lot Size / Tick Value – Used to calculate profit in INR.
Arbitrage Threshold – Minimum drift (in points) to trigger signals (default 200).
Displayed Data
LHS = C + PV(K) (Call + discounted Strike)
RHS = P + S (Put + Spot/Future)
Drift = LHS – RHS

📈 How to Use
Open a NIFTY Spot or Futures chart (works on both).
Enter the exact option symbols (e.g., NSE:NIFTY24DEC21900CE and NSE:NIFTY24DEC21900PE).
Adjust Strike (K) and Expiry to match those options.
Observe:
The green/red background highlights large deviations (≥ threshold).
The Action cell displays the arbitrage combination and expected profit.
A drift beyond the threshold suggests a potential risk-free arbitrage if executed simultaneously across all legs.
Hold positions till expiry if margin allows; the profit is theoretically locked in.
💡 Tips
Works on both Spot and Futures charts — the script auto-uses the chart’s close as 𝑆
Set smoothing to 0 to see raw parity values.
Adjust threshold based on costs and margin — e.g., 150–200 points for NIFTY is practical.
Only valid when options are European (no early exercise risk).
Ensure both option symbols are liquid and from the same expiry.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This tool is for educational and analytical purposes.
Real arbitrage execution depends on liquidity, bid-ask spread, slippage, and margin requirements.
Always validate prices with your broker before trading.

0DTE Credit Spreads Indicator0DTE Credit Spreads Indicator
Summary
An intraday, volatility-driven indicator that suggests 0dte credit-spread management levels. It combines a market structure path with an alternate momentum-driven early-entry path to let traders either capture clean session breakouts or participate earlier when short-term momentum strongly favors one side. This script was specifically designed to be used on the 15 minute time frame tracking SPX. The signals produced are either a put credit spread (pcs) or call credit spread (ccs). It is strongly recommended to have a firm understanding of how credit spreads and options in general operate. Once a signal it triggered, the script will also show a recommended credit to target. You will then need to select option strikes that will achieve that credit. A confidence level is generated as well. This is determined by historical data and probability of success of closing out of the money (OTM).
Two deterministic entry methods-
Session-Structure
The script measures the instrument’s early-session price action. It derives a range and midpoint used as the session reference. When price clearly confirms movement beyond this early-session structure, the script generates the session-structure trade. This path is used when no earlier momentum entry exists.
Momentum Early-Entry (override)
Independently, the script monitors a short-term momentum oscillator on a higher intraday timeframe. If that momentum condition triggers during the opening window, an early-entry candidate is recorded at the price at which the momentum condition occurred. When the script subsequently pushes a trade for that day it uses the recorded early-entry price as the official entry. This path is intended to capture faster moves while maintaining disciplined TP/SL construction.
How the script chooses between the two-
Priority is deterministic: if a momentum early-entry candidate was recorded during the opening window it is used; otherwise the session-structure breakout path is used. Settings allow enabling/disabling early-entry and controlling whether both sides can trigger in one session.
TP/SL — how levels are formed-
Take Profit (TP): user-controlled TP% determines a live TP line computed from the entry toward the session reference. For early-entry trades the script guarantees a volatility-based minimum TP (an ATR-derived floor) so targets remain realistic relative to short-term volatility. The TP line updates instantly as the TP% dropdown changes.
Stop Loss (SL): non-early trades: opening-range midpoint. Early-entry trades: SL is computed relative to the recorded early-entry price using ATR scaling plus a small buffer — this anchors risk to the entry and to intraday volatility rather than to the opening midpoint.
Informational P/L simulation-
The on-chart aggregation table is an informational simulation, modeling credit-spread outcomes such as partial TP closes and remainder evaluation (EOD vs SL-cross). It uses a volatility-to-credit mapping to estimate typical credit amounts. It is not a TradingView strategy — it’s a simulator to help evaluate the on-chart rules.
Why it’s different-
Two-path session-aware workflow lets traders either wait for a structured breakout or participate earlier when momentum is decisive.
TP/SL combine live user control with volatility-aware floors and ATR-scaled stops to better align targets and risk with actual market movement.
Execution-aware simulation models partial exits and intraday SL-cross behavior that ordinary long/short strategies don’t represent for credit-spread sellers.
Visible inputs & limitations
Users can toggle early-entry, adjust TP% live, show/hide TP/SL lines, control duplicate-signal behavior, and create alerts. The simulation is approximate and intended for informational use; it does not replace options-specific historical fills and full options backtesting.
Audience & risk
Invite-only. For day traders / 0DTE options sellers. Trading is risky — use this for decision support and perform independent testing.
ReqoverAI Indicator Zero LagPrecision-Engineered AI tool for Multi-Asset Trading Strategies. This AI tool is designed to work for all time frames and asset classes (like Stocks, Commodities, Forex, Crypto and other Digital Assets)
Gamma Exposure Levels by OMG (Oh My Gamma)OMG (Oh My Gamma) - Daily GEX Levels
An operational framework for Gamma analysis with daily data.
Indicator's Purpose & Demo Data
This indicator plots key strategic levels derived from Gamma Exposure (GEX) analysis. It showcases the operational logic of OhMyGamma analytical engine.
IMPORTANT: The levels plotted by this public script are based on a past date's snapshot for demonstration purposes. They are not valid for live trading and will not update automatically.
The real edge comes from using the fresh data structure provided daily.
How to Read the Levels
This indicator is designed to provide actionable intelligence, not just data. Here's how to read it:
The Levels: Each line represents a key strategic zone (Zero Gamma, Call/Put Walls, etc.) where a market reaction is statistically probable due to dealer hedging flows.
Line Thickness = Strategic Importance: The thickness of each line directly corresponds to its strategic rating. Thicker, solid lines represent higher-conviction zones.
Labels & Tooltips: Hover over a level's label on your chart to see its full description, confluences, and strategic rating.
Pro Tip: The Power of Confluence
This indicator is not a standalone "system". It's an institutional-grade intelligence layer. Its predictive power increases exponentially when used to find confluence with your own analysis.
The highest-probability trades occur when a key Gamma level aligns with:
Price Action: Key support/resistance zones, order blocks, or liquidity pools.
Volumetric Indicators: High/Low Volume Nodes (HVN/LVN) from Volume Profile, VWAP, and Anchored VWAP.
Use these levels to confirm your setups and gain the conviction to act.

Volatility Cone Forecaster Lite [PhenLabs]📊 Volatility Cone Forecaster
Version: PineScript™v6
📌Description
The Volatility Cone Forecaster (VCF) is an advanced indicator designed to provide traders with a forward-looking perspective on market volatility. Instead of merely measuring past price fluctuations, the VCF analyzes historical volatility data to project a statistical “cone” that outlines a probable range for future price movements. Its core purpose is to contextualize the current market environment, helping traders to anticipate potential shifts from low to high volatility periods (and vice versa). By identifying whether volatility is expanding or contracting relative to historical norms, it solves the critical problem of preparing for significant market moves before they happen, offering a clear statistical edge in strategy development.
This indicator moves beyond lagging measures by employing percentile analysis to rank the current volatility state. This allows traders to understand not just what volatility is, but how significant it is compared to the recent past. The VCF is built for discretionary traders, system developers, and options strategists who need a sophisticated understanding of market dynamics to manage risk and identify high-probability opportunities.
🚀Points of Innovation
Forward-Looking Volatility Projection: Unlike standard indicators that only show historical data, the VCF projects a statistical cone of future volatility.
Percentile-Based Regime Analysis: Ranks current volatility against historical data (e.g., 90th, 75th percentiles) to provide objective context.
Automated Regime Detection: Automatically identifies and labels the market as being in a ‘High’, ‘Low’, or ‘Normal’ volatility regime.
Expansion & Contraction Signals: Clearly indicates whether volatility is currently increasing or decreasing, signaling shifts in market energy.
Integrated ATR Comparison: Plots an ATR-equivalent volatility measure to offer a familiar point of reference against the statistical model.
Dynamic Visual Modeling: The cone visualization directly on the price chart provides an intuitive guide for future expected price ranges.
🔧Core Components
Realized Volatility Engine: Calculates historical volatility using log returns over multiple user-defined lookback periods (short, medium, long) for a comprehensive view.
Percentile Analysis Module: A custom function calculates the 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 90th percentiles of volatility over a long-term lookback (e.g., 252 days).
Forward Projection Calculator: Uses the calculated volatility percentiles to mathematically derive and draw the upper and lower bounds of the future volatility cone.
Volatility Regime Classifier: A logic-based system that compares current volatility to the historical percentile bands to classify the market state.
🔥Key Features
Customizable Lookback Periods: Adjust short, medium, and long-term lookbacks to fine-tune the indicator’s sensitivity to different market cycles.
Configurable Forward Projection: Set the number of days for the forward cone projection to align with your specific trading horizon.
Interactive Display Options: Toggle visibility for percentile labels, ATR levels, and regime coloring to customize the chart display.
Data-Rich Information Table: A clean, on-screen table displays all key metrics, including current volatility, percentile rank, regime, and trend.
Built-in Alert Conditions: Set alerts for critical events like volatility crossing the 90th percentile, dropping below the 10th, or switching between expansion and contraction.
🎨Visualization
Volatility Cone: Shaded bands projected onto the future price axis, representing the probable price range at different statistical confidence levels (e.g., 75th-90th percentile).
Color-Coded Volatility Line: The primary volatility plot dynamically changes color (e.g., red for high, green for low) to reflect the current volatility regime, providing instant context.
Historical Percentile Bands: Horizontal lines plotted across the indicator pane mark the key percentile levels, showing how current volatility compares to the past.
On-Chart Labels: Clear labels automatically display the current volatility reading, its percentile rank, the detected regime, and trend (Expanding/Contracting).
📖Usage Guidelines
Setting Categories
Short-term Lookback: Default: 10, Range: 5-50. Controls the most sensitive volatility calculation.
Medium-term Lookback: Default: 21, Range: 10-100. The primary input for the current volatility reading.
Long-term Lookback: Default: 63, Range: 30-252. Provides a baseline for long-term market character.
Percentile Lookback Period: Default: 252, Range: 100-1000. Defines the period for historical ranking; 252 represents one trading year.
Forward Projection Days: Default: 21, Range: 5-63. Determines how many bars into the future the cone is projected.
✅Best Use Cases
Breakout Trading: Identify periods of deep consolidation when volatility falls to low percentile ranks (e.g., below 25th) and begins to expand, signaling a potential breakout.
Mean Reversion Strategies: Target trades when volatility reaches extreme high percentile ranks (e.g., above 90th), as these periods are often unsustainable and lead to contraction.
Options Strategy: Use the cone’s projected upper and lower bounds to help select strike prices for strategies like iron condors or straddles.
Risk Management: Widen stop-losses and reduce position sizes when the indicator signals a transition into a ‘High’ volatility regime.
⚠️Limitations
Probabilistic, Not Predictive: The cone represents a statistical probability, not a guarantee of future price action. Extreme, unpredictable news events can drive prices outside the cone.
Lagging by Nature: All calculations are based on historical price data, meaning the indicator will always react to, not pre-empt, market changes.
Non-Directional: The indicator forecasts the *magnitude* of future moves, not the *direction*. It should be paired with a directional analysis tool.
💡What Makes This Unique
Forward Projection: Its primary distinction is projecting a data-driven, statistical forecast of future volatility, which standard oscillators do not do.
Contextual Analysis: It doesn’t just provide a number; it tells you what that number means through percentile ranking and automated regime classification.
🔬How It Works
1. Data Calculation:
The indicator first calculates the logarithmic returns of the asset’s price. It then computes the annualized standard deviation of these returns over short, medium, and long-term lookback periods to generate realized volatility readings.
2. Percentile Ranking:
Using a 252-day lookback, it analyzes the history of the medium-term volatility and determines the values that correspond to the 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 90th percentiles. This builds a statistical map of the asset’s volatility behavior.
3. Cone Projection:
Finally, it takes these historical percentile values and projects them forward in time, calculating the potential upper and lower price bounds based on what would happen if volatility were to run at those levels over the next 21 days.
💡Note:
The Volatility Cone Forecaster is most effective on daily and weekly charts where statistical volatility models are more reliable. For lower timeframes, consider shortening the lookback periods. Always use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading plan that includes other forms of analysis.
FluidFlow OscillatorFluidFlow Oscillator: Study Material for Traders
Overview
The FluidFlow Oscillator is a custom technical indicator designed to measure price momentum and market flow dynamics by simulating fluid motion concepts such as velocity, viscosity, and turbulence. It helps traders identify potential buy and sell signals along with trend strength, momentum direction, and volatility conditions.
This study explains the underlying calculation concepts, signal logic, visual cues, and how to interpret the professional dashboard table that summarizes key indicator readings.
________________________________________
How the FluidFlow Oscillator Works
Core Mechanisms
1. Price Flow Velocity
o Measures the rate of change of price over a specified flow length (default 40 bars).
o Calculated as a percentage change of closing price: roc=close−closelen_flowcloselen_flow×100\text{roc} = \frac{\text{close} - \text{close}_{len\_flow}}{\text{close}_{len\_flow}} \times 100roc=closelen_flowclose−closelen_flow×100
o Smoothed by an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) to reduce noise, generating a "flow velocity" value.
2. Viscosity Factor
o Analogous to fluid viscosity, it adjusts the flow velocity based on recent price volatility.
o Volatility is computed as the standard deviation of close prices over the flow length.
o The viscosity acts as a damping factor to slow down the flow velocity in highly volatile conditions.
o This results in a "flow with viscosity" value, that smooths out the velocity considering market turbulence.
3. Turbulence Burst
o Captures sudden changes or bursts in the flow by measuring changes between successive viscosity-adjusted flows.
o The turbulence value is a smoothed absolute change in flow.
o A burst boost factor is added to the oscillator to incorporate this rapid change component, amplifying signals during sudden shifts.
4. Oscillator Calculation
o The raw oscillator value is the sum of flow with viscosity plus burst boost, scaled by 10.
o Clamped between -100 and +100 to limit extremes.
o Finally, smoothed again by EMA for cleaner visualization.
________________________________________
Signal Logic
The oscillator works with complementary components to produce actionable signals:
• Signal Line: An EMA-smoothed version of the oscillator for generating crossover-based signals.
• Momentum: The rate of change of the oscillator itself, smoothed by EMA.
• Trend: Uses fast (21-period EMA) and slow (50-period EMA) moving averages of price to identify market trend direction (uptrend, downtrend, or sideways).
Signal Conditions
• Bullish Signal (Buy): Oscillator crosses above the oversold threshold with positive momentum.
• Bearish Signal (Sell): Oscillator crosses below the overbought threshold with negative momentum.
Statuses
The oscillator provides descriptive market states based on level and momentum:
• Overbought
• Oversold
• Buy Signal
• Sell Signal
• Bullish / Bearish (momentum-driven)
• Neutral (no clear trend)
________________________________________
Color System and Visualization
The oscillator uses a sophisticated HSV color model adapting hues according to:
• Oscillator value magnitude and sign (positive or negative)
• Acceleration of oscillator changes
• Smooth color gradients to facilitate intuitive understanding of trend strength and momentum shifts
Background colors highlight overbought (red tint) and oversold (green tint) zones with transparency.
________________________________________
How to Understand the Professional Dashboard Table
The FluidFlow Oscillator offers an integrated table at the bottom center of the chart. This dashboard summarizes critical indicator readings in 8 columns across 3 rows:
Column Description
SIGNAL Current signal status (e.g., Buy, Sell, Overbought) with color coding
OSCILLATOR Current oscillator value (-100 to +100) with color reflecting intensity and direction
MOMENTUM Momentum bias indicating strength/direction of oscillator changes (Strong Up, Up, Sideways, Down, Strong Down)
TREND Current trend status based on EMAs (Strong Uptrend, Uptrend, Sideways, Downtrend, Strong Downtrend)
VOLATILITY Volatility percentage relative to average, indicating market activity level
FLOW Flow velocity value describing price momentum magnitude and direction
TURBULENCE Turbulence level indicating sudden bursts or spikes in price movement
PROGRESS Oscillator's position mapped as a percentage (0% to 100%) showing proximity to extreme levels
Rows Explained
• Row 1 (Header): Labels for each metric.
• Row 2 (Values): Current numerical or descriptive values color-coded along a professional scheme:
o Green or lime tones indicate positive or bullish conditions.
o Red or orange tones indicate caution, sell signals, or bearish conditions.
o Blue tones indicate neutral or stable conditions.
• Row 3 (Status Indicators): Emoji-like icons and bars provide a quick visual gauge of each metric's intensity or signal strength:
o For example, "🟢🟢🟢" suggests very strong bullish momentum, while "🔴🔴🔴" suggests strong bearish momentum.
o Progress bar visually demonstrates oscillator movement toward oversold or overbought extremes.
________________________________________
Practical Interpretation Tips
• A Buy signal with green colors and strong momentum usually precedes upward price moves.
• An Overbought status with red background and red table colors warns of potential price corrections or reversals.
• Watch the Turbulence to gauge market instability; spikes may precede price shocks or volatility bursts.
• Confirm signals with the Trend and Momentum columns to avoid false entries.
• Use the Progress bar to anticipate oscillations approaching key threshold levels for timing trades.
________________________________________
Alerts
The oscillator supports alerts for:
• Buy and sell signals based on oscillator crossovers.
• Overbought and oversold levels reached.
These help traders automate awareness of important market conditions.

Option CalculatorOption Calculator – Comprehensive Feature Guide
The aiTrendview Option Calculator is a feature-rich options trading dashboard built using Pine Script, designed for real-time market interpretation and strategy selection. It integrates Black-Scholes-based pricing models with dynamic market inputs to help traders evaluate directional bias, volatility, risk, and potential profitability in a structured, intuitive format. The tool supports both beginner and experienced options traders in making data-driven decisions.
Core Inputs and Pricing Foundations
Users can input the strike price, days to expiration, implied volatility (IV), interest rate, and option type (call or put). These values feed directly into calculations for the option's theoretical price, Greeks, and expected move. For example:
• Strike Price helps define moneyness, impacting delta and risk/reward balance.
• Days to Expiry determines the speed of time decay (theta).
• Risk-Free Rate adjusts for time value and interest rate impact (rho).
• Implied Volatility affects premium pricing and vega exposure.
• Option Type sets the directional foundation for strategy analysis.
Live Market Data Integration
The script pulls current underlying price, price change, and volume comparison against a moving average (e.g., current volume vs. 20-day average). This helps identify unusual trading activity or volume spikes. Volatility readings are also incorporated using ATR or external volatility indexes to enhance the realism of IV assessments.
Greek Calculations
The dashboard provides visual and numerical values for all five major Greeks:
• Delta shows directional sensitivity and is plotted with a visual bar.
• Gamma represents the rate of delta change, especially critical near-the-money.
• Theta measures time decay and is most impactful in the final weeks before expiration.
• Vega tracks sensitivity to volatility shifts, crucial for premium-selling strategies.
• Rho reflects sensitivity to interest rates, primarily relevant in long-dated options.
Each Greek is calculated based on real-time inputs, providing a statistical framework for assessing risk and return.
Market Sentiment & Risk Environment
A sentiment scoring system interprets the put-call ratio (PCR), volume trends, and price momentum (e.g., RSI). IV levels are color-coded (e.g., low, medium, high) to identify whether options are relatively cheap or expensive. These values support better timing decisions and help identify whether to be a buyer or seller of premium.
Strategy Recommendation Engine
The script dynamically evaluates six core strategies based on current data:
1. Long Call
2. Short Put
3. Long Put
4. Bull Call Spread
5. Long Straddle
6. Iron Butterfly
Each strategy is assigned a confidence score (0–100%) and updated in real-time. This system is designed to match the appropriate strategy to market conditions such as trend, volatility, and time to expiration.
Risk-Adjusted Trading Insights
The dashboard helps traders evaluate whether to initiate trades, reduce exposure, or wait:
• High Confidence (80%+): Favorable environment; standard sizing recommended.
• Moderate Confidence (60–80%): Trade with caution and reduced risk.
• Low Confidence (<60%): Consider avoiding the trade or waiting for better setup.
It also supports risk mitigation through defined-risk strategies and provides guidance on stop-loss, profit targets, and time-based exits (e.g., managing options with <21 days to expiry).
Real-Time Monitoring
The script continuously tracks:
• Changes in Greeks as price, volatility, or time evolve.
• Profit probability estimates using expected move and breakeven pricing.
• Volume activity and IV rank to spot institutional behavior.
This empowers traders to manage trades proactively, adjust exposure, or lock in profits based on changing market conditions.
Practical Use Case Flow
Step 1: Input Setup
Enter option-specific parameters (strike, expiry days, IV, etc.) and let the dashboard auto-calculate risk metrics.
Step 2: Analyze Market
Use sentiment analysis, IV level, and volume data to understand the environment.
Step 3: Select Strategy
Rely on the confidence score and recommendation engine to choose a suitable options strategy.
Step 4: Manage Risk
Apply size rules based on signal strength, adjust based on exposure, and set alerts if needed.
Step 5: Monitor Outcomes
Track Greeks, probability, and progress metrics to stay informed throughout the trade.
Trading Environment Adaptation
• Low IV: Favor long premium strategies (e.g., long straddles, long calls).
• High IV: Favor premium selling strategies (e.g., iron condors, credit spreads).
• Bullish Markets: Focus on call-based trades or bullish spreads.
• Sideways Markets: Use neutral setups like iron butterflies or calendar spreads.
Position sizing and stop-loss logic are aligned with industry practices (e.g., risk no more than 2% per trade, take profit at 50%, and cut losses at double the premium received).
Dashboard Interpretation Guide
• Green: High confidence strategy, favourable IV, and strong volume confirmation.
• Yellow: Mixed signals or moderate conviction – proceed with caution.
• Red: Low confidence, poor conditions – better to wait for clearer opportunities.

Simulated OI Proxy with Trend Table1. In Simple Terms
This script mimics open interest analysis using price and volume changes.
It visually marks possible bullish and bearish setups directly on your price chart.
It’s especially useful for markets where real OI data is not available (like Indian stocks)
=======================================================================
2. Calculating Price and Volume Changes
close - close: Calculates the change in closing price from the previous bar to the current bar.
volume - volume: Calculates the change in trading volume from the previous bar to the current bar.
Purpose:
These calculations help determine if price and volume are increasing or decreasing, which is used as a proxy for open interest (OI) since real OI data may not be available.
===================================================================
3. Proxy Logic for OI Signals
long_buildup: Both price and volume are rising. This suggests new buying interest (bullish signal).
short_buildup: Price is falling but volume is rising. This suggests new short positions are being opened (bearish signal).
short_covering: Price is rising but volume is falling. This suggests shorts are closing their positions, causing a price rise (cautiously bullish).
long_unwinding: Both price and volume are falling. This suggests long positions are being closed (cautiously bearish).
====================================================================
4. Plotting the Signals
plotshape(condition, ...): Draws a shape on the chart when the condition is true.
Long Buildup: Green triangle below the bar (bullish).
Short Buildup: Red triangle above the bar (bearish).
Short Covering: Blue circle below the bar (cautiously bullish).
Long Unwinding: Orange circle above the bar (cautiously bearish).
======================================================================
5. Signal Detection:
The script checks price and volume changes to determine which signal is active.
Trend Assignment:
It assigns a text label and color for the detected trend.
Table Display:
A table appears at the top-right of your chart, showing the current trend based on the latest bar.
Options Volatility Strategy Analyzer [TradeDots]The Options Volatility Strategy Analyzer is a specialized tool designed to help traders assess market conditions through a detailed examination of historical volatility, market benchmarks, and percentile-based thresholds. By integrating multiple volatility metrics (including VIX and VIX9D) with color-coded regime detection, the script provides users with clear, actionable insights for selecting appropriate options strategies.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
1. Historical Volatility & Percentile Calculations
Annualized Historical Volatility (HV): The script automatically computes the asset’s historical volatility using log returns over a user-defined period. It then annualizes these values based on the chart’s timeframe, helping you understand the asset’s typical volatility profile.
Dynamic Percentile Ranks: To gauge where the current volatility level stands relative to past behavior, historical volatility values are compared against short, medium, and long lookback periods. Tracking these percentile ranks allows you to quickly see if volatility is high or low compared to historical norms.
2. Multi-Market Benchmark Comparison
VIX and VIX9D Integration: The script tracks market volatility through the VIX and VIX9D indices, comparing them to the asset’s historical volatility. This reveals whether the asset’s volatility is outpacing, lagging, or remaining in sync with broader market volatility conditions.
Market Context Analysis: A built-in term-structure check can detect market stress or relative calm by measuring how VIX compares to shorter-dated volatility (VIX9D). This helps you decide if the present environment is risk-prone or relatively stable.
3. Volatility Regime Detection
Color-Coded Background: The analyzer assigns a volatility regime (e.g., “High Asset Vol,” “Low Asset Vol,” “Outpacing Market,” etc.) based on current historical volatility percentile levels and asset vs. market ratios. A color-coded background highlights the regime, enabling traders to quickly interpret the market’s mood.
Alerts on Regime Changes & Spikes: Automated alerts warn you about any significant expansions or contractions in volatility, allowing you to react swiftly in changing conditions.
4. Strategy Forecast Table
Real-Time Strategy Suggestions: At the close of each bar, an on-chart table generates suggested options strategies (e.g., selling premium in high volatility or buying premium in low volatility). These suggestions provide a quick summary of potential tactics suited to the current regime.
Contextual Market Data: The table also displays key statistics, such as VIX levels, asset historical volatility percentile, or ratio comparisons, helping you confirm whether volatility conditions warrant more conservative or more aggressive strategies.
🛠️ HOW TO USE
1. Select Your Timeframe: The script supports multiple timeframes. For short-term trading, intraday charts often reveal faster shifts in volatility. For swing or position trading, daily or weekly charts may be more stable and produce fewer false signals.
2. Check the Volatility Regime: Observe the background color and on-chart labels to identify the current regime (e.g., “HIGH ASSET VOL,” “LOW VOL + LAGGING,” etc.).
3. Review the Forecast Table: The table suggests strategy ideas (e.g., iron condors, long straddles, ratio spreads) depending on whether volatility is elevated, subdued, or spiking. Use these as a starting point for designing trades that match your risk tolerance.
4. Combine with Additional Analysis: For optimal results, confirm signals with your broader trading plan, technical tools (moving averages, price action), and fundamental research. This script is most effective when viewed as one component in a comprehensive decision-making process.
❗️LIMITATIONS
Directional Neutrality: This indicator analyzes volatility environments but does not predict price direction (up/down). Traders must combine with directional analysis for complete strategy selection.
Late or Missed Signals: Since all calculations require a bar to close, sharp intrabar volatility moves may not appear in real-time.
False Positives in Choppy Markets: Rapid changes in percentile ranks or VIX movements can generate conflicting or premature regime shifts.
Data Sensitivity: Accuracy depends on the availability and stability of volatility data. Significant gaps or unusual market conditions may skew results.
Market Correlation Assumptions: The system assumes assets generally correlate with S&P 500 volatility patterns. May be less effective for:
Small-cap stocks with unique volatility drivers
International stocks with different market dynamics
Sector-specific events disconnected from broad market
Cryptocurrency-related assets with independent volatility patterns
RISK DISCLAIMER
Options trading involves substantial risk and is not suitable for all investors. Options strategies can result in significant losses, including the total loss of premium paid. The complexity of options strategies requires thorough understanding of the risks involved.
This indicator provides volatility analysis for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered as investment advice. Past volatility patterns do not guarantee future performance. Market conditions can change rapidly, and volatility regimes may shift without warning.
No trading system can guarantee profits, and all trading involves the risk of loss. The indicator's regime classifications and strategy suggestions should be used as part of a comprehensive trading plan that includes proper risk management, directional analysis, and consideration of broader market conditions.
5EMA_BB_ScalpingWhat?
In this forum we have earlier published a public scanner called 5EMA BollingerBand Nifty Stock Scanner , which is getting appreciated by the community. That works on top-40 stocks of NSE as a scanner.
Whereas this time, we have come up with the similar concept as a stand-alone indicator which can be applied for any chart, for any timeframe to reap the benifit of reversal trading.
How it works?
This is essentially a reversal/divergence trading strategy, based on a widely used strategy of Power-of-Stocks 5EMA.
To know the divergence from 5-EMA we just check if the high of the candle (on closing) is below the 5-EMA. Then we check if the closing is inside the Bollinger Band (BB). That's a Buy signal. SL: low of the candle, T: middle and higher BB.
Just opposite for selling. 5-EMA low should be above 5-EMA and closing should be inside BB (lesser than BB higher level). That's a Sell signal. SL: high of the candle, T: middle and lower BB.
Along with we compare the current bar's volume with the last-20 bar VWMA (volume weighted moving average) to determine if the volume is high or low.
Present bar's volume is compared with the previous bar's volume to know if it's rising or falling.
VWAP is also determined using `ta.vwap` built-in support of TradingView.
The Bolling Band width is also notified, along with whether it is rising or falling (comparing with previous candle).
What's special?
We love this reversal trading, as it offers many benifits over trend following strategies:
Risk to Reward (RR) is superior.
It _Does Hit_ stop losses, but the stop losses are tiny.
Means, althrough the Profit Factor looks Nahh , however due to superior RR, end of day it ended up in green.
When the day is sideways, it's difficult to trade in trending strategies. This sort of volatility, reversal strategies works better.
It's always tempting to go agaist the wind. Whole world is in Put/PE and you went opposite and enter a Call/CE. And turns out profitable! That's an amazing feeling, as a trader :)
How to trade using this?
* Put any chart
* Apply this screener from Indicators (shortcut to launch indicators is just type / in your keyboard).
* It will show you the Green up arrow when buy alert comes or red down arrow when sell comes. * Also on the top right it will show the latest signal with entry, SL and target.
Disclaimer
* This piece of software does not come up with any warrantee or any rights of not changing it over the future course of time.
* We are not responsible for any trading/investment decision you are taking out of the outcome of this indicator.
TOMOs Consolidation Indicator using Bar Heightswhat this is: This indicator creates an alert (see green arrow) when there are periods of consolidation in the chart. YOU define what consolidation means. It looks at BOTH candle heights (wicks included by default) AND checks the lowest and highest of those candles.
> Number of candles to check: you define how many candles you want to use to calculate consolidation. For instance, if you select 3 candles and you're on a 5-min chart, that's 15 mins of consolidation.
> Max Candle Height: You define what consolidation height or range is considered consolidation to you. So if you put in a value of 15. That means the last X number of candles are examined for whether OR NOT they are at or below that height. If they are, then it checks to see if the lowest and highest point among those candles are within that height as well. IF they are, then you see a green arrow. That is consolidation in this indicator. And you can use it for an alarm.
> the blue shade just means consolidation is continuing BEYOND the green-arrow when it was indicated. It's just a visual indicator. that's it.
> Include Wicks in Candle Height? Maybe you just want the body of the candle and not it's wicks. Your call.
Trigger Starts and stops: hour/min. This is ALL Eastern time (NYSE's time) and NOT your own timezone. You can simply tell the script you ONLY want the trigger alert to happen between the the start and end time. So if you're using it to trigger a trade, maybe you don't want to trigger it too early or late in the day.
Inputs in Status Line: This is tradingview default. I can't remove it.
Option Value/Time Value DifferenceThis indicator calculates and visualizes the difference between two option contracts (either their time value or option value) based on a user-selected underlying instrument (e.g., NIFTY 50). It fetches real-time data for the underlying and the two specified options, computes their intrinsic and time values, and plots either the time value or option value (ask price) along with their difference. A customizable table displays key details, including strike prices, option types (Call/Put), and the selected values, with a dark mode option for better visibility.
Key Features:
Flexible Plotting: Choose to plot and display either the Time Value (option price minus intrinsic value) or the Option Value (ask price) for two option strikes.
Difference Calculation: Plots the difference between the two options’ selected values (time value or option value) as a distinct line.
Dynamic Table: Shows strike prices, option types (CE/PE), and the selected values (time value or option value) for both options, plus their difference.
Dark Mode Support: Toggle between light and dark themes for the table display.
Real-Time Data: Uses TradingView’s request.security to fetch live prices for the underlying and options.
Use Case:
This script is ideal for options traders who want to compare two strikes (e.g., a Call and a Put, or two Calls/Puts at different strikes) and analyze their time value or option value differences in real-time. It’s particularly useful for strategies like spreads, straddles, or strangles.

Option Time ValueThis TradingView script calculates and visualizes the time value of an option (Call or Put) based on its market price and intrinsic value. The time value represents the premium paid for the option above its intrinsic value, and it is a key metric for analyzing the cost of holding an option.
This script is suitable for traders analyzing options on indices or stocks, such as the NIFTY 50, and supports both Call and Put options. By dynamically extracting the strike price and option type from the input symbol, it adapts seamlessly to the selected instrument.
Key Features:
Dynamic Instrument Selection:
Users can input the underlying asset (e.g., NSE:NIFTY) and the specific option instrument (e.g., NSE:NIFTY250327C24000 for a Call or NSE:NIFTY250327P24000 for a Put).
Automatic Option Type Detection:
The script detects whether the option is a Call or a Put by parsing the input symbol for the characters "C" (Call) or "P" (Put).
Dynamic Strike Price Extraction:
The strike price is dynamically extracted from the input option symbol, eliminating the need for hardcoding and reducing user errors.
Key Metrics Plotted:
Time Value: The premium paid above the intrinsic value, plotted in blue.
Intrinsic Value: The calculated intrinsic value of the option, plotted in green.
Seamless Integration:
Designed for ease of use and integration into existing TradingView setups.
Automatically adjusts to the timeframe and pricing data of the selected instruments.

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
In options trading, theta is defined as the rate of decline in the value of an option due to the passage of time. Traders want to avoid this kind of decay in the value of an option. One of the best ways to avoid it is not holding an option contract when the market is going sideways. This indicator uses a stochastic oscillator to try to get a foresight of sideways markets, warning the trader to not hold an option contract while the price is in a range.
The indicator starts by calculating the stochastic value using close, high & low prices of the candlesticks. Then a stoch threshold & a theta length are determined depending on the option contract type defined by the user in the settings of the indicator. Each candlestick that falls above or below the stoch threshold value is counted, and a "theta valid strength" is calculated using the counted candlesticks, which has a value between -100 & 100. Here is the formula of the "theta valid strength" value :
f_lin_interpolate(float x0, float x1, float y0, float y1, float x) =>
y0 + (x - x0) * (y1 - y0) / (x1 - x0)
thetaValid = Total Candlesticks That Fall Above & Below The Threshold In Last "Theta Length" bars.
thetaValidStrength = f_lin_interpolate(0, thetaLength, -100, 100, thetaValid)
Then a trail is rendered, and "Valid" & "Non-Valid" signals are given using this freshly calculated strength value. Valid means that the indicator currently thinks that no accumulation will happen in the near future, so the option positions in the current ticker are protected from the theta decay. Non-Valid means that the indicator thinks the ticker has entered the accumulation phase, so holding any option position is not recommended, as they may be affected by the theta decay.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
This indicator offers a unique way to avoid theta decay in options trading. It uses a stochastic oscillator and thresholds to calculate a "theta strength" value, which is used for rendering validness signals and a trail. Traders can follow the valid & non-valid signals when deciding to hold their options position or not. The indicator also has an alerts feature, so you can get notified when a ticker is about to enter a range, or when it's about to get out of it.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Contract Type -> You can set the option contract type here. The indicator will adjust itself to get a better foresight depending on the contract length.
2. Style
Fill Validness -> Will render a trail based on "theta strength" value.
[1] Dynamic Support and Resistance with breakout [Dr Future]This script appears to be designed to identify and visualize dynamic support and resistance levels on a price chart, along with potential breakout signals.
Key Components & Functionality (Inferred):
Dynamic Support and Resistance: The script likely employs algorithms to calculate and plot support and resistance levels that adjust in real-time as price action evolves.
Breakout Detection: The script probably incorporates logic to recognize when the price breaks out of these dynamic support or resistance zones. This could trigger alerts or visual cues on the chart.
Dr Future's Approach: It's worth noting the " " tag, suggesting the script might be based on specific methodologies or insights associated with a trader or analyst known as "Dr Future." Without more context on their strategies, it's difficult to pinpoint the exact techniques used.
Potential Benefits:
Adaptive Levels: Dynamic support and resistance can offer a more responsive approach compared to static levels, as they account for changing market conditions.
Breakout Opportunities: Identifying breakouts can help traders spot potential entry or exit points.
Visual Clarity: Plotting these levels directly on the chart can provide a clearer picture of the current market structure and potential turning points.
Caveats:
False Signals: Like any technical tool, dynamic support and resistance can generate false signals. Breakouts might not always lead to sustained trends.
Parameter Sensitivity: The script's effectiveness likely depends on how its parameters are configured. Fine-tuning might be required to suit different markets or timeframes.
"Dr Future" Factor: The script's performance could be tied to the specific strategies of "Dr Future," which might not be universally applicable.
Important Note:
Without access to the actual code and a deeper understanding of "Dr Future's" methods, this description is based on inference and general knowledge of technical analysis.
Recommendation:
If you're considering using this script, it would be prudent to:
Backtest Thoroughly: Test the script on historical data to assess its performance and identify potential pitfalls.
Understand the Parameters: Familiarize yourself with the script's settings and how they impact the plotted levels and breakout signals.
Combine with Other Tools: Use this script in conjunction with other technical indicators and risk management strategies for a more holistic trading approach.
BE-NSE-Distributed Straddle Intraday Trading StrategyHerewith publishing the script (not the Indicator!) for the benift of Option Traders. I call this a script as this doesn't perform any kind of analysis of candle data and provide general BUY | SELL information. This Script is based on the TRUE VALUES concept which is nothing but LTP.
Idea Behind this Script:
As an option seller i need the lower risk option premium to trade. so that, time can work in our favor. basic question which we get at the first is which option to choose out of many available.
If traders feel the question is apt then this script is for them.
Logic Behind this script:
Upon Market Open, script in the BACKEND ( Under the hood ) deployes 60 possible combinations of STRADDLES for sampling, and continue to monitor the LTP movements and compares it against opposite pairs. lets say out of 30 Straddle options one of the Straddle it picked is ATM CE VS ATM PE. for 1 rs move in underlying how much impact is happening in CE VS PE.
This simple anlysis is done at every 30 seconds. once the Analysis is complete it picks 4 options 2 on the CALL side and 2 on the PUT side, which script feels the movement of prices are smooth. SMOOTH refers that time decay that can work in our favor..
Calculations behid the script:
lets say BNF LTP is 52000 at 9:20 AM, and one of the pair script took for sampling was ATM CE vs PE which are having the LTP of 100 each.
At 9:35 AM, BNF is trading at 52075, and ATM CE is reading the LTP of 122 and ATM PUT is reading the LTP of 70. ideally LTP of Call should be around 135 and Put should be around 65 considering the usual delta of 0.48 . Net Money Index for this Pair Sample is 8
Call Side => 100 - 122 = -22
Put Side => 100 - 70 = 30
Money Index => 30 - 22 = 8 for 15 Min
This Money index is calculated across choosen samples and the Option strikes is provided as an output which has mere possiblity of working in Options Seller's favor.
How to Read the Output:
For the choosen strikes from the time of Entry (Suggested Entry time by script) till the current time, the bottom pane plots the Money index as columns. Green Columns indicate that how much option premium eroded due to time decay. Red Columns indicate that how much Option premium increased during the time.
Note: Script dynamically calculate the strikes and suggests in realtime.
WARNING or a Humble Request:
For those who don't understand the word "Repaint" how it works in Pine Script. plz don't consider using this script. For those who wish to understand I have kept the Observer mode in the settings which shall guide you on why the Money Index shown on the chart when the MARKET IS CLOSED is different than when the MARKET IS OPEN (Realtime).
Disclaimer:
I have tested the script only in BNF and not sure if this works on Nifty, FinNifty or others. you may still try and plz do provide the feedback for improvising the script.

[Options Strategies] Selling Covered Calls and Puts (TSO) This trading indicator assists with traditional covered options trading strategies like Covered Calls, Covered Puts, and Cash Secured Puts. It also offers advanced features for trading options intelligently by utilizing options specific levels, such as BE (Break Even) and Strike (all visually shown on chart) in combination with S&R (Support and Resistance), Trend Lines, and other technical analysis tools such as MA (Moving Averages) and ATR Average True Range, all integrated within the indicator.
* Covered options approach over trading shares or options separately offers distinct advantages:
- Reduced Risk and Flexibility : Covered options strategy provides a more conservative approach by combining stock ownership with options trading. It reduces risk exposure compared to buying options outright or trading shares alone. Additionally, it offers flexibility in various market conditions.
- Profitability in Sideways Markets: Covered options allow for profitability in scenarios where the stock price is either moving optimally or remaining sideways. In contrast, just holding stocks might not yield significant gains in a sideways market, and buying options can result in losses due to time decay.
- Protection Against Price Movements: In covered options, if the stock price goes against the trade, the loss is mitigated by the premium received from selling the options. This provides a level of protection compared to other trading strategies where losses can accumulate more rapidly.

An example of a Smart Covered Calls trading SPY.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> S&R (Support and Resistance) or Trend Line broken, bounced off or simply near (if price is near/slightly crossing S&R/Trend Line > a bounce often takes place)
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Broken Resistance combined with a Trend Line up-bounce, confirmed by bullish 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept + stock assigned/sold at a higher price than it was purchased.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: stock sold at a slight loss with options contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a lower price than initially sold (since price went down and these are calls), so technically the loss is reduced by the partial Premium still kept from initially sold contracts at trade open.
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

An example of a Smart Covered Puts trading SPY.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bearish/Sideway)
>>> S&R (Support and Resistance) or Trend Line broken, bounced off or simply near (if price is near/slightly crossing S&R/Trend Line > a bounce often takes place)
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Broken Resistance combined with a Trend Line down-bounce, confirmed by bearish 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept + stock assigned/bought-to-cover at a lower price than it was shorted.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: stock bought-to-cover at a slight loss with options contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a lower price than initially sold (since price went up and these are puts), so technically the loss is reduced by the partial Premium still kept from initially sold contracts at trade open.
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

An example of a Smart Secured Cash Puts trading SPY.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> Bullish steady trend.
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Slowly rising price action above 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Early BTC: BTC (Buy to Close) before Expiration date if options premium/contract price already reduced by at least 50-90% (the reduced price is the profit, if premium lost 90% - only 10% will need to be paid to buy options out to close the trade) and if the stock price is nearing Resistance, Trend Line or big length moving average (like 200EMA) as a bounce may happen or even a potential reverse of the trend. If there is no trend reversal or a small correction bounce occurs, with further trend continuation > another Cash Secured Puts trade can be opened with new Expiration date and Strike.
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept, considering the Strike was never hit.
>>> Assignment with stock closing below Strike and above/near BE (Break Even): Premium received for selling contracts kept. NOTE: It is best to get rid of the stock ASAP to then open a new Cash Secured Puts trade with lower Strike and a new Expiration date.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a higher price than initially sold (since price went down and these are puts), the amount/difference in current contract price is the loss (as premium received + contract price increase is the total cost, which will have to be paid to buy the countracts out).
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

An example of Options Wheel strategy trading TQQQ. See how Strike and BE (Break Even) hits are displayed every time they occur.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> Options Wheel strategy combines Cash Secured Puts with Covered Calls, so a steady bullish trend is preferred with lower volatility.
>>> It's best to start with Cash Secured Puts until assignment hits (stocks purchased), then switch to Covered Calls until assignment hits (stocks sold) and so on.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept. Stock is assigned (purchased if Cash Secured Puts were sold | sold if Covered Calls were sold ).
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss)
>>> Assignment is the stop-loss for this strategy, which ends current trade and starts next one. It is not a direct loss, but could result a long unrealized losses if after stock purchase assignment it goes down for a while or even a complete loss if low-cap company is used and it goes out of business.
>>> BE/SL distance can still be increased/kept optimal: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established Trend Line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.
