Quadratic Least Squares Moving Average - Smoothing + Forecast Introduction
Technical analysis make often uses of classical statistical procedures, one of them being regression analysis, and since fitting polynomial functions that minimize the sum of squares can be achieved with the use of the mean, variance, covariance...etc, technical analyst only needed to replace the mean in all those calculations with a moving average, we then end up with a low lag filter called least squares moving average (lsma) .
The least squares moving average could be classified as a rolling linear regression, altho this sound really bad it is useful to understand the relationship of both methods, both have the same form, that is ax + b , where a and b are coefficients of the model. However in a simple linear regression a and b are constant, while the lsma use variables instead.
In a simple lsma we model the relationship of the closing price (dependent variable) with a linear sequence (independent variable), therefore x = 1,2,3,4..etc. However we can use polynomial of higher degrees to model such relationship, this is required if we want more reactivity. Therefore we can use a quadratic form, that is ax^2 + bx + c , where a,b and c are variables.
This is the quadratic least squares moving average (qlsma), a not so official term, but we'll stick with it because it still represent the aim of the filter quite well. In this indicator i make the calculations of the qlsma less troublesome, therefore one might understand how it would work, note that in general the coefficients of a polynomial regression model are found using matrix calculus.
The Indicator
A qlsma, unlike the classic lsma, will fit better to the price and will be more reactive, this is the advantage of using an higher degrees for its calculation, we can model more complex relationship.
lsma in green, qlsma in red, with both length = 200
However the over/under shoots are greater, i'll explain why in the next sections, but this is one of the drawbacks of using higher degrees.
The indicator allow to forecast future values, the ahead period of the forecast is determined by the forecast setting. The value for this setting should be lower than length, else the forecasts can easily over/under shoot which heavily damage the forecast. In order to get a view on how well the forecast is performing you can check the option "Show past predicted values".
Of course understanding the logic behind the forecast is important, in short regressions models best fit a certain curve to the data, this curve can be a line (linear regression), a parabola (quadratic regression) and so on, the type of curve is determined by the degree of the polynomial used, here 2, which is a parabola. Lets use a linear regression model as example :
ax + b where x is a linear sequence 1,2,3...and a/b are constants. Our goal is to find the values for a and b that minimize the sum of squares of the line with the dependent variable y, here the closing price, so our hypothesis is that :
closing price = ax + b + ε
where ε is white noise, a component that the model couldn't forecast. The forecast of the closing price 14 step ahead would be equal to :
closing price 14 step aheads = a(x+14) + b
Since x is a linear sequence we only need to sum it with the forecasting horizon period, the same is done here with :
a*(n+forecast)^2 + b*(n + forecast) + c
Note that the forecast proposed in the indicator is more for teaching purpose that anything else, this indicator can't possibly forecast future values, even on a meh rate.
Low lag filters have been used to provide noise free crosses with slow moving average, a bad practice in my opinion due to the ability low lag filters have to overshoot/undershoot, more interesting use cases might be to use the qlsma as input for other indicators.
On The Code
Some of you might know that i posted a "quadratic regression" indicator long ago, the original calculations was coming from a forum, but because the calculation was ugly as hell as well as extra inefficient (dogfood level) i had to do something about it, the name was also terribly misleading.
We can see in the code that we make heavy use of the variance and covariance, both estimated with :
VAR(x) = SMA(x^2) - SMA(x)^2
COV(x,y) = SMA(xy) - SMA(x)SMA(y)
Those elements are then combined, we can easily recognize the intercept element c , who don't change much from the classical lsma.
As Digital Filter
The frequency response of the qlsma is similar to the one of the lsma, those filters amplify certain frequencies in the passband, and have ripples in the stop band. There is something interesting about those filters, first using higher degrees allow to greater boost of the frequencies in the passband, which result in greater over/under shoots. Another funny thing is that the peak/valley of the ripples is equal the peak or valley in the ripples of another lsma of different degree.
The transient response of those filters, that is impulse response, step response...etc is related to the degree of the polynomial used, therefore lets denote a lsma of degree p : lsma(p) , the impulse response of lsma(p) is a polynomial of degree p, and the step response is simple a polynomial of order p+1.
This is why it was more interesting to estimate the qlsma using convolution, however we can no longer forecast future values.
Conclusion
I proposed a more usable quadratic least squares moving average, with more options, as well as a cleaner and more efficient code. The process of shrinking the original code is made easier when you know about the estimations of both variance and covariance.
I hope the proposed indicator/calculation is useful.

[BTX] Triple TRIX + MAsThis indicator suggest a strategy, which is quite similar to multiple MA or multiple RSI strategies.
This indicator can be used for all timeframes, all markets.
This indicator can help detect the market trend and momentum.
Default values are TRIX - 6, 12, and 24 periods and MA(8) for each TRIX line. You can choose what type of MA to be used (EMA or SMA).
How to exploit this indicator?
- When all of the lower TRIXs are ABOVE the higher one: TRIX(6) is above TRIX(12), and TRIX(12) is above TRIX(24), there is a BULLISH market.
- When all of the lower TRIXs are BELOW the higher one: TRIX(6) is below TRIX(12), and TRIX(12) is below TRIX(24), there is a BEARISH market.
- A crossover of the lower TRIX to the higher one indicates a BUY signal.
- A crossunder of the lower TRIX to the higher one indicates a SELL signal.
- TRIX crossover the Zero line can be considered as a STRONG bullish signal.
- TRIX crossunder the Zero line can be considered as a STRONG bearish signal.
- The MA of TRIX acts as a confirmation, it can be used as SELL signals.
- High slopes of TRIX lines can point out the high momentum of the current trend.
- Divergence patterns can be used with this indicator.
- And many more tricks.
OVL_Kikoocycle Beta_Pine3This script use :
- A custom Chande Kroll Stop for generate the channel
- Some custom Parabolic S.A.R for generate cycles
This script can be separated into 3 categories:
- Channel Kroll generator : one layer for the actual interval and a layer for a Large Timeframe .(with ratio)
- "Range" generator : one layer for actual Interval and a layer for a Large Timeframe.(with automique ratio)
-Targets generator : one layer for actual interval with different trend.
"Channel Kroll" :
- I "hijack" the Chande Kroll Stop formula with custom parameters for generate this channel. Overall, it works like other types of channels like BB, etc... A midline and two borders. The thickness of the borders are relatively important here. A thick border shows some resistance of the area. And so the probability of seeing the market return to its first contact is stronger. While a very thin and vertical border would rather play the role of a breach, a bit like the idea of gaps. Often the market seems to want to go after several cycles.
You can activate its Large TimeFrame version, its midline is strong and fine borders helps to judge the risk.
SARget + "SAR Limited" :
- (S.A.R + targets) The philosophy of this function is simple... When a small cycle is broken, it creates a mark on a higher cycle. So on until the SAR called "SAR Limited". For simplicity, imagine a fractal image but inverted ... Break the small figure, it will mark the larger figure at this time but to get there you still have to make the way to the small figure.
Targets are : cross ("+") for fast targets(hidden by default because, theire work only on lower interval), squares (for medium trend), Xcross(for large trend) and red cross(they try to find a large contexte). When a target proc, it is for later (market need some cycles for going to, but it is relative to your interval). This gives you speculative goals.
Why 2 targets for a same type and a triangle with a 90deg angle : This give a potential area for management.The triangle help to visualize the SAR and to juge the market reaction. You need to adapte your trade with that...
Targets may be slightly too far because I am a bad coder... Currently the targets appear at the moment of rupture but it would be necessary to wait for the end of the breaking movement. Which can bring a positional error if the break is violent.
RnG and LTF RnG :
- Attempt to generate a Fibo range for each cycle and see interressing areas to enter or exit. This is played with the same philosophy as the Fibo extensions and retracement.
When a new RnG is generated, do not rush. It appears showing 50/50 for both sides. When a new RnG is generated, do not rush. It appears showing 50/50 for both sides. As long as the market is out of the middle zone (the 3 lines) keep in mind the past RnG.
When the market is out of range, you can use the FibRetracement tool for have extensions. One point at each end, as on the presentation graph. (Values 1.14, 1.272, 1.414, 1.618, 1.786, 2, 2.4 and 4 work well.) If too extrem you can active the LTF version.
Never fomo a break, market like to pull a level... Observe and be patient.
It's easier to use than to explain xD
NB : Do not use the LTF as context. For this, it is better to look at a higher interval.
I invite you to look in the style tab of the script and deselect the plots named UNCHECKEME, this will ease your browser.
10/20 MA Cross-Over with Heikin-Ashi Signals by SchobbejakThe 10/20 MA Heikin-Ashi Strategy is the best I know. It's easy, it's elegant, it's effective.
It's particularly effective in markets that trend on the daily. You may lose some money when markets are choppy, but your loss will be more than compensated when you're aboard during the big moves at the beginning of a trend or after retraces. There's that, and you nearly eliminate the risk of losing your profit in the long run.
The results are good throughout most assets, and at their best when an asset is making new all-time highs.
It uses two simple moving averages: the 10 MA (blue), and the 20 MA (red), together with heikin-ashi candles. Now here's the great thing. This script does not change your regular candles into heikin-ashi ones, which would have been annoying; instead, it subtly prints either a blue dot or a red square around your normal candles, indicating a heikin-ashi change from red to green, or from green to red, respectively. This way, you get both regular and heikin ashi "candles" on your chart.
Here's how to use it.
Go LONG in case of ALL of the below:
1) A blue dot appeared under the last daily candle (meaning the heikin-ashi is now "green").
2) The blue MA-line is above the red MA-line.
3) Price has recently breached the blue MA-line upwards, and is now above.
COVER when one or more of the above is no longer the case. This is very important. You want to keep your profit.
Go SHORT in case of ALL of the below:
1) A red square appeared above the last daily candle (meaning the heikin-ashi is now "red").
2) The red MA-line is above the blue MA-line.
3) Price has recently breached the blue MA-line downwards, and is now below.
Again, COVER when one or more of the above is no longer the case. This is what gives you your edge.
It's that easy.
Now, why did I make the signal blue, and not green? Because blue looks much better with red than green does. It's my firm believe one does not become rich using ugly charts.
Good luck trading.

ABK Multi EMA I really like to work with EMAs, but each time you use the "buit-in" one, you use one more slot in your indicators allowed.
So I built this simple one, 4 EMA in one indicator, and easy to use as following;
-displays 4 EMAs
-choose your EMA lenghts.
-choose your color and other options as needed.
5 MAs w. alerts [LucF]Is this gazillionth MA indicator worth an addition to the already crowded field of contenders? I say yes! This one shows up to 5 MAs and 6 different marker conditions that can be used to create alerts, among many other goodies.
Features
MAs can be darkened when they are falling.
MAs from another time frame can be displayed, with the option of smoothing them.
Markers can be filtered to Longs or Shorts only.
EMAs can be selected for either all or the two shortest MAs.
The background can be colored using any of the marker states except no. 3.
Markers are:
1. On crosses between any two user-defined MAs,
2. When price is above or below an MA,
3. On Quick Flips (a specific setup involving a cross, multiple MA states and increasing volume, when available),
4. When the difference between two MAs is within a % of its high/low historic values,
5. When an MA has been rising/falling for n bars,
6. When the difference between two MAs is greater than a multiple of ATR.
Some markers use similar visual cues, so distinguishing them will be a challenge if they are used concurrently.
Alerts
Alerts can be created on any combination of alerts. Only non-consecutive instances of markers 5 and 6 will trigger the alert condition. Make sure you are on the interval you want the alert to run at. Using the “Once Per Bar Close” trigger condition is usually the best option.
When an alert is created in TradingView, a snapshot of the indicator’s settings is saved with the alert, which then takes on a life of its own. That is why even though there is only one alert to choose from when you bring up the alert creation dialog box and choose “5 MAs”, that alert can be triggered from any number of conditions. You select those conditions by activating the markers you want the alert to trigger on before creating the alert. If you have selected multiple conditions, then it can be a good idea to record a reminder in the alert’s message field. When the alert triggers, you will need the indicator on the chart to figure out which one of your conditions triggered the alert, as there is currently no way to dynamically change the alert’s message field from within the script.
Background settings will not trigger alerts; only marker configurations.
Notes
MAs are just… averages. Trader lure would have them act as support and resistance levels. I’m not sure about that, and not the only one thinking along these lines. Adam Grimes has studied moving averages in quite a bit of detail. His numbers point to no evidence indicating they act as support/resistance, and to specific MA lengths not being more meaningful than others. His point of view is debated by some—not by me. Mean reversion does not entail that price stops when it reaches its MA; rather, it makes sense to me that price would often more or less oscillate around its MA, which entails the MA does not act as support/resistance. Aren’t the best mean reversion opportunities when price is furthest away from its MA? If so, it should be more profitable to identify these areas, which some of this indicator’s markers try to do.
I think MAs can be much more powerful when thought of as instruments we can use to situate price events in contexts of various resolutions, from the instantaneous to the big picture. Accordingly, I use the relative positions and slopes of MAs in both discretionary and automated trading; but never their purported ability to support/resist.
Regardless of how you use MAs, I hope you will find this indicator useful.

Nyquist Criterion
In signal processing theory, the application of a MA to itself can be seen as a Sampling procedure. The sampled signal is the MA (referred to as MA1) and the sampling signal is the MA as well (referred to as MA2). If additional periodic cycles which are not included in the price series are to be avoided sampling must obey the Nyquist Criterion . With the cycle period as parameter, the usual one in Technical Analysis, the Nyquist Criterion reads as follows: n1 = λ*n2 , with λ ≥ 2. n1 is the cycle period of the sampled signal to which a sampling signal with cycle period n2 is applied. n1 must at least be twice as large as n2. In Mulloy´s and Ehlers´ approaches (referred to as Moving Averages 2.0) both cycle periods are equal. Moving Averages 3.0 Using the Nyquist Criterion there is a relation by which the application of a MA to itself can be described more precisely. In figure 2 a price series C (black line), one MA (MA1, red line) with lag L1 to the price series and another MA with lag L2 to MA1 (MA2, blue line) are illustrated. Based on the approximation and the relations described in figure 2 the following equation holds: (1) D1/D2 = (C – MA1)/(MA1 – MA2) = L1/L2 According to the lag formulas in the introduction L1/L2 can be written as follows:
α := L1/L2 = (n1 – 1)/(n2 – 1).
In this expression denominator 2 for the SMA and EMA as well as denominator 3 for the WMA are missing. α is therefore valid for all three MAs.
Using the Nyquist Criterion one gets for α the following result:
(2) α = λ* (n1 – 1)/(n1 – λ).
α put in (1) and C replaced by the approximation term NMA, the notation for the new MA, one gets:
NMA = (1 +α) MA1 – α MA2.
In detail, equation (2) reads as follows:
(3) NMA = (1 + α) MA1 – α
MA2 ,
(4) α = λ* (n1 – 1)/(n1 – λ), with λ ≥ 2.
(3) and (4) are equations for a group of MAs (notation: Moving Averages 3.0). They are independent of the choice of an MA. As the WMA shows the smallest lag (see introduction), it should generally be the first choice for the NMA. n1 = n2 results in the value 1 for α and λ, respectively. Then equation (3) passes into Ehlers´ formula. Thus Ehlers´ formula is included in the NMA formula as limiting value. It follows from a short calculation that the lag for NMA results in a theoretical value zero.

General Filter Estimator-An Experiment on Estimating EverythingIntroduction
The last indicators i posted where about estimating the least squares moving average, the task of estimating a filter is a funny one because its always a challenge and it require to be really creative. After the last publication of the 1LC-LSMA , who estimate the lsma with 1 line of code and only 3 functions i felt like i could maybe make something more flexible and less complex with the ability to approximate any filter output. Its possible, but the methods to do so are not something that pinescript can do, we have to use another base for our estimation using coefficients, so i inspired myself from the alpha-beta filter and i started writing the code.
Calculation and The Estimation Coefficients
Simplicity is the key word, its also my signature style, if i want something good it should be simple enough, so my code look like that :
p = length/beta
a = close - nz(b ,close)
b = nz(b ,close) + a/p*gamma
3 line, 2 function, its a good start, we could put everything in one line of code but its easier to see it this way. length control the smoothing amount of the filter, for any filter f(Period) Period should be equal to length and f(Period) = p , it would be inconvenient to have to use a different length period than the one used in the filter we want to estimate (imagine our estimation with length = 50 estimating an ema with period = 100) , this is where the first coefficients beta will be useful, it will allow us to leave length as it is. In general beta will be greater than 1, the greater it will be the less lag the filter will have, this coefficient will be useful to estimate low lagging filters, gamma however is the coefficient who will estimate lagging filters, in general it will range around .
We can get loose easily with those coefficients estimation but i will leave a coefficients table in the code for estimating popular filters, and some comparison below.
Estimating a Simple Moving Average
Of course, the boxcar filter, the running mean, the simple moving average, its an easy filter to use and calculate.
For an SMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 2
gamma = 0.5
Our filter is in red and the moving average in white with both length at 50 (This goes for every comparison we will do)
Its a bit imprecise but its a simple moving average, not the most interesting thing to estimate.
Estimating an Exponential Moving Average
The ema is a great filter because its length times more computing efficient than a simple moving average. For the EMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 3
gamma = 0.4
N.B : The EMA is rougher than the SMA, so it filter less, this is why its faster and closer to the price
Estimating The Hull Moving Average
Its a good filter for technical analysis with tons of use, lets try to estimate it ! For the HMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 4
gamma = 0.85
Looks ok, of course if you find better coefficients i will test them and actualize the coefficient table, i will also put a thank message.
Estimating a LSMA
Of course i was gonna estimate it, but this time this estimation does not have anything a lsma have, no moving average, no standard deviation, no correlation coefficient, lets do it.
For the LSMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 3.5
gamma = 0.9
Its far from being the best estimation, but its more efficient than any other i previously made.
Estimating the Quadratic Least Square Moving Average
I doubted about this one but it can be approximated as well. For the QLSMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 5.25
gamma = 1
Another ok estimate, the estimate filter a bit more than needed but its ok.
Jurik Moving Average
Its far from being a filter that i like and its a bit old. For the comparison i will use the JMA provided by @everget described in this article : c.mql5.com
For the JMA use the following coefficients :
for phase = 0
beta = pow*2 (pow is a parameter in the Jma)
gamma = 0.5
Here length = 50, phase = 0, pow = 5 so beta = 10
Looks pretty good considering the fact that the Jma use an adaptive architecture.
Discussion
I let you the task to judge if the estimation is good or not, my motivation was to estimate such filters using the less amount of calculations as possible, in itself i think that the code is quite elegant like all the codes of IIR filters (IIR Filters = Infinite Impulse Response : Filters using recursion) .
It could be possible to have a better estimate of the coefficients using optimization methods like the gradient descent. This is not feasible in pinescript but i could think about it using python or R.
Coefficients should be dependant of length but this would lead to a massive work, the variation of the estimation using fixed coefficients when using different length periods is just ok if we can allow some errors of precision.
I dont think it should be possible to estimate adaptive filter relying a lot on their adaptive parameter/smoothing constant except by making our coefficients adaptive (gamma could be)
So at the end ? What make a filter truly unique ? From my point of sight the architecture of a filter and the problem he is trying to solve is what make him unique rather than its output result. If you become a signal, hide yourself into noise, then look at the filters trying to find you, what a challenging game, this is why we need filters.
Conclusion
I wanted to give a simple filter estimator relying on two coefficients in order to estimate both lagging and low-lagging filters. I will try to give more precise estimate and update the indicator with new coefficients.

Tillson T3 Moving Average MTFMULTIPLE TIME FRAME version of Tillson T3 Moving Average Indicator
Developed by Tim Tillson, the T3 Moving Average is considered superior -1.60% to traditional moving averages as it is smoother, more responsive and thus performs better in ranging market conditions as well. However, it bears the disadvantage of overshooting the price as it attempts to realign itself to current market conditions.
It incorporates a smoothing technique which allows it to plot curves more gradual than ordinary moving averages and with a smaller lag. Its smoothness is derived from the fact that it is a weighted sum of a single EMA , double EMA , triple EMA and so on. When a trend is formed, the price action will stay above or below the trend during most of its progression and will hardly be touched by any swings. Thus, a confirmed penetration of the T3 MA and the lack of a following reversal often indicates the end of a trend.
The T3 Moving Average generally produces entry signals similar to other moving averages and thus is traded largely in the same manner. Here are several assumptions:
If the price action is above the T3 Moving Average and the indicator is headed upward, then we have a bullish trend and should only enter long trades (advisable for novice/intermediate traders). If the price is below the T3 Moving Average and it is edging lower, then we have a bearish trend and should limit entries to short. Below you can see it visualized in a trading platform.
Although the T3 MA is considered as one of the best swing following indicators that can be used on all time frames and in any market, it is still not advisable for novice/intermediate traders to increase their risk level and enter the market during trading ranges (especially tight ones). Thus, for the purposes of this article we will limit our entry signals only to such in trending conditions.
Once the market is displaying trending behavior, we can place with-trend entry orders as soon as the price pulls back to the moving average (undershooting or overshooting it will also work). As we know, moving averages are strong resistance/support levels, thus the price is more likely to rebound from them and resume its with-trend direction instead of penetrating it and reversing the trend.
And so, in a bull trend, if the market pulls back to the moving average, we can fairly safely assume that it will bounce off the T3 MA and resume upward momentum, thus we can go long. The same logic is in force during a bearish trend .
And last but not least, the T3 Moving Average can be used to generate entry signals upon crossing with another T3 MA with a longer trackback period (just like any other moving average crossover). When the fast T3 crosses the slower one from below and edges higher, this is called a Golden Cross and produces a bullish entry signal. When the faster T3 crosses the slower one from above and declines further, the scenario is called a Death Cross and signifies bearish conditions.
I Personally added a second T3 line with a volume factor of 0.618 (Fibonacci Ratio) and length of 3 (fibonacci number) which can be added by selecting the box in the input section. traders can combine the two lines to have Buy/Sell signals from the crosses.

Inverse Fisher Transform on STOCHASTIC (modified graphics)Modified the graphic representation of the script from John Ehlers - From California, USA, he is a veteran trader. With 35 years trading experience he has seen it all. John has an engineering background that led to his technical approach to trading ignoring fundamental analysis (with one important exception). John strongly believes in cycles. He’d rather exit a trade when the cycle ends or a new one starts. He uses the MESA principle to make predictions about cycles in the market and trades one hundred percent automatically.
In the show John reveals:
• What is more appropriate than trading individual stocks
• The one thing he relies upon in his approach to the market
• The detail surrounding his unique trading style
• What important thing underpins the market and gives every trader an edge
About INVERSE FISHER TRANSFORM:
The purpose of technical indicators is to help with your timing decisions to buy or sell. Hopefully, the signals are clear and unequivocal. However, more often than not your decision to pull the trigger is accompanied by crossing your fingers. Even if you have placed only a few trades you know the drill. In this article I will show you a way to make your oscillator-type indicators make clear black-or-white indication of the time to buy or sell. I will do this by using the Inverse Fisher Transform to alter the Probability Distribution Function (PDF) of your indicators. In the past12 I have noted that the PDF of price and indicators do not have a Gaussian, or Normal, probability distribution. A Gaussian PDF is the familiar bell-shaped curve where the long “tails” mean that wide deviations from the mean occur with relatively low probability. The Fisher Transform can be applied to almost any normalized data set to make the resulting PDF nearly Gaussian, with the result that the turning points are sharply peaked and easy to identify. The Fisher Transform is defined by the equation
1)
Whereas the Fisher Transform is expansive, the Inverse Fisher Transform is compressive. The Inverse Fisher Transform is found by solving equation 1 for x in terms of y. The Inverse Fisher Transform is:
2)
The transfer response of the Inverse Fisher Transform is shown in Figure 1. If the input falls between –0.5 and +0.5, the output is nearly the same as the input. For larger absolute values (say, larger than 2), the output is compressed to be no larger than unity. The result of using the Inverse Fisher Transform is that the output has a very high probability of being either +1 or –1. This bipolar probability distribution makes the Inverse Fisher Transform ideal for generating an indicator that provides clear buy and sell signals.

And last but not least, the T3 Moving Average can be used to generate entry signals upon crossing with another T3 MA with a longer trackback period (just like any other moving average crossover). When the fast T3 crosses the slower one from below and edges higher, this is called a Golden Cross and produces a bullish entry signal. When the faster T3 crosses the slower one from above and declines further, the scenario is called a Death Cross and signifies bearish conditions.
I Personally added a second T3 line with a volume factor of 0.618 (Fibonacci Ratio) and length of 3 (fibonacci number) which can be added by selecting the box in the input section. traders can combine the two lines to have Buy/Sell signals from the crosses.

About INVERSE FISHER TRANSFORM:
The purpose of technical indicators is to help with your timing decisions to buy or
sell. Hopefully, the signals are clear and unequivocal. However, more often than
not your decision to pull the trigger is accompanied by crossing your fingers.
Even if you have placed only a few trades you know the drill.
In this article I will show you a way to make your oscillator-type indicators make
clear black-or-white indication of the time to buy or sell. I will do this by using the
Inverse Fisher Transform to alter the Probability Distribution Function ( PDF ) of
your indicators. In the past12 I have noted that the PDF of price and indicators do
not have a Gaussian, or Normal, probability distribution. A Gaussian PDF is the
familiar bell-shaped curve where the long “tails” mean that wide deviations from
the mean occur with relatively low probability. The Fisher Transform can be
applied to almost any normalized data set to make the resulting PDF nearly
Gaussian, with the result that the turning points are sharply peaked and easy to
identify. The Fisher Transform is defined by the equation
1)
Whereas the Fisher Transform is expansive, the Inverse Fisher Transform is
compressive. The Inverse Fisher Transform is found by solving equation 1 for x
in terms of y. The Inverse Fisher Transform is:
2)
The transfer response of the Inverse Fisher Transform is shown in Figure 1. If
the input falls between –0.5 and +0.5, the output is nearly the same as the input.
For larger absolute values (say, larger than 2), the output is compressed to be no
larger than unity . The result of using the Inverse Fisher Transform is that the
output has a very high probability of being either +1 or –1. This bipolar
probability distribution makes the Inverse Fisher Transform ideal for generating
an indicator that provides clear buy and sell signals.

Big Snapper Alerts R2.0 by JustUncleLThis is a diversified Binary Option or Scalping Alert indicator originally designed for lower Time Frame Trend or Swing trading. Although you will find it a useful tool for higher time frames as well.
The Alerts are generated by the changing direction of the ColouredMA (HullMA by default), you then have the choice of selecting the Directional filtering on these signals or a Bollinger swing reversal filter.
The filters include:
Type 1 - The three MAs (EMAs 21,55,89 by default) in various combinations or by themselves. When only one directional MA selected then direction filter is given by ColouredMA above(up)/below(down) selected MA. If more than one MA selected the direction is given by MAs being in correct order for trend direction.
Type 2 - The SuperTrend direction is used to filter ColouredMA signals.
Type 3 - Bollinger Band Outside In is used to filter ColouredMA for swing reversals.
Type 4 - No directional filtering, all signals from the ColouredMA are shown.
Notes:
Each Type can be combined with another type to form more complex filtration.
Alerts can also be disabled completely if you just want one indicator with one colouredMA and/or 3xMAs and/or Bollinger Bands and/or SuperTrend painted on the chart.
Warning:
Be aware that combining Bollinger OutsideIn swing filter and a directional filter can be counter productive as they are opposites. So careful consideration is needed when combining Bollinger OutsideIn with any of the directional filters.
Hints:
For Binary Options try ColouredMA = HullMA(13) or HullMA(8) with Type 2 or 3 Filter.
When using Trend filters SuperTrend and/or 3xMA Trend, you will find if price reverses and breaks back through the Big Fat Signal line, then this can be a good reversal trade.
Some explanation about the what Hull Moving average and ideas of how the generated in Big Snapper can be used:
tradingsim.com
forextradingstrategies4u.com
Inspiration from @vdubus
Big Snapper's Bollinger OutsideIn Swing filter in Action:
2-step Moving Average by HAH Financial- longer SMAs tend to sit too far from daily action
- shorter SMAs are too jittery
- the idea here is to create a smooth line, that is sits much closer to the daily price ranges
- this is achieved by mixing 2 MAs, a longer one and a shorter one
- the long one gives smoothness
- while averaging it with a shorter one, brings it (much in some cases) closer to the daily range
Price Action Doji Harami v0.2 by JustUncleLThis is an updated and final version of this indicator. This version distinguishes between the true Harami and the other Doji candlestick patterns as used with the Heikin Ashi candle charts. These candle patterns indicate a potential trend reversal or pullback.
The patterns identified are:
- Bearish Harami (Red Highlight above Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bull (green) candles followed by a small (red)
or no body candle (less than 0.5pip) with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bullish Harami (Green Highlight below Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bear (red) candles followed by a small (green)
or no body candle (less than 0.5pip) with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bearish Doji (Fuchsia Highlight above Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bull (green) candles followed by a small (green)
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bullish Doji (Aqua Highlight below Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bear (red) candles followed by a small (red)
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
You can optionally specify how large the candles prior to Harami/Doji are in pips, default is 0 pip.
If you set this to zero then it will have no candle size consideration. You can also specify how many look back candles (1-3) are used in Harami/Doji calculations (default 3).
Included option to perform Calculations purely on Heikin Ashi candles, this helps when you want to see the HA Doji/Harami bars with the normal candle stick chart.
Also can optionally set an alert condition for when Harami/Doji found, this also displays a circle on the bottom of the screen when alert is triggered.
extended session - Regular Opening-Range- JayyOpening Range and some other scripts updated to plot correctly (see comments below.) There are three variations of the fibonacci expansion beyond the opening range and retracements within the opening range of the US Market session - I have not put in the script for the other markets yet.
The three scripts have different uses and strengths:
The extended session script (with the script here below) will plot the opening range whether you are using the extended session or the regular session. (that is to say whether "ext" in the lower right hand corner is highlighted or not.). While in the extended session the opening range has some plotting issues with periods like 13 minutes or any period that is not divisible into 330 mins with a round number outcome (eg 330/60 =5.5. Therefore an hour long opening range has problems in the extended session.
The pre session script is only for the premarket. You can select any opening range period you like. I have set the opening range to be the full premarket session. If you select a different session you will have to unselect "pre open to 9:30 EST for Opening Range?" in the format section. The script defaults to 15 minutes in the "period Of Pre Opening Range?". To go back to the 4 am to 9:30 pre opening range select "pre open to 9:30 EST for Opening Range?" there is no automatic 330 minute selection.
The past days offset script only works in 5 min or 15 minute period. It will show the opening range from up to 20 days past over the current days price action. Use this for the regular session only. 0 shows the current day's opening range. Use the positive integers for number of days back ie 1, 2, 3 etc not -1, -2, -3 etc. The script is preprogrammed to use the current day (0).
Scripts updated to plot correctly: One thing they all have in common is a way of they deal with a somewhat random problem that shifts the plots 4 hours in one direction or the other ie the plot started at 9:30 EST or 1:30PM EST. This issue started to occur approximately June 22, 2015 and impacts any script that tried to use "session" times to manage a plot in my scripts. The issue now seems to have been resolved during this past week.
Just in case the problem reoccurs I have added a "Switch session plot?" to each script. If the plot looks funny check or uncheck the "Switch session plot?" and see the difference. Of course if a new issue crops up it will likely require a different fix.
I have updated all of the scripts shown on this chart. If you are using a script of mine that suffers from the compiler issue then you will find an update on this chart. You can get any and all of the scripts by clicking on the small sideways wishbone on the left middle of the chart. You will see a dialogue box. Then click "make it mine". This will import all of the scripts to your computer and you can play around with them all to decide what you want and what you don't want. This is the easiest way to get all of the scripts in one fell swoop. It is also the easiest way for me to make all of the scripts available. I do not have all of the plots visible since it is too messy and one of the scripts (pre OR) is only for the regular session. To view the scripts click on the blue eye to the right of the script title to show it on this script. If you can only use the regular session. The scripts will all (with the exception of the pre OR) work fine.
If for any reason this script seems flakey refresh the page r try a slightly different period. I have noticed that sometimes randomly the script loves to return to the 5 min OR. This is a very new issue transient issue. As always if you see an issue please let me know.
Cheers Jayy
Camarilla - formula updated for 5 and 6 levelsSince levels 5 and 6 formulas are kind of surrounded in mystery it's difficult to find a widely agreed one.
While for the level 5 there is some consensus the 6th one is hard to find. I updated level 5 with the most common use of lvl 5 formula , some links like this one or from books (Secrets of a Pivot Boss) . Level 6 is a tough one, so please use this one experimentally . If you have other formulas for level 6, let me know. The 5 and 6 lvls are useful in volatile days.

RSI ADX Bollinger Analysis High-level purpose and design philosophy
This indicator — RSI-ADX-Bollinger Analysis — is a compact, educational market-analysis toolkit that blends momentum (RSI), trend strength (ADX), volatility structure (Bollinger Bands) and simple volumetrics to provide traders a snapshot of market condition and trade idea quality. The design philosophy is explicit and layered: use each component to answer a different question about price action (momentum, conviction, volatility, participation), then combine answers to form a more robust, explainable signal. The mashup is intended for analysis and learning, not automatic execution: it surfaces the why behind signals so traders can test, learn and apply rules with risk management.
________________________________________
What each indicator contributes (component-by-component)
RSI (Relative Strength Index) — role and behavior: RSI measures short-term momentum by comparing recent gains to recent losses. A high RSI (near or above the overbought threshold) indicates strong recent buying pressure and potential exhaustion if price is extended. A low RSI (near or below the oversold threshold) indicates strong recent selling pressure and potential exhaustion or a value area for mean-reversion. In this dashboard RSI is used as the primary momentum trigger: it helps identify whether price is locally over-extended on the buy or sell side.
ADX (Average Directional Index) — role and behavior: ADX measures trend strength independently of direction. When ADX rises above a chosen threshold (e.g., 25), it signals that the market is trending with conviction; ADX below the threshold suggests range or weak trend. Because patterns and momentum signals perform differently in trending vs. ranging markets, ADX is used here as a filter: only when ADX indicates sufficient directional strength does the system treat RSI+BB breakouts as meaningful trade candidates.
Bollinger Bands — role and behavior: Bollinger Bands (20-period basis ± N standard deviations) show volatility envelope and relative price position vs. a volatility-adjusted mean. Price outside the upper band suggests pronounced extension relative to recent volatility; price outside the lower band suggests extended weakness. A band expansion (increasing width) signals volatility breakout potential; contraction signals range-bound conditions and potential squeeze. In this dashboard, Bollinger Bands provide the volatility/structural context: RSI extremes plus price beyond the band imply a stronger, volatility-backed move.
Volume split & basic MA trend — role and behavior: Buy-like and sell-like volume (simple heuristic using close>open or closeopen) or sell-like (close1.2 for validation and compare win rate and expectancy.
4. TF alignment: Accept signals only when higher timeframe (e.g., 4h) trend agrees — compare results.
5. Parameter sensitivity: Vary RSI threshold (70/30 vs 80/20), Bollinger stddev (2 vs 2.5), and ADX threshold (25 vs 30) and measure stability of results.
These exercises teach both statistical thinking and the specific failure modes of the mashup.
________________________________________
Limitations, failure modes and caveats (explicit & teachable)
• ADX and Bollinger measures lag during fast-moving news events — signals can be late or wrong during earnings, macro shocks, or illiquid sessions.
• Volume classification by open/close is a heuristic; it does not equal TAPEDATA, footprint or signed volume. Use it as supportive evidence, not definitive proof.
• RSI can remain overbought or oversold for extended stretches in persistent trends — relying solely on RSI extremes without ADX or BB context invites large drawdowns.
• Small-cap or low-liquidity instruments yield noisy band behavior and unreliable volume ratios.
Being explicit about these limitations is a strong point in a TradingView description — it demonstrates transparency and educational intent.
________________________________________
Originality & mashup justification (text you can paste)
This script intentionally combines classical momentum (RSI), volatility envelope (Bollinger Bands) and trend-strength (ADX) because each indicator answers a different and complementary question: RSI answers is price locally extreme?, Bollinger answers is price outside normal volatility?, and ADX answers is the market moving with conviction?. Volume participation then acts as a practical check for real market involvement. This combination is not a simple “indicator mashup”; it is a designed ensemble where each element reduces the others’ failure modes and together produce a teachable, testable signal framework. The script’s purpose is educational and analytical — to show traders how to interpret the interplay of momentum, volatility, and trend strength.

TradingView publication guidance & compliance checklist
To satisfy TradingView rules about mashups and descriptions, include the following items in your script description (without exposing source code):
1. Purpose statement: One or two lines describing the script’s objective (educational multi-indicator market overview and idea filter).
2. Component list: Name the major modules (RSI, Bollinger Bands, ADX, volume heuristic, SMA trend checks, signal tracking) and one-sentence reason for each.
3. How they interact: A succinct non-code explanation: “RSI finds momentum extremes; Bollinger confirms volatility expansion; ADX confirms trend strength; all three must align for a BUY/SELL.”
4. Inputs: List adjustable inputs (RSI length and thresholds, BB length & stddev, ADX threshold & smoothing, volume MA, table position/size).
5. Usage instructions: Short workflow (check TF alignment → confirm participation → define stop & R:R → backtest).
6. Limitations & assumptions: Explicitly state volume is approximated, ADX has lag, and avoid promising guaranteed profits.
7. Non-promotional language: No external contact info, ads, claims of exclusivity or guaranteed outcomes.
8. Trademark clause: If you used trademark symbols, remove or provide registration proof.
9. Risk disclaimer: Add the copy-ready disclaimer below.
This matches TradingView’s request for meaningful descriptions that explain originality and inter-component reasoning.

Advanced RSI-ADX-Bollinger Market Overview — educational multi-indicator dashboard. This script combines RSI (momentum extremes), Bollinger Bands (volatility envelope and band expansion), ADX (trend strength), simple SMA trend bias and a basic buy/sell volume heuristic to surface high-quality idea candidates. Signals require alignment of momentum, volatility expansion and rising ADX; volume participation is displayed to support signal confidence. Inputs are configurable (RSI length/levels, BB length/stddev, ADX length/threshold, volume MA, display options). This tool is intended for analysis and learning — not for automated execution. Users should back test and apply robust risk management. Limitations: volume classification here is a heuristic (close>open), ADX and BB measures lag in fast news events, and results vary by instrument liquidity.

EMA Cross Alert V666 [noFuck]EMA Cross Alert — What it does
EMA Cross Alert watches three EMAs (Short, Mid, Long), detects their crossovers, and reports exactly one signal per bar by priority: EARLY > Short/Mid > Mid/Long > Short/Long. Optional EARLY mode pings when Short crosses Long while Mid is still between them—your polite early heads-up.
Why you might like it
Three crossover types: s/m, m/l, s/l
EARLY detection: earlier hints, not hype
One signal per bar: less noise, more focus
Clear visuals: tags, big cross at signal price, EARLY triangles
Alert-ready: dynamic alert text on bar close + static alertconditions for UI
Inputs (plain English)
Short/Mid/Long EMA length — how fast each EMA reacts
Extra EMA length (visual only) — context EMA; does not affect signals
Price source — e.g., Close
Show cross tags / EARLY triangles / large cross — visual toggles
Enable EARLY signals (Short/Long before Mid) — turn early pings on/off
Count Mid EMA as "between" even when equal (inclusive) — ON: Mid counts even if exactly equal to Short or Long; OFF (default): Mid must be strictly between them
Enable dynamic alerts (one per bar close) — master alert switch
Alert on Short/Mid, Mid/Long, Short/Long, EARLY — per-signal alert toggles
Quick tips
Start with defaults; if you want more EARLY on smooth/low-TF markets, turn “inclusive” ON
Bigger lengths = calmer trend-following; smaller = faster but choppier
Combine with volume/structure/risk rules—the indicator is the drummer, not the whole band
Disclaimer
Alerts, labels, and triangles are not trade ideas or financial advice. They are informational signals only. You are responsible for entries, exits, risk, and position sizing. Past performance is yesterday; the future is fashionably late.

Pivot Points mura visionWhat it is
A clean, single-set pivot overlay that lets you choose the pivot type (Traditional/Fibonacci), the anchor timeframe (Daily/Weekly/Monthly/Quarterly, or Auto), and fully customize colors, line width/style , and labels . The script never draws duplicate sets—exactly one pivot pack is displayed for the chosen (or auto-detected) anchor.
How it works
Pivots are computed with ta.pivot_point_levels() for the selected anchor timeframe .
The script supports the standard 7 levels: P, R1/S1, R2/S2, R3/S3 .
Lines span exactly one anchor period forward from the current bar time.
Label suffix shows the anchor source: D (Daily), W (Weekly), M (Monthly), Q (Quarterly).
Auto-anchor logic
Intraday ≤ 15 min → Daily pivots (D)
Intraday 20–120 min → Weekly pivots (W)
Intraday > 120 min (3–4 h) → Monthly pivots (M)
Daily and above → Quarterly pivots (Q)
This keeps the chart readable while matching the most common trader expectations across timeframes.
Inputs
Pivot Type — Traditional or Fibonacci.
Pivots Timeframe — Auto, Daily (1D), Weekly (1W), Monthly (1M), Quarterly (3M).
Line Width / Line Style — width 1–10; style Solid, Dashed, or Dotted.
Show Labels / Show Prices — toggle level tags and price values.
Colors — user-selectable colors for P, R*, S* .
How to use
Pick a symbol/timeframe.
Leave Pivots Timeframe = Auto to let the script choose; or set a fixed anchor if you prefer.
Toggle labels and prices to taste; adjust line style/width and colors for your theme.
Read the market like a map:
P often acts as a mean/rotation point.
R1/S1 are common first reaction zones; R2/S2 and R3/S3 mark stronger extensions.
Confluence with S/R, trendlines, session highs/lows, or volume nodes improves context.
Good practices
Use Daily pivots for intraday scalps (≤15m).
Use Weekly/Monthly for swing bias on 1–4 h.
Use Quarterly when analyzing on Daily and higher to frame larger cycles.
Combine with trend filters (e.g., EMA/KAMA 233) or volatility tools for entries and risk.
Notes & limitations
The script shows one pivot pack at a time by design (prevents clutter and duplicates).
Historical values follow TradingView’s standard pivot definitions; results can vary across assets/exchanges.
No alerts are included (levels are static within the anchor period).
Market Pulse Dip RadarThis indicator is designed to help traders spot meaningful dips in price and then evaluate whether those dips are worth trading or not. It doesn’t just mark a dip; it also helps with risk management, trade planning, and filtering out weak signals.
Here’s how it works:
First, it looks at the recent high price and checks how much the market has dropped from that high. If the drop is larger than the minimum percentage you set, it marks it as a potential dip.
Next, it checks the trend structure by using two moving averages (a fast one and a slow one). If the fast average is below the slow average, it means the market is in a weaker structure, and that dip is considered more valid.
On top of that, you can enable a multi-timeframe filter. For example, if you are trading on the 15-minute chart, you can ask the indicator to confirm that the 1-hour trend is also supportive before showing you a dip. This helps avoid trading against the bigger trend.
Risk management is built in. The indicator automatically suggests a stop-loss by combining volatility (ATR) and recent swing lows. It then draws three profit target levels (1x risk, 2x risk, and 3x risk). This makes it easier to plan where to exit if the trade works.
A key part of this tool is the confidence score. Each dip signal is rated from 0 to 100. The score depends on how deep the dip is, how far apart the moving averages are, how healthy volatility is, and whether the higher timeframe supports the trade. The score is then labeled as High, Medium, Low, or Wait. This helps traders focus only on the stronger setups.
On the chart, dip signals are marked with a diamond shape under the bars. The color of the diamond tells you if it’s high, medium, or low quality. When a signal appears, the indicator also plots horizontal lines for the entry, stop, and targets.
To make it easier to read, there is also a dashboard box that shows the current score, quality, dip percentage, and suggested stop-loss. This means you don’t have to calculate or check different things yourself – everything is visible in one place.
Finally, it comes with alerts. You can set alerts for when a dip signal happens, or when it’s medium or high confidence. This way, you don’t need to stare at charts all day; TradingView can notify you.
So in short, this tool:
• Finds dips based on your rules.
• Filters them using structure, volatility, and higher timeframe trend.
• Suggests stop-loss and profit targets.
• Rates each dip with a confidence score.
• Shows all this info in a clean dashboard and alerts you when it happens.
