RVOL/ExpVol/ATR/ExpRGives 4 values:
- Relative Volume: needs the first 5M candle to have closed to give a good value then updates every 5 minute throughout the day. Compares to the historical Volume on the last 30 days on the SAME time period from Open.
Most indicators compare to the average volume on any 30min period, thus highly overestimating the RVOL at Open when Volume is higher.
- Expected Volume on the day in Million of shares given the RVOL.
- Average True Range on the last 14 days
- Expected Range on the day given the ATR & the RVOL.
Warning: Expected Range is just an estimation from data I gathered but the Day's range can be way higher or lower than that. Also if RVOL > 3 then the estimation works less & less.
As this was originally coded just for me I don't ask user input for things like the lookback period or the refresh period. You have to make a copy & go in the code and modify it if you want to change it.
Also the data displayed is given for the candle on which your cursor is !
Works best on 5-minute and above chart timeframes.

Kaufman Efficiency Ratio-Based Risk PercentageOVERVIEW
The Kaufman Efficiency Ratio-Based Exposure Management indicator uses the Kaufman Efficiency Ratio (KER) to calculate how much you should risk per trade.
If KER is high, then the indicator will tell you to risk more per trade.
A high KER value indicates a trending market, so if you are a trend trader, it makes sense to risk more during these times.
If KER is low, then the indicator will tell you to risk less per trade.
A low KER value indicates a trending market, so if you are a trend trader, it makes sense to risk less during these times.
CONCEPTS
The Kaufman Efficiency Ratio (also known as the Efficiency Ratio, KER, or ER) is a separate indicator developed by Perry J. Kaufman and first published in Kaufman's book, "New Trading Systems and Methods" in 1987.
The KER used to measure the efficiency of a financial instrument's price movement. It is calculated as follows:
KER = (change in price over x bars) / (sum of absolute price changes over x bars)
The first part of the formula, "change in price over x bars" measures the difference between the current close price and the close price x bars ago. The second part of the formula "sum of absolute price changes over x bars" measures the sum of the |open-close| range of each bar between now and x bars ago.
If there is a high change in price over x bars relative to the sum of absolute price changes over x bars, a trending/volatile market is likely in place.
If there is a low change in price over x bars relative to the sum of absolute price changes over x bars, a ranging/choppy market is likely in place.
If you are a trend trader, you can assume that entries taken during high KER periods are more likely to lead to a trend. This indicator helps capitalize on that assumption by increasing risk % per trade during high KER periods, and decreasing risk % per trade during low KER periods.
It uses the following formulas to calculate a KER-adjusted risk % per trade:
Linearly-increasing risk % = min risk + (KER * (max risk - min risk))
Exponentially-increasing risk % = min risk + ((KER^n) * (max risk - min risk))
min risk = the smallest amount you'd be willing to risk on a trade
max risk = the largest amount you'd be willing to risk on a trade
KER = the current Kaufman Efficiency Ratio value
n = an exponent factor used to control the rate of increase of the risk %
Here is an example of how these formulas work:
Assuming that min risk is 0.5%, max risk is 2%, and KER is 0.8 (indicating a trending market), we can calculate the following risk per trade amounts:
Linearly-increasing risk % = 0.5 + (0.8 * (2 - 0.5)) = 1.7%
Exponentially-increasing risk % = 0.5 + ((0.8^3) * (2 - 0.5)) = 1.27%
Now, lets do the same calculations with a lower KER of 0.2 , which indicates a choppy market:
Linearly-increasing risk % = 0.5 + (0.2 * (2 - 0.5)) = 0.8%
Exponentially-increasing risk % = 0.5 + ((0.2^3) * (2 - 0.5)) = 0.51%
With a high KER, we risk more per trade to capitalize on the higher chance of a trending market. With a lower KER, we risk less per trade to protect ourselves from the higher chance of a choppy market.
Turtle Trader StrategyTurtle Trader Strategy :
Introduction :
This strategy is based on the well known « Turtle Trader Strategy », that has proven itself over the years. It sends long and short signals with pyramid orders of up to 5, meaning that the strategy can trigger up to 5 orders in the same direction. Good risk and money management.
It's important to note that the strategy combines 2 systems working together (S1 and S2). Let’s describe the specific features of this strategy.
1/ Position size :
Position size is very important for turtle traders to manage risk properly. This position sizing strategy adapts to market volatility and to account (gains and losses). It’s based on ATR (Average True Range) which can also be called « N ». Its length is per default 20.
ATR(20) = (previous_atr(20)*19 + actual_true_range)/20
The number of units to buy is :
Unit = 1% * account/(ATR(20)*dollar_per_point)
where account is the actual account value and dollar_per_point is the variation in dollar of the asset with a 1 point move.
Depending on your risk aversion, you can increase the percentage of your account, but turtle traders default to 1%. If you trade contracts, units must be rounded down by default.
There is also an additional rule to reduce the risk if the value of the account falls below the initial capital : in this case and only in this case, account in the unit formula must be replace by :
account = actual_account*actual_account/initial capital
2/ Open a position :
2 systems are working together :
System 1 : Entering a new 20 day breakout
System 2 : Entering a new 55 day breakout
A breakout is a new high or new low. If it’s a new high, we open long position and vice versa if it’s a new low we enter in short position.
We add an additional rule :
System 1 : Breakout is ignored if last long/short position was a winner
System 2 : All signals are taken
This additional rule allows the trader to be in the major trends if the system 1 signal has been skipped. If a signal for system 1 has been skipped, and next candle is also a new 20 day breakout, S1 doesn’t give a signal. We have to wait S2 signal or wait for a candle that doesn’t make a new breakout to reactivate S1.
3/ Pyramid orders :
Turtle Strategy allows us to add extra units to the position if the price moves in our favor. I've configured the strategy to allow up to 5 orders to be added in the same direction. So if the price varies from 0.5*ATR(20) , we add units with the position size formula. Note that the value of account will be replaced by "remaining_account", i.e. the cash remaining in our account after subtracting the value of open positions.
4/ Stop Loss :
We set a stop loss at 1.5*ATR(20) below the entry price for longs and above the entry price for shorts. If pyramid units are added, the stop is increased/decreased by 0.5*ATR(20). Note that if SL is configured for a loss of more than 10%, we set the SL to 10% for the first entry order to avoid big losses. This configuration does not work for pyramid orders as SL moves by 0.5*ATR(20).
5/ Exit signals :
System 1 :
Exit long on a 10 day low
Exit short on a 10 day high
System 2 :
Exit long on a 20 day low
Exit short on a 20 day high
6/ What types of orders are placed ?
To enter in a position, stop orders are placed meaning that we place orders that will be automatically triggered by the signal at the exact breakout price. Stop loss and exit signals are also stop orders. Pyramid orders are market orders which will be triggered at the opening of the next candle to avoid repainting.
PARAMETERS :
Risk % of capital : Percentage used in the position size formula. Default is 1%
ATR period : ATR length used to calculate ATR. Default is 20
Stop ATR : Parameters used to fix stop loss. Default is 1.5 meaning that stop loss will be set at : buy_price - 1.5*ATR(20) for long and buy_price + 1.5*ATR(20) for short. Turtle traders default is 2 but 1.5 is better for cryptocurrency as there is a huge volatility.
S1 Long : System 1 breakout length for long. Default is 20
S2 Long : System 2 breakout length for long. Default is 55
S1 Long Exit : System 1 breakout length to exit long. Default is 10
S2 Long Exit : System 2 breakout length to exit long. Default is 20
S1 Short : System 1 breakout length for short. Default is 15
S2 Short : System 2 breakout length for short. Default is 55
S1 Short Exit : System 1 breakout length to exit short. Default is 7
S2 Short Exit : System 2 breakout length to exit short. Default is 20
Initial capital : $1000
Fees : Interactive Broker fees apply to this strategy. They are set at 0.18% of the trade value.
Slippage : 3 ticks or $0.03 per trade. Corresponds to the latency time between the moment the signal is received and the moment the order is executed by the broker.
Pyramiding : Number of orders that can be passed in the same direction. Default is 5.
Important : Turtle traders don't trade crypto. For this specific asset type, I modify some parameters such as SL and Short S1 in order to maximize return while limiting drawdown. This strategy is the most optimal on BINANCE:BTCUSD in 1D timeframe with the parameters set per default. If you want to use this strategy for a different crypto please adapt parameters.
NOTE :
It's important to note that the first entry order (long or short) will be the largest. Subsequent pyramid orders will have fewer units than the first order. We've set a maximum SL for the first order of 10%, meaning that you won't lose more than 10% of the value of your first order. However, it is possible to lose more on your pyramid orders, as the SL is increased/decreased by 0.5*ATR(20), which does not secure a loss of more than 10% on your pyramid orders. The risk remains well managed because the value of these orders is less than the value of the first order. Remain vigilant to this small detail and adjust your risk according to your risk aversion.
Enjoy the strategy and don’t forget to take the trade :)

Standardized Median Proximity [AlgoAlpha]Introducing the Standardized Median Proximity by AlgoAlpha 🚀📊 – a dynamic tool designed to enhance your trading strategy by analyzing price fluctuations relative to the median value. This indicator is built to provide clear visual cues on the price deviation from its median, allowing for a nuanced understanding of market trends and potential reversals.
🔍 Key Features:
1. 📈 Median Tracking: At the core of this indicator is the calculation of the median price over a specified lookback period. By evaluating the current price against this median, the indicator provides a sense of whether the price is trending above or below its recent median value.
medianValue = ta.median(priceSource, lookbackLength)
2. 🌡️ Normalization of Price Deviation: The deviation of the price from the median is normalized using standard deviation, ensuring that the indicator's readings are consistent and comparable across different time frames and instruments.
standardDeviation = ta.stdev(priceDeviation, 45)
normalizedValue = priceDeviation / (standardDeviation + standardDeviation)
3. 📌 Boundary Calculations: The indicator sets upper and lower boundaries based on the normalized values, helping to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
upperBoundary = ta.ema(positiveValues, lookbackLength) + ta.stdev(positiveValues, lookbackLength) * stdDevMultiplier
lowerBoundary = ta.ema(negativeValues, lookbackLength) - ta.stdev(negativeValues, lookbackLength) * stdDevMultiplier
4. 🎨 Visual Appeal and Clarity: With carefully chosen colors, the plots provide an intuitive and clear representation of market states. Rising trends are indicated in a shade of green, while falling trends are shown in red.
5. 🚨 Alert Conditions: Stay ahead of market movements with customizable alerts for trend shifts and impulse signals, enabling timely decisions.
alertcondition(ta.crossover(normalizedValue, 0), "Bullish Trend Shift", "Median Proximity Crossover Zero Line")
🔧 How to Use:
- 🎯 Set your preferred lookback lengths and standard deviation multipliers to tailor the indicator to your trading style.
- 💹 Utilize the boundary plots to understand potential overbought or oversold conditions.
- 📈 Analyze the color-coded column plots for quick insights into the market's direction relative to the median.
- ⏰ Set alerts to notify you of significant trend changes or conditions that match your trading criteria.
Basic Logic Explained:
- The indicator first calculates the median of the selected price source over your chosen lookback period. This median serves as a baseline for measuring price deviation.
- It then standardizes this deviation by dividing it by the standard deviation of the price deviation over a 45-period lookback, creating a normalized value.
- Upper and lower boundaries are computed using the exponential moving average (EMA) and standard deviation of these normalized values, adjusted by your selected multiplier.
- Finally, color-coded plots provide a visual representation of these calculations, offering at-a-glance insights into market conditions.
Remember, while this tool offers valuable insights, it's crucial to use it as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, complemented by other analysis and indicators. Happy trading!
🚀
KD Momentum MatrixI believe many traders think that fluctuation is very troublesome. The money earned in the trends is easily lost in the fluctuation. Because it is hard to find the high and low points of range.
Indicator: KD Momentum Matrix is the best choice for analyzing fluctuation, with potential volatility reminder.
KD Momentum Matrix is not only a momentum indicator, but also a short-term indicator. It divides the movement of the candle into long and short term trends, as well as bullish and bearish momentum. It identifies the points where the bullish and bearish momentum increases and weakens, and effectively capture profits.
💠Usage：
Potential volatility reminder:
"strong" represents an increase in potential volatility, indicating that the fluctuation of the candles may increase in the future.
"weak" represents a decrease in potential volatility, indicating that the fluctuation of the candles may decrease in the future.
Momentum column:
·The short-term momentum column, the "green and red columns", represents the short-term bullish and bearish momentum, and is the main reference feature of this indicator.
·Long term momentum columns, known as "dark green and purple columns", represent long-term bullish and bearish momentum and serve as auxiliary reference feature.
Note: Long and short term momentum columns usually have the same direction, and in rare cases, they may deviate. Sometimes there may be overlapping long and short term columns. The reference bullish and bearish directions are consistent regardless of the long and short term.
🎈Tip I：
When there is a potential volatility reminder: "weak" or "strong", it is important to note that there may be something different on amplitude of fluctuation in the future. If you have a position, you need to think new about the direction of your position.
🎈Tip II：
Taking the main reference feature - the short-term momentum column as an example, when the momentum column changes from red to green, it indicates short-term bullishness, and there may be a small upward trend. If the price happens to be near the bottom of the visible range at this time, consider executing a round of opening long positions or closing short positions.
When holding a long position, the bearish signal indicated by the momentum bar is used for departure, i.e. the momentum bar changes from green to red.
🎈Advanced tip I：
Deviation. The long and short term momentum columns are mostly consistent, but occasionally there may be deviations, indicating intense competition between bulls and bears. In the short term, it is recommended not to engage in trading because of its high uncertainty.
🎈Advanced tip II：
Volatility indicators can also be used in trends, but it is important to remember the idea of following the trend. For example, when there is a callback during an upward trend, we choose to buy or add a long position when the momentum bar becomes a long signal.
*The signals in the indicators are for reference only and not intended as investment advice. Past performance of a strategy is not indicative of future earnings results.
Update -
Optimize the alarm function. If you need to monitor the "strong " or "weak" signal, when creating an alarm, set the condition bar to:
KD Momentum Matrix --> "strong " or "weak" --> Crossing Up --> value -> 1

TASC 2024.02 Price-Time Filtering█ OVERVIEW
This script implements a price-time trend filter proposed by Alfred François Tagher in the “Trend Identification By Price And Time Filtering” article from the February 2024 edition of TASC's Traders' Tips .
█ CONCEPTS
In his article, Alfred François Tagher proposed a rule set designed to minimize the impact of stochastic price movements, facilitating the identification of larger-scale trends. The rules are:
• If the most recent week's close exceeds the previous week's high, the trend is up.
• If the most recent week's close is below the previous week's low, the trend is down.
• The trend remains unchanged until one of the above conditions occurs.
Similar rules can also apply to monthly bars.
The author argues that this approach integrates characteristics of conventional price action and time dynamics filters, so he refers to it as price-time filtering .
█ CALCULATIONS
This script applies the above price-time filtering rules and offers multiple ways to view the results on a chart:
• In the "Oscillator" view mode, the script counts and displays the number of bars in the uptrend and downtrend.
• In the "Linebreak" view mode, the trend filter is presented in a format resembling a point-and-figure (P&F) chart , with the length of each bar corresponding to the high-low range of the respective trend.
• In both view modes, the script offers bar coloring of the main chart based on the identified trend.
FlexiMA x FlexiST - Strategy [presentTrading]█ Introduction and How it is Different
The FlexiMA x FlexiST Strategy blends two analytical methods - FlexiMA and FlexiST, which are opened in my early post.
- FlexiMA calculates deviations between an indicator source and a dynamic moving average, controlled by a starting factor and increment factor.
- FlexiST, on the other hand, leverages the SuperTrend model, adjusting the Average True Range (ATR) length for a comprehensive trend-following oscillator.
This synergy offers traders a more nuanced and multifaceted tool for market analysis.
BTC 6H L/S Performance
Local
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The strategy combines two components: FlexiMA and FlexiST, each utilizing unique methodologies to analyze market trends.
🔶FlexiMA Component:
- Calculates deviations between an indicator source and moving averages of variable lengths.
- Moving average lengths are dynamically adjusted using a starting factor and increment factor.
- Deviations are normalized and analyzed to produce median and standard deviation values, forming the FlexiMA oscillator.
Length indicator (50)
🔶FlexiST Component:
- Uses SuperTrend indicators with varying ATR (Average True Range) lengths.
- Trends are identified based on the position of the indicator source relative to the SuperTrend bands.
- Deviations between the indicator source and SuperTrend values are calculated and normalized.
Starting Factor (5)
🔶Combined Strategy Logic:
- Entry Signals:
- Long Entry: Triggered when median values of both FlexiMA and FlexiST are positive.
- Short Entry: Triggered when median values of both FlexiMA and FlexiST are negative.
- Exit Signals:
- Long Exit: Triggered when median values of FlexiMA or FlexiST turn negative.
- Short Exit: Triggered when median values of FlexiMA or FlexiST turn positive.
This strategic blend of FlexiMA and FlexiST allows for a nuanced analysis of market trends, providing traders with signals based on a comprehensive view of market momentum and trend strength.
█ Trade Direction
The strategy is designed to cater to various trading preferences, offering "Long", "Short", and "Both" options. This flexibility allows traders to align the strategy with their specific market outlook, be it bullish, bearish, or a combination of both.
█ Usage
Traders can effectively utilize the FlexiMA x FlexiST Strategy by first selecting their desired trade direction. The strategy then generates entry signals when the conditions for either the FlexiMA or FlexiST are met, indicating potential entry points in the market. Conversely, exit signals are generated when the conditions for these indicators diverge, thus signaling a potential shift in market trends and suggesting a strategic exit point.
█ Default Settings
1. Indicator Source (HLC3): Provides a balanced and stable price source, reducing the impact of extreme market fluctuations.
2. Indicator Lengths (20 for FlexiMA, 10 for FlexiST): Longer FlexiMA length smooths out short-term fluctuations, while shorter FlexiST length allows for quicker response to market changes.
3. Starting Factors (1.0 for FlexiMA, 0.618 for FlexiST): Balanced start for FlexiMA and a harmonized approach for FlexiST, resonating with natural market cycles.
4. Increment Factors (1.0 for FlexiMA, 0.382 for FlexiST): FlexiMA captures a wide range of market behaviors, while FlexiST provides a gradual transition to capture finer trend shifts.
5. Normalization Methods ('None'): Uses raw deviations, suitable for markets where absolute price movements are more significant.
6. Trade Direction ('Both'): Allows strategy to consider both long and short opportunities, ideal for versatile market engagement.

Modern Portfolio TheoryModern Portfolio Theory
The indicator is designed to apply the principles of Modern Portfolio Theory, a financial theory developed by Harry Markowitz. MPT aims to maximize portfolio returns for a given level of risk by diversifying investments.
User Inputs:
Users can customize various parameters, including the bar scale, risk-free rate, and the start year for the portfolio. Additionally, users can assign weights to different assets (symbols) in the portfolio.
Asset Selection:
Users can choose up to 10 different symbols (assets) for the portfolio. The script supports a variety of symbols, including cryptocurrencies such as BTCUSD and ETHUSD.
Weights and Allocation:
Users can assign weights to each selected asset, determining its percentage allocation in the portfolio. The script calculates the total portfolio weight to ensure it equals 100%. If total portfolio weight is lower then 100% you will see orange color with additional cash % bellow
If total portfolio weight is bigger then 100% you will see red big % warning.
Warning: (Total Weight must be 100%)
Cash Mode:
Risk and Return Calculation:
The script calculates the daily returns and standard deviation for each selected asset. These metrics are essential for assessing the risk and return of each asset, as well as the overall portfolio.
Scatter Plot Visualization:
The indicator includes a scatter plot that visualizes the risk-return profile of each asset. Each point on the plot represents an asset, and its position is determined by its risk (X-axis) and return (Y-axis).
Portfolio Optimization:
The script calculates the risk and return of the overall portfolio based on the selected assets and their weights. Based on the selected assets and their weights user can create optimal portfolio with preferable risk and return.
It then plots the portfolio point on the scatter plot, indicating its risk-return profile.
Additional Information:
The indicator provides a table displaying information about each selected asset, including its symbol, weight, and total portfolio weight. The table also shows the total portfolio weight and, if applicable, the percentage allocated to cash.
Visualization and Legend:
The script includes visual elements such as a legend, capital allocation line (CAL), and labels for risk-free rate and key information. This enhances the overall understanding of the portfolio's risk and return characteristics.
User Guidance:
The script provides informative labels and comments to guide users through the interpretation of the scatter plot, risk-return axes, and other key elements.
Interactivity:
Users can interact with the indicator on the TradingView platform, exploring different asset combinations and weightings to observe the resulting changes in the portfolio's risk and return.
In summary, this Pine Script serves as a comprehensive tool for traders and investors interested in applying Modern Portfolio Theory principles to optimize their portfolio allocations based on individual asset characteristics, risk preferences, and return
ATR TrendTL;DR - An average true range (ATR) based trend
ATR trend uses a (customizable) ATR calculation and highest high & lowest low prices to calculate the actual trend. Basically it determines the trend direction by using highest high & lowest low and calculates (depending on the determined direction) the ATR trend by using a ATR based calculation and comparison method.
The indicator will draw one trendline by default. It is also possible to draw a second trendline which shows a 'negative trend'. This trendline is calculated the same way the primary trendline is calculated but uses a negative (-1 by default) value for the ATR calculation. This trendline can be used to detect early trend changes and/or micro trends.
How to use:
Due to its ATR nature the ATR trend will show trend changes by changing the trendline direction. This means that when the price crosses the trendline it does not automatically mean a trend change. However using the 'negative trend' option ATR trend can show early trend changes and therefore good entry points.
Some notes:
- A (confirmed) trend change is shown by a changing color and/or moving trendline (up/down)
- Unlike other indicators the 'time period' value is not the primary adjustment setting. This value is only used to calculate highest high & lowest low values and has medium impact on trend calculation. The primary adjustment setting is 'ATR weight'
- Every settings has a tooltip with further explanation
- I added additional color coding which uses a different color when the trend attempts to change but the trend change isn't confirmed (yet)
- Default values work fine (at least in my back testing) but the recommendation is to adjust the settings (especially ATR weight) to your trading style
- You can further finetune this indicator by using custom moving average types for the ATR calculation (like linear regression or Hull moving average)
- Both trendlines can be used to determine future support and resistance zones
- ATR trend can be used as a stop loss finder
- Alerts are using buy/sell signals
- You can use fancy color filling ;)
Happy trading!

Momentum Bias Index [AlgoAlpha]Description:
The Momentum Bias Index by AlgoAlpha is designed to provide traders with a powerful tool for assessing market momentum bias. The indicator calculates the positive and negative bias of momentum to gauge which one is greater to determine the trend.
Key Features:
Comprehensive Momentum Analysis: The script aims to detect momentum-trend bias, typically when in an uptrend, the momentum oscillator will oscillate around the zero line but will have stronger positive values than negative values, similarly for a downtrend the momentum will have stronger negative values. This script aims to quantify this phenomenon.
Overlay Mode: Traders can choose to overlay the indicator on the price chart for a clear visual representation of market momentum.
Take-profit Signals: The indicator includes signals to lock in profits, they appear as labels in overlay mode and as crosses when overlay mode is off.
Impulse Boundary: The script includes an impulse boundary, the impulse boundary is a threshold to visualize significant spikes in momentum.
Standard Deviation Multiplier: Users can adjust the standard deviation multiplier to increase the noise tolerance of the impulse boundary.
Bias Length Control: Traders can customize the length for evaluating bias, enabling them to fine-tune the indicator according to their trading preferences. A higher length will give a longer-term bias in trend.
Z-score changeAs a wise man once said that:
1. beginners think in $ change
2. intermediates think in % change
3. pros think in Z change
Here is the "Z-score change" indicator that calculates up/down moves normalized by standard deviation (volatility) displayed as bar chart with 1,2 and 3 stdev levels.
ORB Algo | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ORB Algo indicator! ORB stands for "Opening Range Breakout" which is a common trading strategy. The indicator can analyze the market trend in the current session and give "Buy / Sell", "Take Profit" and "Stop Loss" signals. For more information about the analyzing process of the indicator, you can read "How Does It Work ?" section of the description.
Features of the new ORB Algo indicator :
Buy & Sell Signals
Up To 3 Take Profit Signals
Stop-Loss Signals
Alerts for Buy / Sell, Take-Profit and Stop-Loss
Customizable Algoritm
Session Dashboard
Backtesting Dashboard
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
This indicator works best in 1-minute timeframe. The idea is that the trend of the current session can be forecasted by analyzing the market for a while after the session starts. However, each market has it's own dynamics and the algorithm will need fine-tuning to get the best performance possible. So, we've implemented a "Backtesting Dashboard" that shows the past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker with your current settings. Always keep in mind that past performance does not guarantee future results.
Here are the steps of the algorithm explained briefly :
1. The algorithm follows and analyzes the first 30 minutes (can be adjusted) of the session.
2. Then, algorithm checks for breakouts of the opening range's high or low.
3. If a breakout happens in a bullish or a bearish direction, the algorithm will now check for retests of the breakout. Depending on the sensitivity setting, there must be 0 / 1 / 2 / 3 failed retests for the breakout to be considered as reliable.
4. If the breakout is reliable, the algorithm will give an entry signal.
5. After the position entry, algorithm will now wait for Take-Profit or Stop-Loss zones and signal if any of them occur.
If you wonder how does the indicator find Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones, you can check the "Settings" section of the description.
🚩UNIQUENESS
While there are indicators that show the opening range of the session, they come short with features like indicating breakouts, entries, and Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones. We are also aware of that different stock markets have different dynamics, and tuning the algorithm for different markets is really important for better results, so we decided to make the algorithm fully customizable. Besides all that, our indicator contains a detailed backtesting dashboard, so you can see past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker. While past performance does not yield any guarantee for future results, we believe that a backtesting dashboard is necessary for tuning the algorithm. Another strength of this indicator is that there are multiple options for detection of Take-Profit and Stop-Loss zones, which the trader can select one of their liking.
⚙️SETTINGS
Keep in mind that best chart timeframe for this indicator to work is the 1-minute timeframe.
TP = Take-Profit
SL = Stop-Loss
EMA = Exponential Moving Average
OR = Opening Range
ATR = Average True Range
1. Algorithm
ORB Timeframe -> This setting determines the timeframe that the algorithm will analyze the market after a new session begins before giving any signals. It's important to experiment with this setting and find the best option that suits the current ticker for the best performance. More volatile stocks will often require this setting to be larger, while more stabilized stocks may have this setting shorter.
Sensitivity -> This setting determines how much failed retests are needed to take a position entry. Higher senstivity means that less retests are needed to consider the breakout as reliable. If you think that the current ticker makes strong movements in a bullish & bearish direction after a breakout, you should set this setting higher. If you think the opposite, meaning that the ticker does not decide the trend right after a breakout, this setting show be lower.
(High = 0 Retests, Medium = 1 Retest, Low = 2 Retests, Lowest = 3 Retests)
Breakout Condition -> The condition for the algorithm to detect breakouts.
Close = Bar needs to close higher than the OR High Line in a bullish breakout, or lower than the OR Low Line in a bearish breakout. EMA = The EMA of the bar must be higher / lower than OR Lines instead of the close price.
TP Method -> The method for the algorithm to use when determining TP zones.
Dynamic = This TP method essentially tries to find the bar that price starts declining the current trend and going to the other direction, and puts a TP zone there. To achieve this, it uses an EMA line, and when the close price of a bar crosses the EMA line, It's a TP spot.
ATR = In this TP method, instead of a dynamic approach the TP zones are pre-determined using the ATR of the entry bar. This option is generally for traders who just want to know their TP spots beforehand while trading. Selecting this option will also show TP zones at the ORB Dashboard.
"Dynamic" option generally performs better, while the "ATR" method is safer to use.
EMA Length -> This setting determines the length of the EMA line used in "Dynamic TP method" and "EMA Breakout Condition". This is completely up to the trader's choice, though the default option should generally perform well. You might want to experiment with this setting and find the optimal length for the current ticker.
Stop-Loss -> Algorithm will place the Stop-Loss zone using setting.
Safer = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR High for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR Low for a bearish entry.
Balanced = The SL zone will be placed in the center of OR High & OR Low
Risky = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR Low for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR High for a bearish entry.
Adaptive SL -> This option only takes effect if the first TP zone is hit.
Enabled = After the 1st TP zone is hit, the SL zone will be moved to the entry price, essentially making the position risk-free.
Disabled = The SL zone will never change.
2. ORB Dashboard
ORB Dashboard shows the information about the current session.
3. ORB Backtesting
ORB Backtesting Dashboard allows you to see past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker with current settings.
Total amount of days that can be backtested depends on your TV subscription.
Backtesting Exit Ratios -> You can select how much of percent your entry will be closed at any TP zone while backtesting. For example, %90, %5, %5 means that %90 of the position will be closed at the first TP zone, %5 of it will be closed at the 2nd TP zone, and %5 of it will be closed at the last TP zone.

GARCH Volatility Estimation - The Quant ScienceThe GARCH (Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity) model is a statistical model used to forecast the volatility of a financial asset. This model takes into account the fluctuations in volatility over time, recognizing that volatility can vary in a heteroskedastic (i.e., non-constant variance) manner and can be influenced by past events.
The general formula of the GARCH model is:
σ²(t) = ω + α * ε²(t-1) + β * σ²(t-1)
where:
σ²(t) is the conditional variance at time t (i.e., squared volatility)
ω is the constant term (intercept) representing the baseline level of volatility
α is the coefficient representing the impact of the squared lagged error term on the conditional variance
ε²(t-1) is the squared lagged error term at the previous time period
β is the coefficient representing the impact of the lagged conditional variance on the current conditional variance
In the context of financial forecasting, the GARCH model is used to estimate the future volatility of the asset.
HOW TO USE
This quantitative indicator is capable of estimating the probable future movements of volatility. When the GARCH increases in value, it means that the volatility of the asset will likely increase as well, and vice versa. The indicator displays the relationship of the GARCH (bright red) with the trend of historical volatility (dark red).

Volume Exhaustion [AlgoAlpha]Introducing the Volume Exhaustion by AlgoAlpha, is an innovative tool that aims to identify potential exhaustion or peaks in trading volume , which can be a key indicator for reversals or continuations in market trends 🔶.
Key Features:
Signal Plotting : A special feature is the plotting of 'Release' signals, marked by orange diamonds, indicating points where the exhaustion index crosses under its previous value and is above a certain boundary. This could signify critical market points 🚨.
Calculation Length Customization : Users can adjust the calculation and Signal lengths to suit their trading style, allowing for flexibility in analysis over different time periods. ☝️
len = input(50, "Calculation Length")
len2 = input(8, "Signal Length")
Visual Appeal : The script offers customizable colors (col for the indicator and col1 for the background) enhancing the visual clarity and user experience 💡.
col = input.color(color.white, "Indicator Color")
col1 = input.color(color.gray, "Background Color")

Introduction
"Hedge Coin M - Statistical Support and Resistance" is a sophisticated, statistically-driven indicator designed specifically for traders in the COIN-M market on Binance. It offers a nuanced approach to identifying key market levels, focusing on the dynamics of support and resistance through advanced volatility analysis.
Foundation and Credits:
This script is an advanced adaptation of TradingView's standard code for the Bollinger Bands indicator. It extends the foundational concept of Bollinger Bands by integrating additional volatility metrics.
Calculation Method
This indicator employs Volume Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA) to create two distinct sets of Bollinger Bands, named BB-a and BB-b.
BB-a is derived from the VWMA of high prices, targeting potential resistance levels.
BB-b is based on the VWMA of low prices, aimed at identifying critical support levels.
Users can independently adjust the standard deviation (SD) multipliers for the upper and lower bands of both BB-a and BB-b, accommodating different market conditions.
Enhanced Volatility Analysis
The indicator calculates additional standard deviation lines for the upper band of BB-a and the lower band of BB-b. These lines provide deeper insights into market volatility.
Plotted Graphs
The primary plots include the upper and lower bands of BB-a and BB-b, marked in distinct colors for clarity.
Additional SD lines are plotted to indicate potential extended levels of support and resistance, offering traders a broader view of possible market movements.
Purpose and Usage
"Hedge Coin M - Statistical Support and Resistance" is designed to provide traders with a consistent, statistical method for identifying significant price levels.
It aids in scaling entry into positions, helping traders to navigate the COIN-M market with more informed decision-making.
This tool is especially useful for traders who combine long-term holding with swing trading strategies, offering a balanced approach to market engagement.
Integration and Adaptation
Easily integrate this indicator into your TradingView chart for the COIN-M market.
Use the insights provided to complement your overall trading strategy, particularly in identifying and reacting to significant market movements.
Disclaimer
Important Note: This indicator is provided for informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, trading advice, or any other sort of advice. Trading decisions should be made based on your own analysis, prudence, and judgment. Please be aware of the risks involved in trading and consult a financial advisor if necessary.
Activity & Chop ScoreRelease Notes:
The Activity and Chop Score was designed to help traders quickly determine if a market is active and/or choppy (not moving with any urgency). Slow and chopping markets should be approached with caution or avoided.
How does it work? The Activity Score incorporates momentum and the linear regression. Momentum (change in price over time) is compared over a long and short time period. Active markets are when those are moving together. This is combined with a linear regression of the price to determine the Correlation Coefficient (r^2) to measure of trend strength. The score is a is the average of the two momentum values, normalized by the standard deviation, and scaled by the trend (r^2 value). Chop is defined as divergence between long and short momentum periods. The divergences (chop) are quantified with a Jaccard Similarity Score, normalized by the standard deviation, and averaged to create a score.
How can you use it? This indicator is best used on lower timeframes. Activity Scores Values below 1 are considered low and values over 2 are high. Avoid markets where the Activity Score is below 1. There is an alert threshold in the options. Pivots are worth paying attention too as well as they indicate the start and stop of a recent move. You can compare markets or assets with the Chop Score. You make chose to avoid those with higher Chop Score. The position of the two lines relative to each other are useful. Ideally, the Activity Score is higher than the Chop Score. As with any indicators, it should be used in combination with others that best suits your trading style.
Zero-lag Volatility-Breakout EMA Trend StrategyThis is a simple volatility-breakout strategy which uses the difference in two different zero-lag* EMAs (explained below on what exactly I mean by this) to track the upwards or downwards strength of an instrument. When the difference breaks above a Bollinger Band of a configurable standard deviation multiple, the strategy enters based off the direction of the base EMA used (i.e. if the difference breaks above and the current EMA is rising, a long entry is produced. If the difference breaks above and the current EMA is falling, a short entry is produced).
The two EMA-type metrics used to calculate the volatility difference are calculated by the following formula:
top_ema = math.max(src, ta.ema(src, length))
bottom_ema = math.min(src, ta.ema(src, length))
ema_difference = (top_ema - bottom_ema) - 1
This produces a difference which responds immediately to large price movements, instead of lagging if it used strictly the EMA itself.
SETTINGS
Source : The source of the strategy - close, hlc3, another indicator plot, etc.
EMA Difference Length : The length of both the EMA difference statistics and the base EMA used to calculate the entry side.
Standard Deviation Multiple : The Bollinger Bands multiple used when the difference is breaking out.
Use Binary Strategy : The strategy has two configurations: Binary and Rapid-Exit. 'Binary' means that it will not close a long position until a short position is generated, and vice-versa. 'Rapid-Exit' will close a long or short position once the difference reaches the middle Bollinger Band MA. This means that turning on 'Binary' will expose you to more market risk, but potentially greater market return. Turning off 'Binary' will exit quickly and reduce drawdown.

Squeeze & Release [AlgoAlpha]Introduction:
💡The Squeeze & Release by AlgoAlpha is an innovative tool designed to capture price volatility dynamics using a combination of EMA-based calculations and ATR principles. This script aims to provide traders with clear visual cues to spot potential market squeezes and release scenarios. Hence it is important to note that this indicator shows information on volatility, not direction.
Core Logic and Components:
🔶EMA Calculations: The script utilizes the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) in multiple ways to smooth out the data and provide indicator direction. There are specific lengths for the EMAs that users can modify as per their preference.
🔶ATR Dynamics: Average True Range (ATR) is a core component of the script. The differential between the smoothed ATR and its EMA is used to plot the main line. This differential, when represented as a percentage of the high-low range, provides insights into volatility.
🔶Squeeze and Release Detection: The script identifies and highlights squeeze and release scenarios based on the crossover and cross-under events between our main line and its smoothed version. Squeezes are potential setups where the market may be consolidating, and releases indicate a potential breakout or breakdown.
🔶Hyper Squeeze Detection: A unique feature that detects instances when the main line is rising consistently over a user-defined period. Hyper squeeze marks areas of extremely low volatility.
Visual Components:
The main line (ATR-based) changes color depending on its position relative to its EMA.
A middle line plotted at zero level which provides a quick visual cue about the main line's position. If the main line is above the zero level, it indicates that the price is squeezing on a longer time horizon, even if the indicator indicates a shorter-term release.
"𝓢" and "𝓡" characters are plotted to represent 'Squeeze' and 'Release' scenarios respectively.
Standard Deviation Bands are plotted to help users gauge the extremity and significance of the signal from the indicator, if the indicator is closer to either the upper or lower deviation bands, this means that statistically, the current value is considered to be more extreme and as it is further away from the mean where the indicator is oscillating at for the majority of the time. Thus indicating that the price has experienced an unusual amount or squeeze or release depending on the value of the indicator.
Usage Guidelines:
☝️Traders can use the script to:
Identify potential consolidation (squeeze) zones.
Gauge potential breakout or breakdown scenarios (release).
Fine-tune their entries and exits based on volatility.
Adjust the various lengths provided in the input for better customization based on individual trading styles and the asset being traded.
HL range by durgaThe script we've been working on is an indicator designed to display the high-low range of the last candlestick on a TradingView chart. It does so by plotting two lines: one for the high and another for the low of the last completed candlestick.
Additionally, the script includes a label that shows the numerical value of the high-low range. This label is positioned between the plotted lines, showing the difference between the high and low prices of the last candlestick.
The script operates in real-time, updating dynamically as new candlesticks form. Furthermore, it automatically removes the label after the close of the candlestick, maintaining a clean and clutter-free chart.
This indicator can help traders quickly visualize and assess the range of the last completed candlestick, aiding in their analysis of price action.
