Educational Inidicators - Ichimoku CloudThis indicator is part of the Indicator Educational Series, intended to help newer traders understand and interact with various indicators. The goal is to allow users to gain a stronger understanding of an indicator's underlying philosophy, and visually see how changes to an indicator's parameters affects the trades suggested by that indicator.
The scripts in this series are all open source, with the code broken up into logical section and notated so beginner users can also understand some PineScript fundamentals.
Please understand that no indicator presented in and of itself constitutes a complete trading strategy. Rather, this series is to help users determine which indicators make sense to them, and which ones to combine to create their own trading strategy. All material presented is purely for educational purposes.
Presented here is the Ichimoku Cloud.
The Ichimoku Cloud was developed by Goichi Hosada, and first published in the late 1960s. It is used by traders to understand price momentum, and help forecast future price movements.
The indicator at its core can be understood from four component parts:
The Conversion Line - An average of the highest and lowest price in a given window. Typically, this is a "fast" average, and as such, this line has the lowest period
The Base Line - An average of the highest and lowest price in a given window. This is a "slower" average than the Conversion Line, and as such should have a larger period than the Conversion Line
Leading Span A - The average of the Conversion Line and the Base Line
[*}Leading Span B - An average of the highest and lowest price in a given window. This is the "slowest" average of all three, and as such should have the largest period
When plotted, the Conversion Line (orange by default), Base Line (purple by default), Leading Span A (blue by default), and Leading Span B (red by defaults) are all drawn on the chart along with the price candles. The area between the Leading Span A and Leading Span B lines are also shaded depending on which of the two lines is greater: whenever Leading Span A is greater the area is shaded positively (blue by default), whenever Leading Span B is greater the area is shaded negatively (red by defaults).
One interesting feature of the Ichimoku Cloud is that it drawn a certain number of candles forward. What this means is that where the cloud is drawn on the chart is reflective of prices that have occurred a number of candles in the past. This is done intentionally to help traders see how the current price is moving in relation to historical price movements on the asset.
See below for how the indicators look in their default colors on the chart
These indicators can then be used to start analyzing the price movement, and making trade decisions.
The first inference we can make is the momentum of the price. Since the lines are drawn from averages of varying speeds, the shaded area between the Leading Span lines can tell us whether the momentum is bullish (up) or bearish (down).
Whenever Leading Span A, the faster of the two lines, is above Leading Span B, that means that price is moving upward faster than it typically has, ergo we are in Bullish Momentum. On the chart, this is indicated in two ways:
The area is shaded positively (blue by default)
A green upward triangle is added to the chart to indicate where the momentum first turned Bullish
Whenever Leading Span A is below Leading Span B, that means that price is moving downward faster than it typically has, ergo we are in Bearish Momentum. On the chart, this is indicated in two ways:
The area is shaded negatively (red by default)
A red downward triangle is added to the chart to indicate where the momentum first turned Bearish
The next inference we can make is possible trading points. When we're in a period of momentum, as determined above, we know that price is going up or down, depending on the momentum we're in. We can then use the Conversion Line, Base Line, and the Price itself to confirm a good trade price.
When the asset is in Bullish Momentum, and the Conversion Line, our fastest average, is above the Base Line, our mid speed average, we know that the price is coming up quickly in the short term. When the Base Line and current Price are also above the cloud, then we have triple confirmation that price is going up, and we should enter a Long position. On the chart, this point is indicated with a green flag.
When the asset is in Bearish Momentum, and the Conversion Line is below the Base Line, we know that the price is going down quickly in the short term. When the Base Line and current Price are also below the cloud, then we have triple confirmation that price is going down, and we should enter a Short position. On the chart, this point is indicated with a red flag.
The script presented here also allows users to customize the various parameters of the Ichimoku Cloud, and visually see how analysis is affected by these changes. This is designed to allow users to modify parameters as they see fit, within certain constraints, to find the best set for them. The lines, cloud, and chart indicators will all update automatically with the users' inputs.

It regularly provides signals which would not be profitable.
It's meant to be used in conjunction with other analysis.
Think of this as a time-saving tool. Instead of manually checking RSI, DI+/DI-, bbands, distance, etc. this does all of that for you on the fly.
Z-ScoreDescription:
The Z-Score indicator is a powerful tool for assessing the relative position of a financial instrument's current price compared to its historical price data. It calculates the Z-Score, which is a statistical measure of how many standard deviations an asset's current price is away from its historical mean. This can help traders identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market.
Input Parameters:
Length: This parameter sets the look-back period for calculating the mean and standard deviation. It is set to 20 by default but can be adjusted according to your trading preferences.
How it works:
The indicator first calculates the mean (average) and standard deviation of the selected price source (default: closing prices) over the specified length.
The Z-Score is then computed by measuring how many standard deviations the current price is away from the mean. This value is plotted on the chart, providing insight into the current price's relative position.
Usage:
Overbought: When the Z-Score rises above the upper threshold (e.g., +2 standard deviations, shown in red), it suggests that the asset's price is significantly above its historical average, indicating a potential overbought condition. Traders might consider this as a signal to be cautious about entering long positions or to look for potential short opportunities.
Oversold: Conversely, when the Z-Score falls below the lower threshold (e.g., -2 standard deviations, shown in green), it suggests that the asset's price is significantly below its historical average, indicating a potential oversold condition. Traders might consider this as a signal to be cautious about entering short positions or to look for potential long opportunities.
The Z-Score indicator can be a valuable addition to your technical analysis toolkit, helping you make informed trading decisions based on statistical price deviations.
Please make sure to conduct thorough backtesting and combine this indicator with other analysis techniques before making any trading decisions.
Supertrend x4 w/ Cloud FillSuperTrend is one of the most common ATR based trailing stop indicators.
The average true range (ATR) plays an important role in 'Supertrend' as the indicator uses ATR to calculate its value. The ATR indicator signals the degree of price volatility. In this version you can change the ATR calculation method from the settings. Default method is RMA, when the alternative method is SMA.
The indicator is easy to use and gives an accurate reading about an ongoing trend. It is constructed with two parameters, namely period and multiplier.
The implementation of 4 supertrends and cloud fills allows for a better overall picture of the higher and lower timeframe trend one is trading a particular security in.
The default values used while constructing a supertrend indicator is 10 for average true range or trading period.
The key aspect what differentiates this indicator is the Multiplier. The multiplier is based on how much bigger of a range you want to capture. In our case by default, it starts with 2.636 and 3.336 for Set 1 & Set 2 respectively giving a narrow band range or Short Term (ST) timeframe visual. On the other hand, the multipliers for Set 3 & Set 4 goes up to 9.736 and 8.536 for the multiplier respectively giving a large band range or Long Term (LT) timeframe visual.
A ‘Supertrend’ indicator can be used on equities, futures or forex, or even crypto markets and also on minutes, hourly, daily, and weekly charts as well, but generally, it fails in a sideways-moving market. That's why with this implementation it enables one to stay out of the market if they choose to do so when the market is ranging.
This Supertrend indicator is modelled around trends and areas of interest versus buy and sell signals. Therefore, to better understand this indicator, one must calibrate it to one's need first, which means day trader (shorter timeframe) vs swing trader (longer time frame), and then understand how it can be utilized to improve your entries, exits, risk and position sizing.
Example:
In this chart shown above using SPX500:OANDA, 15R Time Frame, we can see that there is at any give time 1 to 4 clouds/bands of Supertrends. These four are called Set 1, Set 2, Set 3 and Set 4 in the indicator. Set's 1 & 2 are considered short term, whereas Set's 3 & 4 are considered long term. The term short and long are subjective based on one's trading style. For instance, if a person is a 1min chart trader, which would be short term, to get an idea of the trend you would have to look at a longer time frame like a 5min for instance. Similarly, in this cases the timeframes = Multiplier value that you set.
Optional Ideas:
+ Apply some basic EMA/SMA indicator script of your choice for easier understanding of the trend or to allow smooth transition to using this indicator.
+ Split the chart into two vertical layouts and applying this same script coupled with xdecow's 2 WWV candle painting script on both the layouts. Now you can use the left side of the chart to show all bearish move candles only (make the bullish candles transparent) and do the opposite for the right side of the chart. This way you enhance focus to just stick to one side at a given time.

[blackcat] L1 NinjaTrader ChannelNinjaTrader is a popular charting software widely used for trading analysis and execution in financial markets such as stocks, futures, and forex. It provides rich features and tools to assist traders in technical analysis, trade strategy development, and trade execution. When I discovered a built-in channel technical indicator in NinjaTrader and became interested in it but didn't understand its principles, I utilized my extensive development experience to simulate a similar version based on its characteristics, naming it "Ninja Channel" for reference only. First, I observed the characteristics and behavior of the built-in channel indicator. Pay attention to how it calculates and plots the channels, as well as its parameter settings and usage methods. This information can help me better understand the principles and functions of this indicator. Then, I attempted to simulate a similar channel indicator using my existing knowledge of technical analysis tools. I used charting tools and indicators to plot and calculate the upper and lower boundaries of the channel according to my needs and preferences. Please remember that this simulated version is for reference only; there is no guarantee that it will be exactly identical to the built-in channel indicator in NinjaTrader. The original built-in indicator may have more complex calculation methods with more precise results. Therefore, before engaging in actual trading activities, it is recommended that you carefully study and understand the principles and usage methods of the original indicator.
The Ninja Channel belongs to a type of technical indicator used for analyzing price range fluctuations and trends. It constructs an upper-lower boundary channel based on high-low points or moving average line fluctuations of prices to assist traders in determining overbought/oversold zones, trend strength/weaknesses,and price reversal points.
The main uses of Ninja Channel include:
1.Trend determination: The Ninja Channel helps traders determine price trends.When prices are located above half partofthechannel,it indicates an uptrend; when prices are located below half partofthechannel,it indicates adowntrend. Traders can formulate corresponding trading strategies based on trend analysis.
2.Overbought/oversold zones: The upper and lower boundaries of the Ninja Channel can be used to determine overbought and oversold zones.When prices touch or exceed the upper boundary of the channel, it may indicate an overbought market condition with a potential price pullback or reversal; when prices touch or fall below the lower boundary of the channel, it may indicate an oversold market condition with a potential price rebound or reversal.Traders can develop counter-trend or reversal trading strategies based on these overbought/oversold zones.
3.Dynamic support and resistance: The upper and lower boundaries of the Ninja Channel can be seen as dynamic support and resistance levels.When prices approach the upper boundary ofthechannel,theupperboundarymay act asresistance, limiting upward price movement; when prices approachthelowerboundaryofthechannel,thelowerboundarymayactassupport,limiting downward price movement.Traderscanmake trading decisions based on these dynamic supportandresistancelevels.
Of course, for this newly created indicator,some aspects are still unfamiliar.However,the learning process can refer to some common channel-type technical indicators including Bollinger Bands,Keltner Channels,and Donchian Channels. Each indicator has its unique calculation method and parameter settings.Traderscan choose suitable indicators according to their own needsandpreferences.
In summary,NinjaChannel is a type of technical indicator used for analyzingprice range fluctuationsandtrends.It helps traders determine trends,overbought/oversoldzones,anddynamic support/resistance levels in order to formulate appropriate trading strategies.However,technicalindicatorsareonly auxiliary tools.Traderstill needsto consider other factorsandsrisk managementstrategiesinorder tomakemore informedtradingdecisions.
[blackcat] L2 Market Facilitation IndexThe Market Facilitation Index (MFI) is a technical indicator that measures the ease with which the market is able to move based on the volume traded. It was developed by Dr. Bill Williams as part of his trading system.
The MFI is calculated by taking into account the difference between the current typical price (average of high, low, and close) and the previous typical price, multiplied by the volume. This difference is then divided by the sum of volume over a specified period.
The MFI helps traders to identify periods of high or low market facilitation. High MFI values indicate that the market is facilitating trade and moving with ease, suggesting increased activity and potential trading opportunities. Conversely, low MFI values suggest a lack of market facilitation, indicating decreased activity and potential consolidation or sideways movement.
Traders can use the MFI in conjunction with other technical indicators and price analysis techniques to make informed trading decisions. It can be used to confirm trends, identify potential reversals, and assess the strength of market movements.
The Market Facilitation Index provides valuable insights into market dynamics, as it focuses on the relationship between price movement and trading volume. By incorporating volume data into its calculations, the MFI captures the impact of volume on market activity.
This indicator is particularly useful in identifying periods of market consolidation or range-bound trading. When the MFI shows low values, it suggests that market participants are hesitant and there may be a lack of clear trends. Traders can interpret this as a potential signal to avoid entering new positions or to tighten their stop-loss levels.
Conversely, when the MFI indicates high values, it signifies that the market is experiencing high levels of activity and price movement. This can be an indication of a strong trend, and traders may look for opportunities to enter positions in line with the prevailing market direction.
In addition to identifying market trends and potential reversals, the MFI can also help traders gauge the strength of price movements. By comparing the MFI values during different price swings or trends, traders can assess whether the market is experiencing increasing or decreasing levels of facilitation. This information can be valuable in determining the overall momentum and sustainability of a trend.
It's important to note that while the Market Facilitation Index can be a useful tool in technical analysis, it should not be used in isolation. Like any indicator, it has its limitations and may not always accurately reflect market conditions. Therefore, it is advisable to combine the MFI with other technical indicators, chart patterns, and fundamental analysis to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the market.
In conclusion, the Market Facilitation Index is a powerful technical indicator that measures the ease with which the market is able to move based on trading volume. It helps traders identify periods of high or low market facilitation, confirm trends, identify potential reversals, and assess the strength of market movements. However, it should be used in conjunction with other analysis methods for comprehensive market evaluation.
The Opening Range / First Bar By Market Mindset - Zero To EndlesThe script shows the opening range of the instrument based on different resolutions and timeframes.
Inputs :
1. Resolution
It decides the calculation frequency of the script.
In Auto resolution, Standard values have been used.
2. Timeframe
It decides the timeframe for the OHLC values.
By default, it will use the chart timeframe and so chart OHLC values.
3. Lookback
It decides the no. of ranges shown on the chart.
Middle Line can be hidden from the settings.
The script can be used for any instrument and on any timeframe.

Fibonacci Ranges (Real-Time) [LuxAlgo]The "Fibonacci Ranges" indicator combines Fibonacci ratio-derived ranges (channels), together with a Fibonacci pattern of the latest swing high/low.
🔶 USAGE
The indicator draws real-time ranges based on Fibonacci ratios as well as retracements. Breakouts from a Fibonacci Channel are also indicated by labels, indicating a potential reversal.
Each range extremity/area can also be used as support/resistance.
🔶 CONCEPTS
Fibonacci Channels
Latest Fibonacci
Both, Latest Fibonacci and Fibonacci Channels , display different Fibonacci levels (labels not included in the code):
However, the 2 react in a totally different way.
🔹 Fibonacci Channels
2 conditions must be fulfilled until a Fibonacci Channel is displayed:
New swing high/low
close has to be between chosen limits/levels ( Break level )
As visual guidance, chosen Break levels are accentuated by 2 small gray blocks:
Once the channel is displayed, it will remain visible until x consecutive bars break out of the chosen Break level at closing time.
• x consecutive bars is set by Break count .
The amount of breaks is counted in the code. When the price, without breaking the user-set limit, closes back between the 2 levels, the count is reset to 0.
By enabling Channels and Shadows you can see previous channels (" Shadows ", which is always delayed with 1 bar)
Previous channels can be helpful in finding potential support/resistance areas, especially from large channel blocks
The more narrow Break levels are set the less chance the price closes between these 2 levels, and the quicker close breaks out.
In other words, narrow levels give fewer & smaller channels, broader levels give more & larger channels.
Note:
• swing settings: L & R
• Break count (x consecutive bars that close outside chosen levels to invalidate the Fibonacci Channel )
will also be of influence in displaying the channels.
• Show breaks enable you to visualize signals when there is a break:
• Alerts can also be set ( Break Down / Break Up )
🔹 Latest Fibonacci
This displays the Fibonacci levels between the latest swing high and swing low, independently from the Fibonacci Channel .
The Lastest Fibonacci can be helpful in detecting the current trend against the larger Fibonacci Channel .

[blackcat] L2 Zero Lag Hull Moving AverageZero Lag Hull Moving Average (ZLHMA) is a technical indicator that is based on the principles of Zero Lag Hull Moving Average (HMA). It is designed to provide a smoother and more accurate representation of price trends by reducing lag and improving the responsiveness of the moving average line.
Compared to traditional moving average lines, the Zero Lag Hull Moving Average has the advantage of being able to capture price trend changes more precisely. It achieves this by utilizing a higher degree of smoothness through the use of weighted moving averages, and by incorporating the calculation method of Hull Moving Average (HMA) to further eliminate lag.
The calculation process of the Zero Lag Hull Moving Average involves two main steps. First, the Hull Moving Average (HMA) is calculated by taking the difference between two weighted moving averages applied to the price data. This helps to smooth out the price fluctuations and reduce lag. Then, the difference between two weighted moving averages is applied once again to the HMA, resulting in the Zero Lag Hull Moving Average. This final step further enhances the accuracy and timeliness of the indicator.
The Zero Lag Hull Moving Average offers several advantages for traders. Firstly, it provides a quicker response to changes in price trends, allowing traders to make more timely and informed trading decisions. This can be particularly useful in fast-moving markets where speed is crucial. Secondly, by reducing lag, the Zero Lag Hull Moving Average helps traders avoid missing important market signals and potential trading opportunities. It provides a more accurate representation of the current market conditions, enabling traders to act with greater confidence.
However, it is important to note that the Zero Lag Hull Moving Average should not be used as the sole basis for making trading decisions. It is recommended to consider other technical indicators, as well as fundamental and market analysis, to gain a comprehensive understanding of the market dynamics. Traders should also conduct thorough backtesting and validation of their trading strategies to ensure their effectiveness.
In conclusion, the Zero Lag Hull Moving Average is a powerful tool that can enhance the accuracy and responsiveness of technical analysis. By reducing lag and providing a more accurate representation of price trends, it can assist traders in making better-informed trading decisions. However, it should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis methods for a comprehensive approach to trading.
Please note that the information provided by blackcat1402 is for educational purposes only and should not be considered as financial advice. It is essential to conduct thorough research, backtesting, and validation before implementing any trading strategies.
Momentum ChannelbandsThe "Momentum Channelbands" is indicator that measures and displays an asset's momentum. It includes options to calculate Bollinger Bands and Donchian Channels around the momentum. Users can customize settings for a comprehensive view of momentum-related insights. This tool helps assess trend strength, identify overbought/oversold conditions, and pinpoint highs/lows. It should be used alongside other indicators due to potential lag and false signals.
Nifty 50 5mint Strategy
The script defines a specific trading session based on user inputs. This session is specified by a time range (e.g., "1000-1510") and selected days of the week (e.g., Monday to Friday). This session definition is crucial for trading only during specific times.
Lookback and Breakout Conditions:
The script uses a lookback period and the highest high and lowest low values to determine potential breakout points. The lookback period is user-defined (default is 10 periods).
The script also uses Bollinger Bands (BB) to identify potential breakout conditions. Users can enable or disable BB crossover conditions. BB consists of an upper and lower band, with the basis.
Additionally, the script uses Dema (Double Exponential Moving Average) and VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) . Users can enable or disable this condition.
Buy and Sell Conditions:
Buy conditions are met when the close price exceeds the highest high within the specified lookback period, Bollinger Bands conditions are satisfied, Dema-VWAP conditions are met, and the script is within the defined trading session.
Sell conditions are met when the close price falls below the lowest low within the lookback period, Bollinger Bands conditions are satisfied, Dema-VWAP conditions are met, and the script is within the defined trading session.
When either condition is met, it triggers a "long" or "short" position entry.
Trailing Stop Loss (TSL):
Users can choose between fixed points ( SL by points ) or trailing stop (Profit Trail).
For fixed points, users specify the number of points for the stop loss. A fixed stop loss is set at a certain distance from the entry price if a position is opened.
For Profit Trail, users can enable or disable this feature. If enabled, the script uses a "trail factor" (lookback period) to determine when to adjust the stop loss.
If the price moves in the direction of the trade and reaches a certain level (determined by the trail factor), the stop loss is adjusted, trailing behind the price to lock in profits.
If the close price falls below a certain level (lowest low within the trail factor(lookback)), and a position is open, the "long" position is closed (strategy.close("long")).
If the close price exceeds a certain level (highest high within the specified trail factor(lookback)), and a position is open, the "short" position is closed (strategy.close("short")).
Positions are also closed if they are open outside of the defined trading session.
Background Color:
The script changes the background color of the chart to indicate buy (green) and sell (red) signals, making it visually clear when the strategy conditions are met.
In summary, this script implements a breakout trading strategy with various customizable conditions, including Bollinger Bands, Dema-VWAP crossovers, and session-specific rules. It also includes options for setting stop losses and trailing stop losses to manage risk and lock in profits. The "trail factor" helps adjust trailing stops dynamically based on recent price movements. Positions are closed under certain conditions to manage risk and ensure compliance with the defined trading session.
CE=Buy, CE_SL=stoploss_buy, tCsl=Trailing Stop_buy.
PE=sell, PE_SL= stoploss_sell, tpsl=Trailing Stop_sell.
Remember that trading involves inherent risks, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Exercise caution, manage risk diligently, and consider the advice of financial experts when using this script or any trading strategy.
Percentage Range Consolidation HistogramThe Percentage Range Consolidation histogram is a measure of volatility, ranking current price range compared to past ranges.
🟩 USAGE
Here there are 2 heavy contractions of price shown on chart that lead to a big rally. Shows a possible way to approach trading this. Take into account that this is for illustration purposes only and these entry methods have not been tested for long term profitability.
Same price behaviour.
🟩 CALCULATION
The script will use 3 different ranges all configurable by the user to check for low volatility on different zone lengths . On default zone 1 will be 10 period, 2 will be 30 period and 3 is 50 periods long.
It will then measure the percentage these ranges have from top (highest close) to bottom (lowest close) and plot those numbers as 3 gray histograms.
For each of these histograms separately it will use 'percentage zone PNR Length setting' as a lookback to rank current zone percentage compared to past results.
How it will do that is using the 'percentage zone PNR % setting' it will draw a line using ta.percentile_nearest_rank() formula. At default this is 20% meaning that only 20% of lookback values where below this level.
When the histogram is below this white line (small range compared to past ranges) it will color the histogram. Yellow for zone 1, orange for zone 2 and blue for zone 3.
There is also a 'Percentage zone % filter' which you can use as a maximum % current zone for it to be considered a small range. On default this is set to 15%. You can turn this off by selecting 'median' as 'Consolidation filters' instead of 'all' . Or only use this by selecting 'percentage'
🟩 BAR COLORING
Now that you understand how to find small ranges (contractions of price) with the indicator there is a bar coloring option in the indicator.
You can select how many of the 3 zones have to be ranging for it to color the bar. On default this is set to 3 so the script will only color when price is in a very small range. As illustrated by the above charts these can lead to the beginnings of big trends.
Relational Quadratic Kernel Channel [Vin]The Relational Quadratic Kernel Channel (RQK-Channel-V) is designed to provide more valuable potential price extremes or continuation points in the price trend.
Example:
Usage:
Lookback Window: Adjust the "Lookback Window" parameter to control the number of previous bars considered when calculating the Rational Quadratic Estimate. Longer windows capture longer-term trends, while shorter windows respond more quickly to price changes.
Relative Weight: The "Relative Weight" parameter allows you to control the importance of each data point in the calculation. Higher values emphasize recent data, while lower values give more weight to historical data.
Source: Choose the data source (e.g., close price) that you want to use for the kernel estimate.
ATR Length: Set the length of the Average True Range (ATR) used for channel width calculation. A longer ATR length results in wider channels, while a shorter length leads to narrower channels.
Channel Multipliers: Adjust the "Channel Multiplier" parameters to control the width of the channels. Higher multipliers result in wider channels, while lower multipliers produce narrower channels. The indicator provides three sets of channels, each with its own multiplier for flexibility.
Details:
Rational Quadratic Kernel Function:
The Rational Quadratic Kernel Function is a type of smoothing function used to estimate a continuous curve or line from discrete data points. It is often used in time series analysis to reduce noise and emphasize trends or patterns in the data.
The formula for the Rational Quadratic Kernel Function is generally defined as:
K(x) = (1 + (x^2) / (2 * α * β))^(-α)
Where:
x represents the distance or difference between data points.
α and β are parameters that control the shape of the kernel. These parameters can be adjusted to control the smoothness or flexibility of the kernel function.
In the context of this indicator, the Rational Quadratic Kernel Function is applied to a specified source (e.g., close prices) over a defined lookback window. It calculates a smoothed estimate of the source data, which is then used to determine the central value of the channels. The kernel function allows the indicator to adapt to different market conditions and reduce noise in the data.
The specific parameters (length and relativeWeight) in your indicator allows to fine-tune how the Rational Quadratic Kernel Function is applied, providing flexibility in capturing both short-term and long-term trends in the data.

Optimizing the parameters:
Lookback Window (length): The lookback window determines how many previous bars are considered when calculating the kernel estimate.
For shorter-term trading strategies, you may want to use a shorter lookback window (e.g., 5-10).
For longer-term trading or investing, consider a longer lookback window (e.g., 20-50).
Relative Weight (relativeWeight): This parameter controls the importance of each data point in the calculation.
A higher relative weight (e.g., 2 or 3) emphasizes recent data, which can be suitable for trend-following strategies.
A lower relative weight (e.g., 1) gives more equal importance to historical and recent data, which may be useful for strategies that aim to capture both short-term and long-term trends.
ATR Length (atrLength): The length of the Average True Range (ATR) affects the width of the channels.
Longer ATR lengths result in wider channels, which may be suitable for capturing broader price movements.
Shorter ATR lengths result in narrower channels, which can be helpful for identifying smaller price swings.
Channel Multipliers (channelMultiplier1, channelMultiplier2, channelMultiplier3): These parameters determine the width of the channels relative to the ATR.
Adjust these multipliers based on your risk tolerance and desired channel width.
Higher multipliers result in wider channels, which may lead to fewer signals but potentially larger price movements.
Lower multipliers create narrower channels, which can result in more frequent signals but potentially smaller price movements.
Nadaraya-Watson Envelope: Modified by YosietRange Filter indicator based on the LuxAlgo Nadaraya-Watson Envelope () indicator adding the SMA 30 high and SMA 7 low to predict the changes of the trends lines price.
WARNING: This indicator, as the same as the original, repaints the chart and could affect the exact values of the prices.
SMA Low 7 was identified using tensorflowJS years ago as accurate and abstract rsi indicator
SMA High 30 was identified using tensorflowJS years ago as accurate and strong trend line
This two SMAs were added to the original indicator Nadaraya-Watson to predict the exact points where the price will change direction or will re-test the trend to continue on.
The signals will act as the Williams Fractals, replacing the original signals of the indicator.
For those ICT/SMC traders, the bands and SMAs can toggle off in the settings of this indicator.
SETTINGS
Can set the source of the UPPER band indivuadilly
Can set the source of the LOWER band indivuadilly
Can toggle the visibility of the bands, this will not affect the calculations
Can toggle the visibility of SMAs
ALERTS AND SIGNALS
When the SMA LOW 7 cross under or over the bands, will trigger a signal orange
When the SMA 30 High cross over the upper band, will trigger a short signal purpple
HOW TO USE IT
If the both signals appears (sma 7 low and sma 30 high) crossing the upper band at the same point, this means that the price will drop strongly.
If the sma 7 low cross signal (orange triangle) appears under the price and lower band, means that the price will go up.
The separation of the signals from the chart will suggest the force of the movement. While more distance be, strongest reaction of the price.

ATR Clouds*Updated with Version 5*
ATR Clouds
The "ATR Clouds" indicator provides a visual representation of the stock's volatility based on the Average True Range (ATR) calculation. It operates by plotting two bands around the closing price of a stock, using the ATR as a measure of volatility.
Features:
ATR Calculation: The Average True Range is a commonly used metric to understand the volatility of an asset. The indicator calculates the ATR over a user-defined period, with the default being 14 periods.
ATR Bands: Using the ATR value, the script defines two bands:
Upper Band: This is calculated by adding the ATR value to the closing price of the stock. It represents a higher volatility boundary.
Lower Band: This is derived by subtracting the ATR value from the closing price. It indicates a lower volatility boundary.
Cloud Visualization: The space between the upper and lower bands is shaded to create a "cloud" on the chart. This cloud gives traders a clear visual cue of the stock's current volatility range. The cloud has an 80% transparency, allowing the underlying price chart to remain visible.
Customization: Users have the ability to adjust the period for the ATR calculation based on their preferences.
Usage:
Traders can use the ATR Clouds indicator to get a sense of the stock's volatility. Wider clouds indicate periods of higher volatility, while narrower clouds suggest lower volatility. This can be beneficial for se
Kviatek - Multi Hour VWAPThis is an experimental script, that plots 24 VWAPs, each starting at a new hour and lasting for 24hours.
After using session anchored VWAPs i kept wondering if the price reacts to VWAPs that begin at periods lower than sessions.
Color of each VWAP changes upon crossovers of the following VWAP, giving us an understanding of trends and whether we're trading with the trend or against it.
By the nature of the script I recommend using it on low timeframes, 5 and 15-minute ones ideally.
KSMT Toolbox - MidTFThis tool allows you to quickly identify the macro and micro trend's direction and enter and exit position at a more favorable price.
When the pink lines are angled up you should look for a long position and enter only when the candles are colored green.
And when the pink lines are angled down you should look for a short position and enter only when the candles are colored red.
This tool is only meant to be a practice tool and should be used to train your eye on candle movements to gain a sense of when you should enter/exit.
Practice is what differentiates a good trader and a bad one.
