[BM] SSS 50% Rule EvaluatorSara Strat Sniper 50% Rule Evaluator
█ OVERVIEW
This indicator is based on Sara Strat Sniper's - 50% Rule for trading Outside Bars and helps you to evaluate the historical success rate of that rule.
█ FEATURES
Calculation
• You can choose to evaluate only the current bar to see if it forms an outside bar (success) or not (fail), but you can also choose to include the next bar to see if that one forms a compound outside bar.
• You can enable a start and/or end date to limit the calculation period.
Table
• Show or hide the table with the calculation results.
• Show or hide the calculation details (up/down data).
• Position of the table, opacity, cell width and text size can be customized.
Colors
• Table colors can be customized.
• You can choose to show the inside/outside bars in customizable bar colors.
• You can choose to identify successful/failed/recovered outside bars in customizable background colors.
█ LIMITATIONS
• This script uses a special characteristic of the `security()` function allowing the inspection of intrabars — which is not officially supported by TradingView.
• Intrabar inspection only works on some chart timeframes: 5, 10, 15, 30, 45 and 195 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 hours, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 days, 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 months. The script’s code can be modified to run on other resolutions.
• There is a limit to how far back intrabar calculations can be performed, and is dependant on both the intrabar resolution and your subscription (which determines the number of available bars).

ETHE PremiumShows the premium/discount for Grayscale ETHE vs. the fractional amount of ETH per share held.
GBTC PremiumCalculates the historical and current premium/discount for a share of Grayscale GBTC vs. Bitcoin spot price.
Live off your portofolio (decumulate)This indicator simulates living off your portofolio consisting of a single security or stock such as the SPY etf or even Bitcoin. The simulation starts at a certain point on the chart (which you input as year and month).
Withrawals from the portofolio are made each month according to the yearly withdrawal rate you enter, such as the 4% SWR. The monthly withdrawal income is calculated in USD at the beginning of the retirement period and then adjusted according to the US inflation (CPI) on 01/01 of each year.
The blue graph represents the USD value of the remaining portofolio.
This indicator is meant to be used on daily, weekly or monthly time frame. It may not work properly (and makes little sense to use) on intraday timeframe or larger time frames such as quarterly (3M).
When withdrawing, the indicator considers that fractional stock values can be used (the portofolio value is kept as a float). This may not be true, as most stock brokers currently don't allow this.
It does not explicitly take into account dividends. In order to do this you will have to enable "Adjust for dividends" by clicking on "adj" in the lower right corner of the screen, or by using the indicator on a Total Return (TR) index such as DAX. Unfortunately SPX does not have dividend data, you will have to use the SPY etf (which doesn't have a long history)
Price Action [Morty]This price action indicator uses the higher timeframe SSL channel to identify trends.
The long entry signal is a bullish candlestick pattern when the price retraces to EMA20 in an uptrend.
The short entry signal is a bearish candlestick pattern when the price retraces to the EMA20 in a downrend.
Currently, this indicator shows engulfing patterns, pin bar patterns, 2 bar reversal patterns and harami patterns.
It also shows a volatility squeeze signal when the Bollinger bands is within the Kelter channels.
The buy and sell signal can also be filter by the ADX indicator greater than a threshold.
You can set your stoploss to the previous low/high when you go long/short.
The risk/reward ratio could be 1 to 1.5.
This indicator can be used in any market.
VixFix RVol + EMAThis indicator plots Realised Volatility (measured using VixFix method) against its long-term exponential moving average.
RVol breaking above its EMA = Sell signal
RVol breaking below its EMA = Buy signal
60-day VixFix look back period and 900 day EMA work well for lower volatility tickers (equity ETFs, megacap stocks). Higher volatility tickers could benefit from shorter look back period and EMA.
GreatBlueTradingTeam FibDev SignalsScript Purpose:
This script was designed to look for trend reversals and be used with other TA tools to help build confluence for day traders.
TA Used:
Without diverging too much information, this script relies on Highs, Lows, Opens, EMAs, Standard Deviations, Fib Numbers, and Fib Levels.
Script Overview:
First we look at the price action found on the Daily chart to create a set of zones using Fibs and Standard Deviations thats serves as our gauge on how far the price will move on any given day. Then, we create another set of zones ("intraday" zones if you will) that are built on much faster price action and relevant to the chart time period that is selected. These zones are also created using a combination of Fibs and Standard Deviations. From here, we compare the intraday price action with these two zones and look for areas where we feel overbought or oversold conditions are forming to create the bullish or bearish signals provided by the indicator.
Script Shortcomings:
Due to the fact this script is looking for breaks in trends, or trend reversals, it is subject to high risk especially in times of strong market trends where it could experience repeated failed signals. We recommend using this script in combination with other forms of TA for additional confluence as well as general market awareness that may influence trends and market behavior.

Bollinger Band Gradient (BBG)The Bollinger Band Gradient Indicator uses plenty of Bollinger Bands to create a gradient-looking indicator to help with layered entries . It is similar to a Ribbon but better. This indicator is best used with any volume-related indicator so you can recede from entering into any position with too much momentum to rebound off of any line. Note that this indicator is best used with another strategy like pair trading. It is not recommended to trade based on this indicator only . Please stay aware of any news about the stock you are trading because some events may have a big impact and force the market to go bullish/bearish by a lot. This indicator can be used with all chart types and works well with many other indicators. It allows for complete customization and offers easy-to-understand settings which can be designated to a certain individual. You can modify all settings for the BBs which allows for an even more personalized and adapted Indicator that reflects your trading/ investing needs. You also have the option to choose which type of MAs will be used to create the Bollinger Bands , a few of which include: SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, RMA, DMA, LSMA, VAMA, TMA, MF.
Bollinger Bands are a way to measure and visualize volatility . As volatility increases, the wider the bands become, and the more they deviate from the basis. Likewise, when volatility decreases, the gap between the bands and basis decreases. Yet a big advantage for not only this but many other indicators is created due to the ample count of different settings that are widely used, it is difficult to view the market through the eyes of all types of investors/traders . This indicator manages to counter exactly this issue, you will be able to see all of these settings on one chart and at one time and enter/exit positions accordingly.
Using this indicator will allow you to visualize entry and exit points with ease and make order layering (buying/selling in layers) much more simple. You can choose a certain amount of Bollinger Bands you would like displayed and customize all technical and style-related settings related to the BBs .
A few of the technical settings you can change for the Bollinger Bands are:
Bollinger Band count (Select how many BBs you want to be displayed.)
MA type used to make the Bollinger Bands ( EMA, SMA, WMA, etc.)
Source (close, open, high, low.)
BB length separately (The length of each Bollinger Band, its lookback. How many previous candles should it be based on? Choose each Bollinger Band's lookback length.)
BB deviator separately(The standard Deviator applied for the BB for both the upper and lower line.)
A few of the style settings you can change for each Bollinger Band are:
Fill (the color used to fill from the upper to the lower band)
Fill opacity % (the opacity used when filling the upper line to the lower line)
This indicator is unique because it can be used for all strategies and all trading styles , for example, day trading or long-term investing, really anything if used correctly. The reason it can be used in so many instances is a result of the detailed and in-depth settings tab that allows for complete customization. This allows the indicator to be used and to be useful in various situations and allows you to dominate the market. Integrated alerts also enhance your efficiency while using this indicator because you can choose to be notified at the crossing of any of the Bollinger Bands.
The technical part of this indicator plots the selected amount of Bollinger Bands using custom-built specified Bollinger Bands accordingly. Then it uses the style settings and styles it as you selected.
Bollinger Band Layer Entry (BBLE) The Bollinger Band Layer Entry Indicator uses plenty of Bollinger Bands to create an onion-looking layered indicator to help with layered entries. It is similar to a Ribbon but better. This indicator is best used with any volume-related indicator so you can recede from entering into any position with too much momentum to rebound off of any line. Note that this indicator is best used with another strategy like pair trading. It is not recommended to trade based on this indicator only.

Average Daily RangeRe-Re-upload!
There are a handful of decent Average Daily Range indicators out there.
Often they are built using Pinescript v2 (severely outdated) or have no customization or are "Closed Source"
In this version, you can select two multipliers to display on chart
Primary Mult - Large Green or Red crosses, by default set to 1 or 100% of ADR
Secondary Mult - Small Aqua or Maroon crosses, by default set to 0.5 or 50% of ADR

Bar StatisticsThis script calculates and displays some bar statistics.
For the bar length statistics, it takes every length of upper or lower movements and calculates their average (with SD), median, and max. That way, you can see whether there is a bias in the market or not.
Eg.: If for 10 bars, the market moved 2 up, then 1 down, then 3 up, then 2 down, and 2 up, the average up bars length would be at 2.33, while the average for the down length would be at 1.5, showing that upper movements last longer than down movements.
For the range statistics, it takes the true range of each bar and calculates where the close of the bar is in relation to the true low of it. So if the closing of the bar is at 10.0, the low is at 9.0, and the high is at 10.2, the candle closed in the upper third of the bar. This process is calculated for every bar and for both closing prices and open prices. It is very useful to locate biasses, and they can you a better view of the market, since for most of the time a bar will open on an extreme and close on another extreme.
Eg.: Here on the DJI, we can see that for most of the time, a month opens at the lower third (near the low) and closes at the upper third (near the high). We can also see that it is very difficult for a month to open or close on the middle of the candle, showing how important the first and the last day are for determining the trend of the rest of the month.
myRangestatCalculates the average daily range as well as the standard deviation of the daily range over a given period.
Adding both values gives you a statistical range (bottom to top or top to bottom) in which price can be expected to move.
pricing_tableThis script helps you evaluate the fair value of an option. It poses the question "if I bought or sold an option under these circumstances in the past, would it have expired in the money, or worthless? What would be its expected value, at expiration, if I opened a position at N standard deviations, given the volatility forecast, with M days to expiration at the close of every previous trading day?"
The default (and only) "hv" volatility forecast is based on the assumption that today's volatility will hold for the next M days.
To use this script, only one step is mandatory. You must first select days to expiration. The script will not do anything until this value is changed from the default (-1). These should be CALENDAR days. The script will convert to these to business days for forecasting and valuation, as trading in most contracts occurs over ~250 business days per year.
Adjust any other variables as desired:
model: the volatility forecasting model
window: the number of periods for a lagged model (e.g. hv)
filter: a filter to remove forecasts from the sample
filter type: "none" (do not use the filter), "less than" (keep forecasts when filter < volatility), "greater than" (keep forecasts when filter > volatility)
filter value: a whole number percentage. see example below
discount rate: to discount the expected value to present value
precision: number of decimals in output
trim outliers: omit upper N % of (generally itm) contracts
The theoretical values are based on history. For example, suppose days to expiration is 30. On every bar, the 30 days ago N deviation forecast value is compared to the present price. If the price is above the forecast value, the contract has expired in the money; otherwise, it has expired worthless. The theoretical value is the average of every such sample. The itm probabilities are calculated the same way.
The default (and only) volatility model is a 20 period EWMA derived historical (realized) volatility. Feel free to extend the script by adding your own.
The filter parameters can be used to remove some forecasts from the sample.
Example A:
filter:
filter type: none
filter value:
Default: the filter is not used; all forecasts are included in the the sample.
Example B:
filter: model
filter type: less than
filter value: 50
If the model is "hv", this will remove all forecasts when the historical volatility is greater than fifty.
Example C:
filter: rank
filter type: greater than
filter value: 75
If the model volatility is in the top 25% of the previous year's range, the forecast will be included in the sample apart from "model" there are some common volatility indexes to choose from, such as Nasdaq (VXN), crude oil (OVX), emerging markets (VXFXI), S&P; (VIX) etc.
Refer to the middle-right table to see the current forecast value, its rank among the last 252 days, and the number of business days until
expiration.
NOTE: This script is meant for the daily chart only.
Average Daily Range Fibonacci LevelsThe Average Daily Range is a simple concept, calculated as the difference between daily highs and lows averaged over some period. This indicator uses that range in conjunction with Fibonacci ratios to create zones centered on the day's open that tends to act as areas of support and resistance.
The thicker White lines are the ADR levels; all other lines are the same value adjusted by the various Fibonacci values.
A simpler version of this concept can be seen in my other script, Average Daily Range Zones, which does not include the Fibonacci ratio zones.
Thanks to @Hank Hill for the original idea and TV for the feedback and support on the use of the security() function.
Also thanks to @GoldenCross for the Fibonacci obsession.
Average Daily Range ZonesThe Average Daily Range is a simple concept, calculated as the difference between daily highs and lows averaged over some period. This range is is overlaid and centered on the day's open, and tends to act as areas of support and resistance . This indicator provides two aggregation periods, creating a range that represents volatility in the ADR; a wider spread indicates greater recent volatility , and vice-versa.
Thanks to @Hank Hill for the original idea and ToS script this is based on, and TV for the feedback and support on the use of the security() function.
tr_volThis indicator shows the annualized volatility, computed using the ewma method. It also uses average true range (ATR) as the daily return, rather than the typical close-to-close percentage change. You can uncomment the "comparison" series to see how it compares to the standard deviation, daily log return method. The standard deviation method weights all periods equally and doesn't account for intra-day ranges, meaning it is less responsive to new information than the ewma method and doesn't weight large intra-day moves as heavily.
The long-run median is also displayed. This feature sometimes fails if there are too many bars.
Volatility IndexThis indicator is based on Historical Volatility (HV) built-in indicator with minor tweaks to match the Bitcoin Volatility Index (from Bybt).
Also, you can select a symbol to compare its volatility with the volatility of the currently selected symbol.
Hercules Ultimate DCA™The Problem Most People Face When Trading & Investing:
If anyone tells you they know where the market is going, they’re either lying or they’re time travelers.
The truth is NOBODY knows whether the markets will move up or down tomorrow, next week, next year, or over any period of time.
If we all knew, we’d all be rich. What would suit most Investors is to Invest consistently over long periods of time into sound financial products.
When Creating This Investing Tool We Had 5 Requirements in Mind:
1. To create a tool that ANYONE with little to no experience could use to outperform 95% of traders and speculators.
2. To ignore the Charts, Candlesticks, Indicators, and Volatility in any market so you can rest easy at night, never having to look at the price of your asset and still remain profitable.
3. To create a tool that tells you exactly HOW MUCH to invest every day or week which takes the stress away in guessing which direction the market will go.
3. To minimize your risk and and exposure to downside even if you started buying a crypto at or near the top of a market.
4. To buy a crypto at or near the bottom of every single major swing or trend.
5. To make Investing Easy, Simple, and Fun for the average joe.
We achieved that goal with the Hercules Ultimate DCA™ Tool!
WHO Created it & HOW was it Created?
This tool uses complex math and an algorithm designed by a Quantitative Military Mathematician (who wishes to remain anonymous, so we’ll call him Satoshi) over a period of 5 and a half months.
To start, we wanted to keep things simple, and extensively researched 6 of the top investing strategies of all time:
1. Buy and Hold
2. Active Investing
3. Dollar Cost Averaging
4. Index Investing
5. Growth Investing
6. Value Investing
Most of the strategies above work well depending on your goals or how risk adverse you are, however most DO NOT check off all of the requirements we mentioned above. Comprehensive home-work and price-action history in Cryptocurrency Markets led us to the Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) Strategy.
According to Fidelity,
“Dollar Cost Averaging is a strategy where you invest your money in equal portions, at regular intervals, regardless of which direction the market or a particular investment is going. In other words, your purchases occur regardless of the changes in price for the stock or other investment, potentially helping reduce the impact of volatility on the overall purchase.”
With this in mind our High IQ math friend got to work and formulated over 17 Different Variable Algorithms on the DCA Strategy before arriving to the one we named Hercules Ultimate DCA™.
WHY the Hercules Ultimate DCA™ Works BETTER Than Anything Else.
Rigorous backtesting & forward-testing led us to create what we believe is the most effective and efficient strategy to extract the most money from the markets while at the same time minimizing nearly all the risk when investing your hard earned money in small increments in a truly effortless way.
The Hercules Ultimate DCA™ is essentially a DCA strategy put on steroids because no two investments are alike.
As we mentioned above, a traditional DCA approach assumes you purchase the same dollar amount of any asset at scheduled times, no matter where the price of your purchased asset is.
Example: If you have $1,000 dollars and decided to invest 50 dollars per week into Bitcoin, you would invest over a period of 20 weeks before you run out of money. Now, let’s assume the price of bitcoin is 50k during your first week, you would invest $50 dollars. Then next week the price rises to 60k, you would still invest $50 Dollars. The third week, if the Price of BTC rose to 70k, you would invest $50 dollars, so on and so forth. This approach is flawed because although you would still do better than many speculators and traders over a long period of time, it essentially leaves you penniless at the end of twenty weeks with no gunpowder left to buy BTC if it drops to all-time lows.
The Hercules Ultimate DCA™ works so well because it tells you to invest less as the price goes up and far more if the prices drops. What feels counterintuitive to most investors is typically what provides the most returns. Take the example above. If you have $1,000 dollars to invest weekly and Bitcoin currently sits at 50k, you would start by investing $50 dollars. Then next week, let’s say BTC rises to 60k, you would now invest $30 dollars. And your third week, BTC reaches 70k, you would now invest $10 dollars. Not only does strategy preserve your capital but it tells you to invest less into an asset at all time highs and far more into an asset at lows.
Now obviously the math in this tool is more complex, but it’s also more cost effective. At the time of writing this, the current Crypto Market has tanked from all-time-highs. Bitcoin currently sits at a price of $32,000 and is 51% down from its high of $64,900 dollars.
Just using this tool over the last 6 years, you would have invested a total of $5758.71 dollars and accumulated 4.328 Bitcoins for an average purchase of $1330.34 dollars. Your current Portfolio value would be $138,519.77 for a whopping percentage gain total of 2305%.
In other words, even with this massive crypto dump, you’d be rolling handsomely in your profits and you’d feel pretty smart too.
What’s more unique is that the Hercules Ultimate DCA™ will ALWAYS tell you to Invest More Dollars at the Literal Bottom of ANY market.
Dips in a market you believe in are far more exciting and will provide far more returns. The only way this tool fails is if the user (you) choose a market that goes to zero or is a rugpull.
How Do You Use the The Hercules Ultimate DCA™?
Step 1: Scroll to your “Invite-Only Scripts” in your indicators tab on Tradingview, then click on the indicator titled, “Hercules Ultimate DCA.”
Step 2: You should see the Indicator Populate at the Bottom of your chart with two lines, the Green line indicating how much you should buy that day, and the Blue line indicating how much of the asset you’ve purchased.
Step 3: (If you haven’t already) Make sure you turn on the Indicator Label. Navigate to the top right of the Crypto Product you would like to purchase and you will see a small settings gear. Once open, navigate on the left-hand side to the “Scales” tab and find the “Indicator Last Value Label.” Make sure it’s turned on and you will see the direct price.
Step 4: The amount you invest will now populate on the right hand side of the indicator with a number. That’s the exact dollar amount you invest in a disciplined manner no matter how large or small the number may seem.
Step 5: Get familiar with the indicator by opening the settings on the indicator itself. You will notice on the first tab it has a multiplier. If you increase it to 2, then the indicator will tell you to invest double the amount. If you input 10, then it will tell you to invest 10x the amount.
Step 6: Choose a Chart Timeframe and time of day to invest. If you choose to go with a once weekly investment then we recommend you increase your multiplier. If you choose a daily investment (and lack the necessary capital to invest large amounts daily) then we recommend keeping your multiplier down to lower numbers incase we see a lot of volatility. For most folks, once weekly on a 10x multiplier is most convenient. Set your chart to a weekly time-frame and increase your multiplier to 10. Then each week around the same time, you must invest.
Step 7: STAY DISCIPLINED. This method and tool only works if you invest the exact amount it tells you to invest over sustained periods of time.
Step 8: Enjoy Investing Made Easy 🙂
Ultimate Volatility Indicator [CC]The Ultimate Volatility Indicator was created by Richard Poster (Stocks and Commodities July 2021 pg 21) and this is a very simple but effective indicator. The idea behind volatility indicators is that when the indicator rises above a certain threshold then volatility is high enough and you can make a good amount of money riding the trend in the current direction and then exit when volatility drops below the threshold or until the underlying trend changes.
I have included a threshold that you can change from the default but I would recommend trying out different values to see what works best for you. This indicator will let you know as soon as volatility increases and reacts very quickly. I have included strong buy and sell signals in addition to normal ones so darker colors are strong buy and sell signals and lighter colors are normal signals. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Please let me know if you would like to see me publish any other indicators!

CUSTOM intraday volatility chart clockChart clock showing an overview of the day's expected and actual intraday volatility.
In white are only the expected volatility scores. The expected increase or decrease in volatility at any given hour of day compared to the average of the whole day's expected volatility. A 0.5 score two hours from now means that you can expect that hour to be 0.5% more volatile than the average of whole day's volatility.
In blue are the actual or realized volatility scores; the difference between that hour's volatility and what was expected to be its volatility is displayed as a blue bar. If two three hours ago was expected to be a more volatile hour of the day but no movement occurred, a large down bar will print for that hour.
Large swings of daily volatility (i.e. this month is much more or much less volatility than the last) will bias the clock usually only a little higher or lower, although historical volatility peaks/depressions will show the blue realized volatility score to be consistently high/low.
If requested I can change the look of the indicator or add input settings for the input length of clock, which for now is set to 20 bars, which is an approximation of the last month's realized volatility.
