LS Volatility Index█ OVERVIEW
This indicator serves to measure the volatility of the price in relation to the average.
It serves four purposes:
1. Identify abnormal prices, extremely stretched in relation to an average;
2. Identify acceptable prices in the context of the main trend;
3. Identify market crashes;
4. Identify divergences.
█ CONCEPTS
The LS Volatility Index was originally described by Brazilian traders Alexandre Wolwacz (Stormer) , Fabrício Lorenz , and Fábio Figueiredo (Vlad)
Basically, this indicator can be used in two ways:
1. In a mean reversion strategy , when there is an unusual distance from it;
2. In a trend following strategy , when the price is in an acceptable region.
Perhaps the version presented here may have some slight differences, but the core is the same.
The original indicator is presented with a 21-period moving average, but here this value is customizable.
I made some fine tuning available, namely:
1. The possibility of smoothing the indicator;
2. Choose the type of moving average;
3. Customizable period;
4. Possibility to show a moving average of the indicator;
5. Color customization.
█ CALCULATION
First, the distance of the price from a given average in percentage terms is measured.
Then, the historical average volatility is obtained.
Finally the indicator is calculated through the ratio between the distance and the historical volatility.
To facilitate visualization, the result is normalized in a range from 0 to 100.
When it reaches 0, it means the price is on average.
When it hits 100, it means the price is way off average (stretched).
█ HOW TO USE IT
Here are some examples:
1. In a return-to-average strategy
2. In a trend following strategy
3. Identification of crashes and divergences

WhaleCrew OverlayThis overlay is all about looking for confluence, and this is achieved by combining the power of Support/Resistance trading and Moving Averages.
Features
Support and Resistance
Trend Visualization
Fib Ribbons
Moving Average System
Intraday Tools
Support and Resistance
This involves Daily Levels (High, Low, Open, and Range Center), Weekly Levels (Open, High and Low), as well as the Monthly/Quarterly/Yearly Open.
Automatically having these support/resistance levels on your chart no matter what timeframe you're on is a big advantage, they can be used as confluence levels for potential trades.
Trend Visualization
Our trend component visualizes the current trend using two moving averages. There are multiple inbuilt modes that should be picked based on your trading style.
Use this indicator as confluence and don't rely solely on it.
Fib Ribbons
Our Fib Ribbons are a bundle of multiple EMAs with custom timeframe built-in. Unlike EMA Ribbons our EMA lengths are only based on Fibonacci Numbers.
The numbers of EMAs is four by default (fastest: 8, slowest: 34), but EMA 5 & 55 can be manually enabled.
The ribbons will act as support in an uptrend and as resistance in a downtrend. A ribbon cross often indicates a potential trend change.
Moving Average System
Build a system around 2 custom moving averages for more confluence (supports custom timeframes and many moving average types).
The moving averages can be used for generating signals whenever they cross, or as possible support/resistance.
Intraday Tools
We also support intraday tools like VWAP (Volume-Weighted-Average Price) and TWAP (Time-Weighted-Average-Price).
They differ from normal moving averages by taking volume/time into account and will act as potential support/resistance (commonly used by big market participants).
Usage
You should look for price levels where moving averages and support/resistance are lined up for confluence.
Closely monitor price action near important price levels for potential trade setups:
Consolidation right below resistance is considered bullish
Consolidation right at support might be considered bearish
Watch out for rejections and retests (also counts for moving averages)

Martyv Technical Analysis KitThis indicator is being developed as a tool hopefully suited to both the beginner/amateur/hobbyist and possibly also the professional analyst/trader. The idea is that it would be a tool that can give you an instant ‘overview’ of a few different schools of measurement on any measurable asset. Makes for great training wheels or a primer for further analysis.
Out of the box settings will give you an AutoFib for the most recent low and high (with extension targets), a pair of commonly-used moving averages (50 SMA and 200 SMA), RSI (and/or many other) divergences on the chart, and candles colored according to current trend (Blue = Bullish Control, Purple = Neutral/Coasting, Red = Bearish Control) and intensity according to volume (Darker = High Volume/Increasing, Lighter = Low Volume/Decreasing). For more advanced traders/analysts, almost all settings can be customized, with multiple options and additional features.
*There are a lot of settings. Shrug. Wink. I tried to bundle them together, however there are a few that I use quite often and placed them at the top for easy access. If you have any suggestions as to what's super useful in the top area, lmk. Happy trading! -E
AutoFib
-Places an AutoFib for the most recent low and high (with extension targets)
-You can choose to "contain price action" inside a 0-1 fib retrace, or allow extension targets to automatically be used (potentially useful within Harmonic Trading among other things)
-Uses the Fast/Medium/Slow (Default) global inputs for fib lookback period (Defaults to 8/21/34 at the time of this writing, can be changed in settings)
-Customizable fib levels, colors, and styles
-Can choose between AutoFib with manually defined levels or SmartFib with levels automatically calculated, including extensions as needed
--Choose between only using the most recent confirmed fib retrace, or the currently developing (non-confirmed) fib retrace - this will also contain price action within a 0-1 fib
--Adds fib extensions as needed, you can define extension levels
-Can change the lookback period and turn the visible Zig Zag and/or AutoFib on/off
-Can turn Logarithmic on/off in settings
Divergence
-Can identify and mark divergences (regular and hidden) for MACD, MACD Histogram, RSI (Default), Stochastic (Default), CCI, Momentum, OBV, Diosc, VWmacd, and Chaikin Money Flow
-Can turn divergences on/off individually
-Can choose to show hidden divergence
-Uses the Fast/Medium/Slow global inputs (Defaults to 8/21/34 at the time of this writing, can be changed in settings)
Trend Channels
-Uses a Zig-Zag with a specified lookback period (can be changed in settings)
-Setting AutoFIb to a different lookback than Trend Channels yields interesting results imo
-Can turn channels on/off
-Can change the lookback period and turn the Zig Zag and/or Channels on/off
Trend Ribbon
-Uses the John F. Ehlers Supersmooth method on a specified lookback period (Default 14)
-Checks the current price action against the lookback period trend and if the Supersmooth signal aligns with the trend direction, it gives a strong signal (Bull/Bear). A continuation signal (Neutral) is given if these two don’t match, and often indicates trend continuation or trend reversal.
-Can turn supersmooth and/or matching bar repaint on/off
-Can choose between Bull/Bear/Neutral signals and only Bull/Bear signals
-Alerts available for Bullish or Bearish change
-Can choose current timeframe or any timeframe
Bar Repaint
-Candles colored according to current trend (Blue = Bullish Control, Purple = Neutral/Coasting, Red = Bearish Control) and intensity according to volume (Darker = High Volume/Increasing, Lighter = Low Volume/Decreasing). You can set candle color to reflect: Open/Close, Trend (Default), or an RSI Gradient. You can set candle intensity to reflect: Volume (Default), Momentum, RSI, or ADX.
Price Tag
-Price tag that sits neatly between the candles and the fib labels. You can turn this on or off.
SVA - Simple Volume Analyzer, by BlueJayBird [bjb] ENGLISH & SPANISH
------------------------------------- ENSLIGH
The idea was initially inspired in the concepts shared by @LazyBear on his indicator "Better Volume Indicator" (). But I found it somewhat complicated and dull. So I came up with this.
Concept:
It changes the color of volume bars based on surrounding volume changes.
Volume changes are plotted as volume MAs lines in the volume pane.
Whenever the volume is higher than these MAs, the bar changes color.
For this reason, the bar color change is RELATIVE TO the surroundings, because the color change depends on how far the MA has been extended due to sudden (or not) changes in the volume.
BAR COLORS:
Weak Green and Red: Low volume. The calm before or after the storm.
Normal Green and Red: Mid volume. Still low volume, you may get bored.
Yellow: High volume. Players are playing hard and harder.
White: Ultra-High Volume. The elephants stepped in.
NOTES:
SVA works better at lower timeframes. Though as far as I can tell, it works pretty well as far as 1D timeframe.
------------------------------------- SPANISH
La idea estuvo inicialmente inspirada en los conceptos expuestos por @LazyBear en su indicador "Better Volume Indicator" (). Pero lo encontré un poco complicado y falto de claridad. Así que me inventé este.
Conceptp:
Cambia el color de las barras basándose en los últimos cambios de volumen.
Los cambios de volumen son ploteados como lineas de medias móviles (MAs, es decir "Moving Averages") en la sección del volumen (chart pane).
En cualquier momento que el volumen es mayor que estos MAs, el color de las barras cambia.
Por esta razon, el cambio de color de las barras es RELATIVO a lo que está sucediendo alrededor, ya que el cambio de color depende de qué tan lejos el MA se haya extendido por causa de los últimos cambios (o no) de volumen.
BAR COLORS:
Verde y rojo apagados: Volumen bajo (Low Volume). La calma antes de la tormenta.
Verde y rojo normales: Volumen medio (Mid volume). Volumen todavía bajo. Es posible que te aburras.
Amarillo: Volumen alto (High Volume). Los jugadores están jugando duro.
Blanco: Volumen ultra-alto (Ultra-High Volume). Los elefantes entran a la cancha.
NOTAS:
SVA funciona mejor en temporalidades menores. Pero por lo que he visto, funciona bien hasta la temporalidad de 1D.
h4hdwm (updated)I put most importand moving avarages for most importand time frames together. When you whatching a graph you are sometimes missing another time frime very importand moving avarage and there is a reaction on price. with this multi time frame multi ma indicator you can see all of them at once. it makes a little mass if you let all of them together. so you might close some of them.
Bigger time frames Moving Avarages has ticker lines and bigger steps.
