Stochastic RMIThe Relative Momentum Index (RMI) is a technical analysis indicator used to analyze the price movements of assets in a financial market. Similar to the RSI (Relative Strength Index), it helps measure the momentum and strength of the asset's price movements over the recent period. However, the RMI offers a "smoother" view, unlike the RSI. This means that there is less "noise" in the indicator.
As is known, the Stochastic RSI indicator is based on the RSI. What I did was to create a stochastic based on the RMI. If you compare this indicator with the "Stochastic RSI", you will see that there is no difference between them, except that the "Stochastic RMI" is more "smooth" and noiseless.

Relative Strength Index Custom [BRTLab]RSI Custom — Strategy-Oriented RSI with Multi-Timeframe Precision
The Relative Strength Index Custom is designed with a focus on developing robust trading strategies. This powerful indicator leverages the logic of calculating RSI on higher timeframes (HTFs) while allowing traders to execute trades on lower timeframes (LTFs). Its unique ability to extract accurate RSI data from higher timeframes without waiting for those candles to close provides a real-time advantage, eliminating the "look-ahead" bias that often
distorts backtest results.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe RSI for Strategy Development
This indicator stands out by allowing you to calculate RSI on higher timeframes, even while operating on lower timeframe charts. This means you can, for example, calculate RSI on the 1-hour or daily chart and execute trades on a 1-minute chart without needing to wait for the higher timeframe candle to close. This feature is crucial for strategy-building as it eliminates backtesting issues where data from the future is inadvertently used, providing more reliable backtest results.
Example: On a 15-minute chart, you can use the 1-hour RSI to open positions based on higher timeframe momentum, but you get this signal in real-time, improving timing and accuracy.
Accurate Data Extraction from Higher Timeframes
The indicator's custom logic ensures that accurate RSI data is retrieved from higher timeframes, providing an edge by delivering timely information for lower timeframe decisions.

Elliott Wave Oscillator with Peak DetectionThe Elliott Wave Oscillator with Derivative Peak Detection and Breakout Bands is a technical indicator that blends traditional Elliott Wave theory with modern derivative-based peak detection and breakout bands for a clearer view of market trends.
Key Components:
Elliott Wave Oscillator (EWO):
The core of the indicator is based on the difference between two simple moving averages (SMA): a short-term SMA (default length: 5) and a long-term SMA (default length: 35).
This difference is expressed either as an absolute value or a percentage of the current price, depending on the user’s input.
Smoothing:
The EWO is smoothed using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to filter out noise and provide a clearer trend direction.
The smoothing length is adaptive based on the current chart's timeframe (e.g., longer smoothing for daily charts).
Derivative Peak Detection:
The smoothed EWO is analyzed for peaks (positive) and troughs (negative) by calculating the derivative (rate of change) between consecutive values.
Peaks are detected when the derivative transitions from positive to negative, while troughs are identified when the derivative switches from negative to positive.
Tolerance levels are adjustable and vary by timeframe to avoid false signals.
Breakout Bands:
Upper and lower breakout bands are dynamically generated based on the smoothed EWO.
The bands help to filter significant peaks and troughs, only highlighting those that occur beyond the breakout levels.
Users can choose to display these bands and use them to filter out less significant peaks and troughs.
Visualization:
The original, unsmoothed EWO is plotted as a histogram, with positive values in green and negative values in red.
The smoothed EWO is plotted as a blue line, providing a clearer view of the underlying trend.
The breakout bands, if enabled, are plotted as white lines to visualize the upper and lower bounds of the oscillator's movement.
Positive peaks and negative troughs that meet the filtering criteria are marked with purple triangles (for peaks) and red triangles (for troughs) on the chart.
Customization Options:
Timeframe-based Smoothing and Tolerance: Different smoothing lengths and tolerance levels can be set for daily, hourly, and 5-minute charts.
Breakout Bands: Users can toggle the display of breakout bands and adjust their visual properties.
Peak Filtering: Peaks and troughs can be filtered based on whether they break out beyond the bands, or all peaks can be shown.
This indicator provides a unique blend of trend detection through the Elliott Wave Oscillator and derivative analysis to highlight significant market reversals while offering breakout bands as a filtering mechanism for false signals.
Gaussian RSI For Loop [TrendX_]The Gaussian RSI For Loop indicator is a sophisticated tool designed for trend-following traders seeking to identify strong uptrends in the market. By integrating a Gaussian and Weighted-MA (GWMA) with the Relative Strength Index (RSI), this indicator employs a loop-based scoring system to provide clear signals for potential trading opportunities. The combination of Gaussian smoothing techniques and overbought/oversold filtering enhances the indicator's ability to capture significant price movements while reducing noise, making it an optimal choice for traders aiming to capitalize on robust upward trends.
💎 KEY FEATURES
Gaussian Weighted Moving Average (GWMA): Smooths price data to reduce noise and enhance responsiveness to significant price changes.
Filtered RSI: Applies the RSI to Gaussian-filtered data, allowing for more accurate momentum readings.
Wavetrend Analysis: Calculates the difference between the Filtered RSI and its short-term moving average, providing additional insights into momentum shifts.
Loop-Based Scoring System: Evaluates the strength and direction of uptrends through a systematic analysis of the Filtered RSI against defined thresholds.
⚙️ USAGES
Identifying Strong Uptrends: Traders can use this indicator to pinpoint periods of strong upward momentum, helping them make informed decisions about entering long positions and its exits.
Trend and Signal Confirmation: The Score confirms Long and Exit signals which traders can see through the Dots on the Gaussian RSI.
🔎 BREAKDOWN
Gaussian-Filtered Data:
The first component of the Gaussian RSI For Loop is the application of a GWMA to the sourced price data. This smoothing technique uses weighted averages based on a Gaussian distribution, which emphasizes more recent prices while diminishing the impact of older prices. This GWMA effectively reduces market noise, allowing traders to focus on significant price movements. By adjusting weights using sigma parameters, traders can fine-tune the sensitivity of the indicator, making it more responsive to genuine market trends while filtering out minor fluctuations that could lead to misleading signals.
Filtered RSI:
Next, the RSI is applied to the Gaussian-filtered data. The RSI measures the speed and change of price movements, providing insights into overbought or oversold conditions. By applying the RSI to smoothed price data, traders obtain a clearer view of momentum without the distortion caused by sudden price spikes or drops. This results in more reliable readings that help identify potential trend reversals or continuations.
Wavetrend Analysis:
The Wavetrend component calculates the difference between the Filtered RSI and its short-term moving average (MA). This difference serves as an additional momentum indicator. When the Filtered RSI is above its short-term MA, it suggests that upward momentum is strengthening; conversely, when it falls below, it indicates weakening momentum. This analysis helps traders confirm whether an uptrend is gaining strength or losing traction.
Loop-Based Scoring System:
Range Analysis: The system evaluates the Filtered RSI by comparing its current value against overbought (OB) and oversold (OS) thresholds over a defined range. This systematic approach ensures that each value within this range contributes to understanding overall trend strength.
Score Calculation: As the loop iterates through values within the defined range, it adjusts a score based on whether the current Filtered RSI and its previous values are higher or lower than established OB and OS levels. This scoring mechanism quantifies trend strength and direction.
Strong Uptrend Trigger: A strong uptrend signal is generated when the score exceeds a predefined Score Threshold (Long). This indicates that bullish momentum is robust enough to warrant entry into long positions.
None Trend: Conversely, if the score falls below the Score Threshold (Short), it suggests that upward momentum has weakened significantly, signaling potential exit points and it can be consolidated or downtrend.
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.

Adaptive Gaussian MA For Loop [BackQuant]Adaptive Gaussian MA For Loop
PLEASE Read the following carefully before applying this indicator to your trading system. Knowing the core logic behind the tools you're using allows you to integrate them into your strategy with confidence and precision.
Introducing BackQuant's Adaptive Gaussian Moving Average For Loop (AGMA FL) — a sophisticated trading indicator that merges the Gaussian Moving Average (GMA) with adaptive volatility to provide dynamic trend analysis. This unique indicator further enhances its effectiveness by utilizing a for-loop scoring mechanism to detect potential shifts in market direction. Let's dive into the components, the rationale behind them, and how this indicator can be practically applied to your trading strategies.
Understanding the Gaussian Moving Average (GMA)
The Gaussian Moving Average (GMA) is a smoothed moving average that applies Gaussian weighting to price data. Gaussian weighting gives more significance to data points near the center of the lookback window, making the GMA particularly effective at reducing noise while maintaining sensitivity to changes in price direction. In contrast to simpler moving averages like the SMA or EMA, GMA provides a more refined smoothing function, which can help traders follow the true trend in volatile markets.
In this script, the GMA is calculated over a defined Calculation Period (default 14), applying a Gaussian filter to smooth out market fluctuations and provide a clearer view of underlying trends.
Adaptive Volatility: A Dynamic Edge
The Adaptive feature in this indicator gives it the ability to adjust its sensitivity based on current market volatility. If the Adaptive option is enabled, the GMA uses a standard deviation-based volatility measure (with a default period of 20) to dynamically adjust the width of the Gaussian filter, allowing the GMA to react faster in volatile markets and more slowly in calm conditions. This dynamic nature ensures that the GMA stays relevant across different market environments.
When the Adaptive setting is disabled, the script defaults to a constant standard deviation value (default 1.0), providing a more stable but less responsive smoothing function.
Why Use Adaptive Gaussian Moving Average?
The Gaussian Moving Average already provides smoother results than standard moving averages, but by adding an adaptive component, the indicator becomes even more responsive to real-time price changes. In fast-moving or highly volatile markets, this adaptation allows traders to react quicker to emerging trends. Conversely, in quieter markets, it reduces over-sensitivity to minor fluctuations, thus lowering the risk of false signals.
For-Loop Scoring Mechanism
The heart of this indicator lies in its for-loop scoring system, which evaluates the smoothed price data (the GMA) over a specified range, comparing it to previous values. This scoring system assigns a numerical value based on whether the current GMA is higher or lower than previous values, creating a trend score.
Long Signals: These are generated when the for-loop score surpasses the Long Threshold (default set at 40), signaling that the GMA is gaining upward momentum, potentially identifying a favorable buying opportunity.
Short Signals: These are triggered when the score crosses below the Short Threshold (default set at -10), indicating that the market may be losing strength and that a selling or shorting opportunity could be emerging.
Thresholds & Customization Options
This indicator offers a high degree of flexibility, allowing you to fine-tune the settings according to your trading style and risk preferences:
Calculation Period: Adjust the lookback period for the Gaussian filter, affecting how smooth or responsive the indicator is to price changes.
Adaptive Mode: Toggle the adaptive feature on or off, allowing the GMA to dynamically adjust based on market volatility or remain consistent with a fixed standard deviation.
Volatility Settings: Control the standard deviation period for adaptive mode, fine-tuning how quickly the GMA responds to shifts in volatility.
For-Loop Settings: Modify the start and end points for the for-loop score calculation, adjusting the depth of analysis for trend signals.
Thresholds for Signals: Set custom long and short thresholds to determine when buy or sell signals should be generated.
Visualization Options: Choose to color bars based on trend direction, plot signal lines, or adjust the background color to reflect current market sentiment visually.
Trading Applications
The Adaptive Gaussian MA For Loop can be applied to a variety of trading styles and markets. Here are some key ways you can use this indicator in practice:
Trend Following: The combination of Gaussian smoothing and adaptive volatility helps traders stay on top of market trends, identifying significant momentum shifts while filtering out noise. The for-loop scoring system enhances this by providing a numerical representation of trend strength, making it easier to spot when a new trend is emerging or when an existing one is gaining strength.
Mean Reversion: For traders looking to capitalize on short-term market corrections, the adaptive nature of this indicator makes it easier to identify when price action is deviating too far from its smoothed trend, allowing for strategic entries and exits based on overbought or oversold conditions.
Swing Trading: With its ability to capture medium-term price movements while avoiding the noise of short-term fluctuations, this indicator is well-suited for swing traders who aim to profit from market reversals or short-to-mid-term trends.
Volatility Management: The adaptive feature allows the indicator to adjust dynamically in volatile markets, ensuring that it remains responsive in times of increased uncertainty while avoiding unnecessary noise in calmer periods. This makes it an effective tool for traders who want to manage risk by staying in tune with changing market conditions.
Final Thoughts
The Adaptive Gaussian MA For Loop is a powerful and flexible indicator that merges the elegance of Gaussian smoothing with the adaptability of volatility-based adjustments. By incorporating a for-loop scoring mechanism, this indicator provides traders with a comprehensive view of market trends and potential trade opportunities.
It’s important to test the settings on historical data and adapt them to your specific trading style, timeframe, and market conditions. As with any technical tool, the AGMA For Loop should be used in conjunction with other indicators and solid risk management practices for the best results.

Two Pole Butterworth For Loop [BackQuant]Two Pole Butterworth For Loop
PLEASE read the following carefully, as understanding the underlying concepts and logic behind the indicator is key to incorporating it into your trading system in a sound and methodical manner.
Introducing BackQuant's Two Pole Butterworth For Loop (2P BW FL) — an advanced indicator that fuses the power of the Two Pole Butterworth filter with a dynamic for-loop scoring mechanism. This unique approach is designed to extract actionable trading signals by smoothing out price data and then analyzing it using a comparative scoring method. Let's delve into how this indicator works, why it was created, and how it can be used in various trading scenarios.
Understanding the Two Pole Butterworth Filter
The Butterworth filter is a signal processing tool known for its smooth response and minimal distortion. It's often used in electronic and communication systems to filter out unwanted noise. In trading, the Butterworth filter can be applied to price data to smooth out the volatility, providing traders with a clearer view of underlying trends without the whipsaws often associated with market noise.
The Two Pole Butterworth variant further enhances this effect by applying the filter with two poles, effectively creating a sharper transition between the passband and stopband. In simple terms, this allows the filter to follow the price action more closely, reacting to changes while maintaining smoothness.
In this script, the Two Pole Butterworth filter is applied to the Calculation Source (default is set to the closing price), creating a smoothed price series that serves as the foundation for further analysis.
Why Use a Two Pole Butterworth Filter?
The Two Pole Butterworth filter is chosen for its ability to reduce lag while maintaining a smooth output. This makes it an ideal choice for traders who want to capture trends without being misled by short-term volatility or market noise. By filtering the price data, the Two Pole Butterworth enables traders to focus on the broader market movements and avoid false signals.
The For-Loop Scoring Mechanism
In addition to the Butterworth filter, this script uses a for-loop scoring system to evaluate the smoothed price data. The for-loop compares the current value of the filtered price (referred to as "subject") to previous values over a defined range (set by the start and end input). The score is calculated based on whether the subject is higher or lower than the previous points, and the cumulative score is used to determine the strength of the trend.
Long and Short Signal Logic
Long Signals: A long signal is triggered when the score surpasses the Long Threshold (default set at 40). This suggests that the price has built sufficient upward momentum, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
Short Signals: A short signal is triggered when the score crosses under the Short Threshold (default set at -10). This indicates weakening price action or a potential downtrend, signaling a possible selling or shorting opportunity.
By utilizing this scoring system, the indicator identifies moments when the price momentum is shifting, helping traders enter positions at opportune times.
Customization and Visualization Options
One of the strengths of this indicator is its flexibility. Traders can customize various settings to fit their personal trading style or adapt it to different markets and timeframes:
Calculation Periods: Adjust the lookback period for the Butterworth filter, allowing for shorter or longer smoothing depending on the desired sensitivity.
Threshold Levels: Set the long and short thresholds to define when signals should be triggered, giving you control over the balance between sensitivity and specificity.
Signal Line Width and Colors: Customize the visual presentation of the indicator on the chart, including the width of the signal line and the colors used for long and short conditions.
Candlestick and Background Colors: If desired, the indicator can color the candlesticks or the background according to the detected trend, offering additional clarity at a glance.
Trading Applications
This Two Pole Butterworth For Loop indicator is versatile and can be adapted to various market conditions and trading strategies. Here are a few use cases where this indicator shines:
Trend Following: The Butterworth filter smooths the price data, making it easier to follow trends and identify when they are gaining or losing strength. The for-loop scoring system enhances this by providing a clear indication of how strong the current trend is compared to recent history.
Mean Reversion: For traders looking to identify potential reversals, the indicator’s ability to compare the filtered price to previous values over a range of periods allows it to spot moments when the trend may be losing steam, potentially signaling a reversal.
Swing Trading: The combination of smoothing and scoring allows swing traders to capture short to medium-term price movements by filtering out the noise and focusing on significant shifts in momentum.
Risk Management: By providing clear long and short signals, this indicator helps traders manage their risk by offering well-defined entry and exit points. The smooth nature of the Butterworth filter also reduces the risk of getting caught in false signals due to market noise.
Final Thoughts
The Two Pole Butterworth For Loop indicator offers traders a powerful combination of smoothing and scoring to detect meaningful trends and shifts in price momentum. Whether you are a trend follower, swing trader, or someone looking to refine your entry and exit points, this indicator provides the tools to make more informed trading decisions.

This can help visualize the range of market volatility and detect possible trend reversals or continuations.
SMAs on ATR: Two Simple Moving Averages (SMA) are applied to the ATR values. These SMAs act as a smoothed version of the ATR, providing additional insight into volatility trends. By adjusting the length of these SMAs, you can track short-term and long-term volatility movements, helping in decision-making for potential entries and exits.
Inputs:
ATR Length: Set the length for calculating the ATR.
Smoothing Method: Choose from RMA, SMA, EMA, or WMA for smoothing the ATR calculation.
Donchian Channel Length: Set the length for calculating the highest and lowest ATR values for Donchian Channels.
SMA Lengths: Two adjustable lengths for applying SMAs to the ATR.
Visualization:
ATR Plot: The ATR is plotted in red, allowing you to see the market's volatility at a glance.
Donchian Channels: Blue lines represent the upper and lower bands, while the green line represents the middle line of the Donchian Channels, helping you visualize the volatility range.
SMAs: Two SMAs (green and orange) are plotted to smooth out the ATR and identify trends in volatility.
Use Cases:
Breakout Detection: High ATR values breaking out of the Donchian Channels may signal increased volatility and a potential breakout.
Trend Analysis: SMAs on ATR help smooth volatility trends, aiding in determining if the market is entering a more volatile or stable period.
Stop-Loss Placement: ATR and Donchian Channels can be used to set dynamic stop-loss levels based on market volatility.
This script is versatile and can be used across different asset classes, such as stocks, forex, crypto, and commodities. It is especially useful for traders who want to incorporate volatility into their trading strategies for better risk management and trend detection.
RSI 30-50-70 moving averageDescription:
The RSI 30-50-70 Moving Average indicator plots three distinct moving averages based on different RSI ranges (30%, 50%, and 70%). Each moving average corresponds to different market conditions and provides potential entry and exit signals. Here's how it works:
• RSI_30 Range (25%-35%): The moving average of closing prices when the RSI is between 25% and 35%, representing potential oversold conditions.
• RSI_50 Range (45%-55%): The moving average of closing prices when the RSI is between 45% and 55%, providing a balanced perspective for trend-following strategies.
• RSI_70 Range (65%-75%): The moving average of closing prices when the RSI is between 65% and 75%, representing potential overbought conditions.
This indicator offers flexibility, as users can adjust key parameters such as RSI ranges, periods, and time frames to fine-tune the signals for their trading strategies.
How it Works:
Like traditional moving averages, the RSI 30-50-70 Moving Averages can highlight dynamic levels of support and resistance. They offer additional insight by focusing on specific RSI ranges, providing early signals for trend reversals or continuation. The default settings can be used across various assets but should be optimized via backtesting.
Default Settings:
• RSI_30: 25% to 35% (Oversold Zone, yellow line)
• RSI_50: 45% to 55% (Neutral/Trend Zone, green line)
• RSI_70: 65% to 75% (Overbought Zone, red line)
• RSI Period: 14
Buy Conditions:
• Use the 5- or 15-minute time frame.
• Wait for the price to move below the RSI_30 line, indicating potential oversold conditions.
• Enter a buy order when the price closes above the RSI_30 line, signaling a recovery from the oversold zone.
• For a more conservative approach, use the RSI_50 line as the buy signal to confirm a trend reversal.
• Important: Before entering, ensure that the RSI_30 moving average has flattened or started to level off, signaling that the oversold momentum has slowed.
Sell Conditions:
• Use the 5- or 15-minute time frame.
• Wait for the price to close above the RSI_70 line, indicating potential overbought conditions.
• Enter a sell order when the price closes below the RSI_70 line, signaling a decline from the overbought zone.
• Important: Similar to buying, wait for the RSI_70 moving average to flatten or level off before selling, indicating the overbought conditions are stalling.
Key Features:
1. Dynamic Range Customization: The indicator allows users to modify the RSI ranges and periods, tailoring the moving averages to fit different market conditions or asset classes.
2. Trend-Following and Reversal Signals: The RSI 30-50-70 moving averages provide both reversal and trend-following signals, making it a versatile tool for short-term traders.
3. Visual Representation of Market Strength: By plotting moving averages based on RSI levels, traders can visually interpret the market’s strength and potential turning points.
4. Risk Management: The built-in flexibility allows traders to choose lower-risk entries by adjusting which RSI level (e.g., RSI_30 vs. RSI_50) they rely on for signals.
Practical Use:
Different assets respond uniquely to RSI-based moving averages, so it's recommended to backtest and adjust ranges for specific instruments. For example, volatile assets may require wider RSI ranges, while more stable assets could benefit from tighter ranges.
Checking for Buy conditions:
1st: Wait for current price to go below the RSI_30 (yellow line)
2nd: Wait and observe for bullish divergence
3rd: RSI_30 has flattened indicating potential gain of momentum after a bullish divergence.
4th: Enter a buy order when the price closed above the RSI_30, preferably when a green candle appeared.

SMI Ergodic Indicator/Oscillator of Money Flow Index▮ Introduction
The Stochastic Momentum Index Ergodic (SMII) indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to predict trend reversals in the price of an asset.
It functions as a momentum oscillator, measuring the ratio of the smoothed price change to the smoothed absolute price change over a given number of previous periods.
The Ergodic SMI is based on the True Strength Index (TSI) and integrates a signal line, which is an exponential moving average (EMA) of the SMI indicator itself.
The Ergodic SMI oscillator provides a clearer picture of market trends than the traditional stochastic oscillator by incorporating the concept of 'ergodicity', which helps remove market noise.
On ther other hand, MFI (Money Flow Index) is a technical analysis indicator used to measure the inflow of money into an asset and thus help identify buying and selling pressure in a given financial instrument.
When these two indicators are combined, they can provide a more comprehensive view of price direction and market strength.
▮ Motivation: why another indicator?
By combining SMII with MFI, we can gain even more insights into the market.
One way to do this is to use the MFI as an input to the SMII, rather than just using price.
This means we are measuring momentum based on buying and selling pressure rather than just price.
Furthermore, there is the possibility of making several fine adjustments to both the calculation and visualization parameters that are not present in other indicators.
▮ What to look for
When using the SMII MFI indicator, there are a few things to look out for.
First, look at the SMII signal line.
When the line crosses above -40, it is considered a buy signal, while the crossing below +40 is considered a sell signal.
Also, pay attention to divergences between the SMII and the price.
If price is rising but the SMII is showing negative divergence, it could indicate that momentum is waning and a reversal could be in the offing.
Likewise, if price is falling but the SMII is showing positive divergence, this could indicate that momentum is building and a reversal could also be in the offing.
Divergences can be considered in both indicator and/or histogram.
Examples:
▮ Notes
The indicator presented here offers both the 'SMII' and the 'SMIO', that is, the 'Stochastic Momentum Index Ergodic Indicator' together with the 'Stochastic Momentum Index Ergodic Oscillator' (histogram), as per the documentation described in reference links.
So it is important to highlight the differences in relation to my other indicator, the 'Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) of Money Flow Index (MFI)':
This last one is purely based on the SMI , which is implemented using SMA smoothing for the relative range and the high/low range.
Although they may seem the same in some situations, the calculation is actually different. The TSI tends to be more responsive at the expense of being noisier, while the SMI tends to be smoother. Which of these two indicators is best depends on the situation, the context, and the analyst's personal preference.

Commitment of Trader %R StrategyThis Pine Script strategy utilizes the Commitment of Traders (COT) data to inform trading decisions based on the Williams %R indicator. The script operates in TradingView and includes various functionalities that allow users to customize their trading parameters.
Here’s a breakdown of its key components:
COT Data Import:
The script imports the COT library from TradingView to access historical COT data related to different trader groups (commercial hedgers, large traders, and small traders).
User Inputs:
COT data selection mode (e.g., Auto, Root, Base currency).
Whether to include futures, options, or both.
The trader group to analyze.
The lookback period for calculating the Williams %R.
Upper and lower thresholds for triggering trades.
An option to enable or disable a Simple Moving Average (SMA) filter.
Williams %R Calculation: The script calculates the Williams %R value, which is a momentum indicator that measures overbought or oversold levels based on the highest and lowest prices over a specified period.
SMA Filter: An optional SMA filter allows users to limit trades to conditions where the price is above or below the SMA, depending on the configuration.
Trade Logic: The strategy enters long positions when the Williams %R value exceeds the upper threshold and exits when the value falls below it. Conversely, it enters short positions when the Williams %R value is below the lower threshold and exits when the value rises above it.
Visual Elements: The script visually indicates the Williams %R values and thresholds on the chart, with the option to plot the SMA if enabled.
Commitment of Traders (COT) Data
The COT report is a weekly publication by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) that provides a breakdown of open interest positions held by different types of traders in the U.S. futures markets. It is widely used by traders and analysts to gauge market sentiment and potential price movements.
Data Collection: The COT data is collected from futures commission merchants and is published every Friday, reflecting positions as of the previous Tuesday. The report categorizes traders into three main groups:
Commercial Traders: These are typically hedgers (like producers and processors) who use futures to mitigate risk.
Non-Commercial Traders: Often referred to as speculators, these traders do not have a commercial interest in the underlying commodity but seek to profit from price changes.
Non-reportable Positions: Small traders who do not meet the reporting threshold set by the CFTC.
Interpretation:
Market Sentiment: By analyzing the positions of different trader groups, market participants can gauge sentiment. For instance, if commercial traders are heavily short, it may suggest they expect prices to decline.
Extreme Positions: Some traders look for extreme positions among non-commercial traders as potential reversal signals. For example, if speculators are overwhelmingly long, it might indicate an overbought condition.
Statistical Insights: COT data is often used in conjunction with technical analysis to inform trading decisions. Studies have shown that analyzing COT data can provide valuable insights into future price movements (Lund, 2018; Hurst et al., 2017).

RSI Overlay Table with Pivot-Based Divergence and SortingThis script offers an advanced RSI-based overlay table designed to identify and highlight divergences across multiple timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly) for up to 13 tickers. It employs a pivot-based detection mechanism that spots positive and negative divergences, helping traders identify potential trend reversals or continuations.
Key Features
1. Pivot-Based Divergence Detection:
The script uses pivot points to identify both positive and negative divergences using the RSI indicator and price movements.
User-adjustable pivot settings enhance detection sensitivity, providing traders with an opportunity to fine-tune divergence signals for different market conditions.
2. Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Displays RSI values along with divergence signals for daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes.
Enables traders to monitor short-term, swing, and long-term trends on a single table, providing a comprehensive view.
3. Customizable Alerts and Visual Cues:
The script generates alerts whenever a divergence is detected, ensuring timely notifications.
Overbought and oversold levels are color-coded based on user-defined thresholds, with the "P-" and "N-" prefixes indicating positive and negative divergences, respectively.
4. User-Friendly Interface:
An intuitive table design allows for easy comparison of RSI levels and divergence signals across multiple tickers.

Volume-Weighted Trend Strength indexVolume-Weighted Trend Strength index (VWTSI)
Introduction
The VWTSI is a custom indicator designed to combine trend strength, volume, and volatility to give traders a comprehensive view of market dynamics. It provides flexibility by allowing you to visualize the indicator as either an oscillator or a moving average.
Features
Dual Visualization: Can be displayed either as an oscillator or as a moving average on the chart.
Volume-Weighted: Adjusts trend strength based on current volume compared to its average.
Volatility-Adjusted: Incorporates market volatility into the trend strength calculation.
Customizable: Various parameters can be fine-tuned to suit different trading environments.
How It Works
1. Trend Strength Calculation
The difference between the fast (10-period) and slow (30-period) EMAs is used to calculate trend strength, which gives a percentage-based indication of the trend's strength
2. Volatility Adjustment
The ATR-based volatility is calculated and used to amplify or reduce the trend strength based on the current market conditions
3. Volume Adjustment
The ratio of current volume to the volume SMA adds another layer of adjustment to the final VWTSI value
4. Final VWTSI Calculation
The VWTSI value is the product of trend strength, volatility factor, and volume ratio
5. Normalization
The final VWTSI is normalized to fit within a range of -100 to 100 for better visualization in oscillator mode
Customization Inputs
Fast EMA Length: Default is 10.
Slow EMA Length: Default is 30.
Volume Length: Default is 14.
Volatility Length (ATR): Default is 20.
Oscillator or MA Mode: Toggle between displaying the indicator as an oscillator or moving average.
Dynamic Sentiment RSI [UAlgo]The Dynamic Sentiment RSI is a technical analysis tool that combines the classic RSI (Relative Strength Index) concept with dynamic sentiment analysis, offering traders enhanced insights into market conditions. Unlike the traditional RSI, this indicator integrates volume weighting, sentiment factors, and smoothing features to provide a more nuanced view of momentum and potential market reversals. It is designed to assist traders in detecting overbought/oversold conditions, momentum shifts, and to generate potential buy or sell signals using crossover and crossunder techniques. By dynamically adjusting based on sentiment and volume factors, this RSI offers better adaptability to varying market conditions, making it suitable for different trading styles and timeframes.
This tool is particularly helpful for traders who wish to explore not only price movement but also the underlying market sentiment, offering a more comprehensive approach to momentum analysis. The sentiment factor amplifies the RSI's sensitivity to price shifts, making it easier to detect early signals of market reversals or the continuation of a trend.
🔶 Key Features
Dynamic Sentiment Calculation: The indicator incorporates a "Sentiment Factor" that adjusts the RSI length dynamically based on a multiplier, helping traders better understand market sentiment at different time intervals.
Volume Weighting: When enabled, the RSI calculations are weighted by volume, allowing traders to give more importance to price movements with higher trading volume, which may provide more accurate signals.
Smoothing Feature: A customizable smoothing period is applied to the RSI to help filter out noise and make the signal smoother. This feature is particularly useful for traders who prefer to focus on long-term trends while minimizing false signals.
Step Size Customization: A "Step Size" input allows users to round the sentiment RSI to predefined intervals, making the results easier to interpret and act upon. This feature allows you to focus on significant sentiment changes and ignore minor fluctuations.
Crossover/Crossunder Alerts: The indicator includes crossover and crossunder signals on the zero-line, helping traders identify potential buy and sell opportunities as the smoothed RSI crosses these levels.
The indicator offers a clear visual display with multiple color-coded lines and areas:
Sentiment RSI: Plotted as an area chart, color-coded based on sentiment strength.
Raw RSI: A purple line representing the raw adjusted RSI.
Smoothed RSI: A dynamic line, color-coded aqua or orange based on its position relative to the zero line.
Buy/Sell Signals: Triangle shapes are plotted at crossovers and crossunders, providing clear entry and exit points.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Sentiment RSI
-This line represents the sentiment-adjusted RSI, where the higher the value, the stronger the bullish sentiment, and the lower the value, the stronger the bearish sentiment. It is rounded to step intervals, making it easier to detect significant shifts in sentiment.
- A positive sentiment RSI (above 0) suggests bullish market conditions, while a negative sentiment RSI (below 0) suggests bearish conditions.
Smoothed RSI
The smoothed RSI helps reduce noise and shows the trend more clearly.
Crossovers of the zero line are significant:
- Crossover above zero: Indicates that bullish momentum is building, potentially signaling a buying opportunity.
- Crossunder below zero: Signals a shift towards bearish momentum, potentially indicating a sell signal.
Traders should look for these crossovers in conjunction with other signals for more accurate entry/exit points.
Raw RSI (Adjusted)
The raw adjusted RSI offers a less smoothed, more responsive version of the RSI. While it may be noisier, it provides early signals of market reversals and trends.
Crossover/Crossunder Signals
- When the smoothed RSI crosses above the zero line, a "Signal Up" triangle appears, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
- When the smoothed RSI crosses below the zero line, a "Signal Down" triangle appears, signaling a potential sell opportunity.
These signals help traders time their entries and exits by identifying momentum shifts.
Volume Weighting (Optional)
- If volume weighting is enabled, the RSI will give more weight to periods of higher trading volume, making the signals more reliable when the market is highly active.
Strong Up/Down Levels (40/-40)
- These dotted lines represent extreme sentiment levels. When the sentiment RSI reaches 40 or -40, the market may be nearing an overbought or oversold condition, respectively. This could be a signal for traders to prepare for potential reversals or shifts in momentum.
By combining the various components of this indicator, traders can gain a comprehensive view of market sentiment and price action, helping them make more informed trading decisions. The combination of sentiment factors, volume weighting, and smoothing makes this indicator highly flexible and suitable for a variety of trading strategies.

RSI with Swing Trade by Kelvin_VAlgorithm Description: "RSI with Swing Trade by Kelvin_V"
1. Introduction:
This algorithm uses the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and optional Moving Averages (MA) to detect potential uptrends and downtrends in the market. The key feature of this script is that it visually changes the candle colors based on the market conditions, making it easier for users to identify potential trend swings or wave patterns.
The strategy offers flexibility by allowing users to enable or disable the MA condition. When the MA condition is enabled, the strategy will confirm trends using two moving averages. When disabled, the strategy will only use RSI to detect potential market swings.
2. Key Features of the Algorithm:
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI is used to identify potential market turning points based on overbought and oversold conditions.
When the RSI exceeds a predefined upper threshold (e.g., 60), it suggests a potential uptrend.
When the RSI drops below a lower threshold (e.g., 40), it suggests a potential downtrend.
Moving Averages (MA) - Optional:
Two Moving Averages (Short MA and Long MA) are used to confirm trends.
If the Short MA crosses above the Long MA, it indicates an uptrend.
If the Short MA crosses below the Long MA, it indicates a downtrend.
Users have the option to enable or disable this MA condition.
Visual Candle Coloring:
Green candles represent a potential uptrend, indicating a bullish move based on RSI (and MA if enabled).
Red candles represent a potential downtrend, indicating a bearish move based on RSI (and MA if enabled).
3. How the Algorithm Works:
RSI Levels:
The user can set RSI upper and lower bands to represent potential overbought and oversold levels. For example:
RSI > 60: Indicates a potential uptrend (bullish move).
RSI < 40: Indicates a potential downtrend (bearish move).
Optional MA Condition:
The algorithm also allows the user to apply the MA condition to further confirm the trend:
Short MA > Long MA: Confirms an uptrend, reinforcing a bullish signal.
Short MA < Long MA: Confirms a downtrend, reinforcing a bearish signal.
This condition can be disabled, allowing the user to focus solely on RSI signals if desired.
Swing Trade Logic:
Uptrend: If the RSI exceeds the upper threshold (e.g., 60) and (optionally) the Short MA is above the Long MA, the candles will turn green to signal a potential uptrend.
Downtrend: If the RSI falls below the lower threshold (e.g., 40) and (optionally) the Short MA is below the Long MA, the candles will turn red to signal a potential downtrend.

The candle colors change dynamically based on the RSI values and moving average conditions, making it easier for traders to visually identify potential trend swings or wave patterns without relying on complex chart analysis.
4. User Customization:
The algorithm provides multiple customization options:
RSI Length: Users can adjust the period for RSI calculation (default is 4).
RSI Upper Band (Potential Uptrend): Users can customize the upper RSI level (default is 60) to indicate a potential bullish move.
RSI Lower Band (Potential Downtrend): Users can customize the lower RSI level (default is 40) to indicate a potential bearish move.
MA Type: Users can choose between SMA (Simple Moving Average) and EMA (Exponential Moving Average) for moving average calculations.
Enable/Disable MA Condition: Users can toggle the MA condition on or off, depending on whether they want to add moving averages to the trend confirmation process.
5. Benefits of the Algorithm:
Easy Identification of Trends: By changing candle colors based on RSI and MA conditions, the algorithm makes it easy for users to visually detect potential trend reversals and trend swings.
Flexible Conditions: The user has full control over the RSI and MA settings, allowing them to adapt the strategy to different market conditions and timeframes.
Clear Visualization: With the candle color changes, users can quickly recognize when a potential uptrend or downtrend is forming, enabling faster decision-making in their trading.
6. Example Usage:
Day traders: Can apply this strategy on short timeframes such as 5 minutes or 15 minutes to detect quick trends or reversals.
Swing traders: Can use this strategy on longer timeframes like 1 hour or 4 hours to identify and follow larger market swings.
Distance From moving averageDistance From Moving Average is designed to help traders visualize the deviation of the current price from a specified moving average. Users can select from four different types of moving averages: Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), and Hull Moving Average (HMA).
Key Features:
User-Friendly Input Options:
Choose the type of moving average from a dropdown menu.
Set the length of the moving average, with a default value of 200.
Custom Moving Average Calculations:
The script computes the selected moving average using the appropriate mathematical formula, allowing for versatile analysis based on individual trading strategies.
Distance Calculation:
The indicator calculates the distance between the current price and the chosen moving average, providing insight into market momentum. A positive value indicates that the price is above the moving average, while a negative value shows it is below.
Visual Representation:
The distance is plotted on the chart, with color coding:
Lime: Indicates that the price is above the moving average (bullish sentiment).
Red: Indicates that the price is below the moving average (bearish sentiment).
Customization:
Users can further customize the appearance of the plotted line, enhancing clarity and visibility on the chart.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to gauge market conditions and make informed decisions based on the relationship between current prices and key moving averages.
