Sessions [TradingFinder] New York, London, Tokyo & Sydney ForexTiming is one of the influential factors in a trader's position. This indicator categorizes transactions into three sessions (Asia, Europe, and America). Five significant trading cities (New York, London, Frankfurt, Tokyo, and Sydney) are selectable.
I recommend using the tool on a 5-minute time frame, but it is usable on all time frames.
Settings:
• Trading sessions: Display or hide each trading session as needed.
• Color: Change the color of each box.
• Session time intervals: The default is based on the main working hours for each time interval and can be adjusted.
• Information table: Delete or display additional information table.
Information Table:
• Trading sessions
• Opening and closing times of each trading session
How to Use:
Initiating trading sessions involves entering with increased liquidity, and the market usually experiences significant movements. Many trading strategies are based on "time" and "session openings." This tool empowers traders to focus intensely on each time interval.
These trading sessions are crucial for all Forex, stock, and index traders:
The total price ceiling and floor in the Asia session (Tokyo and Sydney) are crucial for traders in the European session.
The European session starts with Frankfurt, and an hour later, London begins, collectively forming the European session.
The dashboard provides additional information, displaying hours based on UTC.
Customization options are considered in all sections so that everyone can apply their own settings.
Important: Default times are the most accurate for each region, and in most indicators, this time is not correctly selected. Therefore, the level of influence and time intervals are specified at the beginning of each session. If you are using another indicator, match its default time to the announced time and share the results with me in the comments.
Cycles
Crypto USD LiquidityThe "Crypto USD Liquidity " indicator is designed to offer a comprehensive analysis of liquidity dynamics within the cryptocurrency market, specifically focusing on various stablecoins. This versatile tool allows users to tailor their analysis by adjusting key parameters such as the Rate of Change (ROC) length and the smoothing rate.
The indicator incorporates a user-friendly interface with options to selectively display the supply data for major stablecoins, including USDT, BUSD, USDC, DAI, and TUSD . Users can toggle these options to observe and compare the liquidity trends of different stablecoin assets.
The total liquidity is computed as the summation of the selected stablecoin supplies, providing a holistic view of the overall crypto market liquidity. The Rate of Change (ROC) and its smoothing are then applied to the aggregated liquidity data. This process helps users identify trends and potential turning points in the liquidity landscape.
The visual representation on the chart includes a color-coded display: positive changing ROC values are shaded in green, indicating potential increases in liquidity, while negative values are shaded in red, suggesting potential decreases. This color scheme enhances the user's ability to quickly interpret the changing dynamics of stablecoin liquidity.
Moreover, the script includes a Zero Line for reference and overlays the raw ROC values for additional insight. The resulting chart not only serves as a powerful analytical tool for traders and investors but also contributes to a deeper understanding of the nuanced movements within the broader cryptocurrency market.
In summary, the "Crypto USD Liquidity" Pine Script indicator empowers users with a customizable and visually informative tool for analyzing and interpreting the complex dynamics of stablecoin liquidity, facilitating more informed decision-making in the realm of cryptocurrency trading and investment.
Monthly Data Analysis [ProjeAdam]OVERVIEW
This indicator was developed to quickly analyze the seasonal movements of financial investment instruments.
I would like to thank Zafer Brother for his ideas.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
In order to calculate monthly price changes properly, we need to examine the chart on a monthly time period.
USER GUIDE:
1 - Time Period Selection: Users can input the start and end years for their analysis. This feature enables users to focus on specific time frames that are of interest to them, such as analyzing market behavior during certain historical events or periods.
2 - Monthly Data Aggregation: The script seems to collect and process data on a monthly basis, enabling a detailed analysis of market trends within each month.
3 - Percentage Change Calculation: It calculates the percentage change in prices, which is a crucial metric in financial analysis for understanding market movements.
4 - Customization and Visualization: Users can customize background colors for each month, enhancing the visual appeal and readability of the data on charts.
ALGORITHM
1 - Time Range Settings:
The user can enter the start and end year of the analysis. These dates determine the time period in which data analysis will be performed.
2- Creating Monthly Data Series and Calculating Total Months:
A separate float array and percentage change array is created for each month.
3- Percentage Change Calculation:
Using the data in the series created for each year and each month, the months of the selected years are summed and divided by the total number of years.
4 - Visualization of Results:
Table helps us to quickly check our data in our monthly average percentage change for selected years.
5- Coloring the Graph According to Background Conditions:
The user who checks the results in the table can check the price changes in the months between the selected years from the graph by turning on the background of the desired month in the indicator settings.
In the example above, I selected the months of June, July and August.
By changing the background of the months of June, July and August between the years I have selected in the chart, I can easily examine the seasonal price movement in these months.
Example
I observe that the snowiest month among the years I choose in the airline company I work with is November, and I can easily make my analysis by turning on the background setting of November.
Benefits
Customized Analysis: By allowing users to select specific start and end years, the script provides tailored analysis, making it more relevant and useful for individual trading strategies or historical research.
Trend Identification: Monthly data aggregation and percentage change calculations can help in identifying short-term and long-term market trends, vital for making informed trading decisions.
Enhanced Visualization: Custom background colors for different months can make the chart more user-friendly, aiding in quicker interpretation and analysis of data.
User-Friendly Dashboard: The script includes a dashboard feature that provides a summary of data analysis, making it easier for users to get an overview of market trends.
If you have any ideas what to add to my work to add more sources or make calculations cooler, suggest in DM .
BTB - Bitcoin (BTC) Top and Bottom Indicator [Logue]This indicator is a combination of multiple on-chain, seasonality, and momentum BTC macro cycle bottom and top indicators. The BTB detects confluence of multiple indicators to select bottoms and tops of each BTC macro cycle. More detail can be seen on the BTI and BBI indicators. The BTB indicators are:
1) Cumulative Value Days Destroyed (CVDD) - The CVDD is the ratio of the cumulative value of coin days destroyed in USD and the market age (in days). When the BTC price goes below this value, BTC is generally considered to be undervalued. The bottom indicator is triggered when the BTC price is below the CVDD or above the CVDD extension. Because the "strength" of the BTC tops has decreased over the cycles, a logarithmic function for the extension was created by fitting past cycles as log extension = slope * time + intercept.
2) Net Unrealized Profit Loss (NUPL) - The NUPL measures if past transfers of BTC are currently in an unrealized profit or loss state. Historically positive or negative NUPL values indicate an over/undervaluation of the BTC network. The bottom indicator is triggered when the NUPL is below -15 and the top is triggered above an adjusted value based on decreasing "strength" of BTC tops. A decreasing linear function (trigger = slope * time + intercept) was fit to past cycle tops and used to determine overvaluation.
3) Market Value-Realized Value Z-score (MVRV-Z) - The MVRV-Z measures the value of the bitcoin network by comparing the market cap to the realized value and dividing by the standard deviation of the market cap (market cap – realized cap) / std(market cap)). The bottom indicator is triggered when the MVRVZ value is below 4 and tops are above 55.
4) Puell multiple (PUELL) - PUELL is the ratio between the daily coin issuance in USD and its 365-day moving average. This multiple helps to measure miner profitability. Extremes in PUELL may indicate tops or bottoms. The bottom indicator triggers when the PUELL is below 0.4 and top is triggered above 3.33.
5) Calendar Seasonality Index (CSI) - The CSI takes advantage of the consistency of BTC cycles. Past cycles have formed macro bottoms every four years between December and February which triggers the bottom indicator. Past cycles have formed macro tops every four years between October 21st and December 12th, triggering the top indicator.
6) Halving Seasonality Index (HSI) - Past cycles have formed macro bottoms approximately 948 days after each halving, triggering this indicator at set times, 948 +- 45 days, after each halving. Aside from the first halving, cycles have formed macro tops approximately 538 days after each halving. Therefore, this indicator triggers at 538 +- 10 days after each halving.
7) Polylog Regression (PLR) - The BTC cycle tops and bottoms were separately fit using a polynomial regression. The shape of the regression into the future was estimated and a fit was used to estimate when tops and bottoms are near. This triggers when the BTC price is inside or below the lower polylog regression channel and when the BTC price is inside or above the upper polylog regression channel.
8) Realized Price (RP) - The RP is summation of the value of each BTC when it last moved divided by the total number of BTC in circulation. This gives an estimation of the average "purchase" price of BTC. This indicator triggers when the BTC price is below the realized price or above an RP extension. Because the "strength" of the BTC tops has decreased over the cycles, a logarithmic function for the extension was created by fitting past cycles as log extension = slope * time + intercept.
9) Plus Directional Movement (PDM) weekly index - The PDM is a momentum indicator that measures the strength of a trend in the positive direction. The weekly PDM is calculated by determining the difference between the week's high price and the previous week's high price smoothed by a 14-period moving average. Higher PDM values indicate higher momentum in the positive (higher price) direction. Based on decreasing "strength" of BTC tops, a decreasing linear function (trigger = slope * time + intercept) was fit to past cycle tops for this indicator. This indicator is triggered when the PDM is above the trigger value or below 14.
10) Logarithmic Moving Average Convergence Divergence (LMACD) weekly indicator - The LMACD is a momentum indicator that measures the strength of a trend using the difference of the log values of the 12-period and 26-week exponential moving averages. Larger positive numbers indicate a larger positive momentum. Based on decreasing "strength" of BTC tops, a decreasing linear function (trigger = slope * time + intercept) was fit to past cycle tops for this indicator. This indicator is triggered when the PDM is above the trigger value or below -0.06.
11) Hash Rate Capitulation (HRC) - The HRC indicator measures the rate of change of the hash rate. Steadily increasing hash rate is a sign of health of the bitcoin network. This indicator uses moving averages (20- and 100-day) of the hash rate to indicate when a decrease in the rate of change is has occurred (i.e., the 20-day MA goes below the 100-day MA). This indicator triggers when the 20-day moving average of the hash rate going below the 100-day moving average.
12) Pi-cycle Top (PCT) - The PCT indicator is simply the cross of the 111-day moving average above a 2x multiple of the 350-day moving average of the BTC price. While there is no fundamental reasoning behind why this works, it has worked to indicate previous bitcoin tops by taking advantage of the cyclicality of the BTC price and measurement overextension of BTC price. This indicator triggers when the fast moving average (111-day) crosses above the 2x multiple of the slow moving average (350-day).
13) Transaction Fee Spike (TFS) - Transaction fees on the bitcoin network can signal a mania phase when they increase well above historical values. This mania phase may indicate we are near a top in the BTC price. The daily transaction fee total in USD is divided by the number of daily transactions to calculate the average transaction fee paid on the bitcoin network. The transaction fees increasing above $40 trigger this indicator.
The on-chain indicators (CVDD, NUPL, MVRV-Z, PUELL, RP, and HRC) work together to give a health check of the BTC price as compared to its network health. The seasonality indicators (CSI, HSI, and PLR) work together to map the macro cycles of BTC. The momentum indicators (PDM and LMACD) give the strength of the BTC trend. Each of these indicators is weighted evenly when selected and if over 45% of the indicators are triggering on a candle, the overall BTB indicator prints a clear signal. This signal is meant to indicate when the macro cycle bottom or top is likely hit or is near.
You are able to deselect any indicator you do not wish to have considered and select it back again. To prepare you for indicators triggering, the BTB shows dark blue or dark green when the indicator is close to triggering. The background color of the BBI becomes blue when at least 30% of the indicators considered are triggering and it becomes green when the BBI fully triggers. The BLX is most appropriate chart, but the indicator works on all BTC/USD charts. Because of the limitations of TradingView, the indicator doesn't work on time frames lower than 4 h or over one week.
Use this indicator at your own risk. I make no assertions that this indicator will work to detect any future bottom or top since we all know that past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Cycles 90mThe cycles are separated by vertical lines. The first cycle (Q1) is marked with a red line because it is a manipulative cycle where you should not open positions. Other cycles are green (Q2, Q3, Q4).
You can add the time of the current candle, its size and position on the chart in the settings
The time is highlighted in red in the timeframes 9:30-9:40, 10:00-10:10, 11:00-11:30, 15:30-15:40, 16:00-16:10, 17:00-17:10, 17:30-17:40, as price movements are most often expected during these timeframes.
The cycle lines automatically disappear if you open a timeframe above M15
Moving Average [chkd]日本語の説明は英語の説明の後にあります。
========= English =========
Various analyses of moving averages have been introduced, but the key points to observe are often quite similar. To efficiently observe the following points, I have created this indicator:
The positional relationship between each moving average and candlestick
The slope (directionality) of the moving averages
Moving averages from different time frames
The positional relationship of moving averages is classified into stages:
Stage 1: Short-term MA > Medium-term MA > Long-term MA (Perfect Order)
Stage 2: Medium-term MA > Short-term MA > Long-term MA
Stage 3: Medium-term MA > Long-term MA > Short-term MA
Stage 4: Long-term MA > Medium-term MA > Short-term MA (Reverse Perfect Order)
Stage 5: Long-term MA > Short-term MA > Medium-term MA
Stage 6: Short-term MA > Long-term MA > Medium-term MA
The features of this indicator include:
Displaying multi-timeframe stages in a table
Showing the transition history of stages with dashed lines at the bottom
Selectable table size (compatible with PC and smartphones)

Cast ForwardThis indicator will not forecast price action. It will not predict price movement nor will it in any way predict the outcome of any trade you may take. This is not a signal for buying or selling. You must do your own back testing and analysis for trading.
Time and price are the two most important components of market data. Where was price at what time? To help visualize this question I created this indicator. It allows for the previous session data to be overlayed onto the chart offset forward 24 hours. What this means is that you have the high, (high/low)/2, and low of each candle plotted on top of your chart for the time frame of the current chart, but offset so that the data from the current candle has the data from the corresponding candle 24 hours prior lined up on the x-axis.
SMA Logic: I used the SMA (Simple Moving Average) function with a length of 1 to plot the data points without any smoothing to give the true values of the data.
For Intraday Charting
For Electronic Trading Hours:
In order to line up the data correctly, for intraday charts, I used the current chart timeframe and divided it into 1380 (number of minutes in the 23 hour futures market trading day) to set the data offset. Using the same math logic, this indicator also gives the correct correlated data on the 30 second time frame. If the chart time frame that is currently being used does not allow for correct data correlation (not a factor of 1380) it will not plot the data.
For Regular Trading Hours:
In order to line up the data correctly, for intraday charts, I used the current chart timeframe and divided it into 405 (number of minutes in the 6 hour 45 minutes New York regular session trading day, including the 15 minute settlement time) to set the data offset. This indicator also gives the correct correlated data on the 30 second time frame. If the chart time frame that is currently being used does not allow for correct data correlation (not a factor of 405) it will not plot the data.
For the Daily Chart:
This indicator plots a visualization of the 20-40-60 day IPDA data range; (The IPDA data range helps traders identify liquidity, price gaps, and equilibrium points in the market, providing insights for optimal trade entries and market structure shifts). It does this using the same SMA logic as the intraday plot. What this means is it offsets the historical data of the daily chart 20, 40, or 60 bars forward. You can plot any combination of the three on the chart at one time, but these will not show on the intraday chart. This allows for visualization of where the market will possibly seek liquidity, seek to rebalance, or seek equilibrium in the future.
itradesize /\ IPDA Look Back - for any timeframeThe script automatically calculates the 20-40-60 look-back periods and their premium and discount ranges.
The base concept is from ICT’s IPDA which should be applied to the daily timeframe but now you can use that same concept on the lower timeframes .
The higher the timeframes you use the more reliable it will be ( when we are talking about lower timeframes than Daily ).
- With the use of the indicator you can apply it on any timeframe with ease.
- You can customize the coloring of premium & discount, frame lines, and even the look of it.
- Hide or show the EQ levels
Below the IPDA texts the indicator shows the actual percentage of the selected range based on the current price fluctuations.
The script handles the 20-40-60 days look-back as fractals so it can be applied on lower timeframes.
The basics:
- The Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm (IPDA): The algorithm creates a shift on the daily chart every 20, 40, and 60 trading days.
- These are the IPDA look-back periods. Every 20 trading days or so there is a new liquidity pool forming on both sides of the market based on ICT concepts.
- Determine the IPDA Data Range of the land 20 trading days.
- Note the highest high & lowest low in the past 20 trading days. Identify the institutional order flow and mark the relevant PD arrays in the selected IPDA look-back period we deemed useful for our trading style.
- This is your current dealing range.
- If the price consolidates for 20 days, consider switching to a 40-day look back.
Inside this dealing range, we look for the next draw on liquidity. Is it reaching for a liquidity pool or is it looking to rebalance at a particular PD Array. This is going to the Bias.
Which IPDA data range should you use?
IPDA20 can be our Short Term range - fit for intraday traders at most
IPDA40 can be our Swing Trade range - have a clear indication of the market profile
IPDA60 can be our range for position trading - have a clear indication of the market profile
Macro Matrix [Pro+] (DRxICT)Description:
Visualize the intricacies of the financial markets with Macro Matrix, a tool meticulously crafted with insights drawn from the teachings of Inner Circle Trader (ICT), and enhanced by ICT_Concepts.
A Macro is a short list of orders that the Interbank Price Delivery Algorithm (IPDA) will run to determine which liquidity to seek or which inefficiencies to rebalance. ICT traders are taught to focus on these Time windows to frame the clearest narrative and observe defining market behaviour. Traders can use the Macro Matrix to stay alerted about key market timings and price swings that arise during these times.
The Macro Matrix Pro+ brings the power of Macros to new heights thanks to ICT_Concepts’s studies of the market, by taking the price range defined by a Macro Time Window (i.e. 9:50-10:10 AM New York Time), and projecting it above and below the original range creating extensions, similar to DR models. Analysts can use these extensions to measure future price swings as targets, retracement levels, or key reversals.
In addition, analysts have the flexibility to choose different extensions over time. Extend projections until the next Macro, for the next 3 Macros, or even for a whole day. By considering and cross-referencing previous Macros, analysts can gain insights into their potential impact on the market and identify key market pivots.
When news events occur in specific macros on specific days of the week, these time based ranges can offer unique insights. This is particularly true when we consider the different impacts that various days of the week can have on market trends. By analyzing news events that fall within macro time ranges, analysts can gain a deeper understanding of the ranges that influence future market movements.

Live Economic Calendar by toodegrees⚠️ PLEASE READ ⚠️
Although this indicator is accurate in showcasing live and upcoming News Events, checking the original sources is always suggested. This indicator aims to save Time, but due to limitations it may not be 100% correct 100% of the Time.
Description:
The Live Economic Calendar indicator seamlessly integrates with external news sources to provide real-Time, upcoming, and past financial news directly on your Tradingview chart.
By having a clear understanding of when news are planned to be released, as well as their respective impact, analysts can prepare their weeks and days in advance. These injections of volatility can be harnessed by analysts to support their thesis, or may want to be avoided to ensure higher probability market conditions. Fundamentals and news releases transcend the boundaries of technical analysis, as their effects are difficult to predict or estimate.
Designed for both novice and experienced traders, the Live Economic Calendar indicator enhances your analysis by keeping you informed of the latest and upcoming market-moving news.
This is achieved with three different visual components:
News Table: A dedicated News Table shows the Day of the Week, Date, Time of the Day, Currency, Expected Impact, and News Name for each event (in chronological order). Once a news event has occurred, or the day is over, it will be greyed out – helping to focus on the next upcoming news events.
News Lines: Vertical lines plotted in the future help analysts monitor upcoming news events; vertical lines in the past help analysts spot and backtest previous news events that already occurred.
News Labels: Color-coded news labels will plot once the news events have occurred. This not only gives analysts a minimalistic visual cue, but also retains the information of which news were released at that Time in their tooltips.
Forex Factory Calendar News Feed:
The Forex Factory Data Feed includes news events from January 2007 to the present. The data is updated daily. Please see the Technical Description below for more information.
Forex Factory provides news for all major currencies and markets:
Australia (AUD)
Canada (CAD)
Switzerland (CHF)
China (CNY)
European Union (EUR)
United Kingdom (GBP)
Japan (JPY)
New Zealand (NZD)
United States of America (USD)
Further, there are four types of news impact, defined by respective color-coding which is retained to avoid confusion:
⚪ Holiday
🟡 Low Impact
🟠 Medium Impact
🔴 High Impact
News' Time of the day data is in 24H format, and 'All Day' news are marked at Daily candle open.
⚠️ Original Release Notes ⚠️
The original release of this indicator supports the Forex Factory News Calendar in EST (New York Time). Future updates will include multiple news sources, as well as supporting different Timezones.
Given Data limitations, the Daily chart can omit some data due to the market being close on some days. This will be fixed in the future once an efficient solution is implemented.
Key Features:
Impact-Based News Filtering: Filter news items based on their expected impact (holiday, low, medium, high) to focus on the most market-critical information.
Symbol-Specific News: Automatically filter news to display only what's relevant to the currency pair or trading symbol you are analyzing.
Custom Currency News: Want to see more than the news relevant to the current symbol? Toggle which markets' news you are most interested in.
Chart History: Keep your charts clean by displaying only the drawings of Today's news, or This Week's news.
Custom Lookback: Look further back in Time by choosing a custom number of Lookback Days, allowing you to backtest and keep in mind salient news events from the past.
Line and Label Customization: Both the News Lines and Labels are highly customizable (except the colors), allowing you to make the indicator yours.
Table History: Choose whether to focus on Today's news only, or the news for This Week.
Table Customization: The table colors and position are highly customizable, allowing you to make it fit your visual preference and your layouts' aesthetic.
"Wondering how it's done? 👇"
Technical Description:
This script utilizes Pine Seeds , a service integrated with TradingView for importing custom data. This stunning feature enables users to upload and access custom End Of Day (EOD) data, which can be updated as frequently as five times daily.
This data can be imported in one of two formats:
Single Value: integer or float
Candle Data: open, high, low, close, volume
Upon encountering Pine Seeds, I recognized its potential for importing financial news events. Given that Forex Factory is a primary source of financial news in my personal analysis, integrating it into my layouts seemed like an exciting opportunity. This integration is expected to provide significant value to users looking to integrate additional news feeds all in one place.
Development Challenges:
Format Limitations: News events must be converted into numerical values for import, due to the required Pine Seeds format.
Amount of Data: With all currencies considered, the system may encounter over 40 news events in a single day.
Data Availability: The reliance on End Of Day (EOD) data means that information for the current day is displayed with a delay, and accessing future data is not possible.
Solutions:
Encoding: Each news event is encoded as an integer in the "DCHHMMITYP" format.
D = day of the week
C = currency
HHMM = Time of day
I = news impact
TYP = event ID (see Event Library A and Event Library B )
To ensure data assignment for each candle across the open, high, low, close, and volume series, the value "999" is used as a placeholder:
Importing: Utilizing the encoding system, up to five news events per day can be imported for a singular Pine Seeds custom symbol.
By creating multiple custom Pine Seeds Symbols, efficient imports of a larger number of events is then easily achievable. Nine unique symbols have been established, accommodating up to 45 news events per day.
These symbols are searchable, and accessible as " TOODEGREES_FOREX_FACTORY_SLOT_N " where N ranges from 1 to 9.
The Pine Seeds data feed appears as follows:
Uploading Schedule: To ensure analysts are informed about current and upcoming week's news, events are uploaded one week in advance.
This approach is vital for preparing for potential market impacts across various asset classes and currencies, allowing visibility of an entire week's news ahead of Time.
Data Scraping:
Unfortunately Forex Factory doesn't offer an API to fetch their news feed.
Hence an ad hoc python scraper was developed to read and save news events from January 2007 till the present leveraging Selenium. The scraper algorithm is part of a larger script responsible for scraping data, formatting data, and creating all necessary datasets.
The pseudo-code for the python script is as follows:
Read and save news event data on Forex Factory
Format day of the week, currency, Time of the day, and impact data for the Encoding
Encode and save News Event IDs – Event ID dataset is created
Format news data for Pine Seeds (roll-back date by one week, assign news to open, high, low, close, and volume values)
Create Pine Seeds Datasets
This script is ran everyday at Futures market close (16:00 EST) to update the last part of the each dataset, ensuring accuracy, and taking into account last-minute news additions or revisions.
Once the data (next week's news) is imported by the Live Economic Calendar indicator, it's immediately decoded by leveraging the Forex Factory Decoding Library , and saved into an array.
Upon a new week open, the decoded data is used to plot news events on the chart and in the news table.
See the inner workings of these processes in the Forex Factory Utility Library .
Although these libraries are specifically built for this indicator, feel free to use them to create your own scripts. Looking forward to see what the Pine Script community comes up with!
Thank you for making it this far. Enjoy!

MVRV Z-ScoreThe MVRV ratio was created by Murad Mahmudov & David Puell. It simply compares Market Cap to Realised Cap, presenting a ratio (MVRV = Market Cap / Realised Cap). The MVRV Z-Score is a later version, refining the metric by normalising the peaks and troughs of the data.
X% Drop in X Days, sold X Days afterIt identifies potential buy signals based on a specified percentage drop in price over a set number of days and calculates the total profit or loss (P/L) over a predefined period. Here's a breakdown of the script and its key parameters:
Script Description:
Indicator Name: "X% Drop in X Days, sold X Days after"
Functionality:
The script signals a buy opportunity when the price of an asset drops by a certain percentage (percentage_drop) within a specified length (length) in days.
It calculates the profit or loss percentage after a set number of days (hold_days) from the buy signal.
The script also displays the cumulative total profit or loss over a specified time frame, from a start date (start_period) to an end date (end_period), which is by default set to the current date.
Display:
Buy signals are marked on the chart.
The profit or loss for each trade after the hold period is displayed.
A label showing the total cumulative profit or loss, along with the start and end dates, is displayed on the chart.
Key Parameters:
percentage_drop (10.0% by default) : The percentage decrease in price that triggers a buy signal. It represents the threshold for the price drop to consider a buying opportunity.
length (3 days by default): The period over which the drop in price is considered. It's the timeframe used to evaluate the percentage drop.
hold_days (30 days by default) : The duration for holding the asset after the buy signal before selling. This parameter defines the time after which the profit or loss is calculated.
start_period (Set to "2022-11-21" by default): The beginning date for calculating the cumulative total profit or loss. This parameter allows the user to define a specific starting point for the analysis.
end_period (Set to the current date by default): The end date for the cumulative total profit or loss calculation. It defaults to the current date but can be set to a specific date for backtesting purposes.
Script Mechanics:
Buy Signal Logic: A buy signal is generated when the closing price is below the highest price of the last 'length' days, adjusted by the 'percentage_drop'.
Profit/Loss Calculation: For each buy signal, the script calculates the profit or loss percentage after 'hold_days' from the purchase. This is displayed on the chart for each trade.
Total P/L Display: The script calculates and displays the cumulative total profit or loss in the defined period (from 'start_period' to 'end_period') in a label on the chart.
Usage:
This script is useful for traders who follow a strategy based on buying assets after significant price drops and holding for a predetermined period. It automates the detection of potential buy opportunities and the calculation of profit or loss, aiding in decision-making and performance analysis.
Forecast: PastFluxDelta PredictionThe theory is that time periods and the conditions during these periods repeat themselves. Especially if it is the same day of the week in the past, there is a high probability that price fluctuations will roughly repeat themselves.
Eternal return (or eternal recurrence) is a philosophical concept which states that time repeats itself in an infinite loop, and that exactly the same events will continue to occur in exactly the same way, over and over again, for eternity.
History does repeat itself.
The stock market is a manifest example.
Chief market strategist at Miller Tabak + Co. Matt Maley pointed out the strong resemblance between the stock market recently and that in the past.
Various scientific studies and articles show that there could be something to this theory
Most of the investors are ignoring the parallels between stocks today and "heady" years 1929, 1999 and 2007…
Post Labor Day sees investors returning to the S&P 500 near all-time highs and some dark economic shadows lurking …
So how should we regard these inescapable results?
Nietzsche said we should embrace them, accept them, and love them. Once they stop, expect them to start again.
But remember that the future is fundamentally uncertain and that past results are by no means a guarantee of future performance.
Based on this, this indicator uses historical trading data from a year, a week or a day ago and compares price fluctuations in the past with current conditions.
"Bars to predict" can be used to indicate how far into the future the indicator is looking.
"Amount of bars to show" determines how many bars are generally displayed. A high value allows you to see how accurate the method was in the past.
Market Health MonitorThe Market Health Monitor is a comprehensive tool designed to assess and visualize the economic health of a market, providing traders with vital insights into both current and future market conditions. This script integrates a range of critical economic indicators, including unemployment rates, inflation, Federal Reserve funds rates, consumer confidence, and housing market indices, to form a robust understanding of the overall economic landscape.
Drawing on a variety of data sources, the Market Health Monitor employs moving averages over periods of 3, 12, 36, and 120 months, corresponding to quarterly, annual, three-year, and ten-year economic cycles. This selection of timeframes is specifically chosen to capture the nuances of economic movements across different phases, providing a balanced view that is sensitive to both immediate changes and long-term trends.
Key Features:
Economic Indicators Integration: The script synthesizes crucial economic data such as unemployment rates, inflation levels, and housing market trends, offering a multi-dimensional perspective on market health.
Adaptability to Market Conditions: The inclusion of both short-term and long-term moving averages allows the Market Health Monitor to adapt to varying market conditions, making it a versatile tool for different trading strategies.
Oscillator Thresholds for Recession and Growth: The script sets specific thresholds that, when crossed, indicate either potential economic downturns (recessions) or periods of growth (expansions), allowing traders to anticipate and react to changing market conditions proactively.
Color-Coded Visualization: The Market Health Monitor employs a color-coding system for ease of interpretation:
-- A red background signals unhealthy economic conditions, cautioning traders about potential risks.
-- A bright red background indicates a confirmed recession, as declared by the NBER, signaling a critical time for traders to reassess risk exposure.
-- A green background suggests a healthy market with expected economic expansion, pointing towards growth-oriented opportunities.
Comprehensive Market Analysis: By combining various economic indicators, the script offers a holistic view of the market, enabling traders to make well-informed decisions based on a thorough understanding of the economic environment.
Key Criteria and Parameters:
Economic Indicators:
Labor Market: The unemployment rate is a critical indicator of economic health.
High or rising unemployment indicates reduced consumer spending and economic stress.
Inflation: Key for understanding monetary policy and consumer purchasing power.
Persistent high inflation can lead to economic instability, while deflation can signal weak
demand.
Monetary Policy: Reflected by the Federal Reserve funds rate.
Changes in the rate can influence economic activity, borrowing costs, and investor
sentiment.
Consumer Confidence: A predictor of consumer spending and economic activity.
Reflects the public’s perception of the economy
Housing Market: The housing market often leads the economy into recession and recovery.
Weakness here can signal broader economic problems.
Market Data:
Stock Market Indices: Reflect overall investor sentiment and economic
expectations. No gains in a stock market could potentially indicate that economy is
slowing down.
Credit Conditions: Indicated by the tightness of bank lending, signaling risk
perception.
Commodity Insight:
Crude Oil Prices: A proxy for global economic activity.
Indicator Timeframe:
A default monthly timeframe is chosen to align with the release frequency of many economic indicators, offering a balanced view between timely data and avoiding too much noise from short-term fluctuations. Surely, it can be chosen by trader / analyst.
The Market Health Monitor is more than just a trading tool—it's a comprehensive economic guide. It's designed for traders who value an in-depth understanding of the economic climate. By offering insights into both current conditions and future trends, it encourages traders to navigate the markets with confidence, whether through turbulent times or in periods of growth. This tool doesn't just help you follow the market—it helps you understand it.
Whalemap [BigBeluga]The Whalemap indicator aims to spot big buying and selling activity represented as big orders for a possible bottom or top formation on the chart.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator uses volume to spot big volume activity represented as big orders in the market.
for i = 0 to len - 1
blV.vol += (close > close ? volume : 0)
brV.vol += (close < close ? volume : 0)
When volume exceeds its own threshold, it is a sign that volume is exceeding its normal value and is considered as a "Whale order" or "Whale activity," which is then plotted on the chart as circles.
🔶 DETAILS
The indicator plots Bubbles on the chart with different sizes indicating the buying or selling activity. The bigger the circle, the more impact it will have on the market.
On each circle is also plotted a line, and its own weight is also determined by the strength of its own circle; the bigger the circle, the bigger the line.
Old buying/selling activity can also be used for future support and resistance to spot interesting areas.
The more price enters old buying/selling activity and starts producing orders of the same direction, it might be an interesting point to take a closer look.
🔶 EXAMPLES
The chart above is showing us price reacting to big orders, finding good bottoms in price and good tops in confluence with old activity.
🔶 SETTINGS
Users will have the options to:
Filter options to adjust buying and selling sensitivity.

Rotation Cycles GraphRotation Cycles Graph Indicator
Overview:
The Rotation Cycles Graph Indicator is designed to visualize rotation cycles in financial markets. It aims to provide insights into shifts between various market phases, including growth, weakening, recovery, and contraction, allowing traders to potentially identify changing market dynamics.
Key Components:
Z-Score Calculation:
The indicator employs Z-score calculation to normalize data and identify deviations from the mean. This is instrumental in understanding the current state of the market relative to its historical behavior.
Ehlers Loop Visualization:
The Ehlers Loop function generates a visual representation of rotation cycles. It utilizes x and y coordinates on the chart to represent market conditions. These coordinates determine the position and categorization of the market state.
Table Visualization:
At the bottom of the chart, a table categorizes market conditions based on x and y values. This table serves as a reference to understand the current market phase.
Customizable Parameters:
The indicator offers users the flexibility to adjust several parameters:
Length and Smoothness: Users can set the length and smoothness parameters for the Z-score calculation, allowing for customization based on the market's volatility.
Graph Settings: Parameters such as bar scale, graph position, and the length of the tail for visualization can be fine-tuned to suit individual preferences.
Understanding Coordinates:
The x and y coordinates plotted on the chart represent specific market conditions. Interpretation of these coordinates aids in recognizing shifts in market behavior.
This screenshot shows visual representation behind logic of X and Y and their rotation cycles
Here is an example how rotation marker moved from growing to weakening and to the contraction quad, during a big market crush:
Note:
This indicator is a visualization tool and should be used in conjunction with other analytical methods for comprehensive market analysis.
Understanding the context and nuances of market dynamics is essential for accurate interpretation of the Rotation Cycles Graph Indicator.
Big thanks to @PineCodersTASC for their indicator, what I used as a reference
ka66: Enhanced MACDThis is a more configurable MACD:
Allows various moving averages (EMA, SMA, Hull, WMA) instead of just EMA.
Better color coding for MACD line, rising vs. falling
Optional Normalised Scale; my pet peeve with standard MACD, that we can't really easily compare it across instruments. Taking a page from the ATR Percent indicator, we allow for normalising the MACD and Signal lines relative to Close: MACD / Close x 100. Ditto for the Signal line. This is really useful for reversal type scenarios, and to avoid ranging markets.
Threshold horizontal line markers to further support the use of the Normalised Scale. Simply configure this via the Style Settings.
Period SeparatorA useful indicator designed to display vertical line separators at specified periods, for example every hour or every 4 hours.
To use this indicator, you must be in a timeframe lower than the specified timeframe on the indicator.
I haven't found any other scripts that allow for custom time frames so I created my own :)
Let me know if you have any suggestions.
FX DispersionThis script calculates the dispersion of a basket of 5 FX pairs and then calculates the z-score the z-score is then made into a composite using the 30 and 60 ema of the z-score to smooth any noise. It must be used on one of the FX pairs in the basket and on the 1-minute timeframe as it has been hardcoded for 1 min use below.
Interpretation - Dispersion is a component of volatility - the dispersion of the underlying basket increases above 0.5 and decreases below 0.5.
Although increased dispersion is beneficial to momentum and trend-following strategies on the monthly and weekly timeframes. Observe this on the 1-minute timeframe and how dispersion crossing above/ below 0.5 it can signal reversion or momentum for the next period.
INTELLECT_city - abcd PatternThe ABCD Pattern indicator is a tool that helps identify potential geometric patterns of price movement on the chart of a financial instrument. This indicator is based on trading strategies that use the formation of four separate points, designated A, B, C and D.
Point A: The starting point of the pattern, which usually represents the end of the previous price trend.
Point B: The top of the first price wave directed against the current trend.
Point C: Completion of the second price wave started from point B. Often point C is formed at a level close to the completion of the correction.
Point D: The end point of the pattern where price forms a third wave directed towards the original trend.
The indicator displays the AB, BC and CD lines on the chart and also provides labels for these levels. This can help traders and analysts identify and analyze potential ABCD patterns on a price action chart.
It is important to remember that the ABCD Pattern does not guarantee successful trading and traders should combine it with other analysis methods and strategies to make informed decisions. Testing and adaptation to specific market conditions are also key steps when using this indicator.
BTI - Bitcoin (BTC) Top Indicator [Logue]Bitcoin top indicator. This indicator is a combination of multiple on-chain and seasonality BTC macro cycle top indicators, plus the Pi-Cycle top moving average. Because there is no magic single indicator to detect macro cycle tops in bitcoin, the BTI detects confluence of multiple indicators to select tops of each BTC macro cycle. The individual indicators used for the BTI are:
1) Cumulative Value Days Destroyed (CVDD) - The CVDD was created by Willy Woo and is the ratio of the cumulative value of Coin Days Destroyed in USD and the market age (in days). While this indicator is used to detect bottoms normally, an extension is used to allow detection of BTC tops. When the BTC price goes above the CVDD extension, BTC is generally considered to be overvalued. Because the "strength" of the BTC tops has decreased over the cycles, a logarithmic function for the extension was created by fitting past cycles as log extension = slope * time + intercept. This indicator is triggered when the BTC price is above the CVDD extension.
2) Net Unrealized Profit Loss (NUPL) - The NUPL measures the profit state of the bitcoin network to determine if past transfers of BTC are currently in an unrealized profit or loss state.
Values above zero indicate that the network is in overall profit, while values below zero indicate the network is in overall loss. Highly positive NUPL values indicate overvaluation of the BTC network. Based on decreasing "strength" of BTC tops, a decreasing linear function (trigger = slope * time + intercept) was fit to past cycle tops. Therefore, future trigger values can be calculated over time. This indicator is triggered when the NUPL is above the trigger value.
3) Market Value-Realized Value Z-score (MVRV-Z) - The MVRV-Z measures the value of the bitcoin network by comparing the market cap to the realized value and dividing by the standard deviation of the market cap (market cap – realized cap) / std(market cap)). When the market value is significantly higher than the realized value, the bitcoin network is "overvalued". Very high values have signaled cycle tops in the past. This indicator is triggered when the MVRVZ value is above 55.
4) Puell multiple (PUELL) - PUELL is the ratio between the daily coin issuance in USD and its 365-day moving average. This multiple helps to measure miner profitability. When the PUELL goes to extremely high values relative to historical values, it indicates the profitability of the miners is very high and a top may be near. This indicator triggers when the PUELL is above 3.33.
5) Calendar Seasonality Index (CSI) - The CSI takes advantage of the consistency of BTC cycles. Past cycles have formed macro tops every four years between October 21st and December 12th. Therefore, this indicator triggers at set times that are marked every four years between these two dates.
6) Halving Seasonality Index (HSI) - The HSI, as with the CSI, takes advantage of the consistency of BTC cycles following the major event that is the halving. Aside from the first halving cycle, cycles have formed macro tops approximately 538 days after each halving. Therefore, this indicator triggers at set times that are marked 528 to 548 days (i.e., 538 +- 10 days) after each halving.
7) Polylog Regression (PLR) - The BTC cycle tops and bottoms were separately fit using a polynomial regression for the PLR. The bottom band was fit on much more data than the top band, so is likely to be more reliable. The shape of the regression into the future was estimated, so may not be accurate into the future, but is the best fit of tops and bottoms to date. This indicator is used to estimate when tops and bottoms are near when the price goes into the top or bottom bands. This triggers when the BTC price is inside or above the upper polylog regression channel.
8) Realized Price (RP) - The RP is summation of the value of each BTC when it last moved divided by the total number of BTC in circulation. This gives an estimation of the average "purchase" price of BTC on the bitcoin network based on when it was last transacted. This indicator tells us if the average network participant is in a state of profit or loss. This indicator is normally used to detect BTC bottoms, but an extension can be used to detect when the bitcoin network is "highly" overvalued. Because the "strength" of the BTC tops has decreased over the cycles, a logarithmic function for the extension was created by fitting past cycles as log extension = slope * time + intercept. This indicator triggers when the BTC price is above the realized price extension.
9) Pi-cycle Top (PCT) - The PCT indicator is simply the cross of the 111-day moving average above a 2x multiple of the 350-day moving average of the BTC price. While there is no fundamental reasoning behind why this works, it has worked to indicate previous bitcoin tops by taking advantage of the cyclicality of the BTC price and measurement overextension of BTC price. This indicator triggers when the fast moving average (111-day) crosses above the 2x multiple of the slow moving average (350-day).
10) Transaction Fee Spike (TFS) - Transaction fees on the bitcoin network can signal a mania phase when they increase well above historical values. This mania phase may indicate we are near a top in the BTC price. The daily transaction fee total in USD is divided by the number of daily transactions to calculate the average transaction fee paid on the bitcoin network. The transaction fees increasing above $40 trigger this indicator.
The on-chain indicators (CVDD, NUPL, MVRV-Z, PUELL, RP, and TFS) work together to give a health check of the BTC price as compared to its network health. The seasonality indicators (CSI, HSI, and PLR) work together to map the macro cycles of BTC. The PCT gives a view of the overvaluation of the BTC price. Each of these indicators is weighted evenly when selected and if over 45% of the indicators are triggering on a candle (i.e., at least 5 of 10), the overall BTI indicator prints a clear signal -- a red dot with a white middle portion between the white horizontal lines at the top of the indicator. This signal is meant to indicate when the macro cycle top is likely already hit or is near. Each of the individual indicators used for the BTI are proven macro top indicators over multiple cycles.
Each of the individual indicators are shown in their own rows to visualize which indicators are triggering. You are able to deselect any indicator you do not wish to have considered and select it back again. To prepare you for indicators triggering, the BTI shows dark blue or dark green when the indicator is close to triggering (i.e., generally around 20% from the trigger value, a less intense background will appear, and 10% from the trigger value, a more intense background will appear). The color of the individual indicators turns pink when they are triggered. The background color of the BTI becomes blue when at least 30% of the indicators considered are triggering and it becomes purple/pink when the BTI fully triggers. See the BTC chart above the indicator showing the performance of the indicator in picking out macro top regions (red dots with white middle portion). Because not all daily data for BTC can be shown on one chart, ensure you also play with the indictor yourself. The BLX is most appropriate, but the indicator works on all BTC/USD charts. Because of the limits imposed by TradingView, the indicator doesn't work on time frames lower than 4 h or higher than the weekly.
You can use this indicator to help you understand when the BTC price is more likely topping based on past performance of these indicators. This indicator pairs with the BBI (Bitcoin (BTC) Bottom Indictor) and the BTB (Bitcoin Top and Bottom indicator).
Use this indicator at your own risk. I make no assertions that this indicator will work to detect any future top since we all know that past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Minervini Stage 2 AnalysisHandbook for Minervini Stage 2 Analysis Indicator
Introduction
This handbook provides detailed instructions and guidelines for using the Minervini Stage 2 Analysis Indicator based on Mark Minervini's swing trading methodology. This indicator is designed for traders focusing on US stocks, aiming to capture gains in medium to short-term uptrends (swing trading).
Understanding Stage 2
Stage 2 represents a bullish uptrend in a stock's price. Mark Minervini emphasizes entering long positions during this phase. The stage is identified using four key criteria related to moving averages (MAs).
Indicator Criteria
Stock Price Above MA 150 and 200: Indicates an overall uptrend.
MA 150 Above MA 200: Signals a stronger medium-term trend compared to the long-term trend.
MA 200 Trending Up for At Least 1 Month (22 Days): Confirms a stable uptrend.
MA 50 Above Both MA 150 and 200: Shows short-term strength and momentum.
Using the Indicator
Entering Trades: Consider long positions when all four criteria are met. This signifies that the stock is in a Stage 2 uptrend.
Monitoring Trades: Regularly check if the stock continues to meet these criteria. The indicator provides a clear visual and textual representation for ease of monitoring.
Alarm Signals and Exit Strategy
One Criterion Not Met: This serves as an alarm signal. Increased vigilance is required, and traders should prepare for a potential exit.
Two Criteria Not Met: Strong indication to close the trade. This suggests the stock may be transitioning out of Stage 2, increasing the risk of holding the position.
Risk Management
Stop-Loss Orders: Consider setting a trailing stop-loss to protect profits and minimize losses.
Position Sizing: Adjust position sizes according to your risk tolerance and portfolio strategy.
Volume and Relative Strength Analysis
Volume Analysis: Look for increased trading volume as confirmation when the stock price moves above key MAs.
Relative Strength (RS) Rating: Compare the stock's performance to the broader market to gauge its strength.
Limitations and Considerations
Market Conditions: The indicator's effectiveness may vary with market conditions. It is more reliable in a bullish market environment.
Supplementary Analysis: Combine this indicator with other analysis methods (fundamental, technical) for a holistic approach.
Continuous Learning: Stay updated with market trends and adjust your strategy accordingly.
Conclusion
The Minervini Stage 2 Analysis Indicator is a powerful tool for identifying potential long positions in uptrending stocks. Its reliance on specific criteria aligns with Mark Minervini's proven swing trading strategy. However, always exercise due diligence and risk management in your trading decisions.
