+ Rate of ChangeNOTE!* If you were using my previous + Rate of Change (and OBV) indicator, I will not be updating that. OBV was moved to my + Breadth & Volume indicator.
This indicator here is basically and updated version of the old indicator, without OBV.
The Rate of Change, or RoC, is a momentum indicator that measures the percentage change in price between the current period and the price n periods ago.
It oscillates above and below a zeroline, basically showing positive or negative momentum.
I applied the OBV's calculation to it, but without the inclusion of volume (also added a lookback period) to see what would happen. I rather liked the result.
I call this the "Cumulative Rate of Change." I only recently realized that this is actually just the OBV without volume, however the OBV does not have a lookback period, and this indicator does.
Doing some more fiddling, I realized that removing both the signum and the volume from the calculation gets you basically a price chart, but calculated as the change in price over n periods. I'm leaving this in because maybe someone discovers they really like having a line chart with moving averages or some other indicator on it to leave their main chart indicator free (giving a more clear look at price action). Can't hurt, right?
Default lookback is set to 1, but play with longer settings (especially if using the traditional RoC, which is by default in TV set to 10, and is nigh on useless at 1--I like 13).
Default source is set to each candle close, but give ohlc4 a look. It smooths out the indicator a bit, and because it's an average of the open, high, low, and close it should give a better idea of what price in general is doing.
Moving averages, Bollinger Bands, Donchian Channels, candle coloring and alerts are my usual additions.
Below are some comparison images of the different indicators wrapped up in here.
Comparison of Cumulative Rate of Change with two different sources. Lookback set to 1.
Cumulative Rate of Change as a price chart, essentially.
And, lastly, the traditional Rate of Change indicator.
Divergence
Inverse Divergence [HeWhoMustNotBeNamed]Experimental.
In regular scenario divergence calculation follows these procedure
Pivots on price are considered as primary source
They are compared with pivots on oscillators
Trend bias of price is used
This is an experimental version where
Pivots on oscillators are considered as primary source
They are compared with pivots on price
Trend bias of oscillator is used. Using percentrank to define oscillator trend
Caution: Not meant for trading :)
+ REX OscillatorSo, what is the REX oscillator, you might be asking yourself.
"The Rex oscillator is an indicator that measures market behavior based on the relationship of the close to the open, high and low values of the same bar. A big difference between the high and close on a bar indicates weakness, and wide disparity between the low and close indicates strength. The difference between open and close also indicates market performance."
The True Value of a Bar (TVB) gives an indication of how healthy the market is. A negative close and a positive TVB (or vice versa) is an indication of the market building strength on the opposing side of the trend. The Rex oscillator is a moving average of the TVB value with the specified period.
I first came across this watching one of many No Nonsense Forex videos. Mostly, from comments I've read, it is used as an exit indicator for people who trade with a system similar or identical to the one VP espouses in his NNFX blog. I think it's perfectly apt to use as an entry indicator as well, or even as both, perhaps, depending on the moving average you chose to apply to the TVB.
There are a few other versions of this on tradingview, but I thought I'd make an updated version. Added Donchian Channels because I like the idea of a dynamic sort of overbought/sold area. I left out the basis because the indicator pivots around a center line, and has a signal line as well. A basis line just seemed like too much, and would likely not be very useful.
The additional usual things that I incorporate into my indicators are included here: optional candle coloring, alerts, and probably a too large selection of moving averages.
Credit to Nemozny for the FRAMA calculation. I may add that to other indicators I have.
Binary ComboThis script combines Stochastic Divergence and WaveTrend Crosses.
Stochastic Divergence may be useful for seeing a shift in momentum before the price action reflects it.
WaveTrend gives us context to the short term trend.
You can combine these together to find good entries.
RSI Linear Regression with ZigZag by zdmreBoth the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and the Linear Regression ( LR ) rank among the most popular momentum indicators used in trading. When used in combination with other technical indicators (ZigZag), both RSI, LR and ZigZag can offer value in validating trade opportunities to optimize your risk management practices.
Here’s a look at how to use RSI, LR and ZigZag (Can be used for divergence patterns.) as part of your trade analysis.
If you have new ideas to improve this indicator then let me know please.
***Use it at your own risk
MTF DPO-RSI IndicatorThis indicator uses the principle of taking the RSI of DPO readings across multiple time frames in order to provide trade signals and an overarching view of market conditions to the trader. My hope with creating this indicator was to present more divergence based signals than your typical indicator, while still keeping those signals at a high quality.
In the settings menu, you may specify:
Indicator Timeframe - the chart resolution that is used to calculate values.
Source DPO Length - the number of bars used to calculate the Detrended Price Oscillator value. The DPO value is the source for the RSI calculations.
DPO Hull Smoothing - how much smoothing is applied to the DPO . Smoothing is accomplished by taking a Hull Moving Average of the closing price, and using this to calculate the DPO value.
RSI Length - the number of bars used to calculate the RSI of the DPO value.
Time Multipliers 1 through 6 - use this to define what resolution each plot will represent. A value of 1 will represent the current Indicator Timeframe. A value of 3 will represent 3 times the current Indicator Timeframe, etc.
Show Plot 1 through 6 - toggles the display of plots.
How I trade with this indicator:
A value of under 30 represents an over sold state for that particular plot. A value of over 70 represents an overbought state for that plot.
Identify divergences on a lower timeframe plot which are apparent in overbought or oversold conditions, and confirm the signal with an overbought or oversold condition, or a divergence on a higher timeframe plot. Divergences which begin in oversold or overbought territory and end inside the 30-70 range tend to be more reliable signals, in my experience. Like all indicators, this is best when used in conjunction with other indicators. Trend indicators, such as double EMA's and Supertrend are my favorite pairing, and a stochastic RSI is a good tool to have as well.
This is my first published indicator! If you find unique ways to use it, drop me a message. I'd love to know what you find. :)
Divergence-Support/ResistenceAnother script based on zigzag, divergence, and to yield support and resistence levels.
This idea started with below two concepts:
▶ Support and resistence are simply levels where price has rejected to go further down or up. Usually, we can derive this based on pivots. But, if we start looking at every pivot, there will be many of them and may be confusing to understand which one to consider.
▶ Lot of people asked about one of my previous script on divergence detector on how to use it. I believe divergence should be considered as area of support and resistence because, they only amount to temporary weakness in momentum and nothing more. As per my understanding
Trend > Hidden Divergence > Divergence > Oscillator Levels of Overbought and Oversold
⬜ Process
▶ Now combining the above two concepts - what we are trying to do here is draw support resistence lines only on pivots which has observed either divergence or hidden divergence. Continuation and indecision pivots are ignored.
▶ Input requires only few parameters.
Zigzag lengths and oscillator to be used. Oscillator periods are automatically calculated based on zigzag length. Hence no other information required. You can also chose custom oscillator via external source.
▶ Display include horizontal lines of support/resistence which are drawn from the candle from where divergence or hidden divergence is detected.
▶ Support resistence lines are colored based on divergence. Green shades for bullish divergence and bullish hidden divergence whereas red shades for bearish divervence and bearish hidden divergence. Please note, red and green lines does not mean they only provide resistence or support. Any lines which are below the price should be treated as support and any line which are above the price should be treated as resistence.
▶ Divergence symbols are also printed on the bar from where divergence/hidden divergence is detected.
↗ - Bullish Hidden Divergence
↘ - Bearish Hidden Divergence
⤴ - Bullish Divergence
⤵ - Bearish Divergence
▶ Script also demonstrates usage of libraries effectively. I have used following libraries in this code.
import HeWhoMustNotBeNamed/ zigzag /2 as zg
import HeWhoMustNotBeNamed/enhanced_ta/8 as eta
import HeWhoMustNotBeNamed/ supertrend /4 as st
Can be good combination to use it with harmonic patterns.
Volume Price Trend with Divergence and Pivot Points The volume price trend indicator is used to determine the balance between a security’s demand and supply. The percentage change in the share price trend shows the relative supply or demand of a particular security, while volume indicates the force behind the trend. The VPT indicator is similar to the on-balance volume (OBV) indicator in that it measures cumulative volume and provides traders with information about a security’s money flow.
This is Volume Price Trend or VPT recalculated to be an Oscillator, a Divergence hunter was added, also Pivot Points and Alerts.
VPT is considered a "leading indicator" - in contrast to a "lagging indicator" just as Moving Averages it does not show a confirmation what already happened, but it shows what can happen in the future. For example: The chart is climbing while the VPT oscillator is slowly declining, gets weaker and weaker, maybe even prints bearish divergences? That means that a reversal might be occurring soon. Leading indicators are best paired with Stop and Resistance Lines, general Trendlines , Fib Retracements etc...Your chart is approaching a very important Resistance Trendline but the VPT shows a very positive signal? That means there is a high probability that the Resistance is going to be pushed though and becomes Support in the future.
What are those circles?
-These are Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are those triangles?
- These are Pivots . They show when the VPT oscillator might reverse, this is important to know because many times the price action follows this move.
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.
CDC DivergencesA handy little indicator to help identify different kinds of convergences/divergences
The indicator compares price movements with the momentum and volume movements, Hidden divergences are left out, at least in the first version, because I wanted this indicator to be as simple as possible.
The divergences are shown with labels, user can change the momentum/volume indicator used to identify divergences in the settings.
RSI Overbought Oversold Divergence Strategy w/ Buy/Sell SignalsThis indicator is a copy of my RSI Overbought/Oversold Divergence Indicator with-Alerts
Only difference is that the alerts are disabled, instead it uses tradingviews strategy tester signals
If you want alerts just use the other indicator
RSI Overbought Divergence Indicator with AlertsThis indicator alerts you only if there are divergences after price was oversold or overbought
True Strength Index Histogram [Futures Market]This is a modified version of True Strength Index to fit the scalping trading style in futures market
RSI OBLIVION This is a powerful tool if combined with other parameters. It's an advanced version of an RSI .
It shows OB and OS conditions and price direction or shift of the trend.
This indicator can be used in various ways with all markets.
The current settings are designed to work with futures market.
Combined with our TSI and Price action, RSI OBLIVION is the most reliable KPI out there.
Reached out to us for assistance.
On-chart Wavetrend Divergence with PivotsThis is an OnChart WaveTrend Divergence Indicator with Pivots and Alerts
LazyBears WaveTrend Indicator or also known as "Market Cipher" is an Indicator that is based on Moving Averages, therefore its an "lagging indicator". Lagging indicators are best used in combination with leading indicators. In this script the "leading indicator" component are Daily, Weekly or Monthly Pivots. These Pivots can be used as dynamic Support and Resistance, Stoploss, Take Profit etc.
This indicator combination is best used in larger timeframes. For lower timeframes you might need to change settings to your liking.
What are those circles?
-These are the WaveTrend Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.

MACD AdvancedHello traders!
As you know, MACD is one of the oldest and the most popular indicators for trading. It seems to be a «Hello world indicator» of most technical analysis beginners. It’s easy to interpret and rather useful for many styles of trading. There are many arguments about its accuracy but in my opinion, this indicator can show very good results. However, you should squeeze every drop of its opportunities and we'll help you with it. We invented this script to make the lives of both professionals and freshmen easier.
Our new indicator uses all the opportunities that MACD gives. It takes into consideration divergencies, crossovers, the MACD, and signal line location. It seems to be rather difficult to take into consideration all MACD signals when you don’t use algorithmic trading, but it’ll be trivial using our script. We have integrated some innovations that’ll make traders’ staff easier. As you know, the crossover is considered to be a false signal in conjunction with hidden divergence which predicts another movement. Thus, we catch all types of divergencies and if it’s hidden of another «value» we skip it. However, if there's a crossover with bullish divergence or cross under with bearish, the signal seems to be strong and accurate. In this case, divergence is playing for us and makes the point of entrance more trustable. Our script takes into consideration this case and the innovative divergence chaser doesn’t give any mistakes. Moreover, if crossover takes place above zero line and crosses under bellow it, these signals are considered to be false too. It’s a trivial task comparing with the previous, thus it’s extremely simple for our script. We called it MACD Advanced cause it uses all the power of MACD with the power of invasive divergence chasers. The usage of it is trivial. Just add it to the chart, tune the parameters like MACD and tune the divergence chaser and get very accurate signals. We decided not to draw the bars to make signals more visible. It seems to be very nice!
I hope guys you'll enjoy it and it'll become a part of your trading staff.
Multi-ZigZag Multi-Oscillator Trend DetectorThis table is intended to give you snapshot of how price and oscillators are moving along with zigzag pivots.
This is done in the same lines of Zigzag-Trend-Divergence-Detector
But, here are the differences
Table shows multiple oscillator movements at a same time instead of one selected oscillator
Divergence is not calculated and also supertrend based trend. Trend can be calculated based on zigzag movements. However, lets keep this for future enhancements.
This system also uses multiple zigzags instead of just one.
⬜ Process
▶ Derive multiple zigzags - Code is taken from Multi-ZigZag
▶ Along with zigzags - also calculate different oscillators and attach it to zigzag pivot.
▶ Calculate directions of zigzag pivots and corresponding oscillators.
▶ Plot everything in the table on last bar.
⬜ Table components
Table contains following data:
Directional legends are:
⇈ - Higher High (Green)
⇊ - Lower Low (Red)
⭡- Lower High (Orange)
⭣ - Higher Low (Lime)
⬜ Input Parameters
▶ Source : Default is close. If Unchecked - uses high/low data for calculating pivots. Can also use external input such as OBV
▶ Stats : Gives option to select the depth of output (History) and also lets you chose text size and table position.
▶ Oscillators : Oscillator length is derived by multiplying multiplier to zigzag length. For example, for zigzag 5, with 4 as multiplier, all oscillators are calculated with length 20. But, same for zigzag 8 will be 32 and so on.
▶ Available oscillators :
CCI - Commodity Channel Index
CMO - Chande Momentum Oscillator
COG - Center Of Gravity
MFI - Money Flow Index (Shows only if volume is present)
MOM - Momentum oscillator
ROC - Rate Of Change
RSI - Relative Strength Index
TSI - Total Strength Index
WPR - William Percent R
BB - Bollinger Percent B
KC - Keltner Channel Percent K
DC - Donchian Channel Percent D
ADC - Adoptive Donchian Channel Percent D ( Adoptive-Donchian-Channel )
⬜ Challenges
There are 12 oscillators and each zigzag has different length. Which means, there are 48 combinations of the ocillators.
First challenge was generating these values without creating lots of static initialization. Also, note, if the functions are not called on each bar, then they will not yield correct result. This is achieved through initializer function which runs on every bar and stores the oscillator values in an array which emulates multi dimensional array oscillator X zigzag length.
Next challenge was getting these values within function when we need it. While doing so I realized that values stored in array also have historical series and calling array.get will actully get you the entire series and not just the value. This is an important takeaway for me and this can be used for further complex implementations.
Thanks to @LonesomeTheBlue and @LucF for some timely suggestions and interesting technical discussions :)
Moving Average Oscillator by [DM]Greetings colleagues
Today I share an indicator that I had been thinking about for a long time. Its a easy idea but not easy to exploit"
The signals are generated the same as a MACD but the signal lengths are different.
In its standard form, the average signal of all signals is shown.
It has been designed for all those who use moving stockings in a conventional way and do not want to see the moving stockings in the price.
The options are endless on the indicator.
Show or hide all signals
Show or hide fill color of the signals
Show or hide fill gradient color of the signals
Show or hide horizontal lines
Graduation of horizontal lines with only one parameter
Show or hide fill color of horizontal lines
Show or hide fill gradient color of the horizontal lines
Alarms can be configured with any crossover
All sign lengths can be adjusted
You can change the color of each horizontal line and / or hide
Continuous DivergenceDivergence is generally measured on the RSI and limited to finding either:
1. higher highs on the price and lower highs on the RSI (bearish divergence)
2. lower lows on the price and higher lows on the RSI (bullish divergence)
Continuous Divergence (CD) does two things differently. Firstly, it uses the MFI as its primary source of data, due to its volume component giving it higher accuracy. Secondly, it doesn't measure discrete divergence - i.e. between peaks and troughs - but rather a continuous divergence measurement.
Essentially it is measuring at any given time, the correlation between the price and the MFI. This is smoothed with a moving average (configurable) to get cleaner lines.
CD is used to detect both a slowing down of momentum on the current trend, and a reversal of trend due to changing momentum.
Zigzag Trend/Divergence DetectorPullbacks are always hardest part of the trade and when it happen, we struggle to make decision on whether to continue the trade and wait for recovery or cut losses. Similarly, when an instrument is trending well, it is often difficult decision to make if we want to take some profit off the table. This indicator is aimed to make these decisions easier by providing a combined opinion of sentiment based on trend and possible divergence.
⬜ Process
▶ Use any indicator to find trend bias. Here we are using simple supertrend
▶ Use any oscillator. I have added few inbuilt oscillators as option. Default used is RSI.
▶ Find divergence by using zigzag to detect pivot high/low of price and observing indicator movement difference between subsequent pivots in the same direction.
▶ Combine divregence type, divergence bias and trend bias to derive overall sentiment.
Complete details of all the possible combinations are present here along with table legend
⬜Chart Legend
C - Continuation
D - Divergence
H - Hidden Divergence
I - Indeterminate
⬜ Settings
▶ Zigzag parameters : These let you chose zigzag properties. If you check "Use confirmed pivots", then unconfirmed pivot will be ignored in the table and in the chart
▶ Oscillator parameters : Lets you select different oscillators and settings. Available oscillators involve
CCI - Commodity Channel Index
CMO - Chande Momentum Oscillator
COG - Center Of Gravity
DMI - Directional Movement Index (Only ADX is used here)
MACD - Moving average convergence divergence (Can chose either histogram or MACD line)
MFI - Money Flow Index
MOM - Momentum oscillator
ROC - Rate Of Change
RSI - Relative Strength Index
TSI - Total Strength Index
WPR - William Percent R
BB - Bollinger Percent B
KC - Keltner Channel Percent K
DC - Donchian Channel Percent D
ADC - Adoptive Donchian Channel Percent D ( Adoptive-Donchian-Channel )
▶ Trend bias : Supertrend is used for trend bias. Coloring option color candles in the direction of supertrend. More option for trend bias can be added in future.
▶ Stats : Enables you to display history in tabular format.
Overview of settings present here:
⬜ Notes
Trend detection is done only with respect to previous pivot in the same direction. Hence, if chart has too many zigzags in short period, try increasing the zigzag length or chart timeframe. Similarly, if there is a steep trend, use lower timeframe charts to dig further.
Oscillators does not always make pivots at same bar as price. Due to this some the divergence calculation may not be correct. Hence visual inspection is always recommended.
⬜ Possible future enhancements
More options for trend bias
Enhance divergence calculation. Possible options include using oscillator based zigzag as primary or using close prices based zigzag instead of high/low.
Multi level zigzag option - Can be messy to include more than one zigzag. Option can be added to chose either Level1 or Level2 zigzags.
Alerts - Alerts can only be added for confirmed pivots - otherwise it will generate too many unwanted alerts. Will think about it :)
If I get time, I will try to make a video.
Macd Divergence + MTF EMA MACD Divergence + Multi Time Frame EMA
This Strategy uses 3 indicators: the Macd and two emas in different time frames
The configuration of the strategy is:
Macd standar configuration (12, 26, 9) in 1H resolution
10 periods ema, in 1H resolution
5 periods ema, in 15 minutes resolution
We use the two emas to filter for long and short positions.
If 15 minutes ema is above 1H ema, we look for long positions
If 15 minutes ema is below 1H ema, we look for short positions
We can use an aditional filter using a 100 days ema, so when the 15' and 1H emas are above the daily ema we take long positions
Using this filter improves the strategy
We wait for Macd indicator to form a divergence between histogram and price
If we have a bullish divergence, and 15 minutes ema is above 1H ema, we wait for macd line to cross above signal line and we open a long position
If we have a bearish divergence, and 15 minutes ema is below 1H ema, we wait for macd line to cross below signal line and we open a short position
We close both position after a cross in the oposite direction of macd line and signal line
Also we can configure a Take profit parameter and a trailing stop loss
On Balance VolumeEnhanced the original OBV (On Balance Volume) indicator:
- Draw max lines of OBV in the last 30 candles so that we can notice the trend, as well as divergences easier.
- If you use fiat as base currency (USDT in cryptocurrency for example), we can display the OBV in fiat, so that we can compare total trading volume across a list of symbols to find healthy symbols to trade easier.
On-Balance Volume Oscillator with Divergence and PivotsThis is On-Balance Volume recalculated to be an Oscillator, a Divergence hunter was added, also Pivot Points and Alerts.
On-Balance Volume, or OBV is considered a "leading indicator" - in contrast to a "lagging indicator" just as Moving Averages it does not show a confirmation what already happened, but it shows what can happen in the future. For example: The chart is climbing while the OBV oscillator is slowly declining, gets weaker and weaker, maybe even prints bearish divergences? That means that a reversal might be occurring soon. Leading indicators are best paired with Stop and Resistance Lines, general Trendlines, Fib Retracements etc...Your chart is approaching a very important Resistance Trendline but the OBV shows a very positive signal?
