Extremes

Extreme Pressure Zones Indicator (EPZ) [BullByte]Extreme Pressure Zones Indicator(EPZ) The Extreme Pressure Zones (EPZ) Indicator is a proprietary market analysis tool designed to highlight potential overbought and oversold "pressure zones" in any financial chart. It does this by combining several unique measurements of price action and volume into a single, bounded oscillator (0–100). Unlike simple momentum or volatility indicators, EPZ captures multiple facets of market pressure: price rejection, trend momentum, supply/demand imbalance, and institutional (smart money) flow. This is not a random mashup of generic indicators; each component was chosen and weighted to reveal extreme market conditions that often precede reversals or strong continuations. What it is? EPZ estimates buying/selling pressure and highlights potential extreme zones with a single, bounded 0–100 oscillator built from four normalized components. Context-aware weighting adapts to volatility, trendiness, and relative volume. Visual tools include adaptive thresholds, confirmed-on-close extremes, divergence, an MTF dashboard, and optional gradient candles. Purpose and originality (not a mashup) Purpose: Identify when pressure is building or reaching potential extremes while filtering noise across regimes and symbols. Originality: EPZ integrates price rejection, momentum cascade, pressure distribution, and smart money flow into one bounded scale with context-aware weighting. It is not a cosmetic mashup of public indicators. Why a trader might use EPZ EPZ provides a multi-dimensional gauge of market extremes that standalone indicators may miss. Traders might use it to: Spot Reversals: When EPZ enters an "Extreme High" zone (high red), it implies selling pressure might soon dominate. This can hint at a topside reversal or at least a pause in rallies. Conversely, "Extreme Low" (green) can highlight bottom-fish opportunities. The indicator's divergence module (optional) also finds hidden bullish/bearish divergences between price and EPZ, a clue that price momentum is weakening. Measure Momentum Shifts: Because EPZ blends momentum and volume, it reacts faster than many single metrics. A rising MPO indicates building bullish pressure, while a falling MPO shows increasing bearish pressure. Traders can use this like a refined RSI: above 50 means bullish bias, below 50 means bearish bias, but with context provided by the thresholds. Filter Trades: In trend-following systems, one could require EPZ to be in the bullish (green) zone before taking longs, or avoid new trades when EPZ is extreme. In mean-reversion systems, one might specifically look to fade extremes flagged by EPZ. Multi-Timeframe Confirmation: The dashboard can fetch a higher timeframe EPZ value. For example, you might trade a 15-minute chart only when the 60-minute EPZ agrees on pressure direction. Components and how they're combined Rejection (PRV) – Captures price rejection based on candle wicks and volume (see Price Rejection Volume). Momentum Cascade (MCD) – Blends multiple momentum periods (3,5,8,13) into a normalized momentum score. Pressure Distribution (PDI) – Measures net buy/sell pressure by comparing volume on up vs down candles. Smart Money Flow (SMF) – An adaptation of money flow index that emphasizes unusual volume spikes. Each of these components produces a 0–100 value (higher means more bullish pressure). They are then weighted and averaged into the final Market Pressure Oscillator (MPO), which is smoothed and scaled. By combining these four views, EPZ stands out as a comprehensive pressure gauge – the whole is greater than the sum of parts Context-aware weighting: Higher volatility → more PRV weight Trendiness up (RSI of ATR > 25) → more MCD weight Relative volume > 1.2x → more PDI weight SMF holds a stable weight The weighted average is smoothed and scaled into MPO ∈ with 50 as the neutral midline. What makes EPZ stand out Four orthogonal inputs (price action, momentum, pressure, flow) unified in a single bounded oscillator with consistent thresholds. Adaptive thresholds (optional) plus robust extreme detection that also triggers on crossovers, so static thresholds work reliably too. Confirm Extremes on Bar Close (default ON): dots/arrows/labels/alerts print on closed bars to avoid repaint confusion. Clean dashboard, divergence tools, pre-alerts, and optional on-price gradients. Visual 3D layering uses offsets for depth only,no lookahead. Recommended markets and timeframes Best: liquid symbols (index futures, large-cap equities, major FX, BTC/ETH). Timeframes: 5–15m (more signals; consider higher thresholds), 1H–4H (balanced), 1D (clear regimes). Use caution on illiquid or very low TFs where wick/volume geometry is erratic. Logic and thresholds MPO ∈ ; 50 = neutral. Above 50 = bullish pressure; below 50 = bearish. Static thresholds (defaults): thrHigh = 70, thrLow = 30; warning bands 5 pts inside extremes (65/35). Adaptive thresholds (optional): thrHigh = min(BaseHigh + 5, mean(MPO,100) + stdev(MPO,100) × ExtremeSensitivity) thrLow = max(BaseLow − 5, mean(MPO,100) − stdev(MPO,100) × ExtremeSensitivity) Extreme detection High: MPO ≥ thrHigh with peak/slope or crossover filter. Low: MPO ≤ thrLow with trough/slope or crossover filter. Cooldown: 5 bars (default). A new extreme will not print until the cooldown elapses, even if MPO re-enters the zone. Confirmation "Confirm Extremes on Bar Close" (default ON) gates extreme markers, pre-alerts, and alerts to closed bars (non-repainting). Divergences Pivot-based bullish/bearish divergence; tags appear only after left/right bars elapse (lookbackPivot). MTF HTF MPO retrieved with lookahead_off; values can update intrabar and finalize at HTF close. This is disclosed and expected. Inputs and defaults (key ones) Core: Sensitivity=1.0; Analysis Period=14; Smoothing=3; Adaptive Thresholds=OFF. Extremes: Base High=70, Base Low=30; Extreme Sensitivity=1.5; Confirm Extremes on Bar Close=ON; Cooldown=5; Dot size Small/Tiny. Visuals: Heatmap ON; 3D depth optional; Strength bars ON; Pre-alerts OFF; Divergences ON with tags ON; Gradient candles OFF; Glow ON. Dashboard: ON; Position=Top Right; Size=Normal; MTF ON; HTF=60m; compact overlay table on price chart. Advanced caps: Max Oscillator Labels=80; Max Extreme Guide Lines=80; Divergence objects=60. Dashboard: what each element means Header: EPZ ANALYSIS. Large readout: Current MPO; color reflects state (extreme, approaching, or neutral). Status badge: "Extreme High/Low", "Approaching High/Low", "Bullish/Neutral/Bearish". HTF cell (when MTF ON): Higher-timeframe MPO, color-coded vs extremes; updates intrabar, settles at HTF close. Predicted (when MTF OFF): Simple MPO extrapolation using momentum/acceleration—illustrative only. Thresholds: Current thrHigh/thrLow (static or adaptive). Components: ASCII bars + values for PRV, MCD, PDI, SMF. Market metrics: Volume Ratio (x) and ATR% of price. Strength: Bar indicator of |MPO − 50| × 2. Confidence: Heuristic gauge (100 in extremes, 70 in warnings, 50 with divergence, else |MPO − 50|). Convenience only, not probability. How to read the oscillator MPO Value (0–100): A reading of 50 is neutral. Values above ~55 are increasingly bullish (green), while below ~45 are increasingly bearish (red). Think of these as "market pressure". Extreme Zones: When MPO climbs into the bright orange/red area (above the base-high line, default 70), the chart will display a dot and downward arrow marking that extreme. Traders often treat this as a sign to tighten stops or look for shorts. Similarly, a bright green dot/up-arrow appears when MPO falls below the base-low (30), hinting at a bullish setup. Heatmap/Candles: If "Pressure Heatmap" is enabled, the background of the oscillator pane will fade green or red depending on MPO. Users can optionally color the price candles by MPO value (gradient candles) to see these extremes on the main chart. Prediction Zone(optional): A dashed projection line extends the MPO forward by a small number of bars (prediction_bars) using current MPO momentum and acceleration. This is a heuristic extrapolation best used for short horizons (1–5 bars) to anticipate whether MPO may touch a warning or extreme zone. It is provisional and becomes less reliable with longer projection lengths — always confirm predicted moves with bar-close MPO and HTF context before acting. Divergences: When price makes a higher high but EPZ makes a lower high (bearish divergence), the indicator can draw dotted lines and a "Bear Div" tag. The opposite (lower low price, higher EPZ) gives "Bull Div". These signals confirm waning momentum at extremes. Zones: Warning bands near extremes; Extreme zones beyond thresholds. Crossovers: MPO rising through 35 suggests easing downside pressure; falling through 65 suggests waning upside pressure. Dots/arrows: Extreme markers appear on closed bars when confirmation is ON and respect the 5-bar cooldown. Pre-alert dots (optional): Proximity cues in warning zones; also gated to bar close when confirmation is ON. Histogram: Distance from neutral (50); highlights strengthening or weakening pressure. Divergence tags: "Bear Div" = higher price high with lower MPO high; "Bull Div" = lower price low with higher MPO low. Pressure Heatmap : Layered gradient background that visually highlights pressure strength across the MPO scale; adjustable intensity and optional zone overlays (warning / extreme) for quick visual scanning. A typical reading: If the oscillator is rising from neutral towards the high zone (green→orange→red), the chart may see strong buying culminating in a stall. If it then turns down from the extreme, that peak EPZ dot signals sell pressure. Alerts EPZ: Extreme Context — fires on confirmed extremes (respects cooldown). EPZ: Approaching Threshold — fires in warning zones if no extreme. EPZ: Divergence — fires on confirmed pivot divergences. Tip: Set alerts to "Once per bar close" to align with confirmation and avoid intrabar repaint. Practical usage ideas Trend continuation: In positive regimes (MPO > 50 and rising), pullbacks holding above 50 often precede continuation; mirror for bearish regimes. Exhaustion caution: E High/E Low can mark exhaustion risk; many wait for MPO rollover or divergence to time fades or partial exits. Adaptive thresholds: Useful on assets with shifting volatility regimes to maintain meaningful "extreme" levels. MTF alignment: Prefer setups that agree with the HTF MPO to reduce countertrend noise. Examples Screenshots captured in TradingView Replay to freeze the bar at close so values don't fluctuate intrabar. These examples use default settings and are reproducible on the same bars; they are for illustration, not cherry-picking or performance claims. Example 1 — BTCUSDT, 1h — E Low MPO closed at 26.6 (below the 30 extreme), printing a confirmed E Low. HTF MPO is 26.6, so higher-timeframe pressure remains bearish. Components are subdued (Momentum/Pressure/Smart$ ≈ 29–37), with Vol Ratio ≈ 1.19x and ATR% ≈ 0.37%. A prior Bear Div flagged weakening impulse into the drop. With cooldown set to 5 bars, new extremes are rate-limited. Many traders wait for MPO to curl up and reclaim 35 or for a fresh Bull Div before considering countertrend ideas; if MPO cannot reclaim 35 and HTF stays weak, treat bounces cautiously. Educational illustration only. Example 2 — ETHUSD, 30m — E High A strong impulse pushed MPO into the extreme zone (≥ 70), printing a confirmed E High on close. Shortly after, MPO cooled to ~61.5 while a Bear Div appeared, showing momentum lag as price pushed a higher high. Volume and volatility were elevated (≈ 1.79x / 1.25%). With a 5-bar cooldown, additional extremes won't print immediately. Some treat E High as exhaustion risk—either waiting for MPO rollover under 65/50 to fade, or for a pullback that holds above 50 to re-join the trend if higher-timeframe pressure remains constructive. Educational illustration only. Known limitations and caveats The MPO line itself can change intrabar; extreme markers/alerts do not repaint when "Confirm Extremes on Bar Close" is ON. HTF values settle at the close of the HTF bar. Illiquid symbols or very low TFs can be noisy; consider higher thresholds or longer smoothing. Prediction line (when enabled) is a visual extrapolation only. For coders Pine v6. MTF via request.security with lookahead_off. Extremes include crossover triggers so static thresholds also yield E High/E Low. Extreme markers and pre-alerts are gated by barstate.isconfirmed when confirmation is ON. Arrays prune oldest objects to respect resource limits; defaults (80/80/60) are conservative for low TFs. 3D layering uses negative offsets purely for drawing depth (no lookahead). Screenshot methodology: To make labels legible and to demonstrate non-repainting behavior, the examples were captured in TradingView Replay with "Confirm Extremes on Bar Close" enabled. Replay is used only to freeze the bar at close so plots don't change intrabar. The examples use default settings, include both Extreme Low and Extreme High cases, and can be reproduced by scrolling to the same bars outside Replay.

Williams Fractals for ExtremesThis script, written in Pine Script (version 5), implements an indicator for the automatic detection and visualization of fractal extremes on the price chart. The core algorithm is based on Bill Williams' fractal theory and identifies local highs and lows, which are often used to determine potential reversal points and support/resistance levels in the market. ### Key Features: #### Fractal Detection: - The indicator identifies a fractal high if the middle candle in a sequence of five candles (two on the left and two on the right) has the highest value. - A fractal low is identified if the middle candle in the same type of five-candle sequence has the lowest value. #### Extreme Visualization: - Fractal highs are displayed as red dots on the chart, signaling potential local peaks. - Fractal lows are shown as green dots, indicating local troughs. ### Usage: - The indicator is designed for use across all timeframes and can be applied to both cryptocurrency and traditional financial markets. - Highlighted points allow traders to quickly spot key levels, aiding in identifying potential zones for trade entry or exit. ### Application in Trading: #### Identifying Key Levels: - Fractal highs and lows can serve as resistance and support levels. A breakout beyond a fractal in either direction may signal a continuation of movement in that direction. #### Finding Reversal Points: - Fractal extremes indicate potential market reversals, making them useful in counter-trend trading strategies. #### Adaptability to Market Conditions: - The indicator updates dynamically with the appearance of new candles, providing traders with real-time fractal extreme levels. ### Settings and Parameters: - In its current version, the script does not include customizable settings as it implements the standard concept of Williams' fractals.

MTF Stationary Extreme IndicatorThe Multiple Timeframe Stationary Extreme Indicator is designed to help traders identify extreme price movements across different timeframes. By analyzing extremes in price action, this indicator aims to provide valuable insights into potential overbought and oversold conditions, offering opportunities for trading decisions. The indicator operates by calculating the difference between the latest high/low and the high/low a specified number of periods back. This difference is expressed as a percentage, allowing for easy comparison and interpretation. Positive values indicate an increase in the extreme, while negative values suggest a decrease. One of the unique features of this indicator is its ability to incorporate multiple timeframes. Traders can choose a higher timeframe to analyze alongside the current timeframe, providing a broader perspective on market dynamics. This feature enables a comprehensive assessment of extreme price movements, considering both short-term and longer-term trends. By observing extreme movements on different timeframes, traders can gain deeper insights into market conditions. This can help in identifying potential areas of confluence or divergence, supporting more informed trading decisions. For example, when extreme movements align across multiple timeframes, it may indicate a higher probability of a significant price reversal or continuation. To use the Multiple Timeframe Stationary Extreme Indicator effectively, traders should consider a few key points: - Choose the Timeframes : Select the appropriate timeframes based on your trading strategy and objectives. The current timeframe represents the focus of your analysis, while the higher timeframe provides a broader context. Ensure the chosen timeframes align with your trading style and the asset you are trading. - Interpret Extreme Movements : Pay attention to extreme movements that breach certain levels. Values above zero indicate a rise in the extreme, potentially signaling overbought conditions. Conversely, values below zero suggest a decrease, potentially indicating oversold conditions. Use these extreme movements as potential entry or exit signals, in conjunction with other indicators or confirmation signals. - Validate with Price Action : Confirm the extreme movements observed on the indicator with price action. Look for confluence between the indicator's extreme levels and key support or resistance levels, trendlines, or chart patterns. This can provide added confirmation and increase the reliability of the signals generated by the indicator. - Consider Volatility Filters : The indicator can be enhanced by incorporating volatility filters. By adjusting the sensitivity of the extreme differences calculation based on market volatility, traders can adapt the indicator to different market conditions. Higher volatility may require a longer lookback period, while lower volatility may call for a shorter one. Experiment with volatility filters to fine-tune the indicator's performance. - Combine with Other Analysis Techniques : The Multiple Timeframe Stationary Extreme Indicator is most effective when used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy. Combine it with other technical analysis tools, such as trend indicators, oscillators, or chart patterns, to form a well-rounded approach. Consider risk management techniques and money management principles to optimize your trading strategy. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Remember that trading indicators, including the Multiple Timeframe Stationary Extreme Indicator, should not be used in isolation. They serve as tools to assist in decision-making, but they require proper context, analysis, and confirmation. Always conduct thorough analysis and consider market conditions, news events, and other relevant factors before making trading decisions. It's recommended to backtest the indicator on historical data to assess its performance and effectiveness for your trading approach. This will help you understand its strengths and limitations, allowing you to refine and optimize your usage of the indicator.

LNL Smart TICKLNL Smart TICK This study is mostly beneficial for intraday traders. It is basically a user-friendly "colorful" representation of the $TICK chart with highlighted $TICK extremes. This indicator also includes: a simple trend gauge that can visualize the bias for the day, cumulative tick cloud which is showing the cumulative strength of either longs & shorts on the day. $TICK Trend Gauge Although it is just a exponential moving average. This average (default set on 20) works quite well as an overall gauge for the day. Whenever the gauge is green (above zero), any negative $TICK values below -500 can offer great pullback opportunities. Same applies for the red gauge. 20 EMA is below zero ? Great time to fade any +500 or +1000 tick readings. Obviously the gauge can be ajdusted to any number based on personal style. $TICK Extremes (little triangles) These little triangles are triggered anytime $TICK jumps above or below the pre-set values of +1000 or -1000. By just simply observing the $TICK triangles during the day can tell you how much volaility or pressure there is. Sometimes there will be 20 green triangles and only 2 red ones. That obviously mean there is a strong bearish pressure. But there will be days when you are not going to see any triangles at all which can mean there is either a low volatility or the price is stuck in the indecisive market. Cumulative $TICK Cloud Cumulative $TICK by itself is a great study for day traders. It is basically running "counting" $TICK that is adding the previous $TICK values from previous bars. Cumulative $TICK can create a direct picture of the current market sentiment. It is not just a simple green / red line but a cloud that can really show you the depth on the $TICK. Some days, the cloud will be quite wide which is a good sign for the strength to one side, but sometimes the cloud will be so narrow it will practically disappear. This would be telling you the exact opposite - not much conviction to any side. Of course the depth as well as the color of the cloud can change during the day. $TICK & Cumulative $TICK Tables By just looking at these tables. You can immidiately tell the state of the current $TICK. They both can be red or green. It all depends whether the values are positive or negative. The tables are just a little visual addition to the whole $TICK study. Hope it helps.

LNL Keltner CandlesLNL Keltner Candles This indicator plots mean reversion (reversal) arrows with custom painted candles based on the price touch or close above or below keltner channel limits (upper & lower bands). This study was created primarily for swing trading & higher time frames such as daily and weekly. Lower time frames might result in more false signals. Mean Reversal Arrows: 1. Reversal Arrow Up - If the price drops below the lower band extremes, reversal up is the trigger for a bullish mean reversion. 2. Reversal Arrow Down - Once the price reach the higher band extremes, reversal down is the trigger for a bearish mean reversion. The Concept of Mean Reversion: There are just two types of moves in any market: The market is either expanding from the mean or retracing back to the mean. These reversions & epxansions are happening across all types of markets. The goal of this study is to catch the powerful mean reversion from extremes back to the mean. Once the candles light up green / red, it is time to look for the reversal (purple) arrow which triggers the mean reversion setup. Mean reversion is not about catching the next big swing turn to new highs or lows. It is all about the base hits = the mean. So the target here is always the average price. The idea here is to catch the average market ebbs & flows, not the next home run. What Do I Mean by Mean? Mean is usually the average price from the last 20-30 bars. Basically something like a 20 MA or Keltner Channel or Bollinger Band midline are really good visual representators of the mean (average price). Hope it helps.

Daily/Weekly ExtremesBACKGROUND This indicator calculates the daily and weekly +-1 standard deviation of the S&P 500 based on 2 methodologies: 1. VIX - Using the market's expectation of forward volatility, one can calculate the daily expectation by dividing the VIX by the square root of 252 (the number of trading days in a year) - also know as the "rule of 16." Similarly, dividing by the square root of 50 will give you the weekly expected range based on the VIX. 2. ATR - We also provide expected weekly and daily ranges based on 5 day/week ATR. HOW TO USE - This indicator only has 1 option in the settings: choosing the ATR (default) or the VIX to plot the +-1 standard deviation range. - This indicator WILL ONLY display these ranges if you are looking at the SPX or ES futures. The ranges will not be displayed if you are looking at any other symbols - The boundaries displayed on the chart should not be used on their own as bounce/reject levels. They are simply to provide a frame of reference as to where price is trading with respect to the market's implied expectations. It can be used as an indicator to look for signs of reversals on the tape. - Daily and Weekly extremes are plotted on all time frames (even on lower time frames).

Extrema DetectorDetermines local maximums and minimums points in the chart. Parameters: lookback : number of candlesticks to look. extrema_finder_sensivity : If lower, more extreme points will be found (may over-find). Brief algorithm description: Computes a Simple Moving Average (length= extrema_finder_sensivity ), and searches for its local extremes. Given some SMA extreme, it looks the previous extrema_finder_sensivity candlesticks to find the highest (or lowest value). Notes: Is a lagged indicator: determining if the current candlestick have reach a maximum can be delayed to, at most extrema_finder_sensivity -further candlesticks.

B3 Donchian CloudsThis is the Donchian Channel expressed with a percentage cloud. Default 12.5% of the range will be filled at each edge, this helps to show reversal possibilities as price returns to the area between the clouds. This offers a usage to essentially fade the turtle trader system. That system is loosely based on the playing of the breakouts of the the channel... as you can see the that last turtle trade long in YM1! was and is off the charts awesome. I will look for the fall out of the cloud to short the market.
