MA % Deviation ChannelMA % Deviation Channel — an indicator for measuring price deviation from the moving average
MA % Deviation Channel (MA%DC) is a visual analysis tool that shows how far the current price deviates from a selected moving average, expressed in percentages. The indicator builds dynamic channels based on historical percentage deviations, helping traders identify statistical extremes and use them as potential reversal or continuation zones.
How the indicator works
MA%DC calculates the percentage deviation of High and Low from the chosen MA and stores these values in arrays. Based on the average deviation values, the script plots four key levels:
Avg. High Dev. — average deviation of highs from the MA
Avg. Low Dev. — average deviation of lows from the MA
Avg. Extreme High Dev. — extreme (above-average) deviations of highs
Avg. Extreme Low Dev. — extreme (below-average) deviations of lows
The width of the channel automatically adapts to the selected MA period — the longer the period, the deeper the historical analysis.
Purpose and use cases
MA % Deviation Channel helps:
Evaluate volatility relative to the moving average
Identify overbought and oversold zones based on real price behavior
Filter breakouts and false impulses
Build trend-following and counter-trend strategies using statistical deviations
Advantages
Based on percentage deviation rather than fixed distances
Adaptive to changing market conditions
Supports 5 popular types of moving averages
Settings
MA Source — data source for the moving average
MA Type — moving average type (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA)
MA Length — smoothing period

HTF BIAS FILTER🧭HTF Bias Filter Indicator: 5 in 1 indicator
Technical Overview
The Bias Filter is a comprehensive multi-timeframe tool designed to confirm directional bias using five key indicators before entering a trade. It plots higher-timeframe Moving Averages directly on the chart and provides an immediate status summary via a static dashboard.
The more confluence on the dashboard, the greater the probability of the direction of the trade.
1. 📊 Display Components
A. Plotted Lines
The indicator uses the request.security function to draw Moving Averages from higher timeframes onto your current chart:
1H EMA 21 (Purple): The 21-period Exponential Moving Average calculated on the 1-Hour (60 min) chart. Plotted using a step-line style.
4H EMA 50 (Red): The 50-period Exponential Moving Average calculated on the 4-Hour (240 min) chart. Plotted using a step-line style.
B. Directional Dashboard
A fixed-position summary table is anchored to the bottom-right corner of the chart, providing a quick glance at the current status of all five filters.
2. 🎨 Colour Logic
Each of the five indicators is assigned a colour based on its current directional signal. The more indicators that show the same colour (confluence), the stronger the signal and the higher the likelihood of a high-probability trade.
🟢 Green indicators are signaling UP/BUY (Bullish momentum or trend).
🔴 Red indicators are signaling DOWN/SELL (Bearish momentum or trend).
⚫ Gray indicators are signaling Mixed or flat directions (neutral or undecided).
Note: The dashboard's main header color is determined by a strict confluence logic (All four 4H filters must align for Green/Red), while individual indicator colors follow the simple rules above.
3. 📋 Indicator Breakdown and Logic
The dashboard provides the direction of five different filters.
3.1. Higher-Timeframe (HTF) Trend Indicators
These two signals determine the immediate slope and direction of the primary Moving Averages:
4H EMA 50:
Timeframe: 4-Hour (240 min)
Logic: Compares the current EMA value to the value two bars ago on the 4H chart.
Output: UP ↑, DOWN ↓, or FLAT ⏸
1H EMA 21:
Timeframe: 1-Hour (60 min)
Logic: Compares the current EMA value to the value two bars ago on the 1H chart.
Output: UP ↑, DOWN ↓, or FLAT ⏸
3.2. 4-Hour Confluence Filters
These three indicators provide supplementary confirmation on Volume, Price Position, and Momentum, all calculated on the 4-Hour (240 min) chart:
4H OBV (Smoothed):
Timeframe: 4-Hour (240 min)
Logic: Direction is based on the current value of the 21-bar smoothed On-Balance Volume (OBV) compared to its value nine bars ago.
Output: UP ↑, DOWN ↓, or FLAT ⏸
4H ATR DIR (EMA Proxy):
Timeframe: 4-Hour (240 min)
Logic: Determines the price position by comparing the current Close price against the 4H EMA 50.
Output: BUY 🟢 (Close > EMA 50), SELL 🔴 (Close < EMA 50), or FLAT ⏸️ (Close = EMA 50).
4H RSI (14):
Timeframe: 4-Hour (240 min)
Logic: Momentum check comparing the 14-period Relative Strength Index (RSI) value against the 50 level.
Output: BUY 🟢 (RSI > 50), SELL 🔴 (RSI < 50), or FLAT ⏸️ (RSI = 50).
HybridWhales DAY TRADINGThis indicator offers a streamlined view of prevailing market trends on lower timeframes, empowering day traders to execute their strategies with greater precision
It incorporates two widely used exponential moving averages (EMAs)—the 50-period and 200-period—alongside an 800-period EMA, which effectively mirrors the 200-period EMA on the next higher timeframe. This setup provides enhanced flexibility, delivering multi-timeframe insights without the need to switch charts manually.
In addition, the indicator highlights essential intraday levels for quick reference:
Daily Open, denoted in yellow
Monday Highs, marked in red
Monday Lows, indicated in green
The indicator's core strength lies in its ability to detect market maker activity through color-coded candlesticks, based on volume analysis. Candles exhibiting significantly higher volume than the average of the prior eight candles are colored green (for bullish closes) or red (for bearish closes), signaling active market maker positioning—either entering shorts or longs.
Candles with moderately elevated volume (above average but not extreme) are shaded blue (bullish) or pink (bearish), suggesting market makers are accumulating short or long positions.
Interpretation is key: Red or pink candles (bearish) imply that market makers have initiated long positions, with price likely to revisit and fill these areas in the future. Conversely, green or blue candles (bullish) indicate market makers establishing shorts, anticipating a eventual pullback to these levels
To pinpoint the precise zones where price may return, the indicator places a white marker on each colored candle at its 50% retracement level, representing a fair value gap or imbalance.
Overall, this tool enables traders to spot market maker footprints, identify critical support and resistance zones, gauge weekly ranges, and assess potential momentum. While it fosters stronger confluence in analysis, results are not guaranteed and depend on individual trading execution.
Vital Wave 20-50Simplicity is almost always the most effective approach, and here I’m giving you a trend-following system that exploits the bullish bias of traditional markets and their trending nature, with very basic rules.
Rules (long entries only)
• Market entry: When the EMA 20 crosses above the EMA 50 (from below)
• Main market exit: When the EMA 20 crosses below the EMA 50 (from above)
• Fixed Stop Loss: Placed at the price level of the Lower Bollinger Band at the moment the trade is entered.
In my strategy, the primary exit is when the EMA 20 crosses below the EMA 50. However, this crossover can sometimes take a while to occur, and in the meantime the price may have already dropped significantly. The Stop Loss based on the Lower Bollinger Band is designed to limit losses in case the market moves sharply against the position without giving the bearish crossover signal in time. Having two exit conditions makes the strategy much more robust in terms of risk management.
Risk Management:
• Initial capital: $10,000
• Position size: 10% of available capital per trade
• Commissions: 0.1% on traded volume
• Stop Loss: Based on the Lower Bollinger Band
• Take Profit / Exit: When EMA 20 crosses below EMA 50

Important Note:
We can significantly increase the profit factor and overall profitability by risking a fixed percentage per trade instead of a fixed amount. This would prevent losses from fluctuating with changes in volatility.
This could be implemented by reducing position size or adjusting leverage based on the volatility percentage required for each trade, but I’m not sure if this is fully possible in Pine Script. In my other script, “ Golden Cross 50/200 EMA ,” I go deeper into this topic and provide examples.
I hope you enjoy this contribution. Best regards!

HTF EMA Ribbon Bias by HammerGeekThis indicator displays a higher-timeframe EMA-ribbon bias directly on any lower-timeframe chart. It uses four EMAs (5, 9, 13, 21) computed on the selected higher timeframe and detects the directional “stacking” of those EMAs to determine trend bias:
Bullish: EMAs are strictly stacked 5 > 9 > 13 > 21 (fully separated, no overlap)
Bearish: EMAs are strictly stacked 5 < 9 < 13 < 21
Neutral: Any overlap, crossing, or mixed order between the four EMAs
The indicator shades the background to show the bias: green for bullish, red for bearish, yellow for neutral. A built-in toggle lets you choose whether the bias should update live from the current higher-timeframe candle (faster, but may repaint) or only after the higher-timeframe candle closes (slower, but non-repainting).
Designed for traders who want clean, instantly readable higher-timeframe context—especially when working on lower-timeframe charts such as 30m, 15m, or 5m.
All settings can be modified to suit users' desires.
FortesThis script generates buy and sell alerts based on the crossover of two EMAs (9 and 21). When the 9 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA, it signals a buy; when it crosses below, it signals a sell. Simple and effective for EMA crossover trading.
Trinity Trend Direction ProThe Trinity Trend Pro is a no-nonsense trend filter indicator built around the classic 13 / 48 / 200 EMA stack, but massively upgraded with real intelligence. Instead of just drawing three lines and spamming crossovers like every other EMA script, it only speaks when a genuine, high-reward trend is actually happening. It combines three strict conditions that must all be true at the same time: perfect bullish or bearish EMA alignment, steep slope on all three EMAs (measured in degrees), and wide enough separation between the fast and slow EMA (normalized by ATR). If any of those fail, it stays silent. This eliminates almost all the fakeouts and chop that destroy most traders using regular EMA crossovers.
What makes it truly different is the built-in “trend exhaustion” logic: when the EMAs compress and start braiding (common after a big move), the indicator automatically switches to a neutral “FLAT” state and clears the previous signal instead of stubbornly staying green or red. It also supports an optional higher-timeframe EMA filter (you choose the timeframe and length) so you never fight the bigger trend. One clean arrow appears only when a brand-new strong trend begins, and it stays off the chart until the next real move — no arrow spam.
The background colors the entire chart lightly green or red while the trend is alive, and a compact dashboard in the corner tells you in plain English whether to be long, short, or flat.
How to use it is dead simple: add it to any chart (SPX, BTC, ES, Nasdaq, stocks, anything), look at the dashboard or background color, and only trade when it says “LONG ACTIVE” or “SHORT ACTIVE”. Green arrow + green background = go long (calls, futures, shares). Red arrow + red background = go short (puts or short). Anything else = stay out. Set the two built-in alerts (“NEW BULL TREND” and “NEW BEAR TREND”) and you’ll get notified the exact moment a fresh high-probability move starts. That’s literally all you need to do. No second-guessing, no overthinking, no getting chopped up in sideways markets. In our humble opinion it is one of the cleanest, smartest, most disciplined EMA-based tool on TradingView — designed for traders who are tired of noise and only want the real moves.

Stacked SpaghettiStacked Spaghetti - Stacked EMA Confirmation indicator (5, 9, 21) based on Tyler Goedtel's (TG Capital) Trading Model in conjunction with the Bollinger Bands. Creates a cleaner chart with easy to read colored dots when all 3 EMAs are stacked Bullish or Bearish. This creates a cleaner and easier to read "quick scan" as you change between time frames for bias. Dot colors are customizable.
MTF EMA Directional Bias -1hr and 4hr A compact, fixed-position table (bottom-right corner) that shows the current slope direction of two higher-timeframe EMAs:
4H EMA 50 → direction over the last 2 bars (UP ↑, DOWN ↓, or FLAT ⏸)
1H EMA 21 → direction over the last 2 bars (UP ↑, DOWN ↓, or FLAT ⏸)
Background color logic:
Green → both 4H and 1H EMAs are sloping upward
Red → both 4H and 1H EMAs are sloping downward
Gray → mixed or flat directions (no confluence)
Additionally draws the actual 1H EMA-21 (purple) and 4H EMA-50 (red) as step-lines on the chart.
20/50/200 EMA with RVOL Filter Hariss 369Understanding to trade with this indicator is very simple. 20 EMA acts as dynamic support and resistance. 50 EMA is best for intraday/short term trend filter and 200 EMA is best for long term trend filter. One should always trade with the trend. Combination of all threes entails safe trading with trend. Undoubtedly, volume plays vital role to move the price up or down. The volume indicator used here is Relative Volume (RVOL) rather simple volume. 1.5 RVOL is considered as strong trend to trade considering other factors intact. You can tick/untick RVOL and you can also change the level of RVOL from input section.
You can also change the color of EMAs and pattern of buy and sell signal. Place this indicator over the chart. You can choose any type of asset and any time frame.
Though buy and sell signals are there. The concept of trading is buy when price closes above 20 ema and 20 ema >50ema>200 ema. Place stop loss below the low of last candle or just below 20 ema. Target 1.5/2 times of stop loss. You can also trail it with 20 ema or 50 ema depending upon your trading style and risk appetite. You can also take positional trade, in that case 200 ema to be considered as stop loss. Sell when price closes below 20 ema, 20 ema<50ema<200 ema. For intraday trading, 20 ema is best to enter and exit. Taking RVOL into consideration is best way in order to trade with high liquidity-safer way to entry and exit.
Nexural JMAHere's a natural description for TradingView:
Nexural JMA - Jurik Moving Average with Multi-Factor Analysis
WHAT IT DOES
This is a Jurik Moving Average indicator that I've enhanced with multi-factor scoring to help you identify high-quality trade setups. JMA is known for being smoother and more responsive than traditional moving averages, which means less lag without the whipsaw you get from faster EMAs.
The indicator plots the JMA line on your chart with dynamic support and resistance zones, entry signals, and a real-time dashboard that scores market conditions from 0 to 100 across five key factors.
KEY FEATURES
Jurik Moving Average - A sophisticated moving average that adapts quickly to price changes while staying smooth. You can adjust the phase and power settings to control its responsiveness.
Dynamic Zones - Creates a cloud around the JMA based on ATR. Think of it as a buffer zone that shows where price typically bounces or breaks through.
Multi-Factor Scoring - Real-time scores for Momentum, Volume, Volatility, and Trend Strength. All metrics are normalized to 0-100 so you can quickly see what's strong and what's weak.
Strength-Based Gradient - The JMA line and cloud change opacity based on trend strength. Bright and solid means strong conviction, faded means weak or transitional.
Filtered Signals - Entry signals only appear when multiple factors align - price crosses the JMA, volume confirms, and trend strength is adequate.
HOW TO USE IT
The JMA Line - This is your trend filter. When the line is green and rising, look for long opportunities. When it's red and falling, look for shorts. The brighter the color, the stronger the trend.
The Cloud - Price typically bounces off the cloud edges in trends. When price breaks through the cloud against the trend, it often signals exhaustion or reversal.
Entry Signals - Green triangles below price are long signals. Red triangles above price are short signals. These only fire when volume, momentum, and trend strength are adequate.
The Dashboard - This is your market health monitor. Check it before taking a trade. You want to see high scores (70+) in momentum and trend strength for the best setups. Volume above 50 adds confirmation.
Volatility Score - High volatility (70+) means wider stops and bigger targets. Low volatility (below 30) means tighter ranges and smaller moves.
BEST PRACTICES
Use the dashboard to filter trades. If trend strength is below 40, the market is choppy and you're better off waiting for clarity.
Pay attention to the gradient intensity. A bright solid JMA line with a visible cloud means the trend has conviction. A faded line means the trend is weak or transitioning.
Volume matters. Signals with volume scores above 70 tend to have better follow-through than those with weak volume.
Don't force trades when momentum is low. Below 40 momentum score means the market is consolidating or drifting.
Use the cloud as a stop loss guide in trends. Price reclaiming the cloud against the trend is often your signal to exit or tighten stops.
UNDERSTANDING THE SCORES
Momentum Score - Measures the rate of change over 10 bars compared to recent history. High scores mean price is moving decisively.
Volume Score - Compares current volume to the last 100 bars. Above 70 means volume is strong, below 30 means it's weak.
Volatility Score - Based on ATR percentile. High scores mean the market is moving with larger swings, low scores mean it's quiet.
Trend Strength - Combines how far price is from the JMA plus the slope of the JMA itself. This is your conviction meter.
SETTINGS BREAKDOWN
JMA Length - Default is 7, which is quite responsive. Increase to 14 or 21 for smoother trends on higher timeframes. Lower to 5 for faster response on scalping timeframes.
Phase - Default is 50 which is balanced. Higher values (70-100) make it more responsive but can increase whipsaws. Lower values (0-30) make it smoother but add lag.
Power - Controls the JMA curve calculation. Default is 2 which works well. Higher values make it more responsive at the cost of smoothness.
Source - Default is close, but you can experiment with hlc3 or ohlc4 for different characteristics.
PROS
Clean visual presentation - The gradient system makes trend strength obvious at a glance.
No guesswork on market conditions - The scored dashboard tells you exactly what's working and what's not.
Filtered signals - Unlike basic moving average crosses, these signals require multiple confirmations.
Adaptable - Works on stocks, crypto, forex, and futures. Just adjust the length for your timeframe.
Low lag - JMA responds faster than SMA or EMA of the same length, so you get earlier entries.
CONS
JMA can be sensitive - On the default settings, you might see some false signals in choppy markets. Consider increasing the length if this happens.
Requires interpretation - The dashboard gives you data, but you still need to make the trading decision. It's not a one-click solution.
Works best in trends - Like most moving average systems, it struggles in tight sideways ranges. Low trend strength scores will warn you when this is happening.
Not ideal for very fast scalping - The default length of 7 works for 5-minute and above, but for 1-minute scalping, you might need to drop it to 3-5 and accept more noise.
Volume data quality matters - On some assets or timeframes, volume data is unreliable or unavailable. The volume score will be less useful in those cases.
TIPS FROM MY TESTING
The indicator works best on the 5-minute to daily timeframes. I've had the most success on 15-minute and 1-hour charts.
When all scores are above 60, you're in prime trading conditions. These are your A+ setups.
Use it with support and resistance. When a signal fires at a key level with high trend strength, the probability increases significantly.
The cloud is your friend in trends. In strong trends, price will use the cloud edges as support or resistance for continuation entries.
Don't ignore weak signals in strong trends. Sometimes a low momentum score during a pullback in a strong trend is your best re-entry point.
Watch for divergence between price and the JMA. If price makes a new high but the JMA is fading in color and trend strength is dropping, that's often a warning sign.
ALERT SYSTEM
The alerts include the trend strength score in the message, so you know immediately if it's a high-conviction signal or a marginal one. Set your alerts to "once per bar close" to avoid repainting.
COMBINING WITH OTHER TOOLS
This works great with RSI or stochastic for timing entries. Use the JMA for trend direction and zones for context, then use an oscillator to time the exact entry.
It pairs well with volume profile. The JMA shows you the trend, volume profile shows you where the battle is happening.
Consider using a higher timeframe JMA for bias and a lower timeframe for entries. If the 1-hour JMA is bullish with 80 trend strength, look for long entries on the 15-minute chart.
This indicator is designed to give you clarity in a noisy market. The JMA itself is a powerful tool, but adding the multi-factor scoring system helps you understand the quality of what you're seeing. It's not magic, but it's been helpful for filtering out the junk and focusing on the setups with the best probability.
As always, backtest it on your markets and timeframes. Adjust the settings to fit your trading style. What works for one person might not work for another, so make it your own.
Good luck and trade safe.

This indicator is directly inspired from the Zombie9Trail by Frosty (creator of the Zombie Pack and TickHunter for NinjaTrader).
When all filters are turned off, Tripwire replicates the core behavior of Zombie9Trail — delivering the same razor-sharp trailing logic.
Most of Frosty's testing has been done from the 1 minute time frame, while I have personally found for my style of trading the 5 minute time frame works better for me.
WHAT THIS VERSION ADDS — TradingView Enhancements
• Optional multi-layer trend filters (21, 34, 170 EMA) to separate high-probability pullbacks from actual trend changes
• Clean Buy/Sell/Pullback signal labels with alert conditions
• Real-time dashboard showing current trail value, trend state, and filter status
• Fully customizable ATR length, multiplier, source, and visual styling
• All values exported as plots — perfect for CSV download and strategy development
HOW TO USE
Filters ON (recommended for trend-following) → Take signals in the direction of the higher-timeframe trend. Great for staying in strong moves and avoiding fake outs.
Filters OFF (pure Zombie9Trail mode) → Possibly catch early reversals and ride new trends
CREDIT & RESPECT
Core trailing methodology and original genius: Frosty — creator of Zombie9Trail / Zombie Pack / TickHunter (NinjaTrader).
This TradingView adaptation was built in direct homage to his NinjaTrader work and with his encouragement. Everything beyond the base trailing logic (filters, dashboard, alerts, exportable plots, visual polish) is original.

CTA Flow Replicator [Institutional Speeds]Decoding the Black Box: Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs) control hundreds of billions of dollars in systematic capital. Their buying and selling are not based on news or fundamentals, but on trend signals. This guide allows you to replicate those signals. By monitoring three specific 'Trend Speeds' (20, 50, and 120-day averages) and key volatility filters, you can visualize exactly where institutional algorithms are likely to buy the dip or force a sell-off.
This script automatically plots the "Three Speeds" (20, 50, 120), color-codes the background based on the "Zone" you are in (Max Long vs. Danger), and flags High Volatility regimes using VIX data.
How to Read the Indicator on Your Chart:
Green Line (20 SMA): The "Gas Pedal." If we are above this, CTAs are pressing longs.
Orange Line (50 SMA): The "Brake." If we break this, the selling starts.
Red Line (120 SMA): The "Floor." Watch for bounces here.
Background Colors:
Green Zone: Safe to hold/buy dips.
Yellow Zone: Trimming/Cash. Be careful.
Red Zone: Short/Hedging only.
Grey Zone: High Volatility (VIX > 20). Even if the trend is up, the background turns grey to warn you that "Risk is High" and position sizing should be smaller.
200SMA Distance OscillatorThe oscillator measures the percentage deviation of closing price x from SMA200.
The idea behind the oscillator was preceded by an analysis of how often MAs in the index hold/bounce or are broken through.
Basically, the idea was about index analysis, i.e., the macro picture of a market.
Who wants to buy individual stocks when the overall market is plummeting ;-)
Or in other words: How long are you long in a market? When is it time to take profits?
After the analysis of the stability of SMAs in the index was rather modest (ratio of just under 6:4 for bounce to breakout – overall in 20, 50, 100, and 200 frames from 2020 to 2025), it was noticeable that the percentage over- or underperformance was scalable, especially in indices.
And since indices generally move upwards, there were fixed limits for over- and underestimations – especially in the longer term (SMA200) – unlike with individual stocks.
It is therefore more a question of macro trends and less of short-term movements, e.g., in day trading.
It was now interesting to see at what percentage range counter-movements were likely – particularly in the positive range for profit-taking, but of course also in the negative range for entry into sold-off markets.
If, for example, closing prices around +25% above SMA200 were reached in the NDX, the probability is very high that the market has overreacted and an interim correction will follow – so the theory goes.
On the other hand, continuous levels of +5 to +10% are a product of healthy positive development in a bull market and do not necessarily require action.
The oscillator was specifically designed for the NDX, but can also be used for the SPX and others.
The style was based on the RSI, so that the color level rises from 10% to 20% (overbought/oversold principle).
Based on manually examined movements, the criteria were set as follows:
+/-10% = flow / no color background
> +/-10% = border areas / color background
The center line represents the 252 average of the percentage deviations and could also be used as a trigger, provided it has been historically examined and is valid.
The oscillator is very interesting because it behaves completely differently from one financial instrument to another and, as a result, also in the timeframes (4h, D, W).
It would probably make sense to change the flow and border levels in the code when using it outside of indices.
The fact is that the oscillator must be “adjusted” to each instrument in order to achieve its goal of providing the best possible prediction. “Adjusting” refers to the analysis of the levels at which an instrument/asset usually reacts.
As with all indicators and oscillators, it is advisable to take other indicators and, in particular, macro news into account when analyzing this development.
If I find any substantial correlations with other indicators, I will be happy to provide an update.
The idea came from me, the code from Grok.
The code is not 100% perfect, but the data (percentage deviation, color background) is correct according to initial analysis.
In the settings, you can make the lines of the plots invisible. This makes the oscillator clearer. You can also adjust the settings for the average line.
DeltaATR + VWAP DIF + MA'sI attempted to create an indicator using a different approach to analyzing potential trend reversals, and although it is still a work in progress, it is already fully functional. The indicator combines the price relative to VWAP with ATR normalization, providing a way to measure deviations in terms of market volatility.
How the indicator works:
Delta Calculation:
The core of the indicator calculates the difference between the current price and the VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price), then normalizes this difference by the ATR (Average True Range). This provides a volatility-adjusted measure of how far the price has moved relative to its typical range.
Histogram Visualization:
The deltaATR is displayed as a histogram, where positive values indicate the price is above VWAP and negative values indicate it is below. The histogram is color-coded for easy interpretation: typically red for above VWAP and green for below, with configurable transparency.
Dual Moving Averages:
Two moving averages (fast and slow) are applied to the deltaATR. This creates a crossover system:
When the fast average crosses above the slow average, it may indicate an upcoming bullish reversal.
When the fast average crosses below the slow average, it may indicate a potential bearish reversal.
Zero Line Reference:
A reference line at zero corresponds to VWAP, helping traders see whether price is generally above or below the average volume-weighted level.
Alert Lines (Optional Panel):
A second panel provides four configurable alert lines, allowing users to set key thresholds to monitor extreme deltaATR values. These lines are thin, dashed, and fully customizable in terms of color and thickness.
Panel for Values and Signals:
The indicator includes a side panel showing:
Current deltaATR
Fast and slow averages
Current trend signal (Bullish, Bearish, or Neutral)
How it can be used:
Identify potential trend reversals by monitoring the crossover between the fast and slow averages of deltaATR.
Use the histogram to observe when the price is deviating significantly from VWAP in terms of ATR.
Set alert lines for specific thresholds to highlight overextended conditions or significant volatility moves.
Combine with other technical indicators for confirmation before entering or exiting trades.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to anticipate reversals in volatile markets, as it adapts the delta measure to the current market conditions using ATR normalization, making it more responsive and robust than raw price deviations alone.
SELL TOP
Short TradingView Description
This indicator identifies potential exhaustion points in upward trends by combining multiple technical components into one weighted signal.
It evaluates price behavior, volatility structure, momentum shifts, volume pressure, and candle characteristics.
A SELL alert is triggered only when several conditions align and exceed a predefined threshold.
The indicator uses three core technical tools:
* **RSI** – to measure strength and potential overextension
* **MACD** – to confirm momentum weakness
* **Bollinger Bands (BB)** – to assess volatility and price deviation
Each signal is clearly marked on the chart, including a visual stop-level above the signal candle.
This tool does not execute trades or guarantee results; it serves as an analytical assistant to highlight areas where bullish momentum may be weakening.
Sensitivity and behavior can be adjusted through the indicator’s settings.
9/21 EMA Trend TOP rIGHT CORNER INDICATORCrossover indicator for the 9 & 21 EMA. Buy Sell for cross up or down respectively. Daily, weekly and Monthly trend.
⚡ VWAP (Recent Segment Only)VWAP, RECENT segment on a horizontal line, so it does not break or squueze the chart like traditional VWAP
find it very useful visually, it does not clutter the chart like traditional VWAP. it will not make the chart messy. clean usefull most recent VWAP line.
Enjoy!
