Crypto Options Greeks & Volatility Analyzer [BackQuant]Crypto Options Greeks & Volatility Analyzer
Overview
The Crypto Options Greeks & Volatility Analyzer is a comprehensive analytical tool that calculates Black-Scholes option Greeks up to the third order for Bitcoin and Ethereum options. It integrates implied volatility data from VOLMEX indices and provides multiple visualization layers for options risk analysis.
Quick Introduction to Options Trading
Options are financial derivatives that give the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price (strike price) within a specific time period (expiration date). Understanding options requires grasping two fundamental concepts:
Call Options : Give the right to buy the underlying asset at the strike price. Calls increase in value when the underlying price rises above the strike price.
Put Options : Give the right to sell the underlying asset at the strike price. Puts increase in value when the underlying price falls below the strike price.
The Language of Options: Greeks
Options traders use "Greeks" - mathematical measures that describe how an option's price changes in response to various factors:
Delta : How much the option price moves for each $1 change in the underlying
Gamma : How fast delta changes as the underlying moves
Theta : Daily time decay - how much value erodes each day
Vega : Sensitivity to implied volatility changes
Rho : Sensitivity to interest rate changes
These Greeks are essential for understanding risk. Just as a pilot needs instruments to fly safely, options traders need Greeks to navigate market conditions and manage positions effectively.
Why Volatility Matters
Implied volatility (IV) represents the market's expectation of future price movement. High IV means:
Options are more expensive (higher premiums)
Market expects larger price swings
Better for option sellers
Low IV means:
Options are cheaper
Market expects smaller moves
Better for option buyers
This indicator helps you visualize and quantify these critical concepts in real-time.

Key Features & Components
1. Complete Greeks Calculations
The indicator computes all standard Greeks using the Black-Scholes-Merton model adapted for cryptocurrency markets:
First Order Greeks:
Delta (Δ) : Measures the rate of change of option price with respect to underlying price movement. Ranges from 0 to 1 for calls and -1 to 0 for puts.
Vega (ν) : Sensitivity to implied volatility changes, expressed as price change per 1% change in IV.
Theta (Θ) : Time decay measured in dollars per day, showing how much value erodes with each passing day.
Rho (ρ) : Interest rate sensitivity, measuring price change per 1% change in risk-free rate.
Second Order Greeks:
Gamma (Γ) : Rate of change of delta with respect to underlying price, indicating how quickly delta will change.
Vanna : Cross-derivative measuring delta's sensitivity to volatility changes and vega's sensitivity to price changes.
Charm : Delta decay over time, showing how delta changes as expiration approaches.
Vomma (Volga) : Vega's sensitivity to volatility changes, important for volatility trading strategies.
Third Order Greeks:
Speed : Rate of change of gamma with respect to underlying price (∂Γ/∂S).
Zomma : Gamma's sensitivity to volatility changes (∂Γ/∂σ).
Color : Gamma decay over time (∂Γ/∂T).
Ultima : Third-order volatility sensitivity (∂²ν/∂σ²).
2. Implied Volatility Analysis
The indicator includes a sophisticated IV ranking system that analyzes current implied volatility relative to its recent history:
IV Rank : Percentile ranking of current IV within its 30-day range (0-100%)
IV Percentile : Percentage of days in the lookback period where IV was lower than current
IV Regime Classification : Very Low, Low, High, or Very High
Color-Coded Headers : Visual indication of volatility regime in the Greeks table
Trading regime suggestions based on IV rank:
IV Rank > 75%: "Favor selling options" (high premium environment)
IV Rank 50-75%: "Neutral / Sell spreads"
IV Rank 25-50%: "Neutral / Buy spreads"
IV Rank < 25%: "Favor buying options" (low premium environment)
3. Gamma Zones Visualization
Gamma zones display horizontal price levels where gamma exposure is highest:
Purple horizontal lines indicate gamma concentration areas
Opacity scaling : Darker shading represents higher gamma values
Percentage labels : Shows gamma intensity relative to ATM gamma
Customizable zones : 3-10 price levels can be analyzed
These zones are critical for understanding:
Pin risk around expiration
Potential for explosive price movements
Optimal strike selection for gamma trading
Market maker hedging flows
4. Probability Cones (Expected Move)
The probability cones project expected price ranges based on current implied volatility:
1 Standard Deviation (68% probability) : Shown with dashed green/red lines
2 Standard Deviations (95% probability) : Shown with dotted green/red lines
Time-scaled projection : Cones widen as expiration approaches
Lognormal distribution : Accounts for positive skew in asset prices
Applications:
Strike selection for credit spreads
Identifying high-probability profit zones
Setting realistic price targets
Risk management for undefined risk strategies
5. Breakeven Analysis
The indicator plots key price levels for options positions:
White line : Strike price
Green line : Call breakeven (Strike + Premium)
Red line : Put breakeven (Strike - Premium)
These levels update dynamically as option premiums change with market conditions.
6. Payoff Structure Visualization
Optional P&L labels display profit/loss at expiration for various price levels:
Shows P&L at -2 sigma, -1 sigma, ATM, +1 sigma, and +2 sigma price levels
Separate calculations for calls and puts
Helps visualize option payoff diagrams directly on the chart

MERV: Market Entropy & Rhythm Visualizer [BullByte]The MERV (Market Entropy & Rhythm Visualizer) indicator analyzes market conditions by measuring entropy (randomness vs. trend), tradeability (volatility/momentum), and cyclical rhythm. It provides traders with an easy-to-read dashboard and oscillator to understand when markets are structured or choppy, and when trading conditions are optimal.
Purpose of the Indicator
MERV’s goal is to help traders identify different market regimes. It quantifies how structured or random recent price action is (entropy), how strong and volatile the movement is (tradeability), and whether a repeating cycle exists. By visualizing these together, MERV highlights trending vs. choppy environments and flags when conditions are favorable for entering trades. For example, a low entropy value means prices are following a clear trend line, whereas high entropy indicates a lot of noise or sideways action. The indicator’s combination of measures is original: it fuses statistical trend-fit (entropy), volatility trends (ATR and slope), and cycle analysis to give a comprehensive view of market behavior.
Why a Trader Should Use It
Traders often need to know when a market trend is reliable vs. when it is just noise. MERV helps in several ways: it shows when the market has a strong direction (low entropy, high tradeability) and when it’s ranging (high entropy). This can prevent entering trend-following strategies during choppy periods, or help catch breakouts early. The “Optimal Regime” marker (a star) highlights moments when entropy is very low and tradeability is very high, typically the best conditions for trend trades. By using MERV, a trader gains an empirical “go/no-go” signal based on price history, rather than guessing from price alone. It’s also adaptable: you can apply it to stocks, forex, crypto, etc., on any timeframe. For example, during a bullish phase of a stock, MERV will turn green (Trending Mode) and often show a star, signaling good follow-through. If the market later grinds sideways, MERV will shift to magenta (Choppy Mode), warning you that trend-following is now risky.
Why These Components Were Chosen
Market Entropy (via R²) : This measures how well recent prices fit a straight line. We compute a linear regression on the last len_entropy bars and calculate R². Entropy = 1 - R², so entropy is low when prices follow a trend (R² near 1) and high when price action is erratic (R² near 0). This single number captures trend strength vs noise.
Tradeability (ATR + Slope) : We combine two familiar measures: the Average True Range (ATR) (normalized by price) and the absolute slope of the regression line (scaled by ATR). Together they reflect how active and directional the market is. A high ATR or strong slope means big moves, making a trend more “tradeable.” We take a simple average of the normalized ATR and slope to get tradeability_raw. Then we convert it to a percentile rank over the lookback window so it’s stable between 0 and 1.
Percentile Ranks : To make entropy and tradeability values easy to interpret, we convert each to a 0–100 rank based on the past len_entropy periods. This turns raw metrics into a consistent scale. (For example, an entropy rank of 90 means current entropy is higher than 90% of recent values.) We then divide by 100 to plot them on a 0–1 scale.
Market Mode (Regime) : Based on those ranks, MERV classifies the market:
Trending (Green) : Low entropy rank (<40%) and high tradeability rank (>60%). This means the market is structurally trending with high activity.
Choppy (Magenta) : High entropy rank (>60%) and low tradeability rank (<40%). This is a mostly random, low-momentum market.
Neutral (Cyan) : All other cases. This covers mixed regimes not strongly trending or choppy.
The mode is shown as a colored bar at the bottom: green for trending, magenta for choppy, cyan for neutral.
Optimal Regime Signal : Separately, we mark an “optimal” condition when entropy_norm < 0.3 and tradeability > 0.7 (both normalized 0–1). When this is true, a ★ star appears on the bottom line. This star is colored white when truly optimal, gold when only tradeability is high (but entropy not quite low enough), and black when neither condition holds. This gives a quick visual cue for very favorable conditions.
What Makes MERV Stand Out
Holistic View : Unlike a single-oscillator, MERV combines trend, volatility, and cycle analysis in one tool. This multi-faceted approach is unique.
Visual Dashboard : The fixed on-chart dashboard (shown at your chosen corner) summarizes all metrics in bar/gauge form. Even a non-technical user can glance at it: more “█” blocks = a higher value, colors match the plots. This is more intuitive than raw numbers.
Adaptive Thresholds : Using percentile ranks means MERV auto-adjusts to each market’s character, rather than requiring fixed thresholds.
Cycle Insight : The rhythm plot adds information rarely found in indicators – it shows if there’s a repeating cycle (and its period in bars) and how strong it is. This can hint at natural bounce or reversal intervals.
Modern Look : The neon color scheme and glow effects make the lines easy to distinguish (blue/pink for entropy, green/orange for tradeability, etc.) and the filled area between them highlights when one dominates the other.
Recommended Timeframes
MERV can be applied to any timeframe, but it will be more reliable on higher timeframes. The default len_entropy = 50 and len_rhythm = 30 mean we use 30–50 bars of history, so on a daily chart that’s ~2–3 months of data; on a 1-hour chart it’s about 2–3 days. In practice:
Swing/Position traders might prefer Daily or 4H charts, where the calculations smooth out small noise. Entropy and cycles are more meaningful on longer trends.
Day trader s could use 15m or 1H charts if they adjust the inputs (e.g. shorter windows). This provides more sensitivity to intraday cycles.
Scalpers might find MERV too “slow” unless input lengths are set very low.
In summary, the indicator works anywhere, but the defaults are tuned for capturing medium-term trends. Users can adjust len_entropy and len_rhythm to match their chart’s volatility. The dashboard position can also be moved (top-left, bottom-right, etc.) so it doesn’t cover important chart areas.
How the Scoring/Logic Works (Step-by-Step)
Compute Entropy : A linear regression line is fit to the last len_entropy closes. We compute R² (goodness of fit). Entropy = 1 – R². So a strong straight-line trend gives low entropy; a flat/noisy set of points gives high entropy.
Compute Tradeability : We get ATR over len_entropy bars, normalize it by price (so it’s a fraction of price). We also calculate the regression slope (difference between the predicted close and last close). We scale |slope| by ATR to get a dimensionless measure. We average these (ATR% and slope%) to get tradeability_raw. This represents how big and directional price moves are.
Convert to Percentiles : Each new entropy and tradeability value is inserted into a rolling array of the last 50 values. We then compute the percentile rank of the current value in that array (0–100%) using a simple loop. This tells us where the current bar stands relative to history. We then divide by 100 to plot on .
Determine Modes and Signal : Based on these normalized metrics: if entropy < 0.4 and tradeability > 0.6 (40% and 60% thresholds), we set mode = Trending (1). If entropy > 0.6 and tradeability < 0.4, mode = Choppy (-1). Otherwise mode = Neutral (0). Separately, if entropy_norm < 0.3 and tradeability > 0.7, we set an optimal flag. These conditions trigger the colored mode bars and the star line.
Rhythm Detection : Every bar, if we have enough data, we take the last len_rhythm closes and compute the mean and standard deviation. Then for lags from 5 up to len_rhythm, we calculate a normalized autocorrelation coefficient. We track the lag that gives the maximum correlation (best match). This “best lag” divided by len_rhythm is plotted (a value between 0 and 1). Its color changes with the correlation strength. We also smooth the best correlation value over 5 bars to plot as “Cycle Strength” (also 0 to 1). This shows if there is a consistent cycle length in recent price action.
Heatmap (Optional) : The background color behind the oscillator panel can change with entropy. If “Neon Rainbow” style is on, low entropy is blue and high entropy is pink (via a custom color function), otherwise a classic green-to-red gradient can be used. This visually reinforces the entropy value.
Volume Regime (Dashboard Only) : We compute vol_norm = volume / sma(volume, len_entropy). If this is above 1.5, it’s considered high volume (neon orange); below 0.7 is low (blue); otherwise normal (green). The dashboard shows this as a bar gauge and percentage. This is for context only.
Oscillator Plot – How to Read It
The main panel (oscillator) has multiple colored lines on a 0–1 vertical scale, with horizontal markers at 0.2 (Low), 0.5 (Mid), and 0.8 (High). Here’s each element:
Entropy Line (Blue→Pink) : This line (and its glow) shows normalized entropy (0 = very low, 1 = very high). It is blue/green when entropy is low (strong trend) and pink/purple when entropy is high (choppy). A value near 0.0 (below 0.2 line) indicates a very well-defined trend. A value near 1.0 (above 0.8 line) means the market is very random. Watch for it dipping near 0: that suggests a strong trend has formed.
Tradeability Line (Green→Yellow) : This represents normalized tradeability. It is colored bright green when tradeability is low, transitioning to yellow as tradeability increases. Higher values (approaching 1) mean big moves and strong slopes. Typically in a market rally or crash, this line will rise. A crossing above ~0.7 often coincides with good trend strength.
Filled Area (Orange Shade) : The orange-ish fill between the entropy and tradeability lines highlights when one dominates the other. If the area is large, the two metrics diverge; if small, they are similar. This is mostly aesthetic but can catch the eye when the lines cross over or remain close.
Rhythm (Cycle) Line : This is plotted as (best_lag / len_rhythm). It indicates the relative period of the strongest cycle. For example, a value of 0.5 means the strongest cycle was about half the window length. The line’s color (green, orange, or pink) reflects how strong that cycle is (green = strong). If no clear cycle is found, this line may be flat or near zero.
Cycle Strength Line : Plotted on the same scale, this shows the autocorrelation strength (0–1). A high value (e.g. above 0.7, shown in green) means the cycle is very pronounced. Low values (pink) mean any cycle is weak and unreliable.
Mode Bars (Bottom) : Below the main oscillator, thick colored bars appear: a green bar means Trending Mode, magenta means Choppy Mode, and cyan means Neutral. These bars all have a fixed height (–0.1) and make it very easy to see the current regime.
Optimal Regime Line (Bottom) : Just below the mode bars is a thick horizontal line at –0.18. Its color indicates regime quality: White (★) means “Optimal Regime” (very low entropy and high tradeability). Gold (★) means not quite optimal (high tradeability but entropy not low enough). Black means neither condition. This star line quickly tells you when conditions are ideal (white star) or simply good (gold star).
Horizontal Guides : The dotted lines at 0.2 (Low), 0.5 (Mid), and 0.8 (High) serve as reference lines. For example, an entropy or tradeability reading above 0.8 is “High,” and below 0.2 is “Low,” as labeled on the chart. These help you gauge values at a glance.
Dashboard (Fixed Corner Panel)
MERV also includes a compact table (dashboard) that can be positioned in any corner. It summarizes key values each bar. Here is how to read its rows:
Entropy : Shows a bar of blocks (█ and ░). More █ blocks = higher entropy. It also gives a percentage (rounded). A full bar (10 blocks) with a high % means very chaotic market. The text is colored similarly (blue-green for low, pink for high).
Rhythm : Shows the best cycle period in bars (e.g. “15 bars”). If no calculation yet, it shows “n/a.” The text color matches the rhythm line.
Cycle Strength : Gives the cycle correlation as a percentage (smoothed, as shown on chart). Higher % (green) means a strong cycle.
Tradeability : Displays a 10-block gauge for tradeability. More blocks = more tradeable market. It also shows “gauge” text colored green→yellow accordingly.
Market Mode : Simply shows “Trending”, “Choppy”, or “Neutral” (cyan text) to match the mode bar color.
Volume Regime : Similar to tradeability, shows blocks for current volume vs. average. Above-average volume gives orange blocks, below-average gives blue blocks. A % value indicates current volume relative to average. This row helps see if volume is abnormally high or low.
Optimal Status (Large Row) : In bold, either “★ Optimal Regime” (white text) if the star condition is met, “★ High Tradeability” (gold text) if tradeability alone is high, or “— Not Optimal” (gray text) otherwise. This large row catches your eye when conditions are ripe.
In short, the dashboard turns the numeric state into an easy read: filled bars, colors, and text let you see current conditions without reading the plot. For instance, five blue blocks under Entropy and “25%” tells you entropy is low (good), and a row showing “Trending” in green confirms a trend state.
Real-Life Example
Example : Consider a daily chart of a trending stock (e.g. “AAPL, 1D”). During a strong uptrend, recent prices fit a clear upward line, so Entropy would be low (blue line near bottom, perhaps below the 0.2 line). Volatility and slope are high, so Tradeability is high (green-yellow line near top). In the dashboard, Entropy might show only 1–2 blocks (e.g. 10%) and Tradeability nearly full (e.g. 90%). The Market Mode bar turns green (Trending), and you might see a white ★ on the optimal line if conditions are very good. The Volume row might light orange if volume is above average during the rally. In contrast, imagine the same stock later in a tight range: Entropy will rise (pink line up, more blocks in dashboard), Tradeability falls (fewer blocks), and the Mode bar turns magenta (Choppy). No star appears in that case.
Consolidated Use Case : Suppose on XYZ stock the dashboard reads “Entropy: █░░░░░░░░ 20%”, “Tradeability: ██████████ 80%”, Mode = Trending (green), and “★ Optimal Regime.” This tells the trader that the market is in a strong, low-noise trend, and it might be a good time to follow the trend (with appropriate risk controls). If instead it reads “Entropy: ████████░░ 80%”, “Tradeability: ███▒▒▒▒▒▒ 30%”, Mode = Choppy (magenta), the trader knows the market is random and low-momentum—likely best to sit out until conditions improve.
Example: How It Looks in Action
Screenshot 1: Trending Market with High Tradeability (SOLUSD, 30m)
What it means:
The market is in a clear, strong trend with excellent conditions for trading. Both trend-following and active strategies are favored, supported by high tradeability and strong volume.
Screenshot 2: Optimal Regime, Strong Trend (ETHUSD, 1h)
What it means:
This is an ideal environment for trend trading. The market is highly organized, tradeability is excellent, and volume supports the move. This is when the indicator signals the highest probability for success.
Screenshot 3: Choppy Market with High Volume (BTC Perpetual, 5m)
What it means:
The market is highly random and choppy, despite a surge in volume. This is a high-risk, low-reward environment, avoid trend strategies, and be cautious even with mean-reversion or scalping.
Settings and Inputs
The script is fully open-source; here are key inputs the user can adjust:
Entropy Window (len_entropy) : Number of bars used for entropy and tradeability (default 50). Larger = smoother, more lag; smaller = more sensitivity.
Rhythm Window (len_rhythm ): Bars used for cycle detection (default 30). This limits the longest cycle we detect.
Dashboard Position : Choose any corner (Top Right default) so it doesn’t cover chart action.
Show Heatmap : Toggles the entropy background coloring on/off.
Heatmap Style : “Neon Rainbow” (colorful) or “Classic” (green→red).
Show Mode Bar : Turn the bottom mode bar on/off.
Show Dashboard : Turn the fixed table panel on/off.
Each setting has a tooltip explaining its effect. In the description we will mention typical settings (e.g. default window sizes) and that the user can move the dashboard corner as desired.
Oscillator Interpretation (Recap)
Lines : Blue/Pink = Entropy (low=trend, high=chop); Green/Yellow = Tradeability (low=quiet, high=volatile).
Fill : Orange tinted area between them (for visual emphasis).
Bars : Green=Trending, Magenta=Choppy, Cyan=Neutral (at bottom).
Star Line : White star = ideal conditions, Gold = good but not ideal.
Horizontal Guides : 0.2 and 0.8 lines mark low/high thresholds for each metric.
Using the chart, a coder or trader can see exactly what each output represents and make decisions accordingly.

Volume Z-Score [T2][T69]🧠 Overview
This indicator calculates the Z-Score of volume to identify unusual trading activity, particularly those associated with whale-like behavior. It helps traders detect aggressive accumulation, distribution, or breakout setups based on volume anomalies relative to historical norms.
🔍 Features
Z-Score plot of volume using a configurable lookback.
Dynamic bar coloring based on Z-Score magnitude.
🐋 Small Whale marker appears when Z-Score exceeds +3.
Supports manual adjustment of sensitivity through lookback bars input.
🧪 Risk Level & Behavior Reference
🔥 Aggressive (10–14) - Fast signal, high sensitivity to volume spikes. Suitable for scalping or altcoin breakouts.
⚖️ Moderate (20–30) - Balanced filtering of noise vs real movement. Recommended for most swing traders.
🛡️ Conservative (40–60+) - Filters out noise. Reacts only to sustained large volume anomalies. Ideal for longer timeframes or large-cap coins.
⚙️ How to Use (NON DIRECTIONAL INDICATOR)
Use the Z-Score to gauge the strength of volume relative to recent history.
When Z-Score > 1.5 → Considered above-average activity.
When Z-Score > 3 → Marks a 🐋 Small Whale Move, potential for high-volatility follow-through.
Combine with price action, support/resistance, or OBV for confirmation.
⚠️ Limitations
This is a statistical signal, not directional.
Works best when paired with context: supply zones, trend bias, or large candle patterns.
🧠 Advanced Tips
Use multiple risk settings (e.g., 14 vs 50) on stacked indicators to track retail vs whale behavior separately.
Works well with low-float tokens and high-leverage exchange pairs like BTC/USDT (Bybit).

Price discovery indicatorGives an ability to show places where price drops more than n percent in x candles. Use cases: see dips of btc, get a notification when a stablecoin goes crazy, validate that webhook integration works as expected using keep alive messages.
Features included:
- Price dip alerts. Create an alert that sends a notification every time price dips more than expected (yellow zone at the chart).
- Percentage drop threshold. Define how many percents price should drop to trigger an alert and to show a yellow zone.
- Candles length threshold. Define within how many candles this drop should happen. If price drops in 2% within 10 candles, but this option is 5 - the alert will not be triggered because price dropped not as fast as expected.
- Templates of messages on price dip and price recovery. Set your message that should be triggered with alert.
- Keep alive feature. Set to trigger keep alive alerts every period. Can be helpful if you don't check charts often - this feature will trigger alert every period with "hey, the integration is alive" message. I use it to validate on weekly basis that tradingview triggers my alerts (example: you created an alert with expiration date and forgot to recreate it), that webhook integration receives these alerts, that the integration sends these alerts to telegram. Example: I expect to see this message every monday's morning, otherwise something is broken and I have to check what is wrong with my alerting system.

Big Trade % Heatmap### Big Trade % Heatmap
**Quick overview**
This indicator highlights where “whale” activity is clustered by showing what fraction of the recent candles contained *large‑value trades*. A candle is considered “big” when its notional volume (`volume × close`) exceeds your chosen USD threshold. You instantly see:
* **Percent of big candles** in the last *N* bars, refreshed at the cadence you pick.
* **On‑chart labels & markers** every refresh, so the chart stays clean.
* **Optional heat‑map background** that turns orange (>20 %) or green (>50 %) when big‑trade concentration spikes.
* **Ready‑made alert** when big‑trade dominance crosses 50 %.
---
#### How it works
1. **Trade size per candle** – Calculates `close × volume` to estimate dollars traded.
2. **Threshold filter** – Flags candles whose value is above *Big Trade Threshold (\$)*.
3. **Look‑back window** – Counts what percentage of the last *Lookback Window (X Candles)* were “big.”
4. **Refresh interval** – Repeats the measurement only every *Refresh Interval (Every X Candles)* to avoid label spam.
5. **Visuals** –
* A small blue ▼ above the bar + a text label such as `35.00 % > $25 000`.
* Background shading (green/orange) for quick, at‑a‑glance sentiment.
---
#### Inputs
| Input | Purpose | Default |
| -------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | ------- |
| **Lookback Window (X Candles)** | How many recent bars to sample for the % calculation. | 20 |
| **Refresh Interval (Every X Candles)** | How often to display a new label/marker. | 5 |
| **Big Trade Threshold (\$)** | Minimum USD value for a candle to count as “big.” | 10 000 |
Tune these to the symbol and timeframe you trade (e.g., raise the threshold for BTC‑USDT 1‑h, lower it for micro‑caps).
---
#### Alerts
Enable **“High Big Trade %”** to get notified the moment more than half of the last *N* candles qualify as big trades—handy for spotting sudden accumulation or distribution.
---
#### Typical use cases
* **Breakout confirmation** – A surge in big‑trade % just before price escapes a range can validate the move.
* **Whale spotting** – Detect hidden accumulation on pullbacks or aggressive selling into rallies.
* **Filter noise** – Combine with your favorite trend indicator; only act when both align.

50/100 EMA Crossover with Candle Confirmation📘 **50/100 EMA Crossover with Candle Confirmation – Strategy Description**
The **50/100 EMA Crossover with Candle Confirmation** is a trend-following strategy designed to filter high-probability entries by combining exponential moving average (EMA) crossovers with strong price action confirmation. This strategy aims to reduce false signals commonly associated with EMA-only systems by requiring a **candle close confirmation in the direction of the trend**, making it more reliable for intraday or swing trading across Forex, crypto, and stock markets.
---
### 🔍 **Core Logic**
* The strategy is based on the interaction of the **50 EMA** (fast-moving average) and the **100 EMA** (slow-moving average).
* **Trend direction** is determined by the crossover:
* **Bullish Trend**: When the 50 EMA crosses **above** the 100 EMA.
* **Bearish Trend**: When the 50 EMA crosses **below** the 100 EMA.
* To **filter out false breakouts**, a **candle confirmation** is used:
* For a **Buy signal**: After a bullish crossover, wait for a strong bullish candle (e.g., full-body green candle) to **close above both EMAs**.
* For a **Sell signal**: After a bearish crossover, wait for a strong bearish candle to **close below both EMAs**.
---
### ✅ **Entry Conditions**
**Buy Entry:**
* 50 EMA crosses above 100 EMA.
* Latest candle closes **above both EMAs**.
* Candle must be bullish (green/full body preferred).
**Sell Entry:**
* 50 EMA crosses below 100 EMA.
* Latest candle closes **below both EMAs**.
* Candle must be bearish (red/full body preferred).
---
### 🛑 **Exit or Take-Profit Options**
* **Fixed TP/SL**: 1:2 or 1:3 risk-reward.
* **Trailing Stop**: Based on recent swing highs/lows or ATR.
* **EMA Exit**: Exit trade when the candle closes on the opposite side of 50 EMA.
---
### ⚙️ **Best Settings**
* **Timeframes**: 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H (works well on most).
* **Markets**: Forex, Crypto (e.g., BTC/ETH), Indices (e.g., NASDAQ, NIFTY50).
* **Recommended filters**:
* Use with RSI divergence or volume confirmation.
* Avoid using during high-impact news (especially on lower timeframes).
---
### 🧠 **Why This Works**
The 50/100 EMA crossover provides a **medium-term trend signal**, reducing noise seen in fast EMAs (like 9 or 21). The candle confirmation adds a **momentum filter**, ensuring price supports the directional bias. This makes it suitable for traders who want a balance of trend and entry precision without overcomplicating with too many indicators.
---
### 📈 **Advantages**
* Simple yet effective for identifying trends.
* Filters out fakeouts using candle confirmation.
* Easy to automate in Pine Script or other trading bots.
* Can be combined with support/resistance or SMC zones for better confluence.
---
### ⚠️ **Limitations**
* May lag slightly in ranging markets.
* Late entries possible due to confirmation candle.
* Works best with additional volume or volatility filter.

Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures (O-PLS)Version 0.1
Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures (O-PLS) Indicator for TradingView
This indicator, named "Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures (O-PLS)", is designed to help traders understand the relevance or predictive power of various market variables on the future close price of the asset it's applied to. Unlike standard correlation coefficients that show a simple linear relationship, O-PLS aims to separate variables into "predictive" (relevant to Y) and "orthogonal" (irrelevant noise) components. This Pine Script indicator provides a simplified proxy of the relevance score derived from O-PLS principles.
Purpose of the Indicator
The primary purpose of this indicator is to identify which technical factors (such as price, volume, and other indicators) have the strongest relationship with the future price movement of the current trading instrument. By providing a "relevance score" for each input variable, it helps traders focus on the most influential data points, potentially leading to more informed trading decisions.
Inputs
The indicator offers the following user-definable inputs:
* **Lookback Period:** This integer input (default: 100, min: 10, max: 500) determines the number of past bars used to calculate the relevance scores for each variable. A longer lookback period considers more historical data, which can lead to smoother, less reactive scores but might miss recent shifts in variable importance.
* **External Asset Symbol:** This symbol input (default: `BINANCE:BTCUSDT`) allows you to specify an external asset (e.g., `BINANCE:ETHUSDT`, `NASDAQ:TSLA`) whose close price will be included in the analysis as an additional variable. This is useful for cross-market analysis to see how other assets influence the current chart.
* **Plot Visibility Checkboxes (e.g., "Plot: Open Price Relevance", "Plot: Volume Relevance", etc.):** These boolean checkboxes allow you to toggle the visibility of individual relevance score plots on the chart, helping to declutter the display and focus on specific variables.
Outputs
The indicator provides two main types of output:
Relevance Score Plots: These are lines plotted in a separate pane below the main price chart. Each line corresponds to a specific market variable (Open Price, Close Price, High Price, Low Price, Volume, various RSIs, SMAs, MFI, and the External Asset Close). The value of each line represents the calculated "relevance score" for that variable, typically scaled between 0 and 10. A higher score indicates a stronger predictive relationship with the future close price.
Sorted Relevance Table : A table displayed in the top-right corner of the chart provides a clear, sorted list of all analyzed variables and their corresponding relevance scores. The table is sorted in descending order of relevance, making it easy to identify the most influential factors at a glance. Each variable name in the table is colored according to its plot color, and the external asset's name is dynamically displayed without the "BINANCE:" prefix.
How to Use the Indicator
1. **Add to Chart:** Apply the "Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures (O-PLS)" indicator to your desired trading chart (e.g., ETH/USDT).
2. **Adjust Inputs:**
* **Lookback Period:** Experiment with different lookback periods to see how the relevance scores change. A shorter period might highlight recent correlations, while a longer one might show more fundamental relationships.
* **External Asset Symbol:** If you trade BTC/USDT, you might add ETH/USDT or SPX as an external asset to see its influence.
3. **Analyze Relevance Scores:**
* **Plots:** Observe the individual relevance score plots over time. Are certain variables consistently high? Do scores change before significant price moves?
* **Table:** Refer to the sorted table on the latest confirmed bar to quickly identify the top-ranked variables.
4. **Incorporate into Strategy:** Use the insights from the relevance scores to:
* Prioritize certain indicators or price actions in your trading strategy. For example, if "Volume" has a high relevance score, it suggests volume confirmation is critical for future price moves.
* Understand the influence of inter-market relationships (via the External Asset Close).
How the Indicator Works
The indicator works by performing the following steps on each bar:
1. **Data Fetching:** It gathers historical data for various price components (open, high, low, close), volume, and calculated technical indicators (SMA, RSI, MFI) for the specified `lookback` period. It also fetches the close price of an `External Asset Symbol` .
2. **Standardization (Z-scoring):** All collected raw data series are standardized by converting them into Z-scores. This involves subtracting the mean of each series and dividing by its standard deviation . Standardization is crucial because it brings all variables to a common scale, preventing variables with larger absolute values from disproportionately influencing the correlation calculations.
3. **Correlation Calculation (Proxy for O-PLS Relevance):** The indicator then calculates a simplified form of correlation between each standardized input variable and the standardized future close price (Y variable) . This correlation is a proxy for the relevance that O-PLS would identify. A high absolute correlation indicates a strong linear relationship.
4. **Relevance Scaling:** The calculated correlation values are then scaled to a range of 0 to 10 to provide an easily interpretable "relevance score" .
5. **Output Display:** The relevance scores are presented both as time-series plots (allowing observation of changes over time) and in a real-time sorted table (for quick identification of top factors on the current bar) .
How it Differs from Full O-PLS
This indicator provides a *simplified proxy* of O-PLS principles rather than a full, mathematically rigorous O-PLS model. Here's why and how it differs:
* **Dimensionality Reduction:** A full O-PLS model would involve complex matrix factorization techniques to decompose the independent variables (X) into components that are predictive of Y and components that are orthogonal (unrelated) to Y but still describe X's variance. Pine Script's array capabilities and computational limits make direct implementation of these matrix operations challenging.
* **Orthogonal Components:** A true O-PLS model explicitly identifies and removes orthogonal components (noise) from the X data that are unrelated to Y. This indicator, in its simplified form, primarily focuses on the direct correlation (relevance) between each X variable and Y after standardization, without explicitly modeling and separating these orthogonal variations.
* **Predictive Model:** A full O-PLS model is ultimately a predictive model that can be used for regression (predicting Y). This indicator, however, focuses solely on **identifying the relevance/correlation of inputs to Y**, rather than building a predictive model for Y itself. It's more of an analytical tool for feature importance than a direct prediction engine.
* **Computational Intensity:** Full O-PLS involves Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) or Partial Least Squares (PLS) algorithms, which are computationally intensive. The indicator uses simpler statistical measures (mean, standard deviation, and direct correlation calculation over a lookback window) that are feasible within Pine Script's execution limits.
In essence, this Pine Script indicator serves as a practical tool for gaining insights into variable relevance, inspired by the spirit of O-PLS, but adapted for the constraints and common use cases of a TradingView environment.
RSI Mansfield +RSI Mansfield+ – Adaptive Relative Strength Indicator with Divergences
Overview
RSI Mansfield+ is an advanced relative strength indicator that compares your instrument’s performance against a configurable benchmark index or asset (e.g., Bitcoin Dominance, S&P 500). It combines Mansfield normalization, adaptive smoothing techniques, and automatic detection of bullish and bearish divergences (regular and hidden), delivering a comprehensive tool for assessing relative strength across any market and timeframe.
Originality and Motivation
Unlike traditional relative strength scripts, this indicator introduces several distinctive improvements:
Mansfield Normalization: Scales the ratio between the asset and the benchmark relative to its moving average, transforming it into a normalized oscillator that fluctuates around zero, making it easier to spot outperformance or underperformance.
Adaptive Smoothing: Automatically selects whether to use EMA or SMA based on the market type (crypto or stocks) and timeframe (intraday, daily, weekly, monthly), avoiding manual configuration and providing more robust results under varying volatility conditions.
Divergence Detection: Identifies four types of divergences in the Mansfield oscillator to help anticipate potential reversal points or trend confirmations.
Multi-Market Support: Offers benchmark selection among major crypto and global stock indices from a single input.
These enhancements make RSI Mansfield+ more practical and powerful than conventional relative strength scripts with static benchmarks or without divergence capabilities.
Core Concepts
Relative Strength (RS): Compares price evolution between your asset and the selected benchmark.
Mansfield Normalization: Measures how much the RS deviates from its historical moving average, expressed as a scaled oscillator.
Divergences: Detects regular and hidden bullish or bearish divergences within the Mansfield oscillator.
Timeframe Adaptation: Dynamically adjusts moving average lengths based on timeframe and market type.
How It Works
Benchmark Selection
Choose among over 10 indices or market domains (BTC Dominance, ETH Dominance, S&P 500, European indices, etc.).
Ratio Calculation
Computes the price-to-benchmark ratio and smooths it with the adaptive moving average.
Normalization and Scaling
Transforms deviations into a Mansfield oscillator centered around zero.
Dynamic Coloring
Green indicates relative outperformance, red signals underperformance.
Divergence Detection
Automatically identifies bullish and bearish (regular and hidden) divergences by comparing oscillator pivots against price pivots.
Baseline Reference
A clear zero line helps interpret relative strength trends.
Usage Guidelines
Benchmark Comparison
Ideal for traders analyzing whether an asset is outperforming or lagging its sector or market.
Divergence Analysis
Helps detect potential reversal or continuation signals in relative strength.
Multi-Timeframe Compatibility
Can be applied to intraday, daily, weekly, or monthly charts.
Interpretation
Oscillator >0 and green: outperforming the benchmark.
Oscillator <0 and red: underperforming.
Bullish divergences: potential relative strength reversal to the upside.
Bearish divergences: possible loss of momentum or reversal to the downside.
Credits
The concept of Mansfield Relative Strength is based on Stan Weinstein’s original work on relative performance analysis. This script was built entirely from scratch in TradingView Pine Script v6, incorporating original logic for adaptive smoothing, normalized scaling, and divergence detection, without reusing any external open-source code.
Exponential-Decay Cumulative Spread (Cycle-Tuned)## Indicator Overview
**Exponential-Decay Cumulative Spread (Cycle-Tuned)** – short title **LambdaCumDelta** – tracks the percentage spread between CEXs BTC spot prices.
By clipping outliers, applying an exponential-decay running sum, and comparing that sum to rolling percentile bands, the script flags potential **cycle bottoms** and **cycle tops** whenever the cumulative spread stays beyond extreme thresholds for three consecutive bars.
---
### Core Logic
1. **Price Spread**
`spread_pct = (cexA – cexB) / cexB × 100`.
2. **Outlier Suppression**
* Calculates the **90-day standard deviation σ** of `spread_pct`.
* Uses a **clip coefficient `k_clip`** (0.5–5.0) to cap the spread at `±k_clip × σ`, damping single-day anomalies.
3. **Exponential-Decay Sum**
* Applies a decay factor **λ** (0.50–0.999):
```
CumΔₜ = spread_clipₜ + λ × CumΔₜ₋₁
```
* Larger λ → longer memory half-life.
4. **Rolling Percentile Bands**
* Uses a **365-bar window** to derive dynamic percentile thresholds.
* Upper / Lower bands are set by **perc\_hi** and **perc\_lo** (e.g., 85 % and 15 %).
5. **Signal Definition**
* **Bullish** (cycle bottom): `CumΔ` above the upper band for **3 straight bars**.
* **Bearish** (cycle top): `CumΔ` below the lower band for **3 straight bars**.

### Chart Elements
| Plot | Style | Meaning |
| --------------- | ----------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| **CumΔ** | Teal thick line | Exponential-decay cumulative spread |
| Upper Threshold | Green thin line | Rolling upper percentile |
| Lower Threshold | Red thin line | Rolling lower percentile |
| Background | Faded green / red | Bullish / bearish signal zone |
---
### Key Inputs
| Input | Default | Purpose |
| -------------------- | ------- | ------------------------------- |
| **Decay factor λ** | 0.95 | Memory length of CumΔ |
| **Clip coefficient** | 2.0 | Multiple of σ for outlier cap |
| **Upper percentile** | 85 | Cycle-bottom trigger percentile |
| **Lower percentile** | 15 | Cycle-top trigger percentile |
---
### Practical Tips
1. **Timing bias**
* Green background often precedes mean-reversion of the spread – consider scaling into longs or covering shorts.
* Red background suggests stretched positive spread – consider trimming longs or lightening exposure.
2. **Combine with volume, trend filters (MA, MACD, etc.)** to weed out false extremes.
3. Designed for **daily charts**; ensure both exchange feeds are synchronized.

Dynamic SL/TP Levels (ATR or Fixed %)This indicator, "Dynamic SL/TP Levels (ATR or Fixed %)", is designed to help traders visualize potential stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels for both long and short positions, refreshing dynamically on each new bar. It assumes entry at the current bar's close price and uses a fixed 1:2 risk-reward ratio (TP is twice the distance of SL in the profit direction). Levels are displayed in a compact table in the chart pane for easy reference, without cluttering the main chart with lines.
Key Features:
Calculation Modes:
ATR-Based (Dynamic): SL distance is derived from the Average True Range (ATR) multiplied by a user-defined factor (default 1.5x). This adapts to the asset's volatility, providing breathing room based on recent price movements.
Fixed Percentage: SL is set as a direct percentage of the current close price (default 0.5%), offering consistent gaps regardless of volatility.
Long and Short Support: Calculates and shows SL/TP for longs (SL below close, TP above) and shorts (SL above close, TP below), with toggles to hide/show each.
Real-Time Updates: Levels recalculate every bar, making them readily available for entry decisions in your trading system.
Display: Outputs to a table in the top-right pane, showing precise values formatted to the asset's tick size (e.g., full decimal places for crypto).
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart via TradingView's Pine Editor or library.
Adjust settings:
Toggle "Use ATR?" on/off to switch modes.
Set "ATR Length" (default 14) and "ATR Multiplier for SL" for dynamic mode.
Set "Fixed SL %" for percentage mode.
Enable/disable "Show Long Levels" or "Show Short Levels" as needed.
Interpret the table: Use the displayed SL/TP values when your strategy signals an entry. For risk management, combine with position sizing (e.g., risk 1% of account per trade based on SL distance).
Example: On a volatile asset like BTC, ATR mode might set a wider SL for realism; on stable pairs, fixed % ensures predictability.
This tool promotes disciplined trading by tying levels to price action or fixed rules, but it's not financial advice—always backtest and use with your full strategy. Feedback welcome!
