Market State Intelligence [Interakktive]Market State Intelligence (MSI) is a diagnostic market-context indicator that reveals how the market is behaving — not where price "should" go.
MSI does not generate buy/sell signals. Instead, it classifies market conditions into clear behavioural regimes by continuously measuring:
- DRIVE (directional effort)
- OPPOSITION (absorption / resistance)
- STABILITY (structural persistence)
MSI is designed to answer three practical questions:
- What state is the market in right now?
- Is energy building, releasing, or decaying?
- Is participation aligned with price, or opposing it?
█ WHAT MSI DOES
MSI operates as a real-time regime classification engine that processes each closed bar through three independent measurement systems:
DRIVE — Directional Effort (0–100)
- Displacement efficiency (net progress vs total path)
- Range expansion quality (actual range vs expected ATR range)
- Body dominance (body vs candle range)
OPPOSITION — Absorption / Resistance (0–100)
- Wick pressure (rejection relative to attempt)
- Effort–result gap (high effort, low progress)
- Reversal density (counter-moves frequency)
STABILITY — Persistence (0–100)
- Condition persistence (how long conditions hold)
- Variance score (flip frequency)
- Follow-through consistency (reaction continuity)
These three forces feed a deterministic classifier with hysteresis (anti-flicker) to identify five regimes:
COMPRESSION — low drive, low opposition, higher stability (pressure building, direction unclear)
EXPANSION — high drive, low opposition (directional energy release)
TREND — medium-high drive, higher stability, low-medium opposition (healthy continuation)
DISTRIBUTION — medium drive, high opposition (effort absorbed; progress blocked)
TRANSITION — rapidly rising opposition, low stability (regime breakdown / uncertainty)
█ WHAT MSI DOES NOT DO
- No buy/sell signals, entries/exits, or performance claims
- No prediction of future direction
- No repainting: calculations use closed-bar data only
MSI is a market state layer intended to support your execution framework.
█ VISUAL SYSTEM
MSI uses a layered visual grammar designed to remain readable on live charts:
Regime Ribbon
A thin horizontal band showing the current regime via colour. Ribbon opacity reflects regime confidence (stronger confidence = more visible).
Pressure Envelope (core visual)
A soft corridor around price that expands with Drive and becomes more visible as Opposition increases. This visualises "pressure thickness" around current action (not a volatility band for entries).
Structural Memory
Faint background stains appear where regimes previously failed (e.g., expansion collapsing into absorption). These are behavioural context zones showing where market intention was rejected — not support/resistance.
Regime Change Markers (optional)
Subtle labels appear when regimes transition after confirmation. Useful for replay and education.
Effort Halo (optional)
Candle highlighting when Opposition materially exceeds Drive, indicating absorption/inefficiency.
█ HUD PANEL
The HUD displays:
- Current regime name + colour indicator
- A context gate showing whether conditions are aligned with long-bias or short-bias context (not an entry/exit system)
█ REGIME LEGEND
When enabled, displays:
- A one-line definition of the current regime
- Live Drive / Opposition / Stability values for interpretation
█ TIME-TO-DECISION METER
A visual pressure gauge that tends to fill during Compression (energy building) and drain during Expansion (energy releasing). It is a state-tracking meter, not a timing tool.
█ SETTINGS
MSI — Settings
- Preset Mode: Scalper / Swing / Position
- Analysis Mode (Minimal): ON = subtle visuals, OFF = full intensity

MSI — Advanced (Tuning)
- Sensitivity (0.5–2.0)
- Smoothing (0.5–2.0)
- Memory Decay (0.5–2.0)
- Visual Intensity (Low / Medium / High)
█ PRESETS EXPLAINED
Scalper
Higher sensitivity + lower smoothing + faster memory decay. Best for 1m–15m monitoring.
Swing (default)
Balanced behaviour. Best for 15m–4H analysis.
Position
Lower sensitivity + higher smoothing + slower memory decay. Best for 4H–1D macro context.
█ STRUCTURAL MEMORY
When a regime fails (example: Expansion → Distribution), MSI creates a memory imprint:
- Fixed stain window (preset dependent)
- Strength decays over time
- Limited to a maximum number of imprints to reduce chart clutter
These zones represent behavioural rejection, not levels.
█ SUITABLE MARKETS
MSI is designed for Forex, Crypto, Indices, Stocks, and Commodities.
Works from intraday to Daily, with particularly strong readability on 15m–4H.

MA Crossover with R SquaredThis indicator enhances the classic Moving Average (MA) crossover strategy with statistical filtering and prediction capabilities.
Let me explain what it does:
Instead of just showing when a fast MA crosses above/below a slow MA, this indicator adds R² (R-squared) filtering to identify higher-quality crossovers and predicts future crossovers.
What is R²?
R² (Coefficient of Determination) is a statistical measure that shows how well one variable explains the movement of another variable. In simpler terms:
R² = 1.0: Perfect relationship - 100% of the movement in one MA is explained by the other MA
R² = 0.8: Strong relationship - 80%
R² = 0.5: Moderate relationship - 50%
R² = 0.0: No relationship - 0%
Imagine two cars driving on a highway:
High R² (0.9): Both cars are in the same lane, moving together consistently
Low R² (0.3): One car is weaving between lanes while the other stays straight - poor coordination.
Traditional MA crossovers often generate false signals during:
Choppy markets (price bouncing around)
Sideways/ranging markets
Low volatility periods
News events causing temporary spikes
The R² Solution:
R² acts as a "quality filter" that answers: "How meaningful this crossover is?"
What this means:
Before R² filtering: Every crossover generates a signal
After R² filtering: Only crossovers with R² > threshold generate signals
Result: Fewer but higher-quality signals.
MARKET REGIME DETECTION
High R² (> 0.7): Strong trending market - MA crossovers are reliable
Medium R² (0.4-0.7): Moderate trending - use with caution
Low R² (< 0.4): Choppy/range-bound market - avoid MA crossover signals
Increasing R²: MAs are converging/moving together more closely
Decreasing R²: MAs are diverging/losing coordination
Sudden R² drop: Potential market regime change.
Why Square the Correlation?
Correlation: Measures direction AND strength (-1 to +1)
R²: Measures strength ONLY (0 to 1)
In trading: We care about relationship strength, not direction
Direction is already indicated by crossover type (bullish/bearish)
Real-World Interpretation:
If R² = 0.64, it means:
64% of the variation in the fast MA is explained by the slow MA
36% is "noise" or unexplained movement
The MAs are moderately coordinated.
R² Trend Confirmation:
Entry: When crossover occurs AND R² is above threshold
Confirmation: R² continues rising after entry
Exit: R² drops below threshold (relationship weakening)
Multi-Timeframe R² Analysis
Check R² on higher timeframe for trend context
Use current timeframe for entry signals
Example: Daily R² > 0.7 gives bullish bias, use 1-hour for entries.
R² LIMITATIONS & CAUTIONS
1. Lagging Nature
R² is calculated from past data
By the time R² is high, the trend may already be established
2. Not a Standalone Indicator
R² should confirm other signals, not generate them alone
Always combine with price action, volume, support/resistance
3. Curve Fitting Risk
Don't over-optimize R² thresholds on historical data
What worked in the past may not work in the future
Use R² as a filter, not a predictor
4. Market-Specific Behavior
R² thresholds that work in trending stocks may fail in Forex
Cryptocurrencies may require different R² settings than commodities
Always test on your specific market/instrument
Before Taking Any Signal:
✅ Does the crossover have a colored circle? (R² > threshold)
✅ What's the R² number shown? (Higher = better)
✅ Is R² rising or falling? (Rising = strengthening relationship)
✅ Check history table - what happened with similar R² values?
✅ Consider prediction - does it align with current signal?
Simple R² Rules of Thumb:
R² > 0.8: Excellent signal quality
R² 0.6-0.8: Good signal quality
R² 0.4-0.6: Moderate - use additional confirmation
R² < 0.4: Poor - avoid or use extreme caution
Think of R² as:
A quality control inspector for MA crossovers
A relationship therapist for your moving averages
A statistical bouncer that only lets strong signals through
Higher win rate + Better risk/reward = More profitable trading
This script transforms the basic "when lines cross" approach into a sophisticated, statistically-validated trading system. R² is the secret sauce that separates random crossovers (Golden/Death) from meaningful trend changes.

Round Level Pro Stats
Here is a professional English description of your indicator, which you can use for your own records or if you ever want to share it on the TradingView Community Scripts:
Indicator Name: Dynamic Round Levels & Historical Strength Grid
Overview
This indicator is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to identify and evaluate "Round Number" psychological levels (e.g., 1.17100, 1.17200, 1.17300). Unlike a static grid, this tool actively scans historical data to provide a "Strength Score" for each level, helping traders distinguish between minor price points and significant historical reaction zones.
Key Features
Automated Price Grid: Generates a clean, horizontal grid based on user-defined price intervals (Steps). Perfect for Forex (0.001 pips), Stocks, or Crypto.
Historical Strength Engine: Analyzes up to 5,000 historical bars to calculate how "respected" a price level is.
The "3-Candle Confirmation" Logic: A level's strength is only increased if the price touches the line and successfully reverses/bounces, staying on the same side for at least 3 subsequent candles.
Smart Visual Coding:
Green (High Strength): Levels with >60% historical reversal success.
Orange (Medium Strength): Levels with 35%–60% success.
Red (Low Strength): Levels frequently breached without reaction.
Pro HUD Display: Bold percentage labels are positioned at the far right of the chart (near the price scale) to keep the main trading area clutter-free.
How to Use
Set your Step: For Forex, use 0.001 to see 10-pip increments. For Bitcoin or Gold, use 10 or 100.
Lookback Period: Adjust the history scan (up to 5,000 bars) to match your trading timeframe.
Identify Support/Resistance: Look for Green % STR labels. These represent "Round Numbers" that have acted as strong barriers in the past, offering higher-probability entry or exit points.

Ultimate MACD [captainua]Ultimate MACD - Comprehensive MACD Trading System
Overview
This indicator combines traditional MACD calculations with advanced features including divergence detection, volume analysis, histogram analysis tools, regression forecasting, strong top/bottom detection, and multi-timeframe confirmation to provide a comprehensive MACD-based trading system. The script calculates MACD using configurable moving average types (EMA, SMA, RMA, WMA) and applies various smoothing methods to reduce noise while maintaining responsiveness. The combination of these features creates a multi-layered confirmation system that reduces false signals by requiring alignment across multiple indicators and timeframes.
Core Calculations
MACD Calculation:
The script calculates MACD using the standard formula: MACD Line = Fast MA - Slow MA, Signal Line = Moving Average of MACD Line, Histogram = MACD Line - Signal Line. The default parameters are Fast=12, Slow=26, Signal=9, matching the traditional MACD settings. The script supports four moving average types:
- EMA (Exponential Moving Average): Standard and most responsive, default choice
- SMA (Simple Moving Average): Equal weight to all periods
- RMA (Wilder's Moving Average): Smoother, less responsive
- WMA (Weighted Moving Average): Recent prices weighted more heavily
The price source can be configured as Close (standard), Open, High, Low, HL2, HLC3, or OHLC4. Alternative sources provide different sensitivity characteristics for various trading strategies.
Configuration Presets:
The script includes trading style presets that automatically configure MACD parameters:
- Scalping: Fast/Responsive settings (8,18,6 with minimal smoothing)
- Day Trading: Balanced settings (10,22,7 with minimal smoothing)
- Swing Trading: Standard settings (12,26,9 with moderate smoothing)
- Position Trading: Smooth/Conservative settings (15,35,12 with higher smoothing)
- Custom: Full manual control over all parameters
Histogram Smoothing:
The histogram can be smoothed using EMA to reduce noise and filter minor fluctuations. Smoothing length of 1 = raw histogram (no smoothing), higher values (3-5) = smoother histogram. Increased smoothing reduces noise but may delay signals slightly.
Percentage Mode:
MACD values can be converted to percentage of price (MACD/Close*100) for cross-instrument comparison. This is useful when comparing MACD signals across instruments with different price levels (e.g., BTC vs ETH). The percentage mode normalizes MACD values, making them comparable regardless of instrument price.
MACD Scale Factor:
A scale factor multiplier (default 1.0) allows adjusting MACD display size for better visibility. Use 0.3-0.5 if MACD appears too compressed, or 2.0-3.0 if too small.
Dynamic Overbought/Oversold Levels:
Overbought and oversold levels are calculated dynamically based on MACD's mean and standard deviation over a lookback period. The formula: OB = MACD Mean + (StdDev × OB Multiplier), OS = MACD Mean - (StdDev × OS Multiplier). This adapts to current market conditions, widening in volatile markets and narrowing in calm markets. The lookback period (default 20) controls how quickly the levels adapt: longer periods (30-50) = more stable levels, shorter (10-15) = more responsive.
OB/OS Background Coloring:
Optional background coloring can highlight the entire panel when MACD enters overbought or oversold territory, providing prominent visual indication of extreme conditions. The background colors are drawn on top of the main background to ensure visibility.
Divergence Detection
Regular Divergence:
The script uses the MACD line (not histogram) for divergence detection, which provides more reliable signals. Bullish divergence: Price makes a lower low while MACD line makes a higher low. Bearish divergence: Price makes a higher high while MACD line makes a lower high. Divergences often precede reversals and are powerful reversal signals.
Pivot-Based Divergence:
The divergence detection uses actual pivot points (pivotlow/pivothigh) instead of simple lowest/highest comparisons. This provides more accurate divergence detection by identifying significant pivot lows/highs in both price and MACD line. The pivot-based method compares two recent pivot points: for bullish divergence, price makes a lower low while MACD makes a higher low at the pivot points. This method reduces false divergences by requiring actual pivot points rather than just any low/high within a period.
The pivot lookback parameters (left and right) control how many bars on each side of a pivot are required for confirmation. Higher values = more conservative pivot detection.
Hidden Divergence:
Continuation patterns that signal trend continuation rather than reversal. Bullish hidden divergence: Price makes a higher low but MACD makes a lower low. Bearish hidden divergence: Price makes a lower high but MACD makes a higher high. These patterns indicate the trend is likely to continue in the current direction.
Zero-Line Filter:
The "Don't Touch Zero Line" option ensures divergences occur in proper context: for bullish divergence, MACD must stay below zero; for bearish divergence, MACD must stay above zero. This filters out divergences that occur in neutral zones.
Range Filtering:
Minimum and maximum lookback ranges control the time window between pivots to consider for divergence. This helps filter out divergences that are too close together (noise) or too far apart (less relevant).
Volume Confirmation System
Volume threshold filtering requires current volume to exceed the volume SMA multiplied by the threshold factor. The formula: Volume Confirmed = Volume > (Volume SMA × Threshold). If the threshold is set to 1.0 or lower, volume confirmation is effectively disabled (always returns true). This allows you to use the indicator without volume filtering if desired. Volume confirmation significantly increases divergence and signal reliability.
Volume Climax and Dry-Up Detection:
The script can mark bars with extremely high volume (volume climax) or extremely low volume (volume dry-up). Volume climax indicates potential reversal points or strong momentum continuation. Volume dry-up indicates low participation and may produce unreliable signals. These markers use standard deviation multipliers to identify extreme volume conditions.
Zero-Line Cross Detection
MACD zero-line crosses indicate momentum shifts: above zero = bullish momentum, below zero = bearish momentum. The script includes alert conditions for zero-line crosses with cooldown protection to prevent alert spam. Zero-line crosses can provide early warning signals before MACD crosses the signal line.
Histogram Analysis Tools
Histogram Moving Average:
A moving average applied to the histogram itself helps identify histogram trend direction and acts as a signal line for histogram movements. Supports EMA, SMA, RMA, and WMA types. Useful for identifying when histogram momentum is strengthening or weakening.
Histogram Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands are applied to the MACD histogram instead of price. The calculation: Basis = SMA(Histogram, Period), StdDev = stdev(Histogram, Period), Upper = Basis + (StdDev × Deviation Multiplier), Lower = Basis - (StdDev × Deviation Multiplier). This creates dynamic zones around the histogram that adapt to histogram volatility. When the histogram touches or exceeds the bands, it indicates extreme conditions relative to recent histogram behavior.
Stochastic MACD (StochMACD):
Stochastic MACD applies the Stochastic oscillator formula to the MACD histogram instead of price. This normalizes the histogram to a 0-100 scale, making it easier to identify overbought/oversold conditions on the histogram itself. The calculation: %K = ((Histogram - Lowest Histogram) / (Highest Histogram - Lowest Histogram)) × 100. %K is smoothed, and %D is calculated as the moving average of smoothed %K. Standard thresholds are 80 (overbought) and 20 (oversold).
Regression Forecasting
The script includes advanced regression forecasting that predicts future MACD values using mathematical models. This helps anticipate potential MACD movements and provides forward-looking context for trading decisions.
Regression Types:
- Linear: Simple trend line (y = mx + b) - fastest, works well for steady trends
- Polynomial: Quadratic curve (y = ax² + bx + c) - captures curvature in MACD movement
- Exponential Smoothing: Weighted average with more weight on recent values - responsive to recent changes
- Moving Average: Uses difference between short and long MA to estimate trend - stable and smooth
Forecast Horizon:
Number of bars to forecast ahead (default 5, max 50 for linear/MA, max 20 for polynomial due to performance). Longer horizons predict further ahead but may be less accurate.
Confidence Bands:
Optional upper/lower bands around forecast show prediction uncertainty based on forecast error (standard deviation of prediction vs actual). Wider bands = higher uncertainty. The confidence level multiplier (default 1.5) controls band width.
Forecast Display:
Forecast appears as dotted lines extending forward from current bar, with optional confidence bands. All forecast values respect percentage mode and scale factor settings.
Strong Top/Bottom Signals
The script detects strong recovery from extreme MACD levels, generating "sBottom" and "sTop" signals. These identify significant reversal potential when MACD recovers substantially from overbought/oversold extremes.
Strong Bottom (sBottom):
Triggered when:
1. MACD was at or near its lowest point in the bottom period (default 10 bars)
2. MACD was in or near the oversold zone
3. MACD has recovered by at least the threshold amount (default 0.5) from the lowest point
4. Recovery persists for confirmation bars (default 2 consecutive bars)
5. MACD has moved out of the oversold zone
6. Volume is above average
7. All enabled filters pass
8. Minimum bars have passed since last signal (reset period, default 5 bars)
Strong Top (sTop):
Triggered when:
1. MACD was at or near its highest point in the top period (default 7 bars)
2. MACD was in or near the overbought zone
3. MACD has declined by at least the threshold amount (default 0.5) from the highest point
4. Decline persists for confirmation bars (default 2 consecutive bars)
5. MACD has moved out of the overbought zone
6. Volume is above average
7. All enabled filters pass
8. Minimum bars have passed since last signal (reset period, default 5 bars)
Label Placement:
sTop/sBottom labels appear on the historical bar where the actual extreme occurred (not on current bar), showing the exact MACD value at that extreme. Labels respect the unified distance checking system to prevent overlaps with Buy/Sell Strength labels.
Signal Strength Calculation
The script calculates a composite signal strength score (0-100) based on multiple factors:
- MACD distance from signal line (0-50 points): Larger separation indicates stronger signal
- Volume confirmation (0-15 points): Volume above average adds points
- Secondary timeframe alignment (0-15 points): Higher timeframe agreement adds points
- Distance from zero line (0-20 points): Closer to zero can indicate stronger reversal potential
Higher scores (70+) indicate stronger, more reliable signals. The signal strength is displayed in the statistics table and can be used as a filter to only accept signals above a threshold.
Smart Label Placement System
The script includes an advanced label placement system that tracks MACD extremes and places Buy/Sell Strength labels at optimal locations:
Label Placement Algorithm:
- Labels appear on the current bar at confirmation (not on historical extreme bars), ensuring they're visible when the signal is confirmed
- The system tracks pending signals when MACD enters OB/OS zones or crosses the signal line
- During tracking, the system continuously searches for the true extreme (lowest MACD for buys, highest MACD for sells) within a configurable historical lookback period
- Labels are only finalized when: (1) MACD exits the OB/OS zone, (2) sufficient bars have passed (2x minimum distance), (3) MACD has recovered/declined by a configurable percentage from the extreme (default 15%), and (4) tracking has stopped (no better extreme found)
Label Spacing and Overlap Prevention:
- Minimum Bars Between Labels: Base distance requirement (default 5 bars)
- Label Spacing Multiplier: Scales the base distance (default 1.5x) for better distribution. Higher values = more spacing between labels
- Effective distance = Base Distance × Spacing Multiplier (e.g., 5 × 1.5 = 7.5 bars minimum)
- Unified distance checking prevents overlaps between all label types (Buy Strength, Sell Strength, sTop, sBottom)
Strength-Based Filtering:
- Label Strength Minimum (%): Only labels with strength at or above this threshold are displayed (default 75%)
- When multiple potential labels are close together, the system automatically compares strengths and keeps only the strongest one
- This ensures only the most significant signals are displayed, reducing chart clutter
Zero Line Polarity Enforcement:
- Enforce Zero Line Polarity (default enabled): Ensures labels follow traditional MACD interpretation
- Buy Strength labels only appear when the tracked extreme MACD value was below zero (negative territory)
- Sell Strength labels only appear when the tracked extreme MACD value was above zero (positive territory)
- This prevents counter-intuitive labels (e.g., Buy labels above zero line) and aligns with standard MACD trading principles
Recovery/Decline Confirmation:
- Recovery/Decline Confirm (%): Percent move away from the extreme required before finalizing (default 15%)
- For Buy labels: MACD must recover by at least this percentage from the tracked bottom
- For Sell labels: MACD must decline by at least this percentage from the tracked top
- Higher values = more confirmation required, fewer but more reliable labels
Historical Lookback:
- Historical Lookback for Label Placement: Number of bars to search for true extremes (default 20)
- The system searches within this period to find the actual lowest/highest MACD value
- Higher values analyze more history but may be slower; lower values are faster but may miss some extremes
Cross Quality Score
The script calculates a MACD cross quality score (0-100) that rates crossover quality based on:
- Cross angle (0-50 points): Steeper crosses = stronger signals
- Volume confirmation (0-25 points): Volume above average adds points
- Distance from zero line (0-25 points): Crosses near zero line are stronger
This score helps identify high-quality crossovers and can be used as a filter to only accept signals meeting minimum quality threshold.
Filtering System
Histogram Filter:
Requires histogram to be above zero for buy signals, below zero for sell signals. Ensures momentum alignment before generating signals.
Signal Strength Filter:
Requires minimum signal strength score for signals. Higher threshold = only strongest signals pass. This combines multiple confirmation factors into a single filter.
Cross Quality Filter:
Requires minimum cross quality score for signals. Rates crossover quality based on angle, volume, momentum, and distance from zero. Only signals meeting minimum quality threshold will be generated.
All filters use the pattern: filterResult = not filterEnabled OR conditionMet. This means if a filter is disabled, it always passes (returns true). Filters can be combined, and all must pass for a signal to fire.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis
The script can display MACD from a secondary (higher) timeframe and use it for confirmation. When secondary timeframe confirmation is enabled, signals require the higher timeframe MACD to align (bullish/bearish) with the signal direction. This ensures signals align with the larger trend context, reducing counter-trend trades.
Secondary Timeframe MACD:
The secondary timeframe MACD uses the same calculation parameters (fast, slow, signal, MA type) as the main MACD but from a higher timeframe. This provides context for the current timeframe's MACD position relative to the larger trend. The secondary MACD lines are displayed on the chart when enabled.
Noise Filtering
Noise filtering hides small histogram movements below a threshold. This helps focus on significant moves and reduces chart clutter. When enabled, only histogram movements above the threshold are displayed. Typical threshold values are 0.1-0.5 for most instruments, depending on the instrument's price range and volatility.
Signal Debounce
Signal debounce prevents duplicate MACD cross signals within a short time period. Useful when MACD crosses back and forth quickly, creating multiple signals. Debounce ensures only one signal per period, reducing signal spam during choppy markets. This is separate from alert cooldown, which applies to all alert types.
Background Color Modes
The script offers three background color modes:
- Dynamic: Full MACD heatmap based on OB/OS conditions, confidence, and momentum. Provides rich visual feedback.
- Monotone: Soft neutral background but still allows overlays (OB/OS zones). Keeps the chart clean without overpowering candles.
- Off: No MACD background (only overlays and plots). Maximum chart cleanliness.
When OB/OS background colors are enabled, they are drawn on top of the main background to ensure visibility.
Statistics Table
A real-time statistics table displays current MACD values, signal strength, distance from zero line, secondary timeframe alignment, volume confirmation status, and all active filter statuses. The table dynamically adjusts to show only enabled features, keeping it clean and relevant. The table position can be configured (Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Right).
Performance Statistics Table
An optional performance statistics table shows comprehensive filter diagnostics:
- Total buy/sell signals (raw crossover count before filters)
- Filtered buy/sell signals (signals that passed all filters)
- Overall pass rates (percentage of signals that passed filters)
- Rejected signals count
- Filter-by-filter rejection diagnostics showing which filters rejected how many signals
This table helps optimize filter settings by showing which filters are most restrictive and how they impact signal frequency. The diagnostics format shows rejections as "X B / Y S" (X buy signals rejected, Y sell signals rejected) or "Disabled" if the filter is not active.
Alert System
The script includes separate alert conditions for each signal type:
- MACD Cross: MACD line crosses above/below Signal line (with or without secondary confirmation)
- Zero-Line Cross: MACD crosses above/below zero
- Divergence: Regular and hidden divergence detections
- Secondary Timeframe: Higher timeframe MACD crosses
- Histogram MA Cross: Histogram crosses above/below its moving average
- Histogram Zero Cross: Histogram crosses above/below zero
- StochMACD: StochMACD overbought/oversold entries and %K/%D crosses
- Histogram BB: Histogram touches/breaks Bollinger Bands
- Volume Events: Volume climax and dry-up detections
- OB/OS: MACD entry/exit from overbought/oversold zones
- Strong Top/Bottom: sTop and sBottom signal detections
Each alert type has its own cooldown system to prevent alert spam. The cooldown requires a minimum number of bars between alerts of the same type, reducing duplicate alerts during volatile periods. Alert types can be filtered to only evaluate specific alert types (All, MACD Cross, Zero Line, Divergence, Secondary Timeframe, Histogram MA, Histogram Zero, StochMACD, Histogram BB, Volume Events, OB/OS, Strong Top/Bottom).
How Components Work Together
MACD crossovers provide the primary signal when the MACD line crosses the Signal line. Zero-line crosses indicate momentum shifts and can provide early warning signals. Divergences identify potential reversals before they occur.
Volume confirmation ensures signals occur with sufficient market participation, filtering out low-volume false breakouts. Histogram analysis tools (MA, Bollinger Bands, StochMACD) provide additional context for signal reliability and identify significant histogram zones.
Signal strength combines multiple confirmation factors into a single score, making it easy to filter for only the strongest signals. Cross quality score rates crossover quality to identify high-quality setups. Multi-timeframe confirmation ensures signals align with higher timeframe trends, reducing counter-trend trades.
Usage Instructions
Getting Started:
The default configuration shows MACD(12,26,9) with standard EMA calculations. Start with default settings and observe behavior, then customize settings to match your trading style. You can use configuration presets for quick setup based on your trading style.
Customizing MACD Parameters:
Adjust Fast Length (default 12), Slow Length (default 26), and Signal Length (default 9) based on your trading timeframe. Shorter periods (8,17,7) for faster signals, longer (15,30,12) for smoother signals. You can change the moving average type: EMA for responsiveness, RMA for smoothness, WMA for recent price emphasis.
Price Source Selection:
Choose Close (standard), or alternative sources (HL2, HLC3, OHLC4) for different sensitivity. HL2 uses the midpoint of the high-low range, HLC3 and OHLC4 incorporate more price information.
Histogram Smoothing:
Set smoothing to 1 for raw histogram (no smoothing), or increase (3-5) for smoother histogram that reduces noise. Higher smoothing reduces false signals but may delay signals slightly.
Percentage Mode:
Enable percentage mode when comparing MACD across instruments with different price levels. This normalizes MACD values, making them directly comparable.
Dynamic OB/OS Levels:
The dynamic thresholds automatically adapt to volatility. Adjust the multipliers (default 1.5) to fine-tune sensitivity: higher values (2.0-3.0) = more extreme thresholds (fewer signals), lower (1.0-1.5) = more frequent signals. Adjust the lookback period to control how quickly levels adapt. Enable OB/OS background colors for visual indication of extreme conditions.
Volume Confirmation:
Set volume threshold to 1.0 (default, effectively disabled) or higher (1.2-1.5) for standard confirmation. Higher values require more volume for confirmation. Set to 0.1 to completely disable volume filtering.
Filters:
Enable filters gradually to find your preferred balance. Start with histogram filter for basic momentum alignment, then add signal strength filter (threshold 50+) for moderate signals, then cross quality filter (threshold 50+) for high-quality crossovers. Combine filters for highest-quality signals but expect fewer signals.
Divergence:
Enable divergence detection and adjust pivot lookback parameters. Pivot-based divergence provides more accurate detection using actual pivot points. Hidden divergence is useful for trend-following strategies. Adjust range parameters to filter divergences by time window.
Zero-Line Crosses:
Zero-line cross alerts are automatically available when alerts are enabled. These provide early warning signals for momentum shifts.
Histogram Analysis Tools:
Enable Histogram Moving Average to see histogram trend direction. Enable Histogram Bollinger Bands to identify extreme histogram zones. Enable Stochastic MACD to normalize histogram to 0-100 scale for overbought/oversold identification.
Multi-Timeframe:
Enable secondary timeframe MACD to see higher timeframe context. Enable secondary confirmation to require higher timeframe alignment for signals.
Signal Strength:
Signal strength is automatically calculated and displayed in the statistics table. Use signal strength filter to only accept signals above a threshold (e.g., 50 for moderate, 70+ for strong signals only).
Smart Label Placement:
Configure label placement settings to control label appearance and quality:
- Label Strength Minimum (%): Set threshold (default 75%) to show only strong signals. Higher = fewer, stronger labels
- Label Spacing Multiplier: Adjust spacing (default 1.5x) for better distribution. Higher = more spacing between labels
- Recovery/Decline Confirm (%): Set confirmation requirement (default 15%). Higher = more confirmation, fewer labels
- Enforce Zero Line Polarity: Enable (default) to ensure Buy labels only appear when tracked extreme was below zero, Sell labels only when above zero
- Historical Lookback: Adjust search period (default 20 bars) for finding true extremes. Higher = more history analyzed
Cross Quality:
Cross quality score is automatically calculated for crossovers. Use cross quality filter to only accept high-quality crossovers (threshold 50+ for moderate, 70+ for high quality).
Alerts:
Set up alerts for your preferred signal types. Enable alert cooldown (default enabled, 5 bars) to prevent alert spam. Use alert type filter to only evaluate specific alert types (All, MACD Cross, Zero Line, Divergence, Secondary Timeframe, Histogram MA, Histogram Zero, StochMACD, Histogram BB, Volume Events, OB/OS, Strong Top/Bottom). Each signal type has its own alert condition, so you can be selective about which signals trigger alerts.
Visual Elements and Signal Markers
The script uses various visual markers to indicate signals and conditions:
- MACD Line: Green when above signal (bullish), red when below (bearish) if dynamic colors enabled. Optional black outline for enhanced visibility
- Signal Line: Orange line with optional black outline for enhanced visibility
- Histogram: Color-coded based on direction and momentum (green for bullish rising, lime for bullish falling, red for bearish falling, orange for bearish rising)
- Zero Line: Horizontal reference line at MACD = 0
- Fill to Zero: Green/red semi-transparent fill between MACD line and zero line showing bullish/bearish territory
- Fill Between OB/OS: Blue semi-transparent fill between overbought/oversold thresholds highlighting neutral zone
- OB/OS Background Colors: Background coloring when MACD enters overbought/oversold zones
- Background Colors: Dynamic or monotone backgrounds indicating MACD state, or custom chart background
- Divergence Labels: "🐂" for bullish, "🐻" for bearish, "H Bull" for hidden bullish, "H Bear" for hidden bearish
- Divergence Lines: Colored lines connecting pivot points when divergences are detected
- Volume Climax Markers: ⚡ symbol for extremely high volume
- Volume Dry-Up Markers: 💧 symbol for extremely low volume
- Buy/Sell Strength Labels: Show signal strength percentage (e.g., "Buy Strength: 75%")
- Strong Top/Bottom Labels: "sTop" and "sBottom" for extreme level recoveries
- Secondary MACD Lines: Purple lines showing higher timeframe MACD
- Histogram MA: Orange line showing histogram moving average
- Histogram BB: Blue bands around histogram showing extreme zones
- StochMACD Lines: %K and %D lines with overbought/oversold thresholds
- Regression Forecast: Dotted blue lines extending forward with optional confidence bands
Signal Priority and Interpretation
Signals are generated independently and can occur simultaneously. Higher-priority signals generally indicate stronger setups:
1. MACD Cross with Multiple Filters - Highest priority: Requires MACD crossover plus all enabled filters (histogram, signal strength, cross quality) and secondary timeframe confirmation if enabled. These are the most reliable signals.
2. Zero-Line Cross - High priority: Indicates momentum shift. Can provide early warning signals before MACD crosses the signal line.
3. Divergence Signals - Medium-High priority: Pivot-based divergence is more reliable than simple divergence. Hidden divergence indicates continuation rather than reversal.
4. MACD Cross with Basic Filters - Medium priority: MACD crosses signal line with basic histogram filter. Less reliable alone but useful when combined with other confirmations.
Best practice: Wait for multiple confirmations. For example, a MACD crossover combined with divergence, volume confirmation, and secondary timeframe alignment provides the strongest setup.
Chart Requirements
For proper script functionality and compliance with TradingView requirements, ensure your chart displays:
- Symbol name: The trading pair or instrument name should be visible
- Timeframe: The chart timeframe should be clearly displayed
- Script name: "Ultimate MACD " should be visible in the indicator title
These elements help traders understand what they're viewing and ensure proper script identification. The script automatically includes this information in the indicator title and chart labels.
Performance Considerations
The script is optimized for performance:
- Calculations use efficient Pine Script functions (ta.ema, ta.sma, etc.) which are optimized by TradingView
- Conditional execution: Features only calculate when enabled
- Label management: Old labels are automatically deleted to prevent accumulation
- Array management: Divergence label arrays are limited to prevent memory accumulation
The script should perform well on all timeframes. On very long historical data with many enabled features, performance may be slightly slower, but it remains usable.
Known Limitations and Considerations
- Dynamic OB/OS levels can vary significantly based on recent MACD volatility. In very volatile markets, levels may be wider; in calm markets, they may be narrower.
- Volume confirmation requires sufficient historical volume data. On new instruments or very short timeframes, volume calculations may be less reliable.
- Higher timeframe MACD uses request.security() which may have slight delays on some data feeds.
- Stochastic MACD requires the histogram to have sufficient history. Very short periods on new charts may produce less reliable StochMACD values initially.
- Divergence detection requires sufficient historical data to identify pivot points. Very short lookback periods may produce false positives.
Practical Use Cases
The indicator can be configured for different trading styles and timeframes:
Swing Trading:
Use MACD(12,26,9) with secondary timeframe confirmation. Enable divergence detection. Use signal strength filter (threshold 50+) and cross quality filter (threshold 50+) for higher-quality signals. Enable histogram analysis tools for additional context.
Day Trading:
Use MACD(8,17,7) or use "Day Trading" preset with minimal histogram smoothing for faster signals. Enable zero-line cross alerts for early signals. Use volume confirmation with threshold 1.2-1.5. Enable histogram MA for momentum tracking.
Trend Following:
Use MACD(12,26,9) or longer periods (15,30,12) for smoother signals. Enable secondary timeframe confirmation for trend alignment. Hidden divergence signals are useful for trend continuation entries. Use cross quality filter to identify high-quality crossovers.
Reversal Trading:
Focus on divergence detection (pivot-based for accuracy) combined with zero-line crosses. Enable volume confirmation. Use histogram Bollinger Bands to identify extreme histogram zones. Enable StochMACD for overbought/oversold identification.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Enable secondary timeframe MACD to see context from larger timeframes. For example, use daily MACD on hourly charts to understand the larger trend context. Enable secondary confirmation to require higher timeframe alignment for signals.
Practical Tips and Best Practices
Getting Started:
Start with default settings and observe MACD behavior. The default configuration (MACD 12,26,9 with EMA) is balanced and works well across different markets. After observing behavior, customize settings to match your trading style. Consider using configuration presets for quick setup.
Reducing Repainting:
All signals are based on confirmed bars, minimizing repainting. The script uses confirmed bar data for all calculations to ensure backtesting accuracy.
Signal Quality:
MACD crosses with multiple filters provide the highest-quality signals because they require alignment across multiple indicators. These signals have lower frequency but higher reliability. Use signal strength scores to identify the strongest signals (70+). Use cross quality scores to identify high-quality crossovers (70+).
Filter Combinations:
Start with histogram filter for basic momentum alignment, then add signal strength filter for moderate signals, then cross quality filter for high-quality crossovers. Combining all filters significantly reduces false signals but also reduces signal frequency. Find your balance based on your risk tolerance.
Volume Filtering:
Set volume threshold to 1.0 (default, effectively disabled) or lower to effectively disable volume filtering if you trade instruments with unreliable volume data or want to test without volume confirmation. Standard confirmation uses 1.2-1.5 threshold.
MACD Period Selection:
Standard MACD(12,26,9) provides balanced signals suitable for most trading. Shorter periods (8,17,7) for faster signals, longer (15,30,12) for smoother signals. Adjust based on your timeframe and trading style. Consider using configuration presets for optimized settings.
Moving Average Type:
EMA provides balanced responsiveness with smoothness. RMA is smoother and less responsive. WMA gives more weight to recent prices. SMA gives equal weight to all periods. Choose based on your preference for responsiveness vs. smoothness.
Divergence:
Pivot-based divergence is more reliable than simple divergence because it uses actual pivot points. Hidden divergence indicates continuation rather than reversal, useful for trend-following strategies. Adjust pivot lookback parameters to control sensitivity.
Dynamic Thresholds:
Dynamic OB/OS thresholds automatically adapt to volatility. In volatile markets, thresholds widen; in calm markets, they narrow. Adjust the multipliers to fine-tune sensitivity. Enable OB/OS background colors for visual indication.
Zero-Line Crosses:
Zero-line crosses indicate momentum shifts and can provide early warning signals before MACD crosses the signal line. Enable alerts for zero-line crosses to catch these early signals.
Alert Management:
Enable alert cooldown (default enabled, 5 bars) to prevent alert spam. Use alert type filter to only evaluate specific alert types. Signal debounce (default enabled, 3 bars) prevents duplicate MACD cross signals during choppy markets.

Futures Ultra CVD (Pure )Futures Ultra CVD (Pure)
Futures Ultra CVD (Pure) is a volume-driven Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator designed to expose real buying and selling pressure behind price movement. Unlike price-only indicators, this script analyzes how volume is distributed within each bar to determine whether aggressive buyers or sellers are in control, then tracks how that pressure evolves over time.
This version is intentionally pure and ungated: it does not rely on external symbols, market filters, session bias, or macro confirmation. All signals are derived strictly from price, volume, and delta behavior of the active chart, making it suitable for futures, equities, crypto, and FX.
Core Concept: How CVD Is Calculated
For each bar, volume is split into buying pressure and selling pressure using the bar’s price position:
Buying volume increases as price closes closer to the high
Selling volume increases as price closes closer to the low
The difference between buying and selling volume forms Delta:
Positive delta = net aggressive buying
Negative delta = net aggressive selling
This delta is then accumulated into Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) using one of three user-selectable modes:
Total – running cumulative sum of all delta values
Periodic – rolling sum over a fixed lookback period
EMA – smoothed cumulative delta using an exponential average
This flexibility allows traders to choose between raw order-flow tracking or smoother, trend-like behavior depending on timeframe and instrument.
Visual Structure & Histogram Logic
The CVD is displayed as a column histogram, not a line, to emphasize momentum and pressure shifts.
Enhanced coloring provides additional context:
Brighter green/red bars indicate increasing momentum
Muted colors indicate stalling or weakening pressure
Optional footprint-style highlights appear when buy or sell volume overwhelms the opposite side by a user-defined imbalance factor
This allows traders to visually distinguish:
Strength vs weakness
Continuation vs exhaustion
Absorption and aggressive participation
Built-In Order Flow Signals
The script automatically detects and labels key order-flow events:
Strong Delta
Triggered when delta exceeds a user-defined threshold, highlighting unusually aggressive buying or selling.
Delta Surge
Detects sudden expansion in delta compared to the prior bar, often associated with breakout attempts or liquidation events.
Zero-Line Crosses
Marks transitions between net bullish and bearish participation as CVD crosses above or below zero.
CVD Continuation Logic (Trend Confirmation)
Beyond raw delta, the script evaluates CVD structure to identify continuation conditions:
A bullish continuation requires:
Positive and rising CVD
Strong buy delta
Confirmation from at least one of the following:
CVD above its EMA and SMA
Bullish price expansion
Sustained positive delta pressure
Bearish continuation follows the inverse logic.
These continuation signals are designed to confirm participation strength, not predict reversals.
Conflict Detection (Divergence Warning)
The indicator also flags conflict conditions, where:
Strong buying occurs while CVD remains negative
Strong selling occurs while CVD remains positive
These scenarios often precede failed breakouts, absorption zones, or short-term reversals and can be used as cautionary signals.
Alerts & Practical Use
All major events include built-in alerts:
Strong delta
Delta surge
CVD continuations
Zero-line crosses
Buy/sell imbalances
Conflict signals
Alerts can be set to trigger on bar close or intrabar in real time, depending on trader preference.
How Traders Typically Use This Indicator
Confirm breakouts with delta participation
Validate trends using CVD continuation instead of price alone
Identify absorption or exhaustion via conflicts and imbalances
Combine with price structure, VWAP, or market profile tools
This script is not a trading system by itself. It is a decision-support tool designed to reveal what price alone cannot: who is actually in control of the market.
On-Chart Symbols & What They Mean
This script uses a small number of visual symbols to communicate order-flow events clearly and consistently. All symbols are derived directly from the Cumulative Volume Delta calculations described above.
Δ+ (Green Up Arrow)
Strong Buy Delta
Indicates that buying pressure on the current bar exceeded the Strong Delta Threshold
Represents aggressive market buying dominating selling volume
Often appears during breakouts, trend acceleration, or initiative buying
This symbol does not imply direction by itself; it only confirms strong buyer participation.
Δ− (Red Down Arrow)
Strong Sell Delta
Indicates that selling pressure on the current bar exceeded the Strong Delta Threshold
Represents aggressive market selling dominating buying volume
Often appears during breakdowns, liquidation events, or initiative selling
Like Δ+, this symbol measures participation strength, not trade direction.
↑ (Green Label Up)
CVD Bullish Continuation
Appears when all of the following are present:
CVD is positive and increasing
Strong buy delta is detected
At least one confirmation condition is met:
CVD is above its EMA and SMA
Price shows bullish expansion
Consecutive positive delta bars (sustained buying pressure)
This symbol highlights trend continuation supported by volume, not a reversal signal.
↓ (Red Label Down)
CVD Bearish Continuation
Appears when:
CVD is negative and decreasing
Strong sell delta is detected
At least one confirmation condition is met:
CVD is below its EMA and SMA
Price shows bearish expansion
Consecutive negative delta bars (sustained selling pressure)
This indicates bearish continuation with participation confirmation.
Cyan / Orange Histogram Bars
Footprint-Style Volume Imbalance
Cyan bars indicate buy volume exceeds sell volume by the imbalance factor
Orange bars indicate sell volume exceeds buy volume by the imbalance factor
These bars highlight areas where one side is overwhelming the other, often associated with absorption, initiative moves, or failed auctions.
Bright vs Muted Histogram Colors
CVD Momentum State
Bright colors = CVD increasing in the direction of its current bias
Muted colors = CVD losing momentum or stalling
This allows quick visual identification of strengthening vs weakening participation.
Conflict Alerts (No Symbol by Default)
Delta vs CVD Disagreement
These conditions trigger alerts (but no fixed chart icon):
Strong buying while CVD remains negative
Strong selling while CVD remains positive
Conflicts often signal absorption, trap conditions, or short-term exhaustion.
Important Usage Notes
All symbols are informational, not trade entries.
Signals are calculated from price-based volume distribution, not true bid/ask data.
Results depend on the quality of volume data provided by the exchange and TradingView.
Adaptive Scaled LevelsThis indicator allows users to manually define a list of price levels (e.g., round or psychological numbers) and automatically scales them to fit any asset's current price range using an intelligent anchor point. It then plots dynamic horizontal zones ideal for identifying potential supply/demand or reaction areas.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
Manual Price List Input
Users enter a comma-separated list of price levels via a text area input (default example: 50,100,...,1400). These act as a "template" grid – often round numbers, psychological levels, or custom targets.
Auto-Scaling Logic (Core Innovation)
When enabled:
Calculates the average of the input list.
Determines a smart anchor price:
Default (Lock = 0): Close price of the highest-volume bar in the last user-defined lookback period (default 200 bars), fetched from a selectable timeframe (default Daily) via request.security().
Override: User can manually lock the anchor to any fixed price.
Computes a scale factor = Anchor / List Average.
Multiplies every input level by this factor to adapt the entire grid to the current market (e.g., scales low-price templates to BTC's 60k+ range).
Zone Construction
For each scaled level:
Creates a horizontal box centered on the level.
Height = Level × user-defined percentage (default 0.5%) for volatility-adjusted thickness.
Zones extend infinitely to the right for continuous reference.
Supply/Demand Coloring
Levels above current close: Supply color (default light gray) – potential resistance/overhead supply.
Levels below current close: Demand color (default cyan) – potential support/underlying demand.
Visual Elements
Transparent filled boxes with borders.
Optional labels showing "S" (Supply) or "D" (Demand) plus exact price.
Clean, non-cluttering design – redraws only on last bar for performance.
How to Use
This tool is perfect for plotting adaptive psychological/round number grids across any asset without manual adjustment.
Common Template: Use evenly spaced round numbers (e.g., 100 increments) as input – the script handles scaling.
BTC/ETH/Crypto: Enable auto-scaling with Daily timeframe anchor for high-volume alignment (often near fair value).
Forex/Stocks: Lower zone height % for tighter zones; use shorter lookback or lock anchor for stability.
Trading Applications:
Anticipate reactions/bounces at scaled levels (confluence with price action, volume, or order blocks).
Supply zones (above price): Potential short entries or take-profit targets.
Demand zones (below price): Potential long entries or stop-loss placement below.
Override anchor for specific analysis (e.g., lock to all-time high).
Best Practices: Combine with trend direction, higher-timeframe structure, or liquidity concepts for higher-probability setups.
Highly versatile – works on any timeframe/asset, especially volatile ones like cryptocurrencies where fixed levels quickly become irrelevant.

DDDDD : EMA Pack (Matched Colors + MTF)📌 DDDDD : EMA Pack (Matched Colors + MTF)
🔹 Concept
DDDDD : EMA Pack is a clean and minimal Exponential Moving Average (EMA) overlay designed for trend structure analysis and multi-timeframe context.
This indicator focuses on visual clarity, consistent color mapping, and optional MTF EMA projection, allowing traders to read market structure without clutter or signal noise.
It is not an entry or signal generator, but a trend and regime visualization tool.
🔹 Logic
The script plots a fixed set of EMAs commonly used to define short-term momentum, intermediate trend, and long-term bias:
EMA 5
EMA 10
EMA 25
EMA 50
EMA 75
EMA 200
Each EMA is calculated using the standard exponential moving average formula.
If a higher timeframe is selected, the EMA is calculated on that timeframe and projected onto the current chart using request.security().
🔹 Methodology
Users may select:
Source price (default: close)
EMA timeframe
Empty = current chart timeframe
Any higher timeframe = true MTF EMA projection
All EMA colors are manually matched and fixed to maintain visual consistency across markets and timeframes.
Line thickness is kept uniform to avoid visual hierarchy bias.
This design ensures the indicator remains purely structural, without repainting logic, smoothing tricks, or adaptive parameters.
🔹 How to Use
Use EMA alignment and spacing to assess:
Trend direction
Trend strength
Compression vs expansion
Higher-timeframe EMA projection can be used as:
Dynamic support/resistance
Trend filter
Regime context for lower-timeframe execution
This indicator works best when combined with:
Price action
Market structure
Separate entry/exit logic of your own system
⚠️ This indicator does not provide buy/sell signals and should not be used alone for trade execution.
🔹 Notes
No repainting beyond standard MTF behavior
No performance or profitability claims
Designed for discretionary and systematic traders
Suitable for stocks, crypto, forex, and indices

Advanced Multi-Level S/R ZonesAdvanced Multi-Level S/R Zones: The Comprehensive Guide
1. Introduction: The Evolution of Support & Resistance:
Support and Resistance (S/R) is the backbone of technical analysis. However, traditional methods of drawing these levels are often plagued by subjectivity. Two traders looking at the same chart will often draw two different lines. Furthermore, standard indicators often treat every price point equally, ignoring the critical context of Volume and Time.
The Advanced Multi-Level S/R Zones script represents a paradigm shift. It moves away from subjective line drawing and toward Quantitative Zoning. By utilizing statistical measures of variability (Standard Deviation, MAD, IQR) combined with Volume-Weighting and Time-Decay algorithms, this tool identifies where price is mathematically most likely to react. It treats S/R not as thin lines, but as dynamic zones of probability.
2. Core Logic and Mathematical Foundation:
To understand how to use this tool optimally, one must understand the "engine" under the hood. The script operates on four distinct pillars of logic:
A. Session-Based Data Collection:
The script does not look at every single tick. Instead, it aggregates data into "Sessions" (daily bars by default logic). It extracts the High, Low, and Total Volume for every session within the user-defined lookback period. This filters out intraday noise and focuses on the macro structure of the market.
B. Adaptive Statistical Variability:
Most Bollinger Band-style indicators use Standard Deviation (StdDev) to measure width. However, StdDev is heavily influenced by outliers (extreme wicks). This script offers a sophisticated Adaptive Method-Skewness Detection: The script calculates the skewness of the price distribution. Adaptive Selection: If the data is highly skewed (lots of outliers, typical in Crypto), it switches to MAD (Median Absolute Deviation). MAD is robust and ignores outliers. If the data is moderately skewed, it uses IQR (Interquartile Range). If the data is normal (Gaussian), it uses StdDev.
Benefit: This ensures the zone widths are accurate regardless of whether you are trading a stable Forex pair or a volatile Altcoin.
C. The Weighting Engine (Volume + Time)
Not all price history is equal. This script assigns a "Weight Score" to every session based on two factors:
Volume Weighting: Sessions with massive volume (institutional activity) are given higher importance. A high formed on low volume is less significant than a high formed on peak volume.
Time Decay: Recent price action is more relevant than price action from 50 bars ago. The script applies a decay factor (default 0.85). This means a session from yesterday has 100% impact, while a session from 10 days ago has significantly less influence on the zone calculation.
D. Clustering Algorithm
Once the data is weighted, the script runs a clustering algorithm. It looks for price levels where multiple session Highs (for Resistance) or Lows (for Support) congregate.
It requires a minimum number of points to form a zone (User Input: minPoints).
It merges nearby levels based on the Cluster Separation Factor.
This results in "Primary," "Secondary," and "Tertiary" zones based on the strength and quantity of data points in that cluster.

Lookback Sessions (Default: 10): Defines how far back the script looks for pivots. A higher number (e.g., 50) creates long-term structural zones. A lower number (e.g., 5) creates short-term scalping zones.
Variability Method (Adaptive): As described above, leave this on "Adaptive" for the best results across different assets.
Zone Width Multiplier (Default: 0.75): Controls the vertical thickness of the zones. Increase this to 1.0 or 1.5 for highly volatile assets to ensure you catch the wicks.
Minimum Points per Zone: The strictness filter. If set to 3, a price level must be hit 3 times within the lookback to generate a zone. Higher numbers = fewer, but stronger zones.
Group 2: Weighting
Volume-Weighted Zones: Crucial for identifying "Smart Money" levels. Keep this TRUE.
Time Decay: Ensures the zones update dynamically. If price moves away from a level for a long time, the zone will fade in significance.
ATR-Normalized Zone Width: This is a dynamic volatility filter. If TRUE, the zone width expands and contracts based on the Average True Range. This is vital for maintaining accuracy during market breakouts or crashes.
Group 3: Zone Strength & Scoring
The script calculates a "Score" (0-100%) for every zone based on:
-Point Count: More hits = higher score.
-Touches: How many times price wicked into the zone recently.
-Intact Status: Has the zone been broken?
-Weight: Volume/Time weight of the constituent points.
-Track Zone Touches: Looks back n bars to see how often price respected this level.
-Touch Threshold: The sensitivity for counting a "touch."
Group 4: Visuals & Display
Extend Bars: How far to the right the boxes are drawn.
Show Labels: Displays the Score, Tier (Primary/Secondary), and Status (Retesting).
Detect Pivot Zones (Overlap): This is a killer feature. It detects where a Support Zone overlaps with a Resistance Zone.
Significance: These are "Flip Zones" (Old Resistance becomes New Support). They are colored differently (Orange by default) and represent high-probability entry areas.
Group 5: Signals & Alerts
Entry Signals: Plots Buy/Sell labels when price rejects a zone.
Detect Break & Retest: specifically looks for the "Break -> Pullback -> Bounce" pattern, labeled as "RETEST BUY/SELL".
Proximity Alert: Triggers when price gets within x% of a zone.
4. Understanding the Visuals (Interpreting the Chart)
When you load the script, you will see several visual elements. Here is how to read them:
The Boxes (Zones)
Red Shades: Resistance Zones.
Dark Red (Solid Border): Primary Resistance. The strongest wall.
Lighter Red (Dashed Border): Secondary/Tertiary. Weaker, but still relevant.
Green Shades: Support Zones.
Dark Green (Solid Border): Primary Support. The strongest floor.
Orange Boxes: Pivot Zones. These are areas where price has historically reacted as both support and resistance. These are the "Line in the Sand" for trend direction.
The Labels & Emojis
The script assigns emojis to zone strength:
🔥 (Fire): Score > 80%. A massive level. Expect a strong reaction.
⭐ (Star): Score > 60%. A solid structural level.
✓ (Check): Score > 40%. A standard level.
"⟳ RETESTING": Appears when a zone was broken, and price is currently pulling back to test it from the other side.
The Dashboard (Top Right)
A statistics table provides a "Head-Up Display" for the asset:
High/Low σ (Sigma): The variability of the highs and lows. If High σ is much larger than Low σ, it implies the tops are erratic (wicks) while bottoms are clean (flat).
Method: Shows which statistical method the Adaptive engine selected (e.g., "MAD (auto)").
ATR: Current volatility value used for normalization.
5. Strategies for Optimum Output
To get the most out of this script, you should not just blindly follow the lines. Use these specific strategies:
Strategy A: The "Zone Fade" (Range Trading)
This works best in sideways markets.
Identify a Primary Support (Green) and Primary Resistance (Red).
Wait for price to enter the zone.
Look for the "SUPPORT BOUNCE" or "RESISTANCE REJECTION" signal label.
Entry: Enter against the zone (Buy at support, Sell at resistance).
Stop Loss: Place just outside the zone width. Because the zones are calculated using volatility stats, a break of the zone usually means the trade is invalid.
Strategy B: The "Pivot Flip" (Trend Following)
This is the highest probability setup in trending markets.
Look for an Orange Pivot Zone.
Wait for price to break through a Resistance Zone cleanly.
Wait for the price to return to that zone (which may now turn Orange or act as Support).
Look for the "RETEST BUY" label.
Logic: Old resistance becoming new support is a classic sign of trend continuation. The script automates the detection of this exact geometric phenomenon.
Strategy C: The Volatility Squeeze
Look at the Dashboard. Compare High σ and Low σ.
If the values are dropping rapidly or becoming very small, the zones will contract (become narrow).
Narrow zones indicate a "Squeeze" or compression in price.
Prepare for a violent breakout. Do not fade (trade against) narrow zones; look to trade the breakout.
6. Optimization & Customization Guide
Different markets require different settings. Here is how to tune the script:
For Crypto & Volatile Stocks (Tesla, Nvidia)
Method: Set to Adaptive (Mandatory, as these assets have "Fat Tails").
Multiplier: Increase to 1.0 - 1.25. Crypto wicks are deep; you need wider zones to avoid getting stopped out prematurely.
Lookback: 20-30 sessions. Crypto has a long memory; short lookbacks generate too much noise.
For Forex (EURUSD, GBPJPY)
Method: You can force StdDev or IQR. Forex is more mean-reverting and Gaussian.
Multiplier: Decrease to 0.5 - 0.75. Forex levels are often very precise to the pip.
Volume Weighting: You may turn this OFF for Forex if your broker's volume data is unreliable (since Forex has no centralized volume), though tick volume often works fine.
For Scalping (1m - 15m Timeframes)
Lookback: Decrease to 5-10. You only care about the immediate session history.
Decay Factor: Decrease to 0.5. You want the script to forget about yesterday's price action very quickly.
Touch Lookback: Decrease to 20 bars.
For Swing Trading (4H - Daily Timeframes)
Lookback: Increase to 50.
Decay Factor: Increase to 0.95. Structural levels from weeks ago are still highly relevant.
Min Points: Increase to 3 or 4. Only show levels that have been tested multiple times.
7. Advantages Over Standard Tools:
Feature Standard S/R Indicator, Advanced Multi-Level S/R Calculation, Uses simple Pivots or Fractals, Uses Statistical Distributions (MAD/IQR). Zone Width Arbitrary or Fixed Adaptive based on Volatility & ATR.
Context Ignores Volume Volume Weighted (Smart Money tracking).
Time Relevance Old levels = New levels Time Decay (Recency bias applied).
Overlaps Usually ignores overlaps Detects Pivot Zones (Res/Sup Flip).
Scoring None 0-100% Strength Score per zone.
8. Conclusion:
The Advanced Multi-Level S/R Zones script is not just a drawing tool; it is a statistical analysis engine. By accounting for the skewness of data, the volume behind the moves, and the decay of time, it provides a strictly objective roadmap of the market structure.
For the optimum output, combine the Pivot Zone identification with the Retest Signals. This aligns you with the underlying flow of order blocks and prevents trading against the statistical probabilities of the market.
HaP D-RSIHaP D-RSI (HaP Dual RSI) This code shares the dual RSI structure and divergences of hakan çift rsi-most indicator as open source. It is designed for simple, understandable, and effective use.
()
HaP D-RSI is a comprehensive oscillator that powerfully enhances the classic Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator. By adding a 9-period EMA on top of the standard RSI(14), it smooths the momentum for clearer readability, while dynamic area filling between the short RSI(10) and long RSI(14) visually emphasizes trend strength. Its strongest feature is the automatic detection of regular (normal) and hidden positive/negative divergences, marked with clear labels. This provides opportunities to catch both trend reversals and continuations early.The indicator operates in a separate panel and includes overbought/oversold levels (70/30/50). With multi-timeframe support, you can display RSI values from a higher timeframe on your current chart.Main FeaturesDual RSI Calculation: Short-period RSI(10) and long-period RSI(14) are calculated separately.
EMA Smoothing: A 9-period EMA is applied to RSI(14) to reduce noise and clarify signals.
Dynamic Area Filling: Dynamic colored filling between RSI(10) and RSI(14)-EMA (blue tones for bullish, red tones for bearish momentum).
Fixed-intensity area between RSI(10) and RSI(14) (emphasizes trend strength).
Overbought/Oversold Lines: Dashed lines at 70 (overbought), 30 (oversold), and 50 (midline).
Full Divergence Detection:Positive Divergence (pu): Price makes a lower low while RSI makes a higher low → Potential bullish reversal.
Hidden Positive Divergence (gpu): Trend continuation signal (buying opportunity after pullback).
Negative Divergence (nu): Price makes a higher high while RSI makes a lower high → Potential bearish reversal.
Hidden Negative Divergence (gnu): Bearish trend continuation signal.
Customizable Pivot Settings: Adjust divergence sensitivity with lookback left/right and distance range.
Multi-Timeframe Support: Ability to pull RSI data from a different timeframe.
Usage InstructionsAdd to Chart: When added, it opens a separate RSI panel.
Settings: Change the short RSI (default 10) and long RSI (default 14) periods as needed.
Adjust the EMA period (default 9) to suit your needs.
If the timeframe is left blank, it uses the current chart timeframe; otherwise, select a higher timeframe.
You can toggle divergence types (positive/negative, hidden/regular) on/off.
Increase pivot lookback values for stronger (fewer signals) divergences.
Signal InterpretationBuy Opportunity: When "pu" or "gpu" labels appear (especially around the 30 level).
Sell Opportunity: When "nu" or "gnu" labels appear (especially around the 70 level).
Area filling colors support momentum direction: Blue tones indicate bullish pressure, red tones indicate bearish pressure.
For best results, use in combination with support/resistance levels, volume, or trend filters (e.g., EMA).
Why Use This Indicator?Powerful Divergence Detection: Automatically and accurately captures both regular (reversal) and hidden (continuation) divergences – a feature missing in many standard RSI indicators.
Visual Clarity: Dynamic colored areas and labels ensure you don't miss signals.
Flexibility: Suitable for all markets (stocks, forex, crypto) and timeframes.
Early Warning System: Divergences often signal before price reversals, providing high-probability entries.

Long-term KST (Know Sure Thing)Description
Long-term Know Sure Thing (KST) oscillator, specifically adapted for non-24h markets such as stocks, indices, ETFs and futures.
This version correctly scales the weekly ROC periods based on the actual trading week length and daily session duration of the instrument — making it accurate across different asset classes (European indices, US equities, crypto, etc.).
Key features:
• Fully customizable trading week (5 days for most stock markets, 7 days for crypto/24h markets)
• Customizable daily session length (8.5h for FTSE MIB/DAX, 6.5h for US equities, 24h for crypto/forex)
• Automatically adjusts bar count per week on any chart timeframe (including Weekly)
• Classic Martin Pring KST parameters (10/13/15/20 ROC weeks, 10/13/15/20 SMA weeks, 1-2-3-4 weighting)
• Includes signal line (SMA of KST) and visual fill between KST and signal (green/red)
What is the Long-term KST used for?
The KST (Know Sure Thing) is a momentum oscillator created by Martin Pring to detect major trend changes, confirm the primary trend direction, and identify significant reversals in medium- to long-term cycles (weeks to months).
Main practical uses:
• Major trend reversals: KST crossing above/below signal line
• Primary trend confirmation: KST above/below zero line
• Classic divergences: Price vs KST divergences often precede important tops/bottoms
• Cycle identification: Helps spot the end of multi-month corrections or the start of new bull/bear phases
• Trend-following filter: Stay long when KST > 0 and rising, stay short when KST < 0 and falling
It is especially powerful on major indices (FTSE MIB, DAX, SPX, NDX, RUT, CAC40, Nikkei…) because it captures institutional money flow with fewer, higher-quality signals compared to faster oscillators.
Best used on:
• Daily, 4H, Weekly charts
• European indices (FTSE MIB, DAX, IBEX…)
• US indices/ETFs (SPX, NDX, RUT…)
• Crypto pairs (set week_length=7, session_duration=24h)
Enjoy trading the big-picture momentum!

Multi-Fractal Trading Plan [Gemini] v22Multi-Fractal Trading Plan
The Multi-Fractal Trading Plan is a quantitative market structure engine designed to filter noise and generate actionable daily strategies. Unlike standard auto-trendline indicators that clutter charts with irrelevant data, this system utilizes Fractal Geometry to categorize market liquidity into three institutional layers: Minor (Intraday), Medium (Swing), and Major (Institutional).
This tool functions as a Strategic Advisor, not just a drawing tool. It calculates the delta between price and structural pivots in real-time, alerting you when price enters high-probability "Hot Zones" and generating a live trading plan on your dashboard.
Core Features
1. Three-Tier Fractal Engine The algorithm tracks 15 distinct fractal lengths simultaneously, aggregating them into a clean hierarchy:
Minor Structure (Thin Lines): Captures high-frequency volatility for scalping.
Medium Structure (Medium Lines): Identifies significant swing points and intermediate targets.
Major Structure (Thick Lines): Maps the "Institutional" defense lines where trend reversals and major breakouts occur.
2. The Strategic Dashboard A dynamic data panel in the bottom-right eliminates analysis paralysis:
Floor & Ceiling Targets: Displays the precise price levels of the nearest Support and Resistance.
AI Logic Output: The script analyzes market conditions to generate a specific command, such as "WATCH FOR BREAKOUT", "Near Lows (Look Long?)", or "WAIT (No Setup)".
3. "Hot Zone" Detection Never miss a critical test of structure.
Dynamic Alerting: When price trades within 1% (adjustable) of a Major Trend Line, the indicator’s labels turn Bright Yellow and flash a warning (e.g., "⚠️ WATCH: MAJOR RES").
Focus: This visual cue highlights the exact moment execution is required, reducing screen fatigue.
4. The Quant Web & Markers
Pivot Validation: Deep blue fractal markers (▲/▼) identify the exact candles responsible for the structure.
Inter-Timeframe Web: Faint dotted lines connect Minor pivots directly to Major pivots, visualizing the "hidden" elasticity between short-term noise and long-term trend anchors.
5. Enterprise Stability Engine Engineered to solve the "Vertical Line" and "1970 Epoch" glitches common in Pine Script trend indicators. This engine is optimized for Futures (NQ/ES), Forex, and Crypto, ensuring stability across all timeframes (including gaps on ETH/RTH charts).
Operational Guide
Consult the Dashboard: Before executing, check the "Strategy" output. If it says "WAIT", the market is in chop. If it says "WATCH FOR BOUNCE", prepare your entry criteria.
Monitor Hot Zones: A Yellow Label indicates price is testing a major liquidity level. This is your signal to watch for a rejection wick or a high-volume breakout.
Utilize the Web: Use the faint web lines to find "confluence" where a short-term pullback aligns with a long-term trend line.
Configuration
Show History: Toggles "Ghost Lines" (Blue) to display historical structure and broken trends.
Fractal Points: Toggles the geometric pivot markers.
Hot Zone %: Adjusts the sensitivity of the Yellow Warning system (Default: 1%).
Max Line Length: A noise filter that removes stale or "spiderweb" lines that are no longer statistically relevant.
Quant VWAP System 3.8 This is the lower-indicator companion to the "Quant VWAP System." While the main chart tells you where the price is, this oscillator tells you how statistically significant the move is.
It uses a Z-Score algorithm to normalize price action. This means it ignores dollar amounts and instead measures how many Standard Deviations (SD) the price is away from its mean (VWAP). This allows you to instantly spot "Overbought" or "Oversold" conditions on any asset (Bitcoin, Forex, or Stocks) without needing to guess.
Key Features:
1. Normalized Extremes (The "Kill Zones")
±2.0 SD: These dotted lines represent statistical extremes. When the signal line crosses above +2.0, the asset is mathematically expensive (Overbought). When it crosses below -2.0, it is mathematically cheap (Oversold).
The Logic: Price rarely sustains movement beyond 2 Standard Deviations without a reversion or a pause.
2. The Squeeze Radar (Yellow Dots)
Volatility Detection: A row of Yellow Dots appearing on the center line indicates a "Squeeze."
What it means: The Standard Deviation bands are compressing. Energy is building.
Warning: DO NOT trade Mean Reversion when you see Yellow Dots. A squeeze often leads to a violent breakout. Wait for the dots to disappear to confirm the direction of the explosion.
3. Momentum Coloring
Green Line: Z-Score is rising (Bullish Momentum).
Red Line: Z-Score is falling (Bearish Momentum).
This helps you spot divergences (e.g., Price makes a Higher High, but the Oscillator makes a Lower High = Exhaustion).
How to Trade with It
Strategy A: The "Zero Bounce" (Trend Continuation)
Scenario: You are in a Bull Trend.
Signal: The Oscillator line pulls back to the Zero Line (White), turns Green, and curls upward.
Meaning: Price has tested the average (VWAP) and buyers have stepped in. This is a high-probability entry for trend continuation.
Strategy B: The "Extreme Fade" (Reversion)
Scenario: The Oscillator pushes deep into the Red Zone (+2.0 SD).
Signal: The line turns Red and crosses back down below the +2.0 dotted line. A small Red Triangle will appear.
Meaning: The statistical extension has failed, and price is likely snapping back to the mean.
Strategy C: Squeeze Breakout
Scenario: Yellow Dots appear on the center line.
Action: Stop trading. Wait.
Signal: The dots disappear, and the line shoots aggressively through +1.0 SD (Long) or -1.0 SD (Short). Ride the momentum.
Witch-Fire ALMA signals: Dynamic Liquidity & Trend GlowThe Witch-Fire ALMA is a high-precision trend bias and liquidity mapping tool designed for price action traders and Smart Money practitioners. Unlike traditional indicators that clutter your chart with lagging signals, this script provides a "clean-yet-powerful" visual anchor to help you stay on the right side of the market while identifying key Points of Interest (POIs).
At its core, the script utilizes an optimized Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA). Known for its superior ability to balance smoothness and responsiveness, the ALMA effectively filters out market noise and "whipsaws" that often plague standard EMAs.
Key Features:
The Witch-Fire Glow: A neon-styled ALMA line that shifts between Bullish Green and Bearish Red. The white core provides surgical precision for price intersection, while the outer glow visualizes the strength and dominance of the current trend.
Scaled Liquidity Levels: Automatically maps Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL). These levels are dynamic—they scale proportionally with your ALMA settings. This ensures that the liquidity zones you see are always relevant to the trend cycle you are analyzing.
Strategic Bias Background: A subtle background tint provides an instant psychological filter. Only look for Longs in the green zone and Shorts in the red zone to maintain a high-probability strike rate.
How to Trade with Witch-Fire:
Identify the Bias: Look at the Fire ALMA. If the "fire" is red and the price is below the line, your bias is strictly bearish.
Watch the Sweeps: Wait for the price to "sweep" (pierce with a wick) the horizontal SSL (Green) or BSL (Red) lines.
Execution: Look for a strong rejection candle (long wick, small body) at these levels that closes back towards the ALMA line.
Best Used On: 15m, 1H, and 4H timeframes. Works exceptionally well for Crypto, Forex, and Indices.
SMA MAD Trend [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated trend identification system that combines Simple Moving Average with Mean Absolute Deviation methodology to create adaptive Super Trend-style bands with advanced strength filtering and gradient visualization. Utilizing ADX-based trend strength validation and slope analysis for signal quality enhancement, this indicator delivers institutional-grade trend detection with dynamic ATR-based ribbon visualization and comprehensive strength measurement. The system's dual-filter architecture eliminates false signals during weak or choppy market conditions while maintaining sensitivity to genuine trend establishment and reversal events.
🔶 Advanced SMA-MAD Band Construction
Implements innovative Mean Absolute Deviation calculation around Simple Moving Average baseline to create volatility-adaptive bands with ratcheting logic for trend persistence. The system calculates MAD by measuring absolute price deviations from the mean, then applies configurable multipliers to generate upper and lower bands that adjust to changing market conditions while preventing premature band violations.
// Core SMA-MAD Framework
SMA_Value = ta.sma(close, SMA_Length)
Mean = ta.sma(close, MAD_Length)
Abs_Deviation = abs(close - Mean)
MAD_Value = ta.sma(Abs_Deviation, MAD_Length)
// Adaptive Bands
Upper_Band = SMA_Value + MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
Lower_Band = SMA_Value - MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
🔶 Intelligent Dual-Filter System
Features comprehensive trend validation using ADX strength measurement and slope analysis to eliminate low-conviction signals during ranging or consolidating markets. The system calculates normalized slope strength using ATR scaling and combines with ADX threshold analysis, generating filtered trend states that distinguish genuine trends from temporary price fluctuations.
🔶 Dynamic Trend Strength Engine
Implements sophisticated strength calculation combining slope intensity and ADX readings to produce normalized 0-100% strength scores with gradient colour intensity modulation. The system normalizes slope by minimum threshold and ADX by configurable level, multiplying factors to create composite strength measurement that drives visual feedback intensity across all indicator elements.
🔶 Super Trend-Style Direction Logic
Utilizes classic Super Trend methodology adapted for SMA-MAD bands, where trend direction flips occur on opposite band violations with persistent state maintenance. The system tracks previous band levels with ratcheting behaviour that adjusts bands only when price movement or new calculations warrant changes, preventing oscillation during normal volatility.
🔶 ATR-Based Ribbon Visualization
Provides dynamic ribbon overlay using ATR-scaled width around the trend line with opacity modulation based on trend strength for intuitive conviction assessment. The system creates upper and lower ribbon bounds at configurable ATR multiples, filling the channel with gradient-adjusted transparency that increases during strong trends and fades during weak conditions.
🔶 Multi-Dimensional Visual Architecture
Provides complete chart integration through trend line overlay, ATR ribbon fills, candle colouring, background glow, and transition signal labels with configurable visibility toggles. The system enables traders to customize display density from minimal (trend line only) to comprehensive (all visual elements) while maintaining consistent colour scheme and strength-based intensity across components.
🔶 Slope Strength Validation
Calculates ATR-normalized slope over configurable lookback periods to measure trend line momentum and filter sideways price action. The system compares absolute slope against minimum threshold requirements, preventing trend signals when price movement relative to the trend line lacks sufficient directional conviction regardless of band position.
🔶 Signal Generation Framework
Generates trend change signals when filtered direction state transitions from bearish to bullish or vice versa, with label placement and alert integration. The system implements state persistence that maintains previous trend until both ADX and slope filters confirm directional change, reducing whipsaw signals while capturing genuine reversals with minimal lag.
🔶 Performance Optimization Framework
Utilizes efficient calculation methods with optimized variable management and configurable parameters for balance between responsiveness and stability.

This indicator delivers sophisticated trend identification through Mean Absolute Deviation methodology combined with dual-strength filtering for superior signal quality. Unlike traditional Super Trend indicators that rely solely on ATR bands, the SMA-MAD approach uses statistical deviation measurement while incorporating ADX strength and slope validation to eliminate false signals during choppy conditions. The system's gradient-based visual feedback, ATR ribbon visualization, comprehensive dashboard, and multi-dimensional filtering make it essential for traders seeking reliable trend-following approaches with clear conviction measurement across cryptocurrency, forex, and equity markets. The combination of adaptive bands, strength-based transparency, and intelligent filtering creates an institutional-grade trend system suitable for systematic trading strategies.
