Squeeze Momentum Indicator [LazyBear]
Fixed a typo in the code where BB multiplier was stuck at 1.5. Thanks @ucsgears for bringing it to my notice.
Updated source: pastebin.com
Use the updated source instead of the what TV shows below.
This is a derivative of John Carter's "TTM Squeeze" volatility indicator, as discussed in his book "Mastering the Trade" (chapter 11).
Black crosses on the midline show that the market just entered a squeeze (Bollinger Bands are with in Keltner Channel). This signifies low volatility, market preparing itself for an explosive move (up or down). Gray crosses signify "Squeeze release".
Mr.Carter suggests waiting till the first gray after a black cross, and taking a position in the direction of the momentum (for ex., if momentum value is above zero, go long). Exit the position when the momentum changes (increase or decrease --- signified by a color change). My (limited) experience with this shows, an additional indicator like ADX / WaveTrend, is needed to not miss good entry points. Also, Mr.Carter uses simple momentum indicator, while I have used a different method (linreg based) to plot the histogram.

CMO (Chande Momentum Oscillator)Hi
Let me introduce my CMO (Chande Momentum Oscillator) script.
This indicator plots Chandre Momentum Oscillator. This indicator was
developed by Tushar Chande. A scientist, an inventor, and a respected
trading system developer, Mr. Chande developed the CMO to capture what
he calls "pure momentum". For more definitive information on the CMO and
other indicators we recommend the book The New Technical Trader by Tushar
Chande and Stanley Kroll.
The CMO is closely related to, yet unique from, other momentum oriented
indicators such as Relative Strength Index, Stochastic, Rate-of-Change,
etc. It is most closely related to Welles Wilder`s RSI, yet it differs
in several ways:
- It uses data for both up days and down days in the numerator, thereby
directly measuring momentum;
- The calculations are applied on unsmoothed data. Therefore, short-term
extreme movements in price are not hidden. Once calculated, smoothing
can be applied to the CMO, if desired;
- The scale is bounded between +100 and -100, thereby allowing you to
clearly see changes in net momentum using the 0 level. The bounded scale
also allows you to conveniently compare values across different securities.
BK AK-IED💥 Introducing BK AK-IED — Volatility Ignition / Expansion / Detonation 💥
A pressure-to-release weapon system for traders who want timing, not noise.
Markets don’t move clean because they “feel like it.” They load, they ignite, and then they detonate into expansion. BK AK-IED is built to expose that sequence in real time—so you stop trading randomness and start trading regime shifts.
⚔️ What BK AK-IED is
BK AK-IED is a 3-speed VWMA energy oscillator that blends price movement + volume into a single pressure readout:
Fast (5) = ignition energy (range-driven)
Medium (21) = core pressure engine
Slow (55) = structural volatility backdrop
It’s not a “direction oracle.” It’s an energy meter that tells you when the market is coiling, when it’s waking up, and when it’s breaking out with force.
🧠 Core Weapon Systems
✅ Dynamic Scaling
Keeps the oscillator readable across symbols (no ridiculous y-axis blowouts).
✅ Volatility State Bar (Bottom Strip) — Your War Room
🟨 CONTRACTION = VWMA convergence / coil / pressure loading
🟩 EXPANSION = energy spike begins
🟥 BREAKOUT = expansion without contraction (release phase)
⬜ NEUTRAL = dead zone, don’t force it
✅ Breakout Peak Icons (Crown markers)
Crowns print only when there’s true breakout energy and the move hits major peak territory versus recent extremes. Translation:
tighten risk, scale-out, stop getting greedy. These are exhaustion warnings—not automatic reversals.
Timeframe-adaptive peak filtering is built in:
< 1H: stricter peak requirement
≥ 1H: more realistic swing threshold
🧭 How to use it (execution, not opinions)
1) 🟨 Contraction = don’t bleed.
This is the chop factory. You wait. You map levels. You stalk.
2) 🟩 Expansion = prepare.
Start aligning with structure: trend framework, VWAP, key levels, HTF bias.
3) 🟥 Breakout = engage.
This is where moves pay. Trade the direction your structure supports and manage risk like a professional.
4) 👑 Peak during breakout = harvest / protect.
Scale. Tighten stops. Don’t turn winners into donations.
🧱 Inputs that matter (what you’re actually tuning)
Amplitude Multiplier = how aggressive the energy read is
VWMA Spread Contraction Threshold = how tight “coil” must be to count
Scale Lookback = how far back the dynamic scaling references
Peak Thresholds = how selective peaks are (auto-switches based on timeframe)
The “AK” in the name is an acknowledgment of my mentor A.K. His standards (patience, precision, clarity, and emotional control) are a major reason I build tools with structure instead of hype.
And above all: all praise to Gd — the true source of wisdom, restraint, and right timing.
👑 King Solomon Lens — ZENITH Discipline
Solomon didn’t build greatness by impulse. He built it by measure, order, and restraint.
When the Temple was built, the stones were prepared away from the site—so the structure went up with precision, not chaos. That is the market lesson: the decisive moment is loud, but the preparation is silent. If you only show up for the noise, you will always arrive late.
BK AK-IED is that Solomon blueprint on a chart:
🟨 Contraction is the quarry.
The market is cutting the stones in silence. This is where the undisciplined burn money “doing something.” The wise do the opposite: they reduce noise, define levels, and wait.
🟩 Expansion is the line being set.
Pressure starts to move. This is where you bring structure online—bias, levels, risk plan. Not excitement.
🟥 Breakout is the placement.
The stone drops into position. This is the only phase where aggression is righteous—because it’s backed by a real shift, not hope.
👑 Peak icons are ZENITH—crown-of-the-move logic.
Zenith is where force and momentum reach their highest point before decay begins. The crown is not “celebrate and add.” The crown is govern yourself: harvest, tighten, protect. Solomon’s edge wasn’t prediction—it was rule over the self. That’s what separates profit from punishment.
This is what wisdom looks like in trading: not guessing the future—governing your exposure when the present is telling you the truth. And may Gd bless your restraint as much as your entries, because restraint is where survival becomes power.
✅ Final
BK AK-IED is your volatility weapon for market warfare:
Load → Ignite → Detonate.
Use it with structure. Use it with discipline. And give praise to Gd for every protected loss, every clean entry, and every moment you didn’t force a trade. 🙏

Session Opening Range Breakout (ORBO)This strategy automates a classic Opening Range Breakout (ORBO) approach: it builds a price range for the first minutes after the market opens, then looks for strong breakouts above or below that range to catch early directional moves.
Concept
The idea behind ORBO is simple:
The first minutes after the session open are often highly informative.
Price forms an “opening range” that acts as a mini support/resistance zone.
A clean breakout beyond this zone can lead to high-momentum moves.
This script turns that logic into a fully backtestable strategy in TradingView.
How the strategy works
Opening Range Session
Default session: 09:30–09:50 (exchange time)
During this window, the script tracks:
orHigh → highest high within the session
orLow → lowest low within the session
This forms your Opening Range for the day.
Breakout Logic (after the window ends)
Once the defined session ends:
Long Entry:
If the close crosses above the Opening Range High (orHigh),
→ strategy.entry("OR Long", strategy.long) is triggered.
Short Entry:
If the close crosses below the Opening Range Low (orLow),
→ strategy.entry("OR Short", strategy.short) is triggered.
Only one opening range per day is considered, which keeps the logic clean and easy to interpret.
Daily Reset
At the start of a new trading day, the script resets:
orHigh := na
orLow := na
A fresh Opening Range is then built using the next session’s 09:30–09:50 candles.
This ensures entries are always based on today’s structure, not yesterday’s.
Visuals & Inputs
Inputs:
Opening range session → default: "0930-0950"
Show OR levels → toggle visibility of OR High / Low lines
Fill range body → optional shaded zone between OR High and OR Low
Chart visuals:
A green line marks the Opening Range High.
A red line marks the Opening Range Low.
Optional yellow fill highlights the entire OR zone.
Background shading during the session shows when the range is currently being built.
These visuals make it easy to see:
Where the OR sits relative to current price
How clean / noisy the breakout was
How often price respects or rejects the opening zone

Turtle Momentum StrategyTurtle momentum strategy as per Momentum Trading Strategy article on Substack (Nov 26, 2025)
Volatility Signal-to-Noise Ratio🙏🏻 this is VSNR: the most effective and simple volatility regime detector & automatic volatility threshold scaler that somehow no1 ever talks about.
This is simply an inverse of the coefficient of variation of absolute returns, but properly constructed taking into account temporal information, and made online via recursive math with algocomplexity O(1) both in expanding and moving windows modes.
How do the available alternatives differ (while some’re just worse)?
Mainstream quant stat tests like Durbin-Watson, Dickey-Fuller etc: default implementations are ALL not time aware. They measure different kinds of regime, which is less (if at all) relevant for actual trading context. Mix of different math, high algocomplexity.
The closest one is MMI by financialhacker, but his approach is also not time aware, and has a higher algocomplexity anyways. Best alternative to mine, but pls modify it to use a time-weighted median.
Fractal dimension & its derivatives by John Ehlers: again not time aware, very low info gain, relies on bar sizes (high and lows), which don’t always exist unlike changes between datapoints. But it’s a geometric tool in essence, so this is fundamental. Let it watch your back if you already use it.
Hurst exponent: much higher algocomplexity, mix of parametric and non-parametric math inside. An invention, not a math entity. Again, not time aware. Also measures different kinds of regime.
How to set it up:
Given my other tools, I choose length so that it will match the amount of data that your trading method or study uses multiplied by ~ 4-5. E.g if you use some kind of bands to trade volatility and you calculate them over moving window 64, put VSNR on 256.
However it depends mathematically on many things, so for your methods you may instead need multipliers of 1 or ~ 16.
Additionally if you wanna use all data to estimate SNR, put 0 into length input.
How to use for regime detection:
First we define:
MR bias: mean reversion bias meaning volatility shorts would work better, fading levels would work better
Momo bias: momentum bias meaning volatility longs would work better, trading breakouts of levels would work better.
The study plots 3 horizontal thresholds for VSNR, just check its location:
Above upper level: significant Momo bias
Above 1 : Momo bias
Below 1 : MR bias
Below lower level: significant MR bias
Take a look at the screenshots, 2 completely different volatility regimes are spotted by VSNR, while an ADF does not show different regime:
^^ CBOT:ZN1!
^^ INDEX:BTCUSD
How to use as automatic volatility threshold scaler
Copy the code from the script, and use VSNR as a multiplier for your volatility threshold.
E.g you use a regression channel and fade/push upper and lower thresholds which are RMSEs multiples. Inside the code, multiply RMSE by VSNR, now you’re adaptive.
^^ The same logic as when MM bots widen spreads with vola goes wild.
How it works:
Returns follow Laplace distro -> logically abs returns follow exponential distro , cuz laplace = double exponential.
Exponential distro has a natural coefficient of variation = 1 -> signal to noise ratio defined as mean/stdev = 1 as well. The same can be said for Student t distro with parameter v = 4. So 1 is our main threshold.
We can add additional thresholds by discovering SNRs of Student t with v = 3 and v = 5 (+- 1 from baseline v = 4). These have lighter & heavier tails each favoring mean reversion or momentum more. I computed the SNR values you see in the code with mpmath python module, with precision 256 decimals, so you can trust it I put it on my momma.
Then I use exponential smoothing with properly defined alphas (one matches cumulative WMA and another minimizes error with WMA in moving window mode) to estimate SNR of abs returns.

Lightweight huh?

Stochastic Pro+ Suite📚 What Is the Stochastic Oscillator?
The stochastic oscillator is a momentum indicator comparing a security's closing price to its price range over a set number of periods. The %K line represents the raw stochastic value, while the %D line is a smoothed moving average of %K.
Stochastic helps identify:
Overbought and oversold conditions
Bullish and bearish crossovers
Momentum shifts before price reversals
It is widely used in both trending and ranging markets.
💡 What Makes This Suite Different?
This script supercharges the traditional stochastic with a multi-timeframe engine , divergence detection , and a highly customizable visual suite , including:
✅ Core Features:
- Multi-Timeframe (%K, %D, Spread): Pulls stochastic data from any higher timeframe for improved signal quality.
- Custom Overbought/Oversold Levels: Fully adjustable OB/OS thresholds (default: 80/20).
- %K-%D Spread Histogram: View the difference between %K and %D visually as a histogram.
- Color-coded Cross Highlights: Optional background shading for key crossover events in OB/OS zones (high probability reversal areas).
🔍 Divergence Detection (Optional):
- Bullish Divergence: Price makes lower lows while %K makes higher lows.
- Bearish Divergence: Price makes higher highs while %K makes lower highs.
- Customizable pivot lookbacks and range filters to control divergence strictness.
- Visual divergence labels plotted directly on the oscillator.
🎛️ Fully Toggleable Visuals:
Show/hide %K, %D, OB/OS lines, spread histogram, background highlight, and divergence — all via simple checkboxes.
🔔 Alerts:
Set alerts for both bullish and bearish divergences — ideal for swing, day, or trend reversal strategies.
⚙️ Use Cases
- Spot exhaustion in overbought/oversold zones
- Confirm or filter entries with divergence signals
- Monitor multiple timeframes without switching charts
- Use as a signal tool in confluence with price action or volume indicators

Confirmed Momentum QQQ (RSI/MACD Filter)Gemini and Myself,
How This Targets a Higher Win Rate
The key to the win rate increase is the RSI 20/80 filter.
Long Signal: A long entry is now only taken if the trend is up (SMA cross), the MACD is bullish, and the RSI is not overbought (below 80). By only entering when momentum is not yet exhausted, you increase the chance that the price can travel far enough to hit your 4.0 point Take Profit.
Wider SL: The wider Stop Loss of 2.5 points reduces the chance of being stopped out prematurely by routine market movements (whipsaws), which is the number one killer of win rates in high-frequency trading.
After applying these changes, you will need to run the Strategy Tester again to see the new win rate and the new total number of trades.
Would you like me to help you interpret the new Strategy Tester results once you apply these settings?

Options Momentum SignalCustomizable Intraday Options Scalping Alert.
Several important, complementary indicators combined into one simple signal that pops up under a bar to indicate sustained momentum on a trend. It uses a combination of calculations based on the 1m VWAP, price increase in contrast to previous day's close, and customizable Volatility and Volume Data.
It has adjustable values for the % increase from last close (labeled as Pre-Mkt % Threshold), minimal candle body % to filter out weaker signals, RVOL threshold, minimum CVD (it's rolling, so functions in tandem with the CVD lookback value for the number of bars.)
It offers individual boxes that can be checked on or off to help filter out noise. Boxes are: Use 1m VWAP, Use CVD, 3-bar cooldown (reduces back-to-back signals, especially on shorter (1m, 2m, and 5m) charts), VWAP bounce option to catch bounces happening in real time before the candle closes, Use RVOL, and Use Rolling CVD. These can all be checked on or off and will create vastly different signals depending on what you are filtering for.
These indicators were chosen specifically as I feel they help most with option scalping and is intended to be used alongside a few other indicators for confirmation. Personally, I use a couple anchored VWAPs (highest high, session) as well as a FRAMA channel for confirmation. I also use the following to further confirm trends: TradingView’s RVOL, CVD, and Price Pattern Oscillators, in addition to Beardy Fred's TTM Squeeze Pro.
Hope this helps some people!
