Trend and RSI Bias FusionTrend and RSI Bias Fusion Indicator
This is my first ever indicator. I created this indicator for myself. I was inspired by the indicators created by Bjorgum, Duyck and QuantTherapy and decided to create multiple indicators that either work well combined with their indicators or something new that applies some of their indicator concepts. I decided to share this because I believe in learning and earing together as a community. I will later share the rest of the indicators I have created. This is my first time ever sharing any indicator so if you guys have any questions or suggestions write them.
Overview
The "Trend and RSI Bias Fusion" indicator is a versatile tool designed to help traders identify key market trends, potential reversals, momentum shifts, and RSI-based pullbacks. This indicator fuses trend analysis and RSI bias into a single, comprehensive visual, making it easier to make informed trading decisions across various timeframes and market conditions.
Features
Dual Timeframe Analysis: Combines trend analysis on a higher timeframe (e.g., Daily) with RSI analysis on a lower timeframe (e.g., 4-Hour), providing a more granular view of market conditions. You can, however, choose any timeframe you want for instance 12hr with trend and 2hr RSI analysis.
Trend and Momentum Visualization: The indicator uses Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to determine trend direction and colors the chart background to reflect bullish or bearish trends, along with momentum strength.
RSI Bias Detection: Automatically identifies overbought and oversold conditions using the RSI, providing a clear indication of potential market reversals or continuations.
Color-Coded Bars: Optionally color codes bars based on either trend direction or RSI bias, giving you a quick visual cue of the market's state.
Reversal Markers: Displays trend reversal markers on the chart when the short-term EMA crosses over or under the long-term EMA.
Calculation Details
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): The indicator calculates short-term and long-term EMAs using the closing prices.
The crossover between these EMAs is used to determine the trend direction:
Short-Term EMA: Typically a 14-period EMA.
Long-Term EMA: Typically a 50-period EMA.
Momentum: Calculated using the RSI and then centered around zero by subtracting 50. This allows the indicator to distinguish between positive and negative momentum.
RSI Bias: The RSI is calculated on a lower timeframe to detect overbought (above 60) and oversold (below 40) conditions, which are used to determine the bias:
RSI Above 60: Indicates potential overbought conditions (bearish bias).
RSI Below 40: Indicates potential oversold conditions (bullish bias).
How to Use the Indicator
Select Your Timeframes: Choose your preferred trend timeframe (e.g., Daily) and RSI timeframe (e.g., 4-2 Hour) in the indicator settings. These should match your trading strategy and the asset class you're analyzing.
Interpret Trend and Momentum
Background Color: The background color reflects the current trend direction:
Green/Lime: Uptrend, with lime indicating positive momentum.
Red/Maroon: Downtrend, with maroon indicating positive momentum within a downtrend.
Momentum Histogram: The histogram plot shows momentum, color-coded by the trend. A histogram above zero with green/lime indicates bullish momentum, while below zero with red/maroon indicates bearish momentum.
Image above: Both RSI and Trend are set to daily, uses RSI bar color
Read RSI Bias:
The RSI bias line helps identify the current market state relative to overbought or oversold levels. The RSI value is plotted on the chart, with lines at 60 and 40 to mark these levels.
When the RSI crosses above 60, it suggests a bearish bias; crossing below 40 suggests a bullish bias.
Use Reversal Markers: The indicator places small circles on the chart at points where the short-term EMA crosses the long-term EMA, signaling potential trend reversals.
Bar Color Customization:
You can choose to color the bars based on either the trend or the RSI bias in the indicator settings. In the Images below I have changed the colors to fit my personal style , Blue for uptrend and Pink for downtrend:
Trend-Based: Bars will reflect the trend direction (green for uptrend or in this case blue, red for downtrend or in this case pink).
RSI-Based: Bars will reflect RSI conditions (yellow for overbought, maroon for oversold).

Example Use Case Swing Traders:
For instance, if you're trading a 4-hour chart of USDCHF:
Set the trend timeframe to Daily and the RSI timeframe to 4-Hour.
Watch for background color shifts and reversal markers to determine trend direction.
Use RSI bias to time your entries and exits, especially around overbought/oversold levels.
Enable bar coloring to quickly see when conditions favor either trend continuation or reversal.
This indicator is particularly effective for swing traders and those who want to align their trades with higher timeframe trends while using momentum and RSI for entry and exit signals.
For Day Traders
Timeframe Selection:
Trend Timeframe: Set to a higher intraday timeframe such as the 1 or 2 Hour chart.
RSI Timeframe: Set to a shorter timeframe like 15-10 Minutes or 5-Minutes to capture finer details of intraday momentum shifts.
Using the Indicator:
Trend Identification: Day traders can use the background color to quickly identify whether the market is in a bullish or bearish trend on the 1-Hour chart. A green background suggests looking for long opportunities, while a red background suggests short opportunities.
Momentum Analysis: The histogram can help day traders gauge the strength of the current trend. For example, if the histogram is green and above zero, the trader may consider buying pullbacks within the trend.
RSI Bias: Monitor RSI levels on the lower timeframe (e.g., 15-Minutes). If the RSI crosses below 40, it indicates an oversold condition, potentially signaling a buying opportunity, especially if it aligns with a bullish trend on the higher timeframe.
Trade Execution:
Look for entries when the RSI shows a reversal or pullback in the direction of the higher timeframe trend.
Use the trend reversal markers to confirm potential intraday reversals, adding extra confidence to trade setups.
For Scalpers
Timeframe Selection:
Trend Timeframe: Set to a short intraday timeframe like 15-Minutes or 5-Minutes.
RSI Timeframe: Use an even shorter timeframe, such as 1-Minute, to capture rapid price movements.
Final Notes:
The "Trend and RSI Bias Fusion" indicator is a powerful tool that combines trend analysis, momentum assessment, and RSI insights into one cohesive package. By integrating these different aspects, the indicator helps traders navigate complex market environments with greater clarity and confidence. Customize the settings to fit your specific trading style and market and use it to stay ahead of market trends and potential reversals.

## 1. Introduction to the RSI and Moving Averages
### **1.1 Relative Strength Index (RSI)**
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator developed by J. Welles Wilder and introduced in his 1978 book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems." It is widely used in technical analysis to measure the speed and change of price movements.
**Purpose of RSI:**
- **Identify Overbought/Oversold Conditions:** RSI values range from 0 to 100. Traditionally, values above 70 are considered overbought, while values below 30 are considered oversold. These thresholds help traders identify potential reversal points in the market.
- **Trend Strength Measurement:** RSI also indicates the strength of a trend. High RSI values suggest strong bullish momentum, while low values indicate bearish momentum.
**Calculation of RSI:**
1. **Calculate the Average Gain and Loss:** Over a specified period (e.g., 14 days), calculate the average gain and loss.
2. **Compute the Relative Strength (RS):** RS is the ratio of average gain to average loss.
3. **RSI Formula:** RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
### **1.2 Moving Averages (MA)**
Moving Averages are used to smooth out price data and identify trends by filtering out short-term fluctuations. Two common types are:
**Simple Moving Average (SMA):** The average of prices over a specified number of periods.
**Exponential Moving Average (EMA):** A type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to recent price changes.
**Smoothed Moving Average (SMA):** Used to reduce the impact of volatility and provide a clearer view of the underlying trend. The RMA, or Running Moving Average, used in the USH script is similar to an EMA but based on the average of RSI values.
## 2. Detailed Breakdown of the Uptrick: RSI Histogram
### **2.1 Indicator Overview**
The Uptrick: RSI Histogram (USH) is a technical analysis tool that combines the RSI with a moving average to create a histogram that reflects momentum and trend strength.
**Key Components:**
- **RSI Calculation:** Determines the relative strength of price movements.
- **Moving Average Application:** Smooths the RSI values to provide a clearer trend indication.
- **Histogram Plotting:** Visualizes the deviation of the smoothed RSI from a neutral level.
### **2.2 Indicator Purpose**
The primary purpose of the USH is to provide a clear visual representation of the market's momentum and trend strength. It helps traders identify:
- **Bullish and Bearish Trends:** By showing how far the smoothed RSI is from the neutral 50 level.
- **Potential Reversal Points:** By highlighting changes in momentum.
### **2.3 Indicator Design**
**RSI Moving Average (RSI MA):** The RSI MA is a smoothed version of the RSI, calculated using a running moving average. This smooths out short-term fluctuations and provides a clearer indication of the underlying trend.
**Histogram Calculation:**
- **Neutral Level:** The histogram is plotted relative to the neutral level of 50. This level represents a balanced market where neither bulls nor bears have dominance.
- **Histogram Values:** The histogram bars show the difference between the RSI MA and the neutral level. Positive values indicate bullish momentum, while negative values indicate bearish momentum.
## 3. Calculation and Formula
### **3.1 RSI Calculation**
The RSI calculation involves:
1. **Average Gain and Loss:** Calculated over the specified length (e.g., 14 periods).
2. **Relative Strength (RS):** RS = Average Gain / Average Loss.
3. **RSI Formula:** RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS)).
### **3.2 Moving Average Calculation**
For the USH indicator, the RSI is smoothed using a running moving average (RMA). The RMA formula is similar to that of the EMA but is based on averaging RSI values over the specified length.
### **3.3 Histogram Calculation**
The histogram value is calculated as:
- **Histogram Value = RSI MA - 50**
**Plotting the Histogram:**
- **Positive Histogram Values:** Indicate that the RSI MA is above the neutral level, suggesting bullish momentum.
- **Negative Histogram Values:** Indicate that the RSI MA is below the neutral level, suggesting bearish momentum.
## 4. Visual Representation
### **4.1 Histogram Bars**
The histogram is plotted as bars on the chart:
- **Bullish Bars:** Colored green when the RSI MA is above 50.
- **Bearish Bars:** Colored red when the RSI MA is below 50.
### **4.2 Customization Options**
Traders can customize:
- **RSI Length:** Adjust the length of the RSI calculation to match their trading style.
- **Bull and Bear Colors:** Choose colors for histogram bars to enhance visual clarity.
### **4.3 Interpretation**
**Bullish Signal:** A histogram bar that moves from red to green indicates a potential shift to a bullish trend.
**Bearish Signal:** A histogram bar that moves from green to red indicates a potential shift to a bearish trend.
## 5. Customization and User Settings
### **5.1 Adjusting RSI Length**
The length parameter determines the number of periods over which the RSI is calculated and smoothed. Shorter lengths make the RSI more sensitive to price changes, while longer lengths provide a smoother view of trends.
### **5.2 Color Settings**
Traders can adjust:
- **Bull Color:** Color of histogram bars indicating bullish momentum.
- **Bear Color:** Color of histogram bars indicating bearish momentum.
**Customization Benefits:**
- **Visual Clarity:** Traders can choose colors that stand out against their chart’s background.
- **Personal Preference:** Adjust settings to match individual trading styles and preferences.
## 6. Trading Strategies and Applications
### **6.1 Trend Following**
**Identifying Entry Points:**
- **Bullish Entry:** When the histogram changes from red to green, it signals a potential entry point for long positions.
- **Bearish Entry:** When the histogram changes from green to red, it signals a potential entry point for short positions.
**Trend Confirmation:** The histogram helps confirm the strength of a trend. Strong, consistent green bars indicate robust bullish momentum, while strong, consistent red bars indicate robust bearish momentum.
### **6.2 Swing Trading**
**Momentum Analysis:**
- **Entry Signals:** Look for significant shifts in the histogram to time entries. A shift from bearish to bullish (red to green) indicates potential for upward movement.
- **Exit Signals:** A shift from bullish to bearish (green to red) suggests a potential weakening of the trend, signaling an exit or reversal point.
### **6.3 Range Trading**
**Market Conditions:**
- **Consolidation:** The histogram close to zero suggests a range-bound market. Traders can use this information to identify support and resistance levels.
- **Breakout Potential:** A significant move away from the neutral level may indicate a potential breakout from the range.
### **6.4 Risk Management**
**Stop-Loss Placement:**
- **Bullish Positions:** Place stop-loss orders below recent support levels when the histogram is green.
- **Bearish Positions:** Place stop-loss orders above recent resistance levels when the histogram is red.
**Position Sizing:** Adjust position sizes based on the strength of the histogram signals. Strong trends (indicated by larger histogram bars) may warrant larger positions, while weaker signals suggest smaller positions.
## 7. Risk Management
### **7.1 Importance of Risk Management**
Effective risk management is crucial for long-term trading success. It involves protecting capital, managing losses, and optimizing trade setups.
### **7.2 Using USH for Risk Management**
**Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Levels:**
- **Stop-Loss Orders:** Use the histogram to set stop-loss levels based on trend strength. For instance, place stops below support levels in bullish trends and above resistance levels in bearish trends.
- **Take-Profit Targets:** Adjust take-profit levels based on histogram changes. For example, lock in profits as the histogram starts to shift from green to red.
**Position Sizing:**
- **Trend Strength:** Scale position sizes based on the strength of histogram signals. Larger histogram bars indicate stronger trends, which may justify larger positions.
- **Volatility:** Consider market volatility and adjust position sizes to mitigate risk.
## 8. Case Studies and Examples
### **8.1 Example 1: Bullish Trend**
**Scenario:** A trader notices a transition from red to green histogram bars.
**Analysis:**
- **Entry Point:** The transition indicates a potential bullish trend. The trader decides to enter a long position.
- **Stop-Loss:** Set stop-loss below recent support levels.
- **Take-Profit:** Consider taking profits as the histogram moves back towards zero or turns red.
**Outcome:** The bullish trend continues, and the histogram remains green, providing a profitable trade setup.
### **8.2 Example 2: Bearish Trend**
**Scenario:** A trader observes a transition from green to red histogram bars.
**Analysis:**
- **Entry Point:** The transition suggests a potential
bearish trend. The trader decides to enter a short position.
- **Stop-Loss:** Set stop-loss above recent resistance levels.
- **Take-Profit:** Consider taking profits as the histogram approaches zero or shifts to green.
**Outcome:** The bearish trend continues, and the histogram remains red, resulting in a successful trade.

Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI [Elysian_Mind]Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI Indicator
Overview
The Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI Indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders seeking a unique approach to RSI-based signals. This indicator combines traditional RSI analysis with dynamic threshold calculation and optional Bollinger Bands to generate weighted buy and sell signals.
Features
Dynamic Thresholds: The indicator calculates dynamic thresholds based on market volatility, providing more adaptive signal generation.
Performance Analysis: Users can evaluate recent price performance to further refine signals. The script calculates the percentage change over a specified lookback period.
Bollinger Bands Integration: Optional integration of Bollinger Bands for additional confirmation and visualization of potential overbought or oversold conditions.
Customizable Settings: Traders can easily customize key parameters, including RSI length, SMA length, lookback bars, threshold multiplier, and Bollinger Bands parameters.
Weighted Signals: The script introduces a unique weighting mechanism for signals, reducing false positives and improving overall reliability.
Underlying Calculations and Methods
1. Dynamic Threshold Calculation:
The heart of the Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI Indicator lies in its ability to dynamically calculate thresholds based on multiple timeframes. Let's delve into the technical details:
RSI Calculation:
For each specified timeframe (1-hour, 4-hour, 1-day, 1-week), the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is calculated using the standard 14-period formula.
SMA of RSI:
The Simple Moving Average (SMA) is applied to each RSI, resulting in the smoothing of RSI values. This smoothed RSI becomes the basis for dynamic threshold calculations.
Dynamic Adjustment:
The dynamically adjusted threshold for each timeframe is computed by adding a constant value (5 in this case) to the respective SMA of RSI. This dynamic adjustment ensures that the threshold reflects changing market conditions.
2. Weighted Signal System:
To enhance the precision of buy and sell signals, the script introduces a weighted signal system. Here's how it works technically:
Signal Weighting:
The script assigns weights to buy and sell signals based on the crossover and crossunder events between RSI and the dynamically adjusted thresholds. If a crossover event occurs, the weight is set to 2; otherwise, it remains at 1.
Signal Combination:
The weighted buy and sell signals from different timeframes are combined using logical operations. A buy signal is generated if the product of weights from all timeframes is equal to 2, indicating alignment across timeframe.
3. Experimental Enhancements:
The Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI Indicator incorporates experimental features for educational exploration. While not intended as proven strategies, these features aim to offer users a glimpse into unconventional analysis. Some of these features include Performance Calculation, Volatility Calculation, Dynamic Threshold Calculation Using Volatility, Bollinger Bands Module, Weighted Signal System Incorporating New Features.
3.1 Performance Calculation:
The script calculates the percentage change in the price over a specified lookback period (variable lookbackBars). This provides a measure of recent performance.
pctChange(src, length) =>
change = src - src
pctChange = (change / src ) * 100
recentPerformance1H = pctChange(close, lookbackBars)
recentPerformance4H = pctChange(request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "240", close), lookbackBars)
recentPerformance1D = pctChange(request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "1D", close), lookbackBars)
3.2 Volatility Calculation:
The script computes the standard deviation of the closing price to measure volatility.
volatility1H = ta.stdev(close, 20)
volatility4H = ta.stdev(request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "240", close), 20)
volatility1D = ta.stdev(request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "1D", close), 20)
3.3 Dynamic Threshold Calculation Using Volatility:
The dynamic thresholds for RSI are calculated by adding a multiplier of volatility to 50.
dynamicThreshold1H = 50 + thresholdMultiplier * volatility1H
dynamicThreshold4H = 50 + thresholdMultiplier * volatility4H
dynamicThreshold1D = 50 + thresholdMultiplier * volatility1D
3.4 Bollinger Bands Module:
An additional module for Bollinger Bands is introduced, providing an option to enable or disable it.
// Additional Module: Bollinger Bands
bbLength = input(20, title="Bollinger Bands Length")
bbMultiplier = input(2.0, title="Bollinger Bands Multiplier")
upperBand = ta.sma(close, bbLength) + bbMultiplier * ta.stdev(close, bbLength)
lowerBand = ta.sma(close, bbLength) - bbMultiplier * ta.stdev(close, bbLength)
3.5 Weighted Signal System Incorporating New Features:
Buy and sell signals are generated based on the dynamic threshold, recent performance, and Bollinger Bands.
weightedBuySignal = rsi1H > dynamicThreshold1H and rsi4H > dynamicThreshold4H and rsi1D > dynamicThreshold1D and crossOver1H
weightedSellSignal = rsi1H < dynamicThreshold1H and rsi4H < dynamicThreshold4H and rsi1D < dynamicThreshold1D and crossUnder1H
These features collectively aim to provide users with a more comprehensive view of market dynamics by incorporating recent performance and volatility considerations into the RSI analysis. Users can experiment with these features to explore their impact on signal accuracy and overall indicator performance.
Indicator Placement for Enhanced Visibility
Overview
The design choice to position the "Advanced Dynamic Threshold RSI" indicator both on the main chart and beneath it has been carefully considered to address specific challenges related to visibility and scaling, providing users with an improved analytical experience.
Challenges Faced
1. Differing Scaling of RSI Results:
RSI values for different timeframes (1-hour, 4-hour, and 1-day) often exhibit different scales, especially in markets like gold.
Attempting to display these RSIs on the same chart can lead to visibility issues, as the scaling differences may cause certain RSI lines to appear compressed or nearly invisible.
2. Candlestick Visibility vs. RSI Scaling:
Balancing the visibility of candlestick patterns with that of RSI values posed a unique challenge.
A single pane for both candlesticks and RSIs may compromise the clarity of either, particularly when dealing with assets that exhibit distinct volatility patterns.
Design Solution
Placing the buy/sell signals above/below the candles helps to maintain a clear association between the signals and price movements.
By allocating RSIs beneath the main chart, users can better distinguish and analyze the RSI values without interference from candlestick scaling.
Doubling the scaling of the 1-hour RSI (displayed in blue) addresses visibility concerns and ensures that it remains discernible even when compared to the other two RSIs: 4-hour RSI (orange) and 1-day RSI (green).
Bollinger Bands Module is optional, but is turned on as default. When the module is turned on, the users can see the upper Bollinger Band (green) and lower Bollinger Band (red) on the main chart to gain more insight into price actions of the candles.
User Flexibility
This dual-placement approach offers users the flexibility to choose their preferred visualization:
The main chart provides a comprehensive view of buy/sell signals in relation to candlestick patterns.
The area beneath the chart accommodates a detailed examination of RSI values, each in its own timeframe, without compromising visibility.
The chosen design optimizes visibility and usability, addressing the unique challenges posed by differing RSI scales and ensuring users can make informed decisions based on both price action and RSI dynamics.

MTF RSI — Centered at Zero# 🌟 **MTF RSI — Centered at Zero（英語版 Description）**
**A multi–timeframe RSI tool designed for trend-filtered entries and safer reversal timing.
This script transforms both the current timeframe RSI and the 4H RSI by centering them at zero (RSI − 50), giving a clean, intuitive regime view.**
---
## 🔍 **Core Concept**
Traditional RSI fluctuates between 0–100, but the true trend cue lies in the relationship to 50.
By centering RSI at zero, you instantly see:
* **Above 0 → bullish pressure**
* **Below 0 → bearish pressure**
On top of this, the script plots the **4H RSI as a histogram**, allowing you to visually confirm whether the market is in a BUY-ONLY or SELL-ONLY environment before taking any signals.
---
## 🎯 **What This Script Helps You Do**
* Avoid dangerous counter-trend trades
* Identify high-quality reversal points only when aligned with the 4H trend
* Enter pullbacks or bounces with noticeably higher accuracy
* Visually detect regime strength and extreme conditions (RSI >70 / <30)
Even during aggressive trending markets, the combined filter
**(4H regime + local RSI extreme + initial reversal signal)**
keeps you only in high-probability opportunities.
---
## 💡 **Color Logic**
### Vertical stripe (per-bar):
* 🔴 **Overbought (RSI >70)** — red / pink
* 🔵 **Oversold (RSI <30)** — blue
* Colors become stronger when the 4H and current RSI extremes align
* Option to show history or only the most recent bar
### Histogram (4H RSI – 50):
* Pink column above 0 → bullish bias
* Blue column below 0 → bearish bias
### Pivot Signals:
* 🟠 **Buy Signal**: RSI crosses up from local weakness *AND* 4H is BUY-ONLY
* 🔴 **Sell Signal**: RSI crosses down from local strength *AND* 4H is SELL-ONLY
These signals often align with classical **Granville #4 / #8** (deep pullback reversals).
---
## ⏱️ **Timeframe Usage**
Works well on:
* **5m** for active traders
* **15m** for conservative entries
* **1H** for swing confirmation
All of them rely on the same principle:
**“Let the 4H trend guide the direction, and take only high-probability reversals.”**
---
## 🚀 **Best Use Case**
Enter only when:
1. 4H histogram clearly shows BUY-ONLY or SELL-ONLY
2. Local RSI hits extreme zones
3. A bounce or breakdown occurs
4. Your stop-loss is clearly defined beneath the reversal structure
This combination creates consistently **small losses, larger wins** —
ideal for systematic short-term trading.

# 🌟 **MTF RSI — Centered at Zero（日本語版 Description）**
**RSIを 50 でセンタリングすることで、
“相場が上に傾いているのか / 下に傾いているのか” を一瞬で判別できる、
マルチタイムフレーム対応のRSIトレンド・フィルタースクリプトです。**
---
## 🔍 **スクリプトの核心**
RSIの本質は「50を境に強弱が決まる」ことにあります。
そこで **RSI − 50** を使い、
* **0より上 → 上昇バイアス**
* **0より下 → 下降バイアス**
となるように変換しています。
4時間足RSIも同様にゼロ基準でヒストグラム化するため、
**いま市場の“支配方向（BUY ONLY / SELL ONLY）”がひと目で分かる仕様** にしています。
---
## 🎯 **このスクリプトが解決する課題**
* トレンドに逆らった“危険な逆張り”を避けられる
* 4時間足トレンドと一致したときだけ反転シグナルが出る
* 押し目買い・戻り売りの精度が高まる
* 極端ゾーン（RSI >70 / <30）を自動で縦ストライプ表示
特に、
**4時間足のトレンド + 極端ゾーン + 初動シグナル（RSI反転）**
のセットアップは実戦での成功率が非常に高いです。
---
## 🎨 **カラーの意味**
### ◆ 縦ストライプ（バー単位）
* 🔴 RSI > 70 → オーバーボート（赤/ピンク）
* 🔵 RSI < 30 → オーバーソールド（青）
* 4Hも同方向の極端であれば濃く表示
* 「過去の塗りを消すモード」搭載（今バーのみ表示）
### ◆ 4時間足ヒストグラム（RSI − 50）
* ピンク：上昇圧力（BUY ONLY に近い）
* 青：下降圧力（SELL ONLY に近い）
### ◆ 反転シグナル
* 🟠 BUY：RSIが弱い領域から上抜け + 4H BUY ONLY
* 🔴 SELL：RSIが強すぎる領域から下抜け + 4H SELL ONLY
これはグランビルの4番/8番（深い押し・戻りの反転）にも一致します。
---
## 🕒 **推奨タイムフレーム**
* 5分足：素早くエントリーしたい人
* 15分足：最も安定
* 1時間足：ゆったり目線のスイング向け
---
## 🚀 **ベストな使い方**
以下の条件が揃ったとき、統計的に最も強いエントリーになります：
1. 4時間足RSIヒストグラムが BUY ONLY / SELL ONLY
2. 15分足RSIが極端ゾーンに到達

Power RSI Segment Runner [CHE] Power RSI Segment Runner — Tracks RSI momentum across higher timeframe segments to detect directional switches for trend confirmation.
Summary
This indicator calculates a running Relative Strength Index adapted to segments defined by changes in a higher timeframe, such as daily closes, providing a smoothed view of momentum within each period. It distinguishes between completed segments, which fix the final RSI value, and ongoing ones, which update in real time with an exponential moving average filter. Directional switches between bullish and bearish momentum trigger visual alerts, including overlay lines and emojis, while a compact table displays current trend strength as a progress bar. This segmented approach reduces noise from intra-period fluctuations, offering clearer signals for trend persistence compared to standard RSI on lower timeframes.
Motivation: Why this design?
Standard RSI often generates erratic signals in choppy markets due to constant recalculation over fixed lookback periods, leading to false reversals that mislead traders during range-bound or volatile phases. By resetting the RSI accumulation at higher timeframe boundaries, this indicator aligns momentum assessment with broader market cycles, capturing sustained directional bias more reliably. It addresses the gap between short-term noise and long-term trends, helping users filter entries without over-relying on absolute overbought or oversold thresholds.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
- Baseline Reference: Diverges from the classic Wilder RSI, which uses a fixed-length exponential moving average of gains and losses across all bars.
- Architecture Differences:
- Segments momentum resets at higher timeframe changes, isolating calculations per period instead of continuous history.
- Employs persistent sums for ups and downs within segments, with on-the-fly RSI derivation and EMA smoothing.
- Integrates switch detection logic that clears prior visuals on reversal, preventing clutter from outdated alerts.
- Adds overlay projections like horizontal price lines and dynamic percent change trackers for immediate trade context.
- Practical Effect: Charts show discrete RSI endpoints for past segments alongside a curved running trace, making momentum evolution visually intuitive. Switches appear as clean, extendable overlays, reducing alert fatigue and highlighting only confirmed directional shifts, which aids in avoiding whipsaws during minor pullbacks.
How it works (technical)
The indicator begins by detecting changes in the specified higher timeframe, such as a new daily bar, to define segment boundaries. At each boundary, it finalizes the prior segment's RSI by summing positive and negative price changes over that period and derives the value from the ratio of those sums, then applies an exponential moving average for smoothing. Within the active segment, it accumulates ongoing ups and downs from price changes relative to the source, recalculating the running RSI similarly and smoothing it with the same EMA length.
Points for the running RSI are collected into an array starting from the segment's onset, forming a curved polyline once sufficient bars accumulate. Comparisons between the running RSI and the last completed segment's value determine the current direction as long, short, or neutral, with switches triggering deletions of old visuals and creation of new ones: a label at the RSI pane, a vertical dashed line across the RSI range, an emoji positioned via ATR offset on the price chart, a solid horizontal line at the switch price, a dashed line tracking current close, and a midpoint label for percent change from the switch.
Initialization occurs on the first bar by resetting accumulators, and visualization gates behind a minimum bar count since the segment start to avoid early instability. The trend strength table builds vertically with filled cells proportional to the rounded RSI value, colored by direction. All drawing objects update or extend on subsequent bars to reflect live progress.
Parameter Guide
EMA Length — Controls the smoothing applied to the running RSI; higher values increase lag but reduce noise. Default: 10. Trade-offs: Shorter settings heighten sensitivity for fast markets but risk more false switches; longer ones suit trending conditions for stability.
Source — Selects the price data for change calculations, typically close for standard momentum. Default: close. Trade-offs: Open or high/low may emphasize gaps, altering segment intensity.
Segment Timeframe — Defines the higher timeframe for segment resets, like daily for intraday charts. Default: D. Trade-offs: Shorter frames create more frequent but shorter segments; longer ones align with major cycles but delay resets.
Overbought Level — Sets the upper threshold for potential overbought conditions (currently unused in visuals). Default: 70. Trade-offs: Adjust for asset volatility; higher values delay bearish warnings.
Oversold Level — Sets the lower threshold for potential oversold conditions (currently unused in visuals). Default: 30. Trade-offs: Lower values permit deeper dips before signaling bullish potential.
Show Completed Label — Toggles labels at segment ends displaying final RSI. Default: true. Trade-offs: Enables historical review but can crowd charts on dense timeframes.
Plot Running Segment — Enables the curved polyline for live RSI trace. Default: true. Trade-offs: Visualizes intra-segment flow; disable for cleaner panes.
Running RSI as Label — Displays current running RSI as a forward-projected label on the last bar. Default: false. Trade-offs: Useful for quick reads; may overlap in tight scales.
Show Switch Label — Activates RSI pane labels on directional switches. Default: true. Trade-offs: Provides context; omit to minimize pane clutter.
Show Switch Line (RSI) — Draws vertical dashed lines across the RSI range at switches. Default: true. Trade-offs: Marks reversal bars clearly; extends both ways for reference.
Show Solid Overlay Line — Projects a horizontal line from switch price forward. Default: true. Trade-offs: Acts as dynamic support/resistance; wider lines enhance visibility.
Show Dashed Overlay Line — Tracks a dashed line from switch to current close. Default: true. Trade-offs: Shows price deviation; thinner for subtlety.
Show Percent Change Label — Midpoint label tracking percent move from switch. Default: true. Trade-offs: Quantifies progress; centers dynamically.
Show Trend Strength Table — Displays right-side table with direction header and RSI bar. Default: true. Trade-offs: Instant strength gauge; fixed position avoids overlap.
Activate Visualization After N Bars — Delays signals until this many bars into a segment. Default: 3. Trade-offs: Filters immature readings; higher values miss early momentum.
Segment End Label — Color for completed RSI labels. Default: 7E57C2. Trade-offs: Purple tones for finality.
Running RSI — Color for polyline and running elements. Default: yellow. Trade-offs: Bright for live tracking.
Long — Color for bullish switch visuals. Default: green. Trade-offs: Standard for uptrends.
Short — Color for bearish switch visuals. Default: red. Trade-offs: Standard for downtrends.
Solid Line Width — Thickness of horizontal overlay line. Default: 2. Trade-offs: Bolder for emphasis on key levels.
Dashed Line Width — Thickness of tracking and vertical lines. Default: 1. Trade-offs: Finer to avoid dominance.
Reading & Interpretation
Completed segment RSIs appear as static points or labels in purple, indicating the fixed momentum at period close—values drifting toward the upper half suggest building strength, while lower half implies weakness. The yellow curved polyline traces the live smoothed RSI within the current segment, rising for accumulating gains and falling for losses. Directional labels and lines in green or red flag switches: green for running momentum exceeding the prior segment's, signaling potential uptrend continuation; red for the opposite.
The right table's header colors green for long, red for short, or gray for neutral/wait, with filled purple bars scaling from bottom (low RSI) to top (high), topped by the numeric value. Overlay elements project from switch bars: the solid green/red line as a price anchor, dashed tracker showing pullback extent, and percent label quantifying deviation—positive for alignment with direction, negative for counter-moves. Emojis (up arrow for long, down for short) float above/below price via ATR spacing for quick chart scans.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
- Trend Following: Enter long on green switch confirmation after a higher high in structure; filter with table strength above midpoint for conviction. Pair with volume surge for added weight.
- Exits/Stops: Trail stops to the solid overlay line on pullbacks; exit if percent change reverses beyond 2 percent against direction. Use wait bars to confirm without chasing.
- Multi-Asset/Multi-TF: Defaults suit forex/stocks on 1H-4H with daily segments; for crypto, shorten EMA to 5 for volatility. Scale segment TF to weekly for daily charts across indices.
- Combinations: Overlay on EMA clouds for confluence—switch aligning with cloud break strengthens signal. Add volatility filters like ATR bands to debounce in low-volume regimes.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Signals confirm on bar close within segments, with running polyline updating live but gated by minimum bars to prevent flicker. Higher timeframe changes may introduce minor repaints on timeframe switches, mitigated by relying on confirmed HTF closes rather than intrabar peeks. Resource limits cap at 500 labels/lines and 50 polylines, pruning old objects on switches to stay efficient; no explicit loops, but array growth ties to segment length—suitable for up to 500-bar histories without lag.
Known limits include delayed visualization in short segments and insensitivity to overbought/oversold levels, as thresholds are inputted but not actively visualized. Gaps in source data reset accumulators prematurely, potentially skewing early RSI.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with EMA length 10, daily segments, and 3-bar wait for balanced responsiveness on hourly charts. For excessive switches in ranging markets, increase wait bars to 5 or EMA to 14 to dampen noise. If signals lag in trends, drop EMA to 5 and use 1H segments. For stable assets like indices, widen to weekly segments; tune colors for dark/light themes without altering logic.

Logit RSI [AdaptiveRSI]The traditional 0–100 RSI scale makes statistical overlays, such as Bollinger Bands or even moving averages, technically invalid. This script solves this issue by placing RSI on an unbounded, continuous scale, enabling these tools to work as intended.
The Logit function takes bounded data, such as RSI values ranging from 0 to 100, and maps them onto an unbounded scale ranging from negative infinity (−∞) to positive infinity (+∞).
An RSI reading of 50 becomes 0 on the Logit scale, indicating a balanced market. Readings above 50 map to positive Logit values (price above Wilder’s EMA / RSI above 50), while readings below 50 map to negative values (price below Wilder’s EMA / RSI below 50).
For the detailed formula, which calculates RSI as a scaled distance from Wilder’s EMA, check the RSI
: alternative derivation script.
The main issue with the 0–100 RSI scale is that different lookback periods produce very different distributions of RSI values. The histograms below illustrate how often RSIs of various lengths spend time within each 5-point range.
On RSI(2), the tallest bars appear at the edges (0–5 and 95–100), meaning short-term RSI spends most of its time at the extremes. For longer lookbacks, the bars cluster around the center and rarely reach 70 or 30.
This behavior makes it difficult to generalize the two most common RSI techniques:
Fixed 70/30 thresholds: These overbought and oversold levels only make sense for short- or mid-range lookbacks (around the low teens). For very short periods, RSI spends most of its time above or below these levels, while for long-term lookbacks, RSI rarely reaches them.
Bollinger Bands (±2 standard deviations): When applied directly to RSI, the bands often extend beyond the 0–100 limits (especially for short-term lookbacks) making them mathematically invalid. While the issue is less visible on longer settings, it remains conceptually incorrect.
To address this, we apply the Logit Transform :
Logit RSI = LN(RSI / (100 − RSI))
The transformed data fits a smooth bell-shaped curve, allowing statistical tools like Bollinger Bands to function properly for the first time.
Why Logit RSI Matters:
Makes RSI statistically consistent across all lookback periods.
Greatly improves the visual clarity of short-term RSIs
Allows proper use of volatility tools (like Bollinger Bands) on RSI.
Replaces arbitrary 70/30 levels with data-driven thresholds.
Simplifies RSI interpretation for both short- and long-term analysis.
INPUTS:
RSI Length — set the RSI lookback period used in calculations.
RSI Type — choose between Regular RSI or Logit RSI .
Plot Bollinger Bands — ON/OFF toggle to overlay statistical envelopes around RSI or Logit RSI.
SMA and Standard Deviation Length — defines the lookback period for both the SMA (Bollinger Bands midline) and Standard Deviation calculations.
Standard Deviation Multiplier — controls the width of the Bollinger Bands (e.g., 2.0 for ±2σ).
While simple, the Logit transformation represents an unexplored yet powerful mathematically grounded improvement to the classic RSI.
It offers traders a structured, intuitive, and statistically consistent way to use RSI across all timeframes.
I welcome your feedback, suggestions, and code improvements—especially regarding performance and efficiency. Your insights are greatly appreciated.
Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI [BOSWaves]Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI – Next-Level Momentum Smoothing & Signal Precision
Overview
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI transforms the classic Relative Strength Index into a robust, lag-minimized momentum oscillator through Holt-Winters triple exponential smoothing. By modeling the level, trend, and cyclical behavior of the RSI series, this indicator delivers smoother, more responsive signals that highlight overbought/oversold conditions, momentum shifts, and high-conviction trading setups without cluttering the chart with noise.
Unlike traditional RSI, which reacts to historical data and produces frequent whipsaws, the Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI filters transient price fluctuations, enabling traders to detect emerging momentum and potential reversal zones earlier.
Theoretical Foundation
The traditional RSI measures relative strength by comparing average gains and losses, but suffers from:
Lag in trend recognition : Signals often arrive after momentum has shifted.
Noise sensitivity : High-frequency price movements generate unreliable crossovers.
Limited insight into structural market shifts : Standard RSI cannot contextualize cyclical or momentum patterns.
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI addresses these limitations by applying triple exponential smoothing directly to the RSI series. This decomposes the series into:
Level (Lₜ) : Represents the smoothed central tendency of RSI.
Trend (Tₜ) : Captures rate-of-change in smoothed momentum.
Seasonal Component (Sₜ) : Models short-term cyclical deviations in momentum.
By incorporating these elements, the oscillator produces smoothed RSI values that react faster to emerging trends while suppressing erratic noise. Its internal forecast is mathematical, influencing the smoothed RSI output and signals, rather than being directly plotted.
How It Works
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI builds its signal framework through several layers:
1. Base RSI Calculation
Computes standard RSI over the selected period as the primary momentum input.
2. Triple Exponential Smoothing (Holt-Winters)
The RSI is smoothed recursively to extract underlying momentum structure:
Level, trend, and seasonal components are combined to produce a smoothed RSI.
This internal smoothing reduces lag and enhances signal reliability.
3. Momentum Analysis
Short-term momentum shifts are tracked via a moving average of the smoothed RSI, highlighting acceleration or deceleration in directional strength.
4. Volume Confirmation (Optional)
Buy/sell signals can be filtered through a configurable volume threshold, ensuring only high-conviction moves trigger alerts.
5. Visual Output
Colored Candles : Represent overbought (red), oversold (green), or neutral (yellow) conditions.
Oscillator Panel : Plots the smoothed RSI with dynamic color coding for immediate trend context.
Signals : Triangular markers indicate bullish or bearish setups, with stronger signals flagged in extreme zones.
Interpretation
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI provides a multi-dimensional perspective on price action:
Trend Strength : Smoothed RSI slope and color coding reflect the direction and momentum intensity.
Momentum Shifts : Rapid changes in the smoothed RSI indicate emerging strength or weakness.
Overbought/Oversold Zones : Highlight areas where price is stretched relative to recent momentum.
High-Conviction Signals : Combined with volume filtering, markers indicate optimal entries/exits.
Cycle Awareness : Smoothing reveals structural patterns, helping traders avoid reacting to noise.
By combining these elements, traders gain early insight into market structure and momentum without relying on raw, lag-prone RSI data.
Strategy Integration
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI can be applied across trading styles:
Trend Following
Enter when RSI is aligned with price momentum and color-coded signals confirm trend direction.
Strong slope in the smoothed RSI signals trend continuation.
Reversal Trading
Look for RSI extremes with momentum shifts and strong signal markers.
Compression in oscillator values often precedes reversal setups.
Breakout Detection
Oscillator flattening in neutral zones followed by directional expansion indicates potential breakout conditions.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Higher timeframes provide directional bias; lower timeframes refine entry timing using smoothed RSI dynamics.
Technical Implementation Details
Input Source : Close, open, high, low, or price.
Smoothing : Holt-Winters triple exponential smoothing applied to RSI.
Parameters :
Level (α) : Controls smoothing of RSI.
Trend (β) : Adjusts responsiveness to momentum changes.
Seasonal Length : Defines cycles for short-term adjustments.
Delta Smoothing : Reduces choppiness in smoothed RSI difference.
Outputs :
Smoothed RSI
Colored candles and oscillator panel
Buy/Sell signal markers (with optional strength filtering)
Volume Filtering : Optional threshold to confirm signals.
Optimal Application Parameters
Asset-Specific Guidance:
Forex : Use moderate smoothing (α, β) to capture medium-term momentum swings while filtering minor price noise. Works best when combined with volume or volatility filters.
Equities : Balance responsiveness and smoothness to identify sustained sector momentum or rotational shifts; ideal for capturing clean directional transitions.
Cryptocurrency : Increase smoothing parameters slightly to stabilize RSI during extreme volatility; optional volume confirmation can help filter false signals.
Futures/Indices : Lower smoothing sensitivity emphasizes macro momentum and structural trend durability over short-term fluctuations.
Timeframe Optimization:
Scalping (1-5m) : Use higher sensitivity (lower smoothing factors) to react quickly to micro-momentum reversals.
Intraday (15m-1h) : Balance smoothing and responsiveness for detecting short-term acceleration and exhaustion zones.
Swing (4h-Daily) : Apply moderate smoothing to reveal underlying directional persistence and cyclical reversals.
Position (Daily-Weekly) : Use stronger smoothing to isolate dominant momentum trends and filter temporary pullbacks.
Integration Guidelines
Combine with trend filters (EMAs, SuperSmoother MA, ATR-based tools) for confirmation.
Use volume and signal strength markers to filter low-conviction trades.
Slope, color, and signal alignment can guide entry, stop placement, and scaling.
Disclaimer
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI is a technical analysis tool, not a guaranteed profit system. Effectiveness depends on proper settings, market structure, and disciplined risk management. Always backtest before live trading.
MULTI-CONDITION RSI SIGNAL GENERATOR═══════════════════════════════════════════════
MULTI-CONDITION RSI SIGNAL GENERATOR
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
OVERVIEW:
This indicator generates trading signals based on Relative Strength Index (RSI) movements with multiple confirmation layers designed to filter false signals and identify high-probability reversal opportunities.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
WHAT MAKES THIS ORIGINAL:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Unlike basic RSI indicators that simply plot overbought/oversold crossovers, this system combines FOUR distinct confirmation mechanisms:
1. PERSISTENCE FILTERING - Requires RSI to remain in extreme zones for a minimum duration
2. LOOKBACK VALIDATION - Verifies recent extreme zone visits before signaling
3. DIVERGENCE DETECTION - Identifies price/RSI divergence for stronger signals
4. MOMENTUM CONFIRMATION - Provides trend-continuation entries via midline crosses
This multi-layered approach significantly reduces whipsaw trades that plague simple RSI crossover systems.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS (TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY):
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
STEP 1: RSI CALCULATION
- Standard RSI calculation using user-defined period (default: 14)
- Monitors two extreme zones: Overbought (default: 70) and Oversold (default: 30)
STEP 2: PERSISTENCE FILTERING
The script counts how many bars RSI has spent in extreme zones within the lookback period:
- For overbought signals: Counts bars where RSI > 70
- For oversold signals: Counts bars where RSI < 30
- Signal only triggers if count >= Minimum Duration (default: 4 bars)
This filters out brief spikes that immediately reverse, focusing on sustained extreme conditions that are more likely to lead to genuine reversals.
STEP 3: LOOKBACK VALIDATION
- Checks if RSI reached extreme zones within the Lookback Bars period (default: 20)
- Uses ta.highest() and ta.lowest() functions to verify recent extremes
- Ensures we're trading reversals from meaningful extremes, not random crossovers
STEP 4: BASIC SIGNAL GENERATION
- BUY SIGNAL: RSI crosses above the oversold level (30) after meeting persistence and lookback conditions
- SELL SIGNAL: RSI crosses below the overbought level (70) after meeting persistence and lookback conditions
STEP 5: DIVERGENCE DETECTION
The script identifies two types of divergence over the Divergence Lookback period (default: 5 bars):
A) BULLISH DIVERGENCE (indicates potential upward reversal):
- Price makes a lower low (current low < previous low)
- RSI makes a higher low (current RSI low > previous RSI low)
- Suggests weakening downward momentum
B) BEARISH DIVERGENCE (indicates potential downward reversal):
- Price makes a higher high (current high > previous high)
- RSI makes a lower high (current RSI high < previous RSI high)
- Suggests weakening upward momentum
STEP 6: STRONG SIGNAL CONFIRMATION
- STRONG BUY: Basic buy signal + bullish divergence present
- STRONG SELL: Basic sell signal + bearish divergence present
- These represent the highest-probability setups
STEP 7: MOMENTUM SIGNALS (OPTIONAL)
- MOMENTUM BUY: RSI crosses above 50 after being oversold (trend continuation)
- MOMENTUM SELL: RSI crosses below 50 after being overbought (trend continuation)
- Smaller signals for traders who want trend-following entries
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
SIGNAL TYPES AND VISUAL INDICATORS:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════

═══════════════════════════════════════════════
PARAMETER SETTINGS:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
1. OVERBOUGHT LEVEL (default: 70, range: 50-90)
- Higher values = fewer but stronger overbought signals
- Lower values = more sensitive to overbought conditions
- Recommended: 70 for standard markets, 80 for crypto/volatile assets
2. OVERSOLD LEVEL (default: 30, range: 10-50)
- Lower values = fewer but stronger oversold signals
- Higher values = more sensitive to oversold conditions
- Recommended: 30 for standard markets, 20 for crypto/volatile assets
3. RSI PERIOD (default: 14, range: 2-50)
- Standard RSI calculation period
- Lower = more sensitive/faster signals
- Higher = smoother/slower signals
- Recommended: 14 (industry standard)
4. MINIMUM DURATION (default: 4, range: 1-20)
- Required bars in extreme zone before signal
- Higher values = fewer signals but better quality
- Lower values = more signals but more false positives
- Recommended: 3-5 for day trading, 5-10 for swing trading
5. LOOKBACK BARS (default: 20, range: 5-100)
- How far back to check for extreme zone visits
- Should match your typical trading timeframe
- Recommended: 20 for intraday, 50 for daily charts
6. DIVERGENCE LOOKBACK (default: 5, range: 2-20)
- Period for comparing price/RSI highs and lows
- Lower values = more frequent divergence signals
- Higher values = more significant divergences
- Recommended: 5-10 depending on timeframe
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW TO USE THIS INDICATOR:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
RECOMMENDED TRADING APPROACH:
1. PRIMARY ENTRIES: Focus on Strong Buy/Sell signals (blue/purple triangles)
- These have the highest win rate due to divergence confirmation
- Wait for price action confirmation (support/resistance, candlestick patterns)
2. SECONDARY ENTRIES: Regular Buy/Sell signals (green/red triangles)
- Use these when Strong signals are infrequent
- Require additional confirmation from other indicators or chart patterns
3. TREND CONTINUATION: Momentum signals (small circles)
- Best used when overall trend is clear
- Not recommended for reversal trading
4. FILTER TRADES: Use background shading as context
- Be cautious entering longs when background is red (overbought)
- Be cautious entering shorts when background is green (oversold)
RISK MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES:
- Never risk more than 2-5% of capital per trade
- Use stop losses below recent swing lows (buys) or above swing highs (sells)
- Target at least 1.5:1 reward-to-risk ratio
- Consider position sizing based on signal strength
TIMEFRAME RECOMMENDATIONS:
- 15min - 1hour: Day trading with adjusted parameters (lower minimum duration)
- 4hour - Daily: Swing trading with default parameters
- Weekly: Position trading with increased lookback periods
COMPLEMENTARY TOOLS:
This indicator works best when combined with:
- Support and resistance levels
- Trend indicators (moving averages, trend lines)
- Volume analysis
- Price action patterns (engulfing candles, pin bars)

Tracks RSI Momentum Loss and Gain to Generate Signals
-------------------------------------------------------
WHAT THIS INDICATOR CALCULATES
This indicator attempts to identify RSI directional changes (RSI momentum) using a step-by-step "ladder" method. It reads RSI(14) from the next higher timeframe relative to your chart. On a 15-minute chart, it uses 1-hour RSI. On a 5-minute chart, it uses 15-minute RSI, and so on.
How the ladder logic works:
The indicator doesn't track RSI all the time. It only starts tracking when RSI crosses into potentially extreme territory (these are called "events" in the code):
For sell signals : when RSI crosses above a dynamic upper threshold (typically between 60-80, calculated as the 90th percentile of recent RSI)
For buy signals : when RSI crosses below a dynamic lower threshold (typically between 20-40, calculated as the 10th percentile of recent RSI)
Once tracking begins, RSI movement is divided into 2-point steps (boxes). The indicator counts how many boxes RSI climbs or falls.
A signal generates only when:
RSI reverses direction by at least 2 boxes (4 RSI points) from its extreme
RSI holds that reversal for 3 consecutive confirmed bars
Example: Dynamic threshold is at 68. RSI crosses above 68 → tracking starts. RSI climbs to 76 (4 boxes up). Then it drops back to 72 and stays below that level for 3 bars → sell signal prints. The buy signal works the same way in reverse.
-------------------------------------------------------
SIGNAL GENERATION METHODOLOGY
Sell Signal (Red Triangle)
RSI crosses above a dynamic start level (calculated as the 90th percentile of the last 1000 bars, constrained between 60-80)
Indicator tracks upward progression in 2-point boxes
RSI reverses and drops below a boundary 2 boxes below the highest box reached
RSI remains below that boundary for 3 confirmed bars
Red triangle plots above price
Reset condition: RSI returns below 50
Buy Signal (Green Triangle)
RSI crosses below a dynamic start level (10th percentile of last 1000 bars, constrained between 20-40)
Indicator tracks downward progression in 2-point boxes
RSI reverses and rises above a boundary 2 boxes above the lowest box reached
RSI remains above that boundary for 3 confirmed bars
Green triangle plots below price
Reset condition: RSI returns above 50
-------------------------------------------------------
TECHNICAL PARAMETERS
All parameters are hardcoded:
RSI Period: 14
Box Size: 2 RSI points
Reversal Threshold: 2 boxes (4 RSI points)
Confirmation Period: 3 bars
Reset Level: RSI 50
Sell Start Range: 60-80 (dynamic)
Buy Start Range: 20-40 (dynamic)
Lookback for Percentile: 1000 bars
Note: Since the code is open source, users can modify these hardcoded values directly in the script to adjust sensitivity. For example, increasing the confirmation period from 3 to 5 bars will produce fewer but more conservative signals. Decreasing the box size from 2 to 1 will make the indicator more responsive to smaller RSI movements.
-------------------------------------------------------
KEY FEATURES
Automatic Higher Timeframe RSI
When applied to a 15-minute chart, the indicator automatically reads 1-hour RSI data. This is the next standard timeframe above 15 minutes in the indicator's logic.
Dynamic Adaptive Start Levels
Sell signals use the 90th percentile of RSI over the last 1000 bars, constrained between 60-80. Buy signals use the 10th percentile, constrained between 20-40. These thresholds recalculate on each bar based on recent data.
Ladder Box System
RSI movements are tracked in 2-point boxes. The indicator requires a 2-box reversal followed by 3 consecutive bars maintaining that reversal before generating a signal.
Dual Signal Output
Red down-triangles plot above price when the sell signal conditions are met. Green up-triangles plot below the price when buy signal conditions are met.
-------------------------------------------------------
REPAINTING
This indicator does not repaint. All calculations use "barstate.isconfirmed" to ensure signals appear only on closed bars. The request.security() call uses lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off to prevent forward-looking bias.
-------------------------------------------------------
INTENDED CHART TIMEFRAME
This indicator is designed for use on 15-minute charts. The visual reminder table at the top of the chart indicates this requirement.
On a 15-minute chart:
RSI data comes from the 1-hour timeframe
Signals reflect 1-hour momentum shifts
3-bar confirmation equals 45 minutes of price action
Using it on other timeframes will change the higher timeframe RSI source and may produce different behavior.
-------------------------------------------------------
WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES NOT DO
Does not predict future price movements
Does not provide entry or exit advice
Does not guarantee profitable trades
Does not replace comprehensive technical analysis
Does not account for fundamental factors, news events, or market structure
Does not adapt to all market conditions equally
-------------------------------------------------------
EDUCATIONAL USE
This indicator demonstrates one approach to momentum reversal detection using:
Multi-timeframe analysis
Adaptive thresholds via percentile calculation

Synthetic Point & Figure on RSIHere is a detailed description and user guide for the Synthetic Point & Figure RSI indicator, including how to use it for long and short trade considerations:
*
## Synthetic Point & Figure RSI Indicator – User Guide
### What It Is
This indicator applies classic Point & Figure (P&F) charting logic to the Relative Strength Index (RSI) instead of price. It transforms the RSI into synthetic “P&F candles” that filter out noise and highlight significant momentum moves and reversals based on configurable box size and reversal settings.
### How It Works
- The RSI is calculated normally over the selected length.
- The P&F engine tracks movements in the RSI above or below a defined “box size,” creating columns that switch direction only after a larger reversal.
- The synthetic candles connect these filtered RSI values visually, reducing false noise and emphasizing strong RSI trends.
- Optional EMA and SMA overlays on the synthetic P&F RSI allow smoother trend signals.
- Reference RSI levels at 33, 40, 50, 60, and 66 provide further context for momentum strength.
### How to Use for Trading
#### Long (Buy) Considerations
- The synthetic P&F RSI candle direction flips to *up (green candles)* indicating strength in momentum.
- Look for the RSI P&F value moving above the *40 or 50 level*, suggesting increasing bullish momentum.
- Confirmation is stronger if the synthetic RSI is above the EMA or SMA overlays.
- Ideal entries are after a reversal from a synthetic P&F downtrend (red candles) to an uptrend (green candles) near or above these levels.
#### Short (Sell) Considerations
- The candle direction flips to *down (red candles)*, showing weakening momentum or bearish reversal.
- Monitor if the synthetic RSI falls below the *60 or 50 level*, signaling momentum loss.
- Confirm bearish bias if the price is below the EMA or SMA overlays.
- Exit or short positions are signaled when the synthetic candle reverses from green to red near or below these threshold levels.
### Important RSI Levels to Watch
- *Level 33*: Lower bound indicating deep oversold conditions.
- *Level 40*: Early bullish zone suggesting momentum improvement.
- *Level 50*: Neutral midpoint; crossing above often signals bullish strength, below signals weakness.
- *Level 60*: Advanced bullish momentum; breaking below signals potential reversal.
- *Level 66*: Strong overbought area warning of possible pullback.
### Tips
- Use in conjunction with price action analysis and other volume/trend indicators for higher conviction.
- Adjust box size and reversal settings based on instrument volatility and timeframe for ideal filtering.
- The P&F RSI is best for identifying sustained momentum trends and avoiding false RSI whipsaws.
- Combine this indicator’s signals with stop-loss and risk management strategies.

MTF RSI MA System + Adaptive BandsMTF RSI MA System + Adaptive Bands
Overview
MTF RSI MA System + Adaptive Bands is a highly customizable Pine Script indicator for traders seeking a versatile tool for multi-timeframe (MTF) analysis. Unlike traditional RSI, it focuses on the Moving Average of RSI (RSI MA), delivering smoother and more flexible trading signals. The main screenshot displays the indicator in two panels to showcase its diverse capabilities.
Important: Timeframes do not adjust automatically – users must manually set them to match the chart’s timeframe.
Features
Core Component: Built around RSI MA, not raw RSI, for smoother trend signals.
Multi-Timeframe: Analyze RSI MA across three customizable timeframes (default: 4H, 8H, 12H).
Adaptive Bands: Three band calculation methods (Fixed, Percent, StdDev) for dynamic signals.
Flexible Signals: Generated via RSI MA crossovers, band interactions, or directional alignment across timeframes.
Background Coloring: Highlights when RSI MAs across timeframes move in the same direction, aiding trend confirmation.
Screenshot Panels Configuration
Upper Panel: Shows RSI, RSI MA, and fixed bands for reversal strategies (RSI crossing bands).
Lower Panel: Displays three RSI MAs (Alligator-style) for trend-following, with background coloring for directional alignment.
Band Calculation Methods
The indicator offers three ways to calculate bands around RSI MA, each with unique characteristics:
Fixed Bands
Set at a fixed point value (default: 10) above and below RSI MA.
Example: If RSI MA = 50, band value = 10 → upper band = 60, lower = 40.
Use Case: Best for stable markets or fixed-range preferences.
Tip: Adjust the band value to widen or narrow the range based on asset volatility.
Percent Bands
Calculated as a percentage of RSI MA (default: 10%).
Example: If RSI MA = 50, band value = 10% → upper band = 55, lower = 45.
Use Case: Ideal for assets with varying volatility, as bands scale with RSI MA.
Tip: Experiment with percentage values to match typical price swings.
Standard Deviation Bands (StdDev)
Based on RSI’s standard deviation over the MA period, multiplied by a user-defined factor (default: 10).
Example: If RSI MA = 50, standard deviation = 5, factor = 2 → upper band = 60, lower = 40.
Important: The default value (10) may produce wide bands. Reduce to 1–2 for tighter, practical bands.
Use Case: Best for dynamic markets with fluctuating volatility.
Configuration Options
RSI Length: Set RSI calculation period (default: 20).
MA Length: Set RSI MA period (default: 20).
MA Type: Choose SMA or EMA for RSI MA (default: EMA).
Timeframes: Configure three timeframes (default: 4H, 8H, 12H) for MTF analysis.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: Optionally display fixed levels (default: 70/30).
Background Coloring: Enable/disable for each timeframe to highlight directional alignment.
How to Use
Add Indicator: Load it onto your TradingView chart.
Setup:
Reversals: Configure like the upper panel (RSI, RSI MA, bands) and watch for RSI crossing bands.
Trends: Configure like the lower panel (three RSI MAs) and look for fastest MA crossovers and background coloring.
Adjust Timeframes: Manually set tf1, tf2, tf3 (e.g., 1H, 2H, 4H on a 1H chart) to suit your strategy.
Adjust Bands: Choose band type (Fixed, Percent, StdDev) and value. For StdDev, reduce to 1–2 for tighter bands.
Experiment: Test settings to match your trading style, whether scalping, swing trading, or long-term.
Notes
Timeframes: Always match tf1, tf2, tf3 to your chart’s needs, as they don’t auto-adjust.
StdDev Bands: Lower the default value (10) to avoid overly wide bands.
Versatility: Works across markets (stocks, forex, crypto).
Candle Count RSI📈 Candle Count RSI — A Dual-Perspective Momentum Engine
The Candle Count RSI is a custom-built momentum oscillator that expands on the classic Relative Strength Index (RSI) by introducing a directional-only variant that tracks the frequency of bullish or bearish closes, rather than price magnitude. It gives traders a second lens through which to evaluate momentum, trend conviction, and subtle divergences—often invisible to traditional price-based RSI.
💡 What Makes It Unique?
While the standard RSI is sensitive to the size of price changes, the Candle Count RSI is magnitude-blind. It counts candle closes above/below open over a lookback period, generating a purer signal of directional consistency. To enhance signal fidelity, it includes a streak amplifier, dynamically weighting extended runs of green or red candles to reflect intensity of market bias—without introducing artificial price sensitivity.
This dual-RSI approach allows for:
- Divergence detection between directional bias and price magnitude.
- Smoother trend confirmation in choppy markets.
- Cleaner visual cues using dynamic glow and background logic.
📐 How Standard RSI Actually Works (Not What You Think)
RSI doesn’t just check if price went up or down over a span—it checks each individual candle and tracks whether it closed higher or lower than the one before. Here's how it works under the hood:
1.) For each bar, it calculates the change from the previous close.
2.) It separates those changes into gains (upward moves) and losses (downward moves).
3.) Then it computes a smoothed average of those gains and losses (usually using an RMA).
4.) It calculates the Relative Strength (RS) as:
RS = AvgGain / AvgLoss
5.) Finally, it plugs that into the RSI formula:
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
⚖️ What Does the 50 Line Mean?
- The RSI scale runs from 0 to 100, but 50 is the true neutral zone:
- RSI > 50 means average gains outweigh average losses over the period.
- RSI < 50 means losses dominate.
- RSI ≈ 50? The market is balanced—momentum is indecisive, no clear trend bias.
- This makes 50 a powerful midline for trend filters, directional bias tools, and divergence detection—especially when paired with alternative RSI logic like Candle Count RSI.
🔧 Inputs and Customization
- Everything is fully modular and customizable:
🧠 Core Settings
- RSI Length: Used for both the standard RSI and Candle Count RSI.
📉 Standard RSI
- Classic RSI calculation based on price changes.
- Optional WMA smoothing to reduce noise.
- Glow effect toggle with custom intensity.
🕯 Candle Count RSI
- Computes RSI using only the count of up/down candles.
- Optional smoothing for stability.
- Amplifies streaks (e.g., multiple consecutive bullish candles increase strength).
- Glow effect toggle with adjustable strength.
🎇 Glow Visuals
- Background glow (subpane and/or main chart).
- Fades based on RSI distance from the 50 midpoint.
- Independent color settings for bull and bear bias.
🧬 Divergence Zones
- Detects when Candle RSI and Standard RSI diverge.
- Highlights:
- Bullish Divergence: Candle RSI > 50, Standard RSI < threshold.
- Bearish Divergence: Candle RSI < 50, Standard RSI > threshold.
- Background fill optionally shown in subpane and/or main chart.
📊 Directional Histogram
- MACD-style histogram showing the difference between the two RSI lines.
- Color-coded based on directional agreement:
- Both rising → green.
- Both falling → red.
- Conflict → yellow.
🧠 Under the Hood — How It Works
🔹 Standard RSI
- Classic ta.rsi() applied to close prices, optionally WMA-smoothed.
🔹 Candle Count RSI (CCR)
- Counts how many candles closed up/down over the period.
- Computes a magnitude-free RSI from these counts.
- Applies a streak-based multiplier to exaggerate trend strength during consecutive green/red runs.
- Optionally smoothed with WMA to create a clean signal line.
- This makes CCR ideal for detecting true directional bias without being faked out by volatile price spikes.
🔹 Divergence Logic
- When Candle RSI and Standard RSI disagree strongly across defined thresholds, background fills highlight early signs of momentum decay or hidden accumulation/distribution.
🔹 Glow Logic
- Glow zones are controlled by a master toggle and drawn with dynamic transparency:
- Further from 50 = stronger conviction = darker glow.
- Shows up in subpane and/or main chart depending on user preference.
📷 Suggested Use Case / Visual Setup
- Use in conjunction with your primary price action system.
- Watch for divergences between the Candle Count RSI and Standard RSI for early trend reversals.
- Use glow bias zones on the main chart to get subconscious directional cues during fast scalping.
- Histogram helps you confirm when both RSI variants agree—useful during strong trending conditions.
🛠️ Tip for Traders
- This tool isn’t trying to “predict” price. It’s designed to visualize hidden market psychology—when buyers are showing up with consistent pressure, or when momentum has a disconnect between conviction and magnitude. Use this to filter entries, spot weak rallies, or sense when a trend is about to break down.
⚠️ WARNING
- Not for use with Heikin Ashi, Renko, etc.).
🧠 Summary
Candle Count RSI is not just another mashup—it's a precision-built, dual-perspective oscillator that captures directional conviction using real candle behavior. Whether you're scalping intraday or swing trading momentum, this script helps clarify trend integrity and exposes hidden weaknesses with elegance and clarity.

iD EMARSI on ChartSCRIPT OVERVIEW
The EMARSI indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool that maps RSI values directly onto price charts. With adaptive scaling capabilities, it provides a unique visualization of momentum that flows naturally with price action, making it particularly valuable for FOREX and low-priced securities trading.
KEY FEATURES
1 PRICE MAPPED RSI VISUALIZATION
Unlike traditional RSI that displays in a separate window, EMARSI plots the RSI directly on the price chart, creating a flowing line that identifies momentum shifts within the context of price action:
// Map RSI to price chart with better scaling
mappedRsi = useAdaptiveScaling ?
median + ((rsi - 50) / 50 * (pQH - pQL) / 2 * math.min(1.0, 1/scalingFactor)) :
down == pQL ? pQH : up == pQL ? pQL : median - (median / (1 + up / down))
2 ADAPTIVE SCALING SYSTEM
The script features an intelligent scaling system that automatically adjusts to different market conditions and price levels:
// Calculate adaptive scaling factor based on selected method
scalingFactor = if scalingMethod == "ATR-Based"
math.min(maxScalingFactor, math.max(1.0, minTickSize / (atrValue/avgPrice)))
else if scalingMethod == "Price-Based"
math.min(maxScalingFactor, math.max(1.0, math.sqrt(100 / math.max(avgPrice, 0.01))))
else // Volume-Based
math.min(maxScalingFactor, math.max(1.0, math.sqrt(1000000 / math.max(volume, 100))))
3 MODIFIED RSI CALCULATION
EMARSI uses a specially formulated RSI calculation that works with an adaptive base value to maintain consistency across different price ranges:
// Adaptive RSI Base based on price levels to improve flow
adaptiveRsiBase = useAdaptiveScaling ? rsiBase * scalingFactor : rsiBase
// Calculate RSI components with adaptivity
up = ta.rma(math.max(ta.change(rsiSourceInput), adaptiveRsiBase), emaSlowLength)
down = ta.rma(-math.min(ta.change(rsiSourceInput), adaptiveRsiBase), rsiLengthInput)
// Improved RSI calculation with value constraint
rsi = down == 0 ? 100 : up == 0 ? 0 : 100 - (100 / (1 + up / down))
4 MOVING AVERAGE CROSSOVER SYSTEM
The indicator creates a smooth moving average of the RSI line, enabling a crossover system that generates trading signals:
// Calculate MA of mapped RSI
rsiMA = ma(mappedRsi, emaSlowLength, maTypeInput)
// Strategy entries
if ta.crossover(mappedRsi, rsiMA)
strategy.entry("RSI Long", strategy.long)
if ta.crossunder(mappedRsi, rsiMA)
strategy.entry("RSI Short", strategy.short)
5 VISUAL REFERENCE FRAMEWORK
The script includes visual guides that help interpret the RSI movement within the context of recent price action:
// Calculate pivot high and low
pQH = ta.highest(high, hlLen)
pQL = ta.lowest(low, hlLen)
median = (pQH + pQL) / 2
// Plotting
plot(pQH, "Pivot High", color=color.rgb(82, 228, 102, 90))
plot(pQL, "Pivot Low", color=color.rgb(231, 65, 65, 90))
med = plot(median, style=plot.style_steplinebr, linewidth=1, color=color.rgb(238, 101, 59, 90))
6 DYNAMIC COLOR SYSTEM
The indicator uses color fills to clearly visualize the relationship between the RSI and its moving average:
// Color fills based on RSI vs MA
colUp = mappedRsi > rsiMA ? input.color(color.rgb(128, 255, 0), '', group= 'RSI > EMA', inline= 'up') :
input.color(color.rgb(240, 9, 9, 95), '', group= 'RSI < EMA', inline= 'dn')
colDn = mappedRsi > rsiMA ? input.color(color.rgb(0, 230, 35, 95), '', group= 'RSI > EMA', inline= 'up') :
input.color(color.rgb(255, 47, 0), '', group= 'RSI < EMA', inline= 'dn')
fill(rsiPlot, emarsi, mappedRsi > rsiMA ? pQH : rsiMA, mappedRsi > rsiMA ? rsiMA : pQL, colUp, colDn)
7 REAL TIME PARAMETER MONITORING
A transparent information panel provides real-time feedback on the adaptive parameters being applied:
// Information display
var table infoPanel = table.new(position.top_right, 2, 3, bgcolor=color.rgb(0, 0, 0, 80))
if barstate.islast
table.cell(infoPanel, 0, 0, "Current Scaling Factor", text_color=color.white)
table.cell(infoPanel, 1, 0, str.tostring(scalingFactor, "#.###"), text_color=color.white)
table.cell(infoPanel, 0, 1, "Adaptive RSI Base", text_color=color.white)
table.cell(infoPanel, 1, 1, str.tostring(adaptiveRsiBase, "#.####"), text_color=color.white)
BENEFITS FOR TRADERS
INTUITIVE MOMENTUM VISUALIZATION
By mapping RSI directly onto the price chart, traders can immediately see the relationship between momentum and price without switching between different indicator windows.
ADAPTIVE TO ANY MARKET CONDITION
The three scaling methods (ATR-Based, Price-Based, and Volume-Based) ensure the indicator performs consistently across different market conditions, volatility regimes, and price levels.
PREVENTS EXTREME VALUES
The adaptive scaling system prevents the RSI from generating extreme values that exceed chart boundaries when trading low-priced securities or during high volatility periods.
CLEAR TRADING SIGNALS
The RSI and moving average crossover system provides clear entry signals that are visually reinforced through color changes, making it easy to identify potential trading opportunities.
SUITABLE FOR MULTIPLE TIMEFRAMES
The indicator works effectively across multiple timeframes, from intraday to daily charts, making it versatile for different trading styles and strategies.
TRANSPARENT PARAMETER ADJUSTMENT
The information panel provides real-time feedback on how the adaptive system is adjusting to current market conditions, helping traders understand why the indicator is behaving as it is.
CUSTOMIZABLE VISUALIZATION
Multiple visualization options including Bollinger Bands, different moving average types, and customizable colors allow traders to adapt the indicator to their personal preferences.
CONCLUSION
The EMARSI indicator represents a significant advancement in RSI visualization by directly mapping momentum onto price charts with adaptive scaling. This approach makes momentum shifts more intuitive to identify and helps prevent the scaling issues that commonly affect RSI-based indicators when applied to low-priced securities or volatile markets.

Fast Length: The period for the fast moving average (default 12).
Slow Length: The period for the slow moving average (default 26).
Signal Length: The period for the signal line (default 9).
Smoothing Method: Choose between SMA or EMA for both the MACD and the signal line.
3. Signal Logic
Moving Average (MA) Crossover Signals:
Crossover: A bullish signal is generated when a fast MA crosses above a slow MA.
Crossunder: A bearish signal is generated when a fast MA crosses below a slow MA.
The crossovers are plotted with distinct colors, and the chart will display markers for these crossover events.
RSI Signals:
Oversold Crossover: A bullish signal when RSI crosses over its signal line below the oversold level (30).
Overbought Crossunder: A bearish signal when RSI crosses under its signal line above the overbought level (70).
RSI signals are divided into:
Aggressive (Early) Entries: Signals when RSI is crossing the oversold/overbought levels.
Conservative Entries: Signals when RSI confirms a reversal after crossing these levels.
MACD Signals:
Buy Signal: Generated when the MACD line crosses above the signal line (bullish crossover).
Sell Signal: Generated when the MACD line crosses below the signal line (bearish crossunder).
Additionally, the MACD histogram is used to identify momentum shifts:
Rising to Falling Histogram: Alerts when the MACD histogram switches from rising to falling.
Falling to Rising Histogram: Alerts when the MACD histogram switches from falling to rising.
4. Visuals and Alerts
Plotting:
The script plots the following on the price chart:
Moving Averages (MA): The selected MAs are plotted as lines.
Buy/Sell Shapes: Triangular markers are displayed for buy and sell signals generated by RSI and MACD.
Crossover and Crossunder Markers: Crosses are shown when two MAs crossover or crossunder.
Alerts:
Alerts can be configured based on the following conditions:
RSI Signals: Alerts for oversold or overbought crossover and crossunder events.
MACD Signals: Alerts for MACD line crossovers or momentum shifts in the MACD histogram.
Alerts are triggered when specific conditions are met, such as:
RSI crosses over or under the oversold/overbought levels.
MACD crosses the signal line.
Changes in the MACD histogram.
5. Example Usage
1. Trend Reversal Setup:
Buy Signal: Use the RSI oversold crossover and MACD bullish crossover to identify potential entry points in a downtrend.
Sell Signal: Use the RSI overbought crossunder and MACD bearish crossunder to identify potential exit points or short entries in an uptrend.
2. Momentum Strategy:
Combine MACD and RSI signals to identify the strength of a trend. Use MACD histogram analysis and RSI levels for confirmation.
3. Moving Average Crossover Strategy:
