Scaled Price Deviation with BufferAdvanced Scaled Price Deviation Indicator
This tool is for advanced technical analysis that goes beyond the typical deviation indicators. It incorporates dynamic scaling and a buffer mechanism to provide a more nuanced and adaptable assessment of price behavior relative to a moving average.
Core Functionality:
EMA and Deviation Calculation:
The indicator first calculates a 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the closing price (ema200).
It then computes the absolute difference (priceDeviation) between the current closing price and the 200 EMA, essentially measuring the price's deviation from the moving average.
Dynamic Scaling and Buffering:
This is where the indicator becomes sophisticated. It employs a user-defined lookback period (lookbackPeriod) to analyze historical price deviations.
It dynamically calculates the maximum (maxDeviation) and minimum (minDeviation) deviations observed within the lookback window.
This allows the indicator to adjust its sensitivity based on recent market volatility.
A buffer multiplier (bufferMultiplier) further amplifies the dynamic upper limit, providing flexibility for traders with different risk tolerances.
Finally, the priceDeviation is recalibrated (scaledDeviation) to a range of 0 to 100, leveraging the dynamic min and max as reference points.
Capping and Plotting:
The scaledDeviation is capped to the dynamically calculated upper limit (dynamicUpperLimit), preventing extreme values during periods of high volatility.
Two plots are generated:
Scaled Price Deviation (blue line): This primary line depicts the scaled deviation, offering a normalized and visually intuitive representation of price behavior relative to the EMA.
Dynamic Upper Limit (red line): This line visualizes the dynamic threshold that caps the scaledDeviation, providing context for the indicator's range.
Reference and Information:
A horizontal line at zero serves as a visual benchmark for the scaledDeviation.
On the right side of the chart, a label dynamically displays the current value of the scaledDeviation, formatted with two decimal places for enhanced clarity.
Advanced Concepts:
This indicator offers a more context-aware analysis compared to traditional deviation indicators by dynamically scaling the price deviation based on recent volatility.
The buffer multiplier allows for customization of the indicator's sensitivity to extreme price movements.
The capped scaledDeviation provides a more manageable interpretation during volatile periods.
Applications:
This indicator can be used for various trading strategies, including:
Identifying potential overbought and oversold conditions based on the scaledDeviation's position relative to zero and the dynamic upper limit.
Gauging price momentum or potential trend changes by analyzing the slope of the scaledDeviation line.

BTC Seasonality Strategy (Weekly)This strategy identifies potential weekend opportunities in Bitcoin (BTC) markets by leveraging the concept of seasonality, entering a position at a predefined time and day, and exiting at a specified time and day.
Key Features
Customizable Time and Day Selection:
Users can select the entry and exit days and corresponding times (in EST).
Directional Flexibility:
The strategy allows traders to choose between long or short positions.
TradingView Compliance:
The script adheres to TradingView's house rules, avoids overly complex conditions, and provides clear user-configurable inputs.
How It Works
The script determines the current weekday and hour in EST, converting TradingView's UTC time for accurate comparisons.
If the current day and hour match the selected entry conditions, a trade (long or short) is opened.
The position is closed when the current day and hour match the specified exit conditions.
Theoretical Basis
Market Seasonality:
The concept of seasonality in financial markets refers to predictable patterns based on time, such as weekends or specific days of the week. Studies have shown that cryptocurrency markets exhibit unique trading behaviors during weekends due to reduced institutional activity and higher retail participation behavioral Biases**:
Retail traders often dominate weekend markets, potentially causing predictable inefficiencies .

simple swing indicator-KTRNSE:NIFTY
1. Pivot High/Low as Lines:
Purpose: Identifies local peaks (pivot highs) and troughs (pivot lows) in price and draws horizontal lines at these levels.
How it Works:
A pivot high occurs when the price is higher than the surrounding bars (based on the pivotLength parameter).
A pivot low occurs when the price is lower than the surrounding bars.
These pivots are drawn as horizontal lines at the price level of the pivot.
Visualization:
Pivot High: A red horizontal line is drawn at the price level of the pivot high.
Pivot Low: A green horizontal line is drawn at the price level of the pivot low.
Example:
Imagine the price is trending up, and at some point, it forms a peak. The script identifies this peak as a pivot high and draws a red line at the price of that peak. Similarly, if the price forms a trough, the script will draw a green line at the low point.
2. Moving Averages (20-day and 50-day):
Purpose: Plots the 20-day and 50-day simple moving averages (SMA) on the chart.
How it Works:
The 20-day SMA smooths the closing price over the last 20 days.
The 50-day SMA smooths the closing price over the last 50 days.
These lines provide an overview of short-term and long-term price trends.
Visualization:
20-day SMA: A blue line showing the 20-day moving average.
50-day SMA: An orange line showing the 50-day moving average.
Example:
When the price is above both moving averages, it indicates an uptrend. If the price crosses below these averages, it might signal a downtrend.
3. Supertrend:
Purpose: The Supertrend is an indicator based on the Average True Range (ATR) and is used to track the market trend.
How it Works:
When the market is in an uptrend, the Supertrend line will be green.
When the market is in a downtrend, the Supertrend line will be red.
Visualization:
Uptrend: The Supertrend line will be plotted in green.
Downtrend: The Supertrend line will be plotted in red.
Example:
If the price is above the Supertrend, the market is considered to be in an uptrend, and if the price is below the Supertrend, the market is in a downtrend.
4. Momentum (Rate of Change):
Purpose: Measures the rate at which the price changes over a set period, showing if the momentum is positive or negative.
How it Works:
The Rate of Change (ROC) measures how much the price has changed over a certain number of periods (e.g., 14).
Positive ROC indicates upward momentum, and negative ROC indicates downward momentum.
Visualization:
Positive ROC: A purple line is plotted above the zero line.
Negative ROC: A purple line is plotted below the zero line.
Example:
If the ROC line is above zero, it means the price is increasing, suggesting bullish momentum. If the ROC is below zero, it indicates bearish momentum.
5. Volume:
Purpose: Displays the volume of traded assets, giving insight into the strength of price movements.
How it Works:
The script will color the volume bars based on whether the price closed higher or lower than the previous bar.
Green bars indicate bullish volume (closing price higher than the previous bar), and red bars indicate bearish volume (closing price lower than the previous bar).
Visualization:
Bullish Volume: Green volume bars when the price closes higher.
Bearish Volume: Red volume bars when the price closes lower.
Example:
If you see a green volume bar, it suggests that the market is participating in an uptrend, and the price has closed higher than the previous period. Red bars indicate a downtrend or selling pressure.
6. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
Purpose: The MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of the price.
How it Works:
The MACD Line is the difference between the 12-period EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and the 26-period EMA.
The Signal Line is the 9-period EMA of the MACD Line.
The MACD Histogram shows the difference between the MACD line and the Signal line.
Visualization:
MACD Line: A blue line representing the difference between the 12-period and 26-period EMAs.
Signal Line: An orange line representing the 9-period EMA of the MACD line.
MACD Histogram: A red or green histogram that shows the difference between the MACD line and the Signal line.
Example:
When the MACD line crosses above the Signal line, it’s considered a bullish signal. When the MACD line crosses below the Signal line, it’s considered a bearish signal.
Full Chart Example:
Imagine you're looking at a price chart with all the indicators:
Pivot High/Low Lines are drawn as red and green horizontal lines.
20-day and 50-day SMAs are plotted as blue and orange lines, respectively.
Supertrend shows a green or red line indicating the trend.
Momentum (ROC) is shown as a purple line oscillating around zero.
Volume bars are green or red based on whether the close is higher or lower.
MACD appears as a blue line and orange line, with a red or green histogram showing the MACD vs. Signal line difference.
How the Indicators Work Together:
Trend Confirmation: If the price is above the Supertrend line and both SMAs are trending up, it indicates a strong bullish trend.
Momentum: If the ROC is positive and the MACD line is above the Signal line, it further confirms bullish momentum.
Volume: Increasing volume, especially with green bars, suggests that the trend is being supported by active participation.
By using these combined indicators, you can get a comprehensive view of the market's trend, momentum, and potential reversal points (via pivot highs and lows).

QuantifyPS - 1Library "QuantifyPS"
normdist(z)
Parameters:
z (float) : (float): The z-score for which the CDF is to be calculated.
Returns: (float): The cumulative probability corresponding to the input z-score.
Notes:
- Uses an approximation method for the normal distribution CDF, which is computationally efficient.
- The result is accurate for most practical purposes but may have minor deviations for extreme values of `z`.
Formula:
- Based on the approximation formula:
`Φ(z) ≈ 1 - f(z) * P(t)` if `z > 0`, otherwise `Φ(z) ≈ f(z) * P(t)`,
where:
`f(z) = 0.3989423 * exp(-z^2 / 2)` (PDF of standard normal distribution)
`P(t) = Σ [c * t^i]` with constants `c` and `t = 1 / (1 + 0.2316419 * |z|)`.
Implementation details:
- The approximation uses five coefficients for the polynomial part of the CDF.
- Handles both positive and negative values of `z` symmetrically.
Constants:
- The coefficients and scaling factors are chosen to minimize approximation errors.
gamma(x)
Parameters:
x (float) : (float): The input value for which the Gamma function is to be calculated.
Must be greater than 0. For x <= 0, the function returns `na` as it is undefined.
Returns: (float): Approximation of the Gamma function for the input `x`.
Notes:
- The Lanczos approximation provides a numerically stable and efficient method to compute the Gamma function.
- The function is not defined for `x <= 0` and will return `na` in such cases.
- Uses precomputed Lanczos coefficients for accuracy.
- Includes handling for small numerical inaccuracies.
Formula:
- The Gamma function is approximated as:
`Γ(x) ≈ sqrt(2π) * t^(x + 0.5) * e^(-t) * Σ(p / (x + k))`
where `t = x + g + 0.5` and `p` is the array of Lanczos coefficients.
Implementation details:
- Lanczos coefficients (`p`) are precomputed and stored in an array.
- The summation iterates over these coefficients to compute the final result.
- The constant `g` controls the precision of the approximation (commonly `g = 7`).
t_cdf(t, df)
Parameters:
t (float) : (float): The t-statistic for which the CDF value is to be calculated.
df (int) : (int): Degrees of freedom of the t-distribution.
Returns: (float): Approximate CDF value for the given t-statistic.
Notes:
- This function computes a one-tailed p-value.
- Relies on an approximation formula using gamma functions and standard t-distribution properties.
- May not be as accurate as specialized statistical libraries for extreme values or very high degrees of freedom.
Formula:
- Let `x = df / (t^2 + df)`.
- The approximation formula is derived using:
`CDF(t, df) ≈ 1 - * x^((df + 1) / 2) / 2`,
where Γ represents the gamma function.
Implementation details:
- Computes the gamma ratio for normalization.
- Applies the t-distribution formula for one-tailed probabilities.
tStatForPValue(p, df)
Parameters:
p (float) : (float): P-value for which the t-statistic needs to be calculated.
Must be in the interval (0, 1).
df (int) : (int): Degrees of freedom of the t-distribution.
Returns: (float): The t-statistic corresponding to the given p-value.
Notes:
- If `p` is outside the interval (0, 1), the function returns `na` as an error.
- The function uses binary search with a fixed number of iterations and a defined tolerance.
- The result is accurate to within the specified tolerance (default: 0.0001).
- Relies on the cumulative density function (CDF) `t_cdf` for the t-distribution.
Formula:
- Uses the cumulative density function (CDF) of the t-distribution to iteratively find the t-statistic.
Implementation details:
- `low` and `high` define the search interval for the t-statistic.
- The midpoint (`mid`) is iteratively refined until the difference between the cumulative probability
and the target p-value is smaller than the tolerance.
jarqueBera(n, s, k)
Parameters:
n (float) : (series float): Number of observations in the dataset.
s (float) : (series float): Skewness of the dataset.
k (float) : (series float): Kurtosis of the dataset.

Correlation Confluence Trend IndicatorCorrelation Confluence Trend Indicator
Overview
The Correlation Confluence Trend Indicator combines exponential moving averages (EMAs) and statistical correlation measures to identify high-confidence trend alignments between an asset and a benchmark. By filtering signals through correlation strength, this indicator highlights opportunities when the asset and benchmark move together. In other words, it defines a trend and then uses correlation strength and the trend of a second asset to identify high-confidence trends.
Key Features
Dual EMA Trend Analysis :
Calculates fast and slow EMAs for both the asset and the selected benchmark (e.g., SPY) to identify bullish and bearish trends.
Correlation Strength Filtering :
Evaluates correlation between the asset and benchmark, identifying stronger-than-average relationships based on the mean and standard deviation.
Background Color Coding :
- Green : Strong correlation, both asset and benchmark bullish.
- Aqua : Weak correlation, both asset and benchmark bullish.
- Red : Strong correlation, both asset and benchmark bearish.
- Fuchsia : Weak correlation, both asset and benchmark bearish.
- Orange : Strong correlation, benchmark bullish, asset bearish.
- Yellow : Weak correlation, benchmark bullish, asset bearish.
- Purple : Strong correlation, benchmark bearish, asset bullish.
- Lime : Weak correlation, benchmark bearish, asset bullish.
Visual Trend Indicators :
Plots fast and slow EMAs for the asset, dynamically colored based on aggregate trend signals. The color of this corresponds to the main trend signal.
Inputs
Benchmark Symbol : Symbol of the benchmark asset to compare against.
Fast EMA Length : Period for the fast EMA calculation.
Slow EMA Length : Period for the slow EMA calculation.
Correlation Length : Number of bars for correlation calculation.
Correlation Mean Length : Number of bars for mean and standard deviation calculation.
Std Dev Multiplier : Multiplier for standard deviation to define correlation strength. When the correlation is Std Dev Multiplier standard deviations above the mean, it counts as a strong correlation.
Set Background Color : Toggle background coloring on or off.
Notes
This indicator is primarily designed for trend-following strategies. By combining trend analysis and correlation filtering, it ensures that signals occur during aligned market conditions, reducing false signals.
Before incorporating this indicator into your trading strategy:
Always backtest on historical data to evaluate its performance before committing capital.
Use proper risk management to control position sizes and mitigate potential losses.
Remember that no indicator guarantees success. I'm quite proud of this one, but it's not the holy grail.

MACD -- Normalized█ OVERVIEW
This indicator is a normalized and scaled version of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence ( MACD ) indicator, inspired by the work in "Statistically Sound Indicators" by Timothy Masters. It enhances the traditional MACD by applying statistical normalization and scaling techniques, providing more consistent and reliable signals across different markets and timeframes.
█ CONCEPTS
The traditional MACD measures the difference between two Exponential Moving Averages ( EMAs ) of different lengths to identify momentum changes. However, its raw values are unbounded, making it challenging to compare across different instruments or timeframes.
This normalized MACD addresses this limitation by:
• Normalization : Adjusting the MACD values using the Average True Range ( ATR ) to account for market volatility.
• Scaling : Applying the Cumulative Distribution Function ( CDF ) to constrain the output between -50 and +50.
• Smoothing : Providing a smoothed signal line and histogram to effectively visualize momentum shifts.
█ FEATURES
• Normalized MACD Line : Computes the difference between the short-term and long-term EMAs, normalized by market volatility.
• Signal Line : Applies EMA smoothing to the normalized MACD line over a user-defined period.
• Histogram : Visualizes the difference between the normalized MACD line and the signal line, highlighting momentum changes.
• Customization Options :
• Adjustable lengths for the short-term EMA, long-term EMA, and signal line smoothing.
• Ability to toggle the visibility of the MACD line, signal line, and histogram.
• Statistical Scaling : Utilizes statistical methods from Timothy Masters' work to provide consistent scaling across different instruments.
█ HOW TO USE
1 — Identify Momentum Shifts :
• A crossover of the MACD line above the signal line may indicate a bullish momentum shift.
• A crossover of the MACD line below the signal line may indicate a bearish momentum shift.
2 — Analyze the Histogram :
• A rising histogram suggests strengthening momentum in the current trend direction.
• A falling histogram may signal weakening momentum or a potential reversal.
3 — Customize Parameters :
• Adjust the EMA lengths and smoothing periods to fit the specific instrument or timeframe.
• Use the visibility toggles to focus on the components most relevant to your analysis.
4 — Combine with Other Tools :
• Use in conjunction with support/resistance levels, trend lines, or other indicators to confirm signals.
• Consider the overall market context to enhance decision-making.
█ LIMITATIONS
• The indicator is based on historical price data; it may not predict future market movements accurately.
• May produce false signals during low volatility or ranging market conditions.
• Initial periods may display na values due to insufficient data for calculations.
█ NOTES
• Ensure that the MathHelpers library by HuntGatherTrade is imported for the indicator to function correctly.
• The default parameters are commonly used settings but may require adjustments based on the trading instrument and timeframe.
• The normalization and scaling techniques are designed to make the indicator's outputs more comparable across different markets.
Close Minus Moving Average█ OVERVIEW
The Close Minus Moving Average (CMMA) is a statistically robust mean reversion indicator designed to identify potential reversal points in the market. By analyzing the relationship between the closing price and its moving average, CMMA provides traders with actionable insights to enhance their trading strategies.
Important
This indicator requires the use of the MathHelpers library published by HuntGatherTrade
█ CONCEPTS
The CMMA indicator operates by calculating the logarithmic difference between the current closing price and its simple moving average (SMA). This difference is then normalized using the Average True Range (ATR) to account for market volatility. The resulting value is transformed using the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) to produce a standardized metric that oscillates around zero.
Key Steps :
Logarithmic Calculation: Computes the natural logarithm of the closing prices.
Moving Average: Applies a simple moving average to the logarithmic closing prices.
ATR Normalization: Utilizes ATR to normalize the difference, ensuring the indicator adapts to varying market conditions.
CDF Transformation: Transforms the normalized difference to a scale that highlights mean reversion tendencies.
Mean Reversion
Mean reversion is a financial theory suggesting that asset prices and historical returns eventually return to the long-term mean or average level of the entire dataset. The CMMA leverages this concept to signal potential entry and exit points based on deviations from the moving average.
█ FEATURES
Adaptive Normalization: Utilizes ATR to adjust for market volatility, ensuring consistent performance across different market conditions.
Statistical Robustness: Built upon methodologies from Timothy Masters, ensuring reliable mean reversion signals.
Clear Visuals: Differentiates positive and negative deviations with distinct color coding for easy interpretation.
Customizable Parameters: Allows users to adjust lookback periods and ATR lengths to tailor the indicator to their specific trading needs
.
█ HOW TO USE
Add the Indicator :
Navigate to the Pine Script editor on TradingView.
Paste the CMMA script and add it to your chart.
Adjust Parameters :
Lookback Period: Determines the number of periods for calculating the moving average of the logarithmic close. Default is 1.
ATR Length: Sets the number of periods for ATR calculation. Default is 252.
Interpret Signals :
Green Plot: Indicates that the closing price is above the moving average, suggesting bullish momentum.
Red Plot: Indicates that the closing price is below the moving average, suggesting bearish momentum.
Zero Line: Serves as a reference point for mean reversion signals.
Trading Strategy :
Buy Signal: When CMMA crosses above the zero line, indicating a potential upward reversal.
Sell Signal: When CMMA crosses below the zero line, indicating a potential downward reversal.
█ LIMITATIONS
Lagging Indicator: As with all moving averages, CMMA is based on historical data and may lag during rapid market movements.
Parameter Sensitivity: The effectiveness of CMMA can vary based on the chosen lookback and ATR periods. Users should optimize these parameters based on the specific asset and timeframe.
Market Conditions: Best suited for mean-reverting markets and may underperform in trending or highly volatile environments.
█ NOTES
Version Compatibility: The CMMA script is written in Pine Script™ version 6. Ensure your TradingView environment supports this version.

Global Index Spread RSI StrategyThis strategy leverages the relative strength index (RSI) to monitor the price spread between a global benchmark index (such as AMEX) and the currently opened asset in the chart window. By calculating the spread between these two, the strategy uses RSI to identify oversold and overbought conditions to trigger buy and sell signals.
Key Components:
Global Benchmark Index: The strategy compares the current asset with a predefined global index (e.g., AMEX) to measure relative performance. The choice of a global benchmark allows the trader to analyze the current asset's movement in the context of broader market trends.
Spread Calculation:
The spread is calculated as the percentage difference between the current asset's closing price and the global benchmark index's closing price:
Spread=Current Asset Close−Global Index CloseGlobal Index Close×100
Spread=Global Index CloseCurrent Asset Close−Global Index Close×100
This metric provides a measure of how the current asset is performing relative to the global index. A positive spread indicates the asset is outperforming the benchmark, while a negative spread signals underperformance.
RSI of the Spread: The RSI is then calculated on the spread values. The RSI is a momentum oscillator that ranges from 0 to 100 and is commonly used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in asset prices. An RSI below 30 is considered oversold, indicating a potential buying opportunity, while an RSI above 70 is overbought, suggesting that the asset may be due for a pullback.
Strategy Logic:
Entry Condition: The strategy enters a long position when the RSI of the spread falls below the oversold threshold (default 30). This suggests that the asset may have been oversold relative to the global benchmark and might be due for a reversal.
Exit Condition: The strategy exits the long position when the RSI of the spread rises above the overbought threshold (default 70), indicating that the asset may have become overbought and a price correction is likely.
Visual Reference:
The RSI of the spread is plotted on the chart for visual reference, making it easier for traders to monitor the relative strength of the asset in relation to the global benchmark.
Overbought and oversold levels are also drawn as horizontal reference lines (70 and 30), along with a neutral level at 50 to show market equilibrium.
Theoretical Basis:
The strategy is built on the mean reversion principle, which suggests that asset prices tend to revert to a long-term average over time. When prices move too far from this mean—either being overbought or oversold—they are likely to correct back toward equilibrium. By using RSI to identify these extremes, the strategy aims to profit from price reversals.
Mean Reversion: According to financial theory, asset prices oscillate around a long-term average, and any extreme deviation (overbought or oversold conditions) presents opportunities for price corrections (Poterba & Summers, 1988).
Momentum Indicators (RSI): The RSI is widely used in technical analysis to measure the momentum of an asset. Its application to the spread between the asset and a global benchmark allows for a more nuanced view of relative performance and potential turning points in the asset's price trajectory.
Practical Application:
This strategy works best in markets where relative strength is a key factor in decision-making, such as in equity indices, commodities, or forex markets. By assessing the performance of the asset relative to a global benchmark and utilizing RSI to identify extremes in price movements, the strategy helps traders to make more informed decisions based on potential mean reversion points.
While the "Global Index Spread RSI Strategy" offers a method for identifying potential price reversals based on relative strength and oversold/overbought conditions, it is important to recognize that no strategy is foolproof. The strategy assumes that the historical relationship between the asset and the global benchmark will hold in the future, but financial markets are subject to a wide array of unpredictable factors that can lead to sudden changes in price behavior.
Risk of False Signals:
The strategy relies heavily on the RSI to trigger buy and sell signals. However, like any momentum-based indicator, RSI can generate false signals, particularly in highly volatile or trending markets. In such conditions, the strategy may enter positions too early or exit too late, leading to potential losses.
Market Context:
The strategy may not account for macroeconomic events, news, or other market forces that could cause sudden shifts in asset prices. External factors, such as geopolitical developments, monetary policy changes, or financial crises, can cause a divergence between the asset and the global benchmark, leading to incorrect conclusions from the strategy.
Overfitting Risk:
As with any strategy that uses historical data to make decisions, there is a risk of overfitting the model to past performance. This could result in a strategy that works well on historical data but performs poorly in live trading conditions due to changes in market dynamics.
Execution Risks:
The strategy does not account for slippage, transaction costs, or liquidity issues, which can impact the execution of trades in real-market conditions. In fast-moving markets, prices may move significantly between order placement and execution, leading to worse-than-expected entry or exit prices.
No Guarantee of Profit:
Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. The strategy should be used with caution, and risk management techniques (such as stop losses and position sizing) should always be implemented to protect against significant losses.
Traders should thoroughly test and adapt the strategy in a simulated environment before applying it to live trades, and consider seeking professional advice to ensure that their trading activities align with their risk tolerance and financial goals.

Global vs National Index Spread RSIThe Global vs National Index Spread RSI indicator visualizes the relative strength of national stock indices compared to a global benchmark (e.g., AMEX). It calculates the percentage spread between the closing prices of each national index and the global index, applying the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to each spread.
How It Works
Spread Calculation: The spread represents the percentage difference between a national index and the global index.
RSI Application: RSI is applied to these spreads to identify overbought or oversold conditions in the relative performance of the national indices.
Reference Lines: Overbought (70), oversold (30), and neutral (50) levels help guide interpretation.
Insights from Research
The correlation between global and national indices provides insights into market integration and interdependence. Studies such as Forbes & Rigobon (2002) emphasize the importance of understanding these linkages during periods of financial contagion. Observing spread trends with RSI can aid in identifying shifts in investor sentiment and regional performance anomalies.
Use Cases
- Detect divergences between national and global markets.
- Identify overbought or oversold conditions for specific indices.
- Complement portfolio management strategies by monitoring geographic performance.

Chaikin's Money FlowOverview : Chaikin's Money Flow (CMF) is a momentum indicator that measures the buying and selling pressure of a financial instrument over a specified period. By incorporating both price and volume, CMF provides a comprehensive view of market sentiment, helping traders identify potential trend reversals and confirm the strength of existing trends.
Key Features:
Volume-Weighted : Unlike price-only indicators, CMF accounts for trading volume, offering deeper insights into the forces driving price movements.
Oscillatory Nature : CMF oscillates between positive and negative values, typically ranging from -100 to +100, indicating the balance between buying and selling pressure.
Trend Confirmation : Positive CMF values suggest accumulating buying pressure, while negative values indicate distributing selling pressure. This aids in confirming the direction and strength of trends.
Calculation Details :
Intraday Intensity (II) = 100 × (2×Close−High−Low) / (High−Low) × Volume
Condition: If High=Low, II is set to 0 to prevent division by zero.
II_smoothed = SMA(II, lookback)
Applies a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to the Intraday Intensity over the defined lookback period to smooth out short-term fluctuations.
Volume Smoothing:
V_smoothed = EMA(Volume, Volume Smoothing Period)
Utilizes an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to smooth the volume over the specified smoothing period, giving more weight to recent data.
Money Flow Calculation:
Money Flow = II_smoothed / V_smoothed
Condition: If Vsmoothed=0Vsmoothed=0, Money Flow is set to 0 to avoid division by zero.
Usage Instructions:
Parameters Configuration:
Lookback Period: Determines the number of periods over which Intraday Intensity is averaged. A higher value results in a smoother indicator, reducing sensitivity to short-term price movements.
Volume Smoothing Period: Defines the period for the EMA applied to Volume. Adjusting this parameter affects the responsiveness of the Money Flow indicator to changes in trading volume.
Interpreting the Indicator:
Positive Values (>0): Indicate buying pressure. The higher the value, the stronger the buying interest.
Negative Values (<0): Signal selling pressure. The lower the value, the more intense the selling activity.
Crossovers: Watch for Money Flow crossing above the zero line as potential buy signals and crossing below as potential sell signals.
Divergence: Identify divergences between Money Flow and price movements to anticipate possible trend reversals.

Gains and Drawdowns with Standard DeviationsThis “Gains and Drawdowns with Standard Deviations” indicator helps in analyzing and visualizing the percentage gains and drawdown phases of a market or asset relative to its historical range. By calculating gains from the lowest low and drawdowns from the highest high over a specified lookback period, this indicator provides deeper insights into price movements and risk.
Key Features and Applications:
1. Gain and Drawdown Calculation:
• Gains: The indicator calculates the percentage gain from the lowest price point within a specific lookback period (e.g., 250 days).
• Drawdowns: Drawdowns are calculated as the percentage change from the highest point in the same period. This helps in identifying the maximum loss phases.
2. Standard Deviation:
• The indicator computes the standard deviation of both gains and drawdowns over a specified period (e.g., 250 days), allowing you to quantify volatility.
• Three bands (1st, 2nd, and 3rd standard deviations) are plotted for both gains and drawdowns, representing the frequency and magnitude of price movements within the normal volatility range.
3. Extreme Movements Highlighting:
• The indicator highlights extreme gains and drawdowns when they exceed user-defined thresholds. This helps in identifying significant market events or turning points.
4. Customizable Thresholds:
• Users can adjust the thresholds for extreme gains and drawdowns, as well as the lookback period for calculating gains, drawdowns, and standard deviations, making the indicator highly adaptable to specific needs.
Application in Portfolio Management:
The use of standard deviation in portfolio management is essential for assessing the risk and volatility of a portfolio. According to Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT) by Harry Markowitz, diversification of assets in a portfolio helps to minimize overall risk (especially the standard deviation), while maximizing returns. The standard deviation of a portfolio measures the volatility of its returns, with higher standard deviation indicating higher risk.
Scientific Source: Markowitz, H. M. (1952). Portfolio Selection. The Journal of Finance, 7(1), 77-91.
Markowitz’s theory suggests that an optimized portfolio, by minimizing the standard deviation of returns and combining a diversified asset allocation, can achieve better risk-adjusted returns.
Conclusion:
This indicator is particularly useful for traders and portfolio managers who want to understand and visualize market risk and extreme events. By using gains, drawdowns, and volatility metrics, it allows for systematic monitoring and evaluation of price movements, leading to more informed decisions in trading or portfolio management. A comprehensive understanding of price behavior and volatility helps in optimizing risk management and making strategic market entries.
Key Features:
• Visualization of Gains and Drawdowns with color-coded highlights for extreme movements.
• Standard Deviation Calculations for detailed volatility analysis.
• Customizable Thresholds for identifying extreme market events.
This indicator is a valuable tool for analyzing market data from a scientific standpoint, improving risk management, and making data-driven decisions based on historical performance.
Buy When There's Blood in the Streets StrategyStatistical Analysis of Drawdowns in Stock Markets
Drawdowns, defined as the decline from a peak to a trough in asset prices, are an essential measure of risk and market dynamics. Their statistical properties provide insights into market behavior during extreme stress periods.
Distribution of Drawdowns: Research suggests that drawdowns follow a power-law distribution, implying that large drawdowns, while rare, are more frequent than expected under normal distributions (Sornette et al., 2003).
Impacts of Extreme Drawdowns: During significant drawdowns (e.g., financial crises), the average recovery time is significantly longer, highlighting market inefficiencies and behavioral biases. For example, the 2008 financial crisis led to a 57% drawdown in the S&P 500, requiring years to recover (Cont, 2001).
Using Standard Deviations: Drawdowns exceeding two or three standard deviations from their historical mean are often indicative of market overreaction or capitulation, creating contrarian investment opportunities (Taleb, 2007).
Behavioral Finance Perspective: Investors often exhibit panic-selling during drawdowns, leading to oversold conditions that can be exploited using statistical thresholds like standard deviations (Kahneman, 2011).
Practical Implications: Studies on mean reversion show that extreme drawdowns are frequently followed by periods of recovery, especially in equity markets. This underpins strategies that "buy the dip" under specific, statistically derived conditions (Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993).
