Ultimate RSIThis indicator is a customized version of the RSI indicator that by default utilizes Bollinger Bands. It have included two layers of bands, with separate standard deviations. The indicator is fully customizable.
The indicator displays bullish and bearish divergence from price.
You are able to change the moving average that is used to calculate both the RSI itself, as well as the moving average used for the Bollinger Bands.
I have included fills that color the background to indicate various zones of RSI values.
Price tends to either reject or move quickly at these levels.
I have a yellow RSI zone that indicates a sideways market with little to no momentum with default values of 45 to 55. These are areas where trading is stagnant and you should likely avoid placing trades.
There is now an ATR feature to adjust the Bollinger Bands with ATR (Average True Range).
In order to trade with this indicator, you should watch for the white line (RSI) to cross into the Bollinger Bands, then cross over the yellow moving average (Basis line), where you would enter a BUY or SELL.
Watch this indicator in action and look for patterns. Draw vertical lines on the chart where you would have wanted to buy or sell and study this to understand how to make better trading decisions.
NOTE:
While not required in order to use this indicator, it was designed to visually work with another indicator of mine called The Ultimate Buy and Sell Indicator. I recommend using both together as they are a strong pair of indicators that share the same settings. This indicator while it can be used independently can also help you visualize the settings changes made to the other one which are unable to be displayed on the main chart by that indicator.

Anticipated Profit Targets (APT)Anticipated Profit Targets (APT)
Purpose:
The Anticipated Profit Targets script is a specialized tool designed to assist traders in visualizing potential exit points for their trades. This is achieved by leveraging the Average True Range (ATR), a renowned measure of market volatility.
How It Works:
ATR Computations: At its core, the script calculates the ATR based on a user-defined number of periods. The ATR captures the range between the high and low prices of an asset over a specific duration, providing a snapshot of its volatility.
Multiplier Application: To fine-tune the profit targets, the ATR is multiplied by a user-defined multiplier. This step adjusts the ATR value, setting the profit targets at a distance from the current price, thus accounting for potential price movements.
Adaptable Timeframes: One of the standout features of this script is its adaptability. Users can select their desired timeframe for the profit target calculations. This flexibility means that a trader can be on a 15-minute chart but visualize profit targets based on the volatility of a 1-hour chart.
Visual Representation: The calculated profit targets are then overlaid onto the current chart. This visual aid provides traders with a clear perspective of potential exit points in relation to ongoing price movements.
Originality and Usefulness:
While the concept of using ATR for setting profit targets isn't new, this script's adaptability across timeframes and its user-centric customization options make it a unique offering. The combination of ATR with dynamic multipliers and timeframe adaptability ensures that traders get a tool tailored to their specific needs, rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.
Usage Guidelines:
After adding the script to the chart, traders can adjust the input parameters to their preferences. The anticipated profit targets will then be displayed, offering potential exit points. It's recommended to use these targets in conjunction with other technical indicators and chart patterns for a holistic trading strategy.
Features:
ATR Periods: The ATR is calculated using a user-defined number of periods. By default, it's set to 14 periods, a standard setting. The ATR gauges the asset's volatility, and adjusting the periods can increase or decrease its sensitivity to recent price fluctuations.
ATR Multiplier: The ATR is multiplied by a user-defined factor to determine the profit targets. With a default multiplier of 1.5, the profit target will be positioned 1.5 times the ATR above (for bullish trades) or below (for bearish trades) the current price.
Target Timeframe: Traders can choose the timeframe for which the profit targets are calculated. This feature enables viewing of profit targets from higher timeframes on the current chart. For instance, while observing a 15-minute chart, one can see the 1-hour profit targets.
Visual Indicators:
1. Two lines are plotted: the bullish target (in green) and the bearish target (in red).
2. At the onset of each new candle in the selected higher timeframe, labels indicating the precise profit target values are displayed.
3. Price scale labels also showcase the profit targets, offering a quick reference for potential exit points.
Customization:
Traders can modify the following parameters:
1. ATR Periods: Adjusting the number of periods can refine the ATR's sensitivity to price changes.
2. Multiplier for ATR: Tweaking this value alters the distance between the profit targets and the current price.
3. Timeframe for Profit Targets: A variety of timeframes are available, granting flexibility in viewing profit targets.
How to Use:
After integrating the script into their chart, traders can modify the input parameters as desired. The anticipated profit targets will then be overlaid on the chart, offering potential exit points. When used alongside other technical indicators and chart patterns, this tool can enhance trading decision-making.
Note: This script is designed for educational purposes and should not be considered as financial advice. Always conduct your own research and consult with a financial advisor before making any trading decisions.

Expected Move by Option's Implied Volatility Symbols: EAT - GBDC
This script plots boxes to reflect weekly, monthly and yearly expected moves based on "At The Money" put and call option's implied volatility.
Symbols in range: This script will display Expected Move data for Symbols within the range of EAT-GDBC in alphabetical order.
Weekly Updates: Each weekend, the script is updated with fresh expected move data, a job that takes place every Saturday following the close of the markets on Friday.
In the provided script, several boxes are created and plotted on a price chart to represent the expected price moves for various timeframes.
These boxes serve as visual indicators to help traders and analysts understand the expected price volatility.
Definition of Expected Move: Expected Move refers to the anticipated range within which the price of an underlying asset is expected to move over a specific time frame, based on the current implied volatility of its options. Calculation: Expected Move is typically calculated by taking the current stock price and applying a multiple of the implied volatility. The most commonly used multiple is the one-standard-deviation move, which encompasses approximately 68% of potential price outcomes.
Example: Suppose a stock is trading at $100, and the implied volatility of its options is 20%. The one-standard-deviation expected move would be $100 * 0.20 = $20.
This suggests that there is a 68% probability that the stock's price will stay within a range of $80 to $120 over the specified time frame. Usage: Traders and investors use the expected move as a guideline for setting trading strategies and managing risk. It helps them gauge the potential price swings and make informed decisions about buying or selling options. There is a 68% chance that the underlying asset stock or ETF price will be within the boxed area at option expiry. The data on this script is updating weekly at the close of Friday, calculating the implied volatility for the week/month/year based on the "at the money" put and call options with the relevant expiry.
In summary, implied volatility reflects market expectations about future price volatility, especially in the context of options. Expected Move is a practical application of implied volatility, helping traders estimate the likely price range for an asset over a given period. Both concepts play a vital role in assessing risk and devising trading strategies in the options and stock markets.

ATR SpikeALWAYS TRADE THE DIRECTION OF THE TREND
This indicator is useful for 5-minute Bank Nifty intraday trading.
It compares the Open-Close value for a 5-minute bar with the current ATR value.
When a bar has higher than the ATR value then it means that the current bar has a higher Open-Close than the ATR.
This means that after a period of dull action, some action has taken place.
And more action will follow in the direction of the immediate trend.
It signals the start of momentum which I look for as a intraday trader.
Feel free to experiment and change values as it suits you.
I use it on Bank Nifty only on 5 minute timeframe with 14 period ATR.

MA Slope [EMA Magic]█ Overview:
The MA Slope calculates the slope based on a given moving average.
The Moving Average Slope indicator allows you to identify the direction and the strength of a trend.
It calculates the rate of change in percentage based on the user-defined moving average.
█ Calculation: This indicator calculates the slope based on the changes of moving average and normalizes it with Average True Range(ATR).
The default value of ATR is 7.I recommend not changing it unless you know exactly what are you doing.
█ Input Settings:
The settings are divided into three sections:
The first section is for time frame adjustments. Modify it separately from the chart, Allows you to use moving averages from different time frames.
In the second section, you can configure the base calculation,including Moving Average and Average True Range(ATR) settings.
In the third section, you can detect breakout and sudden change signals, which are highlighted in the background of the indicator.
Note that When you change the breakout limit value, it also affects the band limit indicator on your chart.
To avoid signal confusion, use only one at a time.
Here is the example the breakout signals:
█ Usage:
When the slope is increasing, it indicates an uptrend.
When the slope is decreasing, it indicates a downtrend.
When the slope is moving around zero and choppy, it indicates no specific trend or price is in a range zone.
Uptrend and Range Zone example:
Downtrend example:
Slope peaks on extreme levels can signal a potential trend reversal point.
Breakout of the upper or lower bands can be translated into a trading signal.Indicating that price will probably continue to move in the direction of the breakout.
Favor long setups when the slope is increasing or it is positive and favor short setups when the slope is decreasing or it is negative.
Fits with any moving average you use, e.g., EMA, WMA, MA Ribbon, and more.
█ Alert
Alerts are available for both signal conditions.

Z-Score - AsymmetrikZ-Score-Asymmetrik User Manual
Introduction
The Z-Score Indicator is a powerful tool used in technical analysis to measure how far a data point is from the mean value of a dataset, measured in terms of standard deviations. This indicator helps traders identify potential overbought or oversold conditions in the market.
This user manual provides a comprehensive guide on how to use the Z-Score Indicator in TradingView.
0. Quickstart
- Set the thresholds based on your asset (number of standard deviations that you consider being extreme for this asset / timeframe).
- Red background indicates a possible overbought situation, green background an oversold one.
- The color and direction of the Z-Score Line acts as a confirmation of the trend reversal.
1. Indicator Overview
The Z-Score Indicator, also known as the Z-Score Oscillator, is designed to display the Z-Score of a selected financial instrument on your TradingView chart. The Z-Score measures how many standard deviations an asset's price is from its mean (average) price over a specified period.
The indicator consists of the following components:
- Z-Score Line: This line represents the Z-Score value and is displayed on the indicator panel.
- Background Color: The background color of the indicator panel changes based on user-defined thresholds.
2. Inputs
The indicator provides several customizable inputs to tailor it to your specific trading preferences:
- Number of Periods: This input allows you to define the number of periods over which the Z-Score will be calculated. A longer period will provide a smoother Z-Score line but may be less responsive to recent price changes.
- Z-Score Low Threshold: Sets the lower threshold value for the Z-Score. When the Z-Score crosses below this threshold, the background color of the indicator panel changes accordingly.
- Z-Score High Threshold: Sets the upper threshold value for the Z-Score. When the Z-Score crosses above this threshold, the background color of the indicator panel changes accordingly.
3. How to Use the Indicator
Here are the steps to use the Z-Score Indicator:
- Adjust Parameters: Modify the indicator's inputs as needed. You can change the number of periods for the Z-Score calculation and set your desired low and high thresholds.

Volatility Trend (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Volatility Trend (Zeiierman) is an indicator designed to help traders identify and analyze market trends based on price volatility. By calculating a dynamic trend line and volatility-adjusted bands, the indicator provides visual cues to understand the current market direction, potential reversal points and volatility.
█ How It Works
The indicator uses a weighted moving average of historical prices to create a responsive trend line that is adjusted for volatility using standard deviation. The indicator sets upper and lower bands at intervals of two standard deviations, acting as markers for potential overbought or oversold conditions. Additionally, by comparing current and previous trend line values, the indicator identifies the trend direction, providing crucial insights for traders.
█ How to Use
Trend Identification
Use the trend line to identify the overall market direction. An upward-sloping line indicates an uptrend, while a downward-sloping line indicates a downtrend.
Volatility Assessment
Use the distance between the upper and lower bands to gauge market volatility. Wider bands indicate higher volatility, while narrower bands indicate lower volatility.
Overbought/Oversold
If the price reaches or exceeds the upper or lower bands, it may be in an overbought or oversold condition, respectively.
█ Settings
Trend Control: Adjusts the sensitivity and smoothness of the trend line. Lower values make the trend more responsive, while higher values make it smoother.
Trend Dynamic: Controls how quickly the trend adjusts to price changes. Higher values result in a slower adjustment.
Volatility: Consists of two parts - the scaling factor for volatility and the sensitivity for volatility adjustment. Adjusting these settings alters the distance between the trend lines and the price, as well as how sensitive the bands are to changes in volatility.
Squeeze Control: Influences the degree to which market squeeze is considered in the calculation, with higher values increasing sensitivity.
Enable Scalping Trend: A toggle that, when activated, makes the indicator focus on short-term trends, which is particularly useful for scalping strategies.

HTF - Candles with polylines"HTF - Candles with polylines" draws the previous Higher TimeFrame candles with the new feature polylines .
🔶 USAGE
This publication makes it possible to see Higher Time Frame (HTF) candles on current chart, so you can see the bigger picture without switching to a HTF
The current HTF is represented with a dashed-line box, covering the recent HTF open & close
🔹 Examples :
• current timeframe 1 minute, HTF: 4 hour
• current timeframe 15 minutes, HTF: 1 Day
• current timeframe 1 hour, HTF: 1 Week
Enabling " curved " gives a nice visual effect:
"Pine - Apple" 😀
🔶 DETAILS
The candle is made by starting a polyline at the bottom left. It then goes around, connecting the open-high-low-close values while making sure the width/height of the candle correspondends with the current timeframe candles. Arriving at the top left side, the polyline is connected back with the initial start point by setting the "closed" argument of polyline.new to "true".
-> closed (series bool) If true, the drawing will also connect the first point to the last point from the `points` array, resulting in a closed polyline.
🔶 SETTINGS
• HTF + "curved"
• colours
BB phasesThis indicator is designed to visually represent different market phases based on Bollinger Bands (BB) and provide insights into potential bullish and bearish signals. Let's break down what the indicator does:
The indicator smoothly transitions from the "squeeze" phase to "bullish" or "bearish" phases based on specific price conditions. Here's a more detailed explanation of how this transition occurs:
Squeeze Phase: The "squeeze" phase is identified when the closing price is within the range between the upper Bollinger Band (upper BB) and the lower Bollinger Band (lower BB).
Transition to Bullish Phase: The transition from "squeeze" to "bullish" phase occurs when the price closes above the upper BB. The bullish phase will last while the price hasn't closed below the middle BB.
Transition to Bearish Phase: Conversely, the transition from "squeeze" to "bearish" phase occurs when the price closes below the lower BB. The bearish phase will last while the price hasn't closed above the middle BB.
Another feature of the indicator is to display bearish/bullish triangles when the price reintegrate the bollinger bands after it previously breaked it. For example if the price closes below the lower BB and then the next candle in above the lower BB, a bullish triangle will be displayed.
Candle Pivot and Stop LossThe script plot upside and down side stop loss using pivot point and trure range.
The True Range, representing market volatility, is determined by finding the maximum value among the differences between the previous high-low, high-close, and low-close. The Downside Stop Loss is calculated by adding the True Range to the Pivot Point, while the Upside Stop Loss is calculated by subtracting the True Range from the Pivot Point.
These levels are plotted on the chart in blue (Pivot Point), red (Downside Stop Loss), and green (Upside Stop Loss), providing traders with essential reference points for their trading strategies.
The provided Pine Script calculates key trading levels for the current candle, including the Pivot Point, Downside Stop Loss, and Upside Stop Loss. The Pivot Point is computed as the average of the previous candle's high, low, and close prices.
Drawdown Dynamics IndicatorDescription :
The Drawdown Dynamics Indicator is a straightforward tool that offers insights into three critical aspects of an asset’s financial performance: Total Max Drawdown, Rolling Period Max Drawdown, and Current Max Drawdown. Inside of the indicator, you can select to view either the rolling period max drawdown or the all-time max drawdown. This is represented by the gray line. The blue line represents the asset's current drawdown.
Rolling Period Max Drawdown is more about a snapshot view, highlighting the maximum loss from a peak to a trough for an adjustable rolling time frame. This is a feature not available with other indicators that exist on TradingView.
Total Max Drawdown gives a broad view, showcasing the all-time deepest decline in an asset’s value.
Current Max Drawdown offers a live update, focusing on the asset's present phase and how it's performing in real-time.
Practical Uses :
The utility of this indicator becomes evident when you start exploring the risks and performance metrics of assets. A notable use of this indicator is in comparing the drawdowns of a trading strategy against the inherent drawdowns of an asset. It helps in painting a clearer picture of risk and performance of both the asset and the strategy.
Risk Understanding : By comparing the strategy drawdown to the asset drawdown, traders get to understand if the risk they’re taking aligns with the asset’s natural risk behavior.
Evaluating Strategy’s Strength : If a strategy can weather the storms of the asset's natural drawdown phases and come out relatively unscathed, it can speak to its strength.
Performance Comparison : It also acts as a benchmark tool. Traders can pit different strategies against each other, using the asset’s drawdown as a baseline, to see which one manages risks better.
Disclaimer : This is not financial advice. Open-source scripts I publish in the community are largely meant to spark ideas that can be used as building blocks for part of a more robust trade management strategy. If you would like to implement a version of any script, I would recommend making significant additions/modifications to the strategy & risk management functions. If you don’t know how to program in Pine, then hire a Pine-coder. We can help!
Open, Open +/- EMA ATR Lines with LabelsThis indicator provides traders with a clear visualization of the opening price and its potential movement range for a specific timeframe, based on the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the Average True Range (ATR).
Features:
Opening Price Line: A green line representing the opening price for the chosen timeframe.
EMA ATR Lines:
An upper blue line, calculated as the opening price plus the EMA of the ATR.
A lower blue line, calculated as the opening price minus the EMA of the ATR.
Labels: Each line comes with a label on its right side, displaying the price level and, for the EMA ATR lines, the distance in pips from the opening price.
Custom Timeframes: Users can select their desired timeframe for calculations, making this tool versatile for different trading strategies.
Usage:
The EMA-smoothed ATR provides a measure of volatility. By plotting this value above and below the opening price, traders get a sense of potential price movement for the selected timeframe. This can be particularly useful for setting stop losses, take profit levels, or identifying breakout points.
For instance, if the price breaks above the upper EMA ATR line, it might indicate a potential upward move, especially if other market conditions align.
Customization:
Timeframe: Choose from various timeframes like 1-minute, 5-minutes, daily, weekly, and more.
ATR Length: Adjust the length of the ATR for more or less sensitivity.
This indicator is designed to offer traders a quick way to gauge potential price movement for their chosen timeframe. By combining the principles of the opening price and volatility measured by the EMA-smoothed ATR, it provides a straightforward yet powerful tool for various trading scenarios.
Trend Gaussian Channels [DeltaAlgo]This Script Introduces The Use Of The Gaussian Channel Concepts
This indicator consists of three lines: a central line that represents the moving average, and an upper and lower band that represent the volatility of the price movements.
The Gaussian channels is a concept consists of an upper & lower bands along with the basis; the mid band. The use of the Gaussian bands are simple, as described below.👇
Use Case:
There are many ways the Gaussian channel indicator can be used!
1. Look for the price to touch or cross the upper/lower bands of the Gaussian Channel Indicator. This indicates that the price has reached an high level of volatility. a reversal or correction may be imminent.
2. Wait for confirmation of the potential reversal or correction. This can be in the form of a bearish or bullish candlestick pattern, or a signal from another technical indicator.
a. For this reason I have implemented some signals that indicate trend shifts & candle colors to clearly display the switching between a bullish sentiment or bearish.
3. Enter a trade in the direction of the reversal or correction. For example, if the price touches the upper band and a bearish candlestick pattern occurs or if you get a bearish signal, enter a short trade. If the price touches the lower band and indicates bullish candlestick pattern or bullish signal, enter a long trade.
Sometimes this band can act as a support & resistance, THIS is not always the case as it is not meant to be used as support & resistance.
Spot-Vol CorrelationSpot-Vol Correlation Script Guide
Purpose:
This TradingView script measures the correlation between percentage changes in the spot price (e.g., for SPY, an ETF that tracks the S&P 500 index) and the changes in volatility (e.g., as indicated by the VIX, the Volatility Index). Its primary objective is to discern whether the relationship between spot price and volatility behaves as expected ("normal" condition) or diverges from the expected pattern ("abnormal" condition).
Normal vs. Abnormal Correlation:
Normal Correlation: Historically, the VIX (or volatility) and the spot price of major indices like the S&P 500 have an inverse relationship. When the spot price of the index goes up, the VIX tends to go down, indicating lower volatility. Conversely, when the index drops, the VIX generally rises, signaling increased volatility.
Abnormal Correlation: There are instances when this inverse relationship doesn't hold, and both the spot price and the VIX move in the same direction. This is considered an "abnormal" condition and might indicate unusual market dynamics, potential uncertainty, or impending shifts in market sentiment.
Using the Script:
Inputs:
First Symbol: This is set by default to VIX, representing volatility. However, users can input any other volatility metric they prefer.
Second Symbol: This is set to SPY by default, representing the spot price of the S&P 500 index. Like the first symbol, users can substitute SPY with any other asset or index of their choice.
Length of Calculation Period: Users can define the lookback period for the correlation calculation. By default, it's set to 10 periods (e.g., days for a daily chart).
Upper & Lower Bounds of Normal Zone: These parameters define the range of correlation values that are considered "normal" or expected. By default, this is set between -0.60 and -1.00.
Visuals:
Correlation Line: The main line plot shows the correlation coefficient between the two input symbols. When this line is within the "normal zone", it indicates that the spot price and volatility are inversely correlated. If it's outside this zone, the correlation is considered "abnormal".
Green Color: Indicates a period when the spot price and VIX are behaving as traditionally expected (i.e., one rises while the other falls).
Red Color: Denotes a period when the spot price and VIX are both moving in the same direction, which is an abnormal condition.
Shaded Area (Normal Zone): The area between the user-defined upper and lower bounds is shaded in green, highlighting the range of "normal" correlation values.
Interpretation:
Monitor the color and position of the correlation line relative to the shaded area:
If the line is green and within the shaded area, the market dynamics are as traditionally expected.
If the line is red or outside the shaded area, users should exercise caution as this indicates a divergence from typical behavior, which can precede significant market moves or heightened uncertainty.
Price Change IndicatorEnglish:
This indicator calculates the percentage change in price from the opening to the high and from the opening to the low for the current candle. It allows users to set a threshold percentage for both price increases and decreases. If the price change exceeds the specified threshold, the indicator generates signals and marks them on the chart. A green triangle indicates a price increase exceeding the set threshold, and a red triangle indicates a price decrease exceeding the set threshold.
Inputs:
% UP: Percentage threshold for a price increase.
% DOWN: Percentage threshold for a price decrease.

Russian:
Этот индикатор рассчитывает процентное изменение цены от открытия до максимума и от открытия до минимума для текущей свечи. Он позволяет установить пороговый процент как для увеличения, так и для уменьшения цены. Если изменение цены превышает установленный порог, индикатор генерирует сигналы и отмечает их на графике. Зеленый треугольник указывает на увеличение цены сверх установленного порога, а красный треугольник - на уменьшение цены сверх установленного порога.
Настройки:
% ВВЕРХ: Пороговый процент для увеличения цены.
% ВНИЗ: Пороговый процент для уменьшения цены.
[Spinn] Average True RangeThe "Average True Range" indicator is a popular tool that measures price volatility. In this modified indicator, I present two methods of calculating ATR: the outdated classical one based on RMA (EMA, SMA, WMA), and the modernized one using the Super Smoother filter.
Why has exponential smoothing become outdated?
Exponential smoothing (EMA) has drawbacks, especially when it comes to identifying cyclical components in the data (and RMA is a variant of EMA). EMA creates phase shifts and distortions, making it less predictable and accurate in tracking real price movements. Modern filters, such as Super Smoother, offer a higher degree of adaptability and precision while ensuring significantly less lag, better smoothness, and superior cycle detection.
Why use more contemporary filters like Super Smoother?
The Super Smoother filter combines exponential smoothing and trigonometric functions for more accurate and smooth tracking of price movements. This filter enhances cycle tracking and reduces the lag often found when using EMA. As a result, signals based on Super Smoother are often more precise and representative of real price movements.
Drawbacks of other smoothing filters commonly used with ATR:
SMA. The lag is (N-1)/2, where N = period. This is terrible.
WMA. According to John F. Ehlers, "It appears that the WMA was invented by a trader who did not have a firm grasp of filter theory in hopes of reducing lag". It has been proven that WMA has worse suppression than the equivalent SMA, and WMA has more delay in the passband than the equivalent EMA. In short, WMA has drawbacks but no advantages compared to other popular moving averages.
It is also a good idea to use the median to average the results.
Test, experiment, use!
