MACD Multi-Timeframe x4 (Custom Params)■About this indicator
・This indicator can display 4 MACD lines for different time frames. (Multi-time framework)
・The color of the MACD line changes when the MACD has a golden or dead cross.
All MACDs can be set individually for long time period, short time period, and signal smoothing.
All MACDs can show/hide MACD lines, signal lines, histograms, and select colors.
■Explanation of effective usage
By displaying MACDs in multiple time frames, you can time the push.
For example, let's say you have three MACDs: one weekly, one daily, and one hour.
With the weekly and daily MACDs continuing to golden cross, the timing for the hourly MACD to golden cross is considered a push opportunity.
An example chart is attached below for your reference.
The area circled vertically is a push-buying opportunity.

GLB Breakout IndicatorWhat is a Green Line Breakout (GLB)?
A GLB happens when a stock breaks above its previous all-time high that was standing for at least 3 months (or more).
A Green Line is drawn at that previous high price.
When the stock closes above that Green Line, it's called a breakout.
For the breakout to be successful, the stock should stay above that green line (the breakout price) in the following days/weeks.
How to Understand It in Your Charts:
ADMA:
The Green Line was at 23.64 (previous high).
Now it has closed above it at 24.51.
It must stay above 23.64 to confirm that it’s a successful breakout.
TTWO:
TTWO had a Green Line at around 214.91.
It broke above it and is now (29 Apr 2025) at 225.55, holding well above the Green Line.
This is a positive sign — buyers are supporting it after the breakout.

Quad Rotation StochasticQuad Rotation Stochastic
The Quad Rotation Stochastic is a powerful and unique momentum oscillator that combines four different stochastic setups into one tool, providing an incredibly detailed view of market conditions. This multi-timeframe stochastic approach helps traders better anticipate trend continuations, reversals, and momentum shifts with greater precision than traditional single stochastic indicators.
Why this indicator is useful:
Multi-layered Momentum Analysis: Instead of relying on one stochastic, this script tracks four independent stochastic readings, smoothing out noise and confirming stronger signals.
Advanced Divergence Detection: It automatically identifies bullish and bearish divergences for each stochastic, helping traders spot potential reversals early.
Background Color Alerts: When a configurable number (e.g., 3 or 4) of the stochastics agree in direction and position (overbought/oversold), the background colors green (bullish) or red (bearish) to give instant visual cues.
ABCD Pattern Recognition: The script recognizes "shield" patterns when Stochastic 4 remains stuck at extreme levels (above 90 or below 10) for a set time, warning of potential trend continuation setups.
Super Signal Alerts: If all four stochastics align in extreme conditions and slope in the same direction, the indicator plots a special "Super Signal," offering high-confidence entry opportunities.
Why this indicator is unique:
Quad Confirmation Logic: Combining four different stochastics makes this tool much less prone to false signals compared to using a single stochastic.
Customizable Divergence Coloring: Traders can choose to have divergence lines automatically match the stochastic color for clear visual association.
Adaptive ABCD Shields: Innovative use of bar counting while a stochastic remains extreme acts as a "shield," offering a unique way to filter out minor fake-outs.
Flexible Configuration: Each stochastic's sensitivity, divergence settings, and visual styling can be fully customized, allowing traders to adapt it to their own strategy and asset.
Example Usage: Trading Bitcoin with Quad Rotation Stochastic
When trading Bitcoin (BTCUSD), you might set the minimum count (minCount) to 3, meaning three out of four stochastics must be in agreement to trigger a background color.
If the background turns green, and you notice an ABCD Bullish Shield (Green X), you might look for bullish candlestick patterns or moving average crossovers to enter a long trade.
Conversely, if the background turns red and a Super Down Signal appears, it suggests high probability for further downside, giving you strong confirmation to either short BTC or avoid entering new longs.
By combining divergence signals with background colors and the ABCD shields, the Quad Rotation Stochastic provides a layered confirmation system that gives traders greater confidence in their entries and exits — particularly in fast-moving, volatile markets like Bitcoin.

RSI Strength & Consolidation Zones (Zeiierman)█ Overview
RSI Strength & Consolidation Zones (Zeiierman) is a hybrid momentum and volatility visualization tool that blends enhanced RSI interpretation with ADX-driven consolidation detection. This indicator doesn't just show where RSI is trending — it interprets how strong that trend is, when that strength changes, and where the market may be consolidating in anticipation of breakout movement.
Using a combination of Kalman-filtered RSI, custom-built DMI/ADX, and low-volatility zone recognition, it gives traders a dynamic RSI with strength-based coloring, while also highlighting consolidation zones to spot breakout opportunities.
█ Its uniqueness
Traditional RSI indicators lack context. They may show you when the market is overbought or oversold, but they won’t tell you how strong that condition is, or whether it’s likely to result in continuation or consolidation.
This tool aims to solve that by introducing adaptive strength metrics and structural compression zones, allowing traders to anticipate when the market is likely preparing for a move.
█ How It Works
⚪ Enhanced RSI
Combines traditional RSI and a custom RSI implementation
Smooths both through a Kalman filter for trend direction
Final RSI line reflects smoothed consensus between manual and built-in RSI
Adds an RSI + Strength overlay to show when the directional conviction is increasing
⚪ ADX-Driven Strength Layer
Directional Movement Index (DMI) is calculated both manually and with built-in smoothing
The average ADX value is used to calculate a strength modifier
When ADX exceeds 20, RSI is dynamically enhanced or dampened to reflect directional force
Resulting visual: RSI appears stronger or weaker based on confirmed trend conditions
⚪ Consolidation Zone Detection
When ADX falls below 20, the indicator enters a consolidation zone state
Boxes are drawn dynamically to contain the price within these low-volatility structures
Once the price breaks out of the zone, the indicator plots a breakout signal (▲ or ▼)
⚪ Breakouts
Breakout markers are placed at the first close outside the consolidation box
These signals serve as early indicators for potential trend continuation or reversal
█ How to Use
⚪ Confirm Momentum Strength
Use the RSI + Strength line to determine whether current momentum is backed by trend conviction. If strength expands alongside rising RSI, the move has confirmation.
⚪ Consolidations Zones
When RSI is around the midline, and a consolidation box appears, expect lower volatility and a range-bound market, followed by a breakout.
⚪ Use Breakout Signals for Entry
Look for ▲ or ▼ markers as early triggers. These often coincide with volume expansions or structural breaks.
█ Settings Explained
RSI Length – Number of bars used for RSI. Shorter = more sensitive.
DMI Length – Used in both custom and built-in ADX/DI calculations.
ADX Smoothing – Smooths the trend strength signal. Higher values = smoother strength detection.
Trend Confirmation (Filter Strength) – Adjusts the responsiveness of the Kalman filter.

Dskyz Options Flow Flux (OFF) - FuturesDskyz Options Flow Flux (OFF) - Futures
*This is a repost due to moderator intervention on use of ™ in my scripts. I'm in the process of getting this rectified. This was originally posted around mid-night CDT.
🧠 The Dskyz Options Flow Flux (OFF) - Futures indicator is a game changer for futures traders looking to tap into institutional activity with limited resources. Designed for TradingView this tool simulates options flow data (call/put volume and open interest) for futures contracts like MNQ MES NQ and ES giving u actionable insights through volume spike detection volatility adjustments and stunning visuals like aurora flux bands and round number levels. Whether u’re a beginner learning the ropes or a pro hunting for an edge this indicator delivers real time market sentiment and key price levels to boost ur trading game
Key Features
⚡ Simulated Options Flow: Breaks down call/put volume and open interest using market momentum and volatility
📈 Spike Detection: Spots big moves in volume and open interest with customizable thresholds
🧠 Volatility Filter: Adapts to market conditions using ATR for smarter spike detection
✨ Aurora Flux Bands: Glows with market sentiment showing u bullish or bearish vibes at a glance
🎯 Round Number Levels: Marks key psychological levels where big players might step in
📊 Interactive Dashboard: Real time metrics like sentiment score and volatility factor right on ur chart
🚨 Alerts: Get notified of bullish or bearish spikes so u never miss a move
How It Works
🧠 This indicator is built to make complex options flow analysis simple even with the constraints of Pine Script. Here’s the step by step:
Simulated Volume Data (Dynamic Split):
Pulls daily volume for ur chosen futures contract (MNQ1! MES1! NQ1! ES1!)
Splits it into call and put volume based on momentum (ta.mom) and volatility (ATR vs its 20 period average)
Estimates open interest (OI) for calls and puts (1.15x for calls 1.1x for puts)
Formula: callRatio = 0.5 + (momentum / close) * 10 + (volatility - 1) * 0.1 capped between 0.3 and 0.7
Why It Matters: Mimics how big players might split their trades giving u a peek into institutional sentiment
Spike Detection:
Compares current volume/OI to short term (lookbackShort) and long term (lookbackLong) averages
Flags spikes when volume/OI exceeds the average by ur set threshold (spikeThreshold for regular highConfidenceThreshold for strong)
Adjusts for volatility so u’re not fooled by choppy markets
Output: optionsSignal (2 for strong bullish -2 for strong bearish 1 for bullish -1 for bearish 0 for neutral)
Why It Matters: Pinpoints where big money might be stepping in
Volatility Filter:
Uses ATR (10 periods) and its 20 period average to calculate a volatility factor (volFactor = ATR / avgAtr)
Scales spike thresholds based on market conditions (volAdjustedThreshold = spikeThreshold * max(1 volFactor * volFilter))
Why It Matters: Keeps ur signals reliable whether the market is calm or wild
Sentiment Score:
Calculates a call/put ratio (callVolume / putVolume) and adjusts for volatility
Converts it to a 0 to 100 score (higher = bullish lower = bearish)
Formula: sentimentScore = min(max((volAdjustedSentiment - 1) * 50 0) 100)
Why It Matters: Gives u a quick read on market bias
Round Number Detection:
Finds the nearest round number (e.g. 100 for MNQ1! 50 for MES1!)
Checks for volume spikes (volume > 3 period SMA * spikeThreshold) and if price is close (within ATR * atrMultiplier)
Updates the top activity level every 15 minutes when significant activity is detected
Why It Matters: Highlights psychological levels where price often reacts
Visuals and Dashboard:
Combines aurora flux bands glow effects round number lines and a dashboard to make insights pop (see Visual Elements below)
Plots triangles for call/put spikes (green/red for strong lime/orange for regular)
Sets up alerts for key market moves

Express Generator StrategyExpress Generator Strategy
Pine Script™ v6
The Express Generator Strategy is an algorithmic trading system that harnesses confluence from multiple technical indicators to optimize trade entries and dynamic risk management. Developed in Pine Script v6, it is designed to operate within a user-defined backtesting period—ensuring that trades are executed only during chosen historical windows for targeted analysis.
How It Works:
- Entry Conditions:
The strategy relies on a dual confirmation approach:- A moving average crossover system where a fast (default 9-period SMA) crossing above or below a slower (default 21-period SMA) average signals a potential trend reversal.
- MACD confirmation; trades are only initiated when the MACD line crosses its signal line in the direction of the moving average signal.
- An RSI filter refines these signals by preventing entries when the market might be overextended—ensuring that long entries only occur when the RSI is below an overbought level (default 70) and short entries when above an oversold level (default 30).
- Risk Management & Dynamic Position Sizing:
The strategy takes a calculated approach to risk by enabling the adjustment of position sizes using:- A pre-defined percentage of equity risk per trade (default 1%, adjustable between 0.5% to 3%).
- A stop-loss set in pips (default 100 pips, with customizable ranges), which is then adjusted by market volatility measured through the ATR.
- Trailing stops (default 50 pips) to help protect profits as the market moves favorably.
This combination of volatility-adjusted risk and equity-based position sizing aims to harmonize trade exposure with prevailing market conditions.
- Backtest Period Flexibility:
Users can define the start and end dates for backtesting (e.g., January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2025). This ensures that the strategy only opens trades within the intended analysis window. Moreover, if the strategy is still holding a position outside this period, it automatically closes all trades to prevent unwanted exposure.
- Visual Insights:
For clarity, the strategy plots the fast (blue) and slow (red) moving averages directly on the chart, allowing for visual confirmation of crossovers and trend shifts.
By integrating multiple technical indicators with robust risk management and adaptable position sizing, the Express Generator Strategy provides a comprehensive framework for capturing trending moves while prudently managing downside risk. It’s ideally suited for traders looking to combine systematic entries with a disciplined and dynamic risk approach.
Clenow MomentumClenow Momentum Method
The Clenow Momentum Method, developed by Andreas Clenow, is a systematic, quantitative trading strategy focused on capturing medium- to long-term price trends in financial markets. Popularized through Clenow’s book, Stocks on the Move: Beating the Market with Hedge Fund Momentum Strategies, the method leverages momentum—an empirically observed phenomenon where assets that have performed well in the recent past tend to continue performing well in the near future.
Theoretical Foundation
Momentum investing is grounded in behavioral finance and market inefficiencies. Investors often exhibit herding behavior, underreact to new information, or chase trends, causing prices to trend beyond fundamental values. Clenow’s method builds on academic research, such as Jegadeesh and Titman (1993), which demonstrated that stocks with high returns over 3–12 months outperform those with low returns over similar periods.
Clenow’s approach specifically uses **annualized momentum**, calculated as the rate of return over a lookback period (typically 90 days), annualized to reflect a yearly percentage. The formula is:
Momentum=(((Close N periods agoCurrent Close)^N252)−1)×100
- Current Close: The most recent closing price.
- Close N periods ago: The closing price N periods back (e.g., 90 days).
- N: Lookback period (commonly 90 days).
- 252: Approximate trading days in a year for annualization.
This metric ranks stocks by their momentum, prioritizing those with the strongest upward trends. Clenow’s method also incorporates risk management, diversification, and volatility adjustments to enhance robustness.
Methodology
The Clenow Momentum Method involves the following steps:
1. Universe Selection:
- A broad universe of liquid stocks is chosen, often from major indices (e.g., S&P 500, Nasdaq 100) or global exchanges.
- Filters should exclude illiquid stocks (e.g., low average daily volume) or those with extreme volatility.
2. Momentum Calculation:
- Stocks are ranked based on their annualized momentum over a lookback period (typically 90 days, though 60–120 days can be common tests).
- The top-ranked stocks (e.g., top 10–20%) are selected for the portfolio.
3. Volatility Adjustment (Optional):
- Clenow sometimes adjusts momentum scores by volatility (e.g., dividing by the standard deviation of returns) to favor stocks with smoother trends.
- This reduces exposure to erratic price movements.
4. Portfolio Construction:
- A diversified portfolio of 10–25 stocks is constructed, with equal or volatility-weighted allocations.
- Position sizes are often adjusted based on risk (e.g., 1% of capital per position).
5. Rebalancing:
- The portfolio is rebalanced periodically (e.g., weekly or monthly) to maintain exposure to high-momentum stocks.
- Stocks falling below a momentum threshold are replaced with higher-ranked candidates.
6. Risk Management:
- Stop-losses or trailing stops may be applied to limit downside risk.
- Diversification across sectors reduces concentration risk.
Implementation in TradingView
Key features include:
- Customizable Lookback: Users can adjust the lookback period in pinescript (e.g., 90 days) to align with Clenow’s methodology.
- Visual Cues: Background colors (green for positive, red for negative momentum) and a zero line help identify trend strength.
- Integration with Screeners: TradingView’s stock screener can filter high-momentum stocks, which can then be analyzed with the custom indicator.
Strengths
1. Simplicity: The method is straightforward, relying on a single metric (momentum) that’s easy to calculate and interpret.
2. Empirical Support: Backed by decades of academic research and real-world hedge fund performance.
3. Adaptability: Applicable to stocks, ETFs, or other asset classes, with flexible lookback periods.
4. Risk Management: Diversification and periodic rebalancing reduce idiosyncratic risk.
5. TradingView Integration: Pine Script implementation enables real-time visualization, enhancing decision-making for stocks like NVDA or SPY.
Limitations
1. Mean Reversion Risk: Momentum can reverse sharply in bear markets or during sector rotations, leading to drawdowns.
2. Transaction Costs: Frequent rebalancing increases trading costs, especially for retail traders with high commissions. This is not as prevalent with commission free trading becoming more available.
3. Overfitting Risk: Over-optimizing lookback periods or filters can reduce out-of-sample performance.
4. Market Conditions: Underperforms in low-momentum or highly volatile markets.
Practical Applications
The Clenow Momentum Method is ideal for:
Retail Traders: Use TradingView’s screener to identify high-momentum stocks, then apply the Pine Script indicator to confirm trends.
Portfolio Managers: Build diversified momentum portfolios, rebalancing monthly to capture trends.
Swing Traders: Combine with volume filters to target short-term breakouts in high-momentum stocks.
Cross-Platform Workflow: Integrate with Python scanners to rank stocks, then visualize on TradingView for trade execution.
Comparison to Other Strategies
Vs. Minervini’s VCP: Clenow’s method is purely quantitative, while Minervini’s Volatility Contraction Pattern (your April 11, 2025 query) combines momentum with chart patterns. Clenow is more systematic but less discretionary.
Vs. Mean Reversion: Momentum bets on trend continuation, unlike mean reversion strategies that target oversold conditions.
Vs. Value Investing: Momentum outperforms in bull markets but may lag value strategies in recovery phases.
Conclusion
The Clenow Momentum Method is a robust, evidence-based strategy that capitalizes on price trends while managing risk through diversification and rebalancing. Its simplicity and adaptability make it accessible to retail traders, especially when implemented on platforms like TradingView with custom Pine Script indicators. Traders must be mindful of transaction costs, mean reversion risks, and market conditions. By combining Clenow’s momentum with volume filters and alerts, you can optimize its application for swing or position trading.
Momentum + Keltner Stochastic Combo)The Momentum-Keltner-Stochastic Combination Strategy: A Technical Analysis and Empirical Validation
This study presents an advanced algorithmic trading strategy that implements a hybrid approach between momentum-based price dynamics and relative positioning within a volatility-adjusted Keltner Channel framework. The strategy utilizes an innovative "Keltner Stochastic" concept as its primary decision-making factor for market entries and exits, while implementing a dynamic capital allocation model with risk-based stop-loss mechanisms. Empirical testing demonstrates the strategy's potential for generating alpha in various market conditions through the combination of trend-following momentum principles and mean-reversion elements within defined volatility thresholds.
1. Introduction
Financial market trading increasingly relies on the integration of various technical indicators for identifying optimal trading opportunities (Lo et al., 2000). While individual indicators are often compromised by market noise, combinations of complementary approaches have shown superior performance in detecting significant market movements (Murphy, 1999; Kaufman, 2013). This research introduces a novel algorithmic strategy that synthesizes momentum principles with volatility-adjusted envelope analysis through Keltner Channels.
2. Theoretical Foundation
2.1 Momentum Component
The momentum component of the strategy builds upon the seminal work of Jegadeesh and Titman (1993), who demonstrated that stocks which performed well (poorly) over a 3 to 12-month period continue to perform well (poorly) over subsequent months. As Moskowitz et al. (2012) further established, this time-series momentum effect persists across various asset classes and time frames. The present strategy implements a short-term momentum lookback period (7 bars) to identify the prevailing price direction, consistent with findings by Chan et al. (2000) that shorter-term momentum signals can be effective in algorithmic trading systems.
2.2 Keltner Channels
Keltner Channels, as formalized by Chester Keltner (1960) and later modified by Linda Bradford Raschke, represent a volatility-based envelope system that plots bands at a specified distance from a central exponential moving average (Keltner, 1960; Raschke & Connors, 1996). Unlike traditional Bollinger Bands that use standard deviation, Keltner Channels typically employ Average True Range (ATR) to establish the bands' distance from the central line, providing a smoother volatility measure as established by Wilder (1978).
2.3 Stochastic Oscillator Principles
The strategy incorporates a modified stochastic oscillator approach, conceptually similar to Lane's Stochastic (Lane, 1984), but applied to a price's position within Keltner Channels rather than standard price ranges. This creates what we term "Keltner Stochastic," measuring the relative position of price within the volatility-adjusted channel as a percentage value.
3. Strategy Methodology
3.1 Entry and Exit Conditions
The strategy employs a contrarian approach within the channel framework:
Long Entry Condition:
Close price > Close price periods ago (momentum filter)
KeltnerStochastic < threshold (oversold within channel)
Short Entry Condition:
Close price < Close price periods ago (momentum filter)
KeltnerStochastic > threshold (overbought within channel)
Exit Conditions:
Exit long positions when KeltnerStochastic > threshold
Exit short positions when KeltnerStochastic < threshold
This methodology aligns with research by Brock et al. (1992) on the effectiveness of trading range breakouts with confirmation filters.
3.2 Risk Management
Stop-loss mechanisms are implemented using fixed price movements (1185 index points), providing definitive risk boundaries per trade. This approach is consistent with findings by Sweeney (1988) that fixed stop-loss systems can enhance risk-adjusted returns when properly calibrated.
3.3 Dynamic Position Sizing
The strategy implements an equity-based position sizing algorithm that increases or decreases contract size based on cumulative performance:
$ContractSize = \min(baseContracts + \lfloor\frac{\max(profitLoss, 0)}{equityStep}\rfloor - \lfloor\frac{|\min(profitLoss, 0)|}{equityStep}\rfloor, maxContracts)$
This adaptive approach follows modern portfolio theory principles (Markowitz, 1952) and Kelly criterion concepts (Kelly, 1956), scaling exposure proportionally to account equity.
4. Empirical Performance Analysis

SMT SwiftEdge PowerhouseSMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse: Precision Trading with Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones
The SMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders identify high-probability entry points during the most active market sessions—London and New York. By combining Smart Money Technique (SMT) Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Zones, this script provides a unique and cohesive strategy for capturing market reversals with precision. Whether you're a scalper or a swing trader, this indicator offers clear visual signals to enhance your trading decisions on any timeframe.
What Does This Script Do?
This script integrates three key concepts to identify potential trading opportunities:
SMT Divergence:
SMT Divergence compares the price action of two correlated assets (e.g., Nasdaq and S&P 500 futures) to detect hidden market reversals. When one asset makes a higher high while the other makes a lower high (bearish divergence), or one makes a lower low while the other makes a higher low (bullish divergence), it signals a potential reversal. This technique leverages institutional "smart money" behavior to anticipate market shifts.
Liquidity Grabs:
Liquidity Grabs occur when price breaks above recent highs or below recent lows on higher timeframes (5m and 15m), often triggering stop-loss orders from retail traders. These breakouts are identified using pivot points and confirm institutional activity, setting the stage for a reversal. The script focuses on liquidity grabs during the London and New York sessions for maximum market activity.
Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Zones:
OTE Zones are Fibonacci-based retracement areas (e.g., 61.8%) calculated after a liquidity grab. These zones highlight where price is likely to retrace before continuing in the direction of the reversal, offering a high-probability entry point. The script adjusts the width of these zones using the Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to market volatility.
By combining these components, the script identifies when institutional activity (liquidity grabs) aligns with market reversals (SMT divergence) and pinpoints precise entry points (OTE zones) during high-liquidity sessions.
Why Combine These Components?
The integration of SMT Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones creates a robust trading system for several reasons:
Synergy of Institutional Signals: SMT Divergence and Liquidity Grabs both reflect "smart money" behavior—divergence shows hidden reversals, while liquidity grabs confirm institutional intent to trap retail traders. Together, they provide a strong foundation for identifying high-probability setups.
Session-Based Precision: Focusing on the London and New York sessions ensures signals occur during periods of high volatility and liquidity, increasing their reliability.
Precision Entries with OTE: After confirming a setup with divergence and liquidity grabs, OTE zones provide a clear entry area, reducing guesswork and improving trade accuracy.
Adaptability: The script works on any timeframe, with adjustable settings for signal sensitivity, session times, and Fibonacci levels, making it versatile for different trading styles.
This combination makes the script unique by aligning institutional insights with actionable entry points, tailored to the most active market hours.
How to Use the Script
Setup:
Add the script to your chart (works on any timeframe, e.g., 1m, 5m, 15m).
Configure the settings in the indicator's inputs:
Session Settings: Adjust the start/end times for London and New York sessions (default: London 8-11 UTC, New York 13-16 UTC). You can disable session restrictions if desired.
Asset Settings: Set the primary and secondary assets for SMT Divergence (default: NQ1! and ES1!). Ensure the assets are correlated.
Signal Settings: Adjust the lookback period, ATR period, and signal sensitivity (Low/Medium/High) to control the frequency of signals.
OTE Settings: Choose the Fibonacci level for OTE zones (default: 61.8%).
Visual Settings: Enable/disable OTE zones, SMT labels, and debug labels for troubleshooting.
Interpreting Signals:
Blue Circles: Indicate a liquidity grab (price breaking a 5m or 15m pivot high/low), marking the start of a potential setup.
Blue OTE Zones: Appear after a liquidity grab, showing the retracement area (e.g., 61.8% Fibonacci level) where price is likely to enter for a reversal trade. The label "OTE Trigger 5m/15m" confirms the direction (Short/Long) and session.
Green/Red Entry Boxes: Mark precise entry points when price enters the OTE zone and confirms the SMT Divergence. Green boxes indicate a long entry, red boxes a short entry.
Trading Example:
On a 1m chart, a blue circle appears when price breaks a 5m pivot high during the London session.
A blue OTE zone forms, showing a retracement area (e.g., 61.8% Fibonacci level) with the label "OTE Trigger 5m/15m (Short, London)".
Price retraces into the OTE zone, and a red "Short Entry" box appears, confirming a bearish SMT Divergence.
Enter a short trade at the red box, with a stop-loss above the OTE zone and a take-profit at the next support level.
Originality and Utility
The SMT SwiftEdge Powerhouse stands out by merging SMT Divergence, Liquidity Grabs, and OTE Zones into a single, session-focused indicator. Unlike traditional indicators that focus on one aspect of price action, this script combines institutional reversal signals with precise entry zones, tailored to the most active market hours. Its adaptability across timeframes, customizable settings, and clear visual cues make it a versatile tool for traders seeking to capitalize on smart money movements with confidence.
Tips for Best Results
Use on correlated assets like NQ1! (Nasdaq futures) and ES1! (S&P 500 futures) for accurate SMT Divergence.
Test on lower timeframes (1m, 5m) for scalping or higher timeframes (15m, 1H) for swing trading.
Adjust the "Signal Sensitivity" to "High" for more signals or "Low" for fewer, high-quality setups.
Enable "Show Debug Labels" if signals are not appearing as expected, to troubleshoot pivot points and liquidity grabs.
Volume-Price Momentum IndicatorVolume-Price Momentum Indicator (VPMI)
Overview
The Volume-Price Momentum Indicator (VPMI), developed by Kevin Svenson , is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to identify strong bullish and bearish momentum in price movements, driven by volume dynamics. By analyzing price changes and volume surges over a user-defined lookback period, VPMI highlights potential trend shifts and continuation patterns through a smoothed histogram, optional labels, and background highlights. Ideal for traders seeking to capture momentum-driven opportunities, VPMI is suitable for various markets, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.

Slope Change Rate Volume ConfirmationSlope Change Rate Volume Confirmation (SCR)
█ OVERVIEW
This indicator identifies moments where the price trend is not just moving, but accelerating (i.e., the rate of change of the trend's slope is increasing or decreasing significantly), and crucially, whether this acceleration is confirmed by high volume . The core idea is that price acceleration backed by strong volume suggests higher conviction behind the move, potentially indicating the start or continuation of a strong thrust. Conversely, acceleration without volume might be less reliable.
It calculates the slope (velocity) of price movement, then the change in that slope (acceleration). This acceleration is normalized to a -100 to 100 range for consistent threshold application. Finally, it checks if significant acceleration coincides with volume exceeding its recent average.
█ HOW IT WORKS
The indicator follows these steps:
1. Slope Calculation (Velocity):
Calculates the slope of a linear regression line based on the input `Source` over the `Slope Calculation Length`. This represents the instantaneous rate of change or "velocity" of the price trend.
// Calculate linear regression slope (current value - previous value)
slope = ta.linreg(src, slopeLen, 0) - ta.linreg(src, slopeLen, 1)
2. Acceleration Calculation & Normalization:
Determines the bar-to-bar change in the calculated `slope` (`slope - slope `). This raw change represents the "acceleration". This value is then immediately normalized to a fixed range of -100 to +100 using the internal `f_normalizeMinMax` function over the `Volume SMA Length` lookback period. Normalization allows the `Acceleration Threshold` input to be applied consistently.
// Calculate slope change rate (acceleration) and normalize it
// f_normalizeMinMax(source, length, newMin, newMax)
accel = f_normalizeMinMax(slope - slope , volSmaLen, -100, 100)
*( Note: `f_normalizeMinMax` is a standard min-max scaling function adapted to the -100/100 range, included within the script's code.*)*
3. Volume Confirmation Check:
Calculates the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume over the `Volume SMA Length`. It then checks if the current bar's volume is significantly higher than this average, defined by exceeding the average multiplied by the `Volume Multiplier Threshold`.
// Calculate average volume
avgVolume = ta.sma(volume, volSmaLen)
// Determine if current volume is significantly high
isHighVolume = volume > avgVolume * volMultiplier
4. Confirmation Signals:
Combines the normalized acceleration and volume check to generate the final confirmation boolean flags:
// Bullish: Price is accelerating upwards (accel > threshold) AND volume confirms
confirmBullishAccel = accel > accelThreshold and isHighVolume
// Bearish: Price is accelerating downwards (accel < -threshold) AND volume confirms
confirmBearishAccel = accel < -accelThreshold and isHighVolume
█ HOW TO USE
Confirmation Filter: The primary intended use is to filter entry signals from another strategy. Only consider long entries when `confirmBullishAccel` is true, or short entries when `confirmBearishAccel` is true. This helps ensure you are entering during periods of strong, volume-backed momentum.
// Example Filter Logic
longEntry = yourPrimaryBuySignal and confirmBullishAccel
shortEntry = yourPrimarySellSignal and confirmBearishAccel
Momentum Identification: High absolute values of the plotted `Acceleration` (especially when confirmed by the shapes) indicate strong directional conviction.
Potential Exhaustion/Divergence: Consider instances where price accelerates significantly (large absolute `accel` values) without volume confirmation (`isHighVolume` is false). This *might* suggest weakening momentum or potential exhaustion, although this requires further analysis.
█ INPUTS
Slope Calculation Length: Lookback period for the linear regression slope calculation.
Volume SMA Length: Lookback period for the Volume SMA and also for the normalization range of the acceleration calculation.
Volume Multiplier Threshold: Factor times average volume to define 'high volume'. (e.g., 1.5 means > 150% of average volume).
Acceleration Threshold: The minimum absolute value the normalized acceleration (-100 to 100 range) must reach to trigger a confirmation signal (when combined with volume).
Source: The price source (e.g., close, HLC3) used for the slope calculation.
█ VISUALIZATION
The indicator plots in a separate pane:
Acceleration Plot: A column chart showing the normalized acceleration (-100 to 100). Columns are colored dynamically based on acceleration's direction (positive/negative) and change (increasing/decreasing).
Threshold Lines: White horizontal dashed lines drawn at the positive and negative `Acceleration Threshold` levels.
Confirmation Shapes:
Green Upward Triangle (▲) below the bar when Bullish Acceleration is confirmed by volume (`confirmBullishAccel` is true).
Red Downward Triangle (▼) above the bar when Bearish Acceleration is confirmed by volume (`confirmBearishAccel` is true).
█ SUMMARY
The SCR indicator is a tool designed to highlight periods of significant price acceleration that are validated by increased market participation (high volume). It can serve as a valuable filter for momentum-based trading strategies by helping to distinguish potentially strong moves from weaker ones. As with any indicator, use it as part of a comprehensive analysis framework and always practice sound risk management.
