Volumetric Tensegrity🧮 Volumetric Tensegrity unifies two of the Leading Indicator suite's critical engines — ZVOL ( volume anomaly detection ) and OBVX ( directional conviction ). Originally designed as a structural economizer for traders navigating strict indicator limits (e.g. < 10 slots per chart), it was forced to evolve beyond that constraint simply to fulfill it, albeit with a difference. The fatal flaw of traditional fusion, where two metrics are blended mathematically, is that they lose scale integrity (i.e. meaning). VTense encodes optical tensegrity to scale the amplitude of the ZVOL histogram and the slope of the OBVX spread independently, so that expansion and direction may coexist without either dominating the frame.
🧬 Tensegrity , by definition, is an intelligent design principle where elements in compression are suspended within a network of continuous tension, forming a stable, self-supporting structure . Originally conceived in esoteric biomorphology (c.f. Da Vinci, Snelson, Casteneda), tensegrity balances force through opposition, not rigidity. Applied to financial markets, Volumetric Tensegrity captures this same principle: price compresses, volume expands, conviction builds or fades — yet structure holds through the interplay. The result is not a prediction engine, but a pressure field — one that visualizes where structure might bend, break, or rebound based on how volume breathes.
🗜️ Rather than layering multiple indicators and consuming precious chart space, VTense frees up room for complementary overlays like momentum mapping, liquidity tiers, or volatility phase detection — making it ideal for modular traders operating in tight technical real estate.
🧠 Core Logic - VTense separates and preserves two essential structural forces:
• ZVOL Histogram : A Z-score-based expansion map that measures current volume deviation from its historical average. It reveals buildup zones, dormant stretches, and breakout pressure — regardless of price behavior.
• OBVX Spread : A directional conviction curve that tracks the difference between On-Balance Volume and its volume-weighted fast trend. It shows whether the crowd is leaning in (accumulation/distribution) or backing off.
🔊 ZVOL controls the amplitude of the histogram, while OBVX controls the curvature and slope of the spread. Without sacrificing breathing behavior or analytical depth, VTense provides a compact yet dynamic lens to track both expansion pressure and directional bias within a single footprint.
🌊 Volumetric Tensegrity forecasts breakout readiness, trend fatigue, and compression zones by measuring the volatility within volume . Unlike traditional tools that track volatility of price, this indicator reveals when effort becomes unstable — signaling inflection points before price reacts. Designed to decode rhythm shifts at the volume level, it operates as a pre-ignition scanner that thrives on low-timeframe charts (15m and under) while scaling effectively to 1H for validation.
🪖 From Generals to Scouts
👀 When used jointly, ZVOL + OBVX act as the general : deep-field analysts confirming stress, commitment, or exhaustion. VTense , by contrast, functions as a scout — capturing subtle buildup and alignment before structure fully reveals itself. The indicator aims to be a literal vanguard, establishing a position that can be confirmed or flexibly abandoned when the higher authority arrives to evaluate.
🥂 Use the ZVOL + OBVX pair when :
• You need independent axis control and manual dissection
• You’re building long-form confluence setups
• You have more indicator slots than you need
🔎 Use VTense when :
• You need compact clarity across multiple instruments
• You’re prioritizing confluence _detection_ over granular separation
• You’re building efficient multi-layered systems under slot constraints
🏗️ Structural Behavior and Interpretation
🫁 Z VOL Respiration Histogram : Structural Effort vs Baseline
🔵 Compression Coil – volume volatility is low and stable; the market is coiling
🟢 Steady Rhythm – volume is healthy but unremarkable; balanced participation
🟡 Passive/Absorbed Effort – expansion failing to manifest; watch for reversal
🟠 Clean Expansion – actionable volatility rise backed by structure
🔴 Volatile Blowout – chaos, climax; likely end-phase or fakeout
⚖️ ZVOL Respiration measures how hard the crowd is pressing — not just that volume is rising, but how statistically abnormal the surge is. Because it is rescaled proportionally to OBVX, the amplitude of the histogram reflects structural urgency without overwhelming the visual field.
🖐️ OBVX Spread : Real-Time Directional Conviction Behind Price Moves
🔑 The curvature of the spread reveals not just directional bias but crowd temp o: sharp slopes = urgent transitions; gradual slopes = building structural shifts. Curvature is key: sharp OBVX slope = urgency; gentle arcs = controlled drift or indecision.
• Green Rising : Accumulation — upward pressure from real buyers
• Red Falling : Distribution — sell pressure, downward slope
• Flat Curves : Transitional → uncertainty, microstructure digestion
🎭 Synchronized vs Divergent Behavior
⏱️ Synchronized (high-confluence) : often precedes structural breakouts, with internal conviction clearly visible before price resolves.
• ZVOL expands (yellow/orange/red) and OBVX climbs steeply green = strong bullish pressure
• ZVOL expands while OBVX steepens red = growing sell-side intent
🪤 Divergent (conflict tension) : flags potential traps, fakeouts, and liquidity sweeps.
• ZVOL expands sharply, but OBVX flattens or opposes → reactive expansion without crowd commitment
⛔️ Latent Drift + Structural Holding Patterns : tensegrity in action — the market holds tension without directional release.
• ZVOL compresses (blue) + OBVX meanders near zero → structure is resting, building up energy
• After prolonged drift, expect violent asymmetry when balance finally breaks
📚 Phase Interpretation: Dynamic Structural Read
• 1️⃣ Quiet Coil : Histogram flat, OBVX flat → no urgency
• 2️⃣ Initial Pulse : Yellow bars, OBVX slope builds → actionable tension
• 3️⃣ Structural Breath : Synchronized expansion and slope → directional commitment
• 4️⃣ Disagreement : Spike in ZVOL, flattening OBVX → exhaustion risk or false signal
💡 Suggested Use
• Run on 15m charts for breakout anticipation and 1H for validation
• Pair with ZVOL + OBVX to confirm crowd conviction behind the tension phase
• Use as a rhythm filter for the suite's trend indicators (e.g., RDI , SUPeR TReND 2.718 , et. al.)
• Ideal during low-volume regimes to detect pressure buildup before triggers
🧏🏻 Volumetric Tensegrity doesn’t signal. It breathes , and listens to pressure shifts before they speak in price. As a scout, it lets you see structural posture before signals align — helping you front-run resolution with clarity, not prediction.
Exhaustion
Liquidity Trap Reversal Pro (Radar v2)Liquidity Trap Reversal Pro (Radar v2) is a non-repainting indicator designed to detect hidden liquidity traps at key swing highs and lows. It combines wick analysis, volume spike detection, and optional trend and exhaustion filters to identify high-probability reversal setups.
🔷 Features:
Non-Repainting: Pivots confirmed after lookback period, no future leaking.
Volume Spike Detection: Filters traps that occur during major liquidity events.
EMA Trend Filter (Optional): Focus on traps aligned with the prevailing trend.
Higher Timeframe Trend Filter (Optional): Confirm traps using a higher timeframe EMA bias.
Exhaustion Guard (Optional): Prevents traps after overextended moves based on ATR stretch.
Clean Visuals: Distinct plots for raw trap points vs confirmed traps.
Alerts Included: Set alerts for confirmed high/low liquidity traps.
📚 How to Use:
Watch for Trap Signals:
A Trap High signal suggests a potential bearish reversal.
A Trap Low signal suggests a potential bullish reversal.
Use Confirmed Signals for Best Entries:
Confirmed traps fire only after price moves opposite to the trap direction, adding reliability.
Use Trend Filters to Improve Accuracy:
In an uptrend (price above EMA), prefer Trap Lows (buy setups).
In a downtrend (price below EMA), prefer Trap Highs (sell setups).
Use the Exhaustion Guard to Avoid Bad Trades:
This filter blocks signals when price has moved too far from trend, helping avoid late entries.
Recommended Settings:
Best used on 15-minute, 1-hour, or 4-hour charts.
Trend filter ON for trending markets.
Exhaustion guard ON for volatile or stretched markets.
📈 Important Notes:
This script does not repaint once a pivot is confirmed.
Alerts trigger only on confirmed trap signals.
Always combine signals with sound risk management and trading strategy.

VoluTility🌊 VoluTility forecasts trend exhaustion, breakout pressure, and structural inflection by measuring volatility within the effort stream. Built on the concept of ATR applied to volume, it doesn’t read raw volume — it reveals whether that volume is stable, chaotic, or compressing ahead of a move. The goal is to detect structural setups before they resolve. The lower the timeframe, the greater the alpha.
🧠 Core Logic
A zero-centered histogram shows the deviation of smoothed volume from its own volatility baseline. Positive bars indicate expansion; negative bars signal compression. Color reflects rate-of-change in volume volatility. Opacity tracks effort/result strength — showing when moves are real or hollow.
The overlaid ribbon (EMA vs HMA) highlights rhythm shifts. Orange fill signals real expansion; yellow shows decay or absorption. Together, they expose pre-breakout compression and exhaustion tails before price reacts.
🏗️ Structural Read
On the 1H BTC chart shown, price coils into a shallow pullback, compressing within a narrow range marked by shrinking candle bodies and muted wick aggression. A sudden expansion candle breaks the coil cleanly, with no immediate rejection or wick reversion. Price holds above the breakout pivot, establishing a baseline for structural acceptance and shifting bias toward continuation.
🔰 Zone Descriptions
🔴 Volatile blowout
🟠 Clean expansion
🟡 Passive or absorbed effort
🟢 Steady-state rhythm
🔵 Compression coil
🧐 Suggested Use
VoluTility is expressly designed as an overlay for sub-pane indicators, where it acts as a second-order rhythm map — exposing hidden structural pressure within volume or volatility streams. When paired with volume (like ZVOL or OBVX), it highlights when flow is expanding with intent versus fading into noise. When layered over volatility signals (like ATR Turbulence or WIRE), it reveals whether expansion has real effort behind it — or is just structural slack.
It pairs especially well with the Relative Directional Index (RDI), where its histogram and ribbon offer early exhaustion signals before traditional trend or momentum fades appear. On raw momentum tools, it acts as a filter: softening false breaks and confirming pressure-backed continuation.
Run on 15m or lower charts for early entry cues or breakout anticipation. On 1H charts, use it to validate compression resolution or detect fatigue before structure turns. It doesn’t react to price — it forecasts readiness.
RVOL Effort Matrix💪🏻 RVOL Effort Matrix is a tiered volume framework that translates crowd participation into structure-aware visual zones. Rather than simply flagging spikes, it measures each bar’s volume as a ratio of its historical average and assigns to that effort dynamic tiers, creating a real-time map of conviction , exhaustion , and imbalance —before price even confirms.
⚖️ At its core, the tool builds a histogram of relative volume (RVOL). When enabled, a second layer overlays directional effort by estimating buy vs sell volume using candle body logic. If the candle closes higher, green (buy) volume dominates. If it closes lower, red (sell) volume leads. These components are stacked proportionally and inset beneath a colored cap line—a small but powerful layer that maintains visibility of the true effort tier even when split bars are active. The cap matches the original zone color, preserving context at all times.
Coloration communicates rhythm, tempo, and potential turning points:
• 🔴 = structurally weak effort, i.e. failed moves, fake-outs or trend exhaustion
• 🟡 = neutral volume, as seen in consolidations or pullbacks
• 🟢 = genuine commitment, good for continuation, breakout filters, or early rotation signals
• 🟣 = explosive volume signaling either climax or institutional entry—beware!
Background shading (optional) mirrors these zones across the pane for structural scanning at a glance. Volume bars can be toggled between full-stack mode or clean column view. Every layer is modular—built for composability with tools like ZVOL or OBVX Conviction Bias.
🧐 Ideal Use-Cases:
• 🕰 HTF bias anchoring → LTF execution
• 🧭 Identifying when structure is being driven by real crowd pressure
• 🚫 Fading green/fuchsia bars that fail to break structure
• ✅ Riding green/fuchsia follow-through in directional moves
🍷 Recommended Pairings:
• ZVOL for statistically significant volume anomaly detection
• OBVX Conviction Bias ↔️ for directional confirmation of effort zones
• SUPeR TReND 2.718 for structure-congruent entry filtering
• ATR Turbulence Ribbon to distinguish expansion pressure from churn
🥁 RVOL Effort Matrix is all about seeing—how much pressure is behind a move, whether that pressure is sustainable, and whether the crowd is aligned with price. It's volume, but readable. It’s structure, but dynamic. It’s the difference between obeying noise and trading to the beat of the market.
Volatility Price FlowCapitalize on market volatility with our new volatility price flow indicator. We have designed this indicator to process historical price movements and indicate when price may have reached exhaustion in the context of current volatility.
This is achieved by taking the price deviation from a user defined moving average, and applying a weighting to the deviations from the candle body and candle wick on both buy side and sell side, over a user defined period. The period of the base moving average, type of moving average and the period of the historical price deviations can all be modified. This creates a typical 'band' style indicator, though with a unique characteristic that the buy and sell side vary independently as well as the band expansion being based on weighted variables tied to the actual price changes, rather than just a standard deviation the moves uniformly.
Additionally, these bands can be merged with an anchored vwap - we do this so that the deviations of price from the moving average can include a more volume based approach to identifying potential pivots.
The end result is an indicator that reflects the current market price movements, identifies and capitalizes on impulsive or beginning moves to indicate potential tops / bottoms / reversals.
The signals are simple - anytime price closes within a band, having been outside the band, a signal is displayed. As a basic guide to setting the indicator up for the first time, we suggest reducing all of the multipliers to a value less than 1. Then gradually increase each one, until the signals reduce in quantity and improve in quality, starting with the price deviation multiplier, then the volatility multiplier and finally the expansion multiplier.
Last of all, alerts can be created based on the current chart timeframe and indicator settings, simply by adding an alert that uses the built in buy or sell signal.
Note: We cannot guarantee the accuracy of the signals provided, since the user creates the signals by modifying the settings, and as such we can take no responsibility for any trading losses incurred using the indicator and highly encourage all users to manage their risk and only risk what you can afford to lose.
Liquidations Meter [LuxAlgo]The Liquidation Meter aims to gauge the momentum of the bar, identify the strength of the bulls and bears, and more importantly identify probable exhaustion/reversals by measuring probable liquidations.
🔶 USAGE
This tool includes many features related to the concept of liquidation. The two core ones are the liquidation meter and liquidation price calculator, highlighted below.
🔹 Liquidation Meter
The liquidation meter presents liquidations on the price chart by measuring the highest leverage value of longs and shorts that have been potentially liquidated on the last chart bar, hence allowing traders to:
gauge the momentum of the bar.
identify the strength of the bulls and bears.
identify probable reversal/exhaustion points.
Liquidation of low-leveraged positions can be indicative of exhaustion.
🔹 Liquidation Price Calculator
A liquidation price calculator might come in handy when you need to calculate at what price level your leveraged position in Crypto, Forex, Stocks, or any other asset class gets liquidated to add a protective stop to mitigate risk. Monitoring an open position gets easier if the trader can calculate the total risk in order for them to choose the right amount of margin and leverage.
Liquidation price is the distance from the trader's entry price to the price where trader's leveraged position gets liquidated due to a loss. As the leverage is increased, the distance from trader's entry price to the liquidation price shrinks.
While you have one or several trades open you can quickly check their liquidation levels and determine which one of the trades is closest to their liquidation price.
If you are a day trader that uses leverage and you want to know which trade has the best outlook you can calculate the liquidation price to see which one of the trades looks best.
🔹 Dashboard
The bar statistics option enables measuring and presenting trading activity, volatility, and probable liquidations for the last chart bar.
🔶 DETAILS
It's important to note that liquidation price calculator tool uses a formula to calculate the liquidation price based on the entry price + leverage ratio.
Other factors such as leveraged fees, position size, and other interest payments have been excluded since they are variables that don’t directly affect the level of liquidation of a leveraged position.
The calculator also assumes that traders are using an isolated margin for one single position and does not take into consideration the additional margin they might have in their account.
🔹Liquidation price formula
the liquidation distance in percentage = 100 / leverage ratio
the liquidation distance in price = current asset price x the liquidation distance in percentage
the liquidation price (longs) = current asset price – the liquidation distance in price
the liquidation price (shorts) = current asset price + the liquidation distance in price
or simply
the liquidation price (longs) = entry price * (1 – 1 / leverage ratio)
the liquidation price (shorts) = entry price * (1 + 1 / leverage ratio)
Example:
Let’s say that you are trading a leverage ratio of 1:20. The first step is to calculate the distance to your liquidation point in percentage.
the liquidation distance in percentage = 100 / 20 = 5%
Now you know that your liquidation price is 5% away from your entry price. Let's calculate 5% below and above the entry price of the asset you are currently trading. As an example, we assume that you are trading bitcoin which is currently priced at $35000.
the liquidation distance in price = $35000 x 0.05 = $1750
Finally, calculate liquidation prices.
the liquidation price (longs) = $35000 – $1750 = $33250
the liquidation price (short) = $35000 + $1750 = $36750
In this example, short liquidation price is $36750 and long liquidation price is $33250.
🔹How leverage ratio affects the liquidation price
The entry price is the starting point of the calculation and it is from here that the liquidation price is calculated, where the leverage ratio has a direct impact on the liquidation price since the more you borrow the less “wiggle-room” your trade has.
An increase in leverage will subsequently reduce the distance to full liquidation. On the contrary, choosing a lower leverage ratio will give the position more room to move on.

ATR Extension [QuantVue]The Moving Average ATR Extension Indicator offers a powerful blend of two key market elements: the Average True Range (ATR) and Moving Averages (MA), capturing the dynamics of market momentum and trend direction.
This indicator is used to measure market extension from a user-selected moving average based on multiples of the Average True Range (ATR). By doing this, it becomes remarkably straightforward to spot strength at breakout points or exhaustion near the end of a run.
As a market breaks out the extension indicates a surge in buying pressure, while an extension after a sizeable move can often be an indication of market exhaustion. This extended position essentially reflects over-enthusiastic buying and could be an early warning sign of a potential trend reversal.

Price Exhaustion IndicatorThe Price Exhaustion Indicator (PE) is a powerful tool designed to identify trends weakening and strengthening in the financial markets. It combines the concepts of Average True Range (ATR), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), and Stochastic Oscillator to provide a comprehensive assessment of trend exhaustion levels. By analyzing these multiple indicators together, traders and investors can gain valuable insights into potential price reversals and long-term market highs and lows.
The aim of combining the ATR, MACD, and Stochastic Oscillator, is to provide a comprehensive analysis of trend exhaustion. The ATR component helps assess the volatility and range of price movements, while the MACD offers insights into the convergence and divergence of moving averages. The Stochastic Oscillator measures the current price in relation to its range, providing further confirmation of trend exhaustion. The exhaustion value is derived by combining the MACD, ATR, and Stochastic Oscillator. The MACD value is divided by the ATR value, and then multiplied by the Stochastic Oscillator value. This calculation results in a single exhaustion value that reflects the combined influence of these three indicators.
Application
The Price Exhaustion Indicator utilizes a unique visual representation by incorporating a gradient color scheme. The exhaustion line dynamically changes color, ranging from white when close to the midline (40) to shades of purple as it approaches points of exhaustion (overbought at 100 and oversold at -20). As the exhaustion line approaches the color purple, this represents extreme market conditions and zones of weakened trends where reversals may occur. This color gradient serves as a visual cue, allowing users to quickly gauge the strength or weakness of the prevailing trend.
To further enhance its usability, the Price Exhaustion Indicator also includes circle plots that signify potential points of trend reversion. These plots appear when the exhaustion lines cross or enter the overbought and oversold zones. Red circle plots indicate potential short entry points, suggesting a weakening trend and the possibility of a downward price reversal. Conversely, green circle plots represent potential long entry points, indicating a strengthening trend and the potential for an upward price reversal.
Traders and investors can leverage the Price Exhaustion Indicator in various ways. It can be utilized as a trend-following tool, or a mean reversion tool. When the exhaustion line approaches the overbought or oversold zones, it suggests a weakening trend and the possibility of a price reversal, helping identify potential market tops and bottoms. This can guide traders in timing their entries or exits in anticipation of a trend shift.
Utility
The Price Exhaustion Indicator is particularly useful for long-term market analysis, as it focuses on identifying long-term market highs and lows. By capturing the gradual weakening or strengthening of a trend, it assists investors in making informed decisions about portfolio allocation, trend continuation, or potential reversals.
In summary, the Price Exhaustion Indicator is a comprehensive and visually intuitive tool that combines ATR, MACD, and Stochastic Oscillator to identify trend exhaustion levels. By utilizing a gradient color scheme and circle plots, it offers traders and investors valuable insights into potential trend reversals and long-term market highs and lows. Its unique features make it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, providing a deeper understanding of market dynamics and assisting in decision-making processes. Please note that future performance of any trading strategy is fundamentally unknowable, and past results do not guarantee future performance.
Reversal Signals [LuxAlgo]The Reversal Signals indicator is a technical analysis tool that aims to identify when a trend is fading and potentially starting to reverse.
As a counter-trend tool, the Reversal Signals indicator aims to solve the problem of several technical analysis indicators that perform well during trending markets but struggle in ranging markets. By understanding the key concepts and applications of the tool, traders can enhance their market timing and improve their trading strategies.
Note: It's important to explore the settings of the indicator to customize to your own usage & display as there are various options available as covered below.
🔶 USAGE
The Reversal Signals indicator is comprised of two main phases: Momentum Phase and Trend Exhaustion Phase . These phases help identify potential trend reversals in bullish, bearish, and ranging markets.
🔹The Momentum Phase
The momentum phase consists of a 9-candle count and in rare cases 8-candle count. In a bullish trend, a starting number ‘1’ is plotted if a candle closes higher than the close of a candle four periods ago. In a bearish trend, a starting number ‘1’ is plotted if a candle closes lower than the close of a candle four periods ago.
The following numbers are plotted when each successive candle satisfies the four-period rule. The potential reversal point comes when the Reversal Signals plot a label on top of a candle in a bullish trend or at the bottom of a candle in a bearish trend. The momentum phase is immediately canceled if, at any point, a candle fails to satisfy the four-period rule.
Based on the extremes of the momentum phase, the Reversal Signals generate support & resistance levels as well as risk/stop levels.
🔹 The Trend Exhaustion Phase
The trend exhaustion phase starts after completing the momentum phase and consists of a 13-candle count. In a bullish trend exhaustion phase, each candle’s close is compared to the close of two candles earlier, and the close must be greater than the close two periods earlier. In a bearish trend exhaustion phase, each candle’s close is compared to the close of two candles earlier, and the close must be lower than the close two periods earlier.
The trend exhaustion phase does not require a consecutive sequence of candles; if the order of candles is interrupted, the trend exhaustion phase is not canceled. The trend exhaustion phase generates stronger trading signals than the momentum phase, with the potential for longer-lasting price reversals.
🔹 Trading Signals
The Reversal Signals script presents an overall setup and some phase-specific trade setup options, where probable trades might be considered. All phase-specific trade setups, presented as options, are triggered once the selected phase is completed and followed by a price flip in the direction of the trade setup.
Please note that those setups are presented for educational purposes only and do not constitutes professional and/or financial advice
- Momentum: Enter a trade at momentum phase completion, and search for buy (sell) when the bullish (bearish) momentum phase pattern is complete. Ideally, the momentum phase completion should close near its support/resistance line but shall not be above them, which indicates continuation of the trend
- Exhaustion: Enter a trade on trend exhaustion phase completion, and search for buy (sell) when the bullish (bearish) trend exhaustion phase is complete
- Qualified: Buy (sell) when a bullish (bearish) trend exhaustion phase combined with another bullish (bearish) momentum phase sequence is complete
Long trade setups are presented with "L" label and short trade setups with "S" label, where the content of the label displays details related to the probable trade opportunity
Once a phase-specific trade setup is triggered then the Reversal Signals script keeps checking the status of the price action relative to the phase-specific trade setups and in case something goes wrong presents a caution label. Pay attention to the content of the caution labels as well as where they appear. A trade signal, followed immediately by a warning indication can be assumed as a continuation of the underlying trend and can be traded in the opposite direction of the suggested signal
It is strongly advised to confirm trading setups in conjunction with other forms of technical and fundamental analysis, including technical indicators, chart/candlestick pattern analysis, etc.
🔶 DETAILS
The Reversal Signals script performs the detection of the phases by counting the candlestick meeting the specific conditions, which includes:
- Detection of the 8th and 9th candle perfection during the momentum phase
- In some cases, the 8th count will be assumed as momentum phase completion
- Trend exhaustion phase counting stops in case any type of momentum phase completion is detected during the counting process
- Postponing the last count of the trend exhaustion phase, the 13th candle must be below/above the 8th candle and if not the candles will be indicated with '+' sign under them and the script continues to search for a 13th candle at the next ones until the conditions are met
🔶 ALERTS
When an alert is configured, the user will have the ability to be notified in case;
Momentum / Trend Exhaustion phase completion
Support & Resistance level cross detection
Stop / Risk level cross detection
Long / Short Trade Setups are triggered
Please note, alerts are available with 'any alert() function call' and the alerts will be received only for the features that are enabled during alert configuration

Exhaustion Table [SpiritualHealer117]A simple indicator in a table format, is effective for determining when an individual stock or cryptocurrency is oversold or overbought.
Using the indicator
In the column "2σ" , up arrows indicate that the asset is very overbought , down arrows indicate that an asset is very oversold , and an equals sign indicates that the indicator is neutral.
In the column "σ" , up arrows indicate that the asset is overbought , down arrows indicate that an asset is oversold , and an equals sign indicates that the indicator is neutral.
What indicator is
The indicator shows the exhaustion (percentage gap between the closing price and a moving average) at 5 given lengths, 15, 30, 50, 100, and 300. It compares that to two thresholds for exhaustion: one standard deviation out and one two standard deviations out.
LNL Keltner ExhaustionLNL Keltner Exhaustion resolves the constant issue of Bands vs. EMAs
With the keltner exhaustion wedges, you can easily see the keltner channel extremes witout using the actual bands. That way, you will know whether the price is outside of the keltner channels + you can use other indicators (such as EMAs) on chart without the bands so the chart does not look messy & hard to read.
Two Types of Wedges:
1. Green/Red Wedge - Price action is extended outside the regular band. More of a "profit taking" zone rather than "entry taking" (default set to 3.0 ATR factor).
2. Purple Wedge - Price action is extended outside of the extreme band. Chances are price will revert to mean soon (default set to 4.0 ATR factor).
Works great as a target tool with the squeeze setup or as an overall extension gauge.
Hope it helps.
%R Trend Exhaustion [upslidedown]I love Williams %R! This indicator mixes two %R periods... a standard %R with a longer period %R. The longer period of 112 has interesting results for trend following strategies in the crypto market through backtesting.
Alone these are fairly ordinary but together they provide a very interesting trend exhaustion/reversal system while filtering out some noise. I have highlighted key areas of interest with filled boxes. An "area of interest" is when there is confluence between the short and long period %R values along with being overbought or oversold. Once there is a break in the overbought or oversold trend, an arrow will print.
This is one of my odder ideas that appears to have some merit and detects interesting tops or bottoms (or confirms a trend reversal) so I'm publicly publishing for the community to find. If you find this useful please reach out and let me know how you use it as it's fairly unique... and thus different than anything I've ever seen or used.

RSI Filters - RSI must be below or above the specified value for the divergence or exhaustion to trigger
Percent Filters - The candlestick range or volume must be higher or lower than the specified value depending whether it's divergence or exhaustion.
This is a very helpful tool if you're interesting in reading volume. It also facilitates finding market maker activity depending on the size of the VP. Sudden abnormal spikes in VP usually do signal something and that's up for you to figure out :)

ema exhaustion (exa)The exa is an oscillator that combines fisher transform with distance from moving average and it is based on a theory that exhaustion can be derived from how far price is able to extend from a moving average, on average.
The fisher transform converts price into a gaussian normal distribution, also known as a bell curve {1}. A normal distribution is a type of probability distribution for a real-valued random variable {2}. Applying this method to the price of an asset can help to identify probabilities, but it will never identify certainties.
‘exa’ is an abbreviation for ema exhaustion. It can be used to identify when price is probable to revert to the mean but I prefer using it to confirm entries that are signaled following a reversion to the mean (aka buying the dip in bull markets). When price gets oversold into support, in a bull trend, then that can provide a good opportunity to enter long. However that isn’t necessarily the case when the same metrics indicate oversold conditions in a bear trend. In this situation the exa is best suited for identifying profit taking opportunities on shorts.
The default settings are a 9 lookback period and a 50 ema. By default signals will be derived from how far price is from the 50 ema relative to the probable distribution of the last 9 periods. If the exa is above 2, or below -2, then the price is in the 80th percentile of the prior 9 candles. Being outside of 3, or -3, represents the 90th percentile and 4, or -4, represents the 95th percentile.
Those ranges will never indicate a necessity of reverting to the mean, but they will indicate a higher and higher probability. I prefer to use this oscillator in combination with an indicator(s) that identifies the trend. When the oscillator reaches -2 in a bull trend then it can confirm long entry signals, whereas if it reaches +2 in a bull trend then it can be used to confirm signals to take profit.
Crossovers are especially significant because they indicate a shift in the tide. When the exa reaches 2 without crossing over then it is very much in a position to move to 3 or 4+. When it crosses above 2 then it is an indication that price is extended from the mean and exhausted.
This is certainly not a situation that implies price will revert to the mean, it simply provides confirmation.
The default settings are what I have been finding most effective personally, however that is mostly a function of the trend following tools that I use. The same principles should apply with all settings and I would encourage users to experiment with various lookback periods and emas.

Mean Reversion Channel - (fareid's MRI Variant)Description :
Mean Reversion Channel objective, based on Mean Reversion theory ( everything has a tendency to revert back to its mean), is to help visualizing:
Inner Channel -> Dynamic Support and Resistance
Outer Channel -> Overbought/Oversold Zone which may signal consolidation phase or potential reversal due to unsustainable move
Details on some of the filtering type used for mean calculation can be read in Ehlers Technical Papers: "Swiss Army Knife Indicator" and/or his book "Cybernetics Analysis for Stock and Futures"
Disclaimer:
These study scripts was built only to test/visualize an idea to see its viability and if it can be used to optimize existing strategy.
Any ideas to further improve this indicator are welcome :)
Effort v RewardI made this indicator to make it easier to compare volume and price movement. This is similar in concept to the Market Facilitation Index by Bill Williams, although hopefully this can make that analysis easier to see at a glance (similar to the way some bar overlays/recolors work but with more detail and in its own pane). The primary use for this indicator would be paying attention to the red EMA, which shows the difference between price movement and volume, normalized within the normalization lookback period (adjustable, defaults to 30 bars). When the red ema moves up, it means there is less effort required to move price more, which means the trend (if there is one) is probably stronger or has had resistance removed/shaken out already; if the red ema moves down into the negative, it means there is a lot of effort for very little price movement, meaning a large battle between the bears and the bulls currently (squat). Enjoy, let me know if you want adjustments, and safe and successful trading!
Rolling Net VolumeMay still make changes, the current study should be helpful as is. Looking to highlight potential relative trend exhaustion in net volume. Should be most effective for stable supply assets. We're looking at an 100 day moving average of net volume essentially. The values of the RNV are slightly exaggerated to help with visibility PLEASE bear this in mind. Never the less, you can look at many commodities and notice moderate and extreme trend exhaustion on the positive and negative side using the transparent bands above and below. The less transparent red band perhaps suggests an opportunity to open a position against the current direction. It's not perfect, I may try to improve it. I am definitely open to feedback and appreciate it very much in advance.
Trend Exhaustion IndicatorThe Trend Exhaustion Indicator is a custom indicator of mine that is loosely based on the Trend Exhaustion Index created by Clifford L. Creel Ph.D. (Stocks & Commodities V. 9:1 (9-11))
This indicator will let you know the trend reversal points and when it falls below the signal line then the trend is ending vice versa. Buy when the indicator crosses above the signal line and sell when it falls below the signal line.
Let me know if you would like to see me write any other scripts!
Keltner Channels WidthSimilar to bollinger bands width, but for keltner channels, designed to recognize when a move is exhausted and contraction is to be expected.
Would use it as a filter to stay out of any trades if the indicator peaks (red color).

Donato Trend Stength IndexThis indicator is a basic way to look at longer periods of time and look for exhaustion based on closes above or below RSI50. The first output is RSI14 the second is a rolling 100 day aggregate of closes where 50 acts as 0. As of now it appears totals of 1200+ /-1200- could be considered overbought / oversold, respectively. Totals near or above / below 2000 / -2000 (respectively) could be great indicators of extreme trend exhaustion and impending reversal.
Slow Stochastic + ADX exhaustationSlow stochastic with ADX exhaustation and sell/entry points as orange/green circles.
This is a script I remade from Marco Valente's "RSI Combo" and Oshri17 "Slow stochastic".
Credits and thanks to them for sharing, I just expanded the diversity ^^
Hope you enjoy phit! ;D
