Fear-indicator — Indicators and Strategies

Ticker Pulse Meter + Fear EKG Strategy Description The Ticker Pulse Meter + Fear EKG Strategy is a technical analysis tool designed to identify potential entry and exit points for long positions based on price action relative to historical ranges. It combines two proprietary indicators: the Ticker Pulse Meter (TPM), which measures price positioning within short- and long-term ranges, and the Fear EKG, a VIX-inspired oscillator that detects extreme market conditions. The strategy is non-repainting, ensuring signals are generated only on confirmed bars to avoid false positives. Visual enhancements, such as optional moving averages and Bollinger Bands, provide additional context but are not core to the strategy's logic. This script is suitable for traders seeking a systematic approach to capturing momentum and mean-reversion opportunities. How It Works The strategy evaluates price action using two key metrics: Ticker Pulse Meter (TPM): Measures the current price's position within short- and long-term price ranges to identify momentum or overextension. Fear EKG: Detects extreme selling pressure (akin to "irrational selling") by analyzing price behavior relative to historical lows, inspired by volatility-based oscillators. Entry signals are generated when specific conditions align, indicating potential buying opportunities. Exits are triggered based on predefined thresholds or partial position closures to manage risk. The strategy supports customizable lookback periods, thresholds, and exit percentages, allowing flexibility across different markets and timeframes. Visual cues, such as entry/exit dots and a position table, enhance usability, while optional overlays like moving averages and Bollinger Bands provide additional chart context. Calculation Overview Price Range Calculations: Short-Term Range: Uses the lowest low (min_price_short) and highest high (max_price_short) over a user-defined short lookback period (lookback_short, default 50 bars). Long-Term Range: Uses the lowest low (min_price_long) and highest high (max_price_long) over a user-defined long lookback period (lookback_long, default 200 bars). Percentage Metrics: pct_above_short: Percentage of the current close above the short-term range. pct_above_long: Percentage of the current close above the long-term range. Combined metrics (pct_above_long_above_short, pct_below_long_below_short) normalize price action for signal generation. Signal Generation: Long Entry (TPM): Triggered when pct_above_long_above_short crosses above a user-defined threshold (entryThresholdhigh, default 20) and pct_below_long_below_short is below a low threshold (entryThresholdlow, default 40). Long Entry (Fear EKG): Triggered when pct_below_long_below_short crosses under an extreme threshold (orangeEntryThreshold, default 95), indicating potential oversold conditions. Long Exit: Triggered when pct_above_long_above_short crosses under a profit-taking level (profitTake, default 95). Partial exits are supported via a user-defined percentage (exitAmt, default 50%). Non-Repainting Logic: Signals are calculated using data from the previous bar ( ) and only plotted on confirmed bars (barstate.isconfirmed), ensuring reliability. Visual Enhancements: Optional moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, or SMMA) and Bollinger Bands can be enabled for trend context. A position table displays real-time metrics, including open positions, Fear EKG, and Ticker Pulse values. Background highlights mark periods of high selling pressure. Entry Rules Long Entry: TPM Signal: Occurs when the price shows strength relative to both short- and long-term ranges, as defined by pct_above_long_above_short crossing above entryThresholdhigh and pct_below_long_below_short below entryThresholdlow. Fear EKG Signal: Triggered by extreme selling pressure, when pct_below_long_below_short crosses under orangeEntryThreshold. This signal is optional and can be toggled via enable_yellow_signals. Entries are executed only on confirmed bars to prevent repainting. Exit Rules Long Exit: Triggered when pct_above_long_above_short crosses under profitTake. Partial exits are supported, with the strategy closing a user-defined percentage of the position (exitAmt) up to four times per position (exit_count limit). Exits can be disabled or adjusted via enable_short_signal and exitPercentage settings. Inputs Backtest Start Date: Defines the start of the backtesting period (default: Jan 1, 2017). Lookback Periods: Short (lookback_short, default 50) and long (lookback_long, default 200) periods for range calculations. Resolution: Timeframe for price data (default: Daily). Entry/Exit Thresholds: entryThresholdhigh (default 20): Threshold for TPM entry. entryThresholdlow (default 40): Secondary condition for TPM entry. orangeEntryThreshold (default 95): Threshold for Fear EKG entry. profitTake (default 95): Exit threshold. exitAmt (default 50%): Percentage of position to exit. Visual Options: Toggle for moving averages and Bollinger Bands, with customizable types and lengths. Notes The strategy is designed to work across various timeframes and assets, with data sourced from user-selected resolutions (i_res). Alerts are included for long entry and exit signals, facilitating integration with TradingView's alert system. The script avoids repainting by using confirmed bar data and shifted calculations ( ). Visual elements (e.g., SMA, Bollinger Bands) are inspired by standard Pine Script practices and are optional, not integral to the core logic. Usage Apply the script to a chart, adjust input settings to suit your trading style, and use the visual cues (entry/exit dots, position table) to monitor signals. Enable alerts for real-time notifications. Designed to work best on Daily timeframe.

Stochastic Vix Fix SVIX (Tartigradia)The Stochastic Vix or Stochastic VixFix (SVIX), just like the Williams VixFix, is a realized volatility indicator, and can help in finding market bottoms as well as tops without requiring bollinger bands or any other construct, as the SVIX is bounded between 0-100 which allows for an objective thresholding regardless of the past. Mathematically, SVIX is the complement of the original Stochastic Oscillator, with such a simple transform reproducing Williams' VixFix and the VIX index signals of high volatility and hence of market bottoms quite accurately but within a bounded 0-100 range. Having a predefined range allows to find markets bottoms without needing to compare to past prices using a bollinger band (Chris Moody on TradingView) nor a moving average (Hesta 2015), as a simple threshold condition (by default above 80) is sufficient to reliably signal interesting entry points at bottoming prices. Having a predefined range allows to find markets bottoms without needing to compare to past prices using a bollinger band (Chris Moody on TradingView) nor a moving average (Hesta 2015), as a simple threshold condition (by default above 80) is sufficient to reliably signal interesting entry points at bottoming prices. Indeed, as Williams describes in his paper, markets tend to find the lowest prices during times of highest volatility, which usually accompany times of highest fear. Although the VixFix originally only indicates market bottoms, the Stochastic VixFix can also indicate good times to exit, when SVIX is at a low value (default: below 20), but just like the original VixFix and VIX index, exit signals are as usual much less reliable than long entries signals, because: 1) mature markets such as SP500 tend to increase over the long term, 2) when market fall, retail traders panic and hence volatility skyrockets and bottom is more reliably signalled, but at market tops, no one is panicking, price action only loses momentum because of liquidity drying up. Compared to Hesta 2015 strategy of using a moving average over Williams' VixFix to generate entry signals, SVIX generates much fewer false positives during ranging markets, which drastically reduce Hesta 2015 strategy profitability as this incurs quite a lot of losses. This indicator goes further than the original SVIX, by restoring the smoothed D and second-level smoothed D2 oscillators from the original Stochastic Oscillator, and use a 14-period ZLMA instead of the original 20-period SMA, to generate smoother yet responsive signals compared to using just the raw SVIX (by default, this is disabled, as the original raw SVIX is used to produce more entry signals). Usage: Set the timescale to daily or weekly preferably, to reduce false positives. When the background is highlighted in green or when the highlight disappears, it is usually a good time to enter a long position. Red background highlighting can be enabled to signal good exit zones, but these generate a lot of false positives. To further reduce false positives, the SVIX_MA can be used to generate signals instead of the raw SVIX.

The correct equation for the SVIX was retroengineered by comparing charts they published in the paper with charts generated by this pinescript indicator. For a more complete indicator, see:

VIX MTF Momentum Sweet little momentum gadget to track the VIX Index. What is the VIX? The CBOE S&P 500 Volatility Index (VIX) is known as the 'Fear Index' which can measure how worried traders are that the S&P 500 might suddenly drop within the next 30 days. When the VIX starts moving higher, it is telling you that traders are getting nervous. When the VIX starts moving lower, it is telling you that traders are gaining confidence. VIX calculation? The Chicago Board of Options Exchange Market Volatility Index (VIX) is a measure of implied volatility (Of the S&P 500 securities options), based on the prices of a basket of S&P 500 Index options with 30 days to expiration. How to use: If VIX Momentum is above 0 (RED) traders are getting nervous. If VIX Momentum is below 0 (GREEN) traders are gaining confidence.

Fear And Greed Indicator The Fear And Greed Indicator is a very popular indicator on the Bloomberg platform and since I didn't have actual source code to work with, this is a very close approximation of that indicator. Let me know if you spot any discrepancies with the original and I will do my best to fix them. For buy and sell signals it is pretty straightforward. Just buy when the green (greed) is in control and sell when the fear (red) is in control This was a special request so let me know if you want to see more scripts from me or if you want something custom!
