9 EMA Cross 21 EMA Strategy - 1H with 5% TPThe 21/9 EMA crossover strategy is a powerful trend-following method where a buy signal is triggered when the 9 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA, indicating bullish momentum. It works best in trending markets, especially when combined with filters like the 100 EMA to avoid choppy zones. Traders can enhance performance by entering on EMA retests, using a fixed 35-point stop-loss, and setting a 5–8% take profit. This strategy shines on 15-minute to 1-hour charts and can yield massive returns—sometimes up to 300%—when used with discipline and proper risk management. Follow me for more crazy setups!

Hidden Markov ModelOverview
This model uses a Hidden Markov Model to identify and predict market regimes in real-time. It is designed to probabilistically identify market regime changes and predict potential reversal point using a forward algorithm to calculate the probability of a state.
Unlike traditional technical indicators that rely on price patterns or moving averages, this HMM analyses the underlying statistical structure of market movements to detect when the market transitions between different behavioural states such as trending, ranging, or volatile periods
How it works
The HMM assumes that market behavior follows hidden states that aren't directly observable, but can be inferred from observable market data (emissions). The model uses a (somewhat simplified) Bayesian inference to estimate these probabilities.
State 0: (Normal Trading): Market continuation patterns, balanced buying/selling
State 1: (Top Formation): Exhaustion patterns at price highs
State 2: (Bottom Formation): Capitulation patterns at price lows
How to use
1) Identify the trend (you can also use it counter-trend)
2) For longing, look for a green arrow. The probability values should be red. For shorting, look for a red arrow. The probability values should be green
3) For added confluence, look for high probability values of above 25%.
Advantages and what makes it unique
Unlike moving averages or oscillators that react to price changes, the HMM proactively identifies the underlying market structure. This forward-looking approach can signal regime changes before they become apparent in price action, providing traders with an informational edge.

How it works
Regular Divergence: Price makes a higher high (or lower low) while RSI does not — this can signal a possible trend reversal.
Hidden Divergence: Price makes a lower high (or higher low) while RSI makes a higher high (or lower low) — this can signal a possible trend continuation in the same direction.
Auto Lines & Labels
The script automatically detects local swing highs and lows and draws connecting trendlines on price.
Labels appear on the chart as colored triangles, so signals are easy to see at a glance:
🔻 Red triangle — Regular Bearish Divergence (potential short)
🟠 Orange triangle — Hidden Bearish Divergence (possible trend continuation down)
🟢 Green triangle — Regular Bullish Divergence (potential long)

Smart Deviation Trend Bands PRO + MTF Filter
Smart Deviation Trend Bands PRO + MTF Filter
This advanced version of Smart Deviation Bands gives you everything you need to catch cleaner trend bounces and avoid fake signals.
🔹 Classic deviation bands with 1, 2 and 3 standard deviations
🔹 Dynamic SMA line with clear trend coloring
🔹 Built-in multi-timeframe trend filter (MTF)
🔹 Signals only appear when they align with the higher timeframe trend
🔹 Ready-to-use alerts for bullish and bearish bounces
How it works

A built-in multi-timeframe filter checks the trend on a higher timeframe (HTF). A signal appears only when a bounce aligns with the bigger trend:
Bullish bounce: Price crosses up from the lower deviation band while the HTF trend is up.
Bearish bounce: Price crosses down from the upper deviation band while the HTF trend is down.
Signal markers
🟢 Green circle: Bullish bounce — price crossing up from lower band with HTF uptrend
🔴 Red circle: Bearish bounce — price crossing down from upper band with HTF downtrend
How to use
Works on any market (crypto, stocks, forex).
Works on any timeframe — the filter can use any higher timeframe you choose (for example, H4, 1D, 1W).
Fully adjustable settings: SMA length, standard deviation multipliers, and filter timeframe.

🔹 Detects regular bullish & bearish divergences
🔹 Filters signals using a simple EMA trend filter
🔹 Clear triangle labels on the chart
🔹 Ready-to-use alerts for your strategy
Use it to catch potential reversal points when the trend may be losing strength.
How it works
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high above the EMA while MACD makes a lower high → possible reversal down.
Bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low below the EMA while MACD makes a higher low → possible reversal up.
EMA filter: Helps identify when the market is overextended relative to its trend.
The indicator uses standard MACD settings (fast, slow, and signal lengths) which can be adjusted to fit your asset and timeframe. The EMA length is also fully customizable.
Signal colors
🔻 Red triangle — Bearish Price Divergence (potential short)
🔺 Green triangle — Bullish Price Divergence (potential long)
This script works on any timeframe and market — crypto, forex, indices, or stocks. Signals do not repaint once confirmed.

Buy Sell Magic Rework
A version of the legendary Forex indicator Buy Sell Magic for TradingView, with optional additional filtering in the settings.
A simple yet very effective trend-following tool — I personally used it for trading gold 14 years ago, and it still works great today!
How it works:
This script combines the classic Parabolic SAR trend indicator with an optional ZigZag filter for additional signal confirmation.
Parabolic SAR:
The indicator plots the Parabolic SAR on the chart to help identify trend direction and potential reversals. A buy signal is generated when the SAR flips from above the price to below it, signaling a possible uptrend. A sell signal appears when the SAR moves from below to above the price, indicating a potential downtrend.
ZigZag Filter (optional):
The ZigZag filter uses pivot highs and lows to reduce market noise and confirm significant swings. When enabled, a signal is shown only after a clear pivot forms in the chosen period.
Inputs:
ZigZag Period: Controls pivot sensitivity.
SAR Start, Increment, Max: Adjust how responsive the SAR is.
Use ZigZag Filter: Enable or disable additional filtering.
Plots:
Gray crosses = Parabolic SAR points
Green arrows = Buy signals
Red arrows = Sell signals
Best Use:
This tool works well on various markets: Forex, crypto, stocks. It is best suited for trend-following or swing trading strategies. Adjust the settings for your preferred asset and timeframe, and always backtest before live trading.

VoVix DEVMA🌌 VoVix DEVMA: A Deep Dive into Second-Order Volatility Dynamics
Welcome to VoVix+, a sophisticated trading framework that transcends traditional price analysis. This is not merely another indicator; it is a complete system designed to dissect and interpret the very fabric of market volatility. VoVix+ operates on the principle that the most powerful signals are not found in price alone, but in the behavior of volatility itself. It analyzes the rate of change, the momentum, and the structure of market volatility to identify periods of expansion and contraction, providing a unique edge in anticipating major market moves.
This document will serve as your comprehensive guide, breaking down every mathematical component, every user input, and every visual element to empower you with a profound understanding of how to harness its capabilities.
🔬 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION: THE MATHEMATICS OF MARKET DYNAMICS
VoVix+ is built upon a multi-layered mathematical engine designed to measure what we call "second-order volatility." While standard indicators analyze price, and first-order volatility indicators (like ATR) analyze the range of price, VoVix+ analyzes the dynamics of the volatility itself. This provides insight into the market's underlying state of stability or chaos.
1. The VoVix Score: Measuring Volatility Thrust
The core of the system begins with the VoVix Score. This is a normalized measure of volatility acceleration or deceleration.
Mathematical Formula:
VoVix Score = (ATR(fast) - ATR(slow)) / (StDev(ATR(fast)) + ε)
Where:
ATR(fast) is the Average True Range over a short period, representing current, immediate volatility.
ATR(slow) is the Average True Range over a longer period, representing the baseline or established volatility.
StDev(ATR(fast)) is the Standard Deviation of the fast ATR, which measures the "noisiness" or consistency of recent volatility.
ε (epsilon) is a very small number to prevent division by zero.
Market Implementation:
Positive Score (Expansion): When the fast ATR is significantly higher than the slow ATR, it indicates a rapid increase in volatility. The market is "stretching" or expanding.
Negative Score (Contraction): When the fast ATR falls below the slow ATR, it indicates a decrease in volatility. The market is "coiling" or contracting.
Normalization: By dividing by the standard deviation, we normalize the score. This turns it into a standardized measure, allowing us to compare volatility thrust across different market conditions and timeframes. A score of 2.0 in a quiet market means the same, relatively, as a score of 2.0 in a volatile market.
2. Deviation Analysis (DEV): Gauging Volatility's Own Volatility
The script then takes the analysis a step further. It calculates the standard deviation of the VoVix Score itself.
Mathematical Formula:
DEV = StDev(VoVix Score, lookback_period)
Market Implementation:
This DEV value represents the magnitude of chaos or stability in the market's volatility dynamics. A high DEV value means the volatility thrust is erratic and unpredictable. A low DEV value suggests the change in volatility is smooth and directional.
3. The DEVMA Crossover: Identifying Regime Shifts
This is the primary signal generator. We take two moving averages of the DEV value.
Mathematical Formula:
fastDEVMA = SMA(DEV, fast_period)
slowDEVMA = SMA(DEV, slow_period)
The Core Signal:
The strategy triggers on the crossover and crossunder of these two DEVMA lines. This is a profound concept: we are not looking at a moving average of price or even of volatility, but a moving average of the standard deviation of the normalized rate of change of volatility.
Bullish Crossover (fastDEVMA > slowDEVMA): This signals that the short-term measure of volatility's chaos is increasing relative to the long-term measure. This often precedes a significant market expansion and is interpreted as a bullish volatility regime.
Bearish Crossunder (fastDEVMA < slowDEVMA): This signals that the short-term measure of volatility's chaos is decreasing. The market is settling down or contracting, often leading to trending moves or range consolidation.
⚙️ INPUTS MENU: CONFIGURING YOUR ANALYSIS ENGINE
Every input has been meticulously designed to give you full control over the strategy's behavior. Understanding these settings is key to adapting VoVix+ to your specific instrument, timeframe, and trading style.
🌀 VoVix DEVMA Configuration
🧬 Deviation Lookback: This sets the lookback period for calculating the DEV value. It defines the window for measuring the stability of the VoVix Score. A shorter value makes the system highly reactive to recent changes in volatility's character, ideal for scalping. A longer value provides a smoother, more stable reading, better for identifying major, long-term regime shifts.
⚡ Fast VoVix Length: This is the lookback period for the fastDEVMA. It represents the short-term trend of volatility's chaos. A smaller number will result in a faster, more sensitive signal line that reacts quickly to market shifts.
🐌 Slow VoVix Length: This is the lookback period for the slowDEVMA. It represents the long-term, baseline trend of volatility's chaos. A larger number creates a more stable, slower-moving anchor against which the fast line is compared.
How to Optimize: The relationship between the Fast and Slow lengths is crucial. A wider gap (e.g., 20 and 60) will result in fewer, but potentially more significant, signals. A narrower gap (e.g., 25 and 40) will generate more frequent signals, suitable for more active trading styles.
🧠 Adaptive Intelligence
🧠 Enable Adaptive Features: When enabled, this activates the strategy's performance tracking module. The script will analyze the outcome of its last 50 trades to calculate a dynamic win rate.
⏰ Adaptive Time-Based Exit: If Enable Adaptive Features is on, this allows the strategy to adjust its Maximum Bars in Trade setting based on performance. It learns from the average duration of winning trades. If winning trades tend to be short, it may shorten the time exit to lock in profits. If winners tend to run, it will extend the time exit, allowing trades more room to develop. This helps prevent the strategy from cutting winning trades short or holding losing trades for too long.
⚡ Intelligent Execution
📊 Trade Quantity: A straightforward input that defines the number of contracts or shares for each trade. This is a fixed value for consistent position sizing.
🛡️ Smart Stop Loss: Enables the dynamic stop-loss mechanism.
🎯 Stop Loss ATR Multiplier: Determines the distance of the stop loss from the entry price, calculated as a multiple of the current 14-period ATR. A higher multiplier gives the trade more room to breathe but increases risk per trade. A lower multiplier creates a tighter stop, reducing risk but increasing the chance of being stopped out by normal market noise.
💰 Take Profit ATR Multiplier: Sets the take profit target, also as a multiple of the ATR. A common practice is to set this higher than the Stop Loss multiplier (e.g., a 2:1 or 3:1 reward-to-risk ratio).
🏃 Use Trailing Stop: This is a powerful feature for trend-following. When enabled, instead of a fixed stop loss, the stop will trail behind the price as the trade moves into profit, helping to lock in gains while letting winners run.
🎯 Trail Points & 📏 Trail Offset ATR Multipliers: These control the trailing stop's behavior. Trail Points defines how much profit is needed before the trail activates. Trail Offset defines how far the stop will trail behind the current price. Both are based on ATR, making them fully adaptive to market volatility.
⏰ Maximum Bars in Trade: This is a time-based stop. It forces an exit if a trade has been open for a specified number of bars, preventing positions from being held indefinitely in stagnant markets.
⏰ Session Management
These inputs allow you to confine the strategy's trading activity to specific market hours, which is crucial for day trading instruments that have defined high-volume sessions (e.g., stock market open).
🎨 Visual Effects & Dashboard
These toggles give you complete control over the on-chart visuals and the dashboard. You can disable any element to declutter your chart or focus only on the information that matters most to you.
📊 THE DASHBOARD: YOUR AT-A-GLANCE COMMAND CENTER
The dashboard centralizes all critical information into one compact, easy-to-read panel. It provides a real-time summary of the market state and strategy performance.
🎯 VOVIX ANALYSIS
Fast & Slow: Displays the current numerical values of the fastDEVMA and slowDEVMA. The color indicates their direction: green for rising, red for falling. This lets you see the underlying momentum of each line.
Regime: This is your most important environmental cue. It tells you the market's current state based on the DEVMA relationship. 🚀 EXPANSION (Green) signifies a bullish volatility regime where explosive moves are more likely. ⚛️ CONTRACTION (Purple) signifies a bearish volatility regime, where the market may be consolidating or entering a smoother trend.
Quality: Measures the strength of the last signal based on the magnitude of the DEVMA difference. An ELITE or STRONG signal indicates a high-conviction setup where the crossover had significant force.
PERFORMANCE
Win Rate & Trades: Displays the historical win rate of the strategy from the backtest, along with the total number of closed trades. This provides immediate feedback on the strategy's historical effectiveness on the current chart.
EXECUTION
Trade Qty: Shows your configured position size per trade.
Session: Indicates whether trading is currently OPEN (allowed) or CLOSED based on your session management settings.
POSITION
Position & PnL: Displays your current position (LONG, SHORT, or FLAT) and the real-time Profit or Loss of the open trade.
🧠 ADAPTIVE STATUS
Stop/Profit Mult: In this simplified version, these are placeholders. The primary adaptive feature currently modifies the time-based exit, which is reflected in how long trades are held on the chart.
🎨 THE VISUAL UNIVERSE: DECIPHERING MARKET GEOMETRY
The visuals are not mere decorations; they are geometric representations of the underlying mathematical concepts, designed to give you an intuitive feel for the market's state.
The Core Lines:
FastDEVMA (Green/Maroon Line): The primary signal line. Green when rising, indicating an increase in short-term volatility chaos. Maroon when falling.
SlowDEVMA (Aqua/Orange Line): The baseline. Aqua when rising, indicating a long-term increase in volatility chaos. Orange when falling.
🌊 Morphism Flow (Flowing Lines with Circles):
What it represents: This visualizes the momentum and strength of the fastDEVMA. The width and intensity of the "beam" are proportional to the signal strength.
Interpretation: A thick, steep, and vibrant flow indicates powerful, committed momentum in the current volatility regime. The floating '●' particles represent kinetic energy; more particles suggest stronger underlying force.
📐 Homotopy Paths (Layered Transparent Boxes):
What it represents: These layered boxes are centered between the two DEVMA lines. Their height is determined by the DEV value.
Interpretation: This visualizes the overall "volatility of volatility." Wider boxes indicate a chaotic, unpredictable market. Narrower boxes suggest a more stable, predictable environment.
🧠 Consciousness Field (The Grid):
What it represents: This grid provides a historical lookback at the DEV range.
Interpretation: It maps the recent "consciousness" or character of the market's volatility. A consistently wide grid suggests a prolonged period of chaos, while a narrowing grid can signal a transition to a more stable state.
📏 Functorial Levels (Projected Horizontal Lines):
What it represents: These lines extend from the current fastDEVMA and slowDEVMA values into the future.
Interpretation: Think of these as dynamic support and resistance levels for the volatility structure itself. A crossover becomes more significant if it breaks cleanly through a prior established level.
🌊 Flow Boxes (Spaced Out Boxes):
What it represents: These are compact visual footprints of the current regime, colored green for Expansion and red for Contraction.
Interpretation: They provide a quick, at-a-glance confirmation of the dominant volatility flow, reinforcing the background color.
Background Color:
This provides an immediate, unmistakable indication of the current volatility regime. Light Green for Expansion and Light Aqua/Blue for Contraction, allowing you to assess the market environment in a split second.

Profit Factor: The historical Profit Factor was 2.663 . This metric represents the gross profit divided by the gross loss. In this test, it indicates that for every dollar lost, $2.663 was gained.
Percent Profitable: Across all 465 trades, the strategy had a historical win rate of 84.09% . While a high figure, this is a historical artifact of this specific data set and settings, and should not be the sole basis for future expectations.
Risk & Trade Characteristics
Beyond the headline numbers, the following metrics provide deeper insight into the strategy's historical behavior.
Sortino Ratio (Downside Risk): The Sortino Ratio was 6.828 . Unlike the Sharpe Ratio, this metric only measures the volatility of negative returns. A higher value, such as this one, suggests that during this test period, the strategy was highly efficient at managing downside volatility and large losing trades relative to the profits it generated.
Average Trade Duration: A critical characteristic to understand is the strategy's holding period. With an average of only 2 bars per trade , this configuration operates as a very short-term, or scalping-style, system. Winning trades averaged 2 bars, while losing trades averaged 4 bars. This indicates the strategy's logic is designed to capture quick, high-probability moves and exit rapidly, either at a profit target or a stop loss.
Conclusion and Final Disclaimer
This backtest demonstrates one specific application of the VoVix+ framework. It highlights the strategy's behavior as a short-term system that, in this historical test on NQ1!, exhibited a high win rate and effective management of downside risk. Users are strongly encouraged to conduct their own backtests on different instruments, timeframes, and date ranges to understand how the strategy adapts to varying market structures. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and all trading involves significant risk.
🔧 THE DEVELOPMENT PHILOSOPHY: FROM VOLATILITY TO CLARITY
The journey to create VoVix+ began with a simple question: "What drives major market moves?" The answer is often not a change in price direction, but a fundamental shift in market volatility. Standard indicators are reactive to price. We wanted to create a system that was predictive of market state. VoVix+ was designed to go one level deeper—to analyze the behavior, character, and momentum of volatility itself.
The challenge was twofold. First, to create a robust mathematical model to quantify these abstract concepts. This led to the multi-layered analysis of ATR differentials and standard deviations. Second, to make this complex data intuitive and actionable. This drove the creation of the "Visual Universe," where abstract mathematical values are translated into geometric shapes, flows, and fields. The adaptive system was intentionally kept simple and transparent, focusing on a single, impactful parameter (time-based exits) to provide performance feedback without becoming an inscrutable "black box." The result is a tool that is both profoundly deep in its analysis and remarkably clear in its presentation.
⚠️ RISK DISCLAIMER AND BEST PRACTICES
VoVix+ is an advanced analytical tool, not a guarantee of future profits. All financial markets carry inherent risk. The backtesting results shown by the strategy are historical and do not guarantee future performance. This strategy incorporates realistic commission and slippage settings by default, but market conditions can vary. Always practice sound risk management, use position sizes appropriate for your account equity, and never risk more than you can afford to lose. It is recommended to use this strategy as part of a comprehensive trading plan. This was developed specifically for Futures

BOR + 08:28BOR + TIME: Precision 1-Minute Opening Range Analysis
METHODOLOGY OVERVIEW
This indicator implements a proprietary time-based trading methodology that combines opening range analysis with precision timing algorithms designed exclusively for 1-minute charts during the New York trading session.
CORE ALGORITHM COMPONENTS
1. Bond Opening Range (BOR) Identification
- Captures the complete price range during 08:00-09:00 NY time
- Establishes the foundational trading range for the session
- Uses high-precision minute-level data to define exact boundaries
2. Critical Time Level Analysis (08:28 Candle)
- Identifies the 08:28-08:29 minute candle as a key reference point
- This specific timing represents a critical juncture before market open
- Captures the exact high/low range of this precise minute
3. Directional Bias Determination (09:00 Analysis)
- At exactly 09:00, compares current price position relative to 08:28 boundaries
- Above 08:28 High: Activates support-seeking mode (bullish bias)
- Below 08:28 Low: Activates resistance-seeking mode (bearish bias)
- Inside 08:28 Range: No directional bias established
4. Dynamic Standard Deviation Projections
- Uses the 08:28 candle range as the mathematical basis for standard deviation calculations
- Support Mode: Projects levels below 08:28 low using range multipliers (-1σ, -2σ, -3σ, -4σ)
- Resistance Mode: Projects levels above 08:28 high using range multipliers (+1σ, +2σ, +3σ, +4σ)
- Levels are active only during 09:00-10:30 trading window
UNIQUE FEATURES
