Shows how stormy the market is and how big the next candles are likely to be. A colored ribbon along the bottom gives the weather (calm, normal, building, storm) and a channel around price widens and tightens with it.
Good for Setting stop distance and position size to current volatility. It forecasts the size of moves, never their direction, and it needs no settings.
Shows how close a buy or sell signal is to firing, before it fires. A live gauge beside the last candle marks the exact prices at which the open bar's close would lock a Buy or a Sell.
Good for Watching a signal build tick by tick. Signals lock at bar close and never move; while a bar is open they show as translucent ghost orbs.
Draws a fan of expected price range ahead of the last closed bar, based on how far price travelled in comparable past windows, scaled to current volatility (ATR).
Good for Sizing stops and targets. It is a range, not a forecast: no directional bias, and a small panel checks how the previous fan performed.
An indicator for TradingView that reads the market and shows its sentiment, bullish or bearish, in real time. It also shows when the sentiment weakens and when a shift follows.
Good for Reading whether sentiment is bullish or bearish, and when it weakens or shifts.
A regression channel fitted to the logarithm of price, so it follows percentage moves. It also classifies the market as trending, drifting or ranging.
Good for Reading the pace of a trend (steady, speeding up, cooling, reversing) and where price sits inside the channel. Fit quality (R-squared) shows how much to trust it.
Tracks each trend leg with an ATR-based ZigZag and ranks the current leg's age and size against up to 100 completed legs in the same direction on your own chart.
Good for Judging whether a move is young, mid-life or mature. A four-line panel and a shaded zone show how close price is to confirming the leg over.
An indicator for TradingView that automatically identifies support and resistance levels and the bullish and bearish zones that go with them. It keeps highlighting the levels and zones as the market moves.
Good for Seeing support and resistance levels and their zones drawn on the chart automatically.
Turns recent swing highs and lows into clean ATR-sized zones instead of thin lines, and keeps a running record of what happens to each one.
Good for Seeing which levels are active. Each zone has an activity tier, and a permanent Broken status once price closes through it.
An alternative to the standard RSI for TradingView. It identifies and highlights hidden exhaustion levels, including when the RSI is neither overbought nor oversold, and it can help confirm extreme overbought or oversold readings.
Good for Reading RSI exhaustion levels, also when the RSI is neither overbought nor oversold.
An indicator for TradingView that identifies breakouts of key hidden levels by reading price action and colouring the bars in real time.
Good for Seeing breakouts of key levels marked directly on the bars.
A signal indicator for TradingView that marks potential market bottoms and tops. It shows a graphical mark on the chart when it detects a new market extreme, so a position can be considered or reviewed.
Good for Reviewing possible market extremes on a chart, together with your own analysis.
A trading indicator for TradingView that shows buy and sell signals directly on the chart, together with support and resistance levels that can be used to review where to exit a position.
Good for Seeing signals and levels together on one chart, to read alongside your own analysis.
