Combo VIX and DXYHello traders
It's been a while :)
I wanted to share a cool script that you can use for any asset class.
The script isn't really special - though what it displays is super helpful
Volatility Index $VIX
(Source: Wikipedia)
VIX is the ticker symbol and the popular name for the Chicago Board Options Exchange's CBOE Volatility Index, a popular measure of the stock market's expectation of volatility based on S&P 500 index options.
It is calculated and disseminated on a real-time basis by the CBOE, and is often referred to as the fear index or fear gauge.
I consider that a $VIX above 30% is a very bearish signal.
Above 30% translating investors selling in masse their assets. #blood #on #the #street
Dollar Index $DXY
(Source: Wikipedia)
The U.S. Dollar Index (USDX, DXY, DX, or, informally, the "Dixie") is an index (or measure) of the value of the United States dollar relative to a basket of foreign currencies, often referred to as a basket of U.S. trade partners' currencies.
The Index goes up when the U.S. dollar gains "strength" (value) when compared to other currencies.
The index is designed, maintained, and published by ICE (Intercontinental Exchange, Inc.), with the name "U.S. Dollar Index" a registered trademark.
It is a weighted geometric mean of the dollar's value relative to following select currencies:
Euro (EUR), 57.6% weight
Japanese yen (JPY) 13.6% weight
Pound sterling (GBP), 11.9% weight
Canadian dollar (CAD), 9.1% weight
Swedish krona (SEK), 4.2% weight
Swiss franc (CHF) 3.6% weight
In "bear markets", the $DXY usually goes up.
People are selling their hard assets to get some $USD in return - pumping the $DXY higher
Corollary
I'm not sure which one happens first between a bearish $DXY or bearish $DXY... though both are usually correlated
If:
- $VIX goes above 30%, usually $DXY increases and assets versus the good old' $USD drop
- $VIX goes below 30%, usually $DXY decreases and assets versus the good old' $USD increases
This is a nice lever effect between both the $VIX, $DXY and the assets versus the $USD
That's being said, I don't only use those 2 information to enter in a trade.
It gives me though a strong confirmation whenever I'm long or short
Imagine I get a LONG signal but the combo $VIX + $DXY is bearish... this tells me to be cautious and to:
- enter at a pullback
- protect my position quickly at breakeven
- take my profit quick
For a mega bull market (some called it hyperinflation), you want your fiat to drop in value for the counter-asset to increase in value.
And before you ask.... yes I look at what $DXY is doing before taking a trade on $BTCUSD :)
In other words, $DXY going down is quite bullish for Bitcoin.
Settings and Alerts
The settings by default are the ones I use for my trading.
The background colors will be colored whenever the COMBO is bullish (green) or bearish (red)
Alerts are enabled using the brand new alert function published last week by @PulseWire
That's it for today, I hope you'll like it :)
PS: In this chart above, I'm using the Supertrend indicator from @KivancOzbilgic

CC - Macro Consolidated Interval Display (MCID)Ever wish you didn't have to rapidly flip between 6 different tickers to get the full picture?
Yeah, me too. Do you also wish that you kind of understood how the shift / unshift function works for arrays?
Yeah, I did too. Both of those birds are taken care of with one stone!
The Macro Consolidated Interval Display uses the new Array structure and security to display data for VIX, GLD, TLT, QQQ, SPY and IWM (at a 1D interval) SIMUTANEOUSLY! Regardless of which ticker you're looking at you can get the full picture of macro futures data without flipping around to get it.
This is my first script trying to use arrays. It basically shows the following a 1d interval:
ATR14, RSI7, RSI14, SMA50, SMA200 and VWAP for VIX.
ATR14, RSI7, RSI14, SMA50, SMA200 and VWAP for GLD.
ATR14, RSI7, RSI14, SMA50, SMA200 and VWAP for TLT.
ATR14, RSI7, RSI14, SMA50, SMA200 and VWAP for QQQ.
ATR14, RSI7, RSI14, SMA50, SMA200 and VWAP for SPY.
ATR14, RSI7, RSI14, SMA50, SMA200 and VWAP for IWM
To make it more or less busy, I've allowed you to toggle off any of the levels you wish. I've also chosen to leave this as open source, as it's nothing too experimental, and I hope that it can gain some traction as an Array example that the public can use! If you don't like the different values that are shown, use this source code example as a spring-board to put values that you do care about onto the labels.
If this code has helped you at all please drop me a like or some constructive criticism if you do not think it's worth a like.
Good luck and happy trading friends. This should be compatible with my CID as well:
If this gets traction, I will post something similar for a dynamic combination of tickers and intervals that you can set yourself. Indicator

Custom Time ranges. Daily price ranges.Addition to previous time range script, now containing daily ranges. You can select a day of the week, and have it show the high, low, mid, and open of that day.
For the time bands:
Monday = 2
Tuesday = 3
Wednesday = 4
Thursday = 5
Friday = 6
Saturday = 7
Sunday = 1
Example 1:
1500-1800:2
This will colour the background between 3pm and 6pm on Mondays.
Example 2:
0000-0600:247
This will colour the background between midnight and 6am on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays.
For the Daily price ranges:
Just select the tick-box forthe day, and then the price levels you'd like to see.
I want to add specific weekly levels to this, for example: week 06 of year 2020, but I've not figured out how to do it yet. If anyone knows, I'd appreciate it if you let me know. I'll then update this script.
As always, any questions you may have, please leave in comments below and I'll respond when I have time.
If you notice anything good with this indicator, let me know. We are all in this to make money after all! ;) Indicator

CoT Absolute Percent-Buschi
English
I'm often asked to provide an alternate view on the CoT data. For example, the indicator "Commercial index" is an oscillator from 0 to 100, but oftentimes it can be helpful to look at the absolute position. So, here the absolute position of certain parts of the CoT report are given, alongside with the percentage of a given time frame to put them in place.
The inputs are:
CoT Part Number ('1' for Commercials Short, '2' for Commercials Long, '3' for Commercials Netto, '4' for Large Speculators Short, '5' for Large Speculators Long, '6' for Large Speculators Netto, '7' for Small Speculators Short, '8' for Small Speculators Long, '9' for Small Speculators Netto, '10' for Open Interest)
Review Period (in years, just used for the percentage)
Percent Line 1, 2, 3, 4 (just to provide some lines which can be altered as required)
DISCLAIMER: I'm aware of Pine Script's ability to provide options as inputs (which would be much nicer for the CoT Parts). Alas, it is only available since version 3, and I noticed that for some reason the CoT data is not correctly adjusted to last Tuesday when using higher versions than 1. If someone knows a solution, please contact me.
Deutsch
Ich werde oft gefragt, eine alternative Sicht auf die CoT-Daten zu geben. Der Indikator "Commercial Index" zum Beispiel schwankt als Oszillator zwischen 0 und 100, aber oft kann der Blick auf die absolute Positionierung hilfreich sein. Also werden hier die Absolutpositionen verschiedene CoT-Bestandteile wiedergegeben, zusammen mit einer prozentualen Einteilung über eine vorgegebene Zeitspanne, um sie einordnen zu können.
The Eingaben lauten:
CoT Part Number ('1' Commercials Short, '2' Commercials Long, '3' Commercials Netto, '4' Large Speculators Short, '5' Large Speculators Long, '6' Large Speculators Netto, '7' Snall Speculators Short, '8' Small Speculators Long, '9' Small Speculators Netto, '10' Open Interest)
Review Period (Zeitintervall in Jahren, um die Prozentlinien zeichnen zu können)
Percent Line 1, 2, 3, 4 (um die Prozentlinien zur Verfügung zu stellen, die dann beliebig geändert werden können)
DISCLAIMER: Ich weiß über die Möglichkeit Bescheid, ab Pine Script Version 3 Optionen als Eingaben benutzen zu können (was deutlich angenehmer für die CoT-Bestandteile wäre). Leider habe ich gemerkt, dass die CoT-Daten bei Versionen über 1 leider nicht korrekt auf letzten Dienstag adjustiert werden, keine Ahnung warum. Falls jemand eine Lösung kennt, bitte kontaktieren.
