Ultimate IndicatorThis is a combination of all the price chart indicators I frequently switch between. It contains my day time highlighter (for day trading), multi-timeframe long-term trend indicator for current commodity in the bottom right, customizable trend EMA which also has multi-timeframe drawing capabilities, VWAP, customizable indicators with separate settings from the trend indicator including: EMA, HL2 over time, Donchian Channels, Keltner Channels, Bollinger Bands, and Super Trend. The settings for these are right below the trend settings and can have their length and multiplier adjusted. All of those also have multi-timeframe capabilities separate from the trend multi-time settings.
The Day Trade Highlight option will draw faint yellow between 9:15-9:25, red between 9:25-9:45, yellow between 9:45-10:05. There will be one white background at 9:30am to show the opening of the market. while the market is open there will be a very faint blue background. For the end of the day there will be yellow between 15:45-15:50, red between 15:50-16:00, and yellow between 16:00-16:05. During the night hours, there is no coloring. The purpose of this highlight is to show the opening / closing times of the market and the hot times for large moves.
The indicators can also be colored in the following ways:
1. Simple = Makes all colors for the indicator Gray
2. Trend = Will use the Donchian Channels to get the short-trend direction and by default will color the short-term direction as Blue or Red. Unless using Super Trend, the Donchian Channel is used to find short-term trend direction.
3. Trend Adv = Will use the Donchian Channels to get the short-trend direction and by default will color the short-term direction as Blue or Red. Unless using Super Trend, the Donchian Channel is used to find short-term trend direction. If there is a short-term up-trend during a long-term down-trend, the Blue will become Navy. If short-term down-trend during long-term up-trend, the Red will be Brown.
4. Squeeze = Compares the Bollinger Bands width to the Keltner Channels width and will color based on relative squeeze of the market: Teal = no squeeze. Yellow = little squeeze. Red = decent squeeze. White = huge squeeze. if you do not understand this one, try drawing the Bollinger Bands while using the Squeeze color option and it should become more apparent how this works. I also recommend leaving the length and multiplier to the default 20 and 2 if using this setting and only changing the timeframe to get longer/shorter lengths as I've seen that changing the length or multiplier can more or less make it not work at all.
Along with the indicator settings are options to draw lines/labels/fills for the indicator. I enjoy having only fills for a cleaner look.
The Labels option will show Buy/Sell signals when the short-term trend flips to agree with the long-term trend.
The Trend Bars option will do the same as the Labels option but instead will color the bars white when a Buy/Sell option is given.
The Range Bars option shows will color a bar white when the Close of a candle is outside of a respective ranging indicator option (Bollinger or Keltner).
The Trend Bars will draw white candles no matter which indicator selection you make (even "Off"). However, Range Bars will only draw white when either Bollinger or Keltner are selected.
The Donchian Channels and Super Trend are trending indicators and should be used during trending markets. I like to use the MACD in conjunction with these indicators for possibly earlier entries.
The Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channel are ranging indicators and should be used during ranging markets. I like to use the RSI in conjunction with these indicators and will use 60/40 for overbought and oversold areas rather than 70/30. During a range, I wait for an overbought or oversold indication and will buy/sell when it crosses back into the middle area and close my position when it touches the opposite band.
I have a MACD/RSI combination indicator if you'd like that as well :D
As always, trade at your own risk. This is not some secret indicator that will 100% win. As always, the trades you see in the picture use a 1:1.5 or 1:2 risk to reward ratio, for today (August 8, 2022) it won 5/6 times with one trade still open at the end of the day. Manage your account correctly and you'll win in the long term. Hit me up with any questions or suggestions. Happy Trading! Indicator
Donchian Channels+Standard Donchian Channels, this includes a Trend EMA which can be configured and the channels will use to give buy and sell signals. The channels are also colored in such a way to indicate a trend reversals. My favorite part that sets this apart from others is, if using the bClose option (which I recommend you do) the trend will not reverse until there is a close above/below the previous channel high/low. i.e. a reversal into an uptrend requires the current bar to close above the previous upper channel rather than just a new high.
The coloring of the current trend allows for a quick read of current market conditions and I use this on any timeframe across all forms of charts (forex stock, futures , crypto, etc). When taking one of the signals I use the opposite channel as the stop loss (when buying use bottom, and selling use top channel)
Update 1:
- Added my name to the code
- Updated the picture to show off the indicator better
- Raised the brightness of the fill color a bit, looks nicer I think
As a warning: I have obviously hand picked this picture to really show off this indicator's power to work in a trending market. Donchian Channels are a trending indicator and work best in trending markets with decent pull backs. If there are multiple signals going in each direction, it is a choppy market and you should stay out until it starts trending again. I generally use a 1:1.5 risk to reward ratio but sometimes will stretch it to 1:2 if it is a nice trade and I feel the market is in my favor as you can see from the trades placed in the picture (and I use that method for any commodity / chart and timeframe). I use the close of the white candle and then (since they are trades going short) I use the upper Donchian Channel as my stop loss.
I personally like to have the lines and labels turned off and enable all other options. Labels are just there to really stand out so you don't miss the white candle indication for a trade. OH! Also, I've had comments from friends that the white candles are hard to see, I turn off my candle borders in settings; makes it super easy to see them then. I turn lines off as the fill does the job well enough and it seems cleaner in my eyes.
If you'd like to see this picture on your chart, it is Micro E-Mini S&P 500 Futures from July 10, 2022 @ 18:00 on the 1-min chart.
just now
Update 2:
- Added day trading time highlights
- Added ranging market indicator (This I'm still working on so use at your own discretion, it's intended purpose is to tell when the Donchian Channels are not going to give great signals and to use a ranging indicator instead)
- Added multi-timeframe trend screener (handy if you want to quickly see the trend direction (based on the Trend EMA you set) of several time frames without having to change charts). It will draw in the bottom right of the chart. Indicator

God Number Channel V1 (GNC V1)Channel, made of 5 MAs, which a made this way: High of N-period SMA - Low of N-period SMA + X-period SMA (check the code), where N and X are defined by your input.
Main purpose: helps you understand in what range price can move.
WARNING!
HAS TO BE USED WITH OTHER INDICATORS TO HAVE MORE ACCURATE ENTRIES!!!
If the price is above or below the channel, it means that the movement is very strong and you count it as a trend, but be careful then the price returns to the channel, as correction will follow very soon. Use fib correction tool to understand the approximate depth of correction, works pretty good.
Recommendation: consider using the Vortex Indicator( len 21 and 14 are fine; for trend) and "Vumanchu Divergencies + B"(for anything, but calibrate for accuracy, otherwise there will be too much false signals). If you want to see more options where the price might go, just add new MA and add/substract to/from its value avg1*(any of fibonacci correction levels, I personally use 1.618 and 2.618 and for me it is ok): plot(show_ma1 ? ma1+( [ [ ]]]*avg1) : na, color = ma1_color, title="MA №1")
Recommendations and feedback are welcome(!)

Volume OximeterOVERVIEW
The Volume Oximeter (VOXI) is a technical indicator that gauges the amount of volume currently present in the market, relative to the historical volume that was present before. The purpose of this indicator is to filter out with-trend signals during ranging/non-trending conditions.
CONCEPTS
This indicator assumes that trends are more likely to start during periods of high volume, compared to during periods of low volume. This is because high volume indicates that there are bigger players currently in the market, which is necessary to begin a sustained trending move.
So, to determine whether the current volume is "high", it is compared to an average volume for however number of candles back the user specifies.
If the current volume is greater than the average volume, it is reasonable to assume we are in a high volume period. Thus, this is the ideal time to enter a trending trade due to the assumption that trends are more likely to start during these high volume periods.
The default values in the indicator are designed for use on the daily chart but can be applied to any timeframe.
The default volume lookback period is 259 since there are usually 259 daily candles in a year on Forex daily charts. This means that the average volume will represent the average volume over the past year. This would be 365 on Crypto daily charts, since the Crypto is open 24/7 instead of 24/5). This is what the current volume will be compared to.
The default smoothing lookback period is 10, but this can be adjusted depending on the indicator that's giving you your with-trend signals. After my backtesting, 10 was the best value for my with-trend indicator, so you should do your own testing to see which value works best with your with-trend indicator.
HOW DO I READ THIS INDICATOR?
If the VOXI line is above or equal to zero (indicated by the blue color), the current volume is greater than the historical average volume.
This is a good time to take with-trend signals since high volume is necessary for sustained trending moves to begin.
If the VOXI line is below zero (indicated by the red color), the current volume is less than the historical average volume.
This is a good time to ignore with-trend signals since an absence of volume indicates that there aren't big market participants to participate in a new trending move. Indicator
