An overlay indicator that runs price through a Kalman filter and builds adaptive noise bands from the tracking error around the estimate. The trend flips bullish when price closes above the upper band with positive velocity, and bearish when it closes below th
Overlay indicator for XAUUSD gold that draws predicted support and resistance levels at 08:00 and 19:00 SGT on the price chart along with buy and sell take-profit levels spaced by ATR multiples. It generates RSI reversal signals as triangles when the indicator
A separate-pane momentum and volatility indicator in the style of the TTM Squeeze. It plots a linear-regression oscillator as columns coloured by direction and by whether momentum is rising or falling, with yellow marks on the zero line while Bollinger Bands s
Applies a fluid-dynamics analogy to price in a separate pane. A raw Reynolds-style number divides candle body size, signed by price against a moving average, by ATR. It is normalised and ranked by percentile to classify flow as laminar, turbulent, viscous or s
This indicator measures Bollinger Band width as a percentage of the middle band and plots it in a separate pane. It marks a squeeze when that width equals its lowest value over 126 bars and also flags bars where the Bollinger Bands sit inside Keltner Channels
A cleaner display version of a volume-based whale detector on the price chart. It uses a volume percentile and z-score gate, scales ATR thresholds by a low, normal or high volatility regime, and marks price impact bars, iceberg-style absorption, clusters and e
Calculates L-moments of a rolling window of log returns or the raw source: the mean, L-scale, L-skewness and L-kurtosis. A selector chooses which moment is plotted, and the lookback sets the window size. For kurtosis it draws a reference level for a chosen the
A second version of a four-hour rounded bottom and top pattern indicator. A sharp drop or pump followed by a slow recovery or decline, filtered by a daily EMA, creates a long or short setup. Risk is expressed in R multiples with an ATR-based stop, staged targe
The Hybrid Overbought/Oversold Detector combines several classic technical indicators, such as Bollinger Bands %B, CCI, CMF, and CMO, into a consolidated oscillator displayed in a separate pane. It calculates aggregate momentum and volume conditions to identif

Third-party code. ForexR lists open-source Pine scripts from GitHub; it did not write, test or endorse them, and their summaries are generated automatically from each script's code and README. Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading. Check a script on a demo account before you rely on it. CFDs and leveraged forex are complex instruments with a high risk of losing money rapidly.
