ORB Algo | Flux Charts

Here is the link. 

Jan 10, 2024

💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ORB Algo indicator! ORB stands for "Opening Range Breakout" which is a common trading strategy. The indicator can analyze the market trend in the current session and give "Buy / Sell", "Take Profit" and "Stop Loss" signals. For more information about the analyzing process of the indicator, you can read "How Does It Work ?" section of the description.

Features of the new ORB Algo indicator :

1. Buy & Sell Signals
   
2. Up To 3 Take Profit Signals
   
3. Stop-Loss Signals
   
4. Alerts for Buy / Sell, Take-Profit and Stop-Loss
   
5. Customizable Algoritm
   
6. Session Dashboard
   
7. Backtesting Dashboard
   

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
This indicator works best in 1-minute timeframe. The idea is that the trend of the current session can be forecasted by analyzing the market for a while after the session starts. However, each market has it's own dynamics and the algorithm will need fine-tuning to get the best performance possible. So, we've implemented a "Backtesting Dashboard" that shows the past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker with your current settings. Always keep in mind that past performance does not guarantee future results.

Here are the steps of the algorithm explained briefly :

1. The algorithm follows and analyzes the first 30 minutes (can be adjusted) of the session.

2. Then, algorithm checks for breakouts of the opening range's high or low.

3. If a breakout happens in a bullish or a bearish direction, the algorithm will now check for retests of the breakout. Depending on the sensitivity setting, there must be 0 / 1 / 2 / 3 failed retests for the breakout to be considered as reliable.

4. If the breakout is reliable, the algorithm will give an entry signal.

5. After the position entry, algorithm will now wait for Take-Profit or Stop-Loss zones and signal if any of them occur.

If you wonder how does the indicator find Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones, you can check the "Settings" section of the description.

🚩UNIQUENESS
While there are indicators that show the opening range of the session, they come short with features like indicating breakouts, entries, and Take-Profit & Stop-Loss zones. We are also aware of that different stock markets have different dynamics, and tuning the algorithm for different markets is really important for better results, so we decided to make the algorithm fully customizable. Besides all that, our indicator contains a detailed backtesting dashboard, so you can see past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker. While past performance does not yield any guarantee for future results, we believe that a backtesting dashboard is necessary for tuning the algorithm. Another strength of this indicator is that there are multiple options for detection of Take-Profit and Stop-Loss zones, which the trader can select one of their liking.

⚙️SETTINGS

Keep in mind that best chart timeframe for this indicator to work is the 1-minute timeframe.

TP = Take-Profit
SL = Stop-Loss
EMA = Exponential Moving Average
OR = Opening Range
ATR = Average True Range

1. Algorithm

ORB Timeframe -> This setting determines the timeframe that the algorithm will analyze the market after a new session begins before giving any signals. It's important to experiment with this setting and find the best option that suits the current ticker for the best performance. More volatile stocks will often require this setting to be larger, while more stabilized stocks may have this setting shorter.

Sensitivity -> This setting determines how much failed retests are needed to take a position entry. Higher senstivity means that less retests are needed to consider the breakout as reliable. If you think that the current ticker makes strong movements in a bullish & bearish direction after a breakout, you should set this setting higher. If you think the opposite, meaning that the ticker does not decide the trend right after a breakout, this setting show be lower.
(High = 0 Retests, Medium = 1 Retest, Low = 2 Retests, Lowest = 3 Retests)Breakout Condition -> The condition for the algorithm to detect breakouts.
Close = Bar needs to close higher than the OR High Line in a bullish breakout, or lower than the OR Low Line in a bearish breakout. EMA = The EMA of the bar must be higher / lower than OR Lines instead of the close price.

TP Method -> The method for the algorithm to use when determining TP zones.
Dynamic = This TP method essentially tries to find the bar that price starts declining the current trend and going to the other direction, and puts a TP zone there. To achieve this, it uses an EMA line, and when the close price of a bar crosses the EMA line, It's a TP spot.

ATR = In this TP method, instead of a dynamic approach the TP zones are pre-determined using the ATR of the entry bar. This option is generally for traders who just want to know their TP spots beforehand while trading. Selecting this option will also show TP zones at the ORB Dashboard.

"Dynamic" option generally performs better, while the "ATR" method is safer to use.
EMA Length -> This setting determines the length of the EMA line used in "Dynamic TP method" and "EMA Breakout Condition". This is completely up to the trader's choice, though the default option should generally perform well. You might want to experiment with this setting and find the optimal length for the current ticker.
Stop-Loss -> Algorithm will place the Stop-Loss zone using setting.
Safer = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR High for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR Low for a bearish entry.

Balanced = The SL zone will be placed in the center of OR High & OR Low

Risky = The SL zone will be placed closer to the OR Low for a bullish entry, and closer to the OR High for a bearish entry.

Adaptive SL -> This option only takes effect if the first TP zone is hit.
Enabled = After the 1st TP zone is hit, the SL zone will be moved to the entry price, essentially making the position risk-free.
Disabled = The SL zone will never change.

2. ORB Dashboard

ORB Dashboard shows the information about the current session.
3. ORB Backtesting

ORB Backtesting Dashboard allows you to see past performance of the algorithm in the current ticker with current settings.
Total amount of days that can be backtested depends on your TV subscription.

Backtesting Exit Ratios -> You can select how much of percent your entry will be closed at any TP zone while backtesting. For example, %90, %5, %5 means that %90 of the position will be closed at the first TP zone, %5 of it will be closed at the 2nd TP zone, and %5 of it will be closed at the last TP zone.

Release Notes

• Fixed a rare bug when creating alerts.
  
• You can now customize the session starting time from the settings.

Order Blocks | Flux Charts

Here is the article. 

Introducing our new Volumized Order Blocks indicator! This new indicator can render order blocks with their volumetric information. It's highly customizable with detection, invalidation and style settings.

Features of the new Volumized Order Blocks [MTF] indicator :

1. Render Bullish & Bearish Order Blocks
   
2. Enable / Disable Volumetric Information
   
3. Enable / Disable Historic Zones
   
4. Visual Customizability
   

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific formations on the chart.

The high & low volume of order blocks should be taken into consideration while determining their strengths. The determination of the high & low volume of order blocks are similar to FVGs, in a bullish order block, the high volume is the last 2 bars' total volume, while the low volume is the oldest bar's volume. In a bearish order block scenario, the low volume becomes the last 2 bars' total volume.

🚩UNIQUENESS
The ability to render the total volume of Order Blocks as well as bullish / bearish volume ratio is what sets this Order Block indicator apart from others. Also the ability to combine overlapping Order Block zones will result in cleaner charts for traders.

⚙️SETTINGS

1. General Configuration
Volumetric Info -> The volumetric information of the Order Blocks will be rendered if activated.

Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for Order Block Invalidation.

Swing Length -> Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.

诺奖得主批大而美法案：劫贫济富 只为向川普献媚

 美国总统川普的“大而美法案”大砍联邦医疗补助（Medicaid），让数以百万计低收入民众失去医疗保险，还削减赈济穷人的粮食券计划。诺贝尔经济学奖得主克鲁曼痛批，此恶法“劫贫济富”的程度史无前例，从国会预算办公室（CBO）最新公布的数据得到印证。

CBO由经济技术幕僚组成，这个不偏党派的机构12日公布的数据令人震惊。根据CBO最新估计，“大而美法案”若以通过众院的版本实施，将导致美国年所得最底层10%的家庭购买力在2026年至2034年大减4%，对这些最贫困家庭的打击可与严重经济衰退相提并论。更可恶的是，这是故意为之。

对照下，CBO估计，“大而美法案”上路后，全美财富顶尖10%家庭的购买力将增加将近3%。

实施这项预算和支出法案对美国最穷困民众造成的痛苦，并非为降低预算赤字不得不付出的代价。这项法案一边大砍所得分布最底层家庭的社福津贴，一边给所得分布最顶层的家庭减税。所以净效应便是美国预算赤字大增。

更糟的是，CBO的分析尚未把川普2.0关税对家庭所得的冲击纳入计算。这点很重要，因为关税本就是一种税，而且是累退税（regressive tax），低所得家庭受到的打击远超过高所得家庭。

耶鲁预算实验室（Yale Budget Lab）分析，川普关税将加剧“大而美法案”对美国家庭所得的冲击：收入底层10%家庭所得遭受的影响将从4%扩大至6.5%。整体而言，底部80%家庭受“大而美法案”与关税夹击，所得都将萎缩；唯独顶层10%家庭是这项助长赤字法案的明显受惠者。

最新数据才发布，共和党议员就谴责CBO的估计数字造假，并宣称给富人减税将加速经济成长，尽管这种说法一再被戳破。

事实上，CBO分析的基本结论不容置疑。“大而美法案”可谓倒行逆施的罗宾汉，不是劫富济贫，而是劫贫济富，把资源从最需要的穷人身上夺走，只为给富人锦上添花，而这么做不仅会导致赤字扩增，还会推升利率水准并排挤投资。

既然这项恶法如此糟糕，民主国家怎会有政党甘愿为图利富人而得罪80%的人民？克鲁曼认为，共和党之所以这么做，是因为他们畏惧川普，更甚于害怕选民反弹。

“大而美法案”正式名称叫“一个大而美的法案”（One Big Beautiful Bill Act）。为何取这么一个粗俗可笑的名称？因为是川普亲自命名，共和党议员为了拍他马屁，不惜作贱自己。这令人联想到小说《生命中不可承受的轻》作者米兰·昆德拉所谓的极权主义式媚俗（totalitarian kitsch）。

因此，共和党称之为“一个大而美的法案”便形同证实，华府已转变成波拉马克河畔的平壤，政治生命仰赖向极权统治者屈膝献媚。

金价、油价暴涨！伊以冲突如何影响金融市场？专家解读

来源: ZAKER 于 2025-06-13 02:09:33 [档案] [博客] [旧帖] [给我悄悄话] 阅读数 : 127 (1820 bytes) 

以色列军方13日证实袭击了伊朗数十个与核计划相关的设施目标。伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队总司令萨拉米等多名革命卫队指挥官、核科学家在以色列发动的袭击中身亡。

中东地缘局势再升级，金价飙升，国际油价创阶段新高。6月13日，WTI原油期货盘中大涨超13%，最高触及77.62美元/桶，创1月17日以来新高；布伦特油盘中亦飙涨逾13%，最高涨至78.50美元/桶，刷新1月23日以来新高。国际金价方面，伦敦现货黄金盘中最高触及3444.5美元／盎司，日内涨幅最高超过1%，刷新4月22日以来新高；COMEX黄金期价一度涨近2%，最高达3467美元/盎司。

“地缘政治紧张会对市场造成冲击，投资者会有恐慌情绪。”如是金融研究院院长管清友表示。

中东局势骤然紧张对金融市场有何影响？管清友分析，金价方面，黄金价格因避险需求而上涨在“情理之中”，长期支撑金价的逻辑没有变，黄金依然处在上世纪70年代以来的第三轮牛市中。

“油价暴涨可以理解”，管清友表示，伊朗是重要的产油国，同时又扼守世界上最重要的石油海上运输通道，人们担心石油供给出现问题。但短期油价上涨并不意味着未来油价一直维持在高位，一方面，要看运输受阻以及对伊朗石油生产可能受到影响的担忧情绪；另一方面，还要看OPEC+目前的产能产量以及增产意图。

股票市场方面，管清友称，对于那些持有优质标的，或始终密切关注市场的投资者来说，反倒是一个重要的“黄金坑”。他提醒称，投资者也没必要恐慌，市场的波动是正常的。
