AutoUFOs® (patented)OVERVIEW
AutoUFOs® is a market-analysis indicator that identifies price areas associated with potential Un-Filled Orders (UFOs). It plots those areas directly on the chart to help traders, investors, and commercial hedgers structure entry, stop, and target levels within their own trading or risk-management plans.
The indicator is an analytical tool. It does not generate complete trading systems or standalone trade signals.
UNDERLYING CONCEPT
A strong price movement can begin where buying and selling interest was materially imbalanced. The indicator analyzes market data surrounding such movements and applies its patented methodology to infer price areas where unfilled buying or selling interest may remain.
The indicator does not read or display the live order book. A UFO is therefore a model-derived area of potential order interest—not confirmation that a specific order exists or will remain available when price returns.
WHAT THE INDICATOR DISPLAYS
Green UFOs represent price areas associated with potential buy-side interest.
Red UFOs represent price areas associated with potential sell-side interest.
UFO Bands show the price range assigned to each identified area.
Each Flying Saucer contains two circles. The outer circle represents the full UFO area. The inner circle identifies a smaller area within it where the methodology expects a higher concentration of potential orders.
Color intensity communicates the methodology's relative assessment of an individual UFO area.
The displayed statistics are calculated separately from color intensity. They summarize all UFOs identified within the chart history made available to the indicator, including green, red, lighter, and darker UFOs.
These elements organize potentially relevant price areas; they do not guarantee that price will react at any particular level.
HOW IT CAN SUPPORT A TRADING WORKFLOW
It can be used to:
Locate candidate areas for entries or exits.
Define invalidation or protective-stop levels according to the user's trading plan.
Identify potential target areas.
Add price-location context to directional, trend, mean-reversion, options, or hedging workflows.
Analyze different markets and trade durations by changing the chart interval and indicator calibration.
A complete workflow should establish market direction and conditions independently before using UFO areas to plan execution and risk.
BASIC USE
Select the market and chart interval relevant to the intended trade duration.
Configure the available calibration settings for the instrument and workflow being analyzed.
Establish market direction and conditions using an independent analytical process.
Treat green and red UFOs as candidate reaction areas—not automatic instructions to buy or sell.
Define entry, invalidation, target, position size, and maximum acceptable risk before taking a trade.
MARKETS AND TIMEFRAMES
The indicator can be applied to supported instruments and chart intervals for which TradingView supplies sufficient data. Results can differ across symbols, feeds, sessions, chart types, intervals, and calibration settings. Users should evaluate whether the selected data and configuration are appropriate for their intended use.
IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS
It identifies model-derived areas of potential order interest; it does not confirm actual pending orders.
Identified areas can fail, disappear, or become irrelevant as market conditions and incoming data change.
Historical statistics or past reactions do not predict future results.
Different settings can materially change the indicator's output.
Data interruptions, corrections, feed differences, and unsupported chart configurations can affect calculations.
The indicator should not be the sole basis for any trading, investment, or hedging decision.
Trading involves risk. Users remain responsible for determining suitability, validating the analysis, and applying their own execution and risk-management rules. Nothing in this publication constitutes financial, investment, or trading advice. AutoClimateOVERVIEW
AutoClimate™ is a market-environment indicator that organizes three dimensions of market behavior: direction, sustainability, and volatility. It helps traders, investors, and commercial hedgers evaluate whether current conditions align with the directional and time-horizon requirements of their own plans.
The indicator provides analytical context. It does not generate a complete trading system or standalone instructions to buy, sell, or hold.
UNDERLYING CONCEPT
Markets can behave differently depending on direction, trend confirmation, elapsed movement, and distance from a representative price. The indicator combines exponential moving average (EMA), directional movement (DMI), Average True Range (ATR), and historical-duration calculations to summarize those conditions consistently.
The selected chart interval establishes the analytical horizon. A daily chart, for example, evaluates a different market climate from an intraday chart. Calibration settings also affect the classification and statistics displayed.
WHAT THE INDICATOR DISPLAYS
Blue dots identify an up climate; red dots identify a down climate.
Thick dots represent confirmed climate conditions; thin dots represent unconfirmed climate conditions.
The ATR Spread shows the distance between current price and the model's reference price, expressed as a multiple of ATR.
The position and color of the ATR Spread show whether price is extending in the direction of the identified climate or has moved beyond the reference price in the opposite direction.
The indicator displays six statistics: the current extension in ATR multiples; the historical up- and down-climate Max Distance references; the historical up- and down-climate duration references; and the number of bars elapsed in the current climate.
The historical statistics depend on the chart data available to the indicator and the selected calibration. They describe the analyzed sample and can be used to infer a range of behavior that may be considered normal under comparable future conditions. They do not predict or guarantee how far price will travel or how long the current climate will continue.
THREE ANALYTICAL DIMENSIONS
Direction
The dot color classifies the current environment as an up or down climate. Dot thickness distinguishes confirmed from unconfirmed conditions.
Sustainability
The duration statistics provide historical context for how many bars up and down climates have lasted within the analyzed chart data. The Count reference uses one standard deviation. Users can compare those reference values with the elapsed duration of the current climate.
Volatility and distance
The ATR Spread expresses how far price is from the model's reference price in volatility-adjusted terms. The Max Distance reference uses two standard deviations. A large distance identifies an extended condition; it does not, by itself, predict a reversal.
BASIC USE
Select the market and chart interval corresponding to the intended analytical or trade horizon.
Configure the EMA Length, DMI Length, and ATR Length settings for the market and workflow being evaluated.
Read the dot color for direction and dot thickness for confirmation status.
Compare the elapsed duration of the current climate with the displayed historical-duration statistics.
Review the ATR Spread to understand current price distance in volatility-adjusted terms.
Apply an independent process for entry, invalidation, target, position size, and maximum acceptable risk.
MARKETS AND TIMEFRAMES
The indicator can be applied to supported instruments and chart intervals for which TradingView supplies sufficient data. Results can differ across symbols, feeds, sessions, chart types, intervals, available history, and calibration settings. Users should evaluate whether the selected data and configuration are appropriate for their intended use.
IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS
Climate classifications can change as new market data arrives.
Confirmed conditions can fail and unconfirmed conditions can subsequently become confirmed.
Historical duration is descriptive and does not forecast the exact remaining life of a climate.
ATR distance measures extension from a reference price; it is not an automatic reversal signal.
Different settings can materially change classifications, statistics, and visual output.
Data interruptions, corrections, feed differences, and unsupported chart configurations can affect calculations.
The indicator should not be the sole basis for any trading, investment, or hedging decision.
Trading involves risk. Users remain responsible for determining suitability, validating the analysis, and applying their own execution and risk-management rules. Nothing in this publication constitutes financial, investment, or trading advice.
