Overview

pine-scripts is a collection of TradingView indicators and strategies written in Pine Script v6. The source is on GitHub under the MIT licence; some scripts are also published on TradingView under the name WavesUnchained.

It is a running collection of ideas, not a finished product catalogue. Quality is treated as an ongoing process, carried out with AI assistance, and it covers more than code correctness: whether an indicator’s idea is sound, whether it is plausible on the instrument it is meant for, and whether it reads data that actually carries a signal there.

What it covers

• Indicators in nine groups: market structure, trend direction, trend strength and regime, momentum, mean reversion, money flow and volume, volatility, relative strength, and composite indicators that combine several of them.
• Strategies that wrap the signal logic of a few indicators for TradingView’s Strategy Tester.
• A data validity rule set that decides, per script, which data can carry a signal on which instrument, and a Data Contract in the script header that states the result. The Data Contract is being added to every script; not all of them carry it yet.

How the scripts are built

• One role per indicator. An indicator measures one thing — structure, trend strength, exhaustion — instead of voting on everything at once. Composite indicators combine roles explicitly and show which part drives the reading.
• Degrade instead of guessing. Where a script uses volume, it checks whether the feed delivers real trade volume. If not, the volume part switches off visibly and the remaining weights are renormalised.
• Confirmed alerts. The repository convention is that alerts fire on the closed bar, not on a bar that is still forming.

Where it stops

• Not advice. The scripts are for education and chart analysis. Nothing here recommends a trade, and no page states how profitable a signal is.
• Status varies. Many indicators are drafts that have not been validated on live charts yet. The CHANGELOG.md next to each script records what changed and when.
• TradingView only. The scripts run inside TradingView. Nothing here fetches market data, connects to a broker or places orders.

How the docs are organised

• Getting started: add a script to a chart, a first walkthrough, and the indicator index.
• Concepts: data validity and the Data Contract, alerts, and the strategy wrappers.
• Indicator groups: one page per indicator directory, built from the README.md in that directory. The README on GitHub and the page here are the same text.

Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past behaviour of an indicator says nothing about future results.
