☄️ Correlation HeatMap Indicator on TradingView - [TradingFinder]


Indicator Overview

The Correlation HeatMap Indicator is available on TradingView and the TradingFinder website. It visually displays correlations between different assets using a heatmap with cool (positive correlation) and warm (negative correlation) colors.

  • Supports multiple asset classes: forex, stocks, cryptocurrencies, and custom modes.
  • Can display trading sessions (London, New York, Tokyo) to analyze correlation changes during different market hours.

Assets, Tickers, and Sectors Mentioned

  • Forex pairs and commodities: XAUUSD (Gold), XAGUSD (Silver)
  • Cryptocurrencies: Litecoin (LTC), Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH)
  • Other symbols: XQSD (likely a custom or less common symbol)
  • Trading sessions: London, New York, Tokyo

Key Functionalities & Metrics

  • Correlation scale ranges from -1 (or -100%) to +1 (or +100%)
    • Cool colors indicate positive correlation (assets moving in the same direction).
    • Warm colors indicate negative correlation (assets moving in opposite directions).
  • Example correlations:
    • Gold (XAUUSD) and Silver (XAGUSD) show positive correlation, both in a downtrend on a 15-minute timeframe.
    • Litecoin shows about -30% correlation with Gold, meaning when Gold drops, Litecoin tends to rise.

Settings and Customization

  • Correlation Period: Number of historical candles used for calculation
    • Higher value = smoother but slower response
    • Lower value = more sensitive but noisier
  • Market type selection: Forex, Stocks, Crypto, Custom
  • Option to enable/disable trading sessions display
  • Market mode toggle: Forex or Stocks
  • Reference currency/symbol can be changed manually; defaults to the chart’s current symbol
  • Up to 20 trading symbols can be customized and monitored within the heatmap
  • Option to show or hide input values in the status line

Use Cases
