Trading Value RSI (NQ Tuned)The Trading Value RSI (NQ Tuned) is an indicator that applies the RSI calculation to trading value, defined as volume × close, rather than just price. It is specifically tuned for Nasdaq 100 futures (NQ), with a default RSI length of 24, overbought level at 75, and oversold level at 25 to filter out false signals from high volatility. The indicator visually colors the RSI line based on overbought (red), oversold (green), or neutral (blue) conditions. A horizontal midline at 50 helps identify potential trend direction changes or confirm ongoing momentum. This tool allows traders to monitor capital flow intensity, giving insight into when strong buying or selling pressure may drive short-term market moves.

TRV & nTRV - Trimmed Range VolatilityGrid bots require stable volatility measurement - ATR becomes misleading when gaps and sudden spikes distort the average. TRV (Trimmed Range Volatility) is an advanced version of ATR: it filters outliers at the extremes (highest and lowest ranges) and remains unaffected by gaps. This provides real-time, accurate volatility measurement for grid bot setup.Grid bots require stable volatility measurement - ATR becomes misleading when gaps and sudden spikes distort the average. TRV (Trimmed Range Volatility) is an advanced version of ATR: it filters outliers at the extremes (highest and lowest ranges) and remains unaffected by gaps. This provides real-time, accurate volatility measurement for grid bot setup.
Why We Developed TRV?
When a gap or sudden spike occurs in the morning, this extreme movement affects standard ATR calculations for an extended period. Even if the price moves sideways for the rest of the day, ATR remains elevated. This causes grid bots to operate with unnecessarily wide spacing and execute fewer trades.
TRV Advantages:
✅ Unaffected by Gaps: Opening gaps don't distort the calculation
✅ Extreme Point Elimination: Filters the largest and smallest outlier candles
✅ Real-Time Accuracy: Shows current market volatility
✅ Grid Bot Optimization: Enables tighter and more efficient grid spacing
✅ Comparison Capability: Compare different stocks and timeframes with nTRV
Grid Bot Usage:
The TRV value is used directly to calculate the number of grid lines:
(Resistance - Support) / TRV = Number of Grid Lines
Example:
Resistance: $110
Support: $90
TRV: $2
Grid Count: (110-90)/2 = 10 grid lines
Features:
Two Filtering Modes: Manual (enter number) or Percentage-Based (automatic ratio)
Four Indicators in One: nTRV, TRV, ATR, and nATR all displayed on the same panel
nTRV: Normalized value (percentage-based, for stock comparison)
TRV: Absolute value (currency-based, for grid calculation)
ATR & nATR Included: Standard ATR and nATR for direct comparison with TRV
Comprehensive Analysis: Compare filtered (TRV) vs unfiltered (ATR) volatility side-by-side
Default: 10% top, 10% bottom outlier elimination
Conclusion:
TRV is an advanced version of ATR specifically designed for grid bot traders. By filtering outlier movements, it provides more stable and reliable volatility measurement. The indicator includes both TRV (filtered) and ATR (unfiltered) on the same chart, giving traders a comprehensive view to make informed decisions. This dual-display approach enables more efficient grid strategies and increased trading frequency.
Ribbon Cross Strategy This strategy uses a simple moving-average ribbon crossover system with a customizable entry filter. You can choose whether trades trigger near the fast or slow average, allowing flexibility in capturing early or confirmed trend moves.
It’s best suited for index trading on intraday timeframes , helping identify short-term trend reversals and continuations with clear visual cues and backtestable logic.
Volume-Gated Trend Ribbon [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Volume-Gated Trend Ribbon employs a selective price-updating mechanism that filters market noise through volume validation, creating a trend-following system that responds exclusively to significant price movements. The indicator gates price updates to moving average calculations based on volume threshold crossovers, ensuring that only bars with significant participation influence the trend direction. By interpolating between fast and slow moving averages to create a multi-layered visual ribbon, the indicator provides traders and investors with an adaptive trend identification framework that distinguishes between volume-backed directional shifts and low-conviction price fluctuations across multiple timeframes and asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator first establishes a dynamic baseline by calculating the simple moving average of volume over a configurable lookback period, then applies a user-defined multiplier to determine the significance threshold:
avgVol = ta.sma(volume, volPeriod)
highVol = volume >= avgVol * volMult
The gated price mechanism employs conditional updating where the close price is only captured and stored when volume exceeds the threshold. During low-volume periods, the indicator maintains the last qualified price level rather than tracking every minor fluctuation:
var float gatedClose = close
if highVol
gatedClose := close
Dual moving averages are calculated using the gated price input, with the indicator supporting various MA types. The fast and slow periods create the outer boundaries of the trend ribbon:
fastMA = volMA(gatedClose, close, fastPeriod)
slowMA = volMA(gatedClose, close, slowPeriod)
Ribbon interpolation creates intermediate layers by blending the fast and slow moving averages using weighted combinations, establishing a gradient effect that visually represents trend strength and momentum distribution:
midFastMA = fastMA * 0.67 + slowMA * 0.33
midSlowMA = fastMA * 0.33 + slowMA * 0.67
Trend state determination compares the fast MA against the slow MA, establishing bullish regimes when the faster average trades above the slower average and bearish regimes during the inverse relationship. Signal generation triggers on state transitions, producing alerts when the directional bias shifts:
bullish = fastMA > slowMA
longSignal = trendState == 1 and trendState != 1
shortSignal = trendState == -1 and trendState != -1
The visualization architecture constructs a three-tiered opacity gradient where the ribbon's core (between mid-slow and slow MAs) displays the highest opacity, the inner layer (between mid-fast and mid-slow) shows medium opacity, and the outer layer (between fast and mid-fast) presents the lightest fill, creating depth perception that emphasizes the trend center while acknowledging edge uncertainty.
🟢 How to Use This Indicator
▶ Long and Short Signals: The indicator generates long/buy signals when the trend state transitions to bullish (fast MA crosses above slow MA) and short/sell signals when transitioning to bearish (fast MA crosses below slow MA). Because these crossovers only reflect volume-validated price movements, they represent significant level of participation rather than random noise, providing higher-conviction entry signals that filter out false breakouts occurring on thin volume.
▶ Ribbon Width Dynamics: The spacing between the fast and slow moving averages creates the ribbon width, which serves as a visual proxy for trend strength and volatility. Expanding ribbons indicate accelerating directional movement with increasing separation between short-term and long-term momentum, suggesting robust trend development. Conversely, contracting ribbons signal momentum deceleration, potential trend exhaustion, or impending consolidation as the fast MA converges toward the slow MA.
▶ Preconfigured Presets: Three optimized parameter sets accommodate different trading styles and market conditions. Default provides balanced trend identification suitable for swing trading on daily timeframes with moderate volume filtering and responsiveness. Fast Response delivers aggressive signal generation optimized for intraday scalping on 1-15 minute charts, using lower volume thresholds and shorter moving average periods to capture rapid momentum shifts. Smooth Trend offers conservative trend confirmation ideal for position trading on 4-hour to weekly charts, employing stricter volume requirements and extended periods to filter noise and identify only the most robust directional moves.
▶ Built-in Alerts: Three alert conditions enable automated monitoring: Bullish Trend Signal triggers when the fast MA crosses above the slow MA confirming uptrend initiation, Bearish Trend Signal activates when the fast MA crosses below the slow MA confirming downtrend initiation, and Trend Change alerts on any directional transition regardless of direction. These notifications allow you to respond to volume-validated regime shifts without continuous chart monitoring.
▶ Color Customization: Six visual themes (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Ember, Neon, plus Custom) accommodate different chart backgrounds and display preferences, ensuring optimal contrast and visual clarity across trading environments. The adjustable fill opacity control (0-100%) allows fine-tuning of ribbon prominence, with lower opacity values create subtle background context while higher values produce bold trend emphasis. Optional bar coloring extends the trend indication directly to the price bars, providing immediate directional reference without requiring visual cross-reference to the ribbon itself.
UK100 London Judas & IFVG SetupUK100 London Judas & IFVG Setup
Overview This indicator is a specialized trading tool designed to automate the ICT Judas Swing strategy specifically for the UK100 (FTSE 100) index during the London Market Open. It combines institutional time-based logic with price action confirmation using Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVG) to identify high-probability reversal setups.
How It Works The strategy is based on the concept that the initial move after the London Open is often a "fake-out" (manipulation) designed to trap retail traders and engineer liquidity before the true trend of the day begins.
Session & Opening Price:
The script marks the London Open price (default 09:00 Warsaw / 08:00 London time) with a dashed line.
This serves as the "line in the sand." Prices moving away from this line initially are monitored for manipulation.
Judas Swing (Liquidity Sweep):
If price moves BELOW the open, it is hunting Sell-Side Liquidity (trapping sellers).
If price moves ABOVE the open, it is hunting Buy-Side Liquidity (trapping buyers).
The Entry Trigger: Inversion FVG (IFVG):
The indicator scans for Fair Value Gaps (FVG) created during the manipulation phase.
BUY Signal: The price manipulates lower, creates a Bearish FVG (Red Box), but then aggressively reverses and closes ABOVE that gap. The gap is now "Inverted" (turns Green), acting as support.
SELL Signal: The price manipulates higher, creates a Bullish FVG (Green Box), but then aggressively reverses and closes BELOW that gap. The gap is now "Inverted" (turns Orange), acting as resistance.
Key Features
Automated Pattern Recognition: No need to manually draw gaps. The script detects valid FVG inversions that align with the Judas Swing logic.
Built-in Risk Calculator: The signal labels display the exact Lot Size you should use based on your account balance and risk percentage (default 0.5%). It calculates this dynamically based on the Stop Loss distance.
Institutional Targets: The indicator fetches H1 Fractals (Liquidity) from the 1-hour timeframe and plots them on your 1-minute chart as blue lines. These are your primary Take Profit (TP) levels.
Stop Loss Visualization: Automatically suggests a Stop Loss placement behind the swing high/low of the reversal structure.
How to Use
Timeframe: Set your chart to 1 Minute (1m).
Asset: UK100 (FTSE 100).
Wait: Allow the London session to open. Watch for price to move away from the opening line.
Execute: When a BUY or SELL label appears:
Enter the trade using the Lot Size shown on the label.
Set your Stop Loss at the price shown on the label.
Target the blue H1 Liquidity lines for profit taking.
Settings
Timezone: Set this to your chart/exchange timezone (Default: Europe/Warsaw).
Account Balance: Input your current trading capital (e.g., 100,000) for accurate risk calculations.
Risk Per Trade %: The percentage of your account you are willing to lose if the Stop Loss is hit (Standard: 0.5% - 1.0%).
Contract Size: The value of 1 point movement (Check your broker's specifications. Usually 1 for CFDs).
Alerts You can set a single alert in TradingView to capture all signals. Select the indicator and choose "Any alert() function call". You will receive a notification with the direction (Buy/Sell), Entry Price, and Lot Size.

MNQ Quant Oscillator Lab v2.1MNQ Quant Oscillator Lab v2.1 — Clean Namespaces
Adaptive LinReg Oscillator + Auto Regime Switching + MTF Confirmation + MOEP Gate + Research Harness
MNQ Quant Oscillator Lab is a research-grade oscillator framework designed for MNQ/NQ (and other liquid futures/indices) on 1-minute and intraday timeframes. It combines a linear-regression-based detrended oscillator with quant-style normalization, adaptive parameterization, regime switching, multi-timeframe confirmation, and an optional MOEP (Minimum Optimal Entry Point) gate. The goal is to provide a customizable signal laboratory that is stable in real time, non-repainting by default, and suitable for systematic experimentation.
What this indicator does
1) Core oscillator (quant-normalized)
The indicator computes a linear regression (LinReg) detrended signal and expresses it as a z-scored oscillator for portability across volatility regimes and assets. You can switch the oscillator “transform family” via Oscillator type:
LinReg Residual / Residual Z: detrended residual (mean-reversion sensitive)
LinReg Slope Z: regression slope (trend-derivative sensitive)
LogReturn Z: log-return oscillator (momentum-style)
VolNorm Return Z: volatility-normalized returns (risk-scaled)
This yields a single oscillator that is comparable over time, not tied to raw point values.
2) Adaptive length (dynamic calibration)
When enabled, the regression length is automatically adapted using a volatility-regime proxy (ATR% z-scored → logistic mapping). High volatility typically shortens the effective lookback; low volatility allows longer lookbacks. This helps the oscillator remain responsive during expansions while staying stable in compressions.
Important: the adaptive logic is implemented with safe warmup behavior, so it will not throw NaN errors on early bars.
3) Adaptive thresholds (dynamic bands)
Instead of static overbought/oversold levels, the indicator can compute dynamic upper/lower bands from the oscillator’s own distribution (rolling mean + sigma). This creates thresholds that adjust automatically to regime changes.
4) Auto regime switching (Trend vs Mean Reversion)
With Auto regime switch enabled, the indicator selects whether to behave as a Trend system or a Mean Reversion system using an interpretable heuristic:
Trend regime when EMA-spread is strong relative to ATR and ATR is rising
Otherwise defaults to Mean Reversion
This prevents running mean-reversion logic in trend breakouts and reduces “mode mismatch.”
5) Multi-timeframe (MTF) confirmation (optional)
MTF confirmation can be enabled to require that the higher timeframe oscillator sign aligns with the direction of the signal. This is useful for reducing noise on MNQ 1m by requiring higher-timeframe structure agreement (e.g., 5m or 15m).
6) MOEP Gate (optional “institutional” filter)
The MOEP gate is a confluence score filter intended to reduce low-quality signals. It aggregates multiple components into a 0–100 score:
BB/KC squeeze condition
Expansion proxy
Trend proxy
Momentum proxy (RSI-based)
Volume catalyst (volume z-score)
Structure break (highest/lowest break)
You can set:
Score threshold (minimum score required)
Minimum components required (forces diversity of evidence)
When enabled, a signal must satisfy both oscillator logic and MOEP confluence conditions.
7) Research harness (NON-CAUSAL, OFF by default)
A built-in research mode evaluates signals using future bars to compute basic forward excursion statistics:
MFE (max favorable excursion)
MAE (max adverse excursion)
Simple win-rate proxy based on MFE vs MAE
This feature is strictly for offline analysis and tuning. It is disabled by default and should not be considered “live-safe” because it uses future information for evaluation.
Signals and interpretation
Mean Reversion regime
Long: oscillator is below the lower band and turns back upward across it
Short: oscillator is above the upper band and turns back downward across it
Trend regime
Long: oscillator crosses above zero (optionally requires structure break confirmation)
Short: oscillator crosses below zero (optionally requires structure break confirmation)
Hybrid
When Hybrid is selected (manual mode), the indicator allows both trend and mean-reversion triggers, but still respects the filters and gates you enable.
Recommended starting configuration (MNQ 1m)
If you want stable, high-quality signals first, then expand into research:
Use RTH only: ON
Auto regime switch: ON
Adaptive length: ON
Adaptive bands: ON
MTF confirmation: OFF initially (turn ON later with 5m)
MOEP Gate: OFF initially (turn ON after you confirm base behavior)
Research harness: OFF (only enable for tuning studies)
Practical notes / transparency
The indicator is designed to be stable on live bars (optional confirmed-bar behavior reduces flicker).
No repainting logic is used for signals.
Any “performance” numbers shown under Research harness are not tradable metrics; they are forward-looking evaluation outputs intended strictly for experimentation.

Auto Trend [theUltimator5]The Auto Trend indicator was designed to be a unique pattern detection indicator without the use of standard pivot point logic or high/low lines. It is a study in pattern detection by using iterative best-fit logic.
The indicator automatically identifies and draws trend channels by analyzing price action across configurable lookback periods. It finds optimal high and low trendlines that contain price movement, with a middle line marking the trend's center.
Key Features:
Automatic Pattern Detection - Intelligently searches for the best lookback period where price stays within the channel boundaries
Dual Pattern Modes - Choose between Short (20-66 bars) for quick patterns or Long (50-500 bars) for extended trends. Note - the long pattern is fully configurable and can be set anywhere up to 5000 bars.
Smart Caching - Optimized performance that only recalculates when necessary
Customizable Starting Point - Click directly on the chart to set where the trend channel begins
Flexible Lookback Range - Set minimum and maximum lookback periods to match your trading style
Visual Debugging - Optional label displays the active lookback period and violation count
How It Works:
The indicator divides the lookback period into thirds, finds the highest and lowest closes in the first and last thirds, then draws trendlines connecting these points. It can automatically search through different lookback periods to find the one with the fewest price violations (closes outside the channel).
Settings:
Use Auto Lookback - Enable automatic optimal lookback detection
Pattern Length - Short (faster, 1-bar increments) or Long (broader, 5-bar increments)
Min/Max Lookback - Define the search range for the Long pattern
Manual Lookback - Override auto-detection with a fixed period
Custom Colors - Personalize the high, low, and middle line colors
Starting Point - Select where the trend analysis begins
Use Cases:
Identify dominant trend channels across different timeframes
Spot potential support and resistance levels
Determine trend strength and consistency
Time entries and exits based on channel position
The indicator supports up to 5000 bars of historical data for comprehensive trend analysis.

Round Strike Price, Levels Options Series➤ Strike Price Range Mode:
➤ Exact Strike Price Mode:
⭐ Overview and How It Works
Round Strike Price or Levels is a precision-focused visual tool designed for options and index traders.
It dynamically plots round strike levels around the current price and presents them either as:
⠀ — Exact strike prices, or
⠀ — Strike price ranges, where each zone represents the midpoint between two adjacent strikes.
The indicator continuously recalculates the base strike using the current price and aligns all surrounding levels using a fixed step size.
All lines and labels are updated only on the last bar for optimal performance and stability.
This makes StrikePrice ideal for:
🔹 Identifying key option strikes.
🔹 Visualizing price acceptance zones.
🔹 Understanding strike-to-strike movement during intraday trading.
⭐ Key Features and Functionality
Strike Price Range:
⠀ — Treats each pair of strike lines as a price zone.
⠀ — Labels are plotted at the midpoint between two lines.
⠀ — Last label is intentionally hidden (no upper range exists)
Exact Strike Price:
⠀ — Labels are plotted directly on each strike line.
⠀ — Useful for precise strike-based analysis.
Dynamic Base Calculation:
⠀ — Automatically snaps price to the nearest round strike.
⠀ — Re-centers the entire grid as price moves.
⠀ — No manual adjustment required.
Efficient Object Management:
⠀ — Uses persistent arrays for lines and labels.
⠀ — Objects are reused instead of recreated.
⠀ — Prevents flickering and avoids TradingView object limits.
🎨 Visualizations and User Experience
Clean horizontal strike grid with configurable:
⠀ — Line width, Line color, Line style (Solid / Dashed / Dotted), Extension direction (Left / Right / Both / None).
Labels are:
⠀ — Positioned to the right of price, Size-adjustable, Fully customizable in text color and background color.
Designed to stay visually clear even on:
⠀ — Fast-moving intraday charts, Options-focused layouts, Multi-indicator setups.
Tip: Increase Right Bars Margin in chart settings to give labels proper spacing.
⭐ Settings and Customization
🔹 Strike Settings:
⠀ — Step (points): Distance between adjacent strike levels (e.g., 50, 100)
⠀ — Levels per side: Number of strike levels plotted above and below the base.
⠀ — Strike Mode: Strike Price Range, Exact Strike Price.
🔹 Line Settings:
⠀ — Line width, Line color, Line style (Solid / Dashed / Dotted), Line extension direction.
🔹 Label Settings:
⠀ — Show / hide labels, Label distance (bars to the right), Label size, Label text color, Label background color.
All label properties are updated dynamically, allowing real-time UI tuning without reloading the script.
⭐ Uniqueness of the Concept:
Unlike generic round-number indicators, StrikePrice:
⠀ — Understands option-style strike structure.
⠀ — Separates range-based thinking from exact price levels.
⠀ — Uses midpoint logic to visualize strike-to-strike movement.
⠀ — Maintains strict performance discipline by updating only when necessary.
This makes it especially useful for:
⠀ • NIFTY / BANKNIFTY options.
⠀ • Index and futures traders.
⠀ • Intraday strike rotation analysis.
⠀ • Premium decay and range-bound setups.
🚀 Conclusion:
StrikePrice is a focused, professional-grade indicator for traders who think in strikes, ranges, and levels rather than arbitrary prices.
It offers:
⠀ • Clear structure
⠀ • Accurate strike alignment
⠀ • Clean visuals
⠀ • Zero repainting logic
RCI4linesRCI4lines plots four Rank Correlation Index (RCI) lines in a single panel to help you read momentum and trend conditions at a glance.
It shows two short-term RCIs (default: 7 and 9), a middle-term RCI (26), and a long-term RCI (52).
The script also draws shaded threshold zones between +80 to +95 and -80 to -95, making it easier to spot potential overbought / oversold areas and compare short-term moves with the bigger trend.
Useful for scalping to day trading, and for checking whether short-term momentum is aligned with mid/long-term direction.
CHOP-O-METER - Multi-Factor Choppiness DetectorA composite indicator that quantifies market choppiness using four independent measurements, helping you identify when to trade trends vs. when to sit out or fade moves.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW IT WORKS
The Chop-O-Meter combines four normalized components (each scaled 0-100) into a single weighted score:
1. Price Efficiency (Kaufman-style)
Measures how efficiently price moved from point A to B. If price travels far but nets little distance, efficiency is low = high chop.
2. Direction Change Frequency
Counts how often price direction flips within the lookback period. More flips = more chop.
3. Mean Reversion Intensity
Tracks how often price crosses its moving average. Frequent crosses indicate a ranging, choppy market.
4. ATR Expansion Ratio
Compares the sum of individual bar ranges to the total period range. High ratio means lots of movement within a tight overall range = chop.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
READING THE INDICATOR
Above 65 (Red Zone): High chop — avoid trend-following, consider mean-reversion or staying flat
Below 35 (Green Zone): Trending — momentum strategies more likely to succeed
35-65 (Orange): Transitional/uncertain regime
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SIGNALS
🔻 Green triangle (top): Chop breaking down — potential trend starting
🔺 Red triangle (bottom): Trend exhausting — chop may be returning
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SETTINGS
Lookback Period: Number of bars to analyze (default 20)
Component Weights: Adjust influence of each factor
Thresholds: Customize high/low chop boundaries
Show Components: Toggle individual factor plots for debugging
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
USE CASES
Filter out trend trades when chop score is high
Reduce position size in choppy regimes
Switch between mean-reversion and momentum strategies
Identify regime transitions early

Adaptive 2-Pole Trend Bands [supfabio]Adaptive 2-Pole Trend Bands is a volatility-aware trend filtering indicator designed to identify the dominant market direction while providing dynamic reference zones around price.
Instead of relying on traditional moving averages, this indicator uses a two-pole digital filter to smooth price action while maintaining responsiveness. Around this central trend line, a multi-band structure based on ATR is applied to help traders evaluate pullbacks, extensions, and potential exhaustion areas within a trend.
Core Concept
The indicator is built around three key ideas:
Digital Trend Filtering
Volatility-Adjusted Bands
Trend Persistence Measurement
These components work together to separate meaningful price movement from noise and to provide context for how far price has moved relative to recent volatility.
Two-Pole Trend Filter
At its core, the indicator uses a two-pole smoothing filter, which produces a cleaner trend curve than common moving averages.
Compared to standard averages, this approach:
Reduces market noise
Produces smoother transitions
Responds faster to genuine trend changes
Avoids excessive lag in trending markets
The result is a trend line that represents the structural direction of price, rather than short-term fluctuations.
Adaptive Multi-Band System
Around the central trend filter, the indicator plots four independent volatility-based bands, each derived from the Average True Range (ATR).
Each band represents a different degree of price extension:
Band 1: Shallow pullbacks and minor reactions
Band 2: Moderate extensions within a trend
Band 3: Strong directional moves
Band 4: Extreme extensions relative to recent volatility
Because the bands are ATR-based, they automatically adapt to changing market conditions, expanding during high volatility and contracting during calmer periods.
This makes the indicator suitable for both slow and fast markets without manual recalibration.
Trend State Detection
The color of the central filter dynamically reflects trend persistence, not just direction:
Sustained upward movement highlights bullish conditions
Sustained downward movement highlights bearish conditions
Transitional phases are visually distinct, helping identify regime changes
This logic is based on how long price has maintained directional behavior, reducing sensitivity to isolated candles or short-lived spikes.
Practical Applications
This indicator can be used as:
A trend filter for discretionary or systematic strategies
A context tool to evaluate pullbacks versus overextension
A risk reference to avoid entries in extreme price zones
A confirmation layer when combined with price action or momentum tools
It performs consistently across different asset classes, including futures, cryptocurrencies, forex, indices, and equities.
Configuration
Key parameters such as filter length, damping factor, and band multipliers are fully configurable, allowing traders to adapt the indicator to different timeframes and trading styles.
Important Notes
This indicator does not predict future price movement
It does not generate guaranteed buy or sell signals
Best results are achieved when used in combination with sound risk management and additional confirmation tools
Past behavior does not imply future performance

Ichimoku + VWAP + OBV + ATR Full System (NQ Daytrade)Extended Indicator Description
Ichimoku + VWAP + OBV + ATR Full System is a rule-based intraday trading indicator designed specifically for NQ day trading, focusing on trend alignment, participation confirmation, and volatility-aware execution.
This indicator does not rely on a single signal or crossover. Instead, it integrates multiple market dimensions into one structured framework to help traders identify high-probability trend continuation scenarios while avoiding low-quality, range-bound conditions.
System Philosophy
The core idea of this system is simple:
trade only when trend, price location, volume, and volatility are aligned.
Each component plays a specific role and is not meant to be used in isolation. The indicator works best when all conditions reinforce the same directional bias.
Component Breakdown
Ichimoku Cloud
Used to define the primary market structure and directional bias. The system favors trades only when price action aligns clearly above or below the cloud, helping filter out indecisive or transitional phases.
VWAP
Acts as a session-based equilibrium reference. Price position and distance relative to VWAP are used to confirm whether the market is trending with intent rather than reverting to the mean.
OBV (On-Balance Volume)
Provides participation and flow confirmation. OBV helps validate whether price movement is supported by volume, reducing the likelihood of false breakouts or weak trend signals.
ATR (Average True Range)
Used as a volatility filter and risk-awareness tool. ATR conditions help the system avoid low-volatility environments and support more realistic expectations for intraday movement.
Trade Logic Overview
The system is designed around trend-following pullbacks, not prediction or counter-trend trading.
When trend structure is established and confirmed by VWAP positioning and OBV behavior, pullback zones within the trend become areas of interest. ATR conditions ensure that trades are taken only when sufficient movement potential exists.
Rather than generating frequent signals, the system prioritizes selectivity and clarity, making it suitable for disciplined day traders who value context over quantity.
Intended Use
This indicator is built for:
NQ intraday and day trading
Trend continuation and pullback strategies
Traders who prefer structured, confirmation-based systems
Lower to mid intraday timeframes such as 3-minute, 5-minute, and 15-minute charts
Important Notes

Rectangle Breakout Patterns📊 Rectangle Breakout Pattern Detector (Support & Resistance)
This indicator is a dynamic tool designed to automatically identify and visualize Rectangle Continuation Patterns and Trading Ranges based on pure price action. It focuses on finding horizontal areas of long-term support and resistance where price is consolidating before an eventual breakout.
💡 What It Does
The core function of this indicator is to detect and plot the boundaries of significant consolidation areas on your chart. It follows a multi-step confirmation process:
Level Detection: It automatically identifies significant Pivot Highs and Lows.
Pattern Confirmation: It confirms Support and Resistance by counting the number of times price 'touches' a level (controlled by the Min Pivot Touches setting).
Visualization: Once confirmed, it draws a Box around the consolidation area. This box automatically extends to the right as long as the price remains contained, showing the active trading range.
This provides an objective, code-driven approach to a classic chart pattern often relied upon by technical analysts.

Ultimate Squeeze & BreakoutTitle: Ultimate Squeeze & Breakout
Description: This indicator is a volatility analysis tool designed to identify periods of market compression ("The Squeeze") and validate subsequent breakouts using momentum logic. It builds upon the classic relation between Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels but adds a directional filter to reduce false signals.
The Problem It Solves: Standard squeeze indicators often signal a breakout the moment price exits the bands, even if the underlying trend is weak or flat. This can lead to entering "wicks" or fakeouts. This script solves this by requiring the Basis Line Slope to align with the breakout direction before generating a signal.
How It Works:
1. Compression (The Setup) The script monitors the relationship between Bollinger Bands (Standard Deviation) and Keltner Channels (ATR).
Red Cloud: When the Bollinger Bands contract completely inside the Keltner Channels, it indicates a critical drop in volatility. The market is coiling and storing energy.
2. The Momentum Filter (The Validation) Unlike basic squeeze indicators, a breakout is not signaled solely by price closing outside the bands.
Logic: The script calculates the slope of the 20-period Basis Line (Simple Moving Average).
Bullish Validation: Price > Upper Band AND Basis Line is sloping UP.
Bearish Validation: Price < Lower Band AND Basis Line is sloping DOWN.
Visual Guide:
🟥 Red Cloud: Squeeze ON. Volatility is compressed. Do not trade; wait for expansion.
🟣 Fuchsia Cloud: Bullish Breakout (Price released upward + Positive Momentum).
🔵 Blue Cloud: Bearish Breakout (Price released downward + Negative Momentum).
⬜ Gray/Green Cloud: Standard Trending phase (Volatility is normal).
Features:
Precision Inputs: Multipliers for Standard Deviation and ATR can be adjusted in 0.01 increments for fine-tuning sensitivity.
Visual Toggles: Option to color the neutral trending cloud Green or Gray based on preference.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for "Squeeze Started" and validated "Bullish/Bearish Breakouts."
Credits: Core mechanics based on the TTM Squeeze concept popularized by John Carter. Momentum filtering logic added for enhanced signal reliability.

Momentum Gamma StraddleExact definition of what that script does
1) Purpose
The script is a decision aid for intraday expiry-day ATM straddle trades. It detects intraday structure breakouts and signals candidate long straddle entries for Nifty or Sensex using price structure, volume, RSI momentum, and a user-supplied combined ATM premium value (CE + PE). It draws support/resistance, shows an info box, and raises alerts.
2) Inputs the user can change
Trading time window: startHour, startMin, endHour, endMin.
Structure lookback: res_lookback (how many candles to use to compute resistance/support).
Minimum candle body as fraction of candle range: min_body_pct.
Volume multiplier threshold: vol_mult (breakout candle volume must exceed vol_mult * sma5).
RSI length and thresholds: rsi_len, rsi_bull_thresh, rsi_bear_thresh.
Combined premium source: choose Manual or Symbol. If Manual, set manual_combined. If Symbol, provide a TradingView symbol that returns CE+PE combined ATM premium.
Combined premium acceptable band: min_combined_ok and max_combined_ok.
Profit target percent and SL percent (target_pct and sl_pct).
Misc pattern heuristics: min_res_hits (min tests of resistance inside lookback), low_slope_min (used to detect rising lows).
Micro-confirmation toggle, micro timeframe, nonrepaint option, show_entry_label toggle (in the later fixed versions some of these were added, but the earlier fixed script had basic combined_symbol options and a lookahead fallback).
3) Data calculated on each bar
Safety check hasEnough: true when bar_index >= res_lookback.
resistance: the highest high over res_lookback bars.
support: the lowest low over res_lookback bars.
res_hits: count of bars within lookback whose high is within a tolerance of resistance. Tolerance is 10 percent of the range between resistance and support.
low_slope: simple slope of lows over res_lookback bars.
body_pct: the candle body as a fraction of its high-low range. strong_body true when body_pct >= min_body_pct.
bull_breakout: true if hasEnough and current close > resistance and strong_body and res_hits >= min_res_hits.
bear_breakout: true if hasEnough and current close < support and strong_body and res_hits >= min_res_hits.
vol_sma5 and vol_ok: vol_ok true when current volume > vol_mult * vol_sma5.
rsi and rsi checks: rsi_bull_ok true if rsi >= rsi_bull_thresh; rsi_bear_ok true if rsi <= rsi_bear_thresh.
combined_premium: either the manual_combined input or the value read from combined_symbol via request.security. The script attempted a fallback to manual when the symbol was not valid.
combined_ok: true if combined_premium lies between min_combined_ok and max_combined_ok.
final signals: bull_signal when in_time_window and bull_breakout and vol_ok and rsi_bull_ok and combined_ok. bear_signal similar for bearish breakout.
4) Visual output and alerts
Plots resistance and support lines on the chart.
Plots a label shape "STRADDLE BUY" below the bar for bull_signal and above the bar for bear_signal.
Creates an info label (on last bar) that shows TimeOK, VolOK and vol ratio, RSI, Combined premium and whether it is OK, ResHits and LowSlope.
Sets two alertcondition events: "Bull Straddle BUY" and "Bear Straddle BUY" with a short candidate message. The alerts fire when the corresponding signal is true.
5) Execution assumptions you must follow manually
The script does not place any orders or compute option strike-level prices or greeks. It only flags candidate entry bars.
When combined_source is Manual you must type CE+PE yourself. The indicator will only accept the manual number and treat it as the combined premium.
When combined_source is Symbol the script uses request.security to read that symbol. For historical bars the indicator may repaint depending on lookahead settings. The earlier fixed script attempted to use request.security inside a conditional which leads to runtime or compile errors. You experienced that exact error.
6) Known implementation caveats and bugs you encountered
Pine typing issue with low_slope. The earlier version set low_slope = na without explicit type. That triggers the Pine error: "Value with NA type cannot be assigned to a variable that was defined without type keyword". This required changing to float low_slope = na.
The earlier version attempted to call request.security() inside an if block or conditional. Pine prohibits request.security in conditional blocks unless allowed patterns are followed. That produced the error you saw: "Cannot use request.* call within loops or conditional structures" or similar. The correct pattern is to call request.security at top-level and decide later which value to use.
If combined_symbol is invalid or not available on your TradingView subscription, request.security can return na and the script must fall back to manual value. The earlier fixed script attempted fallback but compiled errors prevented reliable behavior.
The earlier script did not include micro-confirmation or advanced nonrepaint controls. Those were added in later versions. Because of that, the earlier script may have given signals that appear to repaint on historical bars or may have thrown errors when using combined_symbol.
7) Decision logic summary (exact)
Only operate if current chart time is inside user set time window.
Only consider trade candidates when enough history exists for res_lookback.
Identify a resistance level as the highest high in the lookback. Count how many times that resistance was tested. Ensure the breakout candle has a strong body and volume spike. Ensure RSI is aligned with breakout direction.
Require combined ATM premium to be inside a user preferred band. If combined_symbol is used the script tries to read that value and use it; otherwise it uses manual_combined input.
If all the above conditions are true on a confirmed bar, the script plots a STRADDLE BUY label and triggers an alertcondition.
8) What the script does not do
It does not calculate CE and PE prices by strike. It only consumes or accepts combined premium number.
It does not compute greeks, IV, or OI. OI and IV checks must be done manually.
It does not manage positions. No SL management or automatic exits are executed by the script.
It does not simulate fills or account for bid/ask spreads or slippage.
It cannot detect off-exchange block trades or read exchange-level auction states beyond raw volume bars.
It may repaint historical labels if the combined_symbol was read with lookahead_on or the script used request.security in a way that repainted. The corrected final version uses nonrepaint options.
9) Manual checks you must always perform even when the script signals BUY
Confirm the live combined ATM premium and the bid/ask for CE and PE.
Check ATM IV and recent IV movement for a potential IV crush risk.
Check option OI distribution and recent OI changes for strike pinning or large player exposure.
Confirm CE and PE liquidity and depth. Wide spreads make fills unrealistic.
Confirm there is no scheduled news or auction within the next few minutes.
Confirm margin and position sizing fits your risk plan.
10) Quick testing checklist you can run now
Add the script to a 5-minute chart with combined_source = Manual.
Enter manual_combined equal to the real CE+PE at the moment you test.
Set startHour and endHour so the in_time_window is true for current time.
Look for STRADDLE BUY label on confirmed bars. Inspect the info box to see why it did or did not signal.
If you set combined_source = Symbol, verify the symbol exists and that TradingView returns values for it. If you previously saw the request.security error, that was caused by placing the request inside a conditional. The correct behavior is to call request.security unconditionally at top-level like in the final fixed version.
