Session-Anchored Volatility Expansion Bands
reddddicator is a session-aware volatility expansion framework designed to model next-session price dispersion using a multi-day realized range aggregation with custom normalization.
The indicator does not rely on ATR, ADR, standard deviation bands, or moving-average–based volatility estimators. Instead, it derives projected price boundaries from completed daily range realizations , selectively anchored to the most recent fully confirmed daily close based on session state.
Conceptual Methodology (High-Level)
The model samples a fixed window of completed daily high-low ranges.
These ranges are aggregated and normalized using a non-standard divisor , intentionally reducing sensitivity to single-day volatility spikes.
The resulting expansion value is anchored to the last confirmed daily settlement , dynamically determined based on whether the current trading session is open or closed.
Symmetric forward-projected upper and lower volatility bands are plotted and extended into the next session.
This approach is designed to reflect realized volatility expansion tendencies , rather than implied volatility or trend continuation.
Analytical Purpose
The projected bands function as statistical excursion boundaries, intended to identify areas where price extension risk asymmetrically increases.
The indicator is particularly suited for:
Short-duration options frameworks (e.g., TVC:SPX 0DTE credit spreads)
Mean-reversion and volatility exhaustion studies
Contextual risk placement rather than directional forecasting
reddddicator does not generate trade signals and should be used as a volatility reference layer, in conjunction with the user’s own execution logic and risk controls.
Timeframe & Instrument Scope
Calculations are derived from daily market data
Display is optimized for intraday charting
Most effective on liquid index products (e.g., SP:SPX SPX), but adaptable to other instruments
This script does not reproduce ATR, ADR, Bollinger Bands, or any publicly available volatility indicator. While it uses daily range data as an input, the aggregation, normalization, and session-aware anchoring logic are custom implementations developed by the author and are not derived from open-source TradingView scripts or educational materials.
Disclaimer
This indicator is provided for educational and analytical purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice, trade recommendations, or investment guidance. Past behavior of volatility or price expansion does not guarantee future outcomes. Users are solely responsible for their trading decisions, position sizing, and risk management.
BTC RiskThe BTC Risk Metric is a normalized market-cycle indicator designed to quantify how risky Bitcoin is to buy or hold at any point in time relative to its own historical behaviour.
It measures how far price has deviated from its long-term trend by calculating the logarithmic distance between Bitcoin’s price and a long-duration moving average (a 377-day simple moving average), then scales that distance by time to account for Bitcoin’s exponential growth.
This raw value is tracked against its historical extremes and normalized into a 0–1 range, where values near zero correspond to deep, low-risk accumulation zones typically seen around major cycle bottoms, and values near one correspond to high-risk conditions historically associated with late-cycle tops. Rather than predicting price, the metric provides a relative, regime-aware framework for assessing risk across cycles, allowing different market phases to be compared on a consistent scale.
Monte Carlo Option Forecast [Lite]Turn your chart into a Quantitative Trading Terminal.
Forget linear predictions. The market is driven by probability. Montecarlo Option Forecast leverages 2,000+ Monte Carlo simulations to model future price paths, assess volatility, and calculate the "fair" mathematical value of options directly on your chart.
This tool doesn't just tell you where the price might go—it visualizes the probability distribution (The Fan) and the most likely deterministic path (The Neon Line) to help you find a mathematical edge.
🔥 Key Features
1. 🧠 Smart Simulation Engine
3 Calculation Modes:
Historical (Raw): For trending assets (uses past returns).
Stationary (Flat): For ranging markets (random walk).
Ensemble: A balanced 50/50 mix.
Neon Line: A dynamic forecast line that visualizes the projected path based on your settings.
2. 🧲 Magnet Mechanics (Mean Reversion)
Markets tend to return to the mean. Adjust the Magnet Strength to simulate trends decaying or prices pulling back to fair value over time.
3. 📊 Option Desk (ATM Edition)
An embedded terminal that calculates theoretical option values (Call/Put) based on your simulations.
MC vs. Black-Scholes: Compares your custom Monte Carlo valuation against standard models to find edge.
Kelly Criterion: Suggests position sizing based on probability.
Smart Markers: ⌖ (Spot Price) and ★ (Forecast Target).
Note: This Lite edition is optimized for At-The-Money (ATM) analysis. Deep OTM strikes and wide steps are available in the PRO version.
4. 🏆 The Judge (Backtester)
The script constantly "judges" itself by running backtests on past data. It displays honest accuracy stats (Win Rate, Error %, Drift) to help you calibrate the model.
BTC Trend Forecast (Trend-Follow + Reversal)This indicator should only be used on Bitcoin. Be careful if you use it for other coins. I suggest looking at the 1-hour candlestick chart.
Top / Bottom Indicator v69Built in TA uses multiple signals to predict tops and bottoms based on a high confidence score. Longer runs followed by retracements that signify a reversal are also indicated. Buy and sell signals are displayed and best to use "on candle close" to confirmation.

# Introduction
**Penny Stock Short Signal Pro (PSSP)** is a comprehensive Pine Script v6 indicator specifically engineered for identifying high-probability short-selling opportunities on low-priced, high-volatility stocks. Unlike generic indicators that apply broad technical analysis, PSSP is purpose-built for the unique characteristics of penny stock price action—where parabolic moves, retail FOMO, and violent reversals create predictable patterns for prepared traders.
## Key Features
- **7 Independent Detection Systems** working in concert to identify exhaustion points
- **Composite Signal Engine** that requires multiple confirmations before triggering
- **Real-Time Dashboard** displaying all signal states and market metrics
- **Automatic Risk Management** with dynamic stop-loss and profit target calculations
- **Customizable Sensitivity** for different trading styles (scalping vs. swing)
- **Built-in Alert System** for all major signal types
## Who Is This For?
- **Active Day Traders** looking to capitalize on intraday reversals
- **Short Sellers** who specialize in penny stocks and small caps
- **Momentum Traders** who want to identify when momentum is exhausting
- **Risk-Conscious Traders** who need clear entry/exit levels
---
# Why Short Penny Stocks?
## The Penny Stock Lifecycle
Penny stocks follow a remarkably predictable lifecycle that creates shorting opportunities:
```
PHASE 1: ACCUMULATION
└── Low volume, tight range
└── Smart money quietly building positions
PHASE 2: MARKUP / PROMOTION
└── News catalyst or promotional campaign
└── Volume increases, price begins rising
└── Early momentum traders enter
PHASE 3: DISTRIBUTION (YOUR OPPORTUNITY)
└── Parabolic move attracts retail FOMO buyers
└── Smart money selling into strength
└── Volume climax signals exhaustion
└── ⚠️ PSSP SIGNALS FIRE HERE ⚠️
PHASE 4: DECLINE
└── Support breaks, panic selling
└── Price returns toward origin
└── Short sellers profit
```
## Why Shorts Work on Penny Stocks
1. **No Fundamental Support**: Most penny stocks have no earnings, revenue, or assets to justify elevated prices
2. **Promotional Nature**: Many rallies are driven by promoters who will eventually stop
3. **Retail Exhaustion**: Retail buying power is finite—when it's exhausted, gravity takes over
4. **Float Dynamics**: Low float stocks move fast in both directions
5. **Technical Levels Matter**: VWAP, round numbers, and prior highs become self-fulfilling resistance
---
# The 7 Core Detection Systems
PSSP employs seven independent detection algorithms. Each identifies a specific type of exhaustion or reversal signal. When multiple systems fire simultaneously, the probability of a successful short dramatically increases.
---
## 1. PARABOLIC EXHAUSTION DETECTOR
### What It Detects
Identifies when price has moved too far, too fast and is likely to reverse. This system looks for the classic "blow-off top" pattern common in penny stock runners.
### Technical Logic
```
Parabolic Signal = TRUE when:
├── Consecutive green candles ≥ threshold (default: 3)
├── AND price extension from VWAP ≥ threshold ATRs (default: 1.5)
└── OR shooting star / upper wick rejection pattern forms
```
### Visual Representation
```
╱╲ ← Shooting star / upper wick
╱ ╲ (Parabolic exhaustion)
╱
╱
╱
══════════════ VWAP
╱
╱
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
Penny stocks are notorious for parabolic moves driven by retail FOMO. When everyone who wants to buy has bought, there's no one left to push prices higher. The shooting star pattern shows that sellers are already stepping in at higher prices.
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Lookback Period | 10 | 3-30 | Bars to analyze for pattern |
| Extension Threshold | 1.5 ATR | 0.5-5.0 | How far above VWAP is "parabolic" |
| Consecutive Green Bars | 3 | 2-10 | Minimum green bars for exhaustion |
---
## 2. VWAP REJECTION SYSTEM
### What It Detects
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is the single most important level for institutional traders. This system identifies when price tests above VWAP and gets rejected back below—a powerful short signal.
### Technical Logic
```
VWAP Rejection = TRUE when:
├── Candle high pierces above VWAP
├── AND candle closes below VWAP
├── AND candle is bearish (close < open)
└── AND rejection distance is within sensitivity threshold
```
### Visual Representation
```
High ──→ ╱╲
╱ ╲
VWAP ════════╱════╲═══════════
Close ←── Rejection
```
### Extended VWAP Signals
The system also tracks VWAP standard deviation bands. Rejection from the upper band (2 standard deviations above VWAP) is an even stronger signal.
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- Algorithms and institutions use VWAP as their benchmark
- Failed attempts to reclaim VWAP often lead to waterfall selling
- VWAP acts as a "magnet" that price tends to revert toward
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Rejection Sensitivity | 0.5 ATR | 0.1-2.0 | How close to VWAP for valid rejection |
| Show VWAP Line | True | - | Display VWAP on chart |
| Show VWAP Bands | True | - | Display standard deviation bands |
| Band Multiplier | 2.0 | 0.5-4.0 | Standard deviations for bands |
---
## 3. VOLUME CLIMAX DETECTOR
### What It Detects
Identifies "blow-off tops" where extreme volume accompanies a price spike. This often marks the exact top as it represents maximum retail participation—after which buying power is exhausted.
### Technical Logic
```
Volume Climax = TRUE when:
├── Current volume ≥ (Average volume × Climax Multiple)
├── AND one of:
│ ├── Selling into the high (upper wick > lower wick on green bar)
│ └── OR post-climax weakness (red bar following climax bar)
```
### Visual Representation
```

╱ ╲
╱ ╲
╱ ╲
╱
Volume:
▂▃▅▇██▇▅▃▂▁
↑
Volume Climax (3x+ average)
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- Retail traders pile in at the top, creating volume spikes
- Market makers and smart money use this liquidity to exit
- Once the volume spike passes, there's no fuel left for higher prices
- The "smart money selling into dumb money buying" creates the top
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Volume MA Length | 20 | 5-50 | Period for average volume calculation |
| Climax Volume Multiple | 3.0x | 1.5-10.0 | Multiple of average for "climax" |
| Show Volume Bars | True | - | Visual volume representation |
---
## 4. RSI DIVERGENCE ANALYZER
### What It Detects
Bearish divergence occurs when price makes higher highs but RSI (momentum) makes lower highs. This indicates that momentum is weakening even as price pushes higher—a warning of imminent reversal.
### Technical Logic
```
Bearish Divergence = TRUE when:
├── RSI is in overbought territory (> threshold)
├── AND RSI is declining (current < previous < prior)
└── Indicates momentum exhaustion before price catches up
```
### Visual Representation
```
Price: /\ /\
/ \ / \ ← Higher high
/ \/
/
/
RSI: /\
/ \ /\
/ \/ \ ← Lower high (DIVERGENCE)
/ \
════════════════════ Overbought (70)
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- Penny stocks often push to new highs on weaker and weaker momentum
- Divergence signals that fewer buyers are participating at each new high
- Eventually, the lack of buying pressure leads to collapse
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| RSI Length | 14 | 5-30 | Standard RSI calculation period |
| Overbought Level | 70 | 60-90 | RSI level considered overbought |
| Divergence Lookback | 14 | 5-30 | Bars to look back for swing highs |
---
## 5. KEY LEVEL REJECTION TRACKER
### What It Detects
Identifies rejections from significant price levels where shorts are likely to be concentrated: High of Day (HOD), premarket highs, and psychological levels (whole and half dollars).
### Technical Logic
```
Level Rejection = TRUE when:
├── Price touches key level (within 0.2% tolerance)
├── AND candle is bearish (close < open)
├── AND close is in lower portion of candle range
│
├── Key Levels Tracked:
│ ├── High of Day (HOD)
│ ├── Premarket High
│ └── Psychological levels ($1.00, $1.50, $2.00, etc.)
```
### Visual Representation
```
HOD ─────────────────────────────────
╱╲ ← Rejection
╱ ╲
╱ ╲
╱
─────────────────────────────────
PM High ─────────────────────────────
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- **HOD**: The high of day is where the most traders are trapped long. Failure to break HOD often triggers stop-loss cascades
- **Premarket High**: Represents overnight enthusiasm; failure to exceed often means the "news" is priced in
- **Psychological Levels**: Round numbers ($1, $2, $5) attract orders and act as natural resistance
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Track HOD Rejection | True | - | Monitor high of day |
| Track Premarket High | True | - | Monitor premarket resistance |
| Track Psychological Levels | True | - | Monitor round numbers |
---
## 6. FAILED BREAKOUT DETECTOR
### What It Detects
Identifies "bull traps" where price breaks above resistance but immediately fails and closes back below. This traps breakout buyers and often leads to accelerated selling.
### Technical Logic
```
Failed Breakout = TRUE when:
├── Price breaks above recent high (lookback period)
├── AND one of:
│ ├── Same bar closes below the breakout level
│ └── OR following bars show consecutive red candles
```
### Visual Representation
```
╱╲
╱ ╲ ← False breakout
Recent High ══╱════╲════════════════
╱ ╲
╱ ╲
╱ ╲ ← Trapped longs panic sell
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- Breakout traders enter on the break, providing exit liquidity for smart money
- When the breakout fails, these traders become trapped and must exit
- Their forced selling accelerates the decline
- Penny stocks have thin order books, making failed breakouts especially violent
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Breakout Lookback | 5 | 2-15 | Bars to define "recent high" |
| Confirmation Bars | 2 | 1-5 | Bars to confirm failure |
---
## 7. MOVING AVERAGE BREAKDOWN SYSTEM
### What It Detects
Monitors exponential moving averages (EMAs) for bearish crossovers and price rejections. EMA crosses often signal trend changes, while rejections from EMAs indicate resistance.
### Technical Logic
```
MA Breakdown = TRUE when:
├── Bearish EMA cross (fast crosses below slow)
└── OR EMA rejection (price tests EMA from below and fails)
```
### Visual Representation
```
╱╲ ← Rejection from EMA
╱ ╲
EMA 9 ═══════════╱════╲═══════════
╲
EMA 20 ═══════════════════╲════════
╲
Bearish cross ↓
```
### Why It Works on Penny Stocks
- EMAs smooth out the noise and show underlying trend direction
- When fast EMA crosses below slow EMA, it signals momentum shift
- Rejected attempts to reclaim EMAs show sellers are in control
### Key Settings
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| Fast EMA | 9 | 3-20 | Short-term trend |
| Slow EMA | 20 | 10-50 | Medium-term trend |
| Show EMAs | True | - | Display on chart |

# Risk Management
## Position Sizing Formula
```
Position Size = (Account Risk %) / (Stop Loss %)
Example:
- Account: $25,000
- Risk per trade: 1% = $250
- Entry: $2.00
- Stop: $2.20 (10% stop)
- Position Size: $250 / 10% = $2,500 worth
- Shares: $2,500 / $2.00 = 1,250 shares
```
## Risk Rules
### The 1% Rule
Never risk more than 1% of your account on any single trade. For a $25,000 account, max risk = $250.
### The 2x Stop Rule
If your stop gets hit twice on the same stock, stop trading it for the day. The pattern isn't working.
### The Daily Loss Limit
Set a maximum daily loss (e.g., 3% of account). Stop trading if hit.
### The Size-Down Rule
After a losing trade, reduce your next position size by 50%. Rebuild after a winner.
## Short-Specific Risks
### The Short Squeeze
- Penny stocks can squeeze violently
- ALWAYS use stops
- Never "hope" a position comes back
- Size appropriately for volatility
### The Hard-to-Borrow
- Check borrow availability before trading
- High borrow fees eat into profits
- Some stocks become HTB mid-trade
### The Halt Risk
- Penny stocks can halt on volatility
- Position size for worst-case halt against you
- Halts can open significantly higher

# Best Practices
## DO's
✅ **Wait for multiple signals** - Single signals have lower accuracy
✅ **Trade with the trend** - Short when daily trend is down
✅ **Use the dashboard** - Check signal count before entering
✅ **Respect stops** - The indicator calculates them for a reason
✅ **Size appropriately** - Penny stocks are volatile; position small
✅ **Trade liquid stocks** - Volume ≥ 500K daily average
✅ **Know the catalyst** - Understand why the stock is moving
✅ **Take partial profits** - Secure gains at T1
✅ **Journal your trades** - Track what works and what doesn't
✅ **Time your entries** - Best shorts often come 10:30-11:30 AM
## DON'Ts
❌ **Don't short strong stocks** - If it won't go down, don't force it
❌ **Don't fight the tape** - A stock going up can keep going up
❌ **Don't average up on losers** - Adding to losing shorts is dangerous
❌ **Don't ignore the dashboard** - It exists to help you
❌ **Don't overtrade** - Quality over quantity
❌ **Don't short into news** - Wait for the reaction first
❌ **Don't trade the first 5 minutes** - Too chaotic for reliable signals
❌ **Don't hold overnight** - Penny stock gaps can destroy accounts
❌ **Don't trade without stops** - Ever.
❌ **Don't trade on tilt** - After losses, take a break
## Optimal Trading Windows
| Time (ET) | Quality | Notes |
|-----------|---------|-------|
| 9:30-9:35 | ⭐ | Too volatile, avoid |
| 9:35-10:30 | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Best shorts, morning runners exhaust |
| 10:30-11:30 | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Secondary exhaustion, HOD rejections |
| 11:30-2:00 | ⭐⭐ | Midday lull, lower quality |
| 2:00-3:00 | ⭐⭐⭐ | Afternoon setups develop |
| 3:00-3:30 | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | End of day momentum |
| 3:30-4:00 | ⭐⭐ | Closing volatility, risky |

# Troubleshooting
## Common Issues
### "Signals aren't appearing"
- Check that the relevant system is enabled in settings
- Ensure minimum signals threshold isn't too high
- Verify the stock has sufficient volume for calculations
### "Too many false signals"
- Increase minimum signals threshold
- Use more conservative settings (see Settings section)
- Focus on stocks with cleaner price action
### "Dashboard not showing"
- Ensure "Show Signal Dashboard" is enabled
- Check that your chart has enough space
- Try a different dashboard position
### "VWAP line is missing"
- VWAP requires intraday timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m, etc.)
- VWAP resets daily; won't show on daily+ charts
- Ensure "Show VWAP Line" is enabled
### "Stop loss seems too tight/wide"
- Adjust Stop ATR Multiple in Risk Management settings
- Lower multiple = tighter stop
- Higher multiple = wider stop
### "Alerts not triggering"
- Verify alert is set to the correct indicator
- Check that alert hasn't expired
- Ensure notification settings are configured in TradingView
## Performance Optimization
If the indicator is slow:
1. Reduce the number of visual elements shown

*Penny Stock Short Signal Pro v1.0*
*Pine Script v6*
*© 2025*
Breakout Inside Candle PRO🟦1 INDICATOR PURPOSE
Breakout Inside Candle PRO is designed to identify live market compression using strict body-based logic and to automatically invalidate that structure the moment price exits it. The indicator prioritizes real-time relevance over historical pattern accumulation.
🟦2 STRUCTURAL DIFFERENTIATION
Most inside candle indicators leave historical highlights on the chart regardless of current validity. This indicator removes all compression highlights immediately after breakout, ensuring the chart reflects only the current structural state of the market.
🟦3 ABSOLUTE LIVE WIPEOUT MECHANISM
The indicator continuously monitors the live price position relative to the active body range. When price leaves the range, all inside candle highlights are instantly reverted, eliminating outdated structures and reducing cognitive bias.
🟦4 BODY-ONLY PRECISION
All calculations are performed using candle bodies rather than wicks. This design choice filters out transient liquidity events and focuses on accepted price, improving reliability in fast execution environments.
🟦5 BREAKOUT AWARENESS
Optional breakout markers identify the first candle resolving the compression. These markers support execution timing without attempting to predict direction or outcome.
🟦6 VISUAL DISCIPLINE
Dynamic boundary lines and a compact status matrix provide contextual clarity while avoiding chart clutter. Visual elements appear only when structurally relevant and disappear
automatically when invalid.
🟦7 EXECUTION INTEGRITY
An optional non-repainting mode ensures that inside candle validation occurs only after candle close, supporting disciplined execution and historical analysis.
🟦8 MARKET COMPATIBILITY
The indicator is compatible with all markets and all timeframes, making it suitable for scalpers, intraday traders, and structure-focused discretionary traders.
🟦9 PROFESSIONAL USE CASE
Breakout Inside Candle PRO is intended as a structural filter within a broader trading framework. It is designed for traders who value clarity, real-time validity, and rule-based decision support rather than signal abundance.

Adaptive Market Structure Channel By S B PrasadAdaptive Market Structure Channel (AMSC)
Institutional-Grade Trend, Volatility & Liquidity Framework
Overview
The Adaptive Market Structure Channel (AMSC) is a multi-engine, adaptive trading framework designed to read market structure, volatility, liquidity, and trend strength in real time.
It integrates ATR-based channels, pivot structure, supply–demand zones, liquidity sweeps, multi-factor momentum, and higher-timeframe confirmation into a single, coherent visual system.
AMSC is not a single-indicator strategy.
It is a context-driven decision framework intended to help traders align entries with dominant trend, structural levels, and institutional activity.
Core Components
1️⃣ Adaptive ATR Trend Channel
Dynamic ATR-based support & resistance
Automatically adjusts to volatility
Color-coded trend strength (strong / weak regimes)
Acts as the primary trend bias filter
2️⃣ Pivot-Based ATR Trend Channels
Channels built from confirmed pivot highs and lows
ATR-expanded structure, not fixed slopes
Separates impulse moves from corrections
Useful for trend continuation and pullback trades
3️⃣ Market Structure: Supply & Demand Zones
Automatically plots fresh demand and supply zones
Zones extend forward until violated
Helps identify high-probability reaction areas
Used as a location filter, not a standalone signal
4️⃣ Liquidity Sweep Detection (Smart Money Logic)
Identifies equal high / equal low liquidity pools
Detects stop-hunt style sweeps
Validates sweeps only when price reacts from structure zones
Prevents chasing false breakouts
5️⃣ Multi-Factor Trend Confirmation Engine
Combines:
EMA structure
MACD momentum
RSI regime
VWAP positioning
Optional ribbon & HMA filters
Signals are generated only when a majority of factors align, avoiding single-indicator bias.
6️⃣ Volatility Context (Bollinger Bands)
Provides volatility expansion / contraction context
Helps distinguish trend continuation vs compression
Works as a background regime filter
7️⃣ Higher Timeframe Confirmation
Confirms trend using a user-selected HTF
Prevents counter-trend trades during strong HTF bias
Essential for intraday and swing traders
8️⃣ Session-Aware Trading
Optional India, London, and New York session filters
Signals only during active market participation
Avoids low-liquidity false signals
9️⃣ Professional Dashboard
Real-time display of:
Trend direction
Trend strength
Factor alignment
HTF bias
Active zone
Trade signal
Session status
Designed for quick decision-making, not clutter.
How to Use AMSC (Best Practice)
✔ Trade in the direction of the ATR trend
✔ Enter near demand/supply within the channel
✔ Confirm with factor alignment & HTF bias
✔ Use liquidity sweeps as entry triggers, not signals alone
✔ Avoid trades during low-strength or inactive sessions
AMSC performs best when used as a confluence system, not a mechanical entry-exit robot.
Ideal Use Cases
Intraday index trading
Swing trading in trending markets
Futures & FX structure-based trading
Traders who prefer context over indicators
What AMSC Is NOT
❌ Not a scalping toy
❌ Not a repainting indicator
❌ Not a one-click signal generator
It is built for disciplined traders who understand structure and risk.
Final Note
AMSC is designed to think like the market, not predict it.
Use it to read conditions, not chase signals.
MSC — BEST CLEAN SETUP (RECOMMENDED)
🎯 Design Philosophy
“Context first, signals last.”
The goal is to:
Read trend & structure at a glance
Avoid indicator overload
Let price + zones + channel do the heavy lifting
1️⃣ CORE VISUALS (KEEP ON)
These are non-negotiable.
🔹 Adaptive ATR Trend Channel

👉 If price is below channel → bearish context
🔹 Pivot ATR Trend Channel
✅ ON
Channel fill: ON
Transparency ≥ 85
Purpose:
Visualise trend slope
Spot pullbacks inside trend
👉 Treat channel edges as dynamic structure, not entry signals.
🔹 Supply & Demand Zones
✅ ON
Transparency: 80–85
Zones auto-expire visually when violated
👉 These are your only horizontal levels.
2️⃣ SMART FILTERS (SELECTIVE)
💧 Liquidity Sweep
✅ ON
Lookback: 5
Tolerance: 0.15 ATR
👉 Use sweeps only near zones
❌ Ignore sweeps in the middle of nowhere

Ignore factor numbers once confidence develops.
6️⃣ SIGNAL USAGE (DISCIPLINE RULE)
✔ Signal must appear inside a zone
✔ Signal must align with trend & HTF
✔ Signal must be during session
❌ Never take:
Signals mid-channel
Signals against HTF

🚫 What You DO NOT See (Very Important)
A clean AMSC chart intentionally avoids:
Multiple moving averages
Pivot levels (P/R/S)
Too many channels
Oscillator panels
Bright fills or thick lines
If your chart looks “busy”, something is ON that should be OFF.
🧠 Mental Model (Keep This Image in Mind)
AMSC chart =
1 dynamic trend
1 structure channel
1 zone
1 liquidity event
1 decision
Anything more → clutter
Anything less → blind trading
✅ Final Visual Checklist (Before Trading)
✔ Chart background visible
✔ Candles clearly readable
✔ Zones visible but not loud
✔ Channel guides the eye
✔ Nothing overlaps price excessively
If yes → you are trading AMSC correctly
ZenAlgo - ControlZenAlgo - Control plots volume profile reference levels for several higher time windows and keeps those levels visible on the chart with labels and optional alerts. It is designed to work on intraday charts and uses the symbol's traded volume to estimate where the most activity occurred within each period.
Inputs and session alignment
Session start offset (hours) shifts the time used to decide when a new week, month, quarter, semi annual period, or year begins. This is useful when you want the period boundary to align with a specific exchange session, or when you want weekly boundaries to start at a different hour than the default.
Profile levels controls how finely the script bins price into equally sized price slices between the current period's high and low. More levels means a finer histogram (more detail, more computation).
Max rebuild bars limits how far back the script will look when it must rebuild the entire histogram (explained below).
Value Area % sets how much of the total estimated volume the value area should contain (default 0.68).
Label offsets control how far to the right the labels and lines extend, so the levels are readable without covering current candles.
Period availability and timeframe gating
The indicator conditionally runs each period engine depending on the chart timeframe to avoid heavy calculations where it is not intended.
Weekly is available on intraday timeframes below 1D (for example 1m to 4h).
Monthly is available on intraday timeframes at or above 15m.
Quarterly, Semi Annual, and Yearly are available on intraday timeframes at or above 1h.
The script disables these engines on D, W, M chart timeframes as described in the input tooltips and gating logic.
This matters because the calculation builds a histogram from bar ranges and volumes, which becomes expensive on very low timeframes over very long history.
Core idea - building a volume by price histogram from candles
For each enabled period (weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi annual, yearly), the script maintains:
The running high and low of the current period
A fixed number of price bins spanning that high to low range
An array holding estimated volume per price bin
For every new bar inside the current period, the script distributes that bar's volume into the bins that overlap the candle's low to high range. The distribution is weighted by how much of the candle's range overlaps each bin, so a candle that spans many bins contributes proportionally rather than assigning all volume to a single price.
Why this works conceptually:
Volume profile levels aim to identify prices where the market accepted a lot of trading (high participation).
Distributing volume across the candle's traded range is a practical approximation on platforms where true tick by tick volume at price is not available to Pine in a universal way.
Aggregating many bars over a full period produces a stable histogram where high volume areas stand out compared to low volume areas.
POC and Value Area calculation
Point of Control (POC)
Within a period, the script finds the price bin with the highest accumulated volume and uses the center of that bin as the period's POC level. This is the single price level where the histogram peaks.
Value Area High and Low (VAH, VAL)
After the POC is known, the script expands outward from the POC bin, adding neighboring bins until the cumulative included volume reaches the configured Value Area percentage of the total. It expands by comparing the volume just above and just below, including the larger side first so the chosen area reflects where volume clustered. The resulting upper and lower included bin centers become VAH and VAL.
Interpretation:
POC is a single most traded price area proxy for the period.
VAH and VAL bound the price region that contains the chosen fraction of the period's estimated volume.
When price is inside VA, it is within the range where most period volume occurred. When price is outside VA, it is in the lower participation tails relative to that period's distribution.
Incremental update vs rebuild logic
The histogram depends on the current period's high and low because those define the bin boundaries. When a new bar makes a new high or new low for the period, the bin boundaries would change. If you kept the old histogram, the bins would no longer correspond to the correct price slices.
To handle this, the script uses two modes:
Incremental update when the period high and low do not change on the new bar. It simply adds the new bar's weighted volume into the existing bins and recalculates the POC from the updated histogram.
Rebuild when the period makes a new high or new low. It clears the histogram and reconstructs it by iterating back over bars in the current period (up to Max rebuild bars), re distributing each bar's volume into the newly defined bins.
This approach keeps levels consistent with the current period range, at the cost of occasional heavier computation when the range expands.
Current period dPOC and previous period levels
The indicator draws two categories of levels per period.
Current period dPOC (running)
For each enabled period, the script plots a dotted line at the current period's running POC and labels it as dPOC (dynamic POC). It is dynamic because it changes while the period is still forming as new volume comes in and as the period range expands.
Previous period fixed levels
When a period rolls over (for example, a new week starts), the script stores the finished period's final POC, VAH, and VAL as previous levels. It then draws those previous levels across the current chart with solid (POC) and user selected styles (VAH, VAL), plus labels. These previous levels remain fixed until the next rollover of that period.
Why both exist:
The running dPOC reflects where trading is concentrating in the current unfinished period.
The previous period POC and VA levels provide stable references derived from a completed distribution, which does not change retroactively.
Visual plotting details
Each period has separate color settings for POC and dPOC, plus optional VAH and VAL with configurable line width and line style (solid, dashed, dotted).
Labels print the formatted level value using the symbol's minimum tick formatting, and for very large numbers the label shortens the text with K, M, B, T suffixes to keep labels readable.
Lines and labels are positioned to the right of price using the configured bar offsets. The script includes a safety limit on how far back the left anchor can be placed to avoid platform constraints when loading long history.
Alerts - touch and cross logic
Alerts are optional and can be configured per period and per level category.
You can enable:
TOUCH : triggers when the candle's low is at or below the level and the high is at or above the level (the bar range includes the level).
CROSS : triggers when the close crosses the level.
HIT is defined as TOUCH or CROSS.
You can choose to alert on:
Current running dPOC levels
Previous period POC and, if enabled, previous period VAH and VAL
Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Semi Annual, Yearly independently
How to interpret the plotted values
dPOC (W, M, Q, S, Y) : the current period's running POC estimate. It can move during the period and can shift more noticeably when the period range expands and a rebuild occurs.
POC (W, M, Q, S, Y) : the previous completed period's POC. This is fixed for the duration of the next period.
VAH / VAL (W, M, Q, S, Y) : the previous completed period's value area boundaries for the configured value area percentage.
A practical reading:
Previous POC and VA can be used as higher timeframe reference levels on lower timeframe charts because they summarize where volume concentrated over larger windows.
The current dPOC helps track where volume is concentrating inside the currently forming period.
Best use and workflow
Common ways to use these levels as references:
Use previous period POC and VA as context zones, then make lower timeframe decisions with your existing execution tools.
Treat dPOC as a live read of where the current period is building acceptance, and compare it to the fixed prior levels.
Use alerts to reduce screen time by being notified when price interacts with selected levels (touch or close cross).
Settings guidance:
Higher Profile levels increases detail but can be heavier on performance, especially when rebuilds occur.
If you need lighter computation on very active charts, reduce Profile levels or reduce Max rebuild bars.
If you want period boundaries to align with a specific session, adjust Session start offset.
Added value compared to free alternatives
This script focuses on a specific combination that is not always available together in simpler public indicators:
Simultaneous tracking of multiple higher time windows (weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi annual, yearly) with independent enable toggles and styling.
Side by side display of current running dPOC and previous completed period levels for each enabled window.
A candle range weighted volume distribution into bins, rather than assigning the entire bar volume to a single price proxy.
Built in alert conditions for touch and close cross across all supported windows and level types, so level interaction can be monitored without manual checking.
Label formatting that respects the symbol's tick size and shortens very large values for readability on indices and aggregates.
All supported periods are calculated using the same volume distribution model, the same binning logic, and the same rebuild rules. This ensures that weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi annual, and yearly levels are directly comparable to each other, unlike combining multiple separate indicators that may use different assumptions, aggregation methods, or update behavior. Using a single engine also enables consistent alert definitions and synchronized updates across all periods.
Disclaimers and where it can fall short
The volume at price distribution is an approximation derived from candle ranges and bar volume. It is not a true tick level volume profile, and results can differ from exchange native volume at price data.
On symbols where the reported volume is limited, synthetic, or not representative (some indices, some CFDs, some venues), the histogram is based on the volume series TradingView provides for that symbol, which may affect the usefulness of volume derived levels.
The current dPOC can change within the period and can jump when the period makes a new high or low, because a rebuild recalculates the histogram using the updated range.
Performance depends on timeframe, history loaded, Profile levels, and how often the period range expands. If you see slowness, reduce Profile levels or Max rebuild bars, or disable some periods.
This indicator plots reference levels only. It does not determine entries, exits, position sizing, or risk limits.

EMA Forecast [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The EMA Forecast extends traditional Exponential Moving Average analysis by projecting potential future EMA values up to 20 bars ahead. Unlike conventional dual-EMA systems that only display historical crossovers and trend states, this indicator uses three proprietary forecasting models, each analyzing different market dimensions (structure, volume dynamics, or mathematical trend), to explore potential price paths and calculate how the fast and slow EMAs might evolve. This approach allows traders to form probabilistic expectations about future trend states, crossover timing, and momentum shifts across various asset classes and timeframes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator operates through a multi-stage calculation process that projects EMA trajectories forward in time. First, it generates potential future price values using one of three selectable forecasting methods, each examining different market characteristics (structural patterns, volume accumulation/distribution, or linear trend progression). These projected prices then undergo a dynamic oscillation process that applies realistic volatility scaled by ATR (Average True Range), simulating natural price movement patterns rather than producing unrealistic smooth projections. Finally, the system performs iterative EMA calculations using the standard exponential formula, feeding each forecasted price sequentially through both the fast and slow EMA algorithms to generate continuous projected values while maintaining mathematical consistency with the historical EMAs.
The forecasting engine recalculates projections on every bar update (or confirmed bar, based on settings), adapting to evolving market conditions through configurable lookback periods. The implementation preserves the mathematical integrity of EMA calculations while extrapolating trend trajectories, creating visual continuity between historical solid EMA lines and forecasted semi-transparent dashed lines that extend beyond the current bar.
🟢 Key Features
1. Market Structure Model
This algorithm applies smart money concepts and price action analysis by identifying break of structure (BOS) and change of character (CHoCH) patterns to determine potential directional bias. The system detects swing highs and lows using configurable pivot lengths, then analyzes sequences of higher highs and lower lows to establish bullish or bearish structure states. When structure is bullish and price approaches recent swing lows, the forecast projects potential moves higher scaled by ATR and trend strength. Conversely, bearish structure near swing highs projects downward bias. In neutral structure states, the algorithm reverts to mean-reversion logic, projecting toward the midpoint between recent structural extremes.
▶ Practical Implications:
Explores potential EMA behavior during structural trend continuation
Identifies scenarios where structure breaks might influence EMA crossovers
Could be useful for swing traders and position traders who incorporate order flow and liquidity concepts
The Structure Influence parameter allows blending between pure trend following and structure-weighted forecasts
Helps visualize potential trend exhaustion when structure weakens or reverses
May assist in anticipating false breakouts when structure contradicts price direction
2. Volume-Weighted Model
This model synthesizes multiple volume-based metrics to assess potential capital flow and institutional activity. The algorithm combines On-Balance Volume (OBV) slope analysis, Accumulation/Distribution Line trajectory, volume-weighted returns, and volume spike detection above customizable thresholds. When all volume indicators align directionally (positive OBV slope, rising A/D line, positive volume momentum), the forecast projects stronger potential moves in that direction, reflecting significant accumulation or distribution. Volume spikes above the threshold trigger additional directional adjustments scaled by ATR. When volume metrics diverge from price trends, the forecast suggests potential consolidation or reversal scenarios.
▶ Practical Implications:
Incorporates institutional footprint analysis into EMA trend forecasting
Attempts to distinguish between price moves supported by volume versus those that may lack follow-through
Could be particularly relevant in markets where volume data is reliable and significant
Volume Influence parameter enables adaptation to different market microstructures and liquidity profiles
Highlights potential accumulation/distribution phases that might precede major EMA crossovers
May help filter low-volume price noise that creates false EMA signals
Could be valuable for traders who require volume confirmation before acting on trend signals
3. Linear Regression Model
This mathematical approach applies least-squares regression fitting to project simple trend trajectories based on recent price history. The algorithm calculates the best-fit line through the lookback period and extrapolates it forward using the regression equation, providing straightforward trend continuation forecasts without conditional logic or market-state dependencies.
▶ Practical Implications:
Delivers reproducible forecasts based on statistical principles
Performs well in established trending markets with clear directional bias
Minimal parameter sensitivity (primarily controlled by lookback period length)
Computationally efficient with fast recalculation suitable for multi-timeframe analysis
Serves as a neutral baseline to compare against the more complex structure and volume methods
Provides simpler forecasts in low-noise environments without the assumptions inherent in smart money or volume analysis
🟢 Universal Applications Across All Models
Each forecasting method projects potential future EMA values (both fast and slow lines), which traders can use to:
▶ Anticipate potential crossovers: Visualize possible bullish or bearish EMA crosses several bars ahead, enabling proactive position planning rather than reactive trade execution
▶ Explore trend continuation scenarios: Assess whether current trends might maintain separation between EMAs or converge toward crossover zones
▶ Plan entry timing: Identify potential optimal entry points along the forecasted EMA trajectory, such as price pullbacks to the forecasted fast EMA in uptrends
▶ Evaluate trend strength: Monitor the distance between forecasted fast and slow EMAs as a proxy for potential momentum sustainability
▶ Develop systematic strategies: Build rules based on forecasted crossover timing, EMA slope changes, or convergence/divergence patterns
▶ Adapt to market conditions: Switch between forecasting methods based on current market character, e.g., structure method for range-bound or reversal markets, volume method for liquidity-driven moves, linear regression for clean trending environments
▶ Assess risk/reward: Use forecasted EMA levels as potential dynamic support/resistance for stop-loss placement and profit target estimation
▶ Combine with other indicators: Layer forecasted EMA crossovers with momentum oscillators, volatility bands, or volume profiles for multi-confirmation setups
The indicator includes extensive customization options: adjustable EMA periods, forecast volatility control to simulate realistic or smooth price movement, realtime bar inclusion toggle, multiple color presets, optional bar coloring, crossover signal triangles, configurable transparency, and built-in alerts.
As with all technical analysis tools, these forecasts represent potential scenarios based on current data and chosen methodologies. They should be integrated into a comprehensive trading plan that includes risk management, fundamental analysis, and multiple timeframe confirmation rather than used as standalone predictive signals. Market conditions can change rapidly, and no forecasting algorithm can account for unexpected news events, regime shifts, or black swan occurrences. The true benefit lies not in expecting precise forecasts but in developing a forward-thinking perspective on possible market conditions and planning your responses accordingly.

RSI Statistics [Honestcowboy]⯁ Overview
Research tool for analysing price behaviour based on RSI, find out how your favorite trading pair / timeframe combinations react to RSI. 5 Different projections based on 5 different value zones of RSI:
RSI between 100-80 (very overbought)
RSI between 80-60 (overbought)
RSI between 60-40 (normal)
RSI between 40-20 (oversold)
RSI between 20-00 (very oversold)
The script simply show price projections of different RSI environments so you can get an idea of what price could do when RSI reaches this RSI value zone. Ofcourse past price performance does not guarantee future returns and this is just projections based on the past.
The script also projects RSI just like it does with price so you can get an idea of how long RSI might stay in overbought or very overbought etc
Script is mainly a research tool to use to get ideas to explore further and build upon. Here are some examples:
⯁ Settings
RSI Lenght: this is just normal RSI settings you find in standard RSI (bars used to calculate RSI)
Projection Length: Amount of bars to save for projections. The projections will also project this many bars in futre. Higher values here increase loading time drastically.
Price Action Boundaries: turn the highs / lows of projection zone on or off. I usually turn this off to look more closely at the averages themselves.
Maximum Stats history: Not on by default, in case you only want to show the average projection of last X amount of occurences RSI was in a specific RSI value zone
Selection of the different zones: in case you want to look at a specific zone alone or turn of some zones. It will no longer project for that zone both in the price projection and RSI projections.
⯁ How are these calculated?
To calculate the average price reaction script uses a very simple approach. On each bar it will save price action array up to projection length back in time. It will then check what the RSI value was there and store the array inside the right matrix.
It will use this matrix to calculate the averages, highs and lows of all these arrays for that specific RSI zone. It uses a simple arithmatic averaging method to get average value.
The script uses a similar approach for projecting the RSI itself into the future.
I include a visual showing it a bit better. This is from a different indicator of me using same approach:
The script will force you into a specific background, bar color and color template. Script is not meant to be used with other scripts and should be used as a standalone tool.
