Dark Vector ScalpingThe Dark Vector Scalping indicator is a high-frequency trend-following system designed specifically to capture rapid momentum shifts in the market. It combines a staircase-style breakout logic with volatility-adjusted trailing stops to define market direction.
While the underlying math is robust enough for various asset classes, this specific configuration is optimized for scalping operations on 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes. It aims to filter out the "noise" common in lower timeframes while reacting quickly to genuine breakouts.
Core Components
1. The Apex Engine (Staircase Logic) Unlike traditional moving averages that curve with price, this engine uses a "hard" breakout logic. It looks back at a specific number of bars (Sensitivity) to find the highest highs and lowest lows.
Bullish Flip: Occurs when the price closes below the calculated low of the previous trend.
Bearish Flip: Occurs when the price closes above the calculated high of the previous trend.
Trailing Stop: Once a trend is established, a trailing stop line is drawn. This line only moves in the direction of the trend (up for bullish, down for bearish) and never retraces, acting as a ratchet to lock in paper profits.
2. Volatility Normalization To prevent getting stopped out by random market noise (scam wicks), the indicator calculates the Average True Range (ATR). It multiplies this volatility metric by a user-defined deviation factor to determine exactly how far the stop line should be from the current price action.
3. The Hull Moving Average (HMA) Filter The script includes an optional 50-period Hull Moving Average. The HMA is known for being extremely fast and smooth, reducing lag compared to standard moving averages.
Visual Reference: You can plot the line to see the overall macro trend.
Hard Filter: You can enable a "Safety Filter" in the settings. If enabled, the system will only generate Buy signals if the price is above the HMA, and Sell signals if the price is below the HMA.
4. The Dashboard A data panel is located on the chart (customizable position) to provide instant numerical data without needing to calculate levels manually. It displays the current trend state, the exact price of the trailing stop, and the status of the HMA filter.
Settings & Configuration
Sensitivity (Lookback)
Default: 5
This is the primary setting for the Apex Engine. A setting of 5 is the "sweet spot" for 1-minute and 5-minute charts. It allows the system to react very quickly to sudden volume spikes. Increasing this number (e.g., to 10) will make the signals slower and more conservative.
Stop Deviation
Default: 3.0
This controls the "breathing room" for the trade. A value of 3.0 allows for standard volatility on minute charts without triggering a premature exit. Lowering this to 2.0 will result in tighter stops but more false signals.
HMA Filter
Use HMA as Filter? (Default: OFF):
When OFF, the system signals purely on price action breakouts (fastest).
When ON, the system waits for the price to align with the 50-period HMA before signaling (safest, but may delay entry).
How to Interpret Visuals
Candle Colors
Teal/Green: The market is in a Bullish regime.
Red/Pink: The market is in a Bearish regime.
The Line
The solid stepped line represents the hard invalidation point. If price closes beyond this line, the trend is considered over.
Diamond Signals
Light Green Diamond (Below Bar): Confirmed Buy Signal. A new bullish trend has started.
Light Red/Pink Diamond (Above Bar): Confirmed Sell Signal. A new bearish trend has started.
Trading Strategy Guide
The Scalp Entry
Ensure you are on a 1-minute or 5-minute timeframe.
Wait for a signal Diamond to close. Do not enter while the bar is still forming, as the signal may repaint (disappear) if the price retraces before the close.
Long Entry: Enter when a Green Diamond appears and the candle turns Teal.
Short Entry: Enter when a Red Diamond appears and the candle turns Red.
Risk Management
Stop Loss: Your invalidation level is the "Apex Stop" line. You can place your hard stop loss slightly beyond this line.
Take Profit: Because this is a trend-following system, it is often best to hold until the candle color changes, or to take profit at fixed Risk:Reward ratios (e.g., 1:1.5 or 1:2).
The HMA Nuance If you find the market is "choppy" (moving sideways), enable the "Use HMA as Filter" option in the settings. This will force the system to ignore signals that are counter-trend to the longer-term momentum.

Trend Follow Line Point📌 Trend Follow Line Point
The Trend Follow Line Point indicator removes the confusing, repainting-based swing connections commonly found in traditional swing tools.
It maintains consistent swing-point calculation, keeps structural swing lines intact even when trend lines are broken, and integrates market structure + trend + volatility + volume into one intuitive, visual indicator.
This tool is designed for:
Trend Following
Swing Structure Analysis
Volatility-Based Entry & Exit
Market Strength Evaluation
📊 Component Explanation
🔹 1. Swing High / Swing Low Detection
Based on the user-defined sensitivity (swgLen):
A Swing High forms when the current high exceeds the previous swgLen highs.
A Swing Low forms when the current low falls below the previous swgLen lows.
🔹 2. Swing-Based Structure Lines
Connect Swing Highs → Structural visualization
Connect Swing Lows → Structural visualization
These lines reveal the underlying market structure without repainting or disappearing unexpectedly.
🔹 3. Dynamic ATR + Volume Weighting
ATR values combined with the volume ratio (vol / volMA) create a dynamic volatility channel that reflects real-time market pressure.
🔹 4. Enhanced SuperTrend Calculation
Uses ATR-based stability to produce more realistic and smoother trend lines, reducing noise and improving signal clarity.
🔹 5. Trend Color Mapping
Up Trend → User-selected color
Down Trend → User-selected color
Visual trend direction and strength can be identified immediately.
🧭 How to Use
When Swing Highs/Lows are detected, structure lines are automatically drawn between previous swings.
Use these lines to evaluate support/resistance breaks and overall structural direction.
Manage risk with volatility guidance:
Higher ATR (volume-weighted) → wider trend spacing → increased risk
Lower ATR → tighter spacing → reduced risk
This helps with position sizing, entry timing, and exit decisions.

HL/LH Confirmation Strategy (Clean Market Structure)🚦 HL/LH Confirmation Strategy (Clean Market Structure)
This indicator is specifically designed to help traders identify a clean market structure by tracking the formation of Higher Lows (HL) and Lower Highs (LH). Rather than chasing new price extremes (new Highs or new Lows), the focus is on waiting for trend strength confirmation before considering an entry.
Key Strategy: Waiting for Trend Confirmation 💡
The core advantage of this indicator lies in its confirmation strategy:
For Uptrends (Bullish): The indicator doesn't signal just any low, but only when it detects a Higher Low (HL)—a low that is higher than the previous low. This is a crucial sign that the market has defended a level and is ready to continue moving up. This approach helps avoid chasing new lows and encourages entering trades after confirmation.
For Downtrends (Bearish): Similarly, the indicator looks for the formation of a Lower High (LH)—a high that is lower than the previous high. This suggests that buyers failed to breach the last resistance, signaling a potential continuation of the downside movement.
The indicator alternates between looking for an HL, then an LH, then an HL, visually mapping the Pivot swings and highlighting the moment of trend confirmation for potential trade entries.
Indicator Features ✨
Clear Structure Display: By drawing connecting lines between valid HL and LH points, the indicator visually maps the current market structure.
Pivot Detection: It uses an effective method for Pivot detection, with the sensitivity adjustable via the "Pivot Left" and "Pivot Right" parameters.
Custom Label Placement (Crucial Detail):
HL Label: Placed below the candle for better visual clarity of the bullish support area.
LH Label: Placed above the candle for better visual clarity of the bearish resistance area.
Customizable Colors: Full control over the background and text colors for HL and LH signals, as well as the thickness and color of the connecting lines between Pivot points.
⚙️ Input Parameters
Pivot Settings
Pivot Left / Pivot Right: Determine the number of bars to the left and right that must have lower/higher prices for a point to be declared a valid Pivot (Pivot High or Pivot Low). Increase these values to detect more significant, longer-term swings.
Signal Colors
HL Background/Text Color: Colors for the background and text of the Higher Low (HL) labels.
LH Background/Text Color: Colors for the background and text of the Lower High (LH) labels.
Line Settings
Line Color / Line Width: Allows customization of the appearance of the line connecting the detected HL and LH points.
Recommended Use
This indicator is ideal for traders practicing Price Action and strategies based on Market Structure. Use the HL signals as potential zones for long entries (buying) in an uptrend, and LH signals as zones for short entries (selling) in a downtrend, always after the point formation is confirmed.
Ehlers Dominant Cycle Stochastic RSIEhlers Enhanced Cycle Stochastic RSI
OVERVIEW
The Ehlers Enhanced Cycle Stochastic RSI is a momentum oscillator that automatically adjusts its lookback periods based on the dominant market cycle. Unlike traditional Stochastic RSI which uses fixed periods, this indicator detects the current cycle length and scales its calculations—making it responsive in fast markets and stable in slow ones.
The indicator combines John Ehlers' digital signal processing research with the classic Stochastic RSI indicator, then adds a confirmation system to ensure cycle measurements are reliable.
THE THEORY
Traditional oscillators use fixed lookback periods (ie, 14-bar RSI). This creates a fundamental problem: markets don't move in fixed cycles. A 14-period RSI might capture the rhythm perfectly during one market phase, then completely miss it when conditions change.
Ehlers' research demonstrated that price data contains measurable cyclical components. If you can detect the dominant cycle length, you can tune your indicators to match it—like tuning a radio to the right frequency.
This indicator takes that concept further by using three independent cycle detection methods and only trusting the measurement when they agree:
Hilbert Transform — A mathematical technique from signal processing that extracts cycle period from the phase relationship between price and its derivative. It is fast but can be noisy.
Autocorrelation Periodogram — Measures how similar the price series is to lagged versions of itself. The lag with highest correlation reveals the dominant cycle. More stable than Hilbert, but slightly slower to adapt.
Goertzel Algorithm (DFT) — A frequency-domain approach that calculates spectral power at each candidate period. Identifies which frequencies contain the most energy.
When all three methods converge on similar period estimates, confidence is high. When they disagree, the market may be in a non-cyclical or in transition.
HOW IT CHANGES THE STOCHASTIC RSI
Standard Stochastic RSI:
1. Calculate RSI with fixed period (14 bars)
2. Apply Stochastic formula over fixed period (14 bars)
3. Smooth with fixed periods
Ehlers Enhanced Cycle Stochastic RSI:
1. Detect dominant cycle using three methods
2. Confirm cycle measurement (methods must agree)
3. Calculate RSI with period scaled to the detected cycle
4. Apply Stochastic formula with cycle-scaled lookback
5. Smooth adaptively
The result: when the market is cycling quickly (say, 15-bar cycles), the indicator uses shorter periods and responds faster. When the market stretches into longer cycles (such as 40-bar cycles), it automatically extends its lookback to avoid whipsaws.
The Period Multipliers let you fine-tune this relationship:
• 1.0 = Use the full detected cycle (smoother, fewer signals)
• 0.5 = Use half the cycle (more responsive, catches turns earlier)
INTERPRETATION
Reading the Oscillator:
• K Line (Blue) — The main signal line. Moves between 0 and 100.
• D Line (Orange) — Smoothed version of K. Use for confirmation.
• Above 80 — Overbought. Momentum stretched to upside.
• Below 20 — Oversold. Momentum stretched to downside.
• Crossovers — K crossing above D suggests bullish momentum shift; K crossing below D suggests bearish.
Spectral Dilation (optional):
When enabled, applies a bandpass filter before cycle detection. This isolates the frequency band of interest and reduces noise. Useful for:
• Very noisy instruments
• Lower timeframes
• When confidence stays persistently low
Zig Zag & Trendlines with Dynamic Threshold ATRPercentage Zig Zag with Dynamic Threshold
This Pine Script indicator is an advanced Zig Zag tool that identifies and tracks price pivots based on a percentage move required for reversal, offering a clear visual representation of volatility-adjusted trends.
Core Functionality (The Reversal Threshold):
Unlike standard Zig Zag indicators that use a fixed price difference, this indicator calculates the required reversal size (%X) dynamically using the Average True Range (ATR).
It calculates the ATR as a percentage of the current price (ATR%).
The final threshold is this ATR% multiplied by a user-defined factor (default 3x).
This means the reversal threshold is wider during volatile periods and narrower during quiet periods, adapting automatically to market conditions. Users can optionally revert to a fixed percentage if desired.
Trend Extension Lines:
The indicator draws two unique, dynamic trend lines connecting the last two significant Highs and the last two significant Lows. Crucially, these lines do not wait for the entire Zig Zag leg to confirm:
If the price is actively forming a new up-leg, the High Extension Line connects the last confirmed High to the current extreme high of the active move.
The Low Extension Line functions similarly for the downtrend.
This feature allows the user to visualize dynamic support and resistance levels based on the current, active trend structure defined by the percentage threshold.

Ultimate_Price_Action_Tool_V2 by chaitu50cUltimate_Price_Action_Tool_V2 by chaitu50c — Session-Based SR Box Engine
This indicator builds clean, session-aware support and resistance “zones” from pure price action. It is designed for intraday and positional traders who want objective, rule-based zones instead of manual drawing.
Core Logic
Price-action based MAIN zones
Detects bullish and bearish breakouts using a strict body-structure:
Single-candle and double-candle breakout patterns.
Breakouts are confirmed only when closes break beyond previous highs/lows.
From each valid breakout, the tool builds a MAIN Support or MAIN Resistance box:
For bullish breaks, the zone is created from a combined low to the nearest open/close in the breakout combo.
For bearish breaks, the zone is created from a combined high to the nearest open/close in the breakout combo.
Optional first-box logic:
Can create the very first MAIN zone in a session from a simple opposite-color pair (without a full breakout), if enabled.
SUB zones on break
When price breaks a MAIN Support downwards with a red candle, the MAIN box is removed/frozen and:
A new SUB Resistance box is created above, using the current bar’s structure.
When price breaks a MAIN Resistance upwards with a green candle:
A new SUB Support box is created below.
SUB zones are optional and can be fully disabled if the user prefers a clean MAIN-only view.
Session Handling
The script is fully session-aware and can work in different market structures:
Session Mode options
Clock Session
Uses a fixed time window (e.g., 09:15–15:30).
Zones can be shown only inside the session or kept visible outside, depending on settings.
New Day
Each new trading day is treated as a fresh session.
Auto Gap
A new session starts whenever the time gap between candles exceeds a user-defined threshold (in minutes).
Session IDs and history
Each new session gets its own ID.
You can display zones for the last N sessions (including current).
Older sessions fade out visually but remain internally tracked to control visibility.
Main Features & Options
Initial Right Offset
Every new zone is projected to the right by a configurable number of bars.
All active boxes continuously extend with this offset, keeping zones clearly projected into the future.
Single MAIN per side (per session)
Optional constraint to have only:
One active MAIN Support and
One active MAIN Resistance
per session on the chart.
This prevents overcrowding and focuses on the most recent key structure.
MAIN vs SUB Overlap Control
When a new MAIN zone overlaps an existing SUB zone, you can choose:
Suppress MAIN (ignore the new MAIN if it clashes with a SUB),
Remove SUB (delete overlapping SUB zones and keep the new MAIN), or
Allow Both (plot everything and let the trader decide).
Vertical overlap is evaluated using a configurable minimum overlap percentage.
SUB suppression under MAIN
SUB boxes that overlap strongly with active MAIN zones can be auto-suppressed to avoid redundant clutter.
This suppression uses the same percent-based overlap logic.
Broken MAIN box handling
When a MAIN zone is broken:
Option 1: Fully delete it (classic behavior).
Option 2: Convert it into a 1-bar “marker” box at its origin, so you still see where the original zone formed without extending into the future.
Break candle coloring
The candle that breaks a MAIN zone can be optionally painted:
Red when breaking support.
Green when breaking resistance.
Helps visually confirm genuine breaks vs. simple intrabar tests.
Visual & Styling Controls
Separate style controls for:
MAIN Support / MAIN Resistance
Independent fill and border colors.
SUB Support / SUB Resistance
Independent fill and border colors.
Opacity and border colors are internally managed so that:
Recent sessions are clearly visible.
Older sessions are softly faded to maintain context without noise.
Typical Use Cases
Intraday traders looking for:
Clean, rule-based supply and demand zones.
Zones that respect actual session structure (clock, daily, or gap-based).
Swing traders who:
Want to track how current price reacts to the most recent 1–N sessions’ zones.
Price action traders who:
Prefer breakout-based zones rather than indicator-driven levels.
Need automatic zone management (creation, extension, break handling, and suppression).
This tool is built to be modular and configurable: you can run it minimal (only MAIN zones, single side per session) or fully featured (MAIN + SUB, multi-session history, overlap handling, and break paints). All logic is strictly price-action based with no dependency on volume or external indicators.

Auto 5-Wave Fixed Channel + Wave 5 Top / Wave 2-ABC BottomAuto 5-Wave Fixed Channel + Wave 5 Top / Wave 2-ABC Bottom
by Ron999
1. What this indicator does
This tool automatically hunts for bullish 5-wave impulse structures and then:
Labels the waves: W1, W2, W3, W4, W5
Draws a fixed “acceleration” channel based on the wave structure
Projects a Wave-5 target zone using a 1.618 extension
Marks the Wave-2 level as an ABC correction target
Triggers optional alerts when:
A new Wave-5 top completes
An ABC bottom forms back near the Wave-2 low
It’s designed as a mechanical, rule-based approximation of Elliott 5-wave impulses – built for traders who like the idea of wave structure but want something objective and programmable.
2. How the wave logic works
The script continuously scans for pivot highs and lows using a user-defined Pivot Length.
It only keeps the last 5 alternating pivots (high → low → high → low → high).
When those last 5 pivots form this pattern:
Pivot 1 → High (W1)
Pivot 2 → Low (W2)
Pivot 3 → High (W3)
Pivot 4 → Low (W4)
Pivot 5 → High (W5)
…the indicator treats this as a bullish 5-wave impulse.
When such a structure is detected, it “locks in” the wave prices and bars and draws the channels and labels.
Note: Pivots are only confirmed after Pivot Length bars, so swings are slightly delayed by design (standard pivot logic).
3. Channels & levels
Once a valid bullish 5-wave structure is found, the script builds three key pieces:
a) Base Acceleration Channel (Blue)
Anchored from Wave-2 low toward Wave-3 high.
This forms a rising acceleration channel that represents the impulse leg.
The channel extends to the right, so you can see how price interacts with it after W3–W5.
b) Wave-5 Target Line (Red, dashed)
Uses the height from Wave-2 low to Wave-3 high.
Projects a 1.618 extension of that height above Wave-3.
This line acts as a potential Wave-5 exhaustion zone (take-profit / reversal watch area).
c) Wave-2 / ABC Bottom Level (Green, dotted)
Horizontal line drawn at the Wave-2 low.
This acts as a retest / corrective target for the ABC correction after the impulse completes.
When price later revisits this area (within a tolerance), the script can mark it as a potential ABC bottom.
4. Labels & signals
If labels are enabled:
W1, W2, W3, W4, W5 are plotted directly on their corresponding pivot bars.
When an ABC-style retest is detected near the Wave-2 level, an “ABC” label is printed at that low.
Wave-5 Top Event
Triggered when a new valid bullish 5-wave structure is completed.
The last pivot high in the pattern is flagged as Wave-5.
ABC Bottom Event
After a Wave-5 impulse, the script watches for new low pivots.
If a new low forms within ABC Bottom Proximity (%) of the Wave-2 price, it is treated as an ABC bottom near Wave-2 and marked on the chart.
5. Inputs & customization
Show Fixed Channels
Toggle all channel drawing on/off.
Label Waves
Toggle plotting of W1–W5 and ABC labels.
Alerts: Wave-5 Top & ABC Bottom
Master switch for enabling the script’s alert conditions.
Pivot Length
Controls how “swingy” the detection is.
Smaller values → more frequent, smaller waves
Larger values → fewer, larger structural waves
ABC Bottom Proximity (%)
Allowed percentage distance between the ABC low and the Wave-2 price.
Example: 5% means any ABC low within ±5% of Wave-2 is considered valid.
6. Alerts (how to use them)
The script exposes two alertcondition() events:
Wave-5 Top (Bullish Impulse)
Fires when a new 5-wave bullish structure completes.
Use this to watch for potential exhaustion tops or to tighten stops.
ABC Bottom near Wave-2 Low
Fires when an ABC-style correction prints a low near the Wave-2 level.
Use this to stalk potential end-of-correction entries in the direction of the original impulse.
On TradingView, add an alert to the script and choose the desired condition from the dropdown.
7. How to use it in your trading
This tool is best used as a structural context layer, not a standalone system:
Identify bullish impulsive trends when a Wave-5 structure completes.
Use the Wave-5 target line as a potential area for:
Scaling out
Watching for exhaustion / divergences / reversal patterns
Use the Wave-2/ABC level and ABC Bottom signal:
To look for end of correction entries back in the trend direction
To align with your own confluence (support/resistance, volume, RSI, etc.)
It works well on crypto, FX, indices, and stocks, especially on higher timeframes where structure is cleaner.
8. Limitations & notes
This is a mechanical approximation of Elliott 5-wave theory — it will not match every analyst’s discretionary count.
Pivots are confirmed after Pivot Length bars, so signals are not instant; they’re based on completed swings.
The indicator currently focuses on bullish impulses (upward 5-wave structures).
As always, this is not financial advice. Combine it with your own strategy, risk management, and confirmation tools.

VB Sigma Smart Momentum IndicatorVB Sigma Smart Momentum Indicator (VBSSMI)
The VBSSMI provides a consolidated decision-support framework that surfaces market participation, trend integrity, and liquidity conditions in a single visual environment. The tool integrates four analytical modules: MCDX Flow Mapping, Donchian Regime Layers, Banker Flow Modeling, and Chop Zone Trend Classification. Together, these components convert raw price movement into an actionable interpretation of who is in control, whether momentum is durable, and what phase the instrument is currently cycling through.
How to Use the Indicator (Practical Workflow)
1. Start with Institutional / Banker Flow (Pink/Red/Yellow/Green Candles)
This is the primary signal layer. It tells you when high-capacity participants are increasing, reducing, or reversing risk.
Yellow Candle — Entry Bias
Indicates a potential institutional initiation when their trend metric crosses above their accumulation threshold.
Operational signal: instrument enters “monitor for entry” state.
Green Candle — Accumulation State
Fund-trend > bullbearline.
Operational signal: trend integrity improving; pullbacks are generally buyable.
White Candle — Distribution / Cooling
Fund-trend weakening but not broken.
Operational signal: tighten stops; momentum deteriorating.
Red Candle — Exit / Trend Failure
Fund-trend < bullbearline.
Operational signal: momentum regime invalidated; avoid long risk.
Blue Candle — Weak Rebound
A temporary uptick within broader weakness.
Operational signal: do not mistake this for a durable reversal.
2. Validate alignment with Flow Chips (Retail / Trader / Institutional)
These three flow columns (MCDX layers) answer: who is actually participating?
Retailer Flow (Locked Chips – Green)
High values imply retail conviction, often late-cycle.
Good for confirming trend strength, not timing entries.
Trader Zone Flow (Float Chips – Yellow)
When this spikes, volatility and tactical positioning increase.
Signal: strong short-term engagement, supports breakout/trend continuation.
Institutional Flow (Profitable Chips – Red/Pink)
This is the “true north” of momentum.
Rising values = institutions controlling price discovery.
Signal: long setups have statistical tailwind.
The operational guidance is straightforward:
Institutional Flow > Trader Flow > Retail Flow
is the healthiest configuration for sustainable upside momentum.
3. Confirm Breakout / Breakdown Conditions with Donchian Regime Columns
The vertical Donchian stack illustrates trend regime in a time-compressed format.
Bright Blue/Cyan
Structure expanding upward (breakout cluster).
Dark Purple/Red
Structure breaking downward (breakdown cluster).
Mixed Columns
Transitional or indecisive conditions.
Interpret it as a “momentum backdrop”:
If Donchian columns and Banker Flow candles disagree, avoid entries.
4. Consult the Chop Zone Strip Before Committing Capital
The Chop Zone uses EMA angle to determine whether the market is trending or congested.
Greens/Blues → Trend phase (favorable environment for continuation trades).
Yellows/Oranges/Reds → High noise probability; expect false signals.
Operationally:
Never enter breakout setups during yellow/orange/red chop.
5. Final Decision Framework (Checklist)
A long setup typically requires:
Green or Yellow Banker Flow Candle
Institutional Flow rising
Donchian columns in bullish regime colors
Chop Zone in a trend color (not red/yellow/orange)
A short setup is the exact inverse.
Recommended Use Cases
Momentum trading
Swing position building
Institutional-flow confirmation
Trend-filtering before deploying breakout systems
Screening for strong/weak symbols in multi-asset rotation strategies
Elliott Wave Full Fractal System CleanElliott Wave: Full Fractal System (Automated)
This script is a complete Fractal Trading System that automates Elliott Wave analysis. It moves beyond simple wave counting by combining multi-degree wave detection (Primary, Intermediate, Minor) with an automated "Sniper" entry strategy based on high-probability Wave 4 pullbacks.
1. Idea of the Script This tool acts as an educational Elliott Wave assistant that automatically:
Detects Swings: Uses a pivot engine (ZigZag-like logic) to identify key market structure.
Identifies Impulses: Scans for valid 1–5 motive waves across multiple timeframes.
Visualizes Corrections: Detects and labels A-B-C corrective phases after an impulse.
Executes Strategy: Adds a strategy layer on the Intermediate degree to backtest optimal entry zones.
2. How it Works: The "Fractal Sniper" Strategy The script applies strict algorithmic logic to Elliott Wave Theory. It analyzes the Intermediate (Green) degree to generate signals:
Step 1: The Setup (Wave 3 Identification) The script scans for a valid Wave 3 impulse. It ensures Wave 3 is not the shortest and the structure respects fractal rules.
Step 2: The "Wait" Phase (Target Zone) Once Wave 3 is confirmed, the script projects a Box (Green for Long, Red for Short). You will see a label: WAIT FOR DIP. Logic: We wait for price to retrace to the 50% Fibonacci level (The Golden Zone). We do not chase the top of Wave 3.
Step 3: The Trigger ("Sniper" Entry) A trade is triggered only when price touches the specific entry zone while maintaining structure. Signal: Sniper Long 🚀 or Sniper Short 🔻.
Step 4: Automated Risk Management
Stop Loss (SL): Placed at the extremum of Wave 1 (Theory: Wave 4 cannot overlap Wave 1).
Take Profit (TP): Placed at the 1.618 Fibonacci Extension of Wave 5.
3. 📊 Visual Legend (Fractal Degrees) The script analyzes three timeframes simultaneously. Use this guide to read the chart:
🔵 Blue (Primary Degree): Macro Trend. Marked with Circles (①, ②...). Use this for overall market bias.
🟢 Green (Intermediate Degree): The Trading Layer. Marked with Parentheses ((1), (2)...). All Strategy Signals are generated from this degree.
🔴 Red (Minor Degree): Micro Structure. Marked with Roman Numerals (i, ii...). Useful for seeing the sub-waves inside larger moves.
4. 📉 A-B-C Corrections (Visual Only) The script automatically detects and labels corrective phases (A, B, C) following a 5-wave impulse.
Function: These labels indicate that the trend is correcting or resting.
Note: The "Strategy" (Buy/Sell logic) ignores these A-B-C labels. It sees the correction and draws it for your awareness, but it does not risk money on counter-trend moves.
5. ⚠️ CRITICAL NOTE ON BACKTESTING & LAG This strategy uses ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow to identify wave structures.
The Lag: Pivot points are lagging indicators. A pivot is only mathematically confirmed X bars after the peak or valley has occurred.
The Backtest: While the labels are drawn historically on the correct bars, the strategy logic strictly waits for the pivot confirmation before generating a signal. This prevents "repainting" in live trading, but users must understand that the signal occurs after the pivot is locked in.
6. Settings Included
Degrees: Customizable lookback lengths for Primary, Intermediate, and Minor waves.
Strict Rules: Toggle to enforce standard Elliott rules (e.g., No Overlap).
Realistic Simulation: Commission and slippage are enabled in the strategy settings to provide realistic results.
Disclaimer: This script is for educational and research purposes only. It applies strict algorithmic logic to Elliott Wave Theory, but wave counting is inherently subjective. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Grok/Claude Turtle Soup Strategy # 🥣 Turtle Soup Strategy (Enhanced)
## A Mean-Reversion Strategy Based on Failed Breakouts
---
## Historical Origins
### The Original Turtle Traders (1983-1988)
The Turtle Trading system is one of the most famous experiments in trading history. In 1983, legendary commodities trader **Richard Dennis** made a bet with his partner **William Eckhardt** about whether great traders were born or made. Dennis believed trading could be taught; Eckhardt believed it was innate.
To settle the debate, Dennis recruited 23 ordinary people through newspaper ads—including a professional blackjack player, a fantasy game designer, and an accountant—and taught them his trading system in just two weeks. He called them "Turtles" after turtle farms he had visited in Singapore, saying *"We are going to grow traders just like they grow turtles in Singapore."*
The results were extraordinary. Over the next five years, the Turtles reportedly earned over **$175 million in profits**. The experiment proved Dennis right: trading could indeed be taught.
#### The Original Turtle Rules:
- **Entry:** Buy when price breaks above the 20-day high (System 1) or 55-day high (System 2)
- **Exit:** Sell when price breaks below the 10-day low (System 1) or 20-day low (System 2)
- **Stop Loss:** 2x ATR (Average True Range) from entry
- **Position Sizing:** Based on volatility (ATR)
- **Philosophy:** Pure trend-following—catch big moves by riding breakouts
The Turtle system was a **trend-following** strategy that assumed breakouts would lead to sustained trends. It worked brilliantly in trending markets but suffered during choppy, range-bound conditions.

### The Turtle Soup Strategy (1990s)
In the 1990s, renowned trader **Linda Bradford Raschke** (along with Larry Connors) observed something interesting: many of the breakouts that the Turtle system traded actually *failed*. Price would spike above the 20-day high, trigger Turtle buy orders, then immediately reverse—trapping the breakout traders.
Raschke realized these failed breakouts were predictable and tradeable. She developed the **Turtle Soup** strategy, which does the *exact opposite* of the original Turtle system:
> *"Instead of buying the breakout, we wait for it to fail—then fade it."*
The name "Turtle Soup" is a clever play on words: the strategy essentially "eats" the Turtles by trading against them when their breakouts fail.
#### Original Turtle Soup Rules:
- **Setup:** Price makes a new 20-day high (or low)
- **Qualifier:** The previous 20-day high must be at least 3-4 days old (not a fresh breakout)
- **Entry Trigger:** Price reverses back inside the channel (failed breakout)
- **Entry:** Go SHORT (against the failed breakout above), or LONG (against the failed breakdown below)
- **Philosophy:** Mean-reversion—fade false breakouts and profit from trapped traders
#### Turtle Soup Plus One Variant:
Raschke also developed a more conservative variant called "Turtle Soup Plus One" which waits for the *next bar* after the breakout to confirm the failure before entering. This reduces false signals but may miss some opportunities.

## Our Enhanced Turtle Soup Strategy
We have taken the classic Turtle Soup concept and enhanced it with modern technical indicators and filters to improve signal quality and adapt to today's markets.
### Core Logic Preserved
The fundamental strategy remains true to Raschke's original concept:
| Turtle (Original) | Turtle Soup (Our Strategy) |
|-------------------|---------------------------|
| BUY breakout above 20-day high | SHORT when that breakout FAILS |
| SELL breakout below 20-day low | LONG when that breakdown FAILS |
| Trend-following | Mean-reversion |
| "The trend is your friend" | "Failed breakouts trap traders" |
---
### Enhancements & Improvements
#### 1. RSI Exhaustion Filter
**Addition:** RSI must confirm exhaustion before entry
- **For SHORT entries:** RSI > 60 (buyers exhausted)
- **For LONG entries:** RSI < 40 (sellers exhausted)
**Why:** The original Turtle Soup had no momentum filter. Adding RSI ensures we only fade breakouts when the market is showing signs of exhaustion, significantly reducing false signals. This enhancement was inspired by later traders who found RSI extremes (originally 90/10, softened to 60/40) dramatically improved win rates.
#### 2. ADX Trending Filter
**Addition:** ADX must be > 20 for trades to execute
**Why:** While the original Turtle Soup was designed for ranging markets, we found that requiring *some* trend strength (ADX > 20) actually improves results. This ensures we're trading in markets with enough directional movement to create meaningful failed breakouts, rather than random noise in dead markets.
#### 3. Heikin Ashi Smoothing
**Addition:** Optional Heikin Ashi calculations for breakout detection
**Why:** Heikin Ashi candles smooth out price noise and make trend reversals more visible. When enabled, the strategy uses HA values to detect breakouts and failures, reducing whipsaws from erratic price spikes.
#### 4. Dynamic Donchian Channels with Regime Detection
**Addition:** Color-coded channels based on market regime
- 🟢 **Green:** Bullish regime (uptrend + DI+ > DI- + OBV bullish)
- 🔴 **Red:** Bearish regime (downtrend + DI- > DI+ + OBV bearish)
- 🟡 **Yellow:** Neutral regime
**Why:** Visual regime detection helps traders understand the broader market context. The original Turtle Soup had no regime awareness—our enhancement lets traders see at a glance whether conditions favor the strategy.
#### 5. Volume Spike Detection (Optional)
**Addition:** Optional filter requiring volume surge on the breakout bar
**Why:** Failed breakouts are more significant when they occur on high volume. A volume spike on the breakout bar (default 1.2x average) indicates more traders got trapped, creating stronger reversal potential.
#### 6. ATR-Based Stops and Targets
**Addition:** Configurable ATR-based stop losses and profit targets
- **Stop Loss:** 1.5x ATR (default)
- **Profit Target:** 2.0x ATR (default)
**Why:** The original Turtle Soup used fixed stop placement. ATR-based stops adapt to current volatility, providing tighter stops in calm markets and wider stops in volatile conditions.
#### 7. Signal Cooldown
**Addition:** Minimum bars between trades (default 5)
**Why:** Prevents overtrading during choppy conditions where multiple failed breakouts might occur in quick succession.
#### 8. Real-Time Info Panel
**Addition:** Comprehensive dashboard showing:
- Current regime (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
- RSI value and zone
- ADX value and trending status
- Breakout status
- Bars since last high/low
- Current setup status
- Position status
**Why:** Gives traders instant visibility into all strategy conditions without needing to check multiple indicators.

## Philosophy
> *"The Turtle system made millions by following breakouts. The Turtle Soup strategy makes money when those breakouts fail. In trading, there's always someone on the other side of the trade—this strategy profits by being the smart money that fades the trapped breakout traders."*
The beauty of the Turtle Soup strategy is its elegant simplicity: it exploits a known, repeatable pattern (failed breakouts) while using modern filters (RSI, ADX) to improve timing and reduce false signals.

*"We're not following the turtles—we're making soup out of them."* 🥣
Titan AI: EWO Pro + Divergencias de VolumenBINANCE:BTCUSDT.P The indicator is only in Spanish.
Titan AI: EWO Pro is not your standard Elliott Wave Oscillator. It is a next-generation Order Flow & Volume engine designed to detect the true intent of the market. Unlike traditional oscillators that rely solely on price action, Titan EWO Pro incorporates a "Volume Efficiency" algorithm normalized via Z-Score (Standard Deviation).
This indicator is built for traders who need to see what is happening inside the candles. It answers the critical question: "Is the price moving with real institutional backing, or is it a fake-out with no volume?"
With the integrated "GOD MODE" Dashboard, you get a tactical Heads-Up Display (HUD) that translates complex mathematical data into clear, actionable signals in real-time.
💎 Key Features
Z-Score Normalized EWO:
Standard EWO indicators can vary wildly depending on the asset price (BTC vs. Forex).
Titan EWO Pro normalizes the data using Standard Deviations (Z-Score). This means a value of +2.0 represents a statistically significant extreme move, regardless of the timeframe or asset.
Volume Efficiency Algorithm:
The core calculation measures (Close - Open) / Volume. This determines how much volume was required to move the price.
High efficiency means price is moving easily (strong trend). Low efficiency means high volume but little movement (absorption/reversal).
Volume Divergences:
Automatically detects discrepancies between Price Action and Order Flow.
Bullish Divergence: Price makes a Lower Low, but Titan EWO makes a Higher Low (Accumulation).
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a Higher High, but Titan EWO makes a Lower High (Distribution).
Institutional Extremes (Reversals):
The indicator marks the +2.0 and -2.0 Standard Deviation levels.
When the histogram crosses these levels, the market is statistically overextended. Watch for Triangle Signals indicating a potential "V" reversal or exhaustion.
GOD MODE Dashboard (HUD):
A professional panel fixed to your screen (customizable position).
Trend: Displays strict Bullish (Green) or Bearish (Red) status.
Strength (Z): The exact Z-Score value.
Momentum: Tells you if the move is "Accelerating" or "Braking" (Decelerating).
Divergence: Real-time alert status.
🚀 How to Use
1. Trend Following (The Wave)
Green Bars: Look for Longs. Momentum is bullish and Order Flow supports the move.
Red Bars: Look for Shorts. Momentum is bearish.
Darker Colors: If the bars turn dark green or dark red, momentum is slowing down (Deceleration). This is a warning to tighten Stop Losses or wait for a new impulse.
2. Trading Reversals (The Extremes)
Statistical Extremes: If the histogram punches through the +2.0 or -2.0 dotted lines, the move is overextended (climax).
Triangles: Small triangles appear at the top/bottom of the chart when these extremes are hit. This is often a "Take Profit" signal or a contrarian entry point if confirmed by price action.
3. Divergences (The Smart Entry)
Look for the "Vol" circles.
A Green Circle at the bottom indicates that sellers are exhausted, but volume flow is shifting bullish.
A Red Circle at the top indicates that buyers are exhausted (price up, but volume flow down).
4. The Dashboard
Use the dashboard for confirmation.
Ideally: You want "ALCISTA" (Bullish), "ACELERANDO" (Accelerating), and a high Z-Score (> 0.5) for a strong Long trade.
⚙️ Settings
EWO Length: The lookback period for the oscillator (Default: 12).
Smoothing: Helps reduce noise in the histogram (Default: 10).
Pivot Lookback: Sensitivity for divergence detection (Default: 5).
Dashboard: You can toggle the panel ON/OFF, change its size (Tiny/Small/Normal), and move it to any corner of the chart.

HTF Manipulation Swing Points [Pogiest]General
HTF Manipulation Swing Points plots out relevant swings on the higher timeframes selected and draws a horizontal line anchored from the extremes of the swing point. These are important levels traders can look to base entries off of. This indicator is designed to track higher timeframe swing points on a lower timeframe. It will detect a sweep (Manipulation) or a breakout/breakdown (Failure to Manipulate) based on the higher timeframe candle close.
Usage
Depending on how the higher timeframe candles engage the relevant swing points, it can assist traders on bias and direction given the higher timeframe order-flow, lower timeframe order-flow, zones, levels, etc. Manipulation of swing points can potentially signal the start of a reversal or retracement. Failure to Manipulate swing points can potentially signal continuation of the higher timeframe current trend. It is up to the trader to gauge the price action at these levels.
How the Indicator works
1. Lines (Not engaged) - Plots out line from higher timeframe swing points and extends to the right.
2. Manipulation (M) - M label will be plotted on the swing point line that has been engaged. For example, if 1 hour timeframe was selected in settings and the 1 hour swing point line is plotted on the chart, the indicator will track the first one hour candle to engage the line and wait for the 1 hour engaging candle to close before marking it out as a Manipulation label. It is deemed to be manipulation if the 1 hour candle sweeps the level and closes back into the range.
3. Failure to Manipulate (FTM) - FTM label functions the same as Manipulation in which it waits for the swing point line to be engaged in order for a label to be printed. However, if the price does not sweep the swing point, breaks through, and closes beyond the level then it would be deemed a "Failure to Manipulate".
Note: The timeframe selected in settings will match the engaging candle. For instance, if a 4 hour timeframe is selected, the next 4 hour candle that engages the swing point level will need to close before it displays a label. In addition, this indicator is designed to view on lower timeframes with higher timeframe swing points selected in Settings.

Session Opening Range Breakout (ORBO)This strategy automates a classic Opening Range Breakout (ORBO) approach: it builds a price range for the first minutes after the market opens, then looks for strong breakouts above or below that range to catch early directional moves.
Concept
The idea behind ORBO is simple:
The first minutes after the session open are often highly informative.
Price forms an “opening range” that acts as a mini support/resistance zone.
A clean breakout beyond this zone can lead to high-momentum moves.
This script turns that logic into a fully backtestable strategy in TradingView.
How the strategy works
Opening Range Session
Default session: 09:30–09:50 (exchange time)
During this window, the script tracks:
orHigh → highest high within the session
orLow → lowest low within the session
This forms your Opening Range for the day.
Breakout Logic (after the window ends)
Once the defined session ends:
Long Entry:
If the close crosses above the Opening Range High (orHigh),
→ strategy.entry("OR Long", strategy.long) is triggered.
Short Entry:
If the close crosses below the Opening Range Low (orLow),
→ strategy.entry("OR Short", strategy.short) is triggered.
Only one opening range per day is considered, which keeps the logic clean and easy to interpret.
Daily Reset
At the start of a new trading day, the script resets:
orHigh := na
orLow := na
A fresh Opening Range is then built using the next session’s 09:30–09:50 candles.
This ensures entries are always based on today’s structure, not yesterday’s.
Visuals & Inputs
Inputs:
Opening range session → default: "0930-0950"
Show OR levels → toggle visibility of OR High / Low lines
Fill range body → optional shaded zone between OR High and OR Low
Chart visuals:
A green line marks the Opening Range High.
A red line marks the Opening Range Low.
Optional yellow fill highlights the entire OR zone.
Background shading during the session shows when the range is currently being built.
These visuals make it easy to see:
Where the OR sits relative to current price
How clean / noisy the breakout was
How often price respects or rejects the opening zone
Backtesting & Optimization

# 🥣 Turtle Soup Strategy (Enhanced)
## A Mean-Reversion Strategy Based on Failed Breakouts

## Historical Origins
### The Original Turtle Traders (1983-1988)
The Turtle Trading system is one of the most famous experiments in trading history. In 1983, legendary commodities trader **Richard Dennis** made a bet with his partner **William Eckhardt** about whether great traders were born or made. Dennis believed trading could be taught; Eckhardt believed it was innate.
To settle the debate, Dennis recruited 23 ordinary people through newspaper ads—including a professional blackjack player, a fantasy game designer, and an accountant—and taught them his trading system in just two weeks. He called them "Turtles" after turtle farms he had visited in Singapore, saying *"We are going to grow traders just like they grow turtles in Singapore."*
The results were extraordinary. Over the next five years, the Turtles reportedly earned over **$175 million in profits**. The experiment proved Dennis right: trading could indeed be taught.
#### The Original Turtle Rules:
- **Entry:** Buy when price breaks above the 20-day high (System 1) or 55-day high (System 2)
- **Exit:** Sell when price breaks below the 10-day low (System 1) or 20-day low (System 2)
- **Stop Loss:** 2x ATR (Average True Range) from entry
- **Position Sizing:** Based on volatility (ATR)
- **Philosophy:** Pure trend-following—catch big moves by riding breakouts
The Turtle system was a **trend-following** strategy that assumed breakouts would lead to sustained trends. It worked brilliantly in trending markets but suffered during choppy, range-bound conditions.

## Philosophy
> *"The Turtle system made millions by following breakouts. The Turtle Soup strategy makes money when those breakouts fail. In trading, there's always someone on the other side of the trade—this strategy profits by being the smart money that fades the trapped breakout traders."*
The beauty of the Turtle Soup strategy is its elegant simplicity: it exploits a known, repeatable pattern (failed breakouts) while using modern filters (RSI, ADX) to improve timing and reduce false signals.

## 📋 WHY YM? LEVERAGING LOW VOLATILITY
### The YM Advantage
Most traders avoid YM because "it doesn't move enough." This is precisely why it's perfect for precision scalping:
| Factor | NQ | YM | Advantage |
|--------|----|----|-----------|
| **Daily Range** | 300-600 pts | 150-400 pts | More predictable moves |
| **Tick Value** | $5/tick (4 ticks/pt) | $5/tick (1 tick/pt) | Simpler math |
| **Retail Noise** | High | Low | Cleaner signals |
| **Whipsaws** | Frequent | Rare | Fewer fakeouts |
| **Trend Persistence** | Short | Long | Easier holds |
| **Fill Quality** | Variable | Consistent | Better execution |
### Why 3-7 Trades is the Sweet Spot
```
YM SESSION BREAKDOWN:
════════════════════
LONDON (3-5 AM ET): 1-2 trades
├── Why: European institutions positioning for US open
├── Character: Slow build-up, clean trends
└── Best signals: Zone entries + A/B tier
NY OPEN (9:30-11:30 AM ET): 2-3 trades
├── Why: Highest volume, most institutional activity
├── Character: Initial balance formation, breakouts
└── Best signals: S/A tier, zone confluence
POWER HOUR (3-4 PM ET): 1-2 trades
├── Why: End-of-day rebalancing, MOC orders
├── Character: Mean reversion or trend acceleration
└── Best signals: Zone entries, B tier quick scalps
TOTAL: 4-7 high-quality setups per day
```

## 🔧 YM-SPECIFIC OPTIMIZATIONS
This unified indicator has been specifically tuned for YM's characteristics:
### Tier Thresholds
| Tier | NQ (Original) | YM (Optimized) | Rationale |
|------|---------------|----------------|-----------|
| S-Tier | 100 pts | **50 pts** | YM's daily range is ~50% of NQ |
| A-Tier | 50 pts | **25 pts** | Proportional scaling |
| B-Tier | 20 pts | **12 pts** | Still 5%+ of typical daily range |
### Filter Adjustments
| Filter | NQ Value | YM Value | Why |
|--------|----------|----------|-----|
| Volume Ratio | 1.5x | **1.8x** | Higher bar = less retail noise |
| Delta Threshold | 60% | **62%** | Tighter for cleaner signals |
| Body Ratio | 70% | **72%** | More conviction required |
| Range Multiplier | 1.3x | **1.4x** | Bigger move = real signal |
| Gap ATR% | 30% | **25%** | Smaller gaps still significant |
| Zone Age | 50 bars | **75 bars** | Zones last longer in slow market |
### Why These Changes Work
1. **Higher Volume Bar**: YM has more institutional flow. Requiring 1.8x volume ensures we're catching real moves, not retail chop.
2. **Tighter Delta**: With less noise, we can demand clearer buyer/seller dominance before entering.
3. **Longer Zone Life**: YM trends persist longer. A zone that would be stale in NQ is still viable in YM.
4. **Smaller Gap Threshold**: YM gaps are naturally smaller. 25% of ATR in YM is significant institutional activity.

## 📊 CONFLUENCE SCORING SYSTEM
The unified indicator uses a 10-point confluence scoring system to filter for only the highest-probability setups:
### Score Breakdown
```
CONFLUENCE SCORE CALCULATION:
═════════════════════════════
BASE POINTS (Tier):
├── S-Tier signal: +3 points
├── A-Tier signal: +2 points
└── B-Tier signal: +1 point
BONUS POINTS:
├── Inside Active Zone (DFZ): +2 points
│ └── Price within bull/bear zone = institutional level
│
├── POC Alignment: +1 point
│ └── POC at body extreme = strong conviction
│
├── Imbalance Support: +1 point
│ └── Supporting imbalance within 1 ATR
│
├── Strong Volume (2x+): +1 point
│ └── Exceptional institutional participation
│
├── Strong Delta (70%+): +1 point
│ └── Clear one-sided aggression
│
└── CVD Momentum: +1 point
└── CVD trending with signal direction
MAXIMUM POSSIBLE: 10 points
```
### Score Interpretation
| Score | Quality | Action | Expected Win Rate |
|-------|---------|--------|-------------------|
| 8-10 | 🥇 Elite | Full size, hold for target | 75-80% |
| 6-7 | 🥈 Strong | Standard size, manage actively | 65-70% |
| 5 | 🥉 Valid | Reduced size, quick scalp | 55-60% |
| <5 | ⚫ Filtered | No signal shown | N/A |
### Adjusting Minimum Score
- **Conservative (Score ≥6)**: Fewer trades, higher win rate
- **Standard (Score ≥5)**: Balanced approach, 3-7 trades/day
- **Aggressive (Score ≥4)**: More trades, requires active management

## 📐 SIGNAL TYPES EXPLAINED
### 1. GRA Tier Signals (S🎯, A🎯, B🎯)
These are the primary signals from the merged GRA system:
```
TIER SIGNAL REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Point movement meets tier threshold
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.8x average
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% (buy or sell dominance)
├── ✓ Body ≥ 72% of candle range
├── ✓ Range ≥ 1.4x average
├── ✓ Small opposite wick (<50% of body)
├── ✓ CVD confirms direction (if enabled)
├── ✓ Active session (LDN/NY/PWR)
└── ✓ Confluence Score ≥ minimum (default 5)
```
### 2. Zone Entry Signals (Z🎯)
When price enters a DeepFlow zone with confirmation:
```
ZONE ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Price inside fresh/tested zone (not broken)
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% in zone direction
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.5x average
└── ✓ Active session
NOTE: Z🎯 only appears when NOT already showing tier signal
(prevents duplicate signals on same candle)
```
### 3. Single Print Markers (SP)
Mark institutional impulse candles for future S/R:
```
SINGLE PRINT REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Range ≥ 1.6x average
├── ✓ Body ≥ 72% of range
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.8x average
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% confirms direction
└── ✓ Active session
USE: Horizontal lines at high/low act as future S/R
```
---
## 🎯 TRADING STRATEGIES
### Strategy 1: Zone + Tier Confluence (Highest Probability)
```
THE ULTIMATE YM SETUP:
═══════════════════════
Setup:
1. Active DeepFlow zone exists (green box below for long)
2. Price pulls back INTO the zone
3. Tier signal fires INSIDE the zone (S🎯/A🎯)
4. Score shows 7+/10
Entry: Signal candle close
Stop: Below zone bottom (for longs)
Target: Based on tier (1.5-2.5:1 R:R)
Why It Works:
• Zone = institutional limit orders
• Tier signal = momentum confirmation
• Double confirmation = high probability
Expected Win Rate: 70-75%
```
### Strategy 2: Pure Tier Signal with POC Stop
```
SNIPER TIER TRADE:
══════════════════
Setup:
1. Tier signal appears (preferably A or S)
2. Score ≥ 5/10
3. Note POC level on signal candle
4. Red/green stop/target lines appear
Entry: Signal candle close
Stop: Beyond POC (shown on chart)
Target: Auto-calculated based on tier
Key: POC placement matters
• POC near candle bottom (longs) = STRONG
• POC in middle = weaker signal
• POC at extreme = possible exhaustion
Expected Win Rate: 60-65%
```
### Strategy 3: Zone Bounce (Continuation)
```
ZONE BOUNCE TRADE:
══════════════════
Setup:
1. Fresh zone created during session
2. Price leaves zone, moves in zone direction
3. Price returns to test zone (within 15 bars)
4. Z🎯 signal appears or rejection candle forms
Entry: At CE line (middle of zone)
Stop: Beyond zone edge
Target: Previous swing high/low
Why It Works:
• Zones represent unfilled orders
• First retest often finds support/resistance
• Lower volatility = cleaner bounces
Expected Win Rate: 55-60%
```
### Strategy 4: Single Print Scalp
```
SINGLE PRINT SCALP:
═══════════════════
Setup:
1. Single Print (SP) marker appears
2. Note the gold/purple lines at high/low
3. Wait for price to return to SP level
4. Look for rejection or tier signal at level
Entry: At SP line with confirmation
Stop: Beyond the SP line
Target: Quick 1:1 or to next structure
Why It Works:
• SP = price moved too fast, orders unfilled
• Price often returns to "fill" these levels
• YM's slower pace makes retests likely
Expected Win Rate: 55-60%
```
