Exciting Candles by BitcoinBailyExciting Candles by BitcoinBaily — is a custom indicator that visually highlights "momentum" or "exciting" candlesticks on the chart.
It helps traders quickly identify candles with strong body-to-range ratios, i.e., candles showing strong price momentum (big move between open and close relative to the high-low range).
If the candle’s body is greater than or equal to the threshold percentage (say 85%), the bar is colored yellow. Otherwise, no color is applied.
Yellow Candle = Exciting Candle
The candle’s body occupies ≥ the set % (e.g., 85%) of the total high-low range.
Indicates strong momentum (buyers or sellers dominated most of that period).
No Color = Neutral / Normal Candle
Price moved both ways (upper & lower wicks), but neither buyers nor sellers fully dominated.
1. Range Breakout: When price breaks a sideways range and a yellow (exciting) candle appears,
it confirms that real momentum has entered — a good time to catch the move early.
2. Trend Pullback: If price dips to a moving average (like 20 or 50 SMA) and then forms a yellow
candle, it signals that buyers are regaining control — often a high-probability trend
continuation entry.
3. Exhaustion Top: A yellow bearish candle near a resistance area shows strong selling pressure
— a warning that the uptrend may be ending.
4. Sideways Market: When no yellow candles appear, the market lacks momentum — best to
stay out and avoid choppy trades.
Day Trading Signals BETAThis TradingView indicator, titled "Day Trading Signals BETA," is a trend-following tool designed to generate clear buy and sell signals directly on the price chart. Its core logic is built around an ATR (Average True Range) trailing stop, which dynamically calculates a stop-loss level that adjusts based on market volatility. The script plots a "Buy" signal when the price crosses above this trailing stop, indicating a potential shift to an uptrend, and a "Sell" signal when the price crosses below it, signaling a potential move into a downtrend. The indicator also colors the price bars blue for bullish conditions and black for bearish conditions, providing an immediate visual confirmation of the current market trend. User-adjustable inputs for sensitivity (Key Value) and the ATR Period allow traders to customize the indicator's responsiveness to different assets and timeframes.
Support and Resistance LevelsSupport and Resistance Levels Indicator
Introducing an indicator that helps automatically identify key support and resistance levels. It analyzes historical data to detect price pivot points and draws horizontal lines based on them. This simplifies chart analysis and allows you to focus on important zones.
How the Indicator Works
The indicator searches for groups of pivot points (minimum three by default) that lie at the same price level within a specified tolerance (in ATR). If the price has bounced off this level three or more times—up or down—the indicator draws a line. The line displays all the points that formed it (small markers "•").
The line color depends on the type of the last point: green for support (lower pivots) and red for resistance (upper pivots). But remember, this is conditional—any level can act as support or resistance depending on the context. The key is that these are zones of interest where price often reacts.
Features
The indicator excels at finding strong levels, but on lower timeframes or during prolonged consolidation (sideways movement) due to market noise, it may draw many lines. To avoid accidentally removing useful levels, I didn't add automatic filtering. In such cases, just evaluate the levels manually—look at the context and the strength of the touches.
Main Feature: Alerts for Premium Subscription
If you have TradingView Premium, the indicator turns into a powerful scanner. Set up an alert for a list of hundreds of instruments: when the price on any of them approaches a level closely (by default within 0.15 ATR), you'll get a push notification. Add filters for trading volume (over 5 minutes or 24 hours) and volatility—and false signals are minimized.
For example, you have a list of 100 instruments. Set up the alert—and you'll immediately receive notifications for all where the price is already close to a level: "BTCUSD on 1h: price near resistance level 60,000", "ETHUSD on 4h: price near support 3,000", and so on. And if later the price on any other instrument from the list approaches a level—you'll get a new message with details. All that's left is to open the relevant chart, assess the situation, and decide: enter the trade or skip it. This saves hours of monitoring!
Индикатор уровней поддержки и сопротивления
Представляю индикатор, который помогает автоматически находить ключевые уровни поддержки и сопротивления. Он анализирует исторические данные, выявляя точки разворота цены, и строит на их основе горизонтальные линии. Это упрощает анализ графика и позволяет фокусироваться на важных зонах.
Как работает индикатор
Индикатор ищет группы точек разворота (по умолчанию минимум три), которые лежат на одной ценовой отметке в пределах заданной погрешности (в ATR). Если цена трижды (или больше) отскакивала от этого уровня — вверх или вниз, — индикатор рисует линию. На линии отображаются все точки, которые её сформировали (маленькие метки "•").
Цвет линии зависит от типа последней точки: зелёный для поддержки (нижние развороты) и красный для сопротивления (верхние). Но помните, это условно — любой уровень может работать как поддержка или сопротивление в зависимости от контекста. Суть в том, что это зоны интереса, где цена часто реагирует.
Особенности
Индикатор хорошо справляется с поиском сильных уровней, но на низких таймфреймах или в длительной консолидации (боковике) из-за рыночного шума может появиться много линий. Чтобы не рисковать удалением полезных уровней, я не добавил автоматическую фильтрацию. В таких случаях просто оценивайте уровни вручную — смотрите на контекст и силу касаний.
Главная фишка: Алерты для Premium-подписки
Если у вас TradingView Premium, индикатор превращается в мощный сканер. Создайте алерт на список из сотен инструментов: когда цена на любом из них подойдёт близко к уровню (по умолчанию в пределах 0.15 ATR), вы получите push-уведомление. Добавьте фильтры по объёму торгов (за 5 минут или 24 часа) и волатильности — и ложные сигналы минимизированы.
Например, у вас список из 100 инструментов. Настройте алерт — и сразу придут уведомления по всем, где цена уже близко к уровню: "BTCUSD на 1ч: цена у уровня сопротивления 60 000", "ETHUSD на 4ч: цена у поддержки 3000" и так далее. А если позже на любом другом инструменте из списка цена приблизится к уровню — придет новое сообщение с деталями. Остаётся только открыть нужный график, оценить ситуацию и решить: входить в сделку или пропустить. Это экономит часы мониторинга!
ORCAORCA - Multi-Period Level Analysis
The ORCA indicator identifies and visualizes significant price levels based on historical market data. It automatically calculates support and resistance areas from previous trading periods and projects them as horizontal lines into the future.
The levels are derived through mathematical calculations using high, low, and closing prices from past time intervals, providing reference points for potential price reactions.

🌓 Lunar Phases EMA Overlay — Лунные циклы и фазы Луны на графике
Описание:
Этот индикатор накладывает лунные циклы на график цены, визуализируя фазы Луны (🌑 Новолуние, 🌓 Первая четверть, 🌕 Полнолуние, 🌗 Последняя четверть) с точностью до одного дня.
Он позволяет увидеть ритм рынка через естественные биоритмы планеты — астрономические лунные фазы, которые нередко совпадают с разворотами трендов, зонами повышенной волатильности и сменой настроения рынка.
⚙️ Основные функции
🌕 Полнолуние, Новолуние и четверти — отмечены метками и иконками.
🌒 Цветные зоны показывают растущую и убывающую фазу Луны.
🌙 Параболические дуги визуализируют энергетический цикл (купол при росте, чаша при снижении).
📈 Привязка к EMA — все волны и дуги «сидят» прямо на цене, вне зависимости от масштаба.
🟣 Боксы фаз — отображают движение цены от полнолуния до новолуния и обратно, включая Δ% и количество баров.
🔔 Алерты — срабатывают при наступлении каждой ключевой фазы (🌑/🌓/🌕/🌗).
🎨 Гибкая настройка — можно регулировать амплитуду, высоту, цвета, длину EMA и отображаемые элементы.
🔍 Зачем это нужно трейдеру
Лунный цикл — это природный ритм энергии и волатильности.
На крипто- и фондовом рынке часто можно наблюдать совпадения:
🌕 Полнолуние → пики рынка, повышенная эмоциональность, развороты вниз.
🌑 Новолуние → фазы накопления и переход к росту.
🌓 / 🌗 → локальные фазы напряжения и коррекций.
Комбинируй индикатор с классическим теханализом (уровни, EMA, RSI, объёмы) — и ты увидишь закономерности, которые раньше ускользали.
🧭 Рекомендации
Оптимальный таймфрейм: 1D.
Для уточнения внутридневных движений можно использовать 4H–8H.
Лучше всего работает на BTC, ETH, золоте, индексах — инструментах с глобальной ликвидностью.
При необходимости можно скорректировать смещение (phaseOffsetD) на ±0.5, чтобы подогнать фазы под локальное время.

🌕 Lunar Phases EMA Overlay — Visualize the Moon’s Rhythm on the Market
Description:
This indicator overlays lunar phases directly on your price chart, aligning astronomical moon cycles (🌑 New Moon, 🌓 First Quarter, 🌕 Full Moon, 🌗 Last Quarter) with market movements.
It reveals how natural rhythms — the Moon’s waxing and waning — often coincide with trend reversals, volatility peaks, and emotional shifts in the market.
⚙️ Main Features
🌕 Precise moon phases — New Moon, Full Moon, and both quarters shown with icons and labels.
🌒 Colored bands — highlight waxing (bullish) and waning (bearish) lunar periods.
🌙 Parabolic arcs — visualize the energy curve: rising dome for waxing, descending bowl for waning.
📈 EMA anchoring — all visuals automatically adjust to your chart’s price range.
🟣 Phase boxes — display price movement and % change between lunar cycles.
🔔 Alerts — get notified when each phase begins (🌑/🌓/🌕/🌗).
🎨 Customizable — adjust amplitude, color themes, EMA length, and visibility of elements.
🔍 Why It Matters
Lunar cycles mirror collective market sentiment.
Statistically, many assets — especially Bitcoin, gold, and major indices — show repeating patterns around lunar transitions:
🌕 Full Moon → peaks, emotional highs, and local reversals.
🌑 New Moon → accumulation, calmer sentiment, and potential trend shifts.
🌓 / 🌗 → tension zones before correction or breakout.
Use it alongside your regular technical indicators (EMA, RSI, volume) to observe hidden rhythm and cyclical timing.
🧭 Recommended Settings
Best timeframe: 1D (daily).
Works also on 4H–8H for shorter-term cycle views.
Adjust phaseOffsetD by ±0.5 if your timezone causes visible shift in lunar markers.
Suitable for all assets with consistent trading flow (crypto, commodities, indices).
How to use:
Apply on Daily timeframe for best accuracy.
Use with RSI or EMA for trend confirmation.
Look for reactions around 🌕 and 🌑 — these often align with local tops and bottoms.

London Breakout Structure by Ale📈 London Breakout Structure by Ale
This indicator identifies market structure breakouts (CHOCH/BOS) within a specific London session window, highlighting potential breakout trades with automatic entry, stop loss (SL), and take profit (TP) levels.
It helps traders focus on high-probability breakouts when volatility increases after the Asian session, using price structure, ATR-based volatility filters, and a custom risk/reward setup.
🔹 Example of Strategy Application
Define your session (e.g. 04:00 to 05:00).
Wait for a CHOCH (Change of Character) inside this session.
If a bullish CHOCH occurs → go LONG at candle close.
If a bearish CHOCH occurs → go SHORT at candle close.
SL is set below/above the previous swing using ATR × multiplier.
TP is calculated automatically based on your R:R ratio.
📊 Example:
When price breaks above the last swing high within the session, a “BUY” label appears and the indicator draws Entry, SL, and TP levels automatically.
If the breakout fails and price closes below the opposite structure, a “SELL” signal will replace the bullish setup.
🔹 Details
The logic is based on structural shifts (CHOCH/BOS):
A CHOCH occurs when price breaks and closes beyond the most recent high/low.
The indicator dynamically detects these shifts in structure, validating them only inside your chosen time window (e.g. the London Open).
The ATR filter ensures setups are valid only when the range has enough volatility, avoiding false signals in low-volume hours.
You can also visualize:
The session area (purple background)
Entry, Stop Loss, and Take Profit levels
Direction labels (BUY/SELL)
ATR line for volatility context
🔹 Configuration
Start / End Hour: define your preferred trading window.
ATR Length & Multiplier: adjust for volatility.
Risk/Reward Ratio: set your desired R:R (default 1:2).
Minimum Range Filter: avoids signals with tight SLs.
Alerts: receive notifications when breakout conditions occur.
🔹 Recommendations
Works best on 15m or 5m charts during London session.
Designed for breakout and structure-based traders.
Works on Forex, Crypto, and Indices.
Ideal as a visual and educational tool for understanding BOS/CHOCH behavior.
Tzuriamos - WatermarkThis is an indicator for the beauty and order of the chart, highly recommended. Feel free to use it. TradingView asked for a long description, so there's no need to read. I'm just digging. Thank you for reading this far.
Asia Session Mechanical Entry This indicator executes fully mechanical trades at the start of the Asian session (default: 20:00 Argentina time).
Core logic:
Compares the closing prices of the previous two sessions at 20:00 and 09:00 to determine bias.
If both days move in the same direction, the indicator takes a mean-reversion trade (opposite to the last two days’ move).
If the days move in opposite directions, the trade follows the most recent day’s direction.
Execution details:
Entry price: exact session open or delayed by a user-defined number of candles.
Stop Loss: nearest swing high/low ± ATR multiplier buffer.
Take Profit: calculated from entry to SL distance, multiplied by user-defined RR ratio.
ATR value plotted for volatility reference.
Works on H1 charts for consistent candle timing.
Features:
Adjustable start/end session times.
Configurable ATR multiplier, RR ratio, and delay before entry.
Manual overrides for SL/TP levels.
Automatic daily reset for next session's logic.
Notes:
This tool is based on a classic session-reversion model enhanced with ATR-based filters, flexible timing, and manual overrides. It is designed for systematic execution and quick visual backtesting.

What It Detects:
This indicator identifies institutional traders (banks, hedge funds, market makers) by analyzing:
Volume Analysis
Detects unusual volume spikes that indicate large players entering
Compares current volume to 20-period average
Institutional trades create volume 2-5x normal levels
Order Flow
Delta: Difference between buying and selling volume
Positive delta = More buying pressure
Negative delta = More selling pressure
Institutions leave "footprints" in order flow
Price Action Patterns
Bullish Rejection Wicks:
| <- Small upper wick
|
███ <- Small body
███
|
|
| <- Large lower wick (rejection)
Indicates institutions bought aggressively at lower prices
Bearish Rejection Wicks:
|
|
| <- Large upper wick (rejection)
|
███ <- Small body
███
| <- Small lower wick
Indicates institutions sold aggressively at higher prices
Liquidity Grabs
Institutions often:
Push price above resistance or below support
Trigger stop losses (grab liquidity)
Reverse direction and trade the other way
Dark Pool Activity
Large block trades executed off-exchange:
High volume with minimal price movement
Indicates institutional accumulation/distribution without moving price
3. Signal Interpretation {#signals}
Signal Types:
🟢 INSTITUTIONAL BUY Signal
Appears as green triangle below candle with strength number (2-5)
What it means:
Institutions are actively accumulating (buying)
Higher strength = More confirmation factors
Strength Levels:
2-3: Moderate confidence - Wait for confirmation
4: High confidence - Strong institutional interest
5: Maximum confidence - Multiple factors aligned
🔴 INSTITUTIONAL SELL Signal
Appears as red triangle above candle with strength number (2-5)
What it means:
Institutions are actively distributing (selling)
Higher strength = More confirmation factors
🟠 Dark Pool (DP) Marker
Small orange diamond
What it means:
Large block trade executed
Accumulation/distribution happening quietly
Often precedes significant moves
Liquidity Zones
Red boxes above price = Resistance/sell liquidity
Green boxes below price = Support/buy liquidity
Institutions target these zones to trigger stops

Previous swing high or resistance
6. Best Practices {#best-practices}
✅ DO's:
1. Use Multiple Timeframes
Check higher timeframe for trend direction
Trade signals that align with higher timeframe
Example: 15m signals in direction of 1H trend
2. Combine with Key Levels
Support/resistance
Supply/demand zones
Previous day high/low
Round numbers (psychological levels)
3. Wait for Confirmation
Don't rush into trades
Let the signal candle close
Watch next candle for follow-through
4. Check the Metrics Table
Look at Relative Volume (should be >2.0)
Check Delta % (should be strong positive/negative)
Verify Order Flow aligns with signal
5. Consider Market Context
News events can override signals
Low liquidity times (lunch, overnight) less reliable
Major economic releases need caution
6. Paper Trade First
Test the indicator for 2-4 weeks
Learn how it behaves on your chosen assets
Develop confidence before using real money
Best Times to Trade:
Stock Market Hours:
9:30-11:30 AM EST (high volume, strong moves)
2:00-4:00 PM EST (institutional positioning)
Avoid: 11:30 AM-2:00 PM (lunch, low volume)
Forex:
London Open: 3:00-6:00 AM EST
New York Open: 8:00-11:00 AM EST
London/NY Overlap: 8:00 AM-12:00 PM EST
Crypto:
24/7 market, but highest volume during US/European hours
Watch for weekend low liquidity
7. Common Mistakes to Avoid {#mistakes}
❌ DON'T:
1. Trade Every Signal
Not all signals are equal
Focus on strength 4-5 signals
Wait for optimal setups
2. Ignore Market Structure
Don't buy into strong downtrends (catch falling knife)
Don't sell into strong uptrends (fight the tape)
Respect major support/resistance
3. Use Too Small Timeframes
1m and 2m charts are too noisy
Minimum recommended: 5m for scalping
Better: 15m, 30m, 1H for reliability
4. Overtrade
Quality over quantity
2-5 good trades per day is excellent
Forcing trades leads to losses
5. Ignore Risk Management
Always use stop losses
Risk only 1-2% per trade
Don't revenge trade after losses
6. Trade During Low Volume
Signals less reliable with low volume
Check Relative Volume metric (should be >1.5)
Avoid pre-market/after-hours for stocks
7. Misread Liquidity Grabs
Not every wick is a liquidity grab
Need volume confirmation
Must have institutional signal
Advanced Tips:
Filtering False Signals:
Use Signal Strength Filter:
Minimum strength 3 = Balanced
Minimum strength 4 = Conservative (recommended)
Minimum strength 5 = Ultra conservative
Confluence Checklist:
Signal strength ≥ 4
Relative volume > 2.0
At key support/resistance
Aligns with higher timeframe trend
Delta % strongly positive/negative
Clean price action setup
If 4+ boxes checked = High probability trade
Setting Up Alerts:
Click the three dots on the indicator
Select "Create Alert"
Choose condition:
"Institutional Buy Signal"
"Institutional Sell Signal"
"Dark Pool Activity"
Set up notification (email, SMS, app)
Save alert
Alert Strategy:
Set minimum strength to 4 for fewer, better alerts
Use for assets you can't watch constantly
Don't rely solely on alerts - check chart context
Practice Exercise:
Week 1-2: Observation
Add indicator to your favorite assets
Watch how signals develop
Note which ones lead to profitable moves
Don't trade yet - just observe
Week 3-4: Paper Trading
Use TradingView's paper trading
Trade only strength 4-5 signals
Record results in a journal
Note: entry, exit, profit/loss, what worked/didn't
Week 5+: Small Live Positions
Start with smallest position size
Trade only your best setups
Gradually increase size as you gain confidence
Keep detailed journal
Quick Reference Card:
Signal Quality Ranking:
🔥 Best Setups (Take These):
Strength 5 + Liquidity grab + Key level
Strength 4-5 + Volume >3.0 + Trend alignment
Dark Pool markers + Strength 4+ signal
✅ Good Setups:
Strength 4 at support/resistance
Strength 3-4 with strong delta
Liquidity grab + Strength 3+
⚠️ Caution (Wait for More):
Strength 2-3 in middle of nowhere
Against higher timeframe trend
Low volume (Rel Vol <1.5)
❌ Avoid:
Strength 2 only
During major news
Low liquidity hours
Against strong trend
Troubleshooting:
"Too many signals"
→ Increase Minimum Signal Strength to 4
→ Increase Volume Spike Multiplier to 2.5-3.0
"Too few signals"

Each session’s highs and lows are plotted clearly on the chart, giving traders a quick visual map of liquidity zones, potential breakout areas, and key market reactions. This helps traders identify high-probability areas where price may draw toward or reverse from, following ICT-style logic.
The indicator can also include an optional alarm at the 9:30 AM New York open, helping you stay aware of the most volatile and active trading period of the day.
Whether you’re trading indices, forex, or crypto, this tool provides a clean and ready-to-trade layout each morning — no manual drawing or guesswork needed. It’s especially useful for traders who study session highs/lows, liquidity grabs, and market structure shifts common in ICT-based strategies.
Ricco Bull Market Support BandBull Market Support Band (20W SMA + 21W EMA)
Overview:
The Bull Market Support Band combines the 20-week Simple Moving Average (SMA) and the 21-week Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to form a dynamic support and resistance zone. This concept is widely used in crypto analysis (especially for Bitcoin and Ethereum) to identify bull and bear market phases.
When price trades above the band, it indicates market strength and a potential continuation of a bull market. When price falls below the band, it often signals weakness and the start of a bear phase. When price oscillates within the band, it usually represents consolidation or a transition between trends.
How It Works:
Plots two moving averages: 20-week SMA and 21-week EMA
Shades the area between them to form a visual “support band”
Uses a selectable higher timeframe (weekly by default)
Works on any chart timeframe
Features:
User-selectable calculation timeframe (default: Weekly)
Customizable lengths, colors, and fill opacity
Optional bull/bear/neutral state labels
Built-in alert conditions:
- Price crosses above the band
- Price crosses below the band
- Price crosses either moving average line
On-chart legend showing live SMA and EMA values
Usage Tips:
Best used on higher timeframes (1D, 1W, 1M) for trend confirmation
In uptrends, the band often acts as dynamic support
In downtrends, it becomes resistance
Combine with momentum or volume indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD, OBV)
Works well with 200-day moving average or Fibonacci retracement levels for confluence
Interpretation Guide:
Above Band → Strong uptrend or bull market continuation
Within Band → Transition, consolidation, or neutral zone
Below Band → Downtrend or potential bear market

Concept inspired by the original Bull Market Support Band idea popularized in crypto market analysis.

Smart Money Volume Activity [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This tool visualizes how Smart Money and Retail participants behave through lower-timeframe volume analysis. It detects volume spikes far beyond normal activity, classifies them as institutional or retail, and projects those zones as reactive levels. The script updates dynamically with each bar, showing when large players enter while tracking whether those events remain profitable. Each event is drawn as a horizontal line with bubble markers and summarized in a live P/L table comparing Smart Money versus Retail.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The core logic uses Z-score normalization on lower-timeframe volumes (like 5m inside a 1h chart). This lets the script detect statistically extreme bursts of buying or selling activity. It classifies each detected event as:
Smart Money — volume inside the candle body (suggesting hidden accumulation or distribution)
Retail — volume closing at bar extremes (suggesting chase entries or panic exits)
When new events appear, the script plots them as horizontal levels that persist until price interacts again. Each level acts as a potential reaction zone or liquidity footprint. The integrated P/L table then measures which class (Retail or Smart Money) is currently “winning” — comparing cumulative profitable versus losing volume.
🟠 FEATURES
Classifies flows into Smart Money or Retail based on candle-body context.
Displays live P/L comparison table for Smart vs Retail performance.
Alerts for each detected Smart or Retail buy/sell event.
🟠 USAGE
Setup : Add the script to any chart. Set Lower Timeframe Value (e.g., “5” for 5m) smaller than your main chart timeframe. The Period input controls how many bars are analyzed for the Z-score baseline. The Threshold (|Z|) decides how extreme a volume must be to plot a level.
Read the chart : Horizontal lines mark where heavy Smart or Retail volume occurred. Bright bubbles show the strongest events — their size reflects Z-score intensity. The on-chart table updates live: green cells show profitable flows, red cells show losing flows. A dominant green Smart Money row suggests institutions are currently controlling price.
See what others are doing :
Settings that matter : Raising Threshold (|Z|) filters noise, showing only large players. Increasing Period smooths results but reacts slower to new bursts. Use Show = “Both” for full comparison or isolate “Smart Money” / “Retail” to focus on one class.

Trader Assistant 2 — Multi‑Timeframe ATR Volatility and Intrabar Range Monitor
Summary
Trader Assistant 2 is a compact, multi‑timeframe dashboard that helps you instantly gauge market conditions across 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, and 4h. It blends two ATR‑based views:
- Volatility regime: current ATR vs its baseline (ATR moving average).
- Intrabar range usage: how much of ATR the current bar has already traveled from its open.
Each timeframe is color‑coded by the worst of the two signals, so you see risk and heat at a glance. An optional lead cell summarizes active alerts and lists the timeframes that triggered them.
What you see on the chart
- Single‑row table positioned at the bottom‑right of the chart.
- One cell per enabled timeframe:
- Green (soft): normal conditions
- Orange: elevated risk/volatility
- Red: high/critical risk/volatility
- Text turns white when a warning/critical condition is present
- Optional “alert” cell on the left:
- Yellow when any warning is present
- Red when any critical condition is present
- Message indicates which timeframes fired due to Volatility and/or ATR usage (e.g., “Volatility (5m, 15m) | ATR (1m)”)
How it works (high level)
- Volatility regime: compares current ATR to a smoothed ATR baseline. If the ratio exceeds your Elevated or High thresholds, the timeframe escalates to orange or red.
- Intrabar ATR usage: measures absolute distance from the bar’s open. If the move exceeds your Yellow or Red percentage of ATR, the timeframe escalates accordingly.
- Combined color: the cell shows the highest severity between the two checks.

Inputs and defaults
- Timeframe toggles: 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h (enable/disable any mix)
- ATR periods per timeframe (defaults):
- 1m: 60
- 5m: 24
- 15m: 16
- 30m: 14
- 1h: 12
- 4h: 12
- ATR baseline smoothing:
- Moving average period: 20 (used to compare current ATR vs average)
- Volatility thresholds (percent of baseline):
- Elevated: 80%
- High: 120%
- Intrabar ATR usage thresholds:
- Yellow: 50% of ATR
- Red: 75% of ATR
Typical use cases
- Session open scan: Quickly see where heat is building and which timeframes require caution.
- News and high‑impact events: Identify heightened conditions before entering or managing positions.
- Trade filtering: Avoid entries during red conditions or tighten risk; favor normal/green regimes for cleaner structure.
- Risk sizing: Reduce size or switch to passive management when multiple timeframes show elevated/high conditions.
Tips and best practices
- Threshold tuning: Different markets/venues need different percentages. Start with defaults, then adjust to your symbol’s volatility.
- Baseline smoothing: Increase the MA period to reduce noise in the volatility regime.
- Multi‑TF alignment: When higher timeframes turn orange/red, treat lower‑TF signals with extra caution.
- Combine with structure and volume tools for a complete decision framework.
Notes and limitations
- Visual monitor: This is an on‑chart dashboard/visual alert. It does not emit TradingView alert() notifications.
- Multi‑timeframe behavior: Values update according to each source timeframe’s bar closes.
- Strategy‑agnostic: This does not generate buy/sell signals. Use it for context, regime awareness, and risk control.
- Educational only: Not financial advice. Always backtest and validate on your own instruments.
Color legend
- Green: Normal conditions
- Orange: Elevated volatility and/or significant intrabar range usage
- Red: High/critical conditions (exercise caution)
- Yellow alert cell: Warning present in at least one timeframe
- Red alert cell: Critical condition present in at least one timeframe
Quick start
1) Add the indicator to your chart.
2) Enable the timeframes relevant to your trading horizon.
3) Keep defaults or tune ATR periods and thresholds to your symbol.
4) Read the row from left to right: alert cell (if present), then timeframes. Prioritize management when you see orange/red, and be selective with entries during heat.
