Simple FVGSimple FVG - Fair Value Gap Indicator
Overview:
The "Simple FVG" script is designed for use with TradingView to identify and visually display Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on a trading chart. This indicator highlights both bullish and bearish imbalances based on specific candlestick patterns, helping traders to quickly identify potential trading opportunities.
Key Features:
Bullish and Bearish Imbalances:
Bullish Imbalances: This script identifies bullish imbalances where the price exhibits a gap upward. The conditions for detecting a bullish imbalance are:
The high of the second candle is greater than the high of the first candle.
The low of the third candle is greater than the high of the first candle.
Bearish Imbalances: This script identifies bearish imbalances where the price exhibits a gap downward. The conditions for detecting a bearish imbalance are:
The low of the second candle is less than the low of the first candle.
The high of the third candle is less than the low of the first candle.
Customizable Display:
Bullish Blocks: Users can toggle the display of bullish imbalance blocks with customizable colors and border settings.
Bearish Blocks: Users can toggle the display of bearish imbalance blocks with customizable colors and border settings.
Color and Border Settings: Adjust the color, border color, and border width of the blocks for both bullish and bearish imbalances according to user preferences.
Visual Representation:
Drawing Blocks: The script draws filled boxes on the chart to represent identified imbalances. These blocks span from the start of the first candlestick to the end of the third candlestick, providing a clear visual indicator of the price gap.
How It Works:
Identification Logic:
The script analyzes three consecutive candles to determine if an imbalance exists.
It compares the highs and lows of these candles to establish bullish or bearish conditions.
Drawing Mechanism:
Once an imbalance condition is met, the script calculates the top and bottom levels of the imbalance block based on the high of the first candle and the low of the third candle for bullish imbalances, and vice versa for bearish imbalances.
It then draws these blocks on the chart using the specified colors and border settings.

BINANCE-BYBIT Cross Chart: Spot-Perpetual CorrelationName: "Binance-Bybit Cross Chart: Spot-Perpetual Correlation"
Category: Scalping, Trend Analysis
Timeframe: 1M, 5M, 30M, 1D (depending on the specific technique)
Technical analysis: This indicator facilitates a comparison between the price movements shown on the Binance spot chart and the Bybit perpetual chart, with the aim of discerning the correlation between the two charts and identifying the dominant market trends. It automatically generates the corresponding chart based on the ticker selected in the primary chart. When a Binance pair is selected in the main chart, the indicator replicates the Bybit perpetual chart for the same pair and timeframe, and vice versa, selecting the Bybit perpetual chart as the primary chart generates the Binance spot chart.
Suggested use: You can utilize this tool to conduct altcoin trading on Binance or Bybit, facilitating the comparison of price actions and real-time monitoring of trigger point sensitivity across both exchanges. We recommend prioritizing the Binance Spot chart in the main panel due to its typically longer historical data availability compared to Bybit.
The primary objective is to efficiently and automatically manage the following three aspects:
- Data history analysis for higher timeframes, leveraging the extensive historical data of the Binance spot market. Variations in indicators such as slow moving averages may arise due to differences in historical data between exchanges.
- Assessment of coin liquidity on both exchanges by observing candlestick consistency on smaller timeframes or the absence of gaps. In the crypto market, clean charts devoid of gaps indicate dominance and offer enhanced reliability.
- Identification of precise trigger point levels, including daily, previous day, or previous week highs and lows, which serve as sensitive areas for breakout or reversal operations.
All-Time High (ATH) and All-Time Low (ATL) levels may vary significantly across exchanges due to disparities in historical data series.

This indicator, named "Adjustable Bull Bear Candle Indicator ," is designed to assist traders in identifying potential bullish and bearish signals within price charts. It combines candlestick pattern analysis, moving average crossovers, and RSI (Relative Strength Index) conditions to offer insights into potential trading opportunities.
Disclaimer:
Trading involves substantial risk and is not suitable for every investor. This indicator is a tool designed to aid in technical analysis, but it does not guarantee successful trades. Always exercise your own judgment and seek professional advice before making any trading decisions.
Key Features:
Preceding Candles Analysis:
The indicator examines the behavior of the previous 'n' candles to identify specific patterns that indicate bearish or bullish momentum.
Candlestick Pattern and Momentum:
It considers the relationship between the opening and closing prices of the current candle to determine if it's bullish or bearish. The indicator then assesses the absolute price difference and compares it to the cumulative absolute differences of preceding candles.
Moving Averages:
The indicator calculates two Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) – Close SMA and Far SMA – to help identify trends and crossovers in price movement.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
RSI is used as an additional measure to gauge momentum. It analyzes the current price's magnitude of recent gains and losses and compares it to past data.

Consultation: It's strongly advised to consult with a financial professional before making any trading decisions.
Conclusion:
The "Bullish Candle after Bearish Candles with Momentum Indicator" can be a valuable tool in your technical analysis toolkit. However, successful trading requires a deep understanding of market dynamics, risk management, and continual learning. Use this indicator in conjunction with other tools and strategies to enhance your trading decisions.
Remember that past performance is not indicative of future results. Always be cautious and informed when participating in the financial markets.
Buying & Selling PressureBuying and selling pressure is a volatility indicator which denotes the balance between buyers and sellers inside candlestick.
You set the length to average it just like ATR. But This offers further break down of participants of the market.
Pretty much at any condition of the market the indicator can filter out interesting details to make trading decisions faster or confirm them.
So keep it simple we have two lines
🟢 Green → buying pressure
🔴 Red → selling pressure
If green is rising → Price most likely will grow
If green is rising and red is falling → Price will grow at higher probability
If red is rising → Price most likely will fall
If red is rising and green is falling → Price will fall at higher probability
When they both grow or fall → wait till one of them goes opposite way.
╳ Crossings can indicate turning points for bigger price swings.
Technically by very act of intersecting means that Buying and Selling Pressure are equal.
Can be used for Demand/Supply analysis and evaluate the support/resistance levels.
Smart labelling - Candlestick FunctionOftentimes a single look at the candlestick configuration happens to be enough to understand what is going on. The chandlestick function is an experiment in smart labelling that produces candles for various time frames, not only for the fixed 1m, 3m , 5m, 15m, etc. ones, and helps in decision-making when eye-balling the chart. This function generates up to 12 last candlesticks , which is generally more than enough.
Mind that since this is an experiment, the function does not cover all possible combinations. In some time frames the produced candles overlap. This is a todo item for those who are unterested. For instance, the current version covers the following TFs:
Chart - TF in the script
1m - 1-20,24,30,32
3m - 1-10
5m - 1-4,6,9,12,18,36
15m - 1-4,6,12
Tested chart TFs: 1m, 3m ,5m,15m. Tested securities: BTCUSD , EURUSD
LTF Distribution Analyzer█ OVERVIEW
LTF Distribution Analyzer reveals the hidden price distribution and order flow within each candle by sampling lower timeframe data. It visualizes where prices concentrated, how volume was distributed between buyers and sellers, and identifies divergences between price action and actual market participation.
Unlike traditional candlesticks showing only OHLC, this indicator exposes the statistical structure of price movement using quartile-based visualization combined with delta analysis.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator is built on two core concepts:
1 — Statistical Price Distribution
Each candle contains many lower timeframe bars. By analyzing these bars, we calculate:
• Q1 (25th percentile) - 25% of prices traded below this level
• Q3 (75th percentile) - 75% of prices traded below this level
• Median - The middle price value
• IQR (Interquartile Range) - The Q3-Q1 spread containing 50% of all prices
2 — Volume Delta Analysis
Delta measures buying vs selling pressure:
• Delta = Buy Volume − Sell Volume
• Positive delta = More aggressive buying
• Negative delta = More aggressive selling
• Delta Ratio normalizes this as a percentage
█ HOW IT WORKS
The indicator fetches lower timeframe data using request.security_lower_tf() and processes it to create a statistical summary:
Step 1: Timeframe Calculation
• Auto mode: Chart timeframe ÷ Auto Divisor = LTF
• Example: 1H chart ÷ 1000 = ~3.6 second sampling
• Manual mode: User-specified timeframe
Step 2: Data Collection
• Collects all close prices from LTF bars within current candle
• Aggregates volume by candle direction (bullish/bearish)
Step 3: Statistical Analysis
• Calculates quartiles (Q1, Q3), median, and boundaries
• Identifies outliers using 1.5× and 3× IQR fences
• Finds Volume POC (price with highest volume)
Step 4: Delta Calculation
• Sums buy volume (from bullish LTF bars)
• Sums sell volume (from bearish LTF bars)
• Computes delta ratio for color determination
█ VISUAL ELEMENTS

█ COLOR SYSTEM
Colors indicate the relationship between candle direction and order flow:
🟢 TEAL (Positive Flow)
Bullish candle + Positive delta
→ Strong buying confirmation
→ Trend continuation signal
🔴 RED (Negative Flow)
Bearish candle + Negative delta
→ Strong selling confirmation
→ Trend continuation signal
🟠 ORANGE (Mixed Signal A)
Bullish candle + Negative delta
→ Price up but sellers dominated
→ Potential weakness/reversal warning
🔵 BLUE (Mixed Signal B)
Bearish candle + Positive delta
→ Price down but buyers dominated
→ Potential accumulation/reversal signal
█ SETTINGS
Timeframe Settings
• LTF Mode — Auto or Manual selection
• Manual Timeframe — Specific LTF when in Manual mode
• Auto Divisor — Higher = finer granularity (default: 1000)
• Allow Sub-Minute — Requires Premium subscription

█ HOW TO USE
1. Divergence Detection
Look for color mismatches:
• Orange bars in uptrend = weakness, potential reversal
• Blue bars in downtrend = strength, potential reversal
• Multiple consecutive divergent bars strengthen signal
• Wait for confirmation before entry
2. Volume POC Trading
• POC marks where most volume traded
• POC clusters at similar levels = strong S/R zone
• Price often returns to POC before continuing
• Use POC for entry/exit targeting
3. Trend Confirmation
• Consecutive teal = strong uptrend
• Consecutive red = strong downtrend
• Median position shows intrabar momentum
• Wide boxes indicate high volatility
4. Outlier Analysis
• Extreme markers (▲▼) often mark stop hunts
• Consider fading extremes at key levels
• Mild markers (△▽) = areas to watch
█ RECOMMENDED SETTINGS
For different chart timeframes:
│ Chart TF │ Auto Divisor │ Resulting LTF │
├──────────┼──────────────┼───────────────┤
│ 15M │ 1500 │ ~1M │
│ 1H │ 1000 │ ~3-4s │
│ 4H │ 600 │ ~24s │
│ Daily │ 500 │ ~2-3M │
Tip: Check the TF badge to confirm active sampling timeframe.
█ BEST PRACTICES
Do:
✓ Use "Bars" chart style for cleanest display
✓ Combine with support/resistance analysis
✓ Wait for confirmation bars
✓ Note POC clusters across multiple bars
✓ Adjust divisor based on your timeframe
Avoid:
✗ Trading single bar signals alone
✗ Using during low volume periods
✗ Trading immediately after news releases
✗ Ignoring overall market context
█ LIMITATIONS
• Requires adequate market liquidity for reliable signals
• Sub-minute timeframes need Premium subscription
• Historical data depth depends on TradingView's data availability
• Delta calculation assumes volume direction matches candle direction
█ NOTES
This indicator works best on liquid markets (forex majors, major indices, popular stocks/crypto) where volume data is meaningful.

Realtime Squeeze Box [CHE] Realtime Squeeze Box — Detects lowvolatility consolidation periods and draws trimmed price range boxes in realtime to highlight potential breakout setups without clutter from outliers.
Summary
This indicator identifies "squeeze" phases where recent price volatility falls below a dynamic baseline threshold, signaling potential energy buildup for directional moves. By requiring a minimum number of consecutive bars in squeeze, it reduces noise from fleeting dips, making signals more reliable than simple threshold crosses. The core innovation is realtime box visualization: during active squeezes, it builds and updates a box capturing the price range while ignoring extreme values via quantile trimming, providing a cleaner view of consolidation bounds. This differs from static volatility bands by focusing on trimmed ranges and suppressing overlapping boxes, which helps traders spot genuine setups amid choppy markets. Overall, it aids in anticipating breakouts by combining volatility filtering with visual containment of price action.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traders often face whipsaws during brief volatility lulls that mimic true consolidations, leading to premature entries, or miss setups because standard volatility measures lag in adapting to changing market regimes. This design addresses that by using a hold requirement on consecutive lowvolatility bars to denoise signals, ensuring only sustained squeezes trigger visuals. The core idea—comparing rolling standard deviation to a smoothed baseline—creates a responsive yet stable filter for lowenergy periods, while the trimmed box approach isolates the core price cluster, making it easier to gauge breakout potential without distortion from spikes.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Traditional squeeze indicators like the Bollinger Band Squeeze or TTM Squeeze rely on fixed multiples of bands or momentum oscillators crossing zero, which can fire on isolated bars or ignore range compression nuances.
Architecture differences:
Realtime box construction that updates barbybar during squeezes, using arrays to track and trim price values.
Quantilebased outlier rejection to define box bounds, focusing on the bulk of prices rather than full range.
Overlap suppression logic that skips redundant boxes if the new range intersects heavily with the prior one.
Hold counter for consecutive bar validation, adding persistence before signaling.
Practical effect: Charts show fewer, more defined orange boxes encapsulating tight price action, with a horizontal line extension marking the midpoint postsqueeze—visibly reducing clutter in sideways markets and highlighting "coiled" ranges that standard plots might blur with full highs/lows. This matters for quicker visual scanning of multitimeframe setups, as boxes selflimit to recent history and avoid piling up.
How it works (technical)
The indicator starts by computing a rolling average and standard deviation over a userdefined length on the chosen source price series. This deviation measure is then smoothed into a baseline using either a simple or exponential average over a longer window, serving as a reference for normal volatility. A squeeze triggers when the current deviation dips below this baseline scaled by a multiplier less than one, but only after a minimum number of consecutive bars confirm it, which resets the counter on breaks.
Upon squeeze start, it clears a buffer and begins collecting source prices barbybar, limited to the first few bars to keep computation light. For visualization, if enabled, it sorts the buffer and finds a quantile threshold, then identifies the minimum value at or below that threshold to set upper and lower box bounds—effectively clamping the range to exclude tails above the quantile. The box draws from the start bar to the current one, updating its right edge and levels dynamically; if the new bounds overlap significantly with the last completed box, it suppresses drawing to avoid redundancy.
Once the hold limit or squeeze ends, the box freezes: its final bounds become the last reference, a midpoint line extends rightward from the end, and a tiny circle label marks the point. Buffers and states reset on new squeezes, with historical boxes and lines capped to prevent overload. All logic runs on every bar but uses confirmed historical data for calculations, with realtime updates only affecting the active box's position—no future peeking occurs. Initialization seeds with null values, building states progressively from the first bars.
Parameter Guide
Source: Selects the price series (e.g., close, hl2) for deviation and box building; influences sensitivity to wicks or bodies. Default: close. Tradeoffs/Tips: Use hl2 for balanced range view in volatile assets; stick to close for pure directional focus—test on your timeframe to avoid oversmoothing trends.
Length (Mean/SD): Sets window for average and deviation calculation; shorter values make detection quicker but noisier. Default: 20. Tradeoffs/Tips: Increase to 30+ for stability in higher timeframes, reducing false starts; below 10 risks overreacting to singlebar noise.
Baseline Length: Defines smoothing window for the deviation baseline; longer periods create a steadier reference, filtering regime shifts. Default: 50. Tradeoffs/Tips: Pair with Length at 1:2 ratio for calm markets; shorten to 30 if baselines lag during fast volatility drops, but watch for added whips.
Squeeze Multiplier (<1.0): Scales the baseline downward to set the squeeze threshold; lower values tighten criteria for rarer, stronger signals. Default: 0.8. Tradeoffs/Tips: Tighten to 0.6 for highvol assets like crypto to cut noise; loosen to 0.9 in forex for more frequent but shallower setups—balances hit rate vs. depth.
Baseline via EMA (instead of SMA): Switches baseline smoothing to exponential for faster adaptation to recent changes vs. equalweighted simple average. Default: false. Tradeoffs/Tips: Enable in trending markets for quicker baseline drops; disable for uniform history weighting in rangebound conditions to avoid overreacting.
SD: Sample (len1) instead of Population (len): Adjusts deviation formula to divide by length minus one for smallsample bias correction, slightly inflating values. Default: false. Tradeoffs/Tips: Use sample in short windows (<20) for more conservative thresholds; population suits long looks where bias is negligible, keeping signals tighter.
Min. Hold Bars in Squeeze: Requires this many consecutive squeeze bars before confirming; higher denoise but may clip early setups. Default: 1. Tradeoffs/Tips: Bump to 35 for intraday to filter ticks; keep at 1 for swings where quick consolidations matter—trades off timeliness for reliability.
Debug: Plot SD & Threshold: Toggles lines showing raw deviation and threshold for visual backtesting of squeeze logic. Default: false. Tradeoffs/Tips: Enable during tuning to eyeball crossovers; disable live to declutter—great for verifying multiplier impact without alerts.
Tint Bars when Squeeze Active: Overlays semitransparent color on bars during open box phases for quick squeeze spotting. Default: false. Tradeoffs/Tips: Pair with low opacity for subtlety; turn off if using boxes alone, as tint can obscure candlesticks in dense charts.
Tint Opacity (0..100): Controls background tint strength during active squeezes; higher values darken for emphasis. Default: 85. Tradeoffs/Tips: Dial to 60 for light touch; max at 100 risks hiding price action—adjust per chart theme for visibility.
Stored Price (during Squeeze): Price series captured in the buffer for box bounds; defaults to source but allows customization. Default: close. Tradeoffs/Tips: Switch to high/low for wider boxes in gappy markets; keep close for midline focus—impacts trim effectiveness on outliers.
Quantile q (0..1): Fraction of sorted prices below which tails are cut; higher q keeps more data but risks including spikes. Default: 0.718. Tradeoffs/Tips: Lower to 0.5 for aggressive trim in noisy assets; raise to 0.8 for fuller ranges—tune via debug to match your consolidation depth.
Box Fill Color: Sets interior shade of squeeze boxes; semitransparent for layering. Default: orange (80% trans.). Tradeoffs/Tips: Soften with more transparency in multiindicator setups; bold for standalone use—ensures boxes pop without overwhelming.
Box Border Color: Defines outline hue and solidity for box edges. Default: orange (0% trans.). Tradeoffs/Tips: Match fill for cohesion or contrast for edges; thin width keeps it clean—helps delineate bounds in zoomed views.
Keep Last N Boxes: Limits historical boxes/lines/labels to this count, deleting oldest for performance. Default: 10. Tradeoffs/Tips: Increase to 50 for weekly reviews; set to 0 for unlimited (risks lag)—balances history vs. speed on long charts.
Draw Box in Realtime (build/update): Enables live extension of boxes during squeezes vs. waiting for end. Default: true. Tradeoffs/Tips: Disable for confirmedonly views to mimic backtests; enable for proactive trading—adds minor repaint on live bars.
Box: Max First N Bars: Caps buffer collection to initial squeeze bars, freezing after for efficiency. Default: 15. Tradeoffs/Tips: Shorten to 510 for fast intraday; extend to 20 in dailies—prevents bloated arrays but may truncate long squeezes.
Reading & Interpretation
Squeeze phases appear as orange boxes encapsulating the trimmed price cluster during lowvolatility holds—narrow boxes signal tight consolidations, while wider ones indicate looser ranges within the threshold. The box's top and bottom represent the quantilecapped high and low of collected prices, with the interior fill shading the containment zone; ignore extremes outside for "true" bounds. Postsqueeze, a solid horizontal line extends right from the box's midpoint, acting as a reference level for potential breakout tests—drifting prices toward or away from it can hint at building momentum. Tiny orange circles at the line's start mark completion points for easy scanning. Debug lines (if on) show deviation hugging or crossing the threshold, confirming hold logic; a persistent hug below suggests prolonged calm, while spikes above reset counters.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Enter long on squeezeend close above the box top (or midpoint line) confirmed by higher high in structure; filter with rising 50period average to avoid countertrend traps. Use boxes as support/resistance proxies—short below bottom in downtrends.
Exits/Stops: Trail stops to the box midpoint during postsqueeze runs for conservative holds; go aggressive by exiting on retest of opposite box side. If debug shows repeated threshold grazes, tighten stops to curb drawdowns in ranging followups.
Multiasset/MultiTF: Defaults work across stocks, forex, and crypto on 15min+ frames; scale Length proportionally (e.g., x2 on hourly). Layer with highertimeframe boxes for confluence—e.g., daily squeeze + 1H box for entry timing. (Unknown/Optional: Specific multiTF scaling recipes beyond proportional adjustment.)
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: Core calculations use historical closes, confirming on bar close; active boxes repaint their right edge and levels live during squeezes if enabled, but freeze irrevocably on hold limit or end—mitigates via barbybar buffer adds without future leaks. No lookahead indexes.
security()/HTF: None used, so no external timeframe repaints; all native to chart resolution.
Resources: Caps at 300 boxes/lines/labels total; small arrays (up to 20 elements) and short loops in sorting/minfinding keep it light—suitable for 10k+ bar charts without throttling. Persistent variables track state across bars efficiently.
Known limits: May lag on ultrasharp volatility spikes due to baseline smoothing; gaps or thin markets can skew trims if buffer hits cap early; overlaps suppress visuals but might hide chained squeezes—(Unknown/Optional: Edge cases in nonstandard sessions).
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with defaults for most liquid assets on 1Hdaily: Length 20, Multiplier 0.8, Hold 1, Quantile 0.718—yields balanced detection without excess noise. For too many false starts (choppy charts), increase Hold to 3 and Baseline Length to 70 for stricter confirmation, reducing signals by 3050%. If squeezes feel sluggish or miss quick coils, shorten Length to 14 and enable EMA baseline for snappier adaptation, but monitor for added flips. In highvol environments like options, tighten Multiplier to 0.6 and Quantile to 0.6 to focus on core ranges; reverse for calm pairs by loosening to 0.95. Always backtest tweaks on your asset's history.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a volatilityfiltered visualization tool for spotting and bounding consolidation phases, best as a signal layer atop price action and trend filters—not a standalone predictor of direction or strength. It highlights setups but ignores volume, momentum, or news context, so pair with discreteness rules like higher highs/lows. Never use it alone for entries; always layer risk management, such as 12% stops beyond box extremes, and position sizing based on account drawdown tolerance.

Intelligent Currency Breakout ChannelIndicator: Intelligent Currency Breakout Channel
This document provides a detailed explanation of the "Intelligent Currency Breakout Channel" indicator for TradingView.
1. Overview
The Intelligent Currency Breakout Channel is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to identify periods of price consolidation and signal potential breakouts. It automatically draws channels around ranging price action and utilizes sophisticated volume analysis to provide deeper insights into market sentiment. The indicator also includes a built-in logarithmic regression screener to help traders align their breakout signals with the broader market trend.
2. Key Features
Automatic Channel Detection: The indicator identifies periods of low volatility and automatically draws a containing channel (box) around the price action.
Breakout Signals: It generates clear visual alerts (▲ for bullish, ▼ for bearish) when the price closes decisively outside of a channel.
In-Depth Volume Analysis: Within each channel, the indicator plots volume as candlestick-like bars, offering three distinct modes: Total Volume, Buy/Sell Comparison, and Volume Delta. This helps traders gauge the strength and conviction behind price movements.
Real-time Sentiment Gauge: When a channel is active, a dynamic color-graded gauge appears on the right side of the chart. It visualizes the current volume delta momentum relative to its recent range, offering an at-a-glance sentiment reading.
Integrated Trend Screener: A secondary analysis tool based on logarithmic regression is included to determine the underlying trend direction (Up, Down, or Neutral), which can be used to filter breakout signals.
Fully Customizable: Users can extensively customize all parameters, from calculation lengths and breakout sensitivity to the visual appearance of every component.
3. How to Use
Channel Formation: Watch for the indicator to draw a new channel. This signifies that the market is in a consolidation or ranging phase. The formation of a channel itself can be an alertable event.
Volume Interpretation: Observe the volume bars inside the channel. An increase in volume as the price approaches the channel's upper or lower boundary can foreshadow a potential breakout. Use the Volume Display Mode to analyze if buying pressure (Comparison, Delta) or selling pressure is building.
Breakout Confirmation: A bullish breakout signal (▲) appears when the price closes above the channel's upper boundary. A bearish breakout signal (▼) appears when the price closes below the lower boundary. For higher-quality signals, enable the Strong Closes Only option.
Trend Confirmation (Screener): Use the screener's plot and background color to confirm the broader trend. For instance, you might choose to only take bullish breakout signals when the screener indicates an uptrend (green background) and bearish signals when it indicates a downtrend (red background).
Sentiment Gauge: The pointer on the gauge indicates current momentum. A pointer in the upper (green) section suggests bullish pressure, while a pointer in the lower (red) section suggests bearish pressure. This can provide additional confluence for a trade decision.
4. Settings and Inputs
Main Settings
Overlap Channels: If enabled, allows multiple channels to be drawn on the chart simultaneously, even if they overlap. When disabled, a new channel will only form if it doesn't intersect with an existing one.
Strong Closes Only: If enabled, a breakout is only triggered if the midpoint of the candle's body (average of open and close) is outside the channel. This helps filter out false signals caused by long wicks. If disabled, any close outside the channel triggers a breakout.
Normalization Length: The lookback period (in bars) used for price normalization. A higher value creates a more stable normalization but may be slower to react to recent price changes.
Box Detection Length: The lookback period used to detect the channel formation pattern. A lower value will result in more frequent channels but may be more sensitive to noise. A higher value will result in fewer, but potentially more significant, channels.
Volume Analysis
Show Volume Analysis: Toggles the visibility of the candlestick-like volume bars inside the channel.
Volume Display Mode:
Volume: Displays total volume as symmetrical bars around the channel's midline.
Comparison: Shows buying volume (green) above the midline and selling volume (red) below it.
Delta: Shows the net difference between buying and selling volume. Positive delta is shown above the midline, and negative delta is shown below.
Volume Delta Timeframe Source: The timeframe from which to source volume data for calculations. Using a lower timeframe can provide a more granular view of volume dynamics.
Volume Scaling: A multiplier that adjusts the vertical size of the volume bars relative to the channel's height.
Appearance
Volume Text Size: Sets the size of the volume data text displayed in the corners of the channel. Options: Tiny, Small, Medium, Large.
Bullish Color: The primary color for all bullish visual elements, including breakout signals and positive volume bars.
Bearish Color: The primary color for all bearish visual elements, including breakout signals and negative volume bars.
Screener Settings
Lookback Period: The number of bars used for the logarithmic regression calculation to determine the trend.
Screener Type:
Log Regression Channel: The signal is based on the slope of the entire regression channel over the lookback period. An upward sloping channel is bullish (1), and a downward sloping one is bearish (-1).
Logarithmic Regression: The signal is based on the most recent value of the regression line compared to its value 3 bars ago. This provides a more responsive measure of the immediate trend.
5. Alerts
You can set up the following alerts through the TradingView alerts panel:
New Channel Formed: Triggers when a new price consolidation channel is detected and drawn on the chart.
Bullish Breakout: Triggers when the price breaks out and closes above the upper boundary of a channel.
Bearish Breakout: Triggers when the price breaks out and closes below the lower boundary of a channel.
Is In Channel: Triggers on every bar that the price is currently trading inside an active channel.
Signal UP: Triggers when the Screener's signal turns bullish (1).
Signal DOWN: Triggers when the Screener's signal turns bearish (-1).

4 Flags Whale PatternThis indicator detects a unique 4-bar candlestick pattern characterized by alternating bullish and bearish candles (or vice versa), where all four candles have similar body sizes within a specified tolerance.
Usage:
This pattern may indicate a consolidation phase or a potential breakout zone after indecisive price action. Traders can use it to anticipate a directional move following the "tug-of-war" between buyers and sellers.
VWAP Predictive Breakout + RSI + OB + Trend/Chop📈 VWAP Predictive Breakout + RSI + Order Blocks + Trend/Chop Filter
This multi-layered day trading and scalping tool is designed to predict price direction after a VWAP breakout, rather than react to it. It combines volume, RSI, candlestick structure, order blocks, and trend/chop analysis to improve the accuracy of intraday signals.
🔍 Core Features
VWAP Predictive Breakout
Signals are generated when price breaks above/below VWAP with strength (volume spike + strong candle body), supported by trend confirmation.
RSI Momentum Filter
Uses RSI divergence behavior to validate breakouts, filtering out weak or exhausted moves.
Order Block Detection
Marks bullish and bearish engulfing patterns and checks for proximity to these zones as confirmation for breakouts.
Trend vs Chop Detection
Uses ADX, ATR, EMA distance, Bollinger Band width, and candlestick cleanliness to dynamically identify whether the market is trending or choppy.
Clean Candle Behavior
Filters out noisy or indecisive candles by analyzing wick-to-body ratio and ATR-based body size.
📌 Visual Markers
🟢 Buy Signal: Green triangle below bar
🔴 Sell Signal: Red triangle above bar
🟢⚪ Bullish Order Block: Green circle
🔴⚪ Bearish Order Block: Red circle
🟩 Trending Background: Light green
🟥 Choppy Background: Light red
🛎 Alerts Included
Long signal: VWAP breakout + RSI + Order Block + Clean Candle
Short signal: VWAP breakdown + RSI + Order Block + Clean Candle
🧠 Best Use Cases
Scalping high-probability VWAP reversals or continuations
Day trading in markets where trend clarity is critical
Filtering noise in sideways conditions using real-time chop detection
Highlight Candle Body ≤ 10 Ticks (Clean & Subtle)Purpose:
This indicator highlights candlesticks where the body size (difference between open and close) is 10 ticks or less, specifically for instruments like Crude Oil futures (CL) where 1 tick = 0.01.
How it works:
It calculates the body size: abs(close - open)
If the body is ≤ 0.10 (10 ticks), the candle is softly colored in muted orange.
Wicks are ignored — only the body is considered.
No additional shapes or markers — clean and minimal.
Use case:
Helps identify periods of indecision or low momentum — such as potential pause candles, traps, or setups just before volatility returns.
Falcon SignalsThis script is a TradingView Pine Script for a trading strategy called "Falcon Signals." It combines multiple technical indicators and strategies to generate buy and sell signals. Here’s a breakdown of what the script does:
1. Supertrend Indicator:
The script calculates the Supertrend indicator using the Average True Range (ATR) and a specified multiplier (factor). The Supertrend is used to define the trend direction, with a green line for an uptrend and a red line for a downtrend.
2. EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
Two EMAs are used: a fast EMA (9-period) and a slow EMA (21-period). The script checks for crossovers of the fast EMA above or below the slow EMA as a basis for buying and selling signals.
3. RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI (14-period) is used to measure the momentum of the price. A buy signal is generated when the RSI is less than 70, while a sell signal is generated when it’s greater than 30.
4. Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL):
The script allows users to set custom percentages for take profit and stop loss. The take profit is set at a certain percentage above the entry price for buy signals, and the stop loss is set at a percentage below the entry price, and vice versa for sell signals.
5. Trailing Stop:
A trailing stop can be enabled, which dynamically adjusts the stop loss level as the price moves in the favorable direction. If the price moves against the position by a certain trailing percentage, the position will be closed.
6. Engulfing Patterns:
The script checks for bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick patterns, indicating potential reversals. A bullish engulfing pattern is marked with a teal label ("🔄 Reversal Up"), and a bearish engulfing pattern is marked with a fuchsia label ("🔄 Reversal Down").
7. Plotting:
The script plots various indicators and signals:
Entry line: Shows where the buy or sell signal is triggered.
Take profit and stop loss levels are plotted as lines.
EMA and Supertrend lines are plotted on the chart.
Trailing stop line, if enabled, is also plotted.
8. Buy and Sell Labels:
The script places labels on the chart when buy or sell signals are triggered, indicating the price at which the order should be placed.
9. Exit Line:
The script plots an exit line when the trailing stop is hit, signaling when a position should be closed.
10. Alerts:
Alerts are set for both buy and sell signals, notifying the trader when to act based on the strategy's conditions.
This strategy combines trend-following (Supertrend), momentum (RSI), and price action patterns (EMA crossovers and engulfing candlestick patterns) to generate trade signals. It also offers the flexibility of take profit, stop loss, and trailing stop features.
Engulfing Candle PatternIndicator Overview
This indicator identifies Bullish and Bearish Engulfing candlestick patterns on a price chart. These patterns are reversal signals:
Bullish Engulfing: Occurs during a downtrend, where a bullish candle fully engulfs the body of the previous bearish candle.
Bearish Engulfing: Occurs during an uptrend, where a bearish candle fully engulfs the body of the previous bullish candle.
Key Features
1. Pattern Detection:
Detects Bullish Engulfing and Bearish Engulfing patterns based on candle body comparisons.
Uses the current and previous candle's open/close prices to determine engulfing conditions.
2. Visualization:
Plots labels on the chart:
" Bullish Engulfing " below the candle for bullish patterns.
" Bearish Engulfing " above the candle for bearish patterns.
3. Alerts:
Triggers alerts when either pattern is detected, allowing traders to take action.
How It Works
Bullish Engulfing Condition:
Current candle is bullish (close > open).
Previous candle is bearish (close < open).
Current candle's body fully engulfs the previous candle's body.
Bearish Engulfing Condition:
- Current candle is bearish (close < open).
- Previous candle is bullish (close > open).
- Current candle's body fully engulfs the previous candle's body.
Usage
- Apply the script to any chart in TradingView.
- Look for " Bullish Engulfing " or " Bearish Engulfing " labels on the chart.
- Set up alerts to get notified when these patterns form.
This indicator is a simple yet effective tool for identifying potential trend reversals using engulfing candlestick patterns.
Volume candle by MoondIndicator Description: Equal Volume Candle Chart
This indicator creates a real-time candlestick chart where each candle forms upon the completion of a specific volume threshold, rather than within fixed time intervals. The candles update dynamically based on the total volume traded, providing a unique perspective that incorporates market activity directly into price movements.
Key Features:
Dynamic Candles Based on Volume: Candles form when a defined lot size of volume is reached, making each candle represent consistent trading activity rather than a fixed time period.
Customizable Volume Lot Size: Users can easily adjust the volume threshold to suit different trading styles or asset classes.
Real-Time Market Reflection: The chart responds to changes in market volume, offering a clearer view of market intensity and momentum.
Concept Behind the Indicator: Traditional candlestick charts operate on time intervals, which can ignore the influence of volume in price changes. By basing the candle formation on equal volumes, this indicator integrates both price and traded volume into the visual representation, helping traders capture key shifts in market sentiment and activity that might be missed on time-based charts
Candle Body Support/Resistance [LuxAlgo]The Candle Body Support/Resistance indicator is a tool that provides Support/Resistance levels from high-volatility candles, a concept originally described by Steve Nison in "Beyond Candlesticks".
Users can define the candle body percentage used to set the detected support/resistance levels. Occurrences of price testing the returned levels are highlighted using user-customizable dots.
🔶 USAGE
Support/Resistance levels are drawn from volatile candles, that is candles having a body (range between opening and closing price) whose magnitude is larger than the Volatility Threshold , which is determined by the multiplicative factor of an ATR (Average True Range) using a user set length.
The level starts from the opening price +/- a percentage of the open-close range. Users can adjust the percentage of the candle body used as support/resistance levels respectively, with higher percentage values returning levels prone to get reached sooner by the price.
A test is considered valid when a wick passes through the Support/Resistance level while the closing price is not breaking it.
Two modes are included, Trailing and Historical , both affecting the displayed elements of the indicator, these are described in the sub-section below.
🔹 Historical
The Historical Mode will draw a separate line from every Volatile Candle . When this line is tested, a dot will be drawn.
In the above example, the red resistance line was tested once until a bullish volatile candle formed, which closed just below the resistance level. The resistance level was tested again, after which the newly created support level was broken quickly, and the price decreased. These levels proved helpful later, acting as resistance/support levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
To prevent cluttering Support/Resistance , lines will be deleted when the line is mitigated and hasn't been tested.
When a Support/Resistance line reaches its Maximum Line Length , it will also be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔹 Trailing
When a new volatile candle of the same type (bullish/bearish) appears while the Support/Resistance isn't broken, this line will be updated with the values of the new volatile candle. This creates a trailing line and a less cluttered chart.
Unlike the Historical mode , a line will not be deleted after a while or when it is mitigated. Instead, the line won't be updated anymore. A new line will start from the next found volatile candle.
Using the same situation as the Historical Mode example, we can note the future significance of old support/resistance levels (illustrated by the extra manually drawn dashed white lines).
The user can switch between these 2 modes, each offering a unique perspective on the market. This provides a more in-depth examination of the market, enhancing the user's trading analysis.
Using a copy of our indicator while using both modes can also be helpful.
🔶 DETAILS
The Support level is the opening price of a bullish volatile candle plus a user-set percentage of the candle's body, while the Resistance level is the opening price of a bearish volatile candle minus a percentage of the candle's body.
The following example illustrates the ATR with the multiplicative factor (Volatility Threshold) where the body of Volatile candles exceeds the ATR limits. Changing the Volatility Threshold and ATR length gives users extra flexibility to adjust to their needs.
🔹 Max Line Length
When using the Historical Mode and the duration of a displayed level reaches the user-set Max Line Length value, the level will return to the last test or be deleted when it has not been tested.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Mode: Display mode of the indicator.
Support %: Sets the distance of the Support Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
Resistance %: Sets the distance of the Resistance Line from the opening price relative to the candle body.
🔹 Filter
Length ATR: Amount of bars for the calculation of the Average True Range.
Volatility Threshold: multiplicative factor of ATR.
Max Line Length: Maximum allowed duration/length (in bars) of a Support/Resistance level.
Volume Spread Analysis [Ahmed]Greetings everyone,
I'm thrilled to present a Pine Script I've crafted for Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) Indicator. This tool is aimed at empowering you to make smarter trading choices by scrutinizing the volume spread across a specified interval.
The script delivers a comparative volume analysis, permitting you to fix the type and length of the moving average. It subsequently delineates the moving average (MA), MA augmented by 1 standard deviation (SD), and MA increased by 2 SD. You can fully personalize the color coding for these echelons.
Volume Spread Analysis is an analytical technique that scrutinizes candles and the volume per candle to predict price direction. It considers the volume per candle, the spread range, and the closing price.
To effectively leverage VSA, you need to adhere to a few steps:
1. Ensure you use candlesticks for trading. Other chart types like line, bar, and renko charts may not yield optimal results.
2. Confirm that your broker provides reliable volume data.
3. Be mindful of the chart's timeframe. Volume analysis may not be effective on very short timeframes such as a minute chart. I recommend using daily, weekly, or monthly charts.
Another tip is to examine the spread between the price bars and the volume bars to discern the trend.
The script not only makes it easier to integrate these principles into your trading but also brings precision and convenience to your analysis.
Please remember to adhere to Tradinview terms of service when using the script. Happy trading!

It's important to note that this script can be customized according to your trading preferences and strategy.
Ahsan Tufail Precise MA Crossover Filter for Reliable SignalsIntroduction:
In the ever-evolving world of Forex trading, strategies that provide a competitive edge are highly sought after. The Moving Average (MA) crossover technique is a popular long-term approach, but its vulnerability to false signals can lead to potential losses. To overcome this challenge, we introduce a game-changing MA crossover filter designed to weed out false signals and unlock the full potential of this strategy. In this article, we delve into the mechanics of this filter, providing a comprehensive analysis of its components and how it enhances the accuracy of buy and sell signals.
The Power of the MA Crossover Filter:
The essence of our MA crossover filter lies in the integration of a specialized indicator that operates on a scale of 0 to 100. This ingenious indicator dynamically measures the distance between the middle Bollinger band and either the upper or lower Bollinger band. By analyzing the values of the last 504 candlesticks, it maps the range from 50 to 100 for the largest and smallest distances between the middle and upper Bollinger bands. Similarly, for values ranging from 0 to 50, it measures the distance between the middle and lower Bollinger bands.
Unveiling the Signal Execution Process:
The brilliance of this filter is revealed in its meticulous execution of buy and sell signals, which significantly reduces false crossovers. Let's explore the process step-by-step:
Buy Signal Precision:
To initiate a buy signal, the price must be positioned above the 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA).
The filter validates the crossover by checking the indicator's value, ensuring it falls below the threshold of 25.
Sell Signal Accuracy:
For a sell signal, the price must be below the 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA).
The filter confirms the crossover by verifying the indicator's value, which should exceed the threshold of 75.
This selective approach ensures that only high-confidence crossovers are considered, maximizing the potential for profitable trades.
Fine-Tuning the Filter for Optimal Performance:
While the MA crossover filter exhibits its prowess in GBPUSD and EURUSD currency pairs, it may require adjustments for other pairs. Currency pairs possess unique characteristics, and adapting the filter to specific behavior is crucial for its success.
To fine-tune the filter for alternative currency pairs, traders should conduct rigorous backtesting and analyze historical price data. By experimenting with indicator threshold values, traders can calibrate the filter to accurately match the dynamics of the target currency pair. This iterative process allows for customization, ultimately resulting in a finely-tuned filter that aligns with the unique behavior of the selected market.
Conclusion:
The MA crossover filter represents a paradigm shift in long-term Forex trading strategies. By intelligently filtering false signals, this precision tool unleashes the true potential of the MA crossover technique, elevating its profitability and enhancing overall trading performance. While no strategy guarantees absolute success, incorporating this filter empowers traders with a heightened level of confidence in their buy and sell signals. Embracing the power of this innovative filter can be a transformative step towards mastering Forex profits and staying ahead in the dynamic world of currency trading.
Oliver Velez IndicatorOliver Velez is a well-known trader and educator who has developed multiple trading strategies. One of them is the 20-200sma strategy, which is a basic moving average crossover strategy. The strategy involves using two simple moving averages (SMAs) - a short-term SMA with a period of 20 and a long-term SMA with a period of 200 - on a 2-minute timeframe chart.
When the short-term SMA crosses above the long-term SMA, it signals a potential bullish trend and traders may look for opportunities to enter a long position. Conversely, when the short-term SMA crosses below the long-term SMA, it signals a potential bearish trend and traders may look for opportunities to enter a short position.
Traders using this strategy may also look for additional confirmations, such as price action signals or other technical indicators, before entering or exiting a trade. It is important to note that no trading strategy can guarantee profits, and traders should always use risk management techniques to limit potential losses.
This script is an implementation of the 2 SMA's (can also choose other types of MA's), with Elephant Bar Indicator (EBI) and the Tail Bars Indicator in TradingView.
The Elephant Bar Indicator is a technical indicator used in trading to identify potential trend reversals in the market. It is named after the large size of the bullish or bearish candlestick that it represents. The Tail Bars Indicator is a pattern recognition technique that identifies candlestick patterns with long tails or wicks.
The script starts by defining the input parameters for both indicators. For the Elephant Bar Indicator, the user inputs the lookback period and the size multiplier. For the Tail Bars Indicator, the user inputs the tail ratio and opposite wick ratio.
Next, the script calculates the moving averages of the closing price over the defined short and long periods using the Moving Average function. The script then calculates the average candle size and volume over the lookback period.
The script then identifies the Elephant Bars and Tail Bars using the input parameters and additional conditions. For Elephant Bars, the script identifies bullish and bearish bars that meet certain criteria, such as a size greater than the average candle size and volume greater than the average volume.
For Tail Bars, the script identifies bullish and bearish bars that have long tails or wicks and meet certain criteria such as opposite wick size less than or equal to the tail size multiplied by the input opposite wick ratio.
Finally, the script plots the Elephant Bar and Tail Bar signals on the chart using different colors and shapes. The script also plots the moving averages and Keltner Channels to help traders identify potential trend reversals.
It is still under development, so please, if someone has ideas to add, more than welcome
