Evergito HH/LL 3 Señales + ATR SL 2How to trade with the Evergito HH/LL 3 Signals + ATR SL indicator? Brief and direct explanation: General system logic: The indicator looks for actual breakouts of the high/low of the last 20 bars (HH/LL) and combines them with the position relative to the 200 SMA to filter the underlying trend. You have 3 types of signals that you can activate/deactivate separately: Signal
When it appears
What it means in practice
Entry type
V1
HH breakout + the close crosses above the 200 SMA (or the opposite in a short position)
Very safe entry confirmed. The price has just validated the long/flat trend → safer and with a better ratio
The most reliable (the original)
V2
HH breakout but the price was already above the 200 SMA (or already below in a short position)
Entry in an already established trend. Fewer “surprises”, more continuity
Ideal for strong trends
V3
Only the breakout of the HH or LL, without looking at the 200 SMA
Aggressive entry/scalping on explosive breakouts. More signals, more noise.
For times of high volatility.
How to enter the market (simple rule): Wait for any of the 3 labels (V1, V2, or V3) to appear, depending on which ones you have activated.
Enter at the close of that candle (or at the open of the next one if you are conservative).
Automatic Stop Loss → the blue (long) or yellow (short) line that represents the ATR x2.
Take Profit → you decide, but the indicator already gives you the visual reference for the risk (ATR x2), so 1:2 or 1:3 is usually very convenient.
Practical example: You see a large green label “HH LONG V1” → you go long at the close of that candle. Stop right at the blue line (ATR x2 below the price).
Typical target: 2x or 3x the risk (very common to reach it in a trend).
Recommended use: Most traders leave only V1 activated → fewer signals but very high quality.
Those who trade intraday or crypto usually combine V1 + V2.
V3 only for news events or very volatile openings.
In summary:
Label = immediate entry
Blue/yellow line = automatic stop
And enjoy the move.

Vietnamese Stock: Discount Linear Regression Liquidity GrabThe Discount Linear Regression Liquidity Grab is a sophisticated technical analysis tool that combines statistical trend analysis with Premium/Discount Zone and Price Action logic. Unlike standard Linear Regression Channels that repaint or stretch indefinitely, this indicator is dynamic: it automatically detects volatility breakouts to "reset" the channel, creating distinct market "Sections."
This tool is designed to help traders identify trend exhaustion, fair value gaps (FVGs), and high-probability reversal or continuation zones using two distinct built-in strategies.
Key Features
1. Dynamic Channel Resets
The core engine calculates a Linear Regression Channel based on a Pearson R coefficient and Deviation multipliers.
- How it works: When price breaks out of the Upper or Lower Deviation bands, the script recognizes a shift in momentum. It "locks" the previous channel and begins calculating a new one from the breakout point.
- Benefit: This creates a historical map of market structure, showing you exactly where previous trends began and ended.
2. Smart Money Concepts (SMC) Integration
For every completed section (channel), the indicator automatically highlights:
Highest High & Lowest Low Boxes: Identifies the structural range of the previous move.
- Gaps & FVGs: Automatically draws boxes for Fair Value Gaps and Price Gaps within the channel, acting as potential magnets for price.
3. The Discount Zone (New Feature)
The indicator projects a Discount Area (Red Box) from the previous section's midline down to its lowest low.
- Logic: This box represents the "Discount" pricing relative to the previous move.
- Behavior: The box extends to the right until price successfully "grabs liquidity" (closes below the midline/red line). Once the grab occurs, the box stops extending, marking that the liquidity event is complete.
Built-In Strategies
This indicator includes two automated strategy signals based on the interaction between current price and historical sections.
Strategy 1: Breakout & Retest (Trend Continuation)
This strategy looks for a classic resistance-turned-support setup.
- Breakout: Price closes above the Highest High of a previous section (Triangle Up).
- Retest: Price pulls back and closes at or below that breakout level (Triangle Down).
- Confirmation: Price breaks above the high of the initial breakout candle (Green Background).
Strategy 2: Midline Reclaim (Mean Reversion / Discount Buy)
This strategy focuses on buying from the "Discount" zone.
- Liquidity Grab: Price drops below the Midline (Red Line) of a previous section, entering the Discount Zone.
- Reclaim: Price closes back above the Midline, signaling that the dip was bought up.
Signal: A Diamond shape and Teal Background appear.
How to Use
- Trend Trading: Use the Dynamic Channels to visualize the current slope. If the channel is angling up, look for long setups.
- Confluence: Use the Discount Zones and FVG boxes as areas of interest. If price enters a Red Discount Box and forms a reversal pattern, it is a high-probability entry.
- Stop Loss Placement: The Lowest Low boxes of previous sections serve as excellent invalidation points for long positions.
Alerts
The indicator comes with pre-configured alerts for:
- Strategy 1 Confirmation.
- Strategy 2 Midline Reclaim.
- New Channel Formation (Trend Reset).
- Liquidity Grab Events.

Dynamic Ratchet Trend Strategy [VIX Filter]Overview This strategy is a long-only trend-following system designed to capture major market moves while strictly managing downside risk through a state-machine based "Ratchet" exit logic. It incorporates a volatility filter using the CBOE VIX index to stay out of (or exit) the market during high-stress environments.
Key Features
1. Multi-Condition Entries The strategy looks for momentum shifts and trend breakouts using four Simple Moving Averages (25, 50, 100, 200).
Momentum Cross: SMA 25 crossover above SMA 50.
Trend Breakouts: A specific "3-Bar Breakout" logic above the SMA 50, 100, or 200. This requires the price to hold above the SMA for 3 consecutive bars after being below it, reducing false signals compared to simple closes.
2. VIX Volatility Filter Before entering any trade, the script checks the CBOE:VIX.
Filter: If VIX is above the threshold (default 32), new entries are blocked.
Panic Exit: If you are in a position and the VIX spikes above the threshold, the strategy executes an immediate "Panic Exit" to preserve capital during market crashes.
3. The "Ratchet" Exit System (3 Stages) Unlike a standard trailing stop, this strategy uses a 3-stage dynamic exit mechanism that tightens as profits grow:
Stage 0 (Initial Risk): Standard percentage-based Stop Loss from the entry price.
Stage 1 (The Lock-In): Triggered when profit hits 10% (configurable).
Unique Logic: Instead of trailing from the highest high, the stop is calculated based on the price at the exact moment this stage was triggered. It "steps up" once and holds, securing the initial move without being prematurely stopped out by normal volatility.
Stage 2 (Trailing Mode): Triggered when profit hits 15% (configurable).
The strategy switches to a classic Trailing Stop, following the percentage distance from the Highest High.
4. Emergency Backup A "Dead Cross" (SMA 25 crossing under SMA 50) acts as a final fail-safe to close positions if the trend reverses completely before hitting a stop.
Settings & Inputs
SMAs: Customize the lengths for all four moving averages.
VIX Filter: Toggle the filter on/off and set the panic threshold.
Exit Logic: Fully customizable percentages for Initial SL, Stage 1 Trigger/Distance, and Stage 2 Trigger/Trailing Distance.
Disclaimer This script is for educational purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always manage your risk appropriately.
Low Volatility Profiles [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Low Volatility Profiles is a market compression and breakout-anticipation tool that identifies phases of low volatility using ADX and then builds a real-time volume profile inside the detected range.
This helps traders spot accumulation/distribution zones and prepare for explosive moves when volatility expands.
When volatility is low ➜ price coils ➜ volume organizes ➜ breakouts become highly actionable.
This tool visualizes that process with dynamic range boxes + volume bins + PoC extension.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Low-Volatility Detection — Uses ADX threshold & cross logic to define volatility contraction regimes.
Range Construction — Draws a price box that expands with highs/lows during the compression phase.
Micro Volume Profile — Builds a volume histogram inside the range using bins (micro volume nodes).
Delta Calculation — Tracks positive vs negative volume to gauge buyer/seller pressure within range.
Point of Control (PoC) — Highlights the price level with max traded volume inside the range.
PoC Extension — Optionally extends PoC into future bars to show potential reaction zone after breakout.
Breakout Validation — Ends the profile zone when price breaks above or below the modeled range.
Noise Removal — Automatically removes invalid or small ranges to prevent chart clutter.
This tool turns consolidation into actionable structure by exposing where smart money accumulates before trending moves.
🔵 FEATURES
ADX-Driven Range Detection — Identify when market transitions into low-volatility compression.
Configurable ADX Threshold — Set sensitivity for contraction zones.
Cross-Type Option — Detect low volatility via cross under / crossover logic.
Dynamic Range Box — Expands live with price as contraction unfolds.
Micro Volume Profile (Bins) — Distributes volume across bins inside range for micro POC mapping.
Volume Delta Visualization — Shows imbalance inside consolidation (accumulation vs distribution).
Real-Time PoC Highlight — Instantly shows most traded price inside the compression.
PoC Extension Mode — Extend PoC forward to project reaction levels post-breakout.
Clean Auto-Reset Logic — Removes boxes if range invalid or breakout occurs too fast.
Optional Filled Boxes — Heatmap-style profile visualization inside range body.
ADX Line + Threshold Plot — Visual assistance for volatility state monitoring.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Identify Accumulation Zones — When price enters low-volatility ADX condition and profile builds.
Watch the PoC — PoC acts as battle zone; move above/below can signal initiator strength.
Breakout Strategy — Trade break above/below the range after compression.
Mean Reversion Inside Range — Fade edges while price remains inside compression box.
Combine With Trend Tools — Use trend confirmation (MA/EMA/Flow indicators) after breakout.
Use Delta Clues — Positive delta tilt suggests accumulation; negative suggests distribution.
Monitor Range Size — Longer build + high PoC volume = stronger potential breakout energy.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Low Volatility Profiles isolates accumulation phases and maps volume concentration before volatility expansion.
By combining ADX compression, micro volume distribution, and PoC tracing, traders gain an edge in anticipating powerful breakout cycles and institutional positioning.
Trade the quiet moment before the storm — where smart money prepares the move, and the real opportunity emerges.
Ellipse Price Action Indicator v2 (Upgraded)
This upgraded Ellipse Price Action Indicator (EPAI v2) to take high-accuracy trades.
I am explaining it as if you are looking at the chart step by step, so you will understand exactly:
-When to buy
-When to
-When to avoid
-How to read Strength Meter
-How Ellipse zones work
⭐ 1. THE BASICS — What This Indicator Actually Does
This indicator tracks:
✔ The “Elliptical Path” of price
Like a planet revolving around the Sun, price “oscillates” around a center.
The indicator detects this hidden mathematical path using:
Two Focus Points (Fast MA & Slow MA)
Curved Ellipse boundaries
Compression of price
Momentum of trend
Breakout zones
⭐ 2. UNDERSTANDING THE 3 ZONES
🔴 UPPER ZONE = Sell Zone
Price is near the upper ellipse boundary → overbought space.
🟢 LOWER ZONE = Buy Zone
Price near lower ellipse boundary → oversold space.
🔵 CENTRAL ZONE = No Trade Zone
Price swinging inside the ellipse center → noise.
Only trade in UPPER or LOWER zones.
Never in the central zone.
⭐ 3. THE MOST IMPORTANT PART — Strength Meter v2
Strength Meter v2 (0 to 100%) is the core filter.
✔ Above 70% → High winning probability (take trade)
✔ 60–70% → Medium probability (trade if confident)
❌ Below 60% → Avoid trade
Strength combines:
Ellipse compression
Momentum slope
Price position curve
Eccentricity
Trend direction
This alone removes 70% bad trades.
⭐ 4. BUY SETUP (Exact Rules)
You get a BUY only if all conditions match:
① Price goes to lower ellipse zone
② Compression is ON (ellipse is tight)
③ Momentum slope direction = UP
④ Focus Lines Cross Bullish (Fast > Slow)
⑤ Strength v2 ≥ your threshold (default 60%)
⑥ A BUY signal prints (triangle UP)
When these align →
🟢 BUY with high accuracy
Best Accuracy Buy is:
Price in lower zone
Strength ≥ 0.75
Slope UP
Ellipse compressed
⭐ 5. SELL SETUP (Exact Rules)
Same logic reversed:
① Price in upper ellipse zone
② Compression ON
③ Momentum slope DOWN
④ Focus Lines cross bearish (Fast < Slow)
⑤ Strength v2 ≥ threshold
⑥ SELL signal prints (triangle DOWN)
This means:
🔴 SELL with high accuracy
Best Accuracy Sell is:
Price in upper zone
Strength ≥ 0.75
Slope DOWN
Ellipse compressed
⭐ 6. BREAKOUT TRADES (Optional but powerful)
When price breaks above/below ellipse:
🔸 Upper Breakout → SELL (if strength strong)
🔸 Lower Breakout → BUY (if strength strong)
Breakout signals are marked by orange arrows.
Breakouts are taken only if:
Strength v2 > 50%
Slope supports breakout
Compression exists before breakout
Breakout trades catch trend continuation.
⭐ 7. HOW TO CONFIRM A STRONG TRADE
Look at the table on the chart:
✔ Strength v2 ≥ 70% (GREEN)
✔ Compression = GREEN
✔ Slope direction = UP (for buy) or DOWN (for sell)
✔ Zone = LOWER or UPPER
✔ Eccentricity = LOW (<0.5 means smooth trend)
If these line up →
⭐ High-probability entry.
⭐ 8. WHEN YOU SHOULD NOT TRADE
❌ If price is in Central Zone
❌ Strength < 60
❌ No compression detected
❌ Slope is flat or against direction
❌ Only one condition is matching
❌ Eccentricity is too large
(Big ellipse = unpredictable swings)
⭐ 9. What Is the Accuracy Level?
In trending markets → 75% to 85% accuracy
In ranging markets → 50% (use compression filter to avoid)
The indicator is designed to avoid bad market conditions automatically.
⭐ 10. BEST TIMEFRAMES
✔ 5m, 15m, 1H → Intraday
✔ 4H, 1D → Swing Trading
✔ NOT recommended below 1m timeframe
⭐ SUMMARY (EASY VERSION)
🟢 BUY:
Lower zone + compression + bullish slope + strong focus cross + strength ≥ 60
🔴 SELL:
Upper zone + compression + bearish slope + strong focus cross + strength ≥ 60
🟠 Breakout:
Upper/lower breakout + strength ≥ 50
🔵 Avoid:
Central zone or weak strength
cd_sfp_CxGeneral:
This indicator is designed to assist users who trade the Swing Failure Pattern ( SFP ).
In technical literature (various definitions exist), an SFP is a situation where the price violates a previous swing level but fails to close beyond that level.
• (Liquidity Sweep)
• (Buyer or seller dominance)
• (Stop hunt)
• (Turtle Soup)
The general strategy is built upon seeking trade opportunities after an SFP is formed and conviction is established that the market direction has changed.
Components used to gather confirmation:
• Determining Bias: Periodic SAR
• Obtaining Breakout/Reversal Confirmation: Change in State Delivery (CISD)
• Defining the Buyer/Seller Block (Supply/Demand Zones): Mitg Blocks (Mitigation Blocks), FVG (Fair Value Gaps), and Standard Deviation Projection
• Key Levels: Previous HTF (Higher Time Frame) levels
• Setting Targets: Standard Deviation Projection
• Trade Management: Anchored VWAP and opposing blocks
• Time-Based Context: Session Killzone times
• Notifications: An alarm/alert system will be utilized to stay informed.
________________________________________
Details:
Swing and Swing Failure Pattern:
Swing Sweep Types (Liquidity Sweep):
1. Single
2. Consecutive (The liquidity of the entity that swept the liquidity is being swept)
Bias Determination
We need to filter out the numerous SFPs that occur across all time frames. Our first strong filter will be the Bias. We will only look for trades aligned with our bias.
We will use Periodic SAR (Stop and Reverse) to determine the bias. We compare the price with the SAR value from a Higher Time Frame than the one we are trading on.
• Price > SAR => Bullish Bias
• Price < SAR => Bearish Bias
Depending on the pair, H1 SAR may be chosen for scalp trades, and Daily/Weekly SAR for intraday and swing trades.
Key Levels
Strategies looking for trades after a liquidity grab generally state that the sweep / stop hunt movement should occur at a significant price level.
The most fundamental Key Level levels are (User can customize):
• Previous Week High & Low
• Previous Day High & Low
• Previous H4 High & Low
• Previous H1 High & Low
• Asia Killzone High & Low
• London Killzone High & Low
• New York Killzone High & Low
• Monday Range High & Low values
We will prefer SFP formations that occur when these levels are swept. When Key Levels are violated, an information label appears on the screen.
Blocks / Zones
To strengthen our hand, we will use three types of blocks/zones, either with Key Levels or separately. When an SFP structure is formed in these areas (along with bias and breakout confirmation), our expectation is for the price to continue in our desired direction. These regions are:
1. Mitigation Blocks (Mtg)
o (Details can be found in the cd_VWAP_mtg_Cx indicator)
o In short: A second candle, following a bullish candle, crosses its high but fails to close above it. We call this a sweep / SFP. When the price, which was expected to go to the low, instead makes a new high/close, an Mtg block is formed. (Buyers are dominant)
2. FVGs (Fair Value Gaps)
o We use classic FVG structures.
3. Standard Deviation Projection Boxes
o When we get an SFP structure + breakout confirmation (CISD), we use the Standard Deviation Projection to determine our profit-taking and take-profit levels.
o Based on the idea that the price often respects the range between -2 and -2.5 of the projection values, we box this range and use it as our area of interest. (Our expectation is for the price to reverse after reaching this target).
o Let's mark it on the chart.
Confirmation
To summarize what has been explained so far: we look for the price to form an SFP structure in levels/zones we deem important, aligned with our bias, and for the breakout to be confirmed with a CISD.
No single component is strong on its own, but the success rate increases when they occur together.
We observe the following as additional confirmation along with the CISD: a new Mtg block forming in the direction of the breakout, high-volume movement (with FVG and a large body), and respect for VWAPs, the resistance/support line, and the defense block.
Additional Confirmations with Breakouts:
• Defence block, new mtg and VWAP
• Resistance / Support Line:
Indicator Signals
The indicator marks all formed sweeps, selected key levels, blocks, the projection, and CISD confirmations on the screen. The candle where the CISD confirmation occurs is indicated by an arrow.
• Arrows with double short lines signify a CISD that follows an SFP occurring at a Key Level.
• All other CISD candle indications are shown with single-line arrows.
Trade Management
When selecting profit targets in trades (preferably), the projection, opposing blocks, and structures that have formed are taken into account. Do not neglect to look at the structures that have formed against you when entering a trade.
Menu Settings:
• For Mtg blocks, the trading timeframe or a higher timeframe can be selected.
• FVGs formed in the current timeframe are displayed when the price creates an SFP (in "Fvg" option).
• Deviation boxes are displayed when the price creates an SFP (in box).
• The SAR HTF setting (H1) for scalp trades may vary depending on the pair. Users trying trades on higher timeframes should increase the HTF setting.
o Example: If you are looking for a trade with an SFP structure on H1, the SAR HTF setting should be H4 or higher.
• VWAP lines are refreshed starting from the candle that executed the sweep when the price forms an SFP. The only setting to adjust is the source selection setting (hlc3 is selected).
• Time frames and Killzone / Special Zone settings for Key Levels can be changed/should be checked.
Alarms / Alerts:
The conditions that will trigger an alert can be selected from the menu.
• To receive an alert aligned with the bias, the "Alignment with bias" checkbox must be selected.
• The alert should be set on the timeframe where you plan to enter the trade.
• The display options do not affect the alarm conditions. (Example: FVGs are monitored even when the menu selection is "off").
• If the necessary conditions are met, the alarm is triggered on the new candle that opens after the CISD confirmation.
• The alarm will not be triggered more than once at the same Key Level.
The user can preferably select alerts:
• Bias-aligned or Bias-independent
• Sweep (without waiting for CISD)
• Sweep + CISD (without looking for other conditions)
• Sweep + Key Level + CISD (the swept level is a Key Level)
• Sweep + Mtg / Fvg / Dev. + CISD (SFP formed in any of the blocks)
• Sweep + Mtg + CISD (SFP formed in the Mtg block)
• Sweep + Fvg + CISD (SFP formed inside the FVG)
• Sweep + Deviation Box + CISD (SFP formed inside the Dev. Box)
• Sweep + Key Level + Mtg / Fvg / Dev. + CISD (SFP formed simultaneously at a Key Level and any of the blocks)
Trade Example:
• Conditions: Bias-aligned + Sweep + Mtg/Fvg/Dev (at least one) + CISD
• Extra Confirmations: Respect for the Defense Block + Respect for VWAP
• Target (TP): Projection between -2 and -2.5
I welcome your thoughts and suggestions regarding my indicator, which I believe will be successful in the long run by adhering to uncompromising risk management and a strict trading plan.
Happy Trading!
SRD
SRD v11 - Multi-Timeframe Volume Profile (POC, VAH, VAL)
Key Features
Dual Timeframe Analysis:
📈 Main Analysis (Daily): Calculates and displays the most significant levels based on a user-defined period of daily bars. This is ideal for identifying intraday and short-term trading opportunities.
📊 Strategic Analysis (Weekly): Plots key levels from a weekly perspective, giving you a broader, long-term view of market sentiment and structure. This can be toggled on or off.
Volume Profile Core Levels: The indicator automatically calculates and visualizes the three most important levels derived from volume analysis for both timeframes:
🎯 POC (Point of Control): The price level with the highest traded volume for the specified period. It acts as a powerful magnet for price and a key reference for market equilibrium.
🔴 VAH (Value Area High): The highest price level within the "Value Area" (where ~70% of the volume was traded). It often acts as a significant resistance zone.
🟢 VAL (Value Area Low): The lowest price level within the Value Area. It often serves as a strong support zone.
🟠 24-Hour High: An optional feature that plots the highest price reached in the last 24 hours, providing a crucial reference point for breakout and reversal traders.
Dynamic and Non-Repainting: The levels are calculated based on historical confirmed bars and update automatically as new periods (daily or weekly) close. The lines extend to the right, remaining relevant until a new calculation period begins.
Integrated Alert System: Never miss a key price interaction. The indicator includes a comprehensive alert system for:
Breakouts: Triggers when the price crosses above or below the POC, VAH, or VAL.
Touches: Triggers when the price touches one of these key levels without breaking through it (within a small tolerance).
Unified Alert: A single alert that notifies you of any of the above conditions.
Customization
The SRD v11 is fully customizable to fit your trading style. You can adjust:
Timeframes: Change the base timeframes for both the main (default Daily) and strategic (default Weekly) analysis.
Analysis Periods: Define the number of bars (days or weeks) to include in the Volume Profile calculation.
Visuals: Customize the color, width, and style (solid, dashed, dotted) of every line and label for clear and intuitive visualization.
Toggle Elements: Easily show or hide the strategic (weekly) analysis and the 24-hour high line.
How to Use It >
Identify Key Zones: Use the VAH (resistance) and VAL (support) lines to identify potential entry and exit zones. The area between VAH and VAL is the "Value Area," where the market has found acceptance.
Monitor the POC: The Point of Control is the ultimate level of equilibrium. Watch for price reactions around the POC. A sustained break above or below can signal a new trend.
Combine Timeframes: Use the strategic (weekly) levels as major, long-term points of interest and the main (daily) levels for your day-to-day trading setup. Confluence between levels from different timeframes can indicate extremely strong support or resistance.
Set Alerts: Configure alerts for breakouts or touches to be notified of critical market movements in real-time, even when you are away from the charts.
4-Hour Range Scalping [v6.3]User Guide: 4-Hour Range Scalping Strategy
Hello! Here is the guide for the Pine Script strategy. Please read it carefully to get the best results.
📈 This script automates the "4-Hour Range Scalping Strategy" from the video.
The main idea is that the first four hours of a major trading day (like New York) set up a "trap zone." The strategy waits for the price to break out of this zone and then fail, giving us a signal that the breakout was false and the price is likely to reverse.
Here’s the simple logic:
Define the Range: It precisely calculates the highest high and lowest low during the first four hours of the selected trading session (e.g., 00:00 to 04:00 New York Time).
Wait for a Breakout: It then monitors the 5-minute chart for a price breakout where a candle fully closes outside of this established range.
Identify the Reversal: The trade trigger occurs when the price fails to continue its breakout and a subsequent 5-minute candle closes back inside the range. This signals a potential reversal or "failed breakout."
Execute the Trade:
]A Short (Sell) trade is triggered after a failed breakout above the range high.
A Long (Buy) trade is triggered after a failed breakout below the range low.
Manage the Risk: The Stop Loss is automatically placed at the peak (for shorts) or trough (for longs) of the breakout move, and the Take Profit is set to a default 2:1 Risk/Reward Ratio.
How to Use the Script (Step-by-Step) ⚙️
Follow these instructions to get it running perfectly.
1. Set Your Chart Timeframe This is the most important step. The strategy is designed to run on a 5-minute (5m) chart. Open your TradingView chart and make sure the timeframe is set to "5m".
2. Add the Script to Your Chart Open the Pine Editor tab at the bottom of TradingView, paste the entire script, and click the "Add to chart" button.
3. Configure the Settings On your chart, find the strategy's name (e.g., "4-Hour Range Scalping ") and click the gear icon ⚙️ to open its settings.
Trading Session: Choose the session for the range. New York is the default and the one from the video.
Risk/Reward Ratio: The default is 2.0, meaning your potential profit is twice your potential loss. You can adjust this to test other targets.
Backtesting Period: To see how the strategy performed on all historical data, go to the "Strategy Tester" panel, click its own gear icon ⚙️, and uncheck the boxes for "Start Date" and "End Date."
4. Understand the Visuals on Your Chart
Blue Background Area: This is the 4-hour calculation window. The script is identifying the day's high and low during this time. No trades will ever happen here.
Red Line (Range High): The highest price of the 4-hour window. This is the upper boundary of the "trap zone."
Green Line (Range Low): The lowest price of the 4-hour window. This is the lower boundary.
Green Triangle (▲): Shows where a Long (Buy) trade was entered.
Red Triangle (▼): Shows where a Short (Sell) trade was entered.
A Very Important Note on Timezones 🕒
This is critical for you in the Philippines (PHT).
The script is based on the New York session, which is 12 hours behind you. Your TradingView chart will still show your local time, but the script works on NY time in the background.
The New York "day" begins at 12:00 PM (Noon) your time.
The script's blue calculation window will be from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM your local time.
The red and green range lines will appear on your chart only after 4:00 PM your time.
So, if you look at your chart in the morning or early afternoon, you will not see today's range yet. This is normal! The script is just waiting for the New York session to start.
How to Set Up Trade Alerts 🔔
You can have TradingView send you a notification whenever the script enters a trade.
Click the "Alert" button (looks like a clock) in the right-hand toolbar of TradingView.
In the "Condition" dropdown, select the name of the script (e.g., "4-Hour Range Scalping...").
You will then see two options: "Long Signal" and "Short Signal".
Select one (e.g., "Long Signal") and configure how you want to be notified (e.g., "Notify on app").
Click "Create". Repeat the process to create an alert for the other signal.

ICT HTF Volume Candles (Based on HTF Candles by Fadi)# ICT HTF Volume Candles - Multi-Timeframe Volume Analysis
## Overview
This indicator provides multi-timeframe volume visualization designed to complement price action analysis. It displays volume data from up to 6 higher timeframes simultaneously in a separate panel, allowing traders to identify volume spikes, divergences, and institutional activity without switching between timeframes.
**Original Concept Credits:** This indicator builds upon the HTF Candles framework by Fadi, adapting it specifically for volume analysis with enhanced features including gap-filling for extended hours, multiple scaling methods, and advanced synchronization.
## What Makes This Script Original
### Key Innovations:
1. **Three Volume Scaling Methods:**
- **Per-HTF Auto Scale:** Each timeframe scales independently for detailed comparison
- **Global Auto Scale:** All timeframes use unified scale for relative volume comparison
- **Manual Scale:** User-defined maximum for consistent analysis across sessions
2. **Bullish/Bearish Volume Differentiation:**
- Volume bars colored based on price movement (close vs open)
- Separate styling for bullish (green) and bearish (red) volume periods
- Helps identify whether volume supports price direction
3. **Advanced Time Synchronization:**
- Custom daily candle open times (Midnight, 8:30 AM, 9:30 AM ET)
- Timezone-aware calculations for New York trading hours
- Real-time countdown timers for each timeframe
- **Gap-filling technology** for continuous display during extended hours and weekends
4. **Flexible Display Options:**
- Configurable spacing and positioning
- Label placement (top, bottom, or both)
- Day-of-week or time interval labels on candles
- Works reliably in backtesting and live trading
## How It Works
### Volume Calculation
The indicator uses `request.security()` with optimized parameters to fetch volume data from higher timeframes:
- **Volume Open/High/Low/Close (OHLC):** Tracks volume changes within each HTF candle
- **Color Logic:** Compares HTF close vs open prices to determine bullish/bearish classification
- **Alignment:** All volume bars share a common baseline for easy visual comparison
- **Gap Handling:** Uses `gaps=barmerge.gaps_off` to maintain continuity during non-trading hours
### Technical Implementation
```
1. Monitors HTF timeframe changes using request.security() with lookahead
2. Creates new VolumeCandle object when HTF bar opens
3. Updates current candle's volume H/L/C on each chart bar
4. Applies selected scaling method to normalize display height
5. Repositions all candles and labels on each bar update
6. Fills gaps automatically during extended hours for consistent display
```
### Scaling Methods Explained
**Method 1 - Auto Scale per HTF:**
Each timeframe displays volume relative to its own maximum. Best for identifying patterns within each individual timeframe.
**Method 2 - Global Auto Scale:**
All timeframes share the same scale based on the highest volume across all HTFs. Best for comparing relative volume strength between timeframes.
**Method 3 - Manual Scale:**
User sets maximum volume value. Best for maintaining consistent scale across different trading sessions or instruments.
## How to Use This Indicator
### Setup
1. Add indicator to your chart (it appears in a separate panel below price)
2. Configure up to 6 higher timeframes (default: 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W)
3. Set number of candles to display for each timeframe
4. Choose volume scaling method based on your analysis needs
5. Enable "Fix gaps in non-trading hours" for extended hours trading (enabled by default)
### Interpretation
**Volume Spikes:**
- Sudden increase in volume height indicates institutional activity or strong conviction
- Compare volume between timeframes to identify where the real money is moving
- Look for volume spikes that appear across multiple timeframes simultaneously
**Bullish vs Bearish Volume:**
- **Green volume bars:** Price closed higher (buying pressure)
- **Red volume bars:** Price closed lower (selling pressure)
- High green volume during uptrend = confirmation of strength
- High red volume during downtrend = confirmation of weakness
- High volume opposite to trend = potential reversal warning
**Multi-Timeframe Context:**
- **5m/15m:** Scalping and day trading activity
- **1H/4H:** Swing trading and intraday institutional flows
- **Daily/Weekly:** Major position building and long-term trends
**Divergences:**
- Price making new highs but volume declining = weakening trend
- Volume increasing while price consolidates = potential breakout brewing
- Price breaks level but volume doesn't confirm = likely false breakout
### Practical Examples
**Example 1 - Institutional Confirmation:**
Price breaks above resistance. Check volume across timeframes:
- 5m shows spike = retail interest
- 15m + 1H + 4H all show spikes = institutional confirmation
- **Trade confidence: HIGH**
**Example 2 - False Breakout Detection:**
Price breaks resistance with:
- High volume on 5m only
- Normal/low volume on 1H and 4H
- **Interpretation:** Likely retail trap, institutions not participating
- **Action:** Wait for pullback or avoid
**Example 3 - Accumulation Phase:**
Price ranges sideways but:
- Daily volume gradually increasing
- Weekly volume above average
- **Interpretation:** Smart money accumulating
- **Action:** Prepare for breakout in direction of volume
**Example 4 - Volume Divergence:**
Price makes new high:
- Current high has lower volume than previous high across all timeframes
- **Interpretation:** Weakening momentum
- **Action:** Consider profit-taking or reversal trade
## Configuration Parameters
### Timeframe Settings
- **HTF 1-6:** Select timeframes (must be higher than chart timeframe)
- **Max Display:** Number of candles to show per timeframe (1-50)
- **Limit to Next HTFs:** Display only first N enabled timeframes (1-6)
### Styling

- **Padding from current candles:** Distance offset from live price action
- **Space between candles:** Gap between individual volume bars
- **Space between Higher Timeframes:** Gap between different timeframe groups
- **Candle Width:** Thickness of volume bars (1-4, multiplied by 2)
### Volume Settings
- **Volume Scale Method:** Choose 1, 2, or 3
- 1 = Auto Scale per HTF (each TF independent)
- 2 = Global Auto Scale (all TF unified)
- 3 = Manual Scale (user-defined max)
- **Auto Scale Volume:** Enable/disable automatic scaling
- **Manual Scale Max Volume:** Set maximum when using Method 3
### Label Settings

- **Label Positions:** Display at Top, Bottom, or Both
- **Label Alignment:** Align centered or Follow Candles
- **Remaining Time:** Show countdown timer until next HTF candle
- **Interval Value:** Display day-of-week or time on each candle
### Custom Daily Candle
- **Enable Custom Daily:** Override default daily candle timing
- **Open Time Options:**
- **Midnight:** Standard 00:00 ET daily open
- **8:30 AM:** Align with economic data releases
- **9:30 AM:** Align with NYSE market open
- Useful for specific trading strategies or market alignment
### Advanced Settings
- **Fix gaps in non-trading hours:** Maintains alignment during extended hours and weekends (recommended: ON)
- Prevents visual gaps during forex weekend closures
- Ensures consistent display during crypto 24/7 trading
- Improves backtesting reliability
## Best Practices
1. **Pair with Price Action:** Use alongside HTF price candles indicator for complete picture
2. **Start Simple:** Enable 2-3 timeframes initially (e.g., 15m, 1H, 4H), add more as needed
3. **Match Settings:** Use same candle width/spacing as companion price indicator for visual alignment
4. **Scale Appropriately:**
- Use **Global scale** (Method 2) when comparing timeframes
- Use **Per-HTF scale** (Method 1) for pattern analysis within each timeframe
- Use **Manual scale** (Method 3) for consistent day-to-day comparison
5. **Watch for Volume Clusters:** High volume appearing simultaneously across multiple HTFs signals significant market events
6. **Confirm Breakouts:** Always check if volume supports the price movement across higher timeframes
7. **Extended Hours:** Keep "Fix gaps" enabled for 24/7 markets (Forex, Crypto) and weekend analysis
## Technical Notes
- **Timezone:** All calculations use America/New_York timezone for consistency
- **Real-time Updates:** Volume and timers update on each tick during market hours
- **Performance:** Optimized with max_bars_back=5000 for extensive historical analysis
- **Compatibility:** Works on all instruments with volume data (Stocks, Forex, Crypto, Futures)
- **Gap Handling:** Uses `barmerge.gaps_off` to fill data gaps during non-trading periods
- **Backtesting:** Uses `lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on` for stable historical data without repainting
- **Data Continuity:** Automatically handles market closures, weekends, and extended hours

ICT Anchored Market Structures with Validation [LuxAlgo]The ICT Anchored Market Structures with Validation indicator is an advanced iteration of the original Pure-Price-Action-Structures tool, designed for price action traders.
It systematically tracks and validates key price action structures, distinguishing between true structural shifts/breaks and short-term sweeps to enhance trend and reversal analysis. The indicator automatically highlights structural points, confirms breakouts, identifies sweeps, and provides clear visual cues for short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term market structures.
A distinctive feature of this indicator is its exclusive reliance on price patterns. It does not depend on any user-defined input, ensuring that its analysis remains robust, objective, and uninfluenced by user bias, making it an effective tool for understanding market dynamics.
🔶 USAGE
Market structure is a cornerstone of price action analysis. This script automatically detects real-time market structures across short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term levels, simplifying trend analysis for traders. It assists in identifying both trend reversals and continuations with greater clarity.
Market structure shifts and breaks help traders identify changes in trend direction. A shift signals a potential reversal, often occurring when a swing high or low is breached, suggesting a transition in trend. A break, on the other hand, confirms the continuation of an established trend, reinforcing the current direction. Recognizing these shifts and breaks allows traders to anticipate price movement with greater accuracy.
It’s important to note that while a CHoCH may signal a potential trend reversal and a BoS suggests a continuation of the prevailing trend, neither guarantees a complete reversal or continuation. In some cases, CHoCH and BoS levels may act as liquidity zones or areas of consolidation rather than indicating a clear shift or continuation in market direction. The indicator’s validation component helps confirm whether the detected CHoCH and BoS are true breakouts or merely liquidity sweeps.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Market Structures
Market structures are derived from price action analysis, focusing on identifying key levels and patterns in the market. Swing point detection, a fundamental concept in ICT trading methodologies and teachings, plays a central role in this approach.
Swing points are automatically identified based exclusively on market movements, without requiring any user-defined input.
🔹 Utilizing Swing Points
Swing points are not identified in real-time as they form. Short-term swing points may appear with a delay of up to one bar, while the identification of intermediate and long-term swing points is entirely dependent on subsequent market movements. Importantly, this detection process is not influenced by any user-defined input, relying solely on pure price action. As a result, swing points are generally not intended for real-time trading scenarios.
Instead, traders often analyze historical swing points to understand market trends and identify potential entry and exit opportunities. By examining swing highs and lows, traders can:
Recognize Trends: Swing highs and lows provide insight into trend direction. Higher swing highs and higher swing lows signify an uptrend, while lower swing highs and lower swing lows indicate a downtrend.
Identify Support and Resistance Levels: Swing highs often act as resistance levels, referred to as Buyside Liquidity Levels in ICT terminology, while swing lows function as support levels, also known as Sellside Liquidity Levels. Traders can leverage these levels to plan their trade entries and exits.
Spot Reversal Patterns: Swing points can form key reversal patterns, such as double tops or bottoms, head and shoulders, and triangles. Recognizing these patterns can indicate potential trend reversals, enabling traders to adjust their strategies effectively.
Set Stop Loss and Take Profit Levels: In ICT teachings, swing levels represent price points with expected clusters of buy or sell orders. Traders can target these liquidity levels/pools for position accumulation or distribution, using swing points to define stop loss and take profit levels in their trades.
Overall, swing points provide valuable information about market dynamics and can assist traders in making more informed trading decisions.
🔹 Logic of Validation
The validation process in this script determines whether a detected market structure shift or break represents a confirmed breakout or a sweep.
The breakout is confirmed when the close price is significantly outside the deviation range of the last detected structural price. This deviation range is defined by the 17-period Average True Range (ATR), which creates a buffer around the detected market structure shift or break.
A sweep occurs when the price breaches the structural level within the deviation range but does not confirm a breakout. In this case, the label is updated to 'SWEEP.'
A visual box is created to represent the price range where the breakout or sweep occurs. If the validation process continues, the box is updated. This box visually highlights the price range involved in a sweep, helping traders identify liquidity events on the chart.
🔶 SETTINGS
The settings for Short-Term, Intermediate-Term, and Long-Term Structures are organized into groups, allowing users to customize swing points, market structures, and visual styles for each.
🔹 Structures
Swings and Size: Enables or disables the display of swing highs and lows, assigns icons to represent the structures, and adjusts the size of the icons.
Market Structures: Toggles the visibility of market structure lines.
Market Structure Validation: Enable or disable validation to distinguish true breakouts from liquidity sweeps.
Market Structure Labels: Displays or hides labels indicating the type of market structure.
Line Style and Width: Allows customization of the style and width of the lines representing market structures.
Swing and Line Colors: Provides options to adjust the colors of swing icons, market structure lines, and labels for better visualization.

Daytrade Forex Scalper TwinPulse Auction Timer IndicatorWhat this indicator is
TwinPulse Auction Timer is a multi component execution aid designed for liquid markets. It looks for two families of opportunities
Breakouts that leave a compression area after a fresh sweep
Reversals that trigger after a sweep with strong wick polarity
It does not try to predict future prices. It measures present auction conditions with transparent rules and shows you when those conditions align. You get a simple table that says LONG SHORT or WAIT, optional session shading, clean entry and exit level visuals, and alerts you can wire to your workflow.
Why it is different
Most tools show a single signal. TwinPulse combines several independent signals into an Edge Score that you can tune. The components are
• Pulse. A signed measure of wick asymmetry with candle body direction
• Compression. Current true range compared with an average range
• Sweep timer. Bars elapsed since the most recent sweep of a prior high or low
• Bias. Direction of a higher timeframe candle
• Regime. Efficiency ratio and the relation of micro to macro volatility
• Location. Distance from the daily anchored VWAP
• Session. London and New York filter by time windows
Each component is visible in the inputs and in the table so you can understand why a suggestion appears. The script uses request.security() with lookahead off in all calls so it does not peek into the future. Shapes may move while a bar is open since price is still forming. They stop moving when the bar closes.
What you will see on the chart
• L and S shapes on entry bars
• An Exit shape at the price where a stop or the runner target would have been hit
• Four horizontal lines while a trade is active
Entry
Stop
TP1 at one R
TP2 at the runner target expressed in R
• Labels anchored to each line so you can instantly read Entry SL TP1 and TP2 with current values
• Optional shading during your session windows
• Optional daily VWAP line
The table in the top right shows
Action LONG SHORT IN LONG IN SHORT or WAIT
Session ON or OFF
Bias UP DOWN or FLAT
Pulse value
Compression value
Edge L percent and Edge S percent
How it works in detail
Pulse
For each bar the script measures up wick minus down wick divided by range and multiplies that by the sign of the candle body. The result is averaged with pulse_len. Positive numbers indicate aggressive buying. Negative numbers indicate aggressive selling. You control the minimum absolute value with pulse_thr.
Compression
Compression is the ratio of current range to an average range. You can choose the range basis. HL SMA uses simple high minus low smoothed by range_len. ATR uses classic True Range smoothed by atr_len. Values below comp_thr indicate a coil.
Sweeps and the timer
A sweep occurs when price trades beyond the highest high or lowest low seen in the previous sweep_len bars. A strict sweep requires a close back inside that prior range. The timer measures how many bars have elapsed since the last sweep. Breakout setups require the timer to exceed timer_thr.
Bias on a confirmation timeframe
A higher timeframe candle is read with confirm_tf. If close is above open bias is UP. If close is below open bias is DOWN. This keeps breakouts aligned with the prevailing drift.
Regime filters
Efficiency ratio measures the straight line change over the sum of absolute bar to bar changes over er_len. It rises in trendy conditions and falls in noise. Minimum efficiency is controlled by er_min.
Micro to macro volatility ratio compares a short lookback average range with a longer lookback average range using your chosen basis. For breakouts you usually want micro volatility to be near or above macro hence mvr_min. For reversals you often want micro volatility that is not overheated relative to macro hence mvr_max_rev.
VWAP distance gate
Daily anchored VWAP is rebuilt from the open of each session. The script computes the absolute distance from VWAP in units of your average range and requires that distance to exceed vwap_dist_thr when use_vwap_gate is true. This keeps entries away from the mean.
Edge Score
Each gate contributes a weight that you control. The script sums weights of the satisfied gates and divides by the sum of all weights to produce an Edge percent for long and an Edge percent for short. You can then require a minimum Edge percent using edge_min_pct. This turns the indicator into a step by step checklist that you can tune to your taste.
Using the indicator step by step
Choose markets and timeframes
The logic is designed for liquid instruments. Major currency pairs, index futures and cash index CFDs, and the most liquid crypto pairs work well. On intraday use one to fifteen minutes for signals and fifteen to sixty minutes for confirmation. On swing use one hour to one day for signals and one day for confirmation.
Decide on entry mode
Breakouts require a compression area and a sweep timer. Reversals require a strict sweep and a strong pulse. If you are unsure leave the default which allows both.
Pick a range basis
For FX and crypto HL SMA is often stable. For indices and single name equities with gaps ATR can adapt better. If results look too reactive increase the window. If results are too slow reduce it.
Tune regime filters
If you trade trend continuation raise er_min and mvr_min. If you trade counter rotation lower them and rely on the reversal path with the strict sweep condition.
Set the VWAP gate
Enabling it helps you avoid entries at the mean. Push the threshold higher on range bound days. Reduce it in strong trend days.
Table driven decision
Watch Action and the Edge percents. If the script says WAIT you can read Pulse and Compression to see what is missing. Often the best trades appear when both Edge percents are well separated and your session switch is ON.
Use the visuals
When a suggestion triggers you will see entry stop and targets. You can mirror the levels in your own workflow or use alerts.
Consider bar close
Signals are computed in real time. For a strict process you can wait until the bar closes to reduce noise.
Inputs explained with quick guidance
Setup
Signal TF chooses where the logic is computed. Leave blank to use the chart.
Confirm TF sets the higher timeframe for bias.
Session filter restricts signals to the London and New York windows you specify.

Pulse window smooths the wick polarity measure.
Average range window controls your base range when you use HL SMA.
Pulse threshold sets the minimum polarity required.
Compression threshold sets the maximum current range relative to average to consider the market coiled.
Expansion timer bars sets how much time has passed since the last sweep before you allow a breakout.
Regime filters
Efficiency ratio length and minimum value keep you out of aimless drift.
Micro and Macro range lengths feed the micro to macro ratio.
Minimum micro to macro for breakouts and maximum micro to macro for reversals steer the two entry families.
VWAP gate and distance threshold keep you away from the mean.
Levels and trade management visuals
Runner target in R sets TP2 as a multiple of initial risk.
Stop distance as average range multiple sets initial risk size for the visuals.
Move stop to entry after one R touch turns on break even logic once price has traveled one risk unit.
Trail buffer as R fraction uses the last sweep as an anchor and keeps a dynamic stop at a chosen fraction of R beyond it.
Cooldown after exit prevents immediate re entries.
Edge Score
Weights for pulse compression timer bias efficiency ratio micro to macro VWAP gate and session let you align the checklist with your style.
Minimum Edge percent to suggest applies a final filter to LONG or SHORT suggestions.
UI
Table and markers switch the compact dashboard and the shapes.
TP and SL lines and labels draw and name each level.
TP1 partial label percent is printed in the TP1 label for clarity.
Session shading helps with focus.
Daily VWAP line is optional.
Alerts
The script provides alerts for Long Short Exit and for Edge percent crossing the threshold on either side. Use them to drive notifications or to sync with webhooks and your broker integration. Alerts trigger in real time and will repaint during a bar. For conservative use trigger on bar close.

These are starting points only. Your instrument and timeframe will require small adjustments.
Limitations and honest warnings
No indicator is perfect. TwinPulse will mark attractive conditions that do not always lead to profitable trades. During economic releases or very thin liquidity the assumptions behind compression and sweeps may fail. In strong gap environments the HL SMA basis may lag while ATR may overreact. Heikin Ashi pulse can help in choppy markets but it will lag during sharp reversals. Session times use the exchange time of your chart. If you switch symbol or exchange verify the windows.
Edge percent is not a probability of profit. It is the fraction of satisfied gates with your chosen weights. Two traders can set different weights and see different Edge readings on the same bar. That is the design. The score is a guide that helps you act with discipline.
This indicator does not place orders or manage real risk. The lines and labels show a model entry a model stop and two model targets built from the average range at entry and from recent swing points. Use them as references and not as hard rules. Always test on historical data and demo first. Past results do not guarantee anything in the future.
Credits and originality
All code in this publication is original and written for this indicator. The concept of the efficiency ratio originates from Perry Kaufman. The use of a daily anchored volume weighted average price is a standard industry tool. The specific combination of pulse from wick polarity strict sweep timing compression and the tunable Edge Score is unique to this script at the time of publication. If you reuse parts of the open source code in your own work remember to credit the author and contribute meaningful improvements.
How to read the table at a glance
Action reflects your current state.
IN LONG or IN SHORT appears while a trade is active.
LONG or SHORT appears when conditions for entry are met and the Edge threshold is satisfied.
WAIT appears when at least one gate is missing.
Session shows ON during your chosen windows.
Bias shows the color of the confirmation candle.
Pulse is the smoothed polarity number.
Comp shows current range divided by the average range. Values below one mean compression.
Edge L percent and Edge S percent show the long and short checklists as percents.
Final thoughts
Markets move because orders accumulate at certain prices and at certain times. The indicator tries to measure two things that often matter at those turning points. One is the existence of a hidden imbalance revealed by wick polarity and by sweeps of prior extremes. The other is the presence of energy stored in a coil that can release in the direction of a drift. Neither force guarantees profit. Together they can improve your selection and your timing.
Use the defaults for a few days so you learn the personality of the signals. After that adjust one group at a time. Start with the session filter and the Edge threshold. Then tune compression and the timer. Finally adjust the regime filters. Keep notes. You will learn which weights matter for your market and timeframe. The result is a process you can apply with consistency.

**ACD Indicator: Mark Fisher's Opening Range Breakout Strategy**
**Overview**
The ACD system, developed by legendary trader Mark Fisher in his book *The Logical Trader*, is a powerful methodology for identifying high-probability trade setups based on the market's opening range (OR). This indicator automates Layers 1 and 2 of the ACD strategy, helping you spot breakout opportunities, trend direction, and key support/resistance levels. Perfect for day traders, scalpers, and swing traders in forex, stocks, futures, or crypto.
**How It Works**
1. **Opening Range (OR)**: Calculated from the high/low of the first X minutes (default: 30-60 min) of major sessions (e.g., Tokyo, London, New York).
2. **A Levels**: Drawn at a percentage (default: 0.5% of OR range or ATR-based) above/below the OR. A breakout above A-Up signals a bullish setup; below A-Down signals bearish.
3. **C Levels**: Wider levels (default: 1-2% or ATR multiplier) for stronger confirmation. Breakouts here confirm trend strength and filter fakeouts.
4. **Pivot Ranges**: Includes daily and N-day pivots to gauge overall market bias (above pivots = bullish; below = bearish).
**Key Features**
- **Customizable Sessions**: Tokyo (00:00-01:00 GMT), London (08:00-09:00 GMT), New York (13:30-14:30 GMT) – adjustable.
- **ATR Integration**: Uses Average True Range for dynamic A/C levels (period: 14 by default).
- **Visual Alerts**: Color-coded lines (green for bullish, red for bearish) + optional labels for breakouts.
- **Pivot Display**: Show/hide daily or multi-day pivots with customizable colors.
- **Risk Management**: Built-in stop-loss suggestions based on OR width.
**Trading Rules**
- **Bullish Setup**: Price breaks and holds above A-Up → Enter long at C-Up confirmation. Target: Next pivot or 1:2 risk-reward.
- **Bearish Setup**: Price breaks below A-Down → Enter short at C-Down.
- **Avoid Fakeouts**: Wait for stabilization (e.g., close above/below level).
- **Trend Filter**: Combine with PMA (Pivot Moving Average) for Layer 3 confirmation (search "ACD PMA" in TradingView).
**Settings Guide**
- **OR Timeframe**: Session start time and duration (e.g., 30 min).
- **A Multiplier (%)**: Distance for A levels (default: 0.5).
- **C Multiplier (%)**: Distance for C levels (default: 1.0).
- **ATR Period**: For volatility-based levels (default: 14).
- **Show Pivots**: Toggle daily/N-day ranges.
This indicator balances supply/demand by analyzing volume and price action within the opening range. Backtest on your favorite pairs (e.g., EURUSD, BTCUSD) and adjust for your style. Not financial advice – always use proper risk management!

SuperSmoother MA OscillatorSuperSmoother MA Oscillator - Ehlers-Inspired Lag-Minimized Signal Framework
Overview
The SuperSmoother MA Oscillator is a crossover and momentum detection framework built on the pioneering work of John F. Ehlers, who introduced digital signal processing (DSP) concepts into technical analysis. Traditional moving averages such as SMA and EMA are prone to two persistent flaws: excessive lag, which delays recognition of trend shifts, and high-frequency noise, which produces unreliable whipsaw signals. Ehlers’ SuperSmoother filter was designed to specifically address these flaws by creating a low-pass filter with minimal lag and superior noise suppression, inspired by engineering methods used in communications and radar systems.
This oscillator extends Ehlers’ foundation by combining the SuperSmoother filter with multi-length moving average oscillation, ATR-based normalization, and dynamic color coding. The result is a tool that helps traders identify market momentum, detect reliable crossovers earlier than conventional methods, and contextualize volatility and phase shifts without being distracted by transient price noise.
Unlike conventional oscillators, which either oversimplify price structure or overload the chart with reactive signals, the SuperSmoother MA Oscillator is designed to balance responsiveness and stability. By preprocessing price data with the SuperSmoother filter, traders gain a signal framework that is clean, robust, and adaptable across assets and timeframes.
Theoretical Foundation
Traditional MA oscillators such as MACD or dual-EMA systems react to raw or lightly smoothed price inputs. While effective in some conditions, these signals are often distorted by high-frequency oscillations inherent in market data, leading to false crossovers and poor timing. The SuperSmoother approach modifies this dynamic: by attenuating unwanted frequencies, it preserves structural price movements while eliminating meaningless noise.
This is particularly useful for traders who need to distinguish between genuine market cycles and random short-term price flickers. In practical terms, the oscillator helps identify:
Early trend continuations (when fast averages break cleanly above/below slower averages).
Preemptive breakout setups (when compressed oscillator ranges expand).
Exhaustion phases (when oscillator swings flatten despite continued price movement).
Its multi-purpose design allows traders to apply it flexibly across scalping, day trading, swing setups, and longer-term trend positioning, without needing separate tools for each.
The oscillator’s visual system - fast/slow lines, dynamic coloration, and zero-line crossovers - is structured to provide trend clarity without hiding nuance. Strong green/red momentum confirms directional conviction, while neutral gray phases emphasize uncertainty or low conviction. This ensures traders can quickly gauge the market state without losing access to subtle structural signals.
How It Works
The SuperSmoother MA Oscillator builds signals through a layered process:
SuperSmoother Filtering (Ehlers’ Method)
At its core lies Ehlers’ two-pole recursive filter, mathematically engineered to suppress high-frequency components while introducing minimal lag. Compared to traditional EMA smoothing, the SuperSmoother achieves better spectral separation - it allows meaningful cyclical market structures to pass through, while eliminating erratic spikes and aliasing. This makes it a superior preprocessing stage for oscillator inputs.
Fast and Slow Line Construction
Within the oscillator framework, the filtered price series is used to build two internal moving averages: a fast line (short-term momentum) and a slow line (longer-term directional bias). These are not plotted directly on the chart - instead, their relationship is transformed into the oscillator values you see.
The interaction between these two internal averages - crossovers, separation, and compression - forms the backbone of trend detection:
Uptrend Signal : Fast MA rises above the slow MA with expanding distance, generating a positive oscillator swing.
Downtrend Signal : Fast MA falls below the slow MA with widening divergence, producing a negative oscillator swing.
Neutral/Transition : Lines compress, flattening the oscillator near zero and often preceding volatility expansion.
This design ensures traders receive the information content of dual-MA crossovers while keeping the chart visually clean and focused on the oscillator’s dynamics.
ATR-Based Normalization
Markets vary in volatility. To ensure the oscillator behaves consistently across assets, ATR (Average True Range) normalization scales outputs relative to prevailing volatility conditions. This prevents the oscillator from appearing overly sensitive in calm markets or too flat during high-volatility regimes.
Dynamic Color Coding
Color transitions reflect underlying market states:
Strong Green : Bullish alignment, momentum expanding.
Strong Red : Bearish alignment, momentum expanding.
These visual cues allow traders to quickly gauge trend direction and strength at a glance, with expanding colors indicating increasing conviction in the underlying momentum.
Interpretation
The oscillator offers a multi-dimensional view of price dynamics:
Trend Analysis : Fast/slow line alignment and zero-line interactions reveal trend direction and strength. Expansions indicate momentum building; contractions flag weakening conditions or potential reversals.
Momentum & Volatility : Rapid divergence between lines reflects increasing momentum. Compression highlights periods of reduced volatility and possible upcoming expansion.
Cycle Awareness : Because of Ehlers’ DSP foundation, the oscillator captures market cycles more cleanly than conventional MA systems, allowing traders to anticipate turning points before raw price action confirms them.
Divergence Detection : When oscillator momentum fades while price continues in the same direction, it signals exhaustion - a cue to tighten stops or anticipate reversals.
By focusing on filtered, volatility-adjusted signals, traders avoid overreacting to noise while gaining early access to structural changes in momentum.
Strategy Integration
The SuperSmoother MA Oscillator adapts across multiple trading approaches:
Trend Following
Enter when fast/slow alignment is strong and expanding:
A fast line crossing above the slow line with expanding green signals confirms bullish continuation.
Use ATR-normalized expansion to filter entries in line with prevailing volatility.
Breakout Trading
Periods of compression often precede breakouts:
A breakout occurs when fast lines diverge decisively from slow lines with renewed green/red strength.
Exhaustion and Reversals
Oscillator divergence signals weakening trends:
Flattening momentum while price continues trending may indicate overextension.
Traders can exit or hedge positions in anticipation of corrective phases.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Apply the oscillator on higher timeframes to confirm the directional bias.
Use lower timeframes for refined entries during compression → expansion transitions.
Technical Implementation Details
SuperSmoother Algorithm (Ehlers) : Recursive two-pole filter minimizes lag while removing high-frequency noise.
Oscillator Framework : Fast/slow MAs derived from filtered prices.
ATR Normalization : Ensures consistent amplitude across market regimes.
Dynamic Color Engine : Aligns visual cues with structural states (expansion and contraction).
Multi-Factor Analysis : Combines crossover logic, volatility context, and cycle detection for robust outputs.
This layered approach ensures the oscillator is highly responsive without overloading charts with noise.
Optimal Application Parameters
Asset-Specific Guidance:
Forex : Normalize with moderate ATR scaling; focus on slow-line confirmation.
Equities : Balance responsiveness with smoothing; useful for capturing sector rotations.
Cryptocurrency : Higher ATR multipliers recommended due to volatility.
Futures/Indices : Lower frequency settings highlight structural trends.
Timeframe Optimization:
Scalping (1-5min) : Higher sensitivity, prioritize fast-line signals.
Intraday (15m-1h) : Balance between fast/slow expansions.
Swing (4h-Daily) : Focus on slow-line momentum with fast-line timing.
Position (Daily-Weekly) : Slow lines dominate; fast lines highlight cycle shifts.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Trending environments with moderate-to-high volatility.
Assets with steady liquidity and clear cyclical structures.
Reduced Effectiveness:
Flat/choppy conditions with little directional bias.
Ultra-short timeframes (<1m), where noise dominates.
Integration Guidelines
Confluence : Combine with liquidity zones, order blocks, and volume-based indicators for confirmation.
Risk Management : Place stops beyond slow-line thresholds or ATR-defined zones.
Dynamic Trade Management : Use expansions/contractions to scale position sizes or tighten stops.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : Filter lower-timeframe entries with higher-timeframe momentum states.
Disclaimer
The SuperSmoother MA Oscillator is an advanced trend and momentum analysis tool, not a guaranteed profit system. Its effectiveness depends on proper parameter settings per asset and disciplined risk management. Traders should use it as part of a broader technical framework and not in isolation.
Simple Pivot Zones (Error-free) — v11. Core Idea
The indicator we built is a “pivot-based zone detector with breakout signals.”
It does three things:
1. Finds important swing highs and swing lows in price (pivots).
2. Creates support and resistance zones around those pivots using volatility (ATR).
3. Watches price action to see if those zones get broken, then gives signals.
________________________________________
2. What is a Pivot?
A pivot high happens when the price makes a local peak — a bar is higher than the bars around it.
A pivot low happens when the price makes a local dip — a bar is lower than the bars around it.
These are natural turning points in the market, showing where buyers or sellers had strong control temporarily. Traders often use them to draw support (pivot lows) and resistance (pivot highs).
________________________________________
3. Why Use ATR for Zones?
ATR (Average True Range) measures the average volatility of a market. Instead of drawing just a flat line at the pivot, we create a zone above and below it, sized according to ATR.
Example:
• If ATR is 20 points and zone size is 0.5, then the zone extends 10 points above and below the pivot level.
This turns thin “lines” into thicker areas of interest. Real markets don’t respect razor-thin levels, but zones are more realistic.
________________________________________
4. How Support & Resistance Zones Work
• Resistance zones are created at pivot highs. They mark where sellers were strong before.
• Support zones are created at pivot lows. They mark where buyers were strong before.
Over time, these zones extend forward until the price interacts with them.
________________________________________
5. Breakout Detection
The indicator checks whether the price closes beyond the last pivot high or low:
• If price closes above the last pivot high, it means buyers have broken resistance.
• If price closes below the last pivot low, it means sellers have broken support.
These moments are significant because they often trigger trend continuation.
________________________________________
6. Parameters It Uses
1. Pivot Length – how many bars to look back and forward to confirm a pivot. A higher length makes pivots less frequent but stronger.
2. ATR Length and Multiplier – defines the size of the zones (wider zones in more volatile markets).
3. Max Zones to Keep – avoids clutter by keeping only the most recent zones.
4. Colors & Styling – helps traders visually separate bullish and bearish zones.
________________________________________
7. How It Helps Traders
• Visual clarity: Instead of guessing support and resistance, the chart automatically highlights them.
• Dynamic adjustment: Zones adapt to volatility using ATR, making them useful in both calm and volatile markets.
• Breakout signals: Traders get notified when price actually breaks key levels, instead of reacting late.
• Cleaner charts: Instead of dozens of hand-drawn lines, the tool manages zones for you, deleting old ones.
________________________________________
8. The Logic in One Sentence
It finds important swing highs and lows, turns them into support/resistance zones scaled by volatility, and alerts you when the market breaks through them.
________________________________________
👉 In practice, this helps traders spot where the market is likely to bounce or break, and gives a framework to plan trades — for example, buying on bullish breakouts or selling on bearish breakouts.

Chartlense Dashboard (Data, Trend & Levels)Chartlense Dashboard (Data, Trend & Levels)
Overview
This dashboard is designed to solve two common problems for traders: chart clutter and the manual drawing of support and resistance levels . It consolidates critical data from multiple indicators into a clean table overlay and automatically plots the most relevant S&R levels based on recent price action. The primary goal is to provide a clear, at-a-glance overview of the market's structure and data.
It offers both a vertical and horizontal layout to fit any trader's workspace.
Key Concepts & Calculations Explained
This indicator is more than a simple collection of values; it synthesizes data to provide unique insights. Here’s a conceptual look at how its core components work:
Automatic Support & Resistance (Pivot-Based):
The dashed support (green) and resistance (red) lines are not manually drawn. They are dynamically calculated based on the most recent confirmed pivot highs and pivot lows . A pivot is a foundational concept in technical analysis that identifies potential turning points in price action.
How it works: A pivot high is a candle whose `high` is higher than a specific number of candles to its left and right (the "Pivot Lookback" is set to 5 by default in the settings). A pivot low is the inverse. By automatically identifying these confirmed structural points, the script visualizes the most relevant levels of potential supply and demand on the chart.
Relative Volume (RVOL):
This value in the table is not the standard volume. It measures the current bar's volume against its recent average (specifically, `current volume / 10-period simple moving average of volume`).
Interpretation: A reading above 2.0 (indicated by green text) suggests that the current volume is more than double the recent average. This technique is used to identify significant volume spikes, which can add conviction to breakouts or signal potential market climaxes.
Consolidated Data for Context:
Other values displayed in the table, such as the EMAs (9, 20, 200) , Bollinger Bands (20, 2) , RSI (14) , MACD (12, 26, 9) , and VWAP (on intraday charts), use their standard industry calculations. They are included to provide a complete contextual picture without needing to load each indicator separately, saving valuable chart space.
How to Use This in Your Trading
This dashboard is designed as a tool for confluence and context , not as a standalone signal generator. Here are some ways to integrate it into your analysis workflow:
As a Trend Filter: Before considering a trade, quickly glance at the EMAs and the MACD values in the table. A price above the key EMAs and a positive MACD can serve as a quick confirmation that you are aligned with the dominant trend.
To Validate Breakouts: When the price is approaching a key Resistance level (red pivot line), watch the RVOL value . A reading above 2.0 on the breakout candle adds significant confirmation that the move is backed by strong interest. The same logic applies to breakdowns below a support level.
To Spot Potential Reversals: Confluence is key. For example, if the price is testing a Support level (green pivot line) AND the RSI in the table is approaching oversold levels (e.g., near 30), it can signal a higher probability reversal setup.
About This Indicator
This indicator was developed by the team at ChartLense to help traders declutter their charts and focus on the data that matters. We believe in making complex analysis more accessible and organized. We hope this free tool is a valuable addition to your trading process.

Capiba Ultimate Suite (RSI, MA Cloud & Volatility)
🇬🇧 English
Summary
This indicator, Capiba Ultimate Suite, is a powerful compilation of various open-source technical analysis tools, refined and integrated into a single, cohesive, and functional package. The goal is to provide a complete system with clear entry and exit signals, ideal for traders operating in trending and volatile markets.
The combination of a custom momentum oscillator (Ultimate RSI), a moving average cloud for trend definition, and a volatility oscillator for range analysis transforms this script into a true trading suite.
Disclaimer: This indicator is most effective in markets with a defined trend (bullish or bearish) and may generate less reliable signals during periods of strong consolidation.
Components and How to Use
Ultimate RSI with Crossover Signals (Entries and Exits)
What it is: A variation of the classic RSI, designed to be more reactive to price movements.
Entry Signals (Buy): A green arrow (▲) appears below the candle when the Ultimate RSI line crosses above its momentum line (EMA). This is a signal of a potential start of an upward move.
Exit Signals (Sell): A red arrow (▼) appears above the candle when the Ultimate RSI crosses below its momentum line. This is a signal of potential weakening or trend reversal.
Moving Average Cloud (Trend Filter)
What it is: A cloud formed by the space between a short-term moving average (default 55) and a long-term one (default 233).
How to use for signal validation:
Uptrend: When the cloud is green (Short MA > Long MA), buy signals (▲) are strengthened. Sell signals can be seen as partial profit-taking.
Downtrend: When the cloud is red (Short MA < Long MA), sell signals (▼) are strengthened. Buy signals should be treated with extreme caution as they are against the main trend.
Candle Coloring (Quick Momentum Reading)
Lime Green: Strong bullish momentum (RSI > 50 and above its EMA).
Red: Strong bearish momentum (RSI < 50 and below its EMA).
Blue: Overbought level reached.
Yellow: Oversold level reached.
Volatility Ruler (Breakout Analysis)
What it is: The green (high) and red (low) lines mark the range of the last 'N' candles. The Vol: X.XX label on the right measures the current volatility against its historical average.
How to use:
Vol < 1.00: Contracting volatility ("Squeeze"). The market is "coiling the spring." Watch for an impending breakout of the range lines.
Vol > 1.00: Expanding volatility. Confirms the strength of a breakout that has already occurred. Very high values may indicate exhaustion.
Use the ruler to identify false breakouts: a candle closing outside the line but with a very low Vol value is more likely to be a false signal.

Linh's Anomaly Radar v2What this script does
It’s an event detector for price/volume anomalies that often precede or confirm moves.
It watches a bunch of patterns (Wyckoff tests, squeezes, failed breakouts, turnover bursts, etc.), applies robust z-scores, optional trend filters, cooldowns (to avoid spam), and then fires:
A shape/label on the bar,
A row in the mini panel (top-right),
A ready-made alertcondition you can hook into.
How to add & set up (TradingView)
Paste the script → Save → Add to chart on Daily first (works on any TF).

STL Stealth Volume z(volume)>5 & ** z(return)
EVR Effort vs Result squeeze z(vol)>3 & z(TR)<−0.5 Heavy effort, tiny spread → absorption
TGV Tight+Heavy (HL/ATR)<0.6 & z(vol)>3 Tight bar + heavy tape → pro activity
CLS Accumulation cluster ≥3 of last 5 bars: up, vol↑, close near high Classic accumulation footprint
GAP Open drive failure Big gap not filled (≥80%) & vol↑ One-sided open stalls → fade risk
BB↑ BB squeeze breakout Squeeze (z(BBWidth)<−1.3) → close > upperBB & vol↑ Regime shift with confirmation
ER↑ Effort→Result inversion Down day on vol then next bar > prior high Demand overwhelms supply
OBV OBV divergence OBV slope up & ** z(ret20)
WER Wide Effort, Opposite Result z(vol)>3, close+1 Selling into strength / distribution
NS No-Supply (Wyckoff) Down bar, HL<0.6·ATR, vol << avg Sellers absent into weakness
ND No-Demand (Wyckoff) Up bar, HL<0.6·ATR, vol << avg Buyers absent into strength
VAC Liquidity Vacuum z(vol)<−1.5 & ** z(ret)
UTD UTAD (failed breakout) Breaks swing-high, closes back below, vol↑ Stop-run, reversal risk
SPR Spring (failed breakdown) Breaks swing-low, closes back above, vol↑ Bear trap, reversal risk
PIV Pocket Pivot Up bar; vol > max down-vol in lookback Quiet base → sudden demand
NR7 Narrow Range 7 + Vol HL is 7-bar low & z(vol)>2 Coiled spring with participation
52W 52-wk breakout quality New 52-wk close high + squeeze + vol↑ High-quality breakouts
VvK Vol-of-Vol kink z(ATR20,200)>0.5 & z(ATR5,60)<0 Long-vol wakes up, short-vol compresses
TAC Turnover acceleration SMA3 vol / SMA20 vol > 1.8 & muted return Participation surging before move
RBd RSI Bullish div Price LL, RSI HL, vol z>1 Exhaustion of sellers
RS↑ RSI Bearish div Price HH, RSI LH, vol z>1 Exhaustion of buyers
Σ Composite Count of all fired signals ≥ threshold High-conviction bar
Placement:
Triangles up (below bar) → bullish-leaning events.
Triangles down (above bar) → bearish-leaning events.
Circles → neutral context (VAC, VvK, Composite).
Key inputs (quick reference)
General
Use Robust Z (MAD): keep on for noisy tickers.
Z Lookback (lenZ): 60 default; 120 if you want fewer alerts.
Trend filter: when on, bullish signals require close > SMA(tfLen), bearish require <.
Cooldown: prevents repeated firing of the same signal within N bars.
Phase-1 thresholds (core)
Stealth: vol z > 5, |ret z| < 1.
EVR: vol z > 3, TR z < −0.5.
Tight+Heavy: (HL/ATR) < 0.6, vol z > 3.
Cluster: window=5, min=3 strong bars.
GapFail: gap/ATR ≥1.5, fill <80%, vol z > 2.
BB Squeeze: z(BBWidth)<−1.3 then breakout with vol z > 2.
Eff→Res Up: prev bar heavy down → current bar > prior high.
OBV Div: OBV uptrend + |z(ret20)|<0.3.
Phase-2 thresholds (extras)
WER: vol z > 3, close1.
No-Supply/No-Demand: tight bar & very light volume vs SMA20.
Vacuum: vol z < −1.5, |ret z|>1.5.
UTAD/Spring: swing lookback N (default 20), vol z > 2.
Pocket Pivot: lookback for prior down-vol max (default 10).
NR7: 7-bar narrowest range + vol z > 2.
52W Quality: new 52-wk high + squeeze + vol z > 2.
VoV Kink: z(ATR20,200)>0.5 AND z(ATR5,60)<0.
Turnover Accel: SMA3/SMA20 > 1.8 and |ret z|<1.
RSI Divergences: compare to n bars back (default 14).
How to use it (playbooks)
A) Daily scan workflow
Run on Daily for your VN watchlist.
Turn Composite (Σ) alert on with Σ≥2 or ≥3 to reduce noise.
When a bar fires Σ (or a fav combo like STL + BB↑), drop to 60-min to time entries.
B) Breakout quality check
Look for 52W together with BB↑, TAC, and OBV.
If WER/ND appear near highs → downgrade the breakout.
C) Spring/UTAD reversals
If SPR fires near major support and RBd confirms → long bias with stop below spring low.
If UTD + WER/RS↑ near resistance → short/fade with stop above UTAD high.
D) Accumulation basing
During bases, you want CLS, OBV, TGV, STL, NR7.
A pocket pivot (PIV) can be your early add; manage risk below base lows.
Tuning tips
Too many signals? Raise stealthVolZ to 5.5–6, evrVolZ to 3.5, use Σ≥3.
Fast movers? Lower bbwZthr to −1.0 (less strict squeeze), keep trend filter on.
Illiquid tickers? Keep MAD z-scores on, increase lookbacks (e.g., lenZ=120).
Limitations & good habits
First lenZ bars on a new symbol are less reliable (incomplete z-window).
Some ideas (VWAP magnet, close auction spikes, ETF/foreign flows, options skew) need intraday/external feeds — not included here.
Pine can’t “screen” across the whole market; set alerts or cycle your watchlist.
Quick troubleshooting
Compilation errors: make sure you’re on Pine v6; don’t nest functions in if blocks; each var int must be declared on its own line.
No shapes firing: check trend filter (maybe price is below SMA and you’re waiting for bullish signals), and verify thresholds aren’t too strict.
