ZenAlgo - LevelsThis script combines multiple anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) calculations into a single tool, providing a continuous record of past VWAP levels and highlighting when price has tested them. Typically, VWAP indicators show only the current VWAP for a single anchor period, requiring you to either keep re-anchoring manually or juggle multiple instances of different VWAP tools for each timeframe. By contrast, this script automatically tracks both the ongoing VWAP and previously completed VWAP values, along with real-time detection of “tests” (when price crosses a particular VWAP level). It’s especially valuable for traders who want to see how price has interacted with VWAP over several sessions, weeks, or months—without switching between separate indicators or manually setting anchors.
Below is a comprehensive explanation of each component, why multiple VWAP lines working together can be more informative than a single line, and how to adjust the script for various markets and trading styles:
Primary VWAP vs. Historical VWAP Lines - Standard VWAP indicators typically focus on the current line only. This script also calculates a primary VWAP, but it “locks in” each completed VWAP value when a new time anchor is detected (e.g., new weekly bar, new monthly bar, new session). As a result, you retain an ongoing history of VWAP lines for every completed anchored period. This is more powerful than manually setting up multiple VWAP tools—one for each desired timeframe—because everything is handled in a single script. You avoid chart clutter and the risk of forgetting to reset your manual VWAP at the correct bar.
Why Combine Multiple Anchored VWAP Lines in One Script? - Viewing several anchored VWAP lines together offers synergy . You see not only the current VWAP but also previous ones from different sessions or months, all within the same chart pane. This synergy becomes apparent if multiple historical VWAP lines cluster near the same price level, indicating a potentially significant zone of volume-based support or resistance. Handling this manually would involve repeatedly setting separate VWAP indicators, each reset at specific points, which is time-consuming and prone to error. In this script, the process is automated: as soon as the anchor changes, a completed VWAP line is stored so you can observe how price eventually reacts to it, repeatedly or not at all.
Automated “Test” Detection - Once a historical VWAP line is set, the script tracks when price crosses it in subsequent bars. If the high and low of a bar span that line, the script marks it in red (both the line and its label). It also keeps a counter of how many times each line has been tested. This method goes beyond a simple visual approach by quantifying the retests. Because all these lines are created and managed in one place, you don’t have to manually label the lines or check them one by one.
Advantages Over Manually Setting Multiple VWAPs
You save screen space: Instead of layering several VWAP indicators, each with unique settings, this single script plots them all on one overlay.
Automation: When a new anchor period begins, the script “closes out” the old VWAP and starts a new one. You never need to remember to reset it manually.
Retest Visualization: The script not only draws each line but also changes color and updates the label automatically if a line gets tested. Doing this by hand would be labor-intensive.
Unified Parameters: All settings (e.g., array size, max distance, test count limit) apply uniformly. You can manage them from one place, instead of configuring multiple separate tools.
Extended Insight with Multiple VWAP Lines
Since VWAP reflects the volume-weighted average price for each chosen period, historical lines can show zones where the market had a fair-value consensus in previous intervals. When the script preserves these lines, you see potential support/resistance areas more distinctly. If, for instance, price continually pivots around an old VWAP line, that may reveal a strong volume-based level. With several older VWAP lines on the chart, you gain an immediate sense of where these volume-derived averages have appeared and how price reacted over time. This wider perspective often proves more revealing than a single “current” VWAP line that does not reflect previous anchor sessions.
Handling of Illiquid Markets and Volume Limitations
VWAP is inherently tied to volume data, so its reliability decreases if volume reporting is missing or if the asset trades with very low liquidity. In such cases, a single large trade might momentarily skew the VWAP, resulting in “false” test signals when the high/low range intersects an abnormal price swing. If you suspect the data is incomplete or the market is unusually thin, it’s wise to confirm the validity of these VWAP lines before using them for any decision-making. Additionally, unusual market conditions—like after-hours trading or sudden high-volatility events—may cause VWAP to shift quickly, setting up multiple lines in a short time.
Key User-Configurable Settings
Hide VWAP on Day timeframe and above : Lets you disable the primary VWAP plot on daily or higher timeframes for a cleaner view.
Anchor Period : Select from Session, Week, Month, Quarter, Year, Decade or Century. Controls how frequently the script resets and preserves the VWAP line.
Offset : Moves the current VWAP line by a specified number of bars if you need a shifted perspective.
Max Array Size : Caps how many past VWAP lines the script will remember. Prevents clutter if you’re charting very long histories.
Max Distance : Defines how far back (in bar index units) a line is kept. If a line’s start bar is older than this threshold, it’s removed, keeping the chart uncluttered.
Max Red Labels : Limits the number of tested (red) VWAP lines that appear. If price tests a large number of old lines, only the newest red labels remain once you hit the set limit.
Workflow Overview
As soon as a new anchor period begins (e.g., a new weekly candle if “Week” is chosen), the script ends the current VWAP and stores that final value in its internal arrays.
It creates a dotted line and label representing the completed VWAP, and keeps track of whether it has been tested or not.
Subsequent bars may then cross that line. If a bar’s high/low includes the line’s value, it’s flagged as tested, labeled red, and a test counter increases.
As new anchored periods come, old lines remain visible—unless they fall outside your maxDistance or you exceed the maximum stored line count.
Real-World Benefits
Combining multiple VWAP lines—ranging, for example, from session-based lines for intraday perspectives to monthly or quarterly lines for broader context—provides a layered view of the volume-based fair price. This can help you quickly spot zones where price repeatedly intersects old VWAPs, potentially highlighting where bulls or bears took action historically. Because this script automates the management of all these lines and flags their retests, it removes a great deal of repetitive manual work that would typically accompany multiple, separate VWAP indicators set to different anchors.
Limitations & Practical Use
As with any volume-related tool, the script depends on reliable volume data. Assets trading on smaller venues or during illiquid periods may produce spurious signals. The script does not signal buy or sell decisions; rather, it helps visually map out where volume-weighted averages from previous periods might still be relevant to market behavior. Always combine the insight from these historical VWAP lines with your existing analytical approach or other technical and fundamental tools you use.
Conclusion
This script unifies past and present VWAP lines into one overlay, automatically detecting new anchor resets, storing the final VWAP values, and indicating whenever old lines are retested by price. It offers synergy through the simultaneous display of multiple historical VWAP lines, making it quicker and easier to detect potential support/resistance zones and better reflect changing market volumes over time. You no longer need to manually create, configure, or reset multiple VWAP indicators. Instead, the script handles all aspects of line creation, retest detection, and clutter management, giving you a robust framework to observe how historical VWAP data aligns with current price action.
By understanding the significance of multiple anchored VWAP lines, you can assess market structure from multiple angles in a single view. As always, ensure you confirm the reliability of the volume data for your particular asset and use these lines in conjunction with other analyses to form a well-rounded perspective on current market behavior.

NVOL Normalized Volume & VolatilityOVERVIEW
Plots a normalized volume (or volatility) relative to a given bar's typical value across all charted sessions. The concept is similar to Relative Volume (RVOL) and Average True Range (ATR), but rather than using a moving average, this script uses bar data from previous sessions to more accurately separate what's normal from what's anomalous. Compatible on all timeframes and symbols.
Having volume and volatility processed within a single indicator not only allows you to toggle between the two for a consistent data display, it also allows you to measure how correlated they are. These measurements are available in the data table.
DATA & MATH
The core formula used to normalize each bar is:
( Value / Basis ) × Scale
Value
The current bar's volume or volatility (see INPUTS section). When set to volume, it's exactly what you would expect (the volume of the bar). When set to volatility, it's the bar's range (high - low).
Basis
A statistical threshold (Mean, Median, or Q3) plus a Sigma multiple (standard deviations). The default is set to the Mean + Sigma × 3 , which represents 99.7% of data in a normal distribution. The values are derived from the current bar's equivalent in other sessions. For example, if the current bar time is 9:30 AM, all previous 9:30 AM bars would be used to get the Mean and Sigma. Thus Mean + Sigma × 3 would represent the Normal Bar Vol at 9:30 AM.
Scale
Depends on the Normalize setting, where it is 1 when set to Ratio, and 100 when set to Percent. This simply determines the plot's scale (ie. 0 to 1 vs. 0 to 100).
INPUTS
While the default configuration is recommended for a majority of use cases (see BEST PRACTICES), settings should be adjusted so most of the Normalized Plot and Linear Regression are below the Signal Zone. Only the most extreme values should exceed this area.
Normalize
Allows you to specify what should be normalized (Volume or Volatility) and how it should be measured (as a Ratio or Percentage). This sets the value and scale in the core formula.
Basis
Specifies the statistical threshold (Mean, Median, or Q3) and how many standard deviations should be added to it (Sigma). This is the basis in the core formula.
Mean is the sum of values divided by the quantity of values. It's what most people think of when they say "average."
Median is the middle value, where 50% of the data will be lower and 50% will be higher.
Q3 is short for Third Quartile, where 75% of the data will be lower and 25% will be higher (think three quarters).
Sample
Determines the maximum sample size.
All Charted Bars is the default and recommended option, and ignores the adjacent lookback number.
Lookback is not recommended, but it is available for comparisons. It uses the adjacent lookback number and is likely to produce unreliable results outside a very specific context that is not suitable for most traders. Normalization is not a moving average. Unless you have a good reason to limit the sample size, do not use this option and instead use All Charted Bars .
Show Vol. name on plot
Overlays "VOLUME" or "VOLATILITY" on the plot (whichever you've selected).
Lin. Reg.
Polynomial regressions are great for capturing non-linear patterns in data. TradingView offers a "linear regression curve", which this script uses as a substitute. If you're unfamiliar with either term, think of this like a better moving average.
You're able to specify the color, length, and multiple (how much to amplify the value). The linear regression derives its value from the normalized values.
Norm. Val.
This is the color of the normalized value of the current bar (see DATA & MATH section). You're able to specify the default, within signal, and beyond signal colors. As well as the plot style.
Fade in colors between zero and the signal
Programmatically adjust the opacity of the primary plot color based on it's normalized value. When enabled, values equal to 0 will be fully transparent, become more opaque as they move away from 0, and be fully opaque at the signal. Adjusting opacity in this way helps make difference more obvious.
Plot relative to bar direction
If enabled, the normalized value will be multiplied by -1 when a bar's open is greater than the bar's close, mirroring price direction.
Technically volume and volatility are directionless. Meaning there's really no such thing as buy volume, sell volume, positive volatility, or negative volatility. There is just volume (1 buy = 1 sell = 1 volume) and volatility (high - low). Even so, visually reflecting the net effect of pricing pressure can still be useful. That's all this setting does.
Sig. Zone
Signal zones make identifying extremes easier. They do not signal if you should buy or sell, only that the current measurement is beyond what's normal. You are able to adjust the color and bounds of the zone.
Int. Levels
Interim levels can be useful when you want to visually bracket values into high / medium / low. These levels can have a value anywhere between 0 and 1. They will automatically be multiplied by 100 when the scale is set to Percent.
Zero Line
This setting allows you to specify the visibility of the zero line to best suit your trading style.
Volume & Volatility Stats
Displays a table of core values for both volume and volatility. Specifically the actual value, threshold (mean, median, or Q3), sigma (standard deviation), basis, normalized value, and linear regression.
Correlation Stats
Displays a table of correlation statistics for the current bar, as well as the data set average. Specifically the coefficient, R2, and P-Value.
Indices & Sample Size
Displays a table of mixed data. Specifically the current bar's index within the session, the current bar's index within the sample, and the sample size used to normalize the current bar's value.
BEST PRACTICES
NVOL can tell you what's normal for 9:30 AM. RVOL and ATR can only tell you if the current value is higher or lower than a moving average.
In a normal distribution (bell curve) 99.7% of data occurs within 3 standard deviations of the mean. This is why the default basis is set to "Mean, 3"; it includes the typical day-to-day fluctuations, better contextualizing what's actually normal, minimizing false positives.
This means a ratio value greater than 1 only occurs 0.3% of the time. A series of these values warrants your attention. Which is why the default signal zone is between 1 and 2. Ratios beyond 2 would be considered extreme with the default settings.
Inversely, ratio values less than 1 (the normal daily fluctuations) also tell a story. We should expect most values to occur around the middle 3rd, which is why interim levels default to 0.33 and 0.66, visually simplifying a given move's participation. These can be set to whatever you like and only serve as visual aids for your specific trading style.
It's worth noting that the linear regression oscillates when plotted directionally, which can help clarify short term move exhaustion and continuation. Akin to a relative strength index (RSI), it may be used to inform a trading decision, but it should not be the only factor.
Market Session Times and Volume [Market Spotter]Market Session Times and Volume
Market Session Times
Inputs
The inputs tab consists of timezone adjustment which would be the chosen timezone for the plotting of the market sessions based on the market timings.
Further it contains settings for each box to show/hide and change box colour and timings for Asian, London and New York Sessions.
How it works
The indicator primarily works by marking the session highs and lows for the chosen time in the inputs, each of the sessions can be input a custom time value which would plot the box. It helps to identify the important price levels and the trading range for each individual session.
The midpoint of each session is marked with a dashed line. The indicator also marks a developing session while it being formed as well to identify potential secondary levels.
Usage
It can be used to trade session breakouts, false breaks and also divide the daily movement into parts and identify possible patterns while trading.
2. Volumes
Inputs
The volume part has 2 inputs - Smoothing and Normalisation. The smoothing period can simply be used to take in charge volumes of last X bars and normalisation can be used for calculating relative volumes based on last Y bars.
How it works
The indicator takes into account the buy and sell volumes of last X bars and then displays that as a relative smoothed volume which helps to identify longer term build or distribution of volume. It plots the positive volume from 0 to 100 and negative volume from 0 to -100 which has been normalised. The colors identify gradual increase or decrease in volumes
Usage
It can also be used to trade volume spikes well and can identify potential market shifts
Parent Session Sweeps + Alert Killzone Ranges with Parent Session Sweep
Key Features:
1. Multiple Session Support: The script tracks three major trading sessions - Asia, London, and New York. Users can customize the timing of these sessions.
2. Killzone Visualization: The strategy visually represents each session's range, either as filled boxes or lines, allowing traders to easily identify key price levels.
3. Parent Session Logic: The core of the strategy revolves around identifying a "parent" session - a session that encompasses the range of the following session. This parent session becomes the basis for potential trade setups.
4. Sweep and Reclaim Setups: The strategy looks for price movements that sweep (break above or below) the parent session's high or low, followed by a reclaim of that level. This price action often indicates a potential reversal.
5. Risk-Reward Filtering: Each potential setup is evaluated based on a user-defined minimum risk-reward ratio, ensuring that only high-quality trade opportunities are considered.
6. Candle Close Filter: An optional filter that checks the characteristics of the candle that reclaims the parent session level, adding an extra layer of confirmation to the setup.
7. Performance Tracking: The strategy keeps track of bullish and bearish setup success rates, providing valuable feedback on its performance over time.
8. Visual Aids: The script draws lines to mark the parent session's high and low, making it easy for traders to identify key levels.
How It Works:
1. The script continuously monitors price action across the defined sessions.
2. When a session fully contains the range of the next session, it's identified as a potential parent session.
3. The strategy then waits for price to sweep either the high or low of this parent session.
4. If a sweep occurs, it looks for a reclaim of the swept level within the parameters set by the user.
5. If a valid setup is identified, the script generates an alert and places a trade (if backtesting or running live).
6. The strategy continues to monitor the trade for either reaching the target (opposite level of the parent session) or hitting the stop loss.
Considerations for Signals:
- Sweep: A break of the parent session's high or low.
- Reclaim: A close back inside the parent session range after a sweep.
- Candle Characteristics: Optional filter for the reclaim candle (e.g., bullish candle for long setups).
- Risk-Reward: Each setup must meet or exceed the user-defined minimum risk-reward ratio.
- Session Timing: The strategy is sensitive to the defined session times, which should be set according to the trader's preferred time zone.
This strategy aims to capitalize on institutional order flow and liquidity patterns in the forex market, providing traders with a systematic approach to identifying potential reversal points with favorable risk-reward profiles.
Extended Hours Volume FlagOverview: The Extended Hours Volume Flag Indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who are interested in monitoring and analyzing the volume activity during the extended trading hours—specifically the premarket (4:00 AM to 9:30 AM) and afterhours (4:00 PM to 8:00 PM) sessions. This indicator identifies and flags stocks where the trading volume during these extended hours exceeds 20% of the Average Volume (AVOL) during regular trading hours. Such occurrences often signal unusual activity or potential market-moving events, which can be crucial for informed trading decisions.
Concept: Volume is a critical factor in trading, often providing insights into market sentiment and potential price movements. However, volume during extended hours can be particularly revealing as it may indicate heightened interest or activity outside of the regular trading session. The Extended Hours Volume Flag Indicator is built on the concept that significant volume during premarket or afterhours trading sessions, relative to the average regular session volume, could be an early indicator of upcoming volatility or trends.
How It Works:
Session Segmentation: The indicator distinguishes between regular trading hours (9:30 AM to 4:00 PM) and extended hours (premarket and afterhours). It accumulates the trading volume separately for these sessions.
Volume Comparison: It calculates the Average Volume (AVOL) over a user-defined period (default is 14 days) during regular trading hours. It then compares the extended hours volume to this AVOL.
Flagging Condition: If the volume during the extended hours exceeds 20% of the AVOL, the indicator flags the stock with a warning symbol on the chart. This visual cue helps traders quickly identify stocks with potentially significant afterhours or premarket activity.
Reset Mechanism: The accumulated volumes reset at the start of the new trading day, ensuring accurate calculations for each day.
Usage: This indicator is ideal for traders who are looking for early signals of market activity outside regular hours, which might not be immediately visible when looking solely at price action. It is particularly useful for day traders and swing traders who want to keep an eye on potential premarket or afterhours catalysts.
Session VWAPS [QuantVue]The Session VWAPS indicator is a designed for traders to enhance their trading analysis by incorporating Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) anchored to custom-defined trading sessions.
This indicator automatically plots VWAPs at three critical points of a user defined session:
🔹session start
🔹session high
🔹session low
Additionally, it provides the option to display the VWAPs from previous sessions, offering a look at potential areas of support and resistance.
Anchored VWAP, or Anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price, is a technical analysis tool used to determine the average price of a stock weighted by volume, starting from a specific point in time chosen by the analyst.
Unlike traditional VWAP, which starts at the beginning of the trading session, the anchored VWAP allows traders to select any point on the chart, such as a significant event, price low, high, or a breakout, to begin the calculation.
VWAP incorporates price and volume in a weighted average and can be used to identify areas of support and resistance on the chart.
Indicator Features:
Custom Session Definition:
Users can define their own trading sessions by specifying start and end times, allowing for tailored analysis according to individual trading strategies or market hours.
Anchored VWAP at Three Key Points:
🔹Session Start VWAP: This VWAP is anchored at the start of the defined session.
🔹Session High VWAP: Anchored at the highest price point within the session.
🔹Session Low VWAP: Anchored at the lowest price point within the session.
Previous Session VWAPs:
The indicator can display VWAPs from the previous session, allowing traders to spot potential areas of support and resistance.

Previous and Premarket High/Low IndicatorDescription:
The "Previous and Premarket High/Low" indicator is designed to help traders identify key levels during the premarket, postmarket, and regular trading sessions. It highlights the highest and lowest prices during the premarket session and the previous trading day, providing critical levels for intraday trading strategies.
Features:
Customizable Display Settings: Users can adjust the colors, line styles, and line widths for the premarket and previous day high/low levels.
Session Labels: Clear labels indicating premarket and postmarket sessions for easy identification.
Alerts: Set alerts for significant price movements, such as new highs or lows during premarket and previous trading sessions.
Session ZonesHow is this different?
After reviewing a handful of session zone based indicators I decided to create this one not seeing exactly what I wanted, even this one only comes partially to my goals. This indicator will add session coloring on the chart in a vertical orientation, up to five sessions currently can be utilized. Timezones can be supplied that are compatible with Trading View so that session times specified in settings can be non-market timezone specific. In a future update I plan to add alerts for price reaching certain sessions, styling of the session zones may change overtime as PineScript feature enhancement allows.
How to use this?
Supply session ranges, color and disable any unneeded, the table at the top right will display whether or not price action is in or out of enabled sessions.
Which market is it meant for?
Any market.
What market conditions does this apply to?
Any condition.
Past and Upcoming Forex and NYSE Start/End Bar HighlighterThis script highlights the start and end of past sessions and also for upcoming sessions of the current day. Additionally, the start/end bars of the current day can be marked with a text label.
Time zone parameters are available for all time parameters, so that local exchange times can be configured, without the need for manual time zone or daylight saving time (DST) adjustments. Tradingview’s internal time calculations take care of the conversion.
For ease of use, the script comes preconfigured with the start/end times of the Forex and NYSE trading sessions. If you need more highlighted bars, just add the script multiple times and adapt the configuration as needed.
MA Streak Can Show When a Run Is Getting Long in the ToothMoving averages are one of the most common indicators in the world of technical analysis. And they’re often the ingredients of more complex indicators like MACD.
Today’s script shows how long prices have been moving in a given direction. Similar to our earlier Price Streak script, MA Streak counts the number of sessions that the average is rising or falling. It then plots the result in green (positive, rising) or red (negative, falling).
Because it uses a moving average instead of individual candles, this smooths out short-term noise to illustrate how long prices have been moving in a given direction.
Users can designate which price value (open, high, low, etc) to use under the Source input. They can also chose one of five moving average types. (See the code for a complete guide.)
Today’s chart shows that the S&P 500’s 10-day simple moving average (SMA) has been rising for 36 sessions. It’s the longest upside run since March 2019. Given the fact that the index is flirting with its pre-Covid highs, MA Streak may suggest the current rally is getting long in the tooth.
It's also noteworthy that the coronavirus correction in February and March saw the 10-day SMA drop for 24 straight sessions, which was its longest decline since June 2010.
Breakout/Breakdown Indicator (30 Min Range) by InvestYourAsset👉The indicator provided here is a technical analysis indicator for TradingView users that identifies potential breakout and breakdown opportunities on the initial 30-minute range in every trading session.
👉The indicator high and low of the initial 30-minute period and plotting them as horizontal lines on the chart. The high is marked in green line and the low is marked in red line.
📈The indicator then generates buy and sell signals based on whether the current close price crosses above or below the previous 30-minute high and low, respectively.
📢The indicator also has two inputs:
👉 sessionStartHour : The hour at which the trading session begins. The default value is 9, However users can change the time according to their own trading style.
👉 sessionStartMinute : The minute at which the trading session begins. The default value is 0.
These inputs can be used to adjust the indicator to the specific trading session that you are interested in.
✅How to use the Indicator:
👉To use the 30 Minute Breakout/Breakdown Indicator, simply add it to your chart and configure the inputs to your liking. Once the indicator is added to the chart, it will plot the 30-minute high and low as horizontal lines, as well as generate buy and sell signals based on the current close price.
✅Here is a step-by-step guide:
📈Open TradingView and select the chart that you want to add the indicator to.
📈Click on the "Indicators" tab and search for "30 Minute Breakout/Breakdown Indicator by InvestYourAsset".
📈Click on the indicator to add it to your chart.
📈Configure the inputs to your liking. The default values are typically fine, but you can experiment with different values to see what works best for you.
📈Once you are satisfied with the settings, click on the "Apply" button.
📈The indicator will now be displayed on your chart. You will see two horizontal lines representing the previous 30-minute high and low, as well as triangles representing buy and sell signals.
✅How to interpret the signals:
📈Buy signal : A buy signal is generated when the current close price crosses above the previous 30-minute high. This suggests that the price is likely to continue moving higher in the short term.
📈Sell signal : A sell signal is generated when the current close price crosses below the previous 30-minute low. This suggests that the price is likely to continue moving lower in the short term.
👉Traders should remember that the present indicator is just one tool that can be used to identify potential trading opportunities. It is important to use other technical analysis tools and risk management techniques to confirm your trading signals before entering any trades.
✅Things to consider while using the indicator:
📈Look for buy signals in an uptrend and sell signals in a downtrend. This will increase the likelihood of your trades being successful.
📈Place your stop losses below the previous 30-minute low for buy signals and above the previous 30-minute high for sell signals. This will help to limit your losses if the trade goes against you.
📈Consider taking profits at key resistance and support levels. This will help you to lock in your profits and avoid giving them back to the market.

Combined Indicators V2 by DeepsageCombined Indicators V2 – Overview
Combined Indicators V2 is an advanced trading indicator that builds on Combined Indicators V1 by Deepsage and Weighted Market Screener by Deepsage. It is designed to provide precise signals for long and short trades on very low timeframes (1m–5m) while aligning entries with the overall market trend.
Background: The Original Indicators
1. Combined Indicators V1 (Deepsage)
Combines three specialized indicators to generate signals:
Breakout Indicator: Uses Bollinger Bands and volume behavior to identify potential breakout trades.
Price Action Indicator: Detects price interaction with support and resistance levels, incorporating trend, volatility, and candlestick patterns.
Range Trading Indicator: Calculates RSI or Stochastic oscillator and plots signals against predefined upper and lower bands for range-bound markets.
2. Weighted Market Screener (Deepsage)
Monitors the overall market trend using 12 different indicators, each weighted based on its relevance.
Produces a market trend rating: strong buy, buy, neutral, sell, or strong sell.
What’s New in V2
1. Trend-Aligned Entries
In V2, the entry indicators (Breakout, Price Action, Range Trading) only generate signals when the Market Screener confirms the trend (can be turned off).
Long trades: Screener must rate the market as Buy or Strong Buy.
Short trades: Screener must rate the market as Sell or Strong Sell.
2. Session-Based Optimization
V2 supports the NY, London, and Tokyo trading sessions.
Each indicator can be restricted to the session where it performs best (can be turned off):
NY: Breakout Indicator
London: Price Action Indicator
Asia: Range Trading Indicator
3. Additional Enhancements
Market Screener locked to 15-minute timeframe, giving a clear view of the overall trend while entries are still executed on 1-minute charts.
Fully customizable alerts for buy and sell signals.
Settings allow traders to toggle indicators and alerts on/off for maximum flexibility.
Summary
Combined Indicators V2 is a powerful, session-aware, trend-aligned trading tool that merges multiple strategies into one cohesive system. It allows traders to:
Trade low timeframes with precise entries
Only take trades that align with the overall market trend
Optimize strategies based on trading sessions
Customize alerts and indicator settings for personal preferences

Reversal Detection v3.0 - Real-Time Pro (Non-Repainting)═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
REVERSAL DETECTION PRO v3.0 - NON-REPAINTING
Adaptive Zigzag Reversal Detection for Scalpers & Day Traders
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CHART EXAMPLE
The indicator is shown running on MNQ1! (Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100
futures) on a 2-minute chart. The indicator works on all symbols
and timeframes, but is optimized for futures scalping on 1-5
minute charts.
WHY I BUILT THIS
Most reversal indicators out there repaint like crazy, flipping
signals after the fact and making you second-guess every trade.
Plus they're too noisy in choppy markets or way too laggy in
trends, so I kept missing entries or getting faked out. I wanted
something solid that sticks to its guns without repainting and
adapts to volatility without me tweaking it every 5 minutes.
This indicator solves those problems by using an adaptive zigzag
algorithm that adjusts to market volatility automatically. Once a
reversal signal appears, it's locked in place - no repainting, no
disappearing signals. The ATR-based sensitivity system means it
works across different market conditions without constant adjustment.
WHAT YOU'LL SEE ON YOUR CHART
When you add this indicator, here's what shows up:
- GREEN LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bullish reversal
confirmed at swing low
- RED LABELS with "REVERSAL" and price level = Bearish reversal
confirmed at swing high
- HORIZONTAL LINES extending from each reversal = Reference for
stops and targets
- PREVIEW LABELS (lighter colors) = Potential reversals forming in
real-time (optional)
- CANDLE COLORS: Green for bullish trends, red for bearish, purple
for neutral
- PURPLE BOXES = Supply/demand zones marking reversal areas
- INFO TABLE (top corner) = Shows sensitivity, current ATR,
threshold, and trend status
The indicator uses three EMAs (9/14/21 periods) to determine trend
direction, which drives the candle coloring system. This helps you
see whether you're in a bullish, bearish, or choppy market at a
glance.
HOW IT WORKS
The core reversal detection uses a zigzag calculation that tracks
price swings and identifies reversals when price moves by a
dynamically calculated threshold. The reversal amount is determined
by taking the maximum of three values:
1. Percentage-based threshold (adjusts to instrument price level)
2. Absolute price movement threshold (minimum move required)
3. ATR-based threshold (adapts to current volatility)
This multi-factor approach ensures the indicator works consistently
across different assets and market conditions. The non-repainting
mechanism uses confirmed bar data - once a pivot is detected at a
swing high or low, the label and horizontal line are permanently
locked at that exact wick price.
Five sensitivity presets automatically adjust the ATR multiplier:
- Very High (0.8x ATR) = More signals, captures small moves
- High (1.2x ATR) = Active trading
- Medium (2.0x ATR) = Balanced (default)
- Low (2.8x ATR) = Filters noise
- Very Low (3.5x ATR) = Only major reversals
Advanced users can select "Custom" to manually tune ATR multiplier,
percentage threshold, and calculation method.
HOW I USE IT
I mainly trade /MNQ futures on 1-5 minute charts for scalping -
that's my bread and butter. The indicator works decent on other
stuff like stocks or forex too, but I dial sensitivity up for
faster scalps during volatile sessions.
My typical trade setup:
1. Wait for a confirmed REVERSAL label (green for long, red for
short)
2. Check that it lines up with the EMA trend color (bullish candles
for longs, bearish for shorts)
3. If it's a "strong" signal where the reversal hits during a trend
flip, that's my green light
4. Quick check for nearby supply/demand zones to avoid fighting
them
5. Enter with a tight stop below/above the reversal line
6. Target 1:1 or 2:1 risk/reward, usually out in 5-10 minutes
The horizontal lines from each reversal give me logical stop
placement levels, and the supply/demand zones help identify
potential profit targets or areas to avoid.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION
Signal Modes:
- Confirmed Only = Most reliable, only shows locked-in signals
(recommended)
- Confirmed + Preview = Shows both confirmed and potential signals
- Preview Only = For testing/development
Sensitivity Presets:
Start with "Medium" and adjust based on your trading style:
- Scalping volatile sessions = "High" or "Very High"
- Day trading = "Medium"
- Swing trading = "Low" or "Very Low"
Display Options:
- Choose candle display type (Solid, Trend, Bars, Volume, None)
- Show/hide supply/demand zones
- Adjust zone box extension length
- Customize info table position and size
- Control maximum lines displayed
Alert System:
- Bullish/Bearish reversal alerts
- EMA trend change alerts
- Strong signal alerts (reversal + trend alignment)
- "Any reversal" catch-all alert
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST
Don't rely on this indicator alone. Always pair it with your own
price action or volume confirmation, because no indicator is
perfect. Avoid cranking sensitivity too high in ranging markets or
you'll get whipped. Test on demo first, and remember it's
non-repainting so signals are final, but preview mode can tease
you into early entries if you're not patient.
Risk management is key - don't size up just because a signal looks
good. This indicator helps identify potential reversals, but YOU
still need to manage your trades, set proper stops, and control
position size based on your account risk tolerance.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
Unlike simple pivot indicators or manual support/resistance drawing:
- Adapts automatically to volatility changes (ATR-based)
- Never repaints - signals lock in place permanently
- Reversal detection works with trend context (EMAs)
- Supply/demand zones mark key structural levels
- One-click sensitivity adjustment via presets
- Works across multiple timeframes and instruments
The zigzag reversal algorithm adapts to volatility using ATR, while
the EMA system provides trend context so you're not trading
reversals blindly against the trend. The supply/demand zones help
identify key levels where price has reversed before. It's built
specifically for active traders who need reliable, non-repainting
signals.
BEST PRACTICES
✅ DO:
- Start with "Medium" sensitivity on demo account
- Wait for confirmed signals before entering
- Use horizontal lines for stop placement
- Check trend context (candle colors) before trading reversals
- Combine with volume analysis or price action
- Test different sensitivity settings for your instrument
❌ DON'T:
- Trade every signal blindly without context
- Use "Very High" sensitivity in choppy/ranging markets
- Ignore the trend direction (candle colors)
- Enter on preview labels (they can disappear)
- Skip proper risk management
- Overtrade just because signals appear
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- Pine Script Version: v6
- Non-Repainting: Yes (confirmed signals only)
- Uses security(): No (no higher timeframe data)
- Uses non-standard chart types: No (all calculations on real OHLC)
- Alert Compatible: Yes (7 alert types)
- Calculations: Current timeframe only, no lookahead bias
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational purposes only and does not
constitute financial advice. Trading futures, stocks, and forex
involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all
investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Always use proper risk management, never risk more than you can
afford to lose, and test thoroughly on demo accounts before live
trading.

EEQI [Environment Quality Index] PyraTime The Problem: Why Good Strategies Fail
The number one reason traders lose capital is not a lack of strategy—it is forced execution in poor environments.
Most indicators (RSI, MACD, Stochastic) are continuously active, generating signals even when the market is dead, choppy, or chaotic. A breakout strategy that prints money in a trend will destroy your account in a consolidation range. A mean-reversion system that works in chop will fail during a parabolic expansion.
The Solution: PyraTime EEQI The Execution Environment Quality Index (EEQI) is a "Gatekeeper" layer for your trading. It does not tell you what to buy or sell; it tells you if you should be trading at all.
By aggregating Volatility, Price Structure, and Efficiency into a single composite score, the EEQI answers the most critical question in discretionary trading: "Is the market efficient enough to deploy capital right now?"
How It Works: The 3 Core Engines
The EEQI calculates a raw "Environment Score" (from -2 to +4) by analyzing three distinct dimensions of price action.
1. Volatility Engine (Usability)
The Logic: Measures the "Alive-ness" of the market using ATR Percentiles.
The Filter: It detects "Dead Zones" (where price is too flat to hit targets) and "Chaos Zones" (where volatility is too dangerous).
Smart Feature (Parabolic Override): If price moves significantly (>2x ATR) in a single candle, the engine recognizes this as "High Momentum" rather than chaos, unlocking Green signals during breakouts.
2. Structure Engine (Bar Quality)
The Logic: Analyzes the relationship between candle bodies, wicks, and overlap.
The Filter: It penalizes "Barbed Wire" price action—candles with long wicks and high overlap—which indicate indecision and algo-chop.
The Goal: We want to trade during "Clean Flow," where candle bodies are large and overlap is low.
3. Efficiency Engine (Directional Flow)
The Logic: Compares Net Displacement (start-to-finish distance) vs. Total Distance Traveled.
The Filter: Identifies "Whipsaw" conditions where price moves a lot but goes nowhere.
Smart Feature (Velocity Lock): If price travels a massive distance quickly, the efficiency requirement is relaxed to catch explosive moves that might otherwise look "messy."
The "Smart Gatekeepers"
Even if the Core Engines look good, the EEQI applies three final safety checks before granting a PRIME status.
Regime Persistence (Stability Check): The market must hold a high score for a set number of bars (default: 1) before the signal turns Green. This prevents "fake-outs" where a single anomaly candle tricks you into entering a bad trend.
Volume Validation (Liquidity Check): Price movement without participation is a trap. The EEQI checks Relative Volume (RVOL). If volume is below average (e.g., lunch hour, holidays, or late-night sessions), the score is capped at "Fair" or "Low Vol," preventing execution in thin liquidity.
Macro Context (HTF Filter): You cannot trade against the higher timeframe. The EEQI checks the trend and volatility of the Higher Timeframe (default: Weekly). If the macro view is compressed or dead, the local signal is vetoed.
How to Read the HUD
The Dashboard (Bottom Right) gives you an instant read on the market state.
🟢 PRIME (+4): Execution Optimal. The market is trending, efficient, and backed by volume. This is the "Green Light" for your strategy.
🔵 FAIR (+1 to +3): Tradeable. Conditions are decent, but one factor (e.g., volume or structure) is imperfect. Exercise caution.
⚪ NEUTRAL (0): Indecision. The market is transitioning. Stand aside.
🟡 BUILDING: Wait. The market is good, but hasn't proven itself yet (Persistence Check).
🟠 POOR / LOW VOL: Chop. Price is messy or lacking participation.
🔴 AVOID (-2): Danger Zone. The market is either dead flat or violently chaotic. Do not trade.
Settings & Customization
The indicator comes with calibrated presets for different asset classes:
Crypto: Tolerates higher volatility and requires stronger efficiency confirmation.
Forex: Stricter dead-zone filters to handle ranging sessions.
Indices: Balanced settings for standard equity hours.
Disclaimer
This tool is designed for environment analysis only. It does not provide buy or sell signals, entry prices, or stop-losses. It is intended to be used as a filter to improve the performance of your own discretionary strategies.
Daily SMA (Historical Plotting with RTH/ETH, (5))Daily SMA (RTH/ETH Dynamic Session Handling) — Midnight + RTH Open Locks
This indicator plots projected daily Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) on intraday charts by anchoring calculations to a Regular Trading Hours (RTH) daily SMA reference, while visualizing how the daily SMA evolves intraday during Extended Trading Hours (ETH) and RTH sessions.
When daily SMAs are evaluated strictly at the daily timeframe, they do not form a continuous intraday history and may appear flat on historical intraday bars until realtime bars begin updating. This script visualizes the daily SMA’s intraday progression while keeping the underlying daily SMA reference unchanged.
Purpose
Standard daily SMAs plotted on intraday charts are evaluated at the daily timeframe and therefore do not form a continuous intraday history. When charts are refreshed or reloaded, these values may appear flat until realtime data resumes.
This script addresses that visualization limitation by projecting the daily SMA across historical and realtime intraday bars, while keeping the daily SMA reference intact.
How it works
• Daily SMA seed values are sourced exclusively from an RTH-only daily timeframe series.
• At ETH midnight, the SMA seed is locked using completed daily closes from the RTH daily series.
• At the RTH open, the seed is re-locked using the completed RTH daily window.
• After each seed event, the SMA is projected intraday using the active chart bar’s price.
Price semantics
• Historical bars use fully closed candle data only.
• The realtime bar uses the last traded price until the candle closes.
• Once a bar closes, its value is final and does not repaint.
Higher-timeframe data usage
• request.security() is used intentionally to access daily SMA data.
• lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on is used only to reference the developing daily timeframe value during the active session for projection purposes.
• No future bars are accessed and no historical values are retroactively altered.
Data integrity
• SMA seed values are derived solely from the daily timeframe and do not depend on intraday bar history.
• SMA values are computed forward from the locked seed and do not revise prior bars.
• If insufficient daily history exists for a symbol, values safely return na.
Scope and limitations
• Intended for chart timeframes up to and including daily.
• Designed for instruments with defined RTH sessions (such as equities and equity-based products).
• This script does not replace or modify the underlying daily SMA reference; it visualizes an intraday projection anchored to the RTH daily SMA.
Other notes
• Pine Script version: v6
• No future data access
• No historical repainting; only the active realtime bar updates until close
Time Pressure ZonesTime Pressure Zones is a multi‑purpose candle and volume‑based indicator that highlights moments when markets are likely being driven by urgency rather than routine trading flow.
**Overview**
Detects sequences of strong, one‑directional candles accompanied by volume spikes to approximate institutional time pressure (forced buying or selling).
Paints subtle background zones, labels, and a net‑pressure histogram so you can see when aggressive flow is building or exhausting across any instrument and timeframe.
**Core Logic**
A bar is tagged “strong” when its real body occupies at least a user‑defined percentage of the full high‑low range, filtering out indecision candles and long‑wick noise.
Volume is compared to a rolling 20‑bar average; only bars with volume above a configurable multiple are treated as meaningful participation, which makes the tool adapt to different symbols and sessions.
The script counts consecutive bars that are both strong and high‑volume in the same direction, then flags a time‑pressure event once a set fraction of the lookback has been reached (e.g., 2 out of 3, 3 out of 5).
**Visual Outputs**
Background shading: green or red bands mark active bullish or bearish time‑pressure windows without overpowering other tools on the chart.
On‑chart labels: “↑ Time Pressure” and “↓ Time Pressure” appear only on the first bar of a new pressure sequence, ideal for alerts and discretionary entries.
Net Pressure histogram: plots the difference between bullish and bearish streak counts, giving a quick at‑a‑glance sense of which side currently dominates.
**Sessions and News**
Uses UTC‑based logic to highlight London and New York open and close windows, where institutional flows and intraday “deadline” behavior tend to cluster.
Includes a manual News Window toggle so you can mark high‑impact event periods (CPI, FOMC, NFP, etc.), aligning tape‑based urgency with scheduled catalysts.
**How To Use**
Look to join moves when fresh time‑pressure labels print into session opens, breakouts, or key levels, rather than fading them.
Tune the three main inputs per market and timeframe: lower thresholds for choppy or thin markets, and higher body/volume requirements for very liquid symbols like major indices or BTC pairs.
Dynamic ATR-based Renko Overlay - Non repaintingDaily ATR-Based Renko Overlay
Overview
This Pine Script v5 indicator creates a dynamic Renko overlay on your time-based charts (optimized for 1-minute timeframes), using the previous period's ATR from a user-specified higher timeframe (default: 1-hour) to determine brick sizes. Unlike traditional Renko charts, this is an overlay that draws Renko bricks directly on top of your existing candles, allowing you to combine the noise-filtering power of Renko with the full features of time-based charts.
It's designed for traders who want Renko's trend-clarity benefits without switching chart types, especially useful for intraday trading in volatile markets like forex, stocks, or crypto.
Key Features
- Adaptive Brick Sizing: Brick size is calculated as a percentage (default 40%) of the previous period's ATR (Average True Range, default length 14) from the selected higher timeframe (default: 1-hour). This makes bricks volatility-adjusted—larger in high-vol periods to reduce noise, smaller in low-vol for more detail.
- Periodic Recalculation: Resets brick size at the start of each new period based on the user-specified reset timeframe (default: daily), using the prior period's ATR from the chosen timeframe. This ensures relevance without unwanted disruptions.
- Traditional Renko Logic: Uses 1-box reversal (a full brick against the trend to reverse). Bricks form based on closing prices, ignoring time and minor fluctuations.
- Visual Style: Stepped lines with green (up) and red (down) fills for a box-like appearance. Semi-transparent for easy overlay on candles.
- Customizable Inputs:
- ATR Length: Adjust the ATR period (default: 14).
- Percentage of ATR: Fine-tune brick sensitivity (default: 0.4 or 40%; range 0-1).
- ATR Timeframe: Specify the timeframe for ATR calculation (default: "60" for 1-hour; enter as a string like "240" for 4-hour, "D" for daily, etc.).
- Reset Timeframe: Specify the period for recalculating the brick size (default: "D" for daily; enter as a string like "W" for weekly, "M" for monthly, etc.).
How It Works
1. Fetches ATR from the user-specified timeframe via `request.security` for higher-timeframe volatility data.
2. On new periods based on the reset timeframe (or first load), sets brick size to `percent * ATR_HTF`.
3. Tracks Renko "close" and "previous close" to calculate bricks:
- Upward moves add green bricks in multiples of the size.
- Downward moves add red bricks.
- Reversals require a full brick against the direction.
4. Plots and fills create the overlay, updating on each 1-min bar close.
Add it to a 1-minute chart for best results—bricks will adapt periodically while you retain full candle visibility.
Why This Indicator is Helpful
TradingView's native Renko charts are powerful but come with limitations that can frustrate serious traders:
- No Bar Replay: Native Renko doesn't support TradingView's bar replay feature, making it hard to simulate historical trading sessions.
- Inaccurate/Repainting Strategy Testing: Strategies on native Renko can repaint or lack precision due to the non-time-based nature, leading to unreliable backtests.
- Limited Data History: Fast Renko timeframes (e.g., small bricks) often load very little historical data, restricting long-term analysis.
This overlay solves these by building Renko on a time-based chart:
- Full Bar Replay Support: Replay sessions as usual on your 1-min chart—the Renko follows along.
- Accurate, Non-Repainting Testing: Test strategies on the underlying time chart without repainting issues, as Renko is derived from closes.
- Unlimited Data Depth: Access TradingView's full historical data for 1-min charts (up to years of bars), not limited by Renko's data constraints.
- Hybrid Analysis: Overlay Renko on candles to spot trends while using volume, indicators (e.g., RSI, MAs), or drawing tools that don't work well on native Renko.
It's a game-changer for trend-following, breakout strategies, or filtering noise in short-term trades. No more switching charts—get the best of both worlds!
Usage Tips
- Best on 1-min charts for intraday precision, but experiment with others.
- Tune the percentage lower (e.g., 0.3) for more bricks/sensitivity, higher (e.g., 0.5) for fewer/false-signal reduction.
- Adjust the ATR timeframe to match your strategy—e.g., "240" for longer-term volatility or "15" for shorter.
- Customize the reset timeframe for different recalculation frequencies—e.g., "W" for weekly resets to capture broader market shifts, or "240" for every 4 hours.
- Combine with alerts: right now I am experimenting with 90 period EMA and the Renko brick pullbacks to find some EDGE

Ultimate Lines Statistical Backtest @MaxMaseratiUltimate lines (MAs/MACD/VWAP,DWA etc..) Statistical Backtest
This is a comprehensive statistical backtesting tool that allows traders to objectively measure the performance of 27+ different trading lines across multiple timeframes and sessions. Instead of guessing which moving averages, VWAPs, or volume levels actually work for your trading style, this indicator provides hard data showing exactly how price behaves around each line at specific times of day.
The indicator solves a critical problem: most lines create whipsaws in choppy markets, but knowing which lines have the highest continuation rates vs reversal rates at specific session times helps you avoid false signals and focus on setups with proven statistical edges.

🔬 HYBRID DETECTION SYSTEM (ADVANCED)
When enabled, the indicator uses a multi-signal composite scoring system that goes beyond simple percentage movements:
Signal A - % Movement Direction (40% weight):
Measures the strength and direction of price movement. Strong directional moves (>0.8%) score higher, while opposite-direction moves score negatively.
Signal B - Inside Candles (30% weight):
Detects true consolidation by counting how many candles close within a defined range. High inside-candle counts indicate choppy, stalled price action rather than clean continuation.
Signal C - Successive Closes (30% weight):
Tracks momentum persistence by counting consecutive closes in the expected direction. Long streaks (6+ bars) indicate strong follow-through, while breaks in the sequence suggest weakness.
Composite Score Classification:
⭐⭐⭐ Strong (75-100 points): All three signals align - high-confidence pattern
⭐⭐ Moderate (50-75 points): Two signals agree - reliable pattern
⭐ Weak (25-50 points): Mixed signals - lower confidence
⚠️ Strong Stalled (0-25 points): Signals show consolidation/reversal
This provides nuanced pattern detection that identifies not just IF a pattern succeeded, but HOW STRONGLY it performed.
💡 INTERPRETING RESULTS
Good Lines Show:
High continuation % when price is above/below (>60% is strong)
Clean "Kept Going" patterns after reversals (>50% indicates reliable rejection)
Low stalled % (less whipsaw/consolidation)
Consistent patterns across multiple times (validates the line's reliability)
Poor Lines Show:
50/50 continuation vs reversal (coin flip = no edge)
High stalled % (lots of whipsaw/false signals)
Inconsistent patterns across different times (unreliable)
Example Interpretation:
9:30 AM - VWAP Daily (120 samples)
🟢 Above:
Continued↑ 75 (62.5%) ⭐ BEST
Reversed↓ 30 (25.0%)
Meaning: When price is above VWAP Daily at 9:30 AM, it continues higher 62.5% of the time - this is a statistically strong bullish signal for that session time.
🎯 PRACTICAL VALUE
Solves the Whipsaw Problem:
Most moving averages and lines work beautifully in trending markets but create endless false signals in choppy, range-bound conditions. By analyzing specific session times and continuation vs reversal patterns, you can:
Identify high-probability setups: Focus on lines that show >60% continuation at your preferred trading times
Avoid weak signals: Skip lines with high stall rates or 50/50 outcomes
Time your entries better: Know which session times produce the cleanest patterns
Combine complementary lines: Stack multiple high-scoring lines for confluence
Adapt to market conditions: Switch to different lines when market structure changes
Real-World Application:
Instead of blindly trading VWAP crosses or MA bounces, you'll have objective data showing: "At 9:30 AM on ES, when price is above Mid MA + VWAP Daily + Volume POC, it continues higher 68% of the time with strong momentum (⭐⭐⭐)." This transforms discretionary guesswork into data-driven decision making.
