SMC Analysis - Fair Value Gaps (Enhanced)SMC Analysis - Fair Value Gaps (Enhanced) Script Summary
Overview
The "SMC Analysis - Fair Value Gaps (Enhanced)" script, written in Pine Script (version 6), is a technical analysis indicator designed for TradingView to identify and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on a price chart. It supports both the main timeframe and multiple higher timeframes (MTF) for comprehensive market analysis. FVGs are price gaps formed by a three-candle pattern, indicating potential areas of market inefficiency where price may return to fill the gap.
Key Features
FVG Detection:
Identifies bullish FVGs: Occur when the high of a candle two bars prior is lower than the low of the current candle, with the middle candle being bullish (close > open).
Identifies bearish FVGs: Occur when the low of a candle two bars prior is higher than the high of the current candle, with the middle candle being bearish (close < open).
Visualizes FVGs as colored boxes on the chart (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Mitigation Tracking:
Tracks when FVGs are touched (price overlaps the gap range) or mitigated (price fully closes the gap).
Strict Mode: Marks an FVG as mitigated when price touches the gap range.
Normal Mode: Requires a full breakthrough (price crossing the gap’s bottom for bullish FVGs or top for bearish FVGs) for mitigation.
Optionally converts FVG box borders to dashed lines and increases transparency when partially touched.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Support:
Analyzes FVGs on three user-defined higher timeframes (default: 15m, 60m, 240m).
Displays MTF FVGs with distinct labels and slightly more transparent colors.
Ensures no duplicate processing of MTF bars to maintain performance.
Customization Options:
FVG Length: Adjustable duration for how long FVGs are displayed (default: 20 bars).
Show/Hide FVGs: Toggle visibility for main timeframe and each MTF.
Color Customization: User-defined colors for bullish and bearish FVGs (default: green and red).
Display Options: Toggle for showing dashed lines after partial touches and strict mitigation mode.
Performance Optimization:
Limits the number of displayed boxes (50 for main timeframe, 20 per MTF) to prevent performance issues.
Automatically removes older boxes to maintain a clean chart.
Functionality
Visualization: Draws boxes around detected FVGs, with customizable colors and text labels ("FVG" for main timeframe, "FVG " for MTF).
Dynamic Updates: Extends or terminates FVG boxes based on mitigation status and user settings.
Efficient Storage: Uses arrays to manage FVG data (boxes, tops, bottoms, indices, mitigation status, and touch status) separately for main and MTF analyses.
Use Case
This indicator is designed for traders using Smart Money Concepts (SMC) to identify areas of market inefficiency (FVGs) for potential price reversals or continuations. The MTF support allows analysis across different timeframes, aiding in confirming trends or spotting higher-timeframe support/resistance zones.

Smart Breadth [smartcanvas]Overview
This indicator is a market breadth analysis tool focused on the S&P 500 index. It visualizes the percentage of S&P 500 constituents trading above their 50-day and 200-day moving averages, integrates the McClellan Oscillator for advance-decline analysis, and detects various breadth-based signals such as thrusts, divergences, and trend changes. The indicator is displayed in a separate pane and provides visual cues, a summary label with tooltip, and alert conditions to highlight potential market conditions.
The tool uses data symbols like S5FI (percentage above 50-day MA), S5TH (percentage above 200-day MA), ADVN/DECN (S&P advances/declines), and optionally NYSE advances/declines for certain calculations. If primary data is unavailable, it falls back to calculated breadth from advance-decline ratios.
This indicator is intended for educational and analytical purposes to help users observe market internals. My intention was to pack in one indicator things you will only find in a few. It does not provide trading signals as financial advice, and users are encouraged to use it in conjunction with their own research and risk management strategies. No performance guarantees are implied, and historical patterns may not predict future market behavior.
Key Components and Visuals
Plotted Lines:
Aqua line: Percentage of S&P 500 stocks above their 50-day MA.
Purple line: Percentage of S&P 500 stocks above their 200-day MA.
Optional orange line (enabled via "Show Momentum Line"): 10-day momentum of the 50-day MA breadth, shifted by +50 for scaling.
Optional line plot (enabled via "Show McClellan Oscillator"): McClellan Oscillator, colored green when positive and red when negative. Can use actual scale or normalized to fit breadth percentages (0-100).
Horizontal Levels:
Dotted green at 70%: "Strong" level.
Dashed green at user-defined green threshold (default 60%): "Buy Zone".
Dashed yellow at user-defined yellow threshold (default 50%): "Neutral".
Dotted red at 30%: "Oversold" level.
Optional dotted lines for McClellan (when shown and not using actual scale): Overbought (red), Oversold (green), and Zero (gray), scaled to fit.
Background Coloring:
Green shades for bullish/strong bullish states.
Yellow for neutral.
Orange for caution.
Red for bearish.
Signal Shapes:
Rocket emoji (🚀) at bottom for Zweig Breadth Thrust trigger.
Green circle at bottom for recovery signal.
Red triangle down at top for negative divergence warning.
Green triangle up at bottom for positive divergence.
Light green triangle up at bottom for McClellan oversold bounce.
Green diamond at bottom for capitulation signal.
Summary Label (Right Side):
Displays current action (e.g., "BUY", "HOLD") with emoji, breadth percentages with colored circles, McClellan value with emoji, market state, risk/reward stars, and active signals.
Hover tooltip provides detailed breakdown: action priority, breadth metrics, McClellan status, momentum/trend, market state, active signals, data quality, thresholds, recent changes, and a general recommendation category.
Calculations and Logic
Breadth Percentages: Derived from S5FI/S5TH or calculated from advances/(advances + declines) * 100, with fallback adjustments.
McClellan Oscillator: Difference between fast (default 19) and slow (default 39) EMAs of net advances (advances - declines).
Momentum: 10-day change in 50-day MA breadth percentage.
Trend Analysis: Counts consecutive rising days in breadth to detect upward trends.
Breadth Thrust (Zweig): 10-day EMA of advances/total issues crossing from below a bottom level (default 40) to above a top level (default 61.5). Can use S&P or NYSE data.
Divergences: Compares S&P 500 price highs/lows with breadth or McClellan over a lookback period (default 20) to detect positive (bullish) or negative (bearish) divergences.
Market States: Determined by breadth levels relative to thresholds, trend direction, and McClellan conditions (e.g., strong bullish if above green threshold, rising, and McClellan supportive).
Actions: Prioritized logic (0-10) selects an action like "BUY" or "AVOID LONGS" based on signals, states, and conditions. Higher priority (e.g., capitulation at 10) overrides lower ones.
Alerts: Triggered on new occurrences of key conditions, such as breadth thrust, divergences, state changes, etc.
Input Parameters
The indicator offers customization through grouped inputs, but the use of defaults is encouraged.
Usage Notes
Add the indicator to a chart of any symbol (though designed around S&P 500 data; works best on daily or higher timeframes). Monitor the label and tooltip for a consolidated view of conditions. Set up alerts for specific events.
This script relies on external security requests, which may have data availability issues on certain exchanges or timeframes. The fallback mechanism ensures continuity but may differ slightly from primary sources.

BTC Power-Law Decay Channel Oscillator (0–100)🟠 BTC Power-Law Decay Channel Oscillator (0–100)
This indicator calculates Bitcoin’s position inside its long-term power-law decay channel and normalizes it into an easy-to-read 0–100 oscillator.
🔎 Concept
Bitcoin’s long-term price trajectory can be modeled by a log-log power-law channel.
A baseline is fitted, then an upper band (excess/euphoria) and a lower band (capitulation/fear).
The oscillator shows where the current price sits between those bands:
0 = near the lower band (historical bottoms)
100 = near the upper band (historical tops)
📊 How to Read
Oscillator > 80 → euphoric excess, often cycle tops
Oscillator < 20 → capitulation, often cycle bottoms
Works best on weekly or bi-weekly timeframes.
⚙️ Adjustable Parameters
Anchor date: starting point for the power-law fit (default: 2011).
Smoothing days: moving average applied to log-price (default: 365 days).
Upper / Lower multipliers: scale the bands to align with historical highs and lows.
✅ Best Use
Combine with other cycle signals (dominance ratios, macro indicators, sentiment).
Designed for long-term cycle analysis, not intraday trading.
Draw Trend LinesSometimes the simplest indicators help traders make better decisions. This indicator draws simple trend lines, the same lines you would draw manually.
To trade with an edge, traders need to interpret the recent price action, whether it's noisy or choppy, or it's trending. Trend Lines will help traders with that interpretation.
The lines drawn are:
1. lower tops
2. higher bottoms
Because trends are defined as higher lows, or lower highs.
When you see "Wedges", formed by prices chopping between top and bottom trend lines, that's noisy environment not to be traded. When you learn to "stop yourself", you already have an edge.
Often when you see a trend, it's still not too late. Trend will continue until it doesn't. But the caveat is a very steep trend is unlikely to continue, because buying volume is extremely unbalanced to cause the steep trend, and that volume will run out of energy. (Same on the sell side of course)
Trends can reverse, and when price action breaks the trend line, Breakout/Breakdown traders can take this as an entry signal.
Enjoy, and good trading!
Market Spiralyst [Hapharmonic]Hello, traders and creators! 👋
Market Spiralyst: Let's change the way we look at analysis, shall we? I've got to admit, I scratched my head on this for weeks, Haha :). What you're seeing is an exploration of what's possible when code meets art on financial charts. I wanted to try blending art with trading, to do something new and break away from the same old boring perspectives. The goal was to create a visual experience that's not just analytical, but also relaxing and aesthetically pleasing.
This work is intended as a guide and a design example for all developers, born from the spirit of learning and a deep love for understanding the Pine Script™ language. I hope it inspires you as much as it challenged me!
🧐 Core Concept: How It Works
Spiralyst is built on two distinct but interconnected engines:
The Generative Art Engine: At its core, this indicator uses a wide range of mathematical formulas—from simple polygons to exotic curves like Torus Knots and Spirographs—to draw beautiful, intricate shapes directly onto your chart. This provides a unique and dynamic visual backdrop for your analysis.
The Market Pulse Engine: This is where analysis meets art. The engine takes real-time data from standard technical indicators (RSI and MACD in this version) and translates their states into a simple, powerful "Pulse Score." This score directly influences the appearance of the "Scatter Points" orbiting the main shape, turning the entire artwork into a living, breathing representation of market momentum.
🎨 Unleash Your Creativity! This Is Your Playground
We've included 25 preset shapes for you... but that's just the starting point !
The real magic happens when you start tweaking the settings yourself. A tiny adjustment can make a familiar shape come alive and transform in ways you never expected.
I'm genuinely excited to see what your imagination can conjure up! If you create a shape you're particularly proud of or one that looks completely unique, I would love to see it. Please feel free to share a screenshot in the comments below. I can't wait to see what you discover! :)
Here's the default shape to get you started:
The Dynamic Scatter Points: Reading the Pulse
This is where the magic happens! The small points scattered around the main shape are not just decorative; they are the visual representation of the Market Pulse Score.
The points have two forms:
A small asterisk (`*`): Represents a low or neutral market pulse.
A larger, more prominent circle (`o`): Represents a high, strong market pulse.
Here’s how to read them:
The indicator calculates the Pulse Strength as a percentage (from 0% to 100%) based on the total score from the active indicators (RSI and MACD). This percentage determines the ratio of circles to asterisks.
High Pulse Strength (e.g., 80-100%): Most of the scatter points will transform into large circles (`o`). This indicates that the underlying momentum is strong and It could be an uptrend. It's a visual cue that the market is gaining strength and might be worth paying closer attention to.
Low Pulse Strength (e.g., 0-20%): Most or all of the scatter points will remain as small asterisks (`*`). This suggests weak, neutral, or bearish momentum.
The key takeaway: The more circles you see, the stronger the bullish momentum is according to the active indicators. Watch the artwork "breathe" as the circles appear and disappear with the market's rhythm!
And don't worry about the shape you choose; the scatter points will intelligently adapt and always follow the outer boundary of whatever beautiful form you've selected.
How to Use
Getting started with Spiralyst is simple:
Choose Your Canvas: Start by going into the settings and picking a `Shape` and `Palette` from the "Shape Selection & Palette" group that you find visually appealing. This is your canvas.
Tune Your Engine: Go to the "Market Pulse Engine" settings. Here, you can enable or disable the RSI and MACD scoring engines. Want to see the pulse based only on RSI? Just uncheck the MACD box. You can also fine-tune the parameters for each indicator to match your trading style.
Read the Vibe: Observe the scatter points. Are they mostly small asterisks or are they transforming into large, vibrant circles? Use this visual feedback as a high-level gauge of market momentum.
Check the Dashboard: For a precise breakdown, look at the "Market Pulse Analysis" table on the top-right. It gives you the exact values, scores, and total strength percentage.
Explore & Experiment: Play with the different shapes and color palettes! The core analysis remains the same, but the visual experience can be completely different.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
Spiralyst is designed to be highly customizable.
Shape Selection & Palette: This is your main control panel. Choose from over 25 unique shapes, select a color palette, and adjust the line extension style ( `extend` ) or horizontal position ( `offsetXInput` ).
scatterLabelsInput: This setting controls the total number of points (both asterisks and circles) that orbit the main shape. Think of it as adjusting the density or visual granularity of the market pulse feedback.
The Market Pulse engine will always calculate its strength as a percentage (e.g., 75%). This percentage is then applied to the `scatterLabelsInput` number you've set to determine how many points transform into large circles.
Example: If the Pulse Strength is 75% and you set this to `100` , approximately 75 points will become circles. If you increase it to `200` , approximately 150 points will transform.
A higher number provides a more detailed, high-resolution view of the market pulse, while a lower number offers a cleaner, more minimalist look. Feel free to adjust this to your personal visual preference; the underlying analytical percentage remains the same.
Market Pulse Engine:
`⚙️ RSI Settings` & `⚙️ MACD Settings`: Each indicator has its own group.
Enable Scoring: Use the checkbox at the top of each group to include or exclude that indicator from the Pulse Score calculation. If you only want to use RSI, simply uncheck "Enable MACD Scoring."
Parameters: All standard parameters (Length, Source, Fast/Slow/Signal) are fully adjustable.
Individual Shape Parameters (01-25): Each of the 25+ shapes has its own dedicated group of settings, allowing you to fine-tune every aspect of its geometry, from the number of petals on a flower to the windings of a knot. Feel free to experiment!
For Developers & Pine Script™ Enthusiasts
If you are a developer and wish to add more indicators (e.g., Stochastic, CCI, ADX), you can easily do so by following the modular structure of the code. You would primarily need to:
Add a new `PulseIndicator` object for your new indicator in the `f_getMarketPulse()` function.
Add the logic for its scoring inside the `calculateScore()` method.
The `calculateTotals()` method and the dashboard table are designed to be dynamic and will automatically adapt to include your new indicator!
One of the core design philosophies behind Spiralyst is modularity and scalability . The Market Pulse engine was intentionally built using User-Defined Types (UDTs) and an array-based structure so that adding new indicators is incredibly simple and doesn't require rewriting the main logic.
If you want to add a new indicator to the scoring engine—let's use the Stochastic Oscillator as a detailed example—you only need to modify three small sections of the code. The rest of the script, including the adaptive dashboard, will update automatically.
Here’s your step-by-step guide:
#### Step 1: Add the User Inputs
First, you need to give users control over your new indicator. Find the `USER INTERFACE: INPUTS` section and add a new group for the Stochastic settings, right after the MACD group.
Create a new group name: `string GRP_STOCH = "⚙️ Stochastic Settings"`
Add the inputs: Create a boolean to enable/disable it, and then add the necessary parameters (`%K`, `%D`, `Smooth`). Use the `active` parameter to link them to the enable/disable checkbox.
// Add this code block right after the GRP_MACD and MACD inputs
string GRP_STOCH = "⚙️ Stochastic Settings"
bool stochEnabledInput = input.bool(true, "Enable Stochastic Scoring", group = GRP_STOCH)
int stochKInput = input.int(14, "%K Length", minval=1, group = GRP_STOCH, active = stochEnabledInput)
int stochDInput = input.int(3, "%D Smoothing", minval=1, group = GRP_STOCH, active = stochEnabledInput)
int stochSmoothInput = input.int(3, "Smooth", minval=1, group = GRP_STOCH, active = stochEnabledInput)
#### Step 2: Integrate into the Pulse Engine (The "Factory")
Next, go to the `f_getMarketPulse()` function. This function acts as a "factory" that builds and configures the entire market pulse object. You need to teach it how to build your new Stochastic indicator.
Update the function signature: Add the new `stochEnabledInput` boolean as a parameter.
Calculate the indicator: Add the `ta.stoch()` calculation.
Create a `PulseIndicator` object: Create a new object for the Stochastic, populating it with its name, parameters, calculated value, and whether it's enabled.
Add it to the array: Simply add your new `stochPulse` object to the `array.from()` list.
Here is the complete, updated `f_getMarketPulse()` function :
// Factory function to create and calculate the entire MarketPulse object.
f_getMarketPulse(bool rsiEnabled, bool macdEnabled, bool stochEnabled) =>
// 1. Calculate indicator values
float rsiVal = ta.rsi(rsiSourceInput, rsiLengthInput)
= ta.macd(close, macdFastInput, macdSlowInput, macdSignalInput)
float stochVal = ta.sma(ta.stoch(close, high, low, stochKInput), stochDInput) // We'll use the main line for scoring
// 2. Create individual PulseIndicator objects
PulseIndicator rsiPulse = PulseIndicator.new("RSI", str.tostring(rsiLengthInput), rsiVal, na, 0, rsiEnabled)
PulseIndicator macdPulse = PulseIndicator.new("MACD", str.format("{0},{1},{2}", macdFastInput, macdSlowInput, macdSignalInput), macdVal, signalVal, 0, macdEnabled)
PulseIndicator stochPulse = PulseIndicator.new("Stoch", str.format("{0},{1},{2}", stochKInput, stochDInput, stochSmoothInput), stochVal, na, 0, stochEnabled)
// 3. Calculate score for each
rsiPulse.calculateScore()
macdPulse.calculateScore()
stochPulse.calculateScore()
// 4. Add the new indicator to the array
array indicatorArray = array.from(rsiPulse, macdPulse, stochPulse)
MarketPulse pulse = MarketPulse.new(indicatorArray, 0, 0.0)
// 5. Calculate final totals
pulse.calculateTotals()
pulse
// Finally, update the function call in the main orchestration section:
MarketPulse marketPulse = f_getMarketPulse(rsiEnabledInput, macdEnabledInput, stochEnabledInput)
#### Step 3: Define the Scoring Logic
Now, you need to define how the Stochastic contributes to the score. Go to the `calculateScore()` method and add a new case to the `switch` statement for your indicator.
Here's a sample scoring logic for the Stochastic, which gives a strong bullish score in oversold conditions and a strong bearish score in overbought conditions.
Here is the complete, updated `calculateScore()` method :
// Method to calculate the score for this specific indicator.
method calculateScore(PulseIndicator this) =>
if not this.isEnabled
this.score := 0
else
this.score := switch this.name
"RSI" => this.value > 65 ? 2 : this.value > 50 ? 1 : this.value < 35 ? -2 : this.value < 50 ? -1 : 0
"MACD" => this.value > this.signalValue and this.value > 0 ? 2 : this.value > this.signalValue ? 1 : this.value < this.signalValue and this.value < 0 ? -2 : this.value < this.signalValue ? -1 : 0
"Stoch" => this.value > 80 ? -2 : this.value > 50 ? 1 : this.value < 20 ? 2 : this.value < 50 ? -1 : 0
=> 0
this
#### That's It!
You're done. You do not need to modify the dashboard table or the total score calculation.
Because the `MarketPulse` object holds its indicators in an array , the rest of the script is designed to be adaptive:
The `calculateTotals()` method automatically loops through every indicator in the array to sum the scores and calculate the final percentage.
The dashboard code loops through the `enabledIndicators` array to draw the table. Since your new Stochastic indicator is now part of that array, it will appear automatically when enabled!

Remember, this is your playground! I'm genuinely excited to see the unique shapes you discover. If you create something you're proud of, feel free to share it in the comments below.
Happy analyzing, and may your charts be both insightful and beautiful! 💛

Previous Day OHLC Dashboard (Last N Days)Indicator: Previous Day OHLC Dashboard (Multi-Day)
This indicator displays a dashboard-style table on your chart that shows the Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC) of the previous trading days. It’s designed to help traders quickly reference key daily levels that often act as important support and resistance zones.
🔑 Features:
Dashboard Table: Shows OHLC data for the last N trading days (default = 3, up to 10).
Customizable Appearance:
Change the position of the dashboard (Top-Right, Top-Left, Bottom-Right, Bottom-Left).
Adjust text size (Tiny → Huge).
Customize colors for header, labels, and each OHLC column.
Yesterday’s OHLC Lines (optional): Plots horizontal lines on the chart for the previous day’s Open, High, Low, and Close.
Intraday & Multi-Timeframe Compatible: Works on all timeframes below Daily — values update automatically from the daily chart.
📊 Use Cases:
Quickly identify yesterday’s key levels for intraday trading.
Track how current price reacts to previous day’s support/resistance.
Keep a multi-day reference for trend bias and range context.
⚙️ How it Works:
The indicator pulls daily OHLC values using request.security() with lookahead_on to ensure prior day’s values are extended across the next session.
These values are displayed in a compact table for quick reference.
Optionally, the most recent daily levels (D-1) are plotted as chart lines.
✅ Perfect for day traders, scalpers, and swing traders who rely on yesterday’s price action to plan today’s trades.
Relative Strength Heat [InvestorUnknown]The Relative Strength Heat (RSH) indicator is a relative strength of an asset across multiple RSI periods through a dynamic heatmap and provides smoothed signals for overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator is highly customizable, allowing traders to adjust RSI periods, smoothing methods, and visual settings to suit their trading strategies.
The RSH indicator is particularly useful for identifying momentum shifts and potential reversal points by aggregating RSI data across a range of periods. It presents this data in a visually intuitive heatmap, with color-coded bands indicating overbought (red), oversold (green), or neutral (gray) conditions. Additionally, it includes signal lines for overbought and oversold indices, which can be smoothed using RAW, SMA, or EMA methods, and a table displaying the current index values.
Features
Dynamic RSI Periods: Calculates RSI across 31 periods, starting from a user-defined base period and incrementing by a specified step.
Heatmap Visualization: Displays RSI strength as a color-coded heatmap, with red for overbought, green for oversold, and gray for neutral zones.
Customizable Smoothing: Offers RAW, SMA, or EMA smoothing for overbought and oversold signals.
Signal Lines: Plots scaled overbought (purple) and oversold (yellow) signal lines with a midline for reference.
Information Table: Displays real-time overbought and oversold index values in a table at the top-right of the chart.
User-Friendly Inputs: Allows customization of RSI source, period ranges, smoothing length, and colors.
How It Works
The RSH indicator aggregates RSI calculations across 31 periods, starting from the user-defined Starting Period and incrementing by the Period Increment. For each period, it computes the RSI and determines whether the asset is overbought (RSI > threshold_ob) or oversold (RSI < threshold_os). These states are stored in arrays (ob_array for overbought, os_array for oversold) and used to generate the following outputs:
Heatmap: The indicator plots 31 horizontal bands, each representing an RSI period. The color of each band is determined by the f_col function:
Red if the RSI for that period is overbought (>threshold_ob).
Green if the RSI is oversold (
Strat Failed 2-Up/2-Down Scanner v2**Strat Failed 2-Up/2-Down Scanner**
The Strat Failed 2-Up/2-Down Scanner is designed for traders using The Strat methodology, developed by Rob Smith, to identify key reversal patterns in any market and timeframe. This indicator detects two specific candlestick patterns: Failed 2-Up (bearish) and Failed 2-Down (bullish), which signal potential reversals when a directional move fails to follow through.
**What It Does**
- **Failed 2-Up**: Identifies a bearish candle where the low and high are higher than the previous candle’s low and high, but the close is below the open, indicating a failed attempt to continue an uptrend. These are marked with a red candlestick, a red downward triangle above the bar, and a table entry.
- **Failed 2-Down**: Identifies a bullish candle where the high and low are lower than the previous candle’s high and low, but the close is above the open, signaling a failed downtrend. These are marked with a green candlestick, a green upward triangle below the bar, and a table entry.
- A table in the top-right corner displays the signal type ("Failed 2-Up" or "Failed 2-Down") and the ticker symbol for quick reference.
- Alerts are provided for both patterns, making the indicator compatible with TradingView’s screener for automated scanning.
**How It Works**
The indicator analyzes each candlestick’s high, low, and close relative to the previous candle:
- Failed 2-Up: `low > low `, `high > high `, `close < open`.
- Failed 2-Down: `high < high `, `low < low `, `close > open`.
When these conditions are met, the indicator applies visual markers (colored bars and triangles) and updates the signal table. Alert conditions trigger notifications for integration with TradingView’s alert system.
**How to Use**
1. Apply the indicator to any chart (stocks, forex, crypto, etc.) on any timeframe (e.g., 1-minute, hourly, daily).
2. Monitor the chart for red (Failed 2-Up) or green (Failed 2-Down) candlesticks with corresponding triangles.
3. Check the top-right table for the latest signal and ticker.
4. Set alerts by selecting “Failed 2-Up Detected” or “Failed 2-Down Detected” in TradingView’s alert menu to receive notifications (e.g., via email or app).
5. Use the signals to identify potential reversal setups in conjunction with other Strat-based analysis, such as swing levels or time-based strategies.
**Originality**
Unlike other Strat indicators that may focus on swing levels or complex candlestick combinations, this scanner specifically targets Failed 2-Up and Failed 2-Down patterns with clear, minimalist visualizations (bars, triangles, table) and robust alert functionality. Its simplicity makes it accessible for both novice and experienced traders using The Strat methodology.
**Ideal For**
Day traders, swing traders, and scalpers looking to capitalize on reversal signals in trending or ranging markets. The indicator is versatile for any asset class and timeframe, enhancing trade decision-making with The Strat’s pattern-based approach.
Smart Money Trades Pro [BOSWaves]Smart Money Trades Pro – Advanced Market Structure & Liquidity Visualizer
Overview
Smart Money Trades Pro is a comprehensive trading tool designed for traders seeking an in-depth understanding of market structure, liquidity dynamics, and institutional flow. The indicator systematically identifies key market turning points, including break of structure (BOS) and change of character (CHoCH) events, and overlays these with adaptive visualizations to highlight high-probability trade setups. By integrating ATR-based risk zones, progressive take-profit levels, and real-time trade analytics, Smart Money Trades Pro transforms complex price action into an interpretable framework suitable for multiple trading styles, including scalping, intraday, and swing trading.
Unlike traditional static indicators, Smart Money Trades Pro adapts continuously to market conditions. It evaluates swing highs and lows over a configurable lookback period, then determines structural breaks using customizable confirmation methods (candle body or wick). The resulting signals are augmented with dynamic entry, stop-loss, and target levels, allowing traders to analyze potential trade opportunities with both precision and context. The indicator’s design ensures that each visual element—trend-colored candles, signal markers, and risk/reward boxes—reflects real-time market conditions, offering an actionable interpretation of institutional activity.
How It Works
The indicator’s foundation is built upon market structure analysis. By calculating pivot highs and lows over a specified period, Smart Money Trades Pro identifies potential points of liquidity accumulation and exhaustion. When price breaks a pivot high or low, the indicator evaluates whether this constitutes a BOS or a CHoCH, signaling trend continuation or reversal. These events are marked on the chart with distinct visual cues, allowing traders to quickly discern shifts in market sentiment without manually analyzing historical price action.
Once a structural break is confirmed, the indicator automatically determines entry levels, stop-loss placements, and progressive take-profit zones (TP1, TP2, TP3). These calculations are based on ATR-derived volatility, ensuring that targets scale with current market conditions. Risk and reward zones are plotted as shaded boxes, providing a clear visual representation of potential profit relative to risk for each trade setup. This system allows traders to maintain discipline and consistency, with dynamic trade management baked directly into the visualization.
Trend direction is further reinforced by color-coded candles, which reflect the prevailing market bias. Bullish trends are represented by one color, bearish trends by another, and neutral conditions are displayed in muted tones. This continuous visual feedback simplifies the process of trend assessment and helps confirm the validity of trade setups alongside BOS and CHoCH markers.
Signals and Breakouts
Smart Money Trades Pro includes structured visual signals to indicate actionable price movements:
Bullish Break Signals – Triangular markers below the candle appear when a swing high is broken, suggesting potential long opportunities.
Bearish Break Signals – Triangular markers above the candle appear when a swing low is broken, indicating potential short setups.
Change of Character (CHoCH) – Special markers highlight trend reversals, showing where momentum shifts from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
These markers are strategically spaced to prevent overlap and remain clear during high-volatility periods. Traders can use them in combination with trend-colored candles, risk/reward zones, and ATR-based targets to assess the strength and reliability of each setup. The integrated table provides live trade information, including entry price, stop-loss level, take-profit levels, risk/reward ratio, and trade direction, ensuring that trade decisions are informed and data-driven.
Interpretation
Trend Analysis : The indicator’s trend coloring, combined with BOS and CHoCH detection, provides an immediate view of market direction. Rising structures indicate bullish momentum, while falling structures signal bearish momentum. CHoCH markers highlight potential trend reversals or significant liquidity sweeps.
Volatility and Risk Assessment : ATR-based calculations determine stop-loss distances and target levels, giving a quantitative measure of risk relative to market volatility. Wide ATR readings indicate periods of high price fluctuation, whereas narrow readings suggest consolidation and reduced risk exposure.
Market Structure Insights : By monitoring swing highs and lows alongside break confirmations, traders can identify where institutional players are likely active. Areas with multiple structural breaks or overlapping targets can indicate liquidity hotspots, potential reversal zones, or areas of market congestion.
Trade Management : The built-in trade zones allow traders to visualize entry, risk, and reward simultaneously. Progressive targets (TP1, TP2, TP3) reflect incremental profit-taking strategies, while dynamic stop-loss levels help preserve capital during adverse moves.
Strategy Integration
Smart Money Trades Pro supports a range of trading approaches:
Trend Following : Enter trades in the direction of confirmed BOS while using CHoCH markers and trend-colored candles to validate momentum.
Pullback Entries : Use failed breakout retests or minor reversals toward broken structure levels for lower-risk entries.
Mean Reversion : In consolidated zones with narrow ATR and repeated BOS/CHoCH activity, anticipate reversals or short-term corrective moves.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : Overlay signals on higher or lower timeframes to filter noise and improve trade accuracy.
Stop-loss levels should be placed just beyond the opposing structural point, while take-profit targets can be scaled using the ATR-based zones. Progressive targets allow for partial exits or scaling out of trades while maintaining exposure to larger moves.
Advanced Techniques
Traders seeking greater precision can combine Smart Money Trades Pro with volume, momentum, or volatility indicators to validate signals. Observing sequences of BOS and CHoCH markers across multiple timeframes provides insight into liquidity accumulation and depletion trends. Tracking the expansion or contraction of ATR-based zones helps anticipate shifts in volatility, enabling better timing for entries and exits.
Customizing the structure period and confirmation type allows the indicator to adapt to different asset classes and timeframes. Shorter periods increase sensitivity to smaller swings, while longer periods filter noise and emphasize higher-probability structural breaks. By integrating these features, the indicator offers a robust statistical framework for disciplined, data-driven trading decisions.

Market Imbalance Tracker (Inefficient Candle + FVG)# 📊 Overview
This indicator combines two imbalance concepts:
• **Squared Up Points (SUP)** – midpoints of large, "inefficient" candles that often attract price back.
• **Fair Value Gaps (FVG)** – 3-candle gaps created by strong impulse moves that often get "filled."
Use them separately or together. Confluence between a SUP line and an FVG boundary/midpoint is high-value.
---
# ⚡ Quick Start (2 minutes)
1. **Add to chart** → keep defaults (Percentile method, 80th percentile, 100-bar lookback).
2. **Watch** for dashed SUP lines to print after large candles.
3. **Toggle Show FVG** → see green/red boxes where gaps exist.
4. **Turn on alerts** → New SUP created, SUP touched, New FVG.
5. **Trade the reaction** → look for confluence (SUP + FVG + S/R), then manage risk.
---
# 🛠 Features
## 🔹 Squared Up Points (SUP)
• **Purpose:** Midpoint of a large candle → potential support/resistance magnet.
• **Detection:** Choose *Percentile* (adaptive) or *ATR Multiple* (absolute).
• **Validation:** Only plots if the preceding candle does not touch the midpoint (with tolerance).
• **Lifecycle:** Line auto-extends into the future; it's removed when touched or aged out.
• **Visual:** Horizontal dashed line (color/width configurable; style fixed to dashed if not exposed).
## 🔹 Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
• **Purpose:** 3-candle gaps from an impulse; price often revisits to "fill."
• **Detection:** Requires a strong directional candle (Marubozu threshold) creating a gap.
• **Types:**
- **Bullish FVG (Green):** Gap below; expectation is downward fill.
- **Bearish FVG (Red):** Gap above; expectation is upward fill.
• **Close Rules (if implemented):**
- *Full Fill:* Gap closes when the opposite boundary is tagged.
- *Midpoint Fill:* Gap closes when its midpoint is tagged.
• **Visual:** Colored boxes; optional split-coloring to emphasize the midpoint.
> **Note:** If a listed FVG option isn't visible in Inputs, you're on a lighter build; use the available switches.
---
# ⚙️ Settings
## SUP Settings
• **Candle Size Method:** Percentile (top X% of recent ranges) or ATR Multiple.
• **Candle Size Percentile:** e.g., 80 → top 20% largest candles.
• **ATR Multiple & Period:** e.g., 1.5 × ATR(14).
• **Percentile Lookback:** Bars used to compute percentile.
• **Lookback Period:** How long SUP lines remain eligible before auto-cleanup.
• **Touch Tolerance (%):** Buffer based on the inefficient candle's range (0% = exact touch).
## Line Appearance
• **Line Color / Width:** Customizable.
• **Style:** Dashed (fixed unless you expose a style input).
## FVG Settings (if present in your build)
• **Show FVG:** On/Off.
• **Close Method:** Full Fill or Midpoint.
• **Marubozu Wick Tolerance:** Max wick % of the impulse bar.
• **Use Split Coloring:** Two-tone box halves around midpoint.
• **Colors:** Bullish/Bearish, and upper/lower halves (if split).
• **Max FVG Age:** Auto-remove older gaps.
---
# 📈 How to Use
## Trading Applications
• **SUP Lines:** Expect reaction on first touch; use as S/R or profit-taking magnets.
• **FVG Fills:** Price frequently tags the midpoint/boundary before continuing.
• **Confluence:** SUP at an FVG midpoint/boundary + higher-timeframe S/R = higher quality.
• **Bias:** Clusters of unfilled FVGs can hint at path of least resistance.
## Best Practices
• **Timeframe:** HTFs for swing levels, LTFs for execution.
• **Volume:** High volume at level = stronger signal.
• **Context:** Trade with broader trend or at least avoid counter-trend without confirmation.
• **Risk:** Always pre-define invalidation; structures fail in chop.
---
# 🔔 Alerts
• **New SUP Created** – When a qualifying inefficient candle prints a SUP midpoint.
• **SUP Touched/Invalidated** – When price touches within tolerance.
• **New FVG Detected** – When a valid gap forms per your rules.
> **Tip:** Set alerts *Once Per Bar Close* on HTFs; *Once* on LTFs to avoid noise.
---
# 🧑💻 Technical Notes
• **Percentile vs ATR:** Percentile adapts to volatility; ATR gives consistency for backtesting.
• **FVG Direction Logic:** Gap above price = bearish (expect up-fill); below = bullish (expect down-fill).
• **Performance:** Limits on lines/boxes and auto-aging keep things snappy.
---
# ⚠️ Limitations
• Imbalances are **context tools**, not signals by themselves.
• Works best with trend or clear impulses; expect noise in narrow ranges.
• Lower-timeframe gaps can be plentiful and lower quality.
---
# 📌 Version & Requirements
• **Pine Script v6**
• Heavy drawings may require **TradingView Pro** or higher (object limits).

I am publishing this open-source in accordance with TradingView’s Open-source reuse rules.
What’s new:
- Fixes & stability (addresses “historical offset beyond buffer” errors)
- Capped and validated all historical indexing with guarded lookbacks (e.g., min(…, 200) style limits) to prevent referencing data beyond the buffer on shorter histories/thin symbols.
- Refactored highest/lowest bars scans to obey the cap and avoid cumulative overflows on long sessions.
- Added per-bar counters with safety clamps to ensure it never exceeds available history.
- Ensured HTF switching doesn’t create invalid offsets when the higher timeframe compresses history.
Modernization & user control:
- Pine v6 upgrade and re-organization of logic for clarity/performance.
- More predictable tops/bottoms detection.
What it does:
- Detects regular (trend-reversal) and optional hidden (trend-continuation) divergences between price swing tops/bottoms and the selected oscillator(s).
- Computes candidate pivots with a light HTF alignment to reduce micro-noise; validates divergence when oscillator and price move in opposite directions across those pivots.
- Plots colored lines/labels on price to highlight bearish (regular & hidden) and bullish (regular & hidden) patterns.
How to use:
- Choose the oscillator set you trust (start with RSI + MACD).
- Consider confluence (S/R, volume, trend filters). This tool only identifies conditions
Economic Profit (Fixed & Labeled) — Rated + PeersFRAC (Fundamental-Rated-Asset-Calculate)
FRAC is a fundamentals-driven tool designed to measure whether a company is creating or destroying shareholder value. Unlike surface ratios, FRAC uses Economic Profit (ROIC – WACC) as its engine, showing whether a business truly outperforms its cost of capital.
🔹 What FRAC Does
Calculates ROIC (Return on Invested Capital) vs. WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital).
Shows whether a company is creating or destroying shareholder value.
Uses tiered color coding for clarity:
🔵 Superior (Aqua Blue) → Top tier; best of the best.
🟣 Elite (Purple) → Strong value creation.
🟢 Positive (Green) → Solid, creating shareholder value.
🟡 Marginal (Yellow) → Barely covering cost of capital.
🔴 Negative (Red) → Value destruction.
🔹 Composite Ranking System (1–4)
FRAC also assigns each company a Composite Rank so you can compare multiple names side by side. The rank works like this:
Rank 1 → Superior (🔵 Aqua Blue)
Best possible rating; wide gap between ROIC and WACC.
Rank 2 → Elite (🟣 Purple)
Strongly positive; above-average capital efficiency.
Rank 3 → Positive (🟢 Green)
Creating value but only moderately; not a top compounder.
Rank 4 → Marginal/Negative (🟡/🔴)
Weak or destructive; either barely covering WACC or losing money on capital.
✅ How to Use the Ranks
When comparing a set of peers (e.g., NVDA, AMD, INTC):
FRAC will display each company’s color rating + composite rank (1–4).
You can instantly see who is strongest vs. weakest in the group.
Best decisions = overweight Rank 1 & 2 companies, avoid Rank 4 names.
🔹 Key Inputs Explained
Risk-Free Asset → Typically the 10-Year US Treasury yield (US10Y).
Corporate Tax Rate → Effective tax rate for the company’s country (e.g., USCTR).
Expected Market Return → Historical average ~8–10%, adjustable.
Beta Lookback Period → Controls how far back Beta is calculated (longer = more stable, shorter = more reactive).
👉 These must be set correctly for FRAC to calculate WACC accurately.
🔹 Example Comparison
NVDA: ROIC 25% – WACC 7% = +18% → 🔵 Superior → Rank 1
AMD: ROIC 17% – WACC 8% = +9% → 🟣 Elite → Rank 2
INTC: ROIC 11% – WACC 9% = +2% → 🟢 Positive → Rank 3
FSLY: ROIC 5% – WACC 10% = –5% → 🔴 Negative → Rank 4
🔹 Why It Matters
Buffett said: “The best businesses are those that can consistently generate returns on capital above their cost of capital.”
FRAC turns that into a visual + numeric rating system (1–4), making comparisons across peers simple and actionable.
🔹 Credit
FRAC was created by Hunter Hammond (Elite x FineFir), inspired by corporate finance models of Economic Profit and Economic Value Added (EVA).
⚠️ Disclaimer: FRAC is a research framework, not financial advice. Always pair with full due diligence.
Buy/Sell Volume BalanceDESCRIPTION
Buy/Sell Volume Balance is a simple yet powerful indicator designed to measure and visualize the balance between buying and selling volume over a customizable number of recent candles. It helps traders quickly assess market pressure during consolidation phases or ranges, in order to anticipate the most likely breakout direction.
How it works
The indicator analyzes the last N candles (default = 100, user-editable).
Each candle’s total volume is classified as:
Bullish volume (Buy volume): if the candle closes above or equal to its open.
Bearish volume (Sell volume): if the candle closes below its open.
The volumes are summed separately to calculate:
Total Buy Volume
Total Sell Volume
The percentage of each side relative to the total is also displayed.
All results are shown in a fixed table at the top of the chart for quick interpretation.
Purpose
This tool is specifically designed to help traders evaluate the internal battle between buyers and sellers during a range or sideways market. By understanding which side is accumulating more volume within the range, traders can anticipate which direction is more likely when the price breaks out.
If Buy volume dominates → potential bullish breakout.
If Sell volume dominates → potential bearish breakout.
If both sides are nearly balanced, it signals indecision and a higher chance of false breakouts.
Imbalance Threshold
In practice, traders often consider a clear imbalance when one side reaches at least 55–60% of the total volume.
Above this threshold, the dominant side is more likely to dictate the breakout direction.
Below this threshold, the market is usually in indecision and further confirmation is needed before acting.
How to use it
Add the indicator to your chart and choose the lookback period (number of candles).
Focus on ranges or consolidation zones where price is moving sideways.
Observe the balance of Buy vs Sell volume in the top-right box:
A clear imbalance (>55–60%) suggests the stronger side is more likely to push the breakout.
A balanced ratio (<55–60%) indicates indecision and possible false breakouts.
Use it in combination with support/resistance zones, breakout patterns, or volume spikes for best results.
✅ In summary: This indicator does not give direct buy/sell signals, but it provides valuable context about market pressure, helping you to align your trades with the most probable breakout direction.
