Choppy Market EMA IdentificationThis indicator could be used to identify choppy Market Conditions based on the EMA.
It is an EMA that could be configured to only show up, if the last 1..n candles are NOT crossing the EMA in any direction.
I figured out that lower timeframes ( < 30 min) often the price bounces around the 200 EMA and gives lot of false signals using different strategies.
So i decided to write a small indicator to avoid taking trades in those market conditions.
The Indicator could be configured for the length of the EMA and how many crosses must be happened in the defined numbers of candles.

3 Line Strike [TTF]This indicator is a spin-off of the popular TMA Overlay indicator made by request of the original author that narrows down the scope to simply identifying a couple of key candlestick patterns - Engulfing candles and 3 Line Strikes.
In addition to being a far more tailored and purpose-specific indicator, we have also update the indicator code to the latest version of Pinescript and added some enhanced alerts.
Candlestick Channels [LuxAlgo]Candlestick Channels return channels whose extremities converge towards the price when a corresponding candlestick pattern is detected. This allows for us to obtain more reactive extremities in the presence of a cluster of candlestick patterns.
The detected candlestick patterns are also highlighted with labels on your chart automatically.
Settings
Trend Length: Period of the stochastic oscillator used to determine trend sentiment; this sentiment is used to detect certain candlestick patterns.
Convergence: Convergence percentage of the channel extremities used during the occurrence of a candlestick pattern. A lower value will return extremities converging more slowly toward the price.
Smooth: Determines the degree of smoothness of the channel extremities.
Patterns
This category determines which patterns are detected by the indicator. Patterns toggled off will not be detected and won't affect the channels.
Usage
Candlesticks patterns are commonly used by traders to detect potential reversals or continuation periods in the price. It can be of interest to use them as core elements in the calculation of more classical indicators, this can allow us to filter out potential false signals returned by candlestick patterns by shifting the source of interpretation towards the channel extremities instead.
In this indicator extremities converge towards the price when a corresponding pattern is detected. As such bullish patterns will make the upper extremity converge towards the price, facilitating a cross with price. Using a lower convergence percentage will require a greater number of patterns to make the extremity converge closer towards the price.
Users can use the channel like most indicators returning extremities, with an uptrend being detected when price cross over the upper extremity and a downtrend being detected when price cross under the lower extremity.
An approach solely making use of crosses between the price and the average line can be used but the user should expect further whipsaws signals.
Users can eventually use the candlestick patterns as entries and use the extremities for confirmation. For example, users can follow a candlestick pattern return an indication in accordance with the detected trend by the channels.
This approach would lead to the following of bullish patterns when they occur in an uptrend, that is when the price is above the average line (in orange). The same logic applies to bearish patterns.
The chart above highlights the candlesticks patterns in accordance with a detected trend.
Notes
- Bullish/Bearish engulfing patterns are turned off by default due their more frequent appearance.
- Candlestick patterns relying on gaps were not included, since they would be more uncommon in cryptocurrencies, thus leading to a disparity between the indicator performance on the cryptocurrency and stock market.
Sneaky VolumeSneaky Volume
An experimental script that marks the highest and lowest candle of the day with above average volume.
New candles that meet the criteria will repaint until daily close
How to use
They can be interpreted in a number of ways. Potential sign of consolidation, reversal, continuation or retest zones. Use on own discretion.
In action
Price Action CandlesThis simple script provides a visual aid for price action traders by coloring outside & inside candles, which in effect leaves the trader with 6 possible candle colors:
-Regular bullish candle
-Outside bullish candle
-Inside bullish candle
-Regular bearish candle
-Outside bearish candle
-Inside bearish candle
These candlesticks may provide powerful signals when used in conjunction with key levels, market structure and chart patterns.
Make sure to disable the regular candlesticks (body, borders and wicks) in the symbol tab inside the configuration menu!
Hope it can help someone!
Constantly Applied Pressure Index (CAP index)BINANCE:ETHUSDT
The CAP index is my own homebrew trend indicator made to help traders see the slightly bigger picture, because we all know that as traders we can tend to hyper-focus in on a few candles and end up making a stupid trade because of it, or is it just me ? On a more serious note this indicator helps you find the short term trend by looking at bullish and bearish candles comparing their sizes, volumes and predominance.
The indicator has many technical settings for you to play around with but on the defaults it will render in a few colors which I will explain. Gray means no trend or that the current trend has died, bright green or red mean that a trend has formed, is playing out or that there is a good change a strong trend is about to form. Obviously green means bullish and red means bearish. Finally darker green and red mean a weak or weakening trend, this serves as a warning if you are about to take a trade in the trend direction.
The way I recommend using the indicator is the same way many trend indicators are used, as a filter to either a different indicator creating trading signals or to your own strategy's signals. I would add an illustration here that I prepared but I cannot because of tradingview's reputation rules
Mark StructureMark Structure is building the market swing structure, minor and sub structure and marks all possible insignificant pivots
Building such structure is really complex task to do, that has a lot of obstacles and challenges. I'm doing my best to develop this indicator behaving in absolutely expectable and right way. Fill free to leave any comments or bug reports.
it supports:
- Marking all pivots with labels or join them continuously with trend lines.
- Marking minor and sub structured swings with labels or join them continuously with trend lines. Marking BOS or SMS BOS, which are mbos. Minor and substructure are structures inside swing structure and it can differ from the structure of lower timeframe
- Marking swings of swing structure with labels or join them continuously with trend lines. Marking BOS or SMS BOS of swing structure
- Changing bullish and bearish colors of each kind of structures
- Changing pivot labelings
- Changing colors of BOSs
Remarks:
- As I told you guys before, it has a lot of challenging cases. eg we have swing low and high on the same candle and in order to decide which pivot goes first I take lower time frame data to figure out what pivot is the first, but it happens that on lower time frame the same issue takes place, due to limitation of TradingView I can't go infinitely to lower timeframes to solve this issue, so I mark those cases with labels
- Another issue is very beginning of the trend its hard to detect swing structure there due to missing historical data. so skip a few waves in the very beginning
- Don't expect to have minor and sub structure in each swing waves, its totally fine when you don't have them at all
- Swing structure is the most significant structure and shows real price direction. Trend change is confirmed when for bull->bear the last HLbull LH>HH and HH-HL-HH are confirmed. You can change labelling for unconfirmed swing trend in the settings. By default its already done
Mark FVGsMark FVGs is marking FVG (stands for Fair Value Gap, other name is Imbalance or IMB) on your chart so that you can instantly detect them
It supports:
- marking bullish and bearish partly filled or unfilled FVGs of the current timeframe
- marking bullish and bearish already filled FVGs of the current timeframe
- marking bullish and bearish FVGs of the any 4 timeframes on your current timeframe
technically it re-builds them on the last bar or as soon as new realtime bar is updated. it looks with 1k bars back to find the nearest specific number of FGVs
Adjustments:
- changing the maximum number of FVGs to display.
- changing the color of FVG area
- displaying already filled FVG of the current time frame
- changing the mode of displaying area it can either extended or fixed width
- displaying labels of other time frame FVGs
Inside Bar HighlightInside Bar have at least 2 candles.
They include one mother candle and multiple child candles. Mother candle will cover whole child candles ( child candles have high and low within mother candle)
This script will highlight Inside Bars
How to use :
When we analyze market structure, we can combine mother candle and children candles and see them as a candle.
This script will help us do this easily.
Engulfing Candles AlertThis is a Engulfing Candle Indicator with Alerts.
This is not like any other Engulfing candle indicator present on TV. There are some special rules that are being used to identify specific engulfing candles.
Also, the user can choose if they like nice body engulfing or they want to ignore them.
The indicator have the following highlights:
1) Ability to choose the color of the engulfing candle body.
2) Ability to choose a different color for the Liq (liquidity) swap engulfing candle body.
Bullish Engulfing after Liq Swap
Bearish Engulfing after Liq Swap
3) With above 2 options, you can get the desired information without plotting any extra information on the chart.
4) You can put the alerts for getting notified when these patterns forms on the chart.
5) Ability to choose between getting notified or not on the chart if the engulfing candle body is less than 40% of the whole candle size. This is useful in order to identify if the engulfing is really powerful or not.
After selecting the option to ignore such engulfing
6) Ability to choose between getting notified or not on the chart if the engulfed candle body is really small. This is in particular useful for avoiding the engulfing of Doji which in turn might not be that powerful.
After selecting the option to ignore such engulfing
We will keep on making the improvements/Enhancements over the time (Check the changelog for such features)
NOTE: The indicator is of best use if you have a defined & back tested strategy which relies on this type of candlestick pattern.

Sonarlab - MTF Imbalance/ FVGAn imbalance is created when the order block creates such impulsive volume in the market that it throws off the equilibrium between buyers and sellers, forming a gap. This is referred to as imbalance or FVG. These gaps act as a magnet for price to retrace to, in order to correct the disturbance in market equilibrium.
Imbalances = FVG
This image above shows you how an imbalance is created in the market using 3 candles. As we all know, candle sticks represent a specific time-range - for example: 1H. This means that inside 1 candle stick, there are 60 1 minute candle sticks resting. What I'm trying to say with this is that you get a totally different picture when you are on the lower timeframes. An imbalance can be overlooked, so it can be very helpful to have the multiple timeframe Imbalances on your screen, so you understand what is actually going on in the bigger picture.
Usage
Focused on combining with SMC:
When trading SMC, Imbalances can be great for POI's (point of interests) or using as targets in the market. Imbalances work like magnets in the market. When the market is imbalanced, it mostly wants to balance those gaps and can sometimes react perfectly from the area's. Besides that, it can really give you an idea who is in control at that moment.
Here you can see an example of an Imbalance when on the 1H timeframe - in the next picture below you can see the exact same imbalance, but then on the 3M. Now you understand why it can be overlooked?
So, imbalances/ FVG's:
- Increase probability of certain Point of Interests
- Can be a sign of strong interest in price areas
- Can be used as targets
- Can be used as POI's
What makes this Imbalance indicator different?
The Sonarlab MTF Imbalance indicator makes it possible to show up to 3 higher timeframes, which makes it easier to do your analysis and spot these areas when trading.
SubCandleI created this script as POC to handle specific cases where not having tick data on historical bars create repainting. Happy to share if this serves purpose for other coders.
What is the function of this script?
Script plots a sub-candle which is remainder of candle after forming the latest peak.
Higher body of Sub-candle refers to strong retracement of price from its latest peak. Color of the sub-candle defines the direction of retracement.
Higher wick of Sub-candle refers to higher push in the direction of original candle. Meaning, after price reaching its peak, price retraced but could not hold.
Here is a screenshot with explanation to visualise the concept:
Settings
There is only one setting which is number of backtest bars. Lower timeframe resolution which is used for calculating the Sub-candle uses this number to automatically calculate maximum possible lower timeframe so that all the required backtest windows are covered without having any issue.
We need to keep in mind that max available lower timeframe bars is 100,000. Hence, with 5000 backtest bars, lower timeframe resolution can be about 20 (100000/5000) times lesser than that of regular chart timeframe. We need to also keep in mind that minimum resolution available as part of security_lower_tf is 1 minute. Hence, it is not advisable to use this script for chart timeframes less than 15 mins.
Application
I have been facing this issue in pattern recognition scripts where patterns are formed using high/low prices but entry and targets are calculated based on the opposite side (low/high). It becomes tricky during extreme bars to identify entry conditions based on just the opposite peak because, the candle might have originated from it before identifying the pattern and might have never reached same peak after forming the pattern. Due to lack of tick data on historical bars, we cannot use close price to measure such conditions. This leads to repaint and few unexpected results. I am intending to use this method to overcome the issue up-to some extent.
Inside Bar SetupScript Details
- This script plots Inside Bar for given day in selected time-frame (applicable only for Timeframes < Day)
- Basis plotted inside bar, relevant targets are marked on the chart
- Targets can be customised from script settings. Example, if range of mother candle is 10 points, then T1 is 10 * x above/below mother candle and T2 is 10 * y above/below mother candle. This x & y are configured via script settings
How to use this script ?
- This script works well on 10-15 mins timeframe for stocks, 15/30 mins timeframe for nifty index and 30/60 mins time frame for bank nifty index
- If mother candle high is broken, take long trade with SL of mother candle low and if low is broken, take short trade with SL of mother candle high
Remember:
1. Above logic is to be combined with support/resistances i.e. price action. This script is an add-on to price action analysis giving you more conviction.
2. If range of mother candle is very high, it is recommended to avoid the trade.
3. Basis inside bar formed on higher time frame, take trade on basis of lower time frame i.e if inside bar is formed on 60 mins, take trade on the basis of 10-15 mins time frame
Example:
1. As seen in the chart, Nifty is near it's resistance and we are seeing Inside Bar being formed, In such scenario, even if High of Mother Candle is broken, we should be more interested to short as we are near resistance and probability of getting our targets in long side is less.
2. So, if I see breakdown of mother candle i.e. price going below low of mother candle, we will short with SL of high of mother candle.
3. As seen in the chart, both the targets are achieved.
Additional Info:
1. Targets on Long/Short Side can be configured via settings. For indices 1 times/1.5 times the range works well.
2. This script plots targets basis the first inside bar formed in the day for selected time frame.
3. Inside bars formed through out the day are coloured separately but lines are plotted only on the basis of 1st formed inside bar as this strategy works well for the first formed inside bar)
4. Don't forget to check volume in case of breakout/breakdown.
Note:
1. Mother Candle - First Candle of Inside Bar
2. Child Candle - Candle formed inside Mother Candle (Second Candle of Inside Bar)
Happy Trading :)
Heinkin-Ashi Shadow Candles// Public Domain

// Enjoy the visual cues of HA candles, without giving up price action awareness.
// Good for learning and comparison.
MTF Heikinashi BarOVERVIEW
This indicator shows whether Heikin Ashi is up or down, represented by a bar. This indicator is compatible with MTF.
CONCEPTS
What do you want to know about market analysis?
Do you want a hard analysis? You can look for it.
All I want to know is whether the commonly known technical analysis is 'UP' or 'DOWN'.
All I want to know is whether the current market price is going up or down. Not only for the current, but also for the monthly, weekly, and daily status.
I want to make a decision in a moment. Without even thinking about it.
That is why I created a color-coded bar indicator to show the status.
No need to frown anymore.
DETAILS
Heikin means average. Ashi means legs. In this case, it means a candle.
Close = (Close + Open + High + Low) / 4

Heikin Ashi Up ⇒ green
Heikin Ashi Down ⇒ red
50% Strat RetracementThe purpose of this script is to show/alert you when there is a 50% Strat Reversal. It works very well to find possible 3 candles.
The arrows, and line can be turned on and off.
You can change the 50% to say 45% so that you will be alerted before it actually hits the 50% retracement.
The script will only alert if the reversal is a 2up red candle, a 2up green candle which will hopefully turn into a 3 candle.
Bullish & Bearish EngulfingA simple script to filter out bullish and bearish engulfing candles. Size of candles can be filtered.
Engulfing Candle Marker (Full Candle)A simple indicator that marks FULL CANDLE engulfing candles...
current high > previous high
current low < previous low
bullish: close > open (triangle below)
bearish: close < open (triangle above)
A lot of the engulfing indicators available are body only. I created a FULL CANDLE indicator because that's what I prefer using.
Can be useful for spotting both reversal and continuation price action. Always have a complete trading plan and backtest it for yourself, engulfing candles in themselves to not guarantee a profit.
You are more powerful than you know...keep expanding!
Flag DetectorThis script attempts to find consolidations or retracements within the context of a previous uptrend - basically looking for flag type patterns. It first measures an initial move (referred to as the flag pole in this script) and then looks for consolidation after that move within a certain range. If the consolidation is within the rage, it plots a dot under the candle to show you the consolidation areas. It's not fool proof, but seems to do a decent job of identifying pullbacks and sideways consolidations reasonably well.
Watchlist Screening Hammer & Engulfing Strategies [By MUQWISHI]A trading strategy screener is an idea of a visual alert for those who're trading particular strategies and facing a lack of capability of monitoring many symbols simultaneously, so this kind of tool could be more efficient to keep managing trading plans smoothly and quickly. I developed this screener as an idea more than providing legend strategies.
This screener indicator performs scanning 4 different strategies with customizable 10 symbols inputs, and 5 min is the preferable timeframe.
Strategies
1. Hammer at Low of the day.
2. Shooting Star at High of the day.
3. Bull Engulfing at Low of the day.
4. Bear Engulfing at High of the day.
