SuperTrend Optimizer Remastered[CHE] SuperTrend Optimizer Remastered — Grid-ranked SuperTrend with additive or multiplicative scoring
Summary
This indicator evaluates a fixed grid of one hundred and two SuperTrend parameter pairs and ranks them by a simple flip-to-flip return model. It auto-selects the currently best-scoring combination and renders its SuperTrend in real time, with optional gradient coloring for faster visual parsing. The original concept is by KioseffTrading Thanks a lot for it.
For years I wanted to shorten the roughly two thousand three hundred seventy-one lines; I have now reduced the core to about three hundred eighty lines without triggering script errors. The simplification is generalizable to other indicators. A multiplicative return mode was added alongside the existing additive aggregation, enabling different rankings and often more realistic compounding behavior.
Motivation: Why this design?
SuperTrend is sensitive to its factor and period. Picking a single pair statically can underperform across regimes. This design sweeps a compact parameter grid around user-defined lower bounds, measures flip-to-flip outcomes, and promotes the combination with the strongest cumulative return. The approach keeps the visual footprint familiar while removing manual trial-and-error. The multiplicative mode captures compounding effects; the additive mode remains available for linear aggregation.
Originally (by KioseffTrading)
Very long script (~2,371 lines), monolithic structure.
SuperTrend optimization with additive (cumulative percentage-sum) scoring only.
Heavier use of repetitive code; limited modularity and fewer UI conveniences.
No explicit multiplicative compounding option; rankings did not reflect sequence-sensitive equity growth.
Now (remastered by CHE)
Compact core (~380 lines) with the same functional intent, no compile errors.
Adds multiplicative (compounding) scoring alongside additive, changing rankings to reflect real equity paths and penalize drawdown sequences.
Fixed 34×3 grid sweep, live ranking, gradient-based bar/wick/line visuals, top-table display, and an optional override plot.
Cleaner arrays/state handling, last-bar table updates, and reusable simplification pattern that can be applied to other indicators.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Baseline: A single SuperTrend with hand-picked inputs.
Architecture differences:
Fixed grid of thirty-four factor offsets across three ATR offsets.
Per-combination flip-to-flip backtest with additive or multiplicative aggregation.
Live ranking with optional “Best” or “Worst” table output.
Gradient bar, wick, and line coloring driven by consecutive trend counts.
Optional override plot to force a specific SuperTrend independent of ranking.
Practical effect: Charts show the currently best-scoring SuperTrend, not a static choice, plus an on-chart table of top performers for transparency.
How it works (technical)
For each parameter pair, the script computes SuperTrend value and direction. It monitors direction transitions and treats a change from up to down as a long entry and the reverse as an exit, measuring the move between entry and exit using close prices. Results are aggregated per pair either by summing percentage changes or by compounding return factors and then converting to percent for comparison. On the last bar, open trades are included as unrealized contributions to ranking. The best combination’s line is plotted, with separate styling for up and down regimes. Consecutive regime counts are normalized within a rolling window and mapped to gradients for bars, wicks, and lines. A two-column table reports the best or worst performers, with an optional row describing the parameter sweep.
Parameter Guide
Factor (Lower Bound) — Starting SuperTrend factor; the grid adds offsets between zero and three point three. Default three point zero. Higher raises distance to price and reduces flips.
ATR Period (Lower Bound) — Starting ATR length; the grid adds zero, one, and two. Default ten. Longer reduces noise at the cost of responsiveness.
Best vs Worst — Ranks by top or bottom cumulative return. Default Best. Use Worst for stress tests.
Calculation Mode — Additive sums percents; Multiplicative compounds returns. Multiplicative is closer to equity growth and can change the leaderboard.
Show in Table — “Top Three” or “All”. Fewer rows keep charts clean.
Show “Parameters Tested” Label — Displays the effective sweep ranges for auditability.
Plot Override SuperTrend — If enabled, the override factor and ATR are plotted instead of the ranked winner.
Override Factor / ATR Period — Values used when override is on.
Light Mode (for Table) — Adjusts table colors for bright charts.
Gradient/Coloring controls — Toggles for gradient bars and wick coloring, window length for normalization, gamma for contrast, and transparency settings. Use these to emphasize or tone down visual intensity.
Table Position and Text Size — Places the table and sets typography.
Reading & Interpretation
The auto SuperTrend plots one line for up regimes and one for down regimes. Color intensity reflects consecutive trend persistence within the chosen window. A small square at the bottom encodes the same gradient as a compact status channel. Optional wick coloring uses the same gradient for maximum contrast. The performance table lists parameter pairs and their cumulative return under the chosen aggregation; positive values are tinted with the up color, negative with the down color. “Long” labels mark flips that open a long in the simplified model.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Use the auto line as your primary bias. Enter on flips aligned with structure such as higher highs and higher lows. Filter with higher-timeframe trend or volatility contraction.
Exits/Stops: Consider conservative exits when color intensity fades or when the opposite line is approached. Aggressive traders can trail near the plotted line.
Override mode: When you want stability across instruments, enable override and standardize factor and ATR; keep the table visible for sanity checks.
Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults travel well on liquid instruments and intraday to daily timeframes. Heavier assets may prefer larger lower bounds or multiplicative mode.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: Signals are based on SuperTrend direction; confirmation is best assessed on closed bars to avoid mid-bar oscillation. No higher-timeframe requests are used.
Resources: One hundred and two SuperTrend evaluations per bar, arrays for state, and a last-bar table render. This is efficient for the grid size but avoid stacking many instances.
Known limits: The flip model ignores costs, slippage, and short exposure. Rapid whipsaws can degrade both aggregation modes. Gradients are cosmetic and do not change logic.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with the provided lower bounds and “Top Three” table.
Too many flips → raise the lower bound factor or period.
Too sluggish → lower the bounds or switch to additive mode.
Rankings feel unstable → prefer multiplicative mode and extend the normalization window.
Visuals too strong → increase gradient transparency or disable wick coloring.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a parameter-sweep and visualization layer for SuperTrend selection. It is not a complete trading system, not predictive, and does not include position sizing, transaction costs, or risk management. Combine with market structure, higher-timeframe context, and explicit risk controls.
Attribution and refactor note: The original work is by KioseffTrading. The script has been refactored from approximately two thousand three hundred seventy-one lines to about three hundred eighty core lines, retaining behavior without compiler errors. The general simplification pattern is reusable for other indicators.

5. Trading Strategies {#strategies}Strategy 1: Trend Reversal TradingEntry Signals:
Buy: When counter changes from negative to +1
Sell: When counter changes from positive to -1
Confirmation:
Wait for +2 or -2 to confirm trend strength
Use additional indicators (RSI, MACD) for validation
Example:Candle: -5, -6, -7, -8, +1, +2 ← BUY HERE
Stop Loss: Below the -8 candle low
Target: When counter reaches +8 to +10
Strategy 2: Trend Continuation TradingEntry Signals:
Buy: Enter on pullbacks during uptrend (e.g., at +3, +5, +7)
Sell: Enter on bounces during downtrend (e.g., at -3, -5, -7)
Risk Management:
Avoid entering at high numbers (+15, -15) - trend may be exhausted
Example:Candle: +1, +2, +3 ← Small pullback, BUY
Continue: +4, +5, +6, +7
Exit: When counter resets to -1
Strategy 3: Trend Exhaustion DetectionWarning Signs:
Counter reaches +10 or higher → Uptrend may be overextended
Counter reaches -10 or lower → Downtrend may be overextended
Action:
Tighten stop losses
Take partial profits
Watch for reversal patterns (doji, engulfing)
Strategy 4: Multi-Timeframe AnalysisSetup:
Add indicator to 3 timeframes (e.g., 15m, 1h, 4h)
Look for alignment
Best Trades:15m: +1 (new uptrend)
1h: +5 (established uptrend)
4h: +3 (strong uptrend)
→ HIGH PROBABILITY BUY

Stage 2 BasesStage 2 Bases
What is a Stage 2 Base?
Stage 2 = Advancing Phase in Stock price cycle.
Stocks in Stage 2 are in uptrend (50 > 150 > 200-day moving averages).
A pause (consolidation) in an ongoing uptrend.
Price moves sideways for weeks to months after an advance.
Builds energy for the next leg up and allows accumulation.
Strong prior uptrend before the base.
Base length typically 4+ weeks.
Base depth generally 10–40% pullback.
Volume contracts during consolidation.
Breakout occurs above prior highs on strong volume.

🧠 CRT Pattern Types Detected:
Inside Bar CRT: A compression pattern inside a larger range that signals potential breakout or reversal.
Multi-Candle CRT: A group of smaller candles shrinking inside an anchor candle—often a sign of building momentum.
Purge CRT: A deceptive breakout beyond the previous candle’s range, followed by an immediate reversal.
⚙️ Best For:
Traders seeking trend continuation breakout setups
Traders looking to fade false moves or catch reversals
Price action traders who rely on candle structure and traps
Swing, intraday, or even scalping strategies
🧩 Tip:
Combine CRT signals with Key Levels, FVG, support/resistance or order block zones for high-probability confluence entries.
Basic ICT PD Array MarkerIt focuses on OBs and FVGs on your chosen timeframe (e.g., H1 for /NQ). This is open-source friendly and based on ICT logic from community scripts.
X Trade Planlets you define up to 10 fully manual price levels and ranges—each with its own toggle, two prices (for a band/box), an optional note, and a color. The tool draws lines that start at the first bar of a chosen anchor timeframe (e.g., Daily) and extend to the right, mirroring the “fresh start-of-session” look. If two prices are entered, the area between them is shaded using the same color at 60% transparency, so the line and box fill are visually consistent.
Key Features
10 explicit categories (Cat 1 … Cat 10)
Each category includes:
Enable/disable toggle
Price 1 (line) and Price 2 (optional, defines box top/bottom)
Note (optional): label shows note only; hidden automatically if blank
Color: used for the line, box border, and box fill (with 60% transparency)
Anchor-aware drawing
Lines and boxes begin at the new bar of your selected Anchor Timeframe (e.g., D/W/H4), producing clean, session-style extensions.
Clean visuals
Line width is standardized at 1 for a crisp, unobtrusive look
Labels are aligned to the right of current bars and inherit user label styling options (size, text color, background)
No historical dependence
The indicator does not compute or display historical pivots, opens, or derived levels. Everything is user-defined.
Inputs (Per Category)
Cat N (toggle): Show/hide the category
Price 1: Primary level; a horizontal line is drawn when set
Price 2 (optional): When set with Price 1, a box is drawn between the two values
Note (optional): Free-text label; shown only if non-empty
Color: Applies to line, box border, and box fill (fill uses 60% transparency)
Global Inputs
Anchor Timeframe: Timeframe whose new bar defines the start (anchor) of all lines/boxes
Extend Right (bars): Number of bars to extend into the future
Labels (on/off) and label style options (size, text color, background)
How It Works
On the first bar and on each new bar of the anchor timeframe, the indicator captures the current bar index as the anchor for each category.
For each enabled category:
If Price 1 is set, the script draws a horizontal line from the anchor to extend_len bars into the future.
If Price 2 is also set, a box spanning Price 1 ↔ Price 2 is drawn from the anchor to the same future point.
If a Note is provided, a right-side label is rendered at the level (or box midpoint). If the note is empty, no label is shown.
Visual objects are refreshed every bar to ensure alignment with current settings.
Common Use Cases
Scenario planning & playbooks: Define “watch zones” (e.g., Look Above & Fail) and keep them consistent across sessions.
Manual S/R & liquidity areas: Mark hand-picked levels/ranges you care about, without auto-calculated clutter.
Session-like anchoring: Start-of-day/week anchoring to mimic institutional levels that reset each period.
Trade management: Color-coded bands for entries, invalidation, and targets with clear notes
FibPulse144 [CHE] FibPulse144 — ADX-gated 13/21 crossover with 144-trend regime and closed-bar labels
Summary
FibPulse144 combines a fast moving-average crossover with a 144-period trend regime and an ADX strength gate. Signals are confirmed on closed bars only and drawn as labels on the price chart, while an ADX line in a separate pane provides context. Color gradients are derived from normalized ADX, so visual intensity reflects trend strength without changing the underlying logic. The approach reduces false flips during weak conditions and keeps entries aligned with the dominant trend.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traditional crossover signals can flip repeatedly during sideways phases and often trigger against the higher-time regime. By requiring alignment with a slower trend proxy and by gating entries through a rising ADX condition, FibPulse144 favors structurally cleaner transitions. Gradient coloring communicates strength visually, helping users temper aggressiveness without additional indicators.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Baseline: Classic dual-MA crossover with unconditional signals.
Architecture differences:
Two-bar regime confirmation against a 144-period trend average.
Pending-signal logic that waits for regime and optional ADX approval.
ADX strength gate using the prior reading relative to a user threshold and earlier value.
Gradient colors scaled by an ADX window with gamma controls.
Price-chart labels enforced via overlay on an otherwise pane-based indicator.
Practical effect: Fewer signals during weak or choppy conditions, labels that appear only after a bar closes, and color intensity that mirrors trend quality.
How it works (technical)
The script computes fast and slow moving averages using the selected method and lengths. A separate 144-length average defines the regime using a two-bar confirmation above or below it. Crossovers are observed on the previous bar to avoid intrabar ambiguity; once a prior crossover is detected, it is stored as pending. A pending long requires regime alignment and, if enabled, an ADX condition based on the previous reading being above the threshold and greater than an earlier reading. The state machine holds neutral, long, or short until an exit condition or ADX reset is met. ADX is normalized within a user window, scaled with gamma, and mapped to up and down color palettes to render gradients. Labels on the price panel are forced to overlay, while the ADX line and threshold guide remain in a separate pane.
Parameter Guide
Source — Input data for all calculations. Default: close. Tip: keep consistent with your chart.
MA Type — EMA or SMA. Default: EMA. EMA reacts faster; SMA is smoother.
Fast / Slow — Fast and slow lengths for crossover. Defaults: 13 and 21. Shorter reacts earlier; longer reduces noise.
Trend — Regime average length. Default: 144. Larger values stabilize regime; smaller values increase sensitivity.
Use 144 as trend filter — Enables regime gating. Default: true. Disable to allow raw crossovers.
Use ADX filter — Requires ADX strength. Default: true. Disable to allow signals regardless of strength.
ADX Len — DI and ADX smoothing length. Default: 14. Higher values smooth strength; lower values react faster.
ADX Thresh — Minimum strength for signals. Default: 25. Raise to reduce flips; lower to capture earlier moves.
Entry/Exit labels (price) — Price-panel labels on state changes. Default: true.
Signal labels in ADX pane — Small markers at the ADX value on entries. Default: true.
Label size — tiny, small, normal, large. Default: normal.
Enable barcolor — Optional candle tint by regime and gradient. Default: false.
Enable gradient — Turns on ADX-driven color blending. Default: true.
Window — Bars used to normalize ADX for colors. Default: 100; minimum: 5.
Gamma bars / Gamma plots — Nonlinear scaling for bar and line intensities. Default: 0.80; between 0.30 and 2.00.
Gradient transp (0–90) — Transparency for gradient colors. Default: 0.
MA fill transparency (0–100) — Fill opacity between fast and slow lines. Default: 65.
Palette colors (Up/Down) — Dark and neon endpoints for up and down gradients. Defaults as in the code.
Reading & Interpretation
Fast/Slow lines: When the fast line is above the slow line, the line and fill use the long palette; when below, the short palette is used.
Trend MA (144): Neutral gray line indicating the regime boundary.
Labels on price: “LONG” appears when the state turns long; “SHORT” when it turns short. Labels appear only after the bar closes and conditions are satisfied.
ADX pane: The ADX line shows current strength. The dotted threshold line is the user level for gating. Optional small markers indicate entries at the ADX value.
Bar colors (optional): Candle tint intensity reflects normalized ADX. Higher intensity implies stronger conditions.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Use long entries when fast crosses above slow and price has held above the trend average for two bars, with ADX above threshold. Mirror this for shorts below the trend average.
Exits and stops: Consider reducing exposure when price closes on the opposite side of the trend average for two consecutive bars or when ADX fades below the threshold if the ADX filter is enabled.
Structure confirmation: Combine with higher-timeframe structure such as swing highs and lows or a simple market structure overlay for confirmation.
Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Works across liquid assets. For lower timeframes, consider a slightly lower ADX threshold; for higher timeframes, maintain or raise the threshold to avoid unnecessary flips.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: Signals are based on previous-bar crossovers and are confirmed on bar close. No higher-timeframe or security calls are used. Intrabar markers are not relied upon.
Resources: The script declares `max_bars_back` of 2000, uses no loops or arrays, and employs persistent variables for pending signals and state.
Known limits: Crossover systems can lag after sudden reversals. During tight ranges, disabling the ADX filter may increase flips; keeping it enabled may skip early transitions.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Starting point: EMA, 13/21/144, ADX length 14, ADX threshold 25, gradients on, barcolor off.
Too many flips: Increase ADX threshold or length; increase trend length; consider SMA instead of EMA.
Too sluggish: Lower ADX threshold slightly; shorten fast and slow lengths; reduce the trend length.
Colors overpowering: Increase gradient transparency or reduce gamma values toward one.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a visualization and signal layer that combines crossover, regime, and strength gating. It does not predict future movements, manage risk, or execute trades. Use it alongside clear structure, risk controls, and a defined position management plan.

Level Founder indicatorQuesto strumento, ideato per l'individuazione dei livelli orizzontali sensibili si prepone l'obiettivo di semplificare la lettura tecnica dei grafici. Alla base di questo indicatore c'è il concetto di volatilità, inteso come scontro tra domanda ed offerta, come escursione delle forze nel campo di battaglia fino alla determinazione del prezzo finale di ogni candela. Di fatto, andando a cogliere quella che è la volatilità candela per candela, l'indicatore la calcola in termini assoluti rendendola un numericamente comparabile, in un range tra 0 e 100. Quando questo valore tocca i 100 si genera un picco di volatilità, il quale va ad identificare un punto di attenzione sul grafico di uno strumento. In corrispondenza di questi picchi si osserva dove la battaglia tra compratori e venditori si è conclusa, ovvero dove domanda ed offerta si sono incontrati per definire un prezzo: la chiusura di candela. In corrispondenza di tale prezzo si ha, quindi, un accordo certo tra domanda ed offerta dopo un periodo di contrattazione volatile, andando a certificare quello che è un livello di prezzo "sudato" per un determinato sottostante. Tale soglia si traduce in un livello orizzontale sensibile, che in futuro (avendo il mercato memoria degli scontri passati) potrà comportarsi da supporto o da resistenza, a seconda della situazione. In breve quindi, si traccia una linea orizzontale in corrispondenza delle chiusure di candela che condividono un picco sull'indicatore "Level Founder Indicator". Funziona su ogni time-frame e sottostante.
N.B. A ridosso di questi livelli si possono cercare pattern per l'operatività oppure cercare delle rotture di questi livelli per delle conferme/inversioni, spaziando dal trading intraday all'investimento di lungo periodo.
ENGLISH VERSION:
This tool, designed to identify sensitive horizontal levels, aims to simplify the technical reading of charts. This indicator is based on the concept of volatility, understood as the clash between supply and demand, the oscillation of forces on the battlefield until the final price of each candlestick is determined. By capturing the volatility candlestick by candlestick, the indicator calculates it in absolute terms, making it numerically comparable, within a range between 0 and 100. When this value reaches 100, a volatility spike is generated, which identifies a point of focus on an instrument's chart. At these peaks, we observe where the battle between buyers and sellers has concluded, that is, where supply and demand have met to define a price: the candlestick's close. At this price, therefore, a definite agreement between supply and demand occurs after a period of volatile trading, certifying what is a "hard-earned" price level for a given underlying asset. This threshold translates into a sensitive horizontal level, which in the future (given the market's memory of past clashes) could act as support or resistance, depending on the situation. In short, a horizontal line is drawn at the candlestick closes that share a peak on the "Level Founder Indicator." It works on any timeframe and underlying asset.
N.B.: Near these levels, you can look for trading patterns or look for breakouts of these levels for confirmations/reversals, ranging from intraday trading to long-term investing.
Power Hour Breakout Signals [LuxAlgo]The Power Hour Breakout tool helps traders identify key price levels from the Power Hour and spot breakouts from those levels easily. This tool features Power Hour extensions, Fibonacci levels, and session break marks for the trader's convenience.
🔶 USAGE
The Power Hour is defined as the last hour of the trading session and is set by default from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. New York time. During this period, volume and volatility enter the market. Traders using higher timeframes may use this period to enter or exit positions by placing MOC (Market on Close) orders.
This tool highlights the Power Hour and the top and bottom price levels. Each time prices break out from these levels, a signal is displayed on the chart.
We can use the Power Hour to gauge market sentiment:
Bullish sentiment: Price trades above the Power Hour.
Mixed sentiment: Price trades within the Power Hour.
Bearish sentiment: Price trades below the Power Hour.
🔹 Displaying Power Hours and Breakouts
By default, all detected Power Hours are displayed. Traders can manually adjust this number by disabling the "Display All" parameter in the Settings panel.
Breakouts are displayed by default, too, but this feature can be disabled as well.
The chart above shows different configurations of these parameters.
🔹 Power Hour Extensions
Traders can use Power Hour extensions as potential targets for breakout signals.
In the settings panel, traders can select the percentage of the Power Hour price range to use for each extension. For example, 100% uses the full range, 200% uses the range twice, and so on.
As seen on the chart, traders can configure different percentages for the top and bottom extensions.
🔹 Fibonacci Levels
Traders can display default or custom Fibonacci levels on the Power Hour range to identify retracement opportunities and evaluate market movement strength. Each level can be enabled or disabled, as well as customized by level, color, and line style.
For example, as we can see on the chart, prices attempt to break out at the Power Hour top level, then retrace to the 0.618 Fibonacci level, and then rise to the 200% Power Hour top extension.
🔶 SETTINGS
Display Last X Power Hours: Select how many Power Hours to display or enable the Display All feature.

Consecutive Candles CounterThe Consecutive Candles Counter is a simple yet powerful indicator designed to help traders identify and analyze consecutive red or green candle patterns on any timeframe. This tool automatically counts unbroken streaks of bullish or bearish candles within your specified date range, making it easier to spot momentum trends and potential reversal points.
Key Features
Dual Mode Tracking: Toggle between counting consecutive red (bearish) or green (bullish) candles with a single click
Custom Date Range: Set specific start and end dates to analyze historical patterns or focus on recent price action
Visual Streak Display: Clean line graph showing the progression of consecutive candles over time
Real-Time Information Table: Displays current streak count, candle type, and date range status at a glance
Customizable Interface:
Show/hide the information table
Adjust table size from Tiny to Huge
Color-coded visuals (red for bearish, green for bullish)
Works on All Timeframes: Optimized for daily charts but functions on any timeframe
How It Works
The indicator monitors each candle's close price relative to its open price:
Red Candle: Close < Open (bearish)
Green Candle: Close > Open (bullish)
When consecutive candles of the selected type appear, the counter increases. The streak resets to zero when:
An opposite color candle appears
The price action moves outside your specified date range
Use Cases
Momentum Trading: Identify extended runs of bullish or bearish candles that may signal strong trends
Reversal Detection: Spot when consecutive streaks end, potentially indicating trend exhaustion
Pattern Analysis: Study historical consecutive candle patterns to understand market behavior
Risk Management: Recognize when a trend might be overextended
Backtesting: Test strategies based on consecutive candle counts within specific date ranges

This tool plots the key New York time anchors (00:00, 07:30, 08:30, 09:30, 10:00, 14:00), higher-timeframe period opens (Week/Month/Quarter), and previous Day/Week/Month ranges (with optional EQ). It’s built for intraday reading of liquidity, timing, and bias—without clutter.
Note: Intraday only. If you open it on a Daily (or higher) chart, the script will stop and let you know.
What it draws
-NY Session Time Anchors
Optional horizontal price lines, vertical markers, or both for:
00:00 (Midnight), 07:30, 08:30, 09:30 (NY Open), 10:00, 14:00.
Each anchor can extend to the right for a set number of bars and can auto-stop at AM or PM cutoff (your choice).
-Period Opens (HTF)
Week Open (W.O), Month Open (M.O), Quarter Open (Q.O) as price lines and/or vertical markers.
These use your selected PM cutoff as the stop time.
-Previous Ranges (with optional EQ)
PDH/PDL (pdh/pdl), PWH/PWL (pwh/pwl), PMH/PML (pmh/pml), and optional midpoint EQ lines (pde/pwe/pme).
Each prior line can auto-stop on first touch (optional) or at the PM cutoff.
Why traders use it
Session timing clarity – Markers for common NY “decision points” remove guesswork.
Bias framing – HTF opens (W/M/Q) help you judge premium/discount and weekly/monthly/quarterly context intraday.
Targeting – Prior highs/lows (and EQ) often act as magnets or rejection points; having them pre-plotted speeds up decision-making.
Cleaner workflow – Replace ad-hoc lines with a unified, consistent system you can toggle quickly.
Key options (Inputs → grouped for speed)

00:00, 07:30, 08:30, 09:30 (NY Open), 10:00, 14:00.
-Period Opens
Week / Month / Quarter – each can be Price Line / Vertical / Both, with style/width/color.
-Previous Prices
Previous Day / Week / Month – toggle lines, optional EQ, style/width/color per timeframe.
Tips & usage
Intraday only. If nothing renders, check you’re on < 1D and that your Anchor Timezone matches your session model.
Stop on touch creates clean, uncluttered charts during fast moves. Turn it off when you want persistent levels.
Keep prior sessions > 0 to study how price interacted with yesterday’s anchors alongside today’s action.
EQ midpoints are powerful: turn them on when you want quick premium/discount reference within the prior range.
Labels & tags
Previous Day: pdh, pdl, pde
Previous Week: pwh, pwl, pwe
Previous Month: pmh, pml, pme
Period opens: W.O, M.O, Q.O
Time anchors: printed as the time or “NY Open”.
Compatibility & performance
Works on futures, forex, and crypto as long as your exchange’s session aligns with the selected Anchor Timezone.
Internally compacts inactive lines to keep charts responsive, even with many sessions loaded.

Fractal Strength OscillatorThe Fractal Strength Oscillator Indicator combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Fractal Dimension Index (FDI) to identify market momentum and trend direction. By integrating RSI's momentum signals with FDI's fractal-based trend analysis, this indicator provides clear visual cues for bullish and bearish conditions through colored plots and price bars.
How It Works
RSI Calculation: Computes RSI based on a user-selected price source (default: Close) over a configurable period. Optional smoothing with various moving average types (e.g., SMA, EMA, ALMA) enhances signal clarity.
FDI Calculation: Measures market complexity using a fractal dimension over a user-defined period (default: 20). A threshold (default: 1.45) determines trend strength.
Trend Logic
Bullish Signal: RSI > 55 or FDI < threshold indicates upward momentum
Bearish Signal: RSI < 45 or FDI > threshold indicates downward momentum
Customization & Parameters
RSI Parameters: RSI length, smoothing option , MA type, MA length, ALMA sigma
FDI Parameters: FDI length, trend threshold.
Trading Applications
Momentum Trading: Use RSI and FDI signals for entry/exit points.
Trend Confirmation: Bar coloring aligns with trend signals.
Reversal Detection: Identify shifts when RSI or FDI crosses thresholds
Final Note
The Fractal Strength Oscillator Indicator is a straightforward tool for traders seeking momentum and trend insights. Its combination of RSI, FDI, and visual cues supports informed trading decisions. Backtest thoroughly and use within a broader strategy. This indicator is for educational purposes and not financial advice.
