Four-Color Order Flow System Four-Color Order Flow System – Smart Money Liquidity Tracking
Revolutionizing Market Structure with a Four-Color Candle System
Traditional candlestick charts lack real-time liquidity visibility, forcing traders to rely on lagging indicators. The Four-Color Order Flow System solves this by integrating Order Blocks (OBs), Accumulation/Distribution (AD), Swing High/Low (SH/SL), and Delta metrics directly into the candle structure. This mashup of volume, price action, and liquidity flow gives traders an intuitive and immediate read on market conditions.
📌 Key Features & How They Work Together
🔹 Four-Color Candles – A Visual Edge Over Traditional Charts
Instead of basic red/green candles, we introduce a four-color system to highlight key liquidity shifts:
• 🔴 Red – Bearish pressure, aggressive sellers dominating.
• 🟢 Green – Bullish pressure, buyers stepping in.
• 🔵 Blue – Swing Highs (SH), Bullish Order Blocks (OBs), Accumulation zones.
• 🟡 Yellow – Swing Lows (SL), areas of liquidity sweep or potential reversal.
This eliminates the need to switch between multiple indicators—price structure, liquidity zones, and order flow are embedded directly into the chart.
🔹 EMA Logic – The Trend Foundation
The EMA acts as the core trend filter, dynamically adjusting to market bias. When combined with delta and liquidity flow, it helps traders confirm whether price action aligns with smart money movements.
🔹 Order Flow & Liquidity Mashup – What’s Really Moving the Market?
📊 Rolling Delta & Cumulative Delta – Track aggressive buyers/sellers and confirm if momentum is sustained or fading.
💰 Liquidity Flow & Shift – Shows whether market makers are accumulating or distributing, helping traders avoid fake breakouts.
📈 Money Flow Index & Value – Measures real institutional participation vs. retail noise.
These elements combine to validate price moves, making it clear when smart money is truly in control.
🔹 Swing Highs & Lows – Market Structure in Real-Time
SH/SL markers don’t lag behind multiple candles like in traditional indicators. Instead, they align with OBs and liquidity flow, giving a strong confirmation of trend continuation or reversal.
🔹 Live Label Update – Real-Time Market Intelligence
The dynamic label box provides a live feed of critical metrics, including:
✅ EMA Bias – Confirms market direction.
✅ Rolling & Cumulative Delta – Tracks aggressive buy/sell imbalances.
✅ Liquidity Flow & Money Flow Index – Confirms institutional strength.
✅ FVG Execution Scanning (Coming Soon!)
This ensures traders have instant insight into market conditions without needing to check multiple sources.
📈 Why Traders Need This System
🔹 Faster Decision-Making – No need to flip between indicators; everything is visible on the chart.
🔹 Clearer Liquidity Insights – Order flow, delta, and structure all in sync.
🔹 Works for Scalping & Day Trading – Designed for real-time execution, not lagging signals.
By integrating order blocks, liquidity shifts, and a four-color candle system, this tool provides the most complete view of market control in a single chart.
📌 Stop reacting. Start anticipating. Trade with the flow of smart money.
Fibonacci RangeFibonacci Range 50 Indicator
The Fibonacci Range 50 indicator is designed to help traders identify potential price reversal zones and breakout levels by utilizing the 50% Fibonacci retracement level as a key reference point. This indicator is particularly useful for traders who rely on technical analysis and price action to make informed trading decisions.
How It Works:
Identifies the Range – The indicator automatically detects a significant price range, typically based on the highest and lowest points of a given session (e.g., Asian session, previous day’s range, or a custom timeframe).
Plots Fibonacci Levels – The key 50% Fibonacci retracement level is calculated within this range, acting as a dynamic midpoint that often serves as a pivot zone for price movements.
Breakout & Reversal Signals –
If the price rejects the 50% level, it may indicate a trend continuation or range-bound movement.
If the price breaks above or below the range with momentum, it may signal a potential breakout trade opportunity.
Key Features:
✅ Automatic Fibonacci Level Calculation – No manual drawing required.
✅ Customizable Time Ranges – Allows traders to adjust the indicator based on their preferred trading session.
✅ Works Across Different Markets – Effective for Forex, Crypto, and Stock trading.
✅ Breakout & Reversal Strategy Integration – Can be used in conjunction with other indicators such as Moving Averages, RSI, and MACD.
Ideal For:
Intraday traders looking for high-probability setups.
Swing traders identifying potential turning points.
Traders using breakout strategies based on price action.
This indicator provides traders with clear and actionable insights to improve their trade entries, stop-loss placements, and profit targets. 🚀
TMO (True Momentum Oscillator)TMO ((T)rue (M)omentum (O)scilator)
Created by Mobius V01.05.2018 TOS Convert to TV using Claude 3.7 and ChatGPT 03 Mini :
TMO calculates momentum using the delta of price. Giving a much better picture of trend, tend reversals and divergence than momentum oscillators using price.
True Momentum Oscillator (TMO)
The True Momentum Oscillator (TMO) is a momentum-based technical indicator designed to identify trend direction, trend strength, and potential reversal points in the market. It's particularly useful for spotting overbought and oversold conditions, aiding traders in timing their entries and exits.
How it Works:
The TMO calculates market momentum by analyzing recent price action:
Momentum Calculation:
For a user-defined length (e.g., 14 bars), TMO compares the current closing price to past open prices. It assigns:
+1 if the current close is greater than the open price of the past bar (indicating bullish momentum).
-1 if it's less (indicating bearish momentum).
0 if there's no change.
The sum of these scores gives a raw momentum measure.
EMA Smoothing:
To reduce noise and false signals, this raw momentum is smoothed using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
First, the raw data is smoothed by an EMA over a short calculation period (default: 5).
Then, it undergoes additional smoothing through another EMA (default: 3 bars), creating the primary "Main" line of the indicator.
Lastly, a "Signal" line is derived by applying another EMA (also default: 3 bars) to the main line, adding further refinement.
Trend Identification:
The indicator plots two lines:
Main Line: Indicates current momentum strength and direction.
Signal Line: Acts as a reference line, similar to a moving average crossover system.
When the Main line crosses above the Signal line, it suggests strengthening bullish momentum. Conversely, when the Main line crosses below the Signal line, it indicates increasing bearish momentum.
Overbought/Oversold Levels:
The indicator identifies key levels based on the chosen length parameter:
Overbought zone (positive threshold): Suggests the market might be overheated, and a potential bearish reversal or pullback could occur.
Oversold zone (negative threshold): Suggests the market might be excessively bearish, signaling a potential bullish reversal.
Clouds visually mark these overbought/oversold areas, making it easy to see potential reversal zones.
Trading Applications:
Trend-following: Traders can enter positions based on crossovers of the Main and Signal lines.
Reversals: The overbought and oversold areas highlight high-probability reversal points.
Momentum confirmation: Use TMO to confirm price action or other technical signals, improving trade accuracy and timing.
The True Momentum Oscillator provides clarity in identifying momentum shifts, making it a valuable addition to various trading strategies.

The Fractal Range Model follows a specific lifecycle, which highlights the current state of the model and determines whether a trade opportunity is valid.
The model's lifecycle includes the following statuses:
Formation (grey)
Invalidation (red)
Success (green)
1. Formation
The Formation phase marks the initial setup of the Fractal Range Model. During this stage, the model identifies and plots key components, such as:
Sweeps: Market movements that indicate a potential reversal or strong shift in trend.
CISD (Change In State of Delivery): A structural change that provides insight into trend shifts.
Once these components are detected, the model automatically calculates and displays Projections and Liquidity Levels , offering insights into potential price action movements.
At this stage, the model also identifies and displays the following key elements:
HTF PD Arrays (Higher-Timeframe Price Delivery Arrays)
LTF PD Arrays (Lower-Timeframe Price Delivery Arrays)
Smart Money Technique (SMT)
If any of these elements are present, they will be automatically displayed on the chart.
2. Invalidation
A Fractal Range Model is considered invalidated when the price does not reach the 2 Standard Deviation level or the first identified liquidity level, and when the price breaks above the high that formed the Sweep.
Invalidation signals that the original setup is no longer reliable, and traders should avoid taking action based on the model's original parameters.
Key invalidation conditions:
Price fails to reach the 2 Standard Deviation level.
Price fails to reach the first liquidity level.
Price breaks the high/low that initiated the Sweep.
A potentially invalidated model is marked with a purple color above the label, indicating the sweep is invalidated by the next candle, but not the high that formed the sweep.
3. Success
A Fractal Range Model is considered successful when the price reaches the 2 Standard Deviation level or the first identified liquidity level. This indicates that the model's predictions align with actual market movements, confirming the setup's validity and providing a potential trading signal.
At this stage, alongside Projections and Liquidity levels, you'll also notice the C-area — the region between the current candle's open and the previous candle's mean. If respected, price action will follow the model's direction.
Key success conditions:
Price reaches the 2 Standard Deviation level.
Price reaches the first liquidity level.
By leveraging these phases, Formation, Invalidation, and Success, traders can effectively manage their positions, minimize risk, and capitalize on high-probability setups based on the Fractal Range Model.

SMIIOLThis indicator generates long signals.
The operation of the indicator is as follows;
First, true strength index is calculated with closing prices. We call this the "ergodic" curve.
Then the average of the ergodic (ema) is calculated to obtain the "signal" curve.
To calculate the "oscillator", the signal is subtracted from ergodic (oscillator = ergodic - signal).
The last variable to be used in the calculation is the average volume, calculated with sma.
Calculation for long signal;
- If the ergodic curve cross up the lower band and,
- If the hma slope is positive,
If all the above conditions are fullfilled, the long input signal is issued with "Buy" label.
Dynamic CAGR LineIndicator: Dynamic CAGR Line
Overview
This Pine Script (version 6) creates a custom indicator called "Dynamic CAGR Moving Line," designed to calculate and display the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) in percentage terms for a financial instrument, such as a stock or cryptocurrency, based on a user-defined lookback period (default: 5 years). Unlike traditional overlays that plot directly on the price chart, this indicator appears in a separate pane below the chart, providing a clear visual of how the CAGR evolves over time with each new candle.
Purpose
The indicator helps traders and investors analyze the annualized growth rate of an asset’s price over a specified historical period. By plotting the CAGR as a percentage in a separate pane, users can easily track how the growth rate changes as new price data is added, offering insights into long-term performance trends without cluttering the price chart.
How It Works
User Input:
The script begins with an input parameter, lookback_years, allowing users to define the number of years (e.g., 5) to look back for the CAGR calculation. This is a floating-point value with a minimum of 1 and a step of 0.5, adjustable via the indicator’s settings in TradingView.
Timeframe Conversion:
Assuming a daily chart, the script converts the lookback years into a number of bars using bars_per_year = 252 (the average number of trading days in a year). The total lookback period in bars is calculated as lookback_bars = math.round(lookback_years * bars_per_year). For example, 5 years equals approximately 1260 bars.
Price Data:
For each candle, the start_price is fetched from the closing price lookback_bars ago (e.g., the close price from 5 years prior), using close .
The end_price is the current candle’s closing price, accessed via close.
CAGR Calculation:
The total return is computed as (end_price - start_price) / start_price, measuring the percentage change from the start price to the current price.
To avoid division-by-zero errors, a conditional check ensures start_price != 0; if it is, the return defaults to 0.
The CAGR is then calculated using the formula: math.pow(1 + total_return, 1 / lookback_years) - 1, which annualizes the total return over the lookback period.
The result is converted to a percentage by multiplying by 100 (cagr_percent = cagr * 100).
Plotting:
The CAGR percentage is plotted as a blue line in a separate pane using plot(). The line only appears after enough data exists (bar_index >= lookback_bars), otherwise it plots na (not available).
A label is added for each candle, displaying the current CAGR percentage (e.g., "CAGR: 5.23%") near the plotted value, styled with a blue background and white text.
Usage
Chart Setup: Apply the indicator to a daily chart with sufficient historical data (e.g., more than 5 years for the default setting). It’s designed for daily timeframes but can be adapted for others by adjusting bars_per_year (e.g., 52 for weekly).
Interpretation: A positive CAGR (e.g., 5%) indicates annualized growth, while a negative value (e.g., -2%) shows an annualized decline. A flat line at 0% suggests no net change over the lookback period.
Customization: Adjust lookback_years in the settings to analyze different periods (e.g., 3 or 10 years).
Notes
Ensure your chart has enough data to cover the lookback period, or the line won’t appear until sufficient bars are available.
For debugging, you can temporarily plot start_price and end_price on the main chart to verify the calculation inputs.

HH-HL-HH and LL-LH-LL Screener with AlertsAh, it seems you're referring to "Higher Low Higher High" in the context of **trading signals**! In trading, especially in technical analysis, these terms could be describing patterns or movements of price action that traders use to make decisions.
Let’s break down the terms you mentioned:
### 1. **Higher Low (HL)**:
- A **Higher Low** occurs when the price forms a low point that is higher than the previous low. It indicates upward momentum and suggests that the market may be in an uptrend or reversing to an uptrend.
For example:
- The price hits a low at $50, then rises to $60, then drops to $55. The **$55 low** is higher than the previous $50 low, indicating a potential uptrend.
### 2. **Higher High (HH)**:
- A **Higher High** happens when the price forms a high that is higher than the previous high. This is a strong bullish signal and is typical in an uptrend.
For example:
- The price reaches a peak of $70, drops to $60, then rises to $75. The **$75 high** is higher than the previous $70 high, indicating upward momentum.
### The Sequence: **Higher Low, Higher High (HL-HH)**
- This sequence (HL-HH) suggests that the market is in a **bullish trend**, with each subsequent low being higher than the previous low and each high being higher than the previous high. It’s a confirmation that the price is generally trending upwards, and traders might look for **buying opportunities**.
### 3. **Lower Low (LL)**:
- A **Lower Low** is when the price forms a low that is lower than the previous low, which is typically a sign of downward momentum. Traders may interpret this as a bearish signal.
For example:
- If the price drops from $60 to $55, then falls to $50, the **$50 low** is lower than the previous $55 low, indicating a potential downtrend.
### 4. **Lower High (LH)**:
- A **Lower High** occurs when the price forms a high that is lower than the previous high. This can indicate a weakening uptrend or the start of a downtrend.
For example:
- The price peaks at $70, then drops to $60, and later rises to $65. The **$65 high** is lower than the previous $70 high, suggesting bearish pressure.
### The Sequence: **Lower Low, Lower High (LL-LH)**
- The **LL-LH** pattern suggests a **bearish trend**, where the price forms lower lows and lower highs. This could signal to traders that the price is in a downward movement, and they might look for **selling opportunities**.
---
### Using This in Trading:
Traders often look for **higher highs** and **higher lows** in an uptrend (HL-HH), or **lower lows** and **lower highs** in a downtrend (LL-LH) to gauge market direction and make decisions.
- **Bullish Sign**: Higher Low, Higher High (HL-HH) = Look for buying signals or long positions.
- **Bearish Sign**: Lower Low, Lower High (LL-LH) = Look for selling signals or short positions.

DUN Lines IndicatorThe DUN Lines indicator detects, filters and plots price imbalances (aka fair value gaps or fvgs/ifvgs). It is unique in the fact that it uses five timeframes and filters out overlapping, lower timeframe imbalances and fvgs below a user-definable size threshold.
Simply set your detection timeframes, colors and thresholds then set your chart to your preferred entry timeframe. When imbalances are mitigated, the FVG/IFVG is removed from the chart.
The indicator's default colors are my preferred ones for differentiating between timeframes, but these are easily changed. A single color with various levels of transparency to indicate timeframe strength is another approach that works nicely.
Liquidity + Internal Market Shift StrategyLiquidity + Internal Market Shift Strategy
This strategy combines liquidity zone analysis with the internal market structure, aiming to identify high-probability entry points. It uses key liquidity levels (local highs and lows) to track the price's interaction with significant market levels and then employs internal market shifts to trigger trades.
Key Features:
Internal Shift Logic: Instead of relying on traditional candlestick patterns like engulfing candles, this strategy utilizes internal market shifts. A bullish shift occurs when the price breaks previous bearish levels, and a bearish shift happens when the price breaks previous bullish levels, indicating a change in market direction.
Liquidity Zones: The strategy dynamically identifies key liquidity zones (local highs and lows) to detect potential reversal points and prevent trades in weak market conditions.
Mode Options: You can choose to run the strategy in "Both," "Bullish Only," or "Bearish Only" modes, allowing for flexibility based on market conditions.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit: Customizable stop-loss and take-profit levels are integrated to manage risk and lock in profits.
Time Range Control: You can specify the time range for trading, ensuring the strategy only operates during the desired period.
This strategy is ideal for traders who want to combine liquidity analysis with internal structure shifts for precise market entries and exits.
This description clearly outlines the strategy's logic, the flexibility it provides, and how it works. You can adjust it further to match your personal trading style or preferences!
Internal Market StructureInternal Market Structure Indicator (Based on Bearish/Bullish Candle Patterns)
This custom market structure indicator is designed to help traders identify key shifts in market pressure based on bullish and bearish candle patterns. The indicator tracks consecutive bullish and bearish candles and identifies significant points where the price action suggests a potential reversal or continuation of the current market trend.
Key Features:
1. Bullish & Bearish Candle Recognition: The indicator monitors individual candles to determine if they are bullish (close > open) or bearish (close < open), and uses this information to track price direction over consecutive candles.
2. Consecutive Candle Tracking: It tracks consecutive bullish and bearish candles, giving insight into the strength of the prevailing trend. The number of consecutive candles can be adjusted to refine the analysis based on market conditions.
3. Engulfing Candle Detection: The indicator identifies Bullish and Bearish Engulfing signals when a reversal pattern is detected. These are plotted as triangle shapes on the chart:
-Bullish Engulfing: Indicates a potential reversal or continuation of an upward move, where a bullish candle fully engulfs the previous bearish candle.
-Bearish Engulfing: Indicates a potential reversal or continuation of a downward move, where a bearish candle fully engulfs the previous bullish candle.
4. Internal Shifts: The indicator also tracks Internal Shifts, which occur when the price closes beyond the highest or lowest levels of previous bullish or bearish sequences, signaling a potential trend change:
-Bullish Internal Shift: A shift indicating the market may be turning bullish.
-Bearish Internal Shift: A shift indicating the market may be turning bearish.
5. Alerts: Custom alerts are included to notify traders when any of the above conditions are met:

Trapped Traders Order BlocksHow It Works
The Trapped Traders Order Blocks indicator identifies specific price action patterns that suggest large market participants ("big money") have been trapped in losing positions after significant price sweeps, creating potential opportunities for reversals. The indicator detects both "bullish trap blocks" (where bearish traders are trapped) and "bearish trap blocks" (where bullish traders are trapped). Here’s the step-by-step process for each:
Bullish Trap Block (Bears Trapped):
A bearish candle (Candle A) must sweep the high of the previous candle (Candle B), meaning its high exceeds the high of the prior candle.
This bearish candle must have a longer upper wick than its lower wick, indicating rejection of higher prices.
The candle must not be a doji (i.e., it must have a significant body, defined as the body being at least 10% of the candle's range).
The next candle (Candle C) must close above the body of the bearish candle (Candle A), suggesting that price has immediately moved against the bearish sweep, potentially trapping bearish traders who entered short positions expecting a downward move.
The body of the bearish candle (Candle A) is marked as a "bullish trap block." A box is drawn around this candle's body, and a label ("Bullish Trap") is placed below it.
Bearish Trap Block (Bulls Trapped):
A bullish candle (Candle A) must sweep the low of the previous candle (Candle B), meaning its low is below the low of the prior candle.
This bullish candle must have a longer lower wick than its upper wick, indicating rejection of lower prices.
The candle must not be a doji.
The next candle (Candle C) must close below the body of the bullish candle (Candle A), suggesting that price has immediately moved against the bullish sweep, potentially trapping bullish traders who entered long positions expecting an upward move.
The body of the bullish candle (Candle A) is marked as a "bearish trap block." A box is drawn around this candle's body, and a label ("Bearish Trap") is placed above it.
Dynamic Box Extension:
For both bullish and bearish trap blocks, the box extends dynamically to the current bar unless it exceeds a user-defined age (default is 52 bars), at which point it stops at the maximum age.
Sweep Detection:
Bullish Sweep (of any trap block, bullish or bearish):
The current candle's open is above the top of the box.
The low is below the top of the box.
The close is above the top of the box.
The lower wick is longer than the upper wick (indicating rejection of lower prices).
The close is above 50% of the candle's range (ensuring a strong bullish bias).
When a bullish sweep occurs, a label ("Bullish Sweep") is placed at the low of the candle, pointing upward, and an alert is triggered.
Bearish Sweep (of any trap block, bullish or bearish):
The current candle's open is below the bottom of the box.
The high is above the bottom of the box.
The close is below the bottom of the box.
The upper wick is longer than the lower wick (indicating rejection of higher prices).
The close is below 50% of the candle's range (ensuring a strong bearish bias).
When a bearish sweep occurs, a label ("Bearish Sweep") is placed at the high of the candle, pointing downward, and an alert is triggered.
When to Be Used
The Trapped Traders Order Blocks indicator is best used in the following scenarios:
Reversal Trading:
Use this indicator to identify potential reversal points in the market. Bullish trap blocks suggest that trapped bears may unwind their short positions, leading to a potential bullish move. Bearish trap blocks suggest that trapped bulls may unwind their long positions, leading to a potential bearish move.
Look for sweeps of these blocks as confirmation of a directional move. A bullish sweep indicates a potential upward move, while a bearish sweep indicates a potential downward move.
Range-Bound Markets:
In sideways or ranging markets, trapped blocks can highlight key levels where large players have been caught off-guard. These levels often act as support or resistance, and a sweep of the block can signal a breakout or continuation in the direction of the sweep.
Confluence with Other Indicators:
Combine the trapped blocks with other technical analysis tools, such as support/resistance levels, Fibonacci retracements, or volume analysis, to increase the probability of a successful trade. For example, a bullish trap block near a strong support level with a bullish sweep can provide a high-probability setup for a long position, while a bearish trap block near a strong resistance level with a bearish sweep can signal a short opportunity.
Timeframes:
The indicator is most effective on higher timeframes such as 1-day (1D), 1-week (1W), and 1-month (1M) charts. These timeframes are more likely to capture significant moves involving large market participants, reducing noise and false signals compared to lower timeframes. While it can be used on lower timeframes (e.g., 1-hour or 4-hour), the signals may be less reliable due to increased market noise.
Logic Behind It
The logic behind the Trapped Traders Order Blocks indicator is rooted in market psychology and the behavior of large market participants ("big money"). When a large sweep candle occurs where price spikes in one direction but then quickly reverses it often indicates that traders have entered positions in the direction of the sweep, expecting a continuation. However, if the price immediately moves against them, these traders are now trapped in losing positions.
Bullish Trap Block (Bears Trapped):
A large bearish sweep candle (spiking upward but closing lower) suggests that bearish traders (bears) have entered short positions at the top of the move, expecting a downward continuation. If the next candle closes above the bearish candle's body, these bears are trapped in losing positions.
The body of the bearish candle becomes a "bullish trap block" because the trapped bears are likely to have placed their stop-loss orders or break-even exit orders just above the high of the sweep candle or within the body of the candle. As price revisits this level in the future, these trapped traders may attempt to unwind their positions by buying back their shorts, which can drive the price higher. This unwinding process often attracts new buyers, leading to a potential bullish reversal or continuation.
The bullish sweep conditions (e.g., close > box top, longer lower wick, and close above 50% of the range) ensure that the price action at the block level shows strong bullish momentum and rejection of lower prices, confirming the potential for a move higher.
Bearish Trap Block (Bulls Trapped):
A large bullish sweep candle (spiking downward but closing higher) suggests that bullish traders (bulls) have entered long positions at the bottom of the move, expecting an upward continuation. If the next candle closes below the bullish candle's body, these bulls are trapped in losing positions.
The body of the bullish candle becomes a "bearish trap block" because the trapped bulls are likely to have placed their stop-loss orders or break-even exit orders just below the low of the sweep candle or within the body of the candle. As price revisits this level in the future, these trapped traders may attempt to unwind their positions by selling their longs, which can drive the price lower. This unwinding process often attracts new sellers, leading to a potential bearish reversal or continuation.
The bearish sweep conditions (e.g., close < box bottom, longer upper wick, and close below 50% of the range) ensure that the price action at the block level shows strong bearish momentum and rejection of higher prices, confirming the potential for a move lower.
Summary
Bullish Trap Block: Occurs when bears get trapped after a bearish sweep candle is immediately followed by a bullish candle, indicating a potential reversal as trapped bears may unwind their positions.
Bearish Trap Block: Occurs when bulls get trapped after a bullish sweep candle is immediately followed by a bearish candle, indicating a potential bearish reversal.
Use Case: Ideal for identifying reversal opportunities, especially in range-bound markets or at key support/resistance levels on higher timeframes like 1D, 1W, and 1M, and can be combined with other indicators for confluence.
Logic: Large sweep candles followed by an immediate reversal suggest that big money has been trapped, and these traders may unwind their positions at break-even in the near future, driving price in the opposite direction of their initial trade.
This indicator provides a visual and actionable way to identify these trapped trader scenarios, with customizable settings for box display, sweep visuals, and alerts to help traders capitalize on these opportunities, particularly on higher timeframes where the signals are most reliable.
ICT SMT (fadi)The ICT SMT (fadi) Indicator is a powerful indicator inspired by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology, designed to identify Smart Money Technique (SMT) divergences between correlated assets. This indicator helps traders spot potential reversal points or trend shifts by comparing price action of a user-defined symbol (e.g., “ES1!” for E-mini S&P 500 futures) against the current chart’s price structure. Ideal for forex, indices, futures, and crypto markets, it highlights discrepancies in correlated asset behavior to enhance trading decisions.
These discrepancies occur when one asset shows signs of strength—such as holding support or rallying—while the other weakens or drops, signaling potential manipulation or a shift in smart money activity. This is relevant because it reveals where institutional traders may be accumulating or distributing positions, giving insight into impending trend changes. This indicator offers higher accuracy and detects nearly every SMT present on the chart by calculating multiple possibilities.
Features
• Smart Algorithmic detection of high probability SMTs
• Detect SMT with two other symbols
• Detect 2-Candle SMT as an additional configurable option
• Confirmation and Invalidation levels
• Expand or narrow the detection range by changing the number of pivots to use
• Raise alerts when SMT has been detected
Usage
1. Apply the indicator to your chart.
2. In the settings, input a correlated symbol (e.g., “NQ1!” for Nasdaq futures if charting “ES1!”, or “EURUSD” if analyzing “GBPUSD”).
3. Monitor the plotted markers and labels:
• Green markers for bullish divergences.
• Red markers for bearish divergences.
4. Combine with other ICT concepts (e.g., order blocks, liquidity zones) for higher-probability setups.
Best Practices
• Pair with strongly correlated assets (e.g., ES vs. NQ, EURUSD vs. GBPUSD) for reliable signals.
• Backtest on your chosen market to confirm effectiveness.
Combined Support & Resistance IndicatorsPivot Points Calculation:
The script calculates the Pivot Point as the average of the high price (high), low price (low), and closing price (close) of the current bar.
The Pivot Point is plotted on the chart as a red line.
Support and Resistance Levels:
The Support Level is calculated as the lowest price over the last lookback bars.
The Resistance Level is calculated as the highest price over the last lookback bars.
These levels are displayed on the chart using horizontal lines: green for support and red for resistance.
Momentum Indicators:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): A momentum oscillator calculated based on the closing price over the last 14 bars. It is plotted as a yellow line.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): An indicator consisting of the MACD line (blue) and the signal line (orange). It is calculated based on the closing price.
Moving Averages:
SMA 20: A simple moving average over the last 20 bars. It is plotted as a green line.
SMA 50: A simple moving average over the last 50 bars. It is plotted as a red line.
Dynamic Levels Drawing:
Instead of using hline (which does not support dynamic values), the script uses line.new to draw dynamic support and resistance levels. These lines are updated on each bar.

Adaptive Regression Channel [MissouriTim]The Adaptive Regression Channel (ARC) is a technical indicator designed to empower traders with a clear, adaptable, and precise view of market trends and price boundaries. By blending advanced statistical techniques with real-time market data, ARC delivers a comprehensive tool that dynamically adjusts to price action, volatility, volume, and momentum. Whether you’re navigating the fast-paced world of cryptocurrencies, the steady trends of stocks, or the intricate movements of FOREX pairs, ARC provides a robust framework for identifying opportunities and managing risk.
Core Components
1. Color-Coded Regression Line
ARC’s centerpiece is a linear regression line derived from a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) of closing prices. This line adapts its calculation period based on market volatility (via ATR) and is capped between a minimum of 20 bars and a maximum of 1.5 times the user-defined base length (default 100). Visually, it shifts colors to reflect trend direction: green for an upward slope (bullish) and red for a downward slope (bearish), offering an instant snapshot of market sentiment.
2. Dynamic Residual Channels
Surrounding the regression line are upper (red) and lower (green) channels, calculated using the standard deviation of residuals—the difference between actual closing prices and the regression line. This approach ensures the channels precisely track how closely prices follow the trend, rather than relying solely on overall price volatility. The channel width is dynamically adjusted by a multiplier that factors in:
Volatility: Measured through the Average True Range (ATR), widening channels during turbulent markets.
Trend Strength: Based on the regression slope, expanding channels in strong trends and contracting them in consolidation phases.
3. Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA)
Plotted in orange, the VWMA overlays a volume-weighted price trend, emphasizing movements backed by significant trading activity. This complements the regression line, providing additional confirmation of trend validity and potential breakout strength.
4. Scaled RSI Overlay
ARC features a Relative Strength Index (RSI) overlay, plotted in purple and scaled to hover closely around the regression line. This compact display reflects momentum shifts within the trend’s context, keeping RSI visible on the price chart without excessive swings. User-defined overbought (default 70) and oversold (default 30) levels offer reference points for momentum analysis."
Technical Highlights
ARC leverages a volatility-adjusted lookback period, residual-based channel construction, and multi-indicator integration to achieve high accuracy. Its parameters—such as base length, channel width, ATR period, and RSI length—are fully customizable, allowing traders to tailor it to their specific needs.
Why Choose ARC?
ARC stands out for its adaptability and precision. The residual-based channels offer tighter, more relevant support and resistance levels compared to standard volatility measures, while the dynamic adjustments ensure it performs well in both trending and ranging markets. The inclusion of VWMA and scaled RSI adds depth, merging trend, volume, and momentum into a single, cohesive overlay. For traders seeking a versatile, all-in-one indicator, ARC delivers actionable insights with minimal noise.
Best Ways to Use the Adaptive Regression Channel (ARC)
The Adaptive Regression Channel (ARC) is a flexible tool that supports a variety of trading strategies, from trend-following to breakout detection. Below are the most effective ways to use ARC, along with practical tips for maximizing its potential. Adjustments to its settings may be necessary depending on the timeframe (e.g., intraday vs. daily) and the asset being traded (e.g., stocks, FOREX, cryptocurrencies), as each market exhibits unique volatility and behavior.
1. Trend Following
• How to Use: Rely on the regression line’s color to guide your trades. A green line (upward slope) signals a bullish trend—consider entering or holding long positions. A red line (downward slope) indicates a bearish trend—look to short or exit longs.
• Best Practice: Confirm the trend with the VWMA (orange line). Price above the VWMA in a green uptrend strengthens the bullish case; price below in a red downtrend reinforces bearish momentum.
• Adjustment: For short timeframes like 15-minute crypto charts, lower the Base Regression Length (e.g., to 50) for quicker trend detection. For weekly stock charts, increase it (e.g., to 200) to capture broader movements.
2. Channel-Based Trades
• How to Use: Use the upper channel (red) as resistance and the lower channel (green) as support. Buy when the price bounces off the lower channel in an uptrend, and sell or short when it rejects the upper channel in a downtrend.
• Best Practice: Check the scaled RSI (purple line) for momentum cues. A low RSI (e.g., near 30) at the lower channel suggests a stronger buy signal; a high RSI (e.g., near 70) at the upper channel supports a sell.
• Adjustment: In volatile crypto markets, widen the Base Channel Width Coefficient (e.g., to 2.5) to reduce false signals. For stable FOREX pairs (e.g., EUR/USD), a narrower width (e.g., 1.5) may work better.
3. Breakout Detection
• How to Use: Watch for price breaking above the upper channel (bullish breakout) or below the lower channel (bearish breakout). These moves often signal strong momentum shifts.
• Best Practice: Validate breakouts with VWMA position—price above VWMA for bullish breaks, below for bearish—and ensure the regression line’s slope aligns (green for up, red for down).
• Adjustment: For fast-moving assets like crypto on 1-hour charts, shorten ATR Length (e.g., to 7) to make channels more reactive. For stocks on daily charts, keep it at 14 or higher for reliability.
4. Momentum Analysis
• How to Use: The scaled RSI overlay shows momentum relative to the regression line. Rising RSI in a green uptrend confirms bullish strength; falling RSI in a red downtrend supports bearish pressure.
• Best Practice: Look for RSI divergences—e.g., price hitting new highs at the upper channel while RSI flattens or drops could signal an impending reversal.
• Adjustment: Reduce RSI Length (e.g., to 7) for intraday trading in FOREX or crypto to catch short-term momentum shifts. Increase it (e.g., to 21) for longer-term stock trades.
5. Range Trading
• How to Use: When the regression line’s slope is near zero (flat) and channels are tight, ARC indicates a ranging market. Buy near the lower channel and sell near the upper channel, targeting the regression line as the mean price.
• Best Practice: Ensure VWMA hovers close to the regression line to confirm the range-bound state.
• Adjustment: For low-volatility stocks on daily charts, use a moderate Base Regression Length (e.g., 100) and tight Base Channel Width (e.g., 1.5). For choppy crypto markets, test shorter settings.
Optimization Strategies
• Timeframe Customization: Adjust ARC’s parameters to match your trading horizon. Short timeframes (e.g., 1-minute to 1-hour) benefit from lower Base Regression Length (20–50) and ATR Length (7–10) for agility, while longer timeframes (e.g., daily, weekly) favor higher values (100–200 and 14–21) for stability.
• Asset-Specific Tuning:
○ Stocks: Use longer lengths (e.g., 100–200) and moderate widths (e.g., 1.8) for stable equities; tweak ATR Length based on sector volatility (shorter for tech, longer for utilities).
○ FOREX: Set Base Regression Length to 50–100 and Base Channel Width to 1.5–2.0 for smoother trends; adjust RSI Length (e.g., 10–14) based on pair volatility.
○ Crypto: Opt for shorter lengths (e.g., 20–50) and wider widths (e.g., 2.0–3.0) to handle rapid price swings; use a shorter ATR Length (e.g., 7) for quick adaptation.
• Backtesting: Test ARC on historical data for your asset and timeframe to optimize settings. Evaluate how often price respects channels and whether breakouts yield profitable trades.
• Enhancements: Pair ARC with volume surges, key support/resistance levels, or candlestick patterns (e.g., doji at channel edges) for higher-probability setups.
Practical Considerations
ARC’s adaptability makes it suitable for diverse markets, but its performance hinges on proper calibration. Cryptocurrencies, with their high volatility, may require shorter, wider settings to capture rapid moves, while stocks on longer timeframes benefit from broader, smoother configurations. FOREX pairs often fall in between, depending on their inherent volatility. Experiment with the adjustable parameters to align ARC with your trading style and market conditions, ensuring it delivers the precision and reliability you need.
